demands and conforming to all federal, state and local regulations governing the investment of

2.
Safety - Safety ofprincipal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments
will be undertaken in a way that seeks to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall
portfolio.
Liquidity - The investment portfolio will remain sufficiently liquid to meet all operating
requirements that we ‘may reasonably anticipate. This is accomplished by structuring the
portfolio so that securities mature concurrent with cash needs.
Yield - The investment portfolio will be designed with the objective of attaining a market
rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles. Return on investment is of
secondary importance compared with the safety and liquidity objectives described above.
Standards of Care
Prudence - The standard of prudence to be used by investment officials will be the ‘prudent
person” standard and will be applied while conducting investment transactions:
“Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing,
which persons of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the management of their
own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their
capital as well as the probable income to be derived.”
Ethics and Conflicts of Interest - Officers and employees involved in the investment
process will refkain from personal business activity that could conflict with the proper
execution and management of the investment program. Employees and invesknent officials
will disclose any material interests in financial institutions with which they conduct business.
1
They will further disclose any personal financialhvestment positions that could be related
to the performance of the investment portfolio. Employees and officers will refrain fiom
undertaking personal investment transactions with the same individual with whom business
is conducted for the City.
Delegation of Authority - Authority to manage the investment program is granted to the
Community Development and Financial Services Director and derived from Minnesota
Statutes 11 8k.02, Investment of Public Funds. The Community Development and Financial
Services Director shall establish written procedures and internal controls for the operation
of the investment program consistent with this investment policy. Procedures should include
references to: safekeeping, investment accounting, repurchase agreements, wire transfer

of service fiom 30 years to 32 years, thus rewarding an individual for a
commitment fiom age 18 to age 50, when the firefighters are eligible to
receive a benefit upon retiring from active duty.

Synopsis
This is a 7 lot single family subdivision located north of Sunnybrook Road. The alignment of the
road in relationship to the western property and its proposed Sunnybrook Cove project layout
with double-fronted lots was a concern at the public hearing on August 3rd. Staff met with both
project developers and determined the best layout for this project and adjacent properties is to
leave the road at the current alignment.
A scenic/conservation easement was recommended by the City Council when this project was reviewed at
the public hearing. After fwther staff review of the proposed grading plan, the necessary grading for rear
yard drainage on lots 5 and 6 does not leave sufficient area for a realistic scenic/conservation easement.
As recommended by the City Council, the Developer's Agreement includes an Exhibit E that the
Developer must record against each lot of the subdivision. The exhibit terms restrict the Developer
fi-om receiving additional building permits if there are outstanding zoning violations. Permits will
be issued once violations are resolved. Prior to any closings, the City must release the terms of
Exhibit E. The attached resolution authorizes the City Manager or his or her designee to release
Exhibit E once the structure on each individual lot has met all City requirements for the issuance of
a Certificate of Occupancy.

in the 1-5 Zoning District; and
Direct Staff to prepare a Developer’s Agreement incorporating Commission and Staff
recommendations (and Council conditions).
Synopsis
This project is an 83,012 square foot office-warehouse building located in the Research Addition off
Flying Cloud Drive (near Starkey Laboratories).
The site is zoned 1-5, and would allow a maximum building footprint of 171,583 sq. ft. of which
85,000 sq. ft. could be office.
Background Information
The project requires the following waivers fiom the City Code as part of the PUD:
Parking setback from 75 feet to 41.75 feet
This will provide the required room for wetland buffers and setbacks.
Increase the allowable office use from 50 -75%
The building meets office standards for exterior materials and landscaping. Traffic generation is
less than if the site was developed according to code for an industrial use.
Tree replacement and landscaping requires a total of 1,20 1 caliper inches. Due to the amount of land
needed for wetland buffer and wetland replacement, it is not possible to fit all of the trees on site.
The developer is proposing offsite replacement for 503 inches. The project meets the requirements of
the pending wetland ordinance. The proponent will need to work with City, 1-494 Corridor
Commission, and Southwest Metro Transit Commission to implement TDM program as part of the
project approval.
The Planning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the project at its December 13, 1999
meeting. The Parks, Recreation, and Natural Resources Commission voted 5-0 to approve the
project at the December 20, 1999, with the recommendation that offsite tree replacement be placed
on other CSM projects, in particular, the Outlot A associated with the Home Depot project as one
option.

Staff Report CSM Starkev Office
December 10,1999
BACKGROUND
The site is currently guided industrial. The site is 1-5 Industrial.
SITE PLAN, COMMERCIAL, OFFICE, AND INDUSTRIAL
The site plan shows the construction of a 83,013 square foot building. The base area ratio for the
proposed building is .08. The City code permits up to a .30 base area ratio. The floor area ratio
is .08. The City code permits up to a .50 floor area ratio.
The building meets the setback requirements of the 1-5 zoning district.
The amount of parking required is 348 spaces. The plan meets this requirement.
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT WAIVERS
The project requires the following waivers fi-om the city Code.
Parking setback from 75 feet to 41.75 feet.
This is a reasonable waiver in order to provide the required room for wetland buffers and
setbacks.
0 Increase in allowable office use from 50 -75%
This is a reasonable waiver. The building meets office standards for exterior materials and
landscaping. Traffic generation is less than if the site was developed according to code for
an industrial use.
GRADING AND TREE LOSS
There are 1,540 diameter inches of significant trees on site. The trees are primarily cottonwood
and scattered throughout the site. Tree loss is 855 inches or 55%. Tree replacement is 682
inches.
ARCHITECTURE
The buildings meet the exterior material requirements. Mechanical equipment will be screened
by a parapet wall.
LANDSCAPING
The amount of landscaping required is based on caliper inches according to building size and
tree replacement. The amount of caliper inches required is 519 inches. The plan meets this
requirement. The amount of tree replacement required is 681 inches. Due to the amount of land
needed for wetland buffer and wetland replacement, it is not possible to fit all of the replacement
trees on site. The developer is proposing offsite replacement for 503 inches.
Staff Report CSM Starkey Office
December 10,1999
WETLANDS
There are four wetlands (45,852 SF) on the property. Three are low quality and one is moderate
quality. A portion of the low quality wetlands will be filled and replaced with moderate quality
wetlands. The existing moderate quality wetland will be expanded and upgraded to a wooded
wetland. Wooded moderate quality wetlands are limited in the City and it is important to
expand them when possible.
The project meets the requirements of the pending wetland ordinance.
UTILITIES AND DRAINAGE
Sewer and water is available on site.
TRAVEL DEMAND MANAGEMENT
Since 1998, the City Council has required new office projects to adopt Travel Demand
Management (TDM) plans to reduce peak hour traffic. Other developments such as Best Buy,
Crosstown Circle Center, Flagship Corporate Center and Oakview Office have developed TDM
plans.
Some ways in which TDM can have the greatest impact on reducing peak hour capacity
problems include the following:
e Staggered work hours, or flextime.
Car pools and Van pools, including working with other corporations. e
e Telecommuting
e Establishing a TDM coordinator
e Park and Ride lots
e Transit services
The proponent will need to work with City, 1-494 Corridor Commission, and Southwest Metro
Transit Commission to implement TDM program as part of the project approval.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS

Mark Dahlin, CSM Corporation, gave a brief overview of the project, which consists of an 83,000
s.f. office showroom site. The applicant had worked with Staff to develop a plan that would work
on the property.
Sandstad requested additional information regarding the expansion and upgrading of the moderate
quality wetlands to a wooded wetland. Jesse Symynkywicz, ROK Systems, indicated wooded
wetlands along the north of the property were being preserved and cottonwood trees were being
added.
Clinton asked if the tree loss was actually 55%. Jesse Symynkywicz responded that locating the
building and parking on the site had been difficult due to the slope of the property. The amount of
land needed for wetland buffer and wetland replacement made it impossible to replace all the trees
and adding trees at a park or other location was being proposed.
Foote asked if the applicant was prepared to participate in the Travel Demand Management plans.
Dahlin indicated they would be working towards implementing a TDM program.
Franzen reported he had spoken with the City Forester regarding the tree loss. It was difficult to
save a lot of the trees on the property due to their location. In trying to strike a balance between
tree and wetland preservation, Staff had made the decision that the wetlands were more important
than the tree loss. Parking setback waiver fiom 75 ft. to 41.75 ft. was recommended due to the
required space needed for wetland buffers and setbacks. Staff recommends approval based upon
recommendations contained in the Staff Report of December 10, 1999.
MOTION: Habicht moved, seconded by Clinton, to close the public hearing. Motion carried 5-0.
Habicht indicated preserving the wetland was a good tradeoff for the tree loss and supported the
project.
MOTION: Habicht moved, seconded by Clinton, to recommend to the City Council approval of

1999. Motion carried 5-0.
E. WETLAND ORDINANCE REVIEW.
Leslie Stovring, Environmental Coordinator, provided a detailed description of the proposed
wetland ordinance. The proposed ordinance would establish standards for protection of wetlands
including establishment of buffers based on the quality of the wetland affected by any proposed
development, avoidance of water level fluctuations to the wetland during storm and snow melt
runoff events based on the quality of the wetland, placement of permanent monuments on the
wetland buffer edge, water quality testing for exceptional wetlands, reseeding or replanting of
wetland buffers if disturbed, additional wetland documentation and description of boundaries. The
City's Wetland Inventory had classified each wetland's quality as excellent, high, moderate or low.
The task force had proposed required buffer widths of 25 ft. for low and moderate quality wetlands
and 50 ft. for high and exceptional quality wetlands, as well as an additional 15 ft. setback from the
buffer to any structure.
Sandstad indicated the 15 ft. setback was rather close to the wetland and asked how carefully that
distance had been reviewed. Stovring responded that it gave developers some direction. No
concrete or parking could be placed that close just sod. Sandstad asked if there was a requirement
to have 4-8 ft. of transititional planting or mow up to the wetland. Stovring indicated those
guidelines were still being developed. Franzen related that projects would still be reviewed
individually and evaluated on the total project. Review would be no different from how the
Planning Commission evaluates buffer zones.
Franzen related the proposed ordinance had been reviewed and applied to projects which had been
considered during the past few years. Their conclusion was compliance would not be a burden on
property owners or developers.
MOTION: Sandstad moved, seconded by Lewis, to close the public hearing. Motion carried 5-0.
MOTION: Sandstad moved, seconded by Habicht, to recommend to the City Council approval of
the proposed Wetland Ordinance. Motion carried 5-0.
PUBLIC MEETING
MEMBERS' REPORTS

From: Stuart A. Fox, ?tr- anager Parks and Natural Resources
Date: December 15, 1999
Subject: Supplemental Staff Report to the December 10, 1999 City Planners Report
for CSM Starkey Office Center
BACKGROUND:
This project is located along Flying Cloud Drive adjacent to Physical Electronics and Starkey
Labs. The site is 13.13 acres in size and is guided for industrial development.
The proposed project includes construction of an 83,000 square building with 348 parking
spaces.
NATURAL RESOURCE ISSUES:
Tree LossLandscaping
The majority of the trees on this site are cottonwood. There is a total of 1,540 diameter inches of
trees as defined as sigdicant by City Code. The tree loss is 855 diameter inches or 55%.
Mitigation for this tree loss is 682 caliper inches.
Thirty-nine trees will be removed due to construction, two of which are oaks and the remaining
cottonwood trees. The average age of the cottonwood trees being removed is approximately 30
years. This area has grown up as a monoculture of cottonwood trees over the last many years
due to the wet soil conditions.
The landscaping plan that has been submitted indicates that 182 trees are being planted on this
site. This totals 519 caliper inches of landscaping material and is divided between deciduous
trees coniferous material. The majority of trees being planted on this site are deciduous.
Between trees required for screening and landscaping and tree loss mitigation, the plan is short
503 caliper inches of material. The developer has proposed planting the trees off site on City
property or other property owned by CSM. The proposed landscape plan plants nearly five trees
for each tree that is being removed for conskction.

Wetlands
There are four wetland areas on this site totaling 1.05 acres. Grading will impact two of the
wetland areas and mitigation for grading is proposed on site. Two of the wetland areas will be
increased in size to provided mitigation for wetland fill.
This project does meet the requirements of the pending City. Wetland Ordinance.
NURP Pond
A storm water pond is proposed in the southwest corner of this project. This pond would receive
water fiom the building roof and parking lot areas and provide sedimentation prior to discharge
into the wetland immediately east of the proposed pond site. The developer needs approval €torn
the' City Engineering Department ' and Watershed District prior to construction of this NURP
pond.
n RECOMMENDATION

This project was reviewed at the December 13, 1999 Planning Commission meeting and was
approved on a 6-0 vote. Staff would recommend approval of the project based on the
information contained in the December 10, 1999 Staff Report by the City Planner and
supplemental information within this report.

Stu Fox explained that a pine plantation was planted on the property in the early 1970’s. The
trees were planted five-foot on center, and because of the spacing, many are not in the best of
health. This plantation was evaluated by Kathyrn Fernholtz of Westwood Engineering. As a
result of this and the cities’ evaluation, tree loss would be 90%, or 2,791 inches. It is
recommended that the pine plantation be discounted, and that the other significant trees be
used as a basis for tree loss calculations. This results in 30% tree loss, with replacement of
334 caliper inches of landscape material.
The property to the north is undeveloped, and there will be a temporary cul-de-sac at the end
of Coldstream Lane to connect with future development. The present five-foot sidewalk
should be continued so to link up to the development on the north.
Cornielle asked how the walking paths would be connected so residents could cross Hwy
212. Fox said there are signals for crossing #212 at the entrance to the Vo-tech. There is a
proposed hture trail along the creek under the #212 bridge, which will connect, to
Sunnybrook Road. Improvements are needed to better control the creek flow.
Koenig asked about the quality of the wetlands on the west side of the development, and how
they will be protected. Fox said there would be a wetland buffer that meets the city code.
Koenig asked if the 334 replacement trees would be deciduous. Fox explained there would be
a mix of trees. Seven new trees will be planted to replace each one tree removed,
discounting the pine plantation. The city is accepting the forestry report, due to the poor
condition of the trees in the pine plantation. Koenig was concerned about the exception
made in this case, and the precedent set.
Corneille moved to accept the Sunnybrook Cove development as recommended in the
November 19, 1999, staff report. Wilson seconded. Approved 5-0.
B. - CSM STARKEY OFFICE CENTER
The proposed development is located in the Golden Triangle’along old Flying Cloud Drive
adjacent to Starkey Labs. The project consists of an 83,000 square foot building with 348
parking spaces located on 13.13 acres.
Jesse Symyskzwicz of RLK Civil Engineers was present to discuss wetland issues. The
wetlands in the center of the site will be removed. Mitigation will occur by expanding the
wetland on the south side. Replacement of wetlands will be on a one-to-one ratio.
Monuments will mark the wetland areas. Buffers consist of conservation easements, and will
be seeded, not sod. About 50% of the trees will be saved. The east side will have five-foot
walls, which will protect the tree roots. There will be a 30-foot parking setback on the west
side.

Fox reported there are 1,540 inches of sigmficant trees. Tree loss is 855 diameter inches, or
55%. Wetland species will be planted around the ponds. Five trees will be planted for each
one lost. Some tree mitigation will be on the Starkey property.
Brown is concerned about the parking setback and the increase in office space. Fox said the
project is guided for industrial development and consistent with adjacent property usage.
Koenig questioned the amount of wetland being filled. About one half acre, or 44% of the
wetland will be removed. Also, what type of landscaping is included in a “wooded wetland”.
Fox said mitigation is based on current conditions, Tree mitigation will include species that
can survive water, including shrubs, cottonwoods, tamaracks, and river birch. Mitigation
will also include putting trees on other sites, which may include city property and boulevards.
In this case, the city would take the cash and do the planting.
Koenig asked if the conservation easement is a part of the developer’s agreement, which
would exclude any buildings or grading. Jacobson asked how the easement would be
marked, where would the monuments be placed, and what type of signage or material would
be used for the markers. Fox said the monument markers are permanent and the requirements
are in the proposed City Wetland Ordinance.

Synopsis
This project is the subdivision of 2 single-family lots into 3 single-family lots. The site is located
at 8802 and 8804 Knollwood Drive.
Background Information
The Planning Commission voted 6-0 to recommend denial of the project at its November 22,
1999 meeting for the reasons stated below:
1. The existing large lots are a density transfer for the existing Ridgewood Cluster lots and
provide a transition between the cluster lots and the large lots to the south.
2. The subdivision is inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood and the approved
Planned Unit Development.
3. The existing lots have a lot frontage waiver from Knollwood Drive.
4. When the existing lots were subdivided, access from the south was not anticipated. Street
fiontage to the south was created by the Jenkins and Starnvood Additions.
5. The plan did not justify the requested waivers.
6. High percentage of tree loss.

Staff Report
Homeland Addition
November 19,1999
BACKGROUND
The Comprehensive Guide Plan shows this property as medium density residential for up
to 10 units per acre. Surrounding land to the west, south, and southeast is guided low
density. Land use to the north and northeast is guided medium density.
The property is currently zoned R1-13.5. Surrounding land is zoned R1-13.5.
The property is part of the original Centex Midwest Inc. Addition known as Ridgewood
West Planned Unit Development (1978.) This PUD included approximately 88 acres and
176 single-family homes.
Centex amended the PUD in 1982 (Rzdgewood West Two). This 64-acre PUD included
168 single family cluster homes and 168 Condominiums at a density of 5.29 units per
acre. There was a guide plan change from Low Density to Medium Density. The overall
density including Ridgewood West and Ridgewood West 2nd Addition is 3.2 units per
acre.
PRELIMINARY PLAT
The proposal is to subdivide two existing lots into three lots. The lot sizes meet the
minimum requirements of the R1-13.5 zoning district. Proposed lot 3 does not meet the
minimum lot width of 85' on a public right or way or the minimum lot with of 55' on a
cul-de-sac.
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT WAIVER
The plan requires a street frontage waiver from 85 feet to 25.69 feet for proposed lot 3.
The existing lots 11 and 12 were approved with frontage on Knollwood Drive to the
north in 1978. A waiver was granted for street frontage from 55 feet to 45 feet for each
lot. This waiver would need to be carried over with the proposed plat. There originally
was no access to the south since the proposed lots abutted undeveloped land. When the
Stamvood and Jenkins additions were approved in 1987, existing lot 11 attained 16 feet
of frontage and exiting lot 12 attained 9.69 feet of frontage on a public right of way.
Any property owner abutting a city right of way can use the adjoining street for access,
provided the driveway can be constructed to City Code requirements.
The City is not obligated to grant a waiver for street fi-ontage for the proposed third lot.
Staff Report
Horneland Addition
November 19,1999
Historically the City has granted waivers for lot frontage when:
0
0
The waiver results in a better environmental plan for saving trees, slopes, and
wetlands.
The waiver does not increase the density beyond what would develop if the plan
meets all code requirements.
Reasons to consider the waiver are:
0
0
0
The lot size is consistent with the area. The lot sizes range fiom 12,000 to 39,200
with an average lot size of 18,000.
The proposed lot meets setback requirements.
The subdivision will not change the character of the neighborhood.
Reasons for not considering the waiver are:
0 The existing large lots are a density transfer for the existing Ridgewood Cluster lots
and provide a transition between the cluster lots and the large lots to the south.
0 The subdivision is inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood and the
approved Planned Unit Development.
The existing lots have a lot frontage waiver from Knollwood Drive.
0 When the existing lots were subdivided, access fi-om the south was not anticipated.
Street frontage to the south was created by the Jenkins and Stmood Additions.
GRADING AND TREE LOSS
Grading for the property will be only for the new house pad on proposed lot 3.
A total of 92 diameter inches of significant trees are on the property. Tree loss is
calculated at 60 diameter inches, or 65%. The average tree loss for residential
development is 30%. Tree replacement is 52 caliper inches or 17 trees. The plan
indicated 15 trees.
RECOMMENDATION
Alternate One
If the Planning Commission is comfortable with the street frontage waiver and
subdivision, one option would be to recommend approval of a Planned Unit Development
Concept on 1.32 acres to the Ridgewood West Planned Unit Development, Planned Unit
Development District Review with waivers on 1.32 acres, Zonihg District Amendment in
the R1-13.5 on 1.32 acres, and Preliminary Plat of 1.32 acres into 3 single-family lots
based on plans dated October 4,1999, the Staff Report dated November 19, 1999, and the
following conditions:
Staff Report
Homeland Addition
November 19,1999
1. Prior to City Council Review, the proponent shall submit a tree replacement plan
for 52 caliper inches of tree replacement.
2. Prior to release of the final plat, the proponent shall submit a detailed storm water
runoff, utility and erosion control plans for review by the City Engineer.
3. Prior to grading or any construction on the property, the proponent shall notify the
City Engineer , Watershed District, and City Forester. Construction fencing must
be in place and approved by the City Forester prior to grading and tree removal.
4. Prior to Building Permit issuance, the proponent shall pay the Cash Park Fee and
submit a tree replacement bond for review.
5. Planned Unit Development waiver is granted for lot frontage from 85 feet to
25.69 feet.
Alternative Two
If the Planning Commission were not comfortable with the lot frontage waiver and
subdivision as proposed, then one option would be to recommend denial of the project for
the following reasons:
0
0
0
0
The existing large lots are a density transfer for the existing Ridgewood Cluster lots
and provide a transition between the cluster lots and the large lots to the south.
The subdivision is inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood and the
approved Planned Unit Development.
The existing lots have a lot frontage waiver.
When the existing lots were subdivided access was from the south was not
anticipated. Street frontage to the south was created by the Jenkins and Starnvood
Additions.
Staff recommends Alternative Two.

NOVEMBER 22,1999
B. HORNELAND ADDITION by Liv Homeland, Request for Planned Unit Development
Concept Amendment on 1.32 acres to the Ridgewood PUD, Planned Unit Development District
Review on 1.32 acres with waivers, Zoning District Amendment within the R1-13.5 Zoning District
on 1.32 acres, and Preliminary Plat on 1.32 acres into 3 lots. Location: 8802 and 8802 Knollwood
Drive.
Liv Homeland, owner of the property, presented a brief overview of the proposed plan She
indicated her house was the first one built in the Addition and development of the Addition had
caused a loss of the panoramic view of the lake. The proposed new house would be appropriate for
the Addition. Several designs had been considered due to the severe topography of the property.
An attempt had been made to retain as many trees as possible in the proposed plan. Would also add
replacement trees as recommended by the City. She indicated attempts had been made to meet with
neighbors to review the proposed plan and address their concerns.
Clinton asked for clarification with respect to tree loss on the south side of the property. Homeland
responded trees would be added. The trees being removed were currently located where the
proposed house would be constructed and they would be transplanted.
Doug Stahl, Engineer with Schell & Madson, provided an overview of the location of the proposed
house on the lot. Tree loss would be mainly in the area of the new house. The applicant was
willing to replace trees however the City deemed adequate. Different locations for the house had
been reviewed and the proposed location afforded the least disruption to the property.
Franzen related that in the past, waivers for lot frontage had been considered if it resulted in a better
environmental plan for saving tress, slopes and wetlands and it did not increase the density beyond
what would develop if the plan met all code requirements. He indicated the lot size would be
consistent with the area, it met setback requirements and the subdivision of the lot would not
change the character of the neighborhood. However, reasons to not consider the waiver were the
subdivision of the lot was inconsistent with the character of the neighborhood and the approved
Planned Unit Development, the existing lots had a lot frontage waiver from Knollwood Drive,
access from the south had not been anticipated when the existing lots were originally subdivided,
and the existing large lots were a density transfer for the existing Ridgewood Cluster lots. He
indicated Staff had proposed two options for consideration with respect to granting or denying the
street frontage waiver from 85 ft. to 25.69 ft. for the proposed third lot as set forth in the Staff
Report dated November 19, 1999. The Staff recommended denying the proposed project as set
forth in Alternate Two of the Staff Report.
Clinton asked if a similar situation had existed in the Kramer project, which had been a long lot that
had been subdivided and lot front waivers requested. Franzen responded he did not know. The
only subdivision of lots that had a house was the Karmel Addition, which was a 27,000 s.f. lot that
had been divided in half but had met all the requirements for setbacks and was approved.
Karen Sell, 8796 Flesher Circle, indicated Homeland had spoken to neighbors about the project and
understood the reasons for the proposed project. Although the lot seemed to meet the minimum
size requirement, much of the land was unbuildable and the house would be wedged into the lot
with very little fiont and back yards. She expressed concerned with proposed driveway since it
intersected with her private driveway which was on a very steep grade. Seeing vehicles exiting the
driveway would be a problem and a safety concern. Asked that the proposed plan be denied.
PLANNDTG COMMISSIONMINUTES

NOVEMBER 22,1999
Chris Henkemis, 8812 Flesher Circle, indicated the proposed house would be built next to her
property. Concerned about the amount of trees being removed and potential m-off. Also, with the
woods removed, concerned the loss would devalue the property.
Larry Berger, 8780 Flesher Circle, was concerned that the subdivision of the lots and placing the
house on the proposed third lot did not conform to the neighborhood and the City.
Habicht stated the plan was a nice, creative plan and did not have an issue with the lot size or
quality of the house. He indicated when a waiver was requested, there was typically a trade-off for
the City or there was a real hardship and in this instance, there was neither.
Lewis stated making a change to the development at this late date would set a very dangerous
precedent that would have developers requesting changes from the original of the plan. Also, a
65% tree loss was very significant. Unless there was an overwhelming reason, the City would not
approve the plan.
Sandstad indicated the proposed plan did not justify the requested waivers and he could not support
the plan.
Clinton agreed with Habicht that it was a creative plan. He had walked the neighborhood and the
proposed site and was concerned by the request for waivers and the amount of tree loss.
Alexander indicated the plan was a good plan and believed it was not as intrusive as some of the
property owners in the addition had conveyed. However, the City has zoning laws which had to be
adhered to and did not believe the Commission could approve a variance and be fair to the current
zoning laws.
Foote voiced his agreement with the comments of the other Commissioners. The proposed plan did
not support the requested waivers.
MOTION: Clinton moved, seconded by Alexander, to close the public hearing. Motion carried
6-9.
MOTION: Lewis moved, seconded by Habicht, to deny the request for Planned Unit Development
Concept Amendment on 1.32 acres to the Ridgewood PUD, Planned Unit Development District

on 1.32 acres, and Preliminary Plat on 1.32 acres into 3 lots.

Synopsis
The Comprehensive Wetland Protection & Management Plan (Wetland Plan) was completed to
develop a strategy for ranking and assigning value to known wetlands and water bodies (478
wetlands, 15 lakes and 44 stormwater basins) and establishing development review guidelines,
priorities for wetland protection / management projects and identifying potential educational
programs. The plan also compares wetland locations with our open space areas to determine which
wetlands would already be protected by existing parks or easements. The Plan goals and strategies
were established through a working Task Force composed of City staff, resident volunteers, the
Environmental & Waste Management Commission members and State and County agency staff.
The Wetland Plan must be adopted by Ordinance to qual@ for approval by the Board of Water and
Soil Resources as a “Wetland Conservation Act approved plan”.
Background
Proposed Ordinance
Purpose of the Proposed Ordinance
The purpose of the proposed ordinance is to promote the general health, safety and welfare of its
residents by both conserving and protecting wetlands. The intent of the ordinance is to avoid the
alteration and destruction of wetlands and their associated buffer strips. Through the ordinance, the
City can balance the need to preserve and protect natural resources while considering the rights of
property owners.

Standards for the Protection of Wetlands
Wetlands and buffers provide important habitats that support a diversity of plant and animal species.
In addition, wetlands and buffers aid in improving water quality by recharging groundwater,
preventing soil erosion, and retaining and treating nutrients, toxicants and sediments within the
buffer and wetland, thus avoiding and minimizing contamination and eutrophication of water
features. Healthy wetland and buffer habitats will work to reduce pollution and help in reducing the
future costs associated with.trying to restore aquatic systems impacted by pollution. Buffers will
also reduce human disturbances to wetlands by providing a visual and physical transition fiom
surrounding yards.
Summary of the Proposed Ordinance
The proposed Ordinance is for establishment of standards for protection of wetlands through the
addition of Section 11.51 to the City Code. Ths includes standards for establishment of buffers
based on the quality of the wetland affected by any proposed development. The City's Wetland
Inventory classifies each wetland's quality as excellent, high, moderate or low. The required buffer
widths would be 25 feet for low and moderate quality wetlands and 50 feet for high and exceptional
quality wetlands. There would be an additional 15-foot setback fi-om the buffer to any structure.
Additional requirements include standards for avoidance of water level fluctuations to the wetland
during storm and snow-melt runoff events based on the quality of the wetland; placement of
permanent monuments on the wetland buffer edge; water quality testing for exceptional wetlands;
reseeding or replanting of wetland buffers if disturbed; and provision of documentation of the
wetland identification, delineation and mitigation activities dwing the development review process.

OTHER THINGS CONTAIN PENALTY PROVISIONS.
SECTION 11.51. STANDARDS FOR THE PROTECTION OF WETLANDS
Subd. 1. Preamble
This ordinance hereby incorporates by reference the Wetlands Conservation Act m. Stat. 103G.221
et seq. (herein after referred to as the WCA)] and any future amendments adopted by the legislature.
All wetlands, as defined in Section 1 1.5 1, Subd. 3 of this ordinance, including those governed by the
Department of Natural Resources, are covered by this Ordinance. In unique situations where the
physical characteristics of a specific parcel of land preclude the strict enforcement of these regulations,
alternatives to these standards are established in Section 11.51, Subd. 7 of this code.
Subd. 2. Purpose
Through the adoption and enforcement of this Section, the City shall promote the general health, safety,
and welfare of its residents by both conserving and protecting wetlands and requiring sound
management practices as provided for in the WCA when development occurs in the vicinity of
wetlands. It is the intent of this ordinance to avoid the alteration and destruction of wetlands. Through
the implementation of this Section, the City seeks to accomplish the following purposes:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Balance the need to preserve and protect natural resources and systems with both the rights of
private property owners and the need to support the efficient use of developable land within the
City;
Promote water quality by maintaining the ability of wetlands to recharge ground water and receive
the discharge of ground water, to prevent soil erosion, and to retain sediment, nutrients and
toxicants in wetland buffer strip areas before it discharges into community wetlands, lakes and
streams, thus avoiding the contamination and eutrophication of these water features;
Reduce human disturbances to wetlands by providing a visual and physical transition fiom
surrounding yards; and
Provide wildlife habitat and thereby support the maintenance of diversity of both plant and animal
species within the City.

Pond Locations” and is part of the Comprehensive Wetland Protection & Management Plan
(1999) prepared by the City. The City Wetland Map may be amended fiom time to time as
wetland, lake and stormwater pond conditions change. The City map adopted by this ordinance
shall be prima facie evidence of the location and classification of a wetland.
“Hydroperiod” - The extent and duration of inundation andor saturation of wetland systems.
‘‘MbRAM“ - The Minnesota Routine Assessment Methodology (MinIUM) as referenced in
Minnesota Rules 8420.0540, Subpart lO(G). MinRAM is a field tool used to assess wetland
functions on a qualitative basis. Functions include floristic diversity and integrity; wildlife
habitat; water quality protection; flood & stonnwater attenuation; recreation, aesthetics, education
& science; fishery habitat; ’shoreline protection; groundwater interaction; and commercial uses.
“NURP Pond” - A stormwater pond constructed to meet National Urban Runoff Program
requirements.
“Public Value Credit (PVC)” - Wetland replacement credit that can only be used for the portion
of wetland replacement requiring &-eater than a 1: 1 ratio of wetland fill to wetland replacement.
“Setback” - The minimum horizontal distance between a structure and the nearest edge of the
wetland buffer strip.
“Structure” - A structure would include but is not limited to a sewage treatment system, building,
fence, patio, deck or other structure as defined in Section 11.02.
“Vegetation, Native” - Plant species indigenous to or naturalized to the State of Minnesota,
excluding noxious weeds as defined and designated pursuant to the “Minnesota noxious weed
law”, Minnesota Statutes, Sections 18.76-18.88, as amended fiom time to time.
“Wetland” - Lands transitional between terrestrial and aquatic systems where the water table is
usually at or near the surface or the land is covered by shallow water. For purposes of this
definition, wetlands must:
have a predominance of hydric soils;
be inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a fiequency and duration sufficient
to support a prevalence of hydrophytic vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil a
conditions; and
under normal circumstances support a prevalence of hydrophytic vegetation.
“Wetland Buffer Strip” - An area of vegetated ground cover around the perimeter of a wetland
that, either in its natural condition or through intervention, has the characteristics of a Buffer as
defined in Section 1 1.02,7, “Buffer”.
“Wetlands, Exceptional Quality” - Exceptional Quality wetlands have an exceptional floristic
diversity and integrity function, based on the results of MinRAM. They contain an abundance
of different plant species with dominance evenly spread among several species. Such wetlands
may support some rare or unusual plant species. Invasive or exotic plant species are either absent
or limited to small areas where some disturbance has occurred. These wetlands exhibit no
evidence of significant man-induced water level fluctuation.
‘Wetlands, High Qualily” - High quality wetlands have a high floristic diversity and integrity
function, based on the results of MinRAM , and are still generally in their natural state. They tend
to show less evidence of adverse effects of surrounding land uses. Exotic and invasive plant

species may be present and species dominance may not be evenly disb5buted among several
species. There tends to be little evidence of water level fluctuation due to storms and their
shorelines are stable with little evidence of erosion. They show little if any evidence of human
influences resulting in higher levels of species diversity, wildlife habitat and ecological stability.
‘Wetlands, Moderate Quality” - Moderate quality wetlands have a moderate floristic diversity and
integrity function, based on the results of MinRAM . They have a slightly higher number of plant
species present than low quality wetlands, often with small pockets of indigenous species within
larger areas dominated by invasive or exotic species. Their relatively greater species diversity
results in slightly better wildlife habitat. They exhibit evidence of relatively less fluctuation in
water level in response to storms and less evidence of shoreline erosion than low quality wetlands.
They also exhibit relatively less evidence of human influences and therefore, tend to be of a
higher aesthetic quality than low quality wetlands.
“Wetlands, Low Quality,’ - Wetlands included in this category have a low floristic diversity and
integrity function, based on MinRAM , and have been substantially altered by agricultural or urban
development that caused over-nitrification, soil erosion, sedimentation and water quality
degradation. As a result of these factors these wetlands exhibit low levels of plant species
diversity; overcrowding and dominance of such invasive species as reed canary grass and purple
loosestrife; and a related reduction in the quality of wildlife habitat. These wetlands may also tend
to exhibit extreme water level fluctuations in response to storms and show evidence of shoreline
erosion. These wetlands do provide for water quality and serve an important role in protecting
water quality downstream.
“Wildlife Habitat” - Plant communities that support wildlife in a natural, undomesticated state.
“Yard’7 - That portion of a lot not occupied by a structure.
“Yard-Front” - A yard extending across the fiont of the lot between the side lines of the lot and
lying between the fkont line of the lot and the nearest line of a building. On all lots containing or
adjacent to all or a portion of a wetland, the fkont yard shall be the minimum horizontal distance
between the nearest edge of the wetland buffer strip and the main building.
“Yard-Rear” - An open space unoccupied except for accessory buildings on the same lot with a
building between the rear lines of the building and the rear line of the lot, for the full width of the
lot. On all lots containing or adjacent to all or a portion of a wetland, the rear yard shall be the
minimum distance between the nearest edge of the wetland buffer strip and the main building or
the permitted projections,
“Yard-Side” - An open unoccupied space on the same lot with a building between the building
and the side lot line, and extending Ii-om the fkont lot line to the furthest extent of the rear lot line.
On all lots containing or adjacent to all or portion of a wetland, the side yard is between the
nearest edge of the wetland buffer strip ’and the main building.
Subd. 4. General Provisions - Identification, Delineation, Mitigation, Testing and Reporting
Requirements.
A. This ordinance shall apply to all lands containing wetlands and lands within the setback and
wetland buffer strips required by this ordinance. Wetlands shall be subject to the requirements
established herein, as well as restrictions and requirements established by other applicable
Federal, State, and City ordinances and regulations. These wetland protection regulations shall
not be construed to allow anything otherwise prohibited in the zoning district where the wetland
Page 3
6
Draft
is located. This Section establishes four wetland classifications as defined in Section 11.51, Subd.
3 of this Ordinance; Exceptional Quality, High Quality, Moderate Quality, and Low Quality.
The presence or absence of a wetland on the City Wetland Map does not represent a definitive
determination as to whether a wetland covered by this ordinance is or is not present. Wetlands
that are identified during site specific delineation activities but do not appear on the City Wetland
Map are still subject to the provisions of the Ordinance. It is the responsibility of the Applicant
to determine whether a wetland exists on a subject property or within the applicable setback
distances on an adjacent property.
It is the responsibility of the Applicant to delineate the exact wetland boundary for documented
wetlands on the subject property. An Applicant shall not be required to delineate wetlands on
adjacent property. However, an Applicant shall be required to review available information,
including but not limited to the City Wetland Map, County Soil Survey Map, U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service Wetland Maps, and visual information such as the presence of wetland
vegetation and hydrologic evidence which can be viewed fiom the subject property, to estimate
the wetland boundary.
B.
C. Written documentation identifying the presence or absence of wetlands on the property, including
any wetland delineation report and wetland buffer strip vegetation evaluation, must be provided
to the City by the Applicant with the Land Development Application. It is the responsibility of
the Applicant to contact the City to provide a wetland or water body identification number and
any information regarding the documented wetland, including any existing Minnesota Routine
Assessment Methodology (MinRAM) information, for inclusion in any documentation provided
by the Applicant. All wetland and wetland buffer strip identifications and delineation reports
must be provided to the City for evaluation during development review.
A MinRAM fictional assessment (Version 1 .O or newer) must be completed for wetlands which
are not identified on the City Wetland Map or for wetlands €or which the Applicant’s wetland
information is significantly different in function, size or position &om the City’s assessment. The
hctional assessment must be submitted to the City with the wetland delineation report.
Water quality testing results must be provided by the Applicant for any proposed development
involving a wetland buffer strip of less than 100 feet for wetlands of exceptional quality which
contain any standing water during the growing season. One water sample must be collected &om
the surface water (within the upper 12 inches of water) and analyzed by an accredited laboratory
for pH, conductivity, total phosphorus, soluble reactive phosphorus, total dissolved solids, total
suspended solids and chlorides. The water quality testing results must be submitted to the City
with the wetland delineation report.
For projects with wetland fill or drain impacts, the Applicant must provide written documentation
of the avoidance and minimization efforts used to avoid or minimize wetland fill or drain impacts
to the City with the Land Development Application. Conceptual wetland replacement plans for
any proposed impacts that would require replacement under WCA or U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers regulatory programs must also be provided to the City at this time. It is the
responsibility of the Applicant to contact the City to obtain a wetland identification number for
use in the replacement plan report for any replacement wetlands constructed within the City.
If the Applicant disputes whether a wetland exists or its classification, the Applicant has the
burden to supply detailed information supporting the Applicant’s assertion. This would include,
but is not limited to, historical aerial photography, topographic, hydrologic, floristic andor soil

data deemed necessary by the City or Local Governmental Unit (LGU) under the WCA to
determine the jurisdictional status of the wetland, its exact boundary and its classification.
Wetland and wetland buffer strip identifications and delineation reports supplied by the Applicant
shall be prepared by a qualified wetland delineator in accordance with current state and federal
regulations. Wetland delineators must satisfy all certification requirements that are established
by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources or,
in the absence of such certification, are determined by the Ciiy Manager to be a qualified wetland
delineator.

D. Where a wetland buffer strip is required, the Applicant shall:
E.
(i) Before the City releases the final plat or, if there is no plat approval involved, the first
building permit for the entire subject property, submit to the City Manager and receive the
City Manager's approval of a conservation easement for protection of the approved wetland
buffer strip. The easement must describe the boundaries of the wetland and wetland b~er
strips, monuments and monument locations and prohibit any building, paving, mowing,
introduction of non-native vegetation, cutting, filling, dumping, yard waste disposal,
fertilizer application or removal of the wetland buffer strip monuments within the wetland
buffer strip or the wetland.
(ii) Before the City releases the first building permit for the entire subject property,
(a)
(b)
.
(c)
submit evidence to the City Manager that the approved easement document has been
recorded in the Hennepin County Recorder'sRegistrar of Titles' office,
submit a duplicate original of the easement document executed and acknowledged and
otherwise in form and substance acceptable for filing with the Hennepin County
RecorderRegistrar of Titles office and,
install the wetland monumentation required by Section 1 1.5 1, Subdivision 8 of this
ordinance.
All open areas of a site not occupied by building, parking, driving areas, storage or wetland buffer
strip shall be sodded or seeded and mulched. All open areas within the wetland buffer strip shall
be seeded andor planted in accordance with Subdivision 9 (C). All sodding, seeding or planting
must be completed prior to removal of any erosion control. If construction is completed after the
end of the growing season, erosion control shall be left in place and all disturbed areas shall be
mulched to protect these areas over the winter season. Variances for sod outside of the wetland
beer strip areas, in accordance with City Code Section 9.71 shall be considered on a case by case
basis.
Subd. 6. Wetland Buffer Strips and Setbacks
A.
B.
C.
For a Lot of record or a redevelopment project created after passage of this ordinance, a wetland
buffer strip shall be maintained around the perimeter of all wetlands and all stormwater or NURP
ponds which are constructed as part of a wetland mitigation plan or Public Value Credit as part
of an approved wetland mitigation plan. The setback and wetland buffer strip provisions of this
ordinance shall not apply to a Lot of record as of the passage of this ordinance or for
developments for which site plans, preliminary plats, final plats or planned unit development
plans have been approved by the Community Planning Board or City Council prior to this date.
The City does however, strongly encourage the use of a wetland buffer strip and setback on all
lots in the City.
Wetland buffer strips and structure setbacks shall apply regardless of whether or not the wetland
or stormwater pond is on the same parcel as a proposed development.
Wetland buffer strip vegetation shall be established and maintained in accordance with the
requirements found in Section 11.51, Subd. 9. Wetland buffer strips shall be identified within
each Lot by permanent monumentation approved by the City Manager in accordance with Section
11.51, Subd. 8.

Drafr
Wetland Buffer Strip (Minimum Width)
D. Activities, including but not limited to building, paving, mowing, introduction of non-native
vegetation, cutting, filling, dumping, yard waste disposal or fertilizer application, are prohibited
within the wetland buffer strip. However, non-native vegetation, such as European buckthorn,
purple loosestrife and reed canary grass, may be removed as long as the wetland buffer strip is
maintained to the standards required by the City. Alterations would not include plantings that
enhance the native vegetation or selective clearing or pruning of trees or vegetation that are dead,
diseased or pose similar hazards.
For roadways or other structures where the City determines that there is no practical alternative
except to be aligned either adjacent to or across wetlands, additional wetland filling to create a
wetland buffer strip shall not be required. Trails that are intended to serve an interpretive function
are also exempted fi-om the wetland buffer strip requirement. All other areas and structures,
including roadways and trails shall meet the setbacks and wetland buffer strip standards
established in Table 1 below. The use of a meandering wetland buffer strip to maintain a natural
appearance is encouraged.
An existing structure, driveway or parking area would be considered a legal nonconforming
structure if a later WCA delineation shows that the wetland is closer than the required setback.

Subd. 7. Alternative Wetland Buffer Strips and Setbacks With Extraordinary Management
Measures
A. Recognizing that there are instances where, because of the unique physical characteristics of a
specific parcel of land, narrower wetland buffer strips may be necessary to allow for the
' reasonable use of the land, the alternative wetland buffer strip standards set forth below may be
applied based on an assessment of the following:
(1) Size of the parcel
(2) Existing roads and utilities
(3)
(4)
(5)
(6)
(7)
Percentage of parcel covered by wetlands
Configuration of wetlands on the parcel

application. An Applicant must receive City Council approval through one of these review
processes. The alternative must be in keeping with the spirit and intent of this ordinance.
In instances where alternative wetland buffer strip standards are approved, an Applicant will be
required to apply extraordinary management measures for all wetlands to control erosion,
sedimentation and nutrient loading during and for two years after construction. Dual-silt fencing
is the recommended measure. Dual silt fencing will be considered properly installed if the up-
slope fence is installed on the undisturbed edge of the wetland buffer strip and the down-slope
fence is installed 5 to 6 feet into the unscarified wetland buffer strip. Silt fence must be placed
outside of the wetland. An Applicant must demonstrate that alternatives to the recommended
measures to control erosion, sedimentation and nutrient loading will limit dissolved phosphorus
concentration to one milligram per liter (mg/l) or less. Extraordinary management measures that
may be permitted in conjunction with and up-slope fkom the above wetland buffer strip and
setback requirement include, but are not limited to, measures that add redundant protections to
normally required Best Management Practices.
Where alternative wetland buffer strip standards are approved, wetland buffer strips and structure
setbacks shall meet the standards established in Table 2 below.

E. An Applicant shall be responsible for submitting all of the necessary information to document that
. the proposed extraordinary construction and stormwater management practices will meet or
exceed the performance of the required wetland buffer strips and setbacks with the Land
Development Application. An Applicant also has the burden of proving that the purpose and
objectives of the Section will be met through the use of these Extraordinary Management
Practices.
Subd. 8. Monumentation
A monument is required at each Lot line where it crosses a wetland buffer strip and shall have a
maximum spacing of 200 feet along the edge of the wetland buffer strip. Additional posts shall be
placed as necessary to accurately define the edge of the wetland buffer strip. If no wetland buffer strip
is required, monuments shall be placed at the wetland boundary. The monument shall consist of a post
and a wetland buffer strip sign. The post shall be of a material approved by the City Manager, such as
a fiberglass reinforced composite post with a maximum size of 4 inch by 4 inch (4" x 4"). The sign
shall be mounted flush with the top of the post and shall state "Wetland Buffer: No Mowing Allowed"
or 'Wetland Buffer: Vegetation Clearing Limit". The post shall be mounted to a height of a minimum
of four feet above grade set at least 42 inches in the ground. The bottom of the post must be fitted with
an anchor attachment that would expand upon attempted removal. Monuments may be waived in
unusual circumstances where the City determines that such signs would not serve a practical purpose.

Subd. 9. Wetland Buffer Strip Vegetation Performance Standards
A.
B.
C.
Where acceptable natural vegetation exists in wetland buffer strip areas, the retention of such
vegetation in an undisturbed state is required unless an Applicant receives approval to replace
such vegetation. A wetland buffer strip has acceptable natural vegetation if it:
(i) has a continuous, dense layer of perennial grasses that have been uncultivated or unbroken
for at least 5 consecutive years, or
(ii) has an overstory of trees andor shrubs with at least 80 percent canopy closure that have
been uncultivated or unbroken for at least 5 consecutive years, or
(iii) contains a mixture of the plant cornunities described in (1) and (2) above, that have been
uncultivated or unbroken for at least 5 consecutive years.
Notwithstanding the performance standards set forth above in Subdivision 9 (A), the City
Manager may determine existing wetland buffer strip vegetation to be unacceptable if:
(i) it is composed of undesirable plant species (including, but not limited to common buckthorn,
. purple loosestrife, le* spurge andor noxious weeds as defined by Minnesota Statutes,
Sections 18.76-18.88), or
(ii) has topography'that tends'to channelize the flow of surface runoff, or
(iii) for some other reason it is unlikely to retain nutrients and sediment.
Where wetland buffer strips, or a portion thereof, are not vegetated or have been cultivated or
otherwise disturbed within 5 years of the permit application, such areas shall be re-planted and
maintained. The wetland buffer strip plantings must be identified on the Land Alteration Permit
submitted in accordance with Section 11.55, Subdivision 5. The wetland buffer skip landscaping
shall be according to each of the following standards:
Wetland buffer strips shall be planted with a seed mix containing 100 percent perennial
native vegetation, except for a one-time planting of an annual nurse or cover crop such as
oats or rye.
The seed mix to be used shall be broadcast at a minimum rate of 30 pounds per acre. The
annual nurse or cover crop to be used shall be applied at a minimum rate of 20 pounds per
acre. The seed mix shall consist of at least 12 pounds pure live seed (PLS) per acre of native
prairie grass seed and 3 pounds PLS per acre of native forbs. Native prairie grass and native
forb mixes shall contain no fewer than five (5) native prairie grasses and fifteen (1 5) native
forb species. The Minnesota Department of Transportation Mix for sedge and prairie areas
(Mixture 25A Modified or Mixture 25B) or other alternative pre-approved by the City
Manager can be used to meet these requirements. Applicants may obtain fiom the City a
set of Native Wetland & Buffer Area Seeding Specifications for wetland buffer strips that
meet all the City requirements.
Native shrubs may be substituted for native forbs. All substitutions must be pre-approved
by the City Manager. Such shrubs may be bare root seedlings and shall be planted at a
minimum rate of 60 plants per acre. Shrubs shall be distributed so as to provide a natural
appearance and shall not be planted in rows.
Any groundcover or shrub plantings installed within the wetland bekr strip are independent
of landscaping required elsewhere by the City Code.
Page 9
Drafc
D.
(v) Native prairie grasses and forbs shall be seeded or planted by a qualified contractor. The
method of application and determination of the contractor’s qyalifications shall be made by
the City Manager. It is the responsibility of the Applicant to have the contractor and method
used approved by the City Manager prior to planting or seeding.
(vi) No fertilizer shall be used in establishing new wetland buffer strips, except on highly
disturbed sites when deemed necessary to establish acceptable wetland buffer strip
vegetation and then limited to amounts indicated by an accredited soil testing laboratory.
Determination of proper accreditation shall be made by the City Manager.
(vii) All seeded areas shall be mulched immediately with clean straw at a rate of 1.5 tons per acre.
Mulch shall be anchored with a disk or tackifier.
(viii) Wetland buffer strips (both natural and created), shall be protected by erosion control during
construction in accordance with Section 11.51, Subd. 7.
(ix) The erosion control shall remain in place until the area crop is established.
Wetland buffer strip vegetation shall be established and maintained in accordance with the
requirements found in this Section. During the first two full growing seasons, the Applicant must
replant any wetland buffer strip vegetation that does not survive. After two full growing seasons,
if the condition of the wetland buffer strip changes, the Applicant shall not be required to
reestablish the wetland buffer strip to meet the standards contained in Section 11.51, Subd. 9. The
Owner shall be responsible for reseeding andor replanting if the wetland buffer strip changes‘at
any time through human intervention or activities. At a minimum the wetland buffer strip must
be maintained as a “no mow” area.
Subd. 10. Encroachment in Required Setback and Wetland Buffer Strip Areas
A. Wetland buffer strips must be kept flee of all structures, including fences and play equipment.
Wetland buffer strips must not be mown except as pre-approved in writing by the City Manager
for maintenance practices. The acceptability of the proposedmaintenance practices shall be made
by the City Manager.
B. Variances I Waivers
(i) Only variances meeting the standards and criteria set forth in Section 11.76, Subd. 1 and
waivers approved pursuant to Section 11.40, Subd. 8 forL a Planned Unit Development
(PUD) process shall be granted. All variance requests must be made to the Board of
Appeals. All waiver requests must be made to the Community Planning Board and the City
Council.
(ii) Variances or waivers shall not be granted which would circumvent the intent and purposes
of Section 1 1.5 1.
Subd. 11. Performance Bond Required.
No land alteration permit shall be issued until the Applicant files with the City Manager a performance
bond, cash escrow or letter of credit with a corporation approved by the City Manager, as svety
thereon, or other guarantee acceptable to the City Manager and in an amount determined by the City
Manager as set forth below:
Page 10
A.
B.
C.
Amount - The amount shall be for no less than one and one-half(1 %) times the amount estimated
by the City Manager as the cost of completing said wetland buffer strip landscaping. The
performance bond must cover two complete growing seasons following completion of the
development and must be conditioned upon complete and satisfactory implementation of the
approved wetland buffer strip landscape plan and final inspection of the wetland buffer strip by
the City.
Submittals - The Applicant shall provide one copy of a signed contract with an environmental
consultant to monitor compliance and certify final completion of the wetland buffer strip
requirements after the end of the second fill growing season after completion of the development.
Form of Application - The performance bond, cash escrow, letter of credit or other guarantee
acceptable to the City Manager shall be posted with the Land Alteration Permit application as
detailed in Section 11.55, Subdivision 5.
Subd. 12 - Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 103G.2243, the City Council adopts a Local
Comprehensive Wetland Protection and Management Plan which has been prepared under the
requirements of Minnesota Rules, Chapter 8420.
Subd. 13 - City Code Chapter 1 , entitled “General Provisions and Definitions Applicable to the entire
City Code Including Penalty for Violation” and Section 11.99, entitled ‘Violation a Misdemeanor” are
hereby adopted in their entirety, by reference, as though repeated verbatim herein.

Update on Soliciting FAA Support for Changes to
MAC Ordinance 51 and EIS for Flying Cloud
1 ITEMNO.:
XA 4 Community Development
Donald R. Uram
Scott A. Kipp
Background Information
At the November 16, 1999 meeting, the City Council endorsed the solicitation of support from
the FAA and key aviation associations for the proposed changes to MAC Ordinance 51 by MAC
staff and the Flying Cloud mort AdvisoryCommission.
The Metropolitan Airports Commission has not completed a Federal Aviation Regulations
(FAR) Part 161 study required by the FAA for the nighttime curfew of Stage I1 jets proposed in
the changes to Ordinance 5 1. This study will take approximately one year to complete. The
FAA does not allow proposed restrictions on airports be included in Environmental Impact
Statements unless a Part 161 study indicates otherwise.
Soliciting the positions of these influential organizations and the FAA prior to completion of a
required FAR Part 161 study will give MAC, the City and general public some indication of
whether the nighttime curfew has merit for support during the EIS process.
The nighttime restriction was critical in support of the proposed changes to the Ordinance by the
. Flying Cloud Airport Advisory Commission. MAC represented to all involved that the changes
to Ordinance 5 1 would be part of the EIS.
The Draft EIS is now out for review with the public hearing set for February 9,2000 at the
Hennepin Vo-Tech.
Tom Heffelfinger, Chairman of the Commission will be at the City Council meeting to present
this issue.

0 Riley/ Jacques House
Requested Action
Move to: Direct the City.Staff to work with the Community Program Board and Heritage
Preservation Commission to develop recommendations for the future use of the DouglasMore
Property, the Cumrnings/Grill House, and Riley/Jacques House. The analysis of the properties
should take into account their: historic significance, potential adaptive re-use, operations,
maintenance, programming, all costs, and financial sustainability over time.
Synopsis
The City staff, with input from the Heritage Preservation Commission should develop several
optional uses for each of the historic sites for recommendations to the Community Program
Board. Recommendations fi-om the Community Program Board and City Staff, consistent with
the City’s Strategic Plan, should be made to the City Council by June 1,2000.
Background
The City purchased the Helen and Earl More house in 1981 in order to assure control over its
historic preservation. The house is located on the east side of County Road 4, south of Lincoln
Lane. The Mores retained life estate privileges on the property. Upon the recent death of Earl
More, the City became the sole owner of the DouglasMore House located at 8107 Eden Prairie
Road.
At this time, the heirs to the estate intend to sell the contents of the home. It is timely for the City
to determine the future use of the home prior to developing a rental agreement for any proposed
tenant.
The Mores have been living in the house since the City acquired the property, however, the park
maintenance staff have maintained the grounds, mowed the lawn, plowed snow, and paid for any major
building repairs. The building needs extensive maintenance and repair work at this time. However,
depending upon the end use of the facility, the City should consider uses for the facility other than
simply maintaining ownership with a renter in the facility.

Status of Historic Sites
Page 2
Staff members fiom: Finance, Assessing, Facilities, Parks and Recreation, Community
Development (including Historic Preservation), Management Services, and Building Inspections
will be involved in the review of all three historic sites. Each of these divisions will provide
facts, concerns, and potential uses for the site to the Heritage Preservation Commission for their
consideration. The HPC should review those facts and submit a recommendation to the
Community Program Board regarding potential uses of the DouglasMore House. The Staff and
Community Program Board will make recommendations to the City Council.
A major consideration should be the estimated cost to restore, maintain, and program all three
historic sites prior to making a recommendation on any one particular site. These costs should
be evaluated with the ongoing discussions the City Council has had with City staff regarding
overall City services and the long term Capital Improvement Plan, as well as the ability to Eund
those requests.

Synopsis
In 1999, the City of Eden Prairie and the Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District jointly
applied for and were approved for a Greenways Planning Grant for the Phase I of a Creek
Corridors Management Plan. This management plan provided an inventory of the natural
resources within a City owned property along Purgatory Creek and Riley Creek for the purpose
of developing recommendations on best methods for protecting those natural resources, and
managing the creeks within those sites. Phase I1 of this management plan will provide the actual
site plans and management practices recommended for preserving these sites and providing the
public reasonable access to enjoy these public properties.
The estimated cost for this final phase of the management plan is $40,000. Twenty thousand
dollars will be funded through the Metro Greenways Grant, $10,000 from the Riley-Purgatory-
Bluff Creek Watershed District and $10,000 from the City of Eden Prairie. Funds for the City’s
portion of this planning project would come fiom cash park fees.

ITEM DESCRIPTION: Round Lake Water
Quality
ITEM NO: a L2-
Requested Action
Move to: Accept the recommendations listed on pages three and four of this report, and
direct staff to develop a plan and cost estimates for installation of a water curtain,
beach fencing and other improvements necessary to provide a clean, safe
swimming area at Round Lake.
Synopsis
In 1999, Barr Engineering submitted a report to the City regarding recommendations for
improving water quality in Round Lake. The study recommended projects costing nearly one
million dollars. The City *Council requested staff to meet with other governmental agencies
charged with water quality improvement and to submit a report offering options to addressing
water quality improvement for Round Lake. This report summarizes the Barr Report and
discussions with staff from Hennepin Parks, the DNR and the PCA. This report also provides
recommendations for less costly measures to address the immediate water quality concerns for
the Round Lake swimming beach.
Attachment
Round Lake Revenues/Expenditures 1997-1 999
Background
The purpose of the Round Lake Use Attainability Analysis was to provide an assessment of the
water quality of Round Lake, analyze the problems and provide alternative remedial measures
that would result in the attainment of water quality sufficient to continue swimming, fishing,
boating, etc.
This study established water quality goals for Round Lake and quantified the status the of lake in
relation to those goals using a standardized lake rating system termed the Carlson’s Trophic
State Index (TSI). The goals for Round Lake included:
I
City Council Agenda - 1/18/2000
Round Lake Water Quality
Page 2
1. A recreation goal that would fully support swimming and support a sport fishery that
included a balance of predator fish (northern pike and bass) and planktivores (bluegills).
2. The water quality goal is to obtain and maintain full support of swimming and fishing.
This would require a trophic state index (TSI) of 53 or more.
3. The aquatic communities’ goal is to fully support fishing according to the Minnesota
Department of Natural Resources “ecological use classification.”
4. The water quantity goal is to manage surface water runoff from a regional flood, the
critical 100 year frequency stom event.
5. The wildlife goal for the lake is to protect existing, beneficial wildlife use. This wildlife
goal has been achieved, but the current wildlife use of the lake is impeding the
achievement of the lake’s recreation, water quality and aquatic community goals. There
is substantial use of Round Lake by waterfowl; particularly geese.
Historic Water Quality Trends
The study analyzed water quality from 1972 through 1997 and indicated a significant
degradation of the lake’s water quality. During that time, the Secchi disc transparency declined
fiom 3.2 meters in 1972 to 1.5 meters in 1997. The results of the trend analysis indicate a
continued decline in Round Lake quality can be expected to occur unless management practices
to stop the decline are identified and implemented. A comparison of the baseline and current
data indicates total phosphorus concentrations (summer averages) had increased by
approximately 50% and chlorophyll a concentrations have increased by approximately 70%,
while Secchi disc transparencies have decreased by more than 50%.
Current Water Quality
The current water quality of Round Lake is poor and recreational activities are impaired by
summer algae blooms. The 1997 total phosphorous concentration data indicates the lake was
eutrophic (poor water quality) during early summer and hypereutrophic (very poor water quality)
during the middle and late summer. The 1997 chlorophyll a concentration measurements were
in the mesotrophic (good water quality) category in the early summer, but were in the eutrophic
to hypereutrophic categories during the remaining portion of the summer. The 1997 Secchi disc
transparency measurements were in the mesotrophic category during the early summer and in the
eutrophic category during the remainder of the summer. The data indicates that minimal
recreational use impairment occurs during the early summer, but moderate to severe recreational
use impairment (primarily swimming) occurs during the remaining portion of the summer.
Watershed Runoff Pollution
The 444-acre watershed for Round Lake is fully developed and consists primarily of single
family residential, grassland and public sector (Eden Prairie High School) land uses plus roads.
The major concern that must be addressed to improve the water quality in Round Lake is to
reduce phosphorous loading to the 32-acre lake. The average rate of phosphorous loading is five
City Council Agenda - 1/18/2000
Round Lake Water Quality
Page 3
pounds of phosphorous per acre of lake per year, which is excessive and causes water quality
problems.
Recommended Lake and Watershed Management Practices
The study recommended seven major steps to improve water quality in Round Lake:
1. Upgrade existing runoff detention ponds.
2.
3.
4. Lake alum treatment.
Add new runoff detention pond.
Chemical treatment of watershed runoff (treated with alum to reduce its phosphorous
content).
5. Fisheries management (initiate a bluegill feeding program with the installation of
feeders).
6.
7. Canada geese management.
Aquatic weed management (treat with a herbicide “Reward.”)
Review of the Report with Other Governmental Agencies
City staff have discussed the Barr Engineering Report with a number of limnologists and
environmental staff fiom other governmental agencies. The general consensus of other staff is
that the Barr recommendations include proposing the City take a very aggressive approach and
utilize all of the existing technology to improve Round Lake to desired standards in the shortest
amount of time possible. While other governmental officials don’t deny that all of the
recommendations proposed in the Barr report would more than likely have a relatively
immediate and significant impact on the water quality of Round Lake, they do caution the City
that the cost to implement all of these recommendations would be extremely high and the
ongoing costs would be significant. All of the individuals City staff consulted recommended a
less aggressive, less costly approach to addressing Round Lake’s problem. The representative
from the Pollution Control Agency (PCA) indicated that the Clean Waters Act will not require
any specific goals to be met in the short term and will probably require the appropriate
governmental agencies to have a plan within ten years to indicate how they will meet the EPA
standards. The PCA is more supportive of less aggressive technology than alum treatment
systems that require high initial costs and ongoing operating costs. They are more supportive of
cities adopting specific street sweeping policies and strong ordinances that restrict the use of
phosphates in fertilizers. One of the individuals contacted suggested that the most productive
step the City could take would be to pass an ordinance similar to the Plymouth ordinance
restricting the use of phosphates in fertilizers and commit an annual budget toward educating the
public as to why they don’t need to pay for phosphates in fertilizers and to restrict the sale of
fertilizers with phosphates within the comm~.~&~. If it is inconvenient to purchase fertilizers
with phosphates, the use of phosphates would dramatically be decreased.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
City staff recommend the City Council consider the following recommendations:
1. Request the citizens committee that will be responsible for developing the Water
Management Plan for the City to evaluate the Barr Report on Round Lake and to
establish water quality goals for Round Lake and the best management practices to
achieve those goals.
2. Staff recommend shortening the swimming season at Round Lake beach for the summer
of 2000 to June 15th through August lSt. Recent water quality records indicate that
beyond that time the water quality has diminished to the point that it is marginal for
swimming and the County Health Department has generally shut down the beach due to
coliform count caused by geese that are beginning to join large flocks after gaining their
flight wings.
3. Staff is recommending the City obtain a permit to relocate geese that are nesting within
Round Lake Park each year to reduce the negative impact on the swimming beach.
4. All indications are that significant improvement to the water quality in Round Lake will
take many years. The water quality in Round Lake now is marginal for swimming. Staff
would recommend the Council either eliminate swimming at Round Lake after the
summer of 2000 or consider steps that would have to be taken to maintain swimming
until the water quality in Round Lake is significantly improved. Those steps would
include the following:
A. Installation of a “beach curtain.”
B. Installation of a four foot high chain link fence around the sand beach area (to
keep geese out of the designated sand bathing area. This would be done with the
assistance of a dog.)
C. Installation of a bubbler system within the swimming area (connected to the
existing aeration system) to discourage geese in the swimming area after beach
hours.
D. Installation of the necessary connections to the City’s existing well at Round Lake
Park to augment fresh water behind the curtain to ensure high water quality within
the swimming area.
E. Advertise for construction of the storage building adjacent to the Round Lake
marina for construction dying the summer of 2000. This facility was proposed
for funding in 1999 in the Cash Park Fund.

CONSIDERATIONS:
Staff would support the steps necessary to maintain swimming at Round Lake beach. The City
has invested a great deal of money in Round Lake and Round Lake Park and believe swimming
facilities along with the new playground equipment, the marina, and the other recreational
facilities at Round Lake Park make this park truly unique. Staff also believe that by maintaining
swimming at Round Lake, .citizens will continue to be aware of the need to continue improving
the water quality at Round Lake and will support City efforts to improve water quality in all of
our lakes.
