Eden Prairie
Subject: Request from Soccer Association Regarding Dogs at Flying
Cloud Fields
On January 5, 2004, Ken Bomben, one of the directors of the Eden Prairie Soccer Association
appeared before the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission requesting the
Commission consider recommending eliminating the ability for people to bring dogs to Flying Cloud
Fields. Mr.Bomben explained the biggest issues are the number of participants in the program and
the lack of space between fields to accommodate people watching games. Some people choose to
• bring their family pet to these games,while other people either do not like dogs or are afraid of dogs,
or their children are afraid of dogs. There is no room to accommodate both.He also indicated that
dogs have caused other problems including interrupting games,and not all dog owners clean up after
their dogs.
Mr.Bomben indicated that the Soccer Association has been requesting their participants not to bring
dogs to the fields for many years; however, many parents point out that it is not against a City
Ordinance and the Soccer Association does not own the fields.
Attached to this memorandum is a copy of the January 5,2004 minutes of the meeting summarizing
the discussion the Commission had regarding this issue.After a lengthy discussion,the Commission
voted on a 7:1 vote to recommend the City designate"No Dogs Allowed"at Flying Cloud Athletic
Fields beginning April 1,2004. Subsequent to that decision several Council members have indicated
to the City Manager that this issue needs further discussion prior to any decision to restrict dogs from
Flying Cloud Fields.
The Council has reserved the workshop of July 6 for this purpose.Representatives from each of the
athletic associations that utilize those fields has been invited to attend this meeting,as have members
of the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission.

the construction of the booth and fencing they can use the revenue generated from the games
for paying for these projects over the years.
Motion: Barrett moved, seconded by Mackay,to recommend that the City Council consider
providing funds in an upcoming referendum for park improvements that would be available
for constructing public recreational facilities such as park shelters, concessions,public
restrooms and other improvements to the park system, and that are partially funded through
significant private donations. The motion carried 8-0.
Barrett said he recommends that they have strict guidelines for the use of these funds.
Lambert said the amount of private funding required would also depend on the number of
people served by the project and on the cost of the project.
VI. OLD BUSINESS
A. Request from Soccer Association
Lambert reported that the Eden Prairie Soccer Association requested that the City adopt an
ordinance that would not allow dogs at Flying Cloud athletic fields. This Commission asked
Staff to contact the various other Associations that use the fields to see if they have an
opinion on the banning of dogs. Lambert further reported that the Baseball Association
disagreed with the request. They feel that if the existing ordinance were enforced there would
not be a problem. The Football Association does not support the request and also feels the
existing ordinance should be enforced. The Girls Athletic Association agrees with the request
and the Lacrosse Association has no strong opinion either way. Lambert said Staff has had
some discussion with the Park Rangers about enforcing the regulation better and they
indicated that there is no way they can do that when there are so many participants at this one
location. If the dog is on a leash and still jumps on another bystander,there is nothing that
can be done. Lambert said this is not a good location for allowing dogs due to the number of
people(spectators) crowded between fields. It is a different type of activity than a
neighborhood park.
Ken Bomben, 9260 Kalus Circle, said he is the Director of the Eden Prairie Soccer
Association.He explained that their biggest issue is the number of participants in the
• program and there is not a lot of spare space. The distance between the fields is minimal and
one dog can impact several fields. He pointed out that the baseball and football fields have
sidelines and have much better control because the dogs are further away from the players.
Bomben explained that the reason for their request is because in previous years they have had
numerous complaints from the parents in the program that dogs were leaving messes on the
fields and were disruptive to the soccer games.
Mackay asked if it would be possible to restrict dogs from the soccer fields but not from the .
baseball or football fields. Lambert said that would be almost impossible to enforce. Jacobus -
said he agrees with Bomben. There are between 500 and 750 kids and parents crammed onto
these fields.He asked if it would be possible to restrict dogs at certain times and have the
PARKS,RECREATION AND NATURAL RESOURCES COMMISSION

Soccer Association manage the process.Lambert.said Staff would not support that.They
would end up with the same problem of the dogs defecating on the fields. It would be much
easier to enforce an ordinance restricting dogs from these fields.Barrett asked if it would be
possible for the Association to ask the parents to not bring their dogs to the soccer fields.
Bomben responded that they have tried to do this through a letter for several years,however,
this is not effective without the backing of a City ordinance.
Mackay said he did not want to see a precedent set and that they would be expected to ban
dogs from other parks.Larson said he personally does not see this as a trend.The City did
move forward with an off leash area for dogs.Mackay said there should be a better way than
adopting an ordinance to handle this problem.Brill said he also feels they are setting a •
precedent. The reasons for banning dogs are valid but he questioned whether or not they are
valid enough to adopt an ordinance. Barrett said he too agrees that there is.a problem but
feels this remedy is rather extreme for a park that has a number of uses.Moriarity pointed out
that it has many uses but is designed for athletic uses.
Lambert explained that Flying Cloud is not designated as a"park"and is the only designated
"athletic field"in the City. Every other facility in the City that has ball fields is a park.They
have park trails and other recreational facilities and are used as neighborhood•parks. The park
serving the neighborhood for this area is Staring Lake. Lambert said Staff is not concerned
about setting a precedent for a park use since this is the only athletic field in the City.
Motion:Motion was made by Jacobus, seconded by Brill,because of the unique use of
Flying Cloud Athletic Fields for youth athletic activities,to recommend the City designate
"No Dogs Allowed"at Flying Cloud Athletic Fields beginning April 1,2004. The
Commission does not want to set a precedent but believes this is a good policy for Flying
Cloud Athletic Fields,which is a single purpose facility. The motion carried, 7-1 with Barrett
voting nay.
B. Reservation Use of City Facilities
Lambert reported that this item is a follow-up to a discussion with this Commission regarding
the problem of the Athletic Associations subleasing the City's fields. City staff did meet with
representatives of the Athletic Associations that utilize the outdoor facilities and talked about
the facilities policy that was developed in 1977. This Commission did concur that the City
should revise their fees to charge direct cost for tournaments and clinics and to follow the
existing policy.It was also agreed that a better job should be done to communicate to the
Associations what this policy is. Lambert said on a yearly basis the City would invite
representatives from each Association to talk about policy issues and problems they have.
Staff also recommended that the School District consider adopting a policy for the use of
their fields and the subleasing of those fields similar to the City's. The School District is not
ready to do that because their Staff has been directed to raise revenues to pay for their
operational costs. Staff suggested that the next time the City and School Board meet they
discuss the overuse of facilities and if the policy should be changed to make the most use of
the facilities.

Heritage Room II
I. COUNCIL SALARIES
City Manager Scott Neal discussed a survey of elected officials pay for Eden Prairie and
11 other communities,which was compiled by Assistant to the City Manager Michael
Barone The survey group included the 11 cities that make up the Municipal Legislative
Commission as well as St. Louis Park. Since there are several different ways in which
compensation is earned and calculated,the report includes a summary comparison of
total compensation intended to provide an accurate picture of where Eden Prairie falls in
comparison to the other cities.
Currently Eden Prairie Councilmembers receive a$6,000 per year stipend, and the Mayor
receives $7,200. There is also a meeting pay program under which Councilmembers and
the Mayor receive $25 for attending any qualifying meeting of up to two hours, and$50
for meetings in excess of two hours,not to exceed$50 per day. Councilmembers also
receive a$60 per month technology stipend.
The summary comparison shows that over Eden Prairie ranks 10th (out of 12 cities) in
total Council compensation per capita.
Neal said that the City likes to be slightly over the median for employee pay. He believes
it helps the City attract and retain highly skilled and motivated employees. Therefore,
Neal said he certainly believes there is room for Council pay to go up. He said the
Council pay rate could be increased without significantly affecting the overall budget;
however,he acknowledged that a pay increase could have political implications.
Councilmember Mosman,who noted she had requrested the Council pay discussion, said
that if regular City employees are paid above average,it would make sense for
Councilmembers to receive comparable compensation. She noted that the agenda packet
will soon be produced completely electronically, which should result in significant
savings in paper and labor costs. She said these savings alone will probably cover any
raise in Council salaries.
Mosman proposed raising the Mayor's salary by$2,500 and Council salaries by$1,500.
Neal pointed out that the City of Bloomington pays that much in health coverage alone
for Council members. Neal said that Council pay increases must be approved by Council
by Ordinance and would not go into effect until January 1.
Mosman said the current method of paying for meetings in time increments can be
problematic. She noted that Bloomington pays a flat rate for meeting attendance rather
than increments. Jan is in favor of converting to this type of system, and suggested $35
per meeting. Butcher agreed with this suggestion. She would also like to see health
coverage as an option, especially since several other communities in the comparison are
now offering that benefit to Councilmembers. Mayor Tyra-Lukens asked Neal to look
into the City's current policy for health care coverage for part-time employees. Tyra-
Lukens asked how Councilmember Young, as a newer Councilmember, felt about the
discussion. He said he has no problem with it.
Mosman said she will work with Neal to formalize a proposal for Council consideration.
II. PUBLIC HEARING PROCESS
Neal said Mayor Tyra-Lukens had requested the public hearing process be reviewed at a
Workshop. Neal noted that while most public hearings are perfunctory,they occasionally
become raucous or repetitive. He pointed out that the City is not required to hold most
public hearings at Council meetings; many could be done at the Planning Board level if
Council wishes. Neal said there are tools to help control the length of public hearings.
Mayor Tyra-Lukens said she doesn't feel there are currently problems with public
hearings;however, she is in favor of adopting ground rules that can be used in case a
particular hearing becomes repetitive or lengthy. Sherry also would like to have
guidelines, and suggested that they be posted in the Council Chamber. Tyra-Lukens also
pointed out that in addition to speaking at a public hearing,there are many other ways in
which residents can provide input(phone calls, letters, e-mails, etc.).
Tyra-Lukens said she likes the way Hennepin County uses a timer with a light that
changes color when the speaker's time is up. This makes the process impartial,and does
not require the meeting chair to cut off a speaker in mid-sentence.
Councilmember Young said he does not think Council has too many public hearings. He
likes to hear what the public has to say about issues. Sherry agreed,but said she would
like to see some guidelines instituted. Young said using a clock-timer tends to be
distracting to individuals who may already be uncomfortable speaking in public,but that
a light-time might work well.
Neal said staff will gather public hearing guidelines from other communities for Council
to use as a starting point.
Council Chamber
III. OPEN FORUM
A. John Schmelzle and Michael Rush—Ice Rinks
Mr. Rush said the Hockey Association has been trying to get additional ice rinks
built in Eden Prairie for 10 years. He thinks the Association has a plan that will
work for them and for the City. He said the Association will build the rinks. All
they need is land around Round Lake and the necessary variances from the City.
Rush requested to work with staff to formalize his proposal. He said the
Association is hoping to get a thumbs up or a thumbs down from Council within a
couple of weeks.
Mayor Tyra-Lukens asked why they want to locate the rinks at Round Lake Park
rather than at the Community Center, as was proposed during the recent
referendum. Rush said they really believe they need two rinks, and they will
work best on the Round Lake site. He said the Association would build and pay
for the rinks,then turn them over to the City for use during the rest of the year.
He said the rinks would be covered,but the structures would be concrete rather
than brick.
Tyra-Lukens thanked Rush and Schmelzle for the presentation. She said action to
direct staff to work on the proposal would need to be made during the regular
Council meeting.
B. Roger Person—Edenvale Outlot
Mr. Person said he does not agree with the City's conclusion that Edenvale Outlot
A should be turned over to the County for sale. He said a lot of the Edenvale
Outlots are in limbo, and it would not be appropriate to turn the lot over at this
time. He said this outlot was not listed on the memo the City issued a year and a
half ago. In addition,he does not believe that nearby property owners are aware
of the potential sale of this site. He believes the lot will be worth more if the
adjacent lot is developed before the outlot is sold. He said he agrees with the
City's analysis,but not with the solution.
Parks Manager Stu Fox noted that Hennepin County is responsible for disposing
of tax-forfeit property, and the City gains no value from the sale of the property.
Person responded that he does not believe the property should ever have been
considered as tax forfeit. He said the outlots were supposed to have been turned
over to the City when the Edenvale Homeowners Association was dissolved.
Councilmember Young asked why the property was being turned over to
Hennepin County now,and what are the implications if the property is not sold?
Fox said the County has been contacted by the adjacent property owner,who is
interested in purchasing the outlot. Fox noted that alone the lot is not viable,but
if combined with an adjacent lot,it could accommodate a single-family home.
Young said that would mean that the person who would benefit from the land
going tax forfeit would be the person who has the purchase agreement for the
adjacent lot.
Fox said adjacent property owners would be notified of the possible sale of the
land if and when Council approves the Resolution declaring it tax forfeit.
Resident Jeff Strate said the matter seems unclear, and asked that Council pull the
item from the agenda for this meeting. He further stated that it looks as if there
will be town homes built and that local homeowners are owed the time to be
notified about this since it is currently open space. Strate also asked that the City
Attorney be asked to research the dissolution of the Edenvale Association before
this sale is allowed to proceed.
C. Steve Wagner—Weed Control
Mr. Wagner asked Council to take a look at the City's process for weed control
enforcement. He said he requested an overgrown lot near his home be mowed by
the City. He said the Council is aware of the situation and that he has talked with
City Manager Scott Neal about it. Mayor Tyra-Lukens said Council and City
staff have heard a lot about weeds this year. She noted that it has been difficult to
keep up with mowing due to the amount of rainfall over the past month.
Parks and Recreation Director Bob Lambert explained why it takes up to 30 days,
and occasionally longer,to have a lot mowed. The process,which is dictated by
state statutes,includes an inspection,notification of the owner,time for the owner
to comply, and scheduling of the contractor who actually mows the lot. Lambert
said the contractor is currently behind schedule because of rain,but the lot will be
mowed tomorrow unless there is a heavy storm tonight. Lambert said the City
receives about 60 weed complaints per year,and only two or three complainants
per year indicate they are unhappy with the City's response. He said the City has
had ongoing issues with the Post Brothers,but there are limits to what the City
can do to resolve them.
Tyra-Lukens asked why the City uses contractors to mow these lots instead of
regular City staff. Lambert said staff is fully booked maintaining parks and ball
fields,and they too are behind due to the weather. He said the City would have to
hire additional staff just to deal with weed issues if they did not use contractors.
Tyra-Lukens and Butcher both would like to fmd a way to shorten the process
from the time a weed complaint is received until the lot is mowed. Tyra-Lukens
asked what recourse the City has in dealing with repeat offenders. Neal said the
current state statute does not provide a means of labeling and dealing with
habitual offenders.

MOTION: Butcher moved, seconded by Mosman, to approve Items A-J of the Consent
Calendar, with the exception of Item H. Motion carried 4-0. Young stated he would also like
to discuss Item G.
Young said he is concerned that if light rail is to come to Eden Prairie, there is a desired path
and he agrees with that, but as he reads the report prepared through Hennepin County, we are
losing sight of the "if rail comes" and that is still a significant obstacle. He said he is very
reluctant to adopt something as an advisory tool which is strongly geared towards the presence
of light rail and he doesn't know if that is going to happen. He said this is putting the cart
before the horse in a sense. He said he is reluctant to vote in favor of it when the entity which
created it and the engineers that worked on it are politically influenced by Hennepin County
which is a big proponent of light rail.
Butcher asked if the language of the document is predicated on light rail. She said transit isn't
just light rail; it's the bus system and multiple modes. Neal asked Community Development
Director Janet Jeremiah to address Young's concerns. Jeremiah said the two modified land use
scenarios recommended by the Planning Commission do both assume light rail through this
area and are different in the alignments of light rail transit. She said staff had the same concern
as Young with regard to uncertainty of the light rail and the alignment. She said it was
suggested that it be subject to the condition that the preferred alignment is actually determined
prior to it being an actual advisory tool or becoming a comprehensive plan amendment.
Young said that is a very significant condition and he does not know why the council would
adopt it with that big of a condition. Jeremiah said it is expected that it will take two years of
additional study to determine the outcome of all of the conditions placed on this, so basically
the intent of the motion is to say this study is done and it is believed to be preferred to continue
to explore light rail through the area. She said the Planning Commission has recommended
those alternatives as the preferred alternatives, however there are still unknowns and light rail
is one of them. Jeremiah said it is suggested that Council direct staff to continue studying the
three items listed as conditions.
Franzen said when the study was first done, light rail was not part of the plan and actually
whether it's option 1 or option 2 in regard to whether it's transit oriented or less transit
oriented, the land use pattern didn't change in regards to where the light rail goes. He said he
thinks Council could proceed with the redevelopment plan for that independent or regardless of
whether the light rail goes there or not.
Young said he does not read the document with that in mind. He said he is very much in favor
of discussing redevelopment of the golden triangle or creating an advisory tool for purposes of
that redevelopment, but there is too much interconnectedness with the light rail in this.
Mosman said she thinks transit, whatever form it would take, is important in redevelopment
and that is what the consultants said in developing the golden triangle and light rail is only one
of the options. She said she did not read it as saying Council is favoring it. She said it is
important to allow for it, if and when it would be there, and it would be poor planning if it were
not included in the report.

Butcher said because of the language of this being an evaluation and an advisory tool, she
thinks it reflects what the Council has stood on in terms of the land use.
Young said he would prefer to pull Item G and vote on it separately.
MOTION: Butcher moved, seconded by Mosman, to amend the motion to reflect approval of
Items A-J of the Consent Calendar with the exception of Items G and H. Motion carried 4-0.
MOTION: Butcher moved, seconded by Mosman, to approve Item G of the Consent Calendar.
Motion carried 3-1 with Young opposed.
Regarding Item H of the Consent Calendar,Mosman said there was discussion on Open Forum
tonight on whether or not there was notification for owners surrounding this piece of property
when the county is going in and doing something. She said there was also a question about all
these pieces of which this was potentially one of them and was not on the list and maybe some
of the residents believed it should have been on the list. She said the whole list of parcels was
evidently going to be analyzed by the city attorney and she wondered about the status of that.
She said she does not know whether this particular parcel fits the criteria of the 20 other
parcels. Rosow said he does not recall an analysis of this parcel.
Councilmember Case arrived at approximately 7:15 p.m.
Dietz said the Council did direct the way to explore the ways in which the 21 outlots identified
in the February, 2003 list become owned by the City of Eden Prairie. After discussion, he said
it was determined that each lot would need a title opinion which would mean thousands of
dollars and a lot of work. He said one has been converted into city ownership,but this has not
been a priority. Dietz said this particular outlot being discussed tonight was not one of the 21
and ownership was Edenvale Association before it became tax forfeit. He said he thinks the
intent of this particular outlot was that it was going to be combined for development purposes.
MOTION: Butcher moved, seconded by Case, to approve Item H of the Consent Calendar.
Motion carried 5-0.
Dietz said getting this parcel combined with the Anderson property only allows that some
development could occur. If it were to be multi-family,there would be a public hearing process
for the neighborhood and each of the adjacent properties will also have an opportunity to buy it
through a sealed bid process.

City Manager Scott Neal said official notice of this public hearing was published in the
June 3, 2004,Eden Prairie Sun Current and sent to 28 property owners. He said this
project is for a 25,000 square foot retail building and a guide plan change from
Industrial to Neighborhood Commercial is required. He said this concept was first
reviewed by the Community Planning Board at an informational meeting on December
5, 2003. The Board believed that a commercial use for the property was appropriate and
that redevelopment on this site may be a catalyst for change on other sites. Neal said
the Community Planning Board voted 8-0 to recommend approval of the project at the
May 24, 2004 meeting, subject to architectural revisions to add more detail, different
materials, lights, and to create a pedestrian scale. The plans have been revised to
include additional brick, more columns, decorative wall lights, canopies, and windows.
Tyra-Lukens asked if there are transportation issues around the site and if a
transportation study had been done. She asked if informal numbers had been put
together. Franzen said yes, the developer worked with the City's traffic engineer and
looked at what impact would be caused by the project in the area. He said the study
concluded that nothing more than upgrading that portion of the roadway through the
project will be the only thing needed. He said this project will be started in the spring or
summer of 2005 which would be consistent with the opening of the retail center.
There were no comments from the public.
MOTION: Butcher moved, seconded by Mosman, to close the Public Hearing; and
Adopt the Resolution for Guide Plan Change from Industrial to Neighborhood
Commercial on 2.96 acres; and Adopt the Resolution for Planned Unit Development
Concept Review on 2.96 acres; and Approve 1st Reading of the Ordinance for Planned

a preliminary plat in the Rural zoning district of 7.88 acres into two lots. Wavers are
required for lot size, lot dimension and setbacks. The Community Planning voted 8-1
to recommend approval of the project to the City Council at the May 24, 2004 meeting,
subject to soil tests verifying the suitability for septic tank use and inspection of the
existing tank and drain field systems to determine if it meets current state standards.
Franzen stated that page 106 of this meeting's packet(page 14 of Community Planning
Board minutes) there were concerns about conditions or reasons for granting waivers.
They were 1)Half of the property would have to be dedicated; 2)Half of the remaining
land would be a conservation easement to protect the slopes and trees; 3) Demonstrate
the ability to put another house on the property without crowding the lot; and 4)
Demonstrate you can put a well, drainfield and back-up drainfield, septic tank that
meets the current state and city standards.
Tyra-Lukens asked if this is the same property as the McCollum property. Franzen said
yes, Michael McCollum sold that property about three-quarters of a year ago. Tyra-
Lukens asked what is different about this proposal vs. the McCollum proposal. Franzen
said initially the McCollum proposal simply wanted to subdivide the property without
dedicating property or providing the conservation easement. He said Lambert
recommended that if half the property was dedicated and half of the remaining lots in
conservation easement, it would go a long way to preserve a significant natural feature.
Tyra-Lukens asked what our protection for the conservation easement is. Lambert said
it is his contention that conservation easements only work when the adjacent neighbors
understand they are there and support them.
Case asked if the conservation easement is on the land on the north side of the road.
Lambert said no, the land to the north is city property. Case said the land next to the
road has 20-30 feet of buffer. Lambert said he thinks they may own a little bit of
property on the other side of Turnbull Road. Case said he remembers talking to
McCollum about the buffer area. Lambert said McCollum originally wanted to give just
that protection, saying he wouldn't do anything across the road next to city property.
He said the conservation easement is below the dotted line on the map. Case said he'd
like to hear from the developer on what it would look like if a conservation easement
was on the north few feet. He said the precedent becomes more significant down
Turnbull Road. He said he is asking if it's important enough to establish a precedent on
the north side of Turnbull. Lambert said from the survey, it looks like the city owns the
land on the north side.
Bob Grootwassink said he thought the property didn't touch the edge of the woods at
all. Dietz said according to survey, the Grootwassinks are going to be dedicating an
additional 17 feet on the south side of the existing Turnbull Road and it shows no
additional land to the north of Turnbull Road.
Tyra-Lukens suggested putting this under Council conditions and fmd out before the
second reading. Case asked for verification on whether there is land on the north side of
It

the road that is privately owned. Grootwassink said he has no problem with that.Neal
said staff can verify that between first and second readings.
Mosman said she is pleased that lots 1 and 2 were obtained. She said when the
McCollums were owners,they talked about neighbors to the east who cut down 50
mature trees on a weekend. She asked Lambert if someone is bent on breaking the
rules,is there something that is stiff enough as a fine that would deter someone from
doing this. Lambert said that is a question for the city attorney.
Rosow said in instances such as this,in addition to a civil action, you could charge
under a misdemeanor and seek restitution for the value of the trees. He said the district
court doesn't look kindly on use of the criminal process for a lot of code enforcement
type issues, so you would want to use it with discretion. Mosman said the idea would
be to be proactive enough and have something with a strict enough consequence if
someone ruined part of the conservation easement. Rosow said the tools are there to
charge violation of the ordinance as a misdemeanor and to go through that court
process and seek restitution from someone who cut down a significant number of trees.
Mosman asked what ruling would be for a small or inadvertent encroachment. Rosow
said there is a range of tools in any code violation and the city has worked with
property owners in an administrative fashion to require that they restore city property to
its original condition,talking with them and explaining what they need to do. He said in
situations where people cut down trees, it may take more than administrative tools.He
said it would not be extremely difficult to prove intent and that through working with
the district court to impose fines that are a significant deterrent and seek restitution;the
city could send a message that it is not acceptable behavior.
Mosman asked if it had been previously discussed about putting in some type of post to
show where public property started so that ignorance would not be a reason or an
excuse. Lambert said there was a plastic post put in the ground and people tend to pull
it out.He said people tend to remove the post no matter what kind of post is put in.
Mosman said this in no way reflects on the new owners. Tyra-Lukens clarified that this
is no reflection on the property owners and there has been no violation of code at this
point. She said the current discussion is in general terms only and the owners have not
yet built a structure on the property.
Butcher said she likes this plan and it is different than the McCollum plan in that it
protects the bluff, she would like a conservation easement, and it is a good model for
the area. She asked what the one dissent was about in the Community Planning Board
vote of 8-1. She said there was nothing about that in the notes. Franzen said he does not
believe there is anything in the minutes that talks about the reason for denial.He said
he guesses the concern may have been whether or not adequate safeguards are in place
or that the reasons attached for granting of the variance.
Butcher said she is in favor of this and likes the way it protects natural resources though
after it is determined if there is ownership of land on the north side of Turnbull, she

would like to see a condition placed that if it is a nominal amount of land then that be
turned over to the city.
Gary Stevens, 17650 Flying Cloud Drive, said he is pleased that the area will be
protected and he thinks it's wonderful that the city continues to not allow high density
housing in the area.
Jeff Strate, 15021 Summer Hill Drive, asked if the MUSA line includes the bluff top.
Mosman said it looks like it comes right along the edge of the house that is proposed
and the rest of the property is beyond the MUSA line. Strate said Turnbull Road is a
private road and asked if neighbors who live along it own sections of it. Dietz said he
recalls that there was a Turnbull subdivision and a portion of the roadway was
dedicated for right of way and the westerly end at Dell Road is still private but this will
be clarified by second reading.
Strate said this area should be as low density as possible. He said the important land is
not so much the bluff,but the Riley Creek conservation area. He asked if there is some
way the city could work out a concept with the land owners and developers on this
property that would apply to the other properties as much as possible. He said once the
Turnbull Road situation is worked out,perhaps an arrangement could be made for land
owners to deed a strip of land adjacent to the big woods to the city. He also suggested
realigning Turnbull Road to the south to add more buffer to the Riley Creek Big
Woods.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Butcher,to close the Public Hearing. Motion
carried 5-0.
Case said the implications on the north side of the road become greater heading east on
Turnbull and even if there is three feet on the north side of the road on this property, it
might be smart to set the precedent of at least acknowledging that the buffer is a critical
component of future development along that road.
MOTION: Mosman moved, seconded by Case,to adopt the Resolution for Planned
Unit Development Concept Review on 7.88 acres; and approve 1st Reading of the
Ordinance for Planned Unit Development District Review and Zoning District
Amendment in the Rural District on 7.88 with waivers on 7.88 acres; and
Adopt the Resolution for Preliminary Plat on 7.88 acres into 2 lots; and direct Staff to
prepare a Development Agreement incorporating Staff and Board recommendations
and Council conditions. Motion carried 5-0.
VIII. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Mosman, to approve the Payment of Claims. The
motion was approved on a roll call vote,with Butcher, Case,Mosman,Young and Tyra-
Lukens voting"aye."

1. Automatic Sprinklers—Citizen Concern
Tyra-Lukens reported information was conveyed to her from a resident who
was upset when they were driving in a rainstorm and saw automatic sprinklers
operating on city and school district properties. She asked if the City could look
into the cost of devices that will not go on when rain is detected. She said the
information could be passed along to the school district also and show that the
City and school district are concerned about conservation.Neal said staff will
look into it. Case noted that the school district uses some wells that are not on
city water.
2. Hockey Rink Issue
Tyra-Lukens said she also wants to respond to the hockey rink issue from Open
Podium tonight. She said in trying to meet the needs of citizens, a hockey group
is willing to pay for something and the possibility of whether it's feasible
should be explored.Neal said it sounds like Council is interested in seeing a
proposal and from staff stand point,the first thing is to ask for a more detailed
proposal.He said the process has already started with the Community
Development regulatory process.
Young said he is concerned about how neighbors would feel about structures
being built there and what the structures would look like.Neal said staff will
provide as much information as possible during the next couple weeks.
Butcher said she is concerned about the neighbors also because there are
standards in neighborhoods, so it would be a good idea to get input from
neighbors.Neal said there would probably be a public hearing as staff looks at
the regulatory process for the project and there will be a way to involve the
Parks and Recreation board.
B. REPORT OF CITY MANAGER
1. Clean Indoor Air Task Force Report
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
June 15,2004
Page 10
Neal said earlier this spring the final report was received from the Clean Indoor
Air Task Force. He said staff looked at the report he wants to provide his
recommendation based on their report. He said generally,his recommendations
involve the following:
• He believes the City should proceed with development of the program as
recommended by the task force with the exception of organizing a
newspaper campaign as it is not an appropriate activity for City staff;
and also to take a look at reevaluating the use of the star symbol as it
already has a use in the hospitality industry.
• The program should be launched during the November Smoke Out later
this year.
• Whatever program is adopted, it should be coordinated with the tri-city
non-smoking restaurant and hospitality oriented program that exists in
Edina,Richfield and Bloomington.
• Assign Molly Kuavimaki to be the lead staff person to manage the
program.
Young said he is unclear on Recommended Business Marketing Strategy in that
the remainder of efforts would be undertaken by City staff. Neal said City staff
would be in charge of essentially marketing the program,but he would draw a
line between marketing the program and political advocacy for the program.
Young asked who is going to do Recommended Consumer Marketing. Neal said
citizens would be encouraged to participate,but it would probably be done
through the same marketing used to get businesses to participate in the program.
Young asked if II.B.l. is out.Neal said yes. Young asked if trinkets,t-shirts,
booths at community events,brochure, and web site update are in.Neal said
those particular items he has taken to be suggestions about how to market the
program. Young asked if there is a budget for the program. Neal said the budget
was estimated at$9,000 per year, exclusive of staff.
Young asked if use of the star symbol was a critical component of the
recommendation. Neal said that might be an exception that the group that put
this together might have with him,but those involved have a common goal of
getting the program accepted by the people they want it to be accepted by. Neal
said if a group chooses not to participate simply because of the symbol, then a
symbol that they would be comfortable with should be chosen. He said he spoke
with Pat MulQueeny of the Chamber of Commerce about the recommendation
and he was satisfied that it was a good recommendation and he pledged to work
with the City to figure out what symbol would be best to use.
MOTION: Mosman moved, seconded by Case, to accept the City Manager's
recommendations on the Clean Indoor Air Task Force program. Motion
carried 4-1 with Young opposed.

Police Approval of Amendment to 2004 Towing Services
Robert L.Reynolds Agreement
Requested Action:
Move to: Approve the amendment of the 2004 Agreement for Towing Services between the City
of Eden Prairie and Matt's Auto Service.
Synopsis:
This is an amendment to the 2004 agreement with Matt's Auto for towing services. The
amendment raises the impound fee from$75 to $80. The increase is due to the increase in fuel
costs.
Background Information:
We discussed the possibility of this change at the time the original towing agreement was
drafted, but Mr. Strodel requested to wait until gas prices actually went up to increase his
impound fee. As predicted, the price of gas did increase significantly resulting in a sizeable
increase to Mr. Strodel's operating costs. This adjustment would not result in any extra cost to
the City as this fee is paid by the registered owner of the vehicle. The adjustment is a fair price
and it is comparable to agreements from neighboring communities.

Police/Support Operations Div
Requested Action
Move to: Approve Frequency Relocation Agreement between the City and Nextel West
Corporation(Nextel) Inc.
Synopsis
This agreement will permit the City to trade two radio frequencies licensed to the City to Nextel
in exchange for two different radio frequencies licensed to Nextel.
Background Information
Two radio channels that have been licensed to the City of Eden Prairie since 1978 cannot be used
at the radio tower constructed in 2000 due to an FCC rule which mandates a certain geographic
separation between co-channel users. In this case,Nextel is the co-channel user. In an effort to
assist the City in increasing it's radio system's capacity, Nextel has agreed to trade two of their
channels for the two channels in question. This trade will allow unencumbered operation for the
City and increase the useful life cycle of the City's existing trunked radio network.
There are no direct costs associated with this agreement other than the administrative costs
associated with the agreement. Technical modifications of existing equipment in support of this
project will be accomplished within the 2004 Wireless Communications budget. No other funds
are required or requested.
The agreement has been reviewed by the City Attorney for form and legality.

Director of Parks &Recreation Steven Brown Land Donation
Requested Action
Move to: Accept the land donation from Steve Brown, adding approximately four acres of land
to the Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area.
Synopsis
Last week Steven Brown donated approximately four acres of land along the Minnesota River Bluffs,
immediately east of the Richard T.Anderson Conservation Area to the City of Eden Prairie.
This addition to the Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area does comply with the Park and Open
Space Plan. There are no obligations assumed by the City for accepting this gift, and no
environmental audit is required.
Attached to this memorandum are a letter from Mr. Brown and a copy of two photos depicting one of
the ponds created on this property in the early 1970's and the reference to this proposed addition in
the Park and Open Space Plan.
Background
When Mr. Brown originally discussed the possible sub-division of his property at 9950 Dell Road,he
indicated that he would be interested in donating some of his property to the City for park purposes.
He suggested that the City may want to consider recreating the trout pond that he and Darril Peterson
developed in 1970 in order to add that amenity to the Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area. The
donation of the four acres will provide the City with the opportunity of developing a trout pond in
this location. This would be one of the few locations in the metro area that could provide trout fishing
opportunities to the public.
City staff will meet with officials from the Department of Natural Resources to determine the
feasibility of developing and stocking a trout pond in this location. Staff will also investigate the
possibility of funding assistance from the Lower Minnesota Watershed District and the DNR for this
type of project.

Dear Bob,
I thought you might find these photos of our former trout ponds interesting.
In about 1970 Don Woods and Warren Scidmore from the Minnesota DNR came
out to advise us on the project. They measured the flow at about 400 gallons/minute
from the main spring north of the highway and felt that this amount of water would
service 3 ponds--two on our land and one on the adjacent Peterson property. We then
hired Frank Kadlac from Chaska to come in with a large dragline on pads and dig out
the ponds and construct the surrounding dikes and overflow structures. Our upper
pond was about 70'in length and originally 16 feet deep;the lower pond was the same
depth but smaller in diameter.
Rainbow trout were purchased from Trout Aire--2,000 fish 6-9" and 1,000 fish
10-12". Also 500 fingerlings were placed in a small, upper holding area but were soon
eaten by herons. Jim Wilkie had similar ponds near his home on Riverview Road and
warned us that we would be unable to keep the poachers away for long. He was
right--I am sure many more fish were stolen than taken by our family and friends.
The ponds held up well until the big storm of 1987 when they silted almost
completely full.
Although the DNR said the trout would survive for only 3 or 4 years,we still had
at least 4 old timers,well over 2 feet in length,in 1987. These disappeared that year.
It is interesting that the area today appears almost the same as it did before we
began the project many years ago,with trees and grass growing in the silted over
areas.

RICHARD T.ANDERSON CONSERVATION AREA
Location: 18700 Flying Cloud Drive
Size (in acres): Developed—3.0;Undeveloped— 118.0;Total—121.0
Classification: Conservation Area
Character: Bluff area adjacent to Minnesota River containing native prairie to
old growth maple,basswood and oak forest.
Adjacent Land Uses: Single-familyresidential
Physical Features: This area includes a mixture of big woods, oak savannah and
upland prairie.
Existing Facilities: • Upper parking lot for six cars
• 2.4 miles of grass surface hiking trails
• Lower parking lot for 20 cars—developed in 2003
0 Special Use Groups: Neighborhood and community-wide usage.
•
Problematic Conditions: Several areas of this site are very steep and have experienced
severe erosion in past years. Stabilization of those areas is a
• priority. In addition, removal of much of the invasive non-native
plant material throughout the site will be necessary to reduce its
impact on the desired native species. The single-family residential
development along the north end provides access for two
trailheads. Development of the soft surface trail system was
completed during 1999-2002.
A final management report for the entire site was completed
in 1999.
Notes and Comments: One Native American burial mound associated with the FieIdman
Group exists within the Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area.
This should be field verified by an archaeologist prior to trail
development. This site has high value for interpretation of
historical and environmental features.
Future acquisition of the eastern valley would allow restoration of
the trout ponds that were destroyed in the 1987 super storm.

Requested Action
Move to:
• Close the Public Hearing; and
• Adopt the Resolution for Preliminary Plat on 1.26 acres into 2 lots; and
• Direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating Staff and Board
recommendations and Council conditions.
Synopsis
The proposal is to subdivide the 1.26 acres into two single-family lots.
Community Planning Board Recommendation
At the June 14, 2004 meeting the Community Planning Board voted 5-0 to recommend approval
of the project to the City Council based on the condition that the site plan be revised to locate the
house farther back on the property. This would allow additional room for guest parking and a
turnaround so cars would not have to back on to Mitchell Road. The plans have been revised
according to the recommendations of the Community Planning Board.
Background Information
The existing home on the site is to remain. Lot 1 is 30,750 square feet and Lot 2 is 25,883
square feet in size. City Code requires a minimum lot size of 22,000 square feet in the R1-22
Zoning District. The existing and proposed lots meet City Code for R1-22 requirements.

Staff Report—Patterson Property

BACKGROUND
The property is zoned R1-22. Surrounding land uses consist of single-family residential.
PRELIMINARY PLAT
The proposal is to subdivide the 1.26 acre site into two single-family lots with access to the
second lot from Mitchell Road. The existing home on the site is to remain. Lot 1 is 30,750
square feet and Lot 2 is 25,883 square feet in size. City Code requires a minimum lot size of
22,000 square feet in the R1-22 Zoning District. The existing and proposed lots meet City Code
for R1-22 requirements.
DRIVEWAY PERMIT
The applicant was granted a driveway permit in 2000 for a second access to the existing house.
The City policy for driveway access to collector roads is that the driveway is a secondary access
for existing houses. The lot to the east of this site was created over 30 years ago with frontage on
Sunrise Circle and Mitchell Road. There is no record of access control for this lot. In 1995 a
building permit was issued for the lot to the east with an access to Mitchell Road.
ACCESS
In 1991 the City conducted a feasibility study for the purpose of sewer, water, and road
improvements. The study also identified which lots had future development potential. The study
showed a second lot for this property with an access from Sunrise Circle. The owner would like
to use the curb cut on Mitchell Road as the primary access to the new house. The City can
exercise access control through the subdivision process. Access for the new lot should be from
Sunrise Circle. See Exhibit A for the proposed feasibility plan.
GRADING AND TREE LOSS
There are 10 significant trees totaling 160 inches on the property that maybe impacted by a new
driveway to provide access to the second lot. The site is relatively flat and minimal grading
would be necessary. Only two of the trees would need to be removed to build a 10 foot wide
driveway. There are 27 non significant crabapple and conifer trees that would be impacted by the
new driveway; however these trees are small enough to be machine moved. Relocating the trees
between the new driveway and the existing house would help provide a buffer.
UTILITIES
The plans show utilizing the existing utility services located in Sunrise Circle West.

SUMMARY
A second lot (flag lot) is consistent with development patterns in the area. The lots to the west
are flag lots. The proposed lot meets the requirements of the R1-22 zoning district. The plan
should be revised to show a flag lot. A ten foot wide driveway can be constructed with minimal
tree impacts. Small trees can be relocated between the proposed driveway and the existing house.
Although the existing driveway access on Mitchell Road meets site vision distance, this
driveway access should be removed as a condition of subdivision approval.
RECOMMENDATION
Recommend approval of the following request:
• Preliminary Plat of 1.26 acres into 2 lots
This is based on plans dated June 9, 2004,and the following conditions:
1. Prior to City Council review the proponent shall.
A. Revise the plans to show a driveway access from Sunrise Circle to the
second lot.
B. Submit a tree inventory and replacement plan detailing tree impacts.
2. Prior to grading permit issuance, the proponent shall:
A. Prior to any grading, tree removal or building permit for the property, the
proponent shall install erosion control and tree protection fencing at the grading
limits.
B. Submit detailed storm water runoff, utility, and erosion control plans for review
and approval by the City Engineer and Watershed District.
3. Prior to building permit issuance for the property, the proponent shall:
A. Provide a tree replacement surety equivalent to 150% of the cost of the tree
replacement improvements indicated on the approved plan.
B. Pay the Cash Park Fee.

V. PUBLIC HEARING
A. PATTERSON PROPERTY by Dave Patterson. Request for Preliminary Plat of
1.26 acres into 2 lots. Location: 15340 Sunrise Circle West.
•
Dave Patterson, 15340 Sunrise Circle West, explained that in 1995 he checked
into the feasibility of splitting his lot in the future and was informed"that he could
split his lot through administrative approval. Peterson said he was not able to
move forward at that time. In 2000, Peterson decided to proceed with the lot split
and install driveway access off of Mitchell Road instead of.Sunrise Circle. There
are four lots to the west of the property-with two having access-off of Sunrise and
two are flag lots. Lots to the east of theproperty touches Sunrise Circle and
Mitchell Road,which are similar to his lot:,P tterson.indicated/he was told if he
met requirements,he could install the driveway access and.pro'ceed. Patterson
said he was not able to proceed at that'time; however the driveway access was
installed. In the fall of 2003, Patterson said he hired-Westwood Professional to
put together preliminary plat drawings. Patterson said that when he proposed the
drawings,he was told that there were some requirements that were not met and he
changed his plans to meet the additional requirements. Patterson said he is ready
to proceed,but has been told there are issues that City policy will not allow.
Patterson said he disagreed with the staffireport in regard to grading and tree loss
where it says that only two trees would need to bp/removed to build a 10-foot
wide driveway. Patterson said that is correct if the driveway were built very close
to his house otherwise a lot more trees would have tq`be removed. Patterson said
that he talked with his neighbors to the wet and they expressed that they would
not like his property to be a flag,lot. Patterson-said his neighbors do not have a
problem with his plans.
i" .
Franzen said that Patterson is dealing with a City policy on access. The City has
the authority to decide in the subdivision process where the access can be placed.
Franzen said that there is nothing wrong with-the proposal as it fits in with the
neighborhood,but the Board,has to decide where the best access should be
located. Franzen said that the CityEngineer should address some of the access
concerns.,
Gray said that the concern of access off of Mitchell Road is the visibility and site
distance. Gray,.said that the access'is not reasonable if the homeowner has to back
out of the site. Gray said-that the alternatives are: to create the lot with access off
of Mitchell Road, create a flag lot type of lot which would connect it to the
Sunrise neighborhood, or there would be no subdivision at all. Gray said that the
concern about theproposal is that its only access is off of Mitchell Road. This
driveway is very close'to the crest of the hill on Mitchell Road. The two issues of
access off of Mitchell road is site distance and there is no parking. If cars are
parked'in the driveway they willneed to back out of the driveway,which is not a

safe situation. Gray said that the problem with the proposal is that it may be very
difficult to turn around and back into the driveway. Gray said that the proposal
needs to have a lot more turn-around space,a lot more driveway space available.
Gray said that it would work better if it.were a flag,lot with access off of Sunrise
Circle.
Stoltz asked what the minimum site requirements are.
Gray said there is no site distance,design chart for backing out of a driveway. The
site distance backing out of a driveway is probably double'of what it would be if a
person were not backing out of the driveway. Also,there is no parking on
Mitchell Road.
Franzen asked Gray if the access were face-forward into the street,would he be
more comfortable with allowing the access off of Mitchell Road. Franzen asked
Patterson if the house could be moved back further to add room for parking.
•
Gray said that if the house was back farther and the driveway was larger and
circular, it would lessen guests from backing out of the driveway.
Patterson said he was amenable to changing his plans to move the house back and
adding a circular driveway.
Kacher asked Patterson if he,went to the City at one time and was given
permission to get the driveway;access off of Mitchell Road.
Patterson said that the City did grant permission to have driveway access off of
Mitchell Road.
Franzen said that in the past there was not a subdivision request so the City had an
obligation to grant the permit. Franzen said the Board has to decide where is the
best place to have access for the preliminary plat request.
Eugene Gray, 9040 Sunrise'Circle East, said that it is an issue of doing the right
thing. Gray said his neighbor was granted a permit to access Mitchell Road and
does not want another driveway off of Sunrise Circle. Gray preferred the access
be off of Mitchell Road.
Seymour.asked Franzen if they allowed the driveway onto Mitchell Road, would
the Board get the opportunity to look at the plans for the development and the
driveway.
Franzen said that if the Board recommends approval,they would have to ask for a
continuance to see the plans or they could have staff approve the plans.

Stoelting asked Patterson if he was willing to work with staff and possibly adjust
his development plans.
Patterson said he was willing to work with staff.
MOTION by Seymour, seconded by Nelson to close the public/hearing. Motion
carried 5-0.
MOTION by Seymour, seconded by Kacher to approve the request for
preliminary plat of 1.26 acres into lots at 15340 Sunrise Circle West based on
plans dated June 9, 2004 subject to recommendations of the staff report dated
June 11, 2004 and have staff work with the developer to come up with a driveway
and parking solution that will enhance the entrance of the new lot. Motion
carried 5-0.
Stoelting added that the plans should have enough parking and egress from the
property, and they would have to drive forward rather than backward.
Franzen said he would work with the developer to figure something out and report
back to the Board on the solutions.

Office of the City Manager First Reading of an Ordinance to Amend City
Michael Barone, Assistant to the Code Section 2.05 relating to Salaries of the
City Manager Mayor and Council Members
Requested Action
Move to: Approve the First Reading of an Ordinance amending City Code Chapter 2 by
amending Section 2.05 relating to salaries of the Mayor and Council Members; and
adopting by reference City Code Chapter 1 and Section 2.99 which, among other things,
contain penalty provisions.
Synopsis
Attached is the ordinance seeking to amend City Code Section 2.05, Subd. 1,related to
increasing the monthly salary of the Mayor;to amend City Code Section 2.05, Subd. 2,related to
increasing the monthly salary of each Council Member; and to amend City Code Section 2.05,
Subd. 3, Subpart A so the Mayor and each Council Member shall be paid $35.00 a day for
attending special meetings of the Council and other meetings involving City business regardless
of the length or number of meetings attended that day, all effective after December 31, 2004.
City Manager Scott Neal had Assistant to the City Manager Michael Barone research how Eden
Prairie's elected officials compare in their compensation to other cities,utilizing primarily the
Municipal Legislative Commission(MLC)cities as a comparison.
The research showed that the pay for the Mayor and Council Members is in the lower half of
surveyed cities for pay. It has been 12 years since the salaries for the Mayor and Council
Members have been increased in Eden Prairie, and just this once in the past 18 years.
The meeting pay adjustment is being made to simplify the bookkeeping process for this pay,
keeping intact the activities that qualify for payment. This section of the ordinance was
originally adopted by the City Council on October 29, 1992, effective January 1, 1993,

Requested Action
Move to: Approve First Reading of an Ordinance amending City Code Chapter 2 by adding
Section 2.33 relating to Obtaining Criminal History Information
Synopsis
To preserve public safety and trust,the City currently conducts criminal background checks for
finalists of selected positions. The criminal background checks are done through the Bureau of
Criminal Affairs (BCA). The fee for each background check is $15 and the City spends
approximately$4,000 on criminal background checks annually. Our Police Department has
access to the BCA's Criminal Justice Information System (CJIS),but cannot conduct
employment background checks that are not related to police operations without a city ordinance
giving that authority.
The proposed ordinance will allow us to conduct background checks internally for all individuals
who are finalists for regular city employment and paid-on call firefighters. The ordinance also
outlines the conditions under which we would seek background checks for part-time/seasonal
employees, volunteers, and contractors. The adoption of the ordinance will streamline the hiring
the process, save money, and apply consistent criteria to the use of criminal background checks.

Minneapolis Concrete Sawing and Drilling.
Background Information
The floor in Rink 1 is in need of replacement of all its components. This process would have
been completed with the passing of the referendum and with other funds. The floor is in total
disrepair with Freon leaks throughout and the floor frost control system losing all its Glycol to
the ground below. Replacement is the only recourse for Rink 1.

Minneapolis Concrete Sawing and Drilling $39,655.00
anhall Co_ $69,135.00

The spread between the two bids likely indicate the difference in experience in removing direct

plans and specifications for this project but did not submit a bid.
We had a telephone conversation with Minneapolis Concrete Sawing and Drilling to discuss their bid
and the scope of the project They feel comfortable with the bid they submitted and can
successfully complete the project in the scheduled timeframe. We recommend the project be
awarded to the low bidder Minneapolis Concrete Sawing and Drilling.
The selected contractor is required to submit a performance and payment bond in the total amount
of the bid within 10 days after the award of the contract or prior to starting work. We will send out
construction contracts to the contractor tomorrow. Work on this project is scheduled to begin on
.a ulv 12,2004 and completed by July 23,2004. If you have any questions after reviewing this letter

Office of the City Manager Resolution Urging Hennepin County Board of

Free
Ordinance Prohibiting Smoking in Places of `J ,
Employment and Restaurants
Requested Action
Move to: Adopt Resolution urging Hennepin County Board of Commissioners to enact a
county-wide smoke-free Ordinance prohibiting smoking in places of employment and
restaurants.
Synopsis
This resolution was drafted and placed on this City Council agenda at the request of Mayor Tyra-
Lukens. This resolution is a modification of Resolution#2002-173 adopted by the City Council
on October 15, 2002. Resolution#2002-173 was adopted by the Council as part of its closure of
discussion of a proposal to ban smoking in the City's public places and places of employment.
Resolution#2002-173 was intended as a statement of advocacy from the City Council to the
Minnesota State Legislature to address the issue of public smoking at the state government level.
This resolution modifies Resolution#2002-173 by replacing the redirecting the same advocacy
to the Hennepin County Board of Commissioners. This resolution asks the Hennepin County
Board of Commissions to address the issue of public smoking and to establish a County-wide
ordinance that would limit or eliminate smoking in public places and places of employment in
Hennepin County.

RESOLUTION SUPPORTING,ADVOCATING AND URGING THE HENNEPIN
COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS TO ENACT A COUNTY-WIDE SMOKE
FREE ORDINANCE PROHIBITING SMOKING IN PLACES OF EMPLOYMENT AND
RESTAURANTS
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Eden Prairie, Minnesota (the
"City"), as follows:
WHEREAS The Eden Prairie City Council does hereby find that:
(1) Numerous studies have found that tobacco smoke is a major contributor to
indoor air pollution, and that breathing secondhand smoke (also known as
environmental tobacco smoke)is a cause of disease in healthy
nonsmokers, including heart disease, stroke,respiratory disease, and lung
cancer. The U.S. Surgeon General has determined that secondhand smoke
is responsible for the early deaths of 65,000 Americans annually.
(2) The Public Health Service's National Toxicology Program has listed
secondhand smoke as a known carcinogen(U.S. DHHS, 2000, citing Cal.
EPA, 1997).
(3) Secondhand smoke is particularly hazardous to elderly people, individuals
with cardiovascular disease, and individuals with impaired respiratory
function, including asthmatics and those with obstructive airway disease.
Children exposed to secondhand smoke have an increased risk of asthma,
respiratory infections, sudden infant death syndrome, developmental
abnormalities, and cancer.
(4) The Americans With Disabilities Act,which requires that disabled persons
have access to public places and workplaces, deems impaired respiratory
function to be a disability.
(5) The U.S. Surgeon General has determined that the simple separation of
smokers and nonsmokers within the same air space may reduce,but does
not eliminate,the exposure of nonsmokers to secondhand smoke. The
Environmental Protection Agency has determined that secondhand smoke
cannot be reduced to safe levels in businesses by high rates of ventilation.
Air cleaners,which are only capable of filtering the particulate matter and
odors in smoke, do not eliminate the known toxins in secondhand smoke.
(6) A significant amount of secondhand smoke exposure occurs in the
workplace. Employees who work in smoke-filled businesses suffer a 25-
50%higher risk of heart attack and higher rates of death from
cardiovascular disease and cancer, as well as increased acute respiratory
disease and measurable decrease in lung function.
(7) Smoke-filled workplaces result in higher worker absenteeism due to
respiratory disease,lower productivity,higher cleaning and maintenance
costs, increased health insurance rates, and increased liability claims for
diseases related to exposure to secondhand smoke.
(8) Smoking is a potential cause of fires.
WHEREAS, Eden Prairie residents and business community are concerned that the
enactment of a local ordinance prohibiting smoking in places of employment and restaurants will
have a negative effect on the community's businesses because businesses in adjacent
communities will not be subject to the same regulation; and
WHEREAS, the Eden Prairie City Council has heard from many residents and
businesses that a county-wide smoke free ordinance is more appropriate than a local ordinance so
as to not place at a disadvantage the businesses of this or any other individual community; and
WHEREAS the City deems it prudent,reasonable and necessary to support, advocate and
urge the passage of a county-wide ordinance(1)to protect the public health and welfare by
prohibiting smoking in public places and places of employment; and(2)to guarantee the right of
nonsmokers to breathe smoke free air, and to recognize that the need to breathe smoke free air
shall have priority over the desire to smoke.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE,
MINNESOTA THAT:
The City Council hereby supports, advocates and urges the Hennepin County Board of
Commissioners enact an ordinance establishing all places of employment and restaurants in
Hennepin County as smoke free.
ADOPTED by the City Council this 6th day of July 2004.

environmental tobacco smoke)is a cause of disease in healthy
nonsmokers,including heart disease,stroke,respiratory disease,and lung
cancer. The U.S. Surgeon General has determined that secondhand smoke
is responsible for the early deaths of 65,000 Americans annually.
(2) The Public Health Service's National Toxicology Program has listed
secondhand smoke as a known carcinogen(U.S.DHHS, 2000, citing Cal.
EPA, 1997).
(3) Secondhand smoke is particularly hazardous to elderly people,individuals
with cardiovascular disease, and individuals with impaired respiratory
function,including asthmatics and those with obstructive airway disease.
Children exposed to secondhand smoke have an increased risk of asthma,
respiratory infections, sudden infant death syndrome, developmental
abnormalities,and cancer.
(4) The Americans With Disabilities Act,which requires that disabled persons
have access to public places and workplaces, deems impaired respiratory
function to be a disability.
(5) The U.S. Surgeon General has determined that the simple separation of'
smokers and nonsmokers within the same air space may reduce,but does
not eliminate,the exposure of nonsmokers to secondhand smoke. The
Environmental Protection Agency has determined that secondhand smoke
cannot be reduced to safe levels in businesses by high rates of ventilation.
Air cleaners,which are only capable of filtering the particulate matter and
odors in smoke,do not eliminate the blown toxins in secondhand smoke.

(6) A significant amount of secondhand smoke exposure occurs in the
workplace. Employees who work in smoke-filled businesses suffer a 25-
50%higher risk of heart attack and higher rates of death from
cardiovascular disease and cancer,as well as increased acute respiratory
disease and measurable decrease in lung function.
(7) Smoke-filled workplaces result in higher worker absenteeism due to
respiratory disease,lower productivity,higher cleaning and maintenance
costs, increased health insurance rates,and increased liability claims for
diseases related to exposure to secondhand smoke.
(8) Smoking is a potential cause of fires.
WHEREAS, Eden Prairie residents and business community are concerned that the
enactment of a local ordinance prohibiting smoking in places of employment and restaurants will
have a negative effect on the community's businesses because businesses in adjacent
communities will not be subject to the same regulation;
WHEREAS, the Eden Prairie City Council has heard from many residents and
businesses that a state wide smoke free law is more appropriate than a local ordinance so as to
not place at a disadvantage the businesses of this or any other individual community; and
WHEREAS the City deems it prudent,reasonable and necessary to support,advocate and
urge the passage of state wide legislation(1)to protect the public health and welfare by
prohibiting smoking in public places and places of employment;and(2)to guarantee the right of
nonsmokers to breathe smoke free air, and to recognize that the need to breathe smoke free air
shall have priority over the desire to smoke.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE,
MINNESOTA THAT:
The City Council hereby supports, advocates and urges the Minnesota State Legislature to
enact during the 2003 Legislative Session a law establishing all Minnesota places of employment

Subject: RE: Resolution
Scott,
I have read the resolution that the Eden Prairie City Council is looking to pass this evening asking
the County to pass a County-wide smoking ban. The Chamber views this action as unnecessary
and would question why the city would take such action without having additional open dialogue
with the businesses affected.
As you know, the Chamber held numerous meetings with not only restaurant owner/managers,
but heard from major employers in Eden Prairie who were against a ban. There first choice was
not to have a ban and the second choice most often stated was to do this state-wide. We did not
hear any of the businesses that were concerned with the ban state they wanted a county-wide
ban.
As the Chamber stated in its resolution to the City Council on September 12, 2002, "..the Eden
Prairie Chamber does not support unduly burdensome governmental regulations, which may
negatively impact our member businesses." Our members told us their concerns with a smoking
ban at that time, and these same issues would pertain to a county-wide ban. Simply put, Eden
Prairie businesses compete with the neighboring border counties of Scott and Carver. The cities
of Shakopee, Chanhassen and Chaska not only have restaurant/bars that compete with Eden
Prairie, but very large industrial parks that are home to major manufacturers. These industrial
parks may recruit employees and employers away from Eden Prairie.
As our economy continues to grow, putting in place a government regulation that allows
businesses in these surrounding communities the opportunity to openly attract both consumers
and employees away from our businesses doesn't make sense. Especially as the city is finalizing
its voluntary Clean Indoor Air program. As you may recall some of our very largest employers
were against the city's efforts in the original smoking ban debate because of these same
reasons. Have these employers, or others, been contacted to allow them the opportunity to
speak on this matter?
Our recommendation is that the city postpone action this evening and take the time to gather
feedback from the businesses here on this issue. Once this is done, the city will be able to base
its decisions on having everyone's view points. The Chamber would be happy to help coordinate
these meetings with the business community.
Please let me know how the Chamber can be of assistance. Also-please print a copy of this for
each council member-I copied them via e-mail but do not know how often they check it.
Sincerely,
Pat MulQueeny, IOM
