Trends Affecting the Major Center Area (MCA):
February 16, 2005
Study Area
The MCA functions as Eden Prairie's "downtown, with the Eden Prairie Mall as the
retail core for the regional area. The surrounding retail, service and office components
build upon and support the commercial core nature of the area. The City's 2020 land use
plan calls for continued land use transitions towards commercial uses in the MCA. The
recent addition of residential and transit uses in the area reinforces the city center
character of the area.
The study area surrounds the intersection of 1-494, TH 212 and TH 5. An outer ring road
consisting of Prairie Center Drive and Valley View Road provides circulation between
the various sub areas of the MCA. The study area is predominantly defined by those land
uses that are bound within the outer ring road or those that directly abut the outer ring
road (see Figure 1).
The MCA is an auto-oriented area with initial elements of commuter transit service. LRT
could offer redevelopment opportunities. Pedestrian connections and usable open space
is lacking .Parking lots cover over half of the private land area and offer a resource for
future redevelopment and revitalization.
Introduction
The following section is a concise description of existing conditions, land use,
transportation and transit trends, and resulting future vision implications.
Land Use and Transit Trends
Land use in the MCA is a mix of retail, office, residential and services (see Figures 2 and
3).Recent development has been primarily retail with some new residences.While the
area has a mix of uses, the distances and lack of pedestrian connection means circulation
is almost exclusively by private auto. The land use guide plan envisions most of the area
as future Regional Commercial land use.
The Southwest Metro transit hub is located on the fringe of the MCA. This limits
walking access to frequent transit service. An alignment alternative of the planned
Southwest LRT Corridor does include a stop closer to the center of the study area.
Mobility in the Twin Cities has been declining as traffic congestion increases and few
new road and transit improvements have been made. The desire for close-to-home
shopping, entertainment and employment will continue and be stronger.
1
Transit use is typically higher for the home-work-home trip compared to home-retail-
home trip. Transit use is inversely correlated with the availability of ample free parking
(transit use is higher where pay parking occurs or parking near the destination is limited).
However, the extension of the Hiawatha light rail transit to the Mall of America is
showing the potential to change these patterns.
Many new developments incorporate mixed use in a compact area with greater density to
support transit, walkability and other goals.
Implications:
1.Convenient access to community commercial, entertainment and services will
likely grow in importance and regional influence may decline or the focus may
shift to the sub regional trade area. This may influence the types of retail and
service uses. Should this area become Eden Prairie's "downtown" with a greater
mix of uses and a more compact form?
2.Regional transit improvements, such as LRT, are likely to benefit primarily
home-work-home trips. The areas near transit stops/centers are an opportunity
for mixed use and service nodes serving commuters needs.
3.Transit improvements are not likely to have a significant effect upon most retail
and restaurant businesses unless a Southwest Corridor station is located near the
center of the MCA and/or circulator transit service is provided.
4.Consider adding employment and residential uses to achieve more of a balance
of employment, residential and retail uses.
Parking
Parking is the primary land use in the MCA (see Figure 4). Parking covers
approximately 65% of the private land area.
Implications:
1.Underutilized parking areas present tremendous infill and redevelopment
opportunities.
2.Structured parking is likely to be more prevalent in the future. Shared parking
between compatible uses is an opportunity for land use efficiency.
3.Complementary land use mix can effectively use available parking resources.
2
Parks and Open Space
The trend is for new development to be focused on public or private open space. The
MCA has very little usable open space (see Figure 5). Intensifying land use and
residential density will increase the priority for public/private open spaces.
1.Purgatory Creek Recreational Area presents an opportunity for views and access
to public open space and trails.
2.The concept of a linear greenway connection between Purgatory Creek
Recreational Area, Lake Idlewild and Anderson Lakes should be explored. This
greenway could be a defining amenity for redevelopment.
3.Current emphasis on storm water management may create opportunities for
usable open space ,trails ,green space as well as requiring land for water quality
treatment/storage.
4.Civic and urban open space such as plazas and pocket parks should be located
within dense development areas.
Pedestrian and Bicycle Accommodations
Increased density, changing land use mix and improved transit will place greater
emphasis on walking and bicycling.
Implications:
1.Safe, comfortable and attractive pedestrian accommodations should be integral to
public infrastructure and private site development.
2.A network of bicycle provisions and multi-use trails should provide alternative
transportation and connect with significant open space.
3.Streetscaping and boulevard treatment reinforces a positive image, an attractive
pedestrian scale and builds value for abutting businesses.
Wayfinding
The MCA has fairly good regional access, but the access is not logical or intuitive. The
MCA is bisected by 1-494, TH 212 and TH 5, and the TH 5/1-494 interchange (see Figure
6).A combination of Prairie Center Drive and Valley View Road creates an "outer ring
road that circulates vehicles across the freeways and through the MCA. The access
works well for employees and residents who quickly learn the "best" routes. However,
first time visitors to restaurants or retail stores can be frustrated by access difficulties.
3
The configuration of the MCA creates the following challenges to way-finding at the sub
regional and local street network levels:
Sub Regional Issues:
There are not direct ,easily understood access points between the adjacent freeways and
highways and the MCA.
There is not direct access to or from 1-494 west of the MCA area at Prairie Center Drive
or TH 212.
Regional highway patterns make it difficult for people to understand the MCA as a
comprehensive ,unified district and these roads also limit movement within the MCA.
Road grades on TH 212 south of 1-494 impair sight lines to MCA businesses.
Local Street Network Issues:
The curvilinear nature of the highways and local street network easily disorients visitors
unfamiliar with the MCA.
The Prairie Center Drive/Valley View ring road does not use a consistent name.
There is not a recognizable street grid or hierarchy.
There is not an easily understandable building and street numbering system to help
visitors determine which direction they should be traveling.
There are few recognizable landmarks for orientation.
Implications:
1.Create identifiable sub-districts within the MCA, typically bounded by
freeways/ major roadways that utilize naming conventions and landmarks to
help with visitor orientation.
2.Create a clearly identifiable access point to the MCA from the regional road
system (improve 1-494 access).
3.Name all non-mall shopping districts to reinforce the district identity.
4.Reinforce the outer ring road concept through streetscape design and marketing.
5.Modify street alignments and/or naming, along with signage and streetscaping,
to enhance connectivity and communicate street hierarchy.
4
6.Enhance numbering on buildings or building signage and improve readability of
street signage.
Transportation
The MCA is near the convergence of two major regional facilities , 1-494 and TH 5/312
(Future 212).Existing TH 212 bisects the area providing regional and local access. The
outer ring road of Prairie Center Drive and Valley View Road circumvents the area,
providing local access ,as well as supporting the regional roadways.
TH 212 is at or near its capacity through the study area. In addition, Prairie Center Drive
is operating at or near its capacity at its regional interchanges at TH 5 and 1-494.
Both TH 212, and Prairie Center Drive/Valley View Road serve regional mobility and
local access to the area. During the morning peak hour, the lack of retail traffic allows
the roadway system to operate adequately for commuter traffic volumes.Whereas, the
dual function of these roadways creates a number of operational problems during the
noon and p.m. peak hour. In particular, the number of operational problems along TH
212 indicates that it is currently operating near capacity throughout the study area.
Many of the traffic signals along TH 212, Prairie Center Drive, and Valley View Road
are not coordinated and do not operate as efficiently as possible.
Heavy traffic volumes on TH 212, Prairie Center Drive and Valley View Road make
turning maneuvers onto these corridors difficult at unsignalized intersections during all
peak hours.
Short roadway segments connecting the regional roadways to the mall's internal ring road
limit storage for vehicles exiting the mall which results in congestion and queuing
problems during the peak hour conditions. In addition, wide intersection design further
exacerbates the traffic problems.
The current roadway system lacks adequate capacity to support the heavy commuter
volumes exiting the study area to the south (TH 212 and Preserve Boulevard).
The lack of well defined linear roadways creates unusually high turning movement
volumes which result in operational and queuing problems throughout the study area.
Implications:
1.Continue to manage access throughout the study area to maintain and improve
mobility, particularly along the TH 212, Prairie Center Drive and Valley View
Road corridors.
2.Update and maintain the coordinated signal systems along TH 212,Prairie Center
Drive and Valley View Road to improve mobility in the corridors.
5
3.Convenient access of land uses to signalized intersections along the TH 212,
Prairie Center Drive, and Valley View Road should be promoted. Full un-
signalized access to these corridors is not recommended.
4.Consider future land use changes that provided opportunities to improve the
supporting roadway system.
5.Improve operation of the mall's internal ring road and connection with the larger
transportation system. Consider a one-way system or other geometric
improvements.
6.Transportation improvements that simplify the roadway network for wayfinding,
such as improved 1-494 access and improved roadway connectivity should be
explored.
7.Existing efforts to increase roadway capacity to the south should be continued
(Columbine Road, TH 212 / Prairie Center Drive intersection improvements, new
TH 212 construction).
8.Future increases in traffic volumes may create a need for expanding TH 212 and
Prairie Center Drive.

TO:Mayor, City Council, and Planning Commission
FROM :Janet Jeremiah, Community Development Director
RE:Major Center Area (MCA) Study
DATE:March 1, 2005 Workshop
PURPOSE:
The purpose of the workshop is to update the City Council and Planning Commission
regarding the progress of the Major Center Area (MCA) Study and to receive feedback
regarding the vision for the area which is being formulated by the MCA Task Force.
BACKGROUND:
Last fall, the City Council commissioned a comprehensive study of the Major Center
Area (MCA). The MCA includes about a 1200 acre area within and surrounding the
Prairie Center Drive and Valley View "ring roads . The Council appointed a fourteen
member task force of business and resident representatives to provide input regarding the
future of the area through the year 2030. The Council also approved a contract with SRF
Consulting, Inc. (Barry Warner) working in association with Ingraham & Associates
(Greg Ingraham) to facilitate the study process and complete the land use and traffic
analyses.As the study progresses, Visual Communications (Richard Lang) will also be
involved with providing wayfinding solutions for the area.
The Task Force has now completed two meetings. During their first meeting in
November of 2004, the Task Force provided feedback regarding issues , challenges, and
opportunities for the area. Their second meeting on February 22, 2005 included a review
of trends and implications for the future of the area followed by a survey of the Task
Force's vision for the area through the year 2030. The Task Force also discussed
potential future concepts for ten different Sub Areas (see attachments).
During the joint City Council/Planning Commission workshop, the consultant team will
present the findings of the study to date. The Council and Planning Commission will be
asked to provide feedback regarding the direction the study is taking, particularly
regarding the future vision for the area.

1.HUMAN SERVICES IN EDEN PRAIRIE
Housing and Human Services Manager Molly Koivumaki, Human Services Coordinator
Mary Keating, Rehab Program Assistant Jan Schneider, and Human Services Technician
Khadra Duale provided a PowerPoint overview of the services their division provides.
Koivumaki explained how the office is funded and which programs it is funding this
year. Some of the programs the City helps to support include:
-The Shopping Bus with Southwest Metro Transit
-PROP local food shelf
-WHAHLT (West Hennepin Affordable Housing Land Trust) with Hennepin Tech
-Eden Prairie Apartment Managers Group
-HSSC (Hennepin South Services Collaborative) and FamiLink
Koivumaki also discussed the City's ongoing partnerships with the School District, the
Chamber of Commerce, and the faith community. Human Services also participates in a
number of community events, including the International Festival, the Gatherings, and
"How are the Children."
The City's Rehabilitation Program provides loans for eligible residents for home
improvements.
Mary Keating described some of her responsibilities, including housing and other
services for senior citizens.
City Council Workshop -February 15, 2005

Khadra Duale spoke about the services she helps coordinate for the community's Somali
immigrants, including assistance with:
INS procedures
Employment
Transportation
Education
-Housing Assistance
Councilmember Case asked how funding levels are determined for human services. Koivumaki
said the new 2-year budget process will allow for the department to request more specific
funding for particular programs than in the past. City Manager Scott Neal said he has been
impressed with amount of monitoring of the programs performed by staff throughout the year.
Councilmember Butcher said she likes the information provided by the Human Services group,
because you can see how many residents are actually being served by each program.
Mayor Tyra-Lukens said over the years she has had number of calls about distressed properties.
She asked if this is how the rehab loan program gets referrals. Koivumaki said they get this type
of referral a couple of times a year. They also get referrals from the building inspector, zoning
inspector, etc., and flyers promoting the program are mailed out in utility bills.
Councilmember Butcher asked Koivumaki how the relocation of the office to the mall space is
working out. Koivumaki said it is working wonderfully. The location lends a sense of
anonymity that clients did not have at City Center. Being located in the same building with
businesses is also advantageous, since some of these businesses provide internships for job
readiness.Koivumaki said being away from the central office can be challenging, and she makes
an effort to ensure she and her staff connect with the rest of the organization.

A.EDEN PRAIRIE INN POOL ADDITION (2005-4) by Eden Prairie Lodging,
L.L.C. Request for Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 1.29 acres;
Planned Unit Development District Review with waivers on 1.29 acres; Zoning
District Amendment within the Highway Commercial District on 1.29 acres; Site Plan
Review on 1.29 acres; and Preliminary Plat of 1.29 acres into 1 lot. Location: 11500
West 78th St. (Resolution No. 2005 -30 for PUD Concept Review ,Ordinance for
PUD District Review and Zoning District Amendment ,Resolution No. 2005-31
for Preliminary Plat)
City Manager Scott Neal reported that official notice of this public hearing was
published in the February 3, 2005,Eden Prairie Sun Current and sent to 16 property
owners. He said this project is for construction of a 1,400 square foot pool addition
for the hotel. The Planning Commission voted 7-0 to recommend approval of the
project to the City Council at its January 24, 2005 meeting. The existing two and
one-half story hotel is 24,500 sq. ft. and was granted a floor area ratio variance at the
time of its approval from 0.40 to 0.44. Neal said the proposed pool addition will
increase the floor area ratio to 0.46 requiring a waiver through the PUD. Since a pool
is a typical amenity of a hotel and that setbacks and parking will meet code, the
waiver may be reasonable. Six parking stalls affected by the addition will be
relocated along the west property line to meet code. A trash enclosure has been
incorporated into the plans as recommended in the staff report.

MOTION: Butcher moved, seconded by Case, to close the Public Hearing; and
adopt the Resolution for Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 1.29 acres;
and approve 1st Reading of the Ordinance for Planned Unit Development District
Review with waivers, and Zoning District Amendment within the Highway
Commercial Zoning District on 1.29 acres; and adopt the Resolution for Site Plan
Review on 1.29 acres; and adopt the Resolution for Preliminary Plat on 1,29 acres
into one lot; and direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating Staff
and Board recommendations and Council conditions.Motion carried 5-0.
DAIRY QUEEN GRILL AND CHILL County Road 4 & Terrey Pine (2005-1)
by Frauenshuh Companies. Request for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from
Industrial to Neighborhood Commercial on 1.09 acres; Planned Unit Development
Concept Review on 7.2 acres; Planned Unit Development District Review with
waivers on 1.09 acres; Zoning District Change from 1-2 to Neighborhood
Commercial on 1.09 acres; Site Plan Review on 1.09 acres; and Preliminary Plat of
7.2 acres into 2 lots. Location: County Road 4 and Terry Pine Drive. (Resolution
No. 2005 -32 for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change ,Resolution No. 2005-33 for
PUD Concept Review, Ordinance for PUD District Review and Zoning District
Change ,Resolution No. 2005 -34 for Preliminary Plat)
City Manager Scott Neal said official notice of this public hearing was published in
the February 3, 2005,Eden Prairie Sun Current and sent to 61 property owners. He
said this is for a 3,744 square foot drive-thru fast food restaurant. The Planning
Commission voted 7-0 to recommend approval of this project at its January 24, 2005
meeting. A guide plan change from Industrial to Neighborhood Commercial is
required.This may have merit based on the following reasons:
•The Neighborhood Commercial density land use would be compatible with the
surrounding uses.
•The Neighborhood Commercial land use will not significantly impact the balance
of land uses in the city.
Neal said waivers for parking setbacks and lot size are required and the parking
setback waivers are the result of right of way needed for road improvements. The
smaller lot size is consistent with smaller commercial lots in the area. The plans have
been revised according to the staff report and Planning Commission recommendations.
Prior to City Council second reading the developer will revise plans to meet the
requirement for 75% face brick, glass or natural stone on the exterior walls.
Case asked if this will occupy the entire lot that is currently the Eden Prairie storage
facility. Jeremiah explained the PUD originally incorporated this lot but it remained
industrial and has remained vacant other than a sign for the storage facility. Dietz
said it is a vacant piece of land.
There were no comments from the public.

REPORTS OF ADVISORY BOARDS & COMMISSIONS
APPOINTMENTS
ASSISTANT WEED INSPECTOR
City Manager Scott Neal reported that each year the City of Eden Prairie is requested
to appoint an Assistant Weed Inspector for the City under the requirements of
Minnesota Statutes ,Chapter 18 .80 and 18 .81.He said the responsibility of the
Assistant Weed Inspector is to enforce the local and state weed ordinances .Neal said
Jeff Cordes has been doing this inspection work for the past several years, and he is
familiar with the City ordinance and state law. Under State Statute, the Mayor is the
City Weed Inspector and appointment of an Assistance Weed Inspector thereby
relieves the Mayor or City Council of those duties as required by Minnesota State
Statute.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Aho, to appoint Jeff Cordes as Assistant Weed
Inspector for the City of Eden Prairie.Motion carried 5-0.
B.MCA TASK FORCE REVISION
Jeremiah said Jim Beaudette of Sears is unable to participate as a member of the
Major Center Area Task Force and has submitted his verbal resignation. She said
Staff is recommending David Hanson, owner of the office building at 8140 Flying
Cloud Drive, as his replacement. Developers have expressed interest in potential
redevelopment of an area that includes Mr. Hanson's property. She said this is the
large-scale study of the area around Eden Prairie Center Mall, through the future until
the year 2030.
MOTION: Young moved, seconded by Butcher, to accept the resignation of Jim
Beaudette (Sears) and appoint David Hanson (8140 Flying Cloud Drive office
building) to the Major Center Area Study Task Force.Motion carried 5-0.

who have volunteered to serve on the Cemetery Task Force:
•Robert Amell is a member of the Heritage Preservation Commission.
•Gerry Beckman is a resident of Eden Prairie and has served as the Director of
PROP as well as volunteering her services to many City programs over the last

responded to a letter from staff seeking volunteers to serve on this Task Force,
to which she has willingly volunteered.
•Paul Christensen is the Facilities Manager for Pax Christi Catholic Community.
Paul also responded to the letter that was sent to the neighbors and since the
cemetery property is adjacent to the Catholic Church, this would a welcome
opportunity to share perspectives as far as the cemetery relationship with this
facility.

Prairie.Wally has officiated several funerals and burials at the cemetery and is
very familiar with the layout and operation of the cemetery.

cemetery and has expressed interest in input as to the operation and aesthetics of
the cemetery.
Staff has been soliciting potential Cemetery Task Force participants since the
December 7, 2004 workshop meeting. During that time, staff has been talking to
individuals as well as sending out invitation letters to neighbors adjacent to the

volunteered to serve on this Task Force, and the liaison will be Stuart Fox, Manager
of Parks and Natural Resources. The original goal was to have eight members on the
Task Force that would include representatives from the following:
•2 members from local funeral homes
•2 members that are Eden Prairie citizens that own cemetery lots
•2 members that are Eden Prairie citizens that do not own cemetery lots
•1 representative from the Eden Prairie Cemetery Board of Trustees
•1 person from the Heritage Preservation Commission

XIII.REPORTS OF OFFICERS
REPORTS OF COUNCILMEMBERS
REPORT OF CITY MANAGER
1.Purchase of Outlot H ,Hawthorne Addition ,for New Fire Station
City Manager Scott Neal said Staff is recommending the City acquire a 3.659
acre parcel located at the northeast corner of Dell Road and Linwood Court
for a new fire station development for a purchase price of $1,960,034.66. As
stated in the attached Purchase Agreement, the City should take possession of
the property in late March 2005.
Neal said last November, the City Council authorized staff to proceed with the
acquisition of a property for a new fire station for a price of $1,900,000. Since
that time the sellers, Curt and Duane Delegard, increased the sale price by
$50,000, and also required the City pay an additional $10,034.66, or 1/3 of
their cost to terminate an existing ground lease they had on the property with
BP Amoco. He said the new price for the 3.659 acre parcel is $1,960,034.66,
or $12.30 per square foot, which is a reasonable price for a commercially
zoned property. Some of the $1,960,034.66 will be recovered through the sale
of approximately 1.3 acres to MnDOT for the development of a new frontage
road for the TH 312 highway project. There should also be a remnant parcel
(1 acre +/-) the City can sell for development after the fire station is planned
and approved. Staff expects the sale of these two properties to reduce the total
land cost for the fire station to about $550,000 $600,000.
Aho asked how sure we are that some of the land can be sold to a commercial
developer and how much is expected from MnDOT for the portion they would
purchase. Dietz said there is not an exact number at this point, but the owners
are committed to buying the land but no appraisal information has been
received. Dietz said he expects that MnDOT would pay close to the same
amount that the city paid for it. Neal said the potential for associated private
development at the site is very high because of progression of the 312 project.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Young, to authorize the Mayor and
City Manager to execute a purchase agreement and other documents necessary
to complete the purchase of Outlot H, Hawthorne Addition of Eden Prairie,
Hennepin County, Minnesota.Motion carried 5-0.
REPORT OF THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
February 15, 2005
Page 8
REPORT OF PARKS AND RECREATION DIRECTOR
Shuldhiess Family Property
Lambert reported that the 91-foot wide lot located at 9291 Riley Lake Road is
one of two residential sites within the proposed park boundaries for Riley
Lake Community Park. He said the Park and Open Space Plan has anticipated
acquiring the two residential lots when they come up for sale. He said this site.
is owned by a five-member estate and the family members are listing the
property at $339,500. Staff would recommend negotiating for the acquisition
of the property, subject to the approval of the National Park Service accepting
this property as replacement for property at Staring Lake Park. The Parks,
Recreation and Natural Resources Commission recommend the Council
approve making an offer on the property, if the site has been approved as a
replacement site for the LAWCON requirements at the Cummins Grill
homestead. He said he does not believe the city will have an opportunity to
acquire the parcel at such a low price again and he believes it would be a good
investment.
Aho asked if the city purchases this property would there be another similar
adjacent property. Lambert said yes, there would remain a 60-foot wide parcel
with a small home on it. He said he would recommend that when that property
comes up for sale the city acquire it as well. Aho asked what plans would be if
the city acquired both lots. Lambert said it would be to raze both structures on
the properties.
Case asked if DNR setbacks would limit potential use for the land in the
future. Lambert said yes, and there is no potential expansion for either of the
homes without combination of lots or extension of public utilities. He said it is
likely that the owners would petition to the city for water and sewer services
to the site.
Butcher said if there is no sense of urgency, she would like to look at the
Capital Improvements list to see where this project lies and prioritize that way
before entering into negotiations. Lambert said he thinks there is a sense of
urgency because the price has dropped and the owners are between realtors
and he convinced them to wait until tomorrow to see if the Council is
interested. He said if the owners change realtors, the price the City will have
to pay will go up.
Butcher asked if it would be possible to move up the CIP review to look at
this sooner than later. Neal said staff will take a look at the workshop schedule
to see if that's possible or if a special meeting could be held.
Young said he does not see a compelling reason to spend $300,000 on this
property.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING
February 15, 2005

Aho said because the property is situated inside the park it is not a very
desirable parcel and he does not see it selling fast. He suggested adding to the
deed a notice that the property is adjacent to a park and there are
encumbrances because of that.
Case said it is difficult for him to justify the price of the parcel. He said he
appreciates the idea of looking at the Capital Improvements Plan. He said
there is an opportunity to make life better for residents at that park by
purchasing the two lots, but it feels out of context for him.
Butcher asked if the Parks Commission has a reason that they recommended it
unanimously. Lambert implied that he might have more influence with the
Commission than with members of the Council.
Tyra-Lukens said she likes the idea of looking at the CIP but that's not the
whole solution because priorities will shift.
Lambert said staff has been given direction to find replacement property for
the Cummins Grill property in order to remove the LAWCON responsibility.
He said he needs direction as to what parcel staff should be pursuing for that
purpose .Tyra-Lukens said there has been discussion about property near
Birch Island Woods that might fit that criteria.
Young asked of the parcels on the list of properties discussed in January, how
many are available on a voluntary for sale basis and how many would have to
be condemned .Lambert said the only other parcel on that list for sale today,
and that the city is proposed to acquire ,is the Birch Island Woods parcel. He
said the majority of the parcels are owned by MnDOT or a developer and the
city will get them at no cost.
Aho asked if the properties acquired from MnDOT would qualify as
replacement or part of the mitigation as part of the LAWCON.Lambert said
no because the city will not get title to those, it will just be an easement for
trail purposes.
Case said he would feel badly if the city were not pursuing removing the
LAWCON grant from the Cummins Grill because it's the only tool for pulling
in the private investment or funding for the endeavor. He said there really
aren't other parcels available for sale in the same price range that meet the
National Parks Services requirements for safety. He said he thinks $300,000
would get the city enough of the acreage to lock it and be able to eventually
secure the whole parcel. He said there are alternatives available. Case
suggested pursuing removing the LAWCON grant by looking at other plans
and finding other parcels.
Young said he would be interested in finding out the current status of Birch
Island Woods. Neal said staff can make inquiries to find out that information.

2.Off Leash Dog Park
Lambert reported that the city has been looking at opportunities for providing
off leash dog parks in the city.Staff reported back to the Commission
regarding information that was discussed at the December 6, 2004 Parks,
Recreation and Natural Resources Commission meeting .At that meeting,
members of the Off Leash Area Study Committee and other individuals
presented information regarding the use of the various park areas for off leash
use areas (OLA). One of the areas that was identified was a portion of Staring
Lake Park below the Cummins Grill House.
On Thursday, December 23, 2004, Lambert, Libby Hargrove, Cheryl Luce,
and Stu Fox walked an area of Staring Lake Park that had been identified as a
potential OLA. The feedback that was received from Ms. Hargrove and Ms.
Luce was that this area had good potential to be utilized as an exercise area for
dogs. Based on that feedback staff has prepared cost estimates associated with
converting this area to an OLA.
Lambert said at the February 7 meeting, the Parks, Recreation and Natural
Resources Commission heard presentations in support of, and in opposition to
the proposed off leash area in Staring Lake Park. He said it is proposed to
fence the site and have large gates for multiple use with cross country skiers.
He said it is an area of the park with no immediate adjacent neighbors. He said
the area is fairly level with a deep ravine in the middle. The Commission
voted 3 in favor; 1 abstained to recommend the Council authorize installation
of the off leash area.
Lambert said Staff is recommending the Council authorize approval of the off
leash dog park and the expansion of the cross country ski trails on the south
side of Purgatory Creek and to negotiate an easement on the property on the
south in order to traverse the slope for cross country skiers. He said there is
also an opportunity to extend cross country ski trails north of the creek by
putting in a bridge at the base of the ravine, but Staff is not recommending
that at this time.
Aho asked if the estimated total cost of the project would be $25,800. Lambert
said that is correct, assuming there would be no cost for the easement. Aho
asked where the money would come from. Lambert said it would be from
Park Dedication fees.
MOTION: Butcher moved, seconded by Case, to authorize approval of the
off leash dog park and expansion of the cross-country ski trails south of
Purgatory creek, and further to negotiate an easement on the property to the
south in order to traverse the slope for cross-country skiers .Motion carried
5-0.

Removal of Forest Hills Park Warming House
Lambert reported that last Friday night, February 11, 2005, at about 11 p.m.,
someone set fire to the portable restrooms adjacent to the Forest Hills
Warming House and that fire spread to the warming house and caused major
damage to the facility. He said the damage includes the roof joists and the
ceiling and east end of the building are lost. He said all of the interior walls
and insulation are soaked and would need to be replaced. He said the
estimated cost to repair the building would be about $20,000 and replacement
would be about $25,000. Lambert said this was a pre-fabricated structure and
he now views it as an attractive nuisance on the site because it is dangerous to
leave it there.
MOTION: Aho moved, seconded by Butcher, to authorize staff to remove
Forest Hills Park warming house as soon as possible .Motion carried 5-0.

Synopsis
The City of Eden Prairie is required to submit an Annual Report to the Minnesota Pollution
Control Agency documenting how the City progressed on the Best Management Practices
(BMPs )outlined in our Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP).
Background Information
The NPDES Permit was promulgated in 1990 under the Clean Water Act (CWA) which is
administered by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The MPCA has assumed the role
as the administrative agency for these requirements. The SWPPP was developed in April 2003
to provide a plan of action and a series of Best Management Practices which the City would
undertake to assist in obtaining these goals. The SWPPP was presented to the Council on April
1, 2003.
The Annual Report provides the MPCA with a summary outlining specific BMPs relating to our
stormwater system and reports what was completed during the 2004/2005 permit year. The
Annual Report which summarizes the actions completed for each BMP is posted on the
Environment & Water Resources section on the City's web site.

Staff is proposing a street name change, in order to end the confusion regarding the addressing of
two businesses that front Fuller Road but are addressed from West 78th Street.
Background Information
The businesses are addressed from West 78th Street but with Hwy. 5 reconstruction, there isn't
access from the Highway.We are proposing to change the numbering from odd to even and also
to change the street name of the east/west portion of Fuller Road, which the businesses now
front, to West 79th Street. A new proposed building would also share this new identity. This
action would help alleviate confusion at Fuller Road businesses. The affected property owners
have been contacted and the consensus has been approval of the street name change.

Robert A. Lambert, Director Award Contract for Winter Recreation
Parks & Recreation Area Concept Feasibility Study and
Concept Plan
Requested Action
Move to:Award a contract for services to Ingraham & Associates to develop concept plans
and cost estimates for construction and projected operating costs for a winter
recreation area for Round Lake Park, and for Staring Lake Park, at a cost not to
exceed $13,500.
Synopsis
In January, the Eden Prairie Hockey Association requested the City Council consider studying
the feasibility of creating an outdoor winter recreation area that may include two outdoor
refrigerated hockey rinks, a large outdoor free skating rink, with music, a concession stand that
would serve these users and would include an outdoor plaza where people might enjoy hot
chocolate, snacks, etc. while watching skaters and listening to music. The concept would
hopefully be able to serve other winter recreation facilities and would become a focal point in the
community during the winter months. The concept should also include how these facilities would
be used during the remaining spring, summer and fall months.
Background
On January 18, 2005 the City Council authorized staff to obtain quotes for a planning service to
provide concept plans for developing a winter recreation area in a community park that would
include refrigerated outdoor ice and would serve other winter outdoor recreation activities.
Staff sent out requests for proposals shortly after that meeting and received two proposals. One
proposal was from Ingraham & Associates at a cost not to exceed $13,500. The Ingraham team
will include Ingraham & Associates, an award-winning, park planning and design firm with
landscape architects and park planners; Stevens Engineers, who specialize in the planning,
design and construction of new ice rink facilities, and JEA Architects, an Eden Prairie
architectural firm who provide a full range of architectural and space planning services to public
and private sector clients.
The City also received a proposal from SRF Consulting Group, in association with Delano
Erickson Architects and Stevens Engineers. SRF completed the City's Park and Open Space
System Plan update and recently designed the Purgatory Creek Recreation Area Complex.

Delano Erickson has designed most of Eden Prairie's park shelters and was the architect for the
second rink at the Community Center. Mr. Erickson has extensive experience in designing ice
rinks, and Stevens Engineering has thirty years of experience designing refrigerated ice rinks
including outdoor rinks.
The SRF proposal committed to a not to exceed fee of $23,489.
Both proposals come from highly qualified firms with extensive experience in park planning and
ice refrigeration system designs.
City staff recommends the City Council approve the proposal submitted by Ingraham &
Associates for a not to exceed fee of $13,500.

RE: Proposal for Winter Recreation Area Concept Plans at Round Lake Park and Staring Lake Park
Dear Bob,
The Office of Ingraham and Associates is pleased to submit this proposal for conceptual plans of outdoor
ice facilities at Round Lake Park and Staring Lake Park. Both parks offer unique features and opportunities
for a winter recreation area.
Our approach to this plan is one of vision; your vision of having an outdoor oasis like in Regina; the
Hockey Association's vision of the best ice possible, and the community's vision of always having access
to winter activities during our ever declining winter weather.We will work with and facilitate all
appropriate parties involved in order to implement everyone's vision.
The Staring lake park shelter/warming hut is in dire need of a facelift. It is nearly 25 years old and is a
wood structure. The site that it is resting on has the potential to be a very inspiring to its visitors and yield
awesome views of Eden Prairie. Currently there is a free skating oval near the shelter.We think that the
oval is a great start to the overall image of the winter recreation area. The Round Lake Park site is in a
great location next to the Eden Prairie Community Center, and the Eden Prairie High School. It already has
two outdoor hockey rinks, warming hut, free skating area and a loop trail around the lake.
Both of these sites have infinite possibilities; Ingraham and Associates along with Stevens Engineers and
Architect Jack Anderson will shape these possibilities into a coherent, seamless and fun design that is
respondent to the public's, City's, and Hockey player's needs.
Ingraham and Associates is an award-winning firm of three very hard working individuals.We have been
in business since 1996 and pride ourselves on our park planning and public needs services. For over 30
years Stevens Engineers has been providing personalized, consulting engineering services to both
municipal and private clients. Some similar projects include:
Shoreview Commons, Shoreview, MN
Thompson County Park, Dakota County, MN
Village Creek Park, Lakeville, MN
The National Gallery of Art, Sculpture Gardens, Washington D.C. (Stevens Engineers)
Lake Minnewashta Park Shelter, Carver County, MN
We thank you for this opportunity to be a part of this exciting project and we look forward to working with
you further. Please feel free to contact myself or any other member of our team if you have any questions
or comments. I can be reached at (612) 377-2500, by fax at (612) 377-1010, or email at greg@ingrabam-
associates.com.We are committed to the project schedule and our process will result in creative and
functional concept plans.
Sincerely,
s
Greg Ingraham,RIBA, AICP
PS We believe that with our proven experience and your vision we will create an exceptional and
innovative design.

Project Understanding
The City of Eden Prairie is looking for an experienced park plan-
ning consultant to develop concept plans ,cost estimates and pro-
jected operating costs for potential winter recreation sites at Round
Lake Park and Staring Lake Park.Conceptual plans are to be
created for each site .The winter recreation plans are to focus on
creating a dynamic multiuse community skating facility .The con-
cepts are also to include summer recreation use of the rinks and
facilities.
The winter recreation area is to include the construction of two
refrigerated outdoor hockey rinks ,a refrigerated outdoor free skat-
ing area ,and a building designed to house team rooms ,azamboni,
refrigeration equipment ,a concession area and outdoor plaza.
One concept for the winter recreation area in Round Lake Park
would incorporate the ice rinks into the existing facility layout and
existing site features.A second concept would move rinks and
building closer to Round Lake and utilize the lake as the free skat-
ing area.
One concept for Staring Lake Park would be to develop the winter
recreation area in the vicinity of the sledding hill and parking lot. If
this were to happen, the 25 year old shelter and outdoor plaza may
need to be renovated or rebuilt. A second concept would utilize
the ballfield space east of the amphitheater which would move the
center of activity more to the east.
A goal of concept planning is to explore creative and functional
alternatives that offer a wide variety of outdoor skating and recre-
ation opportunties. Another goal of this study is to determine con-
struction and operational costs for the alternatives. That will allow
City officials, staff and stakeholders to judge the cost-benefit of a
winter recreation facility.
Winter skating loops could be used as roller blading trails during
the warmer months .Outdoor music ,programed event space, cof-
fee shop style concessions ,an outdoor fire pit ,heated benches, a
skating or hockey sculpture are all potential elements of a con-
cept plan.
For the last ten years Minnesota has had an unreliable outdoor
skating climate with sporadic and difficult conditions for making
quality ice. Eden Prairie has an opportunity to expand winter rec-
reation opportunities through the use of refrigerated outdoor ice,
but needs to know the potential benefits and costs of a quality
facility.
The Ingraham and Associates team will use our experience, skills
and knowledge to prepare creative and functional plans and accu-
rate cost estimates that will enable the city to make an informed
decision about the facilities.
Proposed Approach
We propose to use a team approach to preparation of the concept
plans and cost estimates. Our approach uses the skills and expe-
rience of our design team and city staff, the planning commis-
sion, stakeholders and the public. The Ingraham and Associates
Team consist of park planners and landscape architects from
Ingraham & Associates supported by Stevens Engineers and ar-
chitect Jack Anderson.
We use site visits and analysis to determine the best possible
sites and designs.
We will meet with the City staff, Hockey Association's represen-
tatives, the Watershed District staff, the Park, Recreation and
Natural Resources Commission, the City Council, and the public
to determine goals and opportunities and to review concept plans
and costs. Ingraham and Associates work is almost 90% for mu-
nicipalities; we know how to provide objectivity and building con-
sensus where difficult issues may arise.
The product that we deliver is of the highest quality. Our staff is
extremely talented in multiple fields, each with his own specializa-
tion.You will receive high resolution digital and beautifully drawn
color plans and sketches illustrating the park and winter recreation
options and solutions. These plans and the supporting report will
help guide area infrastructure and park development. We will con-
duct the input process, facilitate the meetings and prepare the
concept plans and final concept plans by June 27th, 2005.
The four-step process is listed in greater detail on the following
page. Below is the Ingraham and Associates Keys to Success
Diagram of a Winter Recreation Area.

ioWinter Recreation Area
Process and Scope of Services
We propose a four step process to prepare the concept plans and cost estimates for the winter recreation area.
The process emphasizes stakeholder and City input and will result in a clear guide for decision making. Value
added services beyond the scope of the RFP are noted in Grey.
Step One: Research and Reconnaissance This step to be completed by mid April.
a.We will visit the sites, meet with City staff and other stakeholders to gain input for winter recreation
needs. In addition, we will propose a walking tour of the sites with the Commission, city staff and
stakeholders. We find an on-site meeting helps identify important issues and opportunities early on in
the process.
b.We will gather all pertinent information related to, access, drainage ,surrounding land uses, recre-
ation needs ,circulation ,existing facilities ,etc. and prepare a base map of the park and nearby area.
Also, we will prepare site analysis diagrams illustrating issues and opportunities .We will meet
with City staff to discuss the issues and opportunities of each project site.
c Research will be conducted to obtain performance and cost information about existing outdoor refrig-
erated ice rinks in Minnesota and across the northern United States.
d.We will assemble examples of successful winter recreation areas that focus on skating as a commu-
nity use. These will be used during the programming and concept plan phases.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA DATE:
SECTION: Reports of Directors March 1, 2005
DEPARTMENT/DIVISION:ITEM DESCRIPTION:ITEM NO.:
Robert A. Lambert, Director Picha Property Grant ConsiderationParks & Recreation
Requested Action
Move to:Authorize staff to apply for a Natural and Scenic Area Grant for acquisition of two
acres of the Picha property.
Synopsis
The City Council may wish to consider authorizing staff to apply for a Natural and Scenic Area
Grant for acquisition of half of the four acre Picha property, adjacent to Birch Island Woods.
The four acres is owned by descendants of the original Picha family, approximately half are
anxious to sell the property, while the other half would be willing to retain half of the property
and sell it at a future date. If the City is successful in obtaining a grant for half of the property,
the owners of the property are willing to split the property and sell half at this time, provided the
City gives assurances that the intent would be to acquire the other half at some future date.
Background
The deadline for applying for a Natural and Scenic Area Grant is March 31, 2005. In order to
accomplish the grant application, the City would have to hold a public hearing on March 15 and
get an updated appraisal of the property prior to the end of March.
Assuming the value of the property is now $850,000 (the asking price) for the entire 4.04 acres,
we can assume the value will be close to $425,000 for 2.02 acres. If we are successful in
obtaining a grant, which would be a 50% matching grant, the City's cost would be $212,500 -
minus any commitments the Friends of Birch Island Woods would make towards this City's
share. Jeff Strate has indicated the Friends of Birch Island Woods will commit to raising
$100,000 for assisting in the acquisition of the 2.02 acres.
Terry Picha, who is the representative for half of the family members and Dwight Picha,
representative for the other half of the family members have both agreed to split the property for
the purpose stated above. Dwight's family would be bought out with this acquisition. Terry's
family would want some assurances that the City would intend to acquire the remaining two
acres at some time in the future at market price.
If the City Council wishes staff to proceed with the grant application, staff will need
authorization no later than March 1, 2005
