A.REVIEW OF SECURITY AT FLYING CLOUD AIRPORT
Neal introduced Rick King, Chairman of the Flying Cloud Advisory Commission,
who will give a report evaluating the current security at the Flying Cloud Airport.
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
August 7, 2007
Page 2
Mr. King said Councilmember Nelson asked questions about security at the airport
in their February Workshop meeting with the Council. At that meeting the Council
directed the Commission to review and make recommendations regarding the
existing security at the airport. The Commission has completed their review and he
will give a brief verbal update tonight to go along with the written report provided.
King said they began working with former U.S. Attorney Tom Heffelfinger who
had brought up a question at a Town Hall meeting .King and City staff met with
him and went through his background information on security as a starting point.
He said they met with Metropolitan Airport Commission (MAC) representatives,
Fire and Police Department representatives ,the Transportation Security Agency
(TSA) and the Department of Homeland Security. They then called a special
meeting of the Commission on May 31 where they had representatives from TSA,
MAC, and the Fire and Police Chiefs in attendance. All of the representatives felt
that the airport was very secure and among the top of its type of airport, that is
general aviation ,non-cargo and non-passenger.
King said the Commission asked each of the representatives at the meeting to go
through their analysis of the airport and make recommendations for improvement,
and those recommendations are included in tonight's report .They determined there
are always things that can be improved ,for instance the Police Chief said there is
never enough lighting.They looked at the perimeter fences and lighting and all
kinds of security involved. Each of the representatives that came before the
Commission found the security to be adequate .In addition , they did a full tour of
the perimeter in a four-wheel vehicle and found the fences to be continuously
secure. King said all parties involved did a great job and the Commission is lucky
to have such dedicated people who came in and gave us their professional opinions.
King said the MAC's participation this year was outstanding. Tim Anderson,
Deputy Executive of MAC Operations, and Joe Garrison, Manager of the Anoka
and Flying Cloud Airports, are at tonight's meeting and they are the ones who were
involved in the Commission meetings and made the reports. MAC replaced or
added a total of 250 signs at the airport, something they were not asked to do. King
toured the signage improvements and he thought it is looking much better. They
also took the lighting comment by the Police Chief to heart and signed a contract
with Excel to put in 16 new high-intensity lights in high-traffic areas and to
upgrade all existing fixtures to high-intensity lights. The Commission is really
pleased with that and he wanted to recognize Mr. Anderson for MAC's work to
make the airport even safer.
King said the report contains 11 recommendations, some of which are already
completed. He noted one of the recommendations is that the Flying Cloud Advisory
Commission should reassess the security every year.
Nelson thanked the Commission and the MAC for this work. She thought it is
important to keep up with everything. She was very glad to see we are doing those
things that will keep the airport secure and the neighbors living around the airport
safe. Young agreed with Nelson and was appreciative of the MAC's cooperation.

IX.PUBLIC HEARINGS /MEETINGS
A.VACATION OF THE PUBLIC RIGHT -OF-WAY EASEMENT OVER PART
OF CANTERBURY LANE, VACATION 07-05 (Resolution 2007-85)
Neal said official notice of this public hearing was published in the July 19, 2007,
Eden Prairie Sun Current and sent to five property owners.The property owner has
requested the vacation of a part of the public right -of-way easement adjacent to her
property. The public right-of-way easement was originally dedicated to allow the
building of a cul-de-sac and the cul -de-sac will not be built. The property owner
has maintained the portion of the easement to be vacated as part of her yard. The
vacation will not result in conflicts with installed utilities.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Butcher moved , seconded by Duckstad,to close the Public Hearing
and to adopt Resolution 2007-85 vacating the public right-of-way easement over
part of Canterbury Lane. Motion carried 5-0.
X.PAYMENT OF CLAIMS
Nelson asked what Item 165824 for $59,629 was for and was it taken out of Parks Funds
or General Funds. She thought it was a very high lighting bill for a dog park and she
wanted more information on the item. Neal said Staff will research the item and will let all
of the Councilmembers know. Young asked if it was a claim that needs to be paid. Neal
said it is most likely a claim that has already been paid ,but if there is an issue with it we
can discuss it with Excel.
MOTION: Aho moved, seconded by Duckstad, to approve the Payment of Claims as
submitted.The motion was approved on a roll call vote, with Aho, Butcher ,Duckstad,
Nelson and Young voting "aye."

1.Budget Advisory Commission Process Update
Neal said the Budget Advisory Commission (BAC) has been meeting in
May, June and July in deliberation and hearing proposals from City staff.
Staff has finished their presentations to the BAC, and on Thursday night at
5:00 PM the BAC will make a presentation back to staff and others
attending the meeting about their recommendations on the Version 11 2008-
2009 budget. Those recommendations, staff comments and staff
recommendations will be provided to Councilmembers in advance of the
August 21St City Council meeting.
2.Green Roof at Community Center
Neal said when we began the design of the improvement projects at the
Community Center we hoped to add a green element to the project. There is
new construction on one part of the Community Center where we could add
a green roof. Staff received a proposal for the green roof when the project
was bid, but the cost of $140,000 was deemed too high. The contractor
recently came back and gave a revised bid for the green roof of $84,870.
Neal said there is a model of the product sitting in the hallway outside the
Council Chambers that shows the actual plant material used to form the
basis of the green roof. Because the green roof element of the project was
rejected initially, we did not expect this to come back in this format. Staff
has had some discussion and when we looked at it originally we planned to
take some of the funds needed to finance it from the Storm Water Fund.
This revised bid would need to be added as a contract amendment to the
contract. Since it is significant enough and also a change of scope, staff
brought it back to the Council for authorization.
Lotthammer said the material provided in the information packet indicates
some of the benefits of the green roof. The green roof will be visible from a
portion of the windows in the meeting rooms at the Community Center. It
would be a membrane-type of roof with interlocking trays for the plants on
top of it that would add protection to the roof. It would help with heating
and cooling costs as well as having a big impact on the amount of runoff
from the roof. There are environmental benefits that are difficult to put a
cost savings to, but it does improve the aesthetics and gives it more of a
natural feel.

Young asked about the justification for using the Storm Water Fund. Neal
said he recalled it had storm water benefits to it, it was something we saw as
a demonstration project, and we wanted to encourage more of this type of
demonstration project in the community. Dietz said that was true and he
thought the biggest issue we are now facing from the MPCA is we need to
have a zero runoff rate from the community. Both the quality and quantity
of water is limited by our permits. We need to get experience on our own on
this so we can learn what works and doesn't work. We may look at some of
the benefits on future retrofits of other City structures. Trying to minimize
or eliminate water runoff is what this is all about.
Young asked about the balance in the storm water fund. Dietz said it is
$1.2-1.3 million. Young asked if that was all tied to specific projects. Dietz
said we have a list of projects that goes out into the future, but this is a good
demonstration project and we need experience in this kind of project in
order to manage it with developers and builders in the future.
Butcher thought it was a good idea to start to incorporate this kind of green
in Eden Prairie. She asked how this would perform over our cold winters
and what kind of maintenance we will have in the spring because of our
extremes in temperature. Dietz replied this project is only 6-8,000 square
feet. The Conservation Commission has requested that we study these kinds
of things. Butcher thought we must have some data on the vegetation type
and how it performs. Dietz said that is discussed in the packet information;
however, no one on our staff has personal experience with this. It would be
a small project but highly visible. We will probably be asking others to do
this at some point, so we should be leaders instead of followers.
Duckstad asked whether adding this so late in the process would cause any
extra costs to any other part of the building already being built. Lotthammer
said the originally accepted part of the project was a built-up roof and the
roofing company is only a couple of weeks away from starting, so we need
to decide on this soon. There are no additional costs that would occur from
this other than what is being proposed tonight. We have a guarantee of one
year on all the plants, and they would need to start them as soon as possible
so they could grow before winter. The type of plants used is hardy in this
climate and will grow dormant in the winter. The plants will absorb heat, so
the cooling costs will be less and the green roof acts as an insulator in the
winter. There are no actual cost analyses available on lowering of heating
and cooling costs, but there would be a reduction in the roof top
temperatures so they should be lower.
Aho thought he understood some of the benefits but was concerned about
the initial cost differential between the two roof types. Lotthammer said the
additional cost for the green roof is $85,000, and they are motivated to use
this as a demonstration project. Aho then asked what the long-term
maintenance costs of this would be versus a built-up roof system.
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES

Lotthammer said they are saying it is similar to a built-up roof, but there is
not a long history since not many of these have been around for a long time.
Aho said typically we do not want water to stand on any roof, but in this
case it is the opposite because you want water to stay there for the plants.
Water weighs about eight pounds per gallon and that adds a significant
weight load along with the weight of the soil and plants. He asked how
much additional work would be required to support the increased load.
Lotthammer said the intent is that the baskets or trays are to be water proof.
This portion of the building was anticipated for the potential of a second
floor and there is quite a bit of load-bearing capacity already built in, so the
architect has no concerns about the load bearing issue. Aho asked if that
meant there is no need for re-engineering of the completed construction.
Lotthammer said that was true.
Nelson asked if there are any costs we will incur by going with a different
kind of roof. Lotthammer said this is the same contractor who is scheduled
to do the built-up roof, and the only difference is the $85,000 they have
calculated for building the green roof.
Nelson asked who is going to do the long-term maintenance of the plants
and will they inspect it or do we have to have someone knowledgeable to
inspect it. Lotthammer said this is a local company and we have some
advantage in their wanting this to be a demonstration project. After the first
year we would be responsible for doing low-level maintenance and upkeep.
The plants are in interlocking trays, so a tray could be removed and replaced
if the plants died.
Nelson asked if the green roof would preclude us from ever building a
second floor on the Community Center. Lotthammer said one of the
architects of the original building said that down the way it is a lot easier to
replace a membrane and green roof if you want to add on. Nelson then
asked if it would be possible to have a green roof on the second story if it is
built. Lotthammer thought you would build it that way if that was the intent,
and the interlocking trays could then be reused on the second story.
Nelson said she liked the idea of this green roof. If we are going to ask other
builders to do this ,we should try it out. It is another way to do energy
saving here in Eden Prairie.
Duckstad said he has some concern when he listens to the comments about
this type of roof being in its infancy and therefore not having a track record
to determine if it is an energy saving feature or if it will eventually result in
some problems or extra maintenance. Dietz said he would have some
serious concerns about spending that kind of money if we were planning to
replace an entire roof system with this, but this is a very limited project. The
Conservation Commission has heard speakers on this topic and these roofs
have been built in Europe for many years and also in the Chicago area. The
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
August 7, 2007
Page 8
brochure talks about the difference in temperature and water retention on
green roofs. This project offers us an opportunity to decide if we are going
to push builders and developers to do this and provides us with some
experience for a relatively small investment.
Young said he was not thrilled with this project and thought we were happy
with the built-up roof before. He believes $85,000 is a lot of money for the
change order and we are in the middle of our budget discussions. He
understood the funds would come from a designated fund, but at this time
we aren't looking for new ways to spend money so this isn't something that
he supports.
Duckstad said he agreed with Mayor Young to the extent that this type of
addition falls into the area of something we may want but not something we
need. He would vote against this because of budget issues.
Nelson believed we have to take a long-term look at budgeting. If it saves
money over the long term by reducing energy costs, we are saving money.
Young said he would be more comfortable if there were other cities in
Minnesota that had built these so we could quantify savings instead of
projecting them. He would be happy to follow someone else's lead and
learn from their experience.
Aho asked about the total square footage of this section of the roof. Dietz
said it is about 6350 square feet. Aho said he thought the payback or return
on investment for the $85,000 cost would come through the reduced energy
costs of about $6,000 per year, but there would also be increased
maintenance costs. He thought it would be a very long time before you
could recover the total amount invested. Because of the extended period of
time to receive a return on the investment and the increased maintenance
costs for the project, he did not think he would support it.
Butcher thought we made a commitment to go down the path of being a
green city, and we already have been making changes to our energy
consumption. She saw this as one more step in that commitment. Because it
is a really small area, she thought it would be worth the risk involved to
continue with our commitment to be a green city.
Neal said he didn't have anything to add except that we regret the timing of
this. This project is one of the decisions that have some policy implications
and a price tag, so that is why this was brought to the Council. If there is no
action or a negative action tonight, it won't happen. If there is a positive
action, staff would prepare the change order.
Young said it is worthy of study and we have made some commitments as
Ms Butcher pointed out but he thought it comes down to a matter of dollars.

C.REPORT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
1.Dunn Bros./Smith-Douglas-More Property
Jeremiah said Staff is looking for direction with regard to exploring
potential options for the Smith-Douglas-More house. We are currently at a
stage where the five-year lease with Dunn Bros. is due to expire this year.
The Dunn Bros.' franchisee, Puregrace LLC, is interested in revisiting the
lease and has expressed some interest in buying the property. Staff has not
looked at the details of that and is not asking for a decision. If the options
are to be explored, the next step would be an appraisal of the property and
further discussions regarding the kind of offer and financing. Staff is
looking for Council direction regarding whether we should continue
discussions on sale versus lease or should we just bring back the lease
option.
Jeremiah said there is zoning in place that would retain the historic
designation of the property regardless of ownership. The report mentions no
consideration of removing the historical designation. The purchaser is
aware of the zoning restrictions and the historic nature of the property as
well as the need to go through the process of site plan review for any
modifications to the property. The historic nature is part of the reason for
Puregrace's interest because they like the unique aspects of the property.
Young said Mr. Lindahl brought this to his attention a couple of times and
he was aware there are some sensitive issues that were not put in the report.
He thought the City Council should be presented with both alternatives, and
his expectation is that the historic designation would remain intact if it is
sold.
Butcher said we have considered this property and the business on it to be a
win-win situation for the City over the past five years. One of the reasons
for that is because it is such a community center and serves the entire
community in that capacity. Before we made the decision to rehabilitate the
property and have it become a Dunn Bros., there were a lot of parents and
youth who came to us to see if there was something we could do as a City to
create a gathering place for our teenage youth. Once the Dunn Bros.
property on one of our historic sites came to fruition, it became clear this
served a wonderful function in our community as a gathering place for our
youth. She would like to do whatever we can to keep Dunn Bros. at this
location and to maintain public access to the building. She didn't think it
was a bad thing to look at the multiple perspectives on the situation, but she
thought it would not be preferable for the City to sell the property if there
would be the possibility of no public access in the future. Even though the
lease may be lower in terms of annual value, it is a revenue stream that is
helpful to the City in paying for the costs of the building rehabilitation.
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
August 7, 2007
Page 10
Aho thought it is a wonderful facility, and whether we sell or lease it there
is no guarantee that it will remain a Dunn Bros. coffee house. That is up to
the market and the companies involved. In terms of the lease space it is
stated that it has an initial annual rent of $60,558, or $18 per square foot. He
asked if that is a net-net-net lease.Lindahl said it is a triple-net lease where
they pay all the expenses. Aho said he was not opposed to either a lease or
sale, but it would be good to get an appraisal of property and see if it is
feasible.
Duckstad said in light of the zoning regulations for heritage preservation he
had no objection to the City getting an appraisal and exploring the
possibility of selling the property. He thought we would be negligent if we
did not look at that aspect since we are here to conserve. He would be in
favor of the getting the appraisal and directing staff to look at the possibility
of selling the property.
Nelson said she could look at either option; however, she would prefer to
keep it as a lease property because it provides a long-term revenue stream.
If we sold the property, she would want to see proceeds go into the long-
term revenue stream as well. She very much likes having this facility open
to the public every day where people can come and go as they wish, and if
we can possibly keep it in that kind of situation the City is better off for
doing so.
Duckstad said in connection with the possibility of selling the property, he
would not be averse to continuing the decision to sell at a future date when
we could get a maximum price if the real estate market is soft at the present
time.
Young thought we did not know enough to make a decision tonight, and he
thought staff had the information they need in order to proceed.

Neal read the list of liaisons assigned to Councilmembers for their visits to the National
Night Out gatherings. He noted there will be a moment of silence at 6:05 PM tonight in
memory of the victims of the 35-W bridge collapse.

Nelson said she understood some of our Police force was called in to help with the bridge
incident and we should thank them for their participation in that. She asked what part we
played. Neal said we had a small group of about 12 officers that went down on Thursday,
Friday and Saturday to do perimeter security. They had training scheduled for that time
and officers scheduled to come in, so they helped with the bridge security instead of
having the training.
Aho noted he went down to work at the American Red Cross building on Thursday to help
with the emergency. There were a lot of volunteers and food donations and it was good to
see the outpouring of help.

Leslie Stovring Declaration of Covenants and Restrictions forPublic Works / Environmental Pointe on Lake Riley Outlot
Requested Action
Move to:Move to approve filing a Declaration of Restrictions and Covenants for a City-
owned Outlot within the Pointe on Lake Riley development.
Synopsis
The Riley-Purgatory -Bluff Creek Watershed District is requiring the City to file a Declaration of
Restrictions and Covenants over the wetland mitigation area.G&L Land Investment, LLC
(G&L) has signed an Agreement with the City of Eden Prairie to maintain and monitor the
Wetland Mitigation Areas within the City-owned Outlot to ensure that creation and maintenance
of the wetland mitigation area falls to the developer rather than the City until the mitigation area
is determined to be complete by the Watershed District.
Background Information
The Pointe on Lake Riley development included wetland impacts that were mitigated on-site.
This replacement wetland area was placed within an Outlot and ownership was transferred to the
City of Eden Prairie.
An Agreement dated February 23, 2007 was signed by the developer, G&L, which requires G&L
to maintain and pay for any reconstruction, repairs or replacement deemed necessary by the
Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District to comply with the specifications within the
approved Wetland Replacement Plan. The Letter of Credit placed on the property is to cover the
wetland mitigation requirements as well as the wetland and wetland buffer requirements for the
development. The Agreement will be in effect until the Watershed District determines that the
Wetland Mitigation is performing as required by the Wetland Conservation Act.
The second year of monitoring has been completed for the site. The wetland mitigation was less
than the amount required and corrective actions were ordered. Installation of a small check dam
to better control water flow within the wetland was also completed as required. A plan to
address the need for additional wetland replacement and control of invasive species within the
wetland, wetland buffer and wetland mitigation areas was provided.

Leslie Stovring Phase II Nondegradation ReportPublic Works / Environmental
Requested Action
Move to:Approve submittal of the Final Draft of the Phase II Nondegradation Report to the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency for review and approval.
Synopsis
The City of Eden Prairie submitted an application for coverage under the Phase II National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit to the Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency (MPCA) on May 30, 2006. One requirement of the new permit was preparation of a
Nondegradation Report by September 1, 2007. The Draft Report was submitted for public notice
on June 26, 2007 and a public meeting was held. Comments were received from the
Metropolitan Council and revisions were made as recommended for the Final Draft.
Background Information
Phase I of the Nondegradation Assessment included collection and analysis of the data needed to
assess the city for stormwater loading. Phase I was completed in September 2006.
Phase II included assessment and modeling of the pollutant loadings into our lakes, creeks,
wetlands and ponds due to increased urbanization since 1988 and during future development.
This would include phosphorus, total suspended solids (sediment) and stormwater flow volume
(for example evaluation of creek bank erosion). A Nondegradation Report was prepared to
evaluate and recommend practices to reduce or mitigate pollutant loading to our waterways.
A 30-day public comment period extended from June 26th through July 25, 2007. Individual
copies were mailed to the Watershed Districts, Metropolitan Council, Board or Water & Soil
Resources and Pollution Control Agency.Metropolitan Council was the only one to submit
comments, and they were editorial in nature. A copy of the Final Draft must be submitted to the
Pollution Control Agency by September 1, 2007 to remain in compliance with our permit.
Recommendations were developed to primarily address volume loading to the City's creeks and
lakes. Pollutants such as phosphorus and suspended solids were shown to be addressed by
current Best Management Practices (BMPs) such as street sweeping and stormwater treatment
requirements and suggestions for improvements to current practices were included. BMPs
recommended include:
•Scheduling street sweeping as early as possible in the spring to remove materials prior to
spring rains.
•Evaluation of need for increased street sweeping in sensitive locations, such as for lakes
or creeks that are impaired due to nutrient loading.
•Incorporation of abstraction requirements into current stormwater treatment
requirements.Abstraction is the removal or treatment of stormwater runoff, including
infiltration (such as rain gardens or green roofs), increased evapotranspiration (such as
increased tree plantings), incorporation of pervious pavement or capture and reuse of
stormwater for activities such as lawn irrigation. Abstraction of the first one inch of
rainfall could reduce new runoff volume by as much as 85 percent. In addition,
approximately 80% of the annual volume is generated by 3/4 inch rain events or less. The
current policy is to infiltrate the first 3/4 inches of stormwater on site. The Nine Mile
Creek Watershed District is considering a requirement for abstraction of the first inch.
•Development of standards for mitigation of volume generated between 1987 and 2007 for
redevelopment or reconstruction of developed areas.
•Incorporation of soil management plans for development and redevelopment into current
stormwater treatment requirements. This would require the developer to minimize soil
compaction from development and restore site permeability through actions such as post-
construction soil ripping or soil amendment.
•Evaluate ways to educate developers on and provide incentives to developers on
creatively applying Low Impact Development (LID) design principals.
•Restoration and stabilization of downstream water resources that are being impacted by
stormwater runoff volumes. This work would be conducted in partnership with the
Watershed Districts as much as possible.
•Incorporation of structural Best Management Practices (BMPs) into City projects such as
street reconstruction as opportunities arise. This could include installation of sumps, rain
gardens, underground infiltration or other measures.

Executive Summary
This study is completed in response to the Nondegradation Assessment requirement of the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency as part of the City's National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II permit. The purpose of this study is to assess changes in
stormwater runoff volume, total suspended solids (TSS) and total phosphorus (TP) loading in the
City of Eden Prairie since 1988, and to predict how land change expected to occur between now
and 2020 would impact those parameters. This analysis is to be used to identify Best
Management Practices to be undertaken to return to 1988 or better conditions.
A key component of this analysis is an assessment of the change in impervious surface due to
land use change. The percent impervious area varies considerably thorugout the City, with some
subwatersheds less than 10 percent impervious and other approaching 50 percent.
Year 1990 2000 2020
Percent of upland area in Eden Prairie that is impervious 21%29%32%
This analysis estimated the pollutant loads and stormwater volumes for three key years - 1990 (a
proxy for 1988), 2000, and 2020. Much of the land use change in Eden Prairie since 1988
occurred under regulation to protect water quality. Additionally, the City currently undertakes
Best Management Practices (BMPs) to improve water quality. The pollutant load and volume
reductions associated with those BMPs were estimated to determine the net impact to stormwater
volume and TSS/TP load since 1988 and predicted to occur between now and 2020.

For the period 1990-2020, this study estimates the City will remove about 1 million more pounds
of TSS than created since 1988, and 2,400 pounds more TP than created. For these two
parameters, the City meets the MPCA requirement of no net increase in TSS and TP over 1988
conditions.However, land use change will generate 4,485 acre-feet of new runoff volume.
To address this increase in stormwater volume, the City has identified several new BMPs that
will over time either reduce stormwater volume or minimize the adverse effects of additional

stormwater volume.Managing stormwater volume has the additional benefit of reducing TSS
and TP loading by reducing the amount of runoff picking up and transporting pollutants to
downstream waters. These BMPs include:
•A new requirement on development and redevelopment to abstract (remove from runoff by
infiltration, evapotranspiration, capture and reuse, etc .)a portion of annual runoff volume;
•Reducing additional stormwater runoff volume through evapotranspiration by developing
and implementing a reforestation program;
•Retrofitting volume management BMPs where opportunities arise, such as on City street
reconstruction projects; and
•Mitigating volume impacts by stream restoration ,erosion control projects ,shoreline
restoration.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
This study is completed in response to the Nondegradation Assessment requirement of the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency as part of the City's National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) Phase II permit. The purpose of this study is to assess changes in
stormwater runoff volume, total suspended solids (TSS) and total phosphorus (TP) loading in the
City of Eden Prairie since 1988, and to predict how land change expected to occur between now
and 2020 would impact those parameters. This analysis is to be used to identify Best
Management Practices (BMPs) to be undertaken to return to 1988 or better conditions.
A nondegradation assessment consists of three key steps:
1.An assessment of change in land use and imperviousness in the city from 1988 to present
and out to 2020 conditions.
2.An associated pollutant load change with the land use change for total phosphorus, total
suspended solids, and water volume.
3.Identification of current of necessary BMPs to return to 1988 conditions or better.
This study is organized as follows:
1.A description of the City, land use change since 1988, and change expected to occur
between now and 2020.
2.A description of the method used to calculate imperviousness and the results.
3.A description of the various input parameters used to model pollutant loading and
stormwater runoff volumes.
4.A review of the existing BMPs designed to reduce pollutant loading, including a history
of watershed and city rules and ordinances regulating development and redevelopment;
the maintenance of sump manholes that collect material washed into the storm sewer
system from the landscape; and the street sweeping program.
5.A detailed presentation of the results of water quality and quantity modeling reported by
subwatershed in the city. These results estimate the amount of new TSS and TP loading
and stormwater runoff volumes resulting from land use change in the City.
6.An analysis of the amount of pollutant loading removed by the BMPs described above.
7.The net impact of those BMPs in reducing the increased TSS and TP load and new
stormwater volume.
8.Identification of new BMPs the City could undertake to return to 1988 conditions or
better, or mitigate the impacts of increases.
9.Proposed modifications to the City's Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan to plan to
implement those BMPs.

2.0 LAND USE AND P8 MODELING
2.1 P8 Model Construction and Organization
Modeling for much of the City has already been completed through the preparation of Use
Attainability Assessments (UAAs) for many of the lake watersheds in Eden Prairie by either the
Nine Mile Creek Watershed District or the Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District
(Table 2.1). Staring Lake is due for completion in 2007 and covers a significant portion of the
Purgatory Creek watershed in Eden Prairie. The UAAs include both watershed load modeling
and in-lake response modeling. The UAAs are used to identify potential improvement projects
and estimate the costs to restore the waterbody to meet selected water quality goals.

The UAAs include a P8 model developed for each of the lake watersheds .P8 - Program for
Predicting Polluting Particle Passage thru Pits ,Puddles,&Ponds - is a public domain
(http ://wwwalker.net/p8/), industry standard model developed to assess pollutant loading in
urban watersheds .P8 was developed using National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) data and
provides loading estimates based on data collected as a part of the NURP program. P8 was
designed to assess the effectiveness of BMP implementation in reducing runoff loads from
impervious surfaces and provides a tool for evaluating other nonstructural practices such as street
sweeping .These models represent the best tools available for predicting watershed loads under
current conditions.
The models provided by the watershed districts were the basis for the City's assessment. For the
assessment, the P8 model subwatersheds were maintained as well as the device configurations.
However, imperviousness and the pervious curve numbers were updated based on evaluations of
land use, LANDSAT data, and aerial photo interpretation. Selection of these input variables is
described later in this report. It is important to note the modeling is not focused on absolute
values, rather the purpose is to assess relative change among the time periods. The modeling
does need to be close to real world values to assess the impact of current activities on loading.
The modeling was developed for this purpose and is not intended to be a calibrated loading
model.

Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
The analysis was conducted according to the receiving water including twelve lakes (Figure 2.1).
Although the analysis focused on changes in loading to the lakes, the subwatershed detail was
maintained in the model for future evaluation of projects on water quality.
2.2 Land Use Assessment
Land use data was collected from the Metropolitan Council and the City of Eden Prairie.
However, each of the key time periods and data sets had different land use categories. These
data were combined into a representative group of categories (Table 2.2 Figures 2.2, 2.3 and
2.4). 1990 data was selected as a surrogate for 1988 because land use data was readily available
for 1990 and not 1988. Little change occurred in the City between 1988 and 1990. In the 1990
land use coverage, agriculture and vacant lands were not uniquely identified. Since the
conversion of agricultural land to developed land has significant implications, we assumed the
agricultural land in 2000 was also agriculture in 1990 and converted the land use accordingly.
The Metropolitan Council's coverage also included a mixed-use category that was dissected
using Eden Prairie's data into the appropriate category such as commercial or single family
residential.The resultant coverages are the best estimate of land use for the three critical time
periods including 1990, 2000 (present) and 2020.

Eden Prairie Classifications.
3 For the 2000 land use, the vacant classification was updated based on the City of Eden Prairie's current Land Use to
either SFR, MFR, COM, IND, P&R, PSP, AG
4 Compared the Met Council's 2000 and 2020 land use with the City of Eden Prairie's current and future land use.
Changed the Met Council's classification to the Eden Prairie's land use based on aerial photography verification.

2.3 Imperviousness Assessment
To estimate the imperviousness in the City, assumed percent imperviousness by land use from
the watershed district supplied models and LANDSAT imagery were assessed (Table 2.4; Figure
2.5).The LANDSAT impervious fraction is an area-weighted average of imperviousness for all
pixels or partial pixels falling in each land use classification. The values were in relative
agreement except for commercial and industrial areas. Aerial photos were analyzed to determine
the imperviousness of these two land uses. The selected values for the modeling were chosen
based on aerial photo interpretation or based on an evaluation of LANDSAT estimated
imperviousness as well as knowledge of the area and to provide a conservative approach.

The aerial photo assessment of impervious areas covered a total of 376 commercial acres as well
as 628 industrial acres (Table 2.5).Impervious and pervious areas were digitized to estimate the
area of impervious surfaces in these land use categories .Although they represent a very small
area, parking lot islands were considered impervious because of soil compaction in these areas.
Commercial areas were determined to be approximately 67% impervious while industrial areas
were determined to be 46%impervious.

Upland areas (areas excluding lake and wetland surface areas) in the City went from 21 %
impervious in 1990 to a projected imperviousness of 32% in 2020 (Table 2.6). The Lake
Smetana and NW Anderson Lake watersheds demonstrated the greatest impervious fractions
with 50% and 44% impervious areas respectively. Additionally, the northeast corner of the City
which flows to Nine Mile Creek was projected to be more than 50% impervious.

2.4 Pervious Curve Numbers
The second key piece of information for the P8 model is a curve number for the pervious areas in
the model. The SCS curve number reflects an area-weighted-average of the pervious areas
considering soil types, land use and hydrologic groups. It was assumed that all pervious areas, or
grassed areas, were in fair hydrologic condition. Table 2.7 lists the values used in the P8
modeling as a function of land use, hydrologic condition, and soil group.

2.5 Other P8 Inputs
Other model input is the particle, precipitation and temperature file. The particle file used was
the P8 default NURP50 particle file. Both the precipitation and temperature files used were
obtained from UAA models. All models were run for the same 10 year period (1990 to 2000)
with 5 passes through the precipitation file.
2.6 Model Validation and Assumptions
Modeling was conducted for all loading in the City, including loading from other NPDES Phase
II permit holders. Other permit holders include Mn/DOT, Hennepin County and Flying Cloud
Airport. These loadings were included in this assessment.
The modeling approach presented here is a conservative approach to assess nondegradation. The
P8 model was developed for urban watersheds. However, one of the critical aspects of this
modeling is the change in loading that occurs as land is converted from open or agriculture to
developed land. To test the P8 model's handling of open space, a test watershed (100 acres) was
run for an average precipitation year (Table 2.8). Curve numbers in the model for open space
and agriculture typically ranged from 60 to 70. Because of the low runoff (<1.4 inches), the
loading rates for open land with these curve numbers is very low. This may be artificially

lowering the runoff from these areas, especially if the current land use is agriculture. However,
to maintain a conservative approach, these numbers were maintained in the model.

To validate the model, model results were compared to stream data collected as a part of the
Watershed Outlet Monitoring Program (WOMP; Table 2.9). For the WOMP data, a close to
average year precipitation was selected to evaluate. Data are presented as flow weighted means
or on a unit area basis. This makes the data comparable even though the model was only run for
the City of Eden Prairie portion of the watersheds. The model typically over-predicted runoff
and loading for the Purgatory Creek watershed. Although the model does not account for
receiving water processes, it represents a conservative estimate of loading from the land.

3.0 CURRENT WATER QUALITY
TREATMENT CAPACITY
Understanding the BMPs and water quality treatment devices in the watershed is vital in
assessing load changes in the City between 1988 and present .Additionally ,assessing whether
the current practices are sufficient for protecting water quality into the future can help guide City
activities to assure compliance with nondegradation.
3.1 Applicable Rules, Codes and Ordinances
Applicable watershed district rules and City codes and ordinances that address water quality
were reviewed to determine the current treatment capacity in the City resulting from regulation.
3.1.1 Eden Prairie Codes and Ordinances
Wetlands (2000, modified 2003). Provides for management of wetlands and wetland impacts by
management classification as determined by a functions and values assessment. Ordinance
specifies allowable hydrologic change in wetlands, and buffer and setback standards by
classification.Land-altering activities affecting wetlands must also provide a Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan incorporating Best Management Practices.
Shoreland Management (2004). Establishes structure, septic system, and drain field setbacks,
and minimum lot sizes; regulates grading and filling activities and alteration of natural
vegetation in the shoreland management area; and regulates onsite sewerage systems in the
shoreland area.
Land Alteration, Stormwater Management, and Tree Replacement (2006).Generally governs
land alterations impacting 100 cy or more of earth. Requires erosion control, slope stabilization,
tree preservation and replacement, and post-construction maintenance of stormwater
management facilities.
3.1.2 Riley-Purgatory Creek -Bluff Creek Watershed District
The District's regulatory program was formally established in 1996. Projects to alter or disturb
land surfaces in excess of one acre, fill within the 100-year floodplain, or fill within a wetland
are required to meet NURP design requirements and include skimming of floatable materials.
No specific rate or volume control is required. According to Bob Obermeyer, engineer for the
District, standards have been in place since 1977 for projects altering more than one acre. The
early emphasis was simply on erosion control, but in the early 80s started looking for
sedimentation control and treatment. The design criteria used was to provide sufficient surface
settling area to remove a 0.1 mm particle based on a 10-year, 1.65" in 30 minutes storm event
(Obermeyer, pers. corresp. 6/8/06, 7/12/06).
City of Eden Prairie 15 Final Agency Review Draft
Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
3.1.3 Nine Mile Creek Watershed District
The District's regulatory program was formally established in 1996. Projects to alter or disturb
in excess of 100 cubic yards of material, fill within the 100-year floodplain, or fill within a
wetland are required to submit an erosion and stormwater management plan. On-site detention
for rate control is required to maintain predevelopment rates of runoff for the 100-year storm
event.No volume control is required.Water quality ponds must meet NURP design
requirements and include skimming of floatable materials.According to Bob Obermeyer,
engineer for the District, standards have been in place since 1977 for projects altering more than
100 cubic yards of material. The early emphasis was simply on erosion control, but in the early
80s started looking for sedimentation control and treatment. The design criteria used was to
provide sufficient surface settling area to remove a 0.1mm particle based on a 10-year, 1.65" in
30 minutes storm event (Obermeyer, pers. corresp. 6/8/06, 7/12/06).
3.1.4 Lower Minnesota Watershed District
The District's regulatory program was formally established in 1999. A Runoff Management
Plan (RMP) is required for residential projects in excess of 5 acres or nonresidential projects in
excess of one acre, or projects meeting other criteria. Runoff from the site after development
must not exceed the peak runoff from the site predevelopment for the 20-percent chance (5-year)
and 1-percent chance (100-year) storm event.The two LMWD lakes in Eden Prairie, Grass
Lake and Rice Lake, are Level IV lakes, requiring runoff treatment prior to discharge to NURP
standards except that dead storage must be provided for a 2-inch event rather than a 2.5-inch
event.
3.2 Treatment Device Quantification
The City of Eden Prairie's pond and wetland database was reviewed to assess the ability to
quantify the treatment capacity in the City. The most important data includes pond dead storage
or bottom and surface areas. Flood pool storage is also useful but not critical. Currently, these
data are not available in the City's database. For the Nine Mile Creek Watershed, the data are
available in the P8 model supplied by the District. The data are also provided in the other UAA
models, however it is unclear if all of the ponds are included, most significantly the development
or lot level ponds. Consequently, the treatment capacity was estimated based on the year the lot
was developed and the District or City rules in place at the time.
3.3 Year Built For Developments
The first step in identifying the rules under which development occurred, is to determine the date
when a lot was developed. Hennepin County maintains a GIS layer that includes the
development year for a particular tax lot (Figure 3.1).The City was then broken into areas
based on the period in which different watershed rules were in place. Realizing that some
development can still occur without review (less than 5 acres), each subwatershed was evaluated

3.4 Application of Rules
Watershed rules were in place in the early 1980s, however the key rules are those in place after
1988. From 1988 to 1992, developments were required to design stormwater ponds to provide
dead storage based on the 10-year 30-minute event (1.65 inches; Tables 3.2 and 3.3). In 1993,
the rules changed and required the pond to have the dead storage of a 2.5 inch 24 hour event.
This design is considered a National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) standard and is assumed to
provide a 50 to 60% total phosphorus reduction and a 70 to 80% total suspended solids
reduction.

3.5 Sump Manholes
The City of Eden Prairie maintains over 600 sump manholes in the City.These manholes are
cleaned with a vacuum truck on a periodic basis, with cleaning generally occurring annually.
The City maintains records of raw material removed from the manholes (Table 3.4).Between
0.8 and 1.6 million pounds of raw material is removed annually from the manholes with an
average removal of 1.3 million pounds.

4.0 MODEL RESULTS
4.1 Organization
Model results were organized on a receiving water basis with the City's twelve lakes as the focus
(Figure 2.1).Model results are presented in for these subwatersheds. Those subwatersheds that
drain out of the City or drain to creeks that ultimately drain out of the City without entering a
lake were grouped together. The details of the P8 models supplied by the watershed districts
were maintained and are provided in the Technical Appendices.
4.2 Load Changes
Changes to impervious area, volume, TSS, and TP for the City of Eden Prairie between 1990 and
2020 are presented in Table 4.1. Between 1990 and 2020 the City is expected to add a little less
than 2,000 impervious acres resulting in an increased discharge of almost 4,500 acre-feet of
water. The increased discharge was predicted to include an additional 1.2 million pounds of TSS
and 4,300 pounds of total phosphorus.

4.3 Current BMP Treatment
The three primary BMPs in the City are: load reductions through the application of development
rules; street sweeping and sump manhole maintenance. These BMPs were evaluated to estimate
the pollutant removal and volume reduction each were currently providing and could be expected
to provide in the future. The reductions were summed to estimate the total amount of pollutant
removal or volume reduction, and applied to the load increase resulting from land use change to
determine the net change in pollutant load and stormwater volume between 1990 and 2020.
4.3.1 Development Rules
To evaluate the impact of application of development rules, each parcel in the city was assigned
a treatment level depending on when it was built and the treatment rules that were in place at that
time. For each subwatershed, raw and treated TSS and TP loads were calculated for each
subwatershed based on land use in 1990, 2000, and 2020.
The reduction attributed to development rules was calculated as follows. Say a parcel that was
vacant in 1990 generated a 30 pound per year TSS load. After development, it generated a raw
load of 100 pounds per year TSS. Treatment rules were applied to the raw post-development
load: 100 pounds * 80 percent removal = 80 pounds removed per year. This parcel generated a
raw load increase of 70 pounds per year, but treatment resulted in 80 pounds per year TSS
removal.Thus development can result in a net decrease in TSS and TP load.
Treatment rules have been in place since 1988, so development after 1988 could be assumed to
be treated to NURP standards (80 percent removal TSS, 60 percent removal TP). However, as
discussed in Section 3.3 above, some development may not have required treatment under the
rules.The estimated removal due to development rules was calculated as the raw load increase
times the 80 percent NURP removal rate, times the estimated fraction of development built under
the rules shown in Table 3.1

4.3.2 Sump Manholes
The City of Eden Prairie maintains over 600 sump manholes. Much of the volume of material
that accumulates in the sump is trash and organic material such as leaves, and sand and sediment
particles that are too heavy to become suspended in stormwater as TSS. To estimate the fraction
of material removed from sumps that would likely have become a part of the TSS load, three
samples of material were collected from sump manholes and analyzed for particle size.
Approximately 8.3 percent of the material grains fell into the P8 TSS particle size class
distribution (see Table 4.3). It was assumed then that 8.3 percent of the average annual volume
of material removed from sump manholes was material that likely would have contributed to the
downstream TSS load. To calculate the estimated annual TP removal from sump manholes, the
P8 fraction of TP associated with TSS (3,850 mg/kg) was applied to the 5.1 percent that fell into
the particle size distribution P0% to P50%. A literature value of 300 mg/kg was applied to the
3.2 percent that fell into the P80% class. The annual average removal of TSS and TP were
applied to each subwatershed according to the number of sump manholes in that subwatershed
(Table 4.4).

4.3.3 Street Sweeping
The City of Eden Prairie has a street sweeping program and maintains detailed records of
material removed from streets. As described above in section 4.3.2, three samples of street
sweepings were analyzed and an actual particle size distribution developed. Based on that
analysis, it is estimated that about 5.5 percent of the volume of street sweepings was of a particle
size that fell into the P8 TSS particle size class distribution (see Table 4.5). That percent was
applied to the average annual volume of street sweepings removed to obtain an estimate of TSS
removal from sweeping, and as above, P8 and literature TP fractions were applied to estimate the
volume of TP removed. The annual average removal of TSS and TP was allocated among the
watersheds based on the impervious acres in that subwatershed, assuming that the subwatersheds
with more impervious acres had more road surface that were swept (Table 4.6).

4.4 Model Sensitivity
Because the model is not calibrated and is only used for comparison purposes, it is useful to test
the sensitivity of model to selected inputs, especially as we compare model results to real-world
measured removals.
The first parameter that may affect the results of the model is the selection of the particle file.
The current modeling is based on the NURP50 file, which represents the median concentrations
from the NURP studies. To assess the potential effects of underestimating runoff concentrations,
the Bryant Lake subwatershed was analyzed using both the median runoff concentrations
(NURP50) and 90th percentile runoff concentrations (NURP90).
Results of the 50th and 90th percentile runs are presented in Table 4.10 and Table 4.11. Even if
the actual concentrations were more similar to 90th percentile concentrations for both TSS and
TP, the City of Eden Prairie would be meeting the nondegradation requirement.

Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
5.0 SUMMARY AND PROPOSED BMPS
The City of Eden Prairie, in conjunction with the Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek and Nine Mile
Creek Watershed Districts, has been actively managing water quality for the past twenty years.
These activities have included developing and enforcing rules to minimize water quality impacts
from development; building and maintaining sump manholes throughout the city to collect
sediment; and actively sweeping city streets to remove as much material as possible from the
impervious surfaces. These activities have been very effective in the mitigation of increased
TSS and TP loads from the watershed.
The increase in impervious surface between 1990 and 2000 has resulted in increased stormwater
runoff volume, and that volume is expected to continue to increase with further development.
Volume is difficult to remove from the watershed, and it is unlikely that the City will be able to
attain 1988 volume conditions. However, the effects of increased runoff volume can be
minimized or mitigated through stream bank and shoreline stabilization programs, infiltration,
and rate control. Consequently, the best approach to addressing volume is through aggressive
abstraction and mitigation and opportunistic volume control.
5.1 Total Suspended Solids
The combination of development rules, manhole cleanout, and street sweeping has proved
effective in reducing the volume of total suspended solids to a level well below that estimated to
have been contributed in 1988.Most of that removal is a result of application of development
rules and other regulations, but almost one-quarter is achieved through the aggressive street
maintenance program. Each subwatershed meets the Nondegradation Total Suspended Solids
requirement by removing more TSS through regulation and BMPs than the new load generated
since 1988 (see Table 4.8). It should be noted that if any future TMDLs for any water resource
to which Eden Prairie discharges requires additional TSS load reduction, then the City may be
required to remove additional TSS or TP load beyond simply meeting the Nondegradation TSS
and TP requirement.
5.1.1 Regulatory Program
Development rules will continue to require land-altering activities to provide at least NURP-level
removal (80%) of Total Suspended Solids prior to discharge. In accordance with its NPDES
permit, the City annually inspects 20 percent of those detention ponds that are publicly-owned or
that have been placed under a drainage easement to determine maintenance needs and evaluate
whether they continue to perform at the level to which they were designed. City ordinance
requires owners of private stormwater facilities to perform regular maintenance and to operate
those facilities so they continue to perform at the level to which they were designed.
Developer's Agreements specify required maintenance.
City of Eden Prairie 28 Final Agency Review Draft
Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
5.1.1 Manhole Sump Cleanout
This maintenance program removes not only smaller particles that contribute to Total Suspended
Solids, but also larger particles of inorganic and organic material that can contribute to
downstream clarity and water quality issues as well as obstruct pipes, create sediment deltas at
outlets, and aggrade in streams and impair biotic functions. The sumps also collect trash and
debris and prevent it from being discharged into downstream waters.
To maintain removal efficiencies, this cleanout task has to be conducted regularly. It is a costly
activity, requiring significant labor, expensive vacuum equipment, and proper disposal of the
removed material from the almost 650 sump manholes in the city. However, as described above,
this activity has benefits well beyond assisting in meeting Nondegradation TSS removal
requirements.The City will continue to operate and maintain the sump manholes in place
throughout the storm sewer system.
5.1.2 Street Sweeping
This maintenance program removes not only smaller particles that contribute to Total Suspended
Solids, but also larger particles of inorganic and organic material that can contribute to
downstream clarity and water quality issues as well as obstruct pipes, create sediment deltas at
outlets, and aggrade in streams and impair biotic functions. Street sweeping also improves
traffic safety and general aesthetics by removing unsafe or unsightly materials from the streets.
The City currently annually contracts for street sweeping once per year -in the spring to remove
sand and salt residue from winter de-icing plus any spring leaves and seeds and old organic
material .Other street sweeping is performed throughout the year as necessary .The City
recently purchased a new street sweeper to perform additional sweeping on a continued basis,
weather permitting.
Recent research in Wisconsin (Bannerman 2007) indicates that the incremental water quality
benefit of increased street sweeping is small unless the frequency of sweeping is very aggressive.
Street sweeping practices will be refined to improve the water quality and overall benefit of
street sweeping:
1.Spring street sweeping will be performed as early as possible to remove material from the
street before the spring rains.
2.Increased street sweeping frequency may be of benefit in sensitive locations ,where there is
noticeable aggradation in streams or below outfalls or where a UAA or TMDL indicates
that efforts should be maximized to remove pollutant loading .The City will evaluate the
potential benefits of a more aggressive schedule of street sweeping in sensitive areas.
5.1.3 Other Activities
The volume management activities described in section 5.3 below such as increased infiltration,
biofiltration, and runoff volume controls may further reduce TSS and TP loading by pre-treating
or reducing the amount of runoff volume conveying TSS and TP to waters.
City of Eden Prairie 29 Final Agency Review Draft
Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
5.2 Total Phosphorus
As with TSS, the combination of development rules, manhole cleanout, and street sweeping has
proved effective in reducing the volume of total phosphorus to a level below that estimated to
have been contributed in 1988.Most of that removal is a result of application of development
rules, but almost 20 percent is achieved through the aggressive street maintenance program.
Each subwatershed meets the Nondegradation Total Phosphorus requirement by removing more
TP through regulation and BMPs than the new load generated since 1988 (see Table 4.9). It
should be noted that if any future TMDLs for any water resource to which land in Eden Prairie
drains requires additional TP or TSS load reduction, then the City may be required to remove
additional TP or TSS load beyond simply meeting the Nondegradation TP and TSS requirement.
5.2.1 Regulatory Program
Development rules will continue to require land-altering activities to provide at least NURP-level
removal (60%) of Total Phosphorus prior to discharge. In accordance with its NPDES permit,
the City annually inspects 20 percent of those detention ponds that are publicly-owned or that
have been placed under a drainage easement to determine maintenance needs and evaluate
whether they continue to perform at the level to which they were designed. City ordinance
requires owners of private stormwater facilities to perform regular maintenance and to operate
those facilities so they continue to perform at the level to which they were designed.
Developer's Agreements specify required maintenance.
5.2.2 Manhole Sump Cleanout
Phosphorus removal from this activity is calculated as a fraction of the TSS load, representing
phosphorus that is either adsorbed to sediment particles or is part of an organic particle that is so
small that it is suspended and considered part of the TSS load. This method of calculation
ignores the larger organic particles (leaves both whole and shredded, seeds, grass clippings, etc.)
that would not become part of the TSS load, but would be captured in the sump. Therefore, the
method of calculation probably underestimates the amount of phosphorus reduction that can be
achieved through settlement and removal in these sumps. These larger phosphorus sources also
negatively impact downstream water quality.
To maintain the expected removal efficiencies, this cleanout task has to be conducted regularly.
It is a costly activity, requiring significant labor, expensive vacuum equipment, and proper
disposal of the removed material from the almost 650 sump manholes in the city. However, as
described above, the phosphorus reduction achieved by this activity is probably greater than this
analysis would indicate. The City will continue to operate and maintain the sump manholes in
place throughout the storm sewer system.
5.2.3 Street Sweeping
As with the sump manholes above, this maintenance program removes not only smaller particles
that are a fraction of the TSS load, but also larger particles of organic material that can contribute
to downstream clarity and water quality issues. Street sweeping also improves traffic safety and
City of Eden Prairie 30 Final Agency Review Draft
Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
general aesthetics by removing unsafe or unsightly materials from the streets, and reduces the
amount of material on the street that can clog catch basin covers and limit street drainage.
The City currently annually contracts for street sweeping once per year -in the spring to remove
sand and salt residue from winter de-icing plus any spring leaves and seeds and old organic
material.Other street sweeping is performed throughout the year as necessary. The City
recently purchased a new street sweeper to perform additional sweeping on a continued basis,
weather permitting.
Recent research in Wisconsin (Bannerman 2007) indicates that the incremental water quality
benefit of increased street sweeping is small unless the frequency of sweeping is very aggressive.
Street sweeping practices will be refined to improve the water quality and overall benefit of
street sweeping:
1.Spring street sweeping will be performed as early as possible to remove material from the
street before the spring rains.
2.Increased street sweeping frequency may be of benefit in sensitive locations ,where there is
noticeable aggradation in streams or below outfalls or where a UAA or TMDL indicates
that efforts should be maximized to remove pollutant loading .The City will evaluate the
potential benefits of a more aggressive schedule of street sweeping in sensitive areas.
5.2.4 Other Activities
The volume management activities described in section 5.3 below such as increased infiltration,
biofiltration, and runoff volume controls may further reduce TP and TSS loading by pre-treating
or reducing the amount of runoff volume conveying TP and TSS to waters.
5.3 Volume
This report estimates that stormwater volume in the city will increase by about 40 percent
between 1990 and 2020, with most of that volume increase occurring between 1990 and 2000.
Each subwatershed with the exception of SE and SW Anderson Lakes, Round Lake, and Duck
Lake, significantly exceed the Nondegradation Volume Management requirement.
Where new volume is expected to be generated as a result of future development or
redevelopment ,the regulatory program can be a means to achieve some level of volume
management. Best Management Practices in already-developed areas will likely be confined to
small volume management practices retrofitted where opportunities arise, and mitigation of
water quality -related impacts of volume such as streambank stabilization .The City 's water
resources and environmental education programs can also provide information to residential and
other property owners on small -scale volume management practices for individual properties.
5.3.1 Regulatory Program
Abstraction/Infiltration.Neither the City nor the three watershed districts with land in the city
require the infiltration or abstraction of stormwater runoff, although that concept is being
City of Eden Prairie 31 Final Agency Review Draft
Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
discussed as a potential rule change. Abstraction is the removal of stormwater from runoff, and
can include BMPs such as infiltration, evapotranspiration, pervious pavement, and capture and
reuse.Most of the annual volume of stormwater runoff is generated by small rain events, so
abstraction and infiltration of small events can significantly reduce the amount of annual runoff
volume.
Precipitation-frequency curves derived from precipitation records at the Minneapolis-St. Paul
International Airport can be used to estimate the percent of total annual volume that could be
captured through infiltration.About 85 percent of annual stormwater volume is generated from
the first one inch of rainfall - storm events of up to one inch, plus the first inch of events greater
than one inch. A rule requiring abstraction of the first one inch of rainfall could theoretically
reduce new runoff volume by 85 percent. About 80 percent of annual volume is generated from
the first three-quarters inch and 65 percent from the first one-half inch of rainfall.

Figure 5 .1.Annual stormwater volume that could be captured through abstraction/infiltration.
(Wenck Associates, Inc. derived from MPCA Minnesota Stormwater Manual Appendix B.)
A secondary but important benefit of abstraction is that volume is no longer being contributed to
runoff, and is not picking up and transporting pollutants to downstream waters. Research
conducted by Prof. Robert Pitt (Pitt 1998) in the City of Milwaukee suggests that 25 percent of
the annual total phosphorus load is conveyed in the first one-half inch of rainfall, and 15 percent
of the annual TSS load. For the first inch of rainfall, that load is 65 percent of annual TP and 50
percent of annual TSS. In the Twin Cities, 90 percent of all rainfall events are one inch or less.
The most common form of abstraction is infiltration. A growing number of watershed
management organizations are enacting infiltration rules, with one-half inch infiltration from
new impervious surface common. The Ramsey-Washington County Watershed District and
Capitol Region Watershed Districts recently enacted a one inch from new impervious surface
rule, and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District is considering one inch as well. The Nine
Mile Creek Watershed District is discussing abstraction/infiltration of 0.75 inches, and
anticipates considering a rule change in 2008. Following that action the City will adopt an
abstraction/infiltration requirement that is consistent with the district requirement.
City of Eden Prairie 32 Final Agency Review Draft
Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
Adopting an abstraction requirement will reduce the new volume of runoff from developing and
redeveloping areas. Eden Prairie soils are generally of soil hydrologic group B, with A soils on
the bluffs area. These soils readily infiltrate. There are pockets of less permeable C and D soils,
with most of the D soils in the northeast quadrant of the city around Bryant Lake. Most
development and redevelopment should be able to successfully incorporate infiltration, although
the area around Bryant Lake may require soil amendment to achieve any significant infiltration.
An abstraction requirement for new development will only address new volume predicted to
occur between its promulgation and 2020 - about 1,120 acre-feet. However, in the very long-
term, as existing development redevelops, the new volume generated between 1990 and 2000
and prior will slowly be mitigated as redevelopment and reconstruction occurs.
A requirement that required abstraction of three-quarters of an inch could reduce new annual
volume by about 80 percent. The projected new stormwater volume between 2000 and 2020 is
1,120 acre-feet. If 80 percent, or 900 acre-feet was abstracted/infiltrated by rule, then the net
new stormwater volume during that period would be approximately 220 acre-feet.
Soil Management Plan requirement.An assumption in calculating stormwater volume to be
captured from an abstraction requirement is that the part of the site that is pervious and
infiltrating stormwater pre-construction will be as pervious and infiltrate at least as much
stormwater volume post-construction. In reality, construction activities such as mass grading,
road and utility construction, and structure construction lead to soil compaction and loss of
permeability.
To maximize the effectiveness of an infiltration requirement, the City will consider revising its
Land Alteration Permit requiring development and redevelopment to submit a Soil Management
Plan that details how the developer plans to 1) minimize soil compaction from construction
activities, and 2) restore site permeability through actions such as post-construction soil ripping
or soil amendment.
Encourage Low Impact Development (LID).Low Impact Development (LID), Integrated
Management Practices (IMP), and Better site Design principles and practices encourage
developers to consider stormwater impacts of new development early in the planning process.
The City's zoning code includes provisions for Planned Unit Developments that may vary from
strict application of zoning requirements to make it easier to tailor a development to the terrain
and minimize stormwater impacts such as new volume. The City should review its zoning code
and Planned Unit Development process to consider means such as zoning or development
incentives to encourage developers to incorporate these principles to minimize new stormwater
volumes and pollutant loading.
5.3.2 Education Program
The City has in place an education and outreach program to provide information to various
audiences on a wide variety of stormwater management and water quality issues .This program
will target both residential property owners and commercial property owners on ways to
incorporate small infiltration practices on their property.Small-scale practices such as rain
City of Eden Prairie 33 Final Agency Review Draft
Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
gardens, conversion of turf to native vegetation, pond and wetland buffers, installation of rain
barrels and cisterns, and use of pervious pavement and pavers, can add up to significant water
quality and stormwater reductions when broadly applied. The City will also develop targeted
information for developers on incorporating Low Impact Development principles and water
quality and volume management into development and redevelopment.
5.3.3 Structural Improvements
Structural BMPs to manage storm water volume will be constructed as stand-alone projects or
incorporated into other projects such as street reconstruction as opportunities arise. These BMPs
store and infiltrate or evapotranspirate stormwater at the street, block, or neighborhood scale.
The cost per acre-foot for these types of BMPs can be significant as stand-alone projects, but
may be more cost-effective when combined with other improvements such as a neighborhood
street reconstruction project. These types of BMPs also will have the benefit of further reducing
pollutant loading.
Where it is difficult or too costly to significantly reduce new stormwater volume, downstream
water resources will be protected from adverse effects through restoration and stabilization
projects.
Infiltration basins.An infiltration basin is a shallow, vegetated basin designed to hold and
infiltrate stormwater. Some evapotranspiration also occurs. Infiltration basins can have a
significant ongoing maintenance cost. Over time sediment discharged into the basins
accumulates and reduces the infiltration capacity.This sediment must be removed periodically
and permeability restored through soil ripping, soil amendment, etc.
Constructed wetlands.Constructed wetlands can decrease stormwater volume through
evapotranspiration from wetland vegetation as well as evaporation from open water stored in the
wetland.
Underground infiltration.New technologies are available to construct infiltration devices under
large paved areas such as parking lots or streets. These use bottomless underground chambers
constructed on permeable bedding material to store and infiltrate runoff. There is an ongoing
annual cost to remove and dispose of accumulated material from the device.
Streambank stabilization.The new volume of storm water generated through land use change is
conveyed through the system of lakes, wetlands, and small channels into the major streams that
drain the City: Riley Creek, Purgatory Creek, Nine Mile Creek, and to a lesser extent, Bluff
Creek. This additional volume increases peak flow rates and elevations in the streams, and has
the potential to destabilize and erode streambanks. The increased peak flows and streambank
erosion also may stress biological communities in the streams.
These adverse impacts can be mitigated by strengthening streambanks and restoring areas of
existing erosion, as well as considering structural amendments to the stream channel such as rock
vanes.Habitat lost to past impacts can be mitigated with this restoration by revegetating
streambanks, adding step pools, and enhancing substrate.
City of Eden Prairie 34 Final Agency Review Draft
Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
The City and the watershed districts have performed general inventories of the major streams to
identify areas of existing erosion. The City will work in partnership with the watershed districts
to undertake a program of stream restoration. These projects would range from simple spot
repairs of streambanks to potential total restoration of the stream. These projects should
combine both stabilization and habitat enhancement. The cost of stream and shoreline
restoration can vary depending on the extent of existing erosion, access to the site, and whether
easements would be required. In some cases both streambank and in-stream restoration may be
required to restore stability and enhance habitat that has been degraded by sedimentation.
5.3.4 Nonstructural Improvements
Reforestation.Urban trees are an integral part of the storm water management system. Trees
intercept rain and snow fall, storing event volume for later evaporation. Trees also use surface
storage for transpiration, removing additional stormwater volume from the stormwater system.
Trees have other benefits as well. Trees increase property values, provide habitat, take in CO2
and release oxygen, enhance neighborhood aesthetics, and decrease home heating and cooling
costs.The City recognizes this value by requiring, by ordinance, replacement of trees lost to
construction or land alteration.
Numerous studies have been conducted estimating the volume of rainfall that trees intercept (for
example, Xiao et al 2000, McPherson et al 2005a and b). This annual volume is dependant on
the type and species of tree, and whether the tree is isolated, such as an urban street tree, or part
of a forest canopy. For example, evergreen trees can intercept and store more stormwater than
deciduous trees because their narrow leaves provide a greater leaf surface area. The volume also
depends on the intensity of the storm, with less intense events resulting in more interception. On
average, however, literature suggests that an isolated deciduous tree can intercept approximately
25 percent of the annual volume of rainfall that falls upon it. Combined with the daily water use
for transpiration (Wullschleger 1998), it is estimated that a single mature deciduous tree can
evapotranspirate 2,000 - 3,000 gallons of stormwater per year. A coniferous tree can
evapotranspirate an even greater amount.
It is estimated that about 10,000 trees could evapotranspirate about 100 acre-feet of stormwater
volume. The City will evaluate a reforestation program to reduce the amount of rainfall that runs
off the landscape.With approximately 10,500 single family detached units and another 4,000
single family attached units, a goal of planting at least one tree per single family unit could, as
the trees mature, provide about 150 acre-feet of stormwater volume management. Additional
reforestation in commercial and industrial areas, parks, schools, and other public and open spaces
will provide additional volume management benefits.

6.0 SWPPP MODIFICATIONS
The following are the proposed modifications to the City of Eden Prairie SWPPP to address the
findings of this analysis.
6.1 Total Suspended Solids
The City currently meets the Total Suspended Solids requirement.Modifications to the SWPPP
are confined to some refinement of the BMPs for those activities that reduce TSS.
6.1.1 Nonstructural Improvements
Development rules will continue to require land-altering activities to provide at least NURP-level
removal (80%) of Total Suspended Solids prior to discharge. BMP 4a-1 Construction Site
Runoff Control and by reference BMP 5b-1 Post-Construction Site Runoff Control will be
revised to provide for amendment of local controls and the local water management plan to
specify this as a minimum level of pollutant removal performance.
6.1.2 Manhole Sump Cleanout
To maintain removal efficiencies, this cleanout task has to be conducted regularly. BMP 6b-2
Annual Inspections and BMP 6b-5 Inspection Followup describe the actions the City will take to
inspect these sump manholes and perform necessary maintenance. No modifications are
necessary to the SWPPP to adequately document these actions, however, SWPPP narrative will
highlight that these facilities are an important component of the pollutant removal system.
6.1.3 Street Sweeping
Increased street sweeping frequency may be of benefit in sensitive locations, where there is
noticeable aggradation in streams or below outfalls or where a UAA or TMDL indicates that
efforts should be maximized to remove pollutant loading. BMP 6a-2 Street Sweeping will be
revised to add an evaluation of locations where additional street sweeping would be most
effective, such as areas that drain to Impaired Waters or where there are active swimming
beaches. Based on that evaluation the City may perform additional sweeping in those sensitive
areas.
6.1.4 Other Activities
The volume management activities described in section 5.3 above such as increased infiltration,
biofiltration, and runoff volume controls may further reduce TSS loading by pre-treating or
reducing the amount of runoff volume conveying TSS to waters. BMP 5a-1 Post Construction
City of Eden Prairie 36 Final Agency Review Draft

Structural and Nonstructural BMPs will be amended to incorporate these practices into city
construction projects.
6.2 Total Phosphorus
The City currently meets the Total Phosphorus requirement.Modifications to the SWPPP are
confined to some refinement of the BMPs for those activities that reduce TP.
6.2.1 Regulatory Program
Development rules will continue to require land-altering activities to provide at least NURP-level
removal (60%) of Total Phosphorus prior to discharge. BMP 4a-1 Construction Site Runoff
Control and by reference BMP 5b-1 Post-Construction Site Runoff Control will be revised to
provide for amendment of local controls and the local water management plan to specify this as a
minimum level of pollutant removal performance.

6.2.3 Street Sweeping
Increased street sweeping frequency may be of benefit in sensitive locations, where there is
noticeable aggradation in streams or below outfalls or where a UAA or TMDL indicates that
efforts should be maximized to remove pollutant loading. BMP 6a-2 Street Sweeping will be
revised to add an evaluation of locations where additional street sweeping would be most
effective, such as areas that drain to Impaired Waters or where there are active swimming
beaches. Based on that evaluation the City may perform additional sweeping in those sensitive
areas.
6.2.4 Other Activities
The volume management activities described in section 5.3 above such as increased infiltration,
biofiltration, and runoff volume controls may further reduce TP loading by pre-treating or
reducing the amount of runoff volume conveying TP to waters. BMP 5a-1 Post Construction
Structural and Nonstructural BMPs will be amended to incorporate these practices into city
construction projects.
City of Eden Prairie 37 Final Agency Review Draft
Nondegradation Assessment August 2007
6.3 Volume
The City will work cooperatively with the three watershed districts with land in the city to
coordinate regulatory volume management BMPs with watershed district rules.
6.3.1 Regulatory Program
Abstraction requirement.BMP 4a-1 Construction Site Runoff Control and by reference BMP
5b-1 Post-Construction Site Runoff Control will be revised to provide for review and amendment
of local controls and the local water management plan to evaluate and implement an
abstraction/infiltration requirement for new development and redevelopment that is consistent
with watershed district requirements.
Soil Management Plan requirement.BMP 4a- 1 Construction Site Runoff Control and by
reference BMP 5b- 1 Post-Construction Site Runoff Control will be revised to provide for review
and amendment of local controls and the local water management plan to evaluate and
implement a soil management plan requirement for new development and redevelopment.
Evaluate regulatory means to encourage Better Site Design.BMP 5b-1 Post-Construction Site
Runoff Control will be revised to provide for a review of City Ordinances and procedures to
identify means such as zoning or development incentives to encourage developers to incorporate
Low Impact Development (LID), Integrated Management Practices (IMP) or Better Site Design
principles to minimize new stormwater volumes and pollutant loading.
6.3.2 Education Program
The City undertakes an education and outreach program for various audiences on a wide variety
of stormwater management and water quality issues. These are described in various BMPs
implementing Minimum Measure 1 :Public Education and Outreach. These BMPs adequately
generally describe the education and outreach program. Specific topics to be covered in these
activities vary from year to year .The annual list of topics will include information on small
practices for water quality and volume management such as rain gardens, conversion of turf to
native vegetation ,installation of rain barrels and cisterns, and use of pervious pavement and
pavers.Topics will also include developer education regarding stormwater management.
6.3.3 Structural Improvements
Structural Projects.Structural BMPs will be constructed as stand-alone projects or incorporated
into other projects such as street reconstruction as opportunities arise. The highest need is for the
reduction of new stormwater volume generated since 1988. Most structural volume-management
improvements are not cost-effective as stand-alone projects, but may be more cost-effective if
they can be incorporated into other projects such as street reconstruction. BMP 5a-1 Structural
and Nonstructural BMPs will be revised to incorporate pollutant loading and volume
management BMPs on city projects.
City of Eden Prairie 38 Final Agency Review Draft

Mitigation Projects.Where it is difficult to significantly reduce new stormwater volume,
downstream water resources can be protected from adverse effects through restoration and
stabilization projects.BMP 5a-1 Structural and Nonstructural BMPs will be revised to
incorporate development of a stream and shoreline restoration program to mitigate past erosion,
enhance habitat, and prevent future erosion. This program will include city or watershed district
projects, and a grant program to provide assistance to property owners in completing such
projects.
6.3.4 Nonstructural Improvements
Reforestation.BMP 5a-1 Structural and Nonstructural BMPs will be revised to include a goal to
provide opportunities for resident to purchase or plant trees for increased stormwater abstraction.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
1.Property to be Sold.From time to time, Owner will designate items of personal property (the "Property") that it
desires to provide to PropertyRoom for Disposition Services. PropertyRoom retains the right to accept or reject certain
items in its sole discretion.
2.Title.Owner shall retain legal title to the Property until it is purchased by auction or otherwise disposed of in
accordance with this Agreement at which time Owner will be deemed to have transferred title to the purchaser or other
acquirer of the item of Property.Owner appoints PropertyRoom as its attorney-in-fact to sign any and all documents
necessary to assign to purchasers of Property all of Owner's right, title and interest in and to Property sold or disposed.
All cash receipts, accounts receivable, contract rights, notes, general intangibles, and other rights to payment of every
kind, arising out of the sales and dispositions of Property (collectively the "Proceeds") belong to Owner, subject to
PropertyRoom's right to PropertyRoom's Net Proceeds and funds attributable to Credit Card Costs and other transaction
costs.Owner's Property shall, at all times before sale or disposition, be subject to the direction and control of Owner.
3.Method of Selling Property .PropertyRoom will, on Owner's behalf, list Property for sale by auction to the public on
the World Wide Web of the Internet on one or more domain names selected by PropertyRoom. To the extent that any
Property is not sold by auction, PropertyRoom may, in any commercially reasonable manner selected by PropertyRoom,
dispose of Property.PropertyRoom will determine all aspects, terms and conditions of auctions of Property and
dispositions of Property not purchased at auction, subject to the ultimate control of Owner.PropertyRoom will be
responsible for all phases of submitting the Property for auction, including, but not limited to, determining when Property
will be auctioned, setting the opening and reserve prices of Property, if any; determining the selling price, setting the
length of time a Product will be auctioned; creating text and graphics to describe and depict Property submitted for
auction; collecting all purchaser information (such as purchaser's name, billing address, shipping address, and credit
card information); approving purchasers' credit card purchase transactions; and collecting auction proceeds for
completed sales from purchasers. PropertyRoom shall use its best efforts in auctioning and selling the Property on the
Internet and disposing of Property that does not sell at auction. PropertyRoom shall sell and dispose of all Property "as
is"without any liability to the Owner. PropertyRoom is solely responsible for identifying and resolving sales and use tax
collection issues arising from Property sales, including the necessity of charging and collecting such taxes.
4. Allocation of Sales Proceeds.
a.The total amount paid by the purchaser shall be called the "Sales Price". The Sales Price shall include the
winning bid amount (the "Winning Bid") and all costs, shipping and handling charges, taxes, and insurance costs
associated with the transaction and paid by the purchaser.
b. For each item of Property, Owner will be credited with 50% of the first $1,000 of the Winning Bid and 75% of
the portion, if any, of the Winning Bid that exceeds $1,000. From this amount, the owner's pro rata
share of transaction fees, if any, assessed by the credit card processor ("Credit Card Costs") will be
deducted.
c.Credit Card Costs will be borne by Owner and PropertyRoom in proportion to the percentage of the revenue
credited to the parties for each underlying transaction.
d. Amounts received by the Owner will be called "Owner's Net Proceeds".
The following example illustrates how proceeds of a sale are to be allocated.Assume an item of Property sells at
auction for a Winning Bid of $100; the buyer pays shipping and handling of $10, insurance of $2, and sales tax of $6.
The buyer pays the Sales Price of $118.00 by credit card, and the Credit Card Costs are 2% of the Sales Price. The
Credit Card Cost is therefore $2.36 ($118 x .02). The Owner and PropertyRoom each share 50% of the underlying
Winning Bid, therefore Credit Card Costs are also shared equally ($1.18 each). The Owner's Net Proceeds are $48.82
($50.00 less $1.18).
5.Payment Terms. Not less than once every month, PropertyRoom will pay to Owner the amount of Owner's Net
Proceeds payable for completed sales during the preceding month.Sales are deemed completed when all items
comprising a line item on the original manifest or other list of Property are sold.With each payment of Owner's Net
Proceeds, PropertyRoom will make available to Owner a detailed report setting forth the following information for the
immediately preceding month: (i) the completed sales during the prior month, including the total amount of related
proceeds collected, the Owner's and PropertyRoom's share of Credit Card Costs, the Owner's Net Proceeds; (ii) other
dispositions of Property during the month; (iii) the Property, if any, inventoried by PropertyRoom at the end of the month.
6.PropertyRoom's Obligations Concerning Property In Its Possession .With respect to Property in
PropertyRoom's possession: (i) PropertyRoom will exercise due care in the handling and storage of any Property; (ii)

statements or other documents reasonably requested by Owner; (iv) PropertyRoom shall obtain and maintain insurance
in an amount (determined by PropertyRoom) not less than the replacement value of Property in its possession. The

Randy L. Slick Grading Permit for the Liberty Plaza
Public Works / Engineering Project.
Requested Action
Move to:Authorize issuance of a grading permit for a temporary material stockpile to
the Bainey Group for the proposed Liberty Plaza Project.
Synopsis
The Bainey Group is requesting City Council approval for a grading permit for a temporary
stockpile on the Liberty Plaza Project located at 6901 Flying Cloud Drive. The request consists
of temporarily stockpiling 30,000 cubic yards of material on the proposed site.
Background Information
The proposed 30,000 cubic yard stockpile would be used for future soil corrections associated
with the proposed Liberty Plaza office building and parking ramp.
The proximity of the available material at the Wilson Ridge Office Project makes good use of the
excess material. The stockpile would be located north of the existing driveway, in the turf area,
avoiding impacts to the existing SuperValu parking lot.
Erosion control measures incorporated into the stockpile grading activity include: perimeter silt
fence, rock construction entrance, inlet protection and soil stabilization when stockpile is
complete. It is anticipated that use of the stockpile material will occur by the end of this
construction season.

Community Development/Planning Amend City Code Chapter 11Janet Jeremiah Relating to Off-Street Parking
Michael D.Franzen
Requested Action
Move to:
•Close the Public Hearing; and
•Approve 1St Reading of an Ordinance Amending City Code Chapter 11 by adding
new definitions to Section 11.02 ;amending parts of Section 11.03, Subd. 3, H4. e.
relating to off-street parking space requirements for restaurants,retail stores and
shops; and adopting by reference City Code Chapter 1 and Section 11.99 which,
among other things,contains penalty provisions.
Synopsis
The existing parking requirement for restaurants is 1/3 seats. The recommended parking
requirements for restaurants are as follows:
"Restaurant Type 1" - 1/2.5 seats based on capacity (McDonald's)
"Restaurant Type 2" - 1/3 seats based on capacity (Bakers Square)
"Restaurant Type 3" - 1/2 seats based on capacity (Redstone)
The existing parking requirements for retail stores and shops is 6 /1,000 G .F.A.The
recommended parking requirement for retail stores and shops is:
"Retail Stores and Shops - 5/1000 sq. ft.G.F.A.
Reduced parking could provide room on sites for rainwater gardens, trails or sidewalks, public
gathering spaces or public art. It could also provide room for additional development.
Background Information
On October 20, 2006 the staff presented a preliminary parking study to the Planning Commission
that suggested potential changes to retail and restaurant parking requirements based on research
involving other communities, the Urban Land Institute, the Institute of Traffic Engineers, the
American Planning Association and local field observations. The data collected at that time
suggested less parking for general retail at 5/1000 square feet and more parking for restaurant
between 1 space /3 seats to 1 space/2 seats.
On July 23 ,2007, the Planning Commission reviewed a final parking study based on field
observations during the holiday season which supported the preliminary findings that parking
requirements for restaurants should be based on type and general retail parking could be reduced
to 5/1000 GFA.
Planning Commission Recommendation
The Planning Commission voted 8-0 to recommend approval of the changes to retail and
restaurant parking requirements

MEMO:
TO:Planning Commission
FROM :Michael D. Franzen, City Planner
DATE:October 20, 2006
SUBJECT:Parking Study
BACKGROUND
Meg Beckman, intern ,will be making a presentation about potential changes to the City code
to reduce parking requirements for retail and raise parking requirements for restaurants.
The Planning Commission should consider the report as a work in progress. The data provided
so far suggests that less parking may work. Additional field work during the holidays is needed
to look at peak parking demand. Parking lots that are not full during holiday peak is a clear
indication that parking can be reduced without creating impacts such as parking in fire lanes,
parking on commercial streets, or parking on residential streets next to neighborhood
commercial sites.
The staff is seeking your input to determine if we are headed in the right direction and if there
are other items you feel should be included as part of completing the study.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF REDUCED PARKING
•Provides an area for rainwater gardens.
•Provides an area for trails or sidewalks.
•Provides an area for public art.
•Create an economic benefit by allowing more building
POTENTIAL IMPLICATIONS OF REDUCED PARKING
•Will the City allow on street parking, require parking decks or convert green space
back to parking if there is not enough parking?
•Will reduced parking affect residential areas next to neighborhood commercial sites?
•What impact will reduced parking have on residents and businesses?
•Will lower parking requirements allow the owners reasonable tenant flexibility since
uses and parking demands will change according to the market?
•Will reduced parking leave enough room for snow storage?
MEMO:
TO:Planning Commission
FROM :Michael D. Franzen, City Planner
DATE:July 20, 2007
SUBJECT :Changes to City Code for Retail and Restaurant Parking
Requirements
BACKGROUND
On October 20, 2006 the staff presented a parking study that suggested potential changes to
retail and restaurant parking requirements based on research involving other communities, the
Urban Land Institute, the Institute of Traffic Engineers, the American Planning Association
and local field observations. The data collected at that time suggested less parking for general
retail at 5/1000 square feet and more parking for restaurant between 1 space /3 seats to 1
space/2 seats.
Staff suggested to the Planning Commission that a peak holiday parking study was needed. A
lower parking demand would be a clear indication that existing parking requirements could be
lowered without creating parking in fire lanes, loading areas, and on public streets.
HOLIDAY PEAK HOUR FIELD DATA
Since the market was providing more parking on stand alone restaurants sites than the code
required and was aligned with previous research, only shopping centers with restaurants were
studied.
From October 29, 2006 to December 29, 2006 staff analyzed seven shopping centers between
noon and 1 PM. Prairie Courts was studied between 6:00 and 6:30 since Timber Lodge peak
hour business is evening. The results are as follows.
Prairie Courts (Timber Lodge)
Holiday Data
4.99 spaces /1,000
Summer Data
4.60 spaces/1,000
Lariat Center (Applebees)4.40 spaces / 1,000 4.88 spaces/1,000
Tower Square (Red Moon, Quiznos)3.77 spaces /1,000 4.33 spaces/1,000
Lariat 2 (Green Mill)4.90 spaces /1,000 3.40 spaces/1,000
Chesnut (Vietnamese)2.25 spaces /1,000 4.20 spaces/1,000
Rainbow (Beijing)3.70 spaces /1,000 2.20 spaces/1,000
Eden Glen (Bakers Rib, Leann Chin)5.90 spaces /1,000 3.90 spaces/ 1,000
4.16 spaces/1,000 3.02 spaces/1,000
(986 spaces)(681 spaces)
The ratio of parking observed varies according to the type of uses in the shopping centers.
Shopping centers with a higher percentage of restaurant space have a higher parking demand.
Use and parking demand will change as tenants come and go. For these reasons and based on
previous research the staff would recommend a ratio of 5 spaces/ 1,000 SF.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The parking recommendations for restaurants are as follows
"Restaurant Type 1" - 1/2.5 seats based on capacity (McDonald's)
"Restaurant Type 2" - 1/3 seats based on capacity (Bakers Square)
"Restaurant Type 3" - 1/2 seats based on capacity (Redstone)
The parking recommendation for retail stores and shops is :
"Retail Stores and Shops -5/1000 sq. ft .G.F.A.
POTENTIAL BENEFITS OF REDUCED PARKING
•Provides an area for rainwater gardens.
•Provides an area for trails or sidewalks.

CODE AMENDMENT REGARDING RESTAURANT & RETAIL
PARKING REQUIREMENTS
Franzen pointed out there was a presentation made to the Commission
Members in October regarding this issue of reducing parking requirements
for retail and restaurant areas.Staff suggested to the Commission that a
peak holiday parking study was needed. A study was done from October
29, 2006 to December 29, 2006. Based on this study Staff
recommendations and benefits are listed on page 2 of the staff report. The
parking recommendations for restaurants are as follows:
"Restaurant Type 1 -1 / 2.5 seats based on capacity (Bakers Square)
"Restaurant Type 2 -1 / 3 seats based on capacity (McDonalds)
"Restaurant Type 3 -1 / 2 seats based on capacity (Redstone)
The parking recommendation for retail stores and shops is:
"Retail stores and shops - 5/1000 sq. ft. G.F.A.
Potential benefits of reduced parking are as follows:
Provides and area for rainwater gardens; provides an area for trails or
sidewalks; provides an area for public art; create an economic benefit by
allowing more building.
Pitzrick asked Franzen how we deal with shared parking spaces. This is
accomplished by a cross parking agreement with Canyon Grille. The issue
was initially having more seats in the restaurant than parking spaces they
had access to during lunch. As a result the seating was reduced to 255
since only 85 spaces were available during lunch. In the evening, parking
is not as issue since Canyon Grille can use the deck.
Koenig asked Franzen if the parking issues with Champps and Red Stone
have been resolved. Franzen said initially it was an issue but stores next
to Champps have private security monitoring the parking, which has
alleviated the situation.
Stoelting opened the meeting up for public input. There was no input.
Powell stated he would like more businesses to start with porous
pavement. He would like the City Council to require businesses to have
porous pavement in the development of their properties. Franzen stated
this is something that certainly could be addressed when the Commission
and City Council have their joint meetings. Pitzrick said, in regards to this
issue, we should go beyond restaurant and retail areas.
MOTION by Powell, seconded by Rocheford, to close the pubic hearing.
Motion carried 8-0.
MOTION by Powell, seconded by Koenig, to recommend approval of the
code change to restaurant and retail parking requirements based on the
staff report dated July 20, 2006 and the draft ordinance.Motion carried
