MINNESOTA LAND TRUST
Guidelines for Limited Development/Open Space Conservation Easements
Purpose: To help guide MLT's participation in limited developmenttopen space/cluster
subdivisions so that the conservation easement executed by the landowner and MLT is clear,
enforceable, and protective of justifiable conservation values.
Steps:
1. Landowner approaches MLT with plan or idea of a limited development subdivision on the
land in question.
2. MLT offers advice on consulting with design and development experts to create a subdivision
that truly respects and protects the conservation values present on the land to be protected (may
include references to Randall Arendt's books and other resources on design of successful
projects).
3. Landowner, developer and MLT meet to discuss details of proposed projects. Criteria used by
MLT to evaluate project will include:
a. Strategy and Criteria for Evaluating Land Protection Proposals(copy attached)
b. % of total land to be protected by conservation easement
(should require at least 50% of'buildable'land, more in some cases)
c. public benefit-this is an IRS requirement for the income tax deduction and should
be considered in every project. Often, the proximity/view from an adjacent public road
or other public area is sufficient. Beware of so-called backyard easements, where the
back part of the property(which is not even viewable by the public) is what's being
proposed for an easement.
d. surrounding land uses-e.g. existing protected public or private land adjacent to
proposed project, potential for trail connections, etc. Negative surrounding uses may be
industrial/commercial property, etc. Each site must be evaluated individually.
e. overall potential success of project; design of housing to be built; reaction of local
government authorities to proposal; etc.
e. potential reflection of project on MLT reputation in the community.
4. MLT board to give preliminary approval/disapproval to project as soon as possible so
landowner/developer can revise plans if necessary.
5. If landowner/developer is concerned about tax implications, they need to review same with
their attorney/tax advisor/appraiser EARLY in the process, before the easement is signed and
•
before the project is approved by the local government authority.
6. MLT may discuss project with local authority during the process, if a local ordinance or other
regulation is at issue.
7. If all above goes well, conservation easement is given final approval by MLT board and
executed by landowner and MLT at an appropriate time during the subdivision process. Again,
tax implications may dictate the timing of the actual closing of the easement transaction.
NOTE: In all limited development/open space/cluster subdivision projects, an endowment
donation will be expected in the range of$5,000 and up (see endowment policy for details).
MLT's board of directors will suggest the amount as early as possible in the process, probably at
the discussion regarding preliminary approval.

I. CALL MEETING TO ORDER
Mayor Harris called the meeting to order at 6:35 p.m. All Councilmembers were present.
II. STAFF REVIEW OF HISTORICAL BACKGROUND, PRESENT BUSINESS
ACTIVITY, AND FUTURE PROJECTIONS
Enger gave an overview of the liquor enterprise in Eden Prairie and introduced the three Liquor
Store Managers. Frane reviewed the chronology of the liquor enterprise.
Case asked if the 1982 vote on the Split-Liquor option was required by law in order to get
approval from the voters. Frane said the vote in 1982 was held because of the law requiring
such a vote once a city has a population over 10,000.
Frane reviewed the sales, gross margin and operating income for 1995 operations.
Tyra-Lukens asked why we don't generate the same level of operating income as do Edina and
Richfield. Franc said our margin does not kick in until we recover the basic costs of operation.
Those two cities are adjacent to the area of south Minneapolis that does not have liquor stores,
consequently their sales are greater and they recover their basis costs sooner..
Case asked what fixed expenses we have that they don't. Franc said owning versus leasing is a
large factor.
Enger said the Minnesota Municipal Beverage Association (MMBA) will provide a consultant

number; and size. He noted that municipal liquor stores are usually owned, not leased. They
are considering ownership status for a store in the Preserve area, as well as new locations in
northwest Eden Prairie and southwest Eden Prairie. He said we should be able to compete with
private liquor stores, however warehouse stores could be an issue.
Tyra-Lukens asked what the gross margin is at private liquor stores. Enger said staff would
have to research that.
Thorfinnson said he would like to see the per capita figures for other cities and comparisons of
how many stores those cities have, how big the stores are, and whether stores are owned or
leased. Schepers reviewed what he knew about stores in other nearby cities.
Frane said we will get a report from the consultant about whether our gross margins are
comparable to industry standards.
Case would like to have statistics on our cigarette sales. Harris asked if Staff could prepare that
study unless it would be included in the MMBA study.
III. PROPOSED MANAGEMENT STUDY OF LIQUOR OPERATIONS
Enger said the MMBA study will be free of charge, and he would suggest we go through with
it. Their only requirement is that the City Manager, the Liquor Manager or the Mayor read the
study. Councilmembers would have the option to be interviewed for the study. He said they
would be looking into several of the questions raised tonight. Butcher-Younghans asked if this
study is offered to us as a member of the MMBA. Enger said that was correct.
Enger noted he would like to have us pursue the Retailer's Award given by the MMBA.
Harris thought the consensus of the Council was to go forward with the study. She also
thought we need to address the issue of whether we are in this for control or for profit, but we
can wait for the study to see what it presents.

VIII. PETITIONS, REQUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
A. PETITION FROM RESIDENTS OF HIDDEN GLEN NEIGHBORHOOD
(Continued from May 20, 1997)
Jullie said this is a continued item from the May 20, 1997 City Council meeting. Our
Engineering staff has completed a review of the petition from the Hidden Glen
neighborhood for a temporary closure of Pleasantview Road at its intersection with
CSAH 101. We concur that this closure is appropriate because of the uniqueness of
this situation. The alignment and proximity of this roadway to the nearby construction
project make it especially attractive for cut-through traffic. This roadway is very
residential in character and design and should not be expected to handle such large
volumes of cut-through traffic. A partial closing(i.e., no right turns) would be costly to
enforce and not as effective. "This temporary closure would not last longer than October
15, 1997.
Dietz reviewed the staff memorandum of June 3, 1997. He noted that, following the
closure, there probably will be a period of time when cars will use the street and will
have to turn around at the closed end. City staff is prepared to close the street by Friday
of this week; however, the right turn lane northbound to Pleasantview Road will have to
have barrels placed in it, and that will require the cooperation of Hennepin County.
There will be signs at the west and east ends advising that the roadway will be closed as
of June 6. The signs will remain throughout the closure, which will remain until about
October 15, or until Hwy 101 is opened to traffic again.
Case said he did not see a temporary signal at the intersection by the Tom Thumb store.
Dietz said there isn't one. Case expressed concern about a process to reconstruct roads
that does not look at a neighborhood like this and anticipate that such a traffic situation
will occur. Dietz said the alternative would have been to designate a specific detour
route, and there aren't many good options.

Case said the neighbors have suggested there be no right turn on red north on Dell and
east on Hwy 62. He asked if we could suggest that to the County. Dietz said the sign
would be in their right-of-wad; however, we could look into it as part of the operations
at that intersection.
MOTION: Thorfmnson moved, seconded by Case, to approve the temporary closure
of Pleasantview Road at its intersection with CSAH 101 as per the recommendation of
the Engineering Staff Report of June 3, 1997. Motion carried 5-0.
V. PUBLIC HEARINGS/MEETINGS
A. CROWN AVIATION by David Crown. Request for Site Plan Review on .7 acres for
construction of an 18,125 sq. ft. hangar. Location: 14871 Pioneer Trail at west end of
hangar row along Pioneer Trail. (Resolution 97-107 for Site Plan Review)
Julie said the official notice of this Public Hearing was published on May 22, 1997 in
the Eden Prairie News and mailed to one property owner. The request is to construct
an 18,125 square foot hangar on 0.7 acres and is in conformance with the Flying Cloud
Airport Design Framework Manual.
Dave Crown, owner of Crown Aviation, reviewed his request. He questioned the
requirement for brick facing since MAC plans to do some additional building in the
vicinity and it might be covered up. He also was not sure about the landscaping
requirements because the only available location for the plantings is the natural drainage
ditch on the property and they would not survive there for very long.
Enger said the Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of this
project at its May 27, 1997 meeting, subject to the recommendations of the Staff
Report of May 23. He said the only items required in the Design Framework Manual
are concerned with landscaping and the facing of the building. He said if there are still
questions about those two items, we would need more time to address them because the
Planning Commission made their recommendations with those items in mind and
because they understood that the Design Framework Manual would be adhered to. The
Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission did not review this project.
Harris understood there might be some flexibility in terms of material and placement.
Case asked where the drainage ditch is in relation to the airport. Crown said the
drainage ditch is between the soccer fields and the airport.
Crown asked if there is any general fund that they could use to pool money to plant
trees and shrubs in other areas in the airport where they would be more likely to survive.
Enger said that would seem to be a good idea and worth pursuing. He said the plans
and the staff report indicate trees adjacent to the parking area and staff felt something
practical could be done along the top of the drainage ditch. Enger thought the Council
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
June 3, 1997
Page 5
might want to refer this to staff to work out with proponent.
Case was concerned when rules are made that are not flexible enough to bend to the
situation. He thought the intent of the Design Framework Manual makes sense, but he
thought the manual should have specified those areas that we want to enhance.
Tyra-Lukens asked how imminent is the construction of the building on the north side.
Crown said the Williams pipeline goes through there, so he was not sure when, or if', the
building would be constructed in that location.
Councilmembers then discussed the brick facing and plantings. The consensus was to
put the plantings on the west and the bricks on the north and to have the plantings be
primarily trees. Tyra-Lukens asked how we would handle it if MAC denies the request
to plant trees. Case thought we are approving a dollar amount, and MAC would have to
determine that.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Tyra-Lukens moved, seconded by Case, to close the Public Hearing.
Motion carried 5-0.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to adopt Resolution 97-107 for
Site Plan review on .7 acres, with the condition that plantings be placed on the west side
of the building with the plantings to consist primarily of trees. Motion carried 5-0.
B. LAKE CORPORATE CENTER by Moen Leuer Construction. Request for PUD
Concept Review on 8.64 acres, PUD District Review on 8.64 acres, Zoning District
Amendment in the I-2 Park District on 8.64 acres and Site Plan Review on 8.64 acres.
Location: Wallace Road. (Resolution 97-108 for PUD Concept Review and
Ordinance for PUD District Review and Zoning District Amendment)
Jullie said the official notice of this Public Hearing was published on May 22, 1997 in
the Eden Prairie News and mailed to 21 property owners. The site plan for this project
shows construction of a one-story, 70,641 square foot building on 8.64 acres.
Debbie Broadsho, representing proponent, reviewed the proposal to build a warehouse
building adjacent to the School District property. She said a School District
representative was concerned at a neighborhood meeting that additional landscaping be
provided on their side of the project. They will be happy to do that, but there is an
easement issue there. She also reviewed the proposed landscaping and reforestation
plan.
Butcher-Younghans asked what the grading will be. Broadsho said the elevation is 882,
and the grading will be very close to that.
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
June 3, 1997

Enger said the Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of this
project at its May 12, 1997 meeting, subject to the recommendations of the Staff
Report of May 9. He reviewed the waivers required for the project.
Lambert said the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission recommended
approval on a 6-0-1 vote at their May 19, 1997 meeting, subject to the
recommendations of the Staff Reports of May 9 and May 14. Commissioner Kracum
abstained from voting because of his proximity to the property.
Butcher-Younghans liked the plan and most of the residents she heard from did too.
Case said he heard from some residents who were not as pleased. He had concerns
about the bigger ramifications and the process that brought us to this point. He thought
it makes sense from the perspective of someone driving down Wallace Road; however
viewing it from the residential area to the south raises some questions.
Case asked when we are on safe legal ground to call into question a project that requires
this many waivers. He understands this predates our ten acre minimum requirement;
however, several commissioners had concerns about squashing this onto the property.
He was troubled by the transition between industrial and residential zones, but he liked
the way the traffic impact is minimized. He was concerned about headlights not being
totally blocked from the residential neighborhoods. He noted the Parks Commission
discussed shifting a couple of parking spaces to save some trees. He thought we should
consider all ways to better the view from Scenic Heights Road and do anything possible
to save trees.
Tyra-Lukens thought this was a problematic project. She liked the idea, the building
and the location but was concerned about setting a precedent to have total blockage of
headlights from residential buildings. She thought most of the traffic would be during
the daytime. She was concerned about the number of waivers being requested and was
not sure what the citizens are gaining by granting variances to the proponent. She could
not see the hardship case for granting the waivers.
Enger said this is part of an existing 35-year old industrial area. The School District
building is permanent in that location. He thought we have reviewed the questions of
whether this type of building at a floor area ratio less than that permitted is preferable
and whether other uses have been explored. Townhoses would be isolated in this area,
and he thought the project makes eminent sense on this site because it completes the
pattern of industrial development in this area. We have granted shoreland ordinance
variances in commercial areas fairly extensively, based on merit. He thought we need to
look at it in total and look at the land use. He thought the question is whether it is a
suitable project for the location or should we look for a different land use.
Tyra-Lukens liked the project and thought it fills in very well. Her concern was with the
number of different variances we are granting with this parcel. Enger said the Staff
Report enumerates the valid reasons for the variances, and such projects almost always
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
June 3, 1997
Page 7
include several waivers because of the way the shoreland ordinance was given by the
state.
Harris was sensitive to the problematic location for several other types of development,
and she thought this is a reasonable use of the land.
Case's concern was with setting a precedent of blocking headlights. This is high up and
abuts residential areas. They have several truck bays, and he thought it would not be
difficult to exchange or mitigate that situation. He asked Staff to look into that issue and
make a determination.
Broadsho reviewed the landscaping plan with terraced plantings that will fill in and
eventually block out the building.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Tyra-Lukens moved, seconded by Thorfmnson, to close the Public
Hearing. Motion carried 5-0.
MOTION: Butcher-Younghans moved, seconded by Thorfmnson, to adopt
Resolution 97-108 for PUD Concept Review on 8.64 acres; to approve 1st Reading of
the Ordinance for PUD District Review and Zoning District Amendment in the I-2 Park
District on 8.64 acres; and to direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement
incorporating Commission and Staff recommendations. Motion carried 5-0.
VI. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS
Case asked if, in the summary listing on the front of the Payment of Claims, it would be
possible to group these into departments so we could get more of a feel for the outflow and the
costs of services. Jullie thought we can do that within the system, but he will check it out and
report back.
Thorfmnson thought the checks written are not reflective of the monthly expenses and represent
only the amount paid out during the course of the month. He didn't know what the benefit
would be and would probably make more work for staff
Case thought it would be more a matter of getting used to doing it by group, and it would give a
general sense of what the different departments are doing.
Harris suggested we send the idea to staff; however, she was not sure we would get what we
want without a great deal of detail.
MOTION: Thorfmnson moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to approve the Payment of Claims
as submitted. Motion carried on a roll call vote, with Butcher-Younghans, Case,
Thorfmnson, Tyra-Lukens and Harris voting "aye."

VII. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS
IX. REPORTS OF ADVISORY BOARDS & COMMISSIONS
A. SOUTHWEST METRO TRANSIT COMMISSION(Councilmember Nancy
Tyra-Lukens)
Tyra-Lukens said there will be an increase in the Telebus fare from 50 cents to $1.75
per ride. They are working with social service groups to get some sort of subsidy to
help low-income users of the service. She said the commission recommended that the
Executive Director discuss with the City that they be involved in the development of
parcels of land around the transit hub.
She reviewed what has been happening in the state legislature regarding the gas tax and
the omnibus transportation finance bill. There are some possible changes in the local
levy option, and the local levy may become part of the levy limit. The Executive
Director is meeting with some people tomorrow to see what the impact will be.
Case asked if we are permitted not to levy. Tyra-Lukens said we can choose not to
levy; however, if we don't, the Met Council then has an incentive to not honor bills
because they get half of the money that is not spent. Harris thought it would be useful
to have staff look at this and bring some recommendations back to the Council.
XI. REPORTS OF OFFICERS
A. REPORTS OF COUNCILMEMBERS
1. Report on I-494 Corridor Commission
Thorfmnson said the group unanimously approved a change in direction on the
Hwy 394 demonstration issue to allow a toll. They have not yet presented it to
Edina because they have not been able to get on the agenda there. Maple Grove
has not endorsed it because they believe it conflicts with their efforts to build
Hwy 610. Two representatives of the group will go to Washington D.C. in two
weeks to meet with Minnesota Senators and Representatives to talk about Hwy
494 and alternatives.
Harris noted she will be distributing some material from a meeting of a task
force that is looking at congestion. She said MnDOT has identified categories
and will hold focus groups around the metropolitan area to test their assumptions
and proposed strategies.
Thorfinnson noted it is a very real possibility that, if the demonstration project
works on Hwy 394, NA,e will see it on 494 because they are looking at it as a way
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES

to pay for additional lanes.
X. APPOINTMENTS
A. APPOINTMENT TO FILL VACANCY ON THE ARTS COMMISSION FOR A
TERM TO EXPIRE MARCH 31, 2000
Julie said due to the resignation of Rachel Hutter from the Arts Commission, a vacancy
now exists for a term which expires March 31, 2000. He noted there are three
applicants from the last appointment process that expressed interest in the commission.
Thorfmnson nominated John Murray. Tyra-Lukens nominated Andrea McGillan.
MOTION: Butcher-Younghans moved, seconded by Thorfmnson, to close the
nominations. Motion carried 5-0.
Councilmembers then voted by a raise of hands, as follows: four votes for McGillan
(Harris, Tyra-Lukens, Butcher-Younghans and Case); one vote for Murray
(Thorfmnson).
Andrea McGillan will be appointed to fill the vacancy on the Arts Commission for a
term to expire March 31, 2000.
XI. REPORT OF OFFICERS
B. REPORT OF CITY MANAGER
C. REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF PARKS, RECREATION & NATURAL
RESOURCES
1. Nesbitt Preserve Park
Lambert said during the staff review process for replacing the playground
equipment at Nesbitt Preserve Park, they decided it was appropriate to address
some of the other problems at that park. He said they have learned it is not a
good idea to use ponds for free-skating areas, especially if they have springs in
them as this one does. After touring the park and considering a different layout
for the park, the Parks Commission recommended on a unanimous vote to
consider delaying the replacement of the equipment until we have redone the
rest of the park. The CIP calls for replacing the warming house in 1999, and
they would like to transfer this year's funding for replacing this playground
structure to replace the equipment at Hidden Ponds Park.
He said staff will begin the process to revise the master plan for Nesbitt Preserve
Park to change the location of the skating facilities and playground and to
9

develop picnic facilities on the southwest corner of the park. They will have to
notify the residents within the service area and invite them to a Parks
Commission meeting to discuss some of the problems we have and some of the
recommendations for changes.
Harris liked the proposed new design and thought most people will be very
pleased with it.
Butcher-Younghans asked if the surfaces between the warming house and the
skating facilities will be wooden walkways. Lambert said it would be an
eight-foot asphalt trail that they would cover with a rubberized surface in the
winter.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Butcher-Younghans, to approve the
process for revising the Master Plan for Nesbitt Preserve Park and to approve
the transfer of replacement funding for playground equipment as per the Staff
Agenda Report of June 3, 1997. Motion carried 5-0.
D. REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT
E. REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
1. Discussion of Lawn Watering Restrictions
Dietz said we need to get information out and begin to enforce the watering
restrictions. He reviewed the water usage over the past weekend that led to
staffs recommendation to begin enforcing the restrictions. He said they plan to
blanket the City with the information about the restrictions. They will hang the
information packet on the doorknob or the mailbox on Thursday of this week if
the Council agrees with the Staff recommendations. They would then have four
staff members go out on Saturday to give notices of violation.
Thorfinnson thought it is inevitable that we would use the information at some
point this summer, if not this week. Dietz noted they would distribute the
information, but the enforcement on the weekend would depend on whether we
get rain before the weekend.
Harris thought we could consider having posters at the Eden Prairie Center and
other locations. Dietz said WCCO and the TV stations have been responsive to
providing information about cities that have severe water problems. Staff has
avoided going to the media because they did not think we are in a critical
situation.
Butcher-Younghans thought it may be a matter of people knowing about the
10
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
June 3, 1997
Page 11
restrictions but making a choice to water anyway. She thought the monetary
penalty will have an impact.
Case asked if it is worth putting ads in the newspaper. Dietz said he has talked
to Mark Weber about devoting some space in the paper to this. He said the
Eden Prairie News has done a very good job of reporting information, but there
has always been an association with an emergency and they don't recognize this
as an emergency.
Harris thought it was important to get this out as early as possible because
changes do not occur overnight. Dietz said the City employee would have to see
the violation. Staff discussed the merits of writing a "ticket" versus putting it on
the water bill and decided the three-part ticket form would have more impact.
Case asked how they will differentiate those people who are watering off a well.
Dietz said we will hear from them if we give them a notice of violation.
MOTION: Thorfmnson moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to approve the
Staff recommendations regarding water restrictions. Motion carried 5-0.

David Lindahl CONSIDER ESTABLISHING A
TAX INCREMENT FINANCING
(TIF) DISTRICT
Requested Council Action:
Approve Resolution calling for a public hearing August 5, 1997 to consider establishing a Tax Increment
Financing (TIF) District. The purpose of the proposed TIF District is to help finance the construction of a
32-unit moderate-cost rental townhouse project on a site at the southeast corner of Mitchell Road and Valley
View Road, across from the PDQ Store.
State law requires that before a public hearing is held to establish a TIF District a resolution must first be
passed by the City Council for the hearing.
Background:
City staff has been working with developer Jim Deanovic over the past few months on a 32-unit townhouse
proposal very similar to the Columbine project approved by the City Council in early 1996. The project will
be affordable to low and moderate income families and will help the City meets its Livable Communities
Goals for 1997. The City is being asked to provide TIF and CDBG financing to help make the rents
affordable.
Details of the TIF plan will be presented to the City Council/HRA on August 5, 1997.

BACKGROUND:
Staff at Forest Hills Elementary School have been working with the City of Eden Prairie and with the
Nine-Mile Creek Watershed District over several years to plan and develop a walking trail through
the wetland area within Forest Hills School Park. The wetland woods walking trail has been
developed by students, Boy Scouts, and school staff and is utilized for outdoor education programs.
The majority of the trail is a woodchip trail; however, there are portions of trail that require a
boardwalk, especially during the spring or after heavy rains. The boardwalk will be purchased by the
PTO and installed by the Twin Cities Tree Trust.
Attached for your review is a request from Connie Hytjan, Principal at Forest Hills Elementary
School, and Michael Boland, a parent volunteer, requesting City approval of this project.

The Honorable Jean Harris
Mayor
City of Eden Prairie
Dear Ms. Harris:
I would respectfully ask the City's permission to install a Board-walk on parts of the Wetland
Woods Walking Trail. The Wetland Woods Walking Trail at Forest Hills Elementary has been a
great success for students and neighborhood residents alike, since its inception five years ago. The
trail is being used in conjunction with educational resources as a"hands on" outdoor laboratory
for the elementary students and by many of the neighborhood residents for recreational fun and
sightseeing.
In an effort to improve the trail and its curriculum, twenty learning stations and an outdoor
classroom were added to the trail in the fall of 1996. Unfortunately, many classes are being
forced to shorten or cancel their trail visits because of excessive wetness on the north end of the
trail.
Working with the PTO, Nine Mile Watershed Management District, Twin Cities Tree Trust and
Eden Prairie Parks and Recreation Department we have developed a plan to install pre-fabricated
plastic board-walk over the wettest areas of the trail. The PTO and The Watershed District have
provided some funding for the project and Tree Trust will install the board-walk at no cost.
The board-walk consists of foam filled recycled textured plastic and comes in 3 1/2' X 5' sections
that cost$165 each. We currently have funding to install 35-40 feet of board-walk over the
wettest part of the trail. We hope to begin the installation in mid-August.
Please call Michael Boland with any questions you have on this project at 934-7279, and thank
you for your help and support of this project.
Sincerely,

dated May 19, 1997, from Rick LaMothe, Concession Coordinator.
Lambert indicated the Soccer Club has requested to place a storage trailer
from June 26 to July 13 at Miller Park in order to provide for secured
concessions. The City does not ordinarily approve these kinds of things to
be stored overnight on park property; however, until the City is able to
provide concession/storage buildings for the various facilities in Miller Park,
the City will have to accommodate association requests. Staff recommended
approval of the request.
MOTION: Hilgeman moved, seconded by Koenig, to approve the request
for the Eden Prairie Soccer Club to place a temporary storage trailer at Miller
park per the memo of May 20, 1997. Motion carried 6-0.

Hilgeman asked where the money would be coming from. Lambert replied
cash park fees.
Koenig asked if there was any chance the Heyvaerts would donate the
money. Lambert said they did not offer.
Jacobson asked if this hydrant and pipeline are going to be permanent.
Lambert said yes and explained where the pipeline would run. The hydrant
will be placed in a location where no matter what's going to happen on that
site, it will be utilized. It is an historic site and there will be programs taking
place so it would always be good to have a few drinking fountains on that
site. It will be within approximately 40 feet of the barn, 120 feet from the
house.

Hilgeman commented when the Heyvaerts first came to the City about their
proposal to help relocate the arena, they indicated they would need water
there at some point.

C. Request from Soccer Club to Extend the 10:00 p.m., Light Usage at
Miller Park for Two Weekends
Staff referred the Commission to a memo dated May 29, 1997 from Bob
Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources; and a letter
dated May 29, 1997 from Rick Baredziak, Eden Prairie Soccer Club.
Lambert explained the request from the Soccer Club is to allow them to
extend the lights at the park for any game that might be delayed due to injury
or rain beyond 10:00 p.m. He indicated to them that the City does not
support the request. When the park and lights were put in, the City made a
commitment to the residents around the park that those lights would be off
at 10:00. Staff told the residents to expect requests from the different athletic
associations for one reason or another.
During the first year of the park usage the Softball Association held a
national tournament and the City granted a "one time" temporary extension
to be allowed if games ran over due to rain, delays, injuries, etc. This was

TRANSIT COMMISSION
Participation in Local Levy Transit IV K
• •
Option for 1998
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
According to statute,each year, SMTC must request that its three service communities participate
in the Local Levy Transit Option which provides that the City,instead of the Metropolitan Council,
levy the transit tax for its property owners. Regardless of the amount levied by the City for transit
purposes, SMTC agrees that its budget and spending will remain within the limits set by the levy.
After approval by Eden Prairie and the other two cities, SMTC will notify the Metropolitan Council
and the Commissioner of Revenue of the intent of the cities and SMTC to participate in the option.
The deadline for that notification is June 30.
BACKGROUND:
The adoption of the resolution sets a maximum transit levy amount for the City of Eden Prairie to
levy its property owners. As with the city's process, this is not necessarily a final levy number,
but a maximum amount which will not be exceeded for 1998. Meetings were held with the three
City Managers to discuss the levy in greater detail. These discussions will help SMTC to reach
more decisive numbers for 1998 budget planning purposes. Of course,detailed budgets will be
completed in tandem with the City's processes and presented for Council review.
It should be noted that,in the event the City does not levy the transit tax, the Metropolitan Council
will levy the transit tax. The result would be less control of the transit service provided to the
residents and businesses of this area, as well as loss of local control over the agency's budget and
funding. There would be no decrease in the levy amount to property owners.
BUDGET IMPACT:
This action will not impact the local budget for the City of Eden Prairie.
REOUESTED ACTION:
That the Eden Prairie City Council adopt the resolution declaring its intent to
exercise the Local Transit Levy Option for Taxes in 1998.

473.388, subdivision 4; and,
WHEREAS, said local transit levy will replace a similar transit tax levy which would otherwise
be made by the Metropolitan Council; and,
WHEREAS,in order to effectively exercise the local transit tax levy option, it is necessary that
each of the Cities of Eden Prairie, Chanhassen, and Chaska,notify the State Commissioner of
Revenue and the Metropolitan Council of its intent to levy the taxes before July 1 of each levy year

and,
WHEREAS,it is in the best interest of the City of Eden Prairie that it declare its intent to exercise
the local transit levy option for taxes payable in 1998.

payable in 1998 as permitted by Local Levy Option Act and as certified by the State Commissioner

Staff Report
Villas at Mitchell Lake
May 23, 1997
BACKGROUND:
The site is currently guided low density residential for up to 2.5 units per acre. The site is
currently zoned R1-22.
SITE PLAN
The site plan shows the subdivision of 9.64 acres into 24 lots at a density of 2.49 units per acre.
The R1-9.5 zoning district is proposed.
To approve the plan as proposed the Planning Commission must determine if the plan meets the
purpose of a planned unit development as defined by City code.
The purpose of a planned unit development is to encourage a more creative and efficient approach
to the use of land,to allow variety in the types of development available, encourage a more
efficient allocation and maintenance of common open space through density transfer, and provide
for greater flexibility and creativity in environmental design than is possible under the strict
application of the city code, while preserving the health, safety, order, convenience, prosperity
and general welfare of the City.
This suggests a balance between the benefits of the development versus the impacts of the
development on the site and the surrounding neighborhood.
The benefits to the plan are:
1. The 18%tree loss is less than the 30% average tree loss for residential projects.
2. The project meets shore land ordinance requirements. This creates a 150 feet wooded
buffer zone between the homes and the lake.
3. The site preserves recommended areas of historical and cultural significance.
The impacts of the plan are:
1. The project will have a visual impact on the lake. This is mitigated by the preservation of
existing trees in a 150 conservation zone along the entire edge of the lake.
2. The project will increase boat usage of the lake and add two docks. The staff
recommends one dock with 12 slips. This reduces the impact on the lake.
2
Staff Report
Villas at Mitchell Lake
May 23, 1997
3. The plan can impact the water quality of the lake. This is mitigated by providing the
required storm water treatment pond which removes dirt, debris and pollutants before
draining into the lake.
4. The plan will increase traffic on Terry Pine Drive. The approved Transportation Plan for
the City estimated traffic based on 2.5 units per acre,or a total of 250 daily trips. The
memo from Alan Gray, City Engineer, indicates that the traffic from the project would be
200 daily trips and that Terry Pine Drive is built to accomodate this traffic.
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT WAIVERS
The project requires the following waivers in the R1-9.5 zoning district.
1. Lot size less than 9,500 square feet.
2. Lot width less than 70 feet
The Planning Commission must determine if the granting of the waivers results in a better
environmental design than if no waivers were granting.
Reasons to consider the waivers are as follows:
1. The 18%tree loss is less than the 30% average tree loss for residential projects.
2. The project meets shore land ordinance requirements. This creates a 150 feet wooded
buffer zone between the units and the lake.
3. The site preserves recommended areas of historical and cultural significance.
4. The plan provides a housing type needed in the community.
4. The equivalent land area per unit is 16,462 square feet. This is greater than the minimum
lot size of 9,500 square feet for the proposed zoning district.
SHORE LAND ORDINANCE:
Since the units are located 150 feet away from the lake, the shore land ordinance lot sizes do not
apply.

Staff Report
Villas at Mitchell Lake
May 23, 1997
HISTORIC SITES:
The attached memo from Christina Harrison indicates there are three areas of historic and
cultural significance. The Heritage Preservation Commission recommends that sites 1 and 2 be
preserved. These areas are located within a proposed conservation easement to the City.
GRADING AND TREE LOSS:
There are 2,624 caliper inches of significant trees on the property. The majority of the trees are
oak. The site contains many specimen trees, most of which are protected by the proposed
conservation easement along the lake. Tree loss is calculated at 18% or 461 inches. This
compares to the average tree loss of 30% for residential projects. The required tree replacement
is 110 diameter inches.
ARCHITECTURE:
The buildings meet the architectural diversity policy in the R1-9.5 zoning district for no two units
alike, side by side, opposite, or diagonal across from each other. Four different building
elevations are proposed.
LANDSCAPING:
The amount of landscaping required is based on a tree replacement plan for 110 inches. The
landscaping plan meets this requirement.
UTILITIES AND DRAINAGE:
Water is available in Terry Pine Drive. Sewer is located 1300 feet to the east of this site. The
developer proposes to pay for the cost of extending the sewer to the site. A NURP pond is
shown on the plan.
BOAT DOCKS:
The City Code allows one dock up to 75 feet in length and a maximum area of 450 square feet for
each abutting lot. The common outlot, to be owned by the association, is an abutting lot. The
plan should be revised to eliminate one of the docks shown on the plan.

- MEMORANDUM -
TO: Mike Franzen, Senior Planner
FROM: Alan D. Gray, City Engineer
DATE: May 16, 1997
SUBJECT: Terrey Pine Traffic
The Planning Commission will be reviewing the proposed Villas of Mitchell Lake project which
consists of 24 townhomes, located north of Mitchell Lake and taking access to the west end of
Terrey Pine Drive. Current residents along Terrey Pine Drive have voiced traffic concerns.
The current traffic on Terrey Pine Drive and anticipated impact by construction of the Villas of
Mitchell Lake may be summarized as follows:
1. Traffic counters were placed on Terrey Pine Drive west of Terrey Pine Court the
week of May 15, 1997. Current traffic appears to average approximately 650
vehicles per day. There is a slightly higher eastbound volume than westbound.
2. The proposed Villas of Mitchell Lake are anticipated to generate approximately
200 trips per day. Since this project accesses Terrey Pine Drive at the west end
very near its intersection with TH 5, we expect that trips will be split somewhat
evenly between TH 5 and Terrey Pine Drive. The Villas of Mitchell Lake
project should add approximately 100-120 trips per day, raising the average
traffic volume on Terrey Pine Drive to 750-780 vehicles per day.
3. It is currently difficult to make left turns onto CSAH 4 from Terrey Pine Drive.
A signal will be added to this intersection with improvements to CSAH 4, which
are scheduled to be bid by Hennepin County later this summer.
With the construction of the Villas of Mitchell Lake and other additions to underdeveloped
properties along Terrey Pine Drive, traffic volumes at the easterly and of the residential
neighborhoods should remain below 1,000 vehicles per day. This is lower than many other
residential streets in Eden Prairie, such as Village Woods Drive, Hames Way, or Evener Way.
The addition of a signal at Terrey Pine Drive and CSAH 4 should result in safer and more
convenient access from the neighborhood.

VIE. NEW BUSINESS
A. Eames Archeology Site Preliminary Report
Jack Brandt was present regarding the proposed "Villas at Mitchell Lake"
development. Gertz commented that when they started reviewing the site they had
only identified one historic site and now they have found two more sites on the
property. They are concerned about sites one and two, which are historically
important, but site three has been so impacted that it no longer has any historical
significance. Site one has potential for consideration for the National Historic
Register and site two could be preserved for historical significance. Sites one and two
are within the protected area surrounding the lake.
Brandt stated they have revised the site plan and the pond is now gone. They have
separated the building development from the site itself. They have a full report which
has been submitted to their attorneys Larkin Hoffman, Daly & Lindgren, which will
be submitted to Mike Franzen in the Planning Department tomorrow. Case asked
about the existing house on the site and Brandt responded that it would be removed
if the development proceeds. They have modified the plans to preserve trees and
there are many improvements to the project. It is going to be a single family
development with a Homeowner's Association which provides maintenance services.
Gertz asked if something could be included that there area tectural features of
significance on the site and Brandt responded they could include that verbiage in the
Homeowner's Association documents which would alert future homeowners that the
sites exist. If it turns out that the pond is still shown on the plans they will make it so
the historic site is not impacted. Hession noted that the pond was located within the
150' setback area, and she requested that Christina Harrison be present during site
grading to ensure that the historic site is not disturbed or impacted, and that the site
be flagged to prevent this.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Wilson, that the Heritage Preservation
Commission would like to follow the recommendations of Christina Harrison,
Archeological Research Services, for the"Villas at Mitchell Lake" development with
_respect to Eames Sites 1, 2, and 3, and should the pond development occur, Eames
Site 2 will be flagged to prevent disturbance. Motion carried 6-0.
Gertz stated that Harrison would monitor the site anyway and if the pond is
constructed she would be there to both flag it and monitor it to ensure it is not
impacted by the construction. Hession stressed that it was most important that the
site be preserved in its present condition.

Memorandum
To: Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
Through: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources
From: Stuart A. Fox, vlanager of Parks and Natural Resources
Date: May 28, 1997
Subject: Supplemental Staff Report to the May 23, 1997 Planning Staff Report for
Villas at Mitchell Lake
BACKGROUND:
This site is located on the north end of Mitchell Lake and is 9.64 acres in size. It is currently guided
for low density residential and the development proposed is for R1-9.5.
NATURAL RESOURCE ISSUES:
Tree Loss/Replacement
The staff has reviewed the proposed grading plan and has calculated that out of the 122 significant
trees on the site totaling 2,624 diameter inches that with development the tree loss would be 32 trees
at 461 diameter inches, or a tree loss of 18%.
Originally, when the development was submitted the proposal was made to relocate a number of
conifer species on the site; however, the staff has recommended that this not be done because of the
following factors:
• Trees are planted very close together limiting the amount of foliage due to crowding.
• The diameter of the trees proposed for removal is greater than spade technology.
• The ratio of the diameter to the height of the trees is in excess of what is allowed within the
ordinance.
The trees that would be removed from the site must be mitigated by city ordinance requirements and
this would require the planting of 110 caliper inches of trees. The developer has expressed an
interest in putting trees of a similar species back into the site; however, at the time of this staff report
a complete landscape plan was not available.
A significant amount of the large mature trees,will not be impacted by the construction of these
housing units due to the shoreland setback required from Mitchell Lake.

NURP Pond
A NURP pond is scheduled to be constructed to handle storm water runoff prior to entry into
Mitchell Lake. A complete review of the sizing and discharge levels is being undertaken by the
engineering staff.
The developer will be required to complete the NURP pond as per City engineering and Watershed
District engineer recommendations, as well as taking proper precautions to prevent erosion during
the grading process from entering Mitchell Lake.
Sidewalks/Trails
The City currently does not have any sidewalks or trails in the vicinity of this project and, therefore,
would not require any to be completed concurrent with construction. The developer is proposing
an internal sidewalk/trail system that would be maintained by the owner's association and be used
exclusively for people living in this subdivision. It would allow them access to the shoreline, as
well as the common grounds area of the development.
SHORELINE ORDINANCE:
All the proposed units are located 150' away from the ordinary high water mark of the lake. The
area between the housing units and lakeshore is proposed to be operated as common ground by an
association. Since the area has already been used as a lawn area by the former resident of this
property,the staff feels that a common ground can be maintained in a manner similar as to what has
already occurred.
RECOMMENDATION:
This project was reviewed by the Planning Commission at its May 27, 1997 meeting and was
approved on a 5-0 vote. The staff recommends that this project be approved by the Parks,
Recreation and Natural Resources Commission as per the staff recommendations of the May 23,
1997-memo by the planning staff, as well as the supplemental information enclosed in this memo.

allowed because this was a national tournament that might occur once every
five or ten years. This was also granted subject to the Softball Association
writing letters to all surrounding property owners, visiting with them and
offering them free access to the tournament. The lights never did need to be
extended beyond 10:00 p.m. A vast majority of the people in the athletic
associations do not understand how strong those people feel about those
lights.
Wilson asked if the games would just continue the next morning if there is
a delay. Rick Baredziak, Tournament Director, replied normally they would
just suspend a game at a time where it was appropriate. It if were 3/4 of a
game,they would constitute it a full game. They do not continue playing the
next day. He noted they have shortened their games from the normal 45
minute half to 40 minute half to accommodate any potential extension
beyond the 10:00 time. The last game would begin at 8:00 p.m. so under
normal circumstances they would be finished at 9:30 p.m. The only reason
for the request is simply for the safety issue.
Lambert noted the parking lot lights are on until midnight so it does not go
completely dark at 10:00 p.m.
After a brief discussion, the Commission decided the City made a
commitment to the residents and they should stick by it. As a result, the
Commission was not able to support this request.
MOTION: Wilson moved, seconded by Koenig, to support staffs
recommendation to deny the request to extend past 10:00 p.m. for lights at
Miller Park. Motion carried 6-0.
V. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS
A. Villas at Mitchell Lake
Staff referred the Commission to a memo dated May 28, 1997 from Stuart
A. Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources; a staff report dated May
23, 1997 from Michael D. Franzen, City Planner; and a memo dated May 16,
1997 from Alan Gray, City Engineer.
Jack Brandt, representing Hartford Capital Corporation, reviewed the
development proposal with the Commission. He explained the different

concepts possible for this site and noted the concept chosen is the most viable
and sensitive to the site. Christina Harrison from the Historic Preservation
Commission has indicated there are three areas of historic and cultural
significance. They recommended that sites 1 and 2 be preserved and these
areas are located within a proposed conservation easement to the City.
The proposal is for 24 single family homes which comes to 2.4 units per
acre. The price range of the homes are between$200,000 to $400,000. They
are geared toward empty-nesters. The homes have a finished total of 3000
square feet. This development will be governed by an association that will
take care of the common areas. Al Gray conducted a traffic study and the
trip generation for empty-nester type of units is about half of what it would
be with normal single family units. It also concluded that Terrey Pine Drive
was sufficient in size and design to cover the additional developments that
will take place on this project as well as some in the future.
There are four different elevations which create some diversity in the
development itself. They have asked the City to allow them to work with
customers and create an even more diversity with minor modifications and
the City was in favor of this. There have been many neighborhood meetings
and the closest neighbor, Mr. Fristed, has expressed his support for the
development. They will provide Mr. Fristed with some additional visual
buffering in the form of trees and privacy fencing.
Fox reviewed the staff report. There are 122 trees on this site that were
significant in size as defined by City ordinance. The calculated loss would
be 32 of those trees at 461 diameter inches, for a tree loss of 18 percent.
Originally, when the development was submitted the proposal was made to
relocate a number of conifer species on the site. He explained the reasons
why staff has recommended this not be done.
In terms of replacement, the trees that would be removed from the site must
be mitigated by City ordinance requirements and this would require the
planting of 110 caliper inches of trees. The developer has expressed an
interest in putting trees of a similar species back into the site;however, at the
time of this staff report a complete landscape plan was not available. The
landscape plan is being worked on and would be present at the City Council
or by the time of the Developers' Agreement. A significant amount of the
large mature trees will not be impacted by the construction of these housing
units due to the shoreland setback required from Mitchell Lake.

A NURP pond is scheduled to be constructed to handle storm water runoff
prior to entry into Mitchell Lake. A complete review of the sizing and
discharge levels is being undertaken by the engineering staff. The developer
will be required to complete the NURP pond as per City engineering and
Watershed District engineer recommendations, as well as taking proper
precautions to prevent erosion during the grading process from entering
Mitchell Lake.
The City does not have a sidewalk or trail along Terrey Pine Drive. The
developer is proposing an internal sidewalk/trail system that would be
maintained by the owners' association and be used exclusively for people
living in this subdivision. All the proposed units are located 150 feet away
from the ordinary high water mark of the lake so there would not be any
variance requests. The area between the housing units and lakeshore is
proposed to be operated as common ground by an association.
This project was reviewed by the Planning Commission at the May 27
meeting and was approved on a 5-0 vote.
Hilgeman was concerned about the high density in an environmentally
sensitive area.
Koenig was concerned about replacing trees with like trees. Brandt said they
would agree to like trees going back in. Koenig asked if the trees that can
not be transplanted are included in the tree loss. Perry Ryan, Ryan
Engineering, said they are included in the tree loss.
Koenig was concerned about someone clearing some of the vegetation in the
conservation area for a better view. Fox said there is a provision in the
Shoreland Ordinance that they can do minimal clearing of vegetation in order
to see a water body. They can't clear cut it. If they want to take out more
than 10 percent for the vegetation, they have to come back for permission to
do that under the City ordinance. Lambert commented that nobody is going
to pay$400,000 and clear cut it because it will take away from the value of
their home. Things will be kept as they are just to retain the value of those
homes.
Koenig asked if there would be anymore collection into those NURP ponds
from anywhere else other than this development. Fox said no.

IV. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. VILLAS AT MITCHELL LAKE by Hartford Capital Corporation. Request for
PUD Concept Review on 9.64 acres, PUD District Review on 9.64 acres, Zoning
District Change from Rural to R1-9.5 on 9.64 acres, and Preliminary Plat of 9.64
acres into 24 lots. Location: Terrey Pine Drive.
Bill Griffith, with Larkin Hoffman, reviewed the concept development plan with the
Commission including the grading and landscaping plan. This development provides
life cycle free housing for the community which will target pre-retirement and
retirement age. Life cycle housing has grown in demand in recent years because of
the demographics of the population. This project is unique in the single family home
design. The site clusters the development and it's an opportunity to preserve the
natural features of the existing woods. This development also provides a positive
impact on the lake.
The homes are called villas because they're on one level and are walkout style or
lookout style. All the units will be constructed with an attached double garage and
the units will be completed with stucco exterior and brick finishes. The cost of the
units will be between $275,000 and $400,000. There will be a homeowners
association similar to the concept of townhomes. The density is 2.4 units per acre.
He explained why this is a positive development in terms of the regional benefits and
how it fits in with the Comprehensive Guide Plan. A large single family development
would have much greater impact on the site with two-story homes and larger
footprints than the homes proposed. It's also likely a lot of the large trees would be
lost with larger footprints and larger lot sizes. Traffic and the trip generation is lower
because it's retirement age residents. The trip generation is 50 percent less as a result
of this market. The developer has proposed to pay for the cost of extending the
sewer to the site.
He reviewed the site plan revisions suggested by staff. A number of building locations
along the easterly property line have been set back 30 feet to meet City code. In
working with Mr. Fristed, a neighbor,they have agreed to a privacy fence and a berm
with several trees planted at that location, with a fence to the lakeshore to provide a
clear separation between this project and his home. They would try to keep the fence
out of the 75 foot setback area,but if staff and the City are willing,they would bring
the fence down to the waterfront. They would like flexibility to custom design the
homes and be able to come back to the City for minor modifications. He referred to
2
Eden Prairie Planning Commission
May 27, 1997
letters of several residents who are in concurrence with the project.
Foote asked if the minor modifications still would include two level homes. Griffith
said the minor modifications would be more exterior treatments of the building, the
color,the design, and materials. The homes would remain one level.
Foote asked if there will be one or two docks. Griffith said they would like two docks
with 24 slips,but staff has suggested one dock with 12 slips. They understand staffs
reasons for less dockage area but they have reduced what would be on the lakeshore
if these were large single family homes.
Clinton was concerned about the berm and the fencing and asked what the height is
of the berm. Perry Ryan, Ryan Construction, referred to the grading plan and noted
the existing berm along Highway 5 is at an approximate elevation of 904 and coming
up at a 4:1 slope. They would continue that berming up just right north to the cul-de-
sac to an elevation of 908 and increase that berm in that small area.
Clinton asked if the developer has considered keeping the plan with single family
living down to the lake but meeting the City Code in terms of the lot sizes. Griffith
said the developer looked at a number of alternatives and for a number of reasons
went with this type of project.
Alexander commented that empty-nesters want to get away from maintaining a home
and some are of an age that probably don't want to deal with boats. She supported
one dock with 12 slips. She also supported the privacy fence stopping at 75 feet. She
was concerned about personal watercrafts and asked if there will be some control
over the types of watercrafts used. Griffith explained the project will have restrictive
covenants. Typically the users of the small personal watercrafts tend to be younger
less responsible in the use of watercrafts. They do not expect to see that here. They
can include restrictions of types of watercrafts in the covenants and consider that part
of the development.
Franzen reviewed the staff report and gave background information about the small
lot concept for clustering single family homes and provided examples of this plan in
Eden Prairie. He explained the rationale for small lot housing and the purpose of a
planned unit development. He reviewed the four impacts of the plan which staff felt
were minor because there was mitigation. Staff believes the waivers for this project
are justified by the benefits with four of them listed in the staff report. Staff
recommended approval.
Foote asked what the side area setback is on these units. Ryan replied 10 feet
3
2(4
Eden Prairie Planning Commission
May 27, 1997
between the units and five feet on each side.
Clinton asked what the distribution of traffic would in the afternoon because you can't
make a left turn on Terrey Pine. Al Gray, City Engineer, said he would presume that
outbound traffic from this development would use Highway 5 so it would be 80
percent of the trips that leave this development. Regarding inbound, he would
presume most people who live here would be approaching from the east and west
direction because the median is closed. He noted most of the people who will live
here are probably not tied to an eight to five job and can use the roads other than rush
hour times.
The public hearing was opened.
Glenn Fristed, 17247 Terrey Pine Drive, commented he is most directly impacted to
this site. He would like to add a fence to extend approximately 30 to 40 feet of the
high water line.
Clinton asked who enforces the limitations on the size of the boats. Franzen said that
is a City ordinance limited to 10 horsepower. Al Gray said it would be enforced by
the police. He explained how they enforce it and noted generally the residents help
patrol it. Clinton said as a resident of Staring Lake he sees jet skis out and in the
winter he sees snowmobiles and noted it is posted. He asked how to enforce that if
it is a law. Gray said calls to the police and they would send somebody down there.
Foote was concerned about the type of potential future development along Terrey
Pine because there is still empty land there. He asked what kind of housing would
that yield in the future to distribute to the traffic problem. Franzen said all the land
remaining on the north side of the lake is guided up to 2.5 units per acre so the person
who has one house can subdivide and have additional units. Franzen said he presumes
there's going to be another 15 or 20 units.
Habicht commented the proposal is a little more dense than he liked but given the
tradeoff with the large conservation area,and the fact these are single story units and
no disruption to the shoreline area, it's a good project. The reservation he had was
the fencing and recommended to stop at the 75 foot area because he was concerned
about setting a precedent. He was in favor of staffs recommendation of one dock
with 12 slips. He supported the plan with those recommendations.
Foote said he thought the project was a little too dense the first time he looked at it.
He would lice to see the homes a little further apart than 10 feet. It's a good project
and it's better than having a traditional single family housing project. He supported
4

Eden Prairie Planning Commission
May 27, 1997
the project with the fencing stopping at 75 feet and one dock with 12 slips.
Wissner was comfortable with the project. She commented from her own experience
living in a townhome development of 24 units that there isn't a high traffic area of
people coming and going as when there are small children. She supported the project
with one dock and 12 slips.
Alexander supported the project with the fencing stopping at 75 feet and one dock
with 12 slips.
Clinton also supported the project with the fencing stopping at 75 feet. He was still
concerned about the traffic on Terrey Pine Drive because inbound is still going to be
a problem. It's the only way into the project coming from the east. He also
recommended one dock with 12 slips.
MOTION 1: Wissner moved, seconded by Habicht, to close the public hearing.
Motion carried 5-0.
MOTION 2: Wissner moved, seconded by Habicht, to recommend to the City
Council approval of the request of Hartford Capital Corporation for PUD Concept

Dear Mr. Brandt:
After two neighborhood meetings with you and your attorney and planner,I am confr
that the Villas on Miitchen Lake will be a successful project and may even contribute
greatly to our community.As long as you and your builder will stay to the promised p
of remaining 150 feet back from the lalceshore with the development,install a"group"
boat slip rather than 24 different boat docks and market the homes to an"empty nester"
type of consumer, I am confident that your project will be succesfut with little or no
negative impact on the immediate neighborhood.
My only concern may be with amount of traffic on Terrey Pine Drive to the east of your
project. However,there already are numerous cars during morning rush hours using
Terrey Pine to bypass the intersection of Eden Prairie Road and Highway 5. In a perfect
world, the best idea would be to put in a three-way semaphore at Highway 5 and Terrey
Pine Dr. so the residents of your project could access westbound Highway 5 much easier.
That stretch of Highway 5 between Eden Prairie Road and Dell Road can, at times,
become quite dangerous with speeds exceeding the speed limit. Mother intersection at
Terrey Pine could perhaps avoid high speed traffic. This,I know,is something you can't
deal with but perhaps the City and MnDOT could.
I am impressed with your willingness to address the concerns of the neighborhood and it
seems as though you are spending the time and the money to make sure a quality project is
constructed. In talking with the homeowner immediately next to your property, Glen
Fristed, you are willing to build a privacy fence next to his property and he has told me ht
is in support of your work.If he is pleased,then I see no reason for Villas on Mitchell
Lake to be approved.

Thank you for openess in dealing with the neighbors and I wish you the best as the project
continues.

SUBJECT: Villas at Mitchell Lake
Preliminary Plat Review P97-047
South of Trunk Highway(TH) 5, West of CSAH 4
Eden Prairie, Hennepin County
C.S. 2701
The Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) has reviewed the Villas at Mitchell Lake
preliminary plat in compliance with Minnesota Statute 505.03, subd. 2, Plats. We apologize in the
delay in responding to this submittal. We find the plat acceptable for further development with
consideration of the following comments.
• We will not allow any grading or landscaping within Mn/DOT right of way as proposed in
the Preliminary Grading Plan. Mn/DOT provided the current landscaping in TH 5 right of
way. The City of Eden Prairie requested this landscaping as mitigation for trees that
Mn/DOT removed when Mn/DOT reconstructed TH 5.
• Although not proposed, we will allow no new access to TH 5. Site access will be by CSAH
4 and the current right/in-right/out access at Terrey Pine Drive. This meets the City of Eden
Prairie's position detailed in Gene Dietz's April 16, 1992 letter to us.
We require an access permit for the site for access to Terrey Pine Drive. The city must file
the permit if the new street within the development is to be a city street. However, the
developer may apply with a letter of support from the city. For additional information and
the appropriate forms please contact Bill Warden of our Permits Section at 582-1443.
• Any use of or work within Mn/DOT right of way will require an approved Mn/DOT permit.
This includes utility and right of way alteration permits. Any additional permits required
depend upon the nature of the proposed work. Bill Warden of our Permits Section may be
contacted for further information regarding the permit process.

• It is Mn/DOT's policy to assist local governments in promoting compatibility between
land use and highways. Residential land uses adjacent to highways usually results in
complaints about traffic noise. Traffic noise from TH 5 could exceed noise standards
established by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, the U.S. Dept. of Transportation,
and the U.S. Dept. of Housing and Urban Development.
Mn/DOT policy regarding development adjacent to existing and acquired highways
prohibits the expenditure of highway funds for noise mitigation measures. The project
proposer should assess the noise situation and take the action deemed necessary to
minimize the impact of any highway noise.
However, as previously noted, any noise mitigation measures such as construction of
berms and installation of landscape screening must occur on-site. We will not allow these
activities within Mn/DOT right of way.
Please contact me at 582-1654 with any questions regarding this review.

My only concern may be with amount of traffic on Terrey Pine Drive to the east of your

constructed. In talking with the homeowner immediately next to your property, Glen
Fristed, you are willing to build a privacy fence next to his property and he has told me he
is in support of your work. If he is pleased, then I see no reason for Villas on Mitchell
Lake to be approved.
Thank you for openess in dealing with the neighbors and I wish you the best as the project
continues.

EDEN PRAIRIE CITY COUNCIL AGENDA DATE: 6-17-97
SECTION: PUBLIC HEARINGS
ITEM NO. v. a
DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION:
Community Development
Chris Enger CAR-X MUFFLER& BRAKE
Scott A. Kipp
Requested Council Action:
The Staff recommends that the Council take the following action:
1. Close the Public Hearing;
2. Approve 1st Reading of the Ordinance for Zoning District Change from Rural to C-Reg-Ser on 0.56
acres;
3. Direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating Commission and Staff
recommendations (and Council conditions).
Background:
The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the project at its May 27, 1997 meeting.
The proposal is consistent with the design philosophy used for other car care projects such as Jiffy Lube,
LaMettry Auto Body, Lariat Center, and Tires Plus(withdrawn), where a combination of building jogs,
recessed service doors, and metal canopy designs provide architectural compatibility and minimize views to
the service doors.
Supporting Reports:
1. Staff Report dated 5-23-97
2. Planning Commission Minutes dated May 27, 1997
STAFF REPORT
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Scott A. Kipp, Senior Planner
THROUGH: Michael D. Franzen, City Planner
DATE: May 23, 1997
SUBJECT: Car-X Muffler and Brake
APPLICANT: Brian Cook
FEE OWNER: Robert Larsen
LOCATION: 8108 Eden Road
REQUEST: 1. Zoning District Change from Rural to Commercial Regional
Service on 0.56 acres.
2. Site Plan Review on 0.56 acres.

Staff Report
Car-X Muffler and Brake
May 23, 1997
BACKGROUND
The Comprehensive Guide Plan shows this site and surrounding property as Regional Commercial
land use. The property is zoned Rural.
SITE PLAN
The proposal is to construct a 5,578 sq. ft., six bay Car-X Muffler and Brake shop on 0.56 acres.
The base area ratio is 0.19, and the floor area ratio is 0.23. The Commercial Regional Service
zoning district permits up to a 0.20 base area ratio and a 0.40 floor area ratio. Total parking
required for this use is 16 spaces. The plan shows 17 spaces plus 6 spaces within the service bays
for a total of 23 spaces.
The building and parking meet all setbacks.
Platting of the property is not required. The site is Tract C of RLS 687, which provides the
necessary right of way for Eden Road.
GRADING AND DRAINAGE
The tree inventory shows six significant trees on site totaling 62 caliper inches. Twelve caliper
inches,or 19% will be removed due to grading. Tree replacement is 3 caliper inches. This has
been included in the landscaping plan.
No NURP pond is proposed with this project. The size of the lot limits the ability to provide an
on-site pond. The proponent requests that the City accept a financial equivalent to the
construction costs of an on-site NURP pond to the City's Storm Water Utility in lieu of
constructing the ponding. These funds go toward construction of regional ponds for treatment of
storm water.
UTILITIES
Sewer and water service is available in Eden Road.
Any existing well will need to be capped, and septic system abandoned.
LANDSCAPING
Landscaping for this project is based on a caliper inch requirement according to building size (17
caliper inches), and screening of the parking areas and service doors. Berming and shrubs
2
Staff Report
Car-X Muffler and Brake
May 23, 1997
plantings are proposed along Eden Road, together with a row of evergreen trees along the north
property line to screen the views to the parking and service doors. An existing 6 foot wood fence
provides screening to the west.
Irrigation of the landscaping is proposed.
ARCHITECTURE
The proposed architecture is consistent with the design philosophy used for other car care
projects such as Jiffy Lube, LaMettry Auto Body, Lariat Center, and Tires Plus(withdrawn),
where a combination of building jogs, recessed service doors, and metal canopy designs provide
architectural compatibility and minimize views to the service doors.
The majority of the building is 19 feet tall,with a portion at 24 feet tall. City Code permits
building height up to 40 feet in the Commercial Regional Service zoning district. The building
will be face brick and glass which meets City Code. A face brick trash enclosure is proposed on
the west end of the site.
All mechanical equipment will be located in the building.
Twenty foot downcast lighting fixtures are proposed.
SIGNS
City Code permits wall signs and a free standing pylon sign. The proposed signs meet City Code.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff would recommend approval of the Zoning District Change from Rural to Commercial
Regional Service on 0.56 acres, Site Plan Review on 0.56 acres, based on plans dated May 8,
1997, this staff report, and the following:
1. Prior to grading permit issuance, the proponent shall:
A. Submit detailed storm water runoff, utility, and erosion control plans for review
and approval by the City Engineer and Watershed District.
B. Stake the grading limits with erosion control fence.
C. Notify the City and Watershed District 48 hours in advance of grading.

May 23, 1997
2. Prior to building permit issuance, the proponent shall:
A. Provide a landscape surety equivalent to 150% of the cost of the landscaping
improvements.
B. Submit detailed building plans to the Inspections Department and Fire Marshal
for their review and approval.
C. Submit exterior building material samples and colors for review.
D. Provide a financial equivalent to the costs of an on-site NURP pond to the City's
Storm Water Utility in lieu of constructing on-site NURP ponding.

May 27, 1997
B. CAR-X MUFFLER & BRAKE by Brian Cook. Request for Zoning District
Change from Rural to C-Reg-Ser on 0.56 acres and Site Plan Review on 0.56 acres.
Location: 8108 Eden Road.
Ken Nordby, architect,presented the proposed elevation of the Car-X building which
will be next to the Jiffy Lube site. The building is approximately 4600 square feet
with six service bays. Construction will be brick and they have added some color
block for some accent colors, and a prefinished canopy. The building will have
recessed service doors which is similar to Jiffy Lube next door. They worked
together with staff for the landscaping and are trying to preserve as much of the
existing trees that are on the site. They have talked with Jeff Johnson about trying to
create a NURP pond. Mr. Cook has requested that the City accept a financial
equivalent to the construction costs of an on-site NURP pond to the City's Storm
Water Utility in lieu of constructing the ponding. These funds go toward construction
of regional ponds for treatment of storm water.
Wissner asked if they would work together with Jiffy Lube by bringing the cars to
each other. Brian Cook, owner, said normally they do not but they would trade
coupons. They are separate businesses.
Clinton asked how Car-X compares to Jiffy Lube in size. Kipp replied Car-X is
slightly larger.
Foote asked if this is a typical size to other Car-X shops. Nordby said most of the
Car-X shops they have worked on are going to eight bay areas rather than six.
Lind asked what the distance is from this building to Jiffy Lube. Nordby said
approximately 125 feet.
Alexander was concerned about whether there would be sufficient parking for the cars
waiting to be served and the employees. Nordby said yes. The cars that are waiting
to be served would actually be across and adjacent to the property line of Jiffy Lube.
There is also some parking up against the west side of the lot.
Kipp reviewed the staff report and noted that the proposal is consistent with the
design philosophy used for other car care projects. The use of building jogs,recessed
service doors, and metal canopy designs provide architectural compatibility and
minimizes views to the service doors. The staff recommended approval.
The public hearing was opened.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA Date: June 17, 1997
Section: Appointments
Department: PRNR Item Description: Establish a Working Group to Item No.:
Laurie Helling,Manager of Investigate and Recommend Community Uses at the
Recreation Services d Eden Prairie Center and Appointment of Members
Through: Bob Lambert, x A
Director of Parks,
Recreation&Natural
Resources; Chris Enger,
Assistant City Manager
REQUEST:
Staff requests that the City Council establish a Working Group, which will serve as a community
liaison with General Growth to determine how to best utilize the space at the Eden Prairie Center that
General Growth is proposing to provide for community use. The Working Group would report
directly to the City Council.
RECOMMENDED MEMBERS:
Staff recommends that the following individuals be appointed to the Working Group:
Association/Affiliation Group Representative
City Council At the June 17, 1997 City Council meeting, a
representative should be appointed to serve on
the Working Group.
Arts Commission Deb Campbell Potter, Chairperson
Heritage Preservation Commission Jane Hession, Chairperson
Historical Society Marie Wittenberg, Chairperson
Arts Task Force At the June 17, 1997 Arts Commission
meeting, the Commission will recommend a
representative from the Arts Task Force to
serve on the Working Group.
BACKGROUND:
On August 6, 1996 the topic of an Art Center was discussed at the Joint City Council/Arts
Commission meeting,due to the recent action by the Staring Arts Board to dissolve the Staring Arts
Center, Inc. non-profit organization effective September 30, 1996. During this meeting, the Arts
1
Commission expressed that they still support the concept of an Arts Center in Eden Prairie. The City
Council said they would like to have the concept continue to be developed. The Arts Commission
accepted the charge by the City Council, and agreed to form an Arts Task Force in the next six to
nine months,
On April 14, 1997, the Eden Prairie Arts Commission hosted a Center for the Arts informational
meeting. Thirteen individuals attended this first Arts Task Force meeting at the City Center, which
was facilitated by Deb Campbell Potter,the Arts Commission Chair. Representatives at the meeting
included: Arts Commission members,past Staring Arts Board members, Arts Advocates and School
District and City Staff.
The group discussed the proposed public use space at the Eden Prairie Shopping Center. This public
space is seen as a resource, as well as an attraction in the community which could provide broad
cultural program opportunities in both art and history.
On May 7, 1997 representatives from the Eden Prairie Heritage Preservation Commission and the
Historical Society were invited to attend the Arts Task Force meeting. The informational meeting
was scheduled to talk with other possible users of the space(5,000 square feet) at the Eden Prairie
Shopping Center to determine similarities in the types of uses and how each group may be able to
contribute to the community space. Three possibilities for use of the space were discussed: 1)arts,
2)history, and 3) a community service center.
Last year,prior to the Staring Arts Board decision to dissolve the Staring Arts Center, Inc.,the City
was considering utilizing space at the Eden Prairie Center for an Arts Center. The Arts Commission
and the Arts Task Force support that effort. However, representatives from General Growth have
expressed to City staff that they would like to see the community space used in a multitude of ways,
drawing mixed people to the Eden Prairie Center for a variation of reasons (arts classes and exhibits,
history displays, community services, etc.). The establishment of a Working Group would broaden
the focus on how to best utilize the space at the Eden Prairie Center for community use.
RULES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
Arts Commission and Arts Task Force
The Eden Prairie Arts Commission was established for the purpose of advising the Council on matters
pertaining to activities,programs, and facilities of artistic significance to the City , and to implement
