Case asked that item IV.B. 1ST READING OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING
ORDINANCE NO.2.32 FOR ISSUANCE OF CITATIONS be removed from the
Consent Calendar and discussed as item XI.C.3.
Regarding item C,Thorfinnson wondered why we are doing a Feasibility Study at this
time since service will not be available until some time in the future. Alan Gray said
Staff has met with the neighborhood and they are aware we might come to the
conclusion that it may be three to four years. Gray said the study will explore
alternate ways to get utilities to the neighborhood. Thorfinnson then asked if this is
totally dependent on MUSA line expansion. Gray said they are within the MUSA
line.
For item F, Thorfinnson asked for clarification of the fees and charges for use of City
Center Meeting Rooms and Community Rooms because it appeared we may be
charging non-profit groups more than non-resident individuals and businesses. Jullie
said the schedule was worked up to recover our direct costs for the civic groups.
Thorfinnson specifically questioned the $35 set-up fee listed only in the Group I
(non-profit) fees. Jullie said they need to research this issue and return with an
explanation. Thorfinnson then asked that item F. RESOLUTION AMENDING

Erik Johnson, representing Kindercare Learning Centers and Tandem Properties,
reviewed the proposal.
Assistant City Manager Enger said the Planning Commission reviewed the proposal
at their January 8, 1996, meeting and recommended approval on a 7-0 vote, subject
to the recommendations of the Staff Report of January 5, 1996. He reviewed the
recommendations contained in the report.
Director of Public Works Dietz said there are some outstanding issues on the site and
suggested the issues of the NURP pond be resolved between 1st and 2nd Readings.
Pidcock expressed concern about locating child care facilities next to gas stations.
She thought there should be some warning given to parents that it is not good for
children to be exposed to the lead in gasoline.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to close the Public Hearing;
to approve the 1st Reading of an Ordinance for Zoning District Change from Rural

Plat approval of 4.83 acres into 2 lots; and to direct Staff to prepare a Development

C. COLUMBINE TOWNHOMES by Cornerstone/Equities LLC. Request for
Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Office to Medium Density Residential on
3.3 acres, PUD Concept Amendment on 15.3 acres„ Zoning District Change from
Rural to RM-6.5 on 3.3 acres, PUD District Review on 3.3 acres, Site Plan Review
on 3.3 acres, and Preliminary Plat of 3.3 acres into one lot, and request of the Council •
and Housing and Redevelopment Authority for approval of a Tax Increment

Guide Plan Change,Resolution 96-28 for PUD Concept Amendment, Ordinance
for Zoning District Change and PUD District Review and Resolution 96-26 for
Preliminary Plat, and Resolution 96-29 for the City Council approving Tax
Increment Financing Plan and Project Plan, and Resolution HRA 96-1 for the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) adopting Tax Increment
Financing Plan and Project Plan)
Mayor Harris announced that this will be a Joint Public Meeting involving both the
City Council and the Housing & Redevelopment Authority (HRA). She then
convened the HRA for this project, stating that we will have the Council hearing and
the required HRA meeting conducted simultaneously.
Jullie said the official notice for this Public Hearing was published on January 25,
1996,in the Eden Prairie News and mailed to 19 property owners within the project
area. The proposed site plan for this project shows 32 multi-family units on 3.3 acres
located along Columbine Road north of the Post Office site. These units would
provide housing with rents affordable for persons with incomes below 60% of the
median income for the metro area. It is proposed that the City would use its Tax
Increment Financing authority,which is essential for the feasibility of this project. All
32 units proposed can be credited toward meeting the City's Livable Communities
affordable rental housing goal of 20 units for 1996.
Colleen Carey of Cornerstone Group gave an overview of the project.
Pidcock asked if the units will provide affordable housing for an extended period of
time. Carey replied they will provide affordable housing for a minimum of 15 years,
and there is an extended use agreement for a total of 30 years.
Dennis Sutliff, representing BRW, reviewed the details of the project.
Tyra-Lukens asked if the handicapped accessible units will have wider doorways.
Sutliff said those units will meet the requirements for handicap units and will meet
5
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA
February 6, 1996
Page 6
ADA requirements. Case then asked if there will be one such unit per building, with
a total of eight in the complex. Sutliff said there can be as many as eight; however,
they plan to build two units with all the accessories, and the other six will be
structurally adaptable.
Pidcock asked about the security of the units. Sutliff said it will be similar to other
townhomes, and will comply with federal and state guidelines that cover the kinds of
hardware and other details.
Thorfinnson questioned the parking that is planned since there will probably be two
or more cars with the three bedroom units. Sutliff said they exceed the zoning
ordinance for parking if the parking available on the street is included.
Enger said the Planning Commission reviewed the project at their December 11, 1995
meeting and voted unanimously to recommend the zoning district change, subject to
the recommendations in the Staff Report of December 8, 1995.
Lambert said the Parks, Recreation&Natural Resources Commission reviewed the
project at their December 18 meeting and recommended approval, per the December
8th Staff Report.
Harris asked when Columbine Road will go through. Dietz said this is one of the TIF
financing projects. They are looking at options to get through the last segment of
property, possibly next year. Harris said she wanted to be sure it is still on the priority
list.
Gary Fields, representing Springsted Financial, gave an overview of the Tax
Increment Financing Plan that is needed for this project in order to make the financing
available. He said a total of$337,500 of assistance will be provided to developers.
Tyra-Lukens asked if we approved the CDBG allocation last spring. Thorfinnson said
we have been setting aside block grant money for this type of thing.
Pidcock questioned whether one of the transit buses would be able to turn around in
the project. Sutliff said he was not sure of the turning radius of the buses, but it can
accommodate a fire truck.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Thorfinnson moved, seconded by Pidcock, to close the Public Hearing.
Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Thorfinnson moved, seconded by Pidcock, that the HRA adopt
Resolution HRA 96-1 adopting the Project Plan for Redevelopment Project Area No.
4 in the City of Eden Prairie and Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment
Financing District No. 12. Motion carried unanimously.

Financing District No. 12 approving the Project Plan and a Tax Increment Financing
Plan therefore; to adopt Resolution 96-27 for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change

unanimously.
VI. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Thorfinnson, to approve the Payment of Claims
as submitted. Motion carried on a roll call vote, with Case, Pidcock, Thorfinnson,
Tyra-Lukens and Harris voting "aye."
VII. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS
A. 1ST READING OF AN ORDINANCE CHANGING STREET NAME OF OLD
COUNTY ROAD 18
Jullie said the Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC) recommends that the
frontage road paralleling County Road 18 be named Hennepin Town Road.
Pidcock asked if research was done on the names of property owners along the road.
She said she thought this item should be continued until the next meeting in order to
get more input before deciding. Harris asked how we should go about getting more
input. Pidcock said we should also get input on the names of native American bands
that existed in this area as well as input from other sources.
Tyra-Lukens thought we have set up a system for the HPC to come up with street
names, and she liked the name Hennepin Town Road.
Case agreed that we have put a system in place to get HPC input for street names and
noted that the HPC considered names of all of the property owners along the road as
well as native American names. He said the name Hennepin Town Road recognizes
the old town of Hennepin that was south of the current Riverview Road.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to approve 1st Reading of the
Ordinance designating the frontage road paralleling County Road 18 from Riverview
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA
February 6, 1996
Page 8
Road to Anderson Lakes Parkway to be named Hennepin Town Road.
Pidcock said she thought it was redundant to have Hennepin as a street name in
Hennepin County. Thorfinnson said we gave the HPC responsibility to put names on
streets; however, the problem here is that we don't have the background that led to
their decision. If the Council had that information, it would be easier to see the
process the HPC used to arrive at their recommendation.
Harris suggested that the information given by Councilmember Case be made
available to the Council in the next packet, and that we ask the HPC to provide such
background information in their next process.
VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried unanimously.
B. 1ST READING OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CITY CODE CHAPTER
2, SECTIONS 2.10. 2.16. 2.21 AND 2.29 RELATING TO BOARDS &
COMMISSIONS
Jullie said the proposed amendments are pursuant to past Council actions relating to
our various boards and commissions. The changes incorporate the new Housing,
Transportation& Social Services Board, and change the term for office of appointees
from March through the last day of February to April 1 through the 31st of March.
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to approve 1st Reading of
an Ordinance amending City Code, Chapter 2, Sections 2.1, 2.6, 2.21 and 2.29.
Motion carried unanimously.
VIII. PETITIONS.REOUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
A. REOUEST FROM TOM MORGAN FOR A MARCH 12. 1996 HEARING
DATE TO APPEAL VARIANCE#95-31
Jullie said Mr. Morgan is appealing the decision of the Board of Adjustments &
Appeals regarding his request for a setback variance. The Board denied the request
on a tie vote. Staff recommends that March 12th be set as the date for a Public
Hearing to review the request for variance.
MOTION: Tyra-Lukens moved, seconded by Pidcock,to set March 12, 1996, as the
date to review Variance Request#95-31. Motion carried unanimously.

A. REPORTS OF COUNCILMEMBERS
1. Report from Southwest Metro Transit
Pidcock reported that the Southwest Metro Transit legislation involving the
"Good News" Bus has been dropped for this year. She thought it was an
educational experience for the legislature to learn how Southwest Metro has
developed their transit system and handled their own finances. She said the
Suburban Transit Association (STA) bill has been passed in the house and
now is going to the Senate. Pidcock will continue to update the Council on
the progress of the STA bill.
2. Request for Update on Status of Art Center Task Force
3. Request for Update on Status of Tree Preservation Task Force
4. Request for Update on Bearpath Trail Access Issue
Case asked Staff to provide updates on these three items at the February 20th
meeting.
5. Possible City Council/School Board Joint Meeting
Case said he has had discussions with staff from the School District regarding
some issues on the High School expansion as well as other issues that we have
in common with the School District. He thought we could benefit from a joint
meeting to discuss issues such as High School student parking, County Road
4, Community Center fees and other items. A joint meeting would also
provide an opportunity to discuss issues with the new superintendent.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Pidcock, to direct Staff to contact
School District officials to set up a Joint Workshop session as soon as
possible. Motion carried unanimously.
Harris asked Councilmembers to give Staff their suggestions for issues to be
covered at the meeting so that they can prepare an agenda.
Pidcock said that Mr. Lambert told Southwest Metro they would have to
move the Park and Ride facility to the south side of Valley View Road. She
said they will not be able to accomplish that by February 12 because it will
take more time to complete the required process of notification about the
change. Lambert said he understood.
6. Tobacco Legislation
Tyra-Lukens said there are strong bills being considered by both House and
9
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA
February 6, 1996
Page 10
Senate this year regarding youth access to tobacco. The House bill has
language that limits a city's ability to make more stringent restrictions. She
suggested that Councilmembers call our representatives to let them know we
would like to have the ability to make a stronger local ordinance than the
House bill provides. She noted that time was of the essence for those calls.
7. Orientation for New Board and Commission Members
Thorfinnson reviewed plans for the orientation of new Board and Commission
members that will occur in March. A pre-Council meeting workshop is
planned for the first meeting in March for Staff liaisons and new members.
There will also be an orientation meeting given by the Staff liaison for each
Board and Commission to provide more specific background on current
activities, meeting procedures and by-laws.
Pidcock asked if all of the members of the Boards and Commissions will be
asked to come in for the Council workshop. Thorfinnson said it is just for
new members and will be a general orientation done in part by the City
Manager and the Mayor and in part by the City Attorney.
8. Workshops
Thorfinnson distributed a list of workshop dates and topics that he worked up
in order to get the workshop calendar established for the year. He thought the
topics could be subject to change, but the dates should remain firm.
Councilmembers discussed the attendance that would be required for the
workshop sessions. Harris said there will be some meetings where it will be
important to have a full Council in attendance, such as the budget meeting or
other sessions at which information is passed that will impact policy decisions.
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to adopt the
proposed schedule,with some flexibility to be allowed regarding the proposed
topics. Motion carried unanimously.
B. REPORT OF CITY MANAGER
1. City Manager Performance Review Process
Harris noted that last September we accepted a report from Councilmembers
Thorfinnson and Tyra-Lukens presenting a revised process for the City
Manager's Performance Review. City Manager Jullie provided information
in the FYI packets as input for the review process. She suggested that the
two Councilmembers who developed the revised process be asked to perform
the review.

MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Case, to appoint Councilmember
Tyra-Lukens and Councilmember Thorfinnson to serve on the Performance
Evaluation team. Motion carried unanimously.
C. REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF PARKS,RECREATION&FACILITIES
1. Letter from Thomas Lindquist regarding Duck Lake
Lambert reviewed the letter of January 7, 1996, from Mr. Lindquist in which
he asked the City's assistance in a snow removal effort on Duck Lake to
improve the dissolved oxygen content of the lake to help prevent winter kill
of the fish population. The issue was reviewed at the Parks Commission
meeting on February 5, 1996, and lengthy discussions were held with the
residents. The Parks Commission voted approval on a 5-1 vote of the
following recommendations to the Council:
1. Authorize Staff to work with the neighborhood and the DNR to
develop a management plan and to pursue the issue of providing
public access to the lake so that the DNR could manage the lake.
2. Authorize Staff to develop a plan to assist neighbors in clearing up
dead fish this spring if there is the severe fish kill that is expected.
He noted that Staff is recommending managing Duck Lake only if the DNR
is part of the partnership, and the DNR will do that only if there is a public
access to the lake. If an arrangement is made, the City would provide the
electricity and maintain the aerator.
Regarding the issue of public access, he said the DNR defines public access
to occur when the general public has the same right to use the lake as the
residents that live there. At this time there are two undeveloped properties on
the lake. One of the two is under development at this time, and we could
request land in lieu of park fees in order to provide the public access. We
would need to notify the developer immediately if that is what we choose to
do. In addition,there is a narrow strip of land on the north shore adjacent to
Duck Lake Trail that provides public access to the lake for pedestrians;
however, it has no parking lot or public boat access to the lake.
Harris asked what the costs will be for the public access and for the ongoing
costs of aeration, and whether neighbors would be willing to participate in the
cost. Lambert said that if there is a public access, the aerator would be free;
however we would have to install and operate it. The operational costs of the
aerator would be relatively low and it would cost $2,000 to create a launch
and parking for two cars.
Harris asked what we are doing about aeration on other lakes. Lambert
�{
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA
February 6, 1996
Page 12
replied that we have aeration on three other lakes--Red Rock Lake,Mitchell
Lake and Round Lake. He said we run the systems in November and
December until the lakes freeze up. He noted that both Red Rock Lake and
Mitchell Lake have portable systems.
Thomas Lindquist, 16750 Baywood Terrace, thanked the Council for hearing
his request and for considering measures that could save the lake in future
years.
Case asked Mr.Lindquist if the neighbors would want to stay with the current
pedestrian access or would want the public access Mr. Lambert described.
Lindquist said the de facto public access exists now; however, they would be
concerned that gasoline-powered boats not be allowed on the lake. Lambert
said that, if we provide the public access, we would have a hearing with the
neighbors there and would recommend there be no motors or electric motors
only.
Tyra-Lukens asked if the City stocks lakes. Lambert said the DNR will stock
if there is a public access. Pidcock then asked if the DNR stocks Red Rock
Lake and Mitchell Lake. Lambert replied that they monitor those lakes and
will stock if it is needed.
Case said he liked the long term solution to get the DNR involved, but he
would like to see the figures on paper as to what we will lose in cash park
fees. Lambert said there are 16 lots at$1200 per unit on the Rogers property.
Thorfinnson was concerned that access from the Rogers property won't be
easy since the development is already in review.
Harris said she was interested in investigating the possibility of land in lieu of
cash park fees;however, she felt it was problematical to ask the developer for
land at this point. Lambert said we could also go to the DNR and negotiate
with our current pedestrian access.
2. Storm Damaged Tree Hauling Policy
Referring to his memo of February 6, 1996, Lambert said Staff would like
some direction from Council regarding the policy of removing trees that were
damaged during the recent ice storm. Staff recommends that a policy be set
that would limit City tree hauling to emergency hauling of those trees that
have fallen across public trails or roadways, plus diseased trees and also other
storm damaged trees whenever the City Council has designated staff to do so
after a severe storm.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to adopt the policy
regarding storm damaged tree hauling, as proposed in the Staff Report of
►a

February 6, 1996
Page 13
February 6, 1996. Motion carried unanimously.
3. First Reading of an Ordinance Amending Ordinance No. 2.32 for
Issuance of Citations
Case said he thought that the issue of giving citations has wider implications
and that it should be reviewed with the School District. Lambert said we are
talking about restrictions from 7:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. when school is in
session only, and City staff discussed this with school staff.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Pidcock,to approve 1st Reading of an
Ordinance amending Ordinance No. 2.32 for Issuance of Citations.
Pidcock noted there is a bill before the legislature that generally bars students
from driving to school except for work related situations. She thought this
issue has an impact on people trying to go to the Community Center.
Motion carried unanimously.

DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: Set sale of General ITEM NO.
Finance Obligation Refunding Bonds for April 2, 1996, IV.B
in the amount of$4,680,000.
Background:
We have set in motion the machinery to take bids to refund two City bond issues. One is for
improvement bonds issued in 1991. The refunding is $2,875,000. The other is for Community
Center bonds issued in 1980 and refinanced in 1989. The amount of this refunding is $1,805,000.
At the end of February it was anticipated that savings in the area of$335,000 would be realized
through a refunding. However, recent changes in the market interest rates now make the amount of
savings uncertain.
We recommend that the City Council adopt the resolutions setting the sale for April 2. We will
withdraw the sale if market conditions are not favorable for receiving bids.
Action/Direction:
Adopt resolutions.

taken by the successful bidder will be increased or reduced by a percentage equal to the percentage

3 - i
BOOK ENTRY SYSTEM
The Bonds will be issued by means of a book entry system with no physical distribution of
Bonds made to the public. The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form and one Bond,
representing the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds maturing in each year, will be
registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"),
New York, New York, which will act as securities depository of the Bonds. Individual purchases
of the Bonds may be made in the principal amount of$5,000 or any multiple thereof of a single
maturity through book entries made on the books and records of DTC and its participants.
Principal and interest are payable by the registrar to DTC or its nominee as registered owner of
the Bonds. Transfer of principal and interest payments to participants of DTC will be the
responsibility of DTC; transfer of principal and interest payments to beneficial owners by
participants will be the responsibility of such participants and other nominees of beneficial
owners. The purchaser, as a condition of delivery of the Bonds, will be required to deposit the
Bonds with DTC.
REGISTRAR
The City will name the registrar which shall be subject to applicable SEC regulations. The City
will pay for the services of the registrar.
OPTIONAL REDEMPTION
The City may elect on February 1, 2005, and on any day thereafter, to prepay Bonds due on or
after February 1, 2006. Redemption may be in whole or in part and if in part at the option of the
City and in such manner as the City shall determine. If less than all Bonds of a maturity are
called for redemption, the City will notify DTC of the particular amount of such maturity to be
prepaid. DTC will determine by lot the amount of each participant's interest in such maturity to
be redeemed and each participant will then select by lot the beneficial ownership interests in
such maturity to be redeemed. All prepayments shall be at a price of par plus accrued interest.
SECURITY AND PURPOSE
The Bonds will be general obligations of the City for which the City will pledge its full faith and
credit and power to levy direct general ad valorem taxes. In addition the City will pledge special
assessments against benefited property. The proceeds will be used to refund in advance of
maturity the 2001 through 2012 maturities of the City's $6,050,000 General Obligation
Improvement Bonds, Series 1991B, dated September 1, 1991.
TYPE OF PROPOSALS
Proposals shall be for not less than $2,843,375 and accrued interest on the total principal
amount of the Bonds. Proposals shall be accompanied by a Good Faith Deposit ("Deposit") in
the form ofa certified or cashier's check or a Financial Surety Bond in the amount of $28,750,
payable to the order of the City. If a check is used, it must accompany each proposal. If a
Financial Surety Bond is used, it must be from an insurance company licensed to issue such a
bond in the State of Minnesota, and preapproved by the City. Such bond must be submitted to
Springsted Incorporated prior to the opening of the proposals. The Financial Surety Bond must
identify each underwriter whose Deposit is guaranteed by such Financial Surety Bond. If the
Bonds are awarded to an underwriter using a Financial Surety Bond, then that purchaser is
required to submit its Deposit to Springsted Incorporated in the form of a certified or cashier's
check or wire transfer as instructed by Springsted Incorporated not later than 3:30 P.M., Central
Time, on the next business day following the award. If such Deposit is not received by that
time, the Financial Surety Bond may be drawn by the City to satisfy the Deposit requirement.
The City will deposit the check of the purchaser, the amount of which will be deducted at
settlement and no interest will accrue to the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to
•
comply with the accepted proposal, said amount will be retained by the City. No proposal can
be withdrawn or amended after the time set for receiving proposals unless the meeting of the
City scheduled for award of the Bonds is adjourned, recessed, or continued to another date
without award of the Bonds having been made. Rates shall be in integral multiples of 5/100 or
1/8 of 1%. Rates must be in ascending order. Bonds of the same maturity shall bear a single
rate from the date of the Bonds to the date of maturity. No conditional proposals will be
accepted.
AWARD
The Bonds will be awarded on the basis of the lowest interest rate to be determined on a true
interest cost (TIC) basis. The City's computation of the interest rate of each proposal, in
accordance with customary practice, will be controlling.
The City will reserve the right to: (i) waive non-substantive informalities of any proposal or of
matters relating to the receipt of proposals and award of the Bonds, (ii) reject all proposals
without cause, and, (iii) reject any proposal which the City determines to have failed to comply
with the terms herein.
BOND INSURANCE AT PURCHASER'S OPTION
If the Bonds qualify for issuance of any policy of municipal bond insurance or commitment
therefor at the option of the underwriter, the purchase of any such insurance policy or the
issuance of any such commitment shall be at the sole option and expense of the purchaser of
the Bonds. Any increased costs of issuance of the Bonds resulting from such purchase of
insurance shall be paid by the purchaser, except that, if the City has requested and received a
rating on the Bonds from a rating agency, the City will pay that rating fee. Any other rating
agency fees shall be the responsibility of the purchaser.
Failure of the municipal bond insurer to issue the policy after Bonds have been awarded to the
purchaser shall not constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery on
the Bonds.
CUSIP NUMBERS
If the Bonds qualify for assignment of CUSIP numbers such numbers will be printed on the
Bonds, but neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bond nor any error with respect
thereto will constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery of the
Bonds. The CUSIP Service Bureau charge for the assignment of CUSIP identification numbers
shall be paid by the purchaser.
SETTLEMENT
Within 40 days following the date of their award, the Bonds will be delivered without cost to the
purchaser at a place mutually satisfactory to the City and the purchaser. Delivery will be
subject to receipt by the purchaser of an approving legal opinion of Dorsey & Whitney P.L.L.P.
of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and of customary closing papers, including a no-litigation certificate.
On the date of settlement payment for the Bonds shall be made in federal, or equivalent, funds
which shall be received at the offices of the City or its designee not later than 12:00 Noon,
Central Time. Except as compliance with the terms of payment for the Bonds shall have been
made impossible by action of the City, or its agents, the purchaser shall be liable to the City for
any loss suffered by the City by reason of the purchaser's non-compliance with said terms for
payment.

Rule 15c2-12, in the Resolution authorizing and ordering issuance of the Bonds the City will

to the Bonds, as that term is defined in Rule 15c2-12. By awarding the Bonds to any
underwriter or underwriting syndicate submitting a proposal therefor, the City agrees that, no
more than seven business days after the date of such award, it shall provide without cost to the
senior managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds are awarded 115 copies of
the Official Statement and the addendum or addenda described above. The City designates
the senior managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds are awarded as its agent
for purposes of distributing copies of the Final Official Statement to each Participating
Underwriter. Any underwriter delivering a proposal with respect to the Bonds agrees thereby
that if its proposal is accepted by the City (i) it shall accept such designation and (ii) it shall
enter into a contractual relationship with all Participating Underwriters of the Bonds for purposes
of assuring the receipt by each such Participating Underwriter of the Final Official Statement.

DETAILS OF THE BONDS
The Bonds will be dated May 1, 1996, as the date of original issue, and will bear interest
payable on May 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing November 1, 1996. Interest will
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
The Bonds will mature May 1 in the years and amounts as follows:

1999 $330,000 2002 $425,000
2000 $360,000
* The City reserves the right, after proposals are opened and prior to award, to increase or reduce the
principal amount of the Bonds offered for sale. Any such increase or reduction will be in a total
amount not to exceed$25,000 and will be made in multiples of$5,000 in any of the maturities. In the
event the principal amount of the Bonds is increased or reduced, any premium offered or any discount
taken by the successful bidder will be increased or reduced by a percentage equal to the percentage
by which the principal amount of the Bonds is increased or reduced.
BOOK ENTRY SYSTEM
The Bonds will be issued by means of a book entry system with no physical distribution of
Bonds made to the public. The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form and one Bond,
representing the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds maturing in each year, will be
registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"),
New York, New York, which will act as securities depository of the Bonds. Individual purchases
of the Bonds may be made in the principal amount of $5,000 or any multiple thereof of a single
maturity through book entries made on the books and records of DTC and its participants.
Principal and interest are payable by the registrar to DTC or its nominee as registered owner of
the Bonds. Transfer of principal and interest payments to participants of DTC will be the
responsibility of DTC; transfer of principal and interest payments to beneficial owners by
participants will be the responsibility of such participants and other nominees of beneficial
owners. The purchaser, as a condition of delivery of the Bonds, will be required to deposit the
Bonds with DTC.
REGISTRAR
The City will name the registrar which shall be subject to applicable SEC regulations. The City
will pay for the services of the registrar.
OPTIONAL REDEMPTION
The Bonds will not be subject to payment in advance of their respective stated maturity dates.
SECURITY AND PURPOSE
The Bonds will be general obligations of the City for which the City will pledge its full faith and
credit and power to levy direct general ad valorem taxes. The proceeds will be used to refund
in advance of maturity the 1998 through 2002 maturities of the City's $2,770,000 General
Obligation Recreational Facility Refunding Bonds, Series 1989B, dated April 1, 1989.
TYPE OF PROPOSALS
Proposals shall be for not less than $1,790,560 and accrued interest on the total principal
amount of the Bonds. Proposals shall be accompanied by a Good Faith Deposit ("Deposit") in
the form of a certified or cashier's check or a Financial Surety Bond in the amount of $18,050,
payable to the order of the City. If a check is used, it must accompany each proposal. If a
Financial Surety Bond is used, it must be from an insurance company licensed to issue such a
bond in the State of Minnesota, and preapproved by the City. Such bond must be submitted to
Springsted Incorporated prior to the opening of the proposals. The Financial Surety Bond must
identify each underwriter whose Deposit is guaranteed by such Financial Surety Bond. If the
Bonds are awarded to an underwriter using a Financial Surety Bond, then that purchaser is
required to submit its Deposit to Springsted Incorporated in the form of a certified or cashier's
check or wire transfer as instructed by Springsted Incorporated not later than 3:30 P.M., Central
Time, on the next business day following the award. If such Deposit is not received by that
time, the Financial Surety Bond may be drawn by the City to satisfy the Deposit requirement.
The City will deposit the check of the purchaser, the amount of which will be deducted at
settlement and no interest will accrue to the purchaser. In the event the purchaser fails to
comply with the accepted proposal, said amount will be retained by the City. No proposal can
be withdrawn or amended after the time set for receiving proposals unless the meeting of the
City scheduled for award of the Bonds is adjourned, recessed, or continued to another date
without award of the Bonds having been made. Rates shall be in integral multiples of 5/100 or
1/8 of 1%. Rates must be in ascending order. Bonds of the same maturity shall bear a single
rate from the date of the Bonds to the date of maturity. No conditional proposals will be
accepted.
9 - ii -
.
AWARD
The Bonds will be awarded on the basis of the lowest interest rate to be determined on a true
interest cost (TIC) basis. The City's computation of the interest rate of each proposal, in
accordance with customary practice, will be controlling.
The City will reserve the right to: (i) waive non-substantive informalities of any proposal or of
matters relating to the receipt of proposals and award of the Bonds, (ii) reject all proposals
without cause, and, (iii) reject any proposal which the City determines to have failed to comply
with the terms herein.
BOND INSURANCE AT PURCHASER'S OPTION
If the Bonds qualify for issuance of any policy of municipal bond insurance or commitment
therefor at the option of the underwriter, the purchase of any such insurance policy or the
issuance of any such commitment shall be at the sole option and expense of the purchaser of
the Bonds. Any increased costs of issuance of the Bonds resulting from such purchase of
insurance shall be paid by the purchaser, except that, if the City has requested and received a
rating on the Bonds from a rating agency, the City will pay that rating fee. Any other rating
agency fees shall be the responsibility of the purchaser.
Failure of the municipal bond insurer to issue the policy after Bonds have been awarded to the
purchaser shall not constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery on
the Bonds.
CUSIP NUMBERS
If the Bonds qualify for assignment of CUSIP numbers such numbers will be printed on the
Bonds, but neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bond nor any error with respect
thereto will constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery of the
Bonds. The CUSIP Service Bureau charge for the assignment of CUSIP identification numbers
shall be paid by the purchaser.
SETTLEMENT
Within 40 days following the date of their award, the Bonds will be delivered without cost to the
purchaser at a place mutually satisfactory to the City and the purchaser. Delivery will be
subject to receipt by the purchaser of an approving legal opinion of Dorsey & Whitney P.L.L.P.
of Minneapolis, Minnesota, and of customary closing papers, including a no-litigation certificate.
On the date of settlement payment for the Bonds shall be made in federal, or equivalent, funds
which shall be received at the offices of the City or its designee not later than 12:00 Noon,
Central Time. Except as compliance with the terms of payment for the Bonds shall have been
made impossible by action of the City, or its agents, the purchaser shall be liable to the City for
any loss suffered by the City by reason of the purchaser's non-compliance with said terms for
payment.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
In order to permit the underwriters purchasing the Bonds to comply with paragraph (b)(5) of
Rule 15c2-12, in the Resolution authorizing and ordering issuance of the Bonds the City will
covenant and agree for the benefit of the holders from time to time of the Bonds, to comply with
Rule 15c2-12, paragraph (b)(5). A description of the City's undertaking is set forth in the Official
Statement.
OFFICIAL STATEMENT
The City has authorized the preparation of an Official Statement containing pertinent
information relative to the Bonds, and said Official Statement will serve as a nearly-final Official
0 - iii -
Statement within the meaning of Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
For copies of the Official Statement or for any additional information prior to sale, any
prospective purchaser is referred to the Financial Advisor to the City, Springsted Incorporated,
85 East Seventh Place, Suite 100, Saint Paul, Minnesota 55101, telephone (612) 223-3000.
The Official Statement, when further supplemented by an addendum or addenda specifying the
maturity dates, principal amounts and interest rates of the Bonds, together with any other
information required by law, shall constitute a "Final Official Statement" of the City with respect
to the Bonds, as that term is defined in Rule 15c2-12. By awarding the Bonds to any
underwriter or underwriting syndicate submitting a proposal therefor, the City agrees that, no
more than seven business days after the date of such award, it shall provide without cost to the
senior managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds are awarded 70 copies of the
Official Statement and the addendum or addenda described above. The City designates the
senior managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds are awarded as its agent for
purposes of distributing copies of the Final Official Statement to each Participating Underwriter.
Any underwriter delivering a proposal with respect to the Bonds agrees thereby that if its
proposal is accepted by the City (i) it shall accept such designation and (ii) it shall enter into a
contractual relationship with all Participating Underwriters of the Bonds for purposes of assuring
the receipt by each such Participating Underwriter of the Final Official Statement.

Engineering Division Resolution Approving Plans and Specifications and Ordering Advertisement
Alan Gray for Bids for Sunnybrook Road Improvements
Recommended Action:
Adopt resolution approving plans and specifications and ordering advertisement for bids for Sunnybrook Road
improvements I.C. 94-5363.
Overview:
The feasibility study for Sunnybrook Road improvements was prepared in February, 1995. A public hearing
for the proposed improvements was held April 18, 1995 and continued to May 9, 1995. Resolution No. 95-90,
dated May 9, 1995, directed the preparation of the plans and specifications for Sunnybrook Road
improvements. The plans presented to Council have been prepared by the City's consultant, 1LC.M., Inc.,
and reviewed by City staff and are recommended for approval by the City Engineer. The street improvements
incorporated in these final plans extend about 180 feet westerly of the termination point depicted in the
feasibility study. This more westerly termination has been determined based on detailed surveys and the desire
to provide a smooth transition into Creek Knoll Road and adequate sight distances in the vicinity of this
transition. Soil borings taken during the design phase highlighted an area of peat and muck soils approximately
15 feet in depth in the vicinity of a drainage swale which crosses Sunnybrook Road. The final plans
incorporate a surcharge procedure to accommodate widening of the road bed and the addition of a sidewalk in
this area of poor soils. The surcharge procedure will extend the construction phase for Sunnybrook Road into
1997. The majority of the roadway will be completed in 1996. The area involving the surcharge, which will
be approximately 300 feet long, would be left as a gravel surface through the winter and completed in 1997.
Primary Issues:
The engineer's estimate based on final plans is approximately 21% higher than the feasibility study estimates.
Property owners were advised of the potential price increase at a neighborhood meeting held March 7, 1996.
Based on the current estimate, the unit assessment rate for sanitary sewer, watermain and street improvements
would be$17,500. Under current Council policy, seven homestead units would be capped at$15,000 resulting
in a total City share for the project of $17,500. There is a possibility that the bidding market will be
competitive and that the low bid will be below the current engineering estimate. The construction bid being
awarded this evening for Birch Island Acres 2nd Addition improvements may be an indicator. The engineer's
estimate based on final plans was $192,800. The low bid was $132,800.
An easement for the construction of sanitary sewer and storm sewer outfalls to Purgatory Creek through the
Wersal property is presently being negotiated. A professional appraisal of the easement value has been
acquired and is presently being reviewed by the Wersals. Staff hopes to reach final agreement on appropriate
compensation with the Wersals within two weeks.

Rodney W. Rue 4/Eden Prairie High School Entrance, Ordering Improvements and
Preparation of Plans and Specifications
Recommended Action:
Approve resolution receiving 100% petition and ordering improvements and preparation of plans
and specifications for improvements at CSAH 4/Eden Prairie High School Entrance
Overview:
The staff has been working with Hennepin County and the School District to facilitate the
intersection improvements (widening CSAH 4 and traffic signal) at the new High School
entrance on CSAH 4. Having the School District petition for these improvements will allow
them more flexibility in paying the cost of these improvements. It also provides us an easier
way to administer the construction of the project.
Primary Issues:
The School District will be responsible for construction and engineering costs for this project.
There may also be some construction financing costs associated with the project, if the School
District chooses not to pay the costs on a monthly basis. The Hennepin County Department of
Public Works will likely contribute their personnel to the construction administrative services.
We have proposed that the City of Eden Prairie waive our 9% administrative fee as part of this
partnership project as a means of reducing the public's costs for these improvements.
Financial Issues:
The Eden Prairie School District will be responsible for all the construction and engineering
costs associated with this project. We would propose that the City of Eden Prairie not contribute
financially, but rather provide staff time to administer and coordinate this project (between the
Eden Prairie School District and Hennepin County Department of Public Works). We would
therefore recommend that the resolution be approved receiving the 100% petition and ordering
the preparation of plans and specifications for these improvements.

Staff Report
Southwest Crossing Hotel
February 23, 1996
BACKGROUND
This piece of property is Site 2 of the 1984 Southwest Crossing Planned Unit Development . The
Planned Unit Development was approved for 1.6 million square feet of commercial, office, and
industrial uses. The Planned Unit Development was modified in 1987 to shift density to the west
end of the property to accommodate taller and larger office buildings. As a tradeoff, smaller and
shorter buildings were approved on the east end so that more of the natural features could be
preserved.
The 1984 and 1987 Planned Unit Development showed this site for a 250 room hotel.
PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT AMENDMENT
The projects requires a land use amendment to the 1987 Planned Unit Development. The
proposal is for 2 hotels with a total of 222 rooms and a 300 seat restaurant. These land uses are
consistent with the overall Planned Unit Development. Hotels and restaurants are compatible
land uses which use parking efficiently and generates less traffic.
SITE PLAN
The site plans shows 3 lots. Each lot meets the acreage and dimensional requirements of the
'Commercial Regional Service zoning district. The Base area ratio permitted is .20. The floor
area permitted is .40. All three sites are less than the base area ratio of.20. A planned unit
development waiver is necessary for floor area ratio for both hotels. Amerisuites is .57 and
Fairfield is .44.The floor area ratio for all 3 lots is .40. The 1987 Planned Unit Development
showed a .69 floor area ratio. Since the total floor area ratio meets code and the floor area ratio is
consistent with the planned unit development,the waiver request is reasonable.
Parking required is a ratio of 1 per 3 seats for the restaurant and a ratio of 1 per room and 1 per
employee per shift for the hotels. Parking requirements are met on each lot.
ARCHITECTURE
Detailed plan approval is requested for the hotels only. The hotels meet the 75% face brick and
glass requirement. Buildings are also required to be compatible in terms colors,textures and
construction details. An exterior materials board should be submitted for review and approval by
the City Council.
2
l
Staff Report
Southwest Crossing Hotel
February 23, 1996
The Amerisuites Hotel is 68.75 feet high. The maximum height permitted in the Commercial
Regional Service district is 40 feet. This is a planned unit development waiver. The height waiver
is consistent with the 1987 plan. The western part of the Planned Unit Development was
approved for taller and larger buildings. As a tradeoff, shorter and smaller buildings were
approved on the east end to preserve more natural features. The 1987 plan showed a 9 story
building. The waiver is consistent with the Planned Unit Development.
All mechanical equipment must be screened. A mechanical equipment screening plan should be
submitted for review and approval by the City Council.
LANDSCAPING
The amount of landscaping required is based on a caliper inch requirement according to building
square footage and screening of parking areas. The landscape plan meets city code requirements
All trash areas must be inside of the buildings.
UTILITIES
Sanitary sewer and water is available in Viking Drive. Stormwater will be treated in an existing
pond on the east side of Prairie Center Drive.
TRAFFIC
As part of the 1984 Planned Unit Development a traffic study was prepared. As each site
develops, staff compares trip generation to the master traffic study. On some sites traffic
exceeded the projections while on others traffic was less. This project increases traffic by 133
trips beyond what was projected for site 2, however this traffic increase is offset by a traffic
decrease of 141 trips for the KMSP site. The KMSP site was planned for a 125,000 square foot
office building. KMSP is 62,000 square feet.
GRADING
This site was graded in 1984 and 1987. There are no significant trees on site.
POWER LINES
The existing power poles and lines will be relocated. No buildings will be within the easement.

Staff Report
Southwest Crossing Hotel
February 23, 1996
SIDEWALKS AND TRAILS
There are existing sidewalks and trails adjacent to the site.
SHORELAND ORDINANCE
Since this site is 210 feet from the lake,lot size and setback provisions of the shoreland ordinance
do not apply. These provisions would apply if the site was within 200 feet of the normal ordinary
water level of Smetana Lake.
The shoreland area is defined as 1000 feet from the normal ordinary high water level. The 30 foot
maximum building height and 30% impervious surface requirements apply. Since the site plan
exceeds these requirements, Board Of Appeals and Adjustment variances are needed. The
variances are reasonable and consistent with other variances granted for Southwest Crossing.
Southwest Crossing is 80 feet to the top of the penthouse. Impervious surface is 65%. The city
has granted impervious variances in shoreland areas provided the stormwater is treated.
Stormwater will flow into a pond on the east side of Prairie Center Drive before discharge into
Smetana Lake.
SIGNS
Each site may have one, 80 square foot pylon sign, 20 feet high. The Fairfield Inn is proposing an
off site sign on the restaurant site so it would have visibility from 494. This is a Planned Unit
Development Waiver. The waiver request is reasonable since all proposed pylon signs meet the
required 300 foot minimum separation, sign size, and height requirements.
PRELIMINARY PLAT
The preliminary plat shows three lots which meet the dimensional and square footage
requirements of the Commercial Regional Service Zoning District. A 100 foot lot width and
10,000 square feet is required.
RETAINING WALLS
A 6 foot high retaining wall is proposed on the Fairfield Inn site. A 5 foot high retaining wall is
proposed on the Amerisuite site. Retaining walls should be of masonry construction and similar in
color and design to the walls on the Mariott and Century Bank sites.

A. SOUTHWEST CROSSING HOTEL by BTO Development Corporation.
Request for PUD Concept Review on 109 acres,Planned Unit Development
District Review on 2.25 acres,Zoning District Amendment, Site Plan Review
on 2.25 acres and Preliminary Plat of 2.25 acres into 3 lots. Location: Viking
Drive and Prairie Center Drive.
Franzen reviewed the staff report and noted the land uses are compatible with
the overall PUD. Staff recommended approval of the project as proposed.
The proponents were present to answer questions.
Sandstad inquired about the location of the power line easements. Alan Hill,
BTO Land Company, reviewed the power line location on the map. It was
noted the overall floor ratio of three lots and the structures are taken in
aggregate at 40 percent which is what the ordinance required. Waivers are
required concerning the common lot line for parking setbacks.
Wissner expressed concern about the lack of a full service hotel on that site.
Hill replied there are not many full service hotels being built because of the
recession during the last four years. Full service hotels are not economically
feasible at the present time. The new hotels will have no restaurant but will
offer Continental breakfast. This is a very strong market for a limited service
type motel.
Ismail expressed concern about five hotels in such a small area. Franzen
stated there is usually more than one hotel within the same vicinity. Each
hotel is also geared towards a separate market, so they are not in direct
competition with each other.
Sandstad asked for a description of the Amerisuites Hotel. Hill stated it's a
two room suite, which is bigger than a standard room, for the same cost.
Each unit has two phones and one can accommodate a computer.
Schlampp expressed concern about notifying residents nearby of the variance
needed for the height of the buildings. Sandstad stated he was concerned
about it also, but after reviewing the reduced set of plans, the distance from
the homes on Valley View Road to the proposed site was approximately equal
in distance from the two existing buildings on the east and west of what's
being proposed.
12
Kardell inquired about which meals would be served at the restaurants. Hill
noted one restaurant will serve breakfast, lunch and dinner; and the other
restaurant will serve primarily lunch and dinner.
Ismail was concerned about the exterior of the two buildings. Hill said they
will work with Staff to keep them the same in color.
The Public Hearing was opened. No one present wished to speak.
MOTION 1: Sandstad moved, Clinton seconded,to close the public hearing.
Motion carried 7-0.
MOTION 2: Sandstad moved, Clinton seconded, to recommend to the City
Council approval of the request of Southwest Crossing Hotel for PUD

Eden Prairie, MN 55344
RE: Southwest Crossing Hotel Site, Smetana Lake (27-73W) City of Eden Prairie,
Hennepin County
Dear Mr. Franzen:
We have reviewed the plans(received February 2, 1996)for the Southwest Crossing Hotel Site and
have the following comments to offer.
1. While Southwest Crossing Hotel Site is close to Smetana Lake (27-73W), Smetana Lake
does not appear to be on the site. Therefore, Southwest Crossing Hotel Site is not under
DNR jurisdiction and a DNR Permit is not required.
2. Southwest Crossing Hotel Site does not appear to be within a FEMA designated floodplain
district. There are no wetlands or sediment ponds on the Hotel Site. Therefore, it seems
unlikely that flooding will occur on the Hotel Site.
3. The submitted information indicates that the Southwest Crossing Hotel Site will use a
regional stormwater treatment basin. We approve of regional ponding. However, we are
against converting natural wetlands into stormwater treatment ponds. Routing stormwater
directly to lakes and streams can cause sedimentation, degrade water quality, and cause water
level bounces that are detrimental to wildlife values, aesthetic values, property values and
recreation.
4. Smetana Lake (27-73W) has a shoreland classification of Natural Environment and a
shoreland district that extends 1000 feet from the ordinary high water level of 835.2' (NGVD,
1929). The development must be consistent with Eden Prairie's shoreland management
regulations. In particular you should note:
A. There are steep slopes on the Southwest Crossing Hotel site. Topographic alterations
should be minimized in these areas. Section 8G of the Eden Prairie Shoreland
Ordinance states that soil erosion protection, soil protection, and development
visibility shall be required by the City for steep slopes. The erosion control guidelines
in "Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas - Best Management Practices for
Minnesota" MPCA, October 1989, or their equivalent should be followed.
AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER
Mr. Mike Franzen
February 22, 1996
Page 2
B. The percentage of impervious surface on the Southwest Crossing Hotel Site is within
the limits set by the Eden Prairie Shoreland Ordinance, but it is very high. The water
quality of Smetana Lake will become poorer as the percentage of impervious surface
within its watershed increases. Eden Prairie should minimize impervious surfaces
whenever possible.
C. The structures on the Southwest Crossing Hotel Site are very high. We recommend
that these structures be screened from view from Smetana Lake using color, existing
vegetation, landscaping, and other methods approved by the City of Eden Prairie.
D. The Southwest Crossing Hotel Site appears to be a commercial planned unit
development and it should conform to the standards of Section 11.50 of the Eden
Prairie Ordinance. We are concerned that the number of units within the Southwest
Crossing Hotel Site may exceed the standards in the ordinance.
5. The following comments are general and pertain to all projects.
A. If construction involves dewatering in excess of 10,000 gallons per day or 1 million
gallons per year, the contractor will need to obtain a DNR appropriations permit. It
typically takes approximately 60 days to process the permit application.
B. If construction activities disturb more than five acres of land, the contractor must
apply for a stormwater permit from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency(Dan
Sullivan @ 296-7203).
C. The comments in this letter address DNR-Division of Waters jurisdictional matters
and concerns. These comments should not be construed as DNR support or lack
thereof for a particular project.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment. Please contact me at 772-7910 should you have any
questions regarding these comments.

Michael Franzen Code
REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION:
The City Council is requested to approve the revised Shoreland Management portion of the City Code
(Section 11.50),Regulation of use of Lakes and Waters Generally (Section 9.60), and Definitions (Section
11.02).
OVERVIEW:
The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) adopted revisions to the State Shoreland
Management Rules on July 3, 1989. As part of the revised state rules, local governments are required to
adopt a shoreland code or amend their exiting code to be in substantial compliance with the new state rules.
On February 1, 1996, the DNR gave conditional approval of Eden Prairie's proposed shoreland code, with
final approval to follow after City approval.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the revised Shoreland Management at it February 26,
1996 meeting. The Parks and Recreation Commission will review the Code on March 18, 1996. The Board
of Adjustment and Appeals will review the code March 14, 1996.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Eden Prairie adopted it's own shoreland code in 1982. Prior to that time the City used the DNR
model code and the City's draft code to review development around water bodies and creeks.
Thirty-five percent of Eden Prairie's land area falls within the classification of a shoreland area as defined by
the DNR and City Code. Approximately 10%of the shoreland area remains for development.
SHORELAND CODE CHANGES: The Shoreland Code incorporates the following changes:
• New DNR shoreland management standards adopted by the state in 1989..
• Reorganization of the code, shifting some portions to Chapter 9 (Public Protection, Crimes and
offenses).
Shoreland Management(Public Hearings)
I
Page 2
• A Flexibility of standards request permitted by the DNR.
The Staff does not believe that modifications to the Shoreland Code will impact development, or require
changes in the way Eden Prairie reviews projects, but rather will reinforce Eden Prairie's conservative
approach in review of developments in the shoreland area over the past 15 years.

4
Shoreland Code, July 11, 1995
Section 9.60
B. Authorized Dock Use Area. An authorized dock use area is described as follows:
1. Length - The authorized dock use area for lots bordering on the lake extends
into the lake a distance equal to the lot's lake frontage to be measured at right
angles to the side lot lines and, except as provided herein, shall not extend into
the lake a distance of greater than 100 feet in the case of commercial docks and
75 feet in the case of other docks to be measured on a line parallel to the side
lot lines as extended into the lakes.
2. Width - The authorized dock use area for lots bordering on the lake is limited in
width by the setback limitations prescribed herein. The setback from side lot
lines as extended into the lake shall be 15 feet for private docks and 20 feet for
commercial docks. Where boat slips open toward a side lot line, the setback
provided shall be at least equal to the slip depth, but shall not be less than 20
feet.
3. Multiple Docks - Only one dock is allowed per abutting lot.
C. Structures Not to Obstruct. No dock, or other structure shall be so located as to
obstruct a navigable channel, or so as to obstruct reasonable access to any other dock,
mooring area or similar structure authorized under this Chapter. No dock, mooring
area or similar structure shall be located or designed so that it unnecessarily requires or
encourages boats using it to encroach into any other authorized dock use area.
D. Unusual Configuration. Where the provisions of this Section would cause the
authorized dock use area of two or more lots to overlap, or where there is any other
unusual configuration of shoreline or extended lot lines, which causes a conflict
between the owners of two or more adjacent or nearby lots in that they may tend to use
the same area of any public waters for docks, mooring areas or other structures or for
reasonable access thereto, the owner of any of the affected lots may apply to the
Council for a variance pursuant to this Section. A variance may be (1) to permit the
applicant to locate a dock, mooring area or other structure in a location different from
that permitted by this Section, or (2) to permit the owner of any adjacent or nearby site
lot to do so.
E. Docks: Dimension Limits. A dock as defined in Subdivision 1 of this Section, shall
not exceed, in the case of a commercial dock, 600 square feet, and in the case of a
residential dock, 450 square feet.
5
9
Shoreland Code, July 11, 1995
Section 9.60
F. Prohibited Structure. The following may not be erected on a public water: (1) water-
oriented accessory structure; or (2) any structure above the horizontal plane of a dock
except watercraft covers and slip structures as regulated by this Subdivision. A non-
conforming dock or roof lawfully in existence upon enactment of this ordinance may
not be structurally altered or expanded in any way.
G. Surface Water-oriented Commercial Use. Uses that depend on patrons arriving by
watercraft may use signs and lighting to convey needed information to the public,
subject to the following general standards:
1. Any signs must comply with Chapter 11, Section 11.70.
2. No advertising signs or supporting facilities for signs may be placed in or upon
public waters. Signs conveying information or safety messages may be placed
in or on public waters by a public authority or under a permit issued by the
county sheriff.
3. Outside lighting may be located within the shore impact zone or over public
waters if it is used primarily to illuminate potential safety hazards and is
shielded or otherwise directed to prevent direct illumination out across public
waters. This does not preclude use of navigational lights.
H. Storage. Unless otherwise specifically permitted by this Section, no structure on a
public water may be used for the storage of any materials or items other than
watercraft.
Multiple Docks. Only one dock is allowed per abutting lot.
J. Temporary Structures. No swimming floats, ski jumps, diving towers, buoys,
markers, or other structures surrounded by navigable water shall be located in a public
water more than 100 feet from the shoreline without being authorized by a permit from
the City. The Council may grant any such permit, provided that the proposed structure
is not more than 200 feet from the shoreline, if it determined that the granting of such
permit will not create hazards or obstructions to navigation. Permits shall not be
issued for free floating structures. Permits are not required for diving floats or
navigation buoys.
K. Permits. Any change in the length, width, height, or location of a structure requiring a
permit under this Section requires the issuance of a new permit. If a permit is denied,
or if any activity or structure does not otherwise conform with the requirement of this
6
10
Shoreland Code, July 11, 1995
Section 9.60
Section, a variance may be sought consistent with the requirements of this Section. In
applying for any permit under this Section, the following information shall be supplied
by the applicant:
1. The name, address, and telephone number of the applicant.
2. The type, number, and proposed location of structures for which the permit is
sought.
3. The period of time for which the permit is sought. (No more than 3 years.)
4. A statement as to whether the structure will be reflectorized.
5. If an organization is seeking the permit, a statement as to the nature of the
organization.
6. If the permit is sought for a particular event, the nature of the event.
7. Such other information as the Director of Community Services may require to
assist him, or the Council, in considering the application for the permit.
8. A statement by the applicant that he assumes responsibility for the presence and
removal of all structures in the protected water.
L. Factors Considered Prior to Granting Permit. In exercising its discretion to grant or
deny permits, the Council may consider, among other things, the following:
1. Whether the structure will be structurally safe for use by the intended users.
2. Whether the facility will comply with the regulations contained in this Section.
3. Whether the proposed structure will create a volume of traffic on the public
water in the vicinity of the facility which will tend to be unsafe or which will
cause an undue burden on traffic upon the public water in the vicinity of the
facility.
4. Whether the proposed facility will be compatible with adjacent development.
5. Whether the proposed facility will be compatible with the maintenance of the
natural beauty of the public water.
7
11
Shoreland Code, July 11, 1995
Section 9.60
6. Whether the proposed facility will affect the quality of the water of the public
water and the ecology of the public water.
7. Whether the proposed facility, by reason of noise, fumes or other nuisance
characteristics, will tend to be a source of nuisance or annoyance to persons in
the vicinity of the facility.
8. Whether adequate sanitary and parking facilities will be provided in connection
with the proposed facility.
M. Permit Conditions. The Council may impose written conditions on the issuance of a
permit. A violation of the terms and conditions of the permit is a violation of this
Section and grounds for revocation of the permit.
N. Permit Revocation. A permit may be revoked by the Council.
1. The Council may revoke a permit for any of the following causes:
a. A permitted structure is found to be a hazard.
b. The permitted structure is an obstruction to safe use of the lake.
c. The permit is not in compliance with the requirements of this Section.
2. Notice of the hearing for revocation of a permit shall be given by the
city Clerk in writing, setting forth specifically the grounds of the
complaint and the time and place of hearing.
3. Such notice shall be mailed, postage prepaid, to the permittee to his/her last
known address at least five (5) days prior to the date set for hearing,or shall be
delivered in the same manner as a summons at least three (3) days prior to the
date set for hearing.

Section 2. City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.50 is amended to read as follows in its
entirety:
11.50. SHORELAND MANAGEMENT
Subd.l. Authorization and Jurisdiction.
A. Statutory Authorization. These Shoreland regulations are adopted pursuant to the
authorization and policies contained in Minn. Stat. Section 103F.201-103F.221 and
Minn. Stat. Section 462.
B. Jurisdiction. The provisions of this Section shall apply to the shorelands of the public
waters as classified in Subd.7 of this Section. Pursuant to Minnesota Regulations,
Parts 6120.2500-6120.3900. no lake, pond, or flowage less than 10 acres in size in
municipalities need be regulated in a local government's shoreland regulations. A body
of water created by a private user where there was no previous shoreland may, at the
discretion of the governing body, be exempt from this section.
Subd.2. Declaration of Policy and Procedures. Declaration of Policy. It is hereby found and
declared that shorelands of public waters are, or may be, subject to uncontrolled use resulting
ILl
in: Health and safety hazards, pollution of public waters, loss of property, destruction of fish
and wildlife, impairment of natural beauty, and impairment of local tax base all of which
adversely affect the public health, safety, and welfare. It is, therefore, the purpose of this
Section to provide standards and criteria for the subdivision, use and development of the
shorelands of public waters in order to preserve and enhance the quality of public waters,
conserve the economic and natural environmental values of shorelands, and provide for wise
utilization of water and related land resources, and thereby promote and protect the public
health, safety, and welfare.
Subd.3. Interpretation and Severability. Interpretation. In interpreting and applying the
provisions of this Section, such provisions shall be held to be minimum requirements for the
promotion of the public health, safety, prosperity and general welfare. It is not the intention
of this Section to interfere with any other provision of the City Code, however, where this
Section imposes a greater restriction upon the use or improvement of any premises than those
imposed or required by other City Code provisions, rules, regulations or permits of the City,
State, or appropriate Watershed District, the provisions of this Section shall govern.
Subd.4 Definitions. The following terms, as used in this Section, shall have the meanings
stated:
1. "Bluff" - a topographic feature such as a hill, cliff, or embankment
having all the following characteristics (an area with an average slope of
less than 18 percent over a distance for 50 feet or more shall not be
considered part of the bluff):
a. Part or all of the feature is located in a shoreland area;
b. The slope rises at least 25 feet above the ordinary high water
level of the waterbody;
c. The grade of the slope from the toe of the bluff to a point 25 feet
or more above the ordinary high water level averages 30 percent
or greater; and
d. The slope must drain toward the waterbody.
2. "Bluff impact zone" - a bluff and land located within 20 feet beyond the
top of a bluff.
3. "Building line" - a line parallel to a lot line or the ordinary high water
level at the required setback beyond which a structure may not extend.

wetlands, and shall be at an elevation delineating the highest water level
which has been maintained for a sufficient period of time to leave
evidence upon the landscape, commonly that point where the natural
vegetation changes from predominantly aquatic to predominantly
terrestrial. For watercourses, the ordinary high water level is the
elevation of the top of the bank of the channel. For reservoirs and
flowage, the ordinary high water level is the operating elevation of the
normal summer pool.
8. "Public waters" - any waters as defined in Minnesota Statues, 103.G.005
Sub. 15 and Sub. 18.
9. "Setback" - the minimum horizontal distance between a structure,

level, sewage treatment system, top of a bluff, road, highway, property
line, or other facility.
10. "Sewage treatment system" - a septic tank and soil absorption system or
other individual or cluster type sewage treatment system as described
and regulated in Subdivision 17 of this ordinance.
11. "Sewer system" - pipelines or conduits, pumping stations, and force
main, and all other construction, devices, appliances, or appurtenances
used for conducting sewage or industrial waste or other wastes to a point
of ultimate disposal.
12. "Shore impact zone" - land located between the ordinary high water
level of a public water and a line parallel to it at a setback of 50 percent
of the required structure setback.
13. "Shoreland" - land located within the following distances from public

waters: 1,000 feet from the ordinary high water level of a lake, pond,
or flowage; and 300 feet from a river or stream, or the landward extent
of a floodplain designated by code on a river or stream, whichever is
greater. The limits of shorelands may be reduced whenever the waters
involved are bounded by topographic divides which extend landward
from the waters for lesser distances and when approved by the
commissioner.
14. "Shoreline" - The shoreline for public waters is defined as the normal
ordinary high water level.
15. "Toe of the bluff" - the lower point of a 50-foot segment with an average
slope exceeding 18 percent.
16. "Top of the bluff" - the higher point of a 50-foot segment with an
average slope exceeding 18 percent.
17. "Water-oriented accessory structure" - A structure used solely for
watercraft storage including storage of related boating and water-
oriented sporting equipment.

Shoreland Code (draft 07-11-95)
Section 11.50
4. Covenants must be developed that specify which lot owners have authority to
use the access lot and what activities are allowed. The activities may include
watercraft launching, loading, storage, beaching, mooring, or docking. The
covenants must also include other outdoor recreational activities that do not
significantly conflict with general public use of the public water or the
enjoyment of normal property rights by adjacent property owners. Examples of
the nonsignificant conflict activities include but are not limited to,swimming,
sunbathing, or picnicking. The covenants must limit the total number of
vehicles allowed to be parked and the total number of watercraft allowed to be
continuously moored, docked, or stored over water, and must require
centralization of all common facilities and activities in the most suitable
locations on the lot to minimize topographic and vegetation alterations. The
covenants must also require all parking areas, storage buildings, and other
facilities to be screened by vegetation or topography as much as practical from
view from the public water, assuming summer, leaf-on conditions. The
covenants must be filed with the County Recorder or the Registrar of Titles for
Hennepin County.
Subd. 10. Placement and Height of Structures.
A. Placement of Structures on Lots. When more than one setback applies to a site,
structures and facilities must be located to meet all setbacks. Where structures exist on
the adjoining lots on both sides of a proposed building site, structure setbacks may be
altered without a variance to conform to the adjoining setbacks from the ordinary high
water level, provided the proposed building site is not located in a shore impact zone or
in a bluff impact zone. Structures shall be located as follows:
1. Stairways, lifts, and landings may be either constructed above the ground on
posts or pilings, or placed into the ground, provided they are designed and built
in a manner that ensures control of soil erosion.
2. Stairways, lifts, and landings must be located in the most visually inconspicuous
portions of lots, so as to minimize the view from the surface of the public water
assuming summer, leaf-on conditions, whenever practical.
3. Facilities such as ramps, lifts, or mobility paths for physically handicapped
persons are also allowed for achieving access to shore areas, provided that the
dimensional and performance standards of Subd. 9B and 9C are complied with
in addition to the requirements as contained in Minnesota Rules, Chapter 1340 a
copy of which is hereby adopted by reference and declared to be a part of this

Subd. 14 is allowed subject to the following standards:
a. Intensive vegetation clearing within the shore and bluff impact zones and
on steep slopes is not allowed.
b. In shore and bluff impact zones and on steep slopes, limited clearing of
trees and shrubs and cutting, pruning, and trimming of trees is allowed
to provide a view to the water from the principal dwelling site and to
accommodate the placement of stairways and landings, picnic areas,
access paths, livestock watering areas, beach and watercraft access
areas, and permitted water-oriented accessory structures or facilities,
provided that:
(1) The minimal amount of vegetation is altered;
(2) The screening of structures, vehicles, or other facilities as viewed
from the water, assuming summer, leaf-on conditions, is not
substantially reduced;
(3) Along rivers, existing shading of water surfaces is preserved;
(4) The above provisions are not applicable to the removal of trees,
limbs, or branches that are dead, diseased, or pose safety
hazards; and

City Code must be met for these facilities.
E. Natural vegetation shall be used in order to screen parking areas when viewed from a
public water.
Subd.13. Stormwater Management.
A. Existing natural drainageways, wetlands, and vegetated soil surfaces should be used to
convey, store, filter, and retain stormwater runoff before discharge to public waters,
unless an improved drainage system meets all necessary regulations.
B. Development must be planned and conducted in a manner that will minimize the extent
of disturbed areas, runoff velocities, erosion potential, and reduce and delay runoff
volumes. Disturbed areas must be stabilized and protected as soon as possible and
facilities or methods used to retain sediment on the site.
C. When development density, topographic features, and soil and vegetation conditions are
not sufficient to adequately handle stormwater runoff using natural features and
vegetation, various types of constructed facilities such as diversions, settling basins,
skimming devices, dikes, waterways, and ponds may be used.

PLANNING COMMISSION
February 26 , 1996
B. SHORELAND ORDINANCE Review of the revised 1995 Shoreland
Management code. The amendment includes: 1. New Statewide standards
for "management of Shoreland Areas". 2. Reorganization of portions of the
Shoreland Management code. Existing code was approved by the City in
1982. 3. Flexibility standards.
Franzen noted the revisions reinforce what Eden Prairie has been doing as a
development practice for the last 15 years. Eden Prairie's approach to
development in shoreland areas has been conservative. Low density, large
setbacks, tree preservation and conservation easements has resulted in a
density which is 30 percent of what the state rules would permit. Staff sees
this item has housekeeping and recommends approval.
The Commission complimented on the user friendly way the booklet was
prepared.
The Public Hearing was opened.
Mr. Wersel, 12645 Sunnybrook Road, expressed concern about the new
revisions effecting his property because it is being looked at for future
development. He askedifthe revisionswill bemore liberal or more.restrictive
p
to him as a current property owner if he chooses not to develop. Franzen
stated as long as Wersel does not fill the creek, fill the flood plain, or cut
down trees greater than 12 inches in diameter, the revisions will not effect
him.
MOTION 1: Clinton moved, Foote seconded, to close the Public Hearing.
Motion carried 7-0.
MOTION 2: Clinton moved, Foote seconded, to recommend to the City
Council approval of the Shoreland Ordinance based on the Staff Report dated
February 26, 1996. Motion carried 7-0.

The property owners have requested vacation of a drainage easement which crosses property
included within the Tanager Creek plats. The easement passes through an existing house. The
easement was provided to the City in 1966 to convey drainage from the Ponderosa Hills
Subdivision to Nine Mile Creek. Since the development of Tanager Creek, the easement is no
longer used or needed.

EDEN PRAIRIE CITY COUNCIL AGENDA DATE: 3/19/96
SECTION: PETITIONS,REQUESTS AND
COMMUNICATIONS ITEM NO. VIII A
DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION:
Community Development Proposal from GGP,Inc./Homart For City Participation
Chris Enger in the Renovation of Eden Prairie Center
Requested Council Action:
The Staff recommends that the Council take the following action:
Approve the concept of the City of Eden Prairie's investment in the renovation of the Eden Prairie Center
with Tax Increment Financing and direct the City Staff to work with GGP, Inc./Homart to develop physical
space plans and a Tax Increment Financing Plan according to the March 13, 1996 Eden Prairie Staff
memorandum(attached).
BACKGROUND
Representatives from GGP,Inc./Homart and City Staff presented a proposal for the renovation of the Eden
Prairie Center at the March 12, 1996 City Council Meeting.
The City Council reviewed the presentation, asked questions, and continued the request to the March 19,
1996 meeting for action.
Included with this packet is the March 13, 1996 Staff Report.
MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Chris Enger, Assistant City Manager, Director of Community and Economic
Development
• THROUGH: Carl Jullie, City Manager
DATE: March 13, 1996
SUBJECT: Proposal from GGP Inc./Homart For City Participation in the Renovation of Eden
Prairie Center
BACKGROUND
In 1994,the Eden Prairie City Council recognized the importance of taking proactive steps to
help assure long-term viability of the Eden Prairie Center for two reasons:
1. The Center was not providing the commercial service to Eden Prairie's citizens that they
wanted.
2. The value upon which property taxes are based had fallen since the Center was built in
1974. The Mall was originally constructed for approximately $35 million and is currently
valued at$17 million. With other regional malls valued well above $100 million
(Southdale $125 million)the unrealized tax to Hennepin County,the School District and
Eden Prairie is enormous.
The Eden Prairie Center needs at least one and preferably two major, nationally recognized
department stores to attract full occupancy of national tenants to support the shopping market.
At this point, Eden Prairie Center is 21 years old and requires major tenant reconfiguration and
renovation.
PROPOSAL
As a result of Eden Prairie City Staff discussions with Dayton's and Nordstrom's, and parallel
discussions by General Growth Properties, Inc. Staff, a proposal in concept for a public/private
partnership has been developed.
General Growth Properties, Inc. proposes with assistance from the City using Redevelopment Tax
Increment Financing to completely renovate the Mall and rebuild the Sears Department Store and
provide a new Department Store. The Redevelopment Program will result in an increase in
taxable value of approximately $42 million. (This would represent the increment of new value
upon which taxes would be paid which would flow for a specified number of years to projects in
the Tax Increment District rather than the County, School District, City, etc. All taxes generated
from the existing base would continue to be received by the County, School District, City.)
About 65%of the cost of reconstruction,renovation,tenant relocation costs, code improvement
and parking ramp construction($60 million in costs) would result in market value increase.
General Growth Properties, Inc. is asking the City to invest about 15%of the total cost of the
renovation. General Growth Properties,Inc. would invest about $50 million. The City
investment would be guaranteed against risk by General Growth Properties, Inc. General Growth
Properties, Inc. would go ahead with the construction and signing of the department store and
new tenants before any investment by the City. Over time, we expect the value of the Mall to
eventually grow to more than$100 million, which is more commensurate with other regional
Malls.
NO COST TO TAXPAYERS
Tax increment financing is a type of public financing that may be used under conditions prescribed
by State law for public purposes that would not be made without public assistance. The fmancing
for the property improvements comes only from the taxes generated on the increase of property
value above the existing value of the property. Taxes on the existing value would continue to go
to existing jurisdictions. Taxes on the increased value or tax increment would be used to support
a portion of Eden Prairie Mall improvements and fund public projects such as housing
transportation and redevelopment.
• Eden Prairie Mall is currently valued at$17 million, a decline from a construction cost of
approximately $35 million when built.
The 1996 values for other malls are:
Southdale Mall $125 million- 199.62/sq. ft.
Ridgedale Mall $ 86 million- 180.20/sq. ft.
Burnsville Mall $ 75 million- 121.47/sq. ft.
Eden Prairie Mall $ 17 million - 52.32/sq. ft.
• Eden Prairie Mall fully occupied including one new major department store and a
reconstructed Sears store would have approximately $42 million in additional taxable
value by completion.
• To attract department stores and tenants, Eden Prairie Mall must be completely renovated
and offer amenities to department stores for costs of approximately $60 million.
• The rental from 100%tenant occupancy of a renovated mall will not pay for$60 million in
costs.
3
• General Growth Properties, Inc. will invest$50 million in the renovation with public
participation for the balance. Any public investment would be guaranteed against loss by
General Growth Properties,Inc.
• General Growth Properties, Inc. would go ahead with the construction and signing of the
department store and new tenants before any investment by the City.
• Money for public investment would go toward: parking ramp, building code compliance,
demolition and site improvements.
• Money for public investment would come only from taxes generated from the $42 million
in new taxable value from the improved Mall and department stores. All current taxes
would continue to go to existing taxing jurisdictions.
There would be no real cost to Eden Prairie taxpayers. We are convinced, left to the market, the
Eden Prairie Center will not be substantially improved,and in the short and long run,Eden Prairie
citizens will lose tremendous unrealized tax value that is potential at the Eden Prairie Center.
BENEFITS TO CITY
With City participation, General Growth Properties, Inc. is convinced that the Mall can be
renovated resulting in the following:
1. The construction of at least one and likely two major,nationally recognized department
stores.
2. An increase in the square footage of the Eden Prairie Center of approximately 285,000
square feet and additional nationally recognized tenants. A new 500 car parking deck
would be built to accommodate additional stores.
3. Demolition and construction of a new Sears Department Store.
4. A new 14 - 16 screen theater consolidated in one location as contrasted with the current
split of 9.
5. A completely relocated,new food court of 12 or 13 vendors and 200- 300 additional
seats, clustered with the theaters in an entertainment core.
6. Up to three full service restaurants in the entertainment area.
7. The current food court area would be rebuilt as an ice rink with supporting facilities.
y
8. General Growth Properties, Inc. would provide to the City rent free for at least 20 years,
approximately 36,000 sq. ft. of space for the performing and visual arts, adjacent to center
court.
9. General Growth Properties, Inc. would provide to the City rent free for at least 20 years,
5,000 ± square feet of space for a Social Services Center.
ADDITIONAL BENEFITS OF TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (T.I.F.)
In addition, the T.I.F. program should generate enough revenue annually (above the current taxes,
which would continue to flow to the County, School District, and City)to help fund the City's
Livable Community Housing Goals, provide for some redevelopment of substandard parcels in the
City; and help fund some needed road improvement projects in the City.
It is important to understand that, of the Eden Prairie shopping center parcels,only the parcel
upon which the current Sears store sits, and the Mall parcel is proposed to be included in the Tax
Increment District. That means that all the current value, plus all increase in value resulting from
renovation of the Center, for Target, Kohls, and Mervyn's, would flow to the County, School
District and City, as it does today. The land and developments surrounding the Eden Prairie
Center will benefit from a successful center. All increases in value of the perimeter lands will flow
to the County, School District and City.
SUMMARY
Dramatic changes are necessary for the Eden Prairie Center to attract the Department Stores
necessary to fill the Mall with nationally recognized tenants. Because all of the costs of
extraordinary renovation cannot be paid for entirely by tenant rent, General Growth Properties,
Inc. is asking for help in earmarking some of the potential taxes resulting from the improved value
of the Center to help pay for part of the improvements. All taxes generated from the existing base
would continue to be received by the County, School District, and City.
Based upon our assumptions and analysis, there will be no cost to the Eden Prairie taxpayer, or
other taxing jurisdictions. After the term of the T.I.F. District, all taxes would again flow to the
normal jurisdictions.
The improved Center should result in substantial value increase. Perimeter properties would also
benefit. The City would be able to use the balance of the T.I.F. proceeds for necessary public
projects of local and regional need. These could include; housing,roads, utilities and economic
redevelopment projects.

SECTION: Report of City Manager March 19, 1996
DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: ITEM NO.
Assessing/MIS
Human Resources, Community Status Report and Demonstration by LOGIS XI. B. 1.
Information & Services on the City's Internet Hook-Up
Requested Action:
Approve Eden Prairie's participation with LOGIS as our Internet Service Provider and the use of a
consultant to help us build our World Wide Web Home page.
Background:
In January 1996 the City Council asked staff to investigate the City's possible involvement in the
Internet and the World Wide Web.
We recently completed our investigation of what other cities are doing on the 'Net. What we have found
is that there is much interest by government entities at all levels in creating "Web" or "Home" pages on
the Internet. In the Twin Cities metropolitan area, the cities of Champlin, Maple Grove, Oakdale,
Plymouth, Coon Rapids, St. Paul, Minneapolis, St. Louis Park, and Roseville have created home pages
on the World Wide Web. These pages are in various stages of use and development.
A few of these cities belong to the Logis computer consortium(of which Eden Prairie is a member).
After careful planning and discussion with its members over the last several months, Logis has
purchased the necessary hardware and software to build a wide area data communications network that
will provide Internet services to its members. The services provided by Logis fall into two main
categories: Internet Server and Internet Gateway.
Mike Garris, the LOGIS executive director,will attend the March 19, 1996 City Council meeting to
show a live demonstration of the Internet capabilities.
While Logis has been preparing their Internet service, we have been upgrading Eden Prairie's data
communications systems to allow high speed data communication between the Community Center,
Senior Center, City Center and LOGIS and Hennepin County. Frame relay data connections were
installed through US West to bring our data communications between these locations to "Ti" speed.
"Ti" data communication travels at approximately 1 MB of information per second. This is 35 times
faster than a 28,800 bits per second(bps) computer modem and 70 times faster then a typical home
computer using a 14,400 bps modem. Within the Eden Prairie City Center data can now flow at 10 MB
of information per second.

Internet Background
Attached are two pages from the January/February 1996 Minnesota Cities publication for reference.
What makes the Internet go? This page briefly describes the applications that exist on the Internet.
With the recent changes by the City and LOGIS we will be able to start working on item#4 - The
World-Wide Web "Home Page". Our cost to implement the LOGIS service will be a one-time
investment in the range of$2,200 to $3,200 plus a yearly fee of$2,052. First year costs will total
$4,200 to $5,200. Annual cost thereafter will be $2,052. This will give us the capability at LOGIS to
provide Internet E-mail in addition to the home page capability.
Being a member of the Logis consortium has definite benefits,one of the cities that decided to go it
alone and be it's own Internet Service Provider had a first year cost of more than $34,000 and annual
cost thereafter of$9,840.
In addition to the Internet access costs, we will also be responsible for the cost of developing the Home
page or pages.
We surveyed the cities of Champlin, Maple Grove, and Mankato to check on development costs.
Champlin's home page was built at no cost by a community volunteer. Maple Grove's home page was
built and maintained by a college intern at approximately$5,000 cost thru spring of 1996. Mankato's
page was built by a private company at a cost of about$3,500. According to Mankato,this was a
reduced cost as the vendor is planning to use the Mankato page to help market their service.
Based on our discussions with these cities and home page designers,the construction of an Eden Prairie
home page would cost anywhere from$1,000 to $10,000 depending on the desired outcome and overall
"look" of the home page.
The unknown costs from our survey is the staff time or capital needed to maintain the information on
the home page. Home pages are only successful if the Information is timely and up-to-date.
While the necessary enhancements to our wide area network have been completed, the local area
network is still under construction. Therefore, the implementation of Internet E-mail is unavailable until
this is completed.
What services should your government provide? City staff will have to study and carefully
implement electronic mail and full Internet access. Adequate planning and design need to be built into
what services we decide to offer.
Staff has researched ways to use the Internet connection as a profit making enterprise. The current cost
of computer hardware and software and the large amounts of competition would make it difficult to
show a profit at this time.

What Services Should Your Government Provide?
What makes
the Internet
go •
Software applications drive a computer or computer system. Take
away software, and a computer or computer system is an engine
without fuel, unable to make anything happen.
So it is with the Internet. Seven basic applications exist on the
Internet today. When you "surf the `Net,"you are using one or more
of these applications.
1.Electronic mail,or e-mail, the most widely used Internet
application, allows the exchange of written messages (and docu-
ments) between millions of people—anyone with an Internet-capable
identification.
2.Network news, often called Usenet Newsgroups, enables users
to read and post public, e-mail like messages to a specific discussion
topic. These postings range from extremely useful, thoughtful
comments or discords to "flames" (in Internet lingo: public and often
profane denunciations of another user, usually the poster of the
message).
3. Gopher, a very useful Internet application, allows users to scour
millions of Internet servers for files on a particular subject.
4.The World-Wide Web(WWW or Web), a new way of presenting
and receiving information on the Internet, is capturing the imagina-
tions of individuals, organizations and commercial enterprises, and
getting the most attention in the popular press. Through WWW,
users can call up graphics, enhanced text, voice recordings and video
clips from servers on the Internet equipped with specially formatted
documents. The opening document on most Web servers is known as
the "home page."
5. File transfer protocol (FTP), a technique long used in UNIX
(the computer operating system that dominates the Internet world),
allows a user to transfer files from an Internet server to his or her
server or desktop.
6. Telnet, another standard UNIX application, allows the Internet
user to "log on" or access another computer as if he or she were
directly connected to that computer.
7.The Wide Area Information Network(WAIS), the last of the
"big seven" Internet applications, allows users to conduct complex
searches of specially indexed text documents in servers across the
Internet. r

What services
;.
should your
government Gaya 4%f::1
z Tti;
provide? ��
With the powerful tools it brings to your desktop, the Internet
also presents a bewildering array of options.
Electronic mail only.
Are you going to provide electronic mail only? Using packaged
software, your local government can build a gateway between its e-
mail system and the Internet- and decide who shall have rights to
Internet mail in the process. A gateway gives your government
some protection from unwanted Internet mailings and allows it to
keep careful statistics of e-mail use. With a gateway, your city or
county can also control whether it accepts and sends or only sends
mail.
Full internal Internet access.
Are you going to allow some or all of your internal users to read
network newsgroups and enjoy full interactive Internet access?
Keep in mind that your city can configure its Internet connection
to define only certain portions of the Internet for staff use.You
don't have to give everyone everything. A few basic Internet tools
can give government users the ability to find and download files,
review home pages, and print material. In newer Internet applica-
tions especially, tools often overlap.
Public information on the'Net.
Are you going to open an Internet "storefront"by setting up
your own home page on the World Wide Web, or by maintaining
files that can be downloaded using Gopher and FI'P, or by housing
and monitoring your newsgroup?Answer"yes" to these questions,
and your local government becomes a full-fledged information
provider. With that role comes added responsibility. As an informa-
tion provider on the Internet, your city commits itself to 24-hour
service. Internet users will seek access to your government's
information at all hours.t
