I. CALL TO ORDER
The meeting began at 6:45 p.m.
II. PRESENTATION BY ADRIANIIERBST
Herbst discussed the 1996 Telecommunications Act and its purpose which is to make
competition more open and part of the market field between various telecommunications
companies. This legislation will affect municipal zoning codes, as the federal law
preempts the jurisdiction of municipalities to restrict certain types of telecommunication
devices, but allows for cities to regulate placement of facilities along with other zoning
features. Telecommunications wiring placed in the right-of-way along streets and
highways will still come under State and local authority to manage and control, and the
legislation gives State and local governments the authority to charge for the use of right-of-
way on a reasonable, competitively neutral and non-discriminatory basis. Right-of-way
regulation is subject to FCC oversight, and local zoning controls will apply regarding
placement of such facilities as satellite dishes and antenna towers, but these guidelines will
be subject to the guidelines established by the FCC.
Herbst explained the differences between wired services and non-wired services, and
discussed the differences between the cellular telephone systems we presently have versus
the relatively new personal communication services (PCS), which will be appearing more
and more frequently. These personal communication services operate in a much lower
frequency spectrum than cellular telephone services, which requires that the transmission
dishes be closer together.
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MINUTES
June 18, 1996
Page 2
Many cities are doing propagation studies to determine suitable sites for location of
transmission cells. The zoning codes are then modified to reflect the suitable sites which
can be rented to the PCS distributors which makes it possible for them to implement their
business within the city. PCS are a series of transmitters and microwave receivers, which
can be three to four feet in diameter, and are located at distances of one mile apart to
provide adequate coverage for a particular area. As usage increases, so will the number
of the receivers.
Herbst discussed the document structure which may be required in order for a city to
develop and implement a telecommunications ordinance. These might include such items
as a regulatory ordinance, a franchise agreement, a license agreement, franchise fee
schedule, approval and revocation process, oversight and administration, and community
need requirements. Some municipalities have adopted moratoriums which allow them time
to review their needs and determine what types of services will work best in their
communities.
Harris commented that to develop a community needs assessment would be difficult
because the technology was changing so rapidly. Herbst concurred this was very difficult
to do because the general public was usually not aware of the technology which was
available. Cities have been using informed citizens who are formed into focus groups to
study the options which are available and make recommendations to the City.
Discussion ensued regarding what means could be implemented to keep the "playing field"
level for companies who wished to participate. Concern was expressed that the State
might also enact legislation similar to the 1996 Telecommunications Act in order to
establish a greater degree of uniformity throughout Minnesota. The State has enacted
legislation which controls franchises in other areas and establishes uniform guidelines for
all municipalities. Adjacent communities should work together to determine fees and
perhaps develop a reciprocal method whereby both communities would benefit from
services placed along joint boundaries.
Mayor Harris thanked Mr. Herbst for his presentation and the information and requested
that staff bring this item back on another agenda or schedule another workshop.

Engineering Divisia ler Request for R.A.L.F. Acquisition of Bollig/Jacques Property
Eugene A. Dietz/ .
Requested Action:
City Council is requested to authorize the.Director of Public Works to make application to
acquire property owned by the Bollig and Jacques families using Metropolitan Council funding
known as Right-of-Way Acquisition Loan Fund (R.A.L.F.).
Overview:
The Bollig and Jacques families own approximately 77 acres of land impacted by the TH 212
corridor. The entire land area is not necessary for TH 212. However, the combination of the
corridor needs, Rice Marsh Lake, wetlands and access to any remanent make it likely that this
will be a total acquisition. This will be evaluated during the acquisition process.
With this resolution, the City Council will have authorized proceeding with the R.A.L.F.
process on all of the parcels west of CSAH 4 that are not otherwise being pursued directly by
MnDOT. In the attached letter that requests this action, it is noted that the owners recognize
that there are fund limitations with the R.A.L.F. program and that it could be 1997 or beyond
before the acquisition could actually occur. However, they do desire to initiate the process.
Financial Issues:
The R.A.L.F. program provides for an interest free loan to the City to make these acquisitions.
Except for staff time, the process provides for full reimbursement of the purchase price along
with attorney and appraisal fees, etc.

EDEN PRAIRIE WATERMAIN DESIGN COSTS
As you requested, we have reviewed our records relating to design costs incurred by
Hennepin County for municipal watermain and sanitary sewer design in the Eden
Prairie portion of the referenced project.
Our review covered the period from April, 1991 through May, 1994. Results are based
on a reconstruction of events from documentation in our files, including:
• Letters
• Memos
• Records of Meetings
• Records of Telephone Conversations
• Transmittals
• Design and Quantity Documentation books
• Construction Plans
• Project invoices
• Employee time records
We have identified hours associated with the various events and have assigned costs
based on the appropriate hourly personnel rates and overhead factors in effect for each
month of the review period. While we have attempted to identify all appropriate costs,
the total amount should be considered as the "closest possible approximation" rather
than as an exact fixed number. R`C` L`J

Bruce Polaczyk, P.E. - 2 - April 8, 1996
Based on the above, we have identified the total cost billed to Hennepin County by
- SRF for Eden Prairie watermain and sanitary sewer work associated with SP 27-618-64
to be approximately $6,000.
We understand some question existed as to whether SRF had billed the City of Eden
Prairie separately for any of this work. Such an arrangement was discussed at one
time, and a proposal letter was sent by SRF to the City on October 17, 1991. -
Eventually, however, it was decided not to pursue this arrangement. SRF did not bill
the City directly for any work associated with SP 27-618-64.
Briefly, the work performed by SRF is summarized as follows:
• Coordinate with City and County
• Prepare mylar base sheets for City use (City did design and drafting of watermain)
• Review completed sheets and work with City staff to resolve inconsistencies in
watermain design.
• Perform drafting of revisions to sheets
• Prepare watermain items tabulation as required for Federal Aid plan
• Prepare and coordinate "Public Interest" letter regarding use of proprietary fire
hydrant specification
• Prepare Special Provisions Division WM in format acceptable for Federal Aid
project, based on data provided by City.
• Revise watermain items tabulation and Special Provisions WM, after City
specifications were changed during the review process.
• Revise watermain plans and tabulations as required due to Riverview Road
alignment shift.
If there are any questions, please call us.

corner of Dell Road and Townline Road.
Franzen reviewed the background of the Tom Thumb commercial center which was

proposal is to add two more fueling pumps (for a total of four), and extend the
existing canopy to the north.
Elden Bott, 18772 Pennington, inquired as the location of the proposed pumps in
relationship to the exiting ones, and which direction will the lights face.
Eiker explained they will be located to the north of the existing pumps and the lighting
will conform to the City's ordinance for recessed lights.
Bott also had concerns about the intercom system being left on occasionally and
music being played through it.
Eiker stated the State Fire Code requires two way communication with the pumps.
However,it should not be left on nor have music piped through it
Wissner asked if there has a been an increase in demand for gas pumps in the area,or
is the proposal based on speculation.
Esker explained in order keep pace with the market place this was being done partly
on a defensive posture and speculation to stay ahead of the demand expected during
peak hours.
Ismail asked if past issues of vandalism and trash around the fence line have continued
to pose problems. Franzen stated the City has received no further complaints.
Sandstad inquired if the City has adopted a noise ordinance. Franzen answered yes.

Staff Report
Tom Thumb Gas Pump Expansion
June 7, 1996
BACKGROUND
The Tom Thumb commercial center was approved in 1986 as part of the Hidden Glen Planned Unit
Development. The property is zoned Neighborhood Commercial, and includes a 14,300 sq. ft.
building and a two pump gas area with canopy. Surrounding land use consists of R1-9.5 single
family residential to the west and east, Crosstown 62 to the north, and a daycare facility to the south.
Both the Tom Thumb center and the daycare were constructed in 1987. The single family area
west of Dell Road was approved in 1986 as part of the Hidden Glen P.U.D. Homes were built
before, during and after the construction of the daycare and Tom Thumb center. The homes to the
east were approved in 1988. Hennepin County is currently upgrading Townline Road from a two
lane roadway to a four lane Crosstown 62 extension. This improvement will also include the
reconstruction of the Dell Road/Crosstown 62 intersection to a fully signalized, multi-lane
intersection(see attachment).
SITE PLAN
The proposal is to add two more fueling pumps (for a total of four), and extending the existing
canopy to the north. The addition will involve shifting two planting islands to the north, and the loss
of three parking stalls. A total of 85 parking stalls is required for the shopping center. The actual
parking demand at this center does not require the use of all the parking spaces, therefore, the three
spaces have been relocated as proof of parking.
The proposed structure meets all setbacks.
There are other neighborhood commercial centers with gas pumps (see attachment). The number
of pumps at these twelve centers range from 2 pumps to 6 pumps. All the centers have canopies over
the gas pump area. Of the six centers zoned Neighborhood Commercial, three have 4 pumps, and
three have 2 pumps(Lil' Red has a proposal in at this time to expand from 2 pumps to 4 pumps). No
particular pattern was evident which defined the number of pumps at the Neighborhood Commercial
zoned centers.
TRAFFIC ANALYSIS
A traffic study was conducted by Benshoof& Associates to analyze existing traffic flows and
expected trip generation based on the expanded gas pump area, and an upgraded Crosstown 62.
The existing p.m. peak hour trip generation is 294 vehicles, 114 trips being associated with Tom
Thumb, not necessarily involving refueling. It is anticipated that the expansion of the pump area,
together with an upgraded Crosstown 62 will double this trip generation, resulting in 228 peak hour
trips for the Tom Thumb site. This increase involves approximately 80 additional trips due to the
C- C
Staff Report
Tom Thumb Gas Pump Expansion
June 7, 1996
added fuel area and 34 trips as a result of the upgraded Crosstown roadway. The site and Dell Road
can adequately accommodate this traffic generation.
The traffic analysis also indicates that the location of the fueling area will not create a vehicle stacking
or maneuvering problem on site or on Dell Road.
ARCHITECTURE
The proposed canopy has face brick columns and a mansard canopy, matching the existing canopy.
The lighting for the canopy will include flush mounted recessed lighting fixtures to prevent off-site
glare.
Signage for the proposed canopy meets City code.
LANDSCAPING
As part of the original proposal in 1986, a landscaping plan was approved and implemented, except
for the plantings in the northwest corner of the site. This landscaping was not installed due to the
construction anticipated for the Dell Road/Crosstown 62 intersection. Once this roadway
construction is completed,the landscaping will be installed. Prior to any building permit issuance for
the gas pump canopy,the proponent shall provide a landscaping bond and landscaping plan reflecting
this remaining landscaping to be implemented. The plan shall also include shade tree planting within
the relocated planting islands.
RECOMMENDATIONS
I. If the Planning Commission believes that the added gas pump area is an appropriate expansion
to the existing Neighborhood Commercial use, and will not adversely impact the existing
neighborhood, then approval of the Zoning District Amendment within the Neighborhood
Commercial District on 2 acres, and Site Plan Review on 2 acres,should be based on plans
dated June 7, 1996, this Staff Report, and the following:
1. Prior to Building Permit issuance,the proponent shall provide a landscaping plan and
bond to cover the remaining landscaping in the northwest corner of the site to be
installed upon completion of the Dell Road/Crosstown 62 intersection. This plan shall
also include new shade tree plantings in the relocated planting islands.
II. If the Planning Commission believes that the added gas pump area is not consistent with the
Neighborhood Commercial use, and will adversely impact the neighborhood, then denial of
the plan should be based increased traffic, noise, and lighting, which cannot be adequately
mitigated.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Scott Kipp, City ofyen Prairie
FROM: James A. Benshodf and Edward F. Terhaar Li
RE: Results of Traffic Review for Tom Thumb Service Station/Convenience
Store at Dell Road and Townline Road
PURPOSE
This memorandum is to present the results of our traffic review for the Tom Thumb store
at Dell Road and Townline Road. The two specific points that we have addressed are: 1)
the extent to which the number of trips generated by the store will increase due to the
proposed four additional vehicle fueling positions and 2)whether adequate traffic
operations will be provided within the site.
The traffic review presented in the memorandum are organized as follows:
1) Background Information. This includes existing site and roadway
characteristics, information on the proposed expansion, and existing traffic
patterns at the site.
2) Traffic Forecasts. The expected increase in the number of trips generated by
the store is determined based on the proposed expansion and changes to
Townline Road.
3) Traffic Operations Review. Traffic operations erations within the site are examined
P
to determine whether the plan will provide effective traffic operations.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The existing Tom Thumb development consists of a convenience store and two gasoline
pumps which can be used to fuel four vehicles at one time. The Tom Thumb store is part
of a small mall development, including several other uses. Access is provided to the site
via a driveway on Dell Road.

A C C
Mr. Scott Kipp -2- May 24, 1996
The current proposed site plan shows the addition of two gasoline pumps (four vehicle
fueling positions) immediately north of the existing pumps. The site plan also shows the
closure of the south end of the middle circulation aisle by connecting the existing curb
islands.
As part of our work, we have observed traffic operations and have counted entering and
exiting volumes at the site during the p.m. peak period of 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. on Friday,
May 17, 1996. During this period, we observed a total 150 vehicles entering and 144
vehicles exiting the site. Of the total number of trips, 58 entering and 56 exiting vehicles
were observed to be Tom Thumb customers. No significant difficulties were observed
regarding these entering and exiting movements.
TRAFFIC FORECASTS
Two approaches were taken in determining the p.m. peak hour traffic forecasts. The first
approach assumed that since the number of vehicle fueling positions doubled, the number
of trips generated by Tom Thumb also would double. This results in 116 entering trips
and 112 exiting trips (228 total) for the Tom Thumb use. The second approach accounts
for two components of future traffic growth: 1) addition of four vehicle fueling positions
and 2) increased traffic on Townline Road. Data published by the Institute of
Transportation Engineers indicates that four additional fueling positions would add 40
entering and 40 exiting trips (80 total). No scientific basis is available to predict the
increase in trip generation due to the second above factor, completion of the Townline
Road improvements. If one adds the 80 additional trip ends from the four new fueling
positions to the 114 existing trip ends, the result is 194 trip ends, which is 34 fewer than
the 228 trip ends predicted under the first method. We believe that the 34 trip ends are a
logical representation of the increase in trip generation due to the Townline road
improvements. Therefore, we conclude that it is logical to expect a doubling of trips
to/from Tom Thumb (increase to 228 from existing 114). Accounting for this increase of
114 trip ends, the total p.m. peak hour trip generation for the site would increase to 208
entering and 200 exiting.
TRAFFIC OPERATIONS REVIEW
Entrance Area
Currently, there is approximately 130 feet of space between the east curb line of Dell Road
and the west edge of the existing pump island available for vehicles to queue. This space
should be adequate to accommodate the additional trips generated by the site. If
additional vehicle stacking capacity is needed, the driveway could be widened on the north
side to create two exiting lanes. This widening could occur without removal of any
parking spaces:
Jo
Mr. Scott Kipp -3- May 24, 1996
Site Circulation
The proposed site plan shows the closure of the south end of the center north/south drive
aisle with raised curb. This creates a dead-end parking row, which is inconvenient and
confusing for motorists looking for parking spaces. We recommend creating an
entrance/exit location by eliminating three parking spaces north of the eastern portion of
the raised island(where a single parking row exists). This change would allow motorists
to continue circulating through the lot if all the spaces in that row are full.
Parking Supply
According to City staff; 85 parking spaces are required by City code. According to
observations made by Benshoof staff, there are currently 75 striped spaces available. Our
recommendation to create an entrance/exit area to eliminate the dead-end parking
situation eliminates three additional spaces, leaving the site 13 spaces short of the code
requirement. Several options are available for creating additional spaces. Three examples
are: 1) reduce the size of the islands in the north portion of the lot, 2) stripe spaces on top
of the fuel tanks in the southwest corner of the site, and 3) expand the parking row along
the northern edge of the site.
CONCLUSIONS
From the traffic review documented in this report, we have established the following
conclusions:
a) The proposed addition of four vehicle fueling positions, combined with the
increased traffic on Townline Road, will add approximately 58 entering and 56
exiting trips during the p.m. peak hour.
b) The existing distance between Dell Road and the pump islands should be
adequate to accommodate future queuing vehicles. If additional vehicle
stacking capacity is needed, the driveway could be widened to create two
exiting lanes.
c) The dead-end parking row in the middle of the lot should be eliminated by
removing three parking spaces in the single parking row.
d) Accounting for the 75 presently striped parking spaces and the loss of the three
spaces from above point c), the net parking supply would be 72 spaces, which
is 13 fewer than required by City code. Several options may be considered by
City staff and the applicant to provide an additional 13 spaces.
With follow through on the above points, we are confident the site plan can adequately
accommodate the traffic generated by the additional gas pumps.

C. MITCHELL VILLAGE by Centex Homes. Request for Planned Unit Development
Concept Review and Planned Unit Development District Review on 41 acres, Zoning
District Change and Site Plan Review on 19.65 acres,Preliminary Plat of 41 acres into
21 lots and 5 outlots and road right-of-way. Location: Anderson Lakes Parkway and
Mitchell Road.
Franzen explained that the property is currently zoned RM-2.5. The developer is
proposing to downzone the property to RM-6.5. The net density of the project is 6.5
units per acre.
Dan Blake of Centex Homes displayed photos of the site which showed many dump
sites and piles of debris as well as the extensive tree damage by beavers. Cleanup is
not possible without significant tree loss. However, while tree loss for the project is
estimated to be 67%,they plan tree replacement at almost twice the required formula.
Blake stated the planned homes will be two stories with two car garages in a variety
of architectural styles. They will have vinyl siding with brick accent and should range
in price from$105,000 to $130,000.
Foote asked about tree loss at the corner of Anderson Lakes Parkway and Mitchell
Road since it is such a visible spot in the heart of town. Blake explained they will
attempt to save as many trees as possible, but most will be lost. Many will be lost
along the street side due to the City right-of-way and plans for a sidewalk.
Sandstad inquired if all of the buildings will have fire sprinkler systems. Blake said
it will be required for some of the buildings due to size, but they may possibly be
installed in all of them.
Ismail asked if a recreational facility is planned for the development. Blake stated
there are no plans for one.
Wissner asked Alan Gray if there are plans for a traffic light at the intersection of
Anderson Lakes Parkway and Mitchell Road. Gray explained a light will be installed
in the future,however, it may be two or three years away.
Wissner also mentioned the drainage problems experienced by the neighboring
Atherton townhomes and inquired whether it was anticipated that Mitchell Village
would improve the situation. Blake believes it will be an improvement.
Sandstad mentioned the fact the property to the north is industrial and asked how that
transition will be handled. Franzen stated transition is required by ordinance and
when the site to the north develops, berming and landscaping will be required.
Carol Shear, 8363 Mitchell Road, expressed concerns about the ongoing drainage
problems experienced by homeowners in the area. She also is concerned about the
swimming pool and the chance the development may bring more non-residents into
the Atherton pool area which could be a liability problem. In addition she spoke of
the traffic problems, as well as tree and habitat loss. However, she is happy the
development will not be more apartments or rental properties.
Melony Quelor, 8220 Mitchell Road spoke of the traffic problems currently
experienced on Mitchell Road. She also asked when construction would begin if plan
is approved.
Blake explained it is hoped construction could begin as early as this fall.
Habicht was pleased to see the decrease in density and the fact the wetlands would
remain. He also mentioned he shares the concerns about traffic but sees it as
unavoidable. He is very comfortable with the plan as proposed.
Ismail likes the project but asked if there would be future building in the area. Blake
explained the areas not built upon during this project would remain undeveloped
because they are wetland areas and will probably be dedicated to the City.
Foote was uncomfortable with tree loss,however, he does not see how the debris can
be cleaned up without the tree loss, and feels it is a well thought out project.
Sandstad supports the project,it's fine tuned and the builder seems to be familiar with
Commission's expectations. He is also pleased to see signals planned in the next
couple of years.
Wissner mentioned while the area looks good from the road, once you get into it you
see so much of the debris and tree loss. She supports the project and thinks it will be
an asset in the area.
Clinton also likes the project and thinks it makes good use of the land.
MOTION 1: Habicht moved, seconded by Ismail to close the Public Hearing.
Motion carried 6-0.

Staff Report
Mitchell Village
June 7, 1996 _
BACKGROUND
The site is currently guided High Density Residential for up to 10 units per acre. The site is currently
zoned RM-2.5 according to development plans approved in previous years. The west portion of the
project is zoned according to an approved plan for 92 rental townhome units in 14 buildings as part
of the Mitchell Heights 1979 Planned Unit Development. The east portion of the property is zoned
RM-2.5 according to an approved plan for 186 rental units contained in 14 building as part of the
Mitchell Heights Old Farm 1971 Planned Unit Development.
The combined approved development plan was 278 units at a density of 6.82 units per acre.
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
The developer is proposing a rezoning of the property to RM-6.5. The site plan shows a total of 123
ownership units at a density of 3 units per acre, of which 25 - 30% are proposed to meet the goal
of the Livable Communities Act for ownership housing under $115,000.00 per unit. If the outlots
(wetlands)are subtracted from the overall acreage, the net density is 6.5 units per acre on the west
parcel and 6.2 units per acre on the east parcel. The maximum density allowed on a gross acreage
basis in the RM-6.5 Zoning District is 6.74 units per acre.
The minimum lot size is 13,000 square feet. All of the lots meet the minimum requirements of the
RM-6.5 Zoning District.
PARKING
The amount of parking required is 2.25 spaces per unit. This includes one enclosed space, one open
space, and .25 spaces per unit for guest parking. The proposed plan meets this requirement.
SETBACKS
The structures meet the required 35 foot front yard setback requirement from Mitchell Road and
Anderson Lakes Parkway. All lots meet the required minimum 20 foot rear yard setback requirement.
ARCHITECTURE
There are 6 different building types.

The buildings will be constructed of vinyl siding and face brick. The height of the buildings are 45
feet. This is measured at the peak of the roof. The City ordinance defines building height as
measured to the mid-point of the highest pitched roof or gable. This interpretation means that the
building height is 30 feet. The maximum building height in the RM-6.5 Zoning District is 40 feet.
WETLANDS, UNDERSTORY VEGETATION,AND SIGNIFICANT TREES
The approved development plan for the property would have filled in the wetland on the south side
of Anderson Lakes Parkway and a portion of the wetland on the north side. This plan proposes no
wetland fill.
The preliminary planting plan(sheet 5 of 5) shows areas where understory vegetation would remain
on the property. Most of this vegetation is adjacent to wetland areas. On the westerly site, there is
a large amount of construction debris where there is understory vegetation. In order to remove the
construction debris,the understory vegetation must be removed. The approved plans would have
removed all of the understory vegetation.
Sixty seven(67%)percent of significant trees would be removed based upon the approved plans. The
current proposal removes the same number of significant trees.
There are a total of 757 caliper inches of significant trees on site. A total of 505 caliper inches
would be removed due to construction or construction practices. Tree replacement is 456 caliper
inches.
Although tree loss is higher than the 30% average for residential projects, the higher tree loss can be
considered acceptable for the following reasons:

Staff Report

June 7, 1996
•
1. The approved plan removed 67%of the significant vegetation and 100% of the understory
vegetation. The current proposal is 67% significant tree loss with understory vegetation
saved adjacent to the wetlands.
2. The density of the project is approximately one-half of what was previously approved.
3. No wetlands are proposed to be filled.
4. Tree replacement, plus landscaping required based on building square footage would result
in more significant trees on the property than currently exist.
5. Most of the significant trees are located east of Anderson Lakes Parkway. To develop this
site,the hill must be lowered otherwise the property could not be developed. A portion of
the hill is man made fill.
LANDSCAPING
The amount of landscaping required is based on a caliper inch requirement and tree replacement. The
caliper inch requirement is 552 inches. Tree replacement is 456 inches The proposed landscape plan
shows 978 inches. The landscape plan needs 30 additional caliper inches.
UTILITIES
Sewer and water service is available at Anderson Lakes Parkway and Mitchell Road.
Storm water treatment ponds are provided on-site.
ACCESS
The access points on Mitchell Road and Anderson Lakes Parkway meet site vision distance criteria.
The driveway access to Anderson Lakes Parkway and Mitchell Road is located far enough back from
the intersection to allow for adequate stacking of vehicles.
Campus Drive was originally envisioned to connect from Technology Drive to Anderson Lakes
Parkway. This alignment was planned prior to enactment of the Wetland Preservation Act. If the
road is continued on its present alignment, a wetland area would be filled. The Engineering
Department is recommending that Outlot F be designated as an area for the construction of a future
city road connection. This would cause the alignment of Campus Drive to the north to shift slightly
to the west to avoid wetlands.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Facilities
FROM: Stuart A. Fox, Manager of Recreation Services
DATE: June 13, 1996
SUBJECT: Supplemental Staff Report to the June 7, 1996 Planning Staff Report for Mitchell
Village
BACKGROUND:
The development is being proposed on the east and west sides of Anderson Lakes Parkway and
entails approximately 19 acres of property. The current site is zoned RM-2, based on development
plans approved in previous years. The developer is proposing to rezone the property to RM-6.5 and
include a number of outlots that would become City property.
ISSUES:
Natural Resources/Tree Preservation
The site is currently a mixture of box elder, cottonwood, elm, and American basswood. The staff
has walked the site several times to ascertain the health of the trees, as well as generally evaluating
the tree mass on this property. Staff visited the site once with the proponent and twice to double
check certain information. Overall, the site at one time was a farmstead and an area for storage of
farm equipment. Over the past 10-15 years quite a bit of construction material, including
bituminous mix and concrete refuse has been dumped on the westerly portion of the proposed
project. In addition, some abandoned farm equipment and other grading materials have been
deposited on the easterly portion of the project.
The predominant specie of a significant tree on this site is cottonwood and the staff would estimate
the average diameter of the significant cottonwoods to be 14-15 inches in diameter. There is a total
of 51 significant trees on the site of which 16 trees would remain after development. The total
number of diameter inches of significant trees is 757 inches of which 505 inches would be removed
due to construction or grading. This represents a 67% loss of significant diameter inches of trees
based on the current plan. Mitigation for this tree loss would be to plant 456 caliper inches of
replacement trees.
In evaluating this site, the staff really looked at two separate issues 1) What the result of general
grading would have on the tree mass on the site. 2) Whether or not the loss of significant trees
IS
could be reduced. In looking at the site, this area has been inundated with construction debris and
other general dumping, which would make it extremely difficult to grade for any type of project
without disturbing the tree mass. Basically, a lot of the box elders and cottonwood trees have grown
up in between the piles of construction debris and removal of the debris would require tree removal
irregardless of the type of development that was proposed for this site.
The most easterly portion of the site is a very prominent knoll and in order to do general grading
for any type of a multi family development would require removing the majority of the trees in
order to have enough buildable area. In addition, some of the large American basswoods contained
on the site are completely hollow and make them not subject to counting as significant trees since
they would have to be removed prior to any structure being build adjacent to them.
The landscaping plan that has been submitted by the proponent includes planting of 978 inches of
landscape material on the site. The plant list includes green ash, honey locust, pin oak, American
linden, red maple, Colorado spruce, Austrian pine, and ornamental crab and hawthorne. This
proposal landscape plan mitigates the tree loss and plants the additional trees as required by the
Screening and Landscaping Ordinance. The staff does realize that the overall site character of this
property will change; however, it will represent a more diverse type urban landscape when finally
planted.
NURP Pond
There are three proposed NURP ponds included within the development. This will be evaluated
by the City Engineering Department to make sure they are property sized to pretreat storm water
prior to its discharge into the Purgatory Creek Recreation Area Floodplain.
In addition there is a large wetlands area immediately adjacent to Anderson Lakes Parkway, which
will remain in its current state under the proposed grading plan.
The ownership status of the various outlots is something that is currently being worked on between
the developer, the current landowner, and the City staff. These details may not be worked out until
this development is ready for presentation to the City Council.
Scenic and Conservation Easements
The staff would recommend that scenic and conservation easements be placed over Lots 3, 4, 5, and
6 of Block 2 to cover the area between the delineated wetland and the outer edge of the proposed
lots. The reason for this recommendation is to ensure that in future times that no disturbance is done
by the association or individual units owners to remove or disturb any of the wetland vegetation that
may grow naturally in this location. This is something that was not discussed at the Planning
Commission.
Sidewalks/Trails
The long-range park plan indicates that a sidewalk should be located along the easterly side of
Mitchell Road. The staff is recommending that a five-foot concrete sidewalk be constructed
concurrent with this development; however, the actual timing of upgrade of Mitchell Road and
Anderson Lakes Parkway intersections could impact this recommendation. The staff will attempt
to have further information for the Commission at the time of the meeting.
RECOMMENDATION:
This project was reviewed by the Planning Commission at its June 10, 1996 and was approved on
a 6-0 vote.
The staff would recommend approval of this project subject to the recommendations detailed in the
June 7, 1996 staff report and the recommendations within the content of this supplemental staff
report.

Monday,June 17, 1996
Brown expressed concern about who is going to maintain the property where
the NURP pond is located which the City will own. Fox replied the City is
responsible. It's part of their Storm Drainage System.
Brown expressed concern about flooding even though the Watershed District
does not anticipate flooding.
Koenig was concerned about what type of species of trees are going to be
used for replacement. Post indicated some oak and spruce; and in
accordance with Staffs memo, green ash, American basswood, sugar maple,
and red maple.
Hilgeman asked what trees are included in the 11 percent tree loss. Fox
replied there are only three trees being removed, two 50 inch oaks, and a 36
inch cottonwood. Staffs recommendation is to put some deciduous trees
back on that site which would be consistent with the types of trees found in
that area, which is ash, basswood, red maple and sugar maple. The other
recommendation is to put at least one tree per lot as opposed to putting out
a screen or barrier along Sunnybrook Road.
Bowman asked for a clarification regarding the sidewalks. Post replied there
will be sidewalks on the north side of Sunnybrook Road.
MOTION: Brown moved, Bowman seconded, to accept Staffs
recommendation and approve the project recommendations as stated, in
addition, the Commission would like to see as many deciduous trees as
possible. Motion carried 4-0.
B. Mitchell Village
Staff referred the Commission to a memo dated June 13, 1996, from Stuart
A. Fox, Manager of Recreation Services; and a Staff Report dated June 7,
1996, from Michael D. Franzen, City Planner.
Dan Blake, Centex Homes, reviewed his development proposal with the
Commission. This site is diagonally across from the Eden Prairie City Hall.
A review of the wetland locations was given. Photos were shown depicting
the debris,dumping, and the rapid growth of grass that has taken place over
the last couple of years. The views were shown from different angles of the
property.
Tree loss is estimated at 67 percent. There are 35 significant trees to be
removed. Of those 35 trees, 31 are cottonwood trees that range from 12
inches to 16 inches. The tree replacement is in accordance with the
IG
Parks, recreation and Natural Resources Commission
Monday,June 17, 1996
ordinance which is double the amount normally required.
The project will be built in a number of size configurations with 3, 4, 5, 6,
8, and 12 units per building.
Koenig asked if the units are going to have front and rear entrances. Blake
replied yes.
Fox reviewed the Staff Report with the Commission. The site is currently
a mixture of box elder, cottonwood, elm, and American basswood. The Staff
has walked the site several times to ascertain the health of the trees, as well
as generally evaluating the tree mass on this property. Overall, the site at one
time was a farmstead and an area for storage of farm equipment. Over the
past 10-15 years quite a bit of construction material, including bituminous
mix and concrete refuse, has been dumped on the westerly portion of the
proposed project. In addition, some abandoned farm equipment and other
grading materials have been deposited on the easterly portion of the project.
The tree loss is at 67 percent and 35 of the 51 trees will be removed. The
two issues discussed with the Commission were 1) What the result of
general grading would have on the tree mass on the site. 2) Whether or not
the loss of significant trees could be reduced. Staff believes this project to
be the best in terms of balancing with some of the adjacent neighborhoods
with nearly 1000 inches of landscaping material.
There are three proposed NURP ponds included within the development.
This will be evaluated by the City Engineering Department to make sure they
are properly sized to pretreat storm water prior to its discharge into the
Purgatory Creek Recreation Area Floodplain. In addition, there is a large
wetlands area immediately adjacent to Anderson Lakes Parkway, which will
remain in its current state under the proposed grading plan.
Staff has made the recommendation that anything that occurred between the
normal high water level and the outside edge of the lot should be covered by
a scenic and conservation easement. This would be placed over Lots 3, 4, 5,
and 6 of Block 2.
The long-range park plan indicates that a sidewalk should be located along
the easterly side of Mitchell Road. Staffs recommendation is for a five-foot
concrete sidewalk to be constructed concurrent with this development;
however,the actual timing of upgrade of Mitchell Road and Anderson Lakes
Parkway intersections could impact this recommendation. The Engineering
Department has also made a request to widen the right-of-way to
accommodate further signalization of Anderson Lake and Mitchell Road.

This project was reviewed at the June 10, 1996 Planning Commission
meeting and it was approved on a 6-0 vote.
Koenig was concerned about moving the knoll because that's where most of
the significant trees are on the development. Fox commented there are two
large basswoods and no oaks in that area.
Koenig expressed concern about fitting the buildings in between the two
wetlands without impacting the existing wetlands. Blake replied that the
closest wetland impacts are along the north edge and they will be required to
put up silt fencing prior to construction.
Hilgeman asked if there were any areas on this site for cottonwoods. Fox
replied there should be some areas for cotton less cottonwoods.
Brown asked what the price ranges are of the homes. Blake indicated
between $105,000 and $130,000.
Bowman expressed concern about the five-foot sidewalk not listed in the
Staff Report. Fox indicated it is listed in the Supplemental Staff Report and
that's what goes to the City Council.
MOTION: Brown moved, seconded by Hilgeman, to accept Staffs
recommendation and that they seriously look at a certain percentage of cotton
less cottonwoods in the replacement. Motion carried 3-1-1 with one nay
vote by Bowman, and one abstention by Jacobson.

acres, Planned Unit Development District Review on 1.27 acres, Zoning District
Amendment in the Commercial Regional Service District on 1.27 acres, Site Plan
Review on 1.27 acres and Preliminary Plat of 4.43 acres into 2 lots. Location: Prairie
Center Drive and Prairie Lakes Drive.
Franzen reviewed the history of the project stating in 1995 the City approved a
30,000 square foot building for PetSmart on part of this site and gave concept
approval to 6,000 square feet of additional retail. Final approval for the 6,000 square
foot retail building was not granted because architectural plans were not prepared at
that time.
The current request is for a 6,000 square foot building with architecture consistent
with the standards approved of the P.U.D. and is the same as that of PetSmart.
Franzen pointed out that a three foot parapet wall would be adequate to screen
mechanical equipment. Also, a sidewalk would be constructed along the north and
south sides of the building since that is where the entrances are,rather than the west
side.
Tom Palmquist of Ryan Companies presented the plans for the site. He explained to
the Commission Hartford Place consists of seven sites. Site 1 is PetSmart, Site 2 is
still vacant, Site 3 are twin homes, Site 4 are single family homes, Sites 5 and 6 are
the Pulte Project, and Site 7 runs from Prairie Center Drive west to the wetlands.
Ismail asked what uses are planned for the retail center. Palmquist stated possibilities
include a card and gift shop,men's clothing, hair salon, and an optician.
Wissner asked if PetSmart's parking lot was to service this building as well. Palmquist
stated that is correct. He also advised they hope to begin construction this summer.
Wissner asked Alan Gray if there have been complaints about traffic in the area. Gray
said the City has received a few complaints regarding rush hour.

Staff Report
Hartford Retail Area One 1996
June 8, 1996
BACKGROUND
In October of 1994, the City Council approved development plans for the Hartford Place project.
Hartford Place consists of 7 sites with a mixture of Commercial and Residential uses. The City
approved 186,000 sq. ft. of retail for Sites 1 and 2, 58 twinhomes on Site 3, 25 single family homes
on Site 4, 160 townhomes on Site 5 and 6, and no plans approved for commercial on Site 7.
In June of 1995, the City approved a 30,000 sq. ft. PetSmart on part of this site and gave concept
approval to 6000 sq. Ft. of additional retail. Final approval for the 6000 sq. Ft. retail building was
not granted since architectural plans were not prepared at the time.
SITE PLAN
The current request is for a 6,000 sq. ft. building. The site plan is developed at a base area ratio of
.10. The City code would allow a maximum base area ratio of.20.
The parking requirement is based upon a ratio of 5.5 spaces per 1,000 for a total of 165 parking
spaces. Parking meets City code requirements.
The building meets the required minimum setbacks from all property lines.
BUILDING ARCHITECTURE
The building architecture is consistent with the standards approved of the Planned Unit
Development. The building meets the exterior material standard requirement of 75%face brick and
glass. The building architecture is the same as PetSmart.
LANDSCAPING
The landscaping requirement is based upon a caliper inch requirement according to building square
footage, screening of parking areas, screening of loading areas, and tree replacement. The caliper
inch requirement is 19 inches. The landscape plan meets this requirement.
STORM WATER PRETREATMENT
The approved pretreatment plan for the Hartford Place project included three NURP ponds. The
amount of impervious surface area on this plan is similar to the original plan and the storm water

pretreatment ponds do not have to be increased in size.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
The Community Development Staff would recommend that the PUD amendment and site plan be
approved based on plans dated June 7, 1996 and subject to the recommendations and Staff Report
dated June 7, 1996 and subject to the following conditions:
1. Prior to building permit issuance, the proponent shall:
A. Submit detailed storm water runoff utility and erosion control plans for review by the
Watershed District.

June 10, 1996
B. PURGATORY CREEK ESTATES (1996)by Barry and Brian Post. Request for
Preliminary Plat on 4.98 acres into 7 lots. Location: 12381 Sunnybrook Road.
Franzen gave some background information on the project, explaining it had come
before the Planning Commission before in 1994. The major issue with the project at
that time had to do with its impact on the wetlands and the need to obtain appropriate
permits to fill wetland area.
Barry Post reviewed the project plans and the areas that effect wetlands. Ron
Peterson with Peterson Environmental explained how the original delineation of the
property was done and why the outcome is different now then before. He stated
originally the testing was done during the winter of 1994 with snow and frozen soil.
Now having redone the tests in more favorable conditions the project proves to have
much less negative impact on the wetlands then first believed. The delineation has
now been approved by the Watershed District and Army Corp of Engineers.
Post explained in order to fill wetlands in the City of Eden Prairie you need to have
permits from the DNR, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, the Army Corp of
Engineers, and the Watershed District. In 1994, they had only obtained two of the
necessary four permits. Today they have all four.
Foote asked what type of houses would be built. Post answered they would be two
story and rambler walkouts in the $250,000 to $300,000 range.
Richard Sentz, 12650 Sunnybrook Road, stated he is very impressed with the layout
the Posts have presented for the seven lots and as far as he is concerned the project
can't happen fast enough.
Gerard Wersel, 12645 Sunnybrook Road, explained when the project was first
presented in 1994 he was not in favor because of the impact on the wetlands. He
asked Peterson to explain what has made the difference today on the delineation.
Peterson explained the delineation was based on three criteria; soil, vegetation, and
water table based on the 1987 wetland manual. The difference was determined by the
time of year and the use of the 1987 wetland manual as opposed to the 1989 manual
as previously used.
Wersel also asked about the proposed sidewalk and which side of the road it would
be on. Franzen explained it will be on the north side of the road.
Wersel inquired about the shoreline ordinance and the proximity of the homes to the
Conservancy Area. Franzen explained why the City felt it was acceptable to modify
the conservancy area line in order to allow the project as proposed.
Libby Hargrove, 12640 Sunnybrook Road, stated while she would much prefer to see
a five lot plan instead of seven, she can find no fault with the proposed project and has
no complaints.
Sandstad expressed concern about a fifty inch oak tree on lot one which will be lost
by the plan. He went on to explain he estimates a fifty inch oak must be close to three
hundred years old. Post stated he shares Sandstad's concern and they have attempted
to develop lot plans to allow it to remain,however,they did not find a viable solution.
The developer does, however, plan to replace up to two hundred caliper inches of
trees.
Habicht also considered the loss of the oak tree, but agreed with the developer that
it sits right in the middle of the lot configuration, making it most difficult to save. He
felt the project is well thought out.
MOTION 1: Wissner moved, seconded by Habicht to close the Public Hearing.
Motion carried 6-0.
MOTION 2: Wissner moved, seconded by Habicht to recommend to the City
Council approval of the request of Barry and Brian Post for Preliminary Plat on 4.98
acres based plans dated June 7, 1996, and subject to the recommendations of the Staff
Report dated June 7, 1996. Motion carried 6-0.

Staff Report
Purgatory Creek Estates- 1996
June 7, 1996
BACKGROUND
This is the same project that was reviewed by the Planning Commission and City Council in 1994.
The Planning Commission recommended denial of the project at the March 14, 1996 meeting. The
City Council recommended approval of a 5 lot subdivision and rezoning to R1-13.5 at the August 16,
1994 meeting.
There is new information on wetland delineation, wetland fill, wetland mitigation, and Watershed
District and Army Corp permits that was not available in 1994.
PRELIMINARY PLAT
The preliminary plat depicts the subdivision of 4.9 acres into 7 single family lots and 1 outlot. All of
the lots meet the minimum requirements of the R1-13.5 zoning district.
SHORELAND ORDINANCE
Since this land is within 300 feet of the center line of Purgatory Creek, provisions of the Shoreland
Ordinance apply. Lots 3, 4 and 5 are abutting lots since they are within 100 feet of the center line
of the creek. The Shoreland Ordinance requires a minimum lot size of 13,500 square feet, a 100 foot
setback from the creek, and a 120 foot lot width at the rear building line. All of these lots meet the
minimum requirements of the Shoreland ordinance.
GRADING IMPACTS
Grading will impact trees and an existing wetland area. There are 853 caliper inches of trees on site.
Tree loss is calculated at 98 caliper inches or 11%. This compares favorably with the average tree
loss for residential projects of than 30%. Tree replacement required is 14 caliper inches.
Grading will place fill in the 100 year flood plain. This is subject to Watershed District approval.
Allowable fill is 2240 cubic yards. The proposed fill is 1560 cubic yards. The lowest walkout floor
elevation at 814.3 meets the City requirement for 2 feet above the 812.3 flood elevation.
Grading will also impact an existing wetland. The wetland delineation was prepared by a certified
biologist and approved by the Watershed District and Army Corp of Engineers. Approximately .04
acres(1970 square feet) is proposed to be filled on Lots 4, and 5. The 1994 plan was .40 acres
(14,375 square feet)on lots 3,4,and 5. The grading plan for 1996 is similar to the 1994 plan. The
C C
Staff Report
Purgatory Creek Estates- 1996
June 7, 1996
wetland delination is smaller and is locatred on lots 4 and 5.
The Watershed District has approved the use of an existing wetland bank in the City of Independence
to mitigate the proposed wetland fill.
The Wetlands Preservation Act requires first that an evaluation be made to see if wetland fill can be
avoided. Wetland fill could be avoided by dropping two lots from the project and shifting the cul-de-
sac and the remaining lots further to the north out of the wetland area. This will result in a density
of approximately 1 unit per gross acre. This compares with the average R1-13.5 density in
environmentally sensitive areas of 1.75 units per acre. The Sunnybrook Woods project approved to
the north is 1.75 units per acre. This project did not have wetland fill but tree loss was 42%.The
•
density of this project is 1.47 units per acre.
The City has previously approved wetland fill in Bearpath, Galarneau Shady Oak Business Center,
Hartford Place, and Viromed, subject to mitigation and permits from the Watershed District and
Army Corp of Engineers.
Staff believes that the wetland fill is reasonable based upon the following factors:
1. Low density of the site at 1.47 units per acre.
2. Low tree loss at 11%.
3. Wetland fill is less than the 1994 plan.
4. The disturbed wetland area is bounded by a sanitary sewer easement on the south.
No land closer to the creek is being disturbed.
5. Approximately 2 acres of land (Outlot A)would be gifted to the City.
UTILITIES
City sewer and water is available by connection to existing facilities in Sunnybrook Road.
Storm water runoff is proposed to drain from the cul-de-sac into a NURP pond before discharge into
Purgatory Creek. The pond meets the 50 foot shoreland setback.

Staff Report
Purgatory Creek Estates- 1996
June 7, 1996
CONSERVANCY AREA PURGATORY CREEK
In 1975 Purgatory Creek Open Space plan depicted a Conservancy Area across lots 3, 4, and 5. The
Conservancy Area is described as a"no-build zone". For the most part, Eden Prairie has prohibited
development from occurring within the Conservancy Area of a creek, but has on occasion modified
the conservancy area line when there are good reasons to do so. In the Bluestem Hills and Village
Knolls projects the City approved trading better land outside the Conservancy Area for land inside
the Conservancy Area. This project does not have excess land to trade, but City ownership of the
Conservancy Area could be a mitigating reason.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The Staff presents the Planning Commission with the following alternatives:
I. If the Planning Commission believes that the project is in compliance with City Code and
represents a reasonable use of the property, with minimal impacts on site features, then one
option would be to recommend approval of the Preliminary Plat based on plans dated June
7, 1996, based upon the Staff Report dated June 7, 1996, and subject to the following
conditions:
1. Prior to City Council review, the proponent shall:
A. Submit a tree replacement plan for 14 caliper inches.
2. Prior to final plat approval, the proponent shall:
A. Submit detailed storm water runoff, utility and erosion control plans for
review by the Watershed District.
B. Submit detailed storm water runoff, utility and erosion control plans for
review by the City Engineer.
3. Prior to building permit issuance, the proponent shall:
A. Pay the appropriate cash park fee.
9
Staff Report
Purgatory Creek Estates- 1996
June 7, 1996 -
4. _ Prior to grading permit issuance, proponent shall:
A. Stake the proposed construction limits with the snow fence. Notify the City
and Watershed District a minimum of 48 hours in advance of grading so that
erosion and construction limits may be field verified.
II. If the Planning Commission believes that the development of the property has a
significant impact on the site's natural features, then one option would be to continue
the item and direct the proponent to revise the development plan to reduce or
eliminate the wetland fill.
Staff recommends alternate One.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Facilities
FROM: Stuart Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources
DATE: June 12, 1996
SUBJECT: Supplemental Staff Report to the June 7, 1996 Planning Staff Report for Purgatory
Creek Estates - 1996
BACKGROUND:
This project was reviewed in 1994 and was subject to the City Council recommending approval of
a five-lot subdivision at the August 16, 1994 meeting. Since that meeting, the proponent has new
information based on actual wetland delineation and permits by the Watershed District and Army
CORP of Engineers that was not included in the 1994 proposal.
The proponent is seeking subdivision of 4.9 acres into seven lots and one outlot with a designation
of R 1.13.5 zoning.
ISSUES:
Natural Resources/Tree Preservation
The current site has a single family home located on it and it is mainly open grassland sloping down
to Purgatory Creek. There are approximately 40 trees over 12 inches in diameter on the site. The
trees represent 853 diameter inches of significant trees as defined by City Ordinance. The proposed
grading one site would remove three significant trees or 98 diameter inches of trees. When
calculating the percentage of trees lost on the site, it is 1 1`Yo. The tree replacement for mitigation
is 14 caliper inches of landscape material.
The three large cottonwood trees on the upper portion of the site would remain as would the balance
of significant trees which arc primarily cottonwood that line both sides of Purgatory Creek. In
addition,there are some other fringe trees primarily box elders and elms which do not count under
the current tree ordinance that will also remain once grading on the site takes place.
Landscaping
No landscaping plan was submitted with the grading and plat information; however, the staff would
recommend that the developer plant one-two inch tree per lot to mitigate the 14 caliper inches of
Ia
trees lost on this site. This would enable each lot to start out with one tree, preferably in its front
yard. Species of trees which would be suitable for this site would be green ash, American
basswood, sugar maple, or red maple. These are trees that are growing on adjacent lots, as well as
in wood lots in and around the Sunnybrook Road area.
NURP Pond
The NURP pond is being proposed in Outlot A and would meet the required 50 foot shoreline
setback requirement. This NURP pond would be subject to approval by the City Engineering
Department to make sure it is adequately sized to handle the storm water runoff from this proposed
cul-de-sac area.
The grading in the wetlands would be subject to conditions set forth by the CORP of Engineers and
Watershed District requirements.
Sidewalks/Trails
Currently, no sidewalk is proposed for the south side of Sunnybrook Road; therefore, none would
be required with this development.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
This project was reviewed by the Planning Commission at its June 10, 1996 meeting and was
approved on a 6-0 vote. The recommendation was to accept the project as per the staff
recommendation I.
Staff would recommend approval of this project subject to the conditions as spelled out by the
Planning Commission and the content of this supplemental staff report.

V. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL
A. Purgatory Creek Estates
Staff referred the Commission to a memo dated June 12, 1996, from Stuart
A. Fox, Manager of parks and Natural Resources; and a Staff Report dated
June 7, 1996, from Michael D. Franzen, City Planner.
Fox indicated this project came through the system two years ago but was
withdrawn. It is now back in the same form. What has changed since 1994
is some information based on the wetland delineation.
Barry Post, 9977 Bennett Place,reviewed his development proposal with the
Commission. He reviewed the changes that have taken place since 1994.
This is the same plan but is slightly pulled up north. The Watershed District
and the Army Corp were out, and they do need to fill and mitigate for the
sliver of wetland in the southeast area. They have all the necessary permits
and documentation which took a year and half to obtain. They were
approved at the Planning Commission and have received the neighbor's
approval.
The tree loss is at 11 percent but they will be replacing it with much more
than the required replacement of 14 caliber inch trees. The size of the NURP
pond is 6500 feet. They are going to deed back two and a half acres of the
property to the City. It will be an outlot with City ownership. The closest
setback from the center of the creek will be 122 feet. The lots will be 13,500
feet and the minimum distance is 50 feet from the creek.
Bowman asked what actually was the redelineation. Post indicated they were
trying to fill 4/10 of an acre, and now they are at 400 square feet. They
eliminated 90 percent of the fill.
Bowman stated the NURP pond is 50 feet away from the creek. He asked
what is the elevation from the creek. Post responded the actual elevation will
be fairly consistent with the top of the bank. It will be sufficient enough to
catch all the sedimentation from the high creek. Fox commented it's
consistent with the Watershed District requirements. This is an artificial
pond with just a wall around it to catch the water settling out the solids and
particular matter, and skim the clear water off the top and put that into the
creek so the solids stay in the bottom of the pond.
Hilgeman was concerned about the NURP pond in the floodplain. Fox
replied that with projects like this with the creek, if you put the NURP pond
up land, you would make a quarter of the site unable to be developed.
ly
Parks, recreation and Natural Resources Commission
Monday,June 17, 1996
Brown expressed concern about who is going to maintain the property where
the NURP pond is located which the City will own. Fox replied the City is
responsible. It's part of their Storm Drainage System.
Brown expressed concern about flooding even though the Watershed District
does not anticipate flooding.
Koenig was concerned about what type of species of trees are going to be
used for replacement. Post indicated some oak and spruce; and in
accordance with Staffs memo, green ash, American basswood, sugar maple,
and red maple.
Hilgeman asked what trees are included in the 11 percent tree loss. Fox
replied there are only three trees being removed, two 50 inch oaks, and a 36
inch cottonwood. Staffs recommendation is to put some deciduous trees
back on that site which would be consistent with the types of trees found in
that area, which is ash, basswood, red maple and sugar maple. The other
recommendation is to put at least one tree per lot as opposed to putting out
a screen or barrier along Sunnybrook Road.
Bowman asked for a clarification regarding the sidewalks. Post replied there
will be sidewalks on the north side of Sunnybrook Road.
MOTION: Brown moved, Bowman seconded, to accept Staffs
recommendation and approve the project recommendations as stated, in
addition, the Commission would like to see as many deciduous trees as
possible. Motion carried 4-0.
B. Mitchell Village
Staff referred the Commission to a memo dated June 13, 1996, from Stuart
A. Fox, Manager of Recreation Services; and a Staff Report dated June 7,
1996, from Michael D. Franzen, City Planner.
Dan Blake, Centex Homes, reviewed his development proposal with the
Commission. This site is diagonally across from the Eden Prairie City Hall.
A review of the wetland locations was given. Photos were shown depicting
the debris, dumping, and the rapid growth of grass that has taken place over
the last couple of years. The views were shown from different angles of the
property.
Tree loss is estimated at 67 percent. There are 35 significant trees to be
removed. Of those 35 trees, 31 are cottonwood trees that range from 12
inches to 16 inches. The tree replacement is in accordance with the

Eden Prairie Retail (Office Depot)
Staff Report
June 21, 996
BACKGROUND
The 4.19 acre site owned by the Eden Prairie Presbyterian Church is currently guided and zoned
Public. The cross-utilization area(.19 acres or 8,373 square feet) proposed to be purchased from
the City of Eden Prairie is guided Regional Commercial and zoned Commercial Highway..
COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN CHANGE
Since this is a small site, the change in the Comprehensive Guide Plan will not have a significant
impact on the balance of land use for commercial or public in the city. It is a question of
compatability with surrounding land uses. Since the surrounding land uses are commercial and office,
the proposed commercial use would be compatible.
SITE PLAN
The site plan shows the construction of an Office Depot, general retail, and a restaurant. The
proposed 38,170 square foot building on the church site alone is a base area ratio of.21. The
maximum base area ratio allowed in the C-Regional Service Zoning District is .20. The Developer
proposes to purchase approximately 8,370 square feet of property from the City in order have
enough land to meet the base area ratio requirement. The City and Developer are working out the
details of a purchase agreement. The City will still have enough land left to develop a building of
13,272 square feet. Part of this building is for a City liquor store.
The site plan meets the required 35 foot setback to parking on one street frontage and the required
17.5 feet on the other two street frontages.
The building meets the required 35 foot setback from all street frontages and 10 foot setback from
the rear property line.
A total of 235 parking spaces are required by City code. A total of 257 parking spaces are shown
on the site plan. A total of 22 of these parking spaces would be available (cross-access and use
agreement) for use by the City.
ARCHITECTURE
The building will be constructed out of face brick and glass meeting the 75% exterior requirement
for face brick and glass in the Commercial Regional Service Zoning District.
Mechanical equipment will be screened by a 3 foot high parapet wall.

Staff Report
June 21, 996
LANDSCAPING
The amount of landscaping required is based upon a caliper inch requirement according to building
square footage, screening of parking areas and screening of loading areas. The caliper inch
requirement is 211 inches. The landscape plan depicts 309 caliper inches. The additional caliper
inches and shrub plantings are needed to screen parking areas. A screen wall along the loading dock
with a roof over the top will meet the requirements for screening of the loading dock.
There are a total of 577 inches of significant trees greater than 12 inches in diameter on the property.
These trees are not subject to tree replacement since they are part of a maintained landscape meeting
the landscaping requirements for the existing church.
STORM WATER QUALITY
There are two treatment ponds on the the site plan.
UTILITIES
There are existing sewer and water services in Leona Road.
SIGNS
Signs on the building meet city code requirements. The pylon signs meet the height and square
footage requirements. The pylon signs must be relocated to 300 feet apart.(currently the spacing is
275 feet). The pylon signs must be relocated to meet the 20 foot setback from street right of way.
(Currently the signs are at an 8 foot and 12 foot setback).

Community Development Livable Communities Action Q
110 Chris Enger Plan )
David Lindahl
Requested Council Action:
Adopt the attached Livable Communities Action Plan developed by the Housing, Transportation, and Social
Services Board (HTSSB).
Background:
All cities participating in the Livable Communities Program are expected to submit an action plan to the
Metro Council that describes how cities will meet their Livable Communities housing goals. As you know,
the Housing, Transportation, and Social Services Board (HTSSB) has prepared twenty-two strategies to
help the City meet its Livable Communities goals. These strategies, which were approved by the City Council
March 12, 1996, form the basis for the attached Action Plan for the City of Eden Prairie. In addition to the
strategies,the Action Plan includes all housing related programs, initiatives, and demonstration projects the
City is involved in, or that it might consider participating in at some point in the future.
A draft of the Plan was recently submitted to the Metro Council for their comments and review. Overall their
staff was very satisfied with the document,with only a few minor suggestions for changes. The Plan was first
reviewed by the City Council at the June 25 workshop meeting.
The City has already made progress toward meeting its rental housing goals with approval of the 32
Columbine Townhouse development earlier this year. This project helped the City meet its annual goal of 23
units for 1996. Other than the Pulte Townhouse proposal,which has not yet been approved, no projects have
been approved since March that meet the ownership housing goals.
Support Information:
Livable Communities Action Plan
Livable Communities Action Plan
for the
City of Eden Prairie
It is the intent of the City of Eden Prairie "City" to make every reasonable effort to meet the
Metropolitan Livable Communities Act goals adopted by the Metropolitan Council "Council"January
14, 1996. The aim of the Livable Communities effort is to expand affordable housing opportunities
throughout the region, particularly in communities with high employment concentrations like Eden
Prairie. The housing goals the City has agreed to pursue over the next fifteen years correspond
favorably with the goals set forth in the City's Comprehensive Plan. However, unlike the goals in the
Comprehensive Plan, which are very general, the Livable Communities goals set specific numeric
targets for the City to achieve by 2010. Because of this, the City's Housing, Transportation, and
Social Services Board (HTSSB) have prepared specific housing strategies designed to help the City
strive meet its Livable Communities goals. These strategies form the basis for the City's Livable
Communities Action Plan "Action Plan" . The dates of when the various City Boards, Commissions,
and City Council reviewed and adopted the strategies are listed below:
Housing, Transportation, Social Services Board February 15, 1996
Planning Commission February 26, 1996
Parks Commission March 4, 1996
Human Rights and Diversity Commission March 4, 1996
City Council March 12, 1996
The housing strategies address a number of the elements suggested in the Action Plan Content
Guide provided by the Council including the following:
• Implementation efforts
• A schedule for completing tasks
• Number of new units expected to be constructed over the term of the program
• Income and demographic targets
• List of financing tools
Elements not addressed in the strategies but included in later sections of the Action Plan include:
• Housing Assistance and Development Programs
• Housing Maintenance/Rehabilitation programs
• Local Demonstration Programs or Special Initiatives
• Current and Future Low-Income Housing Proposals
• Other Financing Tools
• Examination of Local Official Controls other Financing Tools
Several letters and reports regarding Eden Prairie's housing initiatives have been submitted to
Council staff over the last two years as part of an attempt to amend the City's Comprehensive Plan
to expanding the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA). The Action Plan includes parts of letters
previously submitted to the Council.
Strategies for Meeting Livable Communities Goals
Each of the six Livable Communities housing goals the City has agreed to pursue and the related
strategies are listed below.
Goal#1
Livable Communities
• (Ownership Housing)
Thirty percent of all new ownership housing units will have values less than $115,000. The
City estimates an additional 5,250 ownership units to be developed by 2010, with 30%
representing 1,575 total affordable units, or 105 per year.
City Strategies:
a) All future residential housing proposals should be expected to participate in helping meet the
City's Livable Communities goals whenever possible. When contacted by developers or land
owners considering submitting a residential project for City review, City staff (Community
Development) will explain to them the Livable Communities goals and strategies.
b) Encourage or recommend to developers of all future ownership housing proposals to have
30%of its units for sale(initially) at a price less than $115,000. Consider allowing less than
30% affordable ownership housing on small "in-fill" parcels that do not transition well from
single family neighborhoods.
c) Encourage residential developers to consider providing more than 30% affordable ownership
housing when proposals are part of a large Planned Unit Development (PUD).
d) Offer density bonuses to developers to help them achieve a 30% affordable housing set
aside in areas of the Comprehensive Plan not already planned for multiple family.
e) Allow single-family attached housing (townhomes, condos, and doubles) to represent 30%
new ownership housing affordable under $115,000. Since the average new single family
home in Eden Prairie is valued at about $250,000, it is unlikely these affordable ownership
goals will be met with new single family detached development.
f) Consider using City financing where appropriate to help reduce housing costs to a level that
meets the goals for ownership housing. Current funding tools the City will consider using
include the following:
Tax Increment Financing (TIF) - Future taxes generated from the increased value of an
improved property are used to write-down land costs and reduce rents.
Community Development Block Grants (CDBG) - Bank CDBG funds and use them to write-
down the cost of land, utilities, or site improvements on affordable housing developments.
Local Housing Incentives Account (LHIA) - These funds should be available to all cities
participating in the Metropolitan Council Livable Communities Program. Cities can apply for
Livable Communities Action Plan 2
3
funds through this account for specific projects that meet Livable Communities objectives.
The Metro Council will match dollar for dollar each city's annual Affordable and Life Cycle
Housing Opportunities Account (ALHOA) contribution, which for Eden Prairie will be about
$125,000 in 1997.
Livable Communities Demonstration Account -Approximately$4.6 million in funding should
be available from the Metro Council in 1996 to communities participating in Livable
Communities with eligible projects. Projects generally must attempt to link housing with
transit, or create affordable housing near employment growth areas.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority(HRA) Levy -The City HRA is authorized by law to
levy a small tax if it chooses to do so for the purpose of performing certain housing and
redevelopment activities. The HRA currently does not levy for such activities.
g) Explore establishing a special housing fund that would be financed by developers that
choose to pay cash in lieu of providing housing for Livable Communities. It could be
structured in a manner similar to the cash park fee the City charges developers choosing to
pay cash in lieu dedicating property for parks and open space. The housing funds would be
used to help developers meet Livable Communities goals. If special legislation is required
to establish such a housing fund, pursue it through the Metropolitan Council. This fee could
apply to developers of small parcels (5-10 acres), and to all office, commercial, and industrial
projects.
h) Consider working with adjoining communities in meeting the Livable Communities ownership
housing goals. Communities that do not have land available for development may consider
funding a project in Eden Prairie and receiving credit toward meeting their Livable
Communities obligations.
Goal#2
Livable Communities
(Rental Mousing)
Three hundred fifty new affordable rental housing units should be constructed between
1996 and 2010, which is about 23 units per year. This represents 20% of the 1,750 total
new rental units expected to be built over the next fifteen years. Two hundred eighty of
the 350 affordable units should be affordable to persons with incomes below 60% of
metro median, and 70 units should be affordable to persons with incomes below<50°Jo of
metro median.>
City Strategies:
a) Each new rental housing proposal should have 20% of its units affordable. The affordable
units will be split with 80% affordable to families with incomes below 60% of area median,
and 20% affordable to persons with incomes below 50%. Every effort should be made to
scatter the affordable units throughout a development. These units should not be
concentrated in one building or single area of a site.
b) Support rental housing proposals with all units affordable under 50/60 percent of median
Livable Communities Action Plan 3
Lj
provided they do not exceed 32 units on any one site.
c) Encourage rental housing proposals that are 100% affordable on sites that meet the
following criteria:
• Close to commercial services, schools, parks, and public transit routes.
• Transitions well from existing neighborhoods.
• Good access to public streets.
• Safe and compatible land uses.
• Total units do not exceed 32 units
d) Encourage and support rental housing within all PUD proposals.
e) Consider writing down land costs where appropriate on expensive sites in order to assist in
making these sites more feasible for developing affordable housing.
f) Consider using any of the financing tools listed above where appropriate to help reduce
housing costs to a level that meets Livable Communities goals for rental housing.
g) Consider mixing rental housing into sites guided on the City's Comprehensive Plan for
commercial, office, or industrial developments whenever and wherever possible. Community
Development staff will explore rental housing alternatives with developers and land owners
when they contact the City with development proposals.
h) Consider working with adjoining communities in meeting Livable Communities rental housing
goals. Communities that do not have land available for development may consider funding
a project in Eden Prairie and receiving credit toward meeting their Livable Communities
obligations.
Goal#3

City Strategies:
a) The City currently dedicates enough of its annual Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) funds for housing related activities to meet its (ALHOA) obligations.
b) If the City spends more that its minimal contribution in any given year, those funds can be
credited to the following years obligations.

City Strategy:
a) The City will encourage all future single family detached housing proposals to be developed
at a density of 2 units per acre or greater, and multiple family proposals at 10 units per acre
or greater.
b) Twin home housing projects at low densities should be considered as single family, this will
bring single family and multiple family density averages up.

Housing Assistance/Development Programs
The City will consider participating in any housing assistance or development program that it is
eligible for and which will help meet its Livable Community goals. A list of the programs the City
participates in, or will consider participating, are listed below. Some of these programs are explained
in more detail in later sections of the Action Plan.
Federal Programs
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program
Section 8 Project-based Housing (400 units)
Section 8 Vouchers/Certificates (55 through Metro HRA)
Section 212 elderly(62 units)
Public Housing The City does not own Public Housing units but may
consider a limited number of units if constructed as
part of a Tax Credit proposal and if owned by an
agency other than the City of Eden Prairie.
Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA) Programs
Minnesota Cities Participation Program The MCPP program was developed in 1991 by the
Minnesota Housing Finance Agency (MHFA). MHFA
designates funds to participating cities to provide low
interest financing to lower-income first-time home
buyers. The goal of the Program is to promote home
ownership to lower-income persons. About thirty
buyers have been assisted through this program in
Eden Prairie. The City expects to continue to help
between 10 and 15 first time buyers purchase home
in Eden Prairie every year.
Housing Revenue Bond Financing
Minnesota Fix Up Fund (rehab loans)
Low Income Housing Tax Credits
Attempts were made to utilize other MHFA programs as part of a 32-unit Tax Credit proposal
approved in Eden Prairie February 1996, but according to the developer of this project the
underwriting standards employed by MHFA make the programs difficult to use. In this particular case,
the developer was approved for the New Construction Tax Credit Mortgage and Low-Income Large
Family Rental Housing Financing through MHFA. MHFA uses the same formulas to project net
operating expenses for a proposed development whether it is a new project or a thirty-year old
apartment building. This process helps determine the amount of financing MHFA will provide for the
proposed Tax Credit project. In the case of the Eden Prairie proposal, the amount of financing the
development qualified for as a result of this underwriting process was very low and caused the
developer to pursue market rate financing at a higher interest rate in order to obtain a large enough
loan to cover the project costs. MHFA should review these policies to insure that their products are
usable for projects constructed in developing suburbs.
Livable Communities Action Plan 6
Metropolitan Council Programs
Local Housing Incentives Account - Eden Prairie expects to contribute about $127,000
toward Livable Communities in 1997. The City
committed $142,000 in CDBG funds and about
$650,000 in Tax Increment Funds in 1996 for
construction of 32 affordable rental townhouse units.
Livable Communities Demonstration - The City anticipates applying for these funds in late
1996 or 1997 to help finance affordable housing units
within a large mixed use development.
Metro HRA Section 8 Vouchers - The Metro HRA is providing 15 Vouchers to Eden
Prairie as part of a demonstration program called the
Housing, Opportunities, Partnerships, and
Employment Program (HOPE) (see local
demonstration programs).
Other Programs
Community Action for South Hennepin The City contracts with CASH to provide a suburban
tenants advocacy service called HOMELINE, and a
mortgage foreclosure program.
Senior Community Services SCS provide a home repair and chore service to
seniors call the Household and Outside Maintenance
for Elderly Program.
Community Home Program The City approved a 6-unit adult foster-care home
project for low income persons. The development
should be completed in 1996.
HOPE Program (See Local Demonstrations)
Housing Maintenance/Rehabilitation Programs
The Housing Rehabilitation Program provides loans up to $15,000 to lower-income homeowners for
major home repairs. Program goals include improving and preserving the City's aging housing stock,
and helping keep residents in their homes. About fifty units have been improved since the Program
began in 1980. This Program is funded through the Community Development Block Grant Program
and utilizes about $80,000 per year of a total CDBG allocation of about$180,000.
Household and Outside Maintenance for Elderly (HOME), this program provides chore and
maintenance services to seniors sixty and older who live in Eden Prairie. Recipients pay for services
on a sliding fee scale basis. Contributions to the cost of services are based on clients ability to pay.
The primary goal of this Program is to help elderly home owners maintain independence by
remaining in their homes. Senior Community Services Agency of Hopkins administers this program.
The City has been funding this Program since 1985 and will continue to assist about thirty
Livable Communities Action Plan 7
households per year.
Community Development Block Grant Program (CDBG):
The City has participated in the Urban Hennepin County CDBG Program since 1975. As evidenced
by some of the programs outlined above, the City has and will continue to dedicate a substantial
portion of its total CDBG allocation to housing related activities. About 60% of all CDBG funds
received since 1975 were expended on housing activities. This does not include funds expended on
the HOME Program,which is considered a public service activity. The table below shows the various
categories of activities funded through CDBG since 1975:

Local Demonstration Programs or Special Initiatives
Housing, Opportunities, Partnerships, and Employment (HOPE) Program
Eden Prairie has been examining ways to develop more rental housing for very low-income families,
while providing opportunities for families to achieve self sufficiency. The shortage of housing in this
market is evidenced by waiting lists of five or more years at project-based Section 8 developments
in Eden Prairie. The HOPE Program was designed to provide housing and at the same time provide
education and training, family support, and employment opportunities to very low-income families.
The HOPE program is a cooperative effort between the City, the Metro HRA, Hennepin Technical
College of Richfield, Family to Family Ties, and Prairie Meadows and Briarhill apartment
developments in Eden Prairie. The goal of the program is to provide very low-income housing in
Eden Prairie on a scattered basis, while also helping families work toward self-sufficiency primarily
through education and training. Section 8 Vouchers allow families within existing Section 8
developments the opportunity to integrate into market units on a scattered-site basis while working
toward self-sufficiency. They also allow families to live in market-rate housing of their choice without
Livable Communities Action Plan 8

the stigma often connected with living in housing"projects."This, in turn, will make available vacated
project-based units for other low-income families and individuals on Section 8 waiting lists
The program involves providing 15 Section 8 housing vouchers (provided by Metro HRA) to tenants
residing at Briarhill and Prairie Meadows. As a condition of receiving housing vouchers, families will
participate in a five-year Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program offered through the Metropolitan
Council HRA. The purpose of the FSS Program is to help families work toward self-sufficiency
through education, training, and obtaining living wage jobs. The FSS component involves assigning
case managers to the participants, assessing their educational needs, and developing a plan for
achieving self sufficiency. The participants will be expected to complete the training necessary to
qualify them for living wage jobs. Case management services are provided through Hennepin
Technical College(HTC) in Richfield for those participants eligible for STRIDE and JPTA Programs.
The City has contracted with Family to Family Ties to provide overall case management to all HOPE
participants. Episcopal Community Services also is coordinating the family mentoring component
of the Program, which involves finding and training local volunteers (City residents) as mentor
families and matching them with participating families.
Housing, Transportation, Social Services Board (HTSSB):
An advisory Board called the Housing, Transportation, and Social Services Board (HTSSB) was
formed by the City Council in 1994 to explore ways to develop more affordable housing in Eden
Prairie while improving linkages to transportation and social services. Specific tasks of the HTSSB
include:
• HTSSB developed the Eden Prairie HOPE demonstration program.
• Develop policies that facilitate affordable housing developments.
• Integrate the planning of affordable housing projects with a human service perspective.
• Expand family self-sufficiency opportunities to lower-income residents.
• Explore ways to link jobs with housing.
The HTSSB also will explore ways to create more moderate-cost "starter" housing in Eden Prairie.
Although Eden Prairie has approved more than 500 moderate-cost townhouse units over the past
two years, the Board will attempt to facilitate the development of more moderate-cost single family
units. This can be achieved in part by allowing higher densities, platting smaller lots, and
encouraging creative subdivision patterns. The Board will help coordinate bringing together
developers, builders, and land owners interested in developing affordable housing projects.
Owners of large tracts of residential land outside the urban service area have shown an interest in
helping the City meet its Livable Communities obligations. However, few parcels are left for
residential development within the City's current urban service area. Opportunities for developing
new low or moderate cost housing in Eden Prairie are limited without expanding the MUSA as
proposed.
Special Needs Housing:
A six-unit duplex development for low-income adults effected by serious neurological conditions was
approved by the City in 1994. The Community Home Program, a nonprofit agency, is the developer.
The City contributed $17,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to help offset
land costs. The Minneapolis Community Development Agency is providing the financing through
revenue bond sales.
Livable Communities Action Plan 9
Eden Prairie also has two single family group homes for developmentally disabled adults that are
owned and operated by the State of Minnesota Department of Health. The homes were built on tax
forfeited property. Several other privately financed Group Homes for disabled residents exist in the
City in scattered locations.
Cluster Planning:
The City will explore using the "cluster planning" approach to expand affordable housing
opportunities in this area. City staff has discussed this concept with staff at the cities of Minnetonka
and Bloomington. Cluster planning appears to have some advantages in terms of pooling resources
between"dusters"of communities to address common issues. In practice, however, it will be difficult
to implement as various issues surface about how resources are allocated between communities.
There seems to be some agreement between these cities that a more effective and immediate way
to provide affordable housing is for the Metro HRA to expand its authority to own and manage
housing in partnership with cities. Two tools available to cities for housing development that require
or that provide more benefit from public ownership are Essential Function Bond Financing, and Low-
Income Housing Tax Credits.
On March 10, 1995, a meeting was held between the cities of Eden Prairie, Minnetonka, and
Bloomington, the Dakota County HRA, and the Metro Council represented by its Chair, Curt Johnson,
and staff Chuck Ballentine. The purpose of the meeting was to introduce the idea of the Metro HRA
taking a more active role in developing affordable housing in the suburbs. The Dakota HRA has been
very successful in using the above-mentioned tools to develop, own, and manage affordable housing
developments in partnership with various communities in their County. These programs were
presented to the Metro Council by Dakota County staff at this meeting.
Comments from Curt Johnson suggest the Metro Council is reluctant to increase its involvement in
owning housing, but indicated these ideas will continue to be discussed. The City of Eden Prairie
suggested that if the Metro Council expands its authority to require cities to meet regional housing
goals that they provide the tools needed to achieve these goals. The Dakota County model is a good
example of what Metro HRA could do to help communities like Eden Prairie develop affordable
housing.
Section 8 Voucher Initiative:
In an effort to insure that more rental housing projects accept Section 8 Vouchers in Eden Prairie,
the City now requires that any apartment or rental townhouse development seeking Housing
Revenue Bonds or any other type of City financing agree in writing to designate up to 10% of their
total units for persons using Section 8 Vouchers. Owners of existing projects seeking approval from
the City to refinance Housing Revenue Bonds will be obligated to the same terms. This should help
reverse the growing trend of apartment owners choosing to opt out of the Section 8 program
completely. However, the reason most often cited by property owners for opting out of the Program
is the Federal take one take all requirement, which in some cases leads to market developments
converting to 100% Section 8. This requirement is essentially creating greater concentrations of poor
in certain communities,which is contrary to recent policies adopted by HUD, the City of Minneapolis,
and the Metro Council.
Livable Communities Action Plan 10
11
Current and Future Low-Income Housing Proposals:
The City is working with a development partnership between the Cornerstone Group and Real Estate
Equities on a 32-unit townhouse development affordable to low-income families. This project, which
was approved in February 1996,will serve as a prototype for future housing projects in Eden Prairie
in terms of site selection and financing arrangement. The City has identified various rental housing
sites that have good proximity to commercial services, schools, parks, transit routes, and other
natural amenities, and also transition well from single family neighborhoods. This information is
shared with developers seeking sites for affordable housing projects. Because these sites are often
guided for commercial related uses, the land costs are substantially higher than typical residential
sites. The City must therefore consider writing-down the land costs for these projects in order for
them to work financially.
Cornerstones' proposal involves various forms of public financing including:
1. Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (MHFA)
2. Tax Increment Financing (City of Eden Prairie)
3. CDBG funding
The development is designed for families with individual entrances to primarily three and four
bedroom units, tuck-under garages, and play lots for children. The rents will be affordable to families
with incomes at or below 50% of median for the metro area. City guidelines requires all affordable
rental housing developments be 32 units or less per site to avoid concentration issues.
Several other developers also are seeking sites for similar housing projects. A MUSA expansion into
southwest Eden Prairie will provide opportunities for integrating affordable rental and ownership
housing into large PUD's at more reasonable land prices and with less public subsidy.
Another approach supported by the City is to have 10-15% of all units within existing rental housing
developments be affordable to very low-income families and integrated throughout each site. The
challenge is finding ways to subsidize rents enough to make them affordable to this market. Section
8 Project and Tenant-Based rental assistance is available on a limited basis through the Metro HRA.
Eden Prairie is willing to accept additional Section 8 Vouchers through the proposed settlement of
the housing discrimination law suit between Metro HRA and Legal Aid Society. Our primary goal with
respect to this form of housing is to insure a linkage to a self-sufficiency effort.
Other financing Tools
The Section 8 Rental Housing Assistance Program is administered by the Metro HRA for the City
of Eden Prairie. This is a tenant-based Program where eligible tenants receive subsidies directly
from the HRA through the issuance of Section 8 Certificates and Vouchers. This allows holders of
Certificates and Vouchers to live in market-rate apartment buildings by having part of their rent paid
through the Program. Certificate and Voucher holders pay 30% of their income toward rent with the
balance paid by the Metro HRA. Thirty-six units are currently rented to persons with Certificates or
Vouchers in Eden Prairie.
The City HRA is continually examining ways to develop additional low-income rental housing and
starter single family attached/detached housing in Eden Prairie. Some development methods and
Livable Communities Action Plan 11
financing tools being considered to facilitate these projects, include: Tax Increment Financing-
Interest Rate Reduction programs, land acquisition/write-downs, Housing Revenue Bond financing,
Low-Income Housing Tax Credits, Essential Function Bonds, MHFA Below Market Mortgage
programs, allowing higher densities, and promoting creative subdivision design.
Eden Prairie Center Tax Increment Financing District
The City Council has granted preliminary approval to a TIF Redevelopment District to help finance
the renovation of the Eden Prairie Center. The TIF district is also expected to generate about
$400,000 annually in funds dedicated for housing purposes. These funds, which will generate about
$4,000,000 total over ten years, may be used to implement a rental subsidy program within existing
apartment developments. A program is being discussed where up to 10% of the units in any one
apartment development would be eligible for rental write-downs to help make the units affordable
to persons with incomes below 60% of the median income for the metro area. The details of this
program will be worked over the next six months.
Examination of Local Controls
Review Process:
The Community Development staff reviews its development review process on a yearly basis,
making changes where necessary and appropriate. A land development application booklet has
been used for the last ten years which the City believes results in a fair, efficient, and user-friendly
process. The land development application contains a list of all meeting dates, a flow chart and
written narrative explaining the review process in "laymen's terms" and includes a list of all of the
technical information required for a project review. It also includes the City's Livable Communities
Goals and Strategies so that all developers know what is expected of them in terms of helping Eden
Prairie's meet its housing obligations.
The City's Development Review Committee (represented by all City Departments) meets on a weekly
basis to review development proposals. Developers are notified one week after an application
regarding a need for information and/or plan changes. Projects that involve multiple requests such
as Guide Plan changes, Planned Unit Developments, Rezoning, Site Plan Review, and Preliminary
Plats are processed simultaneously. Holding neighborhood meetings prior to Planning Commission
and City Council review, and working with City staff to resolve development issues prior to the public
hearing process helps ensure that projects can be reviewed within a 60-day time frame.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA DATE:
July 2, 1996
SECTION: Report of City Manager
DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: ITEM NO. XI.B.1.
Update on Negotiations for Renewal of
Administration Cable TV Franchise
Requested Council Action:
Review and grant preliminary approval of the terms and conditions regarding the major
issues involved with the Cable T.V. Franchise renewal with Paragon Cable, and set a
Public Hearing for August 2, 1996.
Background:
Paragon Cable has requested an early renewal of its Cable T.V. franchise with each of the
5 cities included in the Southwest Suburban Cable Commission (SSCC). In return,
Paragon would make a major investment ($25-30 million) to upgrade the system and add
channel capacity.
Over the past several months the SSCC negotiating committee (5 City
Managers/Assistants) have worked out proposed language on the major issues involved
with the renewal. On Wednesday evening, June 26, the SSCC approved the language
(attached) and recommended its' approval by the 5 member City Councils. Each city will
be required to conduct a Public Hearing before final approval of the franchise renewal.
The SSCC staff is now in the process of developing the actual renewal document which
each City will need to approve. The Eden Prairie Public Hearing will be scheduled for
August 2.

TO: Southwest Suburban Cable Commission
City Managers' Committee
FROM: Staff
SUBJECT: Franchise Renewal Process
DATE: June 4, 1996
Below we have outlined the language agreed upon regarding the major issues outlined by the
City Managers and Paragon Cable.
PUBLIC ACCESS
A. Public Access Channels.
Paragon Cable will continue to provide four public, educational and government
(PEG) access channels.
The City may request a State-of-the-Art review at any time between the sixth year
anniverzry and the twelfth year anniversary of the granting of this Franchise.
In conducting a State-of-the-Art review, the City shall undertake the following
process:
(a) The City and the Grantee shall undertake a review of the then existing
Cable System. This review shall, at a minimum, take into account the
following: (1) characteristics of the existing System; (2) the State-of-the-
Art; (3) additional benefits provided to customers by the State-of-the-Art;
(4) the market place demand for the State-of-the-Art; and (5) the financial
feasibility of the State-of-the-Art taking into account associated rate
increases, and the premature retirement of assets.
(b) The City shall hold at least two (2) public hearings to enable the
general public and Grantee to comment and to present evidence.
(c) For the purposes of this Section the term "State-of-the-
Art" shall mean equipment or facilities that: (1) are readily available with
reasonable delivery schedules from two (2) or more sources of supply; (2)
have the capability to perform the intended functions demonstrated within
communities with similar characteristic (including, but not necessarily
limited to, population, density, subscriber penetration, etc.) under actual
operating conditions for purposes other than tests or experimentation; and
2
1�
(3) are technically and economically feasible to implement. The term
"State-of-the-Art" shall not include equipment or facilities associated with
or dedicated to the general public, educational or governmental access or
telecommunication services.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the City may not undertake
a State-of-the-Art review at any time the Grantee is deemed subject to
effective competition pursuant to then applicable state or federal law.
B. Studio/Facilities.
Paragon Cable will provide one large facility containing one studio with the
current square footage of the Eden Prairie studio for public, educational and
governmental access which will be located in Eden Prairie. The studio will have
the capacity for audience participation. The facility will include two separate
editing suites, storage space and the entire facility will be wheelchair accessible.
The facility shall have more hours than currently provided, including regular
hours during the week, weekend hours and some week night hours.
C. Equipment.
No agreements have been reached on the equipment which will be necessary in
the new studio.
D. Funding for PEG Access.

access operating expenses collectively for the 5 member cities of the SWSCC.
These expenses will be itemized on customers bills. This amount will provide the
following services: (a) labor costs; (b) educational consultant; (c) facilities and
utilities; (d) access expenses; and (e) educational expenses. Paragon will no
longer be required to provide the access news show.
E. Public Access Users.
If the cities request, Paragon Cable will work with the cities to charge a nominal
fee to users of the PEG access facility.
H. CUSTOMER FOCUS
A. Commercial Channels.
Grantee agrees to upgrade its system to a capacity of 750 MHz which is the
equivalent of 112 6 MHz analog video channels. However, Paragon will initially
use the 54 MHz-550 MHz section of the system to deliver analog signals and
reserve the 550 MHz to 750 MHz section for future applications. Stated in terms

•
of 6 MHz analog channels the 54 MHz to 550 MHz of the system has capacity
for 79 channels. The present system has capacity for 58 analog channels.
B. Social Contract.
The Social Contract between Time Warner Cable and the Federal
Communications Commission is attached hereto as Exhibit A. It is expressly
understood by the City and the Grantee that the Social Contract is made a part
hereof for informational purposes only. Inclusion of the Social Contract by
reference is not intended to nor shall it create any right of the City to enforce any
provisions of the Social Contract directly or indirectly under the terms of this
Franchise. The parties expressly acknowledge and understand that the Social
Contract and the obligations contained are enforceable exclusively by the FCC as
more fully set forth in the Social Contract.
C. Technological Changes.

III. CITY GOVERNMENT
A. Franchise Fees.
The City Managers and Paragon have tentatively agreed to a 5% franchise fee.
Both parties, however, are negotiating additional language which would provide
a "level playing field" for other wired competitors who offer a competitive video
service.
B. Government Access Channels.
Paragon Cable will maintain the current government access channel.
C. Override of the Government Access Channel.
Paragon Cable agrees to provide the capability such that the City, from its City
Hall, can switch its government access channel in the following ways:
1) insert live council meetings from City Hall;
2) replay government access programming from City Hall;
3) transmit character generated programming;
4) schedule for Grantee to replay City-provided tapes in pre-arranged
time slot on the government access channel; and
5) switch to C-SPAN 2 or other comparable programming provided
by cable operator at any time when not carrying live or taped
government access programming.
Whatever programming the City determines will be carried on its government
access channel within the City.
D. Construction Requirements.
Paragon Cable shall, at least sixty (60) days prior to commencing the System
upgrade for an area of the system, provide notice to representatives of the City
of the following: (a) The nature of the work to be undertaken; (b) the estimated
schedule for said work; (c) steps to be taken to minimize disruption to public; and
(d) steps to be taken to notify the customers of said work.
5
IV. EDUCATIONAL NEEDS
A. Educational Access Channel.
Paragon and the City Managers have agreed to retain the two current educational
access channels.
B. Service to the Schools and Government Buildings.
Service to Public Schools and Public Buildings
(a) The Grantee shall continue to provide one outlet of Basic Service, the Cable
Programming Service Tier and one converter, if needed, to those facilities
presently served. Service to public schools and municipally owned buildings
constructed or occupied after the effective date of this Franchise shall be similarly
provided subject to the building being located within 200 feet of the Grantee's
then existing System.
(b) If facility is over 200 feet from Grantee's then existing system, the school or
municipality shall be responsible for all equipment, construction costs and
additional wiring beyond the first 200 feet that are the Grantee's responsibility.
(c) All internal wiring cost beyond the one outlet that Grantee agrees to provide
shall be the responsibility of the school or municipality.
(d)The financial responsibility for any additional converters desired by the school
or municipality shall be their responsibility.
Service to Private Schools
Grantee shall provide installation to private schools within 200 feet of plant. A
private school is defined as any private secondary school that receives funding
pursuant to Title 1 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965.
Under the social contract, cable service shall be provided for free to private
schools through the year 2000.
C. Cable Nodes System Connect.
Grantee will locate its "nodes" near schools where possible without in Grantee's
opinion comprising the engineering design of the system. Cities will provide
maps showing the location of the schools.
6
V. TECHNOLOGY
A. System Upgrade.
Grantee agrees to upgrade its system to a capacity of 750 MHz which is the
equivalent of 112-6 MHz analog video channels. However, Paragon will initially
use the 54 MHz-550 MHz section of the system to deliver analog signals and
reserve the 550 MHz to 750 MHz section for future applications. Stated in terms
of 6 MHz analog channels the 54 MHz to 550 MHz of the system has capacity
for 79 channels. The upgraded system will be two-way. Time Warner will
complete the upgrade in three (3) years.
B. Level Playing Field Provision.
See attached pages.
These are the major issues which were agreed upon between Paragon Cable and the City
Managers. If there is an issue that you believe should be addressed and you do not see it here,
please contact Staff as soon as possible.

DRAFT "LEVEL PLAYING FIELD LANGUAGE"
(a) Any additional or subsequent cable franchise granted to cable or non-cable companies
who may compete with Grantee within the franchise area will be granted only on
substantially similar terms and conditions as this Franchise and shall not contain less
burdensome jzfr more favorable terms than those imposed on Grantee by this Franchise.
eniru
(b) The City and Grantee agree that all franchise provisions that Grantee is subject to are
effective against the Grantee only if such requirements are applied as well to any and all
wired competitors of the Grantee within the franchise area. For purposes of this
subsection, a wired competitor shall include any video provider offering 12 channels of
programming at least one of which is a broadcast signal, which uses wires, coaxial
cables, optical fiber or other similar technology and places or attaches such wires, cables
or fibers on public property or public utility facilities. This definition of wired
competitor would not include a Satellite Master Antenna Television system located
wholly on private property within a building.
(c) Any franchise provision or other regulation enforced by the City upon Grantee which is
not also imposed upon Grantee(s) wired competitors, shall be void as to Grantee, subject
to the following requirements:
(1) The existence of a wired competitor shall not relieve Grantee of an obligation to
provide an annual minimum franchise fee of 2% of Gross Revenues. If the wired
competitor obtains a cable franchise which requires it to pay a franchise fee or
substantially similar fee of an equivalent amount to the City, the State of
Minnesota or any other governmental entity which is less than 5% of Gross
Revenues, the City shall reduce Grantee's franchise fee to the same level,but in
no event less than 2% of Gross Revenues. If the wired competitor does not
obtain a cable franchise, but it is required to pay a franchise fee or substantially
similar fee to the City, State of Minnesota or any other governmental entity, then
Grantee shall pay the same fee, but in no event less than 2% of Gross Revenues.
If the wired competitor is not required to pay a franchise fee or similar fee to the
City or the State of Minnesota, then the 2% minimum franchise fee shall apply
to Grantee for all homes and customers who are passed by the wired competitor's
system. If the wired competitor discontinues providing multichannel video
services, the Grantee's franchise fee shall immediately return to its original level.
(2) The existence of a wired competitor shall not relieve Grantee of an obligation to
provide at least one channel for public, educational and governmental access
programming. If the wired competitor obtains a cable franchise which requires
it to provide less than four (4) public, educational and governmental access
channels, the City shall, upon the effective date of the subsequent franchise,
reduce Grantee's requirement to the same number of channels, but in no event
shall Grantee provide less than one (1) public, educational and governmental
- 1 -

access channel. If the wired competitor does not obtain a cable franchise, but it
is required to provide less than four (4) public, educational and governmental
access channels, or if the wired competitor is not required to provide any public,
educational or governmental access channels, then the City shall reduce the
number of access channels required of Grantee as follows:
(i) If the wired competitor passes less than 25% of the homes and
customers in the cities of Edina, Eden Prairie, Hopkins,
Minnetonka and Richfield, Grantee shall provide at least four (4)
public, educational and governmental access channels.
(ii) If the wired competitor passes 25% or more of the homes and
customers in the cities of Edina, Eden Prairie, Hopkins,
Minnetonka and Richfield, Grantee shall provide at least three (3)
public, educational and governmental access channels.
(iii) If the wired competitor passes 50% or more of the homes and
customers in the cities of Edina, Eden Prairie, Hopkins,
Minnetonka and Richfield, Grantee shall provide at least one (1)
public, educational and governmental access channel.
If the wired competitor discontinues providing multichannel video services, the
Grantee's requirement for the provision of public, educational and governmental
access channels shall immediately return to its original level.
(3) If a wired competitor obtains a cable franchise which requires it to provide less
funding for equipment or facilities for public, educational and governmental
access or less facilities and equipment than Grantee, the City shall reduce the
Grantee's requirement for funding for public, educational and governmental
access and facilities and equipment to the level of the wired competitor. If the
wired competitor does not obtain a cable franchise, but it is required to provide
less funding for public, educational and governmental access or less equipment
or facilities than Grantee, or if the wired competitor is not required to provide
any funding for public, educational or governmental access or equipment or
facilities, then the City shall reduce the Grantee's required funding as follows:
(i) If the wired competitor passes less than 25% of the homes and customers
in the cities of Edina, Eden Prairie, Hopkins, Minnetonka and Richfield,
Grantee shall continue to provide the same level of funding for public,
educational and governmental access facilities and equipment as indicated
in this Ordinance.
(ii) If the wired competitor passes 25% or more of the homes and customers
in the cities of Edina, Eden Prairie, Hopkins, Minnetonka and Richfield,
- 2 -
10 D-
the City shall reduce the funding and, equipment and facilities
requirements of the Grantee by 30%.
(iii) If the wired competitor passes 50% or more of the homes and customers
in the cities of Edina, Eden Prairie, Hopkins, Minnetonka and Richfield,
the City shall eliminate the funding and, equipment and facilities
requirements for public, educational and governmental access funding.
If the wired competitor discontinues providing multichannel video services, the
Grantee's requirement for the provision of funding and, equipment and facilities
for public, educational and governmental access and, facilities and equipment
shall immediately return to its original level.
(4) For all other franchise provisions imposed upon Grantee in this Ordinance, if a
wired competitor obtains a cable franchise which does not require it to meet the
same franchise provision, the City shall not require Grantee to meet that franchise
provision. If the wired competitor does not obtain a cable franchise and it is not
required to meet the same franchise provision, then the City shall relieve the
Grantee from that franchise provision as follows:
(i) If the wired competitor passes less than 50% of the homes and customers
in the cities of Edina, Eden Prairie, Hopkins, Minnetonka and Richfield,
Grantee shall continue to comply with the franchise provision.
(ii) If the wired competitor passes 50% or more of the homes and customers
in the cities of Edina, Eden Prairie, Hopkins, Minnetonka and Richfield,
the City shall not require Grantee to meet the franchise provision.
If the wired competitor discontinues providing multichannel video services, the
Grantee shall be required to meet the franchise provision.
(d) If Grantee is aware of a franchise provision imposed by the City upon Grantee which is
not also imposed by the City or the State of Minnesota upon a wired competitor, it shall
identify the wired competitor, including the basis for stating that the entity is a "wired
competitor" as defined above; it shall identify the franchise provision in question; and
it shall provide this information to the City. Within ninety (90) days, the City shall: (1)
pass a resolution declaring such franchise provision void as to Grantee; (2) declare why
the entity in question is not a wired competitor; or (3) state that the "wired competitor"
is subject to a requirement that substantially duplicates the franchise provision. During
the above process, the Grantee shall continue to meet any and all requirements in
question. If the City declares such requirement void as to Grantee, the City is not liable
for Grantee's past compliance with the requirement, including any past fees remitted to
the City.

(e) If the City and Grantee are unable to agree upon the operation of this section of the
Ordinance within ninety (90) days after one party provides notice to the other party, the
parties may agree to enter mediation.

DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION:

Chris Enger Authorization to Engage Professional Brokerage Services
John Frane to Lease retail space in the Liquor Store No. 4 Building.
Don Uram
Requested Council Action:
The Staff recommends that the Council take the following action:
1. Authorize staff to enter into an agreement with United Properties for professional brokerage
services to lease approximately 7,120 square feet of retail space in the Liquor Store No. 4
(next to Cub Foods)building.
Background:
On June 12,the City Council authorized Staff to enter into an agreement with Michael J. Wilkus Architects
for professional architectural services to design Liquor Store No. 4 (next to Cub Foods), order the
preparation of plans and specifications and bidding the project. Since then, the Staff and architect have
developed the plans that meet the requirements of the liquor store. Based on a building size of 13,040
square feet,the liquor store would occupy 5,720 square feet with the remaining 7,120 square feet leased to
a compatible use such as a video rental store.
In Spring 1995, the Staff solicited leasing proposals from various brokerage companies (e.g., United
Properties,C.B. Commercial,Welsh Companies)based on the understanding that we would build the liquor
store and associated retail space in 1995. This project was delayed while CSM Corporation and the Eden
Prairie Presbyterian Church developed and had approved the plans for the relocation of the church. This is
expected to occur in Summer 1997. While this was taking place,the Staff has not been actively marketing
the site.
Now that this project is underway, the City needs to lease the remaining retail space to help pay the debt
service and cover operating expenses. To lease the building in the most effective manner, Staff
recommends that the City list the building with a commercial real estate broker that focuses on leasing small
"speciality"retail space.
Based on the qualifications and cost of services provided of the companies submitting proposals,Staff would
recommend United Properties. United Properties will lease the retail space at a cost of$3.00 per square foot
which is consistent with industry standards. The term of the Brokerage Agreement is six months. They
expect to have the building fully leased within this time. Once authorized,United Properties will begin work
immediately.

Dear Don:
I enjoyed meeting with you again this morning and continuing our discussions on your proposed
new project. We are grateful for the opportunity and the invitation to explore this opportunity
with you.
As we discussed this morning, we like the concept that you have presented and would like to
pursue the leasing assignment on your behalf. We anticipate having the project fully leased by the
end of the calendar year 1996 in time for a spring 1997 opening. If all were to go well, the
timetable could perhaps be moved forward a few months.
Our services would include working with you and your staff in the development of the plans for
the project, developing a target list of desired tenants, developing marketing materials and
negotiating leases.
I have enclosed for your review a listing agreement for a period of six months according to the
terms that we discussed this morning. We have proposed to do the leasing for a compensation to
be based upon $3.00 per square foot if we procure the tenant. There will be no additional fee if a
co-broker is involved in procuring the tenant. In a separate but related matter, we have presented
the project to our construction/development division for their consideration. We will deal with
the construction issues and any opportunities in that regard at a later date.
We are looking forward to working with you on this project. Please call if you have any
questions at all regarding the enclosed listing agreement. Thanks again for your thoughtful
consideration.
Best regards,
Kent Lilley

Public Works Award Contract for Water Treatment Plant Expansion
Eugene A. Dietz 41•
Requested Action:
Adopt a motion awarding the Water Treatment Plant Expansion project to Knutson Construction
Company in the amount of $20,193,000. Plus $11,000 for the add alternate for a one-year
service and maintenance contract for the plant control system. This brings the total award to
$20,204,000.
Background:
The attached letter from Black & Veatch summarizes the six bids that were received for the
project. The low bid from Knutson Construction Company compares very favorably to the
$20,000,000 construction budget that was established in 1994 for the project. Since the budget
was established, we have added re-roofing of the existing building to the project along with an
engine generator. For comparative purposes, the following tabulation is presented:
$20,193,000 Bid from Knutson Construction Company
$ 11,000 Add Alternate B
-($ 324,000) Engine Generator cost included in bid
-($ 413,000) Re-roofing existing building included in bid
$ 200.000 Additional cost for public education space
$19,667,000 Comparable to 1994 budget
Since the re-roofing is actually a deferred item from the Operations Budget the net result is a
contract under $20,000,000.
We are recommending that the engine generator be awarded as part of the contract. The
alternative to spending $324,000 for the engine generator is to expend $114,000 for a dual
electric feed to the water plant from NSP. The net increase in project cost of $210,000,
including maintenance and operating costs, can be amortized over a 4.8-year period based on
reduced demand charges from NSP. This means that we will get a reduced rate because we can
shed power demand at the request of NSP.
Alternate A is a deduct alternate that provides for remodeling a portion of the existing Public
Works Maintenance Facility into space for the Utility Operation. The contract amount includes
this alternate and is recommended for award, but may have to be deleted at a future date
depending on negotiations with MnDOT. We have not agreed on an acquisition price for our
maintenance facility, but we have had several conversations about the potential of buying back
the southern portion of the building lying outside of the TH212 right-of-way at salvage value.
We would expect that this decision can be made by year end.

Page 2 of 2
Financial Issues:
The cost for this expansion project are in line with the budget estimates used for the financial
analysis of the project. Bonds will likely be sold in 1997 and the revenue stream from Water
Access Charges (WAC), trunk assessments and the fixed portion of the utility bill will be
adequate to finance the project.
Other Issues:
Included in the attachments is letter from the 2nd low bidder pointing out a bid irregularity by
Knutson. We have reviewed this and find that the issue has no impact on the bid outcome and
further the specifications state:
• "Owner also reserves the right to waive informalities."
• "If the contract is to be awarded, it will be awarded to the lowest bidder whose
evaluation by Owner indicates to Owner that the award will be in the best interest of
Owner."

Mr. Gene Dietz
Director of Public Works
City of Eden Prairie
8080 Mitchell Road
Eden Prairie, MN 55344-2230
Dear Gene:
This letter summarizes the results of the bid opening held at City
Center on June 26, 1996 for the Water Treatment Plant Improvements
project and provides our recommendation regarding the award of this
contract.
The City received the following six bids:
Contractor Bid Amount
Knutson Construction Company $20,193,000
Penn-Co Construction Inc. $20,559,000
Bor-Son Construction, Inc. $20,695,000
Adolfson & Peterson, Inc. $20,814,000
M.A. Mortensen Company $21,270,000
Shaw-Lundquist Associates, Inc. $21,880,000
The bids represent a very competitive bidding situation with a bid
spread of approximately eight percent between all bidders and only
two percent between the three lowest bids. The low bid from Knutson
is below the Engineer's Opinion of Probable Construction Cost of
$20,385,000. A copy of the Bid Tabulation summary is enclosed.
Knutson's deductive amount bid for the work associated with the
Utilities Garage is lower than our opinion of cost; however, due to
the nature of this work and the small percentage of the overall
project, the bid is not out of line. As discussed, this amount would
only be accepted if the negotiations with the Department of
Transportation were unsuccessful , eliminating the potential reuse of
the building.
Knutson's bid for the one year service contract for the plant control
system seems reasonable and the City may want to consider accepting
this alternative as part of the award. If it is later decided that
the service contract is unnecessary, it can easily be deleted by
change order. If the amount is not accepted as part of the award,
the cost may increase if it is later desired to add it.

July 2, 1996
Knutson's adjustment unit price bid for the removal of unsuitable
material is well below our opinion of cost and will only be a factor
if more material needs to be removed than currently anticipated.
The costs associated with the engine generator and the reroofing are
in line with our opinion of cost and should serve as reasonable
representations for your budgeting purposes.
The Certificate of Compliance with the State of Minnesota Department
of Human Rights was not provided by five of the six bidders including
Knutson. All other necessary bid items were received. We contacted
the Department of Human Rights and were informed that Knutson does
hold a Certificate of Compliance which is valid until July of 1998.
Knutson did submit a copy of their Certificate of Compliance to us
the day after the bid opening. We believe this irregularity should
not be cause for rejection of the bid since the required certificate
was in force and would have no bearing on the outcome of the bid
price.
Knutson also failed to indicate a single supplier for several items
on the questionnaire. Their bid runners erroneously crossed out
complete lines on the questionnaire; however, some lines had more
than one supplier listed. Immediately after the bid opening we
requested that Knutson representatives confirm which suppliers were
intended to be listed, which they did by calling back to their
office. A copy of their complete questionnaire is enclosed. We
believe this irregularity should also not be cause for rejection of
their bid. However, we recommend that you consult the City Attorney
on both irregularities.
Our initial review of the equipment listed in the questionnaire
indicates that there should be no problems in meeting the
requirements of the specifications.
The financial status of Knutson was reviewed by obtaining a Dun &
Bradstreet report and, while the available information was limited,
it appears that their financial strength is good for a construction
company and that they have the financial capabilities required to
complete this project.
We contacted numerous references provided by Knutson, all of which
indicated they performed well and the projects were completed to
their satisfaction. Knutson's company experience and the experience
of their proposed staff in water treatment plant related construction
is limited to a few relatively small projects. However, they do
have experience in managing large projects and constructing
4

facilities, such as hospitals, that involve sophisticated equipment
and instrumentation installation. We also contacted references for
their project manager and superintendent and received favorable
comments on both. Knutson's proposed mechanical and electrical
subcontractors for the project are NewMech Companies and Parsons
Electric. Both subcontractors have experience in water treatment
related projects.
Based on our evaluation, we feel that Knutson Construction has the
capabilities to complete this project to your satisfaction.
Therefore, we recommend that the project be awarded to Knutson
Construction. If you have any questions, please contact us.
Very truly yours,
BLACK & VEATCH

Re: Eden Prairie Water Treatment Plant
Bid Date: June 26, 1996
Dear Mr. Carlson:
We are aware that Knutson Construction's bid form was not completely/correctly filled out. The
specifications Section 00100 and Addendum#2, clearly indicate that the bid form and the related
questionnaire must be filled out in its entirety, with the equipment questionnaire naming only one
manufacturer. Also, at the prebid meeting it was stressed by Black& Veatch that the specified
procedures were to be strictly followed.
We are of the understanding that Knutson Construction did not finalize their equipment supplier
questionnaire until later in the day on June 26, 1996. However, even an hour or two provides
Knutson with an unfair bid advantage. The equipment items in question are of high value and the
prices can change significantly in short periods of time.
We are of the opinion that Knutson's bid is non-responsive and that Penn-Co is the lowest
responsible and responsive bidder. Therefore, we should be awarded the above referenced
project.
Please let us know how you plan to handle this situation.
Sincerely,
Fred Dyck '
Regional Manager
