Regarding item E, Tyra-Lukens said she did not believe the Council directed that
street names had to be approved by the Heritage Preservation Commission, rather
the direction was that the Commission's role was to suggest names.
Councilmembers and Staff discussed how the Heritage Preservation Commission
might be brought into the street naming process without unduly prolonging the
development review process. The consensus was that the Commission would
continue to have input through the Staff Development Review Committee, with
a review of the situation in six months.
For item I, Tyra-Lukens questioned the use of general funds and replenishing cash
park fees with general funds. Lambert said Staff and the Parks Commission have
recommended the use of general funds, noting that they will be replenished at the
budget hearings next year.
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Case, to approve items A-D, amended
item E, and items F-I on the Consent Calendar. Motion carried unanimously.
City Council Minutes - 3 - March 7, 1995
V. PUBLIC HEARINGS/MEETINGS
A. BRYANT POINTE TWO by Dean Holasek. Request for Zoning District Change
from Rural to R1-13.5 and Preliminary Plat of 1.15 acres into 2 lots and road
right-of-way. Location: Rowland Road and Orchard Hill. (Ordinance 8-95 for
Zoning District from Rural to R1-13.5 and Resolution 95-42 for Preliminary
Plat)
Dean Holasek reviewed the project.
Enger said the Planning Commission reviewed this project on February 13, 1995,
and recommended approval on a unanimous vote, subject to the recommendations
of the Staff Report of February 10, 1995. Lambert said the Parks Commission
reviewed the project at the March 6, 1995 meeting and recommended approval,
subject to the recommendations of the Staff Reports of February 10 and February
27, 1995.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to close the Public
Hearing; to approve 1st Reading of Ordinance 8-92 for Zoning District Change
from Rural to R1-13.5; to adopt Resolution 95-42 for Preliminary Plat Approval;
and to direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating
Commission and Staff recommendations. Motion carried unanimously.
B. BEARPATH CLUBHOUSE by Bearpath Limited Partnership. Request for
Planned Unit Development Concept Review on 435 acres, Planned Unit
Development District Review on 10.2 acres, Zoning District Amendment in the
Rural Zoning District on 10.2 acres and Site Plan Review on 10.2 acres.
Location: 18100 Bearpath Trail. (Resolution 95-43 for PUD Concept Review
and Ordinance 9-95 for PUD District Review and Zoning District
Amendment)
John Vogelbacher, representing Bearpath, reviewed the project.
Enger said the Planning Commission recommended approval of the project on a
unanimous vote at the February 13, 1995 meeting, subject to the
recommendations of the Staff Report of February 10, 1995. Lambert said the
Parks Commission also recommended approval on a unanimous vote at the March
6, 1995, meeting, subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report of February
10, 1995.
Councilmembers expressed concern about the number of trees that will be lost
because of the parking lot. Vogelbacher said the project was actually designed
in the field in order to save many of the significant trees.
City Council Minutes - 4 - March 7, 1995
Councilmembers questioned whether the trails through the project hook up with
the public trails and if part of the request is for a waiver for the entry sign.
Enger said the sign waiver is part of the PUD process. Vogelbacher said the
trails shown on the plans are cart paths, and there are no public trails through the
clubhouse portion of the development.
Councilmembers expressed concern about setting a precedent by granting a waiver
for a sign that is larger than is normally allowed, that proponent did not simply
design a sign that would fit within the size allowed by the sign ordinance, and
that drawings of the proposed sign were not included with the project material
when a waiver is being requested for the sign as part of the project. Enger said
this is not a large issue based on the size of the project and the relatively small
number of signs to be placed in the project, noting that a similar waiver was
granted for Eden Prairie Center. Vogelbacher displayed an elevation of the
proposed sign. Enger reviewed the details of the size restrictions and how this
design deviates from those restrictions.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Case, to close the Public Hearing; to
approve 1st Reading of Ordinance 9-95 for Planned Unit Development District
Review and Zoning District Amendment on 10.2 acres; to adopt Resolution 95-43
for Planned Unit Development Concept Review; and to direct Staff to prepare a
Development Agreement incorporating Commission and Staff recommendations
Motion carried unanimously.
Councilmembers requested that if a waiver is requested as part of a future project
appropriate drawings be included with the packets.
C. RESOLUTION 95-44 APPROVING PROTECTED USE OF FUNDS FOR
YEAR 1995 URBAN HENNEPIN COUNTY COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT FUNDS AND AUTHORIZING ITS
SUBMITTAL
Lindahl noted there is a bill before the U.S. Congress proposing to rescind some
of the CDBG funding, so some of these funds could be cut back.
Councilmembers questioned how many families will be assisted by the rental
housing project, what would happen if some of the CDBG funds were rescinded,
and whether there was any discussion of setting aside some of the day care funds
for emergencies. Lindahl said a 32-unit project is under consideration, that the
Council would review the situation if funds are rescinded in order to determine
how to handle any cuts, and that, if the amount needed for emergencies can be
identified, we could reallocate a portion for the Eden Prairie HOPE program.
City Council Minutes - 5 - March 7, 1995
Councilmembers questioned the amount set aside for transportation and how that
amount was arrived at. Lindahl said the Human Rights & Services Commission
had concerns about the need for expanded transportation services for the elderly
and low income residents, and this amount was the remainder of the total funds
available after the requests were received. He said they will probably discuss the
transportation issue with Southwest Metro.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Pidcock, to close the Public Hearing; and
to adopt Resolution 95-44 approving the 1995 Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) activities as recommended by the Human Rights & Services
Commission.

She encouraged attendance at a meeting of the various local governments and the
Minnetonka School District on March 15, 1995 at the Minnetonka Community
Center.
Councilmembers discussed how this initiative compares with the Youth At Risk
program in Eden Prairie and asked if this was also being presented to the Eden
Prairie School District. Callison said she did not believe it was being presented

Case said he would like to see a discussion of the process used to appoint
members of the Boards and Commissions prior to the December 19th
workshop on the Appointment Process.
Tyra-Lukens said she would like to have a second session on the City
Budget in order to talk about the process Jullie said the session planned
for April 25 was scheduled in response to the budget of last fall and the
freezing of$400,000 in appropriations. He said another session could be
scheduled to discuss the whole budget process.
Pidcock said she has schedule conflicts with the April 25, May 6 and June
20 dates.
C. REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF PARKS. RECREATION & NATURAL
RESOURCES
City Council Minutes - 7 - March 7, 1995
1. Recommendation regarding Proposal for Center for the Arts
Lambert said one proposal was received in response to the Request for
Proposal for operating a center for the arts in Eden Prairie. As outlined
in the Staff Memorandum of January 20, 1995, to the Arts Commission
reviewing the one proposal received, Staff made six recommendations
regarding renovation of the Boyce house for use as an Art Center,
conducting a citywide survey, and funding for the operation of the Art
Center. Lambert said the Arts Commission supported the first five Staff
recommendations and will consider the sixth recommendation after their
Strategic Planning Retreat on March 11th.
Councilmembers expressed concern about the issues raised regarding
classes offered. Lambert said they would like to provide a variety of
programs for citizens; however, the private group has the gallery as their
main focus, with programs offered on the side. He said the survey should
help provide input as to what citizens want from the facility.
Councilmembers questioned whether the recommendation is for a two-year
trial, if there will be a formal proposal forthcoming about use of the
Boyce property, and whether the proposal is for the City to fund the
renovation of the building. Lambert said the input they received from
surrounding communities indicate that we should have a good idea after
two years whether it is what we want. He said Staff is recommending that
a final proposal not be developed until after the survey is completed and
that we authorize the plans and specifications for the facility in order to
get some cost estimates without actually committing to the construction.
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to receive the Staff
Report of January 20, 1995 regarding the Center for the Arts and to direct
implementation in accordance with Recommendations 1-5 thereof.
Motion carried unanimously.
2. Approve Purchase Agreement for Peter George Property
Lambert said Staff has drafted a purchase agreement for the purchase of
the Peter George property. The closing date is March 15, 1995.
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to approve
Resolution 95-45 authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to execute the
Purchase Agreement for the Peter George property and authorizing the
commencement of proceedings under eminent domain if the Purchase
Agreement is not agreed upon. Motion carried unanimously.

Administration-- Resolution Setting a Public Hearing for the
C. Dawson Proposed Transfer of Ownership of Paragon Cable IV.B
Requested Action:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a Resolution requiring a public hearing regarding the
proposed transfer of ownership of Paragon Cable.
Background:
Earlier this year, KBLCOM Inc. announced its intention to sell its cablesystem properties, which includes
Paragon Cable, to Time Warner, Inc.
The Southwest Suburban Cable Commission, and the corresponding cable franchise ordinance of the City,
allow for public hearing upon a notice of a proposal to transfer the ownership and thus the franchise for a
cable system. At its March 9, 1995 meeting, the SWSCC Operating Committee recommended that the
member cities conduct public hearings on the proposed transfer.
The City must approve a sale or transfer of the cable system to determine the effect of such a change on
Eden Prairie subscribers. During the time the preceding the hearing, the SWSCC administrator (the law
firm of Fredrikson & Byron, performed by Adrian Herbst and his staff) will be reviewing the legal,
financial, and technical qualifications of Time Warner.
The time and date for the proposed hearing is 7:30 p.m. April 18, 1995.

CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE
RESOLUTION NO.
REQUIRING A PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING THE PROPOSED
TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP OF PARAGON CABLE
WHEREAS, on or about February 21, 1995, the Southwest Suburban Cable
Commission of which the City of Eden Prairie is a member, received a letter and Form 394
from Paragon Cable, the current franchisee of the cable system in Eden Prairie, stating that
KBLCOM Incorporated which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Houston Industries and which
owns 100 percent of Nortel Cable Corporation and Countryside Investments, Inc. which own
Paragon Cable, would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Time Warner, Inc.; and
WHEREAS, the federal Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984, as amended by
the Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992, states that:
1) a cable operator cannot transfer a cable system unless it has held the system at
least thirty-six (36) months; and
2) if a cable transfer or sale requires franchising authority approval, the
franchising authority has 120 days from receipt of the Form 394 to approve
the sale; and
WHEREAS, the Minnesota Cable Communications Act and Article XII, Section 1,
Subsection B of the cable franchise ordinance for the City of Eden Prairie state that a
franchising authority which receives a written request for approval of a sale or transfer shall
answer in writing within thirty (30) days of the request and shall state whether it approves
the request or whether it determines that a public hearing is necessary because the sale or
transfer may adversely affect the subscribers; and
WHEREAS, the Minnesota Cable Communications Act and the cable franchise
ordinance for the City of Eden Prairie state that if a public hearing is deemed necessary,
such hearing shall be conducted within thirty (30) days of such determination and notice of
such a hearing shall be given fourteen (14) days before such hearing by publishing notice
once in a newspaper of general circulation in the area served by the franchise; and
WHEREAS, Article XII, Section 1, Subsection G of the cable franchise ordinance for
the City of Eden Prairie states that the City of Eden Prairie may inquire into the
qualifications of the prospective controlling party, and the Grantee shall assist the City in
393976 - 1 -
such an inquiry and pay all costs incurred by the City in so inquiring, including City staff time at a value
determined by the City; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Article XI of the cable franchise ordinance for the City of Eden Prairie,
the Minnesota Cable Communications Act and federal Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984, as
amended by the Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992, the City of Eden
Prairie has up to 120 days to exercise its right to purchase the system at the bona fide purchase price in the
offer.
NOW, THEREFORE,the City of Eden Prairie resolves as follows:
1. The City hereby states that Paragon Cable was held by KBLCOM for at least thirty-
six(36) months.
2. The City hereby states that it must approve a sale or transfer of the cable system and
it is reviewing the Form 394 provided by Paragon Cable and Time Warner, Inc. to
determine the effect of the proposed transfer on Eden Prairie subscribers.
Accordingly, a public hearing is necessary because the effect of the sale or transfer
is currently unknown and the effect on the subscribers may be adverse. Such a
hearing will be held on. April 18, 1995 at 7:30 p.m.
3. The City of Eden Prairie acknowledges that it has the right to purchase the cable
system pursuant to Article XI of the cable franchise ordinance for the City of Eden
Prairie and it is determining whether to exercise that right.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED,that the City Clerk is directed to send a copy of this Resolution to
Paragon Cable and Time Warner, Inc.

March 21, 1995
SECTION: Consent Agenda
DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: ITEM NO.
Administration-- Proposal by Woodlake/BFI To Provide Services
Craig Dawson for a Spring Clean-up/Drop-off Day IV. C
Requested Action:
It is recommended that the Council approve City participation in financing and publicizing the
proposal by Woodlake/BFI to provide a spring clean-up/drop-off day for City residents.
Background:
At City Council direction, the Environmental and Waste Management Commission explored ways that
Eden Prairie residents could have a "spring clean-up" program to get rid of bulky items, scrap, brush and
branches, etc.
In such neighboring communities as Minnetonka and Plymouth, city staffs arrange for
recycling/scrap companies to be present to accept items, and city maintenance personnel work
overtime on a Saturday to manage traffic and clean up the site after recyclers have left. The
recycling/scrap companies generally charge to accept certain items (e.g., $2 per tire, $10-15 per
appliance). In Minnetonka, some 600 to 700 cars travel to the site for the annual drop-off
program. Direct City costs for the program (i.e., overtime & equipment costs) run $2000-$3000.
In another model, which is used by Little Canada, North Saint Paul, and Vadnais Heights, a waste
handling company coordinates the service. It arranges for the recycling/scrap companies to be
present and charges a per vehicle fee to cover its costs.
Commission and staff members contacted Woodlake/BFI, and asked if it would consider coordinating a
spring clean-up/drop-off program at its site by the Flying Cloud Landfill. Woodlake/BFI has submitted a
proposal which is consistent with the expectations of the Commission. Under this plan, Woodlake/BFI
would accept branches and brush; car and small truck tires; scrap iron; appliances; bulky items such as
furniture; general trash; and building materials. Residents would be charged to drop off furniture, tires,
and appliances (at rates consistent with those in Minnetonka and Plymouth). There would also be a flat
charge of $7 per car, $12 per small pickup, and $23 per full-sized pickup. The collection would occur on
Saturday, June 10, from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m.
The City would assist with publicity for the program and with traffic management at the entry to the
Woodlake/BFI property.
Financial Considerations: As this would be the first time such a program would be offered to residents,
the Council may wish to encourage people to use the service by subsidizing the per vehicle fee. If
patronage were similar to Minnetonka's, the cost would likely range from $5000 to $7000. This expense
is an eligible charge against the City's $125,000 recycling grant from Hennepin County in 1995. In past
years, the City has rebated the entire grant to households covered by the program (i.e., those that put out
their own trash cans). The 1995 rebate is about $9.00 per household. Charging spring clean-up/drop-off
costs against the program would reduce the rebate approximately $0.50 per household. Publicity costs
would be nominal. Police reserves (who are volunteers) would likely provide traffic management.

Requested Council Action:
The Staff recommends that the Council take the following action:
• 1st Reading of an Ordinance for Zoning District Change from Public/R1-22 to R1-13.5 on 5.49
acres;
• Adopt a Resolution for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Church to Low Density Residential
on 5.49 acres;
• Adopt a Resolution for Preliminary Plat of 7.79 acres into 13 lots and 3 outlots
Background:
The Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the 13 lot subdivision at the February 27, 1995
meeting. This recommendation for approval was based on:
1. The project meets City code.
2. The City benefits from pretreating stormwater through NURP ponding.
3. Issues raised by the neighbors are not specific to this project but are existing problems and/or City
wide concerns(NURP pond safety).
Approximately 20 neighbors showed up at the meeting. They were there to voice their concerns about the
design of the project rather than the project itself. All residents who spoke supported the development of
the site but thought that the overall neighborhood would benefit from a different project design. Their
concerns were related to the location of the project's road accessing Blossom Road, the location of the
NURP pond and NURP pond safety. They wondered if the plans could be redesigned to have the project's
cul-de-sac access Bennett Place directly across from Purgatory Road and move the pond farther to the east
along County Road#1. The purpose of this redesign was to help relieve the amount of traffic using Blossom
Road and the intersection of Bennett Place where there is a perceived traffic problem. In conversation with
the neighbors,this is an existing problem that needs to be reviewed and is not created by the development
of this project.
The other concern of the neighbors is the construction and location of the proposed NURP pond. First,the
neighbors would like to see the proposed road access Bennett Place in this location. This would require a
reconfiguration of the pond. Based on the existing grades along County Road#1, a pond sized to meet the
NURP requirements probably cannot be built. This reduces the ability of the City and the developer to
pretreat runoff from this 25 acre area before discharge into Purgatory Creek. The neighbors are also very
concerned about the safety of the pond regarding children. Many people expressed their concern about
young children playing near and falling into the pond and drowning. Suggestions from the neighbors to
resolve this issue included moving the pond or fencing. The question of pond safety is not specific to this
project but to the overall City.
In summary,the neighbors are not against the development of this project. Their concerns are broad-based
and relate specifically to the existing traffic patterns in this area and NURP ponding. Staff can address these
issues with City Council direction.

Planning Commission
February 27, 1995
Uram introduced Beth Simenstad, who will give a brief presentation, after which
Staff will review the Staff Report and listen to neighborhood concerns.
Beth Simenstad, representing Hustad Corporation, reviewed her project with the
Planning Commission. She explained that one of the site constraints was the
location of a possible regional NURP pond, and that they tried to use it as an
advantage. She noted that the anticipated tree loss is at 125 caliber inches or
62%, and the replacement will be at 102 inches. She commented on
neighborhood safety concerns, such as, the location of the entrance to this project,
and the current traffic speed.
Clinton referred to the location of the NURP pond on the sketches, and
questioned whether or not the ash trees in that area have been planted. Simenstad
replied that she does not know. They were not planted by anyone that she knows
of. She noted that there are only 14 significant trees on the whole site.
Sandstad asked if they attempted to redesign a plat that would cut the tree loss
down. Simenstad responded that they have not redesigned another plan.
Uram noted that constructing a NURP pond in this area is beneficial for everyone
involved. It helps drainage in this particular area, plus it provides pre-treatment
of storm water which is a regulation that is enforced on all projects. Because of
• the design and amount of grading necessary to develop the site, tree loss is 125
caliber inches. After viewing the site, Staff believes that the tree loss may
actually be less when the project is built. There are other sites in the City that
have tree losses of 62%. It depends on where the trees are located and how the
project is designed. Staff believes the amount of traffic generated by the church
and 13 single family homes will not significantly affect the neighborhood. Staff
is recommending approval of the project subject to the recommendations in the
Staff Report.
Clinton questioned the drainage problem with the church. Uram replied that the
entire church property drains along the north side of County Road #1 to the low
area that is proposed with this plan as a NURP pond. This project is designed
to pick up the drainage from the church in a catch basin system and pretreat the
storm water.
Vince Kelly, 9900 Windsor Terraces presented the Commission with a petition

of 22 signatures in opposition of this project, but not in opposition of the
development of the land. He expressed concerns about the dangerous traffic
conditions this project will create, including the dangers he has from his
driveway. He noted that the plan will destroy beautiful ash trees at the corner of
Pioneer Trail and Bennett Place. They provide beauty to the neighborhood as
well as a shield of noise. He feels a more sensible approach would be to access
the development from Bennett Place and build a cul-de-sac between proposed Lots
3 and 12.
Clinton commented about his own experience at the site, and does not feel the
suggestion of the access to the development would alter safety conditions.
Kelly noted that it eliminates a dangerous intersection up on Blossom Road.
Steve Andert. 9722 Purgatory. noted he has similar concerns as Mr. Kelly. He
expressed concern about the way the traffic is draining out of Bennett Place on
Pioneer Trail. He is more concerned about the proposed development accessing
Blossom Road, and about Bennett Place and Pioneer Trail. He is also concerned
about Lots 7, 8, and 9 obstructing viewpoints when looking east on County Road
1. They will not be able to see anything at all. He commented on the dangers
of the NURP pond without any fencing because there are a lot of children in the
area. He is concerned about the overflow and where it will go.
Randy Hedlund, developer's engineer, addressed the concerns about the NURP
pond. He noted that the pond itself is designed according to Federal guide lines.
He said that the first 10 feet in the water is a drop of one foot, and after that it's
3:1 slope. The pond would probably be no more than six feet deep. Regarding
the fencing, he does not know what the City's policy is on that, and doesn't know
if they would do that. He does not agree with the views being blocked. He said
it's all overgrown ashes and brush and feels the view will be better. He
commented on the street grade noting that it's at an 8% grade and that's what the
City allows.
Foote questioned the design of the plan. Randy Hedlund replied that there are
25 acres and it is a good opportunity to use this parcel that has been tax-forfeited
for years for a NURP pond.
Uram noted that Staff reviewed the plans originally submitted which had the street

coming up from the bottom, and Staff's recommendation was to change the access
to Blossom Road.
Brad Sanvick, 9714 Purgatory Road, noted that his house will be directly
across from the pond. He expressed concerns about his children's safety with
regard to the pond, the dangerous traffic conditions, and the outbreak of
mosquitoes as a result of this pond. He also shared safety concerns about Mr.
Kelly's driveway.
Kulwant S. Modi. 9877 Bennett Place. expressed concerns about the tree loss
and concerns about the traffic conditions on Bennett Place. He would like to see
the area remain an open woods area.
Mark Hutkev. 9833 Bennett Place, expressed concerns about the safety of his
children regarding the pond, and what type of outlet there is for the pond. He
suggested this site to be a park with a playground instead of a pond, since there
are no playgrounds within walking distance. He also expressed concerns about
the traffic conditions on Bennett Place.
Mike Mylin, 11180 Blossom Road noted that he lives where Blossom Road
intersects with Bennett Place, and expressed concern about the high speed at the
crest of the hill making it a very dangerous intersection. It said it is safer to put
the intersection at the bottom of the hill where there is visual distance that adds
to safety.
Jane Kelly. 9900 Windsor Terraces noted that she is the owner of the home
with the steep driveway. She is speaking as a mother on the safety issues
involved. She said she has lived there for seven and a half years and all the
water is coming from Olympic Hills Golf Course. She has never seen any
problem coming off the north side where the church is. It's always just a mass
amount of water coming on County Road 1 making it very slippery in the
springtime.
Clinton asked if the sight distance coming out of Bennett Place, in either
direction, meets City standard. Uram replied that the intersection was approved
years ago. Staff did not check the sight distance because they assumed it was
checked previously when the whole project was designed. In his opinion, the
sight distance will only get better with the development of this project.

Planning Commission
February 27, 1995
Schlampp noted that the NURP pond is not a mosquito breeding pond. Re does
not know of any ordinances in Eden Prairie that states that NURP ponds should
be fenced. NURP ponds are constructed on a very, very gradual slope in case
children do go into it. This way they will not fall into it. He is happy to see a
NURP pond going in because it is a necessity. It does wonderful things and
keeps sedimentation out of Purgatory Creek.
Sandstad noted that he understands how the visibility at Bennett Place and Pioneer
Trail will improve because of the removal of trees. The NURP pond is necessary
because it improves the storm water quality. They are seeing them on all of their
developments. Regarding the safety issues, the road is no steeper than they
allow. The grade on the proposed roadway is reasonable. He expressed concern
about alternative plans because he doesn't feel this is the best plan.
Foote concurred with Sandstad about this not being the best design. He doesn't
see how the traffic is going to be any better. The NURP pond has to be there
because they provide a function that is necessary. He noted that he has two small
children and has a NURP pond across from his home. It bothers him but he
knows it must be there.
Kardell noted that the reason for the pond being there is because that's the
natural drainage for the site, and in order to have an adequate size, this is where
it's best suited.
A resident proposed putting another entrance on County Road 1. This way the
Department of Transportation would be able to come out there and reassess the
traffic and lower the speed limit.
Schlampp stated that the development should go ahead. He noted that fencing the
NURP pond .would only make it difficult to get at a child that has fallen in
because they are actually blocked off by the fence.
Clinton noted that the NURP pond is required for runoff into any natural water.
He expressed concern about the speed limit in Eden Prairie because people always
have a need to drive 20 to 25 miles faster than the limit. Every project has a
problem with speed and you have to separate it from the project. He does not see
a problem with the road design being an 8% grade. He supports the project as
it's traffic designed, and noted that the issues of traffic must be addressed

somewhere else:
Sandstad expressed concern about the tree loss and asked if anyone shared his
concerns.
Kardell noted that she looks at it as a trade-off of the trees versus the pond. It's
either the City's water standard or their tree policy. She would rather treat the
water going into Purgatory Creek.
Foote does not feel it's necessary to have the developer redesign the plans and
lose the NURP pond, nor does he see an advantage by putting the road across
Purgatory Road. He supports the project.
Sandstad asked if the developer has any interest in fine tuning on their own
initiative where tree loss would be concerned, and where additional improvements
in visibility could be considered near Pioneer Trail and Bennett Place. Simenstad
stated that the issue of sight distance has not been addressed.
Foote expressed concern about setting a precedent regarding the tree loss, a 62%
tree loss, to have a pond.
Clinton suggested having the Engineering Staff look at additional stop signs at
Bennett, in addition to the study of the site.
Uram noted that the City is very reluctant to put stop signs in because people are
always asking for them. From the tree standpoint, he doesn't believe the
Commission has to worry about setting a precedent. They have tree loss statistics
indicating tree loss percentages from 100% down to 2%. With regard to the
traffic situation, the City needs to take a look at the couple of issues that were
raised

BACKGROUND/COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN
The Prairie Lutheran Church project was originally approved in 1986. Their request was for a
Comprehensive Guide Plan change from Low Density Residential to Church and a zoning district
change from R1-22 to Public. The church constructed a 7,200 square foot building in 1986 and
expanded the building by 4,450 square feet in 1990. Based on the projected size of the church,
additional land is not necessary for expansion. Because of that, the church has decided to sell the
excess property and have it developed with 13 single family lots. The plans also show the church
expanding their parking facilities.
SITE PLAN/PRELIMINARY PLAT
The preliminary plat depicts a subdivision of 7.79 acres into 13 lots and 3 outlots. This includes 6.8
acres owned by the church and a .95 acre tax forfeit piece of property (see Property Disposition).
A zoning district change from Rural to R1-13.5 is proposed on 5.49 acres. All lots meet the
minimum requirements of the District. Lot sizes within the subdivision range from a minimum of
13,575 square feet to a maximum of 21,505 square feet. The average lot size is 15,310 square feet.
These lots are consistent with those developed in the area. Access into the project is provided by
the extension of Windsor Terrace north toward County Road#1 and ending in a cul-de-sac.
Outlot A is the location of the proposed NURP pond that will provide storm water treatment for this
area. Outlot C will be given to the owner of Lot 4 in the Bennett Place Addition.
CHURCH PARKING LOT EXPANSION
Outlot B will remain the property of the Church and be developed with additional parking. As part
of this project, Hustad Development Corporation will grade the new parking lot. At some future
date,this parking lot will be constructed. To construct the parking lot and meet City code,Outlot
B must be combined with the existing church site or variances received for off site parking and 0-lot
line setbacks. Staff has recommended that Outlot B be combined with the adjacent lot eliminating
the need for variances. The Church must decide how they would like to proceed prior to Council
review. Before the parking lot is constructed, a Site Plan review process is required.
PROPERTY DISPOSITION
Outlot A and the rear portions of Lots 6 and 7 are made up of an underlying tax-forfeit parcel owned
by the State Land Department. City staff and the Developer have been working for several months
in trying to "partner"a mutually agreeable use for this property and review the legal issues involved
with the property's disposition. This property has been tax forfeit since 1987 and has a large amount
of special assessments levied upon it. Staff feels the best use of the property is a regional ponding
facility. Staff is currently negotiating with the Developer about the amount of special assessments
that will be re-assigned to the residential properties within the plat. Staff will bring a
recommendation to the City Council regarding this amount.

C C
GRADING/TREE REPLACEMENT
Elevations on this site range from a high point of 872 along Blossom Road to a minimum of 814 that
is the location of the NURP pond within Outlot A. The property slopes north toward County Road
#1 from the high point located along Blossom Road. The entire site will be graded to allow for the
construction of the road and building pads.
Plans indicate maximum cut and fill amounts of approximately 10 feet. This is necessary to take
advantage of the slopes on the site and to allow for the construction of walk-out lots.
There is a total of 203 caliper inches of significant trees on the site. A total of 125 calipers inches
or 62%will be lost due to grading requiring a replacement of 102 caliper inches. The landscape plan
depicts 51 caliper inches. The plan shall be revised to reflect an additional 51 caliper inches of trees
replaced on the site. These additional trees should be spread equally between deciduous and conifers
and used for buffering from County Road#1 and the new parking lot. In addition,City code requires
that parking lots be screened from roads and differing adjacent land uses. The landscape plan should
be revised to include plantings on the church property to buffer the parking lot from the proposed
single family homes.
UTILITIES
Water and sanitary sewer are available to this project. Water service will be provided by the
connection to a 6-inch water line within Blossom Road and extended to the end of the cul-de-sac
and connecting to a 12-inch water line within the County Road#1 right-of-way. An 8-inch sanitary
sewer will be connected to an existing manhole located in the northwest corner of the project site
within the County Road#1 right-of-way and extended to serve the lots.
STORM WATER QUALITY
Outlot A is proposed to be a regional storm water treatment pond. Besides serving this property, the
pond would receive and treat storm water from approximately 25 additional acres of drainage area
within the Bennett Place and Blossom Road areas. Part of these drainage improvements would
include routing a storm water pipe from Bennett Place through this pond and installing an outlet
pipe. Having this pond in place would provide several benefits. First, it would provide pre-
treatment of previously untreated storm water that drains directly to Purgatory Creek. Second, it
would help to alleviate drainage and erosion problems located downstream by providing storm water
storage capacity and releasing storm water at a slower rate. Lastly, it could provide some storage
capacity for the future upgrading of County Road#1.
The natural drainage area is toward the pond and includes the church property to the east,Outlot A
and the residential lots. Specific storm sewer improvements to support this project include extending
storm sewer into a depression within Outlot B created to provide some storage capacity, extension
3
V, A , - 1S
c C
of storm sewer into the southerly portion of Outlot B to provide drainage for the future church
parking lot, extension of storm sewer to the westerly portion of the property to intercept rear yard
drainage, and storm sewer and catch basins within the proposed roadway. All drainage would be
routed through the storm water quality pond for pre-treatment prior to discharge.
The storm sewer along the westerly border of the property should be extended to the south lot line
of Lot 3 with a catch basin installed to intercept drainage along the rear of the abutting lots.
SIDEWALKS
There is an existing 5 foot concrete sidewalk along the west side of Bennett Place. No sidewalks are
required in this subdivision. The Eden Prairie Comprehensive Trails Plan indicates a future 8 foot
wide bituminous trail along County Road#1.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
The Community and Economic Development Staff recommends approval of the request by Hustad
Development Corporation for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Church to Low Density
Residential on 5.49 acres, Zoning District Change from Public and R1-22 to R1-13.5 on 5.49 acres
and Preliminary Plat of 7.79 acres into 13 lots,3 outlots and road right-of-way based on revised plans
dated January 26, 1995, the Staff Report dated February 24, 1995 and based on the following
conditions:
1. Prior to City Council review,the proponent shall:
A. Revise the landscape to reflect an additional 51 inches. Submit a landscape
plan for the church parking lot.
B. Revise the grading plan to reflect the extension of the storm sewer along the
westerly border of the property to the south lot line of Lot 3 with a catch
basin installed to intercept additional storm water runoff.
C. Reach a decision on how to proceed with the church parking lot construction.
This decision will either be combining Outlot B and the existing church site
or applying for variances at time of construction.
2. Prior to 2nd Reading by the City Council, the proponent and City shall reach an
agreement on the amount of special assessments that will be re-assigned to the
residential properties within the plat. The developer shall enter into a special
assessment agreement with the City based on this agreed upon amount.

review and approval by the City Engineer.
B. Submit storm water runoff, utility and erosion control plans for review and
approval by the Watershed District.
4. Prior to building permit issuance, the proponent shall pay the cash park fee.
5. Prior to construction of the church parking lot, the church will be required to go
through the Site Plan review process.

RE: American Lutheran Church 2nd Addition
Dear Ms. Simonstad:
Thank you for your letter of February 23, 1995 regarding your purchase of a portion of Lot 4, Eden Prairie
Acres and construction of storm water treatment facilities on the remaining portion.
You indicated that this plan adds $12,000 in cost to construct the storm water treatment facility and $5,000 in
cost to connect to the existing storm sewer in Bennett Place. You have estimated that these costs are attributable
to the use of Lot 4.
Our analysis is somewhat different. If Lot 4 is not utilized, the subdivision is reduced to eleven lots and a pond
is constructed within the subdivision. Approximately one half the estimated $12,000 to construct the proposed
pond would be required to construct the smaller pond within the subdivision. The connection to the storm sewer
in Bennett Place would still be required for your subdivision. You could not construct this subdivision and simply
dump storm water onto Lot 4 without drainage easements. Since a smaller pond within the subdivision would
not be sized for the Church property, their storm water would need to be conveyed through the new subdivision,
separate from the storm sewer within the subdivision,which would convey storm water to the smaller pond within
the subdivision. We estimate that this would add approximately $11,000 for additional storm sewer.
The net result is the subdivision is reduced by two lots and development, costs increase by $5,000. We propose
that you purchase approximately 8200 square feet of Lot 4 at an estimated price of $4,000 and assume the
$63,000 in special assessments and interest currently due for a total acquisition cost of$67,000. We estimate
your development costs will be reduced by approximately$5,000 and you will have two additional lots to market.
Your basis for these two additional lots will be $31,500 each.
Based on our analysis Hustad Land Company will be able to absorb the total special assessments against Lot 4
and gain two additional lots at a cost basis below the cost basis in the remainder of the subdivision and below
market.
I would be glad to meet with you to review our analysis as outlined above.
Sincerely,
Alan D. , P.E.
City Engineer

2ND ADDITION PROJECT
HUSTAD LAND COMPANY PROPOSAL
THE UNDERSIGNED RESIDENTS OF EDEN PRAIRIE OPPOSE THE PROPOSED
AMERICAN LUTHERAN CHURCH 2ND ADDITION PRELIMINARY PLAT AS PRO-
POSED BY HUSTAD LAND COMPANY FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS .
( 1) THE PLAN BRINGS ALL THE TRAFFIC FOR THE PROPOSED 13 HOME
SUBDIVISION UP THE HILL ON BENNETT PLACE (SOUTH) , EAST ON
BLOSSOM AND BACK DOWN THE HILL (NORTH) ON WINDSOR . THIS
IS CLEARLY NOT THE MOST EFFICIENT WAY TO ACCESS THIS
SUBDIVISION .
(2) THE PLAN ADDS THIRTEEN HOMES TO AN AREA THAT HAS ONLY ONE
ACCESS (BLOSSOM ROAD) . THIS AREA ALREADY HAS 30 HOMES AND
PRAIRIE LUTHERAN CHURCH RELYING ON BLOSSOM ROAD AS THE ONLY
POINT OF INGRESS AND EGRESS .
(3) THE PLAN IGNORES SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS ( ESPECIALLY IN THE
WINTER) ABOUTH THE PLANNED INTERSECTION OF BLOSSOM AND
WINDSOR . . . i . e . A STEEP NORTH FACING ROAD WILL FUNNEL
SOUTHBOUND TRAFFIC INTO A BUSY AND SOMETIMES ICY INTER-
SECTION WITH THE ADDED PROBLEM OF A STEEP NORTH FACING
DRIVEWAY WITHIN 50 FEET OF THE INTERSECTION .
(4) THE PLAN WILL DESTROY A BEAUTIFUL GROVE OF ASPEN TREES
AT THE CORNER OF PIONEER AND BENNETT . THESE TREES ADD
BEAUTY TO THE AREA AND ALSO ACT AS A SHIELD FOR NOISE
AND DUST COMING FROM TRAFFIC ON PIONEER TRAIL---A ROAD
WHICH IS SLATED FOR WIDENING .
THE UNDERSIGNED DO NOT OPPOSE DEVELOPMENT OF THIS LAND . HOWEVER ,
A MORE SENSIBLE APPROACH WOULD BE TO ACCESS THE DEVELOPMENT FROM
BENNET BY EXTENDING PURGATORY EAST THRU WHAT IS SLATED AS LOT
#6 ON THE PLAT AND BUILDING A CUL-DE-SAC BETWEEN PROPOSED LOTS
#3 AND #12 . LOT #7 , #8 AND #9 SHOULD BE ELIMINATED TO SAVE THE

Eden Prairie MN 55344
RE: Hustad Land Company Purchase of Lot 4, Eden Prairie Acres
Dear Don;
In light of our conversation Friday, February 17, 1995, I am submitting a new offer to purchase
the .19 acres known as Lot 4, Eden Prairie Acres. I will pay $30,000 for 8,138.27 square feet.
This amount is more than three times what I am paying per square foot for the adjacent property,
for which I believe we paid a very fair market price.
I am increasing my offer from $10,000.00 to $30,000.00 only because I understand that the City
has assessment costs that it must try to recoup. I am hopeful that we can meet at this dollar
figure in an effort to work together to solve community storm water quality and drainage issues,
and create a better subdivision of 13 lots, rather than a possible 11 or 12 lots. I estimate that
Hustad Land Company will incur an additional $12,000.00 for engineering and excavation for.
the enlargement of the pond. Also, we will be spending an estimated $5,000.00 to install an
outlet pipe for the pond. The installation of this pipe will require us to cut through and patch the
existing Bennett roadway. In my offer dated February 14, 1995, I identified my costs as
follows:
Land - $20,000.00 per unit,
Development- $25,000.00 per unit.
TOTAL - $45,000.00 per unit
These estimated costs include the construction for the enlargement of the pond, but do not
include the additional land cost of$30,000.00 to the City.
Page 2
In summary, I am gaining one lot and possibly a second by purchasing the tax forfeit property.
This purchase will increase my per lot cost to approximately $47,300.00. This is a very high per
lot cost, especially for this type and size of subdivision. If I do not purchase the additional
property and construct the enlarged pond, I would be losing one or two lots and reducing my
costs by approximately $47,000.00.
$30,000.00 Purchase from City
12,000.00 Enlarged Pond
5,000.00 Outlet Pipe
$47,000.00 TOTAL
I do not believe that I have $47,000.00 of profit in the one or two lots that might be gained by
adding Lot 4, Eden Prairie Acres into the proposed subdivision. At best, it could be a wash.
Since . y,

RE: Proposed Plat - American Lutheran Church 2nd Addition
CSAH 4, southeast quadrant CSAH 1 and Bennett Place
Section 25, Township 116, Range 22
Hennepin County Plat No. 2211
Review and Recommendations
Dear Mr. Uram:
Minnesota Statutes 505.02 and 505.03, Plats and Surveys, require County
review of proposed plats abutting County Roads. We reviewed the above plat
and make the following comments:
• Along the frontage of proposed Outlot A with CSAH 1, the developer should
dedicate an additional 17 feet of right of way for a total of 50 feet of
right of way from and along the centerline of CSAH 1, as shown on the
preliminary plat dated December 16, 1994. From the east line of Outlot
A to the east line of the plat the existing 50 feet of right of way is
sufficient and no other right of way is required at this time.
• All access from the plat to CSAH 1 must be via the City street system.
Hennepin County will not permit any new direct access to CSAH 1.
• All proposed construction within County right of way requires an approved
Hennepin County permit prior to beginning construction. This includes,
but is not limited to access, drainage and utility construction, trail
development and landscaping. Contact our Permits Section at 930-2550 for
permit forms.
• The developer must restore all areas, within County right of way,
disturbed during construction.

FROM: Stuart A. Forager of Parks and Natural Resources
DATE: February 28, 1995
SUBJECT: Supplemental Staff Report to the February 24, 1995 Community Development
Staff Report for American Lutheran Church Second Addition
RECOMMENDATION:
The staff feels that this project has merit based on the possible scenarios that could take place
on this property and would recommend that the project be approved based on the
February 24, 1995 Community Development staff report and this supplemental memorandum.
BACKGROUND:
This property is owned by the American Lutheran Church. Outlot A, which is a tax forfeited
parcel of land, is held by the State Land Department. The total site area is 7.79 acres. The
proponent plans on developing this area into thirteen lots and three outlots. The zoning change
would be from the current rural to an R1-13.5. Outlot A as would be dedicated to the
proposed
City of Eden Prairie for NURP pond and storm water treatment.
ISSUES:
Tree Preservation
This project site has a total of 21 significant trees. The majority of trees are cedar trees and oak
trees. The largest tree on the site is 15" in diameter and is designated tree number 21.
These trees represent a total of 203 inches of significant trees of which 125 inches or 62% would
be lost due to grading. The vast majority of the trees that would be lost are open grown
cedars that are scattered throughout this site. The staff has taken time to evaluate 1964 and 1976
aerial photos of the area to see what the vegetation history has been on this particular site.
It appears from the aerial photos that the wooded area in the northwestern corner has expanded
to nearly twice its original size in the past thirty years. The remainder of the site
has been mainly grassland with open grown cedars. The trees located in the northwestern corner
of the site center around a naturally occurring lowland area and are mixed aspen box elder, with
a few oaks.
UP,�2ra
The staff would recommend that additional tree material be added to the landscaping plan to
offset the loss of 125 caliper inches. As pointed out in the Community Development staff
report, additional screening would be necessary to screen the homes from the future parking lot.
WETLAND IMPACT AND STORM WATER TREATMENT:
The proponent is required to follow all Riley/Purgatory Creek Watershed District regulations
and submit a detailed plan to the City Engineer prior to final plat approval. The NURP pond
in the northwest corner is designated to serve and treat storm water from this site, as well as
twenty-five additional acres within the Bennett Place and Blossom Road areas. This outlot that
has been designated as tax forfeited is under negotiation to compensate the City for back taxes
and special assessments due on the parcel. Originally, when this corner went tax forfeit the City
was working on a plan with Hennepin County to utilize it as a NURP pond as part of the
upgrade for County Road 1 and after much evaluation, it was determined that this area would
not be needed for the road upgrade in the future.
It is expected that this outlot would be dedicated to the City for inclusion in its overall storm
water ponding system.
SIDEWALK/BIKE TRAIL INSTALLATION:
There is an existing concrete five foot sidewalk along the west side of Bennett Place. No
sidewalks would be required within the subdivision. The park comprehensive plan indicates a
future eight foot bituminous trail along the southerly side of County Road 1 at the time of
upgrade.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning Commission reviewed this proposal at its February 27, 1995 commission meeting
and it was approved on a 6-1 vote. The staff would recommend that this project be forwarded
to the City Council based on the conditions outlined in the Community Development staff report
dated February 24, 1995.

V,R 1asb
Hilgeman expressed concern about replacing the trees that are not
deciduous to the site. Vogelbacher replied that they are doing this to help
the bog that is adjacent to their site, and they are supplementing it with
spruces which will help the runoff.
C. American Lutheran Church 2nd Addition
Staff was referred to a memo dated February 28, 1995, from Stuart A.
Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources, and a Staff Report dated
February 24, 1995, from Donald R. Uram, Economic Development
Manager, and Jeff Johnson, Senior Engineering Technician.
Fox reviewed the project with the Commission. He noted that this is a
request for development of the lot adjacent to the American Lutheran
Church. It would be done in a combination with a piece of tax forfeited
land that's currently being held by the State Land Department. The
proposal is for development of 13 single family lots and three outlots.
One outlot would be for a NURP pond. The other outlot would
incorporate an area for an additional parking lot for the church. He noted
that this was reviewed by the Planning Commission on February 13,
1995.
Beth Simonsted, Hustad Land Company, 11000 West 78th Street,
reviewed her development proposal with the Commission. She said that
these lots are very comparable to the surrounding subdivisions in the area.
She noted that the main issue has been the location of the NURP pond.
The City has been hopeful that the pond will serve as a regional pond
including the additional 25 acre Watershed surrounding the area. They
will be grading the entire site so they will be redirecting existing drainage
of the church site into the storm system they propose, and catch it with a
catch basin. She noted that they have modified their original tree loss
calculation of 42% or 125 caliber inches, down to 27% tree loss. There
are 14 significant trees on the site. They have exceeded their tree
replacement requirements on the last three projects they have done, and
hope to do so on this project.
Koenig expressed concern about the grading being sloped rather than flat
land. Fox noted that the reason for the mass grading is that most of these
homes have walkout basements.
Hilgeman questioned if this was the site that Staff did an aerial view of.
Fox replied that it is the site and he showed the area on the map.
Brown expressed concern about the size of the NURP pond not being
large due to additional runoff that will occur when the trees are gone, and
when the new parking area is paved. Fox replied that it's a place to -
channel rapid runoff off of hard surfaces, off driveways, off roofs, and it
4
goes into the NURP pond. Through the process of holding it, the solids
settle out of it. This particular NURP pond is no different than any other
one. The size of this pond would be as deep as 10 to 12 feet before it
falls out, and is calculated to take care of the entire site plus the adjacent
site.
Koenig asked if most of the trees are going to come out where the pond
is going in. Fox replied that the trees are scattered throughout this site.
Hilgeman questioned whether or not there has to be screening from the
NURP pond by Pioneer Trail. Fox replied that there does not have to be
screening.
Koenig expressed concern about the tree replacement calculations. Fox •
noted that the amended plan is to save trees #10, #11, #12, and #7. He
was out last week and has not had a chance to recalculate it. Simonsted
commented that they are figuring on 27% tree loss, and are going to try
to save tree #7.
MOTION: Jacobson moved to accept Staff's recommendations for the
American Lutheran Church 2nd Addition. Kube-Harderwijk seconded the
motion and it passed 5-0-0.
D. Bluffs East 16th
Staff referred the Commission to a memo dated February 28, 1995, from
Stuart A. Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources, and a Staff
Report, dated February 24, 1995, from Michael D. Franzen, City
Planner.
Fox reviewed the project with the Commission. He noted that this project
has been looked at by the Staff and neighbors, and there have been a
number of compromises such as the building face materials. The original
tree loss calculation was 50%, but with the recommendation by Staff to
remove one lot and to change one of the building pad locations, the tree
loss dropped down to 32%.
Staff noted that there is a large amount of undergrowth consisting of
honeysuckle shrubs and regeneration growth of red oak trees. As a result
of this regeneration growth and other vegetation, the site when viewed
appears to have a very dense consistency of woodlands. Residents to the
south stated that they are concerned about the removal of the natural
vegetation adjacent to their homes for the construction of a building, as
well as storm sewer force main.
Neighbors are concerned about the roadway proposed to service the pond
on this site. The Engineering Department is recommending this pond

C. DELEGARD COMMERCIAL by Curt and Duane Delegard. Request for
Zoning District Change from Rural to Neighborhood Commercial on 3.66
acres, Preliminary Plat of 3.66 acres into 3 lots, Site Plan review on 3.66 acres.
Location: Dell Road and Highway 212.
Franzen introduced Bob Smith, representing the proponent, after which Staff will
review the Staff Report.
Bob Smith, Planner, reviewed his project with the Planning Commission. He
noted that this is a continuation of a PUD done about a year and a half ago with
Centex. He said the front of the retail area will have pitched roofs. The brick
along the bottom of the third building is a rich dark red brown color to reflect the
building across the street, and the first building will be a speckled color. The
roof is dark and charcoal gray which gives a residential feel.
Clinton asked if this is a short term restaurant, such as a Pizza Hut. Smith
replied that they are looking at something like a Perkins Restaurant where you
can sit down for a little longer, but not a four course meal.
Kardell questioned the amount of gas pumps for the gas station. Smith replied
that there are four islands with three gas pumps on each, making it 12 pumps in

total.
Sandstad asked if there was any way to enhance the rear elevation of the gas
station/convenience store. Smith responded that it backs up to 212 and the 212
right-of-way is going to be at least 310 feet wide. What they have done is just
left it plain and wrapped brick all the way around and left it as more of a utility
site. The highway is 20 feet below this site and felt the building would not be
visible.
Sandstad asked about the temptation of using signage in the rear. Smith
responded that he doesn't think it's possible with the Sign Ordinance. Franzen
noted that the Sign Code allows up to 15% of the face of a wall to be allowed for
signage, and that would be on each face of the building.
Sandstad asked if there is a Noise Ordinance that would handle the trash hauling
at 5:00 A.M. differently on commercial property than it does on residential.
Franzen replied that it's the same hour standard throughout the site regardless if
it's residential or commercial, and it is 6:00 A.M.
Franzen stated that Staff recommends approval according to the recommendations
of page 5 of the Staff Report.
Kardell asked about the time frame on Dell Road. Franzen replied that it's
supposed to happen this summer.
Dan Blake, representing Centex, noted that he feels the architecture of these
buildings are wonderful, and would like to assure the City that they have done
everything they can to let everyone know what's going on.
Sandstad stated that he commends the owner with a good job and supports the
plan.
Foote noted that it's a very nice plan and there are no significant trees that have
to be removed.
Kardell noted that the Commission would be concerned about material changes
in the design to accommodate the corporate needs.

Staff Report
Delegard Commercial
February 24, 1995
BACKGROUND
In 1993 the City Council approved a Comprehensive Guide Plan Change for this site from Rural
to Neighborhood Commercial. A Planned Unit Development Concept Plan was also approved
totalling 19,840 sq. ft. of building on 3 lots. Land uses approved were a restaurant, gas
convenience store, and general retail.
PRELIMINARY PLAT
The preliminary plat depicts the subdivision of 3.66 acres into 3 lots. All of the lots are less
than the 2 acre minimum lot size requirement in the Neighborhood Commercial Zoning District.
A Planned Unit Development waiver is required. Staff believes that the Planned Unit
Development waiver should be granted since the total aggregate area is greater than 2 acres.
SITE PLAN
The site plan depicts the construction of three buildings totalling 19,840 sq. ft. on 3.66 acres at
a base area ratio of .124. The Neighborhood Commercial Zoning District would allow up to
a .20 base area ratio.
All buildings meet the required 35 foot front yard setback from public roads. The project meets
side and rear yard setbacks.
Parking required for this site is based upon 8 spaces per 1,000 for the general retail building,
1 per 3 seats for the restaurant, and 20 spaces for the gas convenience store. This is a total
requirement of 134 parking spaces. The site plan depicts a total of 134 parking spaces with 9
handicapped spaces meeting ADA requirements. Zero lot line setbacks to parking are required
and is a planned unit development waiver. This type of waiver is common in shopping centers.
Staff supports the waiver, provided the property owners enter into a cross-access and
maintenance agreement.
ARCHITECTURE
The PUD approval required that all buildings be designed with a residential character using
similar roof lines and materials to the surrounding multiple family buildings. The buildings as
proposed are designed with a pitched roof and will be using a similar brick color to match.
Stucco will be used as an accent material, rather than siding. Since the building is meeting the
75% brick and glass requirement of City code, staff does not have a problem with the accent
material being stucco as compared to the siding.

Staff Report
Delegard Commercial
February 24, 1995
The mechanical units are ground mounted and physically screened by a wall.
LANDSCAPING
The amount of landscaping required for this site is based upon a caliper inch requirement
according to total building square footage, screening of parking and loading areas, and transition
to the surrounding residential areas. The landscape plan meets these requirements.
LIGHTING
There are two primary concerns with lighting. One is the intensity of light underneath the gas
canopy and the visibility from the residential areas. The other is the intensity of lighting and
visibility of the backside of the retail building facing the multiple family buildings to the east.
The lighting plan shows the location and intensity of lighting. It does not, indicate the intensity
of lighting under the canopy. Gas pumps are typically lighted between 80 to 100 foot candles.
The restaurant and the retail building, plus landscaping will shield some of the lighting from the
adjoining residential areas to the north. Lighting under the canopy must be recessed so that no
side glare is apparent.
Lights on the backside of the retail building should be a downcast cutoff luminar. Lights should
be mounted no higher than 10 feet off the ground.
Since this project is adjacent to residential, the maximum height of all light poles should be no
greater than 20 feet.
TRASH ENCLOSURES
Trash is a frequent complaint from adjoining residents near Neighborhood Commercial areas.
Most of these complaints are due to inadequate areas provided for trash. Since 1990, the City
has required larger trash enclosure areas for general commercial use based upon a ratio of one
square foot enclosure for every 38 square feet of building. This will be large enough to handle
trash and recycling. The plan meets this requirement.
The restaurant must provide a total of 288 square feet of enclosure area for recycling, general
refuse, and trash compactor. This is to be located inside of the building with access by an
overhead door.
The gas convenience station will have an outside enclosure of approximately 135 square feet.

February 24, 1995
SIGNS
There are two signs that are permitted by code.
1. One, 80 square foot, 20 foot high pylon sign (along Dell Road at a 20' setback.)
2. One, 36 square foot, monument sign along Linwood Court, also at a 20' setback. These
signs have not been designed, but staff would suggest that they be constructed out of
similar materials and colors as the entrance monument signs for the residential areas to
the north.
GRADING AND TREE LOSS
This site contains no significant trees. The site was previously graded as part of the approval
of the overall PUD.
DRAINAGE AND STORM WATER QUALITY
A pretreatment pond has been designed to NURP standards. This is located on the northeast
corner of the site.
UTILITIES
Sewer and water service is immediately adjacent on the property.
SIDEWALKS AND TRAILS
An 8 foot wide bituminous trail must be constructed along Dell Road. Due to the right turn lane
into the project, and a right turn lane into Linwood Court, there was not enough room to
construct the trail within Dell Road right of way. Since the trail is located on private property,
the City will need an easement agreement from the property owner for access.
This project will also be required to construct a five-foot wide concrete sidewalk along Linwood
Court. Part of this sidewalk is on private property and will also require an easement agreement.
There are sidewalk connections proposed from the sidewalk along Linwood Court to the
restaurant and retail buildings.

February 24, 1995
TRAFFIC
As part of the Planned Unit Development review, the City requested a traffic study to analyze
the potential impacts of commercial traffic in this location. Based upon the traffic volumes
proposed, changes were made in the design of Linwood Court and Dell Road to accommodate
deceleration lanes off of Dell Road, a right-turn lane to Linwood Court, and a right-turn lane
from Linwood Court to Dell Road. Linwood Court was increased in right-of-way from 50 to
60 feet wide.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The staff would recommend approval of the project based on plans dated February 24, 1995,
subject to the Staff Report dated February 24, 1995 and subject to the following conditions:
1. 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.
2. Prior to Building Permit issuance, the proponent shall:
A. Pay the appropriate cash park fee.
B. Meet with the Fire Marshal to go over fire code requirements.
C. Submit samples of exterior building materials for review.
D. Submit a landscaping and screening bond for review.
3. Planned Unit Development Waivers are granted for lot size less than 2 acres in the
Neighborhood Commercial Zoning District and zero lot line setback to parking in the
Neighborhood Commercial Zoning District.
4. Prior to release of the final plat, the Developer shall submit a cross-access and
maintenance agreement for review and approval by the City Engineer.

BACKGROUND
This is a continued item from the May 10, 1993 meeting. The Planning Commission indicated
they were comfortable with the Comprehensive Guide Plan change to Medium Density
Residential and Neighborhood Commercial, and the PUD Concept in general, but directed the
proponent to make the following plan changes:
1. Provide a better transition to the low density areas to the north of W. 82nd Street.
2. Reduce tree loss.
3. Provide a better relationship between the commercial and multiple family uses.
The building architecture should reflect a residential character using similar roof
pitches, colors, and exterior building materials. In addition, provide a better
transition to the multiple family areas with increased berming and heavier mass
plantings of conifer trees. The site plan should also be changed to provide a
better relationship between parking and building.
TRANSITION
The Developer has modified the PUD Concept and Preliminary Plat to depict R1-13.5 lot sizes
on the south side of W. 82nd Street but will be zoned R1-9.5. This was accomplished by
removing three lots.
REDUCE TREE LOSS
The Developer has submitted a revised tree inventory which includes additional significant Oak
Trees outside of the construction limits that were not included in the first inventory. The total
number of significant tree inches on the property is 1901 inches. The Developer has modified
the grading plan around the significant Oak and Cottonwood trees in the central portion of the
property so that only 612 inches of trees are removed. Tree loss on the property is 32% and tree
replacement would be 262 caliper inches. Prior to review by the City Council the proponent
shall submit a tree replacement plan for 262 inches.
REVISED PUD CONCEPT FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL AREA
The proponent has submitted a revised development plan for the commercial area with the
following changes:

1. The NURP pond in the Northwest corner of the project has been eliminated and
combined to create a larger NURP pond in the northeast corner. This allows
room along Deerfield Court and Dell Road to create a berm and mass plantings
of conifers to create a transition to the residential areas to the north.
2. The two retail buildings have been shifted to the south which allows for a larger
NURP pond area and room to provide mass plantings of conifers to create a
transition to the north and east.
3. The shift in the retail buildings to the south provides a better relationship between
parking spaces.
4. The number of pump islands has been reduced from 3 to 2. This reduces the size
of the canopy and the area of intense lighting.
The Developer has indicated that the gas/convenience store may be a SuperAmerica and that the
restaurant may be a Perkins. Since these two commercial uses have their own architectural style,
suggests it may be difficult to achieve architectural compatibility with the surrounding residential
structures. Perkins does not have a pitched roof with shingles and the primary building materials
are stucco with yellow and green colors. The SuperAmerica store is dark brick and glass but
with a brown metal roof and a white canopy with red stripes. Since the architectural
compatibility is a primary reason for considering a guide plan change to the neighborhood
commercial, it is important that the proponents commit to these architectural standards.
The attached letter from the Minnesota Department of Transportation indicates that the direct
access off Dell Road north of the bridge abutment for 212 will not be allowed because of the
close proximity to the ramps and would create a safety problem. The plan as prepared by the
proponent has limited the driveway access to an "in-only" condition as previously suggested by
Staff. The proponent and City Staff will meet with MNDOT to discuss the reasons for
recommending no access and ask if alternative locations for access off Dell Road are acceptable.
OTHER ISSUES
The proponent was concerned with the recommended 28 foot wide road and a 30 foot setback
in the multi-family area. Staff reevaluated these recommendations and concluded that in order
to meet these standards, that units would have to be taken out of the project because of the tight
relationship between parking, buildings and the proposed wetland area/park trail corridor. In
order to allow for a larger park corridor and provide for maximum protection of the edge of the
wetland area, it would be better to have the setbacks to the internal driveway as proposed by the

proponent. The Fire Marshal will consider a 24 foot road provided that this lane is posted "No
Parking". To minimize parking in the "No Parking" areas, Staff would suggest providing
additional guest parking.
TRAFFIC GENERATION
The Planning Commission expressed concern that the traffic generated by the proposal is greater
than if the site was developed according to the Comprehensive Guide Plan.
The trip generation rates for commercial as prepared by the proponent are based upon each
individual use as if they were located on separate lots in different parts of the City. The Traffic
Engineering Manual (1987) of the Institute of Transportation Engineers indicates that the traffic
generation characteristics of multi-use projects are different from the traffic generation of the
individual components of the project. Multi-use projects would potentially generate less traffic
because one trip to a multi-use project could satisfy a number of trip purposes at the same time.
For example, a person using the gas pumps may also shop at the retail store or have lunch at the
restaurant. The manual indicates (based upon surveys), that multi-use projects could reduce trip
generation of the individual uses within the development by 25%.
A reduction for multi-purpose trips for the commercial area (as shown in the proponent's study)
would reduce traffic from 638 trips in the peak hour to 207 peak hour trips. The total traffic
generated by this planned development would be 571 trips. This compares with guide plan peak
hour traffic of 230 peak hour trips. The number of trips generated is not the issue, the issue is
what impact does the increased traffic have on the road system in the area.
Traffic impacts on Dell Road were analyzed in the Southwest Area Traffic Study. Traffic was
based on a scenario which considered up to 60,000 square feet of commercial at the interchange.
That scenario could generate up to 1100 trips. This traffic was incorporated into the capacity
analysis of the Dell Road/212 interchange (which is opposite Deerfield Court) and results in a
level of service of B/C which is good considering "F" is the worst condition.
To determine if additional improvements are needed at the Deerfield Court intersection, a traffic
study should be prepared by a registered professional traffic engineer. This study would
determine, for example, the need for right and left turn lanes from Deerfield Court. This should
be done before the project is finalized because additional right-of-way may be needed at
Deerfield Court.

COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN CHANGE
The Comprehensive Guide Plan depicts this site as low density residential for up to 2.5 units per
acre and open space. Most of Eden Prairie has been developed consistent with the
Comprehensive Guide Plan. The City has approved Guide Plan Changes when there are
compelling reasons to change the plan.
Although the Comprehensive Guide Plan does not identify sites for multiple and commercial in
the southwest part of Eden Prairie, staff expected there would be requests for multiple family
housing and commercial. Staff has directed requests for high density housing and community
commercial to areas on the Comprehensive Guide Plan (near Highway 494 and 5) where higher
densities are more appropriate. Staff has suggested to developers that lower density multiple
family and neighborhood commercial could be acceptable uses based on compatibility with low
density (single family) areas guided and built.
The overall density of the residential component of the PUD is 3.46 units per acre. Considering
that the medium density according to the Comprehensive Guide Plan is a range from 2.5 to 10
units per acre, the overall density is towards the lower end of the range.
The Comprehensive Guide Plan does not predetermine where neighborhood commercial should
be located in the City. The Guide Plan suggests between 10 to 15 neighborhood commercial
areas would be needed to serve the projected population. Neighborhood Commercial can be
characterized as a 11 to 2 acre site with 10 to 20,000 sq. ft. of building, serving an area of 1
to 11 miles and providing daily retail goods and services. This neighborhood commercial site
is approximately 31 acres in size. The square footage proposed is approximately 20,000 sq. ft.
The Commission has previously asked that compelling reasons be identified for considering a
Guide Plan change. One reason to consider a Comprehensive Guide Plan Change could be the
impact of the Highway 212. The commercial and medium density housing, and noise berm, can
provide a transition between the Highway and the lower density areas on site.
A second reason could be impact on natural features. The relationship to Mitchell Lake is not
impacted because of the existing Miller Park and land dedication it the northeast corner which
preserve slopes and natural vegetation providing a buffer to the Lake. There are existing wetland
areas on the property which will be preserved. The commercial and multiple family portions of
the property do not impact natural features as much as the R1-9.5 zoning proposed in the north
central portion of the project. Since tree loss is 62%, raises a question as to the appropriateness
of small lot zoning in the area of Blocks 3, 4 and 5. This area has the greatest concentration of
Oak and Cottonwood trees.

A third reason for considering the change in the Comprehensive Guide Plan could be if the
projected traffic volumes are less than what was anticipated for this area. The traffic study for
the Southwest Area Plan was based on an anticipated land use mix of 230 single family homes
and 61,000 sq. ft. of commercial. Although 61,000 sq. ft. of commercial in this area is much
larger than neighborhood commercial, it was included in the traffic study, because of expected
requests for intense commercial uses at the Dell Road interchange and the worst case scenario
needed to be analyzed to see if it would change the design of the interchange. Staff did caution
Developer's and owners that traffic projections would not be the only reason to consider up to
61,000 sq. ft. of commercial. As a point of comparison, 230 single family homes and 61,000
sq. ft. of general commercial would generate approximately 1100 trips per day during the peak
hours (to and from work). Based upon the concept plan, total traffic expected to be generated
from this PUD would be approximately 850 peak hour trips. The Comprehensive Guide Plan
density of 21/2 units per acre, would be 235 p.m. peak hour trips. Dell Road and Highway 5
have the capacity to handle the amount of traffic projected for this site.
A fourth reason for considering a Comprehensive Guide Plan change could be how well the
project provides external and internal transition. The Planning Commission has previously
determined where there are similar land uses, (existing homeowners,) there must be an
appropriate transition. Due to existing R1-13.5 zoning to the west, the 13.5 zoning along Erin
Bay is a logical transition. External transition is more difficult to the 5 acre lots on the north
side of 82nd Street. The expected land use for these 5 acre lots, due to zoning for Jamestown
and Shores of Mitchell Lake would be R1-13.5 zoning. The lots on the south side of 82nd Street
should be R1-13.5 zoning.
The physical connections between external land uses are roads and storm drainage. The existing
drainage patterns will be maintained between adjoining land uses. The distribution of traffic is
low traffic volumes where there are connections to other neighborhoods, for example the
matching of low density residential to low density residential. It is also to separate commercial
and multiple family traffic from single family by directing traffic to Deerfield Court.
Internal transition is made by using the existing wetlands and proposed ponding as a setback
between the low density residential and multiple family. The question of transition between
multiple and commercial is more difficult to achieve because of the closer proximity. A visual
mitigation to the east is made with a large berm. The transition is not successful to the north
due to a shorter setback and no berming.

PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT CONCEPT
The PUD is a mixed use residential and commercial development totalling 326 units on 94.5
acres at an overall density of 3.46 dwelling units per acre and 19,670 square feet of
neighborhood commercial. The residential component of the PUD depicts 15 R1-13.5 lots, 79
R1-9.5 lots, and 232 multiple family units.
The Planned Unit Development Concept can be modified to mitigate Comprehensive Guide Plan
impacts. These changes include:
1. To provide a better transition to the land uses to the north, lots on
the south side of W. 82nd Street, should be a minimum lot size of
R1-13.5 zoning.
2. To reduce the tree loss from 62% to the City's average of 30%,
Blocks 3, 4 and 5 should be R1-13.5 lots or greater.
3. To provide a transition between commercial and multiple, restrict
the intensity of the commercial uses proposed to neighborhood
uses,create architectural compatibility between the commercial and
multiple, and eliminate the proposed ponding along Deerfield
Court and replace with the berming. Storm water can be directed
towards NURP ponds on the northeast corner of the property.
REZONING TO R1-13.5
The proposed R1-13.5 area is Blocks 5 and 6 on either side of Erin Bay. All of these lots meet
the minimum dimensional and square footage requirements of the R1-13.5 Zoning District.
REZONING TO R1-9.5
The lots proposed to be zoned R1-9.5 are generally north and east of proposed Dell Road.
Waivers are requested for street frontage less than 55 feet on a cul-de-sac and for less than 90
feet on a corner lot. Since the R1-9.5 are does not provide an adequate transition to the
residential areas to the north, and results in high tree loss, no waivers should be granted as part
of the PUD District Review.

Staff Report
Centex Deerfield
May 7, 1993
REZONING TO RM-6.5
Rezoning to RM-6.5 requires a density waiver from 6.7 units per acre permitted in this district
to 10.64 units per acre. The multiple family area is similar to the Carmody proposal. The net
density exceeded 10 units per acre but the overall density on the project was 6.7 units per acre
considering the open space dedicated to the City. The transfer of density from the single family
and open space in this PUD creates a gross density of 3.46 units per acre overall.
The buildings as proposed meet the minimum setback for structure from Deerfield Court. Due
to a private road (waiver), there is no minimum building setback requirement. The Staff would
recommend a 30 foot setback along the private internal loop road.
There are parking setback waivers requested from Deerfield court. Since a higher density is
requested than allowed per City code, it should not result in other waivers which make parking
difficult to screen and reduces land area needed for landscaping adjacent to Deerfield Court. The
parking within the front yard setback should be eliminated and relocated on site so that green
space can be maintained.
The City code requirement for parking is based upon one internal garage space and one free-
standing parking space per unit. A two and one-half space credit is given for double car garages
and 1.25 parking space credit for the single car garages. The total parking required according
to code is 464 parking spaces. The site plan depicts a total of 532 spaces. The additional spaces
are for guests.
The rezoning to RM-6.5 should be conditioned upon building architecture. As with the Carmody
project, considering the number of units within this project, there should be a minimum of 4
different material and color schemes to provide variety.
COMMERCIAL SITE PLAN REVIEW
There is no request to rezone the property to neighborhood commercial. The proponent is asking
for a Comprehensive Guide Plan change and concept approval. It will be some time before the
proponent is prepared to come back to the Planning Commission with detailed construction plans,
architecture, and other site planning details. One reason to consider a change in the
Comprehensive Guide Plan to neighborhood commercial is based on performance standards
which make the project transition to residential. A way to make this project transition better to
the surrounding residential would be to stipulate that future architectural plans be designed to be
�, �, - 25
Staff Report
Centex Deerfield

similar to the residential character of the multiple family areas. This would mean compatibility
in terms of roof pitch, roof lines and exterior materials.
Another reason to consider the Guide Plan Change and the concept approval is the visual
relationship to the adjoining uses. Even though the adjoining residential areas are multiple, they
are living quarters and should be afforded the same sort of care as if it were a low density single
family area. This means that the site lines into the project should be blocked by berming and
heavy landscaping. The use of ponding area on the south side of Deerfield Court does not
provide the opportunity for berming and plantings to create a visual transition. Since there is
an alternative way to route storm sewer with pretreatment, these areas can be used for berming.
The uses proposed are general retail. In most neighborhood commercial areas there is
convenience-gas, however, the size of these stores are generally smaller. The use of three gas
pump islands relates more to highway traffic than serving the immediate neighborhood area.
Reducing the number of pump islands from three to two and the size of the convenience store
would be one way of making a commercial use fit in. The alternative to this would be to
consider that the proposed gas convenience store is adjacent to 212 and the retail buildings
berming, and plantings could provide the necessary visual transition to the north. This would
have to be substantial, since pump islands are very bright at night time and lighting could be a
nuisance.
The amount of parking provided on site meets City code requirements, however, the relationship
to parking is not practical. A large portion of the parking in the southeast corner of the project
is away from the retail buildings. While the use of an all-building front is appropriate visually,
it may be better to shift the retail buildings to the east adjacent to the berm and provide parking
in front in a consolidated manner. The retail buildings could also be shifted slightly to the south,
which provides more green area to buffer the multiple areas to the north.
The total traffic generated from the commercial development is 621 trips during the peak hour.
The restaurant and the convenience gas are the highest generators of traffic accounting for 84%
of the trips. Convenience-gas is in a good location adjacent to Highway 212 and Dell Road.
The Engineering Department has indicated that the use of two-way traffic at this location will
contribute to people making a U-turn on Dell Road to get back out to 212. An "in only"
driveway could relieve some of the traffic congestion at the intersection.
SHORELAND ORDINANCE
The Shoreland Ordinance requires that single family lots within 150 feet of the Lake meet a
minimum lot size of 40,000 sq. ft. The Developer is proposing to dedicate additional land in
the northeast corner such that these lots would be beyond the 150 setback. The shoreland
6
V.6. - 26
Staff Report
Centex Deerfield
May 7, 1993
ordinance requires a minimum 30,000 sq. ft. lot size for multiple family lots within 150 feet of
the Lake. None of these lots are within 150 feet of the Lake.
OFFICIAL MAP FOR HIGHWAY 212
The location of Highway 212 through Eden Prairie was mapped by the State Highway
Department and approved by the City Council based upon a recommendation from the Planning
Commission. The commercial site, and portions of the multiple family site are within the 212
right-of-way. The interchange has been more clearly defined as part of the Dell Road Feasibility
Study resulting in less area needed and in a different location from the official map. The
Developer has requested an amendment to the official map which is being processed by the
Engineering Department. It also requires an official action from the City. The City Staff would
recommend that the Planning Commission support an amendment to the official map.
GRADING AND TREE LOSS
The entire site will be graded to accommodate development. No fill is proposed within the
wetland areas. The grading impact on this property is tree loss. There are a total of 1509 inches
of significant trees on the property, mostly Cottonwood and Oak. The grading plan as proposed
removes 62% or 932 inches. If the City accepts a 62% tree loss, tree replacement would be
768 inches. Due to the concentration of trees in the central portion of the site, larger lots may
reduce tree loss to the City average of 30%.
LANDSCAPING
The amount of landscaping required for this project is a caliper inch requirement based upon
building square footage for multiple family, and tree replacement. The caliper inch requirement
is 1111 inches. Tree replacement at a 62% tree loss is 768 inches.
STORM WATER QUALITY
The grading and utility plans depict a storm water quality system of storm sewer pipe and NURP
ponds. All water from Dell Road and the adjoining streets will be pretreated before discharge
into wetland areas and Mitchell Lake. The proposed NURP pond area on City Park property
is not acceptable to the Parks Department because it decreases usable space for the park property
being dedicated. NURP ponds should be located on private property. The storm sewer, ponding
and drainage plans as proposed will require additional information in order to receive final
approval by the City Engineering Department. Pipe sizing, pond sizing, storm sewer and
drainage routing needs to be coordinated with the Engineering Department. The general
philosophy of storm drainage in this area is to route the western portion of the property through
7
v,g, - 2.7
Staff Report
Centex Deerfield
May 7, 1993
a NURP pond into the Rice Marsh Lake and the area north and east of Dell Road should be
routed through NURP ponding towards Mitchell Lake.
UTILITIES
Sewer and water service is immediately available adjacent to this site. Sewer and water issues
with this proposed development are providing a utility plan for the commercial area which shows
how the site could be connected, and providing a water main looping through the multiple family
area to connect with Jacques Curve.
SIDEWALKS. TRAILS AND PARKS
The Parks Department is accepting land in lieu of cash park fees. The developer is required to
grade the park area and construct trails on the north side of Rice Marsh Lake and along the
wetlands east of Dell Road. Sidewalks are required on Candlewood, Erin Road, West 82nd
Street and Deerfield Court.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET
No EAW is required for this project. In 1988 the City completed a connection actions EAW
which for this site, Wynfield, the Shores of Mitchell Lake and Jamestown. `The City declared
a fording of no significant impact. According to Environmental Quality Board regulations,
determining the need for EAW is based upon completing a mathematical formula for the number
of units and square footage of project according to the threshold categories. This ratio as
previously determined with the original EAW was 3.24. The new ratio calculated is 3.19. Since
this is less than the original ratio, no new EAW is required for this project.
TRAFFIC GENERATION
The Southwest Area Phasing Study shows traffic assignment zones 7, 8A, 11 and 12 as generally
within this area of the PUD. The traffic study made a projection of total traffic based upon 230
housing units and 61,000 sq. ft. of commercial. The total amount of traffic generated from this
area could be 1100 trips during the peak hour. This was 230 trips for the residential 970 for
commercial. The traffic generation from this proposal is 926 p.m. peak hour trips which is less
than the original projection for the area but still is higher than the comprehensive guide plan
traffic of 230 p.m. peak hour trips. The traffic can be accommodated on Dell Road. Dell Road
is a minor arterial that can handle up to 20,000 trips per day. Dell Road and Highway 5 will
8

Centex Deerfield

operate at level of service D and the interchange at Highway 212 will operate at a level of
service C.
Traffic generation is concentrated in the multiple family and commercial area off Deerfield
Court. There is no direct connection between this area and other residential areas within the
PUD or adjoining subdivisions.
CONCLUSION
Without any changes made to the project, there are reasons to consider the Comprehensive Guide
Plan Change and the PUD. The change to medium density residential and commercial is not out
of character for what was envisioned for the southwest area and affordable housing is a goal of
the community. Based upon the number of housing units envisioned within the southwest area
(2500), a small amount of neighborhood commercial could be supported.
The City requires compelling reasons for changing the Comprehensive Guide Plan. There are
transition and environmental impacts which require mitigating solutions. In order to justify the
Guide Plan Change, the project should be modified as follows:
1. To provide a better transition to the low density areas to the north, there should
be R1-13.5 zoning on the south side of W. 82nd Street.
2. To provide a better relationship to natural features on site, there should be larger
lots in the central portion of the project to reduce tree loss from 62 to 30%. High
tree loss is an indication that densities are too high.
3. To provide a better relationship between the commercial and multiple family uses,
the building architecture should reflect a residential character using similar roof
pitches, colors and exterior building materials. In addition, to provide a better
transition to the multiple family areas, there should be berming and heavier mass
plantings of plant materials. It was suggested that convenience gas relates more
to 212 than the neighborhood. Fewer gas pumps would be better or improve the
site plan. The site plan for the commercial area should also be changed to
provide a better relationship between parking and building.

4. Eliminate the waivers for setbacks and street frontages. Waivers are an indication
the overall plan is too tight. Density contributes to lack of transition and higher
tree loss.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
The Planning Staff presents the following alternative courses for consideration by the Planning
Commission:
If the Planning Commission believes that compelling reasons exist for changing the
Comprehensive Guide Plan, from low density residential to medium density residential
and neighborhood commercial, then approval of the PUD, Rezoning, and Preliminary
Plat should be predicated upon conditions of the Staff Report dated May 7 and based
upon the following conditions:
1. Prior to review by the Council, the proponent shall:
A. Modify the rezoning and preliminary plat request to reflect R1-13.5 zoning
on the south side of 82nd Street.
B. Modify the preliminary plat and rezoning request to look at larger lot sizes
in the central portion of the project to reduce tree loss to 30%.
C. Eliminate all waivers for parking setbacks and street frontage.
D. Modify the commercial site plan to provide a better relationship between
parking and buildings on site and provide a better transition to the multiple
family areas to the north. Modify the drainage and utility plan to provide
for sewer and water connections to the commercial site and provide
looping of the water main through the site.
2. Prior to final plat approval the proponent shall:
A. Provide detailed storm water runoff, erosion utility plans for review by the
City Engineer.
B. Provide detailed storm water control and erosion control plans for review
by the Watershed District.

B. Density waiver in the RM-6.5 Zoning District from 6.7 to 10.64 units per
acre.
5. The Guide Plan Change to Neighborhood Commercial and PUD Concept is

general retail. Approval is based on a requirement for a residential character with
similar roof pitches and exterior materials and colors to the multiple family
portion of the project, and provided there is an adequate visual transition to the
multiple family areas to the north which block site lines and minimizes lighting.
Changes in the site plan to address these and other site planning issues identified
in this report may result in less square footage.
II. If the Planning Commission is comfortable in general with the Comprehensive Guide Plan
and PUD Concept, but feels there should be changes made in`the Planned Unit
Development Concept and rezoning request based on transition, and tree loss, then one
option would be to continue the item to review plan changes before passing this item on
to the City Council.
III. If the Planning Commission feels that compelling reasons for changing the
Comprehensive Guide Plan do not exist and that this site is not appropriate for multiple
and commercial uses and that the plan as proposed creates impacts on site and
surrounding land uses without mitigation, then the appropriate action would be to
recommend denial of the request.

Community Development Variance request #95-06
Chris Enger Sign size
Michael Franzen
Steve Durham
REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION:
The City Council is requested to review the Board of Adjustment and Appeals denial of Variance
request #95-06 which occurred on January 12, 1995.
OVERVIEW: Tandem Properties came to City Staff in fall of 1994 arsipresented a sign plan for "The
Big Woods". The sign package included signs with written communication and metal statuary/symbols.
Staff reviewed the plan and based on the sign code determined the statuary/symbols to be a sign.
The code definition for a sign is "Sign - Any letter, word or symbol, devise, poster, picture, statuary,
reading matter or representation in the nature of advertisement, announcement, message or visual
communication, whether painted, posted, printed, affixed or constructed, including all associated
brackets, braces, supports, wires and structures which is displayed for informational or communicative
purposes.
Staff directed Tandem Properties to the Board of Adjustment and Appeals for a sign variance based on
sign size. Another option included revisiting the Planned Unit Development (PUD) process. In both
review processes a hardship or reasons to justify a larger sign would be in order.
The Board reviewed the following request:
1) To permit two metal statuary/symbol signs at one street entrance. City Code permits one Area
Identification Sign per street entrance.
2) To permit each metal statuary/symbol signs at 96 square feet and 12' in height. City Code permits
a maximum sign size of 32 sq. ft. and 6' in height.
3) To Permit two Area Identification Signs entitled "The Big Woods" at 46 sq. ft. and " A Sheltering
Historic Forest" at 11.5 sq. ft. at one street entrance. City Code Maximum sign size is 32 sq. ft. and
one sign per street entrance.
•vIui-. P . - 1
At the Board meeting Jim Ostensen (Tandem Representative) did indicate the statuary/symbols were
reduced in size from 8'x 12' (96 sq. ft.) to 6' x 12' (72 sq. ft.)
Board members listed the following concerns and comments:
• The option to down size the signs was mentioned to the applicant.
• Concern related to the placement of the statuary/symbol 12' high located on a 4' retaining wall.
• Could there be a reduction in scale of the request and still maintain the effectiveness of the sign?
ISSUES: The City Council may be discussing two issues in review of this variance request.
• The size and number of signs at the Big Woods entrance at Dell Road.
• To determine if the metal statuary/symbols are considered a sign based on code definition.
SUPPORTING INFORMATION
• Board of Adjustment and Appeals Staff Report dated January 12, 1995.
• Board of Adjustment and Appeals minutes dated January 12, 1995.
• Information from Tandem Properties.
Action/Direction: The City Council may review the variance request in the options listed
below or choose some other option.
1. Support the Board of Adjustment and Appeals decision to deny variance request#95-
06. Make a determination that the statuary/symbol is a sign as defined in the sign
code under definitions.
2. Reverse the Board of Adjustment and Appeals decision to deny variance request #95-
06 and allow the sign as requested. Make a determination that the statuary/symbol is
not considered a sign as defined by the sign code.
3. Reverse the Board of Adjustment and Appeals decision to deny variance request #95-
06 and allow a modified version of the sign request.

size of 32 sq. ft. and 6' in height. 3) To Permit two Area Identification signs entitled
"The Big Woods" at 46 sq. ft. and " A Sheltering Historic Forest" at 11.5 sq ft. at
one street entrance. City Code Maximum sign size is 32 sq ft. and one sign per
street entrance.
BACKGROUND - The property under variance request consideration is located in west
central Eden Prairie and east of the new Dell Road. The approximate 40 acre site, known
during the development process as Brentwood and now known as The Big Woods,
includes a plat of 53 single family lots zoned R1-13.5 and R1-22.
The site is characterized by significant wooded areas. During the development process
the City with the Developer worked on a plan to preserve significant trees and reduce the
amount of tree loss. Part of that plan included the development of large lots, hence the
majority of the site with a minimum lot size of 1/2 acre or more.
VARIANCE REVIEW - The applicant has put together a permanent sign plan which
highlights the fact that this area is heavily wooded with historic woods. Below is an
outline of the City code requirement and the request by the applicant:
REQUEST#1 and#2: The applicant request placement of(#1)two metal sculpture signs
at the entrance of Dellwood and Big Woods Lane. City Code permits one sign per street
entrance. The applicant questioned if the sculptures would be considered a signs. A sign
is defined as "any letter, word, or symbol, device, poster, statuary, reading matter or
representation in the nature of advertisement etc...". The metal tree symbol is, therefore,
considered sign. The symbols will be 96 sq ft each and (#2) 12' in height. Location will
be above signs which will read with letters "The Big Wood" and "A scenic historic
wood".
REQUEST #3: The applicant request to place one script sign on a flagstone retaining
wall at the entrance of Dell Road and Big Woods Lane. City code permits one sign per
street entrance. "The Big Woods" sign will be 46 sq. ft. City code maximum is 32 sq.
ft. The sign will meet the height requirement. The second script sign will read "A
Historic Forest" at 11.5 sq. ft. Although this sign does not exceed the size the total for
both signs is 57.5 sq. ft.
CONCERNS - It can be subjective to how much sign is too much or how much sign is
too little. Signs can also be interpreted in many ways by different people. Ultimately a
sign no matter how large or how small is used for communication.
Staff is using as its base for review, the sign code, for interpretation. The sign code has
been used since 1969 and altered minimally over the years. Thus far the code has worked

well for the community and has allowed appropriate identification for residential
subdivisions.
A variance is granted when there are unique circumstances to a property which would
warrant something (usually larger or closer) than what code permits. The applicant has
expressed that the average person does not know the significance of the historic nature
of the woods in this subdivision. The sign "The Big Woods" may not have meaning
without the tree sculptures or noted historic sign.
In many instances it is the physical woods themselves that are the best communicator of
their significance.
The Board will need to decide if the amount the variances requested is supported by the
unique characteristic of this site. Should the Board believe there is a unique feature to
the site then are all the signs requested appropriate.
The Board may choose one of the following options:
1. Approve variance request#95-06 as submitted finding the unique features of large
historic woods supports the greater number of signs and sign sizes. Condition:
That the sign, symbol and retaining wall do not interfere with traffic site lines on
Dell Road.
2. Approve variance request #95-06 with amendments. (EXAMPLE) Permit one
sculpture sign and one script sign.
3. Deny variance request #95-06 finding no unique circumstance has been
sufficiently supported to grant a sign variance.

Approved minutes from the January 12, 1995 Board of Adjustment
and Appeals meeting for Variance Request #95-08.
G. Request #95-06 by Tandem Properties for the
intersection of Brentwood Road and Dell Road 1) To
permit two metal symbol signs at one street entrance.
City Code permits one Area Identification sign per
street entrance. 2) To permit each metal symbol sign
at 96 square feet and 12' in height. City Code permits
a maximum sign size of 32 square feet and 6' in height.
3) To permit two Area Identification signs entitled
"The Big Woods" at 46 square feet and "A Sheltering
Historic Forest" at 11.5 square feet at one street
entrance. City Code Maximum sign size is 32 square
feet and one sign per street entrance.
Durham noted that the symbols were 8' by 12' , and now
they are 6' by 12' . It's been reduced from 96 square
feet to 72 square feet.
Jim Ostenson, Tandem Properties, reviewed his variance
request with the Board. They are proposing two
sculptures to display on a retaining wall at the
entrance to "The Big Woods" project because they wanted
to do something special. He noted that these
sculptures are designed to convey a sense of arrival to
"The Big Woods", that you are entering some place
special. While the height of the sculptures is
essential to create this feeling, their dominance is
buffeted by the brown color and heavily wooded
background. Their problem with the ordinance is that
because there are trees there and they are associated
with "The Big Woods", it becomes part of the sign. The
lettering on the signs themselves will be attached to
the retaining wall saying, "Big Woods", and underneath
to say, "Historical Forest. " They do not have a
hardship, but if there is any hardship, it's in the
language contained within the ordinance which prevents
something like this from being done.
He noted that there is a 60% chance that the signs are
going to be a little smaller at five feet wide instead
of six feet.
Durham noted that this is the first request where the
City has had a statutory symbol come up for the Board
review.
Weeks asked how the City Code defines sculpture versus
signage. Durham replied that it doesn't distinguish
it.
Dye questioned whether the City allows mortar, stone,

or any elevation or width, to depict a development.
Durham responded that you can have it in the form of
fencing, and the fence maximum is six feet high.
Vasaly expressed concern about from where the 12 feet
starts. Durham replied that it's 12 feet from the
retaining wall.
Nelson commented that the Board does allow various
kinds of symbols incorporated into developments. She
expressed concern of whether signs in the windows would
be allowed or sculptures in the window. Durham replied
that signs in windows can not be more than 10% of the
window area.
Nelson asked if they would be allowed to do small gate
houses on either side. Durham responded yes, that they
would have to meet the structure setback.
Dunham asked if any consideration was given to just
having signs on one side of the entrance. Ostenson
replied that they wouldn't have a problem with that.
Dunham questioned how big the lettering is. Ostenson
replied that it's one foot, 12 inches for "The Big
Woods", and eight inches for the Historical Forest.
Dunham commented that the letter size could be reduced
to a more residential scale. Also, the height of this
sculpture, 12 feet above a four foot retaining wall is
very high.
Ostenson noted that the ground behind is built up on a
berm and the trees are on top of the berms. Therefore,
it is probably half-way up the trees. It's not sitting
out there all by itself. It's 16 feet from the ground.
Dunham expressed concern about an explanation of it
being an historical forest for the people that stop and
read it.
Nelson commented that this can be reduced in scale and
still be effective.
Ostenson noted that they would loose "The Big Woods"
essence if they were reduced.
Dye asked if there was any consideration for a see-thru

sign that just says "The Big Woods". He said if they
stay within the Code they could get a lot of printing
on it.
Ostenson commented that if this were not trees, they
would not have a problem.
Lynch commented that she appreciates what they are
trying to do, but is having a hard time trying to find
the hardship.
Weeks noted that he is more concerned by the location
than the structure itself. He would be more
comfortable with one and the reason is the fact that
they have two on each side. He also noted that the
letters can be reduced.
Vasaly commented that it seems to be more advertising.
She feels it would be setting a dangerous precedent to
call it art.
Weeks suggested getting input from the Planning
Commission, Arts Commission, and Heritage Preservation
Commission.
Weeks Suggested a continuance by the Board. No motion
for continuance was made by the Board members.
Ostenson noted again that if they comprise it too much,
you start loosing the effect. To reduce in scale would
not have the same effect.
Nelson expressed concern about the original dimensions
being eight foot wide and 12 foot high, being reduced
to five foot wide and 12 foot high.
Weeks opened the public hearing.
Weeks closed the public hearing.
Moeller commented that if they want to maintain the
historical significance, that's a different issue to be
held by a different body.
MOTION: Moeller moved that the Board deny variance
request #95-06, the reason being by the proponent that
there is no hardship by the proponent's own admission.
Lynch seconded the motion and it passed with one
opposed by Weeks.

EDEN PRAIRIE CITY COUNCIL AGENDA DATE: 3/21/95
SECTION: Reports of Advisory Boards ITEM NO. IX. A
DEPARTMENT: Parks, ITEM DESCRIPTION: Recommendation to Name Newly Acquired
Recreation and Facilities Conservation Areas
Robert A. Lambert
BACKGROUND:
The City has recently acquired 55 acres on the Minnesota River bluffs from Lynn Charlson,
approximately 68 acres from the Klein family and Darill Peterson along the Minnesota River bluffs in
the southwest corner of Eden Prairie and approximately 16 acres of Big Woods property along Riley
Creek from Kathy Trost, with an additional 20 acres that will be acquired from Peter George in the
same vicinity within the next two months. All three sites have been acquired to conserve the natural
resources of those sites and should be designated conservation areas within the Park and Open Space
System Plan. Two of those sites, the woods along Riley Creek and the native prairie and oak savannah
on the Minnesota River bluffs are such high quality sites that the Department of Natural Resources has
indicated they would be accepted as DNR Scientific and Natural Areas, if the City wishes to negotiate
with the DNR for that status.
Staff believes it is important to officially name these parcels of property as soon as possible for
references on maps that are being developed and to clarify for the public that these are conservation
areas, rather than "parks." The conservation designation by the City's Park and Open Space System
Plan includes the following definition:
"Primary function/user groups: uses are limited to passive hiking or other trail modes consistent with
resource preservation, conservation for specific management requirements necessary to maintain the
area's natural characteristic.
Locational characteristics: Conservation designations should be used in areas of special environmental
sensitivity, including creek valleys, wetlands, bogs, lake front views, unusual vegetation or unique bluff
areas.
Typical facilities: Developed facilities should be limited to elements compatible with resource
preservation or management and may include passive trails, interpretive signing, controlled vehicle or
trail access or signing."
RECOMMENDATION:
The policy the City has used in the past regarding naming parks has been to generally name parks after
a major land feature associated with the park that would clearly indicate the location of the park, for
example, Riley Lake Park, Staring Lake Park, etc. If a dominant natural feature was not associated
with the park, the park could also be named after the major neighborhood or area of the City that it
1
served. Many parks are named based on the name of the development that donated the land, for
example, Hidden Ponds Park, Wyndham Knoll Park, etc. The Council also indicated that if a road or
street indicated the location of a park that too was an acceptable reason for naming a park, for example,
Homeward Hills Park, Franlo Park, etc.
Miller Park was named after the Miller family; mainly, because the Miller's agreed to sell it to the City
for significantly less money than they were being offered developers at the time, and their family was
the original owner of the property.
There have been some discussions over the years regarding the pros and cons of naming a park after
individuals who have contributed significantly to the park system. The consensus of past Councils was
that many people have contributed to the development of the park system and they were uncomfortable
starting a policy of naming parks after people.
When Dick Anderson passed away last year, several members on the Council suggested that the City
consider naming a park or conservation area after Dick, who had devoted the last 24 years of his life
to the City of Eden Prairie's park and open space system. As a staff person who worked closely with
Dick for the last 18 years, I can honestly say that no other individual had the impact Dick has had on
how this community has preserved it most precious natural resources. One could easily name a half
dozen people that have provided significant contributions to the park and open space system over this
last 24-25 year critical period of Eden Prairie's growth; however, none were involved that entire length
of time, as Dick was, nor were they so consistently supportive and involved on every issue that has
come before Eden Prairie relating to parks and recreation. Dick developed a reputation with developers
and residents as a tenacious defender of Eden Prairie's natural resources. Everyone knew that he would
"go to battle" to preserve hills, trees, lakes, creeks, etc., and that he would usually prevail. Dick's
presence on the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission, and later the City Council, made
the work of staff much easier because of his consistent and strong voice regarding the value of
protecting our natural resources.
The 68 acre site acquired from the Klein family and Darril Peterson, may eventually be as large as 100
acres of land on the Minnesota River bluffs. This property contains approximately 20 acres of a Big
Woods remnant, approximately 15 acres of native prairie, a variety of hardwoods scattered throughout
the main valley and up some slopes, an artisan fed creek that runs year around, and magnificent bluffs
overlooking the Minnesota River valley. All of these features were extremely precious to Dick
Anderson, and the Minnesota River Valley Refuge and Recreation Areas was a project that he strongly
indorsed from its inception. I can think of no other site in Eden Prairie that represents the variety of
land forms and natural resources that Dick fought so strongly to preserve.
While staff recognizes the concerns of some individuals in establishing a precedent naming parks after
people, staff believes that Dick Anderson established such a continuous and consistent effort to protect
Eden Prairie's resources that naming a conservation area in his honor would be a very good precedent.
His effort and record of support are one that few, if any, individuals are likely to match in the future.
For this reason, staff would recommend the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission and
the City Council consider naming the site acquired from the Klein family and Darril Peterson the
2
Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area
Staff believe that past City policies of naming parks after their natural features as an identifying location
for the park should be followed in naming the other two conservation areas. Staff would recommend
naming the land acquired from Kathy Trost and hopefully will be acquired from Peter George in the
near future the Riley Creek Woods, and naming the 55-acre native prairie and oak savannah site
acquired from Lynn Charlson the Prairie Bluff Conservation Area.

Hilgeman expressed concern about the tree replacement is not the same
as the significant trees that were taken down. Simonsted noted that they
have planted ash, sugar maple, Norway maple and pine oaks because they
have to think about the soils and what grows the best. She also noted that
what survives in these soils are sugar sand.
Hilgeman commented that since red oaks and cotton woods were growing
for a long time, the soils would be fine with it. Simonsted noted that
cotton wood has not been a tree that people typically want in their yards.
Fox noted that in all the parks they always plant a diversity of trees to
keep a healthy mix of trees for disease and insect concerns. This also
adds more color to the landscape.
MOTION: Kube-Harderwijk moved to approve the recommendations of
the Staff Report dated February 28, 1995, with a conservancy easement
on outlot A, and any other areas within the lots that are deemed savable
and reasonable, and as much erosion control as reasonable per
conservancy easement planting for it. Brown seconded the motion and it
passed 5-0-0.
VI. OLD BUSINESS
A. None.
VII. NEW BUSINESS
A. Recommendation to Name Newly Acquired Conservation Skes
Staff referred the Commission to a memo dated February 27, 1995, from
Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Facilities.
Lambert noted that the City has acquired all or part of three new
conservancy sites, and the City is making new maps. Staff would
recommend naming the site acquired from the Klein family and Darril
Peterson as, the Richard T. Anderson Conservation Area. All of the
features of this site were extremely precious to Dick Anderson, and this
was a project that he strongly endorsed. Staff believes that Dick
Anderson established such a continuous and consistent effort to protect
Eden Prairie's resources that naming a conservation area in his honor
would be a very good precedent.
Staff would also recommend naming the land acquired from Kathy Trost
and from Peter George in the near future, the Riley Creek Woods
Conservation Area. They would also recommend naming the 55 acres
native prairie and oak savannah site acquired from Lynn Charlson, the
Prairie Bluff Conservation. These two sites would be named after their
natural features as an identifying feature as done in the past.
Koenig noted that she thinks it's a wonderful idea of honoring Dick
Anderson in this manner. She said she supports it 100% and is not
concerned about setting a precedent. She also noted that it's a small thing
for the City to give back to him for everything that he did for this
community.
Jacobson expressed concern about the Riley Creek Woods name. Lambert
noted that it's the Riley Creek Woods Conservation Area. There was a
mistake on the memo.
Kube-Harderwijk commented that she has concerns about naming places
after people, but in this case she feels it is a good idea.
Hilgeman noted that she is not pleased with the Riley Creek Woods
Conservation Area, and the Prairie Bluff Conservation names.
Jacobson recommended a dedication for the site named after Dick
Anderson.
Lambert noted that he would be recommending a ceremony for the
opening of that park sometime in the future. He commented that they
have $400.00 in a fund that people have donated to the City under Dick
Anderson's name. He would like to use it for developing an appropriate
plaque describing Dick's contributions at the entry where you would park
your car.
MOTION: Koenig moved to approve naming of the new acquired parcels
per the Staff Report of February 27, 1995. Kube-Harderwijk seconded
the motion and it passed 5-0-0.
B. Updated Five Year CIP
Staff referred the Commission to a memo dated February 10, 1995, from
Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation & Facilities.
Lambert noted that the City has a five year capital improvement plan that
they update on an annual basis. It is unrecognizable from year to year
because things change so much. This is a guide for Commission
members, Council members, and the public, to understand how much
money the City has, what they're doing with it, what they anticipate will
be coming in over the next five years, what they anticipate doing with it,
and what their priorities are for spending.
Attached is a list of five year CIP projects that are not included on the
list. However, Staff expects that some of these expenditures will come up

SECTION: REPORTS OF OFFICERS ITEM NO.XI.C D
DEPARTMENT: Parks, ITEM DESCRIPTION: Request for Modification of Policy on Removal
Recreation and Facilities� of Snow and Ice from Sidewalks and Trails
Stuart A. Fox ��/�tl-.
BACKGROUND:
This winter the staff received a letter from Pamela Tyner regarding the icy conditions that she
encountered on the Round Lake hike/bike path. (copy of the letter is attached) This issue was
discussed at the February 7, 1995 Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission meeting and
the memo for that meeting is also attached for you information.
COMMISSION ACTION:
Since the policy was proposed in January of 1990, this is the first request that the staff has received
regarding an extremely icy condition at the bridge approach area to Round Lake. Currently, under the
policy the Park Maintenance Department is clearing nearly 90 miles of trails and sidewalks throughout
the City. Each year this amount expands as more development takes place and major roadways have
trails placed adjacent to them.
The recommendation of the commission was to review the policy with the City Attorney to make sure
that we are in line as far as liability issues and would limit our liability as defined by two decisions
from the Minnesota Court Appeals.
RECOMMENDATION:
Based on conversations with the City Attorney, the staff feels that a minor adjustment to item three and
four of the policy would be sufficient to take care of the ice issue at the bridge approach areas at Round
Lake and Staring Lake Park. The recommendation is to limit the use of chemical agents and sand to
the bridge approach areas at Round Lake Park for the pedestrian overpass to the high school and the
most southerly bridge at Staring Lake Park. Sanding and salt will only be used when ice is present.
This would be determined by periodic inspection of the areas by park maintenance personnel. If the
Council approves of this change in the policy, the staff would recommend adopting the policy dated
March 21, 1995 as the amended policy for removal of snow and ice from sidewalks and trails.

POLICY ON REMOVAL OF SNOW AND ICE
FROM SIDEWALKS AND TRAILS
March 21, 1995
The City annually budgets a sum of money for winter maintenance of certain public trails
and sidewalks. Taking into consideration the financial and personal resources available to
the City, it is the policy of the City to remove snow and ice from the most frequently used
trails and sidewalks in accordance with the standards set forth in this policy. The designated
trails and sidewalks to receive winter maintenance are depicted on the map that is attached to
this policy.
The following standards are adopted for providing winter maintenance to designated trails
and sidewalks:
1. The designated trails and sidewalks are normally plowed when the measured snowfall
depth exceeds one inch.
2. Snow removal should commence approximately 12 hours from the end of any snowfall
with an accumulated depth exceeding one inch. The designated trails and sidewalks
should be cleared as follows:
. Mode I trails within 24 hours
. Mode II trails within 48 hours
. Mode III trails as time permits
3. The designated trails and sidewalks should be cleared as thoroughly as possible but need
not be maintained to bare pavement.
4. Chemical agents and sand shall not be used in the snow removal process, except on the
bridge approach areas at Round Lake Park and Staring Lake Park(southerly bridge only)
when ice is present.
5. Snow removal should normally be done by park maintenance employees.
6. Snow removal may be conducted on a 24-hour basis, which may result in snow removal
equipment being operated in residential areas during the evening and early morning
hours.
7. In the event of equipment failure, extreme snowfall, or other unanticipated events, such
as park maintenance employees assisting street employees in snow removal from streets,
deviation from these standards may be appropriate.

Eden Prairie, MN 55344
RE: Icy sidewalk hazards
Dear City Council,
I'm writing concerning the serious safety hazards to pedestrians in the wake
of this week's ice storm. I take a daily walk around Round Lake, and today,
venturing out for the first time since the storm, was very disappointed and
disturbed when I realized no effort had been made to de-ice the glare ice
conditions I found around most of the lake. Of particular concern was the
steep hill on either side of the pedestrian bridge over Valley View Road that
leads to the High School. I nearly fell there, and in the short time I was
along that path saw two high school students fall.
In talking to Robert Lambert from the Department of Parks and Recreation, I
was told that the city has neither the manpower nor equipment to handle icy
paths, since it is rarely a problem except for a short time in the spring. In
addition, the sidewalk system is too extensive to handle and the decision has
been made that the city should not treat some of the paths if it cannot tackle
them all. Otherwise, it presents an appearance of safety.
I disagree. I think the fear of a theoretical increase in liability exposure
is paralyzing the common sense need to address areas where there is a high
likelihood of actual injury. Surely, certain areas deserve special
consideration. The path leading from the high school bridge is one of those,
given its unusual hazards and because it constitutes the "official" passage
for students over busy Valley View. Other worthy targets are the waiting
areas around bus stops and the curbsides immediately adjacent to major
intersections. Even major pedestrian routes like Valley View itself should be
considered. Not all of the citizens in Eden Prairie have access to cars.
If there is inadequate funding to handle these in an ice emergency, then I
encourage the City Council to consider using or creating a contingency fund.
These sidewalks in their condition will now present a serious safety hazard
throughout the winter. And with the advent of snow, it will be a hidden
hazard. I know that tax dollars are being asked to stretch farther and
farther these days, but it seems to me that public safety should be the
highest priority of government.
Please advise me of the meeting schedule for the Council when this issue may
be raised. My phone number is: 975-0157. Thanks for listening.
Sincerely,

MEMORANDUM
TO: Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
THROUGH: Bob Lambert,Director of Parks, Recreation and Facilities
FROM: Stuart A. Fog-, of Parks and Natural Resources
DATE: February 2, 1995
SUBJECT: Request for Removal of Ice from Hazardous Walkways at Round Lake
BACKGROUND: -
The City staff received a letter from Pamela Tyner following several phone conversations that
she had regarding the icy conditions she encountered on the Round Lake hike/bike path. Since
the Parks Department is operating under a policy approved by the City Council on removal of
snow and ice from sidewalks and trails, the staff felt that this item should be discussed with the
commission to give continuity to future decisions regarding winter maintenance of trails and
sidewalks.
POLICY REVIEW:
Attached is a copy of the policy approved in 1990 related to maintenance of trails and sidewalks.
The City currently maintains approximately 90 miles of trails and sidewalks during the winter
using the standards outlined on the attached policy. Item number four of the policy states that
chemical agents and sand should not be used in the snow removal process.
The primary reason that this item is listed in the policy is because of the great amount of time
and effort necessary to apply sand and salt to various trails and sidewalks throughout the City.
Currently, the Parks Department does not have a piece of equipment capable of putting sand and
salt on either the 5' or 8' trails and confine that material to the trail proper. In addition, during
spring cleanup there is a large amount of sand already being removed from major arterial streets
where the sanding process of the street ends up onto the sidewalk and trails. This process
requires over three weeks of work and considerable expenditure to make the trails safe for
summer use. In addition, wherever sand and salt are used in high traffic areas there is browning
or loss of grass due to the high salt content settling into the turf areas. Because of the adverse
effect the staff feels that additional sanding and salting would only lead to additional costs, as
well as additional turf damage.
Most of the trail and sidewalk clearing under the policy is done to assist people either walking
to and from school or along major arterial roadways. The third area is that we do maintain the
loop trail systems around Staring Lake and Round Lake Parks. For the past eight years we have
been able to maintain these trails with minimal difficulty despite a variety of winter freeze/thaw
— 2
conditions and snow conditions. This past month in January with the rain storm that landed on
with basically bare ground left a rather unique situation of glaze ice throughout the City, not
only on trails and sidewalks but also on parking lots and roadways.
ALTERNATIVES TO PERIODIC STORM MAINTENANCE:
1. The City could purchase a specific piece of equipment that would mount inside one of
our trucks that could drop spread sand and salt on 8' wide trails such as Round Lake and
Staring. The cost of this equipment would be approximately $4,000. This particular
piece of equipment would be mounted at the beginning of the season and would have to
stay on the truck for the entire winter. The advantages would be that we would have a
piece of equipment that could easily be used to sand and salt trails in the event of an
icing type storm. However, the disadvantage is that we use the trucks to plow snow
from the rinks and any sand or salt would have to be thoroughly cleaned out prior to
usage on rink maintenance.
The other option would be to take one truck out of the general rink maintenance fleet and that
would require the purchase of another truck to accommodate rink maintenance. The
approximate cost for another truck would be$18,000 to$20,000 equipped with a plow and sized
properly to accommodate the sand hopper.
2. The staff could load sand and salt in the back of one of the one ton dump trucks and
spread it by hand in the areas that are most heavily used; namely, Staring Lake and
Round Lake Parks. In addition, the staff would be able to concentrate sanding operation
on hill areas only and not just generally sanding all the trail area. The advantage of this
option is that there would be no additional cost for equipment; however, it would require
some manual labor to make sure that the sand is placed in the property areas and the
proper thickness.
RECOMMENDATION:
1. The staff would recommend that the policy on snow and ice removal from sidewalks and
trails be modified to incorporate the ability to use chemicals and sand on trails where
public safety is paramount.
2. The staff would recommend that we try the manual sanding methods primarily confining
the operation to Round Lake and Staring Lake because of the great amount of
recreational walkers, as well as individuals going to and from the high school that use
that trail system.
3. The staff will monitor complaints from citizens on other icy spots and evaluate the need
to apply chemical agents or sand to assist with safe usage of the trail and sidewalk
system.

PREFACE
For an artist there comes a moment when a little magic happens. Somewhere in the creation
process is a point where an original concept is visualized, the idea has become reality, and the
joy of accomplishment is felt.
' The same joy and excitement should be sensed by a community giving birth to a new civic
organization. To bring together all the diverse interests of a city and produce a cultural
' structure serving their needs is not only thrilling, but eventful. History is taking place. If the
founding parents structure it well, the child should grow and become an intrinsic part of the city
family.
' It is desirable for all functions of city government to provide a positive atmosphere. Growing
up in a secure environment will quickly strengthen the fledgling organization. The required
' bumps and bruises will disappear quickly and.occur less frequently. The following outline for
development of a new organization in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, is written taking many special
interests into account, but none more important than those of the organizations that already
' exist. It is hoped that everyone's role will be clearly defined, so the programs may develop
with clarity of purpose, and with cooperation between all.

' BACKGROUND
' The history of the Eden Prairie Art Center lies not in its actual operation, but in the
richness of effort from individuals from the City, Schools, Eden Prairie Foundation, and
' the community at large whose dedication has brought us to this point.
As outlined in the request for proposal from the city, it was decided by all parties
involved that the creation of a non-profit Arts Board would best meet the variety of
needs created by the opening, running and future growth of an Eden Prairie Art Center.
This proposal seeks to satisfy the request by the City to create a solid plan to launch
this profit d, s utur .
' individuals previousl ArtsyBoar involvedand into the
assure Committee
continuation for the Centerintothe forf thee ArtManys have
the
continued on in this proposal effort, along with the great help of the Eden Prairie
Foundation, and a professional arts administrator hired as a consultant on this project,
Pat Beckmann. We look forward to meeting to discuss this proposal in the January
interview period as outlined.

TAKING A LOOK AT THE COMMUNITY
' Key issues that should impact program and facility development
THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE IS EXPECTED TO REACH FULL DEVELOPMENT BY THE
YEAR 2010, AT 65,000 PEOPLE. THE POPULATION IN 1993 WAS 43,159.
This statistic indicates that an organization in its infancy in Eden Prairie must plan for future
.' growth. To be short-sighted now could mean becoming ineffective quickly. Careful and
prudent attention must be given to establishing an organizational and physical structure that is
cost effective for the present, but ready to grow when needed. Establishing a sound financial
base and a solid endowment program must be a top priority of the Charter Board of Directors.
MANY LARGE COMPANIES HAVE CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS IN EDEN PRAIRIE.
Corporate headquarters give a cultural facility unlimited potential.They bring well educated,
higher income employees as well as equally talented business associates and customers
' visiting from other states and countries. Corporate partnerships on special projects is of
special interest, but the entire year's calendar should concern itself with interests of th globs
corporation. Exhibitions on Asian, Arab, or Russian culture, for example, could be beneficial
for a traveling executive, and might be of interest to his or her foreign visitor.
Besides creating a stimulating calendar, an aesthetically designed cultural facility can be an
' extremely desirable departure from the office for informal meetings, and special business
receptions.
' THE EDEN PRAIRIE ART CENTER MUST BECOME A DESTINATION OF CHOICE.
Many people attend an art center or gallery for a specific reason. Some are attending a
' special performance or gallery exhibition, while others are students in a class, or buying from
the gift shop. People often seek out a cultural facility as entertainment for guests. Generally
these people are regular patrons who support the activities of their cultural organization in a
' variety of ways. As essential as this support is, it is also worthwhile for the organization to
attract a more casual type of visitor.
' A casual visitor is a citizen attracted to the facility by a relatively spontaneous impulse. A
pleasant visit spurs these people into attending more frequently, and helps to establish a
positive word-of-mouth reputation for the art center in the city.
' In Eden Prairie, the new art center will not be a part of the City Center complex, but part of the
Staring Lake complex of City parks, and summer entertainment, therefore care must be taken
' to attract visitors who have come to the area for other reasons. A bike rack might encourage
cyclists to stop for a short break. Complimentary puch or coffee might encourage summer
concert goers to come in and see the latest exhibit.it
' If care is taken to preserve the beauty of the grounds, while providing for the growing Art
Center, the site will continue to be an attraction for the community as well as an inspiration to
the artist. It will be a destination of choice for large numbers of people.
1

ACCORDING TO THE 1990 CENSUS, THE POPULATION BY RACE IS 96.4% WHITE, 2.1%
' ASIAN, 1.1% BLACK, AND LESS THAN 1%AMERICAN INDIAN.
This information leads us to speculate whether it might be difficult to attract and hire artists of
' color, unless they are experienced and/or comfortable working in a white environment. Other
information seems to indicate that the community would support multi-cultural projects, and it
certainly is a vital part of preparing people for the next decade. Minority residents should be
' encouraged to participate at all levels of the organization.
ACCORDING TO THE 1990 CENSUS:
I30.83% OF THE POPULATION IS AGE 0- 19 YEARS.
• 51.91% OF THE POPULATION IS AGE 20-44 YEARS.
13.88% OF THE POPULATION IS AGE 45- 64 YEARS.
' 3.38% OF THE POPULATION IS AGE 65 AND OVER.
These statistics have major implications. If it can be assumed that the increase in population
' expected before 2010 continues these trends, the people of Eden Prairie will be extremely
youthful, with few having reached retirement years.
' Volunteers are usually a key component of non-profit organizations because of limited
operating budgets. Most volunteers are over age 50, and many are over age 65. They are
vital, mature, and see the need to give something back to their community. Volunteers under
age 45 are usually parents who want to be directly involved with activities their children are
engaged in, e.g. school activities, coaching, church school teaching, club leadership, etc..
Once children leave fourth grade, parents become less active in direct volunteer efforts.
' It seems safe to assume, considering national trends and Eden Prairie's average single family
home prices in 1992 and 1993, that many families have dual income, thus depleting even
' further the numbers of people with the time available to volunteer.
These indications support building an organization that exists without a dependency on unpaid
' workers. Stipend interns, "Green Thumb"workers, and high school help should be considered
essential parts of the budget.
' Besides planning on a low volunteer base, the new Arts Council must understand the effect
age will have on program selection and event planning. In 1993, John Mather, Senior vice-
president of Marketing, Research, and Strategic Planning of Della Femina McNamee, in
' Pittsburgh, gave an address to the Minnesota Presenter's Network at the Minneapolis Institute
of Arts. His address was titled, "Marketing to Baby Boomers'; and it was loaded with valuable
information. Here are some key points:
a. Baby boomers are generally someone born between 1946- 1964, now age
30-48.
b. By the year 2000, they will control two-thirds of America's resources.
' c. Boomers are tremendously busy; constant and intense, sense of urgency to
everything, tremendous conflicts in time.
d. They are well traveled, and have extensive resources.
i
7
e. They are samplers, will try one of everything and have high expectations:
they DEMAND quality.
If. Baby boomers generally have weak family ties. They prefer to remain distant,
stay emotionally neutral, and establish no group identity.
' Mathem's address seems to indicate that successful programs will depend on several things:
• in event planning, it must be remembered that busy people need convenience. The easier
it is for people to buy a ticket, send in a check, etc., the more likely they are to do it.
• a variety of programs and exhibitions with a reasonable short life could create more interest
in the organization, rather than fewer programs with longer life.
• people with a lot of resources and who travel extensively may more easily accept and
' support an organization with a global perspective.
• special care must be given to ensuring the highest quality standard.

Ill GENERAL PROGRAM PL
AN
The following outline is submitted as a suggested program plan because facilities must yet be
attained, renovation completed, and resources tapped. It is expected that as the
organization becomes operational and more visible, resources and opportunities will grow
steadily. The focus of programming will be on meeting the needs of the citizens in Eden
Prairie, and will be talent and opportunity driven. It is possible that in the scope of the
year's programs some events may be similar to those put on by other organizations, but
in a city the size of Eden Prairie, minor duplication of offerings might be welcomed, and
indeed, needed.
A. The Exhibition Program
1. The primary exhibition space will exhibit a variety of visual art shows depending on
availability, with qua ty being foremost(selection criteria.
' a. Media to include, but not limited to, of abli in a ercolor painting,
drawing, sculpture, mixed media, photography, folk art, design, print
making.
' b. A maximum of twelve shows will be exhibited each year, a minimum of six.
c. Solo shows, group exhibits and instructional shows will be offered
depending on availability, funding, and quality. Exhibits will be both
sponsored and produced by the Art Center.
d. Produced shows will be open for travel if at all possible, and if credit is given to
the Eden Prairie Art Center and its funding sources.
' 2. A secondary exhibition space will serve as a space for smaller exhibits
a. to provide space for amateur artists who need exposure but are not ready for
major exhibition.
' b. to provide space for area students who have excelled.
c. to provide space for exhibits intended for children, only.
d. to display crafts, or minor folk art, or other interesting historical or
' collectable design items.
3. Other wall space in offices, meeting rooms, reception areas can exhibit a permanent
collection, once established.
B. The Performing Arts Program
1. Space limitations will determine kinds of performing arts events.
2. Programs for adults may include, but are not limited to, poetry and book readings, film
or video productions,(piano recitals,!visual artist's talks.
3. Programs for children and adults may include, but are not limited to, creative story
' telling, creative dramatics, small vocal or instrumental groups, painting
demonstrations.
4. Seasonal events out-of-doors may include dance and other special groups such as
' jugglers, mime artists, etc.
C. The Educational Program
1.Art Classes for children and adults.
Quality Time would be a title given to classes for a child and a parent, where the
two can work as a team, or individually, to share the experience of making art. Paper
making, exploring abstract expressionism, building huge sculpture, are examples of fun,
exploratory processes that everyone can enjoy. These classes would be of service to
' 15
single (weekend)parents, parents having communication problems with a child, and
just busy people who find they need to get away from the house and phone to spend
' special time with a child. These classes would be marketed through social service
agencies, school counselors and general Art Center publications. If these Quality Time
classes are successful, other events and projects are possible. Bus trips to the
' Children's Theater, or other special events appealing to adults and children could be
tried.
2. Programs just for children
' a. Classes will be offered at three different levels: lower elementary, middle
school age, and high school. Subject of classes will depend on age level,
and what is already taught in the school curriculums, but emphasis will be
' on working with an artist in depth, in a particular media. Lower elementary
age children will do more exploratory projects, allowing for creativity and
freedom of expression. Some holiday classes will be held for children, or within the
' Quality Time program.
b. A special project for youth-at-risk will be explored. If funding can be
attained, special film and video artists will be brought to the Art Center to
' work with children identified through the TEENS ALONE program, and
other school counseling programs. Artists will teach them about making
and producing their own film or video statements. Videos can be
produced as a team, or individually, to give kids a creative venue, a
feeling of success, and some worthwhile recognition. The Art Center
will offer frequent and regular"showings"of work produced in this program.
' 3. Adult classes
Adult classes will offer a variety of offerings from visual art classes in painting and
drawing to workshops featuring Master Folk craftsman. Other special classes can
' range from dance and creative movement to writing, music appreciation, etc..
Courses will be designed depending of the talent, expertise, and availability of
qualified teachers.
4. General class information
' a. Classes offered will depend on availability of teachers, and on when proper
facilities and equipment are available.
b. Class tuition will be competitive with other organizations in the City, and other
art centers in the area.
c. Supplies will be included in the tuition, unless a special assessment is
required.
' d. Class length will depend on the age of the students, and materials-topic of
class.
e. A special fund will be established to provide scholarships for needy students,
' regardless of age. It is possible some educational programs will be free, if
funded through special grants.
1
16
D. Other Art Center Programs
The following are other services and programs the Art Center will try as the organization and
' facilities are developed. Success will depend on interest level of the community,
volunteers or teachers to lead groups, and available funds.
1. Art Happenings: The Art Center will keep current postings on all events
' throughout Minnesota, especially the greater Twin City area. Bus trips to events will be
offered.
2. Literature-reading groups-writer's group: Groups will discuss a wide range of
' topics, centered around literature as an art form. Current books or the groups own
writings can be monthly discussion items. Some local authors may be contracted to
speak or do a reading.
3. Artist-in-Residence: If space is available, a six month residency will be offered an artist
who meets the quality criteria. In exchange for free "rent", the artist will be available at
set times of the day, and week, for public visits, and will have many examples of his
work on display in the studio. The residency may, or may not, include a gallery show or
a teaching responsibility. An artist-in-residence should be a major attraction for
bringing visitors from all over the upper Midwest to the Art Center.
' 4. Photography Group: People interested in learning about photography as an art
form will have monthly meetings with a artist, or professional photographer. They will
team about composition, darkroom techniques, and have occasional field trips. They
will have yearly exhibitions.
5.General Gallery Talks: Some gallery exhibitions will feature the guest artist for
lectures, talks; but others may have the Director giving an hour gallery talk on the
' significance of the current exhibit. Besides adults, these talks could be attended by
children receiving education at home, with their parents.
6. Community Outreach: An effort will be made to extend the walls of the Art Center
' to other locations in the City. This can be done by: "Painting of the Month Series"
rotated in businesses and public lobbies, mini exhibits, mini concerts of dance, choral,
instrumental groups. Shopping malls and nursing homes am excellent locations for
' these programs.
7.Probable hours of operation for the first six months of the new Eden Prairie Art Center.
August through December, 1995
' Wednesday and Friday Thursday 10:00 am till 4:00 pm
10:00 am till 8:00 pm
Saturday 10:00 am till 2:00 pm •
' After 1995, the Art Center will be open on Tuesdays, 10:00 am-4:00 pm, and will
consider longer hours on Saturdays, and open Sundays.
8. The Garden and Gounds: The Executive Director will request that the Board President
' appoint a special Board Committee to work with the Executive Director to look into the
feasibility of developing a formal Art Center Garden on the property. Besides a wide
variety of flowers, plants and shrubs, the Garden could eventually contain walking
' paths, a fountain, and several peices of sculpture. The Garden would be a major
attraction for local and distant visitors, and would be advertised and marketed along
with the Art Center exhibition programs, artist-in-residency programs and the Gift Shop.
The remainder of the grounds would be used for parking, and an area would be set
aside for out-of-door classes and picnics. It would be wise to preserve a portion for
. wildlife.

' 17
E. THE ART CENTER GIFT SHOP
A. Thera are three important reasons for having a quality gift shop at the Eden Prairie Art
' Center.
1. It provides the service of having a place to obtain fine crafted gifts, art objects,
literature, and unusual items.
' 2. A good gift shop becomes an attraction and gives people another reason to stop at
the Art Center.
3. It raises funds, especially from out-of-town visitors or citizens needing gifts made
