RESOLUTION APPROVING FINAL PLAT FOR CITY WEST ACRES. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to approve the agenda as submitted and amended. Motion carried unanimously. Pidcock announced that Cluts, O'Brien & Strother received an Award of Excellence from the Minnesota Retailers Association for their design of the new Bachman's facility. She also announced that Southwest Metro Transit has been asked to submit an application to a nationally- funded four-year demonstration project on reverse commute and noted that all of the others invited were center-city based. ll. OPEN PODIUM Tom Gigowski, 7576 Carnelian Lane, expressed concern about the hiring practices of the City. He said he applied for a position with the City for which he was well qualified, and he has not yet received satisfactory answers to his requests for a copy of the City's hiring policy and details about the person who was hired. He said he thought the City should make available to the public a copy of the governing policies of the City, signed by the Mayor and City Manager, and copies of the Minutes of recent City Council meetings. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 2 December 6, 1994 Gigowski said he was treated very rudely and has asked that disciplinary action be taken against one particular City employee. Jullie said Staff had requested that the City Attorney review the situation and determine what information could legally be given to Mr. Gigowski. Assistant City Attorney Rosow said his office has reviewed Mr. Gigowski' s request for information, has advised Staff what should be produced, and has reviewed the hiring process and determined that it was fair and equitable. ill.MINUTES A.

RESOLUTION NO. 94-200 DESIGNATING RESPONSmLE AUTHORITY FOR DATA PRACTICES O. RESOLUTION NO. 94-201 APPROVING FINAL PLAT FOR CITY WEST ACRES Pidcock asked if item E could be postponed in order to reduce current expenditures. Lambert replied that this project has to be done now during the construction phase or it cannot be done at all. Pidcock said she would recommend that item L be turned over to the Arts Commission with a reminder that they should try to get the prints sold. Lambert said we have over half of the original 1000 prints remaining after eight years. He said the Heritage Preservation Commission has reviewed this and recommends that we use this means of selling the print. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 4 December 6, 1994 MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Harris, to amend item L of the Consent Calendar to limit to 100 the number of prints to be sold to the broker. Motion carried unanimously. Harris questioned increasing park dedication fees by only 5 % when compared to the amount charged by Chanhassen. Tenpas said he thought it was important to balance the ultimate costs to homebuyers with the revenue from park dedication fees. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Harris, to approve items A. -K, amended item L, and items M -0 of the Consent Calendar. Motion carried unanimously. v. PUBLIC HEARINGS/MEETINGS A. SUPER VALU CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS ADDITION by Super Valu Corporation. Request for PUD Concept Review on 135.4 acres. Location: North of Valley View Road, between Highway 212 and 1-494. (Resolution for PUD Concept on 135 acres) Tom Ryan, representing Super Valu, and Myles Lindberg, representing BRW, reviewed the project. Ryan said the project presented tonight is not ideal for them but would work and represents a balance between Super Valu and the neighbors. Enger said the Planning Commission reviewed this project on August 22, September 26, October 24, November 14 and November 28, and recommended approval of the request for PUD concept review based on the plans dated November 23, 1994, and the recommendations of the Staff Report of November 24, 1994. He reviewed the recommendations included in the Staff Report. Lambert said the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission reviewed the project at the December 5, 1994, meeting and recommended approval on a 5-1 vote, per the recommendations of the Staff Report and the further recommendation that the proposed scenic easement be designated at this time. He noted that the Commission expressed concern about the long-term PUD plan with no timetable for completion and the enforcement of the tree replacement ordinance, and serious concern about disturbing the landmark, "Old Baldy". Mark Omlie, 6661 Beach Road, said Super Valu has tried to work with the neighbors on this project; however, he has concern with the effect the two buildings to the north will have on the view from Bryant Lake Regional Park. He asked that those buildings be lowered to three stories unless it can be shown that they do not impact the view from the park. .. CITY COUNCIL MINUTFS 5 December 6, 1994 Kent Molde, 6961 Beach Road, was concerned that the sight lines for the northern elevation were not available tonight as he had requested at the last Planning Commission meeting. He said he had contacted the architect for Hennepin County Parks who said they were not aware of the process going on with this project and that they were very concerned. Damon Fabor, landscape architect representing James Duncan, expressed concern that any effort to save more of "Old Baldy" would make the parking deck more visible to the property owners. James Duncan, 11208 Willow Road, said many of the neighbors are pleased with the compromise plan that has been reached. MOTION: Harris moved, seconded by Pidcock, to close the Public Hearing; Motion carried unanimously. Councilmembers questioned how much of "Old Baldy" is being removed, whether the possibility of a three-story parking lot was explored, and why this is being requested as a concept at this time. Lambert said "Old Baldy" will be lowered about 30 feet; however, tree plantings will compensate for some of the loss in height. Lindberg said the cost of a three-story parking lot would be prohibitive. Ryan said they need to be in a position to have more space for people when it is needed, although they do not have a timetable for construction. Councilmembers expressed concern about approving a project that will sacrifice a major landmark in the community and jeopardize the terrain. MOTION: Harris moved, seconded by Tenpas, to adopt the Resolution approving the PUD Concept Plan; and to direct Staff to prepare a Developer's Agreement incorporating Commission and Staff recommendations, including the recommendation of the Parks Commission regarding dedication of the easement. Motion failed with Tyra-Lukens and Pidcock opposed. Enger noted that the original plan from Super Valu did not cut down "Old Baldy"; however, it did propose an eight-story building which was not acceptable to the neighbors. He said this plan represents a good compromise since it includes over 70 % of the property in a scenic easement and does not request the full 1.4 million square feet of office space that could be built on this property by City ordinance. Councilmembers discussed the merits of continuing the discussion to allow time for sight lines to be prepared and to allow Councilmember Jessen to have input to the decision. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to reconsider the motion. Motion carried unanimously • CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 6 December 6, 1994 MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to continue this project to the December 20th meeting. Motion carried unanimously. B. PIONEER RIDGE 2ND ADDITION by R. H. Development. Request for Rezoning from Rural to RI-13.5 and Preliminary Plat of 12.13 acres into 25 lots, one outlot and road right-of-way. Location: County Road 4 and Pioneer Trail. (Ordinance for Rezoning from Rural to RI-13.5 and Resolution for Preliminary Plat) Jullie said this project has been withdrawn. C. OUTDOOR SALES AND DISPLAY Enger said that, after the Planning Commission recommended no change in the Outdoor Sales and Display Ordinance, the Council directed Staff to draft an amendment to regulate more clearly the outdoor display code. He said the draft amendment divides outdoor display area into two categories--temporary outdoor display area of 2 % of the floor area of the building, and permanent outdoor display area of 6% of the floor area of the building. It also defmes "temporary" as 60 days or less per year and allows a small amount of the outdoor display to be on the existing parking area. There were no comments from the audience. MOTION: Harris moved, seconded by Pidcock, to close the Public Hearing and to approve the 1st Reading of the Ordinance to amend the City Code section relating to Outdoor Storage and Display. Motion carried unanimously. D. VACATION 94-15 -VACATION OF RIGHT-OF-WAY FOR PART OF WEST 70TH STREET (Resolution) (Continued from November 15, 1994) MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to continue this Hearing to the December 20, 1994, meeting. Motion carried unanimously. E. VACATION 94-16 -VACATION OF RIGHT-OF-WAY FOR OLD SHADY OAK ROAD (Resolution) Steven Pavelka, representing his mother who resides at 6324 Shady Oak Road, questioned whether there will be appropriate signage for the road so that his mother's driveway does not continue to be used as a tum around. Dietz said they would be glad to work with the Pavelka's on the details of the signs; however, once the road connection is made there won't be a need for a tum around. Rosow noted that this easement should be amended to except out two temporary easements. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 7 December 6, 1994 MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to close the Public Hearing; and to adopt Resolution No. 94-202 vacating part of Old Shady Oak Road, with the two temporary easements excepted, as noted by the City Attorney. Motion carried unanimously. VI. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Harris, to approve the Payment of Claims as presented. Motion carried on a roll call vote, with Harris, Pidcock, Tyra-Lukens and Tenpas voting "aye. n vu. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS A. RESOLUTION NO. 94-203 ADOPTING THE 1995 TAX LEVY AND 1995 BUDGET In response to the concerns expressed at the budget hearing, Jullie said Staff is recommending that certain items be frozen pending the results of a budget projection scheduled to begin shortly. The total amount of those items is $400,000. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Harris, to adopt Resolution No. 94-203 Certifying the Property Tax Levy and Adopting the 1995 Budget. Motion carried unanimously. B. SHADY OAK RIDGE 4TH ADDITION 2nd Reading of an Ordinance for Zoning District Change; Approval of a Developer's Agreement for Shady Oak Ridge 4th Addition by Joe Ruzic. Location: Rowland Road and Old Shady Oak Road. (Ordinance for Zoning District Change) Enger said the Council requested that 2nd Reading of this item be included as a separate Agenda item in order to review the final conditions of the rezoning. He said the City Attorney has advised that the City may not require that Mr. Ruzic remove the existing metal garage, and the Developer's Agreement does not include an agreement that the building will be removed. Enger said the Council had asked that the records be researched for any previous agreements regarding this property. That research determined there was a previous agreement to remove the building; however, that project was never brought to the City Council for a vote, so there is no binding agreement regarding the building's removal. MOTION: Harris moved, seconded by Pidcock, to approve the 2nd Reading of of Ordinance No. 49-94 for Zoning District Change and to authorize execution of the Developer's Agreement for Shady Oak Ridge 4th Addition. Motion carried unanimously. CITY COUNCIL MINUTFS 8 December 6, 1994 VID. PETITIONS. REOUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS A. PETITION FOR SKATING RINK AT PHEASANT WOODS PARK Lambert said the Parks Commission recommended approval of this skating rink at their December 5th meeting on a 6-0 vote. He said the neighborhood near Pheasant Woods Park petitioned for the rink, it is outside the two-mile radius of any other rink, and the long range plans for this park include a winter skating facility. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to authorize a skating facility to be provided at Pheasant Woods Park. Motion carried unanimously. B. REOUEST FROM SEVER PETERSON TO PURCHASE A PORTION OF CHARLSON PROPERTY Lambert said Mr. Peterson wants to purchase two small parcels of land on the Charlson property that the City is in the process of acquiring. He said the Parks Commission reviewed the request and voted 6-0 to deny the request. One of the major concerns of the Commission was the proximity of this property to the nature conservancy area and what possible future uses might be made of this property. Sever Peterson, Spring Road and Hwy. 169, showed an aerial photograph of the land, noting that the two parcels have been used by his family for years and are essential to his home site as well as continued access to a portion of his property. Councilmembers questioned the total area covered by the two parcels. Peterson said he had originally asked to purchase an additional amount of land as a buffer; however, his current request is for a total of approximately .85 acres. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Harris, to amend the purchase agreement with Mr. Charlson to grant Mr. Peterson's request to purchase the two small parcels of land as presented. Motion carried unanimously. C. REQUEST AND REPORT BY THE EDEN PRAIRIE RETAILERS REGARDING THE EDEN PRAIRIE RETAIL TOBACCO ORDINANCE Dave Edquist, representing Super America, and Terry Johnson, representing Snyder Drugs, presented concerns of the Eden Prairie Retailers regarding the status of the tobacco ordinance, particularly the provision prohibiting the sale of tobacco products by anyone under the age of 18 and the recommendations regarding accessibility. The retailers are requesting that 16 and 17-year olds be allowed to sell tobacco products when an adult is present to supervise and that the recommendations regarding accessibility be phased in over several years in order to accommodate those establishments that will have to remodel in order to comply. The retailers are finding it increasingly difficult to find employees in the City who want to work and are 18 years of age or over. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 9 December 6. 1994 Tenpas said the Tobacco Task Force has not completed their study and recommendations regarding the ordinance. He said they have not yet received the information they asked the City Attorney to research and, in addition, there are a lot of issues remaining to be discussed and researched before they can bring back a recommendation. Dr. A. C. Lundgren, 8500 Montgomery Court, was concerned that the retailers' requests are being driven by revenue needs and he asked the Council to stand fast with the present ordinance. Rob Kesselring, Chemical Health Coordinator for Eden Prairie schools, said tobacco use is a severe problem at the High School and Middle School and surveys show we have a higher than average use of tobacco among 5th, 9th and 12th graders. He said the City's attempts to reduce the availability of tobacco to young people should be applauded because it is landmark legislation. He said it is not appropriate for a 16 year old to sell something that he is not allowed to purchase. Councilmembers expressed concern about the self-service displays with alarm bells serving the same purpose as placing the products behind a service counter, the unresolved questions about fines and fees, and the timing of the Task Force recommendations. Tenpas noted that self-service displays are not recommended as a long-term solution, that the task force had asked the City Attorney to research some questions regarding fmes and fees, and that they had planned to return with their recommendations by February, 1995, but that process might be moved up. The consensus was to request the Task Force to speed up their proceedings. MOTION: Harris moved, seconded by Pidcock, to continue this item to the December 20, 1994, City Council meeting. Motion carried unanimously. IX. REPORTS OF ADVISORY BOARDS. COMMISSIONS & COMMITTEES X. APPOINTMENTS XI. REPORTS OF OFFICERS A. REPORTSOFCOUNC~ERS B. REPORT OF CITY MANAGER C.

He said they are recommending Braun Intertec to develop the system because their proposal was superior to the others submitted, particularly in terms of training and the use of non-proprietary software.

A change of ownership in 1994 made it necessary to do additional background investigation on the new owners. On December 15th, I received the final piece of information from Chi-Chi's needed to complete this investigation. The results indicate no reason to recommend denial of the license. Additionally, Chi-Chi's owns restaurants in other cities within the Metro area. The respective police departments have also conducted background investigations. I recently met with several of these liquor license investigators and they, too, have recommended approval of Chi-Chi's applications.

Community Development Commercial Outdoor Chris Enger Sales, Proposed Ordinance II. 8. Steve Durham Amendment -2nd Reading REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION: • Approve 2nd Reading of amended code for outdoor display area in the Commercial Zoning District with a one year review clause. BACKGROUND: The Council at their June 21, 1994 meeting selected a code amendment draft and directed the item to the Planning Commission for review. The Planning Commission at it October 10, 1994 meeting recommended no change to the City Code regarding outdoor display areas in the commercial district. The Council at their November 8, 1994 meeting expressed concern about the current outdoor display code. The Council indicated the current code lacks specifics which allows for inconsistency in it application. Staff was directed to schedule a public hearing to formalize a code amendment which will more clearly state code requirements associated with outdoor display areas. It was also understood the code would be reviewed one year after enactment. The Council at their December 6, 1994 meeting approved first reading of the Outdoor Display Code Amendment.

Rue I.C. 52-175 Recommended Action: Motion to approve resolution approving construction plans for CSAH 18 and providing enforcement for the prohibition of on-street parking. Overview: The CSAH 18 Preliminary Layout Plan was approved on September 18, 1990 and a revised layout (revising the alignment of Anderson Lakes Parkway) was approved on March 2, 1993. Primary Issues: The construction plans are consistent with the approved layout. However, we do have some concerns that should be addressed with the County. These concerns are as follows: • The end of the noise wall near the south intersection of the West Frontage Road and Linden Drive may need to be extended further south to provide adequate noise mitigation. We would recommend that the County review this issue in more detail. • The CSAH 18 layout approval (Resolution No. 93-34) indicated that the east-bound left- turning movement at Anderson Lakes Parkway should provide a minimum level of service D by providing double left tum lanes and the necessary storage volume. We would recommend that the County provide us documentation that their design will provide an adequate level of service. • Trails on both sides of Pioneer Trail (CSAH 1) east of the West Frontage Road are not included in the plan. We would recommend that the County include that in the construction plan. • Based on the City of Bloomington's plan approval, landscaping plans were modified. We would recommend to the County that the City of Eden Prairie be allowed to make adjustments to the landscaping plan based on a more thorough review. Fmancial Issues: This project is a Federal Aid project, so there is very little local cost participation. We have not received the cooperative construction agreement or an estimate of our costs. However, we do know the City will be responsible for watermain costs along the West Frontage Road. December 20, 1994 Item No. IV.D.1 CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO. (I.

Fox '1)'f\ ' Attached is list 805-NC, a list of non conservation land located in Eden Prairie, which has been pronounced tax-forfeit to the State of Minnesota for non payment of property taxes. As provided in Minnesota State Statute 282, Hennepin County has requested the City to either approve parcels for public auction, approve sale to adjacent property owners, or request conveyance to the City for public use. The list includes five parcels of property described as follows: PARCEL PIN DESCRIPTION PENDING SPECIALS 1. 01-116-22-31-0027 Part of Condominium #508 $15,956.28 Prime Tech Park 2. 06-116-22-21-0027 Wyndham Crest, Lot 15, Block 3 $15,094.04 3. 06-116-22-21-0074 Wyndham Knob Second Addition -0- Outlot B 4. 06-116-22-21-0075 Wyndham Knob Second Addition -0- Outlot C 5. 36-116-22-12-0036 Bluffs East Fourth Addition -0- Outlot E RECOMMENDATION: The staff has reviewed these five parcels and looked at potential usage of any of the parcels for public purposes. The consensus of the staff is that the parcels hr. disposed in the following manner: Offered for Sale at Public Auction: Parcel number two is a platted lot located in the Wyndham Crest Subdivision and has substantial outstanding special assessments on it. Staff feels that given the right climate, this could become a buildable lot and, therefore, recommend it be released to public auction. Offered for Sale to Adjacent Owners at Public Auction: Parcels number one is in the middle of a parking lot adjacent to several commercial buildings in the Prime Tech Subdivision off City West Parkway. The staff has had several conversations with the Tax- forfeit Division of Hennepin County and their staff is currently working on negotiating a way to bring this tax-forfeiture to a speedy conclusion. 1 Parcel number five is an extremely small remnant parcel derived from realignment of Bluff Road during the platting of Bluffs East Fourth Addition. Another outlot just west of this was absorbed into the homeowner's lot to the south of the parcel, and staff would make the same recommendation in this case. Parcels to be Conveyed to the City of Eden Prairie: Parcels number three and four are outlots associated with Wyndham Knob Second Addition. Since they are land locked and the parcels abut areas currently owned by the City of Eden Prairie, it is the staff s recommendation that these be absorbed into the park and open space plan for the City. City staff recommends that the City Council approve the resolution authorizing the disposal of these tax forfeited properties as outlined above.

DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: Community Development Chris Enger SUPER VALU CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS Michael D. Franzen ADDITION Requested Council Action: • PUD Concept Approval for 548,000 sq. ft. of building on 135.4 acres. BACKGROUND Super Valu ftrst appeared at the Planning Commission on August 22, 1994 with a plan for 548,000 sq. ft. of building. This proposal included 165,000 sq. ft. of existing building, an 8 story, 252,000 sq. ft. building near Bryant Lake, and two 48,000 sq. ft. buildings adjacent to 494. Both the Planning Commission and the surrounding residents were not supportive of this proposal. The Planning Commission voted to continue discussion of this item for 30 days and directed the Developer to work with the neighborhood on exploring alternative plans to reduce the visual impact of the development on Bryant Lake, especially the 8 story building and the parking deck. Over the next several months, Super Valu met with the neighborhood on numerous occasions to identify neighborhood issues and to develop alternative plans which responded to them. During that same time period staff talked with various residents in the area about prioritizing their concerns and also worked with Super Valu towards developing alternatives which would meet the directives of the Planning Commission. Super Valu submitted a revised plan for staff review on October 28th. This plan included two 4-story buildings totally 225,000 sq. ft. near Bryant Lake, increased setback from Bryant Lake to structured parking from 130 to 200 feet, and increased square footage of the 48,000 sq. ft. (3-story) buildings along 494 to two 64,000 sq. ft. (4-story) buildings. A Staff Report was drafted which recommended some additional modiftcations to screen the views of the buildings and structured parking areas from Bryant Lake. The plans and Staff Report were submitted to the Planning Commission for the November 14 meeting. At the November 14 meeting, Super Valu unveiled an alternative development plan which had been worked out with the surrounding neighbors for 3-story buildings instead of 4-story buildings. The neighbors indicated their support for the 3-story plan, however the Planning Commission was uncertain if the 3-story plan was better than the 4-story plan. The 3-story plan had not received a staff review, nor had the Planning Commission reviewed a 3-story plan prior to the meeting. The Planning Commission voted to continue the item until the November 28 meeting. The Planning Commission gave conceptual support to a 3-story approach but deferred final action until the Staff Report had been prepared which weighed the pros and cons of both approaches. At the November 28 meeting, a revised 3-story plan was presented to the Planning Commission which combined the better aspects of the 3-story and 4-story alternatives. This plan was supported by the neighborhood. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the project. PRIMARY ISSUES 1. How much development can the site support? The 135 acre site contains approximately 70 acres of wetlands and shoreland area and 65 acres of developable property. The City code would permit at a .3 base area ratio and .5 floor area ratio a range of 850,000 to 1.4 million square feet of building on the developable land. To build this much square footage would require taller and bigger buildings and less of the site's natural features would be preserved. Super Valu's plans for total building development is 548,000 sq. ft. 2. Is the development as proposed consistent with the Shoreland Ordinance? There are two types of shoreland requirements affecting the property. One is the City's current Shoreland Ordinance and the other is the State DNR Shoreland Ordinance adopted in 1989. Until the City adopts a modified Shoreland Ordinance and is approved by the Department of Natural Resources, the current State regulations will also apply. There are two types of shoreland classifications on the property. Bryant Lake is classified as a recreational development water. Super Valu pond is a natural environmental water. In addition to the normal setback requirements from both of these water bodies, the State Shoreland Ordinance has new provisions (which will be incorporated into Eden Prairie's ordinances for bluff impact areas and shore impact area). Strict compliance with the bluff and shoreland impact regulations, as well as setbacks, would severely limit the buildable area on site. It would not allow the development of the property as proposed by Super Valu. Both the City staff and the Department of Natural Resources concur that developing the site as proposed with shoreland variances is reasonable for the following reasons: • Total building density is less than City code. The building density is .20 as compared to the code maximum of .50. • Hills and trees along the lake block views of the buildings and parking. • A new berm will be created along the structured parking area to screen the view. • Conservation easements would be required on Outlot A. This will preserve trees, hills and wetlands, and protect them from further development. • No flIl is proposed in the wetland areas. • Regraded areas along the bluffs would be reforested to natural conditions. y, A.-b 3. How does the development affect significant trees on the property? A detailed tree inventory has been prepared for the property which depicts a total of 16,748 caliper inches. Forty-two percent of the caliper inches will be removed. This compares favorably with other commercial office projects which have averaged 40 % tree loss. The DNR and the City staff agree that much of the tree replacement should be used to create buffers adjacent to Bryant Lake. 4. How much traffic does the Super Valu expansion generate and what impact will this have on adjacent roads? A traffic study for the northeastern part of Eden Prairie included this site and was based upon the Comprehensive Guide Plan. That traffic study indicated a daily trip generation of 6,681 and a peak hour generation of 859 trips. The site as proposed would generate 5560 daily trips and 849 peak hour trips. There are two critical road intersections near the property including the signals at the bridge over 169/212 and the ramp terminus with Valley View Road and 494. Even without the Super Valu headquarters expansion, there is considerable traffic congestion at 'these intersections. The Engineering Department has contemplated improvements to these intersections including additional turn lanes and signals which will ease congestion. As part of the EA W required with this project, a detailed traffic study will be prepared which will specifically identify the type of physical improvements needed. 5. Is an EA W required with this project? An EA W is required by State law. After City Council review and approval of this project, Super Valu will return to the Planning Commission and City Council with a review of an Environmental Assessment Worksheet and Traffic Study. The results of the EA W and traffic study shall be incorporated as a PUD Amendment. 6. How does the plan impact natural features? The main concern of the Planning Commission and the neighborhood was to protect Bryant Lake. To that end, the existing wooded hills on the northeast side of the existing building will be placed in a conservation easement. Super Valu pond and surrounding wetland vegetation will also be protected by conservation easement. "Old Baldy" will be removed to build a parking lot and one of the 3-story buildings. "Old Baldy" has been previously graded by Super Valu, and when Valley View Road was built by the County. A portion of the hill remains along Valley View Road. "Wooded Baldy" remains untouched. The Oak Hills along 494 will be graded. This is where most of the tree loss occurs. A band of oak trees will remain along 494 and on the north side of the project. Staff feels that the low intensity use of the property allows a majority of the site's natural features to remain untouched. Where impacted, tree replacement will be used as mitigation especially along Bryant Lake and to reforest disturbed oak covered slopes along 494. -sr. P-.... -7 STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS The Community Development staff would recommend approval of the PUD based on the following conditions: 1. PUD Concept approval is granted for 548,000 sq. ft. 2. Prior to development on the property, a Comprehensive Plan Change to joint designation of Office -high density residential must be approved. 3. Preparation and approval of an EA W. The findings of the EA W shall be incorporated as a PUD Amendment. 4. Preparation of a detailed traffic study. This study shall be done concurrent with the EA W. The findings shall be incorporated as a PUD Amendment. 5. Rezoning, subdivision, site plan review and guide Plan change approval will require the designation of Outlot A as a permanent scenic conservation area to the City. 6. Submittal and approval of a tree replacement and reforestation plan. 7. Conceptual support is given to the Shoreland variances and PUD waivers, however, final approval cannot occur until the rezoning and subdivision is requested and approved. Supporting Reports: 1.

Plans MEMORANDUM TO: Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission Mayor and City Council THROUGH: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Facilities FROM: Stuart A. Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources DATE: December 1, 1994 SUBJECT: Supplemental Staff Report to the Planning Staff Reports Dated November 10, November 23 and December 6, 1994 Regarding Super Valu Corporate Headquarters Addition RECOMMENDATION: The parks, recreation and natural resources staff recommends approval of this project based on the November 23, 1994 Planning Staff Report and this supplemental memorandum. BACKGROUND: This property is part of the 1978 PUD approval of 80 acres of the total 140 acre site. Currently, Super Valu is seeking preliminary PUD approval on a total of 135.4 acres of land. This plan has been reviewed and revised a number of times balancing the input from surrounding neighbors, City codes, staff input, and input from other agencies. Currently, they are seeking PUD concept approval for 548,000 square feet of building on the 135.4 acres. The Planning Commission recommended approval of this project at its November 28, 1994 meeting. ISSUES: Natural resources/tree preservation: This project has 42 % tree loss which is about "average" for commercial, office projects. The DNR and staff agree that any tree replacement would be used to create visual barriers around the external portion of the project as well as augmenting some interior portions of the project with native type plantings and landscaping. The developer is proposing to save significant trees in several areas of the site, most noticeably on the northerly berm adjacent to Bryant Lake and northwesterly of the existing building. Other wooded areas include "wooded baldy" and the oak hardwood ridge on the westerly side of the project. --y, p.., -9 Other significant features that would be impacted by the proposed two tier parking lot would be that of "old baldy." This unwooded knoll has been a topic of discussion. The real question to be answered is whether this is a significant natural resource or a land form which provides screening for potential building or development to the south side of Valley View Road. This land feature has been graded both by the initial development of Super Valu as well as the upgrading of Valley View Road. The proposed project would place an approximate 30-foot berm on the south border of the project. This would screen the parking area from Valley View Road. The issue of trade-offs when evaluating this project is one that has been discussed by the staff, as well as several neighbors. When you look at the total picture it becomes an issue of which particular natural resource is of greatest value to the overall site. Staff feels that the low intensity development proposed on this site allows for the majority of the site's natural features to remain as they are today. However, where there is impact either tree replacement will be used to mitigate their loss or berms combined with landscaping will provide the desired screening. Wetland Impacts and Storm Water Treatment: The proponent is required to follow all Army Corp of Engineers and Riley Purgatory Creek Watershed District regulations. The exact impact of NURP ponds and other storm water issues would be addressed in the EA W required by State law. The actual results of the Environmental Assessment Worksheet will take place after the preliminary PUD is approved and prior to any actual development of the site. The issue of the shoreland requirements and how they affect this property has been addressed in the Staff Report by the Community Development Department. Additionally, a letter is enclosed in the November 10 report from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources regarding variances in relationship to the shoreland management regulations. Based on their review they believe that many factors that make this site unique. This will also lead to the granting of some variances to enable development of the site while giving detail to the resources that they feel are most critical. Conservation Easement: The staff recommends that Outlot A be designated as a permanent scenic conservation area. By doing this, it would limit any future development or infringement on the natural resource and wooded areas. It would also help to establish up-front the desire to preserve the remaining outside areas of the project including the shoreline and "wooded baldy" and the wooded ridge adjacent to Interstate 494. STAFF RECOl\1MENDATION SUMMARY: In the memo dated December 6, 1994 from the Community Development Department, the recommendations as approved by the Planning' Commission are as follows: Y. {l.. -\0 1. PUD Concept approval be granted for 548,000 square feet. 2. Prior to development on the property, a comprehensive plan change to joint designation of Office-high density residential must be approved. 3. Preparation and approval of an EA W. The finding of the EA W shall be incorporated as a PUD amendment. 4. Preparation of a detailed traffic study. This study shall be done concurrent with the EA W. The findings shall be incorporated as PUD amendment. 5. Rezoning, subdivision, site plan review, and Guide Plan change approval will require the designation of Outlot A as a permanent scenic conservation area to the City. 6. Submittal and approval of a tree replacement and reforestation plan. 7. Conceptual support is given to the Shoreland variances and PUD waivers, however, final approval cannot occur until the rezoning and subdivision is requested and approved.

Minneapolis, MN 55415 612/370-0700 Fax 612/370-1378 Denver Milwaukee Minneapolis Orlando Phoenix Portland San Diego Seattle December 16, 1994 The Honorable Douglas Tenpas, Mayor and City Council Members City of Eden Prairie 8080 Mitchell Road Eden Prairie, MN 55344-4485 RE: Planned Unit Development (PUD) Concept Review for SUPERV ALU, Inc. Dear Mayor Tenpas and Council Members: As requested at the City Council meeting held on December 6, we have prepared sight-line studies (cross sections) illustrating the relationships between existing and proposed development in several areas that were in question at the meeting. The attached aerial photo shows the locations of the four cross- sections which address the following four conditions: SECTION A-A: Illustrates the relationship of the proposed four-story office buildings in the "west campus" area to the landform and existing trees adjacent to 1-494; to the elevation of 1-494; and to the existing homes on the west side of 1-494. SECTION B-B: Illustrates the relationship of the nearest home at the south end of Beach Road to the proposed four-story office and two- level parking at the north end of the "west campus" area. SECTION C-C: Illustrates the relationship of the waterfront and park shelter in the Bryant Lake Regional Park to the nearest (northerly) of the proposed four-story offices in the "west campus" area. SECTION D-D: Illustrates the relationship of the eastern shoreline at the south end of Bryant Lake to the three-story office buildings and two-level parking decks proposed for the "main" area of the project. This section extends through the modified area of "old baldy" to Valley View Road, and illustrates the existing profIle of "old baldy" with a dashed line. Mayor Tenpas/Council Members December 16, 1994 Page 2 Each of the four cross-sections illustrated includes horizontal distances and key elevations to help describe the various distance to height relationships. The sections are drawn with the same scale vertically as horizontally. The following paragraphs describe each cross-section in more detail. SECTION A-A As noted, Section A-A is cut through the western edge of the property, looking toward the north. The top of the hill and the mature oak trees along the western property boundary are higher than the top of the proposed four-story buildings. This relationship will provide a backdrop for views from the east which will help retain the visual character of the western edge, and which will help blend in the buildings since they will not appear silhouetted against bare terrain or the horizon line. As shown, the hilltop and vegetation will also hide the buildings from view from 1-494 and the homes to the west. In the areas to the north and south of the two buildings, where the top elevation of the hill begins to taper off to lower elevations, a similar relationship is maintained with the lower, two-level parking decks. SECTION B-B Section B-B is cut in a north-south direction looking to the west. The most southerly of the homes along Beach Road is illustrated at the right (north) end of the cross-section. There is roughly 1900 feet of relatively flat wetland area to the south of the residential lot, which contains a mixture of tall grasses, shrubs, and cattails. The wooded edge of the upland area of the "west campus" begins at the southern end of the wetland area. A buffer zone of existing vegetation was preserved in this area, extending approximately 175 feet to the south where the site would be cleared for the parking deck and access drives. Because this buffer zone is made up of vegetation which is along the edge of the wetland, it provides a very dense combination of both overstory and understory vegetation, in contrast to many of the interior wooded site areas which exhibit little understory growth. This buffer is estimated to extend to a height of roughly 50 feet, which provides screening to elevation 924.0. The upper level of the proposed parking deck is well below the height of the buffer, Mayor Tenpas/Council Members December 16, 1994 Page 3 and the top of the proposed four-story office building will be roughly 10 feet above the top of the buffer. Because the homes along Beach Road are situated at a lower elevation, the sight lines from the residential area will be such that the existing vegetation will screen the entire height of the building. Since trees are obviously not opaque, the building will not be invisible, but it will clearly not be openly visible from the residential area. In addition, the buildings in the "west campus" area were consciously sited with the long axis in the north-south direction to minimize exposure to the Beach Road area. SECTION C-C Section C-C illustrates the relationship of the Regional Park, new park structure, and north end of Bryant Lake to the proposed four-story offices in the "west campus" area. Visual screening of the proposed development is provided in the same way as for the Beach Road area, by significant existing vegetation. Although many of the trees are softwood species owing to the wet conditions at the lower elevations of the site, and therefore do not appear on the inventory of significant (hardwood) trees, there are two distinct stands of overstory trees between the Lake and the "west campus" area. These two stands occur on a low upland area to the north of the interior lake, and along the upland edge of the west side of the interior lake. An interesting point of comparison is the fact that the park structure, which is 42 feet in height, is set back less than 200 feet from the Ordinary High Water Mark of Bryant Lake; while the proposed four-story buildings, at 60 feet of height, are set back more than 1200 feet from the Ordinary High Water Mark. Much of that distance is covered by significant overstory trees and large softwood trees. Again, the illustration shows that the proposed development will be well screened. SECTION D-D Section D-D illustrates the "typical condition" and visual relationships for the south end of Bryant Lake. Particular attention was paid to preserving existing vegetation along the western shoreline, and to providing benning adjacent to the parking sufficient to totally screen the view of parking from the water, and to screen, to the extent possible, the views from residences at higher elevations Mayor Tenpas/Council Members December 16, 1994 Page 4 on the east side of the Lake. Because the "short" side of the proposed three- story buildings of the "main" site area are oriented towards the lake, the establishment of additional large plantings along the west bank will be effective in limiting the visual impact of the bUildings. Section D-D also shows the proposed alteration of "old baldy" which would reduce its height 30 feet, and its width from approximately 400 feet to 150 feet. At the proposed height with a top elevation at 910.0, the top of the remaining landform will be as high as the tops of the proposed buildings in the "main" site area. Because the high point is near V alley View Road, the remaining landform will effectively screen the interior buildings and parking areas from view from Valley View Road. The lowering may increase visibility of developed areas to the south of Valley View road from the opposite shore of Bryant Lake, but this was considered to be a reasonable trade-off with the Bryant Lake Homeowners Association in exchange for the lowering of the buildings in the "main campus" area. These effects will be further reduced with the commitment to plant both "old baldy" and the berm to the east of the proposed two-level parking structures with large evergreens. Y our Staff has asked that we provide a summary of Site Data which illustrates our attempts to preserve the natural resources which collectively provide the unique setting and character of this property. As noted in the various Staff reports, and in our written and verbal descriptions of the proposed project, we firmly believe that the proposed PUD Concept for SUPERV ALU's future use of the property achieves a reasonable balance between preservation of natural features and development of the property. The compromises which have been made, are the direct result of extensive dialogue with City of Eden Prairie and DNR Staff, with City Commissions, and with concerned neighbors. The summary which follows on the next page, should lend perspective to the success of that process. • Mayor Tenpas/Council Members December 16, 1994 Page 5 SUMMARY SITE DATA Gross Site Area: 135.4 Acres 100% Protected Waters (Floodplain): 48.6 Acres 36% Protected Wetlands: 21.8 Acres 16% Upland (Buildable) Site Area: 65.0 Acres 48% • Existing Development: 13.5 Acres 10% • Proposed Development: 40.4 Acres 30% (21 % of Buildable) (62% of Buildable) • Overall Floor Area Ratio: .09 (9% of Gross Site Area) Proposed Protected Open Space: 95.0 Acres 70% Proposed Fill in Floodplain: None Proposed Fill in Wetlands: None Proposed Storm water Treatment: "NURP" Ponds for all impervious surfaces Proposed Impervious Surface: 19.1 Acres 22% of area above OHW Maximum Impervious Allowed: 21.7 Acres 25% of area above OHW Significant Tree Loss: 38-42% Proposed Tree Replacement: Per the Ordinance Requirements Proposed Landform Alteration: Five of Six Preserved Reduce height of "Old Baldy" 30 feet (50%) Mayor Tenpas/Council Members December 16, 1994 Page 6 The summary, and in particular the low percentages of the total site area which are to be disturbed or used for development purposes, support the position that the proposed PUD Concept Plan successfully blends a reasonable amount of future development with the preservation of natural resources.

" Our neighborhood is united in its opinion that any part of Old Baldy is an improper location for a building or a parking ramp. What are the present roles of the 60 ft. hill that looms so majestically at the end of Bryant Lake? 1. The silhouette of Old Baldy provides a desirable height variation to the usual suburban flat lands; a visual enjoyment for the residents and visitors of the lake to say the least of motorists on Valley View Road. 2. Old Baldy absorbs some of the highway noises. 3. At intervals Old Baldy screens the highway traffic as well as the lights and buildings of the business center. 4. Old Baldy shelters us from some of the pollution caused by the traffic. 5. Among Eden Prairie's many lakes, Old Baldy is a unique landform, a gift from Mother Nature. 6. Our living room windows are placed to enjoy the shoreline, Old Baldy, the wooded slopes and many other forms and colors of nature. Old Baldy is the heart and soul of the views through the windows of our custom-built homes. 7. The power and graciousness of Old Baldy will help to visually detract people's attention away from the visual clutter of buildings and parking ramps proposed by Super Valu. Is all of this commercialism adjoining our residential and recreational properties in harmony with Nature and the good health of the people? Super Valu's requests still overwhelm us homeowners. We are astounded by the commercial density. Why is Super Valu so anxious to build beyond the original approved 35,000 square foot addition? What are some of tlie rewards if the Eden Prairie council does not back Super Valu's plan? 1. It will prove that the views, opinions and concerns of long standing resident families are highly valued. 2. Your decision will help maintain the home property values. 3. It will provide an environmental precedent to uphold when pressures arise form other developers and other corporations. 4. Your decision will reveal your desire to protect the functions and beauties of Mother Nature's gift, in the environment. As elected leaders of Eden Prairie, we trust you will preserve Old Baldy and always protect our community from inappropriate use of the land and overdevelopment not only for today, but for the visual enjoyment and health of people of Eden Prairie's many tomorrows .... Decisions based on the welfare and quality of life of the people will not haunt you, but rather provide you with glows of satisfaction for using good judgment. And our guess is that deep down in the hearts of the Super Valu representatives, your rejection of this plan will provide some truth to the printed statement on their grocery bag, "Super Value .... helps save the environment.. ..

DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: Community Development Chris Enger WOSEN ADDITION Michael D. Franzen Requested Council Action: The Staff recommends that the Council take the following action: • 1st Reading of an Ordinance for Zoning District Change from Rural to Rl-13.S on 2.43 acres; • Resolution for Preliminary Plat on 7.73 acres into 4 lots and 1 outlot. Approval of this project would result in four single family lots with access off a private road between the daycare center and Super America to City West Parkway extension. Approval would also result in an outlot for future development. The Planning Commission reviewed this project at the November 28, 1994 meeting and recommended approval based upon the following conditions: 1. Rezoning for four lots to be zoned RI-22. 2. Access to Outlot A would be by public road through the Pavelka property in the future. 3. The development of Outlot A shall be at a density base of three units, with additional units possible provided that tree loss is no greater than 12 % and that conservancy easements are provided in a proportionate amount to what is recommended on the first phase of the project.

FEE OWNER: LOCATION: REQUEST: Planning Commission Michael D. Franzen, Senior Planner November 23, 1994 LOOSEN ADDITION Michael Loosen North and West of the Intersection of City West Parkway and Old Shady Oak Road 1. Rezoning from Rural to RI-22 on 2.23 acres. 2. Preliminary Plat of 7.73 acres into 4 lots and 1 outlot. 1 Y.<2... -3 ~oo~w At:>Dmo~ Stafr Report Loosen Addition November 23, 1994 BACKGROUND This site is guided Low Density Residential for up to 2.5 units per acre. The site is currently zoned Rural. The existing Loosen household is on proposed Lot 1. Access to the existing Loosen household is by private driveway to the Chase Point private road between the daycare center and SuperAmerica. The site is characterized by steep slopes, wetland, and heavy tree cover, mostly oak. The key questions regarding the development of this parcel are: 1. What is the appropriate way to provide access to the property? 2. What type of density can the site support? ROAD ACCESS Attachment A is a city map which shows existing roads within the area. The undeveloped property in this area is owned by Michael Loosen and the Pavelka's. Michael Loosen obtained a building permit from the City last year to build one house (variance for a lot size in the Rural Zoning District less than 10 acres) off the private road. Attachment B shows surrounding existing topography, tree cover, and wetlands. To provide a public road access through Chase Point on alignment #1, is not possible because the existing slopes are 30 % . To access the property along alignment #2 would require between 8 to 20 feet of filion the Pavelka property and require cuts of 20 to 40 feet off the top of the hill on the Loosen property. Alignment #3 is a public road to the lower portion of the Loosen property which can be accomplished with minimal site grading and at street grades less than 8 %. HOW MUCH DENSITY CAN THE SITE SUPPORT? Private roads have been considered only in environmentally sensitive areas such as woods, creeks, lakes, wetland, flood plain areas and steep slopes, if the use of the private road would substantially reduce the impact of construction. It is not to be used as a tool to further intrude into a sensitive area that might otherwise be preserved. Private drives have been approved in Eden Prairie for the following reasons: 1. Tree loss is less than 15 %. 2 -sr.c.... -S- Staff Report Loosen Addition November 23, 1994 2. A minimum lot size of 44,000 square feet. 3. The houses must be visible from a public street with address clearly marked on street right-of-way for emergency vehicle access. 4. Where a common access is shared, there should be a turn-around for emergency vehicles. 5. The use of a private road would result in a benefit to the City such as preservation of open space through dedication or easement. 6. Positive drainage to the nearest outlet which does not impact other lots and homes . . 7. Development should not interfere with orderly extension of utilities. Homes must be within 300 feet of the nearest fire hydrant. The plan as proposed is a two-phase development plan. Lots in Phase I vary between 22,000 to 40,000 sq. ft. There are no plans for Outlot A at this time. Staff believes that three lots are possible off a public road. These lots would be large due to steep slopes, trees and wetlands. While all of the lots are less than 44,000 sq. ft. (l acre lots) guideline, the site could develop at an equivalent density of approximately 1 unit per acre (3 lots off public road, 4 off private drive). A one-unit per acre density is appropriate on a site with steep slopes, trees, and wetlands. GRADING AND TREE WSS Approximately 10 feet of cut off the top of the hill is necessary to accommodate the building pads on proposed lots 2, 3 and 4. Building pads are approximately 4,000 sq. ft. which should be large enough to accommodate the size of home expected to be built. The grading plan shows expansion for deck or three-season porch. Tree loss is calculated at 12 %. There is a total of 1,970 caliper inches of trees. A total of 257 inches would be lost due to construction. Tree replacement is calculated at 41 caliper inches. To protect the steep slopes and the trees outside of the construction limits, a conservation easement is recommended as shown on Attachment C. The conservancy easement covers not only the rear portions of Lots 1, 2, 3, and 4, but also the steep slopes, trees, and wetlands in Outlot A. 3 Staff Report Loosen Addition November 23, 1994 UTILITIES Utility access cannot be provided through the Chase Point project. The owner must obtain a permanent easement across the Pavelka property to tie in to existing City services within City West Parkway. The size of the proposed easement is 25 feet wide. The required easement width is 30 feet. The City code requires that storm water be pretreated to NURP standards. Due to slopes and small amount of hard surface area, the City is recommending a cash contribution to the storm water utility fund. This fund pays for maintenance of existing ponds or purchase of property for other ponds elsewhere in the community. The contribution amount is determined by the size of NURP pond and the value of the equivalent land area needed to build the pond. EMERGENCY VEHICLE ACCESS The Fire Marshal has reviewed this project and is recommending either that all buildings be sprinkled, or to provide a turn-around on proposed Lot 4 for emergency vehicle access. An additional fire hydrant is needed along the private drive on proposed Lot 1. CONCLUSION The provision of a public road access up the hill to the Loosen property would result in considerable damage to trees and slopes. The use of the private drive access for three additional lots on the hill, can be considered acceptable based on the following reasons: 1. Conservancy easements shown on Attachment C preserve steep slopes, trees, and wetlands,features which are an important part of the site character. 2. The private access, at a 12 % slope, is the maximum slope allowed for private driveways. 3. An overall site density of approximately 1 unit per acre or 7 total units would be permitted on the property. Development of outlot A would be limited to no more than 3 additional units off a public road through the Pavelka property. 4. Development of the property with the private road as proposed would be consistent with the City's policy on private roads and densities in sensitive areas. 4 -V-.L. -7 Staff Report Loosen Addition November 23, 1994 STAFF RECOMMENDATION The Community Development Staff presents the Planning Commission with the following alternative courses of action: I. If the Planning Commission believes that the development as proposed with restrictions on future development as stipulated in the Staff Report, represents a reasonable use of the property, then one option would be to recommend approval of the rezoning and preliminary plat based on the following conditions: 1. Prior to City Council review, the proponent shall: A. Provide a tree replacement plan for 41 caliper inches. B. Revise the development plan to depict a 30 foot utility easement across the Pavelka property. C. Revise the development plan to depict a turn-around on proposed Lot 4 or agree to sprinkle all buildings. D. Revise the plat to show Conservancy Easements as depicted on Attachment C. 2. Prior to final plat approval, proponent shall: A. Submit detailed storm water runoff, utility and erosion control plans for review by the City Engineer. B. Provide detailed storm water runoff, utility and erosion control plans for review by the Watershed District. 3. Prior to building permit issuance, the proponent shall: A. Pay the appropriate cash park fee. 4. Prior to any grading on the property, the proponent shall stake the proposed construction limits with a snow fence and notify the City and Watershed District 48 hours in advance of grading. 5· V.c.. -8 - Staff Report Loosen Addition November 23, 1994 5. The private road must be paved to City standards. A cross-access and maintenance agreement must be submitted for review and approval by the City Engineer prior to the release of the final plat. 6. The easement for construction of utility extension to the property must be obtained by the proponent and recorded at Hennepin County prior to the release of the final plat. II. If the Planning Commission believes that additional development of the property is possible with the private drive, but the number of units proposed is high and results in significant environmental impacts, then one option would be to recommend a revised development plan with fewer lots off the private drive. III. If the Planning Commission believes that further development of the property should be by public road only, then one option would be to recommend denial of the proposal. Further development of the property is limited to a public road access from the Pavelka property with up to three lots possible on the western portion of the proposed Loosen site.

WOSEN ADDITION by Michael and Patricia Loosen. Request for Zoning District Change from Rural to RI-13.5 on 2.43 acres, Preliminary Plat of 7.73 acres into 4 lots and 1 outlot. Location: City West Parkway and Old Shady Oak Road. Franzen stated there are 2 primary questions to ask about the property. The first one has to do with the access. The second question is the type of density that the site can support. Franzen introduced Michael Loosen, the owner of the property who would give a brief presentation, after which he will go over the Staff recommendations. Michael Loosen. owner, stated that he is concerned about the access, and the conservency easement across the western boundary: He agreed to the turnaround, but did not want Conservancy Easements or density restrictions on Outlot A. He felt these should be determined when he's ready to develop Outlot A. Using sketches of the plan, he reviewed his project with the Planning Commission. Franzen stated that Attachment B on the Staff Report shows 3 potential locations for the public road access and an alternative. Number 1 would be coming up a very steep grade, so they ruled that out. Alignment #2 would be coming through the developer's property, but that would require considerable fIll on the Pavelka property, so that was ruled out as an option. The only real option for access to the top of the property would be by the existing private drive which comes down across Mr. Loosen's existing lot and comes out between the daycare center and Super America. There's an access drive shared in the back of that location. Outlot A on Attachment B is an area that Mr. Loosen is reserving for development in the future. On alignment #3 the grades are level between the 2 sites and it's likely that a public road would be built into that location. Staff's recommendation regarding the access would be for the 4 lots on the top of the hill to be a private drive with a 12 % grade and cross access, and maintenance agreement. This has been done on other projects in sensitive areas where they don't have very high density. The second question for this property is how much density can this site support. Staff suggested that a density of about 1 unit per acre would be appropriate considering that part of the access is a private drive. Staff's recommendation refers to limiting the density to no more than 3 additional 4 vc.. -)3 units off the public road. The reason for that is the Staff does not have a specific development plan. They are looking at topography, slopes and trees without having specific plans cannot say if additional density is possible on Outlot A. Staff reviewed with the Planning Commission the alternative courses of action as listed in the Staff Report on page 5. Clinton asked if 12 % is the highest grade in the City. Franzen replied that 12 % is the maximum grade that the City would allow for a private drive-way access. Foote expressed concern that it seemed to be a lot more than 12 %, that it looked a lot steeper than that. Clinton asked who would handle snow removal for the homeowners. Loosen replied that he refers to the drive-way association and they would get together and hire one contractor to remove all the snow. Kardell asked Loosen if he maintains the private road all the way out to the City West Parkway. Loosen replied that he maintains only to the bottom of his hill. Kardell asked who maintains the rest of it. Loosen replied that it's shared by the other properties in the development. Wissner asked why when Loosen built his house last year and went through the variance of the fact of building on less than 10 acres, didn't he do the whole thing at the same time. Loosen replied that he didn't have a lot of insight regarding it. Bauer stated that this is the type of project that he struggles with. He was out there today and could not visualize how to access the property or if it could be developed. Loosen replied that he felt the same way until he built a house there and how easy it was to develop it. Before he put a road up there, he really couldn't see it. Wissner asked if there was any problem coming through the Pavelka property sewer. Loosen replied that it's all worked out. 5 vc..-1'1 Steven Pavelka, stated that his mother owns the property at 324 Shady Oak Road adjacent to the south of Mr. Loosen's property. He expressed concern about the same kind of situation happening as on Cherokee Trail with Galarneau. He felt commercial should be permitted on the east portion of the Pavelka property. Sandstad asked how the property is guided. Franzen replied that the property is guided all low density residential for the Pavelka property west of Old Shady Oak Road. East of the Old Shady Oak Road is also Low Density Residential and owned by Pavelka. Commercial would be appropriate east of Old Shady Oak Road. Wissner stated that she is very uneasy with this because when she went out there she was very confused, and had a hard time visualizing this. What she read and what she saw were different. She is uncomfortable but wants to be reassured that it's okay. She expressed concern about people wanting to put sprinklers throughout their house in single family homes. Franzen replied that because of the value of the homes and the size of the homes, this has been done in the past. Sandstad stated that there is a new plastic type pipe system used in homes. He said it"s usually used in larger homes versus smaller homes. Wissner asked if the Planning Commission is just approving the change. Franzen replied that they are approving the preliminary plat of four lots and one outlot. Sandstad stated that the plan looks good as proposed. He would like to see a little clarification on the conservancy easement. He would to include in the plat the conservancy easement at least on lots 1 through 4 and leave outlot A for the future. Sandstad stated that he would be more comfortable with the numbered lots having that conservancy easement shown on the plans at this point. He suggested that the possible boundaries of this conservancy easement be linear with some visual marker to remind the residents that there is something beyond that point. Foote stated that he was under the impression that if the turn-around was put in, they don"t have to have the sprinklers. Franzen replied that you can do either or both. Foote said the project looks fine to him, and he agrees with Bauer and Wissner that 6 vc.-,S- the project is different. Kardell stated that she is having difficulty visualizing this plan. She feels strongly about the conservancy easement. She said Sandstad" s approach would be just fine as long as it becomes very clear that the intent is that what ultimately happens in outlot A is to be carried over on that property as well. In terms of the density overall, she would be comfortable with what works out to be possibly 1 unit per acre. But again, that was one of the issues Franzen raised and it would be appropriate for the Planning Commission to say that they agree with limiting it to that. She wants it clear that the intent is nothing more than that. Franzen stated that Mr. Loosen sees this as a restriction on future development and he doesn't want to be held with that. This might prevent him from doing anything additional in the future. Sandstad suggested a guideline, not a flexible rule. Kardell asked how valuable this would be. Sandstad replied that it would be part of the record for these proceedings, and if Council agrees the petitioner will require to comply. Franzen suggested restructuring a condition to a density base of 3 units for Outlot A with additional units possible provided no greater than the 12 % tree loss as proposed and a comparable amount of conservancy easement on a per lot basis as the first phase. Kardell supports this but wants to make sure the Planning Commission addresses the easement and the density issues in their recommendation. Clinton expressed concern for all the projects that have private drives. There are two near him and he doesn't see them as being very practical in the way you have to get up to the home at night. MOTION 1: Bauer moved, seconded by Clinton, to close the public hearing. Motion carried 7-0-0. MOTION 2: Bauer moved, seconded by Clinton, to recommend to the City Council approval of the request of Michael and Patricia Loosen for Zoning district Change from Rural to Rl-13.5 on 2.43 acres based on plans dated November 23, 1994 subject to the following amendments: 7 vc. -Ib 1. The Western 25 % of the numbered lots should be included within a conservancy easement and the expectation is that a future similar feature of outlot A would be encumbered by a conservancy easement. 2. Recommend that the conservancy easement be physically delineated with posts on the side lot lines where the easement crosses just to delineate it from the public. 3. The density of approximately 3 additional units on Outlot A provided a 12 % tree loss a comparable size conservancy easements to protect trees, slopes, and wetlands. Motion carried 7-0-0. MOTION 3: Bauer moved, seconded by Clinton, to move to recommend to the City Council approval of the request of Michael and Patricia Loosen for Preliminary Plat of 7.73 acres based on plans dated November 15, 1994, and subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report dated November 23, 1994 as amended. Motion carried 7-0-0. vc... -'7 , MEMORANDUM TO: Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission Mayor and City Council THROUGH: bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Facilities FROM: Stuart A. Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources DATE: December 1, 1994 SUBJECT: Supplemental Staff Report to the November 23, 1994 Community Development Staff Report for Loosen Addition RECOMMENDATION: The park, recreation and natural resources staff recommends approval of this project based on the November 23, 1994 Community Development Staff Report and this supplemental memorandum. BACKGROUND: This property is currently owned by Mike Loosen and is 7.3 acres in size. The plan involves division of the easterly portion of the property into four lots and the balance of the property being designated as Outlot A. ISSUES: Tree Preservation: This project has a loss of trees calculated at 12 %. This is much lower than the "average" tree loss on single family developments. The main reason that the tree loss is only 12 % is because of the proposed private driveway that reduces the number of trees that need to be cleared. The total replacement for this site is calculated at 41 caliper inches of trees. Grading: The grading plan indicates approximately 10 feet of each of the highest points of the hill would be removed to accommodate the building pad for the proposed lots two, three, and four. By properly placing these building pads at their proposed locations, it should minimize the impact on the remainder of the westerly facing slopes. In addition, the incorporation of the conservation line is indicated on Attachment C of the November 23 staff report. This delineates an area outside approximately 40 feet of each of the proposed building pads that would be designated as a scenic and conservation easement line, thereby, protecting the remaining slopes and trees. Wetland Impacts 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. Due to the slopes and the small amount of hard surface area within this subdivision, the staff has made a recommendation that the proponent pay a cash contribution to the storm water utility fund. STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS: The Planning Commission approved this addition as per the staff report of November 23, 1994 as detailed in alternative number I. SAF:mdd Loosen/Stuart MOTION: Hilgeman moved to deny the request of approval on this concept plan due to unacceptable tree loss concerns, about changes in environmental rules between concept approval, and development rules which would be an impact on history land form. Koenig seconded the motion and it failed 1-5-0. MOTION: Lynch moved to approve the request by Super Valu with the caveot that the Commission is concerned about the length of time that the development might take given changes in the environmental resolution; and that the Commission is also concerned at the request of another look at the impact of "Old Baldy" of the significance in topography to increase heritage; that the Commission also request that the tree ordinance policy be strictly enforced on this site; and this is contingent upon a scenic easement upon approval of the PUD; and all the recommendations to be approved subject to the dedication of Outlot A conservancy area of the site. Brown seconded the motion and it passed 5-1-0. (Bob's Motion: Lynch moved to approve the request by Super Valu subject to all the Parks Commission and Planning Staff Reports noting that the Commission is concerned about the length of time of the PUD, and is concerned about the loss of "Old Baldy", and to strictly enforce tree ordiance subject to scenic easements being over the entire outlot being dedicated at the time of platting, and recommending that Super Valu consider dedicating scenic easement over the outlot at this time.) Kube-Harderwijk stated that she considers "Old Baldy" one of the least significant features of this whole thing. She is much more concerned with the wooded hills along 494. B. Loosen Addition Staff referred the Commission to the memo dated December 1, 1994 from Stuart A. Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources. Fox stated that this property is owned by Mike Loosen and is 7.3 acres in size. The plan involves division of the easterly portion of the property into 4 lots and the balance of the property being designated as Outlot A. One of the lots he would live on where his current home is, and the balance of the property would be designated as an outlot because it has no access currently. One of the new things about this proposal is that it would be a private driveway. It would not be a public street. There would be water and sewer put into this project. The grading of the drive-way would be approximately 12 % which would be steeper than a public street. Because this is a rather unique situation" the recommendation has been made to leave it as a private access. The exception to this would be a turn-around at the top to support emergency vehicles having adequate space to turn around. The tree loss is only 10% because Mr. Loosen is only taking a limited number of trees off the site. 10 Michael Loosen, owner, reviewed his project with the Commission. He stated that he has owned this property for 16 years and his house is on the northerly portion of the property. They lost their house and are presently building a house on Lot #1 on the property. He said it is his intent to remove as few trees as possible, and would like to see the tree loss at less than 12 %. Brown asked if Loosen was the developer. Loosen replied that he was not the developer. Brown asked if Loosen was going to sell it to other developers. Loosen replied he would sell it individually. MOTION: Hilgeman moved to approve the Loosen Addition as per the Staff Report. Koenig seconded the motion and it passed 6-0-0. VI. OLD BUSINESS None. VII. NEW BUSINESS A. Recommendation on Park Dedication Fees for 1995 The Commission was referred to the memo dated November 29, 1994, from Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Facilities. Lambert stated that this item is a general item every year. The recommendation is to increase the park dedication fees. These fees are generally connected to land values. As land values go up each year, the City tries to keep these fees going up with them. In discussing land values with the City Accessor, he said raw land value in Eden Prairie went up a minimum of 5 % last year. The City Accessor said that it's difficult to give a specific percentage because it depends on the location in the City. City Staff recommended a 5 % increase on both residential and commercial office industrial fees. The fees for residents would go from $900.00 up to $945.00. The per acre fee for commercial office and industrial would go from $3,250.00 to $3,410.00. Brown asked if that was a reasonable increase. Lambert replied that state law allows the City to go to 10 % of the value. This is probably only 2 % of the value for industrial and 1 % for office, and is a very conservative recommmendation. MOTION: Kube-Harderwijk moved to increase the park fees as per recommendation of the memo dated November 29, 1994.

Dawson Minnesota Coalition of Responsible Retailers to Vrn.A amend the City's Ordinance regarding sale of tobacco-related products Requested Action: It is recommended that the Council: 1) Refer suggested changes to the Tobacco Ordinance Task Force; and 2) Appoint a Councilmember to replace out-going Mayor Tenpas on the Task Force. Backlround: At the December 6, 1994 meeting, retailers made a presentation of proposed amendments to the Ordinance regarding sale of tobacco-related products which the Council approved in June 1994. Their primary issues were 1) a requirement that their employees be at least 18 years of age to be allowed to sell these products, and 2) the prohibition of self-service merchandisers/displays. The City Council continued this matter until the December 20 meeting in order to gain further insight into the issues raised by the retailers. Addressing the Major Issues: 1) Age of Clerks --The City has the prerogative to regulate the age of persons selling tobacco- related products. In reco~nition of the circumstances of the retailers and the minors who may be workin~ for them. it is su~~ested that existinr employees oj licensees who are under the a~e 0(18 years when the Ordinance may be amended be allowed to sell tobacco-related products. This "grandfathering" approach would allow current employees who are minors to retain their jobs and give employers additional time to adjust to changes in their labor pool. Licensees would supply the City lists of their under-18 employees and their dates of birth. 2) Location of Products --The City Ordinance does not require that tobacco products be placed behind counters. It requires the "intervention" of an employee to release the products to customers. Thus, a remotely-activated dispenser is currently allowed under the Ordinance. No chan~es to the Ordinance are su~~ested. (continued on page 2) December 20, 1994 Agenda Item VU. A Tobacco Ordinance Page Two 3) Administrative Fines --It has been suggested that a schedule of fines be implemented against licensees who violate tobacco laws. As a statutory city, Eden Prairie does not have authority to use administratively-imposed fines as sanctions for violations of civil law . (Some charter cities have the authority to set up these administrative fines pursuant to authorization in their charters. Minnetonka is an example of one which has done so recently by amending its charter.) For Eden Prairie, such authority would need to be granted by an act of the Legislature. It is suggested that the City seek legislative cwproval for statutoO' cities to establish administrative fines for violations of civil law. This approval should give authority over the broad area of civil law , but could be limited to enforcement of regulations related to the use or sale tobacco products. DATE: CITY COUNCIL AGENDA December 20, 1994 SECTION: Reports of Advisory Commissions DEPARTMENT: ITEM DESCRIPTION: ITEM NO. Administration--Presentation by Municipal Legislative C. Jullie, C. Dawson Commission (MLC) of Housing Report IX. A Requested Action: No action is necessary. Backeroond: Earlier this year, the Board of the Municipal Legislative Commission authorized preparation of a study to examine housing patterns and a number of other issues which were perceived to be contributing to a social and economic decline of the central cities and inner-ring suburbs of the Twin Cities metropolitan area. Board members believed that the legislative and public debate about housing and proposed legislation was being framed with misleading information and without a balance of perspectives. As the MLC's Housing Report concludes, " ... to successfully develop public policy initiatives we must ensure that the problems surrounding affordable housing have been properly captured and that the underlying data supporting the initiatives are bias-free." The Board accepted the report at its Fall meeting after noting changes to be made to the text. It then approved the staff recommendation to present the report to the City Council of each of the 13 member cities before or during the early part of the upcoming session of the Legislature. Bob Renner of the MLC staff and Cindy Thomas, consultant on the study, will present the findings of the report to the City Council. They will highlight the nine points of the study which are included in the Executive Summary. They will also want to hear Councilmembers' perspectives on the report and comments on how to introduce the report to the public policy debate. Supporting Documents: Executive Summary --including presentation graphics and recent newspaper articles Housing Report (complete copy) EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Affordable housing is intertwined with other public policy issues. Often, these related issues drive the needs for subsidized housing. This report presents an overview of the public policy issues surrounding affordable housing, including issues such as land economics, employment, public transportation and housing costs. Some of the major findings of this report are summarized in the following nine points. First, the affordable housing debate in Minnesota has been primarily focused on zoning practices by select cities, and the conclusions in these studies have been reached without using scientific methodology. These studies have assumed that local zoning practices have limited the supply of land for housing and, thereby, excluded affordable housing options in suburban cities. These studies have not used established techniques such as regression analysis to reach their conclusions. The Urban Land Institute has shown that the cost of land has a dramatic impact on housing costs. In 1980, for example, the developed lot accounted for 20 to 30 percent of the cost of a typical Federal Housing Administration (FHA) financed single-family home in the United States, compared to 15 percent in 1960. A 1993 study prepared for the Metropolitan Council found that land prices may range from 25 to 50 percent of total development costs for a home in areas within the Twin Cities. Government can increase the price of land by restricting the supply. Local governments, however, have little or no influence over rates of household formation or regional population shifts. These two forces increase the price of land by escalating demand. Professional articles in national journals on land economics present a more detailed view of land costs than the Minnesota studies. These articles indicate that local zoning practices, which restrict the supply of land, can artificially inflate the price of land only if there are monopolistic practices among the local zoning authorities. In a 1989 journal article, Professor Louis Rose presented the findings of his regression analysis on land costs. His regression analysis was designed to identify and measure the monopolistic practices among zoning authorities. Rose examined the land costs and zoning practices of the 45 largest metropolitan areas in the United States, including the Minneapolis urban area. Rose's study found that with the exception of Houston, with no zoning, the Minneapolis urban area had the lowest concentration of zoning power among the 45 largest metropolitan areas in the country. Rose stated that there was essentially no concentration -2- of zoning power in the Minneapolis urban area. Therefore, zoning practices of suburban cities within the Minneapolis urban area were not causing an increase in land costs. Beyond zoning, increases in land costs can be caused by natural factors such as lakes and wetlands. Additionally, the Urban Land Institute has indicated that land prices are generally highest and increase most rapidly in areas where the demand for new housing is greatest. Second, the public policy debate in Minnesota has generally taken a simplistic view of lower-income households. This debate has grouped various income levels together. However, professional articles on affordable housing indicate that the scope of social and financial support needs may vary by household income. The social support needs for a family with a household income at 0 to 30 percent of the Twin Cities median income are likely to be different from the needs of a family with a household income from 50 to 80 percent of the median. Differences between these families can include educational attainment, language skills, automobile ownership, job training needs and the ability to purchase a home. Third, when given the opportunity, suburban cities within the Seven County Area have actively established multi-family housing containing affordable rental units for low-and moderate-income households: • Since 1989, nine MLC communities reported spending $33,212,357 in locally generated financial resources to expand affordable housing within their cities. • When unconstrained by allocation formulas, suburban cities created subsidized housing in record numbers between 1980 and 1987. During this period roughly 6,000 rental units for low-and moderate-income households were created using tax exempt bonds in the Seven County Area--three-quarters of these units were located in the suburbs. The financial advantages for using these bonds were eliminated in 1986. The public policy discussion on siting affordable housing fails to take into account the way in which public dollars are allocated among the cities in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area. -3- Fourth, the discussion of affordable housing and access to job opportunities has not made a distinction between the types of manufacturing jobs being created and lost. Specifically, public policy must recognize that manufacturing jobs are not necessarily identical, and that they may require different educational skills. Manufacturing jobs are increasing in the suburban communities of the Twin Cities, such as Fridley and Eagan. This growth has negated the manufacturing jobs lost in Bloomington, Minneapolis, Roseville and St. Paul. Between 1987 and 1992, Roseville and Bloomington jointly lost more manufacturing jobs than the combined loss of manufacturing jobs in Minneapolis and St. Paul. Manufacturing jobs created in the developing communities are coming, for example, from the electronic, electric equipment, and printing and publishing sectors. The manufacturing jobs that have been lost in Minneapolis and St. Paul have been largely in the industrial machinery and equipment sector. This report found the following distribution of jobs within the Seven County Area: • In 1992, 32 percent of the manufacturing jobs (78,234) in the Seven County Area were located in Minneapolis and St. Paul. The 13 MLC cities had 28 percent of the manufacturing jobs in the Seven County Area during 1992. Forty percent of the manufacturing jobs were located in the remaining cities within the Seven County Area. Between 1987 and 1992, net manufacturing jobs increased by 3 percent in the MLC member cities. During this same period, manufacturing jobs increased by half a percent in the Seven County Area. Manufacturing jobs across Minnesota increased by 5 percent. Ninety-three percent of Minnesota's net manufacturing job growth occurred outside of the Seven County Area between 1987 and 1992. • In 1992, 42 percent of the service jobs (147,501) in the Seven County Area were located in Minneapolis and St. Paul. The 13 MLC cities had 27 percent of the service jobs in the Seven County Area. Thirty-two percent of the service jobs were located in the remaining cities within the Seven County Area. Forty-three percent of the net service jobs created in the Seven County Area between 1987 and 1992 were in MLC cities. The remaining cities in the Seven County Area created 57 percent of the area's service jobs during this period. Forty-one percent of Minnesota's net service job growth occurred outside of the Seven County Area between 1987 and 1992. -4- • In 1992, 36 percent of all jobs (461,900) in the Seven County Area were located in Minneapolis and St. Paul. Twenty-seven percent of all Seven County Area jobs were located in MLC cities. Thirty-seven percent of all jobs were located in the remaining cities within the Seven County Area. Fifty-three percent of the net jobs created in Minnesota between 1987 and 1992 were created outside the Seven County Area. Fifth, very little public policy consideration has been given to the structural and financial commitment necessary to greatly expand public transit throughout the Seven County Metropolitan Area. The Metropolitan Council has established a general policy that public transportation should be within six blocks of households needing the service, and that workers should not have to ride public transportation for more than 30 minutes to reach their job site. The Regional Transit Board has established an aggressive proposal for expanded public transit in the suburbs, but the proposal cannot be implemented without a large infusion of public dollars. Sixth, the discussion on affordable housing has inaccurately suggested that most homes in the suburbs are beyond the reach of many households. Nine of the 13 MLC cities were able to provide detailed information on the assessed value of homesteaded properties in their communities: • Forty-eight percent of all homesteaded properties are assessed at $110,000 or less and could qualify for the FHA first-time home buyer program. • A family of four at 80 percent of the median income in the Twin Cities could qualify for a home valued at $105,000 under the first-time home buyer program. Almost 48 percent of all homesteads in these cities would be within their reach. • A family of two at 80 percent of the median income in the Twin Cities can qualify for a home valued at $80,500 under the first-time home buyer program. The nine communities have 23,934 homesteaded properties assessed at $80,000 or less. Twenty percent of all homesteaded properties in these cities are within their reach. • A family of three at 50 percent of the median income in the Twin Cities could qualify for a home valued at $60,000 under the first-time home buyer program. The nine communities have 7,777 homesteaded properties assessed at $60,000 or less. More than 6 percent of all homesteaded properties are within their reach. In addition, 1,470 single-family non-homesteaded properties would be within their reach. -5- Seventh, there is evidence in the land economic literature to suggest that the Metropolitan Urban Service Area line, established by the Metropolitan Council, may be increasing the cost of land in the Twin Cities and causing urban sprawl as families seek less costly land beyond the Seven County Area. As a result, this policy may be increasing the cost of establishing affordable housing in the developing cities. Eighth, the cost of housing and the cost of its maintenance are linked to the age of the housing units--newer homes cost more to purchase and older homes cost more to maintain. Roughly half of the housing stock in Minneapolis and St. Paul was built before 1940. In contrast, at least a third of the housing units in 9 of the 13 MLC cities were built between 1980 and 1990. In 4 of the MLC cities, half of the housing stock has been built since 1980. The struggle to rehabilitate aging housing stock is beginning to reach the older suburbs as much of their housing stock surpasses 30 years. Increasingly, additional investment in these suburbs will be needed to keep these homes habitable. Finally, this study found several examples of questionable data being used in the public policy debate on affordable housing. • 1980 and 1990 census data on employment, developed initially by the Metropolitan Council, is recorded according to where employees live rather than where they work. Another employment database, developed for the Metropolitan Council, is unreliable before 1987. Prior to this time period, numerous corporations (especially in Minneapolis and St. Paul) reported the geographic location of all corporate employment at their corporate headquarters--even if some or most of the employment occurred in other cities. • The debate on affordable housing in Minnesota has been applying statistics from the free and reduced school lunch programs as a measure of an increase in financial need among families within a school district. The Minnesota Department of Education presents statistics for the free and reduced school lunch program in two formats: participation in the programs versus eligibility for the programs. Recently, there has been a national effort to encourage children eligible for the free or reduced lunch programs to participate. Therefore, changes over time in the participation rate in the free or reduced school lunch program may reflect the school district's success in persuading eligible children to participate in the programs. For example, just over 67 percent of the students in the Brooklyn Center school district participated in the school lunch program during the 1993-94 school year. Forty-two percent of these participating students received the lunch at a free or -6- reduced price. However, 36 percent of all students enrolled in the Brooklyn Center school district were eligible for the free or reduced lunch program. By comparison, almost 47 percent of the students in the Eden Prairie school district participated in the school lunch program during the 1993-94 school year. Just over 9 percent of these participating students received the lunch at a free or reduced price. However, 15 percent of all students enrolled in the Eden Prairie school district were eligible for the free or reduced lunch program. At an October 5, 1994 meeting on affordable housing, a colored map entitled "Percent of Elementary Students on Free and Reduced Lunches (1993-94)" was distributed. The map presented the participation rate of children in the free and reduced lunch program. The problem with this statistic can be highlighted in the following example. This map showed that less than 8 percent of the children participated in the free and reduced lunch programs in Eden Prairie. However, the Eden Prairie school district has 15 percent of its children eligible for the free and reduced lunch programs. In addition, the eligibility rate increased from 4 percent of the school district's students to 15 percent over a five-year period, an increase of 447 percent. • In its "Community Profiles," the Metropolitan Council has excluded owner-occupied manufactured housing and multi-family housing in its count of housing units available for purchase. This arbitrary policy excluded at least a quarter (13,494 units) of the housing units assessed at $110,000 or less in nine MLC cities. As highlighted in these nine points, to successfully develop public policy initiatives we must ensure that the problems surrounding affordable housing have been properly captured and that the underlying data supporting the initiatives are bias-free.

As impressive as the current flow is, the pipes could handle even more sewage. And that's what worries some politicians and planners.

It began as a successful neIV ap- proach to an old problem. Born about 25 years ago, Metro Waste Disposal is one 01 the na- tion's early ellorts by communi- ties to pool resources to solve common prohlems. A sewage commission sanc- tioned by the Legislature phased out city·run plants pOlluting rivers and streams for a nine-plant dis- posal and treatment system con- nected by 600 miles of pipes. The regional approach was economical and ellicient. The system burned sludge lor power, recycled ash as ferlllizer, and released a watery discharge c1ealler than rivers /lowing by its plants. Today it serves 105 communi- ties, which are charged a uniform rate, and it is one of the nation's largest sewage systems behind such behemoths as Detroit's, which processes a billion gallons 01 waste a day. William Morrish, who directs the Urban Design Center at the University 01 Minnesota, notes that regional collaboration is a natural evolution lor cities that can no longer afford to act as self-contained islands. "We live and work in much larger, complicated systems loday with many different centers," Morrish said. "Employment, jobs, housing arc dispersed in a large metro area. It becomes critical lor cross-jurisdictional plannmg." But whether the metro area's diverse communities can resolve their current differences over sew- er expansion remains to be seen. Il also illustrates the Byzantine nature 01 regional planning that could stall el/orts in other areas such as policing and housing_ At issue arc pressures by devel- opers to build on land (ar rrom the Twin Cities -where property is cheap, taxes low and sewer hOok- ups nonexistent. The Metropolitan Council, though it has a written policy to limit such development, has not turned down a request in at least two years. It has plenty of room to add new users to the regional sew- age system, and has agreed to build large-mouth sewer hookups, known as Interceptors, without charging developers a dime. Installations are covered by sewer lees and have benefited such suburbs as Woodbury, Chan- hassen and Rosemount, where hundredS o( acres were developed.

The Committee was formed by the Council in April, 1994 to explore how to link social services with future housing initiatives. Although the program is not expected to officially begin until spring of 1995, the City will be contracting with Family to Family ties, a family support services agency, in January to begin coordinating the family mentoring component of the program. The proposed program has four key components: Housing (scattered basis with vouchers). Education and Training for Employment (through professional case management). Family Support and Mentoring Services (volunteer families from EP -coordinated by professional agency). Employment Search (effort to employ families in Eden Prairie). What makes this approach different than any other? Section 8 Vouchers provided to very low-income families already residing at Sec. 8 "projects" in Eden Prairie. Currently not allowed by HUD and will require special waivers. Required participation in five-year Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program (administered by Metro HRA). Currently administered nationally on a voluntary basis only. Families must perform on the FSS Contract or will lose their Voucher. This will help attract families serious about improving their lives. Program requires participants involvement with support family from Eden Prairie. Who are the major players? Metro HRA (provides Vouchers and administers FSS). Hennepin County Technical College Richfield (administer STRIDE and ITPAJcase management). Family to Family Ties (coordinate family support component). City of Eden Prairie HRA (HRA staff and Committee will oversee and monitor entire program). Hennepin Technical College EP (provide auto repair services at low/no cost) PROP will be involved at some capacity in addressing emergencies that arise with participating families. ffem xA CN:. 10 Flying Cloud Airport Business Association (blArilQ) Att-Jp.

Public Works "ij) Franlo Road Assessments Eugene A. Dietz;ff Requested Action: Consider modification of a portion of the special assessments against Franlo Road homesteaded properties in favor of a connection fee that would be due at building permit time for a redeveloped use. If approved, the 1995 Fee Resolution would be modified to include a special connection fee for each of the four properties shown in the attachment. Background: At the 1994 Special Assessment Hearing, a representative of the property owners along Franlo Road, south of Prairie Center Drive (south of Lunds) requested consideration for helping them with the burden of the special assessments on their "transitional" properties. Four of the properties along Franlo Road are homesteaded and have significant special assessments attached to them. It is anticipated that those properties on the east side of Franlo Road may be redeveloped as multi-family and potentially those properties on the west side of Franlo Road may redevelop as commercial or multi-family. After meetings between City officials and property owners, the attached proposal would convert excess assessments along with all sewer and water assessments to a connection fee ranging from approximately $10,500 to $16,600. This connection fee would be payable at time of redevelopment along with building permit fees. In addition, the trunk sewer and water assessment for these homesteaded properties would be deleted and assessed at the prevailing acreage rate at time of redevelopment. The result is that the majority of the deferred special assessments would be converted to a connection fee that would not unduly influence the ability of the properties in transition to negotiate a sales price for redevelopment. The connection fee amount would be fixed and therefore no additional interest would accrue to the principal amount. Therefore, in addition to having a $7,400 connection fee for single family homes that had not been assessed utility connection charges in the past, there would be four new connection fees each specific to a property identification number and address along Franlo Road. This modification of special assessment policy should be viewed as having application to only special circumstances. The parcels in question received larger than normal assessments due only because of their transitional nature. The expected redevelopment of the property to a higher use is applicable only in the major center area and this solution should be utilized in only similar situations: homesteaded parcels, assessments that anticipated a more intense redevelopment use, and requiring assembly of several parcels to make redeveiopment viable. The specific dilemma Item No. X. £./. I that is trying to be solved is the length of time for redevelopment balanced with an equitable cost for improvement, while still allowing property owners enough time for their land value to reach a point that it will exceed the value of the property as a residential homesite. Financial Issues: The cost to the City of Eden Prairie would be the amount of interest that would have been collected against the principal amount of the special assessment. However, it is noted that the City Council had previously agreed to waive interest charges for deferred special assessments already. Converting these amounts to connection fees will place the financial burden for the cost of the improvements on the redevelopment of the property --where arguably it belongs. Item No. X. £.1.
