PRESENTATION OF 1989 MRPA CITATION AWARD
Director of Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Bob Lambert
introduced John VonDeLinde, Chairman of the Awards Committee for the
Minnesota Recreation & Parks Association.
VonDeLinde gave a brief history of the organization and stated that
the main goal of the association was to promote the quality and
availability of leisure services to the State's residents. The MRPA
Citation Award is awarded to recognize public, non-profit, and private
agencies which have completed projects which best exemplify sound,
innovative, well carried out projects on a local level that comply
with the philosophies of parks and recreational services.
VonDeLinde stated that Eden Prairie was the recipient of the 1989 MRPA
Citation Award for its project at Round Lake Park. VonDeLinde added
that the committee believed that the Round Lake Park project was a
superbly carried out project and deserved recognition on a State
level.
VonDeLinde presented the award to Mayor Peterson and Director of
Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Bob Lambert.
Anderson believed that Round Lake Park was the best illustration of a
cooperative effort between the City and School District over a long
period of time. Anderson added that he was very proud that the City

IV. PUBLIC HEARINGS
/MO
City Council Minutes 4 September 19, 1989
A. NELSON ADDITION by David Nelson. Request for Zoning
District Change from R1-22 to R1-13.5 and Preliminary Plat
on 2.41 acres into 6 single family lots. Location: 9950
Bennett Place. (Ordinance No. 35-89 - Zoning; Resolution
No. 89-202 - Preliminary Plat)
Jullie reported that notice of the Public Hearing had been
mailed to 80 surrounding property owners and published int
he September 6, 1989 issue of the Eden Prairie News.
Peter Knaeble, representing the proponent, presented the
plans for a 6-lot development on 2.41 acres. He added
that the plan would require a Zoning District Change from
R1-22 to R1-13.5. Knaeble noted that no variances were
necessary and that the plan would meet the City's Guide
Plan.
Enger reported that the Planning Commission had reviewed
this item at its August 28, 1989 meeting and recommended
approval with a unanimous vote subject to the
recommendations outlined in the August 25, 1989 Staff
Report.
Lambert reported that the Parks, Recreation & Natural
Resources Commission reviewed this item at its September
18, 1989 meeting and recommended approval of the proposal
with a 4-0-0 vote.
Anderson asked Enger how the lots were zoned surrounding
this property. Enger replied that there were both R1-13.5
and R1-22 zoning surrounding this property. He added that
recently platted lots were zoned R1-13.5; however, there
was property to the east which was still zoned R1-22 at
this time. Anderson then requested that the lots
presently zoned R1-22 be pointed out on the map. Enger
noted the lots zoned R1-22 on the plan. Anderson asked if
the lots to the north were zoned R1-22. Enger replied
that the lots to the north were zoned R1-13.5. Anderson
was concerned that R1-22 lots would abut R1-13.5 and
believed that this should be avoided.
Peterson asked if the realignment of the road as
referenced in the Staff Memorandum was depicted on the
plan presented tonight. Knaeble replied that the
east/west road had been moved 10 feet to the north to keep
the headlights from affecting the home across the road at
the access point.
Pat Finnegan, 9925 Bennett Place, stated that he lived in
the home directly across from the Burnett Addition.
Finnegan stated that the proposed road alignment would
have the access point for the Burnett Addition directly
across from his driveway and was concerned about the
problem of headlights shining directly into his living
/M I
City Council Minutes 5 September 19, 1989
area. He added that at the Planning Commission meeting
the recommendation had been to move the road 20 feet to
the north and now the recommendation had been changed to
10 feet. Finnegan believed that there would still be a
problem from the headlights where the road was moved 10 or
20 feet; however, believed that it would be somewhat less
with the 20 feet.
Finnegan stated that a greater concern was for the safety
of the children in the neighborhood due to the present
traffic from Bennett Place and the increase in traffic
that these developments would cause. He added that the
traffic on Bennett Place was continuously in excess of the
posted speed limit of 30 MPH. Finnegan stated that last
year he had requested that the City post signs which
indicated "Children at Play" and the City had replied that
these signs were reserved for areas near playgrounds and
schools. The City did, however, post the speed limit at
30 MPH at that time. Finnegan had spoken with Senior
Planner Mike Franzen and was told that the sight distance
would be 290 feet at the proposed intersection and the
requirement for a road posted at 30 MPH was 260 feet.
Finnegan added that if the speed limit were 35 MPH, which
he believed the traffic net or exceeded, the sight
distance required would be 350 feet. Finnegan urged the
Council to consider the safety factors and move the road
60 feet to the north and to install a 3-way stop sign at
this location.
Randy Stone, 9947 Bennett Place, concurred with the
comments made by Mr. Finnegan. Stone added that the
police had conducted a survey on the traffic in the area
this week and that survey concluded that approximately 80%
of the traffic was at 30 MPH or less. Stone believed that
the survey was skewed in the favor of this proposal.
Stone stated that the construction trucks using this road
needed to build up speed to be able to get up the hill and
believed that these trucks were in excess of 30 MPH
continuously. Stone was concerned for the safety of the
children. He believed that a stop sign would slow the
traffic down. Stone recommended that the road be moved
further to the north to provide a greater distance for
visibility.
Tom Gambucci, developer of Burnett Addition, stated that
he also had been concerned about sight distances and had
proposed a cul-de-sac for the development to reduce the
traffic. Gambucci added that the traffic pattern would
not be changed by moving the road 60 or 200 feet to the
north; the only reason for moving the road was to mitigate
the problem with the headlights for Mr. Finnegan. The
road alignment at this time was based on Staff
recommendations. Gambucci believed that a cul-de-sac
City Council Minutes 6 September 19, 1989
would divert the traffic, estimated at approximately 550
trips per day, in other directions.
Enger reported that a speed survey was conducted today
between 6:50 AM and 8:50 AM. He added that 67 cars were
clocked with an average speed of 27 MPH, 80% of the
traffic was going north and 20% going south, one car was
clocked at 39 MPH, and all the speeding cars were going
north, up the hill. Enger noted that these results were
based on only one day and that additional study could be
recommended.
Enger noted the memorandum from Rod Rue, traffic engineer,
which addressed the request for a 3-way stop sign. He
added that the criteria for a stop sign would require a
volume of traffic on the major street to average 500
vehicles per hour for an 8-hour period and the minor
street 200 vehicles per hour for an 8-hour period. Enger
reported that Staff estimated the total from these
developments to be a total of 500 trips over a 24-hour
period. Enger added that an inadequate sight distance
could be considered a justification for a stop sign;
however, the road was posted at 30 MPH and the sight
distances for this speed were considered adequate.
Peterson pointed out to the residents that the City
Council did not make the determination as to where a stop
sign was required. He added that stop signs do not
regulate the speed of traffic; the best means to
accomplish speed regulation was through the Police
Department. Peterson stated that the Council was
concerned about the safety of all residents.
Tenpas asked if the speed survey was conducted with a
marked or an unmarked car. Captain Clark replied that a
marked car was used to conduct the survey. Tenpas then
asked if this could have resulted in slower speeds. Clark
replied that this could have affected that speeds,
depending on the location and visibility of the marked
car.
Tenpas asked if there was another house located to the
north of the two residents who had addressed the Council.
Knaeble replied that there was one large lot to the north.
Tenpas then asked why the road was not moved 20 feet to
the north as recommended by Staff rather than the 10 feet
as presently proposed. Enger replied that after further
discussion with the developer it was determined that 10
feet would be adequate, but Staff believed that 20 feet
would be better. Knaeble added that if the road were
moved 20 feet to the north significant trees would be lost
and by moving the road only 10 feet to the north the
headlight problem would be mitigated and the trees would
be saved. Gambucci added that with the road being moved A
City Council Minutes 7 September 19, 1989
10 feet to the north the headlights would be directed at
the garage of the Finnegan home and not at the living
area.
Tenpas asked Enger to comment on the decision for a
through road versus a cul-de-sac and the affect on traffic
levels. Enger replied that Staff reviewed this area as a
whole and considered all three developments. He added
that Staff determined that a total of 50 lots would use
the through road at 10 trips per day per lot for a total
of 500 trips per day.
Tenpas asked if the speed could be reduced to 25 MPH.
Dietz replied that a speed limit of 30 MPH was required by
State regulations.
Pidcock asked if Staff had conducted a study of the road
elevations to determine the affect of the headlights on
the Finnegan home. Enger replied that Staff had looked at
the road location in relationship to the Finnegan
property. Pidcock then asked if a berm had been
considered on the Finnegan property to mitigate the
problem. Finnegan replied that Gambucci had mentioned
something at one time, but did not follow through.
Finnegan expressed a concern that the developer could
promise anything, but this did not mean that it would
necessarily happen.
Peterson stated that Council could require that certain
mitigation measures be carried out by the developer.
Finnegan recommended that the road be moved as far north
as possible. Peterson asked Finnegan if the road could
not be moved further to the north would there be other
acceptable measures to mitigate the headlights. Finnegan
replied that if the road could not be moved further to the
north he would appreciate whatever could be done to
mitigate the headlight problem.
Anderson asked Enger if Staff believed that the sidewalk
as proposed would meet the needs of the neighborhood.
Enger replied yes.
Knaeble stated that the grade of the road as proposed
would be higher than the Finnegan property and would
naturally direct the light from the headlights down. He
added that the developer had proposed to plant evergreens
to mitigate the headlight problem.
Pidcock believed that the road should be moved a few more
feet to the north and berm constructed to mitigate the
headlight situation.
Peterson asked Enger if it would be helpful to move the
road an additional 10 feet to the north and if a berm and
jcq
City Council Minutes 8 September 19, 1989
plantings could obscure the headlights. Enger replied
that based on plans the headlights would be directed at
the southern end of the Finnegan garage; if the road were
moved 10 feet to the north the headlights would be
directed more to the northern end of the garage. Enger
added that the real concern was for the sweep of the
lights of turning traffic. Enger believed that a berm and
shrubs would help to mitigate the problem somewhat.
Gambucci stated that the headlight issue was not a legal
issue on which a project could be denied. He added that
he had tried to please Mr. Finnegan and address the
problem. Gambucci said that he had already redesigned the
road to the north and believed that it was unfair to make
further demands. Gambucci also stated that Mr. Finnegan
purchased his home knowing that there would be additional
development in this area at some time. Gambucci believed
that the proposal as presented was being fair to everyone.
Gambucci emphasized that safety had been the most
important issue.
Peterson stated that it was the Council's desire to make
the proposed development compatible with existing
development and requested that the developer work with
Staff to accomplish this goal.
Peterson asked Finnegan if the Council decided that the
road alignment would remain as proposed, would he work
with the developer and City Staff to investigate the
possibility of using a berm, fence, plantings, or a
combination of the three; or would he not allow the
developer to come onto his property. Finnegan replied
that he was concerned that a berm would obscure the view
when backing onto Sennett Road and would create more of a
safety hazard. Finnegan noted that the Cardarelle
property was at a higher elevation than his property and
would not be affected by the lights if the road were moved
further north.
Pidcock asked if moving the road 60 feet to the north if
the sight distance would be better. Enger replied yes,
the sight distance would increase to 350 feet. Enger
added that the proposal as presented provided adequate
sight distance.
Harris asked what the negative impact would be to the
overall project if the road were moved 10 feet versus 60
feet to the north. Knaeble replied that the project would
be reduced by one lot and additional tree loss would
occur. Enger clarified that if the road were to be moved
further to the north the proponent would choose to move
the road 125 feet to the northern property line which
would allow them to retain the present number of lots, but
would result in additional tree loss.
9 S-
City Council Minutes 9 September 19, 1989
Peterson asked if this redesign would result in additional
driveways on Bennett Road. Knaeble replied no.
Enger noted that the Planning Commission had recommended
to move the road to the north 20 feet.
Tenpas asked Finnegan what rooms would be exposed to the
headlights. Finnegan replied that the living room and two
bedrooms would be affected. Tenpas recommended that the
road be moved an additional 5 feet to the north and that
Staff be directed to assure that enough plantings were
placed on the Finnegan property to mitigate the headlight
problem.
Peterson asked Enger if Councilmember Tenpas's suggestion
could work to mitigate the situation. Enger replied yes.
There were no further comments from the audience.

Prairie News.
Mary McCawley, representing the proponent, presented the

lots were proposed and variances would be required.
McCawley stated that the proponent was requesting a Zoning
District Change from R1-22 to R1-13.5.

this item at its August 28, 1989 meeting and recommended
City Council Minutes 10 September 19, 1989

area south of Pioneer Trail designated for hunting.
Jullie replied there were housing subdivisions in the
area. Anderson then asked approximately how many houses
were located in the Cedar Forest subdivision. Jullie
estimated 100 houses. Anderson asked how many houses were
City Council Minutes 11 September 19, 1989
located in the Purgatory Creek area by Dell Road. Jullie
replied approximately 100 homes. Anderson was concerned
about these densely populated areas being open for
hunting.
Peterson understood the Ordinance to read that shotgun
shells could not be discharged within 1000 feet of any
dwelling or roadway. Pauly stated that was correct and
added that the distance was 1500 feet for slugs. The area
further to the north required a 40-acre parcel.
Anderson stated that several years ago the residents in
the Cedar Forest area had voiced strong objection to
hunting. He added that there were small children which
were used to playing in the wooded area. Anderson said
that Bloomington, Eagan, Plymouth, and Maple Grove all had
open land, yet did not allow hunting. He added that
Chaska only allowed bird shot. Anderson was concerned
about allowing hunting in the middle of a residential
area.
Peterson stated that shotgun slugs would not be allowed
north of Highway 169.
Severin Peterson, 15900 Flying Cloud Drive, stated that
some hunting was allowed in Bloomington, but believed that
the question was whether hunting would be safe in Eden
Prairie. Peterson believed that there were areas which
would allow for safe hunting and that the landowners
should have the right to hunt in these locations.
Peterson believed that this was becoming an emotional
issue and should remain addressed as a safety issue.
Dave Brown, 9801 Spring Road, believed that he owned the
most vulnerable home on the bluff and added that he was
not concerned about safety on his property. Brown noted
that the deer herds were at carrying capacity and
something needed to be done to control the numbers.
Peterson asked Brown if he was in favor of the ordinance
as proposed. Brown replied that he would have no problem
with allowing slugs north of Highway 169. Brown added
that there were other areas where problems could occur,
which Councilmember Anderson had addressed.
Harris believed that Eden Prairie was heading toward a
total ban on hunting; however, this would not take place
as long as hunting was acceptable in the river bottom
area. Harris stated that she had walked through several
of the areas proposed for hunting and was more comfortable
with the ordinance. Harris added that she was concerned
about human safety in Eden Prairie and asked for comments
from the Police Department as to whether the ordinance
could be enforced. Chief Wall replied that he was
comfortable with the boundaries for this year; however it
City Council Minutes 12 September 19, 1989
did bear watching. Wall added that the areas would be
considered reasonably safe and that enforcement was
limited no matter where the boundaries were located. Wall
stated that for the Police Department this was an issue of
discharge of firearms and not a hunting issue or a
wildlife management issue. Wall said that the Police
Department was not charged with the responsibility to be
out every day of the hunting season to see that the
hunters stayed within the boundaries and observed the
distances. Wall stated that he would like another chance
to review this ordinance next year. Wall added that one
point that the Police Department strongly supported was
that slugs only be allowed south of Highway 169.
Anderson asked how much time and money was spent
processing hunting permits. Captain Clark stated that the
permit processing was time-consuming. He noted that for
approximately 2 weeks each year the issuing of permits was
the only task accomplished by the receptionist. Clark
added that he personally fielded calls regarding questions
related to hunting, which took up a significant amount of
time. Clark stated that it had been recommended that the
response to calls should be that unless the hunter had
hunted in Eden Prairie or knew a landowner in Eden
Prairie, a permit would not be allowed.
Harris asked Clark how many permits were issued each year.
Clark replied that 71 permits had been issued at this time
for 1989. Wall added that 40 of these permits were issued
to non-residents. Harris then asked how long was the
hunting season. Wall replied approximately October
through December.
Anderson asked if all of the hunters had permission from
the landowners to hunt or where they merely getting a
permit. Clark replied that this was not known for sure.
Clark added that a significant improvement had been made
to have on file signed permission from the landowners;
however, this was time consuming and would require further
cooperation from the landowners. Anderson believed that
it was important for the residents paying taxes on the
property to known who had permission to hunt on the land
and that the permission be done in writing.
Pidcock asked how many people could hunt on a given piece
of property at one time. Pauly replied that the ordinance
did not set a limit or restriction. Jullie noted that
there was a restriction of 15 hunters per parcel south of
Highway 169 using slugs. Jullie added that birdshot would
not have any restrictions.
Harris asked how many parcels north of Highway 169
consisted of 40 acres or more. Clark replied 3 parcels.
/19 9
City Council Minutes 13 September 19, 1989
Darril Peterson, 18700 Flying Cloud Drive, stated that
there was a problem with the wildlife north of Highway
169. He added that the new housing developments were not
near the areas proposed for hunting.
Pidcock asked Darril Peterson if he was comfortable with
the ordinance. Peterson replied yes and added that he
would like to be able to hunt on his property in areas
where it would be safe.
A non-resident, who had hunted in Eden Prairie for over 5
years, asked how many violations had been reported against
hunters with permits. Clark replied that no accidents had
occurred. Clark added that there had been violations by
permit holders in the past; however, he did not have a
number. The majority of complaints related to noise and
tracking issues. Clark noted that there were fewer
violations by permit holders than by those without
permits.
Clark wanted to clarify one item which had been addressed
earlier. Clark stated that hunting was not allowed in
Bloomington as noted by Councilmember Anderson; however,
Mr. Peterson was also correct in that special permits were
issued by Bloomington to allow limited hunting for
wildlife management in the river bottom area.
Brett Hope, 14700 Flying Cloud Drive, stated that he
managed the Charlson property, which was located outside
the MUSA Line and would not be developed for some time.
Hope believed that hunting should be allowed in this area.
Mayor Peterson stated that he was prepared to support the
Ordinance as presented for 2nd Reading.
MOTION:
Pidcock moved, seconded by Tenpas to approve 2nd Reading
and adoption of Ordinance No. 27-89 as revised. Motion
carried unanimously.
B. Resolution No. 89-205. recommending the appointment of
Glenn G.C. Olson to the Metropolitan Transit Commission
MOTION:
Harris moved, seconded by Pidcock to adopt Resolution No.
89-205 supporting the reappointment of Glenn G. C. Olson
to the Metropolitan Transit Commission.
Pidcock stated that she would like the opportunity to
review the information on a candidate before it was
presented to the Council. Pidcock recommended that the
/BO
City Council Minutes 14 September 19, 1989
background information be given at least one week prior to
a decision.
Peterson concurred that if the background information were
in the FYI packet it would give sufficient time to ask
questions before a formal recommendation was presented.
Motion carried unanimously.

Operations
MOTION:
Pidcock moved, seconded by Harris to approve 1st Reading
of Ordinance No. 34-89. Motion carried unanimously.

A. BURNETT ADDITION by Transtar. Request for Preliminary
Plat of 4.57 acres into 9 single family lots. Location:
9940 Bennett Place. (Resolution No. 89-204 - Preliminary
Plat)
Jullie reported that notice of this public meeting had
been mailed to owners of 80 surrounding properties and
published in the September 6, 1989 issue of the Eden
Prairie News. Jullie noted that a significant amount of
discussion had taken place regarding this issue under Item
IV.A and directed the proponent to present any new
information relevant to the request.
Tom Gambucci, proponent, stated that a road easement was
on tUTom Gambucci, proponent, stated that a road easement
on the Finnegan property and a berm could not be
constructed on that easement. Peterson requested that
Gambucci meet with Staff and Mr. Finnegan to work out a
reasonable mitigation.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION:
Harris moved, seconded by Pidcock to adopt Resolution No.
89-204 for Preliminary Plat approval and to direct Staff
to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating
Commission and Staff recommendations and Council
conditions that the realignment of the road and an
agreement for appropriate screening on the Finnegan
property be reached prior to 2nd Reading. Motion carried
unanimously.
City Council Minutes 15 September 19, 1989
B. Reauest from George Bentley on behalf of John Taman
The letter presented in the Council packet was of a
informational nature and did not require action on the
part of the City Council.
C. Reauest for Gamblina Permit by Acrogymnastics Sports
Education Association.
Jullie reported that a Class A License had been requested
by the Acrogymnastics Sports Education Association (ASEA),
which would allow for bingo and pulltabs at the American
Legion Club.
Peterson asked Jullie if the ASEA was aware that
charitable gambling in Eden Prairie was to be discussed at
the October 24, 1989 City Council meeting. Jullie replied
yes.
Harris asked for a brief history on the organization. Ron
Winkler, secretary for the ASEA, stated that the
organization promoted trampoline and gymnastics for youth,
known as the Minnesota Twisters. Winkler added that the
organization wished to be able to encourage more young
people to participate in the sport if an interest existed
and not be deprived due to financial hardship. He stated
that some of the current members had qualified for
national competition. The organization would like to
sponsor more education for participants and judges for the
competition. Currently the organization is run by
volunteers. Winkler believed that the bingo and pulltabs
would be a reasonable way to raise funds to continue the
work which has been started.
Harris asked how often the ASEA would propose a Bingo
Night. Winkler replied that the proposed lease with the
American Legion was set up on a weekly basis and would run
1 to 2 nights per week. Harris then asked when the
pulltabs would be sold. Winkler replied only on the
evenings when the bingo was scheduled.
Tenpas asked how many members were in the ASEA. Winkler
replied approximately 200 members with approximately 60 to
80% coming from Eden Prairie. Tenpas then asked how many
hardships cases existed presently. Winkler replied that
he did not have this figure, it would be available from
the ASEA. Tenpas asked how the funds were obtained
currently. Winkler replied solely from fees paid for by
the parents of children which participated.
Peterson asked if it was the Booster Club which was
applying for the license of the ASEA itself. Winkler
replied that the Booster Club had made the application.
Peterson asked if a Booster Club would qualify for a
City Council Minutes 16 September 19, 1989
license under the regulations. Winkler replied that they
had been informed that they met all requirements. Pauly
asked Winkler if it were a non-profit organization which
had been in existence for at least 3 years. Winkler
replied yes.
Pidcock asked how many other countries were involved in
this sport. Winkler replied approximately 41 countries.
Tenpas stated that he was apprehensive that one group
would be allowed to monopolize approximately 1/5 of the
time slots available.
Peterson believed that the request was premature due to
the fact that a date was set to deal with the Charitable
Gambling issue in October 1989. Peterson noted that the
Council had voted no earlier in the year for another youth
athletic organization and believed that all the facts
needed to be reviewed by the Council as prepared by the
special committee appointed by the Council before any
further consideration should take place.
Winkler stated that the Booster Club had been told that
the nights were available at the American Legion Club,
where bingo operations are already approved.
Tenpas believed that it was important for all groups to be
reviewed with the same guidelines and also that the number
of groups allowed not be limited.
Winkler stated that the number of nights allowed was
offered by the American Legion Club.
MOTION:
Harris moved, seconded by Anderson to continue this item
to the Special City Council meeting scheduled for October
24, 1989. Motion carried unanimously.

A. Reports of Council Members
1. public Relations for City Awards
Pidcock believed that the City should capitalize on the
issuance of awards when presented to the City. An effort
should be made in increase the public relations and
publicity to cover an event when an award was received.
Peterson concurred and added that at the very least the
news media should be made aware in advance that such an
event would take place.
Tenpas suggested that the issuance of the award be
included in the Chamber of Commerce brochure.
2. Appointment to Chemical Health Advisory Board
Peterson reported that Rod Kesselring had asked that
either himself or another Council member be appointed
along with Lyndell Frye to serve on the Chemical Health
Advisory Board.
Tenpas asked what the function of the board was. Peterson
replied that the CHAB wcrked with the community and the
school system related to chemical use and abuse.
Peterson asked if any other Council member would be
interested serving.
MOTION:
Pidcock moved, seconded by Tenpas to appoint Mayor
Peterson and Lyndell Frye to serve on the Chemical Health
Advisory Board. Motion carried unanimously.

XI. NEW BUSINESS
Jan Bertrand, 19011 Priory Lane, Minnetonka, past president of
the American Legion Auxiliary, wished to comment on how the
members of the American Legion were treated during the
Acrogymnastics request this evening. Bertrand stated that
several Legion members were present and were not allowed to
comment on the issue of the license for the Acrogymnastics
Sports Education Association. Bertrand stated frustration in
the Council's choice not to act on the issue of Charitable
Gambling. The American Legion was currently in a very
critical situation regarding its ability to continue
operations.
Peterson noted that the American Legion Club was not on the
Agenda this evening. He added that this was an unfamiliar
organization and believed that Mr. Winkler presented his case
quite clearly. Peterson emphasized that it was this
organization's application and not the American Legion Club
which was being discussed.
Bertrand believed that the decision made by the Council was a
direction reflection on the American Legion Club and its
operations. Bertrand believed that a spot be left open for
public comment on the agenda.
Tenpas believed that the Council wanted to treat all
organizations fairly.
2oS
City Council Minutes 19 September 19, 1989
Pidcock stated that if the members of the American Legion Club
had approached Staff and requested to placed on the Agenda
this evening it would have been done. Pidcock concurred with
Tenpas that the Council wanted to treat all organizations
fairly and this was the purpose of the special committee
appointed by the City Council.
Bertrand stated that the American Legion Club as the holder of
the license had as much interest in the application as the
organization applying. Pidcock replied that if any member of
the American Legion Club had raised their hand at the time of
discussion they would have been allowed to comment.

I. APPROVAL OF AGENDA AND OTHER ITEMS OF BUSINESS
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Harris, to approve the
agenda, as published. Motion carried unanimously.
A. Response to MPCA reLPronosal for Permit for BFI Medical
Waste Incinerator
Assistant City Attorney Ric Rosow reviewed the draft
permit on public notice for an air emission facility
requested by BFI Medical Waste Systems of Minnesota.
He said the notice from the MPCA gives the City three
options:
1. The City can submit comments or concerns on the
draft permit.
2. The City can request a public information meeting at
which the MPCA and the applicant would explain the
proposal to the public.
3. The City can request a contested case over the
issuance of the permit.
Rosow said the Supreme Court has recently clarified what
it takes to obtain a contested case hearing from the
MPCA. He said it must be shown that evidence can be
produced that is contrary to the action proposed by the
Agency. He said the facts and the expert advice must be
gathered when a contested case is requested.
40')
City Council Meeting 2 May 8, 1990
In regard to whether such a facility would require a
mandatory Els or EAW, Rosow said the emissions as set
forth in the draft permit are substantially below the
levels that trigger a mandatory EAW. He said any
governmental unit that has authority with respect to
whether the project goes ahead can determine that it may
have potential for substantial environmental impact
because of the nature or the location of the project.
Harris asked if the standard is our demonstrating that
there is significant impact. Rosow replied that the
petitioner must give a description of a potential
environmental effect that may result and must submit
material evidence indicating that, because of the nature
and location, there is a potential environmental effect.
Peterson asked what data we have that indicates we might
have evidence for such a petition. Rosow said he was not
aware of any.
Anderson asked if there might be questions about
materials that may be burned. City Manager Jullie
replied that some materials would become airborne but how
serious they are is the question. He said the emissions
seem to meet the MPCA standards so he wasn't sure how we
would determine that the emissions pose a health threat.
Rosow said the deadline of the 11th does not apply to a
process where a determination would be made on requiring
an EAW; however, a request for a contested case must be
made by the 11th. Rosow also said that the emissions are
low enough so that the PCA would not technically require
a permit.
Zoning Administrator Jean Johnson said she checked the
records for violations and there were several instances
where the MPCA was notified regarding odor, particulates
and open flames. She also said there is no specific site
plan to review for the new facility; however, the outside
unit will be about 16 feet high and 20 feet wide and the
stack will be 40 feet high.
Pidcock asked what actions the PCA took when notified of
the violations. Johnson said they found violations.
Pidcock asked if the operator was fined. Johnson said
she didn't know.
Anderson asked if the past violations can be used against
the company in the granting of a new license. Rosow said
they can be used if it is the same company. Anderson
said he thought there is a need to look at things
differently in the 1990's and, if the past record of a
company shows violations, we should take the opportunity
to reject the license.
City Council Meeting 3 May 8, 1990
Peterson asked what permits would be required from the
City. Johnson said there are site plan review
ordinances, floodplain regulations and shoreline
regulations. She said any variance from the shoreline
regulations would have to go to the Board of Appeals &
Adjustments.
Tenpas asked if there are ordinances that restrict
portable structures on sites since this would be a
portable facility, not a permanent one. City Attorney
Pauly said he didn't think there is any prohibition
against portable structures in the I-General
classification.
Tenpas asked about liability insurance. Pauly said he
did not think there would be any problem with liability
insurance as far as being adjacent to the floodplain;
however, environmental insurance is another question
since nothing in the permit refers to environmental
insurance. Pauly said the first line would be for the
PCA to require it. He said the City may have an
opportunity to require it through its own permitting
process. He said the facility will obviously require a
number of variances.
Harris asked if the City can be overridden if we object
and don't allow a permit because we are not comfortable
with the site and proposed use. Pauly said he didn't
believe there is any preemption over local authority.
Harris asked for a review of the process in which we are
now engaged. Pauly said the comment period ends on May
11. If comments are submitted, those will be taken into
consideration and the MPCA may make changes or
alteration. He said if a request is made for a public
hearing, they might grant the request. He said if a
request is made for a contested case, the staff will make
a recommendation to the Board and the Board would have to
rule on that at one of the public meetings; however, they
would probably deny such a request.
Harris asked how long the decision process would take.
Pauly said it would probably be on the agenda for the
meeting held on the 4th Tuesday in June. Harris then
asked about the deadline for an EAW request. Pauly said
it could be no later than the date the MPCA would vote on
the permit.
Jullie asked if the City would have to do the MAW. Rosow
said if we made the determination on our own, the City
would have to do it; however if there is a petition to
the PCA, then the MPCA is the responsible unit.
City Council Meeting 4 May 8, 1990
Anderson said we have some sensitive areas near the
location including a senior citizen facility, a home
school, a camp, and a stream that runs down to a school.
He said we need to consider what the potential is for
escape of these materials and what the potential hazard
would be.
Pauly said we expect that when they make an appropriate
application, it will be accompanied by a site plan with
illustrations of the physical layout. He said we could
also in the process require further information as to how
the material would be handled, and, if the City chooses
to require an EAR, that is the kind of information an EAW
should cover.
Anderson asked if the City would pay for the costs of an
RAW. Pauly said it is prepared by the responsible
governmental authority. He said we have been asking the
applicants for development to prepare those, thereby
passing on the cost to the applicant.
Anderson said he questioned bringing this facility into a
heavily-populated area. Jullie said they don't have
another site lined up.
Tenpas said he was concerned about any type of waste
management facility in floodplains and asked if the MPCA
has any regulations in regard to floodplains. Rosow said
there are rules for solid waste disposal facilities that
prohibit floodplains as a site; however, he hadn't seen
any thing in the rules for medical wastes. He said there
are many different kinds of permits that they issue.
Peterson asked if the attorneys or staff recommend
getting involved prior to the formal process of the City.
Jullie said staff suggests that we ask for the public
information hearing. Peterson asked if we have a public
hearing would staff recommend that we have a technical
expert prepare the City for a certain line of questions.
Jullie said that might be appropriate.
Anderson asked what the next steps would be after the
public hearing. Rosow said the next step would be the
MPCA staff presenting a recommendation to the PCA Board
with an opportunity for our comment before the MPCA at
that meeting. The third step is the receipt of their
application for site plan review and request for
variances. Be said the Council may want to have the
attorneys examine the ordinances to see if they
adequately protect health and safety.
Peterson said he would hope that the applicant would
recognize that the staff will review every facet of the
application and operation and that there is a potential
1 1 0
City Council Meeting 5 May 8, 1990
for environmental and health concerns. Tenpas said he
thought it would be prudent for counsel to pursue
anything we could do through ordinances regarding the
floodplain or through requiring environmental insurance.
Pauly said one of the courses of action the City could
consider is an amendment of the code relating to zoning
which would either eliminate all general industrial uses
or non-related uses and eliminate specifically any type
of garbage or medical waste. He said another course
would be to prohibit the building of this facility
because of non-conforming use. He said the minimum lot
size is supposed to be five acres and this site is only
105 feet along the street and 250 feet deep--not even an
acre.
Pauly said the code is ambiguous on the need to have
materials stored within enclosures and it does not
require that the operation be within a building. He said
with regard to the floodplain issue, there is a clear
provision that there cannot be any storage or processing
of materials in the floodplain; however, only about 20%
of the lot is within the floodplain.
Pauly said the Shoreline Management Act simply imposes
some additional requirements with regard to size of lots,
specifically ten acres.
Pauly said they will look at the nonconforming use
situation a little more closely. He said we might also
consider strengthening the code provisions to create
greater restrictions with respect to conditions to be
imposed which would increase the safety and health
aspects.
Pauly said he thought this should also be considered in
the larger context of our situation with the landfill in
that whatever we do to oppose this may gain us a
reputation of opposing all such issues.
Peterson noted that we will be requesting a public
meeting with the MPCA and the applicant and that we will
pursue all reasonable methods to ascertain that, if there
is a permitted use, it will function properly.
OTHER BUSINESS
There was none.
IV. ADJOURNMENT
MOTION: Tenpas moved, seconded by Harris, to adjourn the

I. CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL
The meeting was called to order at 7:40 AM. Present were Councilmembers
Harris, Pidcock, and Tenpas; Committee members Cox, Brandabur, Gartner,
Lange, and Lyng; and Staff members Jullie and Dawson.
Also present were Pat Forceia, The November Group; Nancy Greene,
Corporate Video; and John Mueller, Eden Prairie News
II. NOTES OF APRIL 30 1990 MEETING
Pidcock moved and Tenpas seconded to approve the notes of this Committee
meeting. Committee members so voted unanimously.
III. STATUS OF VIDEO
Nancy Greene presented preliminary ideas and messages to be conveyed in
the video. It would be a documentary style, as this is the usual method
associated with receiving information. It would be more of a "people"
story than a technical one. Based on the types of filming to be done,
it appeared that two days of shooting would be needed. The estimated
budget for the video was approximately $13,000.
Council and Committee members wanted to be sure that the messages be
factual and objective. Having a few experts on camera could provide a
vehicle for viewers to make inferences. The video should be reviewed by
the City's attorneys for consistency with the City's litigation. The
focus of the video should be on environmental, health, and safety
issues. It should present a case that the whole City is fighting the
expansion, not just a neighborhood.
Thompson moved and Tenpas seconded that the Committee approve the video
proposal and to recommend that the City Council authorize funding.
Motion passed unanimously.
IV. POLITICAL STRATEGY
Forceia reiterated his recommendations made at the last Committee
meeting. He said he shared concerns expressed by the Committee
regarding the video.
/21
- 2 -
In terms of the City's approach, he said it was necessary always to be
factual. It should maintain professionalism when courting allies, the
media, and the Legislature; emotionality and excitedness would not serve
the cause well.
He believed that the landfill expansion could be made a statewide issue.
August and September will be busy for legislators. Gubernatorial
candidates should be courted. It would be important to have a community
event at which candidates would be invited after the primaries so that
realistic commitments can be made by persons who will have leadership
positions. Forceia could arrange this event. He concluded that
alliances need to be made with environmental groups, influence leaders,
and newsmakers across the state in order to get this issue to have
statewide importance during the elections.
IV. PUBLIC INFORMATION STRATEGY
A proposal from Mona, Meyer & McGrath was reviewed. It was decided tht
a meeting would be appropriate between a Long-Range Strategy
Subcommittee, MM&M, and The November Group to determine how the talents
of these organizations could be used more economically. The
Subcommittee would consist of Brandabur, Lyng; Tenpas, and Thompson.
MM&M would be asked to develop a one-page leaflet to distribute at
upcoming community events.
Brandabur left.
Harris was concerned that the Committee had not developed a budget or a
sense of how much money might be needed on individual components of the
Committee's strategy. The Councilmembers said they would place this
matter on the agenda for the May 15 Council meeting.
• V. UPDATES
Dawson related his understanding that Brandabur would be meeting with WCCO news staff. Thompson and Forceia stated that the City needed to be
extremely well-prepared for these meetings.
VI. NEXT COMMITTEE MEETING
The next meeting of the Committee was set for 7:30 AM Thursday, May 31,
at the Flagship Athletic Club.

MOTION
Harris moved, seconded by Pidcock, to approve the Consent Calendar.
Pauly discussed Item 0 on the Consent calendar regarding Liability,
Property and Workman's Compensation Insurance pointing out the 6%
reduction in premium this year. Pauly pointed out that up to 15 or 20
years ago cities were not liable for torts. At that time the
Legislature authorized that persons injured because of negligence on
the part of governmental agencies and municipalities could sue and
recover damages. The cap on this kind of law suit was now $600,000.
There were other categories of actions that did not have that cap,
Unapproved City Council Minutes 4 May 15, 1990
such as civil rights violations and environmental harm. What was
being done by this recommendation was that with respect to those
actions covered by the Minnesota Tort Claims Act, the City would not
waive the cap on liability. Tenpas asked if $1.6 million was enough.
Pauly said this was a judgment call and there have been instances of
recoveries more than that amount. Jullie said that there was a time
when the City had up to $5 million, but the cost became too high. It
had been cut back several times to the present $1 million which is
fairly standard for other cities of this size. Tenpas asked if the
Council could find out what other communities are doing. Julie said
Corporate Risk Management firm was doing a survey on this subject.
Consent Calendar approved as amended 5-0.

Peterson said that Eden Investments has withdrawn its application.
MOTION

acknowledge withdrawal of the request. Motion approved 5-0.
B. EDEN PRAIRIE FORD. Request for Zoning District Change from Rural
to C-Reg-Ser and Site Plan Review on 8.2 acres, with variance for
outdoor storage to be reviewed by Board of Appeals, and Preliminary
Plat of 24.6 acres into four (4) lots for construction of an automobile
dealership. Location: North of Plaza Drive, west of Crown Auto.
(Ordinance No. 20-90, Rezoning; Resolution No. 90-141, Preliminary
Plat)
Jullie announced that this public hearing had been properly
published and notified.
David Shea, architect for the proponent, Eden Prairie Ford, presented
the plans for the building and the surrounding area.
Enger reported on the meetings of the Planning Commission of April 9
and May 14, 1990. The Commission discussed land use and how this
proposal would work with the City Code. This type of car dealership
required outside display and storage of automobiles. Enger had a
number of pictures of other dealerships for comparisons and passed
them around for Council viewing. The Code did not permit outside
display of anything in excess of 10 percent of the floor area of the
building no matter what type of business it was. Other outside
displays such as Frank's Nursery, were enclosed in the building with
no roof. Menards was given a variance for outside storage of
Unapproved City Council Minutes 5 May 15, 1990
material on condition the outside storage be screened from all
adjacent land uses and public roads. The quandary with auto
dealerships was that the industry standard for years was to display
a significant number of cars as a way of advertising. Now there was
a trend away from the impulse buying and more toward a trend of
clustering dealerships.
The question the Planning Commission dealt with was whether or not
there was an inherent philosophical difference between the Code
about displays of material and how auto dealerships can be expected
to operate. In the future, would the dealership continue to screen
the cars or would the management attempt to call more and more
attention to the cars. The Planning Commission wanted to have a
statement from the people who would become the operators of this
dealership that they were in agreement with City Code and intended
to abide by it; if so a screened auto lot would be acceptable. The
operators had not given that kind of statement to the Planning
Commission.
Another issue was the level of lighting of the parking lot area. Auto
dealerships traditionally light their parking lots at a level higher
than other retail establishments. The Planning Commission decided
that an auto dealership should be treated the same as other retail
establishments in Eden Prairie such as the Lunds Center or
Northwest Racquet and Swim Club. The Planning Commission made a
recommendation that the average foot-candle level on the property
should not exceed 3-1/2 foot-candles. The proponents indicated to
the Planning Commission that they would like to do additional studies
on the Lunds parking lot, for example, to determine exactly what that
level of lighting was. The proponents have agreed to adhere to the
Planning Commission recommendation.
There was also discussion about the building itself and it was the
opinion of the Planning Commission that the building should be very
handsome, state-of-the-art, and a good example of something new in
auto dealerships. The Planning Commission received a rendering of
the building but not examples of exterior materials and colors.
The site plan had been altered significantly from the original site
plan and a significant amount of open space had been incorporated.
The idea was that there would be a highlighted area to call attention
to the building and, once on the site, the automobiles would be very
visible. The Planning Commission recommended approval of a request
which would require approval by the Board of Appeals and
Adjustments to obtain its approval on a variance request to allow
outside display and storage in excess of that allowed by Code. The
proposal stated that the request was mitigated by screening of all the
outside storage. The Planning Commission recommended approval
subject to the recommendations of the staff report of May 11. Eager
said that under Item 3, "prior to building permit issuance the
proponents shall submit samples of exterior building materials for
1,q/7
Unapproved City Council Minutes 6 May 15, 1990
review," normally that was done prior to the meeting of the Planning
Commission and quite often prior to City Council review. Enger
suggested that the Council review exterior material before final
approval.
Anderson commented that there were no plans or details as to what
was going to happen to the wetlands and no plans for drainage of the
floodplain area.
Shea replied that there were plans for drainage as part of the
package submitted to the Planning Commission. There would he less
than one acre of fill in the wetland area.
Don Brauer representing Denwal Ford said the encroachment
proposed did not encroach on the designated wetland of the DNR, so
no DNR permit was required. The Corps of Engineers permit would be
issued on the basis of one acre or less of their defined wetlands.
These were two different issues. Almost all of it was within the pond
area that was excavated for the Menards site. The City and the
Watershed District had asked for a more detailed study of the
drainage and storage of runoff water, which was in process.
Anderson asked who owned this area now,. Brauer replied that there
were five pieces, some owned by Denwal Ford, some by Mr. Walter
Carpenter. Brauer said that what the proponent was required to
provide was a study of the runoff. There was a dike that may have
to be modified. Also upstream was a larger functioning pending area
that the City had acquired. The purpose of the detailed study was to
accommodate the engineering aspects of runoff.
Pidcock asked if loudspeakers were part of the plan. Joe Doty,
representing the owner, spoke to this issue. He said the only system
that would be used would be for phone calls, not for advertisement.
Shea said that it would not have to be a large system because the
outside lot was not vast and would be more of an intercom for those
inside the building or close to it.
Pidcock said she was concerned about how the dealership would
impact the neighborhood with the general noise that would be
created. Doty said it was the proponents intention to comply with
any and all laws and codes. The intent was to be a good neighbor.
Peterson asked Enger to characterize the Planning Commission's
meeting the previous night in terms of issues not quite resolved and
any particular reservations that any of the members expressed.
Enger said the Commission was particularly concerned about getting a
letter of commitment from the owner/operator, who it had not talked
with. Peterson expressed disappointment that the owner/operator
had not been present either at the Planning Commission or at the
Council meetings. Enger said the Planning Commission had a similar
concern. Enger said a lot of the discussion revolved around the level
Unapproved City Council Minutes 7 May 15, 1990
of lighting and reluctance on the part of the owner to reduce the
foot-candle level. Even after continuing from the April 9 meeting the
Planning Commission wanted to have the lighting issue resolved, and
was asked to look at comparative situations such as Northwest
Racquet and Swim Club and Lunds. Northwest Racquet and Swim was
selected because there was a lighting diagram that showed the foot-
candle level every 30 feet on a grid. That was finally where the
average 3-1/2 foot-candle level, with one foot-candle at the edge and
no foot-candles off the property, came from. The Denwal Ford Plan
was still higher than that standard, although the proponent agreed to
the recommendations of the Planning Commission. The Planning
Commission was concerned that it had not seen the lighting plan as to
placement of lights and level of lights that would reflect the Planning
Commission's recommendation on the average 3-1/2 foot-candle level.
It was also concerned that it had not seen the exterior materials
because so much emphasis had been put on highlighting the building.
The Planning Commission was concerned that even if there were a site
plan which adequately screened the parking area, would a worse
problem be created by making the cars less visible. If the industry
needed to operate with more visibility, would there be more need for
whirling devices, search lights, etc., none of which were allowed by
City Code, but all of which were difficult to enforce if done on a
short-term basis.
Harris asked for clarification on the letter that the Planning
Commission wanted. Enger replied that it wanted a letter from the
owner/operator indicating agreement to operate without such devices.
The Planning Commission believed that these devices were a thing of
the past and that the owner/operator would give assurance that they
would not be used.
Anderson asked why the Council was looking at the plan now when
there were so many loose ends. Enger replied that at the April 9
meeting the Planning Commission this was discussed for two hours
and the issues were identified very clearly with the proponent. It
was believed that information would be available for the Planning
Commission meeting May 14. There had been some revision in the
plans but these other issues were not resolved. It was a case where
the Planning Commission did not want to delay the proponent as it
believed the issues could be resolved. Anderson asked if there had
been any undue pressure on the Planning Commission and staff to
accelerate the process. Enger said no undue pressure was put on
the staff. The Planning Commission made the decision to direct the
staff to publish a notice of hearing for the City Council meeting and
it made this decision with all the information it had on May 14.
Lambert added that the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources
Commission recommended unanimously to approve this plan at its May
7 meeting.
Unapproved City Council Minutes 8 May 15, 1990
Tenpas said he would abstain from the vote because of a business
relationship with the principals. He said he questioned how practical
It was to ask a proponent for a letter of agreement to abide with the
law and to operate without whirling devices, searchlights, those kinds
of things. If this was done for one developer, it should be done for
everybody. Peterson said he was not the intending to ask for a
letter saying the proponent would not break the law. As this was the
first car dealership that had come this far, it was his opinion that it
would not be inappropriate to have an interested owner assure the
City Council that the new marketing does not require the old-
fashioned approaches to selling cars. Frank's Nursery was asked
this same kind of thing. Enger said that there was a stipulation in
the development agreement for Frank's that was approved by the
Council, which listed the enforcement procedures by which the City
would operate in the event Frank's didn't operate in a clean and
workmanlike manner. The reason was that Frank's Nursery was
asking for something above what the City Code allowed, and the
mitigation was these assurances and plans. Anderson Garden and
Target also went through a similar procedure. Enger said he
believed this was consistent with the way the Council has performed
in the past.
Pidcock said that she was concerned about Tenpas's relationship with
the proponent and his participation at the Planning Commission
meeting. Tenpas stated that for the record he was employed by a
company that was partially owned by the people that owned this
dealership, but the companies were not related. He had no financial
gain if this proposal was or was not approved.
Brauer talked about lighting on one project he was working on where
the city involved was requiring 10 foot-candles of lighting in the
parking lot for safety reasons. He believed that soon Eden Prairie
would be getting such requests. Ten foot-candles was not sufficient
in parking ramps downtown. Shea believed there had been good
resolution of the issue of foot-candle levels with the Planning
Commission.
Shea said he also believed there had been approval of the materials
such as bricks and glass that would be used, even though actual
samples were not submitted to the Planning Commission. He
requested that the minor issues be brought up with the staff for
resolution.
Anderson said that in reading the Planning Commission minutes he
noted that Ma. Dodge was not happy with the plan and that it should
come back to the Planning Commission. Commissioner Ruebling also
said that he was not happy with it. They voted to recommend
approval it but they were uncomfortable with it. They were
concerned about the factors being discussed now. Anderson said he
would not vote for approval at this time.

Unapproved City Council Minutes 9 May 15, 1990
Peterson asked Enger about the concept of clustering of automobile
dealers, and was there adjacent land that could be considered for a
second or third automobile dealership. Enger replied that there were
probably other dealerships that could be located in the immediate
area. His remark was to show the contrast between the old ways of
doing business where auto dealerships would not be near each other
to avoid the competition.
Harris said she believed there was a long way to go on this project,
even though agreement was closer than months ago. She said she
thought the loose ends could be accommodated on the second reading.
However, with indications of Tenpas abstaining and Anderson voting
no, she believed this item should be continued.
MOTION
Harris moved, seconded by Pidcock, that this item be continued to the
next meeting of the Council.
In the meantime Harris urged that the remaining issues be addressed.
Peterson said he would like to have one of the proponents convey to
the owner/operator that the Council would appreciate some verbal
expression of the new form of marketing. Anderson said he was
concerned about the floodplain area, the materials that come off cars
and parking lots, and how the drainage problems were going to be
addressed.
Motion to continue to the next meeting of the Council on June 5
approved 4-0-1, (Tenpas abstaining.)
V. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS
MOTION
Harris moved the payment of claims, seconded by Pidcock.

1. Planting of Trees
Pidcock discussed planting of trees along the main streets in
Eden Prairie. She said she would like to see trees along every
street as done in Chanhassen.
Peterson said that perhaps the Council should study and revise
its policy in a work session. Peterson asked Dietz if he could
provide a memo to the Council on this subject, expressing
implications of what some policy changes might be. Dietz said
that the policy really depends on how close one desired to have
trees to the street and have them survive the salt in the winter.

Lambert went over the plans for Riverview Spring, making it a

purposes as mandated by the State.
Peterson recommended that the City do the minimum amount of
work necessary this year and let the Parks, Recreation and
Natural Resources Commission and the Historical and Cultural
Commission put this on their future agendas for consideration for
the next calendar year. Lambert said the work could be done
any time in the future.
Anderson said he was happy with the plan as it would preserve
some of the beauty of the area.
Lambert said this plan would cost about $1500 without any
signage. Tenpas said he would recommend doing this for this
amount of money. Anderson said he was also in favor and letting
the Historical and Cultural Commission come up with ideas for the
signage.
MOTION
Anderson moved that staff recommendation be approved. Tenpaa
seconded. Motion approved 4-1 with Peterson voting Nay.

G. Report of Director of Public Worki
1. Graffiti Bridge Alternatives
Dietz referred to the new memorandum from the Historical and
Cultural Commission dated May 9 and another copy of his memo of
March 30. Since the last time this item was discussed, Tote's,
Inc. had formed a new management team and had backed away
from any financial support. The Historical and Cultural
Commission had developed a new proposal which would take the
top off the bridge and move the abutments out to accommodate
the roadway. Dietz's observation was that this idea would still be
fairly expensive. In addition Hennepin County would be owning
that right-of-way and the County had gone on record as saying
Unapproved City Council Minutes 12 May 15, 1990
it did not want anything remaining of the bridge in the right-of-
way. The Historical and Cultural Commission argued that light-
rail transit was so far in the future that spending $90-100,000
would be justified to save that bridge or parts of it, and the coat
could be amortized over a period of time. However, when the
County came into ownership, it would not negotiate leaving the
bridge there. Dietz's recommendation was that if the desire was
to have a graffiti facility, incorporating that into a retaining wall
on the north side of the roadway would be the best alternative.
Harris said that if anything were done at all, this recommendation
would be the most feasible. She questioned whether the graffiti
wall would ever be used after the new road is constructed.
Tom Robertson, 6963 Woodland Drive, spoke. His company owned
property on the east aide of the bridge and on the north side of
Valley View Road to the west of the bridge. He said that although
he had some sentimental feelings about the bridge, his opinion
was that once the real graffiti bridge was gone, it could not be
replaced. As it was, the bridge posed some public safety
hazards, and to try to duplicate the bridge would not be a good
use of City funds. He also pointed out that it would not be fair
to potential residents of the adjacent property to have paint
spraying going on in their back yards.
John Hensrud, Chair of the Heritage Preservation Committee and a
member of the Historical and Cultural Commission spoke. lie
recommended against creating a new graffiti bridge. He pointed
out that the bridge itself was not historical. What was significant
was what was painted on the bridge. He said the best
recommendation his Committee could make would be to save the
south abutment.
Tenpas suggested doing a video tape of people putting paint on
the bridge, and having a permanent display at City Hall as a
remembrance.
Peterson and Anderson agreed that the bridge should be
removed.
NOTION
Pidcock moved, seconded by Harris, that Graffiti Bridge be
removed. Motion approved 5-0.

XI. NE'W BUSINESS
A. Status of Litisation Expenses
Tenpas requested an update of expenditures year-to-date on the
landfill. He questioned the item of Linda Lehman and encouraged
staff to get information from her as to whether her fees would
continue at that level or if she was nearly finished. Peterson said
that because she works at the discretion of the City's attorneys,
perhaps they could provide some projection for the remainder of the
year.
B. Video of Site of Medical Waste Incincerator
Tenpas said he had driven past the BFI site where medical wastes are
being disposed. He had asked staff to take a video of this site so
that Council could see it. Peterson said that a public meeting is in
the process on this subject.

THRU: Carl Jullie, City Manager
FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Natural
Resource
DATE: May 31, 1990
SUBJECT: Request from Rustic Hills Neighborhood for Improvements
to Rustic Hills Park
Attached is a memo from Barbara Penning Cross, Landscape Architect,
regarding a request from the Rustic Hills neighborhood for improve-
ments to Rustic Hills Park. Due to the lack of a quorum at the May
14th meeting, the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commis-
sion will not be reviewing this until Monday, June 4th, although,
three Commission members did hear the request at the May 14th
scheduled meeting. The staff recommendation is as follows:
1. City to install 2 park benches, 2 picnic tables, and 1 grill
this summer.
2. City to plant shade trees around the totlot in the fall of
1990.
3. City to acquire a new swing set with 6 seats in 1990, only if
the City is able to collect $800 in donations for this pur-
pose.
4. City staff will include a request for $3,200 for playground
equipment in the 1991 budget request.
5. City to skin the infield of the ball diamond during the summer
of 1990.
6. City staff would not recommend flooding a skating rink in this
park due to its proximity to other available skating rinks.
If the recommendation of the Parks, Recreation and Natural Re-
sources Commission is other than the staff report, staff will
request discussion at the City Council meeting on June 5th.

the residents in that area met with me to discuss the need
f
o
r
additions to the park. They stressed that there are many child
r
e
n
in the area who use the park frequently, and the playstructure
i
s
not large enough to accommodate the growing number of children
w
h
o
use it. The swings are of particular importance because of
t
h
e
popularity. The immediate concerns they would like to see for 1

are as follows:
1. Several park benches placed near the play equipment.
2. Several picnic tables for family picnics.
3. A grill for cooking.
4. Shade trees placed south of the totlot providing shade for the
playstructure.
5. A new swing set with six seats.
I stated the first three things on the list could be provided
b
y
our park crews as soon as they were able to install them. Our Pa
r
k
Manager estimated they would have these improvements someti
m
e
i
n
June. He also stated that we have money for four shade trees
t
h
a
t
could be planted south of the totlot to provide shade. These tre
e
s
could also be planted sometime in June.
The six seat swing set is priced in the catalogues at about $80
0
.
Cash park fees are now exhausted with the recent acquisitio
n
o
f
two parcels, so money for the swing set is not available. S
t
a
f
f
does not have a source for money during this budget year. If
t
h
e
neighborhood can raise enough funds for the purchase of the s
w
i
n

set, the City will commit to coordinating the project
a
n
d
installing the swing set. If the neighborhood is not able to r

problems.
The enclosed petition and cover letter also requests several items
to be included on the 1991 budget. These items are:
1. Additional play equipment including climbing apparatus, sand
cranes, and spring animals.
2. Sand volleyball court.
3. Skinned baseball diamond for with only the bases and a
pitchers mound skinned.
4. Skating rink to be flooded during the winter.
I would recommend that money to purchase additional climbing
structures, spring animals, and sand diggers be added to the .1991
budget. As stated above, money for the swing set should also be
included in the 1991 budget if the neighborhood is not able to
raise enough money for the swing set.
I spoke to our Park Manager concerning the volleyball court, the
skinned infield, and the skating rink. The Park Manager stated
there would be enough money in the 1991 budget for the park
maintenance crew to install a volleyball court. He.also said there
would be money to do a skinned infield in the ballfield, but
expressed concern about the partially skinned field. Small areas
are very difficult to maintain and he would like to see either the
whole thing skinned or the whole thing left alone.
The request for a skating rink will need to be a policy decision
for the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission. Staff
has used a one mile radius within the City to determine where
skating rinks need to be located. Rustic Hills Parks falls within
the one mile radius to Prairie View School/Park, where a skating
rink and a hockey rink already exit. Two mini rinks were installed
last year on a trial basis. Both locations, Wyndham Knoll Park and
Carmel Park, fell outside the one mile radius to an existing
facility.

The meeting was called to order at 7:30 p.m. by chairperson
Bud Baker. Upon determining there was an insufficient
number of Commission members able to attend the meeting,
Baker informed the audience that a quorum was not met;
therefore, the Commission could not take any official action
on any of the items on the agenda this evening. Baker
apologized to the residence in attendance and indicated the
Commission members present would hear the concerns of each
neighborhood and the petitions and these items would be
continued to the June 4, 1990 meeting.
II. PETITIONS. REQUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
1. Petition from Rustic Hills Neighborhood Concerning
Plavaround Improvements - Barb Cross summarized the
background information regarding the history of the park
and discussions she has had with neighbors and
summarized the petition submitted by the neighborhood.
Claire Hilgeman, 17493 Rustic Hills Drive, spoke as
the person representing the neighborhood. She
indicated they requested playground equipment and
improvements to the park as there are 143 children
under 16 years of age within the immediate neighborhood
and 10 licenced day care providers within a three block
area of the park.
Ms. Hilgeman indicated the request for 1990 was to
install trees around the playground equipment, some park
benches, picnic tables, and a swing set to accommodate
the high numbers of children that play in that
playground area. They also requested that for 1991 to
have the City install additional climbing apparatus,
IP3c)
Unapproved Minutes -PRNRC - May 21, 1990
skin the infield of the baseball field in order to
encourage kids to play there (rather than in the tennis
court), and to provide additional sand around the
playground apparatus to improve drainage.
Cross indicated the staff was recommending the City
commit to installing park benches, picnic tables, grill,
and 4 trees near the playground equipment this year.
All remaining funds in the cash park fee fund are
committed for additional projects; therefore, the only
method of providing funds for the additional requests
is through a 1991 budget request, or if the neighborhood
is able to raise funds in some other method. Cross also
indicated that a skating rink has been requested and
that request would be against policy to provide skating
rinks within the 1 mile service area of an existing
rink. This area is within the 1 mile service area of
the hockey rink and skating rink located at Prairie View
School/Park.
Del Vanderploeg indicated that he did visit the site
and agreed there were a lot of children using the
facility. He noticed there was standing water under the
swing and slide area.
David Kuechenmeister asked if the residents were
committed to donating funds to purchase the swing set
for 1990. Ms. Hilgeman indicated that 60% of the
residents indicated they would donate money toward this
project, and asked if money were donated whether or not
the City could order the equipment this year. Lambert
indicated that as soon as there was sufficient money
collected to pay for a swing set, the City would submit
an order. He also indicated that if money was collected
in 1990, but was insufficient to pay for a swing set in
1990, it could be put toward construction of facilities
requested for the 1991 budget. He indicated that if
people were interested in donating to the Rustic Hills
playground improvement project, they should write a
check to the City of Eden Prairie (Rustic Hills
playground improvements).
Baker indicated that the City would install the
facilities committed for 1990 and would include their
request in the 1991 budget. He also indicated that this
item would be included on the June 4th agenda for review
and approval by the full commission prior to be
forwarded to the City Council.

SUBJECT: Bicycle/Pedestrian Trail Across International School
Property
At the March 13th meeting the City Council reviewed International
School Phase II and approved a first reading for the second phase
of the building. The City Council indicated that prior to second
reading City staff were to investigate all alternatives for a
bicycle/pedestrian connection from Beach Road to Bryant Lake Park.
On March 28, Councilman Anderson and I met with Tracy Whitehead and
the owner of International School to review the City trail system
plan and the history requiring a trail connection from the west
side of 494 to Bryant Lake Park on the land just north of Bryant
Lake. Although the owner of the International School understood
the City's rationale for the trail connection, he continued to
oppose any trail across his property in order to protect "his
property, his students, and his liability".
Ms. Whitehead suggested that perhaps the City could construct a
trail across the northern part of their property and staff agreed
to meet with Ms. Whitehead to determine if there was a trail loca-
tion on the northern portion of this property. Barb Cross, Park
Planner for the City, and I met with Ms. Whitehead and her
landscape architect to determine if there was an appropriate trail
location on the northern portion of the International School
property. The only acceptable location for a trail, from Ms.
Whitehead's point of view, was in the right-of-way for Crosstown
Highway east of the Beach Road entrance, which is also the entrance
to the International School. Construction of a trail along this
section of Crosstown Highway would require a retaining wall approx-
imately 3' to 4' high and nearly 900' in length. A trail in this
location would also require a 6' chain link fence along the down
slope side of the trail the entire length of the trail.
On April 18th, I contacted Bill Warden, the individual at MNDOT,
that grants permits for development within State highway right-of-
ways. Mr. Warden indicated that they do not allow trails to be
constructed inside the chain link fence line along "controlled
access interstate highways". Crosstown is designed as a controlled
access interstate from Beach Road to the east. Mr. Warden further
a 41
stated that "we don't like people disrupting our 3-1 slopes", and would not like to see a trail constructed along any 3-1 slope.
When asked if he would give a formal acceptance or rejection of
this concept, he indicated that he would not until the City sub-
mitted plans and specifications, so he could "see what he was
reviewing". He did, however, make it very clear that it is a
policy not to allow construction on 3-1 slopes and not to allow
construction inside the right-of-way line along controlled access
freeways; therefore, it is highly unlikely the City would be able
to obtain permission to construct a trail in this location.
In the discussion with Doug Bryant, Superintendent of Suburban
Hennepin Parks, Mr. Bryant indicated it is the intention of the
Park Reserve District to provide a public access to their parcel
of property known as the "Hanley property" along the north end of
Bryant Lake. Mr. Bryant was supportive of a joint park District/City project to provide the trail to Bryant Lake Park via
the Hanley property.
Staff would recommend that the City Council reconfirm the concept
of a pedestrian/bicycle trail access to Bryant Lake Park from Beach
Road across the International School property connecting to the
trail system in Bryant Lake Park. Staff would further recommend
that when the Suburban Hennepin Parks District initiates the first
phase development of Bryant Lake Park, the City of Eden Prairie and
Suburban Hennepin Parks jointly initiate a trail connection project
from Beach Road to Bryant Lake Park across International School
property on the north end of Bryant Lake.

SUBJECT: Approval of Reimbursement to Watershed District
Board For Lake Riley Chain of Lakes Cleanup Project
Attached is an April 18, 1990 letter from Raymond A. Haik repre-
senting the Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed requesting City
payment of $8,333.00 the City had committed to the Lake Riley Chain
of Lakes restoration project. Also, attached are the April 19,
1988 Minutes that indicate City Council support of the payment with
the condition that the City of Chanhassen agree to acquiring the
necessary public accesses upstream.
A copy of the June 13, 1988 resolution from the City of Chanhassen
committing to acquiring the necessary public accesses on Lake Lucy
and Lake Susan is attached, as well as the City of Chanhassen's
staff reports relating to this project.
The Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District Board of Direc-
tors authorized Barr Engineering to proceed with developing the
work plan for the Lake Riley Chain of Lakes improvement project as
soon as Chanhassen passed the resolution committing to acquiring
accesses at both lakes, thus meeting the City of Eden Prairie's
requirement, as well as the overall project requirement of
acquiring accesses on all lakes that were impacted by this project.
Chanhassen was able to acquire an access on Lake Susan but after
many public meetings and lengthy negotiations, has been unable to
acquire an access on Lake Lucy as of this date. Eventually, the
Environmental Protection Agency withdrew the Grant Funding for this
project due to the long delay in initiating the project which was
caused by the delay in acquiring access on Lake Lucy. In the mean-
time, the Watershed District had expended in excess of $20,000 in
developing the work plan. Although this project is "on the shelf"
for now and is not eligible for any funding until an access on Lake
Lucy is acquired, the Watershed District is requesting
reimbursement for funds expended to date.
City staff recommend reimbursement of the Riley-Purgatory-Bluff
Creek Watershed District in the amount of $8,333 for funds invested
in this project and further request that this investment be con-
sidered in any local matching costs that may be attributed to a
similar clean waters project for the Lake Riley Chain of Lakes in
the future.

RE: MPA/EPA Agreement for Implementation of Lake Riley Chain
of Lakes Restoration Project
Dear Council Members:
The Managers of the Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed
District were disappointed that the demonstration project for
protection and restoration of the Lake Riley Chain of Lakes did
not proceed to the second stage. A growing public awareness of
the need to control non-point source pollution highlighted the
value of this major demonstration project funded in large measure
by the Environmental Protection Agency through the Minnesota
Pollution Control Agency. The Managers are working with the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and Environmental Protection
Agency to retain the option to carry out the second stage of the
project at some future date. This will require the active
assistance of the Cities of Chanhassen and Eden Prairie,
particularly with regard to project requirements requiring action
by the municipalities.
The Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District undertook
the project following agreements by Chanhassen and Eden Prairie to
pay a portion of the local project costs up to an amount not to
exceed $8,333.00. Action was taken by the Chanhassen City Council
on April 25, 1988, and by the Eden Prairie Council on April 19,
1988.

Eden Prairie City Council Meeting April 19, 1988
Page 10
At the Parks and Recreation and Natural Resources meeting on April 18th, Larry Paumen, 9712 Clark
Circle, indicated the estimated costs seemed high and that he and Bob Humphrey's, 9365 Garrison
Way, would plant the shrubs themselves saving on contractors expenses for installing shrubs.
MOTION
Pidcock moved, seconded by Harris to accept the Staff recommendation. Motion carried
unanimously.
3. LAKE RILEY CHAIN OF LAKES IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
Lambert repotted that in mid-1986. the United States Environmental Protection Agency awarded a
grant for the Lake Riley Chain of Lakes Improvement Project. A feasibility study was conducted
thereby becoming eligible for a Clean Lakes Program Grant Application.
The major goal of the project was to improve the water quality of Lake Riley; however, the project
would include removal of rough fish on all of the lakes upstream by installing fish barriers, aerators
where needed, and biomanipulation and aeration of Lake Riley.
Staff recommended that Council authorize entering into an agreement with the Watershed District and
the City of Chanhassen for local support of this project with the condition that the City of Chanhassen
agree to acquiring the necessary public accesses upstream and to fund 50% of the ongoing aeration
and maintenance costs for Lake Riley where by the City's cost would be approximately $7,550.
MOTION
Harris moved, seconded by Bentley to authorize Staff to enter into an agreement with Watershed
District and the City of Chanhassen for local support of the clean up project under the condition that
the City of Chanhassen agree to acquire the necessary public accesses upstream and agree to
funding 50% of the ongoing aeration and maintenance costs of Lake Riley. Motion carried
unanimously.
4. PURGATORY CREEK RECREATION AREA MAJOR ACCESS
Lambert reported that since 1981 when the Purgatory Creek Recreation Area Plan was originally
approved, the feasibility of the plan was studied and the proposed major access was moved several
times due to development of land or willingness of a property owner to sell land to the City for
development of the access.
He reported that the most recently approved plan was located on the property line of the Feeders and
Naegele properties. Representatives of the Feeders property have recently suggested a realignment
of Technology Drive and a modification of the major entry that would occur along the south side of the
realigned Technology Drive. The proposed design looked feasible on the plan; however, the
proposed area consists of deep peaty soils and Staff was concerned regarding the feasibifity of actual
construction of an entry in that location.
Lambert stated that the property immediately south of the Flagship Athletic Club and north of the
development formerly referred to as Castle Ridge, was another possible entry.
Staff recommended an access at both locations; however, the major access should be determined in
the near future and sufficient property acquired in order to develop the access and necessary parking
for this park.
Staff recommended that Council authorize hiring Brauer and Associates to review the feasibility of the
design proposed on Feeders site and to develop a design on the site south of Flagship for a major
entry. Staff estimated the study would take no more than six weeks and cost less than $3000.

SUBJ: Approval of Formal Commitment, Lake Riley Chain of Lakes
Cleanup Project
The Cities of Chanhassen and Eden Prairie and the
Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District agreed to each
contribute $8,300 towards a $50,000 budget for the Lake Riley
Clean Lakes Project work plan. The work plan was to be initiated
immediately by the Watershed District and completed by November
30, 1988. The work plan will provide a timetable and implemen-
tation plan for the clean water project. The DNR is contributing
close to $500,000 towards the clean water program and as part of
this is requiring any of the lakes involved in the program to
have a public boat access. One of the factors affecting the
funding of the project is that Lake Lucy and Lake Susan do not
have public boat accesses. The DNR and PCA want some form of
commitment from the City of Chanhassen that a public boat access
will be provided on Lake Susan and Lake Lucy.
Lake Susan has land available for a public boat access and funds
have been applied for for the development of a public boat
access. Lake Lucy does not have the property or any immediate
plans for a public boat access. Because of this, it was
necessary to meet with the Pollution Control Agency-and the DNR
to determine what the consequences would be if a boat access was
not possible on Lake Lucy and what exactly were they defining as
a public boat access. On Thursday, June 2, 1988, staff (Jo Ann
Olsen and Lori Sietsema) met with members from the
Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek Watershed District, the Pollution
Control Agency and the DNR to discuss the issue of a public boat
access on Lake Lucy. The PCA and DNR stated that a public boat
access on both Lake Lucy and Lake Susan was necessary for them to
participate in the project. Staff explained the difficulty of
immediately locating a public boat access on Lake Lucy. Staff
explained that the City did not control land suitable for a
public boat access at this time but would pursue locating a
public boat access through a study group and any required public
hearings and would initiate this process immediately.

The ONR and the Pollution Control Agency requires some form of
commitment from the City to the pursuit of a public boat access -
for Lake Lucy. This commitment is preferred prior to the expen-
diture of the $8,300 from Chanhassen, Eden Prairie and the
Watershed District for the work plan. Both the Watershed
District and Eden Prairie prefer not to spend the $8,300 on the
work plan if the additional funding needed for the whole project
will be removed by the DNR and the Pollution Control Agency.
Staff has prepared the attached proposal with a timetable for the
location and improvement of a public boat access on Lake Lucy.
Also attached is a letter of commitment from the Chanhassen City
Council. Staff feels that if we can provide the timetable and
the letter of commitment that this will satisfy the DNR and the
PCA and that the project can move forward. Staff recommends that
the City Council approve the attached letter of commitment and
timetable and that it be signed by the mayor and sent to the DNR,
PCA and the Watershed District.

Dear Mr. Obermeyer:
am 25 19"
Be125 glitalt.
The Chanhassen City Council recently made a commitment to the Lake
Riley Chain of Lakes Program. They have approved the expenditure of
$8,333 to help pay for the development of the work plan.
Additionally, the Council is aware that public access is required on
all of the lakes involved in the project. As access is not currently
available on Lakes Lucy and Susan, the attached schedule was approved
for the development of such. The City does not believe it will take
long to complete the installation of an access on Lake Susan, as
parkland is currently owned by the City that is suitable for lake
access. Lake Lucy presents some problems due to the wetlands and the
development around the lake. Therefore, the schedule for public
access on Lake Lucy is considerably longer.
The LAwCON Grant application process is included in the schedule as
the city is unlikely to afford these projects without financial
assistance. LAWCON applications are submitted for projects to be
started the following year, i.e. applications are submitted in 1988
for 1989 projects. Chanhassen has been very successful in the past
having received at least 8 grants in the past 10 years.
Also attached, please find a resolution outlining the City's commit-
ment to gain access on Lake Lucy and Susan. The Chanhassen Park and
Recreation Commission will act as the lead agency for the access pro-
cess. As I am the staff representative for this commission, please
contact me if you have any questions.

Resolution requesting Hennepin County Board to
Restore Funds for Fairview Detox Center
May 30, 1990
Much to everyone's surprise, in April the Hennepin County Board of
Commissioners dropped its $300,000 funding of the Fairview Receiving and
Evaluation Center (also known as the Detox Center) in Eden Prairie. This
action leaves the southern and southwestern suburbs without an easily
accessible detoxification facility. Unless the Board restores funding,
suburban police departments will need to devote greater resources to
transport persons to facilities in Plymouth or Minneapolis, or release them
to "responsible parties" and run the risk of having them return to the
community immediately if those parties do not act responsibly. Concerns
have been raised that the public cost to provide treatment at the two
remaining centers may be more expensive (due to overcrowding,
transportation, or the alternative of detention) than the existing three-
center system.
At this time, the Fairview Board of Directors has decided to operate the
detox center for awhile without County funds; it is doubtful that the
center could be operated at a significant loss for an extended period of
time. It is seeking support in its request for the Board to restore
funding. As an initial effort, Councils of the cities using the facility
are considering resolutions to urge the Board to rescind its decision.
Edina has adopted such a resolution, and Bloomington and Minnetonka will
have them scheduled for upcoming Council meetings. Given the magnitude of
finances involved, these positions need to be voiced as quickly as
possible.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommeded that the Council adopt Resolution No. 90-
153 requesting that the Hennepin County Board restore funding for the
Fairview Receiving and Evaluation Center.

Established in 1980, served more than 17,000 patients
Location: in Eden Prairie (Hwy. 169 & Valley View Road) in
southwest Hennepin County
19-person capacity
The center cared for 10 percent more patients in 1989 than
in 1988 (2,100 in 1988 and 2,300 in 1989)
Hennepin County pays for 65 percent of center's patients
(those from Hennepin County unable to pay); remaining 35
percent comes from insurance, Scott and Carver counties and
self-pay
Average length of stay 2.03 days; shortened from 1988's 2.4
days, due to increased efficiencies, resulting in ability to
care for more patients
75 percent of patients are between ages of 18 - 44
22 percent of patients are women
Cocaine-using patients are increased dramatically; in 1986,
2 percent of the patients said they'd used cocaine compared
with 9 percent in 1989
Recividism:
83% of those admitted do not return
In the center's 10-year history, 2 percent of the patients
have been at the center more than 5 times
.02% of the patients have been at the center more than 15

FACTS
CUTS /N HENNEPIN COUNTY SUBURBAN DETOXIFICATION SERVICES
Suburban detoxification services in Hennepin County will be cut 46
percent (from 41 beds to 22 beds) effective June 1.
In mid-April the Hennepin County commissioners voted to cut the annual
budget for suburban detoxification from 8940,000 to $640,000.
Hennepin County funds for suburban detoxification will go only to Union
City Mission Care in Plymouth. Fairview Receiving and Evaluation Center
in Eden Prairie will receive no Hennepin County funding, putting the
program in jeopardy of closing. See the statistics below for numbers of
people from southwestern Twin Cities suburbs who received care at
Fairview Detox.
In November, 2020 Adolescent Receiving Center (detoxification for
adolescents) near downtown Minneapolis closed because of lack of
Hennepin County funding. If you include their 14 beds, a total of 60
percent of the detox beds in the county have been cut ( from 55 beds to
22 beds).

WHEREAS, the distance of the Plymouth facility presents a serious
difficulty to use its services due to ineffective use of time and personnel
resources; and

to provide safe detoxification for inebriated persons; and
WHEREAS, intoxicated people who cannot be admitted to a detoxification
center present a threat and danger to the safety and tranquility of the
community; and

prevention of harm to others; and
WHEREAS, the south suburban communities of Hennepin County have the largest
population and receive the lowest level of detoxification services; and
WHEREAS, the City of Eden Prairie makes an added investment in the Center
by willingly responding to calls for public safety services, calls which often
involve difficult situations; and
WHEREAS, the City of Eden Prairie understands the need for certain Hennepin
County budget amendments;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That the City Council of the City of Eden
Prairie asks the Hennepin County Board of Commissioners to continue the funding

Eden Prairie, and that it give serious consideration that this funding be done
so that available funds for all Hennepin County detox centers are distributed on

The connection charges and fixed charges on the Water and
Sewer bills tether with the interest earned an these fees
have been deposited in a Water and Sewer Debt Service Fund.
While investigating the rules concerning arbitrage we learned
that if these funds were left in a Debt Service Fund they
would be subject to arbitrage rules. Since there is no
requirement that they should be in a Debt Service Fund they
should be removed and placed in a fund which is not subject
to arbitrage regulations.
Balances in this new fund could be appropriated for debt
service, construction of utilities or other uses with respect
to utilities.

Re: Tax Increment and Water and Sewer Funds
Dear John:
Enclosed are the resolutions you requested to
appropriate the remaining special assessments from the Tax
Increment Fund to the General Fund, and to correct the overpayment
of water and sewer revenues into the debt service funds in the
Water and Sewer Fund. As we discussed previously by telephone, we
are of the opinion, based on the facts which you gave us and those
recited in the enclosed resolutions, that the appropriations and
transfers contemplated by these resolutions are proper and
permitted by Minnesota law.

RESOLUTION RELATING TO THE WATER AND SEWER FUND
OF THE CITY; CORRECTING AN IMPROPER ALLOCATION
OF CONNECTION CHARGES AND USER FEES TO THE DEBT
SERVICE FUND THEREIN .
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Eden
Prairie, Minnesota, as follows:
1. The City has heretofore issued general obligation
revenue bonds payable from the debt service funds established
within the City's Water and Sewer Fund'. The bonds are payable
from a combination of special assessments, water and sewer
revenues and, to the extent necessary, ad valorem taxes. The
resolutions under which the bonds were issued require the City to
deposit in the debt service funds all of the special assessments
levied with respect to the projects financed by the bonds, and so
much of the revenues derived from user fees, connection charges
and other fees and charges for the use and availability of the
water and sewer utility as are necessary in each year to provide
for the payment of the debt service on the bonds.
2. It has come to the attention of the City staff that,
inadvertently, water and sewer revenues have been deposited in the
debt service funds in excess of those necessary to pay annual debt
service. As a result, a surplus has been accumulated in the debt
service fund, consisting of moneys which should not have been
deposited therein, and which, if not so deposited, could be used
for other water and sewer purposes. After consultation with bond
counsel, City staff recommends that a portion of the user fees and
connection charges, and investment income attributable thereto, be
transferred from the debt service funds to another fund within the
water and sewer group of accounts.
3. This Council hereby appropriates an amount equal to
the user fees and connection charges collected from Avaa,3,- / ,
1921to and including July 1, 1990, and investment income thereon
for the same period, from the debt service funds within the water
and sewer fund of the City, and subsequent collections of user
fees and connection charges, to thearti./rIgusanvefund within the
water and sewer group of accounts of the City. Such appropriation'
shall only be made to the extent that it does not cause the
balance in any debt service fund to be less than the debt service
payable on the bonds payable therefrom in the next succeeding
twelve month period.
ADOPTED by the city council of the city of Eden Prairie this
5th day of June, 1990.

This is a continued item from the May 15, 1990 City Council
Meeting. The City Council directed the proponent to revise plans
and provide additional information regarding landscaping, exterior
materials, lighting, signs amd storm drainage.
1) Landscaping
The landsdape plan has been revised to increase the height of the
conifers along the front parking lot from 6 feet to 8 to 10 feet.
2) Exterior Materials
The building elevations depict the type of exterior materials for
the building. The building plans are in compliance with City Code
for approved exterior materials. The majority of the building will
be a medium brown face brick and glass. Red and blue will be used
for the sign colors. An exterior materials board will be available
at the City Council meeting for review.
3) Lighting
The lighting plan has been revised according to the previous
recommendations for a 3.5 foot candle average in the front parking
area, a 10 foot candle rating for the display area (2600 feet) and
a .5 foot candle rating at the property line adjacent to Plaza
Drive.
4) Storm Drainage
The Storm Drainage Study indicates a 100 year flood elevation
of 837.9. The Engineering Staff has reviewed the study and found
adequate storage capacity in the pond for the drainage area of 427
acres. The grading plan indicates that the parking area at its
lowest point is at elevation 842 and the elevation of the building
is 846.
I31,V
5) Aians
The owners, Walter Bush and Dennis Hecker, have indicated in the
attached letter that, baloons, flying objects and a carnival
atmosphere are not needed to sell cars. The owners will be present
at the Council Meeting to discuss "special events" advertising for
3-4 times a year such as Fourth of July, Labor Day, etc.
HWY 212
The City Staff recently attended a meeting in Bloomington on May
22, 1990, to review the updated Highway 212 plans. At this
meeting, BRW, presented plans to the State of Minnesota, the City
of Eden Prairie and Bloomington. The plans are different from the
1989 Highway 212 plans. The current plan shifts Plaza Drive 40
feet west of the existing curb line, in order to accommodate a
braided ramp which is designed to eliminate cross weaving of
traffic from Highway 494 to 212.
The current plan will have an impact on the Eden Prairie Ford site.
Attachment A indicates that the 40 foot shift in Plaza Drive (which
coincides with the limits of the official map for 212) will
eliminate the berming and landscaping along Plaza Drive required to
screen the outdoor sales and display.- The attachment also
indicates a need for 15 feet of right of way-beyond the official
map limits to provide room for snow storage and utilities along
Plaza Drive. MnDOT has not approved the new 212 plans. It may be
several months before there is an official response. Although the
braided ramps at this time are not anticipated to be built with the
first stage of 212 construction at the interchange with Prairie
Center Drive, we would expect that the state would acquire the
maximum amount of right of way for the braided ramp construction in
the future. This could mean that Plaza Drive would be shifted 40
feet to the west as early as 1993, which is the current starting
date for the construction of the Highway 212, Prairie Center Drive
Interchange. The need for additional right of way is important to
Eden Prairie because it allows Highway 212 to be built in a way
which provides the best overall access for Eden Prairie.
There are two alternative scenarios for the development of this
site based upon the new Highway 212 plans.
nternative #1
If the project is built as proposed, when Plaza Drive is relocated
40 feet to the west, all berming and landscaping necessary for
screening of the outdoor display area will be removed and the site
will be highly visible from Highway 212. If the braided ramps are
constructed concurrent with the 212 interchange or at a later date,
the ramp will be at a higher elevation providing more visibility
into the site.
Alternative 42
/f the development plans are revised according to attachment B,
the same level of berming, landscaping and screening as the current
plan can be provided while allowing for the necessary right of way
for Highway 212 construction. This will result in the loss of 50
spaces for automobile display in front of the building. Display
areas should be screened from Plaza Drive and 212 but may be
visible from the braided ramps.
Staff met with the owners on Friday to discuss the impacts of new
Hwy 212 plans. The owners indicated they could not live with the
loss of 50 auto display spaces because the business depends on
^drive-by" visibility, and may have to consider looking at
alternate sites in the area.

Eden Prairie, Minnesota 55344
Dear Council Members & Staff:
We are applying for a building and use permit to construct
a Ford dealer outlet on Highway 212 in your City on the property
lying east of and adjoining Menard's and south of the Crown
Auto Store. This dealership is presently in Minnetonka and
is known as Tonka Ford. We have owned and operated this facility
since September 1, 1988. We believe we can upgrade the property
which has some swampy characteristics and make the facility
a first class building, blending well with the present environmental
conditions.
We now own seven dealerships in Minnesota and one in
the Orlando, Florida area. These are Tonka Ford; Forest Lake
Ford & Jeep/Eagle; Forest Lake Chrysler Plymouth Dodge; Southview
Chevrolet & Jeep/Eagle; Northtown Nissan; Inver Grove Ford;
Pine City (Car City - All G.M. Products); and, Action Nissan
in Kissimmee, Florida. We also are partners in I.R.A. & Payless
Rent A Car companies in the Twin Cities. We also operate Walden
Leasing nationally with offices here and in Florida. Its principal
business is to lease vehicles to daily rent-a-car companies
in the resort areas of the southern and eastern United States.
As persons charged with operating the City we know you
have concerns for the well being of the City and wonder what
impact this facility will have on the neighborhood and surrounding
area. We don't believe you can sell cars by displaying flying
objects above the building, brass bands, balloons and a carnival
atmosphere as seen in parts of our area. We believe that service,
quality of product, advertising and a good relatiOnship with
potential customers in our immediate area will sell cars and,
hopefully, will sell cars to repeat, well satisfied customers.

Here is a brief background on each of us.
Walter L. Bush, Jr. - Sixty years old. Lived in southwest
area of Minneapolis suburbs entire life. Graduate of Breck
School, Dartmouth and University of Minnesota Law School.
Practiced law thirteen years; founder and President of Minnesota
North Stars and later, employee of team (Vice President) for
seventeen years. In automotive business for seven years.
Dennis E. Hecker - Thirty-eight years old. Lived in the Minneapolis
area entire life. Attended Patrick Henry High School and the
University of Minnesota. Served in U.S. Army. Virtually in
the car business all his working life. Recipient of many automobile
factory awards and well known nationally for his exceptional
efforts on behalf of the factories.
Both of us were owners of the Minneapolis Auto Auction
which was sold to General Electric in 1987. We now office
on the border of Eden Prairie and our plans at present are
to move our offices to the second floor area of the new facility
when completed.
We both are sorry for any misunderstanding concerning
our not being present at the last council meeting. One of
us, Walter Bush, was attending an international hockey event
as the USA representative and the other, Dennis Hecker, was
in the Orient on a business trip working with one of our factory
accounts.
We sincerely wish to do business in Eden Prairie and
feel we can be an asset to your community. We believe there
are many of your residents who would like to have a dealership
closer to home for the service convenience. The use of the
factory signage and a small number of flag poles - three to
six - should provide us with exposure. Also, the site lends
itself to being seen by the public.
If you have questions, we would be happy to answer them
at your meeting on June 5, 1990. Thank you for your consideration.

Backaround
The site plan review and
preliminary plat involve
two sites previously
developed including the
Computer Depot building
zoned 1-2 and built in
1984 and the Wilson
Learning building zoned
Office and constructed in
1988. The owners of the
Computer Depot building
now known as the
Americable building are
requesting site plan
review and preliminary
platting of the property
to accommodate additional
parking stalls on their
site.
Preliminary Plat
The preliminary platting of the 22.56 acres into three lots meets
Code requirements for lot size and will not affect minimum
requirements for setbacks to existing parking or structures.
fits Plan
A total of 83 additional parking spaces are proposed, meeting
setback requirements. The plan has been designed to allow for the
continued use of a maneuvering area for trucks to turn around. The
construction of the additional parking Spaces will affect existing
berming and landscaping on site. The proponent provides for the
relocation, or replacement of all affected landscaping materials.
In addition, a site line has been provided from the Valley View
Road/Highway #212 bridge indicating that the proposed berming and
plantings will maintain the necessary screening of the loading
area.
Recommendations
Planning Staff would recommend approval of the site plan review and
preliminary plat of 22.56 acres into three lots subject to plans
dated May 1, 1990, this report and the following:
1. Prior to release of the Final Plat, the proponent shall
provide a landscaping bond to cover the relocation or
replacement of all affected plant materials.
2. Developer acknowledges that any site lighting to be
implemented in conjunction with the additional parking spaces
shall be identical to the existing downcast pole lighting on
site.

Re: Wilson Ridge 3rd
Dear Scott:
In follow-up to your letter regarding your observations and concerns based
upon preliminary review of the project by the city, we have developed a
grading and planting plan which will provide screening of most of the new
parking and service areas of the Americable building. However, we were
unable to build a berm 100% on the Americable lot near the 10-13 new parking
spaces closest to Flying Cloud Drive. We believe that the existing 30' high
mound on the Wilson Learning Center lot (just south of this parking area)
provides excellent screening. We propose that in addition to the planting
and screening shown in our submission, we be allowed to rely on that berm
for part of our screening.
If and when we remove that large berm on the Wilson site, we recognize we
may expose some views into the Americable lot. At that time we propose to
address those (sight line) issues into Americable. The city, through its
review process on any Wilson Center expansion can remind us of this committ-
ment. We believe that the most efficient and attractive resolution can be
achieved at that time.
If you have any questions or comments, please contact me at 829-5829.
Thank you for your consideration.

RE: WILSON RIDGE 3RD
Dear Tim:
In follow-up to our conversation today, it is my understanding that
you are the contact person for the Wilson Ridge 3rd project.
This project will be scheduled for the May 14, 1990 Planning
Commission meeting. The City has completed a preliminary review of
the project and has identified the following items and issues for
your consideration:
1. Any existing or proposed parking shall maintain a minimum of
10' from the new lot line. This includes the Wilson Learning
site.
2. Proposed parking along the building may not be allowed if it
causes the exposure of additional plain concrete block wall
face since it doesn't meet Code.
3. Proposed parking removes both berming and existing landscaping
from the site. A landscaping plan will be required which
addresses the relocation of this plant material along with
additional berming near Flying Cloud Drive. This berm could
be constructed within the Wilson Learning property.
4. The parking islands shall be designed for tree planting and
constructed with concrete curbing. The most westerly island
shall be a minimum of 10' wide.
5. To protect the truck turn-around throat, concrete curbing
shall be used to delineate the parking from the turn-around
area and identified for no parking.
6. Provide the proper drainage and utility easements on the plat.

7. For your information, the relocation of this lot line will add
Office Zoning to the already zoned 1-2 Americable site.
Rezoning the property will not be necessary, but has been
brought to your attention.
Please see that 12 sets of revised plans are submitted to this
office by May 1st in order that a Staff Report may be drafted.
Should you have any questions, please call.

added that even though the previously approved plat was still
valid, he believed that further negotiations would benefit all
parties.
Olson stated. that there was some flexibility in the road
alignment and it could be moved up to 15 feet in some areas.
He added that the lots next to the shoreland could be adjusted
to reduce the impact.
The Planning Commission directed the proponents to remove the
building pads from the conservancy area, adhere to the
Shoreland Ordinance guidelines, and minimize the tree lose as
much as possible. The Planning Commission indicated that it
would be open to viewing a plan for multiple-family housing in
the northern portion of the proposal.
Hallett asked if the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources
Commission had reviewed the proposal. Franzen replied that
Director Lambert had attended the initial meetings. Hallett
recommended that the proposal be reviewed by the Parks,
Recreation & Natural Resources Commission.
Ruebling stated that he was uncomfortable with the number of
variances required and questioned if a density transfer would
be feasible in this area. The remainder of the Planning
Commission concurred.
Franzen asked if the direction of the Planning Commission was
to eliminate all variances or to return to the Planning
Commission with a better site plan which would minimize the
number of variances required. Ruebling believed that the site
plan should be improved with a minimal amount of variance
requirements.
Hallett stated that it was difficult to get a good feel for
the area and recommended that a field inspection might be
appropriate.
Norman asked Olson how a continuance would affect Argus
Development. Olson replied that Argus Development would like
to see the project constructed this year. He added that the
house was currently vacant and there was concern regarding
vandalism. Olson added that either plan would work for Argus
Development, but they did need to move in some direction soon.

concept of lower priced one-story townhouses units in other
communities, which had been successful. The price range for
the townhouse units would be between $120,000 and $130,000.
Carlson believed that the townhouse units would blend in well
with the existing neighborhood. At this time Carlson had not
conducted a neighborhood meeting; however, he had discussed
the plan with residents this evening. The project would

Rock Ranch Developer's
Agreement dated December 13,
1988 states that Phase V is
established for development at
not more than 31 units.
The 8.97 acre tract is recorded
as Outlot C, Boulder Pointe.
This property is currently
guided Medium Density
3.
PROPOSED SITE
"
/3,9 AREA LOCATION MAP
Residential and is zoned R1-22. The proponent is requesting a
zoning district change from R1-22 to RM-6.5 to allow for the
construction of 15 duplex buildings.
Bite Plan/Preliminary Plat
Legally described as Outlot C, Boulder Pointe, this property will
be subdivided into 31 lots for the construction of 15 duplex units.
Outlots A and B will be deeded to the adjacent property owners for
inclusion within their project sites. The proponent is requesting
a zoning district change from R1-22 to RM-6.5 which would allow up
to 6.7 units per acre. The plans depict 30 units at a density of
3.39 units per acre. The proposal meets the minimum requirements
of the RM-6.5 Zoning District.
Access to the site would be provided by the extension of Mitchell
Road to County Road #1. Construction on this section of Mitchell
Road is expected to begin in June and be substantially completed by
November. Access to the units will be provided by three private
cul-de-sacs built to City standards. Because the streets are
private, the buildings may be placed closer to the street than 30
feet which is required in the RN-6.5 Zoning District. A minimum of
25 feet behind each garage stall to the curb is required to allow
for driveway parking. All buildings must be placed a minimum of 25
feet from the curb. Based upon a parking requirement of 2 spaces
per unit, sixty parking stalls are required. Each unit has a two
stall garage and driveway parking. There are 9 other spaces
scattered throughout the project for overflow parking.
Grading
Natural elevations on this site range from a high point of 894
along the east and west property lines to a low point of 854 in the
northwest corner of the site. The entire site will be graded in
order to allow for construction of Mitchell Road, the development
of the retention pond, and to allow for the construction of 30
duplex units. In order to match grade along the eastern property
line, 2 - four foot retaining walls are proposed.
Utilities
Utilities are available to the site by connections made to proposed
utilities within the proposed Mitchell Road extension. Storm water
run-off is proposed to be collected through a catch basin system
located throughout the project site. All site drainage is proposed
to the retention pond along the northern portion of the property.
The pond design will be completed in conjunction with the final
plans for Mitchell Road.

I NO
Architecture
The proponent has submitted three different architectural plans for
review. In order to provide additional architectural variety,
units 9, 19, and 29 will be redesigned with side loaded garages.
These units measure approximately 39 feet in width and are
approximately 66 feet in depth. Overall, each unit would contain
approximately 1,500 square feet on the first floor. All of the
unit types are single story and are designed as walkouts, lookouts,
or rambler style. Proposed building materials include lap siding
and facebrick along the front elevations.
Landscaping
The landscape plan depicts a total of 383 caliper inches of plant
material which meets the City Code requirement for landscaping.
There are a total of 58 cedar trees along the northern portion of
the site ranging in size from 2-6 inches. A total of 18 trees will
be saved with the development of this project. In addition, there
is an existing stand of 2-8 inch boxelder trees which will be
removed due to the construction of Mitchell Road and the retention
pond.
Pedestrian Systems
Final plans for Mitchell Road indicate an 8 foot bituminous path
along the west side and a 5 foot concrete sidewalk along the east
side.

EOULDER POINTE WEST TOWNHOMES. by David Carlson Companies for
Zoning District Change from R1-22 to RM-6.5 on 8.26 acres,
Site Plan Review on 8.26 acres, Preliminary , Flat of 8.97 acres
into 31 lots, 2 outlots and road right-of-way for construction
of 30 duplex units. Location: Northeast corner of Pioneer
Trail and Spring Road. A public hearing.
David Carlson presented the plans for a 30 unit townhouse
subdivision. Carlson stated that he had introduced a new
concept of lower priced one-story townhouses units in other
communities, which had been successful. The price range for
the townhouse units would be between $120,000 and $130,000.
Carlson believed that the townhouse units would blend in well
with the existing neighborhood. At this time Carlson had not
conducted a neighborhood meeting; however, he had discussed
the plan with residents this evening. The project would
provide 3 entrances from Mitchell Road. Carlson noted that
the landscaping would be increased along County Road 1.
Uram reported that this was the last medium density section to
8
IU3
be developed in the Red Rock Ranch area. The delay in the
project had related to the connection of Mitchell Road and
County Road 1. All of the access for the subdivision would be
from Mitchell Road. Uram stated that the affect on the•
existing neighborhood would be minimal. The landscaping
provided exceeded City Code requirements by over 200 inches.
Uram recommended approval of the project based on the
recommendations outlined in the Staff Report.
Bye asked Carlson if he agreed with the recommendations as
outlined in the Staff Report. Carlson replied yes.
Mr. Weibell, on Sunrise Circle, asked where the water runoff
would go. Uram replied that the runoff from this site would
be collected in a catch basin system and discharged to a
retention pond located on the north end of the project site.
This pond would be constructed as part of the Mitchell Road
project.
Sandstad asked if there would be any way to avoid the need for
the retaining wall. Uram replied that originally a 20-foot
wall was proposed along the entire length of the property line
and currently the plan was changed to require only two 4-foot
retaining walls. Uram added that the walls could not be
eliminated entirely. Carlson added that there would be a lot
of excess soil and that he would like to look at a possible
raise in the grade.
Norman asked if any totlots would be proposed. Carlson
replied that the target market was for residents 55 years old
or older. Carlson added that no interest had been shown by
families with young children. Carlson stated that sidewalk
access would be available to neighborhood parks.
Ruebling arrived at 8:45.
Weibell asked if City sewer would be available. Dram replied
yes. Weibell asked where the connection would be located.
Uram replied that the sanitary sewer connection would be from
Mitchell Road.

RE: Revisions to the Eden Prairie Guide Plan Map
Dear Sirs:
The Eden Prairie Guide Plan Map was adopted by the City Council in
1968, and subsequently reviewed and approved by the Metropolitan
Council. An updated version of this map was approved in 1982 and
is the base of the map currently used today. Since 1982, more
minor Guide Plan changes have been adopted by the City Council and
Metropolitan Council, and are reflected on this map.
Recently City Staff has been in the process of grouping and
identifying minor revisions to the 1982 Guide Plan Map. This
update combines graphic revisions for easier interpretation of land
uses, incorporation of regional changes regarding Highway #212
alignment, and precise reflection of local uses that are currently
in place.
GRAPHIC
The primary change to the map is the use of actual property lines
for graphic representations of land use rather than more conceptual
shaped forms. This will reduce debates on interpretation which
occurred over graphic "cracks" in between land uses on the 1982
map. In addition, legend changes have taken place which include:
listing density limits for the residential land uses, defining all
road classifications in accordance with the Metropolitan Council
Transportation Guide, and labelling the MUSA Line as a Year 2000
Line.
LAND USE. changes 1-6 and 23-27
The Industrial land use previously located between the old Highway
#212 alignment and the railroad tracks has now been replaced by a
Low Density Residential land use. In 1980, the zoning of this
property was changed from Industrial back to Rural. In addition,
since abandonment of the railroad track is imminent and with the
relocation of Highway #212 in place, the Guide Plan Map should
reflect current conditions. The commercial land use, located south
City Eden Prairie
tt A. Kipp
Assistant Planner
Metropolitan Council
April 12, 1990
Page 2
of the old Highway #212 alignment, has now been shifted further
west keeping the same relationship to the new Dell Road alignment.
In addition, all existing public school and church sites have now
been accurately reflected on the Guide Plan Map.
ROADWAY. changes 7-16
More specific revisions that have been made reflect regional and
local changes that are actual current uses or have been adopted by
our City Council. Because the new alignment of Highway #212 as
adopted in "The Official Map" process no longer follows the 1982
Guide Plan Map, relocation of this alignment is necessary. This
change precipitated minor changes to the Dell Road and Scenic
Heights Road alignments as well. Also, a few of the roads within
the community have either been removed from the Guide Plan because
existing development prohibits their construction, or have been
reclassified since they do not meet the classification of the
original Guide Plan.
AHORELAND. changes 17-22
Some of the waterbody classifications in Eden Prairie have now been
changed to reflect current DNR shoreland water classifications.
PUBLIC OPEN SPACE. changes 28-36
The final changes made to the map show the addition of small
neighborhood parks that are currently in existence or reflect the
previously approved City Park and Open Space system. One cemetary
site was slightly modified as part of the surrounding development
approval.
We will be presenting these minor amendments to our Planning
Commission and City Council for approval. We would appreciate any
comments you may have at this time.
Sincerely,
EPGPMAP.SAK:bs

Comprehensive Plan Amendment
Graphic Revisions
Metropolitan Council District 13
Metropolitan Council Referral File No. 15000-5
Dear Mr. Enger:
The Metropolitan Council staff has reviewed the city of Eden Prairie comprehensive plan
amendment received by the Council on May 7, 1990. We have determined that the proposed
amendment has no potential impact upon any of the metropolitan system plans. Therefore, the
city may place the amendment into effect immediately.
Because the proposed amendment appears unlikely to affect policies and plans in other chapt
e
r
s
of the Metropolitan Development Guide, the Council will waive further review and commen
t
o
n
this amendment.
The amendment, explanatory materials supplied and the infortnatioh submission form will be
appended to the city's plan in the Council's files.
This concludes the Council's review.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Natural
ResourcesinA/
DATE: June 1, 1990
SUBJECT: Adult Usage of the High School Baseball Field
Attached to this memo is a letter from Patrick L. Thompson, Manager
and founder of the Eden Prairie Senior Baseball team, as well as
a memo from Laurie Melling, Manager of Recreation Services,
regarding the request for adult use of the high school baseball
field. Also, attached is a summary of the discussion that was held
at the May 14, 1990 scheduled Parks, Recreation and Natural
Resources Commission meeting. Due to the lack of a quorum, the
meeting was not held; however, the three commission members that
were present did discuss this issue with the concerned citizens
that were in attendance.
This item was continued to the June 4th Parks, Recreation and
Natural Resources Commission meeting, and due to the timing of
scheduled ball games it is also included on the June 5th City
Council meeting for a final decision.
After a length discussion with the neighbors, it is apparent that
the major concern is with the number of foul balls that end up on
private property. Neighbors are irritated by the ball players
climbing the fence to retrieve these balls and are extremely
concerned about the danger of these balls hitting a child in the
head. Neighbors also seem to be very concerned about the lack of
privacy in their backyards due to the high amount of usage of the
ballfield. The final concern is the noise that is associated with
the adjacent ballfields. There was also some concern regarding the
number of soccer balls that end up across the street on private
property.
City staff do not believe the answer to these concerns is to reduce
the number of games on these fields. As long as one game is played
on the baseball field, there is potential for a problem with a foul
ball hitting an unsuspected person. City staff believe the first
priority should be to eliminate the foul balls from the baseball
field and the soccer balls that are kicked over the fence beyond
both soccer fields. In order to alleviate these concerns, staff
would recommend extending the height of the fence behind the soccer
goals to 12' high, with a net, for a distance of approximately 30',
and to provide extensive tree planting of a columnar variety of
tree in that same location.
In order to eliminate the foul ball problem, City staff would
recommend the installation of two 50' poles at the edge of the
lower portion of the backstop immediately adjacent to the dugouts,
and extending a cable between these two 50' poles, as well as a
cable between each 50 , pole and the corner of the high portion of
the existing backstop, which is approximately 35' high directly
behind the plate.
A black nylon net could then be attached to this cable extending
from the top of the existing 35' backstop to a height of 50'
directly over the top of the home plate. This would assure the
elimination of any foul balls reaching the private property. The
estimated cost of this solution would probably be between $5,000
and $10,000, but it is a relatively small cost in order to make the
field usable and the neighbors backyards safe.
The negative side of this recommendation is that this would change
the rules of the baseball game on this field in that foul balls
that would ordinarily comedown between home plate and the backstop
would now be out of play, if they had touched the netting. For
this reason, the School District may wish to try other alternatives
to eliminate or reduce the problem prior to arriving at this
solution. Other alternatives would be to extend the height of the
backstop through extended poles and netting and extending the
height of the backstop through fence or netting to 20 or more feet,
down the first base line and third base line of the existing
backstop. This action would probably stop an additional 50-75%
more of the existing foul balls, but would not stop all foul balls.
A compromise that might alleviate the majority of the foul balls
and be acceptable to the baseball players might be the overhead
netting solution approximately half way between home plate and the
existig backstop.
The second priority concern relates to privacy and the visual
intrusion into the backyards of the adjacent neighborhood. This
can be resolved by planting a hedge that would grow to 6-8'
immediately adjacent to the fence and planting a row of columnar
type trees in front of the hedge. The hedge and trees would serve
to screen activities occurring on both sides of the fence and would
help in a small way to reduce some of the noise. Quite frankly,
the noise on adjacent fields is the one intrusion that cannot be
eliminated. The School District is already in the process of
planting trees behind the backstop and the soccer fields.
Obviously, these facilities are on school property and the City can
only recommend design solutions to these problems. The City
donated $50,000 to the School District for assistance in
construction of these facilities anticipating maximum use of these
facilities by City programs when they are not being scheduled for
school use; therefore, the City may wish to offer to assist in the
cost of design solutions to insure that these facilities can
continue to be used without a negative impact on the adjacent
neighborhood.
The original question that initiated this discussion resulted in
a request from the adult baseball team to schedule games on this
facility. The City Council had agreed to restricting scheduled use
of these facilities to youth in 1986 due to the concerns of
adjacent neighborhoods regarding increased traffic, foul language,
use of alcohol, and foul balls from the baseball field. The
neighborhood has had problems with foul balls and increased traffic
from the existing users that are mainly youth teams (the adult
baseball team scheduled four games in 1989 without City approval).
The adult baseball team plays in a league that typically uses the
baseball field in their home communities, and are requesting the
right to use this field. The adjacent neighbors suggest that all
other baseball fields in town be used 7 days a week before any
games are scheduled on this field. The baseball team does not
believe that it makes sense to restrict the best field in town to
the least amount of use, and suggests that they should have at
least some access to this field. They would like to schedule eight
games on that field this year.
City staff would recommend approving the Baseball Team request and
authorizing staff to meet with School District representatives to
develop a satisfactory design solution to eliminating the majority
of the foul balls from the baseball field.

Adult Usage of the High School. Baseball Field
On April 19 I attended a meeting at the high school, regarding
the scheduling of the new high school baseball field. The
following people were in .attendance: Steve Schultz; Director of
Student Activities, Ray Mitchell; Director of School Facilities
and Don Hedlund; North Hillcrest Court Representative. Mr.
Hedlund presented a copy of City Council Minutes dated April 15,
1986 in which the following motion was made:
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, (1) to approve the
request to contribute $50,000 from cash park fees for the
proposed development of the athletic fields; (2) that, in regard
to the city activities (not the school activities) on the fields.
the Council direct staff to limit all adult usage to the southern
fields and to limit all use to the southern fields to the maximum
extent possible; and (3) request staff to report back in one year
with the status of usage and problems with the fields. Roll call
vote "aye". Pidcock voted "no". Motion carried.
The North Hillcrest Court neighborhood would like to see adult
usage on the new baseball field restricted for the following
reasons/concerns:
1) increased number of foul balls hit into the neighboring yards
2) consumption of alcohol in a prohibited area
3) profanity, noise and traffic problems
Patrick Thompson, Manager and Founder of the Eden Prairie Senior
Baseball Team is seeking use of an adequate regulation baseball
field, and would like to be able to schedule their home games an
the new baseball field whenever available.
During the summer, the City reserves and schedules all approved
school district fields throughout the community, which includes
the new high school baseball field. The Eden Prairie School
District does approve of adult usage on the new baseball field,
and would support the removal of the restriction on adult usage.

Eden Prairie, MN 55346
Dear Ms. Belling:
The Eden Prairie Senior Men's Baseball Team, officially
affiliated with the Minnesota Senior Men's Baseball Association,
is beginning its fifth season of sanctioned play.
We are seeking use of an adequate regulation baseball field,
as provided other teams in our Association for players aged
35 and over. Bloomington, for example, provides fields and dates
for three senior teams. Edina was given home dates at Braemar
Park. Minnetonka gladly makes its baseball complex available to
senior teams. We play games in Greater Minnesota and those teams
are treated the equal of their State Amateur teams.
In our previous four seasons, we have played our home games as
fields became available so that we would not conflict with youth
baseball. The first game in our history, as a matter of fact, was
scheduled with permission from the city at the Community Center
field and then canceled without notice because someone forgot the
helicopter landing area in right field during Schooner Days.
Again this season, we waited until the youth teams scheduled
their practices and games to apply for use of Eden Prairie fields.
We have represented the City well in our first four seasons.
Each year, we have advanced to the State tournament. In 1987, we
won the state championship.
Fourteen of our players and their families reside in Eden
Prairie. For many years, many of us have been active in Eden
Prairie civic, school and youth athletic activities -- as
participants, players, coaches, board members and as taxpayers.

Unapproved Minutes -PRNRC - May 21, 1990
Baseball Team - Laurie Hellingsumnarized the background
information regarding the 1986 City Council commitment
to restrict the use of the facilities on the school
property. The majority of the reasons for the
neighborhood requesting those restrictions was due to
noise and concern about profanity and alcohol abuse
immediately adjacent to their homes. The school
district has no restrictions on the use of those fields
and the City schedules those fields during the summer
as the City contributed $50,000 toward the construction
of those four soccer fields and the baseball field
located at the northeast corner of the school site north
of Round Lake Park.
Roger Swigart, 13184 Cardinal Creek Road, represented
the baseball team and indicated that he has played with
the team since its inception four years ago. He
indicated that the high school team has players that
are bigger and quicker than most of the players on the
senior men's team, which requires players to be 35 years
or older and suggested that the foul ball problem would
not be as significant with the senior team as it is with
the younger age group users. He also indicated that the
senior men's team is willing to use the baseball field
under any conditions the City suggests and reminded the
commission that other City teams such as the American
Legion and the Babe Ruth teams use this facility, and
to not allow the senior men's team to use it would be
discriminating against them on the basis of age.
Don Hedlund, 16441 North Hillcrest Court, indicated that
he went through the planning process at the School
District, the Planning Commission, the Parks, Recreation
and Natural Resources Commission, and the City Council
when these fields were planned in 1986 and indicated his
concern based on the proximity of the ballfield. He
suggested at that time that the ballfield was too close
to the neighborhood property and was concerned about
foul balls, noise, and increased traffic to the
neighborhood. The City committed at that time to
restrict use to youth teams and requests the City
maintain that policy.
Mr. Hedlund also indicated there was a senior soccer
league playing on the soccer fields last fall and there
were many problems with balls going over the fence and
players climbing over the fence to retrieve their balls.
He also indicated that the senior baseball team caused
more foul balls last than other players.

Unapproved Minutes -PRNRC - May 21, 1990
Ed Steinbrook, 16670 North Hillcrest Court, lives
directly behind the ballfield. He indicated there are
too many people "back there using the field every
night". Last year there was lots of trash behind the
backstop until toward the end of the year when trash
cans were provided. He sees no reason why the neighbor-
hood should have to put up with people using that
facility every night of the week and indicated that it
gets "pretty sickening" after a while with all of the
noise and increased traffic.
Mr. Steinbrook indicated that last Sunday between 1 and
4 p.m. there was a baseball game going on and a baseball
landed right next to the slide, within 2' of his two
year old child. He also is upset with people constantly • jumping the fence to retrieve their balls and does not
like arguing with people that are walking through his
flower beds and demanding their ball back.
John Pollack, 16460 No. Hillcrest Court, indicated that
when they purchased their home, they knew they were
purchasing next to school property and expected it to
have school use, not City use of the property. There
has been several confrontations between ball players and
neighbors when ballplayers are retrieving either soccer
balls or baseballs. He opposes City use of those
facilities.
John Pollack III also residing at 16460 North Hillcrest
Court referred to a problem of two weeks ago with a
golfer hitting golf balls from the soccer fields into
private property. In his opinion, the non regulated use
of these soccer fields and baseball field are just as
bad as the regulated use and doesn't believe the City
is able to control the use of these facilities for non
scheduled pickup games.
Laurie Helling indicated that the baseball field is
completely fenced and people have to get a key from the
City or the school to play on that facility. This
facility did not have that type of control last year,
but all games or practices on the baseball field are
controlled by either the City or the School District,
unless people are climbing the fence to play ball.
David Kuechenmeister asked if there were any reasonable
modifications that can be made to the facility to
eliminate the problem with foul balls.

i3Lt
Unapproved Minutes -PRNRC -May 21, 1990
Steve Schultz stated that the school is trying to
squeeze the maximum amount of facilities on their
property, as well as trying to be a good neighbor. He
indicated that the backstop at the baseball field is
one of the highest around and although the school
entertained the idea of a netting 60' in the air, the
neighbors were not supportive of that idea. He
indicated that the School District purposely did not
put a gate in the fence so that people would not be
encouraged to go into the neighborhood to retrieve
balls. The City faces the continued increased number
of users trying to use a limited number of facilities
and suggested that this problem will only increase
rather than decrease until additional facilities are
provided.
Roger Swigartofthe senior baseball team indicated that
the senior team only used the baseball field 3 or 4
times in 1989 and has not used the field this year;
therefore, it is doubtful that they have caused the
problems referred to by the neighborhood. He feels that
it is inappropriate to discriminate against a group of
users who are not responsible for the problems the
neighborhood is complaining about. He also indicated
that the baseball team has tentatively only scheduled
8 games in 1990 on that field and does not feel that 8
additional games is going to make a major difference
with the neighborhood. He also stated that the senior
men's team would not have confrontations with neighbors,
nor would they climb the fence and trespass on private
property to retrieve any foul balls that might occur
during the game.
Hedlund indicated that soccer field #4 may be "out of
use" for 1990, but is still used three, four, or five
times per week by unscheduled teams and pickup games.
He also referred to the commitment by the School
District to plant trees along the property line, and
there are no trees planted as yet. (This commitment
was made about a month ago.)
Patty Norby, 16420 Hillcrest Court, lives across from
the soccer fields, she indicated that on Sunday
evenings, when they would like to use their backyard,
there are as many as dozen soccer balls that come over
the fence into their lawn and 3 or 4 cars parking in
front of their home, often blocking their driveway.
People keep jumping the fence and intruding in their
backyard when they are trying to have private family
functions.

Unapproved Minutes -PRNRC - May 21, 1990
Melling suggested restricting to the use of the baseball
field to games and eliminating it to be scheduled for
practices as a way to have a more controlled use of the
facility.
Baker stated that the real problem is that the fields
were planned without sufficient buffer, rather than the
issue of adult use of the field. It appears as though
there is a problem whether it is adult use of youth use,
and the request of the neighbors is to restrict or limit
the number of users than specifically who is using the
fields. This is a problem in that the irrigated fields
are some of the nicest facilities in the community and
it is difficult to say that the nicest facilities in the
community should have the least amount of use.
One of the neighbors then stated that the City use of
school property is the problem and there is just too
much use of that property. They would like to see it
limited to school use only.
Another neighbor, Jerry Baisky, 16400 Hillcrest Court
North, questioned why the school has money to add to
the baseball field and make improvements to the base-
ball field, but does not have sufficient money to
maintain the weeds and dandelions in the back of the
slope.
John Pollack III indicated that the fields are not
"suitable" for use for City programs without a decent
buffer zone. These facilities were designed without a
buffer zone and, therefore, should be restricted to
school use.
Baker indicated that there was no easy solution to this
problem, and indicated that this item would be brought
before the full commission on Monday, June 4th prior to
Council review of the item on June 5th.
Baker then thanked residents for attending the meeting
and sharing their concerns and indicated the commission
members would take this issue under advisement over the
next two week period.

Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Landfill Advisory Committee
SUBJECT:
Request for Funds
DATE:
May 31, 1990
The Landfill Advisory Committee has met several times since its first meeting in
late March. In identifying the professional, strategic effort necessary to
convey the City's position effectively, it has become apparent that the Comittee
does not have the resources among its members to accomplish its goal.
Consequently, proposals from several consultants have been received for
assistance in developing and executing this project.
At this point, the Committee believes there are two major areas for activity:
public information, and communicating with decisionmakers and influential
leaders. The Committee recommended that a video be produced which would provide
a different perspective of the site and issues than what might be related by the
landfill owner inside the facility. The Council gave its approval at the joint
meeting with the Committee on May 14. The Committee also recommends that Mona,
Meyer & McGrath be retained to provide services and overall coordination of the
public information activities. In terms of communication with decisionmakers,
the Committee recommends The November Group/Cerkvenik & Forceia and Messerli &
Kramer be retained for this effort. The proposals from each of these firms are
attached.
Taking advantage of these resources requires City funds. At this point the
Committee can identify probable expenses through the end of August. Where
appropriate, the estimates are based on the monthly cap for fees:
Video (Corporate Video) $15,000
Public Information (Mona, Meyer & McGrath) 14,000
Lobbying
The November Group/Cerkvenik & Forceia 11,000
Messerli & Kramer 2,000
Advertising 17,000
Printing 3,000 ,
Expenses/Contingency _L000
UMW
The Committee requests and recommends that the Council enter into agreements for
services from these firms and authorize expenditures as proposed above. The
Committee will inform the Council as quickly as possible whether changes to
these plans appear warranted.

PROPOSAL TO PROVIDE INTERIM LOBBYING
FOR
THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE
MAY 15, 1990
IN 6
LEGISLATIVE AND LOBBYING CONSULTING AGREEMENT
The law firm of Messerli s Kramer (the Firm) will provide
professional lobbying and consulting services to the City of Eden
Prairie (the City) for the period June 1, 1990, through December
31, 1990.
These services will include, but not be limited to, working with
city officials, local legislators and other consultants to
develop a lobbying strategy for the 1991 session. They will also
include contacting key legislators, legislative staff and members
of the Administration to inform them of the City's opposition to
the expansion of the Flying Cloud Landfill.
Fees for professional services shall be billed at the following
hourly rates: Partners $125 per hour; associate attorneys $90
per hour. Although the entire resources of the Firm are
available to the City, it is expected that Robert G. Renner, Jr.,
and Ross E. Kramer will be the lead attorneys. In addition to
the fees for actual time billed, the City agrees to pay for all
out-of-pocket expenses not to exceed $300 for the seven-month
period without prior approval.
Fees in professional services will not exceed $5,000 during the
seven-month period without the approval of the City Council. It
is estimated that the total hours will average approximately five
per month. The Firm agrees to provide the City with a monthly
itemized invoice for services rendered during the previous month.
The Firm, as a matter of policy, is attaching a conflicts of
interest policy which outlines the procedures that will be used
should a conflict of interest arise. To the best of our
knowledge no conflict with any present client exists. All of the
employees of the Firm will abide by the Code of Ethical Conduct
as promulgated by the Minnesota Supreme Court.
The Firm is responsible for filing with the Minnesota Ethical
Practices Board as a registered lobbyist for the City.
Either the Firm or the City may, with 30 days written notice,
terminate this agreement.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Messerli & Kramer is acutely aware that conflicts between
clients can be devastating to their legislative programs. We
Assume the affirmative obligation to examine the issues
:presented by any potential client for conflict with existing
client legislative initiatives. To that end, we have
developed a Conflict of Interest Policy which we include as
part of all client representation agreements. It is our
belief that most conflicts can be avoided through a commitment
7tolearly .identification of issues and by notification of
clients.
MESSERLI & KRAMER
-LEGISLATIVE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST POLICY
Messerli & Kramer has a positive obligation to detect promptly
and report immediately any potential conflict between the
legislative objectives of its clients. All legislative
clients also have an affirmative responsibility to detect and
report potential conflicts and notify Messerli & Kramer
regarding them. A conflict of interest exists whenever any
legislative client or the Firm determines there is a conflict.
We make every, attempt to identify any potential conflicts of
interest with existing clients prior to Messerli & Kramer's
employment by a new legislative client. This process includes
a full discussion within our Legislative Department and
disclosure of the potential conflict issues with existing
legislative clients who may be affected. If any significant
conflict becomes apparent that cannot be resolved at this
stage, the Firm will decline the new representation absent
client consent.
If a conflict of interest arises between two or more existing
legislative clients, the following guidelines will apply:
(a) An attempt will be made to resolve or compromise the
conflict between the clients. A compromise must be with the
consent of all affected clients.
(b) If a client elects to withdraw the conflicting issue
from its legislative program, the conflict of interest will be
considered resolved.
(c) If the conflict is not removed by client withdrawal
of the issue or compromise of the conflicting points of view,
Messerli & Kramer must withdraw from representation of all
clients on that particular legislative issue. Messerli &
Kramer will contact appropriate parties to explain the
conflict and the Firm's withdrawal from the issue.
prsP4d4 4 Tbe client.vwiththe Firm's assistance, will be
responsible for making -their -own arrangements for legislative
representation -on that issue.
Messerli & Kramer will renegotiate any retainer or contract
agreement with an-affected client to reflect the withdrawal.
If a pattern of conflicts develops between legislative
clients, the Firm will evaluate the situation with the
affected clients. The Firm will cease representation as
necessary to eliminate any continuing conflict of interest and
will explain the withdrawal to all affected parties.

Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
Mayor and City Council
Robert'A. Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and
Natural Resources
illa." Barbara Penning Cross, Landscape Architect -
May 18, 1990
SUBJECT: Miller Park Redesign
At the April 3, 1990 Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources
Commission meeting, residents of the Weston Bay area voiced their
concerns about living next to the proposed Miller Park. One of the
main concerns the residents stated at the meeting was the placement
of the park road. They also wrote a letter concerning the 30 mile
per hour speed limit set for the street. Staff would like to point
out that according to City statutes, this is the minimum speed at
which a street can be posted. It would be similar to any other
residential road within the City including Weston Bay Road, where
the speed limit is 30 miles per hour.
Staff has studied Miller Park and has done numerous layouts to try
to incorporate the needs of the park with the desires of the
residents. I have attached a plan showing the revised layout.
Many of the neighborhood and commission concerns have been
addressed.
The number of ballfields within the park has remained the same.
Parking stalls within the ballfield complex have increased from 310
spaces on the old plan, to 350 spaces on the revised plan. Other
facilities, such as the concession building, the totlot, trails and
the underpass have all been maintained. A batting cage has been
added and is located in the revised plan.
The road system has been amended and seems to accommodate both the
neighborhood and park needs. The only section of roadway that has
not been relocated is a section along the park boundary from Timber
Lakes Drive east to County Road 4. This portion of road is
required by City Code to provide a second access into the neighbor-
hood. Rotlund Homes will be constructing that portion of roadway
within the next several months. I have shown that road T'ing into
the park road to reduce the traffic load through the neighborhood.
The new entry road curves in off County Road 4 and runs along the
railroad track until it curves in surrounding the Babe Ruth field.
The road was designed with circuitous curves to make it aesthet-
ically interesting and also to slow traffic down. Staff carefully
examined bisecting the baseball complex. The proposed layout
isolates the Babe Ruth field where it can function as Eden
Prairie's championship field. All parking needs for this field
have been met south of the road, which eliminates pedestrian
movement back and forth across the road. The small combination
fields and the Little League fields have also been made into a
small complex. Parking for 300 cars should be more than adequate.
Staff maintained a safe spacing between fields at least 100' away
from parking and populated areas where foul balls might land.
The trail system works well allowing excellent circulation within
the baseball complex and makes logical connections to the rest of
the park.
I have done a preliminary grading plan to make sure the revised
plan works with the existing land forms. The grading plan works
well with good drainage on all fields. Berming is possible in most
areas along the north property line to help with screening. Space
is available for heavy plantings between the ballfields and the
property line. When, and if, the City has another bond referendum,
to develop Miller Park, plant materials for that screening will be
included in the cost.
From a planning and design standpoint, the revised plan works as
well, or better, than the original plan. The entire parks,
recreation and natural resources staff have reviewed the revised
plan and are confident that the plan will work.
The location of the temporary boat launch to be installed this
summer will not follow the existing road due to the cost of the
lengthy road. It is now proposed to come down off Timber Lake
Drive and the new road out to County Road 4, and swing south in the
direction of the concession building before heading west towards
the lake. Because this road has been shifted south, the temporary
road will be gravel and will be treated for dust by the Public
Works Department when necessary.

Anderson suggested that a program such as "adopt a
park" or "adopt a trail" would be a good idea and also
that the City needs a plan in order to plant more trees.
Baker said he would like to continue the clean-up effort
during the summer and work on reforestation in Eden
Prairie.
Anderson said that since there is no additional money
in the parks and recreation budget, the ideas for clean-
up and reforestation will have to be creative. He
added that the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources
Commission should look into the possibilities and advise
the City Council. Anderson also suggested that it
may be necessary to hire a part-time person to be in
charge of these projects.
Kuechenmeister said there was also a discussion at
a recent meeting regarding clean-up of construction
materials.
Lambert said this is difficult to enforce, as one
developer may use a number of different builders and
it is hard to prove whose debris it is.
Baker said he feels there should be some type of
recognition to the Clean-Up Day volunteers. Anderson
said that this has already been suggested to the City
Council.
Lambert said that City staff does not have the time
to coordinate a major clean-up project. Anderson said
he realizes that outside help may have to be hired
and he has requested additional money in the budget
for this purpose.
Kuechenmeister suggested some incentives for builders
so the problem of construction debris would be lessened.
Baker suggested that this item be discussed in more
detail at the next commission meeting.

Lambert said that City staff received a letter from
Cheryl and William Cotter, representing residents of
Weston Bay, regarding a concern they have with the
proposal to construct an access road into Miller Park
for picknicking and boat access on Mitchell Lake.
Cheryl Cotter of 16837 Weston Bay Road said that the
residents understand that the road has to be constructed
•this year in order to receive funding, but they have
a concern with access to the park being Timber Lake
Drive.
Lambert stated that he would answer the questions that
were raised in the letter and then take individual
questions from residents. Be showed the location of
Weston Bay and said that the developer requested that
the road be moved so it would be located partially
on his property and partially on City property.
The following are questions from the residents and
staff answers:
1. Will Timber Lakes Drive be a permanent access to
Miller Park?
Timber Lakes Drive will be one of several permanent
accesses to the park, but will not be the major
access.
2. Is the County Road 4 access planned for the same
opening time as the Timber Lakes Drive access?
The Timber Lakes Drive access should be completed
early this summer and the park access will not
be opened until late summer.
3. Where will the park be in relationship to the
townhomes and Weston Bay Road homes?
The park road will be approximately 9 feet south
of the park property line.

Cotter added that Weston Bay Road is already a blind _
corner and the residents would like to see the road
moved away from the homes.
Kuechenmeister asked if the railroad has been abandoned.
Lambert said that it is expected to be abandoned at
any time, but is proposed for a light rail system.
He added that it would be possible to redesign the
park, but it is unknown whether a new design would
have the same number of ballfields. The alternative
would be to have ballfields located closer to the homes.
John Nabla of 16921 Weston Bay Road said he feels the
road and parking lot will lessen the value of the homes
in this area. He has a problem with the road and parking
lot backing up to his property, but would not have
a problem with the ballfields.
Dave Chinek of 16977 Weston Bay Road said he feels
the present plan does not fit the needs of the homeowners.
Richard asked if the road was not located behind the
homes and was used for ballfields instead, would there
be more space for plantings and screening. Lambert
said that this type of plan was not explored.
Trish Albrect of 16761 Weston Bay Road feels their
home would be one.of the most affected, as there are
no fences or berming behind the house. The present
plan would put a major road about 15 feet from their
deck. She asked if there is a setback requirement
for the back of the homes, as well as the front. Lambert
said the builder apparently received a variance at
the time the lots were sold.
Tom Oster of 16785 Weston Bay Road said it seems that
the bailfields are approximately the same size as the
parking lots. He feels changing the location of the
parking lots would allow for better access. Lambert
said that a plan such as this has not been done, but
the idea was to have the ballfields located so the
kids would not be running across the road between fields.
Oster asked where the future Hwy. 212 would be located.
Lambert said that it would be south of this development
with an overpass providing access from the south.

Jim Schingler of 16949 Weston Bay Road stated that
it seems that the residents in attendance agree that
ballfields are preferred over parking lots and the
City is willing to do another study. He is concerned
with the public access to the lake since he feels the
lake is "dead" at this point.
Lambert said that the lake is at the 868 contour which
is an average over the last 20 years. It will have
to be raised 3 feet by rainfall to meet the outlet.
The DNR has committed to manage the lake by requiring
City aeration and stocking the lake, but this will
not be done until there is public access. Staff feels
that this will be an improvement to the lake.
Schingler asked if there is a requirement for the lake
to be motorized. Lambert said that this was decided
two years ayo by residents on the lake who wanted 10
hp motors allowed.
Schingler asked if the lake can be filled by means
other than rainfall. Lambert said no.
Lisa Flamm of 16896 Weston Bay Road asked if the DNR
will also take care of weed control. Lambert said
no.
Flamm asked if it is possible to have the parking lots
located further to the south. Lambert said that the
City will do a good job of screening and a nursery
to the north is also planned for the future which should
also help with screening.
Lee Grasen of 16756 Weston Bay Road asked how large
is the parking lot north of the ballfields. He is
concerned with cars parking on the street. Lambert
said the parking lot will accommodate50 cars, but during
tournaments there may be some parking along the street.
May Oster of 16785 Weston Bay Road said they have already.
had problems with people using a dirt road along the
railroad tracks to get to the lake and the police have
not been enforcing it. Lambert agreed that people
are getting to the lake illegally along the railroad
tracks, but said that it is difficult to change once
people know about it.

Schingler asked if there would be a problem to revise
the park plan. Lambert said no, but there are no
guarantees that a new plan will be approved by the
Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
or the City Council.
Nabla asked who will be playing on the ballfields.
Lambert said they will be set up for youth softball
and baseball.
Nabla asked if an EIS was done. Lambert said it is
not necessary to do an EIS for lake access.
MOTION: Breitenstein moved to recommend that a study
be done to determine the feasibility of moving the
ballfields and access road in Miller Park without losing
any ballfields. Richard seconded the motion.
On call for discussion, Vanderploeg asked if there
is a possibility that the commission could come out
and look at the property. Cotter said they could come
at anytime.
Kuechenmeister said he feels that City staff has gone
to a great deal of time and effort developing a plan
for Miller Park, but he would like to look at an
alternative routing into the park without losing any
playing facilities.
Joyer said that the commission went out to look at
this property before the lots were laid and had some
of the same concerns that the residents have. The
developer was made aware of tnem at that time. . She
also indicated that a new plan with fewer ballfields
was not acceptable.
The motion passed 5-0.
Lambert said that the study will be completed and the
findings brought back to the commission at their next
meeting on May 21.

Melling suggested restricting to the use of the baseball
field to games and eliminating it to be scheduled for
practices as a way to have a more controlled use of the
facility.
Baker stated that the real problem is that the fields
were planned without sufficient buffer, rather than the
issue of adult use of the field. It appears as though
there is a problem whether it is adult use of youth use,
and the request of the neighbors is to restrict or limit
the number of users than specifically who is using the
fields. This is a problem in that the irrigated fields
are some of the nicest facilities in the community and
it is difficult to say that the nicest facilities in the
community should have the least amount of use.
One of the neighbors then stated that the City use of
school property is the problem and there is just too
much use of that property. They would like to see it
limited to school use only.
Another neighbor, Jerry Baisky, 16400 Hillcrest Court
North, questioned why the school has money to add to
the baseball field and make improvements to the base-
ball field, but does not have sufficient money to
maintain the weeds and dandelions in the back of the
slope.
John Pollack III indicated that the fields are not
"suitable" for use for City programs without a decent
buffer zone. These facilities were designed without a
buffer zone and, therefore, should be restricted to
school use.
Baker indicated that there was no easy solution to this
problem, and indicated that this item would be brought
before the full commission on Monday, June 4th prior to
Council review of the item on June 5th.
Baker then thanked residents for attending the meeting
and sharing their concerns and indicated the commission
members would take this issue under advisement over the
next two week period.

changes to the Miller Park Plan that has, hopefully,
alleviated the concerns of the residents.
A resident of the Townhome Association requested
information regarding private road access to the new
connection from Timber Lakes Drive to County Road 4,
and the size of the berms that would be screening the
ballfields from the road and neighborhood. Cross
indicated that the berms would be from 4 to 6 feet high
with evergreens planted on top of the berms.
Several of the residents from the Weston Bay area
indicated their support of the revised plan and
indicated they thought the plan was much better and
alleviated their concern.
Cross indicated that the gravel access road to be
constructed in 1990 would extend from the end of Timber
Lakes Drive south approximately 200', then westerly
toward to planned parking lot and boat launch area. The
boat launch parking lot has been reduced from 20 cars
with trailers to 15 cars with trailers, and an
additional 20 car parking lot to accommodate picnicking
would be constructed just east of the boat launch
parking lot.
Baker thanked the residents from the Weston Bay area
for becoming involved in the process, and indicated that
he believed the park plan was a much improved plan due
their input. Vanderploeg and Kuechenmeister concurred
with the improved park plan.
Residents from the Weston Bay area thanked Vanderploeg
and Kuechenmeister for taking the time to come out to
the site and visit with residents regarding their
concerns and they all believed the "process works" and
the park plan is better for everyone concerned.
Lambert indicated that the staff does support the
revised plan and would be recommending revisions to
Miller Park Master Plan to the Commission at the June
4th meeting.
