Bentley said the Public Safety Department is to be commended on its fine job
on the Operations Manual.
City Council Minutes -3- June 18, 1985
Gould Kennel License - Dale Evans, 17017 West 62nd Street, said his property
is adjacent to the Gould property. He noted that Gould has had a private
kennel license and that as many as 40 dogs have been observed there.
Redpath stated that when the first kennel license was granted to Gould there
was very little, if any, development in this portion of the City.
Evans said this has not become a business for Gould; dogs are bred and sold.
He said the license now states that Gould can have 18 dogs, 12 of which can
be adult dogs. City Manager Jullie said Gould now has 21 adult dogs and 3
pups.
Peterson said he felt the issue was a question as to the number of dogs and
the City's responsibility.
City Attorney Pauly referred to the provisions of the City Code which govern
this matter.
Bentley suggested this matter be continued to July 2nd to allow Staff time to
review this.
Pidcock asked the size of Gould's property. Evans said it was about 3/4 - 1
acre in size.
Redpath said the City could consider giving Gould a six.month license which
would allow him time to move his operation.
Bentley said he felt the question was whether this was a private or a
commercial operation.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Pidcock, to continue action on this
item to the July 2, 1985, meeting of the City Council. Motion carried
unanimously.
III. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. WOODLAKE SANITARY SERVICES, INC. Request for Planned Unit Development
Concept Amendment for approximately 313 acres; rezoning of approximately
14.44 acres in the Rural District to a district created specifically to
allow the establishment of a temporary landfill or rezoning to a district
presently identified in the Zoning Code by amending the permitted use
section of such district to allow the operation of a temporary landfill;
Development Stage Planned Unit Development approval for approximately
313 acres; and authorize an expansion of area to be used for sanitary
landfill purposes from approximately 107.1 acres to approximately 148.9
acres. Location: southeast of Flying Cloud Drive-In Theater. (Ordinance
No. 4-85)
Mayor Peterson noted there are two requests before the City, one of
which would be presented this evening; the other to be presented to
the Council at its meeting on July 2, 1985. Peterson said he had met
with some of the neighbors; they may choose to wait unitl the July 2nd
meeting to voice their comments.
City Council Minutes -4- June 18, 1985
City Attorney Pauly indicated Rick Rosow of his office had been in contactwith Dick Nowlin, attorney for the proponent, and they had come to the
decision that a final decision on this matter could be extended to the
July 16, 1985, meeting of the City Council.
Peterson asked if this meant the proponent would not make a full presen-
tation this evening. Nowlin said that was correct.
Redpath said he would like to see the July 2, 1985, meeting used exclusively
for the BFI Hearing with other Hearings and business scheduled for another
time; or, if that is not possible, then to schedule a special meeting at
which time the BFI matter could be considered. It was noted that Public
Hearings had been scheduled for July 2nd already.
City Manager Jullie stated notice of this Public Hearing had been published
and notices were sent to property owners within the project vicinity.
Dick Nowlin, attorney for the proponent, addressed the proposal. Nowlin
indicated he would respond, in part, to the Staff Report to the Planning
Commission dated May 23, 1985. He noted he would not address the covered-
cap leachate liner and collection system or the ground water quality
at this time; either written material or a direct presentation from the
proponent's consultants would be provided at a later date. Nowlin said
the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) was presently reviewing
and commenting on a concept plan dealing with the liner and collection
system and the covered cap. Nowlin confirmed the fact that no grading
plan had been prepared as yet which was compounded by the MPCA's concern
over the cap and the timing for the submission of plans for the final ele-
vations of the landfill. He also indicated that a final plan would not
be available until about three months after the MPCA has issued the permit
because the MPCA's cap will impact the final grading plan. Nowlin stated
there will be a need for the cap; the proponent will be putting materials
on top of the cap to achieve the proposed end use, if the final end use is
approved. Nowlin said the proponent would appreciate consideration of the
permit which provides for the Council's review and approval of the final end
use plan after the Council has acted on the main land use applications.
He stated that, should this not be in conformance with City requirements,
they would be agreeable to a condition which would make continued operation
conditioned on completion of appropriate and approvable final land use plans
for the facility.
Nowlin also said that two additional issues which would not be addressed
this evening would be the compensation issue and traffic. He stated they
are still working on property values both in terms of trying to assess the
potential impact as well as the issue of protection. Nowlin said they are
working on the preparation of a supplemental traffic report to the EIS.
Nowlin stated that this past week they had received the Hennepin County
Draft Permit for license which calls for the development of a landfill
liner; that was also recommended by the Metropolitan Council. He said
the proponent is supportive of that as was stated in their application.
Nowlin noted the Metropolitan Council's comments had been forwarded to
the MPCA. Included among the Metropolitan Council's determiniations
were limitations of the life of the landfill for ten years-; a requirement
that horizontal expansion area only be used with the vertical expansion area
not to be used for processed waste after March 1986. Nowlin said the
MPCA postponed its tentative schedule for acting on the permit until
City Council Minutes -5- June 18, 1985 1
its July meeting. Nowlin noted that Hennepin County action was antici-
pated sometime in mid-July.
Nowlin reviewed the history of the application process; he noted that
in February of this year the application was revised to request a zoning
amendment as well as a PUD amendment. Nowlin stated the Staff Report of
May 23rd concluded that the entire horizontal and vertical landfill areas
must be included in the zoning amendment. He stated that they maintain
that,from a technical and legal standpoint,the use is, in fact, a non-
confoming use and that the amendments are not absolutely necessary since
the request is simply to keep the use in operation. He said when the
process was begun in 1982 the intentions were to expand the operation
of the landfill because they were running out of capacity and the need
for more space was demonstrated; the intention was not necessarily to
develop a golf course for the City of Eden Prairie. Nowlin said
there had been a significant change since 1982 in that the decision
had been made to shift from one type of solid waste disposal to another
that being from a system which relied heavily on landfills to a system
which relies on resource recovery and waste reduction. Nowlin noted
material in the Staff Report as well as in the Staff's presentation to
the Metropolitan Council which questionned the need for the landfill
and which argued that expanded capacity was inconsistent with the Met-
ropolitan Council's Solid Waste Policy. Nowlin stated they were requesting
5,644 acres feet of additional capacity; the metropolitan area needs about
8,700 acre feet between now and the year 2000 of which Hennepin County
will need 3,400 acre feet. Nowlin said they were asking for more than
was needed; the Metropolitan Council had considered that argument and
had reviewed it. Nowlin said their analysis of disposal statistics
indicate that 1,400,000 cubic yards of waste was disposed of last year
or approximately 500 acre feet; they expect an increase of about 10% per
year over the next 5 years. Nowlin explained that Hennepin County intends
to be on line with a resource recovery and waste reduction facility by
1990. He said that an additional landfill or two will be needed in Hennepin
County in the next decade. Nowlin noted that the Flying Cloud Landfill is
the only landfill in southern Hennepin County and cited which landfills
are at or near capacity. Nowlin stated the Flying Cloud Landfill now
consumes about 23% of all the waste disposed of in the metropolitan area;
it is the second largest landfill in the metropolitan area.
Bentley questioned the end use plan. Nowlin said that an end use cannot
be considered in terms of land use; he said they do not want to say what
the grade will be unless they know what the end use will be. Nowlin
stated the MPCA has said it would like to see a 6% grade on the cap;
they want to preserve the integrity of the cap. Bentley said he felt
the end use question should be consider separately from the rezoning;
the end use must be considered no matter what is done. Nowlin indicated
he felt the difference between a cap and the end use should be discussed
with the MPCA.
i
f
City Council Minutes -6- June 18, 1985
Redpath asked how long the landfill would be used as a disposal site
for ash residue. Nowlin said that was dependent upon a lot of things
such as whether or not Hennepin County is able to have two facilities.
He said the volume would be reduced by 50% using this method. Nowlin
stated the start up of the plant might be delayed and reconsideration
would have to be given as to what would happen during that one or two
year period. Redpath asked for clarification as to what was meant by
the "kettle." Nowlin said he used that term in reference to the 105
acres which is under use now -- the kettle plus whatever has been
excavated at the sides.
Nowlin said the Staff Report talks about the potential impact on the
airport. He said he had spoken with representatives of the Metropolitan
Airports Commission and their position remains that of "no opposition"
to the expansion. He said there have been isolated situations where
there have been bird strikes but those have occurred at migration times.
Redpath said he has heard of incidents of bird strikes which are not
recorded because the FAA only records incidents which result in a
crash. Nowlin said the EIS points out that the incidents only occur
twice a year. Nowlin said he was not aware of what the FAA records.
Pidcock asked what is done at the present time to prevent control of
garbage as the result of wind. Nowlin said the lowest part of the
landfill that is available is filled in first; if the wind is very
strong, the landfill is shut down. Nowlin stated that snow fencing
and other perimeter fencing is used and soil material is used to cover
the waste to a depth of 6 inches each day. Nowlin addressed the problems
which occurred on May 4th which was a day of unanticipated heavy use and
the Landfill was not staffed appropriately.
Pidcock asked about the security at the landfill. Nowlin said there
is internal security; an attendant is on duty when the landfill is open.
Pidcock said she was able to drive into the landfill with no problem
in a regular car. Nowlin said most of the activity at the landfill is
via truck traffic; car traffic is mainly limited to those who are touring
the landfill.
Fred Hoisington addressed his memorandum dated June 14, 1985, in which
two questions which had been raised by City Staff were responded to --
1) is the expansion of the Flying Cloud Landfill compatible with the
surrounding land uses? and 2) is a limited and temporary expansion of
the Flying Cloud Landfill compatible with the City's Guide Plan? (A
copy of that memorandum is attached to these Minutes.) Hoisington
stated the intention is to include the installation of a leachate liner
collection system, an active and passive methane controls system,
internal and final cover material requirements, phased development, noise
reduction measures and screening of the 15' high berm which will all
I
City Council Minutes -7- June 18, 1985
tend to reduce the impact on the surrounding area and provide additional
features to mitigate problems which tend to occur with landfills.
Redpath asked if the proponent was willing to stay with the "state of the
art" should that change over the next ten to fifteen years. Hoisington
said he has never seen a landfill designed in the way this has been de-
signed. Nowlin said BFI and Wooddale Sanitary Service do not want to
operate a liability; it is in their interest to correct any problems.
Redpath noted that new landfills are governed by criteria which is different
from the criteria governing the expansion of existing landfills. Bentley
said the EIS states that an expansion is not under the same rules as a
new landfill would be. Nowlin said they will bring in their experts to
discuss that issue; he indicated he was aware of the siting criteria being
different.
Director of Planning Enger reviewed the Staff Report which was dated May 23,
1985. (A copy of the Staff Report is attached to these Minutes.)
Rick Rosow, City Attorney's Office, addressed the Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS.) Rosow said they had informed the proponent that it was
improper to request rezoning on just the 14 acres because the entire piece of
property except for the 90 acre kettle (which would be a non-conforming use
under the present zoning) was improperly zoned because this can be considered
a quasi-public facility and that use is no longer allowed in the Rural zone.
Rosow said the applicant, after this matter was again raised in the May 23,
1985, Staff Report as well as in writing. has now chosen to request rezoning
( on the 149 acres. Rosow also noted that the Comprehensive Guide Plan must
also be changed if the zoning is to be changed. Rosow indicated Mayor Peter-
son and Staff had appeared before the Metropolitan Council on June 13, 1985.
The Metropolitan Council, at that meeting, had put a time limit on the
expansion; by 1996 the Flying Cloud Landfill will be terminated and will
not receive any additional waste. Rosow noted that condition must be included
in any permit which is granted by the MPCA. Rosow said the Metropolitan
Council also prohibited the landfilling of any unprocessed waste on the
present landfill (vertical expansion) after March 15, 1986; that portion
of the landfill would only be allowed to receive processed waste or waste
which had gone through a recycling process. Rosow said this must be con-
sidered in light of what Nowlin had stated regarding the horizontal ex-
pansion and the fact that this could not be completed prior to 1990.
Rosow said the City must consider what happens in that interim period
and this must be conveyed to the MPCA.
Bentley asked about the Council's procedure since the question before it,
regarding the rezoning, was found to be unacceptable by the Planning Commis-
sion and in two weeks there would be another request from the proponent
regarding zoning; what would be the appropriate action for the Council
to take since the Council would have two separate issues before it.
City Attorney Pauly said the 14 acres are included in the 149-acre request
which will be coming before the City Council at its next meeting. Pauly
indicated the requests are compatible; the actions could be combined at
the July 2, 1985, meeting.
City Council Minutes -8- June 18, 1985
Peterson asked if it would be appropriate to continue this Public Hearing
( to July 2nd. Pauly said it would be appropriate and action on the two t
items could be handled together on July 2nd.
Director of Public Works Lambert indicated his Staff Report was included

Report.
There was no report from the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission.

Comprehensive Guide Plan change, Resolution No. 85-148 - Planned Unit
Development Concept, and Resolution No. 85-150 - preliminary plat)
City Manager Jullie stated notice of this Public Hearing had been published
and notices were sent to adjacent property owners.
Brad Hoyt, Hoyt Development, addressed the request.
Director of Planning Enger indicated this request had been reviewed by the
Planning Commission originally as two separate requests. The request was
reviewed by the Commission at meetings held April 25, 1985, May B, 1985,
and June 10, 1985. The Commission voted to recommend approval at its
May Bth meeting of the PUD concept; and at its meeting on June 10th it
voted to recommend approval of the remaining items subject to the recom-
mendations included in the Staff Reports dated April 8, 1985, and May
24, 1985.
City Council Minutes -10- June 18, 1985
Director of Community Services Lambert stated the Parks, Recreation and
Natural Resources Commission had reviewed this request at its meeting on
June 3, 1985, at which time major concern was expressed regarding the
preservation of the wooded knoll. The Commission did vote to recommend
approval of the request subject to the recommendations included in the
Planning Staff Reports. Lambert noted that concerns were also expressed
about the bridge over the creek on Golden Triangle Drive.
Bentley said he would like to see a retaining wall used, if necessary,
to protect the wooded knoll. Bentley said he would like to have the end
look of this wooded knoll be the same as that of the knoll south of the
creek; he indicated he would like to see the tree line of this knoll go
to the bottom of the hill.
Redpath asked if Pearson, the former owner of the property under discussion,
could "walk away" from the property leaving it in this condition. Director of
Public Works Dietz said the area is now 12' - 14' below what was approved
in the 1970's, there is enough material left there to bring it up to grade.
Staff has been trying to determine whether or not the project would work
without bringing it up to grade. Redpath said there were many dead elm
trees on the property also and wondered who is responsible for those.
City Attorney Pauly said he said he would have to review the terms of
the permit which was issued to Pearson to determine responsibility/liability.
He did state that responsibility would probably not accrue to the subsequent
owner. Dietz said the work done by Pearson on that pit was secured by a
$50,00D bond; it would take about $1 million to correct the grade. Bentley
said he felt Pearson had violated the terms of the permit and therefore the
bond should be cashed; other legal action should be considered if necessary.
Hoyt spoke to the needs for office/warehouse space rather than office space.
Bentley indicated that he did not feel this was true and said the metropolitan
area needs about one million square feet of additional office space each year.
Frank Smetana, 7722 Smetana Lane, said he would like to have the Council
make a stronger point regarding the 875' contour. Redpath noted that if
the Council adopts the recommendations made by the Commissions and Staff
that will be taken care of. Enger said that an exhibit could be added
to the Developer's Agreement which would show this also. Hoyt said that
875' is all right at this time; they might ask for a change when it comes
time to develop the parcel. An 870' contour is now shown on the map.
Enger noted the area west of Golden Triangle Drive is shown as high density
residential and/or industrial on the Comprehensive Guide Plan.

City Manager Jul lie said notice of this Public Hearing had been published
and property owners in the project vicinity had been notified.
James Cooperman, architect for the project, addressed the request. Also
present were Scott Bader and Zollie Baratz, Bar-Ett Construction Company.
Planning Director Enger indicated this item had been reviewed by the Planning
Commission at its meeting on May 28, 1985, at which time it voted to recommend
approval subject to the recommendations included in the Staff Report dated
May 24, 1985.
Director of Community Services Lambert stated the Parks, Recreation & Natural
Resources Commission had reviewed this request at its June 3, 1985, Meeting
at which time it voted to recommend approval subject to the recommendations
included in the Staff Reports. The main concern of the Parks, Recreation &
Natural Resources Commission was with the trail system.
Pidcock asked what the density of the Chestnut Apartments and Atherton
Townhouses are. Enger said their combined density is about ten units greater
than the proposal under discussion; the density of the Chestnut Apartments
is greater than what is being requested; the Burning Tree Apartment complex
has a density of ten units per acre.
Pidcock asked about the traffic in the area as a result of what is being
proposed. Enger said traffic was analyzed in the Staff Report; there would
be about 22DD daily trips generated by this proposal. Director of Public
Works Dietz noted that Anderson Lakes Parkway would be completed this Fall
between Mitchell Road and TH 169.
City Council Minutes -12- June 18, 1985
Peterson asked when construction was expected to begin on the Parkway
Apartments. Baratz stated the recreation building would be constructed
first; construction of the first apartment buildings would begin this Fall

approximately two years.
Peterson read a communication from R. Smith, part-owner and manager of
the Chestnut Apartments regarding this request. (See attached.)

COMMERCIAL STABLE INSPECTION
{
Stable: Hennepin Technical Centers
6400 Rowland Road
Owner: Hennepin County Park Reserve District
Inspection Date: September 23, 1985
Inspected By: Jean Johnson, Zoning Administrator
Chuck Schaitberger, Animal Control Officer
Introduction
The City Council adopted Ordinance No. 34-83, enacting a City Ordinance for
licensing, regulations and requirements for all commercial stables. Commercial
stables in existence at the time of adoption of Section 5.7 were required to apply
for and obtain a commercial stable license within two years of the date of adoption.
A license is to be obtained in the manner specified in Section 5.02 through 5.10 of
the Eden Prairie City Code. Following this procedure, the commercial stable license
for Hennepin Technical Centers has been placed under the consent calendar.
Background
The Hennepin Technical Centers has been operating their horse care/study/train-
,
F ing/boarding facility since 1969.
The 23 acre site is zoned Rural.
Operation Review
Shelters In the upper barn there are 30 box stalls, 10' x 1D' or
greater, and 2 tie stalls for keeping of horses. The upper
barn also contains classrooms, offices, feed room, tack
room, and an indoor riding ring.
The lower barn contains 14 tie stalls and 7 box stalls.
Private boarded horses are kept in the lower barn.
A shelter is located in the pasture area which can
accommodate up to 10 horses.
Exercise Horses are exercised in a classroom situation with
instructors giving lessons to students, or they are turned
out into paddocks or pastures if they are not scheduled for
classroom time.
The private boarded horses are exercised by their owners.
If the Technical Staff notices that an owner has not been
out to exercise a horse, the staff turns the horse out for
an additional fee.
Commercial Stable Inspection: Hennepin Technical Centers
September 23, 1985
Page 2
Bedding Either ground cornstocks or wood shavings are used to bed
the stalls. The stalls are disinfected once a week with
lysol or lime.
Manure Manure is stored in two different locations (see map).
Storage The manure is stored in BFI dumpsters and removed 2x a week.
Due to the wet weather at the time of our inspection, manure
was stored next to the dumpsters, because the drive was
impassable for the heavy trucks to pick up the dumpsters.
Feed Horses are fed alfalfa/grass hay along with Purina 200 and
300 grain mixture.
Water Stalls have individual waters in the upper barn and a
combination of individual waters and pails in the lower
barn. Outside paddocks and pastures have heated outside
waterers.
Condition All horses appeared to be in good health with ample
of Horses body weight.
Fencing Fencing types are outlined in the submitted material.
Complaints
Todate One complaint was received approximately 18 months ago. A
boarder complained that holes in the lower barn wall created
unsafe conditions for the horses. The item was inspected,
and the stable manager stated he had already sent a work
order through the Hennepin County Offices. The item has
been corrected.
Recommendation
Staff recommends a license be issued for the Hennepin Technical Centers Commercial
Stable.
Follow up
Prior to the 6 month inspection, staff will visit the stable periodically to monitor
the manure storage pick up method. If manure is stored outside of the dumpsters
during weather other than unusually wet weather, a resolution will be sought.

RESOLUTION #85-219
RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PRELIMINARY PLAT OF PRALLE ADDITION FOR
JAMES R. AND KAY L. PRALLE
BE IT RESOLVED, by the Eden Prairie City Council as follows:
That the preliminary plat of Pralle Addition for James R. and Kay L. Pralle, dated
September 4, 1985, consisting of 1.05 acres into two lots, a copy of which is on
file at the City Hall, is found to be in conformance with the provisions of the Eden
Prairie Zoning and Platting ordinances, and amendments thereto, and is herein
approved.
ADOPTED by the Eden Prairie City Council on the 1st day of October, 1985.

Mr. Chris Enger
City Planner
City of Eden Prairie
Eden Prairie, MN 55344
Dear Mr. Enger:
Request approval of the attached replatting known as the Pralle
Addition for the following reasons:
1. To protect the property value by maintaining its ecological
and natural qualities.
2. To eliminate potential erosion of land behind my property.
3. To insure that no "out" buildings are built or placed directly
between our property and the pond and trees.
4. To insure the trees are not cut down.
5. To eliminate any conflict which may arise because someone
else owns the land between our property and the pond and trees.
We originally agreed to purchase our existing property believing
that the property included land up to the trees and pond, which we thought
was controlled by a public easement. This was also the builder's (Tim
King's) understanding. When we found that this was not the case--the land
being added under this addition was a part of another lot (which Tim King
had subsequently bought)--we agreed to transfer the land to our control
either through an easement or replatting. After evaluating both alter-
natives, Tim and I decided that an easement could cause future conflict
for the reasons stated above plus the fact that someone would be paying
taxes on land they did not control or shared with someone else. There-
fore, we agreed to replatting and adding the land to our property.
I hope this answers any questions you may have. If there are
any further questions, please let me know.
Sincerely,
•

lots, subject to the following condition:
Concurrent with the final plat, proponent shall vacate the easement for
drainage and utility purposes located between Lots 4 and 6, Block 3,
Paulsen's Addition, as shown on Exhibit A.

Mr. Chris Enger
City Planner
City of Eden Prairie
Eden Prairie, MN 55344
Dear Mr. Enger:
Request approval of the attached replatting known as the Pralle
Addition for the following reasons:
•
1. To protect the property value by maintaining its ecological
and natural qualities.
2. To eliminate potential erosion of land behind my property.
3. To insure that no "out" buildings are built or placed directly
between our property and the pond and trees.
4. To insure the trees are not cut down.
5. To eliminate any conflict which may arise because someone
else owns the land between our property and the pond and trees.
We originally agreed to purchase our existing property believing
that the property included land up to the trees and pond, which we thought
was controlled by a public easement. This was also the builder's (Tim
King's) understanding. When we found that this was not the case--the land
being added under this addition was a part of another lot (which Tim King
had subsequently bought)--we agreed to transfer the land to our control
either through an easement or replatting. After evaluating both alter-
natives, Tim and I decided that an easement could cause future conflict
for the reasons stated above plus the fact that someone would be paying
taxes on land they did not control or shared with someone else. There-
fore, we agreed to replatting and adding the land to our property.
I hope this answers any questions you may have. If there are
any further questions, please let me know.
Sincerely,
ar . rzLe/r t-." Kay 1. Pralle

SUBJECT: Round Lake Surface Ordinance
On September 3, 1985, the City Council gave first reading to the Round Lake

Eden Prairie, MN 55344-2499
Dear Mr. Lambert:
After reviewing your request for approval of the restrictions on Round Lake,
our Water Surface Use Task Force has recommended that approval be granted as re-
quired by M.S. & 378.32 and 459.20, subject to the following change:
Subdivision should be amended to allow motorboats which have
gasoline engines and electric motors to use just the electric
motor. It is felt that this amendment should not result in
any difficulties and should not alter the passive nature of
the lake. (The Minneapolis and St. Paul City lakes both have
ordinances allowing any motorboat as long as only the electric
motor is used.)
A suggested rewording is:
"Subd. 1 It is unlawful to operate a motorboat on Round Lake,
except for 1) boats powered by electric motors, 21 boats
operated by enforcement, emergency and resource management
personnel acting in the performance of their duties and 3) ex-
cursion boats owned and operated by the City of Eden Prairie."
In accordance with this recommendation, I am approving Eden Prairie's ordi-
ance number 28-85 subject to the above amendment. I hope it will provide for a
safer and more enjoyable recreational experience on Round Lake. Please send
Kim Elverum, our boat and water safety coordinator, a copy of the final ordinance.

DATE: September 26, 1985
SUBJECT: Authorization for Grading Permit Issuance--Eden Place Apartments
As you may recall, an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) was reviewed as part
of the Eden Place Apartment project by Tipton Corporation. At this point in time,
the EAW is in the middle of the review process required by the State Environmental
Quality Board. This is a 30-day review process, which will be completed on October
22, 1985. The City is not able to allow any development of a property under such •
EAW review until the 30-day process is completed.
In the case of Eden Place Apartments, the City has received final engineering plans,
final plat documents, and a signed developer's agreement for the property. In other I
words, the developer has met all the City's requirements and is only awaiting
clearance of the EAW to begin work on the property.
•
Because of this, Staff is asking for authorization to issue a grading permit after
clearance of the EAW on October 22, 1985, since the Council will not have another
regularly scheduled meeting until November 5 1985, two weeksafter clearance of the
EAW. Those two weeks may make the difference between the project being started this
year, or waiting until Spring, 1986. Staff feels that the developer has made a good
faith effort to comply with all City requirements and we appreciate the position of
developers during Minnesota's winter construction season. Therefore, we feel the
authorization for grading after clearance of the EAW may be in order.

DATE: September 25, 1985
RE: 1985 Special Assessment Hearing
Rowland Road Property Owners
During the discussion of the improvements that were installed concurrently
with the Carmel subdivision, questions arose regarding the burden of the
assessments against the existing property owners. Since there was a
considerable discussion regarding potential deferments for the parcels, please
note that a number of the parcels in the area have built-in deferments at
present. The following property owners, who objected to the proposed
assessments, have Green Acre status on their property:
1. Helen B. Pavelka ($15,789.15)
2. Hakon Torjeson $ 8,165.74)
3. Clifford 8odin ($ 3,463.54)
Three property owners who voiced objections to the proposed assessments do not
have Green Acre status. They are:
1. Marlene Larson ($1,369.52)
2. Roger Farber ($3,873.41)
3. Dean Holasek ($5,363.81)
A Green Acre deferment allows the property owner to defer the principal and
interest until the loss of Green Acre status which would occur when the use
changes or a reduction of acreage less than the required 10 acres. The law
now provides that after loss of status, the deferred principal and interest
can be respread over the property for the remaining years of the assessment.
There is no cap on the amount of interest that accrues.
I will provide more information regarding the objections on this project at
the Council meeting. However, I did wish to inform you of the Green Acre
deferment that is being utilized by a number of the property owners objecting
to the assessment.

Dear Planning Commission Member;
We live across from the proposed apartment complex that
is suppose to go into the corner of Homeward Hills and County
Road 1. Let me first say that we were completely appalled
and upset to learn that such a thing was even being considered
to be put on that land. We all knew that the land would be
developed someday. But a large apartment complex??? We live
in a nice quiet , home owned, neighborhood. There are no
apartment buildings for a few miles around.
In the first place, the land is zoned right now for
medium density. The land developers want to rezone it for
high density. Have you ever went out and looked at this land?
It is a very steep and narrow piece of property. I don't think
that it could even support medium densiLy much less high density.
There is a beautiful pond right at the bottom of the hill and
this would be changed dramatically. This land is just not
suited for this project.
We also are very concerned about the traffic problems
that adding 300 or so cars would have on this small area. Both
the entrances from the proposed development exit onto Homeward
Hill Road. And we might add that they exit onto the steepest
part of the road. Sometimes we sit for 5 minutes or so the
way it is on Homeward Hills Road just to get out onto Co. Road 1.
Can you image what kinds of problems that this apartment complex
will add? And volumn is just the main problem of the summer.
Wait until the winter time and these people have to try to get up
the steep road without taking a run at it. It will be a total
mess.
We all know how apartments will get run down. They always
do. People simply do not take care of something that doesn't
really belong to them. Or we should say the majority of the people
do not. The developer has said that the rents would be amoung the
highest in the area, however after checking into the matter this
simply is not true. So this means that the project will not
necessary attract the professional crowd that the developer would
have us all believe.
All things considered, this land is not meant for this
use. Take a drive out there and look for yourselves. Would you
want the land used for 11 apartment buildings? Certainly there

To: Eden Prairie Planning Commission
From: The residents of Homeward Hills Subdivision
Regarding: The proposed Eden Pointe Apartment project
We are extremely concerned over the proposed Eden Pointe
apartment project that is currently being planned for
the southeast corner of Homeward Hills Drive and County
Road One.
Our first concern is that of density. The parcel of land
under discussion is currently zoned at RM-6.5, medium
density residential, not to exceed 6.7 units per acre. The
project proposes the parcel 'e rezoned RM-2.5, high density
residential.
The basis under which the proposed project is submitted is
the Mill Creek PUD Concept Plan of 1973. This PUD suggests
a project of 160-200 units on a 20 acre parcel. The
proposed project calls for a total of 149 units in 11
buildings on a 15.3 acre parcel. Even when using the PUD
as a precedent, the proposed project is at the extreme
upper unit limit when prorated per acre. When compared to
the current property zoning, the project is 47 units over
the allowable 102 units for the parcel.
As the neighboring subdivision, we will be greatly affected
by a project of this density. For example, 600 more cars
will be traveling Homeward Hills Road, a road which already
presents many driving hazards due to it's steep hills even
under current traffic levels. This problem would be further
compounded under winter driving conditions. Excessive noise
and added strain on city utilities are just a couple of the
inevitable problems that will arise as a result of 300-400
more people being added to the community in such a small area.
In addition to the problem of density, we are opposed to the
project being a rental property. There exists many potential
time bombs with rental property such as high turn-over
and the lack of quality property management. Apartments have
tendencies to deteriorate faster and have higher crime rates
because the element of non-ownership exists. These character-
istics of rental property have only negative affects on the
neighboring communities.

Alik 1
Our main concern is to protect our property value and the
asthetic appeal of the neighborhood of which Eden Pointe
would be an integral part. 11
We leave it up to your best judgement, as members of the
planning commission and citizens of Eden Prairie, to vote
against the proposed project. We also ask that you turn
down the request to rezone the parcel to RM-2.5, high
density residential. We hope you will protect our stand-
ard of living that Eden Prairie has up to now, afforded us.
Thank you in advance for your efforts and concern on our
behalf.

City of Eden Prairie
c/o Planning Commission
Eden Prairie, Minnesota
RE: Proposed Development
Outlot H Mill Creek Addition
Dear Planning Commission Members:
We are a group of Eden Prairie residents that are concerned
about the proposed land development at Mill Creek area.
Being neighbors of the proposed development and citizens of
Eden Prairie, we feel that we should have a voice in the way
our neighborhood and city is developed. We are not opposed
to the development of this property, only the type of project
that is proposed. We feel that the planning commission should
not rezone this property to the higher density as requested by
Federated Development.
We have a number of concerns and comments that we would like
to address before the planning commission makes a decision on
the proposed project. We feel that a few areas of concern were
not properly covered by the developer. They are as follows:
VISUAL ASPECT
The visual siting diagram provided by Federated uses only two
site line examples, both of which are shown from the northern
most homes on Portal Drive. Why use two examples so close to-
gether? The homes that are used as an example have high berms
in their back yards, reducing their view of the project. No
sitings were used from homes further south on Portal Drive,
Mill Creek Townhomes or the Homeward Hills Development. Enclosed
is a picture taken from ground level in the backyard of 9741 Portal
Drive. This view is typical of the view of 8 hones on Portal
Drive. As you can see, even a six foot screening fence would
not reduce the view of the project. Due to the lower elevation
and bowl nature of land it would be next to impossible to screen
the Mill Creek Townhomes and Homeward Hills homes from traffic
and head lights.
DENSITY
The original Mill Creek plan called for a 12 acre townhouse site
and a 20 acre apartment site. During development the plan was
changed and the townhouse site was expanded to 16.7 acres leaving
only 15.3 acres for apartments. With this expansion most of the
more desirable building site was used, leaving the land with a
steep grade. Because of the proposed higher density, there will
7 •, ,C'
C C
-2-
{
be no "buffer zone" between the apartments and single family
property. This could be included in a lower density project
for which this land is zoned for.
TRAFFIC FLOW
Following a freezing rain or snow storm, Homeward Hills Road
is often not usable for residents of Hillsboro because the
intersection and Homeward Hills Road is on a hill. The residents
of Hillsboro can use Portal Drive as an alternate route to Hwy.l.
Residents of Homeward Hills and Bluff's West must often take a
run at this hill during slippery conditions. Right in the midst
of this hill is where Federated proposes the only two exits from
their project. An estimated 600 additional cars will enter and
exit at this location. Residents of the proposed project would
have a steep hill onto Homeward Hills Road and also a steep hill
once they were on Homeward Hills. We feel a lower density plan
would lessen traffic congestion and allow possibly only one better
placed exit.
UTILITIES
When our city engineers designed our water and sewage systems,
they used population densities that the land was zoned for,
(6500 sq. ft. per unit). As you are aware, the city has already
imposed a water use restriction. Even with this restriction,
water pressure is dangerously low for residents in neighboring
areas with higher elevations. Because of the lower elevations
of the property, a higher density project would further tax a
marginal system. We are told by city officials that system
capacity will not be increased until 1988 and restrictions will
be in place until then. We believe a project of fewer units would
put less of a strain on the system.
SURFACE WATER
Special attention must be given to surface water run off on the
steep slopes. If you use the pond for run off, the lawn fertilizer
will cause the pond to turn more green than it now is. A fewer
number of buildings would have less hard surface and more area
for water to soak away and allow for more bearms to control water.
The sandy soil will lend itself to erosion on the steep hills,
much the same way as in the Hillsboro addition.
Before voting on the project we ask you the following questions:
1) Will this project enhance our residential neighborhood of
Eden Prairie?
2) Would the lay of the land lend itself to a less dense project?
Possibly single family of townhomes?
3) Do we need a project with so many units?

12100 Travois Rd.
Eden Prairie, Mn. 55344
Dear Ea dill. PainnA1;1 i L+'rrul1 j
We have lived in our home since 6/1/81 and absoluteley love
this area. We take much pride in our community and feel we are
in the finest section of the Twin Cities area.
Our neighborhood is clean, quiet and has a very warm friendly
atmosphere. We like to think of ourselves as real "Neighbors";
caring about one another and feeling we are cared for too.
Our big concern today is the proposed development of the 149
unit apartment rentals on the corner of Homeward Hills Rd and
Pioneer Trail.
First: The land is currently zoned for RM 6.5 not to exceed
6.7 units per acre, which would amount to 102 units.
The Federated Development Corp. is proposing a 149 unit development
which would mean a re-zoning would have to take place.
Our estimated reveal a possibility of over 450 people and 250
or more vehicles to add to the already congested traffic on Hwy 169,
Cty. Rd. 1, and Cty Rd. 18, not to mention Homeward Hills Rd.
We have no guarantee that these units will be maintained through-
out the years or turn into a small slum.
We have no guarantee that our property will not decrease in value.
We have no gaurantee that we won't see our property damaged or
things disappear from our yards.
As taxpayers and voters we implore you to make the right decision for
all those involved in this important issue. We will be in attendance
at the Aug. 12th meeting , with a positive attitude, knowing that you
will well represent us and vote against any possible re-zoning. •
Sincerely,

Dear Planning Commission Member:
The proposed re-zoning of the property located in the southeast
quadrant of the intersection of Homeward Hills and County Road
1 should not be approved.
Since we moved to Eden Prairie in 1979, it has been a quiet,
friendly, well-kept, crime-free neighborhood. We have been
able to enjoy a beautiful view of a large grassy area around a
pond at the proposed development site. It is extremely relaxing
to bike, walk or run along this site as you feel you are totally
away from the city. If we allow high density rental apartments
within a few hundred feet of our single family homes, the traffic
(a minimum of 149 cars added to already hectic Homeward Hills)
and noise levels will become intolerable, crime will increase
and the marketability of our homes will decline.
Our neighborhood has been fighting the expansion of the Flying
Cloud Landfill for about four years now. If it receives final
approval, we will have the landfill in our backyard. Ban-Con
(our builder) advised us the landfill would close within two
years after we purchased our home -- now it could be open till
1996. Between 1981 and March 1985, we had two appraisals on
our home. The most current appraisal was $15,000 less than in
1981. While I realize market conditions have changed all over,
I believe the proposed expansion is already hurting the
marketability of our home. We don't believe our neighborhood
should be saddled with high density rental apartments in addition
to the landfill.
We place our trust in our government and elected officials and
know you will take the property owners concerns into consideration
and veto the proposed re-zoning.
Sincerely,
i

RE: Proposed Land Development at Pioneer Trail and Homeward Hills
I would,at this time,like to formally state my objection to the proposed rental
property development at Pioneer Trail and Homeward Hills,in Eden Prairie. The
land across the street from my home.
I attended the one meeting called by the developer to discuss the project. The
impression I received at this meeting was one of severe disappointment on the
part of the residents. Some attendants left in disgust. I heard one couple
mention selling their home,and my own personal feeling was one of devastation.
Although the attorney,who made the presentation for the developer,stated,and
would have us believe,that such a development would have a miniscule impact
on traffic,would in no way degrade the neighborhood and would do minimum
damage to the scenic beauty of the area. I believe these statements to be false.
At this meeting we were told that this land is zoned for approximately 200 units
so the proposed 149 units isn't such a bad deal!? Since the meeting the residents
have learned that the remaining land is zoned at 8.7 units per acre or a maximum
of 102 units total.
Another piece of misleading information conveyed at the meeting is,that the
developer owned the land and that this meeting was called merely to inform the,
residents of the inevitable. It was later learned that the purchase of said parcel
is hinged on rezoning and the planning commission go-ahead.
Mr.Mayor,members of the Planning Commission and City Council,please don't
do this to us! I guarantee,you won't find a single homeowner in this area without
an objection to a rental apartment development.
The people in this area are already carrying enough of a load with BFI's proposed
expansion. We all realize that this land will eventually be developed,but I'm
sure no one who bought out here ever considered the possibility of a rental
apartment complex. I was told that there were one of three possibilities for
development(1)a church,(2)an expansion pension of the townhouse complex or(3)single
family homes. This information was weighed into my decision to build here.
I know I speak for all the local homeowners as a petition is being circulated by
other members of the community and a significant attendance is expected at all
meetings regarding this subject. Please consider these facts when making your
decision.
Sincerely,
Edward P.Farre 1

Mr. Ed Schuck
Planning Commission
8950 Eden Prairie Road
Eden Prairie, MN 55344
Regarding: Proposed project by Federated Development Corp.
at Homeward Hills and Highway 1.
Dear Mr. Schuck:
We are writing to express concern over the above-mentioned project.
Virtually all those we've talked to in our neighborhood are strongly
opposed to the idea of such a large, high-density project.
This area is one of Eden Prairie's most attractive due to it's openness
and rolling landscape. A development consisting of eleven buildings
and adequate parking for these would completely destroy this aspect
of it's beauty, as compared to a lower density project.
With the opening of the race track across the river and the Pax Christi
Church, the traffic on Highway 1 has at least doubled. Perhaps if
you're not in this area often you may not have noticed, but please
try driving by anytime on a Sunday morning and you'll appreciate our
concern. It's apparent to us that with the addition of 149 homes traffic
will become extremely heavy on any day. This would definitely raise
the need for a set or two of traffic lights almost immediately and
perhaps the widening of Highway 1. Is this an expense the city can
afford?
Please also take into account the fact that our little neighborhood
has already run across several unfortunate setbacks. These have decreased
the value of our property and even caused the sale of one neighbor's
home serious delays and possible failure.
One problem is the approved expansion of the landfill. Another is
the possibility of toxic waste in our groundwater. Yet another is
the proposed Catholic community surrounding Pax Christi which will
undoubtedly further our traffic problems.
Please consider our position as you discuss the proposed project.
Thank you for your kind attention.
Sincerely,
V atit12- C yC2dnk

Dear Sir:
This letter is in regards to the possible re-zoning of the
southeast quadrant of the intersection of Homeward Hills &
Hwy. 1. We want to inform you that we are adamantly opposed
to the re-zoning proposed by Federated Development Corp.
We do not want to see high density housing go into this area.
We hope you will take our feelings plus the feelings of many
other neighbors in the area who will be voicing their opinions
and veto any proposal to re-zone higher density housing at
this site.
Thank you.
Sincerely, r/V ��

3. Modify the site plan to include an eight-foot wide bituminous trail along
County Road #1 and an internal pedestrian system linking buildings to site
perimeter trails.
4. Modify the site, grading, and landscape plans to provide a more appropriate
visual and physical transition to adjacent single family uses, through a
combination of increased setback, substantial berming, and heavy
landscaping.
5. Modify exterior building elevations to be in complicance with a maximum of
25% wood materials on any one wall. Provide color samples of exterior
materials which include a variety of colors within a common scheme.
6. Modify the fence detail to include brick walls, decorative fences with brick
pillars, or a combination thereof.
Site Plan
The site plan has been changed to reflect a decrease in the number of buildings from
eleven original to nine, while providing a mixture of 15, 16, and 17-unit buildings
in the same basic footprint as the original 12-unit buildings. This has been
accomplished by decreasing the number of tuck-under garages in same buildings from
ten to six and utilizing the area for living units. The garages taken out of the
buildings have been replaced by free-standing garages, which will help to provide
scale for the project and function as part of the site screening. The site plan
depicts a mixture of four, 16-unit buildings, three, 15-unit buildings, and two, 17-
unit buildings, in comparison to eight, 15-unit and two, 14-unit buildings on the
previous site plan. The resultant effect of this mixture of building types is to
reduce the total number of units from 148 to 143 with a corresponding decrease in
density from 9.69 units/acre, to 9.36 units/acre. In addition to the reduction in
total units and density, a number of other benefits have been realized in the
current site plan. This includes increasing the distance between the buildings thus
allowing for more "open space" and landscaping, the mixture of 15, 16, and 17-unit
buildings appears to provide the appealing architectural variety that was lacking in
the previous plan, and an improved internal circulation system.
Architecture
As mentioned, a mixture of three primary building types have been proposed for this
site. This mixture of 15, 16, and 17-unit apartment buildings has been designed and
located on-site to compliment the existing grades and to provide for an aesthetic
architectural quality not commonly associated with apartment complexes. As per
Staff recommendations, all buildings and garages have been redesigned utilizing a
75% brick exterior building material which has substantially increased the visual
appeal of the structures. In addition, the 16 and 17-unit buildings have integrated
a wrap-around unit design on the first floor, thus eliminating the number of garage
doors within the structure. The "free standing" garages have also taken into
consideration the existing grades and have been recessed into the hill, thus
reducing the massing of these structures. In summary, the architectural changes
made to the structures, including the addition of 75% brick on both buildings and
garages, the provision of a variety of building types, and the integration of a
wrap-around unit design, has increased the attractiveness of the project as
proposed.
1
Eden Pointe Apartments 3 September 6, 1985 g
Since there are nine buildings, Staff feels that there should be a variety of colors
within a common scheme to add variety to the project. Prior to Council review, the
proponent shall submit the proposed color schemes for review.
Grading
The primary change to the grading plan has been the addition of small berms (2-4-
foot) along Homeward Hills Road and a reduction in scale of the proposed swale along
the south property line. Staff regards these changes as positive in that the berms
add screening to the proposed garages and parking areas from views along Homeward
Hills Road, while the reduction in swale size allows for a more gentler transition
from the proposed project to the single family residences to the south.
Landscaping.
For a project of this size, a total number of 567 caliper inches would be required.
A total of 667 caliper inches have been provided. Of these, 227.5 caliper inches
are evergreen trees and 313.5 caliper inches are deciduous trees. In reviewing the
site plan in conjunction with the landscape plan, Staff has determined that the
placement of the planting material is satisfactory but that the sizing of the plant
material for screening purposes is too small. As the plant list indicates, 91
evergreen trees, or 227.5 caliper inches, are of the six-foot variety. Because of
the scale of the project in terms of building sizes, numbers, and location, Staff is
recommending that the minimum size evergreen planted, except those used in a
decorative nature, be at least eight feet in height. The result of using a minimum
of eight-foot evergreens without decreasing the number would be to increase
screening of the project from adjacent streets and residents while also adding to
the "mature" look of the project.
Internal Circulation (Pedestrian and Vehicular)
Based on Staff recommendations, the proponents have provided an eight-foot
bituminous path along County Road #1. Also provided is a six-foot bituminous path
connecting to Homeward Hills Road and continuing throughout the site, thus allowing
residents the ability to utilize the trail system.
Minor changes have been made to the vehicular circulation, and include lessening the
grade on some of the driveways, increasing the stacking distance of driveway access
onto Homeward Hills Road, and eliminating a portion of the internal loop road
adjacent to Homeward Hills Road. What this does is reduce the amount of impervious
surface and grading, while allowing for the addition of some berming and
landscaping, thus increasing the "attractiveness" of the proposed project.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff would recommend approval of the request for Planned Unit Development Concept
Amendment on 15.28 acres, Planned Unit Development District Review on 15.28 acres,
Zoning District Change from RM-6.5 to RM-2.5 on 15.23 acres, and Preliminary Plat of
15.28 acres into one lot, subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report dated
September 6, 1985, and August 9, 1985, based on revised plans dated August 30, 1985,
and subject to the following conditions:
1. Prior to Council review, proponent shall:
1
Eden Pointe Apartments 4 September 6, 1985 Ir

of eight feet, and an increase of planting materials between
Buildings 7, 8, and 9, to help reduce the "tightness" of these
structures.
B. Submit plans for the garages and recreation building.
C. Provide color samples of exterior materials for review.
2. Prior to final plat approval, proponent shall:

PUD Concept Amendment
The proponents are requesting a PUD Concept Amendment to change the building type
from six- and eight-unit buildings to 15-unit buildings. The larger buildings allow
more open space to be consolidated in larger areas, and less site grading. The
disadvantage to larger buildings would be a larger building mass. This, however,
can be offset visually through use of a variety of building materials and
architecture which helps visually reduce the building mass.
Site Plan
The site plan involves the construction of ten buildings, totalling 149 units. The
Commission will note that the initial plans received indicated eleven buildings,
which contained either twelve, thirteen, or fourteen units each. Based on input
received at neighborhood meetings about the close proximity of the southern-most
building and lack of transition, the proponent modified the site plan, eliminating
one building and adding those units to the other buildings.
Staff concurs that the southern-most building should be removed to provide greater
setback and better transition to the existing neighborhood. This will not change
the building foot print, but will change the front building elevations. The
elimination of the 12 and 13-unit buildings means that all front elevations will be
the same. This will be addressed in more detail in the architecture section.
The density of the project, based on 15.28 acres, is 9.75 units per acre. The
number of units approved under the PUD was 122-153 units.
Building and parking areas meet minimum setback requirements for RM-2.5 zoning. The
minimum separation between garages is 20 ft. and the minimum separation between
buildings is 35 ft.
RM-2.5 zoning would require the provision of two parking spaces per unit, for a
total of 298 spaces. A total of 339 parking spaces are provided, including 160
garage spaces and 179 exterior spaces.
Transition
The approved PUD Concept Plan identified a buffer along the southern and western
portions of the site adjacent to single family land uses. Sight sections provided
by the proponent indicate a range in visual sight distance between homes in the
Hillsborough Addition, west of the project, to buildings on this site of between 415
to 500 feet. Views from the second story homes in the Hillsborough Addition would
be all garage fronts, detached garages, and parking spaces. Views of these
buildings, although at a distance, are not broken up substantially through either
grade changes, or plant materials, and since all front elevations are the same, the
site plan could benefit from a combination of moving buildings farther down slope,
substantial berming, and heavy landscaping.
Sight lines from single family homes to the south of the project vary between 245
ft. to 445 ft. These views would also benefit from heavy mass plantings and herming
to help break up the views of the buildings.
Access
Access to this site will be by driveway off Homeward Hills Road. Two driveway
entrances are proposed: The first is 340 ft. south of County Road #I; the second
C C
Eden Pointe Apartments 3 August 9, 1985
driveway entrance aligns opposite Travois Road. There is a 430 ft., center to
center, separation between the north and south entrances onto Homeward Hills Road.
Sight vision distances in both directions from both driveways are adequate based
upon a 40 mile per hour design speed. Homeward Hills Road currently has a 35 mile
per hour speed limit.
Internal circulation is through a loop road system serving the majority of the
units, which provides for adequate emergency vehicle access, and a bypass, protected
lane, which provides a more direct route to the end units on the project.
Road grades, for the most part, vary between 2-4%; however, there are some short
segments of 8% grades.
The proximity of the internal bypass road to Homeward Hills Road at the north
driveway entrance is not long enough to provide for adequate stacking distance and
reaction time for easy turning movements. Staff expects that this situation will
cause stacking problems onto Homeward Hills Road. Staff feels that the turning
radii proposed are also too tight. Staff recommends that the site plan be modified
to shift the bypass road approximately 60 ft. to the east to provide a minimum
stacking distance of 100 feet. This will provide for better stacking distance and
will also reduce the 8% road grades south of this driveway entrance. Staff expects
that the change in road alignment will also cause a subsequent change in the site
plan pushing adjacent buildings to the east.
( Traffic
A total of 900 trips per day will be generated from this site based on a trip
generation ratio of six trips per unit. Staff would expect that the majority of
trips would travel northbound on Homeward Hills Road and from that point east, or
west on County Road #1 to County Road #18, or Highway #169, since the desired travel
line in the morning would be towards the major work centers of the Metropolitan
Area. AM-PM Peak Hour Traffic will be approximately 10% of the total daily traffic,
or 90 trips. Homeward Hills Road is a collector street, with 66 ft. of right-of-way
in a 32-ft. wide road surface.
Architecture
Ten buildings are proposed, nine of which will contain 15 units, and one building in
the northeast corner of the site will contain 14 units. All of the buildings will
have the same basic foot print and exterior elevations. All buildings will be two-
and three-story walk-outs, with the two-story elements above garages facing the
exteriors of the site and the three-story element oriented towards the Mill Creek
project to the east. Changing from an eleven to ten-building plan eliminates the 12
and 13-unit plans with one and two-story elements above the garages which Staff
believes added variety to the project. This means that all front elevations are the
same, creating a repetitive appearance. In order to add variety to the front
building elevations, Staff would suggest an equal mix of 12, 13, and 14-unit
buildings. With a 10-building plan, this would mean a reduction of at least 14
units. The size of the buildings would be comparable in scale, but somewhat shorter
in length than buildings in the Village Greens project. The Village Greens project
was approved at 9.5 units per acre, with a basic foot print of 55 ft. by 150 ft.
The proposed Eden Pointe buildings are approximately 55 ft. wide and 120 ft. long.
Eden Pointe Apartments 4 August 9, 1985
{ The primary exterior building material proposed is wood, with some stucco as an
accent material. For RM-2.5 zoning, the Code permits up to 25% of the exterior
elevation of the building to be wood, with primary building materials being brick,
glass, or stone. The use of wood siding would require a variance, which may be
processed under a PUD District Review. The proponent has not adequately
substantiated the request for variance. Staff feels that, because of the rental
nature of the project, as opposed to home ownership, wood should be limited to 25%
of the building exterior to help insure that the project will be maintained in an
attractive condition for some time to come. Since all buildings will be the same
shape and size, Staff feels that different material colors within a common scheme
should be considered to add variety.
Detached garages should reflect the same architectural style and exterior materials
as the main buildings.
Grading
The use of walk-out units on this site in a two-tiered, linear fashion allows units
to be tucked into the hillside and minimizes the amount of overall grading.
Regraded slope areas are, in general, about 5/1. Some slopes adjacent to Homeward
Hills Road are at 2/1.
Landscaping
For a project of this size, the Code would require the provision of 567 caliper
r inches. The landscape plan indicates a total of 623 caliper inches. Parking areas
are proposed to be screened by a privacy fence and plant materials. The privacy
fence is a stockade type, constructed out of cedar. The fence will not be stained
and will weather to a light gray color. The use of fencing to screen parking areas
makes sense; however, Staff does not think that the stockade type fencing relates
architecturally to the project and will present a long-term maintenance problem.
Staff would suggest a brick wall or a more decorative type fence with brick pillars
properly stained. The fencing should be jogged and supplemented with heavy
plantings to create visual interest.
Utilities
Sewer and water service can be provided to this site. There is an existing twelve-
inch watermain aligned along the western and northern sides of the property. There
is a 50 ft. sanitary sewer easement for a 66-inch sanitary sewer pipe running
through the center of the project. A permit will be required through the
Metropolitan Waste Control Commission for a connection to this sewer pipe and to
allow any grading, or parking areas, within the easement area.
The Fire Marshall has reviewed the project and recommends that watermains have a
minimum size of six inches, six fire hydrants be added, looping of the watermains,
and sprinkling of all buildings be required. The proponent should contact the Fire
Marshall for the location of the hydrants and looping of the watermains.
Storm water run-off is proposed to sheet drain across the parking areas and private
drives into catch basins. There are three major storm sewer lines that will be
(, constructed with this project to carry the storm water run-off down to a ponding
area in the southeast corner of the site. There will be an overflow control
structure, which will control the rate of storm water run-off into a ditch and
Eden Pointe Apartments 5 August 9, 1985
"a overland swale system that also serves as a drain for the pond to the east of the
site. The ultimate discharge of the water would be into Purgatory Creek. All
proposed overland run-off should be through storm sewer pipe connected directly to
the sedimentation pond as opposed to open swales.
Pedestrian Systems
There is an existing eight-foot wide bituminous trail along Homeward Hills Road.
The City's overall pedestrian system plan identifies a need for an eight-foot wide
bituminous trail along the south side of County Road #1. A six-foot wide bituminous
trail is proposed. This should be changed to an eight-foot wide trail. There
should also be an internal private pedestrian system which links the buildings to
the trails•on the perimeter of the site.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Due to the repetitive appearance of exterior building elevations, primary sight
lines into the project of garage fronts and parking spaces and lack of an
appropriate visual and physical transition to adjoining single family land uses,
Staff would recommend that the development plans be returned to the proponent for
revisions based on the following guidelines:
1. Modify the site plan to provide an equal mixture of 12, 13, and 14-unit
buildings. This would mean a reduction of 14 units, from 153 to 139. This
is a density reduction from 9.75 to 9.1D units per acre.
2. Modify the site plan to provide a minimum of 100 feet of stacking distance
between the private loop road and Homeward Hills Road from the north
driveway entrance.
3. Modify the site plan to include an eight-foot wide bituminus trail along
County Road #1 and an internal pedestrian system linking buildings to site
perimeter trails.
4. Modify the site, grading, and landscape plans to provide a more appropriate
visual and physical transition to adjacent single family uses, through a
combination of increased setback, substantial berming, and heavy
landscaping.
5. Modify exterior building elevations to be in compliance with a 25% maximum
wood materials on any one wall. Provide color samples of exterior materials •
which include a variety of colors within a common scene.
6. Modify the fence detail to include brick walls, decorative fences with brick
pillars or a combination thereof.

III. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS
A. EDEN POINTE APARTMENTS, by Eden Pointe Partnership. Request for
Planned Unit Development Amendment Review on 15.3 acres, Planned
Unit Development District Review, with variances, on 15.3 acres,
Zoning District Change from RM-6.5 to RM-2.5 on 15.3 acres, and
Preliminary Plat of 15.3 acres into one lot for construction of 143
apartment units in nine buildings. Location: Southeast quadrant of
Pioneer Trail and Homeward Hills Road. A continued public hearing.
This item had been continued from the August 12, 1985, Planning Commission
meeting in order to allow proponents to redesign the plans responsive to the
concerns of the Commission, surrounding residents, and Staff.
Mr. Peter Beck, representing proponents, reviewed the history of the project
to date. He then noted the changes which had been made to the plan,
including: The project had now been reduced to 143 units; the most southern
building had been removed from the plan and units from that building had
been included within other structures on the property, creating different
building types and architectural variety; the interior road had been
redesigned to allow for greater stacking distance to Homeward Hills Road; a
pedestrian system had been added for internal circulation; a greater buffer
Planning Commission Minutes 2 September 9, 1985
had been created to the existing single family residents to the west and
south, including increased setback and increased plant materials; building
materials were modified to include 75% brick; fencing was eliminated and
replaced by landscaping materials; trash enclosures of architecturally
compatible materials had been added; and, grades of the driveways had been
reduced to 5-6% for the south driveway and 8% for the north driveway.
Mr. Beck stated that the distances between buildings for the redesigned
project were also increased, in order that no unit was looking into another
unit. Mr. Beck noted that 70% of the property would be in open space.
Regarding the concern of the neighborhood raised at the previous meeting
dealing with the impact of apartment units on single family residences, Mr.
8eck stated that proponents had reviewed other projects in other
communities. He indicated that proponents had found that a project of the
type and quality they were proposing had ro negative impacts on single
family neighborhoods in terms of value of the single family properties.
Mr. Beck stated that all of the conditions listed in the Staff Report were
acceptable to the proponents, and that they would be willing to comply with
these items.
Planner Enger reviewed the findings and recommendations of the Staff Report
regarding the project. He stated that Staff was still concerned about the
f` closeness of the two buildings at the northeast corner of the project.
Planner Enger reported that he had discussed the matter of the icy road
conditions of Homeward Hills Road with the Director of Public Works. Upon
review of, the Director did not find any record of complaints for the road.
The Director of Public Works also indicated that there would be no
significant impact on such road conditions based on the difference between
103 and 143 units on the property.
Planner Enger stated that he had also discussed the matter of potential
crime problems with the Public Safety Department. They informed him that
their studies had shown that when a neighborhood loses its identity, i.e.
neighbors stop recognizing each others cars, or do not know each other,
crime increases. With respect to this project, Public Safety noted that
these were small buildings, with a greater chance for residents within each
structure recognizing each other, and therefore, would likely not be a
location for crime to increase. The Public Safety Department also informed
Planning Staff that there was no evidence to support any conclusion that
multiple family developments bring an increase in crime to adjacent single
family neighborhoods.
Marhula asked if this project had been reviewed by the Mill Creek
Homeowners' Association, or if it was required to be. Mr. Beck responded
that he had reviewed their bylaws and did not find any such provision.
However, he noted that all of the residents in the Mill Creek development
were notified of the neighborhood meetings held by the developer.
Marhula asked if this western portion of the Mill Creek Planned Unit
Development had been approved prior to the development of the single family
neighborhoods to the west and south. Planner Enger stated that the entire
n 1l1
1
i
Planning Commission Minutes 3 September 9, 1985
Mill Creek development had been approved in 1973, while the single family
residential neighborhoods to the west and south had been approved in 1978
and 1979.
Dodge stated that she felt brick was a preferable exterior material to what
was previously proposed.
Mr. Greg DuMonceaux, 9733 Mill Creek Drive, stated that he would have a
clear view of the project from his home in Mill Creek. He stated that he
was aware that there would be more development to the west and that he
thought most of the residents of Mill Creek were also aware that development
of this property was expected, and that the type of development would be
Medium Density Residential. Mr. DuMonceaux stated that he felt it was a
good project and that the developers had been sensitive to the views of the
property from Mill Creek. He added that he felt the exterior materials
shown presented a positive image of the project.
Mr. Mark Boomgaarden, 11870 Runnel Circle, indicated that he was concerned
about the zoning of the property. He stated that he felt the density should
be less than proposed. Mr. Boomgaarden also expressed concerns for the
proposed holding pond in the southeast corner of the property, traffic, and
road improvements that may be required by the development of this property.
Ms. Jan Daly, 12260 Travois Road, stated that she agreed with the concerns
of Mr. Boomgaarden, adding that she did not feel the developer had proven a
case for the need of more apartments in the City of Eden Prairie,
particularly in this location. Ms. Daly stated that she was still
uncomfortable about the possible increase in crime in her neighborhood.
Mr. Ken Meyer, 9741 Portal Drive, stated that he would prefer lower density
on the site. He added that he preferred the proposed brick exterior
materials for the development.
Mr.Greg Damlo, 12117 Cartway Curve, asked about the future upgrading of
Homeward Hills Road. He questioned whether the upgraded road would be
located "closer" to the existing single family residents, or to the proposed
multiple family development. He asked that the City consider not locating
the upgraded road closer to the single family residents on the west side of
Homeward Hills Road. Mr. Damlo stated that he preferred the proposed brick
exterior materials and that he would like to see a minimum percentage of
brick required on the structures. Planner Enger stated that City Code
required 75% of the structure to be brick, unless a variance was granted.
He noted that Staff was not supporting such a variance.
Ms. Linda Rudberg, 12100 Travois Road, stated that she supported the use of
brick as an exterior material for the property. She asked for more
information as to the impact of this development on the value of their
homes.
Mr. Marty Mehl, 9821 Laguna Circle, stated that he appreciated that the
developers had removed the south-most building from the development, and
that he favored brick as an exterior materials for the property. He
indicated that his major concern was the density of the project and the

caused by more people in one place. Mr. Mehl stated that he felt the
project would be better for the existing residents if it were in private
ownership, instead of available for rental.
Mr. Oamlo asked how many units would be allowed under RM-6.5 zoning.
Planner Enger estimated that it would be approximately 108 units.
Marhula stated that he felt Staff should review the plans for upgrading of
Homeward Hills Road to determine whether additional right-of-way was
necessary from this development and to determine the location of the road
bed within the right-of-way.
Marhula stated that he felt the question of density for any project should
be looked at carefully. He stated that there could be a difference between
density and the number of units for a particular project. Marhula stated
that less units would not necessarily mean a better project. For example,
an RM-6.5 zone could possibly be the appropriate zoning for a ten-story
apartment building. The density may be allowable under the RM-6.5 zone, but
the design of the project may not be completely acceptable for the area.
Chairman Schuck stated that the City could not control whether the units
were rental, or not, any more than the City could control whether a single
family home was rented out.
Regarding the proposed priding in the southeast quadrant of the property,
Planner Enger stated that most of the projects within the City provided a
sedimentation pond for stormwater run-off purposes. At this point, it was
still possible to proceed either way with the pond for the southeast portion
of the property, i.e. it could be an open water pond, or a pond which would
hold water only temporarily during wet times of the year. Mr. Beck stated
that proponents would be willing to work with the neighborhood to determine
what type of pond would be most acceptable to them, prior to Council review
of the project.

IV. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS
B. EDEN POINTE APARTMENTS, by Eden Pointe Partnership. Request for
Planned Unit Development Amendment Review, with variances, on 15.3
acres, Zoning District Change from RM-6.5 to RM-2.5 on 15.3 acres,
and Preliminary Plat of 15.3 acres into one lot for construction of
a 149-unit apartment complex in 11 buildings. Location: South of
County Road #1, East of Homeward Hills Road. A public hearing.
Planner Enger explained that the question of the zoning for the site had
been raised at the time of application for development of this property. It
had been assumed that the property was zoned Rural. However, upon checking
i
9
r Planning Commission Minutes 2 August 12, 1985
f
the legal description for rezoning of the eastern portion of the Mill Creek
development, it was determined that the legal description for the overall
Planned Unit Development of this property, including both the developed Mill
Creek site and the proposed Eden Pointe Apartments site, not just the
eastern portion of the site, had inadvertently been published. This
"incorrect" legal description resulted in the rezoning of all of this
property to RM-6.5.
Mr. Peter Beck, attorney for proponents, stated that proponents had reviewed
the Staff Report for this item and agreed that a continuance would be in
order. He stated that proponents had made efforts to meet with the
neighborhood to introduce them to the project and to find out what their
concerns may be. At a meeting with the neighborhood held on July 10, 1985,
Mr. Beck stated that the neighbors had raised a number of concerns,
including concerns about the southern-most building on the property and that
the landscaping and screening of that structure from the neighborhood to the
south. Mr. Beck noted that a second neighborhood meeting had been held the
week prior to the Planning Commission meeting, at which time, revised plans
were presented to the neighbors. He stated that, at that time, one of the
major concerns of the existing residents was that of the rental nature of
the project. Mr. Beck stated that it was the intention of the proponents to
develop the property of a rental project, and that, while the potential
conversion to condominiums was possible in the future, it was not planned at
this time.
r
Planner Franzen reviewed the findings and recommendations of the Staff
Report of August 9, 1985. Concerns noted by Staff in their report included
landscaping, screening, exterior materials, trail systems, and internal
pedestrian system within the project. Hallett asked what their rental price
would be of the units. Mr. Jack Brandt, proponent, stated that the rents
would be between $525 to $630. He stated that the proponents were
attempting to stay on the high end of the Twin Cities Area rental units in
terms of quality for the units. Mr. Brandt noted that all units were either
one or two-bedroom units.
Hallett asked about run-off into the pond, in particular, the effect
fertilizer might have on this pond. Mr. John Bergly, Wehrman and
Associates, representing proponent, discussed the storm water drainage
system proposed for the development. He noted an area where temporary
storage would be located in the southeast corner of the property.
Hallett asked about traffic in this vicinity and the impact that development
of this parcel would have upon traffic conditions currently. Planner Enger
responded that Hennepin County expected to upgrade County Road #1 to a four-
lane road eventually. No time table for the upgrading was available at this
time.

Ms. Jan Daly, 12260 Travois Road, expressed concern regarding the rental i
nature of the development and the maintenance of the property.
Mr. Robert Daly, 12260 Travois Road, stated that he felt this rental project
would change the nature of the entire neighborhood due to the transient
nature of apartment dwellers. He stated that he was also concerned about
traffic problems at the intersection of Homeward Hills Road and County Road

#1. Mr. Daly questioned the need for this type of building in the City of
Eden Prairie.
Mr. Paul Rudberg, 12100 Travois Road, stated that winter storms were a
matter of great concern in this area due to the ice build-up on Homeward
Hills Road. He stated that he did not feel that adding more cars to this
area would help that type of situation.
Ms. Linda Rudberg, 12100 Travois Road, stated that, at one of the
neighborhood meetings, the developer had informed them that rental property
would bring up the value of their homes. She stated that she did not
believe that this was true.
Ms. Mary Damlo, 12117 Cartway Curve, stated that she agreed with the
concerns of the previous speakers. In particular, she expressed concern for
the winter road conditions in this area.
Mr. Greg Damlo, 12117 Cartway Curve, stated that he, too, disagreed with the
need for more apartments in Eden Prairie. He stated that he felt the City
had plenty of apartment units available and that there were enough smaller
units in this area of the community. Mr. Damlo also expressed concern for
the winter icy road conditions.
Mr. Dennis Perry, 9661 Portal Drive, stated that wood had been stolen from
his home. He expressed concern that this type of incident would increase
with development of apartment units in this area.
Mr. Dan Noethe, 9861 Laguna Circle, expressed concern about the density of
the project and the impact of that density on traffic in the area. He
stated tha
t his main concern was the fact that this would be a rental
project and how that would impact the neighborhood in the future. Mr.
Noethe also expressed concern about the potential for burglaries and thefts
if apartment units were built in this area.
Mr. Mike Denny, 9810 Laguna Circle, stated that he agreed with the concerns
of the previous speakers.
Mr. Mark Utne, 9881 Laguna Circle, stated that he, too, agreed with the
concerns of the previous speakers.
Mr. Mark Boomgaarden, 11670 Runnel Circle, suggested that the proponents
could design the development to better fit the existing densities in this
area, as opposed to being the highest density project in this vicinity.
Mr. Ken Meyer, 9741 Portal Drive, also expressed concern regarding the
density of the project as proposed. He noted that the south access to the
proposed development along Homeward Hills Road was at the point where
Homeward Hills Road was the steepest, which could cause potential
"bottlenecking" of the traffic for all the residents in this area.
Mr. Teri Koch, 9728 Portal Drive, questioned what would happen to the views
of the existing residents to the ponding to the east. She stated that she
was concerned that the development of this property as proposed would cause
the devaluation of her property.

{
Mr. Chris Awes, 9721 Portal Drive, stated that he agreed with the concerns 1
of the previous speakers.
• Mr. Peter Horn, 9641 Portal Drive, expressed concern for compatability of
the exterior materials with those already existing in the area, in
particular, the Mill Creek area. He stated that he felt that the last
revision made by the proponents, eliminating one building and adding the
units from that building to the other buildings on the property, resulted in
the loss of architectural variety for the project.
Mr. William Warner, 9751 Portal Drive, stated that he agreed with the
concerns expressed by previous speakers. He asked if some of the concerns
raised by the neighbors would be reviewed and responded to by Staff in the
near future. Chairman Schuck stated that Staff would try to have answers to
all of their questions at the next Planning Commission meeting.
Marhula asked when the Hillsborough neighborhood had been approved and
whether they had been aware of the potential development of Mill Creek West
(the property under discussion) at the time of that approval. Planner Enger
responded that the Hillsborough neighborhood had been approved in
approximately 1978 and that the plans for Mill Creek West had been known
about at that time.
Marhula asked if the City had adequate right-of-way for the widening of
Homeward Hills Road. Planner Enger responded that there was adequate right-
of-way, and, with this project, the total amount of right-of-way would be
approximately 80 feet.
Marhula asked about the concerns listed in the Staff Report. Planner Enger
responded that transition to the north, south, and west of the project was
one of the major concerns. He stated that it was Staff's opinion that it
would take more than just landscaping, or screening with plant materials, or
fencing, in order to provide adequate transition. Staff was suggesting a
site planning solution as the best alternative available in order to provide
transition in these directions.
Hallett stated that he felt lower density may be an answer to the concerns
of Staff and the neighbors. He stated that he did not feel that developers
needed to always be at the top end of the range of density provided for a
site.
Marhula stated that he agreed with Hallett. He noted that it appeared from
the site plan that some of the units could possibly be looking into other
buildings and that perhaps the site plan could be "loosened" to provide
better living space for the future residents.
MOTION:
Motion was made by Marhula, seconded by Dodge, to continue the public
hearing on this item to the September 9, 1985, Planning Commission meeting
to allow proponent opportunity to revise their plans in accordance with the
concerns presented at the Planning Commission meeting of August 12, 1985.

Councilmember introduced the following
resolution and moved its adoption:
RESOLUTION RELATING TO THE ISSUANCE OF REVENUE
BONDS OR NOTES PURSUANT TO MINNESOTA STATUTES,
CHAPTER 462C, FOR THE PURPOSE OF FINANCING A
MULTIFAMILY HOUSING DEVELOPMENT; ADOPTING A
MULTIFAMILY HOUSING PROGRAM; AND AUTHORIZING
SUBMISSION OF THE HOUSING PROGRAM TO THE
1 MINNESOTA HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY FOR REVIEW AND
APPROVAL
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Eden
1 Prairie, Minnesota (the City), as follows:
Section 1. Recitals.
( 1.01. Under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C, as amended
(the Act), the City is authorized to issue and sell revenue
1 bonds or obligations to make or purchase loans to finance one
or more multifamily housing developments within its boundaries.
1.02. The Act provides that the City may make or purchase
loans to finance one or more developments of the kinds
described in Subdivisions 2, 3, 4, and 7 of Section 462C.05 of
the Act upon adoption of a program setting forth the
information required by Subdivision 6 of Section 462C.05 of the
Act, after a public hearing held thereon, and after approval
thereof by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency, as provided in
Section 462C.04, Subdivision 2, of the Act on the basis of the
considerations stated therein.
1 1.03. Representatives of Mandara Company, or a limited
partnership of which it will be a general partner (the
Developer) have advised this Council that the Developer
proposes to construct a multifamily residential housing
development on approximately three and one-quarter acres of
land owned by the Developer, located just east of the northeast
corner of the intersection of Highway 5 and County Road 4 in
the City, composed of 56 apartment units and other functionally
related and subordinate facilities and to operate the
facilities as a multifamily housing development under the Act,
to be known as Prairie Village Apartments, Phase II (the
Project). At least twenty percent (20%) of the units will be
specifically reserved for tenants whose incomes are not greater
than eighty percent (80%) of the area median income.
Development and financing costs of the Project are presently
estimated by representatives of the Developer to be
approximately Two Million Six Hundred Eighty-four Thousand
Seven Hundred Thirty-five Dollars ($2,684,735).
i
1.04. Representatives of the Developer have requested that
the City issue its revenue bonds or other obligations in the
approximate aggregate face amount of Two Million Two Hundred
Twenty-six Thousand Dollars ($2,226,000) (the Bonds or Notes),
pursuant to the Act, and make a loan of the proceeds of the
sale of the Bonds or Notes to the Developer for the acquisition
of land for and the construction and equipping of the Project,
subject to agreement by the Developer, or other persons or
institutions, to promptly pay the principal of, premium, if
any, and interest on the Bonds or Notes.
1.05. The City has been advised by representatives of the
Developer that conventional commercial financing of the costs
of the Project is available only on a limited basis and at such
high costs of borrowing that the economic feasibility of the
Project would be significantly affected, but that with the aid
of municipal financing the Project will be more economically
feasible.
1.06. This Council has been advised by representatives of
Piper, Jaffray, & Hopwood Incorporated, representing the
Developer, that on the basis of information available to them,
the Project is economically feasible, and the Bonds could be
successfully issued and sold.
1.07. Neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing
powers of the City nor any property of the City will be pledged
to the payment of the Bonds. The Bonds are to be paid from the
{ revenues of the Project.
1.08. The City has caused to be prepared a program for the
proposed Project (the Program) under the Act which has been
presented to this Council, and which contains information
demonstrating the need for the Project, stating the method of
financing proposed and that the Project is to be acquired,
constructed, and equipped pursuant to Subdivision 2, Section
462C.05 of the Act.
1.09. Pursuant to the requirements of the Act and Section
103(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code), a public
hearing has been held relating to the Program proposed by the
Developer under the Act, including the proposed issuance of the
Bonds, after proper publication of notice of the public hearing
in accord with the requirements of the Act and the Code.
1.10. The applicant has agreed to pay, directly or through
the City, any and all costs incurred by the City in connection
with the Project whether or not the Project is approved by the
Minnesota Housing Finance Agency, whether or not the Project is
carried to completion, and whether or not the Bonds or Notes
are executed and issued.
1.11. The adoption of this resolution does not constitute a
guarantee or a firm commitment that the City will issue the
2.
1
1
Bonds or Notes as requested by the applicant. The City retains
the right in its sole discretion to withdraw from participation
and accordingly not issue the Bonds or Notes should the City at

Prairie Village Apartments, Phase I
Construction of a Multifamily Housing Development
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C (the Act), the
} City of Eden Prairie (the City) has been authorized to develop,
plan, and administer programs of making construction and long-
1 term financing loans to finance multifamily housing
developments located within its boundaries, under the
circumstances and within the limitations set forth in the Act.
Minnesota Statutes, Section 462C.07 provides that such programs
for multifamily housing developments may be financed by revenue
bonds issued by the City.
j In creating its multifamily housing finance program, the
City Council of the City has found and determined that the
preservation and enhancement of the high quality of life in the
1 City is dependent upon the maintenance and provision of
adequate, decent, safe, and sanitary housing stock; that
accomplishing the provision of such housing stock is a public
purpose and will benefit the citizens of the City; that a need
exists within the City to provide in a timely fashion
additional and affordable housing to persons residing and
expected to reside in the City; that a need exists for mortgage
credit to be made available for the new construction of
additional multifamily housing; that a need exists to encourage
elderly and low income housing projects; that a need exists to
encourage development of a variety of living and working
environments for all kinds of people by holding development
costs down; that a need exists to encourage a variety of
housing types and prices through innovative architecture and
land use mixes; and that a need exists to encourage development
of a variety of living and working environments for all people
of all ages, races, and income groups.
1- The City has received a proposal from Mandara Company or a
limited partnership in which Mandara Company will be a general
partner (the Developer) that, pursuant to the authority found
in the Act, the City approve a program providing for the
construction of approximately fifty-six (56) units of rental
housing (Housing Units) to be located on land legally described
as:
Part of Outlots B and Outlot C, Gonyea 4th Addition,
Hennepin County, Minnesota,
which land is located just east of the northeast corner of the
intersection of Highway 5 and County Road 4 in the City. The
project is to be funded through one issue of revenue bonds, to
be issued by the City for the acquisition of land for and the
construction and equipping of the project. The acquisition of
land for and construction and equipping of the Housing Units is
hereinafter referred to as the Project. It is proposed that
the Bonds (as hereinafter defined) be either sold publicly
1.
through an underwriter or privately placed as a tax-exempt
mortgage, depending upon the condition of the bond market at
the time of the issuance of the Bonds, and that the Bonds, if
sold publicly, include some form of credit enhancement, such as
collateral, insurance, or a letter of credit to provide a
Standard & Poor's rating of no less than "A." Following
construction of the Project, the Developer will own and operate
the Project as a multifamily residential rental project. The
{ fifty-six (56) Housing Units will be one and two bedroom
apartments, of which at least twenty percent (20%) of the
Housing Units will be specifically reserved for tenants whose
Adjusted Gross Incomes are not greater than eighty percent
(80%) of the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan statistical area
median income. It is estimated that rents for the one-bedroom
Housing Units will be between Five Hundred Eighteen Dollars
($518) and Five Hundred Sixty-five Dollars ($565), and for the
two-bedroom Housing Units will be between Six Hundred Twenty-
1 One Dollars ($621), and Six Hundred Forty-three Dollars ($643)
per month.
The City, in establishing this multifamily housing program
(the Program), has considered generally available information
regarding conditions in the housing industry and the
information contained in the City's 462C Housing Plan, adopted
on October 30, 1978, as amended February 2, 1982 (the Housing
Plan), including particularly (i) the availability and
affordability of other government housing programs; (ii) the
availability and affordability of private market financing for
the acquisition of land for and construction of multifamily
housing units; (iii) an analysis of population and employment
trends and projections of future population trends and future
employment needs; (iv) the recent housing trends and future
housing needs of the City; and (v) an analysis of how the
4 Program will meet the needs of persons and families residing
and expected to reside in the City.
The City, in adopting this Program, has further considered
(i) the amount, timing, and sale of bonds to finance the
estimated amount of construction and mortgage loans to be made
under the Program, to fund the appropriate reserves and to pay
the cost of issuance; (ii) the method of monitoring and
implementation of the Program to assure compliance with the
City's Housing Plan and its objectives; (iii) the method of
administering, servicing, and supervising the Program; (iv) the
cost to the City, including future administrative expenses; (v)
the restrictions on the multifamily development to be financed
under this Program; and (vi) certain other limitations.
The City, in adopting this Program, considered the
potential financing impact of bond issuance on affected public
agencies. In addition, the City reviewed the method of
marketing the Program. Such review examined the equal
opportunity for participation by (i) minorities; (ii)
households with incomes at the lower end of the range that can
2.
be served by the Program; (iii) households displaced by public
or private actions; (iv) families with children; and (v)
accessibility to the handicapped.
The Project will be constructed and financed pursuant to
Subdivisions 1 and 2 of Section 462C.05 of the Act.

Prairie, Minnesota (the City), as follows:
Section 1. Recitals.
1.01. Under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C, as amended

bonds or obligations to make or purchase loans to finance one
or more multifamily housing developments within its boundaries.
1.02. The Act provides that the City may make or purchase
loans to finance one or more developments of the kinds
described in Subdivisions 2, 3, 4, and 7 of Section 462C.05 of
the Act upon adoption of a program setting forth the
information required by Subdivision 6 of Section 462C.05 of the
Act, after a public hearing held thereon, and after approval
thereof by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency, as provided in
Section 462C.04, Subdivision 2, of the Act on the basis of the
considerations stated therein.
1.03. Representatives of Mandara Company, or a limited
partnership of which it will be a general partner (the
Developer) have advised this Council that the Developer
1 proposes to construct a multifamily residential housing
development on approximately three and one-quarter acres of •
land owned by the Developer, located just east of the northeast
corner of the intersection of Highway 5 and County Road 4 in
the City, composed of 56 apartment units and other functionally
related and subordinate facilities and to operate the

Prairie Village Apartments, Phase II
Construction of a Multifamily Housing Development
Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C (the Act), the
City of Eden Prairie (the City) has been authorized to develop,
plan, and administer programs of making construction and long-
term financing loans to finance multifamily housing
developments located within its boundaries, under the
circumstances and within the limitations set forth in the Act.
Minnesota Statutes, Section 462C.07 provides that such programs
for multifamily housing developments may be financed by revenue
bonds issued by the City.
In creating its multifamily housing finance program, the
City Council of the City has found and determined that the
preservation and enhancement of the high quality of life in the
City is dependent upon the maintenance and provision of
adequate, decent, safe, and sanitary housing stock; that
accomplishing the provision of such housing stock is a public
1 purpose and will benefit the citizens of the City; that a need
exists within the City to provide in a timely fashion
additional and affordable housing to persons residing and
expected to reside in the City; that a need exists for mortgage
credit to be made available for the new construction of
additional multifamily housing; that a need exists to encourage
elderly and low income housing projects; that a need exists to
encourage development of a variety of living and working
k environments for all kinds of people by holding development
costs down; that a need exists to encourage a variety of
housing types and prices through innovative architecture and
land use mixes; and that a need exists to encourage development
of a variety of living and working environments for all people
of all ages, races, and income groups.
1 The City has received a proposal from Mandara Company or a
limited partnership in which Mandara Company will be a general
partner (the Developer) that, pursuant to the authority found
in the Act, the City approve a program providing for the
construction of approximately fifty-six (56) units of rental
housing (Housing Units) to be located on land legally described
as:
Part of Outlots B and Outlot C, Gonyea 4th Addition,
Hennepin County, Minnesota,
which land is located just east of the northeast corner of the
intersection of Highway 5 and County Road 4 in the City. The
project is to be funded through one issue of revenue bonds, to
be issued by the City for the acquisition of land for and the
construction and equipping of the project. The acquisition of
land for and construction and equipping of the Housing Units is
hereinafter referred to as the Project. It is proposed that
the Bonds (as hereinafter defined) be either sold publicly
1.
through an underwriter or privately placed as a tax-exempt
mortgage, depending upon the condition of the bond market at
the time of the issuance of the Bonds, and that the Bonds, if
sold publicly, include some form of credit enhancement, such as
collateral, insurance, or a letter of credit to provide a
Standard & Poor's rating of no less than "A." Following
construction of the Project, the Developer will own and operate
the Project as a multifamily residential rental project. The
fifty-six (56) Housing Units will be one and two bedroom
apartments, of which at least twenty percent (20%) of the
Housing Units will be specifically reserved for tenants whose
Adjusted Gross Incomes are not greater than eighty percent
(80%) of the Minneapolis/St. Paul metropolitan statistical area
median income. It is estimated that rents for the one-bedroom
Housing Units will be between Five Hundred Eighteen Dollars
(S518) and Five Hundred Sixty-five Dollars ($565), and for the
two-bedroom Housing Units will be between Six Hundred Twenty-
One Dollars ($621), and Six Hundred Forty-three Dollars ($643)
per month.
The City, in establishing this multifamily housing program
(the Program), has considered generally available information
regarding conditions in the housing industry and the
information contained in the City's 462C Housing Plan, adopted
on October 30, 1978, as amended February 2, 1982 (the Housing
Plan), including particularly (i) the availability and
affordability of other government housing programs; (ii) the
availability and affordability of private market financing for
the acquisition of land for and construction of multifamily
housing units; (iii) an analysis of population and employment
trends and projections of future population trends and future
employment needs; (iv) the recent housing trends and future
housing needs of the City; and (v) an analysis of how the
Program will meet the needs of persons and families residing
and expected to reside in the City.
The City, in adopting this Program, has further considered
(i) the amount, timing, and sale of bonds to finance the
estimated amount of construction and mortgage loans to be made
under the Program, to fund the appropriate reserves and to pay
the cost of issuance; (ii) the method of monitoring and
implementation of the Program to assure compliance with the
City's Housing Plan and its objectives; (iii) the method of
administering, servicing, and supervising the Program; (iv) the
cost to the City, including future administrative expenses; (v)
the restrictions on the multifamily development to be financed
under this Program; and (vi) certain other limitations.
The City, in adopting this Program, considered the
potential financing impact of bond issuance on affected public
agencies. In addition, the City reviewed the method of
marketing the Program. Such review examined the equal
opportunity for participation by (i) minorities; (ii)
households with incomes at the lower end of the range that can
2.
1
be served by the Program; (iii) households displaced by public
1 or private actions; (iv) families with children; and (v)
accessibility to the handicapped.
The Project will be constructed and financed pursuant to
Subdivisions 1 and 2 of Section 462C.05 of the Act.

EXHIBIT A
PROGRAM FOR A MULTIFAMILY HOUSING DEVELOPMENT
UNDER CHAPTER 462C
BAY POINT MANOR PHASE II LIMITED PARTNERSHIP PROJECT
Section 1. Statutory Authority. Pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes, Chapter 462C (the "Act"), the City of Eden Prairie
(the "City") has been authorized to develop and administer
programs of multifamily housing developments under the cir-
cumstances and within the limitations set forth in the
Act. Minnesota Statutes, Section 462C.07 provides that such
programs for multifamily housing developments may be
financed by revenue bonds issued by the City.
Section 2. The Program. The City has received a pro-
posal from Bay Point Manor Phase II Limited Partnership, a
Minnesota limited partnership to be formed in which Jim W.
Miller Construction, Inc., or its assigns will be a general
partner (the "Developer") that, pursuant to Minnesota Stat-
utes, Section 462C.05, subdivision 2, the City approve a
program providing for the acquisition of land and construc-
tion of approximately one hundred and thirty-six (136) units
of rental housing (the "Housing Units") to be located on
Anderson Lakes Parkway west of the existing Bay Point Manor
apartment complex located at 11185 Anderson Lakes Parkway in
the City. The proposed development is expected to consist
of two buildings, each containing 12 one-bedroom units, 44
two-bedroom units and 12 three-bedroom units. Approximate
initial rentals for the Housing Units are expected to range
from $495 to $505 per month for one-bedroom units, $635 to
$665 per month for two-bedroom units and $750 to $780 per
month for three-bedroom units. Rentals vary depending on
the location of the Unit within the building and the number
of bathroom facilities within the Unit. It is contemplated
that all Housing Units will be in compliance with all appli-
cable zoning ordinances and other applicable land use
regulations, including any urban renewal plan or development
district plan, and including the state building code as set
forth under Minnesota Statutes, Section 16.83, et. seq.
Section 3. Income Limits. To the extent necessary to
further the policy of economic integration the Housing Units
will be designed to be affordable by persons and families
with adjusted gross income not in excess of the limits set
forth in Minnesota Statutes Section 462C.03, subdivision
2. Twenty percent (20%) of the 136 Housing Units will be
specifically reserved for tenants whose incomes are not
greater than eighty percent (80%) of the median family in-
,
1
k
come estimated by the United States Department of Housing
and Urban Development for the Minneapolis-St. Paul standard
metropolitan statistical area.
Section 4. Need for the Program; How the Program Meets
the Needs of Low and Moderate Income Families. In estab-
lishing this multifamily housing program (the "Program"),
the City has considered the goals and information contained
in the City's Comprehensive Plan adopted on February 2, 1962
(the "Housing Plan"). The City has housing needs in terms
of additional affordable, safe and sanitary housing as re-
flected in data available to the City and contained in part
in the Plan. Consistent with the local housing needs in
this Program and the proposed Project will enable the City
to meet its housing goals by (i) providing additional
affordable housing with rents, amenities, construction and
location not otherwise available to the same extent and land
use; and (ii) encouraging low income housing throughout the
City. The City has further considered other factors such as
(i) the availability and affordability of other government
housing programs; (ii) the availability and affordability of
private market financing for the construction of multifamily
housing units; (iii) the recent housing trends and future
housing needs of the City; and (iv) population and unemploy-
ment trends and projections of future population trends and
future employment needs. Based on a review of the fore-
going, the City has concluded that there is a need for the
Program to help diversify housing options in the City and to
provide affordable housing to complement expanding employ-
ment opportunities within the City. The City additionally
concludes that the Program is needed to and will further the
statewide housing policy of encouraging private industry to
assist in providing decent, safe and sanitary rental housing
at affordable rentals to (i) the handicapped, (ii) minori-
ties, (iii) households headed by women and (iv) households
with low and moderate income. The Program meets the needs
low and moderate income families by providing a variety of
Housing Unit types and designs, some equipped specifically
for the handicapped, at reasonable rentals. The Program
also is also subject to the requirements of Section 3
hereof.
Section 5. Method of Financing. The City expects to
issue $7,300,000 of its multifamily housing revenue bonds
(the "Bonds") for the purpose of providing construction and
long-term financing for the Project and related reserve
funding and administrative and bond issuance costs. They
Bonds will be issued upon such terms and conditions as set
forth herein and as may be agreed upon in writing between
the City, the original purchaser of the Bonds and the Devel-
oper.
- 2 -
y
It is contemplated that the Bonds shall contain a
maturity of approximately thirty (30) years with yearly
amortization after the construction period. The Bonds are
expected to be issued within twelve (12) months after
adoption of this Program. A private placement of the Bonds
is contemplated, but a public offering may be utilized to
retain flexibility and to provide for the best means of
financing the costs of the Project, provided the Bonds are
secured in a manner approved by the City and original pur-
chaser(s).
Insofar as the City will or may be contracting with
underwriters, legal counsel, bond counsel, a trustee, and
others, all of whom will be reimbursed from Bond proceeds
and revenues generated by the Program, no administrative
costs will be paid from the City's budget with respect to
this Program. The Bonds will not be general obligation
bonds of the City, but are expected to be paid from the
properties or credit pledged to the payment thereof.
It is not contemplated that any additional financing or
contributions on the part of the City will be needed for the
completion of the Project or for the operation of the Pro-
gram.
It is expected that the Program can be implemented with-
( out subjecting some or all of the obligations thereafter to
be issued by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency to federal
income tax.
Section 6. Standards and Requirements Relating to Com-
pliance with the Act. The following standards and require-
ments shall apply with respect to the operation of the Proj-
ect by the Developer pursuant to this Program:
(1) Substantially all of the proceeds of the sale
of the Bonds will be used to finance the Project, which
will provide approximately one hundred and thirty-six
(136) residential Housing Units. The funds will be made
available to the Developer pursuant to the terms of the
Bond offering, which may include certain covenants to be
entered into between the City and the Developer.
(2) The Developer or subsequent owner of the Proj-
ect, will not reject an application from a proposed
tenant because of race, color, creed, religion, national
origin, sex, marital status, age or status with regard
to public assistance or disability.
(3) No Housing Unit may be in violation of appli-
cable zoning ordinances or other applicable land use
regulations, including any urban renewal plan or devel-
- 3 -
7
opment district plan, and including the state building
( code as set forth under Minnesota Statutes, Section
16.83, et seq.
(4) Pursuant to Section 462C.05, subdivision 2 of
the Act, at least twenty percent (20%) of the Housing
Units will be held for occupancy by families or individ-
uals with Adjusted Gross Income (as defined in the Act)
not in excess of eighty percent (80%) of the median
family income as estimated by the United States Depart-
ment of Housing and Urban Development for the Minne-
apolis-St. Paul metropolitan area.
(5) The Developer will enter into a Regulatory
Agreement with the City to ensure compliance with the
Program and that the level of low and moderate income
occupancy requirements of the Act, herein specified,
will be maintained for the period of time specified by
the Act and the Internal Revenue Code, in order to re-
tain the tax exempt status of the Bonds.
Section 7. Evidence of Compliance; Method of Monitoring
Implementation. The City may require from the Developer or
such other person deemed necessary at or before the issuance
of the Bonds, evidence satisfactory to the City of the
ability and intention of the Developer to complete the Proj-
ect, and evidence satisfactory to the City of compliance
with the standards and requirements for the making of the
financing established by the City, and in connection there-
with, the City or its representatives may inspect the rele-
vant books and records of the Developer in order to confirm
such ability, intention and compliance. In addition, the
City may periodically require certification from either the
Developer or such other person deemed necessary concerning
compliance with various aspects of this Program.
Section 8. Marketing of Program to Ensure Equal Housing
Opportunities. It is expected that the Program will be
affirmatively marketed to ensure equal housing opportunities
for minority households, households headed by women and
handicapped persons. The Developer is additionally expected
to use its best efforts to provide an opportunity for
minorities and women to participate in the production of the
Housing Units contemplated by this Program.
Section 9. Severability. The provisions of this Pro-
gram are severable and if any of its provisions, sentences,
clauses or paragraphs shall be held unconstitutional, con-
trary to statute, exceeding the authority of the City or
otherwise illegal or inoperative by any court of competent
jurisdiction, the Decision of such court shall not affect or
impair any of the remaining provisions.
- 4 -
t
{ Section 10. Amendment. This Program shall be a com-
ponent of and amendment to the Plan as recognized by the
Act. The City shall not amend this Program while Bonds are
outstanding to the detriment of the holders of such Bonds.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: City Manager Carl J. Jullie
SUBJECT: 1986 City Budget Review Follow- p
DATE: September 25, 1985
The following is additional review/data relating to the proposed 1986 City
Budget as requested by the Council at the September 10 special budget
review meeting.
P-8 Assessing Department
Council Members asked what the costs would be if Hennepin County were to
provide assessing services to the City on a contractual basis.
We checked with the County Assessor's office and found that the County
would provide appraisal services on the following basis:
- City must provide office space, furniture, equipment,
etc. for all appraisers assigned.
- City must provide 1 clerical person at all times City
offices are open.
- County requires a minimum four-year contract.
- County charges are on a per-parcel appraised basis. The
rate per parcel can be adjusted upwards each year based
upon actual costs incurred by the County, but the
annual increase is limited to 10%.
If we look at 1985 and apply the County's current appraisal rate, our
"savings" by utilizing the County's services would be approximately
$40,000. The reasons that we recommend continuing with our current in-
house assessing program despite this apparent extra cost are as follows:
- We have direct supervisory control over our own
appraisers and they are accountable to us. We insist
that they are competent, courteous and patient with
the public. We believe that we provide more
responsive and personalized services than County
appraisers would be expected to provide.
- The County now provides appraisal services only in the
following cities: Richfield, Golden Valley, New Hope,
St. Anthony, Mound and Dayton ('86). These cities are
not similar to Eden Prairie in terms of development
activity. Several other cities had County services but
dropped same in favor of local control.

- Eden Prairie has a great deal of new construction which
takes much more time to appraise as compared to existing
homes and business. For this reason, we believe that the
County rates would go up the 10% maximum per year, thus
reducing, and perhaps eliminating the "savings".
P-11A More House_ $23,000
This is the final payment due for the More House. The City will also be
spending approximately $9,000 for replacing the roof in 1985. The More's
paid for the driveway improvements in 1984 at a cost of $1,800. By a memo
dated April 27, 1984, included in the Council's FYI packet at that time, we
advised the Council that Mr. More had not formally requested the City to
reimburse him for that improvement, but that the Council "...may wish to
reimburse Mr. More for all or a portion of the cost of that improvement."
No further action was taken. The Council may wish to reconsider same at
this time.
P-11A - Capital Outlay - Parks
25 picnic tables - Approximately half of these tables will be placed in
Staring Lake Park, the other half in Round Lake Park. We are attempting to
develop additional small picnic areas in each of these parks that can be
used by families on a first come first service basis, as the large
reservation areas are reserved most Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from May
thru October. The picnic reservation area at Staring Lake Park will be
open for picnic reservations 7 days a week in 1986.
P-12 _ Telephone
The Council questioned the locations of outside telephone in the parks. We
have outside pay phones at Round Lake Park, Flying Cloud Fields and Riley
Lake Park. The pay phone at Staring is inside and therefore available only
when the building is open by groups or when the City is operating programs.
The cost to the City for pay phones is $50 - $55 per month while in
service; approximately half the amount when not in service. Each phone is
in service for different periods of time.
P-14 - Human Services
4330 Transportation 1985 budget $1,200 1986 budget $1,200
This item can be eliminated, as it was installed several years ago for van
repair, gas, oil, etc. These costs have been picked up under the Public
Works Department.
4382 Equipment Repair 1985 budget $1,000 1986 budget $1,000
This item is for repair of equipment belonging to the Senior Center
including such items as the dishwasher, typewriter, record player,
television set, telephone, piano tuning, etc.
4220 Supplies 1985 budget $1,900 1986 budget $2,000
The supplies are broken down basically as follows: $1,000 for new supplies
- 3 -
F
for the Senior Center. This money has been spent differently each year
{ when different items were added to the Senior Center inventory. One year a
paddle boat was purchased. Another year a stereo record player was
purchased. In 1985 two benches were installed facing the lake in front of
the building. Other equipment such as lifejackets, horseshoes, records,
volleyball and net, etc. have been purchased through this fund. $400 of
this fund is budgeted for office supplies for the Human Rights and Services
Commission basically relating to supplies required of the Commission for
the no-fault grievance process. $150 is budgeted for office supplies for
the Human Services Coordinator. $150 is budgeted for the Adaptives
Recreation Program and $200 is budgeted for Senior Center cleaning supplies
- toilet paper, paper plates, etc.
4220 Commission Expense 1985 budget $300 1986 budget $300
This item is broken down as follows: $50 budgeted for training of
Commission members in the no-fault grievance process basically goes toward
mileage for the participants to attend training classes. $50 for
conferences. This is budgeted in order to allow one member of the
Commission to attend the League Conference each year. $100 is budgeted for
meeting expenses (basically the no-fault grievance meeting with
individuals, and $100 is budgeted for League dues.)
P-16 - Organized Athletics - Equipment and Supplies
Equipment and supplies are basically the same and should be reported as one
line item rather than two. They include balls for leagues such as
volleyball, basketball and football and similar items. In 1985 $2,900 was
approved and spent. In 1986 we anticipate that $1,800 will be sufficient.
P=18 - Recreation Programs
The Council had several questions about the items under this program and
staff's response is as follows:
4330 Transportation 1985 Budget 1986 Budget
$4,200 $5,500
These costs are for busing for the special trips that are offered to both
youth and adults. These include ski trips; field trips for Kids Korner;
adult trips to the Guthrie, Red Wing, Stillwater, etc. The summer trips
and Day Camp for youth are paid for by fees charged to the participants.
In 1985, we started using coach buses for ski trips. We found the students
behaved themselves better. We also increased their bus fees to correspond.
Our costs were $600 more in 1985 for buses than in 1984.
In 1985, we added a forth week of Day Camp and a week of Sports Camp,
increasing the number of weeks for which we needed busing to five. Again,
these costs are included in the program fees. It costs approximately
$285/week to make a circular route of Eden Prairie stopping at from 5-7
locations.
Transportation cost increases for these two programs amount to $1,170.
2321
- 4 -
}
4226 Special Events (fees) $2,000 $3,500
These fees include the lift tickets for ski trips, snowtubing, adult trips
such as the trip to Canterbury Downs, Christmas Idea House, Guthrie, Summer
Evening of Romance, etc. In 1984, the admission fees paid were $3,230.
The budget was increased to reflect actual costs. These fees are paid by
the participants.
4426 Admission Fees $5,800 $6,400
These fees are for Special Trips and Events ($2,000) and trips as part of
the Teen Volunteer Program ($2,000). Both are no change from 1985 and are
based on a maximum participation. The Special Trip fees are paid by the
participants. The Teen Volunteers earn their trips.
The additional $2,400 is for horseback riding at Day Camp. This is based
on 160 campers, at $15 each. These fees are paid by the campers.
4341 Advertising $ 100 $ 500
In 1984, we spent $478.15 for employment ads for rink attendants, summer
personnel and program leaders. The proper budget amount for both 1985 and
1986 should be $500.
4350 Printing $ 200 $1,400
In 1985, almost all printing was removed from the recreation budget. After
discussing this with Chuck Pappas it was decided that it would be more
appropriate to place the costs of printing the individual program flyers
back into the Recreation Supervisor's budget.
4130 Instructors $10,900 $4,500
These are the costs for instructors paid on an hourly wage for the Leisure
Skill Development Programs. In May of 1984, the City Council turned over
most of the programs conducted in the schools to Community Education. Many
of the remaining programs are conducted on a contractual services
arrangement such as ski lessons at Hyland Hills. Therefore, we shifted
these amounts to more accurately reflect how the instructors were being
paid.
4420 Other Contractual Services $2,200 $7,000
$6,200 of this amount is for Leisure Skill Development Programs, which are
paid by fees from the participants. The remaining $800 is split - $400 to
the Special Events budget for programs such as Community Band, the
Halloween Party, Donuts with Santa and Adult Ski Trips, and $400 for the
Summer Playgrounds and Day Camp. This money has been used to pay the fees
for special entertainment such as the actress who performed at Donuts With
Santa or special speakers who come out to the programs.
4220 Supplies $4,000 $5,100
Supplies are broken down as follows:
1. Recreation Supervisor 500 500
- 5 -
2. Afternoon Playgrounds --- 800
It takes a lot of paper, arts & crafts supplies, etc. to put on a
program for 50 kids at one site.
3. Day Camp 1,200 1,200
Includes food, craft supplies, replacement or new equipment.
4. Munchkins, Kids Korner, Trips 850 1,000
5. Riley Park - Picnic Reservations 50 175
6. Leisure Skill Development 600 600
Supplies necessary to carry out program, paid by class fee
7. Skating Rinks 600 600
$100 per rink for first aid, brooms, log book
8. Teen volunteer Program 250 250
4224 Clothing - Staff Shirts 300 300
4238 Recreation Equipment 600 800
New and replacement balls, bats, games, etc. for playgrounds.
P-19 Forestry
The main question from the Council regarding the Forestry Program is how
many cities are still operating a forestry program? Stu Fox has indicated
that all of the first and second tier cities that he is aware of are still
operating a forestry program, in that they hire tree inspectors to mark
diseased trees. Each city has a different program regarding removal. Some
require the property owner to take the tree down and remove it at their own
expense. Some still subsidize cost of taking the tree down, and the
hauling. The City of Eden Prairie subsidizes the hauling costs. Cities
like Chanhassen, Minnetrista, etc. do not have a forestry program or a
requirement to remove diseased trees.
(See also attached memo of September 25 from Stu Fox).
P-20 Community Center - Pool Motor
4550 Pool Pump Motor and Heater - 1986 request $4,800
The Council questioned the necessity of purchasing an extra pool motor.
The answer is that a pool motor is not a normally stocked item. Pool
suppliers indicate that the delay may be anywhere from 3 days to 3 weeks
for order time. The pool pump circulates the water in the main pool. This
runs the water through the filters and also brings chemicals into the pool.
If the pool motor went down, the pool would have to be closed and the
longer the pool is closed the longer time it will take to chemically
balance the pool once the motor is back in operation. If the pool were
� V
- 6-
down for even one week, it could cause a great disruption in the operation
of the Community Center due to the heavily scheduled use of the pool during
both summer and winter months with swimming lessons, swim meets, high
school and swim team practices, etc., not to mention the loss of revenue.
In 1984 the pool generated an average revenue of $1,713.43 per week.
P_22 Guide Plan Update
Council Members had questions and discussion regarding the Comprehensive
Guide Plan Update process. Please refer to the attached memo of July 11,
1985 from Chris Enger.
P-23 - Equipment Repairs & Maintenance (#4380)
$1985 Budget $9,800 1986 Budget $26,700
Council Members questioned the large increase in this budget item. Staff
has responded as follows:
The sharp increase in the amount of monies requested for this item in 1986
over 1985 is a direct reflection of increased costs to maintain equipment
added each year. As our division has grown in numbers of officers,
companion equipment must be purchased for them to use in the performance of
their duties. Also, technical equipment has been added to the Public
Safety building which requires regular maintenance, i.e., closed circuit TV
system and related parts.
There are several other items that we don't list in our budget request
justification since the items shown there are only meant to be
representative. Additionally, items such as surveillance alarm equipment,
squad car security devices, photographic equipment, educational
audio/visual equipment, stationary radio equipment, to name a few.
Over the past three or four budget years, we have consistently incurred
more cost than we have requested because it was difficult to predict
escalating labor costs for calibration and repair of some of our more
complex pieces of equipment. It has also become necessary to overhaul and
certify certain pieces of emergency equipment on a more frequent basis to
be certain that it will function as designed when needed, i.e.,
resuscitators, radar, Aico-Sensor portable breath testers, intoxilyzers,
sirens, speedometers on a squad cars and certain armaments.
In 1984, total expenditures for this budget item were $11,830. Through
6/30 in '85 we have spent $12,014. I have requested Keith Wali and the
Public Safety Department supervisors to do a complete review of their
budget status and to monitor ail further spending to ensure strict
compliance with their budgetary allotments.
P-24 Fire Division Officers
Council members questioned the organizational structure and duty
assignments for the various supervisors. Our Fire Chief, Ron Johnson, has
prepared the following response:
The Fire Division has a total of 16 officers including one chief, three
assistant chiefs, two battalion chiefs, four captains, and six lieutenants.
- 7
The Fire Division has eliminated three officer positions over two years.
The responsibilities of each officer position are:
CHIEF (1)
Responsible for the overall supervision and administration of the Fire
Division. The fire chief prepares the annual budget input for the Fire
Division and administrates the budgeted funds as approved. The fire chief
supervises emergency incidents and maintains the resources necessary to
handle them. The fire chief is the focal point of the Fire Division.
ASSISTANT CHIEF-OPERATIONS (1)
Responsible for maintaining apparatus, equipment, and personnel. Second in
command to the fire chief. Supervises emergency incidents as directed and
provides feedback to the fire chief on equipment, apparatus and fire
fighter performance.
ASSISTANT CHIEF-PREVENTION (1)
Responsible for all prevention activities including inspections, code
enforcement, code development, public education, and plan reviews.
Investigates and determines causes of fires. This individual is also the
Fire Marshal, and provides normal workday emergency incident supervision.
ASSISTANT CHIEF-TRAINING (1)
{ Responsible for training and overall fire fighter and officer development.
Also responsible for program development and youth organization assistance.
Supervises emergency incidents as directed by the fire chief.
BATTALION CHIEF (2)
Responsible for the supervision of groups of stations, station captains and
special programs. These individuals supervise the weekend rescue program,
standby crews for special events, and fill in for the assistant chief of
oeprations when absent. Supervise emergency incidents as directed by the
fire chief.
STATION CAPTAINS (3)
Responsible for the supervision of a station, including its equipment,
apparatus, and personnel. Supervises a company of fire fighters at
emergency incidents.
TRAINING CAPTAIN (1)
Responsible for the training and development of all new fire fighters. Is
used as a communications and fill-in officer when needed.
SQUAD LIEUTENANTS (6)
The Fire Division has six squads of fire fighters. The lieutenant
8 -
supervises one squad. Supervises a company of fire fighters at emergency
incidents. Provides fill-in for absent station captains.
It is very seldom that all officers are available at the same time. It is
our intent to always have a sufficient number of supervisory personnel
available at a moment's notice. Also, in our organizational structure it
is the intent to always have at least one chief level officer within city
limits. I have attached an organization chart for your reference.

P-33 Custodial Service for Public Works
Staff has requested custodial service to help maintain the new Public
Works/Park Maintenance building. Council Members asked if the Public
Safety Department custodians would have time to also provide services for
Public Works/Parks. I requested staff to provide the attached breakdown of
the duties and time-spent for the two Public Safety Department custodians.
Based upon this analysis, I do not believe that they have sufficient extra
time to provide the needed services at the Public Works/Parks building.
P-40 Landfill Inspector
The proposed '86 budget does not include funding for inspection of the
Flying Cloud Landfill. Some thoughts the Council may wish to consider are
discussed in Mr. Oawson's memo of September 26th.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Carl Jullie, City Manager
THRU: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services
FROM: Stuart A. Fox, City Forester
DATE: September 25, 1985
SUBJECT: Summary of Surrounding Communities - Tree Disease Programs
A telephone survey was made the week of September 16, 1985 to determine how any
adjacent communities were still continuing with their diseased tree programs.
Basically, all communities which have conducted a shade tree disease program since
the Minnesota Shade Tree Program was discontinued in 1982 are still doing so. Some
of the neighboring cities with programs are: Minnetonka, Bloomington, Edina,
Hopkins, Richfield, St. Louis Park and Plymouth. However, if you go west and south
from Eden Prairie, the number of communities with programs is not as contiguous as
those to our east. Communities with programs are Chaska, Victoria (limited) and
Shakopee. Cities without programs are Chanhassen, Waconia and Prior Lake.
As a point of interest, I also obtained the following budget information from some
of the adjacent cammunites with tree programs. These totals are for tree disease
removal or related activities such as boulevard tree trimming.
1984 19B6 Comments
Chaska $24,000 $30,000 Trimming/removal contracts for public property
St. Louis Park 130,000 134,000 Trimming/removal of City trees
Plymouth 45,000 55,000 Voluntary program "having a lot of problems"
Hopkins 90,000 100,000 Majority of budget for trimming/removal of City

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Chris Enger, Director of Planning
THROUGH: Carl J. Jullie, City tanager
DATE: July 11, 1985
SUBJECT: Update of Comprehensive Guide Plan
Staff had been requested to update the City Council on current activities relating
to the ongoing updating of the Comprehensive Guide Plan.
The Guide Plan graphic has been undergoing continual updating since its adoption in
1982. Staff will be completing, within the next few weeks, the most recent version
of the Guide Plan graphic, which will bring it up to date with the land use changes
which have occurred since its last revision. No action will be required on the
Council's part since Staff work merely reflects "catch-up" on changes which the
Council has already officially adopted.
Planning Staff has recently completed an overall City land use inventory, copies of
which have been distributed to the Council, that quantifies existing urban uses and
identifies amounts of land available for development in different urban categories. 1
This inventory update is a major portion of the framework for the Comprehensive j
Plan.
In 1983, the Planning Staff compiled a Community Profile, which was made up of
population and employment demographics, trends, and general information. This has
been brought up to date as of May, 1985, and will supplement the land use inventory
information.
An additional section of the Comprehensive Plan which has been completed in draft
form is the Housing Assistance Plan. Internal Planning Department review is pending
on this section of the Guide Plan.
The Metropolitan Council is requiring ;ome changes to the Airport Chapter of our
plan. The Planning Staff Liaison to the Flying Cloud Airport Advisory Commission
(FCAAC) has reviewed the Metropolitan Council's requirements and will be working
with the FCAAC to develop recommendations for the City Council's review.
The Capital Improvements Program, which would include parks, public buildings,
utility improvements, and roads, will need some work at this time to coordinate the
recent recommendations of the Ad Hoc Committee on Bond Issues for Public Needs.
City Staff has been working with Black and Veatch engineering firm to update the
City's Comprehensive Water Plan. Completion of this is expected later this Summer.
Chapter 4 of the Comprehensive Plan includes the goals, objectives, and policies of
the City. We are currently reviewing that chapter of the Guide Plan to determine
- 13 -
the status of each item. In addition, we are working with the Development
Commission of the City and the Economic Development Commission of the Chamber of
Commerce, both of which have requested the opportunity to provide input on this
section of the Guide Plan. We think that it would also be appropriate over the next
few months to gain input from the other City Commissions on Chapter 4 for the City
Council's review.
The Planning Staff is currently compiling physical information such as property
ownerships, topography, vegetation, etc., on the southwest area of the community,
and will be working on a draft plan for submission to the Commissions and Council
later in the year.
It may also be beneficial to prepare, and Staff has begun work on, a more detailed
land use plan for the Major Center Area. We feel that this could be prepared
relatively quickly and be ready for -eview by the Planning Commission and City
Council later in the year.
Still pending from the 1g80 Metropolitan Council review of the City's Comprehensive
Plan is the Comprehensive Sewer Plan. The City has a schematic overall
Comprehensive Sewer Plan, but it is not done in accordance with guidelines
acceptable to the Metropolitan Council. City Staff has agreed to prepare this plan,
but was never given proper guidelines from the Metropolitan Council Staff until this
year. The City Engineering Staff will require until the end of this year to
complete the plan in accordance with Metropolitan Council guidelines.
Based upon our past experiences with the Metropolitan Council and other regional
agencies, we believe it to be in Eden Prairie's best interest to continually update
the Comprehensive Plan so that appropriate pieces of it may be submitted to the
Metropolitan Council only when necessary. This should help keep the City
continually on track and prevent any surprises from regional agencies by containing
their review to manageable sections of the Comprehensive Plan. We feel that this
way of proceeding will allow Eden Prairie to retain more control of its
Comprehensive Plan at the local level.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: City Manager Carl J. Jullie
FROM: Assistant to the City Manager Craig W. Dawson ap
SUBJECT: LANDFILL INSPECTION BY THE CITY
DATE: September 26, 1985
As the hearing process for the proposed expansion of the Flying Cloud
Sanitary Landfill has lengthened and evidence of pollution has subsequently
developed, the City Council has asked for information about a variety of
inspections the City could conduct associated with landfill construction
and operations. Staff has done some research in this area and can now
identify alternatives.
Definition of Inspection: Landfill inspection activities essentially fall
into two areas: construction and operations. As a new phase of the
landfill is opened, an inspector reviews plans and observes construction to
ensure that the new phase is built in conformance with plans and
specifications. Dperation inspections include observation of individual
truckloads to ensure that only acceptable refuse is deposited in the
landfill; inspection that adequate daily, interim and final cover is placed
over waste material; and testing and monitoring for groundwater quality as
well as the presence of methane and other gases. While construction and
operations are inspection of the physical aspects of landfilling, there are
such administrative matters as proper recording of the amount of waste
received and fill area used which may be candidates for inspection.
Throughout the remainder of this memorandum, however, comments will focus
on inspection of the physical components of a landfill.
Who Would Do Inspections?: The types of inspections contemplated are
current the responsibility of and being done by the Minnesota Pollution
Control Agency, Hennepin County, and Woodlake Sanitary Service, Inc. These
entities have available the knowledge and expertise to provide adequate
inspection of the landfill. While the government agencies may have these
specialized resources, it is perceived that these resources are
insufficient to meet a desired level of inspection and enforcement in Eden
Prairie. Consequently, the City must also have access to qualified
inspectors to attain the desired level of vigilance.
Procuring the services of a qualified consulting firm is one way to address
the issue of providing staff for inspection. The advantages of this
approach include having access to specialized and interdisciplinary
knowledge and experience; having flexible working arrangements; and having
the inspection services terminate with final closure of the landfill. An
apparently limited number of properly qualified firms exist in the Twin
Cities metropolitan area. As a consequence, consulting fees for these
services may be somewhat higher than other types of services for which the
City contracts.
- 17 -
An alternative to hiring a consultant would be adding an Environmental
Health Inspector to the City staff. Environmental health inspectors
monitor sources of air, water, and noise pollution. They are also in such
public health areas as sanitation, litter, and nuisance control. Their
work often involves issues of enforcing zoning and licensing regulations.
Typical educational backgrounds for these positions are in biology,
chemistry, industrial hygiene, or public health.
Because spending most of every day at the landfill can be perceived as
boring enough to create a high rate of employee turnover, limiting landfill
inspections to periodic and unscheduled visits is desirable. If the City
were to hire a consultant, this periodicity would be reflected in thee
terms of the agreement for services. If the City were to hire an
environmental health inspector, landfill inspection could be a part of the
job responsibilities. Other areas of responsibility - e.g., general
pollution control, sanitation, nuisance,litter, zoning and licensing
enforcement - could be added to the duties of this position. These areas
are ones in which the City has been receiving a slow but steadily
increasing number of complaints.
Costs and Sources of Revenue: The City of Medina retains the services of a
consultant for part of its landfill inspection program. That City will pay
$8,000 - $9,000 this year for having a member of the consultant staff
present one full day twice per month. This consultant indicated that
having a person at the landfill one-half day twice per week would cost
$20,000 to $25,000 annually.
The salary (without fringe benefits) for an environmental health inspector
varies with the level of experience desired. Entry-level positions range
in pay from $18,000 to $23,000. Experienced personnel generally have a
starting salary of $22,000 to $26,000. Additional training in the
characteristics of landfill and municipal solid waste may also be needed.
Revenues may come from an additional general fund levy; any excess of
landfill surcharge fees above the $200,000 figure in projected revenue in
the 1986 budget; or through the negotiation process with the landfill owner
as a condition of approval for solid waste permit(s). Some combination of
these three revenue sources will likely be needed to fund either staffing
alternative.
Whither the State or County Responsibilities?: Both the MPCA and Hennepin
County now do some inspection activities. The MPCA enforces the provisions
of its solid waste permit. Hennepin County's license to operate the
facility incorporates the MPCA permit and adds a few conditions more
stringent than the State. If the City were to begin landfill inspection,
we should not be too surprised if these agencies were to leave overall
inspection of the landfill to the City by default, and thus be able to use
their limited resources at other locations. What liability the City may
then incur is unclear.
Summary: If the City Council were to decide that it wished to begin
separate inspection of the landfill, it appears that the primary
consideration is whether to have it done by a consultant or City staff. If
a level of service similar to that of the City of Medina were desired, then
using a consultant would be more cost-effective. If a more rigorous
enforcement program were desired, the City's overall needs would be better
served by an in-house environmental health inspector.

All Council members were present.
II. DISCUSSION OF TRANSIT ALTERNATIVE (OPT-OUT) STUDY
A. Background
Dick Wolsfeld of BRW gave an overview of the transit service demonstration
program. He noted the Legislature had given the City the right to "opt-
( should it so desire. The City now pays $540,000 to the Metropolitan
Transit Commission for transit service. The study is looking at what might
be done to improve transit service in this area. A specific implementation
plan (noting costs, a service plan, who should provide the service, etc.)
will be forthcoming. The consultant is now working on alternatives -
defining and evaluating them - along with a management team consisting of
representatives of each of the cities involved.
B. Review of Study to Date
The methodology used in the study was reviewed by Wolsfeld. He noted a
more complete report would be provided sometime in late August.
Wolsfeld reviewed the present service and the costs of that service.
C. Discussion
There was discussion on the amount of subsidy involved in the service
provided to Eden Prairie residents. There are 420 transit trips in
Eden Prairie each day at the present time.
City Council Minutes -2- July 16, 1985
D. Direction of Study
Wolsfeld reviewed the alternatives under consideration.
Anderson said he would like to have more information as to what the
City of Plymouth has done with its opt-out program -- how it is
working and ridership information. He suggested a joint meeting
with the cities Eden Prairie is working with be held at which time
a representative(s) from Plymouth could tell about their program.

III. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. MOUNT CURVE ADDITION by Mount Curve Developers. Request for Comprehensive
Guide Plan Amendment from Low Density Residential to Medium Density Resi-
dential on 2.24 acres, rezoning from Rural to RM-6.5 for 2.24 acres, and
Preliminary Plat of 2.87 acres into nine lots for seven townhouse units.
Location: southwest corner of Franio Road and Mount Curve Road. (Resolu-
tion No. 85-169 - Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment, Ordinance No. 25-85 -
rezoning and Resolution No. 85-170 - preliminary plat)
` Assistant to the City Manager Dawson stated notice of this Public Hearing
had been published and property owners within the project vicinity had
been notified.
Laurie Johnson, engineer for the proponent, and Bill Havek, attorney for
the proponent were present to address the proposal.
Senior Planner Franzen said this request had been reviewed by the Planning
Commission at its meetings on June 10 and June 24, 1985. At the June 24th
Meeting the Commission voted (4-3) to recommend approval subject to the
recommendations included in the Staff Report dated June 7, 1985, the main
point of discussion was whether or not there should be six or seven units.
The Planning Commission was in basic agreement that multi-family use was
better on this site than single-family use. Franzen noted the method to
be used for tree replacement; oak trees would have to be replaced according
to their diameter rather than on a caliper inch basis.
Director of Public Works Dietz stated the proponent realized a solution
must be reached regarding drainage in this area and said that this would
be accomplished between 1st and 2nd Readings of the Ordinance.
Anderson asked if the Planning Commission felt the method of tree replace-
ment could be accomplished. Havek said they felt they could work around
the existing oak trees.
i
1
City Council Minutes -3- July 16, 1985
Redpath asked who would be responsible for the staking of the existing
trees. Franzen noted the developer is required to stake the grading
limits and the City then goes out to check to see that it is being done
according to the plan. Franzen said that grading permits would not be
granted until the City had made an initial inspection of the area.
Bentley asked how long it would take to review the storm water question;
could that be resolved prior to 2nd Reading. Dietz noted the Bluffs West
5th area posed a similar problem and was accomplished with a stipulation
similar to what might be proposed here.
Bentley asked if the eastern road connection was satisfactory. Dietz said
it was from the standpoint of safety even though it was less than 125' from
the intersection.
Bentley said he did not see where removing one unit would improve the
project.
There was discussion regarding the drainage in the area and the impact
of the proposal on the trees.
There were no comments from the audience.
MDT1ON: Bentley moved, seconded by Pidcock, to close the Public Hearing
and to adopt Resolution No. B5-169, amending the Comprehensive Municipal
Plan. Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Pidcock, to give 1st Reading to
Ordinance No. 25-85, rezoning. Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to adopt Resolution No.
85-170, approving the preliminary plat of Mount Curve Addition for Mount
Curve Developers (into nine lots for seven townhouse units). Motion
carried unanimously.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to direct Staff to prepare
a Developer's Agreement per Commission and Staff recommendations and
with the 2nd Reading of the Ordinance contingent upon resolution of the
storm drainage question. Motion carried unanimously.
B. CROSSROADS CENTER by Vantage Properties. Request for a Zoning District
Change from C-Regional to C-Regional Service on 2.99 acres, with variances
to be reviewed by the Board of Appeals, Preliminary Plat of approximately
11.4 acres into one lot, one outlot, and road right-of-way, for construction
of a commercial center. Location: east side of Highway #169, south and
west of Prairie Center Drive, north of Major Media (Ordinance No. 26-85 -
rezoning and Resolution No. 85-171 - preliminary plat)
City Council Minutes -4- July 16, 1985
Assistant to the City Manager Dawson said notice of this Public Hearing
had been published and property owners within the project vicinity had
been notified.
Bruce Watson, Vantage Companies, addressed the request.
Senior Planner Franzen stated the Planning Commission had considered
this request at its meeting on June 24, 1985. The Commission voted
to recommend approval of the request subject to the recommendations
included in the June 21, 1985, Staff Report. Franzen called attention
to a memorandum to the Council dated July 12, 1985, which further outlined
to changes made in the site plan; these changes had been agreed to by
Vantage.
Bentley asked why parking requirements were not the same as those which
had been previously required by Staff. Franzen said the size of cars
is now smaller and more green area will be provided with smaller spaces.
Anderson asked about the loss of trees on the site. Franzen noted that
trees would be lost with any development of this area; tree replacement
will be a requirement in the Developer's Agreement.
Director of Community Services Lambert said this request had been re-
viewed by the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resouces Commission at its
July 15, 1985, Meeting at which time the Commission voted to recommend
approval subject to the recommendations included in the Staff Report.
Lambert noted the only issue raised by the Commission dealt with the
trees.
Pidcock said she was concerned about the fact that old trees were being
replaced by very young trees.
Pidcock expressed concern about access to the site. Watson indicated
they felt three access points to the site were enough. Bentley said
traffic volumes to this type of center are not the same as those for
a Cub, Super Valu, etc. Pidcock said she did not think it was adequate.
Franzen referred to a letter from Bill Crawford, MN/DDT to Planning
Director Enger in which this issue was addressed.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Bentley, to close the Public
Hearing and to give 1st Reading to Ordinance No. 28-85, rezoning.
Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Bentley, to adopt Resolution No.
85-171, approving the preliminary plat of Crossroads Center for Vantage
Properties. Motion carried unanimously.
City Council Minutes -5- July 16, 1985
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Anderson, to direct Staff to
prepare a Developer's Agreement per Commission and Staff recommendations
and with the inclusion of a provision regarding tree replacement:
the developer will be responsible for 104 caliper inches of tree
replacement on the sites 5 or 7 (site 5 is the future office site;
site 7 is the future restaurant site.) Motion carried unanimously.
IV. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS NDS. 21341 - 21667
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Pidcock, to approve the Payment of
Claims Nos. 21341 - 21667. Roll call vote: Anderson, Bentley, Pidcock,
Redpath and Peterson voted "aye." Motion carried unanimously.
V. ORDINANCES & RESOLUTIONS
There were none.
VI. PETITIONS, REQUESTS & COMMUNICATIONS
A. Request from Hustad Development Corporation regarding the Hampton Inn
Project
Wally Hustad, Sr. asked the Council to reconsider its previous action
on this matter because there is a need for a variety in the type of
hotels in Eden Prairie. He noted that this site is an excellent one
for the type of hotel proposed. Hustad said he would like to present
new information to the Council based on a new study.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Bentley, to reconsider the Council's
previous action regarding the Hampton Inn Project.
Pidcock asked what new information was available. Hustad said he now
has available site-line studies as well as architectural renderings.
Bentley said he would ask that this be reconsidered at the August 6, 1985,
Meeting of the City Council.
Pidcock said she felt the proponent had been given ample opportunity
to make a presentation at the last meeting. Peterson said that he felt
any proponent who had to be heard at 1 a.m. was not given the best con-
sideration the Council could give.
VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried with Pidcock voting "no."
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Bentley, to request the proponent to
meet with Staff and to direct Staff to place this matter on the August
6, 1985, City Council Agenda with the appropriate notices to be sent

landfill. He expressed concern that someone should be inspecting
what is being dumped. Anderson asked if anyone had ever heard of
someone being tagged for illegal dumping. He suggested the City
be involved in the inspection process and request help to that
end from the County, Pollution Control Agency, and/or the State.
Anderson asked that Staff check into what the City of Medina is
doing about this.
MOTION: Anderson moved, seconded by Pidcock, to direct Staff
to see what procedures are used by the City of Medina regarding
landfill inspections and to review what might be done by the
City of Eden Prairie to accomplish inspections. Motion carried
unanimously.

Dear Carl:
Submitted herewith are two copies of the leaf recycling site lease agree-
ment for City approval. This agreement is similar in all respects to the
previous agreement except, the time limit has been extended to cover a
three year period with a 90 day notice termination provision.
Carl, I took the liberty of revising the original time limit clause in an
effort to eliminate what appears to be unnecessary administrative process-
ing. The 90 day termination clause should protect the City with respect
to the City's lease of the property from the Metropolitan Airports Com-
mission.
If this meets with City approval, will you please return all copies with
the required signatures along with a certification of council resolution.
Upon appropriate action by the County Board, one copy will be returned to
the City.
Very truly yours,

as follows:
1. Amendment of PUD Agreement.
A. The PUD Agreement is hereby amended to delete the
requirement that "A Street" be platted, dedicated and/or con-
( on Outlot E, CITY WEST SECOND ADDITION.
B. In the event Eden Prairie shall ever acquire a
parcel of land on the Honeywell Property on which to construct a
street in place of "A Street" (hereinafter the "Honeywell Street
Parcel"), the owner of said Outlot E shall thereupon dedicate to
Eden Prairie, by quit claim deed in recordable form, the 60 foot
wide parcel shown and legally described on Exhibit B attached

term "street" shall refer to any street improvements constructed
on the Access Parcel or the Honeywell Street Parcel.

following sums:

price of the Honeywell Street Parcel; and
(2) $17,095.00, representing one-half (1/2) of
the engineering and construction costs or the street in
accordance with Eden Prairie standards, including curb

RESOLUTION GIVING PRELIMINARY APPROVAL TO
A PROJECT UNDER THE MUNICIPAL INDUSTRIAL
DEVELOPMENT ACT, REFERRING THE PROPOSAL
TO THE MINNESOTA DEPARTivIENT OF ENERGY
AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT FOR APPROVAL,
AND AUTHORIZING PREPARATION OP NECESSARY
DOCUMENTS
WHEREAS, the welfare of the State of Minnesota (the "State") requires
active promotion, attraction, encouragement and development of economically
sound industry and commerce through governmental acts to prevent, so far as
possible,emergence of blighted lands and areas of chronic unemployment,and it is
the policy of the State to facilitate and encourage action by local government units
to prevent the economic deterioration of such areas to the point where the process
can be reversed only by total redevelopment through the use of local, state and
federal funds derived from taxation, with the attendant necessity of relocating
displaced persons and of duplicating public services in other areas;and
WHEREAS, technological change has caused a shift to a significant degree
in the area of opportunity for educated youth to processing, transporting,
marketing, service and other industries, and unless existing and related industries
are retained and new industries are developed to use the available resources of the
City of Eden Prairie (the "City"), a large part of the existing investment of the
community and of the State as a whole in educational and public service facilities
will be lost, and the movement of talented, educated personnel of mature age to
areas where their services may be effectively used and compensated and the
lessening attraction of persons and businesses from other areas for purposes of
industry, commerce and tourism will deprive the City and the State of the
economic and human resources needed as a base for providing governmental
services and facilities for the remaining population;and
WHEREAS, the increase in the amount and cost of governmental services
requires the need for more intensive development and use of land to provide an
adequate tax base to finance.these costs;and
WHEREAS, itr.-<?.• . ;n• i� a Minnesota general partnership to
be formed in which Robert M. Larsen will be a general partner (the"Developer"),
has advised this City Council that it desires to acquire land and construct thereon a
90,000 square foot,retail shopping facility(the"Project")in the City;and
WHEiti.AS, the existence of the Project in the City will contribute to more
intensive development and use of land to increase the tax base of the City and
overlapping taxing authorities and maintain and provide for an increase in
opportunities for employment for residents of the City, including economically
disadvantaged or unemployed individuals;and
1
WHEREAS, the City has been advised that conventional, commercial
financing to pay the capital costs of the Project is available at such costs of
borrowing that the Project would not be economically feasible without the
availability of industrial development bond financing;and
WHEREAS, this Council has been advised by the Developer that on the basis
of information submitted to them and their discussions with representatives of area
financial institutions and potential buyers of tax-exempt bonds, industrial
development revenue bonds of the city could be issued and sold upon favorable
rates and terms to finance the Project;and
WHEREAS, on the basis of information given the City to date, it appears
that it would be in the best interest of the City to issue its industrial development
revenue bonds under the provisions of Chapter 474, in an amount presently
estimated not to exceed $6,200,000 to finance in part the cost of the Project
currently estimated to be$6,465,000.

Project, and the bonds, when, as, and if issued,shall recite in substance that the
bonds, including interest thereon, are payable solely from the revenues received
from the Project and property pledged to the payment thereof, and shall not
constitute a debt of the City. The City hereby authorizes and directs the staff of
the City to seek an allocation pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section 474.18,
Subdivision 4, to issue such bonds. Such allocation is subject to the agreement of
the parties referred to above as to the terms of the bonds.
2. It is hereby found and determined that the Project would not be
undertaken but for the availability of industrial development bond financing.
3. In accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Section 474.01,Subdivision 7a
and Section 474.16, the Mayor of the City is hereby authorized and directed to

2. Loading areas not screened from public view.

5. Screening of rooftop mechanical units.
6. A landscape plan meeting the minimum caliper inch requirement per Code.
7. A loss of 2.37 acres of green area as depicted on the revised Planned Unit
Development.
Site Plan Revisions
There are five major site plan revisions to the project that are the result of a
different parking lot configuration and a different shape to the building, and which
include:
1. The setback area to parking along West 78th Street and Prairie Center Drive
has been increased from 50 to 70 feet; 20 feet would be designated as proof-
of-parking area.
2. A 20-foot wide planting island has been added in the center of the parking
lot to help break up the views of the cars and hard surface area.
3. The truck dock area has been completely enclosed with a roof, and partially
with a wall, such that the loading docks would not be visible from higher
elevations, and from on-grade elevations the loading docks would be in
shadow. In addition, there would be substantial berming and landscaping in
front of the loading areas to help downplay the warehouse portion of the
project.
4. A six-foot wide concrete sidewalk has been added along the southern side of
the parking area to allow people to walk from their vehicles with minimal
interference from auto circulation within the parking lot.
5. The southern building elevation has two jogs which helps break up the
overall flatness as originally proposed.
Architecture
An office appearance towards West 78th Street and Prairie Center Drive was a
condition of approval of the original Planned Unit Development Concept. Building
elevations have changed substantially such that the office appearance of the
structure has been wrapped completely around the southern building elevation,
providing for architectural continuity. Metal sunscreens have been eliminated from
the plan.
The rooftop mechanical equipment screening plan depicts mechanical units in a
central location on top of the building with a proposed bronze metal screen that is
similar to the approach used on the Factory Outlet Building.
Datasery 3 September 20, 1985
Primary exterior building materials will be facebrick and glass on all sides of the
building.
Landscaping
A total of 142 additional caliper inches have been added to this project, exceeding
the minimum caliper inch requirement for this project. A total of 619 caliper
inches would be required per Code. The increased setback area from 50 to 70 feet
along West 78th Street and Prairie Center Drive provides more green area and berm
heights have been increased. Although the proposed increase in berm height will
adequately screen the parking areas from West 78th Street and Prairie Center Drive,
it will not break up the views of the parking area from Highway #5, which is at a
higher elevation. Since the proposed berming along Prairie Center Drive is at a 6/1
slope, the height of the berm could be increased up to four feet by going to a 3/1
slope.
Concept Plan for the Outlot
The proponents have submitted two site usage plans for the balance of the property,
which is to be platted as an outlot. The site usage pl&i, which calls for an
expansion of the Datasery Building, continues the office character around the
southern and western sides of the building, and stays out of the wooded area to be
preserved along the south property line. However, the large parking area in front
of the building will require heavy landscaping to screen parking areas and to break
up the overall expanse of hard surface area. Phase II of Datasery is proposed at
100,000 square feet. The total gross building square footage would be 232,000
square feet, or 23,000 square feet more than the approved Planned Unit Development.
The net effect would be approximately 1.2 acres of additional hard surface area on-
site above the 1984 Planned Unit Development for 209,000 square feet of building as
compared with 2.37 acres of additional hard surface area with the 264,000 square
foot building approach. This site alternative eliminates the sidewalk connection to
Prairie Center Drive. Future development plans must provide this connection.
The alternative site usage plan calls for a 60,000 square foot office/warehouse
building on the outlot, which means that the total square footage for the entire
site would be 192,000 square feet; 17,000 square feet less than the approved Planned
Unit Development. This site usage plan does encroach more into the existing trees
on the southern property line and there will be problems with the screening of the
loading areas from Prairie Center Drive. Although the parking area is somewhat
smaller than the other site usage plan, it will still require substantial berming
and landscaping to screen the parking areas and break up the overall hard surfaced
area.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff would recommend approval of the request for Planned Unit Development Concept
Amendment on 17.4 acres, a Zoning District Change from Rural to I-2 Park on 10.1
acres, and a Preliminary Plat of 17.4 acres into one lot and one outlot, based upon
the recommendations in the Staff Report, dated September 20, 1985, and August 23,
1985, based upon revised plans, dated September 16, 1985, and subject to the
following conditions:
1. Prior to Council review, proponent shall:

to make the warehouse portions of the project similar to the office portions through
consistent use of window treatments, building materials, and other architectural
elements.
The attached Commission and Council minutes reflect attitudes toward the development
of this site as a transitional use between the industrial land uses (Rosemount
Engineering to the east of the site, and office, regional commercial, and flood
plain/open space uses to the south and west of the site). The minutes also indicate
that this site was a "keystone" entrance to the Major Center Area and the Purgatory
Creek Recreational Area, and because of this, development should be of the highest
quality and reflect an office character.
Site Plan
The site plan depicts the construction of a 132,000 square foot building with a two-
story office portion facing towards Prairie Center Drive, and a one-story, 30.5 foot
high, warehouse portion behind the office portion of the project, adjacent to
Rosemount Engineering. The building as proposed is 50% office. Expansion plans
would double the size of the building to 264,000 square feet. Staff estimates that
approximately 2.37 additional acres (14%) of green space, as depicted on the
approved PUD, would be converted into hard surface area (building and parking). The
expansion plans will also encroach into the wooded area along the south property
line, which was to be preserved as a condition of PUD approval. The site is being
developed at a Floor Area Ratio of 0.32. For I-2 Park zoning, the Code would allow
up to a 0.3 Floor Area Ratio for a one-story building, and a 0.5 Floor Area Ratio
for a two-story building. Building and parking areas meet minimum setback
requirements. A total of 448 parking spaces are provided on-site, which includes 42
proof-of-parking spaces. The Code would require the provision of 448 parking spaces
based on 66,000 square feet of office at five spaces per 1,000; 32,000 square feet
of warehouse at 1 space per 1,000; and, 34,000 square feet of assembly at three
spaces per 1,000.
Access to this site will be by driveway off West 78th Street and Prairie Center
Drive. The access on West 78th Street aligns with an existing median cut, ana the
access on Prairie Center Drive is setback approximately 400 feet from the
intersection of West 78th Street and Prairie Center Drive. Due to the amount of
berming and landscaping of the driveway entrance on West 78th Street, Staff expects
there will be sight vision distance problems.
Grading
Overall site grading can he described as extensive. The majority of this site has
been previously graded, and some of the material was used for contructinn of Prairie
Center Drive. Conditions of approval for the PUD required that the tree stand and
land farm along the southern side of the property he retained. The existing grading
plan does this; however, the future building and parking expansion wiil encroach
into this wooded area and result in tree loss. Any future development of the
property to the south will require the submittal of a detailed tree inventory for
further review and analysis of the proposed site plan impacts.
Grading on the site will result in extensive cuts up to 27 feet. The knoll along
the nerthwestern portion of the site will he removed, providing a window into this
site frni Prairie Center Drive, West 78th Street, and iliqhwav #5, making this site
very visible. Cuts on the eastern portion of the site will he up to 10 feet;
l
Datasery 3 August 23, 1985
however, the building is tucked into the hillside and makes use of an existing land
form as a physical transition between Rosemount Engineering and this site.
Proposed grading along West 78th Street from the driveway entrance easterly, will
remove almost ail of the existing natural vegetation. The vegetation might be
described as scrub vegetation consisting of elm and box elder; however, the land
form is significant.
Architecture
Conditions of approval for the Prairie Center Business Park PUD included continuity
of building materials and exterior treatment, such that the views of the project
from the south and west would be office in appearance. The building, as proposed,
is not consistent with the guidelines approved with the PUD. The south elevation
has an office appearance for the west half of the building; however, the warehouse
portion, constructed out of precast concrete panel and a different window design,
does not create architectural continuity and contributes to a warehouse appearance
of the building. The proponents contend that since the Oatasery project involves
two phases, the use of tip-up concrete panels is temporary in nature until such time
that the second half of the building is completed. While this makes sense
economically, there is no guarantee as to the time frame for completion of the
second phase, or whether the second phase would be built at all. The proponents
also contend that proposed grading and berming constructed along Prairie Center
Drive will block sight lines into the project. This will only be valid until the
development of the remaining parcel takes place, when the berm height would be
lowered to accommodate development, and the warehouse portion of the project would
be visible from Prairie Center Drive.
The west building elevation facing Prairie Center Drive and Highway #5, is office-
like in character for a portion of the building; however, both the overhead doors
and on-grade doors detract from this appearance and contribute to the warehouse look
of the project. The proponents have indicated to Staff that at least ten semi-
trucks per day would enter and exit this site. Since only three loading bays are
proposed, at some point, trucks would be parked beyond the dock area, meaning that a
larger area would require screening. Conditions of the PUD indicated that the
overhead doors would not be visible from the public roads. City Ordinance requires
that the overhead doors, loading and maneuvering areas be screened. The plans do
not indicate screening of overhead doors, or the loading areas.
Only schematic plans for the location of rooftop mechanical units have been
submitted for review. Although the sight lines indicate, from adjacent and lower
roadways, that mechanical units would he screened from view, the plan does not take
into consideration views from higher elevations, or from adjacent land uses. Staff
also expects that the rooftop mechanical units would be visible from Highway #5.
Since the area of the roof is extensive, it will be necessary that mechanical units
be grouped into the tightest area possible. This would be similar to the rooftop
• screening plan for the Factory Outlot.
Landscaping
The proposed landscape plan is not in compliance with City Coda for the number of
caliper inrhos haled upon the sine of the building. Since the warehouse portion is
in exco;s of 20 foot in height, the caliper inch requirxeent for that portion of the
project would he double. According to City Code, a total of 619 caliper inches
would tw required. Ow landscape plan provides for 509 caliper inches.
Datasery 4 August 23, 1985
Proposed berming and plantings along Prairie Center Drive do not screen parking
. areas. In addition, since the natural ridge line along West 78th Street will be cut
up to 24 feet, the large parking area becomes visible from Highway #5. Considering
the size of the hard surface area and minimal amount of planting islands proposed,
perhaps the I-5 zoning district would be more appropriate for this property,
requiring 75-foot setbacks within which large berming and plant materials can occur
to better break up'the view of the hard surface area.
Utilities
Sewer and water service can be provided to this site by connection to existing water
lines and sanitary sewer lines within the right-of-way for Prairie Center Drive.
Storm water run-off is proposed to sheet drain across the parking lot into catch
basins, from which water will travel through underground storm sewer pipes in a
northerly direction to existing 30-inch and 15-inch storm sewer lines in West 78th
Street.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
The Staff Report indicates there are a number of areas in which the current
submittal is not consistent with the PUD, including architectural and continuity of
building materials, screening of loading areas, and office appearance towards
Prairie Center Drive. In addition, the site plan is not in compliance with City
Ordinance for screening of parking areas from adjacent roadways, the total caliper
inch requirement, and screening of rooftop mechanical units. Since the site is
envisioned as a Corporate Headquarters site, it may be more appropriate to consider
an I-5 zoning for the property as opposed to I-2, since the I-5 zoning district is
generally reserved for large scale single users. The advantage to the I-5 district
is that there are greater setback areas required to building and parking which would
allow for more land area in which to provide substantial berming and heavy
landscaping.
Due to the inconsistency with the approved PUD, development guidelines (agreed to by
Opus), and a site plan, which is not in compliance with regulations of the City
Code, one alternative action for the Commission to consider would be to return the
development plans to the proponent to allow them the opportunity to revise the site
plan in accordance with the approved PUD, current zoning requirements, other
recommendations as outlined in the Staff Report, and Commission concerns as well.
Another option available to the Planning Commission, if it is determined that the
project is not consistent with the PUP and does not represent the highest and best
use of the property, since it is a "keystone" entrance site to the Major Center
Area, would be to recommend denial of the project as submitted.

PRAIRIE CENTER BUSINESS PARK - EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA
Proposed Design Guidelines
1. Brick or other quality architectural grade materials permitted, (excluding
concrete panel, decorative concrete block or industrial metal panel).
2. Docks are to be enclosed, recessed, covered or otherwise architecturally
screened with building or land forms, so as not to allow truck docks to be
visible from public views.
3. Stepped buildings which conform to existing contours of two or three stories
in height are possible in this development.
4. The buildings on Parcels B and C should be built to appear as office structures.
This may be done in a variety of ways including one or more of the following:
a) Enveloping the warehouse use with actual office space on the south and
west sides.
b) Designing the warehouse portion of the building similarly to the office
portion through the consistent use of window treatments, building
materials, and other architectural elements.
c) Above grade warehouse heights could be made consistent with office
space heights.
d) The window area of the south and west faces of the buildings should be
• at lease twenty-five percent (25%) of those elevations.
5. The amount of office in the project total would not be less than fifty
percent (50%). A higher percentage of industrial space may be placed on •
Parcel A. Parcels R and C should contain no more than forty percent (40%)
warehousing or manufacturing.
6. Underground or deck parking is not feasible for the development as now
anticipated. This, however, does not preclude that possibility if the space
needs or use requirements of the tenant or owner allow.
7. Solar design or earth sheltering may he used if feasible and if consistent
with earlier stated design guidelines.
• 8. The development will he highly landscaped with emphasis along roadways, parking
areas, and around buildings. The wooded slope on the southern part of the site
will be preserved. liermi_ng and ]andforms will be used as needed to create
a natural looking setting.

Planning Commission Minutes 5 January 23, 1984
C. PRAIRIE CENTER BUSINESS PARK, by Opus Corporation. Request
for Planned Unit Uevelopment Concept review for 17.4 acres
for three office/warehouse buildings. Location: Southeast
quadrant of West 78th Street and Prairie Center Drive. A
public hearing.
Ms. Michelle Foster, Opus Corporation, reviewed the request for
development with the Commission. She stated that, while Opus
realized that the area should be a. "transitional" development
between the industrial use to the east and- the Purgatory Creek
recreational area to the west, the idea of maintaining the uses as
• strictly office, as opposed to a mix of office'and industrial, was
not an option for Opus. She suggested changes to the development
framework as proposed by the Staff Report and submitted a copy of
the proposed changes to the Commission.
Planner Enger reviewed the recommendations of the Staff report
evaluating the project. He stated that, compared to the development
framework suggested by the Staff in the Staff Report, the proposed
framework by Opus did nothing more for this area than the basic
• requirements of the I-2 Park district of the City Code. Planner
Enonr stated that *his area needed to be dealt with as a transition
area and :.hat .he m.rt important factor involved . the proper
development of this parcel would be the character of the product as
an office development.
Planner Enger pointed out that the examples of buildings offered by
• Opus to the Staff and Commission would meet the criteria suggested
by the Staff Report, and, therefore, would be appropriate for use as
a development framework for this transitional area.
Schuck questioned why Opus would not commit to the development
framework suggested by the Staff, even though it was their intent,
by the examples given, to build within such a framework. Ms. Foster
stated that she understood the criteria to be required, not
suggested, by the Staff.
Hallett stated that he agreed with Schuck, and stated that he felt
this location was a key to the development of this entire area. As
a cornerstone within the City to the Major Center Area, he stated
that he felt the image of the site should be high and should take
advantage of the future recreation area to the west.
Mr. Mark Anderson, Real Estate division of Opus, stated that they
would like to maintain flexibility within the development as there
were no known clients for the property at this time.
1•ir. Johathan 'Miller, architect for the proponent, stated that he did
not feel there that r:!rch difference between tha intent of the
Opur, irrol a rl tlovelepownt framwork and the Staff Report reco :asnded
dov b rr..,nt tram,,wurk. He felt that Opus could work with Staff to
mitigate any differences.
Mr. John l.unr,n, reprowntinq EcoJCr,, Inc., owners of the property,
Planning Commission Minutes 6 January 23, 1984
stated that they had operated on the basis that the site was
industrial. He stated that they were concerned about the type of
product built on this property, too, as Feeders was also the owner
of the property to the west. •
• Marhula stated that he felt the site plan shown by the developer was
not appropriate according to the statements that had been made at
the meeting.
Ms. Foster stated that as long as the items within the Staff Report
were considered suggestions, or guidelines, instead 'of rigid
critera, then Opus would have no difficulty in working within such
guidelines.
Acting Chairman Gartner asked for questions and comments from
members of the audience. There were none. •

City Council Minutes ' -3- F nary 21, 1984
Penzel questioned the grading plan referred to by roster. Director of Public
) ( Works Dietz said there was no clear answer as to what had been previously
approved by the Council -- whether a final or interim grading plan had
been approved. The interim grading plan contemplated removal of 200,000
cubic yards of material of which the City needed the majority; the City
• Council had approved of this proposal. Dietz indicated the City has
• removed 150,000 cubic yards already -- this is being used to surcharge
Technology Drive -- and another 50,000 cubic yards is still needed. This
• • will.bring the total to 200,000 cubic yards. However, 50,000 - 110,000
cubic yards could still be generated off that site and still fall within
the interim grading plan. He indicated that what Opus is asking for is
within the terns of what had been approved, but something which he was not
comfortable with approving administratively. Penzel asked where this
additional material would go. Dietz said on the west side of Prairie Center
Drive; it would remove most of the material which needs to be removed, but
it would not make the site "site ready".
Penzel asked what the development schedule is. Foster said it would be over

Corporation was averse to building buildings over two stories. Foster said
they are aiming at a market that needs and wants two or three story buildings;
•she noted that the Opus II project has buildings which appear to be office
buildings rather than industrial.
•
Bentley said he felt this site was the "keystone entrance" to the Major Center
4 Area and the Purgatory Creek Recreational Area and should be reviewed in terms
of what is the highest and best use for this property. He said he felt this
• would indicate office rather than industrial usage. He also noted he would
not like to see any additional grading on the site. Redpath concurred. •
Tangen asked what the condition of the site would be after the grading has
been done. Dietz said it would be made to look as natural as possible.
Redpath asked what type of use was intended in these buildings. Foster said
she thought the intention was to fill the sites with those who would use them
. as their coporate headquarters and would be at that particular location for
a number of years. She noted it would be high quality industrial use. Foster
said if the percentage of office use is a question, Opus might be able to come
up with something which would offer n:are office and less industrial space.
She indicated that if an entirely office use was intended then Opus night not
be interested in this site. She said they are willing to talk about what per-
centage should be used for office, but that they arc talking about a preder:rinac
high quality industrial use.
Anderson said he did not think the issue of phasing had been adequately address:
Penzel suggested this be reviewed further by Staff and then curve back to the
Council.
MOTION: Bedpan roved, seconded by Tangen, to refer this to Staff for further
review and continuo tho Public Mooriop to March 6, 19R1. The Council's cencrn,
are. the transi;ienal use of the northeast parcel, the desire to hove pure
office: space available on this site, and buildings should he of two or more
stories. Motion carried una nie'ously.
The consensus of the Council was to proceed with the interior grading plan.

Planning Commission Minutes 2 September 23, 1985
This item was continued from the August 26, and September 9, 1985, Planning
Commission meetings in order to allow the proponents the opportunity to
revise the plans in accordance with the approved design guidelines for the
Prairie Center Business Park Planned Unit Development Concept.
Staff had met with the Developer several times since the last Planning
Commission meeting and mitigated all the technical problems raised by the
Commission and in the Staff Report of August 23, 1985.
Planner Franzen reviewed the findings and recommendations of the Staff
Report evaluating the revised request. With respect to the proposed
expansion of the development to the south, Planner Franzen noted that Staff
was most comfortable with the alternative whereby DataSery would expand its
own facility in a "mirror image" to the south. The other alternative showed
another building for a different use, and indicated encroachment into the
treed area to the southeast. The second alternative also represented less
total square footage of structure on the site, but a similar structural
appearance to the building shown in Phase I.
Mr. Bob Worthington, representing Opus Corporation, briefly reviewed
additional changes made to the plan since the last Planning Commission
meeting.
Acting Chairman Hallett asked for comments and questions from members of the
audience. There were none.
MOTION 1:
Motion was made by Gartner, seconded by Johannes, to close the public
hearing.

MOTION 2:

one lot and one outlot for construction of an office/warehouse
building. Location: Southeast corner of West 78th Street and
Prairie Center Drive. A continued public hearing.
Mr. Bob Worthington, Opus Corporation, reviewed the revised plans with the
Commission. Changes had been made responsive to the Commission and Staff
concerns, including the following: The loading dock area was completely
enclosed; the south wall indicated a different architectural treatment
involving jogs in the building, brick as the exterior material, and window
bands similar to the office portion of the structure; landscaping and
i
Planning Commission Minutes 6 September 9, 1985
screening had been increased along the road frontages by placing "proof-of-
parking" areas along the perimeter of the site and landscaping within those
areas, which also had the effect of increasing the front setbacks from 50
ft. to 69 ft.; a 20 ft. wide, bermed and planted island had been added to
the parking lot; and mechanical equipment would be grouped and screened with
architecturally compatible material.
It was also noted by Mr. Worthington that proponents intended to preserve
the wooded area along the south and southeast portions of the property. He
added that, at the next meeting, proponents would be prepared to show the
Commission how the expansion of the structure would be located on the
remainder of the site and, in the event that the DataSery building was not
expanded, how another building for another user would work on the site.
Mr. Worthington stated that proponents did not want Commission action at
this meeting; however, they would want to have any additional comments and
direction the Commission may have prior to requesting a Commission
recommendation at the next meeting.
Johannes asked if the band of windows would be continued across the south
side of the structure in order to continue the office-like appearance of the
structure to the warehouse portion of the structure. Mr. Worthington
acknowledged that this would be done.
( Chairman Schuck stated that he preferred the jogs which had been introduced
to the south side of the structure. He added that he would prefer to see a
door on the loading dock area. Chairman Schuck stated that the revised
plans appeared to be more in keeping with the guidelines which had been
established and approved for the Prairie Center Business Park.
Johannes asked if the entryway to the loading docks would be sufficiently
screened by the landscaping proposed. Planner Enger explained that the area
would likely be well screened based on the locations of the plant materials
on the site. He stated that Staff would review this in greater detail upon
receipt of the revised landscape plan from the proponent.
Hallett asked if it would be possible to include a band of windows along the
north side of the structure as well. He added that he concurred with
Chairman Schuck that the redesigned project was more in keeping with the
guidelines for the Prairie Center Business Park.
Hallett asked if the berms along the front yards of the property would
remain in the event that the proof-of-parking areas were needed along the
perimeter of the site. Planner Enger explained that the effectiveness of
the berms would remain and that if the proof-of-parking areas were needed,
there would likely be "internal" retaining walls installed against the
berms, instead.
Marhula stated that he was satisfied with the manner in which the loading
dock was now being treated. He noted that there had been a history of the
sensitivity of this site to grading work, adding that there were cuts
proposed of up to 30 ft. He asked that proponents be aware of this in the
construction of this project on the property.
•
Planning Commission Minutes 7 September 9, 1985
Marhula encouraged proponents to present detailed plans of the future plans
for the south portion of the property as action on the north portion may be
dependent upon future plans for the south portion. Mr. Worthington stated
that these plans would be available at the next Planning Commission meeting.
Marhula stated that he concurred in the concerns of Hallett regarding the
proof-of-parking areas of the site. He also asked if there were any
internal sidewalks planned in the area of the parking lot in order to
provide for safety of pedestrians in this area. Mr. Worthington stated that
this would be added to the plans and shown in greater detail at the next
•
Planning Commission meeting.
MOTION:
Motion was made by Gartner, seconded by Hallett, to continue this item to
the September 23, 1985, Planning Commission meeting to allow proponents
opportunity to complete revisions to their plans.

Re: Revenue Bond Fees to the City of Eden Prairie
Evergreen Properties Project
Eden Prairie, MN
Dear Mr. Franc:
Pursuant to our discussion of Tuesday, October 8, 1985. we are request-
ing that the City does not charge the 1/8 of 1% fee for our Evergreen
Properties Project. At the time we applied to the city on April 3,
1985, we were not told of any Revenue Bond Fee to the City of Eden
Prairie. On approximatley April 12th, Brigga and Morgan delivered to
you the preliminary documents and although it wea revised on April
29th, we did expect the project to go to the City Council on approxi
mutely May 7, 1985. In my review of the June 4th final resolution, I
have now become aware of a City Renvenue Bond Fee in the amount of 1/8
of 1% annually to be peid to the City. Since such a fee and policy was
not in effect at the time of our application, we do feel it is proper
to charge such a fee at this time. As you may recall, you requested
that the City postpone our preliminary resolution e pproval to June 4th
so you could put all the tax exempt requests on the agenda for June
4th. We cooperated with you in this request. However, that does not
mean that we agreed to pay a 1/8 of 1% fee annually just because the
City Council held the meeting on June 4, 1985.
Mr. Frane, we do not have anyproblem paying 1/8 of i% fee on any
future deals, however, as I have mentioned above, we did not know about
this fee and st the time of our application and at the time it was
supposed to go to the City Council there was no revenue bond fee in
Eden Prairie. Could you please review this matter and get back to us
shortly. We appreciate your cooperation.

MEMDRANDUM
TD: Mayor, City Council and Planning Commission
FROM: Steve Durham, Assistant Planner
THRDUGH: Chris Enger, Director of Planning
DATE: October 1, 1985
REGARDING: PROPDSED SITE FOR NDRMANDALE RACQUET AND TENNIS CLUB
REQUEST: For a 17D,ODD square foot racquet and tennis club to be considered
as a "Community Commercial" use in the zoning district, rather than
a "Regional Commercial District".
Issue
The item for discussion is not a land use issue. The issue at hand has only to do
with whether the characteristics of a racquet and tennis club match the generally
described characteristics of the Community Commercial Zoning District, or if they
are better described by the Regional Commercial Service Zoning District.
Background
Normandale Tennis Clubs (NTC), Incorporated, represented by their attorney, Larkin,
Hoffman, Daly & Lindgren, Ltd., applied for an appeal of a Staff interpretation of
the City Code, to the Board of Adjustments and Appeals at the September 12, 1985
meeting.
Because of the regional service draw created by the size of the racquet and tennis
club, the Staff considered it as a Regional Commercial use and not consistent with a
Community Commercial Zoning District.
A Staff Report dated September 6, 19B5, to the Board of Appeals, represented the
Staff's interpretation of the City Code and intended use for the Community
Commercial and Regional Commercial land use. (Note Exhibit A) The Board, after
reviewing the Staff Report, submitted materials by the applicant and presentation by
NTC, determined the proposed Racquet and Swim Club an appropriate use in a Community
Commercial Zoning District.
City Council has elected to review the Roard of Appeals and Adjustments deision as
provided for in the City Code.
Site Review
NTC proposes to construct a 170,000 square foot racquet and swim club on
approximately 9+ acres at 6233 Baker Road. The property is currently guided for a
Community Commercial use and is zoned Community-Commercial. A wholesale nursery
currently exists on the property. Indoor tennis courts will occupy approximately
79,000 square feet in a building separate from the clubhouse. The clubhouse will be
approximately 85,000 square feet. A detailed site plan, including building
elevations, landscape/screening plan, and grading plan has not been submitted.
Exterior materials have not been identified.
City Code
The City has five established commercial zoning districts: Neighorhood Commercial,
Community Commercial, Regional Commercial, Regional Service, and Highway Commercial
Districts.
The special purpose of a Community Commercial District is to: 1) "Provide
appropriately located areas for retail stores, offices, and personal service
establishments patronized primarily by residents of the immediate community area.
2) To permit development of community shopping centers and related residential uses
of the size, and in the appropriate locations, shown on the Guide Plan, according to
standards that minimize adverse impact on adjoining residential uses."
Permitted uses in Commercial Zoning Districts include all direct retail sales to
users of goods and services, conducted within structures and accessory
uses.Specifically, the Commercial-Regional Service uses are limited to sales and
service operations which require relatively large sites, attract little or no
pedestrian traffic, and are not typically found in shopping center structures. The
C-Reg-Ser definition characterizes the NTC use.
Basis for Staff Determination
The Guide Plan defines Community commercial with the following definition:
Community Commercial is intended to meet the day-to-day shopping needs of residents
of the City and would include the full range of retail shops and services, at a
scale smaller than a regional center and would range in size from 100,000 to 20D,0D0
square feet of retail or service sales area.
Eden Prairie has established four Community Commercial locations, two of which are
developed. Prairie Village Mall and Preserve Mall each have approximately 80,0D0
square feet and provide a variety of retail stores, including supermarket, hardware
store, bank facilities, vidio cassette store, restaurants, drug stores, and various
retail service stores.
Staff considers a health club a personal service establishment, which is permitted
in all three Commercial Zoning Districts, provided it is proportional to and
consistant with the special purpose of the designated zoning. The proposed NTC
utilizes the entire nine acre site, which is intended for an assortment of retail
and personal service establishments, therefore, inconsistent with the Community
Commercial Zoning District.
Ramifications
1) Developing the total nine acre site for a racquet and swim club will set a
precedent for other regional type uses in designated Community Commercial
site. For example, a bowling alley, roller skating rink or warehouse food
store could locate in Community Commercial District. The above mentioned
uses would be considered Regional Commercial in service area. The
distinction between the Regional Commercial and Community Commercial Zoning
District is lost, if Regional Commercial use is permitted in a Community
Commercial District.
I
2) By dedicating the entire nine acre site to a health club facility, the City
loses the opportunity for a retail and personal service establishment for 11
the immediate community area. Although the health club will provide fitness
related services, it will not provide such services as restaurant, dry
cleaner, super market, daycare center, hardware store, gas station, or other
related retail services to the immediate community area. The facility will
serve the entire community and portions of surrounding communities.
As stated earlier, two Community Commercial sites are developed in Eden
Prairie serving a population of 25,000+. Removing this Community Commercial
site from assorted retail/service establishments will put increased pressure
on the exiting C-Comm centers, which when constructed, serviced a population
of approximtely 15,00D.
The service area for the NTC of this size is approximately 10 miles, and is
tied into a regional sports club system. Community Commercial sites, as
identified on the Guide Plan, are intended to serve approximately a 3 mile
radius.
3) Permitting the NTC on the site will not require Planning Commission or City
Council site plan review. Provided NTC meets all City Code requirements,
any type of structure may be erected. This may include the use of precast
concrete panels or prefinished metal wall units. The City loses all
architectural control for the site.
If the site were to develop as a traditional Community Commercial Zoning
District, the site would require lot subdivision, which would necessitate
Planning Commission and City Council review. The City could maintain site
plan review and architectural control for the entire nine acre parcel.
4) Major pressure from all different types of Regional Commercial uses,
locating in Community and Neighborhood Commercial Districts, will arise from
land owners and developers, if the Code is interpreted to permit NTC in the
C-Comm District.
Conclusion/Recommendaton
Although the racquet and tennis club would be of service and an asset, not only to
Eden Prairie, but surrounding communities as well, it does not fit the purposes or
characteristics of the Community Commercial Zoning District and cannot be allowed on
this site without a rezoning and reguiding to Regional Commercial.
City Council may wish to consider the following recommendation:
1) Reverse the Board of Adjustments and Appeals' interpretation,
allowing the NTC to locate within a Community Commercial Zoning
District. Findings include: NTC, proposal for the total nine acre
site is inconsistent with the Community Commercial Guide Plan and
zoning definition.

J. Request #85-37, submitted by Larkin, Hoffman, Daly & Lindgren,
for property located at 6231 Baker Road. The request is for an
interpretation of City Code, Chapter 11, Section 11.25,
Subdivision 1, B, to permit the construction of a Racquet and
Swim Club within a Community Commercial Zoning District .
(Code permits retail stores, offices, and personal service
establishments to be patronized primarily by residents of the
immediate community area in Community Commercial Zoning District.)
Background - The City Code specifically lists special purpose for
Community Commercial and Regional Commercial Zoning Districts:
City Code identifies special purpose of the C-COM Community
Commercial District to: •
1. To provide appropriately located areas for retail stores,
offices, and personal service establishments patronized
primarily by residents of the immediate community area.
2. To permit development of community shopping centers and
related residential uses of the size and in the appropriate
locations shown on the Guide Plan, according to standards
that minimize adverse impact on adjoining residential uses.
City Code identifies special purpose of the C-REG Regional
Commercial District to:
1. To provide a large site at an appropriate location for a
major shopping center which serves a wider region than the
City itself consistent with the intent of the Metropolitan
Guide Plan.
2. To ensure that a major center will be developed in accord
with high standards of site planning, architecture, and
landscape design."
Key areas in each district's purposes have been underlined.
Staff Review -
The City's Comprehensive Guide Plan designated 4 Community
Commercial areas. These are:
Corner of Anderson Lakes Parkway and County Road 18, the
Preserve Village Center.
Corner of County Road 4 and T.H. 5, the Prairie Village
Mall.
Corner of Baker Road and West 62nd Street, unbuilt todate.
County Road 1, near future Dell Road, unbuilt todate.
These 4 areas were designated to serve different sections of the
City's residential areas. The C-Com areas are to provide community
scale services, i.e., quick stop or full size grocery, cleaners,
hair salons, auto gas and service stations, drug stores, etc..
EXHIBIT A
•
- 26 -
The C-Com area designated at Baker and W. 62nd Street will serve
residents approximately 2 miles around the site. This will provide
services to approximately 4,500 people today, approximately 6,853
people, as estimated in our 1990 population forecast, and 9,000
people, as estimated in our 2,000 population forecast. A community
commercial service center ranges in square feet from approximately
80,000 square feet to 200,000 square feet, and provides a variety of
services to a community.
A single use facility, as proposed by Normandale Tennis Center,
would not provide the range of personal services needed by the
residents of the area. •
The International Racquet and Sports Association estimates that a
150,000 square foot + facility would have a draw area of 5-6 miles
or 10-12 minute drive radius. This could mean NTC would serve
Minnetonka, Edina, and Bloomington, besides Eden Prairie.
It is unlikely a C-Com facility on this site would attract
individuals from Edina or Bloomington.
Recommendations -
Staff finds that the Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc. proposed
racquet and swim club is not a permitted use within the Community
Commercial District and recommends denial of the request for the
following reasons:
(. 1. The NTC use is inconsistent with the Comprehensive
Guide Plan elements which outlines Community
Commercial as, —"intended to meet the day-to-day
shopping needs of residents of the City and would
include the full range of retail shops and services
at a scale smaller than a regional center...."
2. The NTC use as proposed, is inconsistent with the
City's Code which outlines special purposes of C-Com
as "....retail stores, offices, and personal service
establishments patronized primarily by residents of
the immediate community area."
3. No undue hardship has been demonstrated by the
applicant.
4. A reasonable use of the land exists.
5. The granting of such an appeal is not in keeping
with the intent of the Code.

Re: Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc.
Appeal from Planning Staff Determination
Dear Board Members:
This letter supplements the application submitted by Normandale Tennis
Centers, Inc. (NTC) appealing to the Board of Appeals and Adjustments a '
decision made by the City's planning staff. The appeal is from staff's
determination that a proposed NTC Racquet and Swim Club is not an allowable
use within the Community Commercial zoning district.
NTC has entered into an agreement to purchase approximately ten acres of
property located at 6233 Baker Road (the Property). The Property is
immediately adjacent to and southwest of the intersection of Interstate
Highway 494 and the Crosstown Highway Extension. The Property is currently
designated in the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan for Community Commercial
uses. The bulk of the Property is zoned Community Commercial consistent
with the land use designation.
NTC is in the business of developing and operating racquet and swim clubs.
They have purchased the Property for the purpose of constructing a racquet
and swim club (the Club) in the City of Eden Prairie. The Club will contain
five outdoor and twelve indoor tennis courts; nine racquetball and squash
courts; an indoor gymnasium; an indoor pool; an indoor running track; a
Nautilis training room; a weight room; other related fitness facilities;
locker rooms; a small pro shop for the sale of sports equipment and clothing;
and a small "juice bar" serving snacks and juices. There will be no
restaurant facilities and no liquor served in the Club.

Eden Prairie Board of Appeals

Page 2
The indoor tennis courts will occupy approximately 79,000 square feet of
space in a permanent building. The balance of the facilities will be
located in a clubhouse of approximately 85,000 square feet. The tennis
building, the clubhouse and the walkways between them will occupy a total
of approximately 170,000 square feet. NTC operates ten Racquet and Swim
Clubs in the Metropolitan area. Suburban clubs similar in size to the
Club proposed for Eden Prairie generate approximately 500 to 900 member
visits per day during the peak season. Use during the summer is
considerably less.
The Eden Prairie Zoning Ordinance establishes three basic commercial
zoning districts: Neighborhood Commercial, Community Commercial and
Regional Commercial. The special purposes of the Community Commercial
district are set forth as:
1. To provide appropriately located areas for retail stores,
offices, and personal service establishments patronized
primarily by residents of the immediate community area.
(Emphasis added)
2. To permit development of community shopping centers and
related residential uses of the size and in the appropriate
locations shown on the guide plan, according to standards
that minimize adverse impact on adjoining residential uses.
The purposes of the Regional Commercial district are set forth as:
1. To provide a large site at an appropriate location for a
major shopping center which serves a wider region than the
City itself consistent with the intent of the Metropolitan
Guide Plan.
2. To ensure that a major center will be developed in accord
with high standards of site planning, architecture and
landscape design.
3. To minimize the adverse effect of major commercial facilities
on nearby dwellings.
The Club is clearly not of a scale and intensity of use which would
require Regional Commercial zoning. However, planning staff has made
the decision that the Club is not an allowable use in Community Commercial
district because it will attract members from a larger area than the
Eden Prairie Community and because of the size of the proposed structures.
NTC, although reluctant to challenge City staff, is appealing this
decision because they feel the proposed tennis center is a community use
and will be a benefit to the Eden Prairie community.

City staff's primary reason for opposing a tennis club use in the Community
Commercial District is their perception that it will not be "patronized
primarily by residents of the immediate community area". NTC operates
ten racquet and swim clubs in the Metropolitan Twin Cities area. Each of
these clubs is open to all members of any club. The Eden Prairie club
will, therefore, be open and available for use by any member of all ten
clubs. However, it has been NTC's experience that each club attracts
primarily members who live or work within ten minutes of the Club. Most
tennis players and club members will not travel more than ten minutes
each way to play an hour's worth of racquetball or tennis. For this
reason, NTC's goal in locating its existing clubs and in the placement
of future clubs has been to place them approximately ten minutes apart
throughout the Metropolitan area. it is true that the ten minute travel
time radius around the Club proposed for Eden Prairie will include
portions of Minnetonka and Edina as well as Eden Prairie. However, any
commercial use on this Property, which is located on the City's border
with Minnetonka, will be patronized by residents of Minnetonka and Edina
as well as Eden Prairie. NTC expects that this Club, like NTC's other
suburban clubs, will be patronized primarily by members from the
surrounding community and neighboring areas.
City staff's second objection to the proposed Club is related to
the size of the tennis facility and clubhouse. As noted above, the Club
will be approximately 170,000 square feet in size including the indoor
tennis facility, the clubhouse and walkways between the two structures.
City staff has indicated they do not feel a structure of this size is
appropriate in the Community Commercial district. However, the Comprehensive
Guide Plan specifically states that areas designated for Community
Commercial development are intended for uses which would range in size
from 100,000 to 200,000 square feet of retail or service sales area. The
Club falls well within this guideline and complies with all site coverage,
floor area ratio, and other performance standards for the Community
Commercial zoning district.
More important than the size of the Club, however, is the intensity
of use which it represents. The second special purpose of the Community
Commercial zoning district specifically states that it is the purpose
of this district to minimize adverse impact on adjoining residential uses.
NTC expects the Club to generate somewhere between 500 and 900 member
visits per day during the peak, winter season. Visits to the Club will
be approximately one-half of that during the summer months. The maximum 1.
number of total trips to and from the Club during the peak season will,
therefore, be in the neighborhood of 1500. This is considerably less than
would be generated by virtually any other allowable, permitted use in the
LARKIN, I-HOFFM AN, DALY & LINDGREN. LTD.

Community Commercial zoning district. For instance, a small to medium
size fast food restaurant which would occupy no more space than a single
indoor tennis court could easily generate three times more traffic than
the entire club proposed for the Property. A single small convenience
store of the same size could generate over twice the traffic of the Club.
Combining these two uses with a small to medium size shopping center,
all as allowed in the Community Commercial district, would result in
the Property generating many times the traffic which will be generated
by the proposed Racquet and Swim Club. In addition to the extra traffic,
restaurant, shopping or other commercial use of the Property will
certainly result in noise, litter and other nuisance problems which will
not occur with a first class Racquet and Swim Club.
The proposed Club is a very low intensity use of this ten acre site
which, by its nature, minimizes adverse impact on neighboring residential
uses. The City Zoning Ordinance has created the Community Commercial
district to allow commercial development in areas outside the City's major
center area, but to restrict that development to uses which minimize impact
on adjoining residential development. The Racquet and Swim Club proposed
by NTC is an ideal use for the Community Commercial district. it is a
very low intensity use which will generate a minimum amount of traffic
and no disruption for its neighbors.
Just as importantly, the proposed Racquet and Swim Club will provide a
recreational facility and service which will be of great benefit to the
Community and the area surrounding the Club. There is a demonstrated need
for this type of a facility in the Eden Prairie Community and NTC is
anxious to fill this need. NTC has investigated a number of potential
locations in Eden Prairie, including several suggested by City staff.
However, none of the available alternative sites meet NTC's minimum
site selection criteria. it does not appear, therefore, that a NTC
Club can be located in Eden Prairie if the Club is not an allowed use
on the proposed site. I
For these reasons, Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc., respectfully requests
that the Eden Prairie Board of Appeals and Adjustments find that the
proposed Racquet and Swim Club, which is within the allowable square
footage guidelines for the Community Commercial district, is an allowable
use in the Community Commercial district. We will be present at the Board's
meeting to present plans and further information about the Club and to
answer any questions which Board members may have.

Staff Review -
The City's Comprehensive Guide Plan designated 4 Community
Commercial areas. These are:
Corner of Anderson Lakes Parkway and County Road 18, the
Preserve Village Center.
Corner of County Road 4 and T.H. 5, the Prairie Village
Mall.

potential development of said site as it directly affects the home-
owners of St. John's Wood; and
WHEREAS declarant desires that the Planning Commission; Board

St. John's Wood strongly recommends that the City of Eden Prairie
grant any and all permits required for the construction and develop-
ment of said site.
RESOLVED FURTHER that in the opinion of the Board of Directors

and other residents of the surrounding community; that the tennis
club aesthetically would be a more appropriate and pleasing project
than any other type of service, retail, or other commercial use;
and traffic and safety problems will have less adverse impact to
neighboring areas of a tennis club in contrast to any other commer-
cial use.

Re: Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc.
Appeal from Planning Staff Determination
Dear Board Members:
Please be advised that this office represents the St. John's Wood
Homes Association in Eden Prairie. The St. John's Wood Townhomes are
situated directly to the west across Baker Road from the subject site
of the planned Normandale Tennis Center, which is presently the
Arteka Nursery. The Normandale Tennis Center developers and their
attorneys have met with various members of the Townhome Association
about the project. The Board of Directors has recently had a special
meeting and has resolved that the Tennis Center would be the most
appropriate use for the property. The Board strongly endorses this
project and urges the Board of Appeals to reverse the Planning Staff
determination that this is not an appropriate use pursuant to the
City Code.
The City clearly has a heavy burden to carry if it decides to dis-
allow this use pursuant to Section 11.25 of the City Code. It is
our opinion that a tennis club clearly comes within the community
•
commercial district designation. Not only is the language of sub-
section B, Section 11.25 so general as to clearly allow such a
"personal service establishment" such as a tennis club which is
patronized primarily by the residents of the immediate community,
but in the event of a court test this ordinance could be struck
down as unconstitutionally vague. The City cannot have a very
generally worded ordinance and then pick and choose which types of
uses it decides is appropriate for a certain parcel. The Minnesota
Supreme Court has recently held that it is arbitrary as a matter of
law to deny approval of an application which complies in all respects
to the City ordinances. Odell v. City of Eaaan (1984) 348 NW 2d 792,
The Supreme Court has also repeatedly held that zoning ordinances are
to be construed strictly against a city and in favor of a property •
owner, Frank's Nursery Sales, Inc. v. City of Roseville (1980) 295 NW 2d 604; Amcon Cora. v. City of Eagan (1984) 348 NW 2d 66; Chan-
hasren Estates Res. v. City of Channassen (1984) 342 NW 2d 335.

tl�
Additionally it is the opinion of the Board that aesthetically the
site as a tennis club would clearly be preferable over any type of
shopping center, retail or other service-commercial use which may be
allowable for that zoning district. Also, it is the opinion of the
Board that traffic would be reduced and safety enhanced by a recrea-
tional facility such as a tennis club versus the continual traffic
flow in and out of a commercial-retail project.
If the Board or staff have any questions about this letter or the
enclosed Resolution from the Board, please do not hesitate to call
me. The Board at St. John's Wood of course desires to help the City,
the property owner, and the developers in any way toward the positive
resolution of this issue.

Re: Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc.
Appeal of the Planning Department Determination
Dear Board Members:
I am unable to attend the public hearing to be held on
September 12, 1985 concerning the Normandale Tennis Centers,
Inc. appeal of the staff determination that the proposed
racquet and swim club is not a permitted use within the
Community Commercial zoning district; therefore, I respect-
fully request that my written comments be accepted as public
testimony and be made part of the public record.
Personally, I enjoy playing tennis (especially year-
round) and I am pleased that an established club is interested
in constructing another facility in Eden Prairie. I believe
there is a market demand for a project of this scale within
` the community.
From a professional planning point of view, I disagree
with the staff interpretation of the purpose of the Community
Commercial District in regard to the proposed development. A
typical Community Commercial district is designated to provide
retail sales and services for the local population. The district
does not necessarily need the land area nor highway orientation
which is imperative to a regional commercial district.
If the Board conducted a survey of metropolitan cities, the
result would most likely indicate that a majority of the cities
have adopted within their zoning ordinance the concept that
community commercial is the provision of services for the local
population.
In regard to the purposes of the Community Commercial
district as described in the Eden Prairie ordinance, the proposed
use is a service establishment which will be primarily used by
local residents and is compatible with the existing residential
land uses. Further, the proposed development complies with re-
quirements of the district concerning land area, building size
and other site design standards.

Normandale Tennis Centers
it is the responsibility of the Board of Appeals and
Adjustments to determine whether the proposed use is compatible
with the general purpose of the zoning district and the Compre-
hensive Plan. The Board does not have the authority to decide
which uses they would prefer to develop on select parcels of
land. The Board determination on this particular application
will create a precedent for future interpretations of the pur-
poses of the community commercial district. Therefore, I would
urge you to review the language stated in the ordinance regarding
community commercial and regional commercial and determine that
the proposed tennis and swim club clearly belongs in the Community
Commercial district.
Thank you for your consideration of my comments.
Yours truly,

Anderson seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
J. Request #85-37, submitted by Larkin, Hoffman, Daly & Lindgren, for
property located at 6231 Baker Road. The request is for an inter-
pretation of City Code, Chapter 11, Section 11.25, Subdivision 1, 1
B, to permit the construction of a Racquet and Swim Club within a 1
Community Commercial Zoning District. (Code permits retail stores,
offices, and personal service establishments to be patronized pri-
marily by residents of the immediate community area in Community
Zoning District.)
Peter Beck, attorney with Larkin, Hoffman, Daly & Lindgren, rep-
resented Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc. Also present were Jerry
and Ron Bailey of Arteka and Alan Kimpell, architect for the project.
Beck stated that the request is an appeal of determination and is an
allowable use within the Community Commercial Zoning District. Pre-
liminary site plans were shown.
Beck noted that the proposed club will contain five outdoor and
twelve indoor tennis courts, nine racquetball and squash courts,
an indoor gymnasium, an indoor running track, a Nautilis room, a
weight room, other related fitness facilities, locker rooms, a
small pro shop for the sale of sports equipment and clothing, and
a small "juice bar" serving snacks and juices. There will be no
restaurant facilities and no liquor served in the Club. The tennis
building, the clubhouse, and the walkways between them will occupy
a total of approximately 170,000 square feet. There are 304
parking spaces, which is in excess of the City Code requirements.
Beck stated that Normandale Tennis Club operates ten racquet and
swim clubs in the metropolitan area. Each of these clubs is open
to all members of any club. It will serve approximately 1,200-
1,300 members. Experience has shown that each club attracts
primarily members who live or work within ten minutes of the Club.
There are currently 600 club members from Eden Prairie that will
form a nucleus that will support this club. Normandale Tennis
Clubs generate approximately 500-900 member visits per day during
Board of Appeals and Adjustments - 10 - September 12, 1985
the winter. In summer it is approximately 1 of that. The maximum
number of total trips to and from the Club during the peak season
will be between 1000-1500.
Beck read from the Staff Report dated August 27,1985. It reads in
part:
"A single use facility, as proposed by Normandale Tennis Center,
would not provide the range of personal services needed by the
residents of the area."
"The City Code, specifically lists special purpose for Community
Commercial and Regional Commercial Zoning Districts:
1) To provide appropriately located areas for retail
stores, offices, and personal service establish-
ments patronized primarily by residents of the
immediate area.
2) To permit development of community shopping centers
and related residential uses of the size and in the
appropriate locations shown on the Guide Plan,
according to standards that minimize adverse impact
on adjoining residential uses."
"Staff finds that the Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc. proposed
racquet and swim club is not a permitted use within the Com-
4 munity Commercial District and recommends denial of the
request for the following reasons:
1) The NTC use is inconsistent with the Comprehensive
Guide Plan elements which outlines Community Commer-
cial as,..."intended to meet the day-to-day shopping
needs of residents of the City and would include the
full range of retail shops and services at a scale
smaller than a regional center..."
2) The NTC use as proposed, is inconsistent with the
City's Code which outlines special purposes of C-Com
as ...retail stores, offices, and personal service
establishments patronized primarily by residents of
the immediate community area."
Beck said that they do not accept the fact that NTC is a single use
facility. It is a multiple facility. Beck gave as an example of a
single use facility, Lil Red Grocery Store, at the intersection of
Valley View Road and County Road #4.
Beck read again from the August 27, 1985 Staff Report. It states
in part:
"City Code identifies special purpose of the C-REG Regional
Commercial District to:
I) To provide a large site at an appropriate location •
Board of Appeals and Adjustments - 11 - September 12, 1985
for a major shopping center which serves a wider
region than the City itself consistent with the
intent of the Metropolitan Guide Plan."
Beck felt that this is not the intent of the ordinance. Staff is
concerned that NTC would have a draw area of 5-6 miles and serve
Minnetonka, Edina and Bloomington, besides Eden Prairie. Beck
stated that they intend to serve the community of Eden Prairie
with the 600 local members as a nucleus. They will also serve
Minnetonka. The need is in Eden Prairie, not Edina or Bloomington.
Beck said that the Institute of Traffic has found that 11 trips are
generated per 1,000 square feet. Eden Prairie has 2 pieces of land
the same size: The Preserve and Prairie Village Mall, each 80,000
square feet. These centers generate over 9,000 trips per day.
Beck stated that if the proposed club were built, there would be no
nuisance characteristics such as noise or litter. It would not be
an adverse influence on the surrounding neighborhood.
1
Durham noted that NTC would be considered a single use; e.g. a health
center only. It would not be considered as "Community Commercial".
The C-Com area at Baker Road, and West 62 nd Street will serve
residents in a 1-3 mile radius. Services would be provided to
approximately 4,500 people today, approximately 6,853 people as
estimated in the 1990 population forecast, and 9,000 people as
estimated in the City's population forecast.
Durham called three communities with NTC locations:
1) Bloomington has two NTC locations:
a) The West 78th Street location is zoned FRWD, which is
Freeway Zoning District. The NTC was permitted with a
special use permit. Permitted use within this zoning
district is Office and Industrial Development.
b) The 98th Street Club is zoned FRWD-PD, which is a
Planned Development. Permitted uses include Office,
Industrial and Large Commercial Development.
2) Burnsville is Zoned General Development, which is a zoning
district similar to C-REG Service.
3) St. Louis Park is zoned Diversified Development District,
which is an intense zoning district, similar in character-
istics to a C-REG Service. This district includes Large
Office, Industrial, Commercial, and Hotel Development.
Durham said that the NTC in these three communities have a zoning
classification similar to Eden Prairie's C-REG Service Zoning District.
3oard of Appeals and Adjustments - 12 - September 12, 1985 4
Durham stated that by having a single use tennis club on this nine 4
acre site, Eden Prairie would be reducing a service area to be
found within a Community Commercial District. Not everyone would
go to the health club. Some might need a dry cleaners, or day care,
etc. The nine acres should not be for just one use. We are not
saying that this type of use can't be used in Community Commercial.
It's not the use that the City is concerned about, but that we will
lose the site for a shopping center. Staff would like to see an
assortment of retail services as outlined in the City Code for Com-
munity Commercial Zoning.
Krueger asked if another route would be to rezone the property.
Durham stated that it would have to go to the Planning Commission
and City Council for a Guide plan change and C-REG Service Zoning.
Anderson was not opposed to the idea.
Durham read from the August 27, 1985 Staff Report. It reads in part:
"City Code identifies special purpose of the C-COM Community
Commercial District to:
To permit development of community shopping centers and
related residential uses of the size and in the appro-
priate locations shown on the Guide Plan, according to
standards that minimize adverse impact on adjoining
residential uses."
Peter Stalland, attorney, representing residents of St. John's Wood
Homes, was in strong support of the NTC project. (See Exhibits D
and E.)
Stalland said that the club is preferable to a shopping center as
it will be aesthetically pleasing, with less traffic problems. From
the homeowner's prospective, the values of the townhouses would be
increased with the club. A shopping center would tend to decrease
property values and degrade the area.
Stalland stated that the ordinance allows this use. The Staff is
picking and choosing what it wants to see developed on this site.
Stalland stated that the Supreme Court has repeatedly held that
zoning ordinances are to be construed strictly against a City and
in favor of a property owner.
Neighbors present were in support of the tennis club versus the
shopping center.
Anderson said that he lives in the area, and would be in favor of a
tennis club. He wondered about the need for a mall. Durham stated
that the development of Tanager Creek, Cardinal Creek, and develop-
ment of vacant lots is occuring rapidly. The two existing Community
Commercial sites are experiencing saturation. The Preserve Mall and
Prairie Village Mall served 16,263 people in 1980. Today, these
Commercial Centers are serving approximately 25,000 +. Removal of
this nine acre Community Commercial site creates added pressure to
the existing Community Commercial sites.
Board of Appeals and Adjustments - 13 - September 12, 1985
Ron Bailey, owner of the site, said that they got a request from
4 the developer to sell the land. They have attempted to work with
the City Planning Department and it hasn't worked out well. Many
cities don't have a Community Commercial Zoning District. The
scale for a shopping center is normally 50,000-100,00D square feet.
City Planner Chris Enger would like to see 4 acres of 9.7 acres
dedicated to a shopping center. (80,000 square feet shopping
center.) Bailey felt that Enger wedged himself between the
owner and interferred with the natural process.
Dickey said that the Board has a responsibility to the City and
the Council. If the Board denies the interpretation, the recourse
is for the proponent to ask to go to the City Council. The Planning
Department will appeal the Board's decision if the interpretation is
in favor of permitting NTC Club on the complete 9 acre site.
The Board of Appeals and Adjustments received a letter from Judy
Simac, 8800 Knollwood Drive, on September 12, 1985. Simac was
unable to attend the meeting and is in favor of the tennis club.
(See Exhibit F.)
MOTION: Anderson made a motion to approve Variance Request
#85-37, submitted by Larkin, Hoffman, and Lindgren, with the
following findings:
1) It is a property that will serve residents in the immediate
area.
i
2) The determination made by City Staff, Zoning Administrator, •
that the construction of the proposed Racquet and Swim Club •
is of such scale to be considered a Regional Commercial use
and not consistent with a Community Commercial Zoning District
is not a true and correct interpretation of the Code. There •
-
fore, this Board determines the proposed Racquet and Swim Club
an appropriate use in a Community Commercial Zoning District.
Dickey seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
K. Request #85-38. subm"tted by Krown Furniture, Inc. for property
located at 10340 Viki Drive. The request is from City Code,

David Zirbes, representing wn Fu iture, Inc., spoke to the
request. Zirbes noted tha, they are 4s�king for an interpretation
for the use of the build" g. They havd\ rown in the last 4 years
to a 30,000 square foe building. An I- Zoning District was
applied for by Vanta for office/showroom. A variance granted
allowed up to 75 fice for this site.

Re: Board of Appeals and Adjustments
Review of Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc.
Request for Interpretation of City Code
Chapter 11 Section 11.25
Dear Mayor Peterson and Members of the City Council:
Please be advised that this office represents Jerry Bailey and Ron
Bailey who are owners of Arteka, Inc. Arteka is the owner and seller
of the property at the corner of 62 and Baker Road which is the sub-
( ject site for the Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc. proposal for a ten-
nis and swim club. In May of 1985 the Baileys entered into a purchase
agreement with Normandale Tennis Center to purchase Arteka's approxi-
mately 10 acres for the sole purpose of constructing a tennis and
swim club. Since that time the Baileys have been frustrated in their
attempt to consummate the purchase agreement by the time of their clos-
ing date which was September 1, 1985 because of the City's Planning
Staff's position that the tennis club is not an appropriate use within
the meaning of the community commercial district. To date my clients
feel that they have been treated badly by the City and have been frus-
trated in their attempts to sell their property. Therefore, this let-
ter serves to articulate the Baileys' legal rights as land owners pur-
suant to the community commercial zoning ordinance.
The issue before the City Council is whether or not the community com-
mercial zoning ordinance allows for a use such as the one submitted
by the Normandale Tennis Center for a tennis and swim club. It is
our opinion that the ordinance does allow for the use for the follow-
ing reasons:
1. The very general language of the ordinance outlines special
purposes of the C-Com as " . . . retail stores, offices, and personal
service establishments patronized primarily by residents of the imme-
diate community area." No specific permitted uses are articulated
in the ordinance, nor are there any definitions which would clarify
0 what this phrase means or what type of uses it would include. It is
our opinion that a tennis club would be considered by a court as a
"personal service establishment" which would be patronized by primarily
Honorable Gary Peterson and
Members of the Eden Prairie City Council
October 8, 1985
Page Two
residents of the immediate community area. Obviously a tennis and
swim club is a personal service establishment. It is not so obvious
how the ordinance defines the word "primarily" and how it determines
who the "residents of the immediate community area" are. Apparently
these decisions are arbitrarily made by the City Planner. The prop-
erty owner, nor a potential purchaser, is given any indication by the
law or notice thereof as to what these terms may mean. Based upon
experience it is clear that the Normandale Tennis Clubs already in
existence are used by residents of the immediate area. See Peter
Beck's letter to the City dated August 22, 1985, hereto attached as
Exhibit "A." It is also the opinion of the neighborhood that it would
be patronized by those most affected by the tennis club. See Resolu-
tion by the Board of Directors of St. John's Wood Homes Association,
hereto attached as Exhibit "B."
2. Section 11.25 subd. 1 (B) (2) speaks of development which
will "minimize adverse impact on adjoining residential uses." There
is perhaps no greater authority on what a potential adverse impact
on adjoining residential areas is than those residential citizens who
will live closest to the projected use. The St. John's Wood Homes
Association by resolution and by petition have dramatically shown
their support for the tennis club versus any other type of commercial
use. Many other neighboring property owners have also shown their
support. There has been no individual, nor entity, other than the
City's own Planning staff, who have opposed in any way the tennis club
project. It is a matter of common sense to realize that residential
areas surrounding the subject site would be more adversely impacted
by a shopping center or other type of office or commercial use rather
than a tennis and swim club.
3. The subject ordinance has been drafted with the apparent
intent to allow the City staff with as much discretion as possible
in determining which uses can or cannot be included in the community
commercial district. The City cannot have a generally worded ordinance
and then pick and choose which types of uses it decides is appropriate
for a certain parcel. When an ambiguity arises, the Supreme Court
of Minnesota has repeatedly held that zoning ordinances are to be con-
strued strictly against a city and in favor of a property owner.
Amcon Corp. v. City of Eagan (1984) 348 NW 2d 66; Chanhassen Estates
Res. v. City of Chanhassen (1984) 342 NW 2d 335; Frank's Nursery
Sales, Inc. v. City of Roseville (1980) 295 NW 2d 604. Provided that
the Normandale Tennis Clubs' application for a site plan and building
permit conforms with all City ordinances, the City as a matter of law
must approve the application absent any showing that there are prob-
lems associated with the project regarding public health, safety or
welfare. Odell v. City of Eagan 1984) 348 NW 2d 792; Ostrand v.
Vilage of North St. Paul (1966) 147 NW 2d 571. There has been no
showing by the City staff, nor by anyone else, that the tennis and
swim club presents problems of public health, safety or welfare. On
Honorable Gary Peterson and
Members of the Eden Prairie City Council
October 8, 1985
Page Three
the contrary, as stated above, all interested parties have indicated
the opposite conclusion.
4. If the City denies the applicant's request, it will thwart
the constitutionally protected right of the free alienation and trans-
fer of private property. The Baileys have already suffered great
financial loss as a result of the delays incurred because of the
staff's position. If the City Council affirms the staff's position
at its October 15th meeting, it may cause the direct and proximate
result of the rescission of the purchase agreement with the Baileys
by Normandale Tennis Club. This will cause the Baileys great finan-
cial harm and will possibly subject the City to a money damage claim.
See San Diego Gas and Electric Company v. City of San Diego (1981)
101 S.Ct. 1287; Hernandez v. City of Lafayette (5th Circuit 1981) 643
F. 2d 1188. A denial by the City Council of applicant's request would
deny the Baileys' right to sell their property. The control of uses
authorized within a zone must have a substantial relationship to the
public good and not result from a desire to resist the operation of
economic laws. Metro 500 Inc. v. City of Brooklyn Park (1973) 221
NW 2d 358. See also Sanderson v. City of Willmar (1968) 162 NW 2d
494. A denial by the City which results in a rescission of the pur-
chase agreement with Normandale Tennis Club may also serve to decrease
the property value of the subject site. The City Council must by law
take this into consideration. Beck v. City of St. Paul (1975) 231
NW 2d 919. In summary, zoning restrictions must be strictly construed
in favor of the free use of the property. This is the overwhelming
authority in both state and federal courts. Greenwalt v. Zoning Board
of Adjustment of City of Davenport (1984) 345 NW 2d 537; Crowley v.
Knapp (1980) 288 NW 2d 815; League to Save Lake Tahoe v. Crystal Enter-
prises (C.A. Nev. 1982) 685 F. 2d 1142.
5. A tennis and swim club use is not prohibited by the community
commercial nor by any other zoning ordinance. Consistent with the
court's generous interpretation of zoning ordinances in favor of the
property owner, authority exists for the proposition that a zoning
ordinance should not be extended by implication to prevent a use not
clearly prohibited. Arkae Development, Inc. v. Zoning Board of Adjust-
ment of the City of Ames (1983) 337 NW 2d 884. This position has been
clearly enunciated by the Supreme Court of Minnesota in Odell v. City
of Eagan (1984) 348 NW 2d 792 wherein it held that in interpreting
terms of a zoning ordinance, the Court must look to their plain and
ordinary meaning and use the least restrictive interpretation, protect-
ing the rights of the property owner. (underlining added) . Therefore
the City Council must interpret the zoning ordinance, which is ambigu-
ous on its face, in favor of the property owner.
The staff position is found in their recommendations in the Staff
Report to the Board of Appeals and Adjustments, copy of which is
Honorable Gary Peterson and
Members of the Eden Prairie City Council .
October 8, 1985
Page Four
hereto attached as Exhibit "C." The first recommendation is that
tennis club use is inconsistent with the Comprehensive Guide Plan.
This finding by the staff is totally irrelevant to the issue at hand
because the Minnesota Legislature on July 1, 1985 amended M.S.A.
Section 462.357 subd. 2 and M.S.A. Section 473.858, by specifically
stating that if the comprehensive municipal plan is in conflict with
the zoning ordinance, the zoning ordinance supersedes the plan.
This amendment was made to eliminate the constant conflicts which
have arisen between the guide plan and the ordinance. The ordinance
is what controls in our case, and that is what the City Council must
review alone to determine the answer to the issue before it. The
staff in the report also noted that no undue hardship has been demon-
strated by the applicant and that a reasonable use of the land
exists. These are legal criteria for a rezoning, not for the issue
as to whether or not a use is appropriate within the construction
of a zoning ordinance. Therefore they are irrelevant.
The staff has also taken the approach that the tennis club is a more
appropriate use within the regional commercial zone rather than the
community commercial. There is no basis for this position. First
the language of the C-Regional District focuses on a "large site"
for a "major shopping center." Such regional shopping center zoning
districts in the metropolitan area reflect projects such as the Eden
Prairie Center, Southdale, the Burnsville Center, Ridgedale, etc.
Alao, the permitted Uses" in subd. 2 within the C-Reg District ordi-
nance are of a different type than a 170,000 square foot recreation
club. Other reasons why the C-Reg District is inappropriate are more
fully articulated in Peter Beck's letter, Exhibit "A."
Consistent with the staff's position, if we look at the other end of
the spectrum regarding the zoning classifications, the "neighborhood
commercial" designation would not be appropriate for the tennis club
either. Therefore of the three classifications of the zoning ordi-
nance, community commercial best reflects the tennis club use. In
reference to this argument, please also refer to those reports hereto
submitted to the City Council from Bruce Pankonin and Richard Bloom,
both ex-City Planners of the Cities of Chanhassen and Minnetonka
respectively.
The City Council's duty is to the health, safety and welfare of the
citizens of Eden Prairie. Arteka is a good corporate citizen and
Honorable Gary Peterson and
Members of the Eden Prairie City Council
October 8, 1985
Page Five
deserves favorable treatment from the City with regard to the dispo-
sition of this issue. The health, safety and welfare issue has been
answered by all the neighbors which have submitted their resolutions,
petitions and have appeared at the various meetings. All are in
favor of the tennis club. The only apparent obstacle in this matter
is the City staff which is making an overly technical interpretation
of the ordinance to the detriment of the property owner, the appli-
cant, and the neighboring residential property owners. In the spirit
of fairly representing all of these parties, the Baileys respectfully
request the City Council to determine without qualification that the
Normandale Tennis Center is an appropriate use as a tennis and swim
club within the community commercial district as zoned and accordingly
to uphold the findings of the Board of Appeals and Adjustments. Thank
you.

Re: Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc.
C Appeal from Planning Staff Determination
Dear Board Members:
This letter supplements the application submitted by Normandale Tennis
Centers, Inc. (NTC) appealing to the Board of Appeals and Adjustments a
decision made by the City's planning staff. The appeal is from staff's
determination that a proposed NTC Racquet and Swim Club is not an allowable
use within the Community Commercial zoning district.
NTC has entered into an agreement to purchase approximately ten acres of
property located at 6233 Baker Road (the Property) . The Property is
immediately adjacent to and southwest of the intersection of Interstate
Highway 494 and the Crosstown Highway Extension. The Property is currently
designated in the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan for Community Commercial
uses. The bulk of the Property is zoned Community Commercial consistent
with the land use designation.
NTC is in the business of developing and operating racquet and swim clubs.
They have purchased the Property for the purpose of constructing a racquet •
and swim club (the Club) in the City of Eden Prairie. The Club will contain
five outdoor and twelve indoor tennis courts; nine racquetball and squash
courts; an indoor gymnasium; an indoor pool; an indoor running track: a
Nautilis training room; a weight room: other related fitness facilities;
, 'ocker rooms; a small pro shop for the sale of sports equipment and clothing;
d a small ('juice bars' serving snacks and juices. There will be no
restaurant facilities and no liquor served in the Club.
EXHIBIT "A"

Eden Prairie Board of Appeals

Page 2
The indoor tennis courts will occupy approximately 79,000 square feet of
space in a permanent building. The balance of the facilities will be
located in a clubhouse of approximately 85,000 square feet. The tennis
building, the clubhouse and the walkways between them will occupy a total
of approximately 170,000 square feet. NTC operates ten Racquet and Swim
Clubs in the Metropolitan area. Suburban clubs similar in size to the
Club proposed for Eden Prairie generate approximately 500 to 900 member
visits per day during the peak season. Use during the summer is
considerably less.
The Eden Prairie Zoning Ordinance establishes three basic commercial
zoning districts: Neighborhood Commercial, Community Commercial and
Regional Commercial. The special purposes of the Community Commercial
district are set forth as:
1. To provide appropriately located areas for retail stores,
offices, and personal service establishments patronized
primarily by residents of the immediate community area.
(Emphasis added)
2. To permit development of community shopping centers and
related residential uses of the size and in the appropriate
locations shown on the guide plan, according to standards
that minimize adverse impact on adjoining residential uses.
The purposes of the Regional Commercial district are set forth as:
1. To provide a large site at an appropriate location for a
major shopping center which serves a wider region than the
City itself consistent with the intent of the Metropolitan
Guide Plan.
2. To ensure that a major center will be developed in accord
with high standards of site planning, architecture and
landscape design.
3. To minimize the adverse effect of major commercial facilities
on nearby dwellings.
The Club is clearly not of a scale and intensity of use which would
require Regional Commercial zoning. However, planning staff has made
the decision that the Club is not an allowable use in Community Commercial
district because it will attract members from a larger area than the
"den Prairie Community and because of the size of the proposed structures.
rC, although reluctant to challenge City staff, is appealing this
decision because they feel the proposed tennis center is a community use
and will be a benefit to the Eden Prairie community.

City staff's primary reason for opposing a tennis club use in the Community
Commercial District is their perception that it will not be "patronized
primarily by residents of the immediate community area". NTC operates
ten racquet and swim clubs in the Metropolitan Twin Cities area. Each of
these clubs is open to all members of any club. The Eden Prairie club
will, therefore, be open and available for use by any member of all ten
clubs. However, it has been NTC's experience that each club attracts
primarily members who live or work within ten minutes of the Club. Most
tennis players and club members will not travel more than ten minutes
each way to play an hour's worth of racquetball or tennis. For this
reason, NTC's goal in locating its existing clubs and in the placement
of future clubs has been to place them approximately ten minutes apart
throughout the-Metropolitan area. It is true that the ten minute travel
time radius around the Club proposed for Eden Prairie will include
portions of Minnetonka and Edina as well as Eden Prairie. However, any
commercial use on this Property, which is located on the City's border
with Minnetonka, will be patronized by residents of Minnetonka and Edina
as well as Eden Prairie. NTC expects that this Club, like NTC's other
suburban clubs, will be patronized primarily by members from the
irrounding community and neighboring areas.
City staff's second objection to the proposed Club is related to
the size of the tennis facility and clubhouse. As noted above, the Club
will be approximately 170,000 square feet in size including the indoor
tennis facility, the clubhouse.and walkways between the two structures.
City staff has indicated they do not feel a structure of this size is
appropriate in the Community Commercial district. However, the Comprehensive
Guide Plan specifically states that areas designated for Community
Commercial development are intended for uses which would range in size
from 100,000 to 200,000 square feet of retail or service sales area. The
Club falls well within this guideline and complies with all site coverage,
floor area ratio, and other perfozmar,ce standards for the Community
Commercial zoning district.
More important than the size of the Club, however, is the intensity
of use which it represents. The second special purpose of the Community
Commercial zoning district specifically states that it is the purpose
of this district to minimize adverse impact on adjoining residential uses.
NTC expects the Club to generate somewhere between 500 and 900 member
visits per day during the peak, winter season. Visits to the Club will
be approximately one-half of that during the summer months. The maximum
number of total trips to and from the Club during the peak season will,
therefore, be in the neighborhood of 1500. This is considerably less than
''ould be generated by virtually any other allowable, permitted use in the
tA.

Community Commercial zoning district. For instance, a small to medium
size fast food restaurant which would occupy no more space than a single
indoor tennis court could easily generate three times more traffic than
the entire club proposed for the Property. A single small convenience
store of the same size could generate over twice the traffic of the Club.
Combining these two uses with a small to medium size shopping center,
all as allowed in the Community Commercial district, would result in
the Property generating many times the traffic which will be generated
by the proposed Racquet and Swim Club. In addition to the extra traffic,
restaurant, shopping or other commercial use of the Property will
certainly result in noise, litter and other nuisance problems which will
not occur with a first class Racquet and Swim Club.
The proposed Club is a very low intensity use of this ten acre site
which, by its nature, minimizes adverse impact on neighboring residential
uses. The City Zoning Ordinance has created the Community Commercial
district to allow commercial development in areas outside the City?s major
center area, but to restrict that development to uses which minimize impact
-n adjoining residential development. The Racquet and Swim Club proposed
k NTC is an ideal use for the Community Commercial district. It is a
very low intensity use which will generate a minimum amount of traffic
and no disruption for its neighbors.
Just as importantly, the proposed Racquet and Swim Club will provide a
recreational facility and service which will be of great benefit to the
Community and the area surrounding the Club. There is a demonstrated need
for this type of a facility in the Eden Prairie Community and NTC is
anxious to fill this need. NTC has investigated a number of potential
locations in Eden Prairie, including several suggested by City staff.
However, none of the available alternative sites meet NTC's minimum
site selection criteria. It does not appear, therefore, that a NTC
Club can be located in Eden Prairie if the Club is not an allowed use
on the proposed site.
For these reasons, Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc., respectfully requests
that the Eden Prairie Board of Appeals and Adjustments find that the
proposed Racquet and Swim Club, which is within the allowable square
footage guidelines for the Community Commercial district, is an allowable
use in the Community Commercial district. We will be present at the Board's
meeting to present plans and further information about the Club and to
answer any questions which Board members may have.

J: Request #85-37 submitted by Larkin, Hoffman, Daly & Lindgren,
for property located at 6231 Baker Road. The request is for an
interpretation of City Code, Chapter 11, Section 11.25,
Subdivision 1, B, to permit the construction of a Racquet and
Swim Club within a Community Commercial Zoning District .
(Code Permits retail stores offices, and personal service
establishments to be patronized primarily by residents of the
immediate community area in Community Commercial Zoning District.)
Background - The City Code specifically lists special purpose for
Community Commercial and Regional Commercial Zoning Districts:
City Code identifies special purpose of the C-CDM Community
Commercial District to:
1. To provide appropriately located areas for retail stores,
offices, and personal service establishments patronized
primarily by residents of the immediate community area.
2. To permit development of community shopping centers and
related residential uses of the size and in the appropriate
locations shown on the Guide Plan, according to standards
that minimize adverse impact on adjoining residential uses.
City Code identifies special purpose of the C-REG Regional
Commercial District to:
1. To provide a large site at an appropriate location for a
major shopping center which serves a wider region than the
City itself consistent with the intent of the Metropolitan
Guide Plan.
2. To ensure that a major center will be developed in accord
with high standards of site planning, architecture, and
landscape design."
Key areas in each district's purposes have been underlined.
Staff Review -
The City's Comprehensive Guide Plan designated 4 Community
Commercial areas, These are:
Corner of Anderson Lakes Parkway and County Road 18, the
Preserve Village Center.
Corner of County Road 4 and T.A. 5, the Prairie Village
Mall.
Corner of Baker Road and West 62nd Street, unbuilt todate.
County Road 1, near future Dell Road, unbuilt todate.
These 4 areas were designated to serve different sections of the
City's residential areas. The C-Com areas are to provide community
scale services, i.e., quick stop or full size grocery, cleaners,
hair salons,'auto gas and service stations, drug stores, etc..
EXHIBIT "C" •
- 26 - I "r.
The C-Com area designated at Baker and W. 62nd Street will serve
residents approximateiy.?_mi-les around the site. This
siwill
provide
de
services to approximately 4,500 people today, ap
people, as estimated in our 199l population forecast, and 9,000
people, as estimated in our 2,000 population forecast. A community
commercial service center ranges in square feet from approximately
•
80,000 square feet to 200,000 square feet, and provides a variety of
services to a community.
A single use facility, as proposed by Normandale Tennis Center,
would not provide the range of personal services needed by the
residents of the area.
The International Racquet and Sports Association estimates that a
150,000 square foot + facility would have a draw area of 5-6 miles
or 10-12 minute drive radius. This could mean NTC would serve
Minnetonka. Edina, and Bloomington, besides Eden Prairie.
It is unlikely a C-Com facility on this site would attract
individuals from Edina or Bloomington.
Recomme ns -
Staff finds that the Normandale Tennis Centers, Inc. proposed
racquet and swim club is not a permitted use within the Community
Commercial District and recommends denial of the request for the
following reasons:
✓i. The NTC use is inconsistent with the Comprehensive
Guid n elements which outlines Community
Commercial as, ..."intended to meet the day-to-day
shopping needs of residents of the City and would
include the full range of retail shops and services
at a scale smaller than a regional center...."
•
2. The NTC use as proposed, is inconsistent with the
City's Code which outlines special purposes of C-Com
as "....retail stores, offices, and personal service
establishments Patronized primarily by residents of
the immediate community area."
13• No undue hardship has been demonstrated by the
applicant.
i! '4• A reasonable use of the land exists.

In response to your proposal for a retail shopping center located on the

have any interest in becoming an anchor supermarket for the project. The site
is situated in an area that currently has many supermarkets and with the

JERRY L. BAILEY and RONALD G. BAILEY, being first duly sworn
depose and state as follows:
1. That Jerry L. Bailey is President of Arteka, Inc.,
6233 Baker Road, Eden Prairie, Minnesota 55344; that Ronald G. Bailey
is Vice President of Arteka, Inc., and is also a resident of Eden
Prairie residing at 6950 Marianne Drive, Eden Prairie, Minnesota •
55344. That both affiants are joint owners in Arteka, Inc., which
business comprises land planning, site planning, landscape design,
and site, recreation and landscape construction.
2. That Arteka, Inc. is currently owner of the subject
property which is located at the corner of Highway 62 and Baker Road
in the northeast corner of Eden Prairie, Hennepin County, Minnesota.
That said site is approximately ten acres and has been utilized for
Arteka, Inc.'s headquarters together with nursery storage since 1977
to date.
3. That affiants purchased the subject property in 1977
primarily for investment purposes only after the City staff of Eden
Prairie represented that the property was zoned community commercial.
See letter to Jerry Bailey from Dick Putnam, Planning Director of Eden
Prairie dated December 20, 1976 hereto attached as Exhibit "A." That
the zoning classificatic:a of community commercial was of primary
importance in the decision by affiants to purchase the subject site
and that their intent was to hold the property until near completion
, f the freeway systems and at that time to sell subject property as
community commercial.
4. That affiants entered into negotiations with the Norman-
dale Tennis Centers in May of 1985 and in reliance upon their belief
that the community commercial zoning was appropriate for Normandale's
Tennis Center, entered into a purchase agreement in June 1985 to sell
the subject site. That the closing pursuant to the terms of said pur-
chase agreement was to be by no later than September 1, 1985. That
because of the City of Eden Prairie's staff position that the Tennis
Center's use is not appropriate in a zoning classification of community
commercial, and the resultant procedural and administrative efforts
to correct this staff position, affiants have incurred great expense
and financial loss both in respect to the purchase of the land
and with Arteka's plans for moving its corporate site to a different
location.
5. That the City staff's position that the Tennis Club
is not an appropriate use in a community commercial zone has caused
Arteka great hardship to date together with its 35 employees, and will
continue to create hardship for affiants and their employees until
such time as the use is determined to be appropriate and affiants
together with Normandale Tennis Club are allowed to expeditiously pur-
sue their building permit and site plan review of the Tennis Club pro-
ject.
6. That it is the opinion of Jerry L. Bailey, land use
planner since 1967, that the subject site's highest and best use for
the affiants, the Tennis Club developer, and the community is the
recreational use submitted hereinbefore to the City by the Normandale
Tennis Club and not a commercial-retail shopping center.

We, the undersigned, residents of St. John's Wood Townhomes, fully support
the development of the Normandale Tennis Center on the Arteka property
located directly to the east of St. John's Wood. We believe that the tennis
club would be an asset to the community and would enhance the value of f
our homes. Additionally, it would result in lesser traffic congestion and
aesthetically it would be more pleasing than any other type of development.
We oppose the City staff's position that the most appropriate use for the •
subject property would be a commercial shopping center. We therefore request j
the City Council to expedite the site plan and building permit application
on behalf of the Normandale Tennis Centers and the owners of the Arteka

Richard H. Bloom
Planning and Development Consultant
4929 Highland Road
Minnetonka, MN 55345
October 10, 1985
Mr. Carl Jullie
City Manager
City of Eden Prairie
8950 Eden Prairie Road
Eden Prairie, MN 55344
Dear Carl:
I have been retained by Ronald and Jerry Bailey, owners of Arteka,
Inc., to review their proposed sale of property to Normandale Tennis
Centers, Inc. They have instructed me to review the appropriateness
of locating a proposed racquet and swim club within a community com-
mercial (c-com) district.
The Normandale Tennis Center is proposing to construct a racquet and
swim club complex which will occupy the 9+ acre site on Baker Road.
The Planning Staff report to the BZA rules that the proposed use is
not permitted within the c-com district. The primary reasons are:
the use is inconsistent with the Guide Plan and is contrary to the
City's Code which states the special purposes of c-com as " . . .
retail stores, offices, and personal service establishments patronized
primarily by residents of the immediate community area."
The primary purpose of a zoning ordinance is to establish certain dis-
tinct districts within which various land uses may locate. The ordi-
nance also establishes standards which mu:;t be met in order to ensure
public health, safety and general welfare. The difficulty in this
case is that the Eden Prairie City Code lists few permitted uses; the
uses which are listed tend to be broad such as "retail stores, offices
and personal service establishments." Since the issue at hand is one
of interpretation of the zoning code, the following questions are ger-
mane:
1. Does the proposed use fall within any of the three
general use categories of the district?
The proposed use of a tennis, racquet and swim club
clearly may be considered to be a "personal service
establishment." The provision of private recrea-
tional facilities and associated programs such as
training, exercise and fitness instruction all are
services which are personal in nature.
2. Is the proposed swim and racquet club the type of
personal service establishment "patronized primarily
by residents of the immediate community area?"
Mr. Carl Jullie
October 10, 1985
Page Two
Defining the "immediate community area" in this
instance is difficult since the site is on the
boundary with the City with Minnetonka and is
readily accessible from Interstate 494 and the
Crosstown Freeway. Consequently the "market area"
served by this location could include Eden Prairie,
Minnetonka, Hopkins and Edina as well as others.
The market area proposed by the applicants is pri-
marily directed towards this "community" as noted
in the August 22 letter from Mr. Beck (page 3) . It
should be noted that any "community commercial"
development of the property would likely target
their marketing efforts to this same area.
3. Does the proposed use "minimize adverse impacts on
adjoining residential uses?"
Clearly in terms of traffic generation the proposed
use would be beneficial to the area and is well docu-
mented in Mr. Beck's August 22 letter. Identifying
"adverse impacts" is difficult since people's percep-
1 tions vary. Consequently, applicants are advised to
review proposed plans with adjoining residential
neighborhoods and to respond to their concerns in a
responsible manner. The proposed use of the property
area does respond to residential concerns as evi-
denced by the Resolution and Petition from the St.
John's Wood Homes Association who support the appli-
cant's development.
4. Does the proposed use meet the other standards and
requirements of the community commercial district?
In terms of building size and scale, the proposal
is consistent with zoning requirements. Moreover,
the applicants have stated that all other zoning
requirements will be adhered to as noted in Mr.
Beck's letter.
It is my considered opinion that the type of use proposed clearly falls
within the category of "personal service establishment" that would
be primarily patronized by the immediate community area. Moreover,
the proposed use minimizes adverse impacts upon adjoining residential
areas and the project can adhere to ordinance requirements.
The City of Minnetonka, in their Comprehensive Plan, also suggests
a neighborhood, community and regional commercial strategy. The Ridge-
dale area is identified as "regional commercial" and the Co5/101, Hwy.
7/101 and the Glen Lake area are designated "community commercial."
•
Mr. Carl Jullie
October 10, 1985
Page Three
If one examines these community commercial areas, one finds such
diverse uses such as K-Mart, movie theaters, medical facilities,
office buildings, automobile dealerships, CUB Foods and tennis/
racquetball clubs. All of these uses are deemed appropriate and
are considered to serve the immediate community area. This does
not, however, mean only the City of Minnetonka since residents from
thz Cities of Eden Prairie, Chanhassen, Excelsior, Shorewood and •
Deephaven also frequent these areas.
The Board of Appeals and Adjustments have considered this entire
issue and we believe that they have correctly ruled in favor of the
applicant. I would urge the Eden Prairie City Council to concur in
their findings.
Respectfully submitted,

Cn Commercial Development
"Commercial development will be encouraged at these activity centers for
the convenience of residents. Recognizing that commercial development is
affective by forces that are not in the public realm, the development
plan specifies potential (highlight added) locations for commercial ,
activity and assumes that if commercial development takes place at one of •
these locations, other potential locations will, in all likelihood,
revert to other uses as a result of market forces."
"Comruanity Commercial is intended to meet the day to day shopping needs
of residents of the city and would include the full range of retail shops
and services at a scale smaller than a regional center and would range in
size from 60,000 to 200,000 SF of retail or service sales area."
Men Prairie has designated your property along with 3 other sites to be
community commercial areas. The other areas are located at:
1. Corner of Anderson Lakes Parkway and County Road 18, the Preserve
Villag; Center.
•
2. Cornet of County Road 4 and T.H. 5, the Prairie Village i ll.
C 3. County Poad 1, near Dell Road (not built).
Although the I•:enards Center is indicated as regional ccucercial, the site is
developing (because of tenant nun_) as a conmtnity conrrercial center.
TYPES Cc SHOPPING CENTE,PS -

regional center.
In all cases, even within the variations, the r.a cr tenant classifications
determines the type of shopping center. Tano:c classifications and eusiiiar_.
facilities are in keeping with the territory from which the center draws
a:rto:.ers. The important thing to rerer:bet is that neither the site area nor the
building size determines the type of center - it's the tenant min.

store, while not extinct as anchor tenants, are less prevalent, having been
supplanted as principal anchor tenants by the discount or off-price department
store, or by a strong specialty store such as a hardware/building/home
improvement store or a combined drug/variety/garden center.
A comaunity center can largely be defined by what it does and does not have. It
does not have a full-line department store, which would automatically categorize
it as a regional shopping center. It has a market area larger than a
neighborhood center and thus draws customers from a longer distance. It offers
greater depth and range of merchandise for the neighborhood center. The
consunity shopping center is clearly the "in-between" center.
Regional and Super Regional Shopping Center -
The regional and super regional center provides shopping goods, general
merchandise, apparel, furniture, and home furnishings in full depth and variety.
Its main attraction, around which the center is built, is the full-line
department store. Examples would be Eden Prairie Center and Eloomington's
proposed "Mega-Mall."

EDEN PRAIRIE'S PLAN AND ZURDECMDINANCES GONFORMAICE 113 ACCEPTED CCIPPOIMAL
S7 MAROS. -
The city plan and zoning ordinance, as adopted, suggests your property be
developed as a community commercial site. The plan, I feel, did not adequetely
analyze the existing trade area to determine if a comrunity shopping center wou1
be viable. The plan turned its back on the fact that Minnetonka, for the most
part, will contribute jobs, low density residential, protection open space, and
lots of competition (Glen Lake) to the trade area. Eden Prairie will, for the •
most part, contribute the same.
I-194 and the Crosstown Highway (final link under construction) will place
extreme pressure on the use of your property. The pressures are manifest by the
absorption of high quality office and industrial use in Minnetonka, just north c
put property. Eden Prairie would be wise to accept a low impact use, like the
tennis center, rather than fighting every developer who will naturally want to
develop highway orientated business on your site.
•
Existing Tennis Facilities -
As shown i:. the attached graphic there are 22 tennis facilities located in the •
western p°rt of the r.*etroolitan area. These facilities are no core than a 10
:cir.ute drive fro:, each other.
CJ::MUSIoN -
Eden Prairie's plan does not provide economic base line data justifying a
community shop+ing'center on your site. I do not believe there will ever be a
•
market for such a center. However, the site aii] GE:.:�:rs-TF' e:tre:,r_ interest, on
the part of the dvelopment community, for II._Efl office c::,d bigh ay orientated •
uses.
I Zeal the to: its center, as proposed, will gonorb e 1'e,::b - ic,
•
aid lave less c:f an iarvact on the land than a ccacranity si:o`2it:g center or any
ct:ir cf.v, reial/i.,uustrie.1 rse. The tennis center c.oaic. ire use cf the
i.... , l.c... ..�_ :.o E. ,._jor ,...te1. lenich wou1.6
In reference to your questions regarding tennis cen':vr:; cz a regicn:i use, I can
•
only say common facilities (there are 22 of them) less than 10 minutes apart,
.r:.not be considered a regional. facility. Calling a tennis cl > a "se;ional
facility" would be like calling a grocery store a "regional facility."

BY AND BETWEEN 1i
i
THE HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY IN AND
FOR THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE (Agency)

WHEREAS, Agency and Developer have this day entered into a
Purchase Agreement for the sale of land for private development

containing fifty-six (56) housing units and underground parking
(the Project); and
WHEREAS, the Project will be occupied entirely by lower
income elderly persons, which shall be defined as persons
fifty-five (55) years of age or older;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and covenants
in this Agreement and for other good and valuable
consideration, it is agreed by and between the parties hereto
as follows:
1. ) Project Management - Agency and Developer hereby
agree that Developer's management of the Project following
completion of construction thereof shall be subject to the
terms and conditions set forth in this Project Management
Agreement, including the remedies for noncompliance set forth
herein, contained in the Purchase Agreement or otherwise
available by law. Developer agrees that the Project will be
completed and operational on or before September 1, 1987. In
the event the Project is not completed and operational on or
before September 1, 1987, regardless of the reason, including
any act or omission by Agency or City, the Developer shall be
in default of the Agreement and subject to all remedies
available to Agency.
2. ) Agency's Obligations -
a.) Agency shall in good faith use its best efforts to
obtain and use Community Development Block Grant
Funds in the amount of One Hundred Twenty-eight
Thousand Eight Hundred Nineteen Dollars ($128,819) to
reduce the cost of the property to Developer as set
forth in the Purchase Agreement and shall sell the
Property to Developer on the terms set forth in the
Purchase Agreement and shall comply with all of the
terms of said Purchase Agreement, which is
specifically adopted and incorporated herein by
reference.
2.
b.) Agency shall in good faith use its best efforts to
establish the Redevelopment Project in conformance
with Chapter 462 of Minnesota Statutes.
c.) Agency shall in good faith use its best efforts to
create, in conformance with Minnesota Statutes,
Section 273.71 et seq., a Housing Tax Increment
Financing District (TIF District) within the
Redevelopment Project, which TIF District shall
include the Project and Developer's second Prairie
Village Apartment Building located immediately
adjacent to and west of the Project.
d.) Agency shall in good faith use its best efforts to
establish an Interest Reduction Program and
regulations for the Interest Reduction Program in
conformance with Minnesota Statutes, Section 462.445.
e.) In the event that all other terms and conditions of •
this Agreement and the Purchase Agreement have been
complied with and performed, Agency shall pay to
Developer or its lender the sums set forth in the
column identified as "Annual Tax Inc. Funds" on
Exhibit "A" attached hereto. Agency's payment of
annual tax increment funds shall be made in two (2)
equal installments, each installment to be paid
within ten (10) business days of receipt by Agency of
property tax revenues from Hennepin County. Agency's
obligation to make such payments is expressly
contingent upon sufficient tax increment funds being
generated annually to make such payments. In no
event will the Agency be required to make any
payments from any funds whatsoever other than those
generated by the TIF District. The Tax Increment
Funds shall come from the tax increment generated by
the TIF District and shall be used for the purpose of
interest reduction pursuant to the interest reduction
program. A portion of the Tax Increment Funds (the
Contributed Tax Increment Funds) shall be the
Agency's contribution to the Project. Interest
reduction achieved through the Agency's contribution
of the Contributed Tax Increment Funds shall be
applied by Developer to reduce rents for the housing
units. The remaining portion of the Tax Increment
Funds (the Loaned Tax Increment Funds) shall also be
used by Developer for interest reduction, but shall
be considered a loan from Agency to Developer which
loan shall be repaid as provided herein. Each year
when Agency pays the Tax Increment Funds to
Developer, Developer shall execute a Subordinate Note
in the amount of the Loaned Tax Increment Funds as
established in the schedule attached as Exhibit "A"
to this Project Management Agreement. The
3.
Subordinated Note shall be in the form attached as
Exhibit "B" to this Project Management Agreement and
shall be repaid as provided herein.
f.) At the option of the Developer, Agency shall in good
faith use its best efforts to either:
(i) Cooperate with and assist Developer in
obtaining Minnesota Housing Finance Agency
(MHFA) long-term financing for the
Project; or
(ii) Issue Housing Revenue Bonds sufficient to
finance a long-term mortgage on the
Project.
3. ) Developer's Obligations -
a.) Tenants - All housing units in the Project shall be
rented to lower income elderly persons. Lower income
persons (unless otherwise defined by MHFA if MHFA is
the mortgage lender for the Project) are those whose
incomes do not exceed eighty percent (80%) of the
median income for the standard metropolitan
statistical area, as adjusted for family size and
other facts by HUD. Developer must re-examine the
income of each tenant household on an annual basis.
{ If the tenant's adjusted income exceeds eighty
percent (80%) of the median, or such less restrictive •
guidelines as HUD or the Agency may have established,
Developer must notify the tenant that it must move by
the latter of the date its lease expires or the date
which is six (6) months from the date of
notification.
b. ) Rents - The rent charged by Developer for each unit
shall not exceed:
(i) The rents established in Exhibit "C"
attached hereto, which rents will be no
greater than the "Fair Market Rents"
allowed by HUD pursuant to then currently
applicable HUD rules, regulations, or
policies; or
(ii) Rents allowable by MHFA if MHFA is the
mortgage lender for the Project.
c. ) Rent Increases - Rents as herein attached and
established by the Developer shall not be increased
by more than seven and five-tenths percent (7.5%) a
year, or that amount allowed by HUD or MHFA for
increases in a particular year, whichever is less.
•

following the eighteenth (18th) anniversary of the

date on which a permanent mortgage loan is

repay to Agency the Loaned Tax Increment Funds
actually paid by Agency to Developer or its lender,
plus the three percent (3%) simple interest provided

portion of the One Hundred Twenty-eight Thousand

Agreement Developer shall fail to comply
with the terms of this Agreement or the
Purchase Agreement, Agency may provide
notice of such default or failure and, if
Developer fails to cure within sixty (60)
days or such greater time as allowed by
Agency, then Agency may terminate this
Agreement for cause upon thirty (30) days'
written notice to Developer. Termination
of this Agreement for cause shall subject
Developer to the remedies set forth in
this Agreement and to any additional
remedies set forth in the Purchase
Agreement or otherwise available to
Agency.
(ii) If this Agreement is terminated by Agency
for cause, Developer shall repay to Agency
the Loaned Tax Increment Funds actually
paid by Agency to Developer or its lender,
plus the three percent (3%) simple
interest provided for in the Subordinated
Note or Notes executed by Developer unless
Agency, in its sole discretion, elects to
allow Developer to retain the Loaned Tax
Increment Funds for the sole purpose of
applying said funds to reduce rents for
the Project, thus alleviating the hardship
which would be caused to tenants if the
Project were immediately converted to
market rate rents. Agency and Developer
shall agree on the application of said
funds to reduce rents and Agency shall
have the right to examine Developer's
records to ensure that said Loaned Tax
Increment Funds are being applied to
reduce rents.
7.
(iii) Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary, and in addition to any other
remedy, the Developer shall, in the event
that this Agreement is terminated by
Agency for cause, and upon receipt of a
written demand by Agency therefor,
immediately tender to Agency the sum of
One Hundred Twenty-eight Thousand Eight
Hundred Nineteen Dollars ($128,819) in
repayment of the Community Development
Block Grant Funds acquired by the Agency
and used in connection with this Project.
In the event Developer fails to tender the
One Hundred Twenty-eight Thousand Eight
Hundred Nineteen Dollars ($128,819) as
required by this provision, Agency or its
assigns may in addition to all other
remedies, immediately proceed to foreclose
its second mortgage on the Project in
accordance with the terms of the Purchase
Agreement and the Mortgage Note and Second
Mortgage delivered in connection
therewith.
d. ) Termination by Developer for Cause - In the event
that during the term of this Agreement Agency fails
to provide annual Tax Increment Funds in the amount
set forth in Exhibit "A" to this Agreement within ten
( (10) business days of receipt by Agency of property
tax revenues from Hennepin County, and Agency has
received from Hennepin County sufficient Tax
Increment to make the required Tax Increment Fund
payments, then Agency shall be in intentional default
of this Agreement. Developer shall provide notice of
such default and if Agency fails to cure within
thirty (30) days or such greater time as allowed by
Developer, Developer may either:
(i) Commence an action in Hennepin County
District Court for specific performance to
compel Agency to provide to Developer all
Tax Increment generated by the TIF
District, up to the amount of Annual Tax
Increment Funds to be provided as required
by Exhibit "A" to this Agreement; or
(ii) Terminate this Agreement for cause upon
ten (10) days' written notice to Agency.
If this Agreement is terminated by
Developer for cause due to Agency's
intentional default, Developer shall not
be obligated to repay Agency any portion
of the One Hundred Twenty-eight Thousand
Eight Hundred Nineteen Dollar ($128,819)
8. — i
Community Development Block Grant Funds
nor any portion of the Tax Increment Funds
and Developer's obligation to do so under
the terms of any Subordinated Note or
Notes shall be void; provided, however,
that all Tax Increment Funds in
Developer's possession at the time of the
termination of the Agreement shall be
applied by Developer to reduce rents for
the Project, thus alleviating the hardship
which would be caused to tenants if the
Project were immediately converted to
market rate rents. Agency and Developer
shall agree on the application of said
funds to reduce rents and Agency shall
have the right to examine Developer's
records to ensure that said Loaned Tax
Increment Funds are being applied to
reduce rents.
e. Termination Due to Causes Beyond Agency's
Control - In the event that during the term of
this Agreement, Agency fails to provide Tax
Increment Funds in the amount set forth in
Exhibit "A" to this Agreement within ten (10)
business days of receipt by Agency of property
tax revenues from Hennepin County because Agency
has not received from Hennepin County sufficient
Tax Increment to make the required Tax Increment
Fund Payments, then Agency shall have been
unable to perform under the terms of this
Agreement for reasons beyond its control.
Developer shall provide notice of such
nonperformance and Agency shall have thirty (30)
days, or such greater time as allowed by
Developer, in which to determine whether to
replace the Tax Increment Funds with payments to
Developer of other City or Agency funds. If
Agency elects not to replace the Tax Increment
Funds, then Developer may terminate this
Agreement upon ten (10) days' written notice to
Agency. Each time Agency fails to make the
required tax increment fund payment for reasons
beyond its control shall constitute a separate
event of nonperformance under this paragraph 4e.
Failure of developer to terminate this Agreement
due to such nonperformance shall not waive
developer's right to terminate under this
paragraph 4e with respect to any future
nonperformance. If this Agreement is terminated
by Developer due to nonperformance beyond the
control of Agency, all of Developer's and
Agency's obligations under this Project
Management Agreement shall cease, except that:
9.
(i) Developer shall repay to Agency the One
Hundred Twenty-eight Thousand Eight
Hundred Nineteen Dollars ($128,819) in
Community Development Block Grant Funds;
and
(ii) Developer shall repay to Agency the
Loaned Tax Increment Funds actually paid
by Agency to Developer or its Lender,
plus the three percent (3%) simple
interest provided for in the Subordinated
Notes executed by Developer, on the date
which is the earlier of: (1) eighteen
(18) years from the date of execution of
this Agreement; or (2) the date on which
any sale of the Project by Developer
becomes effective.
(iii) Developer shall be relieved of his
obligation to pay Agency its equity
interest in the Project if this Agreement
is terminated under this paragraph 4e.
5. ) Agency's Equity Interest in Project - In addition to
repayment of Loaned Tax Increment Funds and any other payments
made by Developer to Agency, Developer shall also pay to
Agency, if and when repayment of Loaned Tax Increment Funds is
required, except in the event of a termination by Developer due
to causes beyond Agency's control under Section 4e above, a sum
of money equal to seventeen percent (17%) of Developer's net
sale proceeds from the sale of the Project. Developer's net
sale proceeds from the sale of the Project shall be the cash
proceeds remaining from Developer's sale of the Project after
all debt, closing costs, and other fees and/or expenses
chargeable to the Project, not including taxes, have been paid.
6. ) Assignments -

in the Project and the Project Management Agreement

assignment if it fails to approve said sale,
transfer, or assignment within sixty (60) days of
