1986 Council meeting

MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Pidcock, to continue
this item to the December 2nd meeting of the City Council.
Motion carried unanimously.
B. ALPINE VILLAGE by Herlitz Construction. Request for Re-
zoning from R1-22 to RM-6.5 for 7.58 acres and Preliminary
Plat of 8.23 acres into 19 lots and two outlots for a mul-
tiple family townhouse development. Location: East of
Alpine Trail, south of Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and
Pacific Railroad. (Ordinance No. 57-86 - Rezoning; Reso-
lution No. 86-280 - Preliminary Plat)
City Manager Jullie stated notice of this Public Hearing
had been published and property owners within the project
vicinity had been notified.
Mayor Peterson noted that Council members received many
pages of documentation on this item and he encouraged
proponents and others to be specific and as brief as
possible.
City Council Minutes -4- November 18, 1986
Charles Habiger, representing proponent, addressed the
proposal.
Planning Director Enger said this project first appeared
before the Planning Commission on September 23, 1985, when
it was proposed as a 30-unit townhouse development. He
said three Staff Reports dated September 20, October 25,
and November 8, 1985, reviewed the project and subsequent
changes to the project and made recommendations to the
Planning Commission.
Enger said it was reviewed for the second time at the
October 28, 1985 meeting and then was again reviewed on
November 12, 1985, at which time the Commission recommended
denial of the request for rezoning on a 7-0 vote. He said
the denial was based on the incompatibility of the proposed
attached unit, townhouse development within a single family
neighborhood.
Director of Community Services Lambert said the Parks,
Recreation & Natural Resources Commission did not review
this proposal as it did not receive favorable recommenda-
tion from the Planning Commission.
Redpath asked Mr. Habiger why they couldn't develop eight
or nine up-scale single family homes in the area. Habiger
replied that the site could probably handle eight or nine
larger homes but one of the problems is absorbing the costs
of developing a road into such a project. He said the
price range of single family homes would have to be $125,000-
$175,000 in order to be compatible with homes in the neigh-
boring area and that would not be high enough to absorb
the costs of road development.
Peterson noted that, while he wasn't sure the Council wants
to get into the question of what sort of development is
economically feasible, he took this as an indication that
there is an incompatibility of use as the project is pro-
posed.
Redpath said this is a fantastic piece of property and he
thought it would behoove proponent to come back with some-
thing better. Peterson noted that proponent would have
the option to do that if the present request is rejected.
Bentley noted that, by his calculations, there are about
2.4 units per acre with the proposed development. He said,
while this would fit into the designation of low-density
development, this is part of the on-going debate as to
whether this particular type of housing use is appropriate
City Council Minutes -5 - November 18, 1986
in that particular zone. He said he thought people's per-
ception, particularly in an older, well-established neigh-
borhood, would be that it is a multiple development even
though the density is the same.
Anderson said this kind of thing has been discussed time
and time again. He said because this is the last develop-
ment in the area, the fact that it is a different type of
development from the surrounding neighborhood does make a
difference.
Pidcock asked Habiger if they had been encouraged to come
back with this proposal after it had been turned down.
Habiger said, after they had received the bids back for
the costs of site improvements, they determined that the
development costs would exceed what they could expect to
get back from the sale of the property. He said another
reason for abandoning the plans for single-family develop-
ment was the tremendous impact of the grading plans on the
site.
Pidcock asked again if they were encouraged to come back
with this particular plan. Habiger replied that they felt
Mr. Herlitz has to do something with the property and it
is unmarketable as it stands. Pidcock said she didn't
understand why they are back with the same proposal after
they had been turned down by the Planning Commission and
the Council. Bentley noted that this particular project
has never been before the Council. A discussion followed
regarding the history of the proposed development on this
site.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Anderson, to close the
Public Hearing; to deny the request of Habiger Associates,
Inc. for Rezoning and Preliminary Plat for a multiple family
townhouse development, based on the recommendations of
Planning Commission and Staff; and to request the developer
to work with Staff, Commissions and neighboring residents
to try to reach a mutually-agreeable plan for development
of the site.
Dwight Harvey, 16190 Alpine Way, noted that this item has
been discussed a lot and pointed out that the property is
surrounded on three sides by single family homes. He said
he considers this project to be a case of spot zoning,
since it is a different type of housing to be developed in
an established neighborhood.
John Lyngdal, 16170 Alpine Way, said they have heard that
the site is difficult to develop. He suggested that the
City Council Minutes -6 - November 18, 1986
developer work with the existing residents to develop a
new proposal for the site.
Barney Uhlig, 16370 No. Hillcrest Court, said he viewed
this as a developer coming and asking for a subsidy from
the City now that he cannot afford to develop the project
as it was approved. He noted that if there is a plan for
how Eden Prairie will be developed, we should stick with
it.
Pidcock asked Enger if he thought the grading for a single
family development is possible. Enger said, while the
grading is physically possible, the current market condi-
tions and costs to develop may make it economically un-
feasible to develop it in this way at this time. He said
he was not prepared to say the grading of the property is
not possible.
Peterson said that it is not the Council's function to
develop this property, but rather it is the responsibility
of the developer to work with the neighborhood and Staff
to come up with a proposal that is feasible economically
and environmentally for Council consideration.
Pidcock said that what she was hearing was that the de-
velopment is being held back because of the City's grading
plan. Enger said that communication with the developer
as to how deviation from the grading requirements would
affect their ability to develop the site as single family
indicated even that would not make the project feasible.
Redpath called the question.
VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried unanimously.
V. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS NOS. 30883 - 31239
Pidcock asked about Item 31095 to Eden Prairie Liquor. Finance
Director Frane said this was for pop for the election workers.
She asked about Item 31100 to Fairview Community Hospitals.
City Manager Jullie said that was for D.W.I. testing.
Pidcock then asked about Item 31126 to IBM. Frane said that
item was for a maintenance agreement on an IBM copier. She
asked if bids are solicited from other firms that do mainten-
ance of copiers. Frane said he was not aware of any that worked
on IBM copiers.
Pidcock asked if Item 31128 to Int'l. Office Systems, Inc. was
a similar situation. Frane said this was for a Canon copier
S
-
City Council Minutes -7- November 18, 1986 S
and noted that he would check into other firms that do copy
maintenance.
Pidcock asked about Item 31172 to Northern Power Products, Inc.
Frane said this was for the building controls at the Public
Safety Building.
Anderson asked about Item 31070 to the City of Bloomington.
Jullie said that was for impound service for dogs.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Pidcock, to approve the
Payment of Claims Nos. 30883 - 31239. Roll call vote: Ander-
son, Bentley, Pidcock, Redpath and Peterson voted "aye". Motion
carried unanimously.
VI. ORDINANCES & RESOLUTIONS
There were none.
VII. PETITIONS, REQUESTS & COMMUNICATIONS
A. Proposed NSP Transmission Line along Highway 5 (Continued from November 4, 1-986)
City Manager Jullie noted that this item was continued from
the November 4th meeting and that Mr. Chmiel and staff from
NSP are here to discuss the proposal for a transmission
line west of the Westgate Substation.
Don Chmiel, representing NSP, addressed the proposal. He
presented a videotape showing the proposed route of the
transmission line and said the present schedule calls for
work to begin in the fall of 1987 with the line to be in
service by May of 1988.
Director of Community Services Lambert noted that the City
is considering a hikeway/bikeway bridge across Hwy 5 near the Hwy 4 intersection and asked who would absorb the cost
of raising the lines to accommodate the bridge. The NSP
representatives agreed that the City would have to absorb
the cost if it was constructed after the transmission line
was installed but that Staff could work with the NSF staff
during the construction of the transmission line if the
location of the bridge has been determined. Lambert said
he would suggest that we plan to do that as he thought the
City is serious about constructing the bridge.
Director of Public Works Dietz said the Hwy 4 and 5 project is scheduled for 1988 and, while there are decisions yet
City Council Minutes -8- November 18, 1986
to be made as to whether the bridge will be installed at
this time, he thought it would be good to allow for it
in the transmission line plans. Chmiel said they would
be happy to work with Staff to develop the clearance for
the bridge at the time of construction of the transmission
line.
Redpath asked City Attorney Pauly about the height variances
required. Pauly said that would be referred to the Board
of Appeals and they would have to determine what appropri-
ate conditions might be imposed for the granting of a vari-
ance. Chmiel said there had been no discussion about that.
Redpath asked what the heights would be. Chmiel said the
highest poles would be 90-95 feet.
Bentley asked what action is required on the part of the
Council. Enger responded that he and Mr. Pauly had deter-
mined that the appropriate action by the City would be an
action by the Board of Appeals for a height variance for
the structures with the ultimate decision by the Council
from the Board of Appeals action.
Pauly said that if there is any City right-of-way the lines
are going through, then Council approval would be appropri-
ate. Enger said that Heritage Road and Carnelian Lane might
be. A discussion followed on the question of City right-of-
way and existing easements for the transmission lines.
Bentley reviewed the items in the Staff memorandum of
September 16, 1986 relative to additional work that might
be mutually beneficial and noted that we would like to have
their input on some of these things. Chmiel said the Pub-
lic Utility Commission (P.U.C.) has passed a ruling whereby
they cannot benefit one community and pass it over to the
balance of the rate payers. He said some of the lattice
towers from the Eden Prairie substation to the Westgate
station would be replaced.
Pidcock noted that Eden Prairie has certain standards ex-
pected of commercial developers and that the NSF poles
aren't consistent with our higher quality standards. She
said she thought they should conform to what we ask other
developers to do. Chmiel responded that their hands are
tied.
Pidcock then asked how we could go about getting the poles
to meet the standards. Marlow Peterson, representing NSF,
responded that unless there were some feeder projects or the
line has to be relocated because of highway construction,
it would be difficult to justify replacing the existing
poles. Pidcock urged them to seriously consider this in
their plans.
City Council Minutes -9- November 18, 1986
Bentley said that NSF makes proposals to the rate commis-
sions and he would appreciate it if NSF would make a con-
certed effort to convince the P.U.C. to consider improving
some of the systems in the community. Chmiel said where
the existing kinds of structures cannot accommodate the
new lines, then replacement structures would be required.
Bentley said he would like Staff to write an official letter
to NSF containing the specific requests presented in the
Staff memorandum. He said he would then appreciate an
official response to the letter from NSF.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Pidcock, to approve the
request from NSF for upgrading the existing distribution
line, with height variance subject to review by the Board
of Appeals.
Anderson noted he wanted to make sure that the City will
not bear any of the costs for the elevated line required
by the bridge across Hwy 5, Chmiel said he thought they
could work with Staff at the time of construction to put
in structure heights that would provide the proper clear-
ance.
VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to direct
City Manager Jullie and Staff to write a formal letter
to Northern States Power relative to the specific requests
outlined in the September 16, 1986 memo to the Council
from Planning Director Enger. Motion carried unanimously.
B. Bryant Lake Regional Park Master Plan - Hennepin Parks
(Doug Bryant, Southern Division Manager, and Alex Meyer,
Landscape Architect)
City Manager Jullie said that representatives from Henne-
pin Parks are here to present their draft master plan for
Bryant Lake Regional Park.
Doug Bryant, Judith Anderson and Alex Meyer, representing
proponent, addressed the proposal.
Peterson asked Mr. Bryant if he had received the letter
from Ed Sieber dated November 17, 1986. Bryant said he
had just received it tonight. Peterson noted that there
were some very serious concerns expressed in the letter.
Bryant said he had assured Mr. Sieber that his letter will
)
City Council Minutes -10- November 18, 1986
be presented to the Hennepin County Board on Thursday
night as part of the official record, and said that they
will reply to Mr. Sieber's concerns.
Bryant noted that they are working closely with the P.C.A.
to ensure the control of run-off and pollutants. He said
they are projecting an additional $139,0004150,000 in
the 1988 budget for operations and maintenance of the park
which should help resolve some of the issues raised regard-
ing surveillance, maintenance and administration.
Bentley noted his concern that there was no reference to
the lake surface ordinance for Bryant Lake in the draft
plan. He said he would like to see our surface ordinance
recognized and incorporated as part of the plan since the
ordinance was reached after extensive discussion with the
residents and the Park Reserve District. Bryant said an
attachment to the master plan that contains a copy of the
surface ordinance will be presented at the Thursday night
meeting. Bryant said that the staff recommendation to
the Board includes support of any action by the Eden
Prairie City Council with regard to surface water regula-
tions and controls.
Redpath asked if there is any way the County can get in-
volved in airplane traffic on Bryant Lake as that is going
to become a problem. Bryant replied that they would like
to tackle the problem by working with the City to try to
resolve the issue. He said they are including that as a
concern in their report.
Anderson said that a number of years ago we had a report
from the D.N.R. regarding water quality and that a major
contributing factor was the horse stables. He said he be-
lieves the County Park system has a responsibility to clean
it up since it is their property and their horses. He also
expressed his concern that the County, the City and sur-
rounding cities should be working on a trail system leading
to and from the park systems.
Bryant said one of the recommendations going before the
Board is to acquire more land to the northwest of the exis-
ting boundaries and that this would allow them to establish
sedimentation ponds and water impoundment areas to try to
control run-off. He said that tonight's comments from the
Council will be presented to the County Board on Thursday
and that he will get back to the Council with their response.
Pidcock asked what boat speeds are allowed on Bryant Lake
and whether water-skiing is allowed. Bryant reviewed the
restrictions that exist as a part of the City ordinance.
City Council Minutes -11- November 18, 1986
Ed Sieber, 11792 Dunhill Road, reviewed the points raised
in his letter to Mr. Bryant of November 17, 1986, regard-
ing the problems caused by the horse stable, maintenance,
and lack of surveillance. He said he believed these prob-
lems must be addressed and Rowland Road must be upgraded
before the park can be developed.
Peterson assured Mr. Sieber that we are concerned about
the situation and will monitor the issue.
Pidcock asked if the Humane Society had been called about
the situation with the horses. Mr. Sieber said he had
considered it but hadn't done it.
Director of Community Services Lambert said that when the
City first entered into the agreement with H.T.C. on the
horse operation, 6here was extensive discussion regarding
the number of horses in the facility and the handling of
waste material and, further, that such issues were included
in the contract.
Anderson asked if we have the means of sending an inspec-
tor out to check on it. City Manager Jullie said we could
send someone out to inspect it. Anderson said he would
suggest that someone do that and report back. Pidcock
asked who we would send out. Jullie replied that it would
probably be our Animal Control officer, Mr. Snyder.
Anderson said that he would like to have Staff and the
Park Commission take a look from time to time at the opera-
tion of boats on both Bryant Lake and Riley Lake as he felt
there are problems at both lakes. Lambert noted that a
long process had been gone through several years ago to
arrive at the speed ordinance we now have.
MOTION: Anderson moved, seconded by Pidcock, to direct
Staff and the Park, Recreation & Natural Resources Commis-
sion to review the regulations for the operation of motor-
boats on Bryant Lake and Riley Lake and report back to the
Council. Motion carried unanimously.
C. Request by the Wilkies for public access to their land
over Bluffs East 4th and 5th Additions
City Manager Jullie referred to the letter of October 31,
1986 from John C. Rosholt to Mayor Peterson regarding the
request by the Wilkie family for access to their property
over Bluffs East 4th and 5th Additions.
John C. Roshold, an attorney representing the Wilkies, re-
viewed the request. He said they have tried to work out
City Council Minutes -12- November 18, 1986
some arrangement for access with Mr. Hustad as suggested
by the Council in May when approval was given for the Bluffs
East 4th and 5th Addition; however, they have been very dis-
appointed in their efforts. He presented a drawing pre-
pared by an engineering firm depicting means of access to
the Wilkie property.
Peterson asked if the Hustads had been made aware that
this request was on the Agenda tonight. Jullie said he
did not think so.
Pidcock proposed that this be referred to City Attorney
Pauly and that he get back to the Council with recommenda-
tions. Bentley said he agreed with that suggestion and
noted that he thought it was fruitless to discuss this
without both parties being here.
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Redpath, to direct
City Attorney Pauly to research the situation and present
his suggestions at the next Council meeting; to strongly
encourage Mr. Wilkie and Mr. Hustad to resolve this; and
to direct Staff to notify both Wilkie and Hustad when this
item will again be on the Council Agenda so that both par-
ties can be represented. Motion carried unanimously.
D. Request by Quail Ridge project to redeem the Housing
Revenue Bonds issued in 1985 (Resolution No. 86-2:5)
City Manager Jullie referred to the memo of November 14,
1986 from Finance Director Frane reviewing the request
for redemption of $5,565,000 in housing revenue bonds for
the Quail Ridge project. He noted that the proponents were
present to answer questions.
Pidcock asked if this would mean that we would redeem them
or rescind them. Frane replied that we would do neither,
but if the Court orders a mandatory redemption of the bonds,
the City would not object to it.
Gary Fuchs, 3460 Washington Drive in Eagan, noted that the
developers intend to come back to the Council and request
that the Council consider refunding these bonds since the
problem with insurance would have been solved once the
redemption occurs.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Bentley, to adopt Reso-
lution No. 86-285 authorizing the Amendment of A Certain
Trust Indenture Between the City of Eden Prairie and First
Trust Company of St. Paul Relating to the City's $5,565,000
Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds for the Quail Ridge Apart-
ments project. Motion carried unanimously.

VIII. REPORTS OF ADVISORY COMMISSIONS
A. Memo from Development Commission
City Manager Jullie referred to the memo of November 10,
1986 from the Development Commission requesting that Council
review of the charge to the Commission be postponed until
the reorganized Commission has had an opportunity to study
it and recommend changes.
MOTION: Anderson moved, seconded by Redpath, to postpone
Council review of the charge to the Development Commission
until the reorganized Commission has had an opportunity to
study the charge and recommend changes to the Council.
Bentley noted that he thought the recommendation was that
the Development Commission be disbanded. Jullie replied
that the Commission recommended the current membership be
disbanded but that the reconstituted Commission include
those members who have had regular attendance and, further,
that additional appointments would be made in January.
Peterson said he thought disbanding the Commission was an
unnecessary way to get rid of those members who have not
attended meetings or been involved in the work of the Com-
mission. He said a better way would be to have the Council
write a letter to such Commission members stating that
their lack of attendance indicates an unwillingness to
serve on the Commission.
Pidcock noted that she agreed with Mayor Peterson, but, in
addition, she thought they should have a clause in their
by-laws regarding attendance, similar to that of the Human
Rights Commission.
VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Pidcock moved that the Development Commission
adopt the same by-law regarding attendance as the Human
Rights and Services Commission.
Peterson said the Development Commission does not have by-
laws.
Motion died due to lack of a second.
Bentley said either we have to make a code change relative
to mandatory attendance requirements and other items re-
garding the commissions or it is up to the commissions to
establish their own by-laws.
City Council Minutes -14- November 18, 1986
Anderson said from his experience a commission sometimes
does not function as it should because certain people do
not attend. He said he thought at the beginning of the
year the Council should take a look at putting down some
sort of restrictions on all commissions.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to direct
the City Attorney to work with Staff to draft a Code amend-
ment that would create a mandatory attendance requirement
for all advisory commissions.
Pidcock said she didn't think it was up to the Council to
set the by-laws for the commissions. Peterson said he dis-
agreed because the Council appoints the members to serve
as advisory bodies; therefore we have a serious interest
in their performance level.
Redpath called the question.
VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried with Pidcock opposed.
City Attorney Pauly asked for the sentiments of the Council
as to whether failure to attend a certain number of meet-
ings would be cause for automatic revocation of membership
or simply cause for further consideration by the Council.
Peterson said he thought it should not cause automatic
revocation but rather that the Code amendment should in-
clude a process and provision for notification of a mem-
ber that a certain number of meetings have been missed and
if the attendance pattern doesn't change the Council will
assume the person no longer wishes to participate.
IX. APPOINTMENTS
There were none.
X. REPORTS OF OFFICERS, BOARDS & COMMISSIONS
A. Reports of Council Members
1. Design of new City Hall Council Chambers
City Manager Jullie said that they are in the process
of finalizing the floor plans for City Hall and re-
quested input on optional layouts of the Council cham-
bers.
MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Anderson, to con-
tinue discussion of this item to the Special City
Council meeting on Tuesday, November 25, 1986. Motion
carried unanimously.

2. Pidcock - Update on Offer of Old Holasek Home
Director of Community Services Lambert reported that
he had checked out the house, found it to be in very
good condition, and found it to be similar in design
to the Grill house. He said he had forwarded the in-
formation to the Historical & Cultural Commission for
their review and requested the representative from the
State Historical Society to provide information on the
value of the house. He also said he will try to get a
cost estimate from a mover and then will return to the
Council with all the pertinent information such as the
cost to move it, Where it would go and how it would be
used. He said it will probably take a couple of months
to complete the research on it.
B. Report of City Manager
There was no report.
C. Report of City Attorney
City Attorney Pauly noted the I-team report and the response
in the newspaper regarding the handling of misdemeanor
cases which mentioned a case in Eden Prairie. He said he
would be glad to answer any questions on that. There were
no questions.
D. Report of Director of Community Services
1. Edenvale Trail (continued from October 7, 1986)
Director of Community Services Lambert stated that
the following two questions were continued from the
October 7th meeting:
a. EAW Request
b. Trail extension and Bridge at the end of
Hillcrest Court
He said Staff is recommending that, if the EAW request
is approved, the trail extension and bridge question
be continued until the EAW is completed.
James Cullen, 15381 Creekside Court, said the residents
met with City Staff in September, presented their con-
cerns to them at that meeting, and discussed alternative
suggestions. He said that it would be unfair to say
the residents are opposed to trails, but rather they
3H)
City Council Minutes -16- November 18, 1986
are opposed to the plan that was presented. As a re-
sult of that opposition, he said they filed petitions
including a request for an EAW to be done on the en-
tire Purgatory Creek trail system. He summarized their
reasons for wanting the EAW to include the entire trail
development rather than just studying the Edenvale
marsh area.
Cullen said they had suggested to Staff that mowing
of the trails would be acceptable and that they would
like to see the entire perimeter trail mowed. Regarding
the question of a survey, he said he personally does not
believe the survey would do a whole lot; however, the
argument that surveys set bad precedents would also
have to be used against such items as the proposed
survey for City Hall.
Cullen further said that Mr. Lambert has been responsive
to their concerns about a people management plan and
they look forward to working with him on that. He ex-
pressed disappointment that the residents weren't in-
vited into this process since the Council has appointed
a citizens' committee on every other major issue in
the City.
Bentley noted that the Council does not appoint citizens'
committees every time there is an issue before the Coun-
cil and he personally does not believe the Edenvale
marsh is of the significance that would require a City-
wide citizens' committee. He said he thought the re-
quirement to do an EAW on the entire creek corridor is
absurd as we have no idea at this point what the devel-
opment will be along the entire corridor. He also said
he thought the idea of equating a survey in the Edenvale
area to the survey for City Hall was invalid; that each
issue should be judged independently on its own merits.
Anderson noted that this issue started with a develop-
ment proposal that came through, at which time Mr. Lam-
bert was asked to find an appropriate location for a
creek crossing. He said this is part of the planning
to get pedestrians from one area of the City to another
since there is no crossing for pedestrians to get from
Edenvale to Round Lake.
Anderson said in 1972-1974 the City Council directed
that a study of Purgatory Creek be done through the City
commissions for the purpose of making recommendations
for future development of that area. He said the cur-
rent proposal to develop the Edenvale marsh area as a
passive park system was part of that planning done in
1974.
S
City Council Minutes -17- November 18, 1986
Redpath noted that there are large areas along Purga-
tory Creek that will not be able to support a trail and
that we have already completed an over-all study of
Purgatory Creek.
Mr. Cullen responded that they are asking that the
plan be studied from an environmental impact point of
view. He said that the plan is broken into segments
and the law does not allow the Council to segment an
environmental impact project but rather it must be
studied in totality.
City Attorney Pauly said the E.Q.B. rules require that
a project which has a significant impact on the environ-
ment requires the preparation of an EAW. He said the
rules specify the particular types of projects where
an EAW is mandatory and that none of those specific
rules cover the project which is being proposed, not
only with respect to the Edenvale trail itself but
also with respect to the entire corridor. He said
there is a provision whereby the Responsible Govern-
mental Unit (R.G.U.) has the discretion to order an
RAW so that the Council does have the authority to
order an RAW.
Regarding the question of segmenting an environmental
impact project, Pauly said the rules say that actions
consisting of several segments would be considered
phased or related if they would occur within a short
time. He said he had reviewed the proposed actions
within the Purgatory Creek corridor and that most of
the projects appear to be fairly disconnected from one
another; therefore, he did not think this constitutes
a phased or related action.
Bentley asked about the specific recommendation from
Staff. Lambert responded that they are suggesting we
proceed with an RAW on the Edenvale Trail project, not
on the entire creek corridor. He said we don't know
exactly what will be developed along the entire corri-
dor but we do know there will not be trails along the
entire creek.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to direct
Staff to complete an Environmental Assessment Worksheet
(RAW) on the proposed Edenvale Park Trail system and to
continue consideration of the proposed trail extension
and bridge at the end of Hillcrest Court until the com-
pletion of that RAW.
City Council Minutes -18- November 18, 1986
Peterson asked if the EAW could be completed in winter.
Lambert said he would have to check into the questions
on the EAW before determining whether it can be done
at any anytime of the year.
Pidcock asked if we have the funding for the EAW.
Lambert replied that it would be done in house by
Staff.
VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried unanimously.
2. Uses Proposed for Existing City Hall Building
City Manager Jullie reviewed suggestions in the memo
of November 13th from Director of Community Services
Lambert on proposed uses for the existing City Hall
building.
Lambert noted that recent conversations with Helen
Anderson regarding the historical records indicate that
they will require more room for record storage; there-
fore the Community Theatre would have to get by with
filing cabinet space only rather than a separate office.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to approve
the recommendations of Staff for use of the existing
City Hall building by leasing the upper floor and the
old Council Chambers to the School District for the
Family Education Center, and designating the lower
level a Senior Citizen Center with facilities for
historical records storage and Community Theatre use.
Motion carried unanimously.
E. Report of Director of Public Works
1. Consider "No Parking from 2:00 AM to 6:00 AM" on City
Streets
Director of Public Works Dietz reviewed his memo of
November 12, 1986 concerning a proposed parking ban on
City streets between the hours of 2:00 AM and 6:00 AM,
He said more and more communities are enacting such a
parking restriction but that it would probably be
controversial, particularly in certain areas of the
City. He said he wanted to discuss this item with the
Council before preparing the proposed ordinance.
Peterson noted that in most residential areas the plows
don't go through until after 6:00 AM so he was concerned
that such an ordinance would serve the purpose for
which it was intended. Dietz responded that the purpose
City Council Minutes -19- November 18, 1986
would be to make sure that people don't leave cars out
on the street at all and that the 2-inch snow ban would
still be in effect.
Bentley said the important thing is not necessarily to
accommodate our own ease of operating the community
but rather is it in the best interest of the entire
community to enact an ordinance. Dietz responded that,
while that is true, there are several pieces of infor-
mation from Public Safety about the side benefits and
that we did not plan our streets to accommodate parking.
A discussion followed regarding the benefits of such
a ban as well as the problems that might be involved.
Bentley said he thought if we are going to do this, we
would have to draft an ordinance and have a public hear-
ing so that the public would be notified about it. He
said he would like to shelve the issue for the time
being and if there are significant problems with plow-
ing this winter, Staff could come back with the details
and action could be taken at that time.
Anderson said he would also like to go through the win-
ter and receive documentation next spring as to any
problems that occurred before any action is taken by
the Council. He said he would also like to see Public
Safety take a look at this issue.
2. Speed studies in Residential Neighborhoods (Cardinal
Creek, Kristie Lane and Duck Lake Road) Continued from October 7, 1986
Director of Public Works Dietz referred to the Staff
report to the Council on this subject dated October,
1986 and said that after reviewing the literature avail-
able on speed control, he had determined that stop signs
are not a very effective means of speed control. He
said most of the requests have been for stop signs ex-
cept that Cardinal Creek residents had requested 20 MPH
speed limits; however, that would require a petition to
the State Commissioner of Transportation to conduct a
study of the situation. He said, further, that Public
Safety review of the Cardinal Creek area revealed that
the average speed is only 23 MPH anyway.
Regarding the Duck Lake Road request, Dietz said it had
been determined that no traffic sign there would have
prevented the fatality on that road. As indicated in
his report, Staff is recommending that we consider a
higher level of enforcement by Public Safety on this
City Council Minutes -20- November 18, 1986
road. He said Public Safety is continuing to monitor
the traffic situation there.
Dietz said they are recommending that no additional
signs be installed at Kristie Lane as there appears
to be no increase in speeds or traffic volume that
would warrant such installation.
The consensus of the Council was that Mr. Dietz had
prepared a very thorough and excellent report on this
subject.
Dietz said that after his research on this problem,
he is recommending that we re-evaluate our position
on sidewalks in neighborhoods because sidewalks provide
a place for the children to play. He said they are
recommending that neighborhoods without sidewalks con-.
eider a special assessment to install them, especially
those areas in which sidewalks could be installed
easily.
Anderson said he thought this was a problem in many
neighborhoods, not just the three under discussion.
Redpath noted that sidewalks had been a concern for
many years.
Roger Swigart, 13184 Cardinal Creek Road, noted that
there are sidewalks in portions of the Cardinal Creek
neighborhood. He said there is a lot of supportive
data against unnecessary signs but he believed there
are some areas where signs are necessary. He said if
there is a problem relative to the speed of traffic,
then sidewalks won't help. He also said he would like
to see stop signs put in at the Sandridge and Cardinal
Creek intersection and at the Cardinal Creek cul-de-
sac and see how it goes.
Pidcock noted that there are two stop signs on Duck
Lake Road at the present time.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to direct
Staff to take a closer look at the intersections in the
Cardinal Creek neighborhood to see if safety and traf-
fic control concerns would be met by signage at those
intersections.
Peterson said he would like to see a report and more
data that makes it conclusive that signs are needed
and would be potentially productive.
Anderson said if this is a concern in this community,
then it should be made part of a public hearing on
City Council Minutes
speed zones. He said he would like to have crosswalks
painted in if we are going to install stop signs.

MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Pidcock, to approve the
Agenda as amended and published. Motion carried unanimously.
II. JOINT DISCUSSION WITH EDEN PRAIRIE SCHOOL BOARD
Mayor Peterson thanked the School Administration for their
hospitality and turned the discussion over to Superintendent
McCoy.
A. School District's Building Plans and Referendum Schedule
Dr. McCoy reviewed the long-range facility plans for the
School District, noting that their planning is based on an
eventual decline in enrollment. He said they are planning
to move their Family Center to the existing City Hall some-
time in 1987 if the City will allow them to lease the upper
level of that building. He also said they are planning
another elementary school in the southwest quadrant near
City Hall and a new Intermediate School for 5th and 6th
grades on their new site near Hwy. 169 and Anderson Lakes
Parkway.
McCoy said they are planning a bond referendum, possibly
for about $23 million, in October of 1987 for the fourth
elementary school, the 5th and 6th grade Intermediate
School, possible remodeling of the High School and possibly
providing for a kindergarten center. He said they are
City Council Minutes -2- November 25, 1986
considering putting all the needs together so that there
will be only one package for a referendum.
Peterson asked if the projected 7, 8 or 9 milllevy covers
both the additional building cost as well as staffing.
McCoy said it has nothing to do with staffing, that staff-
ing is controlled by the State and property-rich districts
such as Eden Prairie and Edina pay 100% of the costs.
Peterson asked what the tax impact would be on the City.
Merle Gamin, Business Director for the School District,
said there should be no material change in impact on the
City, that it should get no higher than 9 mills.
Anderson said he had observed that other communities en-
counter zoning problems when kindergarten centers are
sold and he asked Dr. McCoy where they would put such a
facility here. McCoy said, while they have no particular
property in mind and are not sure they will purchase the
property rather than lease, they will keep in mind that
they don't want to get into a zoning problem.
Pidcock said she thought their plan makes a lot of sense;
however, after hearing a lot of comments about property
taxes, she was concerned that all of these things we are
doing will have a great impact on property owners, particu-
larly those in the over-$175,000 category. McCoy said
that, to him, it is a matter of maintaining their invest-
ment so that they can resell their homes.
Peterson asked if there was any violation of an educational
rationale by shifting different mixes of grades together.
McCoy said he did not believe they were violating any prin-
ciple and that most parents agree with a shift of the 6th
grade down to be with the 5th and the 9th grade back with
7th and 8th.
Pidcock asked if there was a social implication by having
kindergartners all by themselves. McCoy said that, while
he would prefer they be in the regular schools, they be-
lieve the best grade to pull out is the kindergartners
who are there half days and don't eat lunch at school.
Bentley asked if they had made a commitment to the bond
referendum for October, 1987. McCoy said they expect to
firm up their plans to see what will be included in the
overall plan after the first of the year with a final de-
cision in July and a possible referendum in early October.
City Council Minutes -3- November 25, 1986
Boardmember Jack Van Remortel said that, thanks to the
School Board members who served 6-8 years ago and addressed
such issues as the renting of a building, the Board has
the respect and understanding of the community when changes
are suggested or new facilities are needed.
Boardmember Dave Anderson said the Board has talked about
how much to put together but he thought it would be ludi-
crous to have one referendum and then return six months
later with another one.
City Manager Jullie asked what the impact of the proposed
milllevy would be on the T.I.F. district. McCoy said the
more important impact would be on the staffing and that
there would be a greater base in terms of pay-off.
B. City's Potential Referendum Needs and Schedule
City Manager Jullie said that the committee commissioned
two years ago to investigate the needs of the City recom-
mended priorities and timing for bond referenda. He said
there are significant needs to be addressed in addition
to the City Hall needs.
Jullie said there is a committee presently working on a
recreation facilities referendum which will include im-
provements at the Community Center, acquisition of park
property and land for a ball field complex as well as
other improvements throughout the community such as trails
and park development. He said the committee is expected
to recommend consideration of a referendum next March with
a potential request of about $8,000,000.
Jullie noted that the City will be leasing space for City
Hall starting in January for a period of three years; how-
ever he thought the record will show owning a building to
be much preferable to leasing one. He said there is another
committee studying the long-range plans for City Hall;
their recommendations should be made in January or February
and may include a recommendation for a referendum two years
from now on City Hall.
Jullie said other future needs could include another fire
station to serve the southwest sector of the City, probably
in five years or so, and possibly some type of recreation
and golf course facility. He said the City projects that
our assessed valuation will be sufficient to cover our
other General Fund operating needs.
Jullie noted that there are some additional transportation
needs in the Major Center Area that have not yet been
• City Council Minutes -4- November 25, 1986
addressed. He said the T.I.F. program was developed to
put the basics of the road system together, but there are
other needs the specific funding of which has not yet been
identified. He noted the T.I.F. district is capturing
about 10-12% of our assessed valuation. He said he wanted
to leave the door open to continuing the T.I.F. program
for a few years. In addition, he said he had just re-
ceived word that there may be a delay in a portion of the
Hwy. 5 improvements unless the City can come up with some
funding for the design of the project. He reiterated that
transportation is a critical need for the community.
Bentley commented that one of the major issues we continue
to fight in this community is fiscal disparities; that
we are literally being robbed of millions of dollars in
taxes because of fiscal disparities. He suggested that the
community should join in a mutual effort to put pressure
on the legislature to make changes in the system.
Van Remortel said the second half of that effort with the
legislature is to work towards the dedication of motor ve-
hicle excise taxes to the highway department so that pro-
jects like Hwy. 5 can be completed. Bentley noted that,
unfortunately, there is a lot of pressure now to not con-
tinue to increase that transfer.
Van Remortel asked Jullie about the time frame for utili-
ties to serve the southwest corner of the community. Jullie
said the contracts have not been let but are scheduled for
this spring. Van Remortel asked if it will be a phased
project and who is the contracting agency. Jullie said
the Waste Control Agency is the contracting agency and
they will determine whether it will be phased or not.
Jullie said the City will provide some administrative help
and such things as inspections.
Bentley asked if the line is going to go near the proposed
school site. Jullie said there would have to be an exten-
sion. Van Remortel said he thought they were within 1000
feet.
Boardmember Claude Johnson asked where the City is with
regard to long-term debt. Jullie said we expect our mil
rate to stay at about 19-20 mills to support our operating
costs. He said any sort of capital improvements will add
to our 20 mill levy.
Redpath noted the importance of the user fees for sewer and
water. Jullie said the utility system is independent from
the general property tax levy in that we have special
City Council Minutes -5- November 25, 1986
assessments and user fees to support it; however, if those
items fall short, it will come back on the general tax.
Jullie said this points out that development is critical
to the City in a lot of ways.
Boardmember Phyllis Posner noted that continuing the T.I.F.
may have a detrimental effect on their programming. Board-
member Rick Wolf commented that they are suffering from a
sort of fiscal disparities program which yields Eden Prairie
fewer dollars per student than neighboring districts and
that the T.I.F. district would tend to compound that dif-
ference. He said he thought we should get together on a
team effort to make changes.
Councilmember Anderson asked Dr. McCoy if there was any
way we can work together on the expansions of the High
School and the Community Center. McCoy said they are hop-
ing the City will build a gymnasium facility in the Commun-
ity Center so that they could use the facility during the
school day and for after-school activities. He said if the
City does not get those facilities, the School District will
have to build them.
Boardmember Sharon Gluschenko asked if any thought had been
given to including a teen center in the recreation facili-
ties. Peterson said there was none in the present consider-
ations. City Manager Jullie said that was a good point and
that input such as this should be brought up at the neigh-
borhood meetings being planned by the Recreation Facilities
Committee.
Boardmember Anderson noted that the expanded Community
Center could accommodate some of the activities that might
be associated with a teen center.
Councilmember Anderson said we are talking about structures
but we should talk about problems and needs sometimes to
make sure that the structures will meet the needs of the
community. He said this is one of the areas that might
benefit from joint committee involvement.
Van Remortel said his perception of City facilities has
always been of "athletic facilities" and that the emphasis
should be on "recreational facilities" since not everyone
is involved in athletic programs.
Pidcock asked McCoy if she was correct in her understanding
that their proposed new facility will be a multi-purpose
building that can be used for things other than classroom
City Council Minutes -6- November 25, 1986
use. McCoy replied that they expect the community to use
the neighborhood schools but that will not reduce the need
for the City's recreational facilities.
Redpath said he hoped that the City and the School District
will work with the business community on plans as taxes are
a great concern for area businesses.
Peterson noted that it is good to share and ask questions in this manner and that the information and involvement at
tonight's meeting was appreciated.
The joint discussion ended at 7:25 PM.
III. CITY MANAGER'S REPORT
A. Report on Conferences Attended
Bentley noted that he was impressed by the number of con-
ferences City Manager Jullie had attended this year. Peter-
son said he was very pleased with the completeness of the
summary Mr. Jullie provided.
Anderson said he would strongly encourage Mr. Jullie as
well as all department heads to continue to attend such
conferences. Because of the constant changes in all areas
of public government, he felt attendance at conferences
should be made a part of management policy and should also
become part of their evaluation.
A discussion followed in which Councilmembers asked Mr.
Jullie questions regarding certain points in his report
and commented on the concepts he presented.
Bentley said he thought Mr. Jullie is doing a good job of
what we asked him to do and that he agreed with Mr. Ander-
son that some sort of program should be started to include
department heads.
Peterson asked if there is now such a program for depart-
ment heads that is included in their evaluations. Jullie
responded that he had asked them to look for these oppor-
tunities and that most of them do attend such seminars and
conferences.
Pidcock noted that, as part of her licensing, she has to
attend up to 15 hours of continuing education per year. She
thought there should be a specified minimum number of hours
of continuing education for department heads each year in
order to keep current.
City Council Minutes -7- November 25, 1986
Jullie said that he will be meeting with department heads
before the end of December for their review time and he
would include continuing education in those discussions
in addition to the goals included on tonight's Agenda as a
separate item.
B. Review of Goals for 1987
Bentley noted that he was concerned about the wording of
Item I. 10, regarding arrangements in the Flying Cloud
Landfill expansion permit request. He said it seems to
establish a policy that the City is going to follow rather
than the current policy. A discussion followed regarding
the rewording of this item.
The consensus of the Council was that the review of goals
required a lot of time and effort from Mr. Jullie and that
he had produced an outstanding document.
Bentley said that, relative to Item 2 of the suggested
City Council goals regarding a strategic planning process,
he would like to see a time schedule as to how we are go-
ing to proceed on this. He said he hoped that the Council
would be doing this rather than relying on committees or
outside consultants.
Peterson asked if he meant we should not hire a consultant
to help us. Bentley said he thought the actual planning
process should be done by the Council as opposed to hiring
a consultant to prepare a plan for Council approval.
Peterson asked if the Council would be amenable to an ex-
tended meeting time for this, such as all day Saturday.
Bentley said he wasn't prepared to determine that at this
time but rather was hoping Mr. Jullie would return with a
proposed timetable as to how we could establish a strategic
plan with the understanding that it will require special
meetings.
As part of the strategic planning, Peterson said he would
like to have some discussion on Council attendance at con-
ferences and discussion to clarify the responsibilities of
the Mayor as similar or different from those of the other
Councilmembers. A discussicn followed regarding whether
there was a difference in those responsibilities. The con-
sensus was that it would be a good point to discuss during
the strategic planning process.
C. Salary Review (Continued from October 21, 1986)
City Council Minutes -8- November 25, 1986
Bentley noted that the requested base rate adjustme
n
t
o
f
$2,500 effective January 1, 1987 would bring Mr. Jul
l
i
e
'
s
salary up to the 1986 mean.
MOTION! Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to appr
o
v
e
a base rate adjustment of $2,500 to City Manager Jul
l
i
e
'
s
salary effective January 1, 1987. Motion carried un
a
n
i
-
mously.
Bentley noted that he was concerned about the sugges
t
e
d
automatic base rate adjustment of $2,500 on January
1
s
t
o
f
each year. He said he would prefer to continue the
c
u
r
r
e
n
t
process whereby Council reviews the salary and makes
a
d
-
justments on an annual basis. Discussion followed r
e
g
a
r
d
-
ing the suggested automatic adjustment. The consens
u
s
w
a
s
to continue the current process.
Peterson said he thought it was important to set a r
e
g
u
l
a
r
time for Mr. Jullie's performance review and suggest
e
d
t
h
a
t
it be the first Council meeting in June of each year
.
Bentley said he thought the City Manager should come
t
o
u
s
with a salary request that would be effective Janua
r
y
1
each year, possibly as early as October so that we
c
a
n
start the review process.
Anderson said he thought it was important to set a
n
e
n
d
i
n
g
date to the process as well as a starting date. Pe
t
e
r
s
o
n
said Mr. Jullie suggested that the performance revi
e
w
b
e
conducted at the first meeting in June which would
m
e
a
n
the process would have to begin in January or Febru
a
r
y
.
Pidcock asked Sharon Gluschenko, who was in the aud
i
e
n
c
e
,
what the normal procedure was. Ms Gluschenko said
i
t
w
a
s
important to separate the performance review from th
e
salary action.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Pidcock, to set
t
h
e
first Regular City Council meeting in February as th
e
d
a
t
e
to begin the City Manager's performance review, at w
h
i
c
h
time the performance documents will be reviewed for
v
a
l
i
d
i
t
y
and the procedure will be set as to when the docume
n
t
s
w
i
l
l
be passed out and returned. Motion carried unanimou

.
D. New Council Chambers Plan (Continued from November 18, 1986)
City Manager Jullie said he would like some general
d
i
r
e
c
-
tion on the layout of the Council chambers as to the
a
r
r
a
n
g
e
-
ment and whether there should be a raised platform f
o
r
t
h
e
Council. He said we still have the old Council tabl
e
b
u
t
he considers it to be too small.
City Council Minutes -9- November 25, 1986
Anderson said he didn't want to go to any more expense
than necessary since we probably won't be in the building
more than three years.
Peterson noted that the room is 48 feet long; therefore,
it would make sense to have a platform so that people in
the back of the room could see the Council.
Redpath noted that the U-shaped arrangement allows the
Councilmembers to look more directly at each other than
the one we are using now. A discussion followed regarding
the benefits of using a U-shaped table.
Peterson said he didn't think there was a requirement for
Staff to have good eye contact with the audience but the
question of where to put the Staff is very important in
the new arrangement.
Pidcock said she didn't think it was fair to expect Staff
to stand up to make their presentations since they often
have a lot of resource material. She thought they should
be able to sit at a particular place that would allow com-
munication with the Council. She also noted that she was
not in favor of a raised platform because it appears to
raise the Council above the public.
Bentley said he did object to the Staff having their backs
to the audience because the people in the audience are the
reason for having the Council meeting.
Anderson said he liked the old arrangement at City Hall
better than this one because viewing is difficult from
his present perspective. He said he would like to get an
arrangement so that the viewing of a screen or display is
easy for everyone. He said that sound is also important.
Bentley noted that his personal preference would be Alter-
nate B because the arrangement has a raised platform, makes
use of the old table, allows for a nice-sized presentation
area, and provides the Recording Secretary a good position
to see and hear what is going on. A discussion of Alternate
B followed.
Jullie noted that we could try different arrangements if the
raised platform was not constructed right away. Bentley
said we could raise the platform once we found out which
arrangement works the best. The consensus was to try dif-
ferent arrangements to see which one works out the best.
Nevember 25, 1986
City Council Minutes -10-

M
as the date and time at which sealed bids will be receiv

MOTIONi Redpath moved, seconded by Bentley, to adopt
Re-Solution No. 86-297 -, providing for the Public Sale of
$2,300,000 General Obligation Building Bonds; $1,700,00
0

• NEW BUSINESS
.'Peterson said he had received a phone call from a resident

s
and did not want a lengthy discussion on it as it wasn't
a
n
Agenda item.
City Manager Jullie said that a significant amount of er
o
s
i
o
n
had occurred on Riverview Road east of the landfill. He
s
a
i
d
that a 200-foot long section of the road has broken off,

Brown Land Company has requested City Council approval of the

Eaton Addition
South of Highway #5, north and west of Technology Drive, east of
Wallace Road.
Eaton Corporation
Preliminary Plat of 46.8 acres into two lots.
Background
This site is currently designated on
the Eden Prairie Comprehensive Guide
Plan for Industrial type land uses.
The property is zoned 1-5 Park and
is the location of the Eaton
Industrial complex. Surrounding
properties in all directions are
also guided for Industrial type land
uses and are developed as such.
Specific land uses in the area
Include the Eden Praire Industrial
center, zoned 1-2 Park to the west;
Roberts Litho and the Hoyt Roberts
2nd Addition, zoned 1-2 Park to the
south; the Cooperative Power
Association complex, zoned I-5 Park
to the east; and Highway #5 located
to the north of the site. The
proponent is requesting the sub-
division of the 46.8-acre site into
two lots to allow for the sale of
the existing 66,000 square foot
concrete building located in the
southern corner.
Preliminary Plat
The preliminary plat depicts the
division of approximately 46 acres
Eaton Addition November 21, 1986
Staff is recomnending the approval of the request of the Eaton Corporation for the
subdivision of approximately 46.83 acres into two lots based on plans dated November
4, 1986, and subject to the following conditions:
Into two lots. The division of this parcel into two lots would meet the minimum
requirements of the I-5 zoning district. Lot 1 would contain approximately 32 acres
and remain under the ownership of the Eaton Corporation. There are two existing
buildings on Lot 1 with a total of approximately 230,000 square feet of building.
Access to Lot 1 will be from State Highway #5 and also a driveway easement off
Technology &rive. Lot 2, containing approximately 14.67 acres, is the location of
an existing 66,000 square foot building which is currently vacant and proposed for
sale by the Eaton Corporation. Lot 2 will be primarily served from the driveway
easement off Technology Crive. As part of the platting process, proponent will be
required to file a drivewq easement and a cross access agreement for Lot 2 for•access purposes. These easements will be required concurrent with the final
platting process.
Two areas of concern in reviewing the plat include the ponding areas located within
each of the two lots and also the absence of public utilities to the existing 66,000
square foot building. In regards to ponding, Staff is concerned that there are no outflows from these two basins. Staff requires, as part of the platting process, that a detailed storm water drainage plan be developed for these two ponding basins.
Secondly, Staff is requiring that, prior to the release of the final plat, water and
sanitary sewer connections be made to the existing 66,000 square foot concrete
building.
STAFF RECCt4MENOATI0NS
1. As part of the platting process, proponent shall file a driveway and cross
access agreement for purposes of providing access to the existing 66,000
square foot concrete building located on Lot 2.
As part of the platting process, proponent shall dedicate the right-of-way
required for the Technology Drive cul-de-sac.
3. Prior to the release of the final plat, proponent shall provide Staff with a
detailed storm water drainage plan for the two ponding basins.
4. Prior to the release of the final plat, proponent will be required to
provide water and sanitary sewer connections to the existing 66,000 square
foot office building proposed for sale.

PROJECT: Suburban National Bank
LOCATION: Southwest quadrant of the intersection of Anderson Lakes Parkway and
County Road #18.
APPLICANT/ Supplee's 7-Hi Enterprises, Inc.
FEE OWNER: Richard W. Gibson
REQUEST: 1. Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Low Density Residential
to Office on approximately one acre.
2. Zoning District Change from Rural to Office on approximately
one acre.
3. Preliminary Plat of approximately one acre into one lot.
4. Variances for parking to be reviewed by Board of Appeals.
Background
The Comprehensive Guide Plan depicts
this site as a Low Density
Residential land use. Surrounding
land uses are guided Community
Commercial to the north and Low
Density Residential to the west and
south of this site. Land is
currently zoned and planned for
commercial to the east of the site
within the City limits of Blooming-
ton. This site is currently zoned
rural.
Comprehensive Guide Plan Change
The request for Comprehensive Guide
Plan Change is from Low Density
Residential to Commercial. The pro-
ponent believes: 1) The proposed
usage is a service oriented office
land use and is an extension of an
1.=
Suburban National Bank 2 November 21, 1986
existing commercial area. 2) The proposed land use is semi-residential in c
h
a
r
a
c
t
e
r
and in scale. 3) The construction of the building would represent a
n
a
t
u
r
a
l
transition between residential neighborhoods, County Road #18, and the
P
r
e
s
e
r
v
e
Village Center. 4) Construction of the proposed land use will also pr
o
v
i
d
e
a
n
increase in financial and health care services to the community. 5) The
b
u
i
l
d
i
n
g
and site plan, in its design, acts as an effective transition from resident
i
a
l
a
r
e
a
s
to the existing commercial areas and highway.
The Comprehensive Guide Plan Change is an issue of how the proposed land u
s
e
w
o
u
l
d
fit in with the surrounding neighborhood since the site is small and will no
t
h
a
v
e
a
noticeable effect on the Comprehensive Guide Plan balance. Any use other t
h
a
n
l
o
w
density will have impacts on the adjoining residential neighborhoods. A p
o
s
s
i
b
l
e
way to justify a Comprehensive Guide Plan Change would be through to the ext
e
n
t
t
h
a
t
mitigating measures make the commercial proposal acceptable in this location.
The impacts on the neighborhood are visual because of the proximity to the
a
d
j
a
c
e
n
t
single family homes. The building is 30 feet from the property line and wi
t
h
i
n
7
5
feet of the nearest residential structure. The size of the building is 11,7

f
e
e
t
compared to approximately 2,003 square feet for the adjoining single family
h
o
m
e
s
.
The proponents feel that through building architecture and landscapi
n
g
,
t
h
e
intrusions into the neighborhood can be downplayed. Sloping the adjoining gro
u
n
d
u
p
to the building helps reduce the building height. No windows on the backs
o
f
t
h
e
building contributes to neighborhood privacy. The use of landscaping with e
m
p
h
a
s
i
s
on large conifer trees can soften the visual intrusion.
The proponents feel that this site can be considered as an extension
o
f
t
h
e
commercial area to the north, not only because of the uses proposed, b
u
t
a
l
s
o
because of the physical attachment to the parking lot through use of shared a
c
c
e
s
s
.
On the other hand, this arguement has been used before with other Guide Plan
C
h
a
n
g
e
requests. Though small piece-meal extension of land uses may seem harmless, t
h
r
o
u
g

the domino effect, may contribute to the over-commercialization of the inters

o
n
at Anderson Lakes Parkway and County Road #18 which is not currently contempl

at a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 0.28. The building, as proposed, meets the

driveway location to the south property line may prompt requests for commercial uses
on this site to the south. The access onto County Road #18 would require the
construction of a deceleration and acceleration lane plus a left-turn lane for
northbound approaches from County Road #18.
Access through the Preserve Village Center parking lot will result in a
reconfiguration of the entrance to improve internal circulation and to minimize
traffic movement conflicts. Internal circulation does not work well at the Anderson
Lakes driveway entrance because vehicles back directly into the main entrance. The
first twelve stalls should be removed in order to create a better protected lane and
relocated elsewhere on-site.
Traffic
The traffic study which describes the impact of the proposal on the affected
roadways and intersections. The study states that left turns to northbound County
Road #18, are at level of service F, and that access out of the site should be
limited to a right-out only. This would restrict the left turns at the intersection
and divert the traffic to Anderson Lakes Parkway through the Preserve Village Center
parking area. The traffic study indicates that the increase in traffic at the
County Road #18-Anderson Lakes Parkway intersection would amount to less than 4%
increase in the total traffic entering the intersection during the p.m. peak hour.
The intersection is operating at level of service F.
Architecture
The proposed two-story building will appear one-story from the residential area due
to the sloping nature of the ground up to the building. The building will appear as
two-story from County Road #18. The building is proposed to be constructed of
brick, wood, and rock face block. The elevations depict wood and block as occupying
more than 25% of the building exterior. Although the building has some residential
elements, it appears to have a commercial character. The wall facing the
residential area is essentially flat with a small roof pitch at the top of the wall.
Since site lines from the adjacent single family homes look onto the roof,
mechanical equipment should be located within the building.
Landscaping
The landscape ordinance requires a caliper inch requirement based upon the size of
the building and a screening requirement for parking and loading facilities. Parking
and loading areas are effectively screened from County Road #18. The visual
transition to the adjoining land uses is proposed to be accomplished through mass
plantings. The use of landscaping as a transition should not only be functional in
terms of downplaying the building mass, but should also be visually pleasing as
well. The use of 14 to 16-foot high conifers provides for year-around transition;
however, the spacing of the plant material is wide and the plan would benefit from
additional coniferous trees at a similar height, with a maximum center-to-center
spacing of twelve feet. The plan would also benefit from other plant materials
including flowering shrubs and annual and perennial flowers. This will provide
color and variety during the spring, summer, and fall months when there will be a
lot of activity within the backyards of the adjoining residential homes.
There is no landscape transition to the south. The plan benefits from additional
large shade trees to augment the proposed screening fence.
Suburban National Bank 4 November 21, 1986
Utilities
Water is immediately available to this site. Sewer service is located approximately
600 feet to the south and will require extension through the adjoining properties.
The developer should be required to pay for all costs for the sewer extension.
Storm water run-off is proposed to sheet drain across the parking lot into catch
basins which are connected to an existing storm sewer system within the Preserve
Village Center.
Lighting
A lighting plan has been submitted that includes two lighting standards of 18 feet
in height. Though the glare is contained within the limits of the property,
residents will see a lighted area at night. Since the size of the proposed parking
area is small, and there is overflow light from the adjoining parking lot, the
lighting standards should be reduced further in height and also be downcast cut-off
luminars. The proponents should study the possibility of using bollard lighting on
this property.
Conclusions
Relative to the Comprehensive Guide Plan Change, the Staff Report raises the
following issues:
1. Has a Comprehensive Guide Plan Change been adequately substantiated by the
proponent?
2. Is the site plan acceptable as proposed?
3. What is the highest and best final use of the property?
The proponent states that a Guide Plan Change has been substantiated since the land
uses proposed are consistent with community commercial zoning and the adjoining
property and that site plan transitions well to the adjoining neighborhood through a
building design that is residential in character and landscaping which downplays the
massiveness of the building. Commission must decide if community cormiercial land
uses are appropriate on this site and does the proposed use transition work.
The site plan, as proposed, may benefit from smaller lighting standards to reduce
glare, and additional and different types of landscaping to augment the proposed
plantings to downplay the massiveness of the building and to provide for a more
visually pleasing landscape buffer during the active seasons for the adjoining
residential properties. Commission must decide if the site plan, as proposed,
provides enough mitigating measures to offset the inpacts on the adjoining single
family area.
The highest and best use of the property depends upon how well the plan mitigates
the impacts on the adjoining neighborhoods and whether or not the uses proposed can
be considered appropriate and an extension of the existing community comnercial land
uses to the north of the site. The use of this property will surely impact the
development of the remaining five acres to the south. The project contributes
traffic to the Anderson Lakes Parkway/County Road #18 intersection which is already
at level of Service F. Though building architecture appears commercial, landscaping
helps soften the massive appearance.

STAFF RECOMENDATIONS
If the Planning Comnission feels that the request for Conprehensive Guide Plan
Change has been substantiated, then approval should be based upon the site plan, as
proposed, and reconmendations in the Staff Report, for landscape plan and lighting.
There may be other ways of making the site more transitional. Approval, then, would
be based upon the following:
1. Prior to City Council review, the proponent shall:
A. Modify the landscape plan to provide additional large coniferous
plantings along the west property line and introduce flowering
shrubs and flowers. Along the south property line add additional
large overstory shade trees.
B. Revise the overall lighting plan to minimize the height of the
lighting standards. Consideration should be given to the use of
bollard lighting.
C. Revise building plans to show more residential character especially
towards the single family side.
D. Modify the entrance to the shopping center by removing twelve
parking spaces in order to create a better protected lane.
2. Prior to Final Plat approval, proponent shall:
A. Submit detailed storm water run-off, erosion control, and utility
plans for review by the City Engineer.
B. Submit detailed storm water run-off and erosion control plans for
review by the Watershed District.
3. Prior to Building permit issuance, proponent shall:
A. Pay the appropriate Cash Park Fee.
B. Notify the City and Watershed District at least 48 hours in advance
of grading.
C. Submit plans for review by the Fire Marshal.
If the Planning Comnission feels that the Comprehesive Guide Plan Change has not
been adequately substantiated and the impacts on-site, the surrounding land uses,
roadways, and the Guide Plan balance are significant, Commission may choose to
recommend denial of the request as submitted.
If the Planning Commission feels that there may be additional ways in which the site
plan can be made to be more appropriate and further mitigate the impacts on the
adjoining residential land use, then the Planning Commission may choose to recommend
that the plans be returned to the proponent for revisions.

Dear Mayor and City Council:
As residents of the Preserve, we are writing to express OPPOSITION
TO THE REQUEST FOR ZONING CHANGE to office on 1.09 acres
and from rural to office on 1.09 acres. We are opposed to the request
for building the Suburban National Bank/Preserve Medical Building
at this location and would refer the developer to available land in
the Eden Prairie Center area. We feel that Gointy Road 18 traffic
does not need any additional encumbrances. We also feel that changing
zoning status is a dangerous precedent to start. What would prevent
further changes In other areas for other self serving interest .groups?
We request that this letter be made part of the file regarding this
proposal and also request that this letter be made part of the public
record prior to the public hearing on November 24, 1986. Thank you
for your attention in this matter.
Sincerely,

TO: The Planning Commission and City Council of EdeW.Prairie
,RE: This letter is in reference to the proposed office building which Would
.house the Suburban National Bank on .County Rd. 18 south of Anderson Lakes
Pkwy.
As we have met with the architects of this project many times, and as the
neighborhood has discussed the why's and wherefore's over and over again,
we find ourselves reservedly in favor of an office building as it has been
presented to us. However, there are a number of things we are very concerned
about and feel that if these are not properly dealt with, we would not be in
favor of this proposal. Most of these items have been discussed with the
architects sometime at the various meetings. We ask you, also, to address •
these Issues as you consider this project.
1. Whether there is adequate space for the project is still questionable.
The fact that they are having to borrow parking space from the adjacent
mall would bear that out.
2. With that in mind, we are concerned about the building's being a two-story
building. We would like to recommend a one-story building instead. Let
me draw your attention to another office zone adjacent to a residential
area at the intersection of County Rd. 4 and Hwy. 5. Though that is a
much busier intersection than the one under consideration, and there is
much more land area there, the offices are still one-story buildings. How
could this smaller area be adequate for a two-story building if the other
was not? In spite of the efforts in screening, it still sets a precedence
for future buildings to the south, as well.
3. The building is planned to be 30 feet inside the property line. That gives
them a "back yard" of less than half of what a single family residence has
on a 150-feet deep lot (if the house is set back 30 feet in front). This
means that we would be looking at a two-story structure that is twice the
size of the homes in our neighborhood with less than half the usual space
separating us. (The building was set back on the lot in order to get the
drive-up in the front of the building. We had drawn their attention to
the fumes from the cars sitting along our property line and had requested
they move the drive-up window to the front of the building.)
4. Screening: At our last meeting with the architects, they agreed to elimin-
ate windows on thewest side of the building (the side of the residences).
That is good. However, we also expressed that we do not want to look at
an expanse of blank wall, either. They suggested that landscaping would
take care of that, but we believe it should be taken care of in the structure
Itself. Perhaps a curving or staggered brick wall would add some beauty and
Interest.
5. Berming: We are concerned that the south boundary line be treated in equal
manner as the west. They have shown us a three-feet berm with a three-
feet fence on top, neither of which would keep people from climbing over
it and cutting through our property. We feel their treatment of that
boundary is still inadequate.
To: the planning CoMmistIon and tity tounCil:Of "Eden Prairie'
" •
6. No Mention has been Made to us:abeitit mechanical equipment, such as air
.conditioning and "heating units etc -We do not With to look out of our
windows across to this equipment on the roof of. their building. We are
equally concerned about thenoise.lif thitequipMent, especially In the
summer when the windows are open.'
_
Parking: The last plan we saw showed the parking very close to the
residences : We ask YoU -/O:cOnsider the noise lector as it relates
to traffic ; tar doors 'slamming shut every halfhour ., •car engines,
.thd tnew plowing: Along thit line, we would like to suggest parking
" underneath the building. (Plowing •at Jerry's mall takes place'at
11:00pm tomidnight„1 "
We are concerned that we neither see, smell, or hear garbage and garbage
pick-up. "Currently, Jerry's mall pick-up is at 500 a.m. with dumpsters
banging as they are dropped. This is not acceptable to us.
"Lighting: We've asked the architects to make the parking lot lighting
low. The current ones en Jerry's mall shine right into the bedrooms
along :that tide. "
10 :Property Values: Our neighbors had an appraisal done on their house with
the intention of selling, and it came in at a $10,000 less. Our other
neighbors were not able to sell theirs at all, though it was on the
" market all spring and into the fall. Jerry's mall has already caused the
value of our properties to go down". Anything else that goes in next to
us will further affect it. Considering our life savings are at stake
here, please consider very carefully what you allow to gain before :
you do it.
As you consider the best use of this parcel of land: adjacent to. our property,
we ask that you 1) do not change the guiding and zoning of the:entire area
at once, and 21 that youOefinitely do "not consider multiple housing beyond
duplexes. We would much rather have small offices there with regular office
hours than other peoples' laundry, music, and:partiesat:all hours and on
weekends.
As you Consider this proposed bank and office project, I ask you to address"
carefully the issues which have been itemized here. Thank:you for your time
and attention.

UNAPPROVED MINUTES OF NOVEMBER 24, 1986 PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
III. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS
A. SUBURBAN NATIONAL BANK/PRESERVE MEDICAL BUILDING, by Supplee's 7-H
Enterprises, Inc. Request for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change fro
Low Density Residential to Office on 1.09 acres, Zoning Distric
Change from Rural to Office on 1.09 acres with variances to b
reviewed by the Board of Appeals and Preliminary Plat of 1.09 acre
Into one lot for the construction of a two-story office building
Location: South of Anderson Lakes Parkway, west of County Road #18
A continued public hearing.
Mr. Ron Erickson, representing proponent, reviewed the proposed developmen
with the Commission. He stated that he did not believe the property shout , be developed as Low Density Residential, which was the designated land us(
according to the Comprehensive Guide Plan. He stated that the reasons fcr
this included that there were better sites for Low Density Residentia
development within the community, the property was located adjacent t(
County Road #18 and would be subject to traffic noise, and that the cost o .
the land was high, prohibiting purchase of the property for Low Densit:
Residential purposes.
Mr. Erickson stated that this building was proposed for office use and tha
the use would be a "quiet neighbor" in the evening and on weekends. H(
added that this would not necessarily be true for a commercial use, or for ,
multiple family use.
In meetings with neighbors, Mr. Erickson stated that three concern!
surfaced, including concern about automobile circulation so close to homes
for screening of the structure from the existing single family residents
and privacy with respect to the sight lines into their homes from th(
proposed structure. He stated that, due to these concerns, severe'
modifications were made to the plans. Circulation of automobiles was no
proposed only on the east side of the structure, oriented toward County Roe(
#18. The structure was screened by berming and plantings, with the benr
actually built against the lower portion of the west wall of the property.
In addition, there were no windows shown on the west wall, and the buildinc
had been redesigned to support a single-loaded corridor of offices, thereb3
eliminating the need for any windows on the west wall.
Mr. Erickson stated that he did not feel it was appropriate to design th(
building with "residential character," considering the building was frontinc
along County Road #18 and considering the type of exterior materials used.
including brick. He stated that there was extensive landscaping propose(
along the back (west side) of the structure, including evergreen trees 14-1(
feet in height. Six-foot high arborvitae plantings were also proposed.
along with relocation of some of the trees on the property. Mr. Ericksor
stated that there would be a continuation of the fence which existed betweer
the commercial use to the north and the residential area west of it. H(
stated that this fence would be high enough to screen automobiles fron
County Road #18.
A traffic study had been prepared by the proponent, dealing with access anc
traffic circulation on, and around, the site. The entrance from County Roac
#18 had been designated as a "right-in, only entrance. Mr. Erickson state°
that the proponents were working with the owner of the shopping center tc
the north to see whether the two sites could be connected by driveway
access. He pointed out that it would be necessary to redesign the
circulation of traffic in the shopping center to accomplish this connection.
Planner Franzen reviewed the findings and recommendations of the Staff
Report of November 21, 1986, with the Commission. He stated that the major
issue in this proposal was that of the proposed Comprehensive Guide Plan
Amendment from Low Density Residential to Office land use. Planner Franzen
stated that the amendment of the Comprehensive Plan would have an impact on
the five acres of land to the south of the proposed development, pointing
out that there was only a ten-foot wide transition proposed between the
proposed Office land use and the designated Low Density Residential land use
to the south.
With respect to the structure, itself, Planner Franzen stated that it was
Staff's opinion that the structure should be more residential in character
on the west side, abutting the existing residential neighborhood. He noted
that Staff was concerned with the massiveness of the structure, the height,
and the size as it related to the existing residential neighborhood. He
added that it was Staff's opinion that the landscaping proposed was not
adequate to make up for the lack of residential character to the structure.
Staff was recommending more coniferous plantings of the same height and size
as shown in order to provide for better screening, as the amount of space
between the proposed trees in this location was too great to screen
effectively. It was also Staff's opinion that the proponent needed to be
sensitive to the residential area to the west by providing some interest to
the landscaping, perhaps by color. Perennials and annuals were suggested.
The Staff Report indicated that the lighting proposed for the property may
still be visible from the single family residential area to the west. Staff
recommended use of bollard type lighting, instead of 20-ft. high down-cast
luminars. Planner Franzen noted that the Staff was awaiting confirmation
from Hennepin County regarding access to the property and from the owner of
the shopping mall to the south of the property regarding circulation
proposed.
Gartner asked if County Road #18 was divided in this location. Planner
Enger responded that it was not. Gartner asked if it would be divided in
the future. Planner Enger responded that the existing road bed of County
Road #18 would become the service road for County Road #18, which would
actually be built to the east of the existing road. He noted that the
proponents were anticipating a full access to this "service road" in the
future.
Gartner stated that she was concerned about traffic and circulation of the
traffic in this location. She stated that she did not feel that allowing
additional traffic to circulate through the retail shopping center to the
north would create a good situation.
Hallett asked if the five acres of land designated for Low Density
Residential land use south of the property was adjacent to the lots along Garrison Way, to the west. Planner Franzen stated that that was the case.
Hallett stated that he felt that it was valid to believe that the five acres
to the south would be under pressure to develop as a use other than Low
Density Residential, if this development were approved as proposed. It
would be setting a precedent for other properties adjacent to County Road
#18, which was not necessarily desirable, nor appropriate.
Planner Enger pointed out that there was no transition planned between the
proposed use and the five acres to the south. He noted that proponents were
providing for the standard requirement for a ten-foot wide side yard setback
at this location, only. Planner Enger stated that it was reasonable to
expect that the five acres south of this property would be under pressure
for development as uses other than Low Density Residential, if the proposed
development were to be approved.
Hallett asked if the residents along Garrison Way had been contacted about
the proposed development. Mr. Erickson responded that they had been for a
general meeting of the neighborhood, which was held on October 9, 1986. He
pointed out that the majority of the meetings held with residents by the
proponent were held with the residents living on Clark Circle, directly
abutting the proposed development. Staff confirmed that these same
residents were contacted about the City meetings, as well.
Mr. Erickson stated that he felt the message from the neighborhood was they
did not want any commercial uses located on this property, nor on the five
acres south of the property.
Bye asked about servicing of the site for trash removal. Mr. Erickson
responded that the trash would be removed through the doorways to the
structure, likely in small quantities during evening hours. Bye stated that
a portion of the structure had been designated for use by medical facilities
and that there was a large amount of paper associated with such uses. She
questioned whether the method proposed would be sufficient for trash removal
for such a use. Mr. Erickson stated that the proponent had made a
commitment that there would not be any outside dumpsters on the property.
Bye asked if the medical facility would be operating on Saturdays. Mr.
Erickson stated that the medical facility would be open on Saturday, as
would the bank drive-through facility. Bye pointed out that Saturday was
also a prime time for shoppers at the supermarket in the commercial center
directly north of the property, with which the proposed use was planning to
share parking and driveways for traffic circulation.
Bye also expressed concern that the proposed development would provide for a
new opportunity for automobiles to bypass the Anderson Lakes Parkway/County
Road #18 intersection and stop light by allowing for automobiles to cut
through the parking lot in order to access County Road #18, or Anderson
Lakes Parkway.
Anderson stated that he was concerned about traffic circulation. He stated
that he did not feel the patterns for traffic at the point of the County
Road #18 access, the connection to the shopping center driveway, and the
driveway for the proposed development, where all three converged, was a safe
situation. Mr. Erickson stated that there could be a stop sign installed at
that location. Anderson stated that he did not feel that would be adequate
solution to the traffic problems that this intersection would create.
Mr. Erickson stated that traffic from the bank would be approximately one
car per minute, which would provide for even flow of traffic from that use.
Anderson stated that he felt there would be traffic conflicts created by
drivers of automobiles who had been through the bank facility wanting to
cross through to the supermarket. He stated that he felt there would also
be conflict created by drivers from both facilities wanting to access County
Road #18 southbound at this location.
Gartner asked if all northbound traffic from the proposed bank facility
would be required to cross through the supermarket parking area in order to
access Anderson Lakes Parkway, then turn north onto County Road #18. Mr.
Erickson verified that this would be the case.
Ruebling asked how many employees would be working in the proposed
structure. Mr. Erickson stated that he did not know how many workers there
would be. Ruebling asked if there would be an area designated for employee
parking. Mr. Erickson stated that there was, and indicated the location of
the area on the plans. Ruebling added that he was concerned about
pedestrian crossing of the area, also.
Gartner asked about the parking proposed in the shopping center parking lot,
which was to be designated for use by the bank/medical facility. Planner
Enger pointed out that the majority of the parking spaces for the use were
located in the shopping center parking lot. He stated that one of the
recommendations of the Staff Report was that the parking abutting the drive-
through be eliminated as it was clear that circulation would be congested in
that area, and additional stacking of vehicles in this area would be
unavailable, if the parking abutting the drive-through was allowed as shown.
Mr. Erickson explained that the proponents had not requested replatting of
the property in order to include the area for parking for the bank/medical
building within the shopping center parking lot due to ownership
considerations. Therefore, proponents were requesting a variance •to
accommodate this need.
Anderson asked how large a building could be allowed on this property under
the Office Zoning District and still allow for meeting City Code
requirements. He questioned, in particular, whether a structure of this
size would be allowed on the property considering that the parking
requirements could not be met without using the shopping center parking lot
for a large portion of the required parking for the site. Planner Enger
responded that the proponents did show a 30% floor area ratio for the
property. He stated that one of the problems with the design of this
property as an Office use was that a drive-through facility occupied a large
portion of the site. Also, he noted that the site was inefficient for
Office use due to its size. Planner Enger stated that, without the parking
provided from the shopping center parking lot, the structure likely would be
half its proposed size, or approximately 6,500 sq. ft.
Bye asked if it would be necessary to provide for an "internal service road"
between this site and the five acres to the south, as was done with the Allstate property, or the Hardies/Kentucky Fried Chi

Mr. Dave Oliver, 9661 Clark Circle expressed concern ab

f
this development upon the future land uses of the five ac
r
e

t
h
of the property. He indicated concern that the develop

e
acres to the south would be unduly influenced by this devel

p

s
approved, stating that there were no guarantees that the future development
of the five acres to the south would be designed taking the existing
residential neighborhood into consideration. Mr. Oliver stated that he did
not feel this development should be allowed to set a precedent for the land
uses to the south. He added that it was his opinion that the neighborhood
would prefer a one-story building, instead of the two-story structure
proposed.
Mr. Norm Ziesman, 9425 Garrison Way, stated that, as a group, the
neighborhood appeared to be against this development, initially. He stated
that he concurred with Mr. Oliver regarding the concern for setting
precedent for the future land use of the property to the south, which was
also guided for Low Density Residential use. Mr. Ziesman stated that he
would hope that the future developer of the five acres of property to the
south would approach the neighborhood with the same spirit of cooperation
that this developer had offered.
Mr. Ziesman expressed concern about pedestrian access from the Garrison Way
neighborhood. He stated that he would prefer the access be eliminated
entirely in order to prevent people from crossing through his neighborhood
to the office use. Mr. Ziesman added that he shared the concerns of his
neighbors regarding lighting.
With respect to the drive lanes for the bank, Mr. Ziesman asked if there
were to be two lanes, or three. Mr. Erickson stated that there were to be
three. Mr. Ziesman stated that the plans shown to the residents had
indicated only two. Mr. Erickson stated that this was a requirement of the
bank that a third lane be added.
Mr. Erickson stated that, with respect to the concerns about lighting from
the property impacting the adjacent neighborhood, the proponents would work
with Staff toward preventing the light from impacting the adjacent
neighborhood.
Regarding the size of the building, Mr. Erickson stated that this was a
difficult site. He stated that, as the architects for the proponent, they
had tried to solve the problem of the size of the site from the beginning.
Mr. Erickson stated that if this development did not receive approval, the
problem of size for the site would remain, regardless of the use proposed.
He pointed out that the proponents would be widening County Road #18 in this
location to provide for the right-turn lane for the right-in access from
County Road #18. He stated that the landscaping for the back of the
building would cost approximately $20,000, which did not include any of the
required landscaping on the east side of the structure. Mr. Erickson stated
that if the building was cut back in size, it would not be economically
feasible to build the project due to the costs involved. He stated that
they were trying to find a compromise between the bank and the neighborhood.
Chairman Schuck stated that he did not believe that the Planning Commission
would automatically recommend approval of any land use for the five acres
south of the property proposed for development. Other Commissioners
concurred. He complimented the neighbors and the representatives of the
proponent for trying to mitigate the matters of concern.
Hallett asked where the closest two-story building was from this property.
Planner Enger responded that it would be north, around the 1-494 interchange
with County Road #18, approximately 1.5 miles away. Hallett stated that he
concurred with Chairman Schuck regarding the compliment to the neighborhood
and proponents working together. However, he stated that he felt the
proponents had designed the site with too much intensity. He stated that he
felt it was clear that the traffic, screening, and structure problems
resulted from too much building be placed on too little property. Hallett
suggested that reducing the building to one story, instead of two, might
provide a reasonable alternative.
Ruebling stated that he agreed with Hallett regarding the intensity of the
site development as proposed. He stated that he felt the site was too small
for the building and that traffic patterns required substantial improvement
based on the proposed site plan. Ruebling stated that he was not
comfortable that the internal matters had been settled, either, referring to
the trash removal from the site.
Anderson stated that he agreed with the concerns of Hallett and Ruebling.
He stated that he was most concerned about the traffic circulation for the
property and that he did not feel that the circulation, as proposed, was
appropriate. Anderson stated that the City and the neighborhood should not
be concerned that this is the "last chance" for this property to be
developed, and that, eventually, a different use could work on this
property. Anderson also expressed concern about the potential for setting
precedent for development of the five acres to the south as something other
than Low Density Residential.
Gartner stated that she concurred with Anderson regarding the traffic and
circulation concerns. She stated that she felt a bank and medical facility
could work well in conjunction with a shopping center, like the property to
the north; however, she added that she did not feel it worked here in the
manner proposed.
Mr. Erickson stated that the proponents could not do anything else. He
stated that the cost of the landscaping for the west side of the building
and the cost of construction of the right-turn lane for County Road #18
would be raising the cost of the structure. He added that he felt the only
alternative would be some sort of multiple family development for the
property.
Gartner stated that it may be necessary that this property remain vacant
until County Road #18 was built in this area and the existing County Road
#18 became a service road past this property.
Bye stated that she was not convinced that the use proposed was appropriate
for the site. She stated that she was concerned about the access to County
Road #18 and the potential for setting a precedent for the type of land use
that would be developed on the five acres of property to the south. She
added that, as a minimum, she felt the transition to the south from this
property needed to be strengthened. Bye added that she shared concerns of
the other Commissioners regarding traffic circulation for this property and
the shopping center. She stated that an Office use may be appropriate for
this property, but that she did not feel the office building shown was the
correct design.
Hallett asked if the proponent would be amenable to purchasing more land to
the south, or if he would consider reducing the size of the building. Mr.
Erickson stated that the proponent would not return with a proposal for a
smaller building. He added that he would prefer to go forward to the
Council with a recommendation for denial, instead of asking for a
continuance at the Planning Commission meeting for amendments to the plan
that his client would not be making.
MOTION 1:
Motion was made by Gartner, seconded by Hallett, to close the public
hearing.
MOTION 2:
Move to recommend to the City Council denial of the request of Supplee's 7-
Hi Enterprises, Inc., for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Low Density
Residential to Office for the Suburban National Bank/Preserve Medical
Building, based on revised plans dated November 20, 1986, the Staff Report
dated November 21, 1986, and the following findings:
1. The use of the property is too intense, resulting in impact upon the
adjacent existing residential neighborhood and shopping center.
2. The traffic circulation for the property is inappropriate and
provides a negative impact, in particular, at the conjunction of the
shopping center driveway, the proposed office building driveway, and
the right-in/right-out access to County Road #18.
3. Transition from the proposed use to the property to the south, which
is guided for Low Density Residential development, is non-existent.
4. There is potential for setting a precedent for development of the
property to the south as a use other than Low Density Residential,
as designated on the Comprehensive Guide Plan.
Motion carried--6-0-0
Hallett stated that he did not feel compelled to recommend approval of the
proposed Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment based upon the information
provided by proponent. He stated that, eventually, the property would
develop with an appropriate use. Other Commissioners concurred.
MOTION 3:
Motion was made by Gartner, seconded by Hallett, to recommend to the City
Council denial of the request of Supplee's 7-Hi Enterprises, Inc., for
Zoning District change from Rural to Office on 1.09 acres, with variances to
be reviewed by the Board of Appeals, and denial of the request for

REQUEST: 1. Planned Unit Development Concept Amendment on 60.86 acres.
2. Planned Unit Development District Review on 60.85 acres,
with variances.
3. Zoning District Change from Rural to 1-2 Park on 2.84 acres.
4. Preliminary Plat of 2.84 acres into one lot.
Background
This site is currently guided for
Office/Industrial uses. This site
is part of the 60.86-acre Wilson
Ridge PUD approved by the City
Council in 1984. This specific site
is part of a larger area which was
planned for four buildings totalling
147,686 square feet. This area was
subsequently amended to accomodate 0
the Computer Depot building, which •-C
is 76,797 square feet. The re-
maining 2.84-acre parel is proposed
to be developed for office/warehouse
totalling 32,700 square
Site Plan
The site plan depicts the con- _
struction of a one-story, 32,700
square foot office/warehouse
building. The building is proposed

at 57% office, which will require a variance to allow more than 50% office in an
Industrial district. A variance from 50 feet to 35 feet will also be necessary for
a front yard setback off Flying Cloud Drive. Parking meets the minimum setbacks for
1-2 Park zoning. Total parking required for a building of this size would be 116;
122 parking spaces have been provided. The variances for percentage of office and
front yard setbacks can be granted under the PUD District review.
Grading
This site is relatively level and has been previously graded based upon an approved
grading plan for the overall Wilson Ridge Planned Unit Development. There will be
some modification of the existing grades in the northwest corner of the site in
order to provide enough level area for parking.
Architecture
The proposed one-story building will be constructed out of glass, face brick, and
rock face block. The rock face block will be confined to the lower portions of the
loading areas on the south side of the building. Brick and glass will wrap around
the northwest and east sides of the building and there will be a brick band running
across the entire top portion of the loading side of the project. Rooftop
mechanical equipment is proposed to be screened with a metal panel.
Landscaping/Loading Area Screening
The City's Landscape Ordinance has a caliper inch requirement based on the size of
the building and a screening requirement for loading areas and parking. Parking
areas will be screened from Flying Cloud Drive by plantings and the building.
Parking will be visible from Highway #169. Due to steep slopes along U.S. #169 and
the retaining walls, it will not be possible to construct a berm high enough to
effectively screen the parking. Therefore, screening will rely solely on plant
materials. The view of the parking lot from the highway would be similar to the
view of the parking areas in Primetech (further north and west along U.S. #169);
therefore, it is important to add coniferous trees and shade trees along the U.S.
#169 frontage and the north property to break up views of the parking lot.
Loading facilities are proposed to be screened through the use of plantings and a
fence. The plantings along Highway #169 and the fence along the south property line
effectively screen the loading areas from Highway #169 and from Computer Depot.
Upper floors of the Wilson Learning towers will have views into the loading
facilities. This will be downplayed somewhat by the use of tall shade trees. It
may be better from a durability standpoint to have a masonry wall construction
instead of the fence. This will also tie in better visually with the loading area
if rock face block is used. The wall is essentially to screen the loading
facilities and must be implemented with the landscape in order to be an effective
screen. The fence on Bryant Lake Center has not been installed yet and the loading
areas are highly visible.
Utilities
Sewer and water is available in Flying Cloud Drive. Storm water run-off is proposed
to sheet drain through the parking lot into catch basins which will connect via
underground storm sewer pipe to storm water facilities in Flying Cloud Drive.
Traffic
The previous Planned Unit Development (PUD) approved in 1984 depicted 147,686 square
feet for this site and the site which is currently occupied by Computer Depot. It
was proposed at 50% office and 50% warehouse. The total p.m. peak hour trip
generation was 155 trips. The current proposal for this site including the Computer
Depot site would be 109,497 square feet. The total trip generation would be 97
trips, or 63% less than the p.m. peak hour on the original PhD.
STAFF RECCMMENDATIONS
The Planning Staff vould recommend approval of the request for Planned Unit
Development Concept Review, Planned Unit Development District Review, Zoning
District Change to 1-2 Park, and Preliminary Plat based on plans dated November 20,
1986, subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report, dated November 21, 1986,
and subject to the following recommendations:
1. Prior to Council review, proponent shall:
A. Modify the landscape plan to provide additional coniferous and shade
tree plantings along Highway #169 and the north property line to
break up views of the parking lot.
B. Substitute masonry wall construction for the fence along the south
property line.
2. Prior to Final plat, proponent shall:
A. Provide detailed storm water run-off and erosion control plans for
review by the Watershed District.
B. Submit storm water run-off, erosion control, and utility plans for
review by the City Engineer.
3. Prior to Building permit issuance, Proponent shall:
A. Pay the appropriate Cash Park Fee.
B. Notify the City and Watershed District at least 48 hours in advance
of grading.
C. Submit samples of exterior building materials for review.
D. Submit an overall lighting plan with details for review.

principal, premium, if any, and interest on the bonds or notes
pursuant to which the Projects were to be financed, and of the
other instruments and proceedings relating to said bonds or
notes and their issuance and sale.
1.04. No such agreement was reacned among the City and
Manoara, and no extension of the October 1, 1986, date was
approved by the City. It is, therefore, necessary for the City
to approve the proposed bonds and notes to finance the Projects
and to approve a revised housing program (the Amended Program)
relating to the financing of the Project, after a duly noticed
public hearing relating to the adoption of said Amended
Program.
1.05. At the time of adoption of the Resolutions, Mandara
contemplated the Project would be developed in two phases, one
phase of market rate rental housing, and one phase of housing
for elderly persons. The development of the Project in two
phases as provided above depended upon whether Manaara could
obtain approval from the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency
(MHFA) to include one of the two phases of the Project in a
MHFA Bond issue. Mandara has not obtained such approval from
the MHFA, and now intends to finance Phases I and II of the
Project with only one issue of bonds or notes. Prairie Village
Limited Partnership, a Minnesota limited partnership (the
Developer), whose general partner is Mandara, intends to
develop the Project.
1.06. Under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 462C, as amended
(the Act), the City is authorized to issue and sell revenue
bonds or obligations to make or purchase loans to finance one
or more multifamily housing developments within its boundaries.
1.07. Representatives of the Developer have advised this
Council that the Developer proposes to construct a multifamily
residential housing development on approximately eight 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 112 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.
Either (i) at least twenty percent (20%) of the units will be
specifically reserved for tenants whose incomes are no greater
than fifty percent (50%) of the area median income; or (ii) at
least forty percent (40%) of the units will be specifically
reserved for tenants whose incomes are no greater than sixty
percent (60;-.) of the area median income. Determinations as to whetner a unit meets the requirements of (i) or (ii), above,
will include adjustments for family size. Development and financing costs of the Protect are presently estimated by
representatives of the Developer to be approximately Seven
Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($7,200,000).
1.03. Representatives of the Developer have requested that
the City issue its revenue bonds or other obligations in the
approximate aggregate face amount of Five Million Seven Hundr
e
d
Fifty Thousand Dollars ($5,750,000) (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 acquisiti

Prairie Village Apartments
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
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.
The City has received a proposal from Prairie Village
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 one hundred twelve (112) units of
rental housing (Housing Units) to be located on land legally
described as:
Part of Outlot C and all of Outlot B, 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 nf revenue bonds to
be issued by the City for the acquisition of land for and the
construction and equipping of the Housing Units. 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 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 one hundred twelve (112) Housing Units will be
one, one bedroom plus den, and two bedroom apartments, of which
either (i) at least twenty percent (20%) of the units will be
specifically reserved for tenants whose income are no greater
than fifty percent (50%) of the area median income; or (ii) at
least forty percent (40%) of the units will be specifically
reserved for tenants whose incomes are no greater than sixty
percent (60%) of the area median income. Determinations as to
whether a unit meets the requirements of (i) or (ii), above,
will include adjustments for family size. It is estimated that
rents for the one-bedroom Housing Units will be between Three
Hundred Sixty-nine Dollars ($369) and Five Hundred Fifty-seven
Dollars ($557) per month; that rents for the one bedroom plus
den Housing Units will be between Four Hundred Twenty-two
Dollars ($422) and Six Hundred Nineteen Dollars ($619) per
month; and that rents for the two-bedroom Housing Units will be
between Four Hundred Twenty-two Dollars ($422) and Six Hundred
Ninety-five Dollars ($695) 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 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.
2.
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 income at the lower end of the range that can
be served by the Program; (iii) households displaced by public
or private actions; (iv) families with children; and (v)
accessibility to the handicapped.

Bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution
MEMORANDUM
TO:
FROM:
DATE:
SUBJECT:
• 1987 marks the 200th anniversary of the U.S. Constitution. United: States
communities nationwide have been asked to take part in this anniversary
celebration.
The Eden Prairie Historical and Cultural Commission reviewed information on
the Bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution forwarded to them by Bob Lambert,
Director of Community Services, at their November 6; 1986• meeting. The
Commission looked favorably on participating in this national event.
Since September 17, 1987 is scheduled as Constitution Day', the Commission felt
the event could be tied in with Sunbonnet Day and September as Eden Prairie
History Month. Other possibililties include: involvement in an Ethnic Fair,
'essay contests, and involvement in school programs.
The following motion was made at that meeting:
MOTION: It was moved and seconded to recommend to the City Council the
formation of an ad hoc committee on the Bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution
with representation from the Historical and Cultural Commission. The motion
passed unanimously.
The Historical and Cultural Commission would appreciate the City Council
appointing people to an ad hoc committee. The Commission does not have people
to suggest at this time. Two to three people from the Commission would be
, willing to serve on the committee and the Commission is willing to convene the
first meeting.
The term of office for the committee would depend on whether the committee
would limit its celebration to 1987 or continue its work thru the national
three year commemoration.
Attached are copies of some of the information I have received. Most
recently, I have received information on the Minnesota Humanities Commission
Constitution Resource Center, which has a travelling exhibit, speakers bureau,
and video tape series on the constitution available to local communities.

Dear Mayor:
Next month in Annapolis begins the commemoration
of the Bicentennial of the U.S. Constitution, a truly
historic document worthy of an historic observance.
Such a celebration needs the active involvement
of communities everywhere, and for that we ask your
help. Constitution Day itself is scheduled for Sept. 17,
1987, but like the original process of ratification
through implementation, the commemoration will cover
three years.
Chief Justice Warren E. Burger, Commission Chairman,
has said, "We can best honor our Constitution by giving
ourselves a civics and history lesson on its origin and
meaning.•
We ask that you review the enclosed material and
join the observance by becoming a Designated Bicentennial
Community. This means forming a local commission to
participate in the celebration.
Because the federal Commission will be meeting in
September, and has authority to recognize Bicentennial
Communities, we hope you complete this application and
are among the first communities so recognized.
Our staff in State/Local Affairs is prepared to render
any assistance whatsoever in facilitating this process,
so please do not hesitate to call us directly at
202-653-9808.
We appreciate your consideration and look forward to
the participation of your community.
Very truly yours,

first 200 will be honored through &special awards program Cities, towns, or counties accorded
this early recognition will receive a distinctive reminder of this historical event.
A Designated Bicentennial Community is one that establishes a Bicentennial committee
representative of the community; incorporates a commemorative program to educate its
residents about the meaning and significance of the Constitution and receives official
designation from the federal Commission.
Community requests for official designation must be approved by the state commissions. If a
state commission does not exist, communities can forward their requests directly to

REGULATIONS ON DESIGNATING BICENTENNIAL COMMUNITIES
The Commission encourages local governing bodies to establish Bicentennial Communities. The term
"community" includes all political subdivisions having an elected government, such as a city, county,
town, village, municipality, township, borough, any Native American tribe or reservation, or any
combination thereof. Unincorporated areas which have an established identity of their own also may
apply for designation.
A Designated Bicentennial Community is one which (1) has established a Bicentennial Committee
broadly representative of the Community; (2) has developed and approved plans for a commemorative
program that will educate its residents about the meaning and significance of the Constitution; and, (3)
has received an official designation from the federal Commission.
To be considered a Designated Bicentennial Community, a community should submit a completed
application form to its State Bicentennial Commission. Upon approval by the State Commission, the
application with the State Commission's approval noted will be sent to the federal Commission for its
review and decision. Notification of approval as a Designated Bicentennial Community then will be
forwarded to the local Bicentennial group by the federal Commission.

Dear Carl,
Thank you for your recent confirmation that my term on our
Development Commission expires this year. It has been a pleasure to
work with the members of the Commission, you and others these past
several years. I do not choose to ask for re-appointment to the
commission, and believe that a new member would bring fresh
perspectives to this particular Commission.
As a long time resident, I continue to be concerned and interested
in our Community, and would like to be considered for appointment by
our Council should there be openings on the Human Rights or Park and
Recreation Boards.
Thank you, Mr. Dawson and other City Staff for their cooperative
support in providing resources and valued information during my
membership on the Commission.

Dear Paul,
It has been some time since we have had the opportunity
to talk with each other. As you may remember I was a
Public Safety Officer from 1974 through 1980. In 1980
I left the department to pursue a Ph.D. at the University
of Minnesota. Recently, my family and I have returned
to Eden Prairie as residents.
The purpose of this letter is to ask if there might be
a task to which I could volunteer my time in a way that
would benefit the city. Having been born, raised, and
employed in Eden Prairie through the age of 27, I have
been the recipient of many benefits. Now that I am back
I would like to give a little in return.
I am most interested in political/city work rather than
an organization such as the Shriners or LIONS. I thought
you might be able to offer some suggestions. A resume
(a bit outdated) is enclosed to give an idea of my
experience and expertice. Currently, I am a Product
Manager in the Leadership (management) consulting and
training division of Wilson Learning. I am also a
Licenced Psychologist certified to practice counseling
and Industrial psychology.
If you have any thoughts on how I could help or who I
might contact please let me know. Until then, thank
you for your time.

Trails Serving the Purgatory Creek System
In 1976, Brauer and Associates completed the Purgatory Creek Study for the Ci
t
y
o
f
Eden Prairie. This report was presented as a "framework for preservation,
m
a
n
a
g
e
m
e
n
t
and recreational utilization of the Purgatory Creek valley in Eden Prairie
.
"
The specific objectives of the study were to:
1. Refine and define the open space corridor along Purgatory Creek as delineated
b
y
the 1968 Comprehensive Guide Plan.
2. Identify recreational uses compatible to the "needs" of Eden Prairie resi
d
e
n
t
s
i
n
the suitabilities of the "creek scape."
3. Develop a linear system (if appropriate) that would "fit" the existing com
m
u
n
i
t
y
recreation concept and enhance future development plans.
4. Develop a resource management plan based upon planning recommendations.
5. Make recommendations for boundary treatment for the corridor edge in vario
u
s
l
a
n
d
use situations.
One of the goals stated in the Comprehensive Guide Plan of 1968 was to pres
e
r
v
e
primary natural amenities which include the Purgatory Creek water course th
r
o
u
g
h
t
h
e
entire city.
The Purgatory Creek Study refers to the "plan intent" of the 1968 Guide Plan
t
o
"reserve the entire creek corridor in a natural, or managed/natural state an
d
t
o
utilize that area for recreational uses consistent with the conservation
classification defined in the plan."
Attached is a copy of a map of the Village of Eden Prairie as it appeared at
t
h
e
t
i
m
e
of the Purgatory Creek Study. At that time, the majority of the land adjace
n
t
t
o
t
h
e
creek valley was undeveloped. Although, at that time, the majority of the c
r
e
e
k
valley land could probably have been purchased relatively cheep ($500-$1000/
a
c
r
e
)
b
y
today's standards, the City did not have funds available to immediately foll
o
w
t
h
r
o
u
g
h
with the recommendations of the study. There is approximately 800 acres of f
l
o
o
d
p
l
a
i
n
in the Purgatory Creek system within the City of Eden Prairie, and the Purga
t
o
r
y
C
r
e
e
k
Study recommended acquiring not only the floodplain, but some of the slopes o
f
t
h
e
creek valley as well, which would have tripled the amount of land necessa
r
y
t
o
a
c
q
u
i
r
e
the entire Purgatory Creek valley throughout the City. Much of the prope
r
t
y
,
especially that portion of the valley east and south of Highway 169, woul
d
h
a
v
e
b
e
e
n
at least $10,000 per acre, even in 1976, and some of the creek valley woul
d
s
i
m
p
l

n
o
t
have been for sale. For example, in the Paradise Valley portion of the cr

e
k
a
n
d
t
h
e
Edenvale Golf Course section.
S
It is obvious that if the City acquired as much property as recommended by the
Purgatory Creek Study and constructed trails in all the locations suggested in 1976,
the cost to the City could easily have been in excess of $5,000,000 ten years ago,
whereas, the cost today would likely be in excess of three times that number.
What the City has done thus far is to require developers to dedicate the floodplain to
the City and to preserve the creek valley slopes in their natural condition through
scenic easements. In several locations the City has acquired, either through tax
forfeiture, park dedication or a gift, large tracks of land in and adjacent to the
Purgatory Creek floodplain. In these locations recreation trails and in some cases
nature trails are proposed.
There are several segments of the creek corridor that have some potential for trail
development; however, the feasibility of trail construction and maintenance has yet to
be determined. All of these segments of the creek corridor are in the lower end of
the valley south and east of Homeward Hills Road. It should be noted that the City
will ultimately own over 1000 acres of land in the Purgatory Creek valley and will own
the majority of the floodplain along the creek. Although formal trails may not be
developed along the entire length of the creek, the public would be able to walk
within the floodplain along the majority of the creek throughout the community. The
City of Eden Prairie has thus far done a tremendous job in preserving the Purgatory
Creek valley in its natural condition, which is the major intent of the Purgatory
Creek Study. The City will not own as much property as suggested in the study, nor
will the City be able to construct trails in all of the areas suggested in the study,
however, well over 90% of the creek valley will be retained in its natural condition
and there will be trail systems providing access to much of the valley and along
approximately 50%-65% of the creek system.
There are certain portions of the creek valley where the proximity of residential
development will eliminate the feasibility of a trail. The City simply cannot afford
to acquire a sufficient setback from the creek within these sections to accommodate a
public trail.
The following portion of this report will list the recommendations of the Purgatory
Creek Study, by sector, and compare those recommendations with the action the City has
taken relative to that sector to date.
DUCK LAKE TRAIL SECTOR
Recommendations:
"A major element within this area is the "marsh". The area between Highway 101 and
the marsh should be protected for trail development. The marsh should be utilized for
both active and passive recreational purposes. This would include wildlife
observation trails and opportunities for interpretive developments. The development
of trails should initially include peripheral marsh trails."
Control:
"The area between Highway 101 and Duck Lake Trail can be maintained with the
protective 60 acres per creek mile concept while the "marsh" requires broad reaching
controls to maintain the environment and unique habitat. This would require
protection to the 910 feet above mean sea level contour (approximate). The marsh is
one of the atypical areas within the creek system whihh requires regulation beyond
that which is included in the 60 acre concept."
CITY ACTION
The City owns approximately half of the floodplain along Purgatory Creek between
Highway 101 and Duck Lake Trail. The City has acquired approximately 120 acres of the
marsh between Dell Road and Duck Lake Road, and intends to acquire approximately an
additional 50 to 60 acres of this marsh as development occurs. The City acquired
beyond the 910 contour in many locations, but generally has followed the 870 contour.
The majority of this land has been acquired through dedication and tax forfeiture.
There will be trails through the middle of the marsh between Dell Road and Duck Lake
Road and there will be limited active use recreation areas developed on the perimeter,
with the majority of the area preserved for passive recreation (picnicking and
walking) and nature observation.
EDEN FARMS SECTOR
Recommendations:
"It is important that lands be set aside in this sector for neighborhood recreation as
well as for trail development. The area has a high potential for prairie vegetation
management and for neighborhood recreation. Trail development should be peripheral to
take advantage of the views up and down the valley. An interior trail could follow
the sanitary sewer route. The use of bike trails is not compatible. The glacial
ponds should be included in this restoration project."
Control:
"The 60 acres/mile concept (acquisition of 250 feet on either side of the creek) would
be appropriate to this sector. Additional property will have to be obtained in the
northeast corner for neighborhood recreational purposes, including the pond."
CITY ACTION
Through the Chatham Wood plat and the Timber Creek PUD, the City has commitments for
dedication of the Purgatory Creek floodplain along this entire sector, as well as
preservation of the wooded slopes through a scenic easement. Within the Timber Creek
PUD the developer has agreed to dedicate nearly 60 acres of the floodplain, as well as
the wooded hill and glacial pond in the northeast corner in lieu of a density
transfer. The developer has also dedicated an 8 acre neighborhood park for
neighborhood recreation north of Duck Lake Trail, west of County Road 4.
PARADISE VALLEY SECTOR
Recommendations:
"Trail connections are not practical through this sector due to proximity of
residential development to the creek edge and limited opportunity for developing an
adequate crossing at the railroad without traversing a severe slope. Trails should be
developed on the high land west of the creek where an on grade crossing of tracks can
be achieved. Easements could have to be obtained for this purpose." Sixty acres per
mile restrictions are recommended."
CITY ACTION
Single family housing has been platted to the center of the creek in the location
between County Road 4 and the railroad tracks. Any trails along this section of creek
are virtually not feasible due to the location of the existing homes.
EDENVALE SECTOR
Recommendations:
"The creek corridor is acting as a diagonal spine through the community, off which
connections should be considered to tie other recreational areas to the system. Round
Lake Park is an area which should be connected to the system. Additional trails
should be developed to take care of anticipated needs. Priority would be to develop a
system along the well defined east edge allowing the "soft" west boundary (marshland)
to remain less accessible while maintaining it for open space education programs."
Management:
"Vegetation within the marsh community is in an advanced stage of succession through
which the marsh is changing to brush. To maintain this area for diverse vegetation
and wildlife species periodic cleaning should occur - fire is one method. If the area
is allowed to deteriorate to brush most wildlife and marsh plants will disappear."
Control:
"The east and west ridges provide maximum visual protection for this area. Little can
be done with the peninsula development (Hillcrest Court) except to encourage the
landowners to maintain marsh edge condition. The depth of protection on the east side
will be minimal due to the terrain; the west edge would be quite extensive. In this
case, as in other atypical areas, the 60 acres per mile criteria apply, but the
floodplain is broader and its significance is taken into account in defining the west
boundary."
CITY ACTION
The City has acquired approximately 110 acres of the marsh and adjacent land through
park dedication and tax forfeiture. There is approximately 30 acres of floodplain in
the northern area that is still proposed for acquisition by the City when the adjacent
land is developed. The City has proposed a trail along the east edge (sanitary sewer
line) as proposed by the study with a connection to Hillcrest Court via a pedestrian
bridge, and a environmental education trail for use by the school and the neighborhood
along the west side as proposed by the study.
GOLF COURSE
Constraints:
"A tight corridor has been created by the development of the golf course and the
industrial park. Future use will be limited by the physical development rather than
by natural features."
Opportunities:
"Opportunities exist to create some outdoor spaces for employees of the industrial
park and provide a corridor for connecting trails."
Recommendations:
"Increased visability of a recreation facility, and access (non motorized) can be
provided industrial development by developing a trail along the south edge of the
creek corridor. Plantings should be done to improve the visual quality through this
sector."
^
CITY ACTION
The City has not attempted to develop a trail corridor along the back lots of the
industrial park as recommended; however, this may be more feasible and desirable in
the future if the railroad tracks are abandoned and developed into a City trail
system. The major purpose for developing this section of trail would be to serve the
employees of the industrial park as indicated by the study, and would only be feasible
if the owners of the industrial park property would dedicate the trail easement.
MITCHELL SECTOR
Opportunities:
"Develop open space linkage and trail corridor between the Edenvale Development and
the MCA. The valley floor provides adequate space for trail development."
Recommendations:
"This sector should provide trails for pedestrians and non motorized vehicles between
Edenvale residential, commercial, institutional and industrial development, the major
open space, and the MCA south of Highway 5. A pedestrian underpass should be
negotiated with Highway Department a the point near the present creek and Highway 5
crossing before the Highway 212 corridor plans proceed further." The 60 acre per
creek mile concept is recommended."
CITY ACTION
The City has required the developer to file a scenic easement over the creek valley,
and has required the developer to construct an aglime trail along the north side of
the creek the entire length of the creek from Mitchell Road to Highway 5. The City
has agreed to construct a bridge crossing that will eventually allow individuals
working in the industrial park, north of the creek, access to the restaurants and
other commercial development on the south side of the creek. The aglime trail has
been constructed from Mitchell Road, east to the Highway Department property. When
Highway 5 is upgraded, the trail will be extened to the proposed 8 foot asphalt trail
along the north side of Highway 5. The City was not able to get a bridge under
Highway 5 in this location; however, there will be direct trail access to the
controlled intersection at Prairie Center Drive. The trail will then follow Prairie
Center Drive south; then westerly along Technology Drive back to a creek corridor
trail that will border the Purgatory Creek Recreation Area.
MCA SECTOR
Opportunities
"Opportunities exist for a variety of uses including open space, field games, golf,
snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, dog trails, etc."
Recommendations:
"The lowland south of Highway 5 should be retained as major open space within the MCA.
The vegetation in this area is at present a monotype consisiting of grasses and
shrubs. This is in a successional stage which will gradually become dense brush, 4: thereby, eliminating the long vistas now present. Through management of this highly
visible space, aesthetic and recreational value can be enhanced. Initial trail
development should follow the west marsh edge with future development (internal and
peripheral) as necessary. The tight corridor between the marsh and Staring Lake
recreation area provides an excellent trail linkage. Access to the connecting trail
can be gained at either end of the valley and at a point midway through where a field
road crosses the creek. Recreation uses of the open space may include field games,
hiking, bicycling, etc."
Management
"The marsh has little value as habitat in its present condition, but as the water
level could be controlled at the creek's outlet from the marsh, the ideal use would be
the development of a shallow wildlife flowage. A dike and a control structure would
be needed, after which higher water levels would control successional vegetation. The
recommendation is to achieve an area defined by the 830 contour. While this is in
excess of the defined 100 year flood limits and substantially in excess of the 60 acre
per lineal mile concept, the determination is in accordance with the objectives of the
concept and recreational needs. Control for the corridor to Research Road should be
accomplished through the 60 acre per mile creek concept."
CITY ACTION
The City has adopted the Purgatory Recreation Area Concept Plan that would require
dedication of all land below the 824 contour, which is the 100 year elevation contour.
The concept plan would develop a trail system around the perimeter and with some
interior trails, as well as development of some open water ponding areas and some
active use areas - possibly a golf course. The City has begun acquisition of some of
the parcels. The remaining parcels will be dedicated as adjacent lands are developed.
The City has acquired the majority of the creek valley between the MCA floodplain and
Staring Lake Park at width similar to the recommendation of the study.
STARING SECTOR
Recommendations:
"Facilities for picnicking, nature interpretation, canoeing, sailing, fishing,
swimming, should be provided at Staring Lake. This area will become a major
recreation focus in the southern portion of the community, serving developed and
developing residential areas. The first action that must be taken is to improve water
quality and remove rough fish."
"The trails developed in this area will serve both the lake user and the person who is
moving through the area. Initially a loop trail should be developed around the lake.
Off this loop, trails could be developed toward Highway 169/212 and Red Rock."
"The area should be managed for recreational use rather than for habitat."
CITY ACTION
One hundred percent of the shoreline around Staring Lake is now publicly owned and the
City has a lease agreement allowing a trail around the entire lake. This trail was
completed in 1984. A trail connecting Staring Lake with Red Rock Lake is proposed
with the development of the Red Rock Ranch proposal and a trail along Purgatory Creek
from the loop trail to Highway 169/212 is proposed in the future when Highway 169 is
upgraded with an asphalt trail that is proposed along the west side of the highway.
!
•n•,••••
SUNNYBROOK SECTOR
Constraints:
"Topography and structural location east of Creek Knoll Road limits the accessibility
of the creek."
Opportunities:
"Trail development to link future Preserve, Edenvale South, Hustad, Olympic Hills,
etc. Developments to major community recreation areas. The trails leading south out
of this sector enter some of the most exciting landscapes in the community."
Recommendations:
"Trails close to the creek through the first half of this section (from Highway 169 to
Homeward Hills Road) would serve to link existing and future development in the area.
At a point approximately halfway through this section, the character of the creek
changes dramatically, the adjacent slopes steepen, the vegetation becomes dense, fewer
and fewer homes can be seen. This characteristic continues throughout the remaining
length of the creek. It is at this point that the corridor use also changes. Until
now, accept for the upper most reaches of the creek, the use of the corridor has been
for active recreation. Now the trail(s) will become more primitive, less refined,
fewer points of access, and longer distances between points of access."
"The trails for hiking will be located in a ravine adjacent to the creek and designed
to move from side to side as major obstacles are encountered. Other trails associated
with residential development, may be located on the "rim" above the valley floor to
take advantage of the scenery."
"The bicycle and other vehicles motorized and non-motarized should be excluded from
use of the creek edge routes."
The standard 60 acre per creek mile restriction should be employed in this sector.
CITY ACTION
The City has acquired the property between Highway 169 and Creek Knoll Road, as well
as the floodplain between the Creekwood Development and Homeward Hills Road. This
area is referred to as Creekwood Park. Due to the proximity of the single family
development on both sides of the creek between Creek Knoll Road and Homeward Hills
Road there is no plan for a trail system along the creek; however, it is the intent of
the City to eventually own the majority of the floodplain in this location.
The City is presently reviewing the single family residential proposal located on the
north and east side of the creek between Homeward Hills Road and Highway 169.
Although, the south and west side of the creek has the best potential for a trail
system along the northern portion of this section of the creek just east of Homeward
Hills Road, the trail would eventually have to cross to the east side and back again
to the west a minimum of three times and perhaps as much as five times between
Homeward Hills Road and County Road 1.
At this point, the creek valley becomes relatively narrow with steep wooded slopes.
In order to construct a trail outside of the floodplain, the City would have to
acquire a minimum of 50 feet of property above the 100 year flood elevation and the
construction of the trail would require many retaining walls, as well a minimum of
three bridges.
A conservative estimate for the cost of a 6' wide aglime trail that would begin at
t
h
e
bridge crossing of Purgatory Creek and Homeward Hills Road, southeast to to County Road 1 would be approximately $200,000 for acquisition and development, and could
v
e
r
y
easily triple that depending on the cost of the property and the length and heigh
t
o
f
retaining walls that would be required.
There will be an 8 foot asphalt trail adjacent to Homeward Hills Road and Count
y
R
o
a
d
I that would basically parallel the creek in this location. The experience of
w
a
l
k
i
n
g
along Homeward Hills Road and County Road 1, obviously will not compare with th
e
experience of walking along Purgatory Creek; however, the City must weigh the value of that section of trail compared to the cost for acquisition, development and
maintenance.
The Community Services Staff would recommend acquiring all of the floodplain along This section of the creek marking City ownership with vrsible boundary markers and allowing people to will7along a "-nature trail" type of path within fl000WT, but not developing a formal path along tgri-section of the creek. A nature trail would simply mean the City iiCri cl gru
b
out unaliTotliTT —lhere necessary, remove fallen trees, and perhaps mow a path 2' wide. This type of trail could be developed within the
floodplain along the entire length of the creek where the City owns the floodplai
n
.
The major expense would then be pedestrian bridges, which should be narrow (3') w
o
o
d
structures that would have to be installed by helicopter in many areas.
LOWER PURGATORY CREEK SECTOR
Recommendations:
"This is a priority area for protection. To do this it requires establishing
management goals, controlling or limiting access to the valley floor, limiting tr
a
i
l
development to minimum widths and natural surfacing materials, and restricting
development on the slopes. The valley floor trail should be designed to move from
bank to bank, providing the user with as diversified an environmental experience
a
s
possible. The bluff or "rim" trails should be encouraged for multiple use and
coordinated with development."
Management:
"This sector should be maintained in its present condition as much as possible.
Access should be limited, pedestrian traffic only in the valley floor area, and
development setbacks from the "rim" enforced."
Control:
"Maximum protection would include an area defined by the "rim" on the east and
w
e
s
t
sides of the creek valley. If this standard cannot be obtained, a minimum 60 ac
r
e
p
e
r
mile should be adopted with a "transition" area extending beyond that line to th
e
"rim" line. Within this "transition area" land use type and density should be
evaluated."
CITY ACTION
The City has acquired the floodplain on the west side of the creek, south of Cou
n
t
y
Road 1, to an area south of Runnel Circle. The floodplain on the east side of the creek in that same location has been platted into an outlot and is owned by a
homeowners association.
All of the subdivisions south of this point that abut Purgatory Creek have dedicated
the floodplain to the City and several of the developers have committed to dedicating
the floodplain, as well the steep wooded slopes to the City as a gift in the future.
During the public hearings on the Purgatory Creek Study, there were many negative
comments on ever developing trail systems adjacent to the creek south of County Road
1
due to the fragile eco system in this location. The City has acquired the floodplain
and some of the adjacent banks in this location that will essentially keep the City's
options open in the future for possible trail development either within the floodplai
n
or on adjacent banks. Trail development of natural material such as woodchips, or
simply mowing and brushing a nature trail is feasible within the floodplain providing
there is limited use of the trail system."
The City has identified two lcoations for proposed creek crossings that would connect
trail systems along residential streets on both the west and east side of the creek.
One creek crossing is proposed immediately east of Homeward Hills Park. The other
creek crossing is proposed west of Franlo Park.
The City has received two land donations in this vicinity within the past five years.
SUMMARY
Facts:
1. There will not be a trail system along the entire Purgatory Creek valley
throughout the City of Eden Prairie.
2. There will be trails along six segements of the creek valley. All of these trails
are innerconnected through trails along City streets and highways.
3. The majority of the creek valley will be preserved in its natural condition
through City ownership of the floodplain and through scenic easements of the
valley slopes from the valley floor to the "rim".
4. Although decisions have been made by the City regarding trail systems proposed for
the creek valley north and west of Highway 169, trail systems east and south of
Highway 169 have not been confirmed by the City Council, although, they are
recommended by the study.
5. Staff Recommendations for trail development south of Highway 169 are as follows:
a. No trail between Highway 169 and Homeward Hills Road.
b. An informal trail within the floodplain from Homeward Hills Road south to
County Road 1 with acquisition of approximately 1/2 acre to accommodate tis
trail.
c. Continue to acquire all of the floodplain and as much of the steep wooded
slopes of the Purgatory Creek valley from County Road 1 south to the Minnesota
River to maintain the option for a nature trail in this location in the
future.
d. Continue to plan for trail crossings of the creek valley in the vicinity of
Homeward Hills Park and west of Franlo Park.

Solution: Restrict reservation of all park facilities to Eden Prairi

and Eden Prairie companies.
4. The existing charge is the same for any group no matter how m
u
c
h
e
l
e
c
t
r
i
c
a
l
service they require or water, etc. they may use. (Example:

i
n
g
s
e
v
e
r

h
u
n
d
r
e
d
gallons of water.)
Solution: Charge an extra $10 for extraordinary services such as water for dunk
tank, electrical service for bands, pig roasts, or other extended electrical use.
(Whenever an extension cord is used to tap into the building electrical for
exterior use.)
5. Although the buildings are cleaned by the park maintenance staff on Fridays, and
groups are requested to clean up after themselves, often the buildings are not
clean for the groups that want to use them on Saturday or Sunday.
Solution: Hire part-time employee to not only open and close facilities, but also
to sweep, mop, etc. after group use.
6. Although the permit states clearly that the attendant will arrive at the building
at the time stated on the permit, (and is not required to wait for the group to
arrive,) often the group will not arrive until 30-45 minutes after the time
written on the permit. When this happens, the group generally contacts the Public
Safety Department, who are then required to track someome down with a key to open
the building. The same problem occurs when groups leave the building. The
application requires someone from the group to stay at the building until the
attendant arrives. The attendant will arrive at the time the group has indicated
on the facility use permit and find the building standing wide open and no one in
attendance. The City has been very fortunate not to have any major vandalism
occur during these unattended periods.
Solution: Loss of damage deposit if group does not wait for attendant to lock up,
or is more than 15 minutes late in arriving for opening.
7. Companies with a small office in Eden Prairie (5-10 employees) will reserve the
facility for their "company picnic" which turns out to be the main office in
Minneapolis (500 employees).
Solution: City Council should determine if the City should continue to allow this
to occur. The position taken in the past is that "as long as the company is a tax
payer in Eden Prairie (no matter what portion of the business) the City should
allow the entire company to use City facilites.
8. The existing policy allows non profit City organizations to use the facilties free
of charge. The City had 26 such users in 1986 and many additional requests,
however, the buildings were in use. Many of these are for groups such as Boy
Scouts, Rotary, Jaycees, Athletic Associations, etc. Recently, we've had several
requests by Boy Scout groups to reserve the Staring Lake shelter on a regular
basis. Staff have concern for this type of use for two reasons: 1) The City
must pay for a part-time person to open an close these buildings (as well as the
cleanup), and 2) This begins to limit the use of a facility such as Staring Lake
Park Shelter to a few users when there is a high demand from the community.
Solution: Adopt a policy that doesn't allow any group to use the facility for
regularly scheduled meetings, and charge all groups at least the amount the City
must pay the part-time person for opening, closing and cleanup of the facility.
9. In the past the City has allowed an occasional private group to reserve an hour
or two at various skating rinks. As these requests have increased, City staff
have received complaints from general users of the opening skating periods.

Proposed Donation of Barn from the Browns
Mr. David Brown, owner and developer of the Blue Stem Hills Subdivision, has contacted
City staff offering to give the City a barn presently located on the Brown farm at the
south end of Bennett Place.
The barn is approximately 32'x46' and is a two story building; the second story being
the hayloft. The barn was constructed in 1982, at a cost of $85,000. It has a
vertical cedar siding that is stained a natural brown.
The barn is in excellent condition and has the potential to make an excellent park
building.
City staff considered several locations for the structure including two at Staring
Lake Park, one at Franlo Park and one at Homeward Hills Park. The closest location
would be Franlo Park; however, staff would recommend the Council consider accepting
the building for placement in Homeward Hills Park as the park shelter and warming
house.
The Five Year Capital Improvement Program for the park and open space development
recommends funding of approximately $90,000 for construction of a park shelter and
warming house, hockey rink, skating rink, tennis court and multi use court, and
completion of the parking lot at Homeward Hills Park in 1987. Staff has received cost
estimates of $5,000 to move this facility from its existing location to Homeward Hills
Park and an additional $12,000 for construction of the footings, partial block walls,
and concrete floor that would be required for relocating the barn. Additional cost
estimates for heating and insulating the first floor, as well as other renovation
(removing stalls etc.) total $15,000. The estimated total cost to move the building,
remodel it, extend electrical and gas to the site, and provide landscaping is
approximately $40,000. For this amount of money, the City would have a relatively
large warming house that would be ideal for summer recreation program use and would
have a loft that would accommodate a variety of special event and summer recreation
use such as dances, youth theatre programs, and if the area were eventually insulated
and heated, it could be a very nice year round facility for group meetings, etc.
The barn would be located very near the center of this 36 acre park and, therefore,
would not be out of character, as it might in a smaller neighborhood park that would
require it to be located directly adjacent to single family residential houses.
The Community Services Staff request the Council to authorize accepting this barn as a
donation from the Browns to the City of Eden Prairie for public park purposes.
