SPECIAL MEETING
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1987 3:00 PM, SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION BUILDING
BOARDROOM
COUNCIL MEMBERS: Mayor Gary Peterson, Richard Anderson,
George Bentley, Jean Harris, and
Patricia Pidcock
CITY COUNCIL STAFF: City Manager Carl J. Jullie, Assistant
to the City Manager Craig Dawson,
Planning Director Chris Enger,
Assistant Planner Dave Lindahl,
Assistant Planner Don Uram, Recording
Secretary Jan Nelson
ROLL CALL: Councilmember Pidcock arrived at 3:50 PM.
Mayor Peterson called the meeting to order at 3;10 PM.
Referring to his memoranda of January 30th and February 20th which provided
background information on the Major Center Area, Planning Director Enger
reviewed the development of the M.C.A. He said they currently use the 1982
Guide Plan to determine what uses are appropriate in the M.C.A. He also
reviewed the statistics regarding the population of Eden Prairie, the number
of jobs available in the City, the number of residents who work in the City,
and the long-range impact of those statistics on traffic and development in
the City.
Enger enumerated several options he thought were available for directing
development within the City including such things as providing additional
housing diversity where possible, encouraging businesses such as high-tech
that would provide higher salaried jobs, controlling the density of industrial/
commercial/office development, and encouraging the "company-town" concept.
He said he was concerned that future development meet the needs of the resi-
dents of Eden Prairie rather than just the needs of the transient population.
Anderson asked if we have looked at the advantages and disadvantages of going
in each direction with development; that is, providing for the residents or
for the working population. Enger said a final population of 45-60,000 resi-
dents would mean the same density as it is now throughout the City, and that
he thought it would be important to have opportunities for the residents to
work here.
Peterson asked if there are any numbers or opinions on the transitional
process that leads more residents to find employment in Eden Prairie and more
people who work here to move to Eden Prairie. Enger said it would occur if
there are employment opportunities and housing that match.
Councilmember Pidcock arrived at 3:50 PM.

Bentley said he didn't think we can separate ourselves from a regional per-
spective; therefore, we must do planning based on the needs as reflected
by our own community while not ignoring the needs of our position in the
region. In terms of development, he believes the market-driven aspect is
going to continue to be the dominant feature determining where office/
commercial/industrial development occurs. He said he thought there is a limit
to what a community can do in terms of prohibiting certain types of develop-
ment.
Peterson said he agreed that the market does drive development, but he also
believes that what the community has decided to do in terms of education,
parks and recreation facilities has been proactive and not market-driven.
He said he thought we have a primary commitment to the life of the people who
now live here and who will live here.
Enger said he was concerned with what the response should be to a development
proposal that requests a F.A.R. of 1.0. Peterson said he thought that is a
problem and such a project would definitely cause more traffic problems.
Anderson said he was concerned about the quality of life when the population
reaches 50-60,000 and there are 150,000 jobs in the City, particularly in
view of the fact that those figures may be reached sooner than expected
with the lower interest rates causing increased numbers of housing starts.
Focusing the scope of the discussion to the M.C.A., Bentley said he has concerns
regarding the existing document that deals with the M.C.A. as he believes many
// of the premises that the document was based upon are no longer valid. He
l believes tremendous development pressure is occurring in the M.C.A. while the
area is guided very generally. He said the document does not support
our desire to downsize development in the area, and he is concerned that
existing development may be relying on the premises contained in the existing
document.
Enger said that the M.C.A. document is no longer valid; that it was adopted by
resolution and is not an ordinance nor part of the Comprehensive plan. He said
we haven't used it for years and that the existing Comprehensive Guide Plan and
zoning ordinances comprise the framework within which we are governed. He said
the M.C.A. document should be used as an historical document to provide the
philosophy and expectations for development in the past.
Bentley said he was suggesting that we need to establish a new document of some
sort that is derived based upon current thinking and a considerable amount of
public input from the entire City. He said we should do that now before the
opportunity escapes us. He said he supports the studies outlined in the memo,
but he has a problem in terms of dictating the densities of development based on
traffic projections only.
Pidcock said she thought we could build on what we have rather than doing
something new. Bentley said he thought that will be the end result but we have
to get a cohesiveness.
Harris asked about the 1982 Guide Plan. Enger said the 1982 Guide Plan is bona
fide; whereas the M.C.A. document operates as a general plan or guideline but
has no legal standing and is out of date. He noted that the M.C.A. document was
by no means a far-ranging, community-wide document while the 1982 Guide Plan was i
developed with much community input. i

MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to direct that the following items
be performed regarding the Major Center Area with a tentative deadline of May
1st to report back to the Council:
1) Reactivate the Development Commission and give them the
task of developing a list of needed developments and
services in the community;
2) Refer to the Parks Commission the issue of redefining
an overview of our park and recreation goals in the
M.C.A.;
3) Refer to the Planning Commission the list of uses based
upon the sectors outlined on the map provided by Staff
for their review and comments as to how they feel about
those uses; and
4) Update the existing 1985 traffic study.
Enger noted that we have received a proposal for updating the traffic study and
Director of Public Works Dietz will be bringing that to the Council soon.
Peterson said there is merit in consideration of all these items but he was
caught off guard by the suggestion to refer the items to the various
commissions. Bentley replied that the Council should be in control of the
overall, broad spectrum of the issue.
A discussion followed as to whether such action could be taken at this meeting.
City Manager Jullie asked how action regarding a possible request for a higher
F.A.R. would fit into this recommendation. Bentley said that is a separate
issue that is not even being addressed at this time. Enger said we have the
comprehensive traffic study that can be used to answer requests for a higher
F.A.R. until something else is developed.
Peterson said it was apparent that each member of the Council is concerned about
the concrete issues and the philosophical issues and, further, that they would
agree that what is being done is being done well. He said we have the proper
documents and ordinances to tontine to do the job well but the major concern is
with the remaining parcels. He hoped that the Council can at some point return
to the philosophical issues, such as for whom are we bulding this community.
Anderson noted that what we do with the M.C.A. has an effect on the total
community; therefore, we need to ask what a particular development will do to
this community and the quality of life.
Bentley said there are many people in this community who feel very strongly that
we will allow such things as taller buildings and higher densities in the M.C.A.
For that reason we will have a lot of angry people when we say they
can't build a nine-story building because of the traffic impact.
Peterson said maybe we can work some creative partnerships for providing I`
transportation or places to live. He believes there is an increasing impetus
u�.3
-4-
for public transportation. Bentley said we cannot count or rely on any outside
t� transportation system because the Met Council and the regional transit board
{ have excluded Eden Prairie from any plans for such things as a light rail
system.
Pidcock asked if we have dealt with the pedestrian issue. Bentley said that was
one of the specific issues he wanted Park & Rec to discuss.
Peterson said he would not be in favor of the first item in the motion. sBentley
asked how we will deal with the list of needed uses and services. Peterson said
he thought that was part of the philosophical issue or would be determined by
the market. Bentley said he thought we could determine how the 'property will be
developed.
Jullie said he thought Mr. Enger had provided a. starting point .for this issue in
his report on what land is left and what the types of development are that we
should have. He said he didn't see that the Development Commission would add to
that process.
Bentley said the Development Commission did this once before as to the primary
development-objectives for the City as:a whole so he did not feel this wasi
beyond the scope of what they have been asked to do.
Harris said she thought Items 2 and 3 look at existing situations:and she was in
favor of them, but she felt we should remove Item 1`unti.1 we have discussed
the Development Commission and its mandate.
( Bentley said he thought there were two different issues here; one, that this
list tanks about allowable uses in different quadrants; and two, what do we need_.
in the community. He felt we need to put the two issues together as an ultimate
goal. He said that he would withdraw Item 1 with the understanding.that the
issue of development priorities in the M.G.A. for community,heeds will have to
be addressed at some time.
Peterson asked if there were any uses that the community may need that are not
on the list of possible uses. Bentley said he meant developing a prioritized
list of needs for the community, such as a convention hotel,is our number one
priority.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to amend the motion by deleting
Item 1. Motion carried unanimously.
VOTE ON THE AMENDED MOTION: Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to adjourn the meeting at
5:00 PM.

A. DEER CREEK 2ND ADDITION, by Thomas M. Carmody. Request for
Planned Unit Development Concept Amendment on 80 acres,
Planned Unit Development District Review on 80 acres with
variances and Zoning District Change from Rural to R1-9.5
on 10.5 acres, Preliminary Platting of 12.6 acres into 31
single family lots, one outlot, and road right-of-way.
Location: West of Anderson hakes Parkway, East of Carmody
Drive. (Resolution #87-54, PUD Concept Amendment; Ordi-
nance #8-87, Rezoning; Resolution #87-55, Preliminary Plat)
City Manager Jullie stated notice of this Public Hearing
had been published and property owners within the project
vicinity had been notified.
( Ray Brandt, representing proponent, addressed the proposal.
Planning Director Enger said the Planning Commission re-
viewed this item at the February 9th meeting and, on a
unanimous vote, recommended approval subject to the recom-
mendations of the Staff Report of February 6, 1987. He
said that all of the items required to be revised prior to
Council review have been revised. He said that the exist-
ing five-foot concrete sidewalk along the north side of -
Carmody Drive will be extended through the project site to
connect with an eight-foot bituminous trail along Anderson
Lakes Parkway. Enger noted that the Parks Commission did
not review this item.
Peterson asked if the concerns of the neighbors regarding
the loss of trees from grading and backfill had been addres-
sed. Enger said Staff has completed a tree inventory since
the Planning Commission review, and proponent has been asked
to revise 'the plan so that the amount of tree loss will be
reduced.
Bentley asked if there were any significant issues raised by
the public or the Planning Commission that were not addressed
in the Staff Report. Enger said the primary concern was
that of saving trees and reiterated that since the Planning
Commission review the tree loss has been reduced and a re-
placement plan has been submitted.
City Council Minutes -4- February 17, 1987
Bentley asked if this is a medium-density project. Enger
replied that the eastern part of this area is shown on the
Comprehensive Guide Plan as medium-density residential and
that the density will be 2.95 units per acre. Bentley then
asked what type of housing unit is proposed for these lots.
Enger said it will be small, single-family homes.
Bentley then asked if there would be restrictions relative
to footprints and total allowable F.A.R. for the lots.
Enger replied that the ordinance for the R1-9.5 lots con-
tains a restriction of 15% for one story homes and 25% for
two story homes and that this project is consistent with
the City's policies for small lots.
Michael Carmody, representing proponent, said prices will
range from $90-120,000 and the size will range from 960
sq. feet to about 1400 sq. feet.
Noting that the size of the lots appears to be the same as
in Edenvale or the Preserve, Bentley said he wanted to make
sure proponent was aware that there are F.A.R. restrictions.
Mr. Carmody replied that the plans range in width from 40
feet to about 55 feet.
Regarding the issues raised in the Staff Report relative
to variances requested for front yard widths, Bentley asked
if the widths are now at least 70 feet on the building pad.
Carmody said they are.
Anderson asked if there is any way to control traffic on
Carmody as the residents there had voiced their concerns to
him regarding the narrow width of the street, the amount of
traffic and the inadequate parking along the street. He
said the problems may worsen once this becomes a through
street. Director of Public Works Dietz said it is 32 feet
wide and would be classified as a minor collector.
Mr. Carmody said there are a number of through streets in
the area so it won't be the only one out to Anderson Lakes
Parkway.
Peterson said he thought that rather than considering
widening the street it would be better to restrict parking
on it at some time in the future. Anderson agreed it would
not be feasible to widen it now, but he thought we may have
to sign one side for no parking.
Regan Massee, 15571 Michele Lane, said he thought traffic
might be slowed a little by putting a stop sign or two
along Carmody.
City Council Minutes -5- February 17, 1987
Anderson said he wanted to discuss this at the upcoming
workshop on sidewalks and trails.
MOTION: Harris moved, seconded by Pidcock, to close the

City Council Minutes -7- February 17, 1987
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Pidcock, to ,direct
Staff to explore the feasibility of regularly cable-
casting the Council meetings, and the feasibility of a
periodic (quarterly, monthly or weekly) cable show
specifically related to issues, persons and events
that affect Eden Prairie, as outlined in Mayor Peterson's
memo of March 3, 1987 regarding Communication.
Harris said she thought this is a very good ideas however,
in light of the costs that might be involved, she asked
if there is any way to assess interest in the community
in watching cablecasts of this sort. Peterson said,
while that is difficult to determine, it is one of the
things Staff will have to explore, and there are some
people who have expressed great interest in this.
Harris asked if there might be some indications from
communities using such cablecasts. Pidcock said that.
knowing the number of people who use cable would be
helpful.
VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried unanimously.
2. Peterson - Request for smoking, policy at new City 'Hall
Peterson noted his apologies for including this item
that will require action tonight without prior informa-
tion. He read a brief statement regarding establishing
a smoking policy whereby the new City Hall would be a
smoke-free building or a policy as close to that as -
feasible.
Bentley noted there are inherent problems any time a
smoke-free environment is declared in the workplace.
He said he thought it was within reason to ban smoking
in areas that are of public concourse, but that there i
should be some designated smoking area within the
building.
Pidcock said she would like to see a smoke-free environ-
ment.
Harris said she is very concerned about health, both
that of the smoker and of those who must associate with
a smoker. While she would like to see a smoke-free
environment, she said she would opt for setting aside
a designated area for those who must smoke, provided .it
is well ventilated.
Anderson said he was concerned about how smoking relates
to the cost factors for medical and health insurance,
absenteeism, shorter life span and other factors He
City Council Minutes -8- February 17, 1987
said we should be concerned about the physical well-
being of the employees as well as the cost factors in-
volved. He said he would also like to investigate
possibilities for encouraging those with a very diffi-
cult problem quitting smoking to do so, or possibly
for restricting employment of,smokers. Bentley commented
that he believes such employment regulation would then
have to be extended to cover alcohol consumption or
other activities that are considered unhealthy.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to direct
staff to complete a study of establishing a smoking
policy for the new City Hall, including some suggestions
for programs to provide assistance for those who find it
difficult to quit smoking, and return to the Council
with recommendations for discussion at the March 17,
1987 City Council meeting. Motion carried unanimously.
3. Harris - Revised Performance Evdluation for City Manager
Harris distributed copies of the proposed Performance
Evaluation for the City Manager and expressed her thanks
to Natalie Swaggert for her assistance to Mrs. Pidcock
and herself in this project. She said they felt the -
j previous document was somewhat redundant and was very
subjective, so they decided, in effect, to create a new
document.
Harris said they have broken down the rules and responsi-
bilities and are recommending a change in the process
for the evaluation. She said there is now a section
that incorporates an evaluation of annual goals and
objectives. She outlined the major areas of change
from the previous document and reviewed the general for-
mat of the proposed revision.
Harris said they are proposing that the Mayor and one
other Councilmember be appointed to perform an assess-
ment based on performance evaluations of the City Manager
from all of the Council members.
Peterson asked about the rationale for the relative
weighting of the sections and asked if they had dis-
cussed a process by which the Council would annually
identify goals. Harris responded that they did not
address such a process as they felt it was a decision
the Council must make as it involves more than just two
Council members.
Bentley said he assumed that we were not approving this
tonight and noted that there was nothing discussed in
City Council Minutes -9- February 17, 1987
terms of a public review process. Harris said that
under Minnesota law the aggregate score is a part of
the Manager's personnel record. Bentley said he thought
one of the more important aspects of the manager's
review is the public review, but he also thought it
would be good for the Council to perform a private
review prior to that. Pidcock said that was their
intent.
Bentley asked if the proposed point grading system
allowed for decimal point ratings, such as 2.7. A
discussion followed regarding such ratings.
Bentley then asked how they proposed to handle the
annual objectives for this year since we have not deter-
mined in advance what goals and objectives the manager
was supposed to have accomplished. Harris said this is
a year of transition and she thought there were things
discussed a year ago that could be used for this cate-
gory. Bentley said he had concerns about that because
it might be done very subjectively since goals were
not previously identified.
Harris said it would be possible to either identify
some of the issues or to give the manager a full 20
points for that section. She said it might be possible
to do a six-month evaluation which would occur in
November and would be in time for salary action in
January as they are also suggesting that the City
Manager's salary action coincide with that of other
City employees. Peterson said he believed we had
identified this process to be completed by June 1 of
each year. A discussion followed regarding the
previously-determined process.
Pidcock said she realized the establishing of goals
for this year presents a problem, but she believes it
can be overcome by recognizing that certain things
could be accomplished in a certain number of months.
Anderson said he was somewhat concerned about the evalua-
tion process which calls for each Council member to
complete the evaluation form and forward it to the Mayor
who, along with only one other Council member, performs
the review, seemingly without the knowledge of the full
City Council. Harris said it was intended that there '
would be a public presentation of the aggregate evalua-
tions. Anderson said the document does not make that
clear. Peterson said he would like to see the entire i
review process specified in the document.
Bentley said he was concerned that the evaluation of
goals not be based on retroactive goals but rather on
City Council Minutes -10- February 17, 1987
mutually-determined goals set at the present time so
that progress towards those goals could then be assessed
at the time of evaluation.
Peterson said he would be inclined to take the first
option and give him the 20/ in this transitional year.
He asked if the intent was for the Council to receive
the revised evaluation at this time and then discuss
it further at the next meeting. Harris said that was
correct. Peterson asked if the timeline could be ex-
tended in order to allow time to specify the process.
Harris responded that there should also be some time
to discuss it with the City Manager.
Harris said they would also like to have a salary range
set for the City Manager, and she would propose that the -
Council charge Ms Swaggert with establishing such a
range. Bentley asked her to elaborate-on that. Harris
said most positions have a salary range`established for
them and Ms Swaggert is now establishing a 'range for
other City employees. She said this would give us in-
formation that could ensure the City Manager is appro-
priately rewarded.
Peterson asked if that would not tie the salary action
to the performance review, which is what we don't want
to do. Harris said salary actions should not be tied
to performance review but should reflect the performance.
Peterson asked if she is suggesting there is a more
precise way to set salary than we have done in the past.
Harris said they would like to ensure that we have
formalized that process in a way that provides equity
to the individual who holds the position.
Peterson said this is another factor that goes beyond
performance review, and we may not want to get into
this tonight. Bentley noted that he is uncomfortable
with Natalie Swaggert being involved in this because
she is an employee of the City Managers therefore, he
would strenuously object to involving anyone but the
Council in any sort of salary review or performance I ,,
review of the Manager.
is
l
Harris pointed out that they are not talking about
review, but rather about providing information. Bentley
said even that concerns him, and he hoped if that is I`
going to become a policy of the City it would be brought
before the Council as a policy decision for a thorough
review of the process and how it will be implemented.
j`
City Council Minutes -11- February 17, 1987
Peterson suggested that Harris and Pidcock draft a
preliminary document explaining the rationale and the
process for future Council consideration.
City Manager Jullie said they have been planning to
follow up the comparable worth study program with a
compensation study. He said they will be suggesting
that a consultant be retained to help in the applica-
tion of the comparable worth results. He saidperhaps
that ought to include every position in the City so
that we could come back with a compensation plan relat-
ing to comparable worth.
Bentley said he considers the City Manager a "hired
gun" for the City Council, and thus a separate entity
from the rest of the City staff. As such,. his pay
structure and review process should be solely determined
by the City Council.
Anderson said he was concerned about this because the
City Manager is hired by us. Since considerable amounts
of money have been spent on it, he thought we should go
through and evaluate the comparable worth study and
get the information on the manager's scale through the
metropolitan area. He said we have an-obligation to
know where our City is compared to .other cities for all
positions, not just the manager's position. He also
said he would like to have Mr. Jullie's comments on
the rationale and the process proposed.
4. Pidcock - Policy for Council workshops
Pidcock said she would like to have a policy set that
no formal action would be taken at Council workshops.
She said she had understood last week's meeting was to
be a workshop and as such would be a brainstorming ses-
sion without any action taken.
, 1
Anderson noted that, in the past, if it is a bona fide
City Council meeting we were allowed to take action and - 1
have, i fact, passed many resolutions at such special �
meetings.
i
Peterson said he thought we have to be quite careful
about introducing motions for quick response. He said
those generally come without written documents or analy-
sis and review, and we should be very cautious. about the
kinds of motions to be introduced. He said it might be
advisable for us to agree that workshops, unless we: {
know that motions will be proposed, will be for discus-
sion purposes and subsequent action will be taken at. a
regular Council meeting.
J�
City Council Minutes -12- February 17, 1987
Anderson said that Councilmembers have the prerogative
of voting against a particular motion, and he did not
want to eliminate the option of taking action at special
meetings.
Harris said she thought there *are different types of
workshops; some are informational and others are more
geared to making a decision.
Bentley said he entered workshop sessions and other
Council meetings with the expectation that issues may
have to be dealt with regardless of what the intent was
for holding the session. He said he would prefer receiv-
ing a memo to holding a workshop that was informational
only. He also said workshops are generally held for the
purpose of taking a lengthy issue,out of the regular
Council meeting agenda; therefore, if action can only
be taken at regular meetings, the issue will have to
be discussed again at the regular meeting and the pur-
pose of the workshop session will not be achieved.
Peterson said he thought discussion would be minimal
at the following Council meeting. He thought a proposed
motion should be drafted similar to those for Public
Hearings and included in the packet or a memo from a
Councilmember. He said we probably don't want to pro-
hibit ourselves from entertaining and passing motions;
however, he felt that workshop time is time well spent
even if we don't make decisions. He said, further, that
there are things that can't be done as well by memo.
Anderson said in cases where Staff has prepared and dis-
tributed a great deal of information prior to the meeting
so that we can come up with some conclusions, why post-
pone the decision to a regular meeting when there are
many other things to deal with.
Bentley said he thought we have overlooked the issue of
decisiveness. He said we run a risk of appearing in-
decisive to the public if we, in effect, study an issue
to death.
Peterson noted that Councilmembers have the prerogative i
of abstaining or voting "no" on a motion if they feel
there hasn't been enough discussion or action is pre-
mature.
Anderson said he thought the purpose of our workshops
was to obtain information in order to reach a conclu-
sion, whether at that meeting or at another meeting. I�I
f
JV�
City Council Minutes -13- February 17, 1987
Peterson said he would rather be accused of being slow
to make decisions than of being precipitous.
Pidcock said she brought up this subject because several
workshops are scheduled, and she wanted to ensure that
we have adequate time to handle the material covered
in the workshops.
B. Report of City Manager
1. Appreciation dinner for retiring firemen
At this point Mayor Peterson turned the chair over to
Councilmember Bentley.
City Manager Jullie reported that there are five charter
firemen who will be retiring in the near future, and
the Fire Department is planning an appreciation dinner
for them on Thursday, March 1.2th at 6:30 PM. He said
all Councilmembers and spouses are invited to attend
the dinner to be held at the Central Fire Station. He
said there will also be an open house for them on Sunday,
March 15th at the Edenvale Country Club. He said he
will send a memo to the Councilmembers on both events.
Jullie said he will be preparing a letter of apprecia-
tion for their service to be signed by the Mayor and
himself on behalf of the Council.
At this point Mayor Peterson resumed the chair.
C. Report of City Attorney
City Attorney Pauly reported that the meeting of the E.R.C.
of the Met Council held on February 18th resulted in a tie
vote of 2-2 on the proposal to recommend to the Met Council
to not do the supplemental E.I.S. He said the discussion
was rescheduled for consideration by the committee again
tomorrow.
D. Report of Director of Planning
There was no report.
E. Report of Director of Community Services '-
1. Survey on Lake Conference School/City Agreement for
Righ Sc ooI Hockey Gaiie costs
Director of Community Services Lambert referred to his
memo of February 16th regarding Community Center fees
and said that a survey had been done of the Lake Con-
ference schools and arenas, the results of which were
City Council Minutes -14- February 17, 1987
summarized in the Staff memo of February 20th. He
said he talked to Merle Gamm and Steve Schultz of the
School District about this so they would be aware of
our consideration of this subject.
Lambert said he thought we should be discussing other
fees in addition to those for the hockey games. He said
he thought we should continue to review fees for the
Community Center in general and return with a recom-
mendation on all the fees there. He said he thought
that could be completed within two months, and he
would recommend that it be done by a joint study com-
mittee to include City Staff and Steve Schultz, the
Athletic Director of the School District.
Bentley said he hoped one of the options looked at
would be to lower fees in order to attract more people
to the facility. Lambert said Staff has discussed
memberships and has determined that it might be best
to simplify the memberships and perhaps offer more
benefits with the memberships, such as discounts on
lessons.
Bentley said he thought they should also look into
some comparative cost advertising with comparable
facilities in the area. Peterson said he didn't believe
we want to announce to private athletic facilities that
we are in direct competition and compare fee structures.
Lambert said he thought we could promote our membership
and fees without that sort of competition.
Peterson asked if this is the kind of thing that we
might ask the advice of a marketing person about.
Lambert said he would have no problem with talking to
a marketing specialist but it would require some funding.
Peterson then asked about the recommendation to form a
joint study committee with Staff and Steve Schultz.
Lambert said Steve is the only School District repre-
sentative necessary on the committee and that Chuck
Shaw of the Parks Commission indicated his willingness
to serve on the committee. Lambert said the committee
would probably be made up of himself, Tom Eastman, Rick
Bolinski, Chuck Shaw, and Steve Schultz, and they would
determine the possible revision in the fees and return
to the Council with recommendations.
Peterson said he would like to open the committee mem-
bership to Council members who might like to serve.
Anderson said he would like to serve on the committee.
City Council Minutes -15- February 17, 1987
Lambert said it would probably require two or three
meetings to develop a recommendation for Council con-
sideration.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to appoint
a joint study committee to determine a possible revi-
sion in the fee schedule for the Community Center
facilities and to direct the committee to return to the
Council with recommendations within 60 days. Motion
carried unanimously.
MOTIONt Pidcock moved, seconded by Harris, to appoint
Councilmember Anderson to serve on the joint study
committee for Community Center fee schedulerevision.
Motion carried unanimously.
Anderson said he wanted to thank Bob Lambert and his
staff for this complete information that provides a
very comprehensive review.
2. CDBG Grant for Discretionary Funds for New Senior
Center Improvements
Lambert reviewed the Staff memo of February 25th re-
garding application for Community Development Block
Grant Discretionary Funds to renovate:the lower half.
of City Hall for the new Senior Center. He said the
majority of the $65,000 request is for purchase and
installation of kitchen equipment in order to serve hot
meals at the new center.
Anderson asked if this is a federal grant. Lambert
said it is federal money that comes to the State.
Peterson asked if there would be some provision for
cooking meals there. Lambert said there would be,
but the majority of the expense would be for equipment
to keep the meals warm after they are delivered from
the School.
MOTION: Anderson moved, seconded by Harris, to authorize
Staff to proceed with the application process to request
$65,000 from the Community Development Block Grant Dis-
cretionary Account for the purpose of renovating the 1
lower half of City Hall for the new Senior Center. �-
Motion carried unanimously.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
i FROM: Sandra F. Werts, Recreation Supe 1�{
DATE: March 11, 1987 //"
SUBJECT: Extension of Transit Bus Service to New Senior Center,(current City
Hall)
Sometime this summer, when renovations are completed, .the Eden Prairie,Senior
Center will be moving to the current City Hall. Staff feels that the
Southwest Metro Transit buses on the circular route should serve the Center.
This would encourage both ridership and participation at the Center.
Currently the buses comewithin a mile of City Hall, turning at Scenic Heights
Road and County Road 4. The bus stops at the Senior residence" at Edendale and
would also,be accessible to the residents of the new Senior, housing_to be
built on -the east side of County Road 4 and Highway 5.
Staff has discussed the change with Beverly Miller, Southwest Metro Transit
Administrator. She is planning to have schedules reprinted in.the next'couple
months and suggested that any changes in the route take place at that"time.
Staff would like the City Council to recommend to the Southwest Transit Board
that the circular route (SW56) be extended from County Road 4 and Scenic
Heights Road to serve the building at 8950 Eden Prairie Road that will house
the Eden Prairie Senior Center.

DATE: March 11, 1987
SUBJECT: SIDEWALK, EDENVALE 21ST ADDITION
Final approvals for the Edenvale 21st Addition are scheduled with the March
17, 19B7 agenda. Council will recall that a discussion concerning the
sidewalk along Woodland Drive resulted in a decision to provide bonding for
the installation adjacent to the Edenvale 21st Addition until such time ;as the
feasibility of the project could be resolved (by July 1, 1987):
At the Council work session on March 10, 1987, it was determined that sidewalk
will not be installed along Woodland Drive with the exception of a potential
installation from Briar Hill Apartments westerly to Edenvale Blvd. That
particular section of sidewalk will be more thoroughly investigated and
considered when a development proposal is submitted for the vacant property
between Briar Hill and Edenvale Blvd.
Therefore, the Developer's Agreement for Edenvale 21st Addition does not
contain any provisions for sidewalk bonding and/or installation.

TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Natalie Swaggert, Director of Human Resources
SUBJECT: Comparable Worth - Pay Equity Analysis
DATE: March 6, 1987
The initial job evaluation portion of the Comparable Worth Project is near
completion. A job hierarchy has been established for the City of Eden
Prairie and the appeal process is in the final stages. To _date all work
has been done in conjunction with MAMA and the other cities participating
- in theJoint Compensation Study.
The second step of the Comparable Worth Project is to link the, job
evaluation hierarchy to current pay levels and determine the present
fairness of pay practices within the City of Eden Prairie.. The -final. step ,
in the process is to make the necessary pay adjustments. and .establish an
on-going compensation system that will`ensure pay equity in our salary
practices.
The last two steps in this process are critical. They will determine.the
ultimate cost to the City in terms of pay adjustments as well as the level
/ of acceptance the study results will have with our employees.
1 To ensure that our final product is in compliance with the 19B4 Pay Equity
Act and that the basis for our pay adjustments is defensible, I feel it.is
necessary to use the services and computer-modeling capabilities of a
consulting firm.
My review of the resources available has resulted in the selection of
Arthur Young and Company. Specifically, I believe, Miriam Kragness from
their staff (who was formerly affiliated with CDC's Business Advisors).wiil
provide the continuity we need to adapt the job evaluation hierarchy to an
administratively maintainable compensation plan.
J
The cost for Arthur Young's services is projected at $7,300.00. A proposal
is attached for your review. At this time I would like the Council's
authorization to retain the services of Arthur Young & Company. -

Dear Natalie:
I enjoyed our lively conversation in your office on some of the
issues surrounding pay equity; and I'm pleased to offer a pro-
posal for helping you define and implement a compliance strategy.
You have essentially completed your comparable worth hierarchy
and will independently evaluate those jobs that are new or signi-
ficantly changed since the comparable worth study was initiated.
Our contribution would be to help develop wage and salary guide-
Iines that will simultaneously move the City toward compliance
with the 1984 Pay Equity Act and introduce more systematic and
defensible criteria for determining pay. In the long run, we
believe there are significant gains to be made in the compensa-
tion area as a result of the pay equity mandate, in terms of
greater employee acceptance and understanding and administrative
ease. Any pay plan we develop now will have this as one of its
objectives.
Several other objectives are also important:
(1) Achieve a product that can be explained with relative
ease;
(2) Ensure that the rationale, methods, and procedures
applied are understood and maintainable after the consul-
tant leaves;
(3) Enable the City to call on Arthur Young & Company for
expert testimony in the unlikely event you are challenged
on pay equity implementation.
To accomplish these objectives, it is important to work together.
You can help us understand local issues and priorities; you know
how decisions are made; you will help select and present
recommendations when policies must be adopted. And to meet your
goals for this project, we roust clearly understand them.

We bring to the project in depth familiarity with pay equity
issues and strategies for coping with them. " Where two or more
options are appropriate, we will discuss them with you to choose
a strategy that is best for Eden Prairie. We are proposing to
focus our contribution specifically on the following areas:
I. Measuring the extent to which current pay practices are
equitable across City jobs (i.e. , internal equity
comparisons);
2. Interpreting market salary data and identifying a "pre-
vailing rate of pay" for similar jobs in the labor market
(i.e., external equity comparisons);
3. Generating options and analyses that will guide decisions
about how to combine "internal" and "external" data, to
arrive at one set of equitable wage guidelines;
4. Preparing a wage and salary structure that implements
decisions made at Step 3.
Early in 1987 are will also hav3 software available (ISAI PC com-
patible) at nominal cost that will automate the calculations
needed to update a salary plan from year to year.
The following consultant activities and associat3d hours are
covered by this proposal.
Consultant Activity Estimated
Hours
I. Meet with Director of Human Resources and City 2 Manager to discuss specific objectives and con-
straints, particularly as they relate to current
pay practices, labor negotiation, and interpreta-
tion of Job Level (I-VIII). Obtain the most cur-
rent complete set of pay data--i.e. , 198u61 wages,
if all decisions on 1937 pay have not bean final-
ized.
2. Conduct internal pay equity analysis. Produce
graphic and tabular reports shOWin g relative level 12
of pay for ,job of comparable work value and for
male- and female-dominated classes, including
single incumbents. Present options for defining i
equitable pay and calculate cost impact for each
option.

Arthur Young
Ms. Natalie J. Swaggert

3. With City: Select from data presented at Step 3 3
the option that should be used to define, internal
equity. This will produce an internal wage guide-
line, to be merged at Step 5 with market pay guide-
lines.
4. Examine available labor market data to determine I
(a) prevailing rate of pay for jobs similar to
City jobs, (b) evidence for gender based inequities
in the marketplace, and (c) any evidence of labor
scarcity.
5. Compare internal and external data. Discuss 13
options for combining the data and select one
that best fits the City's position on defensibil-
ity, ease of :maintenance, ability to pay, and risk
of litigation.
6. Prepare an integrated wage and salary plan that 16
implements decisions made at Step 5 and serves as a
standard for negotiating or establishing wages.
7. Discuss the plan with the Director of Human 6
Resources to finalize and ensure it :meets objec-
tives. Discuss use for negotiation, phasing in
compliance, and dealing with pay anomolies. Address
its use in a Merit Pay Plan, if necessary.
TOTAL HOURS 67
i
There are about 15 hours of the projected work plan allocated to
meetings with the Director of Human Resources, and others as
needed. This time is considered essential for dealing carefully
with the issues and options involved. It allows for us to look '
at the consequences of adopting one kind of pay plan or another.
For example, if only eight pay grades are used, the standard
salary rang,, will be very wider and the City may have difficulty
recruiting at the lowest 1+,vel or affording the rates at the
upper levels. Alt,;rnatively, soma combining of jobs into grades
is necessary, since the actual difference in value between Vvo
jobs cannot be measured so accurately that a two or three points
spread is meaningful. We think the ply analysis proposed here
will shed conside rabla light on this matter and provi_1e valuable
tools for decision making.

Based on the number of consultant hours anticipated and the bill-
ing rates of consultants we expect to assign', fees for this proj-
ect are calculated to be about $3,650. Expenses are additional
and are estimated at ten percent of fees or about $550. Expenses
include out-of-poci;at costs for such items as mileage, computer
time, and report preparation. In total, the project outlined
above will not exceed $7,300, and you will be billed only for
work actually performed.
Should this plan and cost proposal meet with approval, this
letter serves as a contract for services. Both copies should be
signed and you should keep one for your records. We will begin-
this project early in the new year or as soon as you indicate you
are ready.
We're looking forward to working with the City of Eden Prairie,
and I hope to hear from you soon.

City of Eden Prairie
8950 Eden Prairie Road
Eden Prairie, MN SS344
Dear Mike:
There has been much discussion about the traffic that will be
generated both on the site and exiting from the site and how either
will affect the width of the internal road or the access
intersection at the Crosstown. In order to clarify some of this
discussion, I am submitting to you the following information.
Please consider this information in considering our requests:
1) to maintain the 26-foot width of the internal road from the
Crosstown intersection to the point where it reaches the pool at
which point the road will be widened to 32 feet; and 2) to maintain
the intersection as designed by the County or build the
T-intersection with a 160-foot length at city expense (we will
( dedicate the needed land.)
I relied extensively on the experience of The Blake Schools for my
traffic projections. I chose Blake because a) it serves the same
regional market that we will be serving and b) it has the same
non-resident student population that we plan to have at our maximum
capacity.
Blake has a student population of 1150. It has 21S part-time and
full-time staff, including maintenance, food handlers, professional
staff and administration. Our staff will be smaller because we do
not have to serve three campuses which causes duplication.
INTERNAL ROADWAY
The main roadway at the Hopkins campus is 24 feet edge to edge.
BUS TRANSPORTATION
Blake owns 7 mini-buses (8 feet wide by 17. 5 feet long; 12S"
wheel-base) which have a student capacity of 23. In addition, they
contract out with other bus companies for 13 routes (4 buses from
Minnesota Transit and 9 buses from Medicine Lake. . .fully half of
these buses are also the mini-bus type described above.) In other
words, Blake runs 20 bus routes each school day carrying 522
students.
However, Gordon Swiggum, Blake's Business Manager, believes that we
will cut our bus runs by half because we are on one campus while
bterEd USA
The Chowilat 4stetn
�.7✓ti
Michael D. Franzen/March 11, 1987/p.3
SUMMARY:
Based on Blake's experience with 1150 students and 215 staff, it is
most probable that The International School of Minnesota's school
traffic when The School has grown to its maximum size will generate
an outside maximum of:
Trips Per Day
Bus trips
School buses 13 X 2 26
Contract buses 13 X 4 52
Staff/Student cars 300 X 2 600
Parent cars 150 X 4 600
TOTAL TRIPS IN AND OUT 1278
We expect The International School of Minnesota traffic pattern to
be very similar due to the similarity of the schools. Our ultimate
student population is projected for 1400, but 250 students will
board at school and not have transportation needs or student-owned
cars. Therefore, the 1150 students that Blake has will be the same
as the 1150 students needing transportation at our school.
We currently have 80 students; we project 150-200 students next
year. It is reasonable to expect that it will take 15 years to
achieve 1150 students.
PEAK TRAFFIC PERIODS:
Our experience last year and this year shows that our students and
staff travel at the following times:
TO SCHOOL:
7-8 a.m. 31 per cent
8-9 a.m. 59 per cent
after 9 a.m. 10 per cent
FROM SCHOOL:
3-4 p.m. 40 per cent
4-5 p.m. 35 per cent
after 5 p.m. 25 per cent
Clearly our use of this site will generate much less traffic than
would the already approved project. And clearly the hours of use
of the intersection would be more favorable for traffic than the
approved plan. I hope this information will help you to favorably ttt+
consider our proposal. Please feel free to call me if you have any
questions.

This is a continued item from the OM PROPOSED SI

Commission meeting. The Planning p� I
Commission had recommended that the
development plans be returned to the
proponent for revisions as iden-

included: i s o
\
1. Revise the internal private
roadway to a 32-foot road
surface standard with curb
and gutter.
2. Revise the parking lot
layout to provide a 75-foot
setback to parking from the
road along the lakes edge,
and create a large berm and 29-83 \ fit•--
��,�; AREA- LOCATION MAP;
International School 2 March 6, 1987
mass plantings with lowland materials. Large overstory trees should be
added to all planting islands in the parking lot. Relocate stalls to other
areas of the site.
3. Revise the grading plan to show 3/1 slopes on the south side of the private
access road between the road and the tennis courts.
4. Provide an overall storm water run-off plan.
5. Revise the architectural elevations to be more residential in character.
6. Dedicate additional right-of-way necessary for the construction of the
entrance off the crosstown.
7. Work with Hennepin County Park District to provide an emergency vehicle
access to Rowland Road.
Revised Internal Private Road
The revised site plan depicts a 32-foot road surface over approximately one-half of
the private roadway adjacent to Phase I buildings and the parking lot. The first
800 feet of the roadway off the Crosstown is proposed at 26 feet.
Revised Parking Lot Layout
The parking lot design has been changed to provide a 75-foot setback between the
private roadway along Bryant Lake to the nearest parking stall. The grading plan
still needs to be revised to show berming within the setback and the landscape plan
must be submitted with revisions to include mass plantings of lowland vegetation for
screening from the lake. A revised landscape plan showing large overstory shade
trees within the planting islands of the parking lot must be submitted also.
Revise the Grading Plan to Show 3/1 Slopes
The grading plan has been revised in the area between the private drive and the
tennis courts to 3/1 slopes as previously recommended.
Submit an Overall Storm Water Run-off Plan
An overall storm water run-off plan has been submitted which shows how storm water
run-off will flow overland from the Crosstown towards Bryant Lake. Storm water run-
off along the private drive and within the parking areas are proposed to sheet drain
across the hard surfaced areas into retention basins before being discharged into
either Nine Mile Creek or Bryant Lake. The City Engineer has reviewed this plan and
has concerns about erosion along the edge of the hard surfaced areas. It will be
required that the proponent submit storm water run-off calculations for review by
the City Engineer. If it is determined that the storm water run-off is high and the
potential for erosion is high, then a catch basin system with underground storm
sewer pipe will be required. The Watershed District will be reviewing the plan for
storm water run-off and will determine the needs for retention and/or sedimentation
t basins based upon the storm water run-off calculations.
In order to accommodate the overall storm water run-off plan, grading is proposed on
the one-acre lot currently owned by the Hennepin County Park Reserve District
immediately to the south of the two baseball fields. This will require permission
from the Hennepin County Park Reserve District.

International School 3 March 6, 1987
Revised Architectural Elevations to be more Residential in Character
The proponents feel that the previously submitted plans for the building
architecture reflect a residential character and no further revisions have been
made.
Dedication of Additional Right-of-way Necessaryfor Construction of the
Entrance off the Crosstown
The Hennepin County Department of Transportation has indicated to Staff that funding
will not be available for the construction of the entrance as depicted on the
previous plan, and will be constructing a road entrance as depicted on the revised
plans. The proponents and the City Staff disagree as to what intersection design is
necessary to accommodate the traffic from the International School and Beach Road.
The Staff has recommended that the proponents work with a traffic consultant to
provide a traffic study which analyzes the projected traffic and the impacts on
Beach Road/Crosstown intersection.
Work with Hennepin County Park District to Provide an Emergency Vehicle Access
to Rowland Road
An agreement with the Hennepin County Park Reserve District has not been reached at
this time.
Park Dedication
The Parks' Commission has reviewed the proposal and recommends that the proponents
be required to pay a Cash Park Fee based on $2,300 per acre of land proposed for
rezoning and to provide the City with a conservancy easement for all land area south
of the east/west roadway serving the property.
Fire Marshal Review
The Fire Marshal has reviewed the development plans and recommends that with Phase
II a loop road be provided for emergency vehicle access where shown on Attachment A.
Staff has reviewed the existing and proposed grading and feel that the drive can be
accommodated with a slope of approximately 7e.
Future Development
The revised development plans show a different layout for the future development of
the property. Since the proponents are not in a position at this time to be
specific about the development at Phase II, and are requesting zoning over the
entire site, if the City is to consider zoning the entire site at this time, it
should be conditioned upon each subsequent detailed phase being reviewed by the
Planning Commission and City Council. Staff is concerned about the uncertainty of
the development with subsequent phases especially in the northeast corner of the
site, because of the oak wooded knoll. In order to assure that this natural feature
be retained in its natural state, the proponent should file a conservancy easement
over this area and other areas as depicted on Attachment B such that the oak wooded
slopes would be preserved in their natural character indefinitely.
i
International School 4 March 6, 1987
Lighting and Fencing
At this time, the proponents have no plans for the lighting of the athletic field or
for fencing around the site,
Conclusions
If the Planning Commission feels that the use of the site is appropriate for
Secondary Education/Vocational/Elementary Schools and the development plans have
been revised enough to justify the Change in the Comprehensive 'Guide .Plan then one
option for the Commission to consider would be to approve the plans as submitted
based upon recommendations in the February 20, 1987, and March 6, 1987, Staff
Reports.
If, on the other hand, the Planning Commission feels that the use of the site is
inappropriate for Secondary Education/Vocational/Elementary i:Schools and/or the
revisions in the plan are not enough to justify a,change in the Comprehensive Guide
Plan, then another option would be to.recommend denial of the,proiect,as submitted.

TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Michael D. Franzen, Senior Planner
THROUGH: Chris Enger, Director of Planning
DATE: February 20, 1987
PROJECT: International School
LOCATION: Southeast of the intersection of Crosstown extension and I-494
APPLICANT: International School
FEE OWNERS: Metram Properties
REQUEST: 1. Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Medium Density
Residential and Open Space to Secondary/Vocational School on
55 acres.
2. Zoning District Change from Rural to Public on 55.6 acres.
3• Preliminary Plat of 55.6 acres into one lot with road right-
of-way.
4• Code Amendment Change to permit private schools and boarding
within the Public District.
Background
The 1968 Comprehensive Guide Plan "'
depicted this parcel as a Low �M PROPOSED SIT
Density Residential land use. pU
Subsequently, in 1981, the City I
Council amended the 1968 Guide Plan
based on a request by Metram
Properties for 221 multiple and
single family units. The Guide Plan $' a
was changed to Medium Density
Residential and Public Open Space.
The changing of the Comprehensive Y
Guide Plan was based upon the
dedication of approximately 39 acres \ rm
..
of Open Space. The project received
first reading on the rezoning to
Medium Density Residential and the
t
Guide Plan Change was approved;
however, the proponent did not
proceed to 2nd Reading.

Comprehensive Guide Plan Change Request
Before the Guide Plan Change request can be evaluated, it is important to understand
the reasons behind the current Comprehensive Guide Plan designations. The decision
to change the Comprehensive Guide Plan previously from Low Density Residential was
based upon a density transfer and the dedication of a considerable amount of Open
Space. Since the Open Space has not been dedicated, and the Metram plan not built,
the same conditions exist as when the property was designated Low Density
Residential.
This project is not consistent with the Comprehensive Guide Plan and requires a
change to Secondary/Vocational and Elementary School designation under the Public
land use catagory of the Comprehensive Guide Plan. However, private schools are not
permitted uses within the Public zoning district of City Code. The
Secondary/Vocational and Elementary School designation on the Guide Plan seems the
most appropriate designation. The private school could be considered as a use
within an office or a commercial district; however, those land use designations
would not be appropriate in this location.
The private school is a regional scale use and could be located within the Major
Center Area. However, the private school is a specialized use which requires
certain site characteristics. The proponents were attracted to this site because of
the trees, hills, and the lake exposure.
Zoning
The International School is requesting a rezoning from a Rural to a Public zone, but
does not meet the specific definition of a permitted use in a Public District by
City Code; therefore, the City will have to amend the existing Public zoning
district to allow for private schools and boarding. The private school is operated
for profit and could be included within a public zone; however, is is clearly
different from the existing permitted use which include non-profit churches, and a
public utilities and public services such as a post office or a library.
Technically, the City Council cannot act on the rezoning of the property to Public
since this use is not permitted in the Public District. Therefore, if the City is
to approve this project, the City Council must also amend the Code to list private
schools with boarding as a permitted use in the Public District.
Site Plan
Building construction is proposed in two phases. Phase I includes the access road,
184 parking spaces, and 36,500 square feet of building, which includes classrooms
and a gymnasium. Phase I development is at a 0.015 Floor Area Ratio (FAR).
Ultimate building development, including 120,ODO square feet and up to 400 parking
spaces, would be at.a 0.05 FAR. The recreational area which includes game fields
and tennis courts are not included in Phase I. --
Since the proponents are requesting zoning over the enter site, but do not have
specific development plans for subsequent phases, if the City is to consider zoning
the entire site at this time it should be conditioned upon each subsequent detailed
phase being reviewed by the Planning Commission and City Council.
The private driveway proposed for this site is only 25 feet in width. This is not
International School 3 February 20, 1987
wide enough to accommodate the buses and the anticipated 1,500 trips per day at full
development. The drive lane is also narrow for emergency vehicle access and should
any portion of the roadway be blocked for any reasons, would make manuevering very
difficult. The private roadway shall be 32 feet wide and be constructed to City
standards with curb and gutter.
Parking
Parking is too close to the lake visually and native vegetation within the flood
plain, and proposed plantings do not screen the parking area. The parking lot will
also be visible from higher elevations including Rowland Road and single family
homes along Beach Road. The site plan should be revised to provide a 75-foot
setback between the parking and the existing driveway to the east of the parking
lot. Some parking would have to be located elsewhere on-site.
Access
Only one access is proposed to this site off the Crosstown. A second access to this
site is needed for emergency vehicle purposes. Alternatives for a second access
would be to utilize the existing road right-of-way along Bryant Lane from Beach Road
to the property or to utilize the existing driveway access out to Rowland Road.
Since the main access into the property is off the Crosstown, any type of accident
which blocks Beach Road would render the access off Bryant Lane useless since Beach
Road is a long dead-end cul-de-sac. It makes more sense to have an access out to
Rowland Road which is a public road. The proponent should work with the Hennepin
County Park Reserve District to provide an access to Rowland Road.
The County and the City Staff have looked at alternative intersection designs for
Beach Road and the Crosstown. The County has indicated that they would be willing
to build the road improvement as depicted on the plans by the proponent provided the
proponents are able, at this time, to dedicate the right-of-way necessary for the
road construction. The timing of the right-of-way acquisition is critical since the
County will be proceeding with the construction of the roadway this spring and must
apply for Federal funds. If the County is not able to obtain the right-of-way at
this time, the construction of the road design would be at the expense of the
property owner.
The proposed intersection design is necessary because of the different types of land
uses proposed and the amount of traffic expected to be generated at the school at
full development. The two lanes in and two lanes out are necessary to accommodate
the traffic and turning movements of the buses and also provide an additional lane
for emergency vehicle access should one of the lanes be closed.
Grading
Overall grading stays out of the oak trees in the northeast corner of the site and } ,
along the western property line. There is some grading proposed in the existing
woods in the low areas adjacent to the ball fields and would remove lowland
vegetation which is not subject to the City's tree replacement policy.
Land uses proposed seem to be sited in the most appropriate areas on-site. The ball
fields are located in the relatively level areas of the property and the buildings
are terraced into the hill to minimize grading. There is extensive cut and fill 1'proposed next to the Crosstown but this is necessary to accomodate the entrance
f International School 4 February 20, 1987
4, design as depicted on the plan. Grading and road construction will approach the
edge of the existing oak forest and the proponents must provide a detailed tree
inventory within the grading limits.
The high point adjacent to the Crosstown remains intact. The small knob in the
center portion of the site will be lowered about 20 feet to accommodate development
in the future phases. Buildings terraced down the slopes in all phases and the use
of two-tiered buildings help minimize grading overall. There are 2/1 slopes
proposed between the entrance off the Crosstown and the tennis courts which need to
be modified to a 3/1 slope. Since development is proposed in phases, grading should
be limited to Phase I areas only.
Architecture
The buildings are two-story facing Bryant Lake and a one-story facing the Crosstown.
This type of building design helps reduce grading. Buildings are proposed to be
constructed out of brick and wood. The building elevations do not indicate
specifically how much brick and how much wood is being proposed. The City
Ordinance limits wood to a maximum of 25% of the face of any one wall.
Since this site is in a residential setting, the buildings should be designed to be
comparable in character with the surrounding residential areas. The buildings, as
proposed, with the flat roof, appear institutional. The use of brick and wood alone
is not enough to convey a residential character. Sloped roofs may help the building
fit in to the residential character surrounding the lake. This is extremely
important since views into the project from Rowland Road and homes along Beach Road
are looking down on top of the project. Traditionally, institutional buildings and
other buildings with flat roofs have mechanical equipment. Although the proponents
are proposing no rooftop mechanical units, it has been Staff s prior experience that
at building permit issuance, proponents typically request that the units be located
on top of the building. Adding a pitched roof would not only convey a residential
character, but would also screen the rooftop mechanical units.
Landscaping
The landscape ordinance is based upon a caliper inch requirement for the size of the
building, screening of parking areas from the public roads, and screening of the
parking areas from surrounding uses and the lake. The total caliper inches proposed
is in conformance with the caliper inch requirement.
As mentioned in the site plan section, the parking lot is too close to the lake
visually, and vegetation in the flood plain and proposed plantings are not enough to
screen the parking areas from the lake and from higher elevations along Rowland Road
and the adjoining single family areas. To better screen the parking areas from the
lake, there should be a 75-foot setback from the driveway along the flood plain to
the nearest parking stall. This would allow for larger berms and mass plantings of
lowland vegetation to screen the parking areas. Screening of parking areas with
lowland vegetation is a requirement of the Shoreland Ordinance. Since views into
the parking lot will be from higher elevations as well, large overstory shade trees
shall be planted within the planting islands. Since a large portion of the parking
area is proposed to be constructed in subsequent phases, it may be appropriate to
grade the entire parking area at this time, and plant trees within the future
planting islands so that the trees would have several years of mature growth before
more hard surface area is added. R

Utilities
Sanitary sewer service is immediately available to this site by a connection to the
existing sanitary sewer interceptor along the flood plain on the eastern portion of
the site. Water is not immediately available to the project and will have to cross
Interstate 494 to serve this site. Extending the water main to the property will be
part of a trunk water line improvement by the City.. The proponents will be
responsible for all of the costs of the water main extension within their property.
No overall storm water run-off plan has been submitted. The proponents must submit
a plan which illustrates how storm water run-off from the Crosstown will be directed
towards Bryant Lake. Currently there is an existing pipe and swale which runs
approximately through the center of the proposed athletic fields at this time. In
addition, storm water run-off within the parking areas will not be allowed to sheet
drain across the property and a catch basin system and underground storm sewer pipe
system will be required.
Lighting
An overall lighting plan has been submitted which depicts 16 to 20-foot high
lighting standards along the private roadway and the parking lot areas. No lighting
is proposed for the athletic fields at this time, and the proponents have indicated
that these fields will never be lit. This provision should be written into a
/ restrictive covenant on the property.
i Shoreland Ordinance
The site plan has been developed in accordance with the provisions of the Shoreland
Ordinance including lot sizes and setbacks for building and parking areas from the
creek, and from Bryant Lake.
Park Dedication
The developer is not proposing to pay any park fee or dedicate any land for park use
since they feel that the current City Code does not require it.
Minnesota Statute 462.358 allows municipalities to require either park dedication or
park fee for "any proposed subdivision". The existing City Code relating to park
dedication in Section 12.40, which states, "The owner of land being subdivided for
residential, commercial, industrial, or other uses, or as a Planned Unit Development
which includes residential, commercial, or industrial uses, or any combination
thereof shall dedicate the public for public use as parks, playgrounds, or public
open space, a reasonable portion of the land up to 10% thereof, as determined by the
City to be in the public interest any necessary for such uses." The reference "or
other uses" also allows the City to charge a park fee for any proposed subdivision,
although the City Attorney's office does recommend Section 12.40 be amended to
reflect the existing language in the State Statute. j
The Community Services Staff would recommend requiring the dedication of the parcel
of property south of the east/west access road to the two former single family
residents or dedication of park fees based at $2,300 per acre of the land proposed
for rezoning.
i
International School 6 February 20, 1987
Conclusions
The Planning Commission must decide whether or not the proponents adequately
substantiated the request for Guide Plan Change to allow a private school use on
this site. The decision to change the Guide Plan previously was based upon a
density transfer and land dedication. Since land dedication did not occur and the
Metram plan was not built, the same conditions exist .as when the property was
designated low density residential. Large single family lots could occur on this
site and it would allow for considerable flexibility in road and building pad
locations and could potentially save as many trees as the current proposal.
The proposed use is clearly regional and could be located within the Major Center
Area. It is also specialized land use which does require certain site
characteristics. It is Staff's understanding that the proponents have looked at
other sites in the Metropolitan area with similar site characteristics including
rolling topography, trees, creeks, and lakes.
Compared to the two previous requests on the site including the Metram proposal and
the Crow/Chasewood proposal, the site plan, as proposed, is better in terms of
saving trees and the minimal amount of grading work proposed on the property.
The current use is not a permitted use within the Public zoning district of the
City. In order for this property to legally be rezoned, it must be rezoned to a
district in which the use is permitted. Therefore, there is a need for the
proponents to have Code Amendment Change approved by the City Council before the
zoning can be approved.
The proponents are not proposing any land dedication since they feel it Cannot be
required by current City regulations. The City Attorney's office has advised that
the language under Section 12.40 is inclusive enough to require dedication since the
school could be considered under "other uses". However, since the Code must be
amended to allow private schools. Section 12.40 of the City Code should be amended
specifically to require land dedication or cash park fees for the private school.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
The following alternative courses of action are presented for Commission
consideration:
A. If the Planning Commission feels that the proponents have adequately
substantiated the request for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change, then approval
should be based upon the following conditions:
1.
1. Prior to City Council review, the proponent shall make the following 4'
revisions in the plans:
a. Revise the internal private road to a 32-foot road surface l
standards with curb and gutter.
b. Revise the parking lot layout to provide a 75-foot setback
to parking from the road along the lakes edge, create a
large berm and mass plant with lowland plant materials.
Large overstory trees should be added to all planting
islands in the parking lot. Relocate parking stalls to
other areas of the site.
International School 7 February 20, 1967
C. Revise the grading plan to show 3/1 slopes on the east side
of the private access road between the road and the tennis
courts.
d. Provide an overall storm water run-off plan.
e. Revise the architectural elevations to be more resident iall:
in character. -
2. Dedicate additional right-of-way necessary for the construction of
the entrance off the Crosstown.
3. Dedication of the parcel of property south:of the. east/West access
road to the two former single family residents or dedication of park
fees 'based $2,300"per acre of land proposed-for rezoning.
4. Work with the Hennepin County Park District to provide an emergency
vehicle access to Rowland Road.
5. Filing of a. restrictive .covenant-`on the property in favor of the
City which prohibits outdoor lighting of the outdoor recreational
facilities.
6. Approval of the Code change by the City".Council to permit private
school and boarding within the public zoning district and 'amending
the subdivision -regulations in .Section 12.40 ;;to require park
dedication or cash park fees for private schools.
B. The Planning Commission could recommend that development, plans be returned"
to the proponent for revisions as identified'-in the Staff Report.
C. If the Commission feels that the use of the`property for a;private school is
inappropriate and that the Guide Plan Change has not been "substantiated,
then the Commission could recommend denial of the project.

MEMORANDUM
( TO: Mayor and City Council
9� Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission
THRU: Carl Jullie, City Manager
FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services —irA`
DATE: February 26, 1987 ,
SUBJECT: International School Development Proposal
Attached is a copy of the February 20, 1987 Planning Staff Report on the International
School request for Comprehensive Guide Plan change, zoning district change,
preliminary plat and code amendment change, as well as a letter from James R. Steilen,
attorney representing the proponent.
The February 20th Planning Staff Report summarizes the background of previously
Proposed development and land use for this parcel, as well as the request by
International School. The major parks, recreation and natural resource issues
relating to the International School request include: the proposed grading plan, the
Shoreland Ordinance requirements, how this plan relates to the approved regional park
plan, and park dedication.
GRADING
On the previous development proposal the major grading issue related to preservation
of the oak trees in the northeast corner of the site and along the western property
line. This proposal preserves those significant trees. The Community Services Staff
concur with the Planning Staff Report regarding the grading plan for this site.
SHORELAND ORDINANCE
The site plan does conform with the requirements of the Shoreland Management
Ordinance.
CONSISTENCY WITH THE REGIONAL PARK PLAN
The regional park plan that was approved by the City Council depicted approximately
the southern 40 acres of this site to be included in the regional park. The Park
Reserve District requested this addition to the park originally to accommodate camping
uses and to preserve the north shore of Bryant Lake in its natural condition. The
revised plan indicated the majority of the site would be used for pasture to
accommodate the continued use of the stable operation.
The Vo-Tech stable operation more than likely is an interim use for that particular
portion of the park; therefore, the additional pasture land is not a requirement;
however, the preservation of the Nine-Mile Creek valley and floodplain, as well as the
north shore of Bryant Lake is important to the ultimate development of Bryant Lake
Regional Park.
The City of Eden Prairie considers the regional parks within the City limits as a part
of the total park system of the City. The Park Reserve District Board wuuld like the Y
regional park boundary to include the floodplain of Nine-Mile Creek, as well as the
north shore of the lake up to the east/west cart way serving the existing Park Reserve 1
District parcel.
a
The City of Eden Prairie has an agreement with the Metropolitan Council to attempt to
acquire, through park dedication, as much of this property as is "reasonable through
Cpark dedication in order to accommodate the requested regional park boundaries."
The letter from Mr. James Steilen states that the developer's position is that "An
objective view of the use of the site would have to conclude that the school as such
does not generate a need for park space as a residential development would." "The
staff reports recommendation concerning park dedication is not justified by the nature
of the school development. The recommendation appears to be less motivated by needs
created by the development and more motivated by the fact rthat the school has
purchased a track that some park people believe would make a good park." Mr. Steilen
further quotes the State Statute which authorizes cities to impose park dedication
requirements only if the municipality reasonably determines that it will need to
acquire that portion of land for park purposes "as a result of the subdivision". Mr.
needs not solved by the development itself."
Steilen states that " s
No one can seriously argue that this school will create park
As the Planning Staff Report indicates, Minnesota Statute and City Code allow the City
to acquire park dedication for any proposed subdivision providing the City can prove
that the municipality will require additional parkland as a result of that
subdivision. In most cases, the City requires a cash park fee and uses that park fee
to acquire and develop land within the park system plan. Whenever a subdivision is
developing a parcel that is within the boundaries of a proposed park the City requires
park dedication in lieu of park fees. The International School is proposing a
development that has property within a proposed park boundary; therefore, the City
staff is recommending dedication of a reasonable portion of park property within this
subdivision.
The developer is proposing a school that will eventually accommodate up to 1500
children from kindergarten through 12th grade. Many of these children will ultimately
live on this site. The Community Services Staff believe that one can seriously argue
that this school will create park needs not solved by the development itself. The
developer is already talking to the Park Reserve District about connecting trails to
their regional park and using some of the park facilities with their program. The
Community Services Staff encourage this private school to use these public facilities,
and would also expect children living in that part of the community (boarding at the
school) to use other City facilities, and would more than likely have some of those
children participating in youth athletic association programs, using the Community
Center for swimming and skating programs, as well as using the City trail system
throughout the community. It is unreasonable to think that these children would not
use the public facilities available to them in this community, and 1500 additional
children going to shcool and/or living in this community will require additional park
facilities in this community.
Attached to this memo is a map depicting the proposed property boundary for Bryant
Lake Regional Park that includes land within this subdivision. There is small portion
of floodplain property adjacent to Nine-Mile Creek along the eastern boundary of the f
property and the majority of the proposed parkland is floodplain property south of the ( :.
east/west cart way
The City does not generally give credit for park dedication for floodplain property,
as the value of floodplain is not equal to the value of the developable property, for
this reason the Community Services Staff recommend acquiring an actual acreage amount
( that exceeds 10% of the site which is the normal park dedication requirement. Of the
amount of property being suggested for park dedication approximately 3.6 acres are
developable property. The remaining portion (approximately 7.3 acres) is
undevelopable floodplain property.
It is the responsibility of the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission to
determine if this subdivision will generate a need for additional parkland and, if so,
what amount of land should be dedicated for park purposes.
The Planning Commission reviewed this proposal on Monday, February 23rdrand continued
the item to March 9th to resolve several issues regarding."landscaping,,screening-of
parking lots, width of roads, etc. This item will be reviewed by the City Council on
Tuesday, March 17th.

Lambert said the tennis courts are the accepted standard size. The
concept has changed somewhat in that more parking has been added.
Lambert said he cannot define occasional use of the park by the
athletic association because it will depend upon if the bond
referendum is passed. If it is not, the athletic association will
be looking at any available fields. Regarding the exchange of the
softball field for an ice rink, Lambert commented that several
years ago there were more than 20 unlighted skating rinks without
warming houses. However, many surveys of unlighted rinks showed
that they weren't used. There is only one of these left because
kids will go to the parks where the rinks are lighted and there is
a warming house. Lambert does not see a problem adding a
basketball hoop and bike rack.
The resident asked if the football field could be enlarged to
accommodate soccer. Lambert said we are already working in a very
tight space and there isn't room to make the field a regulation
soccer field.
Bierbaum asked if the parking space at the park will be sufficient.
Lambert said yes.
C. International School
Refer to memo dated February 26, 1987 from Bob Lambert, Director of
Community Services, staff report dated February 20, 1987 and letter
dated February 23, 1987 from James Steilen, attorney for the
International School.
Lambert said the main issue regarding this development is the
payment of cash park fees discussed in the attorney's letter.
Other issues are grading, shoreland ordinance and consistency with
the regional park plan.
Regarding grading, Lambert said the proposal preserves a
significant amount of trees and the site plan conforms with the
requirements of the Shoreland Management Ordinance. However, the
development as it is would severely limit the size of the proposed
park expansion. The developer is applying for public zoning and
without revising the public zone, the City will have to deny the -<'
proposal. The City does not charge cash park fees for non-profit,
tax exempt developments. Lambert said lie would expect and
encourage children and staff boarding and working at the school to
use public facilities.
Tracy Whitehead, Director of Operations for the International
School, was present at the meeting. She apologized to the
Commission for not being, more well prepared, but did not know she
was to attend the meeting until today.

Whitehead reviewed the plans for development of the school and said
density would be 0.05 upon completion in approximately ten years.
The buildings on the site will be low profile and built into the
contours of the hills. The lakeshore will remain undeveloped since
this will provide a good opportunity of learning for the children.
They will also not light any of the athletic fields. The only
disagreement she has with staff is the use of parkland and payment of cash park fees. The school has paid $30,000 per acre for this
land and cannot justify dedicating land to the City for parkland,
especially since the school has no plans to develop the land.
Whitehead does not agree that the school will generate a need for
park space since they will have all these facilities at the school.
Whitehead added that the county removed at least 40 trees in order
to remove the county garage on this property and did not ask
permission of the school.
Referring to Bob Lambert's memo, Whitehead said she does not
understand why the preservation of the Nine Mile Creek valley and
floodplain and the north shore of Bryant Lake is so important to
the development of Bryant Lake Regional Park since the park is
already so large. She added that boarding children at the school
is only a concept for the future at this time and is not definite.
The school will have its own athletic field, gym and swimming pool
so it will not be necessary to use public facilities. If the City
requires the payment of cash park fees, the school would be unable
to continue with the project.
Lambert referred to a phone call he and Whitehead had a couple of
months ago when he told her that the City would require the payment
of cash park fees and the dedication of parkland to the City in
order to approve the proposal. Whitehead reviewed notes she had
taken of the phone conversation and did not recall any reference to
cash park fees or park dedication. Whitehead added that she
understands the City owes the Metropolitan Council $2400000 and
that if the school paid the cash park fees, this would erase the
debt. Lambert said this amount was paid back about 1-1/2 years ago
and the City no longer owes them any money; however, the City has
agreed to obtain as much land as possible through park dedication
and to sell the land to the Park District for regional parkland.
Whitehead said she questions if the payment of cash park fees will
be required with public zoning. Lambert indicated that the zoning
they apply for will not be the same as the existing ordinance
because the existing ordinance wouldn't allow their use.
Shaw asked about the ownership structure of the school. Whitehead
said the school has two owners and has been in the family for over
100 years. There are five other schools, but this will be the
first in the United States.

Cook asked if the school is a for profit organization. Whitehead
said the overseas schools are making money, but it will be some
time before this one makes any money.
Baker asked what size staff the school will have. Whitehead said
there are currently 41 staff for 100 students, but when it is
running at capacity, there will be about 300 staff.
Shaw asked the cost per student at the school. Whitehead said it
is about $450D this year and next year it will be about $5000.
Joyer asked what would happen if the school needed to use,public
facilities in the future. She also asked if the floodplain area
were dedicated to the city, will it prevent the school from using
the area. Lambert said the school will still be able to use the
area, but the floodplain is important to the park,:because-as much
shoreline and floodplain as possible should-be preserved forever.
Whitehead asked if a scenic easement could be considered"for land
in the floodplain. -
Cook feels that cash park fees should be applied to this
development because he feels certain the school will require public
facilities in the future.
Mikkelson asked if cash park fees are always paid in one lump sum.
Lambert said they are paid in furl when the developer applies for a
building permit. Mikkelson asked if there has ever been an
exception. Lambert said no. Mikkelson said perhaps the City
should make an exception for the school. Shaw said the school is
owned by a large corporation and is definitely not short of money
considering their proposed investment. "
MOTION: Shaw moved to recommend that the International School be
required to pay cash park fees and that a scenic easement be added
to the floodplain area to maintain control. Joyer seconded the
motion and it passed 6-0.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and Members of City Council
THROUGH: Carl Jullie, City Manager
FROM: Roger Pauly, City Attorney
SUBJECT: International School
DATE: March 13, 1987
As is evident from the Staff reports dnd minutes of meetings
Of commissions relating to this project, a number of objections
have been raised by the proponents as to the applicability and/or,
imposition of City Code provisions or other requirements upon'
the project. One of the more serious objections relates to
the dedication of a portion of the subject property for park
purposes.
\ This development proposal is rather unlike most of the
developments which have come before the Council because it
involves, among other things, the need to authorize a new use,
i.e., a private school in the public district. Such a use is
not now permitted in that district. Because the proposed use
is not now authorized in the public district there may be certain
use standards which may reasonably be required of private schools
which are different from or in addition to the standards for
other uses in the public district. There is a 'suggestion of
some of these in the Staff reports and Commission proceedings.
In other words, some of the conditions for a private school !
ram:
Page -2-
use in a public district should very likely be incorporated
as standards in the City Code rather than simply left to a
Developer's Agreement.
Recommendation 1. If the Council determines that
some or all of the matters raised in the Staff reports
or Commission proceedings have merit, the Council
should continue the public hearing and direct Staff
to draft such of those matters into the Code as
standards as may be appropriate. At the continued
hearing, the Council could then consider the Code
amendments in proper form.
With respect to the matter of dedication of land for
( park purposes, the proponent has asserted that such
a requirement is beyond the lawful authority of the
City and, has suggested, that insistence upon
compliance with this requirement may result in litiga-
tion against the City. I therefore call to your
attention the following: Minnesota Statutes §462.358
Subd. 2b provides in part as follows:
the regulations may require that a reasonable
portion of any proposed subdivision be dedi-
cated to the public or preserved for public
use as parks, playgrounds, trails, or open
space; provided that (a) the municipality
may choose to accept an equivalent amount
in cash from the applicant for part or all
of the portion required to be dedicated
to such public uses or purposes based on
the fair market value of the land no later
than at the time of final approval, (b) any i
cash payments received shall be placed in
a special fund by the municipality used
a ,
Page -3-
only for the purposes for which the money
was obtained, (c) in establishing the reason-
able portion to be dedicated, the regulations
may consider the open space, park, recrea-
tional, or common areas and facilities which
the applicant proposes to reserve for the
subdivision, and (d) the municipality reason-
ably determines that it will need to acquire
that portion of land for the purposes stated
in this paragraph as a result of approval
of the subdivision.
City Code §12.40 provides in part as follows:
Subd. 1. The owner of land being subdivided
for residential, commercial, industrial
or other uses, . . . shall dedicate to the
public for public use as parks, playgrounds
or public open space a reasonablb portion
of the land up to 10% thereof, as determined
by the City to be in the public interest
and necessary for such uses.
Subd. 2. At the City's option, the subdi-
vider shall contribute an equivalent amount
in cash, in lieu of all or a portion of
the land which the City may require such
owner to dedicate pursuant to Subdivision
1 hereof, in accordance with the schedule
to be set by resolution of the Council.
Subd. 4. The City may determine the location
and configuration of any land dedicated,
taking into consideration its suitability
for its intended purposes and how it will
best serve the public and future needs of
the community for such purposes.
Subd. 5. Land dedicated for the holding -
of storm or drainage water, power line ease-
ments or which is unusable or of limited
use may, at the option of the City, not
be deemed accepted by the City for purposes
of owner's compliance with Subdivisions
1 and 2 hereof . . .
Page -4-
Subd. 6. Where the owner provides for public
use, neighborhood park amenities such as,
but not limited to, tennis courts, ball-
fields, open space or other recreational
facilities, the City may reduce the amount
of land to be dedicated or the cash contribu-
tion in lieu of such dedication ley an amount
equivalent to the cost of the facilities
provided.
In Collis v. City of Bloomington, 246 NW2d 19 (1976)
the Minnesota Supreme Court stated that the words
"reasonable portion" are "construed to mean that
portion of land which the evidence reasonably
establishes the municipality will need to acquire
for the purposes stated as a result of approval of
the subdivision. This is, of necessity, a facts and
circumstances test, but it is the only kind of test
that will consider the myrad of factors which may
bear upon a municipality's needs for certain kinds
of facilities and the relationship of a particular
subdivision to those needs." In the Collis case the
Court had under consideration Bloomington City
Ordinance which provided for a dedication of 10% of
a developer's property or a contribution of 10% of
the value of that property for park purposes. The
land value was to be determined by an estimate of
i
market value as calculated by the City Assessor.
In considering this provision the Supreme Court stated
that the Assessor's determination is only prima facie
evidence of the undeveloped land value which may be
contested by the developer in a judicial review II
proceeding.
i .
Page -5-
In this case the proponents have asserted that there
was insufficient evidence presented to the Planning
Commission to justify imposition of the park land
dedication being sought by the City.
Recommendation 2. Unless the Council decides not
to impose a requirement upon International School
to dedicate a portion of its property, for park purposes
or to accept a cash contribution in lieu thereof,
the Council should refer the matter back to the
Planning Commission.to conduct a further public hearing
on the issue of whether and what amount of land would
constitute a reasonable portion which the City may
require to be dedicated by the developer for park
purposes in accordance with state statute and-case
law.

MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Michael D. Franzen, Senior Planner
THRTUGH- Chris Enger, Director of Planning-
DATE: March 13, 1987
SUBJECT: Williams Mini-Storage
Williams Mini-Storage is requesting a Rezoning of approximately,0.21 acres of
land fromRural to I-2 Park. When the City Council approved the:Rezoning from
Rural to I-2 Park, a site plan was approved for the pro3ect which included
more land than was described by legal description on the' preliminary plat for
the property. As a result, a strip of Land which is shown son the.,attached
preliminary plat was not zoned and would require an. I-2'Park zoning in.order
for the developer to proceed with the construction of Phase II Since the
attached site plan has been previously reviewed and approved by both the
Planning Commission and City Council, the request for rezoning is really a -
"housekeeping item" which would match the legal description of the property
with the boundaries of the property on the approved ,site plan.` The -Staff .
would recommend approval of the request for; Rezoning from Rural to I4 Park_
and require that the developer include the additional acreage in the final
plat of the property.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: David Lindahl, Assistant Planner
R UGH: Chris Enger, Director of Planning
DATE: March 13, 1987
RE: YEAR XIII (1987-88) PROPOSED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT
(COBG) PROGRAM
Eden Prairie, in joint cooperation with Hennepin County and approximately forty-
eight (48) other surrounding communities, is eligible to apply for Federal Community
Development Block Grant funds under the Urban County CDBG program.
The overall objective of the CDBG program is to provide housing and service
opportunities for low and moderate income families, elderly, and handicapped
individuals.
In past years, Eden Prairie has utilized CDBG funds for site acquisition for the
Edendale Retirement Residence, and the approved Prairie Village Apartments, which
will provide 56 units at reduced rents for the elderly; Housing Rehabilitation
Program; Home and Outside Maintenance for the Elderly (H.O.M.E.) Program; Greater
Minneapolis Daycare Association; improvements to the Senior Center; restoration to
the Cummins-Grill House; and park improvements.
Hennepin County has released a statement of local program objectives which are in
accordance with Federal CDBG objectives. Unlike .previous years, Hennepin County is
requesting as part of this year's objectives, that no more than three activities be
undertaken by any participating community with Year XIII funding and each activity
should be budgeted with at least $7,500. The Planning Department has used these
objectives in developing this year's CDBG proposed activities list. The City is
proposing to fund the following activities with Year XIII CDBG funds, starting July
1, 19B7:
NAME OF ACTIVITY PROPOSED ALLOCATIONS
(1) Public Service Activities:
a. Home and Outside Maintenance for the Elderly
(H.O.M.E.) - S 2,858.00
b. Greater Minneapolis Day Care Association
(G.M.D.C.A.) - $10,000.DD
(2) Housing Rehabilitation Program - $10,000.00
(3) Scattered Site Housing Assistance - $41,741.00
TOTAL ALLOCATION 564,599.00
�J�
PROPOSED CDBG ACTIVITIES (YEAR XIII 1987)
ACTIVITY/BUDGET/PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
*HOUSEHOLD AND OUTSIDE MAINTENANCE FOR ELDERLY (H.O.M.E.)
This program provides household and light outside maintenance to seniors 60 and
over. Services include heavy house cleaning, laundry, snow removal, small appliance
repair, installation of storm and screen windows, grocery shopping, and light
carpentry work. Since 1983, Eden Prairie has contributed, via CDBG funds, $11,058,
of which $9,732 has been expended serving 21 households. The remaining $1,326 is
expected to be spent within the next 11 months. The proposed $2,858 will facilitate
the program through 1988. Staff feels this is an appropriate allocation.
*GREATER MINNEAPOLIS DAY CARE ASSOCIATION
This program provides subsidized day care for low-income families. Funding Year XI
(1985-86) was the first year in which Eden Prairie contributed through the CDBG
program. Since then, $15,002 has been contributed to the program. The program has
subsidized nine families, six of which are single-parent households. Staff feels
$10,000 is an appropriate allocation for the next program year.
*HOUSING REHABILITATION GRANT PROGRAM
This program provides funds through a grant for housing improvements to income
eligible households. The City served two households with $5,851 in grant funds in
1986. Staff feels $10,000 is an appropriate allocation for the next program year.
*SCATTERED SITE HOUSING ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
This program will provide assistance to low-moderate income families in purchasing
homes in Eden Prairie. The City will use CDBG funds to subsidize lot costs of homes
being purchased by qualified families, therefore enabling them to purchase a home
which they might not otherwise have been able to afford. The City will place a
second mortgage on the property for the lot subsidy, which will be recovered in full
when the home is sold. ,-
i
The Scattered Site Program, by creating opportunities for low-moderate income
families to purchase homes of their own, promotes ownership, increases the supply of
affordable, habitable dwellings in Eden Prairie, and recovers CDBG funds originally
committed to the project.
Allocating the remaining balance of $41,741 to the Scattered Site Program will
assist up to three families in purchasing homes in Eden Prairie through 1987.
*Program has been previously funded
A recommendation to fund specific activities is required from the City Council prior
to submitting a proposal for the funds to Hennepin County.

frontage of 33.88 feet for each of the two lots. This tot is located on the corner
of Franklin Circle and has a total of 67.77 feet of lot frontage and is a non-
conforming lot. The proponent will be required to apply for, and receive, a
variance for lot frontage from the Board of Appeals.
Currently, there is an existing house located on Lot 1 and an office/garage
structure located on Lot 2. The preliminary plat has indicated that there are two
existing driveways which lead to each of the structures and can be used to serv,e any
proposed house. Should a variance be granted, Staff would recommend that the
proposed driveway locations be maintained and that any new structure built on Lot 2
would be located in the same position as the office/garage structure. This,'.would
include an approximate 70-foot front yard setback. The proponent will also be
required to maintain 15-foot sideyard setbacks along the common property line.
At this time, there is no grading proposed; however, some minor grading would be
expected to occur with any building construction. Water and sanitary sewer iservice
is available to the proposed lot from connections made to existing utilities in
Franklin Circle.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Staff would recommend approval of the,request of the preliminary plat of 1.04 acres
into two lots based on plans dated February 20, 19B7, subject to the recommendations
of the Staff Report dated March 6, 1987, and subject to the following'condition,s:
1. The proponent shall apply for, and receive, a variance for tot frontage from
the Zoning Board of Appeals.
2. Each of the structures shalt maintain a 15-foot sideyard setback from the
common lot line.
3. Any new structure built on Lot 2 shall be located in the same position as
the office/garage structure which would include an approximate 70-foot
frontyard setback, a 15-foot sideyard setback, and a 36-foot sideyard'
setback on the other side.

Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
THRU: Carl Jullie, City Manager
FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Service
DATE: March 13, 1987
SUBJECT: Supplementary Staff Report Topview Acres 5th Addition
The March 6, 1987 Planning Staff Report regarding Topview Acres 5th Addition
refers to the original request for an outlot 20' wide extending along and
adjacent to the north and northeastly lines of Lot 7 "as depicted on Exhibit B
and entitled Outlot B".
When the City of Eden Prairie reviewed the Arbor Glen Subdivision, located
immediately west of this site, the City determined the grades would be too'
steep to make the connection for the walkway from Topview Acres, and instead
concentrated on the proposed trail connection along Baker Road and.the trail
connection from Arbor Glen through to Cardinal Creek. The Community Services
Staff concur with the Planning Staff recommendation that the requirment for
the dedication of Outlot B for trail purposes be deleted.

Topview Acres 5th Addition 2 March 6, 1987
trequirements of the R1-13.5 zoning district. The outlot, which contains 0.97 acres
will be combined with the property to the north for future development. (See
Attachment)
Access to this site is being provided through Beehive Court and Gerard Drive which
are constructed streets. The proposed subdivision is consistent with the previously
approved concept plan (Attachment) which allowed for the zoning of this entire piece
of property to R1-13.5 with Ordinance #79-18 approved in 1979.
Pedestrian Systems
As part of the Developer's Agreement for Topview Acres 4th Addition, dated August 7,
1979, Section 3 states that the "Owner shall plat an Outlot 20 feet wide extending
along and adjacent to the North and Northeasterly lines of Lot 7 as depicted on
Exhibit 8 and entitled Outlot B. Upon request by the City, owner shall convey
utl� of B to the City for walkway and public trail purposes. Owner shall convey to
the City or dedicate to the City and the public for walkway and public trail
purposes, in lieu of (if the City has not then requested the conveyance thereof to
the City), that part of the property described as Outlot 8, Exhibit B, such portion
of Outlot C and D. Exhibit 8 as may be mutually agreed upon—T Tt e parties for
walkway and public trail purposes. Nothing herein shall limit the City's right to
require the conveyance to the City or dedication to the public of additional
walkways or public trails at such time as owner shall further subdivide or replat
that portion of the property described as Outlot C and D, Exhibit B. (See
Attachment)
Because there was no provision made for a trail connection within the Arbor Glen
subdivision to the west, Staff would recommend that the requirement for the
dedication of Outlot 8 for trail purposes be deleted.
Grading
Elevations on this site range from a minimum of 892 on the south property line
adjacent to Beehive Court to the 930 contour elevation which on the north property
line is part of Outlot A. Minimal grading is occuring on this site with a maximum
cut and fill of approximately three feet on Lots 1, 2, and 5. The site slopes in a

BE IT RESOLVED, by the Eden Prairie City Council as follows:
That"the preliminary plat of Prairie View 2nd Addition for Prairie View Associates,
dated February 23, 1987, consisting of 14.6 acres into two lots, a copy of which is

DATE: March 6, 1987 +
PROJECT: Prairie View Center 2nd Addition
LOCATION: North of Plaza Drive, east of Prairie Center Drive
APPLICANT/

REQUEST: Preliminary Plat of 14.6 acres into two lots.
Background r
This site is the location of the „T i
Prairie View Center which was _

three lots within this 16.7-acre
tract of land. Specific development a` 274 ^"

Lot 1, a future restaurant on Lot 2,
and an unspecified building on Lot

ceived a variance for the outside „—

used automobiles. Edina Sates and

square feet of interior space within ^�=,� \' 14-1
Prairie View Center. Based 6,000 ' AREA LOCATION MAP_
square feet of lease space,
the, the
Prairie View Center 2nd Addition 2 March 6, 1987
applicant is required to provide 35 parking stalls for retail business. Submitted
information indicates that of the 30 automobiles, twelve will be driven by employees
which leaves 18 permanently stored vehicles. If the twelve vehicles that are driven
by employees are credited towards the 35 required parking spaces, the remaining 18
spaces taken up by vehicles for sale and display would have to be replaced elsewhere
on the site in order to be in conformance with the required parking. Because the
opportunity to provide these additional parking stalls on-site, (Lot 1, Block 1,
Prairie View Center) does not exist, the proponent has requested the replatting of
Lots 1 and 3, Block 1, Prairie View Center Addition.
The Board of Appeals and Adjustments Findings and Order, signed and dated November
13, 1986, Section 2D states that "Variances granted under Sections 1A and 18 are
specifically conditioned on applicant's compliance with the following requirements:
"The applicant shall obtain a replatting of the property as proof-of-parking on
Exhibit C. Said replatting and rezoning shall be for the purpose of providing 18
parking stalls on said portion of the property at the sole discretion of the City.
It shall be determined whether additional parking spaces are required to service the
property. Should additional spaces be required, the owner of the property agrees to
construct, or cause to be constructed, hard surface parking spaces in the area
designated as proof-of-parking in Exhibit C. Attached hereto and made part hereof
upon written notice from the City, the owner shall construct proof-of-parking within
a three-month time period".
The proof-of-parking detail for Lot 1, Block 1, Prairie View Center Addition depicts
how the additional 18 parking stalls can be located. It also shows how a 5,400
square foot building and the associated parking can be placed on the remnant parcel
(Lot 2). Because of the variances required based on this scenario including parking
and building setbacks, the proponent will be required to develop a site detail which
eliminates all variances. Staff has revised the site plan which eliminates the
variances required if the 18 proof-of-parking stalls needed to be built (see
Attachment A). The proponent will be required to revise the site plan and
preliminary plat prior to Council review. In addition, in order for the replatting
of this property to proceed, the proponent will be required to apply for and receive
a variance for lot frontage on a publicly dedicated street or street that has
received legal status as such for Lot 2. Although the approved final plat depicts
that lot as not having any lot frontage, it is a non-conforming lot and will require
a variance.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
The Planning Staff would recommend approval of the request for the preliminary plat
of approximately 14.6 acres into two lots based on plans dated February 23, 1987,
and based on the Staff Report, dated March 6, 1987, and subject to the following
recommendations:
1. Prior to Council review, proponent shall revise the site detail for Lot 1,
Block 1, Prairie View Center Addition to eliminate all variances per
Attachment A.
2. Prior to Final Plat, the proponent will apply for and receive a variance
for lot frontage on Lot 2 from the Zoning Board of Appeals.
3. The proponent will be required to go through site plan review regarding any
possible building construction on Lot 2, Prairie View Center 2nd Addition. 3

SUBJECT: Baker Road Improvement Project
Project Number 52-085
Transmitted herewith is a copy of the cooperative construction agreement for
the responsibilities and cost allocation for the Baker Road improvement
project. The agreement includes a cost estimate for the project and provides
for a City share of $655,181.73.
The City Council reviewed the preliminary plans for this project an November
of 1987. At that time, a number.of issues were raised regarding sidewalk'
locations, pedestrian underpass and preservation of trees on the;wooded knoll
near the intersection of Edenvale Blvd. The plans that had been submitted for
approval by the Hennepin County DOT provides the resolution Anto all these
issues in accordance with our request. The plans show a bike trail.along the
entire length of the project on the east side of the roadway and.a sidewalk
along the west side. The project provides for a 'pedestrian underpass south of
Cardinal Creek Road which includes cast-in-place concrete-`headwalils,' railing
and safety barriers. The treatment for the culvert at the creek is similar in
design to the underpass - - headwalls, railing and approach barriers are
provided in a similar fashion. Finally, an. expensive retain wal-1 system is _
provided on the east side of Baker Road near the intersection of.Edenvale
Blvd. to maintain the wooded knoll.
The plans and specifications comply with the request of the City as made.
regarding this project and I therefore recommend approval and adoption of
resolution 87-72.

SUBJECT: City Manager Performance Review Form and
Procedure for Salary Adjustments
DATE: March 12, 1987
Pursuant to further discussions with Councilmember Harris and Ms. Swaggert,
attached is a modified final draft of the City Manager Performance
Evaluation Form. The only change from the prior draft given to the Council
at the March 3rd meeting is the addition of a sentence which is underlined
at the end of the third paragraph on page 1. This change we believe
addresses the Council's concern about an opportunity for giving information
to the public. With respect to determining which goals are appropriate to
list on the review form, I would suggest that the Council seta special
time, perhaps just before a regular Council meeting in the near future, to
discuss and determine such goals with input from the City Manager.
In addition to approving the review form, the Council may also wish to
adopt the following policy regarding a process for determining the City
Manager's future salary adjustments:
A. Any adjustments to the City Manager's salary should be made
as of January 1 of each year. All adjustments must be
specifically approved by the City Council.
B. The forthcoming compensation study pursuant to the comparable
worth process shall include a recommended salary range for the
City Manager position. This range should be consistent with
that of selected comparison cities and relevant data from the
private sector.
C. Annual adjustments for the City Manager should reflect a
combination of cost of living and merit which will be
reflected by performance results as determined by the Council.
D. Based upon the foregoing, the City Manager shall submit a
salary adjustment proposal for Council consideration at the
first regular meeting in December of each year.

TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Natalie J. Swaggert, Director of Human Resources
DATE: February 27, 1987
SUBJECT: Revised Performance Evaluation for City Manager Position
Attached, for your review, is the final draft of the proposed City Manager
Performance Evaluation. It reflects a number of changes which are an
outgrowth of the concerns and suggestions made by Patricia Pidcock and Jean
Harris in our recent work session. A highlight of the changes follows:
1. The Performance Evaluation process now provides for a "front end" goal
setting process. This is important because it clarifies expectations for
the City Manager, as well as the Council at the beginning of the review
period. It also provides an opportunity to tailor some goals specific to
the year ahead.
2. The performance standards or grading system has been revised. The
standards were increased from 4 to 5 and a definition of what each
performance standard should reflect is provided. This should ensure more
consistent application of the standards in scoring by the individual
Council member.
3. The actual content of the performance evaluation is based on the past set
of performance criteria; however, the criteria have been recategorized and
redundant criteria removed. The new format breaks the City Manager's
performance down to 3 classifications:
I. General
II. Job Responsibilities
A. Management of City Business & City Staff
B. Council Relations
D. Community Relations
III. Annual Goals and Objectives
4. Section III, Annual Goals and Objectives, is a new section and as noted
earlier is intended to reflect current issues, projects, etc. for which
the City Manager has accountability. An example of a goal might be -
successful completion of the City Hail move or successful implementation
of a Comparable Worth job evaluation process.
5. The final sections of the report, which summarize the City Manager's
overall performance, are the same as in the past. To help the evaluator
complie this section and ensure that proper priority is given to each
section of the performance criteria, a p of evaluation scoring factor has
been added to each of the III. main criteria, sections, I, II-A, II-B, I1-C and

DATE. March 3, 1987
SUBJECT: Communication
We have had occasional discussions related to conducting,our Council meetings
on cable T.V. There has also been some reference to a regularly scheduled
cablecast of community concern and interest.
Inasmuch as we are all aware of the importance of communication.within>and
among all segments of our City, especially in this period of rapid growth, and
realizing that an informed population is also an involved population, and
wanting to involve our residents in their city and its future, we are
committed to effective methods of communication.
I suggest, for your consideration, that we ask Staff to explore:
1) the feasibility of regularly cablecasting our Council meetings, and
2) the feasibility of a periodic (quarterly, monthly, weekly) cable show
is
specifically related to issues, persons, and events that affect Eden
Prairie.
The study should include costs of equipment and. Staff time, as well .as
informed opinion regarding the effectiveness of various formats. The study
might also address the need for a Staff person with expertise in
communication, either present or future hire.
Please reflect on the above and be prepared to discuss the concept at our next
regular meeting, March 17.
Thank you.

SUBJECT: Policy on Smoking at New City Hall and Other
City Buildings
DATE: March 13, 1987
Pursuant to the Council's direction at the March 3 meeting, the following policy is
recommended regarding smoking at the new City Hall and other City owned buildings:
1. Smoking at the new City Hall facilitiesis prohibited, except
that prior to January 1, 1988, City employees who choose to
smoke may do so only in the small conference room adjacent to
the Council Chambers and only with the,doorto that room closed.
Any time taken for smoking, other than during usual break time,
shall be kept to a minimum and shall be made up by taking
correspondingly less break time or by working extra time.
2. The City Manager shall develop and implement similar policies
for all other City owned buildings. i
3. Employees who violate these policies shall be subject to the I
discipline procedures for violation of the City's personnel
policies.
4. As an incentive for employees and/or their immediate
family members to quit smoking, the City will reimburse employees
for 80% of the cost of participation in an approved non-smoking
program. The total amount of such reimbursement shall not '-
exceed $400 per family unit.
The enclosed article "Up in Smoke" describes the serious health problems that can result
from smoking in the workplace and the increasingly restrictive preventative measures=that
employers are implementing. It is also evident that employers are being held liable.by
the courts for not taking action to prevent smoke in the workplace. The eventual goal of
a totally smoke-free environment seems very justifiable and probably inevitable.
