MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
THRU: Carl Jullie, City Manager
FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources
DATE: January 6, 1989
SUBJECT: Request to Flood Preserve Homeowner's Association Pond
Councilman Tenpas has received a request from residents in the vicinity of
Amsden Way and Anderson Lakes Parkway for the City to flood a pond area for a
skating rink. The pond is located within Outlot C of Amsden Hills Second
Addition and is owned by the Preserve Homeowner's Association. The neighbors
have apparently removed some of the snow on the pond and would like the City
to flood the pond in order to allow skating. The request is for a single
flooding.
The nearest skating rink is at Preserve Neighborhood Park, nearly a mile away.
In order for staff to initiate this project on private property, we will need
authorization from the City Council, authorization from the Preserve
Homeowner's Association Board of Directors, and a liability waiver from the
City to the Preserve Homeowner's Association indicating that the City will
accept liability for any accidents that may occur due to the maintenance of
this skatiny pond.
It should be noted that it is highly unlikely that one flooding will provide a
satisfactory skating surface, and staff would not recommend initiating this
project unless the City plans to continue flooding until the ice is at a safe
skating condition. The City should also decide at this time whether or not we
are going to maintain this as a public rink for the remainder of the season
ie. removing snow and continued flooding, etc.
There is safe access to the pond from the east and west, as the pond fronts on
Amsden Way to the west, and there is an outlot between two homes on the east
that would provide pedestrian access from Garrison Way to the east. There has
been no trail developed within that outlot; therefore, there may be a problem
with adjacent property owners allowing children to walk to that pond through
the outlot, as it unsigned and has never been used as a trailway.
Staff would recommend that if Council authorizes maintenance of this skating
rink, that the use of the rink be monitored through the remaining part of the
skating season to determine if this pond should be a designated skating rink
for future years.

FROM:
Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources
DATE:
January 6, 1989
SUBJECT: Recommendation Regarding Park Planner/Golf Course Architect
On January 5, 1989, two planning firms were interviewed for the position of
park planner/golf course architect as per the attached Request for Proposal.
Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources; Barb Cross,
Park Planner; Chris Enger, Director of Planning; Mike Fransen, Assistant
Planner; and Gene Dietz, Director of Public Works, conducted the interview.
Attached are summaries of the professional services proposal from each firm.
Brauer and Associates committed to complete the work project by February 14
for a fee of $6,360. The design team would be made up of Paul Fjare and
George Watson. Brauer and Associates have been involved with many golf
course studies, and Paul and George list the nine golf courses actually
constructed that were designed by them.
Barton-Ashchman Associates committed to complete the work project by Febraury
14 for a fee of $10,000. The project team includes Barry Warner, as Project
Manager; Craig Schreiner and Dr. Michael Hurdzan of Kidwell and Hurdzan Golf
Course Architects as the Design Architects for the team, Dave Warzala of
Barton-Aschman as Civil Engineer, Dave Koski as Traffic Engineer, Donn Wiski
of Resolution, Inc. as Land Planning and Economics Consultant and Barry
Warner and Paul Miller as Park Planning and Design Landscape Architects.
Doctor Michael Hurdzan of the Kidwell and Hurdzan Golf Course Architect firm
has been a golf course architect for 18 years and has designed golf courses
throughout the State of Ohio, as well as in Indiana, West Virginia,
Massachusetts, Kentucky, North Carolina, Florida and Texas.
Craig Schreiner, Senior Designer for the Kidwell Hurdzan Firm, has designed
golf courses in Kansas and Oklahoma, and most recently worked with
Barton-Aschman in the design of the new 18 hole golf course at Baker Park.
(The first nine holes that have been completed have been rated higher that the
Edinburgh course.)
Upon review of the presentations by both planning firms, the staff unanimously
recommend Barton-Aschman Associates, Inc. for this project. The team had
already inspected the site and presented the nine major issues that must be
addressed through the process and the five major tasks that will be
accomplished in order to address those issues. They bring to this project a
golf course architecture firm that has completed over 125 golf courses since
1958 and a park planning design team that has extensive experience in park
planning, as well as working with residential subdivisions and the
relationship between golf courses and adjacent property.
They discussed several unique ideas for intergrati

TIME TABLE:
PURPOSE OF THE REQUEST:
SCOPE OF THE WORK:
Deadline for receiving proposals is December 30,
1988. Interview prospective firms week of
January 2, 1989. Council to give notice to
proceed January 10, 1989. Completion of
schematic plans by February 14, 1989.
The City Council is considering a park bond
referendum for April of 1989. One of the items
the City wishes to consider is the acquisition
of a large community park that would include the
following:
a. Minimum of 20 acres of community park space
for picnicking and passive recreation on the
Minnesota River bluffs.
b. An 18 hole golf course that would include a
clubhouse that could also serve as a
community park building.
c. A softball field complex.
The Council needs to see a schematic plan to
know how much land must be acquired and the
property owner needs to be assured that his
remaining property is developable.
To provide a report to the City Council by
February 14, 1989 that would include the
following:
a. A minimum of three schematic plans depicting
an 18 hole course layout. One plan
including an 18 hole golf course that
incorporates the existing par 3 into the new
18 hole golf course. The second plan
depicting the 18 hole golf course completely
separate from the existing par 3 with no
relationship to the par 3. The third plan
depicting the 18 hole golf course separate
from the par 3, but including the par 3 in
the acquisition of the total site.
b. Include in the acquisition a minimum of 20
acres of land on the Minnesota River bluff
used as a community park for picnicking and
other passive recreation. The golf course
clubhouse should be located adjacent to the
park property with a view of the Minnesota
River valley and designed so that the
clubhouse can be used as a park shelter on a
year-round basis by all residents of the
community. This criteria places many
restrictions on the design of the course,
but is critical for this concept.
c. City staff have already completed a design
for a ballfield complex on this site. This
design should be incorporated into the
acquisition.
d. A single property owner owns approximately
550 acres in this area. It Is mandatory
that the planner work with the property
owner on the schematic design for this park
in order to assure the property owner that
the remaining land has maximum frontage on
the golf course, and that the development of
these recreation facilities improve the
value of his remaining property.
e. The final report must provide a reproducible
200 scale schematic plan for this entire
site and one colored rendering suitable for
presentation purposes at 200 scale.
f. The final report must include 50 copies,
including a narrative describing the
schematic plan and a reproducible plan that
can fit on an 8"x11" page.
EVALUATION CRITERIA: Proposals will be reviewed based on the
following:
a. Background of planning firm that has
experience in park planning, golf course
design and single family and multi-family
residential land use planning.
b. Reviews of golf course studies and golf
course designs completed by the firm that
have been constructed. (Only include golf
courses that have been completed by the
staff that will be assigned to this
project.)
c. Review of the proposed process for
completing this project within the proposed
time line.
d. Comparison of the fees to be charged for
this project.
e. Graphic presentation.
f. Writing style and clarity.
PROPOSAL FORMAT:
The proposal should include members of the
project team, their profiles and relative
experience on similar projects. Proposals
should also include names and examples of
similar projects, as well as the name of the
individual in charge of those projects.
The procedure and time sequence your firm will
follow to complete this project by February 14,
1989 should be included. (January 10 to
Febraury 14)
Explain your fees to complete this project and
provide a not to exceed fee.

Re: Golf Course Design Schematics
Dear Mr. lambert and Members of the Selection Committee:
Many of the traditional golf course feasibility indicators suggest that
opporhmity exists for a municipal golf course in Eden Prairie. These
positive factors include public interest, preliminary market area
intonation, camunity den:graphics and a growing trade area. However,
rapid development of Eden Prairie land is quickly consuming parcels
available for actual golf course developent. It is prudent that Eden
Prairie determine which parcels Should be cormdtkxed for acquisition and
preserve the opportunity for future golf course development.
A number of issues exist which Should be staxlied by this or other planning
studies. These include:
1. Whidh parcels should be acquired for ultimate golf course developnent
and what is their anticipated cost?
2. at future abutting land uses Should be developed to coexist with the
golf course?
3. To which development program and configuration should the golf course
adhere?
4. Is the golf course layout compatible with the future of the MAC Flying
Cloud Airport?
5. Can a routing and circulation plan that is compatible with the
clubhouse location and an abutting camtunity park be determined?
6. What implications will future utility and roadway changes have on the
golf course development?
7. Can a golf course configuration be developed consistent with adjacent
property owner expectations?

course architecture firm with experience in both pUblic and private golf
course design and development. Kidwell and HUrdzan has specific experience in providing ecologically sensitive golf course designs while maintaining
options for Abutting private sector development. Resolution Inc. will
enhance the team by providing land use, economic and golf course feasibility
skills. Resolution assisted Barton-Aschman with the Inver Grove Heights
study and also completed a revenue bond feasibility analysis for the Baker
Golf Course project. Barton-Aschman has worked extensively with both firms and has solicited their involvement to provide Eden Prairie with the
expertise required by this assignment.
We have enjoyed completing Eden Prairie's Carprehensive Park and Open Space
Plan and view this assignment as an important extension of that project. We
look forward to extending the close rapport which we have developed with the
city staff and in working with Lynn Charlston or his representative on the
project. Our scope of services includes two group charettes, or working
sessions, in which the consulting team would be assisted by the city staff and the private property owner in attaining a satisfactory solution for all
parties.

Otriective:
TO gather the involved parties together to collectively identify issues and
opportunities to whidh the golf course development Should respond.
Discussion:
Development of a pUblic golf course in Eden Prairie will involve a variety
of individuals including city depulment heads, the private property owner,
and the consulting team We believe that dicelmsions should commence early
in the planning process to all eadh concerned individual an opportunity to
participate in the project. This task will be centered around a group iji
"charette", or brainstorming session, in an effort to begin these
diqrmlions and cammuxe the process. The charette's agenda should include:
ri
IJI
1. A dig,nigsion of the site's physical opportunities and constraints
including topography, road layout and drainage ways.
2. Land ownership and agency jurisdictions Should be confirmed.
3. Existing development restrictions or other planning study's conclusions
should be acknowledged.
4. Proposed infrastructure changes including roadway realignment, and
utility extension should be discussed
5. Development opportunities for private sector parties should be reviewed
including land-use type, density and location.
6. Other park and recreation facilities which exist or are proposed Should
be summarized and their inplications for golf course development
identified.
7. Restrictions for golf course layout should be identified including
clubhouse location, the existing Cedar Hills facility, access,
contiguous parcel requinnents and proximity to the Flying Cloud
facility.
Those attending the dinette should also examine evaluation criteria for
golf course layout alternatives. These criteria may include development
costs, acquisition costs, opportunity for private sector development, course
routing, compatibility with other park and open space development, course
quality and similar topics.
This dharette should be held in City Hall with a time span of two to four
hours.

TASK 3: PREPARATION OF LAYOUT SCHEMES
Obiective:
To provide three schematic golf course plans whidh respond to Eden Prairie's
needs.
Discussion:
The consulting team, with input from the initial group charette, will
provide three schematic plans depicting the golf course layout. Those plans
will include:
1. An 18-hole golf course that incorporates into its layout the existing
par three Cedar Hills facility.
2. An 18-hole golf course completely independent from the existing par
three Cedar Hills facility.
3. An 18-hole golf course facility which acquires the existing par three
Cedar Hills facility and maintains Cedar Hills as a public par three.
In addition, the schematic plans will designate 20 acres of land on the
Minnesota River bluff to be used as a community park for picnicking and
other paRsive recreation. The plans will also recognize the proposed adult
athletic ballfield complex located north of the proposed golf course.
fliture private sector development is key to the golf course's economic
feasibility. Each of the schematics will identify potential parcels for
private sector development, a general statement of land use type and their
density. Development configurations will be determined in part by the golf
course layout and routing requirements, topography, roadway ass and
abutting land use.
These schematic plans will be drawn on a reproducible 200 scale nap.
Product:
Three design schematics depicting various configurations of the golf course
consistent with the development program.
Client Involvement:
Review and comment on task products.
TASK 4: GROUP CHARMS TO REVICEW SCSEMAT/C AUM:RNATIVES
Cbdective:
To collectively review the three golf course alternatives in a group
charette discussion.
Similar to the charette described in TAsk 2, this meeting will provide an
opportunity for involved city staff, the land owner and the (=suiting team
to collectively review each of the prepared design schematics. Discussion
will concentrate on eadh schematic's strengths and weaknesses based upon the
1 evaluation criteria identified as a part of the Task 2 exercise.
The Charette process may include the group weighting each of the evaluation
criteria and scoring the schematic alternatives.
Participation from the group charette will give each concerned individual or
department the opportunity for design schematic input. Preliminary
agreement as to which alternative is the most prudent will also be
established. This participation will assist in providing Eden Prairie
voters with the most appropriate golf course scheme to be included as a part
of the upcoming park and open space bond issue.

conducted, along with capacity analysis of the existing and proposed course.
Alternative revenue projections were formulated, based on capacity
competition and a mix of different revenue-producing factors. Finally, an
operating and maintenance budget was prepared. The operating debt service
and development cost figures were compiled into a working pro forma to
examine a number of financial alternatives before the park district.
Included in this session were alternative methods for imlementation. The
park district received proposals for private participation in the
construction of the facility, based on the recommendations contained in the
report.

HOPKINS, KINMESOM
Barton-Aschman was contracted by the Oak Ridge Country Club, Hopkins,
Minnesota, to provide land use guidance and conceptual design assistance for future expansion and development of their country club facilities. Elements
included in the plan were: 1) swimming, tennis and cabana complex, 2)
expansion of clubhouse, entertainment and service activities, 3) relocation
and expansion of space for golf cart storage, and 4) increased parking. The
issues, opportunities and constraints of the club's future development were
examined through a series of initial meetings with the club's Long Range
Planning Cemmittee. Ideas for land use patterns were reviewed and revised
during subsequent meetings.
Oak Ridge also requested Barton-Aschnen to generate site design concepts for
the areas to be developed. Initial site inventory included a survey of
topography, soils, view/vistas, vegetation and surrounding land use.
Circulation and space requirements of the various program elements were
investigated. A number of design concepts were generated and presented to
the Committee. With their approval, one concept was refined and a schematic
site plan developed.
BIG MAMIE PARK RESERVE MASTER PLAN; WASKCIVION cooler, KINNISOTA
Intended to preserve significant examples of the northeast ground moraine in
northern Washington County, the Big Marine Park Reserve project has drawn
considerable public interest from its inception. The general land area
recommended by Metropolitan Council park planners and a previous Washington
COunty park facilities study encompasses a number of parcels of land that
are privately owned. Barton-Aschman's master planning effort entails an
important land-use planning/justification study to identify specific parcels
whose geologic or environmental characteristics are valuable enough to
warrant acquisition.
The park includes almost four miles of Shoreline on Big Marine Lake, the
extensive wetland/floodplain system bordering the south end of the lake, relatively unaltered examples of southern dry-mesic forest on the upland
hills bordering the floodplain and several parcels of essentially level land
that are currently cultivated.

reseals, developing a nature center and adding interpretive facilities, and
reorganizing facilities within the park.
A special citizens advisory candttee was formed to work with the onsultant
and state parks department to guide the development of the plan. This
carefully selected cammittee, consisting of representatives of the major
user grairs and the public at large, prodded major planning input and
helped to refine design plans during the various stages.
SOCHACAI COMMUNITY PARK /CASTER PLAN AND DETAIL DESIGN; ROBBINSDALE,
mimics=
Barton-Asamen completed the master develareent plan and detail design for
Sochacki Park, a 37-acre parcel, in Robbinsdale, Minnesota. The plan's major goal was to transform the site into a passive camanity recreation
area by preserving its wetlands and other natural characteristics and
reclaiming areas previcusly used for duaping.
Sadecki Park's developnent provides the ocemmmdtywith natural interpretive
areas that can be used by all age groups, including Robbinsdale's elderly
population. Planned perk develcpment included a wildlife viewing area and
raised viewing deck. The trail system, utich inclales a floating board-
walk, provides interpretation of the wetlands, prairie, and woodland
habitats. A future picnic pavilion and nulti-use area will ally for group
activities. Sochacki Park connects to a subregional trail system and
provides parking areas for vehicle users. Barton-Asamen prepared detail
design documents and provided construction chservation during the facility's initial development phases.

As a consequence, when a client asks a question of the princi
p
l
e
,
he receives an answer based upon a thorough knowledge of
t
h
e
project.
Having specialized in the business of park and recreatio
n
a
l
planning design for over 25 years, we have an intim
a
t
e
understanding of client needs and concerns. Catering to these
h
a
s
been and continues to be our prime focus.
Based on our past experience, we are confident that the proj
e
c
t
approach outlined in the following text will assure that
a
l
l
information pertinent to the project will be research
e
d
,
analyzed, reviewed and incorporated along with determined prog
r
a
m
elements in the development of a complete and comprehensive pl
a
n
.
Project schedules are carefully developed and adhered to by o
u
r
firm. At times this may even mean we turn work away, so as to n
o
t
compromise current client project schedules.

Approach December 27, 1988
89111-1
As with any recreational land development, your project will have
a unique development program as well as a unique physical
setting. Though no other project has been or will be exactly like
yours, certain planning and design steps remain constant. Each
step outlined below will need to be addressed.
We would expect that consideration of the current landowners
concerns and future development plans for the property will play
a role in shaping the final park and golf course plan.
Accordingly we have indicated in our Scope of Work / Timeline,
early and frequent contact with the land owner. We will of course
be available at any time for review of the study process. Due to
the relatively small amount of time available to complete the
study we would suggest setting meeting dates early in the process
for input and review by both the city and the land owner. Joint
meetings would be most productive, allowing discussion and
resolution of the issues as they arise.
SCOPE OF WORK / TIMELINE
Step 1 will revolve around research and analysis of existing
physical conditions, the development program, planning
considerations and governmental approval issues pertinent to the
project.
Task 1.a. Review and become familiar
with the cities specific
goals and objectives for
the study and project
Program.
Task 1.b. - Meet with the property owner
to determine his goals and
objectives and incorporate
and document these along with
Task 1.a.

Task 1.c. - Collect and review all
available data including
boundary survey, topographic
mapping, air photos, soil
mapping or soil boring logs,
easement or land use
restrictions and other data
having a bearing on the
process. Document data and
on-site analysis illustrating
opportunities and constraints.
Task 1.d. - Prepare a project base map @
1" = 200' for use throughout
the study.
Jan. 13, 1989
Jan. 18, 1989
Task 1.e. - Inventory of the natural and
man made physical conditions
of off-site factors effecting
the project including
existing and proposed adjacent
land use, utility locations
and potential site access.
Document these conditions and
factors. Jan. 20, 1989

STEP 2 will entail the development of preliminary schematic golf
course routing / overall land use plan.
Task ?.a. - Prepare a minimum of three,
(3), schematic golf course
routing / land use plans.
One plan shall include an 18
hole golf course that
incorporates the existing par
3 into the new course. The
second plan depicting the 18
hole course completely
separate from the existing
par 3 and with no relationship
to the par 3. The third plan
depicting the 18 hole course
separate from the par 3, but
including the par 3 in the
acquisition of the total site.
Included in each of these plans
will be the acquisition of 20
acres of river bluff to be used
as a community park. All three
plans shall also incorporate
the concept of the year round
use and proximity of the
clubhouse / park shelter, as
well as, the pre-designed
ballfield complex. Each plan
shall illustrate access and
potential use for the
developable land remaining in
the land owners parcel.
These plans will strive to
maximize golf course frontage
for residential development
and will indicate property
lines and parcel acreages. Feb. 1, 1989

STEP 3 will entail the development of a final golf course
routing / land use plan.
Task 3.a. - Revise and finalize the
preferred golf course routing /
land use plan per city staff
and property owner comment.
Task 3.b. - Prepare 50 copies of the
final report documentation,
including 1 reproducible 200
