MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Waste Management Commission
SUBJECT: Proposal for Better Management of Household Hazardous Waste
DATE: October 5, 1989
Household hazardous wastes are being collected and disposed with the rest
of the solid waste generated by residents. More responsible management of
household hazardous wastes is necessary because they cause contamination of
water and air in and around landfills. Waste collection personnel are not
trained or qualified to collect household hazardous wastes. Furthermore,
their vehicles are not equipped to transport these wastes; toxic and
flammable liquids and gases can accumulate within the truck itself.
Greater concern needs to be shown for the environment and for those persons
who handle household hazardous wastes.
While county and state regulations exist to minimize the disposal of
household hazardous wastes at waste processing facilities and landfills,
they have not had a history of effective management on the receiving end.
We recommend that this problem be addressed at the source - the residence -
and that new regulations be adopted which:
1) prohibit the placement of household hazardous wastes to be
collected unseparated from the rest of residential waste;
and
2) prohibit refuse collectors from collecting household
hazardous wastes in a manner where they are combined with
other refuse.
The Commission recommends that the City Council endorse and forward this
proposal to the Hennepin County Board of Commissioners. This proposal
addresses an issue which has not been thoroughly incorporated into the
overall waste management system.

which authorizes execution of an agreement in order for the City to receive
funding assistance;
NOW,THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Eden Prairie

requirements for its recycling funding assistance.

TO: Mayor and City Council
Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission
THRU: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation & Natural
Resources
FROM: Stuart A. Fox, Manager of Parks and Natural Resources
DATE: October 10, 1989
SUBJECT: Round Lake Softball Field Improvements
In the approved budget for 1989, for park maintenance activities,
there was a capital outlay expenditure of $8000 for softball field
improvements. The amount budgeted was for the extension of
outfield fences on five fields, as well as side fences for two
fields. The cost for these improve-ments would be paid for in the
upcoming years by team registration fees.
Specifications for the work were prepared and mailed to several
contractors, with the bids being opened on Thursday, October 5,
1989. The specifications called for the following work:
1. Extension of 8 sections of the 8' high outfield fences, for a
total of 116 lineal feet of 8' fence.
2. Installation of a 5' high side fence on fields number 2 and 3,
totalling 360 lineal feet of fencing.
3. Relocation of the player's benches with a concrete pad under
them to reduce maintenance problems.
The following is a summary of the bids submitted:
Finley Bros. Enterprises DBA Tennis West $8,098.60
Viking Fence and Construction Company $12,392.10
Bids were also sent to two other fencing companies; however, they
did not bid on the project.
RECOMMENDATION:
The staff recommends that the City Council award the bid for the
ballfield improvements at Round Lake Park to Finley Bros. Enter-
prises in the amount of $8,098.60.

RE: Oetached Frontage Road South of TH 5 at Dell Road
The purpose of this memo is to provide background information for Resolution
No. 84-222 which authorizes preparation of plans and specifications for a
detached frontage road with utilities south of TH 5 and east of Dell Road and
Resolution No. 89-223 requesting MnOOT to consider early construction of the
previously referenced detached frontage road.
The approved layout plan for TH 5 includes a detached frontage road extending
easterly from Oe11 Road along the south side of TH 5 to provide access to
three existing homes along the west shore of Mitchell Lake southerly of TH 5.
These three homes now take direct access to TH 5 via a shared driveway
extending north along the west side of Mitchell Lake. This driveway access
will be terminated as part of the improvements to TH 5 scheduled to begin
construction in April of 1990. (A reduced copy of the layout plan showing the
detached frontage road is attached to this memo.)
The properties through which the proposed detached frontage road would be
constructed are owned by Tandem Properties and M-R/US HOT. Both properties
are currently the subject of development proposals. A residential collector
street facility extending through both properties is proposed on the
approximate alignment of the detached frontage road as shown on the TH 5
layout plan. MnOOT has agreed to participate in the construction cost for a
residential collector street facility in an amount equivalent to the
estimated construction cost for the detached frontage road facility proposed
in the approved layout plan. This is most easily accomplished by entering
into a cooperative construction agreement with the City of Eden Prairie.
cased on onstruc the desin and
t the collector road facilityproperty petition from the o
withuti the City
litiesThroughla cooperative
construction agreement, MnDOT will reimburse the City a portion of the cost
equivalent to the proposed detached frontage road construction. The
additional cost incurred by the City to upgrade the frontage road to a
collector street facility with utilities will be assessed to the abutting
benefited parties.
Resolution No. 89-222 directs the preparation of plans and specifications for
the proposed facility in accordance with MSA 420.031, Subdivision 3 and
Resolution No. 89-223 requests MnOOT's participation in project costs through
a Cooperative Construction Agreement.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
THROUGH: City Manager Carl J. Jullie
FROM: Assistant to the City Manager Craig W. Dawson
SUBJECT: Proposal from Eco Solutions, Inc.
DATE: October 11, 1989
Eco Solutions, Inc., a non-profit organization, is planning to conduct
surveys of solid waste patterns in a central city neighborhood and a
suburban neighborhood. These "garbage audits" would compile an inventory
of residential waste composition, purchasing patterns, and disposal
practices. Aside from the value of gathering data, the primary aims of the
study are to find ways to inform people how to reduce their amount of
waste, how to recycle more of their waste, and how to make purchasing
decisions which are less detrimental to the environment.
Eco Sol
utionsy f it ling to ipate itis
suburban portion of the study. As outlined in the attached proposal, costs
to the City would be for in-kind services related to assembling
information. No additional funds would need to be expended.
The Waste Management Commission has reviewed this proposal and given its
endorsement. It believes that the study would be valuable to Eden Prairie
if it were selected as the suburban community to be included.
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Council approve the City's
participation in the study proposed by Eco Solutions, Inc., and to
communicate its willingness to commit the in-kind resources requested.

RE: Residential Waste Survey
Dear Mr. Dawson:
I am writing to invite Eden Prairie's participation in the
Residential Waste Survey Project, a pilot program for a promising
new waste reduction technique. The Project is seeking
participation from 250 residents in each of two locations, one of
which will be the Phillips neighborhood of Minneapolis. We would
be very happy to have Eden Prairie as our second Project site.
Eco Solutions is raising all funds and needs your participation
only in a limited capacity, which is explained below.
Enclosed is a general description of the Project, which involves
going through homes with the residents, analyzing their waste-
handling habits, and suggesting ways to reduce the amount of
material that leaves the home as "waste." Eden Prairie would be
a good second Project site due to its location, size,
socioeconomic factors, and waste handling programs, which make it
good for comparison with our first site.
What we will need from the City, the County, or the appropriate
person are information and assistance in the following areas:
*basic demographic data on the City (population, number of
households, types of residences, income levels, etc.);
*information on garbage and recycling systems and routes,
and on other existing waste handling opportunities;
*access to any available data on the amount of waste
currently generated in the City and on that waste's composition;
*information on existing ways to provide Project information
to the public; and
*a letter from the City or the appropriate governing body
committing the above resources to the Project.
In most cases, someone will only need to assist our research
staff in locating the needed information. We anticipate that
most of this assistance could be provided in a few phone calls or
office visits.
LI 1!V'Y ryrU 1/ra/r..r
a9x
We expect no funds from you, although any help in the form of in-
kind services would be very much appreciated. An example of the
type of in-kind services I have in mind would be letting us place
our marketing materials in City or County mailings or
publications. Naturally, if several cities are interested in
being our second Project site, the provision of in-kind services
will influence our decision.
We believe that reducing solid and hazardous wastes and promoting
recycling and composting will be beneficial to the government and
people of Eden Prairie. We also believe that our Project will
serve as a complement to your existing waste handling programs.
Please let me know if you have questions. Otherwise, I will
contact your office on or about September 22. Thanks for your
interest!

INC. -- -THE RESIDENTIAL WASTE SURVEY PROJECT
Disposal of solid waste is currently the nation's third largest
domestic expenditure, costing $6 billion annually just for collection
and disposal. In addition, there are the staggering costs associated
with environmental degradation. On the Federal level, 1988
allocations for pollution control and regulation were $1.5 billion,
of which $398,000 (.0265%) was for waste minimization. The State of
Minnesota has already spent $20 million on "Superfund" clean-up of
leaky disposal sites and anticipates spending as much as $67 million
just for existing sites.
The waste problem is also an energy problem. Every step of the
mining, agriculture, manufacture, wholesale, transportation, and
retail processes uses energy. When an item is made for only one use
or disposed of before its useful life is over, the energy used in its
creation can never be recaptured. So failing to minimize wastes also
contributes to acid rain and the greenhouse effect.
The Residential Waste Survey is a new approach to the waste problem,
attacking the problem on the individual level. The Residential Waste
Survey is:
*a waste reduction tool,
*a public service campaign,
*a recycling promotion program,
*an energy-saving strategy,
*an environmental protection plan,
*a resource conservation action,
*an empowerment project, and
*an answer to local government's most vexing problem.
The Residential Waste Survey is currently being developed by Eco
Solutions, a Minnesota nonprofit corporation founded in November,
1988, with the goal of preventing pollution by dealing with the
"front end" of environmental problems. The idea of a residential
"Garbage Audit" was born during a meeting of the Minnesota Solid
Waste Policy Report Task Force, of which Eco Solutions' Chair was a
member. The basic objective is to reduce the amount of household
garbage, and hence reduce the need for additional waste facilities,
clean-up of hazardous waste sites, and the commitment of non-
renewable resources to the waste stream.
The Survey Project will include:
(1) going through 500 homes (250 each in two target
neighborhoods) and determining what trash is produced there;
(2) educating the residents about how what trash is produced,
what steps might be taken to reduce trash production, recycling
methods and availability, composting methods, proper disposal of any
hazardous waste, and the effects of the more problematic items on the
environment;
•'s
a9rY
•
(3) encouraging residents to reduce their general and hazardous
waste production, giving specific steps for action and information on
local resources; and
(4) gathering information for municipal and other agencies on
the types and amounts of trash being generated and on easily
adoptable reduction strategies.
The Waste Survey answers a basic problem of the current waste glut.
The public is aware of waste problems -- a recent Gallup Poll showed
that 41% of Americans are "extremely concerned" about the problems
associated with garbage -- but individuals must take a great deal of
initiative to find out what they can do to help beyond simple
recycling. Our project will send resource people into residences to
answer questions specific to that household. The types of questions
a Residential Waste Survey will ask are summarized in Attachment A.
Residents will also gain a sense of having some control over the
garbage problem. And unlike conventional programs, the Waste Survey
addresses the entire problem, rather than separating solid wastes,
hazardous wastes, composting and recycling.
The true cost of our current garbage habits is the cost of wasted
resources. What is commonly called a "high standard of living" is
actually a "high standard of depletion" of our national resource
base. Since the U.S. produces twice as much garbage per day per
capita as other industrial nations, these problems are basic to our
national economy and long-term security.
Project activities, which are expected to last two years, include:
*researching the composition, manufacture, and disposal of
common wastes, the short-term costs and savings for household waste
options, and the long-term costs of various disposal options;
*finding available waste reduction and recycling information;
*preparing waste information for use by the average resident,
where such materials don't already exist;
*developing Survey forms;
*choosing two test Waste Survey neighborhoods;
gathering information on existing area waste options;
*preparing and using promotional materials;
*performing 500 Waste Surveys; and
*doing a complete evaluation, including waste reduction
measurements, and follow-up phone calls to Survey participants.
Funds have been received for development activities, which are
underway. To fund the remainder of this Project, we are seeking
foundation, corporate, civic, and individual contributions. If the
initial Project is as successful as expected, the materials and
expertise developed would be used to make the Residential Waste
Survey a national campaign, which we expect to be publicly funded.
Further information is available from Lilias Jones, Project
Coordinator.
100% Recycled Paper
ATTACHMENT A: THE RESIDENTIAL WASTE SURVEY- A PRELIMINARY OUTLINE
Some of the items Waste Surveys will cover include the following:
(1) Recycling: does the resident take part in basic recycling
activities offered in the area: 'glass, cans, newspaper, corrugated,
etc. If not, what information can help him/her take part. Does the
person have problems such as lack of space, inability to carry, lack
of knowledge of recycling locations/dates, that the auditor can help
with;
(2) Yard/Garden: how are lawn and other biodegradable wastes
disposed. Composting should be encouraged, and these wastes should
be separated from the general waste stream. Lawn and garden chemical
use should be discussed. Non-chemical pest control information
should be given out, for both in-house and lawn applications;
(3) Hazardous Materials: how are hazardous materials used and
disposed of. Does the resident know which items are hazardous when
released into the environment. In which ways can their use be
minimized: for example, using mist containers, rather then
pressurized sprays. Is the resident aware of the best on-premises
methods and of any available programs for safe disposal of these
wastes. Are all hazardous materials properly stored to prevent
spills, fire hazard, and waste;
(4) Shop/Garage: in any shop or garage area, how are the wastes
associated with painting, stripping, automobiles, small engines, and
other projects treated. Is motor oil recycled. Is paint thinner
used as long as possible and disposed of as safely as possible. Is
the resident aware of ways to stretch the life of mechanical
equipment to prevent the need for early replacement. Is durable
equipment favored over single-use or poorly-built items;
(5) Household Goods: how does the resident deal with clothing,
furniture, and other items that are no longer needed and/or outgrown.
Are these items replaced before they must be. Is the resident aware
of the relative effects of synthetic and non-synthetic fibers. Are
things thrown out that can be recycled through rummage sales or
thrift shops. Is the resident aware of local agencies that could use
these things. Does the person need storage or pick-up service for
these items;
(6) Major Projects: is a major project underway or planned that might
include special trash-removal needs, such as remodeling or
landscaping. In what ways can the project be planned and undertaken
to minimize trash and hazardous waste production. What suggestions
might the garbage auditor offer to help the resident dispose of
whatever wastes cannot be recycled. What community resources exist
to help with future projects;
(7) Office: for any office area, what is done with paper that is
slightly damaged or only used on one side. Is it reused for notes,
100% Recycled Paper 99
children's coloring, or other projects. Can it be recycled. Can
recycled paper be used for letterhead, copy paper, computer paper, or ,
other printing needs. Is copying done using both sides of the paper
whenever possible. Are typewriter and computer printer ribbons
refilled, where possible;
(8) Plastics: how/how much does the resident use and dispose of
plastics, including sacks, styrofoam cups, and food and other
packaging. In which cases are there non-plastic alternatives, such
as paper sacks, cloth diapers, pop/beer can boxes, and glasses. In
•
which cases can plastic items be reused, such as sandwich and bread
bags. In which cases can bulk purchase lead to less packaging, such
as many food items. In which cases can the same or similar items be
purchased in recyclable or recycled containers, such as buying food
in glass jars, rather than in plastic jars. Is the resident aware of
the availability of biodegradable plastics;
(9) Cooking: are multi-use items preferred over single-use items,
such as cloth towels over paper towels, hardware over picnic
supplies, bulk popcorn and meals over single-serving units. When
eating out, is the resident aware of the advantages and disadvantages
of various kinds of food packaging, such as paper, styrofoam, and
cardboard. Are appliances purchased for specific functions when a
multi-function appliance would serve the same purpose, such as a
hamburger-maker for a frying pan;
(10) Hygiene: for cosmetics, deodorants, hair-care products, and
other personal items, is the resident aware of the effects of the
manufacture of various items on solid and/or hazardous wastes. Where
appropriate, information should be given on less toxic or less
wasteful alternatives. What size and type of container is purchased:
for example, large or small, plastic or glass, tube or pump, spray or
mist. How are residues disposed of. Are residents aware of the
higher costs, solid waste problems, and biological hazards associated
with disposable diapers.
As further research is done in the development phase of this project,
further items will undoubtedly be added to this preliminary outline.
Obviously, not all of these areas will be of concern in every
residence.

RE: Grading Permit at 16101 Pioneer Trail
Mr. Peter Jorgensen, owner of the property located at 16101 Pioneer
Trail, has requested City Council approval of an after-the-fact grading
permit for his property. Mr. Jorgensen has, over a period of 2-1/2 to 3
years, placed a significant amount of fill on his property in an attempt
to build up a level rear and side yard area. Drainage patterns have not
been adversely affected as a result of this grading.
Please refer to the attached plan, which was prepared by the owner, and
roughly show proposed finished contours.
Recommend that the City Council grant Mr. Jorgensen an after-the-fact
grading permit with the following provisions:
1. That no additional fill be placed on the property and the limits of
grading will not extend beyond what presently exists.
2. That Mr. Jorgensen shall immediately proceed with restoration of
the site which shall consist of finished grading of all eroded
areas and all slopes to a grade of 3:1 or flatter, placement of top
soil over all disturbed areas, and the boardcast of seed and mulch
over all disturbed areas.
3. Restoration must be complete by November 15, 1989.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
THRU: Carl Jullie, City Manager
FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation & Natural
Resources.
DATE: October 11, 1989
SUBJECT: Request from Eden Prairie Foxjets
Attached is the background information on the request from the
Foxjets for additional swim time, that would infringe on open
swimming. Also, attached is a copy of the unapproved minutes of
the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission including
their recommendation to allow the Foxjets to use three lanes at 25
yards for their 30 minutes of extended practice up until November
17th. This would leave the diving well and 5 lanes at 25 yards for
open swimming.
The open swimming period during this time has generally
accommodated approximately 30-35 people. In order to accommodate
the Girl's Swim Team and the ever expanding Foxjets Swim Club, as
well as the limited number of users of the open swim period during
this time of the day and time of the year, City staff concur with
the recommendation of the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources
Commission to allow the Foxjets Swim Club to use three lanes at 25
yards from 7:30 to 8 P. M. during the open swim for their extended
practice. This would only occur during the high school girl's swim
season when there is a conflict.
Consistent with past practices, whenever any group requests use of
the swimming pool or the ice arena during an open swim or open
skating period, staff requests authorization from the City Council
for this change. As we are not having to change the open swimming
period, but are merely restricting a portion of the pool for a
practice session, staff requests authorization to approve the
request of the Foxjets.

DATE: September 28, 1989
SUBJECT: Eden Prairie Foxjets Swim Club Request
Attached is a September 19, 1989 request from Bernie Weber,
President of the Eden Prairie Foxjet Swim Club, requesting the City
to consider expanding their rental period for an extra half hour
of pool time from 7:30-8:00 p.m., weekdays.
In 1981, prior to the Community Center opening, the City adopted
the following order of priority for use of ice and pool time:
a. City of Eden Prairie programs
b. Eden Prairie School District 272
c. Eden Prairie non-profit youth organizations
d. Eden Prairie non-profit adult organizations
e. Other Eden Prairie groups of special interest or profit
oriented groups
f. Other groups that are special interest or profit oriented,
or groups where less than 75% of the membership is from
Eden Prairie
Since the Community Center has opened, there have been several
local groups requesting additional pool or ice time beyond that
time designed for open swim or open skating. The City has been
consistent in denying reducing the amount of open swim or open
skating time.
Also, attached to this memo is a May 13, 1987 memo relating to Eden
Prairie High School's request for additional pool time. The City
Council granted an additional one-half hour of swim time to the
Eden Prairie Girl's High School swim Team, but took that time away
from the Foxjets Swim Club. At this point, the Foxjets Swim Club
has grown to over 120 swimmers and they are feeling the pinch for
additional pool time, and suggest the City add that one-half hour
back on the last half of their swim period, thereby cutting into
the open swim period.
The recreation staff and the Community Center staff indicate that
the 7:30-8:00 p.m. time is the busiest time during the open swim
evening session during weekdays, and do not recommend eliminating
/ that 30 minute period from the general public.

TO: Mayor and Eden Prairie City Council
Eden Prairie Park and Recreation Commission
THRU: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Servirr:;
FROM: Rick Bollnske, Superintendent of Recreation
DATE: Wednesday. May 13. 1987
SUBJECT: Eden Prairie High School's request for more pool time.
This will serve as a summary and staff recomendat.inn on the Eden Prairie High
School's request for an additional 1/2 hour of swim time for their girls high
school swim team.
Staff sees the options as follows:
1. Leave the swim times the way they are.
2. Take the 1/2 hour requested by E.P.H.S. from the Foxjets swim
program.
3. Take the 1/2 hour requested from the open swim time available to
families and individuals at the Community Center.
The problems with each of the options listed above are as follows:
Option 1-leaving the times as they are provides as problem for the
girls swim program. Their numbers are steadily growing. They com-
petition they now receive in the Lake Conference is much stiffer than
the conference they were in before. Staff at the high school and
Community Center feel they do need an additional 1/2 hr. to be
competitive with the rest of the Lake Conference. Numbers in the
high school program will continue to grow because of the fine feeder
program provided by the Foxjets.
Option 2. By taking 1/2 hour out of the Foxjets program, we would be
taking time from a program that is already bursting at the seams with
numbers of participants. The Foxjets swim program has over 125 indivi-
duals swimming at the Community Center. Most times, now, during practice,
there are as many as 10 children in each lane. Four-five years ago the
Foxjet program was mainly non-residents, but this has changed and now
over 857. of the participants are Eden Prairie residents. Staff have
received many requests from the Foxjets requesting more time.
Option 3- Takes time away from the general public and taxpayer of Eden
Prairie. This is a very difficult option to grant for the following
reasons.
1. The Community Center's main focus, when built, vms to provide
open swim time to the citizens of Eden Prairie. •
1
2. As stated above, not only does the high school wont additional
r time, but so do the Foxiets. The problem comes in as to where
do you draw the line.
3. 7:30-8:00 is the prime time for youth to swim at. the Community
Center. Most of our open swimmers at night come from 7:30-8;30
and the numbers drop off after that.. Average doily
attendance for the months of Sept and Oct is from 30-50 persons.
4. Staff has the concern that if open swim starts at 8:00 many
parents would be upset because of the lateness of the open swim
Children would be forced to swim from 8-9:00, go home and get to
bed by 9:30 on a school night. Staff doesn't feel this would he
acceptable to parents.
5. Staff is in the process of setting up a new membership for youth.
Our intention is to increase the number of youth who use the
Community Center on a regular basis. The youth membership is
inexpensive and is designed to make it attractive for the youth
of Eden Prairie to use the Community Center. Staff hopes to sell
well over 1,000 memberships to youth. Staff feels that changing
the open swim time even that 1/2 hour would affect their plans
for increasing the amount of youth who use the center regularly.
6. During the recent park bond referendum. we heard over and over
again how the general public wanted open public sessions
Ir protected. Staff feels it would he a mistake to change our open
public sessions time now.
There are no easy solutions to changing any of the times listed above. Staff
recommends the high school requesting an additional 1/2 hour from the Foxjet
program. The reasons are as follows.
1. On the priorities listing, the high school has priority over the
Foxjets.
2. Right now, the Foxjets have 3 hours of practice time and the high
school two hours. By giving the high school 1/2 hour of the Foxjet
time, both would have 2 1/2 hours apiece.
3. This 1/2 hour of time, taken from the Foxjet program, would only
be for the months of Sept., Oct.., and part of Nov. The Foxjet
program runs year round, and the staff at the Community Center
feels we could make up that 1/2 hour lost over that two months at
another time.
4. It is hoped that the Foxiets can adjust their schedule and move
to earlier times the days that the high school girls team has meets.
It is also hoped that we can work out morning swim time for both
the high school and the Foxjets.
ag90
Demands for additional time, by soups and individuals, will be increasing at-
1 the Community Center, as programs and the City of Eden Prairie continue to grow.
Presently, we are at capacity for ice rentals and swimming. Our weirtht room nod
racquetball courts are at capacity for the six winter months. Waiting lists are
developing in all skating and swimming programs. People are being turned down
in those program. This puts staff in a precarious position, similar to that
discussed above.

Dear Mr. Eastman:
I am writing in regards to the Foxjet Swim Club's request for an
extra half hour of pool time from 7:30-8:00 pm weekdays. As you
know the Foxjet Swim Club has grown steadily over the last two years.
Once again this fall we have experienced excellent new swimmer
registration and presently have over 120 swimmers.
During the summer we have a full three hours of pool time (4:30-
7:30 pm) and feel that we are able to run the five groups within
our program efficiently given that amount of time. The proposed
extra half hour would once again give us three hours and would
enable the club to move the oldest two groups back one half hour
and one hour respectively. This would allow us to work exclusively
with our most inexperienced swimmers and our newest members for
the first hour each day. We feel this is very important for the
continued growth and health of our club.
/ '
Tom, specifically what we are asking for is four lanes (meters)
from 7:30-8:00 pm-Monday through Friday. This schedule would be
in effect through Friday, November, 17th, which is the end of the
girls high school season, at which time we would return to our
4:30-7:30 schedule. The high school boys team under Tad's direction
will practice from 2:30-4:30 daily during the winter season.
' Thank you for your interest. We look forward to your reply.

A. Request from Eden Prairie Foxjets
Refer to memo dated September 28, 1989 from Bob Lambert,
Director of Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources
and letter dated September 19, 1989 from the Eden Prairie
Foxjet Swim Club.
Lambert said that a letter was received from the Foxjets
requesting extending their rental period for an extra
one-half hour from 7:30 to 8:00 p.m. The additional
time was taken away from them in 1987 when the Eden
Prairie Girl's High School Swim Team requested extra
time. At this time, the Foxjets have over 120 children
in their program.
Lambert reviewed the priority use of time as established
by the City Council. If additional time were given
to the Foxjets, this would take time away from open
swimming. Other than for one time events, the policy
on maintaining open swimming and open skating periods
has not been changed since the Center opened.
dd UNAPPROVED MINUTES
EDEN PRAIRIE PARKS, REC. & NATURAL RESOURCES COMM. Oct. 2, 1989

-- - -- Lambert said he understands the position of the Foxjets,
but he does not believe in cutting into open swim time.
The average number of people during open swimming is
32 per evening during the week. Giving extra time
for use of three lanes at 25 meters to the Fox jets
would take away the availability of the diving well
from swimmers.
Bernie Weber, President of the Foxjets, and Tad Hauck,
Head Coach, were present at the meeting.
Weber said that the club began with 30 swimmers two
- - years ago. At that time, they also incurred a $7000
debt for pool rental. Last year, the club placed second
at the state level and this year they have 53 new swimmers
over the 60 they had one year ago. Their debt is almost
clear and they are requesting an additional three lanes
only thru November 17.
Cook asked if most of the members of the club live
in Eden Prairie. Hauck estimated that 80 to 90% of
the members live in Eden Prairie.
Richard commented that he is impressed with the quality
of coaching for the club. He feels that it would be
necessary to close the diving board if the club were
swimming in front of it. However, he suggested using
an additional one or two lanes and swimming yards instead
of meters.
Lambert said he feels that this would make sense but
questioned how long it would take to change from meters.
Hauck said it takes about 7-8 minutes to change markers
so this would not be a problem.
Lambert added that if five lanes and the diving board
were available for open swimming, there should not
be a problem with keeping the open swimming period
in tack.
Hauck said that this arrangement would be acceptable
to the club.
MOTION: Richard moved to recommend allowing the Foxjets
Swim Club use of the three lanes closest to the seating
area from 7:30 to 8:00 p.m. weekdays until November
17, 1989. Joyer seconded the motion and it passed
4-0.

Dear Mr. Franzen:
This letter is to confirm our telephone conversation of Monday, October
2nd. As you recall we discussed a change or continuance from the City
Council agenda on October 17th, to Tuesday, November 7th. We will work
towards a more effective presentation to convince the council that the use
is appropriate and that there is a compelling reason to change the guide
plan. We will keep your department appraised of any changes we may elect
to make prior to the November 7th meeting. Thank you for your attention to
this matter.

Sandy Pointe 2 September 22, 1989
74,000 square feet. The average lot size is 30,265 square feet. All of the lots
meet the minimum requirements of the R1-22 Zoning District.
Outlot A, a remnant parcel containing approximately 315 square feet to the south of
the proposed Mitchell Road extension, should be combined with the adjacent property
at time of development. Outlot B, containing approximately 20,200 square feet is to
be placed under common ownership which would allow the homeowners within the Sandy
Pointe subdivision access to Red Rock Lake.
Access
Access to the subdivision will be provided by the future extension of Mitchell Road
to County Road Al along the south boundary of this property. A feasibility study is
currently underway for the construction of Mitchell Road. Because this subdivision
relies on access from Mitchell Road, 2nd Reading and final plat approval shall not
occur until the contract for Mitchell Road has been awarded. It is the City's
intention to begin construction in the spring of 1990. The extension of two cul-de-
sacs from Mitchell Road will service the actual project site.
With the review of the Red Rock Ranch proposal in 19B2 - 1934, numerous discussions
were held concerning the Corral Lane connection to Mitchell Road with ultimate
development. In a report dated January 6, 1983, Staff recommended that the
connection from this development (Red Rock Ranch) to Corral Lane could be made as
one of the alternatives illustrated (see Attachment A). Specifically, Staff
recommended that "the connection should be made in the future for the inter-
connection of neighborhoods and to provide two ways out of Corral Lane. The
connection should not be made in such a way as to encourage the short cutting of the
County Road #1 and County Road #4 intersection. The road connection shall not be
made until the extension of sewer into the Corral Lane area and reconstruction of
the roads has taken place." This recommendation was included in the the March 27,
1984 Developer's Agreement between Robert H. Mason, Inc. and the City of Eden
Prairie. The Eden Hills 1st Addition neighborhood remains extremely concerned about
the connection from Corral Lane to Mitchell Road and the possibility for short-
cutting traffic which Staff agrees may occur. In regards to this issue, there are
two alternatives for the Planning Commission to consider:
1. The Planning Commission may take into consideration neighborhood and
Staff concerns regarding the short-cutting of traffic and recommend
that Corral Lane end in a cul-de-sac on Lot 26, Eden Hills 1st
Addition. This would allow for a closed neighborhood, however would
result in Corral Lane ending in a 1,300 foot cul-de-sac while Cedar
Ridge Road would continue to be a 1,600 foot long cul-de-sac.
2. The second alternative for the Planning Commission to consider would
be to require the connection made as shown on the plans when Corral
Lane and Cedar Ridge Road are upgraded. The design for the
connection of Corral Lane would be one-way street with a median in
Sandy Pointe Road which would allow only a right in, right out from
that subdivision. This would deter the traffic from short-cutting
the neighborhood from Mitchell Road to County Road #4 but provide an
additional way out of the neighborhood for residents and emergency
vehicles.
3. The third alternative would be to leave Corral Lane as it is
currently platted and not provide a connection to Mitchell Road.
3U�S
< <
Sandy Pointe 3 September 22, 1989
The proponent is requesting that the existing Corral Lane within the property be
vacated and realigned as indicated on the plans. The current platted right-of-way
is approximately 30 feet from Red Rock Lake while the proposed Sandy Pointe Road
will ultimately be approximately 200 feet from the lake. The purpose of the road
realignment is to allow for the development of lots adjacent Red Rock Lake. With
the current Corral Lane right-of-way, five lots could be subdivided from Lot 27,
Block 2 which was originally platted with the Eden Hills 1st Addition for a total of
12 lots overall. The proposed realignment would allow for 13 lots.
Transition
The Eden Hills 1st Addition was platted in 1956 with lots ranging in size from
approximately 22,000 square feet to lots in excess of three acres. The average lot
size within the subdivision is approximately 44,400 square feet. However, 21 of the
29 lots are less than 1 acre in size. The average of the lots which are less than 1
acre in size is approximately 32,650 square feet which is comparable to the average
lot size proposed within Sandy Pointe. Lots directly abutting the proposed
subdivision range in size from approximately one acre to a lot exceeding three
acres. The densities of the two projects are comparable at approximately one unit
per acre.
To provide a transition between existing single family neighborhoods and infill
developments, the Planning Commission and City Council have considered making
abutting lots the same size or matching lot lines. Historically, this has not been
done in this area as indicated by the Red Rock Lake 1st Addition platted directly to
the north. The abutting lots within this subdivision are 26,400 square feet in
size. Although the abutting lots within Sandy Pointe meet the minimum requirements
of the R1-22 Zoning District, the Planning Commission must decide whether these lots
are compatible with the overall development in this area or whether additional
transition is needed. If this development is not compatible, the Planning
Commission may consider a reduction in lots to allow for an increase in lot sizes
adjacent Eden Hills 1st Addition.
Grading
Elevations on this site range from a low point of approximately 839 adjacent Red
Rock Lake to a high point of 874 along the west property line. Maximum cut and fill
amounts on the project range from approximately 16 feet of fill at the intersection
of Mitchell Road and Sandy Pointe Road to approximately 8 feet of cut to the rear of
Lots 1 and 2, Block 1. The entire site is proposed to be graded to allow for
building pads with the exception of the 100 foot shoreland setback.
The tree inventory indicates a total of 564 caliper inches of significant trees on
this site. Based upon the building pad for Lot 10, Block 2, 94 caliper inches of
significant trees will be removed. A tree replacement plan for 21 caliper inches
must be submitted prior to Council review.
Utilities
Utilities are available to this site through connections made to the Red Rock
8 interceptor which is located on the property. Sanitary sewer will be extended to
Corral Lane with this development. Water service will be provided through
connections made to a future water line which will be placed in Mitchell Road.
?v))f 0
Sandy Pointe 4 September 22, 1989
Storm water run-off is proposed to be collected within a catch basin system and a
storm water detention pond located on the south and east side of Mitchell Road and
discharged into Red Rock Lake. Detailed storm water run-off, utility plans, and
erosion control plans will be required for review by the City Engineer and the
Watershed District.
Shoreland Ordinance
Because this property is adjacent to Red Rock Lake, which is classified as a
Recreational Development water, the following requirements exist:
1. Minimum lot size - 20,000 square feet.
2. Minimum width at the building line is 120 feet.
3. Minimum width at the Drdinary High Water Mark is 120 feet.
4. Minimum building setback from the Drdinary High Water Mark is 10D
feet.
All of the lots meet the minimum requirements of the Shoreland Ordinance.
In locations where homes abut significant natural sight features such as lakes,
Staff has recommended that building pads be 70 feet in depth. Due to the shoreland
setbacks, the road location, and the location of the sanitary sewer, the building
pads on Lots 7-10, Block 2 are not 70 feet in depth. The building pads on these
lots measure from 45 - 55 feet in depth and have widths ranging from 65 - 140 feet.
Building footprints range from 3,2D0 square feet to approximately 6,000 square feet.
The proponent has submitted a series of building plans which indicate that homes
ranging in value up to $300,000.00 can be constructed on these lots within the
proposed building pads. The Planning Commission may consider the location of Sandy
Pointe Road, the location of the sanitary sewer and the width of the lots as reasons
to allow building pads less than 70 feet in depth.
Pedestrian Systems
Plans indicate an 8 foot bituminous trail to be constructed along the north side of
Mitchell Road. To provide access to the trail system, the developer shall install a
5 foot concrete sidewalk along the east side of Sandy Pointe Road.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
If the Planning Commission feels that the site plan as proposed is not compatible
with the adjacent neighborhood and that additional transition is needed, Staff would
recommend the elimination of one lot along the west side of Sandy Pointe Road to
allow for increased lot sizes. With this revision, Staff recommends approval of the
request for a Zoning District Change from Rural to R1-22 on 6.0 acres and
Preliminary Plat of 11.2 acres into 13 single family lots, 2 outlots, and road
right-of-way based upon plans dated August 11, 1989, subject to recommendations of
the Staff Report dated September 22, 1989, and subject to the following conditions:
1. Prior to Council review, proponent shall:
A. Revise the plans to reflect a 5 foot concrete sidewalk along the
east side of Sandy Point Road.
2,011
Sandy Pointe 5 September 22, 1989
B. Revise the plans to either reflect the elimination of the connection
from Corral Lane to Sandy Pointe Road or to reflect the design of
Corral Lane as a one-way street with a median in Sandy Pointe Road.
C. Submit a tree replacement plan for 21 caliper inches.
D. Revise the plans to depict the elimination of one lot along the west
side of Sandy Pointe Road.
2. Prior to Final Plat approval, proponent shall:
A. Provide detailed storm water run-off and erosion control plans for
review by the Watershed District.
B. Provide detailed storm water run-off, utility, and erosion control
plans for review by the Watershed District.
3. Prior to grading permit issuance, proponent shall:
A. Notify the City and Watershed District at least 48 hours in advance
of grading.
B. Stake the construction limits with erosion control fencing.
4. Prior to building permit issuance, proponent shall:
A. Pay the appropriate Cash Park Fee.
B. Submit detailed building plans for Lots 7 - 10, Block 2 which
indicate compliance with the Shoreland setbacks. The proponent
shall agree not to request variances on any lot abutting Red Rock
Lake.
5. Second Reading and Final Plat approval shall not occur until the contract
for Mitchell Road has been awarded.

C. ,SAN_DY..POiN3 , by Sandy Pointe Partnership. Request Eor
Zoning District Change from Rural to R1-22 on 6.0 acres,
Preliminary Plat of 11.2 acres into 13 single family lots,
two outlota, and road right-of-say. Location: East end
west of Corral Lane, south of Red Rock Lake.
Bob Smith, representing the proponent, stated that Lot 27
on the west side of Corral Lane was presently zoned R1-72
and the parcel to the east of Corral Lane was zoned Rural.
Lot 28 was a recreational lot for the Eden Hills
subdivision. Lot 27 was exempt from the covenants of the
Eden Hills subdivision. The proponent had investigated
three possible road alignments; 1) leaving Corral Lane in
its present location to allow the development of 6 lots on
the west side, 1 lot on the peninsula, and 6 lots on a
cul-de-sac, 2) Corral Lane would he moved to the western
border of the property allowing the development of 7
lakeshore lots, or 3) the connection between Corral Lane
and Mitchell Road as per the Staff recommendation. The
project was design for 13 lots at 1.1 units per acre. The
lot sizes and widths would ue equivalent to that of the
Eden Hills development. Two of the lakeshore lots would
not meet the 70-foot building pad sees, the plan proposed
50-foot pads. Trees would not be removed alone the
Lakeshore; however, some trees in the southern portion of
the parcel would he removed.
Samlat.ad asked Smith if the two loto on the west :isle of
the road waul..l have any recreational space due to the
steep grade for the rear yards. Smith replied that
would he an opportunity far retaining walls and terracing
Planning commission Minutes I September 25, 1989
to be used on these lots. Sand .t•ad then irked if the
slope would be 3-to-1. Smith replied yes and added that
there was a swail which discharged he water around the
site.
•
Franzen reported that transition to the existing Eden •
Hills subdivision was a key issue. Staff recommended the
proponent reduce the project by l lot by combining lots 1
and 2. The plans should be revic.•d 1e -liminate the
connection Eros Corral Lane to .^..;cnIy Point Road or design
Corral Lane as a one-way street with a median at Sandy
Pointe Road. Final Plat approval and 2nd Reading should
not occur until the contract for Mitchell Lake has been
awarded.
Anderson asked if Staff was concerned about the 50-foot
building pads along the laF:eshore. Franzen believed that
based on the dimensions of the two rots the proponent
would probably construct a longer and narrower home on
these sites. Anderson then asked if decks could be built
on the lots. Franzen replied that the print only showed a
possible footprint; however, decia ,would a . 1,e allc.wed
because of the easement on the lots. Anderson asked if
any sidewalk or trail system was proposed. Smith replied
that a sidewalk was proposed along the east side of Corral
Lane and 8-foot bituminous trail along Mitchell Road.
Ed Martin, 15810 Cedar Ridge Road, President of the Eden
Hills Homeowners' Association, stated that th- neighbors
were not opposed to the development of the neighborhood;
however, they would request the rejection of the plan as
proposed. Martin believed the density of the project was
too high and questioned if the plan as designed was •
compatible with the adjacent lots. Lots 1, 2, and 2 were
barely 22,000 square feet and abutted lots which were over
one acre. The position of lots 1 and 2 would require an
8-foot cut in grade, which would create a hardship for the
lots in the Eden Hills subdivision. The alignment of •
Corral Lane should remain as platted currently. Corral
Lane currently acts as a natural barrier for the lake.
Martin believed that Eden Prairie needed more green space •
and proposed that only 2-to-3 homes be developed in Lot
27. The neighbors would prefer that access to the new
development be from Mitchell Road and that the cual-de-sac
remain closed. Martin believed that opening the cul-de-
sac wools encourage short-cuts fro,.,, Mit. hell Ruc; to
County Road R9.
:flan Jarman, 15710 Corral 7,ane, .tzt?d that the
reel hborhood of Eden Hill:; was a quite neighborhood and
believed that the new development would increase the
traffic. Jarman was concerned for the safety of the
children in the neighborhood with the traffic increase.
Jarman did not believe that .a directional island would
' 0106
Plaening Coemieeiou Mieutes September 75, 1959
help decrease the traffic.
Mikes ?unck, 15702 Cedar Ridge Read, stated that he lived
•adj,+ceut to Lot 27 and conenrred with the recommendation
by Martin to limit the level._ tn.-nt to onli .-te-- homes
on Lot 27. Junck was concerned that his Lakeview would be
taken away.
Floyd Hagen, 15002 Cedar Ridge Rowel, stated that the
recreational are•., was protected by covenants and had
always been considered as part of the neighborhood. Hagen
was concerned about the density of the project and the
impact of -to-3 story homes in these locations. Hagen
was also concerned about the increase in traffic. Hagen
questioned how the use of the beach area could continue to
be restricted. Hagen was concerned that the Homeowners'
Association members would now be cutoff from easy access
to the recreational lot.
David Newman, 6959 Tartan Lane, believed that this project
would impact his property, even though the development was
not adjacent to his property. Newman questioned the
impact a zoning change would have on the need for
additional City services, the impact on property taxes,
the Impact on the current inventory of existing horn ,,, and
the affect on current sales and pricing of existing homes
in the area. Newman believed that this item should he
tabled until answers to these questions could be obtained.
Virginia Gartner, 15701 Cedar Ridge Road, stated that Lot
27 Ws—. .actually flat and sloped to the lake. Gartner
believed that the plans which showed a steep elope en Lite
two lots to the west of Corral Lane were deceptive.
Gartner believed that the density of the project was too
high.
Smith believed that the lot values and home values would
provide a transition. The value of the homes would be
approximately $300,000. Smith stated that the beach would
remain a private beach. Smith noted that Lot 27 was
currently zoned for R1-22 development. The two lots to
the west of Corral Lane could have retaining walls built
as the area above this was the flat area referred to by
Mrs. Gartner.
0andet.ad stated that he would not be in favor of the cul-
de-sac without a connection between Corral Drive and
Mitchell Road.
Martin et.at.d that the neighberr were willing to dr ee
around to County Road 01 to gain access to the
recreational area and preferred the cleeed cul-de-sac.
Hallett stated that he believed that the project was too

Planning Commission Minutes 6 "elet.embe=r 25, 1111
crowded; however, he 'lid not :ei ieve that only 2 or . lots
was reasonable. Hallett believed that the proponent
should he more sensitive to the concerns of the existing
neighbors.
Bye stated that the road as proposed by the proponent •
would act as a transition.
Anderson stated that the neighbors seemed to be more
concerned about the visual impact of the project, rather
than transition.
Hallett did not believe that legitimate reasons fur denial
of the project had been presented. Hallett asked if the
lots on the west side of Corral Lane could be kept at the
present R1-22 zoning. Franzen replied yes.
Sandsted believed that if the plan was reduced by 1 lot as
recommended it would be more acceptable.
Bye aeke-a what help could be given to protect the view of
the existing homes. Franzen replied that if the covenant
restricted the development of only 1-story homes it would
be the responsibility of the property owner to enforce the
covenant. Smith replied that the existing homes were 60
feet higher than the proposed homes and that a 2-story
home would be approximately 20 Eeet in height, which
should not restrict the view of the lake. Junck stated
that he was concerned about the view being blocked by the
proposed location of the corner home on the peninsula.
Martin stated that he would like to readdress some of the
issues raised tonight with the Association members.
Smith noted that the layout as proposed met all
ordinances.
Anderson stated that he would like to see continued
cooperation between the neighborhood and the proponent to
work out a reasonable solution. Smith stated that two
neighborhood meetings had already been conducted. Smith
further recommended that the proposal be considered as
presented with the removal of 1 lot.
Bye stated that she would like to have Public Safety
review the road alignment issues. Smith stated that
Public Safety had referred the matter back to Planning
staff.
Martin. 'stated that the r:,e?ight,orhood wanted to live with
the 12.00 foot cul-de-sac and did nut under:;t•-and the need
to change this.
Jim Zaechran, the developer, stated that he did not want. to

make the connection to K:'.,t.,_1'_ .,d and had proposed the

expense of snaking the connection to Mitchell Road would
need to be offset by the cunritrt:c:t:ien of higher priced
homes on thy-• .its•. Zachman added that !he• was in agreement
with the neighborhood that the connection to 11.. .'_ 11 ti—zl

Sand,ted believed that the proposal should be developed as •
planned with the elimination of 1 lot .as recommended by
Staff. Sands tad believed that: the connection should he
made to Mitchell Road.
Zachman stated that the road alignment had been discussed
in depth. To make the connection to Mitchell Road it
would require the development of $300,000 home_ to cover
Hutt costs of the connection. Zachman stated that he
wanted to have the right to develop the property without
disturbing the existing neighborhood.
Bye stated that she could support the cul-de-sac proposal
with a walkway. Franzen recommended the consideration of
the cul-de-sac with knock-down barriers. Bye believed
that the character of the existing neighborhood should be
protected.

RE: Sandy Point Deeeinpment Proposal
Dear Mr. Eager and eembers of the Planniee Commiselee:
I am writing personally to outline some runcerns about the
development as p; epoeed in hope that they may a :a._„( in reaching an
equitable and apernimiete plan. The followiee items are in no
significant order, but ore of SOMQ concern. be order is not
significant.
1. DENSITY The ever age let size of this neighbrehood is 1.11 acres,
or 44 400 square feet. Staff notes that S of the 29 lots, or 27.5%
of them exceed one erre - while and the other "ril% still average .81
acres at 72 650 sruere feet. The develuper propoee en average of 70
265 feet, or. .76 ecru lots. However, a% over 20% of Edon mills
largest lots are remeved to make the comparison, 20% of the proposed
lots should be eliminated which would indicate ':hose proposed to be
significantly smaler then those of Eden Hills. Thi5 is particularly
true of those lo's% immediately adjoining the prreosed development so
a reasonable transition is desirable.
2. EDEN ..HILLS 'TXREATTONAL. OUTLET Please notc that as a per of
Eden Hills, anti part of the plat which includes the corral, all Eden
Hills homeowrers on the specified lots have access to the
association's reereational lot and beach. These rights should be
protected in any development.
3. ALIGNMENT 07 CORRAL LANE As this was part of the plat uf this
neighborhood, end so was understood as the development potential on which reliance wee made by property owners, its:,ould not be altered.
4. ACCESS III the staff report we note the reference to the concern over cul-de-sau outlincd in item 1. Please note that the discussed
approach does eot result in the cul-de-see, for this situation hi',existed for over 70 years on the accepted and registered plat upon
which the neighborhood was developed. Please note also that Public Safety in the east has noted that our seighborhood association
coupled with oee limited access has been m important factor in minimieing proble,ms of hurglary, vandalieen ond other issues which
could be ire:) eeeed by more reedy and frequent Cre 'i of other roade.
We believe the proven benefits of this ovee 10 year old situation
•
should not b eopardized by such development.

In addition, I . litive that the protilems of tr . lit: cutting through
i- to avoid the in:. ..isingly congestod intersect: in of Eden Prairie
14, Road and Pioneer r. ail plus that. which can be ex, cted to arise from
Mitchell and Pioo.,or Trail poses a safety hazer . ,..:i the residential I.
community as We as needlessly increasing not -.: ,ill pollutinn with
no benefit to this neighborhood-community. 1
.,
5. CONFORMING ElirLDING TYPES In our develcpment, because of
aesthetic consider itions, homes on the outer peri.iieter were generally
limed to single level homes. It would seem appropriate that some
height restrictioes apply to the proposed howcs 'hat by excessive
heights a non-i ..ositional development could snfairly undermine
property values.
6. LAKESHORE PRE7ERVATION In the staff report i.,:, rote their concern
over the project', inability to conform with It desired 70 depth
for building fonlorint because of the development outline. It would
appear that this largely results from the density being sought, i.e.
a lower density mis,ot unable conforming developmenC.
I believe this is a preliminary hearing, but oish to record these
concerns that tho :,est and most appropriate devnlonment will enhance
and not be detrim9ntal to our City and this neighborhood. Thank you
for' considering th,m in your' deliberations.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
THRU: Robert A. Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and
Natural Resources
FROM: Barbara Penning Cross, Park Planner
DATE: September 29, 1989
SUBJECT: Supplemental Staff Report to the September 22, 1989
Planning Staff Report on Sandy Pointe
The Planning Commission approved this 11.2 site, located on the
southwest shore of Red Rock Lake with several recommended changes
after listening to neighborhood input.
1. In order to create a better transition Lots 1 & 2, Block 1
should be combined to form just one lot.
2. There was much neighborhood opposition to the connection of
Corral Lane to Sandy Pointe Road and eventually out to Mitchell
Road. In lieu of this input, the Planning Commission
recommended that Corral Lane end in a cul-de-sac on Lot 26 of
the Eden Hills development.
Specific issues the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources
Commission should address are:
SHORELAND MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE:
Red Rock Lake is classified as a recreation development lake and
restrictions are set for lot width, lot size and setbacks. All of
the lots within this subdivision meet the minimum requirements of
the Shoreland Ordinance.
GRADING AND TREE PRESERVATION:
The site is generally sloped toward the lake and with the exception
of a 100' shoreline setback, the entire site will be graded. Five
hundred and sixty four caliper inches of trees exist on the site.
Ninety four caliper inches of trees will be removed, which is a
16.5% tree loss. A tree replacement plan, meeting the tree
preservation guidelines, will be submitted for Council review.
PEDESTRIAN SYSTEMS:
An 8' bituminous trail will be constructed along the north and west
side of the Mitchell Road extension. The pedestrian systems in the
area will be affected if Corral Lane ends in a cul-de-sac, or if
it is connected Sandy Pointe Drive with a through street. The
Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Department staff has the
following recommendations concerning the pedestrian system:
t (7
1. A 5' concrete sidewalk should be installed along the west side
of Sandy Pointe Road. This will provide residents access to
Outlot A, which will be the lake access owned by the Home-
owner's Association. This sidewalk will also connect to the
trail system along Mitchell Road providing easy access to the
neighborhood park as well as other areas within the City.
2. If this plan is approved with a through street, staff
recommends a 5' concrete sidewalk be installed on the south
side of Corral Lane when it is improved in the future.
3. If this plan is approved with a cul-de-sac, an 8' bituminous
trail should be installed through the platted right-of-way to
allow pedestrians and bicycle connections between the
neighborhoods.
The Eden Hills Homeowner's Association owns a small park and a 20'
strip of land adjoining the lake. Outlot A of this project
directly adjoins Eden Hills park and will also be owned by the
neighbor-hood association. The intent is to provide lakeside
recreation to the residents within the project. As far as staff
knows, relations between these Homeowner's Association's are
friendly and facilities can be shared. Questions do arise if this
arrangement should ever change in the future. The pedestrian
connections mentioned in this report are the only way for Eden
Hills residents to have access to their park and it is the only way
Sandy Pointe residents can get to County Road 4 without going all
the way along Mitchell Road to County Road 1 and then out to County
Road 4.
Staff recommends approval based on the Planning Staff Report and
this supplemental report.

V. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS
A. Sandy Pointe
Refer to memo dated September 29, 1989 from Barb Cross,
Landscape Architect and staff report dated September
22, 1989.
Bob Smith of Krueger a Associates was present at the
meeting to review the proposal. Smith introduced Jim
Zachman of Sandy Pointe Partnership.
The site is located south of Red Rock Lake, east and
west of Corral Lane. The proposed development is for
13 lots on 11.2 acres. Several neighbors have expressed
concern about the development. They feel that Corral
Lane should end in a cul-de-sac and the developer is
reducing the number of lots by one because of their
concern for a better transition. City staff has suggested
a sidewalk on the west side of Sandy Pointe and a trail
connecting to Corral Lane. 21 caliper inches of trees
will be replaced.
Cross reported that all lots meet the shoreland management
ordinance. Total tree loss is 16.5% and they will
replaced per the tree replacement ordinance. A sidewalk
will be constructed on the west side of Sandy Pointe
Road and staff is also recommending a trail connection
in the right-of-way to reach the outlot and proceed
to Co. Rd. 4. She said it is her understanding that
the two developments will share a common association.
Smith added that the two developments in this area
will be independent associations.
Zachman commented that at the present time, the residents
have use of the entire beach and, hopefully, this will
continue.
Cross added that the original homeowner's association
had proposed that the City purchase the parkland and
Lakeshore all the way to the City park in Boulder Pointe.
Richard asked why the City wasn't interested. Lambert
said it would have been too expensive to acquire this
land.

Cook asked if an easement will be necessary on the
south end of Sandy Pointe for an asphalt trail. Cross
said that it is currently platted as a right-of-way
so this will not be a problem.
Lambert indicated that the connection to Corral Lane
should be a 5' sidewalk rather than 8' asphalt.
Cook asked if anything needs to be included in the
recommendation about the two homeowners associations.
Cross said the City has no control whatsoever over
this.
MOTION: Cook moved to recommend approval of Sandy Pointe
per staff recommendation. Richard seconded the motion
and it passed 4-0.
B. Tech 10
Refer to memo dated September 29, 1989 from Barb Cross,
Landscape Architect and staff report dated September
8, 1989.
Bob Smith of Krueger & Associates reviewed the proposed
development. The site is located west of Golden Triangle
Drive north of 74th St. The developer is proposing
a 74,000 sq. ft. office/warehouse on 5.6 acres. The
entire west side of the site will remain in its natural
state. 22% of the existing trees will be removed and
the developer will replace 268 caliper inches in Tech
10 and 545 caliper inches in Tech 9. There is an 8'
bituminous trail along the entire length of Golden
Triangle Drive.
Cross said that the grading on this site will be quite
severe as indicated with the 70' grade change because
of a hill. At one point on the site, there will be
a 50' cut and 10' of fill. Cross added that she shows
a 41.5% tree loss.
Smith said that his numbers were calculated using not
only Tech 9 and 10, but with the entire site considered
as one development. He added that the eastern portion
of Golden Triangle Drive was originally a gravel pit.
Cross said that the developer has done all that is
possible to preserve trees. The Planning Commission
has approved this development. She added that there
is an opening along the existing trail.

Andersons. Until the street is constructed, a driveway would be constructed wi thin
the proposed outlot to provide access to the parcel. This would be stipulated upon
an agreement whereby the owner accepts all responsibility for maintenance of the
driveway.
Outlots A and B on the preliminary plat are proposed to be sold and combined with
adjoining lots of adjacent subdivisions.
Sight Vision Distance
Sight vision distance is acceptable for the southern 3 driveways, meeting the
minimum criteria for viewing distance to the north and south on Bennett Place. The
sight vision distance to the south on Lot 1 is acceptable; however, the sight vision
distance to the north does not meet the criteria and the driveway should be located
on the southern side of the property to meet the 260-foot minimum distance required.
Utilities
Sewer and water service is available to this site by connection to existing
facilities within Bennett Place.
Storm Drainage
The existing site drains through the eastern portion of the property through the
Blossom Ridge Addition to a storm sewer pipe which discharges into a large basin
approximately 500 feet to the east of the property. Drainage and utility easements
are proposed across 3 of the lots such that no structures or grading would interfere
with the natural direction of the drainage.
Road Construction
When the property to the south of this site develops, a public road will be required
to be constructed where shown on the preliminary plat. Proposed Lot 4 will benefit
from the construction of this roadway and must enter into a special assessment
agreement to cover a proportionate share of the cost of utilities, storm drainage,
and road construction in the future. The location of this roadway will allow for
the southern parcel to develop with lots meeting the requirements of the R1-13.5
zoning district. The development plan shows that the existing Anderson house would
meet the required 30-foot frontyard setback off the cul-de-sac. Preliminary grades
have been developed along the centerline of the proposed roadway which indicate that
the road can be constructed which meets City requirements.
In order to accommodate the proposed road grades, it will be necessary for a 28-foot
wide construction easement across proposed Lot 3. The attached plan for the
development of the roadway proposes 3/1 slopes. This construction easement should
be written to the City and recorded on the deed for the lot.
Grading
The use of walkouts on proposed Lots 2 and 3 minimizes the amount of fill necessary
in order to accommodate the house pads on proposed Lots 1 and 2. This helps
q preserve the majority of the natural drainage way to the rear of the houses. There
will be up to 12 feet of fill necessary between the road right-of-way and the front
elevation of the houses in order to accommodate the proposed driveways.

Tree Loss
The grading plan indicates that a total of 123 out of 359 existing significant
trees, or 34%, would be lost due to construction. Tree replacement would be 56
inches. Prior to review by the City Council. The proponent shall submit a tree
replacement plan for 56 caliper inches to be spread across each of the lots. Prior
to grading permit issuance, it will be required that the proposed construction
limits around the trees be staked with a snow fence so that the trees can be
protected during construction. Erosion control will also be necessary to limit the
amount of sedimentation which would filter into the natural drainage way.
Sidewalks and Trails
There is an existing 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk on the west side of Bennett
Place. No additional trails or sidewalks are planned in the area.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
The Planning Staff would recommend approval of the request for rezoning from R1-22
to R1-13.5 and a preliminary plat of 1.77 acres into 4 lots and 3 outlots, based on
plans dated September 13, 1989, subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report
dated September 22, 1989, and subject to the following recommendations:
1. Prior to City Council review, proponent shall:
A. Revise the site plan to relocate the driveway to the south side of
proposed Lot 1. This would provide for better sight vision distance

RE: Grading Permit Request on Dutlot C Menards Addition
Rome Development Company, on behalf of Menard, Inc., has requested City
Council approval of a request of a grading permit to allow the placement
of fill on 0utlot C of Menards Addition located at the northwest corner
of Valley View Road and Topview Road. The request consists of the
placement of approximately 6,500 cubic yards of excess soil generated
from the proposed expansion of the A to Z Rental site located at the
southeast corner of Valley View Road and Plaza Drive. The fill will be
placed over an area of D.94 acres within Dutlot C. Please refer to the
attached plan.
Recommend approval of Rome Development's request for a grading permit
with the following provisions:
1. Applicant must secure a temporary entrance permit from Hennepin
County for Valley View Road.
2. Applicant must protect the existing sidewalk and replace any
cracked or damaged sections that result from this work.
3. The scope of the grading permit will cover the placement of excess
fill from the A to Z Rental only and shall not exceed 6,500 cubic
yards.
4. Applicant will verify with a representative of the City that the
proposed grading will not result in removal of or damage to any
significant trees as defined in the Eden Prairie Tree Protection
Policy.
5. Applicant shall provide the City with an overall grading plan for
the remainder of Dutlot C, keeping ultimate development in mind.

RE: NSP Proposal For Undergrounding Utilities
Over the past year, Staff has been working with NSP to identify a way in
which overhead utilities can be placed underground -- especially when they
are in the process of reconstructing a pole line system. During our
discussions with NSP, we have determined that the way in which they deal with
us concerning underground installations appears to be consistent with other
suburban communities.
Currently, if we are proceeding with a construction or reconstruction
project, NSP will bury the overhead utilities, but the City of Eden Prairie
must pay the cost less a credit consisting of their estimated cost to build a
new overhead system in another location. The result is often times a
substantial cost and we have more often than not declined the process.
As a means of compromise, NSP has researched three possible means of
generating
the
revenue to
Iost wrotertonCarlrounding Jullie onerhead Augustut8,it1989
summarizes those three possibilities. After reading, you will note that unit
pricing is the only method that they would consider acceptable. Based on
their estimates, if $1.50 were to be added to a residential customer each
month and a sliding scale amount added to each commercial customer, the
resulting revenue would be over $300,000.00. By increasing that unit price
by a nominal amount, the result can generate over $500,000.00. Exhibit B of
the attachment shows the two illustrations mentioned above. While it may
seem that a commercial customer paying $25.00 or $50.00 per month is high,
the smallest billing a commercial using 100 kilowatts of electricity would
receive is in the $2,000.00 to $3,000.00 range. You should also know that
existing customers in Eden Prairie that have underground service are
currently paying a surcharge of $1.50 per month for that purpose. These
proposed costs would be in addition to the current payments being made.
I will be available at the Council Meeting to discuss this information in
more detail. If the Council chooses to proceed, the next step would be to
ask NSP to prepare a draft agreement and obtain more specific details
regarding the program.

RE: NSP FEES FOR GENERATING REVENUE
TO UNDERGROUND UTILITIES
On August 8, 1989 I met with Stu Fraser to discuss information NSP had
prepared regarding a means to generate a source of income to allow for
undergrounding of utilities. NSP identified three possibilities as follows:
1. Franchise Fee: In this situation, we would enter into a franchise
agreement with NSP and the provisions of that agreement would allow for
a percentage rate to be applied to their customers up to 5%. Attached
Exhibit A shows that a 1% franchise fee would generate $242,000.00 while
5% would be over $1.2 million dollars. According to Frazer,
implementing such a fee schedule would require a public hearing process
and they would adamantly oppose it. Their primary reason is that the
billing to their customers would be such that it would resemble a rate
increase for which they would be responsible. Additionally, they feel
that the treatment to the customers on a percentage basis would be
unfair.
2. Surcharge: This method is almost identical to the franchise fee, except
that a franchise would not be a part of the process. NSP has the same
strong feelings against using this method as well. .
3. Unit Pricing: Exhibit B shows two alternatives illustrating the use of
unit pricing. If a revenue generating mechanism is to be established,
NSP favors this over the other two alternatives. As shown on the
exhibit, NSP has identified four customer classifications and using two
different models, show that an income between $300,000.OD to $500,000.00
per year could be attained. The price per month for a residential
customer is not significant, but some might feel the $25.00 per month
for a commercial customer might be oppressive. However. Fraser tells me
that the smallest monthly bill a 100kW customer would receive would be
two or three thousand dollars.
NSP would expect that Minnesota Valley Electric would be required to
follow this same kind of pricing structure if we choose to follow it.
They would also expect that some consideration be given to AT&T,
Northwestern Bell and Cable Television.
August 8, 1989

t
This unit price would show up on the billing for each customer as a
separate line item. NSP would be receptive to negotiating what that
language says so that it doesn't put either them or the City in a
negative position.
New Brighton was very close to adopting a system like this. They
actually had an ordinance in draft form and an agreement ready to be
signed when the City decided to pull out of the project. They struggled
with the problem of who paid for the homeowner cost to bury underground
services ($200.00 to $500.00 plus restoration). Another problem they
faced was with an older housing stock, many homes did not meet current
code requirements for their electric service. An underground service
installation would require that the property owners bring their
electrical system up to code at an additional cost of as much as a
$1,000.00 or more.
Fraser also pointed out that the vast majority of our residential
customers are currently paying $2.00 per month for underground service
already. He wondered what their reaction might be to an additional
$2.00 more or less.
If we choose to pursue this matter, NSP would be willing to develop some
type of long-range capital improvements budget so that it could be tied
to the unit pricing structure (15-20 year range).
NSP would charge us some sort of fee to implement such a system and that
would come from the first year's revenue. They estimated as much as
$60,000.00 to change their billings mechanism. They also indicated that
they would like to impose some sort of cap on the amount of money that
could be accumulated in this dedicated fund (say $5-10 million dollars).
When that cap is reached, the system would automatically stop collecting
until the amount was drawn down.
Finally, Fraser told me that they are not interested in being a banker
for undergrounding our system. If we had a major project that we wanted
to do, we would have to accumulate the money or borrow the money and pay
it back with this source of revenue in order for them to proceed with
the work.
Fraser was quick to point out that they didn't want to do any of these
mechanisms, but of the three alternatives, they strongly favored the unit
pricing procedure. The first step is for the City Staff to review this
proposal and if we desire, they would be willing to develop the information
further and put it in writing.

FINAL REPORT
OF THE
LAWFUL GAMBLING STUDY COMMITTEE
CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA
AUGUST 1989
Executive Summary:
In April 1989, the Eden Prairie City Council appointed the Lawful Gambling
Study Committee to explore whether and to what extent lawful gambling
activities should be allowed within Eden Prairie. Since their first meeting on
May 4, 1989, Committee members have examined a variety of issues associated
with lawful gambling activities. Information and comments from several
resource persons, residents at a public meeting, staff research, and personal
experience have contributed to the Committee recommendations.
By a 4 - 2 majority, the Committee members recommend that no lawfulAactivities
requiring a State License be allowed within Eden Prairie. The reasons for this
conclusion will be discussed more fully later. If the City Council were to
decide that some forms of lawful gambling should be permitted, Committee
members have suggested guidelines under which licenses should be approved.
* * * * *
Types of Lawful Gambling: The State of Minnesota allows five lawful gambling
activities. These activities include bingo, pulltabs, raffles, tipboards, and
paddlewheels. Fraternal, religious, veterans, or non-profit organizations
which qualify for tax-exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the U.S. Internal
Revenue Code are the only groups which may conduct lawful gambling.
State statutes and administrative rules provide a system to ensure that games
are run fairly and gambling revenues are used appropriately.
Lawful gambling is a big business in Minnesota. Residents spend an estimated
$1 billion on gambling per year. The activities which generate the most
revenue are pulltabs and bingo.
Licenses Required: The State of Minnesota has established three types of
licenses which may be issued for one year to charitable organizations. Class A
licenses allow an organization to conduct all five lawful gambling activities.
Class B licenses allow each gambling activity except bingo. A Class C license
permits an organization to conduct only bingo. A variety of exemptions exist
for several types of one-time or infrequent gambling occasions as specified in
Chapter 349 of Minnesota Statutes. For these exempted activities,
organizations must receive a certificate from the State and notify the
municipality at least 30 days before the event.
The State of Minnesota issues a license or certificate after conducting a
background investigation of the applicant to determine the fitness of the
organization and the applicability of any additional local regulations. In
addition to meeting the test for being an eligible type of organization, the
applicant must have been in existence at least three years and have at least 15
active members.
- 2 -
Local Regulation: According to M.S. 349.213, subd. 1, "a statutory...city...
has the authority to adopt more stringent regulation of any form of lawful
gambling...,including the prohibition of any form of lawful gambling, and may
require a permit for the conduct of gambling except from licensing." In a
recent opinion in response to questions from the City of Cloquet, the Minnesota
Attorney General emphasized that local regulations may apply only to the form
of gambling -- i.e., the types of games and how they are conducted -- and not
to the organizations which may conduct gambling activities. Further, a city
may only specify how up to ten percent of net profits must be spent; an
organization has discretion for use of the remaining ninety percent.
One further local power to limit gambling exists in this section of the
statute. An organization must notify a city when it makes an application for
a State license. Within 60 days, a city council may adopt a resolution to deny
the license application. Without disapproval during this time, the license
request is considered to have local approval.
* * * * *
Study Process: Committee members consulted a variety of resources in order to
make recommendations within the legal framework summarized above. Several
persons presented information and opinions to the Committee:
Chuck Anderson, Minnesota Department of Revenue, Charitable Gambling Division
Lt. Les Bridger, Eden Prairie Police Department
Bill Nelson, Wayzata Lions Club
Don Storm, Minnesota State Senator, District 42
Duaine Denman, Eden Prairie American Legion Post #409
At a public meeting held June 15, 1989, persons spoke on behalf of the
following groups:
Academy for Artistic Gymnastics Booster Club
Eden Prairie American Legion Post 409
Eden Prairie American Legion Post 409 Auxiliary
Eden Prairie Lions Club
Eden Prairie Ministerial Association
Speak Again - Tracheotomies and Laryngectomies
Private residents (two)
Committee members also shared several articles and legal opinions. From this
broad range of information presented verbally and on paper, Committee members
considered the benefits and drawbacks of lawful gambling activity.
* * * * *
Recommendation Not to Allow Lawful Gambling: A majority of Committee members
recommend that the City Council adopt an ordinance which would not allow within
Eden Prairie the issuance of Class A, B, and C licenses as described in
Minnesota statutes. Lawful gambling activities which are allowed with
exemption certificates from the State should be allowed within the City.
The drawbacks to lawful gambling outweigh the benefits from the proceeds of
these activities. The issues involved are both practical and philosophical.
- 3 -
Fundraising: Lawful gambling is an effective fundraising activity. As
trends in government spending show a reduced scope of responsibility for social
services, charitable organizations have been identified as ones which can fill
a vacuum. They can use proceeds from a variety of sources to address existing
and emerging community needs.
A substantial part of the gross revenues from gambling are returned to
players as winnings. The remaining funds must go toward administrative
expenses, taxes, and charitable giving. During the 1989 session of the
Legislature, new laws were adopted for taxation of lawful gambling. The effect
of these new laws is to reduce the amount of net proceeds for charitable
purposes to 4.5 to 5.0 percent of gross revenue. The effort required by
organizations to gain this revenue is tremendous compared to the profit they
receive.
Revenues from lawful gambling are variable over time. Organizations
conducting lawful gambling and recipients of their charity may become
dependent on gambling receipts for their on-going operations. Shortfalls will
cause problems. Experience in other states with such lawful gambling
opportunities as pulltabs, lotteries, and pari-mutuel betting suggests that
gambling is an entertainment fad. After a few years revenues begin to drop
as the novelty for gambling wears off. With the coming of a lottery in
Minnesota, an activity with larger prizes than the other forms of lawful
gambling allowed by Statute, it is possible that the money residents may spend
in lawful gambling could decrease further.
Traditional fundraising efforts, those which reward commitments of time and
energy, result in greater overall public service. Gambling as a fundraising
activity appeals more to people who enjoy gambling than to those persons who
wish to give for particular causes. It is a convenient way to raise funds, but
the motives among the participants are not necessarily charitable.
Patronage uestions: It is a common perception that persons who participate in
lawful gam ling activities are ones with low to moderate amounts of
discretionary income. Eden Prairie residents, most of whom are in the middle
to upper end of the socio-economic scale, are not in a group likely to
patronize these gambling operations. Many of the players of these games would
not be residents of Eden Prairie, but rather people who come into Eden Prairie
for entertainment and recreation. The number of players, and consequently
the amount of revenue, from gambling activity is likely to be less than
proponents have estimated.
How Fairly are the Games Operated?: According to a representative of the
Minnesota Department of Revenue, a number of practices exist which go against
the legal operations of gambling as described in statutes and administrative
rules. Pulltab sellers may alert friends that a sizable pot remains with just
a few pulltabs remaining. Sellers may not record the serial numbers of each
pulltab game played, thus underreporting the amounts to be taxed and to be
contributed to charities. These are examples of cheating the players because
their chances for a fair shot at the winnings is compromised. Additionally,
persons who play these games with the belief that their losses will go to
charities may see their gifts go to less than reputable operators.
Evidence of illegal operations is mounting. The Minnesota Legislature has
not demonstrated its commitment to provide adequate staff and financial
resources for proper policing and regulation of lawful gambling. By allowing
lawful gambling in Eden Prairie, the City would be providing more
opportunities for improper operations and fraudulent use of revenues.
•
- 4 -
Any Organization Can Oo It: The recent Minnesota Attorney General's opinion
states that cities cannot specify the types of organizations which can
operate lawful gambling. The City Council may not, for example, restrict
licenses only to those organizations based within Eden Prairie, nor may it
specify how to use more than ten percent of the net proceeds. A potential
exists for most of the profits to be used outside of the City.
It has been suggested that if Eden Prairie were not to allow these
activities, its island-like status would result in having these additional
charitable proceeds being given in some other community. While this
argument has merit, it is not necessarily true. As Minnetonka and Edina
do not allow lawful gambling, Eden Prairie would be part of a larger,
contiguous island. Nothing exists in statutes or administatives rules to
assure that any more than ten percent of net proceeds would remain
within the City, and Committee members have pointed out that the amount and
reliability of proceeds is questionable. Charitable contributions are
already made to the Eden Prairie community by a number of dedicated civic
organizations. The absence of lawful gambling does not mean that civic giving
would cease.
Costs: In addition to the drawbacks mentioned thus far, lawful gambling
entails a variety of other costs. Some are tangible and incurred now; others,
less tangible and paid in the future. Monitoring gambling activities will
require dedication of staff time from the Police Department. Revenues from
the City tax allowed by statute probably would not cover the City's costs for
administration and enforcement. Establishments with gambling activities,
and particularly bingo halls, can produce sizable amounts of traffic to the
community's already congested road system. Social costs may be difficult to
measure, but they are real. Less money for family needs can result in a broad
range of problems requiring immediate family intervention. Gambling can be
an addictive activity which affects the family, employers, and society at
large. Not only are there disruptions at home and the workplace which spill
over and affect more persons than the gambler alone, but costs are borne by
the public for treatment of this condition. While disallowing gambling in
Eden Prairie will not remove other opportunities to gamble, in a small way the
City could reduce the costs resulting from gambling.
Other Remarks: The Committee's recommendation not to allow lawful gambling
is grounded in practical and philosophical considerations. To allow lawful
gambling would be for the City Council to endorse a value of opportunism
and luck for the rest of the community. To do so would invite the
undesirable aspects of gambling into the hospitality and entertainment
establishments patronized by Eden Prairie residents. In making this
recommendation, the Committee is not making any value judgment about the
respect the community holds for any organization, nor is it casting
any doubt about an organization's competence to conduct lawful gambling
operations. Simply, a majority of the Committee does not favor continuous
lawful gambling activities.
* * * * *
Guidelines if Lawful Gambling is Permitted: The Eden Prairie City Council has
already approves a number of CTss A and Class C licenses for activities at the
Eden Prairie American Legion Post No. 409. Inasmuch as lawful gambling existed
prior to the Committee's deliberations and it appears likely that this level of
activity would be accepted by the community in the future, the Committee has
developed guidelines when considering new license applications and renewals.
- 5 -
Several good reasons exist to allow lawful gambling. It provides charitable
organizations with an opportunity to obtain more money to give to a variety of
worthwhile activities. These groups may provide a number of services which are
no longer funded by government activities. For a number of people, lawful
gambling is a form of entertainment; indeed, a night of playing bingo on the
average costs as much as a night's entertainment at a movie theater, sports
event, or restaurant. One could consider it worthwhile to have an activity
which results in charitable contributions from persons who might otherwise have
no inclination to make them.
A number of comments have been made that governments should interfere as
little as possible with the morality and choices of their citizens; limiting
lawful gambling is an inappropriate governmental intrusion. People can show
their sentiments against gambling by not participating in the games and not
accepting gifts made possible by gambling profits. Minnesotans have indicated
their desire to gamble by approving a constitutional amendment to allow
a lottery. The Legislature has spoken for the Minnesota community by
permitting lawful gambling subject to a comprehensive set of statutory and
administrative controls. Residents should have a wide range of choices in
their activities and how they wish to raise funds.
The following are the proposed guidelines:
1. Use of proceeds: The City shall specify that at least ten percent
of net proceeds he used for human services needs within the City
of Eden Prairie. These proceeds should be directed to PROP unless
PROP is unwilling or unable to use these funds. In the event that
PROP does not receive the funds, the City Council should have the
use of these funds overseen by the Eden Prairie Human Services
Coordinating Council. The City Council should state its strong
preference that any proceeds from gambling activities be used to
address human services needs (and not for such things as park
acquisition or public safety equipment).
2. Organizations: Lawful gambling licensees must be legally chartered
non-profit organizations certified by the State of Minnesota, having
written constitutions stating the purposes for their existence,
having been in existence in Eden Prairie for at least three years
with at least 15 members who hold their regular business meetings
within the City. (Realizing that this guideline may conflict with the
recent Attorney General's opinion referenced earlier, the Committee urges
the City Attorney to review the law and encourages that a way be found
to implement this recommendation.)
3. Records: Licensees approved by the City must make available to
the City all records the organization must send to the State. The
City would have all rights to review records without prior notice
or search warrants. Further, organizations would be required to
send to the City on a monthly basis copies of bank statements and
cancelled checks, as well as to provide records of all units of
gambling purchased, sold, and remaining. These requirements would
provide the City with another level of investigation to ensure
that gambling operations were being conducted properly.
. - 6 -
4. City Tax: A City tax of 1.0 percent of gross receipts should be
levied on activities conducted under a Class A, B, or C license.
While State Statute allows a 3.0 percent City levy, it should be
noted that the State now receives a 6.0 percent tax on gross receipts.
A 9.0 percent tax by State and City would reduce the amount of
proceeds available to charitable gambling so significantly that
organizations would be discouraged to conduct lawful gambling. It
is more important to have proceeds going to charitable uses than
the City's general fund.
5. Locations: Committee members strongly believe that the number of
locations where gambling would be allowed should be very limited. A
reasonable standard to consider is one location per 10,000 residents.
Because Eden Prairie's population is so close to 40,000, four locations
could be permitted at this time. Additional criteria related to eligible
locations include:
a) In locations which have restaurant service, gambling
activities must not be permitted in the dining, lobby, or
cashier areas of the establishment. In on-sale liquor
establishments, activities would be allowed only in the
bar area. Gambling activities should not be allowed in what
could be characterized as "family places", or areas of
establishments where families would be present.
b) An organization receiving a lawful gambling license should
be allowed to conduct gambling activities at only one
location within Eden Prairie.
c) Only one license should be permitted to operate at a location.
Locations at which multiple-licensees were permitted to
operate prior to August 15, 1989 should be exempt from this
limitation.
When developing an ordinance to regulate lawful gambling, the ordinance
adopted by the City of Minneapolis should be used as a model for
technical provisions relating to permitted locations.
6. Bingo Hall Operations: All bingo halls should be allowed to conduct
bingo activities no more than four days during the week. Committee
members do not believe that the community wished to be associated
with a seven-days-per-week bingo hall. Because most of the players
probably would not reside in Eden Prairie, those persons arriving in cars
and buses at the bingo hall would add significantly to traffic volumes
on an already strained local and regional roadway system. If a bingo
hall is successful, the traffic activity it generates could be
incompatible with residential or neighboring land uses.
7. No Paddlewheel Games: Paddlewheel games (similar to a "Wheel of
Fortune" wheel) are not often played in Minnesota. They are also
games in which a relatively high level of cheating is done by game
operators. Consequently, no paddlewheel games should be allowed
under Class A and Class B licenses.

Committee members thank the City Council for this opportunity to serve the
community. We have worked diligently with many hours of spirited discussion.
We were not unanimous with many of our recommendations. They represent
majority or consensus viewpoints. Because Committee members represent a
wide set of perspectives, we have been able to suggest workable and
satisfactory methods to regulate lawful gambling in Eden Prairie.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: City Manager Carl J. Jullie
SUBJECT: Capital Improvement Projects
DATE: August 4, 1989
The attached table shows a listing of our needs for major facilities for
the next several years. These are based upon the capital improvement
planning we have been doing since the City Needs Study Committee •
recommendations in 1985.
As a basic conclusion, it appears feasible to anticipate that we could
accomplish these needs through a combination of funding procedures which
would result in an increased property tax of about $5.00 per month in
today's dollars for the typical $120,000 valued homestead. Long-term
financing (by a referendum or other vehicles) would be needed for City
Hall, Miller Park, Community Center ice bubble, and fire needs. Shorter
term borrowing and annual budget appropriations could be used for the other
projects.
My most recent discussions with Or. McCoy indicate that the School District
will be scheduling a levy referendum in November of this year to asic for a
2 1/2% levy increase for operations. This would amount to $55 per year or
about $5.00 per month for the typical $120,000 homestead. This would begin
in 1990.
As we know, it is difficult these days to make any projection on property
tax impacts because changes in tax policy are probably forthcoming from the
State Legislature. I understand that Governor Perpich will be proposing a
maximum tax rate much lower than the current 3.3% for homes over $100,000
in value. This would be beneficial to Eden Prairie taxpayers and will help
with the sale of referendums. It does appear that we could do a referendum
for parks next year and for City Hall in 1991.
Please call if you have questions about this data. We will be prepared for
more discussion on Tuesday evening at our joint meeting with the School
Board.

FINAL REPORT
RESIDENTS ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON CITY ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICES
NOVEMBER 1987
Since October 1987, a group of 24 residents of Eden Prairie has studied ways to
address the community's need for a future City Hall. What was anticipated to be
a four-month process evolved into something lasting a year. The added time
allowed more thoughtful discussion among Committee members after gaining the
benefits of professional services from a survey research firm, an architect, and
a property appraiser. Recommendations of the Committee provide the City Council
with sound alternatives to accomplish the construction of the new City Hall.
Charge to the Committee: Throughout the study, Committee members adhered to the
City Council's charge:
"The Eden Prairie City Council seeks an independent, informed recommendation
from the community about the best way to address the City's need for permanent
administrative offices. It is appointing a 24-member blue-ribbon committee to
investigate this matter. The committee will be free and is encouraged to
explore a wide array of solutions; however, it will not contemplate any options
which entail leasing office space. In considering sites for new City offices,
the committee shall have no restrictions on the location of a site it will
recommend. The committee will recommend whether the building should be built in
phases or initially constructed to its eventual size. It will identify
appropriate costs for construction of the building. Finally, the committee will
recommend whether this construction should be financed with bonds authorized by
referendum or within legal restraints if a referendum is not held.
"In its desire to have the committee operate independently, the Council will not
have its members nor its staff participate in the committee's activities. The
City Manager shall, however, assign one member of his staff to perform liaison
duties for the committee. If the committee determines that it needs additional
resources which may involve expenses, it may request that the Council authorize
payment for these services."
The Committee has been responsive to the Council's direction. Major
recommendations appear in the Executive Summary. The remainder of the report
explains the process and findings of the study.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Eden Prairie is a substantial organization. It has revenues of $25
million annually, fixed assets in excess of $80 million, and nearly 200
permanent staff positions. The revenue and staff figures put Eden Prairie in
the same league as such high-tech companies as Research, Inc. in Eden Prairie
and Zycad Corporation of Arden Hills. Eden Prairie as a corporation will
continue to grow, and its corporate headquarters - City Hall - needs to be
planned with that larger size in mind. It is a decision which could well last
longer than 50 years.
Major Conclusions:
A two-story City Hall with 37,000 to 41,000 square feet of space should be
constructed for occupancy in March 1993. It should be designed such that it
blends reasonably well with surrounding buildings and environmental conditions.
The design, while not ostentatious, should reflect the public nature of the
- 2 -
building. While it appears that expansion of the building will not be
necessary, the design should allow for future expansion should the need arise.
Costs for the building, its mechanical support and interior finishes, should be
approximately $70 per square foot in 1986 dollars.
City Hall should be located on five to eight acres of land. The Committee has
identified four sites which should be considered for City Hall. Costs for the
land should be in the $3.00 per square foot range. The Council should secure
the land as quickly as possible, and should consider outright purchase using
monies in the General Fund reserve.
Total costs for City Hall, including the building, site work, land cost, and
contingency, should fall in the range of $4.65 to $5.35 million. To finance the
project, the Council should establish a Building Fund. This fund should be
built up by levying the equivalent of 0.6 mills through 1997. From 1993 to
1997, the Council should continue the levy for rent of leased space at 7600
Executive Drive.
The method of financing recommended does not require that a referendum be held
for authority to issue long-term general obligation bonds. Committee members
prefer to pre-fund construction costs. The probability of a successful
referendum vote is tenuous. The City's need for a City Hall is great, and the
project should be accomplished with a view to overall fiscal prudence.
PROCESS
In October 1986 the City Council appointed four persons to serve on the
executive committee: Rich Anderson, Gene Haberman, Marty Jessen, and Jean
Myers. They solicited 12 members to the Committee and recommended eight persons
who had written the Council regarding their wish to participte. The 24 members
of the committee were:
Executive Committee
Rich Anderson Jean Myers
Gene Haberman Marty Jessen
Committee Membership
Rod Anderson Mike Gust
Tom Bierman John Hartsough
Ann Boline Fred Hoisington
David Bowers Steve Hoyt
Pat Breitenstein Jerry LaBarre
Ken Brooks Jim Ostenson
Betty Craig Jim Rannow
Dennis Dirlam Paul Redpath
Harlan Fritz Lyle Shaw
Merle Gamn Dave Spaulding
Two members of the Committee later excused themselves from further
participation. Gene Haberman accepted a position out-of-state and Betty Craig
found her schedule very busy. Most meetings of the full Committee averaged 14
to 18 in attendance.
The broad scope of the Committee's work quickly became apparent. In order to
manage the work, subcommittees were established. Subcommittee charges and
- 3 -
reporting dates were designed and sequenced to build upon each other's studies.
In this manner, the work progressed logically, with each new piece using the
consensus which had been building among the full Committee. Each member of the
Committee served on a subcommittee, and each subcommittee had at least one
member of the executive committee.
The subcommittees were:
1. Inventory of Other City Halls: This subcommittee conducted a survey of
selected suburbs to determine why various communities designed and
located their City Halls the way they did. They also found what types of
services were offered, and how much building space had been built to
provide them.
2. Other Governmental Services: This subcommittee investigated the
possibility (and probability) of locating additional services (e.g.,
Hennepin County, U.S. Postal Service) with a new City Hall.
3. Survey: This subcommittee was charged with conducting a survey of
residents to determine what they expected of a City Hall building. And
what concerns they had when they voted (or did not vote) at the
referendum.
4. Program for the City Hall: This group used the results of the previous
three suFamnittees' work to write a description of the program (services
and facilities) for the City Hall. It studied the efficiency, arrange-
ment, and public use of the space.
5. Site Selection/Building Design: Using the program statement, this group
identified and evaluated potential sites, and developed a concept plan
for the site.
6. Finance and Implementation: This subcommittee explored funding
a e natives for the new City Hall. It also addressed such implementation
issues as the use of referendum, timing for funding programs, and timing
of property acquisition and building occupancy.
Each subcommittee submitted a draft report to the full Committee for additional
comment. All final reports were approved by the full Committee. These reports
appear in the following chapters.

To: Residents Advisory Committee on City Administrative
Offices
From: Inventory of Other City Halls Sub-Committee
Date: January 14, 1987
This committee was charged with conducting a selective
inventory of what other cities have built as city halls
and why. Accordingly, we selected several suburbs that
we felt were comparable with Eden Prairie in terms of maturity
or communities that were more established from which we •
might learn. The following communities were selected:
Maple Grove Eagan
Minnetonka Bloomington
St. Louis Park Edina
Brooklyn Center Coon Rapids
Woodbury Plymouth
While it is difficult to form definite conclusions from
our research, we were able to acknowledge the following
facts.
Population verses size of City Hall: Population of the
Communities surveyed ranged from 16,000 to 80,000. The
majority of the communities were between 31,000 to 45,000.
While the size of the City Hall structure was not always
able to be identified, they generally ranged from 15,000
to 40,000 square feet and contained approximately 100 employees.
City Services Located Within the City Hall: The majority
of City Halls contain all administrative offices and eight
of the communities also had their police department within
the City Hall building. Several of the communities had
their fire department administrative offices located inside.
Repeatedly, it was mentioned that it is important to have
as many functions under one roof as possible. The people
interviewed felt that it was important for the different
departments to have convenient access to each other (i.e., •
the fire department working with the building department).
City Services Contained Outside City Hall: The two services
most frequently located outside were a fire department
and public works.
Location of City Hall: The majority of the City Halls
were located within the geographic center of the community.
Those that were not, were located near the business district
or on a main street.
Page two
Other Services in the City Hall: None of the communities
interviewed had other services, outside of city services,
located within their City Hall building. Several of the
communities had libraries near by, a police station next
door or future hopes for an adjacent post office.
Recommended Changes or Improvements: The need for better
space utilization seemed to be a common complaint. Too
often the City Halls were built too small or did not allow
for an easy flow of communication between various departments.
The need for storage was usually under estimated and the
potential need for expansion was not addressed.

Discussion among Subcommittee and Committee members concluded that
housing as many of the City's services as possible under one roof was
desirable. Other services which the City may consider adding would be
a deputy registrar (vehicle licensing) and a contract postal station.
While the Subcommittee started with the concept of combining all of
the services described into one community service office, the idea of
a public service center is not feasible because the U.S. Postal
Service will build an Eden Prairie office within a few years and the
County has no plans for service centers in addition to those at the
Government Center, Brookdale, Ridgedale, and Southdale. Planning for
a City Hall building and site should be focused just on the needs of
the City organization.

The Executive Committee believed it was ty's
sentiments and expectations of a City H that
a survey would be a valuable tool in gz �a l \ j
components of the survey were to be: 1 'ices;
and 3) the image of the building as net ice
facility. The focus was to be more for Jpport
for a new City Hall, rather than to be
wrong on the referendum.
City Council granted a request for funds to retain the services .._t
survey/research firm to conduct the survey. Subcommittee members chose TK
Associates of Minneapolis, Inc. for the work. During January 1987, 300
residents of Eden Prairie were contacted through a random telephone survey, 150
of whom were known to have voted on the referendum. The sample yielded a 95
percent confidence level for the results.
Based on the data and analysis provided by the firm, the subcommittee and
committee drew the following conclusions:
1. There is a need for a new City Hall.
2. At this time, residents are not frequent users of City Hall but they
are satisfied with the quality of service received when they have used
it.
3. Perhaps because of their infrequent usage, residents are not overly
concerned with the location of City Hall.
4. Residents do not perceive a strong need to add services by other
governmental agencies and clearly do not see a need for au auditorium
as a possible addition to City Hall.
5. Residents felt strongly that a new City Hall need not be highly visible
and distinct but should blend in with the surroundings.
6. A majority of residents feel that city government will change and grow
in the future through the addition of staff to provide services to meet
general and specific needs, as well as the overall growth of staff to
accommodate existing services. Therefore, building design should be
flexible and expandable.
J. Residents expect a thorough cost-benefit analysis to be performed on all
perspective locations and building plans. A bias exists toward locations
already owned by the City.
8. Residents perceive that the last referendum was poorly planned and
marketed.
A copy of the full report, including an interesting compilation of respnses to
open-ended questions, is stored in the City Manager's Office. The executive
summary of the consultant's report appears on the next two pages.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY'
. A total of 300 telephone interviews were conducted with
adult residents of the City of Eden Prairie: 150 with a
systematic random sample of residents who voted in the May
6, 1986 referendum and 150 with a random sample of the
general population.
. Two-thirds of the respondents have lived in Eden Prairie for
over five years; eight in ten live in single family homes;
and, over nine in ten own their homes.
• Just over half of the respondents were female; almost two-
thirds are aged 31 to 50; and 95% reported that they are
registered to vote.
• Over ninety percent of the respondents have been to Eden
Prairie City Hall at some time, and almost all of these
residents reported that they were very or somewhat satisfied
with the service they received on their last visit.
. The most frequently reported reasons for going to City Hall
included attending Council meetings, obtaining dog
licenses/tags, and obtaining building or other permits.
. Over three-fourths of the residents who have been to City
Hall or who know where it is located feel that the location
is fine where it is.
. Six in ten of the respondents thought that the City Hall
should blend well with surrounding buildings, while a
quarter thought is should be highly visible and distinct
looking.
. When read a list of services and asked which were important
for City Hall to offer, the most frequently mentioned
services were those dealing with the use of land in the
community.
. While just over half of the respondents thought that it was
important for City Hall to offer car licensing services,
close to seven in ten mentioned that they would make use of
such a service if it were available.
. Almost half of those residents who thought it was important
for City Hall to offer land use planning and building
construction safety services did not think that they,
themselves, would use the service.
. Just over a tenth of the respondents feel a government
services center is very necessary in Eden Prairie, and just
over half feel it is somewhat necessary.
1111 . Two-thirds of the respondents do not feel it is at all
necessary for City Hall to include an auditorium and public
meeting space.
i
I
• Just over six in ten of the respondents expect the role of
city government in Eden Prairie to change over the next five
to ten years.
Of the 189 residents who anticipate chnnges in the role of
city government, many mentioned that the change would
involve the need for increased services and related
personnel.
• Over two-thirds of the residents in the study indicated that
they had voted in the May 6, 1986 referendum on City Hall.
This ranged from 43% in the general population sample to 93%
in the sample drawn from known voters.
. Among those residents who indicated that they voted in the
referendum, cost, the necessity of a new building, and
location were the three issues most frequently mentioned as
having influenced their vote.
• Among those residents who indicated that they did not vote
in the referendum, being uninformed or uninterested, out of
town, or too busy were the most frequently mentioned reasons
for not voting.

who had been the project manager for the City Hall ror the March 1986
referendum, provided the expertise the Subcommittee requested. While
Subcommittee members at first believed some general relationships existed
between employees or population and building square footage, further study
proved that no standard existed. Accordingly, the Subcommittee analyzed
staffing projections, public space expectations, and building use from a
"bottom-up" approach. Its conclusions suggested ranges of expected sizes and
functions.
The Subcommittee's final report appears on the next two pages. To further
summarize its recommendations:
A multi-level building of 37,000 to 41,000 square feet should be constructed
all at one time. Interior and exterior architecture should convey
functionality, efficiency, and good utility of space while being warm and
inviting. It should blend reasonably well with surrounding buildings and
environmental conditions, while reflecting the public nature of the
building. City Hall should have a geographically central location on a site
preferably eight acres minimum in size (five acres absolute minimum). The •
cost for the building -- in terms of building shell, building equipment, and
interior finishes - should be around $70/square foot (1986 dollars).
REPORT OF THE PROGRAM SUBCOMMITTEE
RESIDENTS ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON CITY ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICES
FOR THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE, MN
Throughout February and March 1987, the Program Subcommittee has explored
what should be key elements for Eden Prairie's City Hall. During the
review process, the Subcommittee used the professional advice of the
architect for the earlier City Hall proposal, a substantial amount of
information gathered by the staff liaison, and the results of the resident
survey to guide members to recommendations. These recommendations are
presented to the full Residents Advisory Committee on City Administrative
offices for comment and adoption.
A building "program" is a broad concept for defining what a building ought
to be. It can contain both specific and general elements as well as
identify structural particulars and architectural themes. For ease and
clarity, the Subcommittee narrowed its focus to the parameters to be
discussed below. Many recommendations are general in nature because
neither a design nor a site for the building now exist.
Services To Be Offered: The types of services provided at City Hall should
be similar to those which presently exist. Granted, the services offered
may evolve in ways which are not now predictable; however, the structure in
the administrative offices should not need much change to handle future
demands. Having other governmental or private agencies housed in the City
offices appears neither necessary nor desired.
Staff Size: Assuming that projections made for the development of the
community are accurate and in order to maintain at least the current level
of service quality, the building should be designed to house 105 to 115
employees. This number of staff members will probably be reached in about
five to ten years. This staffing requirement is comparable with cities of
similar size, and one at which administrative staffing should stabilize.
Staff size after additions in 1987 will number 70.
Public Areas: The image one gains upon entering the building should be of
functionality, efficiency, and good utility of space. It should be warm
and inviting. Easy orientation and easily identified access to other
levels will enhance everyone's use of the building. Because providing
space for Council and Commission meetings is an important function of a
city hall, there should be ample space and a number of meeting and
conference rooms with built-in flexibility. A feeling of spaciousness is
not critical; however, it should be considered if the building design will
result in little additional cost.
The City Hall should include a multi-purpose entrance area, seating for 150
persons in the Council Room, and other public meeting areas. Multiple use
of as many spaces as possible - for both public and staff areas - should be
encouraged.
Building Size: In order to accommodate the types and levels of services,
the amount of staff positions to provide those services, and the public
areas needed for the public use and image of the building, City Hall should
be between 37,000 and 41,000 square feet in size.
- 2 -
City Halls are public buildings and require more space than "a typical
office building" because of the need for public meeting areas (e.g. City
Council and Commission rooms), the presence of several relatively
autonomous departments, and greater storage needs due to the historical
nature of public records. A range of 37,000 to 41,000 square feet is
recommended. This office space is consistent with cities of similar size
which the Subcommittee has studied.
To minimize future cost, the full 37,000 to 41,000 square feet should be
constructed all at one time.
The exact size of the building will depend on the building design which, in
turn, will depend on soil and topographic characteristics of a site. The
building should be multi-level, with the number of levels dictated by these
characteristics. If a basement level is feasible, it should be used only
as non-public space. Multiple use of space should be sought as much as
possible.
Exterior Building Image: The architecture of City Hall should convey the
qualities already identified for the public areas of the building. The
future City Hall should be designed such that it blends reasonably well
with surrounding buldings and environmental conditions. The design, while
not ostentatious, should reflect the public nature of the building. While
design is somewhat site-dependent, the look of the city halls of such
cities as Plymouth and Eagan should be the design goal. The building
should be multi-level (because this design is more cost-effective) as
dictated by the topography of the site. While it appears that expansion of
the building will not be necessary, the design should allow for future
expansion should the need arise.
Cost: After review of construction costs of five other city halls,
buildings in the metropolitan area, and buildings in Eden Prairie, the
Subcommittee concluded that costs for the building, its mechanical support
and interior interior finishes, should be approximately $70 per square foot
in 1986 dollars. Costs not included in this figure are such things as
parking lots, landscaping, communications equipment, furniture, and land
and site preparation.
Size and Location: The size of the land on which the City Hall will be
located should have a minimum of eight acres. This size will allow
flexibility in the design and configuration of the building on the site
while providing some open space on the City Hall grounds. Eight acres will
also allow possible building expansion and space for parking areas
(estimated to be 200 spaces) in accordance with development standards in
the Ordinance Code.
City Hall should have a geographically central location.
Summary: The new City Hall should be well-designed and impart the public
nature of the building with effective use of space. The building should
not be ostentatious. It should blend well with surrounding buildings and
environmental conditions. It should be designed to house 105 to 115 •
employees who will provide the services generally found at other city halls
in metropolitan-area suburbs. It should have sufficient public meeting
areas within the building. To accommodate the needs identified by the
Subcommittee, the City Hall should be between 37,000 and 41,000 square feet
in size and allow for future expansion should that unlikely need arise.
The cost for the building - in terms of the building shell, building
equipment, and interior finishes - should be approximately $70 per square
foot (in 1986 dollars). A centrally-located site with a minimum size of
eight acres will be needed.

CHAPTER V
SITE SELECTION/BUILDING DE
Chair: Rich Anderson
Members: Merle Gamm, Fred Hoisington, Steve Hoy
Jerry LaBarre, Jim Ostenson, Dave Spau
This group focused its efforts on identifying sites
recommendations of the program subcommittee. Using
services approved by Council, Setter, Leach & Linds
analysis, while Krueger Appraisals, Inc. gathered i
basis regarding anticipated and appropriate costs f
Committee members identified a number of sites which could be considered and
later reduced the number to eight. Criteria for weighting and scoring the sites
were established by the full committee. These criteria and weights are listed
below:
Cost of Land 29%
Building Efficiency 17%
Location/Accessibility 14%
Site Now Owned by City 11%
Relationship to Other Uses 11%
Site Size 9%
Sites scored highest if they were less than a "benchmark" site (a "pure" 5 acres
@ $3.OD/s.f., or $653,000), accommodated a two-story building, were within 1/4-
mile of geographical population center, had excellent access and visibility,
were owned by the City, were totally compatible/consistent with surrounding
existing and future land uses and Guide Plan, and between five and eight acres
in size.
The Subcommittee's recommendation was for the City to negotiate the purchase of
three privately-owned parcels:
*Site 8, ADC property, northeast corner of Anderson Lakes Parkway and
Mitchell Road;
*Site 7, Carmody property, north of Anderson Lakes Parkway along Purgatory
Creek;
*Site 10, Equitable property, southeast curve of Equitable Drive south of
Valley View Road;
and to have Site 2, the old City Hall site, be a fall-back site in the event
that an acceptable price were not negotiated for any of the three sites.
Further, consideration should be given to purchase of the five acres immediately
south of the old City Hall so that the present building and its use can be
maintained if this site were ultimately selected.
Costs for the privately-owned sites could be expected to range between $550,000
and $1,600,000 depending how (and if) the parcels could be subdivided.
CHAPTER VI E-14)M—
FINANCE AND IMPLEMENT
Chair: Marty Jessen
Members: Ann Boline, Ken Brooks, John Hartsc
This Subcommittee discussed ways in which reconm
subcommittees could be put into action. Its rer
pages. In summary, recommendations for financir
Hall plan are to:
*Secure land as quickly as practical and cor
outright purchase;
*Make decision to build by February 1991 so that building may be occupied
March 1, 1993;
*Establish a Building Fund with an annual levy approximating 0.6 mill
through 1997, and continue the levy for rent in 1992 through 1997;
*If a Building Fund is not established, gain approval through referendum for
issuance of general obligation bonds, which has lowest long-term cost; and
*If referendum is also not chosen, look at other long-term financing
techniques.
The full Committee endorsed these recommendations, with the exception of one
member who dissented because the issue would not be placed in front of residents
on a referendum as had been done previously.
TO: FULL COMMITTEE
FROM: FINANCE AND IMPLEMENTATION SUBCOMMITTEE
SUBJECT: SUBCOMMITTEE REPORT
DATE: SEPTEMBER 14, 1987
The Subcommittee makes the following recommendation regarding its charge:
Land Acquisition: Land for the new City Hall should be secured as
quickly as practical. The City Council should consider use of its
cash reserve for full, outright purchase of the site selected.
0ccupancy: The new City Hall should be ready for occupancy on March
1, 1993, the day after the first three-year renewal option expires on
the current lease for space at 7600 Executive Drive.
Financing Method: Several financing methods are available. The
Subcommittee strongly recommends that a Building Fund be established,
and that this new levy be set at 0.6 mills. Additionally, after the
new City Hall is occupied, the amount paid for rent in 1992 should
continue to be levied throughout the term of the construction
agreement (1997).
The Subcommittee's second choice is to issue general obligation bonds
approved through referendum. This choice would have the lower total
cost of long-term strategies, although there is risk that it would be
defeated. The referendum would need to be held by March 1991.
The third choice is using such instruments as certificates of
participation which offer the advantages of long-term financing, but
which carry interest charges up to one percent greater than bonds
approved by referendum.
Memoranda are attached and are to be considered a part of the
subcommittee's report.
MEMORANDUM
TO: Implementation and Finance Subcommittee
Residents Advisory Committee on City� Administrative Offices
FROM: Craig W. Dawson, Staff Liaison
SUBJECT: Financing Alternatives and Final Report
DATE: September 14, 1987
The Subcommittee is nearing completion of its work. A draft of the final report
should be presented to the full Committee on September 30.
The bulk of the report could be taken from a memorandum prepared for the
Subcommittee's June 11 meeting. Little if any information has been uncovered
which would conflict with or add to the information contained in that
memorandum.
Some additional information has been prepared as requested by the Subcommittee.
One of the techniques which the members found inviting was the establishment of
a building fund. This alternative embodies a pay-as-you-go philosophy, a method
generally not used in Eden Prairie because of a belief that future residents and
businesses should also bear the cost of long-lived City facilities. Some
concerns have also been raised that monies raised may not remain in the fund -
they may be raided for other purchases or in an attempt to reduce the City's tax
levy.
The following table and scenarios about the growth of a building fund have been
assembled without a great degree of sophistication but with quite conservative
assumptions.
Funds Raised Mill Levy @
Projected Assessed Value @ 0.6 Mill Levy $250,000 Levy
1988 $397 million $238,200

Assumptions
1. Growth in assessed value = $40 million/year
2. Tax increment financing districts are not returned to
general tax rolls (Partial retirement is, in fact,
anticipated for taxes payable 1990 of about $18 million
assessed value, and full retirement for taxes payable
1992 adding another $12 million assessed value.)
The following scenarios assume that payments for $4 million in construction
costs begin in 1992 for occupancy of the new City Hall on March 1, 1993.
Consequently, if a contract is entered into for the statutory-maximum five
years, the costs of construction should be paid in full by 1997. It is further
assumed that interest earnings will equal the cost of inflation; hence, both
matters are ignored.
Scenario A
Constant 0.6-mill levy $3,861,000
Funds raised thru 1997
Continuation of levy for rent 1993-1997 990,000
(Rent = $205,000 in 1992)
$4,851,000
Scenario B
Constant $250,000 levy $2,500,000
Funds raised thru 1997
Continuation of levy for rent 1993-1997 990,000
(Rent = $205,000 in 1992)
$3,590,000
Cost: The Subcommittee needs to recommend the cost of the project. To date,
the following figures have been used by the Subcommittee and/or other
subcommittees:
Building (incl. fees and other internal systems)
37,000-41,000 s.f. @$70 plus other items above $3.25 - 3.55 million
Site Work (Parking, Landscaping) 300,000
Land Cost (5-8 acres, $3.00+/s.f.) $0.7 - 1.1 million
Range of Cost $4.25 - 4.95 million
+ Contingency 400,000
$4.65 - 5.35 million
Implementation: Decisions need to be reached on the following items:
a) When should land be secured?
Much discussion has focused on the idea that the City should own,
or be in the process of buying, the land when the decision is
made to finance non-land costs for the New City Hall. It has been
suggested that Council secure the land as soon as practicable,
including outright purchase with use of the City's cash reserve.
- 3 -
b) When should the building be ready for occupancy?
Although the charge from the City Council stated that Council
will determine when the City will end leasing office space,
several Committee members have expressed opinions that a
recommendation should be made regarding a preference for
occupancy in the City's own building.
c) Which method(s) of financing are preferred and deserve further
analysis?
Several vehicles exist for financing the new City Hall. Some
of them have been discussed by the Subcommittee and some very
preliminary data have been prepared about possible financial
impact. Any alternative recommended by the Subcommittee should
have more thorough analysis by firms with financial expertise
on these matters. The Subcommittee should identify its
preferences in order of priority.
Considerable discussion has taken place about the use of referendum for
financing approval. The following table gives examples on the use of referendum
in some other metropolitan area suburbs.
Apple Valley Original building approved with referendum.
Expansions accomplished without referendum.
New City Hall will probably be with referendum.
Brooklyn Park Present City Hall and expansions without referendum.
New facility without referendum.
Burnsville New City Hall with referendum (1987).
Champl in Original building approved with referendum.
Expansion & remodeling approved with referendum (1987)
Chanhassen Facility approved with referendum (on second try)
Chaska New facility approved without referendum.
Maple Grove Original City Hall approved with referendum.
Expansion approved with referendum.
Minnetonka Original building approved without referendum.
Expansion approved without referendum.
New Brighton Original building approved with referendum.
Expansion approved with referendum.
Plymouth Facility approved without referendum.
St. Louis Park Facility approved without referendum.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Implementation and Finance Subcommittee
Residents Advisory Committee in City Administrative Offices
FROM: Craig Dawson, Staff Liaison
SUBJECT: Financing Alternatives
DATE: June 11, 1987
At its last meeting, the Subcommittee was presented several financing alternatives which
are available to the City. We have explored some of these options during the interim and
compiled the following information to assist in making recommendations.
Referendum: Traditionally, the safest way to obtain the lowest rate of interest for
financing a City Hall is through a referendum approving the issuance of bonds. The City
commits its full faith and credit during the term of the bonds. Because interest on the
bonds is tax-exempt, the City is able to pay off the bonds with lower rates of interest
than conventional financing. The City of Eden Prairie generally issues debt for periods
of 15 - 20 years, although State law allows up to 30 years.
Two risks are readily apparent with a referendum. First, the amount of bonds to be
authorized is high because numerous contingences and inflation must be included. This may
contribute to the second risk: the referendum may fail.
Bonds must be issued within "a reasonable period of time" after a referendum passes. This
time frame is fuzzy, and we would rely on bond counsel advice.
Current federal law also exempts a City which issues less than $5 million in a calendar
year to have bond proceeds for that year from arbitrage rules.
Lease Purchase. The City Attorney advises that State law prohibits purchases which take
more than five years to accomplish unless they have been approved by referendum. Several
techniques have been designed to finesse around the literal interpretation of the statute.
One such option is issuing certificates of participation. (The Subcommittee has been
provided with two examples of this vehicle.) Under this arrangement a financial
corporation and the City would execute a lease/purchase agreement and issue certificates
for in te
contract other parties invest n One
actfordeed betweentheCityand the financial corporation. Thep
Citygwouldhin
effect, but not technically, be retiring the debt through annual lease appropriations.
Technically, the City's obligation is only for one year; hence, an element of risk is
introduced and the rate of interest under this arrangement is 0.5 to 1.0 percent higher
than a referendum-approved issue. Bond counsels advise that interest earned on the
certificates is exempt from federal income tax, but would be taxable on the state income
schedule.
Another tool is a more conventional lease purchase arrangement which would not entail the
certificates described above. With this mechanism a builder functions as mortgagor in
what would customarily be a turnkey transaction. Advantages to having a private party
•
construct a building include the savings in time compared to that required public bidding
process, and the alleged savings in costs which private projects have over public
undertakings. Formerly, developers were able to have the tax-exempt status of these
projects pass through to them. Recent changes in federal law removed this benefit. Under
the conventional arrangement, the City would also be liable for real estate taxes (paid in
the rent) until the purchase was consummated.
Lease purchase is not to be confused with sale leaseback, a concept which was popular a
few years ago. Sale leaseback involves a City selling a property to another entity and
then paying it for use of, or a guarantee of revenue for the facility. A notable local
example is the St. Paul Civic Center.
Establishment of a Building Fund: Another technique to finance a new City Hall is on a
pay-as-you-go basis. A building fund is a variant of this method. Because of the five-
year limit on pruchases, a fund would need to be established and revenue accumulated
before construction is begun. The difference between construction costs and the building
fund balance at the time of construction would need to be paid within five years.
The City could also take advantage of moneys in its General Fund Reserve. The amount
available varies from year to year; for discussion purposes, however, one could consider
$1 million for a one-time expense.
City staff has tried to formulate hypothetical cash flow models based on a differing costs
and different dates of occupancy. Significant changes relating to a City's taxing
authority and the computations for assessed valuation were just adopted by the 1987
Legislature. For example, in 1988 all cities may increase their levy base only 3 percent
plus an adjustment for population, but NOT an adjustment for increased
conmecial/industrial valuation. (It appears that the C/I valuation escalator will be
restored in 1989.) At this time, it is premature to make projections without a fuller
understanding of the ramifcations of the new statutes.
Some discussion had occurred about the impact on a "typical" Eden Prairie homestead if a
set amount of property tax revenue were set aside for a building fund. The following
table represents the effect of a $250,000 levy for taxes payable 1987:
Homestead
Est. Mkt. Value "Extra" Tax
$ 80,000 $ 11.61
120,000 19.78
160,000 27.96
The mill rate impact would have been 0.73 mills. A mill raised $341,000 in 1987.
Again, changes in the property classificaiton and taxation system make projections about
1988 taxes highly speculative. The 1987 figures should, however, represent the highest
cost because there will be new tax base growth.

Final Comments: All of the Committee members wish t'
the privilege to participate in a study which will l
Eden Prairie. The Council's aim of broad-based reps._
on this Committee was realized: each member brought different perspectiv.
priorities into the planning and study process, and the Committee arrived at a
thoughtful, well-rounded consensus which is conveyed in this report. We commend
the City Council for the generous financial and staff resources which it made
available thoughout the study. Without this assistance, the Committee's work
would have been considerably longer and have had less depth of analysis. The
Committee is confident that this report provides the City Council with several
viable, practical alternatives for the construction of a new City Hall. We,
too, wait for this project to reach fruition and look forward to being present
for its grand opening.
