(Ordinance No. 13-89 - Rezoning from Rural to R1-22;
Resolution No. :(4- 104 -. Preliminary Plat) Continued from
June 6, 1989 Council meeting.
Bob Smith, representing the proponent, stated that a
compromise had been presented to eliminate the need for
the two variances rel,.ated to lot size and frontage by
moving the road 16.5 feet. The variance for the Shoreland
was for the exir,t:ing home. The same ._amount of tree:; would
he removed. The building pads would be from 55 to 75 feet.and would bo buildable only for the home:; as prupo_;aj.
The• amount of land to be taken from the Rogers: property
had been reduced.
Franzen requested clarification on the :amount of trre %. the
proponent agreed to replace. Smith replied 262 caliper

Franzen pry__entc l three ept i ons tot the counr-1 1 ' >
r'cinsideratien: 1) The homeowners also be reepnn:;ibl'- or
tree replacement and the developer only he responsible for
the tree repl_ec:ement due to read c ere.t.uu tic,n, 2) The
prepencnt be required to replace they .•ni:1, -.aiipe-r
Inches of trues, 3) the Council ..e i riot Muni_! of '.he
project.
Anderson stated that: he was concerned about the
significant: amount of trees to be lost and how the City
would control the replacement of the t;:OCt, by the
individual homeowners. Anderson believed that t:he tree
replacement ahould be the responsibility of the developer.
Tenpas believed that the developer had raised legitimate
questions regarding the City's Tree Replacement Peliicy.
Peterson stated that this was not the way the City wished
to administer the Tree Replacement Policy; however,
because of the small number of lots involved .and because
the official ordinance wars to be before the Council within
60 days, he would reluctantly support the proposal to have
partial responsibility placed on the homeowner. Peterson
concurred with Tenpas that the proponent raised important
questions.
Harris :t::rt.- ei that the burden placed on the humeownr:rrs
4 would not he equitable. She added that some lots could
have high requirements and some could have none.
Anderson stated that the intent to preserve trees was net
part: of this proposal and he would not: favor such a
motion. Anderson added that other developers had adhered
to the City's policy and did not see any reason why t:hie
proponent: should not follow City policy.
Tenpas asked if this property was unique because it was
heavily wooded as well as Staff's opinion about policing
these 16 lots. Franzen replied that Staff would prefer
that the procedure be the same as in other developments.
Franzen : fated that homeowners expected these items to he
resolved prior to the purchase of the home. Franzen .idled
that: from an administrative standpoint it would be
difficult for :Taff to police.
Nancy Nicolay, 16011 Lakeshore nrive, stated that ::he and
her grandfather had received the revised plans on. Fri-..lay
end had not: had time to have them reviewed try ,in atterney.
Pauly aeke'd it ,.he and Mr. P,,.der:' were not la igreeniont to
,i land exchange with the r'ity. Nicolay replied that: it:
was not that they were not in agreement, hurt they needed
more time to hive their attorney review the , evi-;iuri.

Pauly it:at^d that there were two ,,:em:, on the agenda; .a
re;uru;t for rezoning and a request tor Preliminary Plat
approval . Pauly .asked Dietz if •+ Land Alteration Permit
would be required and how it would be .administered in the
development process. Dietz replied t.aff considered
A Land Alteration Permit as being ..appr :ve1 by the City
Council as part of the Prelimiuury Mat. Dietz added the
development: plans included a grading plan .and the Land
Alternation Permit was issued .after the Final Plat
approval.
Pauly .:tc.k-id Franzen If the area affected i.,y the ioning
change contained trees. Franzen replied ye: . ^mith noted
that only a fence row of trees was on th._ .ivo lots to be
Pauly otated that the City Code stated that di-voiopment:
plans should provide adequate plans to mitigate any damage
to the environment. Pauly .added that based on this
statement there would not be significant reason- i.o ,lc•ny
the request: for rezoning; however, granting the Land
Alt.; r:at:i in Permit would he implicit regarding th
Preliminary Plat request. The platting could be
conditional on the mitigation on the damage to the
envirnm,-nt .and the requirement of a reasonable
replacement of t:ree:i. The City's Tree Replacement Policy
was an ace.eptrtble means to guarantee the mitigation of
the damage to the environment. Pauly noted that rezoning
items required 4 votes for approval.
George Hoff, .attorney for the proponent, stated that he
concurred with City Attorney Pauly that there was no
reason for denial of the rezoning request. Regarding
Preliminary Plat approval, there had not been articulated
standard:, set. Hoff staled that at this time the
proponent had not been requested to .apply for :a Land
Alteration P,•rmit. Hoff staled that the proponent would
not object to a contingency !',,r the requirement of ., Land
Alteration Permit, to lie revieweal prior to Final Plat
approval. Hnff elated that tlr. Dugerr: would reuri a= more
land than , riginally proposed. The Final Plat approval

Tenpas .a:;l,•.l if the 1G1 caliper inciies could L:a replaced
on the vacaa:'. lots. Franzen replied t.h•at this:: would he
difficult. .:miLh added that 7 bats were unwooded on this
parcel and trees could also be placed on the adjacent
project for Strawberry Hills which had 4 lots. Tenpas
then Basked if it would be possible far the homeowners to
put the required amount of trees on their property.
Yran :en replied it would he difficult.
Peterson asked where the remainder of the trees would ye
if they could not he placed on these lots. Franzen
replied that the intent was to restore the property, the
next area would he the entrance to the dovelepment, City
parks, or .a cash donation to the Natural Pesources Fund.
Peterson '.aelieved that the City had the authority .and a •
commitment to the entire community to preserve the trees.
Tenpas preferred that if the property could only support:
:.iii caliper inches, the requirement be reduced. Tenpas
recommended a workshop to discuss the entire Tree
Replacement Policy issue. Tenpas stated that he supported
the saving of trees; however, he believed that: this case
was enique.
Harris: :.tatc•d that: this was a difficult issue; however,
she did nef wish to place the burden of tree replacement
on the homeowner. Harris believed that this would set a
precedent:. The added that 30 projects had already been
approved according to the requirements of the Tree
Replacement Policy and believed that it: was important to
treat all proposals equitably. Harris supported City
Attorney Pauly';: recommendation for the condition of the
Land Alteration Permit.
Tenpas asked how many of the 30 project approved had not
been able to replace the trees on their project. Franzen
replied that .i projects out of the 30 had placed trees in
the City parks.

project was not out of character with the existing homes.
Franzen noted that none of the lots along Bryant: Lake
would comply with the current Shorelund Ordinance. 'The
Planning Commission believed that the proposed home would
be hidden as it was being built. into the hillside.
Franzen stated that if th,: t;r e loss were calculated oo
only one lot it could be considered excessive; however,
the tree loss should take into consideration all three
lots. The access would be from an existing private drive.
Franzen noted that private drives had been allowed in the
past as an acceptable access when tree loss would be
mitigated. The grading on the site would be limited to
the house urea. The garage would be located near the east

Iris property. Nolan stated that the main concern was the
addition ,J the thi:cd home on the site. He added that the
private road only had a 20-foot right-of-way and he was
concerned about how emergency vehicles would provide
service to these homes. Nolan stated that he had talked
with Don Pram of the Planning Staff and believed that the
average lot size was 1.5 acres and not 1.3 acres. This
lot of .83 acres would be the smallest lot on the lake.
Nolan added that the total of the 3 lots was only 1.3
acres. Nolan was concern that if this subdivision were
approved, how would the C.,uncil be able to deny other
similar proposals. Nolan also believed that the septic

Dr , Wesley Burnham, 71J0 Willow Creek Road, stated that he

were out_.ide of the City Code. All of the lots in the
area were on septic systems. Franzen added that all of

ignificant damage to existing vegetation.
Anderson stated that 16 years ago it was the sewer and

told then that sewer and water would be available in this
area. Anderson asked Dietz it sewer would be available
within the next 10 years. Dietz replied that this type of

(as que tedby Timber...Lake Homeowner's A ociation)
Dietz reported that the request before the Council was to
raise the levels of Mitchell Lake ..,rid Red Rock Lake; this
request could he accommodated. The City ..lid not have
drainage and utility easements for both lakee. The cost
of acquiring the easements would be approximately $2,500.
Dietz r.fated that MnDOT might pay to increase the size of
' he . tormwater pipe in conjunction with the highway 5
improveneee project:. The cast for Red Pock L.,k" would be
approximately 500. Dietz added that a perirdt. would be
needed from the DNR.
Peterson asked Dietz to elaborate on the effect;, for the
t side of Mitchell Lake. Dietz replied that the a
development proposal was being reviewed by the Planning
cemmiseion and Staff based on a high-water level :Alevation
of 870. A different elevation of the lake could affect
the setbacks for the lakeshore lots.
Lambert stated that preliminary plans fur a trail along)
the west side of Mitchell Lake had been :supported by the
residents and Council; however, if the lake level were
raised, the trail would not be able to be constructed.
Lambert believed that the increase in the level of the
lake was more important than the completion of the trail.
Anderson concurred with Lambert that it was important to
have the lake healthy again by raising the surface level;
however, he was concerned about the options for a trail
being closed.
Jim Nehl, 8011 Island Road, stated that everyone contacted
had responded favorably to the raised elevation of
Mitchell Lake with the exception of two. Nehl believed
that the request was reasonable and further that a
healthy, usable lake was important.
Bob Pitel, 7947 South Clay Curve, etated that: many trees
lead been destroyed by the high water . He added that he
was in the process of restoring the trees. Pitel
luc.r,t fiened it an increase of 1 soot would ;rake
•
recognizable difference in the health of the Like. Pitel
questioned if Staff was aware of what the damage to
vegetation would be.
i 'nnr 20, 1989
Rob Evans, '5009 Island Road, stated that the lake had been
low-red by he City. He :,aid that last •Near the
W,menwnera 5ociation had paid $1000 to have the Lake
cleaned and if something was not dune i t would need to be
lune again this year. Evans believed that: a leaner,
healthier lake was important.
lee Johnson, representing US Homes, stated that he was in
the process of planning a development on the west side of
Mitchell Lake. Johnson stated that an increase in the
elevation could have en effect on the setback requirements
tor the lakeshere lots, which could produce a domino
.affect on all of the lots. Johnson considered the
increase in elevation as taking away from his property.
Bill Eder, 5641 Red Oak Drive, stated that he was pleased
to see that iced Rock Lake was also being considered for a
raise in elevation. tie added that a rque t. had been made
to rais,t the elevation when the piping was installed.
Edes hoped that any negative results to Mitchell Lake
would not .affect .i decision For Red Rock Lake.
Dave Knaak, 7935 South Bay Curve, helleved that
consideration for the safety of the homes, a stable
elevation, and preservation of the wetlaiidr: were all
important. Knaak stated that unless a decision were made
it was difficult for the property owners to make plans for
their properties. Knaak, stated that a historical high-
water level mark had been established. Knaak questioned
if .i given level. could be maintained, or it: the weather
would control the level. Dietz replied that an elevation
could be set; however, the weat:her would affect the level
somewhat. Dietz added that more development on the lake
would affect the runoff. Dietz stated that the highest
level was measured at 874, which represented thu 100-year
flood elevation. The high-water mark would be established
at 2.5 feet higher than the permanent elevation.
A resident stated that he would lose approximately 50,000
square feet of land at an elevation of 871.5. He
requested that careful consideration be given to the
elevation.
Evans asked if water could be pumped from Round Lake.
Diets replied that Round Lake was also low.

II. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. Proposed 1990 Budget and Tax Lec_y
Jullie summarized the 1990 General Fund and Operating Budget
Proposal of $13,289,700, an increase of 9.6% over the 1989
spending level. This :unounl. is based upon a 9.7% increase in
the number of households and a 4.0% increase for the local
rate of inflation over the past year. Revenue needed for
long-term bonded debt is $1 ,967,000, an increase of $606,000
o\er 11+89. The total 1990 operating budget and long-term
debt proposed is $15,192,700, an increase of 13.2% over the
1969 figure of &13,398,000. The total property tax levy for
1
'°mhcr it, 1989
1990 is $11 ,858,000, an amount 28.4% greater than in 1989.
Revenue sources other than property tries is $3.4 million.
Sine11 explained that because information is not; yet
available on what the new tax capacity totals will be, it is
not possible to have an ;accurate figure to determine the
growth of the tax base.
He presented examples of projected taxes on residential
homestead properties assuming the estimated market values
were increased 3.4% from the 1988 (payable in 1989)
assessment. to the 1989 (payable in 1990) assessment using
new ( pay 901 property tax laws for properties located in
School District. 272 and Watershed District So. 4. A house
with an estimated market value (EMV) of $100,000 has net
city tax of $249 for 1988 (payable in 19891 . Homes in the
S75,000-200,000 EMV would result in an average increase of
20%. Homes valued at. $300,000 and up would increase 31% in
net. City tax.
The net school tax on a home of $100,000 C•MV in 1988
(payable in 1989) would be $794 and would decrease to $725
in 1989 (payable in 1990). This represents a decrease in
taxes of 8.7%.
The combined city and school tax for this particular home
would result in a decrease of $23 (2.2%) in 1990 over the
1989 tax levy.
Sinell reported the projected taxes on commercial and
industrial properties assuming the estimated market values
were increased 3.0% from the 1988 (payable in 1989)
assessment to the 1989 payable in 1990 assessment using the
new (pay 90) property tax laws. The properties were located
in School District 272 and Watershed District No. 1 .
A commercial/industrial property of $1,000,000 EMV in 198R •
(payable in 19R9) had a net. City and school tag. of S23,371
resulting in an increase of 6.4% payable in 1990. The City
tax payable in 1990 would be $1 ,4R5. He also reported on
the projected taxes on apartment properties assuming the EMV
had no increase from the 1988 assessment (payable in 1989)
to the 1989 assessment (payable in 1990) using the new (pay
901 property tax laws. The properties were located in School
District 272 and Watershed District No. 4.
\n apartment property of $1,000,000 EMV in 198R (payable in
1989) had a net combined tax of $27, 138 and $25,813 for 1989
(payable in 19901--a decrease of $1 ,625 (5.9%),

r-it rounci 1 19x9
Sinell also referred a table on the values of single family
property that indicated the majority of properties were in
the $75,000 - S1.49,000 range of EMI'.
Ju11ie explained the major changes in the debt service
levies. The City suspended payments on certificates of
indebtedness (to finance purchases of police, fire, and
public works equipment) for one year to balance the 1989
budget in anticipation of a large increase in the tax base
for 1990. To resume the repayment schedule for this and
other operating fund debt, a net levy of $600,000 is
proposed for 1990. Also, local governmental aid shifted to
the school district--a loss of $331,000 taken from the City
and transferred to school districts.
He further reported an increase of $125,000 for a new
communications center in the police department. The City
has outgrown the facility shared with Richfield. An
additional increase of . 120,000 is needed for bike trail and
park access improvements. .tullie reported that 10.4 new
staff positions are proposed.
Tenpas asked Sinell if the recently passed referendum was
reflected in the school district budget figures. Pidcock
questioned the tax capacity rate for the City. Sinell
commented the rate was 20.736%. Pidcock requested the net
percentage of difference from 1989 over 1990 in tax. Sinell •
answered 30 percent.
Marty Siegel , 18453 Tristram Way, expressed concern to keep
taxes from rising and requested the City to come up with a
way of spending less dollars.
Dierdre Griswold, 10537 Bluff Road, asked how interest
income goes down and the level of borrowing goes up. Frane
explained that interest rates have fallen and the net
.attstan;ling debt has decreased.
Tenpas questioned if the total bonded debt has increased
every year. Frane said the total debt was at a low point
now. Tenpas requested that the Council receive a clearer
report when negative fund balances occur,
t;riswold asked for an explanation on whether tax revenues
from property taxes received semi-annually go into an
interest hearing account , Jullie clarified that property tax
receipts are used to offset. negative account balances which
have accumulated. Griswold staled the City has a high debt.

1,r;uic explained the City has to aid for the development of
fire stations, parks, new construction and other buildings
involved in City growth. Peterson commented that debt
repayment for new private development does not come from the
Cit.? tax. Tenpas inquired on the possibility to reduce the
debt financed.
Dave Kelley, 10260 Summer Place, asked why the City had to
increase its portion of the budget. He addressed the issue
that as more people come into the City, more tax dollars
would be available for the City. He said the voters were
clear in defeating the park referendum and higher taxes were
the answer.
Rick Atherton, 6980 Sand Ridge Road, expressed concern that
homes were decreasing in market value, yet taxes continued
to rise.
Linda McDevitt, 9498 Olympia Drive, commented the increased
taxes were not in line with the services. She said taxes
had to be held.
Tenpas stated that in 1989 taxes were distributed as
follows: 16% to the city, 50% to the school districts, and
27% to the county. He said the process used to assess value
on new development and existing homes was difficult.
McDevitt said the taxes should be in line with other cities.
Pidcock questioned how many people voted at school board
elections or monitored the school districts' activities,
since the district has 50% of the total tax.
Karel Newman, 6959 Tartan Curve, requested the Council to
find ways to decrease property taxes.
Sandy Carlson, 14091 Sundial Court, commented that the taxes
were too high in Eden Prairie and budget ruts must be found.
She made reference to corporations that lay off staff to •
meet budget demands.
Kris Carson, 10332 Franlo Road, had a concern on the
distribution of funds and the total percentage allocated to
each department. Jnllie responded that departmental growth
fluctuates, but this basically has not changed. Carson
commented as the rity grows, additional money comes in and
the services should change. Peterson commented that as the
City grows, the services performed increase also. •
a
• City Council Minutes SovPmbc•r 30, 1989
Craig DeBrau, 11089 Mount Curve Road, spoke in favor of a
decrease of the City budget . He questioned win' the property
tax of a $310,000 home is approximately six times more than
a home of $77,600 estimated value, but the services received
are not six times greater. Tenpas commented that the State
has a system set for determining property taxes. DeBrau
clarified that the City has no play on the mill rates and
would like the City to be a leader in lowering property
taxes. Pidcock and Jullie commented that some Council
members are on committees addressing the tax problem.
DeBrau commented that the City budget may have room for
cutting. He also asked for clarification on the percentage
of increase over the years in the operating budget. Jullie
replied that the budget reflects a 9.6% increase over the
1989 operating fund. DeBrau also asked for clarification of
Human Services. Swaggert commented the budget dollars help
the elderly, disabled, and persons in trouble or disturbed.
The county purchases the services of staff to assist. DeBrau
further inquired if the City should expend more money on
sewer, water, fire protection, etc. if the City decreases in
the future. Anderson indicated that people are moving into
the City and new growth involves additional people and
funds. Peterson reported that the new schools built can be
converted into residential or commercial property. Frane
noted the staff has been adamant and come in with a budget
proposal of what is needed to get the job done rather than
what is hoped for.
Carol Fyock, 13188 Cardinal Creels Road, asked why the
Delinquency Allowance line of the property tax collections
showed a large increase over the previous year. Franc
explained that the budget proposal reflects the City's
actual expenditure and the 1989 figure is lower than the
actual. Fyock also questioned the increase in Facilities.
Schmieg explained that the department is a new program and
Jullie stated the City began paying rent in 1988. Fyock
said tho f).it% increases .:n� ,I'mecept>thle.
-am G;ragiirtrdo, 11831 Curve Road, commented the City is
pricing itself out of the market. He asked t-he Council to

third: the market values were going up as much as t!he tare
do in the city.
[lase Kelley suggested the Council return the proposal to
staff with the request to reduce the budget by 10% and help
relieve the trues.
Regan 4assee, t7571 Michelle Lane, questioned what happened
with ,collars remaining at year end and the effect on the
following year's budget. Frane expressed that the philosophy
of the City was for departmental managers was to ask for
what was needed to get their joh done. "Unspent" dollars .
were placed in the General Fund balance for the following
year.
Boger Swigart, 1318-I Cardinal creek head, had concerns that.
the city was not spending funds appropriately. lie said some
homes in Eden Prairie had not been assessed for four years.
He .'ommented that the 30% increase in the budget required
serious consideration by the counctl .
Robert ttikelson, 11742 'fount Curve Road, inquired if salary
increases were taken from the Reserve program and how much
was proposed. Jullie explained the salary adjustments would
be hosed on a 1.3% cost-of-living increase for the
4inneapoIis/tit.. Paul area and chatttes in the comparable
worth program to State of '-linnesota mandate). Mikelson
questioned the SJS0,Ot10 amount in the 1987-88 reserve. Fran,'
stated that the budget was overspent because of the
contested case landfill hearing. Michels also asked if the
Park Capita] outlay included items that were not passed in
the referendum; if so, he said the voters turned it down and
the City 'seemed to make room in the budget for the
particular item. Peterson commented that the Council 'a
priority is with safety issues.
Kent Barker, 15R01 Cedar Ridge Road, spoke in favor of the
city's park system, but, said the misunderstanding was
between the budget twhich can he reduced) and the level of
taxation. He said it might be helpful for residents to know
how much money has been given to fiscal disparities. He also
said Eden Prairie did not pose a threat to the Legislature
Iu' —iuse it did not receive state aid as other cities do. He
said the concern was taxation, not budget. He urged all
people in the community to stud;: and understand the taxation
system.

was a good way to educate people. i•etet•con mentioned the
cablecasting is still under debate but the money is not
available for 1990. Tenpas noted that the equipment was
available, but volunteers would have to run it. Schwartz
desired the Council to trim the budget. He said the
Assessing Department has a large increase for furniture and
Facilities also has a Large increase for office supplies.
Sinell responded that the furniture is for a new part-time
staff member's work station and replacement of a broken
chair. Schwartz favored trimming the budget to a normal
increase over the previous year.
Tom Cooney, Mt.. Curve Road, said he could nct understand
where his tax money was going and what benefit he should he
receiving. He was concerned about how many properties have
decreased in value in the past year and that effect when he
wished to sell his house.
Marty Siegel stated he expressed concern to make reductions
in the budget at an earlier Council meeting and said he did
not think cuts had been made. tie asked if the Council was
prepared to ask the city manager• to come back with a budget
decrease. Tenpas stated the Council. had to discuss this.

should receive fund balance account information and have a
Saturda'- work session during budget proposal time.
Peterson recommended that staff review each department and
come back with a 5% increase to the Council. Anderson asked
that specific cuts be identified. Harris agreed with the
comments. J
Tenpas desired to see salary increases allocated within each
department rather than the reserve and requested a budget
figure in for legal expenses. Jullie commented the
adjustments were based on a performance review process and
thus not allocated to any individual department. Pidcock
confirmed that the Reserve program did not allow a 4.3%
increase across-the-board for staff.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Waste Management Commission
SUBJECT: 1989 Annual Report
DATE: December 14, 1989
We wish to present the first annual report of the Waste Management
Commission. Considering that 1989 was the first year of existence of
the Commission, the amount of work accomplished was substantial.
During 1990, the Commission hopes to take on more of a leadership role
in environmental waste issues. Among the goals identified for 1990
are expanded public information and awareness efforts, recycling for
multi-family residential complexes, implementation of an ordinance for
environmentally-acceptable packaging, and an emphasis on responsible
use and disposal of hazardous household chemicals. We look forward to
working in partnership with the Council on these emerging issues next
year.

1[ MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Waste Management Commission
SUBJECT: Household Battery Removal
DATE: November 30, 1989
On June 22, 1989 the Eden Prairie City Council requested that the
Commission investigate the feasibility of a program to remove the household
batteries from the residential solid waste stream. A review of materials
from the National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) was also
suggested.
A Household Battery Removal Committee was formed to review the NEMA
materials and follow the Hennepin County Recycling Task Force examination
of this issue. Based on this information, it is recommended that the City
not consider any direct inolvement at this time. The County has suggested
that collection of nickel/cadmium (rechargeable) batteries and alkaline
batteries will begin by December 1, 1989 at select collection stations.
The County is better prepared to handle this waste stream which will be
subject to the EPA and MPCA Hazardous Waste Rules. The expense of this
special handling is best controlled at the County level.
The City can facilitate the public awareness of this issue through the
distribution of educational materials and presentations. The Waste
Management Commission is developing such materials at this time. Promotion
of household battery collection will serve the City's desire to free the
waste stream of heavy metals, but the responsibility for handling this part
of the hazardous waste stream should be placed in the hands of those most
prepared to handle it financially.
The Waste Management Commission will continue to monitor this issue during
the coming months and advise the Council of any additional pertinent
information.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
THP.U: Carl Jullie, City Manager
FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation & Natural
Resources A,
DATE: December 12, 1989
SUBJECT: Proposed Cooperative Agreement with the Watershed
District for Additional Hydrologic and Hydraulic Analysis
of the Creek System Downstream of the Purgatory Creek
Recreation Area
Since 1983 the City has been reviewing various possibilities to
develop the Purgatory Creek floodplain south of Highway 5 and west
of Prairie Center Drive, known as the Purgatory Creek Recreation
Area. The majority of the plans to date depict dredging five to
six large ponding areas within that floodplain to create open water
that would not only provide an improved wildlife habitat in the
area, but would also create an amenity for the adjacent properties.
The dredging of these ponding areas would be an expensive project
that could easily cost in excess of $2,000,000.
In an attempt to determine if there was any feasible way to create
a cooperative project between several governmental agencies and/or
private organizations, City staff have been discussing a possible
joint development project with the Fish and Wildlife Service, Ducks
Unlimited, the Corp of Engineers, Department of Natural Resources,
and the Watershed District. Representatives from each of these
groups have met on several occasions to determine what type of
project would be feasible and supported by all interested parties.
All representatives indicated that it would be much more feasible
to create the open water through the construction of a water
control structure raising the water elevation rather than dredging
ponding areas, that would not only be expensive to construct but
also expensive to maintain. The first step to determine whether
or not it is feasible to develop a water control structure and
raise the water elevation is to determine the impact on flood
storage to the creek system. Obviously, adjacent property owners
would not want the 100 year flood elevation raised around the
Purgatory Creek Recreation Area; therefore, the increased flood
storage would have to be accommodated either upstream or
downstream. The most obvious location would be to handle the
additional storage in Staring Lake. In order to determine the
impact on Staring Lake and Staring Lake Park, it is necessary to
calculate 50 year or 100 year flood occurrences downstream and
determine to what elevation Staring Lake would rise.
Attached to this memo is correspondence between City staff and the
Watershed District requesting the Watershed District Board of
•
Directors to consider authorization to determine this impact. The
ff Watershed District Board met on December 6th and agreed to enter
into a cooperative agreement with the City of Eden Prairie on a
fifty-fifty match for an analysis that would cost approximately
$3000.
City staff requests authorization from the City Council to approve
this analysis and to incur costs up to but not to exceed $1500.
Upon review of this information staff will then recommend whether
or not the City should consider proceeding with a joint project for
a water control structure that would raise the elevation of the
water in the Purgatory Creek Recreation Area.

- MEMORANDUM -
TO: Roger Pauly, City Attorney
FROM: Alan Gray, P.E.
City Engineer
DATE: December 13, 1989
RE: Dpen Excavation on Lot 1, Block 1, Darkenwald Addition
The purpose of this memo is to document an on-site condition on Lot 1, Block
1, Darkenwald First Addition. A basement excavation was begun and apparently
abandoned on this lot earlier this year. The excavation ranges in depth from
12 to 15 feet. The north edge of the excavation is sloped allowing access.
The east, south and west walls are sloped nearly vertically. Spoil materials
from the excavation are piled directly adjacent to the east and west slopes •
of the excavation. The soils have a high organic content and are low in
strength.
The combination of the nearly vertical Slopes, low strength soils and spoil
materials piled adjacent to the excavation make the risk of a cave-in
extremely high. A snow fencing material has been placed around the •
excavation but inspections show that the snow fencing material is easily
opened allowing access to the excavation by children from the adjacent
residential neighborhood. The character of this excavation poses several
risks to children who may play in the area. First there is a risk of a fall
from any point along the east, south or west edges of the excavation.
Secondly there is the risk of a cave-in burying a child that might play in
the bottom of the excavation. Thirdly, since the excavation is undrained,
there is the risk that it could fill with water and present a drowning hazard
to a small child.
The current snow fence material is inadequate to prevent children from
playing in or adjacent to this hazardous excavation. Only filling of the
excavation will eliminate the current hazards.

6. In May and June of 1989, a basement excavation was begun
on the Property that has apparently been abandoned, leaving a
large hole on the Property.
7. The excavation ranges in depth from 12 to 15 feet. The

other persons, and animals could fall Erom any
point along the east, south or west edges of the
excavation and become injured; •
b. The snow fencing material is easily opened allowing •
access to the ,excavation by children Erom the adja-
cent residential neighborhood, and therefore the •
excavation is a dangerous and attractive nuisance
to children;
c. The soils surrounding the excavation have a high
organic content and are low in strength. The com-
bination of the nearly vertical slopes, low
strength soils and spoil materials piled adjacent
to the excavation make the risk of a cave-in extre-
mely high, endangering children that might play in
the bottom of the excavation;
d. Since the excavation is undrained, there is the
risk that it could fill with water and present a

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
Parks, Recreation and Nat
ural Resources Commission
THRU: Carl Jullie, City :Manager
FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Parks, Recreation and Nat_ral
Resources�p���
DATE: December 12, 1989
SUBJECT: Staring Lake Amphitheater Rental Policy
Attached to this memo is a draft copy of a policy for public use
of the Staring Lake Amphitheater. This policy was reviewed by the
Historical and Cultural Commission on December 7, 1989 and by the •
Performing Arts Committee on December 11th. It will be revieweu
by the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission on
December 18th and the City Council on December 19th.
During the review process, one individual asked the question
"Should we even Le allowing the public to use this facility?"
Although that is certainly an appropriate question, staff have
always assumed that there would be some public use of this
facility. If there is public use of the facility, it is important
to have a fairly definitive rental policy that will define who may
use the facility, when they may use it, how they may use it, and
what the costs are. The purpose of the rental policy is to answer
all of those questions prior to reserving this facility.
Reservations for all park facilities generally begin as of January
1st of each year. The City has already received requests for
sunrise services from churches and questions on whether or not we
will rent the facility for weddings or "private" concerts.
A concern of City staff is that activity at the amphitheater does
not distract or take away from the enjoyment of Staring Lake Park
by other park users. The draft rental policy attempts to address •
all of these concerns.
•
The parks, recreation and natural resources staff recommend City
Council approval of this rental policy at this time, recognizing
there may have to be some adjustments to the policy after we have
experienced some use of the facility.

Barton-Aschm-n has been retained by the City of Eden Prairie to determine
the traffic impacts of the proposed development. The primary scone of the

study will consist of determining the amount, nature, and diruutional
distribution of the site-generated traffic, as well as providing a
recommendation for which of the three access alternatives is most
appropriate.

EXISTING C ONDITIoNS

Land Use
1 The existing land use surrounding the Public Storage site is primarily
single family residential, with the following exceptions. Lumuliately to
the north of the site, in the southwest quadrant of the intersection of CSAH
18 and Anderson Lakes Parkway, there exists a retail development consisting
of a supermarket and several smaller stores. Tb the east of CSAH 18 on
111 Anderson Lakes Parkway (Bloomington Ferry Road) there exists a small
commercial development which includes a McDonald's Restaurant and a Super
1 America gas station. A parcel east of CSAH 18 across from the site is
currently undeveloped.
Street and Highway Characteristics
CSAH 18 is a heavily traveled two-lane arterial with a 50 mph 4.)w.1 limit.
There are several existing driveways accotainq the proposed site which serve
the existing older, farm-type residences. Currently there are no right turn
•
or bliss lanes for these driveways.
5
11
11
Anderson [.ekes Parkway. is a collector roamny corsi:;tirtj
11 widening to four lanes as it approaches CSAH 18 from the west. The roadway
is divided by a median from the intersection west to a point beyond the
shopping center acrnsa, approximately 500 feet. The intersection of t csc
two roadways is controlled by an actuated signal. There are left-turn lanes
provided eastbound and westh-una from O;;AH 18. Currently, Hennepin County
is planning striping revisions to CSAH 18 to provide one additional lane on
both approaches, for a total of three.
I
Existing Traffic Volumes
31
In the vicinity of the proposed site, CSAH 18 has an average daily traffic
volume (ACT) of 11,850 vehicles. This figure is obtained from a volume
111 study performed by Hennepin Ccninty in November, 1986. The intersection of
CvAH 18 and Anderson Lakes Parkway has an ACT of approximately 48,670 with
an A.M. peak hour of 2,632 vehicles from 7:00 to 8:00, and a P.M. peak hour
/11 of 2,962 from 5:00 to 6:00. The peak hour turning rcvament counts were
•
taken by Barton-Aschrtian Associates, Inc. on June 15, 1989. Dusting traffic
volumes are shown in Figure 4.
A signalized intersection capacity analysis was perfcamul for the A.M. and
P.M. peak hours at the intersection of CSAH 18 and Anderson Lakes Parkway
using the existing peak hour volumes. This analysis (located in the
Appendix) found that for both the A.M. and P.M. peak hours, the intersection
is currently operating at Level of Service D, which iplies that the
intersection is near capacity. However, several of the individual

11. approaches and turning movements operate at ur above capacity during the
1 P.M. peak hour, causing substantial delays. These include all the left-turn
movements and the entire west approach. Observations and previous studies
1 confirm that the intersection is operating at a poor level of service.
1 PUMPS CONDITIONS
1
In the near future, Hennepin rryuaty will restripe the northbound and
1 southbound approaches of the intersection to provide an additional lane to
GSAH 18. This will provide a total of three lanes: one left-turn lane, one
1 through lane and one right-turn lane. This will improve the level of
1 service at the intersection during the A.M. and P.M. peak hours. However,
traffic at the intersection can be expected to increase somewhat by the time
1 !" the proposed development is completed. In order to evaluate future
conditions at the intersection, the following assumptions have been made:
1
1 1. Restriping will be completed, and
1 2. Traffic at the intersection will increase by three percent by project..
completion (sometime in 1990). j
1 7.
1 The projected 1990 base volumes for the A.M. and P.M. peak hours are shown
in Figure 5.
3
A capacity analysis was perforMid for this future condition to determine
1 conditions when the site traffic would be added. These analyses are shown .

Trip Generation
•
The proposed development that will generate additional traffic consists of a
self ci.mvice storage facility with 495 units, an 8,087 square foot day care
center and 7,600 square feet of professional office space. The fourth
edition of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation
11 Manual was u1i to develop the A.M. and P.M. peak hour as well as the
average daily traffic (ADT) trip generation rates for the proposed •
development. The projected total trip generation is sham in Table 2.
I
Trip Distribution
Site traffic direction of approach and departure was assumed to be
consistent with existing traffic patterns. The existing A.M. and P.M. peak-
hour traffic counts were used to determine this distribution. Figure 6
illustrates the overall distribution of approach and departure for the
development's traffic.
Site Ards
I
Fcr each arrps alternative, traffic was assigned to the proprK-.'d driveways
Iconsistent with the existing traffic distribution. Assutrptions used in the
assignment of traffic to individual driveways are discussed below.

Site aims, for this alternative consists of two driveways to alAH
with full access to the site. In conjunction with the driveway
construction, deceleration/bypass lanes will be added to CEAH 13 in front of
the site to remove turning traffic from the mainline. Entering and exiting
1 site traffic was assigned to a sf,rz.ific driveway based on proximity to i:.::
destination and typically observed driver behavior. For instance, the
office traffic was assigned to the northern driveway, the day care traffic
split between the two based on direction of arrival (or departure), and the
storage facility traffic was assigned to the southern driveway. Site
traffic volumes for each driveway, as well as total A.M. and P.M. peak hour
volumes for the intersection of CSAH 18 and Anderson Lakes Parkway are shoran
in Figure 7.
Alternative 2
i
This alternative consists of the same two driveways, however, only the
southern driveway allows full acr..pcq to G,Ati 18. The northern driveway is
restricted to right-in/right-out movements only. The site traffic
assignment procedure for this alternative was similar to that for
Alternative 1, with the exception that all left turns in and out were
assigned to the southern driveway. Entering and exiting volumes for each
driveway, as well as the total A.M. and P.M. peak hour traffic at the
•
intersection are shown in Figure 8.

Alternative 3 restricts both driveways to right-in/right-out rrnenents only.
Site traffic which would have entered or exited the site with a left turn in
1 Alternatives 1 and 2 is now requited to use an access provided through the
parking lot of the existing retail development to the north of the site
(Preserve Village Center) to Anderson Lakes Parkway. Site traffic
assignment for this alternative was based on ditt.Lion of approach or
11 departure. Site traffic approaching from the south and west was assumed to
enter from the Anderson Lakes Parkway ar n"s while traffic approaching from
the north and east was assumed to enter via the driveways on CSAH 18.
11 Sinilarly, site traffic departing the site to the south was assumed to exit
via the CSAH 18 driveways, while northbound, eastbound and westbound traffic
was assumed to exit to Anderson Lakes Parkway. Site traffic volumes for
each access point as well as total intersection volume for both the A.M. and
P.M. peak hours are shown in Figure 9.

overall level of service at the intersection does not change with the
addition of the site traffic for either. the A.M. or the P.M. peak hour (see
Table 3). Several of the individual turning movements would experience
several seconds additional delay, which may push them over the boundary into
the next level of service category. However, in all cases, the analysis
shows that the average queue length for each movement inLieases by less than
one vehicle.

AMISS CONSIDERATIONS
Unsignalized intersection capacity analyses were are performed for each of the
two site driveways for each of the three access alternatives. These are
shown in the appendix of this report. The analyses showed that for
' Alternatives 1 and 2, although the driveway volumes are relatively low, the
high volumes on ClAI{ 18 may cause left turning vehicles entering or exiting
the site to F+vpr rim considerable delay while waiting
for a gap in the
mainline traffic. This, considered along with the 50 mph speed limit and
the accident history on C,AH 18, suggests that ame. to the site via the
driveways to CSAH 18 be limited to right-in/right-out movements only.
However, should full access be allowed at this point, it should be
allowed
111(

111
at only one of the driveways to eliminate rcible safety hazards caused by
the combination of closely spaced left-turn movements and the high mainline
speeds.
I
As Alternative 3 proposes, it is expected that acrnac could be provided to
the site through the existing parking lot of the Preserve Village Center
without seriously impacting lot circulation. The lot's existing layout
lends itself to an acrrrncc drive around the east side of the lot, as this
circulation pattern is already being utilized. An example of how the drive
:tight be configured is sketched in Figure 10. Because of the relatively low
111 volume of site traffic utilizing this access, physical separation of the
111 drive from the parking lot is not required. However, it is reconnexied that
the lanes be clearly striped and that islands be constructed on the ends of
111 the rows (see Figure 10) to help delineate the travel path. It is expected
that a design of this nature would require the loss of 15 to 25 parking
sparrc, depending on the final configuration.
1
Driveways
I
Whichever alternative is implemented, consideration should be given to
eliminating one of the site driveways. Bemuse of the low volume of site
traffic, both are not required for good ac ' s, and elimination of one would
simplify ingress and egress. Furthermore, the space saved would be
available for additional parking or other use.

If either Alternative 2 or 3 is i^z1o.:ntsd, it will to noc^_scar' to 7rovort
vehicles from raking left turns in or out of the site to CSAH 18 at least
one of the driveways. This can be accomplished by the use of a triangular
channelizing island. A sketch of how this might be applied .o the southern
drive is shown on Figure 11.

denial by the Planning Commission because of the inconsistency with the
Comprehensive Guide Plan; no compelling reasons were provided to substantiate the
change; an effective transition to adjoining single family uses was not provided; no
hardships were identified to justify the variance_ request; the project lid not meet
the minimum londscapinq „nd ;rr„eoino ,-equ;rements per CityCode; nod h
as proposed was not consistent with the development w ment framework the site planrk conditions.
The current development request is different from the 1933 proposal. It includes
approximately P acres of land to the north. The development request is for mini-
storage, a daycare, and an office building.
Comprehensive Guide Plan Change
Since this site is small, the decision to change the Comprehensive Guide Plan is not
so much a question of the overall Guide Plan balance in the community, but rather it
is a site specific question of what land uses may he appropriate and under what
conditions should these uses he allowed to develop. Since this site is adjacent
County Road 013 and near existing commercial uses in Eden Prairie and Bloomington,
it is understandable that the City would experience development requests for uses
other than Low Density Residential. This is not an indication that Low Density
Residential is an incorrect land use, but en indication of current market demands.
By reaffirming the Comprehensive Guide Plan in response to each Guide Plan Chance
request, the market should eventually reflect that Low Density Residential is the
highest and best use for this site as determined by the City. However, considering
that the housing market is strong throughout Eden Prairie, the supply of developable
desirable sites is high and competition of other available lots is high, it may he
some time hefore this site would develop as Low Density Residential.
If it is determined that uses other than Low Density Residential are appropriate on
this property, a determination of the type of use and intensity of land use must he
made. Although the Planning Commission indicated that an office use on the Suburban
Bank site might be acceptable, the project was denied because the site plan was too
intense and the transition to the single family homes was not effective. The
Commission indicated that a less intense, one-story office building, with a
residential character would be appropriate. This may suggest that low intensity
one-story office buildings with a residential character and an effective transition
could be an alternative land use for this site. The daycare center and the office
buildings proposed at low FAR's could he considered consistent with the original
direction by the Planning Commission for land use adjacent to residential .
If it is determined that industrial (mini-storage) is acceptable as a land use
adjacent to residential, the Commission should consider the intensity of the
proposed use. The 1938 Staff Report discussed development intensity as part of a
development framework which outlined conditions under which uses other than Low
Density Residential could develop in the area. The decision to change the Guide
Plan would he based on how favorably the land uses would compare to these
development conditions. Since the development of the overall development framework
in 1998, the City has adopted the site plan ordinance. The site plan ordinance
requires a transition where there are differences in land use, building mass height,
density, and intensity through increased setbacks, herming, plantings, larger lot
-izes, lower densities, lower Floor Area Ratios, and smaller buildings. The
.ecision to change the Guide Plan to Industrial is dependent on how effective the
site plan mitigate the differences in land use.
Public Storage 3 ;entemher 22, 1989
( Site Plan
The site plan is a combination of three land uses. A 7,600 square Foot office
building on Lot 3, an 8,000 square toot daycare renter on Lot 2, and 51,500 square
feet or mini-staran^ and office uses on proposed Lot 1. The office building on •
proposed Lot 3 is being developed at a 0.19 Floor Area Ratio (FAR). The office
zoning district would allow up to a 0.1 FAR. A total of 38 parking spaces are
required for the office building, 40 parking spaces are provided on site. There
will be a parking setback variance For the 6 parking spaces south of the office
huilding.
Proposed Lot 2 for the daycare center will he developed at a FAR of 0.20. Buiidi^a
and parking areas meet the minimum setback requirements per Code. The neighborhood
commercial zoning district will allow up to a 0.2 FAR. A total of 40 spaces are
provided on proposed Lot 2 and should he adequate for a daycare center needs. Half
of the parking spares are provided immediately adjacent to the building with a sidewalk which should allow for children to he walked to the daycare center entrance
without crossing traffic.
The buildings proposed on Lot 3 for the mini-storage are to he developed at a FAR of
0.48 and a Base Area Ratio !BAR) of 0.30. The original request was For a 0.38 BAR.
The I-7 zoning district would permit up to a 0.5 FAR for multiple story buildings
and a 0.3 BAR. Building and parking areas meet the minimum setback requirements per
Code. The rear yard setback is 60 feet whereas the previous plan was 25 feet. A
total of 30 parking spaces are needed for the office portion of the mini-storage
building which are provided for on the site plan. Required parking for the mini-
•
storage is based upon the size of the manager apartment, or 5 parkinc spaces. The
additional parking on-site is ahove the City Code requirements.
Transition
The site plan ordinance requires transitions where there are differences in land
use, building mass, height, densities, and site intensities. The ordinance indicates
that transitions may be accomplished by increased setbacks, berming, plantings,
larger lot sizes, lower densities, lower FAR's, and smaller buildings. The site
plan, as proposed, does not provide an adequate transition to the single family
homes. There is a considerable difference in building mass and site density in
relation to the single family homes. The site plan, as proposed, does not fully
mitigate the impacts. While the setback on the mini-storage site at FO feet is
greater than the 25-foot rear yard setback per Code, the existing single family
homes sit at a higher elevation and proposed herming and plantings will not he able
to mitigate the views into the project. As recommended in the previous Staff
Report, lower BAR's could provide a better transition. Staff has previously
recommended to the proponent to develop the mini-storage site at a 0.25 FAR. This
would result in smaller buildings and more green area on the mini-storage site.
This would also provide additional room for a larger buffer zone within which larger
and additional trees could be planted.
•
Grading and Tree Loss
j The entire site will be graded to accommodate the development as proposed. A total
308 out of a total of 342 caliper inches of significant trees will he lost due to
construction or 00". tree loss, which is considerably above the 32", average of
projects to date. Tree replacement would he 308 caliper inches.
Puhl is Storage 1 Tnpterrher 12, l092
t
Landscapinj
The aeuunt of landscaping required for this project would he based upon a caliper
inch requirement related to building square footage, screening of parking areas from
County Road #13, and tree replacement. The amount of caliper inches required
according to the caliper inch requirement and tree replacement would be 55q irrhes.
The landscape plan depicts a total at 1?0 inches. An additional 130 caliper inches
are needed on-site to meet City requirements, additional planting could he helpful
in a larger transition area.
Due to storm drainage ponds proposed adjacent to County Road #13, it will e
possible to construct a berm to screen parking. The amount and type of landscaping
proposed is not adequate to screen the parking areas per City Code and additional
landscaping and/or fencing will he necessary to meet the City Code requirement.
Since a sanitary sewer line is proposed to he constructed on the west side of t::e
office and daycare buildings, proposed landscaping cannot he planted within this
area. It is recommended that the sanitary sewer line he relocated to the front of
the building in the parking lot. •
Utilities
Sewer and water service is available to this site by connection to utilities in t'
Preserve Village Center. Since these utilities are private, an agreement will he
necessary between both parties. Water service provided to this site is a long dead-
end watermain. To create a watermain loop in the area, it is recommended that a
connection he made to the existing water lines either on Garrison Way or Clark
Circle. This not only provides a benefit for the commercial uses with this
proposal , but provides for better fire protection for the surrounding single family
homes.
Signs
Sign information is provided for the New Horizon Daycare and Public Storage project
only, no sign detail has been submitted for the office building. All three sites
should utilize the same design and materials for the proposed monument signs.
Building Architecture
The site plan ordinance requires compatibility with other uses and structures in the
vicinity in terms of materials, colors, textures, and construction details. One way
to achieve this would he for all buildings to utilize a pitched roof with the same
exterior materials and colors. Exterior materials and colors have heen indentified
for the Public Storage building. No colors or materials have heen identified for
the other buildings.
The exterior building elevations for the proposed daycare center do not meet the
City Code requirement for a minimum of 75i facehrick and glass.
Mechanical equipment is proposed to he ground mounted to the rear of the huildings
facing the residential areas. All mechanical equipment should he contained inside
of the huildings.

Traffic
The City commissioned Barton-Aschman and Associates to conduct a traffic study which
analyzed proposed impart to the project on adjacent roads and intersections. The
traffic study concludes that proposed site traffic will not have a significant
impact on the operation of the intersection of County Road 413 and Anderson Lakes
Parkway. It is recommended that proposers site driveways on County Road 413 be
restricted to right-in/right-out movements because of the high traffic volume on
County Road #18, the speed limit is 50 MPH, and the accident history in the area.
An additional access through to the site through the existing Preserve Village
Center parking lot should he provided. This drive would need to he clearly
delineated with traffic paint, and several end islands would need to be added in
order to not adversely impact the parking lot circulation.
The site plan, as proposed, provides for a cross-access into the Preserve Village
•
Mall and proposes two right-in/right-out access points on County Road 418. The
northern driveway with right-in/right-out access i5 designed according to the
traffic engineer's criteria. The southern right-in/right-out access does not meet
this criteria and will not prohibit left turn access in and out of the site. If
right-in/right-out access is designed according to the traffic engineer's
recommendation, there will not he enough distance between the two right-in/right-
out's for traffic to move efficiently on County Road ills; therefore, access to this
site should be limited to one right-in/right-out access on County Road ills and full
access provided through the Preserve Village parking lot until such time that County
Road 411 is upgraded and a service road is created from Anderson Lakes Parkway to •
County Road hi.
Site Lighting
The site lighting proposed for the project should he downcast cut-off luminars and
limited in height to a 200-foot maximum height. There should be a site lighting plan
with details submitted which depicts the location of the sites, standards, and the
amount of wattage. Site lightin3 for all 1 sites must he coordinated. 14a1l pack
lights will not he permitted.
Trash Enclosures
Trash enclosures would he visible from adjoining residential areas. Trash
enclosures should he constructed out of facebrick and have a roof on top to block
•
the views from higher elevations.
Preliminary Plat
The preliminary plat depicts the subdivision of 5.3 acres into 1 lots. Roth
industrial lots meets the requirements of the 1-2 Park zoning district, The
proposed lot for the office building meets the minimum requirements of the off ice
ir zoning district. The proposed lot for the daycare center does not meet the minimum
?-acre requirement for lot size in the neighborhood commercial zoning district and a
variance will be required. in addition, because of the common lot lines between the
projects, there will he parking setback variances required.

Conclusions
This is a small site and the decision to change the Plan is a site specific
question of what land uses may he appropriate and the conditions of these uses which
fits in hest with the surrounding single family uses. If it is determined that the
proposal is not the highest and best use, then denial would be the appropriate
action. If the Commission feels the site is transitional , then the decision to
change the Guide Plan would he dependent not only upon the ,use hut on the success of
the site o1.e• in mitigating .'^pa en 7..r oTh, s+ogle family uses.
There are two land uses which are alternatives to low density residential which may
work on this site. Developing this 5.3-acre site for single story, low profile,
residential character, office buildings at a low BAR with substantial setbacks and
buffer zones could fit in next to residential .
A second alternative for land use on this site would he to consider the mini-
storage, daycare, and office building, with the following revisions:
1. Revise the site plan to lower the 3A1 to 0.25 for the mini-storage site.
2. Revise the driveway access to permit one right-in/right-out access on County
Road 4418 and access through the Preserve Village Stall parking lot.
3. All buildings must he constructed of similar exterior materials. This would
include the same color shingles, brick, and trim. All mechanical equipment
must be stored inside of the building. Revise the exterior building
elevations for the daycare to meet the City ordinance requirements. Trash
enclosures should be dnsignnd with a roof enclosure to block views from the
adjoining single family homes or within each building.
4. Modify the landscape plan to provide an additional 150 caliper inches of
tree replacement. Revise the landscape plan to screen the parking areas
from County Road #18.
STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS
Following are alternative courses of action for Commission consideration:
1. If the Planning Commission feels that uses other than Low Density
Residential can work on this property subject to an appropriate transition
being created adjacent to the single family homes, then one option would be
to recommend that the development plans he returned to the proponent for
revision according to the following criteria:
A. Revise the site plan to lower the BAR to n,ns for the mini-storage
site.
B. Revise the driveway access to permit one right-in/right-out access
on County Road #11 and access through the Preserve Village Mall
parking lot.
C. All projects must he constructed of the same exterior materials.
This would include the same color shingles, brick, and trim. All

D. Modify the landscape plan to provide an additional 150 caliper

2. If the Planning Commission feels that compelling reasons have not been given
for substantiating the change in the Comprehensive Guide Plan to Office,
Neighborhood Commercial, and Industrial, then one option would he to
recommend denial for the following reasons:
A. The inconsistency with the Comprehensive Guide Plan. No compelling
reasons have been provided to substantiate the change.
B. An effective transition to the adjoining single family uses has not
been made to mitigate the impacts of higher intensity uses.
C. The site plan as proposed is inconsistent with the guidelines of the
site plan ordinance.
D. The project does not meet the landscape requirements for screening
of parking areas.
E. The project does not meet City Code for exterior materials for the

Uram reported that Staff recommended approval of the
project based on the Staff recommendations outlined in the
Staff Report dated November 24, 1989. Uram added that the
signage band would need to be reviewed further and that
Staff's recommendation was that the signage be similar to
that of the Lariat Center. A grading agreement would need
to be submitted.
Ruebling asked if further detail was necessary regarding
the :ignage prior to approval. Flaherty replied that the
proponent would continue to work with Staff. He added
that the key issue was to provide uniformity.
Ruebling asked if the back of the building would face the

the number of extras provided.
Putnam questioned Orin Thompson's decision to provide
single-family homes along County Road 5 and added that the
proponent needed more detail from Orin Thompson on what it
was actually proposing and the actual grades. Putnam
noted that one of the problems in changing its plan was
•
that the road connections had to be made with Orin
Thompson's plan.
Sandstad believed that the number of units in the medium

Bauer recommended that the proponent consider a play area
for the children. Putnam replied that the proponent had
proposed to the City to dedicate a 6 acre neighborhood
park; however, the Parks, Recreation .S Natural Resources
department had plans for another site and preferred the
payment of Cash Park Fees instead of the dedication of the
park. Putnam believed that this location would have been
a good park site for the Orin Thompson development as soil
as the proposed development.
Ruebiiny recommended that the proponent consider the
construction of smaller units for lots 1 through 4.

Norm Brody, representing the proponent, stated that after
the negotiating the lease with Ciatti's in 1938, the
search for a second anchor tenant had been unsuccessful
until Franks Nursery approached the proponent. Franks
Nursery is a national retailer with over 260 stores
throughout the country. Brody believed that Franks
Nursery would fill a void in the malor center area for
this type of retail development. Brody stated that with
Franks as the second anchor the project could not be
completed.
Paul Struthers, representing the proponent, stated that
three major issues were taken into consideration when
preparing the plans:
1. The site was visible on three sides.
2. The need to respond to the presence of Ciatti's.
3. The need to provide adequate space for Franks
Nursery to be able to successfully operate its
business.
Struthers stated that the cut for the berm would be filled
in and trees planted to provide screening. The building
would be placed on the corner and would act as a screen.
A link would be provided between Ciatti's and Franks
Nursery via a walkway. The berm would screen the daily
activities. The trash areas for both Ciatti's and Franks
Nursery would be enclosed. The Franks Nursery national
prototype building had been modified to integrate with
Ciatti's. A wrought iron fence would section off tine
outdoor storage area. The meters and mechanical equipment
would be adequately screened.
Sandstad asked if the proponent was aware that the City
j.
Council was encouraging outdoor storage to be developed
outside of the major center area. Struthers replied yes.
Jim Cleary, representing Franks Nursery, stated that the .
site was very important to Franks Nursery and everything

Site Plan
The site plan depicts a 29,500 square foot retail building on a
3.5 acre site designated as Lot 1, Block 1, Preserve Commercial
Park North 2nd Addition. The tenant mix proposed includes a 5,370
square foot restaurant and 24, 130 square feet of retail space.
Based upon a site size of 3.58 acres, a Base Area Ratio and Floor
Area Ratio of 18.9% has been calculated.
In the C-Regional-Service Zoning District, the minimum setbacks
include a 35 foot front yard setback, 20 foot side yard setback,
and 10 foot rear yard setback. The building and parking areas meet
the minimum requirements of the C-Regional-Service Zoning District.
Because the site is a corner lot, parking is allowed to come within
one half of the front yard setback or 17.5 feet on one frontage.
The plans indicate that the 17.5 Eoot setback would be maintained
on Commonwealth Drive and a 35 foot setback along Prairie Center
Drive.
Customer access into thsi project will be provided by a right-
in/right-out on Prairie Center Drive and a full access on
Commonwealth Drive. Truck access is provided in alignment with the
proposed centerline of future Columbine Road. Ultimately, this
may become a full access shared with the adjacent property owner
to the north. A joint access easement has been indicated on the
plans to allow Eor this to occur.
Based upon 24,130 square feet of retail space and a restaurant
containing 120 seats, a total of 185 parking stalls are required
and indicated on the plans.
Traffic
The approved Preserve Commercial Park North (Area G) PUD indicated
a PM peak hour trip generation total of 740 trips. This
development would generate approximately 119 PM peak hour trips. •
With 6 acres of vacant land remaining developed as commercial at
a 20% B.A.R., approximately 136 PM peak hour trips may be
generated. Overall, the PUD would generate approximately 598 PM
peak hour trips, or a 20% reduction from the approved PUD.
GradingLUtilities
Elevations on this site range from a high point of 878 along the
north property line to a low point of 846 in the southwest corner
of the site. Based upon a finished floor elevation of 850,
approximately 30 feet of cut must occur along the north property
line with grading proposed off-site. In conjunction with a 6-foot
retaining wall, grading will extend off-site approximately 15 feet
to achieve a 3 to 1 slope. In order to grade the project as
proposed, grades on the adjacent property must be lowered 18 feet.
Prior to 2nd reading of the City Council, the proponent shall
submit an agreement with the adjacent property owner to allow
grading off-site. Minimal fill is required throughout the
remainder of the project.
( In order to screen parking areas from Prairie Center Drive and
Commonwealth Drive, a series of small berms are proposed. Staff
is recommending that the grading plan be revised to reflect maximum
berm heights at a 3 to 1 slope along both street frontages.
Landscaping )
Based upon a building size of 29,500 square feet, a total of 66 t
caliper inches of landscape material is required per City Code `
which includes 74 caliper inches of tree replacement. The proposed
landscape plan depicts 84 caliper inches. The landscape plan shall
be revised to reflect an additional 82 caliper inches of plant
material located specifically to help screen parking areas from
Prairie Center Drive and Commonwealth Drive.
Architecture
t.
The single story retail center has been designed with an 8 foot
metal canopy over approximately 214 feet of the front building
elevation, planter boxes, columns, and stepped building elevations
in both front and rear to add interest to the building. The rear
of the building includes a trash area which will be completely t'.
enclosed. A minimum 6 foot sidewalk will be extended along the
entire front of the building.
Th
e 110 feet wide by 363 feet lo g a d building is 8 mfeet rins hepight. Tely
he
primary building materials include face brick, glass, stucco and
a standing seam metal canopy. In conjunction with an overall
signage plan, the building elevations shall be revised to reflect
a designated sign band.
Pedestrian Systems
As part of the overall pedestrian system in this area an 8 foot
bituminous trail exists along the east side of Prairie Center
Drive. A 5 foot concrete sidewalk will be constructed as part of
this project along the north side of Commonwealth Drive.
Sign/Lighting
The proponent shall submit an overall signage plan which includes
criteria for size, style, proportion, color and lcoation on the
building. The signage plan shall be provided prior to City Council
review. Lighting within the parking lot shall be 20 foot downcast
luminars.

SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS
A 29,700 square foot retail/commercial development called Alpine •
Center has been proposed on 3.56 acres, located north o:
Commonwealth Drive and east of Prairie Center Drive.
• The purpose of this report is to document the results of a
traffic study conducted for the proposed center. The study
included the following work tasks:
. Review of existing and future transportation facilities and
traffic patterns.
. Analysis of potential public and private access to Prairie
Center Drive between Commonwealth Drive and Singletree Lane.
. Review of internal circulation and access for the proposed
retail/commercial center.
Of critical importance in the review of access to the proposed
Alpine Center is the planned extension of Columbine Road to •
intersect with Prairie Center Drive from the west at
approximately the north property line of the proposed
development. The design of this intersection also impacts the
traffic operation of Prairie Center Drive. Three design
alternatives for this intersection were considered:
Alternative I--Columbine Road intersecting Prairie Center Drive
from the west with no median break.
Alternative 2--Columbine Road intersecting Prairie Center Drive
from the west with a full median cut, but not extending to the
east.
Alternative 3--Columbine Road intersecting Prairie Center Drive
from the west with a full median cut and extending to the east
from Prairie Center Drive.
Alternative 1 described above has more frequent driveways, but
fewer left turn and crossing movements than the others. It would
also, however, promote U-turns because of numerous driveways with
restricted turning movements. The use of Columbine as a
collector street would also be limited because of restricted
movements at Prairie Center Drive. Restricted movements would
particularly be a problem if Columbine were used to access the
Purgatory Creek Recreation Area as planned. This alternative
would not require major revisions to the proposed Alpine Center
site plan.
1 1
Alternative 2 would result in increases in both left turns and
U-turns because of an additional median break and new driveways;
however, the use of Columbine would be improved because it would
have full access at Prairie Center Drive. This alternative would •
require potentially major revisions of the proposed Alpine Center
site plan to avoid conflicts of the driveway traffic with the
Columbine intersection traffic.
Alternative 3 would add one full intersection, but limit
interference from driveways. In this alternative, Columbine
would provide a good connection between the Major Center Area and
ether parts of Eden Prairie. If connected to Regional Center
Road, it would also provide an alternative to Singletree Lane for
many vehicles, reducing the volume on Singletree. This would be
an important component of the potential downtown concept centered
on Singletree Lane because lower traffic volumes would improve
the environment for pedestrians. Lower traffic volumes would •
also allow on-street parking on Singletree to be considered as
part of the downtown plan. The Columbine/Regional Center
connection would provide a good alternate route if activities
such as street fairs and parades were held on Singletree.
Alternative 3 would also provide vehicles an opportunity to avoid
the T.H. 169 and T.H. 5/future T.H. 212 intersections, which are
projected to be heavily congested in the future unless major
improvements are undertaken. This alternative would, however,
require major revisions of the proposed Alpine Center because of
the elimination of driveways which are planned to access Prairie
Center Drive directly.
Of the three alternatives studied, Alternative 1 (no median break
at Columbine Road) and Alternative 3 (full intersection and
extension of Columbine Road to the east) would provide the best
mobility for traffic on Prairie Center Drive. They also provide
the driver with the most consistent design features.
Alternative 3 is recommended, however, because it would also help
to improve traffic conditions on congested portions of Prairie
Center Drive, satisfy property access needs and complement the
•
planned downtown concept along Singletree Lane.
Although the alternative recommended above would require major
revisions to the proposed Alpine Center site plan, the following
recommended improvements to the current site plan are noted and
described in more detail in the report:
. Revised driveway widths and radii.
. Modified alignment in front of the center of the building.
. Removal of parking spaces in conflict areas.
. Driveway revisions to inhibit illegal turns.

INTRODUCTION
A 29,700 square toot retail/commercial development called Alpine
Center has been proposed on 3.56 acres, located north of
Commonwealth Drive and east of Prairie Center Drive. The project
location is shown in Figure 1.
• The purpose of this report is to document the results of a
traffic study conducted for the proposed center. The study
included the following work tasks:
. Review of existing and future transportation facilities and
traffic patterns.
. Analysis of potential public and private access to Prairie
Center Drive between Commonwealth Drive and Singletree Lane.
. Review of internal circulation and access for the proposed
retail/commercial center.
The study did not include the development of trip generation data
or traffic forecasts; however, some general traffic forecasts R'
were available from the "Major Center Area Traffic Study"
complet_d in December of 1933. This report, prepared for the
City of Eden Prairie, includes year 2010 daily traffic forecasts
in the entire Major Center Area for several land use and street
network scenarios.
Another report, titled "Ideas and Concepts for Eden Prairie
Downtown Development", also provided information for the current
study. The downtown concept presented in the report is to
establish a "gathering place" for the community. The area would
have a single architectural theme, and pedestrian movement would
be given high priority in order to make the area attractive for
shopping, street fairs, festivals, parades, etc. The core
downtown area would be approximately 100 acres centered on
Singletree Lane with possible expansion to other properties. The
City Council supports the downtown concept; however, the
marketplace does not appear to be favorable for its development
at the present time.
TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES
Existing Street System
The proposed Alpine Center is located on Commonwealth Drive and
Prairie Center Drive. Commonwealth Drive is a local street which
is approximately 44 feet wide. It connects Prairie Center Drive
with Regional Center Road, providing direct access to adjacent
properties.

Prairie Center Drive is a four-lane, divided, minor arterial
street. In the vicinity of the project there are median breaks
at Commonwealth Drive and Singletree Lane. Traffic signals are '
currently located at T.H. 169 and T.H. 5.
The functional classifi ::ions of these and other streets in the
study area are shown in Figure 2. Functional classification
defines the type of service that a roadway is intended to
provide. It also is frequently used as a basis for defining
design standards to .- . . _.. ;ed.
1987 daily traffic vol '..=_s for streets in the study area are
shown in Figure 3. These are based on the traffic flow maps
prepared by the Minnesota Department of Transportation. '

Future Street System
Year 201C daily traffic volume forecasts from the 1988 "Major
Center Area Traffic St::_ " are shown in Figure 4. The ranges
given represent the various scenarios presented in the report.
Some of the scenarios ass.:ned improvements to the street network.
These were primarily grade separation at major intersections,
such as the T.H. 5 (future T.H. 212)/Prairie Center Drive
interchange. The current design concept for this interchange
would require the relocation of the west leg of Technology Drive
approximately 1,000 fee: further south. The east leg of
( Technology Drive would remain in its present location.
The City is also const_uctiog a new collector street called
Columbine Road between Anderson Lakes Parkway and Prairie Center
Drive west of T.H. 169, as shown in Figures 3 and 4. The portion {
from Anderson Lakes Parkway to just north of Fountain Place has
been completed. The extension of Columbine to the north would
intersect Prairie Center Drive along the south edge of the
Flagship Athletic Club property. t
} Another planned improvement in the study area is the Purgatory
Creek Recreation Area located west of Prairie Center Drive. The
concept plan for the area shows the major access point to the
park from Prairie Center Drive 1,000 feet south of the present
location of Technology Drive. This is approximately the same i
place that Technology Drive would be relocated to, with the
construction of an interchange at Prairie Center Drive and T.H. 5 t
(future T.H. 212). Another entrance and parking for 300 cars is
anticipated to have access from the future extension of Columbine
Road.

EVALUATION CRITERIA
Access Considerations
Roadways provide two basic functions: mobility and access.
Higher classes of roadways, principal, intermediate and minor
arterials, place greater importance on the mobility function
while lower classes of roadways, collectors and local streets,
place more importance on property access. The relationship
between mobility, access and functional classification is shown
in Figure 5.
Unfortunately, the two basic roadway functions are usually in
opposition, creating the major source of vehicle conflicts. Fcr
instance, roadways with frequent driveways provide a high degree
of access, but movement in and out of the driveways hinders
through-traffic movement on the major street. As driveways and
other intersections become less frequent, through-traffic moves
more efficiently, but property access becomes more inconvenient.
As was shown in Figure 5, minor arterials such as Prairie Center
Drive, function about midway between a cul-de-sac which only
provides property access (no through-traffic allowed) and a
freeway which has no direct property access. This means that
minor arterials must be designed to balance the functions of
mobility and access. The following characteristics are typical
of minor arterials:
• Access allowed at public streets and selected major traffic
generators.
• One-quarter mile minimum traffic signal spacing.
. Speeds between 35 and 45 miles per hour.
. No on-street parking.
Intersection Spacing
The spacing of intersections is important to the operation of
arterials for several reasons. Relatively long, uniform spacing
of signalized intersections (1/4 to 1/2 mile) allows the best
coordination between traffic signals and promotes efficient
through-traffic movement. Adequate separation of decision points
(i.e. , driveways and intersections) improves safety. At 40 miles
per hour, if driveways are placed closer than 300 feet apart the
driver would be required to watch for traffic at more than one
driveway at a time, while monitoring the cars ahead and keeping
control over his own vehicle. Spacings greater than 300 feet
reduce the amount of information that must be processed at once,
simplifying the driving task and improving safety.

Also, reduction in speed differential between through traffic and
turning traffic has been shown to improve safety. The method for
achieving this, particularly at unsignalized intersections is to
provide adequate acceleration and deceleration lanes at access
points. Institute of Transportation Engineer guidelines indicate
that a 300 foot spacing between driveways allows provision of
acceleration/deceleration lanes resulting in a speed differential
of 12 to 16 miles per hour. Based on American Society of State
Highway and Transportation Officials Guidelines, over 1,000 feet
would be needed to eliminate speed differential completely. j
I
ALTERNATIVE EVALUATION
i
For this study it has been assumed that Columbine Road will be extended to the north to intersect with Prairie Center Drive.
The extended Columbine would serve new multi-family residential development and may also provide access to the Purgatory Creek
Recreation Area as shown in the current concept plan. Three I design alternatives for the intersection have been considered: �'
Alternative l--Columbine Road intersecting Prairie Center Drive 1 from the west with no median break. i-
Alternative 2--Columbine Road intersecting Prairie Center Drive
from the west with a full median cut, but not extending to the•
east.
Alternative 3--Columbine Road intersecting Prairie Center Drive
from the west with a full median cut and extending to the east
from Prairie Center Drive. f
One important aspect of Columbine Road is that it would provide a 1
connection between the Major Center Area and other parts of Eden
Prairie. While the Prairie Center Drive/Valley View Road ring
road provides good circulation through the Major Center Area, the
1 ability to connect the street network to the rest of the City is
limited by numerous geographic features such as the Purgatory
Creek floodplain. Columbine Road would also provide a good
opportunity to avoid congestion on T.H. 169 which is likely to
continue despite the current reconstruction.
(
11
Alternative 1
Ir
The first intersection alternative is a fairly uncommon
situation. Intersections of two public streets usually allow
full turning movements between them, although exceptions , ;
sometimes occur on arterials that are planned to be upgraded to ,4
freeways. For example. median openings at many access points
along T.H. 12 were closed prior to its conversion to 1-394;
however, streets are not usually originally planned to operate
with only partial access.
Access Considerations:
In this alternative, vehicles northbound on Columbine would be
able to go east on Prairie Center Drive, but the reverse movement
would have to be made either by turning south on T.H. 169 or
making a U-turn at Singletree Lane. Likewise vehicles southbound
on Prairie Center Drive would be able to turn right onto
Columbine, but the return movement would be made by either
another route or a U-turn. This situation tends to be confusing
drivers who are unfamiliar with the area and increases turning •
movements (U-turns) on the arterial street. Deceleration and
acceleration lanes provided on southbound Prairie Center Drive
would minimize the disruption of through traffic by entering and
exiting vehicles.
In this alternative with no median break, properties west of
f Prairie Center Drive would have direct access to Columbine Road
6 and additional driveway access directly to Prairie Center Drive
would probably not be needed for development of these properties.
Properties on the east side of Prairie Center Drive between
Commonwealth and Singletree would have less opportunity to access
public streets other than Prairie Center Drive. Requests for
driveway access, with cr without median breaks, are likely to •
1 occur as the properties develop. For example, the currently
proposed development of Alpine Center includes two restricted
movement driveways on Prairie Center Drive.
1
1 In this alternative right-in, right-out driveways to northbound
Prairie Center Drive would significantly increase the number of
U-turns on Prairie Center Drive. These will be very slow,
difficult movements for large trucks which will be traveling to
and from the commercial properties.
i
12
i.
1
Intersection Spacing:
, In this alternative (no median break at Columbine) the driveways
shown on the Alpine Center site plan would probably remain as •
proposed. Although the spacing between the two driveways to
Prairie Center Drive is only approximately 160 feet, the
northerly driveway would be restricted to inbound vehicles and
would probably not be heavily used. There would also be adequate
distance between the Alpine Center site and Singletree Lane for
one additional right-in, right-out driveway when that property
develops.
In this alternative, a signal would probably be placed at
Singletree Lane in the future (slightly less than 1/2 mile
spacing) , with the potential for future signals at Commonwealth
and the relocated Technology Drive depending on future traffic
volumes (slightly less than 1/4 mile spacing). Depending on
future traffic volumes, either set of signal spacing would
probably allow for good progression on Prairie Center Drive.
Alternative 2
The second alternative would provide full access between
Columbine Road (west of Prairie Center Drive) and Prairie Center
•
Drive. In this case, Columbine would provide a good connection
between the ring road system and other parts of Eden Prairie. It
would also provide an alternative to T.H. 169 for shorter trips
to/from Anderson Lakes Parkway. Prairie Center Drive would be
used for part of most trips made on Columbine.
Access Considerations:
The full median cut would introduce interference by Columbine
Road traffic turning onto both northbound and southbound Prairie
Center Drive. Although traffic forecasts are not available for
Columbine Road, it is likely that the intersection would meet a
warrant for signalization in the future. With forecast daily
•
volumes on Prairie Center Drive between 13,000 and 17,000, a
volume of 250 peak hour vehicles on the Columbine approach to the
•
intersection, or approximately 4,000 to 5,000 vehicles per day on
Columbine Road would meet the peak hour volume warrant for
signalization.
In this alternative, properties west of Prairie Center Drive
would again have direct access to Columbine Road. Columbine
traffic would be able to go to/from both northbound and
southbound Prairie Center Drive. Properties east of Prairie
Center Drive with less access to public streets, would probably
request direct driveway access to Prairie Center Drive. Because
the Columbine Road intersection would have a median break,
driveways should not be located within 350 feet upstream and 300
feet downstream of the intersection under this alternative.
I
13
In this alternative, right-in, right-out driveways to northbound
Prairie Center Drive would significantly increase the number -
U-turns on Prairie Center Drive. These will be very slow,
difficult movements for large trucks which will be traveling to
and from the commercial properties.
•
Intersection Spacing:
In Alternative 2, the northerly driveway shown on the Alpine
Center site plan would interfere with the Columbine Road •
intersection and should be eliminated. In addition, the proposed
right-in, right-out driveway should be relocated approximately 50
feet south to allow some additional room for vehicles to enter
• Prairie Center Drive and change lanes to turn left or make a
U-turn at Columbine Road. Although this movement will be
difficult to make during periods of heavy traffic, it would also
be nearly impossible to prohibit. The addition of an
acceleration lane at the driveway would help to reduce the speed
differential between entering and through traffic. There would
also be adequate distance to provide a future right-in, right-out
driveway between the proposed Alpine Center and Singletree Lane
as the property develops.
In this alternative, future signals could be placed at Columbine
and at the relocated Technology Drive intersection. If
Technology Drive were located an additional 300 to 400 feet
further south than currently planned, the signals would be at
approximately 1/4 mile intervals providing good progression.
Alternative 3
The third alternative would provide a four-legged intersection at
Columbine Road and Prairie Center Drive. Columbine would
probably be extended to the east to connect with Regional Center
Road.
Access Considerations:
This alternative would not only provide a connection to areas
outside the Major Center Area for traffic from Prairie Center
Drive, but also to/from areas within the ring road, in particular
the planned downtown area along Singletree Lane. Regional Center
Road would connect Columbine to T.H. 169 and an Eden Prairie
Center entrance.
This alternative would probably attract more trips to Columbine
Road. As a result, the Columbine/Prairie Center Drive
intersection would likely be meeting a peak hour volume signal
warrant some time in the future.
14
Because this alternative would increase the availability or
access to public streets other than Prairie Center Drive,
1, additional driveway access to Prairie Center Drive should not be
•
needed or allowed. This alternative would require major
revisions of the proposed Alpine Center site plan.
Intersection Spacing:
•
In the third alternative, the Columbine Road/Prairie Center Drive
intersection would be a four legged intersection. No additional
direct access would be recommended between Commonwealth Drive and
Singletree Lane. The reduced number of restricted right-in,
right-out access points would reduce lane changing and U-turns.
Two patterns of signalization would be possible under this
alternative. Signals could be placed at Commonwealth, Singletree
and the relocated Technology Drive intersections which would
result in slightly less than 1/4 mile spacing. Alternately,
signals could be placed at Columbine Road and the relocated
Technology Drive. This 1/4 mile spacing would result in one less
signal, but for the best progression Technology Drive should be
relocated about 400 feet further south than currently planned.
•
The signalization pattern to be used would depend on future
•
traffic volumes.
SITE CIRCULATION AND ACCESS
A review of the proposed site circulation and access has revealed
a number of concerns which are highlighted on Figure 6. The most
significant of these concerns involves a very severe jog in the
•
east-west drive directly in front of the building. This jog will
make the passing of on-coming vehicles extremely difficult. It
would be possible to correct this condition by revising the
raised island just west of this jog, and removing two parking
spaces as shown in the figure.
Driveway radii shown on the plan are 15 feet and should be
revised to comply with the City's typical 20 foot minimum radius.
Additionally, the one-way service drive entrance from Prairie
Center Drive should be revised to provide a 35 foot truck turning
radius and geometrics that inhibit the illegal turns at the
driveway. The truck turning radii on the service drive east of
the center building appear to be very tight and the curves should
be flattened if possible.
The one-way service drive is planned to operate in a clockwise
direction. In this case, when drivers make right-hand turns they
must rely on mirrors to see if they are clearing obstacles
because they cannot directly see the back of the truck. This
becomes even more critical if any backing up is required, because
15
•
the mirror of a tractor-trailer vehicle does not stay in
alignment with the vehicle and the driver must back up blindly.
The operation of this service drive should be reviewed carefully
to ensure that it meets the needs of the development.
The driveway serving the site from Commonwealth Drive will be the
most heavily used access point. A minimum width of 36 feet is
recommended to provide two lanes outbound and one lane inbound.
The three parking spaces just north and east of the driveway to
Commonwealth Drive should be omitted because use of these spaces
will require motorists to back into the driveway conflict area.
The driveway serving the site from northbound Prairie Center
Drive should be a minimum of 28 feet in width to provide one lane
in and one lane out.

1- AREA LOCATION MAP/
Site Plan/Preliminary Plat
The site plan depicts a subdivision of the 6.7 acre parcel into 14
single family lots. Lot sizes within the proposed subdivision
range from a minimum of 13,500 square feet to a maximum of 35,400
square feet. The average lot size is approximately 14,090 square
feet. All of the lots meet the minimum requirements of the R1-13.5
Zoning District.
Access to this site is provided by the extension of Country Road
•
and Claycross Way from the east to connect with Duck Lake Road.
Grading
Elevations on the site range from a high point of 934 in the
extreme southeast corner of the site to a low point of 896 within
Claycross Way along the northern property line. The site is
relatively level with minimal grading occurring including cut and
fill amounts of less than 10 feet.
The tree inventory indicates a total of 590 caliper inches of
significant tress on this site. Because of the location of the
road and the building pads, a total of 332 caliper inches of trees
will be removed. Based upon the Tree Preservation Policy, a total
of 248 caliper inches of trees shall be replaced. The proponent
shall provide a tree replacement plan prior to Council review.
Utilities
Water, sanitary sewer, and storm sewer are available to this site.
Connections for sanitary sewer and water would be made to an
existing 8-inch water main and an 8-inch sanitary sewer line within
Country Road and Claycross Way. These utilities will be extended
to connect to utilities located within Duck Lake Road.
Storm water runoff is proposed to be collected within a catch basin
system located throughout the street system and discharged into the
existing storm sewer system located within Country Glen 1st
Addition. Detailed storm water runoff, utility, and erosion
control plans shall be submitted for review by the Watershed
District and the City Engineer.
Pedestrian Systems
A 5 foot concrete sidewalk is proposed along the north side of
Country Road with a connection to Duck Lake Road. The proponent
will construct a sidewalk along the east side of Duck Lake Road
from its current terminus to the north property line.

M EMORAN D !U M
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: City Manager Carl J. Jullie i
SUBJECT: 1990 City Budget
DATE: December 15, 1989
As directed by the Council at the November 30, 1989 Budget Hearing, we have
prepared two new alternative scenarios for the proposed 1990 General Fund
expenditures. The attached tabulation shows for each program the following:
.. 1989 Amount
.. 1990 I The amounts total a zero percent (0%) increase in
total program expenditures over 1989.
.. 1990 II The amounts total a five percent (5%) increase in total
program expenditures over 1989.
.. 1990 III The amounts are the Manager's revised recommended totals
( % over 1989).
A narrative on the changes is provided followed by the line-item budget option
sheets.
•
The approach taken involved each department head submitting to me a listing of
incremental budget cuts amounting to 2D% of their respective programs. I
reviewed these, and based upon my judgement as to which reductions would have
the least impact on our overall service levels, I incorporated those changes
necessary to reach the 0% and 5% levels. The Manager's revised recommended
totals (1990 III) includes some changes from my original proposal. The most
substantive of these changes include deletion of the Purchasing/Accounting clerk
in the Finance Department (Page 24); deletion of the Park Planner in Parks
Administration at mid-year (Page 12), and deletion of the Communications
Coordinator position (Page 40). The duties of these positions will be absorbed
by existing staff.
We have recently reviewed our latest tax capacity data from Hennepin County.
Our new tax capacity rate is now estimated at 20.32%. This results in projected
City taxes being about 2% lower than we presented at the November 30 budget
hearing. It is interesting to note that without Fiscal Disparities our tax rate
would be 17% lower!
If the Council determines that some reductions from my recommended budget (1990
III) are necessary, I would strongly urge that these changes be only minor. In
total, Option I (0%) is very unrealistic and Option II provides for almost no
service level increases, even though our population, employment, households,
streets, traffic, parks, and other infrastructure are increasing at substantial
rates.
Eden Prairie was the fastest growing City in Minnesota during the 1980s. Our
population in 199D will top 40,00D. Leading economists foresee no recession in
the economy for at least three years. Building activity in the southwest area
is very active. The Planning Department has reviewed a record number of
- 2 -
projects this year, many of which will implemented by next year. By 1995 our
population will reach 48,000 and employment will be 43,500. Each year our
service programs should expand in reasonable amounts to keep pace with our
growth while not increasing our tax rates, if at all possible. This has been
the case over the past several years. For 1990, Option III essentially i.
accomplishes this goal when considering the combined City/School tax levy. The
typical homeowner in Eden Prairie should see a reduction in City/School property
taxes in 1990.
Taxpayers present at the November 30 hearing expressed their frustration and
anger over high property taxes in Eden Prairie. Several concluded that
government spending was excessive and that Eden Prairie should lead the way by
reducing our budget. However, there were very few specific suggestions about
where cuts could be made. As we know, a 5% reduction in our City budget results
in less than a 1% reduction in overall property taxes.
The real problem these taxpayers face is not government spending, but rather the
distribution of the property tax burden. As Councilmembers have also pointed
out, a uniform tax rate for all residential properties rather than the present
tiered system would be very effective in reducing taxes on higher value homes.
As we know, such changes are only possible by State legislation. Certainly our
local government spending must not be excessive nor wasteful and budget cuts are
sometimes necessary and appropriate. The City staff remains committed to
effective and efficient use of our tax dollars.
At the conclusion of the Council's review, it will be necessary to adopt
Resolution No. 89-265 certifying the 1990 property tax levy.
For your reference, the 1990 budget options presented do not include any funds
for the landfill litigation or purchase of property for City Hall. Attached is
a memo from Mr. Frane addressing the General Fund surplus. Also included is a
memo regarding the costs of operating our own central computer system, plus a
memo regarding arbitrage rules as requesed by Councilmember Tenpas. Lastly, an
attachment is included which addresses our pay program/salary adjustment
procedures.

PAGE 5 - LEGISLATIVE
1990 I - $59,600
Under this option, the City would terminate its memberships in the League
of Minnesota Cities, Suburban Rate Authority, Southwest Coalition, and
the National League of Cities. Membership in these organizations is not
critical; however, the City would lessen its ability to make its presence
and positions known at the State and Federal levels. Not having membership
in the National League of Cities would also result in higher registration
fees for NLC-sponsored events and conferences.
1990 II - $73,200
Under this proposal, the City would drop its membership to the Southwest
Coalition and the National League of Cities, resulting in a savings of
$2,800 from the proposed budget.
1990 III - $76,000
PAGE 5 - ELECTIONS
1990 I - III - $44,800
The City is required to hold primary and general elections during 1990.
The $44,800 figure represents a fixed cost.
PAGE 7 - CITY MANAGER
1990 I - $144,100
Eliminated are an intern position and office partition components. The
mileage reimbursement is reduced to $400.00 (and a car allowance option is
removed). This option reduces the flexibility for the Manager's office to
perform special project work.
1990 II - $144,300
The intern position and the mileage reduction reduced the proposed budget
by $3,400.
1990 III - $148,200
PAGE 8 - ASSESSING
1990 I - $277,400
To achieve this level of expenditure, one appraiser would be eliminated and
purchases of furniture and office equipment (including micro-computers)
would be foregone in 1990.
Many of the activities of the Assessing Oepartment are required by State
Statute. These required activities include the appraisal of all new
construction and 25% of the existing properties in the City each year. In
addition to the time spent on actual appraisals, considerable time is spent
on studying real estate markets for the mass appraisal system and on the
necessary training to keep appraisers licensed and qualified. The
appraiser position that would be eliminated works primarily with residential
properties.
Elimination of the appraiser position, combined with a reduction in
overtime, would result in a loss of approximately 1900 hours of appraisal
services. The staff reduction would result in a 1700-hour shortfall in the
amount of time that was necessary to complete the 1989 assessment and to
work on the 1990 assessment. The ultimate effect of these changes in
procedures and policies would be to greatly diminish the morale of the
remaining assessing department staff and to create more disgruntled
taxpayers. The larger number of dissatisfied taxpayers would create more
problems and phone calls for the Councilmembers and the City Manager.
1990 II - $284,000
A $7,000 increase over the amount in Option 1 occurs from increasing the
overtime expense by $5,000 and the part-time clerical expense by 52,000.
These changes would provide compensation for the extra time needed to
prepare for the Board of Review and to have sufficient clerical staff to
handle the busy season of the department.
1990 III - $319,700
The Manager's recommended budget did not include an additional appraiser
requested by the Department. After the 1990 census the City will assume the
powers and duties of the County Assessor (as provided in Minnesota Statutes)
and will no longer be able to rely on the Hennepin County Assessor's Office
for Tax Court appraisals. These appraisals will need to be funded totally
by the City. In 1990, some training time will need to be committed in order
to prepare the staff to take on these additional responsibilities. This
will take addiitonal time away from the appraisal of existing properties and
from the time available to discuss matters with taxpayers.
For comparison, the City of Bloomington has 17 employees (11 assessors and
6 clerks) in its Assessing Department to handle 30,000 parcels. In 1989,
80 new houses were added to the assessment rolls. Eden Prairie has 8.8
employees (6.8 licensed assessors and 2 clerks) to handle 15,000 parcels.
We estimate that 800 new parcels were added during 1989.
PAGE 9 - BUILDING INSPECTIONS
1990 I - $473,000
A $71,200 reduction is shown in this option. This figure would be achieved
by eliminating one of two existing fire inspection positions, eliminating
a 0.8 time clerical position, reducing part-time and overtime compensation
for inspections by $15,000, reducing contractual services by $2,700, and
by reducing commodities purchases from $14,900 to $3,800.
By eliminating a Fire Inspector position, there will be increased burdens
on the existing staff by having to pick up the added inspections and also
significantly increase the travel time between construction sites (travel
currently takes up one-third of the scheduled inspection time). The result
will be less total inspections done and less time to perform each
inspection. The overall effect will be poorer quality of inspections and
contractors who will be upset because they will be experiencing reduced
levels of service while not receiving a proportinate reduction in fees.
Similarly, the elimination of a clerk position would increase the workload
for the other staff. This position responds to requests at the counter and
receives incoming permits. This position was created to eliminate the
incessant customer interruptions and to allow the remaining staff to perform
the other clerical functions more productively.
In the part-time and overtime expenses, the lack of flexibility for City
staff would result in a delay of several days for contractors who need an
inspections. These delays will cost contractors and property owner;
additional time and money.
The net result of these staff reductions is that staff will not be able to
continue the current practice of negotiation and appeals to common sense
with contractors. The staff will need to take a firmer line with
contractors by assessing re-inspection fees and issuing citations.
1990 II - $507,500
In this alternative, a Fire Inspector position is restored for $29,200.
1990 III - $544,200
The Building Inspections Department activity is largely a reflection of the
amount of activity which has been planned. In 1989, the Planning Department
will have reviewed a record number of development proposals. By retaining
the current level of staffing, the City will be able to respond well to the
additional building activity which is anticipated.
PAGE 10 - SAFETY
1990 I - III - $9,700
The City has been increasing its commitment to safety out of concern for
employees and as a cost containment program for time lost and insurance.
PAGE 11 - FACILITIES
1990 I - $594,100
In order to achieve this level of expenditure, no new staff positions are
added, overtime is reduced, repairs are reduced by $6,000, and $6,000 is
reduced in cleaning and operating supplies. The Facilities staff will
continue its present level of service in the facilities currently served.
Cleaning the park shelters and the outdoor center would be done at minimal
levels by the Parks Maintenance staff in addition to its other duties.
Staff would not be able to increase the quality of the public facility used
by residents.
A reduction in the area of repairs is possible for those repairs which do
not immediately affect the use of the building (they could be reviewed at
year-end and he done only to the extent that funds are available.) The
problem with not performing repairs when they are needed is that there is •
risk that minor repairs can become costly major repairs if measures are not
taken to minimize damage when it first occurs.
1990 II - $602,400
The amount to he authorized for cleaning and operating supplies is restored
to its 1989 level. These increases would be necessary to maintain the
existing quality of service.
1990 III - $627,000
The recommended budget was developed in order to increase the quality of the
facilities used by residents and also to provide better preventive
maintenance and in-house repair capabilities. The City's experience with
private cleaning services has not been altogether satisfactory; hence, a
decision was made in 1988 to have this capability in-house.
PAGE 12 - PARK ADMINISTRATION & PLANNING
1990 I - $137,700
This option shows the elimination of a park planner position and a reduction
in printing costs. Elimination of the park planner would result in the
elimination of continued work on the park as-built file, and many of our
smaller design projects would be put on the "back burner". As proposed,
this budget would have no funds available to contract with private firms to
perform this work.
The reduction in printing would result in less information to be available
to residents who wish to know more about facilities available within the
park system.
1990 II - $140,200
To achieve this figure, a reduction of $6,400 in printing costs and
elimination of a park planner position is shown.
1990 III - $159,100
This figure has been revised from the original proposed budget. It calls
for the termination of the second park planner position at mid-year. It
is anticipated that most of the "back burner" work will be completed by
that time.
PAGE 13 - PARK MAINTENANCE
1990 I - $486,300 •
To achieve this level of expenditure, one full-time staff position is
eliminated. The number of part-time personnel is reduced by one from that
approved for 1989, the number of tennis courts to be seal coated is cut io
half, and some savings in commodities - particularly those needed for better
turf management - are reduced to levels nearly the same as those approved
for 1989. The number of parks which have been developed has grown since
1989, as has the use of parks. A reduction in the staff will reduce the
existing standard of care for parks and park facilities, a level that has
been proven to be barely able to keep up with the high amount of public use
of parks. By reducing the number of tennis courts which are seal coated,
the City would be reducing its commitment to preventive maintenance for
major and costly repairs in the future. Cutbacks in seed and fertilizer
for parks will continue at a level of care which turf consultants have
indicated to be substandard. Athletic associations have constantly
complained about the daily level of maintenance of the fields they are
allowed to use.
1990 II - $532,800
With this budget, the amount of part-time maintenance staff would be
retained at the 1989 level and the amount of expense for turf management
would remain essentially at 1989 levels. At this level of funding, the
City will not be able to provide consistent year-round quality for active
parks and will not be able to make needed improvements in turf management.
1990 III - $584,900
PAGE 14 - PARKS OUTLAY
1990 I - $134,200
•
Included in this budget would be three new bike trails for $50,000
(including the newly-approved one along Eden Prairie Road), one compact
pick-up truck, one Groundsmaster mower (instead of the two which had been
recommended), a mower attachment for $6,500, hand mowers and trimmers for
$2,000, and $55,000 for by-pass and turn lanes at Flying Cloud Athletic
Fields. Among the notable deletions from the recommended budget are a
Cushman for ballfield preparation, a turf sweeper for $8,600, softball
fences at Round Lake Park (which are funded from the surcharge on softball
registration fees), $30,000 for improvements at Homeward Hills park shelter,
and fences and backstops at Flying Cloud Athletic Fields.
1990 II - $134,200
1990 III - $217,900
PAGE 15 - NATURAL RESOURCES
1990 I - $54,900
This level of expenditure would limit the City's diseased tree removal
program to handle those trees which are on public property. Inspection of
diseased trees on private property would be eliminated and the amount of
information available to concerned residents would be handled essentially
by telephone. By focusing on trees on public property only, the City would
not he able to check fully the spread of Dutch Elm and oak wilt which has
been possible under the comprehensive program followed for several years.
1990 II - $129,000
Under this option, two rather than three summer tree inspectors would be
hired. The effect of this reduction would be to limit the amount of
inspection that the City would be able to do on public and private property.
There is a risk that the evidence of diseased trees could increase.
•
•
PAGE. 16 - RECREATION ADMINISTRATION/FOURTH OF JULY AND SPECIAL EVENTS
1990 I - $83,550
To achieve this level of expenditure, part-time staff is eliminated
($3,000), printing costs are held to 1989 level, supplies for special
events like the Fourth of July are drastically reduced, and all of the
instructors fees for special events ($11,000) are eliminated (although they
generate $10,000 in revenue for events). The special events performed in
this program have designed to create a greater sense of community within
Eden Praiire.
1990 II -
This level of expenditure results from reducing the part-time intern
position, keeping printing costs at $20,000, and reducing the supplies for
special events by $1,300. This level of expenditure would be less than that
approved for the 1989 budget. A reduction in the number and quality of
special events would result.
1990 III - $105,700
PAGE 17 - COMMUNITY CENTER •
1990 I - III - $544,200
PAGE 18 - BEACH/MARINA/CONCESSIONS
1990 I - $67,800
Reducing expenses to this level would eliminate the Round Lake concession •
stand and the Round Lake marina operation.
1990 II - $75,000
This reduction would have the Round Lake concession stand eliminated.
1990 III - $89,000
This level of expense is $7,000 less than that approved for the 1989 budget.
PAGE 19 - ORGANIZED ATHLETICS
1990 I & II _$156,200
•
A reduction of $9,900 results from a major cutback on the part-time
officials coordinator. This person oversees the actual performance of
officials, assists in the training of officials, and fills in for officials
when they are absent. This is an important position to insure smooth-
running leagues with 240 softball teams, 40 - 50 summer volleball teams, and
leagues in horseshoes, bocce ball, tennis, racquetball, and men's hockey -
all during the summer season alone. This proposal would reduce the level of
quality while not seeing a reduction in fees paid by participants.
1990 III =$166L100
i.
PAGE 20 - YOUTH RECREATION AND OUTDOOR CENTER
1990 I - $147,200 ;
This budget eliminates all programming at the outdoor center. There would i
also be some changes in the expenses for recreation equipment and supplies
needed for youth recreation programming. Programming would not be expanded
to meet the increased demand, including the After-care program at Eden Lake
School.
1990 II - $165,100
The difference between this option and Option I is that the programmer for
the outdoor center is maintained.
1990 III - $185,700
•
i
1
PAGE 21 - ADULT PROGRAMS
1990 I - $64,200
At this level of funding, the Teen Volunteer Program ($11,800) and the
part-time secretary/receptionist position for the Senior Center would be
eliminated.
1990 II - $85,000
Under this option, reductions totaling $1,600 would he made in
professional services, a security system for the Senior Center, and
general supplies.
1990 III - $87,600
PAGE 22 - ADAPTIVE RECREATIDN
1990 I, II, III - $37,300
No changes are proposed for the Adaptive Recreation Program. +'
PAGE 23 - HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL COMMISSION
1990 I - $26,000
The Historical Programmer position and historical programming in general
would be eliminated. There would he an $1,100 reduction in educational
and family cultural programs.
1990 1I - $32,100
A consultant would be retained for $5,000 to do historical programming
rather than spending $9,600 for a part-time Historical Programmer. Some
reductions in supporting supplies and services would also be necessary.
1990 III - $40,700
•
Some technical accounting changes are shown in this proposed figure.
The 1990 budget for this program was based upon understandings between
the City Council and the Historical and Cultural Commission on the •
amount of historical programming that would be undertaken. Additional
•
programming above that provided in 1989 is also anticipated with the
opening of the Staring Lake Amphitheater.
PAGE 24 - FINANCE
1990 I - $206,200
This expenditure level is achieved by eliminating the Purchasing/
Accountant position and delaying the purchase of $6,000 worth of micro-
computers.
This figure restore; the purchase of the micro-computers.
1990 IN - $212,200
This amount reflects a change from the original recommendation of the
City Manager. It is proposed that the Purchasing/Accountant position be
eliminated as this position was not filled during [989. In order to
enhance purchasing activities, department heads would remain responsible •
for following the purchasing policies, and purchasing would be •
-
coordinated and monitored by the existing Finance Department.
PAGE 25 - HUMAN RESOURCES
1990 I - $82,600
Under this proposal, $8,500 for an intern would be eliminated and the
•
City would forego the development of the personnel data base in 1990. •
Overtime compensation would be eliminated. A $4,000 reduction in
outside printing for the employee newsletter and personnel forms would
need to be made. A consultant would not be used for the City's •
Strategic Planning process; it would be handled internally with City
staff. Reductions in advertising and exams would also occur because of
the essential freeze on new hires in the overall Option I budget. The
$6,000 request for a micro-computer and peripheral equipment would also •
•
be eliminated. •
•
I990 II - $100,000
This figure would result from the elimination of overtime compensation
($800), $1,500 in outside printing, and a $4,800 reduction in office
equipment purchases. The use of a consultant with the City Strategic
Planning efforts would be cut in half to $1,200. This cost is somewhat •
less than that approved for 1989.
I990 III - $112,000
PAGE 26 -HUMAN SERVICES •
1990 I - $55,500
In this proposal, the City would significantly reduce its direct funding
and involvement in a variety of human services. Funding for YMCA Youth •
Outreach and Storefront, both programs which have been used successfully
by the Police Department for problem juveniles, would he eliminated (and
hopefully transferred to the Eden Prairie School District) and result in
•
a saving of $21,000. Maintenance of the bi-annual Human Services
Directory would be deleted. The full-time secretarial position intended
to handle and coordinate the increasing amount of requests for human
services information and to arrange the increasing number of no-fault
employment grievance and mediation meetings would also be eliminated for •
a saving of $19,700. The City would also forego its $1,00D contribution
to the Eden Prairie Human Services Coordinating Council. The Department
staff would have minimal, if any time, fur involvement in outside
agencies such as SHHSC, Eden Prairie Chamber of Commerce, Caregiver
Groups and the Human Services Coordinating Council.
1990 II - $77,500
To reach this number, the commitments to YMCA Youth Outreach, Store-
front, and the Human Services Coordinating Council would be eliminated.
The Human Services Fund for evolving issues would be maintained at the
1989 level.
1990 III -
PAGE 27 - PLANNING
1990 I - $294,000
Under this option, eliminated would be a secretarial position, the use
of interns, microfilming of files, and replacement of one micro-
computer. A reduction in the staff positions would delay the process of
development proposals being reviewed by the Planning Commission and City
Council and completed with the execution of Development Agreements. It
can he expected that the City would receive criticism about a Iengthier
development review and approval process. Eliminating the microfilming
of files ($3,700) represents a deferred expense as it will need to be
done in the future. Not having funds to replace the existing one micro-
computer may also result in a delay in the development review process
because the department may not he able to rely on the support machinery
to process its work.
1990 II - $303,200
The change from Option I to Option II is the inclusion of microfilming
files and providing the office furniture and equipment originally
proposed.
1990 III - $334,000
The existing level of staffing in the Planning Department has not
changed for four years; it has been able to handle a consistently high
level of work. 1989 will be a record year in the number of development
proposals which the department has been required to review. It is
anticipated t'nat the level of Planning activity will remain at the
relatively high level we have seen for the past few years.
PAGE 28 - POLICE
1990 I - $2,451,600 •
With the exception of a $7,500 reduction in contractual services, all of
the $159,300 of reduced expenses in the Police Department come from the
personnel area. No additional officers would be hired, the CSO
complement would be reduced from 3.5 positions to one position, and the
Services Manager to handle the administrative and communications
functions would be eliminated. By not having the Police Staff grow with
the City's population, several service levels could be reduced. Such
things as car lockouts, vacation home checks, time allowed for
comforting families in loss situations, providing crime prevention tips •
for victims, and spending time with kids in neighborhoods could be
affected. It may be necessary to use investigators to fill in on some
patrol shifts and thus reduce the number of cases which could be
investigated.
CSO's perform functions which do not have to handled by sworn personnel
and also do considerable work in investigating bad checks. In reducing
the CSO staff, sworn officers would need to be taken away from active
patrol; investigators may need to follow up on bad checks or a decision
made to give bad checks a very low priority. The problems for patrol
officers outlined above would be exacerbated because they would have
even less time to concentrate on patrol and investigative work.
A Services Manager was proposed with the 1990 budget in order to handle
the "civilian" or administrative duties handled by the department and to
lead the effort from the City's side for the installation of the new
Communications Dispatch Center. The position would be on a par with a
lieutenant. Existing personnel would need to be assigned to manage the
installation of the dispatch center (most likely Captain Clark), and
this change would result in less effective supervision of the Police
Staff as well as an extensive time commitment to learn about
the intricacies of communication systems.
1990 II - $2,568,700
Under this proposal, no new sworn officers would be added in 1990. The
issues involved with a static staffing level are mentioned above.
1990 III - $2,610,900
PAGE 29 - CIVIL DEFENSE
1990 I, II -$13500 •
The addition of a civil defense siren and the start of a painting
program on existing sirens would be eliminated. These reductions would
reduce the level of safety for the west-central portion of the City
(which has started to develop) and make possible the further
deterioration of existing sirens.
1990 III - $32,300
PAGE 30 - ANIMAL CONTROL
1990 I - $54,100
The amount paid for a part-time Animal Control assistants would be
reduced by $3,000 and a $3,000 Pet Protection Program would be
eliminated. This program is a public information one designed to inform
residents of animal control laws, how to prevent their pets from being
lost, and how to recover lost pets. Such a public education program may
reduce the amount of animal problems and consequently the cost for the
City to address these problems. •
PAGE 31 - FIRE
1990 I - $330,300
The largest single reduction under this option is the elimination of any
funds for station improvements to Fire Station No. 1. Improvements should
be made to provide some comparability to the other two fire stations;
however, with the likelihood of of a Highway 5/Mitchell Road interchange
eliminating the station, station improvements should be done conservatively.
A reduction of $11,000 in supplies and $2,000 in training are also
included under this option. These reductions may impair the ability of the
department to handle and respond to fire emergencies throughout the year.
A difference of $7,300 from the recommended budget is shown in the
Personal Services area. Most of this difference results from a smaller
increase in the pay for calls and training, and in a reduction in the number
of "specialists" positions on the department.
•
1990 II - $351,800
Under this option, a battalion chief position is eliminated. Some $1,500
less than budgeted for 1989 occurs under Contractual Services, $10,000 is
proposed for improvements to Station No. 1, and some $9,000 is proposed for
Supplies and First Aid Equipment.
1990 III - $374,700
PAGE 32 - ENGINEERING
1990 I - $528,500
Not adding a technician position at mid-year would reduce this budget by
$14,400. By maintaining current staffing levels, those persons doing
business with the Engineering Department would experience the same or
reduced level of turn-around time for their requests. Projects needing
attention by the senior technicians would also have to be pushed back.
Under Contractual Services, the expense for micro-filming ($6,000) would
need to be put off and covered in some future year. For the past few years,
a line has been included for special consulting services for $10,000 to
handle special projects as they may arise during the year. If this line
were deleted, the Council would need to appropriate from the Reserve or the
General Fund balance to pay for these studies. A $500 reduction is also
shown in supplies.
1990 II - $535,000
For this budget, the additional engineering technician position would be
eliminated and the special consulting line would be deleted.
1990 III - $560,300
PAGE 33 - STREET AND DRAINAGE MAINTENANCE
1990 I - $862,000
This option represents a level of expenditure approximately $160,000 less
than that approved for 1989. While there may be some temporary savings
for the 1990 budget, the focus of this department is in the maintenance of
streets and drainage features in a manner in which will maximize the life of
current facilities and minimize future repair and replacement costs. In
this option, a number of public works maintenance staff would be reduced by
one under the complement in place in 1989 (the 1990 recommended budget would
increase the number of staff position by one over 1989 in order to handle
13 miles of new streets added during 1989 and an increasingly aging system
of public streets.)
The City does contract with private firms to perform many of the
maintenance and improvement activities which are the responsibility of the
City. Seal coating is a relatively inexpensive way to dramatically
lengthen the life of a roadway. With a reduction in staff, staff will not
be able to prepare as many streets to be seal coated. The amount available
for seal coating would be $145,000, a $45,000 reduction (or approximately
5 miles) from the amount approved for 1989. Dust coating would be cut in
one-half and use of contractors for street sweeping would be eliminated
(with City staff sweeping streets and causing a doubling of the time needed
to go through the City to sweep all of the streets). The amount of asphalt
overlays would be reduced by $20,000; those streets not overlaid may be
more expensive to do in the future because they would have deteriorated
•
further.
1990 II - $914,200
Under this option, the amount of public works staff would remain constant
from 1989, as would the amount budgeted for overtime and part-time pay.
The seal coating contracts would be reduced to $160,000 and the City would
assume all street sweeping responsibilities. Asphalt overlays would also
be reduced $20,000 over the 1989 level.
1990 III - $1,010,400
The proposed 1990 budget is $11,200 below that approved for 1989.
PAGE 34 - E UIPMENT MAINTENANCE
•
1990 I - $522,700
A reduction in overtime pay to $2,000 is shown under Option I. In making
this reduction, the City staff may not be able to repair equipment in a
timely manner to provide the level of service which has been available in
previous years.
1990 II - $524,700
Under this proposal, the overtime compensation would be $4,000, compared to
the $7,000 approved for 1989 and the $8,000 recommended for 1990. Again,
this reduction may impair the ability of mechanics to put equipment back
into service in a timely manner.
1990 III - $528,700
PAGE 35 - SNOW AND ICE CONTROL
1990 1 - III - $100,200
•
PAGE 36 - STREET LIGHTING
1990 I - III - $300,000
There has been a significant revision to this program from the $200,000
included in the original proposed budget. The amount shown in this program
is a "net" amount paid after the City has received the three-year advance
payment for lighting from developers. There has been a dramatic shortfall
in these revenues, and NSP has dramatically increased electrical rates for
street lighting. Based on the trends now available, a $300,000 amount is
necessary and it represents a fixed cost.
PAGE 37 - SHARED SERVICES GENERAL
1990 I & II - $433,300 A.
Under these options, the Finance Director would perform the services now
done by a private firm to analyze and identify risk management alternatives
•
for the City organization. These services have been performed for several
years by Corporate Risk Managers, a firm based in Eden Prairie.
1990 III - $443,300
PAGE 38 - SHARED SERVICES - DATA PROCESSING
1990 I - III - $102,000
PAGE 39 - SHARED SERVICES - LEGAL COUNSEL
1990 I - III =$175,000
This budget has not been adjusted to include any legal fees to be funded
from the operating budget for the continued litigation on the Flying Cloud
Sanitary Landfill expansion proposal. These expenses may be covered by a
budget appropriation or by use of the General Fund balance.
PAGE 40 - SHARED SERVICES - PUBLIC INFORMATION
1990 I - III - $63,000
•
Under these options, the communciations functions would be handled by
existing staff. These responsibilities would include production of
community and employee newsletters and, if an arrangement may be worked with
Paragon Cablesystems, the production of cablecast meetings and local
programming. The City would not purchase any of the video equipment or
supplies necessary to produce its own cable programs.
1990 III - $119,200
PAGE 41 - EMPLOYEE BENEFITS AND TRAINING
1990 I - $1,551,400
•
It is estimated that with the staff reductions throughout the general
fund balance budget under Option I, a reduction of $20,000 in these
obligations may be realized.
1990 II - $1,561,400
It is estimated that with the staff reductions throughout the general
fund balance budget under Option II, a reduction of $10,000 in these
obligations may be realized.
1990 III - $1,571,400
PAGE 42 - SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
1990 I & II - $32,200
A $10,000 reduction over the amount approved for 1989 and requested for 1990
is shown in this program. In reducing the amount for printing and publicity t
purposes, the City may not be able to do as frequent or as extensive a public t
information campaign on a variety of more responsible solid waste ?
management practices that individual residents do. {
1990 III - $42,200 j
PAGE 43 - RESERVE
1990 I - $325,000
'a
With a decrease in the amount of staff to receive salary adjustments under q
Option I, and by reducing the amount for wage adjustments and for A
contingencies, the amount in the Reserve would be reduced to $325,000.
1990 II - $385,000
This figure results from slight reductions in the amount for wage
adjustments and contingencies.
1990 III - $400,000

DATE : DECEMBER 15, 1989
RE: 1989 GENERAL FUND REVENUES
AS OF NOW IT APPEARS THAT 1989 REVENUES WILL BE ABOUT $100,000
MORE THAN ESTIMATED LAST MONTH. IN ADDITION, WE HAVE COMPLETED
OUR ANALYSIS OF OVERHEAD TRANSFERS AVAILABLE FROM PUBLIC
IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS. THIS AMOUNT IS $667,000; OF THIS AMOUNT
$35,000 IS APPROPRIATED TO THE 1989 BUDGET LEAVING A REVENUE
IN EXCESS OF BUDGET OF $332,000 IN THIS CATAGORY.
IT APPEARS THAT THE GENERAL FUND BUDGET SURPLUS WILL INCREASE
TO $2,126,000 (1,694,000 THE PRESENT BALANCE +100,000 +332,000).
THE 1990 PROPOSED REVENUE BUDGET FOR OVERHEAD TRANSFERS IS ABOUT
$100,000 TO HIGH AND SHOULD BE ADJUSTED. THIS REDUCTION COULD
BE OFFSET BY RESERVING $100,000 OF THE GENERAL FUND SURPLUS FOR
THE 1990 BUDGET. DOING THIS WOULD RESULT IN AN UNENCUMBERED
GENERAL FUND SURPLUS OF $2,026,000 AS OF DECEMBER 31, 1989.

1990 BUDGE I
Issues for Consideration
Pay Program/Salary Adjustments
Individual department budgets do not reflect forecasted salary increases for
several reasons:
* The data is not available to Department Heads at the time budgets are
prepared.
- market data is not available to Human Resources til late summer.
- mid-year performance evaluations are not completed til late August
(short-term indicator of performance).
- job re-evaluations for pay equity are not completed until December.
* The City is on a centralized salary administration program as a result
of the comparable worth law. Increases are done by computor using a
preset formula. Department Head input is limited to establishing the
performance rating. A brief overview of the Employee Pay programs
follows:
Employee Pay Programs
General Employees (155)
Merit Pay Program (annual program January 1st implementation)
Increases are based on two variables:
1. Position in pay level (first third, middle third,
top third)
2. Performance level
A salary matrix is used to determine the percent (%) of increase
Contract Employees (45)
Union contract: The contract is negotiated jointly with 23 other
• metro-area cities. The current contract expires 12/31/89;
negotiations are underway.
Comparable Worth/Pay Equity Requirements
The pay equity plan adopted by the City in 1987 was based on a two step
process.
Step 1: An initial 'one time' salary increase to bring underpaid
employees into the salary range established for their
job level.
Step 2: Annual salary increases based on a salary administration
system that provides proportionately larger increases
for employees in the low end of their salary range.
