EDEN PRAIRIE (DEVELOPMENT) REDEVELOPMENT PLAN City Manager, Roger Ulstad was present to answer questions regarding the Man which had been continued from July 28, 1980. Levitt stated that he wanted the vote to read as a finding of fact rather than a recommendation. Torjesen stated that it was his opinion that the City should not be encouraging growth and that he intended to vote nay. Motion entley moved finding the road improvements planned for financing under the HRA Man in conformance with the City's Revised Comprehensive Guide Plan. Sutliff seconded, motion carried 4-1-1. Bearman abstaining and Torjesen voting nay. 19?2 approved Planning Commission Minutes -1- July 28, 1980 MENDERS ABSENT: Beaman t Retterath IV. EDEN PRAIRIE (Development) REDEVELOPMENT PLAN John Frane, City Financial Director presented the Tax Increment and (Development) Redevelopment Plan, listing the major road improvements to be financed in the Major Center Area. He explained that the bridges, underpasses. and ramps made up a major portion of the cost which the City had been depending on State help for. These projects had been dropped by the State due to lack of funds and that the Tax Increment financing method remained the only viable way to proceed. Bentley inquired if any property owners would be assessed for any portion of the improvement. Frane replied that although the major improvements suLh as bridges would be funded by Tax Increment, 60% of the 2-lane roadway would be assessed to property owners on a front foot basis. 8" Bentley asked about the phasing of the project. Frane replied that phasing would proceed in areas currently under development first. Bentley asked what the effect of the Tax Increment District on other Agencies was, and what problems would occur if the Tax Increment District could not repay the bonds within the allowed time. Frane replied that since the District was being utilized to stimulate development that may not otherwise happen and be taxable, that the effect on other agencies would be neglible. In terms of debt repayment, he said that the intent was to sell Revenue Bonds, which committed only the vehicle of revenue production for repayment Frane explained further that you have 25 years from start until the final bond is retired. $pp Torjesen asked when the underpass and ramps would be built on 1-494. Frane stated that it was possible to begin by 1982. Torjesen asked if the Plan was meant to encourage development, as he felt this was not the concensus of Eden Prairie's Citizens. Frane replied yes. Torjesen asked if the costs projected would still be valid in 1987. Frane felt that they would. Gartner asked that if the taxes go up as a result of this, and they have not rebuilt anything, would that still be a tax increment district. Frane replied yes. ♦.i Sutliff asked about the access to the properties. The Planner replied that Schooner Blvd. will be a limited access road. Intersections will be limited to 6E0 ft. spicing. This would allow signalization of each access point in the event it became necessary. Torjesen commented that he feels that the City has an obligation to improve access { to Eden Prairie Center and to its customers and to other users. He does not feel that the City should get in and encourage rapid development of the major Center area. Bentley stated that the M.C.A. addressed the area as being of regional importance and outlined it as an area of high density development. Also, by not finding ways of encouraging development, they are actually putting a hardship on property owners. 1y'3 • approved Planning Commission Minutes -2- July 28, 1980 Warren Gerecke, Golden Ridge Drive, stated that he agrees with the idea of tax increments but he feels there is a critical need for the Homart Shoppinn Center to have better roads to get to the Center. He also feels that the whole City should be taxed rather than a tax increment district because the whole City benefits from this. Gartner asked if there was additional time available for Planning Commission consid- eration. Frane replied yes, but was hopeful that the plan submitted to the comm- ission contained ample information. `4 Levitt asked what financing alternates were available for road improvements. Frane replied that there are no alternatives. S Levitt asked the value of the development already occuring in the major Center area. Frane replied that it is about 18 million dollars. 5 million of which is Homart Center. John Gollie, Willow Creek Road, asked whether State or Federal funding could be restored in years to come. Frane replied that it is hard to predict, but if the • funds do come that could reduce the cost of the tax,increment district financing. Don Sorensen, 7121 Willow Creek Road, asked if the allocation of the special assessment of 95/5 has changed. Frane replied that yes, there had been a change but he did not know the percentage rate. Motion aner moved to continue until August 11, 1980 in order to allow the commission time to consider whether the project was consistent with the Comprehensive Guide Plan. Torjesen seconded. Discussion evil—tt asked what the commission is being asked to do. Frane replied that they are • being asked to determine if the plan conforms with the Comprehensive Guide Plan. Levitt asked if this plan conformed with the Comprehensive Guide Plan. The Planner stated that it was generated from the Comprehensive Guide Plan. Vote ' ' %Iron carried 3-2. Sutliff and Bentley voted no:. 19�y DATE: August 15, 1980 TO: Roger Ulstad, Manager FROM: Jack Hacking SUBJECT: Certificate of Merit Fireman Michael Rogers and City Employee Stuart Fox will receive the Certificate of Merit Award for the Emergency Medical Care that they provided to Jim Shultz when he was injured in a diving accident on the Mississippi River on August 19, 1979. Attached is a letter from Dr. John L. Seymour stating that without the proper care provided by Mike and Stuart that Jim Shultz may have been paralyzed from the neck down. Public Safety Officer James Bergstrom will receive the Certificate of Merit Award for giving CPR to the victim of a heart attack who was standing on a street corner at Fort Snelling waiting for a bus. Officer Bergstrom administered CPR until the ambulance arrived and then rode to the hospital in the ambulance continuing to provide CPR. Officer Bergstrom was employeed by the Federal Protective Securities Department at this time. This incident took place in January of 1979. i; il.

He is a man who dove off the roof of a houseboat into about three to four feet of shallow water. He had.hit his head on rocks on the bottom IRIj and was dazed but able to stand up at that time. MCS He was, however, unable to get himself out.of the water and was -- assisted by two friends: Mike Rogers and Stu.Fox. Because there was a neck injury involved and the victim was complaining of arm numbness, several precautions were taken by these..two individuals. Before moving Mr.- Shultz -from the water, a back board was fashioned from a wooden table and then several bath towels were used to immobilize his neck. "" It turned out that Mr. Shultz had a broken neck and a scalp lacera- G tion. GE Without proper care of an injured neck, proper transportation on a back board and immobilization of his neck, he could possibly have been paralyzed from the neck down. As I.am sure you are aware, this is certainly most important in cases where there is a question.af neck.injury-and•particularly those m when the patient complains of numbness or tingling in some part of the body that the neck be protected well during movement to a.proper care facility.

Located East of US 169 and South of Anderson Lakes Parkway (Resolution No. 80-125 - P110; and Resolution No. 80-126 - preliminary plat) Continued from July 15, 1980 City Manager Ulstad explained at the July 15th Council meeting there was concern expressed by the Council regarding Outlot A which did not have a designation within the PUD. Francis Hagen, Westwood Planning & Engineering, representing the proponents, stated they are willing to designate Outlot A for office or publics which could be an office or library, or semi-public, which could be a church or day care center. Mr. Hagen spoke to the berming and landscaping proposed along the east side. /W 17 City Council Minutes - 3 - Tues.,August 5, t98U A. Anderson Lakes Parkway Neighborhood Shopping Center (continued) Osterholt asked City Planner Enger if he felt this would be a satisfactory plan for Outlot A. Mr. Enger replied in the affirmative. MOTION: Osterholt moved, seconded by Redpath, to close the Public Hearing and adopt Resolution No. 80-125, approving the request for PUD Concept approval for Anderson Lakes Parkway Neighborhood Shopping Center by Eden Prairie Real Estate Investment Corporation subject to the Staff Report dated June 5, 1980, recommendations of the Planning Commission and the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission, and the designation of Outlot A for office or quasi-public. Motion carried unanimously. ' MOTION: Redpath moved seconded by Osterholt, to adopt Resolution No. 80-126, approving the preliminary plat for Anderson Lakes Parkway Neighborhood Shopping %. Center.

Motion carried unanimously. B. Street name changes - Bluff,Boulevard and Bluff Road (Ordinance No. 80-20) Continued from July 1, 1980 City Manager Ulstad explained at the July 1st Council meeting the Council reviewed the present names of Bluffs Boulevard and Bluff Road, and there was a suggested change to Bluff Road and also the Homeward Hills extension. At that meeting it was decided that the Council wanted to review this further so the Public Hearing was continued to August 5, 1980, with instructions that the property owners be renotified. City Engineer Jullie displayed an overhead of the present road situation. Tom Treno, 10356 Bluffs Boulevard, read from a petition signed by 87 residents 1 on Bluffs Boulevard expressing opposition to the proposal for changing Bluffs Boulevard to West Bluffs Boulevard, or to any change in the name of Bluffs Boulevard (attached as part of minutes). Mr. Treno stated he does not believe adding "East" or "West" will end the confusion The petitioners are in favor for the most part in leaving the road as Bluffs Boulevard, and if a change has to be made that a totally different street name be considered. Ron Newman, 10407 Bluffs Boulevard, suggested if a change has to take place that different names be given to the cul-de-sacs. Also if Bluffs Boulevard has to be changed that it be a distinct name change, not "East" & "West" or "E" & "W". Steve Ring, 10336 Bluffs Boulevard, agreed with Mr. Newman's suggestions. Ken Fasching, 10472 Bluffs Boulevard, suggested naming the cul-de-sacs in alphabetical order rather than random names. Hugh Brenner, 9599 Bluff Road, explained those residents living on Bluff Road have had continuity of residence for up to 40 years, and it does seem to be a little bit unfair that a developer comes in and happens to make a nam• causes a little trouble later on and then they have to change their name. I %onerou`>)should be on whoever caused this confusion to correct it, rather than the o have had this name for such a long period of time. Mrs. Brenner also expressed opposition to changing the Bluff Road name along with Dr. Fred Ekrem, 9845 Bluff Road. Walter James, 1D340 Bluffs Boulevard, strongly suggested a distinct name change for each cul-de-sac and leaving the road out in front a distinct name, i.e., Homeward Hills Road or whatever. Further to petition the neighbors between now • and the next Council meeting to see what they want. t9 ie City Council Minutes - 4 - Tues.,August 5, 1980 1 B. Street name changes - Bluffs Boulevard and Bluff Road (continued) 0sterholt suggested consideration be given to calling the cul-de-sacs circles ( rather than streets or avenues. MOTION: Osterholt moved, seconded by Redpath, to continue the Public Hearing to September 16, 1980, for the purpose of allowing the residents to work with City Engineer Jullie to develop B distinctive names for the cul-de-sacs, 1 that Bluffs Boulevard as now constituted be renamed Homeward Hills Road down to Riverview Road, and to discontinue any consideration of name changes for Bluff Road which would remain as is. Motion carried unanimously. Penzel commented that Bluffs Boulevard should also be eliminated in the Bluffs West 2nd/3rd Addition. C. Proposed frontage road improvements along T.H. 5 between Fuller Road and Co. Rd. 1 4 (Resolution No. 80-150) City Engineer Jullie spoke to the proposed project and assessments, and displayed a graphic depicting same. Jullie recommended the Council consider ordering in the improvements as the project is feasible. Edstrom asked if City Engineer Jullie had any reactions from any of the owners, particularly those properties to the east. Jullie replied he did send a copy of the feasibility report to all of the people within the project and has had some reaction and some concern about the cost, i.e., Stewart Sandwich property owners feel that perhaps they now have a connection that works quite well for them, and a gentleman from Birchwood Laboratories called and said the problem at Hwy. 5 and Fuller Road is less now than before the Stewart connection was made. Max Kettlewell, Project Coordinator for E. A. Sween Company (formerly Stewart Sandwich Company), spoke in opposition to the proposed improvements inasmuch as they don't have any traffic going out onto Highway 5 now. They are satisfied with their own approach and would not be interested in the proposed improvement from the standpoint of cost and assessment. Peter Petrulo, Executive Vice President of Operations for the E. A. Sween Company, also spoke in opposition to the proposed improvements. Norman Villwock, Birchwood Laboratories, commented as Birchwood Laboratories owns the largest acreage in the assessed area, they are opposed to this assessment. Mr. Villwock added they are highly interested in solving the safety problem but feel the cost to them is excessive for this project. Mr. McGregor, Amoco Oil Company, spoke in opposition to the project, i.e., there is about $100,000.00 spent on soil correction so there must be other more feasible solutions, it doesn't serve a very big area, when you get over to Fuller Road there is limited stack area, it appears the best solution would be the one with Justus Lumber, and this improvement project has limited benefit to Amoco. Osterholt added one advantage to the Justus plan is it does add more acreage to the project and therefore reduces the per acre assessment. ai City Council Minutes - 5 - Tues.,August 5, 1980 C. Proposed frontage road improvements along T.H. 5 between Fuller Road and Co. Rd. 4 (ccontinued) MOTION: Osterholt moved, seconded by Edstrom, to close the Public Hearing and instruct staff to prepare a feasbility report on 3 alternatives for potential hearing on October 21, 1980, those alternatives being: 1) between Fuller Road and Co. Rd. 4, 2) between the Sween Company and Birchwood Laboratories property, and 3) the southerly one (Justus property). Motion carried unanimously. D. Deer Creek PUD & Rezoning by T.G.C. Development, Inc. Request for PUD concept approval on 8D acres for single family, townhouse, quadra-miniums, and commercial use; rezoning from Rural to RM 2.5 for first phase, preliminary plat approval, and approval of an Environmental Assessment Worksheet. Located east of Mitchell Road, south of Old Farm Quads, and north of Ridgewood West (Resolution No. 80-138 - PUD; Ordinance No. 80-19 - rezoning; Resolution No. .80-139 - preliminary.plat;_and. Resolution No. 80-140 - E.A.W.) Bill Dolan, Project Engineer, spoke to the proposal and displayed graphics and a model depicting same. Bill Fierke, Vice President of Marketing for Orrin Thompson, showed slides of quads they have built in other communities and distributed a brochure of Town Homes by Orrin Thompson. City Planner Enger explained this item was considered at the May 12, June 9, June 23 and July 14th Planning Commission meetings. The Commission on July 14th did recommend to the City Council approval of the PUD Concept for the 8D acres, preliminary plat for the central portion, rezoning for the 1st phase from Rural to RM 2.5 based on the plan dated July 10, 1980, the staff report dated June 20, 198D, and recommendations as outlined in the Planning (mission minutes dated July 14, 1980. The Commission also recommended approval of the Environmental Assessment Worksheet. Enger added that the Planning Commission felt that prior to proceeding with Phase 2 the connection out to Mitchell Road should be underway,and that as part of proceeding with Phase 2 that Anderson Lakes Parkway at least be an ordered in type of project. Enger explained Mr. Carmody, the owner of the property for this proposal, has been circulating a petition to surrounding land owners to extend Anderson Lakes Parkway from Scenic Heights Road down through the Centex property. Director of Community Services Lambert stated the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission recommended approval to the City Council. Lambert addressed the 3 concerns expressed by the Commission: 1) a trail connection between Mitchell Road and Anderson Lakes Parkway, which has been satisfied with a 5 foot concrete sidewalk, 2) that the pond on the south and the low space wetland area in the north central portion be preserved and tied in with the homeowner owned mini-park or totlot, and 3) the Purgatory Creek Study referred to when development occurred in this area that the City should secure a trail easement along the creek leading down to Staring Lake and when that area is rezoned that the trail easement be secured. Mr. Fierke and Mr. Dolan answered questions of Council members regarding the proposal. Penzel asked where the petition for Anderson Lakes Parkway is at this time? Mr. Carmody replied he sent several copies of the petition out to the property owners from Scenic Heights Road through Ridgewood, and he has the petition back from Ridgewood, Centex and Northrup King signed. The people that are developing Burning Tree haven't as yet signed the petition but are willing to. The bank who owns approximately 1,300 feet on the nth side are at this point unwilling to sign. City Council Minutes - 6 - Tues.,August 5, 1980 D. Deer Creek PUD & Rezoning by T.G.C. Development, Inc. (continued) Edstrom asked if any consideration has been given to requiring the opening to the west of Mitchell Road with the first phase of this development. Enger replied the Planning Commission spent quite a lot of time with that idea in j mind and did make the recommendation that the first phase be allowed to continue prior to the connection of the road. Edstrom commented from the park and recreation standpoint is there any desirability of constructing a more substantial fence to protect the totlot from the artery. Lambert explained he talked to Enger about a fence when they first discussed a totlot right on the through street, and they felt the use cf landscaping berms would be used to discourage children from running out into the street. Edstrom felt additional consideration should be given to more protection from the street to the totlot. Mr. Papenfuss, 8385 Mitchell Road, expressed concern about the 1st phase traffic going down Mitchell Road which is going to get pretty crowded if Anderson Lakes Parkway isn't built sooner, and asked that provisions be made to take care of the additional traffic. Penzel explained that ultimately the concept is to reroute most of that traffic along Anderson Lakes Parkway. The problem is that not all of the property owners are enamored with the idea of extending it at this time. The Council will have to look at the petitions, if and when it receives them, and at the same time keep monitoring through the City staff what the traffic levels are on Mitchell Road to see what the needs are toward the extension of Anderson Lakes Parkway between Hwy. 169 where Scenic Heights and Mitchell Road now meet. Letter from Sandra Sheperd, 14242 Chestnut Drive, was entered into the record. (Attached as part of minutes) MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Edstrom, to close the Public Hearing and adopt Resolution No. 80-138, granting PUD concept approval for 80 acres for single family, townhouse, quadra-minium and commercial use. Motion carried unanimously. MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Edstrom, to give a 1st Reading to Ordinance No. 80-19, rezoning from Rural to RM 2.5 for the first phase for Deer Creek by T. G. C.

Red Rock Park - Update Director of Community Services Lambert spoke to his memo dated July 23, 1980. Lambert felt it was essential to bring the problem with the acquisition of the Red Rock Park before the Council sometime this summer. The same memo was forwarded to the Parks, Recreation-&-Natural Resources Commission on August 4th and the Commission decided to take action. Their recommenda- g tion was that if the City couldn't negotiate for acquisition of the park before the end of this year, that we enter into condemnation on the parcel. Lambert added more and more development is being approved around the park and we can't wait much longer. j Mr. Virgil Seifert, owner of the 14 acre parcel, stated the problem is the developer he sold to two years ago is putting him off which makes him un- certain just when he would want to sell the park land. The developer who bought the land is in default right now, and there is a very good chance Mr. Seifert may get the property back a second time. Mr. Seifert added he should have a decision from the developer by August 20, 1980. ( Osterholt asked Mr. Seifert if he would be interested in the City's offer: Mr. Seifert stated he expects to sell the land eventually; however, was insulted with the appraisal obtained by the City as the property was sold 8 years ago for $3,700.00 an acre,and has been assessed for the last 8 years 1 at $3,500.00 an acre. The City's'appraisal is only for $2,000.00 an acre. MOTION: Osterholt moved, seconded by Pauly, to continue this item to the September 16, 1980 Council meeting, and to direct staff to look at i alternative sites which might be used in place of Mr. Seifert's. Motion carried unanimously. 6. Historic Parks Director of Community Services Lambert spoke to his memo dated June 26, 1980 on City Historical Parks. Lambert explained he took this item to the Parks, Recration & Natural Resources Commission on August 4th. The Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission suggested that a joint meeting be held with the City Council and the Historical & Cultural Commission. MOTION: Osterholt moved, seconded by Pauly, to set a joint meeting for the City Council to meet with the Historical & Cultural Commission and the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission to tour the Grill house on October 2, 1980 at 6:30 PM. Motion carried unanimously. 140 City Council Minutes - 10 - Tues.,August 5, 1980 IX. NEW BUSINESS A. Easement acquisition - James J.

'finis letter is basically in reference to the nublic hearing nn oevolonment, Inc. 's request for PUD Jnrcent anprnvai for rinrle 'amity, towniin'is•'s, condominium, and community commereial- upon m 00 acres, rr--r.?ng from Rural to RM 2.5 and rreliminany .,Tat a' rn-vnl. (Deer creel') i am orrored to three rarts of the proposal. First, I think that the en -0; and swami area should be left as a protected wild life • :area. I have often gone cross-country skiing and hi'ring in this area. On most visits, varying with the season, one can see mnauon :'n '; deer, ohno ':' ', rabbits, ducks, herons, etc. I feel tilat this wildlife area is an asset to the uitv of Eden Prairie and its an shou'd he destroyed by development. nc^r:dly, I am opposed to community commercial development in a residential area because of the following reasons: 1-adequate shopping exists nearby 2-hrin^s in people from outside or the neighborhood who often are not concerned with the residents goals of neighborhood nreser•:a"nn. 3-a cammnreial area has already been developed along Highway 5 that con house community commercial. 4-community commercial,if a dairy store, is a frequent target for robberies which are not desirable in any neighborhood. My third point of concern is the increasing population density in the area of chestnut Drive and environs. Presently there are 120 units at Chestnut Apartments, about 84 units at Atherton, 60 some in development at the Old Farmhouse site, and, again under construction, 64 at Burning Tree. (about 214 of these units exit only onto Chestnut Drive) As you consider the anprnval of the Deer Creek properties, I sincerely hone you will consider • the problems created by over density of population and allow no further building of apartments and condominiums in this area. I, also have some comments to make on develnner's promises made • at previous council and planning meetings. The uPT developers . said they would screon their building with landscaping. To date. I see very tall weeds and dead trees on the Scenic Heights hnulevard or the uPT site. Th^ developers of the Old Farmhouse rite said they would leave trees standing in their project. Presently, • 95% of the trees have been removed. As an Eden Prairie resident, I am concerned about the unwillinc*.ness of developers to carry nut three promises. .nlnk you for reading my comments. • August 19, 1980 CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE ( HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO R80-154 RESOLUTION APPROVING PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS AND ORDERING ADVERTISEMENT FOR 8I0S (I.C. 51-386) • WHEREAS, the City Engineer has prepared plans and • specifications for the following improvement, to wit, I.C. 51-386, Utility improvements along T.H. 101 north of Valley View Rd. and has presented such plans and specifications to the Council for approval: NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY • OF EDEN PRAIRIE: 1.

We feel this continuance is necessary to provide us with time to create and prepare a conceptual buffering plan for the western boundary of our Timber Creek proposal. We feel this is necessary in light of concerns raised at the August 8, 1980 Planning Commission meeting as the two dissenting votes were both cast because they felt the proposed condominiums on our western boundary may be too close to a potential single-family area. In the park land located in our southwestern corner we feel that • there is sufficient buffering through the park dedication land from the existing single-family area which abuts our property at that point. We feel that by the use of landscaping and berming that the open space farther to the north on our western boundary can effectively be buffered by berming and landscaping within our current proposal. We feel that our plat conforms with your City's Comprehensive Land • Use Plan, your City's Comprehensive Thoroughfare Plan, and your City's Comprehensive Utilities Plan, has a unanimous recommendation from your City Park Comnission.and has a positive recommendation from your City Planning Commission that this concept plan should be approved. Thank you for your consideration in this matter. Sincerely, B-T L D COMPANY • • Rick D. Murray Vice President RDM/lg • Unapproved Planning Commission Minutes -2- August 11, 1980 MEMBERS ABSENT: .Gartner B. TIMBER CREEK, by B-T Land Company. Request for Planned Unit Development approval on 150 acres of land for single family & multiple residential, park land, and open space uses. Lo- cated North of Duck Lake Trail, West of Co. Rd. 4 and South of Townline Road. A public hearing. The Planner explained that the proponent had revised the original plan according to Commission recommendations, reviewed the staff report dated 8/8/80, and stated that new public hearing notices had been sent. The Planner introduced Rick Murray, 1 representing B-T Land Company and Jack Lynch, Land Planner. Lynch reviewed the history from the previous meeting and reviewed the major concerns. He also reviewed the revisions of the plan. Additional accesses had been added to the parks, a through road had been added to connect with future development to the west. And to respond to the Planning Commission concerns regarding the proximity of a number of quad homes to the vacant land to the west, they had added an 80' buffer area and clustered the units into a condominium type to increase open space between units. He stated that they would submit detailed buffering plans with a zoning proposal. The Planner suggested to the Commission that they refer to items in the 4/9/80 staff report and 8/8/8D staff report while they are making motions. Bentley stated that he felt that eightplexes do not allow the plan to conform with the Comprehensive Guide Plan. The Planner stated that the density is under 2 units/acre and that the Guide Plan makes provision for clustering of units to promote variety and preserve open space. Lynch stated that the density has not changed although the distance to the proper- ties, building mass and the building design has. He also stated that the eightplexe has 4 units on the top and 4 units on the bottom, which ranges from 960 sq. ft. to 1300 sq. ft. each. Levitt asked about the maintenance of the eightplexes. Lynch stated that there will be an over all Home Owner's Association, and three subordinate building main- tenance associations. Joe Morin, 18520 South Eden Drive, presented a petition and report from the residents entitled, Resident's Report to The Eden Prairie Planning Commission on The Timber Creek Development. Morin also read this report dated August 11, 1980 and asked that it be made part of the record. William Kannenberg, 15909 West 62nd Street, stated that if the 'Wilderness Park' Concept proposed by Morin were adopted, the residents south of the creek could obtain access to it by construction of a floating boardwalk. Steve Stensgaard, 6544 Eden Prairie Road, felt that the proposed road access to Co. Rd. 4 would be dangerous. The Planner responded that the County had reviewed the access and found it accept- able, however, the proponent would be required to .add turn lanes and by-pass lanes to Co. Rd. 4. Elanore McKewan, 16730 Baywood Terrace, felt that the proposal should be reviewed as two separate proposals north and south. 200/ .i_ Unapproved Planning Commission Minutes -3- August 11, 1980 1 4 Bearman asked how many units there would be south of the creek and on how many acres. The Planner stated that there are 179 units south of the creek on 94 acres; ' 2 units/acres would allow a possibility of 188 units. Mrs. James Pedric, 15816 North Lund Road, felt that the only reason multiple was being considered south of the creek was to allow the developer to make more money. s Paul Choiniere, 15819 North Eden Drive, stated that he is opposed to PUD's in general, 1 because in the east they have not been successful. I Bearman stated that a P.U.D. here is different, because it is not a zone but a process. ;1 for allowing mixed land use, each use to be zoned to an appropriate zoning catagory. Michael Reuter, 66D2 Rainbow Drive, asked if Co. Rd. 4 can handle the additional traffic. a Levitt asked if there would be a realigning of the intersection of Co. Rd. 4 and i Duck Lake Trail. The Planner stated that there would be a wi$ening of Duck Lake Trail to the south to allow Duck Lake Trail to make a safe 90 angle with Co. Rd. 4. Since many questions were being asked that had been covered in the original public hearing, the Planner highlighted the 4/9/80 staff report, regarding traffic 1 ( concerns. Curtis Knutson, 6511 Undestad Street, would rather see single family as a buffer 1 to the west and he also feels there is a traffic problem on Co. Rd. 4. , John Price, 16680 Honeysuckle Lane, feels there should be two parks as in the Plan. William Kannenberg, 15909 W. 62nd Street, asked why it is necessary to have multiple dwellings anywhere in the City. The Planner stated that the Comprehensive Guide Plan 1 allows multiple dwellings to provide a variety of housing opportunity. Levitt expressed his concern that some oeonle that signed the petition might not I have understood that the proposal was to remove the Dark from the south area and place it in the north. John Beal, 15820 Oak Ridge Road, stated that 94% of the people in the area contacted signed the petition and that it was explained to them, Tim Pierce, 16669 Honeysuckle Lane, asked what the density of the area adjacent to Country Vista was. Lynch replied no development abuts any existing family; 10 acres of park abut Country Vista. Peter DiBona, 15809 Park Terrace Drive, commented that he feels that the condominiums i will become ghettos. ( Torjesen asked the people if they wanted a wilderness oark on the north side of the creek, would it not also be more fair to distribute additional density up there. 2 002 1 Unapproved Planning Commission Minutes -4- August 11, 1980 Paul Choiniere, 15819 North Lund Road, felt that because of natural springs in the northern area, that it would be unsuitable for townhouses. Rick Murray, 8-T Land Company, stated that actually the ability to cluster multiple units north of the creek on the buildable areas would be more feasible than the scattered large lot single family proposed. He summarized the changes they had responeded to and urged the Planning Commission to recommend approval of the P.U.O. to the City Council. He felt the resedents' park proposal was really exclusive of his current request. Motion 1 [Vitt moved to close the public hearing on Tlmber Creek. Sutliff seconded, motion carried 6-0. Motion 2 Levitt moved to recommend to the City Council approval of the revised PUD Concept based upon the plan dated 7/24/80, the 4/9/80 staff report, the 7/22/80 memo from BRW, and the 8/8/80 staff memo. Sutliff seconded. DISCUSSION Levitt felt that there are two over-riding issues, which are, land use and whether there was to be two parks as voted on in the bond issue, or some large wilderness park as proposed by the residents. Bentley asked Levitt if he would include the removal of condominiums from the southwest further to the east. Levitt replied no. Bentley moved to amend the motion to move the condaninium units (south of the.creek) .... .... further away from the future single family area occurring to the west. Torjesen seconded, motion failed, 3-3. Levitt, Retterath, and Bearman voted no. • - The original unamended motion carried 4-2.

Reports of Staff 1. Development Proposal a. Timber Creek Lambert referred to Staff Memo of June 23, 1980, pointing out • that this development is back on the agenda tonight after being rejected by the Commission at the June 16 meeting. Lambert indicated to the developer after the June 16 meeting, that he felt the Commissions, two major concerns were access to the • • northern most park and preserving the knoll to the north— west. The developer said he had already dedicated more than the 10;; minimum park land established by the City • ordinance, therefore he would only sell the }atoll property. The developer did improve access to the two parks since the last meeting and has provided access to the floodplain as well. • Jack Lynch (BRW) was present representing the developer and said they have been working with the City Staff for over 6 months on this proposal, so now the developer needs direction from the Commission if this proposal does not fit the needs of the Community. R. Anderson asked how this neighborhood park proposal serves the residents compared to other neighborhood parks in the City. Lambert replied better than most. He further explained that neighborhood parks serve about a mile radius and because the• service area in this proposal is • divided by a road and a creek, the parks were divided as well and service about a a mile radius. l 20 Minutes - Parks, Recreation & approved Natural Resources Commission -2- July 7,1980 • Lambert agreed with the neighbors present at the last meeting that the high hill northwest of the northern most part of the site is beautiful, but the only way it could be pre- served in open space rather than be developed is if the City purchaac:: '':e iesci. Lambert said that these sites are neighbor- hood parks that care developed for providing active park space for the residents, and preservation of the knoll would provide very limited park use. If good active park space is not planned now, residents will demand it in the future and then there will be no land available for it. Resident Paul Choiniere commented that Birch Island Park, a community park serving residents in this area, does not have good access from the west as it is so dangerous to cross County Road 4. He also said there is no buffer planned in this development for the neighbors to the northeast of the site. Choiniere commented that the knoll on this site was ;. included in a past bond issue and now those plans have ohanged. Lambert responded to kr. Choinierels comments as follows: Birch Island Park '.:as included in the 1969 bond issue as a community park, however it has limited active use. Lambert said the Timber Creek parks (formerly Eden Farms East and West) were included in the 1979 park bond issue as two parks. The unsuccessful 1975 park bond issue included a single 20 acre ( park referred to as Eden Farms. He also pointed out that the Citydoes not provide a buffer if the lots are of similar character, as in this case residential. Resident Joe Morin asked if Round Lake Park is.within walking distance and could be considered an active use area for this development. Lambert said it is about 1 mile away which puts it outside of the neighborhood park-1 mile radius. Breitenstein stated that she feels there•is a great need for a park along Duck Lake Trail as this proposal would provide. MOTION: Breitenstein moved to recommend the Council approve the Timber Creek Development Proposal as presented this evening. Johnson seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. DISCUSSION: Resident Choiniere said that the notice of the last park bond issue was received by residents the day of the election, thus providing no opportunity to respond (he specified that this statement be put on the records). He also expressed concern that proper park provisions were not made in the past for residents to the west of this develop- ment thus why should this developer have to provide for what was not planned before. 2oCJ j • • Minutes - Parks, Recreation & approved Natural Resources Commission -3- July 7, 1980 Tangen asked that the records reflect that though he was not present at the last meeting he has read the June 16 mir.'res carefully and stands knowledgeable in approving this prc?csaI. Resident ;:orin said that the representative of the developer said, after the June 16 meeting, that he would arrange a meeting with concerned residents and he never followed through on this. R. Anderson asked that comments close as the vote has been made. Re said he walked over the site personally, and feels the vote was a responsible one and that residents surrounding this development have more parks and open space as a result of this proposal than most other puts of the Cit;;. Andorson suggested that residents approach the Council (call them before the meeting) about this issue if they are dissatisfied, as tho Council has the final decision on approving this proposal. • • • 200L +- \ � . • 1 Minutes - Parks, Recreation do approved June 16, 1990 Natural Resources Commission -2- MEMBERS ABSENT: Tangen and Van Meter B. Reports of Staff 1. Development Proposals i a. Timber Creek Lambert introduced Jack Lynch of BRIT Architects, and Rick . Murray of B-T Land Co., developer of the project. Lynoh gave a brief overview of the 150 acre project. He said d there are a total of 258 residential units planned, 136 being single family, 120 quadraminiums, 48 eightlex units. There are 2 parks planned, one approximately 7- acres, and the other approximate) 10 acres. Thirty-five acres of the site are in conservancy/flood plain and will be left in a natural state. This plan works out to a density of 1.72 including the parks. t The north and south portions of the development are each served i by a loop road. At this point the architect opened up the i discussion to the Commission.members and general public. s There were approximately 30 members of the general publio present. 1 Resident Chris Rodenkirchen, 15554 Park Terrace Drive, asked 1 if all the lots in the development are over the 13,500 sq. ft. i. minimum set by the City. Lynch replied that all the lots on the north side of the flood plain are at least 13,500 sq. ft., ' but some on the south side are not due to the configuration of 3 the land. Rick Murray stepped forward to explain that some of l the lot sizes are smaller in order to save the environmentally !. sensitive areas and not infringe on,the flood plain. Lambert added that the 13,500 r..-. ft. lot size is a minimum established for straight zoning development. Staff feels the developer has made an acceptable effort to preserve the environ- mentally sensitive areas of this site through the PUB request. Resident Rodenkirchen asked in what order development would oocur—first single family, then multiple, or what? Lynch and Murray pointed out that B-T Land is a developer and not a home builder. B-T Land will sell finished areas (utilities in) to contractors, builders, or individuals to purchase and build on so they will have no control over the order of development . Resident Joseph Morin, 15820 South Eden Drive, asked what the "conservancy" area represents as shown in the plan. Lambert explained that conservancy land is acreage set aside on either side of Purgatory Creek to be left in an undisturbed or natural state. Be further explained that when a development proposal is considered, the City compares the proposal to the oonservancy guidelines outlined in the Brauer Purgatory Creek ( Study done for Eden Prairie in 1976. Specifically, for the • Minutes — Parks, Recreation & approved June 16, 1980 Natural Resources Commission -3- i area of this proposal, the Brauer Study suggested 60 acres per 'lineal mile of Creek be set aside as conservancy area. As this development is proposed, the conservancy area is 80 acres y per lineal mile. Resident William Kannenberg, 15909 W. 62nd St., asked what will happen to W. 62nd St. as far as upgrading, etc., if this development is approved. R. Anderson said it is not the role of this Commission to answer questions on roads. Lambert . clarified this point saying that this Coamissicn is concerned with park issues only i.e., sidewalks, trail systems and that the natural resources of a site are being preserved, hills maintained, eto. • He suggested that perhaps the question of roads be brought to the Planning Commission instead. Resident Morin felt serious attention should be given to the • hill area of the site (north) where single family lots are planned, and consider it instead for park land. He said it is a beautiful knoll and in his opinion not suitable for development. Rick Murray stated that they have worked with the City for 6 months on this proposal and have exceeded the 10% required park land dedication. Lambert gave some background on this property. In the past, the City had this property appraised and the Council voted not to purchase it for park land. Also, according to the City's overall park and open space plan, this proposal offers 'more park land than the City had originally designated. Lambert suggested that if the residents feel strongly enough, they should petition for more park land, if this is their desire, and bring their petition to the Council for consideration. Resident Paul Choiniere, 15819 North Widen Drive, said there are still 185 existing homes in this area that don't have a park. He said this area was originally going to serve the residents of Paradise Valley, and now the Park Commission is not following through on the park plan. He further pointed out that there is not access to the proposed park for neighbors of the area and these people should have park service. R. Anderson pointed out that when the 1975 park bond referendum to purchase park land in this area failed, nothing more could be done. Then, when the City was updating the guideplan in 1979, Drawer& Associates held public meetings for citizen input. It was in the Guide Plan Update of 1979 where the change occurred to make two parks (east & west) on this property instead of one park. Residents, led by Mr. Choiniere, said at this point that they • were not notified of the public meetings therefore not well represented. • 2002 Linutes -Parks, Recreation & ,approved June 16, 1980 natural Resources Commission -4- Resident Rodenkirchen stated that in his opinion, the main problem with this proposal is access by neighbors in the area. , There should be good pedestrian and bike access, and Townline Road is already so heavily travelled it should not be expected to handle more traffic. Lambert asked for a specific suggestion from Mr. Rodenkirchen to help solve the problems he speaks of. Rodenkirchen said widening and improvement of Townline Road. • Resident klilliam 1(annenberg said that as the proposal is now, • these parks are private. He also asked about access to the Creek and is there a bike path planned along the Creek so others could enjoy this natural amenity. Mr. Kannenberg asked if an environmental impact study was ever done for this area--as to what would happen to the wildlife if development occurred. Also, what kind of parks will these be, playground or nature areas. Lambert responded that an environmental impact study is not required for this area. As far as the type of parks built, con- cept plans will be designed for these parks, and neighborhoods will be notified for concept review. The final plan is then developed reflecting the needs and desires of the neighborhood. Lambert reminded the audience that these are defined as "neighborhood" parks to serve a z mile radius, not community parks which serve a large portion of the population. R. Anderson asked residents to voice opinions tonight on what kind of parks they want. Resident Morin wants to see park area expanded to include part of the hill (north side of flood plain) and to see access from the east implemented. R. Anderson asked how the Creek valley (conservancy area) is proposed to be used. Lambert said people will own the lots but the conservancy is considered a "no-build" area. The developer has already dedicated park land so nothing is planned for the flood plain in the Creek area. Lainbert further said that with most proposals along the Creek, the flood plain is dedicated to the City, but this developer has not committed anything to this effect as yet. R. Anderson said he feels the Creek should have been access from the east. Resident Choiniere expressed feelings that the park dedication of this proposal should be restructured with more attention given to the Park and Open Space Stidy. He feels this proposal is too incomplete for action to be taken at this time. 200(3) •ti • 10 linutes - Parks, Recreation & approved June 16, 1980 Natural Resources Commission -5- i Lambert reminded the Commission that the Parks do Open Space Study Nr. Choiniere refers to is only schematio, and the City's Five Year Capital Improvement Plan (1979 - 1983) does include these two parks. • Resident Harold Trocke, 15801 W. 62nd St., said he has lived in this area for 15 years and there has never been a park for kids near him. Now a new development is proposed and parks are planned for a few residents that aren't even living there yet. Kr. Trocke feels the entire hibl.area (north side of Creek) should be park space and left in its natural state. • ii Johnson asked Lambert if he is satisfied with the layout of this development proposal. Lambert answered, yes. Pond expressed feeling that It is reasonable these residents get what they want, and the new residents can decide when they buy a lot whether they like the arrangement or not. Existing residents should have more consideration on matters like this. NOTION: Pond moved to recommend that the Council reject this pro- posal because the residents already living in this area should have more consideration than the people yet to owe. R. Anderson seconded the motion.

Jack Lynch, Bather, Ringroase, Woldsfeld, Jarvis, gave a brief .presentation explaining the changes in the development proposals. ( • The Planner went over the staff report dated April 9. 1980. Levitt inquired about the density of this project. • 2011 Planning Commission Minutes -2- April 14, 1980 The Planner went over the various ways to look at the density of this project. He explained that the overall gross density of this project is 1.69 units/acre. Bentley inquired what type of vegetation there is on this site, and if any plans were made for vegetation preservation. The Planner explained that the southern site had a mixed hardwood forest. The townhome lots would have to be made larger if portions of the woods were to be preserved. Bentley inquired what type of construction,if any, was allowed in the conservancy zone. The Planner replied that the Conservancy line was a 'no build' line beyond which there should be no grading, cutting of vege- tation or building construction. • 4 Retterath inquired about the encroachment into the flood plain. 9 Lynch replied that there will be no building within the flood plain but,that the proposed single family home lot lines in the southern portion of this project will extend into the flood plain. Levitt inquired if it were possible for the two cul-de-sacs in the northern section of the southwestly portion of this site i to be connected to form a through road. The Planner stated that because of substaintial grade change between these two cul-de-sacs it would not be possible. Levitt inquired how residents other than those who will live in the proposed project will obtain access to the parks. The Planner replied that the parks are adjoining existing development. Because of very round-about road systems only the central 1/3 of the subdivision will have direct access to the northern park. The balance of the existing residential area could benefit from access easements which the City may choose to negotiate. Levitt stated that he feels the townhomes are screened well from the existing single family homes with the exception of those in the north and stated that he feels something should be done to screen them as well. Paul Choiniere, 15819 North Eden Drive, stated that he felt the park areas should be designed so they can be used for winter acitivities as well as summer ones. He stated that most parks are ball fields or tennis courts and the childern no longer have a place to slide in the winter. He also stated that he does not feel the lots should encroach into the flood plain. Mike Reuter, 6602 Rainbow Drive, stated that he felt before any type of development was done on this site some type of road improvements should be done on Townline Road. u�rZ • Planning Commission Minutes -3- April 14, 1980 ( The Planner stated that the City has requested that the developer pave Townline Road to his western boundary at the time of development of the northern parcel. He also stated that the City is continuing to work with Minnetonka and Hennepin County to develop a program of contruction for improvement of Townline Road. Greg Beauvais, 15724 Park Terrace Drive, stated that he also 7. is concerned about the park access to residents other than those which will live in the proposed_,development. Steve Stensgaard, 6544 Eden Prairie Road, stated that he would like to see the townhomes completely removed from this project. Paul Brown 17100 Duck Lake Trail, inquired about the access to County Road 4. The Planner stated that Hennepin County had reviewed to site lines for this access and felt, with widening on both sides of the road for by-pass, acceleration and deceleration lanes, the access would be safe.

He stated that in doing this study they found that the type of soil density on the slopes Would not hold this type of development. He also stated that a great deal of lets back yard exposure rest into the high flood plain area. He stated that Townline Rend is not designed in a way that it could handle too much mere traffic. The area the developer has recognized for a park is a glacial pond. He inquired if this development is consistent with D.N.R and what the County is planning for a Crosstown road. John Price, 16680 Honeysuckle Lane. stated that he feels there should be better transition in this development, that he lives . in a single family home and that the developer is planning to build quadraminiums on the land next to his home.

MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council • • THRU: Roger K. Ulstad, City Manager FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services '12446— DATE: August 15, 1980 SUBJECT: Community Services Staff Comments Regarding Residents Report to the Eden Prairie Planning Commission on Timber Creek Development The Community Services staff feels that it is necessary to provide the City Council with staff comments regarding the residents report on the Timber Creek Development as part of the City Council's review of this proposal. Staff recognizes the concerns of the neighbors in wanting to preserve a very beautiful natural area, but staff is forced to disagree with the rationale for preservation. The rationale being used by the residents is basically that they live in an older neighborhood that has never been provided with a park. Birch Island Park is a 17 acre nature park that is adjacent to Edenview and Kurtz Lane. The Community Services staff recommended two neighborhood parks within this development, because the purpose of neighborhood parks is to provide active use areas within walking distance of children within the neighborhood. The City has adopted a plan that defines a neighborhood park as "areas of intense recreational activity intending to meet the needs of five to seventeen year olds. Typical development includes play apparatus, field game areas, court games and skating. Service area of one square mile." Due to the location of Purgatory Creek dividing this area of the community, staff felt it made more sense to provide two smaller neighborhood parks to serve both sides of the creek. The service area of this park is generally west of the Chicago Milwakee Railroad Line, north of Duck Lake Trail and east of Duck Lake Road. The question that needs to be addressed at this time is: Is the wooded hill a significant natural resource that should be preserved for public use? If the City Council feels this hill should be preserved for public open space, then that area should be added to the northern most neighborhood park. However, staff feels that would be a mistake to eliminate the southern most park site as a trade-off to preserve this hill. The active use park located on Ouck Lake Trail will become a necessity when this area and the area to the west is developed. The people living in that neighborhood have obviously enjoyed the use of that high wooded area for many years, and the Community Services staff does support . their recommendation for City Council consideration of acquisition of this parcel for public park purposes. Staff does question need for 35 acres and staff would not support the recommendation that this park be accessible only from walking trails, bike paths, cross country trails or walking type bridges across the creek and marshland. If the City is to acquire that amount of parkland for public use, the City should also insure all residents in the City ZOl'1 • -2- adequate access by automobile. Preservation of this type of a resource would constitute more than a neighborhood park and would be comparable to Birch Island Community Park on County Road 4.

BACKGROUND On January 21, 1980, B.T. Land Company applied for Planned Unit Development Concept approval. The original plan included six, eightplexes on the northwest portion of the site, about seven acres of park north of Purgatory Creek, and no park south of the creek. This plan was presented at the February 11, 1980, Planning Commission meeting. . There were many questions brought up and the item was continued to March 24 and sub- sequently to April 14, to allow the proponent time for revision and to answer questions. Prior to the staff report and the April 14, 1980 Planning Commission meeting, the developer substantially changed the plan to respond to recommendations. The changes at that time included: 1. Elimination of the proposed commercial site at the intersection of Duck Lake Trail and C.S.A.H. 4. 2. Elimination of the eightplexes north of Purgatory Creek. 3. Inclusion of a 6.8 acre park south of Purgatory Creek and enlargement of the park north of the creek to 10.2 acres. 4. Introduction of an additional housing type rather than all of the multiple south of the creek being quads. 5. Reduction of units from 306 to 258. When the Planning Commission reviewed this revised plan with the Planning Staff report of April 9, they voted 3-3 to recommend approval of the PUD to the City Council. The proponent has appeared before the Park and Recreationand Natural Resources Commission, and revised the plan to meet with their approval. Since these revisions includeuitemswhich the Planning Comnission had recommended, the proponent wishes to present these changes to the Commission for their recommendation. The changes 2ui 9 Memo--Timber Creek -2- August 8, 1980 which the Commission had requested and the developer has accomplished are as follows: 1. In the southwestern area of the plan, the quad units have been pulled further out of the woods for more preservation. 2. Area has been added as a pedestrian access to the northwestern corner of the southern park. 3. The northern park has been 'squared off' as requested and .2 acre added. 4. The cul-de-sac leading to the northern park has been pulled southwest off of the top of the knoll to more correctly fit the topography. 5. The multiple area south of the creek and adjacent to the western property line has been modified to condominiums to consolidate the units and allow more open space adjacent to future single family. These lots have been increased from 130 feet in depth to 210 feet. The proponent has committed to a detailed land- scaping a berming plan at the time of rezoning for this site. 6. Open areas between lots have been provided to give access to Purgatory Creek. 7. Because of bad soil problems on Townline Road, one of the entrances to the northern single family area has been moved west. 8. Trail easements along Duck Lake Trail and C.S.A.H. 4 will be provided. R9, Becalse of the inclusion of the condominium hui dinns, the total units has increased iron 253 to 258. (cross density 1.72, net density 1.95). 10. Road access has been added to connect the southern area with future develop- ment to the west. i The concept of this development is to provide a mix of housing types (single family free standing -- single family clustered) integrated with ample passive (38 acres) and active (18 acres) open space all at a density under 2 units per acre. This is a concept that the Comprehensive Guide Plan.encourages. The Guide Plan illustrates this area as low density (2 u/a) but specifically encourages mix of housing type and the clustering concept in order to accomplish this. The proponent has worked with the Commission and Staff in order to reach this point. Very specific planning has been done to answer questions even though we are at the Concept stage. The proponent will be returning to the Commission with specific requests for buildings at the time of rezoning and platting. • The plan as revised is consistent with Cbmission recommendations and the Compre- hensive Guide Plan. RECO'1MENDAT i ONS 'The Planning Staff recommends approval of the PUD Concept plan dated 6/13/80. CE:ss 2020 • MEMORANDUM T0: Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission i FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services DATE: June 23, 1980 SUBJECT: Timber Creek Development Proposal On June 16, 1980, Jack Lynch of BRW Architects and Rick Murray of 8-T Land Co. presented the Timber Creek Development Proposal 'to the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission. The proposal for developing 150 acres west of County Road 4, north of Duck Lake Trail includes 258 residential units. There • are two neighborhood parks to be dedicated, a 10 acre park north of the creek and a 71 acre park south of the creek. There is also 35 acres of open space adjacent to the creek to be left in its natural state. Staff.recommended approval of this plan pointing out the density of this proposed PUD would be 1.72 including the park area and approximately 2 units per acre excluding the park area. Staff pointed out that the park dedication of approximately 18 acres exceeded the 10°a mimimum established by ordinance, and that the parks are located as proposed in the 1979 Comprehensive Park Plan that was approved by the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission and the City Countil in 1979. At the June 16 meeting there were approximately 20 residents in the audience that were concerned with the Timber Creek proposal. The majority of the concerns expressed from residents was access to these parks, especially to the park north of the creek. The other concern of the residents was that the high hill northwest of the northern most part was being developed rather than preserved in open space. The motion by the Commission was as follows: "Pond moved to recommend that the Council reject this proposal because the residents already living in this area should have more consideration than the people yet to come. R.Anderson seconded the motion. Motion was approved 4-1 with all voting "aye" except Dave Anderson voting "naye"." On June 17 Rick Murrray called to ask what he should do now. We discussed the general feeling of the residents that attended the meeting and the members of the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission. I indicated that I felt the major two concerns were access to the northern most park and preserving the knoll to the northwest. I suggested that he return to the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission showing the trail easement from County Road 4 to the northern most park and a trail easement across Purgatory Creek connecting the two residential areas and giving both areas access to the creek valley. lie indicated that he already exceeded the requirement for dedication of parks but would return with this proposal if the City agreed to purchase the easements. I indicated that I would recommend the City paying for trail easements if he proposed a reasonable price. There would be two ways to accomplish preservation of the knoll to the northwest of the northern most park. The first way would be to eliminate the 8 acre park south of the creek and reshape the northern most park to an 18 acre parcel. This would eliminate 8 acres of active use area that would serve residents north of Duck Lake and west of County Road 4 in exchange for a high knoll that offers a good sliding hill and a beautiful view of the valley to residents north of the 2021 -2- creek and west of County Road 4. Staff agrees with the residents that the high knoll is a beautiful park site and certainly is appreciated by many residents. However, the primary purpose of the neighborhood parks system is to provide active use areas within walking distance of each residential area. The Commission should be reminded that some of the information expressed by the residents at the Juno 16 meeting was not totally accurate. One of the residents indicated that there was no access from the Edenview area to this park, when in fact there is public access from the cast from a cul-de-sac on Creekview Lane. A copy of the half section map is attached to this memo showing 100' of public frontage. It was also pointed out that residents in this area voted in 1968 to acquire this property for parkland and they have been waiting ever since for thb City to acquire it. In fact, in 1968 the park bond referendLm was for acquisition of lakeshore property and the City in turn acquired Birch Island Lake Park, a nature park, directly across County Road 4 from the Edenview Development. With the existing access off of Creekview Lane,and a proposed access from County Road 4,and the access as proposed from the west through the cul-de-sac in the proposed development, this northern most park would have access from three sides. The southern park would also have access from three sides,directly off of Duck Lake Trail to the south, also from the subdivision as proposed to the northeast, and to future development in the northwest. I believe Mr. Murray has proposed a satisfactory answer to the concerns of the Commission in regards to access of both of these parks and the creek area. Although, it is easier to agree with residents that are before the Commission, at this time, the Commission has a responsibility of making decisions for development of parks that will ultimately serve all of the residents in the community. If the S acres on the south side of the creek is moved to the north side of the creek to acquire the hill, it may be very difficult five years from now to face the hundreds of residents that will eventually live between Duck Lake Road and Purgatory Creek and tell them that there is no land left for development of an active use play area. • The Commission has faced many homeowner groups in the last couple of years that have asked why the City did not plan ahead and acquire parks prior to having all of the property developed. "Now our kids have to play ball in the cul-de-sacs" is a familiar statement from neighborhoods that don't have active use areas planned within a reasonable service area. This will certainly be the case if the City does not take the opportunity to acquire this 8 acre neighborhood park adjacent to Duck Lake Trail. Staff recommends the Commission reconsider the Timber Creek Development Proposal that now solves the concerns for access to these parks and recommends the Commission approve the development as proposed.

STAFF RECO?PIICNDATIONS:_Spe Attached Silent 2021 • • MEMRORANDUM TO: Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Scrvices. DATE: June 12, 1980 SUBJECT: Timber Creek Development Proposal STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS This development proposal has been before the Planning Commission on several occasions. The Planning Commission finally had a 3-3 vote for approval on April 14, 1980. The major concern seemed to be related to park issues. Since that time the developer made several changes requested by staff including the following: 1. Enlarging the east park site by reshaping lot line intrusions into the recommended park space. • 2. Enlarging the west park site by providing a wider access and an access to the west. ( 3. Dedicating a public access to the floodplain from the northwest. 4. Relocating the townhouses in the S. E. area to preserve more of the trees. The main park related issues of this proposal are the location and size of the neighborhood parks, and the location of the line defining the conservancy area along the creek. Neighborhood Parks There is at least 1 resident of the Eden View subdivision that is disappointed that the 18 acres of dedicated neighborhood parkland is not located in one area - adjacent to Eden View. The Neighborhood Facilities Study shows two different alternatives to a neighborhood park in this location - a 12 acre site and a 20+ acre site both alternatives are"one site north of the creek adjacent to Eden View:' In 1979 when the City updated the Guide Plan and adopted the Comprehensive Park Plan, this concept for a neighborhood park in one location to serve both sides of the creek was changed. The new concept showed a 7 acre park cast of the creek and a 6 acre park west of the creek. Both park sites arc to be developed as active use parks with ballficlds and tennis courts. The staff, the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission and tho City Council agreed that this approach provided more accessible parks for the majority of the people in the service arca. If it is located on one side of the creek, obviously half the people have to cross the creek to get to their neighborhood park. 202S .2— Conservancy Zone The Purgatory Creek Study provides a map at 800 scale showing a proposed conservancy zone in green tones. This is the area that should be preserved for protection of the resources within the corridor. In this sector, sixty acres/lineal creek mile was recommended for conservancy. "In reality the limits of the conservancy arc flexible - adapting to specific • site conditions, (landscape form and features)." While the green area in the study indicates a general conservancy area in each sector, each development proposal should be evaluated at a much larger scale in order to delineate a conservancy area that serves the purpose intended - to protect the resources within the corridor. In the Timber Creek proposal, the floodplain alone preserves in excess of the recommended 60 acres/lineal mile recommended for the conservancy area. Based on the topography, staff has drawn a proposed line for the conservancy area. This line follows tree lines, ridge lines and in some cases merely is a line connecting two knolls or a ridge line with a knoll. This conservancy lino is less than the green area shown in the study, but exceeds the 60 acre/lineal mile also recommended in the study. In fact, it approaches 80 acres/lineal mile. It can be argued that there are some areas beyond this line that should be within the conservancy area, however, 80 acres/lineal mile is getting to the point of being unreasonable with the developer. Community Services staff recommends approval of the plat as per the April 9, 1980 Planning Staff Report and with the changes shown by the developer at the June 16 Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission meeting. BL:md i A 2026 STAFF REPORT • TO: Planning Commission FROM: Chris Enger, Director of Planning PROJECT: Timber Creek FEE OWNER: B-T Land Company DEVELOPER: B-T Land Company PROJECT REQUEST: Planned Unit Development Concept Stage approval for 150 gross acres of property for residential uses of 253 total units made up of 76 townhome units, 40 townhuuse units, 137 single family lots. PROJECT LOCATION: Project is located on the northern border of Eden Prairie just west of County Road 4 and the Eden View subdivision and is bisected diagonally by Purgatory Creek, DATE: April 9, 1980. • BACKGROUND The original request from the proponent was for a PUD Concept approval on 150 acres for 136 single family lots, 120 quadraminium units, 48 eightplex units and a 2.3 acre Community Commercial site. After the initial public hearing before the Planning Commission and subsequent meetings with Planning and Community Services Staff members,the proponent has re- vised the proposal to the scope listed under project request of this report. The community commercial site has been eliminated, the eightplexes have been eliminated and two neighborhood park areas totalling approximately 17 acres have been incorporated within the project. An addtional building type has been added in the multiple section,on the property south of the creek,in the form of approximately 40 units of townhomes which can be de- signed in such a way as to acconnodate a drop-in grade across the site. These units,when designed,should more properly respect the hill form. The 1979 Guide Plan Update illustrates the area of this project as low density residential not to exceed 2 units/acre. The area of flood plain is designated in the Guide Plan as being an amenity to preserve from devel- opment. The 1979 Guide Plan allows for preservation of significant natural resources,such as flood plain through the use of a density transfer. In this case,flood plain makes up about 38 acres of the total 150 acres. The existing zoning on the site is Rural on the higher portions and Flood Plain zoning on the flood plain area of the site. In 1972 there was a submission for a PUD on this site combined with 35 acres of additional land lying both east of County Road 4 and South of Duck Lake Trail,cal led Eden Farms,by the Shelter Corporation, This PUD Development had a gross density of 2.7 units/acre and was made up of townhouses and cluster homes. That project was approved in 1973 and this approval was rescinded in September of 1974. Currently the property south of Duck Lake Trail that was part of the original PUD is owned by the Assembly of God Church and has been rezoned for that purpose. The property of single Timber Creek -2- April 9, 1980 family lots (approximately 13 acres east of County Road 4) is not included at this time under the 8-T Land Company's ownership. LAND USE AND DENSITY The new plan proposes preservation of the entire flood plain area, provision of a 6.8 acre park adjacent to the Trumpy Country Vista single family area in the southwest portion of Timber Creek PUD, and a 10.2 acre park to he dedicated north of Purgatory Creek and adjacent to the Eden View subdivision. The remainder of the land area north of the flood plain not provided as park is planned for large lot single family of 63 units on 34.5 residential acres for a total of 1.83 units per acre. This is a net density only including the area of lots. The area south of the Purgatory Creek flood plain contains 74 single family lots which include approximately 1.8 acres of flood plain along the back of some of the lots. This total area,including the small area of flood plain,would bring the density to 2.18 units/acre. If the flood plain acreage along the back of the lots is subtracted the lot net density would be 2.3 units/acre. The aqudrarninium area by itself is 76 units on 13.8 acres fora total of 5.5 units/acre. The townhouse area is a total of 7.38 acres for 40 units bringing the density to 5.4 units/acre net. The overall gross density of the development including all residential, area,all park area, and all flood plain area is 1.7 units/acre. 'Since the proponent con- templates dedicating the two park areas to the City as fullfillment of his 10% land dedication requirement,these areas should be subtracted from the total acreage when figuring density transfer credit. In a more complete dis- cussion on the acceptability of these park areas to the Planning and Com- munity Services Staff will occur later in the report. for the purposes of density calculation (since some of the northern park is within the flood plain area and it contains a small pond)15 total acres or 10% of the 150 total acreage will be used as a subtraction when figuring density. If 15 acres is subtracted from 150 acres,that would leave 135 acres available f for the 2 unit/acre density. This would enable the developer,hypothetically, to obtain 270 units on the property. At this point the develop is pro- posing 253 and the staff feels that pending specific site plan review this is generally within an acceptable range. The overall density minus the park areas then'would be 1.9 units/acre. The 1973 Shelter Eden Farms proposal had a gross density including all flood plain and open space areas of 2.7 units/ acre for a total of 443 dwelling 1 units. ) i PURGATORY CREEK STUDY y The PurgatoryCreekStudy delineates a' Conservancy Zone basically paralleling 1. the flood plain of Purgatory Creek ment to follow significant ridge lines. 4 This zone,as applies to this property is somewhat general and is shown on material submitted by the proponent. The Planning and Conununity Services Staff feel that the proposal is basically in conformance with the Conser- vancy Zone. . SHORCLAND MANAGEMENT ACT 1 1 The Shoreland Management Act as amended in first reading by the City Council with recommendation from the Connnission,would classify Purgatory Creek as a General development water and would require lots adjacent to the creek to be a 1 minimum of 13.500 sq. ft., have a nrininunn width at the building line of 90' i and be set back a minium 100 from the creek bed as well as being 90' in width 2U27 Timber Creek -3- April 9, 1980 "minimum at the creek bed. The general layout of the lots shown in the PUD appear to allow the possibility of conforming to these restrictions in the preliminary and final plat to follow. FLOOD PLAIN The City's Flood Plain ordinance #276 requires a permit to fill within any flood plain area. There will also be a permit required to work within the flood plain area from the Department of Natural Resources as some of the area is classified as public wetland. The work contemplated within the flood plain area is limited to the construction of two storm water ponds and a small ribbon of filling for lots on the northern side of Pur- gatory Creek. EXISTING SITE CHARACTER The Proponent has provided a brochure and worked with the City on the com- pletion of an E.A.W. These documents give a complete description of soil, topography, vegetation, surface water, drainage, and wildlife, Detailed soil types are listed within the development brochure and basically have the following characteristics. The majority of the area north of the Pur- gatory Creek flood plain is made up of slopes in excess of 15% and within the Heyder Sandy Load Comples. The basic development restriction within this area is due to the high cost of installing streets and utilities brought about if the grade of the land is not respected. The development as proposed plans a road system with the slope of the land rather than against. Large lots with walkout home sites will make it Possible to build with the land. Any area which is graded and left un restored is subject to severe erosion and building on a slope and soil type such as this must be done with extreme caution. The area of slope directly south of Purgatory Creek,which is roughly half of that portion of the site,is identical in soil characteristic and slope to the area north of Purgatory Creek. The balance of the site occuring in the southern 1/3 of the development is flat and the main soil concern is the hazard of wet basements if the site is not graded properly for drainage, Drain tile should be used around all foundation areas. The soil characteristics of the Timber Creek area are absolutely identical to the soil charateristics of the existing Eden View subdivision. The area'is steeply rolling and contains sandy erosive soil on the side slopes. With care during construction and a proper road and development plan,these areas can be developed very nicely. AQUIFER RECHARGE Although this area has been illustrated as a potential aquifer recharge area, the only potential for this exists in the small, low lying areas of the site and the flood plain area that consistantly ponds water, Aquifer recharge is a process of water standing in a depressed area over a long period of time and percolating down through the earth to recharge various aquifer levels. The Jordon Aquifer in this area (which the City obtains its drinking water from)is in excess of 400 ft, below the surface. The recharge area for the Jordon Aquifer is located in the Anoka sand plains.The low land areas of the site will be preserve and additional water deverted to them. Addi- tion ponding areas will he created and therefore any acquifer recharge to the ground water in the area will be enhanced not degraded. 2OM Timber Creek -4- April 9, 1980 VEGETATION The major vegetation in the northern portion of this site occurs on the high hill proposed for the large lot single family development. As proposed,the devel- opment will negotiate the grade at 7% and provide walkout lots. Grading of the road bed will generally be limited to the road R.O.W. and additional grading will be required as individual homes are built. However, because of the large lot area on this hill,the amount of vegetation that will be disturbed will be small in proportion to the amount preserved. There is a significant area of hard wood deciduous vegetation made up of oak and basewood occurinq south of Purgatory Creek on the site of the old farmstead. This area will be altered significantly by the placement of the quadraminiums within this arca. It would be enhanced and preserved through the use of larger lots for the quadraminiums, fewer gaudraminiums, and a careful matching of the grade proposed for construction to the existing grade. Mathing grade would allow maximum preservation of trees between structures. There is an'existing farmstead adjacent to Duck Lake Trail without buildings that is not proposed to be preserved. ORDINANCE REQUIREMENTS Although zones are not specifically addressed within the PUD Concept Stage, all of the lots for single family lying north of Purgatory Creek appear to have the potential to meet the requirements of the 13.5 catagory of Ordinance 135. The single family area south of Purgatory Creek will meet Shoreland Management Ordinance requirements and requirements of 135 for those lots abutting the Creek. However, there are a small number of lots on the south side of the loop road which may fall short of the 13.5 requirement and this waiver could be allowed under the PUO approval. The townhouses and townhomes are all proposed on lots that would meet the RM 6.5 or 6;500 se. ft. of lot area/unit, minimum of Oridance 135, No set- back variances are requested at this time. SITE PLAN Grading The plan itself is laid out basically very well to correlate specific land uses with existing grades. The townhome or auadraminium portion of the . PUD is planned on the large flat area of the site because these units require flat sites and do not accommdate changes in grade. Townhouses or row townhouses which can be designed as walkout units are planned for the slope of the site. Single family homes also can be planned as walk- outs built with the slope of the site. The most significant grading on the site will take place south of Purgatory Creek in the single family portion of the site in order to accommodate the road. No grading should occur as a part of the PUD concept approval. Detailed grading plans accommodating unit types and showing actual street grade and grading reguircd for utilities should acompany proposals for rezoning and preliminary platting. 200 Timber Creek -5- April 9, 1980 TRANSPORTATION Discussion on transportation can be broken into two sections: 1. the area lying north of Purgatory Creek; 2. the area lying south of Purgatory • Creek taking access from Duck Lake Trail and County Road 4. 1. The 63 single family lots planned north of Purgatory Creek are contem- plated as high value single family lots with a slow obsortion rate and very slow current market. These lots would take access fromTownline Road which currently is black topped to the project's eastern access point(or the intersection of Woodland Drive and Scenic Heights Road). Town- line Road east of this project is currently black topped to County Road 4 and is 21 ft. wide with no curb or gutter. This road cur- rently serves the Eden View First Addition traffic which is made up of approximately 70 units. Approximately 12 of these units front on Townline Road. April 1980 count on Townline Road indicate that the peek hour use of Townline Road it approximately 133 trips. This itidicates an average daily trip number on Townline Road of around 1,300 trips. Although two to four cars were observed at various periods during the peak hour waiting to turn on to County Road 4,there were no significant delays observed. Total development of these 63 lots proposed by Timber Creek would be expected to be at least 5 years from today. At that point the develop- ment would contribute 630 average daily trips to the 1,3D0 currently on Townline Road and approximately 63 peak hour trips to the 133 currently experienced. Although this represents a 50% increase the Planning Staff does not feel that this development represents a problem which will ulti- mately have to be resolved on Townline Road. The basic problem will come from development which may be anticipated in the future occurring west of this project which will add to the traffic on Townline Road. Townline Road west of Woodland Drive has a very poor profile and is a gravel surface. The Planning Staff would recommend that the current developer pave To mline Road to his western boundery at the time of development of the northern parcel and that the City continue to work with Minnetonka and Hennepin County to develop a program of construction • for improvement of Townline Road. The area proposed south of Purgatory Creek take approximately half of its area access from County Road 4. This area could be expected to generate approximately 740 average daily trips toward County Road 4 with a daily peak of approximately 74 cars. There are approximately 7,500 trips per • day currently existing on County Road 4. The County has done a sight line study of the proposed access and does suggest that the developer provide a deceleration and acceleration lane on the east side of County Road 4. In addition the City Staff has suggested and obtained concerrt'nce from the County that an additional safety feature should be provided by the developer on the east side of County Road 4. This would be a bypass lane identical in length and width to the improvement requested on the west side of County Road 4.

Duck Lake Trail according to April 1980 counts)is carrying approximately 3,550 average daily trips at the intersection of County Road 4 and Duck Lake Trail. This is a peak hour of approximately 350 trips. Our traffic study in- dicated a. many as 8 cars backed up on approach to County Road 4, how- a ever, significant delays were not observed. With the construction of Valley View Road to the south of Duck Lake Trail, our traffic analysis indicates that a reduction of approximately 2,500 trips will occur on Duck Lake Trail. Taking into account landvacant being development west of the Timber Creek project,approximately 1,130 new trips could be expected in the future. This would bring the total on Duck Lake Trail with Valley View Road in place to 2,233 trips. Timber Creek 9 would add approximately 760 average daily trips for a total of 3;120 trips at Duck Lake Trail and County Road 4. This would be approximately 400 trips less at full development of Eden Prairie then exists today on Duck Lake Trail and County Road 4. The Planning and Engineering Staff suggested that the City plan to swing a portion of Duck Lake Trail slightly to the south of its current inter- section with County Road 4 inorder to bring it to a right angle. This 1 small tapering to the south would be accommodated on a small portion of land of the Assembly of God Church. As a part of that development pro- I posal the Assembly of God Church agreed to provide area for the realign- ment of Duck Lake Trail. The center line Of the proposed alignment of Duck Lake Trail would then be 300 feet south of the next anticipated center line intersection (which would occur on the east side of County Road 4.) It would also be approximately 1,100 feet south of the proposed Timber Creek access to County Road 4. This new location of Duck Lake Trail (to bring it to a 90° angle with County Road 4)is recommended by the City Engineering Department and Hennepin County and will meet sight line standard established by the County. CIRCULATION The Planning Staff feels this project isolates itself in terms oInanuded an overall road system from the properties occurring to the west, is a figure which shows a suggestion for provision of a stub road to the property's western property line to allow future connection with future potential development to the west. The graphic illustrated shows a hypothetical possible development pattern to the west. Placement of the stub road and the location show would separate the single family area in Timber Creek from the quadraminium area with a road. LAND USE The Planning Staff feels that the addition of the 6.8 acre park in the southwestern area of the Timber Creek proposal is an improvement in that it places a park directly adjacent to existing single family (toward the west)rather than multiple development. However, there are 5 quadramrinium lots still adjoining four 5 acre single family lots to the west. Although vegetation occurs along the fence line, much of this is elm and may he expected to die in the future. In addition, the area shown for townhouses along the northeast facing slope is very narrow and seems to require that the row townhouses be accessed directly from the City Street. 2053 , ' •• 7 7,...1 ':j.,,,I...',.:,,N',::N.....,...:., ,,N.N... . •••••i,,_12...1,..,,,./ ..0 • . .,.i \ ...,, .; • ! 3::.',Chathal d. .; . additional - \-''/ ..:../:, {\, I i l�open space II` -` \r/"open space ...\,s,W • \ , �. ;S - ,. \ possible :.( ,, _-1� \ n, ,\ /. -, .. , through s Ir�:�"'--I /`�. • . street woo y' L. �� �_ .2...:7> ,1 . 1 • U gito } i 1 J,1 r •`'= U :I--'POO SIBCE' .. \-�1---�^�,\'` _;' r, �.. \_ / f� • • ,a.," »lW al., -- r r , r—.

The Planning Staff would recommend that the quadraminium area adjacent to the western single family area be expanded in width in order to allow space for a vegetation and gradting buffer and transi- 1 tion of land use. The area left for townhouses along the northeast facing slope should expanded as well in order to provided for a private road access to these units rather then direct access to public road. The quadraminium lots within thewooded area should be expanded in size ' in order to allow more potential for preservation of vegetation between units. PARKS The Community Services staff finds that the southern park area is accept- able. The northern park area should be expanded by extending the western north/south boundary of the park straight north to make the area totally rectangular rather than allowing a triangularprotrusion of three lots down into the park: In addition the Community Services Staff has made recommendations requesting access outlots between some of the lots to allow pedestrian movement down to the flood plain. There should also be a pedestian connection from the southern park to the northwestern property for future potential access at time of that property's develop- ment. Access to the northern park from the Edenview Addition is limited to cul-de-sac called Creek View Lane. This access with onlyconveniently serve only about 1/3 of the Edenview,NottinghamForest, and KutcherFirst Addi- tion areas. The Planning Staff suggest that the Community Services Staff work with residents in the Edenview First Addition area with lots adjoining the property's western boundary in order to find some additional acess to the park property. The cash park fee would not be assessed but rather,land would be dedicated as illustrated in the northern and southern park. Pedestrian systems in the proposal should include access areas between lots as required by the Community Services Staff which will be developed further at the time of platting and individual rezoning. There should also be a loop sidewalk system in the southern portion of the develop- ment With a five foot wide concrete sidewalk along one side of the entire • main loop through the area. in addition,right-of-way should be provided along Duck Lake Trail and County Road 4 for construction of a future City bike trail. RECOMMENDATiON • The Planning department would reconmiend to the Planning Commission approval of the PUO concept illustrating 253 total residential units subject to the following: 1. The total final number of units would he dependent upon revi- sion of the PUD concept to provide wider townhouse lots along the northeast facing slope area, wider quadraminium lots adjacent to the property's western boundary, and larger quad- raminium lots within the wooded area of the site. This approval 20?; Timber Creek -8- April 9, 1980 would not be tied to a firm 253 units but would be based upon the basic concept presented as modified by specific site plans provided at the time of preliminary plat and rezoning. 2. That no grading or development of the property take place as a result of the PUD concept approval. Grading or land alteration would be permitted only in those phases specifically proposed for rezoning and preliminary platting with a definite development plan. 3. The basic concept of density transfer from the flood plain area of the site should be allowed. 4. Access to the western residential property should be provided as outlined in this report. 5. Additional park area should be dedicated in the northern park as outlined in this report. 6. At the time of development of the northern single family lot area, Townline Raod would be required to be improved (if not done prior to that time) by the developer, to his western boundary. 7. Road improvements as required by the City and County outlined in this report for the access to County Road 4 would be the • responsibility of the developer at time of development of the northern leg of the loop road. 8. Fifteen feet of R.D.W., anda flat n grading accuruirici to City specifi- cations be provided along Duck Lake Trail and County Road 4 for construction of bike trails by the City in the future. 9. Credit on lot sizes for lots sho'rinq portion in the flood plain will be given, however, actual lots should be platted out of the flood plain area. Restrictive covenants prohibiting con- struction or altering of vegetation in the Conservancy Zone • must be filed. 10. Preliminary plats and rezoning applications shall he consistent with the Shoreland Management Ordinance. 11. The basic configuration of the lots adjacent to the Creek is consistent with the Conservancy Zone. 12. Park areas designated on the proposal shall be dedicated at the time of any final platting of any portion of the property. 13. Detailed pedestrian systems must be submitted by the proponent as a part of the i'UD,Development Stage approval to follow. This would include but not be limited to additional access points to the Purgatory Creek flood plain area and a 5' wide concrete sidewalk along one side of the loop road through the southern area. 14. In addition to 'enlarging the quadraminium lots along the property's western boundary,a detailed plan should be sub- mitted at the time of preliminary platting of this area L03 Timber Creek -9- April 9, 1980 which illustrates a buffering provided by the proponent made up of vegetation and grading to provide a transition between the mutiple area and the single family area lying to the west.

I understand that we will now be going back to the Planning Commission to enable them to review our revised plan and hopefully resolve the tie vote. The revised Concept Plan has attempted to address both the concerns of the Planning Commission and the Parks d Recreation Commission: • Housing units in the southwest corner of the site have been pulled away from the western property line, buildings have been pulled out of the existing woods such that the woods will remain basically untouched and townhouse lots have been enlarged and a private access has been provided to reduce individual driveways onto a public street. • Access to the undeveloped land to the west has been provided. • The northern park has been enlarged and reconfigured as requested. • A bike easement and grading will be provided along County Road 4 and Duck Lake Trail. • Single Family lots have been enlarged along the flood plain to comply with the Shoreline Management Ordinance. • Additional pedestrian access to the flood plain and the southern park have been provided. In addition, two trail easements will be provided within the flood plain. • In addition to providing an increased buffer along the western property line earth berms and landscaping wiil be provided.

The following policies and criteria of the Watershed District are applicable to this proposed development. 1. The District notes that an encroachment into the 100-year floodplain of Purgatory Creek may be proposed as part of the overall grading plan for the project. Therefore, a detailed grading plan showing I both existing and proposed contours must be submitted to the ti District for review and approval. If an encroachment is proposed i into the 100-year floodplain of Purgatory Creek, the proposed E encroachment must meet the encroachment criteria set forth by Watershed District policy. 2. The District suggests that the developer be in contact with the 4 Minnesota Department of Natural Resources for determinations of any and all public waters that may lie within the boundaries of the development site. Should the MDNR determine that public waters are within the site and grading operations are proposed below the natural ordinary highwater elevation of the public waters, an MDNR Chapter 105 Work in Public Waters Permit will be required. In areas where development remains above the natural ordinary high- water elevation, a Riley-Purgatory Creek Watershed District grading and land alteration permit will be required. Accompany this permit application, a detailed erosion control plan outlining how sediment will be prevented from leaving the altered areas on the development site both during and after construction must be submitted to the District for review and approval. 2.G61 • Mr. Chris Enger Page 2 February 13, 1980 3. Due to the size of the development, the District will require that grading operations be phased. • 4. A detailed storm sewer plan must be submitted to the District for review and approval. This plan should include the locations and design of all storm sewers and sedimentation basins to be located on the site. 5. The District notes that the proposed development encroaches into the conservancy area as indicated in the Purgatory Creek Trail Study. Prior to final City and District approval, this conflict must be resolved. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this development at an early date. If you have any questions regarding the District's comments, please contact us at 920-0655. Sincerely,Ca \- Bo ert C.

Penzel, Mayor ATTEST: John D. Frane, City Clerk SEAL 20s7 Minutes-Parks, Recreation & unapproved Natural Resources Commission -3- August 4, 1980 Members absent: Richard Anderson • b. Thorn Creek John Uban was present representing the Minneapolis Retail Meat Cutters and Food Handlers Health and Welfare Fund as developers of this 601• acre project. Uban explained that an institution such as the Meat Cutters Pension Fund is interested in long term results, therefore can take their time in producing a quality project with good design criteria. Uban located the project cast and adjacent to Valley View Road, and south of Ilichaelangelo Gardens. The property is wooded and rolling and the structures have been designed to mold with the terrain (i.e. terracing the structures). Uban said the structures planned include a major sport facility (raquetball/tennis, soft surface running trail), office complexes including a parking ramp, and combination office/condominium structures. Uban said cash will be paid in lieu of park dedication as reoommended by the Eden Prairie Planning Commission. Ile added that the developer does not plan to put a road through the flood- plain due to sanitary sewer lines, etc. At this point Uban invited questions and comments from the Commission and Staff. Lambert said he communicated with the City of Edina regarding a trail connection east from the Endblom property and they said ( nothing would be considered. In lieu of this, Lambert asked the Commission to consider just a trail easement, as a trail may not be feasible due to connections and terrain. Tangen asked if there is a trail easement north through Ilichaelangelo Gardens, and if so could it be a possible connection. Lambert said yes, there is an easement north. Tangen said he feels there is merit to a trail system in this area, and that a provision should be made through the Nine Nile Creek corridor which would connect into the Valley View Road system. He further said this cite does not lend itself to park land dedication but it does to trail easoment and wetland dedication. Tangen asked if the height of the hill near the Endblom property will be altered. Uban said minimally, approximately-15 feet, and the structures will bo below the tree line in height at that point. MOTION: VanMetor moved to recommend approval of the Thorn .Creek development and request a trail easement where it is best suited and also that the City maintain a cash park fee. Froiderichs seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. DISCUSSION: Tangen commended the developer on planning a parking ramp rather than flat parking lots. 2058 ! approved Planning Commission Minutes -4- July 14, 1980 MEMBERS ABSENT: Matthew Levitt • D.

Frank Smetana, 7680 Smetana Lane, was concerned with the improvements to Palley View Road. Uban replied that R.O.W. will be enlarged en extra 17' and a ri.ht and left turn lane and bypass lane will be added. Smetana inquired about the oak trees in the South tip stating they arc a barrier. Uban replied that they want to Lxeo them but, some may have to go for the Valley View Road construction. Gary Kostecka, 10805 Valley View Road, does not want to give up any land for View and he does not feel that Valley View Road can handle the traffic flow. Paul Enblom, 10610 Valley View Road, owner of the land to the East, stated he sold B acres for the project and is satisfied with the concept. Dan Enblom expressed concern about the parking lot in the woods located at the :,,:h end of the project. Uban stated that schematically they show required parking spaces, but given a .. ,•i- ance for fewer, more trees could he retained.

STAFF REPORT i TO: Planning Commission i FROM: Chris Enger, Director of Planning ? DATE: July 3, 19801 APPLICANT Minneapolis Retail Meat Cutters & Food 1 & FEEE OWNER: Handlers Health and Welfare Fund. REQUEST: Planned Unit Development Concept Approval i for Residential, Office and Commercial Uses i on 60 + acres of land. r PROJECT LOCATION: East and adjacent to 169/212, northwest and a adjacent to Valley View Road, and south of Michaelangelo Garden $ BACKGROUND Major Center Area designation: Housing/Highway Commercial/Regional Service/ 3 I Regional Office. _ 1979 Guide Plan designation: High density Residential , • Existing Zoning: C-Reg, not appropriate for intended use. Post Proposals: In March of 1979 a smaller area (46.3 acres) was proposed for commercial and office uses. This proposal was recom- mended for denial by the Planning Commission and withdrawn by the proponent prior to review by the City Council. MOTION: Torjesen moved to recommend denial to the City Council of the Schoenfelder P.U.D. Concept as per staff report of May 7, 1979, Dept. of Trans. letter of 5/9, & following reasons: 1.) Guide Plan update does propose residential use in this area and there is no binding com- mitment in this plan for residential. 2.) Unanswered questions on the amount of trees that would be cut, hills cut, and fill of flood plain. 3.) Lack of traffic infor- mation. 4.) Uncertainity of road system. Retterath seconded, motion carried 6-0-1, Bear1an abstaining. CURRENT PROPOSAL Additional area has been added to the current proposal, and the total nunOcr of lots reduced. The net result is a far more open plan (11% F.A.R.) with much more opportunity for creative building siting. The request for grading of the entire site has been withdrawn. The proposal is to only grade in phases as rezonings are requested. The 110,000 sq. ft. Office/Racquet Club, will be the first request for re- zoning. The building is designed with an adjoining parking ramp to maximize the elevation change in the site and minimize the ground coverage. 2O4.0z Staff Report -2- July 3, 1980 LAND USE The Restaurant on the southern tip of the site preserves a major portion of the small hill and trees. Since the Guide Plan designates this area as high density residential, the ability to actually building the combination office and residential structures proposed is critical to the P.U.D. ROAD ACCESS Soils information has been included in the development brochure which indi- cates great difficulty in crossing Nine-Mile Creek over the sanitary sewer, when the sewer is on bad soils. The enclosed grapnic suggests a possioie alternate crossing on better soils. An additional road access easterly to Valley View Road has been added. Hennepin County has reviewed both access points and made suggestions to improve them which the proponent has agreed to. An addition 17' of R.O.W. is required on Valley View Road. PEDESTRIAN SYSTEM No overall pedestrian system is shown. • 2065 i‘.-- cirqi ) \ii\i• .. •,, i ,,t l 1 ,, .,.. \ , ( :fir...\-,.—,--. F.

We reviewed the above plat and found it acceptable with consideration of these conditions: -The developer should dedicate an additional 17 ft. of right of way making the right of way 50 ft. from the center of County Road 39. -Although the sight distance is very limited in the area, our Traffic Division determined the best location for the westerly drive is approximately 400 ft. west of Smetana Lane. The access shown on the plat must be moved approximately 70 ft. west to meet this requirement. • -The easterly proposed access, which meets sight distance requirements for the posted 35 mph, is a good access location. -Any new access to a county road requires an approved Hennepin County entrance permit. See our Traffic Division for entrance permit forms. -All proposed construction within County right of way requires an approved utility permit prior to beginning construction. This includes, but is not limited to, drainage and utility construction, trail development, and land- scaping. See our Maintenance Division for utility permit forms. -The developer must restore all areas disturbed during construction within County right of way.

MINNESOTA 55401 August 13, 1980 Honorable Mayor and City I. City of Eden Prairie Eden Prairie, MN 55343 Attn: Roger Ulstad, City Manager EDEN PRAIRIE SUBSTATION 345/115 kv rt, Northern States Power Company is having some difficulties in acquiring a proper easement across what would be on property owned by the Fotomark Company and would be located north of their existing building. 1 We have tried to satisfy this company with fair compensation for the easement north of their existing building. NSP would, for the use of the easement, grant to them 1.25 acres of the adjacent property to the west for their proposed addition plus $25,000 in • cash for the easement needed for the 345 kv tap into the proposed Eden Prairie Substation. Their counter offer (Fotomark) was the 1.25 acres of property plus $100,000 or condem for approximately $900,000 (nine hundred thousand) . A solution to this, we feel, is to locate our existing 345 kv transmission line tap approximately 300' to the south adjacent to 78th Street and completely miss Foto- mark, therefore not requiring any easement from them and giving them the opportunity for their future expansion. In addition, at this location we would also remove the three existing wood poles that are located on the present easement adjacent to Rosemount Engineering and replacing with only one additional structure cleaning up the area as far as visual esthetics. In addition, NSP agreed in the Developer's Agreement that we would grade and landscape our property during the year of 1981. Because of an additional problem with the City sewer (which has a proper easement located on our property) and in discussion with your City Engineer, Carl Julie, the proposed substation berming would take place over the existing sewer line. This would cause too much weight over that sewer line, and would require NSP to relocate at our expense. This will take additional time for relocation, receiving drawings from 20 5 • Roger i'lstad-City of Eden Prairie Page 2 August 13, 1980 the consultant engineering firm of Rieke, Carroll and Muller Associates Inc. We are asking that the grading and berming, and including the landscaping, be delayed to completion of June 1982. We would respectfully request that the City Council would review these problems that we have encountered and provide an answer to us in writing. Whatever determination is made by Council we will abide by their decision.

The following year a park bond referendum that included acquisition and development of that park area failed. Finally, in 1979 the park bond referendum that included acquisition and development of Hidden Ponds Neighborhood Park passed by nearly a 2 to 1 margin. The park, located east of Dell Road and southeast of the abandoned railroad i track, was acquired in June of 1980. On August 4, 1980, the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission will be reviewing the schematic plan for development of Hidden Ponds Park. A copy of the schematic plan is enclosed. First phase development of this park will include grading and seeding of the entire park area, development • of the softball field, football field, skating area,road access and parking. This is to be completed during the spring of 1981. Second phase develop- ment will include construction of a totlot, playground area, park shelter, two tennis courts and a multi-use court. This is to be completed in the fall of 1981. • All residents are invited to attend the August 4 meeting of the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission to provide any input they may feel is necessary to improve this plan. The meeting begins at 7:30 p.m. at the City Hall Council Chambers. I look forward to seeing you on August 4th. Sincerely, ZOC^fr'IM"'A Roabert A.

The plans for both of these parks have met with favorable • review from both the residents and the Commission. The City Council reviewed and approved the Creekwood Park plan on June 17, 1980, and will review the Hidden Ponds Park plan on August 19, 1980. Staff would suggest that these two grading projects be included in one bid in order to increase the size of the bid and hopefully get a more favorable bid price. Staff requests to advertise for these projects on August 28, September 4 and September 11, 1980, and to receive bids on October 2, 1980 at 2:00 p.m. in the {: City Council CHambers. Estimated cost for grading and seeding of these parks is $20,000 for Creekwood Park and $18,000 for Hidden Ponds Park. Acquisition and development of both of these parks was included in the 1979 Park Bond Referendum.

BL:md 2G� MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council ( Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Conmission THUR: Roger K. Ulstad, City Manager i FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services ' I DATE: August 14, 1980 SUBJECT: Round Lake Treatment and Restocking Program As you may recall, on March 18, 1980, the City Council voted to approve the recommendation of the Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission and a staff, to authorize staff to proceed with the lake management program at Round Lake. This program consisted of a monitoring program over the next three years and commitment for expenditures estimated at $3,500 for destratification of the lake in September of this year and an estimated $12,D00 for purchase of an aeration system to be installed prior to the winter of 1981. i This program was for two purposes: 1. to improve the quality of the water y. of Round Lake, 2. to improve the recreational value of the lake by improving the fishing on the lake. 1 Mr. Duane Shodeen, Department of Natural Resources, informs me that they would 1 like to treat the lake on either the 11th or 12th of September (treatment date will vary depending on weather conditions). Three weeks after the treatment date, the DNR will stock the lake with sunfish, bass and walleyes. A few of these sunfish will be of catchable size the following summer. However, it will be approximately 18 months before we really know if the stocking program has been a success. Prior to treating the lake, the DNR will provide information in the local paper on when the lake is to be treated and warning people not to fish out of the lake or eat any fish from the lake. The lake will also be posted with signs during and after the treatment process. The City has agreed to help the DNR with the cleanup of the dead fish. I have met with two sales representatives regarding destratification of the lake prior to treatment and aeration of the lake after treatment. Both represented companies that sold bubbler type systems. (This is the type of system necessary to install to destratify the lake.) Clean Flo proposed a system with four half horsepower compressors and six diffussers that would move 720,000 gallons/hr. from the bottom of the lake to the surface, for a rental cost of $2,925. (Rental of $975/mo., minimum 3 months) Purchase price for this system installed is $9,360. Waldor Pump proposed an aeration system with one 7'Z horsepower compressor and one hclixor diffusser that would move 960,000 gallons/hr. from the bottom of the lake to the surface, for a rental cost of $1,000/mo. (with 50", going toward purchase price) if the City uses its own compressor. Purchase price inlcuding ( their compressor is $3,730. 2U`62- tp -2- ( These aeration systems would run throughout the winter months to maintain oxygen levels in the lake sufficient for sustaining game fish. Both of these systems have been proven to be successful in providing aeration for lakes. The Waldor system is obviously much cheaper of the two. Their only drawback is that both sytems will create an area of open water on Round Lake throughout the winter. Although, we would sign the open water area every 75 feet as per state regulations, it would be a hazard. The other alternative is to either pump fresh water into the lake through a bubbler system in the later winter months or to construct a recirculation system that would pump water out of the bottom of the lake and run it through an underground baffle system and back into the lake. These systems are expensive • and cost estimates range from $29,000 to $40,900 depending on if a well is needed and how much pipe is required. (The water must be pumped at least 20 feet above the lake level to run it back over baffles.) RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City purchase and install the Waldor Pump system to destrafity the lake and retain the system for aeration of the lake. This would only be operated late in the winter when oxygen levels begin to fall off, usually from late February until ice melt.

The total area of the plat is approximately 26 acres, the easterly 9.5 acres of which has been zoned I-2 Park, with the remainder of the area being Rural. HISTORY: The preliminary plat was approved by the City Council on June 17, 1980, per Resolution No. R80-98. Zoning to I-2 Park for the easterly 9.5 acres (Lot 1, Block 1) was finally read and approved by the City Council on July 15, 1980. Future development of Outlot A will require platting and zoning approvals. The Developer's Agreement referred to within this report was executed on July 15, 1980. VARIANCES: All variance requests must be processed through the Board of appeal s UTILITIES AND STREETS: The requirements for the installation of municipal 1 utilities and streets are covered in the Developer's Agreement. The Developer's Agreement requires a total of 17' additional right-of-way and a maximum 7 degree curve to be platted along County Road N39.

The Council directed the Staff to further explore alternatives and to confer with the developer regarding the assessment costs for this project. A copy of the feasibility study was given to Mr. Sutton for his review. He then forwarded the study to Mr. Orlyn Miller, his engineering consultant. I spoke recently to Mr. Miller who informed me that he would be conferring with Mr. Sutton and would try to have some response to the study by Tuesday evening, August 19. The Council may wish to discuss the possibility of doing this project by day labor (City crews) rather than by private contractor. The cost for materials only to,complete the job would be about $13,000. Perhaps Mr. Sutton could supply the materials and City crews could do the installation on the basis that the.improvements would be correcting a somewhat existing drain- • age maintenance problem. • CJJ:kh 4r August 15, 1980 j CITY DF EDEN PRAIRIE HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO.

SUBJECT: Purchase Agreement for Sale of City Property on T.H. 169 R.L.S. #423 During 1975, at the time that T.H. 169 was widened from I-494 past the Eden Prairie Center to south of Schooner Boulevard, the City became involved in right-of-way acquisition and purchased a house and three parcels described as Tracts A, B and C, R.L.S. #423. The original areas of these parcels was 1.I3 acres. The house was then removed and the required right-of-way for the T.H. 169 widening was assigned to MN/DOT, leaving .9 acres remaining in'Ccty ownership. The property has right in/right out access only from T.H. 169. Recently, the Tudor Oaks Condominium Project Partnership, which is the new developer of the Tudor Oaks Project, requested that the City consider the sale of said Tracts A, B and C, so that they could incorporate these tracts into their overall 'development plans. Mr. John O'Neill, the owner of property abutting Said tracts to the south, also expressed an interest in purchasing the City's properties. After conferring with City Attorney Roger Pauly, it was determined that it would be in the best interests of good land planning in the area to limit bidding to the adjacent property owners, rather than allowing this small property to be sold and developed separately. Accordingly, invitations to submit sealed bids at 1:30 P.M. on July 30, 1980, were mailed out to both the Tudor Oaks Partnership and to Mr. O'Neill. • Pursuant to said invitation for bids, the Tudor Oaks Partnership submitted a bid of $64,034. Mr. O'Neill chose not to submit a bid. The offer contains certain contingencies as described on the attached purchase agreement. An appraisal of said property done by Cambell Appraisal Co. for the City on February 20, 1976, indicated an estimated value of $64,000. The Tudor Oaks Partnership has submitted a preliminary site plan (copy attached) showing how the City's property would be utilized, including three parcels of the O'Neill property to the south. Recommend approval of said purchase agreement with Tudor Oaks Condominium Partnership for sale of Tracts A, B and C of R.L.S. #423.

Hanson 6923 Rosemary Road 2O9 "Confidential Report for Council" July 17, 1980 TO: Cindy Plante 4 FROM: CSO Pauline OlsonFO SUBJECT: Private Kennel License Investigation of 13895 Holly Road The dwelling is a private home in a residential area. In checking with the City Assessor's office, the lot was found to have 109.93 feet in front, 109 feet in back, 212.3 feet on the east side, and the west side has 198 feet. According to the applicant, he plans to keep only three dogs and has no intention of raising dogs. I stopped by the applicant's home on a couple of occasions and drove by several times. The first time I stopped, I observed a black Lab on the applicant's property. Shortly thereafter, the Lab headed up Holly Road, unaccompanied by a person having control over the dog. The Lab did return home as soon as I got out of the car and approached the applicant's home. Mr. Ranier was not home, however, his son was advised of the City Ordinance governing dogs at large. Mr. Renier's son stated that he was aware of the ordinance and that the Lab usually stays home as it is very old. Mr. Ranier is, at the present time, constructing a fence around his back yard which he hopes will keep his �- dog in the yard. However, there appears to be a problem with a ravine on the east side of the house which is caused by the hosing down of the kennel. Some of the neighbors advised that the water flows onto Mr. Penier's neighbor's nroaerty, builds up, and has killed of grass. I heard on .,o,•k during tie time I was c. ckir, e water flow. The barking stopped as soon as I left. The neighbors' comments are as follows: • "Their dogs run loose. I have had to chase the one dog home because it r,as after one of my kids. I know also of a problem with Mr. Renier cleaning his kennel and it runs down onto his neighbor's property." "The dogs bark and run. It doesn't matter what time of day." • "They don't take care of their dogs or the property." "They must keep their dogs in a kennel now because we never see them." "Their dogs do run and bark a lot. It is nice, though, to have that type of protection at night. I would also have to say that other dogs run more than theirs." "410 problem with their barking and running. Usually someone is out with the dogs when they let them run." "Confidential Report for Council" Cindy Plante July 17, 1980 Page 2 "Nothing against their having a license as we do not have enough problems for a sufficient complaint." "Definitely not; their dogs bark at all hours of the night and they do not take good care of the dogs or property." "That's fine if they have a kennel license. I enjoy their dogs. They keep good care of them. I would hate, though, to see them raise dogs." • • (They have in the past). "Confidential Report for Council" • { II July 28, 1980 TO: Cindy Plante FROM: CSO Pauline Olson S SUBJECT: Follow up to a Private Kennel Investigation of 13895 Holly Road The problem with the ravine may be a serious one, regarding the application. The neighbors that have their property next to the Reiners are against the kennel license. I would like to make a note that I first found out about the ravine problem from neighbors other than the ones effected by the ravine. 20 9.31 • r.=✓ t_s CIS Y OFFICES/8950 EOEN PRAIRIE ROAD/EDEN PRAIRIE,MINNESOTA 55344/TELEPHOCE(612193T-2252 `„�;�„1 /' " • • • • August 11, 1980 • Mr. E.
