B. City Council meeting held Tuesday, May 171 1983
p, 5, pare, 3: replace the last sentence which read; "He said there are two
items which should make this a desirable improvement with a minimal encroach-
ment into the bluff's area: this would be an improvement in the public health
and welfare; and it provides the City the ability, through zoning, to control
the upgrading as well as the image of the community," with: He said there
City Council Minutes -2- June 7, 1983
were two items to consider in determining whether or not a minimal encroach-
ment into the bluffs in this area should occur: 1) would this be an improvement
in public health and welfare, and 2) whether it provides the City with the
ability, through rezoning, to control development and design of any expansion,
and thus improve the image of the community. He said that in his mind this
rezoning proposal met both conditions."
p. 9, para. 2, 1st sentence: delete you might have a local improvement
and some areas might not be included," and insert "for example construction
of sewer and water other than if a local improvement under Chapter 429."
p. 9, para. 2, last sentence: change: "an assessment" to "a charge"
p. 9. para. 3, delete 2nd sentence which read: "Pauly said the same rights
of appeal pertain to this as to the usual assessment process." and replace
with: "Pauly said upon notice to the owner of the proposed charge the owner
may request a hearing by the Council, If the owner wishes, he would have
recourse to a court of review the Council's decision and whether it is in
accord with the Ordinance and the enabling statute. While procedurally
the hearing and court review are similar to that in the assessment process
there are substantive differences. The principal difference is that in the
assessment proceeding the test is whether the benefit to the property equals
the proposed assessment, In a connection charge proceeding the charge must
be upon a comparable basis per front foot and/or area as assessments for public
improvements against other properties in the district or neighborhood, or if
none, upon an estimated or levied uniform charge."

No. 22-83 . rezoning and Resolution No. 83-129 . preliminary plat)
City Manager Jullie stated notice of this Public Hearing had been published
and notification had been sent to property owners within the project vicinity.
Francis Hagen, Westwood Planning and Engineering, spokesman for the proponent,
addressed the proposal.
Planning Director Enger said this proposal had been reviewed by the Planning
Commission on April 25, 1983, and was continued to the May 9, 1983, meeting
to accommodate the realignment of Dell Road to the west. At its May 9th
meeting the Planning Commission voted to recommend approval of the request
subject to the recommendations included in the May 6, 1983, Staff Report.
Director of Community Services Lambert noted the Parks, Recreation & Natural
Resources Commission had reviewed this proposal at its May 16, 1983, meeting.
Discussion at that time revolved around the location and size of the park
as well as how to pay for it. The Commission requested the park boundary
be moved 70' to the west. With that issue resolved, the Commission voted
to recommend approval subject to the recommendations of the Planning Commis-
sion as well as those of the May 6, 1983, Staff Report. Lambert said he
would request the Council to authorize Staff to obtain an appraisal on
this site so negotiations for the acquisition of the park property might
begin, if this proposal is approved.
Enger discussed the possible alignment of Highway 101,
Bentley asked the reason for rezoning only 22.8 acres of the total PUD.
Dick Feerick, developer, stated there are still issues to be resolved
regarding the other areas and he does not wish to hold up work on the
entire project until these are worked out.

City Council Minutes -5- June 7, 1983
Penzel asked how single family home buyers will be told of the proposed
multiple dwellings to the north. Feerick said he is willing to put up
signs, if necessary, to say what is planned.
Anderson inquired as to the area to be served by the park. Lambert said
it would serve the area north of Duck Lake Trail and west of Dell Road.
Anderson asked how much money would be received in cash park fees from
this project, Lambert said between $200,000 and $250,000 depending on
the densities. Anderson asked if land could be given to the City in lieu
of cash park fees. Lambert said it could. Bentley asked if the park
dedication was tied to any phase of the proposal. Lambert said it is
not, prior to the realignment of Dell Road things were different.
Feerick said he felt if the property were to be developed in phases,
It would be beneficial to the City as well as the owners if the property
were to be purchased in the cash park fee manner. Enger said Staff would
request the Dell Road as well as the park issue be resolved prior to
2nd Reading of the Ordinance.
Penzel asked why Lochanburn is not connected to Hidden Glen, Enger said
there is a steep hill and poor site connections in that location; it would
also create a lot of additional traffic through the Lochanburn neighborhood.
Tangen said he felt the water from Lochanburn will go into the backyards
of two of the lots in the Hidden Glen neighborhood.if the through street
were to be eliminated. He said he thinks internal circulation between
neighborhoods is important and he would like to see the connection made.
Enger said the proponent is willing to make the connection if the City
wants it. Anderson said stop signs might be used to slow down traffic.
Feerick noted the Lochanburn residents do not want the connection.
Anderson asked about routes residents would take to get to the park.
Lambert outlined the location of proposed sidewalks in the area,
Stan Riegert, 6611 Lochanburn, said he is against the street connection.
He said he felt more neighbors would have come to the meeting but they
thought the issue had been resolved, Tangen said at the hearing on the
Dellwood proposal he had expressed concerns similar to those which he
expressed this evening.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Anderson, to close the Public Hearing
and to give 1st Reading to Ordinance No. 22-83 for rezoning, Motion carried
unanimously.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Anderson, to adopt Resolution No. 83-129,
approving the preliminary plat of Hidden Glen for R. M. Feerick & Associates.
Tangen stated he could not support the approval of the preliminary plat without
the addition of the road connection.
AMENDMENT TO MOTION: Tangen moved, seconded by Redpath, to connect Lochanburn
Road to the Hidden Glen subdivision,
City Council Minutes -6- June 7, 1983
Tangen said this action would eliminate a slough in someone's backyard.
He did not feel the Council should react to neighborhood pressure since
there were valid reasons as to why the connection should be made. Redpath
said he felt connections should be made between neighborhoods also. Anderson
said he he could probably go along with this except for the fact that the
Lochanburn residents had spoken against the connection during the Public
Hearing on the Dellwood proposal. He said he would like to see the matter
reviewed by the Public Safety and Engineering Departments for their input
in regard to site distance and drainage problems prior to 2nd Reading.
AMENDMENT TO MOTION WITHDRAWN with approval of Tangen and Redpath,
AMENDMENT TO MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Anderson, to refer the
issue of the connection of Lochanburn Road to the Hidden Glen subdivision
to the Public Safety, Engineering, and Planning Departments for their review
prior to 2nd Reading, Amendment carried unanimously,
VOTE ON MOTION AS AMENDED: Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to direct Staff to draft
the Developer's Agreement subject to the recommendations included in
the May 6, 1983, Staff Report, the recommendations of the Planning Commission
and the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission, and the City
Council; and allowing for input on the Lochanburn Road question as well
as resolution of the park issue by Staff, Motion carried unanimously.

they need fill.

Commission at its May 9, 1983, meeting at which time it voted to recommend
approval subject to the recommendations included in the May 6, 1983, Staff
Report as well as the additions as noted in the Planning Commission Minutes.

Penzel asked what the buildings would look like, Hagen said he did not
have any pictures available. John Lassen, Edenvale representative, said •
Dick Hipp would be the builder.
Bentley asked about the alignment of the roads, Enger said the intersection
was off-set 125' due to a topographic feature and was done so traffic would
go onto Edenvale Boulevard rather than using the interior street system.
Anderson asked about the general transportation system. Director of Public
Works Dietz said Edenvale Boulevard will connect to County Road 67, Anderson
asked how these people will get to Forest Hills Park, Lambert said the road
system should be completed by the time there are residents,
Penzel expressed hope that the facades of the homes will be treated in a less
monotonous manner than those previously built.
Penzel asked if there is any way in which the railroad crossing issue can
be accelerated, City Attorney Pauly said the City does have the right of
eminent domain. Penzel suggested the City take the appropriate action with
the railroad.
Harry Picha, 6649 Birch Island Road, said he would like to have an easement
for sanitary sewer, water and other utilities. Staff will work on the Picha
drainage problem via the Developer's Agreement,
Lassen noted that work will be done on a pathway system to get residents
to the parks.

VII. PETITIONS, REQUESTS & COMMUNICATIONS
A. TERRY DOUGLAS. Request for Steep Slope Grading Review, pursuant to Section
11.60 of WiT"City Code, Location: north of US 169 west of Eden Prairie
Road in the Minnesota River Bluff's area,
City Council Minutes -9- June 7, 1983
Director of Planning Enger reviewed the request and showed slides of the
grading which had been done prior to the time when Douglas became aware
of the provision of the Code regarding slopes. Enger noted the watershed
district had not been contacted by Douglas either. Enger stated Douglas
had complied with the stop order which had been issued and had applied
for the necessary permits and had installed the requested means to control
erosion (straw check bands). Enger said the Planning Commission had voted
to recommend approval of the Douglas driveway grading permit as per the
Planning Staff Report of May 20, 1983.
Director of Community Services Lambert stated the Parks, Recreation &
Natural Resources Commission had reviewed this request and had expressed
concern about the view from TH 169 rather than that from the river bottom and
the ability to control erosion. Lambert reported the Commission had recommended
immediate improvements be made to the road as per the Planning Staff Report
provided that is a temporary road until Beverly Drive is extended to the
Douglas property at which time the road would be returned to its natural state.
Bentley felt there should not be any single family driveways along TH 169;
additional access could be made available he thought. He asked if any citation
notices were considered. Jullie said this was the first application of this
new ordinance and he thought Douglas should be brought through the process.
Jullie felt Douglas had responded well.
Redpath said he has been on the road which Douglas now uses and for which
he only has an easement; it leaves much to be desired. Bentley said Beverly
Drive is very close to the north edge of Douglas' property.
Anderson said Bloomington has done much to protect the slopes within that
city; he is appalled that something like this has happened since so much
ground work has been done by the City of Eden Prairie to prevent this sort
of thing. He asked what might be done to prevent this from happening. City
Attorney Pauly said the City can charge Douglas with a violation of the City
Code which is a misdemeanor or a civil action can be brought via an injunc-
tion seeking an order for restoration and prohibition against any further
grading and cutting of the slopes. Pauly noted there is a time problem
with this; a civil action might be more rapid than a criminal complaint.
Penzel said it appeared to him there were two problems which needed to be
resolved: resolving the problem as it presently is and how to address the
prevention of potential additional damage and secondly, what to do about
the proper enforcement of the Code.
Anderson said he would like to see the road restored. Redpath concurred.
Lambert noted that Douglas had said he would need to have access 85% of
the way down the road because he keeps beehives there and must get to them
with a truck. Anderson noted the beehives could be put elsewhere. Lambert
said Douglas had never heard of the Slope Ordinance. When Douglas applied
for his building permit a few years ago, he was told he would have to have
access from TH 169.
127g,
City Council Minutes -10- June 7, 1983
Penzel said he could not see the practicality of having the driveway
removed a year or two from now.
Tangen said he would like to see the Council accept the recommendation of
the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission and to obtain a written
agreement from Douglas as to the conditions. If Douglas would not agree
to conditions, then a citation should be issued.
Anderson said he agreed with Penzel about the practicality of the matter.
He said he felt the City had an obligation to help Douglas find a way to
get to his property. There was a discussion of erosion problems with
sandy soils.
MOTION: Anderson moved, seconded by Tangen, to give Douglas the opportunity
to restore the road to its previous state or to work with the City to find
an alternate route to his property; action on the land alteration permit
is continued to July 5, 1983. Motion carried unanimously.
VIII. REPORTS OF OFFICERS, BOARDS & COMMISSIONS
A. Reports of Council Members
1. Violations of Grading Permits
Anderson said the City must find a means to have areas which are graded
restored; developers should be made accountable for the grading they do.
City Attorney Pauly said language would have to be added to each Ordinance
which specifically addresses grading.
Planning Director Enger said one of the penalties for removing trees
might be having them replaced caliper inch for caliper inch,
Bentley said the City is going to have to start enforcing its regulations
and to be known as a community in which this is done.
Redpath asked if the City now licenses excavators and, if not, can this
be done. Pauly said it is a matter of charginlithem with the Ordinances
we already have -- aggressive enforcement will do it.
There was discussion on the situation to which the Leesborough and Man-
chester residents have complained.
MOTION: Anderson moved, seconded by Tangen,to instruct Staff to develop
the means to enforce the City's Ordinances and to provide for the
penalties when the violations are committed. Motion carried unanimously.
2. Lake Use Policy
Anderson indicated Riley, Bryant and Staring Lakes are in need of controls.
MOTION: Anderson moved, seconded by Bentley, to direct the Parks, Recre-
ation & Natural Resources Commission to review regulations for Riley,
Bryant and Staring Lakes. Motion carried unanimously.

City Council Minutes -11- June 7, 1983
B. Report of City Manager
1. Discussion on IRB Reserve Funds, SBA 503 Loan Program, Port Authority,
and Minnesota Star City Designation
City Manager Jullie referred to his memorandum of June 2, 1983, in
which these issues were addressed. He introduced Bob Hanson and Glenn
Keitel, members of the Development Commission, and Bill McGrann and
Jim O'Meara, O'Connor & Hannan, who were present. Jullie noted that
these are tools to provide a stimulus for commercial and industrial
development. He stated the Development Commission has been reviewing
reserve system proposals and would recommend proceeding with the
Reserve System proposal.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to direct Staff, with
the assistance of O'Connor & Hannan, to prepare a request and advertise
for proposals to set up and manage an IRB Reserve System; thereafter,
the step-by-step procedure for establishing the system can be followed
as the Council deems appropriate. Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Tangen, to direct Staff to visit
with local bankers and encourage them to participate in the U.S. Small
Business Administration (SBA) Loan Program.and to use the State Develop-
ment Company in lieu of creating City staff for this purpose. Motion
carried unanimously.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to direct Staff to continue
to pursue permissive legislation at the next session of the State Legis-
lature to create a Port Authority.
McGrann noted it is no longer advantageous to have Port Authority legis-
lation -- Plymouth received it and hopes to set up a free trade zone --
as there are other methods presently available for cities for creative
financing.
VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Tangen, to direct Staff to pursue
the goals and strategies of the Minnesota Star Cities Program.
Bentley said this program, in order to be effective, would need a full-
time staff person to direct it. Penzel said the Council should consider
creating the position of Assistant City Manager; this person could be
used to support these programs.
Bob Hanson, Development Commission, said he would support the Council's
action. He noted that things happen because people are there to make
them happen. Programs such as the Star Cities Program can insure things
happen.
VOTE ON MOTION: Motion carried unanimously
1.22S
City Council Minutes -12- June 7, 1983
MOTION: Tangen moved, seconded by Redpath, to request that City Manager
Jullie include the oosition of Assistant City Manager in the 1984
City Budget. Motion carried unanimously.
Bentley said the Development Commission is to be commended for the
work it has done; O'Connor & Hannan is to be included.
2. Ordinance No. 25-83, amending Cable TV Ordinance No. 80-33 setting,
forth a description of the facilities to be provided by grantee;
modifying the initial service area; amending the line extension policy
of grantee; prescribing installation charges as set forth herein; and
amending the exhibits.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to give 1st Reading to
Ordinance No. 25-83. Motion carried unanimously.
3. Award contract for LaVonne Industrial Park, I.C. 52-048 (Resolution
No. 83-115) -- formerly III. E.
Redpath said he would like to have some answers for the people who
live on Leesborough and Manchester; who is to be the watchdog for the
grading that is taking place on the LaVonne Industrial Park site.
City Manager Jullie reviewed the points to be included in a letter
to the City from Undestad, the developer. He noted that the residents
would feel better if they could be assured that there would be land-
scaping.
MOTION: Tangen moved, seconded by Bentley, to adopt Resolution No.
83-115, awarding the contract for LaVonne Industrial Park, I.C. 52-048,
subject to the receipt of a bond by Undestad Development; to request
a restoration plan with trees being replaced on a caliper inch for
caliper inch basis; and to have a report on the progress of this at
the June 21, 1983, meeting of the City Council. Roll call vote:
Anderson, Bentley, Redpath, Tangen and Penzel voted "aye." Motion
carried unanimously.
C. Report of City Attorney
City Attorney Pauly reviewed what his discussions were with the State
Attorney General's representative and the State Veterinarian's Society
regarding the MacCharles' request for a mobile veterinary clinic. It
was determined the City would still request a peddler's license.
Pauly reported on a recent Supreme Court decision regarding the con-
demnation of property for park purposes.
Pauly reviewed the principles involved in building permits on parcels
of less than five acres. He also referred to a memorandum of 1981.
He noted the principles: 1) the landowner does not have an absolute
right to a building permit for a parcel of less than five acres prior
to 1969; 2) the City has the authority to deny issuance of a building
permit unless he can show he is being deprived of all reasonable use
of the property.
City Council Minutes -13- June 7, 1983
Pauly noted the process to be used in appealing a decision: the
Board of Appeals would review the appeal before it would go to the
City Council where the Council would then have to have "findings of
fact."
Penzel asked if it would be advisable for the Board of Appeals to
have legal counsel.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to direct Staff to provide
legal counsel to the Board of Appeals. Motion carried unanimously.
D. Report of Director fo Community Services
1. Request permission to prepare plans and specifications and receive
bids for Staring Lake Park Trail - Phase I
Director of Community Services Lambert noted this will complete a
two-mile trail.
MOTION: Tangen moved, seconded by Redpath, to authorize permission
to prepare plans and specifications and receive bids for Staring Lake
Park Trail - Phase I. Motion carried unanimously.
2. Staring Lake Park Trail Easement Agreement
Director of Community Services Lambert referred to his memorandum of
June 2, 1983, in which he addressed the agreement. He noted the Vo-
Tech wishes the easement to be for a 10-year period only. •
MOTION: Tangen moved, seconded by Redpath, to direct Staff to corres-
pond to Independent School District 287 the City's objections to the
agreement and to continue negotiations for a minimum lease period of
20 years. Motion carried unanimously.
IX. NEW BUSINESS

Attention Mr. Gene Dietz, City Engineer
We confirm our agreement of yesterday afternoon regarding the area
around the pond north of Technology Drive, on MTS property, under
easement to the City.
1. Steve Calhoun, City Park Department, will design the area
with a path north of the pond and appropriate trees, shrubs,
and prairie grass.
2. I will review his plans.
3. Gene Dietz will negotiate with the contractor to amend the
project contract to include this improvement in the project.
4. MTS will pay for the improvement as part of its assessment
for the project.
My understanding is that the additional cost will not exceed
$10,000 and that we will have an opportunity to review costs before
construction is authorized.
Thank you for your cooperation in this project.

coming more and more frightening as we are afraid
someone might be killed. We feel that a stop-
light is necessary.
Secondly, a service road should be put in going

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA, AMENDING
CITY CODE CHAPTER II BY ADDING THERETO SECTION 11.41 RELATING TO
CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS AND AMENDING SECTION 11.02 RELATING TO
DEFINITIONS AND ADOPTING BY REFERENCE CITY CODE CHAPTER 1 AND
SECTION 11.99 WHICH AMONG OTHER THINGS CONTAIN PENALTY
PROVISIONS.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF EDEN PRAIRIE, MINNESOTA, ORDAINS:
Section 1. City Code Chapter 11 shall be and is amended by adding thereto
Section 11.41 which reads as follows:
"SEC. 11.41. CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS.
SUBD. 1. Declaration of Policy and Purpose. It is hereby
found and declared that certain lands within the City have been
included within and designated as the "Major Center Area" ("MCA")
and are the subject of the "Eden Prairie Major Center Area Planned
Unit Development" ("MCA-PUD"), adopted by the Council on July 10,
1973, as an amendment to the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan. The
MCA-PUD as well as the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan
contemplate multiple uses, including office uses, of the lands within
the MCA-PUD. Some of the lands intended for office use are
situated in the R-22 (Residential) or the Rural District and have
dwellings situated thereon. Development of some of the lands within
the MCA for the uses intended has occurred. Development of some
of such land has not and may not occur in the immediate future
because of time, economic and other constraints. Thus, use of lands
in the MCA have been and are in a state of transition. The
development and use of some of the lands for the purposes intended
may adversely affect the use of certain dwellings for residential
purposes situated on some of the lands within the MCA. It is,
therefore, advisable to enable the owners of lands on which are
situated such dwellings to temporarily use or permit use of the same
for other purposes under proper and specific conditions to ameliorate
the impact of the transition of uses within the MCA. In order to
accomplish such purposes the following provisions relating to the
issuance of conditional use permits are adopted.
SUBD. 2. Areas Where Conditional Use Permits May Be
Granted. That part of the following described lands situated within
either the R-22 or Rural District may be used for those permitted
uses described in Section 11.20 (Office District) hereof upon issuance
of a conditional use permit in accordance with and subject to the
provisions and conditions contained in this section.

SUBD. 3. Required Conditions. A conditional use permit
may be granted only subject to the following conditions:
A. There shall be no business or advertising sign in
excess of B square feet.
The conditional use permit shall be for a period
not in excess of three years, provided, however, the Council may
grant a conditional use permit or permits effective subsequent to the
expiration of a previously granted conditional use permit.
C. No permit shall be granted unless the minimum
standards set forth in this chapter relating to lands within the Office
District are met, unless a variance has been granted therefore by the
Board of Adjustments and Appeals.
D. The Council finds the following:
I. The land subject to the conditional use
permit shall abut on a public street.
2. The conditional use will have available to
it an adequate and safe supply of water and shall have available and
use sanitary sewer which shall adequately and safely, without harm to
other lands or persons in the area, dispose of all sanitary sewage
generated on the land subject to the conditional use permit.
3. The conditional use will not require
construction on the land of, a new, or enlargement of an existing
building by more than five percent of the total cubic feet of the
existing building.
4. The conditional use will not be in conflict
with the MCA-PUD or the City's Comprehensive Guide Plan.
5. The conditional use will not create an
excessive burden on parks, schools, streets and other public facilities
and utilities which serve or are proposed to serve the area.
6. The conditional use will be sufficiently
separated by distance or screening from adjacent lands so that
existing homes will not be depreciated in value and there will be no
deterence to development of vacant land.
7. The structure and site for the conditional
use shall not be altered in appearance so as to have an adverse
effect upon adjacent residential properties.
8. The conditional use is reasonably related
to the overall needs of the City and to the existing land use in the
MCA.
9. The conditional use will not cause traffic
hazard or congestion.
10. Neighboring land and dwellings will not be
adversely affected because of traffic generation, noise, glare, or
other nuisance characteristics.
SUBD. 4. Additional Conditions. In granting a conditional
use permit the Council may impose additional conditions, including
the furnishing of a bond containing such terms and provisions and in
such amount as may be provided by the Council, to ensure the
prevention of or the compliance with those matters specified in
Subdivision 3 hereof or otherwise as the Council may determine to be
advisable or appropriate to achieve the policies and purposes of this
section.
SUBD. 5. Procedure. An application for a conditional use
permit shall be in writing signed by the owner of the land for which
the conditional use permit is sought. The procedures applicable to an
amendment of Chapter 11 of the Code, including notice and public
hearing, shall be required prior to the issuance of a conditional use
permit.
SUBD. 6. Revisions and/or Changes.
A. Minor revisions and/or changes in site or
remodeling plans on which the granting of a conditional use permit
has been conditioned may be approved by the Director of Planning if
they are required by engineering or other circumstances which were
not foreseen at the time the conditional use permit was approved.
B. Major revisions and/or changes in site or
remodeling plans on which the granting of a conditional use permit
has been conditioned may be approved by the Council only pursuant to
the procedures applicable to an application for a conditional use
permit. Any change in a site or remodeling plan the cost of which
change shall exceed 10 percent of the market value of the land and
any improvements thereon, for which a condtional use permit has
been granted, as determined by the City Assessor shall constitute a
major revision or change.

SUBD. 7. Cancellation of Conditional Use Permits. Unless
otherwise specified by the Council at the time it is authorized, a
conditional use permit shall expire if the applicant fails to utilize
such conditional use permit by obtaining a building permit or
otherwise within one year from the date of its authorization.
SUBD. 8. Conditional Use Permit Required. It shall be
unlawful to engage in a conditional use without having first obtained
a conditional use permit therefor.
Section 2. City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.02 shall be and is amended by
adding thereto item 7a as follows:
"la. "Conditional Use." A use which is not permissible in a zoning
District but which may under certain circumstances and with the
application of certain conditions be suitable."

IV. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS
A. LEN SWEDLUND & REPUBLIC SUPPLY COMPANY. Request for Pre-
liminary Plat of 14 acres into three (3) lots of
approximately 4.6 acres for single family detached homes.
Location: South of Riley Lake Road and east of the
Carver/Hennepin County boundary. A continued public
hearing.
At its meeting of May 23, 1983, the Planning Commission continued
this item pending information regarding the status of the final plat
in the City. Planning Staff reported that, according to the
Engineering Department, the final plat had never been placed on an
agenda and that no final plat was submitted in a completed form for
City review.
Greg Frank, McCombs-Knutson Associates, representing the proponent,
reviewed the contents of a letter submitted to the City, dated June
1, 1983, responding to the concerns of the Commission at the
/KS
Planning Commission Minutes

previous meeting regarding setting of precedent with respect to the
variance to lot size requested by the proponent.
Dennis Howly, 6430 Undestad, asked if the lots proposed would be the
only lots in the area. Staff responded that they were not and
pointed out the other subdivisions in the vicinity.
Torjesen stated that he felt the circumstances warranted special
consideration of the request of proponent.
MOTION 1:
Motion was made by Torjesen, seconded by Gartner, to close the
public hearing.
Motion carried--6-0-0
MOTION 2:
Motion was made by Torjesen, seconded by Gartner, to recommend
approval of the request of Len Swedlund and Republic Supply Company
for preliminary plat of 14 acres into three (3) lots, located on the
northeast side of Lake Riley, based on the findings of the Staff
Report of May 20, 1981, due to the unique circumstances involved
with this project.
Marhula questioned whether the land was located outside of the
Metropolitan Urban Service Area. Staff stated that it was. He also
questioned whether this project would adversely affect the adjacent
development in the City of Chanhassen. Mr. frank stated that it
would not. He added that, should there come a time when sewer and
water would be necessary for this site, it would likely come from
the existing Chanhassen development. However, it would not be a
problem to add these three lots to the existing capacity of
Chanhassen's sewer and water in this area.
Motion carried--3-2-1 (Gartner, Marhula, and Torjesen in favor;
Chairman Bearman and Schuck against; Hallett
abstained)

D. LEN SWEDLUND & REPUBLIC SUPPLY COMPANY. Request for Pre-
liminary Plat of 14 acres into three (3) 'lots of
approximately 4.6 acres for single family detached homes.
Location: South of Riley Lake Road and east of the
Carver/Hennepin County boundary. A public hearing.
Mr. Greg Frank, proponent's engineer, reviewed the request for
preliminary platting of three lots. He explained the history behind
the request, noting that it had been before the Commission in 1980
In exactly the same configuration. At that time, approvals had been
received for the preliminary plat from the Planning Commission, and
proponent was to proceed to the Board of Appeals with variance
requests for the lot size, which, at that time, was a five-acre
minimum in the Rural District. Due to personal circumstances
Involving financial difficulties affecting the property, the final
platting process was never completed. Only at this point in time
have these circumstances been cleared; therefore, proponent is back
before the City.
Mr. Frank stated that it was proponent's position that the
circumstances surrounding this project were unusual and to grant
such a request at this time, even though not in conformance with the
existing Code, would not be precedent setting because of the unusual
circumstances.
Mr. Frank stated that the addition of these lots would not create a
need for the extension of utilities to the site.
Staff reviewed the findings of the Staff Report of May 20, 1983,
recommending denial based on those findings. It was suggested in
the Staff Report that proponent return with a proposal revised to
include two, instead of three, lots.
Planner Enger pointed out that the major consideration was that of
compliance with City Code requirements, combined with the fact that
the project was initiated in 1980, three years ago, and was never
pursued further than preliminary platting in those three years.
Torjesen stated that he found the arguments of the proponent
pursuasive, especially regarding the inability of filing of a final
plat due to the personal financial circumstances of the proponent.
He added that he felt it would be important to know the final
disposition of the final plat in terms of the City in order to make
a decision on this proposal. Torjesen questioned the normal chain
of events for approval of a final plat. Staff responded that the
final plat was normally filed within six months of the approval of
the preliminary plat. This was required by the Subdivision
Regulations of the City Code. It was pointed out that this
requirement was not strictly enforced; however, if and when
proponent's required additional time, they generally would contact
Staff for time extension on this requirement.
Torjesen questioned what made this project different. Planner Enger
/3(0a/
Planning Commission Minutes 5 May 23, 1983
stated that the requirements of the Code had changed. In addition,
the developer had not been in contact with the City regarding an
extension. Len Swedlund, one of the proponent's, stated that he was
unaware of the change in the Code until he had recently reapplied
for approval of the project.
MOTION:
Motion as made by Marhula, seconded by Torjesen to continue the
public hearing to the June 6, 1983 meeting pending resolution of the
status of the final plat at the City based on the 1980 application
for this preliminary plat.

Dear Mr. Enger:
The purpose of this correspondence is to provide additional information on
the subject project which was not available at the May 23 meeting of the Plan-
ning Commission.
First, the date of the initiation of foreclosure/bankruptcy proceeding on
the property was August 4, 1980, while the preliminary plat application was
submitted to the City on August 11, 1980.
Second, our records indicate that the Final Plat was never signed by the
City of Eden Prairie.
Third, we understand that, based on your research, there are no other pre-
liminary plats that were approved prior to the new codification of the City's
ordinances that have not been filed for recording. That is, this project is
unique in that it represents the only preliminary plat in Eden Prairie that was
approved when the minimum lot size in the rural zoned areas was five acres that
has not been recorded.
Fourth, we also understand that your research indicates that there have
been final plats approved in Eden Prairie that were filed as long as two years
after approval of the preliminary plat.

STAFF REPORT
TO:
Planning Commission
FROM: Chris Enger, Director of Planning
PROJECT: Riley Estates
DATE: May 20, 1983
APPLICANT &
FEE OWNERS: Len Swedlund and Republic Supply Company
LOCATION: Northeast side of Riley Lake
REQUEST: 1. Platting of a 14-acre parcel into three parcels
2. Variance from minimum 10-acre lot size in Rural District
(Board of Appeals)
3. Side yard setback variance for three buildings (50 ft.
minimum required) to 30 ft. (Goard of Appeals)
Background
The proponent gives a partial history of the project back several years in his
development brochure dated April 14, 1983. The developer had previously applied for
platting of this property in August, 1980. The City had granted preliminary
platting of the property into three lots and the Board of Appeals had also granted
variances to allow the lots to be slightly under five acres in size. In 1980, the
minimum size lot in a Rural District was five acre.
•
Subsequent to that time, the developer did not proceed with the final plat or
proceed with the development, and, therefore, did not utilize the variance approvals
within the required one-year limitation as outlined by City Code.
In addition, the City, in 1982, revised the City Ordinances in the codification
process and adopted a new Rural lot size minimum of ten acres, rather than five
acres. The purpose of this new ten-acre limitation was three-fold:
1) To reduce pressures and need for premature extension of public
services into the Rural areas of the community.
2) To more adequately protect the Rural life-style of the community
outside of the Metropolitan Urban Service Area line.
3) To be utilized as a tool in protecting significant natural resources
such as lake shore, slopes, forested areas in our non-sewered areas.
Since the developer did not proceed with his approvals in 1980, these approvals have
now expired and the new request falls under the new Eden Prairie City Code.
Ir I
Riley Estates Staff Report 2 May 20, 1983
The proposal occurs on the north side of Lake Riley on a wooded hill, is outside of
the Metropolitan Urban Service Area line, and is likely to be without Citylervices
for at least ten years.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Staff recommends denial of the request for preliminary plat of three, lots of a
14-acre parcel of property in the Rural District for the following reasons:
1. The request is not in conformance with the minimum ten-acre lot size for a
Rural District and a variance from this ten-acre minimum down to under five
acres would create a dangerous precedence for other requests in the Rural
area.
2. The proposal is not in conformance with the Shoreland Management Act.
3. There is nothing specifically unique to this parcel, which causes a physical
hardship by virtue of the land.
4. It requires more than a'100% variance from City Code.
S. The area is outside the Metropolitan Urban Service Area line and approval of
smaller than five-acre lots would set a precedent for continued pressure for
extension of public services into a Rural area.
The Planning Staff would suggest, however,, that the proponent return to the City
with a proposal for no more . than two lots for consideration of platting and
variances as this request would be much closer to the requirements of the City Code
and could be considered a reasonable treatment of the property owner in view of the
past circumstances relating to the property.

B. JAMES REFRIGERATION. Request for Zoning from Rural to
Office for 2.16 acres for an office building. Location:
Southwest corner of Shady Oak Road and Highway #169. A
public meeting.
Charles James, proponent, reviewed the proposal with the Commission,
explaining significant site and design features of the project.
Planner Enger reviewed the Staff Report of June 3, 1983, regarding
the proposal and pointed out the variances requested by proponent as
part of the project. Staff explained that this was an unusual site
to deal with as it had three street frontages and, therefore, three
front yards. The variances requested included building height of
greater than 30 ft.; number of parking spaces required for the
ISM
Planning Commission Minutes 3 June 6, 1983
square footage of the structure--14 spaces short of required amount;
and, front yard setbacks for structures.
Planner Enger stated that one of the recommended conditions of
approval was the addition of pedestrian access from the site to the
Intersection of Bryant Lake Drive and Shady Oak Road.
Hallett asked if the parking spaces eliminated by the removal of the
western 12 ft. wide bank drive-out area could be made up anywhere
else on the site. Planner Enger stated that he did not feel that
they could.
Chairman Bearman questioned when the requirement for 8 parking
spaces per 1,000 gross sq. ft. of floor area for banks was
initiated. Planner Enger stated that it had been in effect for many
years.
Tim McCoy, architect for proponent, stated that the mechanical
equipment for the building had not yet been completely designed;
however, it was their intention to place the mechanical equipment
within the ceilings of the structure.
The Commission asked Mr. James about his intentions for use of the
building. Mr. James responded that, other than the bank, his firm
was the only other confirmed tenant at this time. It was his
intention tc use the top floor of the structure as office space for
Integral Refrigeration Systems, one of the firms he headed. At this
time, he had less than ten employees, but he wanted to reserve the
remainder of the top floor for growth of the company. His firm
built and designed grocery and small convenience stores. This
construction function would be staying in another location.
Mr. James stated that he was comfortable with the amount of parking
provided on the site. He added that, as the building owner, he did
not want to be in the position of creating a situation whereby his
tenants would have cause to complain about parking.
Torjesen stated that he felt the project was attractive and that the
land use for this parcel was appropriate. However, he stated
concern that the site was "too tight" for the volume of the use
proposed. Torjesen asked if the site could be scaled down to avoid
the need for any of the variances requested.
Mr. James responded that it would be rather difficult to do at this
time. He stated that he felt the variances requested were
justifiable based on the unusual circumstances of having three front
yards to the site based on the three street frontages and the
unusual shape of the parcel caused by the right-of-ways for the
roads. Mr. James pointed out that one of the variances required for
front yard setback was a situation where the parking lot "knicked"
the setback with a corner of the parking area.
Hallett questioned City policy regarding Cash Park Fees for such a
project. Staff responded that the project would be charged
(3')S
Planning Commission Minutes 4 June 6, 1983
$1,400.00 per acre per City Code.
Schuck asked Mr. James to explain the economics of removing.a floor
from the building. Mr. James stated that the parking structure was
an extremely expensive proposition for any developer. For example,
an asphalt surfaced parking lot would cost approximately $2-300 per
parking space. For a parking structure such as this, the cost was
closer to $4,000 per parking space. Mr. James stated that it was
necessary for him to be able to recover the cost of construction of
the ramp by having adequate rental space available within the
building.
Mr. James suggested that the City consider effective striping of the
parking lot to allow for smaller spaces, designated for compact cars
only. On his site, this would add several parking spaces. Staff
confirmed that eight spaces would be picked up by such a striping
method.
Marhula questioned whether the amount of right-of-way for the roads
in this area was excessive. Staff responded that it was greater
than required by Code. Marhula stated that he felt this should be
kept in mind in viewing the site. He stated that the amount of
right-of-way gained along Bryant Lake Drive alone would create a
situation where no setback variance would be necessary from this
frontage.
Schuck stated that he felt the magnitude of the variances requested
was not significant, but was justified based on the case presented
by proponent.
Torjesen expressed concern for the height of the structure. Mr.
James pointed out that each successive floor was smaller than the
one below it by the design. The site coverage was below the maximum
allowed by Code. He stated that the building was designed in this
manner to allow for use of the ground area for parking space
purposes, and even with that, and the parking structure, it was
still difficult to design the site with the required amount of
parking spaces.
Chairman Bearman asked for questions and comments from members of
the audience.
Jerry Steelman, 6601 Golden Ridge, stated that he would prefer to
see at least one story eliminated from the structure. He added that
he felt the building was attractively designed and felt the use
would provide a good neighbor for the existing residents.
Janet Gehereke, 6622 Golden Ridge, stated that she, too, felt the
structure was an attractive one, but felt that it should be required
to meet all Code requirements.
Curtis Knutson, 6511 Undestad Street, asked how the mechanical
equipment would be handled. Mr. McCoy, proponent's architect,
explained the procedure for placing the equipment within the
Planning Commission Minutes
5 June 6, 1983
ceilings of each floor. He pointed out that this added to the
height of each floor, as an alternative to placing all such
equipment on top of the building in view.
Mr. James stated that he felt the City could appreciate the
difficulties involved in designing a structure to fit such a site
with the physical constraints involved due to the roads. He stated
that he felt every effort had been made by his designers to prepare
a project that would fit the Code requirements as much as possible.
Chairman Bearman stated that there were many examples in the City
where the number of parking spaces required was in excess of the
needs of the uses within the structures. He suggested that perhaps
the time had come for the City to review the parking requirements
for various uses. He pointed out that the City of Minnetonka, for
example, required much less in terms of parking spaces for such uses
and appeared to be having no problems with a lesser requirement.
Gartner stated that she felt proponent had a difficult site to deal
with and had prepared an attractive project for the site.
MOTION:
Motion was made by Gartner, seconded by Schuck, to recommend to the
City Council approval of the requested zoning from Rural to Office
for office use for James Refrigeration, per written materials dated
May 3, 1983, and plans dated May 6, 1983, subject to the
recommendations of the Staff Report of June 3, 1983, and the
addition of the following conditions: #8. Parking lot lighting
shall be down-lighting, no more than 20 ft. in height, with cut-off
luminars; and #9. No mechanical equipment shall be located on the
roof of the structure.
Hallett stated that he would like proponent to consider an overpass,
if necessary, for pedestrian traffic if traffic patterns in the area
so indicated.
Torjesen stated that he still had concerns that the site was too
tightly designed and could be scaled down to meet Code.
Motion carried--4-2-0 (Hallett and Torjesen against)

Dear Mr. Mayor,
This letter is to inform you that the developers of the Prairie Oaks
Project have shared their plans with me for development of the parcel
directly across the street from the Wooddale Baptist Church property
(Bryant Lake Drive and Shady Oak Road).
Personally, 1 am delighted with the prospect of such a fine building
being constructed across from our church site.
This letter is to indicate that we have communicated with the Prairie
Oaks Project developer our willingness to mutually use each other's
parking lots. This would make available additional parking for church
use on weekends and evenings, plus make church parking available to the
tenants of the Prairie Oaks Project during normal working hours.
Sincerely,

STAFF REPORT
. TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Chris Enger, Director of Planning
DATE: June 3, 1983
PROJECT: James Refrigeration
LOCATION: Southwest corner of Shady Oak Road and Highway #169
APPLICANT: James Refrigeration
FEE OWNERS: Roy and Amelia Olson
REQUEST: Zoning from Rural to Office for 2.16 acres for a 38,000 sq. ft.,
five-story office building
Land Use
The Comprehensive Guide Plan is not of a scale which specifically calls out the land
use designation for this parcel. It shows up as undesignated on the Comprehensive
Guide Plan. However, the parcel is bounded on the north by a major collector road,
Shady Oak Road, and an office/commercial land use in the City West Planned Unit
Development. The land use to the west is a forty-acre regional church site for
Wooddale Baptist Church and the property to the east is industrial with #169 also on
the east. Since the parcel is pointed, there is no adjacent land to the south.
Further south is land between old #169 and new #169 owned by the Minnesota
Department of Transportation. The Planning Staff feels that the office land use
proposed is appropriate and consistent with the Comprehensive Guide Plan.
The existing zoning on the property is Rural. The land is not within the Shoreland,
Floodplain, nor does it require an Environmental Assessment Worksheet.
If the project is approved as proposed, it will require variances from the Board of
Appeals building height (approximately 50 ft., rather than the 30 ft. allowed), less
parking spaces are proposed than are required by Code; and front yard setback
variances for parking and structures for the parking ramp.
Site Plan
A 38,440 sq. ft. building, five stories in height, is proposed on a 94,612 sq. ft.
site, bringing the floor area ratio to 0.41. The site coverage by the building
proper is 12% and the site coverage by the parking deck is 29%. The amount of
building coverage in relationship to the site is relatively low for this type of
use. In many cases, building coverage in the Office District approaches 30%. The
design solution of going up a number of stories is appropriate for this site because
of the extraordinary constraints of having front yard setbacks from three separate
road frontages.
13'11
James Refrigeration Staff Report 2 June 3, 1983
There is no significant existing vegetation on the site, and the existing home and
outbuildings will be removed with development of the site. Because of the site's
relatively low topographic relationship with the surrounding roads, it is possible
to develop a two-tier parking situation. The proponent represents that the front
yard setback variances and the height variances, as well as the parking variances
are necessary for this program to work a the site of such constraint.
Water and sanitary sewer service would be connected under Bryant Lake .Drive to
existing mains lying on the west side of the road. Storm sewer for the entire
project would run into the #169 ditch. The proponent has met with the Watershed
District Staff regarding this, and it is possible that sedimentation or detention
structures will be required, but that the ultimate drainage to the #169 ditch is
acceptable.
Access to the site is from Bryant Lake Drive and the northern most access occurs
approximately 200 ft. south of the intersection of Shady Oak Road and Bryant Lake
Drive. The southern access occurs approximately 540 ft. south of the intersection
of Shady Oak Road and Bryant Lake Drive. The proposed access for the Wooddale
Baptist Church occuring on the west side of Bryant Lake Drive occurs approximately
390 ft. south of the intersection of Shady Oak Road and Bryant Lake Drive. This
will off-set the northern drive of Wooddale Baptist Church 190 ft. further south
than the northern drive of this use. This is an acceptable distance and access as
proposed is acceptable.
On-site circulation provides for bank parking and the bank drive-through, as well as
the upper level parking being accessed from the northern drive. The lower level
parking would be accessed from the southern drive, only, and would be a one-way
system through the lower level of the parking area, hence the separated drive
entrance to Bryant Lake Drive. The 12 ft. drive on the west side of the building,
immediately adjacent to the western property line, which will be utilized as the
drive-out area for the bank, should be eliminated, as it occurs completely within
the front yard setback and allows no opportunity for landscaping, which would
provide screening for the at-grade parking lying west of the building. The drive-
out from the bank drive-through would then have to occur through, the small at-grade
parking area west of the building.
The right-of-way proposed by this project for Bryant Lake Drive and Shady Oak Road
is sufficient. There will be 40 ft. of right-of-way from the centerline of Shady
Oak Road and between 60 and 68 ft. of right-of-way existing on the east side of
Bryant Lake Drive.
Since commercial services are expected north of this project in the City West area,
the developer should provide pedestrian access from this office building to the
Intersection of Shady Oak Road and Bryant Lake Drive.
Setbacks
The project depends upon a parking deck to accommodate the amount of square footage
of building being proposed. This parking deck is a structure, rather than simply a
parking lot, and, hence, is governed by the setback requirements for a structure.
On the M169 side of the project, the parking structure is within 17.5 ft. of the lot
line, and is required to be 35 ft. from the lot line. On the west side of the
parking structure, along the Bryant Lake Drive right-of-way the parking structure
is also required to be 35 ft. from the lot line, and is within 17.5 ft. of the lot
James Refrigeration Staff Report 3 June 3, 1933
line. The northern portion of the parking lot, which is not part of the parking
structure, would be required to be 17.5 ft. from the lot line and is 9 ft. from the
lot line. In order to bring the entire project into conformance with the Code, 38
parking spaces would have to be eliminated out of the total 190 provided. This
' would support approximately a 30,000 sq. ft. office building, or a 28,000 sq. ft.
office building, which contained a 4,000 sq. ft. bank.
The Planning Staff feels that the general approach to this site by the proponent is
correct; however, according to our Code, for this type of building, the requirement
for parking would be 5 spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. for office and 8 spaces per 1,000
sq. ft. for bank. That would be a total requirement of 204.5 parking spaces, when
190 spaces are provided. The Suburban National Bank main office in Eden Prairie was
approximately 11 parking spaces short of the Code requirement for their building,
which was a combination office and drive-in bank. That request was granted,
however, because of the additional land that Suburban National Bank owned adjacent
to the site, and because of the overflow parking possibilities available with the
shopping center adjacent. However, the Banco Northwestern Bank, now known as
Norwest, in Eden Prairie, had a parking requirement of 48 spaces and actually built
60 spaces. The Planning Staff feels that because there is no possibility to
increase the parking on this site if the parking provided is not adequate, that the
Code ought to be complied with in terms of number of spaces.
Anther item for the Planning Commission's consideration would be the
appropriateness of the site plan with the variances required along the Bryant Lake
Drive side of the property. The parking proposed within 9 ft. of the lot line
should probably be modified to conform to a 17.5 ft. setback, and if the parking
structure were also modified to conform to a 35 ft. setback, the number of parking
spaces that would be lost would approximately 14. This would put the proponent 28
spaces shy of the Code requirement, which would translate into approximately 5,600
sq. ft & of office space that would need to be reduced in order for the parking not
to be required.
An alternative to reducing this parking would be heavy landscaping of the corners of
the parking structure to mitigate their visual distance to the road, which, in
combination with the parts of the parking structure that are in well in excess of 35
ft. from the road, could be a mitigative measure that would be sufficient to allow
the parking to be constructed as shown.
RECOMMENDATIONS
If the Planning Commission feels that modification is necessary to the site plan in
order to bring it into conformance with the Code, returning this item to the
developer for such action would be appropriate.
If the Planning Commission feels that the development as proposed is appropriate,
the Planning Commission should recommend approval to the City Council of the
rezoning from Rural to Office District for 2.16 acres of property subject to the
following:
1. The western 12 ft. wide bank drive-out area should be eliminated in order to
provide adequate area for screening of the western parking lot.
2. Variances for height, number of parking spaces, front yard setbacks, would
all be required from the Board of Appeals.

FOR NEIL A. LEWIS ASSOCIATES
BE IT RESOLVED, by the Eden Prairie City Council as follows:
That the preliminary plat of Rembrandt Ridge Estates for Neil A. Lewis Associates.
' dated May 26, 1983, of 10.0 acres for 19 single family lots, a copy of which is on
file at the City Hall, is found to be in conformance with the provisions of the Eden
Prairie Zoning and Platting ordinances, and amendments thereto, and is herein

RE: Rembrandt Ridge Estates
Dear Mr. Dietz:
This proposed residential plat was considered and approved
at the June 6th Planning Commission meeting. Several residents
asked questions regarding the impact of this development on
their drainage problems. The planning commission indicated it
would be appropriate for them to address their concerns to you.
The concerns covered both surface and subsurface water
problems in the surrounding areas. Two or three residents some
distance away indicated they have excessive ground water to
pump out of their basements. This development would not affect
them in my opinion.
The owner of the undeveloped land directly to the south
questioned the availability of storm sewer, to his property.
We are proposing .... an 18" line to the edge of the property at a
depth that is reasonable. He also mentioned an easement for
drain tile across the Rembrant Ridge site. I'm not sure what
this is about, but he will certainly be able to connect to the
new storm sewer if he wIshes providej he can retalh sediu.tuc O.
his site. You will note that a significant portion of our site
that flows into the storm sewer system is being detained in
the drainage easement on lot 6, block 2. I recommend that as
the property to the south develops, they also provide detention
ponding.
Several residents of the Chatam Wood development backing
up to this project were present. Mr. Richard Sampson, owner of
lot 3, block 4, expressed concern about the existing 21" inlet
and potential erosion on his property. The current situation
is not ideal because of the steep topography involved, and he
would like to see this improved if possible. I spoke to Mr.
Sampson about this after the meeting and feel that with his
cooperation, we can improve the situation with our connection.
Our plan indicates a connection and inlet with a berm to contain
stormwater. It may be advantages to re-do the upper sections of
this 21" by installing a vertical bend and providing more cover

over the pipe. We can meet on site to discuss this in detail .
if requested.
One or two other residents of Chatam Wood backing ui) to
this project stated that they have problems with surface water
from the rear. I would expect the cause to be one of in-
adequate drainage swales to direct the water around and away
from their houses. The proposed development would have no
affect one way or another on this.
Please contact us if you need futher information or have
any questions regarding this development.
Sincerely yours,

RE: Rembrandt Ridge Estates
Dear Chris:
The staff review of this project submitted to the Planning
Commisssion on June 6th indicated lot 4, block 2 was short Of
the required 85' frontage. Please note that the road frontage
is 81' on the curve and 10' on the tangent. Also, it is my
understanding that the City has submitted plans to the 'watershed
and that comments or approval is forthcoming.
I must add that we are very pleased with the timing and
manner in which this project has been handled and reviewed by
the City and staff.
Please contact us if there are any questions or a need for
additional information on this project.

RE: Neil A. Lewis Plat
Dear Chris:
We have enclosed three sets of the preliminary plat for
distribution and review. It is our understanding that on May
20th we are to submit 32 sets for the Planning Commission
meeting. We solicit any preliminary comments you may have so
we can incorporate these into the drawings to be submitted
next week.
• We are requesting two variances on this plat.
First, the cul-de-sac length exceeds the 500' maximum.
Our reason for this request is that the cul-de-sac can be
eliminated when the property to the south develops and the
looping of this street is completed.
Second, a variance of the City Code Section 11.03, Subd.
3, Item C, is requested relating to Lot 4, Block 1. We feel
the house on this lot should be situated to overlook the
natural ridge in line with the other houses on the east side
of this plat. We feel the physical continuity of this house
site is preferable to maintaining a 30' front setback distance.
There appears to be no negative impact on adjacent home sites
on or out of this plat. I am not sure what the reason for
this City Code is, so please advise us if it is applicable
in this case.
Please feel free to contact myself or Neil with your
comments or questions.
Sincerely yours,

STAFF REPORT
• TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Stephen Sullivan, Assistant Planner
THOUGH: Chris Enger, Director of Planning
DATE: June 3, 1983
PROJECT: Rembrandt Ridge Estates Addition
LOCATION: East of 168th Avenue and South of Chatham Woods
APPLICANT: Neil A. Lewis and Associates
FEE OWNER: Myron Roeder
REQUESTS: 1. Zoning from Rural to R1-13.5
2. Preliminary Plat of 10.4 acres for 19 lots
Background/Land Use
The present zoning for the parcel is Rural. The Guide Plan depicts low density
residential for the site and the adjacent parcels.
Existing Site Character
The site is bordered on the north by Chatham Woods, an R1-13.5 residential
development; on the south by a rural farmstead; on the east by Timber Creek, a
proposed residential Planned Unit Development; and on the west by Coachlight Manor,
an established R1-22 residential development. The legal description places the west
property line at the centerline of West 168th Avenue.
The 10.4 acres is currently platted as two 5+ acre lots. A home exists within the
northeast corner of the site. The structure will be saved and platted as a
component of the overall site plan.
The western portion of the site slopes gradually from 1-8%. The eastern portion of
the site is characterized by rolling terrain with grades ranging from 5-40%.
Drainage for a majority of the site runs to a centrally located swale, which drains
to the north. In the northern and eastern area is a wooded ridge line, which drains
off-site to the east at a 35% grade.
Tree masses of basswood, ash, and oak are found along the ridge line, swale, north
central, and southeast sections of the site. The remaining portion of the site is
in meadow grasses.
The soil conditions are conducive to development.

Ordinance Requirements
All lots meet or exceed the minimum lot size, width, depth, and setback requirements
with the exception of Lot 4, Block 2, which does not conform to the corner lot width
requirement of 85 ft.
Following is the proposed lot area information for the project:

19,000 sq. ft. to 20,000 sq. ft. 2
20,000 sq. ft. and over 5
Gross Density: 1.82 units per acre
Slte Plan
Access to the parcel would be directly across from North Manor road from West 168th
Avenue. The road will continue to the east following the lay of the land and then
bend to the south property line, ending with a temporary cul-de-sac. This allows
for the continuation of the road to the south with future development (Figure #1).
The plat reflects a right-of-way for the temporary cul-de-sac. The site layout
fronts lots on both sides of this road. Three lots will front West 168th Avenue.
The volume of traffic generated by the project can be handled by the adjacent road
system.
A minimum amount of grading is proposed. The grading plan indicates the
preservation of the ridge and the northern and eastern tree masses. The existing
swale will be realigned and graded, tying the on-site drainage to the storm water
system. Several willows and basswoods will be lost with the grading of the swale.
Water, sanitary, and storm sewer are to be placed within the street right-of-way.
Both water and sanitary sewer tie to the existing mains along West 168th Avenue.
The utilities will be stubbed to the south property line allowing future connections
with the development of the south parcel. The storm water system ties to an
existing main stubbed from Chatham Woods to this project's north property line.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Planning Staff recommends approval of zoning from Rural to R1-13.5 and
preliminary plat, subject to the following:
1. Prior to Final Plat:
a. The proponent shall meet with the Engineering Department with regard
to water, storm and sanitary sewer.
139 I
Rembrandt Ridge Estates 3 June 3, 1983
b. The right-of-way for West 168th Avenue, as indicated by the
preliminary plat, shall be dedicated to the City.
c. Lot 4, Block 2 shall be revised to meet the minimum corner lot width
requirement.
d. The cul-de-sac shall be designed and have signage per the
Engineering Department specifications.
e. The right-of-way adjacent to the proposed temporary cul-de-sac shall
be 50 ft., typical of the proposed through-road, and easements shall
be necessary from Lot 9, Block 2 and Lot 10, Block 1, for the
temporary use and implementation of this cul-de-sac.
f. The proponent shall receive Watershed District approval.
2. Prior to building permit issuance, proponent shall pay the required Cash
Park Fee.

Planning Commission Minutes 6 June 6, 1983
Planner Enger reviewed the Staff Report of June 6, 1983 and reviewed
the recommendations of Staff to be met regarding design detail for
the project.
Marhula asked if the cul-de-sac had been designed to City
specifications. Staff responded that it had.
Chairman Bearman asked for questions and comments from members of
the audience.
Bill Michaelson, 16167 Whittington Walk, stated concern for the
drainage of the site and how it would affect the lots to the north.
Staff responded that the detail of the storm sewer would be reviewed
and dealt with by the Engineering Department before the Council
review.
Anita Gelderhaus, 16855 North Manor Road, stated that she, too, was
experiencing storm water problems and asked that Staff review this
prior to final action on the project.
Curtis Knutson, 6511 Undestad, stated that even though his lot was
higher in elevation than the project proposed, he was also
experiencing water problems in his area.
Donna Healen, 16795 Whittington Walk, asked if there ever became a
point with a project where the City would state that it would not be
feasible due to the costs involved. She stated that the reason for
her question was that her neighborhood, Chatham Woods, had been
assessed much more than the average amount due to the public
Improvements projects for their area. She questioned whether this
particular storm sewer project would be assessed against lots in her
neighborhood. Chairman Bearman stated that this would be a decision
for Council in the future, but that the developer would be
responsible for the work to be done which would be required as a
result of development of the project parcel.
Bob Borosh, 6470 Undestad, asked who would be responsible for any
mistakes made or problems caused as a result of this development.
Staff responded that it would have to be determined by attorneys at
the time of the situation.
Bob Lund, 6501 W. 168th Avenue, questioned whether the storm sewer
for this project would affect his property. He stated that his
property was wet at this time.
Dick Settingson, 16752 Whittington Walk, expresed concern for the
storm sewer situation, also. He asked if there would be more water
flowing through the area than currently. He stated that he felt the
density of this project was greater than the Chatham Woods area and
questioned whether it would affect his property values. He asked
Mr. Nelson if covenants and restrictions would be available for
review by the public in the future. Mr. Nelson stated that none
were proposed.

7 June 6, 1983
Hallett questioned whether a walkway system had been considered for
this project. Staff responded that the streets were of a low

considered for this small site. Staff stated that a sidewalk may be
appropriate along the street.

Motion was made by Gartner, seconded by Schuck, to close the public
hearing.
Motion carried--6-0-0

RE: Douglas Driveway/Beverly Drive Extension
As requested by City Council, the Engineering Division has prepared a cost
estimate for providing alternate access to the Douglas property and other
adjacent parcels from Beverly Drive. The attached sketch shows three segments
of the proposed improvement. The first segment brings Beverly Drive to the
northwest corner of the Douglas parcel and has a cost of approximately $43,000.
About half of this cost is due to the fill required to go across the ravine
which lies north of the Douglas parcel. The total distance is 660 feet.
The second segment of the roadway consists of 550 feet of paving and has a
cost of $18,000. In connection with the extension of Beverly Drive, this
segment would serve all but the westerly two parcels adjacent to Dell Road.
The final segment is shown on the sketch is 1230 feet long and would connect
to Dell Road. The cost associated with this segment is $41,000.
The estimated costs are based on building a road identical to Beverly Drive
as it exists today. This is a 24 foot wide rural section with 1 foot shoulders.
These costs do not include any engineering design fees nor any fees that would
be associated with an assessment project. Also, no right-of-way costs were
included in the estimate.
Finally, part of the project was to determine if tbe road could be extended
east of the Douglas property to eliminate the need for existing driveways
on the Norberg parcel and any future driveways that may occur. Due to the
proximity of one of the buildings on the Douglas property, it would be difficult
to provide a roadway to the east. I understand that the building in question
Is a garage which was used by Douglas as a residence until his home construction
was completed. I will be available at the Council meeting to answer additional
questions regading this matter..

MR. GEORGE BENTLEY
EDEN PRAIRIE CITY COUNCIL rJUN 1 4 1983
8950 EDEN PRAIRIE RCAD
EDEN PRAIRIE, MN 55344
Dear Mr. Bentleys
It has come to my attention that we were scheduled for a hearing on
Tuesday evening, June 7th. We had been informed that our meetings were
on May 20th (Planning staff), June 6th (Park, Recreation and Natural Resources)
and City Council on June 15th. On June 8th, my contractor, Mr. Ed Sullivan,
was called by Jean Johnson and asked why we were not present at the meeting
the night before. He informed her that he was riven the date of June 15th.
Her reply was that we were told on the evening of June 6th at the meeting, of
the meeting the following evening. I recorded the entire conversation from
the moment of beginning the meeting to the point of walking out the door, and
there is absolutely no mention of a council meeting on June 7th or of our being
on the agenda. I take this opportunity to apologize to you for your inconvenience
for our not being there.
Jean Johnson also related to my contractor that the issue was tabled
and referred to engineering for further study. It was also mentioned that
Beverly Drive could be extended to accommodate our access. Beverly Drive
at this point will in all probability cause more problems than we already
have. It will increase traffic and loss of all privacy for land owners,
which is the only reason any of us are living here. The road would have to
,extend west and reviewing the slope drop to the north of the easement road, there would be a considerable amount of fill. At present Beverly Drive sheds
its water through an open culvert and each Spring the run off floods the
Norberg property and curs three to five feet. If the road was extended what
are you going to do with the additional Spring run off?
Once again I would like to review our reason for access to Highway 169.
When I purchased this farm land from the Turnbulls I was granted an easement.
That private easement is only one car width and very long. Some years later a
small 200' width five acre parcel was sold because of a need for cash by one
of its owners with Mr. Turnbull. At that time Mr. Turnbull related to me he
was going to build a new home on the rest nf the acres in the future. I question
the village on the pro ability of someone building on the 200' width and they
all agreed that it could only be done when sewer and water were brought in and
the zoning laws changed to comply with residential.
-2-
The new owner made application for a variance and it was granted so
they could build. A letter was sent out by the village to adjacent land owners
to see if anyone objected. (See Attached)
By the village granting that variance on that narrow piece of ground
has caused a lot of problems. As you probably well know it is a very large
cemetery site and a subject and problem that will continue to plague city
officials. We had a group of people who were in a position to purchase the
property and donate it to the city, but at that time(one year ago) the cemetery
was felt to be better suited for roads and buildings.
The village has in essence taken away our private access to our property
by granting variances and building permits to that piece of property. We are
now told to share a very narrow, long driveway that is impassable. I operate a commercial bee farm on our property And two other businesses and I cannot be
in a position not to be able to get out of my property because of an illegal
blockage of access.
On purchasing the property and later when I went in for my building permit,
I was told I had to have access to 169. I also had to have 300' width for that
access onto 169. We now felt the time was right to proceed with that road to
alleviate the stress in our lives caused by our once private access road. I
made application to the State of Minnesota Highway Department requesting permission
and guidance in establishing a new private driveway. I also explained in detail
the reasons why we needed the driveway and so the State of Minnesota had compassion
and granted us the easement.
Last fall we made application for a stable and were granted the permit.
The new road is access to and from that building. At present we are unable
to proceed because the heavy cement and block trucks are not able to back up
the road. At the bottom of the bluff we operate our bee colonies and we
service them by this same road. We derive part of our yearly income from
the bees and this bee yard.
It came to our attention that a new ordinance had been passed by the
village specifically for the bluff area. Jean Johnson informed UB we were in violation and halted completion of the road. The construction has been 90%
completed and the road has stabilized itself without top gravel. 5% of the road is subject to washing out because construction was halted. It was our 'agreement to the State of Minnesota to get the job completed as quickly as
possible to eliminate any wash out and erosion. We have had several heavy
rainfalls and 910 of that which was somewhat graded is showing no washing at all.
We and the State do have a concern for the part that may wash out onto Hirhway 169
which would result in a very dangerous and expensive repair.
At present I have been subject to a substantial financial loss in work
being halted and equipment removed. The stable building bids are up for review
and now could cost us more. The honey flow has begun and staked bails of hay
on the road plus a large mound of dirt block our drive to the bee yard. This
could also be a large financial loss.
I don't mind working 12 to 14 hour days, six days a week, but my family
and I have been more than patient in waiting and going to meetings, then we are
told we may have to wait another month before we can have a hearing. The two city
committees have approved the driveway and granted us accers to 169 and realize that the city had made commitments to us prior to the new ordinance.
1(10'1
WO feel that at this point we have been subjected to financial loss
and many sleepless nights. I feel it is unfair and an unconstitutional
procedure that the city has taken against us. Neither I nor the other
bluff residents have ever been notified of a bluff ordinance. I agreed
to proceed with the meetings and then an told one date and not informed
of the actual date of the City Council meeting in Which we were on the
agenda, I do not understand that kind of city government.
It is the duty of the Eden Prairie City Council and City Manager to
see to it that such proceedings and ordinances do not conflict with the
Constitution of the United States. In the meantime, I shall have to trust
in Cod to resolve this hardship and if need be, my right of trial by jury
(Art. 3, Sec. 2, paragraph 3, and Amendment Art. 6 & 7 of the Constitution)
to save me from the threatened and unfair treatment.
Thank you for your consideration and time.
Sincerel ours,

RESOLUTION #83-157
RESOLUTION APPROVING THE REGISTERED LAND SURVEY FOR LEE DATA/OPUS CORPORATION
BE IT RESOLVED, by the Eden Prairie City Council as follows:
That the Registered Land Survey for Lee Data/Opus Corporation, dated February 3,
1983, of 0.4 acres for secondary access to Lee Data from W. 70th Street, a copy of
which is on file at the City Hall, is found to be in conformance with the provisions
of the Eden Prairie Zoning and Platting ordinances, and amendments thereto, and is
herein approved.
ADOPTED by the Eden Prairie City Council on the day of
, 1983.
Wolfgang H. Penzel, Mayor
ATTEST:
John D. Frane, City Clerk
STAFF REPORT
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Stephen Sullivan, Assistant Planner
VOUGH: Chris Enger, Director of Planning
DATE: June 24, 1983
PROJECT: Lee Data Access
APPLICANT: Opus Corporation
FEE OWNER: Opus Corporation/Lee Data
LOCATION: West of West 70th Street adjacent to Lee Data
REQUEST: Preliminary Plat of approximately 0.4 acres to provide secondary
access to Lee Data from W. 70th Street
Lee Data has constructed a road within the area of the proposed preliminary plat as
a private road to provide a secondary access to the Lee Data site from W. 70th
Street. At the time of development, the road alignment ran across three properties.
Mutual easements were needed allowing for the construction of the road. The third
iarty's property has since been sold to Opus Corporation, resolving the need for
mutual easements of the three property owners. Lee Data and Opus Corporation have
jointly placed the access road from W. 70th Street to the Lee Data site per the
developer's agreement and consistent with City specifications. In order to record
the legal description of this action with Hennepin Coucnty, a bonafied plat is
needed.
W. 70th Street is proposed to continue to the west, adjacent to the north property
line of Lee Data and tying to Flying Cloud Drive. A 35 ft. right-of-way has been
dedicated to the City along the north property line of Lee Data. The future
development of the adjacent northern parcel will provide an additional 35 ft. of
right-of-way allowing for the future extension of W. 70th Street. The proposed plat
Is complimentery to the alignment and right-of-way needs for this extension. The
proponent shall dedicate the proposed platted area to the City for right-of-way
purposes upon the completion of the W. 70th Street connection to Flying Cloud Drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS
The Planning Staff recommends approval of the preliminary plat subject to the
following conditions:
1. Any easement agreements between Opus Corporation and Lee Data regarding the
private access road shall be submitted to the City for review and approval
prior to final plat.
2. The platted area shall be dedicated to the City for right-of-way purposes
upon completion of the W. 70th Street extension to Flying Cloud Drive.
STAFF REPORT
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Chris Enger, Director of Planning
DATE: June 24, 1983
PROJECT: Target
APPLICANT: Homart Corporation and Target, Inc.
FEE OWNER: Homart Development Corporation
REQUEST: Site Plan Review for a proposed 100,000 sq. ft. commercial building
on 10.3 acres of land
LOCATION: Adjacent to and immediately west of Eden Prairie Center
.Background
The existing Eden Prairie Mall was zoned in 1973 Cowercial-Regional according to a
specific plan. That plan illustrated a 750,000 sq. ft. first phase which was to
Include Powers and Sears as the majors. The plan also anticipated two additional
major department stores: one on the east and one on the west side of the shopping
center. The Target store proposed is planned in the general location of the third
major department store on the west side of the Eden Prairie Mall, directly in front
of the lower level west-facing entrance. The original plan was for a major
department store to occupy approximately 60,000 sq. ft. of ground area and to be
multi-story. The current proposal is for a 100,000 sq. ft., single story Target
store. In order to accomplish a single story building on a site that has been
graded for a multiple story structure, 19 ft. of fill over the entire building pad
Is necessary. The Target store, as proposed, would then be at the elevation of the
upper level parking lot, or the Powers level parking lot.
Parking
Since the overall shopping mall is expected to be approximately 1,000,000 sq. ft., a
parking ratio of 5.5 parking spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. of gross floor area was
required for the City, bringing the total requirement of parking for the center up
to about 5,500 cars. The proposed Target store would provide 505 total parking
spaces on Target's piece of property. The total requirement for the Target store is
563 spaces. The balance of the spaces not provided on the Target parcel will have
to be accommodated through a reciprocal easement arrangement with the balance of the
mall. The total parking for the shopping center with Target is 5,683.
The parking lot west of the Powers building, where Target parking is proposed to
occur, would be partially reconstructed to accomnodate the new grades for the
proposed building.
Landscaping
A requirement of the original shopping center approval was an overall landscaping
plan. There were literally hundreds of tree planters scattered throughout the
massive parking area. 35 of these parking lot tree planters will be lost with new
construction. 22 new islands are proposed.
Landscaping of the existing sloped area, which separates the upper level Powers
parking from the lower level Center parking, will be lost with the new construction.
This landscaping should be replaced in kind in the new proposal.
Building Review
The developer has submitted building elevations of the Target store, and is
proposing a cast in concrete exposed aggregate panel as an exterior material. The
exterior of the entire shopping center is brick, so in order to be totally
compatible in texture, material, and tone, the exterior of the Target store should
be brick.
The proposed store projects over 100 ft. further out towards the western perimeter
of the shopping center site than the planned department store. At the west end of
the Target store, the loading area with three truck bays, the garden center, and
five garage door entrances to the tire, battery and accessory area are planned.
Although a partial attempt has been made to screen the loading area through the use
of plant material: the truck area, garden center, and tire, battery, and accessory
area will all be extremely visible from the western major entrance and from Highway
#169.
The garden center is proposed to be an outdoor display area enclosed with vinyl clad
brown cyclone fencing. A comparison of treatment of these elements of the building
to other solutions for Target stores in other communities would illustrate that the
truck loading areas in other communities are usually located on the back of a Target
store, out of view of the public. The garden center, in both the Southdale and
Ridgedale Targets, is a more elaborate treatment, utilizing brick pillars and
fencing to provide additional enclosure and some screening of the outdoor storage
material. The tire, battery, and accessory area on the existing Sears building for
the Eden Prairie Center, is handled through the use of a screen wall, so that the
garage doors are not directly exposed to public view.
Construction Timing
The developer has explained that Homart wishes to begin construction of the 100,000
cubic yards of fill necessary for the building pad and parking lot construction in
mid-July of this year, with Target to follow with construction of the building
beginning either in late Fall of this year, or late Winter of 1984. Planned opening
of the Target store would be Fall, 1984. The store would be a free-standing store
separated from the existing mall by eighty feet, but connected with a skyway
entrance.
Signage
Wall signs are illustrated on three sides of the building--the north, west, and
south sides. No size has been detailed on the plans, and no scale has been given on
the elevations, so the size of the signs is unknown at this time. . No freestanding
signs, nor additional signs, have been proposed.
Mechanical Equipment
Target is proposing four large mechanical equipment units on top of the building.
Target represents that these units are self-screening, although these units are
similar to most other mechanical equipment units the City has seen constructed in
Eden Prairie. It is possible that, with the size of the building, and the
relationship of elevation around the building, that the four mechanical units will
not be visible from the west, east, or south sides of the building. This is not
possible to tell from the information that has been submitted, however.
Pedestrian Lighting, Outdoor Furniture
Provision should be made in some area of the front of the building to provide a
storage area for the carts that are part of all Target operations. This storage
area should be planned so that the carts are screened from the general public.
Pedestrian lighting is not illustrated on the plans, but should be provided across
the front of the building along the major sidewalk.
RECOMMENDATIONS
If the Planning Commission chooses to recommend approval of this item to the City
Council, Staff would recommend the following changes and additions be made prior to
CoOncil review:
1. Brick, compatible with the shopping mall should be utilized as an exterior
material.
2. Site cross-sections taken from the north, south, and west should be
completed, which illustrate that the mechanical equipment on top of the
building is not visible from these directions.
3. . The landscaping plan, which has been submitted, is inadequate in the
quantity of plant material provided in that it does not replace tree for
tree within the parking area, trees lost; and the amount of landscaping
across the west and south elevations of the building should increased both
for screening and to break up the long monolithic mass of the building.
Additional overstory trees should be added along the north face of the
building, also in order to break up the long monolithic mass.
4. The tire, battery, and accessory area should be treated in a manner similar
to the treatment of the Sears tire, battery, and accessory area, and plans
completed and submitted which illustrate this. The treatment of the Sears
area was through a low brick wall, which screened the garage door entrances
from the general public.
5. The garden center area should be redesigned to be incorporated more
architecturally integral with the building, similar to the way in which the
garden center for the Ridgedale Target store was done. This store
incorporated a brick and wrought iron fence wall attractively blended in to
the architecture of the building.
6; The treatment of the three-dock loading area on the west end of the building
is unacceptable. This loading area should be treated in a manner similar to
the other loading areas for the Sears mall. The treatment on other loadin
g
dock areas includes a complete canopy over the dock maneuvering and parkin
g
area. In addition, screening in front of the canopy should be accomplished
with heavy landscaping.
7. Plans should be developed, which provide for storage of the carts utilize
d
for the Target store, which screen this storage from the general public.
The Planning Commission may wish to consider a recommendation which woul
d
require a design which would physically preclude the use of carts in th
e
parking lot areas.
8. Since the pedestrian way, which currently exists in the location proposed
for the Target store, ties the Eden Prairie Center to the west out to the
peripheral land uses is a strong pedestraian link, it should be retained and
enhanced with the Target proposal. This should be done through the use of
landscaping, surface texture materials, and pedestrian lighting along the
front of the building, similar to the treatment of the Southdale Target.
9. All signage shall be on the building and a scale shall be provided for the
elevations submitted. The size of the signage on the building shall be
consistent with the City Code. No freestanding signs are proposed, and no
freestanding signs shall be permitted.

Comm. No. 81-101
Dear Mayor Penzel and Members of the City Council:
During the past several months, we have been working with our client, Paul
Thomas, the lender's representative he is placing his financing with, and his
contractor to refine the preliminary drawings which we have previously pre-
pared and submitted to your City Staff members, the Planning Commission and
Council for review and approval. This refinement has been necessary due to
the need to further articulate and understand the construction costs associ-
ated with the project as contemplated and with the available financing.
To bring the costs in line with the available financing, we have explored a
number of possible revisions to the previously submitted and approved draw-
ings. The plans have been submitted to City Staff for review, and we ask
that the City Council consider these changes for review and approval at the
next Council meeting, the evening of July 5.
Basically, the proposed revisions are as follows:
1. We have eliminated one leg of the U-shaped guest room area and replaced
it with a 2-story pool side room area. The number of guest rooms remains
the same, however. In doing so, we were able to reduce the area of the
building by over 3,000 square feet.
2. We have indicated a 15 foot wide swaled area behind the building on the
north side sloping from the top of the hill down to grade to eliminate
the need for a high retaining wall. This is as indicated on the revised
landscape drawing prepared by Howard Dahlgren Associates. As you will
note, none of the existing trees which were to remain on the hill have
been eliminated.

slightly modified. We have eliminated the 3-story atrium and filled i

that area on all floors above the first with guest rooms (the total
s

feel are excessively deep (in some instances 10 to 15 deep) to effect
economies in costs. We believe that we can demonstrate that we still
w

have the necessary screening for automobiles and provide a strong

EDEN PRAIRIE
SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING
SDAY, MARCH 22, 1983
COUNCIL MEMBERS:
CITY COUNCIL STAFF:
7:30 PM, CITY HALL
Mayor Wolfgang Penzel, Richard Anderson, George
Bentley, Paul Redpath and George Tangen
City Manager Carl J. Jullie; Finance Director
John Frane; Planning Director Chris Enger;
Director of Community Services Robert Lambert;
Director of Public Works Eugene Dietz; Chief
Building Inspector Wayne Sander's; City Assessor
Robert Martz, and Police Captain Keith Wall
ALSO PRESENT: Mark Weber, Eden Prairie News
ROLL CALL: All Council members present.
I. APPROVAL OF AGENDA AND OTHER ITEMS OF BUSINESS
The.following item was added to the Agenda under "New Business": "Request for
waiver of raffle license fee by the Eden Prairie Senior Citizens organization".
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Anderson, to approve the agenda as amended.
' Motion carried unanimously.
I. DISCUSSION OF CITY GOALS
Council members and staff referred to the City Manager's memo of March 18, 1983,
which listed thirteen general City goals to be reviewed. The following is a
summary of the comments made and the actions taken under each item:
1. Look for ways to help the City deliver its services more efficiently,
including the use of residents time and talents in helping provide
some services. Also look for ways to cut paperwork and fully utilize
data and word processing equipment. Encourage staff participation and
input. Work in all ways toward professional administration and staff
work, including courteous, friendly and responsive attitudes toward
the public.
COMMENTS:
• Staff reviewed the potential use of volunteers for some areas
of park maintenance activities. There was some question
about the City's liability exposure in the instances of volunteers using
City equipment. It would be appropriate to encourage volunteer
organizations to cut infield grass with small mowers in lieu of City
staff doing same.
It was suggested that staff inquire of the business community any
suggestions they might have with respect to volunteer services
they might be in a position to provide.
It was suggested that staff explore the possibility of utilizing
employees from local businesses who may be firefighters in other
communities. Those businesses may be open to allowing their
employees to respond to fires in Eden Prairie.
Staff should investigate the potential for a leadership exchange . /1/i9
City Council Minutes 2 March 22, 1983
Mr. Bentley will follow-up with more information on this through
the Chamber.
Other suggestions included inviting business people to visit with
the staff department heads at City Hall for an exchange of ideas.
Also it was noted that studies indicate that persons tend to lose
their educational skills in a short period of time because of the
advancement of technology, and that we should have training on
a periodic basis to update our knowledge and maintain our skills.
There was also discussion about reducing the volume of paper and
a suggestion that the Council packets could be printed on both
sides of the paper.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to refer No. 1 back
to staff for more detail and specific recommendations with the
intent of completing a long range plan to be updated annually.
Staff is further directed to report back on this item within three
months. Motion carried unanimously.
2. Help build and reinforce Community identity:
a) Provision of information and adoption of procedures to make
Eden Prairie a Minnesota "Star City",
b) Work towards Mainstreet U.S.A. designation,
COMMENTS:
Council directed staff to proceed with a review of these designations
and to investigate any cost implications which may result as a
product of such designations.
c) Continuation of work with Chamber of Commerce to assure a -good
business climate and quality development in Eden Prairie --
should include maximum effort to "woo" high quality, clean
industry and business to City and pursuance of corporate image.
MOTION: Tangen moved, seconded by Bentley, to work towards better
.understanding of and formalizing relationships between the Chamber,
Development Commission and City Council. Also a better definition •
of the role of the Development Commission is needed. Motion carried
unanimously.
d) Explore and implement ways to fully utilize Cable T.V. access.
COMMENTS:
Council directed staff to look at the technical and financial aspects
of Cable T.V. and to review the potential for broadcast of Council
meetings.
3. Begin Guide Plan Update process:

evaluation of these programs is still in the future.
Information that does support the concept of the wellness program is:
. Ever increasing costs of medical benefits paid by the employer. Health-
benefits paid to the employer has increased more than 800 percent over
the past 25 years.
. High rate of premature death among valuable employees. Premature deaths cos

American industry more than $25 billion annually.
These deaths cost industry 132 million work days of lost output each year.
. Heart attacks kill more than 500,000 Americans each year. The American
Heart Association estimates that industry pays $700 million each year
to recruit replacements for employees because of heart disease.
Back pain afflicts 75 million workers, accounting for $1 billion in lost
output, plus $250 million in workers' compensation claims annually.
Growing employmec interest in health, fitness and illness prevention, A
strong fitness program including a fitness facility available at the work
place can be a definite recruitment advantage when hiring new employees.
American companies have also entered into wellness programs due to lagging
American productivity. For the past decade of American business and
industry, the productivity of American business and industry has stagnated,
while German and Japanese productivity have been increasing by as much as
10 percent a year. Particularly in Japan, humanized working conditions and
employee fitness programs have been recognized as playing a key role in that
country's rise to high-level productivity and high-quality products.
The wellness program has many aspects and components. The three main areas i

The wellness program has many aspects and components. Exercise is often the key
ingredient, but the wellness concept goes beyond just fitness dealing with the
whole person. Some of the classes or groups involved in various wellness program
include:
• medical screening
. nutrition counseling
• weightloss groups
• smoking-cessation groups
• stress management
. exercise
• CPR
. bank-injury prevention
• saftey awareness
• body-mechanics education
• aerobics
• alternative food choices
• health risk reduction
• risk identification
• high risk/high yield programs
• lifestyle assessment
• heart rate (maximum, target
heart rate, resting heart rate)
Most larger wellness programs employ an exercise expert and usually have a
physiologist or physician and a nutrition expert as consultants or on retainer.
Training is held through various agencies, two include: The American Association
of Fitness Directors in Business and Industry and Wellness Promotion Stategies
Conference Sponsored by Institute for Lifestyle Improvement - University of
Wisconsin, Stevens Point.
The key concepts of a wellness program usually include: •
. Risk Identification - Risk factors include both personal habits, (such
as cigarette smoking, excessive consumption of alchohol, food intake and
quality of food intake) and medical conditions (high blood pressure, high
scrum cholestrol, sodium level problems).
. Health Risk Reduction - Most models include ways to reduce your risks,
and most models share the following assumptions:
--to reduce a health risk, those at risk must first consider
their susceptibility to a particular illness, recognize its
importance, and believe that they can change their behavior
to reduce their risks
--an attempt to change and believe that recommended changes
are within the participant's ability
--motivation to achieve the change
--support participant's effort to maintain their new behavior
STRESS
Stress is defined as any response of the body to demands being made on it.
Only you can give stress to yoUrself and only you can take it away.
Stages of Burnout
1. Fatigue - sleeplessness, eating or not eating, want and need more and more sleep.
2. Social Burnout - tired of dealing with people. Seek isolation. Tend to shift
priorities from people to things.
3. Intellectual Burnout - tired of thinking, inattention, clock watcher, just meet
deadlines.
4. Psycho-emotional "my needs are not being met". Nothing excites you, bored, re-
active instead of proactive. reactive=tolerance - proactive-coping
S, Spiritual Burnout - impact on others is negative or neutral. No spark, alienated,
threatened.
Stress can be dealt with in many ways. Simple ones can include four phases of coping
with stress.
1. To become informed and aware of stress.
2. To identify stress producing factors.
3. To select coping stategies that suit the individual needs.
4. The commitment to make necessary changes to effectively cope with stress.
Other are more detailed forms and relaxation techniques.

APPENDIX
STRESS MANAGEMENT "TIPS"
PEOPLE COME TO THE WALLINGFORD WELLNESS PROJECT NOT ONLY TO LEARN, BUT
TO SHARE SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE THEY ALREADY HAVE. WE ALL HAVE OUR FAVORITE
MEANS OF RELAXING AND MANAGING STRESS. THE FOLLOWING LIST OF IDEAS WAS
COMPILED FROM SUGGESTIONS MADE BY THE WELLNESS PARTICIPANTS AND STAFF.
1. SIMPLIFY YOUR LIFE. PRIORITIZE YOUR SCHEDULE AND DO ONE THING AT A
TIME. ALLOW TIME EACH DAY FOR FUN AND RELAXATION - SOMETHING YOU ENJOY
DOING. FOR EXAMPLE, ONE PARTICIPANT SAYS SHE FINDS THAT "SITTING AND
PETTING MY CAT IS VERY RELAXING."
2. AVOID PROCRASTINATION. ONE WOMAN SAID STARTING OR FINISHING SOMETHING
YOU HAVE BEEN MEANING TO DO -- SUCH AS CLEANING OUT YOUR SHELVES -- IS
A GOOD WAY TO REDUCE TENSION.
3. BE ASSERTIVE. LEARN TO SAY "NO" IN A FIRM WAY SO THAT YOU WON'T FIND
YOURSELF TAKING ON MORE THAN YOU CAN HANDLE. DEVELOP SKILLS IN NEGOTIATION
AND COMPROMISE.
4. ENGAGE IN SOME KIND OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY SUCH AS JOGGING OR BICYCLING.
TWO PARTICIPANTS HAVE MADE WALKING SEVERAL MILES TOGETHER PART OF THEIR
DAILY ROUTINE.
5. WORK WITH YOUR HANDS. SOME PARTICIPANTS FIND PAINTING OR KNITTING
RELAXING. A NUMBER OF OTHERS ARE AVID GARDENERS.
6. PRACTICE NEUROMUSCULAR RELAXATION TECHNIQUES, MEDITATION OR YOGA. ONE
PARTICIPANT HAS BEEN PRACTICING PROGRESSIVE RELAXATION TECHNIQUES FOR
MANY YEARS AND CLAIMS TO RARELY FEEL TENSE.
7. PLAY AN INSTRUMENT, OR LISTEN TO MUSIC OR RELAXATION TAPES. TRY MUSIC
AS A BACKGROUND TO READING OR TAKING A HOT BATH. A STAFF MEMBER ENJOYS
CLASSICAL MUSIC WHILE ROCKING IN A ROCKING CHAIR.
8. TREAT YOURSELF OR OTHERS TO A MASSAGE. ONE PARTICIPANT, NOTING A GREAT
DEAL OF STRESS AT WORK, TAUGHT SHOULDER AND NECK MASSAGE TO HER CO-WORKERS.

11 rules for
you to follow
( -11 dealing with
your tensions
"At any given time. 25 percent of the
population is under the kind of
emotional stress that results in
symptoms of depression or
anxiety."
—President's
Commission on Mental Health
Here are II suggestions from the
National Association for Mental
Health on how to deal with your
tensions:
• Talk it out.
When something worries you, don't
bottle it up. Confide your worry to
Some level-headed person you can
trust—your husband or wife, father
or mother, a good friend, your
clergyman, your family doctor, a
teacher, school counselor or dean.
Talking things out helps to relieve
your strain, helps you to see your
worry in a clearer light and often
helps you to see what you can do
about it.
El Escape for awhile.
Sometimes when things go wrong it
helps to escape from the painful
problem for awhile: to lose yourself in
a movie or a book or a game, or to
take a brief trip for a change of
scene.
Mak n ng yvirselt -stand there and
suffer - is a lorm of self -punishment.
not a way to soke a problem. But be
prepared to come back and deal
with your difficulty when you ere
more composed.
a Work off your anger.
If you tool like lashing out at someone
who has provoked you. try holding
off that impulse for awhile. Lot it wait
until tomorrow
Meanwhile, do something
constructive with your print -UP
energy. Pitch into some physical
activity like gardening cleaning out
the garage carpentry or some other
de-it-yourself project. Or work it out
in tennis or a long walk.
€ Give in occasionally.
If you find yourself getting into
frequent quarrels with people, and
feeling obstinate and defiant,
remember that that's the way
frustrated children behave.
Even if you're dead right, it's easier
on your system to give in once in a
while. If you yield, you'll usually fincl
that others will. too.
'411 Do something for others.
If you feel yourself worrying about
yourself oil the time, try doing
something for somebody else. You'll
find this will take the steam out of
your worries and—even better —
give you a fine feeling of having done
well.
€ Take one thing at a time.
For people under tension, an
ordinary work load can sometimes
seem unbeatable. When that
happens, remember that it's a tem-
porary condition and you can
work your way out of it.
The surest way to do this is to
take a few of the most urgent
tasks and pitch into them, one at a
time, setting aside all of the rest
for the time being. Once you dis-
pose of these you'll see that the
remainder Is not such a horrible
mess after all.
Shun the Superman urge.
Some people expect too much
from theniselves, and gel into a
constant state of worry because
they think they are not achieving
as much as they should.
No one can be perfect in every-
thing. Decide which things you do
well, then put your major effort
Into these. They mire apt to be the
thins you like to do, and hence
those that glee you the most saes-
faction.
• Go easy with your criticism.

whom we are trying ro fit into a
preconceived pattern—perhaps
even trying to make over to six
ourselves. Instead of being critical
about the other person's behavior,
search out the good points and
help him to develop them.
• Give the other fellow a break.
When people are under emotional
tension, they often feel that they
have to "get there first"—to edge
out the othef person. no matter if
the goal is as trivial as getting
ahead on the highway. If enough
of us feel that way—and many of
us do—then everything becomes a

success of a quality circle program.
this can result in better decisions and
actions for them and the organization.
Circles can be of significant value in
increasing morale, enriching jobs, in-
creasing quality and productivity, mo-
tivating people, and tapping employee's
unused knowledge. Quality circles are not panaceas for
solving all of an organization's produc-
tivity problems. Also, the form and
structure of a program does not neces-
sarily have to follow a textbook ex-
ample, but can be adapted to fulfill
a local government's particular needs.
Especially for smaller local govern-
