ject area and what. has been proposed.

ment and Dennis Doyle of Welsh who reviewed Welsh's interest in the project.
Planning Director roger noted the request was for Pi ll) Concept Approval
on the overall site; PUD District review and rezoning from C-Regional to
Office for the Wilson Learning site; and C-Regional to Industrial on the
parcel Fronting the area alm .!g 1H169. Fuger said three plans had been
developed lel' this area. Vorionces will be requested. The Planning Com-
mission reviewed this request at its meetings on February 13, February 27,
and March 12, 1984. At its meeting on February 27th the Commission voted
to recr.:Im.:.nd the oeneral requests subject to the recommendations included
in the Staff PeporLs. At its meetinu on March 12th, the Commission voted
to rec=mend the balance of the requi ,ts, again subject to the recommenda-
tions included in the Staff Reports dated February 10 and February 24,
1984 (revised.)

at its mcJing on March 19, 1984, at which time it voted to recommend approve
subject to the recNmndations included in the Planning Staff Reports and
the Supplentau Stdff Report dated March 16, 1984, and subject to the
inclusion of A trail easer:ent to be dedicated above the 890' contour on
the north side of the Creek,
Bentley asked if Site 4 is to be designated for office use, Fnger said it
was. Redpath said he did not like the word "industrial" and asked if the
proponent agreed with the recorqmendation that this be 80'f.• office. Doyle
said PO: of the overall usage in this area would be office; this site,
thwy would request, would he 502 office. Bentley said the m,ijor concern
expressed throughout tIic. discussion of this property has been the use of
warehco., facilities on tbi ,. site. He noted this is a unique project in
a on -kph' area; this area has fairly intense industrial use. Inger said
he fell. office use ww -, the highest. and best use in the area south of Volley

City Council Minutes -4- April 3, 1984
There has discussion as to what exactly h'as included in the request
Heir the ttnincil. This was reviewed by Eiger and the specific sites
and proposals were delineated on a map.
Daniel Filblom, 3520 Fremont Avenue South, said be had grown up on the
proporty adjacent to the proposal. He said he felt the joint venture
.proposai was a good one.
Tangen asked about Ow lighting of the buildings and the parking lots.
Darrell Anderi,on !,aid the lighting concept is for cut-off lighting so
glare and liOits can be contained.
Councilman Anderson asked if there would be many trees removed when
the road is constructed through the property. Enger said there would
be but it was a trade off, He explained the alternatives and indicated
what is proposed seems to be preferable in how it related to the property.
He said the character of the site will he preserved.
Councilnni Anderson asked about the crossing over the creek. Enger said
details of that had not been worked out Yet. Dietz said the original
plan called for a culvert.
Bentley asked what was proposed for the northeastern site and noted that
is a tricky site which sits alone. He stated that many corporate headquartc
have a large percentage of warehouse or industrial use and asked if the City
might he able to have a 7011i0g designation which would provide for a higher
percent HO of office use. Unger said that is a possibility, Bentley said
he thought the standard range was between 402. and office; he wondered
if it Ws better to designate office use with additional warehousing capa-
bilities or to designate a set guideline with minimums and maximums suggest
Unger said the disparity is in the difference between 502 and 100::: office
use.
Rodlyth suggested the Council let site "D" ride for now. Doyle said he
nould ii a to have a decision on "D" so he would he able to talk to cor-
porate perwle about this site as a corporate headquarters site -- this
would only lm pcssible with concept approval. Bentley asked if it were
pos n ,Me to give Pill) ceneopt aprroval and not Cuide . Plan change approval.
City Aitorney Pouly said the Couucil cm give PUO concept approval alone;
particularly in light of the action taken try the Planning Cowision.

MEMO TO: Mayor and members of the Council
Page Two - April 26, 1984
As you are aware, two members of the Council were not present
at the hearing on April 17, 1984. Because of that fact I have sug-
gested that the minutes of the hearing be prepared in draft form
for distribution to the members of the Council for review particu-
larly by those members who were not present at the hearing on
April 17. The staff is also notifying the landowners that they
will have the opportunity at the continued hearing on May 1, 1984,
to offer such evidence and make such comments concerning the pro-
posal as they wish. By following this procedure, all members of
the Council, including those who were not present for the hearing
on April 17, except those who may otherwise wish to disqualify
themselves, may in my opinion participate in voting on the matter.

Dear Mr. Dietz,
Pursuant to our meeting on April 23, 1984, I have reviewed
your feasibility report for utility improvements in the area
west of Old Shady Oak Road and north of Rowland Road,
Improvement Contract 52-059A dated March, 1984.
I concur with the preliminary assessment role based upon the
improvements outlined in your document.
While I understand the difficulty of the citizens accepting
trunk assessments it is unquestionably true as stated in
your report that the property is benefited by such
improvement.
It should be further pointed out that if this improvement
were not to move ahead that the alternative sewer and water
improvement serving the area could be substantially more
expensive to any one of the property owners.
Although there were three people at the public hearing who
voiced a concern on the assessments, I do not find that
unusual in view of the fact that there are approximately ten
people who would be subject to an assessment.
Accordingly, I do not think it is appropriate that the
Carmel Addition pick up any additional assessments as an
effort to appease those people who have voiced a concern
about their assessment. Thank you.

RESOLUTION APPROVING THE PRELIMINARY PLAT OF O'NEILL OFFICE BUILDING FOR
JACK BOSS & PARTNERS
BE IT RESOLVED, by the Eden Prairie City Council as follows:
That the preliminary plat of O'Neill Office Building for Jack Boss & Partners.
dated February 22, 1984, consisting of 1.70 acres for an office building, a
copy of which is on file at the City Hall, is found to be in conformance with th

provisions of the Eden Prairie Zoning and Platting ordinances, and amendments
thereto, and is herein approved.

B. O'NEILL OFFICE BUILDING. Request for Zoning District Change
from Rural to Office, and Preliminary Plat of 1.70 acres for
an office building. Location: Northeast quadrant of City
West Parkway and County Road #61. A public hearing.
Mr. Len Lampert, architect for the proponent, reviewed the site
characteristics and site plan features with the Commission.
Planner Enger reviewed the recommendations and findings of the Staff
Report of March 23, 1984. He stated that the point of access from
City West Parkway for this site and the hotel site to the north was
shared access at the north boundary line of this project. Planner
Enger stated that it would be necessary for the hotel site to
coordinate with this site in terms of several matters including
grading, driveway access, and shared parking arrangements. Planner
Enger stated that, for example, the driveway lane for the office
building was located 50 feet from the right-of-way of City West
Parkway, while the driveway lane for the hotel was located 35 feet
back from the right-of-way for City Vest Parkway. In order to
provide a smooth joint access situation for shared parking, it would
be necessary for one or the other of the sites to adjust the
driveway lanes to match the other site. This would be necessary to
avoid jogging of the driving lane, which would create a hazardous
driving situation for guests using the office building parking lot
for hotel patronage. If the office building were to relocate it's
driveway lane to match that of the hotel, there would be a loss of
approximately nine to ten parking spaces for the office site in this
location. The spaces could possibly be made up in another portion
of the site.
Torjesen asked Staff to review three uses which had been approved
for that area along the east side of City West Parkway in terms of
their intensity and consistency with the overall Planned Unit
Development. Staff reviewed the three uses, Primetech, the City
West Convention Hotel, and the O'Neill Office Building site in terms
of their floor area ratios, traffic, and consistency with the
Planned Unit Development. Staff pointed out that, in their opinion,
these uses were all consistent with those approved in the original
Planned Unit Development.
Torjesen stated that he felt it would be appropriate to require that
Planning Commission Minutes 5 March 26, 1984
the parking to be shared by the three facilities be coordinated by
the individual proponents.
Marhula asked if the adjacent sites had been platted at this time.
Mr. Scott Anderson, Anderson Development, Inc., explained the
various ownerships within the vicinity.
Mr. Anderson stated that they intended to work with Staff to
coordinate the parking situations between Primetech, the hotel, and
the O'Neill Office Building.
Marhula questioned whether it would be appropriate to deal with a
preliminary plat for the office building, if it became necessary to
add land to the hotel site in order that adequate parking be
available for the hotel site. Planner Enger pointed out that
alternatives were still available, other than adding land to the
site, for mitigation of the hotel parking problems.
Hallett stated that he felt this site for the office building should
be dealt with based upon it's own merits, and not be based on review
of another site.
Chairman Bearman asked for comments and questions from members of
the audience. There were none.
Torjesen asked how much flexibility was available to the Staff for
dealing with the parking situation for the office building itself,
with respect to the realignment of the driveways required for the
joint access situation with the hotel. Staff stated that if the
change was insignificant, such as three to five spaces, they would
be able to deal with situation at a Staff level. If not, Staff
would ask the proponent to return to the Planning Commission for
review.
Marhula asked Staff to explain the condition in the Staff Report
regarding Shady Oak Road assessments. Planner Enger responded that,
based upon the study done for feasibility of upgrading of Shady Oak
Road, it had been determined that the sites within the City West
Planned Unit Development would all benefit from the upgrading of
Shady Oak Road. Therefore, it had been Council's decision that, at
such time as it became necessary to upgrade Shady Oak Road, the
assessments would be spread to all benefitting properties, which
would include those within the City West Planned Unit Development.
MOTION 1:
Motion was made by Marhula, seconded by Johannes, to close the
public hearing.

materials dated March 5, 1984, subject to the recommendations of the

1984, subject to the recomnendations of the Staff Report dated March
23, 1984.
Motion carried--6-0-0
O'Neill Office Building 2 March 16, 1984
the construction of a three-story office building, totalling 30,400 sq. ft., with
152 parking stalls provided on-site, 96 of which would be at-grade, and 56 of which
would be enclosed in a two-level parking area under the building. The proponent
will be seeking a variance to permit a 49 ft. high building and a front yard setback
variance to 18 ft. along Highway #169.
Existing Site Characteristics
The site is gently rolling, with a high point in the south-central portion of the
property around existing 24- and 36-inch oak trees, which are proposed to be saved
as part of the landscape plan. The site slopes generally to the west and to the
east from this high point. There is a significant amount of existing natural
vegetation, which consists primarily of elms and cottonwoods. These trees will be
removed as part of the overall development plan.
Site Plan
The proponent is seeking the front yard variance along Highway #169 from 35 ft. to
18 ft. in order to preserve two existing oak trees of 24 inches and 36 inches in
diameter. The request for variance may be reasonable considering the east property
line of this site is set back at a distance between 76 ft. and 94 ft. from the ramp
to Shady Oak Road from south-bound Highway #169.
Access to this site will be a right-in, right-out off of City West Parkway. The
driveway entrance to this site will be a shared driveway with the proposed hotel
convention center site.'
Architecture
The three-story office building will be constructed of primarily medium to dark
brown face-brick, with bronze tinted glass. The parking element of the building is
proposed to be of a lighter colored face-brick, or stone. There is a retaining wall
along the south side of the access drive into the structured parking area, which is
approximately eight feet in height at the building, which rises gradually to meet
grade towards the driveway access into the site. Staff recommends that this
retaining wall be architecturally compatible with materials proposed for the
exterior facing of the building and/or structured parking area. There are overhead
doors to the structured parking area at the northwest and south sides of the
buildings. These doors should be of an appropriate material and color compatible
with the overall scheme of materials for the office building. The southern overhead
door will be visible from County Road #61. Screening should be intensified in this
location. The proponent should provide a sight line showing the effectiveness of
the screening in this location.
Landscaping
A landscape plan has been submitted which depicts the arrangement and type of plant
materials. A key feature of this landscape plan is the preservation of existing 24-
inch and 36-inch diameter oak trees near the southwest corner of the building. The
proponent shoo id provide details which explain how these trees will be protected
during the cooqruction process. The parking area is recessed somewhat from City
West Parkway and County Road 161, which partially screens parking around the
perimeter of the site. However, elevations of the parking areas near the building
are at, or above, the grade around the site perimeter. These parking areas will be
.611L,
O'Neill Office Building 3 March 16, 1984
visible from public roads. Staff recommends that additional berming_and landscaping
be provided around the site perimeter adjacent to City West Parkway and County Road
#61. The applicant should provide sight lines from both of these roads showing the
effectiveness of proposed screening. The size of plant materials should reflect a
2-1/2 inch caliper minimum, 2-3/4 inch caliper average for shade trees, and a six
foot minimum height for coniferous trees.
Storm Water Run-off
The grading plan indicates that the majority of the storm water run-off is directed
towards three catch basins in the proposed parking areas. Some of the water run-off
will be directed towards a catch basin in the landscaped area along the north side
of the building. Staff recommends that this catch basin be located at the low point
of the driveway adjacent to the lower level entrance to the structured parking area.
Water from all catch basins will be directed towards highway right-of-way. The
proponent should submit grading plans to the Highway Department for review and
obtain any necessary permits.
Signage
The proponent intends to construct two signs on the site. One would be a five-foot
high ground mounted sign located ten feet off of the west property line near the
driveway access to the site. The ground mounted sign is proposed to be of medium to
dark brown brick masonry unit construction, with raised metal letters. The
proponent should submit detailed plans for the wall sign. The other sign would be a
wall sign on the easatern side of the building facing Highway #169. Lettering of
the wall and ground signs should be of a similar style.
Pedestrian Systems
There is an existing concrete sidewalk within City right-of-way along the east side
of City West Parkway. There should be a pedestrian linkage between the office
parking areas and pedestrian systems on the hotel site. This could occur along the
east side of the common driveway entrance between the hotel and office site.
lighting
Light pole and bollard locations have been identified on the site plan. The
proponent should submit details of these lights for review.
RECOIVENDATIONS:
Staff would recommend approval of the zoning district change from Rural to Office,
and preliminary plat of 1.70 acres subject to the following:
1. Prior to Council review, revise the landscape plan to provide an adequate
amount of plantings and berming to effectively screen parking areas and
overhead doors from public view, revise the size of plant materials to
reflect a 2-1/2 inch caliper minimum, 2-3/4 inch caliper average, for shade
trees, and a six foot minimum height for coniferous trees. Also, provide
details for protection of the 24-inch and 36-inch oak trees during the
construction.

C. LEE_DATA_EXPANS1OM, by Opus Corporation/Lee Data. Request
for Planned Unit Development District, Zoning and Site Plan
Amendment to add 72,000 sq. ft. of Office use to existing
Lee Data building. Location: Southeast quadrant of W. 70th
Street and Flying Cloud Drive. .11 public hearing.
Mr. Bob Worthington, Director of Planning and Governmental Affairs
of Opus Corporation, reviewed the history of the Lee Data project,
as well as the plans for expansion proposed for the use. Mr. John
McKenzie, Opus Corporation, reviewed the site characteristics and
elevations of the proposed expansion plan for Lee Data.
Planner Enger reviewed the findings and recommendations of the Staff
Report dated March 23, 1934. He pointed out that, while the
original plan had shown the building nestled between a northeasterly
and southwesterly knoll, it had been the intention of the proponent
to remove a portion of the northeast knoll for the extension of W.
70th Street to provide access for the north portion of the site in
the future at the time of expansion. This would eliminate
approximately one-half of the knoll at the northeast corner of the
site.
Hallett asked how much of the building was being used at this time.
Mr. Worthington responded that approximately 90-95Z of the building
was currently in use. He pointed out that approximately 80 parking
spaces of those currently provided for the site were not in use.
Mr. Worthington stated that, based on their information regarding
large buildings of this type, omployito toile numbers of people,
there was a time at which the building parking needs hecame less as
employeas began carpooling and using other moans of mass
transportation. This, in his opinion, explained the 80 vacant
spaces on tlso site currently. Planner Enger stated that, while this
may be tiue, Staff preferred that the proponent shwa proof of
parking ev„1113htlity on the site, should it be needed in the future.
Planning Counission Minutes
7 March 26, 1984
Torjesen asked why a Planned Unit Development Concept Amendment was
necessary for this site. Planner Enger stated that the original
Planned Unit Development did not show a 72,000 square foot office
addition. Therefore, it was necessary for Lee Data to appear before
the Commission and the Council for review of this expansion as
proposed and that it would be required to be an amendment to the
original Planned Unit Development Concept.
Torjesen stated that he felt a berm, as proposed in the northeast
corner of the site, which would replace a portion of the existing
knoll, would appear artificial. He questioned the need for removal
of half of the knoll. He stated that area for proof of parking had
been shown on an adjacent lot which, while under the current
ownership of Lee Data, was, in his opinion, inappropriate. Torjesen
stated that he felt the Lee Data plans for expansion should be
shown, which would include the entire parcel to the north, as well
as the land on which the current building was located. He stated
that by showing only a portion of the expansion at this time,
knowing that there would be need for expansion in the future, Lee
Data was taking a piecemeal planning approach. He asked whether an
overall plan was available at this time. Staff responded that an
overall plan had been shown to the Staff, but had not been available
for distribution to the Planning Commission.
Mr. Worthington stated that in the original Planned Unit
Development, W. 70th Street had been shown in the location which
would require elimination of half of the knoll at the northeast
corner of the site. He stated that this was consistent with the
approval of the overall plan in 1982.
Torjesen stated that he felt it was important for the Planning
Commission to understand the plans for future expansion of the Lee
Data site. He stated that he felt approving the plans for expansion
on a piece by piece basis was inappropriate, and that he felt, even
if the plans for expansion changed, the Planning Commission would be
able to deal with one solid concept and any changes that may occur
to the solid concept, as opposed to an unknown situation.
Johannes stated that he felt the Commission could act on the project
as presented. He stated that he was not concerned about the removal
of a portion of the knoll at the northeast corner of the site, since
it had already been approved for extension of W. 70th Street by the
original Planned Unit Development. Johannes added that he felt the
recomwndations included in the Staff Report were sufficient to
cover City concerns regarding the extension of W. 70th Street, and
it's possible relocation, as well as requirement for future plans to
show proposed expansion of the Lee Data facility. He stated that he
did not feel it was necessary to see these plans at this time for
the expansion of the 72,000 square foot office building.
Hallett stated that he felt proponents had planned well by purchase
of the Hanson site to the north. He added that while he, too, was
concerned about future plans, he was not concerned about those plans
at this time for purposes of expansion of the current office
Planning Commission Minutes 8 March 26, 1984
—
facility. Hallett asked proponents if the plans for expansion had
been solidified. Mr. Worthington responded that the plans were not
solidified, and in fact, had been changed several times already.
Schuck stated that he agreed with other Commissioners regarding the
lack of necessity of seeing future plans at this time. He stated
that he felt the Commission could act on the expansion plans for the
office portion of the existing facility now, and review future
expansion plans at a time when Lee Data plans were more conclusive.
Chairman Bearman stated that the parking area proposed for the
expansion was at least 900 feet from the main building entrance. He
also expressed concern for the large amount of blacktop which would
be visible from adjacent sites. Chairman Beaman asked proponents
if they had considered structured parking for the site.
Mr. Worthington responded that the plans for the office building
incorporated an additional entrance to the building for better
access to the expansion area of the parking lot. Chairman Bearman
stated that he felt additional landscaping within the existing
parking lot would add greatly to the visual impact of this large
hard-surfaced area. He suggested that parking islands, which would
be landscaped, be added to the site as it existed. Mr. Worthington
responded that he felt Lee Data would be willing to work with the
City in this matter, however, they would not want to compromise
their expansion needs.
Johannes stated that he had agreed with Chairman Bearman regarding
upgrading of the existing blacktop area with landscaping. He also
suggested that, as with other buildings that had been reviewed by
the City, some method of breaking up the long, linear nature of the
building from vision along #169 should be considered.
Mr. McKenzie stated that the proponents were working with Staff to
revise the landscaping plans, particularly in front of the tennis
courts and ballfield, at this time. Mr. McKenzie stated that this
had been a concern of the City in the past and would aid to mitigate
the view of the recreation area and, therefore, the parking area,
from vision along Highway #169.
Torjesen reiterated concern for the lack of an overall plan for
proposed and future expansion of the Lee Data site.
MOTION 1:
Motion was made by Marhula, seconded by Hallett, to close the public

expansion of the office portion of their building by 72,000 sq. ft.,
based on plans dated March 22, 1984, subject to the recommendations
of the Staff Report dated March 23, 1984, with the following added
condition: "Proponents shall provide the City with proof of
ownership for the parcel upon which the future parking is proposed
for the expansion of the office portion of the existing Lee Data
facility and prior to consideration of relocation of W. 70th
Street."
The Commission agreed that, in the Staff review of the landscape
plan, Staff should take into consideration landscaping methods and
materials which would providing for breaking up of the long, linear
nature of the face of the building, and which would break up the
massive nature of the hard-surfaced parking lot. Planting islands
were recommended in the existing parking lot. Staff stated that
they would follow through with these recommendations in review of
the landscape plan.
Motion carried--4-2-0 (Chairman Bearman and Torjesen against)

Background
The Comprehensive Guide Plan identi-
fies an industrial land use for this
site. Surrounding land uses are
primarily industrial to the north
and east of the site, with future
office/industrial uses to the south
on the Wilson Ridge site.
The Planning Commission previously
reviewed the initial building plan
of Lee Data in May, 1932. At that
time, the Commission approved a
request for Planned Unit Development
Concept for industrial and open
space on 36 acres to accommodate a
248,000 sq. ft. office/manufacturing
facility. Approximately 20 acres of
the site was platted and zoned from
RM-2.5 to 1-5 Industrial Park. The
balance of the property was platted
into two outlots, with Outlot A set
aside for recreational purposes,
including a ballfield and tennis
courts, and Outlot B was dedicated
to the public to reserve a natural
area adjacent to Nine Mile Creek.
Right-of-way for the extension of
Flying Cloud Drive and W. 70th
Street was also platted.
Lee Data Expansion 2 March 16, 1984
The existing Lee Data building is located on the eastern third of the site, with
large at-grade parking areas, a ballfield, and tennis courts in front of the
building adjacent to Flying Cloud Drive. Portions of the parking areas are screened
from Flying Cloud Drive and Highway #169 by berming and landscaping. The balance of
the parking areas were expected to be screened with the ballfield and tennis court
fences. This was not effective and additional landscaping is planned. Significant
portions of this site have been left in an undisturbed condition, primarily on the
southern portions of the property. In the northeast corner of the site is an
existing wooded knoll, which rises to an elevation of 885, or 20 ft. above the
adjacent parking area to the west. Vegetation on this knoll consists primarily of
elm, ash, and linden.
Lee Data is proposing a two-story, 72,000 sq. ft. office addition on the north side
of their existing office. The building addition will replace an existing parking
area of approximately 100 parking stalls. Parking stalls will be added to the
existing parking area on the northwest portion of the site, and a new parking lot
will be added to the northeast corner of the site, removing an existing wooded
knoll.
Environmental Assessment Worksheet RAJA.
An EAW is required for new, or expansion of, industrial facilities in excess of
200,000 aq. ft. of gross floor area. The EAW originally done for Michaelangelo
Gardens was appropriate for the traffic, energy, and waste threshholds for the first
Lee Data submission, but we are now beyond that scope. The EAW has been prepared,
and will be distributed to the appropriate agencies for review and comment. Staff
expects that the major impact of the proposed building expansion will be relative to
traffic impacts of approximately 2,700 ADT. In 1980, the EAW prepared for
Michaelangelo Gardens for 272 housing units, identified 1,700 ADT. There was a
finding of no significance determined for the original EAW.
Traffic Impacts
Staff anticipates that the Lee Data total building will generate approximately 2,700
ADT with the majority of traffic utilizing Flying Cloud Drive to Highway #169.
Some of the traffic will utilize W. 70th Street to Shady Oak Road and Highway #169.
Traffic impacts from the proposed Wilson Ridge project are expected to be
approximately 4,000 to 5,000 ADT. To accomodate the anticipated traffic, Flying
Cloud Drive should be extended from its present terminus to the south property line
to connect with the alignment of Flying Cloud Drive proposed by Wilson Ridge. W.
70th Street should also be considered for extension from its present terminus on the
eastern border of the Lee Data site to Flying Cloud Drive. Signalization of the
intersection of Shady Oak Road and Flying Cloud Drive and is expected this Fall.
The developer's agreement between Lee Data and the City, dated July 29, 1982,
indicates that by September, 1985, or sooner, if required by transportation demands
within tie area as determined by the City Engineer, Flying Cloud Drive should be
extended from its present terminus at the northwest corner of the site to the
proporty's southern mast property line adjacent to Thorn Creek (now Wilson Ridge).
In addition, at the time to be determined by the City Engineer, the owner shall
construct W. 70th Street from its present terminns at the northeast boundary of the
site, westerly to Flying Cloud Drive, or agree to assume assessments for road
construction as approved through the City's special assessment hearing process.
Lee Data Expansion 3 March 16, 1984
Parking
Total parking requirements for a 320,000 sq. ft. office/manufacturing facility would
be 1,127 spaces. The proponent is providing 967 actual parking spaces on this site,
with proof of parking provided for 160 vehicles on the adjacent property currently
under Lee Data's ownership.
The proposed additional parking area will encroach into the 35 ft. road easement
previously dedicated to the City for future extension of W. 70th Street. To
accomuodate parking within the road right-of-way along the northern property line
requires that the City vacate this easement. The proponent has indicated a revised
conceptual alignment for W. 70th Street. The proponent should provide soils
information along the proposed right-of-way for evaluation by the City in order to
determine if this alignment is feasible.
The proof of parking area located on the adjacent property is not included as part
of the Planned Unit Development submittal. Before this parking area can be
constructed, the proponent should submit development plans identifying grading,
landscaping, and access for review by the Planning Commission.
Storm Water Run-off
Storm water run-off will flow northeasterly across the proposed east parking lot to
a catch basin which is connected to an existing storm sewer system in W. 70th
Street. Water run-off from the western parking lot will sheet drain towards two
catch basins in the southwest corner of the parking aria.
LandscaLina
Plantings along the northern edge of the existing wester parking area will be
removed to accommodate future parking expansion. Existing berming and plantings
along Flying Cloud Drive will be maintained. A berm is proposed between the the
west and east parking lots. The height of the berm is at elevation 880, or
approximately 12 ft. in height. The height of this berm should be increased to 16
ft. and heavily landscaped with large deciduous and coniferous plantings. Staff
recommends that the proponent provide a landscape plan, which illustrates proposed
plantings along the northern property line and on the berm separating the parking
areas.
The overall size of plant materials proposed should be a 2-1/2 inch diameter
minimum, with a 2-3/4 inch diameter average for shade trees. Coniferous trees
should be no less than six feet in height. Plantings on the proposed berm should be
between four- and six-inch diameter for shade trees and eight to twelve feet high
for coniferous trees.
Staff is currently working with Opus to provide a more effective screening of the
tennis court: and ballfield areas from Highway #169. Staff recommends that the
proposed landl.cape plan include provision for berming and plantings of coniferous
trees of at least eight feet in height in front of the tennis court and ballfield
area.

Dear Mr. Enger:
We are in receipt of the above referenced plat for our review in accordance with
Minnesota Statutes 505.02 and 505.03 Plats and Surveys. We find the plat
acceptable for further development with consideration of the following comments:
- The developer has discussed access to TO 101 wah members of my staff.
Specific requirements for turn and by-pass lanes will be incorporated into
the required entrance permits.
We are assuming that no direct access to TO 101 will be required for any of
the proposed lots. Every effort should he made to limit direct access to
TB 101 so as to avoid a situation such as the one that exists south of
Duck Lake Trail.
- Additional right of way for TO 101 should be provided as a part of this
plat for future use.
If you have any questions in regard to this revie ,,, please contact Evan Green at

1. Development Proposals
a. Hidden Glen II
Refer to memo dated April 11, 1984 from
Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services and
Staff report dated April 6, 1984 from
Michael Franzen, Senior Planner.
Lambert stated that Hidden Glen II was first
brought to this Commission last summer. It is
located in the northwest part of the city.
Dick Ferrick and Richard Bloom were present to
give a breif history of the development and to
explain the present plans.
Perrick stated that Hidden Glen received its
initial concept approval from the City last year.
Bloom presented the present plans. He stated that
Hidden Glen II has received initial plat approval
from the Planning Commission. The plans now
include taking the first phase of 64 lots and
adding 31 lots to that. The first phase of
development would then include 95 lots and would
include grading for the park as per the plan.
There has been discussion with the Planning
Commission regarding sidewalks, bikeways, the
park area, and the construction of Dell Road.
There has been a request for an additional
sidewalk along street C, beleiving that the area
would experience a fair amount of development
activity. Bloom stated that out of the 20 acre
parcel only 3 to 4 acres are developable. The
rest is floodplain area. Bloom said that
Derrick Land Company does not expect a lot of
additional units to be built in that area.
Bloom did ask for that requirement to be waived.
Bloom also said that he feels there is a fairly
extensive pedestrian and bikeway system currently
invisioned.
Forrick and Bloom tried to clarify the plans for
Commission members. They showed on their plans
exactly where streets, sidewalks, and bikeways
will be.
Kilvroy commented that he did feel there would
be a lot of pedestrian, bicycle, and auto traffic
on Dell Road.

Kingrey also stated that the City should share
the cost of the bituminus trail along the west
side of proposed Dell Road. Lambert stated that
could be a possibility. Jessen commented that the
City is getting a lot of park frontage from this
project and agreed that the City should share
the cost of the trail.
MOTION: Kingrey moved to recommend approval of
nairen Glen II as per the Staff Report with the
following amendments:
1. The City should not require a sidewalk on
C Street.
2. The City should participate in the construction
of the bituminus bicycle trail on the south
and west side of Dell Road in this phase of
development. It should be to the extent that
the proponent would grade and create an
acceptable to staff bicycle path base and the
City would lay the surface.
3. Outlot B should be dedicated to the city in
the third phase of development.
Breitenstein seconded the motion and it carried
unanimously.

for Zoning District Change from Rural and R1-22 to R1-13.5
and R1-9.5 for 56.09 acres and Preliminary Plat of 56.09
acres for 73 single family lots and two outlots. Location:

Mr. Richard Bloom, Vice President of Planning of Derrick Lan

Company, reviewed the site in relation to the approved Planned Un
i
t
Planning Commission Minutes 2 April 9, 1984
Development for the 104-acre site. The current proposal included 56
acres of the overall site. Mr. Bloom stated that adjustments would
be made in order that all lot sizes would comply with the R1-13.5
zoning requirements. Mr. Bloom explained that there was still a
minor difficulty with the Dolesji driveway access situation, which
would be resolved prior to review of the project by the Council.
The Dolesji homestead was proposed to remain and become a part of
the new Hidden Glen subdivision. Mr. Bloom added that proponents
were working with the Minnesota Department of Transportation
regarding access from Highway t101 and turn lanes required for
proper safety. Mr. Bloom also stated that proponents were working
with City Staff regarding final details for Dell Road.
Planner Enger reviewed the findings and recommendations of the Staff
Report regarding this project.
Hallett asked if there would be a sidewalk or bikeway along Highway
1101. Planner Enger responded there would not be, but that the
bikeway or walkway function would be handled along a parallel route
using Dell Road.
Torjeson asked if development of Phase I and Phase II of the Hidden
Glen project was dependent upon the construction of Dell Road.
Planner Enger responded that this was Staff's recommendation.
Mr. Bloom stated that an assessment agreement had not been finalized
for Phase I of the Hidden Glen at this time. He stated that with
Phase I there had been consideration for the new owners of lots
within the project aiding in the assessment payments for Dell Road.
Financing for the project had been dependent upon the participation
of future owners. Mr. Bloom stated that part of the problem had
arisen, also, due to the fact that the grading for Phase I of the
project did not balance to the satisfaction of the proponents.
Therefore, it had been proponents decision to proceed with the
planning of Phase II in order that grading for both phases could be
done and balanced at the same time.
Mr. Bloom also stated that proponents questioned the need for an
eight-foot wide bike path along Dell Road since there was no
continuation of the bike path south of their project along Dell
Road. Staff explained that in the future, there would be a bike
path along Dell Road south of the Hidden Glen property, but that it
had not been built at this time.
Chairman Beaman asked if the Engineering Department was satisfied
with the proposed align ..nent of Dell Road. Planner Enger stated that
Planning Staff had discussed this with the Engineering Department,
and that the Lngineering Department had stated that they were
prepared to accept this alignment of Dell Road as it appeared to
work well for the Hidden Glen project.
Torjeson asked Oat the minimum lot frontage was for the R1-13.5
lots. Staff responded that the minimum frontage was 70 feet.
Planning Commission Minutes 3 April 9, 1984
Hallett asked if there would be a trail of any sort along Townline
Road along the north edge of the project. Planner Enger responded
that the City had not planned such a path; however, the County would
likely treat this trail as they did the trail along County Road #4.
(Marhula arrived at 7:50 p.m.)
Chairman asked for comments and questions from members of the
audience. There were none.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission
THRU: Carl Jul lie, City Manager
FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services
DATE: April 11, 1984
SUBJECT: Supplementary Staff Report to the Planning Staff Report of April
6, 1984 Regarding Hidden Glen Phase II
In 1983, the City Council approved the Hidden Glen Development Proposal subject to
agreement on paying for the construction of Dell Road and for acquisition of the
proposed park.
The City Council then authorized an appraisal of the park site. The appraisal was
prepared by John Janski and Associates and submitted on July 14, 1983. The appraisal
determined that 8.2 acres of highland had a value of $7,500 per acre and the 4.2
acres of lowland had a value of approximately $2,000 per acre for a total value of
$69,900 for 12.4 acres.
In the final design of the plat and alignment of Dell Road, the proposed park size
was reduced to approximately 11.4 acres.
Based on the price the property owner had received for the first portion of the site and
for the options that he has on the remaining protion of the site, he felt strongly
that the 8.2 acres of high property was worth between $9,000 and $10,000 per acre.
The City agreed to purchase 8.2 acres for a price of $80,000. This price included
$10,000 worth of grading on the park site. The property owner agreed to dedicate
to the City free of charge the remaining 3.2 acres of lowland.
On Tuesday, August 16, 1983, the City Council approved the purchase agreement for the
terms described and required that prior to entering into the purchase agreement, the
seller must provide the City with a legal description of the 8.2 acre site and a
warranty deed for the remaining 3.2 acres of park and the marshland on the north side
of the future Dell Road.
The terms of the purchase agreement were to pay $40,000 down with an interest of 8%
on the balance of the contract. Twenty thousand dollars would be paid the next year
and $20,000 the following year subject to approval of the finished grading of the park.
If $10,000 of grading had not been completed on the park, the $10,000 amount would be
put in 05CrOW until satisfactory completion. Twenty thousand dollars of grading was
to be determined when a minimum of 12,000 cu. yds. of material had been moved according
to the grading plan.
The Community Services staff have several concerns with the proposal:
"C" street appears to he a throiqh street from Dell Road North and east.
This will provide pedestrian access to the neighborhood park from those
future neighborhoods in that direction; therefore, a public sidewalk
Should be provided on the east side of the street.
2. The grading plan for the park appears to follow the proposed grading plan
submitted by the City. Ihis plan provides needed barrow material from
-2-
the park site to the adjacent property. It should be noted that all to
p
soil removed from the park must be replaced on the park.
3.. Outlot B is depicted as private open space. The developer had previ
o
u
s
l
y
indicated that this would be dedicated for public open space along wit
h
the lowland on the west side of Dell Road. Outlot B abuts public open
space that is located to the south and east.
As soon as the City has the legal description to the park that is being
p
u
r
c
h
a
s
e
d
and the warranty deed for the lowland area, the City will enter into a c
o
n
t
r
a
c
t
f
o
r
deed and make the first payment of $40,000.

REOUEST:
Background
The Comprehensive Guide Plan identi-
fies a low density residential land
use for this site for up to 2.5
units per acre. The surrounding
land uses are primarily low density
residential and open space.
This site is part of a four-phase
overall development plan previously
reviewed by the Planning Comnission
in July, 1983, for 245 units on 104
acres of land. Phase I of that
development plan was platted and
rezoned to 01-13.5 ond R1-9.5, with
the largest lots occuring immedi-
ately adjacent to the Lochanburn
neighborhood. The overall develop-
ment plan also included a park of
approximately eleven acres in size
in the southeast corner of the site.
Existing Site Character
The site ranges from a high point of
943.9 in the center of the site to a
low point lying in the southeast
corner of 874. The property slopes
downhill in all directions from this
high point, and is gently rolling,
Hidden Glen Phase II 2 April 6, 1984
except for some steep slopes facing northeasterly in the northeast portion of the
proposed R1-13.5 area northeast of Dell Road. The major vegetation on this site is
limited to low lying areas towards Purgatory Creek and the steep slopes surrounding
it.
Though the property is not affected by the Purgatory Creek flood plain, it does
contain two areas of public waters in the southeast corner of the site and in the
north central portion of the proposed R1-13.5 area northeast of proposed Dell Road.
The property is not affected by the Shoreland Management portion of the Eden Prairie
Code, but about one-third of the eastern portion of the site is within the Purgatory
Creek Conservancy Area.
Site Plan
Development plans for Phase II are consistent with the overall concept plan
previously reviewed by the Planning Commission, in terms of road layout and lotting
arrrangements.
The current request of the proponent is for a rezoning of lots northeast of proposed
Dell Road to R1-13.5, a rezoning of Lots 7-10, Block 2 and Lots 7-12, Block 3 to P1-
13.5, and the balance of the lots to R1-9.5.
The development plans indicate proposed building setbacks in the R1-13.5 zone to be
five and ten feet. Setbacks should be revised to meet Code requirements for ten and
fifteen feet, or a combination of 25 feet for both sides. In addition, Lots 7-10,
Block 2, on the north side of Broadmoore Drive are sub-standard R1-13.5 lots and
should be revised to reflect a minimum of 13,500 sq. ft. per lot.
As a condition of approval for the proposed R1-9.5 zone of Phase I, the proponent
was to provide an overall development plan, which illustrates a variety of unit
types such that no units shall occur adjacent, directly or diagonally across from
any similar unit. In addition, no like unit type, such as garage front, should
occur more than three in a row along any street frontage. The proponent has
provided an overall development plan, but has not keyed specific lots to unit types
at this time. The proponent is not certain whether they will be constructing the
homes or selling lots to a number of different builders. Staff recommends that
prior to the issuance of any building permits for R1-9.5 area in Phase I and Phase
Ii that the proponent provide the development -e lan with specific unit types
identified on a lot specific basis.
Dell Rood
In conformance with the approval of Hidden Glen 1st Addition, Dell Road must be
constructed from its current terminous, northwesterly to connect with Pleasantview
Road at the thy of development of Hidden Glen Phase II. The right-of-way for Dell
Road must be platted t'3A ft. in width. The developer and fee owner must enter into
an assessment agreement for construction of Dell Road prior to release of the final
plot i(n• Hiitt ,o Glen let Addition. The developer must ron5h grade and prepare the
subgrale forP11 Goal , according to Lngineering Department specifications, and will

City would he the aitlitional cost of the difference in width from 32 ft.
Hidden Glen Phase II 3 April 6, 1984
It is likely that plans for development north of this property will allow the
extension of Dell Road north to an intersection with Highway #101 at the same time.
Parks/Pedestrian Systems
The preliminary plat indicates an 11.4 acre park in the southeast corner of the
project. This park will provide a buffering of the development to the single family
areas to the south and provide a more direct connection between the park and major
flood plain areas to the east. The developer has previously agreed to sell
approximately eight acres of park (shown as part of Outlot A) to the City for a cost
not to exceed $70,000. The balance of Outlot A is to be deeded to the City. The
City has been awaiting a legal description of the park property in order to enter
into a contract for deed. The park will not be expected to assume assessment for
public hrprovements.
There should be an eight-foot wide bituminus trail connection along the west side of
proposed Dell Road. In addition, there should be a five-foot wide concrete sidewalk
along the east side of proposed Dell Road.
Five-foot wide concrete sidewalks were required to be constructed along one side of
Pleasantview Road and Broadmoore Drive as part of Phase I. Staff recommends that
the five-foot wide concrete sidewalk be extended along one side of Broadmoore Drive
over to Joseph Curve and connect to the bituminus eight-foot wide pedestrian walkway
along the west side of Dell Road.
Grading and Drainage
Storm water run-off from this site will flow in a northeasterly direction through a
series of catch basins and storm sewer pipes towards Purgatory Creek. The drainage
plan will require approval by the Purgatory Creek Watershed District.
Utilities
The proponent has submitted a preliminary utility plan, which identifies provision
of sewer and water service into the project area by connection to an existing eight-
inch sanitary sewer line along the eastern border of the site, an extension of a
six-inch water line along Dell Road, and connection to a twelve-inch water line
within the Dellwood Addition.
landscaping
As a condition of approval for Phase I, the proponent was required to submit a
landscaping plan to the City prior to building permit issuance for Phase I, which
provides adequate noise -abatement from Highway 101 for lots directly adjacent to
Hiehway 101. The proponent has not submitted the landscape plan for Staff review at
this time.
RECONMENDATIONS
Staff would receemend approval of the request of rezoning from Rural and R1-22 to
RI-9.5 and di Id. I for 56.09 acres end preliminary plaL of 56.09 acres into 78
single family lots and two oialuts, subject to the following:
Prior to Council review, proponent shall modify the preliminary plat to
, ,
Hidden Glen Phase II 4 April 6, 1984
reflect 13,500 sq. ft. minimum lot sizes for Lots 7-10, Block 3 along the
north side of Broadmoore Drive. In addition, side yard setbacks in the
proposed R1-13.5 zone should be modified to reflect current code
requirements of ten feet on one side and twenty-five feet for both sides.
2. Prior to building permit issuance, for lots in Phase I and Phase II, the
developer shall submit a development plan, which illustrates a 'variety of
unit type such that no unit type shall occur adjacent, directly, or
diagonally across from any similar unit. In addition, no like unit type,
such that garage front, should occur more than three in a row along any
street.
3. Prior to building permit issuance, for Phase I and Phase II the developer
should submit a landscape plan which provides adequate noise abatement from
Highway 101 for lots directly adjacent to Highway 101 for review.
4. Prior to construction of Phase I and Phase II the City and developer must
enter into an agreement for sale of the park property. Prior to building
permit issuance, the proponent should submit erosion control plans to the
Riley-Purgatory Creek Watershed District for review.
5. Prior to final plat of Hidden Glen 1st Addition, the developer and fee owner
must enter into an assessment agreement with the City for equivalent cost of
construction of Dell Road as a 32 ft. wide, nine-ton road with a five-foot
wide concrete sidewalk on one side and an eight-foot wide bituminous bike
trail on the other side. Developer must rough grade the road bed to City
specifications.
6. Prior to building permit issuance, proponent shall construct a five-foot
wide concrete sidewalk along the northeast side of proposed Dell Road and an
eight-foot wide bituminous bike trail along the south side of proposed Dell
Road. In addition, proponent shall extend a five-foot wide concrete
sidewalk along one side of Broadmoore Drive to Joseph Curve and connect to
the eight-foot wide bituminous surface along Dell Road.
7. Submit detailed storm sewer, sanitary sewer, watermain, and erosion control
plans for review by the City Engineer.
8. Pay the appropriate Cash Park Fee at time of building permit issuance.
9. All graded portions of the site must be restored prior to October 1 of the
year in which the area is graded according to Watershed District
requirements.

C. MIN-TEX. Request for Zoning and Site Plan Amendment for
18.07 acres for two (2) office/warehouse structures in 1-2
Park Zoning District. Location: W. 70th Street, west of
Shady Oak Road. A public hearing.
Mr. Bernie Frye, representing proponents, reviewed the overall
development plan for the area within the former Shady Oak Industrial
Park 6th Addition. He also reviewed the site characteristics,
elevations, ponding area, and building materials proposed for this
site. Mr. Frye stated that Outlot A had originally been planned as
a storm water retention area, but that after discussions with Staff,
it had been decided that they would try to develop Outlot A as more
of an amenity for the employees of the area, as well as an area to
fulfill the purpose of storm water retention. Their proposal was to
use it as a passive recreation area, to include picnic tables,
walking paths, etc. Mr. Frye pointed out that this alteration to
the plan would have to be reviewed by the Watershed District and
other agencies, due to the size of the storm water retention pond.
Planner Franzen reviewed the findings and recommendations of the
Staff Report.
Chairman Bearman asked for comments and questions from members of
the audience. There were none.

buildings totalling 110,400 sq. ft.
Background
The Comprehensive Guide Plan identi-
fies an industrial land use for this
site and surrounding land uses.
North of this site are large scale
office/walehouse industrial build-
ings. Last of this site, across the
ponoling area, is an undeveloped
piece of property, which EN-TEX
plans to develop for another
office/warehouse building. South of
this site is Braun's corporate head-
quarters and undoveloped land area
under Braun's ownership. Immedi-
ately west of this site is Lee Data.
The Planning Commission has reviewed
several developwnt proposals for
this property over the last several
years, beginning with an overall
developonl plan for Shady Oak 5th
Addition by Andc.rwn Ddvelopment,
Inc-, which includ,A a concopt plan
for four 60,000 sq. ft. offke/ware-
house buildinqs on this 20-acre
site. At that tire, the property
was re7oliod to Park with a
prelinlinry plat fro one indestrial
lot and ::yn hit lots. The Planning

business park, involving five office/warehouse buildings. Site plan approval was
granted for Phase I, with Phase II requiring approval by the Planning Commission and
Council.
The proponent is submitting detailed site and building plans at this time for the
approval of Phase II, which includes two office/warehouse buildings of 54,000 and
56,400 sq. ft. respectively.
Existing Site Conditions
The site is relatively level, previously graded at the time of approval of the Shady
Oak 5th Industrial Park. Buildings for Phase I are currently under construction on
the northern half of the property. There is a significant natural earth mound that
runs along the entire length of the western portion of the site. The property drops
significantly from the southern portion of the site on the adjacent Braun property.
There is no existing significant natural vegetation on this site.
Site Plan
Two industrial office/warehouse buildings are planned for the southern portion of
the property. Access to this site is from W. 70th Street, with a future driveway
access to Shady Oak Road planned as part of Phase III and Phase IV of the MN-TEX
Business Campus.
The office portions of Buildings D and E face each other with employee parking
centrally located and separate from semi-truck traffic, which will circulate around
the perimeter of both buildings. Loading facilities to the west of Building D will
not be visible from W. 70th Street due to location of buildings and berming as part
of Phase I. Loading facilities to the east of Building E will be visible from Shady
Oak Road until Building F is completed as part of Phase III.
Code currently permits up to a 0.30 floor area ratio. The site plan indicates a
floor area ratio of 0.29. To accommodate building development at this high ratio
requires the construction of retaining walls along the western and southern portions
of the property.
Parking __—
Total parking requirements for 110,400 sq. ft. of office/warehouse building would
require the provision of 304 parking stalls. The site plan indicates parking
provided for 303 stalls.
Architecture
The proponent intends to construct buildings similar in layout and architectural
design to Phase I. The facades will be tip-up, insulated, white pre-cast concrete
panels, with insulated glass and rod brick accent areas. Pre-finished metal panels,
watching window/door traos, will provide rooftop screening for the HVAC units.
Considering the lono, linear, and flat appearance of these buildings, Staff suggests
that the pcnud,oml nc exterior elevations of the office portions of the
building, to provide nAiof and variety, such as recessing the windows and/or
extendina the will area above, no below, the windows. Staff also suggests that
primary building colors be of a MNINIA to dark brown face brick, with a compatible
MN-TEX Staff Report
3 April 6, 1984
earth tone color for the pre-cast concrete. Staff has discussed this with the
developer and modifications will he made. The proponent should provide brick and
color samples for review. The proponent should also provide details illustrating
the effectiveness of rooftop mechanical screening.
Road Easements
There are two existing road easements at the southwest and southeast corners of the
site. (Refer to Attachment A) These road easements were originally dedicated to
the City at a time when concept plans envisioned roadways to accommodate future high
density residential development. The City Engineering Staff feels that these road
easements are not needed considering future extensions of W. 70th Street to Flying
Cloud Drive and extension of Flying Cloud Drive from its present terminus to Valley
View Road. These road easements and will have to be vacated, since portions of the
buildings encroach into the easements.
Grading and Drainage
Storm water run-off will sheet drain into several catch basins, which are connected
by storm sewer to a pending area in Outlet A. The grading plan shows retaining
walls along the western and southern portions of the property. These retaining
walls will range between 10-17 ft. in height. The proponent should provide plans of
the proposed retaining walls, which indicate type of materials and structural
soundness, for review.
Landscapihg .
The site plan indicates a high percentage of hard surface areas, with minimal green
areas set aside for plantings. Introducing additional green space within the
parking areas would require that the proponent modify building plans or seek
variances from the Board of Appeals. Staff suggests that the ponding area in Outlot
A he used as a natural open area for the business campus. This area could be
landscaped with a variety of shade, flmering, and coniferous trees, and
supplemented with picnic tables to serve as a luncheon area for employees.
Outlet A is a detention pond, with an outlet at the bottom elevation of the pond.
Water will he retained during periods after snow melt and high water run-off after
significant rain falls. Perheps the pond area could he deepened, or the elevation
of the outlet raised, that an appropriate amount of water might be retained. The
shape of the pond log area cen also be modified to show a more natural or curvilinear
shape. Any medification to Outlet A will require approval of the Watershed District
and City Engineer. The developer has discussed the possibility of reshaping and
landscaping of the pund to increase its value as an amenity to the development.
The overall size of plant materials should reflect a 2-3/4 inch average, 2-1/2 inch
minimam, di a meter for shade trees. Shrubs should he a minimum of 24 inches in
height.
Lighting
Plans shew of building mounted lights and pole lighting. The proponent should
provide details of the propen,ed lighting for review.
MN-TEX Staff Report
4 April 6, 1964
Siqnage
The proponent should provide an overall signage plan, with specific sign details for
review.
Utilities
Sewer and water services are available by connection to existing sewer and water
lines in Phase I. The proponent should provide appropriate sewer and water
easements as determined by the City Engineer.
Future Development
The proponent has indicated ultimate plans for Phase III and Phase IV. Development
plans for Phase III and Phase IV will be subject to review by the Planning
Commission and City Council. The proponent will be required to submit detailed
site, grading, landscaping, architectural plans, and other relevant detailed
information for review.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Staff would recommend approval of the zoning and site plan amendment subject to the
following:
1. Approval of the grading and drainage plans by the Watershed District.
2. Payment of the appropriate Cash Park Fee.
3. Notification of the Watershed District and City 48 hours in advance of any
grading.
4. Provision of slope stabilization, sewer, water, and storm drainage plans for
review.
5. Provision of details of retaining walls, including types of materials
proposed and structural soundness.
6. Submission of revised building elevations, which indicate a relief in
building exterior. Submission of brick samples and color schemes for the
pre-cast concrete for review.
7. Submission of a detailed landscape plan identifying plant material by type,
quantity, size, and method of installation for review. .
6. Provision of plans for review by the Fire Marshall.
9. Provision of appropriate sewer and water easements as determined by the City
Engineer.
10. Vacation of road easements in the southwest and southeast corners of the
site.
11. Developmant plans for Phase III and Phase IV will require review and
approval by tho P1amilh9 CM:mission and City Council.

D. EDEN GLEN CENTER, by Urban Associates. Request for Zoning
District Change from Rural to Cowercial Regional Service
for 1.633 acres for 11,000 sq. ft. strip shopping center.
Location: East side of Glen Lane between Singletree Lane
and Eden Road. A public hearing.
Mr. Dave Reimer, Urban Associates, reviewed the site characteristics
and features of the site plan with the Planning Commission.
Planner Franzen reviewed the findings and recommendations of the
Staff Report regarding this project. He pointed out that there was
an existing Development Framework Manual, which had been approved
with the Planned Unit Development for Eden Glen, in 1980. Planner
Franzen stated that this project for Eden Glen Center was in
substantial compliance with the Development Framework Manual
approved in 1980. He also pointed out that there was concern about
the screening rooftop mechanical equipment from view from the
Highway #169 frontage for the project. Mr. Reimer rtated that they
would provide site sections for Staff review to determine the
acceptability of the screening proposed for the rooftop mechanical
on Highway #169.
Commission discussed with Staff the differences in various strip
shopping centers within the community.
Mr. Reimer stated that many of his tenants preferred to be within a
"strip" shopping center due to the visibility provided for their
sites in a situation like this as opposed to that of an enclosed
mall.

Background
The Comprehensive Guide Plan identi-
fies a Regional Counercial land use
for this site and surrounding land
uses. North of this site are two
fast food restaurants--Hardee 's and
Delaria's Chicken. South of this
site is a future bank/office
building. The Sheraton Hotel is
proposed wst of this site, and
Kindercare to the southwest.
Existing Site Conditions
The site is relatively level at an
elevation aplyoxiately 10-12 ft.
below the existing grade of Highway
1169. Tie re is an existing steep
slope loa',1 the eastern border of
the site, at which the elevation

Eden Glen Center 2 April 6, 1984
Development reviewed by the Planning Commission in 1980. The Planned Unit
Development proposed a restaurant use for this site. The approval of the Eden Glen
Planned Unit Hovelopment included a design framework manual which established
guidelines for comon architecture, site planning, landscaping, signage, and
liehting.
The proponent intends to construct a one-story, 11,500 sq. ft. office-retail
building, Coldwell Banker and Pizza Hut Restaurant as the primary tenants. Coldwell
Banker plans to occupy 4,000 sq. ft. of the southern portion of the building and
Pizza Hut plans to occupy the northern 3,000 sq. ft. of building. Uses for the
interior bays are planned for either office or retail uses.
Site Plan
The site plan is consistent with the Eden Glen development framework Manual, with
building orientation towards Highway #169, and with access from Glen Lane. The site
plan shows a continuation of the interior access connections between adjacent sites
at the back portion of the property. The site plan meets building and parking
setbacks, floor area ratio, and height requirements for Community Regional Service
Zoning.
• Park in
The majority of the parking is located on the eastern portion of the site adjacent
to Highway #169. The proponent is providing 73 parking spaces at a ratio of 6.39
spaces per 1,000 sq. ft. of gross floor area. Specific uses have been identified
for portions of the building, and parking requirements can be calculated
accordingly, with 20 parking spaces needed for 4,000 sq. ft. of Coldwell Banker
office space and 33 parking stalls needed for a 100-seat Pizza Hut restaurant.
Parking requiremcints for the balance of the building (3,900 sq. ft.) can vary
between 20-31 parking spaces, depending upon the extent of area planned for office
and retail uses. If the balance of the building is utilized for office purposes,
then the total 73 parking spaces provided would meet Code requirements. Retail uses .
would require a parking variance from the Board of Appeals.
Architecture
The building is proposed to be constructed primarily of a medium dark brown face
brick, wilh a finer -fort ride dark brown brick accent strip around the top portion of
the building. Tine materials are consistent with the design framework manual.
The east elevation show a brick and glass material combination and staggered
buildine front. west. elevation (service entrance) is predominantly brick, with
less relief and tmny service doors, including an eight-foot high overhead door,
which encloses the trash receptaclo. Recessing the service doors and additional
berming 6!:!i l i nt Incas along rJrn lane may provide a more attractive appearance.
Doors should be of a color compatible with medium dark brown brick. Color samples
should tw vovided for review.

Gradip2
Minimal site grading is proposed on this property. Storm water run-off will sheet
drain across the parking lot towards an existing catch basin in Glen Lane. This
catch basin may not be adequate to handle the amount of storm water run-off, and
additional catch basins should be provided on-site as determined by the City
Engineer.
Signs
Proposed signs will be located on the dark brown brick accent band around the
building. Lettering should be of a consistent size and style. Staff recommends
that signage details be provided for review.
Lighting
Two 20 ft. high, two-lamp "Marquette" fixtures are located in the east parking lot.
This type of light is consistent with the the Eden Glen design framework manual.
Pedestrian Systems
The Eden Glen development framework manual identifies a five-foot wide concrete
sidewalk along the east side of Glen Lane. Staff recommends that the site plan be
modified to show this sidewalk.
Landscapina
The landscape plan is consistent with the design framework manual. Berming and
plantings along Glen Lane should be intensified to provide a more effective
screening of the service entrance and parking area from Glen Lane. The proponent
should provide a sight line through this berm to illustrate the effectiveness of the
proposed screening.
Utilities
Sewer and water services are available to this site by connection to existing
sanitary sewer and water mains in Glen Lane.
RECOMFNVIIONS.
Staff recommends approval of the request for re7oning from Rural to Commercial
Regional Service for the Eden Glen Center project, subject to the following:
A. Prior to Council review, proponent shall:
1. Revise the landscape plan to intensify screening of the service
entrance and parking area from Glen Lane and include a sight line
showing the effectiveness of the screening.
2. Modify the sit.e plan to show of a five-foot wide concrete sidewalk
along Glen Lmio.
3. Provide sight sections showing the effectiveness of screening
methods for rooftop r,echmical equipment from Highway #1G9.
Eden Glen Center 4 April 6, 1984
B. Prior to building permit issuance, proponent shall:
1. Pay the appropriate Cash Park Fee.
2. Provide detailed signage plans for review.
3. Receive approval of grading and drainage plans from the Watershed

a Day Care Facility and Preliminary Plat of 17.23 acres into
four lots. Location: Southi ,ast quadrant of Anderson Lakes
Parkway and Highway ,7i169. A public hearing.

proponent, rcvievwd the request and its relationship to the
originally approv,:d Planned Unit Davalopment freia 1W. Mr. Lynch
mated haL th,! twist it: ,tubbed in from the
residential area to the (.a .,t for thi ,, pruperty.
Planning Commission Minutes 4 April 9, 1984
Mr. Jack Vossler, Schoell & Madsen, also representing proponents,
stated that the day care center would be able to handle
approximately 150 students. Staff members for the day care center
would nunber approximately 16.
Planner Franzen reviewed the findings and recommendations of the
Staff Report. Planner Franzen stated that one of the Staff concerns
was that a development framework manual be prepared for the future
uses within the project to maintain consistency within the
development. Also, there was concern that proper screening of the
project from the existing residential neighborhoods to the east and
south be a part of any development of this parcel, including
screening of parking areas and rooftop mechanical equipment.
Mr. Bob Elkan, Woodson Development, explained the reasons why
National Child Care wanted to located in the City of Eden Prairie.
He stated that Eden Prairie, due to its high growth mode, was a
prime location for any day care center at this time.
Hallett asked if it was National Child Care's intention to locate at
a point were two collector streets had an intersection so close to
the project. Mr. Woodson responded this was desirable, due to the
ease of access provided to the site. He added that there were eight
such sites in Minnesota now in similar locations. -
Chairman Dearman asked how day care centers became accredited in the
State of Minnesota. Mr. Woodson responded that the State of
Minnesota Department of Health and Welfare was responsible for the
accreditation.
Johannes asked if the berm would have to be relocated if the future
parking area noted on the site plan was ever required to be built by
the proponents. Planner Franzen responded that it would be
necessary to relocate the berm in that case. He added that this
would especially be true if the building were ever converted to an
office use.
Torjeson asked if the entire site would need to be graded. Mr.
Vossler responded that it \mid he, with the exception of the
southeast slope of the property. Mr. Vossler added that some of the
shrub planted by the adjacent residents, which were actually
located on the National Child Care site, would be removed with the
grading,. saved, and replanted closer to the residential lots. He
added that tleiy would work with neiehbors to relocate the shrubbery.
Mr. Ed Luedtke, 12G20 Crowfoot, questioned the exact location of the
prope .oty. b. Lyndi poiatd out to Mi.. Luedtko the location of the
property in relation to his ilLime.
Va.. Nancy Fur:A, ffd'i3 Porno 11 itofd, expressed concern about the

Planning Commission Minutes 5 April 9, 1984
periods. Planner Engor responded . that the amount of traffic would
be similar to that at Anderson Lakes Parkway and County Road #18.
However, he added that this site would not quite have the difficulty
of traffic that the Anderson Lakes Parkway and County Road #18
intersection did due to the fact that roads were more straight than
curvilinear as was the case at County Road #18 and Anderson Lakes
Parkway. Site visibility would ha much better. Chairman Bearman
asked how much traffic this intersection at Anderson Lakes Parkway
and Highway #169 Was designed to handle. Planner Enger responded
that this intersection was designed to handle 9,000 trips per day.
Planner Enger also pointed out that Anderson Lakes Parkway had not
yet been built to its full width in most locations. If necessary,
and when necessary, Anderson Lakes Parkway would be built to a four-
lane width. Planner Enger stated that the City already had adequate
right-of-way for the widening of Anderson Lakes Parkway.
Ms. Furst stated that she felt the City of Eden Prairie had many day
care centers at this time, and she questioned the need for
additional day care centers of this type. She pointed out that
National Child Care was a national franchise or chain operation,
with headquarters out of the State of Minnesota. She stated that
she felt the City should perhaps consider a different type of day
care center, and perhaps put limits on the various types of day care
centers within the community, to provide enough claoices as were
needed by the residents.
Mr. Mike Juran, 8936 Darnell, asked if the play area of the day care
center would be fenced. Planner Franzen responded that the area
would be fenced; however, Staff had recommended additional berming
outside of the fencing to more completely screen the play area from
the view from the surrounding public roads and existing residents.
Mr. Juran also asked if the development framework manual for the
project area would be finalized prior to development of this
project. Planner Franzen stated that Staff was requiring the
development framework manual to he completed prior to additional
development within the project area.

National Child Care 2 April 6, 1984
The proponent is requesting a preliminary plat of 17.0+ acres for one lot and three
outlets, with a specific rezoning request for Lot 1 from Rural to Neighborhood
Connercial in order to accomodate a day care center of approximately 7,300 sq. ft.
Existing Site Conditions
The western portion of the proposed day care center site is relatively level. Along
the eastern border of the site, adjacent to existing homes in the Lake Eden South
Addition, is an existing berm, which the proponent intends to modify. There are
existing spruce and shrub plantings in the southeast corner of the site and several
four- to six-inches diameter boxelders in the southwest corner of the site.
Site Plan
The preliminary plat indicates a 50 ft. right-of-way for Lake Eden Drive with a 38
ft. road surface. Staff recommends that right-of-way be increased to 60 ft. with a
32 ft. road surface. The increased road right-of-way will require that the building
be relocated a minimum of five feet to the east. The 60 ft. road right-of-way will
also allow adequate room to provide a five-foot wide concrete sidewalk along the
east side of Lake Eden Drive to connect to the existing blacktopped walkway along
Anderson Lakes Parkway. Sidewalks along both sides of Lake Eden Drive were proposed
in the original Planned Unit Development Concept Plan.
There are two driveway access points to this site--the southern access is two-way
and the northern access is one-way. The southern two-way driveway access should be
a minimum of 25 ft. wide and the northern driveway access should be a minimum of 12
ft., not to exceed 20 ft. in width.
Code currently permits floor area ratios up to 0.20 for a one-story building in a
Neighborhood Commercial District. The site plan indicates a floor area ratio of
0.11.
Landscaping
A landscape plan has been submitted, which depicts the size, quantity, and location
of prop,sed plant materials. A berm is proposed on the eastern side of the site to
screen the parking and building from adjacent residential uses. The sight lines
provided by the proponent illustrate the effectiveness of screening, but for another
building in a different location, approximately 150 ft. east of the proposed
gation,i1 Child Care Center building. Staff recommends that the proponent provide
new sight lines from residential units immediately behind the day care center site.
Staff 0-Torts that the proposed berm will have to be increased in height and
suppliTiiented with additional plantings to provide a more effective screening of the
buildin and parking areas.
The site plan indicates that the outdoor play area will he enclosed by a five -foot
hihh (AvHil link fence. Staff recommend ..., that berming be extended along the north
and cast sites of this fence to buffer the play area from Anderson Lakes Parkway.
Si ail that this berm be between three-to-five fent in height and
a(tditiorti shrub

Future Develument
The Comnission previously reviewed a Neighborhood Commercial shopping center Planned
Unit Development for this site. Staff suggests that a design framework manual be
developed to serve as a guideline for the balance of future development on this
site, which would include provisions for common site planning, architecture,
landscaping, screening, walkways, lighting, and signage. This design framework
manual should be prepared and reviewed prior to any rezoning or platting of the
balance of the property.

National Child Care Information from Surrounding Property Owners
Ms. Nancy Furst, one of the residents living in the vicinity of the National Child
proposal, has submitted the attached information for the Council. In Staff's
opinion, the issues raised by Ms. Furst do not affect the zoning and land use
questions involved in this proposal. However, Ms. Furst requested that the Council
receive the information, and we wanted you to have it, in case it was referred to at
the meeting Tuesday evening.
8693 Darnel Road
Eden Prairie, IN
April 26, 1984
Fden Prairie City Council
City Hall
Eden Prairie, Mn. 55344
Dear Council members,
It has come to my attention that Eden Prairie has
several new child care centers and that three new ones
will be built this summer. While it is commendable that
the amount of daycare is increasing in Eden Prairie, it
is not commendable that they are all of the same type,
i.e. franchise, run-for-profit child care. Kinder Care
recently received approval to build a second center here.
Naional Child Care is requesting permission for rezoning
to build. And Learning Tree headquarters informs me that
they will be submitting a proposal soon with hopes of
opening in the fall.
The issues involved in child care go well beyond those
of zoning regulations and will greatly affect the children
and families of our community for many years. In order
that these issues can be fully explored, I request that the
City Council postpone approval of National Child Care and
any other child care proposals until the Human Rights
Commission or other appropriate board can make a study of
community needs and make recommendations about how our
child care needs may be best met. Allowing the child care
market to be dominated by run-for-profit franchises will
not be in 'den Prairie's best interest for three reasons;
They are unlikely to be concerned about our community's
speific child care needs. Overbuilding may threaten many
almady established home daycare businesses. Quality
child care is more likely to occur when there is a mix of
diffrent types of centers in a community. I will discuss
each of these bri(-fly in order to show why we must slow
down thc process of building child care centers until we
underetend our community desires and needs.
The most recent study of Eden Peairie child care needs
that I c o uld find wee completed by the South Hennepin Human
ervicce Council in 1 ,:;81. This report identified deficiencies
ii ahnoeL vt ."yarp et of clei 1 d care cervices in Eden Prairie.
(ere attached section from that report) Therefore, you
are to be commencl in that Ili ire have 1)n crcrat improvements
in m(etinge :onie of the neede which were identified then. We
now 1,=,ve a perelet education program, a program for latch-key
(.1,00 eee e, and three 1r-sre day care c ,nter. The number
of famPy day care providers has grown from 14 to 31.
Ihire a r' t.1 11 iiri;ont neode that arc not being met,
and hove not neeafly been met by frm -lchie c.i.ntern because
lity an 10,,,n r :t ly. o/a , for irHmt rid toddler
carc, partetim.. care, sick child care, off hours care,
and slots for Title XX and sliding fee students. Tables
1 and k doeumnt the need for infant/toddler care in particular.
Table 1 shows the requests for child care by age group
that 'Iden Frairie residents have made to CCIN (a computer
based referral acency) in 1984. The-re were 35 total requests
year-to-date for children under 16 months, and only 25 requests
for all other age groups combined.
Table 2 show that there are many openings for preschoolers
at New Horizons and the new Montessori Center. When Kinder
Care opens in August we will have many more slots. This Table
also shows that 85S of all infant and toddler care is being
done in family day care homes. Therefore, while building more
centers, we should also be concerned that this would not
put family day care providers out of business. Family day
care providers are limited to three children under age 21
and therefore must be able to serve preschoolers as well
in order to survive financially. To summarize my position,
new child care businesses in Eden Prairie must be made accountable
for serving our specific needs.
In addition to run-for-profit centers and family day care
there are many other types of child care services. Every
community should have a broad range of these types so that
consumers have the greatest possible freedom in their choices.
Many of these other options are explored by Ellen Calinsky
and William Hooks in The New Extended Emily: Day Care that Works. .
Some of the options arc non-profit centers, parent cooperative
centers, industry sponsored centers and locally owned, non-franchise
centers. My concern is that we find ways to encourage some
of these othr..r options in Fden Prairie as our neighboring
communities have done. If the current trend continues, we will
have only large franchise operations and family day care--
two extremes.
In addition to these considerations, there is the issue
of the qunlity of care our franchises are offering. While the
quality of any type of care ultimately rest with, the quality
of the persons giving that care, ther is an undeniable fact
that frsnchlso dayesrit ccntcrs run a high risk of being costly
for parents and our in quality. Glickman and Springer in nylia tOrre Cat the rally? ::41.44.1.c that they are vc -ry wary of

Lt.4 cht 4'; a 4-1..r!c 11- from vol-tithi; about Kinder Can:
indicates the type of questions that need to be asked about
the quality of franchise child care. I am also including for
you a page from a University of Minnesota newsletter on
"Components of Quality Child Care." This report notes that
"In cent ,Jrs with more than 60 children, quality declined
even when space and staff quality were high, becoming more
sterile and impersonal as they increase in size. "
I am particularly concerned that National Child Care
be questioned about its intentions here. At the Planning
Commission hearing their representative told us that the
rcason they had decided to locate in Eden Prairie was that
they like to locate in upper middle class cities that are
growing, (ie. they expect to make a good profit). No
reference was made to desiring to serve our families and
children, to our communitys specific needs.
I hope you will agree with me and the South Hennepin
Human Services Council that this is a topic that the Human
Rights Commission should take up before any more building
proposals are approved. The Child Care Workers Alliance,
Suburban Child Care Coalition, Greater Metropolitan Day
Care Association and Eden Prairie family day care providers
would all be willing to help with the process of evaluating
our current needs and finding alternative ways to fill them.
It has come to my attention that our city process prevented
at least one person from building a small center here some
years ago. Perhaps we can change our process so that it
is encouraging rather than discouraging to other types of
child care.
Please postpone approval of National Child Care's
proposal and any other child care centers until a more
thorough study of the situation can be made by the Human
Rights Commission or other appropriate city government group.
Sincerely,
,

COMPONENTS OF .
QUALITY CARE
According to Snow, "The most critical variable in considering the
impAct of day care is quality." Nearly all research which has re-
vealed lir:native effects was conducted in programs of unknown or
romstionable quality, and according to a recent Bermuda study,
cmild e m i a ttendinu better quality day care programs scorecl hi leer un measures of languane, social, and
immtional development. Sin( ti day care effects are likely to vary according to the quality of the proem-
it is important to identify criteria for determining quality in day care.
Group SMe smaller groups were consistently associated with better care. Child/staff ratio was
closely related to group size but the maximum ratio for infants was 4 to 1 (3 to I recommended).
Coreyiver Quolifirolions - staff with training relevant to young children deliver better care with
somewhat superior developmental effects. Effective interpersonal skills, commitment and concern for
children and their families are also important.
Coreviver Continuity - continuity and stability of arrangements is important, particularly for
children from broken familes.
• Doily Provrom curriculum is a critical factor in both center and family day care. In "closed" or
hiuhly structured programs children tend to show less independence, initiative and imagination, but do
better on intellivance and achievement tests. In "open" or less structured programs, children tend to
be inure independent and persistent and do better on tests of creativity, problem solving and inventive-
ness. Most programs are somewhat between the two extremes, "mocierately structured", and are con-
sidered the best of both worlds, with gains in creativity and self esteem as well as cognition and
achievement.
... Physical Environment - arrangement of appropriate equipment and materials in sufficient space in-
fluences interactions. Studies generally show that aggression increases as space decreases, and crowd-
edness contributes to negative behavior, physical and psychological discomfort and less than optimum
development. •
Center Size - size is an important variable, with smaller centers (between 30 and 60 children)
t en dfi,g roThe highest in quality. In centers with more than 60 children, quality declined even when
space and staff quality were high, becoming more sterile and impersonal as they increase in size. An
environment low in density of children with easily accessible resources is considered optimal.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Thouoh research on the effects of day care on children is somewhat
limited, the consistency of results thus far provides a basis for some
practical advice for parents, caregivers and administrators, policy-
makers and researchers.
Envircinment
T a ke axtra precautions in sanitary measures to protect arid mini mice communicable disease but also
help paiiaits under stand that there is an increased risk of exposure in child care situations.
Include in all child care environments the best elements of family day care and center day care. Each
s Emu ld in«irporate planned curriculum as well as a homelike atmosphere with space and equipment ar--
canoed to separate quiet from noisy areas, messy from neat areas, etc.
A variety of materiats that provide a halanc.e of activities in each developmental area is also recommen-
ded, with sufficient quantities to allow choices and avoid unnecessary competition.

RETORT TO THE Cl[IES:
RLCOMENDAiIONS REGARDING CHILD CARE
In the past child care hds not teen widely regarded as a necessary and vital .
social service. this has been the case in the South Hennepin area.
The child care system in South Hennepin needs development, coordination,
and support fr OM the comuunity in order to respond to growing demands for
quality care and to changes in social and economic conditions impacting
fami lies with young chi 1 d ren .
Because of frequent confusion about various types of child care, a brief
definition is in order:
family day care: Child care provided in a family home by a licensed
provider. State guidelines regulate the number of infants, toddlers,
and pre-school age children, including the providers own children,
the total not to exceed six.
Center care: Child care provided in a center setting with licensing by the
State Department of Welfare, or for some types of "schools", by the
Department of Education.
Group family day care: Licensed child care provided in a family home
to up to ten children of various ages. Providers must have special
skills or experience to qualify as a group family provider.
Latch-Key: Before and after school, vacation, and holiday care for
children of school age. May be provided in either a family hone or
center.
Special needs child care: Care that is provided, often through County
reimbursement, to children who have "special needs" such as mental/
physical disabilities, emotional problems, parents who are required
to be in work or training programs, etc.
These recoupendations address issues of:

a You'd have to say that Kinder-Care Learning Centers Inc. is a paragon of corporate success.
With nearly 800 child care centers in 40 states and Canada, it has become by far the largest com-
pany in the industry, with revenues, earnings, and operations all growing like Jack's beanstalk.
The stock market has anointed it a winner. And yet the very briskness and efficiency with which
the Montgomery, Alabama-based company runs its business raise troubling questions. Is this
really the best way for Americans to bring up children? And what kind of adults will the 62,000
children now in Kinder-Care centers turn out to be when the 21st century dawns? continued

Kinder-Care went public. "On Wall Street,-
founder and President Petry .Mendel, 61,
boasts, "we are one of the adorahles."
This adorability comes pat By from the de-
mographic and social changes that have cre-
ated demand for Kinder-Care's services.
Though baby-boomers have small families,
they are entering the parental ranks in
enough force to raise the total number of
preschoolers from 1977's low of 15.6 million
to a projected 19.2 million by 1990. Baby-
boom mothers have thronged into the labor
force: 47% of women who have been mat tied
and who have preschool-age children now
work. vs. 20% in 1960. Meanwhile Giandma
has removed to Leisure City and the lady
next door has taken a full-time job herself.
'ler th at th e rar
Mended, then a Montour:it y real estate de-
e:lope:. scized OCCtftii1.111. "I Saw ITVIISS
told raps operating centers wider Mitten-
dons condition.;,- he says, -The erportimity
was to bring child care not of antiquity, as
McDonald's tint with the hamburger tri 1101i-
:fay Inns did with the motel." The managed:II
challenge was to standardize, rationalize, and
centralize, while ailing a dash of modern
marketing aimed. as Mendel puts it, at "tak-
ing tho' guilt away front the WOrkr.W. mother."
The McDoriald's analogy is pertinent:
indeed, an acidulous commentator once
summed up his views of for-profit child care
chains by branding them "Kentucky Fried
Children." To begin with, a big day-care
chain, like a fast-food one, depends on h i gh
volume. Margins are not exactly astronorni-
cal: 20% average profit for each Kinder-Care
school, adding up to an 11% or 12% pretax
profit for the company once corporate over-
head is figured in. Building volume by getting
centers up and going quickly is NIendef's
forte, honed in the pre-Kinder-Care years
when he put together shopping centers.
To get his new business rolling, Mendel
first relied on a standard deal whereby a local
investor would buy the land, pay for con-
$157 million in the last two years. The com-
pany now buy:, rather than leases its herd and
buildines. at $250,000 to $350.000 a center.
These trestle in growing. high-density subur-
ban tracts studded with three-bedroom
houses, complete with two-car garages, that
cost $50,000 itt Valdosta. Georgia, and
$125,000 in San Diego.
The young marrieds who settle there and
send their children to Kinder-Care are typi-
cally college-educatc:d couples whose com-
bined salaries total 628,000 a year. "It's not
Rosin the Riveter that we get." Mendel
points out. But supporting the American
dream doesn't leave these couples much fi-
nancial leeway, "For the pleasure of living
there." says Jack A. Hanchrow, Kinder-
Care's real estate vice president, "every-
body's going to work." Hence the need for
affordable child care—a need even more
acute for the 25% of Kinder-Care parents
whose American dream has ended in divorce.
To serve this clientele profitably, Kinder-
Care must keep its own costs as lean as Oli-
ver Twist. Though its fees are usually among
the highest in town, the upper limit is low.
Charges for a 55-hour week range from an
average of $49 for 3- to 5-year-olds to $62 for
babies 6 weeks through 2 years old, who are
a quarter of Kinder-Care's population. Par-
ents of children from 6 to 12, whom Kinder-
Care picks up from school and takes care of
until Mommy or Daddy comes by to collect
them, pay $28.50 a week. The company's
bulk-buying muscle wins significant sav-
ings—but the key savings come from keep-
ing labor costs low.
VEN IN THIS notoriously ill-paying
industry, it would be hard to pay less
than Kinder-Care. A teacher, induct-
ing one with a B.A. and teaching ct•rtif-

Why du the tear hors 1i° It? e seems
to be a seat- riexhaus Mee supply of people
who like to woi'x with children." says Vice
President Hanehrow. ''I ' in satisfied it's like
the Mai Ine Cm -- the' e 'r; tI «trtain number
of people who'd pay liggiev to do it." This is
hype' bole, but it colitains an important grain
of truth; the intuit:Ale pet soul: ewards do
count. For those set on teaching children,
the public school employment crunch may
make Kinder-Care the only job available. For
those already in public school jobs, Kinder
Care offers a chance to shake olf govern-
ment bureaucracy, or to work net flexible
part-time schedules. or to keep a new baby in
the center with them.
F COURSE, no one works in a
Kinder -Care for pure love of chil-
\se/ jelren, and the bad pay and steady
corporate pressure on labor costs
wear employees down. A sore point is the
continual adjustment of working hours to en-
rollment: when students are out sick or on
vacation with their parents, an employee ex-
pecting to work 40 hours a week may sud-
denly have only 35, finding herself excused
for an unpaid hour in the middle of the next
fivc days while the children nap. Resentment
seems the usual lesportse. "The center
Coked so beautiful on the outside to the pub -
lic,'' says the ex-direct or from the Midwest,
but sometimes inside the employees were
just seething."
In a sense the company 's financial success
makes matters worse, "If you know every-
body 's getting paid lousy, that's fine." the ex-
director says. "But when you hear they
;nark millions in pt out, that kind of frosts
you." The result is massive employee turn-
over, a bane of the whole industry. The corn-
pany keeps no exact statistics on turnover
but says It's no higher than in other for-profit
child care operations. •
A McDonald 's burger is basically the same
no matter how the girl who serves it to you
feels, and Kinder-Care tries to standardize
its product too, so that the Kinder -Care ex-
perience will as far as possible De indepen-
dent of the person who administers it. Hence
the emphasis on a uniform and generally ex-
cellent physical plant—a red bell tower hung
with a fiberglass school bell; clean, open
classrooms: kiddie-size plumbing fixtures;
and rock-solid playground equipment. The
decor is cheerful, the blocks and wooden
puzzles a pleasure to handle, the trikes the
best you ever saw. Some centers have swim-
ming pools, some home computers with to;
level software—these are the only video
screens allowed in Kinder -Care. First-time
vtsitors can 't fail tube impressed.
A similar effort at standardization has also
molded the educational program that Kinder-
Care boasts makes it far more than a baby-
sitting service, giving your kid a bigger boos:
toward school than you might be able to pre
vide yourself. Every month the latest install-
ment of the Goal Program arrives at eac%
center. A set of week-by-week brochures,
contains suggested daily activities for the
to 5-year-olds relating to the prescrtbee .1
weekly theme. George Washington got one
week in centers from coast to coast, flags es I
another. On paper it seems a solid if not oe
spired program. And as an Alabama assis tire:
director says, "If you have never taught, you
can do it with this."
The problem with all this is that while cm
activities program and a nifty building lack,-
late good care, they aren 't good care ie.
themselves. Most experts on early chilcihocd
believe that for children, care is a persorre
transaction with an individual care-giver, no:
Er,
a product that a succession of strangers can
dish out. It matters therefore whether the
teachers feel angry and exploited, and it mat-
ters whether they quit just when they 've
learned how to do their job or when the chil-
dren hive le;:rned to trust them.
A look at two Connecticut centers graph-
ically shows how unstandardizable the
Kindor-Care experience really is and how the
people, not the prole :ITO, make the differ-
l7COO. In Danbury, order and harmony pre-

This i s n't to say that :ill is perfection in the
Danbury center, vastly better though Iris. A
circle of 2 year-olds hearing a story their ie-
fleet,. an aspect of what's disquieting in the
whole enterprise. Apparently uncomfot table
with books, an inexpet reseed teacher reads
woodenly, seeming not to know that the
book's language and ideas, such as they are,
are beyond a 2-year-old's understanding. "It
is vital that children be read high-quality, age-
appropriate material with expression, feel-
ing, energy, and intelligence," says Richard
Ruopp, president of the Bank Street College
of Education, a highly regarded New York
graduate school for teachers. The Danbury
teacher expects the children to pay close at-
tention, calling them back when their eyes
start rosining. Child development profes-
sionals hdlieve that 2-year-olds cart pay at-
tention and sit quietly in a group for only so
long. To force them to do so past their limit
may inculcate passivity.
SK ANY OF THE THREE consci-
entious women in the Danbury in-
fant and toddler room if they think
t's a good idea to put very young
babies in a center all day and you'll get art
earful. "I think they should be 1 year old-
minimum—before they come here," says
one passionately. "They all know that
Mommy's not around; they know that we're
someone else." The women worry that
they're not able to give the babies the hold-
ing and attention they deserve.
"You've got two hands, so you can hold
one," as the ex-chrector in the Midwest says.
"and two feet so you can occupy one on tile

Among espy rts on child development,
worry over the effects of day cite focuses on
children under 3. The fear ,,Muftg opponents
of group cave for very stead vinldren is that it
will deprive babies of the bonding to a single
person that psychologists believe produces
an emotionally responsive pet son with a
strong sense of identity. Those who believe
that group care can lie sffiliciently nurturing
stress the importance of having few children
per adult, trained care-givers who stay the
course, and close partnership between the
care-giver and the mother.
"What studies have been done," says pe-
diatrician T. Berry Brazekon, whose books
have made him this generation's Dr. Synch,
"have been dune with ideological bias, either
pro or anti." For instance, a study of disad-
vantaged preschoolers that found no ill ef-
fects from day care was done to help pro-
mote programs like Head Start. Moreover,
Brazelion adds, the long-tetm effects on
chew:ter are largely uncharted. "The sys-
tcinanz V:01 k needs to be done." he con.
eludes. Says Harvat d's JCP.,111C K:igatl of
these children, "I think they will be different,
but I can't say how."
r72IOR WORKING MOTHERS of very
young children, the debate is hardly
1 -4 :icademic. Consider their alternatives.
Li Ifs mother is willing and able to stay
hoine at least part-tnne for the three years it
takes to get her child started, many experts
applaud this as the best of all possible ar-
rangements. But the cultural forces that de-
value caring for children, that tie up identity
and a sense of worth with having a career or
at least earning money, often make staying at
home a disquieting choice. As Peter Neu-
bauer, a psychoanalyst who directs New
York's Child Development Center, cautions,
"If you have a mother who is interested in
her self-development and is bored and rest-
less at home, how good a mother will she be?
That children are cared for by the parents
has never meant they are necessarily
healthy." Indeed, the total situation at home
is often not what it used to be: by the time
they are 18, about half of today's children will
have lived in single-parent homes.
If the mother has to work or is going to
wotk anyway, then without doubt Kinder.
Cure is light years better than many of the
squalid warehouses for babies it has re-
placed. Perhaps it doesn't nurture the fullest
emotional development of its pupils, but as
the director of the Danbury center says, "I
don't think these kids are going to grow up to
be Boston Stranglers." Almost certainly
not—but it's hard not to wonder what they
might have become had the world provided
fur them a little differently, a little better.
e Should your company provide child care?
Corning Glass Works, which helps finance a
day-care center, or Campbell Soup Co.,
which has Kinder-Care operate its center,
would say yes. Such companies report that
the centers have made young women em-
ployees easier to attract and keep. Their cen-
ters are close enough for mothers to visit for
nursing or play, mitigating the effect of long
hours of group care. There is reason for
pause, though. By plunging itself into child
care, a company also plunges itself into the
mysteries, psychological and sociological.
that attend this delicate undertaking. II

Additional Signage Request for Factory Outlet Centre
The Factory Outlet Centre has been approved by the City of Eden Prairie under a
Planned Unit Development, which allowed the construction of approximately a 50 ft.
high, 255 sq. ft. free-standing pylon sign in lieu of any additional signing on the
building otherwise allowed by City Code. We now have a request from Factory Outlet
Centre of April 17, 1984, to add building identification at the four canopies above
the major entrances. The signs proposed are very clean and would not detract from
the physical appearance of the building. However, we have a concern about any
future requests for individual tenant signs on the building and protection against
this eventuality. We have met three times with the proponent and had suggested that
they have their legal counsel draft a restrictive covenant, to be filed against the
property with the City as a controlling party to it, which would prohibit any
further signs on the building. In your packet, you will see a proposal for an
amendment to the developer's agreement. This is not what we had discussed, and do
not feel it has as much permanence as a restrictive covenant.
I spoke with Ms. Vera Keller, Vice President of Operations, on Wednesday morning and
identified my concern with their written proposal. Ms. Keller assured me that they
have no problem with providing a restrictive covenant, if that is the Council's
preference.
,The details Of the signs are enclosed with your packet, and are simply
identification signs of the Centre. We have evaluated the size of the proposed
signs and they will be approximately 180 sq. ft., would not project above the roof,
and would he either internally lit, or not lit at all. This size is within the 205
sq. ft. maximum allowed according to their will area.

Community Eduoation Municipal Recreation Duplication
On Tuesday, 14arch 27, 1914, the Eden Prairie City Council considered the option
presented by City staff to 1.rausfer the respon:;ibility of recreation instruction
programs that t .itke place within the school buildings to the school community
education program. The reason the City Council was considering this action was
to possibly el idainate a duplication of service, and save the general tax payer
within the school district and the City some staff expenditures.
The CEty Council direct ed staff to meet with the superintentdent of schools to
discuss the ape: iii c programs that would be transferred, and to determine if
co=nnity education staff could handle this additional work load without extra
cost to the citizens of Eden Prairie, and requested that this item be forwarded
to the School Board for their reaction.
On Monday, April 16, 1984, the Community Education Advisory Council met and dis-
cussed the potential advantages and disadvantages for Eden Prairie residents if
rec.reation instruc.tion programs which are currently offered in school building
facilities, under the supervision of an instructor, or leader were transferred to
the school district's Community Education Department. The list of potential
advantages and disadvantages is attached to this memo This was presented to the
School Board nn Thursday, April 19th.
At I ached to this 11,1m) is an April 21, 1984 letter from Superintendent McCoy out-
lining the School Board reaction to the proposal. The School Board unanimously
approved the propw.cd transfer of those City programs to the school district if
the City in 51:05 to do so.

The Advisory Council recommonded to the School Board that the advantages would

trinsferred to tho school district. Some of the advantages listed were: less
duplication of staff time, streamlinod scheduling of facilities, cost saving for

clorification which woald allow for ompannion of programs that would complement
current ortorings without duplication between the city and school district.

On Thursday, April 5, 1984, the proposed transfer of city recreation instruction
prop,rams was presented to the School I3oard by Jeanne Zetah based upon the infor-
mation that she received in talking with you and Sandy Warts on April 3rd. The
School Board advised her to meet with the Community Education Advisory Council
to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of such a proposed transfer and to
make a recommendation regarding the proposal at the April 19th School Board
meeting.
The Advisory Council had recommended that a Joint Needs Assessment be undertaken
between the Community Education Department rind the City Community Seryices
Department to assess the needs of current %den Prairie residents. The results
of that could help both the school district and the City determine future
program development.
In conclusion, the School Board unanimously approved the proposed transfer of
these city programs to the school district. If you would like a school district
representative to attend a City Council meeting to discuss this further, please
notify me.

the city Transfer of Proorams to the '_4:hool .flfi:Artct
( A the Coamunity Iducation Advisory Council meeting on Hooday, April 16, 1984, the
Advisory Council mers disc oseed the pros and cons reeaHioo the proposed transfer of
s
o
m
e
of the city's programs to the school district's Community Education Department. A lis
t
of these proorams is at all of v:hich are currently held in school building facilities
under the supervision of an instructor Or leader. A letter from Bob Lambert outlining
t
h
e
programs the city would still offer after the proposed transfer was mailed to School B
o
a
r
d
members this week and presented to Advisory Council meuhers at the meeting on April 16
.
Potential Advantages for Eden Prairie residents:
1. There would be less duplication of staff effort.
2. Registration might be simpler for comnmnity members because those activities
happening in a building would generally be registered through the school
district and those happening in city facilities would generally be regis-
tered through the city.
3. There woUld he less confusion over what the school district's Community
Education Department does and Oat the city's Community Services Depart-
ment does.
4. All of the pre-school and family education programs would fall under the
Family Education Center umbrella and could be enhanced.
5. The scheduling of facilities for these programs would be streamlined
' because they would be scheduled irmadiately through the Community Edu-
cation office rather than off a list of city'requests.
' 6. There would be more freedom to offer new things because the clarification
of roles would prevent duplication.
7. Concentrated planning could lead to offering a more well-rounded program.
Rather than worrying about duplication when expanding, programs could be
arranged that would compliment current offerings.
8. Better public relations would be created for the city and school district
by sho,,,ing a mare cooperative relationship.
9. There could to cog saving for the city in transferring these programs
to the Comemoity Education Department. The Cobmunity'Education levy and
the revch,;e• generated Prom fees should Na able to cover any increased staff
time in the Coo ,•mity Education Department.

3. An increase in Community Education Department staff time would require
a tax hike. lioi.lever, the increase in revenues from the transferred
prograus plus some of the Cemunity Education levy money, if needed,
could cover the cost of any increased staff time.
4. Some old programs would be dropped when there still is interest or some
new programs, that don't break even night be cancelled before being given
a chance to ernw. However, those programs that the city offers that are
currently getting good enrollment would he continued and, as with our
own programs, if interest drops, SCP12 programs would be phased out to
allow for growth of new ideas. New classes would be run occasionally
at a loss to encourage new program development.
5. There would be an initial confusion on the part of both city instructors
and participants over how and where to register and who is in control.
We will need advance publicity to educate city residents and instructors
about anticipated changes.
6. Sibling care would need to be expanded in the West Wing of the Admin-
istration building to provide sibling care for recreational programs
as well as for the Family Education Center programs. There would be
a need to look into: the fees currently charged by both parties, the
adult/child ratios that are legally required, the fire codes regarding
placement of the facility, the best locations if it were to grow, and
the fees that would be necessary to break even on an expanded sibling
care. We feel that it is possible to check into all of these conditions
and develop some kind of plan that could be of greater benefit to all the
residents of Eden Prairie, rather than the segregated sibling care offer-
ings that we currently have. -
After much discussion, the Advisory Council agreed that it would be in the best
'interests of the residents of Eden Prairie if the city's programs that have been pro-
posed for transfer to the school district were indeed transferred. The types of programs
that would be transferred have been an integral part of many Community Education Depart-
ments in nearby school districts.
It is felt that it is important for the school district and the city to have a close
working relationship WM and in the future whether these programs are transferred or not.
A joint ngeds assss.wznt would allow both the school district and city staff an opportunity
to learn the need interests of the current Eden Prairie population. It is definitely
important for the school district and city staff mothers to work together in identifying
the needs, working with citizens on possible solutions, and acting as sources of information
for each other. One of tlie oreater missions of Coniunity Education is in comrlinication
and cu(Tdratien with othar awncies and institutions to ic,eet the needs without duplication
an:i the Advitou Cgnntil will work with the Coli ,zunily Education staff to carry that out to
the best ici its cbility.

Given the projected increase in the number of community members enrolled in
programs if the city programs are transferred to the C=funity Educational
Services Department, there way be a need for additional staff time.
ApprcOmately 10 to 20 hours a week may be needed to handle these extra respon-
sibilities if a transfer of programs occur. The Community Educational Services
Department also has other plans to expand the services and programs it provides.

Eden Prairie Horsemen's Request
Attached to this memo is a letter from Curt Cole, vice president of the Eden
Proirie Horsemen, rogarding their club proposal to use airport property for a
riding ring. This proposal was originally submitted to the Parks, Recreation
and Natural Resources Commission in the spring of 1983. In June of 1983, the
Council directed staff to request MAC to approve the use of a portion of their
property for a riding ring. Prior to the Metropolitan Airports Commission
review and approval of this request, the request had to be submitted for approval
by the FAA as well as MnDOT.
The Operations and Environmental Affairs Committee for MAC recommended approval
of the renewal of the lease agreement with the City for Flying Cloud Ballfields
and included a 3-4 acre parcel adjacent to Spring Road for the purpose of a
riding ring. The Metropolitan Airports COMMi!;!,1011 approved this lease agreement
at their April 16th meeting.
The proposal dated March 1984 provides background on the Eden Prairie Horsemen
Club, lists the activities the club participates in, and lists the uses proposed
for the riding ring.
Also, attached to this memo is a map showing the proposed site. The Metropolitan
Airport!: Commission has approved site A for the riding arena.
lhe fellowi.ng list is the estir,ated cost for development of the riding ring:
Initial grading of the arena 7,000 Cu. yds. . $7,000 (contracted rate
7. Ring fence 4x1NLI foot posts f: 3 76 rails 1,730 (materials only)

than on gravel parking lots, and suggested the City not plan on putting in a
gravel parking lot to serve this site.
the club has indicated that approximately 350 horses are kept in the City.
Staff has no record repArding the number of horses that are owned by City
residents, nor is staff aware of the number of people owning horses that have
indicated - they would usci the facilities; however, similar city owned facilities
in neighboring emmunities do seem to get an extensive amount of use.
Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission reviewed this item at their
April 16, 1984 meeting and took the following action:
1101108: Breitenstein moved that the Commission recommend approval of the
Eden Prairie Horsemen's request. The club should work closely with the
City. The club will be responsible for constructing the fencing and all
maintenance. Kingrey seconded the motion and it carried unanimously.
The Commnity Services staff recommend approval of the request with the following
conditions:
1. The City do the grading, seeding, and mowing of the area as necessary.
2. The club provide the materials for the arena and construct the arena,
provide the materials for the perimeter fence and construct the
perimeter fence, and maintain both the perimeter fence and the riding
arena fence.
3. Apparently the materials the club has secured is a fence that has
previously been painted white. Staff would recommend the City require
this white fence to be painted at least every two years, and more
often if necessary to maintain au attractive neat appearing public
facility (staff would recommend that if this fence is not maintained
that the City remove the structure).
4. Stff7 would also recommend the City require the club to obtain liability
insurance naming the City as an insured if the club ever does provide -
a riding lossou program to the public as is indicated in their proposal.
5. Staff would recommend that the City be required to approve the construction
and plans for the ridine arena, and approve any other improvements the
(Au!) might malt: such as iiistallation of bleachers.
