The property was assessed as follows: Lateral sewer and water / *-' 3 RECs @ $3,702.00 = $11,106.00 7;) D Trunks (5 acres minus 10%) fir' @ $1,300.00 = $5,850.00 " a r . 'otal-----44.6,9 A field inspection of the property indicates that it would be feasible to rezone and divide the parcel into at least three lots, each having frontage on 768th St. and utilizing the sewer and water stubs provided. The poor soil conditions referred to in the attached soils report by BRW would not, in our opinion, unduly interfere with building on these lots. It is our recommendation in this matter to leave the lateral assessments as originally levied, but to reduce the trunk assessment by 40% because of possible poor soils on some portions of the property, as described in said soils report. CJJ:kh Attachment. • to ,....:. . . ._.._...__.mow Eden Prairie Council September 24, 1976 Eden Prairie, Minn. Members of the Council: Margee and I own five acres of property east of 168th Ave W. in the Coach Light Manor development area in Eden Pairie. We purchased this property in the spring of 1964 at a price of $7,000. At that time it was our thought that we might someday build a home on the property. As is frequently the case, plans change and roughly five years aco we reached a decision that we would not build on the property and, therefore, would attempt to sell it. After trying unsucccssf;:lly to sell the property ourselves, we enlisted the help Of a realtor. He was finally able to obtain one offer for us from a developer. The offer was contingent on the sight being acceptable for development. To make this determination, the developer had soil samples taken on our property and the five acre site adjacent to ours on the south side. The soil samples were taken by Bather, Ringrose, and Wolsfeld, Inc. (BRW) of Edina. I have a copy of their report attached, the summary statement of which reads as follows: "It is our conclusion and our recommendation that you not purchase either of these two parcels for the purpose of single family home construction. The cost involved in correcting the soil problems that would be encountered would be prohibitive." Though mid 1973 we invested another $2,500 in taxes and assessments against the property. When we received the above mentioned soils report in August 1973, we became discouraged and have paid no taxes or assessments against the property since that time and do not intend to do so in the future. Cecntryride Realty has a client interested in purchasing the site for construction of a home. I feel it would be advantageous to all parties - .nrludiaa Loden Prairie to reduce the assessments against the property so that this transaction can be completed. Thank you for your time and your consideration. Sincerely, 6 7440-v-t Thomas G.

The purpose of this investigation was to determine the feasibility of using these sites for the construction of single family housing in a conventional subdivision. The soil investigation was carried out in the following manner. A tractor back-hoe was rented on an hourly basis by Mr. Carl Peterson of our staff. He together with a back-hoe operator made a number of test hole excavations on each site and visually classified and recorded the soils encountered. We have in our office and in our files the records of those particular test excavations and I will not relate the details of those records herein. However, if you should care to examine there they are of course here for your use. We generalized the results and the ct,nelusians which we reached relative to the utilisation of these sites for • conventional housing are as follows. Parcel no.1225 consists of a substantial low depression in which extensive organic or peat type materials were found. The excavation in the center of the depression went to a depth of twelve feet and was still encountering brown fibrous material. The test excavations on the higher ground indicated substantially better material but insufficient quantity to begin to even consider the reclaiming of the low area through mass grading and corrective procedures. In summary I would estimate that 80% of the parcel consists of undesirable soil conditions primarily due to the extensive deposits of peat and organic material. • 0AL•C N ewonOR.WOt Si EI D iliC 7101 VOHK AVC.Nut SOUTH ENNA MMNf SOYA 55,415 774ONC 61240143 .4 el. _ Vs ato 4, , 4 • • sit%4 L 445 I , I 4 3 \r• . 2 7,2 t 01:i•— low••v4 :r . 4 ,,,...

Any home construction which occurs on this site would require substantial additional expense in the foundation construction either in the form of extensive excavation and backfilling or in the form of extra depth foundation as required to place the footings on proper supportive soil. Parcel no. 1235 indicated ground water in the area which would be encountered in the foundation and utility construction. Also a substantial layer of soft ground clay was encountered to . a depth of six feet. It is questionable whether or not this particular clay could be utilized for the support of residential type structures. That determination would depend upon a detailed laboratory test but my initial reaction is that I would not assume that buildings could be placed directly on that material . +Ba_sed__Q.u_ the test holes excavated and the general contour of the land_T w estinnate at Least O mf the site has this condition a n d e s sj h._ i t._1.i...certaittly:_n.a.t_.__, desirable for single family home construction and one_whj,ch . also would require very'""subct fr T extra costs in order to construct-s-Ingle far:Irv" homnc It is our conclusion and our recommendation that you not purchase either of these two parcels for the purpose of single family home construction.

Sincerely, TMrs. Arth+ir J. Rogers) c 17109 Dack Lake Trail 43$4.137 Eden Prairie. Dot. 55347 William Y. Kucher Sr. 16609 !Nest 62nd Street Eden Prairie. MN. 55343 mr 30Vf • MEMO TO: Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission FROM: Marty Jessen, Director of Community Services r SUBJECT: The Kucher and Deaver Properties ✓ DATE: May14, 1976 At the last meeting we discussed the status of our discussions with Minnetonka with regard to these properties. At that meeting the Commission requested that I bring forward to you for your consideration a specific proposal and recommendation for your consideration. • THE DEAVER PROPERTY When Shelter proposed to the City "Eden Farms" development approximately 60 acres of this parcel was to be committed to the City's ownership for public open space. This included the Purgatory Creek Valley and the high hill to the north of the creek. Subsequent to that time we identified a l5 to 20 acre neighborhood playground site1to the north of the creek and Just east of the hill,which was included in the 1975 Capital Improvement Program and Bond Issue Proposal. The result and affect is that approximately 75 to 80 acres of this site has been identified as desireable public open space, or approximately 50% of the total land area. The possibility of acquiring the entire site has been suggested. A potential use for this site would be a municipal golf course. Otherwise, there is in my opinion, no need for the City to acquire the entire 151 acres. One of the negative aspects of considering it for a municipal golf site is the fact that it is high value property and has an extremely high amount of assessment for sewer and water service against it. I would anticipate that we can continue to expect that the floodplain and creek valley area will be dedicated to the City at the time of development of this property. The l5 to 20 acre playground site will have to be acquired through purchase. There is a possibility that parts of hill area may be lost • to development in a subsequent development proposal. Because I believe the l5 to 20 acre playground site will have to be purchased • I would suggest that the following be considered: 1. The City secure an option to acquire the property which extends, say until July 1, 1977 or approximately a one year option. 2. A four year contract for deed will result at that time, and if the option is exercised,with the contract for deed payments to be made equally over four years 1978, 1979, and 1980. il.• -2- 3. I would suggest that approximately 20 acres be acquired. 4. I am assuming, based on my extimate of values, that this would result in a cost to the City of approximately S80,000 over the four year period. • KUCHER PROPERTY The Kucher property is located approximately one half mile directly west of the Deaver Property that I have suggested that we acquire for neighborhood playground purposes. Ps mentioned before in the report last December a • significant portion of this parcel is identified as conservancy open space • in the Purgatory Study with the remainder of the site being generally open upland fields suitable for active recreation use such as a neighborhood playground site. The Neighborhood Facility Study of 1974 identifies two major neighborhood playground sites in the north and west section of the community. The Deaver Property and one over near Lochanbum on the Edengate site, with the third minor site to occur someplace in between. The upland portion of • • the Kucher Property would work very well for this purpose. Because of the fact that the residual property which would remain should • the City only acquire the upland property for playground purposes is the conservancy zone of the Purgatory Creek Study, I would suggest that instead of severing the property consideration be given to the following proposal: 1. The City acquire all of the Kucher Property with the exception of • the two home sites. 2. 1 am again assuming that the value of this property approximatley • $4,000 per acre which would result in a cost to the City of approximatley $140,000 for the site. 3. I would suggest again that approximately a one year option be secured. 4. The option would result in a contract for deed again running over a four year period with equal payments to be made in 1977 through • 1980. 5. I would suggest that the Watershed District be requested to part- icipate in a ,cooperative project in financing this site, particularly that part which is included within the Purgatory Creek Open Space Study Conservancy Zone. SUM MARY" � If the two proposals herein made were to be adopted the costs to the City would be as follows: Parcel Land Costs Assessments Deaver Property $80,000 $22,000 plus or minus Deaver (Purgatory ' Dedication $50,000 plus or minus Open Space) Kucher Property $190,000 • $45,000 plus or minus • • • h / September 15, 1976 TO: Lt. Keith Wall FROM: Al Larson SUBJECT: 3.2 Beer License Application; S. Spellings Restaurant, E. P. Center This memo is in regards to the city council's directive to consult with the Eden Prairie Center Merchants' Association as to their approval or disapproval of a 3.2 beer license at S. Snellings. I spoke with Jim Grossman, President of the Merchants' Association, and he stated that the primary function of the association is to promote and to advertise, not approve or disapprove beer licenses. He referred me to Joe Sahli, Center Manager. Mr. Sahli was consulted and stated that he would attend the next council meeting and voice his opinion on behalf of Homart Development. • • AL:dh tEtr .n R�ra ( It{r "if�t�Gsl1 DIRECTOR OF P '1 a PUBLIC SAFETY ` 1 R EMERGENCY POLICE AND FIRE • 7905 MITCHELL RD. / EDEN PRAIRIE, MINN. 55343 (612)544.9511 PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICE September 16, 1976 (612)944.2700 TO: Joe Sahli, Manager Eden Prairie Center FROM; Al Larson • Public Safety Officer SUBJECT: S.Snelling 3.2 License As previously mentioned, the city council meeting will be held 9-28-76, to discuss the possibility of S. Snelling, Eden Prairie Center obtaining a 3.2 license. At this time, I do not know the time of the meeting nor the place on the agenda. This information can be obtained from City Hall by phone on Monday, September 27, 1976. Phone: 941-2262. September 13, 1976 TO: Lt. Keith Wall FROM: Al Larson•"X n Public Safety Officer • SUBJECT: 3.2 Beer License Applications for S. Snellings (Eden Prairie Center) and Jakes Pizza and Ice Cream Parlour (Co. Rd. 4 and State Hwy. 5) The following steps were taken in investigating the above 3.2 beer license applications: 1. I spoke with Mrs. Sam Snelling (co-owner of S. Snellings Restaurants) and requested that she draft a letter stating what rules and regulations the restaurant would have regarding the serving of 3.2 beer, what would be done to keep beer from leaving the restaurant, . and what type of crowd would be catered to. See attached for response. 2. I spoke with Lyle Olson (owner of Jakes Pizza and Ice Cream Parlour). He was asked to draft a letter in response to the same questions as S. Snellings. In addition to this, he was asked how his restaurant would handle problems with off-sale beer. See attached for response. 3. Ridgedale, Southdale, Rosedale, Brookdale and Maplewood Mall Shopping Centers were contacted and asked if any of their stores currently had 3.2 beer or liquor licenses. At preseht, none do. However, Ridgedale will possibly have one restaurant with a liquor license in the near future. 4. Minnetonka, Richfield, St. Louis Park and Edina Police Departments were contacted to see if their cities had any smaller shopping centers with stores having on-sale 3.2 liquor licenses. If they had any such establishments, they were asked to comment on problems encountered with serving to minors or consumption off the premises. A) Detective Coudron from Minnetonka Police Department stated he didn't feel that 3.2 beer establishments had posed any problems from the police department's standpoint. -2- • B) Edina.Police Department didn't recall any problems with restaurants that served 3.2 beer. Jakes Pizza has a restaurant in Edina with a 3.2 beer license and Edina Police haven't had any problems with it. C) Lt. Langren from St. Louis Park Police Department reports no problems with any of their restaurants that serve 3.2 beer. D) At Richfield Police I spoke with Paul Linee. He stated they don't have any particular problems with 3.2 beer establishments. This is partly due to the fact that Richfield doesn't have very many such establishments. 5. Miscellaneous A) When I spoke with Mrs. Snelling, she appeared to be concerned that the restaurant not attract the type of crowd that would only be drinking beer. She and her husband originally thought of serving popcorn at tables but abandoned the idea thinking this measure would not attract only those who might want beer with a meal. • B) Mr. Olson said he currently has a Jakes Pizza Parlour in Edina which serves 3.2 beer, so he is aware of the potential problems that could be encountered and knows how to deal with them. He actively takes part in supervising the selling of beer in his restaurant and his brother (co-owner, Glen Olson) is a lieutenant for Golden Valley Police, so they want no problems. A younger brother who lives in the area will also be checking the restaurant to see that no problems arise. The physical layout of the restaurant is an "L" shape with the ice cream section facing the inner mall and the pizza section facing the street or parking lot. No beer will be served in the ice cream section. C) One problem that could be forseen at Jakes Pizza and Ice Cream Parlour might be the consumption of off-sale beer in the mall area or parking lot of the shopping mall. On-sale beer at S. Snellings will be in glasses only, so drinking outside the restaurant will not appear to pose a problem. • AL:sr S S ENTERPRISES INC. 6500 BARRIE ROAD, EDINA, MINNESOTA 55435 612 - 920-5135 September 11, 1976 Eden Prairie Public Safety 7905 Michell Road Eden Prairie, Minnesota 55343 Attention: Mr. Al Larson Dear Mr. Larson, This letter is being written to clarify some points in regard to my application for an On Sale 3.2 beer license for S. Snelling's, 1019 Eden Prairie Center, Eden Prairie, MN. If we are in doubt of someone's age, the manager in charge will be required to check that person's ID to verify the person's age to make sure the person is old enough to be served. It is our understanding that 19 years old is now the correct earliest age someone can be served alcoholic beverages in the state of Minnesota. As we are appling for an On Sale 3.2 beer license only, we realize that under no circumstance is beer ever to leave the premises. The manager in charge will be aware of this rule and will strongly enforce same. As a customer at Eden Prairie Center I would not like to see people drinking beer, walking through the Center. 1e anticipate serving 3.2 beer to our customers who come in primarily for food service. Under no cir- cumstance do we want to promote beer service as our major product. Thank you for your consideration and time. Yours truly, S. Snelling's Samuel B.

The City can levy taxes for collection in 1977 outside of the levy limits pending legislative action authorizing it. 2. The City can levy outside the limits to comply with a "written Lawful Order" of the Commissioner of Agriculture. 3. There is no provision for a "mandatory referendum" to levy outside . the limits for tree disease control purposes. The City Council could call for an "advisory referendum" but would not be legally bound by the outcome. In addition, any change in State Laws requiring performance may create "ill will" if the referendum outcome were negative. F,. ):. I.

It is my belief that the resolution of this and associated problems can be accelerated if representatives of affected local governments, other public and private interests and the Metro- politan Council begin working more closely together. Accordingly, I am inviting you and a number of other public officials and private citizens to a meeting in the Metropolitan Council chambers at 9 a.m. September 20. • The purpose of the meeting will be'to discuss the organization of a step-by-step process whereby the Minnesota River crossing problem can be addressed, and through which development and other concerns are also considered. It is my hope that participants in the September 20 meeting can function as an unofficial steering committee, at least at the start, and that a more structured task force can be organized in the near future. If you have any questions concerning the meeting, please feel free to give me a call at 291-6452. In my absence, the Council's local planning assistance director, James Barton, will be glad to handle your inquiries. n - ely, ` ' �T�A Eohn Boland hairman JB:nf fi September 24, 1976 • STATE OF MINNESOTA CITY OF EDEN PRAIRIE COUNTY OF HENNEPIN The following accounts were audited and allowed as follows: 09-10-76 2448 VOID OUT CHECK (69.20) 2521 POSTMASTER Postage for voter registration and utility bills 372.22 • 2522 POSTMASTER Postage for newsletter and recreation and community education 269.58 2523 PUBLIC EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT Employee withheld and employer ASSOC. contributions 9-3 payroll 4,060.52 .' 2524 UNITED WAY Donations withheld 9-3 payroll 25.46 2525 INTERNATIONAL UNION OF OPERA- TING ENGINEERS Dues withheld for September 76.00 2526 FEDERAL RESERVE BANK Taxes withheld 9-3 payroll 4,155.57 2527 POSTMASTER Postage for meter 1,00D.00 09-17-76 2528 INSTY-PRINTS Services-Public Safety dept. 9.20 09-20-76 2529 ART MILLER Land option for land purchase at Mitchell Lake 5,00D.00 2530 STATE OF MINNESOTA Sales tax report for August 1,188.12 2531 METROPOLITAN WASTE CONTROL COMMISSION Reserve charge report for August 13,167.00 09-23-76 2532 ROGER ULSTAD Advance conference expenses 310.00 09-24-76 2533 AMERICAN NATIONAL BANK Bond payment 10D,544.48 2534 ALCOHOL COUNTERMEASURE SYSTEMS Breath tester mouth pieces r 62 83 2535 ALBINSON Supplies-Engineering dept.fr 502.25 2536 WILLIA.M BYE September services 60.00 2537 BRAUN ENGINEERING Services-Red Rock 2nd and Preserve Area F Div. 647.75 2538 CUTLER-MAGNER CO.
