Motion carried unanimously. IV. PUBLIC HEARINGS A. Super Valu Shopping Center at County Road 18/Anderson Lakes Parkway, request to preliminary plat and rezone from aural to C-Commercial, 10 acres located in the southwest qua•rant of Anderson Lakes Parkway and County Road 18 (continued from March 6, 1979) Resolution No. 79-22 and Ordinance No. 79-01 City Manager Ulstad explained the proponents are present to outline the progress, if any, that has occurred since the March 6th Council meeting. City Engineer Jullie stated he has had several conversations with the City of Bloomington's staff and Hennepin County's staff within the last few days, and have looked at different alignments for the proposed intersection improvements. The proponents have engaged an engineer to look at some fairly detailed designs of the various alternatives which were also reviewed with the City of Bloomington. At this point we do not have an agreement with Bloomington as to where the intersection improvements should occur. Jullie further commented that the Hennepin County staff remains non-committal and are requesting the two connunitie (Bloomington and Eden Prairie) to come to a common agreement before they will proceed with the intersection improvements. Jim Benshoo, Traffic Engineer with 8RW, who has been retained by The Preserve, outlined the 4 alternatives as outlined in communication from Bill Bale, legal counsel for The Preserve, dated March 28, 1979. (Letter attached as part of minutes) • y6( Council Minutes - 3 - Tues.,April 3, 1979 -A. Super Valu Shopping Center (continued) Edstrom asked if Bloomington would not cooperate on Alternate #3, would Eden Prairie be left to its own devices. Jullie responded the County could still possibly participate if they determined it was a safety improvement that had to be done without Bloomington's participation, however they haven't come to that • point yet. At the request of Mayor Penzel, Jim Ryan, Ryan Construction Company, displayed graphics of the design of the center with modifications that have been made, Bill Bale, legal counsel for The Preserve, spoke to the effort The Preserve has made to keep people in the area informed, i,e, 1) when they were before the Council on Garrison Forest 2nd Addition, the Council passed a resolution requiring they sign this property as possible non-residential use, and this was done pursuant to their rezoning agreement in an effort to not mislead anybody and to keep everybody fully informed as possible as to the what might happen, 2) The Preserve ran a post card survey to try and feel out opinion in the area which the Council has been advised of, and 31 The Preserve had a public meeting in the Community Center after sending a letter to the residents in the area the middle of last year so that they could come in and make comments with the architect present. Osterholt requested a clear definition of the dollar amounts that have been suggested that the developer is willing to pay for road improvements in the intersection. Bale replied Super Valu is prepared to contribute $70,000 to the interchange and the signing, and The Preserve is prepared to come up with the remaining money necessary to put the signals in that Bloomington is scheduled to pay for. The one major improvement that he has heard needs to be made is lowering of the hill north of the intersection of County Road 18 where the intersection would be, and Mr. Bale stated that is a Hennepin County highway expense that The Preserve is prepared to incur and pay for. Benshoo commented Alternate #3 is exactly the same as the County's plan, the only difference there would be no construction on Ansden Road on the Bloomington side. John Wolcott, 9508 Garrison Way, expressed opposition to the proposal and stated he went down to Hennepin County and researched some of the same things BRW has researched and got a little bit different idea as to what Hennepin County and Bloomington feel are alternatives. Bill Steinbicker, 9152 Neill Lake Road, expressed his opposition to the proposal conmmenting he would like to see the area remain natural or developed as previously planned. Feels Bloomington does have a stake in this and probably should be a part of developing this intersection and widening the road. Mr. Steinbicker also spoke to the fact that Anderson Lakes Parkway is used by many residents of The Preserve for jogging, walking and bicycling. Believes it is essential that some plan be made to provide a bicycling path, walking path, etc., along Anderson Lakes Parkway because as traffic increases it is going to become more dangerous than it is now. Steinbicker also expressed concern about the trail connection on the southern end. Pat Cassidy, 10600 Northmark Drive, and Rita Olson, 9408 Clubhouse Road, spoke in favor of the proposed Super Valu Shopping Center. Joe Duffy, 9440 Clubhouse Road, stated he went out and talked to people in his area to get their ideas and all 40 people he talked to were in favor of the proposal, including himself. Council Minutes - 4 - Tues.,April 3, 1979 A. Super Valu Shopping Center (continued) Mr. Bale responded to a request from the audience as to the results of the survey taken by The Preserve: 700 mailings went out, 338 responses were received, of the responses received, 233 were in favor and 105 against. There was a 48% return on the mailing. Results broken down were as follows: Westwind - 24 yes, 9 no; Trails - 19 yes, 19 no; Highpoint - 23 yes, 15 no; Ridgewood - 16 yes, 4 no; Garrison Forest - 8 yes, 10 no; Northmark - 9 yes, 6 no; Basswoods - 12 yes, 4 no; Northmark II - 30 yes, 17 no; Amsden Hills - 16 yes, 6 no; Windslope - 50 yes, 6 no; Windsor - 20 yes, 9 no, and others - 6 yes. Linda Flavin, 9360 County Road 18, and Mrs. Dinham, 9310 Overlook Trail, stated they did not receive a survey card and felt they should have as they live close to the proposed site. Jullie explained the County had two different methods of constructih the intersection, one was total reconstruction which had a total construction cost of $136,400,00, and the other method of construction was widening and overlaying the existing surface at a cost of $109,400.00. Under each method the City's share was about $38,600.00, Bloomington's share was about $20,400, and the County was picking up the additional amount, not including any engineering fees, just raw construction, nor cutting down of the site distance problem to the north of the present intersection, but would include signalization. The County did subsequently revise their plan, but we have not received any cost estimates. Penzel questioned what if the County maintains its position that it will require concurrence of both municipalities or it will not participate, leaving us short in the neighborhood of $80,000 to $85,000, namely the County's share. Bale contented under that circumstance The Preserve would have to back off on that much of an investment on the roadway as it would go beyond the equities of the transaction. Fred Shuberg, 9405 Garrison Way, asked what the distance was from the west access to the shopping center and Garrison Way? Mr. Benshoo responded approximately 50 to 100 feet between the two intersections. Mr. Shuberg felt the distance to be totally inadequate making vision very limited. MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Edstrom, to close the Public Hearing on the Super Valu Shopping Center proposal. Motion carried unanimously. MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Edstrom, to adopt Resolution No. 79-22, approving the preliminary plat for Super Valu Center subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report and Commission reports, and to withhold any action on a final plat until such time as the traffic safety problems at the intersection of Anderson Lakes Parkway and County Road 18 have been resolved. Council members suggested that the County Commissioners also be contacted regarding this request. Osterholt stated the problem he has is that an approval of the resolution is essentially the City going on record officially in favor of the project, and if these other matters don't work out you are going to have a hard time saying that is the reason for not granting rezoning. Suggested another solution by reopening the Public Hearing and continuing the Public Hearing, and then directing Staff to go to the County and say we direct you to make these maintenance improvements and let them come back and say "yes" they will or "no" they won't, then you have no commitment of the City having made any decision on the resolution. Feels that is the better means of pursuing this matter, if that is the overriding concern of the Council. qa Council Minutes - 5 - Tues.,April 3, 1979 A. Super Valu Shopping Center (continued) City Attorney Pauly explained he feels the record is clear that the question of traffic and control of that traffic is a very important consideration for the Council and his view is that the suggested motion does not reflect that the Council feels the problem has been resolved. For that reason, Pauly stated, if the problem is not solved the City should be free not to give final approval to the plat as it is expressly being stated as a condition, and he does not see how the preliminary plat approval would create an implication of final plat approval of that use and would not view it as setting a precedent of the type of use expected, only in the event that the condition is met. Osterholt further commented if the action under consideration is approved he feels it does put the City in a position of having gone on record as saying this type of development is ok, but we would like to have certain things happen with regard to the traffic pattern. Osterholt pointed out a more critical problem in his opinion is to have so many homes that close to the project. Bill Bale stated the proponent would be agreeable to signing an agreement saying there would be no precedent set. • Councilwoman Pauly gave the following reasons for being supportive of the proposal: Staff recommendations and Planning Commission recommendations for approval, the guide plan does call for these four community t.umnmrr.ial centers, the fact that the corner was signed before the homes were built and it already has the PUO approval for high density muitiple.a lot of the people in The Preserve and in the area want the center, signalization and improvements at the intersection will be at a much less cost than they would otherwise be, and Mr. Bale's commitment to sign an agreement this would not set a precedent. Edstrom explained he supports the concept and feels resolution of the immediate problems at the intersection is essential for whatever the City intends to do with the parcel. That type of facility is needed in this area of Eden Prairie to serve the existing residents and future residents. Assuming transportation problems can be worked out at the intersection, it does make sense from a transportation standpoint to put a center on County Road 18 and Anderson Lakes Parkway. Penzel commented modification should be made to allow for adequate spacing between Garrison Way and the rear entrance (the western most entrance of the center) as it is totally inadequate. Penzel acknowledged before he is willing to proceed with this proposal the question of the intersection has to be resolved. Redpath called the question. Motion to include language suggested by City Attorney and agreement to be signed by The Preserve that there would be no precedent set. Motion restated as follows: MOTION: Redpath moved. seconded by Edstrom, to adopt Resolution No. 79-22, approving the preliminary plat for Super Yalu Center subject to the recommenda- tions of the Staff Report and Commission reports, to withhold any action on a final plat until such time as the traffic safety problems at the intersection of Anderson Lakes Parkway and County Road 18 have been resolved, approval of the preliminary plat would neither expressly or impliedly indicate any affirmative action on the part of the City to contribute any costs to the intersection at this time, and contingent on receiving a signed agreement from The Preserve stating no precedent would be set. Redpath, Edstrom and Pauly voted "aye", Osterholt and Penzel voted "nay". Motion carried, Council Minutes - 6 - Tues.,Aprii 3, 1979 • • A.

Edstrom stated he would like to see the matter continued as he is not fully aware of the past history on this property and would like time to research this history further before making a decision on how to vote on this matter. MOTION: Osterholt moved. seconded by Redpath, to continue the Public Hearing on Outlot A, Crestwood 73 by Alex Dorenkemper, to the April 7. 1979 Council meeting. Motion carried unanimously. 0.

As you are all aware, this matter has been before the Council and has been continued for reconsideration to Tuesday, April 3. Enclosed you will find four sheets of drawings of the land in question at the intersection of County Road 18 and Anderson Lakes Parkway, these four drawings prepared by the engineering firm of BRW at the request and cost of The Preserve and titled Short Range Alternate 1, Short Range Alternate 2, Short Range Alternate 3 and Long Range Plan. A discussion of the Plans follows, all of this engineering wort: and discussion being for the purpose of informing you, as Council members, prior to the scheduled meeting on Tuesday, April 3. SHORT RANGE ALTERNATE 1 This temporary solution is acceptable to Hennepin County and, we understand, with the staff of the City of Eden Prairie. It permits the utilization of the site by Super Valu and requires the agreement of the City of Bloomington for the connection of the Bloomington Ferry Road to County Road 18. The work contemplated under this plan involves lowering the hill to the north of the intersection on County iiii Road 18, reconstructing the four-way intersections so that there are four lanes on all roads approachi.ng. the intersection, installing of signals and cul de sating Amsclen Road whore it lies in the City of Bloomington. This solution is the most *oh.,M Po.M Puukolo.Ns..+ Weynot+pvn Sumo J WSW,If, wm xhc:B.•r I. dJ G•r dv■n0+►.cairn Ot COMA' t +f ( 0.'.A Pn,U+d.J po,,41l tYtAKw �']( JnC►A`AaNrg AN41'M Ft* �.ati+v,aJ lla.vgr Gn+tX'C�.�Y7.7 �710.—_. .�04.—Spur .......___.�._..... ..R1'Ulaa'It 1a. .— ..�..

It avoids the necessity of an immediate taking of the residence referred to above and because of the location of the intersection south of the existing intersection, may not require the lowering of the hill referred to above. It should be noted that the lowering of the hill would not be the obligation of either municipality but instead the obligation of Hennepin County, which obligation Hennepin County is willing to • assume. The principal disadvantages of this temporary solution are: (1) it requires the construction of a great deal of four-lane road which later would be abandoned, (21 the construction involves a very tight turn situation in the City of Eden Prairie thereby reducing the flow of traffic in what is understood to be a somewhat congested area, (3) it destroys the usability of The Preserve site during probably the next ten years, as proposed to be used by Super Valu; and (4) as a consequence to the foregoing, the contribution to signalling by Super Valu of $70,000 plus would not be realized by either municipality or Hennepin County. In conclusion, this is obviously not a cheap temporary solution • from the point of view of increased road construction costs, loss of signalling funding and loss of development of the Super Valu site. SHORT RANGE ALTERNATE 3 This proposal permits the City of Eden Prairie to move ahead without the immediate cooperation of the City of Bloomington, without prejudicing the rights of Bloomington to move ahead on its own schedule, at the lowest possible cost, and without in any way prejudicing the upgrading of County Road 18 should the City of Eden Prairie and the City of Bloomington so agree to that upgrading in the future. Mr. Wolfgang Ponzel Mr. Paul Redpath Mr. Dean Edstrom Mr. Sidney Pauly Mr. David Osterholt Page 3 March 28, 1979 yy The work involved under this proposal would be to widen Anderson Lakes Parkway as it intersects with County Road 18, to widen County Road 18 on the Eden Prairie side so to permit easy on and easy off at the intersection, and the installation of signal's at this intersection. • Amsden Road (in Bloomington) need not be upgraded or closed because of the low traffic. The traffic pattern from the east to west would flow along Veness Road and across the temporary gravel connection to County Road 18. The intersection of the temporary gravel connection to County Road 18 would not require signalization because of its long distance from the hill to the north of the intersection under consideration, and in connection with the actual signalization of the _ intersection, Super Valu is again prepared to pay $70,000 plus towards the cost of this traffic control. This proposal has the advantage of permitting the • immediate upgrading.of the intersection on the City of Eden Prairie side, the signalization of the intersection, the continuation of the traffic flow in a safe manner from Bloomington to County Road 18 across the temporary gravel connection, the development of the Super Valu site, and all of this at a relatively low cost. • LONG RANGE ALTERNATE PLANS • Assuming the City of Eden Prairie would approve Short Range Alternate 3, or in cooperation with the City of Bloomington, ' Short Range Alternate 1, both such proposals would be consistent, acceptable to the Hennepin County Highway Department and permit the expansion of County Road 18 to either arterial or freeway standards at a later date. No drawing is submitted with this letter for the arterial alternate plan since it would be just an extension of the work done as shown on Short Range Alternate 1 enclosed. The Long Range Plan attached shows how a freeway interchange might be constructed if approved by the•City of Eden Prairie and the City of Bloomington. The Long Range Plan enclosed would contemplate signalling at the off ramp in the City of Bloomington and at the off ramp at the City of Eden Prairie (opposite the Super q93 .'�', • • Mr. Wolfgang Penzol Mr. Paul Redpath Mr. Dean Edotrom Mr. Sidney Pauly Mr. David Osterholt Page 4 March 28, 1979 Valu store) and would contemplate that Old County Road 18 would become the service road as shown by the flow of traffic design next to parking on the Super Valu site. RESIDENT OPINION POLLS The City Council has received petitions both for and • against the development of the Super Valu site and the following information is simply to emphasize those petitions with which The Preserve is familiar. The City Manager, Roger Ulsted, and members of Eden Prairie's City Council have received a petition in favor of the development signed by 27 owners/residents. In addition, The Preserve took its own opinion po11 in the form of a . postcard mailing, a copy of the'form attached to this letter. The Preserve mailed out 700 of these cards and received a response of 233 Yes to 106 No. This represented a 48% return on the mailing. CONCLUSION Based upon the enclosed engineering studies and an examination of the problem by The Preserve, Super Valu, the developer for Super Valu (Ryan Construction Company) meetings with the staff of the City of Eden Prairie and Hennepin County, it seems that the following are reasonable conclusions. 1. Alternate 1 is the most direct solution to the development of the property but will probably be delayed by the City of Bloomington which is acting on its own schedule and for its own reasons, all in connection with the acquisition of 9201 County Road 18 and its view of the manner in which County Road 18 should be developed. 2. Alternate 2 is the most expensive, short-term solution to solving the traffic congestion which now exists at County Road 18 and Anderson Lakes Parkway, due to the excessive construction of four-lane roadway, the physical and economic damage upon the Super Yalu site and the loss of the contribution to the signalling expense. • • 441 0, _ -- Mr. Wolfgang Ponzel Mr. Paul Redpath Mr. Dean Edstrom Mr. Sidney Pauly 4 r Mr. David Osterholt Page 5 March 28, 1978 3. Alternate 3 represents the least expensive solution to the problem and probably the most expedient solution to the problem. It contemplates the use of existing roads } for access to County Road 18, the development of County Road 18 on the Eden Prairie side,,. the immediate development._ t of the Super Vale site a:s„that proposal is now before the City Council for the City of Eden Prairie and the use of Super Vale money of $70,000 plea at a contribution towards the necessary signalling at the intersection. 4. All of the foregoing preliminary conclusions are conatetent with and do not ruin the long tines plan for'-a full scale intersection in the ant that the City of Eden Prairie and the City of Bleomingtcut, in cooperation with the Hennepin County HighwayHigbwaY0aPartmeato. Should all agree that upgrading of County Road 18 should be accomplished to that level. It is not the intention of the enclosed material to suggest that at this 44ma either O. City of Eden Prairie or the City of Bloomington should take . a position on the Long Range Plan. The inter• eCtioa'i diagram as presented with this material is acceptable a to Hennepin County Highway etAn. rds. On behalf of the developers and Super Vale and consistent with what The Preserve and developers understand to be the consensus of residential opinion as to the necessity for the proposed Super Vela development, we would request that you approve the enclosed engineering data and the request for the rezoning and building of the shopping center consistent with Short Range Alternate 3.

APPROVAL OF AGENDA The agenda was approved as published. Id. ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION • A. Transition Ordinance for MCA vs. interim use agreements Bearman summarized the concerns of the Planning Commission on this subject, explaining that as the Major Center Area continues to grow with interim uses, the Planning Commission would like to have guidelines to determine future proposed interim uses. The drafting of a Transition Ordinance for the M.C.A. was discussed. and the following suggestions were made: 1. Combination of ordinance and developer's agreement, tailored to a situation. 2. Flexibility. rather than limited in approach. 3. Definition of M.C.A. boundaries. 4. Time frame for interim uses, termination date, subject to review periodically, with adequate notice given. 5. Protection of landowners. 6. Define purpose and objective. 7. Consideration of abatement of taxes on single family homes. 8. Study of surrounding communities' policies and ordinances directed at this question. 9. Request opinion from the City Attorney on the alternatives. 10. No additions to existing structures should be allowed. Bearman requested the item be put on the Planning Commission agenda for the May 14th meeting for discussion and recommendation to the City Council. 8. Discussion of liason Council member Bearman discussed, what the Planning Commission felt to be a communication link through a liason Council member. especially when large complex type proposals come before the Commission. C Joint City Council/ 'approved Planning Commission Minutes - 2 - April 16. 1979 B. Discussion of liason Council member (continued) Various suggestions were made and discussed and iy was generally aoreed unnn that a joint meeting be requested, in addition to the two meetings per year suggested by the City Council, whenever the need arose. C. Development Review 1. Totlots The Planning Commission requested a definition of tot lot, how it was authorized, and whether "density vs. lot size" was to be used in • determining the need. Mayor Penzel explained that it was a matter of definition, and that various criteria was used such as: 1. 1 acre 2. 10 acresftoo220 acn ace for res for userty to fort as informal game area, with ball its, maintained fume owners. fields, skating rink etc. 3. Tot lots were not regarded as trade-offs because they are not large enough, and the smaller the lot sizes were, the more the.tot lots are needed. 4. Avoidance of locating tot lots next to holding ponds for safety purposes. 2. Lot sizes The major concern of the Planning Commission was to receive the Council'S thoughts on the concept of lower cost housing on smaller lot sizes. The Mayor explained that there should be•a•strict relationship between the cost of housing and size of lot and two points should be considered: 1. Income 2. Are we meeting lower cost and middle income housing? This will be reviewed in depth during the Ordinance review. The Planner pointed out that policies that are being discussed at this stage may have very little effect, because most development will be planned for within the next 2 to 3 years. therefore an ordinance with tong range vision should be adopted. Cul-de-sacs were discussed, and it was generally agreed that the City had too many, and they should be limited to where they made sense in a project. 3. City's development rate; need vs. existing services The question of how much development could absorb in terms of roads and services was discussed. The Mayor explained ncial lers Associates, recommendedtt at $3,0000,000 the City's a yearly cbes spent tfor hpublic d improvements. The Planner explained that to the extent that we have development all .over the City, our road systems will continue to absorb it, but intense • • • Joint City Council/ 'approved Planning Commission Minutes - 3 - 'Merit 16, 1979 • 3.

The possible need for special assessments was discussed, and it was suggested that a new opinion from Ehlers and Associates be requested on the amount of funds to be used for public improvenents.

Reports of Staff 1. Development Proposals a. Meadow Park Single Family Subdivision Lambert introduced Mr. Don Buteyn and Mr. Dave Vogel who presented the project to the commission. The plan had been altered slightly, adding more acreage to provide the road, (the new total is 27 acres) and increasing the number of lots to 47. Sidewalks are planned along Larkspur Lane and Homeward Hills Road; these would create a connection from the Preserve to Purgatory Creek. Kruell questioned the fact that the developers hold 45 acres, and are developing only 27 at this point. He asked if this doesn't negate the purpose of the EAW worksheet, which is required on developments of 40 acres or more. Can we and should we consider the entire area? Although Lambert agreed that Kruell had made a good point, there is no way the commission can require the developer to include all his land in a proposal. Kruell asked how close it would be to a neighborhood park. Lambert told him that it is about 1 mile to Lake Eden and two blocks from a proposed 5-6 acre park. • MOTION: Dave Anderson moved to recommend to the council approval of the Meadow Park project according to the staff recommendations in the memorandum of March 29, 1979. Tangen seconded the motion and it passed unanimously. b. High Trails Estates Lambert introduced Cliff Swenson who handled the presentation to the commission. The proposal showed 79 lots in a 40 acre development with a mini-park plus cash park fees. He also mentioned that the potential drainage problem was going to be resolved. Kruell questioned whether the information on the drainage at Duck Lake was correct. R. Anderson asked which park would serve the area. When he was told Eden Farms West, he pointed out that it is not yet owned by the city. Lambert explained that within a few months a developer has suggested dedicating this park (8-9 acres) area as part of a development proposal he is working on. Dave Anderson pointed out that part of the proposed development is within one-half mile of Prairie View School/Park. /Ga„( MEMORANDUM TO: Parks, Recreation and Natural Resources Commission FROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services DATE: March 29, 1979 SUBJECT: Development Proposal Check List PROJECT: Meadow Park Single Family Subdivision PROPONENT: Don Paulks, Dean Faulks, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Reynolds REQUEST: Approval of preliminary plat with 44 single family lots on 26 acres, and rezoning from.

B. Meadow Park, by Faulks & Reynolds.. Request to rezone 26 acres from Rural • to R1-13.5 and preliminary plat 44 single family lots. Located north of Sunnybrook Road. A public hearing. The City Planner discussed the staff report of March 20, 1979 explaining that one of the main concerns was access to the property. and that the planning staff does not feel that Sunnybrook Rd. west is a viable access for the devel- •opment because it is a gravel road and has a hazardous intersection at-U.S. 169. He outlined several alternatives for access through the construction of Home- ward Hills Road extension as well as a secondary access through Olympic Hills Sixth Addition or an access to Creek Knoll Road via direct connection between Sunnybrook Road and Creek Knoll Road. .Mr. Don Buteyn , representative for the pro- ponent, explained that the surrounding proposals, Lake Heights Addition and Olympic Hills Sixth Addition have received Planning Contnission approval, and that they are currently negotiating with N. S. P. on land to the west, and they feel it will not present a problem. There is an N.S.P. easement on the land. This property will contain middle and upper income hones. Mr. Jerry Sundeen,land surveyor for the proponent discussed the site as rolling, agricultural land, with all lots cuittormina to the zoning ordinance. They are negotiating with N.S.P. for right-of-way for Homeward Hills Road and the outlot that would be created between placement of the lots. Bentley asked what alternatives were available if there was difficulty in the negotiation of-the right-of-way from N.S.P. . Sundeen responded that the plat would have to be re-designed and explained that the City staff favored the extension of Homeward Hills Road. The Planner added that this project would need the approval of the Riley/Purgatory Watershed Oistrict,and the Department of Natural Resources would have to make a determination on fill in public waters . If fill is necessary, a permit will be required. lit explained further that an alternate plan was running Homeward Hills Road through the middle of the plat. • B'ntley asked what the time schedule was for this project. Lundeen responded they would like to proceed at the best reasonable rate on the project. • et2S • approved Manning Commission Minutes - 3 - March 26, 1979 B. Meadow Park public hearing (continued) Levitt questioned no. 9 of staff report, and requested an evaluation of these two cul-de-sacs to see whether there was a way to alleviate them. He commented that there have been several proposals recently in the Neil Lake area, and that the Shoreland Management Ordinance was in the' process'of being adopted. The City favored Heil Lake as a"general development' classification, rather thus a "natural environmental". The Planner explained that the Shoreland Management Ordinance has only received first reading approval from the City Council, and that the City will have to petition the DNR in order to change the classification, and this shoud be done prior to the final adoption of the Ordinance. He explained • further that the City has talked with DNR representatives regarding the Preserve as far as densities, and has been told to honor previous conmittments. The pedestrian system, which according to the staff report, was designated to run around Neil Lake, was discussed and the Planner explained that the original plan has been modified along Homeward Hills Road and that the rear yard path has been eliminated. Levitt asked whether it was agreeable to the developer that the sidewalk leading from Outlot C be placed within right-of-way of Homeward Hills Road. Sundeen responded affirmative, it is contemplated for the project. Mr. Don Buteyn, representing the proponents, requested information on the pro- lem of assessments on upgrading of Sunnybrook Road. The Planner explained the three methods of handling the problem; as developer installation, request for assessment hearing, and 100% petition for improvements. Mrs. Libby Hargrove, 12640 Sunnybrook Rd., presented two concerns: increased traffic on Sunnybrook with increased housing, and would like assurance that thelHomet berarHill lsdaccess wouTde elundertaken. She asked whether Sunnybrook Rd. that the staff recommendation would be to cul-de-sac Sunnybrook Road to Highway 169 at time of second access. Hargrove expressed-favor for the cul-de-sating of Sunnybrook Rd. She inquired further about the improvement of Sunnybrook Rd. and who would pay for them. The Planner responded that improvements would df ilue ded sewer e 1rs and dwater for the residents of Sunnybrook Road lying east nc ad. Torjesen questioned whether it was appropriate to recommend approval with so many items being unknown. The Planner explained that there are three other subdivisions in the area that will provide the necessary access, and it is advantageous to be able to consider them all at one time.

PROJECT LOCATION: In the SE Quarter of Eden Prairie. North of County Road 1 and Purgatory Creek, East of 1169, West of Neill Lake and South of Anderson Lakes Parkway. DATE: March 20, 1979 } BACKGROUND: The Project area is currently vacant land within the area of Sunnybrook Road. North of Purgatory Creek in Eden Prairie. NSA, property borders the project on the western side and is the site of 320 k.v. NSP highline. • Both the 1968 Guide Plan and proposed 1979 Guide Plan Update denote this area as low density residential. The Project is within 1000 feet of Neill Lake so is classified as shoreland. The draft copy of the Shoreland Management Ordinance which has been reviewed by the Park and Recreation and Natuaral Resources Commission and Planning Commission is predicated upon Neill Lake being reclassified as a General Levelopment water with regards to this project. The lot sizes shown in this project all are within the allowable size of the general development district of the shoreline management ordinance. Since the project is bordered on the west by an open water area in some cases a 100 year storm flood elevation must be determined by the proponent in order to provide finish floor lower elevations a mimimum of 2 feet above the 200 year flood outlet. EXISTING SITE CHARACTER: The general topography of the site can be characterized assteeply rolling open meadow. A band of grading. approximately 250 feet in width occuring along the I&7 • 1p MU- Mtnuuw YAKK mar. CU, 1,I7 Page 2 EXISTING SITE CHARACTER, CON'T alignment of the internal loop road will be required to accamedate a road, sanitary sewer and water improvements and building pads . City ordinance does not allow street grades in excess of 7$ S. The street grade from East to West along the road shown as Preserve Boulevard is approximately 8% for a distance of 300 feet. This is in excess of.allowable City standards and must be modified. There is an additional steep grade toward the center of the loop road shown as Larkspur Lane which is approximately 60 for a distance of 300 feet. This grade is acceptable. The area to the West of this site where the proposed Homeward Hills road runs pis probably classified as public waters by the Department of Natural. Resources since it is shown as open water and CattailTReed-Canary,Marsh Vegetation on their area quadrangle maps. In order to build Homeward Hills Road it will be necessary for the proponents to; 1) obtain permission or ownership of the land from NSP, 2) obtain determination from the local watershed district as to whether a Chapter 105 work and public waters permit will be required from the Depart- ment of Natural Resources, 3) assume the assessments or the building casts of the entire length of Homeward Hills Road along the western boundary of this parcel. .There are existing homes in the area occuring on the north side of Sunnybrook • Road which are shown as exceptions to the project and are bordered by proposed lots of equal size . Sanitary sewer service and water service is obtained from the existing inpiace systems occuring to the south of plat at Sunnybrook Road and extended northward within the NSP power line easement up to the juncture of Homeward Hills Road and the proposed Larkspur Lane.. Storm sewer for the site is carried on the north side of the site in the street and within the storm sewer systems from East to West in Preserve Boulevardcollected in a set of catch basins at the intersection of Homeward Hills Road and Preserve Boulevard within the wetland area. A northern cul-de-sac accepts the drainage mostly from the street itself and the surrounding lots and collects it in a catch basin which is then connected to a storm sewer which proceeds to the west in outlets from the west side of Homeward Hills Road. Drainage from the balance of Larkspur Lane in the south- ern cul-de-sac is collected at a low point occuring approximately 100 feet south of the intersection of the southern cul-de-sac in Larkspur Lane and then piped to the east into a lowland outlot shown as outlot C on the plat. The storm. water along Homeward Hills Road is collected in catch basins and channeled towards • the west low lying property. The last one-fifth of length of Homeward Hills Road toward the south as it intersects with Sunnybrook Road does not illustrate any type of catch basin system and should be addressed in detail by the pro- ponent prior to final construction. The entire storm sewer system must be re- view and approved by the City Engineering Department and the Riley-Purgatory Creek Watershed District. , 2q Memo- Meadow Park March 20, 1979 Page 2b • LOCATION NAP ... • j 4 l • nib ` . • • y IT .

MEMO • MEADOW PARK Mar. 20, 1979 Page 3 - TRANSPORTATION By far, the critical factor in determining when development 011 reach Sunnybrook area is accessibility. Currently the site is only accessible from the South and West via existing Sunnybrook Road out to #169. Existing Sunnybrook Road is a gravel road and the intersection with #169 is ±gry hazardous. Lake Heights Addition which is the Universal Land propetal for single family and multiple uses which was recently approved adjacent to and north of this site could provide the,first link to an alternate means of-access to the site. Anderson -Lakes Parkway which lies north ,of the Lake Heights. Addition is currently not in flace.This connection must'be'thade'pr forr to Con- s-truction of any units in the Lake Heights Addition. •Also,as a part of the Lake Heights Addition:.The developer,would extend.

The third means of access which potentially exists would Occur to ;.; the North and East of the project through a proposed addition titled Neill Woods Addition by the Preserve which is currently proposed and which would allow a circuitous route to the Northeast to Preserve •Boulevard. The fourth means of access potentially existing out of the site area would exist If as a f of the 169-County Road 1 intersection upgrading the State Highway Department would be contemplating purchase of additional right-of-way on the -Eastern side s. of 11169 which would allow the City to dead end Sunnybrook Road as it Approaches #169 and swing it South within new right-of-way tc connect with deadd.,ended•Creak knoll Road, this would allow a southern access out of the site down to County Road 1. The fifth and long range potential access out of the site would be 'the completion of Homeward Hills Road south across Purgatory Creek'to:.r.leeet1 ;. Road 1. This would be the ultimate and ideal solution for development of the entire area. No development should occur in the area until at least two safe accesses are provided to help preclude additional use of the Sunnybratl - ' access. MEMO- MEADOW PARK Mar. 20, 1979 PAGE 4 • • SIDEWALK AND TRAIL SYSTEMS As a continuation of the sidewalk from the North within Lake Heights Addition there should be a 5 foot wide concrete sidewalk built on the East side of Homeward Hills Road within the road right-of-way along the entire Western por- tion of this.proposai. In addition, although Outlot B is shown as a potential connection of the neighborhood with the sidewalk along Homeward Hills Road, the grade as it approaches Homeward Hills Road is in excess of 12% and is not acceptable as a•pedestrian or bikeway. In addition Outlot C which is a storm...-. sewer sedimentation pond prior to hinderance of storm water to Neill Lake would also allow the opportunity for connection of a trail to the City trail which will exist on the south side of Neill Lake and to the Preserve Trail System which will be constructed around the West. North and Eastern side of Neill Lake. It would be desirable because of Outlot C to have a more direct connection between Homeward Hills Road which will go south of County Road 1 and north to the neighborhood park site. The Planning Staff would suggest that a five foot concrete sidewalk be constructed from Outlot C within the right-of-way of Larkspur Lane southerly to the intersection of Homeward Hills Road. And that a six foot bitumious path be constructed on the south side of Outlot C to connect the sidewalk with the Neill Lake Trail System. PARK AND RECREATION The existing proposal does not contain a Tot Lot. however the.Park and Re- creation Commission may wish to consider a safe connection over to a Mini Park which would be planned directly west of the site on the western side of the NSP property. In addition,the Cash Park Fee in effect at the time of Building Permit Issuance should be charged to the site to provide its share of the cash contribution toward the area neighborhood park. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS • 1. The proposal for the planned unit development for the entire 34 acre parcel as single family is not necessary at this time because the proposal is cbnsis- tant with the Comprehensive Guide Plan therefore the Comprehensive Guide Plan would already allow single family residential. 2. The current request for preliminary platting and zoning of 26 acres of land for 44 units is consistent with Ordinance 135 in terms of lot sizes and den- sity. • 3. The current proposal for current preliminary platting is dependent upon the acquisition of the Homeward Hills right-a-way from NSP and the ability to construct Homeward Hills Road to access the property as well as a second- ary aecess through Olympic Hills Sixth Addition or Neillwood Addition or an access to Creek Knoll Road via direct connection between Sunnybrook Road and Creek Knoll Road. 633 MO- MEADOW PARK Mar. 20, 1979 AGE 5 FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS CON'T 4. Approximately 300 feet of length occuring along proposed Preserve Boulevard is in excess of the 74K grade allowed as maximum by our sub- division ordinance. 5. Additional storm sewer catch basin detail is required along the southern 1/5 of the proposed Homeward Hills Road. 6. The proposal is consistent with the proposed Shoreland Management Ordinance and classification changes. 7. The pedestrain system as shown is not adequate and should be modified to include sidewalk along the eastern side of Homeward Hills Road and a side- walk along the eastern side of Larkspur Lane from Outlot C south to Homeward Hills Road and six foot black top pathway along the south side of Ouutlet C to connect to the Neil Lake Trail System. 8. If Sunnybrook Road is to be utilized as access to the East or to the West it must be improved to a City road standard . 9. The two cul-de-sacsshown as Larkspur Circle do not allow possibilities of an additional loop road without double fronting of all the lots on Larkspur Lane and double fronting of all the lots on Homeward Hills Road,therefore it seems desirable to allow two short cul-de-sacs. 10. The Park and Recreation and Natural Resource Commission should determine the need for a Tot Lot. However it does seem appropriate that the Cash Park Fee be paid in any case. 11. No Environmental Assessment Work Sheet is-required for this project since it is less than 40 acres in size and less than 50 units within a shoreline area. RECOMMENDATIONS The Planning Commission may choose to: 1. Approve the preliminary plat for 44 lots on 26 acres and the rezoning from rural to R1-13.5 contingent upon Findings and Conclusions of the Staff Report, or: 2. Deny the project because of the inconsistencies with City Ordinances and Requirements and the lack of adequate access to the site. or: 3.

City Planner _ _ “Wariemmirrtk City of Eden Prairie 8950 Eden Prairie Road Eden Prairie, Minnesota 55344 • Re: Meadow Park Development Dear Mr. Enger: . The engineering advisors to the Board of Managers Of the Riley-Purgatory Creek Watershed District have reviewed the preliminary plans, as submitted to the District for the Meadow Park Development in Eden Prairie. The following policies and criteria of the Watershed District are applicable to this project: 1. Grading operations are planned adjacent to a large wetland area located along the western lot line of the development site. This wetland area may be classified as public waters by the Maw .Yf11'a Department of Natural Resources (MDNR). A determination of public waters and a natural ordinary highwater elevation must be estabigahpd by the EDER. Should development encroach below the natural ordinary highwater elevation, a Chapter 105 Work in Public Waters Permit will be required. In areas where development remains above the natural ordinary highwater elevation, a Riley-Purgatory Creek Watershed District grading and land alteration permit will be required. Accompanying this permit application, a detailed erosion - I control plan outlining how sediment will be prevented from leaving the altered areas on the development site both during and after construction must be submitted to the District for review and approval. 2. A detailed storm sewer plan must be submitted to the District for review and approval. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this development at an early date.

What are the differences between the original proposal LAuqust 1,4 _1970 and the current prc:posal? First, the original proposal included only Eden Prairie and assumed that South Hennepin Human Services Council (SHHSC)would do the research, conduct the survey, compile the results, evaluate and make recommendations -- in other words, SHHSC would do the study for Eden Prairie. That study's cost totaled$56,724, with SHHSC committed funds accounting for$15,935 of that amount, leaving a balance of$40,788 to be funded from other sources. The current proposal includes all four South Hennepin communities and •assumes that each city will gather its own data, with SHHSC role being one of coordinator, monitor,and advisor. The total cost will be $47,684, with$24,502 committed by SHHSC, leaving $23,182 to be funded by the four cities. If each contributes $3,000, there is a very good likelihood that a private source will also contribute. 2. Whv is the study being recommended by the Human Rights and Servict:s Commission? This could be a useful and valuable component to Eden Prairie's Com- prehensive Guide Plan. It will assess the human services needs of this rapidly growing community, recommend future services and/or expansion of existing services based on those current and anticipated needs, and deter- mine how the city can work with Hennepin County to make better use of services already available through the County. The aim is to provide a fair share of human services for Eden Prairie's present and future residents. 3. What is included in human services? There are a number of categories covering a broad range of services. The Community Committee (an Important of the city's input for the study) would pick out those of most importance to Eden Prairie to study in more depth. Human services can include: Alcohol and drug abuse services; children and youth (counseling, adoption, day care, recreation); community care for adults (home-delivered nteals, nursing homes, day care); community groups and relations (civic and social community groups); consumer services (client advocacy, consumer education, information and referral); counseling; criminal justice; develcnmeaetal disabilities (physical and mental) (education, information/referral, day eate. rehabilitation, employment, sheltered workshops, residences); community education; emergency services (child protection, fire and rescue,'tut lines". IIiU� p. 2 Memo to City Council about Comprehensive study of Human Service Needs emergency food/shelter/clothing); employment and training; family planning (counseling, clinic); financial services (AFDC, food stamps, money management); handicapped (blind, deaf, physical impairment, transportation); public health: (home nursing, clinics, screening, immunization, education); mental health (counseling, treatment, education, in-patient/out-patient clinic, referral);. older adults (housing, transportation, recreation, nutrition, health, education); volunteer services (transportation services, emergency services, advocacy, referral, training). 4. What is the Community Consultation Committee? It is a group of Eden Prairie people who would act-as the information gathering and coordinating committee for Eden Prairie's part of the study. It would also function to make recommendations specifically for Eden Prairie and to provide input to the Area Study Advisory Committee and to the County Board of Commissioners. The Human Rights and Services Commission plus others representing specific facets of Eden Prairie community could make up that Committee. The Committee would also be responsible for with staff and agencies to gather information. (The City Council would be represented on the Committee.) 5. How much staff time would be required from Eden Prairie for the study? It is estimated that a maximum of half-time for about a year would be necessary to gather Eden Prairie's information. This includes a survey to be developed by SHHSC for the use of all four communities. Administrative (or staff) cost for implementing recommendations that may be made as a result of the study conclusions by the Community Consultation Committee could be included in the final report. 6. Could an outside firm or private agency do the study for less money? If an outside agency did the study, It is difficult to break out just part of it, as it currently is proposed. There would still need to be extensive community involvement and input in order to establish meaningful priorities and long-range recommendations. The other three communities' staffs are prepared to go ahead with their own data and information gathering. A strong indication of support was given for the four community study at the August 24 meeting of SHIISC, City Council members and staff from the communities. Discussion with a private consulting firm that does planning and -esearch In this area revealed that they would not give a bid price unless there was a request and proposal to bid on. It costs them from$1,500 to $3,000 to put together a bid, and they expect to recoup that expense by getting the job. Stricker estimates the study would cost the equivalent of$90,000 from a private agency. (SHHSC will actually be spending$25,502, with an additional $23,182 from the four cities and private sources.) In order to prepare a detailed request for bid, Stricker estimated the city would spend $1,000 to$3,000. That is $2,500 to $6,000 just to have a private firm give us a price for the study;it doesn't include any work on the study itself. Current prices are about$250 per day. This includes administration, clerical, overhead. salaries anti:7°% for profit. As an example, this firm is now designing a questionnaire form and evaluation form for an Indian tribe. It will cost $12,000. Such tasks are a small part of the propo::ed study we are considering. No reputable firm will bid on a project unless it is assured it will be wcxtlr their while. The Commission feels that SIIHSC, city staff, the Community • /Off • • P. 3 Memo to City Council about Comprehensive Study of Haman Service Needs , ' Consultation Committee and the Area Advisory Committee will be able to perform a highly professional and valid study for much Less money than a privets firm. • { 7.

The remainder of the lot drops off to the northwest at an approximate 20% grade. • Heavy vegetation exists to the north and west of the home providing a natural screen between the home and Schooner Boulevard(150 feet to the northeast) and the Eden Prairie Center(1,000 feet to the northeast). • -- ORDINANCE REQUIREMENTS • If the proponent were to request rezoning to Office District the proposal would conform to ordinance setbacks, lot size, and it would exceed the number of parking spaces required(5.7 are required, 12 are proposed). BUILDING REQUIREMENTS The Chief Building Inspector, upon request by the proponent, inspected the home to determine if the structure was acceptable to be used as a dental lab. His inspection concluded that it would be necessary to have an additional exit in the south exterior wall with appropriate landing. • The Building Inspector also concluded that the structure does not meet current building standards as to stairway width, hall widths, toliet facilities, etc., for office uses. SITE PLAN The proposed new drive and 12 parking spaces would be difficult to achieve without a steep drive, considerable fill, and removal of 12-15 small elm trees. None of the parking stall dimensions meet the minimum ordinance width of 10 feet; and 2 stalls do not meet the required length of 20 feet. No landscaping of the parking area has been illustrated. RECOMMENDATIONS: The Planning Staff would recommend approval of the use subject to the following conditions: 1. Relocate the new drive closer along the structure, thus reducing the grade (see diagram on page4a ). 2. Combine the existing drive with the new drive, thereby the property would have only 1 interaction with Franlo Road.

Mr. Robert Bouten's Dental Lab, request to operate a dental lab at 8460 Franlo Road. (next to Dr. Belvedere) The Planner briefly summarized the recommendations of the staff report. Mr. Robert Bouten, Normandale II Dental Laboratory, discussed one of the problems of the parking lot area, explaining that the amount of fill needed made it difficult economically. He requested nutting in the fill and rock surfacing the parking lot this fall, and hard surfacing it in the spring. The Planner responded that on a 3 year agreement in a residential area, the parking lot should be hard sur- faced and felt that enough fill could be generated by leveling off the area. Bouten did not feel this would be a problem, and felt that after 3 years they would like to do more with the land. Dearman expressed concern with "transitional land uses" around the Major Center Area. Would we have to grant "transitional uses"? Our Ordinance does not provide for interim agreement and nresently the interim agreement is somewhat of a temporary variance. Bentley inquired about the upperand lower floor plan, and referred to the recommendation for an additional door. Bouten agreed to meet - this recommendation. MOTION: Bentley moved to recommend to the City Council approval of the request to operate a dental lab as an interim use for a period of three years based upon the items of the staff report included within • a Interim Use Agreement between Mr. Bouten and the City with the following addition to the staff report of April 4, 1979: No.11- The • addition of an additional access from south face of the building.

We will also use $10,000/acre as the current market costs. because that is about what we were told we would have to pay for the land on our preferred park site on Homeward Hills Road. (We were told $15,000/acre for the site at the corner of Co. Rd. 1 and Franlo Road.) This is the amount brought in by the various ordinances: CITY CASH PEE DEDICATED LAND Eden Prairie $65,000 10 acres + $20,000 (land would be graded 4 seeded) Burnsville $100,000 10 acres Chanhassen $47,000 4.6 acres Chaska $37,500 (raw land value) S acres Shakopee $50,000 10 acres • Prior Lake $37,500 10 acres Savage $100,000 10 acres Bloomington $100,000 10 acres Eagan $48,000 10 acres Plymouth $55,000 10 acres Blaine $56,250 10 acres + $18,750 Edina • $50,000 "reasonable" Maple Grove $50,000 S acres Cottage Grove $55,000 8.5 acres + $30,000 (land graded 4 seeded) Apple Valley $100,000 10 acres Of course,the problem with terms like"10% of the fair market value:or currant market value; tend to immediately cause differences of opinion between the developer and the City. This difference of opinion leads to costly delays for the developer and sometimes costly condemnation actions for the City. /6 • MEMO: TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Chris Enger, Director of Planning THROUGH: Roger Ulstad, City Manager DATE: April 26, 1979 SUBJECT: COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN The proposed Guide Plan has-now been reviewed by the City Commissions with recommendations to the City Council. Also, included in Chapter 7 (addendum) are the recommended additions from the Conmissitms end iwritterr communicattons - -- from property owners and other interested parties regarding the Guide Plan. Only the recommendations from the Commissiont are suggested for incorporation or change of the Guide Plan at this time. The Mandatory Planning Bill calls for the communities' Guide Plan to be a- dopted by the local planning unit and accepted by the local governmental unit prior to submission to the Metruplitan Council. Also, b months prior to submission of the Guide Plan to the Metropolitan Council the local unit must send copies to all surrounding communities for review and comment. Upon receipt of a Community Guide Plan, the Metropolitan Council has 120 days to return written comments to the local unit to incorporate in its plan. Since Eden Prairie has been involved in the Guide Plan process for over three years, with numerous public meetings, workshops, and forums; we believe that there has been maximum exposure given to the basic Guide Plan. We would therefore suggest that the Council set a special meeting as a public hearing for review of the Guide Plan and approval for submission of the document to the Metropolitan Council. Since the basic document was just recently distributed to our surrounding neighbors, we have about 5 months before we can submit this to the Metropolitan Council. In that time, we would expect to update all the graphics that have been modified since the beginning of the planning process. Two potential dates for the public hearing would be June 12 and June 26. The staff would expect to make just a very short summary presentation of the Commission, recommendations to the Council at that time. A second public hearing could be scheduled subsequent to the Metropolitan Council for final City Council adoption. CE:ds • Ion. MBMORAKI/M TO: Mayor and City Council • . THRD: Roger K. Ulatad, City Manager PROM: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services DATE: April 27, 1979 SUBJBCr: Bryant Lake PaYk Plan On April 20, 1979 staff sent tint•information on the Bryanr twke Park Plan. Since that tine, Mr. Rodberg staked the boatmen of the Proposed access toad: I have reviewed that road alignment, on site,, wixh Carl Jullie, City Engineer, and with Keith Wall of our Public Seety went. Staff continues to support the direct access to the park for the following reasons.: • a. The alignment &erre/Posedby fkr. Rodberg and Mt, Terrain doesn't provide enough room.for proper yowler/CS forma intersect on with Rowland Road. It would.' difficult to awake* left-turn vesting out of the park. Mr. Jullie felt that it the park Vern tg at that point, that it would have to errata at a 9atlgle from Rowland Road and would require 10-12 feet of fill at the bottom of the lea area. b. Cost - The difference in alignment would result in a$11,000 arr`erence in grading costs, asnaeing the fill and.bass could be acquired on the site. If the alignment were et a 90"angle at the same location it would be even wore vorpensive. Mr. Rodberg+a privacy could be maintained by pan*mitr4on of a berm between hie property line and the access road in the park. • Mr. Rodberg suggested another Change to the plan that I felt would benefit the park. Be suggests that the boat launch site be moved from the point southoast,rly approximately 400 feet, and also to move the boat parking area closer to the launch - site. BL:md MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council THRU: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services PROM: James E. Jensen, Park Planner DATE: April 27, 1979 SUBJECT: Feasibility of Pedestrian/Bicycle Trail Along Valley View Road Preliminary investigation into a trail along Valley View Road has been completed in response to the April 16, 1979 petition requesting a separated path for bike riders and pedestrians. Several general criteria have to be considered in preparing for construction of such a trail, and are listed as follows: • . ' 1. Property Ownerships - Very seldom are the topography and other physical barriers positioned favorably for keeping trails that are adjacent to roadways within the road right-of-way. Therefore, adjacent property owners have to be considered for acquisition of easements or backslope easements. 2. Natural and man-made features - Topography, roadway backslopes, ditches, fences, poles, trees, etc. have to be considered to determine what changes have to be made, what mitigating steps are taken to insure aesthetic and functional compatibility, and what natural phenomenon have to be considered and incorporated into the design. 3. Funding Criteria - In most instances there are criteria regulating horizontal and verical alignment of a trailway, as well as the construction► section. 4. Future considerations affecting construction - This category may often abbreviate consideration for certain construction based upon cost/benefit in a particular time frame. S. Present and future benefit from construction. In preparing this'feasibility report, these five criteria are considered and weighed separately and together. Basically there is a general awarenesss of the need for a separated bike/pedestrian trailway along Valley View Road, and for that matter, many of the roadways in Eden Prairie. In viewing the corridor several times I have concluded that a bikeway could be constructed between County Road 4 and Edenvale Blvd. Starting at County Road 4 and proceeding east, the south side of Valley View Road would be the most favorable positioning for the path. Most of the adjacent homes on the south side have "claimed" Valley View R.O.W. as part of their front yardf, resulting in numerous trees, hedges, fences, etc. that are in the R.O.W. and could be removed for construction of a trail. • -2- The south side is the favorable side for the trail all the way to Ontario Blvd. where it would have to cross to the north side for the crossing of Purgatory Creek. One serious problem exists in front of 15917 and 15817 Valley View Road. A very steep backslopo arises from the roadway shoulder and stretches southward. The owner of 15917 has agreed to an easement according to the petition, and the owner of 15817 has not. Even if the easement were procurrod from both owners the trail would be forced to climb the steep slope, and compounded with the 104 already existing on the road, the slope for the trail could conceivably be 20. or more. A slope of this magnitude would surely prompt users to go back to riding on the roadway. Slopes in excess of 8% are usually considered steep for a bike trail, unless a downhill run precedes the uphill so that sufficient momentum will help carry the rider up the grade. Minnesota Department. of Transportation --- -- funding criteria dictates that there be 10' between the driving lane and an off-road bike trail so the trail on the shoulder below the slope would not work either. ' A trail on the north side of Valley View Road from County Road 4 east for the first 2,000' would be almost impossible due to topography, ditches, and large power poles. About 15-20 poles would have to be moved to accommodate a trail in this area. At least half of the poles are major NSP power poles and it is estimated by NSP that it would cost the City about $1,000 per pole to move. It is estimated by Carl Jullie, City Engineer, that Valley View Road will be upgraded in 5-10 years and possibily as soon as 3 years. To build a full scale bike trail along Valley View Road when it might have to be removed in 3-5 years may not be the best use of the funding. It has been indicated to me by the trail funding people at MNDot that it is possible to transfer part or all of the funds proposed for County Road 1 trail and use them for a trail along Valley View Road. They also informed me that it may be possible to fund the Valley View Road trail in the 1980 funding period beginning later this year. (MNDot staff are not in favor of moving funds from County Road 1 to Valley View Road.) Cost estimates for 8' wide bituminous path from County Road 4 east to Edenvale Blvd. (south side east from County Road 4 to Ontario Blvd.; north side from Ontario to Edenvale Blvd.) Grading $10,000 (based upon equipment rental only) Base - 800 ton 5,000 (material only) Bituminous - 4,200 20,000 (material only) lineal feet Possible Acquisition 10,000 Restoration 2,500 Bridge Structure. 4,0000 RECOMMENDATION Based upon cost/benefit for an unknown period of time, the staff recommends that the 8' bituminous trail not be constructed, even though it may be possible to build the trail as indicated in the cost estimates above. As a possible temporary alternative, a 5-6' wide limestone trail could be constructed from County Road 4 east to Ontario Blvd. or Purgatory Creek. Using City funding the trail could be placed on tin shoulder where necessary (below the steep slopes of 15917 and 15817 Valley View Rand.) A minimum of grading would have to be done for the temporary trail leaving the major cost in the limestone only. A 3/8" minus crushed limestone becomes quite hard surfaced once it has been wet compacted and would be sufficient for bicycles, at least on a temporary basis. �� io'JL • • • • • • Cost estimate: . S00 tons of 3/8" minis crashed limestone . x$.00 =limestone estimated cost 2,500 grading 1 000 restoration • 00 total estimated cost This cost becomes much easier to accept When Valley View Road is upgraded and the trail is torn up. d6J:ad .. • • • • • • • • • • • • #. MEMORANDUM • - TO: Mayor and City Council • TRHU: Bob Lambert, Director of Community Services FROM: Stuart A. Fox, City Forester DATE: Arpil 28, 1979 SUBJECT: Diseased Tree-Removal Alternatives II In a memorandum dated November-30; 1978, the staff briefly-outlined the hauling - problems which have plagued the tree disease program over the past 2 years. The recommendation of that memo was that the tree program needed to improve its hauling reliability and capability. The City Council granted the staff request to use up to $12,500, of unspent 1978 program funds, to purchase a 30 yard tree hauling truck. In December the City advertised for bids on a tree hauling truck. However, when the bids were received tht lowest bid was $16,000 and subsequently the bids were rejected. Nith summer approaching, the staff still feels it is imperative that a solution that will provide reliable, low cost hauling for homeowners diseased trees be found promptly. 1978 SUMARY Trucks used for hauling: (1) - Civil Defense Truck with Prentice Loader 2-S yd., 21/4 Ton Dump Trucks (maximum hauling capacity 10 yds per trip) . Fuel: Gas • Fuel Usage: . 15-20 gallons per day Prentice (x2) 18-24 gallons per day per dump truck. 51-68 gallons per day x $.58 per gallon Fuel cost $29.60-$39.50 per day Prentice i of hours operated I of'work hours in period C of total hours worked Feb. 28-June 2 267 hrs. 400 hrs. 67% June 5-August 25 192h hrs. 472 hrs. 41% August 28-September 20 57 hrs. 152 hrs. 38e Sept. 21-Nov. 23 Prentice down - broken 352 hrs. 0% front axle totals 55114 hrs. 1,424 hrs. 39% The above chart is a hourly use breakdown for the prentice log loading truck during the 1978 season. The major reason the truck operated only 59% of the available work time was due to the numerous mechanical breakdowns of the 1953 (MC (CD) Civil Defense Truck. • • -2- Breakdown Expenditures for the CD Truck: Parts $2,833.00 Labor 215 manhours - ! $7.55/hr. 1,623.00 Total $4,156.00 In addition to the above costs the tree program had the following expenditures to haul trees while the CD truck was being repaired. Rental of log loading truck July 18-Sept. 1 ($2,000/mo.) $3,000 Contractual hauling - 24 days (August-November) 8 $42/hr. 8,026 Total $11,026 When you combine the repair costs with the funds-expended to supplement hauling-rksie- . the CD was being repaired the total is $15,182. These costs were not anticipated in the formulation of the 1978 budget. The tree program was able to meet the expenditures without exceeding the 1978 budget request because 1978 tree losses were lower than what had been predicted. The staff feels that we cannot rely on "good fortune" to get us thru the 1979 program.. • Alternatives for hauling trees 1. Lease a 30 yd. hauling truck (June-Sept.) Cost: $12,000-$3,000/month for 4 months Wihtages: Reliable hauling, increased hauling capacity 2 man crew could do the work instead of present 3 man crew, fuel far 1 vehicle instead of 3 trucks (approximate fuel costs for 25-30 gal/day (diesel) would only be $13.00-$16..00/day for fuel, compared to the present $30.00-$40.0Cfday. Disadvantages: Hauling of trees during the remainder of year using present equipment which is proving to be unreliable and expensive to repair. 2. Lease a 30 yd. hauling truck with a purchase option. Approximate Costs: 3 different approaches: .a. 1977 truck complete with prentice-loader - City would sell present - loader. 3 yr. lease - *$1,620/monnth - lease/purchase price $58,320 S yr. lease - *$1,050/month - lease/purchase price $63,000 • *NOTE: By selling current prentice it would reduce original price of truck $6,000-$8,000 and lower these monthly figures. b. New truck - City would have current prentice mounted en leased • truck. 3 yr. lease - $1,250/month - lease/purchase price $45,000 S yr. lease - $817/month- lease/purchase price $49,020 c. New truck - City would-have current prentice mounted on leased truck. Lease based on a percentage of new purchase price. 3 yr. lease - $1,025/month - lease/purrhnse price 3 yr. lease amount $36,4►O0 + 204 of base price 7.5MI Total t.I4,4wo 5 yr. lease - $710/month - Iease/purchase price " 5 yr. lease amount •$1=,00, • IS% of Imo price S.s•':. 1091 Total icy*,`J • -3- Advantages: Same as option 01 with the following additions; truck would be used year round vastly improving the tree program, City could sell the present prentice loader ($6,500-58,000) to defray expenses or mount current prontice on a leased truck, truck would be new, covered by manufacturers warranties. Disadvantages: City pays financial costs to benefit low yearly payments. 3. Purchase an older 30 yd. tree hauling truck Cost: $45,00-$50,000 X3Vintages: Basically the same as option •1, except that an available truck would probably be 5 or 6 years old. Disadvantages: The availability of good quality trucks is questionable...---- -- When the staff researched this option in the winter contractors were only only interested in selling trucks that were 5-6 years old which have questionable reliability. In addition most tree contractors which had. newer trucks also had contracts or bids which made them reluctant to sell their truck. 4. Purchase of a new truck with 30 yd. box. Cost: $3 8,0D0 for a truck with a box. $1,500 to remount current prentice on a new truck Total,$4' .,9O Advantages: Same as option 41' in addition the City would not pay financial charges (as in option 3). Truck would be used year-round, truck would be new and covered by manufacturers warranties. Disadvantages: Large expenditures in one year. The staff has envaluated the above alternatives and ranks them as fellows: t 1. #4 purchase of new truck 2. #2 lease/purchase of a truck 3. #1 lease truck for summer Accept- 4. f3 purchase of an older truck able FUNDING SOURCE For the past two years the tree program has operated with expenditures less than the appropriated budget. As a result of this the forestry program has $ 1,000 in unspent monies. This money has not been used primarily ho'e"ee the funding of the tree program comes from outside the levy limit and these funds can only be spent for special programs. ie. a tree disease program. RECOMMENDATIONS The staff requests the Council approve the use of approximatley $40,000 for the purchase of a now 30 yard truck to haul diseased trees (alternative 14) • SAF:md • Io • MEMORANDItal TO: Mayor and City Council THRU: Roger X.

SUMMARY STATEMENT ON EACH PROPOSAL Hockey Association of Eden Prairie - The Association's proposal has a great deal of merit if the City chooses not to continue the use of the facilities as a stable operation. If this were to happen, the Metropolitan Parks and Open Space Commission and the Metropolitan Council would have to approve this as and "interim use". We would not receive any regional funds for lights, hoards. etc. We would have to operate the arena as a public facility open to all group::. not exclusively Eden Prairie teams. • Rick and Lesie Hartmann - Although, the lartmann's didn't have time to get information'on the $1,000,000 liability insurance, and could propose a $5,ount bond, they have offered boarding services for six years and are experienced in horse business. However, they aro not as experienced as some of our other proposers in managing a public riding facility such as the Eden Prairie Stable. They are also planning on continuing their business on their um land "when we get a house purchased and the land fenced. This would not take more than one year." Therefore, their lease would probably not be a very long term deal and the City would be going through this process again in the near future. Sheril Wendling - Ms. Wendling simply did not provide sufficient information in her proposal for staff to make a comparative evaluation with the proposals. • Roger Bellow - Mr. Bedow'a proposal offers the most variety of recreationalexperience, however I do have some questions concerning the trail rides - there isn't sufficient acreage or trails to offer trail rides. • I think the hay rides, sleigh rides, pony rides, barn dances, bonfires, rtditu; lesson:; and animal farm would be a god use of the facility and would ceus,•rm to the original intended use. • flog • Eugene Doering - Mr. Doering's proposal offered the highest Iease amount - $555/month. This operation would be a typical commercial stable operation, offering boarding and English riding lessons. David E Trudy Bromley - The Bromley's proposal is similar to Mr. Doering's in that the stable would be run as a typical commercial operation, offering hoarding;, training of horses and riding lessons. They also would offer horse shows and clinics to the public on horse care. Vo-Tech - Hennepin County Vo-Tech has proposed to lease the stables to operate their equestrian programs. Prog`iams would include their seced Lary and post secondary horse care and stable operation program, also adult and community training in horse care and riding. They would also offer horse shows•of various kinds. ••. .- It is my feeling that it would be advantageous to the City to enter into a lease agreement with Hennepin County Vo-Tech for a number of reasons: 1. The school would be offering programs to a large number of people, rather than the typical horse operation that would only serve boarders and a limited number of persons taking lessons, 2. The programs would not only be riding lessons but also horse care and stable operation. This is also important for people that are interested in this form of recreation. 3. The use of the park facilities as a part of a school program is, in my opinion, more compatible than leasing the facility to compote with other commercial stables. 4. In my opinion the Vo-Tech would be a good lessee, and would attempt to upgrade the facility and assist the City in improving the grounds. If we would enter into a lease agreement with Vo-Tech, I would recommend the following delegation of responsibilities: • Indoor Arena and Box Stall Area - Roof repair and insulation repair caused by water damage - City - A water system for the stalls - Vo-Tech • - A septic system for the stall area - Vo-Tech - Heating and insulation of the arena - Vo-Tech - Completion of a tack room, locker room, toilets, classrooms, office, I.M.C. - Vo-Tech - Wash stall area - Vo-Tech - heating in box stall area - Vo-Tech Additional lighting in arena - Vo-Tech - All electrical brought up to code - City ' Stall Barn - Removal of tie stalls and construction of box stalls - fo-Tech - Plumbing, heating and electrical to code - Vo-Tech • 1' ". —9— Land Area is in need of: • Manure removal - City - Junk removal - City - Outdoor arena construction and location - To-Tech and City - Regrading - City - Paddock redesigned and graded - City I also feel that it is important that Ve-Tech would offer recreational services such as riding lessons to the public, both youth and adults, early in their. _. . lease period. I would also suggest that Vo-Tech consider offering hay and sleigh rides to the public as another recreational service. Any approvals on Vo-Tech*s part must be approved by their Board. 'They net on the 2nd Thursday of the month. They also would have to be ready for classes to begin by.July 1, 1979. • • • • • ea • MEMO • TO: Mayor Penzel and Members of the City Council THROUGH: Roger Ulstad, City Manager FROM: Carl &Ilia, City Engineer DATE: April 26, 1979 SUBJECT: Bids for Water Meters Upon further review of the twO bids received on April 12, 1979, for later • meters, it is recommended that'the bids be re3ected and that new bids be :2 ordered.

Braun Commissioner of Transportation SUBJECT : Proposed Legislation I am sure we are all aware of the very serious revenue shortage which today faces state and local road authorities throughout Minnesota.. This shortage is being felt just as acutely at the county and mnnaci- pal levels as at the state level. It is most urgent that additional revenue be made available for road purposes and that such revenues be shared by state and local government. The enclosed report briefly describes the funding crises brought about by inflation and presents an approach which would provide badly needed additional revenue in what we believe is a fair and equitable manner. The proposal, titled the Consumer Price Indexed Fuel Tax, would tie the motor fuel tax to the consumer price index. Governor Quie sup- ports this proposal and it has substantial legislative support as well. You may be particularly interested in the table listing the amount of .."- -- additional revenue which would accrue to each county and municipality in the State under this proposal. We urgently need your active support during the upcoming weeks as the Consumer Price Indexed Fuel Tax is considered by the state legislature. I am convinced that local support for the proposal would enhance chances for its passage tremendously. Cnnta.•t your local representa- tive and enlist his/her support for the bill. -- r1_V)14 44A- Richard P.

The Consumer Price Indexed (CPI) Fuel Tax Proposal The CPI, developed by the U.S. Department of Labor, is a statistical measure of the average change in prices for a fixed "market basket" of goods and services. The CPI is prepared for 28 different metropolitan areas throughout the United States. It is proposed that,the CPI for the Twin Cities metropolitan area be used for index- ing fuel taxes in the State of Minnesota. The CPI fuel tax should be adjusted on an annual basis and be based upon changes in the CPI during a preceding 12 month period. The per gallon tax on fuel should be adjusted to the nearest tenth of a cent. For administrative simplicity, the fuel tax should be applied only at the wholesale level as it is today. A floor of 9 cents per gallon should be established. All changes in the cents per gallon tax should be cal- culated using a base rate per gallon of 9 cents. . The initial tax adjustment should take place on June 1, 1979 and be based on the changes in the CPI from January 1978 to February 1979. After the initial adjustment, all subsequent fuel tax adjustments should be implemented on June 1 and be based on the change in the CPI during the previous February to February period. As an example, an increase of 10 percent in the CPI would result in a 10 percent increase in the motor fuel tax. Based on today's 9 cent per gallon tax, the increase would be 0.9 cents per gallon resulting in a total State fuel tax of 9.9 cents per gallon. Analysis indicates that trends in highway construction costs closely parallel changes in the CPI as shown on the next page. Linking the motor fuel tax to the CPI instead of directly to the highway construction cost index has the advantage of pro- viding a more stable revenue source, without the cyclical and sometimes sudden fluc- tuations which occur in construction costs. Since increases in construction costs would not bring automatic increases in revenue, an incentive would be provided to /heconstru'etion industry not to exceed the general rate of inflation. HISTORICAL TRENDS TWIN CITY CONSUMER PRICE INDEX AND HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION COST INDEX FOR MINNESOTA 250 • too— Iso— • TWIN CITY CONSUMER PRICE INDEX �I MIMES A HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION INDEX Ben YON I967:100 SO 1940 HMS 1950 M58 1960 1946 1070 1975 1060 An additional advantage of the CPI motor fuel tax is that it would be essentially "self-policing" because a CPI motor fuel tax is not likely to result in windfall reve- nues. CPI revenues would tend to increase during times of inflation and remain stable or decrease during deflationary periods, therefore, additional controls in the form.of__. tax rate ceilings or other constraints should not be needed. Since the CPI fuel tax would only keep pace with the general rate of inflation and not exceed it, such a tax should not significantly increase inflationary pressures. It is proposed that the CPI fuel tax be implemented effective June 1, 1979 with January 1978 and February a tax rate adjustment based on changes in the CPI between 1979 is 1979. The estimated change in the CPI between January 1978 and February 9.3%. This is based on the actual change in the CPI between January 1978 and Jan- uary 1979 and a projection for February 1979. A 9.3% increase in the CPI would re- suit in a,tax of 9.8 cents per gallon on June 1, 1979. Under this alternative, the estimated additional revenue during the 1980-81 biennium would total 538.0 mil- iii lion to the State, $16.5 million to the Counties and $5.1 million to the Cities. Estimated additional revenues for FY 1981-85, based upon a projected 7% annual in- crease in the CPI and a 2% annual in.-Amass in fuel consumption, are presented be- low.

The attached appendix presents a detailed breakdown of the additional revenues which would accrue to each of the states, counties and municipalities during FY 1980-85 as a result of the CPI fuel tax. All calculations are based on 1979 CSAH and P3A6 Ap- portionment factors. Distribution of the CSAH and MSAS funds among the counties and municipalities may change as factors in the apportionment formula change.
