KRISTIE LANE
Synopsis: Residents spoke at open podium at the City Council Meeting on August
19, 2014, regarding the condition of the property at 19184 Kristie Lane. The
Council directed the City Attorney to present, at the next Council meeting, findings
that the property conditions constitute public nuisances and ordering abatement.
The attached Resolution declares the code violations and property conditions at
19184 Kristie Lane public nuisances, orders abatement, and authorizes the City
Attorney to proceed with an action in District Court if the public nuisances are not
abated.
Background Information
The property at 19184 Kristie Lane has been vacant for over two year. The owner
has informed the City that it has abandoned the property but the mortgagee has not
begun a foreclosure action. The mortgagee has hired a management company to
maintain the property. City staff is aware of the situation and has issued a citation
for code violations on the property. City staff has also been in contact with the
management company; however, no action has been taken to abate the various
property conditions. The City has received multiple complaints from residents
regarding the condition of the property. The City Attorney sent a letter to the
property owner, mortgagee, and management company on August 22, 2014,
outlining the code violations and property conditions and informing them that if
they were not abated the City Council would consider this matter at its September 2,
2014 meeting.
MOTION: Move to adopt the Resolution declaring public nuisances at
19184 Kristie Lane, ordering abatement, and authorizing the City
Attorney to proceed with an action in District Court if the public
nuisances are not abated.

AREA,AND ADOPTING FINDINGS
B. ADOPT RESOLUTION HRA NO. 2014-02 SELECTING A DEVELOPER,
APPROVING PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE PROJECT AREA AND
ESTABLISHING TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR THE HOUSING
DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
Getschow said the project has been through the land use process at the Council
level and is on tonight's Council agenda for second reading. The City through the
HRA will execute a purchase agreement for the property; however, the ownership
by the HRA would be very brief. The HRA would acquire the property from
MnDOT and then immediately sell the property to Eden Gardens, LLC. We need to
hold a public hearing and then take action on the project and the parameters of the
project regarding the moderate income requirements and the green elements of the
project. He noted the Council has been discussing the project for one to two years.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Butcher Wickstrom moved, seconded by Nelson, to close the public
hearing; to adopt Resolution HRA No. 2014-01 determining to carry out a Housing

Development Project(the "Project"), identifying the project area and adopting
findings; to adopt Resolution HRA No. 2014-02 approving purchase and sale of the
project area and establishing terms and conditions for the Project; and to authorize
the Mayor and City Manager to execute the Purchase Agreement, Housing Project
Agreement and such other documents as are necessary to consummate the
transaction.
Commenting on the deferral of park dedication fees for moderate income buyers,
Case said conservation easements seem to fall away as time goes by. He asked how
we would ensure this stays known to future owners. Rosow replied we would need
to set up a tracking system to track ownership and sale of the property. There are
built-in protections because the housing agreement that contains these restrictions
will be filed against the property. The bank financing a purchase will note the
agreement and will make sure the mortgage falls ahead of those requirements. Case
asked if the increase caused by the deferred park dedication fees might interfere
with the sale. Rosow said whoever is providing the financing will need to obtain
confirmation from the City that the fee is either not due or is included in the closing
statement. They would require a sign-off from the City.
Rosow said these documents and those included on the Council agenda state that if
we don't close by August 31 all the approvals are null and void. Eden Garden's
attorneys are concerned the mylars of the plat may not come back from Hennepin
County in time to make the drop-dead date. Rosow suggested the drop-dead date in
all the approvals be changed to September 12.
AMENDMENT TO THE MOTION: Butcher Wickstrom moved, seconded by
Nelson, to extend the drop-dead dates in the documents from August 31 to
September 12. Motion carried 4-0.
VOTE ON THE MOTIONS AS AMENDED: Motion carried 4-0.
IV. ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. HRA 2014-03 APPROVING ISSUANCE OF A
REVENUE BOND UNDER MINN. STAT. CHAP. 462C TO REFINANCE A
MULTIFAMILY HOUSING DEVELOPMENT FOR THE BENEFIT OF CASTLE
RIDGE APARTMENTS, LLC
Getschow said in 2004 the City issued a note for$8,000,000 as conduit financing for the
acquisition by Castle Ridge Apartments, LLC of a 227-unit multifamily housing facility.
They are refinancing and need the City to approve refinancing of the revenue bond. This
will also need revision of the ordinance by the City Council. The City has been a part of
the refunding and financing, but because the City has hit its limit of$1,000,000 of
qualified debt, the HRA is taking the action.
There were no comments from the audience.
MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Nelson, to close the public hearing and to adopt

housing development; approving the form of and authorizing the execution and delivery of

I. JOINT MEETING WITH EDEN PRAIRIE SCHOOL BOARD
Council Member Aho was absent. Getschow said he and Superintendent Tryggestad met earlier to
discuss topics to be covered at the joint workshop, and that the list would be taken in order.
School District Referendum
Tryggestad said there will be two questions on the November 4 general election ballot. The first
question is a sustaining question, and would allow the district to maintain where they are today for
the next five years. If the referendum passes, the district expects to be able to reduce class sizes and
better prepare students for successful highs school experiences. Math and reading specialists will be
added for grade 2 through 6. The second question, which adds $150 per year per pupil, is dependent
upon approval of the first question. For the median value home, question 1 would have an $8 per
month tax impact, and question 2 would have a$5 per month impact. If the questions fail, the
district would need to make an immediate 11 percent reduction in its budget. Tryggestad said that
would be catastrophic for the district. Jacobus said a volunteer committee rally kick-off is scheduled
for this Thursday.
City Levy/Tax
Getschow said the proposed 2015 budget increase is approximately 1.8 percent. This translates into a
levy increase of about 2.5 percent; however, the overall city rate will decrease. The preliminary
budget will go to the Council for approval at the September 2 meeting.

Tassel Program
Tryggestad said the district has been searching for a home for the Tassel Program for more than five
years. The program serves 18-to 21-year-old students with special needs by providing skills needed
to lead productive lives. These students currently receive services through District 287. The school
district has increased the amount of space they lease in the lower level of the City Center building,
which is being remodeled to bring the program in-house this fall.
Rec Programs/Aquatic Center Expansion
Lotthammer provided an update on construction of the Community Center Aquatic Expansion
project. He said the walls for Phase I are scheduled to go up shortly. Two eight-lane pools are being
constructed, with audience seating for 300. One pool will be for competitive swimming, and the
other is a zero-depth warm pool suitable for youth swimming lessons. Also included in the project is
a hot tub, new family changing rooms and expanded group fitness space. Construction is expected to
be completed by early 2016.
Southwest LRT
Ellis said four of five cities and Hennepin County have granted municipal consent. Minneapolis is
scheduled to vote on municipal consent on August 29. Next steps are approval of the project by the
FTA, and a two-year design process that will include a lot of public engagement. Construction could
start in 2016, with the line being operational in 2019. Eden Prairie is slated to have five stations,
with the first station located at Mitchell Road.
Business Climate/Tax Base
Getschow said there is a boom in construction in all sectors. Several single-family home
developments are under construction, as well as the City's first apartment complex in 10 years.
United Health Group is also under construction on Shady Oak Road. Getschow said the City
expects 2014 to be the third year in a row for record development revenue.
II. OPEN PODIUM
Tom Klein—Kristie Lane Abandoned Property
Klein, a resident of Kristie Lane, was joined by several neighbors. He presented a petition
outlining concerns about a vacant home on Kristie Lane. The group believes the home
poses potential health and environmental hazards due to water damage from a broken
water main. The owner has not lived in the home for several years, and has not responded
to a City order to correct several items that are in violation of City Code. Klein asked the
City Council to take whatever action is necessary to address the problems on the
property. City Attorney Rosow said the City Council could declare the house a public
nuisance, which would require the homeowner and/or the mortgagor to respond. If there
is no response, the City could ask the courts to uphold the declaration of the house as a
nuisance. Council Member Case said he is in favor of taking this type of action because
the house is clearly a hazard. Getschow said staff will draft a resolution declaring the

1. Adopt Resolution No. 2014-79 Authorizing Acquisition of 11201 Burr
Ridge Lane
Ellis said this property was declared a hazardous building, demolished, and
removed by the City. The City now seeks to acquire the property to
construct a storm sewer system and to stabilize and repair soils. After
negotiations by and between the City Attorney's office and the attorney for
the owners of the property, the City Attorney's office recommends the City
purchase the property for$450,000.00 in exchange for a full and final release
and waiver of any and all claims the owners of the property have, or may
have, against the City.
MOTION: Butcher Wickstrom moved, seconded by Nelson, to adopt
Resolution No. 2014-79 authorizing execution of the negotiated Settlement
Agreement, Release, and Waiver and other documents necessary to
conclude the acquisition of 11201 Burr Ridge Lane for$450,000. Motion
carried 4-0.
2. Establishment of Slow-No Wake Restrictions
Tyra-Lukens noted this is an issue that Council Member Aho brought up at a
previous Council meeting.
Ellis said at the last Council meeting we had been going through a period of
extensive rain events which prompted the discussion about establishing an
ordinance in order to have a more rapid response to such conditions in the
future. We have been working with the DNR on the process necessary to
draft an ordinance. The process would include our holding a public hearing
and then sending a transcript of public comment to the DNR along with the
proposed ordinance. The DNR would make a determination if they supported
the ordinance. If they supported the ordinance, we would then be able to
come back through the normal process of our first and second readings.
When water levels rose above the high water levels established by the DNR
for every lake in the State, there would be an automatic no-wake restriction
placed on the lakes included in the ordinance. If there is interest in moving
forward, staff would come back at a future City Council meeting with the
proposed ordinance and the Council would host a public meeting. He noted
staff recommends looking at restrictions for Bryant Lake, Staring Lake and
Lake Riley only.
Case asked if we have statutory authority over Riley. Ellis said we would
need to enact an ordinance similar to that of Chanhassen's. Case noted the
main damage of boats to the shorelines from high water conditions occurs to
private property around the lakes, and Staring does not have such a situation
with private property. Ellis said Riley and Bryant would be the focus of our
attention,but Staring Lake has the potential to be a destination as the water
quality improves. Case said he would be in favor of drafting such an
ordinance.
Tyra-Lukens said we heard from residents around Bryant Lake who wanted
something done, and this would provide an instrument we could use to
respond more quickly.

COUNTY OF HENNEPIN)
Tom Klein does state as follows:
1. I am a resident of the City of Eden Prairie with an address of 7581 Debbie Lane, Eden Prairie,
MN 55346.
2. As such, I am in close proximity to the property located at 19184 Kristie Lane ("Property").
3. As a neighbor I have had significant opportunity to observe the Property. Over the last several
years I have observed the following conditions on the Property:
a. Water pipes have burst pouring over 331,000 gallons of water within a 3 month time
period into the basement from upper floors resulting in what looks like significant
visible mold throughout the first floor of the structure. According to the City of Eden
Prairie Public Works department staff person that I spoke with stated that the typical
water usage for this home is in the 20,000 gallon range for a 3 month time period. The
staff of the city of Eden Prairie Public Works department can document these water
usage rates.
b. As of today, electricity is on in the house that, to the best of my knowledge, has had
neither emergency services nor electrical renovations after the localized flooding;
thereby creating the perception of several apparently unmitigated, ongoing and
increasing dangerous risks: namely the unchecked growth of mold/mildew and of
electrical corrosion leading to a heightened fire risk.
c. A neighbor informed me of seeing people entering the home through the locked front
door who have been observed wearing hazardous gear clothing, evidencing their
heightened concern of the hazardous condition of the home. Another neighbor
observed seeing other people entering the home through the locked front door without
hazardous gear clothing.
d. The oak flooring and subflooring has buckled in several places.
e. The ceiling on the first floor is collapsing.
f. A broken exterior window has been covered with plywood for over a year.
g. There are holes in the exterior of the structure.
h. The deck and deck railing have rotted.
i. The exterior paint is not up to code.
j. There is tall grass and weeds on the property.
k. A neighbor informed me that he observed an animal entering the structure.
4. These conditions on the Property have affected my use and enjoyment of my property. I am
concerned about the appearance of the property, the stability of the structure, the access to it by
animals, the mold and the various other ongoing safety risks for neighbors - and for anyone else
who enters the property.

Introduction
This document summarizes the City Manager recommended 2015 operating budget and tax
levy as of September 2nd, 2014. The City Council will be asked to approve the 2015
proposed budget and tax levy at the September 2nd meeting.
At the July 14th workshop, the total budget increase was 2.1%. This was reduced to 1.9%
due to a reduction in the amount budgeted for debt payments and tax abatement. Cash on
hand reduced the budget for the 2008 equipment certificates and issuance costs were less
than budgeted for the 2014A tax abatement bonds.
The net tax levy changed from a 2.7% increase to a 2.4% increase. The City received the
final fiscal disparity distribution amount from the County. The 2014 amount was
$1,591,885 and the 2015 amount is $1,611,314. This reduced the net tax levy by.1%. Also,
staff was able to reduce the debt levy and tax abatement levy as noted in the previous
paragraph. This reduced the levy.2%.
The City of Eden Prairie prepares a two year budget and 2015 is the second year of the two
year budget. Preparing a two year budget provides for improved planning and reduced
staff time. For the second year budget, the City must follow State guidelines and formally
adopt the second year budget and tax levy in 2014 for 2015.
In preparing the 2014/2015 budget during 2013, the budget process started in January of

Legislative Impacts
The state Legislature passed legislation in the tax bill and pension bill that has a financial
impact to the City.
Tax Bill-Sales Tax Exemption Expanded
A sales tax exemption for cities and counties was implemented beginning with purchases
made on or after Jan. 1, 2014. It included most taxable purchases but did not include
purchases of goods or services generally provided by a private business such as a liquor
store or a health and fitness center.
The 2014 legislation expanded the sales tax exemption to health and fitness centers. This
change was effective on July 1, 2014. For the 2015 budget, the City will save approximately
$78,000.
Levy certification deadline extended
The legislature passed an extension in the annual deadline for counties and cities to certify
their proposed levies. Under the change, the date to certify the proposed levy was moved
from Sept. 15 to Sept. 30. This change was proposed by several metropolitan cities that
wanted more time to analyze the effects of the fiscal disparities program on their local
property tax levies.
The date was not moved back for the HRA so the date to certify a preliminary levy is still
Sept 15.

Pension Bill- Police and Fire Pension Plan
The Pension Bill increases the employer contribution rates for the Police and Fire Pension
Plan by 1.8-percent, phased in over two years beginning in 2014. This takes the employer
contributions from the present 14.4 percent of salary to 16.2 percent. Other benefit
changes for the Police and Fire Plan include the following:
• Increasing active members' contributions by 1.2 percent of salary, phased in over
two years beginning in 2014. Thus, the current contribution rate of 9.6 percent
would increase to 10.2 percent in 2014, and 10.8 percent in 2015;
• Increasing vesting for members enrolled in the plan after June 2014 to 50 percent
after 10 years of service, and increasing 5 percent each year thereafter until fully
vested after 20 years of service;
• Setting benefit recipients' annual increases at 1 percent until the plan is back to
being 90-percent funded; and
• Delaying the first retirement increase paid to new retirees for three years (two
years beyond current law).
This change increases the 2015 budget by$58,904.
Pension Bill-Coordinated Plan
The Pension Bill also changed the rates at which employees and employers contribute to
the PERA Coordinated Plan. Beginning with pay received on or after Jan. 1, 2015,
employees will contribute a total of 6.5% of pay and employers 7.5% of pay. This is an
increase, in both cases, of
0.25%. This change increases the 2015 budget by$22,617.

Preliminary Tax Base and Tax Impacts
The ability to levy and collect taxes is based on property market values, tax capacities and
City tax rates. Changes in Market Value, Net Tax Capacity and the City Tax Rate since 2012
are shown below.
2012 2013 2014 2015
Market Value $8.7 Billion $8.5 Billion $8.6 Billion $9.0 Billion
Adjusted Net Tax Capacity $88,510,928 $86,172,400 $88,133,724 $92,577,764
City Tax Rate 33.04% 34.39% 34.47% 33.78%
For 2015, the median value home in Eden Prairie is valued at $334,300 reflecting an
average value increase of 5.05%. In 2014, the median value was $317,850. Commercial
properties have an average value decrease of.7%, and apartments a value increase of 5.0%.
Below summarizes the City's tax impact for residential, apartment, and commercial
properties. Please keep in mind that this information may change before December. We do
not have the final captured tax increment yet and other values are also subject to change.
The County is still finalizing payable 2015 data.
PropertyType 2013/2014 2014/2015 Difference%Change
Residential ($334,300) $ 1,107 $ 1,139 $ 32 2.9%
Apartment($5M) $ 21,111 $ 21,616 $ 505 2.4%
Commercial ($2M) $ 8,768 $ 8,489 $ (279) (3.2%)
Staff has calculated that a $314,000 change in the tax levy will impact the median value
home by 1% or $11.00.

Debt Levy
Debt Ratios
From 2015, debt payments supported by the tax levy are projected to remain
approximately 6 to 7 percent of the General Fund budget. Moody's Investors Service
considers tax levies that are 5 to 15 percent of the General Fund budget to be moderate
debt burdens on taxpayers.
Moody's Investors Service assigned a rating of Aaa to the City of Eden Prairie's bond issue
in 2003, the highest rating from Moody's. The bond rating was affirmed in 2014 for the
City's outstanding general obligation debt. The City maintained the bond rating in 2014 due
to Eden Prairie's substantial and diverse tax base, strong financial operations, and low debt
burden. Of the 854 cities in Minnesota, there are only 14 rated Aaa by Moody's Investors
Service. Nationally, less than 7 percent of municipalities are rated Aaa by Moody's.
In 2014 Standard & Poor's assigned a rating of AAA to the City of Eden Prairie's bonds.
This is the highest rating from Standard & Poor's. The rating is attributed to the City's
• Very strong economy,
• Very strong budgetary flexibility, with budget reserves,
• Strong budgetary performance,
• Very strong liquidity,
• Strong management conditions, with policies that are good, and
• Strong debt driven mostly by low overall net debt and rapid debt amortization.
For 2015, the 2009 equipment certificates (Police and Fire software upgrade) tax levy is
decreasing, as these bonds were structured to have decreasing debt payments. The 2009
Fire Station facility bonds (Fire Station #1) will be paid off in 2014. The 2012B bonds
replace the 2006 SouthWest Fire Station bonds that were refinanced.

Total $40,624,594 $41,597,466 $972,872 2.4%
The 2015 budget maintains service levels. About half of the increase or 1.2% is due to
wages and benefits. The remainder is related to small changes in many different line items
in the budget. Detailed information on the significant wage and benefit changes can be
found below.
General Fund Detailed Information
Wages
Wages are increasing 2.6 percent in 2015. This includes a 2.25-percent base increase, step
increases, and performance pay.
When preparing the budget for wages, staff looks at trends within the local private sector
labor market and our local government peer group. Our proposed 2.25-percent increase is
modest and in line with both private sector and peer city compensation trends.
Despite persistent concern about the strength of our economic recovery, the private sector
labor market has seen gains between 2 and 3 percent annually since 2010. This is largely
due to the continued high demand for skilled workers. The City cannot expect that these
13
highly competitive employees will remain in place if their wages stagnate in our
organization,while the overall labor market continues to show modest gains.
The City also needs to look at our individual compensation ranges to ensure they are
aligned internally with our pay plan and externally with other cities and private sector
firms. A Compensation Study was conducted in 2012 to determine how we compare to the
private sector as well as our peer public sector cities. The results of this study showed that
Eden Prairie wages are aligned with other organizations but we must continue to provide
similar increases as the private sector and our peer public sector cities to remain
competitive.
PERA
The City pays Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA) benefits for all eligible
employees. Generally all full-time and part-time employees who earn more than $5,100 a
year are PERA eligible. The City currently contributes 7.25 percent of salary for the PERA
coordinated plan. This is increasing to 7.50 percent of salary beginning January 1, 2015.
This added an additional $22,617 to the 2015 budget. For the police and fire plan, the City
contributes 15.3 percent of salary. For 2015, the contribution will increase to 16.2 percent.
The increase in the contribution rate is adding an additional $58,904 in 2015 to the General
Fund Budget.
Health Insurance
Health insurance expenditures remain flat for 2015. Health insurance premiums increased
5% in 2015. This increase was offset by a decrease in the onetime initial contribution to
employee HRA/HSA accounts and changes in the affordable care act program fees.
Conclusion
This document is intended to provide information on the proposed 2015 City of Eden
Prairie budget as of September 2nd, 2014. If you have any questions, please let us know.
