City Council Minutes -3- April 20, 1982
IV. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. LAKE EDEN CARRIAGE HOMES by Zachman Homes , Inc. Request to rezone and pre-
liminary plat 8.7 acres from Rural to RM 2.5 which land is part of the Edenvale
South Planned Unit Development (PUD 73-11. ) Included with the zoning are vari-
ances for setbacks and the use of wood as an exterior material . Located north
of Anderson Lakes Parkway and east of Darnel Road (Ordinance No. 82-06 - rezoning;
and Resolution No. 82-51 - preliminary plat) Continued from April 6, 1982
Steve Ryan, spokesman for Zachman Homes , Inc. , said he had met with Lake Eden
area residents ' representatives and an agreement had been reached as to the
color of the siding. He noted the parking had been revised and there are now
202 spaces as opposed to 148 in the original plan; 41 of these are "expansion
stalls" and will be constructed if and when the need is realized. The Darnel
acess was redesigned to create- a 140' separation between the public street
and the private street and eliminates the conflict with the Daluge driveway.
Edstrom asked if anyone has addressed the question of turning lanes on Ander-
son Lakes Parkway. Director of Public Works Dietz said there could be room
for turn lanes, if they are necessary; there is as much flexibility as one
would need.
k
Tangen inquired as to whom is responsible for deciding when expansion spaces
are necessary. Planning Director Enger said the Developer's Agreement provides
for this situation in two ways: either the owners of the property would provide
for the additional parking when they felt it necessary or the City would sign
the adjacent streets to force the construction of additional parking. The in-
clination would be for the homeowner' s association to take care of this situation
on its own.
Willard Daluge, 8785 Darnel , felt the interior road should be a cul -de-sac.
He expressed concern as to how snow removal would be handled because the in-
terior road will be a private road.
Michael Furst, 8693 Darnel Road, noted much of the access to homes in Ridgewood
is via Darnel Road. He expressed concern that this development might, be marketed
in a sale/lease back manner in which event they would not be necessarily owner
occupied. He asked that the plan be looked at very carefully and be referred
back to the Planning Commission for further study,
Bob Lamoreaux, 8905 Darnel Road, asked about the need for a variance when the
wood siding turned out to be aluminum. Enger explained that under Ordinance
135 the City has been advised by its Attorney that it is most appropriate to
detail the variances. It was thought from looking at the plans that the siding
in this project was wood; the variance is not so much specifically to wood but
to anything other than brick.
Furst stated at the last meeting it was said in order to qualify for this type
of home a $50,000 annual income was necessary. He said this was incorrect, it
would be more like $35,000.

City Council Minutes -4- April 20, 1982
Dick Feerick, 6518 Leesborough Avenue, said he has watched Ryan's presentations
and the manner in which he has worked with City Staff and neighborhood residents
and wished the record to reflect that Ryan has done a fair and honest job.
Lamoreaux asked how the expansion parking funding would be set up. Penzel ex-
plained how a homeowner's association works . Lamoreaux said he would hate to
see "No Parking" signs along Darnel Road.
Barb Hopson, 8770 Darnel Road, further questioned the internal parking. Penzel
said those things included in the Developer's Agreement are legally binding.
Ryan went on to explain the types of financing which might be used noting
Zachman is attempting to facilitate first time home buyers through creative
financing. He stated the aluminum siding to be used is supposed to be main-
tenance free for forty years. Ryan explained the pros and cons of the various
alternative access points on Darnel Road and the reason for the point selected.
Edstrom asked where snow will be "stored. " Ryan said on the east side of the
development at the end of driveways so it will melt towards the pond.
i
Furst related methods of financing with which he was familiar. Terry Mahoney, a
sales manager for Zachman, said the methods of financing they use are used in
other areas of the country. Redpath asked if it should be the concern of the
Council ; it is an issue the Council has not concerned itself with in past
developments. _
Furst expressed concern about snow being dumped near the pond. Dietz explained
this pond is really just a pot hole and was intended to be used in this manner
as a silt trap for waste water. The storm drainage system drains into this
ponding area.

Sam Hopson, 8770 Darnel Road, would like Zachman to install a privacy fence
along the property line which separates his property from Zachman's property.
Ryan said Zachman would be willing to remove the berm and put in a privacy
fence. Hopson said a fence would keep children from playing in his backyard.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Bentley, to close the Public Hearing and
to give 1st Reading to Ordinance 82-06, rezoning 8.7 acres from Rural to RM 2.5.
Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to direct Staff to draft the
Developer's Agreement incorporating comments and recommendations included in
the Staff Report of February 17, 1982; and those comments made this evening
including a provision for additional parking, consideration of on-site dis-
posal of snow along the east side of the development. The question of a fence
along the northerly lot line is referred to Staff for appropriate action prior
to 2nd Reading of the Ordinance. Motion carried unanimously.
Tangen noted the developer has made a good attempt and has made every effort
he could to appease everyone.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Bentley, to adopt Resolution No. 82-51 ,
approving the preliminary plat of Lake Eden Carriage Homes . Motion carried
unanimously.
City Council Minutes -5- April 20, 1982
B. Feasibility Report for Martin Drive Drainage Improvements, I .C. 52-007
Resolution No. 82-64 - continued from April 6, 1982
Director of Public Works Dietz spoke to the expansion of the project whereby
a pipe would be extended south of Martin Drive. This would increase the cost
from $327. 16 per acre to $1319. 16 per acre. Dietz said he felt this would
deem the project not feasible. Dietz showed yearly cost summaries , as re-
quested by the Council , for several properties.
Redpath asked that the same problem not occur on the property to the south
as has occurred on the Lane property. Dietz said the City had not received
any easements for the ditch on the Lane property; easements will be insisted
upon on the Equitable property.
Dick Kast, Metro Machine, 8001 Wallace Road, read a letter from his company's
attorney in which he expressed an opinion on the assessment in regard to
benefitting properties. City Attorney Pauly concurred that it all comes down
to a matter of benefit.
Jack Humphries, representing Equitable , felt there is only one benefitting
property owner and that is the petitioner. He stated the problem is a result
of the parking lot having been built too close to the ditch.
Bentley noted the water that goes though that ditch comes from adjacent sites.
The size of the ditch is necessitated by the upstream flow of water. The problem
rests with the amount of water that has to flow through there and that comes Fro.M.
lots other than those immediately adjacent to the ditch.
ry.
M. E. "Skip" Lane, petitioner', added that the ditch is also a safety hazard,
Pauly stated one of the theories in assessing upstream property owners is that,
while they may have natural rights to have their waters flow down hill , the fact
is that by developing their properties it usually results in a greater flow of
water flowing down hill than that to which they have a right;and therefore it is
appropriate to find benefit to those upstream property owners.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Tangen, to close the Public Hearing and
to adopt Resolution No. 82-64, ordering plans and specifications for. Martin
Drive drainage improvements , I. C. 52-007. Motion passed unanimously.
C. PAX CHRISTI ADDITION by Pax Christi Catholic Community, Request for Planned
Unit Development approval of multiple residential , open space and a church site
upon a total area of 40 acres, and preliminary plat approval to divide the 40
acres into 3 lots. Located north of County Road 1, south of Purgatory Creek and
east of Creekwood and Pleasant Hill Cemetery. CResolution No, 82--69 -- PUD, and
Resolution No. 82-80 —.preliminary plat)
Jim Hill , representing Pax Christi Catholic Community, introduced Father Tim
Power, Bill Herbert, and Dick Feerick. Hill spoke to the proposal and the
requests before the Council . Feerick also addressed the proposal ,
City Council Minutes -6- April 20, 1982
v
Planning Director Enger noted the Planning Commission had discussed this pro-
posal at its March 22, 1982, meeting at which time it voted to recommend approval
of the PUD concept subject to the conditions contained in the March 18, 1982,
Staff Report as well as the additions noted in the Minutes of the March 22nd
meeting. The motion to recommend approval of the preliminary plat was defeated
by a vote of 3-2.
Director of Community Services Lambert stated the Parks, Recreation & Natural
Resources Commission had reviewed this proposal at its April 5, 1982 , meeting
and had recommended approval subject to the conditions contained in the March
22, 1982, Staff Report and further conditions as outlined in the April 5th
Minutes.
Edstrom asked what moving the wetland would entail . Lambert said they are
proposing to move it further to the west by about 50 feet.
Penzei stated he has a problem with the rationale for a density transfer from
a church site and wondered what justifies this sort of transfer. Hill said The
Preserve had shown 250 dwelling units and some commercial on this site in their
plan. The City's Guide Plan shows this as low density residential . Penzei
said that might have been The Preserve's concept but it had never come before
the Council with that plan. Enger said the City has not had a situation like
this in the past. Feerick said they are in no way proposing a certain number
of units, but rather they are showing what might be done and what type of
density might be considered. They also are attempting to try to tie together
a difficult piece of property. Penzel said he remains uncomfortable with the
density transfer situation. Bentley said he could go along with PUD concept
approval at this time but does not see justification for the density transfer.
Steve Hill , 9559 Woodridge Circle, Creekwood homeowner whose property is
adjacent to this development, said he agrees with the overall use, but
expressed his concern with the density. He stated he is unclear as to what
will happen to the wetland -- would not like to see it any closer to his
property that it presently is. Jim Hill said this is not a protected wetland;
it was suggested this wetland could be used as a tradeoff whereby by moving the
wetland west, a portion of the eastern part of the wetland could be used for
housing.
Don Bell , 9561 Woodridge Circle, stated the wetland in question is a settling
basin for Purgatory Creek.
Steve Hill noted the grade of the wetland is such that moving it west could not
be accomplished without significant regrading. Feerick said they had expressed
their willingness to work this out with the neighbors.
Redpath asked if any thought had been given to building the church on the
middle lot and putting housing on the lot abutting Pioneer Trail . Father
Power said they would have problems with parking if the church were not built
on the flat portion of the property as they will need about 4 acres for parking
because their sanctuary will seat about 1300 people.
City Council Minutes -7- April 20, 1982
Don Redinius, 9524 Woodridge Circle, said it seems that Creekwood residents
are faced with high density residential proposals on all sides of them and
must come before the Council to voice their opposition. Bentley said it is
no longer economically feasible for developers to build low density single
family housing as was the case just a few years ago. Redinius asked that
diligent planning be used and noted that the Hillsborough and Orin Thompson
developments south of Creekwood are selling well . Tangen stated because of
the terrain single family may not be feasible.
Pat Bell , 9561 Woodridge Circle, asked about the extension of Homeward Hills
Road and upgrading of County Road 1. Penzel said there is no known improvement
planned for County Road 1 at this time. Homeward Hills Road has no improvements
scheduled, but the plan is to have it extended concurrent with Phase I of con-
struction of the church.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Tangen, to close the Public Hearing and
to adopt Resoluticn No. 82-69, approving the Pax Christi Catholic Church
Planned Unit Development amending the Guide Plan. Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Rcdpath moved, seconded by Tangen, to defer action on the preliminary
plat until there is a request to rezone the property. Motion carried unanimously.
D. YEAR VII. C. D. B. G. Transfer funds from Project 009 to Year VIII Cummins-
Grill House Restoration (Resolution No. 82-59)
City Manager Jullie stated action on this resolution would shift $10,000 from
year VII to year VIII for reroofing of the Cummins-Grill House.
MOTION: Edstrom moved, seconded by Bentley, to close the Public Hearing and
to adopt Resolution No. 82-59, requesting Hennepin County to transfer C.D.B.G.
funds from Project #009 to Year. VIII Cummins-Grill Restoration Site Improvement.
Motion carried unanimously.
E. TITUS ROAD VACATION north of West 78th Street. (Resolution No. 82-76)
Director of Public Works Dietz explained the property owner is asking' for
this vacation in exchange for temporary easements which are necessary for
the Schooner Boulevard project. The owner feels the vacation of Titus Road
will give the owners more flexibility in planning their site which is presently
platted but unzoned.
Bill Herbert, attorney for the Pension and Profit Sharing Trust of Independent
Millwork Incorporated, owners of the property, said they are unwilling at this
time to commit to a connection between West 78th Street and Leona Road. They
do realize that this is a probability when this parcel comes before the City
when developed.
Edstrom asked the purpose of the temporary easements. Dietz said they are
needed for grading and slope easements.
MOTION: Tangen moved, seconded by Edstrom, to close the Public Hearing, and
to adopt Resolution No. 82-76, calling for the vacation of Titus Road north
of West 78th Street. Motion carried unanimously.
City Council Minutes -8- April 20, 1982
III. H. Request from Canterbury Restaurant, Inc. (Chester's) for a liquor license.
` Located at 7765 Mitchell Road.
Penzel stated the City has a total of 12 liquor licenses presently available.
The concern is that this number will not be adequate for future development
since five have already been authorized.
Redpath said he felt it unfair not to issue a license to a . business .which has
been in the community for a few years when one might possibly be issued to a
restaurant just beginning.
Tangen asked if there will be any other establishments in the community wanting
a liquor license in the near future . Several possibilities were named.
Penzel noted this is one of the few circumstances where personal judgement is
permitted. Strict application of the Ordinance is not the governing issue on
whether or not to grant a license.
City Attorney Pauly stated the liquor statutes provide for 12 licenses up to
20,000 population and 18 licenses up to 40,000. A special census can be taken
if need be prior to the 1990 Federal census .
Tangen expressed concern about future licenses; but stated he would not like
to see this license denied as it would be discriminatory. Edstrom agreed and
noted since there is a provision for a special census there are fewer restraints .
i
Bentley related concerns expressed to him by residents including that granting
this license would eliminate a family-type restaurant; the proximity to Kinder-
Care should be considered. Bentley said others should realize the Council will
be closely monitoring future requests for liquor licenses.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Tangen, to grant approval to the request
from Canterbury Restaurant, Inc. (Chester's) for a liquor license. Motion
carried unanimously.
V. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS NOS. 1270 - 1492
MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to approve Payment of Claims Nos.

to elevator penthouses, etc.
City Council Minutes -9- April 20, 1982
Penzel noted that even though this development is not within the Schooner
Boulevard assessment district the developer is voluntarily willing to con-
tribute to the assessment district an amount of not less than $100 per acre.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Edstrom, to give 2nd Reading to Ordinance

( letter of April 12, 1982. Further discussion included discussion of a
t
fourth alternative. I
Penzel stated the reason for reconsideration of a route in this area
was due to a petition from the Topview Acres residents expressing their
concern for access for public safety vehicles. Redpath noted at one time
residents had petitioned to have no access.
John Reedy, 7262 Gordon Drive, said most Topview Area residents had presumed
the discussion on the access was to be decided when and if the decision as

D. Request from John Reedy
Penzel called attention to an April 20, 1982, letter from John Reedy rep-
resenting the Eden Prairie Athletic Association (copy attached) requesting
one free family membership to the new Eden Prairie Community Center to be
used as a door prize at the Athletic Association' s Pancake Breakfast to
be held May 8, 1982.
Bentleysaid his only concern is that if this request is ranted it would
Y q 9
set a precedent.
Reedy said the Eden Prairie Athletic Association is actually five youth
organizations ( Girls Athletics Association, Baseball Association, Basket-
ball Association, Soccer Association, and Football Association) which are
conducting a joint fund raising effort. He further explained 1,700 youth
are served and one of the qualifications is that he/she be a resident -of
Eden Prairie.
Tangen asked if this was to be considered an annual donation. Reedy said
it is a "one shot deal ," but he would not be adverse to coming back in a
year to request a similar donation.

to the Community Center to the Eden Prairie. Athletic Association to be used
as a door prize at its May 8, 1982, fund raiser. Motion carried unanimously.
