City Council - 12/19/2000 APPROVED MINUTES EDEN PRAIRIE CITY COUNCIL TUESDAY,DECEMBER 19,2000 7:00 PM, CITY CENTER Council Chamber 8080 Mitchell Road CITY COUNCIL: Mayor Jean Harris, Councilmembers Sherry Butcher, Ronald Case, Ross Thorfinnson, Jr., and Nancy Tyra-Lukens CITY COUNCIL STAFF: City Manager Chris Enger, Parks & Recreation Services Director Bob Lambert, Public Safety Director Jim Clark, Public Works Services Director Eugene Dietz, Community Development and Financial Services Director Don Uram, Management Services Director Natalie Swaggert, City Attorney Roger Pauly and Council Recorder Peggy Rasmussen I. ROLL CALL/CALL THE MEETING TO ORDER Mayor Harris called the meeting to order at 7:08 p.m. H. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE III. RECOGNITION OF COUNCILMEMBER ROSS THORFINNSON,JR. Mayor Harris praised Councilmember Thorfinnson for his work on the Council. In 1995 he was appointed to the Council to complete an unfinished term, and he has made major contributions, primarily in three areas — human services, transportation, and fiscal innovation in administrative services. Mayor Harris presented the Key to the City to Councilmember Thorfinnson, citing his work in those areas. The other Councilmembers expressed appreciation for the work he has done and said that he would be missed. Enger said leadership marked Thorfinnson's tenure on the Council and hoped Thorfinnson would find a continued role in public service. Thorfinnson expressed thanks for the Key to the City. He said when he looks back over the last six years he is most proud of the HOPE program, which pooled resources to accomplish a great deal of good. He is also proud of the fact the City has gone through the planning for the Capital Improvement Program,which is a road map for allocating the City's resources. Regarding the I-494 Corridor Planning Commission, it has raised the level of discussion about the necessity to expand the corridor, although funding to solve that need is uncertain. The demonstration project in the Golden Triangle has brought $1 million into the City from federal, state and county sources. IV. COUNCIL FORUM INVITATION Mayor Harris said Council Forum is held the first and third Tuesdays of the month from 6:30 to 6:55 p.m. in Heritage Room II.

PROPOSED ISSUANCE OF REVENUE BONDS IN THE AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $3,000,000 TO S&W PLASTICS (RESOLUTION NO. 2000-205) Official notice of this public hearing was published in the November 30, 2000, Eden Prairie News. Uram said Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.152 through 469.1651 require that the City conduct a public hearing on the proposed issuance of its revenue bonds for the purpose of financing approximately $3,000,000 for the acquisition and installation of plastic injection molding equipment and certain leasehold improvements in the Company's existing facility at 10206 Crosstown Circle and the possible acquisition of an additional manufacturing facility in the City. Mayor Harris asked if anyone wished to address the Council on the proposed issuance. No one did. MOTION: Thorfinnson moved, seconded by Butcher, to close the Public Hearing; and adopt Resolution No. 2000-205 authorizing the issuance and sale of $3,000,000 Variable Rate Demand Industrial Development Revenue Bonds, Series 2000.

RESOLUTION NO. 2000-206 OPPOSING STATE LEGISLATION ALLOWING SALE OF WINE IN OUTLETS OTHER THAN MUNICIPAL LIQUOR STORES Uram explained that the Minnesota Grocers Association is supporting legislation that would allow the sale of wine in grocery stores, convenience stores, gas stations and other similar retail outlets. The City of Eden Prairie would be impacted, as it operates three liquor stores, with approximately $7 million in revenues projected for 2000. Forty percent of their sales are wine. Current law states that if a liquor operation is unprofitable for two out of three years, the City Council must hold a public hearing to consider whether the City should continue in the liquor business. If the City's liquor stores experienced a 20-percent reduction in wine sales,two out of the three stores would be unprofitable. Uram said he wanted to alert the Council to this proposed legislation and that the beverage industry in general is against any legislation that would permit the sale of alcoholic beverages in outlets other than authorized off-sale stores. Adopting the Resolution opposing this legislation would lend support to the organized effort of the Minnesota Municipal Beverage Association (MMBA) and the Minnesota Licensed Beverage Association(MLBA), as well as other communities. Case said one reason to have the City operating MMBA stores is oversight of sales, and he asked Uram what would happen if that were lost. Uram said a person must be 21 or older to make a purchase or to work in the liquor stores, but it is difficult to control these sales in grocery stores, and persons under 21 can work there. Mayor Harris said she is concerned about controlling youth access to alcohol, and also the issue of compliance checks, currently carried out at the liquor stores. Tyra-Lukens agreed. She appreciated the fact that liquor sales are presently segregated from grocery stores. Butcher said she also appreciated the revenue from the liquor stores being available for use by the City. MOTION: Butcher moved, seconded by Case, to adopt Resolution No. 2000- 206 opposing the sale of wine, for off-premise consumption, in outlets other than the municipal liquor stores; and authorize$10,000 contribution toward the MLBA and MMBA's coordinated effort to oppose the legislation. Motion carried 5-0. CITY COUNCIL XHNUTES December 19,2000 Page 5 M. PETITIONS,REQUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS XII. REPORTS OF ADVISORY BOARDS & COMMISSIONS XM. APPOINTMENTS XIV. REPORTS OF OFFICERS A. REPORTS OF COUNCILMEMBERS 1. Report by Councilmember Tyra-Lukens on the Suburban Transit Association Tyra-Lukens said the association was formed in 1995 to provide a voice at the State Legislature for those who opted out of the Metro Transit Authority. The Association has established a legislative agenda for 2001. The main focus will be to have the Legislature provide on-going bonding authority for transit rather than having to obtain approval every year. The second will be to provide funding for transit services outside the transit service district, perhaps by extending taxation for services metro-wide. The third will be to watch the whole movement toward taking transit off of property taxes. That is a concern, and the Suburban Transit Association will be working on that in this coming legislative session. 2. Report by Councilmember Tyra-Lukens on Southwest Metro Transit Commission Tyra-Lukens said Southwest Metro Transit has been providing bus service to the Holidazzle Parade. Use of this service is down this year, partially due to inclement weather. At the last Southwest Metro meeting, members authorized the Commission to enter into a purchase agreement on up to four MCI coaches. Since the meeting they have found that federal funding is available for only two coaches. The coaches cost $425,000 each. As Southwest Metro is operating at capacity for many of their downtown trips,these new coaches are needed. Butcher asked why the buses cost so much. Tyra-Lukens said these buses are comfortable and easy to drive, so they help in recruiting bus drivers. They do not cost much more than other buses. Thor umson said buying equipment and operating it are the two problems with transit. Southwest Metro can't pay for the coaches without funding assistance. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES December 19,2000 Page 6 3. Councilmember Butcher's Request for Update on Safety Issue at Pioneer Trail and Settlement Drive Butcher said a number of people have called her who are concerned about the safety of this intersection. She had asked Gene Dietz to see if there is anything that can be done. Dietz replied the problem occurs near the crest of the hill. The original design did not include a median. When that was installed, the road alignment was shifted to the east. Adding a right-turn lane from Settlement Drive to eastbound Pioneer Trail changed the sight distance to the crest of the hill. Dietz said he received a response from Hennepin County about some possible solutions. There are several expensive ones, including rebuilding the geometrics to improve the sight distance. A less-expensive solution would be a higher degree of enforcement of the speed limit, as this contributes to safety. There is also the possibility of closing the right-turn lane from Settlement Drive to eastbound Pioneer Trail. Dietz recommended a meeting of City staff with the neighborhood if this is done, because it would have some implications for the function of the intersection. Perhaps the residents would favor closing the intersection on a trial basis. If so,that would likely occur after the first of the year. Butcher agreed it would be a good idea to have a meeting with the people who live there. B. REPORT OF CITY MANAGER 1. January 2,2001, Council Workshop Enger said the neighborhood around the Hartford Place PUD has requested an opportunity to come before the City Council to present a concept for mixed use on the property owned by Ryan Companies. This would be done in cooperation with Ryan Companies, with the understanding that the City has given direction on the acceptable use of the land on that property, which approved mixed use. Enger recommended hearing this presentation at the Workshop on January 2. Enger said the neighbors solicited a developer, who has come forward with a plan that the neighbors support. The neighbors believed there could be a better use for the property than the original, approved, Hartford Place plan. The City has indicated a wider tolerance for use of the property than the adjoining neighborhood has. The neighborhood group was meeting that night, and Enger said he understood the developer was going to go over the type of plan that would be feasible for this property. Enger said he would find out the next day how this plan was received. Rather than go through six more months of the standard approval process, the Council CITY COUNCIL NIINUTES December 19,2000 Page 7 could be involved up front by reviewing the concept that would be presented at the Workshop meeting and either approve it or not. The Council could give direction to staff to go through the details of the plan with the developer. Tyra-Lukens said she hoped the neighbors involved have been told that the Council would not want Ryan Companies to get close to having another development approved and then have a different group of neighbors oppose the plan. She wondered how broad their support is in the neighborhood. Enger said staff has this same concern. The neighborhood group was told to solicit and get consensus from the whole neighborhood. Ryan Companies has begun to grade and modify the site in preparation for construction next spring. Ryan Companies is willing to let another developer come and work with the neighborhood to make some proposals in the interim, but if those proposals are not acceptable to them they are going ahead with construction. If the neighbors want positive involvement they have one chance to do it. Enger said a presentation of this kind is not part of the City's standard process, and Council should let him know if it has any objection. Tyra-Lukens said Council has seldom become involved so early in the process,before a developer's plan goes through the Planning Commission. When this has happened in the past, sometimes the plan is very different when it comes back to the Council for approval. Tyra-Lukens advised Enger to inform the neighborhood group about this. She asked who the developer is. Enger said Rottlund Homes is the developer. 2. 2001 Property Tax Levy (Resolution No. 2000-207) Enger said the Eden Prairie City Council adopted resolutions certifying the proposed 2001 City property tax levy on September 5, 2000. Calculations for the City show the certified levy against tax capacity to be $21,440,029 after deducting the proportionate share of HACA for the various levy items. There is also a market value levy of$614,000 proposed for 2001. The City considers its total net levy to be the amount further reduced by the Fiscal Disparities distribution ($954,746). Accordingly, the City's resolution shows a net levy on tax capacity of$20,485,283, and a market value levy of$614,000, for a total net levy of$21,099,283. According to state statute, the final levy amount must be certified to the county auditor by December 28, 2000. City Council adoption of the final levy and budget will complete this process. MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Thorfinnson, to adopt Resolution No. 2000-207 certifying the 2001 Net Property Tax levy to be $21,099,283; and approve the 2001 Budget of$28,905,873 as reviewed by the Council on December 4,2000. Motion carried 5-0. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES December 19,2000 Page 8 3. 2001 Local Transit Services Tax Lew (Resolution No. 2000-208) Enger said the Council declared their intent to exercise the Local Transit Services tax levy option for taxes payable in 2001 on June 6, 2000. The preliminary levy totaling$2,595,187 was certified to the county auditor by September 15 in accordance with state statute. The final levy must be certified to the county auditor by December 28, 2000. The City considers the Local Transit Services total net levy to be the amount further reduced by the Fiscal Disparities distribution ($127,838). Accordingly, the resolution shows a total net levy of$2,595,187. MOTION: Tyra-Lukens moved, seconded by Butcher, to adopt Resolution No. 2000-208 certifying the 2001 Net Local Transit Services Tax levy to be$2,595,187. Motion carried 5-0. C. REPORT OF PARKS AND RECREATION SERVICES DIRECTOR 1. Donation from Elaine Jacques for Restoration of Riley-Jacques Barn Hayloft Floor Lambert said Elaine Jacques, former owner of the Riley-Jacques historic property, is proposing to donate $10,000 to the City toward the restoration of the barn on the property, on the condition that the hayloft floor be replaced by December 31, 2003, or the money will be returned to her. This is being donated as an incentive to obtaining matching grants or donations, in hopes of renovating the building for use. Tyra-Lukens said this is not the first time Elaine Jacques has donated funds, and they are very much appreciated. However, Tyra-Lukens wondered how this would impact the rest of the historic properties that need renovation. Lambert said it does have an impact. Whenever the City receives some money, groups like the Eden Prairie Foundation and those in charge of allocating state grants are more likely to give their money if they see something happening. The City will have to begin fixing these historic sites fairly soon or it won't have them. The barn is one of those buildings that need an investment of money. The Council will be looking at all these historic sites and making decisions about them in the near future. Butcher said this may be one of those good opportunities to form a partnership with the school district if, in the future, Council considers this site as one school children might utilize. She thought it would be worthwhile checking into LCTS as a funding source. Also there may be some other service organizations interested in a project like renovating the barn. Butcher asked Lambert to look into that. CITY COUNCIL MINIMS December 19,2000 Page 9 Case said regarding the Heritage Preservation Commission's Adaptive Reuse Proposal, he couldn't recall if the HPC recommended prioritizing renovations to the historic buildings. Case said this again raises the issue of the process that is being followed. Lambert said Mrs. Jacques came in last week and wanted to make this donation before the end of the year and needed to have it approved at this Council meeting. There was no time to involve the HPC. Case said the Council deeply appreciated her gift. He would like to direct this matter back to the HPC and ask them how this renovation of the barn fits in the whole picture of the historic sites that need to be restored. MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to accept the donation of$10,000 from Elaine Jacques for the purpose of restoring the hayloft floor of the Riley-Jacques barn; and direct staff to consider this project in the future Capital Improvement Program discussions; and direct staff to investigate matching grant opportunities from the Minnesota Historical Society and the Department of Natural Resources for completing this project; and direct staff to send this matter back to the HPC for their reflection, action and advice. Motion carried 5-0. 2. Request from Eden Prairie School District to Remove Skating Rink, Hockey Rink and Warming House at Prairie View Elementary School Lambert said he received a letter from the Eden Prairie School District last week requesting that the City remove the skating rink, hockey rink and boards, as well as the warming house at Prairie View School after the end of the 2000-2001 school year, and to reestablish the turf in these areas. Since then, Lambert said he has received five phone calls from people who heard about the School Board action and expressed concern about removal of that facility. Lambert explained the property line between the School District and City runs down the center of the hockey rink. The warming house and the free- skating rink are on City property. In the early 1970s, the City and the School District agreed to construct a hockey rink and skating rink on School and City property at Prairie View Elementary School. The agreement states the City would agree to remove the rinks if requested by the School District. One of the reasons for the request is that when this park was originally designed there were fewer students at Prairie View. Now there are 800 students, and the school needs more open field space for a playground. The rinks damage the turf and the ground becomes muddy in the spring. They also have had some vandalism problems, with the warming house being burned down. This has been replaced with a temporary shelter. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES December 19,2000 Page 10 Butcher asked if the nearest neighborhood rink would be at Round Lake. The Hockey Association has said more ice is needed. Lambert said the City has a two-mile service area radius for skating facilities. Round Lake is about one-half mile away. However,that rink is used primarily by older children,whereas Prairie View is more a neighborhood rink. City staff is proposing to replace the facility at Prairie View Elementary School with the last proposed outdoor hockey rink and skating rink at Crestwood Neighborhood Park in southwest Eden Prairie. Construction is proposed to begin this spring and be completed by the fall of 2001; therefore, the City will not have a net loss of any outdoor rinks with the removal of the facility at Prairie View Elementary School. Use of rinks has dropped off in the past few years, mainly due to the poor ice conditions. Lambert said he was not convinced that Prairie View doesn't need an outdoor rink,however. The City could leave the free-skating rink, although the school says they need that area also for open field space. Mayor Harris said she has had telephone calls from residents opposed to removing the rinks. She asked what contact has been made with neighborhood residents who feel they are losing a resource of value to them. Tom Myers, Principal of Prairie View Elementary School, asked that this matter be tabled so school representatives can meet with the various parties involved to explore the options. The School District is concerned because there is a need for more open field space for the 800 students. Case requested that staff bring Council the cost associated with operating the free-skating rink and how many are using this rink. 3. Appraisal of Birch Island Woods for Natural and Scenic Area Grant Application Enger said at the last Council meeting he was directed to write a letter to Hennepin County requesting a continuance to holding this property off the market in order to do archeological research. Enger said he has written a letter to the State Historic Preservation Office and the Office of State Archeologists requesting whatever information they have on archeological sites in Birch Island Woods. In addition, the letter referred to providing a Phase I environmental audit of the property. Enger also asked the County to do a joint appraisal. The City suggested it would have to obtain a Natural and Scenic Area Grant. To complete the grant application, the amount of the grant must be based on a current appraised value of the property. As the grant is a 50 percent matching grant to a maximum of $500,000, it is critical to have an independent appraisal completed by approximately mid-January, in order to complete CITY COUNCIL MINUTES December 19,2000 Page 11 the paperwork for a grant application that has a deadline of January 31, 2001. Enger did obtain an agreement that the County would hold the property off the market until the City can determine if it would receive the above grant, and to do a joint appraisal of the property. Enger said he has sent three names of appraisers to the County and they promised to get back to him on December 20. They also agreed to provide a Phase I environmental audit. Enger recommended splitting the cost of this, although ordinarily the buyer would pay for it. Enger asked Council for authorization to move forward on the joint appraisal of the property. MOTION: Butcher moved, seconded by Thorfinnson, to authorize City staff to obtain an appraisal of the Birch Island Woods parcel to be completed for the Natural and Scenic Area Grant Application. Motion carried 5-0. D. REPORT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND FINANCIAL SERVICES DIRECTOR E. REPORT OF PUBLIC WORKS SERVICES DIRECTOR 1. Snow/lee Removal Policy Dietz said City Council first adopted a formal policy for snow and ice removal in 1990. The standards and levels of service provided for snow removal and management of icing conditions is at the discretion of the City and, therefore, should be reviewed and revised as appropriate from time to time. Revisions have been made to their procedures and practices, and staff recommends that they be formally adopted as policy. Dietz said there have not been significant changes. The City has changed the way it handles salt and sand. It used to be 5 parts sand to 1 part salt, and now it is 3 parts sand to 3 parts salt. It now takes 9 hours to clear the streets, down from 12 hours in 1990, even though the number of miles of streets has increased from 183 to 212 miles. Dietz said the Council's decision to supply the budget to buy the necessary equipment made this happen. Tyra-Lukens said the street she lives on has a slope that gets a lot of sand and salt. She asked why the City is using more salt than it used to. Dietz replied the new ratio allows more melting action. In the past they used the ratio of 10 parts sand to 1 part salt. Over the years they have been increasing the use of salt because of the increase in traffic. However, the City does not have a bare-pavement policy. It would take higher traffic volumes and speed to melt the ice and snow to bare pavement. The City limits applications of salt and sand to steep slopes and intersections. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES December 19,2000 Page 12 Tyra-Lukens said she was concerned about pollution of the City's lakes. Dietz replied there has been a lot of talk about how environmentally safe salt is. However,most water goes through NURP ponds before going into the lakes. The amount of salt that goes into lakes and streams is nominal. Pollution of lakes is mainly from phosphates and nutrients. He is considering using straight salt because City crews have to sweep up the sand in the spring. The county and state have used straight salt for years. Tyra-Lukens said the City does an exceptional job of snow removal. However, she was concerned about the standard completion time being reduced in the policy from 12 hours to nine hours because, in the future, there will be a cost involved to stay within that nine-hour time frame. Then it will be harder to return to 12 hours to save money. Dietz said nine hours is a goal only, and over the past years they have routinely met that nine-hour goal after a typical snowfall. However, if they have to cut back on staff in the future,they would not be able to do it in nine hours. Tyra-Lukens said she would prefer to keep 12 hours in the policy. If the goal is 12 hours and the crews do it in nine hours that is good, but she did not recommend changing the policy to nine hours. Mayor Harris thought that was a good point. At nine hours they would be exceeding the goal. Dietz agreed to change the policy back to 12 hours, but promised they would still do their best. Case said he would like to know the cost of doing the job in nine hours, 10 hours and 12 hours. Council needs to look at those numbers and know what it costs. Regarding performance-based budgeting, this is a good example of not knowing the numbers involved in order to make an evaluation. Dietz said the City will be funding snow removal at the same level it is now for nine hours. Overtime hours are limited to plowing cul de sacs, which are plowed with pickup trucks. The City purchased wing trucks, which can go through one time and plow each street curb to curb rather than the two times it took in the past. The whole operation is much simpler than it used to be. How they allocate the resources and equipment available has made all the difference. Thorfinnson recommended leaving nine hours in the revised policy, and if they ever have to cut back on the budget the policy can be changed. MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Butcher, to adopt the Snow and Ice Removal Policy as revised in November,2000. Motion carried 5-0. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES December 19,2000 Page 13 F.
