Regarding item C,Thorfinnson wondered why we are doing a Feasibility Study at this time since service will not be available until some time in the future. Alan Gray said Staff has met with the neighborhood and they are aware we might come to the conclusion that it may be three to four years. Gray said the study will explore alternate ways to get utilities to the neighborhood. Thorfinnson then asked if this is totally dependent on MUSA line expansion. Gray said they are within the MUSA line. For item F,Thorfinnson asked for clarification of the fees and charges for use of City Center Meeting Rooms and Community Rooms because it appeared we may be charging non-profit groups more than non-resident individuals and businesses. 7ullie said the schedule was worked up to recover our direct costs for the civic groups. Thorfinnson specifically questioned the $3 S set-up fee listed only in the Group I (non-profit) fees. 7ullie said they need to research this issue and return with an explanation.

Request for Zoning District Change from Rural to Neighborhood Commercial on 1.7 acres, Site Plan Review on 1.7 acres and Preliminary Plat of 4.83 acres into 2 lots. Location: City West Parkway and Shady Oak Road. (Ordinance for Zoning District Change and Resolution 96-25 for Preliminary Plat) Erik Johnson, representing Kindercare Learning Centers and Tandem Properties, reviewed the proposal. Assistant City Manager Enger said the Planning Commission reviewed the proposal at their January 8, 1996, meeting and recommended approval on a 7-0 vote, subject to the recommendations of the Staff Report of January 5, 1996. He reviewed the recommendations contained in the report. Director ofPublic Works Dietz said there are some outstanding issues on the site and suggested the issues of the NURP pond be resolved between 1st and 2nd Readings. Pidcock expressed concern about locating child care facilities next to gas stations. She thought there should be some warning given to parents that it is not good for children to be exposed to the lead in gasoline. There were no comments from the audience. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to close the Public Hearing, to approve the 1st Reading of an Ordinance for Zoning District Change from Rural to Neighborhood Commercial on 1.7 acres,to adopt Resolution 96-25 for Preliminary Plat approval of 4.83 acres into 2 lots; and to direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating Commission and Staff recommendations. Motion carried unanimously. B. ROGER'S COMMERCIAL GUIDE PLAN CHANGE by Roger Lindeman. Request for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Industrial to Neighborhood Commercial on 1.91 acres. Location: 9125 Flying Cloud Drive. (Resolution for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change) CITY COUNCIL AUN UTES February 6, 1996 Page 5 Jullie said we received a request from Roger's Commercial today to continue the hearing to the February 20th meeting. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Thorfmnson,to continue this item to the February 20, 1996, meeting. Motion carried unanimously. C. COLUMBINE TOWNHOMES by Cornerstone/Equities LLC. Request for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Office to Medium Density Residential on 3.3 acres, PUD Concept Amendment on 15.3 acres„ Zoning District Change from Rural to RM-6.5 on 3.3 acres,PUD District Review on 3.3 acres, Site Plan Review on 3.3 acres, and Preliminary Plat of 3.3 acres into one lot, and request of the Council and Housing and Redevelopment Authority for approval of a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) Plan and Project Plan for the Columbine Townhomes. Location: Columbine Road,North of the Post Office. (Resolution 96-27 for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change,Resolution 96-28 for PUD Concept Amendment, Ordinance for Zoning District Change and PUD District Review and Resolution 96-26 for Preliminary Plat, and Resolution 96-29 for the City Council approving Tag Increment Financing Plan and Project Plan, and Resolution HRA 96-1 for the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) adopting Tax Increment Financing Plan and Project Plan) Mayor Harris announced that this will be a Joint Public Meeting involving both the City Council and the Housing & Redevelopment Authority (BRA). She then convened the BRA for this project, stating that we will have the Council hearing and the required BRA meeting conducted simultaneously. Jullie said the official notice for this Public Hearing was published on January 25, 1996,in the Eden Prairie News and mailed to 19 property owners within the project area. The proposed site plan for this project shows 32 multi-family units on 3.3 acres located along Columbine Road north of the Post Office site. These units would provide housing with rents affordable for persons with incomes below 60% of the median income for the metro area. It is proposed that the City would use its Tax Increment Financing authority,which is essential for the feasibility of this project. All 32 units proposed can be credited toward meeting the City's Livable Communities affordable rental housing goal of 20 units for 1996. Colleen Carey of Cornerstone Group gave an overview of the project. Pidcock asked if the units will provide affordable housing for an extended period of time. Carey replied they will provide affordable housing for a minimum of 15 years, and there is an extended use agreement for a total of 30 years. Dennis Sutliff, representing BRW, reviewed the details of the project. Tyra-Lukens asked if the handicapped accessible units will have wider doorways. Sutliff said those units will meet the requirements for handicap units and will meet CITY COUNCIL AGENDA February 6, 1996 Page 6 ADA requirements. Case then asked if there will be one such unit per building,with a total of eight in the complex. Sutliff said there can be as many as eight; however, they plan to build two units with all the accessories, and the other six will be structurally adaptable. Pidcock asked about the security of the units. Sutliff said it will be similar to other townhomes, and will comply with federal and state guidelines that cover the kinds of hardware and other details. Thorfinnson questioned the parking that is planned since there will probably be two or more cars with the three bedroom units. Sutliff said they exceed the zoning ordinance for parking if the parking available on the street is included. Enger said the Planning Commission reviewed the project at their December 11, 1995 meeting and voted unanimously to recommend the zoning district change, subject to the recommendations in the Staff Report of December 8, 1995. Lambert said the Parks,Recreation&Natural Resources Commission reviewed the project at their December 18 meeting and recommended approval, per the December 8th Staff Report. Harris asked when Columbine Road will go through. Dietz said this is one of the TIF financing projects. They are looking at options to get through the last segment of property,possibly next year. Harris said she wanted to be sure it is still on the priority list. Gary Fields, representing Springsted Financial, gave an overview of the Tax Increment Financing Plan that is needed for this project in order to make the financing available. He said a total of$337,500 of assistance will be provided to developers. Tyra-Lukens asked if we approved the CDBG allocation last spring. Thorfinnson said we have been setting aside block grant money for this type of thing. Pidcock questioned whether one of the transit buses would be able to turn around in the project. Sutliff said he was not sure of the turning radius of the buses, but it can accommodate a fire truck. There were no comments from the audience. MOTION: Thorfinnson moved, seconded by Pidcock, to close the Public Hearing. Motion carried unanimously. MOTION: Thorfinnson moved, seconded by Pidcock, that the ERA adopt Resolution BRA 96-1 adopting the Project Plan for Redevelopment Project Area No. 4 in the City of Eden Prairie and Tax Increment Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District No. 12. Motion carried unanimously. CITY COUNCIL AGENDA February 6, 1996 Page 7 MOTION: Thorfinnson moved, seconded by Pidcock, to close the BRA meeting. Motion carried unanimously. MOTION: Thorfinnson moved, seconded by Pidcock, that the Council adopt Resolution 96-29 relating to Redevelopment Project Area No. 4 and Tax Increment Financing District No. 12 approving the Project Plan and a Tax Increment Financing Plan therefore; to adopt Resolution 96-27 for Comprehensive Guide Plan Change from Office to Medium Density Residential on 3.3 acres;to adopt Resolution 96-28 for PUD Concept Amendment on 15.3 acres; to approve 1 st Reading of the Ordinance for Zoning District Change from Rural to RM 6.5 on 3.3 acres, and PUD District Review on 3.3 acres;to adopt Resolution 96-26 for Preliminary Plat of 3.3 acres into 1 lot; and to direct Staff to prepare a Development Agreement incorporating Commission and Staff recommendations. Motion carried unanimously. VI. PAYMENT OF CLAIMS MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Thorfinnson, to approve the Payment of Claims as submitted. Motion carried on a roll call vote, with Case, Pidcock, Thorfinnson, Tyra-Lukens and Harris voting "aye." VIE[. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS A. 1ST READING OF AN ORDINANCE CHANGING STREET NAME OF OLD COUNTY ROAD 18 7ullie said the Heritage Preservation Commission (HPQ recommends that the frontage road paralleling County Road 18 be named Hennepin Town Road. Pidcock asked if research was done on the names of property owners along the road. She said she thought this item should be continued until the next meeting in order to get more input before deciding. Harris asked how we should go about getting more input. Pidcock said we should also get input on the names of native American bands that existed in this area as well as input from other sources. Tyra-Lukens thought we have set up a system for the HPC to come up with street names, and she liked the name Hennepin Town Road. Case agreed that we have put a system in place to get HPC input for street names and noted that the HPC considered names of all of the property owners along the road as well as native American names. He said the name Hennepin Town Road recognizes the old town of Hennepin that was south of the current Riverview Road. MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to approve 1 st Reading of the Ordinance designating the frontage road paralleling County Road 18 from Riverview CITY COUNCIL AGENDA February 6, 1996 Page 8 Road to Anderson Lakes Parkway to be named Hennepin Town Road. Pidcock said she thought it was redundant to have Hennepin as a street name in Hennepin County. Thorfinnson said we gave the HPC responsibility to put names on streets; however, the problem here is that we don't have the background that led to their decision. If the Council had that information, it would be easier to see the process the HPC used to arrive at their recommendation. Harris suggested that the information given by Councilmember Case be made available to the Council in the next packet, and that we ask the HPC to provide such background information in their next process. VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried unanimously. B. 1ST READING OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CITY CODE CHAPTER 2. SECTIONS 2.10, 2,16, 2.21 AND 2.29 RELATING TO BOARDS & COMMISSIONS 7ullie said the proposed amendments are pursuant to past Council actions relating to our various boards and commissions. The changes incorporate the new Housing, Transportation&Social Services Board, and change the term for office of appointees from March through the last day of February to April 1 through the 31st of March. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to approve lst Reading of an Ordinance amending City Code, Chapter 2, Sections 2.1, 2.6, 2.21 and 2.29. Motion carried unanimously. VIII. PETITTONS,REQUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS A. REQUEST FROM TOM MORGAN FOR A MARCH 12. 1996 HEARING DATE TO APPEAL VARIANCE 995-31 7ullie said Mr. Morgan is appealing the decision of the Board of Adjustments & Appeals regarding his request for a setback variance. The Board denied the request on a tie vote. Staff recommends that March 12th be set as the date for a Public Hearing to review the request for variance. MOTION: Tyra-Lukens moved, seconded by Pidcock,to set March 12, 1996, as the date to review Variance Request#95-31. Motion carried unanimously. IX. REPORTS OF ADVISORY BOARDS & COMMISSIONS X. APPOINTMENTS XI. REPORTS OF OFFICERS CITY COUNCIL AGENDA February 6, 1996 Page 9 A. REPORTS OF COUNCILMEMBERS 1. Report from Southwest Metro Transit Pidcock reported that the Southwest Metro Transit legislation involving the "Good News" Bus has been dropped for this year. She thought it was an educational experience for the legislature to learn how Southwest Metro has developed their transit system and handled their own finances. She said the Suburban Transit Association (STA) bill has been passed in the house and now is going to the Senate. Pidcock will continue to update the Council on the progress of the STA bill. 2. Request for Update on Status of Art Center Task Force 3. Request for Update on Status of Tree Preservation Task Force 4. Request for Update on Bearpath Trail Access Issue Case asked Staff-to provide updates on these three items at the February 20th meeting. 5. Possible City Council/School Board Joint Meeting Case said he has had discussions with staff from the School District regarding some issues on the High School expansion as well as other issues that we have in common with the School District. He thought we could benefit from a joint meeting to discuss issues such as High School student parking, County Road 4, Community Center fees and other items. A joint meeting would also provide an opportunity to discuss issues with the new superintendent. MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Pidcock, to direct Staff to contact School District officials to set up a Joint Workshop session as soon as possible. Motion carried unanimously. Harris asked Councilmembers to give Staff their suggestions for issues to be covered at the meeting so that they can prepare an agenda. Pidcock said that Mr. Lambert told Southwest Metro they would have to move the Park and Ride facility to the south side of Valley View Road. She said they will not be able to accomplish that by February 12 because it will take more time to complete the required process of notification about the change. Lambert said he understood. 6. Tobacco Legislation Tyra-Lukens said there are strong bills being considered by both House and CITY COUNCIL AGENDA February 6, 1996 Page 10 Senate this year regarding youth access to tobacco. The House bill has language that limits a city's ability to make more stringent restrictions. She suggested that Councilmembers call our representatives to let them know we would like to have the ability to make a stronger local ordinance than the House bill provides. She noted that time was of the essence for those calls. 7. Orientation for New Board and Commission Members Thorfinnson reviewed plans for the orientation of new Board and Commission members that will occur in March. A pre-Council meeting workshop is planned for the first meeting in March for Staff liaisons and new members. There will also be an orientation meeting given by the Staff liaison for each Board and Commission to provide more specific background on current activities, meeting procedures and by-laws. Pidcock asked if all of the members of the Boards and Commissions will be asked to come in for the Council workshop. Thorfinnson said it is just for new members and will be a general orientation done in part by the City Manager and the Mayor and in part by the City Attorney. 8. Workshops Thorfinnson distributed a list of workshop dates and topics that he worked up in order to get the workshop calendar established for the year. He thought the topics could be subject to change, but the dates should remain firm. Councilmembers discussed the attendance that would be required for the workshop sessions. Harris said there will be some meetings where it will be important to have a full Council in attendance, such as the budget meeting or other sessions at which information is passed that will impact policy decisions. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to adopt the proposed schedule,with some flexibility to be allowed regarding the proposed topics. Motion carried unanimously. B. REPORT OF CITY MANAGER 1. Cily Manager Performance Review Process Harris noted that last September we accepted a report from Councilmembers Thorfinnson and Tyra-Lukens presenting a revised process for the City Manager's Performance Review. City Manager Jullie provided information in the FYI packets as input for the review process. She suggested that the two Councilmembers who developed the revised process be asked to perform the review. CITY COUNCIL AGENDA February 6, 1996 Page 11 MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Case, to appoint Councilmember Tyra-Lukens and Councilmember Thorfinnson to serve on the Performance Evaluation team. Motion carried unanimously. C. REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF PARKS,RECREATION&FACILITIES 1. Letter from Thomas Lindquist regarding Duck Lake Lambert reviewed the letter of January 7, 1996,from Mr. Lindquist in which he asked the City's assistance in a snow removal effort on Duck Lake to improve the dissolved oxygen content of the lake to help prevent winter kill of the fish population. The issue was reviewed at the Parks Commission meeting on February 5, 1996, and lengthy discussions were held with the residents. The Parks Commission voted approval on a 5-1 vote of the following recommendations to the Council: 1. Authorize Staff to work with the neighborhood and the DNR to develop a management plan and to pursue the issue of providing public access to the lake so that the DNR could manage the lake. 2. Authorize Staff to develop a plan to assist neighbors in clearing up dead fish this spring if there is the severe fish kill that is expected. He noted that Staff is recommending managing Duck Lake only if the DNR is part of the partnership, and the DNR will do that only if there is a public access to the lake. If an arrangement is made, the City would provide the electricity and maintain the aerator. Regarding the issue of public access, he said the DNR defines public access to occur when the general public has the same right to use the lake as the residents that live there. At this time there are two undeveloped properties on the lake. One of the two is under development at this time, and we could request land in lieu of park fees in order to provide the public access. We would need to notify the developer immediately if that is what we choose to do. In addition,there is a narrow strip of land on the north shore adjacent to Duck Lake Trail that provides public access to the lake for pedestrians; however, it has no parking lot or public boat access to the lake. Harris asked what the costs will be for the public access and for the ongoing costs of aeration, and whether neighbors would be willing to participate in the cost. Lambert said that if there is a public access, the aerator would be free; however we would have to install and operate it. The operational costs of the aerator would be relatively low and it would cost $2,000 to create a launch and parking for two cars. Harris asked what we are doing about aeration on other lakes. Lambert CITY COUNCIL AGENDA February 6, 1996 Page 12 replied that we have aeration on three other lakes--Red Rock Lake,Mitchell Lake and Round Lake. He said we run the systems in November and December until the lakes freeze up. He noted that both Red Rock Lake and Mitchell Lake have portable systems. Thomas Lindquist, 16750 Baywood Terrace,thanked the Council for hearing his request and for considering measures that could save the lake in future years. Case asked Mr.Lindquist if the neighbors would want to stay with the current pedestrian access or would want the public access Mr. Lambert described. Lindquist said the de facto public access exists now,however, they would be concerned that gasoline-powered boats not be allowed on the lake. Lambert said that, if we provide the public access, we would have a hearing with the neighbors there and would recommend there be no motors or electric motors only. Tyra-Lukens asked if the City stocks lakes. Lambert said the DNR will stock if there is a public access. Pidcock then asked if the DNR stocks Red Rock Lake and Mitchell Lake. Lambert replied that they monitor those lakes and will stock if it is needed. Case said he liked the long term solution to get the DNR involved, but he would like to see the figures on paper as to what we will lose in cash park fees. Lambert said there are 16 lots at$1200 per unit on the Rogers property. Thorfinnson was concerned that access from the Rogers property won't be easy since the development is already in review. Harris said she was interested in investigating the possibility of land in lieu of cash park fees,however, she felt it was problematical to ask the developer for land at this point. Lambert said we could also go to the DNR and negotiate with our current pedestrian access. 2. Storm Damaged Tree Hauling Policy Referring to his memo of February 6, 1996, Lambert said Staff would like some direction from Council regarding the policy of removing trees that were damaged during the recent ice storm. Staff recommends that a policy be set that would limit City tree hauling to emergency hauling of those trees that have fallen across public trails or roadways, plus diseased trees and also other storm damaged trees whenever the City Council has designated staff to do so after a severe storm. MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens, to adopt the policy regarding storm damaged tree hauling, as proposed in the Staff Report of CITY COUNCIL AGENDA February 6, 1996 Page 13 February 6, 1996. Motion carried unanimously. 3. First Reading of an Ordinance Amending Ordinance No. 2.32 for Issuance of Citations Case said he thought that the issue of giving citations has wider implications and that it should be reviewed with the School District. Lambert said we are talking about restrictions from 7:00 a.m, to 2:30 p.m. when school is in session only, and City staff discussed this with school staff. MOTION: Case moved, seconded by Pidcock,to approve 1 st Reading of an Ordinance amending Ordinance No. 2.32 for Issuance of Citations. Pidcock noted there is a bill before the legislature that generally bars students from driving to school except for work related situations. She thought this issue has an impact on people trying to go to the Community Center. Motion carried unanimously. D. REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT E. REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS F. REPORT OF CITY ATTORNEY G. DIRECTOR OF ASSESSING 1. Appointment of Special Board of Review and Setting 1996 Meeting Date for Thursday.April 25, 1996 at 7:00 PM Jullie referred to the Staff Report of January 30, 1996 from Steve Sinell recommending Thursday,April 25, 1996 at 7:00 p.m. be set as the date for the 1996 Board of Review. The names of four members for the Board of Review were suggested in the memo, with Staff to recruit a fifth member for Council appointment. Pidcock noted that she submitted a name for the fifth member. Jullie said we have been trying to reach that person. MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Tyra-Lukens,to set Thursday, April 25, 1996, at 7:00 p.m.for the 1996 Board of Review meeting;to appoint Mike Best, Annette O'Connor, Phil Olson and Dick Sager to the Special Board of Review; and to direct the City Manager and Director of Assessing to recruit a fifth member, Ms. Carol Standal, subject to her acceptance to serve. Motion carried unanimously. CITY COUNCIL AGENDA February 6, 1996 Page 14 XH. OTHER BUSINESS MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Case,to close the meeting to a closed session with the City Attorney. Motion carried unanimously. The meeting was closed at 9:35 p.m. At 9:45 p.m. Mayor Harris reopened the meeting following the closed session. XM. ADJOURNMENT MOTION: Pidcock moved, seconded by Case, to adjourn the meeting. Motion carried unanimously. Mayor Harris adjourned the meeting at 9:46 p.m.
