IV. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. TIMBER CREEK by B-T Land Company. Request for PUD Development stage approval ,
rezoning from Rural to RM6.5 and R1-13.5 and preliminary platting of 94
single family lots, 120 townhouses , and 108 quadraminiums with variances.
Located north of Duck Lake Trail and south of 62nd Street. (Ordinance No.
81-12 and Resolution No. 81-158)
Jack Lynch, BRW, reviewed the concept plan that was approved in 1980 and
the current plan which he said are basically the same.
Assistant Planner Johnson stated the Planning Commission had reviewed this
at its June 22, 1981 , and July 13, 1981, meetings and had recommended its
approval subject to the recommendations contained in the Staff Report dated
` June 18, 1981 ; and with the recommendation that Townline Road be upgraded to
a collector road.
Director of Community Services Lambert said the Parks, Recreation and Natural
Resources Commission had reviewed the request at its July 20, 1981, meeting
at which time it recommended approval as per Staff reports and with the added
_ recommendation that park land be transferred at the time of rezoning.
Fenzel asked City Engineer Dietz about the Duck Lake Trail/County Road 4
intersection. Dietz replied intersection improvement will be necessary at
some point and should be scheduled into the capital improvements program,
however, the total impact of this development will not be known for while.
Penzel said he would like to see improvement of this intersection be made
along with Phase I of development. Redpath noted the church on the corner
and development further to the west have also added to the problem. Dietz
explained the church has dedicated right-of-way so a 900 intersection can be
provided for at this intersection.
Jerry Kimmel , 6610 Rainbow Drive, said that someone must take the responsibility
for the Duck Lake Trail/County 4 intersection. He also feels that the new inter-
section which will access County Road 4 on the west side from the single family
area in the proposed development will be a dangerous point. Johnson explained
Hennepin County had responded to inquiries regarding this development and had
approved the location of that particular intersection -- they do recommend that
right-in and right-out turn lanes be a part of the system. Edstrom said thought
should be given to providing left-turn lanes also. Dietz said a by-pass lane
will be required for left-turn storage.

City Council Minutes -4- August 18, 1981
Mike Reuter, 6602 Rainbow Drive, wondered if there would be a semaphore
at County Road 4 and Duck Lake Trail . Dietz stated that is a possibility,
if the warrants are met. Reuter also questioned the density transfer policy.
Penzel explained that the density, overall , in this development will remain 4
at 2 per acre. The 'density transfer is used to protect slopes, fioodpiains,
scenic easements, and other amenities while permitting landowners to utilize
their property .

Edstrom asked City Attorney Pauly's opinion on whether he has had the opper
tunity to look at the problem of staged dedication of park land. Pauly said
the problem is one of enforcement. From the City's point of view, the greater
security would lie in having the dedication up front. The City could request
documents be filed which would indicate what must be done and at what Phases
of development various parcels are to be dedicated. Rick Murray, B-T Land
Company, said homeowner's aocuments will specify future annexations and will
reference the entire plat. Pauly felt it would probably be best to have an
agreement between the present fee owner and the City which would in effect put
a cloud on the property but would protect the City's interest. Bentley wondered
if a future Council could arbitrarily change the action of this Council . He
would prefer to see the park land dedicated all at one time. Pauly said that
a municipality can down-zone someone 's property. It woult seem that a city
w would be compelled to abide by the stipulations made. Pc .izel asked what would
be the approach used to assure this usage. Pauly said it would have to be found
in the Developer's Agreement. Murray stated that it would not be financially
possible for B-T Land Company to dedicate ail the park land at one time up-front.
( Bentley asked for clarification as to when Townline Road will be up-graded.
L . Dietz said if the County is not willing to do something, then the Cities of
Eden Prairie and Minnetonka will have to go ahead.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Bentley, to close the public hearing
and to give 1st Reading to Ordinance 81-12, rezoning from Rural to RM 6.5
and R1-13.5; and to instruct the City Attorney to draft a Developer's Agree-
ment and dedication schedule outline. Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Moved by Redpath, seconded by Bentley, to adopt Resolution No. 81-158, t
approving the preliminary plat of Timber Creek. Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Moved by Tangen, seconded by Edstrom, to refer the issue of the Duck
Lake Trail/County Road 4 intersection to the City Engineer for further study.
Motion carried unanimously.
B. Edenvale 14 b_Y Equitable Life Assurance Society of the US and Equitable Life
Mortgage and Realty Investors. Request for revised PUD Development stage
approval , rezoning from R1-13.5 to RM 6.5 for approximately 15 of the 24 acres,
and preliminary plat approval of 30 single family lots and 56 duplex lots with
variances. Located NW of Edenvale Blvd. , SE of railroad, and north and west
of Woodhill Trail . (Ordinance No. 81-13 and Resolution No. 81-159)
City Council Minutes -5- August 18, 1981
Dick Krier, Westwood Planning and Engineering Company, representing
Edenvale and Equitable Life, spoke to the proposal . He said that the
new developer has taken on all the responsibilities of the earlier develop-
er of this property. Their intention is to create a cul-de-sac at the
northwest end of Kurtz Lane near the railroad track. This cul-de-sac would
allow emergency vehicles to get through but the barriers would be of a height
to discourage other vehicles.
Assistant Planner Johnson said this matter had been considered by the Planning
Commission at its June 22nd and July 13th meetings. A motion to approve the
preliminary plat failed.
Director of Community Services Lambert said the Parks , Recreation & Natural
Resources Commission had considered this at its August 3, 1981, meeting and
had recommended approval subject to the recommendations contained in the
Planning Staff repo,-t dated June 18, 1981 and Lambert's memo dated July 30,
1981.
Tangen asked if there is to be a totlot or a totlot structure in this
area. Lambert replied there would be a totlot structure at Edenvale Park.
Penzel said he was pleased to see that the request made by the Kurtz Lane a
residents north of Edenvale 14th had been responded to and that the developer
had decided to cul-de-sac Kurtz Lane. He said he thinks Edenvale Boulevard
should be extended to Townline Road; but that should be worked out with the
developer and not directly tied to this proposal .
Julie Schmandke, 6527 Kurtz Lane, expressed concern about Birch Island Road
connecting with Kurtz Lane. Birch Island Road is now a dirt road and that
discourages through traffic,
Cliff Thompson, 6559 Kurtz Lane, sees no advantage to continuing Kurtz Lane,
even for emergency vehicles.
Stan Mustanski , 6832 Woodhill Trail , wanted to know the estimated dollar
value of the proposed duplexes. Krier said they would be approximately
$75,000 per side or $150,000 for an entire unit,
Steve Cherne, 6931 Raven Court, asked that Valley View not be upgraded until
Edenvale Boulevard is extended.
Tony Hirt, 6533 Kurtz Lane, stated the railroad crossing at Kurtz Lane
is a private crossing. It is his feeling that a permanent solution to the
Edenvale traffic problem should be addressed. Penzel said that the Guide
Plan shows a crossing at this junction illustrating that road systems should
be tied together.
Pete Izmirian, 6540 Kurtz Lane, asked that a feasibility study be done
regarding the roads in the area .
City Council Minutes -6- August 18, 1981
Fred Curtis, 6500 Kurtz Lane, agreed that Edenvale Boulevard be extended
but had questions regarding the knock-down barriers at Kurtz Lane and the
railroad crossing. Penzel explained the barriers are of a height that would
be Knocked down by an emergency vehicle but would damage a car.
B.O. Hassel , 6827 Woodhill Trail , expressed his concerns.
MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Edstrom, to close the Public Hearing
and to give 1st Reading to Ordinance 81-13, rezoning from R1-13.5 to RM 6.5 for
approximately 15 of the 24 acres including all the suggestions contained in
Staff reports, the extension of Edenvale Boulevard in 1982,and a feasibility
study of Kurtz Lane. Motion carried unanimously.
MOTION: Edstrom moved, seconded by Tangen, to adopt Resolution No. 81-,153;
approving the preliminary plat of Edenvale 14th Addition, Motion carried
unanimously.
C. WOODLAWN HEIGHTS by LyEan Lumber, Request for PUD Concept approval . Located
in the southwest corner of ToWn ine Road and Duck Lake Road, (Resolution No.
81-160)
Dick Knutson, McCombs Knutson Co, , was present to make a presentation, He
stated that the ownership of 20 acres in the southwest corner, is cloudy.
They are willing to pay the assessments on this 20 acre piece.
Assistant Planner Johnson said that the request for preliminary platting
had been withdrawn and that only the PUD Concept approval is requested this
_ evening. The Planning Commission had reviewed the request at its 'July 13th
meeting at which time they moved to recommend its approval subject to the
conditions contained in the Staff Report of July 10, 1981 .
Director of Community Services Lambert reported the Parks , Recreation&
Natural Resources Commission had reviewed this at its July 20th meeting
and recommended its approval per the terms of the Planning Staff Report.
Penzel inquired about the upgrading of Townline Road to Duck Lake Road.
Jullie explained any upgrading would be based on a petition request for
a feasibility study from the abutting property owners.
Penzel wondered about the validity of a density transfer on land not owned
by a developer. Jullie said since the developer is willing to pay for the
assessments and other specials assessed against the property, this would be
a special consideration.
Penzel called attention to the letter from Minnetonka residents expressing
their concerns . In regard to the extension of the blacktop on Townline Road ,
Jullie explained it would be appropriate for the two cities to work together
to extend the blacktop if the County does not do so.
Paul Hladky, 6381 Duck Lake Road, would hate to see the wetlands disturbed,
-1
City Council Minutes -7- August 18, 1981
Don Jacobson, 6345 Duck Lake Road, questioned the 20 acres being used for
a density transfer. He also does not feel the property owners on the east
side of Duck Lake Road should have to pay for the upgrading of that road.
Jacobson said the marsh area contains water most of the time. He also said
that the blacktopping which has been done on Townline Road has created more
traffic on that road. Bentley said that one thing which should be looked into
before any further upgrading of Townline Road is done is the existing road pat-
tern -- particularly those from the north,
Edstrom inquired as to whether or not our Staff has discussed this proposal
with the Staff from Minnetonka. Johnson said they are aware of this project
as materials are exchanged between the two cities,
MOTION: Tangen moved, seconded by Edstrom, to close the Public Hearing and
to adopt Resolution No. 81-160, approving the Woodlawn Heights Planned! Unit
Development and amending the Guide Plan and the Major Center Area PUD, subject
to the recommendations contained in the Staff Report and satisfactory resolution :,
of the 20 acres under question. Motion carried unanimously.

1981, These memos , to the property owners in the Major Center Area' addressed
the Economic Development District and Tax Increment Financing for Improvements,

2. Consider resolution rescinding Resolution No-. 352 restricting home
construction until public improvements are constructed -- Nicholson
property on Valley Road Resolution No. 81-167
City Engineer Dietz spoke to the Nicholson request.
Mrs. Nicholson stated that several of the lots in the same area as
her lots have been sold and/or built on since this Resoltuion was
passed.
Edstrom wondered if an inequity was being created. The question of City
sewer and water not being available in this area is a consideration since
quite a few lots could be built on and would possibly create problems with
the well water and septic tanks.
Nicholson said that at least one piece of property had been subdivided
since 1970. Judie explained that that had been an administrative land
division. The particular lot in question has not been built on yet.
Tangen felt a true inequity had been created and questioned administrative
land divisions,
MOTION: Tangen moved,seconded by Edstrom, to defer this matter to Staff
to come up with a recommendation as to how to handle this issue and .sub-
sequent issues of this nature. This matter will be deferred to the Sep-
