PUBLIC HEARINGS A. BRYANT LAKE OFFICE/TECH CENTER by Welsh Cor oration. Request for PUD Amendment, with variances . rezoning from C-Regi o' naT Commercial to Office, and preliminary plat for 7.94 acres for office/service/storage facilities. Location: County Road 60 (Valley View Road) and Market Place Drive. (Ordinance No. 20-83 - rezoning and Resolution No. 83-108 - preliminary plat) City Council Minutes -3- May 17 , 1983 City Manager Jullie stated notice of this Public Hearing had been published and notices had been sent to the affected property owners . Wally Hustad, owner of the land proposed for development, addressed the proposal. Dennis Doyle, Welsh Construction, explained what their company does noting the buildings would be owner-occupied. Darrell Anderson, landscape architect, reviewed the site and site plan. Bob Roscoe, The Design Collective and architect for The Creative Resource Center building, discussed the design of that building. Will Ahern, business manager for The Creative Resource Center, gave some background as to the nature of their company. Russ Hagen, Data Recognition Corpor- ation, explained what his company does. Hustad then summarized the - project which will provide a variety of types of businesses within one area; a cross-fertilization of commerce. Planning Director Enger noted the Planning Commission had reviewed this proposal at its April 25, 1983, meeting at which time it voted to recommend approval subject to the recommendations included in the April 22, 1983, i Staff Report. This request had not been reviewed by the Parks, Recreation A Natural Commission. E Penzel suggested the words "wood and brick" be added to item 4 of the p recommendation included in the Planning Staff Report (to read: The office building should be of the same exterior material - wood and brick - as the majority of the industrial buildings. ) Penzel asked about when the eastern cul-de-sac would be completed. Enger said that would occur sometime in the future to provide access to Outlot C; it would necessitate platting of the adjacent property. Penzel questioned whether or not it would be a good idea to require basic construction of that at this time. Hustad said he will be in with a petition for that roadway once this request has been granted. Bentley asked if this is the appropriate site for this type of development. He wondered if there might be a need for a new type of zone which would reflect this type of development, the type which would allow a combination of uses. Enger said the I-2 District allows up to 50% office use. The Planning Commission, he noted, had discussed a high technology/office district; which would allow some manufacturing, some storage and the remainder would be office. The types of uses in this type of district would be identified and limited. Redpath expressed concern about the second and third uses which might come into these buildings. He cited the uses which are now included in the McGlynn Building on Mitchell Road which had not been intended when approval was granted. Hustad said that was of concern to him also. There were no comments from the audience. 'alp. City Council Minutes -4- May 17, 1983 MOTION: Bentleymoved Redpath seconded to close the Public Hearin and P . 9 to give 1st Reading to Ordinance No. 20.83. Motion carried unanimously. MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to adopt Resolution No. 83-108, approving the preliminary plat of Bryant Lake Office/Tech Center for Welsh Construction, Inc. and to direct Staff to prepare the Developer's Agreement taking into consideration the recommendations included in the Staff Report and those of the Planning Commission and the City Council . , Redpath asked how restrictions regarding future use might be placed on the property. City Attorney Pauly said the owner of the property would have to agree to impose deed restrictions. Penzel suggested this be looked at prior to 2nd Reading of the Ordinance. VOTE ON THE MOTION: Motion carried unanimously. MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Tangen, to direct the Planning Commission to review the necessity for a new zoning category which would reflect the office/manufacturing/storage use. Motion carried unanimously. B. LION'S TAP. Request for zoning of five acres from Rural to Highway Commer- cial for use as a restaurant. Location: north of Highway 169-212, west of County Road 4. (Ordinance No. 19-83) City Manager Jullie said notice of this Public Hearing was published and notices hdd been sent to owners within the project vicinity. Bert Notermann . owner of Lion' s Tap, addressed the request. Jam Ostenson, Tandem Corporation, was also present. Rick Sathre, Sathre-Bergquist, Inc. , spoke to the grading of the slope for the parking lot. Director of Planning Enger said this request had been considered by the Planning Commission at its April 11, 1983, and April 25, 1983, meetings. At the April llth meeting the Planning Staff Report recommended denial of the request and instead allow the Lion 's Tap to continue as a non-conforming use. The Planning Commission gave direction to the Staff that the Lion' s Tap be allowed to continue; in the event that the building were to burn down it should be allowed to continue. The second Staff Report included recommendations along those lines. The Planning Commission at its April 25th meeting voted (5-2) to recommend approval of the rezoning request subject to the recommendations included in the April 22, 1983, Staff Report and subject to additional items as noted in the Planning Commission Minutes of April 25, 1983. Director of Community Services Lambert said this request had been reviewed by the Parks, Recreation & Natural Resources Commission at its May 2, 1983, meeting at which time it voted to recommend approval subject to the con- ditions as noted in the Minutes of the Parks , Recreation & Natural Resources Commission's meeting of May 2, 1983. City Council Minutes -5- May 17, 1983 Bentley asked how many acres were to be included in the rezoning. Enger said the request was for five acres but the Planning Commission 'l had suggested that a smaller area be rezoned. Bentley inquired as� to the number of parking spaces involved. Encler said there would be 60 in . the upper parking. lot plus 3 handicapped spaces closer to the building. Bentley said he would like to see the County find the funds to relocate County Road 4. Penzel asked what the cost might be for F straightening that intersection (County 4 and TH 169). Notermann said the County has indicated it could eventually pay for the improvement out of its maintenance budget which inriirAfaA tha yYct wnsild nn1- be sooks+an+,uat „ - .�+ ..VM VV. .lY V.i.r 411...IJI • 1 1 V Anderson said this is a non-conforming use which does not fit in with the Guide Plan. He said he realizes Lion's Tap is and has been important to the community. He stated the Council has turned down proposals on the bluffs in the past. He wondered if by approving this request that stance would be negated. Penzel said he wondered if this plan was preferable over any of the others. Anderson said the proposed improvement would mean more cars , more traffic; does the Council want growth of this type in that area. Bentley said he had served on the committee which put together the Bluff's Ordinance. He said there were two items to consider in determining whether or not a minimal encroachment into the bluffs in this area should occur: 1) would this be an improvement in public health and welfare, and 2) whether k it provides the City with the ability, through rezoning, to control develop- ment and design of any expansion, and thus imrove the image of the community. He said that in his mind this rezoning proposal met both conditions. Redpath said this proposal is a case of asking Notermann to seek a solution as the result of a request from the County in regard to parking. He felt there would not be much disturbance of the bluff. He said the bad part was that Lion' s Tap would be upgraded and lose some of its charm. Tangen suggested covenants so it would remain as it is -- and not be sold to a chain. He said he would support the proposal even though it is not ideal . He stated it will help to alleviate a problem which exists . Bentley said he tends to support the proposal also. Enger said it might be proper for the Council to have the proponent go before the Board of Appeals and whatever other agencies it deems necessary prior to 2nd Reading of the Ordinance. Penzel said he felt there should be a commitment on the part of the proponent to participate in the relocation of County Road 4 since the existence of the proponent's business had helped to create the traffic problem. This should be done concurrently with the parking lot project, Sathre said to say the Lion's Tap created the problem is not correct. He stated Notermann has gone ahead and agreed-,to. purchase the property necessary from Sever Peterson. The proponent has done a great deal to try to solve a public problem. Penzel stated the tax payer usually has to contribute to specific improvements for which he is the benefactor; he felt Lion 's Tap would be the benefactor of the County Road 4 improvements and should contribute to those costs. Enger said the County position is that it does not feel the intersection is a hazardous one. Redpath said the County initiated the request and now they say it isn't a hazard. Notermann said if the County were to admit it is a hazard it would then assume liability in the case of an accident, City Council Minutes -6- May 17, 1983 i. James VanWinkle, 10129 Eden Prairie Road, said he would like to see Lion's Tap expanded; he supports the proposal . } �Y Sever Peterson, 15900 Flying Cloud Road, stated he had spoken with all the residents on Spring Road and with a number of "old" families in Eden Prairie: All concurred that the Lion' s Tap was an asset to the community F and should be allowed to expand. He noted he has lived in Eden Prairie all of his life and Lion's Tap was built by his father and uncle as a vegetable market. He said the County Road 4ITH 169 intersection is a hazard but the presence of the Lion'.s Tap is not. Most of the traffic Problem, h2 iivt2d, - — . 3.'T:. an8-..- again at - n_m. while the busiest i time at Lion's Tap is during the noon hour. He felt the Lion's Tap is a definite benefit to the neighborhood. k MOTION: Tangen moved, seconded by Redpath, to close the Public Hearing and to give 1st Reading to Ordinance No. 19-83; and to direct Staff to prepare the Developer's Agreement subject to the recommendations included in the Staff Report, those of the Planning Commission and the Parks, Recre- ation & Natural Resources Commission, and those of the City Council including the processing of the Guide Plan change with the preliminary plat and the provision that this request is for the Lion's Tap only. Motion carried ` with Anderson voting "no. " C. LORENCE ADDITION by Associated Investments•, Inc. Request for comprehensive guide plan change from low to medium density for rezoning from Rural to RM-6. 5 for 4.725 acres for 31 condominium units. Location; Duck Lake Road and Valley View Road. (Resolution No, 83,109 T comprehensive guide plan change and Ordinance No. 21-83 rezoning) ' City Manager Jullie said notice of this Public Hearing had been published and notices had been sent to property owners within the project vicinity. Tom Robertson, Associated. Investments;' Inc. , reviewed the request. Planning Director Enger stated the Planning Commission had reviewed this request at its April 25, 1983, meeting at which time it voted to recommend approval of the comprehensive guide plan change and rezoning from Rural to RM 6.5 subject to the recommendations included in the April 22, 1983, Staff Report. Director of Community Services , Lambert noted the Parks ; Recreation & Natural Resources Commission had reviewed this request at its May 2, 1983, meeting at which time it voted to recommend approval subject to the recommendations included in the Staff Report and with the suggestion that the developer, do additional landscaping around the pond to create more of an amenity, Penzel said the Guide Plan shows this as single family use. He felt it had been indicated the railroad tracks would provide a natural barrier so multi family housing would not be developed west of that point. He said from the standpoint of consistency he must oppose this proposal . City Council Minutes -7- May 17, 1983 Redpath said he did not know whether or not this proposal was right for this area but he felt it was wrong to say that this area of the City should not have this type of housing available. Penzel said he felt there were certain areas within the City which are more suitable for townhouses and condominiums. Ender said the Planning 'Commission felt this was a self con- ' tained site, adjacent to public facilities (parks , schools, churches and the community center) , and transportation. This , he said, appears to be an ideal site for what is proposed. t Don Peterson, .,_ner of the ---party, noted the cost of the lots is too much for single homes to be built on •the property. He reviewed the. concept for this area. He noted this is a fairly low density townhouse Y style. Bentley said he likes the manor homes which are being built to the east a of this site. He concurred that the northwest sector of the community does not have any significant multiple housing, There were no comments from the audience, ` MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Anderson.' to close the Public Hearing. Motion carried unanimously. MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Bentley, to adopt Resolution No. 83-109, amending the comprehensive municipal plan, Motion carried with Penzel voting "no " MOTION: Redpath moved t seconded by Anderson; to give 1st Reading to Ordinance I No. 21-83. Motion carried with Penzel voting "no, '� MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Tangen, to direct Staff to draft the Developer' s Agreement taking into consideration the recommendations, included in the Staff Report and those of the Planning Commission; the Parks, Recreatio & Natural Resources Commission and the City Council , Motion carried unanimousl. D. AMENDMENT TO DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT N0 1 AND AMENDMENTS TO TAX INCREMENT DISTRICT S. 1, ' 3 and AND ADOPTION- ' INCREMENT DISTRICT NO',' 5 eso i o TVos. 83-100 an -1 1 City Manager Jullie noted notice of this Public Hearing had been published, He stated the overall Tax Increment Financing District Amendments as recommen- ded by bond counsel , O'Connor & Hannan., and reviewed by City Attorney Pauly's office, are required because of 1982 statutory changes in the tax increment financing laws. Tax Increment District No, 5 covers increments from the ChernE Construction and Kentucky Fried Chicken projects, City Attorney Pauly reviewed the procedure and documents to be adopted, He noted the evidence introduced and as described in the minutes of September 15, 1981, is made a part of the record in these proceedings . Also made a part of the record in these proceedings are the notice of the public hearing; minutes of meetings of the City Council held on September 22, 1981 , March 30, 1982, November 16. 1982, arru March 15, 1983:. letter from Eden Prairie Chamber of Commerce dated September 18 1981; minutes of meetings of the City's Plannin City Council Minutes -8- May 17, 1983 Commission on March 29, 1982 and May 9, 1983; two memoranda dated March 15, 1983, and two memoranda dated May 11 . 1983 by Eugene A.

Jullie, City Manager. Jullie noted several revised pages which were distributed to the Council members . Pauly noted the action of the Planning Commission on May 9, 1983, was to s affirm that. the. revised tax increment financing plan does conform to the comprehensive plan for development of the City. Tax increment district no. 5 includes the Kentucky Fried Chicken building and the Cherne Construc- tion building which is being constructed. z There were no comments from the audience. MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Anderson' to close the Public Hearing and to adopt Resolution No. 83-100, providing for further modification of the development program for Development District No, 1 and the tax increment financing plans for Tax Increment Districts Nos . 1 , 2 ; 3, and 4 located therein.

REPORTS OF ADVISORY COMMISSIONS There were no reports . VII . ORDINANCES & RESOLUTIONS A. First consideration of an ordinance establishing a fee for connecting to the sanitary sewer and water system Ordinance No. 18-83 City Manager Jullie said the purpose of this Ordinance is to establish a fee in lieu of the prior special assessment for connecting to the City sanitary sewer and water system. Director of Public Works Dietz addressed his memorandum of May 11. , 1983, in which he reviewed the connection fee ordinance. City Council Minutes -9- May 17, 198371 Jullie noted that people who will be connecting to City sewer and water will know how much they will be paying. City Attorney Pauly stated there are situations where it is difficult to impose this kind of charge on the land; for example construction of sewer n and water other than if a local improvement under Chapter 429. The statute under which this Ordinance is based provides the method for im- posing a charge for these services. 5 Bentley asked if this meant the assessing process was being circumvented and thereby the right of appeal . Pauly said upon notice to the owner of the proposed charge the owner may request a hearing by the Council% If the owner wishes, he would have recourse to a court to review the Council ' s decision and whether it is in accord with the Ordinance and the enabling statute. While procedurally the hearing and court review are similar to that in the assessment process there are substantive differences. The principal difference is that in the assessment proceeding, the test is whether;. the benefit to the property equals the proposed assessment. In a connection k charge proceeding the charge must be upon a comparable basis per front foot and/or area as assessments for public improvements against other properties in the district or neighborhood, or if none, upon an estimated or levied uniform charge. a Pat Lueck, 6381 Duck Lake Road, presented a letter to the Council (see . attached) in which he objected to the adoption of the proposed Ordinance, specifically the language as proposed. Don Jacobson, 6345 Duck Lake Road, questioned the rationale for charging the amount to be charged when the City has no expense involved. Dietz further explained the procedure. i Marshall Oaks, Ruscon (developer) , stated Ruscon is attempting to get right-of-entry. He asked if a credit is given if a landowner gives per- 4 mission for right-of-entry. Dietz said that might be possible. Jullie said the City might be able to work out some equitable arrangement which could then be applied to the assessment. Dietz explained this is not an assessment but rather a connection fee with the provision that payments towards the cost can be made over a period of time. MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Anderson; to give 1st Reading to Ordinance No. 18-83. Motion carried with Bentley voting 'no." VIII . PETITIONS, REQUESTS & COMMUNICATIONS A.

Communication from Hennepin County Park Reserve District Director of Community Services Lambert reviewed what previous policy had been in regard to limits relative to power boats on Bryant Lake, He also addressed a letter of May 11 , 1983, to City Manager Jullie, MOTION: Redpath moved, seconded by Tangen, to authorize Staff to work with the Hennepin County Park Reserve District and the residents to resolve the issue. Motion carried unanimously. F_ Ro_nn_rt of Finanro nircrtnr t • 1. Clerk's License List City Manager Jullie noted the request from Mr, and Mrs, MacCharies for a mobile veterinary clinic which was listed on the license list. City Attorney Pauly stated the application is for a solicitor' s license which is in connection with the rendition of some veterinary o services -- limited to innoculation of dogs and cats. These services would be offered at various locations in the City at specific times. No specific permit location is intended. The method in which the activity is carried out necessitates a solicitor's license. Under the laws which license veterinarians there is a provision which states it is not permissible for a corporation to practice veterinary medi- cine unless it is organized under a certain statute. Under that pro- vision each of the shareholders must be a license veterinarian. It would appear that this corporation would not be able to render this service under State law and this would be an impediment to ob- taining a license from the City. Rod MacCharies, Minnetrista, proponent, and his wife, Virginia, ! reviewed the contacts they had made prior to advertising that the clinics would be held at certain times at two locations in Eden Prairie. MacCharies went over the procedures he and his wife had gone through to this point. MOTION: Bentley moved, seconded by Redpath, to continue the meeting beyond the 11:30 p.m. time limit. Motion carried unanimously. Redpath asked who would keep the records of the services provided. MacCharies said he would, Mrs. MacCharies said she was requesting a solicitor's license so she Gould hire a veterinarian to provide a service, she noted that 65% of the animals are not vaccinated and this is who they are attempting to service. She said she had not indicated to the State that their service would be incorporated. Bentley noted the MacCharles are not allowed to "peddle" under State law. Pauly concurred and added that economic protection of any local veterinarian is not a proper grounds to deny a license and cannot be considered by the Council . City Council Minutes -12- May 17. 1983 Tangen noted the State licensure does give protection to the person who is using the service. He stated that from a professional stand- point it is important to know the professional person one is using. MOTION: Anderson moved, seconded by. Bentley, to approve the Clerk's License List except for the M. R. MacCharles' application for a soli- citor' s license. Motion carried unanimously. X. NEW BUSINESS ; There was none. XI . ADJOURNMENT MOTION: Anderson moved, seconded by Tangen, to ajourn the meeting at 11:55 p.m. Motion carried unanimously.
