Swimming pool permit for David Littlefield of 24775 Glen
Road.
Haugen moved, seconded by Gagne, to approve the two items
listed on the Consent Agenda. Motion carried - 5 ayes.
CATHCART AREA PROJECT WITHDRAWN
Council reviewed the cost of the storm sewer and street im-
provement project in relationship to the cost to the affected
residents. Gagne felt that only patching should be done to
roads other than the roads affected by the water extension.
These roads will be fixed in conjunction with the water line
installation from Boulder bridge to Shorewood Oaks.
Haugen moved, seconded by Stover, to discontinue proposed
t plans on Project 85-1. Motion carried - 4 ayes - 1 abstain
(Shaw).
Mr. Daily asked for clarification of the water line route to
the Shorewood Oaks project. Engineer Mogan located the proposed
line on a city map. He traced over Smithtown Road, Cajed Lane,
Beverly Drive, a portion of Cathcart Drive to Strawberry Circle,
and part of abandoned railroad right-of-way to Maple Ave. across
Strawberry Lane to the project location. Rascop stated that the
ShorewoodOaks developer was paying for the total cost of the
line extension. There would be no assessment charged to any
residents along the line until they wanted to hook up to the
service.
NEAR MOUNTAIN DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
Developers Pete Pflaum and Mike Pflaum and their engineer, Rick
Sather, app~ared to request acceptance of their Development
Agreement. Staff has recommended acceptance of the agreement
that includes a different type of security rather than a letter
of credit in lieu of a bond, they will use a performance guar-
antee. Froberg explained how this 4-part arrangement operates,
and how it would protect the City and cover the costs of im-
provements if the developer did not complete the project.
Pflaum indicated that he has used this form of security in
other projects and it has worked very well. Shaw had concerns
that the City may be setting policy and may have to accept this
form of guarantee from anyone who may request it. Council would
continue to have total authority to determine what type of se-
curity is needed on a case by case basis.

NEAR MOUNTAIN DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT - continued
Gagne moved, seconded by Shaw, to approve the use of the form
of security, on the Near Mountain project. Motion carried -
5 ayes.
Council reviewed the Development Agreement and made various
wording changes to be corrected in the final copy of the a-
greement. Pflaum requested to expand his first phase and
plans to have his subsequent phases approved one phase ahead
of development so as not to slow down the construction. The
final phase arrangement will be attached to the development
agreement. Haugen would like to see that the Fire Department
and Police Department are contacted and are in agreement with
the proposed road plans, for the best protective services to
this development.
APPROVAL OF THE NEAR MOUNTAIN DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT-RESOLUTION NO. 34-86
Gagne moved, seconded by Haugen, to approve the agreement as
amended. Motion carried unanimously - 5 ayes.
COUNCIL BREAK
Council break for student interviews. 8:40 P.M. - 8:50 P.M.
BOULDER BRIDGE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AMENDMENT - RESOLUTION NO. 35-86
Administrator Vogt and Attorney Froberg explained to the Council
the various changes made in the Development Agreement with
Boulder Bridge. Shorewood Oaks will extend the water line to
their project, paying all costs of the line. They will not
have to pay any connection fees to Boulder Bridge, but at the
time that other properties along their line connect, they will
remit $4000.00 to Boulder Bridge developers. This $4000 was
determined as equal cost to the installation of a new well.
Calculations were also agreed upon for additional hook-up
where line extensions are necessary. Total payback figure
plus interest for developers oversizing cost has been estab-
lished at $158,000 plus interest to date. This agreement ex-
tends the payback per connection time to expire on June 23, 1998.

SHOREWOOD OAKS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT - RESOLUTION NO. 36-86
Council reviewed the Development Agreement for Shorewood Oaks
project. The Engineer explained the storm sewer system. He
indicated that perimeter tiling, both inside and outside,
would be installed. The interior tile would require sump
pump installation that would dump out onto the lawns. Shaw
would like to insure that these sump pumps are not connected
at any time to the sanitary sewer system. Gagne asked if the
City would end up being responsible for maintenance of the
storm sewer system, if so additional costs to the properties
serviced by this system should pay additional operating charges.
Norton stated that this utility would be turned over along with
the other improvements.
Gagne moved, seconded by Haugen to approve the Development
Agreement with ShoreKood Oaks as amended to include a main-
tainance charge for the storm sewer utility. Motion carried
by Roll Call Vote - 5 ayes.
Rascop reviewed for the audience the terms of the agreement
with Boulder Bridge and Shorewood Oaks. He also reviewed the
water connection costs, $4000 maximum, to residents outside
the project areas. Bids will be let June 1st with installa-
tion available in August.
PLANNERS REPORT

p~- ~J.ld Mrs. Nelson were present to request issuance of a
building permit to add an entry/sunroom combination and deck
replacement. Due to title problems with the Tingewood sub-
division, Nielsen indicated that a variance would be needed
at this time, but after the title problems are straightened
out and a combination of his property is completed, a vari-
ance will not be needed.
Stover moved, seconded by Shaw, to direct the staff to issue
the building permit at this time subject to the combination
of his property as soon as the title problems are properly
cleared up. Motion carried unanimously - 5 ayes.
TINGEWOOD DEVELOPERS REQUEST FOR REINSTATEMENT OF BUILDING PERMIT
AND P.U.D. ZONING

the Council to reinstate their building permit and P.U.D. zOning
classification at this time. They have agreed to complete the
12 requirements requested by Planner Nielsen, but need the re-
instatement prior to completion to insure that the Bank of

AND P.U.D. ZONING (cont.)
Johnson. Harmsen stated that Mr. Erickson was purchasing lots
1-10 and that Clarkes will have Lot 11, and Nelsons - Lot 12.

clearance of the title problems regarding all Tingewood prop-
erties and favors further discussion with the developers and
contractor for consideration of a new request for P.U.D at
the time of completion of the 12 items listed at the Council
meeting of April 14, 1986. After recommendation of Planner
Nielsen, Shaw amended his motion to consider "reinstatement"
of P.U.D rather than consider "new" request for P.U.D. Seconder
Haugen accepted the amendment.
Rascop offered an amendment to Shaw's motion, to read "rein-
state" P.U.D. rather than "consider" reinstatement at the com-
pletion of required 12 items previously listed. No second was
offered.
rShaw's motion was approved - 5 ayes.
Nielsen questioned the continuation of occupancy by a renter
in one of the units. The Council felt that the tenant should
be out within 30 days unless the 12 items are completed, at
which time he will be able to stay.

Consider putting in security lighting.
BUYING TREES
The City of Shorewood would like to know if the Park Commission would be interested in
buying the trees left over from their tree sale. The Park Commission is not intetested
,
in purchasing trees at this time because they want to develop their landscape plan first

BMX TRACK SCHEDULE
The Park Commission had discussed the BMX schedule at an earlier date and decided not
to limit the number of races as there were no complaints last year. A letter was
received from BMX stating that they would use the satellite at Freeman unless they
found out it was necessary to order one of their own, at which time they would order
one.
Jurgens moved, Vogel seconded, to recommend to Council that as long as the noise level
doesn't infringe upon the neighborhood everything will remain alright, but if the noise
level reaches a nuisance level, then the North Star BMX will either lower the level
immediately or cease operation. Motion carried unanimously.
TONKA UNITED SOCCER ASSOCIATION REQUEST TO USE FIELD
A letter, dated April 27, 1986,.~as received from the Tonka United Soccer Association
requesting permission to use the Badger and Cathcart hockey rinks for its 1986
soccer season from approximately 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM, Monday through Thursday evenings
from May 1 through July 31, 1986. They also enclosed a copy of their insurance.
They stated that if there are any questions, or if this is not acceptable, to please
call Dean Martinson at 474-7609 or Carrie Tietz at 474-3011.
Jakel ~oved, Jurgens seconded, to recommend to Council that they approve use of the
Badger and Cathcart hockey rinks with the contingency that the Tonka United Soccer
Association meet the City of Shorewood's insurance requirements. Motion carried
unanimously. (Note-they are already using the rinks for play)
BADGER PARK FOOTBALL FIELD - CROWNING
Jurgens moved, Lindstrom seconded, to recommend to Council that:
1. the City provides the dirt for crowning the field, either through Public Works or
by contract (approximately 100 yards at approximately $6 a yard = $600),
2. the City provides professional rough grading at approximately $45 per hour for
approximately 4 hours,
3. the Minnetonka Youth Football Association provides all seed, fertilizer, and
final grooming with all labor provided by MHFA,
4. the staking and grading plan will be provided by Commissioner Jurgens,
s. Council grant approval at the meeting of the 12th so that the field can be
finished by the 19th.
Motion carried unanimously.

The Commission asked Sue to contact Carl from Excelsior and get more information regard-
ing the lighting.

HOOPS, ALBERT - SIMPLE SUBDIVISION
405 (86.12)
Mr. Albert Hoops has requested approval to divide his
property located at 26675 Smithtown Road (see Site Loca-
tion map - Exhibit A, attached). The site contains approx-
imately 107,190 square feet in area, is zoned R-1A, Single-
Family Residential and is currently occupied by the
applicant's home.
Mr. Hoops proposes to divide the property into two lots
as shown on Exhibit B, attached.
ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION
Mr. Hoops' request is relatively simple in that it complies
with all requirements of the Shorewood Zoning Ordinance.
Following is how the proposed division compares with the
requirements of the R-1A district:
~~g~.?:.E.~.9. Parcel A Parcel B
-------- --------
Lot area: 40,000 sq. ft. 54,140 53,050
Lot width: 120 ft. 150 147
Lot depth: 150 ft . 348.6 348.6
In addition to exceeding the minimum requirements
size, the existing house will exceed the setback
ments for the R-1A district (50' front and rear,
for lot
require-
10' sides).

Re: Albert Hoops Subdivision
29 April 1986
Mr. Hoops' reque~t is considered to be consistent with the
zoning requiremen~s and existing development in the area
in which it is lQ~ated. It is therefore recommended that
the division be a~proved subject to the following conditions~
1. The applicant must submit an up-to-date title
opinion (within the last 30 days) subject to
satisfactory review and approval by the City
Attorney.
2. The applicant must provide drainage and utility
easements, 10 feet along each side and rear lot
1 i n e .
3. A park dedication fee ($500) must be paid prior to
the City's release of the resolution approving the
division. It should be noted that credit has been
allowed for the lot with the existing house.
4. The applicant must record the division with Hennepin
County within 30 days of his receipt of the resolu-
tion approving the division.

MEMORANDUM
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION, MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BRAD NIELSEN
DATE: 2 MAY 1986
RE: FORSS, JOHN - SIMPLE SUBDIVISION
FILE NO.: 405 (86.18)
bACKGROUND
Mr. John Forss has applied for a simple subdivision of his property
located at 25380 Smithtown Road (see Site Location map - Exhibit A,
attached). The property in question is currently zoned R-1C, Single-
Family Residential, contains approximately 187,800 square feet in area
(4.3 acres) and is occupied by a single-family dwelling. As shown on
Exhibit B the applicant proposes to divide off the 71,900 square feet
with the house on it, leaving 115,900 square feet to the north which
would front on Wedgewood Drive.
ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION
Since the proposed lot division meets the standards for the R-1C
zoning district, the request is considered relatively simple. There
are two issues, however, which need to be addressed. First, the
right-of-way for Wedgewood Drive is substandard in width. It was
originally 40 feet in width prior to the platting of Harding Acres
on the east side of the street, at which time five feet of r.o.w. was
acquired in the platting process. The same requirement should be made
of Mr. Forss' property which would bring the street up to the stan-
dard 50 foot width between Smithtown Road and the regional trail cor-
ridor.
Secondly, since the northerly parcel has potential for further division,
a resubdivision sketch has been prepared showing how it might be de-
veloped in the future (see Exhibit C, attached). It should be noted
that this sketch is intended only to show one way in which the site can
developed. While there are undoubtedly other ways to do it, it appears
that four lots is the most which could be developed.

Re: John Forss Subdivision
2 May 1986
It is recommended that the applicant's request should be granted sub-
ject to the following:
1. Any future division of the property must be done by formal plat-
ting rather than by metes and bounds description.
2. The applicant must submit an up-to-date (within 30 days) title
opinion for review and approval by the City Attorney.
3. The applicant should be required to deed five additional feet
of right-of-way easement along Wedgewood Drive.
4. Drainage and utility easements must be provided 10 feet along
each of the west, north, and east property lines of the parcel
containing the house. On the east side, this would be in addi-
tion to the five foot road easement.
5. One park dedication fee ($500) must be paid prior to release of
the Council resolution approving the division. Credit is given
for the lot with the house on it.
6. The division must be recorded within 30 days of the applicant's
feceipt of the resolution approving the division.

MARTINETTO, TOM - SIMPLE SUBDIVISION/
COMBINATION AND SETBACK VARIANCE
405 (86.10)
Mr. Tom Martinetto owns Lots 9 and 10, Block 9, Minnetonka
Mano~ located at approximately 21055 Ivy Lane (see Site
Location map - Exhibit A, attached). The east side of Mr.
Martinetto's property is quite low, which reduces the build-
able area of the lot considerably. Concerned about exces-
sive site alteration and potential drainage problems, the
applicant proposes to trade land with his neighbor to the
west in order to enlarge his buildable area. As can be
seen on Exhibit B, Mr. Martinetto proposes to trade the
south approximately 70 feet of his lots for the north 96
feet of Lot 11 to the west. In addition to the subdivision/
combination, the applicant has requested a front yard set-
back variance allowing him to avoid the low spot and mini-
mize filling.
The property in question currently contains approximately
15,560 square feet while the neighboring property contains
16,750 square feet. After the division/combination is
made, Mr. Martinetto will have approximately 13,491 square
feet and his neighbor will have 18.820 square feet. The
lots are zoned R-1D, Single-Family Residential.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
In evaluatjng ~he applicant's request the following issues
should be considered:
A. Subdivision/Combination. Despite the L-shaped lot
configuration which will result from the applicant's
request, the rearrangement is considered a signifi-
cant improvement for both parties. In addition to

---------------------------~---
the top 0 g rap h i cpr 0 b 1 ems w i.t.h the a p p 1 i can t ' s
property, the neighboring property is virtually
~nbuild~ble due to its naT~ow width. This is
illustrated on Exhibit C. Exhibit D shows the
buildable area of the lots after rearrangement
of the property lines.
It is worth noting that both of the resulting lots
will comply with the lot size requirements of the
R-1D zoning district.
B. ~~~~~~~_~~E~~~~~~ The front yard setback for the
R-1D district is 30 feet. The applicant has re-
quested an 11.5 foot variance which would result in
an 18.5 foot setback. Besides the topographic con-
cern on the east side of the lot, two other factors
suggest that the variance is justified.
First, Section 200.03 Subd.4d. of the Zoning Or-
dinance provides:
"Where adjacent residential structures within
the same block have front yard setbacks dif-
ferent from those required, the front yard
minimum setback shall be the average of the
adjacent structures. If there is only one
adjacent structure, the front yard minimum
setback shall be the average of the required
setback and the setback of the adjacent struc-
ture."
Secondly, the rights-of-way for Ferncroft
Ivy Lane are both 60 feet. This provides
10 feet (five on each side of the street)
space.

RECOMMENDATION
As mentioned, Mr. Martinetto's proposal results in an im-
provement of both his and his neighbor's lots. Based on
the preceding analysis it is recommended that the subdivi-
sion and setback variance be granted subject to the follow-
ing:

1. The applicant and the adjoining property awner ~ust
submit up-to-date title opinions (within the last
30 days) for review and approval by the City A~~or-

2. Given drainage problems in the area in question,
the division should be subject to review and appro-

3. The applicant and adjoining property owner mustpro-

RE: PHELPS, RICHARD - C.U.P. FOR GARAGE SPACE IN EXCESS OF
1000 SQUARE FEET
FILE NO.: 405 (86.11)
BACKGROUND
Pursuant to Section 200.03 Subd. 2d.(4) of the Shorewood Zoning
Ordinance, Mr. Richard Phelps has requested a conditional use permit
to build garage space in excess of 1000 square feet of area on his
property located at 27420 Blue Ridge Lane (see Site Location map -
Exhibit A, attached). The subject property is zoned R-1A, Single-
Family Residential.
Mr. Phelps currently has a two-car garage attached to his house. In
addition to storing his lawn tractor, snowmobiles, etc,. the appli-
cant proposes to store his two collector automobiles in the new
building.
ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION
Exhibit B shows the location of the proposed garage relative to his
existing house and garage. The "footprint" of the house contains
approximately 1663 square feet of area. The existing garage contains
528 square feet and the proposed garage contains 768 square feet.
Following is how the applicant's request complies with the Zoning
Ordinance:
a. The total area of accessory buildings (1296 square feet)
does not exceed the floor area of the first story of the
principal structure (1663 square feet).

b. The total area of accessory buildings does not exceed

c. The existing and proposed structures comply with the
setbacks of the R~lA zoning district.
d. The new garage will have the same architectural appearance
as the existing house and garage (see Exhibit C).
In addition to the preceding, the proposed building extends forward
of the existing garage. This tends to break up the physical mass of
the structures.

FROM: BRAD NIELSEN
DATE: 29 April 1986
RE: AHLM, GREG - C.U.P. TO EXPAND A NONCONFORMING STRUCTURE
FILE NO.: 405 (86.13)
BACKGROUND
Mr. Greg Ahlm has requested a building permit to build a second story
room addition on his home at 23360 Academy Avenue. (see Site Loca-
tion map - Exhibit A, attached) Since the house is only eight feet
from the front property line (see Exhibit B, attached), it exists as
a nonconforming structure and requires a conditional use permit to
be expanded.
The property is located in the R-1D zoning district. At 10,800
square feet in area it complies with the lot area requirement of the
district. However, the site is substandard in terms of lot width
(55 feet tapering to 35 feet instead of the required 75 feet). The
existing house does comply with side and rear setback requirements.
ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION
Exhibits C and 0 are sketches of the proposed addition prepared by
the applicant. Since the addition will be built entirely behind the
required 30 foot setback line, the non~onformity of the house will
not be increased. This is consistent with Section 200.03 Subd. 1k.
of the Shorewood Zoning Ordinance.
While the Ordinance provides that discrepancies in setbacks may be
required to be made up on the opposite side of the property (see
Section 200.03 Subd. lk.(5) this requirement is not considered
necessary given the depth of the property in question.
In view of its compliance with the Shorewood Zoning Ordinance it is
recommended that the applicant's request be granted as submitted.

GILBERTSON, JOHN - SETBACK VARIANCES
405 (86. 16 )
Mr. John Gilbertson has requested setback variances to build an
attached garage and utility room addition on his property located
at 450 West Lake Street (see Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached).
As you can see, the property is divided by the Shorewood/Excelsior
border, with the majority of the site located in Excelsior.
The portion of the site located in Shorewood is currently zoned R-1A.
Single-Family Residential. Surrounding land use and zoning are as
follows:
West - Minnetonka Portable Dredging, zoned R-1A (nonconforming use)
North - Lake Minnetonka, then single-family residential located
in Excelsior
East - single-family residential located in Excelsior
South - West Lake Street then the abandoned railroad right-of-way
(currently used as part of the regional trail system)
Exhibit B shows the location of Mr. Gilbertson's existing house and
the proposed garage. He has requested a side yard variance of 12.5
feet (the Ordinance requires 20 feet for lakeshorelots) and a front
yard variance of 26.5 feet (50 feet is required). The applicant's
justification for the variances is contained in his request letter,
dated 7 April 1986 (see Exhibit C, attached).
Rp..~idential Communitvon Lake Minnetonka's South Shore

.
.
Re: John Gilbertson variances
27 Apri 1 1986
ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION
Given the surrounding land uses, the applicant's property relates
more to the residential area east of it in Excelsior, than to the
commercial/industrial activities west of it in Shorewood. The size
of the property, approximately 11,375 square feet in area, is also
more consistent with the Excelsior lots to the east. To impose R-1A
setbacks on that size of a lot does indeed result in a hardship for
the owner.
Despite the setback variance, there will be adequate space for two
cars to be parked in the driveway while still leaving room for snow-
plowing on the street. A positive result of granting the variance
is that the garage will serve as a buffer between the residential
property in Excelsior and the dredging site in Shorewood.
In view of the preceding, it is recommended that the applicant's
garage be built in accordance with Excelsior's zoning requirements
for the property east of the subject site. If the proposed setbacks
, are less than Excelsior's zoning would allow, the variance should be
subject to approval by the Excelsior Planning Commission and Citv
Council.

Gilbert John Gilbertson
450 West Lake street
Excelsior, MN 55331
April 7, 1986
Dear Planning Commission Members,
We are applying for a side lot variance of 12.5 feet, and
a street setback variance of 26.5 feet in order to add a
utility room and garage to our home.
We feel that the variance should be granted for the following
reasons:
1) Our home is located very close to the lake,
consequently, the water table is very high.
We only have a basement under one-third of
our home, and part of that area is a dirt
floor which cannot be filled. The ceiling
height in our basement is approximately 6 feet.
We have been banging our heads and living
with the hardship of a flooded basement every
spring for the past 15 years. We intend to
live many more years in our home, and my wife
needs to get away from the hazards of a down-
stairs laundry, to say nothing of the problems
of water cleanup.
2) The wet basement makes it virtually impossible
to store anything of any value for long periods
of time. We are continually shifting equipment
and material around.
3) We need a garage to help combat the Minnesota
winters. We have been able to deal with it for
the past 15 years but I feel we would suffer
real hardships in our later years without one.
E..xhi bi t C-1
APPLICANT'S RE~UEST LE~~
.
.
City of Shorewood
April 7, 1986
Page 2
4) We live on an unlit, somewhat dead-end street. Our
cars sit out all year around, as do much of our
other household equipment. It has always been a
safety problem, especially since the addition of
the Shorewood Yacht Club has generated considerably
more thru traffic, on a street where there never
used to be any.
5) Due to our elevation, we have had serious problems
with water run-off from spring rains. The garage
would increase the elevation and help keep the water
in the street. The Village of Excelsior has built
a special berm at the end of our drive to help keep
the water out of our driveway. Several times in the
past we have had all the sand and gravel from the
street repair wash into our front yard.
6) We are located next door to the Minnetonka Portable
Dredging Company. While they are great neighbors,
they do generate a tremendous amount of dirt and dust
during the summer months. The garage would help
protect our cars and equipment from the dirt and dust
and help provide a barrier to the dredge yard.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
PLANNING COMMISSION, MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BRAD NIELSEN
DATE: 1 May 1986
RE: BRECKE, JERRY - SETBACK VARIANCE
FILE NO.: 405 (86.17)
BACKGROUND
Mr. Jerry Brecke has requested a setback variance to build an attached
garage on the west side of his home, which is located at 27450 Pine
Bend Road (see Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached). As shown on
Exhibit B he proposes to angle the new garage to parallel the street.
In this way, he intends to break up what would be a rather lengthy
building mass. The applicant proposes to build the garage apploxi-
mately 40 feet from the street r.o.w. rather than 50 feet - the re-
quired front yard setback in the R-1A zoning district.
In reviewing the applicant's building plans, (see Exhibit C, attached),
a new deck is shown at the rear of the house. As can be seen on Ex-
hibit B, the deck encroaches approximately 15 feet into the rear yard
setback. This also requires a variance.
*
ANftLYSIS/RECOMMENDATION
Aside frorr. the aesthetic co~~ideration, Mr. Brecke cites adjoining
houses with reduced setbacks as justification for the garage variance.
The house to the west of the applicart's is 31 feet from the Pine
Bend r.o.w., while the house to the north is 28 feet from the r.o.w..
Section 200.03 Subd. 3.d provides for such situations by allowing a
reduced setback where adjoining structures are closer to the street
than otherwise allowed. The average between the two adjoining struc-
tures1s 29.5 feet. Mr. Brecke's garage will be 40 feet from the
street - 10.5 feet further back than his neighbors.
The deck setback is somewhat harder to justify since there is room
along the easterly end of the house to build the deck. Having dis-
cussed this with the applicant, he asked for at least a five foot
variance to take advantage of the deck doors in the dinette area.

1986 STREET REPLACEMENT AND SEALCOATING
Staff met to review the notes taken on April 24 during the
tour of the C~ty to observe the condition of the streets.
Below, summarizes the meeting. Keep in mind that $250,000
has been budgeted.
Street Repiacement
Upon review of the notes which were taken during the tour,
several City streets were observed as in need of major re-
placement. Those streets are listed on the attached sheet
entitled "Streets Identified as in Greatest Need of Work."
Jim Norton will have estimated costs for replacement of each
identified street at the meeting of May 12. Staff recomme~ds
replacement work done in the amount of approximately $200,000.
Based upon the cost estimates provided on Monday night, Council
can choose which streets will get funds. Staff has prioritized
streets in the order that they appear on the attached sheet.
As a point of clarification, Vine Hill Road is ranked high
for two basic reasons. One, the street needs work. An over-
lay would save the street from major reconstruction in the
next few years. Staff feels it is prudent to save those
streets which are still in fairly good shape prior to complete
failure. Secondly, Minnetonka plans to place a 1i" overlay
on the section they have historically maintained from Hanus
Road South to the City Limits. This work is planned for the
1986 construction season. We feel it would be cost effective
to do a joint project on Vine Hill Road with the City of
Minnetonka. C
Sealcoating
Streets identified as in need of'sealcoatin~ are listed on the
second attachment. You will notice that the total length equals
approximately 10 miles. Staff recommends that the remaining
budgeted funds be used for sealcoating. Based upon the mate-
rials used and the costs incurred in 1985 for this type of work,
approximately 6 to 7 miles of street could be sealcoated in
1986. In 1985 the City sealed 6.4 miles of street at a cost

'."
Re: 1986 Street Replacement/Sealcoating
May 7, 1986
of $45,400. Should you choose to do so, staff will pick the
streets for sealcoating based on greatest need.
Storm Sewer
Per your direction in 1985, staff is doing work necessary to
complete storm sewer (ditch cleaning) work on Eureka Road.
We are now in the process of obtaining easements. If this
construction is done in 1986, costs will be approximately
$10,000. In the past, funds for storm sewer work came out of
the same department as street work. Based upon the estimates
presented by the City Engineer for street work, the costs for
the Eureka Road ditch cleaning project could come out qf the
Streets and Roadways Budget (Code 6363).
If you have any questions relative to any of the information
contained herein, let me know.

HOUSE PURCHASE - COUNTRY CLUB ROAD
Per your direction at the Council meeting of April 28, Attorney
Froberg and I have successfully negotiated the purchase of the
house next to City Hall. The purchase calls for $25,000 cash on
closing and assumption of the Contract for Deed (C.D.). The
C.D. has just under $99,000 remaining to be paid with a due in
full date of July 1, 1991. The C.D. carries a rate of 12%.
Monthly payments on the C.D. are $1055. The down payment and
C.D. result in a purchase price of $124,000. Closing is sched-
uled for June 2, 1986.
At this time a renter exists in the basement with a lease through
August. After August the use will cease. Rent will be paid to
the City in the amount of $455 per month or a total of $1365.
I calculate total 1986 costs to the City for this purchase of:
Cash Payment
6 Month's C.D. Payments
7 Month's Taxes
Closing Costs (est.)
Rental Income
$25,000
6,330
1,273 (exempt in 1987)
100
(1,365)
$31,338
I have heard some discussion of alternative ways of financing
this purchase. The Council needs to take formal action as to
payment source of the costs outlined above. If the costs will
be funded out of equipment purchases in the Public Works Depart-
ment, approximately $24,662 will remain. Staff will then discuss
what purchases can be made with the remaining funds.
Please contact me if you have any questions relative to this
issue.

METROPOLITAN DEVELOPMENT AND INVESTMENT FRAMEWORK
Since early 1985, the Metropolitan Council has been updating its
Metropolitan Development and Investment Framework (MDIF). The
~IDIF represents the Metropolitan Council's basic development and
investment philosophy, a discussion of geographic policy areas,
Council policy for these areas and their regional investment
priority. Following this, the MDIF deals with planning and in-
vestment procedures, including Council internal actions, the
Council and metropolitan systems and the Council and local units
of government. Finally, the document includes a work program
and a set of appendices covering local forecasts and urban ser-
vice area procedures.
The greatest amount of concern staff has had with this document
1
is in the forecasts. It has been staff's contention that the
forecasts for population and households are low. Planner Nielsen
and I have met with Metropolitan Council representatives to ap-
peal for an adjustment. Also, at 7:30 P.M. on November 18, 1985,
I appeared at a Public Hearing in Hopkins on behalf of Shorewood
to plead our case. To date, an upward adjustment has been made.
This adjustment, however, is still below our estimates.
Because the estimates will guide the Met Council in their deci-
sion-making process as to where growth and investments for in-
frastructure improvements should take place, a number of com-
munities in the southwest area of the region have begun to meet
to formulate a strategy to get the Met Council to adjust the MDIF
to look more favorably on the southwest area. Part of this strat-
egy includes the hiring of a consultant to present the case from
the southwest area from one unified front. Also, it is agre~d
that we.must plead our perspective to the Met Council memqe.rs
themselves rather than staff. It is found that staff is extremely
reluctant to change what they've proposed even if substantlation
is made t6 disp~te their recommendation. -

Re: MDIF
May 7, 1986
The governmental agencies that pave been attending the meetings
and are participating in this process are: Carver County, Scott
County, Shorewood, Minnetrista,:Eden Prairie, Prior Lake, Shakopee,
Chaska, Chanhassen, Victoria, and Waconia. The group wishes to
hire John Boland and Associates, governmental affairs consultants,
to aid us in getting changes to the MDIF. If the City wishes to
continue as part of this team, the group is looking for a cost
share from each City. The Shorewood share could be $500 to $1000.
By the meeting date on May 12, I hope to have the work program
for Mr. Boland so I will know just what services will be provided
for the funds spent. I would recommend the funds to be expended
from the budget for City Administrator (Code 5235). This is the
same coding used for Labor Relations Associates for union issues.
As you know, this code will get amended later this year.
If the Council chooses not to contribute financially, the south-
west group would still like your support in the effort. The
backing of the City would be helpful to the group in any form.
This item appears on your May 12 meeting agenda for your consid-
e~ation. Please contact me if you have any questions.

REQUEST TO REDUCE LETTER OF CREDIT
UNITED MORTGAGE CORP./COVINGTON VINE RIDGE
Per Paragraph 11 of the Development Agreement dated February 10,
1986, between the City of Shorewood and United Mortgage Corpora-
tion for a development called Covington Vine Ridge, the developer
has requested a reduction in the amount of the letter of credit
w~ currently hold for the improvements in the development. The
letter of credit is currently in the amount of $828,000. The
developer has submitted documentation requesting a reduction in
the amount of the letter of credit by $217,000 to a new amount
of $611,000. The City Attorney and City Engineer have reviewed
the documentation and find the request not acceptable in the
full amount of $217,000 but rather in the amount of $136,710.
This is due to the fact that additional compaction is necessary
prior to final approval.
Supporting documentation received by the City for this request
is included in your April 28, 1986, meeting packet.
Based upon the information received and reviewed by staff, and,
per paragraph 11 of the Development Agreement noted above, it
is the recommendation of staff to allow a reduction in the let-
ter of credit provided by United Mortgage Corporation in the
amount of $136,710 to a new amount of $691,290. If this is your
determination, I will then send a copy of the approving resolu-
tion to Midwest Federal for the reduction.
Please contact me if you have any questions relative to this
issue.
