Councilmember Stover said no Planning Commission meeting had been

B. Park Commission
Park Liaison Watten reported to the Park Commission the decisions of
the City Council regarding the Parks.
He also said that he had received samples of flooring for the Park
warming houses. The Toughtex product must be glued to the floor and
would cost $3200.87. The second type of flooring is from the Pawlings
Corp. and is an interlocking, reversible flooring that does not need
glue. This product would cost $4500. Watten recommend this product
because of its flexibility. The Council would not have to order the
first quality tile; the second quality would be just as good and would
only have a slightly different color.
Gagne said the Park Commission preferred the interlocking material.
Watten moved, Gagne seconded, to purchase the flexible tile flooring
from the Pawlings Corporation at a cost not to exceed $5000.
Motion carried - 5/0.
Watten said the Park Commission accepted the offer of the Shorewood

REVIEW ALTERNATIVES AND COSTS FOR LIFT STATION REPAIRS AND AUTHORIZE
THE CITY ENGINEER TO PREPARE PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS.
City Engineer Norton presented his cost estimate for the
rehabilitation of lift stations 5 & 6.
Norton told the Council these two stations have been identified by
Munitech as needing the most immediate repair. They are wet well/dry
well types, manufactured by Cant ex and installed in 1972. It will be
necessary to completely replace these stations.
Norton said there are two alternatives:
1. Replace the existing equipment with the same equipment.
2. Convert the stations to submersible types.
Norton recommends the City convert the stations to submersible
stations. The cost is higher but there are two reasons for
considering the conversion.
1. Only one man will be needed to maintain the station.
2. They are safer because they can be operated from above
ground.
Stover asked why there was a difference in price between Station 5 and
6.
Norton said Station 5 was originally designed to include flow from
Enchanted Island, therefore, the pipe is 121-vs-9" for the rest of the
City. However, the MWCC decided there should be no line under Lake
Minnetonka and Enchanted Island has neve~ been connected to this pipe.
Gagne moved. Watten seconded, to authorize the City Engineer to
prepare plans and specifications for replacing Lift Stations 5 & 6
with submersible stations.
Motion carried - 5/0
Gagne, Haugen and Stover said the City has been budgeting for this
replacement in the Sewer Fund.

City Attorney Froberg said the Council held a hearing on the Ordinance
establishing the Shady Hills Storm Sewer District on October 8, 1990
and tabled the matter. On October 30, 1990, the Council ordered a
Public Hearing on the Feasibility of the Shady Hills Drainage project
to be held on Nov. 26, 1990.
Froberg said the Ordinance before them sets up the boundaries of the
Taxing District.
Brancel asked if the Taxing Districts have to be used once they are
established.
Froberg said they do not have to be used. This Ordinance merely sets
up the boundaries of the district. Additional action is necessary by
the Council before additional taxes can be levied within the district.
Gagne moved, Brancel seconded to adopt ORDINANCE NO. 235 "An Ordinance
Establishing Storm Sewer Improvement Tax District No.2, Shady Hills
Subwatershed," and waive the second reading.
Motion carried - 5/0 on a roll call vote.

TO THE ESTABLISHMENT OF STORM SEWER
IMPROVEMENT TAX DISTRICT NO. 1 - GLEN ROAD
ORDINANCE NO. 236
RESOLUTION NO. 125A-90
SUBWATERSHED
Engineer Norton said he and Mayor Haugen had discussed the Glen Road
Project with the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and they seemed
receptive to the City's revised Feasibility Report.
However, Jim Mahady of the Watershed District had contacted Norton and
said he would be presenting the City's proposals to the District Board
on Nov. 15th. Norton said the City will receive an order to proceed 30
days after the approval by the District Board. The Watershed District
will also be charging $1500 for their services.
Haugen said she had received no information from the Watershed
District concerning this matter.
Gagne asked if Norton had told the Watershed District they are driving
Cities away from them with their delays.
Haugen and Stover said the City should proceed without their approval.
Norton said the City needs the Watershed District's approval.
Stover asked about the payment of $1500.
Norton said the money was for the computer analysis of the City's
Feasibility Study.
Gagne said the City originally asked the Watershed District for
assistance because their computer had the necessary figures for the
Feasibility Study. This payment will update the study.
Gagne moved, Watten seconded, to authorize payment of $1500.00 to the
Minnehaha Creek Watershed District for the update of the Glen Road
Feasibility Study.
Motion carried - 5/0
Councilmember Watten asked Norton the depth of ponds in the project.
Norton said pond * 2 will be 4 ft. and pond * 3, 4 to 5 ft.

.
Watten asked if there would be a danger to the public, considering
these ponds are not fenced.
Norton said the ponds will have a 4 to 1 slope and should be no more
dangerous than a natural pond.
Froberg said the legal description of the District is not attached.
However, it is within the area identified in Exhibit A as enclosed in
the information for the Public Hearing. The proposed boundaries of
the District were identified at that time but not all the properties
in that area will be included in the tax district.
Stover moved, Gagne seconded, to adopt ORDINANCE NO. 236 "An Ordinance
Establishing Storm Sewer Improvement Tax District No.1, Glen Road and
County Road 19 Subwatershed, If and waive the 2nd reading,
Motion carried - 5/0 on a roll call vote.
Brancel moved, Gagne seconded, to adopt RESOLUTION NO, 125A-90 II A

RESOLUTION CALLING A PUBLIC HEARING ON A RESOLUTION NO. 126-90
PROPOSED ORDINANCE RELATING TO THE ESTABLISHMENT
OF STORM SEWER IMPROVEMENT TAX DISTRICT NO, 3 -
GRANT LORENZ SUBWATERSHED - FOR MARCH 11, 1991 AT
AT 8:00 P,M,
Froberg said the Council should discuss the legal boundaries of the
District.
Norton said the project has grown considerably from the original
concern. The taxing district map includes the areas that contribute
to the problem.
Watten asked Norton about the contribution of surface water vs ground
water to the problem. He said a storm sewer must be considered or
ground water will add to the problem.
Stover asked if the preliminary map would be updated before the
hearing.
Haugen asked if there are developments that have completed their own
water systems. She said they should not be taxed for another drainage
project.
.
Norton said Strawberry Fields does have ponding areas on the
development but the overflow does go into Grant Lorenz. He said the
City needs to formulate a policy regarding credits to developments
that already have drainage systems.
Gagne said the developments in this district should be responsible for
part of this project because some of their water still drains into the
Grant Lorenz area.

Stover said the developments have not made the drainage problem worse.
The residents of the area can let the City know if they want this
project.
Gagne said there are people who have a problem and need to have it
corrected. The Council needs to make a decision.
Brancel wanted to know if the entire City map should be divided into
Special Taxing Districts, instead of doing it piecemeal.
Norton said there had been discussion at the Staff meeting to look
upstream from Noble Road and the pipes that run under Edgewood Road to
a lagoon and Lake Minnetonka. The Staff decided to use the areas that
contribute to the Grant Lorenz problem.
Stover wanted the reasoning to be consistent and fair for all
residents.
Brancel asked if there was enough area North of Edgewood Rd. to create
a separate Taxing District. Norton said there is a sizable area.
Watten moved, Gagne seconded, to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 126-90 "A
Resolution calling for a Public Hearing on the Proposed Ordinance
Relating to the Establishment of Storm Sewer Improvement Tax District
No.3 Grant Lorenz Subwatershed, on March ii, 1991.11
Motion carried - 5/0 on a roll call vote.
REVIEW PROPOSED CONTRACT FOR PREPARATION OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS
FOR WATER TREATMENT PLANT
Froberg said there have been changes to the proposed contract with
Associated Consultants Engineers.
He said progress payments have been added and are outlined in the new
contract.
If the project is abandoned by the City, the Engineer is paid
proportionally to the work performed.
The Engineer's errors and omissions insurance has been reduced from $1
Mill. to $250,000.
If the Engineer abandons the project, all fees paid by the City to the
Engineer will be refunded to the City.
Gagne said he does not want this contract to be any different than
other City contracts.
Froberg said the City normally has the Engineer prepare the assessment
roll but Associated Engineers does not normally provide this service.
Noel Vogen - He said he can provide this service but could not
accurately determine his fee for this service and it is not included
in the fixed fee stated in the proposed contract.
Gagne said it has not be determined how this project will be funded.
It could be funded with TIF money, in which case there will be no need
.

for assessment roll. Gagne also asked if Associated Consultant's
references had been checked.
Haugen said the City Administrator will inform him.
Haugen asked Froberg if the contract had been shown to Associated
Consultants prior to his estimate of a $40,000 fixed fee. Froberg and
Vogen said no it had not.
Froberg said the provision requiring the Engineer to prepare the
assessment roll was left in the contract and the Council can make
their decision.
Haugen asked the ~ill of the Council.
Gagne said he is uneasy and has questions he wants to ask Whittaker.
Watten asked if he wanted to check the Engineer's qualifications?
Gagne said he wanted to inquire about the firm's prior projects.
Watten thought the firm was already hired and the qualifications
should have been checked a long time ago.
Froberg said the plans and spec. were ordered subject to approval of
an agreement with the Engineer.
City Administrator Whittaker said he has seen reports on the quality
of the treatment of one of the plants they designed. However, there
have been no calls from other references.
Mrs. Vogel - asked how the TIF money will be spent.
Haugen said the money can be spent on public improvements within the
district.
Mrs. Vogel wanted to know if it was a public improvement to treat the
water when the water is already healthy drinking water.
Haugen said the water is not clear.
Watten said the Council has decided to treat the water.
Froberg said water treatment is part of public improvements that may
be partially financed with TIF money.
Haugen said the money is not yet available. If an assessment is
necessary, only the benefitted properties will be taxed.
Stover asked Froberg why there is a reduction in the errors and
omissions part of the contract from $1 Mill. to $250,000.
Froberg said Associated Consultants does not have that much insurance.
Haugen said $1 Mill. has always been in the City's contracts and she
doesn't want to deviate.
Gagne is bothered by this project and would rather wait. He wants to
know what is happening with the Waterford Third Phase.
Whittaker said he met with Sherman-Boosalis and they will close on the
purchase of the property from Trivesco on Nov. 30, 1990. Trivesco will
provide the letter of credit for the TIF bonds.
The City is expending no money on the preparation of plans and specs.
for the public improvements because they have not received a deposit
or letter of credit from Sherman-Boosalis. He expects to have all
signed agreements and money by Dec. 1, 1990.

Gagne moved. Brancel seconded. to table the authorization for plans
and specifications for the S. E. Area Water Treatment Facility until
the Dec. 10. 1990 City Council meeting.
Motion carried - 4/1 (Watten)
Whittaker asked if the Council had addressed all their questions
concerning the contract.
Gagne wants Associated Consultant's references checked.
Brancel and Haugen want the $1 Mill. errors and omissions lnsurance
left in the contract.
Froberg said the City has $600,000 tort liability limit insurance by
Statute.
Gagne said it would set a precedent.
Vogen said he cannot afford a $1 Mill. lnsurance policy on a $40,000
fee.
Froberg said the $1 Mill. errors and omissions figure was taken from
the insurance provision in the current contract with the City
Engineer.
Whittaker said TIF will support only about one-half of the cost of the
project.
Whittaker said a policy on insurance has never been discussed.
Haugen said $1 Mill. is on all contracts.
Gagne asked Whittaker to review the other City contracts to see if $1
Mill. insurance is used.
.
Stover asked who on the City staff would be assisting the Engineer
with the assessment roll?
Whittaker said the City Clerk or Finance Director would help.
On a per user basis, it would not be hard to calculate the assessment
roll.
Vogen said it would be hard to figure the cost of the service before a
method of payment is determined.
Haugen said Vogen can give the City his hourly rate.
Stover said there lS a difference in the "benchmarks" provision ln the
contract.
Vogen said it is the firm's policy to provide "benchmarks" to the
contractors and they follow them rather than the Engineer laying-out
the building.
Watten asked about the retainage upon completion of the project.
Froberg said ln this contract there is a schedule of payments. The
last payment is not dispensed until all the work is completed to the
satisfaction of the City.
Watten said the City was in hurry to hire this firm and now it is
checking references. He said this should have been done first.
.
Vogel asked how long it would take to corrode the pipes with the
amount of iron in the water.
Vogen said there is sediment in the water but this is not corroding
the pipes.

.
Vogel asked why the City is doing this at the plant at a cost of
$300,000? Why didn't the City know about the iron content in this
well? Gagne said the Council agreed to treat this water problem.
The City was told the water was healthy but the residents are saying
it is not of decent quality.
MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
Mayor Haugen asked three times for matters from the floor.
There were none.
STAFF REPORTS:
A. CITY ENGINEER
1. Alternatives for T.H. 7 and Christmas Lake Road Intersection
.
Norton reported that Mn/Dot has sent five new plans to the City
for approval. All the proposals move Christmas Lake Road West.
Alternatives 1-3 move Highway 7 South. Alternatives 4 & 5 move
HwY. 7 North. The proposals that move HwY. 7 South will impact
Radisson Road; many buildings will have to be taken down.
Whittaker asked how these plans differ from the City's plan.
Norton said the intersection has been moved West.
Gagne said Greenwood doesn't want the boatworks or the Food N
Fuel to be taken. He asked if the State has taken Greenwood's
position into consideration. He also said the Council needs to
decide what is best for Shorewood.
Norton said the best solution for Shorewood would be to have the
road moved North. He said * 4 would be the best proposal but the
City should wait until the public hearing on Nov. 14, 1990.
Stover asked if Shorewood can veto the proposals.
Haugen said Mn/Dot cannot proceed without the approval of
Greenwood and Shorewood.
Whittaker said he thought they could proceed without the Cities'
approval.
Norton said Mn/Dot has told him they can but will not proceed
without the approval of the two cities.

Attorney Froberg reported that Naegele had taken down the sign
at Rapid Oil Change.
2. Amendments to LMCD Enabling Act
.

Enabling Act of 1967.
This does not change any major provisions of the Enabling Act, it
simply puts it into codified form in State Statute.

Excess Liability Options
Froberg said the City must consider whether or not to waive the
Statutory liability limit for purposes of it's umbrella coverage
for excess liability of $1 Million.
The State liability limit of $600,000 does not apply to Federal
cases. Also, inverse condemnation cases cannot be limited to the
$600,000 limit. Therefore, the City needs the umbrella policy.
The umbrella coverage can be limited only to those cases in which
our statutory liability does not apply. The City can save on the
premium by not waiving our statutory liability limit of $600,000.
Froberg advised not to waive the statutory limit but keep the
umbrella for exclusions.
Stover moved, Watten seconded to accept the excess liability coverage
of $1 Million from the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust and
the City DOES NOT WAIVE the monetary limits on tort liability
established by Minnesota Statutes 466.04.
Motion carried - 5/0
C. CITY ADMINISTRATOR
1.
Offer from Snowmobile Club to Clean Up Trail
Whittaker said he has talked with Mr. Arndt concerning his
complaints about the Snowmobile Club. He said the City should
accept the club's help if it does not require supervision.
Watten said the Park Commission recommended the City accept the
offer.
Haugen said the City had received two letters from residents
stating that the Snowmobile Club does not clean-up the trail.
Stover said a previous snowmobile club had offered to clean-up
the trail and had cut branches along the trail. She does not
object to this club cleaning litter but does not want them to
do any tree trimming.
Mike Ellis - President, Shorewood Snowmobile Club
He said the club is newly reformed. Their intention is to
clean-up the litter along the trail a couple of times during
the year. Their purpose is similar to the Adopt-a-Highway
program and they would like a sign at each end of the trail
recognizing their help.
Haugen said there are too many signs already,
Brancel and Gagne did not object to the signs.
Watten moved, Gagne seconded to accept the offer of the Shorewood
Snowmobile Club to clean-up the Shorewood Hiking and Biking Trail.
Motion carried - 5/0.

2. LMC Office Space
Whittaker said the League of Minnesota Cities is requesting more
office space. He said the City has just finished paying
additional dues each year to payoff the bonds on the current
building. Whittaker said the League should consider adding
on to the building, However, he would like the Council's input
on the subject.
Haugen said she has been to many meetings at the current building
and the League is cramped for space because they have had to
add additional staff, She said she would concur with adding
on to the current space.
Stover moved, Brancel seconded to recommend the League of Minnesota
Cities add on to their current office building.
Motion carried - 5/0.
Haugen suggested the new City Council have a representative to the
LMC. The Council needs to be aware of bills at the State Legislature
that affect the City. She said she would be glad to help.
3. Podium Chairs
The discussion was delayed until January.
4. Proposals for 1991 Recycling Contract
Whittaker said the proposals have been received and the savlngS
will amount to $.25 per household. He said the contract was
worth doing jointly. The final proposal will be ready on Nov.
26th.
5. Metro Waste Control
Whittaker said a proposal was received from Gene Franchette to
become a watch dog at the MWCC.
Gagne said the City is paying a lot for waste control and it
might be worth trying this proposal.
The Council felt the proposal was worth trying for one year, if
the fee were reasonable.

Commission at their Nov. 27th meeting.
2. Property Stakes
Haugen said a resident of Shorewood Oaks had complained that a
property stake had been taken while the area for the Little
League Field was being graded. She asked Norton who was
responsible for this.
Norton said the contractor is responsible for returning the stake
but it should really be installed by a surveyor.
Whittaker said he would look into the problem. He thinks the
City installed the stake when they installed the berm.
