PRELIMINARY PLAT - JOHNSON'S FIRST ADDITION RESOLUTION NO. 42-91 APPLICANT: LOCATION: Ron Johnson West Side of Vine Hill Road, between Shady Hills and Waterford RON LUND - 5465 WATERFORD CIRCLE Mr. Lund said he lives across the street from Outlot C. He feels it is part of Waterford and therefore, under Waterford's protective covenants. He said this issue was discussed two years ago and he thought the matter was decided. He said the Planning Commission voted in favor of establishing the Waterford covenants. Lund said Mr. Bonner, Johnson's attorney, has another compromise position. He said the neighbors did not participate in the discussions and he is angry about that. Lund said their property values are at stake. '? ..:.. . . . CITY OF SHOREWOOD ", REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MONDAY. APRIL 22. 1991 COUNCIL CHAMBERS 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD PAGE 3 MR. JERRY KENLINE - 5535 WATERFORD CIRCLE Kenline said the Planning Commission and Mr. Nielsen recommended Johnson abide by the Waterford Covenants, nothing should change at this point. He wanted the Council to understand that the covenants work for 89 other people in Waterford. Stover said no other compromise was agreed to by the Council, Planner Nielsen said the Staff had agreed to the compromise but it was not approved by the Council. Kenline said the neighbors should have been consulted. JOHN BONNER - ATTORNEY FOR MR. JOHNSON Bonner said there was a reason why the neighbors were not part of the compromise discussion. At the Planning Commission meeting he asked if the neighbors would take part in discussion to works out a compromise. He said Mr. Lund said it was not the neighbors problem. Bonner said he would like a discussion with the neighbors. Bonner said Mr. Johnson knows the lots are in a high quality development. However, Mr. Johnson feels Trivesco has a competitive interest with him and could delay the development. Bonner said at the Planning Commission meeting he proposed that an outside party such as the City or an architecture professor from the University review the plans. However, neither idea was acceptable to the Planning Commission or Staff. Bonner said he now proposes to have Trivesco and Johnson each choose an architect to review the plans. Stover asked who would pay the cost. Bonner said the builder would accept the cost. Stover asked Lund if this was acceptable. Lund said there is no need to compromise, the mechanics are already in place within the Waterford covenants. He said Johnson is trying to shift the burden to the neighbors. If the neighbors don't like what he does they have to take him to court. He said Johnson is taking advantage of values already established. Councilmember Lewis asked Bonner if there is a problem between Johnson and Trivesco beyond the competition. Bonner said there is hostility between them. He also said Johnson proposes to build very high quality housing. Councilmember Gagne said the value of the area has already been established and Johnson should live within the Waterford covenants. Bonner said Johnson does propose to live with the covenants except for the initial building review stage. Lewis said this is providing an additional out for Johnson and he thinks the residents have a just concern. Stover asked Nielsen if the City has the right to lmpose conditions on Johnson. -~ -..:1 . . . CITY OF SHOREWOOD , "REGULAR CITY COUNC I L MEET I NG MONDAY. APRIL 22. 1991 COUNCIL CHAMBERS 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD PAGE 4 City Attorney Froberg said all property within the original plat of Waterford is under the Waterford Covenants, including outlot C. These covenants established an Architectural Control Committee. This Committee is made up of the three partners in Trivesco, Inc. Froberg said these covenants do not apply to the property outside of the Waterford plat. Stover asked what covenants apply to the property when it 1S combined. Froberg said the part of the property that was within the Waterford plat when the covenants were filed, is still under those restrictions. He said the City can require a development agreement between the City and the developer that establishes restrictions. Froberg said the City can review and determine if the restrictions are similar to the Waterford covenants. The City can disapprove the covenants and restrictions if they are not in the best interests of the City. However, the City cannot require the developer of one tract of land to obtain the approval of a developer of another tract of land before development. Gagne said there are a lot of legalities but the bottom line is that Johnson'did not want to work with the City five years ago and now wants the fringe benefits. He said now the property is worth much more than five years ago. Stover moved. Gagne seconded. to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 42-91 "A Resolution approving the preliminary plat for Johnson1s First Addition. based on the recommendations of the City Planner dated March 28. 1991 and subject to the restrictive covenants remaining the same as Waterford. Motion carried - 5/0 7:15 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING - CONSIDER ORDERING OF IMPROVEMENTS/ORDER PREPARATION OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS - GLEN ROAD DRAINAGE PROJECT Brancel opened the Public Hearing at 7:47 P.M. City Engineer Dresel presented the project and gave an overview of prior proposals. The project was first proposed in 1988 because of flooding of homes in the area that, at times. flowed over Hwy.19. Three ponding areas were established by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District in 1988. The funding was never established and the project never completed. In May 1990 the City request that the MCWD amend their study to deal solely with the Shorewood portion of the project. In August of 1990 a Feasibility Study was done by OSM that included dredging ponds 2 and 3. At the time. the dredging would have including clearing trees and the residents did not want that. The easements would have been extensive. On Nov. 13, 1990 the City asked the MCWD to do another model and a Taxing District was established. On Dec. 28. 1990 OSM was aSked to go ahead with plans and specs. but the project has been in limbo. In March 1991 the Feasibility Report was updated and the project was scaled down from $150.000 to $107.000. 4 . . . CITY OF SHOREWOOD :'REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MONDAY. APRIL 22. 1991 COUNCIL CHAMBERS 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD PAGE 5 Dresel said he is now asking for direction and input from the neighborhood. Finance Director Rolek said the City looked at two funding options; special assessment and special taxing district. Rolek said it is hard to prove benefit with drainage projects and use the special assessment. Therefore, a special taxing district was established. He said the project will cost $307,000 with easements. BRANCEL OPENED THE HEARING TO THE PUBLIC AT 7:54 P.M. BERNIE EISENREICH - WESTWIND ADDITION Eisenreich said part of his property is in the Special Taxing District but he could see know problem on Smithtown Road. Nielsen said the north side of Smithtown Road is in the drainage district. Eisenreich said he doesn't think the project is needed. ROGER CHAMPA - STAR LANE He thought the City waited with this project until there were more homes to pay for the project. Brancel said the project was delayed because it was given to the MCWD. Champa asked if the Council had approved the Christopher Lane development and determined that the drainage would not affect the Glen Road area. Brancel said the Council reqUired the developer to set aside land for a ponding area. However. the pond has not been used yet but can be used if the Glen Road project is not completed. Champa asked how long this problem has been going on. Gagne said there has been a problem at least since 1961, when he moved in. He said know one wants to address the problem until they are under water. DAVID LITTLEFIELD - 24775 GLEN ROAD Littlefield explained the problem and how the water sits in the area. He said the current Livingston property is sometimes underwater. BRIAN MAHAN - 5670 CHRISTOPHER ROAD Mahan asked Rolek to explain the tax capacity. Rolek said the tax values are established by the State at 1% of the first $68,000, 2% up to $110,000 and 3% over $110,000. Mahan said he and his wife are not in support of the project. He asked if the City will take action against Tonka Bay because the Tonka Bay Mall drains water into the area. Nielsen said that problem has been discussed preViously. A drainage pattern was established in that area. 1:::- d . . . CITY OF SHOREWOOD :'REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MONDAY, APRIL 22, 1991 COUNCIL CHAMBERS 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD PAGE 6 Gagne said that when other Cities and agencies were involved. they used the MCWD as a third party but it didn't work. Stover and Gagne said Tonka Bay maintains that water from Shorewood also runs into Tonka Bay. Mahan asked why the ICO is excluded from the project. Dresel and Public Works Director Zdrazil said there is a catch basin to take care of the runoff. Mahan reiterated that Christopher Road was approved without concern for the runoff. He said the Council should consider the financial aspects of litigation by the residents over this project. PETER CICCIO - 5655 CHRISTOPHER LANE Ciccio said he is against the project. He as of the time of the assessment hearing. undue financial burden on him and he would an easement. Dresel said the figures are not final. asked if the value is fixed He said this would place an lose 65 Ft. of his lot for ALLAN VAN DER LINDE Van der Linde said he purchased his property 3 years ago. He said the problem should be solved by Hennepin County. The burden is placed on the Cities to solve drainage problems. He said there is no reason for him to finish his house, if vacant lots are taxed less. He said the City is paying too much to buy the land to drain the low lying area. He said there should be a different way to do this. ROGER FISCHBACH - 24885 GLEN ROAD Fischbach asked what the City is paying for easements. Dresel said they figured $.25 to $1.00 per Sq. ft., approximately. Fischbach asked if trees would be removed. Dresel said they are trying to minimize the removal of trees. Fischbach asked what guarantees he had that the problem would be solved. He said his house is built on a drainage area. Dresel said the project would not alleviate ground water drainage. That would require installing a sump pump. Fischbach said he would rather do that. Dresel said the legislature has adopted rules for storm sewer drainage projects. All residents who contribute to the problem are taxed. WOODY LOVE - MINNEHAHA CREEK WATERSHED DISTRICT REPRESENTATIVE Love explained that water quality in the area is still an issue. He said a long term approach is necessary and a more natural method of solving the problem. He offered the staff of the MCWD to help with the project. 6 . . . CITY OF SHOREWOOD "REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MONDAY. APRIL 22. 1991 COUNCIL CHAMBERS 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD PAGE 7 JOHN PLONSKE - 24680 SMITHTOWN ROAD Plonske said the numbers can get worse. The residents do not know enough about the project. He said he moved to the area for the nature. He asked who will gain from this project. He can see no benefit. DEBRA ROSS-FARRELL - GLEN ROAD Ross-Farrell said a holding pond was established to take the drainage off the Towne Addition but not the whole area. She said she will lose 1/2 acre of land for easements. Ross-Farrell said she has 30 dead trees in her yard from the 1987 storm and she is trying to keep this from happening again. PUBLIC HEARING CLOSED AT 8:48 P.M. Brancel said she the cost of the project is high. Stover said if easements are volunteered, the cost would be 1/3 less. Gagne said he does not want to spend $307,000 and the City cannot continue to run water off into the lake. He would like to find another way. Councilmember Daugherty said that water problems don't disappear. He said the residents should discuss the project. Lewis said the easements add to the cost. He said the State mandates the tax figures. He said the group called Fair Share is trying to change the tax structure. Froberg said the Council can table the project for up to 6 months. The project was not petitioned by 35% or more residents. Approval will require 4/5 vote of the Council. Stover moved. Gagne seconded. to table the Glen Road Drainage project for 6 months and encourage the residents involved to discuss the problem. Motion carried - 5/0. Lewis said the MCWD offered help, Gagne asked if the neighbors are interested in discussing the project. Brian Mahan, Peter Ciccio and David Littlefield said they would try to organize a meeting, BREAK - 9:05 - 9:10 7 .' . . . CITY OF SHOREWOOD .' . REGULAR CITY COUNC I L MEET I NG MONDAY.

JERRY BRECKE - 27450 PINE BEND Brecke said he is in favor of the project and thinks this is a favorable time to do it. MARK AND JUDY GRAHAM The Grahams said they will go along with the neighbors. PHIL BORTSCHELLER - 27410 PINE BEND Bortscheller said he just installed a new well but is not opposed to the project. He asked why there had to be an 8" pipe through Pine Bend. Dressel said there will eventually be a hook UP at Island View. Nielsen said the Ordinance requires a project to pay to run the pipe to the next extension. Bortscheller asked what the contingencies covered. Dresel said they started planning the project with no information and the contingency cost covers the extra costs. SUSAN SANTO - 5685 HOWARD'S POINT ROAD Santo said she signed the petition but does not want to hook-up. She has a water hook-up at her front yard from the Brentridge development. She said the Council needs to look at a water policy. The piecemeal approach to the problem will not continue to work. MICHAEL LOFTEN - 5665 HOWARDS POINT ROAD He said his property borders Brentridge but there is no hook-up. It would be cheaper for him to hook-up to Brentridge. He said Howards Point is not included in the project but is to be assessed. Dresel said that will be adjusted, he will not be assessed twice. Loften said he is paying twice to refinish the road. BILL KEELER - 27420 PINE BEND Keeler said he preferred option B and thought it would be cheaper with an 8" pipe. JOHN DURAN - Duran said he was asked to speak to the Council by a some homeowners.
