APPROVAL OF MINUTES
A. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes, June 27, 2005
Callies moved, Wellens seconded, Approving the City Council Regular Meeting Minutes of June
27, 2005, as amended on Item 9A, Page 4, omit Paragraph 4 and insert following Paragraph 3,
"Councilmember Wellens stated he was opposed to increasing Shorewood's contribution to
SLMPD operations from 46.0% to 49.0%, because he had not seen any evidence presented that
demonstrated great financial difficulties for the City of Excelsior. Further he stated, it seemed as
though City of Excelsior representatives had not asked for temporary assistance, rather, they had
accused the City of Shorewood of unfairness and then demanded relief. He stated he was very
concerned about this attitude. Councilmember Wellens also stated this attitude had implied prior
Shorewood Councilmembers had in some way cheated the City of Excelsior by accepting the
current Joint Powers Agreement and that had never been the case. Furthermore, he did not
believe previous Councilmembers of Excelsior had been fools to accept previous agreements as had
been insinuated with regard to those Excelsior Councilmembers that had accepted the current
agreement. Overall, he stated, neither accusation was accurate.
Councilmember Wellens also stated he believed there was an anti-business attitude in Excelsior as
demonstrated by the following examples:
. Ryan Construction was blocked from occupying their building.
. Bill Stoddard withdrew his proposal for a 10-unit row house.
. The Nanny and Tutoring business was blocked.
. Simply Nuts was blocked from installing a garage door.
. Excelsior's advertising campaign un-invited Wal-Mart and Starbucks.
. Terry Forbord wanted to put a $4.5 million building but was blocked.

. Most recently, in the Star Tribune. Bill Mason publicly referred to the Heritage Board as .
the Hysterical Board.
.I
Councilmember Wellens stated there seemed to be a long history of depressing property values
within the City of Excelsior, which was the basis of its tax revenue, and he was quite concerned
because the complaint from the City of Excelsior was that there was not any revenue. These two
issues work together, and he stated he did not believe it was financial prudent for the City of
Excelsior to prohibit so many projects that could generate revenue, and then turn to the other
member Cities to ask for financial help. He went on to state he did not believe this financial
problem should be spread to Shorewood's residents, and he did not believe the other member cities
should be the first resort to fixing the City of Excelsior's fmancial problems but it seemed to be
what was happening in this matter. He stated he believed the City of Excelsior was just beginning
to feel the consequences of their policies and there was not any reason Shorewood's Council should
seek to spread the financial burden to its residents."
Motion passed 3/0.

8. PLANNING
Commissioner Woodruff reported on matters considered and actions taken at the July 5, 2005, Planning
Commission Meeting (as detailed in the minutes of that meeting).
Acting Mayor Lizee stated she appreciated the efforts made by the Planning Commission in the Lake
Virginia Woods case to reopen the Public Hearing and answer all questions by the Public as part of the
planning process for that case.
9. GENERAL/NEW BUSINESS
A. SLMPD Issues Group Recommendation
Administrator Dawson stated Councilmember Wellens had requested this item be placed on the Agenda
for this meeting for additional consideration, noting the chronological process of actions taken since the
completion of the South Lake Minnetonka Police Department Issues Group meeting on May 26, 2005.
Councilmember Wellens stated he wished to propose a resolution clarifying the decision made by the
Shorewood City Council in recent weeks related to the tentative agreements package offered to the other
member cities.
Wellens moved Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 05-063, "A Resolution Affirming the Decision of the
City Council Regarding the Approval of the Recommendation by the SLMPD Issues Group."
Motion failed for lack of a second.
Councilmember Callies stated she believed the minutes from the June 27, 2005, Regular Council Meeting
to be quite clear on Shorewood's position on this matter. She stated the recommendation by the Council
at that time was clear in its intent to deal with this issue one time only. Since that action had taken place,
she stated, she would like to see the process move forward.
10. ENGINEERING/PUBLIC WORKS
A. Accept Feasibility Report and Authorize Preparation of Plans, Specifications, and
Engineering Estimate, and Request for Proposals
Engineer Brown explained the City of Shorewood was being asked to consider a request for relocation of
one of its three dry hydrant systems located on Enchanted Island and Shady Island. He stated these
systems were constructed in 1994 as support for the fire department should a fire occur in that area. He
further explained the hydrant in this case was initially constructed on the northeast portion of Enchanted
Island, at 4550 Enchanted Point. The hydrant was initially installed adjacent to the shoreline of Lake
Minnetonka on property previously owned by Gerald and Gretchen Grewe. The City of Shorewood had
acquired a permanent easement from the Grewe's for access to the hydrant. Since that time, the property
had changed ownership, and the new owner, Michael Catain, petitioned to move the hydrant from his
property as he was planning to build a security system, with fencing, on his property. This new system
would prohibit access to the dry hydrant, and had thus, necessitated this request.
CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
JULY 11, 2005
Page 4 of5
Engineer Brown went on to explain that the City's Engineering Consultants, WSB & Associates, had .
been directed to prepare a feasibility report on this project. The report submitted concluded that the
extension of a line to meet the needs of the property owner would have little effect on the available fire
flow from the hydrant, and would also allow better coverage for other homeowners in the area. For these
reasons, Staff recommended accepting this report and adopting the resolution that would allow WSB &
AssQciates to move forward with plans, specifications, and quotes for the project.
Engineer Brown then outlined the process for financial responsibility and noted Staff would need to work
with Mound Fire District Chief Pederson on this matter, should it be approved this evening.
Michael Catain, 4550 Enchanted Point, stated he would appreciate being allowed to move forward with
this request. He noted a boater had recently snagged the pump in the lake associated with this hydrant so
further investigative efforts would need to be made to determine the pump's current functionality. He
also stated it would be beneficial to have the hydrant's flow reach additional homes in the area as a result
of the relocation of this hydrant.
In response to questions by Councilmember Callies and Acting Mayor Lizee, Engineer Brown stated an
easement had been permanently acquired by the City and was still in effect. Director Nielsen stated other
property owners in that area had all donated the necessary easements for the dry hydrant system and had
been assessed as part of the planning process for such matters.
.
Wellens moved, Callies seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 05-063, "A Resolution Accepting
the Feasibility Report and Ordering Preparation of Plans, Specifications, and Estimate for
Relocation of Dry Hydrant System for 4550 Enchanted Point." Motion passed 3/0.
.
11. STAFF AND COUNCIL REPORTS
A. Administrator & Staff
1. County Road 19 Intersection
Engineer Brown reported curb and gutters had been placed along certain portions of roadways associated
with the County Road 19 Intersection project in recent weeks. He noted efforts were underway to "dress
up" the area for the Excelsior Firefighters Relief Association Dance to be held on July 15,2005. He also
stated a report on costs of burying utilities should be presented at the next Regular City Council Meeting.
.
B. Mayor & City Council
Administrator Dawson reviewed several upcoming meetings for Council.
Acting Mayor Lizee stated she wished to thank the many volunteers that assisted with the Fourth of July
Celebration in Excelsior this past week. She noted volunteers had come from as far away as St. Louis,
Missouri, to assist with the event, and the weather had cooperated as well to provide spectacular displays.
She also complimented Mayor Love for his efforts in providing patrol boats around the fireworks display
that evening. In addition, she thanked Engineer Brown and the City's Public Works Department.

Proposed Education Reimbursement Policy
The Benefits Committee has reviewed the City's existing tuition reimbursement policy in light of
discussion on the City Council that there should be some provision for repayment to the City if the
benefiting employee were to leave after taking courses and/or earning a degree or accreditation. The
major points of agreement were:
. There needs to be a distinction that reimbursement is for elective educational coursework--not
training or coursework that is required for one's position, or short-duration workshops or seminars
as they are training or professional development.
. Employees should be reimbursed for education related to any position or function in the City
organization, not just directly to one's position, as it would be helpful for employees to have
qualifications for other positions in the City.
. Courses required for degrees or accreditations that are not directly related to City functions should
be eligible for reimbursement. The City often prefers, rather than requires, post-secondary
degrees, and should be willing to reimburse employees to achieve those levels of education.
. There are many systems in place among cities regarding repayment oftuition reimbursement if an
employee leaves the organization, ranging from nothing to several years, and from 100 percent to
a sliding scale since the last course taken. The Committee believed there should be an ease of
understanding and an ease of administration, and that a one-year look-back with 100 percent
repayment would be fair to the employees and the City. This would apply to employees who
voluntarily terminated their employment with the City.
. There should be reasonable and fair limits set on what the City should reimburse. Tuition fees
vary widely depending on the institution one attends. Costs for courses at the University of
Minnesota should be the benchmark (currently approximately $250 per semester credit). It is also
reasonable to assume that one would take one course per term (3 to 5 credits) while carrying a full
workload. Consequently, the maximum reimbursement for tuition, books, and course-related fees
should be $3,000 per year.
. The reimbursement program should be available.to all regular city employees. Regular full-time
employees, (per federal defmition, those who average a minimum of 32 hours per week are
eligible for full benefits) would be eligible for the maximum reimbursement of$3,000 per year.
Regular part-time employees would be eligible for pro-rated maximum reimbursement, based on
the average number of hours they work per week.
The Benefits Committee has endorsed the proposed policy that follows. The Council reviewed it at the
July 18 work session and indicated approval. Council should formally adopt the proposed policy.

Proposed Education Reimbursement Policy

Page Two
Current Education Reimbursement Policy:
"It is the policy of the City to encourage all forms of in-service training in order to improve the
qualifications of employees in their positions and to prepare them for advancement in the City Service. In
order to effectuate this policy, the City will reimburse any regular full-time employee the tuition cost for
successfully completed approved class in any accredited college, vocational school, or correspondence
school curriculum. Prior written approval of the course must be given by the City Administrator.
Successful completion means that the employee receives a satisfactory grade or certificate of competency
from the Course Administrator. Special fees, activity fees, book fees, or the cost of supplies will not be
reimbursed by the City. No more than five credit hours will be approved during any quarter or semester.
Employees are required to take the courses outside oftheir normal work schedules. This policy is subject
to the availability of funds."
Pro Dosed Policy:
The City of Shorewood encourages all forms of education and training that improves the
qualifications of employees in their current positions and may prepare them to take other positions
within the City organization. The City encourages its employees to enroll in job- and City~related
educational courses and may provide rmancial assistance by reimbursement.
Upon successful completion of an approved class in any accredited college, vocational school, or
correspondence school, the City will reimburse any regular full-time employee the costs of tuition,
books, and course-related fees. Courses that are not directly City-related, but are required to earn
a degree or accreditation preferred by the City, are eligible for reimbursement. Successful
completion means that the employee receives a satisfactory grade ("C" or better, or "pass" on a
pass/fail basis) and provides documentation of same by the educational institution. Prior written
approval of the course must be given by the City Administrator for any reimbursement.
Employees are required to take the courses outside of their normal work schedules. If time off to
attend classes during regular working hours is approved by a department director, such time must
be fully made up at another time approved by the director.
The maximum annual reimbursement is $3,000 per regular full-time employee (minimum average
of 32 work-hours per week), on pro-rated subject to the availability of City funds. Regular part-
time employees are eligible for a pro-rated maximum reimbursement, based on the average number
of hours worked per week, subject to the availability of City funds.
When an employee voluntarily terminates employment with the City, he/she will be required to
repay all of his/her education reimbursement from the City for one full calendar year prior to the
effective date of resignation.
This policy applies to those elective educational coursework --classes that employees choose to take
on their own. It does not apply to coursework required for licensure or accreditation for an
employee's position, and it does not apply to occasional classes, seminars, workshops, and
conferences that the City makes available for training and development.

Dry Cleaning Station - Temporary Sign Permit

FILE NO.:
405 (Sign Permits)
Ms. Paula Green, owner of the Dry Cleaning Station at Shorewood Village Shopping Center, has
requested approval of a sign permit to display a temporary billboard announcing the grand
opening of her new store. The sign will be no larger than 32 square feet in area and will be
located in front of the Shopping Center. The applicant proposes to display the sign, upon
approval, for seven consecutive days, from July 26th until August 2nd. .
.
Section 1201.03 Subd. 11c.(4) of the City Code provides for the use of temporary signs twice
within any 12 month period, seven days at a time and no larger than 32 square feet in area. Our
records indicate that the Shorewood Village Center has not had more than one temporary sign
permit within the last 12 months. As such the permit is consistent with Shorewood's sign
regulations and should be approved.

.TO: City of Shorewood City Council
From: Tom Skramstad, LMCD Representative
Date: July 18th, 2005
Here is my "periodic" report of LMCD activities.
1. Summer Event: The LMCD, in cooperation with Crystal-Pierz Marine, will be having a special event on August
13 at the Excelsior Commons. The theme will be "The Future of the Lake." There will be exhibits on boating safety,
exotic species, fishing and lots more. We are arranging to have the Power Squadron and Water Patrol there, and a
milfoil harvestor. We hope to have a charter boat available to take visitors on rides. A banner will hang over Water
Street and posters will be made up and distributed. We expect good publicity from TV stations and the newspapers. If
successful, this will be become an annual event.
2. Deicina permits: In 2004 the LMCD placed a moratorium on the issuing of additional deicing permits so that
additional studying of this issue could take place. Good discussions have taken place and necessary revisions to
.current regulations are now in the works. The new regulations will define a specific area where the open water, unsafe
ice, and a protective fence must be, which is not clear in today's ordinance. It is also likely that restrictions will be placed
on smaller properties where deicing cannot be properly/safely done. It is also likely that the new regulation will not allow
deicing at residential "seasonal" docks (a seasonal dock is one that is put in with hand tools as opposed to mechanical
pile drivers.)
3. Milfoil Harvestina: Harvesting started on June 8th with harvestor launching in Spring Park Bay. The Upper
. Lake was harvested first and the Lower Lake is now being done. Milfoil growth is particularly heavy this season. After
one pass throughout the Lake, a second pass could be made into areas that need it. Harvesting is scheduled to end in
mid-August.
4. Zebra Mussel Prevention Proaram: This year the LMCD is once again working with the DNR to conduct zebra
mussel inspections on peak days, during peak times, at five selected public accesses (Grays Bay, Wayzata Bay,
Maxwell Bay, North Arm, and Spring Park.) In total, 2,200 hours will be expended in this year's effort. The LMCD will
. continue to evaluate how such inspections fit into the overall zebra mussel prevention program.
5. Boat Densitv Committee: A significant investment of Board time has been made in studying this matter, the
goal of which is to maintain or improve the public's ability to have a safe and enjoyable boating experience on the Lake.
A public hearing was held on May 11 th and a great deal of useful information and opinion was collected from public
testimony. An action plan has been developed and will be presented to the Board for approval at the July 27th meeting.
The recommended action plan includes: examining current regulations to ensure they still make sense; revising
regulations where needed; improving public awareness of existing regulations, developing an improved method of
enforcing existing regulations; publicizing "safe boater classes", and taking a leadership role in requiring a boating
driver's license/exam.
6. "Outreach Initiative": The LMCD Board has started an initiative to develop better working relationships with
others who have a strong interest in the Lake area community (realtors, dock installers, charter boat owners, marinas,
restaurants and more.) The objective is to have a much broader community of people working together for the
protection of the Lake.
. 7. Solar Liahts: 2005 will be the 4th year of attaching solar lights to the top of navigational buoys in high traffic
areas. The program has received much positive feedback.
#511
8. Water Patrol Deputy Proiect: This will be the 5th year of increased water patrol deputy presence on the Lake. .
The LMCD member cities were instrumental in launching this program in 2001 by providing partial funding. Funding has
come from the Hennepin County since 2003, which we hope will continue. The benefits to the Lake users and
surrounding communities are noticeable.
9. Boat Density and User Attitude Surveys: The LMCD Management Plan calls for these studies to be done
every 4 years. The latest studies were completed in 2004; and the results were presented to the Board in the Spring of
2005. A copy of the two studies will be sent to each member city along with a management summary.
10. Minnehaha Creek Watershed District: Several meetings have been held with this agency, and synergies
appear to be present in numerous areas: harvesting milfoil, protecting against zebra mussel infestation, use of
geographical information system technology, sharing summer interns, and coordination of general efforts/projects.
Further discussions are underway.
10. Budaet: The 2006 budget was mailed to the Cities at the end of June, meeting the July 1st deadline established
by the State Legislature. There was a 4.3 % increase over last year, which is primarily going to support increased .
regulation enforcement and zebra mussel prevention.

RE:
Raisbeck - Vacation of Existing Drainage and Utility Easements
FILE NO.:
405 (05.13)
Last month the City Council approved a minor subdivision/combination and a conditional use
permit for David and Ellen Raisbeck. A condition of the minor division was that the Raisbecks
would grant drainage and utility easements around the perimeter of the newly created parcel, per
ShorewoodSubdivision Code requirements. The Raisbecks also requested that existing
easements on the small parcel they are purchasing from Karen Zubert be vacated.
A public hearing has been scheduled for Monday night's Council meeting. A draft resolution is
attached for your consideration (Attachment I). Adoption ofthis resolution should be contingent
upon the Raisbecks recording the Easement Agreement (Attachment II) along with the vacation
resolution. The Easement Agreement is the document that provides for the new drainage and
utility easements.
Staff recommends approval of the resolution vacating the existing easement.

MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR

There were none.
4. REPORTS
A. Report on City Council Meetings
Brown reported that the past two City Council meetings were brief and that nothing pertaining to parks
was discussed.
B. Music in the Park Series
Chair Davis reported that she counted approximately 168+ people at the Music in the Park concert
featuring Big Walter. She indicated that the turnout was incredible, though the volume might have been a
bit too high further away from Eddy Station.
.
Famiok stated that the group was delightful, prompt, and pleasant. She disagreed that the volume was too
high, and instead felt the concert was fairly low key and enjoyable.
Brown commented that many seniors from the neighboring development complimented the city on the
event and many people seemed to stop spur of the moment to join in the festivities.
Chair Davis suggested the Commission begin thinking about what to add to the music series next year to .
continue to enhance this amenity. She indicated that the Parks Foundation would like to set up a funding
mechanism for fu~e events. The Commission set August 23rd, 7:00 am, at City Hall as the next work
session to specifically discuss the Music in the Park Series for 2006.
C. Skate Park Equipment
Brown stated that the Skate Park equipment has been received and would be installed after Public Works .
Staff have caught up with other projects. He hoped this would occur within the next week or so.
5. 2005 FIRST AND SECOND QUARTER REPORT FROM COMMUNITY REC
RESOURCES (CRR)
CRR Representative Kristi Anderson reviewed the memo provided to the Commission and discussed the
new process introduced to the sports organizations this past season. Now electronically reciprocated, the
data request forms submitted by the sports organizations in advance of the sports information meeting
allow CRR to develop a schedule that can be distributed at the meeting in exchange for fees and required
documentation.
Anderson continued, noting that use by additional sports organizations, such as Lacrosse and Men's
Adult Baseball have been successfully incorporated into the past schedule. In addition, Tonka United
Soccer Association (TUSA) hosted a tournament at Freeman, despite unpredictable weather. Other
observations included increased passive use of Freeman trails, little issue with regard to parking, and a
good balance struck at Badger and Manor with regard to neighborhood use and organized use.

The Commission thanked CRR for their ongoing coordinating services and communication,
complimenting them on their effectiveness and ability to manage organized use of park facilities.
6. WATER QUALITY MONITORING AT MANOR PARK POND
Westerlund reported that she has begun the process of collecting samples from Manor Park Pond,
submitting them to limnologist Hatch, who will have the samples analyzed, and will report back with the
results in the fall.
Farniok asked if Hatch would be willing to provide the Commission with some recommendations based
on the data results.
Westerlund stated that she would ask him to do so.
Young moved, Farniok seconded, to authorize the expenditure of $176.01 and authorize
Commissioner Westerlund to collect samples and data for the Manor Park Pond study. Motion
passed 5/0.
7. REQUEST FOR DEDICATION OF SIDRLEY RICE MEMORIAL
Farniok explained that the family of Shirley Rice set aside a fund to make enhancements to the memorial
garden with the help of the Shorewood Garden Club, of which Farniok is a member. The Club, in
conjunction with the family, would like to place a bronze plaque in honor of Shirley Rice with the
Commission's approval.
Young stated that he would support accommodating the family's wishes, as long as it complies with
policy.
Brown stated that he did not feel this to be a 'substantial gift' as defined by the donor policy; therefore,
he saw little conflict but wished to obtain Commission approval before proceeding.
Chair Davis stated that posting a plaque in her honor sets a good example for the community and
encourages others to follow suit.
Young suggested that a newsletter article acknowledging her contributions and inviting the public to the
dedication might be nice compliment to the plaque.
Westerlund suggested that the plaque memorialize the garden and her accomplishments more
specifically, in the event the park sign change someday, or knowledge of her contributions are lost.
Brown agreed, stating that the dedication builds community involvement and commemorates her efforts.
He suggested the garden club come before the Park Commission and City Council to get approval of a
concept plan, then the City will publicize the dedication in the newsletter.
Famiok stated that she would obtain specifics of Rice's contributions from a staff file and bring back a
concept plan to the next meeting.

EXPLORE METHODS TO REDUCE VANDALISM WITHIN THE PARKS
.
Brown stated that he had spoken to a number of agencies regarding vandalism within the parks. Some of
the basic tools to reduce vandalism include publicizing incidents of vandalism, publicizing the names of
the offenders, adequate lighting and public visibility, and public awareness programs and education.
Brown noted that the more the City gets the message out about vandalism that has occurred is vital in
reminding residents that they are key stakeholders and affected financially by the damage incurred.
Moonen commented that high resolution cameras are of great expense and would be a questionable
investment. He agreed that education and po stings about vandalism continue to be the best deterrents.
Chair Davis suggested that the City continue to monitor vandalism and deal with each occurrence on a
case by case basis.
Brown pointed out that, so far this year, vandalism has been quieter, though the City has an open line of
communication with the police and neighboring Freeman Park senior community.

9. DETERMINE LIAISON FOR JULY AND AUGUST CITY COUNCIL MEETING
July 25 - Farniok
August 22 - Chair Davis
10.
NEW BUSINESS
A. PARK VIEW SUBDIVISION
.
Brown reported that the proposed 10 lot subdivision at Manor Road and Suburban Drive will impact
stormwater management. He explained that, after much discussion, a concept plan which brings
stormwater along the back park side of several lots in a neighboring subdivision, will save numerous
mature trees along Manor Road. Brown stated that the developer has agreed to grant an easement along
the back side of his lots abutting Manor Park, in an effort to keep the aesthetics of the tree lined roadway .
in tact.
Young questioned what the impacts to the park pond will be.
Brown stated that the impacts will need to be evaluated. He noted that he had just received data from
WSB that indicated the current outlet is poor and slow to drain; however, it would be positive to
construct a sewer along the easement as opposed to losing the aesthetics along Manor Road. Brown
stated that the City is negotiating a comer outlet with the developers to improve the conditions.
Westerlund suggested it might be appropriate to contact the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District
(MCWD) to discuss the appropriation of funds from MCWD to investigate alternatives to curb and
gutter.
B. FREEMAN WETLAND ENHANCEMENT AND INTERPRETIVE CENTER
Brown explained that the report lays out suggested grading plans and wetland plantings of the area based .
on a hydrology of the area. The cost estimate of $427,000 outlines the steps involved. Brown pointed out
that a number of different organizations could contribute to any portion of the project and promote a
PARK COMMISSION MINUTES
TUESDAY, JULY 12, 2005

.
cooperative partnership together to accomplish this task. While a kiosk has been suggested for the
'point' , other areas include a meadow and a marsh area. Brown pointed out that a significant amount of
grading and clear cutting of buckthorn would be necessary to complete the project.
Chair Davis noted that the buckthorn removal project suggested for Freeman this fall might be a nice
preface to the wetland project.
Farniok concurred, stating that the buckthorn removal site, adjacent to the proposed wetland site, would
be a nice compliment to one another.
Westerlund stated that each piece makes up a significant portion of the large scale project, and should be
publicized more.
.
Brown stated that this area has been discussed as a stormwater project and treatment facility for quite
awhile and asked how the City could make this an amenity to the park, rather than just a place to
impound water.
Young asked whether the project would be subdivided out in pieces or bid out entirely. Furthermore, he
believed the Parks Foundation would really like to get involved in a project of this magnitude.
.
Brown stated that the project could be done in pieces, especially in light of the funding difficulties. He
noted that it would take many organizations, could serve many functions, and could be a real 'jewel' to
the community if the resources are available.
Farniok stated that this would be a great project.
Young stated that he felt the excitement could drive the project for many.
Westerlund pointed out that the project could be a controversial one from a public relations standpoint, if
the neighbors around the park are not informed and involved in the process and have a vision of the
. completed project.
Brown agreed, stating that he believed the greatest obstacle would be the tree removal, albeit buckthorn,
in the public eye it is still tree removal.
Chair Davis asked what the next step might be.
Brown asked the Commission if it would wish to study this project further or whether it would like to
proceed with what has been presented.
Westerlund stated that MnDOT is always looking for opportunities to mitigate development projects and
suggested that she take a set of plans to present to them, as well as others.
Brown reiterated that it seemed the Commission was comfortable with taking the plans out to various
funding agencies and reporting back at the August meeting. Commissioners concurred.
.
Chair Davis stated that the Parks Foundation would likely be interested in the kiosk piece, since overall
environmental missions interest them. She indicated that she would present the entire project to them and
/
PARK COMMISSION MINUTES
TUESDAY, JULY 12, 2005

get their response on July 20th. In addition, the Foundation expressed interest in drinking fountains at
Freeman and the Skate Park. Famiok agreed to join Davis at the Foundation meeting on July 20.
.
C. DOG PARK
Chair Davis stated that the Parks Foundation would be joining the funding effort for the Dog Park. One
proposal put forth by the Foundation was a suggestion that the Commission provide a matching grant up
to a certain level for the Dog Park.
Young suggested the cap for the matching grant be set at $5,000.
Chair Davis indicated that the estimate for the project was set at $100,000, as opposed to the original
$40,000, for trails, benches, lighting, bathrooms, and water.
Brown suggested that the Commission begin to give thought to what they wish to see set forth in the
Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for 2006.
.
Young moved, Westerlund seconded, recommending to the City Council that Park Funds, not to
exceed $5,000, will be used as matching funds for a dog park in conjunction with the Parks
Foundation. Motion passed 5/0.
Famiok asked if the Commissioners could receive copies of the draft minutes as soon as the recorder has
completed them for review.
Recorder Anderson stated that the completed draft minutes should not come from the Recorder, but from
Staff as they see fit by policy or law.
.
Brown indicated that he would check on the laws for providing draft minutes.
Brown suggested that the Commission submit its top 5 projects to the City Council for its CIP planning
process.
.
Farniok encouraged the Commissioners to give thought to this for discussion at the next meeting, in order
to submit the list to the City Council in September.
Westerlund suggested that the completion of the Manor Park Pond clean-up and planting effort be noted
in the CIP.
Chair Davis stated that she would be putting together an article for the newsletter which would include a
prelude to the buckthorn busting date to be set for fall.

MANOR PARK IMPROVEMENTS; POND CLEAN-UP, SHORELINE PLANTING,
BALL FIELD IMPROVEMENTS, OTHER; LAKE MINNEWASHTA DOG PARK
P ARTNERSmp; OTHERS AS SUGGESTED BY COMMISSIONERS AND STAFF
Chair Davis stated that the Foundation would be hosting a second fundraising breakfast slated for
September. She indicated that the Foundation had expressed interest in participating in a 'natural'
project. While the Freeman wetland project estimated at $400,000 might be a bit high for the Foundation,
the Manor Park pond project might be of interest.
Chair Davis noted that Commissioner Wagner had suggested proposing a security project for the
Foundation to partner with the City on. In addition, the Foundation had expressed interest in raising
funds for the regional dog park, or one member suggested rebuilding Manor Park's ball field to
accommodate Babe Ruth teams.
Young stated that, in his opinion, Manor Park ball field should remain the neighborhood park, as opposed
to a larger recreational baseball facility.
Westerlund concurred; stating that she would strongly oppose any move to enlarge the baseball fields,
pointing out that the parking would not accommodate such a move.
Chair Davis encouraged the Commission to brain storm additional ideas or suggestions of what it would
like seen done in the parks, in order to give the Foundation a focus for their breakfast fundraiser.
Young stated that the Commission has had a number of projects it's spent a great deal oftime on, most
significantly the Freeman Park wetland project, which he suggested be broken down into phases or pieces
for the Foundation to participate in. He maintained that the regional dog park had a great deal of
enthusiasm and support with or without the Foundations participation and he would not like to see them
spend a great deal of energy or time on the proj ect.
Westerlund agreed that it would be easy for the Foundation to be the vehicle to which funds are raised
for the dog park if they did not have to expend all oftheir energies on it alone. Westerlund pointed out
that the Freeman Park wetland project might qualify for numerous grants or other funding sources.

TUESDAY, JUNE 28, 2005
PAGE20F3
Westerlund noted that if she could get a copy of the plans to share with MnDOT and other organizations .
she might be able to investigate funding opportunities.
Farniok questioned whether the Foundation would find it more desirable to participate in a portion of a
large scale project or several smaller scale projects.
Brown stated that the City has a very good feasibility study for the Freeman wetland project that he could
share with the Commission at their next meeting. He pointed out that Planning Commissioner Cathy
White has expressed interest in performing the public education piece regarding buckthorn removal and
would host a buckthorn removal effort for Freeman Park in late October or early November.
As part of her training for master gardening, Chair Davis stated that White could accomplish a removal
effort with the support of a good public relations campaign.
Based on White's suggestion to assemble a few groups 25 for the project, Brown stated that the City
could purchase a couple of weed wrenches for the program. He further encouraged the removal to take
place as a preliminary step towards completing the wetland project.
.
While this would certainly be a worthwhile endeavor, Chair Davis noted that the Foundation expressed a
desire to participate in a project outside of Freeman Park, such as the Manor Pond project.
Passing around a rough memo outlining the expenditure of$176.00, Westerlund stated that she had
begun the water quality analysis of Manor Pond. She pointed out that the plantings near the waters edge
would be in addition to the estimate, but necessary as the geese problem poses a public health hazard.
Young suggested mentioning this proj ect to the Foundation as a small scale effort in water quality and
education.
.
Brown urged Westerlund to choose plantings that require little maintenance, as there is not a master
gardener on staff.
Westerlund felt that a 3 year commitment on behalf of neighborhood volunteers would result in a self .
maintaining area and suggested staff contact a consultant to layout a plan.
Brown stated that once the Commission reviewed the Freeman wetland project, they might be surprised
at the many facets of involvement for the Foundation, be it kiosks, an overlook area, or restoration.
Westerlund also suggested looking into an erosion control plan for the Silverwood Park sliding hill. On a
separate note, Westerlund pointed out that the Music in the Park series featuring Ms Catherine was a
phenomenal success. Based on this success, she suggested the Commission consider expanding the
program for next year and asking for Foundation support. She thought that a kid's or family friendly
series rotating between Shorewood parks might be an attractive opportunity for the Commission and
Foundation.
Young agreed that many residents might like the idea of a rotating parks program as a service that serves
citizens in all areas of Shorewood.
Brown reported that the new Skate Park equipment had arrived and the quality was fantastic in .
comparison to the past pieces. He pointed out that the replacement of the existing skate park equipment

or creating an area for adults to relax while watching their children might be another option for the
Foundation to support. Brown stated that, in fact, the City had recently extended water service to the
Skate Park and a fountain would be a nice addition to the park.
Westerlund reported that the Silverwood playground slide had a large crack in it and needed to be
replaced.
"
In summary, Chair Davis stated that the opportunities that she would be presenting to the Foundation
included; participation in a component of the long range water project at Freeman Park, a shorter term
Manor Park pond project encompassing a water quality and health issue, Skate Park water fountain and
adult friendly plaza area, and/or expansion of the Music in the Park series to additional family friendly
events.

1.
7:00 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING - C.u.P. AMENDMENT FOR ACCESSORY STRUCTURE
Applicant: Minnewashta Elementary School
Location: 26350 Smithtown Road
Chair Bailey opened the Public Hearing at 7:04 P.M., noting the procedures utilized in a Public Hearing.
He also noted items on the Agenda being recommended for approval this evening would be placed on the
July 25, 2005, Regular City Council Meeting Agenda.
Director Nielsen stated the Minnetonka School District proposed building a small accessory structure on the
site of the Minnewashta Elementary School located at 26350 Smithtown Road. The structure would be
located to the rear of the existing school building, adjacent to the playground area. He noted the school was
located in the R-lIA, Single-Family Residential zoning district and the Shorewood Zoning Code required
school buildings be processed by Conditional Use Permit. He then characterized the proposed structure as
being one story in height, measuring 20' x 30' and containing 600 square feet of floor area. The building
would be constructed of wood, with an asphalt shingle roof and a concrete slab for the floor. He also noted
the structure was very similar in character to the picnic pavilion in Freeman Park.
With regard to compliance with the City Code on this case, Director Nielsen stated due to the setback
requirement for the zoning district, the proposed building would be 50 feet from the east side lot line of the
school site. Staff recommended the landscaping that was done for the most recent addition to the school be
extended to the north by three additional trees. The proposed building would not affect existing parking or
necessitate additional parking, nor did the proposed structure affect existing loading or service areas. In
conclusion, Director Nielsen stated the proposed structure was consistent with the Shorewood
Comprehensive Plan and compatible with residential development, thus, Staff recommended the conditional
use permit be approved so that construction of the building could take place this construction season.

2.
7:15 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING - c.u.P. FOR FILL IN EXCESS OF 100 CUBIC YARDS
AND MINOR SUBDIVISION
Applicant: Ann Meldahl
Location: 6180 Cathcart Drive
Chair Bailey opened the Public Hearing at 7: 15 P.M.
Director Nielsen explained the applicants were the owners of the property at 6180 Cathcart Drive Last fall,
as the result of a neighborhood complaint, the City cited the applicants for placing fill and grading on the
site without necessary permits. The property owners were directed to either remove the fill and restore the
site, or apply for a conditional use permit. Due to concerns over drainage, the Minnehaha Creek Watershed
District (MCWD) issued a similar order, directing the applicants to submit an erosion control plan and to
apply for a fill permit. He went on to explain City Staff subsequently met with the owners to discuss issues
associated with the fill and grading work, and to review the process of obtaining a conditional use permit
for fill in excess of 100 cubic yards. Since then, they had commissioned a landscape architect to prepare
grading and landscaping plans. As explained in their request letter, the applicants proposed regrading the
site, by creating a series of shallow berms, with a swale to restore the previous flow of drainage through the
site. Director Nielsen also went on to state the property was zoned R-1A, Single-Family Residential, and
was presently occupied by the applicant's home, an attached garage and a detached garage.
Director Nielsen then explained that Shorewood's Zoning Code required a conditional use permit whenever
more than 100 cubic yards of material was brought onto a site. This equated to approximately 10 dump
truck loads of dirt. The subject fill on the site has been spread out, making it difficult to determine how
much material had been placed, but it was estimated that it amounted to several hundred yards. He the
reviewed the proposed grading plan for the property, noting the main issues appeared to be the effects of the
grading on the site and adjacent properties. He explained drainage on this site would run from north to
south, and the City's concern was that improper placement of fill could back up storm water runoff
upstream or force the natural drainage onto adjacent properties. Director Nielsen stated the applicants
advised the City that the Watershed District had approved their grading plan and they had received a fill
permit from the District to be presented to the City this evening.
Director Nielsen then explained that an old culvert located at the south end of the applicant's property
aggravated the drainage issue. After investigation earlier in the day, he explained this culvert was not
functional and appeared to have been filled in on the south side of West 62nd Street. As a result, the City
would be working with the City of Victoria to restore the flow that once existed in that area.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Steve Kronin, 6135 Cathcart Drive, stated he was concerned that additional water would potentially be
draining across Cathcart Drive onto his property as he already had an abundance of water in his yard.
Director Nielsen stated he did not believe any of this water should be backing up to Mr. Kronin's property
once the culvert was opened.
Chair Bailey closed the Public Testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 7: 18 P.M.
Chair Bailey questioned the process necessary should the current situation deteriorate into legal action
between parties involved. Director Nielsen explained the applicants and the City rely on the Minnehaha
Creek Watershed District Staffto provide a fill permit for this case, and a licensed engineer would have had
to sign offplans associated with the project, thus, recourse could be secured through those parties. He
further explained the applicants had made appropriate efforts in this process, noting a double fee had been
paid as was a matter of normal process. Additionally, legal action would be pursued should the process not
be followed in the next phases of the planning process, as well as the contractor being sued. With regard to
the landscape plan, Director Nielsen stated the City wished to see grass returned to the fill area and the site
restored to avoid erosion and filling the culvert on site. He stated the City would be relying on the MCWD
Staff and engineer to provide appropriate calculations for the swale detail on the site.
Commissioner Conley stated he did not believe enough information had been supplied at this time and
suggested additional information be secured from the MCWD, City Engineering Staff, and the applicant
prior to proceeding further in the planning process. Commissioner Gniffke agreed.
Ann Meldahl, applicant for the case, presented Director Nielsen with the appropriate fill permit from the
MCWD, and stated she had lived on the site for 51 years, with the last eight months being difficult as a
result of the fill issue. She stated there had never been water on her property until recently. She noted there
were two "holding ponds" that filled with water each spring on her property, and she continually noted the
water was three feet lower than the roadway surface and was not apt to drain. Further, Ms. Meldahl stated
the plans for the fill were necessary only to improve the water from the north that came onto her property,
and she had provided a swale for appropriate drainage on her property. The consultants she had worked
with to provide drainage and landscaping plans had both indicated the fill plans would not be a problem to
complete and would not provide additional water flow to others property as a result of this project. The
water that was on her property was coming on to it from other properties to the north of her and drained to
the culvert area. She requested the Commission allow her to move forward with her current plans in order
to bring resolution to this situation.
Director Nielsen stated correspondence had been received from two area residents and the Hennepin
County Railroad Authority regarding this project.
Commissioner White questioned the responsibility of lowering the culvert and associated issues. In
response to this question and others from other various Commissioners, Director Nielsen stated the person
desiring it to be lowered would most likely be responsible; however, he would need to verify the city's
responsibility in this matter. He further stated blocking the natural flow of water was not an option in any
event in this case. City Engineers from Shorewood and Victoria would need to review the situation and
provide adequate information on the culvert issue as a separate matter.
3. PUBLIC HEARING - LAKE VffiGINIA WOODS - PRELIMINARY PLAT
Applicant:
Location:
Virginia Shores Development, LLC
27975 Smithtown Road
Chair Bailey opened the Public Hearing at 7:40 P.M.
Director Nielsen explained this item was a continuation of a Public Hearing held on June 7, 2005, pending
resolution of a number of issues raised by City staff. The developer had since submitted a revised plat
addressing those issues. Director Nielsen noted the most significant change in the plat was that the
developer had agreed to work with the property owner to the north by combining the two parcels and
eliminating the need for a street extension and a future cul-de-sac to serve the northerly parcel. He
explained this not only resulted in vastly superior lots from the original plat, it resolved at least one of the
issues raised by the City's engineering consultant (the retaining wall), as well as lot configuration issues
raised by the Planning Department.
Director Nielsen went on to state all of the proposed lots exceeded the minimum size requirements for the
R-1NS zoning district, ranging in area from 41,216 to 63,202 square feet. The building pads shown on the
revised grading plan (Exhibit B) appeared quite ample for the size of homes that would undoubtedly be
built in this development. Although the grading plan had been revised to show larger building pads, it still
lacked the detail required by the City Engineer. The pads were shown as being "custom graded", which
was somewhat common for large custom homes. The City, however, required the grading plan to show low
floor and garage floor elevations on the grading plan. This grading plan should be submitted as part of the
final plat. It should be noted that, with the possible exception of Lots 1 and 2, none of the lots required
significant site alteration beyond what was necessary to build the homes.
With regard to the common driveway for Lots 1 and 2, he stated the plan demonstrated the driveway at 14
feet in width. Anything less than a fire access road (20 feet wide with adequate emergency vehicle turn-
around) required that the house on Lot 2 be sprinklered. It was also recommended the driveway be at least
16 feet in order to accommodate two cars passing one another. Further recommendations included the final
plat must include an easement/maintenance agreement between Lots 1 and 2 as well as a conservation
easement over the wetlands and the wetland buffer areas. As always, prior to the release of the final plat,
the developer would be responsible for providing payment of fees for the local sanitary sewer access
charges, park dedication fees, and municipal water connection charges. Director Nielsen also suggested one
additional recommendation that the trees around the ponding area and along the southerly portion of the
property include replacement trees focused in those areas. In conclusion, Director Nielsen stated the
revised plat was vastly improved by virtue of combining the two properties. It was therefore recommended
that preliminary plat approval be granted subject to the preceding and above recommendations and those of
the City's engineering consultant.
Terry Pernsteiner, representative of Virginia Shores, LLC, thanked the Commission and Staff for the time
and efforts associated with this project. He stated he had spoken with the neighboring homeowner
regarding driveway concerns that should no longer be a problem. Further, he stated Staffs
recommendations would he followed regarding replacement tree efforts.

. Paul Otto, engineer for the project, stated, with regard to the grading plan, there were no anticipated
problems with grading for the custom home sites, and an accurate plan would be provided with the final
plat. He also stated he had spoken to the City Engineer with regard to the driveway and grading.
.

.
.
John Van Geeson, 545 Smithtown Court on Lake Virginia, stated he wished to confirm the fact that there
were no lakeshore lots associated with this project, as he had received information from a realtor recently
indicating lake shore lots would be available as part of this project. He stated he and other areas residents he
was representing were concerned for the lake access through dockage, as well as water quality, and wetland
protection associated with this project. He further stated, as taxpayers, they wished to see preserve the lakes
and wetlands in that area. He noted several instances on Lake Virginia where riparian rights had been taken
not granted, and he was concerned this would also happen in this case.
Wendy Asplund, 590 Sunny Shadows, stated she was a recent resident to the area, and was quite concerned
about the small amount of land between her property and the common driveway. She also stated she was
concerned about the drainage and stormwater runoff from the proposed properties and questioned what
could be done to ensure there would be no water ponding in her backyard as a result of this project. She
stated she had a great amount of privacy currently and would like to see as many trees as possible retained
in the adjacent property line as possible to maintain that privacy. Any trees leftover from the project could
be placed in the property line area as well. Ms. Asplund further stated she believed the two additional
houses placed on the properties adjacent to her property were there to maximize the property, and she was
concerned for the amount of excavation taking place in such a small area as well as the narrow width to the
proposed driveway posing a public safety hazard in the house to be "sprinklered.:" In conclusion, she
stated, she was concerned for the protection of her property, home, and family, and asked consideration be
given to the setback issues associated with the driveway, as well as reforestation of the properties adjacent 0
to hers with a berm for her property and the adjoining neighboring property owned by the Stinchfields.
John Stinchfield, stated he had owned his property for fifteen years, and knew one day the properties behind
him would most likely be developed so he was understanding the efforts of the project, however, he agreed
with Mrs. Asplund regarding the two additional houses on the project property being there to maximize the
profit to the developer. He requested several trees be placed on the adjacent property line to ensure privacy,
and he was also concerned for the safety and maintenance of the common driveway as well as the inability
to have fire safety equipment in the area. He stated he believed the more trees that could be saved on the
properties adjoining his would only enhance the property value for the new owners.
Lucinda Kirchner, 27415 Maple Ridge Lane, questioned whether the site was an old Indian burial mound
site, given its history and proximity to the lake. Director Nielsen stated he was uncertain of this property
being a bUrial site, however, if there was evidence indicating such, than the City would need to be made
aware of that site.
Bradley Houser, 535 Lakeshore Court, questioned what prevented people from dredging wetlands to access
Lake Virginia or Lake Minnetonka from this property. He stated he was concerned about the potential
actions for dredging and filtration issues that would degrade the water quality.
Chair Bailey closed the Public Testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 8:09 P.M.
Director Nielsen explained, in response to a question from Commissioner White, once an owner purchased
the property, than that owner owned the trees at will. He noted preservation occurred in the planning and
construction phases of a project, and the developer was typically amenable to requests, since potential
homeowners often liked mature trees to remain on lots.
CITY OF SHOREWOOD PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
July 5, 2005
Page 6 of 7
In response to questions by Commissioner Woodruff, Director Nielsen explained the topography of Lot .
might demonstrate that the lot needed to be graded in order to provide a buildable site pad for a house. He
also noted City Code would not allow the grade on the property to be greater than 3: 1.
Director Nielsen then clarified the City's policy regarding "compel to comply" issues, noting that should a
property owner not respect the direction stated in the City Code regarding compliance, the City would seek
legal action against that homeowner to bring the property into compliance.
Chair Bailey clarified that the drainage on the driveway would be directed toward the wetland from Lots 1
and 2.
Mr. Pernsteiner stated the project developer would commit to a 10-foot driveway, and the mature walnut
trees, having a diameter near twenty inches, would remain on the property. He further noted Lot 2 was a
wonderful lot overlooking the wetland area. With regard to the pond on the project, he stated, that area
would be left in a natural stated, due to a conservation easement over that area.
Woodruff moved, White seconded, Recommending Approval of a Revised Preliminary Plat for Lake .
Virginia Woods, subject to all previous Staff recommendations, a 10 foot driveway setback, and
retention of the mature trees on the lots. Motion passed 6/0.

RE:
Lake Virginia Woods - Preliminary Plat
FILE NO.:
405(05.11)
.
BACKGROUND
.
Virginia Shores Development, LLC has arranged to purchase the property located on the east
side of Smithtown Road, just north of the ShorewoodlVictoria municipal boundary (see Site
Location map - Exhibit A, attached) from the V. S. Ridinger Trust. The property contains
approximately 16.4 acres ofland, 3.3acres of which is wetland. The property is currently vacant
and zoned R-IA1S, Single-Family ResidentiflllShoreland. As illustrated on Exhibit B, the
developer proposes to plat the property into 11 single-family residential lots, served by a cul-de-
sac street.
;'
The property is essentially a peninsula of high ground, bordered on three sides by a large wetland
basin to the north and west of Lake Virginia. The site is heavily wooded with maple, oak and
basswood trees on the upland portions of the property. A detailed description of the tree cover is
provided in Exhibit E, attached.
Land use and zoning surrounding the site are as follows:
.
South:
West:
undeveloped* (approx. three acres); zoned R-IA1S
wetland, then channel of Lake Virginia, then sing1e,-family residential; zoned R-
IAlS
wetland and single-family residential in Victoria
Smithtown Road, then single-family residential; zoned R-IA1S
North:
East:
* Although the developer has attempted to incorporate the vacant land to the north into his
project, he has been unable to come to terms with the adjoining property owner.

Memorandum
Re: Lake Virginia Woods - Preliminary Plat
1 June 2005
The proposed lots will be served by a cul-de-sac street, approximately 885 feet in length. The
street and utilities have also been stubbed out to the property to the north to comply with the
Subdivision Code requirement that streets and utilities must be brought to the edge of the
property. The lots range in size from 40,012 to 62,111 square feet, exclusive of wetland area,
and average 46,846 square feet.
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Following is how the proposed plat complies with Shorewood's development regulations:
A. Zoning Code. All lots meet or exceed the minimum size requirements for the R-IAlS zOliing
district - 40,000 square feet in area, 120 feet in width and 150 feet in depth. The building
pads shown on the preliminary grading plan (Exhibit C) measure 60' x 60'. While the 60-
foot depths may be realistic, the 60- foot widths are considered somewhat modest perhaps for
the size of houses anticipated to be built on the lots. It appears that most of the lots will
accommodate 70-80' building widths. Realistic building pads are important for evaluating
site alteration and tree preservation.
The project is entirely within the "S", Shoreland zoning district for Lake Minnetonka and
Lake Virginia. As such the lots are subject to a maximum impervious surface ratio of 25
percent.
It should be noted that the setbacks illustrated on the preliminary plat have been adjusted by
staff. The street extension to the north changes what is considered front and rear on Lots 9
and 10.
tot 2 technically has the minimum required width on the new street. As a practical matter
the building pad for that lot will be located south of the wetland that extends through the
property. The lot will be accessed by a common driveway off Smithtown Road that will also
serve Lot 1. An easement and maintenance agreement must be provided as part of the final
plat submission. Due to its distance from Smithtown Road, the house on Lot 2 will have to
be sprinklered to comply with Fire Code requirements. Inadequate room exists on the site to
provide a turn-around adequate for fire trucks.
B. Subdivision Code.
1. Street Design. The proposed street is 885 feet long, with a proposed right-of-way width
of 50 feet, terminating in a 100- foot diameter cul-de-sac. The paved surface is 24 feet
wide, exclusive of curb and gutter width, and the turn-around is 90 feet in diameter. The
street grade does not exceed four percent. Street specifications will be addressed under
separate cover by the City Engineer.

Memorandum
Re: Lake Virginia Woods - Preliminary Plat
1 June 2005
2. Grading, Drainage, Erosion Control and Utilities. These items are addressed under
separate cover by the City's engineering consultant, WSB & Associates. In addition the
following comments should be considered:
a. Grading. The preliminary grading plan (Exhibit C) shows only the grading for
development improvements. Building pads are simply shown as "custom graded".
Shorewood requires grading plans to include lot grading in order to ensure that
drainage works from one lot to the next. The grading plan should be revised to
include building type and lowest floor and garage elevations for the proposed
building pads. As mentioned above, the building pads should be revised to reflect the
size of homes that will be built on the property.
b. Drainage.. For the most part, drainage on this project is relatively simple. The
majority of storm water runoff is conducted to the street, then into a proposed pond
located in front of Lots 2 and 3. Rear yards. simply drain to the wetland areas that
border the site. The developer must provide storm water runoff calculations for
review by the City Engineer to determine that the pond is adequately sized to control
the rate ofninoff. Due to the size of the project, the plat is subject to review and
approval by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District.
The plat provides drainage and utility easements, 10 feet in width, around each of the
lots. A similar easement must be provided over the wetland areas.
c. Sanitary Sewer. Sanitary sewer is available in Smithtown Road. Prior to release of
the final plat the developer must pay local sanitary sewer access charges in the
amount of $13,200 ($1200 per lot).
d. Water. City water is immediately available to the proj ect from Smithtown Road. The
developer is required to pay $10,000 per lot in connections charges, from which his
cost of extending the water main may be deducted.
e. Park Dedication Fees. The Subdivision Code requires the developer to pay $2000 per
lot for park dedication fees, totaling $22,000 for the project.
f. Plat Requirements. The plat needs to include "Block I". This can be added on the
final plat. Also, the lot line between Lots 4 and 5 should be extended straight south to
the southerly boundary of the plat. Similarly, the lot line between Lots 7 and 8 should
be straightened and radial from the center ofthe cul-de-sac.
C. Wetlands. Existing wetlands have been shown on the developer's plans. The 35-foot
wetland buffer required by Shorewood's Code is highlighted with cross-hatching. The
setbacks shown on the preliminary plat provide the IS-foot setback from the wetland buffer.
As part of the final plat, the developer must provide a plan illustrating where wetland buffer
stakes will be placed. The final plat submission should also include a separate deed from the
property owner to the City providing a conservation easement over the wetland buffer areas.

Re: Lake Virginia Woods - Preliminary Plat
1 June 2005
D. Tree Preservation/Reforestation. The developer has submitted one of the most thorough tree
inventories and analysis we have seen. This is very important, given the very wooded nature
of the property. Construction limits have been shown on the preliminary grading plan.
Exhibit D illustrates how trees may be removed to accommodate the home sites. The tree
preservation guidelines included in Exhibit E provide excellent recommendations relative to
tree removal and protection of trees to be saved.
The developer's forestry consultant points out that the project will be subject to the
maximum tree replacement of eight trees per acre, or approximately 136 trees. A
reforestation plan has not been submitted as ofthis writing. Given the extent of existing trees
on the site, it is difficult to picture where all the replacement trees will go. The developer is
reminded that the City's Tree Preservation and Reforestation Policy allows excess trees to be
placed on public property, or cash-in-lieu of trees can be contributed to a City tree fund, used
for placing trees on public land.
E. Street Lighting. Nothing in the developer's application indicates that street lighting will be
included in the plat. This issue should be addressed by the developer at the public hearing.
RECOMMENDATION
It is extremely unfortunate that the developer and the property owner to the north can not come
to terms and combine their land into one development. Cooperation would benefit both parties
by reducing the presence and cost of extra street and utilities, and the resulting lots would be
considerably better for both owners. Nevertheless, the City can not force landowners to purchase
or sell property. The best the City can do in this case is to enforce its development regulations.
While the preliminary plat is generally consistent with Shorewood's development regulations,
there are a number of issues contained herein and in the City's engineering consultant's report
that should be resolved. In this regard, there are two possible recommendations that could be
made: 1) the plat could be approved subject to the developer resolving all issues as part ofthe
final plat; or 2) the plat could be tabled, pending the developer's submission of revised plans
addressing planning and engineering issues.

Tree Preservation - Lake Virginia Woods
4/29/05
I.
Introduction:
This report accompanies the Tree Preservation Plan and tree inventory for the proposed
development, Lake Virginia Woods (developer - Terry Pernsteiner). I have visited the site and
verified tree species as well as evaluated the existing trees for condition. The woodland on the
whole appears to be primarily a maple-basswood forest. Most of it is of high quality with little
evidence of invasive plant species in the interior away from the roadway. The predominant species
on the site is sugar maple. The proposed development will consist of 11 large lots and it is intended
that as many good quality trees will be preserved as possible.
II.
Tree Species and Distribution:
The largest trees on the site are red oak, sugar maple and basswood. The next largest trees
consist of many 10-14 in. sugar maple, some basswood and red oak and a few of other species such
as hackberry, elm, ash, locust, black walnut, hickory, butternut, boxelder, willow and cottonwood.
Except for the entrance to the property, which has suffered some disturbance, the understory is quite
open with little buckthorn or other shrubby species. I would suspect that during the growing season
there is a healthy layer of herbaceous plants such as wildflowers and ferns.
Above the wetland on the SW portion of the property, especially closer to the road, there are
less valuable tree species such as cottonwood, boxelder and Siberian elm. As one moves further
east, there are more sugar maple, butternut, oak, and walnut.
III.
Tree Condition:
Tree condition for all significant trees in the inventory was rated as "good", "fair", "poor", or
"dead". The characteristics of each category are: "good"(good form for species, little dead wood in
canopy, no structural defects, wounds, or evidence of serious disease or insect problems), "fair"

(form less than ideal for species, some dead wood in canopy, structural defect(s) which could be
taken care of by pruning or cabling, wounds in trunk or branches which do not compromise health or
structural stability, little evidence of serious disease or insect problems), "poor"(poor form for
Tree Preservation - Lake Virginia Woods 4/29/05 - 2
species, a lot of dead wood in canopy, structural defect(s) or wounds which compromise the health
and/or structural stability of the tree, serious disease or insect problem which will contribute to
further decline or death of tree), and "dead"(very little to no sign of life). Trees on this site were
generally rated in "fair" condition. Most trees had some dead wood in crowns. Some of the trees had
structural defects or decay and in some cases this was severe enough to give them a condition rating
of "poor". Trees in the "poor" category should be removed prior to construction if they are near the
house, driveway or yard. If a tree was cracked, broken or had severe internal decay, such that it was
an immediate risk, it was rated "poor-risk" and also should be removed prior to construction.
In the lots to the south near the end of the cul-de-sac (mainly #5 and #6) there is a large area
containing a number of dead red oak. This area of dead red oaks could signify the presence of oak
wilt disease and the remaining live red oak in that area should be inspected for evidence of the
disease in July and August of this year. If disease is found, the area will be evaluated for treatments
to manage the oak wilt before it spreads to any surrounding healthy oaks.
IV.
Tree Preservation:
A. The Tree Preservation Plan (contents)
1. Limits of Land Disturbance (grading)
2. Tree Protection Zones (indicated placement of protective fencing)
3. Location of Significant Trees to be Saved or Removed (differentiated by color)
4. Detail Drawings for Tree Protection (fencing and signage)
5. Detail of Applicable Utilities (sewer and water along internal roadway)
B. Specimen Trees & Tree Groups
1. There are two large oaks by the entrance which are in or near the proposed corridor
for the road. One of these trees is in poor condition and the other is in fair-poor
condition due to storm damage and evidence of internal decay. I would not
recommend changing the road corridor to preserve these trees. They are in decline
and will continue to decline as a result of site disturbance. If preserved, they would
be a potential risk to vehicles and passers-by.
2. Some of the large sugar maple on the site, including several by the existing,road, are
in poor condition. These trees are a potential risk and should not be preserved when
they are near roadways, driveways or dwellings.
3. .A significant asset for the site are the number of smaller, healthy trees (<15 in.
diameter), particularly maple and oak, which are more tolerant of soil disturbance
-- 2- -
.
and other construction impacts than are larger, more mature trees. Maintaining
species diversity is also important, and will improve the longevity and future health
of the woodland outside the construction area.
4. There are many small sugar maple on site and some of these could be transplanted
via tree spade from areas where construction will occur to tree preservation areas.
5. There are trees worthy of being saved in all areas of the development. Specific trees
will again be looked at during the tree preservation process for individual lots.

C. Protective Measures to be Followed
.
2.
.
3.
4.
.
5.
.
1. Trees will be saved in groups whenever possible, rather than saving them as single
speCImens.
Trees to be preserved will be fenced at the dripline (or further from the trunks)
before any equipment appears on the site and fencing will stay in place throughout
the construction process. Signage will be put on the fencing regarding the purpose
of the fencing and that it is not to be moved. There will be contractor and sub-
contractor education required regarding tree protection practices on the site.
No construction activity will occur within the dripline of any tree to be preserved.
Equipment clean-out areas will be located at least 40 feet from any trees to be
saved.
Staging/storage areas for equipment will be located in areas away from trees to be
preserved.
If excavation cuts into woody tree roots, root ends will be cut off cleanly and
covered over with soil. Before tree clearing either a modified vibratory plow or
"ditch-witch" will be used to cut a narrow trench 2 feet or more deep to sever roots
of nearby trees (of the same species as trees being removed) to prevent root tearing
during excavation or grubbing of stumps.
6. Directional felling of trees into road corridor or building lot footprint will be done
to
minimize wounding of trees to be preserved.
7. All efforts will be taken to avoid pruning or wounding oaks from April 1 st to
September 15th to prevent insect transmission of the oak wilt fungus to fresh
wounds. If oaks are pruned or wounded during this time, wounds will be painted
- 3-
.
immediately with paint or shellac. If live oaks are cut during this time, the stump
surface will be painted immediately, unless the stump is removed the same day.
D. Tree Preservation Plans for Individual Building Lots
1. Besides tree preservation on the development level, this project will also work with
builders and property owners on each individual lot to site the driveway, utilities
and house to maximize tree preservation. Tree protection fencing will also be
erected on individual lots and kept in place during the construction period.
2) Tree Replacement:
A..Number of Replacement Trees:
.
Trees which are removed in the process of development are required to be replaced. The
maximum number of trees which would be required to be replaced on site is 8 trees per acre.
The
development consists of approximately 17 acres. The maximum number of trees which then
would be required to be planted on site for this development would be 136.
-Tree Preservation - Lake Virginia Woods 4/29/05 - 4
B. Species:
.
The replacement trees will be a species similar to the trees lost or removed and for this site
could include species such as: green ash (improved cultivars), river birch, Kentucky coffeetree,
flowering crabapple, hackberry, hickory, ironwood, American linden (basswood), red maple,
sugar maple, bur oak, northern pin oak, red oak, swamp white (bicolor) oak, white oak, Ohio
buckeye, and black walnut.
C. Location of Replacement (& Transplanted) Trees
Replacement trees will be located along the boulevard, in the area of the stormwater
detention pond, and in planting spaces on each of the eleven building lots.

We have reviewed the preliminary plan submittal for the Lake Virginia Woods subdivision,
dated March 28, 2005 and April 15, 2005 prepared by Otto Associates. Upon completion of all
changes, please return the attached set of red lines along with an updated set of plans. We have
the following comments:
-
Preliminary Plat
1. Plat should show drainage and utility easements across all wetlands and buffer areas
for all lots that have wetlands.
2. Submit wetland report so WSB can verify delineation.
.
Preliminary Utility Plan
1. Realign sanitary sewer at Smithtown Road to minimize street construction.
2. Show sanitary sewer and water main services. Sanitary sewer services should be 6-
inch PVC, SDR-26 with clean-out provided if greater than 90-feet in length. Sanitary
sewer should be a minimum of 9-feet deep at property line.
3. Verify with City of Shorewood if water main should be 8-inch.
4. Provide plan and profiles for final plans.

Preliminary Street Plan
1. Indicate height and type of retaining wall. If over 4- feet tall, the design should be
certified by a registered structural engineer.
2. The proposed retaining wall is 3 to 5 feet in height and it is adjacent to a pond tllat is
10-feet deep. It is recommended that the pond be moved to a different location or the
retaining wall be eliminated.
3. Storm sewer design calculations will need to be provided to show the adequacy of the
two catch basins draining the low point at approximate Station 2+20.
Preliminary Grading Plan
1.
The developer's engineer will need to provide pond calculations for the 2, 10, and
100-year storm events that demonstrate that the rate control requirement has been
met.
2.
The allowable minimum low building opening elevation for all lots must be shown on
the grading plan. In addition, the 100-year high water level (HWL) for the ponds
must be shown. The low floor elevations must be consistent with City policy, which
requires 2-foot of freeboard between the lOO-year HWL and the low building opening
and 4- foot of separation between the pond normal water level and the low floor
elevation, whichever is greater.
3. The pond located on Lot 3 will require an outlet structure with a submerged pipe or
other appropriate skimmer device.
4.
It is unclear the purpose of the pond on Lot 2 so the design criteria cannot be
evaluated at this time. Is this a pond to meet the requirements ofNPDES Phase II
rules or is this pond for rate control?
5. The developer will need to apply for a permit from the Minnehaha Creek Watershed
District (MCWD).
6. The developer will have to apply for a construction permit from MPCA, which will
require the completion of a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). It is
recommended that this SWPPP be included within the plan sets for further review, as
the City may be responsible for revealing compliance during construction.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council
.
FROM:
Brad Nielsen
DATE:
29 June 2005
RE:
Lake Virginia Woods - Revised Preliminary Plat
.
FILE NO.:
405 (05.11)
At the June meeting of the Planning Commission, the hearing for the preliminary plat of
Lake Virginia Woods was continued, pending resolution ofa number of issues raised by
City staff. The developer has now submitted a revised plat (see Exhibit A) addressing
those issues. Following are staffs comments on the revised plans:
.
I. The most significant change in the plat is that the developer has gotten together
with the property owner to the north, combining the two parcels, eliminating the
need for a street extension and a future cul-de-sac to serve the northerly parcel.
This not only results in far superior lots than the original plat, it resolves at least
one of the issues raised by the City's engineering consultant (the retaining wall
near the pond is shorter), as well as lot configuration issues raised by the Planning
Department.
2. All of the proposed lots exceed the minimum size requirements for the R-1NS
zoning district. The lots now average 48,700 square feet in area and range in area
from 41,216 to 63,202 square feet. The building pads shown on the revised
grading plan (Exhibit B) appear quite ample for the size of homes that will
undoubtedly be built in this development.
.
3. Although the grading plan has been revised to show larger building pads, it still
lacks the detail required by the City Engineer. The pads are shown as being
"custom graded", which is somewhat common for large custom homes. The City,
n
~.1 PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER
.
Memorandum
Re: Lake Virginia Woods - Revised Preliminary Plat
29 June 2005
however, requires the grading plan to show low floor and garage floor elevations
on the grading plan. This should be submitted as part of the final plat. It should
be noted that, with the possible exception of Lots 1 and 2, none of the lots require
significant site alteration beyond what is necessary to.build the homes.
4. The common driveway for Lots 1 and 2 is shown at 14 feet. Anything less than a
fire access road (20 feet wide with adequate emergency vehicle turn-around)
requires that the house on Lot 2 be sprinklered. It is also recommended that the
driveway be at least 16 feet in order to accommodate two cars passing one
another.
The final plat must include an easement/maintenance agreement between Lots 1
and 2~
....
5. As mentioned in the previous report, the final plat must include a conservation
easement over the wetlands and the wetland buffer areas.
6. Prior to release of a final plat, the developer must pay the following fees and
charges:
.
a. Local sanitary sewer access charges - $1200 x 13 = $15,600.
b. Park dedication fees - $2000 x 13 = $26,000.
c. Municipal water connection charges - $10,000 x 13 = $130,000 - cost of
extending water main to lots (to be determined).
.
The revised plat is vastly improved by virtue of combining the two properties. It is
recommended that preliminary plat approval be granted subject to the preceding and
above recommendations and those of the City's engineering consultant.

RE:
Minnewashta Elementary School- C.U.P. for Accessory Structure
.
FILE NO.: 405 (05.16)
BA-CKGROUND
.
The Minnetonka School District proposes to build a small accessory structure on the site of the
Minnewashta Elementary School located at 26350 Smithtown Road (see Site Location map -
Exhibit A, attached). As shown on Exhibit B, the structure will be located to the rear of the
existing school building, adjacent to the playground area. The school is located in the R-l/A,
Single-Family Residential zoning district. Section 1201.10 Subd. 4.b. of the Shorewood Zoning
Code requires that school buildings be processed by Conditional Use Permit. A public hearing
has been scheduled for 5 July 2005.
Exhibit C shows in perspective view how the new building will look. It is one story in height,
measures 20' x 30' and contains 600 square feet of floor area. The building will be constructed
of wood, with an asphalt shingle roof and a concrete slab for the floor. The structure is very
similar in character to the picnic pavilion in Freeman Park.
ANAL YSIS/RECOMMENDA TION
Section 1201.10 Subd. 4.d. of the Zoning Code sets forth several criteria for the consideration of
a conditional use permit for a school building. Following is how the proposed building complies
with the Code:
.
1.
The minimum side yard setback requirement for the R-IA Zoning District, in which the
school is located, is doubled, to twenty feet. The proposed building will be 50 feet from
the east side lot line of the school site.

Memorandum
Re: Minnewashta Elementary School C.U.P.
29 June 2005
2. It is recommended that the landscaping that was done for the most recent addition to the
school be extended to the north. Three additional trees is considered to be adequate.
3. Parking is in place for the school. The proposed building does not affect existing parking
or necessitate additional parking.
4. The proposed structure does not affect existing loading or service areas.
5. The proposed structure is consistent with the Shorewood Comprehensive Plan and is
compatible with residential development.
Based upon the preceding it is recommended that the conditional use permit be approved so that
construction of the building can take place this construction season.

RE:
Meldahl, Ann - Conditional Use Permit for Fill In Excess of 100
Cubic Yards
FILE NO.:
405 (05.15)
BACKGROUND
Ann and John Meldahl are the owners of the property at 6180 Cathcart D.riv~(see Site
Location map- Exhibit A, attached). Last fall, as the result of a neighborhood
complaint; the City cited the Meldahls for placing fill and grading on the site without the
necessary permits. The property owners were directed to either remove the fill and
restore the site, or apply fora conditional use perinit. Due to concerns over drainage, the
Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD).issued a similar order, directing the
~eldahls to submit an erosion control plan and to apply for a fill permit
Staff subsequ,ently met with the owners to discuss issues associated with the :fill and
grading work, and to review the process of obtaining a conditlon8J. use permit for :fill in
excess of 100 cubic yards. Since then, they have commissioned a landscape architect to
prepare grading and landscaping plans (see Exhibits a-D). As explained in their request
letter, the applicants propose to regrade the site, creating a series of shallow berms, with a
swale to restore the previous flow of drainage through the site. -
Tht;: property is zoned R-IA, Single-Family Residential, and is presently occupied by the
applicant's home, an attached garage and a detached garage.

Memorandum
Re: Meldahl CUP
30 June Z005
ANAL YSISIRECOMMENDATION
Shorewood's Zoning Code requires a conditional use permit whenever mOIethan 100
cubic yards of material is brought on to a site. This equates to approximately 10 dump
truck loads of dirt. The subject fill has been spread out on the site, making it difficult to
determine how muclimaterial has beenplaced, but ins estimated that it amounts to
several hundred yards.
Exhibit B is the proposed grading plan for the property. From a City Code perspective,
the main issues are the effects ofthe grading and filling on area drainage and existing
trees on the site. The second issue is somewhat mute; since no trees will be impacted by
the grading work
.-
Drainage on this site runs from north to south. The City's cOncern is that improper
placement offill could back up storm water runoff upstream or force the natural drainage
onto adjacent properties. The applicants advise us that the Watershed District has
approved their grading plan and they have received a fill permit fromthe District. The
permit and Watershed District recommendations will be provided prior to Tuesday
night's meeting.
.
It is worth noting that an old culvert located at the south end of the Meldahl property
aggravates the drainage issue. This culvert does/not appear to function and appears to
have been filled in on the south side of West 6Znd Street. The City will be working with
the City of Victoria to rest()re the flow that once existed:
.
Any approval ofthe conditional use permit should be subject to the recommendations of
the Minnehaha Creek:Watershed and the City Engineer. . The grading work and site
restoration should be required to be completed no later than 15 September. Finally, the
_ grading plan must be signed by a registered engineer or landscape architect.

City of Shorewood
5755 Country Club Road
Shorewood, MN 55331
Re: Description of Project - Meldahl Residence, 6180 Cathcart Drive, Shorewood,
MN 55331
The specified area on the West Side of the property will be regraded to a gentle
slope with berms and a drainage swale. The drainage swale width will conform to the
specifications and recommendations of the City of Shorewood and the Minnehaha Creek
Watershed District. The elevation for the bottom of the swale will be at the original
. elevation of the land before the fill was brought in. The drainage swale itself will be
constructed of a base of erosion control and weed barrier fabric, landscape rock and
assorted boulders (12" - 36"). Once the area is graded and contoured to satisfaction, it
will be planted with grass seed, trees and shrubs. Please see the attached plan for the
overall planting concept. The actual planting, however, will be done in phases. Phase
. one will include grass seed, major trees and a few shrubs, along with shredded wood
mulch. Phase two will include a majority of the shrubs. Phase three will include the
remainder of the shrubs, the perennials and groundcovers.
Please refer to the following plans for details:
. 1) Site plan with elevation contours and drainage arrows.
2) Erosion control plan with silt fence locations.
3) Permanent stabilization plan with plant species and locations.

Re: Conditional Use Permit - Meldahl Residence, 6180 Cathcart Drive, Shorewood,

Proposed Erosion Control Measures (also see attached erosion control plan):
.
1) A silt fence will be installed around the entire (specified) area while work is being
performed.
2) After grading and contouring is complete, mulch and seed will be installed in their
respective areas (see attached plan) and the first phase ofplantings will be completed.
3) Proposed seeding plan - grass seed will be spread in designated areas on top of soil
with an erosion mat placed on top of the seed. This action will reduce loss of seed
and soil until the grass roots have established themselves.
4) Once the mulching and seeding is complete, the silt fence will be removed and
disposed of.

Planning Director
City of Shorewood
.
The Carlson's reside directly across the railroad right of way from the Meldahl's at the
corner of West 62nd St. and Cathcart Drive. Down the edge of our property flows all the
water from the east end of Aster Trail, the south end of Cathcart Drive, from the railroad
right of way (the nature trail for several 100 feet on either side of our property) and from
all the residents of this area, plus the run off from the intersection of Aster Trail, Cathcart
Drive, West 62nd Street and the railroad right of way. We are prepared to receive this run
off as it is the natural path for such run off and has been flowing along the same path
since the railroad built their rail bed and allowed for its flow under said bed. The
Meldahl's work will not affect the flow at all.
.
I have personally examined their plans and I am in support of approval for their
conditional use permit. Thank you.

Re: PIN 32-117-23-33-0038
Conditional Use Permit for 6180 Cathcart Drive
Brad,
I have a concern regarding the issue of the Conditional Use Permit.
.
As the neighboring property located on the west side of the 6180 property, my primary
concern is the drainage plan. As you can see from the attached photos, there exists a high
water issue during periods Df heavy rain Dr spring thaw. The phDtD wa.s taken priDr tD the
addition of the new fill
I want to make sure that any change to the natural slope be approved by a licensed
engineer that specializes in drainage issues, as my property is the one that will be directly.
affected by a poor or hasty drainage plan,.
.
If the dirt is allowed to remain in its current location, my basement will flood during the
next period ofbigh water. The original drainage wasn't good, the current situation is
impossible.
Thank You,

Response to Request for Position on SLMPD Issues Group Matters
.
At its meeting on June 30, 2005, the Greenwood City Council encouraged all of the councils of the
SLMPD member cities to make concise written statements of their positions regarding matters
considered and not considered by the SLMPD Issues Group. At its July 18 work session, the Council
directed staff to prepare a statement about its commitment to the Issues Group process, and to restate
its willingness to continue to work through issues that had not been addressed by May 31, 2005.
.
A draft of that document, a letter to the Chair of the SLMPD Coordinating Committee, has been
prepared for Council's consideration.

Bob Newman, Chair
Coordinating Committee
South Lake Minnetonka Police Department
24150 Smithtown Road
Shorewood, Minnesota 55331-8598
Dear Mr. Newman:
.
The Greenwood City Council has asked each of the councils of the SLMPD member cities to prepare
a concise written statement of its positions with respect to the Issues Group process. The Shorewood
City Council's statements follow in this letter to the Coordinating Committee.
*********
The City of Shorewood is vitally concerned that its residents and businesses are provided proper .
public safety services, including police. The four SLMPD member cities have owned and operated
their joint police department since 1973, and the levels of staffing and range of services have changed
as the needs of individual cities and the four-city community have evolved. Through the 2002 budget
year, the city councils provided the financial resources necessary to provide high-value police
services at reasonable costs. Actions taken one member city council for the 2003, 2004, and 2005
budget years compromised the ability of the other city councils to meet their responsibilities for
police services, and resulted in their need to pay for additional services in 2004 and 2005 just to .
maintain historic levels of policing.
Shorewood consistently has believed that the SLMPD is the most economical and rational way to
provide police services to four cities with small populations and jumbled city boundaries. Shorewood
has also been consistent in its belief that the SLMPD has been successful because each of the cities
has been an equal partner. If anyone city were to have responsibility for more than one-half of the
cost of Department's operations, it would remove this equality of partnership and seriously bring into
question whether a joint-powers approach is the way to provide police services to the four cities.
The City Council has eagerly sought opportunities to address the financial issues raised by SLMPD
cities since 2003. After many attempts without much success to bring meaningful discussion and
resolution, the City Council on December 13, 2004, endorsed the proposal by the SLMPD's
Coordinating and Operating Committees that became the basis for the Issues Group process. It
especial.lY concurred with the recommendation that the Group's work be concluded by May 31, 2005, .
so that issues would be resolved in a focused time frame and in time for consideration of the 2006
SLMPD budget. The Council was disappointed by the lack of prompt agreement that delayed the
start of the Issues Group process until the latter part of February.

Position regarding SLMPD Issues Group
July 26, 2005
Page 2
The Shorewood City Council appointed two representatives to the Issues Group, and then trusted
their participation and the process to develop a recommendation on what change( s) should be made to
the joint powers agreement and administrative procedures. The representatives gave periodic reports
to the rest of the Council, most notably early on in the process when it was apparent that (1) not all of
the issues listed would be able to be addressed by May 31, and (2) that there would be one proposal
with interdependent parts-a single package that would need to be voted on. The Council agreed
with its representatives (1) that the issues not considered or left unresolved would be addressed after
May 31, and (2) on voting one package of recommended changes up or down.
On June 13, the City Council reviewed the recommendation of the Issues Group, and then decided to
continue the matter to its June 27 meeting. At that meeting the Council approved the Issues Group's
recommendation on a 4-1 vote (with the dissenting member believing that Excelsior had not provided
persuasive evidence nor arguments for its request). In its discussion and action, the Council:
. Agreed with the Issues Group's recommended changes
. Stated that its approval was valid until midnight June 30, 2005
. In the event that all cities had not approved the Issues Group's proposal by that time, directed
its City Attorney to begin to examine alternatives to dissolve the SLMPD
. Committed to continue discussion on the matters identified but not addressed by May 31,
. . . prc>viden-tlrattheresolutiorrufthemattersdiscussedtodate--1he-Issues-Greup's prepesal-
was approved by all city councils.
The City Council's position with respect to the Issues Group process has been stated and acted upon
already with its approval of the Issues Group recommendation. The City Council acted in good faith
throughout the process, including the agreement among all parties to adhere to the May 31 and June
30 deadlines.
The City Council has also noted that the SLMPD is a business partnership among four jurisdictions.
It is a far more economical approach for each city, compared to what it would cost each city to
provide its own 24-hour service. It is more responsive for each city, compared to what its position
would be in contracting for services. The SLMPD serves one geographic area with the pooled
resources of its member cities, and each member has a different set of needs and use of SLMPD
resources. The JP A must reflect these differences among its partners.

A majority ofthe Shorewood City Council remains very disappointed that the Issues Group's
recommendation was not approved by June 30, and that it is now necessary to look at alternatives to
the existing JP A.

RE:
Authorize the Preparation of Plans Specifications and Engineers Estimate for the
Wedgewood Drive, Mallard Lane and Teal Circle Reconstruction Project.
.
On June 9, 2005 City Staff conducted the last of the public information meetings for the Wedgewood
Drive, Mallard Lane and Teal Circle reconstruction project. Staff presented the various alternatives for
the roadway, along with the considerations for the installation of city water service. Attachment 1
depicts the project area. The meeting was well attended.
In addition, staffs offered comment sheets, e-mail addresses, and contact information for residents to
provide feedback on the project. Feedback received has been included in the appendices of this
memorandum.
.
Staff will present, both here and at the City Council meeting a summary of each of the main design
alternatives for the project.
Ditches or Concrete Edges/Aprons
Staff presented the pros and cons of ditches and "concrete edges/aprons" at the public information
meeting. It was very interesting for staff to learn that there is a natural dislike for a "barrier curb."
Barrier curb is the concrete vertical faced curb that you typically see in a large city, such as
Minneapolis. However, consideration would be given by residents for surmountable concrete edges
/aprons the edges of the roadway. Hence, the proposal was clarified to insure that edge control or
aprons were utilized versus a barrier style curb and gutter. Attachment 2 demonstrates the
surmountable edge control that is to be considered.
.
Simply put, the construction of a new roadway has to incorporate a ditch or an edge control with storm
sewer to facilitate drainage. Constructing a roadway without these items is a compromise that will
result in early deterioration of the roadway, and increased maintenance costs over the service life of the
roadway.
Of the comments received, residents prefer the surmountable concrete edge control versus ditches.

Roadway Sections
The minimum acceptable design width for a two way roadway is 24 feet of driving surface. Edge
control, shoulders, and ditches are to fall outside of this minimum width.
Wedl!ewood Drive: Staff presented two concepts for Wedgewood Drive at the public information
meeting. These alternatives were as follows:
1. Wedgewood Drive as a 26.0-foot width driving surface to provide a minimum width for parked
cars and pedestrian travel.
2. Wedgewood Drive as a minimum width of 24.0-foot width driving surface with parking
prohibited
Wedgewood Drive serves as the only entrance for Wedgewood Drive, Mallard Lane and Teal Circle.
As such, staff presented the alternatives above which included provisions for a wider roadway for
Wedge wood to accommodate pedestrian travel and parked cars.
Of the comments received, the majority of the comments prefer to have Wedgewood Drive constructed
as minimum width roadway and concrete edge control outside of the minimum surface requirements.
It is noted that the cul-de-sac diameter of Wedgewood Drive is to be reduced significantly to coincide
with current design standards.
Mallard Lane: Mallard Lane was proposed as a minimum width roadway of 24 feet in width driving
surface.
Of the comments received, the majority of the respondents prefer to have Mallard Lane constructed as
minimum width roadway and surmountable concrete edge control outside of the minimum surface
requirements.
Teal Circle: Teal Circle was proposed as a minimum width roadway of 24-foot driving surface.
Of the comments received, the majority of the respondents prefer to have Teal Circle constructed as
minimum width roadway and surmountable concrete edge control outside of the minimum surface
requirements.
It is noted that the overall length of Teal Circle roadway is to be reduced, with the cul-de-sac shifted
within the existing right of way.
Municipal Water Service
The current ordinance for municipal water service (paraphrased) requires that a minimum of 67 percent
of residents along the route of a petitioned project, shall submit a formal petition form with the City
Clerk for the City Council to consider such a project. A copy of the full ordinance has been included
as Attachment 3 to this memorandum.
.

Page 3 of 4
Formal petitions were provide at the public information meeting and mailed to each resident for
consideration of the installation of municipal water service. Table 1 below is a summary of the parcels
available for the service and the number of petitions received for each roadway.
Roadway Number of Petitions Received Percentage

Mallard Lane 6 0 0.0
Teal Circle 5 3 60.0
. Total 36 7 19.4
Table 1
.
.
.
Under the current ordinance, the petition for the installation of municipal water service fails.
I would be remiss at this point if it were not stated that the costs to be born by each property at a later
date for the installation of municipal water service would significantly greater, if installed after the
roadways have been reconstructed.
Drainage
One of the major concerns of the project is drainage. A vast majority of the properties along the
project area are impacted by drainage, or lack thereof. Staff will be working through the design
process to address as many of the drainage issues as practicable. A drainage survey will be sent to
each property owner as part of the design. Undoubtedly, there will be issues that the project can not,
nor should not, address as a public improvement. However, staff will perform the survey, and will
incorporate as many fixes into the design as feasible.
One of the major drainage features for the area is the drainage ditch located south of the Light
Regional Rail corridor, and east of Wedgewood Drive. Staff will work with property owners to try to
improve the characteristics of this drainage way, as part of this project.
Recommendations
Staff is recommending approval of a resolution, which directs WSB and Associates to prepare plans
specifications and engineer's estimate for the Wedgewood Drive, Mallard Lane and Teal Circle, based
upon the following design features.

Regarding: The installation of municipal water and the Wedgewood Drive,
Mallard Lane, and Teal Circle potential reconstruction.
Hi Larry,
.
Enclosed is a Request for Fee Variance I put together following our meeting on
June 9th. My intent was to make a rough estimate of the actual cost of connecting
residents while the road was tom up. I extrapolated numbers from the Timber
Lane project and created some ballpark estimates. I wanted to meet with you and
discuss them, but I assume you are busy.
.
I discussed the content of the request with three of our neighbors and they thought
it looked reasonable and would buy in. BeforeI can begin selling municipal
water to the other neighbors, we need a concrete cost figure. What is the next
step?
Thanks,
.

WEDGEWOODITEAL MUNICIPAL WATER
Aobjective: Demonstrate a utilitarian solution to providing municipal water service to residents on Wedgewood
~rive and Teal Circle at cost of the installation. The city and residents benefit from the installation of a water
main during the Wedgewood Drive, Mallard Lane, and Teal Circle road reconstruction project. We seek to
demonstrate a variance/exception is in order to reduce the set $10,000 hookup fee due to special circumstances,
the reconstruction of the resident's streets.
Assumptions
. The city of Shorewood does not include water hookups as a source of revenue.
. At least 67% of residents are in favor of a municipal water hookup at a reasonable cost.
Scope of Request (neighborhood)
Twenty four residents on Wedgewood Drive from Smithtown Road down to and including residents of Teal
Circle. The time frame for the request is only for the duration of the project proposal and is invalid after final
approval or rejection.
~dvantages
.. Residents gain access to municipal water as a reasonable cost.
. City roads do not need to be tom up twice; once for the road reconstruction project and once to install a
water main.
. The city completes additional municipal water hook-ups at minimal cost and disruption.
. Revenues for the city in the form of water usage fees increase.
. Increased property value for the residents.
. e Increased tax revenues for the city due to appreciated property values
Disadvantages
. Additional time for the road reconstruction project schedule.
. Increased property taxes for residents due to increased property values.
Risks
. City council may decide to assess residents for street reconstruction if this proposal is approved.
. . Delaying the road reconstruction project until springlswnmer 2006.

WEDGEWOOD/TEAL MUNICIP AL WATER
Resident Cost Estimate (Tom Hayes) .
Using data from the Timber lane water main project, we have constructed the following analysis and estimate
for the cost of connecting Wedgewood Drive residents down to and including Teal Circle residents to municipal
water service:
Timber Lane Pro. ect1
Linear feet of water main
Number of residents
1544
9
Total Cost
Cost er resident
$151,952
$16,884
Estimated Cost (percentagei
Dig up Road 30%
Replace Road 30%
Install water main 40%
Total Cost 100%
Estimated Timber Lane Cost without road work
40% * $151,952 = $60,781
.
Estimated Cost per foot
$60,781/1838 = $39.37 per linear water main foot
Wed ewood Drive/Teal Circle Estimated Cost
Linear feet of water main 1838 Total Cost
Number of residents 24 Cost er resident
Cost for water main = Linear feet of water main * cost per foot = 1838 * $39.37 = $72,354.35
Cost per resident = Total cost / number of residents = $72,354.35 /24 residents = $3,014.76
Street to Residence Hook-up
Suppose the City of Shorewood recommends a contractor to complete residential hook-ups and gains a
group rate for those residents wanting immediate municipal water connections. Suppose the average
rate for each curb to home connection is $2500.
.
Total cost per resident - $3,014 + $2500 = $5,514 or can be sold to residents as less then $6000 for their
municipal water connection.

Hi:
.nk you for the public information meeting of June 9 to explain the potential road project. After the meeting,we requested Larry
come and visit us to explain in greater detail the potential impact of this project on our property........he came out on June 24
a e greatly appreciated is time and input.
As a result of this, our feedback is as follows:
There are far too many "unknowns" at this point to be able to say we would support this project. Clearly a new road at no
assessment as outlined could be potentially appealing.....in such case we would prefer the curb and gutter over the ditch, but would
I the road kept as narrow as possible.......we would favor posted "no parking", but I'm pretty certain we would be of minority
on. However, we would NOT want the utility pole to move closer to our house, or have our treeline and lot impacted by the
ect........Mr. Brown was very gracious in his assessment of the potential impact of the project to our site, but could NOT offer an\
certainties that our property would not be encroached upon or that the utility pole might not move.........he felt pretty certain that the'
power lines would not be buried as part of this project. This is a significant issue for us, as we currently have a minimum size lot in
Shorewood and would not want to see this change.
As a subset, the issue of city water was discussed given that the road reconstruction would take place...........we would have
potential interest in city water, but again, need greater clarification on exact assessed costs in order to proceed.
.
Given current information, we would prefer to simply have the potholes filled.
We would appreciate if you would confirm reciept of our feedback.
Sincerely,
Greg & Lisa Sochko

Dear Larry Brown and City Council,
I apologize that my comments are coming after July 1 st. I hope they will still be considered at the July 11 Council Meeting. .
Concerning the roadway rehabilitation:
Alternative 2 with curbs looks and sounds like the best solution - but it also sounds more costly. What is the price of both solutions?
Is the difference worth it?
As for widening Wedgewood Drive, I'm afraid that might encourage more people to drive even faster than they already do on the
street. Would there be something else that could be done to slow people down? .
Concerning the installation of municipal water:
When city water was proposed before one of the city elections several years ago, we were told that the city water would NOT be
any better than the water that comes from our wells. We heard from some people that now its claimed that the city water would be
better. Which is true? I certainly don't want to spend $10,000 on water that isn't any better than we already have.
1 appreciate the efforts to improve our neighborhood but I have to be conscience of the cost, as a paycheck only goes so far.
Thank you very much,
Vicki Stromberg

Subject: Wedgewood Drive
To whom it may concern:
Regarding the proposals to reconstruct Wedgewood Drive.
I support the resurfacing of Wedgewood Drive and I would be interested in hooking up to city water services if it were to be
in. stalled at the time of resurfacing. However, I am not going to sign a petition that waives my right to object to the cost of su~
project. .
I am not in favor of widening the road, ditches, or edging. I believe Widening the road will embolden drivers to go faster than they
all ready do which is routinely above the speed limit.
The edging will further erode the sense of a semi-rural atmosphere that is quickly disappearing. I agree that specific areas of
Wedgewood Drive would be improved with a wider road and edging to channel drainage, but not all of Wedgewood Drive.
Thank you for soliciting input before deciding on a course of action. That effort is greatly appreciated.
Regards,

RE:
Approval of Supplemental Agreement 3 - County Road 19 Intersection Improvement
Project
S.A.P. 27-619-18; S.A.P. 216-020-02;
.
On the 22nd day of November, 2004, Eureka Construction Inc. was awarded the contract for the
reconstruction of the County Road 19 Intersection Improvement Project. Hennepin County, the City
of Shorewood, and the City of Tonka Bay have executed a cooperative agreement for this subject
project. The City of Shorewood is serving as the lead agency for administration of the contract.
.
Typically, municipalities administrate changes to a construction contract via means of change orders.
In contrast, Hennepin County and the Minnesota Department of Transportation State Aid Office have
modified the method for additions to a construction contract. A "Supplemental Agreement" is utilized
for every addition, versus a "Change Order."
To ease communication and the record keeping between agencies, the supplemental agreement system
will be utilized here.
Under this system, a change required to the contract is brought to the City of Shorewood, as the lead
agency. If the item requires an immediate decision, to avoid construction delay costs or is minor in
nature, Larry Brown will review the item with representatives of each affected agency, and provide
direction accordingly. As follow up, a supplemental agreement is initiated. Each agency must then
commence the approval process for the supplemental agreement.
.
As these agreements become more complicated, the timeline for approval for each agreement becomes
exponentially longer. Costs and impacts to construction are negotiated and reviewed for impacts to
timeline. Often times, the contractor has completed the work months prior to a supplemental
agreement being fully executed by each agency. As one can imagine, this often becomes a large
#.

financial cost to the contractor. Therefore, supplemental agreements are not necessarily processed in
order. As a supplemental agreement becomes available for approval, it is forwarded to each agency for
consideration. While processing these agreements out of sequence makes record keeping a challenge,
it is an effort to reduce the time to make payment to the contractor for work already completed.
Attached to this memorandum is Supplemental Agreement 3. This agreement addresses the following
issues:
. Changes to the Signal System
. Changes to the Electrical Lighting Service Cabinet
A summary of each item and a cost distribution for each agency is provided below.
Changes to the Signal System
This provision requires the contractor to revise the length and type of the mast arm of one of the signal
poles to avoid impacting a major Qwest fiber optic conduit that traverses the intersection. In addition,
the contractor is to directional bore signal conduits diagonally across the existing intersection, versus
conventional excavation.
The design documents adequately denote the location of a "high profile" Qwest fiber optic conduit
within close proximity to a foundation of one of the main signal poles.
Providing locations of utilities is more art than science. Locations that are often painted on the ground
are "a good approximation" of the location of a utility. Industry standards dictate that if a precise
utility location is required, that excavation be performed to expose the utility and verify its exact
location.
Excavation to verify this fiber optic duct had to wait until the staging of traffic permitted this to occur.
Once the precise location of the duct was completed, it was determined that the foundation of one of
the signal poles was to be shifted, to insure adequate safety clearances from the duct versus the
foundation of the signal pole. This is necessary, as excavation for the signal foundations is completed
by use of a large auger. With documented location of other major utilities in the area, it was
determined that the only remaining space for this signal foundation required that the mast arm of the
pole be extended ten feet.
In addition, Staff has reviewed the staging and traffic control plans and determined that installation of
a few of the major signal conduits that control the signal systems should be installed by means of
directional boring, versus conventional trenching. This alternative means of installation of these
conduits results in a very significant decrease in traffic delays and the necessary rerouting of traffic
during construction.
A summary of these items is provided in Table 1 below.

Changes to the Electrical Lighting Service Cabinet
The supplemental agreement, as drafted, is misleading as to the reason for the changes to the lighting
service cabinet. There are three large cabinets that are to be placed on the southeast quadrant of the
County Road 19 intersection. A signal control cabinet, a lighting cabinet, and a transformer for Xcel
Energy.
Staff has spent a considerable amount of time to locate these cabinets so that they meet the sight
distance requirements, meet each agency's requirements for maintenance and operations, and be
"aesthetically friendly" as any cabinet can be.
The intersection is not only the focal point of the project from a traffic and streetscape viewpoint, but
has developed over the years as a major intersection for just about every utility imaginable. Therefore,
trying to manage placement of the necessary service cabinets has become a sizeable task.
As the details for electrical distribution were reviewed, it was determined that the number of electrical
meters and boxes at the intersection was multiplying. Staff reviewed the cabinet locations and types
with each utility. It was determined that if the lighting cabinet for the street light system was increased
in size, that electrical meter sockets and equipment could be housed inside the lighting cabinet, versus
having additional utility boxes hanging off the side of the already growing number of cabinets. In turn,
this provided an opportunity to make the cabinets consistent is size and type.

RE:
Approval of Supplemental Agreement 4 - County Road 19 Intersection Improvement
Project
S.A.P. 27-619-18; S.A.P. 216-101-02
.
Attached to this memorandum is Supplemental Agreement 4 for the County Road 19 Intersection
Improvement Project. This agreement addresses the following issues:
.
. Televising of sanitary sewer service 5660 Manitou Road (CR 19) Dimensions in Floors store.
. Revisions to size and location of sanitary sewer service for 5660 Manitou Road (CR 19)
Dimensions in Floors store.
Televising of sanitary sewer service 5660 Manitou Road (CR 19) Dimensions in Floors store.
During installation of the underground utilities, property owners for Dimensions in Floors, located at
5660 Manitou Road complained of slow running drains and backups of their sanitary sewer service.
Initially, it was thought that the installation of the new underground facilities may have crushed the
service line for the subject property. Therefore, the contractor was directed by the City of Shorewood
to obtain the. services of Infratech to televise and pinpoint the location of the existing service and
document any damage to the pipe.
.
Infratech did televise the service and documented that the pipe had been damaged. However, it appears
that the pipe was damaged as part of the installation of a directionally bored watermain that was
installed as a City of Shorewood project in 1995. It is very likely that current construction activity
precipitated the total failure of the service pipe that was inevitable by the initial damage.

Revisions to size and location of Sanitary Sewer Service 5660 Manitou Road
Due to the vertical location of the various utilities within the right of way of Country Road 19, it was
determined that the proposed sanitary sewer service for the subject property had to be reduced in size
from a 6 inch diameter service to 4 inches. This reduction in diameter was necessary to make grade,
and clear existing utilities vertically.
Since this service line is installed by means of directional boring, the decrease in size is a cost savings
to the project. Costs for the directional bore was programmed originally as a cost to Hennepin County
since the relocation of the main was caused by the construction of the county roadway. In additon, the
sanitary sewer service crosses the county right of way.
Costs for this change are summarized below.

. Dear Mr. Allmar~,
Subject:
On November 30, 2004 at the direction of the City and Hennepin County, Eureka retained the
services of Infratech to locate and identify the location of an existing sanitary sewer service to the
Floor Shop on the West side ofCSAH 19. The location of this facility was in question and was
necessary to complete the design for this service.
.
Infratech's'findings were different from that anticipated in the City's design. In addition to the'
different profile on the existing line, it was discovered that a watermain previously installed under
a different contract had penetrated through the sanitary service line.
Our Summary of Cost is as follows:
