CITY OF SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MONDAY, JANUARY 24, 2005 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD COUNCIL CHAMBERS 5:30 P.M. MINUTES DR FT 1. CONVENE WORK SESSION MEETING Mayor Love called the meeting to order at 5:33 P.M. A. Roll Call Present: Mayor Love, Councilmembers Turgeon, Callies, and Wellens; Administrator Dawson; Associate Attorney Mayeron for Attorney Keane; Engineer Brown, Finance Director Burton, and Planning Director Nielsen . Absent: Councilmember Lizee B. Review Agenda Mayor Love reviewed the Agenda for the meeting. Administrator Dawson requested A Discussion of Alleged Cougar Sighting be placed as Item 2 on the Agenda for the evening. All other items would then follow after that insertion. Without objection from the Council, Mayor Love proceeded with the revised Agenda for the meeting. 2. A DISCUSSION OF ALLEGED COUGAR SIGHTING Administrator Dawson thanked Bryan Leuth of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and South Lake Minnetonka Police Department Chief Bryan Litsey for appearing as part of the discussion on the alleged sighting of a cougar by a resident. . Administrator Dawson explained there had been an alleged sighting of a cougar by a Shorewood resident in the city in mid-December. This resident had contacted the DNR and been advised that by the description of the eyes and head as described, the animal could have been a cougar. Since no further description or sighting of the animal was available, the City had referred the DNR to work with the SLMPD on the matter as these two agencies would be working together should any further sightings be reported. Administrator Dawson also noted the City of Plymouth had provided information about how to deal with such an issue within a municipality as a cougar had been sighted in that city approximately seven to eight years ago. Mayor Love stated he had spoken with the resident as well as three additional people regarding the sighting. He noted all accounts revolved around a single sighting of the alleged animal. Mr. Leuth explained this sighting had taken place in the vicinity of Silverwood Park near Old Market Road. He went on to explain alleged sightings were fairly common with most cases resulting in a sighting of another type of animal, such as a large house cat or dog. He also explained some cougar sightings were linked to domesticated cougars that were out for a foray. He stated he did not want to understate the potential risk of the situation; however, until there was substantiated evidence of such an animal, either through a photo of a track or the animal itself, there was nothing further the DNR could do if 02 Ii CITY OF SHOREWOOD WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES January 24, 2005 Page 2 of3 to take action in this matter. He also went on to explain should suchan animal exist, a threshold of public safety must be crossed. Injury to a person or livestock would be reason to take further action. While he explained several scenarios for tracking such an animal, he noted there would a great expense as well as issues of trespass if the animal were to be tracked with dogs. He also explained that, at this point in time, the DNR had no reason to believe the animal sighted was a cougar as there was no evidence to substantiate the description given by the resident. He suggested any additional sightings be handled by calling 911 so that a report could be generated of the activity, and then the DNR could be alerted as needed. Chief Litsey explained information regarding the sighting as well as information regarding cougars in general had been placed on the SLMPD web site with a link to the DNR website. Mayor Love questioned what action residents should take if encountering a wild animal such as a cougar. Mr. Leuth stated the action for dealing with a cougar would be the same as those to be taken in dealing with any large wild animal, such as a bear. He stated it was important to first attempt to back away slowly without turning and running as this could initiate a chase reaction by the animal. Then a person . should attempt to appear larger than normal, and to yell, or make any other noise so that the animal knew a person was near it. He noted wild animals, even cougars, were typically shy and given the chance to escape would be much more willing to leave the situation than become aggressive. In response to Mayor Love's question regarding reports of a cougar attacking a human, Mr. Leuth stated there had been no attacks on a human in Minnesota or surrounding states; however, there had been an attack several years ago on a human in California in a remote area. He also stated it was important to remember that the chances of a person being hit while traveling to the grocery store in the local area were greater than ever being attacked by a large animal in this area. He stated many times cases received a great deal of attention because of the uniqueness of a situation. Administrator Dawson stated there had been no additional reported sightings within the past six weeks. After a brief discussion by Council, consensus indicated information would be made available to residents via the City's newsletter, The Shore Report, as well as safety issues and tips about dealing with wild animals would be posted on the City's website. . On behalf of the Council, Mayor Love thanked Mr. Leuth and Chief Litsey for being present at this meeting to discuss this issue. 3. ANNUAL APPOINTMENTS Administrator Dawson explained each year Council made annual appointments to various liaison positions for Commissions and Boards within the City, as well as other represented city positions such as weed inspector. Council held a brief discussion regarding the positions and noted this matter would be placed on the Regular City Council Agenda for this evening for approval. 4. WATER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS - BOND ISSUE Engineer Brown provided historical information and made a visual presentation of several needed improvements to the City's water system. He provided a brief description and potential cost for each improvement and noted the 2005 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) included a substantial project list. He noted there were several facilities requiring substantial improvements, including reconstruction of the . . . CITY OF SHOREWOOD WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES January 24, 2005 Page 3 of3 Badger Well House, replacement of the well controls for the Arnesbury well, interconnection of the W oodhaven well, implementation of a radio read meter system, Arnesbury well house building repair and polyphosphate system, and inspection, cleaning, and painting of the interior and exterior of the Southeast Area Water Tower. Total project costs contemplated were estimated to be $1,471,500. After various questions of clarification by the Council, Finance Director Burton introduced Paul Donna of Northland Securities, noting Mr. Donna had been asked to review the process for Council of municipal bonding as it related to the financing of these improvements. Mr. Donna presented two scenarios for municipal bonding, noting modifications could be made should city revenues change over time. In response to Councilmember Turgeon's question, Finance Director Burton stated the City had been contemplating these improvements for several years as well as the necessary bond issue for such improvements, thus, based on budgeted numbers for 2005, the potential for bonding had been included in those rates. She also stated, as with any service, rates should be subject to review on an annual basis. Engineer Brown also stated there were a number of capital expenditures with regard to the water system that had not been included in this bond issue despite necessary implementation in the next few years. Council indicated support for the projects and bonding issues as outlined by Engineer Brown and Mr. Donna this evening. Further detailed information on these matters would be made available at a Regular City Council meeting in the future. 5. OTHER There were no other items presented this evening. 6.

MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR John Garfunkel, 5665 Grant Lorenz Road, stated his pleasure to speak before the new City Council this evening, as he represented thirteen past and present advisory Commissioners. He explained all parties involved had submitted a letter to Council requesting reconsideration of the ward system of representation as these residents were concerned it may not have been the right course of action for the City. He then read the letter into the record. He stated these residents believed the amount of public education and comment that took place prior to the Council's decision on this issue was inadequate. He also stated these residents requested the issue be place upon the 2005 Work Plan for the current Council as they believed a progressive, open government should not be afraid to question past decisions. He thanked the . Council for its time this evening. Mayor Love stated the letter presented was well written and held legitimate concerns. He stated while he supported the ward system currently in place, he agreed it was always important to review issues at any time. Mr. Garfunkel stated the concerned residents responsible for the letter wanted to be certain all issues of concern were put forward when considering the ward system, and they were also requesting an annual review of the ward system of representation into the future as well. He stated he thought it important to consider the fundamental need for the change, as well as the process itself. He further stated it was extremely important to allow the community at large to provide input on the issue. Mayor Love, without objection from Council, directed Staff to notify all thirteen residents of this item each time it would be placed on the Agenda for Council review and consideration. 5. . REPORTS AND PRESENTATIONS . A. Sump Pump Surcharge - Ron Johnson Administrator Dawson explained Mr. Ron Johnson, 5355 Shady Hills Circle, had requested a "First Amendment Petition for 'Sump Pump Penalty' Hearing." The payment was due January 31 of each year before surcharges would accrue, and Mr. Johnson had wished to address Council prior to that date. He also stated the surcharge in Mr. Johnson's current utility bill was not in the amount certified as delinquent in 2004. He also noted Staff had been enforcing the City's ordinance regarding sump pump surcharges, and in the past, the Council had been consistent in applying its ordinance when Mr. Johnson had appealed delinquent charges. Mr. Johnson stated he had requested to be placed on the Agenda for this meeting so that the "new" Council could review the situation regarding the sump pump "penalty". He stated he was not pursuing this issue for naught as each time he had gone through the process new legal suits had developed. He requested Council not take action this evening, but suggested that it discuss the matter in a future Executive Session. CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR MEETING MINUTES January 24, 2005 Page 3 of 7 He then shared his interpretations of his current sump pump surcharge situation for the Council, noting it was important for this Council to review a brief he had submitted previously regarding this matter. Specifically, he noted several communications regarding plans for construction near his property and his interpretations of those communications. Mayor Love stated he was unclear about how these interpretations impacted the surcharge issue. Mr. Johnson stated the information presented related to an uncompensated taking with water being directed to storm sewers and draining on his property. Mayor Love requested Mr. Johnson summarize his points related to this matter, and Council would discuss this issue at an Executive Session meeting in the future. Mr. Johnson stated drainage water was going to where excavation was taking place adjacent to his property. He questioned whether Council had visited the site as there had been a fence placed on the site without any notice. Mayor Love stated Mr. Johnson's comments would be made part of the record on this matter. . 6. PUBLIC HEARING There were no public hearings scheduled for this meeting. 7. PARKS A. Report on Park Commission Meeting Held January 11, 2005 Commissioner Westerlund reported on matters considered and actions taken at the January 11, 2005, Park Commission Meeting (as detailed in the minutes of that meeting). Councilmember Turgeon questioned the status of the wetland restoration project. Engineer Brown stated the project was completely dependent on grant funding, and to date, none had been received. He went on to explain Staff would continue to seek out grant opportunities and a report would be made at a later time. . Mayor Love suggested, since the area was a potential regional ponding area, further grant opportunities be explored with a regional ponding focus with the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District as well. Commissioner Westerlund stated she believed there would certainly be opportunities for partnering with the MCWD in this project. Engineer Brown stated the feasibility report for the project should be placed on the Park Commission Work Program for 2005. 8. PLANNING Commissioner Meyer reported there had not been a meeting of the Planning Commission since the most recent regular City Council meeting. A. Conditional Use Permit for Accessory Space in Excess of 1200 Square Feet Applicant: Tom and Tina Verburgt Location: 5310 Elm Ridge Circle CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR MEETING MINUTES January 24, 2005 Page 4 of7 Director Nielsen explained the history of the case, noting Sharratt Design, representing Tom and Tina Verburgt, was in the process of remodeling the home on the property located at 5310 Elmridge Circle. Part of the remodeling project included the addition of a new attached garage on the southeast comer of the house. The garage was designed with a storage area adjoining the garage that would technically be counted as part of the dwelling. Since the owner had decided to make this space part of the garage, and since the area of this space, added to the garage, exceeded 1200 square feet, the change required a conditional use permit pursuant to Section 1201.03 Subd. 2.d.(4) of the Shorewood Zoning Code. Director Nielsen went on to explain the property was zoned R-WS, Single-Family ResidentiallShoreland and contained approximately 57,350 square feet in area. The garage was angled to conform to the shape of the lot, currently contained 1200 square feet of area, and would be 1325 square feet of area with the proposed change. The proposed home contained 2208 square feet on the main level alone, with even more space on the second level. With regard to analysis of the case, Director Nielsen stated the request complied with all criteria for a conditional use permit. He noted the heavy vegetation on the site, thus, there was not a need for additional . landscaping. Council had no questions regarding this case. Callies moved, Wellens seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 05-006, "A Resolution Granting a Conditional Use Permit for Additional Accessory Space for Tom and Tina Verburgt, 5310 Elm Ridge Circle." Motion passed 4/0. 9. GENERAL/NEW BUSINESS A. Making Appointments to Certain Offices and Positions within the City of Shorewood for the Year 2005 Administrator Dawson explained each year Council made annual appointments to various liaison positions for Commissions and Boards within the City, as well as other represented city positions such as weed . inspector. He then read through the list of positions and Councilmembers willing to accept each appointment for the Year 2005. He further noted Council had agreed to remove a position for Liaison to the Friends of the Southshore Senior Community Center from the list of appointments as anyone was welcome to participate on this Board. Wellens moved, Turgeon seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 05-007, "A Resolution Making Appointments to Certain Offices and Positions within the City of Shorewood for the Year 2005, subject to the condition that Item M. on the appointment list be stricken from the resolution granting such appointments." Motion passed 4/0. B. Making MCES, LMCC, and LMCD Board Representative Appointments Administrator Dawson explained appointments of representatives to the Minnetonka Community Education Services (MCES) Board, the Lake Minnetonka Communications Commission (LMCC), and the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD) were typically done in January of each year. The City had advertised these volunteer board opportunities to residents, with the current representatives being the only residents to express an interest in serving as representatives for the City to these Boards. The current CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR MEETING MINUTES January 24,2005 Page 5 of7 representatives were Tad Shaw, 5580 Shore Road, for the MCES Board; Patrick Hodapp, 26195 Shorewood Oaks Drive for the LMCC; and Tom Skramstad, current chair of the LMCD residing at 28020 Woodside Road. He also noted the Minnetonka School District had reorganized Community Education and the MCES Board, with some shift in representation to the Advisory Board being requested. Each of the candidates had expressed an interest in continuing to serve on the respective Boards for the remainder of this year. Councilmember Turgeon questioned the term of the appointments for each candidate, as she had believed there was a specific requirement for either Councilmembers or Staff to participate on the MCES Advisory Board as outlined by Minnetonka School District Staff in a previous presentation to Council earlier in the year. Administrator Dawson stated he would check on this issue and report back at the next Regular City Council meeting. . Council indicated consensus for continuation of representation for a one year term for each candidate. Administrator Dawson clarified Patrick Hodapp would then be appointed to the LMCC for a one-year term, as would Tom Skramstad for a one-year term to the LMCD. Council agreed. Turgeon moved, Wellens seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 05-008, "A Resolution Making an Appointment to the Lake Minnetonka Communications Commission." Motion passed 4/0. Turgeon moved, Wellens seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 05-009, "A Resolution Making an Appointment to the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District." Motion passed 4/0. C. South Lake Minnetonka Police Department (SLMPD) Issues . Administrator Dawson explained the SLMPD Operating Committee, comprised of the member cities city administrators/managers had developed a process, supported by the SLMPD Coordinating Committee, that would bring together representatives from each city to attempt to bring resolution to the long outstanding SLMPD issues. He noted a facilitator would be hired to work through this process with local representatives, and a second portion of the process included a suggestion that the City of Excelsior put forth $42,500 to meet the funding requirements for the SLMPD Year 2005 Operating budget expenses. Administrator Dawson reported the City of Excelsior had met in a Work Session meeting and indicated support for the process but would not, however, put forth any additional monies for the year. Mayor Love stated he had, through a number of informal conversations with Mayor Ruehl of Excelsior, noted a sincere desire to bring all member cities together to work through resolution this year. He noted the Joint Powers Agreement (JP A) would be part of the discussions with all municipalities to consider either disillusionment options or how to improve relations to allow for only one level of service being funded and supported for the SLMPD. He stated he remained optimistic as he had seen all parties interested in resolution this year. Councilmember Wellens stated he believed this discussion to be worthwhile, and he thought all member cities should provide funding as specified in the JP A with one level of service being supported for the SLMPD.

DATE: February 10,2005 RE: Declaring the Adequacy of Petition for Public Improvement Project Engineering File 05-03 Mr. Michael Catain is the property owner of 45 50 EnchantedPoint, as shown in Attachment 1. Mr. Catain has submitted a petition for local improvement, in accordance with the Minnesota State Statute 429, requesting that the City perform an engineering analysis and construction project to relocate a dry hydrant that is located on the subject parcel via a utility easement. Attachment 2 is the subject petition. Mr. Catain desires that the hydrant be relocated outside of his property, and within the public right of way of Enchanted Point. . The City of Shorewooddoes not own or operate a municipal water system on Shady or Enchanted Islands. As such, homes are served by private wells. On February 28th, 1994, the City awarded contracts to construct three dry hydrant systems as a public improvement project that was assessed to the benefiting property owners of Shady and Enchanted Islands. Attachment 3 is Resolution 94-24, awarding the contract. Attachment 4 is a general site location map for each of the systems. The dry hydrant systems allow fire fighters to pump water from Lake Minnetonka. Quite simply, pipe was extended into Lake Minnetonka to a depth that would support a fire flow, and a fire hydrant was installed on the shore-side of the system. A fire truck simply hooks up the hose from the pump truck, to the dry hydrant, to draw lake-water to fight a fire. The City accepted this project on August 8, 1995. Each property owner on Shady and Enchanted Island was assessed for the improvement project. The hydrant located on the Catain property is by way ofa recorded utility easement (refer to Attachment 4). Mr. Catain is requesting that the hydrant be relocated offhis property, and to the public right of way of Enchanted Point. Staff has reviewed the petition and site with the City of Mound's Fire Chief, Greg Pedersen. ft ~J PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER #,3F Mayor and City Council Declaring Adequacy of Petition February 10,2005 Page 2 of2 "': Chief Pedersen and Staffboth agree that relocation of the dry hydrant to the public right of way serves the public's interest in that the hydrant will be more accessible, and will actually be located closer to a greater number of structures. This is of particular concern since this project was assessed. Staff will want to insure that relocation would not reduce the benefit to the surrounding property owners that the original installation was predicated on. While the proposed location of the hydrant is perceived as a benefit, the piping system that feeds the hydrant will have to be lengthened. A longer length of pipe can result in a decrease of the volume of flow. If significant, this would not serve the public's interest. Therefore, Mr. Catain has agreed to petition the City to perform an initial flow test and engineering analysis to determine if the relocated hydrant and resulting increase in pipe length will result in a significant decrease in flow for fire protection. The petition further requests that the City undertake the improvement (if found feasible) and assess all associated costs of the feasibility, construction and . project costs to the subject property. Said petitioner waives the right to appeal the assessment associated with this project. Mr. Catain's Attorney has voiced some concerns regarding the petition, in that it appears to provide the City free reign regarding the amount of the assessment to be levied. I have assured Mr. Catain's Attorney that the City will provide a proposal for feasibility, construction, and engineering along the way. Mr. Catain will have the right to stop the process at any time, and have the coststo that point paid or levied to the subject property. Recommendation Staff is recommending approval of the attached resolution that declares the adequacy of petition for relocation of a dry hydrant on 4550 Enchanted Point. .

Camp Coffee, located at 19215 State Highway 7, is changing ownership and the building will now be occupied by Cafe Lettieri's. Sign Maintenance Lighting and Electric has submitted plans and an application for new signagefor the new business. As shown on Exhibit A, attached, the existing pylon sign in front of the. site will be slightly larger than the one currently in place (61 square feet vs. 56 square feet). Alt.hough the illustration on Exhibit B shows additional future wall signage, this is nofproposed with this application. Presumably, the existing drive-thru sign and menu board that were previously approved will remain in place. , I Based on the size of the building (881 square-foot silhouette as viewed from Highway 7 and Vine Hill Road), the site is allowed a total of 88 square of signage. If the drive-thru and menu board remain in place, the new sign will bring the total amount of signage to 77 square feet. This complies with the Zoning Code and approval of the freestanding sign is recommended, subject to setback and height requirements. Since commercial properties are allowed only three signs, the owner should be aware that any future wall signs would necessitate the removal of one of the other signs on the property. This would be addressed as a separate sign permit. Cc: Craig Dawson Tim Keane Steve Lawrence Tino Lettieri n .

'.J PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER January 20, 2005 KLM ENGINEERING, INC. · P.O. Box 897. 3394 Lake Elmo Ave. N. · Lake Elmo, MN 55042 (651) 773-5111. Fax (651) 773-5222 Mr. Larry Brown P. E. Public Works Director City of Shorewood 5755 Country Club Road Shorewood,Minnesota 55331-8926 RE: Proposal for Engineering Review, Welding andCoating Inspection during the Antenna InstallationIU pgrades on your 400,000 gallon Elevated Water Tower located at 5500 Old Market Road Shorewood, MN. Dear Mr. Brown: . KLM is pleased to submit this proposal to perform lease agreement review, engineering review,.and welding and coating inspection during the antenna installation on the elevated water tower in Shorewood, Minnesota. Lease agreement review helps ensure that the owner's interests are protected, particularly during periods of maintenance and repainting. Engineering review assures that the proposed antenna and equipment attachments are structurally sound, and identify inconsistencies or omissions pertinent to construction and operation of the antenna facilities and maintenance of the tower. The review is intended to protect the interests of the tower's owner prior to construction, by identifying and eliminating elements of the proposed construction that are not in the owner's best interests. . Part time inspection by an A WS Certified Welding Inspector during structural modifications and a NACE Coating Inspector during surface preparation and coating application assures that the work performed by the contractor is in conformance with the specifications and will realize its intended operating life. KLM's inspector will monitor workmanship during all phases of construction and approve the contractor's work. The experience of KLM' s staff in water tower inspection has been enhanced by our training as National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) Certified Coatings Inspectors and American Welding Society (AWS) Certified Welding Inspectors. This training, plus the years of experience in abrasive blasting (surface preparation) painting, rigging, welding, and inspecting, has given this company a competitive edge for performing this type of work in a safe and professional manner. City of Shorewood, :MN 2 . Em!:ineerin2 Mana2ement KLM will perform an engineering review of the plans and specifications to determine structural soundness of the proposed antenna attachments. Our experience in construction and reconditioning inspection as well as in the design of water towers has greatly enhanced our ability to recognize and correct unsatisfactory design principles. KLM will send to the city our comments of the reviewed specifications and drawings. At a minimum, the engineering review will include the following: . Review of the proposed lease agreement . Review of tower for ability to withstand any additional loadings from antennas . Review of proposed antenna attachments for structural adequacy . Review of proposed penetrations through tank and/ottower walls for structural soundness . Review of proposed surface preparation and coating . Review for hazards andphysicalinterference/obstruction problems . Inconsistencies and/or omissions in construction drawings pertinent to project . Installation Inspection The inspector assigned to this project will be a NACE Trained Coating Inspector atld/or A WS Certified Welding Inspector. All of our inspectors have extensive practical experience and knowledge of water storage tank reconditioning and antenna installations. They are experienced sandblasters, painters, climbers, riggers, coating inspectors, welders and welding inspectors, which allows the inspector to perform inspections alongside the contractor to ensure conformance to the project specification. At a minimum, the field inspections will include the following: . Monitoring and approval of the structural modifications for conformance to the plans and specifications . Inspection of welds . Inspection ofthe abrasive blasting media and equipment for conformance to the specifications and to prevent contamination of surfaces during surface preparation with moisture and oil or other contaminants . Monitoring the contractors mixing and application ofthe coatings for conformance to the specifications, and the coating manufacturer's recommendations . Approving surface preparation . Monitor punch list items and subsequent corrective action by the contractor . Final inspection, substantial completion, and project acceptance City of Shorewood, :MN 3 Ene;ineerine; Review Fees From past experience, it is anticipated that at least two or three reviews will be required before the proposed construction modifications shown on the plans are acceptable. The engineering review will be performed in accordance to this proposal and our current Fee Schedule on a Time and Materials Basis. Review costs typically range from $1,200 to $1,600, but are dependent on the number of reviews required until an acceptable plan is submitted. Fees for engineering review will be billed upon completion of the review. Inspection Fees The following fees are based on KLM performing inspections three (3) separate times; once for inspection of welding, once for inspection of abrasive blasting and priming, and once for final coating inspection and site restoration. However, more or fewer inspections may be required in this case. The inspections will be performed in accordance to this proposal and our current Fee Schedule on a Time and Materials Basis. For new installations this can range from $1,000 to over $5,000. . Increases in scope of work, additi~nal reviews or inspections (such as inspection of shop blasted and painted items) required or due to re-inspection of rejected work or materials, or other additional inspections requested by the Owner and/or Contractor may result in fees in excess of this estimate. Owner Requirements KLM requests that the owner provide approved drawings, specifications, schedule, materials, welder's certifications, and a contact list. Fees for inspection services will be billed following the final or punch list inspection. . Terms and Conditions KLM has attached our standard Terms and Conditions. The attached Terms and Conditions are part ofthis agreement between the City of Shorewood and KLM Engineering, Inc. unless otherwise agreed to in writing by both parties. References KLM would encourage City of Shorewood to call any or all of the references provided. City of Shorewood, MN 4 Time Frame This proposal is valid for sixty (60) days. If the City of Shorewood finds this proposal acceptable, please sign and return. When KLM receives the signed proposal, the city can send KLM specifications and drawings to review. KLM will need to be notified by the Owner or contractor a minimum of two days beforehand to schedule inspection times.

FROM: Brad Nielsen DATE: 10 February 2005 RE: Proposed Fee Updates - Land Use Regulations FILE NO. 405 (Admin) A number of the fees associated with planning, zoning and building have not been updated for quite some time. Ordinarily, a new fee schedule for all of the various City fees is adopted at the first of the year. Any fees associated with land use regulations require a public hearing, which has been scheduled for next Monday night. . The City's fee schedule attempts to recover expenses associated with various types of applications. Staffhas analyzed the following fees based upon staff time associated with review and processing, out of pocket expenses (e.g. copying, mailing, publishing), and follow-up (e.g. map changes, preparation of resolutions and publishing of amendments). We also took into consideration what other cities of similar size and situation charge for various applications. Based on these considerations the following fees are proposed: Annlication Existin~ Fee/Escrow Pro nosed Fee/Escrow Conditional Use Permit (res) $200 same Conditional Use Permit (non-res) $300/100 $400/100 Conditional Use Permit (comm fac) $1000/1000 same Variances and Appeals (reS) $150/150 $250/150 Variances and Appeals (non-res) $200/150 $300/150 Planned Unit Development (concept) $300/100 same Planned Unit Development (devel) $300/100 same Planned Unit Development (final) $300/100 same Subdivision - minor $250/1 00 $350/100 n '-~ PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER :# 0.

DATE: February 10,2005 RE: Approval of Monument Sign - Freeman Park Plaza Mr. Ken Dallman of theShorewood Parks Foundation appeared before the February 8th, 2005, Park Commission meeting, to request approval of a memorial sign for the Freeman Park Plaza. Attachment 1 is the site plan for the plaza. Attachment 2 is the proposed wording of the monument sIgn. Mr. Dallman described the plaque as a 12" x 18" plaque that will be permanently fastened to a large rock. It is anticipated that the rock will be approximately 24-36 inches in height. . Staff mentioned that weight restrictions will be enforced, starting March 1, 2005 through April 30, 2005. The rock described may weigh upwards of 1,000 pounds. Since permits for weight restrictions are not granted, the contractor will have to either locate the boulder prior to March 1 S\ or provide transportation that will meet the restricted requirements. .The Park Commission recommended approval of the monument sign, as presented. n tJ PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER jt-. 17 8 '...--.

DATE: February 10, 2005 SUBJECT: Appointment to MCES Advisory Council This item has been continued from the January 24 Council meeting. Under the Minnetonka School District's new structure for Community Education, each of the ten cities served by the District has one position on the Advisory Council for Minnetonka Community Education and Services (MCES). The Council requested clarification about who would qualify for the "City" position. I spoke with Tim Litfin, Executive Director for MCES, and he confirmed what had been presented to Council on January 24. While the District has a preference for a Councilor professional staff member, an active, interested resident also qualifies. . Tad Shaw, 5580 Shore Road, the City's long-time representative to the former MCES Advisory Board, has expressed a willingness to continue his service on the new Advisory Council.

Dawson, City Administrator UD February 10,2005 Revised Proposal for Process To Address SLMPD Issues . Council will recall that in late November the SLMPD Coordinating Committee put forth a two-part proposal to work through member cities' issues regarding the SLMPD. 1) A facilitated process proposed by the Operating Committee (comprised of the city manger/city administrators of the member cities); and 2) A "baseline" 2005 payment of $416,400 from Excelsior, plus a $26,159 supplemental payment in 2005 from Excelsior, so that 'all member cities would be provide the same Tier II service (which had been proposed earlier by Excelsior). The Shorewood City Council approved this proposal at its December 13,2004, meeting. . In its actions during January, the Excelsior City Council indicated that it would approve (1) the facilitated process, but not do (2) any payment above $400,000 for 2005. At its special meeting on January 28, the Coordinating Committee believed that it was important to begin the facilitated process, and believed it appropriate for Excelsior to receive Tier I service if it chose to do so. On February 2, the Coordinating Committee authorized execution of a letter to engage the services of a facilitator for the process, provided that all cities give any necessary final approvals. As the city councils of Greenwood, Shorewood, and Tonka Bay had endorsed the two-part proposal-which included the equal-share expenditures for facilitation services-it has been deemed necessary that the city councils affirm what is now a single-component proposal. The Operating Committee's estimate of expense is $10,000 - $11,000. As of this writing, all cities except Shorewood have done so. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Council authorize proceeding with the facilitated process to address the member cities' issues regarding the South Lake Minnetonka Police Department. n ~~ PRINTEO ON RECYCLEO PAPER ;ffqB CITY OF SHOREWOOD 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD · SHOREWOOD, MINNESOTA 55331-8927 · (952) 474-3236 FAX (952) 474-0128' www.cLshorewood.mn,us'cityhall@cLshorew:)Qd.mn.us MEMORANDUM DATE: February 14, 2005 TO: Mayor and Council Members Craig W.

In the Ackerson's purchasing the lot, they confirmed that the property had access to city sewer, and in our customary work, we confirmed the location with the city engineering dept., and ordered the work to be performed by Widmer Construction. After digging to the street, Widmer was unable to locate the service anywhere near the location indicated by the city staff. After further consultation with the city staff, we were given permission and instruction to: 1) dig into the street, where the service was eventually found; 2) repair the street surface; 3) pay the contractor; and 4) the owner would be able to submit an invoice to the city for reimbursement of the additional cost incurred. Attached hereto is a copy of the invoice from Widmer Construction. On behalf of the owners, we hereby request the City of Shorewood to reimburse the owners in the amount of $3,956.75. If a different form of request for payment is required, please notify me of the process immediately. I understand that staff may not have been authorized to represent that the city would reimburse us for the expenditure, and made the statement in good faith. It is with the same good faith that we ordered the work, and the same good faith I have in the council, if necessary, to do the right thing and authorize the expenditure. The cost to correct inadequate work, not the fault of any party currently involved, should not be born by the Ackerson's because: 1) they have paid the city for the sewer access; 2) doing so would deprive them of a benefit implicit with the payment of assessments; 3) the work was performed in an efficient and economical manner; and 4) it's the right and equitable thing to do.

MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council Craig Dawson, City Administrator FROM: Larry Brown, Director of Public Works . DATE: February 13, 2005 RE: Appeal of for Compensation for Sanitary Sewer Connection Costs - 5950 Charleston Circle. Attachment 1 is a written appeal, to have the City of Shorewood participate in construction costs for connection to the City's municipal sanitary sewer system for 5950 Charleston Circle. Attachment 2 is . a supporting invoice for the appeal. This written appeal was received just prior to publication of the City Council packet. As such, there was not adequate time to put together a written report for the City Council, prior to distribution of the packet. Therefore, this is being supplied to the City Council under a separate cover. Background . The City of Shorewood, during the late 1986 and 1987 timeframe processed the preliminary and final plat for what is known as "WCL Acres." This plat includes seven lots, as shown in Attachment 3. The subject lot is denoted at Lot 2 of Block 1, on the referenced attachment. Municipal sanitary sewer service was installed, as part of the plat, along with sanitary sewer services. Services extend from the sewer main in the center of the road surface, to what is shown to be the edge of the public right of way. This is consistent with current design standards. William Englehardt and Associates, Inc. is the design engineer on record for the project. During the construction of such systems, measurements are taken, as to the location and depth of the sanitary sewer stubs at the property line, and at the centerline, before they are back-filled. This allows contractors making the final connection from the service to the home, to locate the stub provided to make the connection. . The engineer of record is responsible for showing these measurements (referred to as "service ties") on the "asbuilt" drawings. These are provided to the City by the design engineer and become part of the permanent utility records on file at the City. . . . . . Mayor and City Council Appeal for Compensation 5950 Charleston Circle February 13, 2005 Page 2 of3 Staff reviewed the plat file, and also found that sanitary sewer charges for all seven lots were paid on September 14, 1987. Lot 2 was never built upon, until 2004. Water Street Homes, obtained a permit for construction in 2004, and managed the construction project for Lot 2, Block 1. A single family home has been constructed on the property. During the construction process, the contractor requested a permit for connection to the sanitary sewer service stub on record. Staff provided the service tie information to the contractor and granted a permit to excavate within the public right of way, to make the connection. On October 6,2004, the builder's plumber, Widmere Construction, attempted to locate the sanitary sewer stub, based upon the measurements provided by the asbuilt drawings. However, the service was not successfully located. Successive attempts were made on October 7, and 28th. On October 28th, the sanitary sewer stub was located, not at the right of way line shown, but more towards the center of the street. This necessitated excavation and restoration of a portion of the roadway. Sanitary Sewer Ordinance Section 904.08 BUILDING SEWERS AND CONNECTIONS; Sub. 4., Sub i. Connections to public sewer states (1) The connection of the building sewer into the public sewer shall be made at the "Y" branch, if the branch is available, at a suitable location. If the public sewer is J 2 inches in diameter or less and no properly located "Y" branch is available, the owner shall, at his or her expense, install a "Y" branch in the public sewer at the location and manner specified by the Sewer Inspector. Where the public sewer is greater than J 2 inches in diameter and no properly located "Y" branch is available, a neat hole may be cut into the public sewer to receive the building sewer with entry in the downstream directions at an angle of about 45 degrees. Per this ordinance, the property owner is responsible for the service stub to the sewer main in the center of the roadway. Having stated this, Staff misrepresented the code at the time of the permit. Staff was operating under the premise, at the time of the permit that the sanitary sewer and municipal water utility ordinances were in unison with each other. Under the water ordinance, a property owner can receive credit for installation ofthat portion of the service stub within the pubic right of way. It was only until such time, as Staff was to present a copy of the sanitary sewer ordinance to Water Street Homes, that it was discovered that the ordinances for sanitary sewer service do not provide credit for provisions for work within the public right of way. Staff has determined that there are two such instances, where the code was misinterpreted. . Mayor and City Council Appeal for Compensation 5950 Charleston Circle February 13, 2005 Page 3 of3 Analysis The appeal received can be broken down into two main points. 1. The sanitary sewer stub, provided on the record drawing, was not in the exact location, as provided by the engineer of record to the City. Therefore, the builder has incurred additional expense in locating the sanitary sewer stub along with the necessary restoration to the roadway. . 2. Staff misrepresented the ordinances for the sanitary sewer services at the time of the permit. Staff has reviewed the information provided, and offers the following observations. . The City is provided the service tie locations by the engineer of record. While the City provides oversight inspection services, and in fact attempts to verify tie information provided, the engineer of record is responsible for the accuracy of such service tie information. Therefore, Staff does not believe the City can be found negligent for the error of the information shown on the asbuilt drawings. . With regard to the misinterpretation of the ordinances: This was clearly a mistake, in misrepresentation of the sanitary sewer ordinances. For that we apologize. . Having stated this; if Staff had of provided the correct information regarding zero credit being offered for work being completed within the public right of way, the result would have remained the same. The builder would have still had to have their contractor locate the stub and make the connection, for the new home to be served. While it was an honest mistake that was made, it has no bearing on the work that would have had to be performed. Therefore, Staff has declined the request by Mr. Rick Carlson, of Water Street Homes for compensation by the City of Shorewood, in the amount of $3,956.75 for the extra costs incurred. Mr. Carlson has asked that this decision be appealed to the City Council. . . . . . .

DATE: February 10, 2005 RE: Recommendations for Traffic Changes to Radisson Road On December 2,2004, the City of Shorewood, hosted an open house/public information meeting regarding safety and traffic concerns that have been brought to the City Councils attention, by way of a petition from several residents along the roadway. This meeting was well attended by many of the residents of the area. . Mr. Chuck Rickart, of WSB and Associates, presented four alternatives to assist the City and the neighborhood in evaluating what changes may be feasible from a cost and engineering viewpoint. Many comments were received during the meeting. Similarly, Staff invited residents to continue to submit written comments or e-mails to be incorporated into the study. Comments have been incorporated, with the bound report being included in the City Council packet. Staffhas excerpted the final conclusion of the report as follows: Based on the TrafficAnalysis, Alternative Analysis and public input, the following conclusions can be made: r-- . The primary issues related to the Radisson Road project are the safety of the roadway and cut-through traffic on the roadway. . The Traffic Analysis indicated that, although the traffic volume during the AM and PM peak hours is quite low (106 vehicles inthe AM and 119 in the PM). There is a cut- through issue ranging from 30% in the AM peak hour to 68~ in the PM peak hOUl:, . Four alternatives were analyzed as part of the study. The public consensus on each alternative is listed below: ,. tJ PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER -# I 013 Mayor and City Council Radisson Road Traffic Changes February 10, 2005 Page 2 of2 1. Alternative 1 - ReconstructionlWiden Street - Not a good option. 2. Alternative 2 - Signing and Striping Improvements - May help. 3. Alternative 3 - Close Street Access - Good alternative, but may have additional impacts to other neighborhoods. 4. Alternative 4 - One-Way Street - Good alternative. Base on the above conclusions the following recommendation is offered: 1. On a trial basis create an eastbound, one-way between Merry Lane and Radisson Road entrance. This trial should be conducted over a minimum nine-month period from April to December. This will incorporate both school traffic, recreational traffic and the wint. conditions along Radisson Road. 2. During the trial, monitor pedestrian traffic to determine impacts and potential solutions. 3. Improve the signing along Radisson Road, specifically at horizontal and/or vertical curves that do not meet typical design speeds (25 M.P.R.). 4. Conduct a second public meeting in late June to discuss the outcome of the trial and signing improvements. Mr. Chuck Rickart, ofWSB and Associates, will be at Monday night's City Council meeting to present the report. Notices were sent out informing residents of the agenda item, and were notified that the entire report is available on the City's web page for their review. Staff is in agreement with Mr. Rickart's recommendation for a one -way designation of Radisson Roa. on a 9-month trial basis.

INTRODUCTION I BACKGROUND The Shorewood City Council has identified a concern with the safety and operation of traffic on Radisson Road between Christmas Lake Road and Old Market Road on the north side of Christmas Lake. Figure 1 shows the project location. Several residents along the corridor have raised specific concerns relating to the roadway. These concerns include the following: . Cut-through traffic on the road has continued to increase over the past several years. It appears that this cut-through traffic is primarily students from the high school using Radisson Road as a shortcut to avoid the signals on TH 7. . The roadway is very narrow, with many substandard curves and poor alignment. There are several locations along the roadway where retaining walls are continually being hit. Based on these primary concerns/issues, the City Council directed WSB & Associates, Inc. to prepare a study to evaluate the safety and operation of Radisson Road between Christmas Lake Road and Old Market Road. Contained in this report is a traffic analysis of the cut-through traffic on the roadway, development and analysis of alternatives for improvement to the operation and safety, and conclusions and recommendations for possible improvements. ~i- F: \ WPWIM1585-00\SafetyandOperationStudy.doc Page 1 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I II. TRAFFIC ANALYSIS To address the concerns about the number of vehicles using Radisson Road instead ofTH 7 to make through trips between Christmas Lake Road and Old Market Road and/or Vine Hill road, a survey was conducted to document the traffic volumes and pass through trips during the AM and PM peak periods. This was accomplished by performing a vehicle license plate survey at the intersections of Radisson Road with Christmas Lake Road and Covington Road on Thursday, February 12, 2004. The morning survey was conducted between 6:00 and 10:00 AM; the evening was surveyed between 2:30 and 6:30 PM. Analysis Tabulation Table 1 documents the information gathered for analysis during the survey. The table is divided into three parts under three major headings: . The west recording station located at Christmas Lake Road . The east station at the intersection of Covington Road and the TH 7 south frontage road . Vehicle match Each of the two station headings is broken down into several data columns. The first column is a number that identifies each vehicle passing through the station using consecutive numbers for the survey. The second column under the east station (Covington Road) indicates theID numbers of the vehicles that match those that were recorded at the west station (Christmas Lake Road). A similar column is not included under the west station. A vehicle license number was entered in the next column for both stations. Note that these numbers do not have a uniform format as truck and bus license numbers as well as vanity plates, conservation plates, licenses from other states, etc., use a variety of formats that may differ from Minnesota's common three letters and three numerals (or vice versa). Those plate numbers that were recorded at both stations (presumably through trips) have been shaded as follows: Eastbound vehicles originating at the west station _ Westbound vehicles originating at the east station An eastbound or westbound direction for each vehicle passing through the stations was entered in the next column and the time of day in the next. The east station includes two columns indicating by an "X" whether eastbound vehicles passing through the station continued on Covington Road or the TH 7 frontage road, or which of those two roads was the origin for westbound vehicles. Shading as indicated above has been used to highlight the through trips in those two columns. Time of day for each vehicle passing through is indicated in the next column for each station. An "X" in one or the other of the next two columns indicates AM or PM. F: \ WPWIMI 585-00ISafetyandOperationStudy.doc Page 2 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Comments, either provided by the station observers or those potentially pertinent to the analysis, are noted in the "Remarks" columns for both the east and west stations. An "X" has been placed in one of the three "Match" columns for each vehicle recorded at both stations (through trips) as follows. The "X" entries are red or green corresponding to the direction of the trip as indicated by the shadings on the previous page. . The "Possible" match column indicates that even though a match was found, either the elapsed time was sufficiently long enough to presume that a stop was made somewhere in the neighborhood before passing through the second station; or the license numbers, though indicating the possibility of actually being the same, had too many differences to give much certainty to a match. (It should be noted that when several closely spaced vehicles are approaching a station, the observer has very little time to read and record each license number. Furthermore, dirty plates are a common problem, particularly at this time of year. There is no opportunity to check what was recorded and accuracy can be com-promised at times. This is further discussed in the discussion of the next column.) Where a possibility of a match has been determined to be particularly remote - even though it has been recorded, a question mark rather than an "X" has been placed in this column. In one case in this survey, the elapsed time between stations was 96 minutes. (Through trips generally took two to four minutes.) It can be assumed that legitimate stops were made within the area for those through trips with long durations. . The "Likely" column indicates those matches that are quite probable although there is some discrepancy in the plate number recorded at each station, e.g., it is possible that a transposition has occurred in one ofthe numbers or, in the case of one observer reading out loud while another records, a misunderstanding occurs such as the letter "A" being heard as the number "8." Office misreading of hurriedly written observation recordings can also occur. . The "Exact" column was checked when there were exact matches between plates observed at both the east and west stations and no time discrepancies were noted. Summary The following points are summarized from the tabulation: . Total AM observations (both directions): o 75 at west station o 106 at east station . Total PM observations: o 105 at west station o 119 at east station F: \ WPWIN\1585-00ISafetyandOperationStudy.doc Page 3 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I .

Total AM WB trips from East Station: 29; Total AM WB through trips: 10 - 34% . Total AM WB trips through West Station: 33; Total AM WB through trips: 10 - 30% . Total PM WB trips from East Station: 74; Total PM WB through trips: 34 - 46% . Total PM WB trips through West Station: 50; Total PM WB through trips: 34 - 68% Conclusions The analysis indicates that there are a relatively large number of through trips on Radisson Road, ranging from 29% to 68%. The latter is associated with the number of westbound through trips at Christmas Lake Road in the PM peak. The largest number of through trips in one direction is 34 westbound trips in the PM peak. Overall, a total of 88 through trips were observed over both peaks out of a total volume of 180 trips passing the westerly station and 225 passing the easterly station. These numbers could be considered higher than what might be expected for traffic using lower level streets to bypass major arterials. The through trips in both directions were somewhat evenly divided between those arriving or departing the split at the Covington Road/TH 7 south frontage road. This finding would tend to lessen the presumption that most of through traffic is related to Minnetonka High School. It could also be said that there is some legitimacy associated with the Covington Road through trips as the use of Radisson Road reduces the distance from TH 7 to the Covington Road intersection with Vine Hill Road.

ALTERNATIVES A. Development Alternatives were developed for each specific issue identified in the introduction. The alternatives which have been developed address the cut-through traffic and safety issues related to the roadway. Each alternative is discussed below: Safety Alternatives 1. Reconstruction/Widen Street: This alternative provides for the realignment/reconstruction of the roadway from approximately 1,000 feet east of Christmas Lake Road to Covington Road. Figure 2 shows the proposed alternative. The reconstruction/realignment of Radisson Road would include improving the roadway to a low speed urban design. The design speed would be 20 mph for both horizontal and vertical curves. The roadway width would be 25 feet from face-of-curb to face-of-curb. Several retaining walls would be required along the alignment in order to meet design standards. In addition, a storm sewer system and water quality pond would be required. 2. Signing and Striping Improvements: This alternative involves additional signing and striping on the existing roadway maintains the existing geometrics. Figure 3 shows this proposed alternative. Currently, no roadway striping exists from approximately 1,000 feet east of Christmas Lake Road to Covington Road. It would be proposed that a center yellow skip stripe be provided to help delineate the roadway lanes. Several of the existing curves do not have adequate signing. Curve signs would be installed with a 15 mph advisory speed limit. In addition, a "No Through Traffic" sign should be installed at either end of the roadway to help discourage the cut through traffic. Cut-throul!h Traffic Alternatives 3. Close Street Access: This alternative would close the roadway to through traffic at Covington Road from Old Market Road via Broms Boulevard. Figure 4 shows this proposed alternative. One of the primary concerns with the cut through traffic was the traffic from the high school cutting through the area. This alternative would help discourage cut-through traffic by disconnecting the through connection from Old Market Road to Covington RoadlRadisson Road via Broms Boulevard. Traffic would then need to use Old Market Road one-half mile south to the intersection of Covington Road to access Radisson Road. 4. One-Way Street: This alternative would create an eastbound one-way street for traffic on Radisson Road from Merry Lane to Radisson entrance. Figure 5 shows this proposed alternative. F: \ WPWIM1585-00\SafetyandOperationStudy.doc Page 12 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Based on the traffic analysis, a significant westbound cut-through traffic movement was identified. This alternative would create an eastbound one-way between Merry Lane and Radisson entrance. Additional signing would be needed to identify and alert motorists that this is no longer a through street for westbound traffic. In addition, traffic would improve on this segment of roadway as a result of eliminating the westbound movement and providing extra pavement width for eastbound traffic. B. Alternative Costs The anticipated construction costs for each alternative are shown in Table 2 below. These costs do not include right-of-way acquisition if required.

Alternative Analysis Each of the above alternatives was analyzed, and the advantages and disadvantages for each were developed and discussed below: Alternative 1 - Reconstruct/Widen Street Advantages .

PUBLIC INPUT I COMMENTS A Public Information Open House was held on Thursday, December 3,2004, from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. The purpose of the open house was to receive input from the public on the draft safety and operation study for Radisson Road. There were approximately 30 people in attendance at the meeting. The format of the meeting included an open house/general discussion with the alternative maps available for people to look at and gather information. A short presentation with questions and answers followed the general open house. There were several good comments and suggestions from the people in attendance at the public meeting. The summary of the comment cards received and the sign-up sheet is included in the Appendix. The summary includes comment cards received at the meeting and others received following the meeting. Comments from the public included: . Do nothing. Improvement attracts traffic. . Install speed bumps along Radisson Road. . Concurrence with the one-way street (Alternative 4) and street closing (Alternative 3) options. . Concurrence that widening ofthe road was not feasible. . Addition of pedestrian accommodations. . Conducting a trial to see if the one-way or street closure would work. In addition, comments were received in a memo for Mr. Dennis Jabs dated December 1,2004. This memo is included in the Appendix. He prefers Alternative 3, closing the street access. F: \ WPWIM1585-00ISafetyandOperationStudy.doc Page 15 I I I I I I I I I I ,I I I I I I I I I, V. CONCLUSIONS I RECOMMENDATIONS Based on the Traffic Analysis, Alternative Analysis and public input, the following conclusions can be made: . The primary issues related to the Radisson Road proj ect are the safety of the roadway and cut-through traffic on the roadway. . The Traffic Analysis indicated that, although the traffic volume during the AM and PM peak hours is quite low (106 vehicles in the AM and 119 in the PM). There is a cut-through issue ranging from 30% in the AM peak hour to 68% in the PM peak hour. . Four alternatives were analyzed as part of the study. The public consensus on each alternative is listed below: 1. Alternative 1 - Reconstruction/Widen Street - Not a good option. 2. Alternative 2 - Signing and Striping Improvements - May help. 3. Alternative 3 - Close Street Access - Good alternative, but may have additional impacts to other neighborhoods. 4. Alternative 4 - One-Way Street - Good alternative. Base on the above conclusions the following recommendation is offered: 1. On a trial basis create an eastbound, one-way between Merry Lane and Radisson Road entrance. This trial should be conducted over a minimum nine-month period from April to December. This will incorporate both school traffic, recreational traffic and the winter conditions along Radisson Road. 2. During the trial, monitor pedestrian traffic to determine impacts and potential solutions. 3. Improve the signing along Radisson Road, specifically at horizontal and/or vertical curves that do not meet typical design speeds (25 M.P.H.). 4. Conduct a second public meeting in late June to discuss the outcome of the trial and signing improvements. F: \ WPWIM1585-00ISafetyandOperationStudy.doc Page 16 e- .... Q.

Option #3, closing street access, appears to be best solution if it reduces cut-through traffic. Suggest temporary barricade to close street and then re-assess effectiveness before choosing as permanent solution. Temporary barricade is inexpensive and may also be long-term solution (just like barricades at the Mpls.-St. Paul airport). One-way option compromises school bus routes and would be problematic with school district. I like the idea of trying Radisson as a one-way. It may not cut out the cut-throughs both ways, but it would one way. Also, it would make traveling the road generally safer by automatically widening for traffic. Alternative 4 will inconvenience me, but it is the best option. It will mean that getting to Excelsior will be more difficult. A walking path, especially by Petersons & Jabs, would be wonderful. I do not like the idea ofa one-way street going east. You still have eastbound traffic going through and I am not sure it will improve safety that much. I feel the safety issue is a bit overblown. Everyone slows at Peterson's comer because it is so narrow. There is no way to make any road accident-free or guarantee no risk. I would rather see the closed street access alternative than the one-way road. If the one-way option is chosen, I would prefer westbound. A. Speed bumps would maybe help. 1) Slow them down. 2) Discourage drivers not living on road from using it as a "cut through" short cut away from Highway 7. B. I don't mind the so-called "crappy road." I'm not in a hurry to "tear through" my own neighborhood. C. The dumbest thing would be to make it one-way, either way! D. My final suggestion is to leave it alone, put up some signs "No Through Traffic" and enforce it. E. Close the connection to Radisson Road. F. Unless we get tort reform, you can be sued for a blind curve ... unless you have signage? We strongly feel that the road should carry the historical name of Radisson Inn Road, which has always been its name. A couple of years ago, I researched the early days of Christmas Lake, the history of the Radisson Inn, which was a special destination for people, and other historical facts about the lake, its early yachting club, the 1965 tornado, etc. There is a Radisson Road nearby, I believe, in the Forest Hills area near Hopkins. Our mail has gone that route before arriving at our home. Also, it is confusing to visitors and delivery people to have the sign on the west end read "Radisson Road" and the sign on the other end read "Radisson Inn Road." Radisson Inn Road has historical importance. We appreciate your study of this issue. We have 5 children, ages 6-18, so we have one older son who drives the street and younger children who play near the street. So we have strong concerns about safety. After reviewing all the options, we are in favor ofleaving things as they are. None of the options seems to guarantee slower cars or less traffic, and they all seem to place a major burden on residents in terms of inconvenience. F: \ WPWIM1585-00\SafetyandOperationStudy.doc Page 18 I I Paula Callies 20465 Radisson Road TharUks for all the work on this. I still thirUk it is worthwhile to consider closing the road half way - Radisson Entrance Road. This would definitely eliminate cut- through traffic from both directions and decrease traffic overall. There is already a natural turnaround by either backing into Radisson Entrance or going all the way down to the end of Radisson Entrance to turn around. I The concern regarding a long cul-de-sac does not seem more significant than the already very long distance between Christmas Lake Road / Radisson Road and Covington Road/Old Market Road if Brom is closed off to make a I-way. Isn't Christmas Lake Road up to Brand Circle essentially a long cul-de-sac? There are safety considerations in addition to emergency vehicle access that need to be balanced in this situation. TharUks. I I Lucinda Aamot-Noonan 21115 Radisson Road Felt the study did not address most needs of citizens, especially pedestrians. Radisson Road is used as a circumference road by many people living 2 miles in any direction of the lake walking/running and as a bile trail access to the Hennepin County Trail in Excelsior. People coming from Near Mountain, Sweetwater and Lake Lucy Road and Co. Rd. 41 use this as a recreational trail, routinely even in the winter months. The one-way direction failed to take into account that our 3 schools, Excelsior-Elementary and MMW -middleschool are west and Charten School in Chaska. Not to mention the town of Excelsior, dentists, library, etc. This road was temporarily one-way during construction. Instead of 1/10 of a mile to access the highway (west), we had to go nearly 1 mile east on a very compromised road to access the highway and then back west. Five to 7 minutes versus 15 to 20 minutes to access the highway. Way too much of an inconvenience! We live right on the frontage road. I I I I Would like to see (1) study blocking Broms Road temporarily with another study for cut-through traffic occurring well after it becomes known that this access is not available. I I More 2 to 3 weeks Ix each traffic control police enforcing speed limit. If this did not work out, then another plan not studied by the consultants to City could be suggested - blocking or a dead end with a cul-de-sac at Radisson Entrance. This, while not ideal, would still allow emergency vehicles to enter from both directions. (Example is the end of Christmas Lake Road as it enters or would connect to Mill Street.) Blocking or dead ending at this point is defmitely more 1/2 way for residents between Christmas Lake Road and Brom Road. I I Les & Barb Nelson 20820 Radisson Inn Road Comments Related to the Radisson Inn Rd Traffic Studv Cieneral Comment: We appreciate the thought and care that has gone into this Analysis of Alternatives (AoA). I attended the information meeting held on 12/2/04 and offer the following comments. I Alternative 1: Reconstruction Do not consider this as a viable alternative. It is cost prohibitive. Further, completion of this alternative does not suggest that the problem would be fixed. In fact, this may only exacerbate the problem by providing a more inviting alternative to Hi 7. I I Alternative 2: Signage If this alternative will provide the police with better enforcement opportunities, then this would be a good alternative. The impact of this option, we suspect, will diminish with time. People will become used to the signs and ignore them. I I Alternative 3: Close Street Access This is an attractive alternative. This allows exiting our home either to the east or the west. Our normal pattern would be to exit to the west which would be no problem. The impact to the affected neighborhoods needs to be examined carefully. This will have a significant increase in traffic for at least two neighborhoods. I F: \ WPWIM 1 585-00ISafetyandOperationStudy. doc Page 19 I I Alternative 4: One-way (East) My main concern with this alternative is the winter driving during or right after a storm or wet snowfall. I leave for work around 6 AM and am very concerned about going up the hill. Shorewood does a good job with the streets during the storm, but this is early in the morning to feel the full affects of recovery after a storm. My normal route has been to go west to the Christmas Lake lights and this works very well during winter inclement weather. If the road to the east is plowed and salted suffIciently early in the morning this would also be workable. I I One-way (West) My main concern with this is also related to winter. I live at 20820 and have a bad winter driveway. During winter storms, the only way I have a chance of making it up my driveway is to take a run starting at Tiffany Lane. The person that plows our driveway lives close and does a good job, but he is not always able to get to it by the time I return home. Even with the driveway plowed, we rarely try to drive up the driveway in the winter coming from the east of the driveway. If the decision were to have a one-way to the west, we would appreciate help in understanding how to manage the "winter" issue. I I I Delivery trucks will also have diffIculty navigating the driveway as well as others on our road with the one-way west road. I I Dan Noonan 21115 Radisson Road Suggestions: Several suggestions. 1. If the police would try saturation patrol on Radisson Inn Rd. during peak traffic times and when the cut-through traffIc is at a peak, we suspect that this will be a real deterrent. This could be instituted quickly while other alternatives are reviewed. 2. All alternatives need to be examined in the context of winter driving. 3. All alternatives need to be examined from driveway access to trucks, e.g., delivery vehicles, garbage and recycling traffIc. 4. All alternatives need to be examined from the impact to school busses. 5. One-way traffIc could be a very critical problem between Tiffany Lane and Christmas Point Road - the sight lines are not good in the best of conditions, winter only magnifIes the sight issues (from the East for Tiffany Lane and from both ways on Christmas Point Road). There are three very diffIcult driveways between these two roads which also create and experience issues with sight lines in ALL weather conditions. Biggest safety concern is protecting countless citizens that walk daily around lake! I I I I Rec: 1. 2. Stripe off walk path on side of road along Radisson Road. Have both Radisson Inn Road 3 Radisson Entrance both dead end in circle cul-de-sac - Therefore, everyone living west of this point enters and exits from the west of this point, and everyone living east of this point enters and exits from the east side of this dead end - i.e., no through traffIc, cul-de-sac for snow plan, etc. to turn around.

However, I have the following comments based on a review of the information you sent me on November 5, 2004. Please accept these comments as part of the record for the December 2, 2004 meeting. Alternative 1 - Reconstruct / Widen Road Cost: $2.000.000 Pros: 1. Safer for high traffic volume. Cons: 1. This alternative would change Radisson Road from a residential street to a collector / frontage road for Highway 7. Traffic volume would increase. The speed of traffic would increase. 2. The character of the neighborhood would change from residential to freeway. 3. House set backs would be at issue. Many homes are within feet of the road right of way. 4. The $2,000,000 price tag is the most expensive alternative. 5. Additional cost may be needed for sidewalks (similar to Old Market Road) due to the increased traffic. Comments: This alternative costs too much anq would have an overall negative impact on the neighborhood. Alternative 2 - Sianina and Stripina Improvements Cost: $60.000 Pros: 1. Traffic will be better informed as to the centerline of the road and speed limit. Cons: 1. Ineffective in reducing traffic volume. Does not address the severity of safety hazards present. 2. Does not address the substandard aspects of the exiting road. 3. Enforcement. 4. Radisson Road would continue to be used as a frontage road for Highway 7. Comments: This alternative does little to solve the traffic volume and does not address the substandard aspect of the road. F: \ WPWIMI 585-00ISafetyandOperationStudy.doc Page 22 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I To: Larry Brown From: Dennis Jabs December 1, 2004 Page 2 of 4 Alternative 3 - Close Street Access Cost: $180.000 Pros: 1. This alternative transforms Radisson Road from a substandard Highway 7 frontage road / collector road back to its original purpose as a residential road built to serve the immediate surrounding residential neighborhood. 2. Traffic volume would significantly be reduced negating the need for major additional road improvements. 3. The character of the neighborhood would remain residential. 4. Nominal cost. 5. Potential benefit to adjacent park to claim vacated roadway land. 6. Consistent with good road planning principles. This alternative forces traffic either to Highway 7 or Old Market Road (which is built to a collector road standard). Radisson Road is substandard even for residential use and eliminating its use as a Highway 7 frontage road / collector road improves safety. Cons: 1. Neighbors in the immediate area will have to travel further to get to Highway 7 via Old Market Road. Note there are only a few homes this will affect. 2. Does not address the substandard aspects of the exiting road. Comments: This is my most favored alternative. The road to be closed is the primary reason for the high volume of traffic from outside the neighborhood. It serves as a shortcut, transforming Radisson Road into a frontage road for Highway 7. My observation is that significant traffic on Radisson Road is from traffic frequently the Holiday gas station and shopping center, the high school and traffic from Highway 7 when it get backed up due to congestion. Radisson Road should only serve as local access for residents in the neighborhood. It may be advantageous to relocate the cemetery entrance to the cui de sac after the road closing. This would allow access to the cemetery without cutting through residential areas. The cemetery would benefit by having direct access to the cemetery via collector roads and the neighborhood would benefit by not having cemetery procession traffic.

Traffic volume would significantly be reduced negating the need for major additional road improvements. 3. The character of the neighborhood would remain residential. 4. Nominal cost. Cons: 1. Radisson Road serves the community around Christmas Lake. The proposed one-way road configuration disrupts the continuity of the neighborhood that has existed for many years. 2. Travel to neighbors in the opposite direction of the one-way causes one to travel several miles and onto Highway 7. This is detrimental to the neighborhood. 3. Does not address the substandard aspects of the exiting road. Comments: This alternative accomplishes the goal of eliminating traffic that rightly belongs on Highway 7 and surrounding collector roads. However it disrupts the existing neighborhood community by creating long and circuitous travel for the neighbors. Neighborhood traffic would need to go onto Highway 7 to visit neighbors located a few homes away in the wrong direction of the one-way road.

I recommend Alternative 3 - Close Street Access because it would significantly reduce the traffic volume and be the least disruptive to the Christmas Lake community and the existing neighborhood traffic flow. Only Alternative 1 - Reconstruct / Widen Street addresses the problem that Radisson Road is dangerous because it is of substandard design and construction. I recommend that in addition to any of the other alternatives an amendment be made to improve portions of Radisson Road associated with areas of extreme deficiencies which make the road dangerous. For example, my residence is located on a blind corner. Not only is the corner blind but the width of the road is dangerously narrow. Due to the blind corner, I'm not able to safely use an attached garage on my residence located near the road. Further, due to the road's narrowness, trucks and buses frequently hit the retaining wall along my property, creating property damage. This area of Radisson Road is obviously a safety hazard and could be remedied by realigning the road to the north, where the city already owns considerable land along the Radisson Road right of way. In my opinion this blind corner is one of the most dangerous areas of Radisson Road and could inexpensively be remedied because Shorewood already owns land on the north side of the road and to the east of the blind corner.
