4. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
There were no matters from the floor presented this evening.
5. REPORTS AND PRESENTATIONS
A. Recognition of Park Commissioner Pat Arnst, and Planning Commissioners
Deborah Borkon and Donna Woodruff
Mayor Love, on behalf of the City of Shorewood, thanked Park Commissioner Pat Arnst and Planning .
Commissioners Deborah Borkon and Donna Woodruff for sharing their time and talents to be part of the
City's Commissions in recent years. While he noted the absence of Ms. Borkon and Ms. Woodruff, he
stated the City greatly appreciated their efforts volunteered on the Commissions and he wished them well
in their future endeavors.
Mayor Love thanked Ms. Arnst for her efforts as Park Commissioner and Chair as she championed
balanced use of the City parks for local residents and the entire South Lake Minnetonka community. He
noted her many accomplishments as well as her courage and energy in working with the many programs
throughout the City. He also noted her contribution through the volunteer Gardener program that
beautified the parks' entrances as well as City Hall, and he noted the wonderful addition of the Skate
Park as part of her seven and one-half years work on the Park Commission.
Mayor Love then presented Ms. Arnst with a plaque of appreciation from the City for her work, time and
talents graciously given to the City.
Ms. Arnst stated she appreciated all the work and efforts from all Commissioners she had the pleasure of .
working with in the past seven years. She thanked the Commissioners for their tolerance, and gave
special recognition to Howard Young for identifying the need of seniors in the parks throughout the City.
She also thanked Jeff Bailey for helping her to realize a change was necessary in providing girls equal
opportunities for park usage, and she thanked City Staff for their hard work, dedication, patience and
determination in working with the Park Commission issues. Ms. Arnst wished all parties present good
luck in future endeavors.
B. Report by Tim Litfin, Minnetonka Community Education and Services Executive
Director
Tim Litfin, Executive Director of the Minnetonka Community Education Services (MCES), stated he was
happy to be able to meet with Council this evening with regard to changes being made within the MCES
program. He stated MCES was moving forward in new and positive ways, wanting to continue past
relationships, and enhancing current relationships as well. He noted several community events that
MCES would be participating in such as the Rake-a-Thon, Kids Voting program, and Adopt-A-Family
program for the holidays.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
October 25, 2004
Page 3 of7
Director Nielsen arrived at 7:10 P.M.
Mayor Love stated Council had heard a report from Tad Shaw, Shorewood's representative to the MCES
Advisory Board, at the last Regular City Council meeting. At that time, Council was concerned about the
selection criteria for a broader-based Advisory Board.
Mr. Litfin explained, while the letter explaining the broader based Advisory Board had arrived prior to
his employment with the MCES, he understood the idea to have a broader based Advisory Council
including several new groups in effort to have more voices and needs heard by MCES. He noted the
negative impacts to that approach would be that working with such a large group might prove
challenging, and thus, smaller committee work was anticipated.
In response to Councilmember Turgeon's question, Mr. Litfin also explained the Advisory Council
would still remain, but would be enlarged; however, representation was currently being solicited from
City Councils for the new Advisory Council, rather than residents at large.
. Councilmember Garfunkel stated it had been his experience that it was difficult to work with such a large
group of people in trying to establish policy, as it was quite difficult to focus that many people toward
one goal effectively. He also stated the groups that were designated had the potential to attempt to
exercise a single agenda rather than view the broader based picture as was the intention of MCES at this
point.
Mr. Litfin stated it was the hope of the School Board that this newly proposed Advisory Board would
help to provide connections and to work with each group as "part and parcel" of a larger group. He
stated he would carry the concerns of Council back to the School Board at its next discussion of this
topic.
Mayor Love, on behalf of the Council, thanked Mr. Litfin for being present this evening to meet and
discuss these issues with Council.
.
6. PUBLIC HEARING
There were no public hearings scheduled for this evening.
7. PARKS
Since there had not been a meeting of the Park Commission since the last Regular City Council meeting,
there was no report given.
8. PLANNING
Commissioner White reported on matters considered and actions taken at the October 19,2004, Planning
Commission Meeting (as detailed in the minutes of that meeting).
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
October 25, 2004
Page 4 of7
A. Setback Variance
Applicants: Carl and Ali Zinn
Location: 5820 Ridge Road
Director Nielsen explained the property owners proposed converting an existing attached. garage into
living space and constructing a new attached garage in the front of the house. He also noted two private
roadways served the property, with the eastern boundary being Ridge Road, providing the primary access
to all the houses between Christmas Lake and Silver Lake. There was also a secondary road over the
Zinn property that became a private drive just past the Zinn property line. The applicant proposed to
locate the garage in the flat area at the front of the property. Due to the location of the second private
road the proposed garage required a setback variance of 25 feet.
Upon analysis of the case, Director Nielsen noted this case was consistent with the provisions for
granting a variance and based on the property conditions Staff recommended approval of the setback
variance.
Council had no questions regarding this case.
.
Garfunkel moved, Zerby seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 04-091, "A Resolution Granting
A Setback Variance for Carl and Ali Zinn, 5820 Ridge Road." Motion passed 5/0.
B. Variance from Hardcover Regulations
Applicants: Dick and Kelly Cassidy
Location: 26140 Birch Bluff Road
Director Nielsen explained the applicants had a purchase agreement for the property located at 26140
Birch Bluff Road and proposed to demolish the existing home on the property and build a new home that
would necessitate a variance of the 25 percent hardcover restriction. The property was located in the R-
1C/S zoning district and was subject to Shore land regulations. While the lot was nonconforming with
regard to area, it was deemed buildable under City Code because it met 70 percent of the required
minimums for that zone. He also went on to explain the topography of the site rose approximately ten .
feet to the existing home and then dropped off abruptly to Lake Minnetonka to the north. A loop
driveway served the existing home. Director Nielsen stated the applicant also proposed removing an
existing shed down by the lake in effort to mitigate hardcover on the property. At present, the
impervious surface on the site was 33.7% ofthe lot area.
Director Nielsen then explained the proposed house eliminated the loop driveway by creating a side
loading approach on the higher part of the lot. The proposed home would contain 7,390 square feet of
floor area divided between three levels. The new three-car garage would have 887 square feet of floor
area. He noted the maximum hardcover for the Shore land district was 25 percent. While the proposed
plan reduced the impervious cover to 29.67 percent, hardcover for the site remained in excess by
approximately 8 percent. To that end, the applicants proposed mitigating the variance by using a
permeable brick paving system.
With regard to the issue of substandard lots, Director Nielsen explained the applicants' request complied
with most of the criteria associated with development of a substandard lot. The proposed house complied
with the setback requirements of its zoning district; however, proposed hardcover for the house exceeded
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
October 25, 2004
Page 5 of7
the 25 percent maximum by 4.67 percent. Also, the floor area of all structures on the property would
exceed the 30 percent ratio to lot area, as the ratio of all structures to lot area would be 37.7 percent.
With regard to criteria for a variance in this case, Director Nielsen stated the request did not seem to
meet any of the criteria necessary for granting a variance in this case. Furthermore, he stated there
appeared to be inadequate information related to the use of permeable paving systems as a way to
mitigate impervious surface in lot development. Director Nielsen also noted the Planning Commission
had decided to study the issue of use of permeable paving systems as part of its 2005 Work Program, and
should the City believed these paving systems had merit in offsetting the impervious surface regulations,
the regulations should be changed by ordinance amendment. For these reasons, the Commission had
voted unanimously to deny the request for variance in this case.
Mayor Love stated he agreed with the Planning Commission recommendations for this case, as did
Councilmembers Lizee and Turgeon.
.
Turgeon moved, Lizee seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 04-092. "A Resolution Denying a
Setback Variance for Dick and Kelly Cassidy, 26140 Birch Bluff Road." Motion passed 5/0.
9. GENERAL/NEW BUSINESS
A. Planning Commission Appointment
Administrator Dawson explained there was a vacancy on the Planning Commission since Commissioner
Woodruff had recently resigned from that position, with a term that expired February 28,2005. He also
explained City Staff had contacted two individuals that had interviewed for the Planning Commission
positions vacant earlier in the year and remained interested in working on the Commission.
Council indicated a preference to be able to contact these two individuals prior to appointing a new
Commissioner for the Planning Commission. Administrator Dawson stated this item would be placed on
the next Regular City Council Meeting Agenda for further consideration.
.
10.
ENGINEERING/PUBLIC WORKS
A. Approve Plans, Specifications and Estimates for Freeman Park/Shorewood Oaks
Drainage Project
Engineer Brown explained that during the October 11, 2004, City Council Meeting, Staff was provided
direction regarding finalization of the design documents for the drainage way to be constructed between
the properties of 26030 and 26040 Shorewood Oaks Drive. In preparation for the construction, the out
lot between the properties had been surveyed and staked to illustrate the alignment of the drainage way in
the field. After stakes were placed, an impromptu meeting was conducted with the two homeowners
adjacent to the outlot. Mr. Healy and Ms. Siverts agreed to a revised alignment that was a compromise
between the original plan documents and a straight centerline, which did encroach onto Mr. Healy's
property of 26040 Shorewood Oaks Drive. Both property owners agreed in principle to the compromise,
and Staff was now submitting the documentation for approval of the plans, specification and estimate for
this proj ect.

In response to Mayor Love's question, Engineer Brown explained that since the contractor was in the
area working on other projects, this project could be completed, weather permitting, within the next two
weeks.
Turgeon moved, Zerby seconded, Approving the Plans, Specifications, and Estimates for Freeman
Park/Shorewood Oaks Drainage
B. Authorize Expenditure of Funds for Freeman Park/Shorewood Oaks Drainage
Project
Engineer Brown explained this item would provide funding for the Freeman ParklShorewood Oaks
Drainage Project. He also explained, in response to Councilmember Zerby's question, that due to the
grade tolerances required for this project, it would be wise to use a contractor to perform the work.
Turgeon moved, Lizee seconded, Authorizing Expenditure of Funds for Freeman Park/Shorewood
Oaks Drainage Project. Motion passed 5/0.
C. County Road 19/Country Club RoadlSmithtown Road Intersection Project
.
Engineer Brown explained the bids for the County Road 19/Country Club RoadlSmithtown Road
Intersection Project were opened on October 20, 2004. He stated he was pleased to announce the lowest
bid was from Eureka Construction Inc., in the amount of $3,566,322.45. He also explained it was vitally
important to note that $1,523,066.60 of the total was eligible for State Aid reimbursement. Engineer
Brown stated that, upon verification of this amount with the State, he was informed that while the City of
Shorewood had placed a reserve for advance funding with the State Aid Offices, funds were not
guaranteed, since fund availability was available on a "first-come/first-served" basis. The State currently
reported zero funds were currently available for advancement. Due to this late development, Staff was
now reconsidering the fmancing alternatives to be considered for the project. He also stated it was
anticipated that the award of the project would be placed on the Regular City Council Meeting Agenda
for November 8, 2004.
Administrator Dawson stated there were several alternatives being investigated for the funding of this .
project, including a bonding process. He also stated representatives from Hennepin County were taking a
favorable position with regard to the bids.
Councilmember Turgeon stated she was concerned representatives from Hennepin County were only
allotting $200,000 to pay a $1,600,000 debt that had been created due to problems with the Hennepin
County process for this project. In addition she stated the County had known the City would need to
borrow Minnesota State Aid (MSA) funds for the project, and that the City had invested a great deal
more than $1,000,000 for the project to date. She also noted there were many aspects to the project that
were under the control of Hennepin County, including the delay for construction. She stated she would
not support bonding for this project.
Mayor Love questioned whether there would be some money anticipated by the State based on the idea
that some municipalities might not utilize their funding from MSA funds as requested. Engineer Brown
explained that there was a flaw in the MSA funding mechanism that mandated that municipalities had
twelve weeks to utilize requested funds without financial penalty for expiration due to false requests. He
stated he thought it important to begin working with people at the County level that would be supportive
of the City in this project. Also, he thought it important for the Council to contact any County
.
.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
October 25, 2004
Page 7 of7
representatives that would be supportive of the City's situation in this matter. Engineer Brown also
stated the State was eager for the City of Shorewood to utilize these funds, so he anticipated some relief
could be realized from the State as well.
Further, Engineer Brown explained, in response to Councilmember Garfunkel's question, that the County
was also eligible for State Aid funds, and one option might be to have the County "bankroll" the project.
Councilmember Garfunkel stated he was still experiencing "sticker shock" as it seemed the City was
being asked to provide $1,600,000 of a $4,500,000 project and he did not think this seemed quite right in
this case, as County Road 19 was a County roadway.
Administrator Dawson stated there were many alternatives to research and he believed there would be
greater certainty about this matter at the next Regular City Council Meeting.

B. Review Agenda
Without objection from Council, Mayor Love proceeded with the Agenda for the meeting.
2. ENTERPRISE BUDGETS
Administrator Dawson stated budgets for the Enterprise Funds for the Year 2005 Budget would be
presented this evening for discussion. The documents presented to Council this evening consisted of the
budgets for Water Operations and Debt Service, Sanitary Sewer Fund, Stormwater Management,
Recycling Funds, and Liquor Operations.
A. Water Budget
Finance Director Burton explained the Water Fund budget was comprised of two parts: the Water Debt
Service budget and the Water Operating Budget. The 2005 Water Debt Service budget included
payments for the existing bond issues and the anticipated 2005 issue which would finance major water
and well improvements in 2005. These debt service payments were programmed at approximately
$356,000 and would be paid for by a transfer from the Water Operating budget. She went on to explain
the 2005 Water Operating Budget revenues were projected to be approximately $1,738,000 while
expenses were forecast to be approximately $1,800,000. Proposed capital expenditures to be funded from
2005 bond proceeds included the Amesbury Well enhancements, Badger Well House reconstruction,
Woodhaven Interconnection, Radio Read project, and the Southeast Water Tower Painting.
Finance Director Burton also stated in order for the Water Funds to be self-supporting, to assure the
system could provide for improvements, and to preserve fund balance at current levels, the third year of
implementation of a water increase had been scheduled. Based on that plan, the final scheduled increase
would change the base rate in 2005 from $30 to $35 for up to 10,000 gallons: rates would remain at
$2.95/1000 gallons for 10,000-50,000 gallons usage, and $3.75/1000 gallons for 50,000+ gallons usage.
She noted the proposed 2005 increase would generate an additional $25,000 in annual revenue and the
average quarterly bill would increase to approximately $94 per quarter.

B. Sanitary Sewer Budget
With regard to the Sanitary Sewer Budget, Finance Director Burton stated the City currently had about
2,800 connections to its Sanitary Sewer system. This fund had a substantial fund balance that had enabled
it to be utilized to fund other City projects, such as the Gideon Glen land acquisition. There were no
additional rate increases recommended at this time.
Proposed operating revenues and expenditures for year 2005 were contemplated at approximately
$873,500, with capital improvements of approximately $247,000 planned for the year as well. Capital
improvements included refurbishment of Lift Stations 15 and 17, and the purchase of a sewer camera,
Trailer Jetter, and purchase of a portable generator. Funds had also been designated for Inflow &
Infiltration Control and reduction projects.
C. Stormwater Management Budget
The 2005 Stormwater Management Budget contemplated revenues and expenditures of about $379,000, .
including operations and internal repayment for the Gideon Glen land acquisition. Capital improvement
projects anticipated included the Gideon Glen drainage project to be funded by grant proceeds by the
Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD), as well as Boulder Bridge Storm Sewer Lift station
improvements and the Glen Road Drainage Improvement project. No additional rate increases were
scheduled at this time.
D. Recycling Budget
The Recycling Budget contemplated revenues and expenditures of approximately $117,220. The City
anticipated receiving grant monies from Hennepin County Grant Funds. Finance Director Burton noted
the number of households participating in the recycling program remained stable. No rate increases were
proposed at this time.
E. Liquor Operations Budget
Finance Director Burton explained the City anticipated reasonable profit levels at its two current
municipal stores; however, the budget had been prepared quite conservatively based on the changing
market for liquor stores within nearby retail areas. She stated Staff would be working diligently to
monitor this budget and funding, and would propose modifications if necessary.
.
Mayor Love expressed gratitude to City Staff, Liquor Committeemembers and Store Manager Don
Swandby for continued profits for the City municipal liquor stores despite tough economic situations.
Finance Director Burton thanked Council for its time spent considering these matters and noted the
budgets would be slated for adoption at the December 13,2004, Regular City Council Meeting.

State Highway 7. Shurgard has purchased Minnesota Mini-Storage and they propose to
replace the existing signs on the site. Exhibit A illustrates the proposed pylon sign
replacement in front of the building. An existing wall sign on the north side will be
removed and replaced with a wall sign on the front 'of the lower building on the west side
of the site (see Exhibit B). The existing wall sign on the west side of the two-story
building will be replaced with a Shurgard sign (Exhibit C).
. The pylon sign contains 186 square feet of area (on one side), including the time and
temperature component. The wall sign on the one-story building contains 62 square feet
of area, and the wall sign on the two-story building contains 170 square feet. Total
signage amounts to 418 square feet. The Zoning Code allows a total sign area up to 10
percent of the building silhouette as viewed from the street. Since the building silhouette
contains 4339 square feet of area, the applicant is within the maximum allowable sign
area. It should be noted that the height of the freestanding sign is limited to 20 feet,
which complies with the maximum height requirement. "
Approval of the sign permit is recommended. It is worth mentioning that Shurgard has
also submitted plans for their other site, located west of the Rapid Oil facility on Highway
7. . That plan includes a request to amend the signage provisions for the C-1 zoning
district. The amendment will be scheduled for a public hearing by the Planning
Commission on 7 December.

7. Howards Point Marina. Things are progressing well since HPM's request for parking boats/trailers "across the
streef' was approved last Spring.
8. Sheriff's Department Annual Meeting: Each year the LMCD and the Sheriffs Water Patrol meet to review the
results of the boating season, discuss future plans, and renew their cooperative agreement This meeting will be on
November 9th this year.
9. Six Mile Creek: The LMCD has been collecting opinions from various cities and agencies with regard to the
legislation that nullified our authority in the Lake's tributaries. The opinions collected thus far have been positive (in favor
of restoring our authority.) In the mean time, we are not doing our normal work in these areas (dock inspections,
complaint management, etc.) Instead we are forwarding these items on to the cities, with a copy to Gen Olson,
indicating that we are willing to assist, if requested.
10. 2005 Board Appointments: LMCD staff will be sending reminder notices to those member cities whose Board
member term expires at the end of the year. (This includes my term.)
10. On-going Licenses/Permits: The LMCD staff has sent out renewal deicing installation applications for the
2004-2005 season. In Shorewood there are 3 such applications. A copy of the approved license for each of these
installations will be forwarded to Shorewood. Because of safety concerns about the growing number of deicing
applications, particularly by residential homeowners, the LMCD Board has placed a moratorium on granting additional
such permits until further analysis can be done. LMCD staff will also be working on the preparation of renewal
applications for charter boats and related liquor licenses for the 2005 season.
.
1L Logistics: The LMCD Board is interested in having its meetings broadcast on cable television. The facilities at
Tonka Bay City Hall do not lend themselves to this, and as a result, we are going to try a different location on a trial basis
- Wayzata City Hall. This is planned to happen beginning in January 2005.

equipment list is included. The equipment list is projected as pricing may
have changed prior to the time of purchase. Purchases are subject to approval
by the commission and may change if technology dictates better options.

Re: Sump Pump Surcharge
.
Dear Mr. Johnson;
.' I have reviewed a letter datedDctober 31~2004; that you sent to Bonnie Burton, the City's Finance
Director/Treasurer. Yourais~ several issues regarding the appeal of the sump pump surcharge that
may be certified to Hennepin County in 2004as a delinquent payment. This matter is identical to the
one involving you in 2003, and is.being handled in exactly the same way.
The Shorewood City Council typically takes up the matter of certifying delinquencies at one time,
-c-7"=""-=-~uaRy-in,Gett>ber~r-:Nevembel'...cT-bis"gGhedul&gives,pr.aperty.,ewnerscas"muGh.4im.e"ascpossib~".....
to make payment and remove their delinquent status before the County's deadline for certification.
. The notice of delinquency sent to you on August 16, 2004, related that you had ''the right to request a
hearing before the City Council to explain why the. account has not been paid and request thatthe .
delinquent amotmt not be added" to your property tax statement. The letter also noted that "[i]f a
hearing is requested it will be held at 7:00 p.m. on October 25, 2004"; Hence, we did not.-belie\le-that----
it was necessary to contact you after you sent a letter requesting a hearing.
As matters took their course, the matter of delinquencies was scheduled for November 8, 2004. We
sent you a letter on October 28, 2004, to advise you of this date. As you sent a letter on August 18
requesting a hearing, you have. had over two months to prepare your appeal to the City Council.
You also note the absence of ''the benefit accounting for the proposed tax special assessment." As
we made clear at during Council discussion in 2003 of your sump pump surcharge and in subsequent
-paper~..filed-in4eSPQnse-tQ..yQur-subsequenUa.wsuit,..the-City2s-Surchargels-permittecLas-8...teasonable

such charges under this statute.

The 2004 sump pump surcharge on your property has been entirely an administrative matter thus far.
The notification sent to you in August and the notice of scheduling sent to you last week have not
been related to any litigation or court submissions you have f1led. Neither letter has been done at the
behest of the City Attorney, Mr. Keane, or our Special Counsel, Mr. Hoff. Rather, our Finance staff
has handled these communications to you in the same way as any property owner with a delinquent
account.
Mr. Hoff has been representing the City regarding sump pump surcharges from prior years, as you
have filed litigation against the City on them. Should the sump pump surcharge that may be certified
in 2004 become a matter of litigation, Mr. Hoff may be involved subsequently.
.
As you requested, your hearing has been scheduled for next Monday, November. 8, if you wish to
state your appeal of the delinquent sump pump surcharge to the City Council.

Re: Ronald Richard Johnson v. City of Shorewood, etc., et aL,
Court File No. AP03-20830
Dear Ms. Burton:
I have your letter dated October 28, 2004, metered and postmarked October 29, 2004, .
which I received on Saturday October 30, 2004 regarding substantially City demands for
payment of sump pump charges. Kindly consider the following and get back to me in
writing promptly, thank you.
1. Merely 7 day notice of hearing is insufficient due process and the City (through
you) has not yet provided the benefit accounting for the proposed tax special assessment.
2. I requested the hearing on August 18, 2004 in prompt response to. the City's
payment demand dated August 16,2004 and heard nothing until your October 28,2004
letter.
3. The timing of your belated letter suggests it was in response to court submissions
recently filed, possibly Shorewood's submission to the court dated October 26,2004.
4. Your letter is shown copied to legal counsel, Timothy J. Keane, who is shown
copied on Mr. Hoff's October 26, 2004 letter. This suggests Mr. Keane put you up to
writing yours.
.
5. Mr. Hoffis counsel for Shorewood's subrogee insurance camero His October 26,
2004 letter - - shown copied to the court - - references the pending "sump pump charge"
litigation.
6. His October 26, 2004 letter indicates Mr. Hoff wishes to control all City
communications regarding the "sump pump charge matter". Nowhere does your letter
reference Mr. Hoff.
.
.
7. On or about June 22, 2000 - - yes - - year 2000, Mr. Hoffwas served my federal
court pleading the "sump pump" charge was injurious. Since then the City has conducted
its own defacto court levying the charges.
8 . Your letter says nothing about the City providing the mandatory benefit
accounting. As you recall, the City refused to provide same previously asserting the
sump pump charge was not subject to Minn. Stat. 429.081 and, thusly, a benefit
accounting was not required. In his October 28, 2004 letter Mr. Hoff indicated the City
now admits this statute, hence the missing benefit accounting, applies.
Please consider the foregoing, provide the benefit accounting for the City's proposed tax
special assessment, and reschedule the hearing. I look forward to your prompt reply.

Shorewood, MN 55331
Re: Shorewood letter demand dated August 16, 2004.
Dear Ms. Nguyen:
.
The recipient of the City's demand, Ronald R. Johnson, hereby objects to the demand.
The City for years knew that this matter was part of Johnson's inverse condemnation
(takings) case now pending in (1) the U.S. Supreme Court; (2) the U.S. Court of Appeals
for the Federal Circuit; (3) the matter currently before the Honorable Tanya M.
Bransford; or due in the U.S. Supreme Court on or about September 2, 2004; and, (5) the
case pending before the Honorable Ann L. Alton in which the Honorable Chief Judge
Kevin S. Burke issued an order, a copy of which is enclosed herewith.
.
In short; enacting-and enforcing City Code 904.09 (the sump pump code) - - after the
Honorable Ann D. Montgomery ordered the City to pay Johnson U.S. Constitution Fifth
Amendment taking compensation for his land the City took - -, the City had homeowners
remove their sump pumps, including for swimming pools, from the City's sanitary sewer
pipes and instead put that water to City streets and to the City's regional storm sewer
system, water it dumps on Johnson's property which Judge Montgomery adjudicated a
taking. On May 21, 2004 Chief Judge Burke found that (1) Shorewood still has not paid
any compensation for the land it took; and (2) the City breached settlement agreements
the City had entered into regarding. The evidence was provided by the City's legal
counsel retained by the Minnesota League of Cities Insurance Trust. Same counsel also
provided similar evidence to Judge Bransford.
Bottom line, Johnson is not "delinquent" as you assert, - - a false averment in itself
actionable. In fact, Shorewood owes Johnson money on the "water and/or sewer utility
account" as well as $ millions injust compensation for taking Johnson's land to construct
the City's Waterford subdivisions and, also, took Johnson's home parcel. See. e.g. the
deposition of Bradley J. Nielsen in the Judge Montgomery case asserting that Johnson's
home must be demolished for a public street (another City uncompensated taking) - - the
City failed to enforce its street access code governing its Waterford development
constructed by contractors the City hired.
Finally, your demand notice is invalid in that it failed to mention that Johnson has
specific appeal rights under Minn. Stat. 429.081. See. Minn. Stat. 429.061 on due
process of law City procedures mandated by the Legislature, Le. "[T]he notice shall also
state that an owner may appeal an assessment to district court pursuant to section 429.081
by * * *". Minn. Stat. 429.061 entitled: "Assessment procedure" at subd. 1. As Chief
Judge Burke in effect ruled, statute 429 must be strictly followed and strictly construed.
Please confirm immediately in writing Johnson's request for a City hearing on its August
16, 2004 demand which failed to comply with statute.
Enclosure - Order dated May 21, 2004 by Chief Judge Burke.

RE:
Radission Road Presentation and Update by WSB and Associates
WSB and Associates was directed to prepare a traffic study for Radission Road. This on behalf of a
petition received by the residents who live on and around Radission Road stating that the subject
roadway is being utilized as an alternate route to State Highway 7.
Attachment 1 is the Origin Destination (00) study that was completed by WSB and Associates for the
City Council's reference. The report concluded that there is a high number of cut - through trips on
Radission Road.
.
Mr. Rickart and Mr. Hutton, of WSB and Associates, will be presenting alternatives to minimize cut
through traffic on the subj~_ct roadway. Staff is seeking feedback on the alternatives and associated
cost estimates. Once received, Mr. Rickart will finalize the report and submit this for acceptance by
the City Council.

Radisson Inn Road Origin and Destination Study
License Plate Survey
for the City of Shorewood
February 12, 2004
On behalf of area residents who were concerned about the number of vehicles using Radis-
son Road instead of TH 7 to make through trips between Christmas Lake Road and Old
Market Road and/or Vine Hill road, the City of Shorewood asked WSB and Associates to
conduct a survey 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 Thurs-
day, February 12, 2004. The morning survey was conducted between 6:10 and 10:00 AM;
the evening was surveyed between 2:30 and 6:20 PM.
Analysis Tabulation
The enclosed tabulation 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 num-
bers for the survey. The second column under the east station (Covington Road) indicates
the 10 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 en-
tered in the next column and the time of day in the next. The east station includes two col-
umns 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.
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 ve-
hicles 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 of the 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 ob-
served 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):
c 75 at west station
c 106 at east station
· Total PM observations:
c 105 at west station
c 119 at east station
· Total pass through trips: 88
c Total AM EB: 22
- To Covington Road: 10
- To TH 7 south frontage road: 12
c Total PM EB: 22
- To Covington Road: 13
- To TH 7 south frontage road: 9
c Total AM WB: 10
- From Covington Road: 6
- From TH 7 south frontage road: 4
c Total PM WB: 34
- From Covington Road: 16
- Page 3 -
J
- From TH 7 south frontage road: 18
· Total AM EB trips from West Station: 42; Total AM EB through trips: 22 - 52%
· Total AM EB trips through East Station: 77; Total AM EB through trips: 22 - 29%
· Total PM EB trips from West Station: 45; Total PM EB through trips: 22 - 49%
· Total PM EB trips through East Station: 45; Total PM EB through trips: 22 - 49%
· 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 RoadlTH 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. However, it would seem that a better choice of a street for
that through traffic would be Old Market Road.

Table 3
Undoubtedly, there will be fluctuations in the final amounts, since some of the items are based up_on
percentages of final construction. Knowing that "the question will be asked", the total that is
considered the City of Shorewood's portion (including all of the Shorewood State Aid amounts) would
then be estimated at $1-,032,730.80 + $578,528.61 or $1,611,259.41. Again, it is vitally important to
note that $1.523.066.60 of the above total is eligible for State Aid reimbursement.
Having stated this, Staff was performing status checks with the Department of Minnesota State ~<Ja
during compilation of this report. Much to our surprise, Staff was informed that while the City OW
Shorewood had placed a reserve for advance funding with the State Aid Office, that funds were not
guaranteed. Fund availability was dependent upon a first come first serve basis. At that time, (the
State had many reserves anticipated, but few projects that had been bid. The State now reports that
zero funds are currently available for advancement. While Staff acknowledged that there was not any
guarantee of funds being available, that the State reported that the funds appeared to be available for
this project.
This late development has forced Staff to reconsider the financing alternatives to be considered. It is
probable that the City may need to consider the selling of bonds for Shorewood's portion of the
project. Payment for the bonds, bonding costs and interest can be reimbursed by the City's annual
state aid allotment over time. While this would encumber the State Aid Fund balance for a number of
years, it provides the City an option for completing the project.
Staff is continuing to research financing alternatives. In addition, Staff is soliciting approval of the bid
costs from Hennepin County. Therefore, it is anticipated that the award of the project will be placed
on the Council agenda for November 8th, 2004.

Financing for CR 19 Intersection Project
TO:
FROM:
.
DATE:
SUBJECT:
When the Council considered the bids for the CR 19 intersection project at its October 25 meeting,
. staff reported that we had received some surprising news very recently. The State Aid Office at
MnDOT had informed us that $800,000 in advance Municipal State Aid (MSA) funding we had
requested would not be available: Staff recommended that Council continue the matter of awarding
the contract for this project to November 8, so that further work could be done regarding fin8I).ces.
Weare pleased that we have much more favorable news. The State Aid Office contacted several
cities that had requested and reserved MSA advance funding. It appears that several cities will not be
constructing projects on schedules they had planned, and some reserves thus became available for
Shorewood in the amount we had originally planned.
.
MSA Fundine: Available to Shorewood:
Council may recall that the City's MSA-eligible costs, based on the bids opened October 20, were:
Construction costs: $ 981,820.80
Non-construction costs: 578.528.61 (includes estimated costs)
Total: $1,560,349.41
The apparent responsible low bid, submitted by Eureka Construction, is $3,566,322.45. The
Engineer's Estimate (or "Opinion of Cost") was $3,146,789. The City's financing plan, based on the
original Engineer's Estimate, was as follows using round numbers:
$ 135,000
800,000
200,000
200.000
$1,335,000

County Road 19 Project Financing Plan
November 8, 2004, City Council Meeting
Page 2
Assistance in Financine: from Hennepin County: We have spoken with Hennepin County staff
regarding the $225,000 gap between the MSA-eligible cost and the MSA cash available during
construction. The cash amount is important as the City is administering (and hence, paying) the
contractor. As a way to help with the cash flow, Hennepin County is willing to delay submission of
its invoices to the City for Shorewood's costs for right-of-way acquisition ($250,000 estimated) and
construction engineering ($76,000). This $326,000 would cover the gap and provide a contingency
of $100,000 for change order costs assignable to the City.
This flexibility by the County would be formalized through a written commitment from Hennepin
County. In turn, the City would be reimbursing the County for the $225,000 (whatever the final
amount will be) with one to two later years' MSA funding allocations.
.
Revised Financine: Plan: By following through with the County's offer, the financing plan would
be as follows:
$ 135,000
800,000
200,000
200,000
200,000
25,000
$1,560,000
MSA on account
Advance MSA funding (2005-2007 construction and maintenance allocation)
2008 MSA construction allocation
2009 MSA construction allocation
2010 MSA construction allocation (to be paid to the County, to assist the
City for cash-flow)
2011 MSA construction allocation (and perhaps up to $125,000, to be paid to
the County to assist the City with cash-flow)
Total MSA funding
Implication for City's Future MSA Roadwav Improvements: This financing plan does commit
six full and one partial years' MSA allocations to the CR 19 intersection project. The City's MSA
construction account would not begin to accumulate funds for other projects until 2011.
.
Alternative Financine: Options:
. Stormwater Enteq>rise: Approximately $280,000 in costs for storm sewer/drainage
improvements are MSA-eligible. A general policy in the City's Stormwater Management
utility is that changes or improvements benefit the system, and thus are paid by all utility
customers. Over time, all customers benefit; hence, these costs are not assigned on a per-
subwatershed or per-property benefit basis.
While the County Road 19 improvements are within the scope of the Stormwater Enterprise,
there is a question whether they should be paid by all stormwater customers. They are needed
only because of this intersection project, and there were no other stormwater improvements in
the project area that would have been scheduled. While the Stormwater Enterprise is
available for funding, it would not be appropriate to use this revenue source.
.

November 8, 2004, City Council Meeting

. Bonding: Council has indicated reservations about issuing bonds for a County Road project;
however, this is an alternative for Council to review. Under the rules for the use ofMSA
funds, a city may use no more than 50 percent of its annual construction allocation for debt
service on MSA projects. We received preliminary information from a public financial
advisor:
. 15-year bonds would provide $1,280,000 for project funding (based on 3.80% average
interest rate and $110,000 available as 50 percent of MSA allocation). Total bonding cost
= $1,650,000. .
. 20-year bonds would provide $1,525,000 for project funding (based on 4.25% average
interest rate and $110,000 available as 50 percent ofMSA allocation). Total bonding cost
= $2,200,000.
This approach would allow the City to accumulate approximately $100,000 per year for other
MSA projects during the life of the bonds. It should be noted that the amount in the MSA
construction allocation generally increases gradually from year to year.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Council accept the renewed advance funding offer of the MnDOT State
Aid Office and the proposal by Hennepin County, and thus commit all of the City's future
MSA construction allocations to fund the MSA-eligible costs for the County Road
19/5mithtown Road/Country Club Road intersection improvement project.

Table 3
Undoubtedly, there will be fluctuations in the final amounts, since some of the items are based upon
percentages of final construction. Knowing that "the question will be asked", the total that is
considered the City of Shorewood's portion (including all of the Shorewood State Aid amounts) would
then be estimated at $1,032,730.80 + $578,528.61 or $1,611,259.41. Again, it is vitally important to
note that $1.523.066.60 of the above total is eligible for State Aid reimbursement.
.
Staff presented an update for this item during the October 25, 2004 City Council meeting, stating that
funding for the project was uncertain due to a shortfall in available funds from the Minnesota
Department of State Aid (MSA). MSA Staff has worked diligently to obtain funding for this project.
Attachment 2 is conformation from the office of MSA stating that an advance of $800,000 will be
honored providing the City awards the construction contract at the November 8th City Council meeting.
Staff has prepared a separate memorandum for Monday night's City Council meeting regarding the
financing for this project.
Recommendation
Staff is recommending approval of the attached resolution that accepts the bids and awards the contract
to Eureka Construction for the CR 19 - Smithtown Road Improvement Project. A resolution is
attached for your consideration.

Larry, If you can make that schedule, your advance will be honored,
which will allow you to draw your State Aid account down to a little
over $800,000 in the red. Good Luck.

Sandra Martinez made the calls to other communities to free up this
money. I plan a email to go out soon to all the other cities, expiring
any unused advance requests. They will automatically expire at year
end anyway. I plan to do it a month early to allow some year end
transactions to cities who need the money, not just say they need the
money.

CITIZEN RON JOHNSON'S
MEMORANDUM OF
OBJECTIONS, FACTS, AND
LAW OPPOSING "SUMP PUMP
PENALTY"
v.
INTRODUCTION
Ron Johnson received the City's letter dated November 2, 2004 noticing the
November 8,2004 hearing in the sump pump (penalty] surcharge matter. And, on
(Friday) November 5, 2004 Johnson received the hearing agenda for the (Monday)
November 8, 2004 hearing.
Johnson objects to the 11th hour notice; objects to the City denying a hearing
continuance; objects to the City denying his discovery requests - - including under the
Minnesota Data Practices Act - - for the "surcharge" benefit accounting for what the City
billed a "sump pump penalty". Simply put, as to Johnson the City's sump pump
surcharge is part of the City's sham to avoid paying U.S. Const. Just Compensation
Clause compensation and this hearing - as previous hearings on the issue since January 1,
1999 - is but a Mayor Woody Love administration kangaroo court.
This Memorandum is supported by all the City's records regarding its sump pump
ordinance, City Code ~ 904.09, City records of its hearing in the matter since Mayor
Love's administration came to power on January 1, 1999 including the Affidavit of
Former Mayor Thomas Dahlberg; the orders of the Hennepin County District Court by
the Honorable Ann D. Montgomery dated August 17, 1993 and by the Honorable then
1
. ,
Chief Judge Kevin S. Burke (the "Order") dated May 21, 2004 together with the photos
attached hereto:
(a) homeowner's swimming pool sump discharge hose pipe to City street/storm
sewage system;
(b) gully City sewage cut across Johnson's lawn he is forced to maintain along
with public sewage outfall structures and National Urban Runoff Pond
Johnson constructed to, in part, mitigate the effects of the sewage.
FACTS
I. On August 17, 1993 Judge Montgomery ordered Shorewood to pay
compensation for Johnson land it took to dispose of City storm sewage. This
would include sump pump water disposals, photos (a), (b).
2. In his Order, then Chief Judge Burke on May 21,2004 found that Shorewood
had still not paid compensation and breached agreements it entered into
(during Mayor Dahlberg's administration) to fix the problems (in overly
reasonable compromises). This is the current law in the matter.
3. After Judge Montgomery's order, on August 23, 1993 Shorewood enacted
City ordinance, codified City Code 904.09 (dubbed the "sump pump
ordinance"). Order. The intent of the ordinance was to save the City on the
average of $1 00 per month per household in sanitary sewer
disposals/treatment of homeowner sump pump waters. Under the ordinance
the City required homeowners to disconnect their sump pumps from the City's
sanitary sewer system and, instead, dispose of that water to City streets/storm
sewer system. For homeowners who refused to allow City inspection to
insure that was done, Shorewood charged a $100 per month presumed sump
2
, ,
pump disposal/treatment fee utility surcharge (dubbed a "sump pump
penalty").
4. As to the City's regional storm sewer system, disposals on Johnson's property
- - which Judge Montgomery adjudicated an uncompensated taking and then
Chief Judge Burke found the City still had not paid for the land it took - -
Shorewood disposed of sump pump waters on Johnson's land. Order; photos
(a),(b ).
5. No prior Shorewood administration, neither Barbara Brancel, Robert Bean nor
Thomas Dahlberg, saw fit to certify to Hennepin County sump pump penalty
surcharges on Johnson's tax bill.
6. In fact, the City during Mayor Brancel's administration entered into a written
agreement to not require Johnson compliance with the sump pump ordinance
while the issue of takings compensation was pending. It is still pending.
7. On October _,2004 Martin Wellens (Wellens) - - unopposed for the 4th ward
counsel seat - - appeared at Johnson's door and requested to meet members of
his family, more specifically, Johnson's two grandson's he wished to, and did
meet. Mr. Wellens also requested to view first hand alleged problems with
Johnson's property caused by the City Mr. Wellens heard about while running
for council in 1996, he recently learned were still unresolved.
8. On January 1,2005 Mr. Wellens will take power as Shorewood's new 4th
ward councilmember along with a new 3rd ward councilmember, Paula
Callies. The ward system is new and Johnson's ward will receive
representation long over due. No sitting council member ever bothered to
3
visit with Johnson on his property to view first hand the problems he alleges
since former Mayor Dahlberg and former councilmember Jerry O'Neil made
many visits, late 1996 through 1998.
ARGUMENT
First, the City violated procedural due process and equal treatment including by
giving hearing notice at the 11 th hour; refused a continuance; refused to produce Johnson
requested discovery - - including under the Minnesota Data Practices Act. Despite
coming to power four years ago and certifying the "sump pump penalties" on Johnson's
tax bill, no current City council member ever visited with Johnson on his property they
routinely do with other citizens but for newly elected councilmember Wellens visit in
October 2004.
Second, this lame duck council should continue the matter until January 1, 2005
when the newly elected new council comes to power.
Third, in his Order, then Chief Judge Burke quoted Minn. Stat. ~ 444.075, subd.
3, the same law cited by the City as applicable.l The statute authorizes Shorewood to bill
and collect utility surcharges but only to the extent the surcharges are "just and
equitable". Order at 2, footnote 1. The surcharges current Mayor Love administration
collected from Johnson are not "just and equitable" because the City is disposing sump
pump sewage on Johnson's land without paying for his land the City took to do that.
Order at 4; photos (a), (b).
1 See, letter dated November 2, 2004 by City Administrator/Clerk, Craig W. Dawson.
4
, .
Fourth, it is irrelevant whether Johnson has a sump pump (he denies havingi
because disconnecting a sump pump from the City's sanitary sewer system would amount
to additional City sewage disposals to Johnson's land without compensation.
Fifth, the City fIgures it saved on the average of $100 per month per household by
disconnecting sump pump water from its sanitary sewer and instead disposed those
waters on Johnson's land. The City should pay Johnson $100 per month since 1993 for
every household disposing sump water the City in turn disposed of on Johnson's land.
Finally, there is a question of fact why the current Mayor Love's administration
did not issue a variance - - routinely issued to others - - when Johnson was the sole
homeowner having a presumed sump pump disposal to the City's sanitary sewer system
obviously minimus and no real impact on the City's sanitary sewage treatment costs.
CONCLUSION
The City's collection of "sump pump penalty" surcharges from Johnson amounted
to money takings due Johnson and also due Johnson are the $100 per month sump pump
water disposal fee from those homes lying within the City's regional storm sewer system,
disposals Judges Montgomery (1993) and Burke (2004) indicated amounted to still
uncompensated takings of Johnson's land.
Dated: / /- b - () t(
. tted,
2 Employees of the City's contractual agent Hennepin County, Thomas Carroll and William Daly,
inspected the interior of Johnson's home and noted there was no sump pump. Former City Engineer, Joel
Dresel, and former City legal counsel, Thomas Humphrey, noted the Johnson home walkout basement
footing drained over the west hill demonstrating there was no sump pump.

1. Photo of Shorewood homeowner's swimming pool sump pump discharge hose
pipe to regional City street/storm sewer system.
2. Photo of the gully City storm sewage - - collectively including its sump pump
disposals - - cut across Johnson's lawn he must maintain at his expense together with the
fore and aft outfall structures and National Urban Runoff Pond Johnson constructed to, in
part, mitigate the effects of City sewage. 3
3 In March 1996 City Planner, Bradley J. Nielsen, abruptly cancelled a meeting scheduled by Johnson's
engineering consultant, Mr. Frank of McCombs Frank Roos Associates, Inc. (MFRA) to present fixes for
the flooding and obtain City permits so Johnson could do that. Mr. Frank in a June 1996 MFRA letter
confirmed the City refused to reschedule. Johnson faithfully obtained permits from the U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers and the Riley-Purgatory-BluffCreek Watershed District, the latter Mr. Nielsen objected to in
a City letter to the District in October, 1996. The current City Engineer, Mr. Brown, formerly was
employed by MFRA and supervised by Mr. Frank.
