Agenda Item #6B: The City Council directed Staff to obtain quotes for a video security system for Eddy Station. Staff has obtained 3 quotes for the project. Staff will be reviewing the proposal with the SLMPD and presenting this item for formal action on April 8th. Agenda Item 6C. Staff is recommending that concessions for Eddy Station be achieved internally. Larry Brown, City Engineer, will present this item for discussion at the City Council meeting. Agenda Item #7 A & #7B: Michael Clausen has applied for a simple subdivision/combination to rearrange the lot lines between his property at 26165 Birch Bluff Road and his neighbor's at 26175 Birch Bluff Road. The rearrangement will bring the neighbor's substandard lot into substantial compliance with the Shorewood Zoning Code. Mr. Clausen has also requested a conditional use permit (C.D.P.) to leave his existing home up while he constructs a new home on the lot. The Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of both requests. For the March 25 meeting, the C.D.P. still requires a four- fifths vote by the Council. A proposed ordinance amending this requirement to simple majority (Agenda Item #7E) will, if adopted, go into effect upon publication of the ordinance. Agenda Item #7C: Mr. Jeffrey Johnson has requested a setback variance to build a garage a.pproxima.tely 13 feet froffithe right-af-way of Club Lane. Based on safety concerns, lack of turn-around room, and the fact that there is more than adequate room to construct a garage on the site without a variance, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend denial of the variance. Council should direct staff to prepare findings-of-fact for the April 8 meeting. Agenda Item #7D: As mentioned previously to the City Council, the DNR no longer classifies Lake Linden as a lake. Consequently, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to remove it from Shorewood's Shoreland overlay zoning district. Approval of this amendment requires a four-fifths vote at the March 25 meeting. Agenda Item #7E: Based upon a recent Attorney General's opinion, the Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider changing the required vote for certain zoning actions. Although zoning district changes and Comprehensive Plan amendments from residential to commercial still require a four-fifths vote, all other actions (e.g. conditional use permits, variances, etc.) will require only a simple majority vote. This statutory change was made by the Legislature in 2001. The Planning Commission voted 4-0-1 to recommend approval of the amendment. Technically, this proposed ordinance still requires a four-fifths vote. . . . Executive Summary - City Council Meeting of 25 March 2002 I Page 3 of2 Agenda Item #8A: The Hennepin County Regional Railroad Authority (HCRRA) has acquired the "Dakota Rail Line", which extends from W ayzata to Hutchinson. The future of this line is under discussion; one option includes converting it to a regional recreation trail, similar to the Southwest LRT Regional Trail. With regard to trails, the City of Shorewood has a policy of encouraging them. While the Dakota Rail line is not within the Shorewood city limits, it does provide an opportunity for a more extensive trail system that would be available for residents of Shorewood and the greater Lake Minnetonka community. A resolution stating the City's support for a rail-to-trail conversion for the Dakota Rail line has been prepared. . . CITY OF SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCa WORK SESSION MEETING MONDAY, MARCH 11, 2002 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD COUNCIL CHAMBERS 6:00 P.M. MINUTES 1. CONVENE CITY COUNCa MEETING Mayor Love called the meeting to order at 6:08 P.M. A. Roll Call Present: Mayor Love; Councilmembers Garfunkel, Lizee, Turgeon, and Zerby (arrived at 6:20 P.M.); Administrator Dawson; Attorney Keane; and Deputy Clerk Panchyshyn Absent: Engineer Brown; Finance Director Burton; and Planning Director Nielsen . B. Review Agenda Without objection from Council, Mayor Love proceeded to the only item on the Agenda for this evening. 2. DISCUSSION ON ESTABLISHMENT OF WARDS AND STAGGERING OF COUNCa MEMBER TERMS Administrator Dawson explained Council had reviewed and discussed options for implementing a ward system of representation within the City at the February 11, 2002, Work Session Meeting. At that time, Council had indicated a preference for implementation of ward elections in 2002, development of alternatives allowing current Council members to complete their terms; and having odd-numberedleven- numbered ward elections. He then briefly reviewed a number of options for implementing the ward system for the 2002 election. . Administrator Dawson next explained two potential ward plan maps. The first ward plan showed ward representation within a five-percent population deviation system. The second ward plan showed ward representation within a 10 percent population deviation system. He also explained it was likely that all four current Councilmembers would live in two wards of the City. Administrator Dawson then thanked Deputy Clerk Panchyshyn for her efforts in creating the ward plan maps. Deputy Clerk Panchyshyn explained that census blocks are used to create the individual wards. It was noted that three potential polling sites are being considered for Ward 3. Administrator Dawson stated that polling sites must be located within 3000 feet of the precinct boundary, and that two of the three potential polling sites are within the City of Excelsior. Councilmember Turgeon stated it would help to keep the polling sites within the City of Shorewood limits to avoid confusion with elections of other municipalities. Mayor Love noted that the most centrally located polling site is in the City of Excelsior, and may be the most convenient location for the Ward. Mayor Love stated he preferred utilization of the ward map plan with 10 percent deviation, as it would be difficult to maintain stability in wards with only a five-percent deviation allowed. Attorney Keane explained there were no exact standards to abide by when developing a ward system in a statutory city; however, there were guiding principles needing to be applied. The first principle was to try to have wards "as equal in population as practicable" and to have each ward "composed of compact, contiguous territory." He also explained it was not uncommon practice for a charter city to establish a =#c2ft CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES March 11, 2002 Page 2 of2 percentage of deviation in population for ward boundaries within ordinances or establish as a policy statement in a resolution pertaining to the matter. Councilmember Zerby arrived at 6:20 P.M. Mayor Love stated he liked the 10 percent ward map plan because the borders were easily understandable and would allow for stability within wards to be maintained. Council indicated consensus for the 10 percent ward map plan. Deputy Clerk Panchyshyn stated, in response to Councilmember Garfunkel' s question, the ward map plans did not show voting precinct boundaries. Ward 1 would have two voting precincts, one on the island and one on the mainland. Wards 2, 3 and 4 would each have one voting precinct. A discussion regarding the possible options for implementing a ward system within the City ensued. Councilmember Garfunkel stated he thought it important for true ward representation to be established as soon as possible. Mayor Love stated the most expedient method of doing so would include an option for . election of all Councilmembers in the November 2002 election. Councilmember Lizee stated she thought it important to have ward representation soon, but cautioned against immediate implementation, as stability in representation for the Council could be lost. Councilmember Turgeon agreed, noting there were projects occurring within the community in the remainder of the year that would make it imperative to have continuity in Council representation. Councilmember Zerby stated he was a bit concerned for utilization of two-year terms on the Council, as he believed it was difficult to accomplish a variety of tasks in such a short period of time, and he believed it would be frustrating for those councilmembers. Mayor Love stated he could see the merits of implementation as soon as possible as well as the merits of phasing a ward system into place with full ward representation in place by 2006. He stated a variety of possibilities had been discussed, and he thought it important to give the issue further consideration at a later date. Administrator Dawson noted a Public Hearing was scheduled for April 8, 2002, regarding this matter. In addition to a notice in the Newsletter and legal paper, individual notices would be sent to all City residents regarding this public hearing. . Lizee moved, Zerby seconded, adjourning the Work Session Meeting of March 11, 2002, at 6:53 P.M. Motion passed 5/0.

She reviewed many of the events planned to celebrate the 10gth consecutive Fourth of July event, noting enhancements were being planned such as a Picnic Basket Auction and a post- fIreworks event on center stage to help slow the egress of traffIc from the Commons area in Excelsior. She stated all fIve South Lake Minnetonka member cities were being asked to consider making contributions to the celebration. Councilmember Zerby stated it was exciting to learn traffIc circulation patterns were being examined and . enhanced as part of the celebration for this year. Councilmember Lizee stated a great deal of effort and hard work went into planning forthis celebratory event as it had grown over the years. She stated it was an event for the entire South Lake Minnetonka community to enjoy, and she would like to see this year's contribution increased by $500 from years past. Lizee moved, Turgeon seconded, contributing $2000 from the City of Shorewood to the Excelsior Chamber of Commerce 4th of July Event.

Motion passed 5/0. C. Recommendation of Appointments by Hennepin County Board of Commissioners to the Riley-Purgatory Bluff Creek Watershed District Board of Managers . Administrator Dawson explained two positions on the Riley-Purgatory-Bluff Creek (RPBC) Watershed District Board of Managers would be expiring on July 30, 2002. He noted RPBC had jurisdiction in the southeastern Shorewood and included, for example, Christmas Lake. Administrator Dawson stated Susan Scribner, Minnetonka, and J. Perry Forster, Eden Prairie, were currently managers and wished to continue their service on the RPBC Board of Managers. He also explained Council could forward subsequent nominations to the County Board, provided it did so by May 28, 2002, City Council Meeting.

Mayor Love stated Hennepin County Commissioner Steele had indicated support for the project, noting she was anxious to see the project kept on schedule. . 3. Fertilizer Legislation Administrator Dawson reported phosphorus fertilizer legislation had successfully passed in the State Senate. He noted a change had been made to the legislation in the legislative process in that restrictions would not be placed on the sale, but on use. He anticipated this legislation, if enacted, would force makers of fertilizer to produce phosphorus-free fertilizer. He believed proposed legislation would be heard on the House floor next week. Mayor Love stated there seemed to be strong agreement in the Legislature that a problem existed regarding use of phosphorus fertilizer. He stated there might be an impact to sales in three years as a result of proposed legislation. 4. Update on East Side Fire Station Administrator Dawson reported a Task Force had been established regarding finding a location for the . East Side Fire Station in the Deephaven area.

A Resolution Regarding Traffic Safety Concerns along Highway 7 Administrator Dawson stated comments had been received from Councilmembers and other residents regarding making an official request for the Minnesota Department of Transportation to take action to improve safety in the vicinity of the Highway 7 and Highway 41 intersection. He indicated members of the Chanhassan City Staff were also in agreement with Shorewood Staff regarding making a joint recommendation to MnDOT regarding additional safety measures for this intersection. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES March llt 2002 Page 5 of 6 Mayor Love stated there was use for another traffic signal on Highway 7, especially at the Church Road! Minnewashta Parkway intersection with Highway 7. He stated this placement would allow for traffic to be quieted in that area. At this point in time, MnDOT had indicated there was not enough traffic in that immediate area to warrant additional signaling. Counci1member Turgeon questioned the justification required by MnDOT to warrant further consideration of additional efforts for traffic calming measures in that area. Administrator Dawson responded traffic was examined proceeding through the intersection. In addition, secondary roads feeding into the area would not indicate high enough levels of traffic to warrant further attention from MnDOT. He stated accident history was not typically the overriding factor for MnDOT, and one mile spacing between traffic signals was utilized. Counci1member Lizee stated she had spoken with representatives of the Minnetonka School District that would be very interested in supporting j oint efforts with local municipalities to make MnDOT aware of the needed changes in the area. . Mayor Love stated he believed pressure was put on the intersection of Highway 7 and Highway 41 as a result of speed, pressure, and tension of drivers moving from the west to east on Highway 7.

Bonnie Burton, Finance DirectorlTreasurer ~ Craig W. Dawson, City Administrator ~ Computer Maintenance Agreement To: From: . Issues As the Council is aware, the city's computer network failed recently and the server had to be replaced. The City contacted the Geek Squad for emergency services and in conjunction with their recommendations, purchased a new Dell network machine. The Geek Squad performed the installation and the system is now humming along quite nicely, with just a few small items to be attended to. . Staff is extremely pleased with the work the Geek Squad performed and would like to continue the relationship in the form of a preventative maintenance agreement. The Geek Squad estimates that 4-hours per month. should be sufficient and these visits would be regularly scheduled in advance. The benefit of such an agreement is that it is a pro-active approach to computer problems with an emphasis on prevention, including a detailed inventory of all hardware and software, and a written disaster analysis and recovery plan. The Maintenance Agreement cost is $500 for a 4-hour monthly visit or $4,500 for the period April 1 to December 31,2002. This is a competi,tive rate and there is an advantage to having the group who installed the network also maintain it. The City Council indicated that it supported obtaining a computer maintenance agreement in order to reduce computer downtime and to free City staff to do the important work they were hired to do. Recommended Council Action Staff recommends that the Council authorize the expenditure of approximately $4,500 from the Public Facilities/Office Equipment Fund for a Computer Maintenance Agreement with the Geek Squad for the remainder of 2002. ft ~J PRINTED ON RECYCLEO PAPER #JD 1He. l.Dc.c.K l:ll.l.UAU J. .G.IQt:5 -,,+= ;;::n::)STlrU 1'Jor .&ow' 11(.I"- 4Jwiii ..,.....foJIII I. ___ Maintenance Agreement .

FROM: Brad Nielsen DATE: 22 March 2002 RE: Ball Field Improvements - Freeman Park FILE NO.: I 405 (parks - Freeman) This is to document the work that South Tonka Baseball is authorized to perform at Freeman Park, per our on-site meeting yesterday. Based upon the Park Commission's direction, you will: 1. Replace the chain link top of the Field 3 batting cage with netting similar to the cages on Field 2. . 2. Place safety tubing on the top rail of the outfield fences (as your budget allows). You will attempt to locate green tubing. Otherwise a blue similar to the scoreboard will be used. 3. Installwarning tracks for Fields 2 and 3, under Larry Brown's supervision, after road restrictions. You agree to correct any damage that may occur to the irrigation system. I suggest you contact Larry as early as possible once the snow is gone (it should be by July!) to schedule an on-site meeting with him. 4. Replace the chain link mesh on the end ofthe Field 3 batting cage and install a bottom rail to hold the chain link in place. 5. Fill in chain link mesh on the south end of the third base dugout and the west end of the first base dugout on Field 1. ft ~., PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER 1t3e Memorandum Re: Park Improvements 22 March 2002 6. Install tension wires at the bottom of the fencing ofthe batting cage at Field 2. 7. Remove the temporary scorers booth behind the Field 2 backstop. Future use of this type of structure at tournament time will require Park Commission approval. 8. Install taller steel poles along the third base side ofField 2 for future awning (awning subject to revised CUP). 9. Extend steel poles on third base side ofField 2 between backstop and batting cage and install netting to contain foul balls. We will: 1. Schedule a public hearing for the May Planning Commission to discuss revising the CUP to allow awnings over the dugouts at Fields 1 and 2 instead of the roof structures previously approved. Since the Planning Commission will no doubt rely on the Park Commission's input, we will also schedule this for formal Park Commission recommendation at one of their April meetings. . 2. Design some type of directional signage for the south and north entries to the Park at Eureka Road, in conjunction with the closing of the Highway 7 access. This will likely be similar to DNR brown signs with off white lettering. 3. Determine where a scoreboard can be located on Field 1, using survey information on file at City Hall. Based upon that location (at least five feet from any property line), you will return to the Park Commission with a plan showing the size and design. Based on the Commission's recommendation, you will apply for a sign permit from the City Council. 4. Place this memorandum on the City Council's consent agenda for 25 March, since Council approval of certain items was suggested. . Thank you submitting a detailed project list and for taking the time to meet with me on the site. It is always useful to see where the actual work will take place.

DISCUSS LITTLE LEAGUE REQUESTS FOR IMPROVEMENTS Chair Arnst introduced Gordon Lindstrom, stepping in for Brian Tichy, of South Tonka Baseball to share the attached STBB requests for Freeman Park projects 2002. Freeman Park Repairs: (Refer to the attached list for item numbers) In reference to items #1 and #2 STBB will pay for the repairs. Meyer moved, Bartlett seconded, recommending STBB move forward with the replacement chain link fence on top of the backstop for field #1 and the fencing repair near both dugouts of field #3. Motion passed 5/0. . #6A REGULAR PARK COMMISSION MEETING March 12, 2002 Page 2 of 6 Improvements for Freeman Park: (Refer to attached Item #'s) Based on the recommendation of Engineer Brown, items #1 and #6, which extend the chain link height for field #1 and the installation of colored tubing on top of all field fencing, were moved to the Improvements by Permit section of the Project page. As a safety measure, there was no objection to the installation of tubing, however, color was an issue. The Park Commission agreed that no bright colors would be acceptable and that STBB would need to work with staff to find a suitable shade. Items #2 through #5 were discussed next. Item #2, installing a bottom bar along the fence on field one; item #3 installing warning track along the fence on fields #2 and #3 to prevent injury (but using caution to keep clear of sprinkler heads in the track line); item #4 installing seed and straw in the infield foul territory of field two; and item #5 removing the old chain link fence on top of the batting cage and replacing it with netting instead for field three. Palesch moved, Young seconded, that the Park Commission recommends to staff their support for STBB to complete items #1 and #6 with staff approval and CUP. Meyer amended the motion to include that STBB work closely with staff to coordinate items #2 - #5 . under Freeman Park Improvements in order for them to go to Council. Palesch seconded the Motion. Motion passed 5/0. Brown recommended that a sketch be provided to staff regarding item #4 of Improvements before any work is done. Meyer moved, Palesch seconded, that item #4 be amended to include a drawing be submitted to staff prior to the work being done. Motion passed 5/0. Chair Arnst made it clear to Mr. Lindstrom that STBB must work with the City Engineer on the Sprinkler head issue in regard to Item #3. Engineer Brown suggested that he and STBB go for a walk to examine the potential placement issues. Chair Arnst then asked whether STBB would accept responsibility for any damage to sprinklers that might occur in regards to the warning track. Mr. Lindstrom indicated that yes STBB would accept responsibility for damage and fix it. He added that STBB would also be willing to join Engineer Brown for a walk of the fields prior to installing the warning track. . Freeman Park Improvements by Permit: (Refer to the attached Item #'s) As the discussion moved into the Improvements by Permit section, Chair Arnst pointed out to Mr. Lindstrom that the Park Commission is currently reviewing its Park Master Plans for each Park, which may impact some of the requests made by STBB. She cautioned him that the Commission may be hesitant to make certain improvements to the parks before it has been truly determined what each master plan will look like. Mr. Lindstrom explained item #1, using tarps similar to those used on field #2 for the dugout roofs on field # 1. He indicated that they already own the green tarps and would like to use them for weather protection. It was determined that this could potentially require a CUP and staff would need to check with Planning Director Nielsen. Mr. Lindstrom pointed out that item #2, the installation of a new electronic scoreboard on field # 1, would be consistent with the one used on field #3. Engineer Brown indicated that a CUP would be required, as well as, the installation of a permanent underground wire running to the scoreboard. He voiced his concern over the proposed placement of the scoreboard due to potential issues with adjacent property owners. Chair Arnst felt REGULAR PARK COMMISSION MEETING March 12, 2002 Page 3 of 6 it necessary to table the item based on the proximity to neighboring properties. She asked staff and STBB to research the property line and clarify its position before any more discussion on this item continues. Item #3, extending the poles and adding the netting on the 1 st base side of field #2 would merely require a fencing permit. Item #4, extending the poles on the 3rd base dugout to allow for tarps was tabled due to the previous denial for a variance by the Planning Commission and potential issues with the adjacent property owners. Chair Arnst recommended that this issue be sent to Director Nielsen for review and a written opinion be provided to the Commission and scheduled for discussion on its April agenda. . Item #5, which would require a CUP, was tabled. Mr. Lindstrom described the temporary scorer's booth that exists on field #2 and the role it, and the P.A. system, plays attoumament time. Commissioner Meyer asked if STBB holds a permit for that structure. To which, Mr. Lindstrom replied they do not. Engineer Brown also noted that P.A. Systems in the parks are not allowed. After some discussion, the Park Commission agreed that before any consideration be given to allowing a permanent scorer's booth, the existing temporary non- permitted structure must be removed. Meyer questioned the ne.ed for a permanent scorer's booth, another structure, used only during tournament time. Brown reiterated to STBB that the Commission would not be receptive to looking at any improvements until the structure that is there without permit is removed, as well as the P.A. system, and STBB follows the appropriate channels to acquire a permit. Mr. Lindstrom, while deferring to Mr. Tichy, believed that the intent was to remove the structure when not in use and store it for tournament time. Chair Arnst affirmed that the existing structure be removed, not stored in the park, and that STBB come back to talk about a permit at that time. Item #6, allowing for seasonal sponsor banners at all fields was tabled. Lindstrom maintained that baseball is expensive and it would be beneficial to offer this opportunity to sponsors. He added that Bennett Park offers this as a way to generate revenue. Referring to a memo from Director Nielsen, Chair Arnst pointed out that not only would a sign permit be required, but also changes to the City Sign Ordinances and six different zoning codes would need to be made. Palesch believed that the City has strong feelings over advertising in their public parks and she could not support such an endeavor. Bartlett agreed. Young, however, stated that he didn't want to close the door to advertising if an organization would like to pursue it. . Palesch moved, Young seconded, to accept item #1 and allow the use of tarps on field #1 with the approval of Planning and the required CUP. Motion passed 5/0. Young moved, Bartlett seconded, that tile Commission recommends that the fencing permif for item #3 be granted. Motion passed 5/0. Lindstrom stated that he was unsure whether items #7 and #8, which involved bright orange seasonal outfield fencing and seasonal batting cages, were being pursued by STBB at this time. Chair Arnst pointed out that, having already reviewed Cathcart Park's Master Plan, the Commission could not support these requests. The Park Commission stated that the park is already at capacity and that they would like to keep it the neighborhood park that it is. With that in mind, the Commission believed that Cathcart Park should remain a little league park for now. Shorewood Funded Improvements were the next projects examined by the Commission. Chair Arnst noted that she had already discussed with Brian Tichy the improbability of item #1 occurring. Currently, the City is working to blacktop the parking lot and experiencing mitigation problems with the Watershed, therefore it is unlikely the pathway will be blacktopped any time soon. She stated that the City REGULAR PARK COMMISSION MEETING March 12, 2002 Page 4 of 6 needs to work out the parking lot issues as its first priority. Brown stated that item #2, grass seed and straw for fields #1 and #2 would be possible. In reference to item #3, the spigot at the concession stand, will not happen according to Engineer Brown. Brown stated that without sanitary sewer, the health department won't allow it. Lindstrom said that concessions have been bringing in water to make coffee, clean-up, etc. but questioned if any solution was viable. Brown stated that he wished he could solve the problem, but other than installing costly sanitary sewer, it was unlikely. Palesch moved, Young, seconded, recommending the City seed/straw the grass area between field #1 and #2 in August. Motion passed 5/0. It was agreed that a list of outcomes to the evening's discussions be shared with Brian Tichy, the designated STBB contact, as soon as possible. 6. DISCUSS OPTIONS FOR REVIEWING SCHEDULING PLAN FOR 2003 Chair Arnst recommended that a special work session regarding park management and a scheduling plan for 2003 be set up. It was agreed that March 26, at 7 PM would be the brainstorming session. . 7. CONCESSION STAND PROPOSAL Engineer Brown introduced staff person Twila Grout to share the Concession Stand proposal. After much research, Twila has found that running concessions can be quite a profitable endeavor for a City. She stated that after speaking to many Company's and Cities, she believes the City can run its own operation, hire its own part time employees, purchase the equipment, and obtain copies of team schedules in order to run the Concessions roughly May to October. Brown concurred, stating that having someone else run the concessions poses logistical problems, as well as, less profit to the City. He stated that while Charlie Davis would run the inventory, what's needed is for him to put together a mini-business plan. Brown indicated that while some investment up front will be necessary and he needs to talk to the health department about their requirements, the profit margins are amazing. . Chair Arnst voiced her support stating that the City will know not only the mechanics of the operation but will realize the profits as well. Palesch stated that she believed if we have the people willing to do it, let's do it, but perhaps on a smaller scale. Palesch moved, Bartlett seconded, that the Commission recommends to Council that staff moves forward and develop a business plan for Concessions at Eddy Station. Motion passed 5/0. Brown complimented Twila Grout on her initiative to research and make this project happen. Lizee added her support. She stated, as a parent who spends a great deal of time at Freeman Park, it would be nice to have food options available at the Concessions. 8. PARK MASTER PLANNING A. South Shore Community Park REGULAR PARK. COMMISSION MEETING March 12, 2002 Page 5 of 6 Young stated that he was impressed by how well used the park is and how clean the City is able to keep it. He added that the level of supervision the young folks have pleased him. Chair Arnst was pleased to state that this is one of the most well used parks in Shorewood. Brown reported that the burming and rule signage is not complete. He added that he will contact Ken Dallman and the American Legion to follow-up and check on the sign status. Landscaping will be completed after the signage. Lizee questioned whether fencing along Highway 7 had been proposed. It was determined that while the current emphasis of the park is a Skate Park, there is a large green space for people to picnic in. The population served focuses primarily on youth aged 0 -12 accompanied largely by adults and grandparents. No deficiencies were noted and many were pleased with its services. . In regard to recommendations for further action it was mentioned that: Fencing along Highway 7 be examined Burming, landscaping and signage be finalized Well/water service be pursued The green space remain green - as promised to neighbors, no further intensity of usage Keep equipment small for the youth Post the Rules sign ASAP 9. DISCUSS CONCEPT OF SATURDAY PARK TOURS FOR 2002. Chair Arnst gave a history of park tours, maintaining that while the to-do list portion has lost its importance, the need to reexamine the parks as we evaluate the Master Plans has not. Everyone seemed receptive to picking a Mayor June Saturday date to visit all the Parks at one time. 10. DISCUSS SETTING SECOND MEETING DATE FOR MAY May 29,2002 at 7:00 P.M. was chosen for a second meeting date in May. It was then agreed by all to move the meeting time for all regular and work sessions to 7:00 P.M., rather than 7:30P.M. 11. NEW BUSINESS . Brown reported that the City will be bringing in John Shardlow for a presentation on Saturday, April 27, 2002 from 9 AM- 2 PM at the South Shore Center.

DATE: Mayor and City Council Craig Dawson, City Administrator Larry Brown, Director of Public Works t March 22, 2002 TO: FROM: RE: Discussion Regarding Security System Eddy Station As directed, Staff sought out proposals for a video security system at Eddy Station. Three quotes were received for the project. Staff reviewed the property with all three security consultants. All agree that the north side of Eddy Station, the canopy area, and the main room should be observed. (refer to Attachment 1). These are the areas that are somewhat secluded, and have been vandalized previously. Under this scenario, 4 cameras and a digital recorder would be required. . One of the consultants suggested that an additional camera be placed on the building to monitor the north parking lot for vehicle activity; This certainly would be an advantageous. However, the recorders are typically set up for 4, 10, 12, or 16 cameras. The jump in the number of cameras above 4 drives the pricing of the system up considerably. One other option considered (not priced under the current proposals) is dial in monitoring from a remote site. Due to the increase in price, this option would only be practical if SLMPD desired to monitor the parking area, as described. It was the intent of Staff to present these proposals to the City Council for review and approval at this meeting. However, timing of receipt of the proposals did not leave adequate time to review the layouts with the South Lake Minnetonka Police Department (SLMPD). Therefore, Staff will present a formal action item at the April 8th City Council meeting once proposals have been reviewed with SLMPD. n ~.1 PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER #~B .--- I 0 I .

DATE: RE: Consideration of Concession Operations at Freeman Park Hand in hand with the Eddy Station building has been the concept of running a concession business from this building at Freeman Park. The "seasoned veterans" of the Park Commission are aware that the City is counting of concession revenue to pay for a portion of the capital outlay for the building. Not having a concessionaire operating out of Eddy Station is a negative impact for the budget of the building. . Over the past two seasons, City Staff has solicited. various vendors or organizations to run concessions at Eddy Station. To date, this has been to no avail. Therefore, Staff is proposing to bring the business in house. While the preliminary concept and operations have been discussed at length with the key Staff members that would be involved with this, final plans have not been compiled. At this point in time, the concept warrants the feedback of the Park Commission and City Council. While it is not the intent of this memorandum to layout all of the details that have been discussed, the primary operation would be conducted as follows: Operations . Twila Grout, Parks Secretary will schedule employees similar to what is being done with rink attendants . Charlie Davis, Parks Supervisor will manage the logistics of the building, equipment, and stocking of products and machines. . Funds collected at the close of the business day will be deposited in a drop safe. Mr. Davis will help track inventory versus sales. o PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER #fo~. Park Commission Mayor and City Council March 9, 2002 Page 2 of 2 Capital Outlay Staff has checked on typical products and requirements. In addition to the chips, candy and snacks, Staff is researching pricing and Minnesota Health Department requirements for the following: . Hot Dog roaster . popcorn machine . Soda dispensers . Refrigerator /freezer The Health Department has specific requirements of the facility and appurtenances, dependant upon . the types of products sold. These requirements are still being researched. Certainly there are pros and cons to the City bringing this type of operation in house. The pros are that the City will receive 100 percent of the profits. In addition, the employees conducting the business will be under the supervision of City Staff. Hopefully, this will minimize problems of the operation. The cons are that the City. will have to front the initial start up cost of the machinery and products. If approved in concept, Staff would return to the Park Commission and City Council with an abbreviated business plan showing the up front costs, loan payback schedules, and ll: forecast of revenue and expenditures. The action that is requested at this time is to provide feedback as to whether Staff should continue to develop the concession business plan for Eddy Station. Larry Brown will present this item at the . meeting and provide a framework of the issues in greater detail.

PUBLIC HEARING - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - PARKING LOT Applicant: Lake Fellowship Unitarian Church Location: 24575 Glen Road Chair Bailey opened the Public Hearing at 7 :00 P.M. He reviewed the procedures utilized in a Public Hearing, noting matters recommended for approval this evening would be placed on the March 25,2002, Regular City Council Meeting Agenda. Director Nielsen explained this request had been continued from a Planning Commission Meeting held January 15, 2002. He stated he had met with Mr. Scott Gauer, of Lake Fellowship Unitarian Church, in the past two weeks. Mr. Gauer had explained the Church Fellowship Board would like to have soil tests done on the property prior to making a decision to proceed with an application for variance. As a result, Director Nielsen recommended continuing the Public Hearing for 90 days with the understanding that the soil test be ordered in early May of this year thus, allowing application for a variance to be made in June if need be. Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 6, 2002 Page 2 of8 ~ Seeing no one present in the audience wishing to address this matter, Chair Bailey opened and closed the Public Testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 7:11 P.M. Woodruff moved, White seconded, recommending application for a variance, if needed, be made by June 4, 2002, and continuing the Public Hearing for a Conditional Use Permit to the first Planning Commission Meeting in July, 2002, for the Lake Fellowship Unitarian Church, 24575 Glen Road. Motion passed 5/0. 2. 7:00 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING - PRELIMINARY PLAT - OAK VIEW ESTATES Applicant: Z B Construction, Inc. Location: 6090 Chaska Road Director Nielsen explained the applicant for the property located at 6090 Chaska Road had submitted a preliminary plat. He explained a new plat would be presented at a later date, and the applicant was not present this evening due to conflicting commitments. He went on to explain the applicant proposed subdividing the property into three twinhome lots, with six units total for . the site. The property was zoned Single and Two-Family Residential and contained 2.52 acres of land. A single family home and two outbuildings currently occupy the site. The applicant proposed building three two-family buildings, each with its own unit lot. The project would be served by a cul-de-sac street, approximately 240 feet in length. Sanitary sewer was available to the property, but water would be supplied by individual wells. Director Nielsen then explained there were concerns regarding issues of land use and zoning, subdivision requirements, and Tree Preservation and Reforestation. With regard to land use and zoning, he explained certain lots were not in compliance with the City's minimum lot size requirements. In addition, corrections needed to be made regarding building setbacks for the project. With regard to the City's subdivision requirements, he noted significant concern for the proposed street design. While the proposed street complied with right-of-way width and cul-de- . sac diameters prescribed by Code, placement of the street needed further consideration. He then reviewed other necessary criteria and concerns for the City's subdivision requirements for this plat. In additiop, further recommendations were made regarding tree preservation and reforestation, as a plan had not yet been submitted addressing these areas of concern. As a result of lack of resolution regarding these numerous concerns, Director Nielsen recommended continuing this matter for 30 days, thus allowing the applicant to revise the plat to address these issues. Engineer Brown also explained his concerns regarding right-of-way, roadways and easements; watermain and sanitary sewer service; as well as proposed plans for grading and drainage as part of the preliminary plat submitted by the applicant. Specifically, he recommended the plat be revised to indicate the correct right-of-way designations for Chaska Road and Trunk Highway 41. Also, he recommended the developer and Professional Engineer should work with City Staff to resolve the alignment issues of the proposed cul-de-sac and Trunk Highway 41 as part of the preliminary plat process. House pad elevations and rear lot areas should be designed to maintain a longitudinal slope at a minimum of 2.0 percent. In addition, all easements on the plats should be delineated with regard to the type and dimension of the easement. Lastly, the typical section \ Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 6, 2002 Page 3 of 8 for the roadway should be modified in accordance with requirements set forth by City Staff. Engineer Brown also supported Director Nielsen's recommendation to continue this matter to the April 2, Planning.Commission Meeting. Elizabeth Bergland, 6125 Chaska Road, stated she was unsure of the plans for the property but noted concern for maintaining property values in her neighborhood as well as issues of safety regarding this project. She also noted concern for the treed area between the frontage road and Chaska Road. Director Nielsen explained the area with trees was to remain intact, as that parcel had been conveyed to the City in the past. Chair Bailey closed the Public Testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 7:34 P.M. . Commissioner Borkon stated she also had many questions and concerns with the preliminary plat for this project. Commissioner Woodruff agreed, noting there were many variables contingent on new design. Ms. Bergland stated she was concerned for the cut-through traffic from Highway 7 to Highway 41, and the high rates of speed associated with the increased volume on the roadway. Director Nielsen explained this project would increase volume on these roadways. Ms. Bergland questioned what could be done by the City to address her concerns. Director Nielsen explained a variety of options that could potentially reduce the speed in that area, and stated he would explore increased patrol opportunities with the South Lake Minnetonka Police Department for the roadway. Chair Bailey stated the planning process being utilized in this case could also help, in terms of design, to minimize concerns heard from residents and staff this evening. He also noted the property was zoned for Single and Two-Family Residential use so it would be likely that it would be developed accordingly at some point in the future. . Pisula moved, Borkon seconded, continuing the Public Hearing for Preliminary Plat Review to the April 2, 2002, Planning Commission Meeting for Z B Construction, Inc., 6090 Chaska Road. Motion passed 5/0. 3. 7:15 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING - SETBACK VARIANCE Applicant: Jeffrey Johnson Location: 5830 Club Lane Director Nielsen explained the applicant owned the property at 5830 Club Lane and had requested a 37- foot frontyard setback variance to build a three-car garage on the east end of the property. He further explained the property was zoned Single-Family Residential, was occupied by the applicant's house and a small shed. The property was bounded on the west and south by the Minnetonka Country Club golf course, on the east by Club Lane, and on the north by Single- Family Residential zoning areas. The proposed garage measured 24' x 32' and contained 744 square feet of area. Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 6, 2002 Page 4 of8 ) Director Nielsen then reviewed the applicant's request with regard to necessary criteria for approval of a variance. He explained the applicant was required to demonstrate hardship, meaning that he or she would be unable to make reasonable use of their property without an exception to the law. He noted the applicant could build a garage within the buildable area of the lot, and noted two possible options for placement on the property that would be in compliance with City Code recommendations. He also noted the proposed garage provided no room for an adequate turn-around. As a result of these issues, he explained the variance was not recommended. Jeff Johnson, owner of the property, was in attendance and provided the Commission with photos related.to.his plans for the proposed garage. He stated he and his family had purchased their property in 1988. The house had been built in 1900, and he had removed the existing bam as it had deteriorated, and the driveway was placed immediately in front of the house. He explained he had removed the bam, brought in 300 feet of fill, and added 2500 square feet to the house over time. He stated the house was situated immediately adjacent to the golf course with views of the course in three directions. He also commented Club Lane was a very narrow road, . with people forced to turn around in his driveway. As a result, landscaping and trees had been removed on his property when people had utilized the driveway for turning around on Club Lane. He stated he knew there would be difficulties in placing a garage on the property but believed not having a garage constituted a hardship. He stated no other property owners were objecting to the proposed placement of the garage on the lot, and he could see no reason why the variance should not be allowed. With regard to Director Nielsen's options for placement of the garage, he explained the lot was small and the garage would be quite close to the house. Mike Clausen, 26165 Birch Bluff Road, asked for clarification regarding the required setback from the road. Director Nielsen stated the setback was designated at 50 feet, and the current proposed setback was 12 feet. Chair Bailey closed the Public Testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 7:53 P.M. . Commissioner Pisula stated he believed this to be a difficult issue for consideration, as he understood the applicant's point of view, and yet he believed it was the task of the Planning Commission to apply the law and make a recommendation to the Council. He was sympathetic to the applicant's desire for a view, and yet he was concerned for setting a precedent. Mr. Johnson stated his lot provided a very unique situation in that the lot was small and was situated on a dead end street. There were no other parties objecting to his plan, and the Minnetonka Country Club had issued a letter of support for his proposed plans for a garage. Deb Johnson, owner of the property, stated the site where the previously existing barn had been located posed liability issues for the golf course, and neighbors views would suffer as a result of utilizing that same placement for the proposed garage. She also questioned the age of the laws that were being applied to a house that was one hundred years old when other structures in her neighborhood were placed far closer to the road than the proposed garage. , \ Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 6, 2002 Page 50f8 Commissioner Woodruff stated she agreed with Commissioner Pisula in that this was a difficult issue to address. She agreed not having a garage constituted a hardship for the applicant, however, she also noted a garage could be placed on the property and still maintain the law. She suggested the applicant consider other options for placement of the garage. Commissioner Borkon questioned whether a two-car garage could be built on the property and the law maintained. Mr. Johnson responded it could but would not provide a solution for the variance issue. She stated she felt conflicted as she thought the nonconforming lot and lack of a garage constituted hardship in this case. . Although the applicants had purchased the house and lot knowingly, alternatives posed could potentially adversely impact the value of their property. . Pisula moved, Woodruff seconded, recommending denial of a Request for Variance for Jeff Johnson, 5830 Club Lane. Commissioner Borkon stated she wished for further discussion of this matter. Chair Bailey stated he recognized the lack of a garage would constitute a hardship and resale values could be affected in the future due to possible options for placement of the garage. However, he stated there were areas on the lot where the garage could be placed without the need for a variance. In addition, aesthetics and the opinions of the neighbors, while providing valuable information, could not be a reason to grant a variance. Commissioner Borkon stated she still believed the Commission was creating a new hardship by recommending building the garage elsewhere on the property. She questioned what other options were available to the applicant regarding the planning process. Director Nielsen stated one option was for the applicant to consider withdrawing the request . prior to being placed on the City Council Agenda for consideration of this matter. Motion passed 5/0. 4. 7:30 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING - C.U.P. FOR TWO HOUSES TEMPORARILY ON ONE LOT AND LOT LINE REARRANGEMENT Applicant: Michael Clausen Location: 26165 Birch Bluff Road Chair Bailey opened the Public Hearing at 8:15 P.M. Director Nielsen explained the applicant owned the property at 26165 Birch Bluff Road and had applied for a lot line rearrangement allowing him to swap property with his neighbor, Bill Schenkel, to the west at 26175 Birch Bluff Road. He also had requested a Conditional Use Permit that would allow him to keep the existing home on the property while he built a new home on the same lot. Upon completion of the new house, the existing house would be demolished. Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 6, 2002 Page 6 of 8 ) Both of the subject properties were zoned Single-Family ResidentiallShoreland. The southerly 62 feet of the Schenkel lot would be conveyed to Clausen. Clausen would then convey a 28-foot strip of land to Schenkel. With regard to the lot line rearrangement, Director Nielsen explained the proposed subdivision and combination of the property would result in the Schenkel property complying with the minimum lot area for the zoning district. It would also widen the lot to within three feet of the minimum lot width requirement. These improvements would also allow Mr. Schenkel to expand his house to the east at some future date. With regard to the request for Conditional Use Permit, Director Nielsen explained the tree preservation plan for the property, noting care would have to be taken during construction and demolition of the houses to protect one large maple tree located between the two structures. In addition, he explained the Zoning Code allowed the existing house to remain in place for six months from the date the building permit was issued. He noted the proposed house complied in all respects with the setback requirements for the zoning district, and the applicant needed to provide hardcover calculations maintaining a site maximum of 25 percent. Mike Clausen, owner of the property, was in attendance and noted concern for the six month . time limit regarding the teardown of the existing house should the new house not yet be finished. Jennifer Clausen, property owner, stated she and her husband would be building the new house, and she was also concerned for the six -month deadline regarding the removal of the existing house. Chair Bailey stated an extension could be granted if need be, however, he urged Mr. Clausen not to take the time limit lightly. Chair Bailey closed the Public Testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 8:26 P.M. Director Nielsen provided clarification to members of the Commission regarding the exact widths of the subject lots. Borkon moved, White seconded, recommending approval of a Conditional Use Permit, subject to staff recommendations, for Michael Clausen, 26165 Birch Bluff Road. Motion passed 5/0. . 5. 7:45 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING - ZONING CODE AMENDMENT - VOTING REQUIREMENTS ON ZONING ACTION Chair Bailey opened the Public Hearing at 8:28 P.M. Director Nielsen explained the history regarding the changes in laws for certain zoning actions. He noted the zoning code amendment would amend the City Zoning Code to comply with new voting requirements. He explained a simply majority would suffice in all zoning actions except in changing zoning designations of properties from Residential to Commercial. He then detailed specific wording changes to the Zoning Code for the Commission. As there was no one present in the audience wishing to address this matter, Chair Bailey opened and closed the Public Testimony portion ofthe Public Hearing at 8:35 P.M. Chair Bailey stated the Attorney General's interpretation of the state statute with respect to the voting requirements, stunned him, noting the language in the statute seemed permissive. ,t t . . Planning Commission Meeting Minutes March 6, 2002 Page 7 of8 Pisula moved, Woodruff seconded, recommending approval of a Zoning Code Amendment for Voting Requirements on Zoning Actions. Motion passed 4/0/1, with Bailey abstaining. 6. 8:00 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING - SHORELAND REGULATIONS AMENDMENT - LAKE LINDEN CLASSIFICATION Chair Bailey opened the Public Hearing at 8:40 P.M. Director Nielsen explained. an amendment was being considered to the City's Shoreland Regulations because the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) had inadvertently classified Lake Linden as a lake in the 1970' s~ The error had recently been corrected by the DNR, and as a result, was now being correctly classified as a wetland and would be protected as such. The proposed amendment would reflect this change in the City's regulations as well. Chair Bailey opened and closed the Public Testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 8:43 P.M., as there was no one present wishing to comment on this matter. Woodruff moved, White seconded, recommending approval of the Shoreland Regulations Amendment regarding the reclassification of Lake Linden as a wetland. Motion passed 5/0. . 7. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR There were no matters from the floor presented this evening. 8. DRAFT NEXT MEETING AGENDA Director Nielsen reviewed the proposed draft Agenda for the March 19, 2002, Planning Commission Meeting. He noted this meeting would have an Agenda including a Public Hearing regarding a Comprehensive Plan Amendment as well as issues pertaining to Rezoning, a Preliminary and Final Plat review, a Hardcover Variance request, and a Site Plan review for the Shorewood Village Shopping Center, 23680 Highway 7. He noted this matter had been continued from the February 19,2002, Planning Commission Meeting. 9. REPORTS A.

FROM: Brad Nielsen DATE: 28 February 2002 RE: Clausen, Michael- Lot Line Rearrangement and C.U.P. for Two Houses on One Lot (Temporary) FILE NO.: 405(02.04) BACKGROUND . Mr. Michael Clausen owns the property at 26165 Birch Bluff Road (see Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached). He has applied for a lot line rearrangement allowing him to swap property with his neighbor (Bill Schenkel) to the west at 26175 Birch Bluff Road. He also requests a conditional use permit that would allow him to keep the existing home on the property while he builds a new home on the same lot. Once the new home is completed, he will demolish the existing. Both of the subject properties are zoned R-1C/S, Single-Family ResidentiaVShoreland. The Clausen property contains approximately 58370 square feet of area, while the Schenkel property contains 18,600. The southerly 62 feet of the Schenkel lot will be conveyed to Clausen. Clausen will then convey a 28-foot strip ofland to Schenkel. The resulting lots are shown on Exhibit B. In addition to the proposed lot configurations, Exhibit B shows the location of existing homes on the two lots and the location of a new home proposed by Mr. Clausen. Elevations of Mr. Clausen's new home are shown on Exhibits C and D. A tree preservation plan is included on Exhibit E. n ~J PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER 7.A. Memorandum Re: Clausen Rearrangement and C.U.P. 28 February 2002 ANAL YSISIRECOMMENDATION A. Lot Line Rearrangement. At present the Schenkel property is substandard with respect to required area and width. The proposed subdivision and combination of property will result in the Schenkel property having 20,000 square feet, bringing it into compliance with the minimum lot area for the R-l CIS zoning district. It will also widen the lot to within three feet of the minimum width requirement. These improvements will allow Mr. Schenkel to expand his home to the east at some future date. . Pursuant to the Shorewood Subdivision Code, the applicants have provided legal descriptions for drainage and utility easements around the perimeter of both lots. Their attorney will incorporate the descriptions into deeds, including consents from any additional parties that may have an interest in the properties. Since no new lots are being created, park dedication fees and sewer charges are not required for this application. B. Conditional Use Permit. Shorewood recently approved an amendment to the Zoning Code allowing a second home to be placed on a lot while keeping an existing house for a specified period of time. The Code establishes criteria for granting such a request. Following is how Mr. Clausen's request will comply with the Code: . 1. Exhibit E contains a tree preservation plan for the property. Although two larger trees will be removed, the removal is a result of decay and not the location of the new home. Care will have to be taken during construction of the new home and the demolition of the existing home to protect one large maple tree located between the two. 2. The Zoning Code allows the existing home to remain in place for six months. Prior to release of the resolution approving the request, the applicant must provide a bid from a licensed contractor for the demolition of the existing home. Upon issuance of a building permit for the new home the applicant must provide a cash escrow or letter of credit for one and one-half times the amount of the bid to guarantee demolition of the existing house. 3. The proposed house complies in all respects with the setback requirements of the R-IC/S. The applicant must provide hardcover calculations showing that the site will not exceed the 25 percent maximum. Subject to the conditions contained herein, it is recommended that the applicant's request for a lot line rearrangement and C.U.P. be granted as requested.

(952) 474-3236 FAX (952) 474-0128. www.cLshorewood.mn.us. cityhall@cLshorewood.mn.us MEMORANDUM TO: Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council . FROM: Brad Nielsen DATE: 1 March 2002 RE: Johnson, Jeffrey- Setback Variance FILE NO.: 405(02.03) BACKGROUND Mr. Jeffrey Johnson owns the property at 5830 Club Lane (see Site Location map- Exhibit A, attached). He has requested a 37-foot front yard setback variance to build a garage on the east end of the property (see Exhibit B). . The property is zoned R-1A, Single-Family Residential, contains 21,780 square feet of area, and is occupied by Mr. Johnson's house and a small shed (shed not shown on survey). The property is bounded on the west and south by the Minnetonka Country Club golf course, on the east by Club Lane (then the golfcourse) and on the north by single- family residential. Mr. Johnson explains his request on Exhibit C, attached. Exhibits D and E illustrate the size ofthe proposed three-car garage and how it will look from the south. The garage measures 24' x 32' and contains 744 square feet of area. ANAL YSIS/RECOMMENDATION Criteria for the consideration of variance requests are set forth in Section 1201.05 Subd. 2.b. ofthe Shorewood Zoning Code. Essentially, the applicant is required to demonstrate "hardship" - that he or she is unable to make reasonable use of their property without and exception to the law. The hardship must be created by something physically unique no- t,J PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER 7-C~ Memorandum Re: Johnson, Jeffrey- Setback Variance 1 March 2002 about the property (e.g. bad soil, topography, etc.), it can not be economic in nature and it ,can be something that has resulted from the actions of the owner. A simple test of these criteria is whether or not the applicant can build the garage without a variance. Exhibits F and G illustrate how an older garage had been located on the property within the buildable area of the lot. This garage was demolished a few years ago and the driveway to it has been eliminated; Exhibit H shows at least two possible locations for a garage (one attached and one detached) that comply with the requirements ofthe Zoning Code. The applicant's proposed building footprint has been used in these illustrations. This clearly shows that a garage can be built in compliance with City codes. . Aside from not meeting the test for a variance, the proposed garage provides no room for an adequate turn-around. In locating a garage on this site, the driveway should be designed so as to allow cars to turn around on the site. There is no room for such a turn- around on Club Lane, which is already grossly substandard in terms of pavement and right-of-way width. The City has received complaints in this regard, claiming that traffic ends up backing up the narrow street, only to turn around in private driveways. The location ofthe applicant's garage should not be allowed to aggravate this problem. Based upon the preceding, approval of the variance is not recommended.

Request for varience to build garage @ 5830 Club Lane, Shorewood, MN. 1) This property is located at the end of Club Lane a narrow road which boarders the property of the Minnetonka Country Club. This farm home built in 1900 was the original property of most of the golf course and surrounding property. When the land was divided it was not setback from the traveled road as much as new homes are according to current building requirments. The lot boarders the golf course on three sides and sits only 52 feet from the street. To build a garage on any other side of the property other than the proposed site would depreciate the value because a driveway would have to be excavated thru the front of the yard that boarders the course. Because of these special conditions we have requested a variance. . . Exhibit C APPLICANT'S REQUEST NARRATIVE . ~ ',. .,........'...l...~.

RE: Zoning Text Amendment - Voting Requirements for Zoning Actions FILE NO.: 405 (Zoning - Sections 1201.04 and 1201.05) Approximately one year ago the state legislature amended the statutes relative to the voting requirements for zoning actions~ At that time staff presented the matter to the Council as a choice of whether to keep the supermajority vote requirement for rezoning, text amendments, conditional use permits and variances. The Council agreed . unanimously to keep the Zoning Code as is. Recently the Attorney General wrote an interpretation of the new statute that states that cities do not have a choice (see Exhibit A). The only area in the Zoning Code where a supermajority vote (4/5 in Shorewood) is required is where residential zoning is being changed to commercial. . While the Attorney General's opinion is not necessarily binding, the City Attorney advises that the courts would likely uphold theAG opinion. He advises us to amend the Zoning Code. A draft ordinance has been prepared for your consideration (Exhibit B). The proposed changes are highlighted in red with additions shown in italics and deletions shown in strikeouts. . The Planning Commission voted 4-0-1 to approve the amendment. Chair Bailey abstained from voting stating that the opinion was a crappy interpretation of some crappy legislation. Staff and the Commission are in agreeinent with the Chair. If you have any questions relative to this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me prior to Monday night's meeting. Cc: Craig Dawson Tim Keane n ~~ PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER *7E .. ..J a..1t. I j 2m1- MUNICIPALITIES: ZONING: AMENDMENT: With certain exceptions, municipal zoning ordinances may be adopted or amended by majority vote of governing body notwithstanding charter provision, or ordinance requiring greater majority. Minn. Stat. ~~ 462.351,462.357. 59a-32 (Cr. Ref. 44lh; 477b-34) January 25, 2002 Mr. Brian D. Neugebauer Moorhead City Attorney . Ohnstad Twichell, P.C. 901 13th Avenue East P.O. Box 458 West Fargo, ND 58078-0458 Dear Mr. Neugebauer: . Thank you for your letter concerning the number of city council votes required to adopt or amend zoning ordinances. FACTS In 2001, the legislature amended Minn. Stat. ~ 462.357, subd.2 to reduce the necessary voting majority for adoption or amendment ofmost municipal zoning ordinances from two-thirds to a simple majority of all members of the governing body. The City of Moorhead, a home-rule charter city, has enacted a zoning .ordinance that requires a two-thirds council vote on all zoning issues in accordance with the previous state law. You ask whether a home-rule charter city may adopt a more restrictive 'Voting requirement than that required by state statute for adoption or amendment of zoning ordinances. OPINION . We answer your question in the negative. First, it is well established that local units of government have no inherent powers, but can only take those actions expressly authorized by statute .or home-rule charter or implied as necessary to carry out the powers expressly conferred. See, e.g., Borgelt v. City ofMinneapolis, 271 Minn. 249, 135 N.W.2d 438 (1965),' Alexander v. City of Minneapolis,' 267 Mint.!.. 155, 125 N.W.2d 583 (1963); City of Birchwood Village v. Simes, 576 N.W.2d 458 (Minn. Ct. App. 1998). Authority for municipalities to enact land use controls, including zoning ordinances, is expressly provided by Minn. Stat. ~~.462.3S I, .et seq. See, e.g., Alexander. . Prior to 200 I, Minn. Stat. ~ 4562.3 57, subd. 2 (2000) authorized adoption or amendment Qf zoning ordinances only by a two~thirds vote of all members of the governing body. According to the facts provided, the Moorhead zoning ordinance is consistent with that Exhibit A .. Mr. Brian D. Neugebauer January 25, 2002 Page 2 requirement. It appears that two-thirds voting requirement in the ordinance was based solely upon the provisions of section 462.357, subd.2 (2000). As you have noted, however, the legislature, by the Act of May 29, 2001, ch. 207 ~ 13, 2001 Minn. Laws 849, 854, amended that subdivision as follows: . Subd. 2. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS. .w At any time after the adoption of a land use plan for the municipality, the planning agency, for the purpose of.carrying out the policies and goals of the land use plan, may prepare a proposed zoning ordinance and submit it to the governing body with its recori:unendations' for adoption. fk) Subject to the requirements of subdivisions 3, 4 and 5, the governing . body may adopt and amend a zoning ordinance by a maioritv vote of all its members. The adoption or amendment of anv portion of a zoning ordinance which changes all or part of the existing classification of a zoning district from residential to either commercial or industrial requires a two-thirds maioritv vote of all members of the governing body. (e) The land use plan must provide guidelines forthe timfug and sequence of the adoption of official controls to ensure planned, orderly, and staged development and redevelopment consistent with the land use plan. (Underlined material added by amendment.) Therefore, after the effective date of the 2001 amendment, there appears no remaining statutory authority for imposition of a two-thirds voting requirement for municipal zoning enactments other than those changing residential classification to commercial or industrial. Rather, a majority of the members of each city council is statutorily authorized to adopt or am~nd zoning ordinances. . Second, the fact that the statutory language is permissive in nature does not authorize the city to impose conditions or restrictions at variance with those expresslyprovided.by statute. Cj RES Investment Co. v. County of Dakota, 494 N.W.2d 64 (Minn. Ct. App. 1992) (County board did not have authority to impose limits on their own statutory jurisdiction to consider tax. abatement applications). Nor may a council, by ordinance, impair or divest its successors' legislative power. See, e.g., Minneapolis Street Railway Co. 'V. City of Minneapolis, 229 Minn. 502,40 N.W.2d 353 (1949) (Municipal corporation cannot, by contract, surrenderor curtailpolicepower); Hanna v. Rathje, 171 N.W.2d 876 (la. 1969) (City zoning ordinance could not impair successors' authority to amend); 4, Mcquillin, Municipal Corporations ~ 13.03.15 (3rdEd.). . Mr. Brian D. Neugebauer January 25, 2002 Page 3 Finally, it is our opinion that the statutory provision for enacting or amending zoning ordinances by a majority vote supercedes any contrary provision that might be found in a city's charter. Pursuant to the Constitution,' the legislature has granted city residents substantial authority to adopt home-rule charters, to empower and direct the governance of their cities and to provide for city legislation on matters of municipal concern. See Minn. Stat. fi 410.07 (2000) State ex tel Town of Lowell v. City of Crookston, 252 Minn. 526, 91 N.W.2d 81(1958). That grant of power does not, however, impair the ultimate power of the legislature to pre-empt local authority on matters it considers to be of statewide concern. Id., Lilly v. City afMinneapolis, 527 N.W.2d 107 (Minn. Ct. App. 1995). As to matters of zoning, the legislature has made clear its intent .that the provision of sections 462.351: et seq. should be followed, rather than any' conflicting local enactments. Minn. Stat. ~ 462.351 specifically states: . . It is the purpose of sections 462.35 1 to 462.364 to provide municipalities, in a single body of law, with the necessary powers and a uniform procedure for adequately conducting and implementing municipal planning. . Furthermore, section 462.352 defmes the term municipality for purposes of sections 462.351 to 462.364 to mean, "any city, including a city operating under a home rule charter..." F or the foregoing reasons, it is our opinion that Minn. Stat. fi 471. 3 57, subd. 2 (Supp. 2001), authorizing adoption or amendment of certain zoning ordinances by a majority of all members . of the governing body, prevails over inconsistent municipal ordinances or charter provisions. This reasoning is consistent with that reached in Gp. Atty. Gen. 59A-32, October 13, 1955, which determined that the statutory requirement for a two-thirds vote to amend a zoning ordinance prevailed over inconsistent provisions in a city charter and ordinance.

Dawson, City Administrator ^ ". . March 21, 2002 vy Dakota Rail-to- Trail Conversion . The Dakota Rail line, which runs from Wayzata along the north shore of Lake Minnetonka and on to Hutchinson, has been acquired recently by the Hennepin County Regional Railroad Authority (HCRRA). It is possible that tlus trail could be converted to a recreational trail, at least as an interim use until the HCRRA might determine that it should be rehabilitated for regular rail or light rail tr~portation. In recent weeks, there has been some controversy about this possibility. Notably, the City of Minnetonka Beach has taken an official position that it would not support a recreational trail on this right-of-way; a bike/pedestrian trail would need to be designated on city streets. Senator Oliver and Representative Workman subsequently introduced bills that would preclude this trail conversion within Minnetonka Beach. . The City of Shorewood supports trails and trail opportunities for the Lake Minnetonka community. One of the findings of the visioning process is the high value and importance that residents place on the Southwest LRT Regional Trail. It is a transportation system that extends the sense ofa unique community across city boundaries. The possibility of a regional recreation trail along the Dakota Rail line would be an extension of the goals of accessibility to and around Lake Minnetonka. As such a regional recreational trail is consistent with the values of the City of Shorewood, a resolution has been prepared for the Council to state its support for the rail-to-trail conversion on the Dakota Rail line. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Council adopt the Resolution supporting the designation of a regional recreation trail on the Dakota Rail line. $8A n ~" PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER CITY OF SHOREWOOD RESOLUTION NO. 02 - A RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE PRESERVATION AND USE OF THE DAKOTA RAIL RIGHT-OF-WAY AS A CONTINUOUS TRANSPORTATION CORRIDOR, AND SUPPORTING ITS CONVERSION TO A REGIONAL RECREATION TRAIL WHEREAS, the Dakota Rail right-of-way is a beautiful, unique, and valuable transportation corridor that serves the area from Wayzata to Hutchinson; and WHEREAS, the Dakota Railroad corridor has been purchased by the Hennepin County Regional Railroad Authority (HCRRA); and WHEREAS, the HCRRA is evaluating the financial feasibility of restoring freight rail service . on the corridor, including specifically the cost of infrastructure improvements and repairs necessary to make the corridor safe and efficient for freight rail service; and WHEREAS, the Dakota Railroad is in a state of severe deterioration and any future use of the corridor for freight rail service will require the expenditure of a significant amount of public funds for rehabilitation of track, bridges, drainage facilities, and other infrastructure; and WHEREAS, the Dakota Railroad is an established transportation corridor, and reuse ofthe corridor should consider the broadest definition of transportation; and WHEREAS, the possibility of selling right-of-way to owners of adjoining properties would remove the transportation corridor; and WHEREAS, past sales of portions of real estate within the corridor by rail operators has . unnecessarily diminished the usefulness ofthis unique "east-west" corridor along the north shore of Lake Minnetonka for future public transportation uses; and WHEREAS, the use of the Dakota Railroad corridor as a continuous recreation trail is in the public interest because pedestrians and cyclists using the corridor, including specifically youths, will not be exposed to the hazards associated with mixing pedestrians and bicycles with motorized vehicular traffic on a single corridor; and WHEREAS, the preservation of the Dakota Rail right-of-way as a continuous corridor is essential to enable the corridor to serve effectively the current and future transportation needs ofthe area; and WHEREAS, the Dakota Rail corridor provides connection between the cities on the north and west shores of Lake Minnetonka, as well as opportunities for connections with cities on the south side of Lake Minnetonka; and . . WHEREAS, the Dakota Rail corridor can provide pedestrian and cycling transportation options that can help relieve traffic pressure and provide them a safe transportation alternative, NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Shorewood, that: 1. The City of Shorewood is opposed to the rehabilitation of the corridor for renewed use as a freight railroad; 2. The City of Shorewood is opposed to any further sale by the HCRRA of real estate parcels lying within the railway corridor; 3. The City of Shorewood supports conversion of the continuous corridor in Hennepin County for use as. a regional recreation trail and, if a trail is constructed, the City opposes any diversion of expected pedestrian and cycling traffic onto existing County or local roadway rights-of-way.
