4. 7:00 p.m. PUBLIC HEARING
Consider a Resolution to Establish a Shorewood Economic Development Authority (SEDA)
Acting Mayor Garfunkel opened the Public Hearing at 7:09 P.M.
Administrator Dawson reviewed the history of this resolution explaining the Council had, at prior work .
sessions, discussed the possibility of creating a Shorewood Economic Development Authority (SEDA).
As required by statute, a public hearing was part of the process establishing the SEDA. Notice of this
Public Hearing appeared in the August 15 and 22, 2001, issues of the City's official newspaper. Further,
he noted the most immediate action of the SEDA, if established, would be to act as a financing entity for
the public safety facility(s) to be built at 24140 Smithtown Road. The first meeting of the proposed
SEDA would tentatively be scheduled for October 8, 2001.
Julie Scheurer, 26930 Edgewood Road, questioned whether the City would be educating the citizenry
regarding this matter. She stated she was concerned the efforts made thus far were inadequate in
explaining the impact this would have on taxes for residents. She believed a formation of an EDA would
increase taxes for city residents and expressed concern that a fundamental change was being made in the
City's taxing authority without adequate notification being made to the public.
Finance Director Burton explained that while a SEDA would have levying authority, no levies had been
planned for at least the next two years.
Acting Mayor Garfunkel stated the Council was comprised of citizens whose role was to represent other
citizens in decision making for the City. He explained that while in that role, he was acting in, what he
believed to be, the best interest of all City residents. Furthermore, City residents would not want him to
educate them upon every single issue brought before Council. In addition, notification was made to the
public in many instances in the past through various options, such as minutes of City Council meetings,
televised Council meetings, and notification through public newspapers of the Public Hearing.
.
Councilmember Zerby commented the impetus behind this decision was not additional taxation of
citizens, but financing the public safety facilities recommended by City staff.
Ms. Scheurer then asked the Council to postpone making a decision on this matter until the citizenry
could be educated via newsletter, articles, etc., in a fair manner. Council member Lizee stated she agreed
public notice had not been sent individually to residents; however, a number of front-page articles had
appeared in the local newspapers in addition to the methods of notification previously discussed.

Page 3 of 11
Finance Director Burton invited Ms. Scheurer to meet with the City Attorney, City Administrator, and
herself in effort to adequately explain the matter. Acting Mayor Garfunkel thanked Ms. Scheurer for her
comments.
Seeing no others present wishing to address Council on this matter, Acting Mayor Garfunkel closed the
public testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 7:21 P.M.
Council member Turgeon questioned Finance Director Burton regarding the benefits of forming a SEDA.
Finance Director Burton explained there were many benefits regarding this formation. The top priority of
the SEDA, if established, would be the financing of a new fire facility. She stated there were five cities
that would need to finance the proposed public safety facility on Smithtown Road. In an effort to
simplify matters, one city would often act as lead in financing. She further explained the SEDA would
issue bonds, like a construction mortgage, with the debt to be repaid at a later date.
Administrator Dawson explained a levy would not be patt of the plans for this facility, as the debt would
be repaid by member cities' general city levy. He stated an EDA was the entity allowed and preferred by
statute for financing public safety facilities such as this one.
.
Lizee moved, Turgeon seconded, approving RESOLUTION NO. 01-050. "An Enabling Resolution
Establishing an Economic Development Authority Under Minnesota Statutes Sections 469.090 to
469.1081." Motion passed 4/0.
5. 7:15 p.m. PUBLIC HEARING
Discussion on Organized Refuse Collection
Acting Mayor Garfunkel opened the Public Hearing at 7:25 P.M.
Administrator Dawson explained the City Council was required by statute to hold a Public Hearing in
consideration of a resolution announcing the intent of Council to "organize" refuse collection. He noted
the Planning Commission had undertaken an effort to understand community sentiment on this matter by
providing a survey in the City newsletter and website. To date, approximately 270 surveys had been
tabulated regarding this matter.
.
Jeff Foust, 5000 Shady Island Point, stated this topic had come up approximately five years ago. With
five different trash haulers being present almost daily to service thirty homes, the Shady Island
Homeowners Association voluntarily agreed to contract with one hauler. He noted there were two of the
thirty property owners opting to work with other haulers, but overall, he deemed it a success.
Councilmember Zerby questioned Mr. Foust whether an increase or decrease in rates of service had been
accomplished in choosing one hauler for that area. Mr. Foust stated collective bargaining had not taken
place, however, he believed the City would most likely be able to negotiate as it was working on a larger
scale.
Gaylord Pahl, 5100 Anthony Terrace, stated he thought the idea of reducing the number of haulers due to
issues of road usage was valid; (and therefore more specialized) however, he was concerned for the
potential rate increase as a consequence of requiring smaller trucks to be utilized on City roadways. He
believed the cost results would be passed to the end user, and he wondered whether added increases
would occur to obtain a wider variety of services.

August 27, 2001
Page 4 of 11
Councilmember Turgeon stated these were valid questions that were being explored as part of the process
of study for organized refuse collection. She noted there were many possibilities and options to be
explored as well, making public input very important.
Councilmember Zerby stated there were many ways to approach this matter with a possible goal of trying
to decrease the number of trucks traversing City roadways. He explained the process being utilized per
state statute would define more specific options as well.
Julie Scheurer, 26930 Edgewood Road, stated she believed this matter to be a microscopic one, not really
worthy of consideration at this time. She requested the City separate residential services from
commercial services to avoid a subsidy. Further, she stated she was satisfied with her existing service.
She believed competition kept costs down, and she did not want the City to tell her which hauler to use
for her trash service. She was not sure where this issue came from, she believed winters enabled caused
most of the road condition problems, and she saw this as a non-issue.
Acting Mayor Garfunkel closed the Public Testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 7:35 P.M., noting
there was nothing preconceived in this study, and the topic required exploration, as per statute, in
consideration of this matter.
.
Director Nielsen then reviewed the following stages of the study for Council.
Acting Mayor Garfunkel stated the study was in the beginning stages, and the subject of refuse collection
had been discussed for many years. He noted the refuse trucks operated with exemptions to the weight
restrictions on City roadways in the winter.
Council member Lizee stated she was pleased the Planning Commission had considered this part of the
work plan for this year as much varied feedback had been gathered. Council member Turgeon stated
competition was part of the process, and she appreciated all survey responses.
Turgeon moved, Zerby seconded, to direct staff to prepare a Resolution Regarding an Intent to
Organize Refuse Collection. Motion passed 4/0.
6. PRESENTATIONS
A.
Presentation of A wards to Former Park Commissioner for Service on the Park
Commission
.
Acting Mayor Garfunkel expressed gratitude and presented an award to Paula Berndt for her time spent
working on the Park Commission over the past two years.
Ms. Berndt stated she was proud to receive the plaque from the City. She stated she enjoyed working
with the Park Commission, noting it was comprised of good people that worked well together. Also, she
noted she thought her work with the Commission provided her the opportunity to get inside the political
arena and voice her opinion as needed. She stated she had a learned a great deal and appreciated the time
spent on the Park Commission.
B. Report on Live Cablecasting from Jeff Foust, City Representative to the LMCC
Jeff Foust, City Representative to the Lake Minnetonka Cable Commission (LMCC), reported on LMCC
funding and other issues related to cable services for City residents.
.
.
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
August 27, 2001
Page 5 of 11
Councilmember Lizee questioned why the City had only a single cable provider. Mr. Foust explained the
current franchise agreement was non-exclusive; however, Mediacom was the only provider interested in
working in the area. He noted efforts had been made, such as having sixteen cities comprising the
LMCC, to generate interest in the area for cable providers. He also noted it seemed as though housing
density was an issue of concern for providers. Council thanked him for his report.
C. Lake Minnetonka Conservation District 2002 Budget Presentation by Tom
Skramstad
Tom Skramstad, Treasurer of the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD), made presentation to
Council regarding the proposed 2002 LMCD Budget. He noted financial capabilities had been examined,
and an increase in value of services had been received. He also noted there would be an approximate
$2500 increase in the City's contribution for the Year 2002, due to a number of factors. He noted the
LMCD Management Plan called for a Boat Density Study and a User Attitude Study to take place.
Typically these studies had been funded periodically as needed; however, funds would be allocated yearly
to avoid the shifts in contributions. In addition, he noted milfoil harvesting had been increased as well as
savings attained in labor this summer. He also noted reserve funds were being built up for the
Administration and EWM/Exotics programs.
Acting Mayor Garfunkel thanked him for his report and stated it was very helpful. Mr. Skramstad, in
response to Councilmember Zerby's question, explained the Gray's Bay Marina would become a public
boat launch in the future.
7. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
There was no one present wishing to present matters from the floor this evening.
8. PARKS
A. Report on Park Commission Meeting Held August 14, 2001
Commissioner Bix reported on matters considered and actions taken at the August 14, 2001, Park
Commission Meeting (as detailed in the minutes of that meeting).
Engineer Brown sadly reported there had been two acts of vandalism at Eddy Station recently. South
Lake Minnetonka Police had been notified and were investigating the incidents. In addition, he noted the
City would be investigating creative solutions for additional security measures at Eddy Station.
9. PLANNING
Commissioner Pisula reported on matters considered and actions taken at the August 21, 2001, Planning
Commission Meeting (as detailed in the minutes of that meeting).
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
August 27 t 2001
Page 6 of 11
A. Variance Request - Setback and Variance to Structurally Alter a Nonconforming
Structure
Applicant: James Russell
Location: 26080 Birch Bluff Road
Director Nielsen presented historical information relating to the request before Council. He noted there
had been an issue of struggle regarding continued use of the fire lane as a driveway when being
considered by the Planning Commission. He stated the Planning Commission had requested a right-of-
way permit be obtained for continued use of the fire lane as a driveway and with the provision that should
the house be torn down a new driveway would be placed in a compliant location on the site.
Mr. Bob Schaeffer, of Foundation Architects and representing Mr. Russell in this matter, noted the history
of the project seemed a bit strange in that Mr. Russell was working with a site that was non-compliant and
was trying to do the right thing according to City requests that appeared to be excessive.
Councilmember Turgeon stated she had a number of questions regarding this matter. She stated she had
been concerned regarding the driveway issue and had requested Engineer Brown and Director Nielsen
review the site again regarding the feasibility of adding a driveway in a compliant location. She reported .
Engineer Brown stated a driveway could be added on the sitewith a cross-culvert beneath the drive.
Councilmember Zerby stated the fire lane had been used as such for a number of years and having Mr.
Russell maintain the drive was somewhat useful to the City. He also stated Mr. Russell had agreed to
remove approximately forty percent of the driveway hardcover in an effort to be more compliant. He
stated he was comfortable with the use of the recommended permitting process, as it seemed an
acceptable use.
Council member Turgeon stated she was also concerned a precedent could be set by this case. In addition,
she was also concerned for what would happen to the property once Mr. Russell would no longer be the
owner. She could understand the proposal if there were no other options, but her suggestion was not to
prevent a driveway for the site but only make it compliant with zoning codes set forth by the City.
Councilmember Lizee agreed with Councilmember Turgeon, noting the property had the capability to
comply. She was concerned there could be potential difficulties in trying to track the right-of-way permit .
over time without a time limit being placed on the use.
Commissioner Pisula stated the Planning Commission had thought the permitting process was a way to
provide reasonable accommodation to Mr. Russell as the use was not going to change from the past fifty
years, and the City would be able to control the inconsistency when the property changed hands.
Administrator Dawson stated it was important to consider the impressions to the public so they would
know it was considered a fire lane and not think they would be trespassing on the property.
Chair Bailey of the Planning Commission was also in attendance and explained the Commission had not
had the benefit of the information presented by Engineer Brown this evening as part of its decision or
perhaps the outcome may have been different.
Engineer Brown commented there were a number of driveways in the City with "speed bumps" to avoid
water draining to a garage area. He noted with a cross-culvert and appropriate grading for drainage, water
in the garage area could be avoided.
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
August 27, 2001
Page 7 of 11
Councilmember Zerby stated he believed this recommendation to be a bit severe as a requirement to
fixing a house originally damaged by a tree during a storm.
Turgeon moved, Lizee seconded, approving the Setback and Variance Request to Structurally Alter
a Nonconforming Structure, subject to staff recommendations and the applicant be granted a right-
of-way permit for two years or until construction of a garage, which ever comes first, with a
driveway being built on the property directly off Birch Bluff Road, for James Russell, 26080 Birch
Bluff Road.
Council member Zerby stated he would like for Mr. Russell to be able to respond to these requests before
a formal decision was made.
.
Mr. Schaeffer stated he could speak on Mr. Russell's behalf in these proceedings. He stated he was
concerned with the excessive number of requests from the City throughout the history of this project. He
believed it a punishment to have to put in a driveway as a result of attempting to take charge of the
situation. He stated the drive was not affecting the property in any way, and its use was not changing. He
noted while a driveway could be placed on the property, it should not be required. He reiterated that the
Russells were trying to fix their roof and a number of requests had been issued from the City as a result.
Director Nielsen restated that the request for foundation changes had triggered the need for a variance.
He stated the roof could simply be fixed without the need for any additional requests from the City.
Discussion ensued regarding options for remedy of concerns of Council.
Motion failed 3/1, with Zerby dissenting, as four votes were needed for approval.
Zerby moved, Garfunkel seconded, to continue this matter until the September 10, 2001, Regular
City Council Meeting when Mr. Russell could be present.
Councilmember Zerby stated he believed this to be fair, and Mr. Russell deserved to be present prior to
formal decisions being made.
. Motion passed 3/1, with Turgeon dissenting.
B. Concept and Development Stage Plans for a Residential Planned Unit Development
Applicant: Lecy Construction
Location: 6185 Apple Road
Director Nielsen reviewed the background pertaining to this matter. He noted the applicants were
applying for a conditional use permit approving a planned unit development for the site. The applicants
had previously requested preliminary plat approval for this same site and were directed to respond to
issues raised by City staff and residents as a result of the Public Hearing portion of that approval process.
The revised plan before Council this evening still proposed four lots, but eliminated the public street,
clustered those proposed homes on the site and created an outlot over which a conservation easement in
favor of the City would be recorded.
Director Nielsen explained the applicant had now suggested an alternative driveway location to serve Lot
3. The City Engineer determined that the previously-proposed driveway acting as a shared drive to Lot 3
and 4 was a better solution. That proposal allowed for maximum sight-lines when utilizing the driveway.
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
August 27, 2001
Page 8 of 11
If necessary, the City Engineer would allow a widening of that shared drive with a separate drive
branching off to serve Lot 3. In this way, a protective covenant over the driveway serving Lot 4 would
still be maintained.
Also, Director Nielsen noted there would be significantly less site alteration with the revised plan. By
clustering the homes on smaller lots on the west half of the property, less grading and tree removal was
necessary, resulting in nearly one full acre less of site alteration. In addition, he noted the Planning
Commission had recommended suggested development agreements and protective covenants be
submitted in the final plan to return to the Planning Commission for final review before being submitted
to the Council for approval.
Director Nielsen also explained the project would be monitored very closely. Further, there were
remedies in place for failure to comply with tree protection fencing and funds would be held in escrow to
ensure protective measures took place.
Mr. Roy Lecy, owner and developer of the property, and Mr. Peter Knaeble, a civil engineer working with
Mr. Lecy, were in attendance and offered to answer any questions Council had.
Lizee moved, Turgeon seconded, approving the Concept and Development Stage Plans for a .
Residential Planned Unit Development with the Planning Commission having final review of these
plans for Lecy Construction, 6185 Apple Road. Motion passed 4/0.
C. Variance Request - Setback
Applicant: Gaylord and Monica Pahl
Location: 5100 Anthony Terrace
Director Nielsen reviewed information pertaining to the background of this request as well as how the
property complied with the City's variance criteria for rebuilding the center portion of the existing home
and building a deck on the home. He also noted there was no need to require additional greenspace for
this lot as it was heavily wooded and a conservation easement was being considered for the area.
Mr. and Mrs. Pahl were in attendance and offered to answer any questions necessary for Council.
Zerby moved, Lizee seconded, approving RESOLUTION NO. 01-051, "A Resolution for a Setback .
Variance for Gaylord and Monica Pahl, 5100 Anthony Terrace." Motion passed 4/0.
D. Variance Request - Setback and Variance to Structurally Alter a Nonconforming
Structure
Applicant: Scott Olson
Location: 6125 Ridge Road
Director Nielsen reviewed this request, noting the applicant had received setback variances in 1999 to
replace his home. The property was quite substandard with respect to shoreland management regulations,
and anything done to the lot would require a variance of some sort. The applicant wished to simply
enclose the lower level of the existing home, replace existing decks and build a new porch. The house
was currently being supported by a masonry wall on its west side and. a series of posts, beams and
footings that formed a sort of stilt construction. This structure was considered stable; however, it was
difficult to heat and the lower level was wasted space. Ex<;ept for the porch all work would be done
within the existing footprint of the building. In addition, this revised request required minimal site work.
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
August 27, 2001
Page 9 of 11
Mr. Olson was in attendance and noted he would be available for questions from Council.
Turgeon moved, Zerby seconded, approving RESOLUTION NO. 01-052, "A Resolution for
Setback and Variance to Structurally Alter a Nonconforming Structure for Scott Olson, 6125 Ridge
Road." Motion passed 4/0.
E. Licensing Ordinance - Massage Therapist
Director Nielsen explained a draft ordinance for licensing by the City regarding massage therapy. He
noted the ordinance would include licensing guidelines, definitions, and exceptions for this professional
service.
Councilmember Zerby questioned Attorney Keane regarding the required number of hours of course work
for this license. Attorney Keane explained the number of hours were recommended by a Therapeutic
Massage trade organization that promoted licensing in an effort to designate a standard of professionalism
for massage therapists.
.
Councilmember Turgeon questioned whether further liability insurance should be required for massage
therapists. Attorney Keane responded there were no statewide regulations regarding the insurance
designations for this profession; however, it would be reasonable to require additional liability insurance.
Zerby moved, Turgeon seconded, approving ORDINANCE NO. 373, "An Ordinance for
Therapeutic Massage Licensing," with an amendment to the ordinance to repair liability insurance
of at least $500,000. Motion passed 4/0.
F. Report regarding Interim Ordinance
.
Director Nielsen reported there would be approximately two to four commercial development sites in
Shorewood that could be affected by a moratorium as discussed at previous Council meetings. He noted
the property owner of the Shorewood Village Shopping Center had submitted a preapplication as part of
the planning process for the site to be considered at the October 2,2001, Planning Commission Meeting.
In addition, he stated there were areas of the Shorewood Zoning Code that could be strengthened over the
course of the next three months; however, the question regarding definition of community-scale could not
be determined in that timeframe and would not be completed as part of the Community Visioning
process.
Acting Mayor Garfunkel stated it appeared the City would have adequate tools and time to strengthen and
control development as the Code was written presently, and he did not see the need for a moratorium at
this time.
Council member Turgeon asked whether the zoning standards regarding commercial development needing
to be strengthened in the Code could be completed within the next few months. Director Nielsen
responded affirmatively with regard to landscaping and possibly construction requirements.
Councilmember Zerby expressed appreciation for having discussions regarding the possibility of a
moratorium on certain aspects of commercial development, as they would allow the City to refine and
strengthen the Code in an effort to do a good job of planning effectively for the future.

2. County Road 19 Intersection
Engineer Brown reported possible preliminary layouts of the County Road 19 Intersection project would
be available for Council approval at the next meeting.
3. T.H. 7/41 Project
Engineer Brown reported construction had started, and there seemed to be two issues of concern related to
this project. He noted there would be a sizeable supplemental agreement needed regarding additional
earthwork being done on the project; however, he anticipated costs in this agreement would be handled
through the use of Municipal State Aid funds. In addition, he stated the potential for striking AFSCME
union workers could possibly impact the project and steps would need to be examined with regard to the
City's liability in the project.
4. Update on Johnson case
Attorney Keane reported this matter was being appealed and review being sought by the Eighth Circuit
Court of Appeals at the request of Mr. Ronald Johnson.

RE:
Permanent Appointme~t - Julie Moore
FILE NO:
Admin (Personnel)
Julie Moore has been with us for 6 months, as of September 5. Without hesitation and with great
enthusiasm, Julie has assumed her duties as the Communications Technician. In her first 6
months, we replaced the Mac computer with a Pc. With this change, Julie had to learn a new
desktop publishing software program. She very quickly became proficient in creating new and
converting existing documents. Julie works very hard at gathering the necessary data for
meeting the Newsletter deadline. She has the ability to create informative articles and other
infoImational pieces for the public. Her positive attitude and high level of energy contribute to
her outstanding performance.
.
Staff Recommendation:
I am pleased to recommend Julie Moore for permanent appointment as part-time
~ Communications Technician. With that comes a six-month step increase. It is recommended
that this increase be effective as of September 5.

RE: Authorize Expenditure of Funds for Bleachers for Badger Park
Minnesota State Statute 16B.616 Bleacher Safety, mandates that all cities and public facilities bring
bleachers into compliance by January 1, 2002 to prevent injury or death from falls. Attachment 1 is
the above referenced statute.
Staff reviewed the bleachers within the parks for the City of Shorewood. Of immediate concern are
the wooden bleachers for the Badger Park football field. These bleachers were recently moved to
the public works facility for study, to determine the most cost-effective action to bring these
bleachers into compliance.
.
Due to the strict requirements of the statute, it was soon realized that the most cost-effective
measure was to remove the existing bleachers and replace them with four aluminum bleachers that
are less than 55 inches in height.
Staff received quotes for bleachers meeting the safety requirements in the statute. The quotes
provided are summarized below in Table 1

Expenditure of Funds for Bleachers
September 6, 200 I
Page 2 of2
While the quote provided by EF Anderson is the least of the two quotes, the bleachers provided by
Tomark provide a higher bleacher, and a wider "walk area" between the seats to travel laterally
along the bleachers. The Tomark bleachers appear to be of higher quality. Since the prices are
reasonably close, Staff is recommending that the quote form Tomark, Inc. be accepted.
Funding for this expenditure has been budgeted via the Capital Improvement Program for Parks.
An amount of $7,000 has been allocated for bleacher purchases and retrofits for the year 2001.
Recommendation
Staff is recommending that that the proposal provided from Tomark, Inc. for the purchase of 4 sets .
of bleachers be approved for the amount of $3,475.00 (not including sales tax).
.
.
..
.
.
Minnesota State Statute 16B.616 Bleacher safety.
Subdivision 1. Definitions. (a) For purposes of this section, the following terms have the
meanings given.
(b) "Place of public accommodation" means a public or privately owned sports or entertainment
arena, gymnasium, auditorium, stadium, hall, special event center in a public park, or other facility
for public assembly.
(c) "Bleacher" refers to any tiered or stepped seating facility, whether temporary or permanent,
used in a place of public accommodation for the seating of its occupants.
Subd. 2. Application. All places of public accommodation must comply with the provisions of
this section.
Subd. 3. Safety requirements. In places of public accommodation using bleacher seating, all
bleachers or bleacher open spaces over 55 inches above grade or the floor below, and
all bleacher guardrails if any part of the guardrail is over 30 inches above grade or the floor below
must conform to the following safety requirements:
(1) the open space between bleacher footboards, seats, and guardrails must not exceed four
inches, unless approved safety nets are installed, except that retractable bleachers already in
place as of January 1, 2001, may have open spaces not exceeding nine inches and any bleachers
owned by the University of Minnesota, the Minnesota state colleges and universities, or a
private college or university may have open spaces not exceeding nine inches;
(2) bleachers must have vertical perimeter guardrails with no more than four-inch rail spacing
between vertical rails or other approved guardrails that address climbability and are designed to
prevent accidents; and
(3) the state building official shall determine whether the safety nets and guardrail climbability
meet the requirements of the alternate design section of the State Building Code. All new bleachers
manufactured, installed, sold, or distributed after January 1,2001, must comply with the State
Building Code in effect and this subdivision.
Subd. 4. Enforcement. (a) A statutory or home rule charter city that is not covered by the code
because of action taken under section 16B.72 or 16B.73 is responsible for enforcement in the city of
the code's requirements for bleacher safety. In all other areas where the code does not apply
because of action taken under section 16B.72 or 16B.73, the county is responsible for enforcement
of those requirements.
Attachment 1
...
(b) Municipalities that have not adopted the code may enforce the code requirements for bleacher
safety by either entering into a joint powers agreement for enforcement with another municipality
that has adopted the code or contracting for enforcement with a qualified and certified building
official or state licensed design professional to enforce the code.
(c) Municipalities, school districts, organizations, individuals, and other persons operating or
owning places of public accommodation with bleachers that are subject to the safety requirements in
subdivision 3 shall provide a signed certification of compliance to the commissioner by January 1,
2002. For bleachers subject to the exception in subdivision 3, clause (1), entities covered by this
paragraph must have on file a bleacher safety management plan and amortization schedule. The
certification shall be prepared by a qualified and certified building official or state licensed design
professional and shall certify that the bleachers have been inspected and are in compliance with the
requirements of this section and are structurally sound. For bleachers owned by a school district,
the person the district designates to be responsible for buildings and grounds may make the
certification.
Subd. 5. Noncomplying bleachers prohibited. The commissioner, in addition to other remedies
provided for violations of this chapter, shall forbid use of bleachers not in compliance with this
section.
.
Subd. 6. Periodic inspections. Bleacher footboards and guardrails must be reinspected at least
every five years and a structural inspection must be made at least every ten years. Inspections may
be completed in the same manner as provided in subdivision 4. This section does not preclude a
municipal authority from establishing additional reinspections under the State Building Code.

CITY OF SHOREWOOD
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
TUESDAY, AUGUST 21, 2001
COUNCIL CHAMBERS
5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD
7:00 P.M.
MINUTES
CALL TO ORDER
Chair Bailey called the meeting to order at 7 :09 P.M.
Present:
Chair Bailey; Commissioners Gagne, Packard, Pisula, White, and Woodruff; Council
Liaison Zerby and Planning Director Nielsen
Absent:
Commissioner Borkon
APPROVAL OF MINUTES
. August 7, 2001
Gagne moved, Woodruff seconded, approving the August 7, 2001, Planning Commission Meeting
Minutes as presented. Motion passed 5/0/1, with White abstaining due to absence at that meeting.
STUDY SESSION
Without objection from the Commission, Chair Bailey moved Item 6, Reports to the top of the Study
Session Agenda for the evening.
1. REPORTS (This item was moved from No.6 on this evening's Agenda.)
Commissioner Pisula reported on matters considered and actions taken at the August 13, 2001, Regular
City Council Meeting (as detailed in the minutes of that meeting).
Director Nielsen also reviewed the moratorium discussion from that same Council meeting. He noted
there were areas of review in the City's Comprehensive Plan (Comp. Plan) that could be completed by the
Planning Commission by year-end. One of those areas included a discussion to define what was meant
by the term "community-scale." Another area in the Compo Plan requiring clarification was the area of
landscaping in commercial development areas.
Director Nielsen also said it was important to review areas of concern heard from the residents as part of
previous proposals for consideration and clarification within the Compo Plan for future development
within Shorewood. No matter what would develop on that site, many issues heard by residents during the
Public Hearing process would remain, and would need to be addressed by the City.
A brief discussion by the Planning Commission included elements of size, traffic, appearance, hours of
operation, lighting, and use of delivery vehicles on the roadways as well as times of deliveries being made
within the City.
Commissioners agreed many options for development could unfold regarding commercial development
within the City, and it was important to remember the Compo Plan defined Shorewood as a "bedroom
community." In addition, it was equally important to consider many possibilities for future businesses as
a result of decisions being made at this time.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
AUGUST 21, 2001
Page 2 of 3
With regard to other meetings, Commissioner Gagne reported on the Gideon Glen Advisory Committee
Meeting of August 6, 2001, noting the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD) was reviewing
concept plans. Also, approximately $350,000 was being designated for improvements to land along
County Road 19 as part of this project.
Commissioner Woodruff explained the MCWD had designated approximately $254,000 for the Budget
Year 2002, and again for the Year 2003 for use with wetland restoration and preservation in the Gideon
Glen project. She stated this was the first time the MCWD had budgeted for a restoration project and
liked the proposed project a great deal. She also noted the City should be very proud of its
accomplishments regarding that project.
2. ORGANIZED REFUSE COLLECTION
Director Nielsen explained thus far, the organized refuse collection survey was one of the most successful
surveys completed in terms of response from residents. He stated there were approximately 300
responses so far.
Commissioner Pisula commented, in review of responses received thus far, there definitely seemed to be .
polarization of viewpoints regarding refuse collection service. After a brief discussion, the Commission
supported the idea that there were many options still available for consideration as part of this study, and
it was important to consider the impact of those options on the City's roadways.
Chair Bailey asked if information could be quantified regarding the amount of money spent on roadway
repair as a result of refuse collection trucks traversing the streets daily. Director Nielsen responded it
would be difficult to quantify information related specifically to refuse collection trucks versus other large
vehicles using those same roadways. Director Nielsen then explained the next steps in the process of the
organized refuse collection study for the Commission, noting there would be a ninety-day period of time
where interested parties could discuss, submit ideas, or debate this matter before the Planning
Commission and/or City Council.
3. COUNTY ROAD 19 REDEVELOPMENT
Director Nielsen explained this project was a bit like a miniature Comprehensive Plan for the County
Road 19 redevelopment area as it included elements related to natural resources, land use, redevelopment, .
transportation, the County Road 19/5mithtown Road/Country Club Road intersection itself, and
community facilities for police and fire. He stated he had an idea of tying the corridor together through a
streetscape design in an effort to make an "entrance" to the City of Shorewood.
He then began reviewing potential sites as part of the streetscape design. He stated much of a themed
idea in the streetscape design could be achieved through landscaping details, such as at the northerly
boundary to Shorewood near the LRT trail on County Road 19. He also stated an identity could be
created at this location that could act as a common entry design for other entrances to Shore wood. In
addition, he noted the Xcel Energy site, the Gideon Glen historical monument, Gideon Glen itself, the
intersection of County Road 19/5mithtown Road/Country Club Road; an area near the Smithtown
Crossings Shopping Center, the South Shore Community Center; and the proposed new public safety
facility site as other areas where streetscape elements could enhance the area.
Director Nielsen next reviewed elements of a streetscape in Wayzata, Minnesota, for the Commission. In
review of an issues map of the redevelopment area, he noted concern for pedestrian circulation,
streetlights, and land use as ideas for consideration in planning the future in that area.
.
.
PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING MINUTES
AUGUST 21, 2001
Page 3 of 3
The Commission expressed unanimous support for designing a streetscape for the County Road 19
Redevelopment project. Director Nielsen noted this project had the potential to be very exciting and fun
in its design.
4. PROPOSED TEXT FOR COMP PLAN PLANNING DISTRICTS
Director Nielsen reviewed the data sheet for Planning District #8. He noted the geographic boundaries
for this district to include Galpin Lake, and the ShorewoodlExcelsior municipal border to the north; Mill
Street to the east; the Shorewood/Chanhassan municipal border to the south; and State Highway 7 to the
west. He also noted certain areas within the district were characterized by steep terrain as well as wetland
basins. With regard to land use and zoning, the district was predominantly comprised of single-family
dwellings, a few commercial properties, and scattered vacant parcels. A considerable portion of the
district was located within the lOOO-foot Shoreland area of Galpin Lake.
Director Nielsen noted a continuation of land use patterns would most likely occur with a bit of
redevelopment possible over time in certain areas. Further consideration should be given to subdivision
of larger parcels in the area as well as "back-lot development." In addition, he noted the intersection of
Highways 7 and 41, currently under construction, could be considered as an entry point to the city and
may benefit from some of the elements discussed with regard to a new streetscape. He noted, some sort
of turn-around should be considered for Murray Street with any redevelopment of properties in that area.
Sanitary sewer was available throughout the district with water being made available in small areas from
the City of Chanhassan. The Woodhaven well was being considered for connection to the Excelsior
water system. There were no parks in this district, existing or planned.
Director Nielsen stated proposed text for this district would be available at a future meeting for further
review.
5. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
There were no matters from the floor presented this evening.
6. DRAFT NEXT MEETING AGENDA
Director Nielsen noted there would be three items, a request for Conditional Use Permit, and two variance
requests, as part of the Agenda for the September 4, 2001, Planning Commission Meeting. He also noted
a Study Session would most likely be part of the Agenda to maximize efforts toward completion of the
work plan for the year.
7. ADJOURNMENT
Gagne moved, Woodruff seconded, adjourning the Planning Commission Meeting of August 21,
2001, at 9:16 P.M. Motion passed 6/0.
RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED,
Sally Keefe,

FROM:
Brad Nielsen
DATE:
3 August 2001
RE:
Russell, James - Revised Variance Request
FILE NO.
405 (01.21)
Mr. James Russell has reapplied for a variance that was considered by the Planning
Commission in December of last year (see Planning Director's memorandum, dated 30
November 2000, and Planning Commission minutes, dated 5 December 2000 - copied in
yellow). His request was withdrawn, pending an appeal of the need for a variance.
.
The current application contains modifications to his original plans that are in response to
recommendations made by staff and the Planning Commission. Background on this
request is contained in the original staff report. Following is a summary of the current
proposal:
A. Existing dwelling. Mr. Russell still proposes to leave the house in its current
location. Rather than completely replace the existing roof system, he will repair
it. He does propose to extend the gable dormer on the rear (lake side) of the house
by six feet. He also proposes to replace the shed dormer on the front (street side)
of the house with a gable dormer consistent in style to the lake side dormer.
These changes are illustrated on his revised site plan (Exhibit A, attached) and the
revised second floor plan (Exhibit B). These improvements are all within a
buildable area that would be consistent with a 20-foot side yard setback, as
previously recommended.

Memorandum
Re: Russell - Revised Variance Request
3 August 2001
B. Existing caq>ort. The applicant has agreed to remove the carport. In its place he
proposes a future (possibly sooner than later) detached garage to be located in the
buildable area of the lot (assuming a 20-foot side yard setback). The garage
would be connected to the house by a wooden deck.
C. Existing driveway. At such time as the garage is constructed, the applicant
proposes to remove approximately 50 feet of the existing driveway (nearly 40
percent of what exists today).
D. Existing accessory structure (near street). The applicant requests approval to keep
this structure as a storm shelter.
E. Existing accessory structure (near house). The applicant proposes to remove this
building.
The applicant's revised plans result in approximately a 23.7 percent hardcover ratio,
which complies with the 25 percent maximum required by Shoreland management
regulations. The plans also respect the previously recommended 20-foot setback from the
Third Street fire lane. Removal of the shed near the house, the carport and nearly 40
percent of the existing driveway all bring the property into better compliance with R-
1 CIS zoning standards. It is recommended that the plans be approved as presented, and
that the corrections proposed by the applicant be incorporated into the resolution
approving the variances.

Request for a variance from the setback requirements
Shorewood Planning Commission and Council
On July 7, 2000 a large tree limb fell onto the roof of the dwelling at 26080 Birch Bluff Rd. causing
damage to the roof peak and attic. The repair to match the original construction would be a simple
matter but the building inspector will require changes in the structural members in the attic and
second floor.
The dwelling which was built in 1880according to the Hennepin County Treasurers record, does
not have frost free footings beneath its foundation.
Your applicant has decided to install proper footings and foundation before making the attic repairs,
but is confronted with the following:
1. A.35 foot sideyard setback from the street/firelane which adjoins on the west.
2. A 30 foot sideyard setback total which applies to shoreline lots.
.
3. The encroachment on both the Birch Bluff Road right of way and the street/firelane by a stone
and concrete structure which lies on the southwest comer of the property.
There are special conditions and circumstances peculiar to this lot which should entitle the applicant
to a variance from the ordinance requirements.
1. The city pla.nner informs me that previous requests by landowners for relief from the firelane
setback requirements have been granted and that the fire lane is treated as an ordinary lot line. Also, it
is my observation over fifty years that the use by the public of the firelane is minimal and is much
different than with an ordinary public street.
2. The Birch Bluff Upper Minnetonka plat was filed May 10, 1881 and used parallel lot lines from
one end to the other, ignoring the angle of the lot lines to the lakeshore. It probably wouldn't be done
the same today. The dwelling was oriented to the lakeshore, and not to the sideyard lines, and only
crosses the sideyard setback line on one comer in a triangle shape 39 square feet in area..
.
3. The stone and concrete strucuture built into the hillside formed by Birch Bluff Road and the
firelane was probably built when the house was built., At any rate, it is not a noticeable building from
any angle, does not infringe on the light and air of any neighbor, does not interfere with the use of the
roadway or the firelane and has great value to the property and to life and limb because it is a safe
storm shelter. There is no other storm protection available at this house which faces north and west,
has no basement and faces nearly every important gale.
The Zoning Administrator interprets the ordinance to deprive the applicant of the right to make
structural changes to a single family residence.
The special conditions and circumstances that require this request for variance, a setback
encroachment, are the result of a plat and building placement 119 years in the past and are not the
result of actions by the applicant. ~. / it/' _ _ /.J. ./,//

Russell, James - Setback Variance
405 (00.31)
. '
BACKGROUND
~. James Russell owns the property at 26080 Birch Bluff Road, (see Site Location map-
Exhibit A, attached). The property is occupied by an old cabin, a carport and two accessory
strUctures, as sho'wn on Exhibit B. Due to recent storm, damage, Mr. Russell must re~lace the
existing roof on the structure. As explained in his letter (Exhibit C), Mr, Russell wishes to
, , place a foundation under the existing cabin in conjunction with the roof replacement. 'Since
none of the structures on the site comply with CUlTent se~ack requirements, he, has requested
variances to allow the cabin to remain in its present location.
The property is zoned R-IClS, Single-F'amily Residential/Shoreland and contains 16,204
, square feetof area. The existing cabin is only six feet from an old street right-of-way called
Third'Street, which.is classified as a "fire lane" on the Zoning Map. SinGe th~se rrre lanes ar~
technically street righ~-of-way, a 35-foot setback would ordinarily be req~ired.
, As shown on Exhibit B, two small accessory structures located on the property not only fail to
compiy with setbacks, but are actually located within the public right-of,.way.
ANAL YSISIRECOMMENDATION
While there is significant precedence for granting a variance t9 the setback requirement from
the rue lane, there is also a good opportunity to achieve better compliance with current
standards as part of the proposed work on this site.
ft
'-J PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER
Memorandum
Re: Russell Variance Request
30 November 2000
I"
.;J
The City has 'granted variances to fire lane setbacks on at least three other occasions., Similar
requests have been granted in recent years on Birco'BluffRoad, Ferncroft Drive and Glen
Grove Path. It is worth noting that, following a lengthy fire lane study a few years ago, the
City decided to retain ownership of fire lanes for lake access, rather than vacate them.' In
essence the fire lanes ar~ more like park property than street right-of-way. For example, the
Glen Grov~ Path fire lane was maintained primarily for drainage purposes. The Eureka Road
fire lane is designated as a Class ill rrre lane which allows pedestrian access to the lake,
fishing, and launching canoes and small boats not requiring a trailer. The Third Street fire
lane is similarly classifie~. '
When viewed more as park land, it is appropriate to require normal setbacks. ' In this case, the
westerly property line would be treated as a side lot line. For lakeshore lots, a total of 30 feet.
of side yard must be providedt with neither side being less than 10 feet. Although the
applicant has requested to keep the building in its current location~ it is recommended that the
building be turned on the lot to comply to the extent possible with the required setback
requirement. Construction of a new foundation requires the building to be raised up anyway. .
SiItce the cabin: is 46 feet wide without the CarpOlt, and the lot is 75 feet wide, th~ building
will be one foot short of the 30-foot requirement, but far more in compliance with cun'ent
standards A review of the home locations on Exhibit G illustrates that not all buildings have
been oriented parallel to the lakeshore. In fact, the house immediately west ,of the subject
property is oriented to the lot lines. In turning the stru~ture it is highly recommended that the
applicant consider movi~g it back 10-15 feet in order ,to accommod~te p<?ssible future decks or
a patio on the lake side of the house. , ' ' ,
, It is recommended that the catport be removed. It is also recommended that the two accessory
structures be brought into compliance with setbacks., This may mean the, demolition of the
earth-sheltered building that" encroaches onto Bitch Bluff Road. On~ problem with leaving it
where it is relates to the Zoning Code provision for average setbacks. The properties on either
side can use this structure to reduce their front yard setbacks. '
It is recommended that the applicant be, granted a variance to the 35-foot setback from Third .
Street, subject to the following:
1. The house must be turned and situated 10 feet from the easterly lot line, leav'ing 19
feet from the Third Street r.o.w.
2. The carport should be removed as part of the roof and foun~ation work.
, ,
3. The. tWQ accessory structures should be brought into conformity with R-IC/S setback
requirements.
4. Strong consideration should be given to moving the building back from the lakeshore
to accommodate a future deck or patio.

Request for a variance from the setback requirements
Shorewood Planning Commission and Council
On July 7, 2000 a large tree litnb feU onto the roof ofth.e dwelJing at 26080 Birch.:BluffRd.
causing damage to the roofpeak and attic. The repair will require changes in the stxuctutal
. members in the attic and second fibor.
The dwelling which was built in 1880 according to tbe Hennepin County Treasurers record, does
not have frost free footingsl:>et;1eath its foundation.
Your applicant has decided to install proper fOotings and foundation before mtlkiug tl1e attic
repairs, but is confronted wit.hthe foUowing:
1. A 35 fOot sideyard setback iom the fite1ane which adjoins on the west. '
2. A 30 foot sideyard setback total which app_ to shoreline lots.
3. The encroachment on both the Birch Bluff'Road right of way and the fireJane by a stone and
concrete structure which liespn the southwest ~.ofthe.property. '
4.' The encroachnlent by a cement drlve"YllY on the.Dre1ane. .
There are special conditions and circumstances ~uJiar to this lot and the terrain which should
entitle the applicant to a variance from the ordinance requirements.
1. The city planner informs me that previous requests by landowners for relieffrorn the tirelane
setback requirement~ have been granted and that thefire1ane is treated as an ordinary lot line.
Also, it is my observation over fifty years that the use by the public of the firelane is minimal and
is much different than with an ordinary public street.
2. The Birch Bluff Upper Minnetonka plat was:filed May 10,1881 and usedparallellot lines
from one end to the other, ignoring the angle of the lot lines to the lakeshore. It probably
wouldn't be done the same today. The dvy;elling was oriented to the lakeshore, and not to the
sideyard lines, and only crosses the sideyard setback line on one comer
3. The stone and concrete strucuture built into ~ hillside formed by Birch Bluff Road and the. '
fuelane was probably built whentbe hpuse was built, the fireplace and chimney and the stone ,
building in question probably were the work of the same stonemasons. At any rate, it is not a
noticeable building from any angle, d;oes not infringe on the light and air of any neighbor, does not
interfere with the use of the roadway or the fire1ane and bas great value to the prpperty and to life
and limb because it is a sate stonnshelter. There is no other storm. protection available at this
house which faces north and west and gets nearly every important gale.
4. .The lot in question along with its neighbor on the opposite side of Birch Bluff Road is the
low point on Birch Bluff Road. The lot is lower than the Birch Bluff Road roadbed and lower
than the fire1ane. The east portion of the fuelane is an incline down to the lot in question. The
encroaching driveway on this incline protects it from erosion and provides traction on the incline.
Literal interpretation of the terms of this ordinance would deprive the applicant of the right to
preserve a worthy and historic Iakehouse by installing a proper foundation. A new foundation
would probably require only a building permit on a different property.
The special conditions and circumstances that require this request for variance are the result of a
plat and building placement 119 years in the past, and B1so terrain conditions, and are not the
resuh of actions bylbe applicant. ~~/1

Anderson moved, Callies seconded, recommended approval of a Conditional Use Permit subject to
staff recommendations and a plan for screening of the mechanicals on the rooftop of the proposed
addition as well as a designated sidewalk to the buses from the building, for Our Savior's Lutheran
Church, 23290 Highway 7.
Conunissioner Anderson commented this seemed to be. a good project. He believed City staff to be
competent and capable of dealing with the complexities involved in this matter in an effort to work
together with the church. He also reiterated his request for architectural standards being held in this
matter.
Chair Bailey commented he would not vote favorably for this matter as he agreed with Commissioner
Turgeon.
Conunissioner WOOdlUff stated she thought the same initially, but was confident enough agencies were

2. 7:15 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING - SETBACK VARIANCE
Applicant: James Russell
Location: 26080 Birch Bluff Road
Director Nielsen provided background on this matter, noting the property was occupied by an old cabin, a
carport, and two accessory structures. Due to recent stonn damage, Mr. James Russell must replace the
existing roof on the house. He wished to place a fouridation under the existing cabin in conjuction with
the roof replacement. Since none of the structures on site comply with setback requirements, a variance
was being requested to allow the cabin to remain in its present location. The cabin was only six feet
from a classified fire lane on the Zoning Map. Typically, a 35-foot setback is required. In addition, the
two accessory structures were located within the public right-of-way.
Director Nielsen also cited three instances where variances were granted to fire . lane setbackS. He also .
noted in essence, the fire lanes were found to be more like park property rather than a street right-of-way.
When viewed as park land, nOrmal setbacks become appropriate. Director Nielsen's recommendation to
turn the house to more effectively comply with setback requirements. was combined with his
recommendation to consider moving the house back an additional 10-15 feet in the event a deck on the
lakeside of the house would ever be warranted. In addition, possible demolition or conformity of the two
accessory structures. was recommended. The carport was to be removed as part of his recommendations
as. well.
Mr. James Russell, owner of the property, stated the house was believed to have been built in 1880 and '
he was. nineteen when the house was purchased by his father in 1950. Last July 7, during a storm, a
maple tree fell in the middle of the roof attic space leaving a 12 foot hole. After meeting with a
contractor and city officials, it was decided there were structural concerns and rebuilding was necessary.
As part of this concern, he opted to build a foundation as well as repair the roof. He also noted the house
had historical merit as well. Mr. Edward Eeter, the owner in 1920, had documented the site was a ticket
office for a streetcar boat. . Mr. Russell believed his home to be a charming place worth saving.

Planning Commission Meeting Minutes - Page 5 of 9
December 5, 2000
Mr. Russell had done calculations regarding Director Nielsen's recommendations and a survey and found
the proposed turn would be eighteen degrees. He noted the houses to the east were oriented to the lake as
was. this one, and this turn would change it from a westerly facing direction to a northerly facing
direction, thus, minimizing the sunsets observed across the lake. He also stated turning the house would
change.. but not cure, the compliance issues. Thus, he would resist making the turn. His contractor
infori:ned him the cost to turn the home would double the estimate for lifting the house.
Furthermore, he stated he would like to keep his carport as he used it for boat parking, and he saw it as an
embellishment'to the property and would hate to lose it. With regard to the two accessory buildings, the
9 x 12 foot building can be moved, and the stone building seemed. to be built at the sa:m.e time the cabin
was built since the stonework matches the chimney. He also noted this stone houst; did not interfere with
any use of the area, and his family utilized it as a storm shelter in the past. They would most likely
continue to do so as the proposed foundation w~.anticipated to be 42 inches witb footings.
In conclusion, Mr.:Russell stated he had no obvious need for the deck and did not anticipate selling in the
near future hence, there would be no need to move the house back the additional 10-15 feet as suggested.
Chair Bailey opened the Public Hearing at 9:08P.M.
Mr. Edward Soner, 26100 Birch Bluff Road-the property immediately west, stated he did not see what
these recommendations would accomplish. He believed the historic aspects of Mr. Russell's property
added to the value of the property. Furthennore, with these improvements the foundation would
stabilize, but turning the house would not fix anything in his opinion.
Chair Bailey closed the Public Hearing at 9:10 P.M.
Commissioner Anderson questioned what actually would be achieved by turning the home. Director
Nielsen reiterated the setback requirements and noted this was a structural alteration of a non-conforming
site. .
Commissioner Turgeon stated she was thinking of any future owners and that it would be nice to fix part
of the problems on the site since opportunity had presented itself, and a future owner may want to have
them fixed. Also, she noted she was also trying to be both fair to the applicant and consistent with what
had been done in the past.
Commissioner Woodruff stated she sympathesized with the issue of turning the house and changing the .
view of the lake, however, this was a tough issue to resolve. She had no problems with leaving the stone
house on site in its present location.
Commissioner Callies confirmed should Mr. Russell repair the roof but not replace the foundation, the
home could exist in its current location. Mr. Russell responded it would be a much better home with the
foundation and would greatly improve the living space. Commissioner Callies also stated she did not
have a problem with the storm shelter.
Commissioner Anderson commented this was a tough issue because the economics of turning the home
needed to be balanced with the Zoning Code requirements.
Commissioner Callies confIrmed moving the house back 10-15 feet did not have anything to do with
bringing it into conformity.
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes - Page 6 of 9
December S, 2000
~
Chair Bailey questioned Mr. Russell about accessing the driveway. Mr. Russell responded tbe driveway
was accessed using the fue lane as had been done for the past 150 years. He was not aware of the
prohibition of non-motorized vehicles on a fire land until this evening, and actually this fire lane was
used very little as this was a summer home for his family.
1
Chair Bailey stated the Planning Commission tries to bring conformity to the community, and it would be
hard to "turn a blind eye" to this massive nonconformity. He cited the use of the fire lane as a driveway,
concrete beneath the carport, as well as the nonconforming accessory structures contributing to the
overall detriment of the site. While these have all been a part of the past, it would be difficult to ratify
these issues in granting a variance, be stated.
Mr. Russell questioned whether the Commission should take into consideration tbe existence of
structures ~d uses for the past 150 years when it is considering a request.
Commissioner Turgeon asked Mr. Russell if he could live with the issue of turning the house. He replied
it was already encroaching on the setback areas, and he did not see it as a possible solution.
Commissioner Anderson stated he was concerned with setting a precedent, but did not want to deny this
request. He also noted Mr. Russell may want to reconsider as the costs to bring the site into COnfOrmity.
could become burdensome.
Anderson moved, Callies seconded, recommending approval of the Variance, subject to staff
reconunendations and the addition of moving the driveway and bringing it in compliance with the
Zoning Code, for Mr. James Russell, 26080 Birch Bluff Road.
Commissioner Anderson commented he would be voting against his motion even though he thought Mr.
Russell's attempt to fix the home was admirable.
Commissioner Turgeon stated she could support leaving the stone home provided nothing further was
done to it. She would support removal of the shed and carport, the turning of the house, and a designated
driveway off the fire lane.
Commissioner Callies stated she did not believe the Commission should be in the business of redesigning
a lot, and she questioned whether this would be a buildable lot. Commissioner Woodruff agreed and
noted this was a tough decision. .
Chair Bailey reiterated his concern of the fire lane being used privately and would like to see
constrUction of a compliant driveway. Also he would prefer to see th~ accessory structures brought into
compliance as precedented.
Motion failed 2f3, with Anderson, Callies, and Woodruff dissenting.
Mr. Russell apologized for the use of the fire lane as his driveway, but believed parking to be problematic
on Birch Bluff Road.
Chair Bailey requested a reces.s at 9:50 P .M..
Chair Bailey resumed the meeting at 9:55 P.M.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council

FROM:
Brad Nielsen
RE:
Miller, James - C .U.P for Accessory Space in Excess of 1200 Square Feet
(Revised)
DATE: 6 September 2001
FILE NO.: 405 (01.24)
BACKGROUND
.
Mr. James Miller owns the house at 5860 Hillendale Road (see Site Location map - Exhibit A,
attached). He proposes to add approximately 848. square feet to his existing attached garage.
Since the resulting garage space will be greater than 1200 square feet in area, Mr. Miller has
requested a conditional use permit, pursuant to Section 1201.03 Subd. 2.d.(4) of the Shorewood
Zoning Code.
The property is zoned R-IC, Single-Family Residential and contains approximately 25,396
square feet in area. As shown on Exhibit B the existing garage extends from the southwest end
of the home and has 609 square feet of floor area. The garage addition contains 893 square feet
of area (see Exhibits C and D). As proposed the total area of accessory space will be 1502
square feet. The proposed home contains 1528 square feet of floor area. Exhibit E shows the
front elevation of the home and existing garage.
ANAL YSIS/RECOMMENDATION
Section 1201.03 Subd. 2.d.(4) of the Zoning Code sets forth criteria for granting conditional use
permits for accessory space over 1200 square feet. Following is how the applicant's plans
comply with the Code:
#&-8
n
~.1 PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER
Memorandum
Re: Miller Conditional Use Permit
30 August 2001
.iI*
a. The total area of accessory buildings (1502 square feet) does not exceed the floor area
(1528 square feet) above grade of the existing home. .
b. The total area of accessory buildings does not exceed 10 percent of the minimum lot size
for the R-IC zoning district (.10 x 20,000 = 2000 square feet).
c. The proposed house and garage comply with R-IC setback requirements.
d. Since the new garage is an integral part of the proposed house, architectural compatibility
is not considered to be an issue. Since a thick landscape buffer already exists along the
south end of the property, no additional landscaping is considered necessary.
Based upon the preceding analysis, it is recommended that the applicant's request for a
conditional use permit be granted as requested.

many years, it has received partial funding from the Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) program administered by Hennepin County.
.
The County has indicated it would not be providing CDBG funding next year. Senior
Community Services has requested the CityofShorewood to provide $6,000 in funding. This
amount has been included in the City's proposed 2002 budget.
A representative of Senior Community Services and/or the Southshore Senior Center will present
this request to the Council.
RECOMMENDATION:
The City Council is requested to review and approve the Senior Community Services 2002
Budget request in the amount of $6,000.

Mayor Woody Love and City Council Members
City of Shorewood
5755 Country Club Road
Shorewood, MN 55331
Dear Mayor Love and Council Members:
Last year the Southshore Senior/Community Center served 1,098
local area seniors. The Center offers a wide variety of programs
assisting people to remain as independent and active as possible.
Elderly people 65+ are the primary target group and many
participate as volunteers. Most Center participants are over 75.
For many the Center serves as the principal point of access to
needed services and information. Activities include health
screenings, physical exercise classes, counseling groups, daily
noon meals, tax and energy assistance, recreational groups, a
wide range of cultural and educational activities and
transportation. The transportation service allows those people
who no longer drive to continue to grocery shop on their own and
to do personal errands without having to depend on others. In
2000 the van provided 5,134 trips.
..
As you may be aware, Community Development Block Grant
funding to help support the Southshore Center has declined. We
are requesting $6,000 from the City of Shorewood for budget year
2002. We are hopeful the City will agree the Center Program has
and will be a valuable asset to the citizens of our community and
deserving of your support. We would be very willing to meet with
the City Council (workshop or regular meeting) to discuss our
request. The contact person for our. request is our Center Director,
Joyce Flury (474-7977).

2002 Proposed Budget and Levy
To:
.
From:
Backgroulld
Enclosed is the 2002 Proposed Operating Budget for your review and approval. This budget was
discussed at the Council work-session on August 13,2001, and incorporates the changes
discussed at that time. The proposed budget and levy for Pay2002 must be certified to Hennepin
County by September 17,2001.
.
The 2002 Proposed Budget contemplates an increase in the City's tax levy, as permitted (and
restricted) by the newly legislated levy limits. The proposed 2002 levy is $2,763,367, which is
an increase of about 5.4%, after correcting for the lost state aids the city must now levy for. The
City's estimated market value (tax base) as of July 2001 is $817.1 million, which is up from
$769.8 million last year, an approximate 6% increase. Overall, property tax bills should decrease
for most properties, because of other changes in the property tax structure.
The 2002 Operating Budget also contemplates maintaining a General Fund balance of about $1.7
million in accordance with City Auditor recommendations to maintain 5 - 6 months reserve for
working capital purposes. This is necessary because cities receive most of their revenue in June
and December and must operate for six months at a time without major revenue flows.
Revenues are expected to remain fairly stable with the exception of building permit revenue,
which is expected to decrease because of reduced demand. Other sources of revenue include
fees, permits, some limited inter-governmental aid, and transfers from other funds, including a
$30,000 transfer from the liquor store fund. The City Council agreed with the staff
recommendation to review city fees carefully and consider increases, especially park user fees, to
assure parity.

City Representation on MCES Advisory Board
.
City Council has requested information regarding the City's representation on the Minnetonka
Community Education & Services (MCES) Advisory Board.
MCES provides services to the ten cities within the boundaries of the Minnetonka Independent
School District: MCES has an advisory board, on which each city has an appointed representative.
Shorewood" representative has been Tad Shaw. Earlier this year, the Council discussed whether Mr.
Shaw should be reappointed; however, this matter has not been placed on the Council's agenda for
several months. MCES reports that Mr. Shaw regularly attends Advisory Board meetings and, in
. fact, has one of the highest records of attendance.
.
MCES is a $4.9 million operation, with all but $800,000 coming from fees for service. Historically,
the cities have provided $0.50/capita for MCES operations. In 200 I, however, the School District
decided to invoice cities no longer for these services as the fees were nominal, and some of the larger
cities had decided not to make this contribution. MCES is organized in four divisions:
· Youth Programs, including youth and adult recreation programs
· Adult Programs, including Adult Basic Education (ABE), GED, English as a Second
Language (ESL), and adult enrichment courses
· Community Involvement and Volunteers
· Family Education. including ECFE
The Advisory Board has recently been working on
.
Budget containment ($150,000 in program cuts)
Budget review. comment, and recommendation prior to School Board consideration
Advocacy for programs (legislation, community support)
Personnel committee matters
New Program comminee matters (on major new programs)

Gift of Property at 6075 Chaska Road
Marjorie C. Peterson, who owns property at 6075 Chaska Road, appeared during the Open Forum at
the July 23,2001, City Council meeting. She requested that the City accept a transfer of ownership
for this residential lot that Watershed District regulations have rendered essentially unbuildable. She
proposed that the transaction take the form of mostly a gift from the Petersons, with some amount to
be paid by the City. Mrs. Peterson indicated that money was important due to serious and immediate
medical circumstances in her family. The City Council expressed several concerns about the rapidity
with which Ms. Peterson requested action, and directed staff to determine what funds - if any - might
be available and appropriate for such a transaction.
.
The Property: The lot at 6075 Chaska Road is quickly sloping from Mayflower Road to a wetland
interior to most of the property. It is between 1.0 and 1.5 acres in area. The site has not been
identified as necessary for City ownership to implement its stormwater management plan. The
character of the site - sloped, wooded, and wet - is consistent with the intent of criteria for protection
being developed by the Land Conservation and Environment Committee.
City Offer: When the property was platted, fees were collected for park improvements and sewer
availability. The fees in place today are $1,500 and $1,200, respectively, ora total of $2,700. I
offered to return these fees at their current rates, in recognition that these "development" fees may not
be appropriate as the City would be removing the lot from development. Otherwise, no funds are
budgeted, nor policies in place that would identify where funds should be available for such a
property transaction.
Peterson Offer: After discussions on several proposals, on September 5, 2001, Mrs. Peterson
presented a letter for execution of a transfer of the property to the City. The Petersons would gift the
property free of financial encumbrances to the City. The City would execute the transfer letter,
acknowledge receipt of an appraisal report on the property ($83,500), and coop~rate with the
Petersons regarding paperwork necessary for federal and state income tax purposes.

RE: Authorization for Expenditure of Funds for the Se Area Water System
Staff has been working with Munitech over the past few weeks to diagnose a malfunctioning pump
control valve within the SE Area Well House.
This valve is key in the operation of the well. Specifically, this valve opens when the well starts up,
such that the pumps can pump water to the distribution system and water tower. For this to occur,
pumps must overcome the pressure created by the water tower. If this valve malfunctions or fails to
close, the water from the tower and distribution system flow backwards through the pump and into
the groundwater aquifer. This would result in a total loss of pressure and supply in the entire water
distribution system. When the well pump begins the shutdown sequence, this valve closes at a slow
rate of speed such that "water hammer" and damage to the system are prevented.
. The good news is that the valve has been working to the extent that it water can still be pumped to
the water tower on a routine basis with little back flow through the pump. However, immediate
replacement of the valve is required to protect the distribution capability.
Table 1 is a summary for the furnish and delivery of the pump control valves to the site. Staff will
have to obtain pricing for installation of the valve with the help of the Public Works Department.
For reference, these valves are approximately 3 feet in diameter, and weigh just over 900 pounds.

While quotes for installation have not been provided, Staff is also requesting authorization to seek
out quotes for installation of the pump control valve once delivered, and to process approval of the
bids administratively.
Recommendation:
Staff is recommending that the proposal received from Davies Water. Equipment for the furnishing
and delivery of 1 pump control valve be approved. Furthermore that Staff is to seek quotes for
installation of the valve and process the approval of the quotes administratively.
