Executive Summary
Shorewood City Co'uncil Regular Meeting
Monday, 23 October 2000
Agenda Item #3A: This resolution issues the annual license for the sale of tobacco products in
eight establishments in Shorewood. The current licenses expire on October 31, 2000.
, This license period is from November 1, 2000 to October 31, 2001. Appro:valofthe
Resolution is contingent upon receipt of required application form and fee from each
establishment.
Agenda Item #3B: This item is a request for a Motion to approve the purchase of new
workstations for the front receptionists. The estimate from MetroSystems, the preferred
vendor, is $3,376. Funds for this purchase are ,available in the Council Contingency Fund.
Agenda Item #3C: This motion sets the date for a council and staff work-session to review
the budgets for the following Enterprise Funds: Liquor, Water, and Sewer funds. Staff
recommends scheduling the work-session to follow the regular City Council meeting on
November 13, 2000.
Agenda Item #3D: The Department of Public Works has been operating one staff member
short, for over one year. This is due to ail extended medical leave of absence by one of
the department employees. On September 7tlJ., Staff members met with this individual,
and representatives, to discuss the possibility of returning to work. Regrettably, final
recommendations indicate that this employee will not be returning to the position.
Therefore, Staff is recommending approval of a motion which authorizes advertisement
for filling of the Light Equipment Operator's position.
Agenda Item #3E: This Motion sets the date of December 8, 2000 for the Annual Staff
Appreciation Party.
Agenda Item #3F: This motion is passed by the City Council each year. Minnesota State
Statutes set tort liability limits for governmental units at $300,000 per claim/$750,000
total claims per occurrence. The City carries tort liability at statutory limits and has
excess liability coverage of $1,000,000. The City's insurer LMCIT, allows cities the
n
t.~ PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER
option of waiving this limit, thereby allowing the payment of a larger claim, up to
$750,000 plus the amount of excess liability coverage for a single claim. By waiving the
statutory tort limit, the City opens itself to larger claims and higher insurance costs. In
prior years, staff has recommended, and the City Council has elected, to not waive the
statutory limits. It is again the staff's recommendation that the Council approve a motion
that does not waive the statutory tort liability limits for the 2000/2001 insurance renewal.
Agenda Item #5B: The Park Commission discussed the concept of hosting a fund raising
event to assist with various park improvements. Funds raised could be utilized for capital
expenditures in the parks, such as the Skate Park, Eddy Station, or other capital
improvements. The Commission has considered ideas for fund raising such as a golf
tournament, a city festival or a marathon. The Park Commission has recommended that
the concept of a charitable fundraising event for park improvements be established. If
approved, it would also. be helpful for the City Council to comment on any support or
reservations as to the type of activity to be held for this event.
Agenda Item #6A: Mark Johnson has requested a conditional use permit that would allow
him to bring in approximately 250 cubic yards of fill at 26060 Wild Rose Lane. The
Planning Commission voted 4/1 to recommend approval, subject to conditions suggested
by staff. The resolution requires a four-fifths vote by the City Council.
Agenda Item #6B: Steve Polston proposes to build a detached garage at 28215 Boulder
Circle. The new garage will put them in excess of 1200 square feet of accessory space,
requiring a conditional use permit. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to
recommend approval of the C.D.P. Approval of the resolution requires a four-fifths vote
by the Council.
Agenda Item #7 A: Linda Murrell, Executive Director of the Excelsior Chamber of
Commerce, will be present at the meeting to invite the City of Shorewood to join the
Excelsior Chamber of Commerce. The annual membership fee is $125.
Agenda Item #8A: The City of Shorewood has entered into a contract with Thomas and Sons,.
Inc. for installation of sewer and watermain along the ditch of Eureka Road, portions of
Freeman Park, and along a portion of the LRT Trail. Further field investigation has
determined that approximately 400 feet of the project is too narrow to install a watermain
by conventional trenching. To complete the last 400 feet of the project, the line must be
directional bored. A change order has been negotiated with Thomas and Sons for a net
increase of $24,000 to the contract. The total construction cost remains under the amount
budgeted for the project. Therefore, Staff is recommending approval of the attached
resolution, which accepts Change Order 1.

Review Agenda

approved without revision.
2.
A Motion to Adopt a Resolution Accepting Bids and A warding Contract for the
Freeman Park Sewer and Water Project.
Engineer Brown reviewed the proposed project which includes the installation of sanitary sewer to
service Eddy Station and a necessary watermain loop in and adjacent to Freeman Park. Bids were
received, opened, and tabulated on September 27th, 2000. The lowest responsible bidder was found to be
Thomas and Sons, Inc. for a base bid amount of $203,485.00. In addition, a total bid was received of
$231;590.00 which includes a Bid Alternate 1. Engineer Brown explained that Bid Alternate 1 includes
an additional 555 lineal feet of 8-inch watermain along the LRT Trail. The bid received by Thomas and
Sons, Inc. was the low bid under both categories.
Mayor Love asked if the properties of 6065, 5985, 5965 would have municipal water service available to
them as part of this project. Engineer Brown stated that the City has not proposed the extension of
watermain services to the east side of Eureka Road. However, in the event one of these property owners
decided to connect to the new main, they could seek out a contractor to directional bore a service across
Eureka Road.
Councilmember Garfunkel asked if service stubs are going to be installed for properties that are adjacent
the LRT Trail. Engineer Brown reported that the Hennepin County Regional Rail Authority desires that
construction be minimized along the route. In addition, properties along the watermain route have
service available from Smithtown Road.

Councilmemeber Lizee inquired if the proposed watermain completes the loop for the Shorewood Oaks,
Shorewood Ponds and west system. Engineer Brown stated that the inclusion of Add Alternate I does
establish the watermain loop desired.
Councilmember Zerby inquired about obtaining an easement across the property of 25805 Eureka Way to
minimize the jogs in the alignment. Engineer Brown, stated that condemnation would be required to
obtain such an easement. Therefore, the alignment of the watermain was revised to exclude that
property.
Engineer Brown, stated the portion of watermain along the LRT Trail will be located on the north side of
the trail. This alignment was chosen to minimize impacts to trees. Property owners along the trail were
notified and visited by Brown to help address any concerns they might have. The walking trail will
remain open during construction.
Zerby moved, Lizee seconded a Motion to Adopt RESOLUTION NO. 00-097 Accepting Bids and
Awarding Contract for the Freeman Park Sewer and Watermain Improvement Project. Motion

line which required a variance." Following Paragraph 6, add, "Mayor Love clearly stated that
improvements made to the ball fields are not derived from City funds, but are monies raised by the

PLANNING

Engineer Brown, reporting on this matter for Director Nielsen, summarized the history surrounding this
plat. He noted the intent to construct two twinhomes on the site. Further, he explained there is to be
access to the property through a shared driveway from County Road 19, as well as directional boring to
obtain sanitary sewer access. City water is available to this site from the main in that area. He noted
there remains unsettled issues regarding grading and drainage for this matter, however, he did not believe
them to have a substantial impact on the final plat itself.
Roger Anderson, owner of Manitou Woods, was in attendance and addressed the Council. He explained
he is in agreement with the staff reports regarding the grading and drainage issues. He is an engineer and
believed these matters could be resolved. He also noted he had received the permit from Hennepin
County for the shared driveway access off of County Road 19.
Councilmember Lizee asked if there were plans for lighting on the site. Mr. Anderson responded there
were no plans for formal lighting in the back of the property, but options for lighting would be provided

in the covenants for the twinhome residents. He also noted there was no intention for "common" lighting,
such as a streetlight on the property-only the individual lights on the homes.
Councilmember Zerby asked if there was a pool on site. Mr. Anderson explained history of the site to
have included a pool that had been filled in and would now be removed as part of the project.
Mr. Bob Gagne, 24850 Amlee Road, asked the price range for the twinhomes. Mr. Anderson stated final

Authorizing a Tax Rate Increase for the 2000 Tax Levy, Collectable 2001
Mayor Love called the Public Hearing to order at 7: 18 P.M.
Finance Director Burton provided background on this matter, noting it was required due to a law passed
by the Minnesota Legislature last year, stating all cities, such as Shorewood, must pass a resolution if the
levy for the subsequent year will result in a tax rate increase. She also noted the City may still certify a
final levy that results in a constant or decreased tax rate once the resolution is appropriately filed with the
County Auditor.
Mayor Love closed the Public Hearing at 7:22 P.M.
.
Stover moved, Lizee seconded Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 00-103, "A Resolution Authorizing a

B. Quarterly Report by Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD)
Representative Tom Skramstad
Tom Skramstad, LMCD Representative, provided Council with an update on matters reviewed by the
Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD). He explained the need for additional Water Patrol
Deputies and the request for financial support from the 14 member cities. Shorewood's proposed amount
of support for this matter would be approximately $3,286. He asked Council for the support of the City
on this matter. He also noted the LMCD was requesting fmancial support on a voluntary basis, but
would proceed on its own with this matter and try to make a difference with whatever funding could be
raised.
Mayor Love commented it was his understanding that eight of the fourteen member cities were needed
for approval and currently seven were in support. He stated he could support this matter if the requests
were a general increase for all cities, but opposed the request if monies were to be raised on an individual
city basis.
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
October 9, 2000
Page 4 of 8
Councilmember Garfunkel stated he had asked for specific data related to this matter previously, but had
seen nothing to be reviewed at this time. He also commented, because this was a matter of need for
Hennepin County, this matter should be addressed at that level.
Mr. Skramstad stated the LMCD was working with the Sheriff s Department on data such as
Councilmember Garfunkel requested, however, it was not yet available.
Councilmember Stover asked Mr. Skramstad the number of volunteers working for Water Patrol. He
explained there were seven full-time positions with approximately thirty to forty volunteers. He also
explained Special Deputies, such as the volunteers on the Water Patrol, were allowed to stop individuals
and issue tickets for minor violations only.
Mayor Love commented it was his belief the full-time officers to be hired would be devoted exclusively
to Lake Minnetonka for the May through September months of the year. Mr. Skramstad confirmed this
belief. Mayor Love also requested a presentation before the Council in December of this year regarding
this matter. Council agreed.
.
Mr. Skramstad went on to provide updates for Council on the matters of Milfoil Management, Zebra
Mussels-noting none had been found in Lake Minnetonka so far, Management Plan Projects, On-going
Licenses and Permits, issues regarding the Shorewood Yacht Club, as well as a Request for No-Wake
Zone.
Councilmembers Stover and Lizee stated the request by the Shorewood Yacht Club for a No-Wake Zone
established on the South side of Frog Island in Gideon's Bay to be a good one. Both had seen a number
of personaI watercrafts moving swiftly through this area. Mayor Love aIso commented he had seen many
types of watercraft, including sailboats under power, creating a wake through the area.
Mr. Skramstad noted the Upland Farms development to the west of Shorewood near St. Bonifacius, had
plans to dredge 6 Mile Creek, for approximately a half-mile, in an effort to provide new homeowners in
that area with a marina and access to Lake Minnetonka. He noted the LMCD had been working with the
DNR and the City of Minnetrista regarding this matter.
Mayor Love stated his concern regarding this matter. He believed it would be setting a serious precedent
for the future if these plans were to be followed. He requested the greatest diligence by the LMCD in
monitoring this matter. He thanked Mr. Skramstad for his report and time spent on these matters.
.
C. Presentation by Sally Koenecke, Director, Lake Minnetonka Communications
Commission, on Proposed 2001 Budget and Motion Regarding Budget Proposal
Sally Koenecke, Director of the Lake Minnetonka Communications Commission (LMCC), reported on
matters included in the Proposed 2001 Budget. Of particular interest, was the addition of the City of
Loretto to the Commission and the hiring of another full-time staff member for the Commission. She
also noted the City of Mound is not a member, but contributed to the funding for the Commission
through its payment for use of the studio.
Council member Stover asked whether the LMCC had any working relationship with Mediacom. Ms.
Koenecke explained the LMCC to be the government agency that helped to negotiate contracts with
cable companies, such as Mediacom. She also explained the LMCC was available for assistance in
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
October 9, 2000
Page 5 of8
helping people in the area to make sure cable providers lived up to the agreements made with subscribers.
Further, she explained Mediacom had been conducting an upgrade in the Shorewood area which was
complete. However, there were areas where service was not correct, and Mediacom was working to
address those areas. In response to Councilmember Garfunkel's question regarding Mediacom's
reputation for service, Ms. Koenecke responded there have been problems with Mediacom, specifically
in trying to remedy complaints. She noted the company is trying to take steps to resolve these matters by
providing more service representatives at the local, rather than regional level, and providing training to
representatives regarding courtesy on the job.
Zerby moved, Lizee seconded approving the Lake Minnetonka Communications Commission
Proposed 2001 Budget. Motion passed 5/0.
D. Discussion on Liquor Operations - Don Swanby
.
Don Swanby, Municipal Liquor Store Manager, appeared before the Council to speak about the Tonka
Bay Liquor Store. Mr. Swanby explained the lease ran through December, 2001, and had an opt-out
clause requiring a six month notice prior to terminating the lease agreement.
Councilmember Garfunkel stated the purpose for these questions were related to the proposed options for
dealing with the County Road 19 intersection near the Tonka Bay Liquor Store. He further stated the
Council would like to explore various options regarding the intersection and the impact of the removal of
the store at that location.
Mr. Swanby responded he believed a liquor store in that location was nice to have since it is so close to a
number of municipalities. One option which allowed the City to continue sharing revenue with the City
of Tonka Bay would be to move the store to the strip mall directly behind the current location. Other
options could include moving the store to a different location in Shorewood.
.
Councilmember Garfunkel requested more details be added to those proposals. Mayor Love stated he
appreciated the opportunity to have this discussion. Further, he stated the two municipalities seemed to
have a good working relationship regarding the liquor store, and he would like to continue this venture by
utilizing the Smithtown Plaza space. He favored the municipal liquor operation as it provided the City
with some control as well as income to both cities. However, it was also his belief that when it began to
interfere with public safety and welfare, the relationship would need to be terminated. Councilmembers
agreed.
Mayor Love asked that Mr. Swanby report on this matter as well as Finance Director Burton, to
formulate the financial options regarding the liquor store, in addition to pursuing other options should
that relationship need to be terminated.
Councilmember Zerby questioned the necessary time frame for terminating the current lease agreement
with Tonka Bay. Attorney Keane responded the agreement could be terminated at any time with a six
month notice prior to December, 2001.
Councilmember Zerby referenced a letter received from the Tonka Bay City Administrator which
explained that funds designated at the County level for this project will sunset the end of 2000, and need
to be re-instituted in Hennepin County's 2002-2006 Capitol Budget if this project was to move forward.
Engineer Brown noted a decision needed to be made soon as any prolonging of the need for this money
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
October 9, 2000
Page 60f8
would put the funding dollars at risk. He stated it was imperative, in his belief, that both Councils come
to agreement as soon as possible, so that this funding would not be risked.
Councilmember Garfunkel commented, funding aside, the intersection is unsafe. Councilmembers
a~eed. Engineer Brown also commented that while speeds are low in that area, accidents continued to
increase in frequency.
Councilmember Lizee asked Engineer Brown to define the MSA funding referenced so often as many
residents were concerned how this funding was supplied. Engineer Brown explained MSA funds are
funds currently being collected by the State at the gas pumps- not as part of Shorewood's taxes. This
State tax is held in account to help handle projects taking place on major roadways, such as County Road
19. The City initially funds the project, and then the State reimburses the City for the project. Each
"state-aid" City is allotted a certain percentage based on population and mileage of necessary roadway to
be maintained. Shorewood has the ability to utilize approximately $200, 000 annually.
Councilmember Garfunkel stated it seemed in reality the situation was either the intersection be upgraded
or Shorewood would need to be finding other options regarding the liquor store.
.
Councilmember Stover questioned Engineer Brown on his belief regarding the continuation of funding
for this project should alternative 3 not be chosen for this intersection. Engineer Brown responded he
thought a continuation of funding to be unlikely for the other alternatives, because the County had shown
preference for this alternative, and there were other competing funding requests.
Mayor Love complimented Mr. Swanby and staff on efforts at the Tonka Bay Liquor Store noting the
increased profitability and cleanliness at the store.
8. ENGINEERINGIPUBLIC WORKS
A. Discussion on Trail Maintenance for 2000-2001.
Engineer Brown reviewed the standards set for trail maintenance for the 2000-2001 winter season.
He noted the trail standard from last year had been to plow up to one-half the trail, however, there had
not been the necessary significant snowfalls needed in order to test that standard. He stated this standard .
could be utilized again, and reports could be made to Council after significant snowfalls this winter.
Council agreed.
B. A Motion to Authorize Expenditure of Funds from the Water Fund
Engineer Brown reported the Southeast area well had control system failure last week. Because of this,
the well control system would need replacement. The well remained able to function through a manual
system. This required a person to manually operate the well approximately six to eight times daily. He
also noted there would be compatibility between well systems within the City with the purchase of a new
control system for the Southeast area well.
Stover moved, Lizee seconded, Authorizing Expenditure of Funds from the Water Fund. Motion
passed 5/0.

9. REPORTS
A. Administrator & Staff
1. Gideon Glen
Mayor Love provided an overview related to this matter. He noted he had met with Mr. Tom Simms to
discuss negotiations for land acquisition within the City. He shared the benefits to Mr. Simms for having
the City purchase the property. He noted the City had authorized expenditures in the amount of $175,000
to be matched with MCWD dollars in the amount of $200,000. Mayor Love reported Mr. Simms would
accept $450,000. Mayor Love wondered if it would be the desire of the Council to increase the City's
amount of the offer to $200,000, noting this would be the final offered amount.
.
Attorney Keane reported he believed the discussions were productive, and Mr. Simms had acted in good
faith. He noted the City had been very clear in laying out limitations regarding the offer, as well as
providing Mr. Simms with some tax benefits. He encouraged the Council to present a formal offer
regarding this matter. He also noted the City had shown a willingness to expedite closing and move this
matter forward.
Mayor Love commented that the City's appraisal placed this property at approximately $50,000 more
than this formal offer.
Lizee moved, Stover seconded, Authorizing the Mayor to Forward this Letter of Intent to Mr.
Simms. Motion passed 5/0.
2. Skate Park
Engineer Brown reported approximately $18,600 had been collected in donations thus far for the Skate
Park. He also reported the equipment had been ordered as planned and submitted to the Park
Commission for formal approval.
.
In addition, Engineer Brown reported he had filed a formal claim against MNDoT and the contractor
regarding the poor restoration of the Skate Park site. MNDot had stated the contractor working to
overlay Minnetonka Boulevard would be available for overlay for the Skate Park site, and a
reimbursement plan would be worked out in the future for those ~osts.
Mayor Love questioned the anticipated construction schedule for the Skate Park. Engineer Brown noted
the design stage was planned through December, 2000, and equipment could be placed in May, 2001,
once weight restrictions on local roadways were removed.
Councilmember Lizee noted it would be nice to recognize the many people, cities, and groups that had
donated to the Skate Park, and provide an update in the next City newsletter.
Engineer Brown explained, in response to Councilmember Zerby's question, the Park Foundation was
responsible for holding donations for that project as well as working with the kids involved to purchase
equipment. Mayor Love commented the Park Foundation was a non-profit organization, thus, making
donations tax-deductible.

Engineer Brown happily reported the rafters were being placed and much of the brickwork complete. He
also noted the building was progressing on schedule.
B. Mayor & City Council

Re:
Request for Expenditure of Funds for Office Furniture
.
The current furniture for the receptionist stations is in need of replacement for various reasons:
1) The computer desks are not adjustable to provide a comfortable fit and do not meet ergonomic
standards.
2) When reception staff are working on their computers, their backs face the front counter, which
creates an unwelcome appearance to the public and makes it difficult to notice when someone is
standing at the counter for help.
3) The workstations do not provide privacy needed - the public has, on occasion, made comments to
staff about documents the public can see on staff s desk.
4) The workstations are beginning to show signs of age.
5) They do not fit well into the work area, giving a disorderly appearance to the public and making
for inefficient work space.
.
Staff has researched furniture options and has received 3 quotes. The preferred Option #1, which staff
feels would best meet the office needs and addresses those issues noted above, is attached. Option #2,
comparable priced, is less preferred. Option #3 is much higher priced:
Funds for this furniture purchase are available in the Council Contingency Fund.
Staff respectfully requests Council make a motion authorizing the purchase of furniture for the front
receptionist area from MetroSystems at an estimated cost of $3,376.

Enterprise Budget Work-session Date
FROM:
RE:
Staff originally planned to schedule a budget work-session to follow the city council
meeting on October 23,2000. The purpose of the work-session is to review the budgets
for the sewer, water, and liquor store funds, also known as the Enterprise Funds.
Unfortunately, the city's computer network and related software, including the city's
financial software package, has been out of commission for almost two weeks due to a
hard disk crash. This has severely limited staffs ability to prepare for this meeting.
.
Therefore, it is staffs recommendation that a simple motion be approved rescheduling
the enterprise budget work-session date to follow the November 13,2000 council
meeting, ifthis meets with city council approval.
Please advise if you would like additional information or if I can be of further assistance.

RE: A Motion Authorizing Advertisement for Hiring of a Light Equipment Operator
The Department of Public Works has been operating one staff member short, for over 'one year. This
is due to an extended medical leave of absence by one of the department employees. On September
7th, Staff members met with this individual, and representatives, to discuss the possibility of returning
to work. Regrettably, final recommendations indicate that this employee will not be returning to the
position. While the final written resignation has not been received, a verbal resignatiqn was provided
at that meeting. Staff is still pursing the final paperwork for this matter.
.
City Staff is recommending advertising to fill the position of Light Equipment Operator (LEO) for
the Department of Public Works. This position is a union position with salary levels specified in the
AFSCME Local 14 contract.
The Public Works Department has composed a very rigorous process for potential candidates for the
position of LEO. The evaluation process includes an initial scoring of qualifications to determine
candidates for the position. From that point, candidates are given a written test, hands on test with
heavy equipment (conducted at the public works facility), and an interview with three Public Works
Staff members. This process has been very successful in the past for determining the top candidates
for the position.
It is recommended that advertisements for the position be placed in the League of Minnesota Cities
magazine, local papers, and the City of Shorewood web page. If response is limited, Staff would
proceed to place the ad in the StarTribune.
Therefore, Staff is recommending approval of a motion authorizing advertisement for the position of
Light Equipment Operator. If a successful candidate is chosen, Staff will return to the City Council,
with results of the top candidates and a recommendation for hire.

Liability fusurance Coverage Limits
This motion is passed by the City Council each year. Minnesota State Statutes settort
liability limits for governmental units at $300,000 per claim/$750,000 'total claims per
occurrence. The City carries tort liability at statutory limits and has excess liability
coverage of$l,OOO,OOO.
.
The City's insurer, the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT), allows
cities the option of waiving this limit, thereby allowing the payment of a larger claim, up
to $750,000 plus the amount of excess liability coverage for a single claim. By waiving
the statutory tort limit, the City opens itself to larger claims and higher insurance costs.
In prior years, staffhas recommended, and the City Council has elected, to not waive the
statutory limits. It is again the staffs recommendation that the Council approve a motion
that does not waive the statutory tort liability limits for the 2000/2001 insurance renewal.

'.' LMCIT LIABILITY COVERAGE - W AlVER FORM
::? 0 0-0
Cities obtaining liability coverage from the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust must decide
whether or not to waive the statutory tort liability limits to the extent of the coverage purchased. The
decision to waive or not to waive the statutory limits has the following effects:
If the city does not waive the statutory tort limits, an individual claimant would be able to recover no
more than $300,000.on any claim to which the statutory tort limits apply. The total which all claimants
would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would be limited
to $1,000,000. These statutory tort limits would apply regardless of whether or not the city purchases
the optional excess liability coverage.
If the city waives the statutory tort limits and does not purchase excess liability coverage, a single
claimant could potentially recover up to $1,000,000. on a single occurrence. The total which all
claimants would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would
also be limited to $1,000,000., regardless of the number of claimants.
If the city waives the statutory tort limits and purchases excess liability coverage, a single claimant .
could potentially recover an amount up to the limit of the coverage purchased. The total which all
claimants would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would
also be limited to the amount of coverage purchased, regardless of the number of claimants.,
Claims to which the statutory municipal tort limits do not apply ~~not affected by this decision.

This decision must be made by the city council. Cities purchasing coverage must complete and return

Zerby added that Council had approved submitting an offer letter to the owner of the Gideon Glen
property using matching funds of up to $200,000 from the Watershed district. Bix inquired as to the
purpose of acquiring this type of property. Zerby pointed out the drainage table issues, the potential
of trails and green space, and the promise of retaining a natural wetland habitat. Brown added this
project would follow the City's grand path for education and wetland enhancement.
C. Update on Recycling at Freeman (park Commissioner Berndt)
While there was no update on recycling, Themig added that because of this effort, the City of
Shakopee has started determining how they are going to handle the recycling issue. Currently, they
are trying to negotiate into their new contract with their trash hauler the added recycling
responsibility. Zerby piggybacked the complaints received by neighbors ofthe ball fields regarding
trash and recyclables. He asked what, if any, requirement was made of park users. Brown replied
that there is a deposit requirement and trash cleanup agreement.
.
D. Skate Park
· Update on Fundraising Schedule and Progress
Chair Arnst reported than in as little as six weeks, fundraising efforts have raised $18,810. She
shared with the Commission the Funding Status attachment identifying current and future
contributors, as well as, letters of appreciation to contributors.
. Update on Church Parking Lot (Commissioner Puzak)
Nothing new to report.
. Status on Blacktop Surface (Engineer Brown)
.
Brown noted that a formal claim had been submitted to MN/DOT. The next possible solution may
be to hire the contractor, Hardrives Inc., who is currently overlaying Minnetonka Boulevard to
overlay and repair the surface, and bill MN/DOT. The discussion moved on to the skate park, with
Bix sharing her views. While in Santa Barbara, she observed a skate park with great signage, an
attendant, plaques devoted to contributors, and great camaraderie between patrons. She will share
her pictures in an upcoming meeting. Bix brought up the issue of helmet use. Themig questioned
how to enforce helmet requirements without an attendant. Arnst mentioned that Deephaven also
brought up the helmet issue and how to mandate such a requirement without having it policed. Bix
shared the possibility of self-policing the park by the patrons. She said that certain parks require
helmets, and if they are not worn and park personnel spot check the park is then shut down for a
specified amount of time. Puzak believed that while we can encourage them to wear helmets and
self-police, we may be over policing.

A.
Review/Discuss Construction Schedule Proposed by Planning Director
Nielsen
.
Engineer Brown referred to the last line of the Attachment #6A, which says equipment and
construction are to commence once two-thirds funding has been met, and it has been met. With this
in mind, Brown voiced hope to have the overlay done this year, while the concept and design are
costed out. Puzak reiterated the desire of the Commission to move now in order to have the park
open early spring. While Brown agreed, certain load restrictions may cause a problem with this
schedule.
B. Review/Discuss Revised Design Concepts, Vendor Info and Cost Estimates
From Tim Hughes
.
Tim Hughes shared his vision of building the park in three weeks time. With input by he and other
skateboarders they chose what they felt to be the best equipment and design for this park. As
indicated by his attachment, the cost estimate obtained by Ramptech of approximately $16,200 plus
freight seemed to be the City's best buy. Brown shared his experience after asking patrons at the
Maple Grove skate park their opinions. Puzak agreed, that asking other parks may be a good route.
Themig inquired over the possibility of shopping around for additional bids on this design. Brown
asked if everyone was in agreement over the type of equipment in the layout in order to move along
an informal process of RFP collection. Young commended Hughes on his research and asked why
additional bids were necessary. Brown and Puzak suggested obtaining bids on this design, as well
as, one that would include additional pieces. Brown noted that while the per piece price will be
relatively equal, the variables will include other things like construction, the burm, pavement, etc.
Chair Arnst asked Brown if this evaluation process could take place within one month. Hughes
added a sidebar that Chanhassen recently changed their mandatory helmet rule, due to the difficulty
of enforcing it, and instead have requested parents to require their own kids to wear helmets.
C. Decide on Schedule for Construction/Purchase Process
Puzak suggested that he and the design committee harden up a final design plan, obtain the concept
dollar bids, put together a proposal, and present a final recommendation to Council to make
purchase. Due to trying to avoid duplication of other skate parks, Hughes admitted this design has

varied slightly. Since the original concept appeared before the City, two other skate parks have been
built using many of the ideas they originally planned for the Shorewood Park.
6A. Fundraising Idea for Parks
As added earlier, Chair Arnst relayed an idea she recently had for an Annual Golf Tournament to
raise funds for the Parks. She wondered if it might be something that the Commission would like to
pursue. Many liked the idea. Young went on to share a story of his friend who started a successful
charitable Golf Tournament and how the City could learn from him. Based on this persons
experience, it seems public courses are more receptive to charitable events than the private courses.
Arnst asked if the interest was there to warrant a committee to look into this opportunity further.
Berndt went on to add that her father in Sun City, has Chaired many golf tournaments and would also
have a wealth of experience to tap. Brown felt good about the possibility of approaching Bo
Woodtrack to host such an event, not only from the PR benefits, but perhaps it could encourage new
members to join who might be enthused after using the course. Brown encouraged the Commission
to wrap something visual to the fundraiser to give individuals a vision of where their donations will
go.
e.
Themig moved to recommend to Council that the City establish the concept of a fundraising or
charitable event such as a golf tournament, bike race etc. for 2001. Young seconded. Motion
passed 7/0.
5. REVIEW AND COMMENT ON NEXT DRAFT OF RFP FOR EDDY STATION
Chair Arnst commented that the reference to all park ordinances applying to the Vendor was missed.
Brown noted that this might be difficult for a Vendor to decipher all of the various ordinances.
Brown felt this fit a general guideline of what a vendor RFP would contain. However, he added that
in order for a Vendor to submit a legitimate RFP, specific hours of operation are necessary. Themig e
felt an outline of annual hours, or better yet, as Dallman noted, attach a copy of scheduled events
from Community Services. Zerby noted also, that as a potential Vendor, wouldn't it be pertinent to
know about security, phone lines, signage etc. Themig then suggested holding a Pre-Bid Conference
for potential Vendors to have these types of questions addressed. Puzak suggested they set the Pre-
Bid Conference date and include it with the event schedule, map of the area, and RFP to potential
Vendors. Brown set the following dates according to the Commission. The Pre-Bid Conference date
will coincide with the Park Commission meeting of December 12,2000; followed by an RFP due
date of Tuesday, January 2, 200l allowing time to review the RFP's before the January 9, 200l
meeting during which presentations will be heard from Vendors.
7. OLD BUSINESS
Brown reported on an effort by Little League to change the current softball field #5 to a little league
field by building a mound, moving bases and "skinning" the field. Brown directed the Little League
to stop such action until the Park Commission could be given the opportunity to assess the best and
highest need for these fields. With this in mind, Brown noted a resurgence of girls' softball, a
decline in adult softball and the growth of little league. He asked the Commission if they would
choose to be involved in this process. Dallman felt they needed to acquire a copy of park scheduling

from Community Services to make any recommendations. Puzak reviewed that although
historically, the Commission was not involved with Community Services in determining usage,
under their new philosophy the Commission needs a report from them. Brown suggested the
Commission schedule a Work-Study with Community Services to determine and discuss park usage.
Chair Arnst asked this meeting be scheduled for the November 14, 2000 meeting.
8. NEW BUSINESS
Brown reported that Little League will be re-sodding field #1. He also reported that the colors
chosen for Eddy Station were a dark green roof, green trim, natural cedar, with buff block.

RE: A Motion Approving the Concept of a Fundraising Event for Municipal Parks
On Tuesday October 10th, the Park Commission discussed the concept of hosting a fund raising event
to assist in various park improvements. Funds raised could be utilized for capital expenditures in the
parks, such as the Skate Park, Eddy Station, or other capital improvements.
The Commission considered many ideas for fund raising activities. Some of which included the
following:
.
. Golf Toumament
. A City Festival (to be determined)
. Marathons (biking, hiking, etc)
The Park Commissioners approved of the concept, and are seeking support from the City Council for
such an event. If the City Council approves of the concept, a committee may be formed to explore
the feasibility and specifics as to the type of event.
The Park Commission has recommended that the concept of a charitable fundraising event for park
improvements be established. If approved, it would also be helpful for the City Council to comment
on any support or reservations as to the type of activity to be held for this event.

Auulicant: Mark and Sharon Johnson
Location: 26060 Wild Rose Lane
.
Chair Bailey reviewed the procedures utilized in a public hearing. He noted Items approved this evening
would appear on the October 23, 2000, Regular City Council Meeting Agenda.
Director Nielsen explained Mr. Johnson was requesting approximately 250 yards of fill to construct a
driveway for a house to be built on this site. Director Nielsen explained the site to be challenging at best,
noting there was a twenty-four foot drop in topography from east to west on the site, and there were
significant issues related to drainage. In spite of the fact that the applicant was proposing to cut into the
slope on the easterly half of the lot, there was not sufficient fill for the driveway.
Director Nielsen reviewed his recommendations noting the applicant's plan meets City Code
requirements and restrictions. There was significant concern related to the proposed ten percent grade of
the driveway. A suggestion had been made to the applicant to raise the level of the home and driveway by
one foot, thus, allowing issues of drainage to be eased by creating a culvert beneath the drive and
effectively lowering the slope in the driveway. He also noted that erosion control measures needed to be
included in the grading plan as well as showing how water would be conducted around the home.
Finally, he recommended a tree preservation plan completed as part of the building permit process be
signed by a registered landscape architect as there were concerns related to plantings near and upon the
proposed retaining walls.
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
OCTOBER 3, 2000 - PAGE 2
Director Nielsen reviewed the recommendations of the City Engineer as well. As stated previously, there
existed significant concerns related to grading and drainage. Most significantly, there are concerns for
the location of the house and driveway as it related to the surrounding drainage patterns on the site. It
did not appear there was adequate room between the East side of the house and the easterly property line
to construct a drainage swale as could be necessary. Due to these drainage issues and other unresolved
issues that could potentially provide substantial damage to the proposed structure if not addressed, the
City Engineer had requested this item be tabled until these issues were remedied.
'"
The Public Hearing was opened at 7:17 P.M.
Mr. Mark Johnson, 26060 Wild Rose Lane, addressed the Commission and reminded them he was
appearing before them to request a Conditional Use Permit for Excess Fill. He noted the other issues of
concern would be handled through the normal course of the building permit process.
The Public Hearing was closed at 7:18 P.M.
Commissioner Turgeon questioned Director Nielsen what alternatives could be utilized if there was not .
room on the property to provide a necessary drainage swale. He responded a "French Drain" could
possibly be used in that space.
Anderson moved, Woodruff seconded, recommending approval of the Conditional Use Permit for
Fill in Excess of 100 Cubic Yards for Mark and Sharon Johnson, 26060 Wild Rose Lane, subject to
review and approval by the City Planner and City Engineer as outlined in Memorandums
referencing File No. 405(00.26) , and P.I.D. No. 32-117-23-12-0010 respectively. Motion passed 4/1,
with Turgeon dissenting.
*For future reference, please note there are two Planning Commission memorandums on file at City
Hall. One is a memorandum form Brad Nielsen, dated September 1, 2000-referencing File No.
405(00.26). The second memorandum is from Larry Brown, dated Octoberl, 200D-referencing P./.D.
No. 32-117-23-12-0010. Both these memorandums provide detailed analysis and explanation in
response to Commission's concerns.

7:15 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING ii CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR ACCESSORY
SPACE IN EXCESS OF 1200 SOUARE FEET
Auulicant: Steve and Jean Polston
Location: 28215 Boulder Circle
.
Director Nielsen explained the history of this request. Mr. Steve Polston applied for a CUP to build a
detached, single-story garage near the center of his property. His property currently had accessory
structures totaling 573 square feet of accessory space. He proposed building a new attached garage
having 1,140 square feet of area, bringing the total area of accessory structures on the site to 1,713 square
feet.
The structure complies with City Code restrictions and recommendations, with one exception-existing
hardcover on the property was approximately thirty-four percent. This was due to the use of plastic in
landscape beds. Director Nielsen also stated the applicant owns a separate vacant parcel of land to the
east of his property and is willing to legally combine this unbuildable parcel with his homestead property
to increase site size. A suggestion was made to perforate the existing landscape cover to allow drainage
through the plastic. Making use of these two suggestions, the end result would be approximately twenty-
five percent hardcover and would then comply with Shoreland Management requirements.

OCTOBER 3, 2000 - PAGE 3
The public hearing was opened at 7:35 P.M.
Mrs. Jeannie Polston, 28215 Boulder Circle was in attendance and addressed the Commission to explain
there was a title search in progress related to the unbuildable parcel to be combined. Barring any
contrary findings, she did not anticipate any problems with these suggestions.
Mr. Darrell Carver, 27910 Smithtown Road, asked Mrs. Polston if there were to be trees planted around
the new garage. She responded the area around the garage is quite wooded, and while no new additional
trees were to be planted on the south side of the garage, she did not believe Mr. Carver would be able to
see the new garage.
The public hearing was closed at 7:40 P.M.
Commissioner Woodruff questioned whether there was a plan. to plant trees to screen the garage from the
east. Mrs. Polston stated they were planning to plant a few evergreen trees on that side of the garage in
an effort to provide screening.
.
Anderson moved, Woodruff seconded, recommending approval of a Conditional Use Permit for
Accessory Space in Excess of 1200 Square Feet, for Steve and Jeannie Polston, 28215 Boulder
Circle, subject to the applicant providing a landscape plan showing where trees would be planted
for screening. Motion passed 5/0.

· COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT
· REZONING FROM R-IA TO L-R
· CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
· VARIANCE
Applicant:
Location:
Minnetonka Moorings
600 West Lake Street
.
*For future reference, please note there is a Planning Commission memorandum on file at City Hall
from Brad Nielsen, dated September 27, 2000-referencing File No. 405(00.27). This memorandum
explains, in significant detail, the history and analysis surrounding these requests.
Director Nielsen provided a detailed explanation of the issues involved in these requests. He explained
John and Judy Cross, repre~enting Minnetonka Moorings and working through the Shorewood Yacht
Club facility, had submitted an application for rezoning of their property. In doing so, a Conditional Use
Permit, Variance, and an amendment to the Shorewood Comprehensive Plan were necessitated. Involved
in this property and further complicating matters was the recent acquisition of a parcel of land
immediately west of the Yacht Club where Mr. and Mrs. Cross were proposing additional dockage in an
effort to expand their business. In reviewing this matter, Director Nielsen provided information as it
pertained to the existing site and then regarding the expansion site. Some issues pertain to both sites.
First, Director Nielsen explained that any rezoning must be guided by the Comprehensive Plan set forth
by the City. When amended last, efforts were made to pave the way, should an opportunity arise, to
bring the marinas into compliance with the Lakeshore Recreational (L-R) zoning district. In considering
the L-R District Requirements, there are Permitted Uses, Accessory Uses, and Conditional Uses relating
to Single-Family Dwellings, Open and Outdoor Dry Land Storage of Boats and Trailers, Lot
Requirements and Setbacks, Building Requirements, and Special and Specific Conditions. Following is a
brief summary of the comparison between the subject property and these requirements as detailed by
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
OCTOBER 3, 2000 - PAGE 4
~
Director Nielsen. A more significantly detailed discussion of these issues can be found in the Planning
Conunission referendum referenced at the beginning of this Item.
The permitted use in the L-R district was subject to annual licensing procedure and had as its only use
the water-harboring of boats. Specifically, the L-R district stated the water-harboring of boats in
Gideon's Bay must be limited to sailing boats.
The L-R District had off-street parking, a clubhouse building, a storage building, gas dispensing
equipment and boat rental as allowable uses for this area. The Shorewood Yacht Club had all of these.
The storage building on the site was to be removed, however, its proposed use as a dumpster enclosure
was deemed more useful, as a roof over the area would help to conceal it from the Hennepin County
Regional Railroad Authority trail which bisects the property.
With regard to the single family dwelling on the property as part of its Conditional Uses, all setback
requirements were observed, however, it would need to comply with the Shorewood Rental Housing
Code and would need to be inspected for conformance.
While there were many issues to be examined regarding Open and Outdoor Dry Land Storage. of Boats .
and Trailers, the most significant matter seemed to be a need for a detailed landscaping plan for the area
demonstrating a plan for screening of evergreen trees between the parking lot and shoreline, along the
South edge of the property facing County Road 19, as well as maintaining existing vegetation abutting
the Right-of-Way near the H.C.R.R.A trail.
Director Nielsen complimented the Yacht Club on their lighting noting it was very well done for its use
as well as being sensitive in its impact on the neighbors.
There was concern for the boat storage on the site, noting that if all parking sites would be utilized and
boats stored on the site as well, the need would exceed supply. An alternative parking/storage area was
proposed in the vacant southwest comer of the site abutting County Road 19. Parking was considered an
area to monitor and adjust as needed.
The most significant concern overall seemed to be the proximity of parking and storage so close to the
shoreline. While enhanced landscaping would help to mitigate potential problems, it was recommended
that the parking areas near the lake be examined by many agencies in an effort to address issues of
drainage directly into the lake from this site.
.
With regard to Signage found in the Special and Specific Conditions portion of the L-R District Zoning
Code, the Shorewood Yacht Club had three signs while the requirements stated that only two signs would
be allowed. .
At this point, Director Nielsen explored the background related to the expansion site and requests made
regarding this portion of land as it related to the Shorewood Yacht Club. He noted three additional docks
existed on this site primarily for the use of certain residents on Timber Lane.
The applicants would like to add a fourth dock to the existing system, providing thirty-five additional
slips. One of the docks would be maintained as a slip for a property owner at 5585 Timber Lane. The
easternmost of the three docks would be for one of their management boats utilized in assisting
customers in need of help.
.
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
OCTOBER 3, 2000 - PAGE 5
When considering issues involved in the expansion site, Director Nielsen explained, it would be
important to consider issues of Parking and Access, as well as Boat Traffic and Existing Dock Rights.
Parking and Access on the expansion site was recommended to include emergency vehicles only. With
the exception of a proposed boat canopy used to protect the Sailing School students from the elements
and a sailboat storage rack, the site should remain in a natural undeveloped state.
Boat traffic was believed to increase by approximately forty percent as a result of the proposed plans for
this site, however, no dredging of the lake bottom would be required to accommodate the additional slips.
Existing Dock Rights should be maintained for the exclusive use of the residents of 5585 Timber Lane
only as part of consideration of the expansion site.
Director Nielsen summarized his comments noting he believed the plans to be well done and addressed
many issues identified in the past. He stated there would be many improvements to the property and the
expansion and rezoning would allow the City to gain more control over the property. He also noted a list
of names had been submitted to the City noting no opposition to the proposed plans for this site.
.
John and Judy Cross were in attendance and seized the opportunity to address the Commission. Mr.
Cross noted he had few disagreements to the recommendations Director Nielsen had reviewed. He also
noted there was no current need for the overflow parking/storage area, but did not want this to be an issue
at the time it would be needed in the future.
Mrs. Cross addressed the issue of the third sign facing the lake. She stated she considered it more of a
"landscape embellishment" as it was made of rope and occupied a flower bed. She stated the members
liked it, and it could only be seen from the lake, however, it was not needed. She also stated the
neighbors that can see the property have no objection to it being there.
Mr. Cross also expressed disappointment in the necessary delay for formal approval of the
Comprehensive Plan Amendment. Mrs. Cross noted there are forty-one people on a waiting list for the
proposed slips, and they were hoping to have the dockage ready next spring. The timeframe that would
occur as part of the formal approval process would not allow that to happen.
.
Chair Bailey opened the Public Hearing at 8:40 P.M.
Dwayne V., 5585 Timber Lane, stated his concern regarding the noise coming from the hollow booms on
the sailboats, and a concern over the potential overflow lot on the southwesterly comer of the property.
He stated he had lived at his address for twenty-eight years and knew the locale of the proposed driveway
onto County Road 19. He voiced concern for safety in that area should the overflow lot be needed.
James Hancock, 23800 Lawtonka Drive, stated he was very much in favor of these requests as he
believed it to be a more favorable use of property.
Steve and Nancy Linder, 23730 Lawtonka Drive, were in attendance. Mr. Linder addressed the
Commission with his request to reconsider dockage for the Gideon Cove residents. He state it was his
prior knowledge that additional docks had been denied in that area as a general rule, and he was surprised
to see this request coming forward for approval.
Joann Schaub, 5465 Timber Lane, was very concerned for traffic utilizing the proposed overflow parking
area. She questioned Mrs. Cross as to whether emergency vehicles were currently utilizing that area.
Mrs. Cross responded the police may be monitoring that area, but she was not sure. Mrs. Schaub
commented she had seen vehicles removing the chain and driving in on previous occasions.

Julie Ingelman, 23720 Lawtonka Drive, stated her concerns over the timing of this issue, and the Gideon
Cove request for additional dockage being denied. She also noted parking seemed to be quite crowded
on the Yacht Club property, and she would like to see the mess along the H.C.R.R.A. trail cleaned up as
she utilized the trail daily
Dan Puzak, 23830 Smith town Road, expressed concern over the lakeshore and lake bottom. He stated
this area previously served as a drainage area for the Excelsior Sanitary Sewer Treatment facility and it
was his belief that it was one of the most polluted areas of lake bottom in that area. He stated he would
like to see a viable business run in that area with clean-up of the lake bottom. He did not support these
requests due to the muck on the lake bottom potentially being disturbed. He also had concerns for traffic
on Lawtonka Drive. He believed if it was not fenced off, it would create an eyesore in that area.
Donna Delaney, 23760 Lawtonka Drive, stated her support for the improvements to the existing marina
site. She noted she did not hear any noise, and the sailboats are a beautiful view. She did, however, have
concerns regarding the proposed drive down Timber Lane. Regarding the muck on the bottom, she
believed Lake Minnetonka to be a large lake, and she did not see the muck on the bottom affecting the
rest of the lake as a whole.
Judy Cross again spoke to address concerns regarding the proposed driveway entrance. She stated there
is a process in place used for pick-up and drop-off of students for the sailing school. She did not want
the additional responsibility of dealing with students being dropped off in the proposed driveway
entrance area. The current process would continue to be enforced regarding the students being
transported to the sailing school.
.
John Cross also stated that by removing the middle dock of the three on the expansion site, the area
would be left in a more natural state.
Chair Bailey closed the Public Hearing at 9:04 P.M.
Commissioner Anderson stated his two concerns to be related to storage and screening of the boats, and
the close proximity of the parking to the lake. Also, he believed access to Timber Lane should be
controlled.
Commissioner Turgeon commented she had concerns related to proposed versus actual numbers of .
parking spaces on the site. Also, she did not want to see another driveway placed onto County Road 19
in that area. Furthermore, she believed sensitivity should be used when considering implications from
the muck on the bottom of the lake. She stated she would like to approach appropriate agencies and
authorities to find out what is on the lake bottom in this area.
Commissioner Woodruff echoed Commissioner Turgeon's comments regarding the environmental
impacts in and around this area. Commissioner Boehm also supported concerns regarding environmental
impacts on this site. He also expressed concern for the parking situation and proposed overflow area.
Chair Bailey reminded the Planning Commission of the efforts put into the Comprehensive Plan. He
believed these plans to be a positive step forward, and he did not want to lose sight of the opportunity to
bring this property in compliance.
Much discussion centered on how to allow the applicants to move forward with plans although a formal
Comprehensive Plan amendment could not be approved this evening.

Commissioner Anderson commented it seemed as though Mr. Cross had acted in good faith and he
wanted to see the Yacht Club brought into compliance. He noted the approval process can sometimes
appear daunting, and he believed it best to work with the Yacht Club on these matters.
Anderson moved, Boehm seconded, recommending approval of rezoning the parcels in question,
the Conditional Use Permits as presented, and a variance-for John and Judy Cross, representing
Minnetonka Moorings, 600 West Lake Street, subject to final approval of the Comprehensive Plan
Amendment and submittal of a professional Landscape Plan, also a plan for controlling the access
to Timber Lane, and an Engineering Report on the matters of the new proposed parking spaces
and existing parking near the lake to be presented on November 2, 2000, as well as scheduling a
public hearing for a formal Comprehensive Plan Amendment on November 2, 2000.
Commissioner Turgeon stated she believed it would be possible to move forward with these requests.
Commissioner Anderson reiterated that it can be a cumbersome process to move government along, but
he believed the Shorewood Yacht Club to be an asset to the City, and he would like to work with the
Yacht Club to move matters forward.
Motion passed 5/0.
4. RECOMMENDATION REGARDING GIDEON GLEN
Director Nielsen stated the City Council had authorized up to $175,000 for the acquisition of the Gideon
Glen property. The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District had agreed to provide up to $200,000 to help in
the acquisition. Other funding sources were being considered as well in an effort to minimize
expenditures for the property.
He also explained there are a number of purposes for securing this property-one of them being wetland
preservation. He also noted the acquisition of this property would be consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan for the City.
Woodruff moved, Anderson seconded, recommending approval for the purchase of the Gideon
Glen property. Motion passed 5/0.
5. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
Mr. Jerry Brekke, Howard's Point Marina, was in attendance and stated it was good to see the Planning
Commission work as a group to resolve tough issues. He state he had remained at this meeting because
he wanted to pay the Planning Commission the compliment of doing a good job.
Chair Bailey thanked him for his fine compliment.
6. DRAFT NEXT MEETING AGENDA
The next meeting for the Planning Commission would be November 21, 2000, and would include two

.
DATE:
1 September 2000
RE:
Johnson, Mark - c.u.P. for Fill in Excess of 100 Cubic Yards
FILE NO.:
405(00.26)
BACKGROUND
Mark Johnson owns the property at 26060 Wild Rose Lane (see Site Location map-
Exhibit A, attached). His plans to construct a home on the property necessitate placing a
approximately 250 yards offill to construct a driv~way to the new home (see Exhibit B).
This amount of fill, requires a conditional use permit from the City.
.
The property is located in the R-IA, Single-Family Residential zoning district and
contains 40,169 square feet of area. As can be seen on Exhibit C, the site is characterized
by a significant drop in topography. The property drops 24 feet from the easterly
property line to a large drainage way along the westerly side of the lot. An existing sewer
easement extends through the westerly half of the site from south to north. There are two
small wetlands on the property. The drainage way leads to a larger wetland to the north
of the site.
The applicant proposes to cut into the slope on the east half of the lot. The amount of
material coming out of the cut area is insufficient to raise the proposed driveway, thus the
need to bring in additional fill. The applicant proposes to build modular block retaining
walls on the east side of the proposed house and at the wetland buffer line to the west of
the house, forming a "shelf' on which the house will be located. According to the
applicant's plans, the westerly retaining wall will be as high as nine feet. A small
retaining wall at the rear of the house will be seven feet tall. Most of the remaining wall
areas are four feet high or less. Exhibit C shows the location of significant trees on the
property and illustrates which ones will be removed to accommodate the house. Exhibit
D shows how the house will fit into the slope of the land.

~., PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER
Memorandum
Re: Johnson c.u.P.
1 September 2000
ANAL YSIS/RECOMMENDA nON
This report addresses primarily planning issues relative to the applicant's request.
Engineering issues will be addressed under separate cover.
A. Zoning. The proposed location of the home is consistent with the setback
requirements of the R-1A zoning district. The proposed amount of impervious
. surface is only 12.6 percent of the lot area. In addition to topography and building
setbacks, the location of the house is dictated by the existence of the two small
wetland areas on the westerly half of the site. The proposed plan observes a 35-foot
natural buffer area plus a 15-foot building setback, consistent with Shorewood's
wetland protection requirements.
.
B. Driveway Grade. Despite the amount of fill being placed, the driveway grade still
reaches 10 percent. Due to the relative short length of driveway, this is a concern that
will be addressed by the City Engineer under separate cover.
C. Grading Drainage and Erosion Control. These items will be addressed in detail by
the City Engineer. From a planning perspective, the proposed grading plan must
adhere to the 3: 1 maximum slope requirement contained in Shorewood's
development regulations. It should be noted that the applicant's engineer has not
shown erosion control barriers to the west of the proposed house. The plans should
be revised to include erosion control and construction limits on the east side of the
wetland buffer monuments. It is extremely important that the grading plan show how
water will be conducted around the house. Construction of the retaining walls should
be subject to review and approval by the City Engineer.
.
D. Landscaping/Tree Preservation. Given the sanitary sewer easement and wetlands on
the westerly half of the site, the proposed home is located in the only place it can be
on the lot. While a number of significant trees will be lost to build the home, tree
removal is considered to be as little as is practical. For example, very little rear yard
area is being created. Thus, trees to the north of the house will be preserved. It is
recommended that the tree preservation plan submitted with the building permit
include details as to how the trees that are to remain will be protected. The pland
should also be signed by a registered landscape architect, who should address the
suitability of the proposed spruce trees on top of the retaining wall at the rear of the
house. Some consideration should be given to planting something on the west side of
the lower retaining wall where it is the tallest.
Based upon the preceding the applicant's conditional use permit is recommended-
subject, of course, to the recommendations contained herein and those of the City
Engineer. A letter of credit, based upon the applicant's landscaping plan should be
required to guarantee that the required landscaping is installed by 1 September 2001.

RE: Application for Conditional Use for Fill in Excess of 100 Cubic Yards
26060 Wild Rose Lane '
PID No 32-117-23-12-0010
This application' has been submitted by Mark and Sharon Johnson to place approximately 250 cubic
yards at 26060 Wild Rose Lane. This site is located on the north side of Wild Rose Lane,
approximately 750 feet west of Meadowview Road. Attachment 1 is the site location map for the
property. It is the applicant's desire to bring in fill material to create a house pad for a single-family
residence. ",
.
Existing Conditions:
The 0.92-acre site currently exists as wooded lot mixed with saplings . and mature vegetation (Refer
to Attachment 2). The topography varies by 26 feet vertically. The high point of the site is located
at the southeast corner of the property at an elevation of 968. The low point of the site is at the
northeast comer at an elevation of 942. A 20-foot drainage and utility easement bisects the property
in a north - south direction. This easement runs in favor of the Metropolitan Council Environmental
Services Division (MCES) for a trunk sanitary sewer main.
Grading and Drainage:
As mentioned above, the objective of the proposed plan is to create a flat house pad area along the
slope that falls from the east to west (refer to Attachment 3). The plan indicates depths of fill that
vary from approximately 9 feet at the southwest corner of the home, to 2.3 feet at the southeast
corner. Also proposed, is the use of two modular block retaining walls.

The first retaining. wall is approximately 60 feet in length and is located on the south side of the
driveway. The height of this wall varies from 1.0 to 3.0 feet. The second wall is approximately 145
feet in length and is located along the West Side of the driveway and house pad. At its highest point
the west wall approaches 9 feet in height. Walls that exceed 3.5 feet in height must be designed and
signed by a Registered Professional Engineer in the State of Minnesota. These plans must include
the structural design, drainage design and backfill materials to be used for the walls.
Attachment 4 is an excerpt form the City of Shorewood's Stormwater Management Plan. This map
indicates that the subject site lies withinsubwatershed NC 7. The lOO-year high water level (HWL)
for this subwatershed is 941.4. In accordance to the stormwater management plan, a two-foot
vertical separation must be maintained above the 100-year HWL and the lowest floor elevation. The
proposed low floor elevation has been shown at 952.9, which exceeds the 2.0-foot separation
requirement.
.
While the house meets the HWLcriteria, there remains concern for the location of the house and
driveway as it relates to the surrounding drainage patterns for the site. A considerable amount of
drainage originates fromthe lot east of this site, and a portion of Wild Rose Lane that flows towards
the location of the proposed driveway and southerly portion of the house; The driveway grade has
also been shown at a 10 percent grade. The City of Shorewood has maintained a policy that an 8.0
percent grade is the recommended maximum. Grades in excess of 8.0 percent will be allowed if
there is not a practical alternative. It appears that raising the house pad elevation 1.0-foot will make
a substantial difference in the driveway grade.
Another issue that needs to be addressed is how drainage is to be conducted from the east side of the
house to the natural drainage way. It does not appear that there is adequate room between the East
side of the house and easterly property boundary to construct a swale, to insure that drainage does
not impact the home. The applicant's engineer will need to address this issue as part of the final plan
revisions.
.
Erosion Controls:
The plan does not address erosion controls or best management practices for the site. This is a
requirement by the City of Shorewood and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District. . Plans shall be
revised to include heavy-duty sit fence between the site grading and downstream areas.

Water Service and Sanitary Sewer:
The closest location for municipal water service is at the intersection of Wild Rose Lane and Eureka
Road. Since it is not practical to extend water service for a single lot for this distance, a private
residential well has been proposed for the site.
.
The plans indicate that a sanitary sewer $ervice is to be extended from the house, across the
southerly property boundary, and into an MCES manhole located within Wild Rose Lane. It should
be noted that there is a sanitary sewer main located within Wild Rose Lane. However, the current
proposed low floor elevation may prohibit use of this line. The applicant's engineer will need to
demonstrate that the existing sanitary sewer main can not serve the site, before utilizing the trunk
sewer infrastructu,re.
If calculations prove that service must be obtained by MCES, and not the City's main, the applicant's
engineer must submit a petition to the City of Shorewood requesting utilization of the MCES
infrastructure. This petition will be accepted by the City and forwarded onto MCES for review and
approva~ if appropriate. . .
Recommendation:
.
Most of the issues discussed in this report are centered on grading and drainage. Since the
unresolved issues have the potential of substantial damage to the proposed structure, Staff is
recommending that this item be tabled until such time as the applicant's engineer can address these
issues in greater detail.
Revisions to the plans should address the following issues:
1. Walls that exceed 3.5 feet in height must be designed and signed by a Registered Professional
Engineer in the State of Minnesota. These plans must include the structural design, drainage
design and backfill materials to be used for the walls.
2. The applicant's engineer shall revise the grading and drainage plans to include existing contour
elevations and proposed contour elevations at a scale not to exceed 1"=20'. Plans shall indicate
positive drainage around the proposed house pad.

3. The applicant's engineer shall demonstrate, by way of calculation, that the sanitary sewer located
in Wild Rose Lane is not accessible for the proposed house pad. Upon such proof, the
applicant's engineer shall provide a letter of petition to the City of Shorewood requesting the use
ofMCES infrastructure.
4. The grading and drainage plan shall include the appropriate erosion control features, including
heavy-duty silt fence, between the upstream grading and downstream areas of the site.
5. The applicant's engineer shall demonstrate the need for a driveway grade in excess of8.0
percent, if appropriate.

RE:
Polston, Steve - C.U.P. for Accessory Space in Excess of 1200 Square
Feet
FILE NO.:
,405 (00.25)
BACKGROUND
.
Mr. Steve Polston has applied for a conditional use permit to construct accessory space in
excess of 1200 square feet on the property located at 28215. Boulder Circle (see Site Location
map - Exhibit A, attached). Mr. Polston proposes to build a detached, single-story garage
near the center of his property (see Exhibit B). Since the area of the garage, when added to
existing accessory structures on the site, exceeds 1200 square feet, a C.U.P. is required.
The property is zoned R-1A1S, Single-Family ResidentiauShoreland and contains 81,631
square feet in area. As shown on Exhibit B the site is occupied by the applicant's home, an
attached garage, a small utility shed and a tennis court. The existing garage contains 504
square feet of area. The shed contains only 69 square feet, for a total of 573 square feet of
existing accessory space. The new attached garage will have 1140 square feet of area,
bringing the total area of accessory structures on the site to 1644 square feet.
Elevations of the proposed garage are shown on Exhibits C and D. The existing home
contains 2964 square feet of floor area above grade, between tw~ stories. The east side
elevation of the house (Exhibit E) illustrates the architectural character and type of materials
used for the home.

ANAL YSISIRECOMlMENDA TION
Section 1201.03 Subd. 2.d.(4) of the Zoning Code prescribes criteria for granting conditional
use permits for accessory space over 1200 square feet. Following is how the applicant's plans
comply with the Code:
a. The total area of accessory buildings (1644 square feet) does not exceed the floor area
above grade of the existing home (2964 square feet).
b. The total area of accessory buildings does not exceed 10 percent of the minimum lot size
for the R-1A1S zoning district (.10 x 40,000 = 4000 square feet).
c. The proposed garage addition complies with R-1A1S setback requirements, with one .
exception - existing hardcover on the property is approximately 34 percent. A
significant amount of hardcover on the property.is attributed to the use of plastic in
landscape beds. The conditional use permit process provides an opportunity to reduce
hardcover on the site, even though an additional building is being added.
First, the applicant owns a separate vacant parcel of land to the east of his property. He
is willing to legally combine this unbuildable parcel with his homestead property to
increase the site size. Second, we have suggested that the existing plastic in the
landscape beds be perforated to allow drainage through the plastic. In the long run, this
will benefit the landscaping, in addition to drastically reducing hardcover. The end result
of these two actions actually gets the property to 24.7 percent impervious surface and
into compliance with shoreland management requirements.
d. The design and proposed materials for the detached garage are consistent with the
architectural character of the existing home.
.
Based upon the preceding analysis, it is recommended that the applicant's request for a
conditional use permit be granted as proposed.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor and City Council
Brad Nielsen, Acting City Administrator
Larry Brown, Director of Public Works ~
October 18, 2000
FROM:
.
DATE:
RE: A Motion to Adopt a Resolution Approving Change Order 1,
Freeman Park Sewer and Water Project.
City Project 99-05
The City of Shorewood has entered into a contract with Thomas and Sons, Inc. for installation of
sewer and watermain along the ditch of Eureka Road, portions of Freeman Park, and along a portion
of the LRT Trail (refer to Attachment 1). The contractor started construction last week, and has
made good progress through Freeman Park.
.
As indicated above, the proposed alignment includes installation of water main along the west ditch of
Eureka Road, between Shorewood Ponds and the Freeman Park entrance on Eureka Road. This
utility was to be placed between the sizeable telephone line and gas main that parallels this route.
Utility locations completed during the design phase of the project indicated that there was just
enough room to install the watermain between the existing edge of roadway and private utilities.
Recent excavation in Eureka Road has proven that the utilities do not lye as located. AS part of the
Gopher one Locate Program ("Call before you dig") utilities were located prior to excavation. All
utilities within close proximity were hand located, as required by law. After such location, the
contractor proceeded to perform the required machine excavation. It was not soon after, that it was
discovered that a major telephone line had not been located properly by the telephone company. Due
tQ the missed location by the private utility company, the line was severed. Telephone crews worked
around the clock to repair the severed telephone line.
Mis-location of utilities is one of the more frustrating parts of construction. Only two weeks ago a
gas main on another project was severed which was not located properly by the utility company. A
majority of the private utility providers have resorted to contract field personnel for such services.

Freeman Park Sewer & Water
Change Order 1
October 18, 2000
Page 2 of2
Many instances of severed utilities occur each week due to the challenge of locating utilities
underground by contracted personnel that did not witness the installation of the utility.
After the found line was properly located, it was determined that approximately 400 feet of the
project is too narrow to install a watermain by conventional trenching. To complete the last 400 feet
of the project, the line must be directional bored (refer to Attachment 2). While this will enable
completion. of the watermain loop, a change order is required to increase the total contract amount.
Attachment 3 is Change Order 1 for a net change of $24,000 to the project.
.
With the change order, the construction project remains under the budgeted amount for the project.
It should be noted that the change order provided is approximately $26,000 less than what would be
required, based on the current contract prices. Staff has renegotiated a new contract price from the
original price of$150.00 per lineal foot to $85.00 per lineal foot.
Therefore, Staff is recommending approval of the attached resolution that accepts Change Order 1
for the Freeman Park Sewer and Water Project in the amount of $24,000. A resolution is attached
for your consideration.

FROM:
RE:
Claims and vouchers scheduled for payment
The city's computer network and related software, including the city's financial software
package, has been out of commission for almost two weeks due to a hard disk crash.
Repairs are in process and Larry Brown has been working very hard to fix the system,
however certain financial functions are unavailable to us at this time, including
processing checks for vendor payments. When necessary, we have been typing checks
by hand, however this is impractical for the typical check run due to the large quantity of
items.
.
Therefore, we have prepared for council review a list of payables for which advance
approval for payment is requested. These items will be processed for payment when the
computer system is repaired, which should be early next week.
Thank you for your understanding.
