Executive Summary
Shorewood City Council Regular Meeting
Monday, August 9, 1999
Former Park Commissioner Chuck Cochran will be presen~d with a plaque of appreciation for his
service to the City.
Agenda Item #3A: This resolution authorizes advertisement for bids for the 1999 Bituminous
Overlay Project. . Each year the City performs approximately $80,000 worth of overlays, as
programmed in the 5 year Capital Improvement Program. Bids are to be opened on September 1,
1999.
Agenda Item #3B: At the last meeting the Council directed staff to prepare findings of fact,
approving a conditional use permit for David Kracker. This resolution allows Mr. Kracker to
have accessory space in excess of 1200 square feet of area. Approval requires a four-fifths vote
by the Council.
Agenda Item #5A: APT Minneapolis, Inc. (Aerial Communications) has applied for a conditional
use permit to lease space at Shorewood's West End Water Tower site for PCS antennas and
telecommunications equipment. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the
C.U.P., subject to staff recommendations and review and comment by the Minnetonka School
District. The School District meets on Thursday night. They technically have until 13 July to
comment, under the terms of a lease agreement between the District and the City. Staff will
forward their comments upon receipt. The motion, assuming School District comments are
received is to direct staff to prepare a findings of fact and. if approved, a water tower lease
agreement. If School District comments are not received prior to Monday night's meeting, this
matter may have to be tabled to the 23 August meeting. Approval of the C.U.P. requires a four-
fifths vote by the Council.

"J PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER
Executive Summary. City Council Meeting of August 9, 1999
Page 2
Agenda Item #5B: After several months of study, the Planning Commission has completed a draft
revision to the L-R, Lakeshore Recreational zoning district. This section of the Zoning Code
provides for multiple-dock facilities. The intent of the revision is to make the Code somewhat
easier to comply with in order to encourage existing facilities to bring their properties into
conformance with City standards. Representatives of both the Howard's Point Marina and the
Shorewood Yacht Club were actively involved in the review process. The draft in the packet
includes strikeouts and additions so that you can see what changes have been proposed. A clean
draft will be distributed at the meeting Monday night. Approval of this amendment requires a
four-fifths vote by the Council.
Agenda Item #6: LMCD representative Bob Rascop will be present to discuss the year 2000 budget
and other issues relating to the LMCD.
.
Agenda Item #7: Staff recommends a budget work session be set for Monday, August 30. A
resolution must be passed on September 13 setting a tax rate. If further budget work sessions are
needed, they could be set at the August 30 work session.
Agenda Item #8: The city councils need accept or reject the Police Department's budget by
September 1. Chief Litsey will not be present. If you have any questions, please feel free to call
me before the meeting.
Agenda Item #9: Mr. Steve Pahl wishes to subdivide his property, creating a "flag lot". Since his
request is contrary to City policies and ordinances regarding back lot development, he is
reluctant to pay for surveying of the property or the applicable City fees for processing the
application for fear of having his request denied. Staff strongly urges Council not to render any
type of decision on this request without the required minimum information and the required
application fees. If you have any questions relative to this matter, please do not hesitate to call
the City Planner prior to Monday night's meeting.
.
Agenda Item #10: This resolution establishes the posting of a School Speed Zone on Smithtown
Road near Minnewashta Elementary School. This speed zone will be in effect when children are
present, and will be posted at 20 miles per hour. Staff is recommending approval of the
resolution.
Agenda Item #11: This is an opportunity for the City Council to review the priorities they set in the
beginning of the year. The mid-year status of each is listed to help with Council discussion.

Review Agenda
Lizee moved, Zerby seconded to accept the agenda as presented. Motion passed 5/0.
2. REVIEW OF MUNICIPAL WATER POLICIES
Planning Director Nielsen recapped the current water policy presenting background information,
the most pertinent issues, current Council consensus, and policy alternatives as outlined in
handouts to Councilmembers attached to the memo from staff regarding City Water Discussion -
Study Session dated 16 July 1999.
In discussing the policy alternatives, the following concerns were addressed:
1.
Provide City water as economically as possible - explore ways to reduce costs of water
main extension
All were in agreement.
2. New development (more than three lots) should provide City water where it is available
and financially feasible (e.g. $10,000 per unit or less).
Councilmember Lizee asked for clarification on the statement, "more than three lots." It was
decided to change the wording to read, "four or more lots."
Councilmember Garfunkel expressed his opinion that people should not be forced to connect to
City water. This includes new developments of 4 or more.

CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MINUTES
JULY 19, 1999 - PAGE 2
Councilmember Lizee disagreed, stating that the Council is responsible for the financial health of
the community. She added that City water lasts much longer than a well, and likely longer than 2
or 3 wells at the same location.
Councilmember Zerby stated that he is in favor of four or more new sites hooking up to water
where financially feasible.
Mayor Love stated agreement with Councilmembers Lizee and Zerby.
3. Consider super-majority rule of the residents (e.g. 67%) as being demand for City water.
Councilmember Garfunkel expressed agreement, and favors 67% over the 500/0+1, as this seems
to pit neighbors against each other.
Mayor Love stated that 50%+ 1 could be the trigger for a feasibility study, not for actual hookup.
He felt that the 67% is a very high standard and will provide a strong support for any hookup .
project before it even comes to the City.
Administrator Hurm pointed out that the neighborhood now pays for the feasibility study.
Councilmember Garfunkel suggested this cost come out of the water fund.
Mayor Love agreed that this suggestion seems reasonable since that is where any revenue would
go if the hookup was done. Mayor Love also questioned how the "neighborhood" is determined.
Is it an entire street, or if the first 10 houses got together and requested water, would they be
considered as the "neighborhood."
Councilmember Garfunkel advised using the policy as a baseline, not "set in stone" since at some
time the Council may have to overrule the policy.
4.
Explore demand for water with all street reconstruction projects
- consider super-majority rule of residents as demand
- City Council can initiate projects on 4/5th vote
.
All were in agreement.
5. Prepare engineering cost estimates for various logical extensions of watermain - to be
used to advise residents of approximate cost only; feasibility studies will still be prepared
based upon interest; estimates to be updated annually.
Engineer Brown cautioned that these would be estimates only. They would not be held up as a
completely accurate representation of the cost.
All were in agreement.

JULY 19, 1999 - PAGE 3
6. Plan ahead for water - leave right-of-way if nothing else.
All were in agreement
In discussing the issues, two additional suggestions were made:
1. Consensus was to note in the Comprehensive Plan that exploring system deficiencies and
solutions for them will be an area of further study.
2. Consensus was reached that 50%+ 1 would be the trigger for a neighborhood to begin a
feasibility study for an accurate cost of water hookup.
Mayor Love stated that the only substantive disagreement was for the new development and
whether the policy should force hookup for developments of four or more.
Council member Garfunkel again stated his disagreement, but conceded to consensus of the
Council.
Engineer Brown presented a notice that was sent to residents regarding the Amesbury well,
detailing a typical watering ban which has been imposed since the main well failed. The City is
working on replacing the pump, that failed.

C. Consideration of a Motion Approving a Concept Plan for Park Structure at
Freeman Park
City Engineer Brown presented a floor plan for a multi-purpose building at Freeman Park, listing
some possible uses for such a building. The Park Commission recommended three stalls for
both restrooms and additional space for the picnic pavilion. Cost estimates total $249,929, which
would consist of $200,00 from the Park Fund, and $50,000 from the Sanitary Sewer Fund. The
Park Commission is asking for approval of the concept plan and for staff to continue researching
alternate funding sources.
Councilmember Zerby stated his support and noted this building is needed at Freeman Park.
Councilmember Garfunkel questioned what staff has found regarding alternate funding.
.
City Engineer Brown and Administrator Hurm stated that it is hard to search for funding unless
you can ask for something specific. With concept plan approval, this can be better handled.
Zerby moved, Lizee seconded to approve a Concept Plan for Park Structure at Freeman
Park. Motion passed 5/0.
D. Consideration of a Motion to Adopt a Resolution Authorizing Preparation of
Preliminary Design Plans for Trail along Covington Road and Vine HilI

.
City Engineer Brown reported on a Public Information Meeting held on July 13, 1999 by the
Park Commission. He advised that some concerns discussed were safety, cost, materials, and
impact on the surrounding vegetation. He noted the first segment of trail is located on the north
side of Covington Road, which extends from the existing sidewalk along Silverwood Park, to
Vine Hill Road. The length of this segment is 1,700 feet. The second segment of trail is an off-
street trail on the west side of Vine Hill Road, and would extend from the existing trail south of
the intersection of Waterford PlaceNine Hill Road, to 190 feet north of Waterford Place. The
total length of this segment of trail is 2,870 feet.
City Engineer Brown stated that neighbors were concerned about asphalt versus concrete for the
trails, and Brown then presented estimated costs for the segments using either material.
Councilmember Zerby stated this plan seemed very acceptable to the neighborhoods.
Mayor Love noted that there seemed to be some desire for buffering in some areas.
Zerby moved, Lizee seconded a motion to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 99~055. "A Resolution
Authorizing Preparation of Preliminary Design Plans for a Trail along Covington Road
and Vine HilI Road." Motion passed 5/0.

E. Consideration of a Motion to Adopt a Resolution Authorizing Site Selection
Studies Funding for a Skate Park Contingent Upon Support of Other South
Lake Cities
Commissioner Puzak reviewed the background on this project by explaining that a young man
named Matt Pike, who is a resident of Shorewood, approached the Park Commission for help in
creating a place for skateboarders and in-line skaters, as these activities are not welcome in most
places. Two sites are available in the area and this project would be multi-city with other
communities and councils involved.
Administrator Hurm presented a draft of the resolution supporting this project and contingent
on Mayor Love involving other cities.
Councilmember Lizee urged coverage by the paper on this issue, and asked if Matt Pike could
attend a City Council meeting.

placing telecommunications equipment on the west water tower and the Planning Commission
vote of 7/0 in support. Bailey then reported on the completed chapters of the Comprehensive
Plan and the public meetings to be held on these chapters.

13th of August. Nielsen then summarized the request for a Conditional Use Permit for David
Kracker and Jodi Rolland, stating that staff recommends approval.

7. REQUEST FROM FRIENDS OF SOUTHSHORE CENTER TO SUPPORT FUND
RAISER
Mr. Bob Gagne was present to answer questions from Councilmembers.
.
Mayor Love stated he considers the facility an asset to the community.
Mr. Gagne stated his belief that the Friends of Southshore Center should be compensated for
their work of the past few years.
8. DISCUSSION WITH TOM WORKMAN REGARDING TRANSIT ISSUES &
LEGISLATIVE UPDATE
State Representative Tom Workman was present to address the issue of Shorewood opting out of
the Metro Transit System. Representative Workman presented the desire of the Governor for a
light rail system and the odds of this happening, which are not high. Representative Workman
stated he agrees that Shore wood is not getting its money's worth regarding the transit system, and
he is prepared to help Shorewood in whichever direction they wished to go.
.
Representative Workman stated he is hearing that the Council does not want to get rid of transit,
but wants to get equal service for funds being paid.
Councilmember Garfunkel agreed Shorewood should either get the service paid for or stop
paying.
Mayor Love stated he would like to see more opportunities for Shorewood residents to use a
transit system.
Administrator Hurm stated a needs assessment had been suggested with the Metropolitan Transit
as well as talking to other south lake cities to find out if there is interest in joining the effort.
Representative Workman stated all the south lake area cities are probably in the same situation.
He would be willing to work with just Shorewood or a group cities collectively, but there are
pros and cons to each option.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
JUL Y 26,1999 - PAGE 6
Councilmember Stover questioned what it would take to remove the legislation governing transit
in the Shorewood area, and would Shorewood have an option to opt out.
Representative Workman stated the most probably partner for Shorewood would be Excelsior. If
Shorewood proceeds with the opt out option, it would attract attention as it would be taking
transit services away from others. The 1984 legislation would have to be reopened to make this
possible, but felt the time is right to do so. He felt that there would be a greater chance of
success if Shorewood did this alone.
Councilmember Zerby asked what the procedure would be to reopen that legislation.
Representative Workman briefly explained there were others in the south metro area that were in
the same situation in the past that were granted the option to opt out. He stated it does take
special legislation to allow the opt out option. He noted if the opt out were approved of the
100% of the transit dollars collected from Shorewood citizens, 10% would go into the metro
transit system, and 90% would stay with the new opt out system. He stated the next step would .
be for the Mayor and City Council to present a formal request.
Representative Workman also stated his opposition to the continuation of local governments
having to pay sales tax. He explained some of the reasons why this may have not been repealed
during the last legislative session.
Mayor Love thanked Representative Workman for his attendance and stated his appreciation for
the support.
9. DISCUSSION WITH POLICE CIDEF LITSEY ON SHOREWOOD POLICE
OFFICER POSITION
Police Chief Litsey presented his request for an additional officer, as very few personnel
increases have taken place as opposed to the rise in service needs. He also reviewed the option to
roll the Shorewood officer into the regular South Lake Police Department. He noted if that
doesn't provide enough coverage, then possibly some extra funding for overtime could be
considered. Litsey requested direction on whether this option would be considered at the City
Council level.
.
Mayor Love asked for more clarification on the overtime.
Chief Litsey stated it would provide overtime for any extra needs that came up, such as traffic
control.
CounciImember Stover asked what would happen if it was proven that a Shorewood officer was
needed again.
Chief Litsey clarified that staffing is not being reduced, the officer is still there, just not exclusive
to Shorewood.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES.
JULY 26, 1999 - PAGE 7
Mayor Love stated that the other joint power cities seem to be open to the request of an
additional officer.
Councilmember Zerby questioned if there is a way the Shorewood City Council can be better
informed about the enforcement of speed limits in Shorewood.
Councilmember Stover stated that some studies have been done on speed in the City.
Chief Litsey stated that sometimes it is proved that the actual speed on a road is not as high as
perceived.
Consensus of the Council was positive regarding the request for an additional Police Officer.
Mayor Love stated he would report this consensus to the Coordinating Committee.
.
10.
CONSIDERA TION OF A MOTION TO ADOPT A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE
PLAN SPECIFICATIONS AND ESTIMATE AND AUTHORIZE AD FOR BIDS
FOR THE TH 7 ACCESS CLOSURES
City Engineer Brown presented the project guidelines, listing the closures and changes to various
intersections, and cost estimates for each as presented to Councilmembers in their packets. Staff
recommends approval of this resolution.
Mayor Love stated he has received information from a concerned citizen who was notified by
MNDOT that many of the trees they have planted would be removed.
City Engineer Brown stated he had just heard about this, and Shorewood can try to work with
MNDOT to minimize the impact of the loss of their screening.
.
Councilmember Garfunkel questioned if more traffic will be directed down Lake Linden Drive
due to these closures.
City Engineer Brown stated more traffic will move down Lake Linden Drive.
Councilmember Garfunkel expressed concern about this additional traffic.
City Engineer Brown stated he will study the impact and report any anticipated problems to the
Council.
Zerby moved, Stover seconded a motion to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 99-057. "A
Resolution to Approve Plan Specifications and Estimate and Authorize Ad for bids for the
TH 7 Access Closures." Motion passed 5/0.

11. CONSIDERATION OF A MOTION TO ADOPT A RESOLUTION MAKING
APPOINTMENTS TO THE LAND CONSERV ATIONIENVIRONMENT
COMMITTEE
Mayor Love stated that four candidates were interviewed prior to the regular meeting. He also
pointed out that on the resolution, "Council member" and "Jim Hurm, City Staff' should be
stricken, as they will not be official representatives. Mayor Love thanked the candidates for their
interest.
The names and terms for the newly appointed committee members are as follows:
Tom Schmid 1/31/2002
Frederic Bruno 1/3112002
Dave Gosen 1/31/2001
Lucinda Kircher 1/3112001
One additional opening, term ending 1/31/2000, is still available.
.
Stover moved, Garfunkel seconded, to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 99-058, "Making
Appointments to the Land 'Conservation / Environment Committee." Motion approved
5/0.
Councilmember Lizee pointed out the Land Use Coalition meeting on August 25th which may be
of interest to this new committee, the Planning Commission, and possibly other City
Councilmembers.
Mayor Love assigned the task of convening the first meeting to Frederic Bruno, to occur no later
than August 31. All Council members concurred.
12.
CONSIDERA TION OF A MOTION APPROVING AN ORDER FOR REMOVAL
OR REPAIR OF A HAZARDOUS BUILDING
Owner: Scott Gysland
Location: 4812 Femcroft Drive
.
Planning Director Nielsen reported on numerous code violation complaints regarding the house
at 4812 Ferncroft Drive. He explained there is an occupant in one portion of the house, serious
water damage, rotting studs, and several other hazards exist. The option of repair may not be
feasible, as the structure is so far gone so staff recommends adopting this order.
Mr. Scott Gysland, 4812 Ferncroft Drive, stated the 4814 address has no water damage. He
stated the property is up for sale, since he does not have the time or money to fix it. Currently he
lives at 4812 and his daughter lives at 4814. The building is a duplex.
Mayor Love stated these types of circumstances are difficult for the Council. He indicated that it .
would be difficult to bring this structure into compliance. However, with the health and safety
aspects taken into consideration, he is inclined to support staff recommendation.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
JULY 26,1999 - PAGE 9
Councilmember Zerby asked why the memo from Planning Director Nielsen stated that time is of
the essence.
Planning Director Nielsen stated it is of the essence because the property is for sale and a new
owner should not be faced with these issues. He noted that Mr. Gysland needs to be responsible
for the problems of his house.
Mr. Gysland stated he cannot afford to live there and fix this structure, which is why he would
like to sell, in hopes that someone will buy who is able to fix the structure, or replace it with a
single family home.
Mayor Love noted that State codes are in violation as well as City codes, and the Fire Marshal
has also deemed this building a hazard.
.
Councilmember Zerby questioned what motion is needed right now, a motion for an order to

16. ADMINISTRATOR & STAFF REPORTS
A. Engineer's Report on Deephaven Sign on Shorewood Property
City Engineer Brown reported that a few Deephaven signs are within Shorewood. In talking with
Bob Larson of Deephaven, he stated that the signs were placed where they are for visibility .
reasons. Engineer Brown stated he suggested they move the signs into Deephaven.
Councilmember Stover stated she would like to support staff in their request for Deephaven to
move the signs.
B. Discussion Regarding Waterford Place Retaining Wall
City Engineer Brown reported on the failure of the Waterford Place retaining wall. The face of
the wall lies on the right-of-way line, and the wall actually lies behind the right-of-way line.
Therefore, technically, Waterford Place would be the owners of the wall. A structural engineer
has been consulted who estimated repair at $75,000, and a complete restructure may be about
$140,000. No additional funding would be available. He explained that staff believes the wall
benefits the homeowners and they should be responsible. Of most concern is the safety of the
wall. Staff suggests direction from Council and the appointment of a liaison to the homeowners
association.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
JULY 26, 1999 - PAGE 11
Administrator Hurm questioned what the final decision is on the ownership of the wall.
City Engineer Brown stated most likely the property owners who abut the wall are the owners.
Mayor Love questioned City Attorney Keane on this issue, asking if he had looked into the
legalities of ownership.
City Attorney Keane stated he had not but he could check with the homeowners association to
find out if there is any reference to ownership of the wall.
Mayor Love suggested he and one other Councilmember be liaisons to the homeowners
association.
.
Council member Lizee volunteered her time as co-liaison with Mayor Love. Lizee also
questioned whether a retaining wall is the only answer to the slope.
City Engineer Brown stated a slope could be reconstructed, although it would be very massive.
Mayor Love asked if terracing would be an option.
City Engineer Brown stated it is possible, but generally doesn't provide any additional cost
savings or strength to a single retaining wall.
C. Consideration of a Motion Directing Staff to Research Right-of-Way Issues
Along Smithtown Road
.
City Engineer Brown reported that in the Capital Improvement Program, Smithtown Road
reconstruction is mentioned, and a trail could possibly also be constructed along with that
project. A trail portion has been suggested by the Park Commission for along Smithtown Road
west of Eureka Road. However, it may be prudent to analyze properties east of Eureka Road as
well. He stated there are still issues unresolved with regard to ownership of right-of-way along
Smithtown Road. He noted the City Attorney had suggested that an "Owners and Encumbrances
Report" could possibly be done for each property to research out vested interest.
City Attorney Keane noted he will report back to the Council as more information is gathered.
Mayor Love directed staff to report back after researching the options more fully.
Hurm reported that he and Finance Director Rolek attended a Metropolitan Council Environment
Services' budget meeting. He noted it is one of the MCES's goal to reduce expenditures in the
coming years. He added the issue of grants and loans for inflow and infiltration programs was
raised.

City can now proceed with cleanup at the homeowner's expense.
Mayor Love directed the cleanup to be commenced as soon as possible.
Also of interest, Nielsen reported the owners of the Shorewood Shopping Center have presented
plans for a "face-lift" of the center, and a Conditional Use Permit for a revised sign plan will be
forthcoming.
17. MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL REPORTS
Mayor Love reported on a local Mayors' meeting three weeks ago. One concern that surfaced
was with regard to the LMCD's lake density requirements affecting multi-docks and marinas. He
reported a meeting on this issue is to be held Wednesday,. August 25. He suggested the City's
LMCD representative appear before the Council at an upcoming meeting to discuss this and
other issues. He added this should be done on a quarterly basis.
.
Mayor Love reported during the walk on the Island on Saturday, July 24 there were some
concerns raised about the following issues: speed (residents indicated good police presence, but
speeding was still very high); dry hydrants; and pedestrian safety, specifically keeping ground
cover down beside the road. He suggested a meeting with the neighborhood association to
discuss these issues.
Councilmember Zerby stated there was talk that additional signage on the Island might help deter
traffic on the Islands and perhaps help reduce speeding problems.

RE:
APT (Aerial) - Conditional Use Permit for Telecommunications
Facilities at West End Water Tower Site
FILE NO.:
405(99.07)
BACKGROUND
.
In April of this year the City Council authorized American Portable Telecom (APT), also
known as Aerial Communications, Inc., to make an application for a conditional use
permit to locate telecommunications facilities at 26352 Smithtown Road (see Site
Location map - Exhibit A, attached). The property is the site of the Minnewashta
Elementary School and Shorewood's west end water tower. APT proposes to erect
telecommunications antennae around the stem of the water tower and build a small
equipment shelter at the base of the tower.
The property in question is zoned R-IA, Single-family Residential. The school property
contains approximately 15 acres, of which the City leases a 100' x 100' parcel for the
water tower. The lease agreement between the City and the School District specifically
provides for the use of the site for telecommunication facilities as well as the water tower.
The School District will be asked to comment prior to the City Council taking formal
action on the conditional use permit. Planning Commission recommendations will be
forwarded to the District after the public hearing for the C.U.P.
The proposed antennae will be located around the stem of the water tower, approximately
137 feet high. Although the applicant initially suggested that equipment cabinets did not

5. A.
Memorandum
Re: APT Conditional Use Permit
1 July 1999
require a building, staff advised that any equipment should be housed in a shelter similar
to the one located at the southeast area water tower site. The proposed brick-faced
building is slightly less than 9' x 15', containing approximately 135 square feet. It
measures 9.5 feet in height. The brick will match the color of the school building, and
the roof will have cedar shakes.
Telecommunications facilities are addressed in Section 1201.03 Subd. 21 of the City
Code. This section of the Code was adopted in October of 1998, following a moratorium
that extended from February to the end of October last year.
Exhibits pertaining to this request include the following:
.
B-1 through B-8: Applicant's Request Letter
C-l through C-6: Applicant's Engineer's Letter
D-l and D-2: Photo Images of Proposed Facilities
E: Existing and Proposed APT Coverage
F: Minnewashta School Property and Surrounding Area
G: Proposed Site Plans
H: Proposed Landscaping
I: Proposed Building Elevation
J: Proposed Tower Elevations
A public hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, 6 July 1999. Garrett Lysiak, the City's
telecommunications consultant will be there to answer technical questions, and the City
Attorney will be there to update the Commission on legal issues relative to
telecommunications facilities.
.
ANAL YSIS/RECOMMENDATION
Telecommunications facilities are governed by the Telecommunications Act of 1995.
Shorewood has adopted its local regulations consistent Federal requirements. These are
found in Section 1201.03 Subd. 21.ofthe City Code.
A. Land Use. For the most part, telecommunications facilities have been limited to
commercial zoning districts within the city, although the Code does allow the use of
public property for this purpose by conditional use permit. While the Code states that
there is no obligation on the part of the City to sell or lease public property to
telecommunications carriers, the Planning Commission had at one time recommended
existing tower facilities (Le. City water towers) be used first before constructing
additional freestanding towers.
B. Code Requirements. Much of the current Code is intended to address new,
freestanding tower sites. Several provisions, however, are relevant to location of
facilities on existing towers:
-2-
Memorandum
Re: APT Conditional Use Permit
1 July 1999
1. Finish. The proposed antennae must be finished to match the color of the existing
water tower.
2. Fencing. As shown on Exhibits G and H, the applicant proposes an eight-foot
high, chain link fence enclosure between the proposed building and the base of
the water tower. Although allowed by the Code, barbed wire security strands at
the top of the fence are not proposed.
.
3. Landscaping. During initial meetings with the applicant, staff advised that the
building and landscaping should be similar to that which are located at the
southeast area water tower site. This is considered to be one of the more effective
examples of screening found in Shorewood. Both the building and the
landscaping are consistent with southeast area design. Proposed landscaping is
shown on Exhibit H and illustrated with photo imagery on Exhibits D-I and D-2
(color copies of these two exhibits will be presented at the meeting on Tuesday).
4. Stealth. As difficult as it can be to disguise antenna facilities, locating them on
existing towers or water towers is undoubtedly less visually obtrusive than
building new freestanding towers. As evidenced by the facilities located at the
southeast area water tower, the ground facilities can be screened from view quite
effectively. The photo images in Exhibits D-l and D-2 provide an accurate
depiction of how the facilities will appear.
.
5. Evaluation and Monitoring. The new code requirements provide for initial and
ongoing monitoring of FCC radiation emission requirements. The City's
telecommunications consultant has addressed emissions in a separate report, dated
2 July 1999 (see report from Garrett Lysiak, Owl Engineering & EMC Test Labs,
Inc.). Any future lease agreements between telecommunications carriers and the
City will provide for annual monitoring and, if necessary, testing.
6. Engineering. The City Engineer will address structural concerns and issues
related to the use of the water tower under separate cover.
Any approval of this conditional use permit should be subject to the following:
a. Review and comment by the Minnetonka School District.
b. The recommendations of the City Engineer with respect to structural and
operational issues.
c. The recommendations of the City's Telecommunications Consutltant.
d. The applicant must enter into the City's lease agreement, which should be
updated to include the annual monitoring requirement.
e. Prior to any construction the applicant must provide bids for the proposed
landscaping, from which bids a letter of credit, one and one-half times the amount
-3-
Memorandum
Re: APT Conditional Use Permit
1 July 1999
of the landscaping will be required. The L.O.C. must extend for two growing
seasons. If construction is to take place this year, required landscaping must be in
place before the end of the growing season.
f. Prior to any construction the City Engineer will require an additional letter of
credit or cash escrow relative to the work being done on public property and to
the tower itself.
If you have any questions relative to this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me prior
to the 6 July meeting. .

Dear Mr. Nielsen:
Please fmd enclosed an application for a Conditional Use Permit to construct a Personal
Communications Services ("PCS") wireless communications facility within the City of
Shorewood. Summary information is provided in Exhibit A attached hereto.
The proposed site is a PCS communications facility to be co-located on the City's West
Water Tower on Smithtown Road. The site encompasses ground space equal to an area of
approximately 400 square feet. The antennas are to be located on the stem of the water
tower below the bowl. Radio equipment will be located within a block building to be
constructed on the ground next to the tower. Complete A & E drawings depicting this
project accompany the attached application.
.
API' selected this site based on the following criteria:
· Coverage and capacity requirements for the service area as identified by
our Radio Frequency ("RF") Engineers.
· Consideration of applicable zoning and permit requirements;
· A willing and experienced landlord;
· Absence of topographic obstructions such as towers, hills, tall buildings, and the like.
PLEASE REFER TO THE LEITER AND ATTACHMENTS FROM API''S RF ENGINEER.
STEVEN RAMBERG. WHICH LETTER ACCOMPANIES THIS APPLICATION. FOR
FURTHER DISCUSSION REGARDING SITE SELECTION.
The Conditional Use Permit
City of Shorewood Zoning Ordinance provides that the following factors be considered
when deciding whether to grant or deny a Conditional Use Permit:
Page 1 of 8
Exhibit B-1
APPLICANT'S REOUEST LETTER
Dated 1 June 1999
(A) The establishment, maintenance or operation of the conditional use will promote
and enhance the general public welfare and will not be detrimental to or endanger the
public health or safety.
Response. The proposed site will not cause any hazardous or detrimental effects to
any person at the site or surrounding areas. PCS transmissions operate at very
low power levels. API' complies with all radio frequency radiation exposure
guidelines of the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC"). API' engineers
have calculated the worst case scenario for exposure to be eight times below the
level limit set by the American National Standards Institute ("ANSI"). Moreover, co-
location of the proposed communications facility on the West Water Tower
promotes one of the central purposes of the City's Ordinance for Telecom-
munications Towers and Facilities (Section 1201.03, subd. 21(a)(4)).
.
(B) The conditional use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other
property in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially
diminish and impair property values within the neighborhood.
Response. The proposed site will not adversely effect the use and enjoyment of
other property in the immediate vicinity, as we propose to co-locate on an existing
structure and our equipment building is designed to match in style and
appearance the existing school building. All radio equipment will be housed within
a block building and is further $elf-contained in cabinets. The radio equipment
does not emit any noise, smoke, fumes, glare or odors. Site visits will be infrequent
because the operation of the site will be largely computerized.
(C) The establishment of the conditional use will not impede the normal and orderly
development and improvement of surrounding property for uses permitted in the district.
.
Resvonse. Allowing a site to be located on the West Water Tower is consistent with
the purpose and intent of the general zoning ordinance, comprehensive plan and
the City's ordinance for Telecommunications Towers and Facilities and has been
previously approved by the City for AT&T Wireless Services, Inc. and for Sprint
PCS at the East Water Tower. Co-location on the West Water Tower will not impede
future development of surrounding property, as APf will lease only 400 square feet
" adjacent to the water tower for construction of the equipment building. Screening
and safety features will be provided in accord~ce with the City Zoning Ordinance.
(D) Adequate utilities, access road, off street parking, drainage and other necessary
site improvements have been or are being provided.
Response: The location of the site is on the West Water Tower pursuant to an
easement agreement with the Minnetonka School District No. 276. Utilities are
abundantly available at the site and an access road currently provides ingress and
egress to the base of the water tower. The current site provides for pJ::oper off street
parking, drainage and all other necessary site improvements.
Page 2 of 8
Exhibit B-2
(E) Adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide ingress, egress, and
parking so designated as to minimize traffic congestion in the public streets.
Resvonse. The location of the site is on the West Water Tower located on the
Miniwashta ElementaIy School which provides its own ingress and egress to the
property. Traffic congestion or inteIference with traffic on the surrounding public
streets due to the site will be minimal because site visits will be infrequent (once a
month or so).
(F) The conditional use shall, in all other respects, conform to the applicable
regulations of the district in which it is located.
.
Response: Allowing a site to be located on the West Water Tower is consistent with
the purpose and intent of the general zoning ordinance, comprehensive plan and
the City's ordinance for Telecommunications Towers and Facilities. This concept
has been previously approved by the City for AT&T Wireless Services, Inc. and for
Sprint PCS at the East Water Tower.
(G)
Compliance with and effect upon the Comprehensive Plan.
Resvonse: Allowing a site to be located on the West Water Tower is consistent with
the purpose and intent of the general zoning ordinance, comprehensive plan and
the City's ordinance for Telecommunications Towers and Facilities, and this
concept has been previously approved by the City for AT&T Wireless Services, Inc.
and for Sprint PCS at the East Water Tower.
.
APT's PCS system will provide the infrastructure needed to meet the growing
demand for wireless services. This facility will improve residential and business
communications services as well as providing efficient and reliable wireless 911
emergency service.
(H) That the specific provisions applicable to the conditional use listed in the related
chapter of the Zoning Ordinance are or will be satisfied.
Resvonse: The site is designed to meet the specific provisions applicable to the
conditional use as listed in the Zoning Ordinance.
Build-out
A pre-assembled Base Transceiver Station ("BTS"), which contains radio frequency
transceivers and self-contained batteries for back-up power, is connected to amplifiers,
commercial electrical service and public telephone line service. A control unit equipped
with its own built-in HVAC will also be located on the site, housed by the BTS unit. The
control unit will be under 24-hour security and fire sUlVeillance by APT. Up to twelve
directional antennas will be mounted on the water tower at the following orientations: 000
degrees, 120 degrees, and 240 degrees from true north.
Page 3 of 8
Exhibit B-3
.
.
Antennas
Antennas attached to the tower j site will transmit and receive FCC-approved radio signals,
which carty voice and data between the PCS system users and the APr central switching
network. The physical size of the antennas may vaxy. The antennas required for this site
are approximately about 7 feet long and 10 inches wide.
The antenna sites necessaxy for PCS coverage are defined by the RF engineering design.
Surrounding topography, trees and buildings also playa role in arriving at the
appropriate antenna height.
Equipment
The Base Transceiver Station (BTS) houses radio, computer and climate control
equipment for this site. This equipment is powered by NSP (using normal 120j240 volt,
single phase, AC electricity). It will be connected to the APr mobile switching center via
traditional telephone lines. No water or plumbing will be necessaxy for any of the sites
which we erect, since no people are present at our sites on a daily basis. There will only
be occasional, brief visits (average about once a month, for 1 to 3 hours per visit) for
routine maintenance. APr will pay for all utilities (i.e., telephone and electric service) used
by APr at the Site.
The PCS system operates on a specific set of channels licensed exclusively to APr by the
FCC for provision of high quality mobile seIVice for the benefit of the public good. All APr
wireless sites must be operated in accordance with our FCC license to provide PCS seIVice
to this area. A copy of APr's license and licensed frequencies accompanies this
application.
Background
In early 1995, the FCC auctioned licenses for radio frequency spectrum in the range of
1,850 to 1,990 MHz in51 Major Trading Areas (MTAs) of the United States, including the
Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan region, for use as PCS. APr was the high bidder in the
auction for one of the PCS licenses in this region, as well as five other major markets in
the United States. APr is a subsidiaxy of Telephone and Data Systems, Inc. ("TDS"). TOS
is a Chicago-based telecommunications company which provides cellular and PCS
wireless communications and local telephone seIVice to more than 3 million customers
throughout the United States through its subsidiaries, including United States Cellular
Gorporation. TDS Telecommunications Corporation and Aerial Communications Inc.
What is PCB?
PCS is a new wireless telecommunications seIVice that is personalized to the
individual. PCS technology will allow a variety of telecommunication seIVices.
including:
· Local and long distance telephone services;
Page 4 of 8
Exhibit B-4
· Cable services;
· Portable telephones and facsimile transmission capability;
· Text messaging:
· Numeric paging using the portable phone screen;
· Voice mail service;
· Caller ID and call forwarding;
· International roaming capability; and
· In the future, computer use and video images will be available through the
PCS network.
The types and features of services that each subscriber desires will be customized to
his or her unique needs. Reduced power needs will allow smaller units and longer
battery life. Telephone numbers used in PCS handsets will be assigned specifically to
an individual user, a Personal Communications Number (PCN). The main advantage
of a PCN is access to a variety of features and services with a single telephone
number. A PCN will also allow the network to track the individual at all times.
.
Benefits of PCS over Cellular
PCS has several advantages over existing cellular telephone service, including
improved service quality through the use of digital technology, enhanced service
features, increased mobility, more compact radio equipment, and lower pricing.
.
Digital Technology: PCS utilizes the latest digital technology. This
technology facilitates improved call clarity and clean data communi-
cation. A PCS customer will be able to communicate through voice and
data simultaneously using the same handset without interference to
either activity. In addition, computer users will be able to run
applications and retrieve data faster from remote locations using their
handset. . PCS technology also assures far less static and fading than
traditional cellular technology and results in fewer dropped calls.
Improved Security: Digital technology provides more security than
analog, the technology traditionally used by the cellular industry. Calls
in digital format cannot be overheard with the simple scanners currently
used to eavesdrop on cellular calls. Eavesdropping on PeS trans-
missions is technically possible yet requires special equipment and
technical skill which most eavesdroppers lack. User verification systems
eliminate cloning, and encryption devices prevent calls from being
overheard.
Improved Equipment: PCS utilize~ smaller antennas and advanced
telecommunications technology. This combination will result in less
expensive rates to the consumer. In addition, equipment will be more
compact both at the handset and at the antenna site. Handsets will be
lighter than today's cellular flip phones and utilize longer lasting
batteries. PCS transmits at a higher frequency than cellular. As
Page 5 of 8
Exhibit B-5
frequency increases, the distance the wave is able to travel becomes
shorter. PCS thus requires more antennas than is necessary for a
cellular network. APT has been working diligently to lease antenna sites
on city water towers, existing communication towers, and existing buildings
prior to attempting to lease any sites for new towers.
Increased Mobility: PCS allows greater mobility through seamless
roaming across PCS and landline service areas. The portable PCS
handsets may be taken anywhere and will function with consistent
clarity and power.
.
One Telephone Number: Each individual subscriber of PCS will be
assigned a Personal Communications Number (PCN). The main
advantage of a PCN is that it will allow access to a variety of features
and services with a single telephone number. A PCN will also allow the
network to track the individual at all times, regardless of location or
service provider.
Lower Cost for Service: PCS service providers anticipate that the cost
of PCS to their customers will be significantly less than the cost of
traditional cellular service. While the initial cost for the service and
handsets will be similar to that of cellular, as demand increases, both
carriers and manufacturers will be able to lower their price significantly.
Eventually, PCS service will be less expensive than cellular and may be
close to the cost of home telephone service. For example, while cellular
currently costs between $.32 and $.39 per minute, APT strives to provide
its PCS service for as little as $0.10 per minute. APT currently offers
rates as low as $0.07 per minute to qualified customers.
Increasing Demand
.
There is a growing demand for wireless services as evidenced by the fact that
subscriptions to cellular telephone systems in the U.S. are expanding at the rate of
over 28,000 new subscribers per day. APT's PCS system will provide the infrastructure
needed to meet the growing demand for wireless services and provide service to a broader
cross-section of the community than existing cellular systems. PCS will improve
residential and business communications services and provide more efficient and reliable
wireless 911 emergency service.

RE: Application for a Conditional Use Permit
Dear Mr. Nielsen:
I am one of the Radio Frequency (RF) Engineers employed by API' and have worked in the
field of RF transmission in the wireless industry for 6 years, following completion of a
bachelor of science degree in electrical engineering (B.S.E.E.). This letter responds to the
Telecommunications Towers and Facilities Zoning Ordinance (Section 1201.03, Subd. 21)
requirement that co-location of antenna support structures be encouraged by the City.
This letter will briefly explain how API' selected the West Water Tower for installation of
another communications facility. The maps attached hereto are relevant to this
discussion.
"Coverage" can be defmed as the ability to complete calls from a mobile phone. In
order to complete calls, sufficient signal strength must be present. Factors which
significantly limit the amount of signal available to complete calls include
terrain and foliage, including leafy deciduous trees. We operate in the frequency band
of 1950 to 1965 MHz, and the dampening effect on the amount of available signal in
this band is significant.
In and around the City of Shorewood, dense foliage significantly reduces the amount
of signal present from surrounding sites. The resulting effect is a coverage gap in the
area of Smithtown Road north of Highway 7. API' communications facilities currently
exist on water towers in the cites of Excelsior, Victoria, St. Bonifacius and Spring
Lake Park, which provide sufficient signal strength to complete calls on. our network
except for the coverage gap in Shorewood. API"s goal is to provide ubiquitous
coverage in the metropolitan area and seeks to fill in areas with additional sites as
needed.
Specifically, existing API' sites include the following locations:
Page 1 of 3
Exhibit C-I
APPLICANT'S ENGINEER'S LETTER
Dated 1 June 1999
Excelsior Water Tower: Coverage is within the city of Excelsior and surrounding road,
including Highway 7 and highway 3, but coverage ends at
approximately Tonka Bay;
Victoria Water Tower: Coverage is within the City of Victoria and along Highway 7.
Coverage ends at Highway 7 north of the site and cannot reach
the Smithtown Road area.
St. Bonifacius Water Tower: Coverage is within the city of St. Bonifacius. Coverage
from this tower reaches along Highway 7 but is limited
to just west of the City of Shorewood and does not
reach the southern end of Lake Minnetonka at
Smithtown Bay.
.
Sprin~ Lake Pk. Water Tower: Coverage is within the cities of Mound and Spring Lake
Township and portions of Lake Minnetonka. Unable to
provide sufficient coverage along Smithtown Road due
to dense foliage.
Our primary coverage objective is in the area encompassed by Highway 7 and
Smithtown Road in the City of Shorewood. At the present time, we have sufficient
coverage in the cities of Victoria, Excelsior, St. Bonifacius and Mound/Spring Lake
Township. The only alternative to the West Water Tower is a communications tower
owned by Nextellocated next to the Tonka Bay Water Tower, which tower is more
than % mile from the West Water Tower. No other towers or antenna support
structures exist within a % mile radius of the West Water Tower. More importantly,
use of the Nextel tower would provide too much overlap coverage with our existing site
in Excelsior, while continuing to leave a coverage gap in the area of Shorewood.
.
With respect to the issue of RF interference to public safety communications and to
broadcast transmission, API' is regulated by the Federal Communications
Commission ("FCC") and fully complies with the standards set forth for allowable
signal transmission within our allocated PCS band. I have attached a document
which provides specifications on our equipment as regarding spurious emissions
and fIltering of API' base station equipment so as to ensure public safety and private
sector communication network signals maintain their full integrity.
In October 1997, the FCC adopted new radio frequency exposure regulations for
maximum permissible exposure ("MPE") for PCS, among whom API' belongs. The FCC
holds the radio licensee responsible to ensure that its transmitting facilities are in
compliance with FCC guidelines. Specific exposure limits have been established and
are regulated by the FCC. Studies were conducted by a team of 120 experts from the
fields of research, public and private sectors which then produced a set of standards
to which API' and other PCS providers must comply. API' is fully compliant on all
sites, in accordance with the standards for maximum permissible exposure limits as
set forth by the FCC.

Dear Mr. Larry Brown:
I have reviewed the APT communications facility proposal for use of the west
water tower. The analysis included a review of the proposed site as well as the two
existing permitted tower locations as potential locations of the facility.
I used the data supplied by APT to determine the existing system coverage without
including the proposed west water tower. My review and analysis indicates that the
present system has a coverage gap in the area of Highway 7 and Smithtown Road.
I then included the APT proposed use of the west water tower. The analysis shows that
the coverage gap is eliminated by the proposed location.
~
The next step in the process was to examine the system coverage on using the two
existing approved communications site; the East water tower and the tower near the city
hall. In both instances the coverage provided by these two sites did not provide the
system coverage that is requested by APT.

I also reviewed the radio frequency exposure that would be produced by the proposed
communications system. Since the west water tower is located in close proximity to a
school the RF exposure issue was carefully analyzed. The APT system is proposing to
have the antennas mounted approximately 135 feet up the tower. I assumed a "worst-
case" antenna configuration that used an omni-directional dipole antenna so that the
.
power level directly under the tower could be easily detennined. The APT system is
proposing to operate with an output power of 1,000 watts (erp) which produced a RF
radiation level of 0.02 mw/cm2.
I then raised the power level of the transmitters up to the maximwn allowed by the FCC
for the APT license. which is 1,640 watts (erp). Using this maximum value the RF
radiation was calculated to be 0.032 mw/cm2. The present maximwn limit that is allowed
for an uncontrolled location is 1.3 mw/cm2. This means that the APT proposal would
.
only reach a value of 2.46% of the present safety standard limit. The only additional
requirement that I would place on the proposed system would be that they install
appropriate signage at the entrance to the water tower to notify workers of the RF
radiation source on the tower. This signage would be the same that is already used on the
east water tower.
In summary. the APT proposal is compliant with the technical requirements of the
ordinance in that they have demonstrated that the location requested is required for their
system performance and that the other existing towers in the city do not provide the

needed coverage area. Additionally, the proposed APT system would not exceed the
present FCC requirements for RF radiation exposure limits for uncontrolled places to
members of the general public. One requirement that could be imposed is that RF
radiation measurements are performed on the system after it is completed to verifY the
radiation values and also check on the integrity of the ground based equipment.
I will have the graphs prepared for the public meeting on July 5 to show the results of my
analysis. If you have any questions in this matter please contact me directly.

RE:
Application for Conditional Use Permit
Installation of Antenna Panels-Minnewashta Water Tower by APT
.
American Portable Telecom (APT) has applied for a Conditional Use permit to install panel type antennas
on the Minnewashta water tower. Four antenna panels are to be mounted on the stem of the water tower
at a mounting height of 137.5 feet (refer to attachment 1).
Existing Site Conditions:
.
The existing water tower is located by easement, on the Minnewashta Elementary School property at
23350 Smithtown Road. An access-utility easement is located along the centerline of the school parking
lot, in addition to a 100 foot by 100 foot square area, which the water tower has been centered on (refer
to attachment 2). The water tower is 200 feet in heighr with a "bowl diameter" of 5 5 feet 10 inches.
Site Plan I Building Review:
APT is requesting the location of an on site masonry building 18 feet, 8 inches long by 8 feet, 8 inches
wide, to house transmitter and amplifier equipment for the antennas. A frame structure or "wave bridge"
is shown north of the structure to support cables extending from the structure to the water tower (refer to
attachment 3).
The wave bridge is to be eliminated from the proposal. The applicant shall revise the plans to include a
buried conduit, which is to extend from the base of the water tower to the interior slab of the accessory
structure. This is similar to the current construction at the east water tower. The proposed cabinet
adjacent the proposed wave bridge can then be mounted directly to the north face of the proposed
building.

The applicant's engineer shall provide the City with details of all penetrations into the water tower.
Details of any penetrations for cables, wires, or conduits shall indicate how open air spaces shall be
covered or caulked to seal off all air spaces to the interior of the water tower. This is important to
prevent items such as fireworks from being stuffed into the interior of the tower.
Plans also indicate that the structure will be wired for backup electrical power. It appears from the
location of the generator sockets on the building, that placement of a generator near the sockets will
block access to the water tower door for larger equipment. It is suggested that the structure be shifted to
the south to allow for placement of a generator between the structure and the water tower. It is
recommended that a Class 2 aggregate pad be constructed to allow for proper support of such a
generator. It is recommended that the area originally proposed to be fenced in to protect the "wave
bridge" can now be ut!lized to secure the area where the generator would rest.
.
Any generators brought to the site are to remain at the site only during periods of power outage. After
power has been restored all emergency generation equipment shall be removed from the site, promptly.
Any generators utilized shall be sound attenuated, and shall meet a maximum overall sound level of 75
decibels (dba), at a horizontal distance of7 meters.
Easements I Legal
The City of Shorewood has an agreement with the School District for location, access, maintenance and
operation of the water tower. The lease agreement for this site also allows cellular communication
equipment to be located and operated within the easement obtained by the City. The School District is to
be provided the opportunity to review and approve the application for each communication vendor.
.
Plans submitted do not include a boundary survey for the site. The applicant will be required to provide
the City a drawing indicating the easement for access, as it relates to the location of the utility and
accessory structures. This drawing must be prepared and signed by a Registered Professional Land
Surveyor licensed by the State of Minnesota. .. ~
Utilities:
The site plan does not address the location of existing utilities. Plans need to indicate the location of
watermains, storm sewer and electrical lines.
The proposal indicates that the site is to utilize 120-amp 240-volt electrical service, with sockets provided
on the building for backup emergency power generation. Plans are to be revised to show the source of
power and location of the electrical utilities to the proposed building.

Page 3 of4
Attachment 4 indicates the location of the watermains in the area. The proposed building structure
should be located further west, to provide a minimum separation of 10 feet between the footprint of the
building and the existing fire hydrant. This will allow for repair of the hydrant and valves, if needed.
It appears that the proposed location of the building will block access to the existing electrical meter for
the water tower. Plans shall be revised to show the existing meter location, and provide adequate access
for the reading of the meter and repair of existing electrical lines.
Electromagnetic Fields and Radiation Levels:
.
The City of Shorewood has hired an independent communications consultant, Mr. Garret Lysiac of Owl
Engineering & EMC Test Labs Inc., to review APT's proposaL Mr. Lysiac's memorandum is included as
an attachment to the Planing Director's memorandum of review.
Miscellaneous:
If approved, the Applicant shall be required to enter into a lease agreement with the City of Shorewood
which includes, but is not limited to, lease rates and schedules, modifications to equipment, periodic
inspection of all equipment by the City's consultant, on going monitoring requirements and notification
procedures.
The applicant shall be required to provide the City of Shorewood a letter of credit in the amount of
$5,000 to insure that the water tower construction/modifications are completed properly.
.
The applicant shall provide the City of Shorewood structural calculations for modifications to the water
tower, and must be signed by a Professional Structural Engineer by the State of Minnesota,
Recommendations:
1. The wave bridge is to be eliminated from the proposal. The applicant shall revise the plans to
include a buried conduit, which is to extend from the base of the water tower to the interior slab
of the accessory structure.
2. The applicant's engineer shall provide the City with details of all penetrations into the water
tower. Details of any penetrations for cables, wires, or conduits shall indicate how open air
spaces shall be covered or caulked to seal off all air spaces to the interior of the water tower.
3. Any generators brought to the site are to remain at the site only during periods of power outage.
After power has been restored to the site, all generation equipment shall be removed from the site
promptly.

5. The applicant shall be required to provide the City a drawing indicating the easement for access.
as it relates to the location of the utility and accessory structures. This drawing must be prepared
and signed by a Professional Registered Land Surveyor licensed by the State of Minnesota.
6. Plans shall be revised to indicate the location of all existing and proposed watermains, water
services, water valves, hydrants, storm sewers and electrical lines, services and meters.
7.
The Applicant shall be required to enter into a lease agreement with the City of Shorewood which
includes, but is not limited to, lease rates and schedules, modification to equipment, periodic
inspection of all equipment by the City's consultant, on going monitoring requirements and
notification procedures.

water tower, and must be signed by a Registered Professional Structural Engineer licensed by the
State of Minnesota.
10. Site-Civil plans shall be signed by a Registered Professional Civil Engineer licensed by the State of
Minnesota, prior to final approval.

Subject: PCS Antenna
Dear Brad Nielsen:
Re the public hearing scheduled for today, July 6:
We are residents of Noble Road in Shorewood, looking
directly at the water tower on the Mnwshta School property.
We are very much opposed to the installation of any PCS
antennae on the tower, mostly because we don't want to look
at them for the rest of our lives.
We also have concerns about the potential hazards that these
antennae may present to the children at the school over the
long term.
Please register our opinion. Please DO NOT use this tower
for antennae!!
Sincerely,
Mark and Marla Bookhout

antenna on Minnewashta school
Dear City Council,
I am writing to discourage you from agreeing to place a cel/ phone
antenna on the watertower at Minnewashta school. The use of the antenna will
cause some level of radiation. While this level is low, the exposure could
be significant due to the long amount of time the children are at school. I
am also concerned about the effect of the radiation on young children.
Shorewood already has adequate cel/ phone coverage for it's
residents. I don't believe the possible risk to the children is worth the
monetary gain.
Please vote no to the plan to put a cel/ phone antenna on
Minnewashta tower.

L-R LAKESHORE RECREATIONAL DISTRICT:
Subd. 1. Purpose: This District is intended to recognize the desirability for areas to serve the
lakeshore recreational needs of the City which of their very nature are by geographic
necessity located in proximity and adjacent to residential areas of this community.
Lake Minnetonka is the largest single park and recreational facility available for use
by the citizens of this City and the providing of an opportunity for access to that
facility is, in the opinion of the City, an adjunct of zoning by the City. Recognizing
the primary residential nature of Shorewood, it behooves the City to subject such
possible areas available for access to the lake to close scrutiny and limitation so as to
insure that use of such land does not unduly infringe upon property rights and public
health, safety and welfare of others residing on nearby residential sites.
.
Subd. 2. Permitted Uses: The following are permitted uses in the L-R District as regulated
herein with special limitation requirements and conditions attached as provided in

APPENDIX A
DRAFT 2000 LMCD BUDGET
NOTES
ADMINISTRA nON
. $105,500 has been budgeted for Salaries for three full-time employees and one part-time
employee at current salaries and hourly rate (line item la). Salary adjustments for these
employees have been budgeted as part of Contingency (line item 7).
. $18,960, a 5% increase from 1999, has been budgeted for Office Lease & Storage (line item 2a).
It is projected that Office Lease & Storage expenses for 2000 will cost the District approximately
$25,000. The balance of these expenses will be off-set by funds received from the Freshwater
Foundation in the Fall of 1998 move.
. $11,000 has been budgeted for Professional Services (line item 2b). This includes funds for the
1999 LMCD Audit and for the District Bookkeeper.
. $4,000 has been budgeted for Printing, Publications, & Advertising (line item 3d). This includes
for the re-printing of Summer Rules and other District literature.
. Boat and Water Safety Education (BWSE) expenses (line item 3j) generally offset revenues
received (line item Ie) for this twice a year course for boaters who get BWI's on Lake
Minnetonka.
. The purchase or lease of a new or used copy machine is planned for Furniture & Equipment (line
item 4a).
. $3,5000 has been budgeted for Computer Software & Hardware expenses (line item 4b). This
includes operating systems and word processing software upgrades, and the replacement of one
desktop computer.
. $40,000 has been budgeted for Prosecution Services (line item 5b). This 2~% increase from
1999 can be attributed to the change in BWI legislation in 1998 and the recent challenges of
authority ~f Special Deputies of the Hennepin County Sheriff s Water Patrol. .
. $15,000 has been budgeted for Management Plan Implementation (line item6a). Consistent with
the Management Plan for Lake Minnetonka, a Boat Density Study and a User Attitude Survey are
planned.
. No reserve fund contribution has been budgeted for 2000. With a projected Administrative
reserve fund balance of $118,530 by 12/31/99, the District should attain the agreed upon six-
month reserve for the Administrative Budget by year-end of 1999.
~
EWMlEXOTICS MANAGEMENT
. It is anticipated that the MN DNR will fund the District with a grant of approximately $24,000 to
assist in the management of Eurasian Watermilfoil.
. $5,000 has been budgeted for Zebra Mussel expenses (line item 2). These funds will be spent on
related operating expenses for the spraydown program.
. A reserve fund contribution of $10,000 has been budgeted. With a projected EWM reserve fund
balance of $95,191 by 12/31/99, this would reduce the reserve fund balance for EWM to
$85,191. By the year-end 2000, the District should attain the agreed upon 12 month reserve for
the EWM program.
. A transfer of $10,000 is budgeted to the Equipment Replacement reserve fund for equipment
depreciation.

BUDGET REQUEST FOR 2000
REVISED PRELIMINARY PROPOSAL
COORDINATING COMMITTEE MEETING
JULY 28, 1999
PREPARED BY CHIEF BRYAN LITSEY

SOUTH LAKE MINNETONKA PUBLIC SAFETY DEPARTMENT
OVERVIEW OF PROPOSED 2000 BUDGET
By - Chief Bryan Litsey
I have made a sincere effort to prepare a budget that not only takes into account the
day-to-day operations of our organization, but also takes care of those things that need to
be addressed in order to provide quality service to the community. I have looked at
historical and future trends in trying to accurately reflect the true costs of preparing this
first budget of the new millennium. I feel the outcome has been a realistic assessment of
the needs for our organization. The attached line item narrative provides a summary of
what each category includes along with the anticipated costs. I have also highlighted in
the following paragraphs a few areas about which I would like to comment further.
.
The most noticeable increase in the 2000 budget is in the category of personnel. This. is
due to increases in salaries and benefits for the current employees as well as the phasing
in of one additional full-time officer during the 2000 budget cycle. The salary and
benefit costs attributed to the current employees are very close to the actual amount, since
the officers' union contract has been settled for 2000. This settlement reflects an effort
by the Coordinating Committee to bring salaries and benefits more in line with
comparable law enforcement agencies. I have been supportive of this effort, since it is
important to keep our personnel within the norm of comparable police agencies in terms
of retention and compensation for their performance.
.
The request for an additional officer has been long overdue. Over the past 26 years this
organization has been in existence, the authorized number of full-time officers has only
grown from 12 to 13 (excluding the Shorewood Community Policing Officer). This
singular increase came about after the three-year Youth Resource Officer Grant I wrote
expired in the 1980's. At that time, the decision was made to continue funding this
position on a local level in a slightly modified form. In contrast, the overall number of
residents in the South Lake area has risen, as well as those in adjacent communities. This
translates into an escalating demand for police services, which has seen an increase from
6,576 ICR's (Initial Complaint Reports) in 1983 to 19,672 ICR's in 1998. (See attached
graph for a visual comparison.) This represents almost a 200 percent increase over a
16-year period. This trend has continued into the first quarter of 1999, with 137 more
ICR's being generated than in the same quarter in 1998.
.'
PAGE 2 - 2000 BUDGET OVERVIEW
.
The need for an additional full-time officer can also be shown through a comparison with
other law enforcement agencies. The combined estimated population in the communities
served by our agency is 12,000. This,translates into one officer for every 923 residents.
Conversely, the other two law enforcement agencies in Hennepin County that operate
under ajoint powers agreement have a lower ratio of officers to population. The St.
Bonifacius-Minnetrista Public Safety Department has one officer for every 747 people
and the West Hennepin Public Safety Department (Maple Plain and Independence) has
one officer for every 500 residents. This trend continues when compared to other
neighboring law enforcement agencies. (See attached chart.) This means that there are
fewer officers on our police department to serve the residential population than our
counterparts in the survey. With the addition of another officer this ratio would lessen to
one officer for every 857 residents, still one of the highest among the group surveyed.
Also, the number ofICR's (Initial Complaint Reports) handled by our agency surpasses
the number ofICR's handled by the other police departments surveyed, although this is a
difficult statistic to compare since there is no standardization between agencies.
The requested increase from 13 to 14 full-time officers would really help in terms of
scheduling and coverage, especially during times when requests for service are the
highest. This would also allow for the lieutenant to be more of a true administrative
position, something that has been needed for quite some time due to the ever increasing
internal demands as well as external mandates coming from the state and federal levels.
In addition, having an another officer will allow for more specialized details, such as
traffic enforcement, community policing, etc. I have offset some of the costs in the 2000
budget by phasing in the additional officer with a proposed starting date of April 1, 2000.
This will lessen the financial impact for the first year.
.
During the initial budget discussions about adding another officer, it was suggested that
the needs of the. department would best be served by absorbing the Shorewood
Community Policing Officer as of April!, 2000. This idea has since been advanced and
incorporated into this budget request. Once the. roll over takes place, the City of
Shorewood will supplement their specialized enforcement needs by designating money
toward the costs associated with officers working on an overtime basis.
Another area where I propose a change is for the two part-time clerical personnel. Both
individuals in these positions are long-term employees who have eight and thirteen years
with our organization. In addition to their salaries, the only other benefit they receive is
6 vacation days per year. I would like to extend their benefit package to also include
some floating holidays and sick leave. This will have little-impact on the budget, since
PAGE 3 - 2000 BUDGET OVERVIEW
normally the full-time Administrative Clerk can cover in their absence. I thought the best
approach would be to give part-time clerical employees who work an average of 20
hours or more a week 50 percent of what the Administrative Clerk receives in terms of
vacation, holidays and sick leave. The only difference would be no carryover from year
to year and the holidays would be floating instead of fixed. I feel this is long overdue for
a part-time clerical staff that has been so loyaland hard working over the years.
The budget reflects some needed updates in office equipment. The current copy machine
needs to be upgraded to a digital copy machine that can integrate with our computer
system for faxing, printing, etc. There is a need to address the voluminous amounts of
files that have accumulated through the years. The present system of storing these files
in large boxes on ceiling high shelves has become a safety issue. I have received several
bids on a more efficient and safer filing system. I would also like to implement a voice
mail system and add workstations for the clerical staff. All these advancements should
help increase efficiency and reduce staff time. I anticipate being able to cover the
expense of these items through a $10,000 transfer from the Insurance Fund and a
$10,000 transfer from the Contingency Fund. I have discussed the use of the
Contingency Fund with Department Auditor Stuart Bonniwell, who feels this amount
will not adversely affect the fiscal soundness of our organization.
"
I view officer training as a cheap insurance policy against lawsuits. I would like to
increase this expenditure not only to reduce this risk, but to provide officers with quality
training to better serve the community. The mandated training requirements alone for
police officers in this state are substantial, not taking into account all the other training
needed to effectively do the job. In addition, training for the clerical staffhas been very
limited in the past and this needs to be increased. It is important to have cross training
between employees so as not to be dependent on just one individual.
I, along with other members of our staff, are continually seeking outside sources of
funding to supplement the budget. So far in 1999, more than $40,000 has been obtained
for our police department through various government and private grants and donations.
I anticipate this will increase even more during 1999. The availability of additional
funding from some of these grant programs is tentative in 2000, since the application
process has not yet begun. Nevertheless, I am optimistic new sources of funding will
become available. I will work hard to seek out such funding to help offset the budget for
needed expenditures.
As previously stated, the goal of this budget is to provide quality police service at a

reasonable cost. I feel such has been accomplished in this budget proposal by keeping
the cumulative line items in check, other than the increases associated with salaries and
absorbing the Shorewood Community Policing Officer.

In 1987 the accrued absences had increased to the point there was no contingency fund. In this year, I
(Chief Young) recommended the vacation policy in the union contract be changed to prevent unlimited
accrual of vacation. This was done and there was a three year grace period to use all accumulated
vacation. The three years was completed in 1990 and the funds necessary to keep in this category
stabilized. However, they will continue to increase due to salary increases and additional vacation days
earned as officers reach new benefit levels on the union contract.

10 - SALARIES - FULL-TIME - $780,454
This line item includes all full-time salaries based upon the officers union contract for
2000 and estimates for the non-union positions of chief, lieutenant and administrative
clerk. This category reflects the phasing in of one additional full-time officer to our
authorized staffing level in 1999. The justification for this increased staffing has been
documented in a separate report. The adding of another officer will be accomplished by .
absorbing the officer assigned to the Shorewood Community Policing position as of
April 1 , 2000. There is an offset in the anticipated income section for the Shorewood
Community Policing Officer, which will remain intact until the roll over takes place after
the first quarter of2000.
11- SALARIES - OVERTIME - $57,000
This line item includes estimates for all overtime including holidays, court, school
programs and Shorewood special details. There is an offset in the anticipated income
section for court overtime reimbursement from the cities and school overtime
reimbursement from the school district.
12 - SALARIES - PART-TIME - $57,596
.
This line item includes salaries for part-time clerical personnel as well as seasonal part-
time positions in Excelsior for Park Patrol and Dockmaster. The ever increasing demand
on our clerical staff has made these part-time positions essential, with more and more
responsibilities placed on them each year. The department continues to oversee Park
Patrol and took back the responsibility for overseeing Dockmaster in 1999. These are
both seasonal part-time positions with reimbursement from Excelsior shown under
anticipated income.
13 - PROFESSIONAL SERVICES - $7,500
This line item includes the annual audit, payroll service, medical and psychological
examinations for new hire(s) and legal services needed by the department. The only
PAGE 2 - ANTICIPATED EXPENSES FOR 2000 BUDGET REQUEST
predictable expenses under this category are the annual audit and payroll services, with
the other items subject to fluctuation depending on the need. The medical examination
protocol for new officer hire(s) has recently been updated to coincide with OSHA
requirements. Please note this is a volatile category, especially since unanticipated legal
assistance could send costs soaring.
20 - COMMUNICATIONS - $7,450
.
This line item covers the costs associated with communication equipment through
Hennepin County for the officers, squads and police station. This category has decreased
from years past due to this equipment being amortized. There is an increase from last
year due to the additional squad in the fleet needing to be outfitted with communication
equipment. This category will increase dramatically when the new 800 MHz
communication system is implemented in Hennepin County within the next few years.
This cost has already been anticipated and a special fund was created to help ease the
fmancial impact when this actually takes place.
21- PRINTING AND PUBLISHING - $4,500
This line item covers the expenses associated with stationary, report forms, warnings, and
citations as well as professional and legal publications. There is a continual need to
update and create new forms due to various mandates and changes in the laws.
.
22 - UTILITIES - $17,730
This line item includes water and sewer, office and cellular phones, gas, electricity and
alarm service. Anticipated increases have been factored into this category along with an
additional office phone line for Internet/modem transmissions. These are currently being
done over the fax line, which causes disruptions when multiple use becomes necessary.
23 - TRAVEL, CONFERENCES AND SCHOOLS - $10,000
The line item covers the escalating costs associated with mandated and beneficial
training courses and conferences for department personnel. It is important to provide
quality training to enhance the skill level and professionalism of employees as well as
reduce the risk of libelist action against the department. Although the cost of training is
significant, this amount is minimal in comparison to a civil suit.
PAGE 3 - ANTICIPATED EXPENSES FOR 2000 BUDGET REQUEST
24 - MAINTENANCE - $18,000
This line item covers maintenance of department equipment. The largest expense in this
category is vehicle repairs and upkeep. The other items included in this category are
upkeep and maintenance agreements for office equipment along with the required
calibration of speed measuring devices, etc.
27 - CARE OF PERSONS - $100
This line items covers the incidental expenses of caring for prisoners in police custody.
This is rarely used, since most prisoners are usually booked in jail or released relatively
~~. .
28 - CLEANING & WASTE REMOVAL - $6,600
This line item includes janitorial services and waste removal. The janitorial expense has
remained the same for three years and the provider has asked for a $25 per month
increase in 2000, which would then be the guaranteed rate for an additional three years. .
The solid waste provider recommends factoring in at least an eight percent increase for
2000.
30 - OFFICE SUPPLIES - $3,750
This line item includes the expenses associated with providing supplies for the normal .
office functions of the department. The cost of postage is included, which should stay
stable in 2000.
33 - MOTOR FUELS - $17,000
This line item includes all fuels and lubricants for police department vehicles. The bulk
of this category is for gasoline, which is subject to swings in price due to instability in the
world market. It would seem, however, there is no need to increase this expense based
on historical costs in this category.
37 - UNIFORMS - $8,500
This line item includes uniform and duty gear for department personnel. The costs of
these items continues to rise each year and tends to go over budget. The requested
PAGE 4 - ANTICIPATED EXPENSES FOR 2000 BUDGET REQUEST
increase in this budget is due to the cost of outfitting a new officer along with providing
uniforms for the office staff. This change for the clerical staffwill give a more
professional appearance and clearly identify their police affiliation. This category now
more accurately reflects the true costs. .
39 - GENERAL SUPPLIES - $13,000
.
This comprehensive category covers a variety of general expenses such as ammunition,
tires, first aid supplies, batteries, video/cassette tapes, film, tools, vehicle supplies and
other miscellaneous items required for department operations. There is also an additional
expense in 2000 for replacement pads and batteries for the Automatic External
Defibrillators (AED's). Due to state mandates and liability issues associated with
firearms, the need for additional training in this area coincides with the need ,for more
ammunition. These addendums translate into increased costs.
40 - REN'r - $45,500
This line item includes rent of the police station along with the pagers, copy machine,
postage meter and state terminal connection. The increase in this category is due to the
upgrade of our copy machine to a digital model, which will have faxing capabilities and
the ability to integrate with our computer system as a printer. We will continue to lease
the copier through IKON Office Solutions. There is also an increase in the cost of our
postage meter, but this will not show in its entirety until 2001 due to a discount up front
in the lease agreement.
.
41 - INSURANCE - $43,000
This line item has stayed consistent over the past few years and covers insurance costs
associated with workers' compensation, general liability, vehicles and professional
liability. There is no increase in this category and the amount will be transferred into the
Insurance Fund.
43 - SUBSCRIPTIONS & MEMBERSHIPS - $2,000
This line item includes subscriptions to journals along with organizational memberships.
There is an increase in this category due to the new contractual requirement that the
department pay for Peace Officer Licenses, which is done on a three-year cycle
depending on the last naine of the officer. There are also more association and
PAGE 5 - ANTICIPATED EXPENSES FOR 2000 BUDGET REQUEST
membership costs than in the past.
45 - PENSIONS & BENEFITS - $154,000
This line includes medical insurance through LOGIS Health Care Group, retirement
through Public Employee Retirement Fund (PERA) and Social Security. In talking to a
representative with LOGIS Health Care Group, the projected 2000 increase in medical
insurance will be 10 to 12 percent. The PERA Police & Fire Fund had a rate reduction
for both the employee and employer as a result of the 1999 Minnesota Legislature. This
went into effect as of July 1, 1999 and lowered the employee rate from 7.6% to 6.2% and
lowered the employer rate from 11.4% to 9.3%. This has limited impact on the budget,
since our police department receives State Aid to offset a portion of our contribution to .
the PERA Police & Fire Fund. The expected State Aid reimbursement is shown as a
revenue item under anticipated income.
48 - SPECIAL PROJECTS - $9,650
This line item includes our contribution to the Southwest Metro Drug Task Force, which
receives funds from eight member law enforcement agencies (additional expected) along
with federal grant money administered through the state. It also includes our subscriber
fee for CornerHouse, which is a sexual abuse evaluation center for child victims. There
is no increase forthcoming from the Drug Task Force and only an estimated three percent
increase from CornerHouse. Both of these special projects are well worth the expense
and could not be duplicated on our own with the same level of service.
51- BUILDING EXPENSES - $3,000
.
This line item covers the costs associated with needed repairs to the police station, which
are prone to increases as the building ages. There is an increase in this category.
52 - FURNITURE & EQUIPMENT REP Am - $5,000
This line item covers the repair and replacement of inoperable or obsolete equipment,
with computers being a significant ongoing expenditure due to heavy use and
technological advancements.
.
.
PAGE 6 - ANTICIPATED EXPENSES FOR 2000 BUDGET REQUEST
53 - VEHICLES - $48,700
This line item includes the cost of two Ford Crown Victoria police vehicles along with
set up fees. This is part of our ongoing replacement schedule, which has been modified
due to authorization being given in 1999 to retain an additional marked squad in our fleet.
Consequently the replacement schedule for squads has been extended, thus reducing this
expense category.
54 - FURNITURE AND EQUIPMENT FUND - $0
This line item supplements the Furniture and Equipment Fund, which is utilized for the
purchase and replacement of equipment. This fund will be depleted in 1999 in order to
cover the costs associated with installing new Y2K compliant record keeping software
for our internal computer system. This, in turn, required updating our network and
purchasing some computer hardware. This postponed being able to address several other
needed purchases to deal with the voluminous amounts of accumulated files, voice
messaging and workstations for the clerical staff. The plan is to utilize .$10,000 from the
Contingency Fund along with a $10,000 transfer from the Insurance Fund to address
these needs. Department Auditor Stuart Bonniwell feels the Contingency Fund is healthy
enough to absorb this transfer.
SOUTH LAKE MINNETONKA PUBLIC SAFETY DEPARTMENT
LINE ITEM NARRATIVE FOR 2000 BUDGET REQUEST
STATE PEACE OFFICER AID - $80,000
This reimbursement through the Minnesota Department of Revenue lags one year behind
and is designated to offset the employer's contribution to the Public Employment
Retirement Association (PERA) Police & Fire Fund. There is no defmitive answer at
this point as to how the PERA rate reductions for both the employer will affect the
amount of this reimbursement. The suggestion by the Department of Revenue was to go .
by the amount last received, which was $83,777. I would like to take a more
conservative approach, however, and have calculated this category slightly less.
SHOREWOOD COMMUNITY POLICING OFFICER - $15,981
This is direct reimbursement from the City of Shorewood for costs associated with this
position for the first quarter of 2000.
SHOREWOOD SPECIAL DETAILS - $15,000
This is a direct reimbursement from the City of Shorewood for costs associated with
having officers work special details on an overtime basis.
.
PARK PATROL & DOCKMASTER - $19,000
The above figure represents the anticipated amount budgeted by the City of Excelsior for
these seasonal positions administered through our police department. The actual amount
used will vary, but there is no adverse impact on our budget since all the costs are
covered by the City of Excelsior. They also pay the standard five percent administrative
fee.
COURT OVERTIME - $7,800
Each of the four cities served by our police department pays the actual overtime costs of
an officer having to make a court appearance for an incident that occurred in their
respective city. This varies from year to year and thus the above figure is only an
~ .
PAGE 2 - ANTICIPATED INCOME FOR 2000 BUDGET REQUEST
estimate based upon the historical high point.
TRAINING REIMBURSEMENT - $4,400
The State of Minnesota provides partial reimbursement for the continuing education of
police officers. Based upon the 1999 reimbursement estimate, the amount above reflects
what our police department should receive for 14 full-time officers. This could change,
however, depending on legislative action in the year 2000.
EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS - $4,000
. There is a state and local aid program through the federal government that provides
funding for emergency preparedness activities. The amount above reflects the
anticipated portion our police department will receive in 2000, which has remained
constant the past several years.
INTEREST - $11,500
The above figure is a conservative estimate based upon the interest earned in 1997 and
1998, which was $11,526 and $11,959 respectively.
MINNETONKA SCHOOL DISTRICT - $6,800
.
The Minnetonka School District provides these funds for police liaison and educational
services in the schools.
SALES OF VEIDCLE - $10,000
This is the anticipated income from the sale of two squads in 2000.
. .
COPIES OF DOCUMENTS, PHOTOS & TAPES - $2,000
This is the anticipated revenue from public data requests.
FINGERPRINT REQUESTS - $200
This is the anticipated revenue expected from citizens wanting their fingerprints taken for
employment purposes, etc.

RE:
Pahl, Steve - Appeal of Application Submission Requirements
FILE NO.:
Property (24860 Smithtown Road)
Mr. Steve Pahl is interested in subdividing his property at 24860 Smithtown Road (see
Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached). His lot is quite deep, but too narrow to get two
lots with frontage on Smithtown Road. Consequently, he would like to create a "flag lot"
as illustrated in his letter, dated 14 July 1999 (see Exhibit B).
.
Mr. Pahl has been advised on more than one occasion that his request will necessitate a
variance to the City's zoning and subdivision regulations. He was informed that his
request is contrary to long standing City policy regarding back lot development and that
the request does not appear to satisfy the criteria for granting a variance in that the
"hardship" he suggests is substantially economic in nature. Language in the
Comprehensive Plan specifically discourages such piecemeal development of property.
Nevertheless, he has every right to make an application.
The problem at present is that Mr. Pahl is unwilling to provide the basic information (Le.
a survey of the property, mailing list of surrounding property owners, etc.) necessary to
process a subdivision and variance application. In essence, he is asking the City Council
to tell him whether his request will be approved without investing in the application
process.
A survey of the property is an absolute minimum requirement. It is essential to
evaluating any type of building request, let alone a request for subdividing land. It is
impossible to render a proper decision without knowing such things as where the house

Memorandum
Re: Pahl Appeal
5 August 1999
and other buildings are located on the site, the existence of any easements on the
property, the location of nearby homes or characteristics of the site. The City should not
apologize for requiring property surveys. Some of the most serious problems faced by
land owners come from not knowing exactly what they have or where things are located
on the property. The survey is not a waste of money. If Mr. Pahl intends to sell the
property, it lets potential buyers know exactly what they are getting. It also simplifies
and expedites any future improvements that may be made to the property.
It is strongly recommended that the Council not render an opinion on Mr. Pahl' s request
without it having gone through the application process, including the required public
hearing. The application should include the basic information required by the City's
development regulations.
If you have any questions relative to this matter, please call me prior to the meeting on
Monday night.

Shorewood, MN
July 14, 1999
To Whom It May Concern:
.
We intend to request a variance for a subdivision and private drive, from the
city of Shorewood. We have been told our chances of having the variance
granted are very slim, if not impossible. Therefore, we are asking your
opinion as to whether or not we should go to the expense of having the
property surveyed, the land a~sessed, filing fees and other costs paid when
the variance will likely be denied in the end. (Our out of pocket expenses
would be approximately $3,000.00)
We are aware that the city is opposed to so-called "flag lots", butour
situation is different in that we would be asking for oflJy one lot. The
property would be set up to be compatible with future sub-dividing.
We appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to hearing from
you.

TO: Mayor and City Council
James C. Hurm, City Administrator
Larry Brown, Director of Public Works IA?-
FROM:
DATE:
August 4, 1999
RE: A Motion to Adopt a Resolution for Establishing a School Speed Zone on Smithtown
Road
As of late, the City has received several requests for designation of a school speed zone and a designated
pedestrian crossing for Smithtown Road at the Minnewashta Elementary School. The following is a
review of the probable location for a pedestrian crossing and speed zone.
Pedestrian Crossing
.
After review of the site, it is recommended that a pedestrian crossing on Smithtown Road be located at
the intersection of Strawberry Lane. Other locations for crossing Smithtown Road near Minnewashta
Elementary School were considered, However, crossing at the intersection of Strawberry Lane is a more
expected condition by both motorists, and pedestrians.
The signing and striping requirements for such crossings are shown in Attachment 1, The Minnesota
Department of Transportation has adopted the use of fluorescent green/yellow for pedestrian crossings.
these high intensity colored signs tend to be real "eye grabbers!" It is recommended that these type of
signs be used for this location. Existing crossing signs should also be replaced with the high visibility
signs. Lastly, the crossing should be marked with what is known as a "zebra crosswalk" (white block
pattern) across Smithtown Road at Strawberry Lane,
Speed Zone
Unlike posted speed limits, local authorities may establish school speed zones within a school zone of
public or nonpublic schools on the basis of an engineering and traffic investigation. School speed zones
shall only be in effect when children are present, going to or leaving the school. The school speed zone
cannot lower the posted speed more than 20 miles per hour, and shall not be established below 15 miles
per hour.

Mayor and City Council
Smithtown Road - School Speed Zone
August 4, 1999
Page 2 of2
The posted speed on Smithtown Road is 30 miles per hour in the area ofMinnewahsta School.
Technically, the speed limit can be posted at 15 miles per hour under these conditions. While minimizing
the speed to the lowest possible rate is very attractive within the school zone, adherence to the speed
zone may be more effective at 20 miles per hour than at 15. Drivers who feel that a posted limit is too
low tend to ignore the posting altogether, and maintain the normal speed. While enforcement is the key
resolution to this issue, it is not practical to have an officer at this site all the time. Theref<?re, staff is
recommending that the site be posted at 20 miles per hour, with the advance crossing/crossing signs as

Re:
Communication Issues - Agenda Item #12B
Attached please find a memorandum from Teri Naab concerning improvements to the
web site and an idea regarding placing the agenda item on the video tape at Council
meetings.
These are just two of the items that have been or could be raised in our attempts to
improve using communication technology. One of the ideas that has come from the City
Council is to consider a small communications committee. Staff whole-heartedly
supports that idea. Members of the City Council who have a particular interest or
knowledge in the communications area could meet with staff (specifically Teri Naab) on
an on-going basis to discuss communications technology and issues. Further they could
act as liaison with the rest of the Council and the public when suggestions on
communications technology are received. The committee could review each idea and
make recommendations to the Council relating to unbudgeted expenditures.
Council could establish such a committee on an ad-hoc basis by motion. The first items
for committee consideration could be those items in the attached memorandum.

Re: Municipal Code on Web Site in HTML Format
Addition of Agenda Item on Cable Video
.
Web Site:
At the July 12 Council meeting, Council member Zerby suggested the Municipal Code be
put on the web site in a HTML format to accommodate those unable to download the
code in the current format with an Adobe reader. Staff did some experimentation with
existing software, and estimates to convert the entire code using such would take
approximately 80 hours. This probably would take approximately 2 to 3 months utilizing
current personnel resources. In addition to converting the electronic copy into HTML
coding, staff would be responsible for ensuring format was correct and adding links. We
are not sure at this time if footnotes would transfer well, or how the final product would
look using different browsers.
Both formats would be on the web site and visitors could chose which they wanted.
Anyone using a regular PC would have the ability to download the code in the current
format. The HTML format, while available to all, would particularly benefit those using
Web TV or Palm Pilots.
.
The Municipal Code is approximately 1,300 pages and would add a significant amount of
volume to the site, which in turn could end up costing the City more for storage. On
average, we receive approximately 10 to 15 hits on the Municipal Code pages per week in
the current format.
Since this project would require the use of staff resources and could potentially cost the
City addition money in terms of web storage, Council, as a whole, should direct staff on
this issue.
,.,..
.
.
Addition of A2enda Item on Video Tapes:
Scott Zerby also asked staff to research the possibility of adding a text line on the video
tape used for cable cast that would allow the viewer to see what item the Council was
discussing.
We have received two quotes on text editors that would allow staff to pre-program
agenda items. The video person would just have to push a button to display the next
item. The quotes are as follows:
TitleMaker 3000
ScreenWriter
$790.00
$199.00
The TitleMaker 3000 is a very high-tech piece of equipment offering multiple fonts and
options for display. The ScreenWriter is very basic and would work just fine for our
needs. However, our vendor did indicate that the quality of the lettering may not be as
good. He indicated with cheaper models of text editors, there may be some glare created
around the letters, however, he wasn't sure if this model would produce effect.
Once again, since this requires expenditures of funds and the use of additional staff
resources, Council should direct staff on their preference with regard to this issue.
