Mayor, City of Shore wood
Ms. Traylor currently operates a chiropractic office in her home under a Limited
Conditional Use Permit. Under your ordinances, this Permit was apparently
awarded without notification of neighbors or hearings.
She now seeks a Special Conditional Use Permit in order to add a non-resident
employee to her office. Two hearings before yourPlanning Commission have served
little purpose beyond exposing the fact that her property is not suitable for
her operations: in order to get the Special permit, she will also need a
variance to provide the minimal parking required for her proposed employee
and clients. And there is no good reason to give a variance.
This is a purely residential neighborhood, served by an inadequate street only
14 feet in width. A large proportion of the residents have small children. There
is no justification for a commercial operation with resultant additional traffic,
however limited, in this neighborhood. This is one reason a petition signed
by many of the neighbors was presented to the Planning Commission.
A Conditional Use Permit is intended to allow by exception activities not
appropriate in a zoned area. Before you consider this one, you shouId ask
yourself how you'd respond to a request to build a staffed office in this
residential area, and have it designed as this building now exists, with
parking and access that doesn't meet minimal city standards.
It is unfortunate that some properties are not suitable by design or location
for uses an owner might want, but it is not the city's obligation to correct
the deficiencies. In this case, Ms. Traylor's use of her home as a residence
would not be harmed by her inability to treat clients there, so there is no
reason to grant a variance, and the Special permit should be denied.

With regrets, 1 must resign my commission to the Shorewood Planning Commission
effective Tuesday December 31, 1997. My business responsibilities involving ever
increasing intemational travel, make it impossible to attend commission meets on any
regular basis. I believe the citizens of Shorewood would be better served by someone that
is able to conunit the necessary time to this important commission. I have enjoyed my time
on the planning commission, and look forward to serving Shorewood in a reduced capacity
through the Cable Commission, and any ad hoc special projectS at the pleasure of the
Council.

Executive Summary - City Council Meeting of December 15, 1997
Page 2
Agenda Item #6: Park Commission Chair Bill Colopoulos has indicated he will be present to
review with the Council the discussions held at the joint meeting of December 9.
Agenda Item #7: Please review the minutes of the special Planning Commission meeting of
December 9. Laura Turgeon will be present to present Planning Commission
recommendations to the Council concerning a broader moratorium.
Agenda Item #7 A: James Wyman has requested approval of a preliminary plat which would divide
his property at 24020 Yellowstone Trail into eight single-family residential lots. The property
contains nearly 17 acres, of which just over three is wetlands. The Planning Director has
advised that the plat is consistent with City Codes, and recommends approval subject to a
number of conditions. The Planning Commission agreed unanimously, adding conditions to
the Planning Director's recommendations. Approval of the draft resolution contained herein
requires a simple majority vote of the Council.
Agenda Item #7B: Sondra Traylor has requested approval of a conditional use permit which would .
allow her to bring in an outside employee to help her with her existing home occupation
(chiropractor's office). Based upon input from area residents at the public hearing the Planning
Commission expressed concerns with access to the site (Summit A venue is extremely narrow)
and Dr.Trayor's ability to comply with parking requirements. Staff presented an alternative
site plan which would bring the parking into compliance with the Code. Nevertheless, the
Commission split its vote 3-3. Approval of the conditional use permit would require a four-
fifths vote by the Council. Staff should be directed to prepare a findings of fact for the next
meeting.
Agenda Item #7C: This item has not been completed in time for this meeting and will be placed on
the agenda for the first meeting in January.
Agenda Item 8: The Finance Director and Liquor Store Manager will give a brief presentation
concerning the current status of the Shorewood liquor operation. Following that there will be
an opportunity for public and Council comments or questions. The Council then will be asked
to consider #8A authorizing the Liquor Committee to negotiate and undertake a reduction in
space for the liquor store at the Waterford Shopping Center; and #8B authorize by motion a one .
year extension of the agreement with the City of T onka Bay regarding the City of Shorewood
managing the Tonka Bay liquor store. The City of Tonka Bay has already approved this one
year extension of the current three year agreement.
Agenda Item 9: The proposed rules and regulations concerning liquor, wine and beer at the
Southshore Center is included in the packet. The City Attorney has had an opportunity to
review them and he will be able to make comments at the Council meeting.
Agenda Item #10: The City Attorney has brought to our attention that State law now requires us to
change our ordinance to remove references to the term "non-intoxicating" in our liquor
ordinances.
Agenda Item #11: Normally appointments to City Commissions are made at the first meeting in
January. However, because several Council members will be absent during that meeting, this
resolution makes appointments to the Planning Commission to take affect January 1, 1998.
Agenda Item #12: For the same reason as Agenda #11, this resolution makes appointments to the
Park Commission effective January 1, 1998.

2. DISCUSSION ON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN - SENIOR HOUSING
Mayor Dahlberg felt the goal or the intention of any senior housing which is higher density than
that reflected on the zoning map should be a product of planning and re-working of the zoning map
in a fashion which dedicates a particular area for senior housing after public hearings and research
of the neighborhoods outlining their feelings.
Mayor Dahlberg stated his policy would be to encourage the preservation of single level living
which currently exists in Shorewood. He would not want any new development to eliminate the
affordable housing and single level housing which the city now has. Any development which is
higher density, whether it is senior housing or not, should be done on a dedicated basis after
planning.
Councilmember Stover felt the two questions which need to be decided are whether senior housing
is a desirable goal and whether it needs to be affordable. Should the Council decide these are goals
of the City, if a specific piece of property is zoned to a higher density than currently exists, that
would increase the value of the land. When the value of the land is increased, the cost of the
housing is also increased.
Mayor Dahlberg stated he is not in favor of senior housing as a goal if that means special protection
for that particular class with regard to the availability of that housing. He stated it would be a goal
to implement single level housing in areas to increase the availability of that type of housing as well
as preserving what already exists. Mayor Dahlberg stated he is in favor of having single level
housing available in areas for seniors, but was opposed to actually designating seniors as a
protected class by limiting the housing simply to seniors.
Councilmember Stover felt the term "affordable" needs to be defined. She noted there is single
level housing in the area, however, it is not affordable.
Mayor Dahlberg did not feel the survey which had been done relative to senior housing had been
competent. Counci1member Stover stated she would not be opposed to a new survey based upon
Mayor Dahlberg's concerns. Councilmember O'Neill noted his agreement with Mayor Dahlberg.
He felt Shorewood has already developed as a specific type of community and a high density
development would not be consistent with the character of the community.

Mayor Dahlberg felt it can be economically inefficient to force a mixed housing community where
an infrastructure would have to be created for areas which are higher density. Councilmember
Stover stated the infrastructure is actually more expensive with low density than with high density.
Councilmember Stover noted there were 45 Shore wood residents who were willing to buy the
senior housing units which were proposed by the Eagle Crest developer. The developer would not
accept the letters of intent until such time as the development was approved by the City. She noted
there is interest in senior housing by Shorewood residents. Councilmember O'Neill did not feel
the proposed housing to have been affordable.
Mayor Dahlberg stated he cannot support a high density approach to the senior housing market.
He did not feel the term "affordable" could be determined. Councilmember Garfunkel stated what
is affordable in Shorewood is different than what would be considered affordable in another city.
Planning Director Nielsen explained the study identified three elements of senior housing which
included step down housing, multiple family and care facility. The Senior Housing Task Force,
the Planning Commission and the Council at that time were in favor of step down housing.
Councilmember Garfunkel felt the ordinance needs to be reviewed and amended to reflect density
up to a specific number given the interpretations which may arise in which a developer believes
they have the right to expect the maximum number of units per acre as described in the ordinance.
Mayor Dahlberg suggested eliminating senior housing from the ordinance until such time as the
Council has been able to fully address the issue. Planning Director Nielsen explained this would
suggest a moratorium on senior housing until the Council has arrived at a decision.
.
Mayor Dahlberg felt the ordinance should be clear and concise. Councilmember Garfunkel felt
creating an ordinance which is clear and concise would actually allow more latitude.
Mayor Dahlberg suggested the Council pass, by simple majority, a moratorium on senior housing
until such time as this issue can be worked out. Councilmember Garfunkel noted his agreement.
Councilmember O'Neill suggested a new survey be performed relative to this matter.
Councilmember O'Neill stated he would like to ascertain whether senior housing is a goal of the .
majority of the residents of Shorewood.
Councilmember Stover stated if the word "affordable" is not utilized, lower or higher density is not
necessarily implied. Senior housing could be permitted at the current density if the term
"affordable" is not utilized. Councilmember Garfunkel felt the Council must determine whether or
not it is a goal to promote affordable housing in Shorewood. Mayor Dahlberg stated this would
not be his goal. Administrator Hurm felt this must be determined prior to performing a survey on
this issue.
Councilmember Stover noted the Council has worked for senior housing for a number of years. In
that time, two developers have submitted proposals which were rejected by the neighborhood. She
did not feel another developer would come in with a proposal for senior housing based on this
history, therefore, senior housing should simply be eliminated from the ordinance.
Councilmember Stover stated she would not be in favor of removing senior housing from the
ordinance because she is convinced it is an admirable goal. She would not, however, object to a
moratorium.
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MINUTES
NOVEMBER 19, 1997 . PAGE 3
Councilmember O'Neill suggested placing a moratorium on senior housing and referring the matter
to the Planning Commission for public hearings and recommendation back to the Council.
Mayor Dahlberg noted the Council will need to provide the Planning Commission with direction
relative to this matter. Nielsen felt they should be informed the density issue is paramount.
Councilmember Garfunkel did not feel density to be the entire issue. He stated he has a
philosophical issue with protecting a particular class of citizens.
Mayor Dahlberg did not feel it to be a function of government to protect a class of relatively
affluent seniors who are looking for a very specific solution in Shorewood. Councilmember
Garfunkel noted his agreement.
Mayor Dahlberg felt if there is going to be a higher density than allowed for on the current zoning
maps, it will have to be worked out on a dedicated zoning basis.
Nielsen inquired whether the Council is willing to consider higher density for senior housing if the
community is willing to accept this. Mayor Dahlberg felt the Planning Commission should be
informed the major issue is density as well as the question of whether or not it is appropriate for
. government to be engaged in housing projects which are dedicated to a specific class of people.
Mayor Dahlberg felt it to be the position of a number of the councilmembers that they are adopting
a market driven housing policy. This housing policy is based on the current zoning map and the
market will determine what will happen.
Councilmember O'Neill explained his position that the majority of the residents do not want a
higher density than currently exists. He did not feel the residents would be in favor of subsidies
for senior housing.
.
Mayor Dahlberg felt any inconsistencies between the Land Use Plan and the Zoning Map should be
resolved, opting for the lower density in each instance. Nielsen explained this will be discussed in
an upcoming work session.
It was felt an appropriate length of time for the moratorium would be approximately one year.
Nielsen noted there are extensions which may be made to that one year period.
Nielsen will communicate the concerns of the Council to the Planning Commission to assist in their
review of this matter.
Councilmember Stover stated that as a minority opinion, she would like to see what can be done to
make housing affordable, even though the term "affordable" has not been defmed.

Commission Meeting
Commissioner Dallman reported on the matters discussed and actions taken at the November 11,
1997, meeting of the Park Commission (as detailed in the minutes of that meeting).
With respect to the issue of a skate park, Mayor Dahlberg felt perhaps it would be beneficial to
privatize this type of facility or the actual management of it. He expressed his opinion there is
probably sufficient support for such a facility. Councilmember O'Neill suggested directing the
Park Commission to further investigate this matter as well as the possibility of creating this type of
park on a regional level.
It was noted the question of liability would need to be investigated.

.
Mayor Dahlberg inquired how many bays the new facility will contain. Mr. Jones stated it would
be similar to the existing facility containing approximately 350 bays. Mayor Dahlberg asked how
this will impact traffic to the facility. Mr. Jones noted on average, there would be 15 to 20 trips
per weekday with slightly increased traffic on the weekends.
Councilmember Stover noted there was neighborhood support for the first facility which was
constructed. She commented the neighbors were in favor of the facility because there were no
problems with noise or lights and the building itself sheltered the neighborhood from the highway.
Councilmember O'Neill noted the only concern which was raised by the surrounding neighbors at
the Planning Commission level was relative to the color of the building.
Stover moved, O'Neill seconded directing staff to prepare draft zoning code

CONSIDERA TION OF A REQUEST TO WAIVE DELINQUENT UTILITY
CHARGES
Mr. John Conlin, 4530 Enchanted Drive, addressed the Council requesting the utility charges
which have accumulated against his property, prior to his purchase of it, be waived. Mr. Conlin
explained he has made numerous attempts to collect the charges from the previous owner to no
avail.
Mr. Conlin noted since Burnett Realty represented both the buyer and the seller of the property,
there may be payment forthcoming from the realty company.
Councilmember O'Neill suggested Mr. Conlin continue to pursue this matter, possibly through a
conciliation court action.
Councilmember Stover inquired whether these charges have already been certified. Engineer
Brown noted they have not. Attorney Beatty noted if the Council were not to certify the tax by
November 30th, the charges could still be certified next year to be applied to the 1999 taxes for the
property .

issue until such time as the Council has completed their review and update of the Comprehensive
Plan.
Councilmember Stover stated the City's participation with the Metropolitan Council has resulted in .
somewhat reduced sewer charges as well as the Metropolitan Council's assistance on the issue of
transportation.

2. DISCUSSION ON COMPREHENSIVE PLAN LAND USE SECTION
Nielsen explained it is important the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Section and the Zoning
Districts be consistent given the current statutory requirements. Mayor Dahlberg was of the
opinion the zoning map should be utilized since it is the stable, recognized policy by which people
have been guided, although he would be open to reviewing the possibility of lower density in the
areas suggested by the Comprehensive Plan.
CounciImember Stover felt if a property has been developed since the zoning districts were
changed, then the zoning should be changed to reflect the appropriate zone so that the current
homeowners are not in nonconformity.
Nielsen noted there to be 15 areas throughout the city in which the land use is contrary to the actual
zoning district. Each area was reviewed by Nielsen and input received from Council as follows:
The consensus of the Council was to change the Land Use Plan to reflect a lower
density. The zoning map would then remain as it currently exists.
The consensus of the Council was to change the Land Use Plan to reflect RID
zoning and the existing development pattern.
The consensus of the Council was to change the Land Use Plan from 0 to 1 units
per acre to allow for 1 to 2 units per acre.
CounciImember O'Neill questioned whether a public hearing will be required when making
changes to the Land Use Plan. Nielsen explained a citywide public notice will be utilized.
CounciImember O'Neill expressed concern there be some sort of hearing at which time the
neighbors would have an opportunity to express their concerns relative to how a piece of property
is zoned and/or developed.

CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MINUTES
NOVEMBER 17, 1997 . PAGE 2
Councilmember Stover felt an individual homeowner's rights to be more important than the
neighborhood's opinion of how an individual homeowner should develop their own property.
With respect to Area No.3, Councilmember Stover suggested the property owner be asked which
zoning he prefers, the RIA or RIC. The consensus of the Council was to leave the current zoning
in place.
Nielsen pointed out public hearings were conducted relative to the 1995 Comprehensive Plan
which is currently in effect. There is however, a need to review the current Land Use Plan to bring
it into conformity with the existing zoning. Changes in the Land Use Plan will not require any
additional public hearings, however, revisions which are made to the Comprehensive Plan will
require public hearings. Mayor Dahlberg believed the goal of the Council to be to stabilize the
zoning which currently exists.
Area 4:
The consensus of the Council was to keep the current zoning and change the Land
Use Plan to reflect 0 to 1 units per acre.
Area 5:
The consensus of the Council was to keep the existing zoning in place.
Mayor Dahlberg suggested the zoning remain as it currently exists given its longstanding history. .
Nielsen noted if the ownership of the property were to change, the current zoning provides for a
larger commercial operation. Mayor Dahlberg expressed concern a change in zoning at this time
could be construed as a taking of the property. Nielsen commented given the limited size and
nonconformity of the property, there would not be many options for changing the existing
operation. Nielsen felt given the limitations of this property a taking would be somewhat minimal.
Councilmember O'Neill and Mayor Dahlberg were in favor of leaving the existing zoning in place.
Area 6:
The consensus of the Council was to leave the RIA zoning in place.
Nielsen noted this to be a moot point since the property has been developed more consistent with
RIA than RI C. He suggested leaving the RIA zoning in place as opposed to changing the zoning
to RI C.
Area 7:
The consensus of the Council was to keep the existing RI C zoning in place.
Nielsen pointed out a change to R2A zoning would result in an increased density. Mayor
Dahlberg was opposed to changing the zoning to R2A. Councilmembers Garfunkel and O'Neill
noted their agreement.
.
Councilmember Stover asked if RIC zoning would preclude a development such as an earlier
proposal which had been made for senior housing type condominiums. Nielsen explained that
zoning would not allow a 39-unit condominium project. Mayor Dahlberg suggested as the senior
housing issue proceeds over the next several years that public hearings be held to investigate the
possibility of rezoning this area to a dedicated senior housing area which would be relatively low
density. Councilmember Stover was in favor of changing the zoning, however the consensus of
the Council was to keep the existing zoning.
Area 8:
Nielsen did not recommend applying commercial zoning at this time and explained
the intent would be to bring the uses of the property into confol1IlaI1ce with the
Lakeshore Recreational zoning district. It was the consensus of the Council to keep
the existing RIA zoning in place.
,

Area 9:
It was the consensus of the Council to change the Land Use Plan to reflect the
existing commercial uses.
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION l\HNUTES
NOVEMBER 17, 1997 - PAGE 3
Nielsen recommended changing the Land Use Plan to reflect low to medium density
residential, 1 to 2 units per acre. Councilmember Garfunkel suggested specifying
one unit per acre since there is a potential for two units to be built on one acre.
Mayor Dahlberg noted his agreement. It was the consensus of the Council to
change the Land Use Plan to reflect 0 to 1 units per acre.
It was the consensus of the Council to change the Land Use Plan to public and the
zoning district to RIA.
Mayor Dahlberg suggested keeping the RIA zoning, however, he may be willing at
some point to look at possible incentives to the owner to do something different
with this area. Councilmember Garfunkel was in agreement. This will result in a
change in the Land Use Plan lowering the density to 0 to 1 units per acre. Mayor
Dahlberg stressed the Land Use Plan must be as clear as possible.
The consensus of the Council was to change the Land Use Plan to low density
residential, 0 to 1 units per acre.
It was suggested the work session currently scheduled for Monday, December 1, 1997, at 7:30

were in favor of changing the Land Use Plan rather than the current zoning. It was
the consensus of the Council to change the Land Use Plan to reflect the existing
zoning.
The consensus of the Council was to change the Land Use Plan to medium density

LU-!
Item No.3 - Councilmember O'Neill suggested removal of the last sentence which refers to the
development of smaller lot sizes. Mayor Dahlberg suggested Item No.3 be eliminated entirely
since it become irrelevant.
Item No.4 - Mayor Dahlberg felt the single goal be to keep the affordable housing which exists
and encourage builders to construct smaller homes on the larger lots. He did not feel it should be a
specific goal of the City to maintain a variety of housing. Any housing which complies with the
zoning map would be acceptable.
Nielsen will rewrite Item Nos. 3 and 4 to reflect the Council's goal of preserving the current
housing which exists and adherence to the existing zoning map.

Paragraph 6 - The consensus of the Council was to.leave the last sentence as it currently reads.
Mayor Dahlberg suggesting deleting the sentence relative to "the lack of affordable housing options
presents an area of concern." He stated he would like to revisit this issue at some point in the
future.
Mayor Dahlberg felt the entire section relative to senior housing should be deleted and the Council
revisit this issue at some point in the future and rewrite this section of the Plan. Nielsen pointed
out the purpose of the moratorium which has been proposed is to provide an opportunity for the
Council to study the issue. Mayor Dahlberg expressed concern relative to protecting a specific
class of citizens by labeling housing as being specific to seniors.
LU-7
Item No.2 - Councilmember O'Neill asked for an explanation of this provision. Nielsen stated
this provision relates to physical barriers which separate neighborhoods, reducing the impact of
those such as a trail system which may connect various neighborhoods. Mayor Dahlberg felt this
item should be restated since the current language is extremely abstract.
LU-9
.
Item No.9 - Mayor Dahlberg felt this could be stricken since the Council will rely on the existing
zoning map.
Item No. 13 - Councilmember O'Neill stated he is not in favor of cluster homes. The consensus
of the Council was to delete the reference to cluster homes.
Councilmember Garfunkel felt the Council should provide a vision to the Planning Commission
and then refer the Comprehensive Plan to the Planning Commission for their review and
recommendations.
Item No. 16 - Councilmember Garfunkel suggested deleting this provision. Councilmember
O'Neill was in agreement as was Mayor Dahlberg.
LU-17
The consensus was to rewrite this section, deleting the reference to cluster housing. Nielsen
suggested there also needs to be some clarification as to where PUD will be utilized and under
what provisions. Councilmember O'Neill clarified it had been the agreement of the Council to
delete "cluster" from the Comprehensive Plan as a goal of the City.
.
LU-21
Last Paragraph - Nielsen noted this paragraph can be deleted since there are no plans to change
density from low density to low to medium density.
LU-27
With respect to a transitional area between lower density residential uses and high density uses
such as commercial, the goal is to locate the greater density of population nearer to the activity
center and major traffic area.

Nielsen explained that is being addressed by staff. Mayor Dahlberg felt this section should be

Councilmember O'Neill inquired whether Item No.2 had been done. Nielsen explained parks are
the primary focus for any of the neighborhoods. With respect to Item No.5, Councilmember
O'Neill suggested striking the reference to planned unit development.

. Item No.2 - It was the consensus of the Council to strike this provision.
TR-8
.
Item No. 11 - Councilmember O'Neill felt this should be addressed on a case by case basis since
the lay of the land would affect the decision to utilize curbs and gutters. Councilmember Garfunkel
noted his agreement. Mayor Dahlberg suggested new developments should consider curb and
gutter, however, the City will not mandate it. Nielsen noted new developments are currently
required to construct curb and gutter. Nielsen felt this issue could best be addressed by Engineer
Brown. Mayor Dahlberg inquired whether the City wants to impose architectural controls on a
development.
Councilmember O'Neill suggested adding the provision that other drainage solutions will be
considered when more economical and practical. Mayor Dahlberg commented if it is an aesthetic
issue, he would not want to mandate the use of curb and gutter, nor would he want their use to be
prohibited. In the event of an ecological, environmental or stormwater management issue, there
could be circumstances under which not having curb and gutter might be mandated on a case by
case basis. This could also apply in the alternative where curb and gutter might be mandated for
similar reasons. Nielsen suggested rewriting the provision to provide that new development shall
have curb and gutter where necessary to accommodate drainage.
Item No. 14 - The consensus of the Council was to strike the reference to cluster and PUD.
Item No. 15 - Mayor Dahlberg felt this to be an appropriate issue for a referendum. Hurm
commented Hamline University completed a study relative to garbage collection in Shorewood.
This information can be provided at a work session for Council review. Hurm also stated if the
City were organized similar to Excelsior or Tonka Bay, the taxpayers would save approximately
$150,000 to $200,000 per year in garbage collection alone. This does not factor in the damage
which is done to the streets. Mayor Dahlberg felt the residents should be informed of their
choices.

A. CONSIDERA TION OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDMENT
REGARDING LIQUOR AT THE SOUTHSHORE CENTER
Bob Gagne, 24850 Amlee Road, Chairman of the Friends of the Southshore Senior Center, was in
attendance. He explained to the Council there have been 25 requests for the rental of the facility.
He noted the rental fees and fundraising has been utilized to pay for the facility. Mr. Gagne noted
the Center is dependent upon the rental of the facility to meet the operating expenses.
Mr. Gagne explained there have been rental inquiries in which potential renters have wanted to be
allowed to have alcohol on the site. He noted this is currently not permitted, however, he
requested wine and beer be allowed to be served on the premises. The Council was provided with
a list a potential requirements which were developed by the Friends of the Southshore Center.
Councilmember Garfunkel questioned whether there is a need for a liquor license. Attorney Dean
explained under the local ordinance, a liquor license is required when alcohol is furnished either by
sale or by gift, although the state statute refers to a licensing activity as being one where alcohol is
served as part of a commercial transaction. He did not feel a license should be required given the
manner in which the activities are structured at the Center. Attorney Dean recommended the
policies and regulations relative to this issue be reviewed by the League of Minnesota Cities
Insurance Trust.
.
Mayor Dahlberg inquired whether the request would be restricted to beer and wine. Attorney Dean
explained this would include any alcoholic beverage. The proposed ordinance amendment
addresses the intoxicating liquor provision of the ordinance.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES
DECEMBER 3, 1997 - PAGE 3
Mr. Gagne noted he will be obtaining a copy of the rules and regulations which are currently
utilized at the Minnetonka Senior Center. Councilmember O'Neill requested Gagne supply the
Council with a copy of those regulations.
Councilmember Stover stated the Friends group intends to establish stringent restrictions to avoid
the possibility of any problems associated with the use of alcohol in the facility.
Councilmember O'Neill stated he supports the request, however, he would like to review the rules
and regulations prior to voting on this matter.
Mayor Dahlberg felt procedurally there would not be a problem with acting on this matter since the
Council will have the opportunity to review the rules and regulations before they are put into effect.
Councilmember Stover suggested granting approval contingent on the review and approval by the
City Council of the policies and regulations.
Stover moved, McCarty seconded adopting ORDINANCE NO. 325, "An
Ordinance Relating to Prohibited Acts and Conditions Amending Shorewood City
Code Section 403, Subd. 11." Motion passed 5/0.
.
B.
A MOTION REGARDING THE CONSUMPTION OF LIQUOR AT
THE SOUTHSHORE CENTER
Garfunkel moved, O'Neill seconded approving the consumption of liquor at the
Southshore Center subject to review and approval by the City Council of the
policies and regulations for such consumption. Motion passed 5/0.
Hurm noted the Center cannot allow beer or liquor to be served until the Council has reviewed and
approved the policies and regulations relative to such consumption.
Councilmember Stover requested this matter be placed on the next agenda for further
consideration. Attorney Dean asked Mr. Gagne to provide the proposed policies and regulations to
the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust for their review as well.

7. ADMINISTRATOR & STAFF REPORTS
Staff Report on Development Monitoring
City Engineer Brown reported relative to the lakeside watermain extension, several applicants have
voiced concerns relative to property issues and have requested the project be put on hold until such
time as these issues can be addressed. He explained this project will likely be advertised and bid in
the spring.
Mayor Dahlberg inquired relative to the Shady Island Bridge. Brown stated bituminous has been
applied to the bridge deck and the bridge has been opened to a 14-foot width. He anticipates the
bridge will be opened to its full width in the spring.
Mayor Dahlberg inquired relative to the Gideons Wood Development. Brown explained telephone
calls have been made to Mr. Bruce Newton relative to the storm sewer process. He was also
notified screening with the berm and fence was available. Brown noted he has not received any
response to his inquiries.
Finance Director Rolek reported he has met with a number of residents relative to the Truth in .
Taxation statements and encouraged any residents with questions relative to their statement to
contact him.
8. MA YOR & CITY COUNCIL REPORTS
Attorney Dean explained he has received a letter from Mr. Paul Weingarden, the attorney for Eagle
Crest, suggesting the Council may want to reconsider their denial of Eagle Crest's request based
on his belief the facts do not support the Council's decision and the City would likely lose in
litigation of this matter. Attorney Dean was of the opinion the case is defensible. He will make
Mr. Weingarden's letter available to the Council for their review.
Councilmember O'Neill commented on the preservation of green space in Shorewood and
requested this matter be considered in January. He also raised the issue of home occupations and
suggested the Planning Commission be directed to review the ordinance and ascertain what other
cities are doing in this regard. Mayor Dahlberg noted his agreement.
Councilmember Stover commented on new state laws relative to snowmobile regulations and .
questioned whether those will be sent out to the registered snowmobile owners in Shorewood.
Hurm stated this could be done. Councilmember Stover requested the Police Department also
receive a copy of the regulations.
Councilmember Stover inquired when lighting can be anticipated at the County Road 19/Country
Club Road intersection. Brown stated the signal has been scheduled for 1999. Brown has
inquired whether the Hennepin County Capital Improvement Program could be amended to allow
this work to be completed in 1998. He will contact Hennepin County Commissioner Penny Steele
to request her assistance in this matter. Councilmember O'Neill asked that information relative to
accidents in this area be obtained from the police department and provided to Commissioner Steele
as well. Brown was uncertain how easily this information could be obtained.
Councilmember Stover inquired whether there is sufficient space to accommodate a right turn lane
to accommodate traffic coming from Smithtown intending to travel to County Road 41. Brown.
stated this can be addressed as part of a signal justification report.

Mighty Kids Grant Proposal
for the
Youth Soccer Development Partnership Program
between
The City of Shorewood
and
T onka United Soccer Association
a Non-Profit, Charitable Corporation
.
Program Overview
This is a combined teaching and facility improvement program between Tonka
United Soccer and the City of Shorewood.
The teaching component of the program is intended to increase the number of
children participating in the entry-level, instructional and recreational soccer
program of Tonka United Soccer Association. This program will teach the skills
and lessons of the game of soccer as a team sport and healthy. life-long
physical activity to more of the youth of the 11 communities that Tonka United
serves. especially those who might otherwise not have the resources to pay
their own tuition. The program curriculum is focused on less experienced girls
and boys ages 5 - 11, who are just beginning to learn the game. They'll have
the opportunity to participate in a program that has been expertly developed
and will be taught by excellent coaches.
The primary educational objective of the program is to build a foundation of
solid technical skills that will give beginning players more facility in playing the
game, and more confidence to participate at a higher level, encouraging them
to continue playing. In order to achieve this objective, a professional coach will
be hired to work with the Director of Coaching to
The facility improvement portion of the program directs funds, matched dollar for
dollar by Tonka United, at improving existing facilities to assure community-
wide access and use of facilities which are located in one of 11 municipalities
served by Tonka United. The educational portion of the program will require
additional use of a Shorewood City Park, which is in need of upgrade and
infrastructural improvement in order to support this community-wide sports
educational effort. The facility improvement funds will go to re-surface. crown
and irrigate 3 full size multi-purpose fields over 3 years. The City of Shorewood
has permitted Tonka United to use of Freeman Park to create and administer
soccer programs that serve Shorewood and 10 neighboring municipalities for
10 years. Directing this funding at the improvement of the facility will allow the
City to continue to focus its considerable commitment toward maintenance.

Re:
Secretarial Position
For the last several months we have diligently tried to fill a secretarial position at City Hall.
Due to the nature of the job market and the requirements of the position, it has been quite a
difficult process.
We are happy to inform you that recently we received an application for this position from
Twila Grout. Twila did very well in both the practical and oral interview process and has
acceptably met all other requirements of the position (Le. background check, reference
check and physical).
Twila has worked for the past 15 years for an insurance company in varying positions
starting as a receptionist and working her way up to a supervisory position. Unfortunately
for her, the company decided to move its corporate headquarters out of state.
If hired, Twila will be offering clerical support to both the Engineering I Public Works
Department as well as Administration. We feel her background makes her a well qualified
candidate and look forward to welcoming her on our team.
Staff recommends the hiring of Twila Grout, effective immediately, at Step 1 ($10.46) for
the Full-time Oerical position of the salary scale.

B . REVIEW AGENDA
Chair Colopoulos read the Agenda for December 9, 1997. The agenda was accepted as presented.
2. DISCUSSION OF PROCEDURES FOR CONTINUATION OF REVIEW OF
THE CITY'S TRAIL PLAN
Mark Koegler, Hoisington Koegler Group, Inc., was present to facilitate the discussion. He
began with a brief explanation of his background and the service he provides.
Mr. Koegler explained the objective of the meeting is to determine whether there is an interest in
proceeding with a trail plan. He noted the scope of the Park Commission is to determine the level
of community support for a trail system in the City of Shorewood. This scope is broad and not
specific to a particular area
.
Mr. Koegler explained his expectation the meeting will result in direction to proceed or not
proceed. If there is a decision to proceed, he felt it should be accompanied by a commitment to
abide by the outcome. Mr. Koegler did not want to see the Commission and the Council agree to
things they are not committed to following through on. He noted this is not meant to predetermine
the outcome in any way. Mr. Koegler felt a process could be structured by which to determine the
broad issue of a trail system in Shorewood.
Mr. Koegler explained the handout including the objective to be accomplished, the process to be
followed as well as a list of tasks to be completed.
Commissioner Bensman stated the intent of the Commission to be that once a fmal report is
completed, the end result would be respected by the Council. Mr. Koegler clarified if there is
support, that support will be documented and a recommendation made to the Council. At that
point, the recommendation would be considered by the Council for their final decision. He noted
the Park Commission is attempting to provide the Council with a comfort level that the community
either does or does not support a trail system.

CITY COUNCIL/PARK COMMISSION MINUTES
DECEMBER 9, 1997 - PAGE 2
Mayor Dahlberg asked how the conclusion can be arrived at without actually knowing the specifics
of the plan. Mr. Koegler stated this process is geared toward determining whether there is
community support for a trail system. Councilmember Garfunkel noted his agreement with Mayor
Dahlberg. They felt the community would need a concrete plan to review in order to be able to
express an opinion one way or the other relative to a trail plan. Mr. Koegler felt there must first be
a determination whether or not there is support for a trail system within the community.
Mr. Koegler explained the working group referenced in his proposal would consist of community
members and not councilmembers or commissioners. This group would attempt to look at specific
issues the residents may have. He explained the detail issues could be addressed by this group and
depicted in computer graphics to demonstrate how a trail could fit into a particular type of
landscape.
Mr. Koegler stated an entire list of specific issues will result as a part of the process. These issues
will include personal property concerns residents may have as well as general safety concerns,
aesthetics and the cost involved.
Commissioner Bensman suggested looking at this as a trail system presupposing one trail is
connected to another trail. She felt there would always be individuals in favor of a trail as well as .
opposed, however, the trail needs to be addressed as a system with which to move through the
community. Mayor Dahlberg pointed out each part of the system must be viable to be connected.
Commissioner Bensman stated she would want to avoid going through the entire process, leading
people to believe a trail system will be developed and then it is halted by several citizens who are
opposed to a trail system.
Mayor Dahlberg felt one of the factors which will need to be addressed is whether residents would
be in favor of exchanging some property rights for the construction of a trail system.
Commissioner Puzak referenced a survey which was completed a year and a half ago asking
whether the community wants a trail system. He noted a significant number of residents expressed
an interest in a trail system, however, he felt there to be a lack of confidence in the survey given the
f~ct an abstract question was asked and there is some question relative to the answer which was
gIven.
Commissioner Puzak explained this is a very costly design process which would require the Park .
Commission, Planning Commission and Council work together on this issue. He noted the
Commission does not want to expend the time and funds on this issue to find the Council is
opposed to a trail system.
Councilmember O'Neill stated there is significant interest in a trail system, however, this interest
wanes when a property owner is made aware how close the trail will be to their front door. He felt
the difficultly to be retre-fitting a trail to a city which is already substantially developed.
Commissioner Puzak felt there to be two major barriers to proceeding. He noted no one has a
great deal of confidence the community wants a trail system. There is an issue of the immediately
adjoining property owners. He did not feel an entire trail system would affect more than 10 or 12
percent of the community. The second issue is the detail and the potential for encountering barriers
and how they can be addressed once they are encountered.
Mayor Dahlberg felt the process could be shortened by presenting alternative plans. Commissioner
Puzak noted the Commission was unable to shortened the process, however, he felt with the
cooperation of the Council, this may be possible. Mayor Dahlberg suggested the Council could
assist in shortening the process.
CITY COUNCILIPARK COMMISSION MINUTES
DECEMBER 9, 1997 - PAGE 3
Councilmember O'Neill suggested rather than a citywide trail system, creating a trail system for
one neighborhood at a time. He suggested speaking with the residents fIrst and then proceeding.
He inquired whether this would be a viable option.
Mr. Koegler explained anything the community does must reflect the needs and the interests of its
residents, however, it must be in balance with what the community as a whole is attempting to
achieve.
Mr. Koegler related his belief there is a benefIt to people of different neighborhoods coming
together to discuss the issue. The process being presented is geared toward a grass roots level.
Mayor Dahlberg stated a top down management approach would be rejected. He explained
Shorewood is a diverse city with very different neighborhoods and one way to keep peace is to
empower neighborhoods.
Commissioner Puzak remarked the nature of trails is that of an interconnecting pathway between
communities, neighborhoods or housing developments. He stated the value of a trail system is that
it does bridge the neighborhoods.
.
Mayor Dahlberg stated he is unsure the community feels it is essential to ensure the entire
community is interconnected.
.
Commissioner Puzak felt two different plans may be appropriate. One would be a west side plan
which would focus around the LRT. There may be a very different concept for the east side.
Commissioner Puzak felt it would be benefIcial to work with Excelsior in developing a link. He
also suggested a pedestrian bridge over Mill Street to cross Highway 7. Commissioner Puzak
pointed out the island area is not included in either plan.
Mayor Dahlberg suggested pressure could be taken out of the trail plan if it were not looked upon
as a transportation solution for people to move through the community. Commissioner Puzak
commented that the trail may be three distinct pieces, but expressed concern that breaking it down
into very small neighborhood pieces, the entire concept may be lost.
Councilmember O'Neill stated it is the job of the Council, the Commission and the engineers to
assure the various trails all flow together. He commented he is also opposed to utilizing a top
down method of allowing a majority of the city decide for everyone there will be a trail system
throughout the city.
Mayor Dahlberg stated in some regard there is a property rights issue involved which.will probably
be a Council policy related issue.
Commissioner Puzak noted there are barriers to proceeding which indicates the City must utilize a
fair, open and creative process in either breaking through the barriers or in going around them.
Councilmember Garfunkel inquired what happens when an obstacle is encountered with no
technical way around it. He asked whether the trail would be put in regardless of the feelings of
the residents.
Mr. Koegler asked what threshold of resistance the Council is willing to tolerate. Mayor Dahlberg
felt creativity to be a tremendous key to the issue.
Commissioner Puzak expressed concern that opportunities are missed as time goes by. He felt the
Planning Commission should also be involved in this planning.
CITY COUNCIL/PARK COMMISSION MINUTES
DECEMBER 9, 1997 - PAGE 4
Councilmember O'Neill stated if a neighborhood is opposed to a trail through their neighborhood,
the Council will not force a trail through. Mr. Koegler stated this process will attempt to gain a
better understanding of some of those issues, wherever they happen to occur, so the City can be in
a position to create a solution around a particular issue. He pointed out this is a grass roots process
as opposed to a top down process.
Councilmember Garfunkel felt it would appear to be a top down process to the neighborhoods.
Mr. Koegler felt with sufficient publicity of the process there will be a better understanding among
the residents.
Commissioner Packard asked what option is available if Mr. Koegler's plan is not utilized.
Councilmember Garfunkel felt the alternative would be to drop the plan.
.J
Engineer Brown questioned whether a survey could address the personalized issue of whether
there would be support for a trail which comes through a property owner's front yard. Mayor
Dahlberg felt most residents would not be in favor of the trail coming through their property,
however, they would be willing to compromise.
Brown asked how the plan would be adapted to go around a neighborhood which chooses not to ..
participate. Councilmember Garfunkel commented this does not have to be an all or nothing issue.
Mayor Dahlberg stated if the overwhelming majority of the City wants a system, the Council
would not stand in their way. Councilmember O'Neill felt each area must be addressed
independently.
Councilmember Garfunkel commented on the issue of stability which a resident expects when they
move into the community. He stated changes must be approached seriously and cautiously.
Chair Colopoulos felt there to be an issue of degree of support and the number of opposition could
be reduced through creativity in addressing the issue.
Councilmember Garfunkel stated the fIrst step is to fmd out if the residents really want a trail
system. He felt a survey should come before a community forum.
Chair Colopoulos inquired in what priority this matter should be addressed. Councilmember
O'Neill felt if a citywide trail system is something a majority of the citizens want it could be
handled as a priority, however a defInite plan needs to be presented.
Councilmember Garfunkel felt the outcome of the survey can depend on how the questions are
asked. Mayor Dahlberg stated the residents need to be asked, through a survey, how-they feel
about a trail going through their own property.
Mayor Dahlberg stated he would like to review this matter further. He noted there is a safety issue
which has been raised relative to a potential trail on Smithtown Trail given the close proximity to
higher speed traffic. There is also an issue of whether or not bicycles will be permitted on the trail.
Mr. Koegler stated the set of issues which are ultimately determined may lead the City to believe
early on there are areas of the community were a trail simply cannot be accomplished. He
explained the Commission's intent was to utilize a grass roots approach to determining the issues.
Mayor Dahlberg and Councilmember O'Neill stated they cannot commit to abide by the outcome.
Mr. Koegler stated the intent was for the Council to have a comfort level that this is the right
approach to obtain answers relative to a citywide trail plan. Chair Colopoulos felt, based upon his
experience with the Snowmobile Task Force, the contentious nature of debate and discourse will
yield a more complete outcome than would otherwise be achieved.

CITY COUNCILIPARK COMMISSION MINUTES
DECEMBER 9, 1997 - PAGE 5
Councilmember O'Neill felt the Commission should proceed through the survey and public forums
and then re-evaluate the issue. He felt there to be sufficient interest to proceed.
Chair Puzak questioned whether the Council is comfortable with the Commission proceeding on
this issue. Mayor Dahlberg stated he would like to review the matter before coming to a decision.
He would like specific ideas on how this can be accomplished. Councilmember O'Neill noted the
Park Commission will be getting the citizens involved in the process.
Councilmember Garfunkel was in favor of obtaining information, but would like there to be
Council check points along the way. Commissioner Puzak suggested the survey which is sent out
be approved by the Council. Mr. Koegler noted this to be standard procedure to obtain Council's
approval of the survey.
.
Mayor Dahlberg commended the Park Commission on their work in inviting the Council's
participation to discuss the viability of the process and giving the Council management oversight of
the project. Mr. Koegler commented Council involvement is essential at each one of the steps.
Commissioner Puzak summarized there is consensus among Mayor Dahlberg and Councilmembers
O'Neill and Garfunkel that the Commission will proceed with the caveat there be management
oversight by the Council. He requested another open forum be held between the Commission and
the Council before the Council reaches a final conclusion on this matter.
It was agreed that if a dispute arises, there will be a resolution meeting between the Commission
and the Council. Councilmember O'Neill noted there is a Council Liaison at the Park Commission
meetings and did not feel the Council would need to meet with the Park Commission at every step.
Councilmember Garfunkel inquired relative to the cost which is involved in this process. Mr.
Koegler explained the process, including the survey, will cost approximately $10,000. The survey
will cost from $4,000 to $5,000.
Mr. Koegler summarized implementation of the process will begin. The Council will be kept
informed and will have oversight capacity. The format will be formulated relative to the
community forum. This will include a communication plan.

Mr. Dennis Pipkom was in attendance along with Brian Pipkom, Bill Aske, and Architect Wayne
Jeske. He noted the business conducted by the nursery is 50 percent retail and 50 percent
landscaping. Mr. Pipkom stated the objective is to improve the appearance of the property and
provide a more desirable atmosphere for their customers.
Mr. Pipkom stated the recommendations of staff are acceptable. He addressed the issue of staff
recommendation "A" relative to the driveway on Wood Duck Circle. Mr. Pipkom explained a
driveway has been eliminated and he would like to keep the driveway depicted on the diagram
because it provides good access for employees of the nursery. It also relieves congestion during
the spring months.
With respect to recommendation "D", with the constraints of the lot size, he stated it would be
helpful to use the area up to the lot line which is public property. There would be only plant stock
and nonstructure type materials in this area.

Chair Pisula opened the public hearing at 7 :25 p.m.
Craig Hewitt, 5727 Wood Duck Circle, was in agreement with the staff recommendation to
eliminate the access on Wood Duck Circle. He expressed. concern relative to lighting and fencing
of the property. He was also concerned the bin storage area could be moved so that it will not
impact the nearby residence.
Hearing no further testimony, Chair Pisula closed the public hearing at 7:26 p.m.
Mr. Pipkorn explained a four foot high cyclone type fence will be utilized for security purposes.
Mr. Jeske addressed the lighting issue explaining the lighting will be in compliance with the
ordinance which provides there shall be no lights which shine outside of the property lines.
Commissioner Borkon raised the issue of ingress and egress from County Road 19. She noted
this to be a difficult turn given the speed on County Road 19. Nielsen explained the eastern most
driveway is wider to accommodate the traffic coming in and out of the property. He noted
Hennepin County's approval will be required relative to the revised access to the highway.
Commissioner Champa suggested constructing one larger driveway. Brian Pipkorn felt this would .
create congestion on the property. He felt the driveway could be widened if he were allowed to cut
into the City's setback area. Nielsen noted the driveway is currently approximately 35 feet wide
and he expressed some concern Hennepin County may not approve a driveway of this width.
Commissioner Borkon questioned whether there is a need to accommodate an area for discarded
statuaries and things of this nature. Mr. Aske did not feel such an area would be necessary, noting
all of this debris which had been on the site has been discarded.
Commissioner Kolstad asked whether there would be a problem with trees in the eastern setback
area. Nielsen stated if there were a 6-foot wooden type fence to screen the materials, this may be
acceptable. The materials which are placed in this area could not be higher than the fence.
Commissioner Kolstad felt the applicant should be required to maintain shrubbery and trees around
the eastern and southern perimeters which would provide a screen between the site and the adjacent
residences.
Commissioner Lizee inquired how stormwater runoff will be accommodated. Nielsen explained .
the runoff will come down the driveway and will go into the existing pond.
Commissioner Lizee questioned where the overflow parking is located. Nielsen stated there is
room for a single car to park along the display area. The code requires 16 spaces and there are
currently 19 on the site without the overflow space.
Commissioner Lizee asked whether this will be a holding or growing type of greenhouse. Mr.
Aske stated it is a holding type greenhouse. Commissioner Lizee inquired relative to water
recirculation for the greenhouse and whether pesticides and fertilizers are used on the premises.
Mr. Aske explained at this time, everything is watered by hand. He stated well water is primarily
used with some fungicide which was used on the roses. Mr. Dennis Pipkorn commented there
will be no bulk storage of pesticides or fertilizers on the site.
Commissioner Borkon raised the issue of water run off after fertilization. Nielsen suggested
Engineer Brown review the issue of drainage and report back to the Commission.
Commissioner Champa felt car traffic from Wood Duck would be acceptable, however, he did not
feel trucks should be allowed through this access.
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
DECEMBER 2, 1997 - PAGE 3
Commissioner Borkon inquired whether fertilizers are utilized on the site. Mr. Aske stated there
are no fertilizers used other than on the roses. He stated the only fertilizers which will be sold on
the site will be Miracle Grow and spray bottles of insecticide.
Commissioner Turgeon expressed concern relative to what types of materials would be allowed to
be stored in the setback area. In addition, she inquired whether the applicants have obtained the
approval of the owner of the property relative to this request. Mr. Pipkorn noted this has not yet
been obtained.
Commissioner Turgeon stated she would like to see the necessary approvals from the property
owner, MNDOT, the City Engineer, in addition to hardcover calculations relative to this request.
Chair Pisula commended the applicants for the effort they have put into their proposal.
Commissioner Borkon noted there are concerns relative to hard surface cover, drainage, ingress
and egress as well as the owner's approval. She suggested tabling this matter to allow the
applicant an opportunity to address these issues at the next meeting of the Planning Commission.
. Council Liaison O'Neill felt it would be helpful to obtain further information relative to the
greenhouse as well. Commissioner Borkon noted her agreement.
Borkon moved, Turgeon seconded tabling consideration of the C.U.P. for
Shorewood Nursery Renovation for Brian Pipkorn, Akorn Services, Inc., 23505
Smithtown Road, to the January 6, 1998, meeting of the Planning Commission.
Motion passed 6/0.
2. PUBLIC HEARING - PRELIMINARY PLAT - MARY LAKE WOODS
Applicant:
Location:
James Wyman
24020 Yellowstone Trail
~.
Mr. Wyman was in attendance. He thanked Planning Director Nielsen and staff for their assistance
in this matter. Mr. Wyman explained he and his wife intend to occupy the existing home on Lot 7.
As a result, Mr. and Mrs. Wyman have a strong vested interest in the quality of the development.
Jim Orr, Schoell & Madson, Inc., was in attendance. He commented on the requirement for a
_ gravel drive in the area of the NURP pond basin. Mr. Orr did not feel there to be a need for access
to be provided to the NURP basin. He felt the remaining concerns raised by staff could be
addressed and resolved.
Chair Pisula opened the public hearing at 8:31 p.m.
Jim Hamstra, 23930 Yellowstone Trail, expressed concern relative to the water level of the lake
and felt the well needs to be maintained. Mr. Hamstra offered to provide information to Engineer
Brown relative to the high and low water marks of the lake.
John Legler, 5955 Country Club Road, expressed concern relative to the access which is proposed
for the southerly edge of his property line. He would like to ensure the existing seclusion and
wooded feel of the property is maintained. Mr. Legler felt if a green space of 70 feet could be
maintained between his property line and the edge of the road, this would provide ample space for
him to address the issue of screenage. Mr. Legler asked the Commission to take into consideration
this development will impinge on the secluded nature of his own lot. He noted a number of trees
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
DECEMBER 2, 1997 - PAGE 4
will need to be removed and expressed concern relative to the replacement of the trees to provide
screenage between the properties.
Hamilton May, 5765 Echo Road, expressed concern relative to access to the turn around from his
lot as well as the ability to hook up to sewer service. He inquired relative to an easement for sewer
service. Mr. May referenced a lawsuit involving Mary Lake and explained the ownership of the
well was vested in the Condons. At the time the water level reaches the 952 water elevation, the
cost of operation of the well shifts from the City to the Condons. .
Art Beniek, 24240 Yellowstone Trail, expressed concern relative to the location of the lot line.
Mr. Hamstra questioned whether there will be a pedestrian access easement between Lots 6 and 7
down to the lake. He felt it should be limited to pedestrians with snowmobiles being prohibited.
Peggy Wilson, 24140 Yellowstone Trail, expressed concern relative to the traffic. She noted three
accesses to Highway 7 have been closed which has resulted in a significant amount of traffic and
this project will add the traffic of seven households. She felt this should be taken into
consideration when addressing the closure of accesses to Highway 7.
Hearing no further testimony, Chair Pisula closed the public hearing at 8:45 p.m.
Mr. Wyman remarked he is open and willing to work with property owners in the area. He is
willing to work with the Planning Commission and adjacent home owners in developing a
landscape plan. He noted there are approximately 114 trees which will require replacement.
Mr. Wyman stated if the maintenance of the well passes on to him, he would like to continue to
operate it and would be willing to work with the neighbors in addressing the issue of the lake level.
Mr. Wyman stated he would be happy to comply with subdivision requirements relative to the
sewer easement necessary for Mr. May's property.
With respect to the pedestrian access to the lake, Mr. Wyman stated he has considered this,
however, he would like additional time to further consider this matter.

DECEMBER 2, 1997 - PAGE 5
Commissioner Kolstad inquired whether there are any regulations relative to operating a deep well.
Nielsen noted this would not be allowed today. The current well was court ordered because of the
disturbance to the seal on the wetland. He noted the DNR is opposed to reactivating these type of
wells. Mr. Hamstra stated in the last 12 years, the well has probably been used in two or three of
those years.
Commissioner Kolstad questioned whether Lot 8 could be further subdivided at some point in the
future. Nielsen stated the inadequate width would make it difficult to make two separate lots.
Commissioner Kolstad suggested a change in zoning to RIA to make it consistent with the current
development and avoid the possibility of a subdivision at some point in the future. Nielsen did not
feel this property could be developed without very substantial variances, however the site does
meet the RIA requirements.
Dave Witer, 23820 Yellowstone Trail, noted his agreement with Commissioner Kolstad's
suggestion relative to a rezoning and expressed concern the spirit of Mr. Wyman's intent would be
lost upon a sale of the property.
Commissioner Kolstad commended Mr. Wyman on his sensitivity and commitment to making this
a quality development. She suggested considering the rezoning of Lot 8 as well as exercising
some control over the use of the well. Commissioner Kolstad stated she would like to see the
planting of some of the 114 replacement trees to take place along the north side of the roadway or
any part of the roadway which adjoins other residential properties.
Commissioner Borkon commended Mr. Wyman on the spirit of his plan. She expressed concern
relative to the letter Engineer Brown received from Paul Hornby of OSM. She expressed concern
relative to the speed limit of 30 miles per hour on Mary Lake Trail. Nielsen noted this is a state
requirement.
Commissioner Borkon commented relative to the easement for the NURP pond and she felt it
important there be access to the pond.
Commissioner Turgeon felt this to be a workable plan. She commented in 1999 there will not be
municipal water available in this area and therefore wells would be required.
Commissioner Turgeon asked that the issue of the Mary Lake well be investigated and clarified.
She is opposed to a gravel Class V driveway and would prefer the drive from the Wyman's
property be brought through to the NURP pond.
Chair Pisula asked whether the issue of traffic needs to be addressed. Nielsen stated the Highway
7 access closures are currently being reviewed by the Council.
Chair Pisula noted some concern had been raised relative to Lot 8 which is in the RIC district. He
asked whether this property needs to be rezoned or whether this matter can be addressed through a
covenant. Nielsen stated if Mr. Wyman does not object to RIA zoning, this would create a 50-foot
front yard setback as opposed to a 35-foot front yard setback. Mr. Wyman stated he would like to
review the front yard setback prior to making a decision.
Commissioner Champa commented would like to review the area and if there is a viable alternative
to curb and gutter, he would like that to be considered. He would prefer a solution more consistent
with the aesthetics of the surrounding area. Council Liaison O'Neill explained to Mr. Wyman the
majority of the Council would probably favor a variance relative to not using curb and gutter,
however, he stated the Council would not force him to not utilize this option. Mr. Wyman stated
he would like to review this matter.

3. PUBLIC HEARING - PRELIMINARY PLAT - MARY LAKE ADDITION
Applicant:
Location:
Judith Gleason, representing O'Dell Tinnesand
5910 Minnetonka Drive
Planning Director Nielsen recommended this matter be tabled to allow the applicant sufficient time
to demonstrate he has the ability to obtain the easement over the adjoining property as well as the
necessary Watershed District approval. Mr. Roger Anderson was in attendance and addressed the
issues which were raised by the City Engineer.
The Commission was provided a copy of a letter dated November 14, 1997, from Troy Gamble, .
Professional Engineer, Roger Anderson & Associates, to Nielsen responding to questions and
concerns which had been raised at the October 7, 1997 meeting ofthe Planning Commission. Mr.
Anderson reviewed this letter in detail.
Chair Pisula opened the public hearing at 9:49 p.m.
Roger Luebke, 5915 Minnetonka Drive, stated water is flowing through the culvert underneath
Minnetonka Drive and it therefore does exist. He noted the culvert has not been identified by metal
detectors because it is not constructed of metal.
Mr. Witer commented relative to easements stating he would not be inclined to grant an easement
relative to a storm sewer. He expressed concern relative to preserving the existing trees and this
easement would result in the loss of a number of trees. He stated he will keep an open mind, but
his inclination is that he would not be in favor of an easement. Mr. Witer felt there to be drainage
issues and he requested additional information relative to easements.
.
Hearing no further testimony, Chair Pisula closed the public hearing at 10:00 p.m.
Commissioner Kolstad questioned who performed the wetland delineation. Mt. Anderson
explained a wetland delineation has not been completed, however, a wetlands expert could be
utilized.
Commissioner Kolstad inquired whether there has been a resolution regarding the culvert on
Minnetonka Drive. Mr. Anderson felt this issue can be addressed.
Commissioner Kolstad asked about the stormwater calculations and who prepared them. Mr.
Anderson noted he had prepared them and had been more conservative in his calculations than the
City had been. The calculations have been submitted to the City for review.
Commissioner Kolstad expressed concern that this is a low area which sometimes floods and
asked how the wetland delineation is being handled. Nielsen explained when a wetland is not
apparent, the City relies on the applicant's consultants to perform the necessary testing. If there is
a question relative to the wetland, the matter is referred to the Watershed District.
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
DECEMBER 2, 1997 - PAGE 7
Commissioner Turgeon questioned whether these issues can be resolved given the fact this request
has already been tabled twice since October and there does not seem to be substantial progress
which has been made.
Mr. Anderson noted he received the City Engineer's letter just the day prior to this meeting. In
addition, he noted his understanding this matter has been tabled on only one prior occasion.
Commissioner Turgeon commented the points raised in the report of OSM will need to be
addressed at the February 3, 1998 meeting of the Planning Commission.
Turgeon moved, Lizee seconded tabling the request for preliminary plat - Mary
Lake Addition for Judith Gleason, representing O'Dell Tinnesand, 5910
Minnetonka Drive to the February 3, 1998 meeting of the Planning Commission.
Motion passed 6/0.
4. PUBLIC HEARING - C.U.P. FOR SPECIAL HOME OCCUPATION
PERMIT
.
Applicant:
Location:
Sondra Traylor
23115 Summit Avenue
.
Dr. Traylor was in attendance. She did not feel backing out of the driveway to be of concern based
upon her experience. She felt there would consistently be only one car in the driveway. Based
upon her observations, there has been overlapping of patients only once per day.
Dr. Traylor inquired whether she would be able to obtain a variance relative to the number of
parking spaces which are required. Nielsen explained a variance could be requested, however, Dr.
Traylor would be required to demonstrate hardship which does not allow her to make reasonable
use of the property without the variance. He felt it unlikely a hardship could be demonstrated.
Commissioner Borkon inquired what would become of the nonconforming paved area. Nielsen
explained it would be eliminated.
Chair Pisula opened the public hearing at 10:30 p.m.
Art Partridge felt this to be a commercial use which has been permitted without a public hearing.
He felt if a doctor office is to be permitted, the property should be zoned in that fashion. Mr.
. Partridge remarked if Dr. Traylor's business is such that an employee is required, perhaps a
commercial office space would be more appropriate. Mr. Partridge noted there haye been cars
parked in the nonconforming area all week.
Commissioner Turgeon pointed out this employee would be hired for purposes of office type work
and would actually not be increasing the business. Mr. Partridge expressed concern relative to
how this situation would be monitored.
Jane Partridge felt a mistake had been made in issuing a home occupation permit which allows this
use on the property.
Commissioner Borkon inquired relative to the requirements for a Conditional Use Permit. Nielsen
explained the issues of traffic, parking, signage, and hours of operation are to be considered when
issuing a Conditional Use Permit.
Hearing no further testimony, Chair Pisula closed the public hearing at 10:36 p.m.
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
DECEMBER 2, 1997 - PAGE 8
Dr. Traylor noted she has spoken with the adjacent neighbors who do not have a problem with this
request. Mrs. Partridge stated she is not opposed to Dr. Traylor's business, but she is opposed to
the business being expanded.
Commissioner Borkon asked how many hours it is anticipated the employee would be working.
Dr. Traylor anticipates this person would work four mornings per week from 9:00 to 12:30 or 1:00
p.m. The employee would work a maximum of 26 hours per week with the office being open
Monday through Thursday.
Commissioner Borkon commented she is sympathetic to the concerns of the neighbors and the
potential impact to the neighborhood. She stated she would be in favor of a Conditional Use
Permit with a review provision as well as set guidelines which would contain documented reasons
for denying the Conditional Use Permit.
Commissioner Champa noted the street to be narrow, consisting of only 14 feet. He felt the safest
thing to do would be to leave the nonconforming area in place even though it would require a
variance. He did not feel the proposed resolution to be as safe as the existing conditions.
Commissioner Champa suggested the Commission give consideration to a variance. Nielsen
pointed out a variance has not been requested, however, a hardship would need to be determined.
Commissioner Turgeon expressed concern relative to safety in backing out of the driveway given
the proximity to the curve and stated she would not be in favor of a variance.
.
Chair Pisula did not feel the increased use should be granted given the limited area which exists at
the subject site. He explained a variance would require a determination that the applicant does not
have reasonable use of her property.
Borkon moved, Champa seconded denying a C.U.P. for Special Home Occupation
Permit for Sondra Traylor, 23115 Summit Avenue given the configuration of the
lot impeding ingress and egress to the property. Motion failed 3/3.
(Commissioners Kolstad, Lizee and Turgeon were the dissenting votes.)
Commissioner Turgeon noted the applicant has a limited home occupation permit, she is not
intending to expand the business and, therefore, the traffic is going to remain the same. She noted
ingress and egress were apparently not a problem in issuing the limited home occupation permit
and the patients were permitted to park in front of the garage. .
_ Commissioner Champa stated he would be in favor of granting the Conditional Use Permit if the
current nonconforming parking area were to remain in place.
Commissioner Turgeon commented she would be agreeable to a review of the Conditional Use
Permit after a specified period of time. Commissioner Borkon remarked that possibly the limited
home occupation permit should not have been given originally because the location is not
conducive to business given the characteristics of the property. Nielsen noted Dr. Traylor is in
compliance with the original limited home occupation permit.
Nielsen explained this matter may proceed on to the Council for their consideration where a 4/5
vote would be required.
Commissioner Kolstad stated she would be willing to look at the possibility of a variance if legal
information were provided relative to what is considered to be reasonable use. Commissioner
Champa suggested looking at the possibility of a variance. Commissioner Borkon would be
willing to explore the possibility, but would make no promises. Commissioners Turgeon and
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
DECEMBER 2, 1997 - PAGE 9
Lizee felt it would be very difficult to grant a variance. Commissioner Pisula stated he would not
consider a variance.
This matter will come before the City Council for their consideration on December 15, 1997.
COJ;nmissioner Champa requested a joint work session be scheduled with the Council relative to
vanances.
Mr. Partridge commended the Commission on taking the time to visit the property and to spend the
amount of time on this issue as was spent on the larger issues.
5. DISCUSSION OF CENTER ISSUES WITH BOB GAGNE. CHAIR,
FRIENDS OF THE SOUTHSHORE SENIOR/COMMUNITY CENTER
.
Bob Gagne was in attendance and reported there have been 25 requests for the rental of the facility.
He noted the rental fees and fundraising has been utilized to pay for the facility. Mr. Gagne noted
the center is dependent upon the rental of the facility to meet the operating expenses.
Mr. Gagne explained there have been rental inquiries in which potential renters have wanted to be
allowed to have alcohol on the site. He noted this is currently not permitted, however, he
requested wine and beer be allowed to be served on the premises. Mr. Gagne distributed a list a
potential requirements which were developed by the Friends of the Southshore Senior/Community
Center.
It was noted there is a provision in the Conditional Use Permit which prohibits the use of alcohol
on this site. The following information was provided to the Planning Commission by Mr. Gagne.
Points to discuss at the Park Meeting regarding the request to serve wine and/or beer at the
Southshore Center.
1 . People from our community are requesting to use the facility for special parties
where they would like to serve wine. Example, the Townhouse Association who
wanted to have a Christmas dinner for the group did not rent because they could not
serve wine with the meal.
.
2.
We would develop policies regarding the serving of wine and/or beer such as: .
a. No kegs - beer must be served out of cans or bottles.
b. Wine and/or beer can only be served with food.
c. Beer and wine (including champagne) may be served at activities must
include the serving of food. These beverages must be provided by the
organization, group or persons hosting the activity or event.
d. No compensation of any nature may be exchanged for beer or wine. This
includes donations, advance sale tickets and tips.
e. Beer and wine may only be served until 10:30 p.m. on week nights and 12
midnight on Friday and Saturday evenings.
f. All parties consuming beer and wine in the Dining Room shall be required
to conform to all City and State liquor laws.
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
DECEMBER 2, 1997 - PAGE 10
g. Beer and wine may only be consumed within the Community Center.
h. In activities or functions where beer and/or wine is served, it may be
required that the organization or group hire a police officer for all or part of
the event.
Commissioners Champa and Kolstad felt if beer and wine are to be permitted, an off duty police or
security officer should be present. .
Champa moved, Turgeon seconded recommending consideration of the request for
beer and wine or liquor for the Southshore Senior Community Center. Motion
passed 6/0.
Chair Pisula recessed the meeting at 11 :30 p.m. and reconvened at 11 :35 p.m.
6. DISCUSSION - PROPOSED MORATORIUM ON SENIOR HOUSING
Commissioner Turgeon felt a study would have to be completed to justify a change in the
ordinance relative to senior housing. She felt it to be necessary to have the input of the citizens .
before a change can be made.
Commissioner Borkon questioned what sort of format the Council would intend to use. Nielsen
commented the Council has expressed some basic concerns relative to the ordinance and he was
unsure at this point whether a survey will be necessary.
Nielsen stated the Planning Commission will receive the Council's concerns along with the current
ordinance. It was noted there is Council concern relative to protecting a specific class of people.
Density is another area of significant concern.
Commissioner Turgeon questioned whether it would be more appropriate to place a moratorium on
all development of lot splits of three or more if certain pieces of property are to be considered for
specific types of development which may be set aside for more affordable type housing. Nielsen
commented the Council discussed affordability and Mayor Dahlberg questioned why seniors are
single out as a protected class. Council Liaison O'Neill commented the issue became the fact that
any parcel can be turned into higher density. He felt the approach of the current Council may be to
designate one or two pieces of land so the affected neighborhood is aware that particular piece of .
land may some day be a higher density. .
Borkon moved, Kolstad seconded supporting a one year moratorium, _or less if
resolved sooner, on senior housing. Motion passed 5/1. (Commissioner Lizee
was the dissenting vote.)
Commissioner Lizee felt the moratorium should encompass more than senior housing.
7. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
Roger Champa addressed the issue of dogs running at large within the City. It was noted dogs
must be leashed or under voice command.
It was suggested the Commission revisit the ordinance relative to dogs and the use of invisible
fence. Nielsen stated this would be an issue for the Council to address rather than the Planning
Commission.

1. DISCUSSION - RESOLUTION AND ORDINANCE REGARDING THE MORATORIUM
ON SENIOR HOUSING
Chair Pisula noted the resolution had not been available to the Commission at the time the matter was
discussed. Upon a review, it became apparent there were some questions which would have affected
the discussion. He felt there may be some suggestions which can be made which would align
themselves with the goals of the Council.
Chair Pisula stated the purpose of the meeting is to review the ordinance and make suggestions to the
Council relative to the ordinance and ways which it may be made more effective.
.
Commissioner Turgeon suggested since there is going to be a moratorium, possibly a moratorium on
PUDs as a whole should be considered. This would create an opportunity to review and reconsider the
existing criteria.
Commissioner Kolstad suggested reviewing the zoning ordinance as it relates to PUDs, including senior
housing. Chair Pisula noted the major concerns of the community tend to be related to Planned Unit
Developments.
Commissioner Lizee suggested extending the moratorium to include the remaining large parcels of
property within the city. She suggested lots of two or more be included in the moratorium.
Commissioner Kolstad stated if the moratorium is specific to PUDs, a plan for a straight subdivision
could be requested and the City would have no control over it.
Commissioner Lizee felt since the Council is addressing the Comprehensive Plan, the code book and the
zoning districts, all of the elements need to be addressed. Commissioner Lizee suggested including
subdivisions of three or more.
PLANNING COMMISSION SPECIAL MEETING
DECEMBER 9, 1997 - PAGE 2
Chair Pisula felt there would be community opposition to including subdivisions of two or more. He
stated it is possible for people to bring forth development projects on the remaining land which do
comply with the ordinance and where the residents surrounding the property are included in the
process and then a proposal is presented which satisfies everyone. Chair Pisula felt there to be a
common ground on the issue of Planned Unit Development where there is current PUD zoning or a
proposal comes forward which requests a PUD.
Chair Pisula pointed out the community is almost 90 percent developed. The projects which arise now
are likely to be infill type projects. The projects where a PUD is likely to be used will raise the
greatest concern and probably be the most challenging. Chair Pisula felt the moratorium should be
broadened to include PUD which will serve the interests of the community as well as the City.
Commissioner Kolstad summarized the properties currently zoned PUD, tagged PUD, developed PUD
or PUD requests would be included in the moratorium.
.
Commissioner Turgeon noted clustering is a major component of a PUD and this issue will need to be
addressed. Clustering needs to be defined as well as a determination made when it is appropriate to use
it. Commissioner Kolstad stated there may be times when clustering is appropriate.
Commissioner Kolstad suggested the concept of limiting the percentage of the building pad with
respect to the lot size. This would preserve green space as well as trees.
Commissioner Turgeon reported on the City Council Meeting of December 3, 1997, and discussed
various issues which will be referred to the Commission for review and consideration.
Turgeon moved, Kolstad seconded adding to the ordinance the issues of readdressing the POO
criteria, further clarifying it, looking at where it is zoned, looking at where proposals would
warrant use of PUD, and limiting the building size to a percent of the lot size. Motion passed .
4/0.
Commissioner Turgeon will present this recommendation to the Council on December -15, 1997, and
request they consider including these issues as a part of the moratorium.

Mary Lake Woods - Preliminary Plat
405(97.34)
BACKGROUND
.
Mr. James Wyman has submitted a preliminary plat for his property located at 24020
Yellowstone Trail (see Site Location map -Exhibit A, attached); He proposes to subdivide
the property into eight single-family residential lots as shown on Exhibit B.
The property consists of a number of parcels of land which have been assembled over the
years by the previous owner. The total area of the property is 16.97 acres, of which
approximately 3.13 acres exist as wetlands. . The terrain of the property consists of a series
of hills, separated by two wetlands, all of which are connected by a lOO-foot wide strip of
land which was used years ago as streetcar right-of-way. Mary Lake, which lies on the
east end of the property, is actually classified as a wetland. Upland vegetation on the
property consists primarily ofa mix of hardwood deciduous trees scattered throughout the
site with open areas of grass which coincide. with some of the higher elevations.
The subject property is zoned R-IA, Single-Family Residential, except for the northeasterly
two acres which is zoned R-IC. Mr. Wyman's home is located on the southeasterly 3.7
acres of the site. Land use and zoning surrounding the property are as follows:
North: Single-family residential; zoned R-IA and R-IC

ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Upon review of the applicant's plaIls, the Shorewood Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Code
and Subdivision Code, the following issues should be considered in the evaluation of this
request: ----'
'-,
A. Comprehensive Plan. The proposed use of the property is consistent with the
Shorewood Comprehensive Plan, which recommends low density residential (0-1
units per acre) development for the area in which the property is located.
B. Zonin~ Code. Single-family residential homes are permitted uses in the R-IA and
R-IC zoning districts. Following is how the proposed plat complies with lot size
requirements of the R-1A and R-1C districts:
Lot Area*

46,035 sq. ft.
43,876 sq. ft. -

As can be seen by~e table above, all of the proposed lots meet or exceed the
minimum requirements of the Shorewood Zoning Code. Despite this compliance,
some modification of lot widths is recommended. Exhibit F shows 'the required
setbacks for each lot. Despite its area and width, Lot 3 is left with a very limited
buildable width, due to the wetland buffer and setback requirement. Since Lots 1
and 2 are wider than what is required, it is recommended that the lot lines be shifted~.
over so as to increase the buildable width by_~pproximately 17 to 20 feet"", ,_
., The proposed subdivision results in one small outbuilding on Lot 7 becoming
nonconforming in terms of the' rear yard setback. This can be' remedied by moving
or removing the building in question, or by adjusting the lot line between Lot 6 and
Lot 7 so as to comply with the rear yard setback requirement. Lot 6 can not,
however, be reduced below 40,000 square feet in area.
e
I
I
The point at which Lots 5, 6, and 7 come together should be recoflfigured so as to'
eliminate the triangular portion of Lot 5. The rear lot line of Lot 7 can simply be
extended southwesterly to meetthe side lot line of Lot 5. In addition to c1eani,ng up
<,the property lines, it eliminates the tiny triangular "island" formed by the drainage
and utility easements.-- ,

B. Subdivision Code.
.
.
1.
The proposed street has a 75-foot right-of-way, due to topography and the
existence of a metropolitan sewer interceptor which is located along the
northwesterly edge of the property. This exceeds the minimum requirement
(50')prescribed by the Code. The 1000 foot long street is the maximum
length recommended cul-de-sac streets. The width of the proposed street
appears to be consistent with the Code. The applicant should be directed to
modify the angle at which the new street intersects with Country Club
Road, making it as close to 90 degrees as possible. Street design will be
addressed in greater detail in a separate report from the City Engineer.
It.shouldbe noted that the applicant was asked to extend the cul-de-sac
right-of-way so as to provide access to the property to the north. This -
property has potential to be subdivided, but does not have adequate frontage
on Echo Road. Although unusually shaped the proposed cul-de-sac
provides the required frontage for the adjoining property owner.
The applicant has shown drainage and utility easements, 10 feet wide along
all lot lines. An additional 20-foot easement has been provided for the outlet
from the NURP pond shown at the rear of Lot 5.
Lots and block are numbered per the Code. ,
PrelimInary grading arid drainage are shown on Exhibit C. This plan will
be. addressed by the City Engineer. Some concern has already been
expressed regarding the west end of the plat draining into two off-site
wetland areas., A~ part of the fmal plat review for this project, the applicant
will have to obtain approval by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District.
Detailed runoff calculations and pond size will be reviewed as part of the
. final plat.
2.
3.
4.
~,
The City Engineer has recommended that a class 5 driveway be provided for
access to the NURP pond. This driveway would be located between Lot 4
and Lot 5.-"
Park dedication fees will amount to $7000 for this project ($1000 per lot).
Credit hasbeengivenJor the lot with existing house on it.
7. Local sanitary sewer access charges (LSSAC) will amount to $7000 for this
project ($1000 per lot). Similar to park dedication credit has been, given for
the lot with existing house on it.
5..
6.
\,
8. Sanitary sewer is available to the property along its northwesterly boundary.
Since this is a metro line, approval for tb:e proposed connections will have
to be obtained from Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES).
9. City water is not immediately available to the site, and it is assumed that
private wells will be proposed.

Memorandum
Re: Mary Lake Woods Preliminary Plat
25 November 1997
C.
There is an existing well located near Mary Lake which was the subject of a
lawsuit back in 1975. It appears that the result of the lawsuit was that the
City is to maintain and operate the well, which pumps water into Mary
Lake, until such time as it can be determined that a 952 water elevation has
been restored: Staff is researching the status of that ,case: If it is found that
the City is no longer responsible for the expense of operating the well, it
raises the question of potential abandonment or future responsibility by
private parties. This situation does not adversely affect the preliminary plat, "
but needs to be resolved prior to fmal plat approval. The applicant also-
advises us that a number of test wells which were previously located on the
property are in the process of being abandoned.
Although Lot 7 is large enough to resubdivide, it is not necessary to require
a resubdivision sketch at this time. This portion of the property is
somewhat separated from the rest of the site by topography and the
proposed drainage pond. It also has direct access to Yellowstone Trail.
This lot could easily be divided into two lots, or three if a small cul-de-sac,
were extended into the property from Yellowstone Trail.
Wetland Protection. The subject property adjoins six wetland basins of various
sizes. The applicant's plans show the required 35-foot wetland buffers and
additional 15-foot building setbacks on the three basins which are located south of
the proposed road. On the westerly two basins north of the proposed road, the
applicant has shown 16.5-foot buffers, apparently consistent with Watershed
District requirements, but not with the City's requirements. No buffer or setback is
" shown on the northernmost wetland basin. The applicant's consultant has been
advised of this discrepancy." "
10.
.
D.
,
There are two areas in which the proposed road will encroach into wetland buffer
areas. The road cuts between two small wetland pockets immediately east of
Country Club Road. While encroachment into the buffer area, is unavoidable, it
appears that the work can be done without encroaching into the wetland itself.
Similarly, some encroachment will occur in the buffer for the wetland immediately
north of the proposed cul-de..:sac. Shorewood's'wetland regulations allowfor such
encroachment where it is unavoidable. It is not necessary to mitigate for the
disturbed buffer areas, however, wetland vegetation should be restored to the extent
possible.
.~ .~..
As part of the final plat a plan must be prepared showing the proposed location of
wetland buffer monUments.
Tree' Preservation. The applicant has provided an inventory of existing significant
trees on the property. Only trees located in areas where site alteration may occur
have been shown. It is expected that areas not inventoried will be fenced off from
construction activity. Without having a tree preservation plan to review, it seemS'.
apparent that the applicant will be faced with the maximum number of replacement
trees- eight per acre. Based upon approximately 14 acres of land, excluding
wetlands, 114 replacement trees may be required.

Re: Mary Lake Woods Preliminary Plat
25 November 1997
There appears to be one area in which additional trees could be saved. The NURP
pond is located in one of the more densely wooded areas of the site. It may be
possible to move the pond somewhat and reconfigure it so as to require less tree
removal. The applicant's engineer should work with the City Engineer to modify
the pond somewhat in order to preserve as many trees as possible. The fmal plat
should include a tree preservation and reforestation plan.
RECOMMENDA TION
Although several items need to be addressed as part of the final plat for this project, the
preliminary plat is considered to be consistent with Shorewood's Comprehensive Plan and
development regulations. .' It is recommended that the preliminary plat be approved subject
to the following:
1.
Shift the lot lines for Lots 1-3 so as to give addition31 buildable width to Lot
3. .
.
2. Move or remove the small outbuilding located in the northwest comer of Lot
7 to comply with the 50,..foot rear yard setback requirement. In the
alternative adjust the rear lot line of Lot 7 so as to be 50 feet from the
building. "
3 . Detailed stormwater runoff calculations should be submitted with the fmal
plat. Grading, drainage and erosion control plans should be subject to
review and approval by the City Engineer and the Minnehaha Creek
Watershed District.
4. Prior to release of a fmal plat the applicant must pay $7000 in park
dedication fees and $7oooin local sanitary sewer access fees.
5.
The appliCant must obtain approval from MCES for the proposed
connection to the interceptor sewer.
.
The City must resolve the issue of the Mary Lake well. If City involvement .
- in th~ operation or expense of the well will continue, an easement must be
provided over Lot 8. If the well is to be privately maintained, some
agreement must be made for its continued use and maintenance.
7. The applicant's fmal plans should include a landscape plan, prepared by a
landscape architect, showing tree protection and replacement, and ~'
restoration of the wetland buffer areas which will be disturbed by road
construction. Consideration should be given to reconfiguring the NURP
pond to save as many trees as possible.
6.
, 8. Final plans should include a class 5, driveway for access to the NtJRp pond.
,-
9. In addition to drainage and utility easements over the wetland areas, the
applicant must also provide conservation easements. Final plans should
include a plan showing where wetland buffer monuments will be placed.
Protective covenants should be required. advising future homeowners of the
City's wetland restrictions. .

Re: Mary lake Woods
Preliminary Plat Review
Dear L.any:
We have completed our review of the preliminary Pial: for the above-referenced project.
submitted by SchOeR & Madson. Inc., dated October, 1997 and have the following
comments:
Preliminary Plat
1) The alignment at the proposed street, Mary Lake Trail, should intersect
the east right-of-way line of Country Club Road at a right angle. The
proposed aflQOlTl8nt intersects Country Club Road at about a 6S degree
angle bearing bom north to east.
2) The radius of the northbound lane entering the cul-de-sac may be too
tight if the applicant proposes to construct a center planting island in
tho cul-de-sac.
3) The preliminary plat should include the NWL and HWL (for a 100 - year
storm runoff event) of each wetland contained within or in part by the
proposed pial: boundary.
4) The preliminary plat should include the low floor elevation for each lot.
set at an elevation not less than two feet above the HWL for a 1OQ-year
storm runoff event lElvel or the natural overflow for the corresponding
lowland for each lot (whichever level is higher), and four feet above the
groundwater elevation.
Preliminary Grading and Drainage Plan
1) The rock construction entJanCe should not be less than fifty feet in
length.
2) The proposec::llow point, catch basins and culvert located at about
station 0+70 should be reloc8led to abeut station 1+00 (+) so the first
10o-feet of Mary Lake Trall drains a~ from COuntry Club Road and
toward the catch basins. This W11lresult in an Increase in street grade
to the north east of this Iowpoint, however, the street grades should be

able to be designed in accordance with City requirements (0.5% to
6.0%).
3) The proposed grading of Lot 1, Block 1 may result in draining runaff
from the right-Qf-way across the nal1h west comer of the lot. A
drainage easement or redirection of runoff will be required. A similar
condition also exists for Lots 3, 4,6 and 8.
4) OSM aid not receive stonn water runoff calculations far this proposed
development.
The 1975 Comprehensive Stormwater Study indicates the extension of
a 36-inch storm sewer through this proposed developmQOt parallel to
the sanitary sewer aBgnment. This storm sewer was sized based on a
5-year storm runoff event and the pipe size will need to be increased to
hancl1e a ten-year event used in current runoff calculations. The City
may want to consider right-of-way and easement options for routing this
trunk stonn sewer through this area. We recommend the City wait until
an updated storm water stUdy be performed for this drainage sub-basin
and adjacsnt sub-basins before constructing the stonn sewer indicated
in the 1975 stUdy.
6) The planS do not incftcate the NWL or HWL for the two wettands
located at the intersection of Country Club Road and Mary Lake Trail.
AIIhough the 1975 Comprehensive Stormwater Study indicates these
wetlands drain to the west. the post-development HWL may overtop
Country Club Road.
5)
7) An vertical and horizontal CUlV8S proposed for Mary Lake Trail should
be in accordance with design criteria for a 30 mph design speed for
stopping sight distances.
S) The grading Be drainage plan propose to leave an existing draintile in
service with an apparent outlet to the NURP pond. The city may want
to inspect the soundness of this draintile and consider an overland
drainage route in lieu of the existing tile.
9)
The proposed plan does not indicate a permanent access to perfonn
maintenance operations on the NURP pond.
10}
The riprap for the NURP pond outlet structure should be channelized
and extended to Mary Lake to reduce potential erosion.
11) The NURP pond outlet structure/skimmer utirlzes a 4-inch orifICe
Joca1ed about 1.3-feet below the NWL This arnlCe may be subject to
frequent freezing and resulting in higher pond levels during snow melt
periods.
12) The drainage easement along the souU'lem portion of Lot 4 and the
NOU-26-1997 11: as
P.B4
northern portion of Lot 7 should be relocated to contain the existilg
draintile. The drainage easement between Lots 7 & 6 should also be
widened to the south to provide enough easement for a potential
overflow.
13) The existing culVert between Lots 6 and 8 should be in$pected and
replaced as part of this project if it is in poor condition.
14) The proposed pavement section may be inadequate as shown on the
plans. Pavement section design should be detennined after a soil
boring report has been submitted for raview. The SCS soils data
indicate poor soil conditions for street purposed near the Mary lake
Trail and Country Club Road Intersection.
15}
The overflow elevation of Mary Lake appears to be about elevation
959. the lots acttacent to Mary Lake should indicate low floor elevations
at least 2-feet above this elevation as woU as 4-feet above the
groundwater levels.
.
16)
We suspect a 12.jnch culvert exists crossing Country Club Road near
the intersection wiIh Maty Lake Trail. The 1ocation and condition of this
culvert should be verified to ensure posftive drainage of the wetland at
this intersection.
17) The plans submitted do not indicate a NURP pond for the wGSterly one-
third of the proposed street. Mary Lake Trail.
18) The NURP pond may only be designed for the drainage from the
proposed roadway. The pond should b8 sized for all draKtage from the
site that reaches this area. The City may want to consider a potential
regional pond for future use within this development for the sub-basins
draining through this area to Mary Lake.
Preliminary Utility Plan
1)
TIle Implementation Plan Report for water distribution system
improvements, prepared in 1996, indicates extension of a trunk
watermain along Country Club Road in 1999. This water extension
would provide City water to this development rather than the
constructIon of seven new wells.
.
2) I here appears to be an exilSliny w$lllocated Just north eEISt of 1ho
proposed cukiCHaC. It is currently unclear whether this is a monitoring
weft or a water supply weD for one of the adjacent parcels. TIle
purpose of this well should be detarmi1ed before final plat approval
3) The proposed sanitary sewer system indlCateS the constructIOn of an
inside drop section to existing manholes. We recommend 1he use of
an outside drop since an inside drop becomes an obstruction for
H:\97\lOO,Clll\CW>COII\1 12U7.1.A11

maintenance operations. However. the pUbrlC sanitary sewer could be
eliminated by eonstructing individual 4-inch services to each lot with
clean-outs placed at the right-of-way line fo.r each service. These
services could be core dnlled into the existing sanitary sewer and
connected with a water tight boot.
This preliminarY plat review has been performed from an engineering standpoint with
regard to grading. drainage, street and underground utility design issues. If you have
any questions regarding our review of this development plat, please do not hesitate to

RE: Traylor, Sondra - C.D.P. for Special Home Occupation Permit
FILE NO. 405 (97.31)
BACKGROUND
.
Dr. Sondra Traylor is the owner of the property at 23115 Summit A venue (see Site
Location map - Exhibit A, attached). Since May of 1996 she has provided chiropractic
services in her home pursuant to a limited home occupation permit. Dr. Traylor now
proposes to employ a part-time person who does not live on the premises to help her with
general office and reception duties. In order to do this Dr. Traylor has applied for a
conditional use permit, pursuant to Section 1201.03 Subd. 12 of the Shorewood Zoning
Code.
Dr. Traylor's property is zoned R-1C, Single-Family Residential and contains
approximately 47,148 square feet of area. Land use and zoning surrounding the subject
property is residential, including the area to the south which is located in Chanhassen.
Exhibit B contains the applicant's written request for a conditional use permit. Exhibit C is
her site plan and Exhibit D is a sketch of the floor plan of her home.
ANAL YSIS/RECOMMENDA TION
Section 1201.03 Subd. 12.d. sets forth 10 general provisions for home occupations and
four specific conditions relative to special home occupation permits. The applicant has
addressed these conditions in her request letter. With the exception of parking, her request
appears to be consistent with the requirements of the Code. Due to the substandard width
and existing grades on Summit Avenue, it is extremely important that all parking associated
with the home occupation occur on the property and not on the street.
It is worth noting that the applicant's home exists as a nonconforming structure. The house
is only 19+ feet from the right-of-way of Summit Avenue, while the R-1C zoning district
requires a front yard building setback of 35 feet. The required setback is shown on Exhibit

Memorandum
Re: Traylor C.U.P.
:3 November 1997
C. The Home Occupation section of the Code refers to the parking requirements found in
Section 1201.03 Subd. 5. This section states that "required parking" shall not be located
within the front yard setback area of the property. A minimum of three parking spaces are
required for the proposed use - one for Dr. Traylor, one for the proposed employee and
one for a patient (assuming no overlap in patients). Two of these spaces can be
accommodated within the existing garage, however, inadequate room exists for a third car
without it being in the required setback.
Although the applicant states that she parks inside of her garage, a letter from neighboring
residents (see Exhibit E) alleges Wat patients park in a paved area south of the existing
driveway. Our review of aerial photos indicates that this area appears to have existed prior.
to the applicant's ownership of the property, however, it does not comply with current
Code requirements. Despite the property having enough frontage for two driveways, the
paved area is approximately 35 feet wider than the maximum width (25 feet) for driveways.
There is also some concern about adding parking to the existing driveway (e.g. on the
north side of the garage) due to the proximity of the existing driveway to the street comer.
If the Planning Commission and Council feel the applicant's request has merit, it is
recommended that the following conditions be included in any approval:
1. . The applicant must provide one additional paved parking space on the north side of
tlle garage.
1. . The nonconforming paved area south of the existing driveway be removed and
restored to lawn area. Prior to issuance of a C.U.P. the applicant should be
required to provide a cash escrow or letter of credit and enter into an escrow
agreement guaranteeing that the paved area would be removed and restored no later
than 1 June 1998, and that the parking space referenced in 1. above be paved by the
same date. In the mean time the nonconforming paved area should be posted with
"no parking" signs.
The applicant and employee must park inside the garage during business hours.
Although difficult to do, this condition should be monitored over the next 12
months. It is anticipated that neighboring residents will report violations.
:3 . Any conditional use permit should be limited to annual or biannual review by the
Planning Commission. Violations of the conditional use permit will result in
revocation.

RE: Residential Conditional Use Permit
for Sondra Traylor's home office
.
Dear City of Shorewood Council Members:
In May 1996 I received a Limited Home Occupation permit from the City of Shorewood. My
home business meets all the General Provision Requirements for the Limited Home Occupation
Permit. In June 1996, I opened a part-time Chiropractic office in my home. It has been
wonderful! One of the best decisions I've ever made. In the fourteen months the office has been
operating in my home, I have done all the patient work and paper work myself. The time has
come to streamline my life a little more and take offmore stress. I would like to obtain a Special
Home Occupation, Conditional Use Permit which will allow me to hire a person to help me part-
time. The person will be assisting me with general office work and some telephone receiving.
The hours of the office are Monday through Thursday, 9:00 am to 12:30 pm and 2:30 pm to
5 :30 pm. Closed Fridays. The office is open 26 hours per week. The person would be working
any where from 10 to 26 hours per week. I anticipate an average of four mornings per week,
. I was advised to cover the General Provisions that are required that my office met to receive the
Limited Home Occupation Permit, which I received fourteen months ago.
a. There is no light glare, noise, odor or vibration.
b. No equipment creates electrical interference.
c. The business has not changed the outside of the premises.
d. All the internal features are as customary in a residence.
e. There is no exterior storage of equipment or materials.
f. All fire and building codes are met.
g. There are no exterior or interior displays or signs that are visible from outside the building.
r- . ,.' p
t:.XnIOlt :...,
~ 0DT T(" ~ -'. T~' _:: _-__
h. The business complies with the City Nuisance Ordinance.
1. The business does not operate between 9:00 pm and 7:00 am.
j. Parking is easily accommodated in the current drive way, in which three cars can park across,
and only two will be used at a time. (I park my car in the two car garage, so it will not be counted
in the driveway parking spaces.) This parking meets the 25' requirement from the curbline.
There is also a nice walkway to the front door.
. Enclosed please find the following documents:
_ List of property owners within 500' of my property line.
- Dimension Plan of Lot and Area, including set-backs.
- Location of building on the lot.
- Floor Plan with Office area marked.
_ Information on parking for patient and the employee.
.
-Proof of Ownership: The abstract is on file with FirstSecurity Title, and I have provided
a copy of their notice that it is on file with them, as well as refinancing papers from February
1993. Also enclosed is a copy of the satisfaction of mortgage from Hennepin County recorder's
office, for the second mortgage paid off in April 1997. Please let me know if you need further
verification of ownership.
Please feel free to call me if you have any questions, I will be happy to help.
I want to thank you in advance for considering and hopefully approving my request for the
Special Home Occupation Conditional Use Permit. Thank you.
Sincerely,

RE; Request for Conditional Use Permit for a Special Home Occupation Permit for
~ondra Traylor 23115 Summit Avenue
Dear Mr. Nielsen:
. We are property owners living on Hwnmingbird Road. Summit Avenue turns into Hummingbird
Road at the Hennepin ICarver County line. Most of us live within 500 feet of Sondra Traylor's
property line. We received notice of the Public Hearing for a Conditional Use Permit for a
Special Home Occupation Permit for Sondra Traylor and wish to submit our written comments
for review at the Public Hearing.
We are opposed to the approval of the Conditional Use pennit as the street on which we all live
is not designed to handle the traffic to the Traylor home should her business increase as a result
of having an additional employee. This is a residential not a commercial street and we feel that
if her business necessitates having an additional employee, she should move to a commercial
location. Summit AvenueIHummingbird Road is only 15 feet wide and cannot accommodate
two cars meeting on the road. In addition, there are several young children living on
Hummingbird Road who frequently ride their bikes on the street.
.
Those clients currently seeing Ms. Traylor at her home do not park in her driveway but park in
the Paved Turn Around Area. (See attached illustration) This situation violates the parking
provisions in the Limited Home Occupation permit. In addition, because of the angle of her
driveway, there would not be room to park three cars across and still comply with the
requirements that "No vehicle shall be parked closer than twenty five feet (25') from the curb line
or edge of the paved street surface. "
On one occasion, a client afMs. Traylors was unfamiliar with the location of her residence. She
was speeding and passed Ms. Traylor's home. This client used the Franzen residence driveway
(6260 Hummingbird Road) to turnaround. . The client backed into and knocked over their
mailbox. Mrs. Franzen witnessed the incident. The client drove to Ms. Traylor's home and when
confronted by Mrs. Franzen, she offered no apology and initially denied what had happened.
While this was an isolated incident, it was due to a client from Ms. Traylor's home business.
In summary, our primary opposition to this request is that Summit A venueIHummingbird Road

SHOREWOOD LIQUOR IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
June, 1997
On April 25, 1997 the Minnesota Municipal Beverage Association Executive Director Paul
Kaspszak submitted a written report following their analysis of Shorewood's liquor
operations. The report listed many suggestions for improvements in our liquor operations
but concluded that the profitability of the facilities can be increased.
.
In early May, the Shorewood Liquor Committee met with the Liquor Store Manager,
Finance Director and City Administrator to thoroughly review the report. Following that
2.5 hour meeting, the Committee concluded that every effort should be made to improve
the liquor operations and make it profitable again. This summary report was requested at
that meeting.
Goal:
It the goal of the Shore wood Liquor Improvement Program to transform Shorewood liquor
operations into a winning team with excellent and improving service to customers, with
100% control over sales to minors, and with improving financial performance.
Principles:
The team of Shorewood liquor employees will develop their own principles under which to
function, however, the following areas are deemed core principles under which the
operation should function:
.
~ Total integrity, professionalism, friendliness
~ Courtesy and responsiveness to customers
~ Continuously strive to improve service to customers
~ Tolerate no mistakes in sales to minors
~ Hire good people, train them well, and empower them to reach goals and
provide excellent service
Page 1 of 3
~8
~~ ~ ,-
Personnel Principles:
The following values are basic for all City functions professional development; and respect
for City employees who with fair treatment, proper training, and willingness to let them
excel, will take pride in association with the City and serve the people well.
The following core principles are to be followed in employee relations:
~ Develop and live a shared vision of success
~ Everyone on the team needs to know where they stand, always
~ Listen/and communicate affIrmations and concerns
~ Train and retrain
Because all employees need to know where they stand and what they need to do to
improve, a performance improvement plan will be done by the employee and the manager.
This will include personal goals and training needs.
.
A personnel policy handbook will be developed so that personnel policies are clear and
understandable.
SpecifIc and attainable, yet challenging, goals should be constantly set by the team.
Three Keys:
The three keys in realizing success are: communication, shared decision making, and
coordination.
.
The manager should attempt to meet with the Assistant Managers on a weekly basis. A
typical agenda of these meetings would be:
~ Purchasing
~ Scheduling
~ Marketing - Creative ideas
~ Work vacation schedules
~ Staffreview
~ Customer comments and concerns
Page 2 of 3
=> Training and staff development opportunities
=> Other items
Assistant Managers will be empowered to run the stores and make the decisions necessary
to do so. The weekly team meetings will be very important in coordination of buying and
marketing opportunities. What's good for the team may not always seem the best for the
individual store yet constant work at communication and teamwork will benefit the whole
operation.
Overhead/Lease:
'.
One of the major financial problems of the operations is related to the expensive lease at the
Waterford store location. A team of the Liquor Committee will be responsible for
addressing this problem.
The Bottom Line
There needs to be a sense of urgency among the Liquor Committee and the Liquor
Operations Team. Because the liquor operations have not been profitable for two years, a
public hearing is required by State Statute before the end of the year. Simply put, if our
Shorewood Liquor Improvement Program does not show significant improvements over
the next six months, the operations likely will be closed down. The good news is the
Liquor Committee is convinced that if we accept this as a positive challenge and develop
and work on a plan as a team, we can transform Shorewood Liquor into a successful
. operation once again.

NOTES: 1. Step 5 is the normal salary/wage cap (TOP). It is based on averages for similar
positions in cities with similar populations, number of employees, location and job descriptions.
2. Normally, an employee would be hired at Step 1 - 80% of the TOP
3. After probation (6 months), an employee would go to Step 2 - 85% of the TOP.
4. After 1 year, an employee would go to Step 3 - 90% of the TOP.
5. After 2 years, an employee would go to Step 4 - 95% of the TOP.
6. After 3 years, an employee would go to Step 5 - 100% of the TOP.
This plan, like the proposed Union contract, would allow us to hire a person at Step 2 if the
person is highly qualified and/or has significant experience and we need to offer a higher wage to
attract them. It should also allow us to offer up to Step 4 after probation for the same reasons.
Employees may move more slowly through the range if not meeting expectations, and the City
should be able to exceed Step 5 for exceptional performance.
