HOQ~str_ (612) 476-:1'767 EXHIBIT "A CONSERVATION EASEMENT AREA FOR; WATTEN PONDS -*' [Imert Easement Areas here - To be provided by Surveyor] P.04 P.OEi December 4, 1996 The Eureka Neighborhood Association has found a number of disturbing inconsistencies regarding the City of Shorewood's approval of the Watten Ponds PUD. We will be mounting a legal challenge to that Oct. 14 approval based on new information which counters Attorney Keane's claim that zoning is merely an implementation device and subservient to the Comprehensive Plan. The Council's decision to approve this subdivision pivoted on Keane's apparently erroneous fmding. Our investigation has revealed that State Statute, and testimony by Shorewood Planning Department staff, contradicts Keane's statement as reported on Page 7 of the City Council minutes trom October 14, 1996. State Code 462.357 Subd. 2, reads, "If the comprehensive municipal plan is in conflict with the zoning ordinance. the zoning ordinance supersedes the plan". This sharply conflicts with the City's position that zoning is subordinate to the Compo Plan and its associated PUD. This State Statute clearly expresses that zoning takes precedent over a Comprehensive Plan if a conflict arises between the two. Simply speaking, this then eliminates the legal foundation used to justifY the small lots of theW atten Ponds project. To add even more weight to our position, on Oct. 21 during the Johnson case hearing, Mr. Nielson apparently testified under oath that zoning does indeed supersede the Comprehensive Plan. The record indicates that both the Planning Commission and City Council used the Comprehensive Plan and its recommendation for a PUD (LU-28 #6) as justification for the Planned Unit Development at Watten Ponds and to rationalize the associated small lots. Specifically, it is our legal contention, that the small lot sizes associated with this project undermines city zoning statutes thereby creating a direct conflict with the Comprehensive Plan. Because the Watten Ponds PUD was specifically recommended in the Comprehensive Plan and was the logical basis for the small lots it too is superseded by the zoning regulations. Clearly, zoning in this case takes precedent over both the Comprehensive Plan and its associated PUD. The logical conclusion is that lot sizes below the zoned minimum of 40,000 square feet are illegal for this subdivision. We believe that this new information demands that tonights consideration of the development agreement be delayed until this matter can be sorted through. Moreover, by tabling this project you will eliminate unnecessary legal expense for the City, its taxpayers, and the Neighborhood Association.

(612) 474-3236 Executive Summary Shorewood City Council Meeting Wednesday, December 4, 1996 The Truth in Taxation Public Hearing scheduled for 7:45 p.m. is technically a separate meeting so the Council should recess the regular meeting at 7 :45 p.m. to to the hearing. Once the hearing is completed, reconvene the regular meeting. It should be noticed at the beginning of the 7:30 p.m. meeting that following the regular meeting the Council will convene in Executive Session to discuss pending litigation. Minutes for the most recent City Council meeting are not completed for this packet and therefore will be placed on the December 16 meeting agenda. Agenda Item 2A: One of the goals for 1996 was to update job descriptions. Those needing updates are enclosed in the packet for your review and approval. Agenda Item 2B: The Council made the policy decision to refund a trunk charge for a parcel that soon became property of an adjacent neighbor on Eureka Road. This resolution clearly lays out what funds will be refunded for water, sewer and park fees and to whom. The resolution once executed will be sent to the property owners and inserted in the property files. This should be considered a cleanup resolution. Agenda Item 2C: This is acceptance of the fianl improvments of Waterford Fourth Addition. The developer has completed all of the improvements and is ready for final acceptance. Agenda Item 4A: Abingdon Dahlstrom LLP has submitted final plans for the Watten Ponds P.D.D. Any approval must be contingent upon the developer entering into a development agreement with the City. The agreement will be patterened after the Marsh Pointe development agreement which was approved at the 25 November Council meeting. Since we are adding language regarding additional tree protection, custom grading of lots and building permit performance escrows, the development agreement will not be distributed until Monday. . If you have any questions relative to this item you can contact the Planning Director at home on Friday. Agenda Item 4B: Carl Zinn has requested a 90 day extension for f1ling the McCary Addition final plat. If this is approved they will not have to start the platting process over. Any approval should stipulate that an up-dated title opinion will be required prior to release of the plat and that the plat will be subject to whatever fees (i.e. park dedication, local sanitary sewer charges, etc.) are in effect at the time they request release of the plat. They may also have to change the mylars reflecting the change in Mayors. The applicant's letter will be distributed on Monday.

TO: Mayor and City Council Jim Hurm, City Administrator Larry Brown, Director of Public Works ~ November 27, 1996 FROM: . DATE: RE: Petition for Public Improvement Water's Edge PUD The developer for the Water's EdgePUD has petitioned the City to prepare a feasibility report for street, sanitary sewer, storm sewer and watermain improvements for the subject development (refer to attachment 1). Usually, the City can tack small improvements such as this on to other projects for financing purposes. The City has slated several improvements for the 1997 Capital Improvement Program, however, it is difficult to insure that these projects will proceed in the 1997 period. . Under these circumstances, the City can proceed with the preparation of the feasibility study at the sole risk of the developer. If the City does not complete the improvements scheduled for 1997 the developer will be stuck in continuing with preparation of construction plans on his own. I will deliver a resolution at the meeting for your consideration.

This report analyzed the hydraulics for the Glen Road area and concurred with the Watershed District's recommendations that three stormwater ponds should be constructed within the southeast quadrant of County Road 19 and Glen Road to increase rate control and minimiz.e flooding impacts downstream. In August of 1990, OSM Associates, Inc. prepared a formal feasibility study which included the recommendations from the Watershed District in addition to identifying a special taxing districts for the improvements. Since the preparation of that report there have been three major items that have changed which necessitate the updating of the feasibility report. The first item is that some of the hydrologic characteristics for the area have changed, or are still in the process of changing. Specifically, recent construction of the Gideons Woods Subd.ivi$ioninvolved the construction of a stormwater retention basin in the northwest quadrant of the Glen Road-County Road 19 intersection. The original approval for this subdivision included the construction of a 12 inch storm sewer from this stormwater basin to the ditch for the Light Rail Transit (LRT) trail. This pipe would be located into the westerly ditch of County Road 19, and would extend north to the south ditch of the LRT trai l. A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore Fro 1" , Glen Road Drainage Project November 27, 1996 Page 2 of3 After the plans and specifications for Gideons Woods Subdivision had been approved, it was determined that the installation of the storm sewer line along CR 19 would have severe impacts to trees. Therefore, the engineer of record for the project suggested a storm sewer outlet be constructed from the stormwater basin, across Glen Road, to a newly constructed storm sewer located in the southwest quadrant of the Glen Road - County Road 19 intersection. Although this looked good on paper, survey information conducted by the City of Shorewood indicated that the existing storm sewer is too high to be of use to the Gideons Woods development. The developer's engineer is in the process of designing a stormwater lift station which would be owned and maintained by the homeowner's association for Gideons Woods for the outlet to their pond. As part of the updating of this report, alternatives which investigate a design which would eliminate the. need for the stormwater lift station should be considered. The second item which has changed is the design criteria for the ponds. As the City Council is aware, the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District has adopted the National Urban Runoff Program (NURP) criteria which typically involves up-scaling of the ponds from what has been investigated before. The third item which has changed are the City's funding options for these regional ponds. The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District has adopted what is known as "Rule B" into their management documents (refer to attachment 2). Rule B requires the construction of a stormwater detention facility meeting NURP criteria anytime there is a major redevelopment for an area or a roadway. Therefore, if the City of Shorewood proposed to reconstruct a roadway, a NURP basin will have to be included as part of the plans to mitigate stormwater runoff. Minnehaha Creek Watershed District has also implemented another plan which allows Cities to utilize a . concept analogous to the "wetland banking" programs for stormwater management. This program would allow the City of Shorewood to continue with roadway reconstruction projects, as long as there is an agreement between the City of Shorewood and the Watershed District to construct certain targeted regional stormwater management basins. The construction of these stormwater basins could be credited against these ponds to offset the impacts of a roadway reconstruction project, such as the Strawberry Lane Reconstruction Project. The Watershed District has been very eager to get the Glen Road Stormwater project into motion as these ponds help reduce impacts downstream. In addition, the District has stated that they have funds available to help contribute in the planning and construction of such facilities. Since this is a new program with the District, the amount of funding available is not cast in stone. Representatives of the District have been very eager to begin discussions regarding potential design parameters and funding participation from the District. Specifics for each municipality entering into such an agreement will vary from city to city. . . .". Glen Road Drainage Project November 27, 1996 Page 3 of3 Those Council Members who previously participated in the last update to this report may recall that a special stormwater taxing district or fee area over the tributary area to the ponds was proposed as part of the project (refer to attachment 3). As originally proposed, 70 percent of the project costs would be paid for by the City of Shore wood, with 30 percent being paid by the taxing district. As part of the update to the feasibility report, staff would seek out the amount of participation that would be available by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District. This revenue would be applied to reduce the amount to be collected by the taxing district. It is also recommended that the taxing district be modified to include the Gideons Woods Subdivision if the proposed ponds can be designed to eliminate the. need for a stormwater lift station. F or this update of the feasibility report, staff is requesting authorization for the Mayor and City Administrator to enter into an agreement with Orr Schelen and Mayeron, Associates, Inc. to aid in the hydraulic analysis, update portions of the report, and prepare graphics for a public information meeting. This contract would be based on a time and material basis not to exceed $5,000. A resolution is attached for your consideration. . I, , ! I I Ili,,/ , I ! 'i Ii ~- ~ '.:' .;, ~ . ~...

POLICY. It is the policy of the Board of Managers to: (a) Require stormwater facilities to be constructed on individual sites where practicable and effective. (b) Manage stormwater and snowmelt runoff on a regional or subwatershed basis and promote natural infiltration of runoff throughout the District to: 1) provide effective water quality treatment and where possible provide such treatment prior to discharge to surface waterbodies and wetlands; and . 2) so that future peak rates of runoff into major surface water bodies are less than or equal to existing rates; (c) Require preparation and implementation of erosion control plans for construction and land development activities. 2. REGULATION. Except as provided in paragraph 5, prior to commencing construction, a developer of land for residential, commercial, industrial, institutional, or public roadway uses shall submit a stormwater management plan and an erosion control plan to the District in conformity with the requirements of this rule and secure a permit from the District approving the stormwater management plan and the erosion control plan. A stormwater management plan and an erosion control plan are required for new development, redevelopment or additions to an existing site. The . managers will review a stormwater management plan and the erosion control plan only after the applicant demonstrates that the project has received preliminary approval from the municipality indicating compliance with existing municipal plans. 3. DECISION CRITERIA FOR STORMW ATER MANAGEMENT PLANS. Stormwater management plans shall comply with the following criteria: ( a) The rate of stormwater runoff from the site shall not increase as a result of the proposed development. Developed peak rates of runoff shall be controlled such that the existing peak rates are not exceeded. This criteria shall be analyzed and met for runoff producing events of critical duration with return frequencies of 1, 10 and 100 years in the subwatershed in which the site is located. (b) Natural existing low areas will be used for detention of runoff to comply with rate control criteria. Reservoir routing procedures and critical duration runoff events shall be used for design of detention areas and outlets. MCWD RULE REV 6/13/96 7 . . (c) Wet detention basins shall be required on-site and designed in accordance with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) design recommendations published in sections 4.1-4 through 4.1-5 ("Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas 1991"), and its future revisions. These design criteria were developed based upon the results of the Nationwide Urban Runoff Program (NURP)(USEPA, 1983). Total site area and any contributing off-site drainage area shall be used to calculate permanent pool volume. Structural outlets shall remove floatables from ponded runoff for a 1 year event. (d) If a development or redevelopment site is less than 40 acres and the Board of Managers determines that the wet detention and/or stormwater storage requirements would be better addressed on a regional basis, the applicant may instead contribute to a dedicated District water quality/storm water storage fund in lieu of providing the necessary facilities on-site. The fund will be used in planning, constructing, and maintaining regional detention basins/wetlands. Contribution to the above fund will only be allowed if an agreement for a regional facility is in place with the affected municipalities, if there is an existing or planned District regional stormwater facility within the same subwatershed, or if the Board of Managers determines that another facility in a different subwatershed is of a higher water quality priority and would better serve the public health and welfare and the purpose of the watershed law. The District will utilize funds collected within the same subwatershed, provided that the Board of Managers may allocate contributions to the dedicated fund for a different subwatershed if the Board determines that a regional stormwater facility within the same subwatershed is not feasible, or that a facility in a different subwatershed is of a higher water quality priority and would better serve the public health and welfare and the purpose of the watershed law. The contribution will be equal to the cost of the land, basin construction and basin maintenance. Land value will be based on the tax assessed value and basin costs of$20,000 per acre foot of required pond volume. At the discretion of the District, the stormwater wet detention and storage requirements for a given site may be split between on-site facilities and contributions to the District water quality/stormwater storage fund. Site specific Best Management Practices (BMP's) will be required on all sites, regardless of contribution to the water quality/stormwaterstorage fund. Contributions to the District water quality/stormwater storage fund for additions to existing sites are based on the area of the new addition and not the total site area. Contributions to the above fund for new development or redevelopment are based on the total site area. If a site drains to an existing or planned District regional stormwater facility, the applicant is required to contribute to the water quality/stormwater storage fund as stated above. (e) Waterborne sediments shall be prevented from entering existing drainageways to prevent sediment transport off the site during and after construction. (f) The proposed project shall not adversely affect water levels off the site during or after construction. (g) Runoff draining onto the site must be accommodated in the analyses and design of new stormwater management facilities. MCWD RULE REV 6/13/96 8 (h) The volume of site runoff may not increase due to the project when the receiving area of said runoff is landlocked, and not capable of handling the increased volume of runoff. In addition, the applicant shall either own or have proper rights over the landlocked property to handle water from the development. (i) All stormwater rate control facilities shall be located above the projected 1 DO-year flood elevation for the site and within drainage, utility and/or flowage easements to provide access and to prevent future alteration or encroachment. G) Stormwater Management Plans under this Rule shall be in conformance with approved Municipal Stormwater Management Plans. (k) The outfall structures within wetlands and public waters and wetlands shall incorporate a stilling-basin, surge-basin, energy dissipater, placement of ungrouted natural rock rip rap . or other devices to minimize disturbance and erosion of natural shoreline and bed resulting from peak discharges. (1) All new residential, commercial, industrial and institutional structures shall be constructed such that all door and window openings are a minimum of two feet above the 100 year high water elevation of nearby surface waterbodies, wetlands and stormwater basins. 4. DECISION CRITERIA FOR EROSION CONTROL PLANS. Erosion Control Plans shall comply with the following criteria: (a) An Erosion Control Plan prepared by a qualified individual, shall show proposed methods of retaining waterborne sediments on-site during the period of construction and shall show how the site will be restored, covered, or revegetated after construction. . (b) The erosion control plan shall be consistent with specifications of the MPCA manual "Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas" (revised July 1991) and its future revisions. (c) Silt fences shall be removed after all disturbed areas have been fully stabilized. (d) Sites with high erosion potential characterized by steep slopes or erodible soils may require a cash deposit to ensure performance and any necessary remedial action. A performance bond or other surety in a form satisfactory to the District is required for all construction activity, including clearing, grading, and excavation, that results in the disturbance of ten or more acres of land. MCWD RULE REV 6/13/96 9 . . 5. REQUIRED EXHIBITS. The following exhibits shall accompany the permit application. One set - full size; one set - reduced to maximum size of 11" x 17".

This maintenance agreement shall specify the methods, schedule and responsible parties for maintenance and must include at a minimwn, the elements contained in the District's Maintenance Agreement Form. A Maintenance Agreement Form will be provided to the applicant for use by the applicant as a maintenance agreement or as guidance if the applicant desires to draft a separate maintenance agreement. The maintenance agreement must be recorded with the county within 10 days of the issuance date of the permit. (d) Soil boring results if available. 6. EXCEPTIONS. (a) If the District has approved a municipal stormwater management plan for a municipality, or for a sub watershed within a municipality, the requirements in paragraph 3 of this rule . which are not met by the municipal plan shall be deemed satisfied upon showing of compliance by an individual developer with the municipal plan. (b) The requirement of paragraph 3(a) above shall not apply to a project where the total site area is less than one-half acre. ( c) Residential developments where the total site area is less than two acres and contains four or fewer living units, and where the total off-site area contributing runoff to the site improvements in less than one acre, do not require a permit under this rule. Approved. erosion control measures must be properly installed, however, and maintained throughout the construction process and until all disturbed areas are fully stabilized. .

SHOREWOOD, MINNESOTA 55331.8927 · (612) 474.3236 MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council Jim Hurm, City Administrator Iffi-- FROM: Larry Brown, Director of Public Works . DATE: November 27, 1996 RE: Right of Way Acquisition by MN/DOT of City Owned Land State Trunk Highway 7 and Christmas Lake Road Intersection Reconstruction Project The Minnesota Department of Transpiration (MN/Do T) is in the process of obtaining right of way and continuing to prepare plans, specifications and construction estimates for the reconstruction of the intersection of State Trunk Highway 7 and Christmas Lake Road. . As part of the right of way acquisition process, MN/DoT has identified two parcels ofland which the City of Shorewood owns that will be impacted by the project. The City received these parcels of property from Hennepin County under the stipulation in the deed that the parcels be used for right of way purposes only. These parcels are located at the southwest quadrant of the intersection of State Trunk Highway 7 and Christmas lake Road. For discussion purposes, the State has denoted the west parcel as parcel 216 and the east parcel 216B (refer to attachment 1). Characteristics of these parcels are flat low lying areas, much of which is wetland and mature vegetative growth. Total contour relief for both parcels is approximately 8 feet. Parcel 216 MN/DoT is seeking to gain access control for this parcel The appraiser for M/DoT is suggesting that the compensation for loss of access to TH 7 would be $100.00. It is very typical that the compensation for access control is usually very minimal unless this the parcel is developed as a commercial facility that would be damaged by loss of access. Due to the proximity of Christmas Lake Road intersection, it is very unlikely that access would be permitted under any circumstances. Therefore the $100.00, minimal as it is, appears to be appropriate. #7 A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore .... ." Right of Way Acquisition by :MNlDo T November 27, 1996 Page 2 of2 Parcel 216B :MNIDOT is seeking to obtain n,312 square feet of permanent right of way and 3,072 square feet as temporary easement in addition to obtaining access control as shown in Exhibit 2. The appraiser for MNlDoT has proposed compensation for the temporary easement and access control in the amount of $16,600. The proposed construction easement expires December 1, 1998. The amount of compensation for the permanent right of way is $46,000. This brings the total compensation for this parcel to $62,600. In review of the proposal with the City Assessor, the price for land acquisition can vary widely. An average price would be approximately $4.00 per square foot. Based upon the area proposed for permanent easement, this would equate to $45,248.00. Therefore, the $46,000 offer seems appropriate. . Staff is recommending approval of the proposal offered by :MNlDoT. Signatures from Hennepin County will also be required before the transfer can occur as the deed for these parcels were obtained for right of way purposes only. Therefore, the County's signature is also required to insure the property is being used as intended. A resolution is attached for your consideration. . ! :: i .. /' " . . . ~ ~==: . N;";'" ..
