RE: SENIOR HOUSING
SHOREWOOD COUNen..,
BEING UNABLE TO ATTEND TONIGHT'S MEETING, I WANTED TO SEND SOME
mODGmS ABOUT THE ISSUES. AGREE OR DISAGREE, I APPRECIATE IT IS A DlFFICULT
DECISION YOU MUST MAKE. MY BIGGEST FEAR IS THAT TInS CITY ACTS, NOT ON
FACTS, BUT ON WISHES. I THINK SUPPORTERS OF TIllS IDEA HAVE VERY LITTLE IN THE
WAY OF FACI'S TO JUSTIFY SUCH A DRAMATIC INTRUSION lNTO A RESIDENTIAL
NEIGHBORHOOD. MANY OF US IN THE SHOREWOOD ONE GROUP HOPE TO WORK WITH
THE CITY IN THE FUTURE TO COME-UP WITH A REAL SOLUTION- ONE THAT TAKES
EVERYONE'S INTERESTS INTO ACCOUNT. IN THE MEANTIME.....
NEED- I WOULD STRONGLY DEBATE THE IDEA THAT THERE IS A NEED FOR SENIOR
HOUSING IN SHOREWOOD. WHAT WE HAVE IS A WANT. THIS WANT WAS BEEN BlRTHED
AND CONTlNUES TO BE NOURISHED BY THE MET COUNCIL, SENIOR ACTMSTS AND
SOME OF YOU IN OUR CITY GOVERNMENT. HOW IN THE WORLD DOES HAND RAISING
BY 38 SENIORS AT THE SENIOR CENTER CONSTITUTE NEED? I WOULD GUESS THE
SENIOR POPULATION IN SHOREWOOD PUSHES 2000 PEOPLE. SO, MAYBE 1 OUT OF 52
(2%) SENIORS EXPRESSED A NEED. IF THERE WERE TRULY A NEED FOR SENIOR
HOUSING, THE MARKET WOULD BE BUILDING IT LEFT AND RIGIn'. WHAT IS REALLY
NEEDED IS FOR AIL OF YOU TO TRY TO DISTINGUISH NEEDS FROM WANTS FROM
DEMAND.
PROTOCOL- TIllS ISSUE CONTINUES TO BE HANDLED POORLY BY MANY IN OUR CITY
GOVERNMENT. THOSE WITH AN AGENDA THAT REQUIRES SENIOR HOUSING- NO
MATfER THE COST- HAVE SHOWN BLATANT FAVORITISM TOWARDS SUPPORTERS. IT IS
EVIDENT IN EVERYTIDNG FROM THE ANECDOTAL SURVEYS TO THE SENIORS ONLY
SESSIONS TO THE IAST COUNCIL MEETING. I AM VERY UNCOMFORTABLE WITH
SUPPOSEDLY EVEN HANDED REPRESENTATIVES LEADING THE CHARGE FOR ONE
GROUP OVER ANOTHER. THE NOTION THAT WE SHOULD BUILD SENIOR HOUSING
BECAUSE IT CLOSES THE "CIRCLE OF LIFE" OR BECAUSE SOMEONE WISHES "THElR
MOTHER COULD LIVE THERE" IS NONSENSICAL AND SELFISH IN THAT ORDER
ALL THE ARGUMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE. AS ONE OFTEN FINDS, IT COMES DOWN TO
THE LOGICAL VERSUS THE EMOTIONAL. THIS DEVELOPMENT WILL NOT HELP LOCAL
SENIORS AND WILL HURT LOCAL RESIDENTS. EVERYONE WANTS TO FEEL GOOD
ABOUT THEMSELVES. GOD KNOWS IT IS EASlER TO SAY YES THAN TO SAY NO. SO, IF
IT FEELS BETTER, SAY YES TO PRESERVING SHOREWOOD'S NEIGHBORHOODS AND
Oct 13 97 03:21p
PFEIFFER USA
6123619407
p.2
LIFESTYLES AND NO TO mGH DENSITY, TRAFFIC CLOGGING, MET COUNCIL DRIVEN
HOUSlNG PROJECTS.
IT IS TIME TO VOTE TIllS DOWN AND SAVE THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE DEVELOPER
ADDmONAL GRIEF AND EXPENSE. MORE IMPORTANTLY. IT IS TIME- ONCE AND FOR
ALL- TO AGREE THAT SHOREWOOD IS NOT THE PLACE FOR THE MET COUNCIL'S
SOCIAL IMPERATIVES. OTHERWISE, TIllS BATTLE IS GOING TO REPEATED AGAIN AND
AGAIN .IN THE FtITURE. MANY OF US HAVE HAD ABOUT AS MUCH OF TIllS AS WE CAN
HANDLE.
IF THIS CITY WANTS TO SUPPORT SENIOR HOUSING AND PROTECf IT'S
NEIGHBORHOODS, THEN THERE MUST BE A NEW CREATIVE APPROACH TIllS WlLL
REQUIRE, ABOVE ALL, THAT ONLY PROJECTS ADHERING TO ZONING lAWS AND
NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBILTIY BE CONSIDERED. IF A PROJECT FAILS TO MEET TIllS
SIMPLE MINIMUM LEVEL OF APPROPRIATENESS, IT MUST BE REJECTED. THANK YOu.

Mr. Mayor and City Council members.
RE: "Senior Housing", Eureka Road Project
Respectfully, ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MINDS!! We elected you nice folks
under the assumption you would do what is good for the city. I expect
you to follow that mandate. I strongly, STRONGLY urge you to take a
second look at what you are considering and put your positions of city
government aside and think clearly, realistically, and responsibly.
Drop this proposal for the senior housing project. Call it what you
want but we all know what it is, and where it is going.
It's not too late to do the right thing, and you know in your hearts
what that is. Drop it now. What is good for the seniors is a seperate
issue. This is an issue about high density housing and I do not believe
for a minute that anyone cares a damn about seniors as it relates to
this project. Money is the issue.
So let's see what you are made of. Come on, people, show some backbone.
You know the answer should be no, so, say NO! You can do it. You must
do it.
You'll feel better about it, knowing you made the right choice. Drop
this project, please?

RE:
Bituminous Overlays 1997
Attachment 1 is the bid tabulation for the bid opening conducted on October 10, 1997 at 10:00 am,
for the bituminous overlay for various streets within the City of Shorewood.
The sole planholder, Midwest Asphalt Corporation, submitted a bid for the amount of $105,602.50.
The estimate for construction was $80,000. Representatives from Midwest Asphalt confirmed
previous discussions stating that the 1997 year has been a boom year for the asphalt companies. If
this had been a normal year, the bids would have come in at or near $80,000.
It is therefore recommended that the bid be rejected, and that the plans be re bid in March of 1998.
If the City Council agrees to reject the- bid, notices will be sent to residents along the roadways
scheduled for overlaysstating that this project will be re-bid in 1998.
A resolution is attached for your consideration.

Dear Mr. Mayor:
.In regards to this evenings council meeting, 1 would like you to know that 1 voted for
you because of your strong sense ofresponsibility to preserve Shorewood.
A high density townhouse development does not belong in the middle of a single family
neighborhood. The size of what has been proposed is far too large for this area.
1 hope that when it comes time for you to vote on this matter, that you remember what
was said, and promised, during your campaign. I believed in you and what you stood for.
Please don't let me down.
Sincerely,
~au;~ 0;14-

Subject: High-Density Housing Plan
Date: Fri, 3 Oct 1997 13:57: 14 -0500
From: Steve.Hertzenberg@telex.com
To: cityhall@dorthy.state.net
FILE COpy
Attached is a copy of a letter to the editor I sent to the Sun Sailor
regarding the proposed high-density housing project. It addresses the need
to deal with the facts surrounding this proposal -- not the conjecture,
illusion, and rhetoric that have clouded the issue so far. I urge you to
take it to heart. Otherwise, we will not arrive at a decision that is in
the best interests of the citizens of Shorewood. Instead, we will have a
disappointed community that made an emotional decision based on unrealistic
expectations. Clearly, this in not in anyone's best interests. If you
have any questions, please feel free to call me. (Daytime: 887-7462.
Evenings: 470-1685.)
The letter reads:
Council Must Focus On Truth in High-Density Housing Issue
To the editor:
The time has come for Shorewood?s City Council to focus on the real issue
involving the proposed 80 unit housing project. Too many misconceptions
exist surrounding this plan right now. Some believe the plan will result
in tax relief for current residents while others see those opposing the
plan as being anti-senior citizen. In truth, the issue is not about
phantom tax relief or Shorewood?s seniors at all. The issue is whether or
not we, as a community, want to add this high-density housing project, and
all that TRULY comes with it, to our community. Period.
Surely, the developer and proponents love seeing the issue continually
framed this way: as a vote for or against tax relief and aid to our senior
citizens. After all, who opposes tax relief? And no one is -- or wants to
appear as if they -- are "out to get" our parents and grandparents. When
viewed in this simplistic manner, how can the plan fail? The tragedy,
however, is that approval will be based on emotional rhetoric, illusory
benefits, and a touch of duplicity -- all dreadful reasons to vote for or
against anything.
Thus, the Shorewood City Council must strip away the deceptive posturing
and focus on the real issue at hand. To do otherwise is entirely
inconsistent with their pledge to conduct city business in an open and
honest manner, and flies in the face of good government.

UP-DATE ON PROPOSED SENIOR HOUSING IN SHOREWOOD
..
Dear Senior Citizens and Future Senior Citizens:
The Shorewood City Council met on Monday, Sept. 15, 1997 to consider the proposed
Affordable Senior Housing on the site near Freeman Park.
This Affordable Housing would provide a care-free, stair-free, maintenance-free Life-style for
Seniors (62 years old and older) and they would still be able to remain in their "Community"
near their friends, churches, doctors, shopping and the South Shore Senior/Community Center.
The opponents of this housing came out in "Force" and voiced their opposition and the end
result was the Council decided to do a study on their concerns and postpone the final vote
until the Council Meeting on Oct. 13, 1997.
If you believe in the need for this type of Housing - - - - - - -

Martin,
It is unfortunate that the paper has the power to do this and much
damage can occur.
I believe the best platform is to appear at a council meeting and speak
your mind. It is documented on video, NO ONE CAN ALTER WHAT YOU SAY,
and re-broadcast on cable. I am often traveling during meetings and
watch the re-broadcast to see what I have missed.
I believe our current council tries very hard to reflect the wishes of
the citizens of Shorewood. In regards to the current .senior citizen
housing" they have a huge serious decision to make...from watching the
re-broadcast council meetings I feel comfortable saying clearly the
majority of the neighborhood does not want 80 units (this is quite
different from saying they do not want senior housing) on the small
acreage...a smaller number seems to be a reasonable compromise...the
problem is this. ..Is a developer willing to make less money, put in
senior housing, and keep the neighbors who will be affected happy
too. ..1 suspect volume has to do with profits...unfortunately...This is
an impossible situation to make all happy...Sadly, it is coming down as
neighborhood vs seniors and this is truly unfair...WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO
ACCODOMATE BOTH WITHOUT CREATING AN "US VS THEM" SENARIO.
(PERSONALLY, WHEN I AM A SENIOR THE LAST PLACE I WOULD WANT TO LIVE NEXT
TO IS A FREEWAY)
I believe the council will not make any decision on this matter lightly
and I can only urge you and others to continue to be present and part of
the process to help mold the outcome.
regards,
Kate Lynch Bix

TO: Shorewood City Council
SUBJECT: Senior Housing Proposal
My wife Norma and I fit into the category of senior citizens. We are opposed to your
continued efforts to bring so-called Senior Housing into Shorewood. Please bring this
to the attention of council members at the meeting on Monday evening October 13.
As Shorewood residents for over 36 years we see no need to change the complexion
of the rural style of neighborhoods that make Shorewood what it is. We do not want the
council consistently considering, let alone approving, variances to the residential
zoning in place. The zoning was created to PREVENT encroachment of different types
of building and additions that modify the character of our community.
Lest you forget, we threw out the previous mayor and virtually all of the council
BECAUSE it frequently allowed--seemingly fostered--these re-zonings and catered to
the developers. If there is a code you are required to follow, a new vote can be taken to
cancel it. We understand this proposed development is for a region, not just for
Shorewood. Why would we want a small city like Shorewood to be the site for such
housing to benefit the adjacent cities, especially in an undesireable area on a busy
highway near a park conceived solely for children?
In all of our 36 years as residents in the same house we have never had a survey
brought to us for our opinion. We know of none of our friends who have been residents
for decades that have been asked questions about needing or wanting senior
housing. We would not be at all interested in moving into such a development away
from stores and churches and "downtown" conveniences to which we could walk.
DO NOT CHANGE THE CHARACTER of the quiet single dwelling neighborhood at the
site you are currently considering nor any other site not currently zoned for such
development. That is what you promised when we elected you. That is what we expect
of you now.

Subject: High-Density Housing Plan
Date: Fri, 3 Oct 1997 13:57:14 -0500
From: Steve.Hertzenberg@telex.com
To: city hall @dorthy.state.net
FILE COpy
Attached is a copy of a letter to the editor I sent to the Sun Sailor
regarding the proposed high-density housing project. It addresses the need
to deal with the facts surrounding this proposal -- not the conjecture,
illusion, and rhetoric that have clouded the issue so far. I urge you to
take it to heart. Otherwise, we will not arrive at a decision that is in
the best interests of the citizens of Shorewood. Instead, we will have a
disappointed conununity that made an emotional decision based on unrealistic
expectations. Clearly, this in not in anyone's best interests. If you
have any questions, please feel free to call me. (Daytime: 887-7462.
Evenings: 470-1685.)
The letter reads:
Council Must Focus On Truth in High-Density Housing Issue
To the editor:
The time has come for Shorewood?s City Council to focus on the real issue
involving the proposed 80 unit housing project. Too many misconceptions
exist surrounding this plan right now. Some believe the plan will result
in tax relief for current residents while others see those opposing the
plan as being anti-senior citizen. In truth, the issue is not about
phantom tax relief or Shorewood?s seniors at all. The issue is whether or
not we, as a conununity, want to add this high-density housing project, and
all that TRULY comes with it, to our community. Period.
Surely, the developer and proponents love seeing the issue continually
framed this way: as a vote for or against tax relief and aid to our senior
citizens. After all, who opposes tax relief? And no one is -- or wants to
appear as if they -- are "out to get" our parents and grandparents. When
viewed in this simplistic manner, how can the plan fail? The tragedy,
however, is that approval will be based on emotional rhetoric, illusory
benefits, and a touch of duplicity -- all dreadful reasons to .vote for or
against anything.
Thus, the Shorewood City Council must strip away the deceptive posturing
and focus on the real issue at hand. To do otherwise is entirely
inconsistent with their pledge to conduct city business in an open and
honest manner, and flies in the face of good government.

Seniors (62 years old and older) and they would still be able to remain in their "Community"
near their friends, churches, doctors, shopping and the South Shore Senior/Community Center.
The opponents of this housing came out in "Force" and voiced their opposition and the end
result was the Council decided to do a study on their concerns and postpone the final vote
until the Council Meeting on Oct. 13, 1997.

Martin,
It is unfortunate that the paper has the power to do this and much
damage can occur.
I believe the best platform is to appear at a council meeting and speak
your mind. It is documented on video, NO ONE CAN ALTER WHAT YOU SAY,
and re-broadcast on cable. I am often traveling during meetings and
watch the re-broadcast to see what I have missed.
I believe our current council tries very hard to reflect the wishes of
the citizens of Shorewood. In regards to the current "senior citizen
housing" they have a huge serious decision to make...from watching the
re-broadcast council meetings I feel comfortable saying clearly the
majority of the neighborhood does not want 80 units (this is quite
different from saying they do not want senior housing) on the small
acreage. ..a smaller number seems to be a reasonable compromise...the
problem is this...Is a developer willing to make less money, put in
senior housing, and keep the neighbors who will be affected happy
too...I suspect volume has to do with profits...unfortunately...This is
an impossible situation to make all happy...Sadly, it is coming down as
neighborhood vs seniors and this is truly unfair. ..WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO
ACCODOMATE BOTH WITHOUT CREATING AN "US VS THEM" SENARIO.
(PERSONALLY, WHEN I AM A SENIOR THE LAST PLACE I WOULD WANT TO LIVE NEXT
TO IS A FREEWAY)
I believe the council will not make any decision on this matter lightly
and I can only urge you and others to continue to be present and part of
the process to help mold the outcome.
regards,
Kate Lynch Bix

TO: Shorewood City Council
SUBJECT: Senior Housing Proposal
My wife Norma and I fit into the category of senior citizens. We are opposed to your
continued efforts to bring so-called Senior Housing into Shorewood. Please bring this
to the attention of council members at the meeting on Monday evening October 13.
As Shorewood residents for over 36 years we see no need to change the complexion
of the rural style of neighborhoods that make Shorewood what it is. We do not want the
council consistently considering, let alone approving, variances to the residential
zoning in place. The zoning was created to PREVENT encroachment of different types
of building and additions that modify the character of our community.
Lest you forget, we threw out the previous mayor and virtually all of the council
BECAUSE it frequently allowed--seemingly fostered--these re-zonings and catered to
the developers. If there is a code you are required to follow, a new vote can be taken to
cancel it. We understand this proposed development is for a region, not just for
Shorewood. Why would we want a small city like Shorewood to be the site for such
housing to benefit the adjacent cities, especially in an undesireable area on a busy
highway near a park conceived solely for children?
In all of our 36 years as residents in the same house we have never had a survey
brought to us for our opinion. We know of none of our friends who have been residents
for decades that have been asked questions about needing or wanting senior
housing. We would not be at all interested in moving into such a development away
from stores and churches and "downtown" conveniences to which we could walk.
DO NOT CHANGE THE CHARACTER of the quiet single dwelling neighborhood at the
site you are currently considering nor any other site not currently zoned for such
development. That is what you promised when we elected you. That is what we expect
of you now.

FROM: BUL HARDENBERG~ 5960 SEAMANS DRIVE
RE: SENIOR HOUSING
SHOREWOOD COUNCIL,
BEING UNABLE TO ATTEND TONIGlIT'S MEETING, I WANTED TO SEND SOME
THODGIITS ABOUT THE ISSUES. AGREE OR DISAGREE, I APPRECIATE IT IS A DIFFICULT
DECISION YOU MUST MAKE. MY BIGGEST FEAR IS THAT THIS CITY ACTS, NOT ON
FACTS, BUT ON WISHES. I TIIlNK SUPPORTERS OF THIS IDEA HAVE VERY LITTLE IN THE
WAY OF FACTS TO JUSTIfY SUCH A DRAMATIC INTRUSION INTO A RESIDENTIAL
NEIGHBORHOOD. MANY OF US IN THE SHOREWOOD ONE GROUP HOPE TO WORK WITH
THE CITY IN THE FUTURE TO COME-UP WITH A REAL SOLUTION- ONE THAT TAKES
EVERYONE'S INTERESTS INTO ACCOUNT. IN THE MEANTIME.....
NEED- I WOULD STRONGLY DEBATE THE IDEA THAT THERE IS A NEED FOR SENIOR
HOUSING IN SHOREWOOD. WHAT WE HAVE IS A WANT. THIS WANT WAS BEEN BIRTHED
AND CONTINUES TO BE NOURISHED BY THE MET COUNCn.., SENIOR ACTMSTS AND
SOME OF YOU IN OUR CITY GOVERNMENT. HOW IN THE WORLD DOES HAND RAISING
BY 38 SENIORS AT THE SENIOR CENTER CONSTITUTE NEED? I WOULD GUESS THE
SENIOR POPUlATION IN SHOREWOOD PUSHES 2000 PEOPLE. SO, MAYBE 1 OUT OF 52
(2%) SENIORS EXPRESSED A NEED. IF THERE WERE TRULY A NEED FOR SENIOR
HOUSING, THE MARKET WOULD BE BUILDlNG IT LEFf AND RIGlIT. WHAT IS REALLY
NEEDED IS FOR AIL OF YOU TO TRY TO DISTINGUISH NEEDS FROM WANTS FROM
DEMAND.
PROTOCOL- THIS ISSUE CONTINUES TO BE HANDLED POORLY BY MANY IN OUR CITY
GOVERNMENT. THOSE WITH AN AGENDA THAT REQUIRES SENIOR HOUSING- NO
MATTER THE COST- HA VB SHOWN BLATANT FAVORITISM TOWARDS SUPPORTERS. IT IS
EVIDENT IN EVERYTIllNG FROM THE ANECDOTAL SURVEYS TO THE SENIORS ONLY
SESSIONS TO THE LAST COUNCIL MEETING. I AM VERY UNCOMFORTABLE WITH
SUPPOSEDLY EVEN HANDED REPRESENTATIVES LEADING THE CHARGE FOR ONE
GROUP OVER ANOTHER. THE NOTION THAT WE SHOUW BUILD SENIOR HOUSING
BECAUSE IT CLOSES THE ''CIRCLE OF LlFE" OR BECAUSE SOMEONE WISHES "THEIR
MOTHER COULD LIVE THERE" IS NONSENSICAL AND SELFISH IN THAT ORDER.
ALL THE ARGUMENTS HA VB BEEN MADE. AS ONE OFTEN FINDS, IT COMES DOWN TO
THE LOGICAL VERSUS THE EMOTIONAL. TInS DEVELOPMENT WILL NOT HELP LOCAL
SENIORS AND WILL HURT LOCAL RESIDENfS. EVERYONE WANTS TO FEEL GOOD
ABOUT THEMSELVES. GOD KNOWS IT IS EASIER TO SAY YES THAN TO SAY NO. SO, IF
IT FEELS BETTER, SAY YES TO PRESERVING SHOREWOOD'S NEIGHBORHOODS AND
Oct 13 97 03:21p
PFEIFFER USA
6123619407
LIFESTYLES AND NO TO mGH DENSITY, TRAFFIC CLOGGING, MET COUNCIL DRIVEN
HOUSING PROJECTS.
IT IS TIME TO VOTE TIllS DOWN AND SAVE THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE DEVELOPER
ADDmONAL GRIEF AND EXPENSE. MORE IMPORTANTLY, IT IS TIME- ONCE AND FOR
ALL- TO AGREE THAT SHOREWOOD IS NOT THE PLACE FOR THE MET COUNCIL'S
SOCIAL IMPERATIVES. OTHERWISE, TIllS BATTLE IS GOING TO REPEATED AGAIN AND
AGAIN IN THE FUTURE. MANY OF US HAVE HAD ABOUT AS MUCH OF THIS AS WE CAN
HANDLE.
IF THIS CITY WANTS. TO SUPPORT SENIOR HOUSING AND PROTECT IT'S
NEIGHBORHOODS, THEN THERE MUST BE A NEW CREATIVE APPROACH TInS WILL
REQUIRE, ABOVE ALL, THAT ONLY PROJECTS ADHERING TO ZONING LAWS AND
NEIGHBORHOOD COMPATIBILITY BE CONSIDERED. IF A PROJECT FAILS TO :MEET THIS
SIMPLE MINIMUM LEVEL OF APPROPRIATENESS, IT MUST BE REJECTED. THANK YOu.

Mr. Mayor and City Council members.
RE: "Senior Housing", Eureka Road Project
Respectfully, ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MINDS!! We elected you nice folks
under the assumption you would do what is good for the city. I expect
you to follow that mandate. I strongly, STRONGLY urge you to take a
second look at what you are considering and put your positions of city
government aside and think clearly, realistically, and responsibly.
Drop this proposal for the senior housing project. Call it 'what you
want but we all know what it is, and where it is going.
It's not too late to do the right thing, and you know in your hearts
what that is. Drop it now. What is good for the seniors is a seperate
issue. This is an issue about high density housing and I do not believe
for a minute that anyone cares a damn about seniors as it relates to
this project. Money is the issue.
So let's see what you are made of. Corne on, people, show some backbone.
You know the answer should be no, so, say NO! You can do it. You must
do it.
You'll feel better about it, knowing you made the right choice. Drop
this project, please?

PROPOSED SENIOR TOWNHOMES
Near Freeman Park
CITY OF SHOREWOOD
A new neighborhood that truly feels like home!
Not .Just Another Development
The vision for this Townhome area is simple......build a traditional neighborhood for
Seniors (62 years old and older) who want an affordable care-free, stair-free home.
The location is nestled between the natural wetlands and Freeman Park in the City of
Shorewood. The Townhomes are architecturally designed using today's technology
and building techniques. . The Townhomes along with the professional landscaping
will contribute to the architectural beauty of the neighborhood. The result is a quality,
comfortable environment that truly feels like home.
An Alternative to Current Lifestyles
The T,ownhomes are maintenance-free....Iawns are sprinkled and cared for....snow
removal is provided....allowing you to live in and enjoy your own home during your
"grandparent years" and yet remain in your own "Community" allowing you to be near
your present church, shopping, dining out, doctor and friends.
tJjJordable
We are striving for a "manageably" base-priced home from $120,000 to $128,000.
You can choose from 2 architectural designs to meet a variety of personal tastes and
needs. Use our complete. list of options and accessories to reflect your personal style.
Enjoy the Neighborhood
Your Townhome will be a short stroll from Freeman Park where you can watch the
many activities. You will be very close to the new Shorewood Senior Center to
participate in the many events and activities.

Executive Summary
Shorewood City Council Meeting
Monday, October 13, 1997
Please note that the meeting will be held at the Southshore Senior
Community Center in anticipation of a large crowd.
, ..
Agenda Item #3A: Several years ago, in regard to an area petition, the City Council removed the turf trail
between Silverwood Park and Shady Hills Road from its trail plan. The Park Commission has asked
for several years that the boundaries of that City property be marked. This is an agreement for
professional services to install boundary markers.
Agenda Item #3B: This resolution authorizes budgeted transfers. It is an annual housekeeping
resolution.
'"
Agenda Item #3C: Annually the City budgets $80,000 for street overlays. The bids will be opened and
tabulated Friday. A full report and recommendation will be supplied to the Council before the
meeting. If you feel you need a fuller explanation, this item certainly could be pulled of the consent
agenda.
Agenda Item #3D: Crosstown Sign Company has requested a sign permit to replace the existing signs on
the Rapid Oil building at 19465 State Highway 7. The total area of the proposed signs exceeds Code
requirements, the wall sign extends above the roof, and the pylon sign is two feet higher than
allowed. The Planning Director recommends approval of only the pylon sign, subject to a two-foot
reduction in its height. Approval requires a simple majority vote.
Agenda Item #3E: This is an annual housekeeping motion. The form to be sent to the League of Cities
Insurance Trust is included in the packet.
Agenda Item #3F: The Minnetonka Youth Hockey Association has recommended Don Aslesen who
resides at 26055 Shorewood Oaks Drive, to be their representative on the Shorewood Park
Foundation. This resolution makes that appointment.
Agenda Item #3G: With this written agreement, we will be coordinating the cleaning of the Southshore
Senior Community Center with City Hall. Our agreement will be with Senior Community Services for
the services of Drew Kriesel who has provided the service for Shorewood City Hall for the past year.
He has done a commendable job for a very reasonable rate.
Agenda Item #3H: This is an additional contract for services with Senior Community Services for the
service of Drew Kriesel to provide skating rink supervisory services for this winter season.

Agenda Item #5A: Mike Greer, on behalf of his mother, has requested approval to subdivide her property
at 6045 Chaska Road into three lots. The lots meet or exceed the requirements of the R -1 C zoning
district. The Planning Commission agreed with the Planning Director's recommendation to approve
the division, subject to conditions. The resolution for this item will be distributed under separate
cover. Approval requires a simple majority vote.
Agenda Item #5B: The attached resolution includes findings of fact regarding the senior housing project
proposed by Eaglecrest Northwest. Planning Commission and Park Commission recommendations
have been incorporated into the conclusions of the resolution. Approval requires a four-fifths vote of
the Council. It should be noted that some action has to be taken on this item by the 27 October
meeting in order to comply with the 60-day rule. If you have any questions on this item, please
contact the Planning Director or the City Attorney on Monday before the meeting.
Agenda Item #6: This is a request for an abatement of a water assessment. Please review the request and
memorandum in the packet. The request seems consistent with the current policy of the Council.
Agenda Item #7: This ordinance provides for the adoption of the Tree Preservation Policy by reference .
and provides for penalties. In addition, the Council had previously briefly discussed administrative .
sanctions in relation to the tree preservation policy. There should be some additional discussion on
this topic while this ordinance is being considered. The Council might want to consider this as the
first reading of the ordinance with passage at a future date.
Agenda Item #9: This item is a change order to the Shady Island Bridge contract. This change order is a
planned change order for substitution of large boulder retaining walls versus the modular block walls
originally proposed. Concerns were raised by staff with regard to the anticipated damage which
would occur to a modular block wall as the ice from the lake heaves against the wall. Council was
notified during the award of the contract that this change order was pending. The amount of the
change order is $6,982.50 which is 2.6 % increase of the total contract. Staff is recommending
approval of the change order.

B . Review Agenda
Acting Mayor Stover read the Agenda for September 15, 1997. She announced the Council will
convene in a work session at the conclusion of the informational meeting.
2. DISCUSSION OF ISSUES RELATED TO PROPERTY LOCATED EAST OF
EUREKA ROAD BETWEEN NELSINE DRIVE AND ORCHARD CIRCLE -
KNOWN AS 5400 EUREKA ROAD
(1) Historical Perspective on the Property and Presentation of New Data
Planning Director Nielsen described the project in detail and related the historical perspective of the
project.
(2) Issues and the City's Role in the Process
.
Nielsen reviewed the issues surrounding the project as well as the manner in which the City has
investigated and addressed these issues.
Engineer Brown explained the role the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District has played in this .
project.
Paul Hornby, OSM, explained the 1975 Stormwater Management Plan was reviewed to determine
the sub-watershed for the subject area as well as the property contributing to the wetland area.
OSM also considered the drainage analysis which was completed relative to a roadway project for
Smithtown Road which was conducted by OSM in 1996.
Mr. Hornby explained consideration was given to the area contributory to the portion of the
wetland which is south of Pleasant Avenue. The area north of Pleasant A venue has a relatively
small drainage area which drains to a large holding facility. The remainder of the area south of
Pleasant Avenue drains to the wetland on both sides of Eureka Road.
As a part of the analysis, it was assumed all water would drain to the wetland area south of
Pleasant Avenue and Birch Bluff Road and across from Eureka. Using a 100 year run off event
and the storage available, the peak elevation would be approximately 932.3 which would not over
top Birch Bluff Road, however, it would over top a portion of Eureka Road.
#~A
CITY COUNCIL INFORMATIONAL MEETING
SEPTEMBER 15, 1997 - PAGE 2
As part of a further analysis, it was assumed a second 100 year event would follow behind the fIrst
and there is no available space remaining in the hatched areas. This analysis revealed that the peak
storage elevation would reach 933.2. This elevation would over top Birch Bluff Road as well as
Eureka Road. Mr. Hornby stated the restrictions put on the sub-watershed itself are very
conservative from an engineering standpoint and it is unlikely this scenario would actually happen.
The length of time it would take water to get from the farthest reach in a sub-watershed to the point
of storage, under the analysis of an urban area, fully developed with a storm sewer, would be
approximately 58 minutes. In actuality, it would take approximately four to fIve hours.
Brown explained the Watershed District raised questions as to why the City did not perform a
precise identifIcation as to the 100 year event. He further explained it would cost between $6,000
and $10,000 to obtain the necessary aerial photography and control survey, therefore,
consideration was given to a storm which is a greater event than the 100 year flood plain defInition
to see how that would impact the property. The elevation determined by OSM to be 932.3 is
greater than the flood plain and still meets the requirements of the ordinance. Brown explained the
Watershed District is giving consideration to utilizing the peak elevation which has been determined
by OSM.
.
Attorney Dean commented on the letter which was received from Svoboda Ecological Resources.
He noted Mr. Svoboda raises a number of issues which have been discussed and addressed by
staff.
Relative to the authority and limits of the City in imposing restrictions and conditions on the
building permit, Attorney Dean responded in a general way to the following issues. Mr. Svoboda
stated the house will be built on an alluvial outwash and Attorney Dean noted a soil report has been
prepared by PEC, Inc. He stated the City is building a fIle relative to this matter and to make an
assertion on the face of the building permit would be exceeding the City's authority.
With respect to Mr. Svoboda's suggestion there be a lO-year guarantee period for improvements,
Attorney Dean explained that State statute sets forth new home warranties and guarantees which
apply to all new residential construction.
Attorney Dean expressed concern relative to requiring an extraordinary period of guarantee once
the provisions have been met which would allow for the issuance of a building permit. .
Mr. Svoboda also suggested the developer be required to live on the property for a minimum of
two years after the building is completed. Attorney Dean felt this provision would exceed the
City's authority. He felt the letter was well stated and the points well raised, however, he has
significant concerns relative to each of them.
(3) Questions and Answers
Councilmember Garfunkel asked what step the Watershed District would be taking next. Brown
explained if the remaining issues relative to the plan submittals can be worked out, the Watershed
would act on wetland mitigation and satisfaction of the flood plain issues. If those answers are
forthcoming, the other requirements of the Watershed District have been met.
'-.
CITY COUNCIL INFORMATIONAL MEETING
SEPTEMBER 15, 1997 - PAGE 3
Brown pointed out there are two variances which will need to be granted by the Watershed District
relative to the wetland buffer of 35 feet. One variance is relative to the encroachment of the
driveway. In addition, one of the stakes at the northwest corner of the building pad is closer than
the 35-foot wetland setback. The Watershed District would have to grant approval of a variance to
~heir regulations with regard to setbacks along with the standard wetland and flood plain mitigation
Issues.
Brown further explained because of concerns of wetland stakes being moved and the events that
have taken place in the past, the City has required that the wetland be depicted as shown by the
wetland scientist and that the surveyor must review the plans and sign off stating that the wetland
was staked within a close period of time. Brown stated according to the plan, the corrected house
pad is approximately 43 feet by 22 feet.
Councilmember Garfunkel asked what factors the Watershed District will take into account when
considering the necessary variances. Brown explained based on his experience, it is more difficult
to grant the variance for the driveway than the one stake. The stake shown near the northwest
corner is one point which encroaches. With regard to the driveway, that encroachment is more
extensive.
. Councilmember O'Neill stated the applicant has admitted to falsifying stamped engineer documents
as well as moving wetland delineation stakes. A delineation stake on the driveway site was moved
and fill piled on a small part of the wetland.
Councilmember O'Neill asked whether additional inspections could be required which would be
charged back to the developer.
Attorney Dean stated these issues do give rise to concern the job is being completed in a proper
manner. As the City building official and engineer review the plans and the critical steps necessary
to carry out those plans, it would behoove the City in this and every case to be sure there are
prompt and thorough inspections. The City has the authority to stop work and require the steps are
carried out correctly. Attorney Dean stated it would be appropriate for the City to use caution
commensurate with the circumstances in this case.
.
Councilmember O'Neill asked for comment from Jim Hafner of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed
District relative to his comment at the Watershed District meeting that there is precedent set for the
granting of a variance for the driveway. Mr. Hafner stated the Watershed District is not required to
consider a retention pond given the fact this is a single family residence being proposed. He stated
variances are considered on a site by site case.
Councilmember McCarty inquired, assuming all variances are granted and permits are obtained, is
there anything that can be done to stop the project. Attorney Dean explained that if all required
approvals are received and there is a timely and proper application for a building permit and all
conditions of the permit are met, the City will be obligated to issue a building permit.
Councilmember O'Neill questioned what legal avenues are available to the City given the fact Mr.
Meline admitted he altered the plans. Attorney Dean stated this is a serious matter and it is the
intention of staff to investigate this matter, review the remedies available and report back to the
Council.
Dan Sherlock, 24460 Nelsine Drive, asked what the City is doing to ensure it can be protected in
the future. Attorney Dean explained staff will investigate the remedies available.
CITY COUNCIL INFORMATIONAL MEETING
SEPTEMBER 15, 1997 - PAGE 4
Roger Champa, 25500 Nelsine Drive, stated ordinances were adopted for good reasons, however,
changing times warrant changes to the ordinances. He expressed concern the ordinance permits a
two foot flood plain on a driveway. He felt the ordinance needs to be addressed.
Nielsen explained the City flood plain regulations which were adapted for the City are based on the
DNR model. Mr. Champa noted a significant change in the topography with all of the new
housing developments and felt this ordinance needs to be addressed.
Greg Larson, 25535 Orchard Circle, felt a significant amount of conflicting data had been provided
during the informational meeting. Mr. Larson felt there cannot be controversy that the project is
subject to extensive flooding.
Mr. Larson stated the building site and home is completely surrounded by wetland as close as 20
feet to the house itself and the driveway will be under water for up to 300 feet. It could be several
inches or up to two feet deep. Mr. Larson expressed concern relative to a building permit being
issued and any action which could be taken against the City by a future owner of the home.
Councilmember O'Neill questioned why the contours do not match up with the surveys. Brown
stated there are points which fall outside of the line and explained staff noticed the topography map .
which was used matches up with the 1966 topography map that the City has. The actual
topography did not include this nine or ten acre parcel. Brown noted the document is not an
official boundary survey and this is one of the things which will be discussed with the registered
land surveyor who signed off on the plan.
Acting Mayor Stover asked what steps the City will take regarding the boundary survey. Brown
stated the applicant has been asked to submit an official boundary survey to address setbacks as
well as the elevation points which were completed by the surveyor to certify by the laws of the
State of Minnesota that those are accurate.
Brown stated the City is interested in getting the boundary survey with the spot elevations on it. A
professional must sign off on that survey verifying that each individual point was found to be
accurate according to professional standards. Nielsen stated in addition to a Certificate of Survey
depicting the boundaries, a complete up to date topographic survey will also be required.
Mr. Larson stated he is disputing the basis that is used to determine whether this is, in fact, a
buildable site. Brown explained the elevations that are shown must be certified by a surveyor and
must comply with the flood plain ordinance. .
Mr. Champa suggested more data be taken back to the Watershed District so they may make a
decision. It was his understanding the Watershed District did not know what the true elevations
were for the proposed building site. The Watershed District consulted legal counsel to determine
who is responsible for establishing that level and it was determined the level would be established
by the Watershed District. Councilmember O'Neill stated it is part of the Legislature's mandate
that the Watershed District is to set the flood plain for its districts.
Councilmember O'Neill asked whether the developer could be required to do more. Nielsen stated
there could be additional requirements in an effort to ensure there will be no filling or to verify the
extent to which fill is placed below the flood plain elevation. There is an issue of wetland and
flood plain mitigation relative to this site.
Mr. Larson stated in 1987 water topped Eureka Road by approximately one foot. There is also a
stream flood potential. In speaking with a representative of the Army Corp of Engineers, Mr.
Larson commented there may be a floodway associated with the ravine and stream that is separate
and higher than the flood plain of the wetland itself.
.
.
CITY COUNCIL INFORMATIONAL MEETING
SEPTEMBER 15, 1997 - PAGE 5
Mr. Larson commented this project is very damaging to the trees and shrubs both on and off the
project site. He noted the wetland mitigation plan calls for the removal of a large number of trees.
Mr. Larson asked the Council to pass a resolution asking the Watershed District to reject the
mitigation plan because it is damaging to the vegetation surrounding the wetland.
Mr. Larson stated there is no association between the 100 year storm and the 100 year flood. He
recalled the storm of July 1987 storm where the water was one foot over Eureka Road. This storm
has been referred to as the worst storm in over 200 years. The engineer for the Watershed District
stated this was not the 100 year flood event, but was a 200 year rain event. Mr. Larson spoke with
the State climatologist and was informed the 100 year storm for most locations in Minnesota is
approximately six inches. There have been two such storms in the past 20 years.
Mr. Champa questioned the circumstances under which an ordinance was developed allowing a
driveway to be two feet below flood plain. Acting Mayor Stover explained the City adopted the
flood plain ordinance which was prepared by the DNR. Nielsen stated the DNR prepares a model
ordinance which can be adopted by the City or adapted to the City's circumstances. He explained
the City used the numbers and standards from the model because it is an acceptable and defensible
standard which is recommended by the DNR.
Brown asked Attorney Dean for his input relative to any ordinance changes which would be made
at this point. Attorney Dean felt it would be appropriate for Brown, in connection with OSM or
others, to complete some preliminary leg work to see if, in fact, there is some justification for a
number other than two feet. He stated a report should be made back to the Council as soon as
possible. In terms of the subject project, Attorney Dean did not feel it would be too late to factor
this into the review of this particular matter.
Acting Mayor Stover asked for an explanation of the 100 year flood. Brown explained the 100
year event has to do with statistics of the law of averages over time and how often that type of
storm would occur. He stated OSM did run two back to back 100 year events to see what would
happen and that elevation came up to 933.2 which does not impact the house pad. Attorney Dean
noted his understanding this would, however, impact upon the driveway and Brown confmned
this. Brown clarified the discussion was not about the 100 year flood plain precisely, but
something more conservative.
Mr. Larson provided photographs of the mitigation areas which will impact the trees in the area.
Councilmember O'Neill suggested a resolution be developed and added to the next Council agenda
relative to the mitigation area and the impact it will have on the trees.
Barbara Cameron, 5490 Wedgewood Drive, asked what guarantees there are that her home will not
flood as a result of this project. She noted she has made a substantial amount of improvements to
her home. Brown stated the signature of a professional engineer will be required and under the
City's authority it is the only tool available to address that issue.
Ms. Cameron expressed concern relative to utilizing Mr. Meline's engineer given his previous
conduct regarding this matter. Councilmember McCarty asked if a neutral engineer could be
utilized at the expense of the applicant. Brown suggested OSM review the stormwater calculations
as a neutral engineer, however, he did not feel the cost could be passed on to the applicant. Mr.
Hornby stated OSM would charge under $800 to do this work. Acting Mayor Stover felt an
applicant would have the right to obtain their own engineer.
Frank Svoboda, 25580 Nelsine Drive, stated he has not seen the soils report. He expressed
concern the material which eroded out of the ravine would, over time, consolidate and compact.
He felt conceivably there could be peat somewhere below 7.5 to 9 feet.
CITY COUNCIL INFORMATIONAL MEETING
SEPTEMBER 15, 1997 - PAGE 6
Councilmember O'Neill asked for Mr. Hornby's opinion on building a house on peat which is 8 to
10 feet down. Mr. Hornby stated that peat which is that far down will probably not consolidate.
Brown stated there were concerns relative to the foundation and, therefore, it is being required that
a professional engineer sign off on the foundation design.
Mr. Sherlock asked whether this is a high risk site given the number of signatures which are being
required. He felt this to be a marginal site and asked why the City is even considering it. Brown
commented no one feels this is a prime building site, however, the City uses the tools it has
available and in that regard has requested a number of certifications.
Councilmember O'Neill proposed this matter be added to the next agenda and at that time the
Council will discuss having another engineer review the soil report and render an opinion. Acting
Mayor Stover suggested this be scheduled for another meeting given the agenda which has already
been established for the next meeting.
Brown noted another engineer may have a problem with reviewing the report since he did not
perform the borings. He commented Mr. Meline may be open to an easement situation in which
borings could be taken. Attorney Dean stated engineering reports many times contain disclaimers
which limit what they are responsible for given what they actually saw.
Councilmember McCarty pointed out there are more borings taken for a tennis court than have been
taken for this project.
.
Mr. Svoboda suggested elevation points of the wetland edge stakes be taken. Brown explained
because of the amount of controversy and the events which have taken place with regard to the
stakes, there was a requirement the stakes be surveyed directly after the wetland was reestablished.
In addition, there was a precise sequence of events which had to take place with regard to the plan
preparation because of the credibility issues which were raised.
Mr. Svoboda commented in constructing the driveway there may be excess material which will
need to be removed and disposed of. He noted that removing material from the building pad area
is going to also generate excess material which will need to be disposed of. When the wetland is
mitigated this will require the removal of cubic yards of material. Mr. Svoboda asked where this
excess material will be placed. Nielsen stated the material which comes out of the building
foundation is typically spread around the building to create drainage around the .building. The .
material which is excavated for wetland mitigation would have to be deposited in an approved
dumping site and disposed of off of the site.
Mr. Svoboda felt there will be substantial costs associated with soil correction. There will also be
an issue of obtaining permission from some other property owner to dispose of the material which
is not suitable for construction elsewhere.
Councilmember O'Neill felt there to be significant costs in just preparing the site for the house.
Acting Mayor Stover stated when an application is made for a building permit, the City cannot
critique the advisability of the plan.
Mr. Svoboda inquired whether OSM made calculations relative to how much water will flow
through the ravine in the first 100 year event and in the second 100 year event. Mr. Hornby stated
he did not take into consideration the different topography along the route.
Brown stated although OSM analyzed two back to back 100 year storms, the only thing which can
be enforced is the 100 year event. This was simply done for the City's own comfort level.

Colleen O'Neill, 25540 Nelsine Drive, commented on Mr. Meline's behavior and attitude
regarding the project. She asked why there is a discrepancy between the City's information and
the Watershed District's information relative to the size of the site and the percentage which is
wetland. Nielsen explained his calculation was based on measuring the site, especially the part
which is very uneven.
Mr. Hafner stated the Watershed District obtained their figures from the hydrologic calculations
which had been provided.
Ms. O'Neill asked if the proposed ditch on the south side of the driveway is a requirement.
Nielsen stated it is a requirement and for any feature which would trap water, there would need to
be a means of relieving the water.
With respect to the sprinkling of the house, Ms. O'Neill asked whether that will require municipal
water to the property. Nielsen stated he anticipates this will be city water and was unsure whether
this service could be provided through a well system. Ms. O'Neill questioned how deep the line
will be. Brown stated typically the service would be 6 to 8 feet deep. Mr. Meline will be required
to pay for this service on a per foot basis. Brown stated he has observed situations in which
booster pumps and storage pressure tanks have been added to a private well system. He note this
is not economical and he would not expect to see that on the plan.
Ms. O'Neill expressed concern relative to the soil excavation and the recommendation the
excavation be carefully performed with the use of a backhoe. She asked what can be done to
supervise and protect this private site. Nielsen explained in terms of excavation, there is a
requirement that the building inspector be called to examine the excavation. The building inspector
routinely has people clean out excavations which have been over worked or rained on. Beyond
that, the issue is the fIll which is brought in and compacted over that. There will be a requirement
his soil engineer be there for the compaction which is done since he has requested this be done in
lifts.
Ms. O'Neill asked what will happen if the developer abandons the project. Brown stated a
nuisance/eye sore complaint could be made if the house were unfinished and construction debris
were left. In regard to the Watershed District permit in connection with proper restoration to avoid
erosion into the wetland, the permit is very clear as to the specified time in which the open material
needs to be restored and seeded. Mr. Hafner stated the time limit to be 48 hours to two weeks,
however, the Watershed District would prefer a shorter period of time.
Ms. O'Neill questioned whether there is a specified period of time in which the building permit is
valid. Nielsen stated the applicant must start construction within 180 days and maintain progress
every 180 days. It was noted it could take as long as three years to build a home under those
guidelines.
Ms. O'Neill suggested the City establish a review board for developers utilizing marginal
properties and expressed concern this builder does not live up to the standards expected of a
developer in Shorewood. Administrator Hurm will work with staff to investigate this matter.
Rick Stromberg, 5510 Wedgewood Drive, displayed the pictures which were provided at the
previous Council meeting and Brown noted they are on fIle.
Ms. Cameron provided the members of the Council with a copy of the police report in which Mr.
Meline was abusive to her daughter.

.
Review of the 1998-2002 Capital Improvement Program
Water
Should watermain be installed along Strawberry Lane if a street
reconstruction or pavement reclamation project is to proceed?
With respect to the replacement of the Badger well building, Brown stated the $120,000 cost is a
conservative estimate. OSM had estimated a cost of $210,000, however Brown felt this to be
excessive~ As a part of the estimate, the 5,000 gallon tank needs to be removed. There will need
to be some piping modifications as well.
Brown noted there are EP A and plumbing code regulations regarding the chemical rooms. If there
are major modifications, a chlorine scrubber must be installed at an approximate cost of $120,000,
so it is the intent of staff to keep the existing chlorine room in its current state, therefore, it will be
necessary to design around this.
With respect to potential watermain projects such as Strawberry Lane, Councilmember O'Neill
stated he is not a fan of water, but he felt the residents should be consulted and their input
obtained.

With respect to Strawberry Lane, Acting Mayor Stover commented the overall cost would possibly
be less if sewer and water lines were put in at one time. She also felt neighborhood input should
be obtained.
Should the Amesbury well system be interconnected to the southeast area
water system and tower?
Brown expressed concern relative to the number of customers on the dead end loop which extends
from Boulder Bridge along Smithtown Road ultimately ending in Shorewood Oaks. He is
awaiting the new test results of the fIre flow capabilities for the senior housing project. From an
efficiency and customer service satisfaction standpoint, Brown stated he is not comfortable with
the number of customers on this dead end system. He stated it would be optimal to interconnect
the watermain down Eureka Road.
Should the watermain be extended along Highway 7 from Shorewood Oaks
Drive to the area between Freeman Park and Eureka Road in anticipation 0 f
development occurring in that area?
Acting Mayor Stover questioned whether the City would pay for this. Brown explained the
developer of the senior housing project would pay for a typical8-inch line and the City would pick
up the trunk oversizing costs. Councilmember Garfunkel did not feel this issue could be addressed
until a decision is made relative to the senior housing project.
If the Blegin development is pursued south of Vine Street on Manor Road,
should a short piece of watermain be extended along Manor Road to serve
this subdivision?
Nielsen explained a fInal plan for the Blegin development will need to be submitted by November
or December. He noted the water policy has changed since the earlier approvals were given
relative to this project. Nielsen explained this will involve three or four lots.
Brown explained the Water Implementation Plan calls for a trunk line main installed on this site. If
the developer chooses to extend watermain down through the plat, he would be responsible for the
cost of the trunk line and the City would pay the cost for any oversizing along Vine Hill Road.
Councilmember O'Neill felt this matter should be deferred until the water plan is fInalized. There
was disagreement among the councilmembers whether a development is required to install
municipal water or if a 100 percent petition would need to be submitted.
It was agreed this work session will be further continued to October 28, 1997, at 7:30 p.m.

SEPTEMBER 22, 1997 - PAGE 3
B . A Motion to Direct Staff to Prepare Findings of Fact Regarding
Concept Plan Review of Planned Unit Development for Senior
Housing Community
Applicant:
Location:
Eaglecrest Northwest
25600 Highway 7 & 6140 Eureka Road
Planning Director Nielsen explained the proposed development in detail. Mr. Bill Gleason,
Eaglecrest Northwest, was in attendance and referred to a letter which was prepared by Mayor
Dahlberg. He felt Mayor Dahlberg made ascertains and assumptions regarding Eaglecrest
Northwest which are inaccurate and untrue. Mr. Gleason stated Eaglecrest Northwest came into
the city with the idea there is an ordinance in place and a need for senior housing. He explained he
had been contacted by one of the land owners who asked whether he would be interested in this
project.
Mr. Gleason noted his understanding the traffic generated from the proposed development is based
on the lowest possible trips taken out of a townhouse development which is not age restricted.
Nielsen explained manuals of the Institute of Transportation Engineers were reviewed. The
manuals contain breakdowns of trip generations for various kinds of land uses. The manuals
indicate there are not many studies which are based exclusively on senior housing and it was
suggested the range for townhouses would be somewhat higher than would be found in a senior
housing development. The range for townhouses is five to eight trips per unit.
Mr. John Gleason was also in attendance and addressed the issue of traffic generation. He
explained a traffic study was performed at the Brooklyn Park development which consists of 44
units. Of the project, 32 of the homes are 62 and older. A traffic study was conducted from 6:00
a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and this reflected approximately 2.4 trips per household.
Bernadette Thompson, 6100 Seamans Drive, felt there to be numerous legal problems with the
development. She raised the following issues: (l) Swapping of park land for other land. (2) How
is lot size defined. (3) How much useable open space exists. Ms. Thompson stated there is an
ordinance requirement for useable open space of 20 percent for each of the designated lots. (4) Is
the Conditional Use Permit applied for at the same time as the Concept Plan. Nielsen explained the
applicant has applied for a Conditional Use Permit. The issue before the Council is consideration
of concept stage approval only. The Conditional Use Permit is not issued until the final plan is
approved. (5) The Conditional Use Permit which was given to Lan-De-Con will expire. If Lan-
De-Con sells the property and the Conditional Use Permit expires, the land will revert to the R-IA
zoning which was in place prior to that Conditional Use Permit. (6) If the property reverts back to
R-IA zoning, this would result in a fewer number of units which could be built on this site. (7)
Compatibility with the surrounding neighborhood. Ms. Thompson did not feel this project is
compatible with the surrounding area given the fact it was previously a tree farm. (8) Can the use
be accommodated by the existing traffic, sewer and water capabilities. Ms. Thompson noted there
is a problem with the existing water flow. (9) Increased traffic flow. (10) The setbacks are 10
feet short on two sides and if approval is granted, a map reflecting the correct setbacks would need
to be submitted. (11) At least one unit is in the wetland. Ms. Thompson expressed concern
members of her neighborhood are continuing to come back to the City to raise these issues and she
asked that the Council address them.
Ms. Thompson commented on the campaign promises which were made and recited a quote from
Councilmember Garfunkel relative to high density housing. She requested a unanimous vote
rejecting this request.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
SEPTEMBER 22, 1997 - PAGE 4
With respect to swapping park land, Attorney Dean explained most cities have rules if land is
acquired through dedicated park funds for park purposes and later disposed of, the money realized
from the sale must go back into the park fund. In addition, there are rare instances in which the
city does not actually own their park but has received a limited purpose bequest or donation of land
which reverts to the donor if the land ceases to be used for a particular purpose. That, however, is
a very rare occurrence.
Councilmember O'Neill questioned whether the City should obtain an appraisal. Attorney Dean
responded it would be prudent, however, there is no requirement in the law that the swap be for
greater than equal value.
Relative to useable open space, Nielsen stated 29 percent has been tabulated for the site. There is
some confusion as to how the land will be subdivided. A minimum of 20 percent of the project
will be open space and this figure cannot include driveways or buildings.
With respect to the Lan-De-Con Conditional Use Permit, Nielsen was unable to recall a rezoning
and noted his belief the zoning goes back prior to the request of Lan-De-Con. He will investigate
this matter.
Acting Mayor Stover stated compatibility for the neighborhood has generally been considered to .
mean that it is a similar use and not terribly unusual.
Acting Mayor Stover stated the property is openly on the market for sale and could be developed in
many ways, including under the current zoning which would still result in increased traffic and
increased use of water and sewer systems.
Nielsen addressed the issue of setbacks and was uncertain where the setbacks were short other
than the Eureka Road side which will be moved to reflect the new right-of-way rather than the
existing. Acting Mayor Stover noted the actual location of the buildings will not be determined
until the next stage of the process.
Ingrid Schaff, 25605 Smithtown Road, stated she is very much in favor of the proposed project.
Ms. Schaff produced a flyer which she had received opposing the project. Councilmember
McCarty requested copies of the flyer for review by the Council. Ms. Schaff expressed concern
relative to Mayor Dahlberg's letter and felt he should have been in attendance at the public hearings
which were held. She stated this is not Section 8 housing and she did not feel seniors should have .
to move out of Shorewood.
Steve Frazier, 6125 Seamans Drive, stated no one on Seamans Drive received notice of the public
hearing and he stated he did not appreciate being left out of the hearing. Acting Mayor Stover
pointed out notices were sent farther than the required notice area.
Mr. Frazier stated he produced the flyer referenced by Ms. Schaff and stated the Shorewood One
Homeowners Association has been in effect since the last development. Mr. Frazier addressed the
issue of compatibility and felt there must be compatibility with the zoning, square footage and the
homes in the area. He did not feel the number of proposed units to be compatible with the area.
He felt the area next to Seamans Drive will be the next target which will impact the Seamans Drive
neighborhood. Mr. Frazier raised concern relative to traffic and stated a city street has been
planned which will be brought to the entrance of the development. He also commented on the
corridors to Highway 7 which are going to be closed.
Acting Mayor Stover explained the corridor closures are the result of a Highway 7 corridor study
which was sponsored by MNDOT. These closures will occur whether or not any development
occurs. and have nothing to do with the development.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
SEPTEMBER 22, 1997 - PAGE 5
Mr. Frazier stated he is opposed to any swapping of park land. He stated he entered into
negotiations with Frank Kelly relative to Freeman Park. The agreement was to swap Mr. Kelly's
land in exchange for his sewer assessment. Mr. Frazier recalled the agreement prohibits any future
Council from selling off Freeman Park or swapping any of the land.
With respect to zoning, Mr. Frazier urged the Council not to split the zoning on this project. He
also raised the issue of light intrusion. In addition, Mr. Frazier felt there to be a safety issue with
only one entrance into the project.
Mr. Frazier asked the Council to reject the concept plan and not subsidize or reduce any of the fees
for the project. In addition, he asked that no variances be granted.
Councilmember O'Neill asked for an explanation of why the fees can be reduced. Nielsen
explained the basis for that provision in the ordinance is that seniors have a lessor impact on an
area than family housing would. In addition, the people per unit is typically lower as is trip
generation and use of sewer and water. In recognition of the lower impacts, the fees for senior
housing are reduced. It was also included as an incentive to do senior housing.
.
The reduction in fees would apply only to sewer and park dedication fees. The water assessment
is $5,000 per unit or $20,000 per building if municipal water is utilized. Other options would also
be available such as owning and operating their own system or connecting to Chanhassen.
Sara Lansela, 5925 Eureka Road, urged the Council to take a close look at the wetland delineation
which is being staked and keep in mind the amount of drainage which goes into this wetland. She
explained the parcels which the City intends to swap are integral to this drainage. Acting Mayor
Stover stated this matter will be investigated.
Acting Mayor Stover recessed the meeting at 9:27 p.m. and reconvened at 9:35 p.m.
Mr. Gleason stated a wetland delineation has been completed. In the concept stage a delineation is
not called for and there are issues which need to be addressed and changes made. He explained the
park land swap is not something that has to be done, however, it seemed to make sense. The swap
is not necessary for the developer in order to proceed with the project. Mr. Gleason stated at this
point he is not looking for final approval.
. Planning Commissioner Turgeon addressed the requirements of a concept plan. She noted the
concerns which are being raised are not new and no additional information has been submitted
which the Planning Commission did not have. The issues of wetland delineation, drainage and
traffic are all addressed in the recommendation made by the Planning Commission. The
development cannot proceed any further until those concerns have been addressed or mitigated.
Bob Gagne, 24850 Amlee Road, commented changes will continue to occur and if they had not
been made, Shorewood would not be developed to the point it is now. He felt most seniors would
be happy living close to the park. With respect to the issue of water, whether a person is for or
against municipal water, the City has a current water system which will receive 80 more people
who are paying for it.
Alvin Wagner, 25720 Old Highway 7, Excelsior, explained he farmed this property and the ravine
is not a wetland, but was constructed by him. He explained water will run where the land is low
and he has ensured a low area to accommodate drainage.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
SEPTEMBER 22, 1997 - PAGE 6
Debra Borkon, 5590 Shore Road, Shorewood, stated this is a very difficult issue, one that has
been examined for a very long period of time. Residents in the area have reason to be concerned
about the surrounding property and how it will impact their property and how it will affect them.
She commented that as the Comprehensive Plan stands now, one stated goal is to develop senior
housing. Ms. Borkon stated it is important that the Council recognize they are here as community
representatives and the issue has to do with the community and its development.
Ms. Borkon stated the issue of senior housing also has to do with children, the way they live in the
City, how they mature into adults, possibly relocating here with their family, maturing and
possibly wanting to stay here. She stated this is a cycle which is important to the community.
This type of housing completes the circle and creates an integral part of the circle which needs to be
looked at in more serious way.
Ms. Borkon stated with careful planning through the concept stage, these issues can be addressed
in a way that is acceptable. She noted approximately nine seniors who are in favor of the project
had to leave during the break given the lateness of the hour.
Cory Nelson, 5980 Seamans Drive, felt the major issue to be compatibility~ He felt the traffic
study needs to be addressed now to see if the concept really works. Mr. Nelson felt more study
could be done and 20 units would be workable. He felt the people who are in favor of this project .
do not live in the area. Mr. Nelson commented if there are not services provided on site, the traffic
will be closer to that of a townhome development.
George Greenfield, 24715 Yellowstone Trail, stated he lives in the area and is in favor of the
senior project. He felt the problems the neighbors claim the project will generate are no different
than what the other developments generate. Mr. Greenfield stated it is healthy to have community
where people are at all stages of life. Mr. Greenfield felt there are those who would like to make
Shorewood a gaited community for only those who earn in excess of $250,000. Mr. Greenfield
remarked the Council only needs to ensure the developer is qualified and will do a quality job.
Bud Koch, 22845 Murray Street, expressed concern relative to how many people will be able to
afford to purchase a home in this development. Mr. Koch stated he lives in the area and feels this
project to be compatible with the area. He remarked the density and compatibility are more
consistent with the surrounding area than a two or four story building would be.
With respect to traffic, Mr. Koch stated he cannot recall when there has not been a traffic problem
in Shorewood. He commented when one problem area is solved, a problem is created in another
area. Mr. Koch stated there is no housing available in Shorewood for seniors. Of the senior
housing available in other areas, there is an issue of affordability.
.
Kathy McDougle, 25425 Mann Lane, questioned who will determine when the conditions have
been met satisfactorily. She felt the issue of traffic must be addressed prior to approving this
project. Ms. McDougle felt it to be demeaning to refer to seniors in the sense of traveling less and
using less utilities. Ms. McDougle presented the Council with a Petition asking that an
environment assessment worksheet be completed.
Bill Hardenberg, 5960 Seamans Drive, felt the Seasons development to be a senior housing
development and stated there are five units available. There is a total of 24 units with 5 units
remaining vacant at this time. He felt if there were a demand for senior housing, these units would
be filled.
Mr. Hardenberg stated there are two roads entering and exiting the Seasons project, resulting in
one exit for 12 units. The proposed development plans on one outlet for 80 units which he felt
would result in a tremendous increase in traffic.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
SEPTEMBER 22, 1997 - PAGE 7
Mr. Hardenberg recalled the model unit at the Seasons contained signatures of everyone who has
visited the project. There were 90 signatures since the fIrst of the year consisting of one signature
from Shorewood, six from Excelsior and 83 from out of town.
Acting Mayor Stover pointed out the units at the Seasons are for residents 55 and over and sell for
a much higher price.
Keith Monjack, 6140 Pleasant Avenue Shorewood, felt this to be a wonderful project, but too
many units on a small piece of land. He felt if half as many units were proposed, the
neighborhood would fInd it acceptable. Mr. Monjack stated the senior population is not one
particular group of people with one set of needs. He pointed out many are still working and many
travel more than some other groups of people. He felt it would be appropriate to add another
entrance given the number of units.
.
Jim McDougle, 25425 Mann Lane, commented on the Seasons project and noted $185,000 to be
the base price. He stated he is not against senior housing, but is against high density for this area.
Mr. McDougle commented there is an issue with density no matter what goes into this area because
roads, water and traffIc are impacted by this density. He felt the neighborhood would be in favor
of something closer to 50 units.
Mike Agnew, 6065 Eureka Road, asked if this is a second home being subsidized for the seniors
when they leave during the winter months. He expressed concern relative to closing the exit out of
Freeman Park. Mr. Agnew stated the density on Eureka will be increased even though it is already
dangerous.
Mr. Agnew was upset he had not been notifIed of the public hearing. He stated he is opposed to
senior housing in Shorewood and felt it should be addressed in cooperation with other
municipalities. He did not believe any of the requirements of the study are being met by this
project.
Councilmember O'Neill explained that MNDOT is closing the exit to Freeman Park and this is
being done because of the bend in the road which MNDOT has determined to be unsafe.
Paul Plate, 25405 Mann Lane, felt high density results in more traffIc and results in a danger to
children in the area.
.
Jim Merdes, Glenn Lake, stated he is a former resident who would like to return to Shorewood.
With respect to high density, he suggested the residents view the project in Brooklyn Park which is
on the same acreage and does not reflect high density. Mr. Merdes commented he does not come
and go during peak hours because he doesn't have to. Mr. Merdes urged the Council to consider
the needs of the future for higher density, less square footage, and maintenance free housing which
allows the leisure to do what you want.
Acting Mayor Stover closed the public comments at 10:31 p.m.
Councilmember McCarty commented on promoting the quality of life and asked that everyone
consider who built the community. If affordable housing can be provided, she stated she would
like the Council to do it. Councilmember McCarty pointed out Dial-A-Ride services are available
and she did not feel the seniors will be isolated. The Planning Commission and previous Councils
have considered this type of project and she stated she would vote in favor of the project.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
SEPTEMBER 22, 1997 . PAGE 8
Councilmember Garfunkel did not feel anyone on the Council to be opposed to senior housing.
He stated there is a need for senior housing, however, the question is whether this is the right
project and the way it should be done.
Councilmember O'Neill commented that although he is opposed to high density, the seniors who
have given their support to the project have moved him greatly. He noted there are many issues
which need to be addressed and he would like to further investigate this matter. He did not feel
prepared to vote on this issue at this time.
Acting Mayor Stover preferred the reference to lifestyle change rather than senior housing. She
noted previous Councils have been very supportive of the concept of senior housing in
Shorewood. The problems which need to be addressed will be worked out in the development
stage of the project and will come before the Council again for approval.
Acting Mayor Stover explained if the project is stopped now, there is no option to look into it to
see if it is a possibility. She commented when addressing affordability, a dollar figure should be
utilized rather than the word "affordable."
Acting Mayor Stover stated she very strongly supports this project and, if it is approved, it will .
come before the Council in three weeks at which time the Mayor will be in attendance.
Councilmember McCarty requested the Fire Marshal be consulted relative to whether or not one
entrance is adequate for the development. She also pointed out she lives in the area and would be
affected by this development as well.
Acting Mayor Stover pointed out the City has always tried to accomplish a number of objectives in
cooperation with other communities and did not feel it was ever intended the project would be
exclusively for Shorewood.
McCarty moved, Stover seconded directing Staff to prepare Findings of Fact
regarding Concept Plan Review of Planned Unit Development for Senior Housing
Community for Eaglecrest Northwest, 25600 Highway 7 and 6140 Eureka Road.
Motion passed 3/0. (Councilmember O'Neill abstained.)
There was a request from the audience for public input at the time this matter is next considered.
Councilmember Garfunkel stated he would hope the public input would be for the purpose of .
presenting new information.
Acting Mayor Stover recessed the meeting at 10:47 p.m. and reconvened at 10:54 p.m.

8. CONSIDERATION OF A MOTION TO ADOPT A RESOLUTION
RECOMMENDING TO THE MINNEHAHA CREEK WATERSHED
DISTRICT DENIAL OF A VARIANCE REGARDING PROPERTY KNOWN
AS 5400 EUREKA ROAD
Mr. Evan Meline, P.O. Box 14, Wayzata, was in attendance. He explained he has an option on
the property and he felt that to be acceptable to the Watershed District.
Mr. Meline was opposed to the wording of the resolution based upon the engineer's findings and
those of the landscape architect. Mr. Meline stated there is only one tree which will be removed
rather than extensive tree removal as referenced in the resolution.
.
Councilmember O'Neill pointed out a property line survey has not been completed and it is difficult
to determine where the mitigation is going to be.
Mr. Meline stated the property line in marked on the plan and commented it may not be marked on
the property because some of the neighbors may have moved the stakes. Councilmember O'Neill
pointed out Mr. Meline has placed property stakes on Councilmember O'Neill's property which are
across the property line. Nielsen stated the last plans the City has received clearly indicate they are
not a boundary survey.
Attorney Dean explained each of the points raised in the resolution were points mentioned at the
informational meeting of September 15, 1997. These issues were addressed by individuals at that
meeting and stated facts such as the ones indicated in the resolution did exist and because of those
concerns, the Council directed this resolution be prepared putting the Watershed District on notice
of those concerns.
.
Mr. Meline asked that the record reflect the statements in the resolution are summarily incorrect and
that the City has no engineering facts, simply opinions. Attorney Dean suggested when Mr.
Meline address the Watershed District that he be able to support his comments with engineering
data and other supporting materials.
Acting Mayor Stover did not believe any of the statements were made in absolute fact, but are
issues the City would like the Watershed District to address.
Attorney Dean felt the resolution to be a reasonable interpretation of the information which was
presented at the informational hearing.
Greg Larson, 25535 Orchard Circle, noted he had requested the City to join with the neighborhood
association in asking the Watershed District to reject the mitigation plan.
Mr. Larson explained the permit being requested has many damaging aspects which include the
damage which occurs through the filling process. A long strip of natural vegetation will be
eliminated. A variance is also requested relative to driveway buffer requirements.
Mr. Larson stated if the Watershed District does approve the plan, the neighborhood group will
legally appeal that decision.
CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
SEPTEMBER 22, 1997 - PAGE 10
Councilmember O'Neill felt there to be a fair amount of vegetation which will be eliminated for the
mitigation.
Garfunkel moved, O'Neill seconded adopting RESOLUTION NO. 97-81, "A
Resolution Recommending to the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District Denial of a
Variance Regarding Property Known as 5400 Eureka Road." Motion passed 4/0.
9. CONSIDERATION OF A MOTION TO ADOPT AN ORDINANCE
. ESTABLISHING A SPEED LIMIT ON THE LRT (REGIONAL TRAIL)
It was noted two suggested ordinances have been prepared for Council consideration, one for 10
mph and one for 15 mph. The other option is to leave the speed limit at 20 mph as currently set.
Councilmember O'Neill stated that having talked to Officer Keller as well as a number of residents
and the prosecuting attorney, he would be in favor of leaving the speed limit at 20 mph, but would
suggest following the prosecutor's recommendations that any speed over 5 mph be prosecuted. It
was pointed out only one citation was contested and it was indicated that was not for speeding.
Acting Mayor Stover noted it would be necessary to re-educate the public to a new speed limit. In
addition most of the citations where issued to nonresidents. Councilmember O'Neill suggested .
using larger signs. Councilmember Garfunkel felt the speed limit should be set where the Council
wants it and enforce it and not set it at a lower speed with the hope of achieving a particular speed
limit.
Duane Laurila, 5595 Eureka Road, did not feel snowmobiles should be on the trail, however, if
they are permitted, then A TV s should also be allowed. He did not feel the trail to be a safe
environment in which to walk. Mr. Laurila felt no matter what the speed limit is, the issue is
whether the police will enforce this speed limit. Councilmember O'Neill stated this has been
addressed and this will not be an issue this year, however, he stated he will not try to second guess
the officer who is out and dealing with a particular case. Mr. Laurila felt the speed limit should be
set at 10 mph. .
Acting Mayor Stover noted the speed limit on the streets for snowmobiles is 10 mph.
Dave Wright felt the police to be doing their job. He felt the survey reflected most people in
Shorewood still want snowmobile use on the trail. Mr. Wright felt four or five people to be doing .
90 percent of the complaining. He felt 20 mph to be an appropriate speed. Mr. Wright felt that
pedestrians are the only ones who are safe on the trail.
Councilmember O'Neill suggested Chief Young be advised to enforce at lower speeds than last
year and follow the suggestions of the prosecutor.
It was the consensus of the Council to leave the speed limit as currently set at 20 mph.
A . Consideration of a Motion to Authorize a Contribution of Funds to
the Mound Fire Department for the Purchase of a Night Vision Iris
Stover moved, McCarty seconded authorizing a contribution of $455 to the
Mound Fire Department for the purchase of a Night Vision Iris. Motion passed
4/0.

10. . ADMINISTRATOR & STAFF REPORTS
A . Staff Report on Development Monitoring
Watten Ponds
Nielsen reported preliminary tree preservation plans have been received for some of the lots in
Watten Ponds. Two were approved, modifications were requested on one and one was rejected.
It is anticipated construction will begin in the next several weeks.
The developer of the Watten Ponds project has requested a reduction in his Letter of Credit. This
is being held pending his repair of tree protection fencing where indicated by staff. This has not
been completed, therefore the Letter of Credit is being held and will not be released until he
complies.
Smithtown Meadows
.
Nielsen reported a letter will be sent within a day or two advising the developer that he is in default
of the required improvements aspect of the development agreement and, therefore, his Letter of
Credit will not be released. If the developer does not complete the work, the City will take this
over. The work remaining includes site restoration and landscaping.
Shady Island Bridge
.
Engineer Brown reported on the Shady Island Bridge. Construction is proceeding and half of the
bridge has been removed. During this time of construction, the bridge has been reposted for very
light loads. Brown noted the school district has complied by utilizing van transportation. He
noted refuse collection could be affected by this restriction, however, notices have been sent out to
keep the residents informed.
Brown noted emergency vehicles will be able to access the bridge. The Fire Department was
advised to travel slowly and there should not be a problem.
Brown reported in looking at alternatives for removing the old pilings, it may be necessary to close
the bridge to traffic for four hours. The residents will be notified and preparations will be made
relative to safety and emergency situations which could arise.
Acting Mayor Stover asked whether a temporary sign could be posted to inform the residents of
this closure. Brown stated a large road sign indicating the date and time will be posted. Notices
will be mailed as well.
Brown stated there is a concern for homeowners who heat with oil or LP gas and accommodations
will need to be made.
Councilmember Garfunkel questioned whether the four hour closure could expand into a larger
amount of time. Brown stated this will not be allowed to occur. Brown also stated alternatives
have been considered, however, they would add up to significant change orders.
B . Regional Forum of Local Officials
Hurm announced the Regional Forum of Local Officials will be held on Monday, September 29,
1997, at the Southshore Senior Community Center from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Agenda Item #3A - Boundary Markers for City Property North of
Silverwood Park
Several years ago the City removed from its trail plan a proposed turf trail between
Silverwood Park and Shady Hills Road. This was petitioned by neighbors in the area.
One of the Park Commission's priorities over the last several years has been to have
property markers placed along the City boundary so that we can easily identify where the
City property is. We will send the attached draft letter to neighbors in the area so they are
aware that survey crews will be in the area and placing 24 to 30 boundary markers.
The markers used will be 3 inch plates on the ground rather than stakes. Therefore, other
than the actual placement of the plates, there will be no intrusion near the yard areas of our
neighbors. The amount of the agreement with OSM is not to exceed $4,400.

Re: Marking of the City Property Adjacent to Your Property
Dear Resident:
.
On July 15, 1996 the City of Shorewood sent letters to property owners who are adjacent to publicly
owned land stating that the City was going to begin marking the property boundaries which define
these parcels (refer to attachment 1). Your property is one that is adjacent to one of these areas.
After a lengthy delay, theCity will begin to mark these properties with a survey marker. This marker
consists of a metal rod 24 inches in length with a metal disk which is approximately two and one half
inches in diameter and will have imprinted on the disk "City of Shorewood Park Property" This rod
and disk will be installed along the property boundary flush with the ground such that it will not
interfere with mowing or normal lawn care duties.
The City's surveyor, OSM and Associates will be out in the field installing these survey markers.
The installation of each marker should not take very long with little disturbance to the ground. .
If you have any questions regarding the installation of these monuments, do not hesitate to contact
either James Hurm, City Administrator at 474-3236, or Paul Hornby at OSM Associates at
595-5696.

Re: Monumentation of the WaterfordlSilverwood Nature Trail
Dear Larry:
We are writing to provide a proposal for surveying services for the monumentation of the
park property from SilvelWood Park to Broms Boulevard, adjacent to the Waterford
developments.
As we discussed, our proposal includes monumentation with a Bemtsen FENO drive-in
spike survey mark, 24-inches in length with an aluminum cap inscribed with .City of
Shorewood, Park Property" or similar marking. The tasks for survey marker installation
include placement of a marker at each point of deflection of the property line along each
side of the park property boundary and placement of intermediate points to allow for ease
of location for maintenance purposes. The following tasks are proposed for the installation
of 30 FENO markers:
Locate existing property monuments along the park property and replace them
with a Berntsen FENO marker at primary angle points of the park property
corridor.
Locate existing property monuments along the park property corridor and replace
them with a Bemtsen FENO marker at selected intermediate points.
Place select critical monuments for park property identiftcation (to a maximum of
four monuments) where the existing property monument is not found.
Order 30 Berntsen FENO monuments along with the installation tools for the 24.
inch marker.
Obtain the platting information required to locate the existing property monuments
and to place up to four monuments that are not found.
We propose to provide these tasked services, on a cost-plus, not to exceed basis, of
$4,400.

RE:
A Motion to Adopt a Resolution for 1997 Overlay Projects
The bid opening for this project is scheduled well after the deadline for the printing of the City
Council packet. Therefore, the original plan was to present the results of the bid tabulation for
award at the City Council meeting.
.
However, at the time of this report only one contractor had picked up plans to bid on. Staff's
inquiries to seek out other contractors for bidding has received feed back that this is a boom year for
contractors, and that their work schedule already full for the year.
If in the instance that there is still only one bid received, it would be recommended that the bids be
rejected and re let in March of 1998.
The results, and the appropriate resolution will be presented at Monday night's meeting.

RE: Sign Permit - Rapid Oil
FILE NO. Property - 19465 State Highway 7
Crosstown Sign Company, on behalf of Rapid Oil Company, has requested a sign permit
to replace the existing signage at 19465 State Highway 7. The applicant proposes an
approximately 5.5' x 6' wall sign for the east end of their building (see Exhibit A,
attached). They also propose a new pylon sign which measures 6.75' x 9.25' (see Exhibit
B).
.
Shorewood's Zoning Code allows businesses in the C-3, General Commercial District to
have as many as three signs, the total area of which can not exceed 10 percent of the area of
the building silhouette as viewed from the street. The Rapid Oil building silhouette
contains 660 square feet of area (see Exhibit C), resulting in an allowable sign area of 66
square feet.
The proposed wall sign contains 33 square feet and the pylon sign contains 62 square feet
for a total sign area of 95 square feet. In addition to too much area, the wall sign can not
extend above the roof, and the pylon sign must be limited to 20 feet in height, two feet
shorter than what is proposed.
Assuming that the applicant will opt for the more visible pylon sign and eliminate the wall
sign to comply with the Zoning Code, it is recommended that the permit for only the pylon
sign be approved subject to reducing its height to 20 feet.

Planning Director Nielsen suggested changing the order of the agenda for the benefit of those who
were in attendance relative to the discussion of Concept Plan of Planned Unit Development for
Senior Housing Community.
1. DISCUSS CONCEPT PLAN OF PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT FOR
SENIOR HOUSING COMMUNITY
.
Applicant:
Location:
Eagle Crest Northwest
25600 Highway 7 and 6140 Eureka Road
The Commission reviewed the motion of the September 2, 1997, Meeting of the Planning
Commission relative to this issue and made the following modifications and clarifications.
Commissioner Turgeon noted the reference to density range relates to the RIA and RIC zoning
areas and further discussion will be necessary to determine whether those units will be considered
whole or half units in a specific zoning district.
Commissioner Kolstad asked if there is any precedent for two zoning districts combining into one
project resulting in the two densities being combined and spread equally over the two areas.
Nielsen stated often times when a zoning boundary divides a single parcel, there are rules relative
to extending the zoning one way or the other. The zoning line cuts units 38 through 47 almost in
half. If the line is shifted to the west, even less of the units would be in the RIA portion of the
site.
Commissioner Lizee felt the units would need to be counted so that units 38, 39, 42, 43, 46, and
47 lie wholly within the R-1A district and units 37, 40, 41, 44, 45, and 48 lie wholly within the R-
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 16, 1997 - PAGE 2
1 C district with half of the l:lMS in the RL^~ district and half in the R1 C district since each unit is
being plotted with its own property.
Commissioner Kolstad asked what the impact would be of moving the units so they are completely
within the R1 C district. Nielsen explained most of the land for each of the units is under the
building.
Commissioner Kolstad believed the homeowner would own the property to the street. Nielsen
noted this was not his understanding. Council Liaison was in agreement with Commissioner
Kolstad. Commissioner Turgeon did not feel this would make a difference.
Nielsen felt it would be practical to count half of the lots in each zoning district.
Commissioner Kolstad noted the zoning ordinance refers to the number of residences in a
particular zoning district rather than the number of lots.
Commissioner Champa stated he was also in agreement with splitting the units between the two
zoning districts.
It was agreed: Density range is acceptable as long as it is in compliance with the
Shorewood Zoning Ordinance, staying within the RIA and Rl C zoning
guidelines; calculated with 19 units in the RIA district and 61 units in the RIC
district. Six units are split between the zoning districts and units 38, 39, 42, 43,
46, and 47 lie wholly within the R-1A district and units 37, 40, 41, 44, 45, and
48 lie wholly within the R-1C district half are iR RIC aRe half in RIA;
compliance with the MCWD drainage requirements in terms of quantity and
quality of stormwater run off; ponding must be adequate to handle impervious
surface; land swap between the park and the development can be legally
performed; trail system is integrated into the park (see report from Park
Commission Minutes of August 12, 1997); tree preservation and reforestation
requirements are met; ownership and maintenance of the internal streets needs to
be resolved to include parking and street width;
(
'"'"
.
Commissioner Kolstad questioned why it is acceptable to allow for a street which is narrower than
a normal residential street. Nielsen explained it is the recommendation of the Fire Marshall that the .
streets be designated as no parking although parking is allowed on public streets. Commissioner
Kolstad would like to allow some on-street parking on one side of the street. Commissioner Lizee
expressed concern this would encourage parking from individuals utilizing Freeman Park. A final
determination will be sought from the Fire Marshall relative to the 22-foot width of the street.
It was also agreed: Wetland delineation and compliance with wetland ordinance;
water flow determination; this particular project is one which is not intending to
have services and it is understood the age limitation will be 62 years;
Commissioner Turgeon inquired whether a younger spouse would be permitted. Nielsen stated the
current ordinance provides for a caregiver which is limited to 30 days. For a younger spouse to be
permitted, an ordinance amendment would be required. The consensus of the Commission was to
request the Council review this issue.
It was further agreed: Explore ways to maintain affordability as defined by
Shorewood and Metropolitan Council for the area;
.
.
)
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
SEPTEMBER 16,1997 - PAGE 3
Co~ssioner Kolstad noted this issue has to do with any resale of the property in which the price
could Increase and no longer be considered affordable. Commissioner Champa felt this referred to
up front costs such as park dedication. Nielsen commented the value will increase with inflation.
Generally the value of single family homes increases because of improvements and expansions
which are made to the home and the proposed units would not be able to be expanded.
Commissioner Kolstad suggested a deternHflation be made relati'/e to the reduction of fees for park
and sewer charges and whether they are mandatory or ayailable.
It was agreed: Investigate traffic impact and resolutions to the impact; location of
streets and pedestrian circulation to be addressed in the development stage.
It was also agreed the following will be deleted from the motion: "Location of public and
open common space; location and extent of residential and nonresidential land
uses; staging of development; special development criteria; and subject to review
of the Planning Commission on September 16, 1997."
Champa moved, Turgeon seconded accepting the revised wording of the motion.
Motion passed 5/0.
2. PUBLIC HEARING. APPEAL REGARDING ZONING VIOLATION
LETTER (Tabled at Planning Commission Meeting of September 2, 1997)
Appellant:
Location:
Howard's Point Marina
5400 Howard's Point Road
Commissioner Lizee stated she is in favor of the amendment as proposed. Commissioner Turgeon
commented on the 20 year requirement and questioned where the burden of proof lies. Nielsen
explained information would have to be gathered and it would ultimately be left to the City Council
to determine how long a sign has been in place.
Commissioner Kolstad questioned why an ordinance amendment is being considered. She also
asked why the Commission is attempting to accommodate the marina. Commissioner Champa felt
it to be a safety issue and the subject sign serves its purpose.
Commissioner Kolstad stated the City has a very clear ordinance. She expressed concern there
would be additional requests for changes to the ordinance.
Commissioner Lizee felt this to be a safety and aesthetics issue. She felt there to be a need for a
directional sign given the number of residents who look for the marina.
Commissioner Champa pointed out the sign has become a part of Shorewood and it is used as a
directional point. He also stated there are other areas in the city which have signs located in the
right of way areas.
Commissioner Turgeon felt this to be a way to reach a compromise which takes the advertisement
effect out of the sign and makes it a simple directional sign noting the location of the marina.
Commissioner Kolstad did not believe there to be an overriding justification for changing the
ordinance. She stated an amendment could prompt more requests for changes. Commissioner
Turgeon stated that overall she has no problem with the amendment other than the 20 year
requirement.

3. PUBLIC HEARING . ZONING ORDINANCE TEXT AMENDMENT
RELA TIVE TO SIGNS (Tabled at Planning Commission Meeting of
September 2, 1997)
Applicant:
Location:
Evangelical Lutheran Church of Our Savior
23290 State Highway 7
** Agenda Items 3 and 4 were considered simultaneously. **
Commissioner Kolstad stated Shore wood is a rural residential area and felt the proposed signs are
too commercial for the area. In addition, she stated she would not be in favor of internally lit
signs. .
Commissioner Turgeon stated she would not be opposed to the sign for the senior center if it were
in front of the building or on the building. She was not in favor of it being located on County
Road 19.
Chair Pisula stated he would not mind having the sign located on Highway 7, but he would not
want the sign located on Smithtown Road.
Planning Director Nielsen stated the language will read, "Such freestanding sign may be indirectly
illuminated and shall not exceed a height of eight feet (8') above grade."
With respect to the wall sign being requested by the church, that sign would also be indirectly
illuminated. Internally lit signs will not be permitted.
illumination time was discussed and Commissioner Lizee suggested the illumination time not be
allowedfrom the hours of 12 midnight to 6:00 a.m. be set from 12:00 midnight to 6:00 a.m. It .
was also suggested the illumination time be consistent with the Waterford Shopping Center which
is 11 :00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m.
Commissioner Champa did not feel there should be a time limitation on the signs. Commissioner
Kolstad felt someone could come in for an exception if there is a problem. Commissioner Turgeon
felt if there is light located around a building, there would be a reduction in vandalism.
With respect to the size of the signage, Nielsen explained the church is proposing a sign which
would be 2.5 percent of the total building silhouette. The proposed amendment would allow for a
sign which shall not exceed 5 percent of the building silhouette. The Commission was in
agreement relative to the 5 percent provision.
Lizee moved, Turgeon seconded approving the zoning text amendment relative to
signs for the Lutheran Church of Our Savior, 23290 State Highway 7, with
Planning Director Nielsen's recommended changes, deleting "or internally" from
subsection (b); and adding "Section II. Indirectly illuminated." Motion passed
5/0.

Greer, Peggy - Simple Subdivision
405 (97.21)
BACKGROUND
.
Ms. Peggy Greer owns the property located at 6045 Chaska Road (see Site Location map -
Exhibit A, attached). Ms. Greer has requested approval to subdivide the property into three
lots, as shown on Exhibit B. The property is zoned R-1 C, Single-Family Residential, contains
approximately 2.77 acres of land, and is occupied by Ms. Greer's home.
The landis characterized by a large hill on its north half, dropping 38 feet to a wetland area to
the south. The high ground is substantially wooded. Ms. Greer's home is located
approximately in the center of the site, approximately 50 feet back from the right-of-way of
Chaska Road. It is the applicant's intent to remove the existing home and build a new home on
the southerly of the three proposed lots. An old garage located south of the house has already
been demolished.
The applicant has configured the lots to take advantage of the three best locations on the
property for home sites. A conservation easement restricting building and tree removal at the
rear of Lot 2 has been proposed for the benefit of the proposed building location on Lot 1.
ANAL YSIS/RECOMlVIENDATION
With one exception the three proposed lots meet or exceed the minimum requirements of the
R -1 C zoning district. Lot 2 is only 93 feet wide at the building line, whereas the Zoning Code
requires 100 feet. This is easily remedied by shifting the lot line between Lots 1 and 2 slightly
to the north.
The applicant proposes to use the existing driveway for her hometo access both Lots 1 and 2.
This will minimize site alteration and should be encouraged. A use and maintenance agreement
must be prepared by her attorney. Access to Lot 3 will be located over an existing driveway
where the old garage was situated. This too will minimize site alteration.

Re: Greer, Peggy
Simple Subdivision
1 August 1997
The applicant's plans show the 50-foot setback from the wetland area on the south side of the
property. Since no tree removal results from the subdivision itself, tree preservation and
replacement should be addressed with individual building permits for the lots.
It is recommended that the applicant's request be approved subject to the following:
1 . The applicant's surveyor must prepare legal descriptions for the three lots, as modified by
the suggested shift in lot lines. Legal descriptions are also required for drainage and utility
easements which are required, 10 feet on each side of each side and rear lot line.
2. The applicant's attorney must prepare deeds to the City for drainage and utility easements.
3 . The applicant's attorney must prepare a use and maintenance agreement for the portion of
the driveway which will be shared by Lots 1 and 2.
4. The applicant must provide an up-to-date (within 30 days) title opinion for the property for
review by the City Attorney.
5 . Items 1 - 4 above must ~e completed before the request is scheduled for Council review
and within 30 days.
6. The property is subject to the following charges:
a.
b.
Park dedication fee:
Local sanitary sewer access charge:
$2000
$2000
Note: Credit is allowed for the lot with the existing house on it.
6. The applicant must record the division within 30 days of her receipt of the resolution
approving the request.

and
"
WHEREAS, the project is proposed as elderly housing, pursuant to the requirements of
1201.03 Subd. 20 of the City Code; and
WHEREAS, the Applicant's request was reviewed by the City Planner, and his
recommendations were duly set forth in memoranda to the Planning Commission dated
31 July and 29 August 1997, which memoranda are on file at City Hall, and
. WHEREAS, the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on 5 August 1997 and
at its regular meeting of 2 September 1997 recommended approval of a Concept Plan for the 80-
unit Shorewood Senior Housing P.D.D.; and

commented on the Applicant's Concept Plan; and
WHEREAS, the Applicant's request was considered by the City Council at its regular

2. Section 1201.06, Subd. 3. regarding special procedures for the establishment of a
P.D.D. by conditional use permit;
3. Section 1201.03 Subd. 20. regarding the special requirements for elderly housing
projects;
4. Section 1201.25 Subd. 6.(b)(1) regarding the purpose of concept plan approval.
D. Approval of the Concept Plan is not intended, nor does it act to grant approval of a

1201.25, Subd. 6.(c) and (d).
The parties acknowledge that the matter of density in terms of the total number of units has
specifically not been resolved at this point; and the concept plan approval should not be
construed as acceptance of any level of density above the level which would be allowed on
the property under its existing zoning and without regard to its use for senior housing.
The City reserves the right to establish the density levels deemed appropriate by it in its
reasonable judgment, and to disapprove further approvals of the development if such
density levels have not been achieved.
~
The application of Eaglecrest Northwest, Inc. for approval of the Concept Plan for the
Shorewood Senior Housing P.D.D. as set forth above is hereby approved.
Adopted by the City Council of the City of Shorewood this 13th day of October 1997.

Request to abate Water Trunk Charge assessment and to refund amounts
paid on such assessments
Mr. Brian Fredrickson, 26115 Birch Bluff Road, has written a letter to the City requesting
that a water trunk charge assessed in 1995 be abated and that the amount he has paid in
installments on the assessment be refunded to him. A copy of the letter is attached.
According to the policy in place at the time, a trunk charge was assessed against a new lot
created through a subdivision of Mr. Fredrickson's original lot. Mr. Fredrickson states in
his letter that: 1.) he agreed to pay the trunk charge and petitioned to have it assessed
against the property; 2.) he expected at the time that he would receive the benefit of city
water within a reasonable time frame, but no longer believes this to be true; and 3.) the lot
was created during a very limited window of time in which the charge was in place. Mr.
Fredrickson feels that the policy creating and imposing the trunk charge has been changed
to limit the charge to parcels having the availability to water, and that water is not expected
to be available to his lot within a reasonable period. He further states that the conditions for
. the imposition of the trunk charge in the new ordinance do not apply in his case.
The City has assessed trunk charges on a limited number of parcels where city water was
not available. Staff recently reviewed the assessment roles and found only 2 other such
parcels which were assessed trunk charges.
In order to remain consistent with current policy, given the limited scope of this situation,
the City Council may wish to consider the abatement of the trunk charges against these
three parcels and to refund amounts already paid on these charges. A draft resolution has
been prepared and is attached for this consideration. It should be noted that should the
Council take this action, in the event that city water is made available to these parcels in the
future, charges will be assessed against the parcels according to the policy in place at that
time.
.If you have any questions relative to this matter, please feel free to call me prior to
Monday's meeting.

00 18 and 31-117-23-24-00 19, were created through a platting request of Mike Lazeretti; and,

trunk charge of $5,000.00 each, which charges were assessed against the lots at the request of the
property owners; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council has revised said policy so as to not require water trunk charges be .
assessed against lots not having water available to them; and,
WHEREAS, the aforementioned lots do not have water available to them; and,
WHEREAS, Brian Fredrickson has requested the abatement of the water trunk charges and the
refund of amounts paid thereon; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council wishes to remain consistent with the application and administration
of its policies.

follows:

31-117-23-24-0018 and 31-117-23-24-0019 are hereby abated.
2. Y That all amounts paid upon such water trunk charges be refunded to the owners of said
property.

assessments will be made upon such lots according to the policies in place at that time.

Dear Mr Nielsen:
I have been following the recent changes to Ordinance 322 regarding water trunk charges and
connection fees and request that the actions below be taken.
.
1) The trunk charge that I am currently paying in installments for a newly subdivided lot be abated.
2) The total of $848.16 that I have already paid be refunded.
Regarding the second action, please consider the following:
. I agreed to pay a trunk charge at a point in time when I fully expected to receive benefit within a
reasonable timeframe. At this time I have received no benefit and no longer expect to.
. My single-lot subdivision was finalized during a very brief window of time when the original
ordinance was in tact; had I completed the subdivision just months earlier or later, I would not be
paying a charge.
. The new ordinance clearly states that charges will be due under three conditions - water being
available, subdivision request for water, or developer's request to pre-pay. None of these apply in
my case.
.

Proposed Ordinance Amendment
This proposed ordinance will allow for the adoption of the Tree Preservation Policy into
our code by reference. It also establishes an enforcement and fine mechanism.
A third issue which was previously, briefly discussed by the City Council is not included
in this ordinance amendment, but should be discussed again by the Council. That issue is
whether or not to consider an administrative sanction section. Please review the "draft for
discussion only" proposed Section 104.04, Administrative Offenses which is in the packet
material.

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING

of air quality, reduction of noise pollution, control of urban heat island effect, protection
and increase of property values, protection of privacy, energy conservation through
natural insulation providing habitat for birds and other wildlife and conservation and
enhancement of the City's physical and aesthetic environment. The purpose of these
regulations is to preserve and protect significant trees or stands of trees whose loss due .
to land disturbances associated with the process of development or construction would
adversely effect the City's existing natural resources. The regulations also recognize
that despite the best efforts of the City and developers and property owners, trees will
occasionally be lost in the development and construction process. In such instances,
these regulations will require replacement of trees.
Subd. 2 - Regulations. In furtherance of the purpose of this section, the City Council shall, by
resolution adopt and may, from time-to-time, amend resolutions providing for tree
preservation and replacement in situations involving development or construction.
Subd. 3 - Penalty. Enforcement. Failure to comply with the provisions of such regulations shall
constitute a violation of this Code; and the City shall proceed to enforcement either in
accordance with Section 104.02.
Section 2. This ordinance is effective the date following its publication.

TREE PRESERVATION AND REPLACElVfENT POLICY
CITY OF SHOREWOOD
1. Purllose. It is the policy of the City of Shorewood to recognize and preserve
existing natural resources of the community. In its effort to maintain the wooded character
of the area, the City fmds that trees provide numerous benefits including, but not limited to:
stabilization of the soil by the prevention of erosion and sedimentation, reduction of storm.
water runoff, improvement of air quality, reduction of noise pollution, control of urban
heat island effect, protection and increase of property values, protection of privacy, energy
conservation through natural insulation, providing habitat for birds and other wildlife and
conservation and enhancement of the city's physical and aesthetic environment.
The purpose of this policy is to preserve and protect significant trees or stands of trees
whose loss due to land disturbances associated with the process of development or
construction would adversely affect the character of neighborhoods, subdivisions, public
or semipublic projects and commercial developments. This policy also recognizes that,
despite the best efforts of the City and property owners, trees may occasionally be lost in
the development or construction process. In. those cases tree replacement or reforestation
shall be required.
II. Applicabilitv. This policy shall apply to any person or entity that would
disturb land areas and impact significant trees or stands of trees in neighborhoods,
subdivisions, commercial building developments, public and semipublic projects such as
streets, utilities and parks whether disturbed by a public agency or private developer; except
when the City Council may waive these requirements where there would be greater public
need for the project than to meet the requirements of this policy. The terms and provisions
of this Policy, in conjunction with the Shorewood Tree Preservation Ordinance No.-,
shall apply to all activity which requires the issuance of a Land Disturbance Permit.,
III. Definitions. All words in this Policy have their customary dictionary
definition except as specifically defined herein. The word "shall" is mandatory and the
words "should" and "may" are permissive. Technical terms used in this Policy are defined
in Appendix A.
Buildable Area: The portion of a lot which is not located within any minimum required
yard, landscape strip/area, or buffer, that portion of a lot wherein a building may be
located, as prescribed by the Shorewood Zoning Code.
DBH (Diameter-at-Breast-Height): A standard measure of tree size, whereby a tree trunk
diameter is measured in inches at a height of four and one-half feet (4 1/2') above ground.
If a tree splits into multiple trunks below four and one-half feet (41/2'), then the trunk is
measured at its most narrow point beneath the split.
Dripline: A vertical line extending from the outer swface of a tree's branch tips down to the
ground.
.
.
Land Disturbance Permit: .An official authorization issued by the Zoning Administrator,
allowing defoliation or alteration of the site for the commencement of any construction.
Protection Zone: All lands that fall outside the buildable area of a parcel.
9/95
.
.
'''';; . '-~ ....
Significant Trees: Any healthy long-lived hardwood deciduous tree measuring eight inches
(8") DBH or gre:ner. any healthy softwood deciduous tree measuring twelve inches (l2'j
DBH or greater. or any healthy coniferous tree measuring eight feet (8') or more in height.
Box-elder, cottonwood. and willow trees shall not be considered to be significant trees.
Soecimen Tree or Stand: .A.ny tree or grouping of trees which has been determined to be of
a high value by the Zoning Administrator because of its species, size, age, or other
professional criteria. .
S tnlcture: Anything which is buil~ constructed or erected; an edifice or building of any
kind or any piece of work: artificially built up or composed of parts jointed together in some
definite manner whether temporary or permanent in character.
Tree: Any self supporting woody plant, usually having a single woody trunk~ and a
potential DBH of two inches (2") or more.

r:::;--:
.
.
b.
This financial guarantee shall be held for at le3St two (2) full
growing seasons beyond the date of installation of the last
replacement tree or beyond the last date of site activity that
may impact tree survivaL
In addition to a. above subdividers shall provide a financial
guarantee as part of the development contract co ensure

graded lot with at least one (1) significant tree to be saved
and each custom graded lot with at least one (1) significant
tree, the subdivider shall pay a fee asestablisb.ed in Chapter
1302 of the Shorewood Cicy Code.
Tnis financial guarantee will be released upon 1) certification
in writing by the subdivider's forester or landscape architect
indicating that tree protection measures were installed on
mass graded locs and tree replacement is completed, if
necessary andlor 2) the builders have posted security for the
custom graded locs.
12. Fmancial Guarantee - Builders.
a. Homebuilders shall provide a financial guarantee as part of
the building permit application to ensure protection of all
significant trees to be saved. For all lots with at least one (1)
significant tree to be saved the builder shall provide a letter
of credit or cash escrow as established by Cnapter 1302 of
the Cicy Code.
b.
Prior to the issuance of a certificate of occupancy or release
of the tree protection guarantee, the builder's forester or

the tree protection measures identified on the tree
preservation plan were installed from the start of
construction to the end of construction and tree replacement,
is completed, if necessary.
c. The Building Official will monitor the tree protection
measures at the time of routine inspections.
d. Builders are liable for subcontractors which destroy or
damage significant trees which were indicated to be saved on
the individual lot tree preservation plan.
V. Tree & Site Related Disturbances.
G /0 .;
A. Tree protection zones, specimen trees or stands of trees designated to be
saved must be protected from the following damages which may occur
during all phases of land disturbance and construction processes. Memods
of tree protection and disturbance prevention are provided in Section \'1.
1 . Direct physical root damage
2. Indirect root damage
--- ,. ...,
1.:-"1rl...t.C ~c. ::~C\V71 ::SIUfDance
B. Direct physical root damage most frequently occurs durina site cfear.ina and
grading operations, where transport or feeder roots are c;t, tom. or ~
removed.
1. Transport and feeder roots tend to tangle and fuse among the roots
of adjacent trees. The removal of trees with heavy machinery along
the outer periphery of a tree save area causes root damage.
2. The most substantial form of root damage for all root types occurs in
the form of cut roots. Roots are cut in grade reduction, or from
trenching for underground utilities, sanitary sewer, or storm sewer
lines.
3.
A more subtle type of root damage is the loss of feeder roots.
Feeder roots normally occur within the organic layer, and the
surface four inches (4") of top soil, subsequently, these roots can be
easily damaged by the track action from a single bulldozer pass.
The stripping of top soil within a tree's critical root zone can totally
eliminate its feeder root system.
.
C. Indirect root damage through site modification can result from positive
grade changes, temporary storage of fill material, the sedimentation of
erosion materials, soil compaction, and soil chemical changes.
1. Positive grade changes from fill and sedimentation causes a decrease
in soil oxygen levels. An increase in soil carbon dioxide and other
toxic gases can also occur, leading to large areas of anaerobic
conditions. Anaerobic soil conditions cause a decrease in the root
respiration process which is essential for the uptake and transport of
minerals and nutrients.
2.
Anaerobic soil conditions are also produced by soil compaction, the
increase in soil bulk density with a decrease in soil spore space.
. Compacted soil is also impervious to root penetration, and thus
inhIbits root development. Soil compaction is generally caused by
the weight and vibrations of heavy machinery, vehicle parking, and
the storage of fill andlor construction materials within the critical
root zones of trees.
.
3 . Changes in soil chemistry will adversely affect tree survival. The
most. frequent occurrence is the change (decrease) in soil acidity by
concrete washout. The leakage or spillage of toxic materials such as
fuels or paints can be fatal for trees.
D. Trunk and crown disturbances are generally mechanical in nature and are
either caused directly by clearing and grading machinery, or indirectly by
debris being cleared and falling into trees marked for protection.
1 . Common forms of damage include stripped bark and cambium. split
trunks, and broken limbs.
2. Damage also occurs from the posting of signs such as building
permits, or survey markers on trees.
;\'0. ::
3. Indirect damage can be caused by the placement ofbtim holes or
debris fires too close to trees. The possible range of damages
inciude scorched trunks with some cambial dieback. the loss of
foliage due to evaporative heat stress (leaf desiccation), and
completely burned trunks and crowns.
VI. ivlethods of Tree Protection.
A. Planning and considerations. Tree space is the most critical factor in tree
protection throughout the development process. The root system of trees
can easily extend beyond the dripline of the tree canopy (Figure 1). Toe
rooe system within the dripline re;:ion is generally considered to be the
protected root zone. DistUrbance within this zone can directly affect a tree's
chances of survival. With reference to root zones, the following standards
shall apply:
1.
Toe use of tree save islands and stands is encouraged rather than the
protection of individual (nonspecimen) trees scattered throughout a
site. This will facilitate ease .in overall site organization as related to
tree protection.
.
2. The protective zone of specimen trees or stands of trees or otherwise
desi!IDated tree save areas shall include no less than the total area
beneath the tree(s) canopy as dermed by the farthest canopy dripline
of the tree(s). In some instances, the Zoning Administrator may
require a protective zone in excess of the area defined by the tree's
dripline.
3 . Layout of the project site utilicy and grading plans shall
accommodate the required tree protective zones. Utilities muSt be
placed along corridors between tree protective zones.
.
Construction site activities such as parking, material sto~o-e,
concrete washout, hole placement, etc., shall be arranged so as to
prevent disturbances within tree protective zones.
5. Alterations to the protective zone of the specimen trees or stands of
trees must be approved by the Zoning Administrator.
4.
B . Protective Barriers.
1. Active protective tree fencing shall be installed along the ourer edge
of and completely surrounding the critical root zones of all specimen
trees or stands of trees, or otherwise designated tree protective
zones, prior to any building construction.
2. These fences will be a minimum four feet (4') high. Four-feet (4')
high orange polyechylene laminar safecy fencing is acceptable
(Figure 2).
3. Passive forms of tree protection may be utilized to delineate tree save
are:1S which are remote from are:1S of land disturbance. Tnese are:1S
must be completely surrounded with continuous rope or flagging
i) /0,
(heavy mil - minimum four inches (4'j wide). All passive tree
procection must be accompanied by "Keep Out" or "Tree Save"
signage (Figure 3).
4. All tree protection zones should be designated as such with "Tree
Save Area" signs posted visibly on all sides of the fenced area.
These signs are intended to inform subcontractors of the tree
protection process. Signs requesting subcontractor cooperation and
compliance with tree protection standards are recommended for site
entrances.
c.
5 . All tree fencing barriers must be installed prior to and maintained
throughout building construction and should not be removed until
completion of construction and until landscaping is installed.
Encroachment. Most trees can tolerate only a small percentage of critical
root zone loss. If encroachment is anticipated within the critical root zones
of specimen trees, stands of trees, or otherwise designated tree protective
zones, the following preventive measures shall be employed:
1 . Clearing Activities: Roots often fuse and tangle amongst trees. The
removal of trees adjacent to tree save areas can cause inadvertent
damage to the protected trees. Wherever possible, it is advisable to
cut minimum two foot (2') trenches (e.g., with a "ditch-witch")
along the limits of land disturbances, so as to cut, rather than tear,
roots. Directionally felling trees outward into disturbance areas and
grinding stumps is also acceptable.
.
2.
It is very strongly suggested that all clearing in oak: stands be done
before May 1st and after July 1st of each season. Tills will help to
prevent the inadvertent wounding of trees with the consequential
spread of oak: wilt. If clearing has to be done at this time, all stumps
and wounded trees shall have the wound areas painted thoroughly
with a tree paint. To be effective, the painting shall be performed
within the same day of cutting. Should oak: wilt get started as a
result of construction during the months of May and June, then the
developerJbuilder shall pay for all additional on-site oak: wilt control
measures needed to control the disease.
.
3 . Where the Zoning Administrator has determined that irreparable
damage has occurred to trees within tree protective zones, they must
be removed and replaced by the developer /builder as provided in
Section IV (B)9.
D. Reclamation of the Growing Site. A tree's ability for adequate root
development. and ultimately its chances for survival, are improved with
reclamation of the growing site. Whenever possible, the soil should be
brought back to its natural grade. Unnecessary fill, erosion sedimentation,
concrete washouT:, and construction debris should be removed. When
machinery is required for site improvement, it is recommended that a
"rubber-tired skid steer loader" or similar light weight rubber tire vehicle be
used so as to minimize soil compaction.

CITY OF SHOREWOOD
APPENDIX A
Te~hnicaI Terms:
Cambium: Tile tissue widtin the woody portion of trees and shrubs which gives rise co the woody
water and nutrient conducting system. and the energy substrate transport system in trees.
Cambial dieback: The irreparable radial of vertical inrenuption of a tree's cambium. usually caused
by mechanical damage, such as "skimring bark:", or from e.''(cessive heat.
.
Coniferous: Belonging to the group of cone-be:lring evergreen trees or shrubs.
Deciduous: Not persistent; the shedding of leaves ammalIy.
Feeder roots: A complex system of small annual roots growing ourward and predomiriantIy
upward from the system of '1:rnnsport rodts.... These roots branch four or more times to form fans
or mats of thousands of fine~ short., non-woody tips. Many of these smail roots and their multiple
tips are 0.2 co Imm or less in diameter, and less than I co 2mm long. These roots constitute the
major fraction of a tree's root system surface area, and are the primary sites of absorption of water
and nutrients.
Major W oodv Roots: FIrSt order tree roots originating at the "'root collar" and growing horizontally
in the soil co a distance of between 3 and 15 feet from the tree's trUnk. These roots branch and
decrease in diameter to give rise to "rope roots". The primary function of major woody roots
include anchorage, srrucroral support., the stonl:::cre of food reserves, and the transport of minerals
and nutrients.
Protected Root Zone: Tile rootin~ area of a cree established to limit root disturbances. Tills zone is
generally defined as a circle with a radius extending from a tree's trunk to a point no less than the
furthest crown dripIine. Disturbances widtin this zone will direc--Jy affect a tree's chance for
survival.
.
Roar Collar: Tile point of attachment of major woody roots to the tree trUI1k, usually at or near the
groundline and associated with a marked swelling of the tree trUnk.
Root Respiration: An active process occurring throughout the feeder root system of trees. and
involving the consumption of oxygen and sugars with the release of energy and carbon-dioxide.
Root respiration facilitateS the uptake and transPOrt of minerals and nutrients essential for tree
survival. .
RODe Roots: An extensive network of woody second order roots arising from major woody roots.
occtlI'f.ll1g within the SUIface 12 to 18 inches of local soils~ and with an average size ranging from
.25 to 1 inch in diameter. The primary function of rope roots is the transpOrt of water and
nutrients. and the storage of food reserves.
Soil Comoaction: A change in soil physical properties which includes an increase in soil wei~l1t
per unit volume, and a decrease in soil pore space. Soil compaction is caused by repeated
vibrations, frequent traffic and weight. As related to tree roots, compacted soil can cause physical
root damage, a decrease in soil oxygen levels with an increase in toxic gases, and can be
impervious co new root development.
Tr::msvorr Roms: Tue system or framework or tree roots commised of m~ior roars cmQ race rooes.

FROM:
DATE:
RE:
Consideration of a Motion to Adopt a Resolution Approving Change Order 1 for the
Shady Island Bridge, City Project 95-19
On July 14, 1997, the City Council awarded the contract for the reconstruction of the Shady Island
Bridge to Jay Brothers, Incorporated.
.
At that time, I stated that there were concerns with regard to the retaining walls along the approach
roadways that still needed to be addressed. As the Council may recall, the retaining walls were
proposed to avoid encroachment into the floodplain of Lake Minnetonka.
During the final review process, staff had raised concerns with regard to the long term stability. of a
modular block retaining wall as the strong forces of ice from the lake work to deteriorate these walls.
The bottom course of the wall will actually be slightly under the normal water level of Lake
Minnetonka. Undoubtedly, any wall placed in this area of the lake is going to have to withstand
severe forces as the ice from the lake heaves against these walls.
It was decided during the bidding process that best way to proceed would be to discuss options
available with the contractor, once the project was let. During the award of the project, staff put the
Council on notice that that we would expect to see a change. order to the contract to address this
Issue.
After much discussion of the alternatives available with the contractor, it was agreed that the most
cost effective alternative over the life of the bridge will be to construct the wall from very large
rocks, versus a flat surfaced or modular block retaining wall. A boulder wall has enough irregularity
in the surfaces that any shifts in the boulders (which will happen) will not be as detrimental to the
stability and aesthetics of the wall. In addition, the large size of the boulders being used will aid in
resisting the ice pressures which will attack theses walls.

Change Order NO.1
City Project 95-19
OSM Comm. No. 96038.00
Dear Mr. Brown:
Enclosed for your review is Change Order No.1 for the referenced project. This
Change Order provides for the substitution of two foot to four foot diameter field stone
for the concrete modular block included under item number 29 in the original contract
proposal form.
This change in retaining wall material is proposed to reduce the long term maintenance
requirements of the wall. The concern during the design phase of this project was that
annual maintenance would probably be required to re-stack a portion of the proposed
modular block retaining wall because it is likely that ice flow pressures will displace the
block. The field stone wall is proposed in this change order to consist of two to four
foot diameter field stones, the larger stones placed as the bottom course and the
smaller stones to provide uniform top elevation by filling in gaps between the lower
layers. This change order will result in a project cost increase of about $6,982.50.
We recommend approval of Change Order NO.1 primarily to reduce long term
maintenance requirements required to retain the integrity of the modular block wall
proposed in the original plans.
If you have any questions regarding this Change Order please do not hesitate to call
me at 595-5696.
Sincerely,
ORR.SCHELEN.MA VERON

You are always talking about the snowmobiles not obeying the rules on the trails - you
need to enforce it with your bicyclists and your runners. They come running through onto
the main roads without so much as a look. Either put bigger stop signs on the trails or have
your police start enforcing those, especially on Smithtown and Eureka and Strawberry. I
have almost hit bicyclists twice and runners.
Thursday, October. 2, 1997
Yes, I have a suggestion for your next publication, and that is you explain the role of the
Metropolitan Council, how large they are, what their budget is, what their authority they
have over say our village, Shorewood, what the salaries are, why do we need them or why
did we need them and they went out of existence, and do they have the power to levy
taxes? it would be a good research and be interesting reading. I thank you.

FROM:
DATE:
RE:
Shady Island Bridge - Extended Construction Hours
The City's policy on working hours is as follows:
. Weekdays 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Saturdays 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Sundays No work allowed
To date, the contractor for the Shady Island Bridge is on schedule with the bridge reconstruction
project. As originally scheduled, the actual bridge structure is to be up on October 31, 1997. As
. always, this is dependent upon the weather.
In discussion with the contractor, they are admittedly a bit shaken by all of the predictions that have
come to light for the November weather forecasts. EL Nino has surfaced within all of the recent
long term predictions and is predicted to produce high snowfall amounts in early November and on
through December. As such, the contractor has requested permission to work on Sundays to insure
that the bridge is completed in time for November 1st.
A polling of a few of the Shady Island residents indicates that the residents would be appreciative of
the contractors extra efforts to complete the bridge. Even if this means working on Sundays.
Staff is recommending that if the contractor chooses to work on Sundays, that the hours be limited
to the same schedule as the normal Saturday hours. Under the current City policy, the Director of
Public Works has the authority to permit work beyond these hours, where appropriate.
.
I would be interested in any comments or concerns from the City Council. Otherwise, I will grant
the contractor permission to work on Sundays within the limited hours. In addition, a notice will be
sent to the residents notifying them of the change, and to call with any questions or concerns they
might have.

Re: 1998 Fourth of July Celebration
Dear City Administrators and Commander of American Legion Post:
Since 1987, I have been involved with the Fourth of July celebration here in
Excelsior and each of your cities and the American Legion Post has been integral
in supporting that continuing celebration. This year's event was the best
attended ever. The event, however, is unique amongst those sponsored by the
Excelsior Area Chamber of Commerce insofar as there is no practical way to
charge admission or sufficiently fund the event through the sale of permits to sell
goods. Consequently, the Chamber of Commerce has relied on your Cities and
the American Legion's donation (approximately $6,500.00 total), that of general
public cash donations (approximately $2.500.00). contribution from the Chamber
of Commerce foot race (approximately $1,500.00), and miscellaneous Chamber
funding deVices $2,500.00. The remainder has been donations from local area
businesses. Financial support from local area businesses. however, has grown
difficult to obtain.
This area, unlike our neighboring community of Chanhassen, does not have a
retail and industrial base which can be tapped for considerable financial
jF/ I B
KELLY LAW OFFICES
-2-
contribution to offset the cost of the fireworks display and the attendant, police.
sanitation and music expenses which total approximately $18.000.00.
The Excelsior Area Chamber of Commerce faced with two years of deficits in
conjunction with this event will be taking under consideration whether or not the
Chamber should withdraw as the financial underwriter of the event. ObViously.
the Chamber of Commerce cannot afford to sustain repeated losses in conjunction
with this community-wide celebration.
The Chamber is of the opinion that this event is valuable to the community and
serves families. business and the general image of the area as a whole. The
ownership of the event, however. needs to be broadened and a new fundraising
committee established that will bring renewed energy to the problem of funding
the event.
Given that your community or organization has taken a particular and consistent
interest in supporting the event. the Chamber requests that you consider
appointing a representative to a new governing body for the management of the
Fourth of July celebration. This committee should be selected and organized not
later than December 1 st so as to proVide adequate time to make the solicitations
and plans for the 1998 event. We. therefore. ask that you consider two courses
of action:
.
1. Agreeing to increase your own funding of the event for 1998; and
2. Show your support for the event by naming a person or persons from
your community or organization to organize and meet the fundraising
needs necessary to hold this event.
We. at the Excelsior Area Chamber of Commerce look forward to hearing from you
on this issue. Your reply not later than October 10th would be most appreciated.
.
Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely.
