Inc. A resolution is attached for your consideration. Agenda Item #3B: The Environmental Services of the Metropolitan Council has established a grant and loan program for inflow and infiltration projects.

Staff will give a description of the program for which the funding is being applied for under staff reports. Agenda Item #3C: Carrie Halvorson, 4495 Enchanted Lane, requests additional time to comply with a zoning violation notice requiring that nonconforming docks on her property be removed. The Planning Director recommends approval. Agenda Item #3D: This resolution makes the appointment of Donald Kronberg as the American Legion representative on the Shore wood Park Foundation Board of Directors.

Agenda Item #3E: This motion approves Shorewood's annual contribution of $1,000 to the Excelsior Fourth of July fireworks display. This amount has been budgeted (Line 51-53 in the City Council Department budget). Agenda Item #6A: This resolution contains fmdings of fact, concluding in approval of a setback variance for Richard Hoyt to keep a deck which was built too close to Christmas Lake. While the resolution was prepared based upon a 3-2 vote of the Council, adoption requires a four-fifths vote._ A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore Executive Summary for City Council Agenda of June 10, 1996 Page 2 of 2 Afienda Item #6B: Stephen and Lucinda Larson propose to divide their property at 20435 Radisson Road into three lots. The Planning Director recommends approval of the plat. with revisions. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to approve the plat subject to staff recommendations. The Planning Commission also asked that the City Attorney render a legal opinion as to whether the Larsons' right to use the infamous Lot lIon Christmas Lake will extend to the two new lots. Please note that the findings of fact listed on the agenda is not necessary for a preliminary plat. The direction to staff should be to prepare a resolution approving the preliminary plat. Approval of the request requires a simple majority vote. Afienda Item #6C: Kevin Johns requests a conditional use permit to build an addition to his attached garage which brings the total amount of accessory space at 26890 Edgewood Road - over 1200 square feet. After considerable discussion regarding past zoning violations on the property the Planning Commission agreed with the Planning Director's recommendation to approve the C.U.P. The motion is to direct staff to prepare findings of fact which will require a four-fifths vote for approval. Afienda Item #6D: New Horizons, Inc. has submitted plans for a day care facility. The site was specifically designated as such in the P.U.D. The plans meet all of the requirements. Staff and Planning Commission recommend approval subject to minor revisions in their landscape plans. Approval requires a simple majority vote. Afienda Item #7: Vernon Faaberg objects to a zoning violation notice directing him to remove an unlawful nonconforming dock on property he owns next to his homestead parcel at 4340 Enchanted Drive. He feels that a covenant recorded in 1958 supersedes the City's dock regulations which allow docks only where a home exists. The City Attorney advises us that private covenants do not supersede the City's rules. Staff recommends that the dock in question be removed within 15 days. Afienda Item #8: This item approves the plans and specifications and authorizes advertisement for bid for the Eureka north watermain improvement project and the Smithtown Road (southern link) watermain project.

"A Motion Approving the Extension of the Filing of the Final Plat - McCarty Addition." B. "A Motion Approving a Block Party Request on Glen Road for June 27, 1996 from 6:00 to 10:00 p.m.", Applicants: Elaine & Kent Adams. C. "A Motion Approving the Appeal and Request for Extension 0 f Deadline to Comply with Notice to Remove." Dan Ohland, 25070 Smithtown Road. 4. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR Dennis Jabs, 20915 Radisson Inn Road, appeared representing the residents of the Christmas Lake Homeowners' Association. Mr. Jabs requested the Council to consider an ordinance clarifying the regulation of one vehicle per parking stall at the Christmas Lake access. He noted there has been a significant increase in boat traffic on the lake which has added to the congestion. The Homeowners' Association would like to encourage stricter parking enforcement at the public access. . Martin Zgraggen, 5210 Shady Lane stated he would like to petition the Council to consider a change in zoning of the property located at 5170 Vine Hill Road from C3 to C 1 or less. He related his opinion the current zoning does not match a single family/single dwelling residential neighborhood. 5. DISCUSSION WITH REPRESENTATIVE TOM WORKMAN ON LEGISLA TIVE ISSUES Representative Workman briefly reviewed the past legislative session. He requested the Council's input relative to taxes, education funding, as well as other issues. Mayor Bean spoke to education funding through real estate taxes. He commented alternatives have been discussed other than a real estate tax as a way to fund schools. Mayor Bean expressed his concern local communities would lose control over the amount of funds to be expended on their own schools. . Representative Workman informed the Council this is the biggest issue at the Capitol. He commented in 1995 Senate DFL suggested a property tax freeze. Representative Workman expressed his opinion this would not be the way to correct a very serious problem and informed the Council he had voted against the property tax freeze. He stated his understanding that education funding through property tax could only be replaced through increased income taxes and sales taxes, including an expanded sales tax. 6. PUBLIC HEARING 7:45 P.M. - REGARDING ISSUANCE OF LEASE - PURCHASE OBLIGATION AGREEMENT Finance Director AI Rolek stated the purpose of the public hearing was to receive public input into a Lease Purchase Agreement the City has negotiated with Norwest Investment Services for the financing of the Southshore Senior Community Center. Rolek gave a brief description of the matter. Mayor Bean opened the public hearing at 8:52 p.m. Hearing no public comment, Mayor Bean closed the public hearing at 8:52 p.m. . . REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MAY 28, 1996 - PAGE 3 Stover moved, Shaw seconded adopting RESOLUTION NO. 96-47, "A Resolution Approving the Issuance of a Lease/Purchase Obligation Agreement for the Southshore Senior Community Center." Motion passed 5/0. 7. PLANNING - Report by Representative Commissioner Pisula reported on the study session held on May 21, 1996 (detailed in the minutes of that meeting). The Commission addressed the increasing demand for telecommunication service~ and telecommunication antenna services anticipated for the Shorewood area over the upcommg years. A. A Motion to Direct Staff to Prepare a Findings of Fact Regarding a Revised Setback Variance Applicant: Location: Richard Hoyt 5710 Ridge Road Planning Director Nielsen reviewed the matter. Jim Penberthy, attorney for Richard and Ingrid Hoyt, addressed the Council. Mr. Penberthy reviewed three points consisting of undue hardship, the intent of the statute in regard to setbacks, and precedence. He stated with regard to precedence, the courts have indicated when a variance is granted, a future applicant cannot request a variance based upon that particular decision. Councilmember McCarty inquired if the house has an attached deck on the lake side as well. Mr. Penberthy confIrmed it does. Nielsen stated the Shoreline District Ordinance would allow for a landing at the bottom of a stair structure which is limited to 4' x 8' or no more than 32 square feet. Mayor Bean commented there has been a longstanding practice of saying the citizens of Shorewood are entitled to a consistent approach when variances are granted and when they are not. He further commented there is an issue of fairness which indicates criteria for granting variances should be applied in some uniform and consistent basis. Mayor Bean felt that the request for the variance comes back to the issue of hardship and the uniqueness of the property related to the elevation of the house to the water. He further conunented many of the houses on Ridge Road have a similar situation. The ordinance allows for stair structures or an electric elevator to allow for access to the lake. A landing point which allows a reasonable use of the lake shore means getting from the home to the dock for access to the water. Mayor Bean stated he was having difficulty with uniqueness of the property which suggests a variance is unique to this topography and denies the residents' reasonable use. Their access to the lake is much the same as other residents on Ridge Road. Councilmember McCarty expressed her agreement with Mayor Bean. She further stated she did not recognize an undue hardship because there is access to the water. The property is acceptable and useable. McCarty explained for a variance to be granted, every criteria would need to be met. Councilmember Stover stated her disagreement. She stated the hardship is the height of the elevation, the topography, and the property is not the normal average. Stover expressed her belief that consistency in the issuing of variances is based on following the intent of the ordinance and use must be consistent or comparable. She stated this variance is not out of character with the neighborhood. Stover further stated many variances have been granted over the years and the REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MAY 28, 1996 - PAGE 4 Council must be consistent in how the variance regulations are applied. She expressed her belief the topography of the property is the hardship. Mayor Bean explained the Shoreline District, throughout the city, does not allow a deck structure within 75 feet of the shore. Stover commented houses are also not allowed within 75 feet, however there are houses within that distance. Mayor Bean pointed out these homes had been grandfathered in. Stover further stated this would not be the fIrst time this area would have been invaded. Since the Shoreline Ordinance was written, people have been allowed to substantially change and improve unusable structures on property which is in 20 to 30 feet of the shoreline. Stover noted the general principle has been if the existing grandfathered conditions can be improved, the Council can approve the variance. She further commented she sees an active and passive use of the lake and when buying property, people expect to get both. Councilmember Benson stated this is an aesthetic issue and the residents are not asking for something unique to their area. Over 50 percent of the residents on that lake have structures such as -docks, boat houses and decks in violation of the 75 foot setback which were either grandfathered in or built after the Shoreline District date. He commented he views this situation differently now than he did in 1986 when the 75 foot setback was adopted. Benson expressed there is a problem with not being receptive and the Council needs to work with homeowners and . reflect what is existing. He stated the homeowners in this situation have a reasonable request and he is in agreement with the staff recommendation. Mayor Bean commented the Shoreline District requires a 75 foot setback and if the Council believes that is too much, then that should be addressed. The Council is clearly within the timeframe of the ordinance and the defInition of reasonable use. Councilmember Stover stated if everything was kept exactly the way the ordinance is written, a variance would never be granted anywhere for any reason. Mayor Bean disagreed stating the variance is applied where the rules came into effect after the fact. Stover stated the residents are making an improvement for what the intent of the Shoreline ordinance says. They may not be the only residents who will come in with a similar variance request. If enough variance requests come in and are granted, then the Council needs to look at changing the ordinance. Councilmember McCarty commented the resident must meet the criteria for granting a variance. Shaw agreed with Stover's reference to active and passive use of the lake. He commented there are many reasons to use the lake and shore. Shaw concurred with Stover that an undue hardship would result in denying the variance. Stover moved, Benson seconded to direct staff to prepare a Findings of Fact granting a revised setback variance for Richard Hoyt, 5710 Ridge Road. Motion passed 3/2. McCarty and Bean were the dissenting votes. Mayor Bean stated this matter will be considered on the June 10th agenda. Attorney Penberthy announced the Hoyts are at this time invoking the provisions of Statute 15.99. B. A Motion to Direct Staff to Prepare a Findings of Fact Regarding a Preliminary Plat and Conditional Use Permit for Amoco/McDonald's Car Wash Facility P.U.D. Applicant: D.Y.S. Properties, Represented by Larry Y oungstedt 5170 Vine Hill Road Location: . REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MAY 28, 1996 - PAGE 5 Planning Director Nielsen stated he had received correspondence prior to the meeting from Mr. John Kosmas, KK Design, requesting no action be taken at this meeting while the developers evaluate the recommendation of the Planning Commission. Nielsen gave a detailed review of this matter. Mr. John Kosmas, KK Design, requested that the matter be tabled for 45 days to address the recommendations of the Planning Commission. He understood that the process, at this time, would be for a concept approval rather than development approval. Councilmembers Benson, McCarty and Stover expressed their belief this project is too intense for the site. . City Attorney Coyle explained the Council could allow the matter to be tabled or could take action to deny the plan. He further explained if the applicant would choose to withdraw the plan, he would not suffer a six month delay and could submit a new application at any time. Mr. Kosmas requested to withdraw the application. Councilmember Benson stated his inclination would be to make a motion to deny, and informed Mr. Kosmas extensive changes would need to be made to the present plan. Benson moved, McCarty second to accept withdrawal of the application regarding a preliminary plat and conditional use permit for AmocolMcDonald's car wash facility P.U.D. Motion passed 5/0. Mayor Bean recessed the meeting at 9:27 p.m. and reconvened at 9:37 p.m. C. A Motion to Approve a Building Moving Permit - Remove Detached Garage Applicant: Location: Mark Warren 5260 St. Alban's Bay Road . Planning Director Nielsen reviewed the matter. Mr. Warren appeared and informed the Council he is in agreement with the conditions recommended by staff. Benson moved, Stover seconded approving a building moving permit to remove a detached garage for Mark Warren, 5260 St. Alban's Bay Road. Motion passed 5/0. D. A Motion to Direct Staff to Prepare Findings of Fact Regarding a Setback Variance Applicant: Location: Ron Born 4865 Ferncroft Drive Planning Director Nielsen reviewed the matter. Mr. Born appeared and informed the Council he is in agreement with the conditions recommended by staff. Stover moved, Shaw seconded to direct staff to prepare Findings of Fact granting a setback variance, subject to staff recommendations, for Ron Born, 4865 Ferncroft Drive. Motion passed 5/0. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MAY 28, 1996 - PAGE 6 E. A Motion to Adopt a Resolution Denying a Rezoning and C.U.P. for Watten Ponds P.U.D. Applicant: Location: Dahlstrom Abingdon L.L.P. 5340 and 5370 Eureka Road Planning Director Nielsen reviewed the matter. He stated the applicant has requested no action be taken on the 12-unit proposal and that he be allowed to return to the Planning Commission with a revised plat. This request would be heard at the July 2 Planning Commission meeting. Nielsen explained direction has been given by both the Planning Commission and City Council there would be a preference to zone P.D.D. rather than RI-C. As a result, a second public hearing will be required at the Council level. The applicant has also asked for an extension of the statutory guideline for review. Chuck Dillerud explained, since the last Council meeting, that an agreement was reached by the developers to accommodate a smaller plat. He expressed a concern with time and stated he would like to expedite scheduling of this project. Mr. Dillerud stated he could have materials available for the June 18th Planning Commission meeting. Mr. Dillerud expressed concern there would be a public hearing at the Council level and did not realize the original hearing would be reopened at the . Planning Commission level. Nielsen stated he is not comfortable with that timeframe and felt the July 2 meeting would be a more reasonable date. Councilmember Stover recommended a referral back to the Planning Commission based on a revised plat for a P.D.D. and ten units or less. Mayor Bean agreed and stated he would expect a much more detailed development plan than was previously presented with regard to tree preservation and street location. Stover moved, Shaw seconded to table the request for a resolution denying rezoning and C.U.P. for Watten Ponds P.U.D. and refer the matter back to the Planning Commission. Motion passed 5/0. 8. 1995 ANNUAL AUDIT REPORT - ABDO, ABDO AND EICK AND PRESENTATION OF AWARD CERTIFICATE OF ACHIEVEMENT IN FINANCIAL REPORTING . A Motion to Accept the 1995 Annual Audit Report Gary Groen, Abdo, Abdo & Eick, reviewed the City's 1995 Financial Audit Report. Mayor Bean noted the recommendation for a segregation of duties and inquired what steps should be taken. Mr. Groen indicated there were no particular concerns and this issue is not unique to the City of Shorewood. He stated this would be an awareness issue for the Council and Administration. City Finance Director AI Rolek stated to the extent possible, every step would be taken to ensure proper segregation and one transaction would not be followed through from beginning to end with one person. Mayor Bean suggested the City may be at a point where it would be appropriate for the Liquor Committee to meet and evaluate what is occurring between the three stores. Mr. Groen presented a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for the third year to Finance Director Al Rolek and the City of Shorewood. . . REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MAY 28, 1996 - PAGE 7 McCarty moved, Shaw seconded accepting the 1995 Annual Audit Report. Motion passed 5/0. 9. DISCUSSION WITH CHIEF YOUNG REGARDING PATROLLING HOURS Chief Young addressed the Council with regard to the City of Excelsior's inquiry about the City of Shorewood absorbing several hundred hours of patrol. He also provided a statistical handout which he explained in detail. Chief Young explained there are two ways to reduce costs, the first being to reduce the number of patrol hours which would reduce the budget through the Joint Powers Agreement. Rather than unilaterally cutting the budget, which would affect all of the cities, Excelsior proposes a 550 hour patrol time reduction. The outcome this will have on crime cannot be determined. Mayor Bean inquired if the presence of the patrol is taken away, would this result in higher incidents of crime. Chief Young stated that would be a logical assumption to make. Excelsior Council felt in view of their fmandal situation, they would take that risk and monitor it. If that would occur, they would re-evaluate their situation. Mayor Bean expressed a concern that a drop in service level in Excelsior would have a ripple effect on the adjacent communities. Chief Young stated his feeling Excelsior incidents would go up, however, the increased presence of patrol in the remaining area will help that area. Chief Young commented that past history would indicate Shorewood will have increased requests for service as it grows and the additional 230 hours would probably be picked up naturally over the next five years. In effect, Shorewood could get the benefit of the hours now and not pay for them entirely for five years. Councilmember Stover inquired if Chief Young would be able to inform Excelsior a year from now that in spite of the reduction in patrol hours, the patrol actual spent more hours in their community. Chief Young confirmed that information would be monitored and updated annually. This plan may result in higher costs to Excelsior. Administrator Hurm stated the City of Shorewood would need to determine if they are interested in absorbing the additional hours made available by Excelsior's reduction in patrol time. Councilmember Stover pointed out Shorewood could potentially lose hours if the patrol ultimately has to spend more time in Excelsior. Mayor Bean suggested one option would be to pick up the cost for the patrol hours and allow the patrols to continue patrolling as they see fit. Councilmember Benson disagreed pointing out that Shorewood had picked up their own patrol last year which was very expensive and stated he is not in agreement with picking up another one-quarter patrol. Councilmember Shaw stated the City of Shorewood is effectively making a guarantee. Whether Shorewood is required to pay that guarantee depends on the Initial Criminal Reports which would result. He stated the City has a solid police force which is well run and it would be worth considering a guarantee if need be. Mayor Benson suggested the issue be revisited and stated he is not prepared to make a recommendation at this time. This matter will be reconsidered on July 8th. 10. CONSIDERATION OF A MOTION TO APPROVE VICTORIA WATER AGREEMENT REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MAY 28, 1996 - PAGE 8 The City of Victoria has executed the proposed interconnection agreement between the cities of Shorewood and Victoria. City Engineer Larry Brown reviewed the changes which were made to the agreement. Councilmember Stover asked if the water from the two cities would co-mingle and, if so, are there provisions with regard to this. Brown stated there is a potential of co-mingling based on the location of the wells and the operation of the system. He also pointed out Shorewood is acting as a back-up supply and co-mingling would be more of a concern for Victoria than for Shorewood. Shaw moved, McCarty seconded, approving the Contract for Water Service between the City of Shorewood, Minnesota and the City of Victoria, Minnesota. Motion passed 5/0. 11. CONSIDERA TION OF A MOTION TO APPROVE INTERNET WEB SITE POLICY ON CONTENT AND METHODOLOGY Hurm reviewed the matter and stated the policy may need to be revised. Stover moved, Shaw seconded approving the Internet Web Site Policy on content and methodology, anticipating future amendments to be done adminstratively. Motion passed 5/0. . Councilmembers Benson and McCarty expressed their agreement with this idea. 12. ADMINISTRATOR & STAFF REPORTS Engineer's Report on Status of 1996 Project Schedules City Engineer Larry Brown reviewed his report. With regard to the Minnewashta water tower, Mayor Bean inquired in light of the Bumsville construction site situation, is the orange fence adequate protection given the proximity of children and suggested other steps should be considered in light of that accident. Brown stated staff would look at other alternatives to increase the protection. Mayor Bean also pointed out this should not be limited to the school year. With regard to Smithtown Road between Country Club Road and Eureka Road to the north, . Councilmember Benson inquired what it would cost to speed it up the process. Hurm indicated information to be reviewed at next meeting. Mayor Bean advised keeping in mind the Council must be sure the water main will go down Smithtown before executing the agreement with Victoria. 13. MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL REPORTS Councilmember Shaw thanked everyone who attended the annual meeting/community breakfast of the Community Education Services of Minnetonka on May 30th. Mayor Bean reported the City is meeting in mediation with the Teamsters on Monday, June 17th with regard to the police contract. 14. ADJOURNMENT SUBJECT TO PAYMENT OF CLAIMS Shaw moved, Benson seconded to adjourn the City Council meeting at 11:32 p.m., subject to payment of claims. Motion passed 5/0. . .

These are the pock marks that you may notice in the top surface of the walk. . Literally hundreds of projects over the Minneapolis metropolitan area were plagued with this problem during the 1995 construction season. This is due to a new mining pit which was opened to supply the two largest suppliers of concrete in the metro area. These pop-outs are not uncommon in smaIl amounts. However, it was determined after the fact, that the aggregate originating from this particular mine had an inordinate amount oflimestone or shale content. Shale material is very porous and absorbs water. Once the water absorbed by the shale freezes during the winter months, it expands and "pops out" the soft shale material. Many projects involving artistic scoring patterns and designs were impacted within the metro area. Through the mediation proceedings that have taken place on large size projects (one million dollar plus range), the "industry standard" that has been arrived at is that concrete surfaces with soft rock pop outs shall be filled with a special epoxy grout and seal coated versus total removal and replacement. This results in a darker spot or freckle within the surface. Concrete surfaces to be removed would be only those where the freckle created by patching would adversely affect special scoring designs or artistic designs. The other industry standard that has been created is for municipalities to final out the contracts (where appropriate) and to obtain a bond with the subcontractor for patching or replacement. This is reasonable as the general contractor is released their retainage, and the subcontractor who is responsible for completing the work is directly on line for restoration. This frees the general contractor and gives the A Residential Communirv 'Jf1 Lake :'Ainneronka.; South Shcre #3A City Hall Parking Lot June 7, 1996 Page 2 of2 City a direct financial surety with the subcontractor to insure that the work is completed in a timely manner. The subcontractor on this project which placed the concrete was Landmark Concrete. When contacted about the problem, they stated that they are familiar with the patching and repairing that is becoming the accepted standard. Although these "freckles" do not impact the structural integrity of the concrete, this contractor felt that it was not a good reflection on Landmark Concrete as a final product. They prefer. remove and replace the slab, if the City was willing to work with their schedule this summer. I must report that it certainly speaks well of Landmark Concrete that they take such pride in their work over and above what has become the industry standard. Based on this information, it is recommended that the City Hall parking lot be accepted for final payment contingent upon the subcontractorof Landmark Concrete supplying the City of Shore wood a performance bond in the amount of2500.00 and a schedule for replacement of the walk. A resolution is attached for your consideration. .

To be eligible, a matching dollar commitment is required from the community for each loan and grant offered. A unique feature of the loan is that if the 1/1 project is annually certified as being effective for a period of five years after completion, annual repayment of the loan will be forgiven. . As part of the 1996 budget process, the Metropolitan Council has allocated a total of $400,000 to this loan and grant offering. The objective of the loans is to promote and fund, in-part, III projects at the local level which will benefit bo~h the community and the metropolitan wastewater system. The objective of the grants is to promote and fund,. in-part, studies that identify sources of 1/1 and develop projects at the local level which will also benefit both the community and the metropolitan wastewater system. A description of the loan and grant offer is enclosed which identifies the criteria MCES staff will use in evaluating and ranking the proposed projects and studies. To apply for either a loan or grant, you will need your councilor board to pass a resolution authorizing you or another appropriate sta"ff member to submit the application and to serve as your subject matter contact. Please attach a copy of the official minutes of this action to the enclosed application form and complete the application form according to the instructions enclosed.

METROPOLITAN COUNCIL ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES DESCRIPTION OF OFFER OF HATCHING LOAN AND GRANT MONIES TO COMMUNITIES FOR INFILTRATION/INFLOW CONTROL PROGRAMS APRIL 1996 I. DESCIUPTION The Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES) is offering a limited number of loans up to $40,000 to communities served by the MCES for community-sponsored projects to reduce excessive infiltration and inflow (I/I) from entering the - Metropolitan Disposal System (MDS)~ Each loan will require that a matching dollar expenditure on the project be made from the recipient community. The first distribution of the loan money will occur upon start up of the project and will consist of 50% of the total loan amount. The remaining ~O% of the loan money will be given to the community upon satisfactory completion of the project and 30 days after receipt of documentation of reimbursable project expenses of not less than 200% of the loan amount. The loan eligible work must be completed within 18 months after the date of the agreement. After the completion of the work by the community, the community must provide annual documentation for a period of five years following completion of the I/I project, certifying that the I/I has not returned to the system. For each year that documentation is provided that shows the project to be effective in the reduction of I/I, repayment of the loan for that year (based on a fixed, short term interest rate) will be forgiven. The designated interest rate for any loan repayments will be based on one percent above the Five Year Treasury Bond market rate at closing on the date the agreement is signed by the loan recipient. Interest for any loan repayments will computed from the date of project completion. The MCES will accept as documentation that the project has performed as intended, a certificate from an Engineer licensed in the State of Minnesota, for the first, second and fourth year after project completion. For the third and fifth year, the MCES will require that some type of physical documentation accompany the certification. The MCES is also offering a limited number of grants up to $10,000 to communities served by the MCES for community sponsored studies to identify, locate, quantify and develop an action plan to eliminate excessive I/I sources from entering the MDS. Each Grant will require that a matching dollar expenditure toward the study be made from the recipient community. The. grant eligible work must be completed 18 months after the agreement has been signed. Page 1 The first distribution of the grant money will occur upon start up of the study and will consist of 50% of the total grant amount. The remaining 50% of the grant will be given to the community upon satisfactory completion of the study. The total amount allocated for loans and grants is a minimum of $400,000. There are currently no funds allocated for continuation of these offers once the $400,000 has been committed. If the number of applications received through the initial offer is insufficient to encumber $400,000, the MCES reserves the right to offer to raise the $40,000 loan and $10,000 grant ceilings to the initial qualifying applicants. The $400,000 will be allocated into two separate funds in which - communities can apply for monies for qualifying projects or studies. Of the $400,000, $80,000 will be made available for matching dollar grants up to $10,000 for studies and reports aimed at identifying, locating and proposing solutions to . existing III problems within the community. Those applicants who receive a grant will be required to submit to the MCES a final report summarizing the findings of the study and outlining the action plan to address identified sources of III. The balance of the $400,000, or $320,000, will be reserved for matching dollar loans up to $40,000 for projects aimed at eliminating sources of III from the MDS. Each community can submit applications for a maximum of two project loans and a maximum of 1 grant. All communities that are billed for their wastewater directly by the MCES are eligible to apply. Local and regional agencies such as the Metropolitan Airports Commission, University of Minnesota and the state Fairground may apply for either a loan or a grant . but must do so by applying thru the local government in which sanitary sewer service is provided. Applications will be reviewed by MCES staff who will make a recommendation to the members of the Metropolitan Council on the priority of the community's proposed project(s) or study. The application procedure and the staff's criteria for priority ranking for III Control Projects are outlined herein. The Metropolitan Council will review the staff's recommendations and establish the final list of loan and grant recipients through official member action. Recipient communities will be required to enter into an agreement, with the Council, authorized by resolution of their City Councilor Township Board. (The word "City" used hereafter includes eligible TownShips.) The City's requirements, under the agreement, will include that the City prOVide assurances that the funds are applied to the stated purpose, that the project is . cost-effective, that costs be accurately accounted, and that a written report be submitted to the MCES upon completion of the work. The agreement will also provide the MCES the right to audit City records pertaining to the loan and grant funds and Page 2 ~ . . matching local share. Each community that receives a loan will be required on the anniversary date of the project completion to provide to the MCES a certification stating that the project has continued to be successful in reducing I/I from the system. For each year that the project can be certified as performing in its intended purpose of I/I reduction, repayment of the loan funds will be forgiven. In the event that during the first five-year period after the completion of the project, the community cannot certify that the project has continued its intended purpose of I/I reduction, then the community has to either; 1. immediately (within 3 months upon discovery) initiate a fOllow-up project using community funds to repair the original project or, 2. repay -a portion of-the loan distribution plus interest, until either the original project is repaired and the I/I eliminated, or continue to repay the loan distribution amount plus interest annually until the end of the 5 year period after the original project completion date. Exact terms of loan repaYment schedules and amounts will be included in each individual agreement between the MCES and loan recipient The goal of this loan offer is to assist communities to implement I/I control improvements which provide a metropolitan benefit in addition to a local benefit. Because the funds are limited for this loan offer, the MCES places a greater priority on physical improvements over desk-top studies. Studies to identify, quantify and locate sources of I/I can receive monetary assistance under the grant portion of this program offer. Communities that already have an understanding of where problems exist and how they can be corrected will be in a better position to justify their proposal for the loan offered under this program. The MCES also intends that the administration of these loan agreements be streamlined to coincide in nature with the limited loan amount and the infrequent offering of loan and grant monies. Loan and Grant money will not be made available for projects or studies that have been started prior to the date of the agreement. Projects pertaining to the separation of sewers (storm vs Sanitary) will not be eligible for either the loan or grant monies. The intent of this loan/grant offer is to help communities initiate projects which are not funded by other outside sources. - II. GENERAL CRITERIA FOR FUNDING PRIORITIES (LOANS) Proposed projects will be evaluated by MCES staff who will make a recommendation on the priority classification of the project. MCES staff will prepare a recommended priority list for consideration by the members of the Metropolitan Council. Page 3 Projects targeted to produce a metropolitan benefit will receive higher priority than those where a metropolitan benefit is unlikely. Removal of I/I which previously resulted in sewage bypasses would be an example of a project with metropolitan benefit, in that loading to the conveyance and treatment facilities would be lessened and a potential public health hazard would be eliminated. A project to increase the capacity of the local system for the above example would not however be considered an example of a metropolitan benefit. If a project is submitted that cites an elimination of historic bypasses, the application must include a copy of a "MPCA Report Form(s)" which documents the bypass (es). Another example of metropolitan benefit is a project designed to reduce high peak flow rates, resulting from I/I. The 1992 "Systemwide Infiltration/Inflow - Evaluation" by the former MWCC is one source of information on communities where peak flow rates are estimated to be above average. Since the aforementioned report did not include information 4It regarding estimated Rain Derived I/I (ROI/I) or Groundwater Infiltration (GWI) for the cities of Minneapolis, st. Paul or South st. Paul, applications from these communities will need to include documentation of their RDI/I and GWI. Other communities may also submit their own information demonstrating high peak flow rates and groundwater infiltration rates for specific project areas. Priority ranking will be given for those communities which were characterized in the "Systemwide Infiltration/Inflow Evaluation" report has having both potentially excessive rain dependent I/I (RDI/I) and groundwater infiltration (GWI). Attached is Exhibit A, a copy of communities identified as having potentially excessive ROI/I and GWI in the 1992 Systemwide I/I Study. Priority ranking will also be given for those communities located ~ within the service areas of the Blue Lake, Metropolitan, and ,., Stillwater wastewater treatment facilities. These treatment facilities were identified in the "Systemwide Infiltration/Inflow Evaluation" study, as benefiting most from I/I removal. Loan recipients will need to demonstrate that they already have an understanding of the source of the I/I and how it can be effectively reduced. Peak rates of inflow have a greater impact on metropolitan wastewater facilities than the long term effect from average rates of groundwater infiltration. Therefore, projects designed to immediately reduce peak rates of inflow will receive higher priority than those designed to eliminate the average rate of groundwater infiltration. After completion of the project, the Community will be responsible for certifying that the project has maintained its intended pUrpose of I/I reduction. As part of the loan application, the Community is requested to propose the method for certifying the project. The method of certification will be reviewed, negotiated and included in the agreement. Two such Page 4 methods of certification would be to document the condition of the project by means of televised inspections or by visual inspections. The certification shall be signed by an Engineer registered in the state of Minnesota. The general criteria are summarized below. Higher priority rankings will be assigned for projects characterized by items from the top of this list. Lower priority rankings will be associated with items from the bottom of the list. Proposed Pro;ect Rankinq criteria for ~oans (Descending Order of Priority) Estimated total of I/I reduction as result of project is either greater than 32 MGY, between 16 MGY and 32 MGY, or between 5 MGY and 16 MGY . Benefits Metropolitan Area and Facilities a. Immediate Savings c. Pollution Abatement b.

Targets the Reduction of long term average/continuous infiltration III. GENERAL CRITER~ FOR FUNDING PRIORITIES (GRANTS) Proposed studies will be evaluated by MCES staff who will make a recommendation on the priority classification of the study. MCES staff will prepare a recommended priority list for consideration by the members of the Metropolitan Council. At a minimum, applications for a gr~nt shall contain the following: 1. Description.and scope of the study. 2. Time schedule for completion (identify key steps and intermediate dates.) 3. Objectives of study. 4. Who will be responsible for preparing the report (city staff vs consultant). If contracteq Will proj~ct be competitively bid? . Page 5 5. Map of study area and wastewater collection system in the vicinity of the study area. 6. List of anticipated benefits to Metropolitan System rf work proposed by study is carried out. 7. Estimate of potential I/I removed if project initiated (MGY) 8. Cost Effectiveness of proposed project. 9. Identifies any historic sanitary sewer bypasses. As a minimum for consideration for a grant, studies need to result in projects targeted to produce a metropolitan benefit. Applications for grants which are received by communities which have been identified in the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission's study "Systemwide Infiltration/Inflow Evaluation" dated April 1992, as having high nWet Whether Peak Ratios" will receive a higher priority ranking than those communities which were identified with lower "Wet Weather Peak Ratios". A listing of "Wet Weather Peak Ratios" as given in the 1992 "Systemwide . Infiltration/Inflow Evaluation" report is attached, as Exhibit B, for informational purposes only. Since peak flow conditions are the main cause for most capital improvements to the MOS, studies aimed at identifying projects to reduce these types flows will be given a higher priority. IV. APPLICATION PROCEDURE To apply for a loan, a grant, or both, the Application Form(s) must be completed and signed by the City Administrator or equivalent staff authorized to submit the application by a resolution of the City Council. Attach a copy of the official minutes authorizing the submittal of the Loan/Grant Application to the application form. Attach supplemental information to describe the I/I problem, the details of the proposed project, and how the project(s) meets the priority criteria of the loan or grant offer and other pertinent information as requested on the application form. Applications must be post-marked no later than June 14, 1996. . IV. EVALUATION OF APPLICATIONS After the submittal deadline, copies-of the loan and grant applications will be made and distributed to a panel consisting of between 3 to 5 members af Metropolitan Council staff. Each member will independently review and evaluate every loan and grant application using the criteria outlined herein. Each panel member will assign a point value to the application. Upon completion of the application evaluation, the point values will be averaged and all the applications will be ranked in descending order. Each member will be notified as to the ranking of the Page 6 . . applications and will be given the opportunity to comment. Once the final ranking is accepted by the panel, a list of the recipient loan and grant applicants with the highest rankings will be given to the Metropolitan Council for final approval. After the Council has approved the rankings and the list of recipients, loan and grant offers will be made and negotiations for the agreements will commence. V. OFFERS Offers will be made approximately in the third week in JUly, 1996. A written offer will be sent to each qualifying community ~at will contain the loan or grant agreement language. Actual award of the loan or grant will be contingent upon City Council action authorizing the agreement between the MCES and city. A: \pJ:oq:_\proqde_. doG Page I I I ; i t . .

It was decided that the meeting would continue to follow the Agenda, but that there would be discussion only because no formal action can be taken. 4. APPROVAL OF MINUTES The Minutes of the April 23, 1996 Park Commission meeting will be on the Agenda for approval at the June meeting. 5. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR . Administrator Hurm asked for discussion on the timing of Badger play equipment and suggested that it could be a Tree Trust project if done this summer. (He reminded the Park Commission that the budget for this project is $22,500 with $18,500 going to the structure itself. It was agreed that it would be helpful to complete the rest of the park tours before making a decision. The second 1996 Tour was set for Tuesday, June 4, 1996 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., beginning with Manor Park. The next Regular Meeting date was also scheduled. It will be on Tuesday, June 25. Hurm stated that with the construction of the Senior Community Center, it would be cost effective to use the fill that will be generated, rather than move it to another location. Adding the soil to raise and crown the current football field would help with the drainage and grading problems that exist, but would make the field unavailable for this season. Engineer Brown added that the crunch on the sporting programs would be worth the significant fmancial advantage. He also explained that the Watershed District may be requiring construction of a wet pond, which would be best to the northeast of the football field. There was a consensus of members present that a wet pond should not be located at this site unless absolutely necessary. ~ 5 .... ~ ,"\. SHOREWOOD PARK COMMISSION MINUTES WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 1996 PAGE 2 of 3 Hurm distributed the following handouts for review and possible future discussion: 1. Hennepin Parks LRT Meeting Minutes, Memorandum and Winter Use Permit 2. A copy of a letter from a Shorewood resident written to the Editor of the Sun- Sailor from the May 29 edition of the paper concerning trails. 3. Trails article and survey from the Summer issue of the "Citizen Informer". 4. A quick summary of snowmobile survey results. 6. WORK ON GOAL STATEMENT FOR PARKS AND RECREATION A Memo from Planning Director, Brad Nielsen was distributed which describes examples and reasoning for goal statements for the Park Commission to formulate for inclusion in the Comprehensive Plan. Hurm explained that at present there is no overall encompassing goal for . parks in Shorewood and that it should be developed, although there is no deadline. Dan Puzak offered to look at the issue and come to the next meeting with ideas. 7. COMMISSIONER REPORTS A. Snowmobile Task Force - The last meeting of the Snowmobile Task Force is scheduled for May 30. Laura Turgeon has replaced Ingrid Schaff, who had recently resigned from the task force. The direction of the recommendation seems to be approval of snowmobiles with stress on new regulations with strong enforcement. Another key area is education and communication. This may involve the Park Commission in taking an active role in education and/or implementation. B. Hennepin County Park Update - This was covered in discussion under "Matters From the Floor". C. Park Foundation Report - Ken Dallman reported that the 1996 Park Festival has been canceled and will be rescheduled for spring 1997. The Foundation is also looking into trying a temporary concession stand for about a month at Freeman. Another option is to raise the fee from the sports organizations to help finance the concession building. Other ideas for fund raisers were discussed. The next Park Foundation meeting will be in July. Hurm added that the goal of a concession stand/picnic pavilion is the key vision for the Foundation. D. Trail Plan and Community Survey - This was covered in discussion under "Matters From the Floor". . 8. REVIEW POLICE CHIEF REPORT ON 1995/1996 SNOWMOBILE SEASON This information was covered in the handout that was provided in the meeting packet. There was no discussion at this time. . . - . SHOREWOOD PARK COMMISSION MINUTES WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 1996 PAGE 3 of 3 9. REVIEW TOURNAMENT POLICY AND FEE SCHEDULE A draft of the tournament application form was handed out and tournament fees were discussed. Hurm reported that the coordinator for a recent softball tournament has been contacted about damages that occurred during their tournament and that this incident has prompted the need to update the policy for tournaments. This could perhaps include the requirement for a damage deposit and to provide a dumpster, in addition to paying a "Users Fee". Commissioner Puzak agreed that policies do need to be set, which should also include the requirement of a designated tournament coordinator to oversee safety, clean-up, traffic, parking, etc. Hurm said that other communities will be surveyed as to their policies and this can be looked at further for the June Park Commission meeting. There was additional discussion on the possibility of allowing liquor license for post tournament events at the parks. Further discussion will be necessary. 10. ESTABLISH NEXT MEETING DATES The next regular meeting of the Park Commission will be on Tuesday, June 25, 1996 at 7:30 p.m.. and a second tour date is scheduled for Tuesday, June 4, 1996 at 6:00 p.m.. 11.

ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Shorewood this 10th day of June, 1996. Robert B. Bean, Mayor ATfEST: James C. Hurm City Administrator/Clerk - 2 - -" CITY OF SHOREWOOD 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD. SHOREWOOD. MINNESOTA 55331-8927 · (612) 474-3236 MEMORANDUM . TO: FROM: DATE: RE: FILE NO.: Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council Brad Nielsen 29 May 1996 Larson Estates - Preliminary Plat 405 (96.09) BACKGROUND Mr. Carl Zinn, representing Stephen and Lucinda Larson, has submitted a preliminary plat for the property located at 20435 Radisson Road (see Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached). As can be seen on Exhibit B, the plat proposes to divide the property into three lots and three outlots. . The subject property contains 7.1 acres, is zoned R-INS, Single-Family ResidentiallShoreland and is occupied by the Larsons' residence. The property is characterized by a dranlatic change . in topography, dropping from elevation 1012 just east of the house to 936 at the south end of the site. Approximately two acres of the southerly portion of the site is a designated wetland. As can be seen on the attached exhibits, the site includes a narrow (57 feet) strip of property which extends down to the shoreline of Christmas Lake. Following is a breakdown of the proposed lot areas: Lot 1 - 50,136 square feet Lot 2 85,855 " " Lot 3 60,867 " " O.L.A 91,656 " " O.L. B 10,816 " " O.L. C 5.822 " " Total - 309,152 " " (7.1 ac.) Outlot A is the designated wetland area. The applicant proposes to convey Outlot B to the property owner to the east. The owners intend to keep Outlots C and D as access to Christmas Lake. A Residential Communitv on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore fJl:, ~ Re: Larson Estates Preliminary Plat 29 May 1996 ISSUES AND ANALYSIS . With the exception of Lot 2, the lots meet or exceed the size requirements of the R-INS zoning district. Lot 2, as proposed, does not comply with width requirements by 25 feet. In the consideration of this plat the following issues must be addressed: A. Lot Width. Lot 2 is only 95 feet wide at the building line, whereas 120 feet is required. This is easily adjusted by moving the lot line between Lots 1 and 2. B . Lot Confi~ations. Due to the topography of the site the proposed lot configurations are less than ideal. Lot lines are gerrymandered to try and take advantage of the most logical locations for building pads. While this is unavoidable to some degree, the lot lines can be cleaned up somewhat. Exhibit D shows a slight modification of the proposed lots which addresses several issues. . 1. The northeasterly line of Lot 1 has been moved to the west to give Lot 2 the required width prescribed by the Zoning Code, eliminating the need for any variance. 2. The rear lot line for Lot 2 has been moved back to create a 50-foot setback for the proposed building pad on Lot 2. This will allow Lot 2 to take better advantage of the more level area at the top of the lot. 3 . The side lot line between Lots 2 and 3 has been pivoted so as to be nearly 90 degrees with the street. More importantly the lot line comes closer to being 90 degrees with the contours of the site. This allows drainage to be conducted within the required drainage and utility easement along the side lot lines. This change may also allow Lot 3 to take better advantage of the less severe slope to the north of the proposed building pad, if nothing else for yard space. 4. The rear lot line of Lot 3 has been extended slightly, taking out an unnecessary jog in the lot line. B . Wetlands. The applicant has commissioned a wetland delineation for the property and has agreed to dedicate Outlot A to the. City for wetland conservation purposes. The 50-foot wetland setback required by the City is shown on the plat. It should be noted that the building pad proposed for Lot 3 extends right up to the setback and is proposed as a walkout design. The applicant is reminded that decks, patios and similar features are not allowed within the required setback. Design of a future home should provide adequate space for such features. Outlot A should be extended to include the portion of wetland located within Outlot C. As a final note, the wetland buffer must be adequately staked so as to accommodate field verification of the required setback. C. Outlot B. The owner of the property located east of the plat wishes to enlarge his total lot area. As part of the [mal plat, Outlot B must be legally combined with the adjoining property and not left as a separate parcel. The wetland buffer and setback requirements must be observed for Outlot B. 2 Re: Larson Estates Preliminary Plat 29 May 1996 D. Outlots C and D. This portion of the site becomes separated from the rest due to the required wetland dedication. A protective covenant or deed restriction should be required as part of the final plat, stating that these outlots shall not be sold separately from Lot 2. The only exception to this would be a sale to one of the adjoining property owners. E. Access - Lot 1. The plat shows Lot 1 being accessed from the existing driveway of Lot 2. This should be encouraged to avoid having to construct an additional driveway down steep terrain to the curved portion of Radisson Road. The [mal plat submission should include a proposed easement and maintenance agreement to be recorded with this plat. -P. Drainage and Utility Easements. The Subdivision Code requires lO-foot drainage and utility easements on each side of each rear and side lot line. These must be shown on the [mal plat. . G. Tree Preservation. Since the plat requires no street or utility construction and lots will be custom graded, tree preservation will be addressed at the time building permits are issued. It should be noted that some trees will be lost in order to fit the homes into the site. The resolution approving a final plat should include the expectation that future homes will be custom designed to fit the site and to minimize tree removal. H. Required Pees. Prior to release of a [mal plat, the applicant must pay the following fees: 1. Park dedication (Lots 1 and3) $1000 x 2 = $2000. 2. Local sanitary sewer access (Lots 1 and 3) $1000 x 2 = $2000.- 3. Trunk water charges (Lot 1 and 3) $5000 x 2 = $10,000. . It should be noted that the owners may petition to have the trunk water charges assessed against the property. As part of the final plat the applicant must provide a recordable document putting future owners of Lots 1 and 3 on notice that additional assessment will be imposed at such time as water is extended to serve the property. RECOMMENDATION Despite the topography of the site, it appears that two new lots can be created on the site, provided extra care is taken to fit the homes to the site. Based on the preceding analysis it is recommended that the preliminary plat be approved subject to the following: 1 . Lot 2 must be widened to 120 feet at the building line. 2. The lots should be reconfigured as shown on Exhibit D. 3 . Outlot A should be extended to include the portion of wetlands on Outlot C. 4. The required wetland buffer must be adequately staked by the applicant's surveyor to accommodate field verification of wetland setbacks. 5 . Outlot B must be legally combined wi~ the property to the east. 3 Re: Larson Estates Preliminary Plat 29 May 1996 6. Deed restrictions must be recorded for Outlots C and D, stating that they will not be sold separately from Lot 2. 7. The fmal plat must show drainage and utility easements, ten feet on each side of rear and side lot lines. . . 8. The applicant must provide an up-to-date (within 30 days) title opinion or commitment for title insurance for the property. 9. Tree preservation will be addressed in detail upon review of future building permits. The resolution approving the final plat will set forth the City's expectation that homes will be custom designed to fit the site and minimize tree removal. 10. Prior to release of the final plat, the applicant must pay park dedication fees, local sanitary sewer access charges and trunk water charges for Lots 1 and 3. 11. The applicant must submit a recordable document notifying future owners that additional assessments will be incurred upon extension of water main to serve the property. . 12. The fmal plat must include "Block 1". 13. The applicant must provide an easement and maintenance agreement for the portion of driveway shared by Lots 1 and 2. 14. The final plat application, complete with the items referenced herein, must be submitted within six months from the date of City Council approval of the preliminary plat. cc: Jim Hurm Tim Keane Larry Brown Carl Zion Stephen Larson 4 '--/ GOVT LOT '3 1.0' .,. :..

FROM: J . -- Lany Brown ~ June 3, 1996 DATE: RE: Larson Estates - Preliminary Plat FILENO.: 405 (96.09) Existing Site Conditions This 7.1 acre site is located at 20435 Radisson Road and presently has one residential home with garage structure. Site topography varies between the elevations of 1012 immediately east of the existing residence to 936 at the south end of the site. The southerly two acres of the site is a City designated wetland. . Sanitary Sewer and Watermain Sanitary sewer is available to the site by an existing 9 inch PVC main within Raddision Road. - Elevations are sufficient to serve all of the homes proposed within the plat. This area is currently operating by private wells. Watermain is tentatively scheduled for installation in the year 2009 per the City of Shorewood's 20 year water implementation plan. Grading and Drainage The grading and drainage plan is incomplete. The proposed house pad elevation for Lot 3 is at 959 at the rear yard. The plan shows a heavy dashed line behind the house. Although this line type does not match the legend shown on the plan, it is assumed that this is a retaining wall since the surrounding ground is 11 feet higher than the house pad. The applicant needs to provide a contoured detail on grading around the house pad and retaining wall to insure proper drainage. A Residential Communitv on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore . . Preliminary Plat-Larson Estates June 3, 1996 Page 2 of2 Drainage for the plat needs to address impacts to Lot 3 from lots to the north. Lots 1 and 2 currently drain to the rear yard and across the proposed driveway of Lot 3. The applicant's engineer needs to revise the plan which minimizes drainage impacts to Lot 3. Site Access The plan proposes two driveways for Lots 1 and Lot 2 with an intersection of the driveways on Lot 2. It is recommended the driveways for Lot 1 and Lot 2 share the existing easterly access to Radission Road and that the westerly branch of the wye be removed. Minor modifications to the existing entrance will be required during construction to insure proper alignment of vehicles entering Radission road. Recommendations It is recommended that the plat be approved contingent upon the following conditions 1. The applicant shall revise the grading and drainage plan which shows positive drainage around the house pad of proposed lot 3. 2. The Grading and Drainage plan shall be revised to indicate all of the necessary grading for the site. 3. The driveways for Lot 1 and Lot 2 be combined to share an access onto Radisson Road. .. CITY OF SHOREWOOD 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD · SHOREWOOD, MINNESOTA 55331.8927 . (612) 474-3236 MEMORANDUM . TO: FROM: DATE: RE: Fll..E NO.: Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council Brad Nielsen 3 June 1996 Johns, Kevin - C.U.P. for Accessory Space in Excess of 1200 Square Feet 405 (96.11) BACKGROUND Kevin Johns has applied for a conditional use permit to construct accessory space in excess of 1200 square feet on the property located at 26890 Edgewood Road (see Site Location map- Exhibit A, attached). Mr. Johns has undertaken a substantial improvement project on the property, part of which includes expanding his existing garage. Since the area of the garage, when added to an existing outbuilding on the site, exceeds 1200 square feet, a C.U.P. is required. . The property is zoned R-INS, Single-Family ResidentiallShoreland and contains 41,517 square feet in area. As shown on Exhibit B the site is occupied by the applicant' s home and a nonconforming boathouse near the lake. The new detached garage contains 582 square feet of area, bringing the total area of accessory structures on the site to 1506 square feet. The existing home contains 4240 square feet in the fIrst and second level alone (not including basement area above grade). An artists rendering of the proposed garage is shown on Exhibit C. The applicant's request letter, dated 7 May 1996 is Exhibit D. ANAL YSISIRECOMMENDATION Section 1201.03 Subd. 2.d.(4) of the Zoning Code prescribes criteria for granting conditional use permits for accessory space over 1200 square feet. Following is how the applicant's plans comply with the Code: a. The total area of accessory buildings (1506 square feet) does not exceed the floor area (4240 square feet) above grade of the existing home. b. The total area of accessory buildings does not exceed 10 percent of the minimum lot size for the R-INS zoning district (.10 x 40,000 = 4000 square feet). A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore "l.., . . -. Re: Johns, Kevin C.U.P. for Accessory Space 3 June 1996 c. The proposed garage expansion complies with R-INS setback requirements. It should be noted that the applicant has jogged the new garage in slightly to comply with the 20-foot side yard requirement. The applicant's plans show proposed hard cover at 24.8 percent, including the new garage and a future pool. This complies with the Shoreland District maximum requirement of 25 percent. d. Since the new garage is an integral part of the existing house and garage architectural compatibility is not considered to be an issue. Based upon the preceding analysis, it is recommended that the applicant's request for a "'conditional use permit be granted as proposed. cc: Jim Hurm Tim Keane Kevin Johns -2- . i..... ~...::~ !it '6Lt .....:. ,.... .....". t: 001 'j;; '" ~ In . __~~'_O~~~----- .::::~~ - !'! -- - - ---- ----- :". ~;:.- - - - -- - - -- -- --. -~ ...

To: City of Shorewood From: Kevin Johns 26890 Edgewood Rd., Shorewood, MN Subject: Remodel I Conditional USE Permit I am currently remodeling my primary residence which will include a second story and hopefully the attached additional two garage stalls. I am doing a complete restoration of the existing building. This will include stucco on the outside of the entire house. I will also be doing some landscaping, especially around the new garage. I will only have to remove a small crabapple tree to put in the new garage. . Please find enclosed all materials requested per 1201.04. I would also thank the City of Shorewood for assistance so far in my remodeling project. Sincerely, :x:- .~~ - /'-- Kevin Johns Exhibit D APPLICANT'S REQUEST LETTER Dated 7 May 1996 CITY OF SHOREWOOD 5755 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD. SHOREWOOD. MINNESOTA 55331-8927 · (612) 474-3236 MEMORANDUM . TO: FROM: DATE: RE: FILE NO.: Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council Brad Nielsen 30 May 1996 New Horizon Child Care - Site Plan Review 405 (96.07) BACKGROUND New Horizon Child Care, Inc. has submitted plans for a day care facility at 19625 State Highway 7 (see Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached). The property is part of the Waterford (commercial) P.D.D. and contains approximately 40,020 square feet of area. The applicant proposes a 93' x 73' , single-story building with parking in front and fenced play areas in the side and rear yards. The proposed site plan is shown on Exhibit B, landscaping is shown on Exhibit C and building plans are shown on Exhibits D and E. The proposed plans require site plan approval by the City Council. ANAL YSISIRECOMMENDATION . The proposed use is consistent with the commercial element of the Waterford P. D.D. The subject property was specifically designated for use as a day care facility. Following is how the proposed plans comply with the Waterford Development Agreement: 1 . Setbacks: front: side: rear: side abutting a street: Proposed 83' 38' 50' 30' Approved 50' 10' 50' 30' 2. The single-story building is consistent with height requirements of the Waterford P.D.D. 3. The proposed building design and materials (e.g. pitched roof, brick and cedar etc.) are in keeping with the design guidelines of the P. U.D. The applicant should indicate what color the siding materials will be. 4. Landscaping. Similar to other landscape plan reviews in the Waterford commercial area, the recommendation is more and bigger. Additional plants should be shown on the berm in front of the site. The berm itself should be extended to the west, observing 30-foot sight A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore ,,0 . . Re: New Horizons Child Care, Inc. Site Plan Review 30 May 1996 triangles at the entry to the property. Significant evergreen trees should be shown along the south and east sides of the property to buffer the residential area to the south and east of the site. Although the two entryway trees are 5-inch caliper as required, many of the other plants are smaller than what was specified in the Waterford design guidelines. Plant sizes shown in the plant schedule should be changed as follows: Spruce Amur Maple Crab Junipers Viburnum 6' 2-1/2 ' cal. min. 2-112' " " 24' min. 3' min. 5 . Parking. The site plan proposes 28 parking spaces. Based upon the occupant load prescribed by the State Building Code (35 square feet per occupant) and the following children-to-care provider ratio allowed by Hennepin County: 4: 1 infant, 7: 1 toddler, and 10: 1 preschool, the required number of parking spaces is 26. The applicant is advised that onstreet parking on the Highway 7 service road or Shady Hills Road will not be tolerated. If problems arise, "no parking" signs will be located along those streets. 6. Fencing. The plans propose fencing around play areas on the east, south and west sides of the building, but do not specify height or style. The applicant is advised that any fencing within the 3D-foot setback along Shady Hills is limited to four feet in height. 7. Signage. The plans include only one sign - a pylon sign located in the northeast comer of the site. The 49 square foot area of the sign is well within the amount of signage allowed. The applicant should note that the 20-foot height requirement must be measured from the parking lot grade. 8. Lighting (shown on Exhibit G) is consistent with P.D.D. and Shorewood Code requirements~ It is recommended that the site plan be approved subject to the following: a. A revised landscaping plan should be required showing more and bigger plants. b. Site grading and drainage must be approved by the City Engineer. c. The berm on the comer of the site should be extended to the west. d. A fencing plan must be submitted, showing the style and height of proposed fencing. Anything located in the 3D-foot setback abutting Shady Hills Road is limited to four feet in height. e. Height of the pylon sign must be measured from the parking lot grade. cc: Jim Hurm Tim Keane Larry Brown Yanis Blumentals n--------H7Tr-- ~ (22) c:!__ ___________________ ~ ~ i : . ~ (6) :"' '. : , ' (~)', : 199...-- ~ LOl N \._.--~1.C----..;-.~-~~ ~ L---.--.]~-.-.-.. ~ / (7: " (Il ('3) (4) (5) ..........".7......... ~-:....! .~..._.,~..- E!

DATE: RE: New Horizon Child Care-Site Plan Review FILE NO: 405(9607) Existing Conditions The site is approximately 0.92 acres in size" and is part of the Waterford P.U.D.. Relieffor the site varies from 987.0 towards the center of the site to 982.5 near the southeast quadrant. Proposed Site Analysis . The proposed site includes construction of a 6,741 square foot building with a bituminous surfaced parking lot which provides 28 parking stalls. Two of the proposed parking stalls are handicap accessible which is in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Parking and site grades appear to be appropriate for this application. The plan indicates connection of the proposed storm sewer system is to connect into an existing catchbasin within the lot to the west. Survey information provided by the applicant does not show the exact location of the catchbasin. Connection into this structure will require that the applicant obtain an easement from the adjacent owner to be able to traverse the neighboring lot to facilitate connection. The applicant's engineer will be required to submit storm sewer calculations for review and approval. Sanitary Sewer and Watermain Sanitary sewer and watermain are both available within the right of way ofBrom's Boulevard. Elevations appear sufficient to serve the property.

SHOREWOOD, MINNESOTA 55331-8927 · (612) 474-3236 Mayor and City Council Brad Nielsen 6 June 1996 Faaberg, Zoning Violation Appeal Property - 4340 Enchanted Drive Mr. Vernon Faaberg, 4340 Enchanted Drive, is the owner of an adjoining outlot located to the north of his homestead property (see Exhibit A, attached). In May our office received a neighborhood complaint alleging that a dock had been constructed last year on Outlot 1 and that a new dock had recently been constructed nearby. Upon inspection of the property, two docks were found to existon Outlot 1 and a letter was sent to Mr. Faaberg (see Exhibit B), advising him that the docks were in violation of Shorewood's Zoning Code and that they must be removed by 24 May 1996. Since then the most recent dock has been removed, but Mr. Faaberg has appealed the zoning violation (see Exhibit C), stating that a 1958 covenant on the property provided dock rights to certain lots on Enchanted Island, and that the older of the two docks had existed since 1967. A copy of the covenant is attached as Exhibit D. . Staff checked with the City Attorney to see if a private protective covenant supersedes City zoning laws. Tim Keane has advised us that it does not. His opinion is forwarded under separate cover. We have conflicting stories as to when the older of the two docks was constructed. The original complaint stated that the dock appeared last year. Mr. Faaberg's letter states that the dock has been there since 1967. While we can investigate this discrepancy furthery it should be noted that Ordinance No. 43 (Exhibit E, attached), which fIrst set forth restrictions on docks, was adopted in January of 1965. If Mr. Faaberg's date is correct, the dock is an unlawful nonconforming use. There is also some question as to who used the dock in question, since the lots which benefIted from the covenant were vacant until the past three or four years. Mr. Faaberg's letter states that someone called City Hall to inquire if the City requires permits for docks. The person was advised, rightfully so, that we do not. We have, however, informed everyone who has specifIcally inquired as to dock rights for the subject property in the last several years that the City' s Code precludes docks where no home has been built. We have had a suffIcient enough number of inquiries in the past to have put the 7A, A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore Memo Re: Faaberg Dock Appeal 6 June 1996 Page two requirements into writing. The letter attached as Exhibit F was provided to Susan Johnson, one of the lot owners whose property is subject to the covenant, in July of 1995. It is the recommendation of this office and the City Attorney that the dock in question is in violation of Shorewood's Zoning Code and should be removed within 15 days. If you have any questions relative to this matter~ please contact Tim Keane or me prior to Monday night's meeting. cc: Jim Hurm Tim Keane Vernon Faaberg . . ) \ \ (.:; c~ \......r .... . . .... ~Idt I . ~'\ J".

Re: City Code Violation Outlot 1, Enchanted Gardens P.I.N. 30-117-23-23-0008 Dear Mr. Faaberg: Due to recent inquiries or complaints, it has come to our attention that docks are being constructed on property you own (Outlot 1, Enchanted Gardens) in violation of Section 1201.03 Subd. 14 of the City Code (Regulations Applicable to Shoreline Property) and must be removed no later than 24 May 1996. A copy of the Code section is attached for your review. . The City of Shorewood does not issue permits for residential docks, however, it has adopted, by reference, the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District regulations. The City Code also places certain other restrictions on docks and similar structures. Docks are considered to be accessory structures and, as such, are only allowed on properties where a principal use exists. In a residential zoning district, the principal use of the property would be a residence or house. Every occupied lakeshore lot is allowed one (1) dock for the sole use of the property's occupants. Docks existing on lakeshore land which is unbuildable due to its size, shape or other circumstances are nonconforming structures. These docks may be legal or illegal nonconforming structures depending on their "grandfathered" status which would relate to the age of their existence and regulations existing at that time. Legal nonconforming structures may remain in their original size, shape and location, but are not allowed to be increased in size or use. The City has the authority to cause the removal of illegal nonconforming structureS when presented with information which would sufficiently substantiate the age of a particular structure, thus providing evidence as to its "grandfathered" status. E-~".tb~+ e; A Residenrial Community on Lake Minneronka's Soum Shore . . Vemon Faaberg 13 May 1996 page two Failure to comply with these regulations will result in the City taking whatever action may be necessary to correct the violations at the property owner's expense. Your property will be reinspected for compliance on 24 May 1996. If you wish to appeal this matter to the City Council, you must do so, in writing, before 24 May 1996. If you have any questions relative to this matter, you should call the Planning Department at 474-3236. CITY OF SHOREWOOD ;3ZdGt~'(i' / /)d{~..J Bradley J.: ielSen Planning irector l' BJN:ph ~ J ,.

HONORABLE MAYOR CITY COUNCIL CITY OF SHOREWOOD BRADLEY J. NIELSEN Planning Direstor 5755 Country Club Road Shorewood MN 55331-8927 The purpose of this letter is to respond to Mr. Nielsen's letter directed to me dated May 13, 1996. I thought it would be appropriate for me to recite a bit about the history of this area. We purchased Lot 1, Block Three, Enchanted gardens from Leon D. Kennard, who originally platted this addition in, I believe, 1954. This purchase was in 1966. We did not acquire Outlot One until about 1974. Mr. Kennard installed a dock on that Outlot in 1967. It has been replaced twice due to disrepair since then, the most recent about three years ago by the current owner of Lot 15, Block 2, Enchanted Gardens, (David and Delores Skrien). The existing dock was placed in precisely the same spot as the previous 2, and is actually smaller in that previous versions were "L" shaped, whereas this one is straight. When we acquired the Outlot, therefore, that dock was in place. At about the same time, 1974, we also acquired Lots 13, 14, and 15, Block 2, Enchanted Gardens from Isabel L. Kennard, Leon's widow. Later we sold these 3 lots to Robert McGinty and gave as a part of his purchase, a license to put in a dock, but not any obligation to secure any permits for him or any purchaser from him. If you will refer to the Protective Covenant included in the original plat of Enchanted Gardens, you will determine that the same Outlot is subject to a right of lake access and dockage in favor of Lot 7 (Vik), Block 3; and Lot 8, (Johnson), Block 3, both in Enchanted Gardens. Since Shorewood approved this plat, I wonder, as an attorney practicing in real estate, whether the Council has the authority to prevent the reasonable exercise of this easement. E""~b;l G In summary, all Parties involved wish to cooperate in all ways possible in this matter. One of the persons who is a licensee from me, basically, states he inquired at my suggestion of the Shorewood clerk's office as to the necessity of a dock permit and was informed none was required. I must say that as a long time citizen of our city, I took some offense at the officious tone of Mr. Nielsen's letter. No one is trying to be a scofflaw here. It is actually to our personal best interests that no one dock their boats there. But wttat is right is right: I hope that the city and the persons trying to create a dockage situation reasonably in accord with acceptable practice can cooperate. I assure everyone, we are cooperative. . I have attempted to speak with Mr. Nielsen by telephone and have not been successful. I send this letter to be sure I make some kind of a response before his self-selected May 24, 1996, deadline. r!:ectfUlr 9!:jed; VE~ FWERG 7 VEF/lejf cc Lot 7, Block 3 Lot 8, Block 3 Lot 13, Block 2 Lot 14, Block 2 .

MINNESOTA 55331-8927 0 (612)474-3236 11 July 1995 Re: Ciry of Shorewood Dock Regulations To Whom It May Concern: The Ciry of Shorewood does not issue permits for residential docks, however, it has adopted. by reference, the Lake Nfinnewnka Conservation District regulations. The City Code does place certain other restrictions on docks and similar strUctures. Docks are considered to be accessory strUctures and as such are only allowed on properties where a principal use exists. In a residential zoning district, the principal use of the property would be a residence or house. Every occupied lakeshore lot is allowed one (1) dock for the sole use of the property's occupants. Docks existing on lakeshore land which is unbuildable due to its size. shape or other circumstances are nonconforming strucrures. These docks may be legal or illegal nonconforming structures depending on their "grandfathered" status which would relate to the age of their existence and regulations existing at that time. Legal nonconforming strUctures may remain in their original size, shape and location, but are not allowed to be increased in size or use. The Ciry has the right to cause the removal of illegal nonconfonning structures when presented with information which would sufficiendy substantiate the age of a particular strUcture, thus providing evidence as to its "grandfachered" statuS. Attached please a copy of Section 1201.03 Subd. 14 of the Ciry Code (Regulations Applicable to Shoreline Property) for your review. .

DATE: RE: Eureka Road Watennain Improvements Smithtown Road ("South Link") City Project 95-14 City Project 95-15 Plans and specifications for the installation ofwatennain and appurtenances have been prepared by OSM Associates, Inc. for Eureka Road from Smithtown Road to Birch Bluff Road, and along Smithtown Road from Boulder Bridge Drive to the City of Victoria Border. For reference, staff named this portion of Smithtown Road the "South Link" project for ease of reference since there are three projects currently under way along Smithtown Road. It was decided that the Eureka Road project and the south link project would be let as one contract since__ they both involve installation ofwatennain only. . Eureka Road Plans propose the construction of an 8 inch watennain along the west side of Eureka Road from Smithtown Road to Birch Bluff Road. In the areas of the wetland, it is proposed that polyethylene pipe with directional boring be used for approximately 535 feet. This should minimize disturbance to the area while keeping the project on schedule. Construction costs are estimated at $ 215,435 considering a 10 percent contingency. The approved feasibility report also recommended a seal coat in the fall following construction. This will be bid out after construction has been completed, or done as part of the City's up and coming seal coat projects. Total construction costs approved as part of the feasibility study is $ 244,660.35. It is estimated the a seal coat will cost approximately $13,800 which is within the budgeted amount in the feasibility report. #'6 A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore ....' "" ~ Eureka Road & South Link June 7, 1996 Page 2 of2 Smith town Road-South Link This portion of the project involves construction 1200 feet of 12 inch watennain along the west side of Smithtown Road from Boulder Bridge Drive to the Victoria border, and a metering station just prior to the connection to the Victoria water system. A portion of the pavement along Smithtown Road will be disturbed. It is anticipated that one lane of traffic will be open during peak periods of construction. . A metering station has also been included as part of this plans. A cabinet on the roadside will be provided such that readings can be obtained on a quarterly basis for the City of Victoria. Munitech will be . responsible for reading the meter as described. Construction costs are estimated at $130,425 as compared to the feasibility cost estimate of $ 126,650 which is within a reasonable range of financial feasibility. . .- CITY OF SHOREWOOD RESOLUTION NO.

DATE: July 7, 1996 RE: Smithtown Road Watermain Project from Country Club Road to Eureka Road south. City Project 95-16 On March 11, 1996 the City Council approved the feasibility report and ordered preparation of plans specifications and construction estimate for the extension ofwatermain and roadway reconstruction of Smithtown Road form Country Club Road to Eureka Road north. On May 28, 1996, I reported to the City Council that it was staff s recommendation that the plans and specifications be modified to include only the construction of watermain, without the reconstruction of the roadway. This is due to the questions being raised with regard to rights of ways and the ability for the City of Shorewood to utilize the entire 66 foot right of way indicated on the half section maps. It was recommended that the watermain be installed while staff continues to address the right of way issues. . Plans and specifications have been modified as described. A 16 inch diameter watermain is proposed to be extended along the project length under the existing pavement. Normally, water services would be extended out to the right of way line. In areas where residents contest the 66 foot right of way, water services would be extended out to the edge of pavement. At such time as the resident extends service from their house, they will be responsible for all costs incurred to repair or patch the roadway associated with the connection of their service. Estimated construction costs for the watermain projects are S 350,915. The feasibility report listed a watermain construction cost ofS 288,300. The additional construction costs estimated here are due to the patch and repair necessary by not reconstructing the roadway at this time. A resolution is included for your consideration.

DATE: RE: Street Reconstruction and Watennain for Strawberry Lane between Smithtown Road to West 162nd Street. City Project 95-16 On March 12, 1996 the City Council approved the feasibility report and ordered preparation of plans specifications and construction estimate for the extension of watermain and roadway reconstruction of Strawberry Lane. . Plans and specifications have been prepared using a 24 foot bituminous roadway with B612 concrete curb and gutter. A 12 inch diameter watennain is also proposed from Smithtown Road to the existing watermain at the intersection of Shorewood Oaks Drive. The plans also propose the use of the existing ponds at the intersection of Peach Circle and Smithtown Road. Modifications to the pond outlet will be required as part of this project. This easement area is across the J.D. Ridding property. The diameter of the pond outlet will be increased from an 18 inch diameter pipe to a 24 inch diameter pipe. The City currently owns a drainage and utility easement along this area. I have talked to Mr. Ridding and sent a letter of response to questions as to why the City was surveying this area. Mr. Ridding is still concerned as to potential impacts as the pipe is constructed through this area. Staffwill continue to meet with Mr. Bidding to address his concerns. Undoubtedly, Mr. Ridding desires to do away with the construction and have zero impact to the property. Reconstruciton of this storm sewer line is necessary to utilize the existing ponds. Failure to increase this outlet would require acquisition of property to construct an additional pond or additions on to the existing ponds. Estimated construction costs for the watermain projects are $ 495,353. The feasibility report listed a construction cost of$ 512,951.32 (24 foot width subtracting out trail costs listed in the feasibility report). This is within the estimated construction amount encumbered. A resolution is included for your consideration.

Motion passed 4/0. 1. PUBLIC HEARING - PRELIMINARY PLAT - LARSON ESTATES AwIicant: LocatiQn: Carl Zinn, representing Stephen and Lucinda Larson 20435 Radisson Road Chair Borkon announced the case and- reviewed the process for the public bearing procedure. Planning Director Nielsen presented a detailed staff analysis of the matter. Mr. Carl Zinn appeared with Stephen and Lucinda Larson. Mr. Zinn commended Planning Director Nielsen for improving the Larson's proposed subdivision. Chair Borkon opened the public bearing at 7:26 p.m. Joe Joyce, 5550 Shore Road. inquired if outlots C and D would be included with the primary resideDce. Nielsen confinued they would. Mr. Joyce also asked if the subdivided lots would have the easement to use Lot 11. Mr. Zinn stated he had received legal input in which he was informed the subdivided lots would have the same privileges as the original covenant with regard to Lot 11. . Nielsen explained the history surrounding Lot 11 and that some years ago, because the JUN-07-1996 10:01 RAMSEY COUNTY FAM I L Y CT 612 266 28S0 P. 03/08 . .~ PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES JUNE 4, 1996 - PAGE 2 property was ~dard in size, it was the subject of a CUP in which all of the property owners had aJiglrtto ~se Loc 11. Nielsen further explained the applicants had received legal input in whi~ tliJY _c;,,t()ld the addjtionallots would have the same rights as the larger parcel and these'ichts would-not be diminished by a subdivision. ;1- .. .. Mr. Larson stated his und~diDg the covenant travels with each of the subdivided pieces of property. Chair Borkon clarified the covenant applies only to bathing. Sherry Maxwell, 20480 Raddison Road, inquired if the City would request an opinion with regard to Lot 11 prior to the property being sold. Chair Borkon confirmed the Planning Connnission would be requesting an opinion from the City Attorney. Hearing no further testimony, Chair Borkon closed the public hearing at 7:34 p.m. Rosenberger requested the issue of tnmsference be reviewed and commented on by the City Attorney. He inquired of Nielsen if the creation of outlot B would cause more gerrymandering of the lot lines. Nielsen stated that would be true to some degree, although most of that occurs as a result of the City's requirement of the wetland dedication. Chair Borkon asked Mr. Zinn if the property which is for sale on Carrie Lane would abut outlot B. Mr. Zinn explained an outlot had been created in the Pearson subdivision which does not reach Marvin Olson's property. Nielsen added that outlot B was set aside to preserve the trees and the slope in tWit location as a part of the Peterson Division. Commissioner Rosenberger commented he is not comfortable with outlot B and of most concern would be the issue of hard cover. He inquired if a precedence had been set in which property owners were allowed access to an outlot so as to avoid the issue of hard cover. Nielsen advised it would be encouraged to acquire more land rather than exceed the 2S percent bard cover. Commissioner Turgeon noted Lot 3 is built up to rhe setback which would not allow any room for a deck or patio. She cautioned the applicants they may wish to leave more room for the benefit of future home owners for that purpose. It would be difficult 10 get a variance at a later date because there is no hardship. Mr. Zinn stated that was good advice and expressed his appreciation 10 Commissioner Turgeon. Chair Borkon inquired if outlot C would be joined with. outlot D and become a part of the existing Lot 2. Nielsen stated it currently is joined with outlot D. Separation occurs because of the City's wetland dedication requirement. In addition, the right-of-way for Shore Road cuts that lot in two. At the present time, it appears as one parcel with the Larson Estate property. In the platting process, the same situation cannot be shown and appears as outlets instead. Those parcels should not be -able to be sold separcltely, but should remain with the existing homestead parcel. Chair Borkon inquired if that would cause Lot 2 to become a JUN-07-1996 10:01 RAMSEY COUNTY FAMILY CT 612 266 2850 P.04/08 PLANNING COMMISSION MlNUrES JUNE 4, 1996 - PAGE 3 separated lot. Nielsen stated it does become separated by creation of the outlot which is subject to the city's dedication requirement. Chair Borkon inquired if the footprint on Lot 3 could be moved back. Nielsen stated the diagram reflects a building pad, the logical location for a building, however, the house may not take up all of the area and could also shift uphill. Within the building pad, the City would expect that decks and patios would be accommodated. Commissioner Rosenberger expressed concern over the issue with Lot 11. Nielsen stated it would be reasonable the City would not want to create more property owners who would have use of the lot. He further commented it t.hat was the City's concem. thai: the City Attorney be consulted with resp~t to whether or not the City. as part of the plat. can restrict _ that from happening. Chair Borkon asked if the property would have to be a P.U.D. for the City to place a condition on it. Nielsen advised the City can place reasonable restrictions on the property as a part of the subdivision approval. Mr. Larson addressed the Commission and related his distress over this issue and requested. the Commission allow him an opportunity to speak with other property owners with current covenants to see if it would be a problem to have two additional home owners use Lot II. He stated it is very difficult having the City trying to negate a COVenanl: which has been on the property for many years. Chair Borkon pointed out that at this point. the Commission was simply asking for some information from the City Attorney in regards to what the City may be able to do with regard to Lot 11. She stated her understanding it would be upsetting for the Larsons as far as the potential value of the property if they have access to Christmas Lake. Commissioner Turgeon stated she will not feel comfonable until the Planning Commission receives a legal opinion if the covenant is or is not transferrable with the subdivision and what can and cannot be done as far as covenantS. Mr. Larson expressed his concern that city government would inU1lde on his private property and his private covenant which has nothing to do with the City. Commissioner Rosenberger stated the Planning Commission is not taking issue with the applicants as to being right or wrong, however, they would like to have additional information. Chair Borkon clarified the issue is not a matter of one use, but of two additional uses. plus: a potential for three more families to be using Lot 11. She expressed her understanding the applicants want to utilize their propeI'o/ in the best way possible. Chair Borkon inquired how much tree removal would be allowed within the buffer area. Nielsen stated the buffer area was to be left in its natUral state. She further inquired about JUN-07-1996 10:01 RAMSEY COUNTY FAMILY CT 612 266 2850 P. 05/08 PLANNING COMMISSION MlNUI'ES JUNE 4, 1996 - PAGE 4 the setback. Nielsen explained the setback may be used as yard if it is graded for yard purposes. It can be graded for yard purposes and it can also be sodded and no buildings can occur on there. If trees are removed. they have to be replaced. The plans attempt to minimize tree removal, however. in most cases there are trees which come out. As a result of construction. anything remov~ would be replaced up to the eight trees per acre requirement. Turaeon moved, Rosenberger seconded recommending approval of a preliminary plat based on staff and engineering reeonunendations, with an additional recommendation that the applicant provide written documentation to future homeowners regardina an assessment for water and that staff obtain a legal opinion regarding passing for usaae for new homeowners to Lot 11. Chair Borkon noted she was aware there had been a problem with too many boats docking and that the Lot 11 area was meant to be a swimming beach. She inquired with regard to what would happen if three new families were added to Lot 11. Nielsen stated he was unsure how many boats are docked at this location. He was not aware of anything in either a Court decision or the ordinance which allows the docking of boats. however. this has been treated as though it were grandfathered in. Nielsen stated if the two new lots were to have some use of Lot 11, he would not expect to see more boats at those docks due to the fact grandfathered use is allowed to remain as is and as it has been used. Mr. Larson noted most of the homeowners had taken the covenant off of their title because of the availability of their own access. Commissioner Rosenberger Slated his only issue with this matter is whether or not the covenant is transferrable. Vote on Motion: Motion passed 4/0. Chair Borkan informed the applicants this matter will be brought before the City Council on June 10. 1996. Mr. Larson asked how be could facilitate the issue regarding Lot 11. Chair Borkon stated it would be helpful if the applicants provided a statement from their attorney which could be utilized at the City Council meeting as well as input from the City Attorney. 2. PUBLIC HEARING - C.U.P: FOR ACCESSORY SPACE OVER 1200 SQ. Fr. AD~licatlt; Location: Kevin Johns 26890 Edgewood Road Chair Borkon announced the case and asked. Planning Director Nielsen to review the matter. Mr. Johns appeared. and addressed the Planning Commission swing the reason for his request is that he needs more accessory space. He explained he is making a complete improvement of the home which was built in the 19508. He assured the Commission there is JUN-07-1996 10:02 RAMSEY COUNTY FAMILY CT 612 266 2850 P.06/08 PLANNING COMMISSION ~S JUNE 4, 1996 - PAGE 5 no occupation being performed out of the property. Chair Borkon opened public testimony at 8:26 p.m. Julie Scherer, 26930 Edgewood Road, stated she considers this to be a request for the expansion of a nonconfonning use in the area. She stated the S[JUcture is basically a three story apartment building. Ms. Schere:r stated this property looks like an apartment building and function as an apartment building since Mr. Johns purchased the property. She stated there have been continual renters occupying the lower level of the house and she is concerned, as a taxpayer, there is going to be continual pressure in residential zones to convert homes to apartment buildings and call them homes and be taxed as a home. Ms. Scherer stated living next door to Mr. Johns' property has had a negative effect 01l the value of her own home. She expressed her concern that zoning ordinances need to be enforced. Chair Borkon asked Nielsen to speak to the public and audience with regard to ordinance enforcement. Nielsen explained with regard to the subject property, the owner was previously cited for violation of-the zoning ordinance when he had four people living at the residence. Mr. Johns noted he had himself and three professionals living on the property. He explained he had not been aware of the existing ordinance when he bought the home which provides that a homeowner cannot havc more than two unrelated roommates. Since that time, he has complied with the ordinance and the roommate moved out of the property in the time allotted. Nielsen advised the Commission that a single family district is defIned as the traditional nuclear family consisting of husband, wife and children or as many as three adults unrelated by marriage or blood. He noted that'in Mr. Johns' case, the City had received a complaint there were more adults living there than the ordinance allowed. The City advised Mr. Johns to correct that and he did. Nielsen further advised the City's rental housing code which includes single family homes if the owner moves out and rents it out, that property is subject to the rental housing code the same as apartments and duplexes. With respect to boarding, in the case of three adults living in a single family dwelling, that would not require rental housing requirements. Chair Borkon inquired if boarding would assume only one facility with respect to kitchen and laundry. Nielsen stated in this particular case, there is a kitchen in the lower level. The code defInes a dwelling unit as having a separate kitchen facility, separate exit facilities and separate sanitation faciHties. In this particular case, the lower level had been closed off from the upper level thereby creating a separate dwelling unit and Mr. Johns was directed to reconnect the two levels resulting in a single family dwelling. Mr. Johns did comply with his request. JUN-07-1996 10:02 RAMSEY COUNTY FAMILY CT 612 266 2850 P.07/08 , ., PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES JUNE 4, 1996 - PAGE 6 Nielsen stated many of the large houses being constructed are includiDg kitchen facilities in the family room areas and in determining whether a dwelling was an apartment, the City would look for the combination of the three elements of kitchen, exits and sanitation facilities. Chair Borkon suggested it would be .helpfu1 in the future to have notation of any complaints made against a particular applicant included in the application materials which are provided to the Planning Commission for their review prior to the meeting. She expressed concern that had Ms. Scherer not appeared, the Commission would not be aware a prior complaint had been made in this regard. Nielsen noted that would be the purpose of the public hearing and would be addressed by someone appearing at the public hearing and voicing their concerns or writing a letter to that effect. Chair Borkon clarified she would like input as to - if it would be possible to have pertinent infonnation such as prior complaints listed on the application. Commissioner Rosenberger pointed out the Commission is actually looking at two different issues, use and the request which is being made. Chair Borkon stated her opinion the two issues are inherently related. Kirk Scherer, 26930 Edgewood Road, stated the applicant has, in the past, been in violation of the RIA zoning requirement. He stated if the C. U.P. were to be granted. he would like to see the Planning Commission and the City Council ask for some type of verification in the future that the applicant is in compliance with the zoning requirements. Hearing no further public comment, Chair Borkon closed the public hearing at 8:40 p.m. Commissioner Rosenberger stated from his perspective the situation does look suspicious especially with regard to a four car garage for a single homeowner. He pointed ou[ there are requirements as relates to C.U.P. and verification would bcjustified in this particular situation with respect to three people living in this house. Nielsen suggested monitoring the use of the property either by periodic inspection or discussions with neighbors. Commissioner Rosenberger inquired how to balance the issue of being allowed three unrelated adults, however, at one time. there could actually be six. people at the residence on a regular basis. Nielsen stated the Shorewood ordinance is more restrictive in that regard than either the building code or many other cities. It is common for the ordinances to define families as being as many as five unrelated. adults. DUE TQ MY SCHEDULE. THIS IS AS FAR AS I WAS ABLE TO GET ON TIm MINUTES.
