Aaenda Item #3A: This meeting and allows the nonconforming home and Christmas Lake Point. Aaenda Item #3B: This resolution approves a conditional use permit for the City to build a senior community center in the northeast corner of Badger Park. Approval requires a four- fifths vote. Aaenda Item #3C: Annually the City has budgeted $1,500 for the cost of Eurasian Water Milfoil inspection in Christmas Lake. This agreement will approve up to two inspections at $767 per inspection. ~. Aaenda Item #3D: Mr. Peterson requests approval of a revision to the final plat for Robert S.C. Peterson 2nd Addition, which was approved, but not recorded, in November of 1994. The revision simply incorporates the common driveway shared by the two lots into Lot 1. The Planning Director recommends approval. Aaenda Item #3E: This resolution clarifies that Jennifer McCarty is the non-voting City Council Liaison to the Shorewood Park Foundation. Aaenda Item #6A: Brian Fredrickson proposes to subdivide his property at 26115 Birch Bluff Road into two lots. Since the existing house will be less than 35 feet from the right-of- way of Third Street (an undeveloped r.o.w.) a setback variance is necessary. The Planning Commission recommends approval of the preliminary plat subject to recommendations contained in the Planner's and Engineer's reports. Approval requires a four-fifths vote. A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore ..~ . . .... City Page Council 2 Agenda April 10, 1995 Aaenda Item #6B: Mr. Corky Elsen constructed additional driveway and hardcover surfaces on his property at 5290 Howard's Point, contrary to his approved building permit and in violation of Shorewood zoning requirements. Despite having signed an escrow agreement ensuring that the violations would be corrected, Mr. Elsen requests approval to leave the driveway as built. Since the situation does not warrant a variance, the Planning Director suggested a minor P.U.D. as one means to resolve the problem. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to deny the concept and recommends that the violation be corrected. Aaenda Item #6C: This summary of the Flood Plain Management Regulations will be published, rather than the entire amendment. Approval requires a simple majori~y. Aaenda Item #6D: The Planning Commission is recommending that the City get more information on potential watermain extensions on Smithtown Road east to Eureka Road and Manitou Road north. A resolution expanding the previously authorized Engineer's feasibility report is enclosed. . Aaenda Item #6E: Daniel Luke requests additional time to comply with a Notice to Remove which was sent out in February. Since the appellant has made good progress toward compliance, the Planning Director recommends that he be given until 27 April to correct all violations. Aaenda Item #6F: Keelo Ohland requests additional time to comply with a Notice to Remove which was sent out in March. Although some of the items on the notice may be allowed to remain as part of a legal nonconforming business he operates on the property, violations of Chapter 501 must be corrected. The Planning Director recommends that all items be corrected by 8 May, after road restriction have been lifted. . Aaenda Item #7: Enclosed is a redraft of the resolution prepared for the last meeting establishing an Advisory Group to work with the City Council in preparing a watermain special assessment ordinance. Aaenda Item #8: This resolution makes appointments to the Watermain Special Assessment Advisory Group.

PLANNING - Report by Representative *~ REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES March 27, 1995 - PAGE 2 Commissioner Turgeon reviewed the actions taken and recommendations made at the Commission's March 21, 1995 meeting. A joint session with the Park Commission at the meeting resulted in agreement that the original site for the senior community center is preferred over the alternative site (details in the minutes). As part of the action plan to implement the updated Comprehensive Plan, it is suggested that a task force be established (composed of Park and Planning Commissioners, Councilmembers, snowmobile association members, and residents) to determine whether sound data is available to evaluate residents' concerns about after-hours snowmobile operations and excessive speed and to establish procedures to eliminate the problems. A. Motion to Direct Staff to Prepare Findings of Fact for a Setback Variance. Applicant: John Grable. Location: 4720 Bayswater Road. Nielsen stated this request was tabled pending research of alleged zoning violations in the Amesbury West P.U.D. He explained that preliminary review by the staff does not support the allegations, however, a final report has not been completed. Therefore, it is requested the matter be continued to the April 24 Council meeting. Mr. John Grable noted the original request was made on January 9. He stated that much of the research had been done and documentation supported the fact that additions like his request already exist in the development. He inquired whether he would have the opportunity to appear before the . Planning Commission again. Nielsen acknowledged that the applicant provided examples with his application. However, some of the information is incomplete and incorrect and a review of all the property files has not been completed. The applicant will be invited to the Commission's April 18 meeting and the staff report will be sent to him. Malam moved, McCarty seconded to continue to April 24, 1995 consideration 0 f the setback variance request of John Grable, 4720 Bayswater Road. Motion passed 5/0. B. Motion Approving the Site Plan for the First State Bank of Excelsior. Applicant: TSPIEOS Architects and First State Bank of Excelsior. Location: 19765 State Hwy.7. Nielsen stated the plans submitted by TSPIEOS Architects, representing the First State Bank of Excelsior, for a new bank facility to be located at 19765 State Highway 7 in the Waterford commercial development, are in compliance with zoning requirements and the Waterford P. U. D. . Development Agreement. A landscape plan that meets or exceeds that requested has been submitted. A sign plan that meets ordinance and the P.U.D. requirements has been submitted. Approval of the site plan and a sign permit is recommended. The staff report is detailed in Nielsen's 02-28-95 memorandum and attachments. The sign permit request is detailed in the Project Architect's 02-28-95 letter. Mr. Nick Reuhl, representing TSPIEOS, introduced Mr. Dave Peterka, Executive Vice President of the Bank. Mr. Reuhl, using visual drawings, described the site plan, the building and its location, parking, drive-through design, landscape, and signage plans. During discussion, Reuhl and Nielsen responded to Councilmembers' questions. Stover moved, McCarty seconded to approve the site plan and a sign permit for the First State Bank of Excelsior, 19765 State Highway 7. Motion passed 5/0. C. Motion to Direct Staff to Prepare Findings of Fact Regarding a Setback Variance and a Variance to Expand a Nonconforming Structure. Applicant: Richard Kowalsky. Location: 5740 Christmas Lake Point. Nielsen stated the applicant owns an existing home at 5740 Christmas Lake Point that is substandard in terms of setbacks. The property is narrow and the configuration is such that the . . REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES March 27, 1995 - PAGE 3 Christmas lake shore setback results in little buildable area. Kowalsky intends to add to the home and to build a 2-car detached garage. The addition consists of levels to accommodate bedroom space on the southern most portion of the east side of the house. The garage, built into the steep slope extending along the east side of the property, will be as far away from the lake as possible. Revisions to the original proposal now maintain an average setback of 30.5 feet. Because of the height of the uppermost bedroom level, significant grading and landscaping.. is required to fully screen the lowest level of the southern end of the house so only 3 levels of the home can be seen from the lake. The Planning Commission recommends approval of the revised plan with the condition that a landscape and grading plan be completed to limit the view of the lowest level of the south end of the house from the lake. Mr. Kowalsky, the applicant, and Michaela Mahady, the architect, used a model of the property to describe the proposed plans for the garage, additions, and landscaping. Kowalsky described each level noting that the total height does not exceed that allowed by the ordinance. He accepted the landscape and grading recommendations of the staff. During discussion, the Councilmembers recognized the constraints of the property, commended the creative design, and reiterated its commitment to preservation of natural aesthetic views from the lake. McCarty moved, Stover seconded to direct the staff to prepare findings of fact regarding a setback variance and a variance to expand a nonconforming structure requested by Richard Kowalsky, 5740 Christmas Lake Point, with the proviso that an acceptable landscape and grading plan be submitted. Motion passed 5/0. D. Motion to Direct Staff to Prepare Findings of Fact Regarding a C.U.P. for a Senior Community Center. Applicant: City of Shorewood. Location: 5745 Country Club Rd. Nielsen referred to the 03-05-95 staff report which reviews the plans submitted by TSP/EOS Architects for construction of a 7400 square foot, single-story senior community center on northeast corner of the City Ha1l/Badger Park site. Since that date, the Planning and Park Commissions met jointly as previously reported to discuss alternative locations on the site. Nielsen reviewed the staff report which concludes that the plans meet or exceed the side yard setback, landscaping, and parking requirements. With respect to the alternative site, a request for funds to conduct additional soil testing in that location is before the Council. The consensus of the Park and Planning Commissions is that the northeast corner remains the preferred location despite concern regarding overflow parking for rental activities when the need for parking may exceed that required by the ordinance. Convenience and distance between the center's parking and the City Hall lot was a specific concern. The Commissions conceded that while the alternative location may be a superior site for the center, the additional related costs precluded further consideration and expenditure of that location. The Commissions unanimously recommend approval of the conditional use permit to construct the senior community center in the northeast corner of the City Ha1l/Badger Field site. During Council discussion, Mr. Rick Wessling, representing TSP/EOS, described and answered questions with respect to the driveway/street to the center. The driveway will be 24 feet wide and adequate access, turnaround, and clearance for emergency equipment is provided. Stover moved, McCarty seconded to direct the staff to prepare a findings of fact regarding a C.U.P. for construction of a Senior Community Center in the northeast corner at 5745 Country Club Road. Motion passed 5/0. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES March 27, 1995 - PAGE 4 Benson moved, Malam seconded to deny the request for funds to conduct additional soil testing on the City Hall/Badger Park property since the senior community center will be located on the original site. Motion passed 5/0. Benson expressed appreciation to the Park and Planning Commissions for their time and insightful consideration of this project. Mr. Reuhl clarified that the alternate site suggestion originated with TSP/EOS during its conceptual design work of the project. The basis for the recommendation was to provide information during the decision-making process as to the best long-term location for the center on the entire property. The Council expressed appreciation for the efforts of the architectural firm. E. Motion to Direct Staff to Prepare a Findings of Fact Regarding a c.U.P.lP.U.D. for Shared Driveway Accesses and Hardcover Ratios. Applicant: Corky Elsen. Location: 5290 & 5300 Howards Point Road. Mayor Bean stated a letter received from an attorney representing the applicant, Corky Elsen, requests that consideration of the applicant's request be postponed. Stover moved, Benson seconded to table to April 10, 1995, action on a motion to direct staff to prepare a findings of fact for a C.U.P./P.U.D. for shared driveway . accesses and hardcover ratios requested by Corky Elsen, 5290 & 5300 Howards Point Road. Motion passed 5/0. F. Motion to Adopt an Amendment to Zoning Code Regulating Swimming Pool Fence Enclosures. Nielsen reviewed the background to this issue that began with a resident's concern regarding the City's current requirement for swimming pool fences. A number of nonconforming properties that existed prior to adoption of the ordinance were grandfathered. These properties were informed of the nonconformance. In the interest of protection of children, the resident requested an ordinance amendment to eliminate the grandfather rights to provide that all swimming pool fences be brought into conformity. Following extensive discussion over the past several months, including a public hearing, the Planning Commission recommends (with. I opposing vote) adoption of a reasonable compromise amendment that requires that all swimming pools with nonconforming fences existing prior to July . 1, 1985 be brought into conformance upon change of ownership of the property on which the pool is located. Notice of this requirement would be recorded on all parcels of land on which conforming fences are located to inform new owners of the requirement. This amendment would speed up the process of bringing the properties into conformance yet allow the current owner continued use of the existing property. During Council discussion, Nielsen and Planning Commissioner Turgeon responded to questions. Factors considered included: public comments, pool fencing as it relates to lake setbacks, perimeter fencing, gates and locks, enforcement and inspection, public safety, and parental and pool owners' responsibility and awareness. Mayor Bean stated questions regarding enforcement and of what constitutes appropriate swimming pool enclosure concern him. Malam favored requiring that nonconforming pool fencing be brought into compliance immediately. McCarty moved, Stover seconded to adopt ORDINANCE NO. , "An Ordinance Amending Chapter 1201 of the Shorewood City Code Relating to Zoning Regulations." Motion failed 3/2. Bean, Benson, and Malam voted nay. G. Consideration of a Resolution Adopting Comprehensive Plan Amendments on an Interim Basis. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES March 27, 1995 - PAGE 5 Nielsen sta~ed the Planning Commission recommends Council adoption of the 1995 Compreh~nsIve Plm: Update, subject to revision, on an interim basis pending approval by the MetroI?o~tan ~ouncIl. He noted additional work is required before submission to the Metropolitan CouncIl. mcludmg Introductory Section, graphics, and land use and transportation projections. The Update IS c~mplete, however, with respect to dealing with local issues. There will be opportunity for final reVIew of the document before submission to the Metropolitan Council and the adjoining communities in June 1995. During discussion, the Council recognized the valuable work of the Commissions and the input from residents during the neighborhood meetings and public hearing. Stover noted that housing is not covered in the document. She expressed particular concern that the lack of affordable housing in the City could jeopardize the current level of funding through property tax distribution to the City. Nielsen commented on the matter and explained that a housing plan is to be prepared and submitted separately to the Metropolitan Council. Benson moved, Malam seconded to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 95-22, "A Resolution Adopting the 1995 Comprehensive Plan Update for the City 0 f Shorewood," on an interim basis. Motion passed 5/0. . H. Motion to Adopt an Amendment to the Flood Plain Regulations-Chapter 1101 of the City Code. Nielsen explained that the City amended its Flood Plain Regulations in October 1993 to comply with state and federal law changes. Adoption of the amendment was subject to review and approval by the Department of Natural Resources. Since then, the DNR cited areas for modification to comply with its requirements and to maintain the City's eligibility for the federal flood insurance program. Nielsen reviewed the revisions which are primarily technical in nature (Nielsen's 03-17-95 memorandum). The Planning Commission recommends adoption of the proposed ordinance. During discussion, Nielsen responded to Councilmembers' questions. Stover moved, McCarty seconded to adopt ORDINANCE NO. 298, "An Ordinance Amending Chapter 1101 of the City Code, Flood Plain Regulations." Motion passed 5/0. . Mayor Bean recessed the meeting at 9 p.m. and reconvened at 9:05 p.m. 6. CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING A TASK FORCE TO RESEARCH WATERMAIN ASSESSMENTS Mayor Bean summarized the background to the proposed resolution that would establish a water system assessment advisory committee as it relates to the 3-phased expansion of the municipal water system as included in the Comprehensive Plan. Voting members of the Committee would be 3 Shorewood residents; nonvoting members would be representatives of the Council and Planning Commission, the city administrator, finance director, and city engineer. The Committee's purpose would be to review and make recommendations to the Council on policy questions regarding water system special assessment and financing. Stover objected to creation of the Committee because the ultimate responsibility for policy development and approval is that of the Council. She pointed out that input from interested residents could still be requested, staff time would be better utilized, and Councilmembers would be totally involved in discussion, deliberation, and decision-making. She noted that historically, the Council has failed to act upon recommendations of such committees. Bean, Benson, Malam, and McCarty stated the committee concept is not intended to preclude in any way the Council's duties and responsibilities, but recognizes the value of input from residents. 4 REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MINUTES March 27, 1995 - PAGE 6 The Council considered whether the committee concept should be revised or whether work session dates be set for Council to begin the work on policy questions related to financing the expansion of the water system. Following discussion, the Councilmembers agreed to appoint one resident from each quarter of the City to participate in Council work sessions related to water policy. Subsequently, the Council set study/work sessions dates to discuss water-related policies on April 12, April 26, May 10, and May 24, 1995. 7. CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION ORDERING PREPARATION OF A FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR WEST END WATER IMPROVEMENTS Mayor Bean reviewed the 3 improvements proposed to be made to the Boulder Bridge Water System. The Engineer will study the proposed improvements and report to the Council as to whether each proposed improvement is feasible, whether it should be made as proposed in connection with some other improvement, and the estimated cost of the recommended improvement. Dresel stated the study will provide assistance in developing the water assessment policy. Hurm noted that while the petition received in connection with the Heritage development improvement was deemed invalid, a proper petition is forthcoming. During discussion, the staff responded to questions regarding the improvements. The cost of the . study is estimated at $8,000. Stover moved, Benson seconded to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 95-23, "A Resolution Ordering Preparation of Report on Water System Improvements." Motion passed 5/0. 8. DISCUSSION OF POLICY ISSUES Closure to Sump Pump Program Hurm directed the Council's attention to a proposed letter to be sent to 11 individuals whose properties remain uninspected for compliance under the City's sump pump program. It is recommended that to bring closure to the program, the owners be notified that a satisfactory inspection must be completed by May 1, 1995 or all surcharge fees and penalties will be applied to the property and will not be waived in the future. Following discussion, the Council concurred with the recommendation as outlined by Hurm and . agreed that the letter be sent to owners of property not in compliance with the sump pump program. 9. LMCD - Report by Representative Bob Rascop. None. 10. ADMINISTRATOR AND STAFF REPORTS Hurm directed the Council's attention to a City information flyer to be distributed to residents and requested early submission of changes and suggestions. 11. MAYOR AND COUNCILMEMBER REPORTS Stover noted that upon her recent return to the City, residents reported on the successful neighborhood meetings conducted on the updated Comprehensive Plan. 12.

That the Subject Property is located in an R-IA Single-Family Residential zoning district and is also subject to the requirements of the "s" Shoreland (overlay) District. 2. That the site is unique in that required setbacks on the property result in a virtually unusable buildable area, less than 10 feet in depth. 3. That due to setback requirements, nothing could be built on the property without a variance. 3,A. . . 4. That the easterly side of the site is characterized by severe topography. 5 . That structures on adjacent lots to the north and south are closer to the shoreline than 75 feet, establishing an average setback of 30.5 feet. 6. That the proposed structural alteration is contained within the "footprint" of the existing structure and will be located behind the average setback line referred to in 5. above. 7 . That the proposed garage will be located behind the average setback line referred to in 5. above. 8. That the Applicants propose to remove portions of existing decks which encroach into the lake shore setback area. 9. That hard surface area on the property, including the new garage, will be approximately 24 percent. 10.

REVIEW AGENDA There were no changes or additions. 4. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Trettel moved, Martin seconded, to approve the minutes of Tuesday, February 28, 1995. Motion passed 4/0. Colopoulos abstained. 5. REPORT ON SENIOR COMMUNITY CENTER JOINT WORK SESSION HELD MARCH 21. 1995 - FURTHER DISCUSSION Colopoulos reported the Planning Commission recommend to the Council to build the Senior Community Center at the original site, at the far end of Badger Park near County Road 19. They felt this would minimize the costs involved. The next step is to raise the money to fund the project. Hurm said a non-profit corporation will raise the money and the five cities involved will donate funds. Hurm reported the Mayor will be meeting with the other cities in April and May to work out the details of the cooperative agreements. It could be six months or longer before the actual ground breaking. 6. REVIEW 1994 BUDGET Hurm reported the Parks 1994 budget was over $15,000, but with good reasons. He said the Public Works salaries were over $6,000 due to installation and clean up work of the playground equipment installed at Silverwood Park. General supplies budget decreased because the City does not have to ag line the trail anymore from $19,000 (1994) to $16,000 (1995). Hurm noted the part- time salaries were increased to $23,000, enough for three employees during the summer. He also stated that the 1995 budget ($165,931) is about the same as 1994 ($165,352). The 1995 Planning budget decreased compared to 1994. It was significantly higher in 1994 because of the usage of a park planner, update of the trail map, and other projects that were going on. Hurm felt we could do without the park planner and do the work in house. 7. REPORT ON PARK FESTIVAL MEETING HELD MARCH 22. 1995 :Jt5 - .1 SHOREWOOD PARK COMMISSION MINUTES TUESDAY, MARCH 28, 1995 Page 2 of 3 Trettel reported there is going to be soccer/softball tournaments going on the same day as the Park Festival. She considered changing the date of the Festival but the entertainment and food have already been scheduled. Hurm said there is lack of communication between the City and Minnetonka Community Education Services (MCES). The City should have notified MCES of the planned Festival at Freeman and MCES should have verified with the City if there were any events planned before they scheduled the tournament. Hurm will call Deb Malmsten at MCES to clarify if soccer and/or softball tournament. He will also suggest to MCES, who does the scheduling, that the athletic association hosting the tournament on the same day as the Festival have limited use of the fields and no concessions. Hurm will report back to Trettel. Trettel reported there will not be hot air balloon rides because of the insurance involved. There will be a dunk tank and a treasure hunt. 8. REVIEW AND PLAN 1995 PARK IMPROVEMENTS -.JIM HURM AND DON ZDRAZIL . Hurm reported on the following park improvements for 1995: Freeman: 1) Install drain tile at Field #5 and playground area. The material cost would come out of the general operating budget and the manpower from the salary budget. McCarty noted Jerry Wenkus volunteered to get the materials for this project. 2) Build a picnic shelter and clearing for picnic area. 3) Have Public Works mark off the areas where the fountain, picnic area/shelter, and volleyball/tennis courts are scheduled to be located for the Festival so the public could get an idea of the improvements to come. Badger: 1) If the roadway to the proposed Senior Community Center needs to be expanded, have Public Works move hockey rink about 30 feet south. Don Zdrazil, Public Works Director, commented it would be more expensive to move hockey rink then to tear it down and rebuild. He said the City also needs to consider moving the lights. Hurm said there would have to be some trees removed and the free skating rink will need to be expanded. The City will advise Public Works by August 1995 if the hockey rink will have to be moved this season. . Cathcart: 1) Install new playground equipment with the help of John Steinhibel, volunteer foreman for Cathcart. It was discussed that the Park Commission will review the playground equipment bids in May 1995 and have it installed by this summer or fall. 2) Construct parking lot. 3) Relocate ballfield which involves grading, moving fence, and seeding. 4) Need to rewire lights. 5) Replace current warming house with a rental trailer for 1995 season. Manor: 1) Construct parking lot. 2) Landscape open area. 3) Install charcoal grills and picnic tables. 4) Replace floor inside warming house (warped from water run-oft). 5) Install floor mats inside warming house. Silverwood: 1) Need to install ground cover in the small area between the two slides. 2) Finish landscaping the trees and bushes by the hydrant. This is contracted with Wilson. 3) Install a one- sided park sign to face the street with "Silverwood Park, City of Shorewood". 9. SET DATES AND TIMES FOR PARK TOURS The following schedule was agreed upon for the park tours: .... ,. SHOREWOOD PARK COMMISSION MINUTES TUESDAY, MARCH 28, 1995 Page 3 of 3 Tuesday.

MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR George Harrison. 24710 AmIee Road, stated he is not against snowmobiles within the City limits but does not want them allowed on the trail. There are risks of having pedestrians and snowmobiles on the same narrow trail. Harrison felt there are a lot of non-resident snowmobilers using the trail on the western and northern boundaries of the City because it is easy access. He said the trail is used by more snowmobilers than pedestrians during the winter season. McCarty reported that Council decided to leave the wording in the CIP as is "prohibiting snowmobiles on the trail". She commented that there is a potential risk of someone getting hurt . because there is not enough room on the trail for both pedestrians and snowmobiles. Hurm added that the CIP was just passed and it was discussed to bring a resolution to the Council to establish a task force who would research the issue of snowmobiles on the trail and gather good data to help reach a fIrm decision. McCarty commented that the task force should try and reach a fInal decision before the next season, the others agreed. 11. COMMISSIONER REPORTS No report. 12. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business, Martin moved, Colopoulos seconded, to adjourn the meeting at 9:03 p.m. Motion passed unanimously. . RESPECTFULL Y SUBMITTED. Marlene S. Haptonstall, Park Secretary /"-~ '" MAYOR Robert Bean COUNCIL Kristi Stover Bruce Benson Jennifer McCarty Doug Malam 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 4 March 1995 . Birchbluff Lakeview Addition - Preliminary Plat 405 (95.05) BACKGROUND . Mr. Brian Fredrickson requests preliminary plat approval to divide his property, located at 26115 Birch Bluff Road (see Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached), into two lots. The property is zoned R-1C, Single-Family Residential and contains 68,118 square feet of area. The applicant proposes to plat the property into two lots as shown on Exhibit B. As can be seen on Exhibit B, the property is low on both the north and south ends and rises approximately 20 feet in the center. The property is currently occupied by an existing home which is accessed by a private road located on the east side of the site. The access road is located in the right-of-way of Third Street, a platted street which has never been built. At the direction of staff the applicant proposes to dedicate an additional 12.5 feet of right-of- way to increase the width of Third Street, bringing it to 37.5 feet in width. An additional 12.5 feet from the east side of the street will ultimately bring 'it into compliance with Shorewood's standard street width. The proposed r;o.w. dedication results in the existing house being too close to Third Street by five feet, for which the applicant requests a variance. The applicant's request letter is attached as Exhibit C. ISSUES AND ANALYSIS A. Third Street. The private road located in the Third Street r.o.w. currently serves the applicant's home and the homes at 26075 and 26045 Birch Bluff Road. The new lot will be accessed directly from Birch Bluff Road. The additional right-of-way is necessary in the event Third Street is ever built to serve undeveloped property to the east of the subject property. An area plan prepared by the City several years ago showed Third Street and Clara Avenue being constructed as a cul-de-sac A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore =t~A' Re: Birchbluff Lakeview Addition Preliminary Plat 4 March 1995 street to serve Blocks 6 and 7 of Mann's Addition to Birch Bluff (see Exhibit A). The additional 12.5 feet needed to bring Third Street up to 50 feet will come from the property on the east side of Third Street in the future. B. Lot Size. Although both of the proposed lots comply with the minimum size requirements of the R-IC zoning district (i.e. 20,000 square feet; 100 feet wide), the majority of the buildable area of Lot 1 ends up being quite low. The proposed house location shown on Exhibit B shows a house pad situated at a reasonable elevation, but it does not comply with R -1 C setback requirements. . The solution to this problem is to move the common lot line as far to the south as possible but not closer than 10 feet from the existing house. Exhibit D shows the lot line moved to the south approximately 30 feet. As can be seen much more of the buildable area of the lot is on the higher ground. C. Grading. Drainage and Utilities. As part of the final plat for this property, the applicant should be required to prepare a grading plan for Lot 1. The grading plan should show how access will be provided to the building pad. It should also show how site drainage will be handled, and a proposed lowest floor elevation. The grading and drainage plans must be subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. The preliminary plat currently shows five-foot drainage and utility easements on the new common property line. These must be increased to 10 feet. RECOMMENDATION . Based upon the preceding it is recommended that the following items be resolved as part of the final plat: 1. Lot 1 should be enlarged as shown on Exhibit D. 2. Grading, drainage and utilities should be subject to review and approval by the City Engineer. The Engineer should address the drainage issues raised by nearby residents. 3 . As part of the final plat approval the applicant must pay one sewer connection charge (LSSAC) of $1000 and one park dedication fee of $750. Credit is allowed for the lot with the existing house on it. 4. The applicant must submit a fmal.plat within six months of the Council's approval of the preliminary plat. cc: Jim Hurm Tim Keane Joel Dresel Brian Fredrickson - 2- ..

The property to be subdivided consists of 1.5 acres with road frontage on Birch Bluff Road and 3rd Street, an undeveloped street (currently a driveway) platted at 25 feet in width. Of the 1.5 acres, .5 acres will become a new single family building lot and 1 acre will remain with the existing house. It is my understanding that the City requires platted streets to be no less than 50 feet in width. Toward meeting this standard, and as a requirement of subdivision, I am willing to grant an easement of 12.5 feet of property along the length of 3rd Street The existing house is currently positioned approximately 43 feet from the current platted boundary of 3rd Street Widening 3rd Street by an additional 12.5 feet will cause the distance of the existing house from 3rd Street to become 30.5 feet, approximately 4.5 feet under the 35 foot front yard setback requirement The existing house is not being modified in any way. There are no plans that I am aware of to actually develop 3rd Street The need for this variance arises from the easement of 12.5 feet of property along the length of 3rd Street as a requirement for subdivision. Benefits to the City include the widening (platted) ofJrd Street from the current 25 feet to 37.5 feet and the creation of an additional residential lot .

Our opposition is based on the following facts: a- The proposed parcel is part of a large water run off area, sloped from 956.0+, to 934.0-, a drop of 22 feet in approximately 125 feet, or an average 18% grade. b- At the foot of this slope is a siltation pond area which collects over one foot of water after a moderate rain. c-Building on this location will destroy some existing natural brush cover causing fast water run off and potential erosion. d-Faster run off would more more quickly fill the existing siltation ponding area, causing greater wetland water backup. e-The pond area flows under Third street (which serves only driveways) to lot 10 (Michael Newberg property) which has a history of water back up. This area will flood to over a foot in depth after a moderate rain. This flooding would be further aggravated by removal of brush cover and possible . loss of ponding on the proposed subdivision. f-Upon leaving lot 10 this water flows though a constricting pipe under Birch Bluff Road (to Birch Bluff upper Mann Division) which is the cause of ponding on this lot. g-This run off water then flows along a swail between lots 21 (James Vrasper) and 22 (James Russel), directly into Lake Minnetonka. Destruction of brush cover and possible loss of the siltation pond will certainly carry more dirt and debris into Lake Minnetonka. h-The swail between lots 21 and 22 is shallow. After a moderate rain water can swell into lot 22. i-The swail between lots 21 and 22 can remain wet and soggy long after a moderate rain. This would likely be aggravated ~and ~o~i)nue ~ng7f with the proposed.subdiV~~/~ ~ ~ ~ (tI. u ~ 7I1~i. /F~~ Leo C. and Marcia J. Meloche CC C. strauss, DNR Hydrologist-K. George, atershed Dist. Engr.

M~P - 6 \995 I would like it noted that we oppose the subdivision of the Brian Fredrickson property located at 26115 Birch Bluff Rd. This is because of the potential increase to an existing water drainage problem relating to this property and affecting my property located at 26045 Birch Bluff Rd. This problem is caused by fast rainwater run off from a large area of approximately 22 lots with steep sloping terrain. A majority of this water converges in my front yard because of its low elevation, sometimes flooding it to a depth of over 14" . The water then runs through a small drain tile to lake Minnetonka often taking as long as a week completely drain. This flooding has increased as woods and brush have been cleared and new houses built within this problem area. I am convinced any more development will increase this flooding condition. . ;~~4~ Jt~L/,j41e1t Michael and Susal}"Newberg v ~ . , -.-.".-;.-. \:;;.::/..... ,5,--:;2- l':r- . {;. (!'

Nielsen City Planner City of Shorewood Shorewood, MN 55331 . Re: Birch Bluff Lakeview Preliminary Plat City File 405 (95.05) OSM File 5572.00 Dear Mr. Nielsen: Per your memo of 16 March 1995, we offer the following comments on your questions: 1) Due to the relatively small addition of impervious surface from the proposed new dwelling, it is unlikely that any large-scale impacts on the downstream properties will occur. According to the runoff results calculated by Mr. Knaeble, the total runoff volume in the lOO-year event will increase about 18 percent. This is a relatively small change, especially in light of the very small volume difference involved (lO20 cubic feet, or 0.02 acre-feet). . Perhaps more importantly, the culvert under "Third Street" should easily be able to handle the increased runoff rate. Using the raw data supplied by Mr. Knaeble, the runoff rate that must be handled by the existing culvert in the 100-year event will increase from about 1.8 cubic feet per second (CFS) under existing conditions to 2.1 CFS with the proposed changes. The existing culvert will easily handle these types of rates, assuming that there is a positive outlet to Lake Minnetonka from the outlet of this culvert (i.e. how well does the culvert under Birch Bluff function?). 2) To improve the drainage in this area, a positive outlet to Lake Minnetonka must be developed. The Preliminary Plat shows an inlet to a culvert under Birch Bluff Road, but it is unclear where this culvert outlets. Finding the outlet, followed by cleaning and perhaps televising the line would probably answer a lot of questions about its capacity to provide drainage to the area. As a final comment, please note that the elevations of the low areas abutting ''Third Street" are very close to the high water mark of lake Minnetonka. Therefore, it may be H:\5572.oo\ CIVIL \03179S.BJN =1\ (oA'a Equal Opportunity Employer Mr. Bradley J. Nielsen City Planner City of Shorewood March 17, 1995 Page 2 safe to assume that the wetlands are closely associated hydrologically with the Lake. If this is the case, the level of water in the wetlands may depend much more on the level of Lake Minnetonka than on surface runoff and drainage to and from them.

(612) 474-3236 :MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: RE: FILE NO.: Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council Brad Nielsen 1 March 1995 Elsen, Corky - Proposed P.D.D. 405 (95.04) BACKGROUND Mr. Corky Elsen recently completed construction of a home at 5290 Howard's Point Road (see Site Location - Exhibit A, attached). The permit for the home was based upon an approved site plan (Exhibit B) which conformed to Shorewood's zoning requirements for the R-IA/S, Single-Family ResidentiallShoreland district. The approved plan included a driveway with a . "T" turnaround. As part of the fmal inspection of the home it was discovered that the driveway had been enlarged to loop back to the street, and patios were added on the lake side of the house which were not shown on the approved plan (see Exhibit C). This results in two zoning violations: 1) too many driveways for the amount of street frontage; and 2) excess hard cover area - approximately 35 percent rather than 25 percent. The applicant was allowed to occupy the structure, subject to his entering into an escrow agreement in which he agreed to correct the violation (see Exhibit D). Mr. Elsen now wishes to explore alternatives to removing the excess driveway and hard cover. In order to comply with the intent of the Zoning Code, the applicant proposes to limit the number of driveways and hard surface area on the vacant lot which he owns to the south of the subject property (see Exhibit E). To accomplish this he proposes a limited planned unit development (P.D.D.) for which he has requested a conditional use permit. The northerly lot with the house on it contains 35,456 square feet of area and has 170 feet of frontage on Howard's Point Road. Existing hard cover on the site totals 12,666 square feet, or 36 percent. The southerly vacant lot contains 45,080 square feet of area and has 244 feet of frontage on the street. The applicant proposes to record a protective covenant which would limit the southerly lot to one driveway and 7468 square feet of hard cover area. These limitations are set forth in his proposed Declaration and Notice of Restrictions attached as Exhibit F. A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore ~CDB . . Re: Elsen, Corky Proposed P.D.D. 1 March 1995 ANAL YSIS/RECOMMENDATION Section 1201.03 Subd. 5.d.(6)(j) of the Zoning Code limits the number of driveway accesses to one per 120 feet of street frontage. Whereas the applicant's northerly lot (shown as Parcel A) is allowed one driveway access, the southerly lot (Parcel B) will be allowed to have two driveways. The applicant proposes to swap the rights of the two properties. This restriction is set forth in provision .1.) of the applicant's declaration. Section 1201.26 Subd. 5.a.(5) of the Zoning Code limits the amount of impervious surface on a lot to 25 percent of the lot area. With 12,666 square feet of hard cover, Parcel A has nearly 36 percent of its area covered with impervious surface. Similar to the driveway issue the applicant proposes to transfer hard cover rights from Parcel B to Parcel A. Provisions 2.) of the applicant's declaration addresses this. It must be stated that this request is stretching the use of planned unit development. The applicant initially proposed to resubdivide the two lots, gerrymandering the common lot line so that Parcel A had 240 feet of frontage. This would have resulted in extremely poor lot design, approval of which would not have been recommended. Another alternative which was considered was a variance request. The request did not qualify, however, since reasonable use of the lot could be made and the circumstances necessitating the variance were brought on by the owner or his representatives. A liberal view of this request suggests that the two lots, taken as a whole, could have three driveways, which is what is proposed. Similarly, the two lots could have 20,134 square feet of impervious surface. If Parcel A has 12,666 square feet of the total allowable hard cover, restricting Parcel B to 7468 square feet would result in no more than 25 percent for the total property . It is worth noting that a portion of the hard cover on Parcel A consists of landscape rock over plastic. Shorewood's policy has been to not count landscape areas if they are covered with porous landscape fabric. This is important because the proposed 7468 square feet of hard cover for Parcel B is considered to be unrealistic. A future owner of Parcel B will likely want more lot coverage than 17 percent. Although the applicant's declaration proposes to allow additional future hard cover by reducing hard cover on Parcel A, it is recommended that this problem be addressed now.. It is suggested that the rock landscape areas be redone with landscape fabric. The resulting hard cover should then be provided to Parcel B. If this transfer of development rights is considered reasonable, it is recommended that the applicant be granted concept and development stage approval for the P.D.D. Final plan approval should include a revised hard cover calculation based on changing landscape plastic to fabric. As a last note the protective covenants should be amended to include the City as a signator. That way, any future amendment of the declaration must involve the City. cc: Jim Hurm Tim Keane Corky Elsen Jim Parker - 2 - / /.

He has caused a set of protective covenants to be drafted ~r your review to insure that your ordinances are met on the property that he owns. He is making application for a PUD on his two adjacent tracts so that he can take advantage of the total area and frontage of both tracts. He is vacationing in Florida at this time but has asked me to make application for him. We have prepared a survey of the properties and attach that to our application. He asked me also to mention to you that there are other properties in the neighborhood with more than one driveway entrance that do not meet the ordinance requirement of 120 feet per drive. He intends to meet that requirement for the PUD but points out the other properties to show that a double entrance driveway would not be out of character for the neighborhood. A couple of examples would be 5270 (right across the road) and 5285 Howards Point Road. ~fortunatelY, Corky was unaware of the 120 foot per driveway requirement when he built the'driveway on one of his parcels but wants to do what is required to make the situation right. He has indicated that he can return from Florida for your meeting if you think it would be helpful. Sincerely, ADVANCE / James H. Parker, P.E. & P.S.

Dear Mayor Bean: At its March meeting, the Hennepin County Housing and Redevelopment Authority requested an opinion of bond counsel regarding the HRA's capacity to participate in the financing of the Southshore Senior Community Center as proposed by the participating communities. A response is expected within the next two weeks. Hennepin County is very interested in facilitating this multi-community effort and is proceeding with necessary steps for this to occur. I am also aware that the suburban Hennepin County CDBG entitlement program must make reductions in 1995 public service funding, which may directly impact the Southshore Senior Center program: It's critical, therefore, that concurrent with the on- going planning for financing the Center that the five Southshore communities make . local provision for funding the facility and senior-center program operations. Best wishes for successful implementation of this program. Sincerely, ~.~ Penny Steele .

Projects will be completed in order of priority, as defined below and as categorized and dated by the Public Works Director. Where two (2) or more projects have the same priority, the older of the projects will be completed fIrst, funding permitted. Total project spending per year will not exceed $30,000 or the fund balance, whichever is smaller. 1) PUBLIC SAFETY AND HEALTH . CRITERIA Primary attention will be paid to those projects that impact the public health or safety. These projects would include ice problems on the road, erosion that is causing a hazardous structural problem (i.e. undermining a road), or storm water that is causing a signifIcant health problem (such as flooding the sanitary system). CURRENT PROJECTS (DATE) 2) SUBSTANTIAL FINANCIAL IMPACT TO THE CITY CRITERIA . This category will include those projects that, while not endangering the public health, will still have a negative impact on the residents as a whole. Projects in this category include minor infrastructure replacement that cannot be funded cost effectively by other means. Other potential projects include erosion causing property damage and minor structure replacement. CURRENT PROJECTS (DATE) H:lSsn.OOIClVILIMISClLDM . . ..... 3) PUBLIC NUISANCE CRITERIA This category includes those projects that cannot be considered a substantial hazard, are not likely to cause a fmancialloss to the City, but are a public nuisance. These projects include standing water in the roadway, unwanted flooding in public parks, and minor erosion projects. CURRENT PROJECTS (DATE) 4) PRIVATE NUISANCE CRITERIA Finally, those projects that are a nuisance to a single residence or small group of residences that the City Council deems that the City has some responsibility to help correct. These projects include those instances where a large drainage area is causing a problem to a small area, and the homeowner(s) is (are) willing to allow a right-of-entry to City crews without cost.

Preliminary cost estimates suggest that storm sewer alone would cost in excess of $150,000 for a drainage system placed in accordance with the City's Comprehensive Storm Drainage Plan. In addition, it has recently been suggested that there is an old concrete pipe in-place that may simply be plugged. . There is little doubt that an improved drainage system will someday need to be placed in this area. However, it may make better financial sense to budget for a street/water/storm sewer project in the CIP rather than to perform a drainage fix right now. Therefore, we are recommending a halt to the feasibility report with a concerted effort to find and clear the old drainage pipe as weather permits. The overall project can then be added to the CIP as budget allows. . Sincerely, ORR-SCHELEN-MA YERON & ASSOCIATES p4 Joel A Dresel, P.E., LS.

Dresel, City Enginee0t'-' DATE: March 27, 1995 SUBJECT: 1995 Manhole Sealing Project OSM Project No. 5572.00 . As you know, we have been investigating the various methods of manhole sealing available for use on the City's sanitary sewer system. Basically, the choices are two - an external or an internal seaL Internal seals would involve a lower initial cost. This is because none of the pavement surrounding the manhole is torn up. However, based on our research, the internal seals are not as effective in controlling infiltration and there seems to be some question about the need for future maintenance (Le. band tightening). Internal seals may be useful where it is undesireable to excavate the roadway, or where excavation in general is not practical.' Therefore, we are recommending the use of external seals around those manholes that are sitting in low points in the roads and easements. In addition, it would also seem prudent to plug the cover holes as appropriate. We have attached a sample specification for external manhole sealing for your review. . The next logical step would be for you to identify those manholes that you believe are particularly sensitive to inflow and infiltration. We could then take these locations and include them in a specification for quotes or bids. Attachment ce H:\SS72.00\ CML\CORRES\03Z79S.DZ ~/~D En ineers . Architects . Planners .

The sleeve or seal shall be sealed to the top of the cone or the top slab of the manhole and over the top of the casting.

SHOREWOOD, MINNESOTA 55331-8927 · (612) 474-3236 MEMO (Via FAX) To: Sen. Ed Oliver, Rep. Tom Workman & Rep. Barbara Sykora From: James Hurm, City Administrator, & Alan Rolek, Finance Director Date: April 4, 1995 Re: CITY OF SHOREWOOD RESPONSE TO SENATE FILE 1570 The City of Shorewood is firmly opposed to Senate File 1570, which would impose a tax levy freeze for tax year 1996, reinstate tax levy limits in 1997 and ensuing years, eliminate state aids including LGA and HACA by 1998, and prohibit the issuance of any new General Obligation debt until 1997. While the City recognizes that tax reduction and tax reform are goals of the State Legislature, we feel that the imposition of these limitations would have a severe negative impact on the services which the City provides to its residents. Truth- in-Taxation legislation was intended to make such restrictions unnecessary. We feel Shorewood is a well governed and managed community and operates on a lean budget. With the City Council close to its constituency at a grass roots level(1,280 resident per elected official), and all meetings of the City Council and Commissions open to the public, we feel that the City is very responsive to citizens. We feel that, the passage of Senate File 1570 would impact Shorewood in the following ways: . FREEZING TAX LEVY DOLLARS FOR 1996 AT 1995 LEVELS WOULD HAVE A GREAT NEGATIVE IMPACT ON SERVICES TO OUR CITIZENS. The City has held the line on property taxes levied, with zero increases in tax levy dollars in the last two years and in three of the last four years. During this same period, the City's population has grown at an average of 3% annually. The capacity of the City to continue to provide services to its citizens at the same level without the ability to increase funding is very limited. Service levels, in this event, would be constricted. The City already participates in cooperative policing, fire protection and other cooperative agreements with neighboring cities. These restrictions placed on each city would have a severe impact on joint cooperative efforts. A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore jfl;;Z E- In addition, the City's 5 year capital improvement plan calls for funding increases of 4% - 5% through the General Fund to finance the repair and replacement of the City's aging infrastructure. The imposition of a levy freeze and ensuing levy limits could cause delays for these projects which would result in real health and safety issues. · FREEZING THE ISSUANCE OF GENERAL OBLIGATION DEBT THROUGH 1996 WOULD RESTRICT DEVELOPMENT IN TH E CITY, ADVERSELY AFFECTING THE CITY'S TAX BASE. In order for further development to continue, the City needs to extend its water system to potential development sites. This would include the construction of an additional water tower and extension of water trunk lines. The imposition of a freeze on issuance of debt would effectively eliminate the City's ability to extend the water system and, according, place a freeze on development. This would have an adverse effect on the City's future tax base. Further, the inability to issue debt for infrastructure replacement and repair would cause further degradation to . the City's infrastructure, causing health and safety issues. Finally, the City, jointly with another City, is currently requesting the Hennepin County HRA to issue bonds on our behalf to construct a Senior Community Center (a joint effort of 5 cities). This joint effort would likely not happen if issuance of general obligation debt is prohibited. · ELIMINATION OF LGA AND HACA WITHOUT THE ABILITY TO REPLACE IT WITH OTHER FUNDING ALTERNATIVES WILL HAVE A VERY SEVERE IMPACT ON SHOREWOOD. HAC A comprises 18% of the City's funding for general operations. The elimination of HAC A without the ability to replace it places a huge gap in the City's ability to fund its general operations at the current level, and would force a substantial reduction in services to citizens. · THE CITY HAS HELD THE LINE ON TAXES AND SPENDING. The City has submitted zero increase levies for three of the last four years. General Fund expenditures increased 2.32% in 1994 and decreased 2.10% in 1995. We feel that Shorewood has been very responsible to its citizens in making its taxing and spending decisions, and have every intention of continuing to listen to the needs of our residents. . cc: Mayor and Councilmembers Jim Miller, League of MN Cities Senator Doug Johnson, Senate Tax Committee Chair ., ." 1!P SOUTH LAKE MINNETONKA PUBLIC SAFElY DEPARTMENT 810 Excelsior Boulevard Excelsior, Minnesota 55331 RlCHARD A.

Young 810 Excelsior Boulevard Excelsior, MN 55331 Dear ChiefY oung: On behalf of the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services, I am pleased to notify you that your jurisdiction has been selected to receive a COPS FAST grant award to hire 1 new and additional officer(s). As eXplained in the COPS FAST Fact Sheet, in t""o weeks you will receive a packet containing a Community Policing and Budget Summary which you must submit before you may begin accessing your grant funds. As you complete these brief documents, please keep in mind that the COPS Office will provide technical assistance in formulating both summaries, and with any other questions you have about your grant award. The Department of Justice Response Center is available to answer questions at 1-800-421-6770. The COPS Office has been delighted with the overwhelming interest in COPS FAST and the FAST Application. We received responses from over 7,000 law enforcement agencies, requesting over 18,000 officers at a cost of over $1 billion. Because of this high level of response, many jurisdictions who were selected received fewer than the total number of officers they requested. In the next fiscal year we hope to fund these unmet needs to the highest possible level, and at the present we do not expect that any additional application will be required. We will notify you further. on this point when the amount of funding available in the next fiscal year has been determined. ,COPS FAST, along with the each of the other COPS initiatives, has been designed to , simplify the task of applying for and receiving a federal grant. We are delighted to be working in partnership with you and other agencies in this effort to increase the number of law , enforcement officers who are engaged in the practice of community policing. The COPS Office , will continue its efforts to provide law enforcement agencies with the resources they need to better serve theircommunity. eJy, #e.uVl-{ J eph E. Brann irector, COPS Office .' .'
