logistics of managing this grant, should it be awarded.
The enclosed application needs to arrive at the Hennepin Conservation District no later than
AUl:ust 15. Thank you! The City of Shorewood has been tremendously supportive in the

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Brad Nielsen
.
DATE:
6 August 1992
RE:
. Recommendations by Senior Housing and Services Task Force
FILE NO.:
405 CPR: Housing-Elderly
Having met four times, the Senior Housing and Services Task Force has determined that two
initial recommendations should be made to the City Council. First, the Task Force agrees
that Shorewood should get the word out to developers of elderly. housing projects that the
City has determined that a need exists in this area for such housing and that the City is
actively pursuing elderly housing development and inviting them to consider Shorewood for
their projects. A draft letter to that effect will be forwarded under separate cover for the
Council's review.
.
Secondly, the Task Force has determined that the City should hire a senior housing
consultant to coordinate the development of an elderly housing project. The Task Force has
met with one consultant, who has been very helpful, and who has submitted a proposal to
provide such service to the City. The Task Force agrees that as a matter of practice the City
should solicit proposals from more than one consultant. They recommend that the City
Council direct staff to prepare a request for proposals (RFP) using the proposal from The
Housing Alliance (attached), dated 3 August 1992 as a model for the RFP.
While the letter involves minimal staff time and copying expense, the RFP has budgetary
implications. The City Administrator will be prepared to discuss this at Monday night's
meeting.
If the Council has any questions on these recommendations, please do not hesitate to contact
.me prior to Monday night.

Dear Task Force Members,
Mr. Elness, Mr. Taylor and I thank you for your attention and
interest in our discussion of senior housing at your last meeting.
It appeared to us that you are ready to move forward with a plan
for housing; and we have some suggestions in that regard.
You possibly realize that ultimately you may need to work with -
a development coordinator to pull together all the elements of
a housing package. If that is the case, your choices of methods
of operation include the following:
1. Select a site yourselves, than advertise for proposals.
2. Select a coordinator now with whom you feel comfortable
to help with the entire process.
The drawback of the first choice is that you would need to choose
a site without adequate information regarding the housing.
The advantage of the second choice is that you would remain in
control of the entire process.
We would be happy to submit proposals in either case, but could
be more helpful in working with you from the beginning to
coordinate all elements of research, planning, design and
management. For this reason we are including in this letter a
proposal for your review at your next meeting.
Again, thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Planning Commission, Mayor and City Council
.
FROM:
Brad Nielsen
DATE:
30 July 1992
RE:
Minnewashta Elementary School Expansion - C.U.P. and Variances
FILE NO.:
405 (92.13)
Based upon the discussion at the 21 July Planning Commission meeting the School District
architects have submitted the following information:
.
Exhibit A - Site and Landscaping Plan (Revised)
Exhibit B - Comprehensive Site Plan
Exhibit C - Agreement Letter, dated 27 July 1992
The engineers for the School District have also submitted more detail relative to how
storm water will be handled via the old sewage treatment lagoon ..located on the north half of
their site.
Following is how their revised plans comply with previous staff recommendations:
1. The proposed site plan shows the easterly entrance to the site shifted approximately
25 feet to the east. This allows the turning radius for buses leaving the site to shift
also. The result of changing the entry is to save six existing parking spaces on the
west side of the site. It also increases the width of the parking area from eight spaces
.to 16. The shift alters the kindergarten play area but does not eliminate it.
2. The parking spaces located within the Smithtown Road right-of-way have been
eliminated. The parking arrangement has been redesigned to include a single tier of
16 90-degree parking spaces. The redesign allows the parking to be set back 15 feet
from the Smithtown Road right-of-way~

.,
~-
3. ~ The letter from Tom Berge agrees~' on behalf of the School District that they will
remove additional parking spaces at such time as Smithtown Road is upgraded.
Given the redesign of the parking and their achievement of a 15 foot setback, it may
not be necessary to remove any additional spaces in the future.
, /
4. ( LandsCaping at the northeast corner of the building has been increased to include an
-eight inch ash tree whic:h will be moved from the front of the site and seven. .
/\ / Columnar Buckthorns, three of which will wrap around, the noI'ili:side of the addition.
.
5.
As Can be seen on Exhibit B,the revisM parking plan allows the School Districtto
keep the existing ballfield north of the school. They' also show a proposed location
for a future water tower west of the pond. . l'
6. The architect has .been asked to show on his site plan where a temporary construction
road and access gate will be located on the site. This will be available for review at
Tuesday night's meeting.
7. The revised drainage plans' and stormwater calculations are being reviewed by the
City Engineer and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District.
8. The revised site plan shows the trash dumpster located within a masonry enclosure at
the southwest corner of the building.
RECOMMENDATION
.
Although the School District is still interested in acquiring additional property to the west of
the school, they now have a workable plan which does not depend. upon further acquisition. .
If they are able to purchase more area, they may wish to revise their plans. If that occurs
within the next six months, it is recommended to be handled simply as a modification to their
C.U.P. Thereafter, any change should go back through the hearing process.
It is recommended !hat the conditional use permit and setback variances be granted subject to
the following: .
a. Grading, drainage and erosion control plans are subject to the .recommendations of the
City Engineer and Watershed District.
b. Landscaping and site improvements must be completed:prior to occupancy of the
school addition.

Dear Mr. Nielsen:
Parking at Minnewashta School, most people will agree, is at a
premium. We are aware the current right of way for Smithtown
Road crosses the area now occupied by school parking. We are
also aware that the Smithtown Road may be expanded at some point
in the future. In consideration for retaining the existing
parking configuration, with the exception of elimination of the
seven spots on the edge of the parking lot bordering Smithtown
Road, the Minnetonka School District stipulates that when
Smithtown Road is expanded the district will reconfigure the
existing parking to to accommodate the expansion of the road.

Re: Minnewashta School Expansion
.
To The Above:
This letter is in response to the Notice of Public Hearing which I
received indicating that on Tuesday, July 7, 1992, the Commission
is to take up the above-captioned matter.
.
Since I will be out of town on that day, I wish to make known to
the Commission through this letter several concerns that I have.
On June 23, 1992, I attended an informal meeting conducted by John
Quiter and John Rohrman of Cunningham Architects, P.A., and Tom
Berge of Minnetonka Schools. At that meeting I raised the issue
of drainage and was assured that the runoff from the proposed
black top playground was to be directed toward the west, away from
my property which is located in the northeast corner of the
subject property.
An additional concern that I have is regarding screening of the
improvements through landscaping, etc. The plan shown at the
meeting did not indicate any landscaping or screening of the
improvements on the east or northern boundaries of the school
property. I would hope there would be some discussion of this
matter and that the City would require a more detailed explanation
as to the intention to screen the improvements.
Very truly yours,

Planning Commission, -Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Brad Nielsen
.
DATE:
1 July 1992
RE:
Minnewashta Elementary School- C.U.P. and Setback Variances
FILE NO.:
405 (92.13)
BACKGROUND
Cunningham Architects, -representing the Minnetonka School District, has applied for a
conditional use permit and setback variances to build an addition at the rear of the
Minnewashta Elementary School, located at 26350 Smithtown Road (see Site Location
map - Attachment I, attached).
.
The School District has assembled parcels of land totalling 21.37 acres. The school is
"located on the easterly 6.4 acres of the site. The existing building contains 45,169 square
feet of area, to which they propose to add 19,892 square feet for a total of 65,061 square
feet.
The survey of the school" property as it currently exists (Attachment II) reveals several
areas where the school does not conform to Shorewood's zoning requirements. The
building is only 14 feet from the east property line, where the Zoning Ordinance requires a
20 foot setback. Parking is located within two feet of the west lot line, where 10 feet is
required. Parking in front of the school is only 13 feet from the front property line where
50 feet is required.
The architect proposes to maintain the 14 foot side yard setback on the new addition (see
Attachment III), citing reasons for a variance in Attachment IV, Exhibits B-D. The
architect also proposes to reduce the front yard setback for the parking lot from 13 to eight
feet. His justification for parking setbacks is included in Attachment IV, Exhibit E.
A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore
Re: Minnewashta Elementary School
C.U.P. and Setback Variances
1 July 1992
ISSUES AND ANALYSIS
Section 1201.10 Subd. 4.b. of the City Code sets forth the conditions for an elementary
school located in a residential zoning district:'
A.
Side yards doubled. Due to the physical mass of school buildings, the Cod~ requires
that side yard setbacks be twice as large as setbacks for residential uses. Buildings
are required to be 20 feet from the property line and parking/circulation areas must
be 10 feet from the lot line.- -
.
The Zoning Code allows nonconforming structures to be expanded~ pro~ided the.
expansion complies with setbacks.. Ordinarily it would be suggested that the addition
be jogged to comply with the Code. The architect's argument in Attachment IV B-D
may, however, have merit, particularly with respect to visibility along the hallways.
It is recommended that if this variance is to be granted, it should be required that a
revised landscape plan be submitted showing enhanced landscaping along the east side
of the building. While landscaping need not create a solid screen, it should be
adequate to substantially soften the east elevation of the building.
.
The existing parking lot and driveway to the rear of the building are only two feet
from the lot line. While this raises concerns about space for snow storage in the
winter, and drainage, it would be very difficult to correct this nonconformity and still
maintain access to the rear of the site. Thenew parking area in the rear does comply
with setback requirements. What may help with existing drainage problems
(referenced further herein) is the Code provision that requires perimeter curbing
around parking and circulation areas.
It should be noted that the School District is negotiating to purchase additional land
along the west side of the site. As of thiS writing they do not have sufficient control
of the property to apply for a division and combipation. Such an acquisition could
eliminate this nonconformity.
B. Screeningand landscaping. While screening'of the rear parking area is considered
adequate, additional landscaping referenced in A. above is highly recommended.
Proposed landscaping in front of the site is not considered adequate, due in part to the
minimal front yard setback. It is recommended that the front yard setback be
increased to more closely comply with the Code. This will provide a greater
opportunity to enhance landscaping in front of the site. A revised landscape plan
should include more plant materials, possibly a small berm, and a variety of plants 'to
provide year-round screening and interest.

Re: Minnewashta Elementary School
C.D.P. and Setback Variances
1 July 1992
C. Parking. The architect has provided 63 parking spaces, although 16 of them are
"located within the 50 foot setback area. His site plan actually reduces the front
setback from 13 feet to eight feet. His justification for this variance is included in
Attachment IV E. While this office agrees that parking is necessary in front of the
building, it is recommended that some of it could be relocated to the rear of the
building in order to more closely comply with setback requirements and to increase
the area for required landscaping. "If the seven southernmost parking stalls were" .
relocated, the front yard setback could be increased to 25 feet (still a 25 foot
variance) and the parking layout could be redesigned so that the southerly aisle could
be expanded to at least 13 feet rather than 10 feet as shown on the site plan.
.
.' ,
. Since the architect proposes a one-way circulation system, entry arid exit signs should
be placed at the driveways. Additional signage should clearly indicate that additional
parking is located to the rear of the building. .
The number of spaces required for the school plus the addition is 41 (one space per
classroom, plus one space per 50 students). The proposed 'site plan includes 63
spaces.
D. Drainage. As indicated in a letter from the adjoining property owner (Attachment V),
site drainage is a concern in the area in question. Drainage problems also exist on
the east side of the site. The City Engineer will address this issue in his report,
attached;
.
E. Trash Facilities. The 'site plan makes no provision for trash' facilities. The revised
site plan should include either an enclosure for trash or an indication that trash will be
handled indoors.
RECOMMENDATION
, ,
While it is understandable that ~he School District would want to maximize use of its
existing facilities, it is unfortunate that so much seems to be squeezed onto this portion of
their site, particularly in light, of how much property they own. It would be useful to know
how they intend to use the westerly two parcels of the total site.
. Based upon the preceding analysis it is recommended that the C. u. P. and variances be
considered favorably with certain modifications made to their plans. The architect should
be directed to submit a revised site plan including the following:
1. Landscaping and screening on the east side of the building and enhanced landscaping
in front of the site.

2. Perimeter curbing around all parking and circulation areas, consistent with Code
requirements. '
3. Reduce the front yard . setback variance to 25 feet. The seven spaces.removed should
be relocated to the rear of the site.
4. The southernmost parking lot aisle should be widened to at least 13 feet. '
, /.,
5. All parking spaces must be at least 9' x 20' in size.
. 6. Proposed signage for parking lot circulation.
7. Drainage facilities as required by the City Engineer.
8. Trash handling facilities.
Required improvements should. be completed prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy
for the addition.

MITNNEWASHTASCHOOLV~CEREQUEST

SIDE YARD SETBACK OF 14 FEET IN LIEU OF 20 FEET
Narrative of Hardship:
.
The school district claims a hardship for locating the addition 20 feet away from
the east property line rather than 14 feet away for the following reasons:
1. The existing east building face of the school is 244 feet long and is located .14
feet from the east property line. The addition to the rear of the school adds 80
feet in length to this face, and so this only continues an existing situation.
2. If the school were to move the addition 6 feet to the west, one result could be
classrooms which are not the ideal or recommended sizes. The ideal size for
effective teaching is a 30' x 30' classroom. To remove 6 feet of depth as
shown in Exhibit "C" would result in classroom sizes of24' x 38', a
disproportionate rectangle which hampers proper teaching.
.
3. The other method of moving the addition 6 feet to the west would be to leave
the classrooms the recommended proportions, but to jog the corridor 6 feet, as
shown in Exhibit "D." This solution is not acceptable to the school district
because a jog in the corridors prevents proper supervision and visual control
of the corridors, thus leading to disruption and unruliness of the students.
4. Since this addition occurs in the rear yard of the school and is adjacent to the
rear yard of the east adjoining property, the effect of continuing the existing
situation for another 80 feet is a minor infraction. The new wall will be the
same height as the existing wall, and will represent only 25% of the total wall
when completed.
Additional Justification:
The typical setback required in this zoning is 10 feet. Although this use is a
school, which automatically doubles the setback, the building is still one story.
Therefore, the height is the same or less as what a residential structure could be.

PARKING WITHIN TWO SETBACKS
AT THE FRONT OF THE SCHOOL
Narrative of Hardship:
.
1. The existing parking is within the required setbacks at the front area of the
school, at the south and. west property lines. To change this situation would
be to remove parking.
2. The school site is very restricted on either side and the parking we are adding
at the rear is,to be closed off with gates. Children will be active at the rear of *
the school and the school does not want auto traffic conflicting with students
during the day. Rear parking will be staff parking only because of this.
3. All vis.itor parking, bus loading and unloading, and parent drop-off is at the
front area of the school. To remove parking in the front area to comply with
setbacks would mean that visitors and parents dropping off or picking up
children would have to park out on Smithtown Road. This would be a very
dangerous situation.
.
4. For reasons of not creating a frustrating and hazardous situation, we are
proposing that the limits of the parking areas at the front area of the school be
permitted to remain.

Dear Mr. Nielson,
.
As per your request during our recent phone convers~tion I
have mailed you this diagram and description regarding the
water drainage of Minnewashta Grade School onto the east side
of our property.
.
There are three different places where the school is draining
water onto our property.
1) The entire parking lot in front of the school is sloped in
such a way that it drains to the west. There it is channeled
bye em e n t cur bin g nor t h war d 1.... n t i 1 the C lJ r bin g end sap pro x -
imately where the western most wing of the school is. The
entire flowage then crosses ~nto our land approximately at
the mid point of the western ~ing. It appears that a large
part of the water which falls onto the school roof is also
drained into the parking lot snd follows the same path.
2) At approximately the notth end of the playground there is a
piece of 6 inch black plastic drainage tile which is directed
at our property with its mouth some 3 feet from the property
line.
37 Approximately 75 feet south of the black plastic drainage
tile is a 12 inch metal culvert with its origin on school
property, crossing under the fence-and opening up on our land.
I would appreciate it if you would mark these problems on your
appropriate plans or map to be addressed with the school so
that they may be corrected.
Sincerely
TOm~ite

Re: Minnewashta School Addition
Preliminary Grading/Drainage Plan Review
Dear Mr Nielsen:
As requested, we have reviewed the Preliminary Grading and
Drainage Plan dated June 1992 for the referenced site. At this
time, we have the following general comments.
The proposed project significantly increases the impermeable
surface area of the site. It can be expected that this will
increase the storm water runoff volume and rate. As neighbors to
both the east and west of the site have experienced water
problems in the past, we believe an alternative method of
handling the stormwater must be found.
One possibility is the use of the old pond located northwest of
the existing school. It is our understanding that this pond is
located on school property, and is available for their use.
utilizing this pond would have the added advantage of treatment
prior to discharge to wetland 27-904W. We recommend
investigating a storm sewer system routed through this old pond.
It is our understanding that the school system has previously
agreed to siting a City water tower in the Minnewashta area.
There may be alternative locations available, but this project
will remove any possibility of building the tower on the high
ground adjacent to the existing school building. We recommend
investigating alternative water tower locations on school
property prior to approval of this project.
The proposed grading off the northwest corner of the parking area
will require the removal of trees combined with a slightly
steeper finished slope. As this is a formula for erosion
problems, we recommend a turf establishment program that includes
both seeding and wood fiber blankets.
We look forward to working with you further on this project.
Sincerely,

RE:
Schaub, Mike - Conditional Use Permit and Variances for Nonconforming
Shoreland Lot
FILE NO.:
. 405 (92.16)
BACKGROUND
.
Mike Schaub owns a lot at 5185 Shady Island Road (see Site Location map - Exhibit A,
attached). Last April the house which had existed there burned down. In applying for a
building permit to reconstruct the dwelling,'Mr. Schaub discovered that the lot does not
meet the requirements for a buildable lot in the R-IB, Single-Family Residential zoning
district. He now requests a conditional use permit to build on a substandard lakeshore lot
and variances to the lot width and area requirements of the R-IB district (see Exhibit B).
The subject property is 70 feet wide, 205 feet deep and contains 14,350 square feet of area.
The proposed house is two and a half stories high .and contains 1758 square feet of area on '
two floors, plus a basement. A two car. garage is attached on the north side of the house.
The proposed location of the house is shown on Exhibit C. Building elevations are shown -
on Exhibits Dand E.
The request is subject to the requirements of Section 1201.03 Subd. 1.g. (nonconforming
structures destroyed), Section 1201.03 Subd. 2.c.(3) (nonconforming lots of record) and
Section 1201.26 Subd. 5.b. (substandard lakeshorelots).

Re: Schaub, Michael

31 July 1992
ISSUES AND' ANALYSIS .
,
"
,
~ .
A.- Development of Nonconforming Lots. The Zoning Ordinance prescribes what size
lots need to be in order to be buildable, which varies from one zoning district to another.
In this case the R-1B District requires thatlots be 30,000 square feet in area and)10 feet
wide'atthe building line (Le.the front setbackline).The Ordinance also addreSses
substandard lots which were developed pfior to the adoption of current requirements.-
Section 1201.03Subd. 2.c.(3) sets forth criteria under which someOne can build ona
- - nonconforming.lot of record. These, same criteria are reiterated in the Shoreland
Management Regulations contained in Sect. 1201.26 Subd.5;b. Following is how the
applicant's request relates to the City Code: . ,
.' h
-tH-'
....'
'.
'f
1.
)
The 'owner does not own land on either side of the subject property.
, \;
3.
The Code requires that substandard lots have at least 70 percent of the required lot,
area (30,000 sq. ft.)and width (110 feet) in order to be buildable. The existing lot
contains approximately 14,350 square feet in, area - 48 percent of theR-IB I ~
requirement. It is 70 feet wide which is 64 percent of the required width. The
applicant has requested variances to these' requirements.
,
1.- \.
, C',.',.,' .J
The proposed site plan appears to meet the R-JB/S setback requirements:
Front: 40 feet
Side: : total 30 ~eet, no side less than! 10 feet
Rear (lake): .! 50 feet
The applicant's site plan should clearly illustrate that the proposed deck is at least 20
feet from the west property line. '
4. The area of all structures (hous~,garage and deck footprint) is 2068 sq. ft. -
approximately 14.5 percent of the lot area. Even when the driveway (640 sq~ft.) is
taken into c;onsideration, the impervious surface..to lot area ratioGs only 19 percent.
'. ' ~'., ;' ,.'. /
B. Nonconforming Uses Destroyed..-Section 1201.03 Subd. 1.g. requires that wnen
nonconforming structures are destroyed to 50 percent of their value, anyriew construction
must meet all current zoning requirements. . This valuable zoning requirement has been
tempered by an exception for single-family homes:
, ~
2.
.
"Exception: Single-family residential units may be rebuilt on nonconforming lots of
record, provided that setbacks are complied with to the extent possible. "
As pointed out in A.3. above, the proposed structure complies, or is capable of complying,
with all setback requirements.

Re: Schaub, Michael
C.U.P. and Variances
31 July 1992
C. Shady Island Zoning~ In 1985 the City adopted an updated zoning map which
attempted to zone areas consistent with how they had been developed. Staff recommended
at that time that Shady Island should be zoned R-1C, Single-Family Residential, which
provides for 20,000 square foot lots, 100 feet wide. Island residents petitioned, however,
to zone Shady Island R-1B. There apparently was some concern at the time that a certain
site could possibly be divided into three lots instead of two.
r,'- \
.
Under R-1C zoning the applicant would notneed any variances. As mentioned at the time,
there are other lots on the island which could experience the same difficulty if existing
dwellings were ever destroyed. -...;
It is our understanding that there.is now interest among Shady Island.residents in having the
current zoning changed to R-1C. If such a petition is received, it is recommended that the
request be favorably considered. .
RECOMMENDATION
Based upon the preceding the applicant's request is considered to be justified. Without the
variances, he would be unable to make reasonable use of his property. Moreover, his
plight is due to inappropriate zoning for the area in which he is located. Approval of the
c.u.p. and variances is recommended subject to the following conditions:
1. No part of the proposed structure, including the deck, should be closer than 20 feet
from the west side of the lot or 10 feet from the east side of the lot.
.
2. Prior to any construction, construction limits and an erosion control barrier should be
erected at the 50 foot setback line., Special precautions should be taken to protect the
large oak tree located to the south of the proposed house.
3. The applicant should be aware that any variance granted is good for one year.

Mr. Nielsen, Mayor, Councilpersons and Commissioners:
The Schaub family have been property owners on Shady Island in
Shorewood for 34 years, since 1958. This April our homestead
burned to the ground.
We find our property is zoned R-1B and accordingly we need to
apply for a conditional use permit and a variance to rebuild
on our land according to ordinance 1201.3 sub-division 16.
Accompanying this letter are our plans for construction. We
will meet all setbacks as stated on the R-1B requirements.
The exception is the width of the lot which is only 75 feet.
.
We respectfully request a variance and conditional use permit
for our lot 24 on Shady Island subject to meeting all setbacks
other than lot width. A denial will seriously affect the value
of our property and prevent me from replacing my living quarters.
Sincerely,
Michael Schaub

RE:
Sjovall, John - C.U.P. for Accessory Space in Excess of 1200 Square Feet
FILE NO.:
405 (92.14)
BACKGROUND
Mr. John Sjovall requests a conditional use permit, pursuant to Section 1201.03 Subd.
2.d.(4) of the City Code, to construct a three-car, detached garage on his property, located
at 5935 Galpin Lake Road (see Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached). The garage,
combined with existing accessory space, exceeds 1200 square feet.
The subject property contains 41,727 square feet of area and is zoned R-1C, Single-Family
Residential. The property is also subject to Shoreland Management Regulations. In
. addition to his homesite, Mr. Sjovall also owns an adjoining vacant lot to the south.
Besides his residence, the subject site is occupied by a nonconforming, two-story garage
which extends over the lot line. The portion straddling the lot line is a corrugated steel,
pole type structure. Following are the floor areas of existing and proposed buildings:
House - first floor: 1732 sq. ft.
second floor: 707 sq. ft.
total: 2439 sq. ft.
Existing Pumphouse:
Existing Garage -first floor:
-pole barn
to be removed:
-second floor:
net total:
36 sq. ft.
996 sq. ft.
-398 sq. ft.
260 sq. ft.

Proposed Garage - 26' x 32':
832 sq. ft.
Total Proposed Accessory Space:
1726 sq. ft.
A Residential Community on Lake Minnetonka's South Shore
5e.
Re: Sjovall, John
C.D.P. for Accessory Space
29 July 1992
ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION
Following is how the applicant's request complies with Shorewood's zoning requirements:
1. The total accessory space (1726 sq. ft.) does not exceed the floor area above grade of
the existing residence (2439 sq. ft.).
2. The total area does not exceed 10 percent of the mimmum lot size for the R-1C/S
zoning district (.10 x 20,000 = 2000 sq. ft.).
.
3. The proposed garage complies with all setback requirements. In addition, while
removing the pole structure does not eliminate the nonconformity of the existing
garage, it does improve its conformity.
4. The architectural character of the new garage is consistent with the character of the
other buildings on the site. The applicant has agreed to remove the corrugated steel,
pole structure, eliminating the construction material nonconformity.
Although not specified, it is assumed that the siding on the garage will be the same as the
other structures on the site. ,
Based upon the preceding analysis, it is recommended that the applicant's conditional use
permit be granted subject to a requirement that the steel, pole structure on the south side of
the existing garage be removed within six months of issuance of a building permit for the
. new garage.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
. FROM: Brad Nielsen
DATE: 6 August 1992
RE: Partial Street Vacation - Noble Road
FILE NO.: Streets - Noble Road
In July the Council approved a final plat for an eleven-lot subdivision named Boulder Ridge
Estates. Since the project extends Noble Road to the west/and includes a new temporary cul-
de-sac, the existing cul-de-sac on Noble Road is no longer necessary. As a consequence, the
developer has requested that the City vacate the circular portion of the existing cul-de-sac.
The area proposed to be vacated is illustrated on Exhibit A, attached.
.
Staff recommends approval of the partial vacation subject to the resolution being recorded
simultaneously with the Boulder Ridge Estates plat.
If you have questions relative to this item, please do not hesitate to contact my office.

Subject: Joint Powers Agreement
As instructed at yesterdays Coordinating Committee meeting, I have
prepared a new Joint Powers Agreement for the term of five years,
demand formula. There are no other changes other that the updating
or technical changes as explained in a previous memo and outlined
below which reflect current practices.
I have enclosed two documents. The first shows strikeouts and
additions to the current document. The second is a clean copy
incorporating the changes shown in the first document.
The only change on the first page is the date from 1988 to 1993.
The only change on the second page is the removal of a coma after
Shorewood in the second line of Section 3.
.
The third page has a change on the forth line from shall to may
appoint an alternate. This is to make the document consistent with
the previous definition in Section 2 - b, which uses the word may
instead of shall.
Also on the third page in the second line of Subdivision 2 of
Section 5 there are two changes. The first is merely to capitalize
the word order in Roberts Rules of Order. The second eliminates
the election of a secretary. To my knowledge we have never elected
a secretary and even if we did there are no duties for such a
position. In Section 6, Subdivision 7, it states we shall
designate and appoint a clerk-treasurer, which is what we have
done.
There are no changes on page four.
On page five, first paragraph, seventh line, the change is merely
to capitalize the word chairman.
Serving Sorah Lake MinnetonJaz C077l17lWJities of Excelsior, Greenwood, Shorewood and TonJaz Bay
Also on page five, the entire portion of Subdivision 2 which dealt
with the phasing in of the demand formula has been removed since
this has been accomplished.
On page six, Subdivision I, all dates have been changed. In the
fourth line the word agreement has been capitalized. On the sixth
line, the term secretary-treasurer was changed to clerk-treasurer.
We do not have a secretary-treasurer under the authority of the
Agreement.
Also on page six, Subdivision 3, the word agreement was capitalized
three times.
There are no changes on page seven.
On page eight, Subdivision 4, fifth line, the term Workman's
Compensation is no longer appropriate and it is now called Worker's
Compensation.
~ The last changes are in Section 10. In the first line the word
agreement is capitalized. In the seventh line the term municipal
court has been changed to district court. Municipal court no
longer exists and all cases now go to district court.
If you have any questions or note further minor changes, please
contact me.

Subdivision 1. This Agreement shall take effect January 1, ~
ml[l:i~ and shall continue through December 31., ~ ~B~I;J or,
the'reafter '.... from year to year. None of the part~~~.....shall wi"'fhdraw

on that date may be accomplished by the party flIYng notice with

year, giving notIce of withdrawal as of the end of that year. In
such case, financial obligations shall continue until the effective

the percentage of the approved budget payable by each of the
rema~~ing parties for each ensuing budget year during the term of
the a1greement shall be adjusted such that each party's percentage
remaihs in the same proportion to that of the other remaining

Citizen Task Force to study the issue and to appoint a resident of their
city to the Task Force.
2. Ask the Southshore Senior Center's Advisory Committee to
appoint five active senior citizens to sit on the Task Force. This
Advisory Committee is composed of senior citizen volunteers from
each of the funding communities plus a representative from the
Southshore Park Apartments.
3. A time line was developed as follows:
a. Present this report to each City Council in August asking that the
councils pass the enclosed resolution at their September
meetings.
b. City Councils'\:>point a representative from their city by January
1993. The Senior Center Advisory Committee appoint
representatives by the same date.
c. Task Force report to the City Councils by September 1993.
4. Identified are some of the duties of the Task Force which may include:
a. Determine the need for a community/senior center
b. Develop options

HISTORY OF SOUTHSHORE SENIOR CENTER
The leadership of the former Excelsior Area Senior Citizen Club
approached the staff of Senior Community Services and requested the
agency's help in establishing a Senior Citizen Center in Excelsior. The
Metropolitan Council, through its role as the Area Agency on Aging had
developed a regional service plan that identified Excelsior as a future
location for a Multi-purpose Senior Center.
Senior Community Services staff wrote a successful grant application to
the Metropolitan Council and received first year start-up funding.
Working with the director of Minnetonka Community Services, Senior
Community Services received the free use of two classrooms for the
center, located in the old Excelsior High School. Rent, utilities and
custodial help were donated by the school district as were tables, chairs
and desks. The Center also had use of additional class/meeting rooms and
the gymnasium on a scheduled basis. The center opened in July 1983.
Dining began in September 1983, using the school lunch program. No van
was available at that time to provide transportation.
The school lunches proved to be unpopular with seniors at the center. In
the second year, staff negotiated with the VOA (Volunteers of America) to
bring the congregate dining program to the center. Initially we were told
that due to tightness of the federal grant for Congregate Dining, we could
not start a new dining site. However, after Senior Community Services
offered to pay staff costs and VOA for the food (a first for the Congregate
Dining program) a site was opened.
A commercial kitchen was installed, funded through Community
Development Block Grant funds from a number of cities. The dining
program began in 1984-85 with an average daily attendance averaging
39 people. 3,174 meals were served. Title III funding was available for
three years b'efore the local cities were asked to support the center.
Administrative funding is now received from the cities of Excelsior,
Chanhassen, Deephaven, Shorewood, Tonka Bay and Greenwood.
A van was borrowed from Mt. Calvary Church in 1984, with the center
covering the operating expenses, with rides offered to the center. Some
additional funding was successfully obtained and transportation expanded
to include grocery shopping and some money used to help pay volunteers
using their own cars, for bringing area residents to medical appointments.
Senior Community Services now owns its own van - obtained through a
federal grant program administered by MnDOT. Transportation has
continued to increase with 917 one-way trips provided in 1984-85 to
5,000 one-way trips in 1990.
In addition to the transportation and dining programs the center offers
other services:
.
Volunteer Services
Utilizing the expertise of the older adult is a prime objective of the
senior center program. From 16 involved seniors in 1983, the center now
has 60 retired people volunteering in one or more programs. Van drivers,
program directors, receptionists, advisory board members, dining program
volunteers, are some examples.
Information & Referral
The center acts not only as the focal point of activities for seniors but
also as a referral, center for seniors and their adult children who are
seeking information about aging and appropriate services. The center
answers hundreds of requests for information from area residents.
.
Health Programs
Blood pressure screening, flu immunizations, hearing and vision
screenings are held regularly. Special programs on other health related
topics are presented featuring community resources.
Educational & Social Recreational ProQrams
The center is a place to continue to widen ones intellectual and social
horizons. A focal point of activities for older adults of our communities.
The 1990 census data shows 1,900 people 60 and older in the communities
of Deephaven, Excelsior, Greenwood, Shorewood and Tonka Bay. This figure
is projected to grow.
Center Space
In 1988 the center was notified it would have to seek another space. In
August 1990, it was moved to its current temporary location at Mt.
Calvary Lutheran Church.
Working on the space question, Senior Community Services has:
a. Completed a human service market and site location analysis. Part
of this survey included convening a meeting of community leaders
at Excelsior City Hall to discuss needs (see attached survey report).
.
b. Met with city mayors and Larry Blackstad, Senior Planner of
Hennepin County, resulting in the Southshore communities'
requesting Hennepin County HRA provide assistance in analyzing
possible sites for the cost and to study alternative financing
mechanisms for development of the center. (see attached work
plan).
c. Staff, Ben With hart and Larry Blackstad met with Excelsior's
Facilities Needs Task Force to discuss the center and financing
possibilities for a new facility.
What we believe should be done now is to convene a meeting of our
Southshore cities' mayors and city managers to discuss the possibility of
a joint powers agreement. The joint powers committee would identify a
site and recommend a funding plan.
. Funding Could Include:
· Capital Campaign, a portion of the funds could be raised through a
matching capital campaign conducted by Senior Community Services.
· CDBG funding
· General tax levy (limits removed)
· Authorization of Hennepin County HRA to levy and sell bonds
· Combination of the above
· Other
The exact funding mix should be determined by the joint powers
committee.
.
.
Location
Taken from the center's study completed in 1990.
· Optimally the senior center would be part of a community center
designed to serve people of all ages. Certainly if a facility is built,
it should be used by community groups evenings and weekends.
· Near concentration of potential clients
· . On road that is well-traveled and lighted.
· Easy to locate site
. Within walking distance of apartment buildings where seniors live.
· In or near Excelsior.
Physical Plant
· Parking for at least 75 cars and two vans
· Handicapped accessible/bathrooms
· At least two class/meeting rooms (40x60' minimum)
· Dining room capable of seating 200
· Office space for center coordinator and reception area large enough
for a minimum of two desks
· Commercial kitchen

Dear Ben:
Enclosed is the final report for the SouthShore Senior Center
study previously conducted.
I am pleased to hear that Larry Blacksted is continuing to assist
in identifying financing alternatives. In interviews with
seniors, community leaders and elected officials, all of them
agreed that at a community facility including a senior center was
needed for residents of the south shore of Lake Minnetonka and
Chanhassen. The only major question was how to finance it.
I enjoyed working with you and your staff while conducting this
study. I hope that we have opportunities to work together
again. While it was time for me to leave SCS's Board of
Directors, I do miss being involved with all of you and the
agency.
Sincerely,

SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES
SOUTHSHORE SENIOR CENTER STUDY
INTRODUCTION
In 1988, Senior Community Services management learned that the
Minnetonka School District planned to reclaim space in Old
Excelsior High School where its SouthShore Senior Center was
located. Anticipating a forced move in four or five years,
Senior Community Services decided to conduct a human service
market and site location analysis. They contracted with Barbara
Thatcher, an independent consultant, to work with agency staff to
complete the survey.
Specific goals of the study were:
.
1. Substantiate the need for continuing a senior center to serve
the residents of Excelsior, Tonka Bay, Chanhassen, Greenwood,
Deephaven and Shorewood.
2. Identify optimal locations for a new senior center.
3. Develop a coalition of community leaders who are committed to
building a new senior center.
4. Recommend financing alternatives for the new center.
5. Provide an actionable document that summarizes the findings
and provides Senior Community Services management with a plan for
relocating the SouthShore Senior Center.
STUDY FINDINGS
. Need for Senior Center
Seniors active in the SouthShore Senior Center and community
leaders in the six cities that partially fund the center, all
agreed that a senior center is needed to serve residents living
on the south shore of Lake Minnetonka and Chanhassen. Optimally,
the senior center would be part of a community center to serve
people of all ages. Today, these communities do not have any
community facilities. Lyman Lodge, which closed in winter
1988-89, was the only large space available for community
activities.
In September 1988, the SouthShore Senior Center celebrated five
years of growth. The center provided services in five areas:
- Transportation: a van took seniors grocery shopping once
a week and to a major shopping center once a month.
Transportation to medical appointments was also available.
SouthShore Senior Center, page 2
- Volunteer Services: the center served as a clearing house
for volunteer opportunities, both at the center and in the
community.
- Health Programs: blood pressure screening, flu
immunizations, hearing and vision screenings were held
regularly. Special programs on other health related topics
featuring community resources werg ~ presented.
~
- Information and Referral: the center acted as a referral
center for seniors and their adult children who were
seeking information about aging and appropriate services.
- Participatory Activities: open three days a week, the
center offered seniors congregate dining, physical
fitness classes, art appreciation lectures, help with
income taxes, quilting, cards, trips and other activities.
.
Sometimes, the center's most important function was to break the
barrier of isolation many senior face.
The center operated at capacity. Staff could not offer more
activities or serve more people. Its two classroom-size space
contributed by the Minnetonka School district prevented growth.
In 1988, the center served an average of 50 people per day.
Demographic data from the 1980 u.S. Census was not gathered
~ because the data was 10 years old and did not reflect the
. ~construction of apartments in Excelsior designed especially for
seniors. Elected officials, community leaders and seniors
interviewed all believed that the population of seniors living
around the south shore of Lake Minnetonka and in Chanhassen is
rapidly growing. 1990 Census data should confirm this.
'v
.
Optimal Location
In discussions with seniors and community leaders several
criteria for optimal locations were identified. They included:
- Near concentrations of potential clients.
- On a road that is well traveled and lit.
- Easy to locate site.
- Within walking distance of apartment buildings where
seniors live.
- On the south shore of Lake Minnetonka, preferably north of
Highway 7.
- In or near Excelsior.
In addition to criteria for location, those interviewed
identified criteria for the physical plant and availability.
Physical Plant
- Parking for at least 75 cars and two vans.
- Handicapped accessible.
_ Handicapped bathrooms.
_ At least two class/meeting rooms that can be joined
together making one large room (40' x 60' minimum).
_ A dining room capable of seating 200.
_ Office space for center coordinator and reception
area large enough for a minimum of two desks.
Commercial kitchen.
_ PreferablY, additional flexible space for complementary
activities; for example, adult day care.

Availability

Monday through Friday.

Coalition of Community Leaders
In late 1988 and early 1989 when the initial phase of this study
was conducted. Lyman Lodge, owned by the yWCA. closed. The
Lodge, located on Lake Minnetonka, had served the YWCA and local
residents as a camp and meeting facility. The land was
ultimately sold to a developer. Community leaders upset by the
sale of Lyman Lodge formed an ad hoc "Save Lyman Lodge" group.
The goals of this group were to preserve Lyman Lodge as a
community resource and save surrounding woods as a wild life
preserve.
~
.
Local residents spearheading the "Save Lyman Lodge" group asked
Senior Community Services about its interest in relocating the
southShore Senior Center to Lyman Lodge. After visiting Lyman
Lodge and interviewing the previoUs director, Senior Community
Services expressed an interest in discussing the possibility of
relocating the southShore Senior Center there. However, the
Lodge had problems: poor accessibility for handicapped, an
antiquated kitchen that would not meet today's building codes and
a multilevel floor plan. Yet, the Lodge had a spectacular
setting, was a favorite place for many community residents, and
was one of few community spaces readily available.
In parallel with discussions with the "Save Lyman Lodge" group,
Senior Community Services convened a meeting of community leaders
at Excelsior City Hall. On April 5, 1989 more than twenty
elected officials, community leaders, seniors and representatives
of Senior Community Services met to discuss the possibility of
relocating the southShore Senior Center. Those attending
enthusiasticallY supported the need to provide a senior center.
Also, they expressed the need for a community center to serve all
residents of the south shore of Lake Minnetonka.
However, the group's enthusiasm was coupled with a realistic
understanding of local governments' ability to finance a new
community center. Several key community leaders pledged to work
further toward a new senior/community center.
.
.
SouthShore Senior Center, page 4
Shortly after the April 5 meeting, one of the community leaders
contacted Ben Withhart, Executive Director of Senior Community
Services, informing him that the American Legion Post *259 in
Shorewood was interested in discussing a potential partnership.
Senior Community Services executives and the consultant met with
American Legion Post leaders on several occasions. The Post
wanted to expand its present building while investing a portion
of its gambling proceeds in a community project. One proposal
was for Senior Community Services to relocate the SouthShore
Senior Center in a new wing of the existing building. Another i..~.
idea was to purchase additional property, raze the current ~
American Legion building and build a new, more appropriatelY
designed one. The goal for completing construction of an
addition or new building was the mid-1990s.
Both the American Legion Post leaders and Senior Community
Services executives continued to pursue a partnership.
Unfortunately in spring 1990, the Minnetonka School Board told
the SouthShore Senior center that it must vacate its space in Old
Excelsior High School by fall 1990. Clearly, this timeline did
not meet the needs of the American Legion Post.
Given a short time to relocate, the SouthShore Senior Center
sought temporary space. In September 1990, the center relocated
to Mount Calvary Lutheran Church on County Road 19 in Excelsior.
While adequate, this interim space does not permit new
programming or serving additional seniors. Also, seniors and
staff must be extremely flexible to accommodate ongoing
children's programs and occasional adult church functions.
Financina Alternatives
In discussions with community leaders and with officials of the
American Legion Post, it became apparent that financing for a new
senior or community center would require multiple partners.
During discussions with the American Legion Post, Senior
Community Services offered a significant financial commitment
towards a new wing of the existing building or a new building.
Senior Community Services was willing to invest capital in the
building in consideration for financial support of operating
expenses from the American Legion Post.
Since these initial financing discussions were held, Senior
Community Services has been forced to relocate its administrative
offices from Eisenhower Community Center in Hopkins. The Hopkins
School District reclaimed its space for classrooms. Senior
Community Services is now located in temporary space in Hopkins,
and the agency is launching a $700,000 capital campaign with a
goal of financing a permanent building for its administrative
offices and Seniors Serving Business prqgram.
Senior Community Services continues to seek partners in financing
a SouthShore Senior Center.
southShore Senior Center, page 5
Options for South Shore Senior Center
During the study, a list of options available to Senior Community
Services' SouthShore Senior Center was developed. A summary of
those options follows.
1. Move to existing space and remodel it. possible spaces
included Lyman Lodge, Shorewood City Hall, the old Red Owl store
in Excelsior and a building across the street from Excelsior City
Hall that the city had vacated.
None of these spaces proved viable.
.
2. Construct a new space. A partnership with either the
Minnetonka School District, American Legion Post *259, or one of
the six cities that fund the South Shore Senior Center was
suggested. These options were explored, and in 1989 neither the
school district nor any of the cities felt the time was right to
incur additional capital expenditures. The 1990 relocation
timeline was too short for the American Legion.
3. Financing for either a remodel or new building. United Way
of Minneapolis Area provides operating support for programs
managed by its member agencies. It does not give capital.
Monies may be available from Hennepin County through federally
funded programs and, depending upon the political climate, local
bonding certainly is a possibility. Proceeds from charitable
gambling are another possible source of capital and/or operating
expenses.
Senior Community Services southShore Senior Center would consider
a capital drive. In this drive, the agency would seek support
from local businesses, individuals and Twin Cities foundations.
~ 4. In 1989, minimum cost estimates for a free standing building
with at least two flexible rooms, additional space for adult day
care, office and reception area, commercial kitchen and
handicapped accessible bathrooms were $400,000 to $500,000 plus
land and furnishings. These estimates would vary significantlY
depending on what additional uses the building was designed to
accommodate.
CLOSING
One of four major goals in Senior Community Services' 1990
long-range and strategic plan is locating an appropriate
permanent facility for its SouthShore Senior Center. Agency
executives continue to actively pursue partnerShips with
community organizations, school districts and local units of
government. A partnership with the American Legion Post in
Shorewood remains a possibility.

BACKGROUND
.
The Souths hare Senior Center was established by Senior Community Services in
1981 to serve the social and human service needs of the growing senior
population in the communities which comprise the south shore of Lake
Minnetonka - Excelsior, Deephaven, Greenwood, Shorewood, and Tonka Bay.
The Southshore area contains one of the highest concentrations of lower-
income senior citizens in suburban Hennepin County. The Center, until
mid-1990, was located in the old Excelsior High School, but due to the
changing needs of the Minnetonka School District the Center was required
to relocate. The Center is currently located in the lower level of the
Mpunt Calvary Lutheran Church in Excelsior.
In response to the need to establish a permanent location for the Center, the
Southshore communities are requesting that the Hennepin County HRA provide
assistance to their local efforts to analyze possible sites for the Center
and to study alternative financing mechanisms for development of the facility.

To the City of Shorewood,
I spoke with Wendy of your office this morning, in regard to the service charge
on my sewer bill. She told me to write to the council because she could not
'abate' the charge.
I had brought my sewer payment to your office on Thursday evening, April 30th.
(My daughter takes dancing lessons at Kay Marie and Carols on Thursdays at 6: 30).
I had pushed the envelope through the doorslot so it was inside. I have done
this in the past and had no problems.
I received my July 1st bill and was very surprised to see a service charge on it.
Please have this removed. I had my payment in on time. I do not understand why
it was not credited until the 4th (according to Wendy), unless no one was there
on Friday to credit bills. I don't know what happened in your office, but this
error was not mine.
Thank you.

RE:
REQUEST FOR ABATEMENT. OF PENALTY ON UTILITY ACCOUNT,
SANDRA CONLEY, 20740 IDLEWILD PATH
.~
This item is on the agenda in response to a request by Ms. Conley
for the abatement of a late penalty added to her utility account.
Ms. Conley states in her letter that she slipped her payment into
the entryway of city Hall after regular office hours on the evening
of April 30. Our records show that the payment was not received
until May 4, four days after the due date.
.
Our procedure for receiving utility payments is to stamp each
payment stub with a date stamp on the day it is received. Payments
made on accounts after office hours on the due date are routinely
stamped with the due date when found the next morning, and the
accounts are not penalized. Payments received after the due date
are late and the accounts receive a penalty. Ms. Conley's payment
stub was stamped for May 4, the day it was received. The
difference between Ms. Conley's statement in her letter and the
date on the payment stub cannot be explained beyond this.
In examining the payment history on this account (attached),
is one quarter in the past year which was delinquent, that
the first quarter, 1991, which was due April 30, 1991.
subsequent bills to this point have been paid on time..
It is my opinion that, given the procedures followed in receipting
utility bills, it was correct to place a late penalty on this
account and, further, that the penalty should not be abated.
there
being
All
This matter also brings about the question of when an account is
considered delinquent. Perhaps, in light of this incident, the
definition of delinquent should be if payment is received after
regular office hours on the date due. This needs to be clarified
by the city Council.
If you have any further questions relative to this matter, please

MEMO TO:
.
RE:
Review of Budget Process
DATE:
.
In it's priority setting session last February the city council
gave a very high priority to a "change in budget format to tie
expenditures to council policies and goals." staff would like to
present the 1993 budget to the Council in what we feel will be a
more meaningful format than the traditional line-item budget.
Budgeting should be more than an annual review of departmental
budgets, line-item by line-item. ShorewoodJs process should help
the Council determine three things: 1) what we want to do, 2) how
we're going to get it done and paid for, and 3) have in fact
accomplished it. The three elements of our proposed budget cycle
are explained here in detail and a time-line action checklist is
provided to better explain how the elements of the process fit
together. A sample budget format is also attached. Recognizing it
may take several years to fully accomplish a meaningful transition,
we ask the Council for input on what is being presented at this
time.
