Brancel asked about the Freeman Park Little League Field. She talked
to the Tonka Men's Club and they are confused. They want to know if
they can proceed with their plans.
Stover said approval was given by the Council.
Nielsen said he would contact them.
PETITION FOR STREET VACATION
APPLICANT:
LOCATION:
LARRY SCHMIDT
SUMMIT AVENUE
Haugen stated that Mr. Schmidt is requesting that the City vacate 15
feet of Summit Ave. which adjoins his property at 23113 Summit Ave.
Schmidt explains that the street is unusually wide (80 ft.) and that
vacating the 15 feet would allow him to avoid or minimize any variance,
he may need for an addition.
The City Planner and Engineer recommend approval of this request with
the stipulation that the City maintain easements for drainage and
utilities over the r.o.w.
Stover asked if the property owners across the street can be part of
this petition. if they desired. Nielsen said they would need a
separate petition; the current petition will be published for a
Public Hearing in the next two issues of the paper.
Haugen asked if the City could suggest this to the owners.
Nielsen felt the City should wait to see if the owners are interested.
Gagne asked if we were establishing another irregular road right-of-
way and said the City should not vacate the right-of-way if we are.
Stover moved. Gagne seconded. to call a Public Hearing for Partial
Street Vacation on Summit Ave. on Oct. 22. 1990.
Motion carried - 3/1 (Gagne) on a roll call vote.
FINAL PLAT - BOWMAN ADDITION
APPLICANT: RICHARD BOWMAN
LOCATION: 20025 MANOR ROAD
George Stickney represented Mr. Bowman. He said the development
agreement has not been signed but should be within the next week.
Nothing else has changed. All other provisions have been met.
Attorney Froberg said the development agreement is usually attached to
the Resolution approving the final plat. There are many issues
involved in this development agreement and they must be resolved with
Deephaven.
Froberg said there should be no final plat approval without the
development agreement being completed.
Stickey wanted final approval subject to the approval of the
development agreement; his client wanted to proceed with the sale of
one five acre portion of the property.
Haugen said the Attorney disagreed with this approach.

1. ADVERTISING SIGN, RAPID OIL CHANGE
The advertising sign at Rapid Oil Change will come down by October 6.
1990. according to a letter from Marvin Licgt. attorney representing
Naegele Outdoor Advertising Sign Co.
2. UPDATE ON PUBLIC WORKS SITE ACQUISITION
The abstracts were reviewed on the Cross property and the title work
completed. There is an easement on the parcel to be obtained by the
City in favor of the parcel retained by Mr. Cross. Froberg wants this
easement released. Mr. Cross has agreed to release it. However,
there is a mortgage on the property and it is necessary to have the
approval of the mortgage company. Release of the easement is holding
UP the acquisition.
Stover asked how long this will take.
Froberg said they have been given until October 26. 1990.

2. LIFT STATION REPAIRS
Engineer Norton said he has set up a meeting with Bob Freegard and Bob
Polston to look at the lift stations and give an estimate on replacing
them with wet wells.
8:00 P.M. PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER THE ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE
ESTABLISHING A SPECIAL TAXING DISTRICT FOR THE GLEN ROAD SUBWATERSHED.
Mayor Haugen called the Public Hearing to order at 8:00 P.M. .
A. PRESENTATION OF THE FEASIBILITY REPORT - ENGINEER NORTON
Norton presented a history of the Glen Road drainage problem.
He said the area has been flooding for a long time. In 1978 the City
installed pumps at Cty Rd. 19 and Glen Road.
There are two cities (Tonka Bay and Shorewood) involved. the Hennepin
County Regional Railroad Authority, and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed
District. The Cities petitioned the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District
for a feasibility study in 1988.

REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1990

In June of 1988 Eugene A. Hickok & Associates did an Hydrolic
Analysis. They recommended two alternatives.
1. A ponding system. Three in Shorewood and one in Tonka Bay; or,
2. A pipe discharge system to Lake Minnetonka.
The ponding system was decided upon.
The City of Shorewood sent out easements based on topographical
information from 1966.
The Watershed District asked for new topographical information. The
City Council authorized the Engineer to survey the area and the
information was turned over to the Watershed District's Engineers, J.
M. Montgomery. They prepared an addendum to the original report. The
report was not significantly different, but suggested two ponds
instead of three.
FEASIBILITY REPORT
Norton reviewed the Feasibility Report and Cost Estimate, prepared by
Orr Schelen Mayeron and Associates.
This area has flooded frequently and many trees have been lost.
The proposal includes dredging two ponds, construct a storm sewer and
piping between the ponds and a skimming structure for the pond outlet.
Pond two will be designed to handle a 100 year critical event storm.
The construction would commence this year and be completed by July of
1991.
Many residents have questioned the environmental impact of this
proposal. A large number of trees will have to be removed. The City
has held discussions with the Watershed District about a compromise
proposal so that the area will not be devastated. The ponds would not
be as deep, so the trees will not be affected. However, at this time,
the Watershed Engineer wants to continue with the original plan. He
feels the two ponds will consolidate the small ponds that exist now.
The City is still continuing talks with the District.
The proposal will cost $150,000 but this figure does not include the
cost of easement acquisition for ponding and construction access.
The project will be funded by a Special Taxing District.
Haugen asked why the one lot on Smithtown Road was not included in the
Taxing District.
Norton said it has a catch basin which drains away from the area.
Brancel asked if Pond one was behind the Town Property.
Norton said yes. He also said an easement would be required for this
pond even though there would be no construction.
Brancel asked what happened to the pond that Town Properties was
suppose to add.
Norton said the Town project was constructed at the time the first
report was being done. The developers were told they did not have to
add one at the time but they might have to add one later.
Nielsen said the easement for the pond is on the property.
Norton said that if Pond 2 is not excavated, the water will rise very
close to the Livingston property.
He felt that additional effort should be put forth to reach a
compromise with the Watershed District.
Haugen said she contacted a member of the Watershed Board and there
will be a meeting the second week of October. Haugen said the
Watershed District is being very rigid on this.
Stover asked what Norton was considering as a compromise.

Norton said pond 2 would be larger. The water would have to be kept
away from the houses. Norton did not want to mislead anyone into
thinking there would be no excavation.
He also said Pond 3 could be enhanced. close to Glen Road. The 12"
discharge pipe would go under HwY 19 and then drain off to the lake.
Stover asked if this compromise program would keep the water out of
resident's homes. Norton said yes.
Gagne said he received a letter from a resident stating that he didn't
have any water problem.
Gagne said he has lived here since 1961 and there have been many water
problems. When the Town project was added, the problem became worse.
A neighbor requested that the City do something before they were
inundated and that is how this process started. He said there are
people in the audience that have been involved in this process from
the beginning.
B. PUBLIC HEARING
JOHN DENNIS - OWNER OF APARTMENT BUILDING
Mr. Dennis said the first Minnehaha Creek Watershed District report
was drastically inaccurate. Pond 3 has enough water in it for a 30"
culvert. The lower part of the pond does not hold much water because
of the 12" drain. He has cleaned out a lot of debris from this pond
and the adjacent ditch. He does not want a swamp around the apartment
building. Dennis said someone should come out and look at the upper
part of pond three; it sometimes holds 2 ft. of water.
STEVE PAHL
Mr. Pahl said he thought there was a creek that ran through the Glen
Road area but it had been blocked by the debris that NSP deposits.
Pahl felt the City should take a look at the former natural flow of
the water in the area.
Haugen said they are trying to do that.
Norton said the north and south portions of Pond 3 would be excavated
to make one pond.
Haugen asked if there were members of the audience who wished to make
any comments.
BRIAN MAHAN - 5670 CHRISTOPHER ROAD
The notice he received on Friday was the first time he had heard of
the Glen Road Project. He is involved in Real Estate development and
believes community input is valuable. He has lived here about one
year and enjoys the wildlife.
Mr. Mahan asked if the project was motivated by a developer, looking
for a subsidy. If this is a lack of planning by the City, then it
should be part of the City Capital Improvement Project. Usually a
developer is responsible for handling all water drainage in his area.
Gagne stated that the Christopher Road development started this
project. The people behind the development did not want to have water
dumped on them. The City then decided to study the area.
Mahan then said there was inadequate planning by the City. He also
wanted to know why ICO, Weststar Drive and the area north of Glen Rd.
were omitted from the taxing district.

Mr. Dennis said that ponds were properly put in but having 15 ponds in
an area is not appropriate.
Mahan asked if there would be lift stations and what other maintenance
would be required.
Norton said there would no lift stations and no cost for maintenance
other than clearing the ponds.
Mahan questioned the cost of easements, rate of finance and the terms.
C. CONSIDER ORDINANCE ESTABLISHING THE DISTRICT
Attorney Froberg said this hearing is to consider the establishment of
a Storm Sewer District. It is to determine whether or not the
properties included in the proposed district are actually affected.
At the close of the Public Hearing. the Council will approve the
boundaries of the district, if they feel the residents in the district
are affected by the drainage problem.
This proposed district is a subwatershed having one common drainage
problem. Additional public hearings would be necessary to spend money
for the improvement or levY taxes.
The next step would be to accept the feasibility study or some other
alternatives to the feasibility report.
A second public hearing would be necessary to proceed with the
project.
A third hearing would be necessary to determine the individual taxes
to be levied. The tax is determined on an Ad Valorem basis. The total
tax capacity of the subwatershed district is taken into consideration
and each parcel is allotted a share based on the value of the parcel.
The assessment is not based on a benefit to the property.
Haugen said the legislature has ruled that in the case of a storm
sewer improvement district the taxes must be based on the value.
Nielsen said the City Administrator has put together some very
preliminary figures on the tax per parcel.
10 years
15 years
$550.00 per year per parcel
$421.00 per year per parcel
The cost of acquiring easements could raise these prices by 50%.
Nielsen said the staff's recommendations are to try to convince the
Watershed District to allow a more natural flow through the ponds.
This would be more environmentally sound and could cost less.
DEBRA ROSS-FARRELL - 24695 Glen Road
Mrs. Ross-Farrell has lived at her present address for two years. She
said there has been no standing water on her property. She also said
the previous owners assured her that there were only two times they
had water problems; when the City installed the sewer and when the
house on Lot 16 was built. Both times drain tiles were broken.
Mrs. Ross-Farrell wanted to know if the amount of the easement can be
subtracted from the tax basis of her house.
Froberg said that depends on the value the assessor places on the
house with an easement. The assessor looks at comparables and then
decides if the house has been devalued.

Mrs. Ross-Farrell said she has talked with neighbors and many have
said the improvements will benefit the area and improve the value of
her home.
Mrs. Ross-Farrell questioned this. She stated that 2/3 of an acre of
her property would be taken. a fence and many large maple trees. She
asked how this would increase the value of her home?
Froberg said it may not increase the value. However. in a storm sewer
project it is impossible to assign benefit for each property; so the
best interests of the entire district have to be weighted.
Mrs. Ross-Farrell asked who is responsible for and liable for
accidents and if the pond would be fenced.
Froberg said the City would be responsible for maintenance of the pond
and responsible for accidents if the City is negligent.
Norton said the pond would not be fenced.
Ross-Farrell said there is $3000 escrowed for a pond from the Ecoff
Development.
Stover asked how deep Pond two would be. Norton said 4 1/2 ft.
Mr. Dennis said the pond now drys up in two days.
JOHN PLONSKY - 24680 SMITHTOWN ROAD
-.
Mr. Plonsky felt that there should be more discussion about this
project before any decision is made.
He said the City Council has made many decisions that have affected
this drainage problem. He specifically mentioned: Shorewood Place.
the Legion Club and Moore's Auto which have a lot of asphalt surface
that contribute to the run-off. Plonsky asked what would happen when
the area north of the Tom Thumb is developed and more asphalt is
added? These businesses were approved by the City. The Chrisopher
Road development now encompasses 10 homes where there used to be one.
Mr. Plonsky would like to see an end to the destruction of the land.
He said that it is unfair and unjust to have a small portion of the
citizens pay for a problem that was created by poor planning by the
City. He said the people don't know the total environmental impact.
not to mention the economic impact. He said it is time to draw the
line against discriminatory taxation.
Gagne said that people buy lots and. if they want to develop their
property. he will not prevent them from doing this; however. he can
tell them they cannot drain more water off their property than is
currently draining. There is more than one side to this situation.
Stover said this drainage topic came UP as a request from the
residents of the Glen Road area about 3 - 4 years ago. Most of these
people have now moved. The City did not initiate this project.

JIM QUAST
24800 SMITHTOWN RD.
Mr. Quast has lived in the area for 17 years and has left his 3 acres
in a natural state to absorb the water. When Christopher Road was
built Mr. Quast and his neighbors told the City Council that there
would be drainage problem. He doesn't feel that the area residents
should pay for this project.

Mr. Keith said the Minnetonka Plaza Shopping Center has contributed to
the run-off problem for many years. He would like to know if there is
any way Tonka Bay can be made to help pay for this project.
Gagne said the reason Shorewood involved the Watershed District was
because there is a problem between municipalities. However, Tonka Bay
has told S they have no funds to contribute to the project.
Haugen s 'd~AI~f~~B y has run a pipe across Manitou Park and said this
would s lve~n~rp blem.
ROGER F B 24885 GLEN ROAD
Mr. Fishbach said that, 15 years ago, when the house was built on lot
16, the water started to flow into his basement. That area had been a
natural pond. The drain tiles on that piece of property were
destroyed. He said that no one in the area had this kind of project
in mind when they first contacted the City. Mr. Fishbach said the
City should check the area for drain tiles that have been destroyed.
Gagne said there were many drain tiles in the area but there are not
the same rules as there are on farm land.
Norton said the City does not know the locations of the drain tiles in
Shorewood. Many of the tiles were put in before the lots were
platted. Now the builders are required to replace any drain tiles
that are destroyed during building.
BILL SMITH - 5770 GRANT LORENZ
Mr. Smith wanted to know if Minnetonka has guidelines for the quality
of the water run-off.
BOB RASCOP
SHOREWOOD REPRESENTATIVE TO THE LMCD.
Mr. Rascop said the LMCD is currently negotiating with the Minnehaha
Creek Watershed District to improve the quality of the water run-off.
Currently the Watershed District is only concerned with the volume of
run-off. The LMCD is trying to change this.
Norton said the outlets on the pipes in the project have skimming
devices. These were suggested by the Watershed District
DAVE LITTLEFIELD - 24775 GLEN ROAD
Mr. Littlefield has been involved in this project for a long time. He
stated that Pond 2 does exist. Anyone who thinks it does not has not
lived there long enough. It exists because a drain tile was
destroyed. Mr. Littlefield said he decided to take positive steps to
see that the Pond was drained and he only saw two solutions:
1. Each resident could have pond in their yard.
2. The residents could look for a long-term solution to
the problem.
Many of the people who started this problem have moved away. He said
the City should do something right and finish this project.
CHUCK FARRELL -
Mr. Farrell does not want the project. He will lose 2/3 of an acre
and the excavation will take out many of his trees. The people he
purchased the property from were very involved in the drainage

problem. However. he has seen no water problem since he purchased the
property.
Mr. Farrell wanted to know if the drainage project was proposed in
order to stop the Town property from being developed.
Haugen said the project was proposed before Mr. Town decided to divide
his property.
DAVE LITTLEFIELD
Mr. Littlefield wants to use a natural approach to the drainage. He
said he saw many trees destroyed because of standing water and does
not want the area to become a wasteland. However. he does not want
this to distract from a long term solution.
JOHN DENNIS - APARTMENT OWNER
Mr. Dennis did not know there were tile lines. The lower part of
Pond 3 does not get enough water to fill the 12" pipe going across
Cty. Rd. 19. He would like to see new culverts and the land left
natural. This would be less costly.
Dennis said he has a waiting list of tenants for the side of his
building that overlooks the woods.
Haugen said the City's proposal to the Watershed District will ask for
less excavation and the preserv~ti~N ~i the trees. She does not want
to see trees cut down. Haugen has asked the Planning Commission to
look into an Ordinance concerning tree cutting by developers.
The public hearing was closed at 9:40.
D. CONSIDER RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE
FEASIBILITY OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT.
Stover suggested the Council table the Resolution until the Mayor
meets with the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District.
Gagne felt this project had already gone on too long and wanted an
exact date for the meeting.
Haugen said the meeting should be the second week of October.
Stover moved. Gagne seconded. to table the discussion of the
Resolution until the October 22. 1990. City Council meeting.
Motion carried - 4/0
STEVE PAHL - 24860 SMITHTOWN ROAD
Mr. Pahl wanted the Council to investigate two things:
1. Take a survey of the residents to see who has water in their

2. The heights of the natural water drainage.
Many people did not have problem until the sewer was installed.

Motion carried - 4/0 on a roll call vote.
PUBLIC INQUIRY USE OF HCRRA TRAIL BY HORSES
PETITIONER: KEITH BETTES - 5595 EUREKA RD.
Mr. Bettes said he recently purchased his property with the
understanding that horseback riding was allowed in Shorewood. The
Sept. 5th article in the Sailor said horseback riding was not allowed
on the HCRRA trail. He would like to know why it is not allowed.
There are no postings or designation as a City recreational area.
Haugen said the Park Commission usually advises the Council about
these things.
Bettes said the Park Director never said anything to him about this.
How is the public notified about this?
Stover said this came up at a Park Commission meeting.
Gagne said the trail became part of the Park system when it was
developed. The Park Commission has banned riding on recreational land
and Parks.
Bettes said the use of horses in Shorewood is minimal and he would
like to have the Council approve horseback riding on the trail.
Haugen said he should go to the Park Commission.
Bettes said Sue Niccum. Park Director. told him to come to the
Council.
RENEE FOSTER
Ms. Foster said she is the one who rides the horse. She said
Excelsior and Victoria allow access to the trail.
Haugen said she has no problem with this.
Stover said the Park Commission should handle this.
Nielsen said the Park Commission told Sue Niccum to put the article in
the paper and so the Staff felt they had made their ideas known. Any
further discussion should be before the City Council.
Stover felt there should be a difference between a trail and a Park.
LUTHER HAZEY - BURNET REALTY
John and Kathy Heywood owned the property for 14 years and had used
the trail for riding after it was abandoned by the railroad. He would
like to see the trail available for riders.

Brancel said that the trail was not previously a walking and biking
trail.
Brancel moved, Gagne seconded, to allow horses to ride on the Hennepin
County Light Rail Transit Trail.
Gagne said he will vote for this but would like some Council support
for allowing snowmobiles to use the trail in the winter.
Stover felt there should be a difference between motorized and non-
motorized vehicles. She wanted to know how the subject came to the
Council's attention.
Nielsen read from the Park Commission minutes of Aug. 28, 1990. They
received a complaint from a resident concerning horse droppings on the
trail. The Park Commission then told Niccum to place the article in
the Sailor.
ED VOGT - GRANT LORENZ ROAD ,
Mr. VOgt said he would not mind horses on the trail but he wants them
to clean up. He said there are more walkers than riders.
Brancel said she would like to encourage the residents to clean up
after their horses but knows this would be impossible to enforce.
KATHLEEN RILEY
Ms. Riley said she used to live here. She said outside riders do use
the trail and would not clean UP after horses.
Gagne said the trail should be used by everyone, including
snowmobilers.
GARY AND MAUREEN CARLSON - 3831 W. 62ND ST. CHANHASSEN
They have lived there for twenty three years. The trail runs next to
his house. He does not object to any use of the trail. He feels it
should be open to all residents. Any use of it is alright with him.
He commended the City Council for all the work they do.
Haugen said she was grateful to hear for his comments.
Motion carried - 3/1 (Gagne).
WATERFORD III
A. ESCROW AGREEMENT FOR PREPARATION OF RESOLUTION NO. 106-90
PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS.
Froberg said this provides for an interim letter of credit
or cash escrow by the Developer.
Haugen asked what would happen if the City backed out of the
agreement before Dec. 1, 1990.
Froberg said the City is bound bY the terms because it has
already signed the agreement.
Gagne asked what Froberg recommends for the letter of credit/cash
escrow amount.
Froberg recommended $75,000, the full amount of the expenses
expected to be incurred.

George Sherman - Sherman-Boosalis Inc.
Mr. Sherman said there is a lot of work to be done, beyond the
intersection.
The City just received approval by the State for funds for the
service road work, however, the money must be spent by June 30,
1991.
Sherman felt this will be hard to do unless the project is
commenced now.
He felt the City and Sherman-Boosalis should share the risk 50-50.
If the City wants a 100% guarantee. then he would suggest waiting
until Dec. 1. He said this is not his idea of a fair share of
the risk.
Nielsen said Mn/Dot has approved $200,000 for service roads for
the Waterford intersection. This will be a tight schedule to
spend this money by June 30th.
Stover moved. Gagne seconded. to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 106-90. "A
Resolution Approving an Agreement for Cash Escrow/Letter of Credit for
the Waterford Third Phase T.I.F.lI in the amount of $37.500.00.
Gagne said this has been a 5 or 6 year process. The City has always
shared the cost of this on a 50-50 basis.
Stover said government moves slowly and she would like to keep this
moving. The entire letter of credit will be available Dec. 1.
Haugen said she would like to listen to the Attorney.
Sherman said all the money will be available Dec. 1. If your intent
is to avoid risk, then wait until Dec. 1. If the City wants to take
advantage of the $200,000, then they should be willing to take some
risk.
Froberg asked Sherman if he had signed the development agreement yet,
whereupon Sherman submitted the signed document.
Haugen asked Froberg if the signature of the agreement would change
his mind. Froberg said no.
Nielsen said the TIF plan does not rely on the $200,000 grant.
However. the extra TIF money could, then, be put toward the water
treatment plant. He felt the City should not overlook the money.
Stover did not want to turn away the money.
Brancel did not want to turn away the state aid, especially if the
extra TIF money could be used for water treatment.
Haugen wanted to enter into an agreement with developer to put UP
$37,500 whereby he would agree to reimburse the City for expenses it
would incur should the project not be completed.
The Developer would receive his money back should the City decide not
to complete the project.
Froberg said the City cannot decide not to complete the project. The
City is committed. The City would have no security beyond the
$37,500.
Sherman reiterated his position that if the City wants no risk they
should wait until Dec. 1. There will be $70,000 worth of plans and
specifications as security.
Gagne said the intersection will be there whether Sherman is there or
not.

Brancel reminded the Council that they had told the residents the
starting date would be Dec. 1.
Sherman wants to coordinate with the City when the construction phase
begins.
He also requests that. if the debt service is reduced, the letter of
credit he is providing be reduced.
Stover and Gagne agreed that there would be no problem with reducing
the letter of credit under those circumstances.

CHURCH ROAD IMPROVEMENTS.
RESOLUTION NO. 108-90
Norton said this is a preliminary feasibility report.
Gagne asked for the bottom line figure.
Norton said the total cost would be $10,000 per household. The soil
is questionable; the same type of problem as Shorewood Oaks.
A French Drain tile system was used in Shorewood Oaks. This will not
be possible on Church Road. The area is very flat and the water
drains under the walking trail. A large portion of the project cost
is the road.
Nielsen said the total for water alone in Shorewood Oaks was $6,300
and Waterford assessments totaled $18,000.
Haugen asked about lot 38. Norton said this was owned bY Mr. Dale
Johanson. It has been identified as an area for a cul-de-sac. The
watermain passes his house.
Gagne moved, Stover seconded, to accept RESOLUTION NO. 108-90. "A

REVIEW COMMENTS FROM PUBLIC HEARING
ON WATER TREATMENT PLANT
Haugen said she thought most residents wanted the iron removal
treatment but did not want the water softened. They also wanted to
increase the water rate to pay for the treatment.
Gagne said everyone. except two, wanted something done. He asked
whether there would be a savings if the City softened the water.
Norton said there would be economy of scale.
Haugen said that water is a City obligation. She would prefer the
treatment be paid for by T.I.F.
Gagne agrees with this. He wants to know how to proceed. He was
dissatisfied with the presentation of the report by Noel Vogen.
Haugen said the Council had two bids presented and, as usual, took
the lowest bid for the study.
Gagne said he, initially, wanted to get a reasonable cost.
Haugen asked if he wanted to go back to the City Engineer. Gagne said
yes.
Stover said she was also uncomfortable with the information.
Haugen wanted to know how the residents would get unsoftened water.
Norton said the residents should not drink softened water. Tonka Bay
does not soften down to zero hardness in their City water system,
which a home softener does.
Stover asked if there had to be a softener pond. Norton said there
does not have to be one.
Gagne wanted to know if Norton could give figures on the cost of
individual home softeners vs a City water softener. Norton said these
numbers could be generated.
Haugen wanted to know if the residents could wait until the TIF money
is available. Gagne said they probably could but he wants to be sure
the project is kept moving.
Stover wanted to know when the TIF money would be available to pay
bonds?
Finance Director Rolek said revenues will begin in 1993. Rolek said
the TIF plan can be amended to include the water treatment.
Stover said that the City would then spend money in 1991 and 1992.
Rolek said the City would bond ahead for the improvements and redeem
the bonds as TIF income is received.
Gagne asked if the City is in limbo.
Stover asked if the water treatment study is final.
Froberg said the City is not required to accept the study. If you
accept the feasibility study then the work is done with that engineer.
Haugen said if the Council wanted to go with the City Engineer then
they should have done this from the beginning. She is angry because
this has been done several times.
Gagne wants to know if the addition of a softener will make the
building larger. He does not think the money was wasted.
Brancel said the City should go with the current study. The money has
been paid and the residents did not object.
Brancel said she asked Administrator Whittaker to obtain the costs of
the water system in Tonka Bay but did not receive them.
Brancel moved. Haugen seconded. to adopt "A Resolution Accepting the
Feasibility Study on Iron Removal in the Southeast Water Area. II

1. GRANT LORENZ DRAINAGE.
The original intention of the project was to clean out the
ditch. If this is the only problem that is addressed, then
the problem is just moved downstream. The City has to make
sure the drainway is open to receive the additional water.
Public Works Director Zdrazil said the area of Noble Rd.
floods to Edgewood and the entire area needs to be cleaned
out.
Gagne wants to know if the Council has decided who will pay
for these drainage problems. Stover and Haugen said the
Council decided to use Special Taxing Districts as a method
of financing drainage projects.
Norton said the project is larger than the Public Works Dept.
can handle.
Stover moved. Gagne seconded. to order the City Engineer to

C. CITY PLANNING DIRECTOR.
1 . LMCD PLAN AND CODE AMENDMENTS
The LMCD Plan and Code are to be adopted this week
Nielsen asked if the Council had any further comments.
Haugen said she has received many letters and calls from
Orono, Wayzata and Spring Park. they are opposed to the
plan.
Haugen said the Council has given instructions to it's LMCD
representative. The shoreland plan adopted many of Shore-
wood's existing prOVISIons.
Bob Rascop, LMCD representative, told the Council that
there are four cities opposed to the LMCD plan. Orono
opposes the plan because they look at it as more govern-
ment interference. Spring Park and Wayzata are represented
by David Licht. They want uninhibited future development
on the lake. Victoria will vote with these three because
they feel Carver County should not be involved in funding
the LMCD management.
Rascop feels the plan may be adopted or could be tabled
for 30 days for more discussion.
The DNR has mandated the cities have a shoreland plan by
July 5, 1991. If the LMCD coordinates this then, perhaps,
Wayzata and Spring Park could have more development in
the overall plan. Some City Attorneys are saying the DNR
does not have the authority to do this.
There will be implementation problems, if some of the cities
do not agree to the plan.
Mr. Rascop said he appreciates the Council's support.

RE:
Rental Housing Code
FILE NO:
405 (Chapter 1004)
In July of this year notices were sent to all known owners of rental property in
Shorewood, advising them that they must be licensed pursuant to Chapter 1004 of the
City Code. Along with the notice we sent application forms, a summary of the Code
(attached), and a copy of the complete code.
After receiving several complaints from rental property owners, the Council agreed to
schedule an informational hearing for 8 October. Notice of the hearing has been
published in the newspaper and sent to all rental property owners.
The comments we've received can be summed up as follows:
1. Rental prop~rty owners had no input in the Code.
2. The Code discriminates against rental property as opposed to owner occupied
property.
3. Many asked how many problems we've had to justify such an ordinance. They
felt that the good were being imposed upon because of a few bad ones.
4. The proposed fees ($35 per year per unit) are too high.
-
5. Some were concerned about what kind of corrections would be required.

With regard to the fees, we attempted to cover the City's cost of administering the Code
and making the inspections. We did not suggest a sliding scale for single-family, two-
family and multiple-family dwellings because we can not anticipate getting into all units
in one trip. We will have comparison figures from other communities available at
Monday night's meeting.

CITY OF SHOREWOOD
OFFICIAL SUMMARY OF 0 RDIN ANCE NO. 223
On March 19, 1990, the Shorewood City Council adopted Ordinance No.
223 entitled: An Ordinance Amending Title 1000 of the Shorewood City Code
Adopting A Rental Housing Code. The Shorewood City Council hereby adopts
this Official Summary of the Ordinance.
Sharing the concerns of a growing number of Minnesota
communities, Shorewood has adopted a rental housing
code. T he intent of the new regulations is to correct
and prevent housing conditions that may adversely
affect the health, safety and general welfare of
Shorewood's rental popUlation. The code is also'
intended to improve and maintain the quality of
Shorewood's housing stock.
---'
T he new code establishes a proced ure for the licensing
of rental dwelling units, imposes minimum standards
relative to health and safety, provides for a system of
inspections, and establishes procedures for
administering and enforcing 'the code.
Anyone operating a rental dwelling unit must obtain a
license to do so. This requirement applies not only to
apartments, duplexes and double bungalows, but also
extends to single-family homes, or parts thereof (e.g.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Brad Nielsen
DATE:
2 October 1990
RE:
Designated Wetland Map - Proposed Amendment
FILE NO.:
405 (Chapter 1102)
Mr. Neil Vegsund, representing Plumbline Builders, Inc., has requested that the Shorewood
Wetlands Map be amended to delete the wetland designation over part of his property,
located at 6090 Lake Linden Drive (see Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached).
The area in question is shown on Exhibit B. As mentioned in Mr. Vegsund's request letter
(Exhibit C), dated 20 September 1990, he feels that the subject property does not, and has
not for quite some time served as a wetland. The inconvenience he mentions is that the new
house under construction on the property has had to be moved and the driveway relocated to
protect a nonexistent wetland. Furthermore, the future owner can not do normal landscaping
in front of his home to create a lawn.
Having reviewed Chapter 1102 of the City Code, staff concurs that the area in question
should not be protected as a designated wetland. The area in question was apparently filled
r
in years ago and serves neither a drainage function nor as wildlife habitat.
Although Chapter 1102 provides for variances to the wetland restrictions, a variance is not
the recommended solution to this problem. Rather, the ordinance should be amended to
delete the area in question from the Designated Wetland Map. It is therefore recommended
that the Council direct the City Attorney to prepare such an amendment for the 22 October
Council meeting.
The Council is urged to visit the site. If there are any questions relative to this matter,
please do not hesitate to contact me prior to the meeting.

Re: Remoyal of Wetland Designation
@ 6090 Lak~ Linden Drive
To Whom it may concern;
"
I
The following letter is a'-formal request, for the reviewa;l.
and consequential removal of the wetland designation.at 6090
Lake.Linden Drive. It is my understanding that .this .letter
is all required. for your attention-on this matter.
,
I would like to start by pointing out that the ar.eain
question does not currently serve- as a "Wet lan(:l " ; and' has
n6t for some time. I have been lead to believe by various
sources th.-at the "Wetland" was filled upon the City's
installation of sanita:ry sewer in the area some' time/ago.
It is my'bel~efthat the City'should have removed the ,~
de"signation prior to allowing -that j a'rea to be filled. In
,further support of mypo~ition I would like to point,~~€
that last wInter this property was subdivided. At that time
the City Engineer was to inspect the site and determine if
any easements or ,special grading was needed to enhance the
."Wetland" neither was required-at that time.
/ '. -- '
- Based on the current status. of this "Wetland" I am convinced_
that the intent of the W~tland Designation ~oes. not apply ih
this gl'Ven situation. Sinc'e subdivision of this property a
-single family residence is c~rrentlyunder construction on
the property. There has already occurred great -
iriconv~nience~ due to the obsolete deiignation oh this -
property. Since this property has already been sold my only
purpose in this appeal is-to relieve the "Future Resid(':nts"
any further hardships due 'to this ob.solete Wetland." .
Designation and to resolve: a matter that should have Qeen

October 4, 1990
RE:
Irrigation of Little League Field and related issues, Freeman
Park
I received the signed contract for the Little League field TODAY;
but, I have not received the certificate of insurance. Mark Koegler
finally connnected with Perkins Landscaping TODAY after five days
of unreturned phone calls. A preconstruction conference in NOW
scheduled for Oct. 22, 1990, at 9:00 A.M. in the City Hall - as that
is the earliest the contractor can begin work.
Mark still has not seen a copy of the proposed plan for the irriga-
tion system; but, he advised Perkins that the system should be com~
patible with the system now being installed in the northern area
of the park (Toro) so as to make maintenance and parts easier to
manage... IF irrigation is installed at this time.
IRRIGATION:
The Tonka Men's Club has NOW offered to pay for an irrigation sys-
tem IF the CITY OF SHOREWOOD extends the water line AND provides
power to the system. Mark Koegler estimates this will cost the
City at least $lO,OOO...IF the TorO and Hunter systems are about
the same cost. If Toro is highar, the Club has asked the City to
cover the difference ALSO.
As we discussed on other occassions, this ballfield was not a part
of the Freeman Park plan. The $5,000 + the City has already spent
to amend the plan, design the ~ields, survey the field, and prepare
grading plans - was not a part of the recommended or approved
capital expenditures for 1990. And, the City has not budgeted
$10,000 for irrigation - nor planned any irrigation for 1990.
The City Council did not appropriate funds for the parking lot im-
provements for this field at the Sept. 17,1990, meeting as the Coun-
cil was concerned that we must have funds to pay for any clean-up
necessitated by the underground tank removal by the Public Works
garage. However, that parking lot was recommended for 1990 funding
and construction by the Park Commission.

The staff cannot recommend appropriation of $10,000 + for irrigation
of the new Little League Field, at this time, because:
1. The City has not funded higher priority park projects;
2. It will probably be cheaper to irrigate all of the south
fields at one time (and extend water and power once);
3. The parking area is a higher priority at this time as there
is inadequate parking now and the new field will add to that
problem;
4. We have not appropriated funds for the reorientation of
the Cathcart Little League field NOR the parking area there
even though it was a 1990 priority of the Park Commission and
the Little League Association was willing to donate labor and
rock to improve the infield;
5. Estimates to "save" the Badger Park Shelter exceed $12,000;
and, this work must be done to save the building. The funds
have not been appropriated for this work either.
Like you, we do not want to discourage the Tonka Men's Club nor for-
feit ANY donations for parks. Instead, we would like to encourage
the Men's Club to either:
1. Donate the funds for the future irrigation of the field; OR,
2. Donate the funds for the improvement of the parking area to
alleviate an existing problem and address a higher priority pro-
ject.
We are all very encouraged by the enthusiasm and support of the Tonka
Men's Club. And, despite s great deal of confusion over the process
of getting their Little League Field built, we have supported and
encouraged their efforts throughout. However, we believe they should
be encouraged to shift goals a little to get the highest priority
projects done at the best possible price...and pursue an over-all
irrigation plan for the southern fields when that becomes a priority
for the Park Commission.
Mark assures me that irrigation.- while more difficult after con-
sturction of the field.- is not extremely disruptive. Irrigating
later will not delay using the field for the Little League teams.

Dear Larry:
As a follow-up to my telephone conversation with Brad Nielsen
earlier this week on the construction of the Little League field at
Freeman Park, I have examined several issues relative the to
irrigation of the field. It is my understanding that the Tonka
Men's Club has the resources available to install an underground
irrigation system at the new field. Furthermore, Jim Quast has
advised me that they are looking for the City of Shorewood to
absorb the cost of providing electrical and water services to the
site. We have examined the cost of connecting to the existing
water line that runs north of the proposed field. The cost of the
water tap and service line is estimated at $2,000.00.
I have also been in contact with NSP regarding the extension of an
electrical line into the area. Based on an on-site meeting with
Tien Buy of NSP, electrical power will need to be extended from the
line that is currently being brought into the northern portion of
the park. NSP's estimate of the cost of the electrical line is
$7,914.00.
The irrigation system is an unknown at the present time. We have
been attempting to get a copy of the proposed irrigation plan for
the field so that we can evaluate its compatibility with the system
now being installed in the park. I have tried to get a copy of the
plan from Perkins Landscaping who is the Men's Club's contractor
for the proje~t. Over the past week, I have called the contractor
on five occasions leaving messages each time. To date, none of my
ca 11 s have been returned. Consequent ly, I don't even know the
manufacturer of the proposed system.
I explained to Jim Quast thai the City of Shore wood would want the
Men's Club to install the same type of system that is now going
into Freeman Park. The system now being installed is manufactured
by Toro and utilizes S610 heads. Use of the same system throughout
the park is essential so that future maintenance is cost effective.
Mr. Qua s t co mm en t e d t hat if Per kin s Lan d s cap i n g had p 1 ann e d to
install a less expensive system than the Toro -system now being
installed, the Club may want the City of Shorewood to absorb the
cost differential. Obviously, without knowing what the system is,
we have no way of knowing the extent of any difference in cost.

In addition to trying to reach the contractor for a clarification
on the proposed irrigation system, I am also trying to reach them
to establ ish a date and time for a preconstruction meeting. A
preconstruction meeting is needed to establish a project completion
schedule and to make sure that all of the detail items have been
addressed. I will let you know as soon as a date and location for
a meeting has been established.
Based on the information at hand, it appears that the irrigation
system for the new Little League field will cost the City of
Shorewood at least $10,000.00.

I will keep you informed as new information becomes available on
this matter.

Kuempel Chime Clock - Revised Conditional Use Permit
405 (90.24)
In 1978 Kuempel Chime Clock Works and Studio, 21195 Minnetonka Boulevard (see Site
Location map - Exhibit A, attached), was granted a conditional use permit as an art
studio. At that time the property was never rezoned from residential to R-C, Residential
Commercial. In December of 1988 the rezoning was approved by the City and a new
C.U.P. was granted based largely upon the 1978 C.U.P. (see Exhibit B).
One of the conditions of their C. U.P. was that the business remain under the McGregor
family ownership. In a letter dated 4 September 1990, their attorney advises us that the
business will be sold to a new corporation called HSW, Inc., and he requests a new
conditional u~.e permit. According to'the McGregor's, Mary Jean McGregor is a part
owner of HSW and will continue to be active in the business. They state that nothing will
change relative to the way the business is operated.
ISSUES! ANALYSIS
The applicant's request is technically a very simple matter. First, despite the change in
ownership, a McGregor family member will still be involved in owning and operating the
business. More importantly it can be argued that ownership is not a defensible condition
for a C.U.P. Approval of a C.U.P. should be based on the acceptability of the land use,
not the acceptability of the owner.

Re: Kuemple Chime Clock
Revised C.D.P.
28 September 1990
A couple of issues which have arisen in the recent past should be addressed as part of this
application. Both have to do with previous landscaping requirements imposed by the City.
Apparently, the owner to the east was content with a proposal for an eight-foot privacy
fence in lieu of evergreen trees on the east side of the subject site (see Exhibit D). After
the fence was erected, they now indicate a preference for trees (see Exhibit E). It should
be mentioned that the applicant has planted the number of trees required by the City, in
addition to erecting a six-foot fence. To resolve this, the McGregors have agreed to
either replace the fence with trees or give some trees to the owners to the east to plant on
their side of the fence.
......
The second issue results from the landscaping done on the south side of the building. In
clearing and grading the site to accommodate the required evergreens, the applicant's
landscape contractor graded beyond their property line. The result is a cut slope which
exceeds the City's 3:1 maximum. To resolve this the applicants propose to construct a
retaining wall along the property line to lessen the grade separation to a slope of no more
than 3: 1. Plans for this work should be available for the hearing on 2 October.
RECOMMENDATION
Based upon the preceding it is recommended that the C.D.P. be granted subject to the
following:
1. Reference to ownership should be eliminated. If necessary the C.D.P. can state that
the studio shall continue to be operated in the same manner as it is presently operated.
2. The applicant's landscape plan should be revised to include a retaining wall along the
south property line.
3. The applicant should replace the fence with trees or provide a letter from the property
owner to the east stating that they are willing to accept trees on their side of the
fence.
4. Based upon their contractor's bid for the above-referenced wall and trees, a cash
escrow or letter of credit for 150 percent of the bid amount should be required.

Our File No. 1960-05
Dear Mr. Nielsen:
Enclosed herein for filing please find the Application for
Conditional Use Permit, mailing list, and $300.00 to be applied
toward filing fees.
HSW, Inc. is a newly formed corporation which intends to purchase
the assets of Kuempel Chime Clockworks & Studio, Inc. and
continue operations in the same manner. You should be advised
that Mary jean McGregor will be a 25% owner of the applicant
corporation. Although I believe this may satisfy the
requirements of Resolution No. 157.88, my clients wish to avoid
any disputes with the city by reapplying for the conditional use
permit.
It is my understanding that Mary jean McGregor has filed a letter
with your office on August 31, 1990, outlining the completion of
the landscaping on the premises thereby satisfying the landscape
requirements set forth in previous resolutions. Once again, it
is the intent of HSW, Inc. to lease the premises from Audrey A.
McGregor and operate the business of Kuempel Chime Clockworks &
studio, Inc.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Your
cooperation is and has been:appreciated.
Respectfully,
IATES, P.A.

Dear Mr. Wurm,
It was nice talking with you this morning. As we discussed,
a landscaping company will be giving us an estimate in the next few
days for the construction of a retaining wall along our property line
that will restore your land to a 3 to 1 grade in order to comply with
Shorewood Village requirements. We will be sending the information to
Shorewood Village, as well as a copy to you, just a soon as it is
available. We will go ahead with the construction of the retaining wall
as soon as possible.
Thank you for pointing out that although the grate and drainage pipe
partially sit on your property, you don~t feel it~s necessary to go to
the expense of having it moved over a short distance-. If at some time
in the future you consider it necessary, please let us know.
Thank you again for your consideration in these matters and your
willingness to work together.
Sincerely,
~i/ ~-,J Ildju~

RE: Nephew-Johnson Drain Tile
File No. 84-350
Dear Mr. Whittaker:
My client, Fred Nephew, was in to see me regarding the City of Shorewood's action
this summer to install a new drain tile on the east side of the roadway which
runs in front of Mr. Nephew's property at a point which is located in front of
the Johnson property where the water collects in a catch basin. As you know,
Mr. Nephew was protesting the plan of the city to install perforated drain pipe
for approximately 160 feet running north and south along the east side of the
roadway and draining into the catch basin along with surface waters and tile
line drainage from the Johnson property. It is Mr. Nephew's opinion that heavy
rains will cause subsurface water to collect beneath the perforated drain pipe
and eventually seep through the holes in the pipe causing a substantial amount
of water to be drained ultimately upon or through the Nephew property after it
leaves the outlet at the collection basin. Up to the time of the recent
construction changes made by the city to install this type of a drain pipe, the
existing surface water and roadway drainage ditch system did not overburden the
drainage capacity of Mr. Nephew's property to handle the water draining from
the neighbors across the road to the east. However, with the new drain pipe now
installed, it is anticipated that an excessive amount of subsurface water will
drain through the perforated pipe after heavy rains saturate the ground. This
is to notify the city that Mr. Nephew will look to it for payment of any damages
or correction of any drainage proble~s that result from this construction to
which he objected. There does not seem any justification or need to have "
installed an addition subsurface drainage system to overburden the drainage
capacity of Mr. Nephew on the other side of the road.
I have looked at the release given. the city in 1986 as a result of the lawsuit
that was brought at that time by Mr. Nephew against Mr. Johnson and the city,
and the release does not include damages which have occurred as a result of the
changes which are now initiated by the city and were not contemplated at the
time of the release. A close reading of the release will indicate quite clearly
that it has no application to the new situation which has been created.
y:~:.~. very truly,

Badger Field Park Building
4590.13
~'
I) PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Badger Park warming house is an' octagonal, wood frame building with a concrete
slab-on-grade foundation. The building is 10 to 11 years old and is located on the east side
of the Shorewood City Hall parking lot.
The building is constructed of 8 wood trusses spanning from each point of the
octagon to a center steel column inside. The exterior and interior walls are tongue and
groove wood panels. A concrete sidewalk surrounds the perimeter of the building, with a
transformer pad along the southeast side of the building. The parking lot abuts the north
and west sides of the building.
No construction drawings of the building are available.
II) THE PROBLEM
The bottom of the structure is suffering wood rot from overexposure to water, and
the concrete sidewalk around the perimeter has settled away from the building. The
caulking between the bottom of the wood building and concrete slab is in poor condition,
undoubtedly contributing to the wood rotting.
The wat~r which has caused the ,problem is believed to come from two sources:
..~..
1) improper drainage of the parking lot, which drains water towards the warming
house, and
2) placing the wood structure directly on the concrete slab, causing a "wicking"
problem of water up into the wood.
The deterioration of the concrete sidewalk is caused by differential settlement of the
sidewalk and the warming house, and freeze-thaw cycles may _have contributed to the
problem.

OSM Comm. No. 4590.13

III) SOLUTIONS
Because water is causing the problem it is imperative to divert the water away from
--~
the building. This can be achieved in two ways:
1) regrade the parking lot near the warming house to drain water away from the
building, or
2) place the building on a masonry or concrete curb, thereby placing the building
above any water.
Both solutions require replacement of the concrete sidewalk around the
building.
Regrading the parking lot to drain water away from the building eliminates the run-
off of water affecting the building. It does not eliminate the "wicking" effect of the water
running off the roof, nor does it take any measures to alleviate the wood rot problem. It
will prolong the life of structure with minimal maintenance costs.
The second option of placing the building on a masonry or concrete curb would be
achieved by cutting away the bottom 8" to 10" of the rotted wood structure and building the
masonry/concrete curb from below. This option eliminates the wood rot problem and
places the wood portion of the building above the level of water infiltration. To prevent
wood rot from occurring in the future, the wood will be treated with a chemical product.
Temporary shoring of the structure would be required.
The second option can also be used for the interior of the building which has suffered
some water pro1?,.!ems from wet carpets.!

V) RECOMMENDATION
The masonry or concrete curb option is our recommended solution to the problem.
It remedies the wood rot problem of the structure and provides a method to prevent it from
reoccurring.
