STAFF REPORT
Planner's Report
Thulin Variance Status
Planner Nielsen reported that originally Mr. Thulin had constructed
his fence too close to the street, and had applied for a permit to
keep the fence in the public right-of-way. He also said he was
going to apply for a variance to keep his boat closer to the road
than the Zoning Ordinance allows. He has now withdrawn his variance
requests and moved his fence and his boat.
Attorney's Report
Status Report on Water Tower Check Valve Warranty
Attorney ~roberg reported that Mr. Bruce Harding of Mooney & Associate
had been contacted to see if Golden-Anderson Industries, Inc. had
supplied them with a warranty on the 12" Globe Electric Check Valve
installed by Mooney & Associates in the Shorewood elevated water
tower. Froberg said he had received a call from Mr. Harding, who is
preparing a response. Froberg will report on this at the meeting of
October 23rd.

Animal Control
Froberg said he had received a letter from the Chanhassen Veterinary
Clinic with an Impound Agreement. Bob Zydowsky will be the Animal
Patrol Officer in charge. A proposed schedule and proposed contract
were also included. The Veterinary Clinic will bill the City of
Chanhassen, and Chanhassen will bill the City of Shorewood. Froberg
said the contract appears to be in line with the type of contract
the City has had with other parties in the past.
Wedgewood Road Condemnation
Froberg said the condemnation procedure has been completed. The
formal order of the Court will be received within 60 days. The City
can go on the property at any time to straighten Wedgewood Road.
Administrative Report
Special Census
Administrator Whittaker informed the Council that the "Special Census"
should be finished by next week. He said the census takers have
been working evenings and weekends, and have had a fair amount of
follow-up to do. He said enough has been done to verify a population
of over 5,000. The Federal people hope to certify it by the
middle of December.
Engineer's Report
Glen Road Drainage
Engineer Norton said he had received direction to set up a meeting
with the Watershed District. He contacted Mr. ~ahady and talked
to him about holding a formal meeting. Mahady suggested an informal
meeting with himself, Engineer Norton, a Board member, and a repre~
sentative from the City. Due to conflicting schedules the meeting
has not been held yet~ bUD it is being set up with Mr. Woodrow Love,
a member of the Board~ Mr. Mahady, their Engineer~ Engineer Norton~
and Councilmember Gagne.
Status Report on MnDOT meeting on Highway 7 Intersections
Engineer Norton said he and Planner Nielsen had met with Craig Robinson
and Mark Benson from MnDOT. He said the main discussion was on the
Christmas Lake Intersection and the Vine Hill Road Intersection. He
said they touched briefly on the Old Market Road Intersection. He
said he and Planner NiBlsen presented some of their concerns and
asked for consideration on items that they thought should be changed.
Mn~OT is going to make up a 4th drawing for Christmas Lake Road. They
feel the Vine Hill Intersection can be discussed at the time the Old
Market Road' Intersection is discussed.

7:45pm- PUBLIC HEARING: DELINGQUENT UTILITY BILLS
AND OTHER CHARGES TO BE CERTIFIED FOR
COLLECTION WITH 1990 PROPERTY TAXES
RESOLUTION NO.84-89
Mayor Haugen opened the Public Hearing at 7:45 P.M.
The Public Hearing was closed at 7:46 P.M. without public comment.
Mayor Haugen referred to a letter from Henry Vergnaud regarding pro-
perty at 5855 Glencoe Road. He was disputing his utility charges for
water and sewer. After discussing the situation with Niccum and
Finance Director Rolek, and finding out that the actual reading on
water was taken from the inside meter-which is accurate and that a
credit of $131.63 had been applied to the account-the Council agreed
to certify the currect delinquent charges as a part of Resolution No.84-~
Stover moved, Watten seconded, to approve Resolution No.84-89, - "A
Resolution directing Delinquent Sewer and Water Utility Charges and
Private Property Clean-up Charges be placed on the 1990 Tax Rolls."
Motion carrled - 5/0.
8:00pm- PUBLIC HEARING: PROPOSED 1990 GENERAL FUND BUDGET
Finance Director Alan Rolek explained that the notice the City published
in the newspaper was required by the State Department of Revenue. He
said that while it is true that the City is looking at a 16.9% increase
in their total levy, that doesn't necessarily mean that each individual
parcel of property is going to receive an increase in taxes. The
increase is necessary because growth of 18% in population demands
new services. He said what this actually means is an actual tax
rate decrease from approximately 16.5% this year to approximately 16.3%
next year. He said the reason this wasn't published was because it
didn't fit into the prescribed format the State gave us. He said the
reason there is a larger levy this year is because when there is that
amount of growth, more services have to be provided by the City: more
snowplowing, street lighting (an increase from 92 to 133), animal
control, park improvement, fire and police protection, as well as other
things.
Rolek said the City is looking at a State levy limit in the neighbor-
hood of $1,557,000. Our levy for 1990, is under that limit by $53,000.
Rolek said he has done research in the area on per capita spending per
City, the range is from $307 - $402 per capita,Shorewood's proposing
$359 per capita which lies somewhere in the middle of the range.
There are several increases in the budget this year, LMCD-50% for
Eurasian Milfoil, the Assessor's fees because of the increase in the
number of parcels, recycling fees have doubled, Animal Control has
gone up, and additional public works employee has been added to main-
tain parks a~d help with additional plowing.

A Capital Improvement Fund of $100,000 has been added. This will be
provided for park improvements, improvement of City properties,
acquisition of City properties for Public Works Facilities, Salt Buildingr
Street Improvements, etc.
A Contingency Fund has been provided for those expenditures that are
unforeseen.
Mayor Haugen opened the Public Hearing at 8:10 P.M.
Maude Wadsworth of 5460 Howards Point Road, asked how it would affect
someone with a very low income, saying that if she was taxed anymore
she would be taxed right out of her house and she didn't know where
she would go.
Stover stated that the way the newspaper form presented the tax increase
was terribly misleading, but the City had to follow that format. She
said the City did have a bigger budget, but they also have more people
paying. The City portion of the taxes should be a little less that it
was last year.
Mayor Haugen said they cannot give a final figure until the Legislature
makes a decision.
Jim Grahn of 5945 Eureka Road said Rolek's explaination does not explain
some of the budget increases that he thinks are exorbitant:

Police
Public Works
Streets and Roadways

He said it bothers him that the increase of $273,000, take out the
$150,000 Contingency,that he can account for almost 100% of the increases
in the above six areas.
Haugen said some budgeted items have been in unusual funds, and the
Finance Committee suggested moving some items so it's more understandable.

Auditor recommended a General Fund Reserve, which the City established.
This also helped improve the bond rating from BAA to A, which allows the

City to borrow money at a lower rate of interest.
Stover said the first draft of the budget showed a Contingency Fund of
$150,000. The Finance Committee suggested dividing it into a Contin-
gency Fund of '50,000 and a Capital Improvement Fund of $100,000.
Stover also said that the Recycling Budget of $45,000 was under the
City Hall fund. This was moved to sanitation, so that maintenance of
the City hall can be presented more accurately.
Haugen explained that the revised budget will be available before the
next Public Hearing.
Whittaker said anyone can review the budget at the City Hall or buy one
for $4.35.
Gagne told the residents that his salary as a Councilmember is $150
monthly, and the annual total for the whole Council is $9,652.
Park/Recreation/Beaches
30% increase
Gagne said the City is just starting to develop Freeman Park, a 50 acre
site with ballfields, etc. There is also a new park in the Southeast
area, Silverwood Park,that the area residents want to see improved. The
new hockey rink for Cathcart Park will cost $5,000. He said the Park
Commission tries to "pinch pennies"; but, it takes a lot of money to
improve and maintain the parks.
Haugen said she has been encouraging the Park Commission for years to
complete what we start. For instance, the City Council transfered
$ 1~000 to the Park Capital Projects Fund to fence the ballfields to
protect an investment of $100,000 in new ballfields and, she said the
Park system has doubled in size; so we need additional equipment and
another full-time employee to do the job right.
Administrator Whittaker said there has been a 20% increase in our miles
of streets. This means more plowing, street lighting, street maintenance,
salt-sand, etc~ The person hired for parks will be used in Public Works
in the wintertime to assist with this.
Richard Carlson - Cathcart Drive - said they moved into Shorewood in
1978 and lived on Timber Lane, on the lake. Taxes at that time were
$1,800. After 17 years, the taxes went up to $5,800. Then, they moved
over to Cathcart and the taxes were $2,600-2,700, now they are up. Then
they brought a property on Lake Linden Drive with taxes of $700+. They
are now $2,900+. He said they bought a house for their daughter on
Smithtown Road 5 years ago and the taxes have doubled. He asked if the
City still gets a straight line percentage of each parcel each year?
He asked where all the increased taxes from the new expensive develop-
ments are going.

Richard Carlson - Cathcart Drive - Continued
Haugen said Shorewood is basically a bedroom community, and does not
have a large income from Commercial property like some of the other
cities do. Therefore, residential property owners bear the brunt. She
said the tax base expanded over 15% last year because of the building,
but the actual taxes, the City share, did not go up. She said the
taxes you have to worry about are the school and the County, because
they have increased.
One resident said he would vote for an increase in property taxes if the
City would hire a lobbyist to go to the County!
Carlson said he works 65 hours a week now, and he doesn't want to have
to work 75 hours a week for the rest of his life to pay his taxes.
Haugen said she has gone to the Legislature every year and yelled in as
many ears as she can about the property tax. The State should pay for
the programs it mandates, the property taxes should pay for services
related to property: roads, utilities, and City Government. She said
if enough people go talk to the Legislature, loud enough, maybe eventually
it will get through.
Greg Stringer - 19710 Sweetwater Curve - said he has been in the Council's
position himself, and he understands the position they are in tonight.
He said Shorewood has lead the Twin Cities in the per parcel tax rate-
head and shoulders above the rest-for the years he has been here. He
asked if the working capital, the Contingency Fund, and raising the bond
are issues that can be expected every year or if this is an issue
that can be phased in over time. He also said the City should stop
buying parkland. He thinks there are plenty of schools whose lands can
be used as parklands with ballfields and so on. He doesn't think the
City needs new ballfields that are not attached to school properties.
Finally, he said, he would like the Council to explain to him the up to
24 month lag on property tax on new properties in the context of next
year's budget. He said if we have grown this much, are we seeing the
property taxes corne in now? Or are we going to see this year's growth
corne in in terms of property tax receipts next year? He said the effect
of all this is to discourage new growth. He thinks the City just has
to control the budget. He said he had talked to Rolek and asked him
whether he employed the zero base budgeting or the incremental budgeting
technique. He said his answer was very clear, and it was incremental
base budgeting. He said in his opinion every thing in the budget has to
be justified.
Haugen said she thought the budget items were gone through line by line.
Rolek said they are. Administrator Whittaker said the budget increases
are not incremental changes in established spending habits. There are
new' expenses such as recycling, truth in taxation, tree removal-mandated
programs that the City can not control. Whittaker pointed out that the
City has never special assessed for street improvements, overlaying,
sealcoating, other items that are often assessed in other cities. If
you added the assessments that people pay in other cities to their

property taxes, Shorewood's property taxes would be fairly modest. He
said this budget attempts to set aside money for Capital Improvements
that have been long talked about but never finished. We have a Capital
Improvement plan for parks, but no budget for those improvements except
the revenues that new homes generate through park donations. In 3-5
years most of the large buildable parcels in this City will be platted
and developed. There won't be revenues from individual homes through
park donations. We won't have a continually increasing tax base to pay
for street improvements or to finish the parks that are already planned.
We need to start putting $100,000 a year aside now so we can build up
the fund gradually and avoid tax increases later.
Whittaker said the City does not plan to buy more park land. Whittaker
also explained the Conti~ency Fund. He said the Bond Rating will make
a big difference over a period of time by reducing interest costs.
Stringer said he was glad to see that the City realizes that the growth
will stop, and he feels that now is the time to curtail the budget.
Jim Pennington - 5860 Eureka Road - said he is one of the "new residents".
He wanted to know who is on the Financial Committee. He said he would
like to be on it. Stover said the members of the Committee have strong
financial backgrounds. He said he noticed they have received a 15%
increase and they spent it. He asked if they figure out how much they
are going to get, then figure out how to spend it? Whittaker said that
they had the potential, under State law, of a 20% increase, and they
didn't do it. He said no, they did not make any attempt to spend all the
money they could possibly get, in fact the City's never done that.
Pennington said a 15% increase is very significant. He asked if they
were serious about this? Stover asked him if he realized that his
taxes were not going up? He said he asked Alan Rolek for a histogram
and did not receive any information. He did say he came in at the end
of the day and realized people were busy. He said a cap should be put
on revenue increases. He said the bottom line is that the City is
spending 15% more this year. Whittaker said the City has $4,500,000 of
capital improvements that have been listed and never financed in this
City. The $100,000 continge~cy fund, plus the original $50,000 from
previous years, and State Ai~ Highway monies are going to help pay for
. those improvements that we know have to be made. Collector streets
are going to have to be improved in some areas, as are intersections.
There will be improvements to the water and sewer systems, and lift
stations. Engineer Norton said there are 14 lift stations. They were
put in, in 1974 and have a life expectancy of 15 years, 7 of them are
scheduled to be replaced 'this year at a cost of $20,000 per pump.
Pennington said you have to start drawing the line somewhere. The
Council reminded him that their taxes go up also. He said taxes are
a concern and thats what he's here about.

8:00pm-PUBLIC HEARING: PROPOSED 1990 GENERAL FUND BUDGET - CONTINUED
Mr. Vernaro - Seamans Drive - asked how much money was generated this
year for parks. Staff left the meeting and returned saying 27 lots paid
lot fees amounting to a total of $13,50U for 1989. Whittaker asked why
he wanted to know? He said the City wanted more money for parks and he
didn't think they know how much money they actually have.
He also asked if the water system that the City has right now is self-
funding, or if the general revenue is still paying for it. Mayor Haugen
said the Badqer Well, because of the way the fundinq is done, is sub-
sidized. Vernaro asked out of general fund how much is being spent
currently? Whittaker said last year the accumulated total was $24,000,
that was including debt service funds and emergency maintenance improve-
ments that could not be supported by the water fund. Vernaro asked if
, the City has reserves in the water department to cover maintenance costs,
repair costs, and operating costs? Whittaker said no. Vernaro asked
why? Whittaker said he wasn't here at the time but he thought it was
because the Council felt it couldn't raise water rates sufficiently to
build up that fund for future capital improvements. Vernaro said that
everyone that does not live in one of these developments has been, and
will continue to pay for the City water system. Whittaker said yes,
unless ther~s a significant change in the policy, such as people being
required to hook up, or systems are extended voluntarily to other resi-
dents. Vernaro said he felt any water system in any municipality should
be self-funding. Whittaker said they are; but, typically they have two
other policies that Shorewood does not have. They either require every-
one to hook in without the option of having your own well or the Council
insists that the rates support the water system regardless of the affect
on the users. The City has chosen not to do this. Vernaro asked why?
Gagne said he thought it had been explored a few years ago, and the City
was only allowed to charge so much. Vernaro asked why they didn't back up
taxes for once. Whittaker said they have backed up 4 out of the last
5 years. Vernaro said he didn't believe it. Whittaker said the numbers
are there. Vernaro said the City always has numbers.
Jim Sullivan - 5800 Covington Road - said he is a recent addition to
Shorewood. He said he feels what exists is a failure to communicate,
and cited several examples. He referred to a letter that he received
from Merrill Lynch Real~y stating that Shorewood is higher than all
surrounding cities. He said he didn't think the residents particularly
wanted to be the highest. He said the residents want the City to watch
out for the residents. Haugen referred to past history, explaining how
the City tried to keep the taxes down, and did so to the point where
they ended up with two choices, either double taxes, or turn the City
over to the State. The Council then doubled taxes, and has tried since
that time to lower taxes.
The Council explained the' budget process in detail to the residents.
Jim Slaughter - 5570 Old Market Road - said he felt the residents need
better information. He wants lower taxes. He asked if there is any-
thing in the budget, or any contingency set aside, to open the inter-
section of Old Market Road? Whittaker said no. He said, then, $1,000,000
will have to be raised in addition to the budget. Whittaker said the

the estimate received was half a million dollars, not a million. He
said they have not reached any agreement with the developer of the pro-
perty, or explored other alternatives. Whittaker said the hearing has
been continued. Slaughter said we should assure ourselves that it won't
be done as a burden to the taxpayers.
Ed Post - 28050 Woodside Road - asked how much the tax base has gone
up in the last 5 years? Rolek said it is difficult to say because they
have changed the way they value property. Rolek said the total market
value of the City is approximately $313,000,000. Post asked what tax
capacity means? Rolek said thats what took the place of assessed
valuation. Assessed valuation is a percentage of your estimated market
value of your home. He explained how it was done 2 years ago. He said
it was changed last year, and this is what makes it difficult to ex-
plain. The Council agreed that it is difficult to understand. They
said they have asked for simplification.
Haugen suggested people contact their State Legislature and the Governor
and stress simplification.
Whittaker said the City will not know until the middle of November what
the assessed valuation (tax capacity) of the City is. He said the next
hearing will provide more information. Whittaker said residents should
tell the City if it spends too much or too little on certain programs.
He asked what level of service they want and what can you do without to
lower taxes? What facilities do you want? How many acres of park do you
want? Think about these things and let the Council know your feelings at
the next hearing.
Brancel suggested people review the budget done by Rolek, she said it
goes back through 1987, and gives information people have been requesting.
Brock Austin - Sweetwater - said he does have a copy of the budget, and
he does have specific questions:
Page 10 - 43 Working Capital
He said in 87 and 88 there wasn't any working capital, but in 1990 there
is $37,000. He said they were told earlier that there is a $100,000
contingency, and another $50,000 contingency on top of that, why? He
said he would feel better if they had amended the budget if they had
difficulty. The Council asked, with what? Stover said each of these
contingencies is for different things. The Contingency Fund is for un-
knowns. The working Capital fund allows the City to function without
borrowing money. The Capital Improvement Fund is good planning. We can
avoid raising the budget immensely in some future year. We can avoid
bonding and interest to pay for capital improvements.

City has concerns that are unique to a metropolitan community that we
don't share with outstate communities, and they lobby very hard so we
get an equal share of the State pie. The professionals belong to Pro-
fessional Associations so they can enhance their skills to deal with
changes.

Whittaker said that a system was purchased two years ago, an IBM System
36, that because of inadequate planning was not functional, Software for
municipalities was not available. Now, working with a consultant, the
City is trying to make the system functional in the most economical way
possible.

Haugen said the City has a Labor Relations Company that represents the

court decisions, etc.

REZONING AND PRELIMINARY PLAT - HEIGHTS OF ST. ALBANS BAY
Applicant:
Location:
Gene Erickson
S.E. quadrant of St. Albans Bay Road and Manor Road
Rick Sathre and Gene Erickson were present.
Stover said the information in the packet was based on the 2nd revision,
but the Planning Commission heard a 3rd revision that the applicant
brought to the meeting. The Planning Commission made a motion to re-
commend approval of the rezoning with the conditions that lot lines for
lots 5-8 be made more perpendicular with St. Albans Bay Road, the City
Engineer consider requiring storm sewer for drainage/erosion control on
the grade toward Manor Road, and the Developer follow the Planner's re-
commendations.
Watten and Gagne said they had received quite a few calls regarding this
request.
Planner Nielsen showed an overhead of the proposed project. He said that
for that area, the Comprehensive Plan adopted in 1981 proposed low-
medium density residential for the area bounded by St. Albans Bay Road/
Manor Road/Highway 7. It recommended 2/3 units per acre. He pointed out
the square footage of the surrounding lots. He said the density works
out to about 1.2 units per acre.
Stover said she believed this plat should meet the Comprehensive Plan
standards for the area east of Suburban Drive.
Gagne asked how many lots you could get without rezoning? Nielsen said 7
without rezoni~g, 8 with rezoning.
Haugen asked why it's important to have the lot lines perpendicular to
St. Albans Bay Road. Nielsen said they try to make the lots as per-
pendicular to the road as possible, also as perpendicular to the topo-
graphy as possible to improve the drainage. He said the developer had
been trying to plat the lots for best view of the lake.

REZONING AND PRELIMINARY PLAT - HEIGHTS OF ST. ALBANS BAY - CONTINUED
Brancel asked if there was any way to prevent the driveways from running
through the lot, entering on one road and exiting on the other? Nielsen
said he would check with Attorney Froberg.
Rick Sathre of Sathre Berquist said he felt the logical driveway locations
would be on St. Albans Bay Road because it is the higher road. He also
discussed the cul-de-sac, saying he felt replatting would result in
safer access as parcels would use one cul-de-sac rather than individual
access to St. Albans Bay Road.
Sathre discussed the proposed pond area. He said it is a retention pond,
a watershed requirement. The runoff would drain into the pond and would
slow down the flow. The pond would not hold water all the time, it would
be a depression that would be available for ponding when needed. The
pipe and pond would be maintained by the City.
Planner Nielsen mentioned Spellman's concern over erosion in the ravine.
The suggestion was that the Engineer should consider installing storm
sewer part or all of the way down the ravine.
A petition was received from neighbor's in the area objecting to the
proposed rezoning. There were 35 signatures on the petition.
Nielsen said from an overall planning standpoint, it makes more sense to
plat the whole parcel than to do it piecemeal. He discussed the adjust-
ments of the lot lines.
Gagne moved, Stover seconded, to have the City Attorney draw a Resolution
for Findings of Fact to allow 7 lots without a zoning change.
Gagne withdrew his motion, Stover agreed.
Gagne moved, Brancel seconded, to amend the Zoning Ordinance to RI-B.
Sathre said the neighbors are afraid of the future. He said there are
some very compelling reasons for approval, it could correct a very
substandard lot, that its a transitional site to Highway 7, there's an
opportunity to bring srveral landowners together into one project where
problems can be overcome and it would prevent a hodge-podge. He suggest-
ed tying the plat to zoning action.
Walter Bean said he thinks the City needs a compelling reason for rezoning
He said he has strong reservations about the City accepting the pro-
posed road as a City street. He asked if a formal action would have to be
taken to vacate "no name lane". Attorney Froberg said yes. He also
pointed out that the existing house is on Lot 4, not Lot 5. He asked who
would own the pond? Sathre explained the pond area, and how the water
would enter and exit.
Motion to amend the Zoning Ordinance to RI-B was denied by Roll Call Vote.
1 aye (Watten) - 4 nays.
Brancel moved, Gagne seconded, to adopt Resolution No.85-89 to deny the
Preliminary Plat as it does not fit the zoning of RI-A. Motion carried -
5/0.

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
Applicant:
Location:
Minnesota Cellular Telephone Company
5500 Old Market Road
Brancel asked who was informed? Planner Nielsen said all residents
within 500 feet, he said 61 notices were sent out.
Brian Rogers was present to represent the Minnesota Cellular Telephone
Company. He said they have a licensed service area that includes 10
counties. They have a problem because they do not have sufficient
coverage in this area. He went on to talk about the St. Louis Park
Water Tower. He said they have 6 22~" X 30~" antennaes on that tower,
and this is what they are proposing for the Shorewood tower. He said
the building would be a concrete structure 12' X 28' X 10' high. It
would be surrounded by a chainlink fence. he said in May of 1988 there
were 10,200 phones, by October of 1989 there were 20,000 phones. He
said nationwide during that period the count jumped from 5.94 per 1000
to 9.1 per 1000. He said the site can carry 45 calls. There are 26
existing sites at this time. The interference complaints have been
zero. The signal is 100 watts ERP. It's an FM signal. They are willing
to pay a fair lease rate.
~augen said it is the worst looking building she has ever seen in her
life and asked if they would propose a different type building.
Brancel said she was told the structure would be partially underground and
this is not shown. She also said they showed straight antennaes.
Engineer Norton asked if they had contacted CBI about installing the
antennaes on the tower. He said the holes proposed are quite large.
Norton also a~ed about the radio interference, and if they had tested
the frequency yet. Rogers said no, this would be done before the next
meeting. Norton said it is important as radio signals are used to
start and stop the pumps serving the water tower.
Stover said there are a lot of questions that have not been answered.
Rogers said the building is portable and bulletproof.
The Council would like to see an aesthetically pleasing building, know
about the frequencies, CBI's opinion, etc.
Watten moved, Brancel seconded, to continue the matter until Monday,
October 23, 1989. Motion carried - 5/0.
SETBACK VARIANCE/VARIANCE TO EXPAND A NONCONFORMING USE
Applicant:

Herbert Mason
27010 Edgewood Road
Herbert Mason-said he bought the property with two houses on it 17 years
ago because it met the needs of his family. He said the two houses
cover 10% of the land. He said he is aware of the nonconformity, and
that the houses are grandfathered in, however he doesn't feel it is fair
that he isn't allowed to make improvements. He explained how the gazebo

was built where it is. He said he would be willing to tear down his
other accessory building on the property in exchange for retaining the
gazebo. He said all his neighbors approve of the gazebo and think it
enhances the property. Planner Nielsen said it is a nonconforming use
and he doesn't feel the gazebo meets hardship requirements.
Watten and Gagne both said the gazebo is a pleasing addition. Nielsen
said the Council should decide if they would have allowed the gazebo if
It were not already built.
Stover moved, Haugen seconded, to instruct the City Attorney to prepare
Findings of Fact for denial of the variances. Motion failed - 3 ayes -
2 nayes (Haugen and Stover).
Brancel moved, Watten seconded, to direct the City Attorney to draw a
Resolution showing Findings of Fact to approve removing the accessory
building in exchange for retaining the gazebo. Brancel withdrew her
motion, with Watten's approval.
Brancel moved, Gagne seconded, to continue this issue until the 1st
meeting in January 1990, with the explicit approval of the applicant,
thus giving the Council time to consider an amendment to the Ordinance,
permitting such accessory structures with non-conforming uses. Motion
carried - 5/0.
The Council is requested to give their suggestions regarding an amend-
ment to the Ordinance to Planner Nielsen and Administrator Whittaker.

Planner's Report
Planner Nielsen reported that he has selected 2 finalists for the
position of Recording Secretary. He said the pay scale would be
$75. for meeting attendance and preparing minutes, if the meeting
ended before 10:00 P.M., $100 after 10:00 P.M., and a $20 retainer
fee if a meeting is not held. Taking Council minutes was also
discussed at a rate of $150 per meeting as Council meetings are
usually longer and more complicated. The Council agreed to ask
the 2 finalists about doing the Council minutes. The selected per-
son could back up Niccum and replace her in 1990 if necessary and
the person writes good minutes.
Gagne moved, Stover seconded, to have Planner Nielsen make an offer
to the applicants for the position of Recording Secretary as pro-
posed. Motion carried - 5/0.

RE:
Consent Agenda, October 23 meeting
ITEM 3.A. Resolution Making Appointments: At the last meeting, you
adopted Resolution 83-89 combining the offices of City Administrator
and City Clerk and combining the offices of Finance Director and Treasurer.
That Resolution did not, however, did not appoint anyone to those posi-
tions or to the positions revised by that action: Deputy Clerk and
Assistant Clerk.
"A Resolution Making Appointments to Certain Offices and Positions"
completes the reorganization. The only task remaining is to review
the revised job descriptions for these positions. I'm still working
on these.
ITEM 3.C. Permanent Appointment of "me": I have asked the Department
Heads to share their thoughts on my permanent appointment with you -
confidentially. Their recommendation will be sent under separate
cover. I would also like to reflect on this some - and would encourage
you to delay the decision until the November 6 workshop if you have
any reservations what-so-ever. I thinle it would be good for us to dis-
cuss performance, responsiveness, style, and competence at that more in-
formal meeting.
It is hard to believe that manly six months...We have:
1. Settled with the Union and averted a strike;
2. Contracted with a new recycling company and kept that program
going;
3. Completed the reconstruction of the ballfields in Freeman Park;
4. Developed and adopted a Pay Plan for all of the employees - and
completed performance reviews;
5. Virtually completed the Comparable Worth study;-
6. . .Found a temporary solution to our animal control problems by
contracting with the City of Chanhassen;
7. Approved & preliminary budget for 1990 despite the uncertainty
of State regulations - a budget which includes, for the first time,
a specific commitment to a Capital Improvements Program without
a significant increase in individual property taxes;
r 8. Reorganized and redefined four positions to better take advan-
tage of employee skills and more clearly delineate lines of res-
ponsibility;

We have also:
9. Worked hard w~cn the Park Commission to define the capital
improvements needed to complete the park system - as well as
developed a survey to assess S.E. Area residents preferences for
Silverwood Park;
10. Worked even harder to assess the impact of Waterford III on
the S.E. Area and the ways to meet the traffic needs of that area;
11. Enjoyed our first goose round-up;
12. Layed some groundword for a comprehensive Capital Improvements
Program and assessment policy;
13. Completed a Special Census to qualify for State Highway Aids;
14. Improved the Light-rail transit right-of-way to the great ap-
proval of many residents;
15. Maintained the funding for the Senior Citizen Center and Housing
Rehabilitation despite the allocation of CDBG funds to the Special
Census;
16. Almost completed the assessment of our computer needs;
17. Developed a Cafeteria Benefit Plan (Section 125) for Council
review;
18. Agreed to offer Dental Insurance to all employees;
19. Completed the review and appointment of three new employees;
20. Transferred Utility Billing to the Finance Dept. - cutting
the delay in billing by six weeks;
21. Defeased and refinanced several bond issues freeing funds for
long-needed capital improvements and reducing our interest expense;
22. Negotiated new contracts with the City of Mound - for Fire pro-
tection, the Assessor - for 1990, Tonka Bay - for water service,
and Excelsior - for the lease on the SLMPSD building;
23. Provided for the preservation of the ponds in Amesbury while
protecting the groundwater and drainage systems;
24. Reorganized and/or built much of the central filing system;
25. Lobbied for property tax reform;
26. Fixed the persistEnt erosion problem on Lindilien' s property;
27. Established a contract file;
28. Begun discussions with adjacent cities on joint Public Works
ventures;
29. and converted the old kitchen into a chain-smoking section,
as it was always intended.
This has been exhilarating and satisfying for me - especially since the
"we" - who have accomplished all of this - is the City Council and the
Staff...with the advice and assistance of our Advisory Commissions and
Professional consultants.
"We: haye an exceptional group that, I believe, is becoming a team. And,
"we" have been able to list all of these things in addition to the ongoing
activities we are ,each and collectively responsible for. "W~'have even
been able to do this with me typing some of my own Memos.
However, the list may ndt address the most important concerns you have
in appointing a City Administrator. It touches on performance and res-
ponsiveness - and perhaps competence. It may even hint at style - but
not as much as the way this Memo is written and typed. But, it doesn't

Page three - and the last page, I promise
evaluate the most important elements - which are, I believe, "comfort"
with my approach to the job; confidence in the actions, decisions and
recommendations coming from this office; approval and appreciation of
the ~elationships which a~e developing between us and between ~e and
the staff, the Commissions, and the consultants; and, satisfaction
with the performance of everyone concerned - including me.
I feel we are doing very well in all of these areas and we have even
better things to look forward to. However, I would appreciate your
feedback and, ultimately, your support for my permanent appointment.
I think it is very important that you feel this is a good fit and that
it can only get better. With your support and comments, I would like

Thank you. I have certainly enjoyed serving you and the City of Shore-

OSM Comm. No. 1744.93
Dear City Officials:
The Developer on this project, Ms. Nancy Strickland Balogh, has requested a
reduction in the letter of credit. Based on the amount of work done to date, which
is primarily the sewer work at a cost of $32,547.00, I recommend a reduction of
$48,820.50 (150% of $32,547 = $48,820.50). I understand the Letter of Credit is
currently $100,000 with the First National Bank of Wayzata.
On a separate issue concerning this plat, the Developer has requested postponing
placement of the Peach Circle Road Base from her scheduled August 31, 1989 date to
the summer of 1990. I have no problem with this request, however, the construction
area of Peach Circle must be left in a well graded condition to eliminate ruts and
depressions which could inhibit proper runoff in the spring and pose a potential
hazard this winter.
If you have any questions, please call.

NEMORANDUM
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION, MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BRAD NIELSEN
DATE: 27 SEPTEMBER 1989
RE: CHRISTIAN, ROSE - SIMPLE SUBDIVISION/COMBINATION
FILE NO.: 405 (89.29)
BACKGROUND
Ms. Rose Christian proposes to purchase approximately the southerly 150 feet
of the lot located at 5830 Brentridge Drive and combine it with her property
located at 5905 Howard's Point Road (see Site Location map - Exhibit A,
attached). Both properties are zoned R-IC, Single-Family Residential.
Ms. Christian's property currently contains approximately 22,236 square feet
of area. As shown on Exhibit B she proposes to buy 7550 square feet of the
lot immediately east of hers. As a result of the division/combination her
lot will contain 29,786 square feet and the Brentridge lot will be reduced to
32,656 square feet in area.
ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION
According to Ms. Christian she is buying the property east of hers to ensure
that nothing will be built there. In addition to controlling the property it
increases the buildability of her lot. By the same token the piece being
conveyed was virtually useless for building purposes.
Since the Brentridge lot has existing drainage and utility easements on it, a
public hearing has been scheduled to vacate the easement on the parcel she is
buying. That hearing will be conducted by the City Council on 23 October.
New easements must be established 10 feet on each side of each rear and side
lot line of the newly configured lot.

MEMORANDUM
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BRAD NIELSEN
DATE: 5 OCTOBER 1989
RE: CEDAR HEIGHTS - FINAL PLAT
FILE NO.: 405 (88.50)
Kelly Bosworth requests approval of a final plat for Cedar Heights (see Exhibit
A, attached). Based upon review of the plat and the requirements imposed when
the preliminary plat was approved, the following should be considered:
1. The road has been shortened a bit which will result in less site alteration
and lower construction costs. Although lot lines have been adjusted
somewhat, all of the lots exceed the minimum size requirements for the R-IC
zoning district.
2. Plans and specifications for the private road, utilities and grading have
been submitted. Approval of the final plat should be subject to the City
Engineer's and Chanhassen's City Engineer's recommendations.
3. The applicant has submitted easement documents for the road, utilities and
drainage. These are subject to favorable review by Shorewood's and
Chanhassen's City Attorneys.
4. Prior to release of the final plat, the applicant must provide one letter
of credit in the amount of 110% of the cost of utility construction (for
Chanhassen) and a second letter of credit in the amount of 150% of the cost
of all other improvements (for Shorewood).
5. The plat should be changed to show the private road as an outlot.
6. The applicant must provide copies of any declaration of covenants and
homeowner's association by-laws, etc. relative to ownership and maintenance
of the private road and sewer.

SUBJ:
Consider Utility Service to
Shorewood and Approve Plans
Kelly Bosworth
File No. 89-21 (pvt)
Cedar Heights Addition,
and Specifications
The attached plan sheet calls for the extension of sanitary sewer
and water service into the Cedar Heights subdivision in
Shorewood. As noted, this crosses the City limits into
Shorewood. This parcel is unable to be serviced with utilities
from Shorewood and, as such, plat approval has been delayed until
the applicant, Hr. Bosworth, receives approval from the City of
Chanhassen for sewer and water service. As noted in the attached
August 18, 1989 correspondence from the City of Shorewood, the
City of Shorewood has no objection to Chanhassen providing this
service nor maintaining these utilities. Previous approval for
this service had been provided although it was ambiguous as to
whether water service was included. The roadway would remain as
a private drive as noted; however, the sanitary sewer and water-
main would become City of Chanhassen utilities for repair and
maintenance. Obviously, the appropriate trunk charges and useage
fees would also be collected from these respective properties
even though they would lie in Shorewood.
It is therefore recommended that the City Council approve the
extension of City sanitary sewer and watermain to service the
Cedar Heights subdivision in Shorewood in accordance with the
attached plan dated August 11, 1989 with the following
conditions:
1. The utility construction shall be in accordance with the City
of Chanhassen's standard specifications.
2. Appropriate utility easement (attached) be provided to the
City of Chanhassen for the sanitary sewer and watermain
lines.

4. Appropriate permits be obtained for this construction from
the Watershed District, Department of Health and the
Metropolitan Waste Control Commission.
5. The developer enter into a development contract with the City
for the installation of these utilities and provide the City
with the necessary financial security called for.
6. Extension of these utilities is to service no more than three
(3) residential single-family lots.

Re: Sunset Lane
We are requesting the city to vacate part of Sunset Lane.
We desire to build an addition to our home. Since we are a corner
lot abutting Sunset Lane and West Lane our side yard set back is
greater than an internal lot.
Rather than request a variance to the setback requirements, we
are requesting the vacation of 16 feet of Sunset Lane which will
leave a right-of-way of 50 feet (the normal width of a road).
This request will not affect anybody else. The neighhor who
wishes to maintain her options, will continue to have that
option. The other neighbors will continue to remain exactly as
they are now and therefore be comfortable that nothing has changed
for them.
The \.6 feet of vacated land will allow us to meet the required
set back for the addition to our home.

MEfIlORANDUM
TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BR~ NIELSEN
DATE: 19 OCTOBER 1989
RE: STREET VACATION REQUEST - SUNSET LANE
FILE NO.: STREETS - Sunset Lane
Kristi stover requests that the City vacate a 16 foot wide strip of Sunset
Lane, a platted but undeveloped street adjoining the south side of her property
(see Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached). The reason for her request is
to allow an addition to be built on the south side of the house. Since the lot
is a corner lot in the R-1A zoning district, it requires a 50 foot setback from
Sunset Lane as well as West Lane. Vacating the 16 foot strip of Sunset Lane
provides the space necessary to avoid a variance request, something she does
not feel would be appropriate for the City to grant.
When staff was originally approached with this problem, it was suggested that
the best thing to do would be to vacate all of Sunset Lane lying east of West
Lane. This suggestion was based upon a study done in June of 1985 which
determined that underdeveloped property to the east would best be accessed by
Orchard Lane. The staff report from which the decision was made is attached
for your review (copied in yellow).
After consulting with surrounding neighbors, Mrs. Stover found that the owners
of the above-referenced property are reluctant to have the street vacated at
this time. They prefer to keep their options open until such time as they
develop their property. Out of respect for their concerns, Mrs. Stover asks
that only 16 feet of Sunset Lane be vacated at this time. This still leaves a
50 feet r.o.w. for a future road if the property is ever developed that way.
A decision is not needed on Monday night, however, the City Council must set
the date for a public hearing. November 13 is the suggested date.
If you have any questions relative to this matter, please do not hesitate to
contact my office.

PErRON, JACK - SI~PL~ SUBDIVISION
FILE NO.
405 (85.23)
BACKGROUND
Mr. and Mrs. John Petron have requested on behalf of Mrs. Petron's mother,
Eileen Saleme, approval of a simple subdivision of Mrs. Saleme's property
located at 4865 Suburban Drive (see Site Location map - Exhibit A, attached).
The property contains approximately 4.76 acres. The Petron's propose to
split off approximately one acre on the east side of the site to build a
single-family residence (see Exhibit B, attached).
The property is currently zoned R-1C and is occupied by Mrs. Saleme's home.
Surrounding development and zoning are as follows:
north and east:
south and west:
Amesbury and Amesbury West, zoned P.U.D.
single-family residential, zoned R-1C
The property is bounded on the north by the rignt-of-way of Sunset Lane and
on the south by the right-of-way of Orchard Lane. Neitherr.o.w. has been
improved as a public street.
ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION
The applicant's propose to divide the 4.8 acre site into two lots. Lot 1
will be the new lot on which they would like to build. Lot 2 will contain
the existing Saleme residence. Since Lot 2 has potential for further de-
velopment, it has been requested that the applicants provide a resubdivision
sketch showing how the proposed division allows for future development of
the site. Resubdivision of Lot 2 is illustrated on Exhibit C.

PLANNER'S RECO~MENOATION
PETRON, JACK
SIMPLE SUBDIVISION
27 JUNE 1985
page two
Lot 1 This is the lot on which the Petron's propose to build their house.
Although it is twice as large as the R-1C district requires, it does not
comply with the width requirement for that district. The lot is only
83 fe-et .~i=e at t::e b:;ild:.~g li::e. C~e h:.::::::-e:: :e-a: is :-e:;,:.::.=e.=.. G:~.:e::
the size of the site, there is no reason whv it can not cornolv with zonin\:t
standards. As shown on Exhibit B the lot line should be mo~e~ eastward t;
comply with the Ordinance.
Although Orchard Lane extends across the south side of the site, the appli-
cant's propose to share the existing driveway serving the Saleme residence.
This is not viewed as a problem.
It is unclear as to how the new lot will be served by sanitary sewer. If
the applicant proposes to tap into the existing sewer service for the Saleme
residence, approval should be subject t~ the City Enginee='s review and
recommendation.
Lot 2 The applicant's have stated that neither they nor Mrs. Saleme have
any intention of developing the easterly 3.8 acres for many years. Never-
theless the City must assure itself that by approving a piecemeal type of
subdivision, the remaining property can still be developed. For this reason,
the resubdivision sketch should be evaluated similar to a preliminary plat.
The resubdivision plan proposes six lots including the one with the Saleme
residence on it. The plan is viewed "as being somewhat inefficient in terms
of future streets and utility service. Four of the lots require access
form Sunset Lane. The lot labeled "0", together-with the Saleme residence
and the Petronls lot will require the use of Orchard Lane. Also, Lot B
does not comply with the width requirements of the R-1C district. Lot E,
due to shallowness and the existing wetland on the site is not buildabl
At such time as the property develops, it would be advisable to consider
a single access from Orchard Lane (see Exhibit D). While it would require
a longer cul-de-sac street, street and utility costs would be less than if
access is provided form two different directions.
For purposes of this report it is sufficient to know that the creation of
the new lot will not interfere with the future development of the property.
As in past similar requests the City should specify that any further
division of the site must be for the entire site. Individual lots should
not be allowed to be broken off on a piecemeal basis.
Based on the preceding analysis, it is recommended that the simple sub-
division be approved subject to the following:
1. Lot 1 should comply with the 100 foot lot width requirement of the
R-1C district.

2. Sanitarv se~er service for Let 1 shall be 5~bject to th~ review a~~

3. The City should keep the alternate resubdivision sketch shown on
cxnibic D as a guide for the future development of Lot 2.
4. Future platting of Lot 2 should include the entire site. Individual
lots should not be split off one at a time.
5. The applicant's must pay one park dedication fee of $500 for the new
lot. (Credit is given for the lot with the house on it).

MEMO

MAYOR AND COUNCILMEMBERS
FROM:
ALAN ROLEK
DATE:
OCTOBER 19, 1989
RE:
RESULTS OF DISCUSSION OF FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNI'S WI'IH
FINANCIAL ADVISORY BOARD; IMPLEMENl'ATION OF FLEXIBLE SPENDING
ACCOUNT PLANS AS ALLOWED BY INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SEC. 125 & 129
FOR CITY EMPLOYEES
Larry Whittaker presented a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) plan for city
employees for Council consideration at the September 11 Council meeting.
This plan would allow an employee to pay medical and dental insurance
premiums, and medical and dependent care expenses with pre-tax dollars
through payroll deductions. The City Council directed the staff to meet
with the Financial Advisory Board and discuss the merits and possible
pitfalls of this plan. Kristi Stover and I met with members of the FAB on
October 4 to discuss this issue. After a thorough discussion, the members
of the FAB endorsed the implementation of a FSA plan for employees of the
City. Therefore, it is requested the City Council approve the
implementation of this plan to begin on January 1, 1990.
In their discussion, the FAB considered the mer its and pitfalls of this
plan. The merits of the plan were found to be that the employees would
realize greater take-home pay and a reduction in income taxes, and that
the City would also realize a tax savings as well as create good will with
its employees. The pitfalls are that the employees could possibly lose
money which is put into their FSA and is not used during the plan year,
and the City has the potential to lose money through early use of the plan
by an employee who terminates before the end of the plan year. These
pitfalls could be minimized by writing safeguards into the plan document
to limit the amount an employee could put into his FSA and which require a
terminating employee to continue in the plan un til the end of the plan
year. Some concern was also expressed regarding the cost to the City to
administer this plan. Bob Snyder, a member of the FAB who is employed in
this field, assured the FAB that the cost and time element for
administering the plan for a group of this size would be minimal. Bob
also presented a plan document which he had prepared for the City,
eliminating the need to use an outside source for this purpose.
The plan is divided into three levels of participation, each of which is
voluntary to each individual employee. These levels are:

FSA MEMO
OCTOBER 19. 1989
1. Payment of the portion of employer provided medical. dental. life
& disability insurance premiums payable by employees with payroll
deductions taken from gross earnings before taxes are calculated.
2. Payment or an amount of gross earnings pre-elected by an employee
into a health care reimbursement account which could be drawn on
by the employee to pay for out-of-pocket medical or dental
expenses. These deductions would be taken from gross earnings
before taxes are calculated. The employee could draw only for
expenses incurred and could not exceed the pre-elected amount.
3. Payment of an amount of gross earnings pre-elected by an employee
into a dependent care reimbursement account which could be drawn
on by the employee to pay for dependent care expenses. These
deductions would be taken from&gross earnings before taxes are
calculated. The employee could draw only for expenses incurred
and could not exceed the pre-elected amount.
In order to limit the City's liability under this plan. the amount of
money which may be put into a medical reimbursement account by a
participating employee should be limited to $1.000 for the plan year.
This would allow a large enough account for an employee who would
experience large medical expenses (ie: orthodontic work; braces) without
putting the City at gross risk. Also. a terminating employee who is
participating in this plan would be required to continue in the plan
through the end of that plan year. This could be insured through a
payroll deduction for the remainder of the annual contribution from the
final pay check. The statuatory limit of $5.000 for dependent care
accounts presents no liability to the City as these expenses are known to
the employee ahead of time and are paid for services received by the
employee on an on-going basis throughout the year.
After thoughtfully considering all aspects of the FSA plan. the FAB
unanimously endorsed the establishment of such a plan by the City. It is
felt that the FSA plan gives great flexibility and benefit in terms of
real dollars to city employees at a low cost to the City. For these
reasons. it is recommend that the City Council establish an FSB plan to be
implemented on January 1. 1990.

ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF FSAS
Section 3
Employee
1) expenses paid with pre-tax
dollars--taxes reduced
- federal income tax
- state, income tax (except
New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Arkansas, and Alabama)
- FICA
2) completely voluntary pro-
gram; provides benefit/
tax flexibility to
employees
3) PERA contributions (for
certain public sector
employers) are not affected
ADVANTAGES
Employer
1) payroll taxes reduced
- FICA
- FUTA
- possibly state unemploy-
ment taxes (varies from
state to state)
- not workers' compensation
2) employer gets float on
salary reduction deposits
until claims are reimbursed
3) helps attract and retain
employees
DISADVANTAGES
Employee
1) "use it or lose it"--for-
feiture of unused amounts
(careful planning and good
communication required)
2) limitations on
ability to change after
start of plan year
Employer
1) employers must reimburse the
full amount of the claim
in the health reimbursement
account (up to the total
annual amount of the contri-
butions elected by the
employee)--employer
may not be fully paid back
if employee terminates
employment or changes family
status prior to the end of
the plan year.
2) modifications to payroll
system required
10
DCA."-
.
Employee
3) could potentially reduce
social security (and perhaps
unemployment compensation
benefits)--typically
negligible impact
.
Employer
3) discrimination tests must
be monitored and met
4) plan documents and admini-
stration required
5) other pay based plans (e.g.,
retirement plan, disability)
would have to be amended to
base benefits on pay before
salary reduction
6) no guarantee that Congress
won't modify or outlaw these
kinds of plans in the future

RE:
Golden Anderson Electric Check Valve
Elevated Water Tower
Enclosed is a copy of the Golden Anderson warranty for the check valve
installed at the Shorewood water tower, which I received from Bruce
Harding of Mooney and Associates.
Please note that the warranty warrants that all parts are "free from
defects in manufacture" for a period of one year. Hr. Harding states he
is not aware of any "valve failure," and he apparently does not believe
any of the parts were "defective" from the manufacturer.
T he warranty also limits recovery to situations where the valve is not
subjected to "conditions of misuse, abuse, or accident." In discussing
the matter with the City engineer, it appears that the manner in which the
valve was used during the temporary period could be interpreted to be a
situation involving "misuse or abuse" rather than equipment failure. The
warranty would not be applicable under these circumstances.

RE: Shoreweed, MN
Water Pumphouse
Golden Anderson Electric Check Valve
A copy of G.A. Industries Inc., Golden Anderson Valve, warranty is enclosed
per your request and letter dated September 25, 1989. The warranty is
described in paragraph G of their standard "Tenns and Conditions of Sales".
In your letter you state that, "this valve apparently failed." I have no
knowledge of this apparent valve failure. I would like to hear more
specifics concerning this.
My records show that the valve was shipped in October, 1987. I recall
being at the pumphouse start-up and also being called to the pumphouse on
at least two other occassions in 1988. I was called there to instruct the
operating personnel, Munitech Company, on the operation of the Golden
Anderson Valves.
It was my understanding that some of the pumphouse system at that time was
temporary and it was giving the operating personnel some trouble. The
electric check valve was always working as expected while I was there.
Because of the temporary system the valve was being cycled, open and close,
every few minutes all day long which would accelerate the wear of the valve
components. The valve has soft goods replaceable parts that may need re-
placing now because of the accelerated wear.
I would like to see our vaJvework properly now and in the future. ,This
valve will provide the city with many years of service for the purpose
intended. Let me know if I can provide any further assistance.
Sincerely,
~.
