THE LONE OAK TREE. ...THE SYMBOL OF STRENGTH AND GROWTH IN OUR COMMUNITY
SUMMER OUTSIDE WATER USE POLICY
The City of Eagan has implemented a Water Use Restriction/Conservation
Policy which will be effective from JUNE 1 TO AUGUST 31, 1989 for all non -es-
sential outside water use. This policy affects all residents obtaining water from the
City of Eagan.
This restriction ALLOWS the sprinkling of lawns /gardens, car washing, etc.,
ON EVEN DAYS ONLY AT EVEN ADDRESSES and ON ODD DAYS ONLY AT
ODD ADDRESSES. The only EXCEPTIONS allowed are for newly placed sod,
seed and landscaping for the first three (3) weeks and for private well users.
411? A special telephone number has been set up to provide the most current infor-
ation regarding the City's water supply and the water use restriction policy.
ease call 454 -1010 for a recorded message or the City's Maintenance Facility at
454 -5220 (7 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Mon. - Fri.) for additional information.
For the following reasons, this conservation measure is necessary this summer
to insure a continued and adequate supply of water for all residents of the City:
• The scheduled reconstruction by Dakota County of Lexington Avenue (Coun-
ty Road 43) will require the reconstruction of 8,600 feet of one of only two
main north -south trunk water lines by the City during the peak summer use
season. The City has invested approximately $43,000 in system modifications
to help minimize the effects of this trunk water main reconstruction project.
• The construction of a 4 million gallon water reservoir at the intersection of Dif-
fley Road and Lexington Avenue will not be completed until the Fall of '89.
This unexpected delay in the completion of this $850,000 facility resulted from
delays in property acquisition from the Federal Housing and Urban Develop-
ment Agency (HUD). This reservoir's capacity is necessary to provide for
peak usage beyond the cumulative capacity of all City wells and to help insure
adequate standby reserves for fire fighting purposes and related safety
measures.
• It is extremely difficult to predict weather and peak use conditions which
could adversely affect the water supply level. In addition, it is almost impos-
sible to notify the entire community regarding emergency water restriction con-
ditions in a timely manner. It is anticipated that the 1989 policy's advance
planning and scheduling will eliminate emergency conditions this summer.
• This conservation measure will help to stabilize our groundwater levels, insur-
ing a dependable source of water supply for our community.
The City of Eagan requests everyone's assistance in helping to maintain an
adequate water supply to meet potential fire demands and necessary pressure
levels throughout the City. Your cooperation in helping to inform your neighbors
about this restriction/conservation measure will be greatly appreciated. Thank you
for your understanding and support!

EAGAN /MENDOTA HEIGHTS
AIRCRAFT CORRIDOR
Many residents and prospective
residents contact the City asking where
aircraft noise impacts can be expected
in Eagan and how serious the impact
may be. As a neighbor of an interna-
tional airport, it would be un-
reasonable to expect no noise impact,
but the City of Eagan is one of the few
communities that has had the oppor-
tunity to plan for noise.
WHAT MAKES THIS ISSUE SO
COMPLEX?
Noise nuisance is subjective. Per-
sonal tolerance varies dramatically.
Many people find some background
noise acceptable, while others want a
very quiet, sound - controlled environ-
ment. At a certain level, everyone
would agree that a noise source is
loud, but most areas of Eagan are not
so severely affected.
In addition, aircraft noise impacts
depend on a variety of factors. Wind
can push aircraft and noise into areas
which typically experience them less.
Hot weather limits the ability of
aircraft to climb efficiently, meaning
the noise source will be closer to the
ground farther from the airport.
Clouds also trap sound waves near the
ground resulting in a rumbling echo on
overcast days. Most significantly, a lot
of these factors coincide just when we
want to enjoy the outdoors during
"open window" season.
BUT IT SEEMS THEY CHANGE
THE FLIGHT TRACKS A LOT
Aircraft do not fly specific routes
overhead. Generally speaking, they
are given headings which direct them
toward a specific navigational aid on
the ground or gate in the sky. This is
often compared with attempting to
cross a river's current in a boat.
Depending upon the strength of the
current, the skill of the pilot and the
point a turn is accomplished or a head-
ing is assumed, the boat may take a
variety of courses to the dock. While
airport neighbors will identify con-
centrations where flights are most like-
ly to occur, aircraft may be found else-
where.
WHAT IS THE "CORRIDOR "?
The area which is intended to
make some sense of all of this uncer-
tainty is the Eagan/Mendota Heights
Corridor. Located along the boundary
AIRCRAFT NOISE CONCERNS
of the two cities, the Corridor is an
area of generally noise - compatible,
commercial and industrial land -uses
which ranges from two and one -half to
three miles wide. Within that area,
noise levels are expected to be high.
New residential construction is
prohibited and most existing residen-
tial areas have commercial comprehen-
sive guide designations.
The Corridor map below depicts
the area in two ways. The bold lines
depict policy contours which the
Metropolitan Council enforces. They
relate to progressively higher levels of
restriction as you get closer to the air-
port. The shading depicts areas of
generally compatible land use which
are commercial or will become so
some day. This does not mean that
noise magically ends outside of these
areas. It does mean that the worst of
the noise impact should be contained
within them.
HOW DOES THE CORRIDOR
RELATE TO OPERATIONS?
In exchange for this area of com-
patible land -use, the Federal Aviation
Administration is supposed to attempt
to keep air traffic within it. When air
commerce was regulated, the airport
handled approximately one -third of
the traffic it does now and the Cor-
ridor was adequate to contain both
aircraft and noise.
Since deregulation, air traffic at
the airport has increased dramatically.
As a consequence, the FAA has begun
to use a much larger portion of the
compatible area for operations. Neigh-
borhoods near the Corridor are receiv-
ing increased impacts because of this
2
broader area of operations and the
higher frequency of flights.
Despite these changes, the FA"
must still direct operations in a control-
led manner. Departures may not turn
south of a line three miles from the
runway end. This is at the ap-
proximate location of Knox Lumber on
Lexington Avenue. At that point,
aircraft heading south and west can be
expected to begin a sweeping turn
which will carry them over parts of
eastern Eagan and Inver Grove Hts.
Arrivals are required to make at
least a four mile final approach begin-
ning around the intersection of Apollo
Road and Mike Collins Drive. Most
aircraft queue up for this approach
over Inver Grove Heights and some as
far away as Hastings.
BUT I SAW PLANES OVER MY
HOUSE AND I'M NOWHERE NEAR
THE CORRIDOR
The Corridor is intended to ab-
sorb the worst of the impacts from the
lowest altitude portions of flights. As
aircraft approach or depart from these
closely controlled procedures, they
may be seen over residential areas
Eagan. The closer you get to the C
ridor, the more frequently these events
may occur. In addition, the Corridor
procedures only apply to jet aircraft,
so propeller planes may be seen al-
most anywhere.
It should be remembered that
many overflights are within the
guidelines set for the Corridor. Many
others are the result of aircraft drifting
south of runway centerline, turning
early from the Corridor or slipping
into a pattern short of the four -mile
final approach.
WHAT DO I DO IF I SEE A PLANE
WHERE IT SHOULDN'T BE?
If you observe a jet aircraft ob-
viously outside the Corridor or if you
are bothered by aircraft noise, regard-
less of the location of the noise source,
note as much as you can about the
aircraft, direction of flight and time of
day and call:
MAC Complaint Line: 726 -9411
Airport Control Tower: 725 -4230

HOW MUCH WATER
DOES MY LAWN
REALLY NEED?
The every other day water use
restriction for June, July and August
has been instituted at this time in
order to insure that all residents have
plenty of water for normal household
use and that there is an adequate emer-
gency supply of water in case of a
major fire in the City of Eagan.
By sprinkling only every other day
and by regulating the amount of sprin-
kling to only that necessary, property
owners can greatly reduce their water
bills, maintain a viable lawn and con-
serve our groundwater and reservoir
supplies.
For those who wish to maintain a
green and healthy lawn, the water use
restriction is not a reason for panic!
In fact, the best method for sprinkling
is to thoroughly water the lawn two or
three times per week.
A less frequent but good soaking
of the lawn will encourage plants to
grow deep and healthy roots. By con-
trast, light and frequent watering will
only encourage the lawn to spread
ots at the surface and subject it to
ore stress during periods of drought.
In the east central portion of Min-
nesota, the amount of evaporation and
use of water by plants during the sum-
mer normally exceeds rainfall by 1 to 3
inches per month. Homeowners who
wish to maintain a green lawn will
need to replace this amount of water
through sprinkling. A good rule of
thumb is to let the sprinkler run for
about half an hour, in each area, two
or three times per week. To better
measure the amount of water being ap-
plied, simply set out a tin can or other
container with uniform sides. Remem-
ber, though, that the amount needed is
only 1 to 3 inches per month under
normal conditions.
During periods of hot and dry
weather, watering two to three times a
week may be required. During
periods of cooler weather or overcast
skies, reduce the watering frequency to
once per week.
Watering flower and vegetable gar -
ens thoroughly two to three times a
eek also results in stronger more
healthy plants because the plants
develop deep root systems.

Recycle
Be part of the solution!
After six weeks of collection, the HERO* program is off to a great
start. The average participation rate has been 50% and the tonnage abated
from the waste stream has been impressive We have our sights on reaching
our solid waste :abatement goals for the year and we are confident we can
succeed with the growing acceptance and participation in the program.
Throughout the past weeks, there have been many positive comments
received regarding the recycling program. But there have also been some
questions asked that may need clarifying for residents. We thought we
would share the questions with you in case you might have similar concerns.
WHAT ABOUT RECYCLING OTHER MATERIALS, I.E., TIN CANS,
CORRUGATED CARDBOARD OR PLASTICS?
The current program is designed to handle materials with acceptable
and easily accessible markets. We do plan to have these other items in-
cluded in the program in the near future. With the acquisition of building
space to house the Dakota County Recyclables :: Collection Center the
program will be able to expand. The facility will be operated by Recycle
Minnesota Resources, the company which runs the drop -off center on Hwy.
13 and Seneca Rd. The Dakota County facility will mainly serve contracted
haulers with large loads from residential pick up programs but will also be
available as a residential redemption drop -off center.
In order to expand material collections, there is 'a need for durable
markets.. In addition, plastics recycling is a problematic material requiring
labor intensive handling and processing. Again, these items are important
to remove from our waste stream and we are Iooking at collection and
processing options for the future. The drop-off center located on Seneca
Rd. will now accept other plastics which include, milk, water and liquor jugs
in addition to the two liter pop bottles;
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR COLLECTION?
Individual refuse haulers are required by licensing regulations: to collect
separated recyclable materials. If there are collection problems, please call
your refuse haulers. If the problem has ` not been corrected efficiently,
please call the Recycling Staff at 454-8100.
A majority of the refuse haulers collecting materials in Eagan use a two
truck system. One vehicle will collect regular waste and another truck will
collect the recyclable material. A few of the haulers have a compartmental-
ized trailer for recyclables which is hooked up to the 'packer" truck used for
regular waste. :Some units are innovative and may not look like a recycling
vehicle or seem to resemble a garbage truck, but they all are designed to
hold recyclable and regular wastes separately. If there is any confusion con-
cerning collection of your materials, please call your refuse: hauler.
HOW DOES THE CASH FOR TRASH WORK?
Each week the City randomly selects an address from the list of homes
that received containers. A . representative:: from the then checks the
specific address on the assigned collection day at 7 am. If the resident has
separated recyclable materials set out by 7 am, there is a winner, $100 dol-
lars is awarded each week. If no winner is chosen,: the money accumulates
each week until a winner is found.

MULTI - FAMILY
RECYCLING
As soon as the residential
program began, residents in multi -unit
dwellings, 5 and above, became very in-
terested in participating. Currently,
the HERO* program is only able to
serve single family to 4 unit dwellings.
We are aware of the interest and
necessity of beginning a recycling
rogram in the larger unit buildings.
ganizing a multi -unit recycling
ogram has many different aspects
that need to be addressed. The time
tables for program development are
greater because each building may
need individual attention to devise a
recycling plan.
At this time we encourage all
multi - family residents to use the recy-
cling drop -off centers around town
during our organization period. We
hope to have the first phases of the
program on line in the next few
months.
Check with your building manager
or Association about recycling oppor-
tunities for your complex, some refuse
haulers are able to begin collection of
recyclable materials.

WASTE
REDUCTION...ANOTHER
IMPORTANT STEP FOR
RESPONSIBLE WASTE
MANAGEMENT
Waste reduction can be ac-
complished, too. Nearly a third of our
solid waste is packaging material, and
1 out of 10 of our grocery dollars pays
for packaging. We buy the package,
and then pay to dispose of it. Try
these ideas to reduce waste:
• Ask the store manager to stock
items in refillable or reusable con-
tainers, or at least in recyclable
containers.
• Buy in larger quantities or bulk
and avoid individually packaged
items.
• Request paper bags at the store,
not plastic bags.
• Avoid using disposable dishware
whenever possible. Use cloth nap-
kins and towels.
• Use cloth diapers or a diaper ser-
vice instead of disposable diapers.
• Donate unwanted items to your
church or synagogue, social ser-
vice agencies or others.
• Share recent magazines and books
with friends, or give them to nurs-
ing homes or other organizations.
• Reuse gift wrap and boxes.
• Avoid junk mail. You can keep
your name from many mailing lists

COMMERCIAL
RECYCLING
We urge all businesses to begin
recycling if it is not already a part of
your operations.
If you arp a tenant in a multi -
tenant building, encourage your
management company to organize recy-
cling service.
White office paper and/or cor-
rugated cardboard recycling would be
an easy and cost- effective place to
start.
Check with your refuse hauler
about recycling services or contact a
business recycling service listed in the
Yellow Pages under Recycling Services.
"OFFICER'S NOTEBOOK"
By Lieutenant John Stevenson
Q. DO THE POLICE REGISTER BIKES?
A. No, the city does not require bike registration. The Police Depart-
ment encourages citizens to mark their bikes (and all their valuables) with
their Operation I.D. number. If you don't have a number yet, stop by the
police station and pick one up. (Monday through Friday - 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.).
Also, record the serial number and store it in a safe place
A reminder to bike riders: A bicycle is a vehicle; and on a public road, it
is subject to the same rules as a car would be You can be ticketed for viola-
tions. Laws that are most violated include stop sign violations, riding on the
wrong side of the road and giving someone a ride on the handlebars. The
laws are designed for your safety as well as the safety of others.
Q. I JUST BOUGHT AN OLD CAR TO FIX UP. ARE THERE ANY
REGULATIONS CONCERNING OLD CARS?
A. Yes, Basically, until the car is in working order and is registered, you
will have to keep it inside of a building, such as your garage. This regulation
also applies to old car parts and other types of "junk", such as household fur-
nishings and appliances. Another rule to keep in mind is the regulation that
prohibits "working on the car on the street.
Q. I AM. CONCERNED ABOUT THE NUMBER OF . CHILDREN
PLAYING IN THE STREET. WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS?
A. All citizens have a right to use the public streets, but for the safety of
all, a few simple rules should be followed.
Parents should remind their children that the streets are not playgrounds
and they should only walk near the left hand curb. A child is no match for a
moving car. People should learn the rules for safe biking and follow them.
Q. CAN I RIDE MY MOPED ON THE BIKE TRAILS?
A. No. Mopeds (or motorized bicycles) are considered motor vehicles
and like all motor vehicles, including cars, trucks, motorcycles and A.T.
Cycles, may only be driven on (1) roads (when properly registered), and (2)
on private property with, and only with, the landowner's permission.
Q. WHAT IS THE CURFEW LAW?
A. The curfew is in effect from 10 p.m. until 5 a.m. for persons under 16
years old. If you are 16 or 17 years old, you should be home by midnight.
There are a few exceptions, such as school, church or community sponsored
events or work. Remember, it is also a violation for a parent to allow their
child to be in violation of the curfew ordinance.
Q. OUR CHURCH GROUP WOULD LIKE A POLICE OFFICER TO
SPEAK AT ONE OF OUR MEETINGS. HOW CAN THIS BE ARRANGED?
A. Just call us. We have officers who speak on a variety of subjects, such
as crime prevention, child abuse, bike safety, and many others. Also, tours of
the Police Department can be arranged. Call 454 -3900.
Summertime activities bring many alcohol related incidents to the atten-
tion of the Police Department. The new drunk driving laws are very tough
and we strictly enforce them. Noisy parties are another source of complaints.
A person may not allow a gathering to become a disturbance to the neighbor-
hood. The sale, by any method, of alcohol is prohibited by anyone, under any
circumstance, unless they have a license issued by the City. The possession or
consumption by persons under age 21 is prohibited. The furnishing of al-
coholic beverages to minors by an adult can bring a fine of up to $3,000
and/or a jail term. Possession of, or consumption from, any unsealed con-
tainer (known as an open bottle, but including glasses or cups) is prohibited
in any vehicle or in any public area.

CREATURE CORNER
RESPONSIBILITIES FOR PET
OWNERS
• Many calls are received this time
of year regarding pets which are not
properly attended or which defecate in
parks or on property not belonging to
the pet's owner. The following rules
are found in the Eagan City Code:
Section 10.11 City Code: Dog &
Cat Regulation
Subd. 2 Owners of dogs or cats
cannot permit their animals to run at
large. The owner must have the dog
on a durable leash, fully secured, on
the owner's premises. Or, the dog can
be on a leash or trained and under the
command of accompanying person.
Cats are considered to be at large if
they are not on the owner's property.
Subd. 3 All dogs, over six months
of age, must be licensed and they must
wear a collar and have a tag firmly at-
tached.
Subd. 10 Dogs and cats cannot be
permitted to disturb the peace and
quiet of the neighborhood by barking,
howling, whining, or making any other
lo ud or unusual noises.
Subd. 11 It is unlawful to own or
keep a dog or cat which is dangerous
to persons or property.
Subd. 13 It is unlawful for the
owner of any dog or cat to fail to
prevent his dog or cat from defecating
in or upon public property or the
premises of another. Pet owners are
responsible for cleaning up after their
dogs and cats should an accident occur.
Further, the owner cannot permit
solid waste of a dog or cat to accumu-
late on his premises for more than 24
hours.
These are common courtesy rules.
They also serve to protect the health
and safety of our residents.

1989 is on the librarian. - The adopted slogan encourages the public to "Ask a
professional - Ask a librarian." Librarians are the best people to ask for help

you They know information sources both inside and outside of the library
and can easily and quickly put the user in touch with those.. sources. When
you become acquainted with the library information staff, you will agree that
professional librarians are "user friendly" person whose bright spot in the day
is when a difficult question is answered, a complex request is located, or
obscure information is clarified and resolved.:

BLOCK PARTIES
Many residents like to have block
parties during the summer months.
The city has some suggestions to make
them fun, but safe, occasions.
The party must be held on
homeowners' lawns. There cannot be
blockading of the street or cul -de -sac -
even if every single neighbor is attend-
ing. The roadway must be clear in the
event emergency vehicles are needed.
Noisy parties that extend beyond
your block might irritate neighboring
residents. We suggest you let it be
known there will be a block party and
that you will try to keep the noise
down. If the police are called to en-
force City Code Section 1031, "Noisy
Parties or Gatherings," they may have
to shut down your party.
The City encourages block parte
as a good opportunity for families
get better acquainted. By following
common sense rules, everyone can
have a good time.
