Mr. VonDeLinde asked Police Chief Pat Geagan for a brief presentation and introduction of those Park Rangers
in attendance.
Chief Geagan said he was very impressed by the number of hours donated by these young people. He
said it approached the equivalent of three full-time employees. The Chief said the community should be very
thankful for the work performed by these young people. He then recognized Mr. Kevin Lazarchic for his recent
achievement of being selected Law Enforcement Explorer of the Year for the Boy Scouts of America's
Indianhead Council.
The Explorers then introduced themselves and they were: Chris Ericson, a second year student at Inver
Hills Community College; Jeff Albee, a sophomore at Eagan High School; Rob Merrill, a sophomore at Inver
Hills Community College; Kevin Lazarchic, who has his Law Enforcement degree; Laura Hampton, a student

PUB HEART OS
VACATION/WINDTREE 3RD ADDITION
Mayor Egan introduced this item as a vacation of a portion of drainage and utility easement (Lot 6,
Block 1, Windtree 3rd Addition). City Administrator Hedges said that on September 4, 1990, the City Council
had considered and denied a side yard setback variance for this parcel. He said that during the application
process, it was discovered that the existing house was inadvertently located within the common lot line drainage
and utility easement on the east side of the parcel. He said that the property owner had subsequently submitted
a petition requesting the vacation of a portion of the side lot line drainage and utility easement. No objection
has been received to this application. Mayor Egan then asked if anyone was present to address the issue. None
was.
McCrea moved, Gustafson seconded a motion to close the public hearing and approve the vacation of
a portion of the side lot line drainage and utility easement as described as Lot 6, Block 1, Windtree 3rd Addition.
Aye: 5 Nay. 0

REQUEST TO WAIVE FEES /SANITARY SEWER REQUIREMENT
TRINITY LONE OAK CHURCH
After introduction by Mayor Egan, the City Administrator said this item had been before the City
Council at the last regular meeting on December 4. He said at that time, the City Council had questioned the
Page 6 /EAGAN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
December 18, 1990
precedence and previous actions with respect to similar uses. Those questions were researched and were part
of the packet information included for Council's review. Mr. Hedges said that the Trinity Lone Oak Church had
asked for a building permit for remodeling, but with the application the City had asked that the property be
platted.
Mr. Martin Schuetze, representing Trinity Lone Oak Church, said there were two things they wished
to address with the Council: 1) the waiver of fees and 2) the sanitary sewer line extension. He said the church
had reviewed a letter from the Director of Public Works regarding a possible solution to the sanitary sewer issue.
Mr. Schuetze said the church had no problem with the suggested solution. Mr. Schuetze said he had met with
the adjoining property owner, Mr. John Kolb, and Mr. Kolb was in no hurry to hook up to the sanitary sewer
system. He said this was especially true since he has a number of barns and garages on his property and any
future extension through his property could be disruptive.
Director of Public Works Colbert said the property south of Trinity Lone Oak Church could be served
from two different directions. He said there was no immediate need to hook up to this utility and the issue could
be deferred to a later date. He said the City would ask, however, that the church provide an easement for the
installation of a future utility line to this property. Mr. Colbert said that the proposed agreement used for Trinity
Lone Oak Church would be similar to an agreement developed with the Advent Church and would indicate that
if the sewer had to be installed at a later date through the Trinity Lone Oak property, the easement would have
been dedicated as a condition of the plat. He said that the cost of the sanitary sewer could then be spread as
an assessment against the property to minimize the immediate financial impact to the church.
Mayor Egan noted that the City had frequently waived the parkland dedication fee. He said the
agreement outlined by Director of Public Works Colbert seemed to be a reasonable solution considering there
was a precedence for it and the fact that Trinity Lone Oak Church was one of the oldest existing facilities in the
City.
Councilmember Wachter said that he agreed it was an appropriate handling of this item as it was similar
to what had been done for other churches.
Wachter moved, McCrea seconded a motion: 1) to approve a request from Trinity Lone Oak Church
to waive the park dedication fee and the water quality fee and 2) to approve a waiver of Condition 6 of the
preliminary plat relative to extension of the sanitary sewer service provided such service is guaranteed through
the dedication of a utility easement.
Councilmember Pawlenty acknowledged that the sanitary sewer issue appeared to be resolved and the
park dedication fee waived but questioned whether the other fees requested were also waived. Councilmember
Gustafson said he understood that the park fee was waived, the sanitary sewer line deferred with a stipulation
that an agreement would be drafted and payment of the extension would be made at the appropriate time and
that all other fees would be paid.
Martin Schuetze disagreed saying that in addition to those items addressed, the church was still
contesting the trail dedication fee, the water quality fee and the final plat escrow. Councilmember Pawlenty said
that the church had attempted to make the case that since they were not a subdivider, they should be exempt
from all development fees. He asked Director of Community Development Runkle if, for instance, the Trail
Dedication ordinance applied only to subdivisions. Mr. Runkle said that the Trail Dedication policy had only
come on line in the last six months and had been applied to subdivisions on a per lot basis. The
Councilmember then asked City Attorney Sheldon the definition of a "subdivider." Mr. Sheldon said it was a
generic term for a person who plats property.
Page 7/EAGAN CITY COUNCIL MINUTTES
December 18, 1990
Mr. Schuetze said that the fees being charged the Trinity Lone Oak Church are just over S16,000. He
said they were not contesting all of the fees but were opposed to paying the trail dedication fee, the water quality
fee and the final plat escrow. Mr. Schuetze said to put the fees in perspective, the fees would be $16,000 even
if the church was building a S50,000 addition. He said that a subdivider could pass the costs along to the buyer
and a corporation could pass these costs on to the consumer through higher prices or receive a deduction in the
fees through depreciation. He said that the church is exempt from most taxes and he contended the fees that
they were contesting are user fees or fees that are like a "tax In addition, Mr. Schuetze said the church had
no need for a trail system on their property. He said the church was requesting a waiver of these fees because:
1) there was strong public policy and support of the waiver, 2) Trinity Lone Oak Church is not a subdivider and
3) the substantial amount of money being spent on the remodelling in order to retain its historic flavor.
Councilmember Wachter suggested the possibility of waiving the water quality fee because it was
instituted after the initial application by Trinity Lone Oak Church. Councilmember McCrea said that she would
support that action but was concerned that any other non profit organization be treated accordingly as she
wanted all public policy to be applied equitably. Councilmember Wachter said his reasoning for the waiver was
only one of the timing of the application.
In response to Mr. Schuetze's questioning the justification for such fees, Mayor Eagan said there were
a number of charges that the City had to be able to justify and said he believed the City was very well reasoned
in that process. As regards the trail dedication fee, Mayor Egan said it was the City's determination that the
church and the school campus would have use for trails on the property. He said the City had to be reasonable
but it also had to be consistent.
For Council's consideration, Councilmember Pawlenty said he had been contacted by a member of
Trinity Lone Oak Church who said they spoke on behalf of eight other members. The person who contacted
Councilmember Pawlenty wished to remain anonymous but it was their opinion that the church should not be
asking for a waiver of the fees but should pay its fair share.
City Administrator Hedges said the point had been made in the past that fees such as those being
discussed were actually a "tax" for service. He said it was, however, an expansion of an existing system and no
matter what the service, it placed an additional burden on that system. Additionally, City Administrator Hedges
said that if Trinity Lone Oak has cash flow problems, they may wish to consider spreading the fees as an
assessment over a period of time.
Councilmember Gustafson then asked the City Attorney if the assessment of these fees could be
interpreted as the levying of taxes against a church? City Attorney said that the charges are absolutely legitimate
based on Minnesota State Statutes which refer to the subdivision regulations that the City has established in
connection with State law. He said these fees are not "taxes" but in fact charges that supplement the system and
provide for those items. He said the City would have no difficulty in justifying these fees. Councilmember
Gustafson then said that it had been suggested that the City consider waiving the water quality fee because
adoption of the fee may have come after Trinity Lone Oak Church's application. The Councilmember said that
if this was done, all other applicants should receive the same consideration. He then asked staff how many
others could be waived for the same reason? Director of Community Development Runkle said that the City
looks at these fees at the time of final plat when they are typically calculated and charged. He said if staff knows
that an ordinance is coming in or to be changed, they inform the applicant of the potential change. The
Councilmember said then anything in effect before final plat would normally be charged with the application.
Mr. Runkle said there was one exception having to do with preliminary plat procedures that does not allow new
conditions to be imposed after the preliminary plat was approved. He said if a fee were instituted after a
preliminary plat was approved, it could not be added as a condition. Councilmember Gustafson then asked the
applicant if they were subdividing their property or had applied only for a building permit. Martin Schuetze said
that they had applied for a building permit and were informed at that time that they would have to have the
Page 8/EAGAN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
December 18, 1990
property platted. He said because they platted the property they became subdividers and subject to the
respective fees.
In answer to a question from Mayor Egan, Councilmember Wachter said his motion had included a
waiver of the water quality fees. Director of Public Works Colbert, asking for clarification, said if the motion
passed, it was his understanding that it would require a special agreement for the future sanitary sewer
installation, the dedication of an easement over the property, and a trail dedication fee but would waive the park
dedication and water quality fees. Councilmember Wachter said that it was an accurate clarification of his
motion. Mr. Colbert then said the agreement would become an exhibit to the development agreement and
become a recordable document.
Councilmember McCrea said that if waiver of the water quality fee was to be part of the motion, she
would withdraw her second. She said she was doing so because she was concerned about the equitable
implementation of the fees. Because he spoke in favor of the motion, Mayor Egan said he would second it.
Wachter moved, Egan seconded a motion: 1) to approve a request from Trinity Lone Oak Church to
waive the park dedication fee and the water quality fee and 2) to approve a waiver of Condition 6 of the
preliminary plat relative to extension of the sanitary sewer service provided such service is guaranteed through
the dedication of a utility easement.
Mr. Eldon Morrison, the architect for Trinity Lone Oak Church said that he questioned the necessity
of a final plat. Director of Community Development Runkle said that it has been a policy of the City with
expansions and remodellings to use that opportunity to update the legal description as well as bring the property
up to current development standards.
Councilmember Pawlenty said he agreed with much that had been said, however, he too was concerned
about the consistency of applying the water quality fee. He said the water quality fee was instituted to protect
water quality by attempting to deal with the runoff from buildings or parking lots in the City. He said that
rationale would apply to church buildings and parking lots as well as any other type. Councilmember Pawlenty
said that he respected the viewpoint that this was one of Eagan's oldest landmarks, however, on balance, he
would oppose the motion as it was currently structured. Mayor Egan then called the vote.
Aye: 2 Nay: 3 (Gustafson, McCrea, Pawlenty)
Gustafson moved, McCrea seconded a motion: 1) to approve a request from Trinity Lone Oak Church
to waive the park dedication fee, 2) to approve a waiver of Condition 6 of the preliminary plat relative to
extension of the sanitary sewer service provided such service is guaranteed through the dedication of a utility
easement and 3) that all other fees shall be paid.
Councilmember McCrea said that she would consider rebating a portion of the water quality fee to
Trinity Lone Oak Church if the Council studied the issue regarding the equitable handling of the fee.
Aye: 5, Nay. 0
COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN AMENDMENT /REZONING
MULTI FAMILY RESIDENTIAL LAND STUDY, AREA D
Mayor Egan introduced this item as a comprehensive guide plan amendment, City of Eagan, Area D,
multi family residential land study, to change the land use designation of approximately nine acres from D -III
mixed residential (6 12 units per acre) to D -I single family residential (0 3 units per acre) and the rezoning
Page 9/EAGAN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
December 18, 1990
of approximately nine acres from R -3 townhouse residential to R -1 single family residential for property located
west of I -35E and south of Lemay Lake in the northwest and southwest quarters of Section 10. City
Administrator Hedges said that this item was part of the comprehensive R-4 study. He said a public hearing
was held June 26, by the Advisory Planning Commission and then sent to the City Councillor their September
4,1990 meeting. Mr. Hedges said a number of questions were raised and legal clarification was requested from
the City Attorney. The Advisory Planning Commission again reviewed the issue and it was now before the City
Council for action. Mr. Hedges said that a legal interpretation of the issues involved were included in a memo
prepared by Mike Dougherty of the City Attorney's office.
Mr. John Klein spoke on behalf of Area D property owners, Karl Olson and Dick Berger. He said the
present zoning was a legitimate and proper use of the property. Mr. Klein said that it was Mr. Dougherty's
interpretation that if the zoning was taken from this property, then compensation had to be given to the property
owners in return. Mr. Klein went on to say that a number of agreements had been made and the City was
responsible for upholding their end of the bargain by reaffirming the existing zoning.
Councilmember Gustafson said the present zoning was R -3 and R-4 for the property and asked Mr.
Klein if the property owners were open to making all of the property R -3. Mr. Klein said that there was no plan
to bring in a lower zoning. He said the future developer of the property would in all probability build all
townhouses. He said that the demand for higher density development has declined, however, he had seen
demands change in the City before.
In answer to a question from Mayor Egan, City Attorney Sheldon said there was no conditional zoning
in the State of Minnesota that would require conditions as a part of the zoning. Mayor Egan said in other words,
the City had exacted something without having the right to request it. He then asked the City Attorney if the
City was satisfied with the interpretation of the events and Mr. Sheldon said the City had no reason to dispute
them.
Wachter moved, Gustafson seconded, a motion to withdraw a comprehensive guide plan amendment
for Area D, City of Eagan, multi- family residential land study changing the land use designation of approximately
nine acres from D -III mixed residential (6 12 units per acre) to D -I single family residential (0 3 units per
acre) and to withdraw a rezoning of approximately nine acres from R -3 townhouse residential and R-4 multiple
residential to R -1 single family residential as presented for property located west of I -35E and south of Lemay
Lake in the northwest and southwest quarters of section 10. Aye: 5, Nay: 0.
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT /SAFETY KLEEN /OUTDOOR STORAGE
Mayor Egan introduced this item as a conditional use permit for Safety Kleen to allow outdoor storage
in a light industrial district on Lots 3 and 4, Block 1, Sibley Terminal Industrial Park located in the southeast
quarter of Section 8. He said it was his understanding that the item was to be continued.
Pawlenty moved, McCrea seconded a motion to continue the conditional use application for Safety Kleen
to the January 3, 1991 regular City Council meeting. Aye: 5, Nay. 0.
REIMBURSEMENT REQUEST/VARIANCE FEES /BRIAN BEBEL
Mayor Egan introduced this item as a request for a refund of variance fee for Brian Bebel for a 30'
variance to the 50' shoreline setback on Lot 42, Block 1, Duckwood Estates, northeast quarter of Section 15.
City Administrator Hedges said that a request had been received from Mr. Brian Bebel for reimbursement of
his variance application fee relative to a variance application which was considered and denied by the City
Council at its May 17, 1990 meeting. Mr. Hedges said that Mr. Bebel was informed that the Council would be
willing to consider a variance for a specific house plan without submission of additional fees, but since Mr. Bebel
Page 10/EAGAN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
December 18, 1990
does not have an interested prospect for the property at this time, he would prefer that the application fee be
refunded. For Council's information, City Administrator Hedges said the City does incur expenses with
applications such as this for publication and preparation.
Mr. Bebel said that he had sent the City a letter outlining the background and justification for his
request for a refund. He said he understood that the City does incur expenses with these applications, but said
if he had received proper information at the beginning, he would not have pursued the variance. He said if staff
had properly informed him of the way to pursue his variance, his request would have been successful; however,
he acted on the information he was given. Mr. Bebel said that initial comments by the City Council at the May
17 meeting, indicated immediately that the application would not be approved. He said he only needed a
variance of 3 or 4 feet but was told by staff to go for 30 feet because you always ask for more than you need."
He said he was never told to talk to his neighbors and would have done so and explained his request if he had
been properly informed.
Councilmember McCrea said she was not in support of Mr. Bebel's request for refund because staff had
already spent a great deal of time on this application. The Councilmember said she would, however, consider
a partial waiver if Mr. Bebel came in with another application.
Mayor Egan said if procedures were miscommunicated to Mr. Bebel, then he apologized. He said that
Bebel's application should have included at least a footprint of the house that was intended to be built on the
property. As it was, Mayor Egan indicated that two neighbors had opposed Mr. Bebel's variance in addition to
opposition from the DNR. Mayor Egan said the Council acted prudentary and the minutes indicate that if Mr.
Bebel came back with a more complete request, the City Council would waive any additional fees.
Wachter moved, McCrea seconded a motion to deny a request for reimbursement of a variance
application fee from Mr. Brian Bebel.
Aye: 5 Nay: 0
PRELIMINARY PLAT EXTENSION /STRYKER ADDITION
Mayor Egan introduced this item as a preliminary plat extension for the Stryker Addition, located along
Beau De Rue Drive and Rahn Road in the northeast quarter of Section 19.
Gustafson moved, McCrea seconded a motion to approve a one year preliminary plat extension for the
Stryker Addition location on Beau De Rue Drive and Rahn Road in the northeast quarter of Section 19 subject
to the plat conditions as modified:
1. All applicable standard plat conditions shall be adhere to.
2. A survey of the residual unplatted area shall be submitted with the final plat submission for the

Aye: S Nay: 0
PRELIMINARY PLAT /CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
CLIFF LAKE CENTER 2ND ADDITION
Mayor Egan introduced this item as a preliminary platfor the Cliff Lake Center 2nd Addition/RHC
Associates Joint Venture I, consisting of one lot on approximately 1.2 previously zoned CSC (Community
Shopping Center) acres within the Eagan Hills West Planned Development, and a conditional use permit to allow
a bank with drive -thru tellers located along Cliff Lake Drive in the southwest quarter of Section 29. City
Administrator Hedges said that this item was first considered by the Advisory Planning Commission at their
October 23, 1990 meeting and they had recommended denial. The City Council considered the request at their
November 20 meeting and a number of issues were raised regarding drive -thru lanes, parking stalls, impervious
surface and a pylon sign. He said staff has worked with the developer and resolved these issues.
Director of Community Development Runkle wished to point out that the issue of the pylon sign had
resulted in RHC Associates submitting an application for a pylon sign to be processed at another meeting. Mr.
Runkle said that agreement had been reached on all other issues relating to this application.
Councilmember Gustafson asked the Director of Community Development what the dimensions were
of the parking stalls. Mr. Runkle said they had all been increased to 10 foot widths. In addition, Mr. Runkle
said the bank had agreed to a maximum of five drive -thru lanes, including the ATM lane and six parking stalls
near the exit area were proposed to be eliminated. He said these changes would in turn reduce the impervious
surface for the project from 58 percent to 52.05 percent. He said this was essentially a much better plan.
Councilmember McCrea then asked why there were no fees included for water quality with the
preliminary plat and asked how the developer was fulfilling that obligation. Director of Public Works Colbert
said that a pond had been constructed with an earlier phase of the development to handle the entire ultimate
runoff from the property. Mr. Colbert said there were three ways to satisfy water quality fee requirements and
that was through land dedication, cash dedication or a combination of the two. Mr. Colbert said that the Cliff
Lake Center had constructed a pond which was more than adequate to handle 100 percent of the runoff from
this development. Councilmember McCrea asked if the developer would pay a quarterly fee and Mr. Colbert
said as user fees only.
Wachter moved, McCrea seconded a motion to approve a preliminary plat for Cliff Lake Center 2nd
Addition /RHC Associates Joint Venture I, consisting of one lot on approximately 1.2 previously zoned CSC
(Community Shopping Center) acres within the Eagan Hills West Planned Development subject to the following
conditions as modified:
1. These standard conditions of plat approval as adopted by Council action on July 10, 1990 shall
be complied with: Al, B1, C1, C2, C4, Dl, El, Fl, and H1.

Councilmember Gustafson wished to make a comment regarding "shoe horning The Councilmember
said he was familiar with this development and while it was smaller, his only concern would be with other new
developments wishing to be placed in a small area. Mayor Egan said it was important to understand that the
changes had substantially reduced the intensity of the development. He said there has been a reduction in
impervious surface, drive -thru lanes, and he was far less concerned than when the item was before the Advisory
Planning Commission.
Gustafson moved, Egan seconded a motion to approve a conditional use permit to allow a bank with
drive -thru tellers located along Cliff Lake Drive in the southwest quarter of Section 29. Aye: 5 Nay. 0
(During the City Council break after the conclusion of Old Business, a petition was received from the
residents of the Donnywood neighborhood regarding their agreement with a Comprehensive Guide Plan
Amendment for Area D of the Multifamily Residential Study. It was not formally presented during the
discussion of this item at the meeting.)
1991 CIGARETTE LICENSE RENEWALS
After introduction by Mayor Egan, City Administrator Hedges said this item was for the consideration
of the renewal of the 1991 cigarette licenses. He said because work sessions have had such heavy agendas,
consideration of restrictions on vending machine sales of cigarettes had been continued. However, Mr. Hedges
said that staff was leaning toward renewal of the present cigarette licenses and a study of the issue.
Councilmember Pawlenty expressed a willingness to consider restrictions on the availability of tobacco
to minors but because the agenda item was not properly noticed for that type of action, he was hesitant to take
such action at this time. Councilmember Wachter said he was not in favor of vending machine sales of cigarettes
and said a concerted effort should be made to place this subject on a special City Council agenda.
Councilmember Gustafson said he was willing to consider approving the 1991 renewals and then devising an
action plan sometime during 1991 to deal with the subject or delaying approval of the renewals with discussion
Page 13/EAGAN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
December 18, 1990
of policy at a January workshop and action at a February Council meeting. The Councilmember said he was
not willing to ban cigarette vending machines from all establishments at this time, because it would require
overhead racks for over the counter sales. He said the renewals could be approved for six months, thus allowing
the City Council to study the issue.
Councilmember McCrea said the issue merited a lot of discussion. She suggested the Council approve
those licenses ready for renewal with a Letter to the applicants telling them the City was studying the entire issue
of availability of cigarettes to minors. Mayor Egan asked the City Attorney if the Council delayed approval of
the renewals in order to discuss policy at a January workshop whether the applicants would be operating without
a license. City Attorney Sheldon said the licenses require an annual renewaL He said it was an ordinance that
could be amended without a public hearing at any time. The City Attorney said it would not be appropriate to
just allow the licenses to expire without an extension or without withdrawing the ordinance. When asked by
Mayor Egan how it could best be handled, City Attorney Sheldon suggested the existing licenses be extended
to a date in the future. Councilmember Gustafson asked if the 1991 license renewals could be granted for six
months. City Attorney Sheldon said the ordinance could be changed granting six month approval.
Councilmember Pawlenty asked why the licenses couldn't be issued and then rescinded. City Attorney Sheldon
said issuing the licenses for an entire year and then rescinding them could cause difficulty in the future.
McCrea moved, Wachter seconded a motion to approve the 1991 cigarette license renewals as presented
on December 18, 1990 with expiration to occur July 1, 1991 with a letter being sent to each of the license holders
informing them that the issue of the vending machine sale of cigarettes would be studied in 1991. Aye: 5 Nay:

1991 PARK AND TRAIL DEDICATION
Mayor Egan introduced this item as the 1991 park dedication and trail dedication requirements. City
Administrator Hedges said that Dorothy Peterson, Recreation Supervisor; and Ken Vraa, Director of Parks and
Recreation; were present to answer any questions.
Councilmember Wachter said that the fees for homes were becoming so expensive that it was his
recommendation that the single family fees be held to a maximum of $700. Mr. Vraa said that it had been an
item of debate at the Advisory Parks Recreation meeting and the 3 1/2 percent increase had been a
compromise.
Wachter moved, McCrea seconded a motion to approve the Advisory Parks Recreation Commission
recommendations for park and trail dedications for 1991 as follows:
1. Trails: Fees for 1991 remain the same as 1990.
2. Commercial /Industrial: Fees for 1991 remain the same as 1990.
3. Residential: Single Family $700

1991 PARKS RECREATION FEES CHARGES
Mayor Egan introduced this item as 1991 fees and charges for Parks Recreation. Director of Parks
Recreation Vraa said the recommendations before the Council were those recommendations reached at the
last Advisory Parks Recreation Commission meeting. Mr. Vraa said some changes had not been made in the

fees for some time. He said there had been no percentage of increase across the board and each fee had been
looked at individually.
Councilmember Gustafson said he had no problem with the increases unless they would somehow reduce
the requests for use. He said he would appreciate feedback from the Parks Recreation Department during
the year regarding these increased fees. Director of Parks Recreation Vraa said it was the wish of the
Advisory Parks Recreation Commission that the fees not reach the point where groups would not be able to
use the facilities.
Gustafson moved, Wachter seconded a motion to approve the recommended fees and charges for the
City of Eagan's parks facilities and programs as presented. Aye: 5 Nay. 0
PRELIMINARY PLAT /DIFFLEY COMMONS
ROTTLUND HOMES
Mayor Egan introduced this item as a preliminary plat for Diffley Commons/Rottlund Homes, consisting
of a total of 208 units on approximately 27.6 R-4 (multiple) acres located along the north side of Diffley, east
of Rahn Road in the southwest quarter of Section 20. City Administrator Hedges said that this item had been
considered at the November 27, 1990 Advisory Planning Commission meeting and they had recommended
approval. He said because the Advisory Parks Recreation Commission had not yet considered the item and
would not until their January 10, 1991 meeting, it was recommended that the City Council continue this item to
the January 15, 1991 City Council meeting or make any approvals subject to APRC action.
Mayor Egan said it was common to approve preliminary plats subject to Advisory Parks Recreation
Commission action and asked Director of Parks Recreation Vraa if there was anything unusual about this
item. Mr. Vraa said one of the concerns the APRC had was the lack of green space in the development.
Because the development was now the property of Rottlund Homes, Mr. Vraa said the developer had looked
at some changes but was willing to work with staff regarding these changes. Councilmember Gustafson asked
Mr. Vraa if the City Council took action on the plat subject to 200 square feet of green space per unit whether
compliance could be taken care of in the final plat phase. Mr. Vraa said if the 200 square feet per unit were
going to be split up, there would be no value from a park perspective. Mr. Vraa said they would prefer a larger
area for people to utilize.
Councilmember Pawlenty said that the plat looks in order, however, he did not feel comfortable
approving 200 square feet of green space per unit subject to staff review if the staff was not comfortable with
the arrangement.
Wachter moved, Pawlenty seconded a motion to continue the preliminary plat for Diffley Commons to
the January 15, 1991 regulai City Council meeting.
Mr. Todd Stutz of Rottlund Company said his company had one problem with the City Codes's
definition of what constituted green space. He added that the final plat could make certain that his company
met the requirements of the APRC.

MILITARY /ACTIVE DUTY POLICY
After introduction by Mayor Egan, City Administrator Hedges said that after concerns were raised by
Councilmember McCrea, staff was directed to study options for discussion regarding a possible change in the
Page 15/EAGAN CITY COUNCIL. MINUTES
December 18, 1990
military/active duty policy of the City. He said a memo was included with the City Council's information which
attempted to address that direction. Mr. Hedges said additional considerations for the Council would be budget
constraints, what other cities are doing, and any legal requirements.
Councilmember McCrea thanked staff for their research but said she almost felt she should come to
a different conclusion. She said because two individuals had been called to active duty, their pay was
substantially reduced even though their salaries had been budgeted for a year. In addition, the Councilmember
noted that other cities were not doing anything era for such employees. The Councilmember said it was her
suggestion that the City Council look at Option #4, which was to make up a percentage of the difference in pay
and contribute the City's share of family health coverage if the employee wished that to be done. She said the
policy could be implemented when an employee was called to active duty and suggested that the City pay at least
50 percent of what the employee would normally receive.
Councilmember Wachter asked if policy would include draftees. Councilmember McCrea said she would
recommend that the policy be reconsidered if this draft were instituted. She said it was her original intent to
look at the issue because she does not believe in the draft and said the City should support those who do
volunteer.
Councilmember Wachter said the protection of the City was also important and it had been his intent
to use any money not spent, for the hiring of an additional officer who then would not have to be laid off in the
spring when the officers returned. He said he was very much in favor of continuing the health care coverage.
Mayor Egan said the Army Reserves had replaced the draft for a quick and ready mobilization of troops
similar to the draft. He said the City was like any employer whose employees had been called to active duty and
saw significant ramifications to a policy change because of the possibility of the draft being reinstated. He said
there could be significant precedent problems. Mayor Egan said, however, that he would support
Councilmember Wachter's suggestion.
Councilmember Gustafson said he favored Option #3 which would make up the entire difference in pay
for the employee and continue the City's share of family health insurance contributions. He said it should be
limited to those City employees who had voluntarily signed up for the Reserves and would not cover a draft
situation. The Councilmember said he believed the City should make up the entire difference in pay versus 50
percent. He suggested that perhaps the officers could be replaced on a temporary basis. Mayor Egan said at
a time of trying to certify our Police Department, he would be opposed to hiring a temporary sworn police
officer.
Councilmember Pawlenty asked Chief of Police Geagan if these officers' absence until spring would
seriously hamper the day -to-day operations of the Police Department. Chief of Police Geagan said some changes
had already been made and more overtime would have to be authorized. He said that if the country went into
an economic recession, it would have a greater impact on the Police Department because they see more activity
during such times. Councilmember Pawlenty then asked the City Attorney if the City Council approved this type
of financial aid, whether they would subject themselves to a legally binding precedent with future employees
asking for the same type of assistance. City Attorney Sheldon said he did not think there was any question that
if assistance were given now, employees in the future would claim it also. He said it didn't mean they were
entitled to such assistance but he believed that would be their claim. He said if it was the City Council's intent
to deal with these specific people, they would be on legally sufficient ground if the resolution were made very
dear that these were the only persons the Council was dealing with. He said it would not prevent future claims
and he could not predict how a judge would rule on a such a claim, but he did not believe the City would be
legally bound if the resolution was made very clear. Councilmember Pawlenty said he did not think it was fair
for the Police Department to operate two men short indefinitely, but said he also did not think the employees
who were making this commitment to their country should have to suffer. The Councilmember said he was in
Page 16/EAGAN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
December 18, 1990
favor of Option 3 which would make up the entire difference in pay with continuance of the payment of the
City's share of family health coverage. He suggested the situation be re- evaluated in 60 days and made clear
that this is not a permanent City policy and only applies to two employees at this time and then only for a
temporary period. In addition, he said it should be made clear that there was no binding intent as it related to
changed circumstances or to a significant increase in the number of affected employees.
Councilmember Gustafson then asked the number of Reservists that are presently on staff. City
Administrator Hedges said there were two and possibly three additional employees who could be called to active
duty in the Reserves. The City Administrator asked if this policy would apply to anyone who might be called
into the Reserves next week or only those two employees who are presently on active duty. Councilmember
Gustafson said that the City Council would be consistent in saying it would impact all persons who are enlisted
as members of the reserves as of December 18, 1990. He said if it would help with precedent and with budget
considerations, it was his intent that the policy for partial payment would be in effect from the time the Reservist
was called up until March 1, 1991 (or a similar date) at which point it could be re- evaluated or discontinued.
Councilmember Pawlenty said he did not think the City could afford to pay the entire difference in pay for those
employees called to active duty and replace them. He said if it appeared that the Police Department could not
function without these two persons, it could be re- evaluated.
Councilmember Wachter asked for an explanation of the Federal Government provision for mortgage
payment protection and bill paying protection for the Reservists when they are on active duty. City
Administrator Hedges said this was a program offered by the Federal Government and provides that if a
Reservist makes a reasonable effort to pay his /her bills while on active duty, then the Federal Government would
insure that they do not, for instance, lose their homes and provides a reasonable period of time once the reservist
returns to civilian life to reinstate their payments. Councilmember Wachter then asked about the possibility of
the State legislature making an adjustment for PERA while the Reservist is on unpaid leave. City Administrator
Hedges said it was being explored by the League of Minnesota Cities.
Councilmember Wachter said the Police Department was going to be two persons short and he would
be in favor of approving replacements for those persons. Mayor Egan agreed and added that he was
uncomfortable with developing policy that would only apply to two individuals and exclude anyone else who
would join the Reserves in the future. He said the City should either adopt a policy that is universal and uniform
that is fair and equitable to everyone or recognize that this was a policy that was limited to two individuals. He
said such a policy had no precedent and he knew of no other City or employer that had done anything similar.
Mayor Egan said he empathized with these employees, however, he did not believe the ramifications of the action
were in the City's best interest. Councilmember Pawlenty acknowledged points made by the Mayor, however,
because of the extraordinary circumstances that prompted the action and the magnitude and uniqueness of the
problem, he said it called for flexibility on the part of the City. Councilmember Gustafson said he could see
making the policy universal to include any volunteer Reservist on the payroll called to active duty and would
suggest a specific time frame on the policy, such as, from the point of call up to March 1, 1991.
City Administrator Hedges said that in light of budget cuts in 1991 and the likelihood of cuts occurring
again in 1992, the Council may wish to consider the use of the fund balance which was established to protect the
City from emergencies. He said in this instance, the City may have to draw funds from the fund balance to
possibly hire replacements, to fund all or a portion of the difference in wages, or a combination of those actions.
Councilmember Pawlenty asked Chief of Police Geagan bow many officers could be expected to be gone
during the peak vacation season in the summer. Chief of Police Geagan said the Department maintains a four
car minimum, meaning that at any point in time during the day there are at least four cars on the street. He
said because of this issue, on some of the slower days and at some of the slower times, the Department will be
going to a three car minimum. He said they will probably replace the two officers with overtime personnel in
addition to curtaining vacation use. Chief of Police Geagan said he would also suggest that the City Council
Page 17/EAGAN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
December 18, 1990
carefully consider the hiring of any part -time officers. He said there is a tremendous civil liability with police
work and he would be very reluctant to hire a part-time employee. He said temporary employees would be a
possibility.
Councilmember Gustafson recommended that the City look at the mechanism for paying either 50
percent or 100 percent of the difference in pay for those called to active duty and identifying the fund source and
then bring it back to the next meeting for discussion. He said in view of budget constraints, it would be helpful
to know exactly what amount of dollars are involved. Councilmember Pawlenty agreed saying he would like to
see this policy then applied to anyone currently registered or enrolled in the Army Reserve and would cover that
period between the date of enactment, December 18 to March 15, 1991. He added that it would also be the
stated intent of the Council to re- evaluate the policy at the end of that time. The Councilmember said it might
not help the City to replace these officers as it takes between three and six months to bring an officer on -line.
Chief of Police Geagan said the Department is presently in the process of hiring a Community Services Officer
and, if permitted to hire replacements, it would probably be mid -April before a replacement was ready to start.
Councilmember Pawlenty then suggested a dual track approach, suggesting that the Chief of Police make
contingency plans to bring on more officers. Police Chief Geagan said because the requirements for a CSO are
the same as for an officer, they have gone about as far in the process as they can go. He said they are at the
point now where the position must be offered to someone before they can proceed any further. Councilmember
Gustafson said it was possible that those officers who are on active duty could be back in 60 days and that any
employment should be offered conditionally. Mayor Eagan said it would probably dilute the quality of applicants
if the position were 60 days versus a life -time position. Councilmember McCrea brought up the point that a
position was not normally filled when someone was on a leave of absence and suggested a contingency plan to
fill the void.
McCrea moved, Pawlenty seconded a motion to compensate the two employees presently on active duty,
in addition to three other employees who are currently in the Reserves and could potentially be called to active
duty, at 100 percent of the difference in pay between their City salary and military salary and continue to
contribute the City's share of family health coverage, if the employee wishes this to be done, with a time line
ending March 1, 1991. The motion further stated that on March 1, 1991 the policy would be re- evaluated in light
of new developments or circumstances, including the demand for additional City employees being called for this
type of service, the impact on the City's budget and the needs of the various departments of the City.
Mayor Egan indicated he would vote against the motion as being too arbitrary.

CONSTRUCTION OF FOOTINGS/FOUNDATION PRIOR TO FINAL PLAT APPROVAL
TOWN CENTRE 100 NINTH ADDITION
After introduction by Mayor Egan, City Administrator Hedges said the City had received a request from
the developers of Town Centre 100 Ninth Addition for a footings and foundation permit prior to final plat
approval. He said staff had been protective of such requests in the past because they found that when a footings
and foundation permit was approved before final plat, building permits had not been processed in a timely
manner. City Administrator Hedges said there had been three exceptions to this policy and they were: Eagan
High School, Northwest Airlines Addition and West Publishing. He said the applicant had the right to request
the permit, however, it was anticipated that the final plat would be ready by the January 3, 1991 regular City
Council meeting.
Mayor Egan said that since the reason for this project was a State mandated policy, the City had
sufficient grounds for approving the request. Councilmember Wachter said the mandated program did not begin
until July and asked if the building would take that long to construct.
Mr. Rich Kubik, the Operations Manager of Systems Control, said that right now the applicant was
looking at a 120 day building cycle and with winter coming on, they were trying to get ahead as a week or two
now could save a month or a month and a half later on. Councilmember Wachter said he could not see the
urgency with a full six months to complete this relatively small facility. Councilmember Gustafson asked Mr.
Kubik if a denial of the footings and foundation permit would delay the project. Mr. Kubik said it could and
added that if approval was received, they could have the footings and foundation in by January 3.
Due to existing policy, Wachter moved, Egan seconded a motion to deny a request from the applicant
of the Town Center 100 Ninth Addition to begin construction of the footings and foundation prior to final plat
approval. Aye: 5 Nay: 0

1991 COMPENSATION BENEFIT ADJUSTMENTS
a. A 4% increase adjustment will be made to the City's current compensation
plan for all regular non collective bargaining employees, full and part-time.
Not only is this the figure approved with the 1991 budget, the staff has also
surveyed other comparable municipalities and the vast majority have passed
or are planning a 4% increase for their employees. In addition, it is
consistent with the compensation settlement the City has reached with the
clerical bargaining group.
b. Election judges' compensation shall be $5.00 for judges and $5.50 for precinct
chairs. This is the figure from the 1991 budget.
c. The City's contribution for health insurance premiums for 1990 to be the total
premium for employee only coverage or $262.76 for employee plus dependent
coverage for those employees choosing such coverage. This amount is an
increase over the 1990 amount of half of the lowest percentage increase of
any provider. The lowest percentage increase was 14.5 Therefore, the
$262.76 figure is an increase of 7.25 This is also the amount approved with
the clerical bargaining agreement.
d. Car allowances for those employees receiving same will increase at 4% to be
consistent with compensation increases.
e. The City's mileage rate will be adjusted to correspond to that of the IRS,
.26 per mile.
f. 1991 compensation rates for seasonal and temporary employees are currently
in the final stages of preparation for Council approval. Detailed information
concerning these rates will be forwarded to the Council with the
Administrative Agenda packet on Monday.

All other benefits will remain at the 1990 level.
