MEMO TO: CITY ADMINISTRA'IOR IiEDClES
FROM: KEN VRAA, DIRECTOR OF PARKS $ RECREATION
RE: LAWCON GRANT APPLICATION FY 1982
At the Advisory Parks and Recreation Committee meeting of February 5th,
staff reviewed with the Advisory Committee potential LAWCON applications
for the parks system. At that meeting the Advisory Committee, along with
staff, identified several of the park sites which could be potential
LAWCON applications for either additional acquisition or park develop-
ment. After review and discussion, the Advisory Committee concurred with
staff' s recommendation that Rahn Park, to include the additional acreage
now being acquired, be the next application for financial assistance of
the City of Eagan for a development grant. Further, the Advisory Parks
Committee was in agreement and recommended that technical assistance
which may be required in preparation of the grant, be provided by either
the City's planning consultant or through the consulting firm currently
being sought for Ridge Cliffe Park.
At this time concept plans for the potential development of Rahn Park
have not been prepared or developed. However, the development of the
Rahn Park facility has been designated as one which would include develop-
ment of athletic fields. Development of such facilities would be extensive
and expensive and, therefore, the grant would be written for the total
grant maximum allowable or $200,000. Under current LAWCON funding this
would mean that the City of Eagan would be responsible for 250 of that
cost or $50,000 should the grant application prove successful. The x
preliminary application is due, tentatively on May 1, 1981. If the grant
is ultimately approved, the City could not expect approval until mid to
late 1982.
Action to be taken: To either approve or disapprove of the preparation
of a preliminary grant application for the development of Rahn Park; and
to identify the potential source of matching funds.

MEMO TO: _ TOM HEDGES, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
FROM: KEN URAA, DIRECTOR OF PARKS $ RECREATION
RE: BID ITEMS
At the January 6, 1981 Council meeting, the Council authorized staff to proceed
with the advertisement and solicitation of bids for four pieces of equipment
for the Parks and Recreation Department. Bids were opened on February Sth
for two pieces and February 12th on the third. Bid opening for the 3/4 ton
truck/plow is scheduled for February 26th. Funding for all equipment is pro-
vided for in the 1981 operating budget or financed through equipment certifi-
cates.
7 Gang Mower and Related Appurtenances:
Specifications were drafted and mailed to four known bidders, and an advertise-
ment was placed in the official paper, as per procedures. The specifications
allowed for a demonstrator unit to be bid, provided all warranties were in full
force and effect. staffwas aware that such a unit, was available, as City
crews were permitted to use a new unit for trial purpose in the summer of 1980.
Bids
The City has received two bids for the Gang Mower as follows:
1) Minnesota Toro Inc; Plymouth, Mn $19?069.00
2) A.F.T. Sales; Anoka, Mn 27,351. 00
Both bidders have submitted valid bids and have met minimal specification
requirements.
Recommendation:
That the City proceed with the purchase of the Gang Mower, and related
equipment at a cost of $19,069.00 from Minnesota Toro. This cost is
approximately $3,000 less than anticipated for this equipment, and represents
a very attractive bid.
Mid-size Station Wagon:
Staff reviewed the functional use between the L.U.V. trucks and mid-size
Station Wagon for departmental and City needs. During this review, it became
apparent that it would be best to proceed with the biddingf amid-size
Station Wagon. Minimum bid requirements were drafted and senttofourteen
dealers representing the various auto manufacturers.
Bids
The City has received six price quotations. All bids appeared to meet the
minimum requirements. In evaluating each vehicle there is some difference;
i.e. E.P.A. mileage, cargo space, number of passenger seating, which effect
the over-all value and utility of the vehicle.
(D
The three lowest bids are as follows:
Ford Fairmont $6,870.00
Chrysler Le Baron 6,836.00
Chevrolet Malibu 7,020.49
Analysis:
All three vehicles meet the basic needs of the department and would be
acceptable.
The Chevrolet has a slightly higher E.P.A. mileage rating and a split-rear
gate for better loading/unloading. Interior space is slightly better than
Ford, but less than the Chrysler Le Baron.
i
Normal pricing of the Chrysler would be substantially higher than either j
Ford or Chevrolet. At this time, however, the Chrysler Corporation is
offering a 7% reduction on its sticker price. Ford had submitted a bid
of $6,780. 00, however, this price was less a "fleet delete package" which
is valued at $90.00, for a real base price of $6,870.00.
Recommendation:
Although the staff preference is for the Chevrolet, all three vehicles meet
the minimum requirements, and because the base price of the Le Baron is
$24.00 less than Ford and $184 less than Chevrolet, it appears that the
award should go to the Chrysler Le Baron.
i
Chemical Sprayer: .
Staff prepared and mailed seven specifications for a mobile sprayer unit and
related equipment. In bidding the equipment, staff drafted specifications which
would meet the practical limits and over-all usefulness required for the park
system. The unit to be recommended meets current and near future needs.
Application of liquid fertilizer, which isnot generally practical for a park
system, does have its purpose. This unit can be used for this purpose when the
need arises. In addition to the base unit, staff requested pricing on a sprayer
hand gun, additional hose and regulator to complete the unit.
Bids
Three vendors returned bids, with the base bids as follows:
Menning Manufacturing $2,750.00
Coffeys Power Equipment 3,095.00
Cushman Motor Co. 3,344.00
All units meet specifications and are of an acceptable quality.
Menning Manufacruring returned the lowest base bid, as well as the lowest
price for additional equipment, costing approximately $687.00. This total
price is the $3,600 budgeted. Other bids total additions exceeded this
amount. (Note: Menning Manufacturing has recently moved its plant from
St. Paul to Eagan. And, its believed, for this reason has submitted an
exceptionally good price.)
Recommendation:
To accept the base bid and related equipment as supplied by Menning Manufacturing.

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
D. Public Works Department -- Items #1 : Well #2-Gas. Pump Engine
Repair -- The City has experience3- engine -failure on the diesel
engine pump for Well #2 . It appears that this failure is caused
.by a leak in -the cooling system which affected the internal combus-
tion compartment . The Public Works Department received a quotation
to repair this from Ziegler Repair Service for the Caterpillar
engine. It appears that the repair to this engine will run between
$3,000 and $4, 300 depending upon the extent of damage after review
of the engine when it is dismantled. Due to the need for a standby
engine during the heavy summermonths and potential electrical
storm failure, staff is proceeding with the repair of the gasoline
engine unless directed otherwise by the City Council . This item
is informative and does not require any action by the City Council .
Item #2: Comprehensive Water & Sanitary Sewer Report Update -
TFe o prehensive Water & Sanitary Sewer Reports were last reviewed
and updated in 1976 . Due to the rapid growth that has occurred
in the City of Eagan combined with new requirements of the MWCC
and the recent completion of the Comprehensive Guide Plan of the
City, it is timely that a review and update of these comprehensive
plans be performed during 1981 . The Public Works Department has
solicited quotations from the consulting engineering firms of Bones-
troo, Rosene, Anderlik & Associates and Poltz, King, Duvall , Ander-
son & Associates and has also reviewed cost quotations with neigh-
boring communities pertaining to performing these comprehensive
updates . The most favorable quotation and time schedule was
received from Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik & Associates at an hourly
rate schedule with a guaranteed cost not to exceed $22,000 for
both 'reports combined. This cost would be funded out of the Utility
Enterprise Fund. During the review of these comprehensive plans,
a detailed analysis will be performed pertaining to the trunk area
assessment rates based on anticipated costs to complete the system
compared with the remaining aseessable acreage in the City. In
the past, these base trunk assessment rates have been increased
by an annual percentage equal to the construction cost index.
This will now give the City staff the opportunity to properly review
the complete system to determine equitable rates for the future.
Therefore, the Public Works Department is recommending to the City
Council that action be takenasfollows.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS MATTER: To .authorize the Public
Works Director to have the consulting engineering firm of Bonestroo,
Rosene,, Anderlik & Associates prepare an update to the Comprehensive
Sanitary Sewer &Water Plans for the City of Eagan for an aggregate
cost not to exceed $22 ,000.

Item #3: Subdivision Bond Requirements -- The Public Works Depart-
ment would like to receive consideration of possibly reviewing
and revising several items required to be bonded as a part of the
development agreements for subdivision approval within the City.
Presently, the City requires the bond be submitted for 20% of the
estimated cost of streets and utilities to be installed under City
contract . Due to the fact that all items constructed under a City
contracture assessed against the benefited properties , they become
a direct liability against that property and, consequently, the
requirement for bonding to guarantee payment of the first year
assessments has "never had to be enforced. It provides a problem
for staff in trying to keep track of the bonds and running special
assessment searches as to their balance to date whenever bond
reductions are . requested. A bond has never been called in order
to pay the 20% guarantee for specific assessments . This has created
a hardship for a few small developers (15 to 20 acres or less )
in being able to acquire sufficient financial guarantees in orde
to obtain the necessary bonds or letters of credit to cover the
special assessments that would be a liability of the property anyhow.
This has been a direct reason why the Sunset Addition final plat
never proceeded, and it is also creating problems for the
developers of the Overview Estates replat. In the latter instance,
the developer could not come up with the required letter of credit .
Subsequently, the City has a hold on all building permits until
the financial - guarantee of this 20% requirement can be met. The
developer can not sell the lots for subsequent development by
builders because of this restriction which precludes him from
obtaining the necessary cash to pay the assessments that were
recently levied. The Public Works Director and City Administrator
feel the 20% requirement is not necessary and would like considera
tion given to possibly eliminating this requirement on new subdivi-
sions .
Developers are also required to post a bond in the amount of 125%
of the estimated cost of the following off site improvements :
1 . Boulevard Sod
2 . Boulevard Trees
3. Bituminous Driveway Approaches
4. Street Signs
5. Survey Monumentation
6 . Tot Lot
7. Landscaping
8. Hard Surface Parking Areas with Bituminous Curbing
9 . Grading/Erosion Controls/Restoration
10. Other Miscellaneous

Agenda Information Memo
February 13, 1981
Page Six
Several of these items appear to be unnecessary and require that
the developer' s bond remain open ended until the very last lot
has been built upon in that particular subdivision. An example
in case would be the requirement for boulevard sod. This has been
incorporated into the City' s street contract and boulevard topsoil
and grass establishment is now performed as a part of the street
construction and assessed to the property owners . Therefore, there
is no longer a requirement for the developer to bond for this item.
Another point is the requirement for bituminous driveway approaches .
This bond has to "remain in effect until the last house is built
in a subdivision due to the fact that the developer- will not put
in the bituminous boulevard driveway on a vacant lot without knowing
where the future driveway is to be located depending upon the type
of house constuction. Another point is the street identification
regulatory sign requirement. The City would like to incorporate
this as a requirement of the street construction contract to insure
its uniform and timely installation. This cost becomes an obliga-
tion of the street construction contract and will be assessed
accordingly against the benefited properties . The bituminous
parking lot with concrete curb and gutter is a requirement of the
specific building permit and is required under the permit ' s issuance.
To require a bond as a part of the development creates an excessive
burden at the time of final plat approval rather than at the
specific time of site plan approval for the particular facility.
After review, - action would be in order for the City staff to modify
the requirements for bonding at the time of final plat approval
for the aforementioned information.
There are seven ( 7) items on the agenda referred to as consent
items requiring one ( 1 ) motion by the City Council . If there is
any item which the City Council would like to discuss in further
detail, that item should be removed from the Consent Agenda and
placed under Additional Items unless the discussion required is
brief. This will allow the Mayor to proceed with the Public Hearing
as legally noticed at 7:00 p.m.
1981 ENGINEERING RATE SCHEDULE
A. 1981 Rate Schedule for Consulting Engineering Services -- The
City has received a request from Bob Rosene of the consulting
engineering firm of Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik & Associates to
implement a new rate schedule for 1981 services rendered. The
attached schedule, found on page 12, , indicates the hourly rates
requested and also compares them with t e rates presently in effect
and shows their respective percentages increases . A survey was

B. Contract 216 B. Mallard Park 1st, 2nd and 3rd Addition Streets
for Final Payment/Acceptance - The City has received certification
from the consulting engineering firm that the above referenced
contract has been completed in accordance. with the City' s plans
and specifications. All inspections and tests have been performed
and found acceptable . The final construction amount was 2 .6% over
the revised contract amount due to an increase in gravel base
required due to unstable soil conditions. This project has been
assessed previously and final pay request has been taken into consi-
deration during the _final assessment cost tabulation.

tions . All inspections, tests and restoration have been performed
and found acceptable. The final construction amount of 3.88% over
the revised contract amount due to additional rock stablization
used for pipe bedding. This project was previously assessed for
trunk area assessments.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS MATTER: To authorize the ninth
and final payment to Nodlin Associates , Inc. , in the amount of
$6 ,449. 91 for Contract 79-6 and accept this utility for perpetual

pleted in accordance with the City plans and specifications. All
inspections and tests have been performed and found acceptable.
The City has received assurances from the contractor pertaining
to minor miscellaneous clean up items and this work is guaranteed
under his maintenance bond. Therefore, it is found to be beneficial
to close out this contract and, at the present time, to allow for
its final assessment. The final construction amount was 12 . 9%
under the contract amount. This project has not yet been assessed
and these final costs will be used in consideration of the final
assessment cost tabulation.

RIDGECLIFFE ADDITIONS FOR GRADING BOND REDUCTION
H. Ridgecliffe Addition for Grading Bond Reductions -- The City
has received a request from Orrin Thompson Homes for a reduction
in the grading bond for Ridgecliffe Addition from $50,000 to $25,000.
The grading and excavation is approximately 85% to 90% completed
while the restoration of boulevards is approximately 10% to 15%
completer Therefore, in calculating the reduction factor for the
grading bond, it is apparent that the grading permit is approxi-
mately 50% complete,' assuming an equal balance for the bond amount
between grading and restoration.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS MATTER: To approve the grading
bond reduction for Ridgecliffe Additions from $50,000 to $25 ,000.
REZONING OF PARK PROPERTY TO PUBLIC FACILITY ZONING
A. Rezoning of 29, Parcels to Public Facility Zoning (Zoning Map
Update) -- The City Planner, with some assistance from the Admini-
strative Interns, has completed a comprehensive study of the zoning
map. During the past several years , there have been in excess of
eighty subdivisions within the City. The City has requested land
dedications for park or public purposes as a part of the platting
requirements in many of these various, plats . The parcels have
therefore been dedicated to the City for public purpose. However,
the zoning on many of these parcels was never changed to public
facility zoning and therefore still reflect the zoning that was
in the proposed development. In order to accurately reflect the
parcels which have been dedicated to the City, the City must rezone
these parcels to P. Public Facilities District, in orde to
accurately show these parcels on the official map (zoning map) .
The City Planner has found twenty-nine parcels which need to be
rezoned to Public Facilities District . These twenty-nine parcels
were legally noticed as a public hearing to consider a rezoning
for this meeting. The parcels as prepared by the City Planner
are listed as follows :

BARREL RECONDITIONING, INC. -- VARIANCE AND CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
The Vice-Chairman convened the next public hearing regarding the application of
Barrel Reconditioning, Inc. , for a variance from the front setback requirements and
asphalt surfacing for a parking lot located on Lots 17, 18 and 19, Block 2, Eagandale
Center Industrial Park No. 4. Mr. ` Jim .Jordan, president of Barrel Reconditioning,
Inc., appeared for the applicant and made a limited presentation of the application
request due to the fact that this matter had been before the Commission previously.
Member Wilkins discussed an inspection visit performed by herself, City Planner
Runkle, City Administrator Hedges, and others, and reported that the operation
appeared to be well designed and that the facilities for control of hazardous
wastes, for which the Commission expressed great concern, appeared to be adequate and
that there would be very limited amounts of hazardous wastes resulting from the
Barrel Reconditioning process. It was noted that the Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency has classified the business as non-hazardous in its operation. There was
discussion about the timing of the asphalt surfacing for the parking lot. Mr.
Jordan indicated that,upon further examination of the cost of installing the asphalt
surfacing, it now appeared that such surfacing could be installed as soon as the
construction season began. Wilkins moved, Bohne seconded the motion, to recommend
approval of the application for a 15-foot variance from the front setback line for
the parking area and also for asphalt surfacing of the parking area upon the con-
dition that said surfacing be completed within a period of one year. All voted in
favor.
The Commission next considered the application of Barrel Reconditioning, Inc. , for
a conditional use permit to allow outside storage for Lots 17, 18, and 19, Block 2,
Eagandale Center Industrial Park No. 4. Member Krob requested clarification as to
the size of the Black Hili Spruce which were intended to be installed as a portion of
the proposed landscaping. Mr. Jordan indicated that the spruce would be 5-6 feet
tall and would be purchased at an initial cost of approximately $150 per tree. The
trees would therefore be as tall as the fence to be constructed. Hall moved to
recommend approval of the conditional use permit to allow outside storage, Wilkins
seconded the motion, all voted in favor, subject to the following conditions:
1. The storage does not exceed the 6-foot high fence.
2. Dust control measures shall be used on the storage area.
3. If and when development occurs to the east of the proposed facility, that
the owner shall submit a landscape plan to the City and provide landscaping acceptable
to the City on the east lot line of the property.

REPORTED BY: DALE C. RUNKL.E, CITY PuIZTER
APPLICATION SM1ITTED
An application has been submitted for a preliminary plat, Pilot Knob Center, which
consists of approximately 50 acres and contains 9 lots and 1 outlot. The second
application submitted is for detailed site plan approval for the first phase of a
Cormunity Shopping Center.
BACK(MUND
In November and December, Pilot Knob Associates were before the Advisory Planning
Cormssion and the Eagan City Council for approval of a rezoning preliminary plat
and detailed site plan. The City Council denied the application because Outlot B
was the area being requested for rezoning from residential multiple to corrunity
shopping center district. The Council at that time did not want to grant the zoning
on that parcel. Other concerns brought forth were there was no public access to
lots 1, 2, 3 and 4 of,Block .2 and the Council was also concerned about the alignment
of Duck-wood Drive. Since the time it was denied, there has been a joint between the
Advisory Planning Commission and the Eagan City Council to discuss the Cor)rehensive
Guide Plan and direction of how to use the land-use map. At the January 13th meeting,
the City Council had indicated that there will be no changes to the land-use map.
However, this particular parcel, which is identified as Outlot B, would stay desig-
nated on the Comprehensive Guide Plan as Cor unity Shopping Center District, but as
to when the zoning would occur would depend on the timing and the plans are submitted
for this area. Pilot Knob Associates has resubmitted an application which is being
processed at this tine.
M-1�ENNTS - PRELL UMMPY PLAT
The preliminary plat consists ofapproximately 54 acres and contains 9 lots and 2
outlots. The applicant is not proposing to develop Lots 1-4 of Block l at this
time. Dots 1-3, Block 1 are presently zoned Com-xuty Shopping Center. . Lot 4 is
zoned residential multiple. The applicant is proposing to plat the c:orr ercial lots
at this tine with the intent in mind that Lot 4 will have to retain the ponding area
to provide for the shopping center. Lot 4 is not proposed to be built on until such
time the property is zoned for a commercial use. Lots 1-4 of Bloc!: 2 are also not
intended to be built on at this time. However, Lot 5 of Block 1 will contain the
first phase of the shopping center. Outlot A is proposed for road right-of-way and

PACE TWO
Outlot B is the area which is presently zoned Residential Multiple and will not be
developed at this time. The plat also shows a 50-foot right-of-way to provide public
access to Lots 1-4, Block 2.
DETAILED SITE PLAN
The applicant is also requesting detailed site plan approval of the first phase of
the Corr=ty Shopping Center District. The detailed plan is located on Lot 5,
Block 1, Pilot Knob Center. Lot 5, Block 1 contains 14.2 acres. The proposed
shopping center contains 104,948 square feet for a lot coverage of 16.90. The park-
ing area requirement for this shopping center would be 558 parking spaces. The ap-
plicant is providing 636 spaces which is in excess of the parking requirement. All
stalls are 10 x 20 dimension. The proposed site plan meets all setback requirements
and ordinance recquiranents of 52. The only exception would be the public access
which is being dedicated on the westside of the plat which would provide access to
Lots 1-4, Block 1. The applicant is dedicating a 50-foot x 100-foot area which will
provide public access to the lots 1-4. The City is expecting the shopping center
to maintain this access and provide snowplowing and all essential maintenance as-
pects of this road. However, if the shopping center does not maintain this road in
the future, since it is a dedicated public street, the City will then maintain this
street and assess it to all areas. Therefore, suitable access should be obtained
for Lots 1-4 at anytime in the future.
Basically, the entire concept is the same as was presented before. However, the
applicant is not requesting to rezone Outlot B at this time. However, the ponding
areas, Duckwood Drive and everything else is the same as was presented. Hopefully,
the applicant has taken the concerns of the City into mind in this revised prelimi-
nary plat. If the plat is approved, it should be subject to the following conditions: j
1. The parking area shall be surfaced, and concrete curbing shall be provided
in areas where parking will not be expanded.
2. The plat shall be subject to Dakota County Plat Comnissicn and Minnesota
Department of Transportation's review and camient because the plat abuts
County and State rights--of-way.
3. A detailed landscape plan shall be submitted showing size, quantity and
specie of vegetation being planted. The plan shall also include areas
which will be sodded and seeded. This plan shall be approved by the City_
staff prior to final plat approval.
4. Detailed lighting plan shall be approved by the City staff.
5. An adequate landscape bond shall be retained and not released until one
year after the landscaping has been completed.
6. A pedestrian circulation plan shall be approved by City staff prior to
final plat approval.
7. All other carmrcial buildings in the center shall carry the same archi-
tectural theme as the first phase of the cammercial ccr lex.

RE: PR=1INARi Y PLAT - PILOT KNOB C12VrI'EIt
All eormients contained in my report dated November 20, 1980, for the November 25th
Advisory Planning Cotra~lissicn fleeting still apply to the preliminary plat of Pilot
Knob Center. However, when this was considered before the City Council at their
December 16th Council Meeting, there was some discussion pertaining to the degree
of curvature of the proposed alignment of Duckwood Drive between Pilot Knob Road
and Denmark Avenue. The d%ree of curvature proposed in front of the shopping
center is approximately 7.5 . This degree of curvature provides for a maximum
design speed of 45 mph. The degree of curvature for the alignment of Duckwood
Drive as it enters Dennark Avenue is approximately 10.50. This provides for a
max miL n design speed of approximately 40 mph. The current City policy pe—taining
to collector roads provides for a maxinnrn posted speed limit of 35 mph. The pro-
posed degree of curvature of this alignment is well within the anticipated design
speeds .of this roadway. The engineering department feels that the degree of cur-
vature proposed would be beneficial in minimizing any potential speed problems
which is desirable due to the anticipated volumes of pedestrian and vehicular
turning movements along this section of Duckwood Drive. I will be happy to dis-
cuss the technicalities and details of the engineering departr�ent's anal�isis in
review of this proposed alignrent and degree of curvature at the Planning Com-
mission Meeting of January 27, 1981.

RE: PRELINII' AR'_' PLAT PILOT KNOB SHOFPING CENTER
Public ,7orks Department has the following comments to offer for consideration
for approval of the above-referenced preliminary plat:
UTILITIES
Sanitary sewer of sufficient size and depth to handle this proposed develcprent
is readily available at the intersection of Duckwood Drive and Eenmark Avenue.
It will have to be extended to the west along Duck•,,icod Drive to service this
proposed development.
Plater main of sufficient size and capacity is readily available at the inter-
section of Krestwood Lane and Duckwood Drive and also at Denmark Avenue and
Duckwood Drive. This "missing link" of trunk water main will have to be con-
structed along the proposed alignment of Ducknood Drive in con unction •with
the developrent of this plat. A sufficient internal water main distribution
facility will have to be provided to insure adequate fire protection for this
shopping center complex in addition to connections of future develo^meats with-
in this proposed plat.
GR 21NNG AND DRAINAGE
This property is a continuous gentle slope from north to south. Trunk storm
sewer facilities to handle this anticipated development are readily available
at the intersectio of Duck-.rood Drive and Denmark Avenue. An internal story:
water;sedi-entation pond will have to be c:nstructed within the limits of this
proposed plat. The developer has indicated this ponding area to be located in
the southea3t corner. Internal storm sewer laterals wi`h catch basins will
have to be 2cnstructed along Duckwood Drive and within the internal parking
lot to intercept surface run-off and direct it into the sedimentation pond from
which it .vill enter the trunk storm sewer facilities ultimately draining into.
Fish Lake. Fish Lake has recently had its controlled storm sewer outlet con-
structed during the Sur^u_:er of 1980.
STREETS
Access -to this proposed plat will be provided by the connection of the "missing
link" of Duckwood Drive between Krestwood Lane and Denmark Avenue. The align-
ment proposed has been reviewed with staff, and the degree of curvature is
satisfactory for anticipated volumes and speeds of Duckwood Drive. A sidewalk
alonb the north side of Duck�rlood Drive will have to be constructed to provide
pedestrian access to this proposed shopping center. The sidewalk construction
will be a responsibility of this development. Future sidewalk construction ex-
tending north from Duclk ood Drive will be provided as additional lots are developed.
Because sf the anticipated traffic volumes venerated from this proposed use, a
meeting was held with representatives of MhDOT and Dakota County Highway Depart
meat pertaining to the impact on Pilot Knob Road, and also taking into considera-
tion access to thi-, property during the construction of I-35E. Some temporary
- A

widening :rill have to be performed on County Road 31 at the intersection of Duck-
wood Drive to provide for the appropriate turning lanes required to handle the
anticipated traffic volumes for this proposed shonpir_g center until such t_7^e as
I-35E interchange is completed. MnDOT personnel have indicated that durin,- t}a
Surer of 1983, the permanent upgrading of Pilot Knob Road at the intersection. c'
Duckrrood Drive will be completed. This temporary intersection improvement until
the permanent construction by MnDOT will be the responsibility of this develcn-
ment.
EASE!!!-:NTS ASID RIGHTS-^F'NAY
An 80-foot public right-of-way will have to be dedicated along the proposed ali^n-
ment of Ducl:rrood Drive be tyreen Crestwood Lane and Denmark Aver_ue as+a part of the
plat. A 75-foot half right-of-way will have to dedicated adjacent to Pilot Kncb
Road.Sufficient drainage and ponding easements will have to be dedicated to in-
corporate the proposed or.-site ponding/sedimentation pond. The limits of these
pending easements will have to be defined after engineerinz calculations determine
the required storage capacity. They will have to be dedicated prior to final
plat. In addition, all typical common lot line drainage and utility easements
will have to be dedicated.
SITE PLAN
The proposed development of the site for the sh-oping center has been reviewed
and no problems are anticipated with its proposed layout. A sidewalk is recc=ended
to be constructed from Duckwood Drive to the center of the shopping center complex
along one of the proposed medians along the major entrance to provide pedestrian
access from Du^krvood Drive to the shopping center. This should be constructed as
a part of this development.
I will be availacle to answer further questions regarding this propojal at the
Planning COI:3'.liSsion Meeting of November 25, 1980.

RE: Proposed Pilot Knob Shopping Center
Dear Planning Commission Members:
As planning consultants to Hillcrest Development we have been reviewing
the development potential of their sixty (60) ± acre site north of and
adjacent to the Pilot Knob Shopping Center. The Hillcrest site will
be substantially altered when Interstate 35E is built cutting diagonally
across property, effectively removing all access from Pilot Knob Road
and Yankee Doodle. Access will be gained- only from the yet to be
platted and constructed Denmark Avenue. It is quite important that
Denmark be constructed prior to the construction of Interstate 35E and
most appropriately at the time of the Pilot Knob Shopping Center
construction.
In 1979 we were working with Super Valu and the JKR Company on the same
Pilot Knob Shopping Center site and had several meetings with the City
staff to discuss development parameters. On 25 October 1979 we met with
John Voss and Dale Runkle. At that meeting it was expressed that the
City would be looking for development which would work in a manner that
tied vehicular and pedestrian traffic together so that there was a
positive relationship between developments. The ideas brought forth
were that of mutual pedestrian corridors connectinq maior shopping
centers and a vehicular belt around the centers much as one would find
at a regional shopping center. The combined commercial lands should
operate much as a "downtown" would �;harinq common road ;systems. In
particular, the City staff requested a road link on both the east and
west ends of the center to jive access to the north thus connecting
the two commercial areas into a cohesive devolopmont. This idea was
fostered by the City and we expect it to be carriod out. Our original
sketch (which is attached as Drawing "A") was r(-viowed with the Eagan
City staff on 18 December 1971) and we pointed out that we had
incorporated an access to the north on the west, side of the center.

The Pilot Knob Shopping Center (attached as Drawing "B") before you for
approvals has not provided that needed access to the north. We feel
this is an important element that should not be eliminated. The simple j
extension of the public street from Duckwood, which dead ends just shy
of the Center, to the northern property line would fulfill the planning
concerns expressed at previous staff meetings and would provide a
reasonable point of-access for Hillcrest development.
Thank you for your attention to this important detail.

Re: Pilot Knob Shopping Center
Comm. No. 80-124
Dear Planning Commission Members:
This morning we received in the mail , a letter from Howard Dahlgren Associates,
Inc. , on behalf of Hillcrest Development regarding their concerns for access
to their property from our shopping center site.
As 1 stated publicly during our Planning Commission and City Council appearances,
it would be mutually advantageous to us as well as Hillcrest Development, to
explore the possibility of joint roadway access from our -site to theirs and vice
versa. It is our intent to work with them to develop this access.
We would expect also that Hillcrest at the same time, would provide us with a
publicly dedicated access through their property as mutually convenient to our
site as our public access -would be to theirs.
We assure you of our cooperation in working out the details and would appreciate
Planning Commission direction to Hillcrest in determining how they intend to
provide access to our site.
Yours very truly,

PILOT KNOB CENTER PRELIMINARY PLAT AND SITE PLAN
Vice-Chairman Hall then convened the public hearing concerning the appli-
cation of Pilot Knob Associates for preliminary plat approval of Pilot Knob
Center and for site plan approval. The proposed center is located east of
Pilot Knob Road and south of Yankee Doodle Road. Mr. Mike Wertenen appeared
for the applicant and explained that, due to City Council concern as to the
present rezoning of 0utlot B, that the previous application for rezoning had
been removed from consideration. There were concerns regarding the curvi-
linear alignment of Duckwood Drive located within the plat, the suitability of
the 550-foot access easement located on the westerly portion of Lot 5, Block 1,
the extension of Denmark Avenue to the north, and whether sufficient changes
had been made in the proposal to satisfy Council objections. City Planner
Runkle stated that the applicant has discussed the proposed preliminary plat
with the staff and has attempted to resolve all prior objections. City Engi-
neer Bob Rosene discussed the location of Denmark Avenue, noting that its
location has been established for a long period of time on the City's proposed
street plan, and the' staff recommended that a 40-foot one-half right-of-way be
obtained for Denmark Avenue at this time. Public Works Director Colbert
indicated that the curvilinear alignment of Duckwood Drive is satisfactory for
the proposed traffic speeds along this minor collector street in that the
alignment would help to reduce speeds in this area. Mr. Wertenen stated that
the applicants will continue to work with Hillcrest Development, the developer
of the property immediately to the north of this development, to work out
provisions for joint public access to both sites. After discussion, the
following action was taken:
1. Preliminary plat. Krob moved to recommend approval of the revised
preliminary plat, Bohne seconded the motion, all voted in favor, subject to
the following conditions:
A. The parking area shall be surfaced, and concrete curbing shall
be provided in areas where parking will not be expanded.
B. The plat shall be subject to Dakota County Plat Commission and
Minnesota Department of Transportation's review and comment because the plat

APPLICATION SUBMITMD
The first application submitted is a request to rezone approximately 4.15 acres
frau A (Agricultural) to R-1 (Residential Single District) . The second applica-
tion submitted is a request for preliminary plat approval which consists of
approximately 4.15 acres and contains 3 single family lots.
F
CONT=S
At the present time, there are two existing hares on the property which have ac-
cess to Lone Oak Read. Mr. Shields presently lives in the home on the eastside of
the property. He is planning to give his son the home that he is presently_ living
in and would like to construct a new hcrm on the property.
Nor. Shields has worked with the City staff on the best,way to subdivide the property
in order to allow another house to be constructed. In working with the City staff,
the staff suggested that he do an overall design to see how we could maximize his
land in the future. Mr. Shields did consult an engineer to see has he could feasibly
subdivide the property and maximize the use of the land. The first exhibit is a
sketch plan which shows the maxir.m. use of the land showing that 6 lots could be
provided which would have access from a cul-de-sac street. The street would meet
the minimum requirements for a public street and all lots would be in excess of
the 12,000 foot requirement. However, Mr. Shields did not want to subdivide the
land in this fashion at this time. However, he has located his house on which
could became Lot 4 of the Addition when platted in the future.
The second exhibit is the preliminary plat, Tara Court, which contains 3 lots. Por.
Shields would like to plat the property at this time with the three lots and, in the
future, replat this parcel into the 6 lots like shown on the first exhibit. The 3
lots which are under consideration, Trots 1 and 2, contain approximately an acre and
a half. Lot 3 is approximately .6 of an acre. Mr. Shields is proposing to build on
Lot 2, which would have a 50-foot access to Ione Oak Road. At the present tire,
this would only consist of a driveway to Mr. Shield's hone. However, as shown on the
other exhibit, when the replat would occur a cul-de-sac could be put in to provide
access to this lot. Since Mr. Shields only wants to construct one house, he would
only like to plat the 3 lots at this tire. All lots exceed the minimum lot size re-
quirement for a single family residential district. The City has also, in the pas
allowed a 50-foot wide access to a public street or' a stove-pipe lot. However,tr_s wi l-

If approved, the plat should be subject to the following conditions:
1. The. plat should be subject to the Dakota County Plat Cotm-tission's review
and comrent because the plat abuts a County Road.
2. A park dedicatich'fee shall be required on the newly-created home.

RE: PRELIMINARY PLAT - T.ARA COURT (ART SHInD.S)
Public Works Departr.ent has the following comments to offer pertaining to the
proposed preliminary plat referenced above:
UTILITIES
Sanitary sewer and waterrlain facilities of sufficient size and depth are available
adjacent to this plat.
GRADING AND DRAINAGE
Drainage for this proposed plat can be handled by surface runoff into LeMay Lake
irriediately adjacent along the south portion of this property. Letlav Lake cur-
rently has its controlled storm water outlet installed. With the future subdivi-
sion of Tara Court, internal storm sewer catch basins will have to be installed
to intercept street drainage directed to ikrMay Lake.
STREETS
The 'proposed subdivision of Tara Court into three lots at this time will lend
itself to future subdivisions into the proposed six lots based on the configura-
tion of the proposed plats submitted. The proposed future cul-de-sac length
is well within City standards.
EASUMENTS AND RIGHTS-OF-[%Y
A 55-foot half right-of-way will be required to be dedicated adjacent to Lone
Oak Road. A drainage easement must be dedicated to incorporate the 878.0 eleva-
tion along the south portion of this proposed plat fc Le'yay Lake. Additional
-
eommon lot line drainage and utility easements will not be required at this time
due to potential for future replatting to avoid the necessity of vacating these
easements should future lot lines change under the proposed future reolat. The
existing utility easement for the sanitary sewer line traversing across the
south portion of this plat should be dedicated and shown on all future plats.
OTHER
This prcperty has not yet paid its trunk storm sewer area assessments and should
be conditioned to do so prior to final plat approval. In addition, only a porticn
of the trunk area water assessments have been levied on this overall parcel. The
remainder of the trunk area utility assessments should be paid as a condition of
this plat approval.
I will be available to discuss in further detail any item pertaining to the above-
referenced preliminary, plat at the Planning Commission Meeting on January 27.

The Vice-Chairman convened the next public hearing regarding the applica-
tion of Arthur Shields for the rezoning and preliminary plat approval r for
Tara Court located in the northwest quarter of the northwest quarter of Sec-
tion 10 on Lone Oak Road. Mr. Ralph Wagner of Probe Engineering Company
appeared for the applicant and indicated that the property consisted of ap-
proximately 4.15 acres for which the present zoning category is Agricultural.
The property is presently divided in two parcels and the proposal requires the
rezoning to R-1, Residential Single District, and the subdivision of the
property into three single family lots. City Planner Runkle indicated that
the applicanthas worked with the staff to provide an overall design for
further subdivision of this land in the future. Members expressed concern
regarding the approval of an additional cul-de-sac and Public Works Director
Colbert indicated that a cul-de-sac was necessary to serve this property
considering the size of the parcel and the surrounding terrain. After discus-
sion, the following action was taken:
1. Rezoning. Wilkins moved to recommend approval of the rezoning of the
subject property, Krob seconded the motion, all voted in favor.
2. Preliminary plat approval. Hall moved to recommend the approval of
the preliminary plat, Wilkins seconded the motion, all voted in favor, subject
to the following conditions:

COMMENTS
TTS
The proposed development consists of 6.2 acres of which 2.73 acres are below the high
water level. The 7 lots all exceed the 12,000 square foot requirement arra all meet
the minm n setback requirements at a public street.
The cul-de-sac is approximately 330 feet in length which is under the cul-de-sac
length requirement for a public street.
All setback requirements and ordinances are net with this proposed addition. Staff has
looked at the possibility of looping the cul-de-sac into over-hill Farm Addition. How-
ever,
owever, the topography does not lend itself for this connection. Therefore, the cul-de-
sac street is the most practical way to develop this parcel. If approved, the plat
should be subject to the following conditions:
1. Cash dedication per lot shall be required for the 7 lots,. All ordinance require-
ments shall be met.
2. All other City ordinances shall be met.

RE: PRE UNARY PLAT - Dr= ADDITION
Public Niorks Depart hent has the following CmTrents to offer pertaining to consider-
ation of the above-referenced proposed preliminary plat:
LT niTIESS
Trunk sanitary sewer and watermain facilities of sufficient size and depth are
readily available within the Dodd Road right-of-ray. Internal laterals will
have to be installed with the development of this plat to service the individual
lots. It is anticipated that the trunk sanitary sewer will extend across and
parallel to the northern property line of this proposed plat on the scuthside
of Hay Lake to service the South Oaks Addition and Section 36 south of Cliff Road.
GRADING AND DRAINAGE
The general slope of this property provides for surface drainage directly into
Hay Lake on the northside of this plat. The proposed grade submitted for the
street are within the allowable guidelines. However, the proposed grading along
the northside of the cul-de-sac does not neet the required 3:1 standards and
encroaches within the high water elevation of Hay Iake. Consequently, this cul-
de-sac will have to be shortened and the grades adjusted to eliminate any en-
croachnmt below the 910.0 elevation of Hay Lake; and either terracing will have
to be performed or a 3:1 slope will have to be provided for to this elevation.
Due to the existing and proposed grades of this property, the configuration of -
the cul-de-sac will have to be revised frau that submitted dated 10-24-80.
EASEP'D 'I'S AND RIGHTS-OF-VM
Sufficient right-of-way has previously been acquired for the recently inproved
f trunk sari .sewer
al the
Dodd Road. However, with the extension o the tart' orxJ
northern portion of this property combined with the existing Hay Lake, a drainage
and utility easement will have to be dedicated along the northern portion of this
plat incorporating 911.0 elevation. The City staff, through its consulting firm,
is presently working on the alignment for the proposed trunk extension of the
sanitary sewer. The exact easement required for this trunk extension of the
sanitary sewer cannot be accurately determined until nore precise detailed infor-
mation is provided pertaining to the legal description and boundary survey for
this proposed plat as it conforms with the existing elevation. In any event,
a drainage easement will be required to incorporate the 911.0 elevation for Hay
Lake.
I will be available to discuss in further detail these items at the Planning Cam-
mission Meeting on January 27.

The applicant has done a very good job in the layout and design of the proposed
planned development. The primed plan shows the extension of Covington Lane to
Galaxie Avenue. It also takes into consideration Narvik Drive which also bisects
the northeastern portion of the site. The applicant has pieced together some of
the land-locked parcels in Ridgecliffe Addition, which will make the land-locoed

parcel developable at this time. The applicant is also proposing to put duplexes
abutting the Ridgecliffe Addition, then moving to a higher density as you go
west to Galaxie Avenue. All of the proposed land uses for the type of dwelling
meets the zoning ordinance requirements for lot coverage and density. The R-3,
or todnhouse developr.ent, is proposed to develop as either 6-plexes or 8-plexes.
Which ever type of unit would occur, the development would meet the 6.4 dwelling
units per acre. The applicant is also proposing to develop this planned develop-
ment with the passive solar concept. The buildings are all directed to maximize
the angle of the sun for both summer and winter. The applicant has also indicated
that the construction would be with 2 x 6 walls for maximum insulation versus the
2 x 4, which is presently the standard in the building code.
PRIELIMMSPM PLAT FIRST PHASE
The first phase of development will contain 13 lots and 2 outlots. The area
which will be developed will contain approximately 7.9 acres and contain 44
dwelling units. The area which is being platted will have access by a looped
street which will connect to Galaxie Avenue. The applicant is also proposing
to plat a stub street to Ridgecliffe Addition in order that Orrin Thompson can
develop the almost land-locked parcel. Another stub street is provided on the
southerly portion of the looped street, which in the future, will be a cul-de-sac
serving the duplex units. The applicant is also proposing to plat Covington Lane
extension from the Ridgecliffe Addition to Galaxie Avenue. The entire 35.7 acres
is taken up with the plat with the First Phase. However, only 7.9 acres can
develop at this time without a re-plat of either one of the two outlots. The
applicant is proposing to construct duplexes on lots 1-4 of Block 1; Wt 5, Block
1 will contain 4 townhouse buildings with 6 dwelling units in each building for
a total of 24 units. Lots 1-3, Block 2 and Lot 1, Block 3 will be single family
homes. Lots 1-4, Block 4, will also contain duplex buildings. The only lot which
at the present time does not meet ordinance requirements is Lot 1, Block 3. Pre-
sently, this lot contains 11,100 square feet. In the future there will have to
be cooperation between Ridgecliffe Addition and Galaxy Park. There is a small
triangle which should be traded by each one of the developers to make the lots
oonform to this addition. With this additional triangle, Lot 1, Block 3 would
then contain 12,150 feet, which is in excess of the square footage requirement
for a single family residential home. The applicant has proposed a phasing plan
for this development. The phasing plan will be done in three phases, the first
being 1981-1982, the second, possibly 1981-1983 and the third phase being in 1982-
1986. The applicant is then proposing a 5-year planned development for Galaxy
Park Planned Developmmt. If approved, the planned development should be subject
to the following conditions:
4 1. A planned development agreement shall be drafted and executed with the City
of Eagan, rw t -i o j--o-i- .. .{-v� c c)
2. There shall be no more than 170 &ening units allowable for construction
within the planned deve]qpment.
E.. 3. A detailed grading and drainage and erosion control plan 'shall be approved
by City staff.
4. A detailed 1Fu�dscape plan shall be approved by the City staff, and a land-
scape bond of $2,000 shall be required and not released until one year after
the landscaping has been ompleted.

FROM: THCMP,S A. COLBERT, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS
DATE: JANUARY 22, 1981
BE: PREIMMIl ,RY PLAT - GALAXY PARK ADDITION
Public Works Department has the following cam encs to offer in regards to the
proposed preliminary plat:
UTILITIES
Sanitary sewer, watermain and storm sews facilities of sufficient size and depth
to service this proposed addition are anticipated to be installed during 1981 under
Project 316. Public hearings for these public utility installations are anticipated
to be held during April of 1981.
GRADING AMID DRAINAGE
The overall drainage for this plat will be picked up by internal storm sewer laterals
as necessary, and directed to the onsite ponding area which will have a controlled
storm water outlet provided under Project 316 as discussed previously.
STREETS AMID TRAIL;)AYS
Due to the configuration and topography of this parcel of property, the proposed
cul-de-sac is acceptable as proposed to the Public Works Departr�ent. The developer
is proposing to continue Covington Way frau Ridgecliffe 1st Addition to Galaxie ,
Avenue. Although this is a minor collector, the proposed 60-foot right-of-way is
acceptable as proposed. There will be a requirement for a 5-foot concrete sidewalk
to be installed along the northside of Covington Lane. An 8-foot bituminous trail-
way will be constructed along the eastside of Galaxie Avenue under Project 316 by
the City.
EASFfimVTS AMID RIGHTS-0F-AW
Sufficient right-of-way has already been acquired for the relocation of Galaxie
Avenue by MnDOT. Sufficient drainage easements must be dedicated to incorporate
the 916.0 elevation of Pond AP-15.
I will be available 'to answer any questions concerning this plat at the Planning
Cmn-&ssicn Meeting of January 27.

GAI.XIE PARK ADDITION REZONING AND PRELDURAR? PIAT
The next hearing convened concerned the application of Thomas Heiberg for
the rezoning of approximately 36 acres located in the east half of the north-
west section . of Section 32 from Agricultural to Planned Development District
and also for the preliminary plat approval of the first phase of Galaxie Park
Addition containing approximately 7.9 acres and containing 44 proposed dwel-
ling units. Stelious Astelinidos appeared for the applicant and discussed the
proposal including the connection with several streets platted in the Ridge-
cliffe Addition and also the fact that the plat had been designed to fully
utilize passive solar capabilities. There was concern that adequate parking
spaces be provided as required by Ordinance and City Planner Runkle indicated
that 2-112 spaces per unit would be required for the multiple dwellings.
Member Krob discussed the need for one or more tot lots within the planned
development and City Planner Runkle stated that the construction of tot lots
have been imposed as conditions in similar developments located within the
City. Member Wilkins indicated her concern that, should the cul-de-sac ex-
tending between Blocks 2 and 3 not be constructed prior to the sale of Lots 1
through 3, Block 2, the applicant should inform the buyers of these lots that
only temporary access will be allowed off of Galaxie Avenue. After further
discussion, the Planning Commission took the following action:
1. Krob moved, Heywood seconded, that the Planning Commission recommend
rezoning to Planned Development District subject to the following conditions:
A. That the Planned Development be completed within a period of
five years.
B. A Planned Development Agreement shall be drafted and executed
with the City of Eagan.
C. That there shall be no more than 170 dwelling units allowable
for construction within the Planned Development.
D. That the underlying zoning shall remain Agricultural.
All members voted in favor.
t
2. Preliminary plat. A motion was made by Krob, seconded by Gits, that
the Planning Commission recommend to the City Council approval of the prelimi-
nary plat of Galaxie Park Addition under the following conditions:
A. A detailed grading, drainage and erosion control plan, including
the proposed elevation and location for garages on each lot, shall be approved
by the City staff prior to final plat approval.
B. A detailed landscape plan shall be approved by the City staff
prior to final plat approval and a landscape bond adequate to require compli-
ance with the plan shall be required with each phase of development and not
released until one year after the landscaping has been completed.
C. A cash park dedication shall be dedicated with the platting of
each phase. This dedication shall be based on the park dedication rate in
effect at the time of final plat approval of each phase.
D. The homeowner's association bylaws shall be reviewed by the City
staff before final plat approval.
E. A 5-foot concrete sidewalk shall be installed at the cost of
this developer along the north side of Covington Lane.
G. A drainage easement incorporating the 916.0 elevation for Pond
AP-15 shall be dedicated as a part of final plat, in addition to the common
drainage and utility easements adjacent to property lines.
H. All other easements required by the City shall be dedicated as
required by the City staff.
I. Prior to final plat approval of the first phase, the developer
shall submit for City approval a plan for the location of tot lots adequate to
serve the needs of the development. The tot lots shall be constructed at the
developer's cost with the applicable phase of development.
J. The developer shall dedicate a 40-foot half right-of-way for
Galaxie Avenue south of the right-of-way acquired by the Minnesota Department
of Transportation.
K. The .developer shall inform any purchasers of Tots located in
Block 2 that only temporary access will be allowed off of Galaxie Avenue and
plans for permanent access off of the adjacent cul-de-sac shall be provided at
the time of building permit request.

SUBJECT: VARIANCE
APPLICANT: J. I. CASE - R. D. BERNSTEIN
LOCATION: Sh$4 OF THE N6.;, SDCTICN 2
EXISTING ZONING: I-1 (LIGHT INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT)
DATE OF PUBLIC HEARING: JANUARY 27, 1981
DATE OF REPORT: JANUARY 20, 1981
REPORTED BY: DALE c. RUN M, CITY PLANNER
R
APPLICATION SUBMITTED
An application has been submitted for a variance to exceed the 3516 lot coverage
in a Light Industrial District.
CM1'.CrM
J. I. Case presently has their many located in Eagan. The present facility
contains approximately 69,700. square feet on a lot which is 5.3 acres for a
lot coverage of 29%.
Glen J. I. Case. originally bought the property, the lot area was 6.8 acres.
The State has purchased right-of-way to upgrade State Highway 55 and Lexington
Avenue. This right-of-way acquisition reduced the Lot or site to 5.3 acres.
J. I. Case is pmposiug to build a 28,450 square foot addition to their present
facility. This addition would be strictly warehouse and it is the City's under-
standing that this addition would only add an additional four full-time em,loyees
to J. I. case's present work force. Therefore, the staff does not see a problem
with parking for this facility at this time.
The problem which J. I. Case is facing is that this proposed expansion will create
a lot coverage of 40.8%,,whish is in excess of the City's lot coverage requirements
for an Industrial District. J. I. Case is going through the process to buy back
right-of-way. The State will not need to upgrade these two roadways. There is
approximately 1.2 acres which J. I. Case could re-aquire from the State. This
would bring bade J. I. case's Lot size to 6.5-6.8 acres, and the proposed expansion
would then only create a 33% lot coverage which would be within the requirement
for lot coverage within an Industrial District. In reviewing this applicaticn,
one can juggle the lot coverage requirements around depending if J. I. Case owned
the property or if the square footage in question would still remain in-right-of-WW
or green area retained by the highway department. A point to be considered is that
the land area is still there no matter who owns what property, and the intent of
the ordinance to provide openess arra green space within an industrial park is still

being met. Therefore, there is sane justification in granting the variance request.
If approved, the variance should be subject to the following conditions:
1. Even though the intent of the Industrial District is being met, J. I.
Case pursue the re-acquisition of the excess right-of-way to meet the
technical aspect of the zoning ordinance.
2. A site plan shall be approved by the City staff showing the parking
ratio for the overall develognent of the site.
3. A landscape plan shall be submitted and approved by the Eagan City
staff.

J. I. CASE VARIANCE
The Vice-Chairman next convened the public hearing for a variance from
the ordinance requirement that building area not exceed 35% lot coverage
within an I-1, Light Industrial District. The variance was requested by J. I.
Case Company and R. D. Bernstein appeared for the applicant. Mr. Bernstein
indicated that the existing J. I. Case facility contains approximately 69,700
square feet and has lot coverage of approximately 29% on their 5.3 acre
parcel. The proposed expansion of the building would result in a 40.8% lot
coverage. J.I. Case Company is presently negotiating the repurchase of prop-
erty previously dedicated for highway use to the State of Minnesota and the
purchase of the intended parcel would reduce the lot coverage to 36.7%. In
the future, J.I. Case will also be reacquiring a second parcel which would
reduce lot coverage to approximately 33%• City Planner Runkle discussed the
two parcels which are to be reacquired and stated that the intent of the
ordinance requirement is presently being complied with because these parcels
exist as green area, whether owned by the State of Minnesota or by J. I. Case
Company, but wherever possible, the technical requirements of the ordinance
should be complied with. Upon further discussion, Gits moved, Krob seconded,
and all members voted in favor, that it be recommended to the City Council
that a variance from the 35% maximum lot coverage requirement be approved
allowing an increase to 40.8% under the following conditions:
1. Even though the intent of the Industrial District is being met, J. I.
Case should pursue the reacquisition of the excess right-of-way to meet the
technical aspect of the zoning ordinance.
2. A site plan shall be approved by the City staff showing the parking
ratio for the overall development of the site.

3. A landscape plan shall be submitted and approved by the Eagan City
staff.
4. Compliance with all other ordinance requirements.
5. The owner shall enter into a recordable agreement with the City of
Eagan stating that there shall be no change in the use of the property without
prior City Council approval.

RE: AGENDA ITEM F UNDER NEW BUSINESS - TEMPORARY ADVERTISING SIGN FOR
DEVEIOPER'S CONSTRUCTION INC
An application has been submitted for a tenQorary advertising sign advertising
Safari Estates, which is a new develcVnent located in the SPh of Section 32.
The proposed sign is located in the SW guadrant of Cliff Road and Galaxie Road.
The proposed sign has approximately 32 square feet and it meets all the setback
requirements. The applicant is requesting the temporary advertising sign which
is in accordance with Ordinance #16.02, Subdivision 1, Terpbrary Advertising
Signs advertising new residential developments are allowed in agriculturally-
zoned areas. A temporary advertising sign is allowed for a specific duration
not to exceed two years. Therefore, the applicant is requesting that the per-
mit be granted for two years in accordance with Ordinance 16. However, the
application will be reviewed by staff and a sign permit will be charged for
the second year. Enclosed is a picture of the sign which is being proposed
for the temporary advertising sign permit. The applicant has, however, already
erected this sign on February 6, 1981 and in order to axrply with the ordinance,
the applicant must acquire the temporary advertising sign permit. All other

SUBJECT: TAX EXEMPT MORTGAGE HOUSING ISSUE
I reviewed the tax exempt mortgage housing issue you raised at
the last City Council meeting with Mr. Dick Lincoln of Miller and
Schroeder. - First of all , the agreement had a set aside restriction
to allow no more than 20% of the moneys deposited in the Acquisition
Fund to be used for single family townhouse residences during a
nine month period. It so happened that May 6 was the closing date
for the program; and on February 6, 1981 , or last Friday, this
restriction was lifted. Dick and I both agree that Banco over-
interpreted the language regarding the set aside restrictions .
If you refer to the attachment, page 30, language reads "For the
nine-month period following the date moneys are first deposited
a in the Acquisition Fund, no more than twenty percent of the moneys
r deposited in the Acquisition Fund may be used to acquire Mortgage
Loans for single family Townhouse Residences ." The word may seemed
to be interpreted as will in the way Banco treated their reserve
fund. However, those moneys have been freed up and can be used
for any type of single family housing as of last Friday. With
a waiting list of some twenty to twenty-five applications, it is
doubtful whether the freeing up of the money will accommodate any
new applications with such a long waiting list.

MEMO TO: CITY ADMINISTRATOR HEDGES
FROM: ADMINISTRATIVE INTERN ULRICH
DATE: FEBRUARY b, 1981
SUBJECT: CENSUS INFORMATION UPDATE
A recent coversation with a Census Bureau representative in Kansas
City, Kansas , yielded the following information:
1. As previously reported, the revised preliminary counts for
the City show that the City had a population of 20,700 and
a housing count of 7,215 units at the time , the census was taken.
These figures are not expected to change significantly.
2. Final population and housing counts will be available in
e ruary or March ot this year. These counts will include
only the total population and housing counts for the entire
City. That is, there will be no further breakdown of the counts
either by geographic area or by demographic characteristics ,
e.g. , age, sex, race or income.
3. Final block (small geographic area) data will be available
tor the City in du or August of this year. These block
statistics will include a complete demographic breakdown by
block and by enumeration district (a larger geographic area)
and will also include detailed information for the entire City.
4. Final census tract data will be available in April , 1982.
This in ormation will include detailed demographicaceta lot
City census - tracts and geographic subdivisions. It was not
readily apparant why this information will not be available
until April , 1982. The Census Bureau Representative gave the
explanation that census tract boundaries will not be defined
until that time. However, it is my belief that for the purposes
of the City the block data received in July/August 1981 will
certainly be of sufficient detail to provide any demographic
information necessary.

Re: Industrial Development Revenue Bond Approval
Safari Mall
Eagan, Minnesota
Dear Tom:
On behalf of Eagan Associates, we would like to request a indefinite
postponement of the public hearing that was scheduled for February 17
on the above referenced project. We have been contacting prospective
lenders to get a feel for the terms that are available and have found
that financing is not advantageous at this time. From these conversations
it is Eagan Associates' decision that it would be in the project's
best interest to step back and wait to see if the financial market
will improve in the near future. If you have any questions regarding
this request, please contact me.
Sincerely,

Re: Model Drug Paraphernalia Act -- Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals Decision
Dear Mr. Hedges:
This letter is for the purpose of informing you and the City Council of the
effect of the recent Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals decision on the City's
Drug Paraphernalia Ordinance.
On December 8, 1980, the Sixth Circuit Appeals Court passed on the constitu-
tionality of the Model Drug Paraphernalia Act, which is the basis for the City's
present Drug Paraphernalia Ordinance. The Court found the ordinance of the
City of Parma, Ohio, to be unconstitutional in part, and constitutional in
part. The unconstitutional portions are capable of .being removed from the
ordinance without interfering with the basic purpose of it.
The Court found that a portion of the definition, referring to items "designed
for use" with illegal drugs is vague and over broad. The Court also found
language referring to persons who "reasonably should know that other persons
intend to use a device with drugs," is vague and over broad&, In addition, the
Court found the section controlling the advertisement of drug paraphernalia
violates the First Amendment. Finally, the Court found that one of the enforce-
ment guidelines referring to "legitimate suppliers" is vague and over broad.
The Court suggested the other enforcement guidelines, while not being unconsti-
tutional, could possibly result in guilt by association.
Based upon the Sixth Circuit decision, the Eagan Ordinance could quite easily
be amended to conform with the guidelines in the opinion. Apparently a number
of cities in Ohio are planning to do that. However, the City of Parma has
filed an appeal with the United States Supreme Court in hopes of having the
entire ordinance found constitutional.
The City of Eagan's options in response to the decision are basically two.
First, the City could refrain from changing the ordinance and wait for a
decision by the United States Supreme Court. Second, the City could amend
the ordinance to comply with the Sixth Circuit decision. It should be stressed
that the Sixth Circuit decision is not binding on courts in the State of

Minnesota, but it does have some persuasive weight. There is presently pending
an Eighth Circuit decision on the Model Drug Paraphernalia Act, but it is unknown
when that will be decided. The question of how to respond is not particularly
crucial at this point, because there are no known suppliers of drug paraphernalia
within the City, and if a court case arose challenging the ordinance, the City
could amend it at that time to conform with the Sixth Circuit decision.
Very truly yours
Bradley Smith
