DATE: APRIL 19, 1996
SUBJECT: SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL MEETING/TUESDAY, APRIL 23, 1996
MEMO

consider five agenda items requiring policy direction. The Mayor and City Administrator
will be attending the ;Municipal Legislative Commission Board of Directors meeting that
begins at 4:00 p.m. but will be present for the beginning of the Special City Council
meeting.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
During calendar 1996, there have been joint commission meetings with Solid Waste
Abatement. Paries. Recreation & Natural Resources and the Joint Cable Commission.
The Economic Development Commission is scheduled to meet with the City Council on
two items: 1; to receive City Council direction regarding the TH 55/149 redevelopment
plan; and 2) to discuss the EDC work program as presented by its Chairperson Cathy
Clark-Matuszek
For .additional information regarding both items; refer to a memo prepared by Assistant
to the City Admir.istrat: r Hchenstein and =DC Cnair Cathy C,ark-Matuszek enclosed on
pages through
Approximately 1'/ hours have been set aside for our joint meeting with the Economic
Development Commission.
EFFECTIVE GOLF COURSE SYSTEMS REPORT
With the recent sale of Carriage Hills Golf Course to Ray & Rosie Rahn, to be operated
as a golf course. the report the City Council sanctioned from Effective Golf Course
Systems will take or a different discussion;. When the City w -as contacted by Bill Smith,
former owner of Carriage Hills Golf Course in June. 1995 asking whether the City of
Eagan would be interested in acquiring Carriage Hills as a municipal golf course, the City
Council authorized a study by Effective Golf Course Systems that would analyze Carriage
Hills and begin to address the ultimate public policy question whether the City of Eagan
should be in the municipal golf course business, specifically the ownership of Carriage
Hills. Before the report was finalized and the City had an opportunity to have
informational meetings, public hearings, etc., the golf course was optioned to Pulte during
early October. There was no further work performed by Effective Golf Course Systems
during the remainder of 1995.
During January, 1996, a decision was made by the City Council to again sanction
Effective Golf Course Systems to finalize their report on municipal golf course ownership.
At that time, there was uncertainty whether the Pulte Homes proposal for a
comprehensive guide plan amendment for a mixed residential development might be
approved, the City had pursued ownership of the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance 200
acre track of land which was later purchased by DART and was contacted by the Lost
Spur Country Club regarding municipal golf course ownership at the Lost Spur for their
long-term planning. Given the uncertainty of Carriage Hills and the DART property, the
Council asked Effective Golf Course Systems to review several scenarios that include
ownership of Carriage Hills, the DART property or some combination of the Carriage
Hills/DART property as a municipal golf course. A copy of that report is enclosed without
page number for Council review. The City Administrator, Director of Parks & Recreation
and Director of Finance met with Effective Golf Course Systems' consultants on Monday,
April 15. Recognizing that Carriage Hills Goif Course is now under new ownership, the
agenda changed to address how the City could become a public partner to existing golf
courses by providing a community center/driving range (golf learning center concept),
right of first refusal concept with existing golf courses if their owners contemplate a sale
in the future and other policy considerations. The cover letter provided by Effective Golf
Course Systems alludes to those policy questions.
The City Administrator has invited both Ray Rahn, owner of Carriage Hills Golf Course,
and Don Larson, the owner of Parkview, to the meeting to share in the information the
consultants will present at that meeting.
CENTRAL PARK THEME
The Director of Parks & Recreation and City Administrator would like to further discuss
the Central Park theme. Although a separate item, a portion of this discussion may
evolve out of the Effective Golf Course System's discussion, as an earlier agenda item.
SKATEBOARD PARK PROPOSAL
The Mayors of Apple Valley, Burnsville, Eagan and Lakeville met to discuss the possibility
of joining efforts to support development of a skateboard park in the four communities.
For additional information on this item, refer to a letter sent by the four Mayors and an
article that appeared in the Burnsville SunCurrent attached on pages LTthroughM.
Also enclosed without page number is a copy of a report that was prepared for the
Burnsville Parks & Natural Resource Committee and their City Council. Each Mayorwas
given a copy for their review. The report provides an appendix which includes drawings
of ramp configurations, pictures of certain types of ramps, etc.
W -AIM
Mayor Egan is looking for direction from the City Council relative to the proposed
skateboard park.
PARK BOND REFERENDUM UPDATE
The Director of Parks & Recreation will share an update on the status of the Thursday
special task force that is meeting on the park bond referendum.
OTHER BUSINESS
ON& There are no other business items to be considered at this time.

COMMISSION MEMBERS
FROM: ASSISTANT TO THE CITY ADMINISTRATOR HOHENSTEIN
DATE: APRIL 19, 1996
SUBJECT: JOINT CITY COUNCIL AND COMMISSION MEETING -APRIL 23, 1996
As you are aware, since Peggy's resignation, the City is without a Community
Development Director. As a consequence, City Administrator Hedges has asked that I
help with the coordination and support of the Economic Development Commission. The
Commission will also continue to be staffed by Shannon Tyree and other Planning staff
when appropriate. I would hope and expect that we can provide the assistance you need
and that the Commission can continue its efforts as it sees fit.
The Commission will hold a joint meeting with the City Council on Tuesday, April 23 at
5:00 p.m. to discuss issues outlined at the March Commission meeting. Background
information on those items is provided in the enclosed memo.
The joint meeting with the Council will continue until approximately 6:30 p.m. after which
the Commission will hold a brief meeting of its own in the upper level conference rooms
to follow up on the Council discussions. Because of the joint meeting, there will be no
regular Commission meeting in April. Please note that the next regular meeting will be
on Thursday, May 23.
If you have any questions about Tuesday's meeting or other issues before the
Commission, please do not hesitate to contact Shannon or me.

DATE: APRIL 19, 1996
MEMO
SUBJECT: JOINT CITY COUNCIL/ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
MEETING
The Economic Development Commission has addressed a number of issues since the
Council and Commission last met. Recommendations on individual items have been
forwarded to the Council as they were developed. A number of other issues are
appropriate for discussion at this time. As the Council makes a point of meeting with its
commissions on a regular basis to maintain communications and relationships with their
members, a joint meeting is scheduled for Tuesday evening. Because of the nature of
the first item, it is expected to take slightly more time than the other items to be discussed
at the meeting.
1. Hwy 55/149 Tax Increment Financing District
Background - The completion of the Mendota Bridge reconstruction and the
associated upgrades to Hwy 55 have enhanced the accessibility of the Hwy 55/149
area in Eagan and have opened it to higher levels of traffic to such an extent that
it represents another significant entrance to the City. The area includes some of
the older industrial properties within the City and scattered residential development.
While some of the properties are in good condition, few meet current fire and
accessibility codes, some are in need of renovation and others are blighted and
obsolete. For parts of this area to develop most efficiently and to its highest value,
it will be necessary to assemble certain properties and demolish substandard or
inappropriate uses. To the extent that public participation is necessary for this to
happen, it is more feasible prior to new development than after the fact.
r4o
Tax Increment Redevelopment District - The Hwy 55/149 area meets the criteria for
substandard buildings and lot coverage necessary for the establishment of a
Redevelopment Tax Increment District. Redevelopment Districts offer the greatest
flexibility to cities in that they can be certified for up to twenty-five years and the
state -aid penalties are phased in later and more slowly than with an Economic
Development District. The restriction on the District is that at least ninety percent
of the increment must be spent correcting the conditions that created the District
in the first place, typically blight, obsolete uses or buildings, obsolete infrastructure
and so on. No more than ten percent of the captured increment may be used for
administration, economic development or other qualified expenses.
The District can be included within the existing Northeast Eagan Tax Increment
Program Area. The plan for the area will need to be modified because it did not
contemplate the use of funds for redevelopment purposes. A diagram of the
proposed district and its location within the existing Project Area is attached.
District Findings - The but -for test in the case of such a district need not relate to
a specific development, but rather to the overall substandard conditions. The City
must find that the correction of the substandard conditions would not occur in the
reasonably foreseeable future without the use of the tool. The market may
redevelop parts of the area without assistance, but the comprehensive renovation
of the area - land assembly, elimination of blight, certain improvements - would not
occur without the use of the tool.
U cp oming Activities - If the City wishes to move forward with this Redevelopment
District, it is important to do so this spring. The Airliner and Spruce Motels are
among the blighting conditions that meet the land coverage qualifications for the
District. The owners are interested in seeing these structures demolished this year.
In addition, there is increasing interest in the market for properties in this area and
the development of vacant parcels within the District could serve as a basis for
redevelopment activities elsewhere in the District. In particular, Johnson Controls
has submitted an application for the development of an automotive seat
manufacturing facility within the district and wish to begin construction in early June.
It is advisable to have the district in place before these activities begin.
Commission Findings - At its February meeting, the Economic Development
Commission voted unanimously to recommend that the City Council consider the
formation of a Redevelopment District to foster redevelopment in this area. In
taking this action, the Commission noted that it will permit a more comprehensive
approach to the improvement of the area than would occur without the district, that
private redevelopment would likely be more piece -meal and would take longer and
that the assistance would improve the tax base, development opportunities and
appearance of a gateway to the City.
09
Issues to Discuss: Since the City has used tax increment and other business
financing assistance sparingly in the past, it is important to discuss whether
circumstances support the use of the tool in this area, for these purposes. Unlike
economic development districts, a redevelopment district can be used to correct
substandard or obsolete conditions to allow an area to redevelop to a higher and
better use. Because redevelopment districts are less tied to specific developments,
they need to take into account the needs of the overall district.
Depending upon the Council and Commission discussion and the status of the
Johnson Controls Proposal, it may be necessary to request Council action to direct
preparation of a Tax Increment Plan for the Redevelopment District at Tuesdays
meeting.
2. Follow Up on Business Reach Out Meetings
Over the course of last year, business leaders and the City have collaborated to
sponsor four Business Reach Out meetings around the community. The meetings
were successful in encouraging contact and communication among a number of
interested parties within the City. Council and Commission members attended the
meetings and it would be helpful to discuss their experiences and the effectiveness
of this forum for communication with the business community.
To maintain continuity with the meetings that have occurred to date, the City, in
cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce, has scheduled the next Business
Reach Out meeting for 4:00 p.m. May 22 at City Hall.
Issues to Discuss: Is the Business Reach Out format an effective forum for City
and business communication and should the City continue to commit time and
resources to this effort on an ongoing basis?
3. Executive Call/Business Contacts
In a similar vein, the Commission is proposing that it partner with the Chamber of
Commerce to conduct an Executive Call program. This would offer opportunities
for Commissioners, Chamber members and staff to meet business owners and
managers at their own facilities and discuss issues important to them. It would also
build on the City's other business outreach activities to promote active contact and
communication between business people and Commission members as policy
advisors to the City Council.
Issues to Discuss: Should the City commit itself to a partnership to contact
representatives of the business community directly in this manner?
4. Eagan Economic Development Publications
The Commission has expressed an interest in developing publications which will
enhance communication with our own businesses and present the City to
businesses who might be considering a location in this area. The Commission
proposes to partner with the Convention and Visitors Bureau to develop an
information piece or brochure which would build on the publications the CVB
already produces but with a focus on business location assets over and above the
tourism amenities. A proposed outline and budget for an Eagan Picture Book is
attached as a possible opportunity for cooperation.
Issues to Discuss: Should the City participate in the development of
communications that would target both current and potential businesses? If so,
what resources can be applied to this effort and to what extent should a budget
proposal for continuing these activities be included in the 1997 budget process?
5. Criteria for Financing Assistance
The City of Eagan has traditionally approached financing assistance on a case by
case basis. As a consequence, the Economic Development Commission and staff
are able to give prospects little direction with respect to the appropriateness of
specific applications. There is also little basis on which to base findings on the
qualifications of prospects because specific criteria have not been established.
While it remains essential that the City Council makes all final decisions regarding
financing assistance, the Commission can assist the Council in screening and
directing applicants if the basic expectations of the Council are clarified.
Attached is a memo covering the Commission's discussion and findings relative to
the review of potential Business Loan Guarantees. The report outlines both the
process to be used and the criteria to be considered in developing findings
regarding these applications. It also provides a range of costs associated with
assistance or decisions not to provide assistance.
Issues to Discuss: Should the City be involved in business financing assistance
generally and business loan guarantees in particular as a matter of policy? Should
the City be more inclined toward loan guarantees when the risks and costs are
limited? Can the Commission assist the Council in screening and developing
findings relative to business assistance? Is the process and criteria proposed
appropriate for the analysis of loan guarantees?
6. Reassessment of Costs and Benefits of Dakota County Economic
Development Partnership
The City and the Commission have considered the value and effectiveness of the
Partnership on several occasions in the past. The Commission had previously
recommended that the City participate in the Partnership on a trial basis and that
r1i
the merits of continued participation be reviewed on a regular basis. The Council
accepted this recommendation and the City has participated at a reduced
contribution rate.
At the present time, the City has several years of experience with the Partnership
and the Partnership is in the process of updating its work plan for the future. This
provides an opportunity to assess both the Partnership's activities to date and its
proposed direction for the future. The Partnership's Executive Director, Scott
Beckman, is willing to attend a future Commission meeting to present information
and respond to Commission questions in this regard. Recently, Mr. Beckman
characterized the role of the Partnership as being one of making Dakota County
the most attractive location for a business to locate. He differentiated this from the
Metro East Partnership's role which is to identify prospects who will consider the
area for expansions and relocations.
Issues to Discuss: The City has long supported the concepts of cooperation and
collaboration as means of providing services in a cost effective manner and in
proportion to the City's needs. It is important to determine whether the Partnership
represents an opportunity to do this at a fair price or whether the City's resources
could be better spent in its own activities. A larger and related question is whether
the City sees value in additional efforts to attract business development or not.
Does additional investment or effort translate to more jobs, better jobs, higher tax
base, more economic activity or more timely development than would be the case
without it?
T. Initiatives for Commission Effectiveness
The City's volunteers are a valuable resource. In an effort to make the most of
their efforts, the City offers staff support, resources and information. In recognition
of the efforts they contribute, we often ask commissions what we can do to make
their jobs easier and make their time more effective. An initiative discussed by the
Commission is the potential for child care to be provided for Commission members.
Since commission meetings are often in the early morning and evening when
typical child care options are limited and because meeting length is sometimes
difficult to anticipate, the availability of a convenient option would permit some
members to participate more fully without time pressures or distractions. In offering
this concept, the Commission is also taking its cue from private industry where
initiatives to accommodate family needs is increasingly prevalent.
Issues to Discuss: Should the City consider a mechanism to provide child care
for commissioners during meetings? If so, what options should be considered to
meet this need?

TO: MAYOR EGAN AND CITY COUNCILMEMBERS
FROM: ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION MEMBERS
DATE: APRIL 1, 1996
MEMO
SUBJECT: CITY POLICY ON LOAN GUARANTEES FOR PROJECTS WHICH
RESULT IN BENEFITS TO THE TAXPAYERS OF THE CITY
I J—TeKic1Zt;•111NAD
In December 1995, the City Council reconsidered and approved a request by Register Resale
Corporation for a limited loan guarantee. The Council concluded that the proposal posed
reasonable risk for the City and would ensure retention of a desirable, expanding business
enterprise.
In considering the proposal, the Council debated whether the City should be involved in this type
of financial assistance in any instance, even when financial risk was minimal. Following City Council
review, the Economic Development Commission further discussed the merits of providing limited
financial assistance in the form of loan guarantees. Based on the discussion, the Commission felt
it would be beneficial to bring the matter back to the City Council to further clarify the City's position
on loan guarantees for projects that benefit the taxpayers of the City of Eagan, and to clarify the
process for review of any future loan guarantee proposals.
DISCUSSION
Cities regularly use financial instruments to attract and retain desirable businesses. Loan
guarantees are one such instrument. Others include tax increment financing, grants, and free land.
The Economic Development Commission believes the use of limited loan guarantees, which pose
minimal financial risk, are a useful tool to attract and retain desirable businesses. Even though a
certain amount of overhead is involved in reviewing loan guarantee requests, the City's willingness
to entertain sound proposals promotes a positive business image. Typically, the minimum and
maximum costs of guaranteeing a loan can be readily identified and serve as a useful aid in
considering the request. The attached chart outlines the minimum and maximum costs of loan
guarantees. Also included is an analysis of the property tax payback on the recent loan guaranty
to Register Resale.
The Economic Development Commission believes that business enterprises requesting loan
guarantee assistance shculd be expected to demonstrate that:
O the guarantee results in significant benefits to the residents of the City.
• the guarantee results in minimal financial risk to the City and is reasonable relative to
other viabilities of the City.
• the guarantee is of limited duration.
the business enterprise provides a service that is desirable and consistent with the
business needs of the City.
The criteria outlined above suggest that loan guarantees wound be provided on a case-by-case
basis. The burden would be placed on the business enterprise to demonstrate the benefits to the
City.
If the City Council concurs that loan guarantees In such instances should be considered, then the
process for reviewing such requests must be determined. The Economic Development
Commission recommends that requests first be reviewed by the Commission, in conjunction with
the City Attorney, with a recommendaticn to the City Council. Consistent with the points noted
above, the Commission would consider:
• the financial ability of the business enterprise and the length of time to cover the amount
at risk through increased tax revenue.
• the future prospects of the business enterprise.
• the length of the proposed guarantee and access to collateral in the event of default.
• current financiai position of the City and amount of outstanding contingent liabilities.
• current number of jobs that support households ($x.xx per hour) and new jobs that will
be created as a result of the financing.
• track record of the business, length of time in the City of Eagan, desirability of attracting
or retaining the business, impact on other similar businesses in the City.
• benefits to the City as presented by the business enterprise.
If the City Council believes that loan guarantees should generally not be considered. then the
business community should be informed of this position. Business owners who submit loan
guarantee proposals do so with high hopes For approval. Failure to win approval, especially in a
low risk situation, can result in frustration and contribute to a negative image for the City.
CONCLUSION
The Economic Development Commission recommends that the City Council adopt a position of
providing limited loan guarantees to desirable businesses, if the guarantee provides benefits to the
taxpayers of the City of Eagan and the guarantee results in short-term, minimal financial exposure
to the City. The Commission is not recommending a position on providing other forms of financial
assistance.

ASSISTANT TO THE CITY ADMINISTRATOR HOHENSTEIN
APRIL 19, 1996
SUBJECT: STATUS OF JOHNSON CONTROLS PROJECT
Johnson Controls has submitted a subdivision and conditional use application for a
manufacturing facility on a twenty-seven acre parcel at the south end of the proposed
Redevelopment District. A division of Johnson Controls will use the facility to manufacture
automotive seats for the Ford Assembly Plant in St. Paul. Johnson Controls holds 51
percent of the automotive seat market and it is one of five companies worldwide in this
business. Johnson intends to begin construction in June in order to be open by a 'Ford
deadline of December 1, 1996. The company is also considering sites in Woodbury and
St. Paul.
The 112,000 square foot building will house 175 to 200 employees. Line jobs will range
between $9.50 and 11.50 an hour with benefits of an additional $16.50 an hour. The
facility will produce product on a just -in -time basis with raw materials delivered to the
assembly area directly from trailers in an enclosed loading dock area. The seats go
directly from the floor to a truck which will deliver them to Ford within one-half day of the
order being received. The initial construction has an estimated cost of $2.4 million. The
building has the potential to be expanded by another 28,000 square feet.
If the tax increment district is put in place prior to the construction of Johnson Controls
or some other business, the captured increment can be the basis of the initial phases of
redevelopment in the area. Johnson Controls understands that within a Redevelopment
District, at least 90 percent of the proceeds must be spent to correct the conditions which
justified the creation of the district including:
1) Removal of conflicting land uses (residential structures)
2) Removal of blighted structures
3) Upgrading substandard structures
4) Land assembly
5) Roadway improvements
6) Correcting other substandard conditions
Although it is not the reason for the consideration of a Redevelopment TIF District, it may
be possible that certain qualified redevelopment expenses or infrastructure improvements
could benefit Johnson Controls. The City Council will want to consider the extent to
which the location of this facility in Eagan will encourage the redevelopment activities
necessary for the larger Highway 55/149 area. This could be anticipated among the
redevelopment scenarios which would be included in a Tax Increment Plan.

Dear Councilmembers:
We, the Nlayors of Apple Valley, Burnsville, Eagan and Lakeville, have discussed the possibility
of joining efforts ;o support development of a skateboard park in our communities. Citizens
from each of our communities as well as adjacent communities have been involved, however,
since the genesis of this effort began in Burnsville, we are looking to Burns-, ille to take the lead
in coordinating the joint efforts of our four cities.
Citizens representative of each of our cornnimAties have indicated a need exists for this type of
recreational facility. It seems it would not make sense for each of us to develop such a facility
separately but, rather, we should work together to provide shared facilities and resources toward
its development. The Recreation staff from each of our communities have, in the past,
cooperatively provided programming and opportunities for our citizens. We believe that we can
bind from that expertise and are excited at the prospect of using this joint effort as a. springboard
for our communities to develop other cooperative ventures.

P.3/3
We, as Mayors, are asking that our respective Councils consider entering into a joint powers
agreement (similar to past agreements). This specific agreement would deal with a skateboard
park to be located in Burnsville. We would anticipate that the joint powers agreement would
establish the level of commitment by each city toward the development of a skateboard park.
This commitment would periodically be evaluated and we would need to continuc to monitor and
support the effort appropriately.
We also disotmod the possibility of each community providing additional resources which may
include financial contributions in the neighborhood of $5,000 - $10,000. Prior to cntering into a
formal commitment, we foresee the Parks and Recreation Commissions of each cam amity
evaluating the program and facility to provide recommendations to the City Council for future
support of the facility.
The purpose of this letter is to inform each Council of the thinking and dialogue regarding a
skateboard park that has occurred among the Mayors. We also want to encourage you to
consider this collaborative effort as one in which we can springboard into future collaborative
efforts.
We suggest this be placed on an appropriate agenda for discussion and to provide direction to the
City Administrators in regard to the development of a joint powers agreement and the possible
contributions each city could make.
Thank, you for your consideration.
Sincerely,

Dick Manley, on behalf of the local group working on the concept of a skate facility
updated the Commission on the progress that had been made on the issues raised at the
last Commission meeting regarding the proposed skate facility. The largest concern was
insurancelliability. Two potential sources of insurance have been found. The first source
is the International In-line Skating Association (IISA). The association will certify
instructors who would supervise the facility. The association would then provide
insurance with costs paid either through users membership in the association or through a
day use insurance charge. The coverage would be $2,000,000 aggregate and $1,000,000
per occurrence. The IISA would also certify the design of the facility and provide
identification and use guidelines for different levels of skill. The second source is the
Underwriters association and an application has been submitted on behalf of the skate
facility. No formal action was taken by the Commission.

{ OVERVIEW
1 In late December, 1994, a group of students requested
a meeting:
with
Elizabeth Kautz, Mayor for the City of Burnsville, Dr. James Rickabaugh,
Superintendent of Independent School District 191 and Dr. Richard N.
Manley, President of Manley & Associates to discuss the feasibility of
developing a centralized facility in which they could practice and develop
their skills in skateboarding, inline skating and bicycling. At this and
subsequent meetings, the following goals were established:
* The facility would be designed and developed by individuals participating in
these sports.
* The facility would be built by raising funds and soliciting donations with no
financial support requested from the City of Burnsville.
* Students would utilize the knowledge and resources provided by the City of
Burnsville, School District 191 and the private sector in the development of
the Skate Park.
* A plan would be developed and presented to the City of Burnsville for usage
of city land for the Skate Park development.
With the assistance of an engineer, students designed the Skate Park to
include the requirements of inline skaters, skateboarders and bicyclists.
These designs are currently being reviewed by a certified architect at the
University of I'Vimesota.
* 'The students held rock concerts that raised over $1,700.00. In each case,
they accepted the responsibility for the total operations of the concert from
site .selection and event organization to promotion on the local rock radio
station.
* 'The students made presentations to local selti"ice organizations discussing the
rational for the park and demonstrating their respective skill levels. This
resulted in donations In excess of $2,200.00.
Burnsville Skate Park Proposal Page 1
* The students requested representatives from the communities surrounding
Burnsville to participate in the development of the Park. Accordingly, the
students who participated are from Lakeville, Prior Lake, Apple Valley,
Rosemount and Eagan.
* Individuals from the public and private sector offered their time and expertise
m the development of the park, raising funds and promoting the concept.
* Burnsville Skate Park, Inc., is registered as a Minnesota nonprofit
corporation.
* Based upon the final plan, a private contractor has offered to consider grading
and laying the black top necessary for the park.
* Independent School District 191 will consider allowing the students and
volunteers to use the woodworking facilities to build the various structures.
i In reviewing the above accomplishments, the students demonstrated their
willingness to educate individuals and citizens on the use and purpose of the
park, raise funds to support it, and request expertise and assistance in areas
for which they have no knowledge or experience. This has resulted in the
educational, public and private sectors pooling their knowledge to support
the development of the Burnsville Skate Park.

BURNSVILLE SKATE PARK
1
The design of the Burnsville Skate Park was developed cooperatively by
individuals active in the sport of inline skating, skateboarding and
bicycling. Appendix A, is an illustration of the proposed facility that will
encompass over 10,000 square feet and be located South of the current
inline hockey rink. It will consist of various types of treated wood ramps
that will be challenging to the novice as well as the expert.
g g p
Some of the key features of the Park include:
* Many of the ramps are movable, providing the flexibility and adaptability to
keep individual users interested and involved in their chosen sports.
* All skill levels, from novice to expert, were considered in the development of
the ramp designs.
* The plans are being reviewed by a Professor of Architecture at the University
of Minnesota for structural and safety.
*
Masonite is being used since it is strong, durable and easily replaceable. It is
projected that all masonite materials will be replaced on an annual basis.
* The Parks proposed location would make use of existing parking facilities
and lighting capabilities while keeping the practitioners of the sports in one
location.
* The location provides excellent accessibility for Burnsville residents.
* A design that is able to accommodate 40 -50 participants at any one time.
* The following security and safety considerations are part of the design:
1. The proposed area will be enclosed with an eight foot security fence.
2. The design allows personnel to easily inspect and repair the Park.
3. All ramps will be designed to accepted standards of the sport.
Burnsville Skate Park Proposal Page 4
RISK MANAGEMENT
Ithough numerous risks can be identified for the development of a Skate
oard Park, they usually can be categorized into two basic areas:
1. The exposure presented by youth using a skateboard ramp.
2. The uncontrolled nature of the participants.
Accordingly, to reduce the risk exposure insurance underwriters have
offered the following guidelines: -
* The facility will be fenced, thereby controlling accessibility.
* The Skate Park will be supervised by an adult.
* Competitive activities will not be allowed.
* Ramps will be structurally sound and meet all applicable codes.
* A formal documented maintenance program will be established and followed.
* All entrants dor, if a minor, their parents) will be required to sign a waiver of
liability/hold harmless agreement in favor of the Park and City of Burnsville.
This will be prepared by legal counsel.
* All participants will be required to wear appropriate safety equipment such as
helmets, hand, elbow and knee pads and appropriate footwear.
* All equipment will be inspected prior to entrance into the park.
* Signs will be posted to address park rules and regulations.
l When followed, the above guidelines will greatly reduce the Skate Park's
risk and corresponding exposure.
Burnsville Skate Park Proposal page 5
OPERATIONS
ernance
The Burnsville Skate Park, Inc. is registered in Minnesota as a nonprofit corporation. Its
primary purpose is to act as a governing board made up of parents and youth who are
active in skateboarding, inline skating and bicycling. This group will be responsible for
establishing operational, safety and financial policies for the Skate Park with assistance
and guidance provided by the City of Burnsville.
I Rem
Table I, illustrates the multiple revenue streams that will be developed to support the
` activities of the Skate Park. Discussions with manufacturers and retail operators have
been very supportive. The largest share of the revenue will appropriately come from
I Park users.
Operational Exn nse
The following points were considered in preparing the Skate Park's operational expenses
(Table I):
1
c * The Park would be in operation from May - September at the following times:
May ..................................... 2:00 P.M. - 9:00 P.M.
June - August ........................ 9:00 AM. - 9:00 P.M.
September ............................. 2:00 P.M. - 9:00 P.M.
* Part time salaries will be paid to the adults supervising the park. It is also
expected that volunteer assistance will also be provided.
* Resurfacing of the ramps will occur during the school year and be provided by
students in the high school woodworking class.
* A cellular phone will be purchased and used at the park for emergency purposes
I only.
J * Concessions and rental equipment will be sold at competitive margins.
First aid training will be provided for all attendants.
