Agenda Information Memo
September 18, 1990 City Council Meeting
There are. twenty-one (21) items on the agenda referred to as Consent Items requiring one
(1) motion by the City Council. If the City Council wishes to discuss any of the items in
further detail, those items should be removed from the Consent Agenda and placed under
Additional Items unless the discussion required is brief.
PERSONNEL ITEMS
A. PERSONNEL ITEMS
Item L Water Resources Coordinator --37 applications were received for this newly
created position. After screening of the applications, 17 applicants were sent written
questionnaires which they subsequently returned to the City. From the results of the
rating of the answers to those questionnaires, six applicants were invited to the Eagan
Municipal Center for a written "in -basket" exercise and an interview. The interviews were
conducted by Director of Parks and Recreation Vraa, Director of Public Works Colbert,
Superintendent of Parks VonDeLinde and Assistant to the City Administrator Duffy.. It
is their unanimous recommendation that Rich Brasch be hired as the City's Water
Resources Coordinator, subject to successful completion of the City's physical examination
requirement. Although this position will have a great deal of visibility/contact with the
public, it is not considered either a department head position or assistant department head
position. Therefore, according to the City's hiring procedures, it is not necessary for the
City Council to interview this applicant prior to hiring. Mr. Brasch would begin at step
3 of exempt level J of the City's compensation system (one step credit given for
BacheIor's/Master's degrees and one step credit given for previous experience). Mr.
Brasch's starting date with the City would be December 3, 1990.

I. Request, Funding from Cable Retained Franchise Fees/Law Enforcement Television
Network --The Police Department has reviewed information and tapes concerning the Law

The Police Department and Cable Coordinator have identified retained cable franchise
fees as a possible funding source for this request. Under the Joint Powers Agreement for
the Burnsville/Eagan Cable Communications Commission, the 'Cities are committed to
using this money for "cable -related" equipment and activities. The individual City Councils
retain the authority to make findings of cable -relatedness for individual City activities. In
light of the satellite/cable technology utilized in the delivery of this service, the Council

SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR _FUNDING FROM THE CABLE RETAINED FRANCHISE
FEES FOR THE LAW ENFORCEMENT TELEVISION NETWORK
The Law Enforcement Television Network System is a satellite system
designed to provide Law Enforcement Training to Police Departments
in the United States.
The Eagan Police Department has reviewed a number of tapes provided
by the Law Enforcement Television Network (L.E.T.N.) and feel the
service would be an asset to the Police Department. The Police
Training Committee especially liked the exposure to a broader base
of training and the variety of topics which include, but.are not
limited to patrol operations, investigation and police management.
Attached is a memorandum to me from Mike Reardon who has reviewed
this proposal for us. As a result of, review by the Cable
Coordinator and the Eagan Police Department, I am requesting
$488/month which is the fee for this service. The Police
Department will closely monitor the use of this service and, if it
is found to not be beneficial to the City of Eagan, we will
discontinue it.

MEMO TO: POLICE CHIEF PAT GEAGAN
FROM: CABLE COORDINATOR REARDON
DATE: AUGUST 31 1990 1�4
SUBJECT: LAW ENFORCEMENT TELEVISION NETWORK
Backcrround
As you are aware, over the last several monthsI have had
,
conversations with Burnsville and Eagan Police Departments in
regard to the possible acquisition of the Law Enforcement
Television Network. Both departments have expressed an interest
in obtaining the services provided by the network. It was first
thought by the departments that the acquisition of the network's
services could be coordinated and funded through the Burnsville/
Eagan Cable Commission, with the reception of the network's signal
received at Cable TV North Central's head -end facility. However,
this option is not practicable nor feasible as:
are a
limited number of cable channels available2) 1)There network's
services would require a separate satellite dish and the space is
limited at the head -end site, and 3) For security reasons, it is
not advisable that the network's services be made available -to the
general public, including -employees of CTVNC.
According to my conversations with Eagan Lieutenant John Stevenson
and Burnsville Police Officer Randy Kopitzke, LETN would provide
individual satellite reception dishes at both police department
locations in the two Cities. The network would also supply the
necessary converters, cables and hardware for hook-up to 'the
service. Each individual City would be responsible for a
television and VCR deck. It is my understanding the network would
install the dish, installation charge waived,
on the
rooftop of the buildings. It is also my understa dingably the current
fee for the service is $488 per month.

MEMORANDUM
TO: TOM HEDGES, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
FROM: KEN VRAA, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION
DATE: SEPTEMBER 7, 1990
RE: CHANGE ORDER #1
IMPROVEMENT CONTRACT 89-17
NORTHVIEW PARKING LOT IMPROVEMENT
I. C. 89-17 includes improvements to Northview Athletic Park. The scope of work consists
of parking lot construction, trailway construction, storm sewer installation and turf
establishment.
The contract was awarded in October of 1989. Late fall of 1989 the Contractor
successfully completed all storm sewer installation. No work occurred during the winter.
Work was slow in the Spring of 1990 due to an unusually wet season. The Contractor at
this time began excavation for the curb implementation and preparation of the existing
aggregate parking lot surface. During the aggregate preparation, City Inspection Staff
noticed surface deflection. This deflection exceeded acceptable structural tolerances for
parking lot construction. City Staff instructed the Contractor to remove the suspect soil
allowing for a visual inspection. The soils removed were a moist, mottled, plastic silty clay.
The soil characteristic was determined non-structural providing a poor subgrade for a
parking lot application. The Contractor was instructed to backfill with a MnDOT 3149
Granular Borrow and compact resulting in a structural subgrade. As the aggregate
preparation work continued, indications of additional non-structural soils in the westerly
parking lot became evident by surface deflection and rutting. The scope of the poor soils
area increased with each day of work. City Inspection Staff worked daily with the
Contractor defining poor soil limits and depth of removal. This subsurface correction,
although necessary, was not specifically defined within the Contract Documents and
therefore, a cost for this work would need to be negotiated between the City and the
Contractor.
According to MnDOT 1903 which specifies "Compensation for increased or decreased
quantities", the City would be responsible for paying 10% beyond the contractual volume
of common excavation at the pending contractual amount of $6.00 a cubic yard.
Improvement Contract 89-17
September 7, 1990
Page 2
Therefore, the City would be responsible for paying for an additional 57.5 cubic yards at
$6.00. The remaining poor soil removal overage, which totals 4922.5 cubic yards, would
be based on a negotiated value. City Staff met with the Contractor and agreed to terms
reducing the unit value from $6.00 to $3.80 per cubic yard for this overage. The Staff
concludes that the negotiated $3.80 unit value is a fair amount based on the construction
methodology implemented and cost comparisons to other public contracts.
Attached to this memorandum is a copy of Change Order #1. The Common Excavation
item reflects the removal of the poor soils. The Common Borrow item covers the import
and placement of off-site structural fill. The additional aggregate base is a result of
contamination of this material due to the removal of subsurface soils within the parking
lot. Trucking costs incurred are for the export of the poor soils to an off-site dump
location.
With hindsight, I conclude that additional geotechnical information would have indicated
these poor soils and the contract could have been modified to include the subsurface
correction. Three eight -foot borings were taken by Allied Test Drilling within the parking
lot in April of 1987. The results of the borings indicated no problem soils. The borings
unfortunately were located outside of the non-structural soil limits. Typically 3 borings
would provide an adequate sampling, but Eagan's glacial moraine soils as found in past
projects, will on occasion result in quick soil type transitions without any conceivable
consistency.
City Staff requests City Council approval of Change Order #1 for Improvement Contract
89-17 in the amount of $54,708.78.

sewer facilities from the detention basins to the intersection of Short Line and
Pennsylvania Avenue. These plans have now been completed and are being presented to
the City Council for authorization to advertise for competitive bids. Every property owner
affected by construction will be contacted during the next 30 days and asked to consent
to this work through the execution of a "Right -of -Entry" agreement. Also, significant
negotiations will take place with the developer pertaining to his cost participation. The

FEASIBILITY REPORT AND ESTIMATE COST
THE WOODLANDS NORTH
PROJECT 596R
SCOPE
This project provides for the construction of sanitary sewer,
watermain, storm sewer, streets and street lights to serve the
duplex and single family homes of The Woodlands North. These are
72 duplex style homes located in the southwest corner of Rost Road
and Elrene Road. Twelve single family homes will be located along
two cul-de-sacs connecting to Elrene Road and abutting the
Woodlands Addition and Windtree Addition to the south. Refer to
Figure Number 1 for a general layout of the project location.
FEASIBILITY AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This project is feasible from an engineering standpoint and is in
compliance with the Master Street Plan, the Comprehensive Sewer
Policy Plan, Water Supply and Distribution Plan, the Comprehensive
Storm Water Management Plan and Water Quality Management Plan for
the City of Eagan. The project as outlined herein can best be
carried out as one contract or combined with a similar type project
to be constructed at the same time.
DISCUSSION
The following is a discussion of how utilities, streets and street
lights will be provided to service the areas. The preliminary
layout for the steets was provided by the developer with the
preliminary plat submittal.
A. Sanitary Sewer - Sanitary sewer to serve the duplex homes
abutting Rost Road will be provided by 8" diameter PVC sewer
laterals that connect to the proposed 8" sanitary sewer stubs
at the south right-of-way of Rost Road constructed as part of
Project 589, Elrene and Rost Road Streets & Utilities.
Sanitary sewer service for the two single-family cul-de-sacs
will be provided by 8" PVC laterals that connect to the
proposed stubs constructed as part of Project 589.
S�
s
It is also proposed to extend an 8" sanitary sewer in Trails
End Road from the proposed stub constructed as part of Project
589. The sanitary sewer in Trails End Road would be provided
to the south plat line of the duplex area of the proposed
Woodlands North development. Five of the duplex units would
be served by the sanitary sewer on Trails End Road.
Preliminary locations for the sanitary sewer lines are shown
on Figures 2 and 3.
Sanitary sewer to serve the duplex area and the single-family
area of the Woodlands North development will connect to an
existing 12" trunk sanitary sewer in Mike Collins Drive. The
12" trunk sanitary sewer was designed to accommodate flows
from these areas.
The 1988 Comprehensive Sewer Policy Plan estimated that the
Woodlands North area would contain 37 +/- acres of R-4,
Multiple Zoning, along Elrene Road; and 21 +/- acres of D-1,
Single Family Residential area. The preliminary plat that was
approved by the City Council on June 5., 1990, contains 15
acres of D-1, Single Family Residential; 17 acres of D -II,
Mixed Residential (0-6 units per acre); and 25 acres of D -III,
Mixed Residential (0-12 units per acre), for the future
apartment area. Based on the average wastewater flows from
the 1988 Comprehensive Plan, the Woodlands North Development
will have less of an impact on the sanitary sewer system than
the typical development would have produced for this area.
Previous sanitary sewer assessments to this area include;
Lateral Benefit Sanitary Sewer Trunk - Project 58
Lateral Benefit Sanitary Sewer Trunk - Project 525
Sanitary Sewer Trunk - Project 58
Some of the parcels within this project will have additional
costs assessed against them as part of proposed Project 589.
B. Water Main - As part of this project,
construct grater main to serve the duplex
Road. The water main will loop through the
road and connect to existing 6" water main
constructed as part of Project 589. There
water main connection from the water main o

It is also proposed to extend an 8" water main in Trails End
Road from the proposed stub constructed as part of Project
589. The water main in Trails End Road would be provided to
the south plat line of the duplex area of Woodlands North.
sc.
Water main for the two single-family cul-de-sacs that connect
to Elrene Road shall be by 6" water main that connects to
water main stubs constructed as part of Project 589.
Preliminary locations for the water main lines are shown on
Figures 2 and 3.
The water main for the Woodlands North development is located
in the intermediate level pressure zone and will experience
static pressure of approximately 75 p.s.i.
Previous assessments to this area for water main include:
Water Trunk - Project 58
Lateral Benefit Water Trunk - Project 58
Some of the parcels within this project will may have
additional costs assessed against them as part of proposed
Project 589.
C. SERVICES - Sanitary sewer and water main services will be
constructed to a point 15 feet beyond the property line.
Sanitary sewer service lines shall be 4" diameter and water
service lines shall be 1" diameter. Each unit of the duplex
homes shall have a separate sewer and water service.
D. STORM SEWER - Approximately 200 feet of the northerly ends of
the loop road through proposed Blocks 3 and 4 along with the
cul-de-sac abutting Kost Road shall drain into catch basins
constructed as part of Project 589. The remainder of the
storm sewer system for the duplex area shall drain to proposed
Pond A, a storm water pond at the southwest corner of Block
3.
The storm water pond is not shown on the City's Storm Water
Management Plan but is needed to improve water quality and to
reduce flow to an overburdened 33" storm sewer line located
in the Wescott Hills Revised 3rd Addition. An outlet for Pond
A is proposed to be provided with this project along Trails
End Road. Also, storm sewer to drain Trails End Road at the
south end of the improved street is also being proposed.
Preliminary locations for the storm sewer system to serve the
duplex area are shown on Figure #4.
The duplex area of the Woodlands North development is located
in District E of the City's Storm Water Management Plan.
Figure 5 shows a layout of the storm sewer drainage system,
including proposed and future ponds and drainage boundaries
for the southern portion of District E. The four ponds
identified as Ponds A, B, C, and D have drainage areas well
defined by the local topography. The ponds will drain to the
33" storm sewer line located in the Wescott Hills Revised 3rd
57
Addition which drains to waterbodies classified as nutrient
traps and are designated as Ponds EP -2 and EP -1. All four
ponds will only need to be required to meet the rrinirum water
quality criteria since the downstream waterbodies are
classified as nutrient traps. The four ponds shall be
designed to have a minimum size of 0.4 acres and an average
depth of 4 feet in order to obtain an efficient performance
for the treatment and detention of nutrients.
Listed below are the specifics for each of the ponding areas:
• to be deteryr,ined When the seas develop
•6 cumulative flow that includes outflow fren.. ir_ej D
A minimal amount of storm sewer construction will be required
with this project to serve the two cul-de-sacs in the single-
family residential portion of the Woodlands North development.
Two other City projects will be providing the trunk and
lateral storm sewer system to serve the two cul-de-sacs. City
Project 585, West Publishing 3rd Addition, is proposed to
construct a trunk storm sewer line from Pond JP -16 to Pond JP -
14. The alignment of the storm sewer line is proposed to
follow the cul-de-sac in Block 2 so only catch basins and
catch basin leads will be needed to drain this cul-de-sac.
Preliminary lcoations for the storm sewer system to serve the
single-family area of the Woodlands North are shown on Figure
6.
Storm sewer in the cul-de-sac in Block 1 shall pick up the
street run-off and connect to a storm sewer stub that will be
provided with Project 589.
The developer of the Woodlands North has requested that the
City raise the normal water level of Ponds JP -14 and JP -33 to

A minimal amount of storm sewer construction will be required
with this project to serve the two cul-de-sacs in the single-
family residential portion of the Woodlands North development.
Two other City projects will be providing the trunk and
lateral storm sewer system to serve the two cul-de-sacs. City
Project 585, West Publishing 3rd Addition, is proposed to
construct a trunk storm sewer line from Pond JP -16 to Pond JP -
14. The alignment of the storm sewer line is proposed to
follow the cul-de-sac in Block 2 so only catch basins and
catch basin leads will be needed to drain this cul-de-sac.
Preliminary lcoations for the storm sewer system to serve the
single-family area of the Woodlands North are shown on Figure
6.
Storm sewer in the cul-de-sac in Block 1 shall pick up the
street run-off and connect to a storm sewer stub that will be
provided with Project 589.
The developer of the Woodlands North has requested that the
City raise the normal water level of Ponds JP -14 and JP -33 to
improve water quality and the aesthetics of the ponds. Based
on the vegetation and trees surrounding the ponds, the
developer would prefer that the NWL be set at elevation 837.0.
The outlets for the two ponds would have to be reconstructed
and all trees below the NWL would need to be removed.
Previous assessments to this area for storm sewer include:
Storm Water Trunk - Project 525
Storm Sewer Trunk Upgrade - Project 525
Some of the parcels within this project will have additional
costs assessed against them as part of proposed Project 589.
E. STREET - The construction of the loop road through the duplex
home area along with Trails End Road construction shall be for
28' wide bituminous streets. The three cul-de-sacs in the
duplex home area (Blocks 3 & 4) as well as the two cul-de-sacs
for the single family home area (Blocks 1 & 2) shall also be
constructed 28' wide. All streets shall be constructed to a
7 ton residential design thickness based on the existing soil
conditions.
The proposed street construction shall include aggregate base,
bituminous surfacing, concrete curb and gutter and restoration
of boulevards. Landscaping of cul-de-sac islands shall be by
others.

Dear Mayor and City Council Members,
We were informed of project 596R's proposed assessments for STREET
AND UTILITY IMPROVEMENTS IN A MEETING WITH Michael Foertsch, Assistant
City Engineer on Monday, September 10. The assessments levied on us
would be $25,807.19. This amount plus interest would be due in
installments over a five year period. The financial strain this
would present to us would drain us monetarily to the point we would
be forced to sell our home and property.
The purpose of the proposed road and utility improvements is to
service the Engstrom Company's townhome development, project 596R.
This improvement would not benefit us, nor is it welcome. We put a
well and septic system in only five years ago when we built our
home. We would have to run an additional 400 feet of service to
get hook-up if we did want it, an impractical plan at best.
We would be willing to present a full financial disclosure to the
City Council if it would have an effect on your decision. The
monthly payments on our $25,807.19 assessment at 8% interest would
be approximately $465.00 a month. We now operate on a well -
disciplined household budget with two preschool children and
another due in March. The additional burden of $465.00 per month
coupled with the rise in the property tax base of our property
would leave us with the unhappy alternative of putting our home on
the market.' We feel there is questionable chance of receiving an
acceptable offer on our property considering it's currently a
"buyer's market", we would be on a time restriction and we would be
trying to recoup the assessed $25,807.19 paid for street and
utility improvements. Considering the above, we would not qualify
to refinance our mortgage.
We would like to suggest that the following alternatives be
considered:
Assessments be charged to Engstrom and Company. This
would add approximately only $500.00 to the cost of
each of his 76 townhome units.
OR
Assessments be charged back to the City of Eagan.
OR
Improvements would be.unnecessary if Engstrom goes
back to his origional plan and moves the six.units
located on Trails End Road, eliminating the need for
said improvements_
We can't bear the $25,807.19+ cost of the proposed street and
utility improvements. Hopefully, you will find a satisfactory
sclution without uprooting our family. Continuing with this action
may° be defined as legal, but we don't understand how it could be
condoned as ethical.
j� Sincerely,
v _

RECEIVE BIDSIAWARD CONTRACT (GALA ?IIE CLIFF PLAZA 21`'D ADDN)
A. Contract 90-01, Receive Bids/Award Contract (Galaxie Cliff Plaza 2nd Addition -
Streets & Utilities) --At 10:00 a.m., on Friday, August 31, 1990, formal bids were received
for the installation of streets a utilities to service the proposed Galaxie Cliff Plaza 2nd
Addition. Enclosed on page � a tabulation of the bids received with a comparison
of the low bid to the estimate contained in the feasibility report presented at the public
hearing held on August 7, 1990. On September 4, the Council continued consideration
of this item due to the fact that the final plat for this development must be approved
before the Council can formally approve a contract. Therefore, if the final plat is not
approved under previous Council action on this agenda, this contract consideration will
have to be continued or the bids rejected.
Also, as a part of this contract, detailed plans were prepared to provide for the additional
access from Fire Station No. 5 to the internal street, Plaza Drive. While the construction
of this fire station driveway access is a condition of the final plat approval and the
developer's responsibility, the developer is requesting compensation for land acquisition
and/or damages to the remaining parcel which has limited ability to develop, if at all. The
various alternates for the driveway access were reviewed with the affected neighbors at a
neighborhood meetingeld 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday, September 12, at Fire Station No.
5. Enclosed on pagl os a memo summarizing the meeting, the consensus of the
neighborhood and tst of -land acquisition associated with various alternatives.
Enclosed on pages and are copies of the various alternatives. These costs
are summarized as fo ows:

various aspects of construction and land acquisition for whichever alternate is subsequently
approved by Council action.

RE: NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING
GALAXIE CLIFF PLAZA 2ND ADDITION
BACKGROUND: On Wednesday, September 12, the neighborhood meeting
was held at fire station #5 along Galaxie Avenue to discuss
driveway location alternatives for Fire Station #5.
The Galaxie Cliff Planned Development approved in 1988 required
that Plaza Drive line up with West Wind Trail on the east side of
Galaxie Avenue. That action severed the applicant's property
(Outlot D) creating the small three-quarter acre parcel. With the
setbacks and Limited Business zoning, it makes this area rather
difficult to develop. The applicant, Mr. Bill Soules, has offered
to sell the property to the City for $78,400 or at a rate of $2.40
per sq. ft. (32,670 sq. ft. x $2.40 = $78,400) . Mr. Soules is not
interested in selling only a portion of the Outlot. His offer is
to sell it to the City and the City can develop it in any way it
desires.
Mr. Soules has been marketing the entire property at a rate of
$3.50 per sq. ft. with assessments paid. He claims they can
demonstrate that value based on current and past transactions.
During the course of meetings between staff and Mr. Soules, he has
agreed to deduct all site -related costs in order to arrive at a
price that excludes assessments and parks dedication fees, etc.
It was stated at a previous Council meeting that he would be
willing to transfer title of the property based on no down payment,
a credit for levied and contemplated assessments, a credit for the
estimated park land dedication fees on the remainder of the entire
tract and the balance payable in five annual installments with
interest at commercial bank rates on unpaid balances. Mr. Soules
felt this was the best approach if the City were to acquire the
land since it would require no "out of pocket" expenses to the
City. At the neighborhood meeting, Mr. Soules again stated that
this offer still stands.
NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING: In attendance were Ken Southorn, Mike
Foertsch, Bill Soules, Greg Maloney, George Schenk, four Eagan fire
fighters, and myself. The issue with the neighbors deals with
where the fire station driveway should ultimately connect to 1)
Galaxie Avenue in its present location 2) directly to Plaza Drive
or 3) both. The neighbors have been concerned that if both
connections are allowed, it would serve as a shortcut to the Plaza
Drive/Galaxie Avenue intersection, thus creating noise and safety
problems. The neighbors are now in agreement that they would
desire one driveway connection to Plaza Drive with the existing
drive on old Galaxie Avenue, completely removed and sodded (see
exhibit). The plan shown would have all the car traffic on the
south side of the median with outbound fire trucks on the north
only. The wide south side would allow the return of the fire
trucks so they wouldn't have to back into the station from Plaza
Drive. Mr. Soules again stated that he felt the cost of the
driveway improvements were not his responsibility.
If you would like additional information regarding this
neighborhood meeting, please advise.

B. Contract 90-I1, Receive Bids/Award Contract (Park Center Addition & Rusten Road -
Streets & Utilities) --On September 4, the City Council received bids for the above -
referenced contract and continued consideration of its contract award until September 18
due to the fact that the final plat for the Park Center Addition was not ready for formal
Council approval. The final plat for Park Center Addition must be approved by formal
Council action previously on this agenda before the Council contractuall obligates the City
to install utilities for the Park Center Addition. Enclosed on page is a tabulation
of the bids received with a comparison of the low bid for each project to the estimated
contained in the feasibility report presented at their respective public hearings. While bids
were previously solicited for the improvement of Rusten Road to service the Thomas G.
Slater Addition, they were rejected at the developer's request due to it exceeding the
feasibility report. The recent bids received were reviewed with the developer and found
to be acceptable. Subsequently, if the final plat for the Park Center Addition is approved
earlier on the agenda, it would be appropriate for the Council to formally award this
contract.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To receive the bids and award

Located in the NW Corner of the Intersection of Highway 77 and Diffley Road in the SW
Quarter of Section 19 --The Advisory Planning Commission considered a rezoning and
comprehensive guide plan amendment for the Diffley/Cedar Planned Development on two
occasions. The item was originally taken up by the APC at its January 23, 1990 meeting
and continued to the February 22, 1990 meeting, at which time it was recommended for
approval. The item was heard by the City Council at its March 6, 1990 meeting, at which
time it was redirected to the APC for additional consideration of City Council concerns.
Those concerns are outlined in a memorandum from City Planner Sturm to the Advisory
Planning Commission dated March 27, 1990 which is enclosed on page. The APC
again heard this matter at its March 27, 1990 meeting and, based upon the Council
concerns, an action to reaffirm their previous approval of this item failed.
The item was again heard by the City Council at its May 1, 1990 meeting. The developer
indicated that no changes had been made to the original submission heard by the Planning
Commission at its January 23 and February 22 meetings. Following discussion of the
project and the context of Council concerns, the Council acted to direct staff to work with
the developer in the formulation of a development agreement to address Council concerns
in the areas of quality, phasing and composition of the project. A copy of the planne

PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT

ADVISORY PLAir"lrING COXMI88IOI2i XZXBERS
FROM: JIM BTURM, 'CITY PL9 "ER
DXTE: TEBRUARY 15, 1990
RE: DIFFLEY/CEDAR PLJYWED DrVZLOPXZNT
At the January 23 Advisory Planning Commission meeting, this item
was continued at the applicant's request prior to action by the
Corrission so they could review the concerns expressed that night
and to see if possible modifications to the site plan could be
rade.
Since that time, the following changes have occurred:
The retail square footage has been reduced from 73,000
sq. ft. to 41,000 sq. ft. which includes a 28,000 sq. ft.
retail center and two free-standing pads containing 5,000
and e,000 sq. ft., respectively.
For cerpariscn purposes, the Eagan Convenience Center along
D,jckwcod Drive containing the Dairy Queen is approximately 18,000
sq. ft. and ThoRas Lake Center consists of approximately 43,000 sq.
ft. in the retail building alone (not including any free-standing
pads.)
The tctel nurber of residential units has been lowered by 17% from
494 to 412. The previous proposal had two 140 unit apartment
clusters. The revised plan has one 108 unit apartment grouping.
The overall density has been reduced from 15.8 units/acre to 11.9
units/acre. The CcrYLission also requested further review of the
relccation of the Cable Tv/North Central facility. The applicants
have stated their desire to accomplish this and another exhibit has
been attached showing how the site would ultimately be designed if
the relocation took place. The original staff report has been
attached and all conditions still apply.

EXISTING SO2<'ING: PD (PLANNED DEPELOPXZNT)
DATE 0? PUBLIC ZZARING: JANUARY 23, 1990
DATE 07 REPORT: .TA MARY 17j, 1990
CONPILED BY: C'.O]CKMTY Dr n LOPXZ)%T DEPARTMENT
APPLICATI02r 6L'lOQUY: Separate applications have been submit
revesting a CompreLeasive Guide Plan Amendment and a Rezoning
the existing Splashland Planned Development to allow a nixed
irulti-fa- ly and retail development on approximately 41 acres along
the north side of Diffley Road and west of Cedar Avenue. The
City's Land Use Plan designates this area as CPD (Comnercial
Planned Developnent).
SACKGROt'n: This area was rezoned in 3.982 from GB (General
Business) to the Bluffview Planned Development consisting of 17
acres, allowing a motel/hotel, offices, and other GB uses.
However, nothing was constructed and in 1985 the area was increased
to ap;rcximately 33 acres and the Splashland Planned Development
and Prelininary Plat were approved. Splashland mould have been a
water there park, but the Final Plat was never completed. The
current- applicants wanted to include the Cable TV North Central
site, but over the past months they have been unable to reach an
agreezent on the terms and the relocation of the existing facility.
T.;e intent was to move the studios into the proposed retail center
and re=odel the building for clubhouse purposes. The applicants
vo;:ld still like to acquire the site in the future if negotiations
car, be worked out. This revised site plan has reduced the retail
cozponent fro= 100,000 sq. ft. to 73,500 sq. ft., including a
55,000 sq. ft. retail center with three free-standing pads
consisting of 71500, 6,500, and 41500 sq. ft. building pads.
There are three building styles proposed in the residential area,
instead of the two originally shourn. They include: a towrnhouse
style unit, smaller three story type apartment building with
private entrances, and the typical *levator type apartment
building. The applicant feels that a nixed use, multi -family and
neighbcrhood cormercial development is an appropriate use of the
:site because it can be developed as an identifiable community with
strong physical boundaries. The commercial development along
Diffley Road will reinforce its image as a commercial street and
the residential development will take advantage of the views
towards the Minnesota River.
aid
t
EZIETING CONDITIONS: The site is highly visible as one enters
Eagan from the north. The applicant is proposing to take advantage
of the panoramic views towards the Minnesota River where the
vertical distance between this site and the river is over 100 ft.
The land is open grassland, falling gradually towards the northeast
property lines where it then falls dramatically. -adjacent land
uses are: the Superamerica store to the west, E-2 Mini -storage to
the north, Cedar avenue to the east, and Metcalf Jr. High School
to the south. Enron Gas Company is also along the northeast corner
of this site.
ZKRQS GAS COY.P.ANY: Enron's major concern was having direct access
to their facility, as well as the buried gas lines on the site.
Enron, Minnegasco, MSP, and Peoples Natural Gas are users of this
facility. This facility is NSP's main feeder to St. maul and
Minnegasco's to the north. The facility is a point of exchange
where gas supplied by Enron is distributed into local utility
pipelines. Gas pressure is also reduced from the trunk lines to
the local lines. Enron typically generates two to three trips to
the site a week, along with monthly inspections of the utility
easements. Service -type vehicles are smaller trucks and pickups;
rig vehicles are only needed in the event of an emergency or
necessary major repair. If there was a gas leak, there would be
little or no chance of an explosion since gas is lighter than air
an! it would naturally dissipate. The Moundsview pipeline fire a
couple of years ago was a gasoline fire.
PR:%TECT BOOPE: The site plan shows 31.1 acres of housing with the
fcllowing breakdown:
2 140 unit apartment courts 280 units
2 90,000 S 60,000 unit clusters 156 units
of smaller style apartments
48 unit rental townhouses 48 units
Total Units: 484 units
This adds up to 15.6 units per gross acre. The retail area with
a total building sq`jare footage of 73,500 sq. ft. on ten acres has
a gross lot coverage under 174. Limited Business and Neighborhood
Business zoning districts allow 204 coverage, with other districts
either 30 or 35%. The applicant feels that the approximately
4, Dao, 000 sq. ft. Hall Of America in Bloomington will be a major
contributor to the development of this site since it will employ
approximately 5,000 people.
The residential component will consist of three housing types: an
eight unit townhouse style building vith attached garages, a
rowhouse style building with individual entries and underground
parking, and a three story apartment building with elevators and
heated underground parking. In addition, a 5,000 sq. ft. clubhouse
will be constructed at the entry to the residential development.
119
The clubhouse will be the visual focal point for the development.
It will feature steeply pitched roofs, tall interior volumes, and
expansive windows to take advantage of views to the west and north.
It will house the sanagement and leasing offices, party room,
recreational amenities, and outdoor swisr.=ing pool overlooking the
river valley.
The eight unit townhouse style buildings with attached garages Will
feature stepped roof massing ranging from one story over the end
garages to three stories at the center. Each unit will have on -
grade entries and each building will have one and two story
dwelling units ranging in size from 1,030 sq. ft. to 1,350 sq. ft.
The three story rowhouse building is unique to the Minneapolis -St.
Paul market. It offers the identity and feel of townhouse
buildings by having individual on -grade entries for each unit. A
primary benefit of this plan is the development of courtyards that
will feature entry doors and bay windows and that will express the
sraller scale of individual units. The underground parking will
accomodate 1-1/2 cars per dwelling unit, which will allow snore
landscaping in the entry courts.
The elevator apartment homes with underground parking are grouped
in two neig}:bcrhoods, one at the north end of the site with views
over the river valley, and one at the southeast edge of the site
visible frcm the stain entrance. The shape of these buildings
uaxiaize views and encloses landscaped courtyards. Unit sizes will
range frc= studios, 815 sq. ft. one bedrooms, to 1,200 sq. ft. two
be :roc= units.
The architectural treatment will emphasize traditional elements
including steep pitched roofs, bay windows, covered balconies, and
enc'_osed screen porches.. The townhouse style buildings will be
rassed and detailed as a large country house with prominent
chimneys. The rowhouse building will feature articulated entries
and facades, and the elevator apartment homes will eaphasize a
conte=perary architecture, and will develop a strong and profile
of paired chimneys visible from the valley and Cedar Avenue bridge.
The primary exterior materials will be brick, stucco and horizontal
lap siding.
PA0~'Br: TZAX: Pfister Architects of Minneapolis are the project
designers. They were the architects for the Thomas Lake Pointe
apartrents along Thomas lAke Road. 'They also did the design work
for the Residences at Edinborough in Brooklyn Park, the Bristol
Apartments in Bloomington and the exterior of the Timberwolves
arena presently under construction in Minneapolis. The developer,
E.J. Plesko i lLssociates/Roldt Properties of St. Louis Park had
developed major projects throughout the country and locally have
co=pleted a 227 -unit Radisson/Ridgedale Hotel in Minnetonka, Market
Plaza Retail Center and Tower in Richfield consisting of a 266 -unit
hi5hrise located at West 66th Street and Lyndale Avenue and
Pa:kshore Place, a 13 -story 207 -unit, senior care center near
Byerly's off Highway 200 in St. Louis Park.
RARING/DF Ih'AGL R06I4N N"Rd : k1though no grading, drainage
and erosion control plan was submitted at this time with this
application, the development in concept proposes a single area
which may potentially store storm water runoff. The existing
drainage over the proposed development is generally northeasterly
toward Cedar Avenue. The City's Comprehensive Storm Sewer Plan
Shows this area tributary to Pond AP -6. Pond AP -6 is a designated
ponding area in the City's Comprehensive Storm Sewer Plan. Pond
AP -6 is located north of the E -Z Mini Storage Facility and
southerly of the Cedar Avenue/T.B. 13 interchange.
JLn area of increasing sensitivity for the City is the impact of
development on downstream waterbodies receiving site generated
storm water runoff. No water quality analysis was performed at
this point but the development will be subject to a detailed
analysis and subsequent requirements when the development reaches
the platting stages of development.
Lrl"MTIEF: Sanitary sewer service of sufficient depth and capacity
to provide service to the proposed development is readily available
alma the westerly side of the property. No sanitary sewer trunk
izrrove=ents are required as a result of the proposed development.
A 12" trunk water main service has been provided to the proposed
development in two locations. With the construction of the Cedar
Aven-e Freeway, a 12" trunk water main was stubbed to the
deve4opzent's northeasterly corner. A 12" trunk water main also
exists along the westerly and northwesterly boundaries of the
property beginning at Diffley Road and extending northerly and
nartheasterly. The City's Water Supply 6 Distribution Plan
identifies the need for the connection of the existing 12" trunk
water main stubbed to the easterly property line during the
construction of the Cedar Avenue Freeway and connecting this 12"
sttit to the existing 12" line at the corner of Diffley Road and Old
Fic}way 13. Tris 12" trunk water main connection connects the
City's inter=mediate pressure zone with the low pressure zone. The
connection of the two different pressure zones will require the
installation of a pressure reducing station. The installation of
the pressure reducing station is a responsibility of the City's
Water Supply Trunk Fund as is the oversizing costs associated with
the 12" trunk water main required through this site.
;ETA-VITS/A.-CE66 CIRCrLATION: Street widths, easement requirements
and rig::t-of-way widths will be addressed in detail as a part of
the final platting of the proposed development.

MEMORANDUM
TO: TOM HEDGES, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
DALE RUNKLE, COANfUIrM DEVELOPMENT DIRECT(
FROM: JD4 STURM, CITY PIANfi-ER
DATE: APRIL 27, 1990
RE: DY=Y/CEDAR PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
The foBowing is a chronology of the proposed Diffley!Cedar Planned Devel
on 41 acres in the northwest corner of the intersection of Cedar Avenue ani ..,�,. , L%VQW.
This site includes the existing 33 acre Splashland Planned Development and 11 acres of
existing Lig..1 Industrial zoned property. This area was rezoned in 1982 from GB (General
Business) to the Blu View Planned Development consisting of 17 acres, allowing a
hoteltnotel, offices, and other GB uses. However, nothing was constructed and in 1985,
the area was increased to approximately 33 acres and the Splashland Planned
Develorment and Preliminary Plat were approved. Splashland would have been a water
then,e park, but the Final Plat was never completed.
Ir: January 1990, a public hearing was held by the Advisory Planning Commission with'the
applicant requesting a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment and a Planned
Development Amendment to alJow a mixed-use P.D. consisting of 73,500 sq. ft. of retail
space (including three small pad locations) and 484 multi -family housing units. Three
housing building styles were proposed ... the typical three story type building, a rowhouse
style v6 t�, underg-ound parking, and townhouse scale units. They
Units, respectively. had 280, 156, and 48
its
The gross density was 15.06 units per acre and the retail lot coverage vi -as 17%. Limited
Business and Neighborhood Business districts allow 20% coverage, with other commercial
districts either 30-35%. There was no one from the public at that meeting. After a lengthy
discussion, there was strong direction given to the applicant to lower the density and
square footage of the retail space and the item was unanimously continued until the
Februar' meeting so the applicant could take into consideration the concerns expressed
by the Commission.
In February, the Commission reviewed revised plans that reduced the retail square footage
from. 73,500 to 41,000 sq. ft. which included two free-standing pads and a 28,000 sq. ft.
retail center. For comparison purposes, the Thomas Lake Center is 43,000 sq. ft. The
residential units were lowered by 17% to 412, with more emphasis on smaller scale
} ac,
buildings. Only one typical three-story apartment building was proposed. The total
densil• was lowered to 11.09 units per acre on the line between the Comprehensive Guide
Plan designation of D -III (6-12 units per acre) and D -IV (12+ units). The item was
approved unanimously. At the March 6 City Council meeting, the item was referred back
to the Advisory Planning Commission based upon the following:
I. Public safety and traffic concerns relating both to the proposed development and
adjacent elementary• school.
2. Possibility of increasing school facilities which would add to the burden already
existing on Eagan taxpayers.
3. The appropriateness of the proposed zoning R-4 since there is such little leeway on
the upper limit of the zone for any flexibility or later modification.
4. Conflict wnh Enron and Cable sites and landscaping adjacent to the site and the sites
the Mselves.
S. Fewer units per acre would be more appropriate based on the location,
top cgraphy...existing number of multiple units in the City and overall City planning.
At the March 27 APC meeting, the applimnts again presented their plan to the
Commission. No changes were proposed by the applicant since they felt they previously
reduced the project as much as the% possibly could, and they now had a more desirable
ho•.:sing rnix. The discussion revolved around the Council concerns. There was a motion
to reams = the February meeting vote to approve the proposal, however that motion failed
a:th a 2.'5 vote. Two Commission members who voted against the motion were not
present at the February APC meeting. Since that time, the applicants have been working
to add-ess issues raised by the City Council dealing with the impact on City systems
including the fire department, police department, traffic along Diffley Road, and the
Bar Mille School district. It appears that City services are not negatively impacted by the
proposed development, however the police information shows there are more calls to
rental housing than owner -occupied units.
Attached are copies of the correspondence, as weU as a breakdown of vacancy rates in
rental housing provided by the Dakota County HRA and a listing of all rezonings from
R4s to other districts in Eagan since January 1987. Four hundred ten acres have been

I n reverence to vour inquiry on the impact this proposal %NU have upon fire protection

• From the information you have supplied, I do not detect any unique hazards in

Dear Mr. Gould.
APR 231990
'We have reviewed your proposal to Construct 444 residential housing
units on a site near Metcalf Junior High. We estimate .25 students
per unit for a total of 111 students. This number can be accommodated
w•ithir. Independent School District 191 facilities and will not place a
strain on school buildings in the immediate vicinity.
The plans submitted earlier suggest that this development will be
serve! primarily by culdesacs. Please keep in mind that students
would be required to walk to a bus stop located on a through street as
it is our policy not to enter culdesacs with school buses. We would
also call your attention to the need for traffic lights for students
attena::g Metcalf Junior High. We are concerned about traffic con-
jestion or. Diffley Road resulting from increased traffic flow and the
creation of a.xajor intersection immediately across from the entrance
to Metcalf Junior High. Comxercial development along Diffley Road
would exacerbate the traffic problem and sight also create an
uncontrollable urge for students to congregate at the stores at par-
ticular times during the day. The safety of students crossing Diffley
foad needs to be addressed.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Chairman Graves opened the first public bearing for the evening
regarding a rezoning to amend the Splashland PD (Planned Development)
to allow Mixed Use Multi -Family Residential and Retail Development
and a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment for specification of
development within an existing CPD (Commercial Planned Development)
designation of approximately 41 acres located in the northwest corner
of the intersection of Highway 77 and Diffley Road in the southwest
quarter of Section 19.
City Planner Jim Sturm summarized the application for the
Commission and presented the background information. He noted that
the City Council had referred the item back to the Planning
Commission, and recapped the five general concerns made known by the
Council at their March 6 meeting. City planner Jim Sturm indicated
the plan had not changed from the previously approved plan but that a
staging plan has been developed and the landscape architect had been
retained. He further stated that Enron will meet with the City to
disc -ass this landscaping.
Mike Gould (Roldt Properties) stated that they will meet with
Short-Elliott-hendrickson to study the Diffley traffic affect. SEH
will then prepare a letter on the affect. Mr. Gould further stated
that the developer will be meeting with the School Superintendent to
deterr.ine the school impact. He also stated that the project has been
cut back as ruch as possible.
Peter Pfister (Architect for the project) described the phasing
of the Frcject. Be stated that the development would start on the
sa;:thern end of the property and develop northwards. He estimated
app:cximately two years to complete the project. He presented details
on the row house buildings and described the hard cover on the
project as being approximately 35%.
Fred Dukatz, 1915 East blue Stone., asked if handicapped access
would be available. The architect responded that it would.
Chairman Graves stated that be was surprised when this item came
back and he needed more information on vhy it was referred back. City
Planner Sturm referred to the resolution of the Council and reviewed
the five points raised. Corsissionaember Trygg stated she did not
understand condition 3 in that this was a Planned Development and not
an R-4 zoning. Yr. Pfister stated that there was a lot of green space
on the project. City Planner Sturm stated that the staging plan may
eliminate some of the concern of item 3.
Chairman Graves asked how many acres of retail would be involved
in the project. The developer stated approximately 6.7 acres.
Chairman Graves further questioned the unit density. COmmissionmeaber
Merkley stated that be felt that the Council was not comfortable with
the density of the project and that they wanted a different use. He
felt that the Advisory Planning Commission should not act on the same
project.

Ic-u'CH 27, 1990 1
Corrissio;member Gorman stated that the Council thought that the Ir
Advisory Planning Commission was not in tune with the City's
direction on this project and that they wanted a more creative and
innovative alternative project. Commissionmember Voracek stated that
the Council concerns had not been addressed and felt that the only
Options were to continue for more information or deny.
Commissionmember Miller stated that thin was the same proposal
that the Advisory Planning Commission gave unanimous approval to the
s:nth before and wondered what bad changed. Chairman Graves recapped
the history of the proposal and stated that the Council minutes and
conditions did not give sufficient direction to the Planning
Co:_ission. Commissionmember' Biller agreed and stated that nothing
bad ehan;ed since the last review by the Planning Commission. He
further stated that had he been present at the last Month's meeting,
be would have objected to the Cable and Enron parcels in the
development.
?'-. Gould stated that the developer planned to approach the cable
site relocation through the Cable Commission but that Enron could be
buffered and would not reg'jire acquisition. He stated that three of
the five Council points would be addressed in the next week or se and
that the School had not raised the issue of increased enrollment. He
f4rther stated that he did not have all the answers tonight. Chairman
Graves asked if retail was necessary for the project. Mr. Gould
state: t::at it was. Chairman Graves then asked if the retail could be
de_ayed and have the residential put in first. l+.r. Gould stated that
half of the residential would be built in the first phase and then
retail. Chairman Graves stated that the developer should examine this
option. C=issicnmember Hoeft stated that the Council felt there
were too rany units in this project; that the project did not change
and therefore the discussion of the matter may be moot.
There was acre discussion regarding the Council rationale for
referring it back to the Planning Commission. Chairman Graves stated
that a continuance was not appropriate on this item. Commissionmember
Merkley stated that he felt that it was a quality development but
that the Council wanted something different.
City Attorney Mike Dougherty explained that the applicant bad
redjested the return to the Planning Commission rather than have the
Council vote on the item on March S. Chairman Graves stated that the
minutes from the Council should be more informative on items such as
these. Co..—issicrmember Markley agreed. Chairman Graves stated that
the return of two members who were not present last month and the
developer's future meetings would provide more information for the
Council. Cc-=issionsember Voracek stated be was against the proposal
as did Cc----issionmember Miller.

Councilmember Pawlenty asked why two additional parcels were requesting review when presumably the
Council was reviewing Area M because the property owner had not received proper notice. Director of Community

what. the City wants and what the owners want to bring in. He said they would like to find sorwhing that all could

Councilmember McCrea said she originaly voted against removing Area M from the rest d the parcels being
considered for rezoning because it would set a precedent and rtm two additional properties have corse forward.

DiFFLFYJCEDAR PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
The City Administrator provided a chronology on this item. He said the protect first appeared on the Advisory
Planning Commission agenda in January of 1990 and again in February when it was recommended for approval.
The Crty Council head the kern for the first time in March and then referred it back to the Planning Commission with
specKic dlrection. At the March 27 APC meeting, a motion to reaffirm the February approve' failed. However, the
City Adrninistrato, added that whether this could be construed as a denial was open to interpretation. He then
turned the discussion of the background of this item over to the Director of Community Development.
Direo, of Commun'ry Developme�-rt Runkle pointed o.rt that the applicant had reduced the density of the
original apri, ;aeon. He said the plan that had been originally preserved to the APC at their January meeting had
been reduced for reconsideration in February by 17%. h was this reduced density plan that was recommended
for appro.a'. Ate, hea-ing the proposa: at the March 5, 1990, City Council meeting, the City Council referred the
proje l back to the Planning Commission meeting for additiora.' review. Mr. Runkle said the motion at that meeting
did not a`iirrr the originamotion. Mr. Runkle also said the Planning Commission had reevaluated the issues and
concerns re=ading p,,blic safety, schools, zoning. appropriateness of use and now R was a I" use decision. Mr.
Runkle said the arPiica7 was there to answer any questions.
Mayor Egan said he was a itttie disappointed in the product coming back from the APC. He said he thought
the Council had expressed their concerns to the Planning Commission and had warded those concerts addressed.
He said he did not see arry1hing in the APC action that indicated they had addressed the issue of whether this
product was the project the City wanted for this site. He then asked the applicant I the protect had been changed.
Mike Gould of Kold. Properties said than; k had riot.
Councilmernber Gustafson asked M the R-4 (apartments) had been removed from the project and the Director
of Community Deveiopmern said no, there were two, 140 unit apartment buildings in the project. C-ouncilmember
McCrea said that the propos& had not changed from that brought before the Council in March.
The Mayor told the appli m that the City is studying R-4 and R-3 zoning In the City and is boking for a net
downzoning of those properties. He said the Council was receiving the same project as before and it would be up
to the developer to convince the Council that they should bok at the property dtfferertty than they had on March
S.
Mike Go;,ld then attempted to clarify the developer's position on the project. He said they had reduced the
density previo;ls}y bolt had to balance economics with what was marketable and with what would serve the people

of Eagan. He said because of the quality and uniqueness of the site, the market they wanted to reach was at that
SSOO-$950 rent range, or at the upper end of the rent market. He said the product would ap a' to the higher
irc:arne rerrer, marry Of whom would be buying in the area and rent 1-2 Years before buying. He sa;d the quality
of the project would appeal to the senior population and they have Se% occupancy in their other senior
developmerus. He said they had paid special attention to the amernbes or the project such as, landscaping. an
irri-: tion system, mairrte-ance free (metaD erteriors, water arnenfties, a 5,1000 s.f, ciubhouse, whletic facilities for
children, and traifwa s. Mr. Gould said they are also working with Enron to improve the sne knes.
Mr. Gould then addressed some of the aftemate uses VW. had been suggested by the Council for this
property. He said he had talked to an associate wfth the Radisson Hate! chain and was told the hotel market is
,ex*:remely sof; right now. Mr. Gould also said the cfrooe space market had a 25% - 35% vacancy rate. He added
VW. M on the of. chance a hotel development or oDrporme headquarters development were to corse in, they would
have to be vey sizeable for a 40 we Me. He said quality was the substitute here and they would like to do the
Project -
Mr. Peter Pfister then spoke to the Council regarding their ooncems about the density of the project. He said
that a typi:a' project with 16 units per acre would translate into 50% hard cover, however, because this project
has three stoy apar;rwrs and underground parking, they are looking at 35% hard cover. He also pointed out that
the parcels involved with this development carry three different zonings: light industrW, agricultural, and general
business. He said one of, the benefits of the project would be to remove some of the industria' zoned land. They
would alscw landscape and shield the Enron property, He said there is a lot of open space at Enron, and wfth the
new development and landscaping, the Enron buildings would tend to subside from view, He said that their
development would focus on the `new town' concept integrating diverse housing types with recreation and retail on
site. The concept envisioned for the Diffiey/Cada• site is modeled architecturally atter an English village with steep
roofs, chimneys, row houses and gardens.
Council-nernber McCrea questioned whether the slides indicated what would actually be built or whether they
werejus: ideas. W. Pf'ste' said the slides showed conceptual drawings. The Councilmember also asked how many
people were p•oposed to live in the development. Mr. Pfister said from 6W - 700. Councilmember McCrea was
also concerned abo�r, the number of persons per household. Director of Community Development Runkle said that
the number of pewris per household in Eagan is approximately 3.4 persons in single-family and 1.5 persons in
multiple. The numbers for students per household is approximately 1.25 for single-family and less than .5 for
multifamily.
Co-incil-nember. McCrea then asked with those numbers, how the development would support the daycare
a,)d retail centers. Mr. Gould said they would also serve other residents. The Councilmember said that was not
a `new town' concept. Mr. Gould said the development was not on a scale to be seff-supporting.
Councilmember Gustafson said an office or hotel use for this parcel may not be ma istic. He said he
personally did not consider a mixed residential use inappropriate for this site, particularty synce the market and
quaky are there. He said he had looked at other developments the developer has in the Twin Cities and is assured
of the qual y. Cojr cllmember Gustafson said that with all things considered, they may be hard-pressed to find
anything better.
May Teske, a resident of Cinnamon Ridge, said that a hotel or the preebusy proposed Sp"hland did not
exche the neighborhood and they were not anxious to have any more commercial. She said it is a residentia, area
and she did no: understand the zoning. She expressed Concerns about an LPG line that ran through the property
and recommended that ft be checked to see if it had been abandoned. Prior to approval, however, she requested
that the Counci' address traffic and drainage problems. Because of its location, s."ie was concerned that properties
below it would e"-ience flooding.

Tom Webster, the owner d three d the parcels, said they had dealt with the drainage issue when Splashland
was proposed. He said even with the parking lot, the drainage was no problem. He also pointed out that there
were a number of different parcels on the ridge and a number of different zonings. He said he would like to see
someone development the entire area as one project wher than a piecemea' approach. He also raid he has had
a number of persons approach him to buy indMdual parcels for a gas station or a plumbing supply company, but
has tried to wait for orae big development.
Councilmember Pawienty said he had stniggled with the quality and quantity issue. He said the developer
was aware that they would have to have a quality project but the Councilmernber was conoemed about the details
d the project. He said he liked the drawings but was heshant until the details were bolted down with a definite
commitmert<. He said as he looked a: other ahematives for ft site, the proposed project may bre the lesser of two
evils.
The City Administrator said the Council had identified an important point and suggested that the Council direct
City Safi to mer: with the developer to generate a development agreement. He said this would allow them to satisfy
their concems before making a commitment to the project.
Councilmembe- McCrea asked the Director of Community Development if there were any possiblity the
Metropolftan Counci'. would not approve the project. Mr. Runkle said that in addition to the comprehensive guide
plan, it would have a lesser impact as residernia' and would fit the environmentar standards. He said he did not
foresee any problem.
Councilmembe• 1%'achter asked tf the Council should take for granted that this was the best use of the
property. He said it did not live up to his expectations. Councilmember. Gustafson said the project was better than
that a'lowed under the preserr, zoning. With the present zoning however, he said it would be difficult to tum down
a developer whc me: the regLiiremerds and wanted to put in a gas station.
The City Administrator asked If the Council had a-ry desire to direct Community Development to look at other
land use options. Counciimember Pawlenty said he was interested in other options' however, for the present
propose', he needed to be convinced that the quality of the exteriors was exceptional. Mayor Egan recommended
a two-way d,a►ogie between the stay and City Council during the next 30 days.
Gusta'son moved, McCrea seconded, a motion to direct ste, to work with Kolch Properties in the formulation
Of a deveiopmerr, ag•eemerrl to be brought back to the City Council for their consideration at the June 5, 1990,

Counclmember McCrea warned her second to the motion tempered with the understanding that she reserves
the rigt not to follow through with approval for the project if the exterior quality of the development's buildings are
riot suitable or site sensitive or concerns about traffic circulation are non satisfactorily addressed.

300 vehicle trips a day. Mark Hanson said that traffic projections for Elrene Road are for 3500 vehicle trips
a day. Director of Public Works Colbert pointed out that if the property is downzoned, the developer
would receive the lower rate for a 32' roadway and any oversizing to 36' would be the responsibility of the
City. Mr. Engstrom asked that they think in terms of function. He said there are a minimum number of
curb cuts and with a reduced street width, there would be reduced runoff, increased safety, etc. He said a
narrower road would work based on function. He said the State's willingness to decrease street widths was
a significant break through and should certainly be discussed.
Mr. Steve Bryant of West Publishing said they have reviewed the project and generally agree. West
asks that the boundaries of pond JP -17 not be defined before the property is developed. They ask that
sanitary sewer stubs be provided for the one residential lot on West's property and that the appropriate
assessment rate structure be reviewed. Mr. Bryant said that West would have some safety concerns
regarding a street width lower than 36' but agreed with the desire to have a minimum impact on the area
Ms. Beverly Carson, 3765 Elrene Road, asked if they were being assessed because they access
directly onto Elrene Road. Director of Public Works Colbert said that reconstruction of streets is financed
in part by those taking direct access onto these streets. He said there are others who use Elrene, however,
they will pay the costs when their local streets are reconstructed. Mr. Colbert said Ms. Carlson's property
was being assessed based on a 32' roadway just as someone living on an internal street and also based only
on front footage.
Ms. Monica Hoovestol, of 3775 Eirene Road, said widening the road will increase the speeds on
Elrene. She said people abide more by speed limits on narrower roads.
Wachter moved, Gustafson seconded, a motion to close the public hearing, approve Project 589,
Elrene Road and Kost Road (Streets and Utilities) and authorize the preparation of detailed plans and
specifications along with acquisition of easements through condemnation if necessary. Aye: 5 Nay: 0

REZONING/COMPREHENSWE GUIDE PLAN AMENDMENT
DUTLEY/CEDAR PLANNED DEVEL OPMENTIKOLDT PROPERTIES
After introduction by Mayor Egan, the City Administrator said that the City Council had reviewed
this application in the past and specific concerns raised by the City Council have been addressed in a
development agreement. The development agreement was included with information provided to the
Council for this meeting.
Councilmember Pawlenty said this is a high-quality project and one deserving of close scrutiny.
However, the Councilmember said when he considered his vote, he thought of comments on the R4 study
regarding downzoning and asked himself how he could square those comments with voting in favor of this
project. He said these are high quality apartments but the developer of Area C in the Multifamily
Residential Study has said they would come back with a plan for high quality apartments. Councilmember
Pawlenty said he was having a hard time squaring the two issues.
Mayor Egan said he bad gone through the same process. However, he said, mistakes in prior
zonings tended to be both ways. Mayor Egan said if they could recognize that some properties should not
have been zoned multiple, they should also recognize that some properties should have been. It is a
question of whether this particular rezoning is preferable to the present zoning. Mayor Egan said this is
a quality product on a very visible parcel. He said the neighbors were up in arms over Area C of the R-
4 Study but the few comments the City has received from these neighbors has been positive.
Page 9/EAGAN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
July 17, 1990
Councilmember Gustafson said the total density of the Diffley/Cedar project is R-3 versus R-4. He
said while there are some apartments included in the project, the overall density is R-3. Councilmember
Gustafson also said if they did not rezone this property, be was concerned that it would be a hodgepodge
of six different parcels with different Zonings.
Councilmember McCrea said the Council had to look at each parcel individually. She said the more
she looked at this project the more convinced she became that the developer was willing to work with staff
to offer a quality development.
Councilmember Wachter said he objected to the previous plan. He said he thought this was a good
site for a different type of development. Councilmember Wachter said he had not changed much since
making that statement. He said considering the reports from the Fire Department, the Police Department
and the school, he didn't think he could vote in favor.
Councilmember Pawlenty asked the City Attorney if the Council approved this project, what the
consequences would be to other actions. City Attorney Sheldon said that any time a rezoning is granted,
it is held up as an example. He said that should not be a determining factor and each action should stand
on its ov.m.
Mayor Egan said the purpose of the R4 Study was to eliminate R4 zoning where it was
inappropriate, not eliminate R4 altogether. He said if the underlying zoning is less appropriate than what's
being proposed, it provides an opportunity for a superior project. Councilmember Pawlenty said he is still
concerned regarding the increased or disproportionate number of demands on City services for this type of
zoning. Mayor Egan said there could be less demand on City services for R-3 and R4 than the underlying
commercial on this property.
Councilmember Pawlenty said the developer had gone through a lot of work but needed to
understand that a lot has happened since they were last before the Council. Councilmember Pawlenty said
that possible legal consequences needed to be considered. He said he did not want to mislead the
developer, but circumstances have changed. Mr. Mike Gould of Koldt Properties said that they were caught
up in the R4 Study even though these properties were not part of it. He said they have come a long way
since their initial proposal and he believes theirs' is a superior use for this site.
Mayor Egan told the developer that if the project would lose on a 3R vote, it could not be brought
back for reconsideration for one year. Mr. Gould said they would like the opportunity to deal with the fire
and safety issues prior to putting the project to a vote.
Gustafson moved, Egan seconded, a motion to continue to the September 18, 1990, regular City
Council meeting, the Comprehensive guide plan amendment for specification of a development within an
existing CPD (commercial planned development) of approximately 41 acres. Aye: 5 Nay: 0

Mayor Egan introduced this item and asked if it was to be Continued. City Administrator Hedges
said the City had received a number of complaints about off-street parking and the City Council had asked
that an ordinance be addressed. Community Development will look at the ordinance to see how it applies
to the zoning ordinance; therefore, staff is requesting a continuance. Mr. Hedges said any discussion would
indicate whether staff was on the right track with this ordinance.

It is my understanding that the subject development project was
returned to the Planning Commission for additional consideration.
Further, I understand that there were no significant changes made
to the plan. With this information I can re -state the data from
my April 16, 199.0 memo.
This project does not appear to present any unique fire suppression
hazards if adequate access to multiple sides of the building is
available to facilitate rescue and fire suppression efforts. In
addition, sufficient roadway/ driveway widths and turning radius
must be provided.
As with other multiple housing units in the city, we anticipate an
additional number of calls related to unfounded alarms.

I have reviewed the information supplied regarding the rezoning of
the area West of Cedar and North of Diffley Road. After reviewing
that information, my concern remains the same relative to the
additional Law Enforcement Services required in multiple dwelling
units.
As you are aware, we completed a study for the time period of March
5, 1990 through July 6, 1990, in an effort to determine criminal
activity in apartments and townhouses versus single family
residential property. The Police Department counted the five
following groups of criminal activity:
Assault/Crime Sex/Crimes Against Family - Apts/Townhouses
Single Family
Disturbing Peace/Privacy/Communications - Apt./Townhouses
Single Family
Thefts/Burglary
Domestics
Criminal Damage/Trespass
- Apt./Townhouses

The Police Department also researched the same criminal activity
in a Business and Commercial Area and found activity was minimal
with the exception of high use areas such as Cub and Target.
My major concern after analysis of this statistical information is
that multiple dwelling units generate 2 to 1, if not 3 to 1 more
criminal activity than single family units. I understand that
R-4 Development in Eagan is at about 35% of the total residential
mix. If this mix continues, the Police Department will require
more staff than currently projected.

DIM -BY / CMAR MDW USE D£V'ELOMM
We have revie+++ed the concept plan dated February 2, 2990 ass presented to us by
xoldt Properties, Inc.. Our review has Included:
- Trips generated by the proposed development versus
trips anticipated using the Comprehensive Land Use Plan
- Potential operational Impacts to Diffley Road
- Acftss and internal circulation
Our findings are that the proposed development should have little impact on
Diffley Road operations. Also it appears that traffic to/frca the site should
be able to be aocommodated by the existing roadway design and traffic controls.
TRIP G EMATION
The proposed development Is fixated near Eagan's western city boundary.
The site is bounded by Diffley Road on the south, Old Trw* Highway 13 on
the west and Cedar Avenue (TH-77) on the east. The Comprehensive Land Use
Plan designates this site as GB -PD or a general business planned
development, Currently there exists a number of developments in the
immediate vicinity of the site:
- Fest: SuperAnerica at Diffley Road / TH-13
- South: Metcalf Junior High School
- Northwest: A single family residence and a mini -storage facility
- North: Bnron Gas CDSPOcq► pipeline pump housings
There is also an existing cable television station located within the
Proposed development site on the northwest.
The Sagan Transportation Plan used the coopreher:sive GB land use
designation (office and retail) and estimated that approximately 8,600
average daily trips would occur by year 2010. The current proposal is
estimated to produce roughly the same traffic, however the peak hour
directional distribution would be Heavier in -bound in the evenindi►e to

DIFFL$Y ROAD OPMATIONSS ANALYSIS
Diffley Road is at four lane roadway divided by a median which provides
left turn lanes at the eastern proposed access. The median ends near the
wwterly access and a painted ewtbound left turn lane le provided.
Diffley Road currently carries slightly more than, 5,000 vehicles on an
average day (ADT) at this location. 'Traffic has been growing at about 3
Feroent per yew over the last 10 Fears which Is similar to the average
grawth for other roads in the state. The Trareportation plan projects
that In 20 years the volume will be approximately 9,9DD ADT.
An analTsis of the operation daring the peek hotwo 20 years herr haus
found that the roadway should function quite well under Its current design
w'id with the current stop sign controls on the sidestreets. Some delay
will be incurred by traffic desiring to turn onto Diffley 'Road, t4wever
the delays are eVected to be relatively short.
AC= AND INPSW1 CTRCUI ATION
Acoess to Diffley Road appears to function well provided that the location
of the easterly access is refined to line up properly with the Junior High
School entrance. There are a number of Internal Circulation concerns
which will have to be resolved during the project review prooess. Our
primary ooncerns venter on the function of the t= h -south residential
street which connects with the only ams to the retail development. The
north -south residential street carries throtagh traffic through the retail
parking area. The two combined traffic uses may Negatively impact one
another as well as cause a pedestrian safety problem. We also have come
other geometric and parking conoerns which can be resolved during later

CARLSON LAKE PARK IMPROVEMENTS
E. Carlson Lake Park Improvements --Upon direction by the City Council, the Advisory
Parks and Recreation Commission reconsidered the park improvements proposed for
Carlson Lake at its regular meeting on Thursday, September 6. Input from residents in
support of and opposition to the improvements took part in a 21/2 hour hearing which
resulted in an apparent compromise reducing the trail from 8 feet to 6 feet in width,
retaining the playground equipment as proposed but eliminating the hard court. If this
compromise is approved by the City Council at the September 18 meeting, it will allow
the contractor to resume work and complete the project at the earliest possible date.
For additional information in this regard, please refer to the Advisory Parks and
Recreation memoranda and reports fond on pages Ma j4hrough or your review.
Also enclosed on pages through are copies of petitions, letters and telephone
records received by the Parks and Recreation Department in this regard.

Adjacent residents to Carlson Lake Park, upset with the loss of trees on the west side of
the park, appeared at a recent (August 7th) City Council meeting, and an "on-site
meeting' was conducted on Monday, August 20, 1990. Several of these residents again
appeared at the City Council meeting on Tuesday, August 21, 1990, and reiterated their
"de,:.ands" that the trail, hzrdcourt and pla}, equipment be eliminated from the park plans.
They wanted the park to remain in a passive state.
The Cin• Council has referred the item to the Advisory Parks & Recreation Commission,
with direction to revise the plans to return the park to a passive park. Letters to area
residents of Carlson Lake Park have been mailed to inform them of this Commission
meeting ar,d the direction of the City Council.
ADDITIONAL INT0R".%L4TION
Attached is additional information which has proceeded this item being placed on the
Commission meeting. These items are as follows: (1) Memorandum dated February 27,
concerning Carlson Lake Park, and addressed to the Parks & Recreation Commission (2)
Memorandum dated March 27, addressed to Tom Hedges, Mayor Egan &: Council
regarding Carlson Lake Park plans (3) Memo dated August 9, 1990, prepared for the
Council and Mayor preparatory to a special meeting concerning the annual operating
budget. (4) letter addressed to the residents advising them of the Monday, August 20, on-

BACKGROL-N-D
On Januarz 29th, staff conducted its second neighborhood meeting with residents from the
Carlson Lake Park area. The previous meeting was in May, 1989, which was conducted
for the p,--pcse of gathering input from the resident's in regards to the park needs. On
January 29th, staff presented three concept alternative plans for review by the
neizhborhood.
ISSUES
In general; the neighborhood seemed agreeable to the plans pro--ided. The emphasis was
on keep ng the park "lowx key" and "passive" with an absence of high use facilities such as
ba'.fields. A general use open play area seemed an appropriate alternative. Trails within
the park were agreeable, there was some discussion over the needs of a dock for children's
fisl;ing. and by the end of the meeting it was clear that the majority of the residents
washed to provide this type of facility. Perhaps the single most important issue that was
not reso'.ved was the need for location of playground equipment. The residents
irnmediatelt adjacent to the park were opposed to playground equipment. The rationale
is that the playground equipment will create noise from the children. This noise is
amplified by the bowled topographic character of the lake area. They feel the noise will
echo and be a disturbance to the immediate neighborhood. There were several residents
who spoke up in favor of the play equipment. Typically, these were residents who reside
within the park senice area and not adjacent to the lake. They felt the playground would
service the many young children in the neighborhood. Those that were opposed to the
play equipment pointed out the existing playground at Oak Chase Park. Some residents
explained that this equipment was small, far from their homes and that the crossing of
Wilderness Run Road was a safety concern.
The AdNlson• Commission will have to make a determination on the appropriateness of
playground equipment for this particular park.

Another issue for the Advisory Commission is the question of a trail going east from the
entrance of the park. Staff had proposed a trail that simply "dead -ended". At the time
of acquisition of this park property in the 1970's, an easement was not obtained from
one lot for the extension of this trail to the east side of the park. One lot remains which
precludes this from happening. There was concern that since there no longer appeared
to be an opportunity for the trail to connect to the cast side of the park on East Balsam,
this segment of the trail should simply be omitted from the park plan.
The last remaining item refers to the placement of the hardcourt within the park.
Currently the hardcourt is provided near the lift station that services Carlson Lake. Staff
has proposed that this be screened and that the hardcourt be placed elsewhere in the
park. Several mentioned that it seemed acceptable to leave the court where it was,
although staff feels that its relocation would be more appropriate.
OTHER TMI S
One issue to discuss is that of a sliding hill. It was mentioned that children had been
using the rear yards of homes to the south for winter sliding activities (at least when snow
provided that opportunity). Staff had suggested that plant material be put along the
propem- lines. This would discourage sledding, but delineate the park boundary and
provide privacy to the adjacent residents.
DISCUSSION
The single most difficult issue for the Advisory Commission will be that of the playground
equipment. One perspective is that all neighborhood parks have playground equipment
and placement within a reasonable proximity to their homes; this is something the
department has always attempted to do. Clearly, those that are opposed to the equipment
are those that are closest to it. Those that are farther away are those that most favor it.
Staff was somewhat surprised that there weren't more people at the neighborhood meeting
asking for playground equipment considering that over the years those are the questions
and comments that have been directed to the department! Some people may just assume
that play equipment is going to be installed. The issues for the Advisory Commission are
the views expressed by those next to the park, and do they reflect the views of all of the
neighborhood or represent simply their views because they do not wish to see playground
equipment next to their homes? Are they accurate when they say there are not enough
children to warrant putting in play equipment? Clearly, this is a subjective issue.

Staff has prepared a plan which shows the playground equipment within the park; this will
help illustrate what might be provided for the play area. I would also like to remind the
Commission that this park has not been identified as having a "full" playground, such as
has been installed at Walnut Hill, Ridgecliff, or other large neighborhood parks. Rather,
this is to be a partial equipment module due to the probable lower use that is expected
at this location.
FOR CONI'TISSION ACTION
The Commission should review the park concept plans with a recommendation or adoption
of a master park plan. for Carlson Lake Park, in order that construction documents can
be prepared.
Also, to recommend the inclusion of a playground at this specific park, or to omit the play
egLpment from the park design.

RE: CARLSON LAKE PARK PLAN
BACKGROIND
On Janua:%• 29, 1990, staff conducted a second neighborhood meeting with residents from
the Carlson Lake Park area. The first meeting was held in 1989, for the purpose of
gatheri;nE input from the residents in regard to their park needs. At the January 29, 1990,
meeting staff presented three (3) concept plans for review by the neighborhood. A
co. posite plan was prepared based on the preferences indicated and presented to the
AdN:sc-y Parks and Recreation Commission at its March Commission meeting. Residents
frorn the area 2ttende6 that meeting to address the park plan.
ISSITS
In general, the neighborhood seemed agreeable to the plan provided at the January
meeting: the e n—lasis was on keeping the park low keyed and passive. The plan
ralappy oN°ed by the Ad,,isory Parks and Recreation Commission emphasizes general use, open
play area and avoids "high use" facilities such as a ballfield.
Perhaps t? e single most important issue that was not resolved at the earlier neighborhood
meeting, was the need for and location of playground equipment and a hardcourt play
surface. Residents :L-nmediately adjacent to the park were opposed to playground
equipment. The rationale is that the playground equipment would create noise from the
children. Further, the noise would be amplified by the bowl, topographic character of the
lake area. Residents felt that the noise viU echo and will be a disturbance to the
immediate neighborhood. There were also several residents who spoke up in favor of the
playground equipment. Typically, these residents were within the park service area, but
not necessary adjacent to the lake. They felt that playground,Ihardcourt would service the
many young children in the neighborhood. In response to residents who opposed the
playground. equipment, and who had earlier pointed out that playground equipment was
available at Oak Chase Park, it was noted this equipment was not convenient, the
ecJi-mens was limited, far from their homes, and the crossing of Wilderness Run Road
was a safer- concern.

CONI'MISSION ACTIUNT
The Ad,-zsory Parks and Recreation Commission heard from those residents who were
opposed to the playground equipment. The discussion amongst the Advisory Commission
conclude that concern for noise as a result of the playground equipment was, perhaps,
overstated. The purpose of neighborhood parks are for children and for play.
The motion was made and seconded, and passed four to three (4.3) that the Master Parks
Plan as pr o�Ided be approved with the inclusion of the playground equipment and
hardco::'t surface area.

the i.�;proverrment of a lift station, several.benches and miscellaneous tree plardings.
In 1935 the adoption of the Comprehensive Parks Systems Plan developed a concept

f ollows:
o Construe stairway access to lakeshore from east and west end.
C Provide series of fishing docks
o Build picnic "pads" on west bank

PUBLIC REVIEW PROCESS
11-
The development of the Carlson Lake Park prograrn and master plan included two
neighborhood meetings, an Advisory Parks and Recreation Commission meeting and
a City CoJncil meeting.
Nelchborhood Meeting #1 - May 1B 19><9
At the neighborhood meeting stair presented a short analysis of the parkland, the
Comprehensive Parks System Plan and summarized the development process. A
majority of the time was spent having the twenty neighbors express their concerns
rega7di: ►g development needs for Carlson Lake Park. Staff's review of the minuses of
this meeting indicate residents request for additional pedestrian access to the park
a.-commodating the neighborhoods to the north, east and west. The Council may recall
that the current pedestrian access to the park is via an eight foot bituminous trail
lo:ated vi hin a 30 foot wide lineal corridor off Carlson Lake Lane.
Nel.hbc�hocd fileetin, j2 January 29, 1990
The second ne'_~borho.-;d meet'ng was a�Iended by 35 residents. Staff reviewed three
de✓eiop-nent concepts. The minutes from this meeting refiecdiverse
cr:n on by the resider,:s in re and to facil y and program needs. The trail imp, ove-nent
provdirg p=rk a:;cess to the north and west nei_hborhoods was supported by several
it a~er.::_^ce. A fe,n• residents fel: the existing park access was appropriate and no
into the park was necessary.
Adviscry Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting - Marches. 10po
Sia` p-ese, ted a preferred master plan to the Commission based on the information
derived from the Comprehensive Parks Systems Plan and the two neighborhood
mee*ings. Stay had reviewed 3 alternative alignments for the westerly trail based on
the to the adjace^t woodland. The first altemative was a trail system which
Wi; zed an array of steps to accommodate the steep grade. This alternative had been
rejec+ed at the neighborhood meetings be:ause it did not accommodate bicycle and
stroller use. The second alternative was for a switchback trail. This alternative removed
a ma o -sty of the wDodiand including significant oak trees. The third alternative was for
a tangential trail which was aligned diagonal across the woodland sideslope. This
at-e-natwe reduced the tree loss and preserved the significant oak trees. The minutes
of this meeting reflect no opposition by the residents in attendance to the westerly trail.
Gid' Council Meeting - April 3, 1Ep
Dire --+,o7 Vraa presented the recommended development plan to the Council. The
Ca'i5-Vn Lake Fa k pian was approved without modification.
i7o
IMIPRJVEMENT CONTRACT 90-1
(mrrovement Contract 90.1 was awarded to Bituminous Roadway Incorporated and
work at Carlson Lake Park began on July 24, 1990. Construct►ion limits were
established, erosion control fabric installed, and the clear and grub operation began.
The clear and grub limits were established utilizing shot topography which included the
specific location, size and type of all significant trees. The trail design utilized this tree
sLjrvey and therefore was able to minimize the impact to the significant trees. Fie'd
review of the project scope after the award of contract resulted in additional tree
preservation by the removal, of the bituminous trail along Carlson Lake Lane. This
change in contract preserved a additional 15-20% of the trees within the park.
City stcu, prior to the clearing operation, reviewed in the field this westerly parkland
area anc, fj~her tightened the ciewing limits. Trees to be removed were evaluated on-
site ant marked by the Ciry staff. The trees removed were approximately SC -90% box
eiders, 10.20°. pop,ars!wif!ows and a few hardwoods. Ali significant oak trees with the
exce;.t=on of one 16 inch diameter red oak were preserved. As well, the trail alignment
as represented at the second neighborhood meeting, the Advisory Parks and
Re: -eat: -.n Commission and City Council meetings was adhered to by City Staff and
the c=�n:ra=or.
In the Cry Coun:i% direion .at the August 7 meeting, staff has
advised tr;e contra.—Lor to step all cut''.ing of standing trees at Carlson Lake, Park. A%
tree re -n:;.=' is co-;p!ete with the exception of a few boxelders.
REFORESTATION
Typica' of Eagan's phased parkland development process Carlson Lake Park will be
reforested 1-2 years after turf establishment. City staff, will prepare a planting plan
which will acro, modate the spacial, functiona' and aesthetic needs of the parkland.
In regard to the westerly trail area staff proposes the reforestation with desirable
tree!shrub species. These species will be chosen based on wildlife enhancement
qualities, functional aesthetics, life span, hea`ih and maintenance considerations. On
occasion, Ci:y staff has consulted with adjacent neighbors or neighborhoods in the
deve:opment of panting plans. This assures public input, compatible design and a
good neighbor relationship. The City Council may wish to direct staff to undertake such
a co-operative approach.
UMIMARY
The rer nova' of trees a` Carlson Lake Park is consistent with the plans presented and
ars, over:, d. I the p;jblic review process. City staff has taken every effort to minimize
Vee loss by looking at trai! alternatives, preparing a tree survey, field revision of the
Ca,is:n Lake Lane trail, on-site review and marking of specific trees.
The cads and conversations to stmt and CounCil focus on the tree rernoval
ct CG-isc Lake Park. It is evident that the numerous residents which attended several
p�,b' c meet n_s cldl not understand the extent of tree loss. Staff also speculates that
sort residents we rnisi; formed and do not understand the scope of the park
i—p---ve ; ,t. These residents may see trees being cut dow without understanding the
bcc✓arc.; ,d, the trai' corridor needs or the reforestation of the disturbed area. Whether
cc^suc::ng a park or a road the constru:,tion process sometimes appears destru- ive
te`c,e The City Council may recall the removal of a boxelder woods
at Lakeside Pa -k. The park has since been landscaped with desireable species and
in stats opinion, a_s1,he1;:al!y enhanced. Severa! concerned residents had indicated
that VetC;Minantly significant hardwood species were being removed. This
p•es. rt:cn is smp'y incorrect with the majority of trees removed being boxelders, a
tree class _-1 as undesirable according to the City's Landscape Ordinance. The
e`ec:iveness of the process and staff's efforts does to minimize the importance of the
public's negative perception of the tree loss at Carlson Lake Park. Staff seeks direction
from the Council regarding the future implementation of Improvement Contract 9J-1 and
the ne;ative public perception regarding this situation.

Dear Carlson Lake Park Residents;
The City of Eagan appreciates your input in the development of Carlson Lake Park.
This input at the p•evious neighborhood meeting, Advisory Parks and Recreation
Cc -;mission and City Council meetings have provided the City with important
inf:�rr^a'icn which will uttimate!y result in a better park system.
As y ---.:'re proDab!y awa-e, construction has begun at Carlson Lake Park. The Cly
err-ccia`.E5 yo. r tole-ancle of, any inconvenience as a resu" of this construction. Typical
of the ccns` '-':400n process, the park, for a short period of time, will appear to be in
d"sss-ray. The ccn'.ract or at this time will be removing topsoil and rough grading the
park. vi; ?n a s~:; -t period of time, you will start seeing improvement occur with final
gray,
of t> ;e f.: ; re facilities sj--h as tra!s, hard court and playground pad.
The City, re:eive. nu-ne•ous ca!!s the first week in August regarding the tree removal
for the wes:e•►y trail corridor. The decision to remove specific trees was based on a
tree survey of signi` :ant ha•dwoods, as we'll as refierting the needs for the trail
ir„provemle: , . Tne trees removed were approximately 80-90% box elders, 10-20%
pop;a•s'vr;ows and a few small hardwoods. All significant oak trees, with the exception
of one 16 d:ame:er red oak, were preserved. (The contractor took this oak in error
a has agreed to provide ca!iper inch replacement.) In response to the neighborhood,
the Crty Council at the August 7, 1990 meeting instructed staff to have the contractor
stop a'l' fe:iing of additional trees at Carlson Lake Park. All cutting of trees has been
suspended and considered complete.
The City will be completing a reforestation plan for Carlson Lake Park. This planting
plan will accommodate the spacial, functional and aesthetic needs of the parkland.
special attention will be taken when evaluating the type, size and density of plant
mate-ial to be installed on the westerly trail corridor. Preliminary review indicates the
replacement species to be hardwood, long lived trees which have aesthetic qualities
such as blooms, fruits and fali colors. The implementation of the reforestation plan
typically oc:,::•s after turf establishment.

Dear Resident;
As you are aware, construction of Carlson Lake Park began several weeks ago.
The park plan provided trail access from the west side. Also planned for was
plapround equipment and a relocated hard court (basketball).
Neighboring residents requested of the City Council at the Council meeting on
Tuesday, August 21 st that the playground, hard court and trail access be omitted from
the park plans with the park re -designed to become a 'passive" park. The City Council
has referred the issue of revising the construction plans to the Park and Recreation
Commission to meet the neighbors' request. The next commission meeting is
scheduled for Thursday, September 6, at 7:30 P.M. at the Eagan Municipal Center.
The Commission will take up the issue of how best to change the park plan to
meet the neighbors' request for removal of the playground, trail and hard court. If you
have an interest in seeing how the park plans are to be revised to meet this request,
please pian to attend the Commission meeting.
Sincere ,

Dear Ken:
This note is in response to the letter we received from you today, asking for input from neigh-
bors aboat the Ca-lson Lake Park construction project
We want von to know that, as neighbors who live across the street from the lake, we are fully
suypo. live of the cirv's plans to put a bike trail, playground equipment and a hard court basket-
baL area u;;hin Ca.Ison Lake Park. It is unthinkable that the project would be altered or
storped, since the "damage" to trees on the west side of the lake has already been incurred.
Plants to develop Carlson Lake Park were adopted more than six years ago, when Eagan voters
a;T,-ovet64 the 1964 pa:ks bond referend= 'We are disappointed that our three children (now
ages 30, € and 6; haven't b-:; able to use a developed Ca lson Lake Park during these last six
yea.7s. Horerc:,y, now that the improve=nt is final]), tau ng place, they will be able to take
gr:ate: a�-vz::_ge of the facilin. ir the years ahead.
Tr.e cu: --.n: disap-eernent is unfortunate. Some of our neighbors seem to be cow"used, somehow
fL ng to understand the p,.L-pose of a public park. They have become used to having the spa-
cious grass} wta as their owr pnvate preserve. They want to discourage usage of the park by
ting it less a active to the children of the neighborhood. They would do that by canceling
the long-awL-6.w improvements. Fairness dictates that that should not happen. Fairness dictates
&.a–. C.A.N. p_.Kp-ore--} should be used by all, and that public policies should encourage use of
pa-ks r.ore.. - to the g=atest extent possible.
Teat is no: happening now. But it can, with your help.
We hope &,a; the Parks and Recreation Commission %ill follow through with the long-awaited
}''LrS IC , ;7C)'Ve Car:son Lake Park, and resist of o.'S by a minoii j of =:Aghbors to Jeep the
park as a r::b:icl}-ow'nc+, taxpayer -supported extension of their own back yards.

Dear Mr. Vraa:
Thank you for the invitation to the September 6 Park and Recreation Commission
meeting. Unfortunately, neither my wire nor I will be in town for the meeting.
Our requests to return the park to a "passive" one are simple: do not introduce any
man-made structures into the park. Rather, eliminate the hard courts, play
equipment and trail. Replace those items with a new graded, level turf along the
flat south shore where all the grading has taken place. Replant as many trees and
shrubs as is possible on both the level area and the denuded western slope below
Carlson Lake Lane.
The goal should be twofold; a reforested western slope, a reforested, grassland
prairie -like a -ea where the hard court and play equipment were designed to be
placed. Special efforts are needed on the hill to restore it to a full wooded area and
to pr eve: t natural erosion, as well as erosion caused by the introduction of the
inevitable human traffic of bikes, motorcycles and pedestrians as the hill is trying
to rejuvenate itself.
Although we cannot be at this first meeting to discuss the park redesign, we are
available to a.-ork with you both in the planning and implementing stages to restore
Carlsoc Lake Park to a beautiful passive park. Do no hesitate to call upon us.
Re hope your meeting with our neighbors on September 6 will be constructive and
conciliatory. We appreciate your concern, efforts and willingness to wor k with us
on this project.
Cordially, :n

COMPILED BY: COMMUNM DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT &
CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE
BACKGROUND: Over the past year, the Community Development Department has been
studying multi -family residential land use in Eagan. Multi -family residential development
was designated by the City Council as a topic for review for two primary reasons: one,
the large amount of undeveloped multi -family zoned/designated land currently available
in Eagan, and two, Eagan's higher -than -average percentage of existing multi -family units.
Three reports have been prepared as part of this comprehensive review of multi -family
residential land. These reports, entitled "Multi -Family Residential Land Study Draft
Report" (July 1989), "Update Report" (December 1989), and "Comment Report" (March
1990), are supplementary to this Advisory Planning Commission staff report and should
be used for complete information regarding study background and methodology.
Each of the three "Multi -Family Residential Land Study" reports were presented to the
City Council for review and discussion. Based on the study reports, comments from
affected property owners, and Council discussion, the City Council recommended
Comprehensive Guide Plan amendments and/or rezorlings for 16 of the 23 study areas.
Staff was directed to schedule public hearings for those study areas recommended for plan
amendments and/or rezonings.
STUDY AREA I: Study Area I consists of three parcels, P.I.D.s 10-01600-010-06, 10-
01600-010-05 and 10-01600-012-07, approximately 16 acres in size (total). This study area
is currently designated for D -III Mixed Residential (6 to 12 units per acre) in the
Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan and zoned 'A Agricultural.
ai3
The attached data sheets from the 'Draft Report" (July 1989) and exhibits provide
additional descriptions of Study Area I.
CHRONOLOGY: A public hearing to consider a .Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment
and rezoning such that Area I would be designated D -I Single-family Residential (0 to 3
units per acre) and zoned R-1 Single-family Residential was held by the Advisory Planning
Commission on June 26, 1990. Based on the discussion and comments received at this
public hearing, the Advisory Planning Commission recommended that Study Area I be
considered for a plan amendment to D -II Mixed Residential (0 to 6 units per acre) and
a rezoning to R-2 Duplex Residential.
This recommendation of a D -II Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan designation and an
R-2 zoning was considered by the City Council at its July 17, 1990 meeting. The City
Council referred the Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment to D -II and the rezoning to
R-2 back to the August Advisory Planning Commission meeting for a public hearing.
Also at the June 26, 1990 meeting, the Advisory Planning Commission received a petition
from residents adjoining Area I requesting a playground be established on the property,
or a portion of the property. Parks and Recreation Department staff has reviewed this
request, and provided the following information.
Study Area I is within Park Service District #16, which is serviced by Sky Hill Park on
Blue Cross and Blackhawk Roads. Blackhawk Community Park is to the south, and will
soon be under design development. Access to this park is planned for in the future, but
it is unlikely to meet neighborhood needs typical in most neighborhood parks.
The 1982 Park Systems Plan did not anticipate any additional neighborhood park
acquisition in Park Service District #16, as it was anticipated that neighborhood needs
would be met by Sky Hill Park.
LEGAL ISSUES: Review of the material related to Area I does not indicate any special
or unique legal principles or issues to be resolved. The general principles outlined in the
May 15, 1990, memo included with this agenda should serve as a guide in the potential
plan amendment and/or rezoning of this area.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To recommend approval or denial of
a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment to change the land use designation of
approximately 16 acres within P.I.D.s 10-01600-010-06, 10-01600-010-05, and 10-01600-012-
07 from D -III Mixed Residential (6 to 12 units per acre) to D -II Mixed Residential (0 to
6 units per acre) and a rezoning of the same land from A Agricultural to R-2 Duplex
Residential.

MULTI -FAMILY RESIDENTIAL LAND STUDY
AREA I Area I consists of three parcels
GENERAL LOCATION: On the west side of Federal Drive
by Violet Lane,in the HE 1/4 of
Section 16
SIZE: 16 acres
Area I is of sufficient size to
support a variety of development -
intensity options.
ZONING: A
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
LAND USE DESIGNATION: D -III
EXISTING LAND USE: The two parcels on the north side
of Violet Lane each have a single-
family dwelling unit. The parcel
on the south side of Violet Lane is
vacant.
Single-family residential
development of Area I could
incorporate the existing dwellings,
while other development types may
require removal of these dwellings.
SURROUNDING LAND USE,
ZONING, AND COMP PLAN
LAND USE DESIGNATION: North - multi -family residential;
zoned R-4; designated D -
III
South - single-family
residential; zoned R-1;
designated D -II
East - I -35E
West - single-family
residential; zoned R-
1(PD); designated D -I
The existing uses surrounding Area
I are residential, both single- and
multi -family. Considering this
factor, residential development of
a density or design that would be
compatible with both single- and
multi -family uses would be
- PAGE I.1 -
a�e0010
appropriate.
TOPOGRAPHY: The terrain of Area I drops
steadily from the northeast to the
southwest. A small ravine runs
northeast/southwest through the
parcel on the south side of Violet
Lane.
The topography of Area I should be
suitable to most development
intensities, although those with
smaller building pads would likely
require less grading.
VEGETATION: A significant number of mature, but
scrubbish, trees are located along
the edge of the ravine. In
addition, the two parcels with
dwellings are landscaped.
Less -intense development could
potentially be designed around the
ravine and thus alleviate wholesale
removal of the natural vegetation.
Some of the landscaping around the
existing dwellings, given its
dispersal, would be removed
regardless of the level of
development.
ACCESS: Area I has access to Violet Lane, a
LOCAL STREET, and Federal Drive a
NEIGHBORHOOD COLLECTOR.
The access currently provided to
Area I is sufficient to accommodate
lower -intensity developments.
Direct land access would be allowed
to both Violet Lane and Federal
Drive.
UTILITIES: Sanitary sewer, storm sewer and
water service is available to all
parcels in Area I.
Utility service to Area I should
not be an issue.
ASSESSMENTS: Area I has been assessed at single-
family rates for storm sewer trunk
improvements. In addition, one

Development on Area I may receive
traffic noise from I -35E. Although
the noise levels received from this
roadway may not be consistently
severe, development design should
be sensitive to traffic noise
generated by principal arterials.

Member Merkley stated that the openings in the access should be
wide enough to accommodate semitrucks and that he would strongly
suggest sealcoating the lot.
Member Voracek stated that there was much material in the parking
lot to be cleaned up. Member Gorman asked why they had left South St.
Paul. The applicant stated that they had lost their lease due to an
option clause expiration.
Member Voracek moved, Markley seconded, the motion to approve a
conditional use permit to allow a trucking terminal in an LI (Light
Industrial) district located on Lot 11 Block 51 Eagandale Center
Industrial Park in the southeast quarter of Section 3, subject to the
following conditions:
1. A landscape plan shall be approved by City staff and
implemented by June 1, 1991.
2. Driveway openings shall be widened to at least 30 feet, and 25
feet radii shall be provided.
3. All applicable City Codes shall be complied with.
4. The parking lot shall be cleaned and sealcoated.
All voted in favor.

MULTI -FAMILY RESIDENTIAL I"D STUDY
Chairman Graves convened the next public hearing for the evening
regarding a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment to change the land use
designation of approximately 16 acres from D -III to D -II and the
rezoning of these same 16 acres from Agricultural to R-2. The subject
property is located on the west side of Federal Drive on Violet Lane
in the northeast quarter of Section 16 and is referred to in the City
Study as Area I.
Kristy Marnin of the Community Development Department provided a
brief overview of the City's Comprehensive Multi -Family Residential
Land Study. She then provided the background for Study Area I and
reviewed the staff report with the Planning Commission.

August 30, 1990
John Dobney, an attorney representing the smiths, the owners of a
parcel in Area I, stated that they supported the proposed change and
that the landowners had paid $34,500.00 in assessments which equated
to half the value of the parcel. He stated that there were apartments
with high elevation to the north and single family to the south but
at a reduced grade. These reasons and the proximity of the land to
35E compelled a use greater than R-1.
Harry Lemieux, representing himself and family members, stated
that they owned property in Area I and that they were in the shadow
of the apartments to the north. He urged rezoning to R-2 and stated
that the apartments in the area made single family use unfeasible. He
thanked the Advisory Planning Commission for their cooperation.
Tim Madasesky, a neighbor, stated that he represented others in
his neighborhood. He supported single family zoning for Area I and
had access and traffic concerns. He presented a petition to the
Advisory Planning Commission urging Single Family use.
Steve Bloom, a neighbor, reiterated that the neighbors in the
area wanted R-1 use for the property.
Member Gorman stated that he was not present when the original
suggestion for D -II use was made -in June and felt that the area could
be developed with an R-1 Single Family use.
Chairman Graves stated he had visited the area and spoken to
residents who stated they had no problem with an R-2 use for Area I.
He stated that the 35E traffic was loud and that an R-2 use would
serve as a buffer. Member Voracek agreed with Chairman Graves and
stated that the three parcels in Area I created a transition from
apartments to Single Family use. Member Merkley also agreed that D -II
was more appropriate than D -I and that D -II would serve a valuable
buffering purpose. He stated that the apartments elevation to the
north would preclude R-1 use for the property.
Merkley moved, Voracek seconded, the motion to recommend approval
of a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment to change the land use
designation of approximately 16 acres from D -III (Mixed Residential -
6 to 12 units per acre) to D -II (Mixed Residential - 0 to 6 units per
acre) for the following reasons:
1. It would provide buffering between the R-1 and R-4 uses.
2. The density in the area would be reduced and would be more
harmonious with the environment.
3. Traffic and noise would be reduced.

Chairman Graves opened the last public hearing for the evening
regarding a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment to change the land use
designation of approximately 105 acres from D -II to R & D, the
subject property being bounded by Lone oak Road, -Highway 55 and the
eastern corporate boundaries in the northeast and northwest quarter
of Section 12 and being designated' by the City as Multi -Family
Residential Land Study Area E.
Kristy Marnin provided background on the parcel and reviewed the
staff report with the Planning Commission.
Stan Pacarski, an owner of a parcel within Area E, stated he
wanted a statement notarized that his taxes would not go up due to
the Comprehensive Guide Plan change. City Attorney Dougherty stated
that the County collected the taxes and that the taxes were based on
the use. He further stated that the Green Acres would continue to
apply if the conditions were met. Mr. Pacarski asked if this was only
a Comprehensive Guide change or if this -was a rezoning also. Chairman
Graves replied that this was only a Comprehensive Guide change at
this stage.
Solly Robbins, another owner within Area E, reminded the Planning
Cor,mission that if changes were made to the Comprehensive Guide Plan,
that rezoning must take place within nine months of the change. He
stated that his partnership owned 45 acres in the area and had been
assessed on a D -II basis. He further stated that his parcels were not
contiguous. He stated that R & D use would be a quantum leap from
D -II and was incompatible with the property. He reviewed his
participation in the development to the north and further explained
that he felt Limited Industrial use would be more appropriate as a
transitional use for this property. He concluded that the land
couldn't be easily marketed to an R & D buyer due to the
configuration and location. Member Merkley asked what Light
Industrial uses consisted of. Ms. Marnin described these uses.

COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN AMENDMENTWZONING
MULTI -FAMILY RESIDENTIAL LAND STUDY AREA E
F. Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment, City of Eagan, Area E/Multi-Family
Residential Land Study, to Change the Land Use Designation of Approximately 105 Acres
from D-11 (Mixed Residential, 0 - b Units Per Acre) to R & D (Research and
Development). The Subject Property is Bounded by Lone Oak Road, Highway 55, and the
Eastern Corporate Boundaries in the NE and NW 1/4 of Section 12 --At its regular meeting
of August 28, 1990, the Eagan Advisory Planning Commission considered two areas from
the multi -family residential land study. One of these was Area E located between Lone
Oak Road, Highway 55 and the eastern boundary of the City in the NE and NW quarters
of Section 12. For additional information concerning Area E, please refer to the
Comunity Development Department report which is enclosed on pagos;p7through
q1for your review. Also enclosed on pages -0 is a copy of the
Advisory Planning Commission minutes related to this item. The Commission is
recommending approval of the comprehensive guide plan amendment as presented.
Subsequent to the Advisory Planning Commission meeting, several of the affected property
owners contacted the Community Development Department with questions regarding the
comprehensive guide plan amendment and its potential effects on their properties. In
order that the residents have time to research the issues involved and pursue answers to
their questions, they have requested a continuance of this item.. The Community
Development Director is recommending that a continuance, if granted, be to the October
16 1990 City Council meeting. A memorandum outlining this request is enclosed on page

COMPILED BY: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT &
CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE
BACKGROUND: Over the past year, the Community Development Department has been
studying multi -family residential land use in Eagan. Multi -family residential development
was designated by the City Council as a topic for review for two primary reasons: one,
the large amount of undeveloped multi -family zoned/designated land currently available
in Eagan, and two, Eagan's higher -than -average percentage of existing multi -family units.
Three reports have been prepared as part of this comprehensive review of multi -family
residential 1,and. These reports, entitled "Multi -Family Residential Land Study Draft
Report" (J�.3- 1989), "Update Report" (December 1989), and "Comment Report" (March
1990), are supplementary to this Advisory Planning Commission staff report and should
be used for complete information regarding study background and methodology.
Each of the three "Multi -Family Residential Land Study" reports were presented to the
City Council for review and discussion. Based on the study reports, comments from
affected property owners, and Council discussion, the City Council recommended
Comprehensive Guide Plan amendments and/or rezonings for 16 of the 23 study areas.
Staff was directed to schedule public hearings for those study areas recommended for plan
amendments and/or rezonings.
STUDY AREA E: Study Area E itself consists of one parcel, P.I.D. 10-01200-010-01
approximately 25 acres in size. However, the recommended change for Area E was to
also include all property within the triangle bounded by Lone Oak Road on the north,
T.H. 55 on the south, and the Eagan/Inver Grove Heights common corporate boundaries.
As such, this application involves 27 separate parcels, including the one parcel in Area E,
for a total of approximately 105. acres. This area is currently designated for D -II Mixed
Residential (0 to 6 units per acre) in the Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan and zoned
R4 Multiple Residential (Area E) and A Agricultural (all except Area E).
Study Area E is currently vacant. Of the remaining 26 parcels, approximately 10 have
existing single-family dwellings on them.
The attached data sheets from the 'Draft Report" (July 1989) and exhibits provide
additional descriptions of Study Area E.
CITY COUNCIL RECOMMENDATION: The City Council recommended consideration
of a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment such that Area E and all of the property
within the triangle bounded by Lone Oak Road on the north, T.H. 55 on the south and
the Eagan/Inver Grove Heights common boundary would be designated R & D Research
and Development. The City Council also recommended consideration of a rezoning to R-
D Research and Development for this entire area. However, only the plan amendment
is being considered with.this application.
Inclusion of all of the property within the above described "triangle" with changes made
to Area E was considered for several reasons. The analysis contained in the Multi -Family
Residential Land Study indicated that the existing residential land use designation was
inappropriate, not only for Area E but for all similarly designated land within the triangle,
given surrounding uses and aircraft noise impacts. The City Council has concurred with
this analysis, and recommended consideration of a change in the land use designation.
A change to the Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan from the existing D -II Mixed
Residential (0 to 6 units per acre) will ultimately lead to a rezoning of the property in
accordance with Minnesota law. Provided that the land use change is to R & D Research
and Development, the consistent zoning district is R -D Research and Development. The
minimum size for an R -D zoning district is 40 acres, but Area E itself is approximately 25
acres. As such, consideration of all of the property within the triangle along with Area
E alleviates inappropriate land use designations and provides an area of sufficient size for
future rezonings.
PREVIOUS STUDY/PROPOSAL: This application deals solely with a change in the
Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan for the subject area. No formal applications for
specific development are included with this application. However, future uses for the
subject area have been discussed previously, which provide a framework for consideration
of the change proposed with this application.
In 1988, City of Eagan Planning Consultant John Voss conducted a land use designation
study of this triangular area because of inquiries at that time about commercial and/or
industrial development for portions of the area. This study presented three alternative
land use plans showing combinations of limited business uses with residential uses, limited
business uses with limited industrial uses, and mixed commercial uses with limited
industrial uses (exhibits attached). Most recently, the owner of the western portion of the
triangular area has discussed development concepts which indicate mixed
commercial/research and development uses for his property.
Both the 1988 study and the Multi -Family Residential Land Study agree that the existing
residential land use designation is inappropriate, but differ in the recommended types/mix
of commercial and industrial uses. This difference can be explained in that the 1988 study
was in response to inquiries specifically about commercial/industrial development, and
concentrated on one area. The Multi -Family Residential Land Study, on the other hand,
is a city-wide comprehensive review of the appropriateness of all undeveloped property
designated for multi -family residential land uses. Its purpose was not to propose specific
plans for any particular parcel, but to propose alternative land uses if the current multi-
family residential land use was determined to be inappropriate. In the case of the
triangular area including Study Area E, an R & D Research and Development designation
was suggested as an appropriate land use because research/development type uses could
provide an appropriate transitional use buffer between the existing residential uses to the
south (research/development uses are intended to be compatible with residential uses) and
the mixed commercial/industrial uses to the north.
It should be noted that development of the entire 105 acre triangular area under an R
& D Research and Development designation may not occur, but rather a combination of
commercial and industrial land use designations may be appropriate as actual development
is approved. A change from the existing D -II Mixed Residential designation to an R &
D Research and Development designation does, however, indicate that the City has
determined that residential development of the area is inappropriate, and that
commercial/industrial land uses .which would be compatible with surrounding uses is the
most appropriate guide for future development.
PROPERTY OWNER COMMENTS RECEIVED: All property owners within the
described triangular area, plus those within 350 feet of the boundary of this area, were
mailed notice of this public hearing before the Advisory Planning Commission. In earlier
stages of the Multi -Family Residential Land Study, comments were solicited by staff and
received from the property owners of the one parcel within Area E. Comments contained
in the most recent correspondence received from these property owners (copy of letter,
dated April 6, 1990, attached) indicate that they are not opposed to a change in the land
use designation from residential to some form of commercial/industrial. However, the
property owners have concerns with a change to R & D Research and Development
because of the limitations it may place on their ability to develop their property.
In addition, as noted above, the property owner of the western parcel within the triangular
area has expressed an interest in a mix of commercial and industrial uses for his property.
LEGAL ISSUES: The application under consideration at this time is for a Comprehensive
Guide Plan amendment only. However, it should be kept in mind that since the action
being requested deals with a change in a comprehensive plan, that Minnesota law requires
the City to bring its zoning into compliance with the change in the comprehensive plan _
within nine months from the date of the change. Therefore, any zoning issues would have
to be preliminarily assessed at this time if a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment is to
be effectuated. As to the affect of rezoning property beyond the study area boundaries,
much greater detail is needed in the findings justifying the reasons for rezoning those
parcels, since those areas were not originally contained within the Multi -Family Residential
Land- Study. Moreover, additional information concerning recent history of the parcels
including the affects of assessments, if any, need to be evaluated prior to a legal opinion
from the City Attorney's Office.
As to Study Area E alone, the site has been levied assessments for storm sewer trunk
improvements at the multi -family rate. The rezoning of the property albeit to an increased
intensity, in this case Research and Development, needs to be reviewed in light of the
landowner's investment back expectations. Thus, if the landowner has significantly invested
in the R-4 use classification, a rezoning could lead to a taking despite the fact that the
property is rezoned to a higher use. Such a case of taking may in the end be moot if
damages cannot be proven, but the fact that a potential lawsuit may exist is important to
be kept in mind.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To recommend approval or denial of
a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment to change the land use designation of
approximately 105 acres of land bounded by Ione Oak Road on the north, T.H. 55 on
the south, and the Eagan/Inver Grove Heights common corporate boundaries from D -II
Mixed Residential (0 to 6 units per acre) -to R & D Research & Development.

With the exception of the property
to the north, the surrounding
properties either have or propose
to have low -intensity uses. The
property to the north, however, is
designated for high-intensity uses.
As such, some type of transitional
use may be appropriate.
TOPOGRAPHY: The site consists of rolling
terrain throughout, with low areas
adjacent to Highway 55.
- PAGE E.1 -
a3�
The topography of Area E should be
suitable for most development
intensities, although extensive
grading may be necessary for more -
intense development on the steeper
areas of the site.
VEGETATION: Area E contains scattered groupings
of dense vegetation throughout the
site, with most of the mature trees
on the northern part of the site.
Less -intense developments could be
sensitive to the existing
vegetation, although careful site
design of more -intense developments
may alleviate extensive removal of
the densely -vegetated areas. In
addition, landscaping requirements
for any proposed development may
mitigate the loss of existing
vegetation.
ACCESS: Area E has access to Lone Oak Road,
a MINOR ARTERIAL, and T.H. 55, an
INTERMEDIATE ARTERIAL.
Access ample to serve all
development intensities is
available, although direct land
access to T.H. 55 and Lone Oak Road
would be prohibited.
UTILITIES: Sanitary sewer, storm sewer and
water service lines are not
currently located immediately
adjacent to Area E. However, this
area could potentially be served by
proposed lines nearby.
Utility service to Area E should
not be an issue, although extension
of services to this area would be
necessary prior to any type of
development.
ASSESSMENTS: Area E has been assessed at multi-
family rates for storm sewer trunk
improvements.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Area E is within Aircraft Noise
Zone IV as identified in the
- PAGE E.2 -
a3 �
Metropolitan Development Guide and
is likely impacted by aircraft
noise. Residential and certain
types of educational/cultural uses
are conditional or provisional uses
in Noise Zone IV. As such, these
types of development must comply
with specific standards imposed by
the Metropolitan Council, including
structure performance standards for
noise attenuation and restrictions
on associated outdoor activities.
Future.occupants of development in
Area E should be informed of
potential aircraft noise.
In addition, Area E may receive
noticeable traffic noise from both
Highway 55 and Lone Oak Road.
Although the noise levels received
from these roadways may be not
consistently severe, development
design should be sensitive to
traffic noise generated by minor
and principal arterials.

Re: Proposed Amendment to Eagan Comprehensive Guide Plan
and Proposed Re -Zoning of Area E
Dear Mr. Runkle:
Since my letter to you of February 7, 1990 concerning the above -
captioned subject, I have obtained further detailed information
regarding the limitations on the land uses under the R&D/R-D
proposed re -zoning for the triangle land which was the subject of
my letter of February 7, 1990. With this information in mind, the
partnership of RES.Investment Co. has come to the conclusion that
the proposed R&D/R-D development zoning would not be realistic to
accomplish the anticipated objectives of providing a practical
commercially planned development for that triangle of land.
We have come to this conclusion because we believe that the
R&D/R-D zoning is more appropriate to larger tracks of land under
one ownership and that the entire neighborhood area would be
better served by the approach that John Voss contemplated in the
study made by your office and John Voss in April 1988 of the land
(Alternative #2) within the triangle. We were under the
impression that the R&D/R-D zoning would be more consistent with
that type of approach than the approach we learned is contemplated
by the R&D/R-D present proposal.
Pursuant to the discussion I had with Kristy Marnin today, I now
wish to inform you that this letter will serve to document our
change of position for the record.
we are still supportive of a re -zoning for the entire triangle
whichwould_permit _commercial development uses for the triangle

uses, John Voss Alternative #2, consistent with the obviously
changing character of the use of the land in recent years. We
sincerely believe that a R&D/R-D zoning as presently contemplated
would practically eliminate this triangle area from commercial use
consideration by prospective current buyers because of the
configuration of the triangle and the many different landowners
involved.
Thq type of zoning that would blend limited business usage and
light industrial uses compatible with the area would preserve the
present rate of orderly development in the area without denying
the owners economically viable use of their land.
It is our position, therefore, that adopting a less restrictive
zoning than R&D/R-D land use for the triangle would be a more
practical way of accomplishing both the city and the landowners'
goals for the triangle.
We wish to thank you in anticipation of your usual courtesy and
cooperation in resolving this matter to the betterment of the
community and the landowners involved.

MULTI -FAMILY RESIDENTIAL LAND BTUDY
Chairman Graves opened the last public hearing for the evening
regarding a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment to change the land use
designation of approximately 105 acres from D -II to R & D, the
subject property being bounded by Lone Oak Road, Highway 55 and the
eastern corporate boundaries in the northeast and northwest quarter
of Section 12 and being designated by the City as Multi -Family
Residential Land Study Area E.
Yristy Marnin provided background on the parcel and reviewed the
staff report with the Planning Commission.
Stan Pacarski, an owner of a parcel within Area E, stated he
wanted a statement notarized that his taxes would not go up due to
the Comprehensive Guide Plan change. City Attorney Dougherty stated
that the County collected the taxes and that the taxes were based on
the use. He further stated that the Green Acres would continue to
apply if the conditions were met. Mr. Pacarski asked if this was only
a Coaprehensive Guide change or if this was a, rezoning also. Chairman
Graves replied that this was only a Comprehensive Guide change at
this stage.
Solly Robbins, another owner within Area E, reminded the Planning
Commission that if changes were made to the Comprehensive Guide Plan,
that rezoning must take place within nine months of the change. He
stated that his partnership owned 45 acres in the area and had been
assessed on a D -II basis. He further stated that his parcels were not
contiguous. He stated that R & D use would be a quantum leap from
D -II and was incompatible with the property. He reviewed his
participation in the development to the north and further explained
that he felt Limited Industrial use would be more appropriate as a
transitional use for this property. He concluded that the land
couldn't be easily marketed to an R & D buyer due to the
configuration and location. Member Markley asked what Light
Industrial uses consisted of. Ms. Marnin described these uses.

Page 11/EAGAN ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
August 30, 1990
Marlo Illig, 540 Lone Oak, had concerns regarding his property
value upon rezoning.
Irvin Langer, 600 Lone Oak, stated he was concerned about the
homeowners. He said that Lone Oak would be upgraded with sewer and
water and that the rezoning would erode the property values and that
this was unfair. He stated his property was for sale.
Kathy Weinert agreed with Langer and asked for a clarification of
R & D uses. Chairman Graves the current Comprehensive Guide
classification.
Mike Gehr stated he represented Douglas Decoster, an owner in the
area. He presented a brief summary of a concept favoring Mixed
Commercial Industrial and R & D uses. He proposed a Mixed Commercial
use east, and R & D use west, of a designated line.
Jerome Weinert, 610 Lone Oak, asked why the Comprehensive Guide
Plan was being changed if no current development was proposed. He
suggested that the problem be addressed when the developments come
forth.
Marilyn Lakler, 510 Lone Oak, stated that City Hall was taking
away her rights.
Willie Abbott, 526 Lone Oak, again requested clarification of R &
D uses. Ms. Marnin read the permitted uses from the Code which
consist of the following:
D labs.
2. General offices.
3. Light manufacturing.
4. Agricultural uses.
5. Any combination of the previous four.
Mr. Illig asked if they would be noticed of any development in
the future. Chairman Graves replied that they would.
Holly Koonan, 640 Lone Oak, asked what the present zoning
allowed. Chairman Graves explained that the present zoning allowed
Duplex and R-4 uses. Ms. Koonan stated she preferred R & D to
a 4 3
Page 12/EAGAN ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
August 30, 1990
Duplexes. Mr. Kaparski reiterated that he wanted to be protected from
rezoning.
Member Hoeft asked if Agricultural uses were allowed in an LI
zoning. City Attorney Dougherty stated that he would review the Code
but in any event, current uses would be grandfathered. Member Hoeft
asked if Light Industrial classification had been considered. Ms.
Marnin stated that it had and explained the process whereby R & D was
settled on.
Member Voracek asked Ms. Lakler for clarification as to why she
felt her rights were being taken away. Ms. Lakler stated she had
lived in the area and emotionally invested in the property. She felt
she couldn't change the City's decision. Member Voracek stated that
the Planning Commission's specific action wouldn't prevent general
development of the property in any event.
Chairman Graves asked Ms. Marnin for clarification as to why
Residential was not appropriate. Ms. Marnin stated the traffic noise,
surrounding land uses, and airport noise all led to the conclusion
that Residential uses were not appropriate.
Member Merkley stated that this area would be better served if it
was not guided for Residential 'uses and that R & D would buffer the
Residential areas. He suggested that perhaps a portion of the western
part of Area E could be Commercial.
Member Staehli asked if a D -II use would pass the Airport
Standards due to its location in the noise corridor. Ms. Marnin
stated she was unsure. Ms. Staehli reiterated that R & D use would be
preferable and better for the residents. Member Gorman agreed and
suggested that Industrial uses wouldn't be precluded but that they
could be weighed at the time of development. Member Voracek had
concerns that the property would have to be rezoned within nine
months of the Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment.
Merkley moved, Hoeft seconded, the motion to recommend approval
of a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment to change the land use
designation of approximately 105 acres from D -II (Mixed Residential -
0 to 6 units per acre) to R & D (Research and Development). The
subject property is bounded by Lone Oak Road, Highway 55 and the
eastern corporate boundaries in the northeast and northwest quarters
of Section 12. Approval was recommended for the following reasons:
1. Reduction of density in the area.
2. Traffic would be lessened with the resultant decrease in noise
and pollution.
Page 13/EAGAN ADVISORY PLANNING CommISSION MINUTES

3. R & D would provide a transition and buffer for the area.
4. R & D would be more appropriate due to the airplane noise.

Our offices have been contacted by the Eagan Community Development
Department with regard to certain requirements in the Rahn Cliff
Crossing Planned Development Agreement as well as Rahn Cliff 2nd
Addition Development Contract which you have failed to implement. It
is our understanding that under the Planned Development Agreement,
which was amended per your request last fall, you were to relocate
the previously improperly placed Burger King sign to a properly
designated spot east of where it presently illegally exists. In
addition, as a condition to amending the PD to allow the Burger King
sign to be relocated, it was the agreement of the parties, that the
additional sign on the Burger King site for Rahn Cliff Crossing
identification be eliminated. It has been nearly a year, since this
relocation agreement was made with the City, however, no action has
been taken to so relocate the sign.
Secondly, in the development of Rahn Cliff 2nd Addition, a mistake
was made in reference to the setback requirement vis-a-vis the
parking stalls as set forth in the Development Contract. Parking
stalls in contravention of the City Code, presently exist in the area
of the setback for the entry drive off Rahn Cliff Court. Again while
this information was brought to your attention almost a year ago, no
further action has been taken by you to correct this error.
while we understand that you have partially submitted plans for
variances and further amendments to the Planned Development Agreement
and the Development Contract, your actions subsequent to the
subrlission of the plans make it appear that these submissions were
made in contemplation of continually delaying correcting.or taking
appropriate action to comply with the City requirements.

Please be advised by this letter that at the regular scheduled
Council meeting of September la, 1990, action will be requested of
the City Council to declare you in default of the Planned Development
Agreement, as amended, as well as the Development Contract for Rahn
Cliff 2nd Addition the defaults are as follows: illegal placement of
the Burger King Sign and the illegal construction of parking lot
stalls within the designated setback along Rahn Cliff Court.
Thereafter, we will be taking appropriate action at the direction of
the City to enforce these agreements.
Having had a full year in which to comply with the Planned
Development Agreement, as amended, and the Development Contract for
Rahn Cliff 2nd, is more than adequate time in which to bring your
affairs into order. While it is unfortunate that these measures have
to be taken, we sincerely hope that voluntary action is taken on your
part to correct these problems prior to the City needing to take any
further action.

DALE RUNKLE, COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR
FROM: JIM STURM, CITY PLANNER
DATE: SEPTEMBER 13, 1990
RE: RAHN CLIFF CROSSINGS
Over the past year, the planning department has been trying to
resolve site -related issues within the Rahn Cliff Crossings Planned
Development, such as modifications to the signage and parking lot
construction relating to both the P.D. agreement and development
contract.
As you know, the Burger King sign was improperly installed late
last fall. Mr. Smith submitted a Cashier's Check to the City so
we could have it moved in the spring. However, since that time he
has been in the process of requesting a Planned Development
Amendment to allow signage modifications on the Drovers Bank lot,
adding building -mounted signage along Cliff Road for Cheers Wine
and Spirits and to leave the Burger King sign in its present
location. That is the reason we did not cash the check and have
the Burger King sign moved.
After months of trying to get the proper information and exhibits
so we could take the request to the Advisory Planning Commission,
the applicant requested a continuance until the September 25th
meeting. If action was taken, the soonest the item would be to the
City Council would be either the first of second Council meeting
in October. Mike Dougherty sent a letter to Mr. Smith stating that
this item would be brought before the City Council next Tuesday
evening. If the Council wants to proceed with the Planned
Development application to the APC, I will forward their comments
as directed. The concern I have with not processing the Planned
Development Amendment through the Advisory Planning Commission, is
that individuals and existing Eagan businesses are not having their
chance to state their proposed changes, such as representatives of
Drovers Bank. They would like to have another ground sign with
their name and ReMax Realty on it, however staff cannot allow
modifications to the overall signage plan until the proper
procedures and amendments are followed.
asa
The parking lot issue is another situation though. Mr. Smith
clearly agreed to resolve the setback problem last year and it was
never done and the construction season is rapidly fading away.
This situation is unfortunate; errors do happen during
construction, but as you can see every attempt was made to resolve
these issues prior to bringing them to the Council. Attached is
a letter from Mike Dougherty to Mr. Smith and copies of
correspondence to and from the City to Mr. Smith.
If I can be of additional help, please advise.

Dear Mark:
On Friday, June 15, Dale Runkle and l met with you to discuss your Planned
Development Amendment application for the Rahncliff Crossings P.D. At that time, you
were told that the City would need updated exhibits to attach to the Planned
Development Amendment and to provide the information to the Advisory Planning
Commission and City Council. These were not provided, and as a result the Planned
Development Amendment will not be heard by the Advisory Planning Commission in
July. It was also mutually agreed that you would address, in writing, the parking
setback error along RahnCliff Court and the placement of the Burger King sign. This
was also not done.
Attached is a copy of your letter acknowledging the parking setback situation and
agreement to rectify the problem. The correspondence received by the City on July
19, 1990 stating that you wanted to leave the situation "as is" is in direct conflict to
what was previously agreed upon.

Re: RahnCliff - Planning Commission/City Council
Dear Jim:
The following analysis is our report for the City of Eagan:
1. DriveyAy Entrance Issue: See overhead of site plan on file With City.
We do not agree with the public works opinion that the thirteen foot
setback instead of the twenty feet creates a problem which needs to be
corrected. The public works department wants us to take out four to
six parking stalls and plant grass in its place so as to give the
twenty foot setback for clearance problems and elimination of snow
storaga. The site has four spots for snow storage set in the back of
the :—iding with storm sewer locations. Furthsrmcre, we need this
pa:� --+g due to the overflow of the Burger King restaurant. We are
iLnder .larked for Burger King and to request us to take away six parking
sta1:S to as to provide an area for snow storage creates a larger
problem than it solves. Please note that we have ample area on the
site plan to store snow and drain the melting. Ste therefore, ask that
you allow this thirteen foot setback to stand as it is constructed and
not to request us to take away parking to as to comply with the twenty
foot setback requirement.
2. ji-nate on Side of Building_ We request that the ordinance be followed
to the letter and that we be entitled to place signage on the sides of
our retail buildings. The ordinance specifically states that one sign
for each busitess be allowed for each major street frontage. The
retail building which has Cheers nine and Spirits as a tenan.-
side of the building that faces Cliff Road. Ws request thy.-
+nti+ ' to sign this side and we will follow our sign st a ..Ji _
;,..,di- -ly lit letters 24" in height.
She request that the sign ordinance be followed and that the City
Eagan iasue sign permits for the si-es of the retail buildings.

3. provers Bank Sign: Drovers Would like to redo the bank entrance sign
to as to include the identity of the second floor tenant "Remax Realty"
on the entrance sign. The current sign is half as large as the
proposed 6 R 8 foot sign. The same style and material would be used
and we request that the City allow this expansion of four feet in
length so as to accommodate the second floor tenant. Also, the current
entrance sign is confusing to customers and they have been going in the
wrong Way to the bank. This larger entrance sign would cure this
problem.
Enclosed find a fax copy of the proposed sign.
We will not need any exhibits except for the site plan on file. We will bring
a rendering of the Cheers sign but feel it in not necessary in that ve are
complying with the current ordinance.

Dear Mark:
On December 5, 1989 the City Council approved a Planned Development
Amendment to revise the overall pylon sign exhibit at Rahncliff
Crossings. The purpose was relocation of the Burger King pylon and
elimination of the project identification pylon. Placement of the
Burger King sign is to be approximately 120' east of the present
location and 10' within the property line.
The work was to take place last fall, however frost was a factor
and it was agreed the job would be done this spring as soon as the
ground permitted. It is mid-May and the City would like the sign
relocated immediately. If not done immediately, the City will use
the cashiers check to offset the cost of completing the project.

RE: NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING
GALAXIE CLIFF PLAZA 2ND ADDITION
BACKGROUND: On Wednesday, September 12, the neighborhood meeting
was held at fire station #5 along Galaxie Avenue to discuss
driveway location alternatives for Fire Station #5.
The Galaxie Cliff Planned Development approved in 1988 required
that Plaza Drive line up with West Wind Trail on the east side of
Galaxie Avenue. That action severed the applicant's property
(Outlot D) creating the small three-quarter acre parcel. With the
setbacks and Limited Business zoning, it makes this area rather
difficult to develop. The applicant, Mr. Bill Soules, has offered
to sell the property to the City for $78,400 or at a rate of $2.40
per sq. ft. (32,670 sq. ft. x $2.40 = $78,400). Mr. Soules is not
interested in selling only a portion of the Outlot. His offer is
to sell it to the City and the City can develop it in any way it
desires.
Mr. Soules has been marketing the entire property at a rate of
$3.50 per sq. ft. with assessments paid. He claims they can
demonstrate that value based on current and past transactions.
During the course of meetings between staff and Mr. Soules, he has
agreed to deduct all site -related costs in order to arrive at a
price that excludes assessments and parks dedication fees, etc.
It was stated at a previous Council meeting that he would be
willing to transfer title of the property based on no down payment,
a credit for levied and contemplated assessments, a credit for the
estimated park land dedication fees on the remainder of the entire
tract and the balance payable in five annual installments with
interest at commercial bank rates on unpaid balances. Mr. Soules
felt this was the best approach if the City were to acquire the
land since it would require no "out of pocket" expenses to the
City. At the neighborhood meeting, Mr. Soules again stated that
this offer still stands.
NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING: In attendance were Ken Southorn, Mike
Foertsch, Bill Soules, Greg Maloney, George Schenk, four Eagan fire
fighters, and myself. The issue with the neighbors deals with
where the fire station driveway should ultimately connect to 1)
Galaxie Avenue in its present location 2) directly to Plaza Drive
or 3) both. The neighbors have been concerned that if both
a�o
connections are allowed, it would serve as a shortcut to the Plaza
Drive/Galaxie Avenue intersection, thus creating noise and safety
problems. The neighbors are now in agreement that they would
desire one driveway connection to Plaza Drive with the existing
drive on old Galaxie Avenue, completely removed and sodded (see
exhibit). The plan shown would have all the car traffic on the
south side of the median with outbound fire trucks on the north
only. The wide south side would allow the return of the fire
trucks so they wouldn't have to back into the station from Plaza
Drive. Mr. Soules again stated that he felt the cost of the
