He read a statement into the record and indicated that a cassette recording would be made of the hearing, and it was noted that no one appeared on behalf of the owners of the property. The statement covered the procedure, including the right to request additional evidence and testimony to be submitted, the right to file Briefs on behalf of interested property owners or the City, and the opportunity within 30 days of the closing of the hearing, to submit proposed findings of fact, conclusions and order regarding the assessments. Tom Colbert, Public Works Director, reviewed the feasibility report covering Project 0305, started in 1980 and ordered in in 1980, and the water trunk improvements that were installed as a part of the Wescott Road improvements, including storm sewer, some sanitary sewer crossings and trunk water main. He noted that the assess- ments were proposed to cover the 80 acres north of Wescott Road owned by the McCarthy family, approximately 40 acres south of McCarthy Road and owned by McCarthy, and 40 acres south of Wescott Road in the proposed Westbury Addi- tion, which had been assessesd at an earlier time. The assessment hearing was first held in July of 1983 at which time objections were filed. A subsequent hearing was held in December 1983 and the City Council then rescheduled the hearing to March 6, 1984 in order to employ an appraiser to recommend to the City Council what benefit would accrue from the installation of water main to the McCarthy property. The assessment roll was introduced noting that 1980 assessment rates, including both area assessments for water purposes and lateral benefits from trunk water main, were used covering the three parcels involved with total assessments of approximately $90,000.00. Notice of the hearing was published in the legal newspaper and notices were sent to the affected property owners. A letter of objection signed by Patrick McCarthy personally, and Patrick McCarthy as Personal Representative of the Estate of Dennis McCarthy, dated February 26, 1984, was included in the record, as were overhead projections of the area proposed to be included in the assessment roll and also the feasibility report, together with notices and other applic- able documents relating to the assessments. Mark Parranto, appraiser hired by the City, presented a detailed written appraisal report and orally reviewed the appraisal at length with the City Council. It was his opinion that the benefit to the property exceeded the amount of the assessment and at 7:50, noting there were no objections nor appearances on behalf of the property owners, Smith moved, Thomas seconded the motion to close the hearing but to leave the assessments open for 30 days in • order to allow interested parties to submit proposed findings, conclusions and order to the Council and further, to submit any other information that was deemed appropriate regarding the assessments. All voted in favor. K Council Minutes March 6, 1984 • CEDARVALE 2RD ADDITION - PROJECT #373 -ALT. Mayor Bea Blomquist then convened the public hearing regarding storm sewer and driveway improvements in Cedarvale 2nd Addition, along Cedarvale Blvd. for Project 0373 -Alternate. Mr. Colbert stated that on January 17, 1984 a public hearing was held on Project 0373 discussing various alternates for the elimination of the service drive to Old Trunk Highway 013 adjacent to Rax, Perkins, Country Club Market and Minnesota Federal Savings & Loan. There was no clear consensus at that meeting by the affected owners and staff was directed to review other potential alternates and meet with the affected property owners, which he stated has now been done. Bob Rosene, the Consulting Engineer detailed the new proposal, including driveway improvements and storm sewer installation. Four properties are involved and proposed to be assessed. Roger Youngquist, Assistant V.P. of Minnesota Federal had questions about the storm sewer installation. Represen- tatives from Rax Restaurant had numerous questions and were told that both left turn in and out from the Rax Restaurant onto Cedarvale would be per- mitted; that Outlots A through'D which consist of the service road, now owned by DCR, will be sold to the adjacent property owners for a nominal price; and, • that the assessments are proposed to cover a ten year period. The Rax repre- sentative indicated that a request will be submitted to the Council to relo- cate its pylon sign. Sheldon Kranz of Country Club Markets had phoned Mr. Colbert and indicated he was unable to be present, but Country Club supported the proposal. The Mayor had concerns that all owners would maintain the green area adjacent to Cedarvale Blvd. and it was suggested that screening be included in the project near the Country Club Market, or that Country Club would do its own installation of screening and landscaping with City approval. Mark Parranto appeared on behalf of the owners of Mister Donut shop and stated that the owners now support the project but would recommend that blacktop overlay on the Home Juice private drive be installed. There were no objections to the project but there were questions about the private service drive and it was suggested that the remaining private drive between the bowling alley and Country Club be improved under a separate project. After considerable discussion, Wachter moved, Thomas seconded the motion to close the hearing, to approve the report and to authorize the preparation of plans and specifications which would include landscaping and screening to be approved by the City staff. All voted in favor. Smith then moved, Egan seconded the motion to direct the City to acquire an option for the service drive adjacent to Cedarvale Blvd. from the Donut shop to the Country Club Market; further, that a feasibility report be prepared covering the improve- ment of that service drive with the intention of assessing the property owners and potentially vacating the service drive at a later time. All voted in • favor. 4 Council Minutes • March 6, 1984 The application of Perry Kieffer for conditional use permit for commer- cial storage in an Agriculturally zoned district on Dodd Road was next con- sidered. Mr. Kieffer requested that the application be continued to the April 3, 1984 regular meeting and upon motion by Wachter, seconded Thomas, it was resolved that the application be continued. All voted yes. SUNSET STN ADDITION - PREUXINARY PLAT The application of Joseph Hoffman for preliminary plat approval of Sunset 5th Addition containing one acre and located on Dodd Road was next presented to the Council. The applicant called and indicated he would not be able to be present. Councilmembers had concerns about access to the property to the west and it was noted that the parcel on the north has been purchased by a Church denomination and it was further understood that access through that parcel may • be possible.

After discussion, Wachter moved, Egan seconded the motion to forward the application to the Advisory Planning Commission for further review regarding road access to Dodd Road. All voted yea. • EU -1 CREST ADDITION - LOT 12, BLOCK 1 - VARIANCE An application from Mark Parranto for front setback variance for Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition was submitted to the Council.

Notices were not mailed to the surrounding property owners but the only property owner within 200 feet was Jerry Thomas. Mr. Thomas indicated he had no objection and waived the right to object and further stated he would abstain from voting. After discussion, Smith moved, Egan seconded the motion to authorize the front. setback variance for Lot 12, Block 1, and to grant a blanket variance for Lots 12 through 20 for terrain and vegetation purposes and if a request is made for Lots 21 through 25, that a special publichearingbe scheduled before the Planning Commission; further, the building inspector and public works departments approve the minimum set- back for Lot 12 through 20.

Egan moved, Blomquist seconded the motion to adopt the policies and priorities without amendments. All voted in favor. SUNSET 4TH ADDITION - PRELILKERARY PLAT The City Council again discussed the application of Tri -Land Company for preliminary plat approval of Sunset 4th Addition, particularly relating to the southerly tier of lots along Hackmore Drive. It was noted that -the Council's Resolution of February 21, 1984 required both an escrowing of funds and that Outlots be provided on the southerly tier of lots. Mr. Colbert recommended that the Council require only one of the two conditions and recommended that a prepayment be required from the applicants. Smith moved, Thomas seconded the motion to amend the conditions provided in the February 21, 1984 motion approving the application, to provide for a prepayment by the applicants for the projected costs for the improvements to be assessed against the north side • of Hackmore Drive, including street and utility improvements. All voted in favor. There was some reluctance on behalf of the Councilmembers, however, to authorize the spread of the cost over all of the lots in the subdivision, and noted it appeared to be more appropriate to spread the costs only over the southerly tier of lots. Mr. Colbert reviewed with the City Council both in written form in the packet, and verbally at the Council meeting, a proposal to revise the schedule of administrative fees in the case of private utility and street improvements within new subdivisions. He indicated that the work load of the staff was in excess of the amount of reimbursement received from the developers in case of installation of private improvements, and noted that during 1984, it appeared that the percentage will increase from about 50% of the subdivision improve- ments to 60% - 65% for privately installed. Several alternates were sug- gested, including a minimum fee of $1,000.00 with a sliding reduced scale or a fixed percentage of the projected costs. Blomquist moved, Thomas seconded the motion to direct the staff to propose a schedule of fees for installation of improvements by developers under private contractors, including review of plans and specs, construction review and management, financial bond calcula- tion review, final inspections, etc. All voted yea. • E Council Minutes • March 6, 1984 SIGNS THROUGHOUT THE CITY Objection had been received by residents of the City to staff and Councilmembers regarding the proliferation of signs throughout the City.

The Advisory Commission reviewed each of the subject park parcels and after a thorough discussion, has recommended to the City Council that grants be submitted in the following priority: 1. Coachman Park 2. Schwanz Lake Park 3. Capricorn Park In addition, the Advisory Commission has recommended to the City Council that the City staff and City Attorney be authorized to begin negotiations for acquisition of approximately 1.4 acres from three private property owners whose property touch upon the south shore of Schwanz Lake. It was noted that acquisition costs could come from part of a combined development/acquisition proposal or from the park site fund as may be necessary. Members also noted an express concern for the requirement of providing matching funds for each grant application. They requested staff to review and restructure said grant applications to reduce the amount of the City's match to a level acceptable to the Council and sustainable within the park site fund. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve modify or reject the Advisory Commission's recommendation for the submission of thl three priorty parks grant applications for Fiscal Year 19851 Attachment KV/kf / MEMO TO: ADVISORY PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION FROM: KEN VRAA, DIRECTOR OF PARKS & RECREATION DATE: FEBRUARY 23, 1984 SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR 1985 LAWCON/LCMR PARK GRANTS At the February meeting of the Advisory Parks & Recreation Commis- sion, staff made a brief presentation on possible changes for the fiscal year 1985 LAWCON/LCMR Grants program. Although the Metropolitan Council has not adopted its final review criteria, it would be appropriate for the Advisory Parks and Recreation Commission to determine its priorities for grant applications to insure that these applications can be submitted on a timely basis. Therefore, staff has prepared the following information relative to potential park sites for your consideration. 1. Coachman Park - In 1979 the City received an acquisition grant to acquire a .portion of now Coachman Park. This grant was awarded to the City under the entitlement of a community athletic complex for Section 9. The amount of the grant award to the City was for $99,000. Of this amount approximately $33,000 was of state LCMR funds. Because there is a $200,000 maximum award for C LCMR funds to any single project, there remains at least $170,000 of funding which can still be sought for development of the this park area. The working proposal currently being reviewed for a possible park bond referendum, indicates that Coachman Park's development would cost approximately $220,000, thus making it eligible for the funding under the LCMR/LAWCON cost -haring formula. 2. Schwanz Lake Park - The designation of Schwanz Lake Park as a community park may give this park area some priority for grant funding. However, there are three identifiable problems at this time which may affect the awarding of funds to the City for this park. These three problems are as follows: 1) the City does not currently own the property although it has been designated for acquisition under the Lexington South PUD. Assuming that Mr. Curry follows. through with his intentions of deeding this property to the City by October of 1984, this concern will be eliminated; 2) there remains approximately 1.4 acres of additional shoreline aquisition from three private property owners whose lot lines touch upon the south shore of Schwanz Lake. This aquisi- tion was noted in the systems plan study. Should the determination be made that a grant should be submitted for Schwanz Lake Park for development, direction should be given to the City Attorney's office to proceed with negotiations for purchase of this land. Acquisition costs could become a part. of the grant application under a combined development/acquisition proposal; DIRECTOR OF PARKS & RECREATION/ADVISORY COMMISSION r February 23, 1984 \ Page 2 3) Access to Schwanz Lake Park is to be from the proposed future South Wescott Hills Drive. Because the timing of this road construction is uncertain, it may affect the ranking of the grant. This can be somewhat mitigated by the inclusion of a temporary access road on the alignment of the future road bed. Including the optional shelter building for Schwanz Lake, development costs are estimated at $390,000. Under current formulas and at this grant maximum, the City could receive a total of $150,000 assuming sufficiently high rankings. 3. Capricorn Park - Capricorn Park has been designated as a quasi -community park facility under the park system plan. Estimated cost for the development of this facility is $460,000. Like Schwanz Lake, assuming high enough grant ranking, the City could expect to receive as much as $150,000 toward these development costs. Capricorn Park, because of its size, service area, accessibility by major roadways, as well as site suitability, lends itself toward being ranked as a significant project. 4. Rahn Park - Staff has considered the Phase 2 approach Cto the development of the athletic fields at Rahn Park. However, the City has already received, under the previous acquisition and Phase 1 development grant, $170,000. Current guidelines prohibit more than $200,000 maximum for any single project and, therefore, would limit the City to receiving only an additional $30,000 toward the Phase 2 development. 5. Thomas Lake Park/Blackhawk Park - The Director of Parks and Recreation has been approached by Mr. Ed Dunn to determine the interest of the City in acquiring, through purchase, the parkland designated under the existing PUD's for dedication, and in the case of Blackhawk Park, the offer to sell additional land to the south of Black - hawk Lake. Under the proposal to acquire through purchase parkland shown to be dedicated under the PUD agreement, the City would acquire the land with a grant application allowing the City to have earlier control of the property and then reinstating a cash dedication requirement on the adjacent land parcel which would generate future cash dedication fees exceeding the City's share in the cost acquisition procedure. This would be similar to acquisition of designated park property along Blackhawk Lake. Staff has a concern for the rankings of acquisition applications at this time as the ranking criteria is now heavily weighted toward development type projects. Staff has been considering C I DIRECTOR OF PARKS & RECREATION%ADVISORY COMMISSION February 23, 1984 Page 3 a possible development project for Thomas Lake Park but without acquisition of the property or acquisition pending, it is very unlikely the City would receive approval of a grant application. The Advisory Commission should make a determination of which grant applications it would like to have submitted for the fiscal year 185 grant cycle. Members should keep in mind that it may now submit more than one grant application. Members must also keep in mind that matching funds will be required by the City should the grants be awarded to any one or all of the projects submitted. There is insufficient funding within the park site fund to cover these matching costs and could only be made available through a successful parks bond referendum or special assessment levy.

It is anticipated that corrections and changes will be made today and tomorrow to the development agreement. Therefore, it is recommended that action be considered by the City Council to adopt the development agreement between the Minnesota Jockey Club, Inc., and the City of Eagan. The action should be , made subject to any changes that are foreseen before the City Ad- ministrator or City Attorney before final signature which is usual and customary for all development agreements.

Fire Department -- There are no items to be discussed under Fire Department at this time. POLICE DEPARTMENT B. Police Department -- There are no items to be considered under Police Department at this time. PARKS & RECREATION DEPARTMENT C. Parks & Recreation Department -- There are no items to be considered under Parks & Recreation Department at this time. Agenda Information Packet March 6, 1984 City Council Meeting • Page Two PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT D. Public Works Department --Item $1: Private Development Adminis- trative Fee Schedule -- On January 1, 1983, the City Council ap- proved a revision to the bonding requirements associated with de- velopment within the City. The present bonding requirements stipu- late that a financial guarantee must be placed with the City guaranteeing at least 608 of the cost of public improvements (streets & facilities necessary to service the proposed subdivision. This financial guarantee requirement is the same whether these pub- lic improvements are installed under City contract (guarantee for payment of assessments) or installed privately by the developer (guarantee for completion of installation). Prior to this revision, public improvements installed privately be developers were required to place a financial guarantee in the amount of 1258 of the estima- ted cost of improvements while those that were constructed under a public contract did not require any financial guarantee to insure the collection of assessments. As can be seen, this new revision has made installation of public improvements more equitable and at the developer's discretion as to whether it is performed privately or through a City contract. Subsequently, during 1983, the City noticed that approximately 45-558 of the subdivision improvements were performed privately by the developers. During 1984, it appears that this percentage will increase to approximately 60-658 for private installation. The Public Works Director is concerned about the negative impact that private development has on the City's budget situation. Those improvements performed under public contract generate 4.08 in revenue for administrative services rendered by the Engineering, Maintenance and Special Assessment Divisions for plan review/con- tract management, assessment searches/spreads and construction/final inspection, respectively. With the increasing number of develop- ments installing improvements, this additional revenue is no longer available to supplement the general fund budget to finance the per- sonnel within the various divisions of the Public Works Department which is necessary to insure compliance with City standards. How- ever, those subdivisions which improvements installed privately require varying levels of staff review and assistance by the three divisions. However, there is no revenue generated to offset these increasing costs as there are with public contracts installed im- provements. • Therefore, the Public Works Director would like to discuss with the City Council a new policy whereby those subdivisions that have • public improvements installed privately would be charged an adminis- trative fee to cover the costs of plans/spec review, construction /AR • Agenda Information Packet March 6, 1984 City Council Meeting Page Three -R review/management, financial bond calculations/review/reductions, construction/final inspections, etc. Due to the fact that there are no special assessments associated with private development of public improvements, the full 4.08 administrative fee would not be necessary. Therefore, the Public Works Director would like to suggest that a minimum fee of $1,000 be established to be paid as a condition of final plat approval and that a sliding scale starting at 1.58 for the first $100,000 and decreasing by 0.18/$100,000 to $1,000,000. All costs incurred by outside consultants, inspection services, etc., are billed directly to the City and forwarded to the developer for reimbursement. However, we presently have no means of passing on similar costs for the increasing time spent by staff personnel. The Public Works Director would like to discuss this policy in further detail with the Council so that a formal policy and fee schedule can be prepared for adoption at the next meeting. • ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve or deny the con- cept of administrative fee schedule for public improvements instal- led privately, and, if approved, direct the Public Works Department to prepare a formal schedule for review by the Council at a later date. • 3 Agenda Information Packet March 6, 1984 City Council Meeting Page Three -90 There are six (6) items on the agenda referred to as the Consent Agenda requiring one (1) motion by the City Council. If the City Council desires to discuss any of the items in further detail, those items should be removed from the Consent Agenda and place under Additional Items unless the discussion required is brief. PROJECT 396, FEASIBILITY REPORT A. Project 396, Receive Feasibility Report/Order Public Hearing (Westbury Addition - Streets and Utilities) -- On February 7, 1984, the City Council received a petition and subsequently ordered the preparation of the feasibility report for the installa- tion of streets and utilities to service the first phase of the Westbury Addition in the southwest corner of Wescott and Lexington Avenue. Concurrently, the Council also ordered the preparation of detailed plans and specifications due to the waiver and guarantee of costs by the applicant. This feasibility report has been completed and is now being presented to the Council for their consideration of scheduling . a public hearing. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To receive the feasibility report for Project 396 (Westbury Addition - Streets and utilities) and order the public hearing to be held at 7:00 p.m. on April 3, 1984. If Agenda Information Packet March 6, 1984 City Council Meeting • Page Four PROJECT 395, FEASIBILITY REPORT B. Project 395, Receive Feasibility Report/Order Public Hearing (Lexington Avenue - Trunk Watermain/Booster Station) -- At the February 7, 1984, Council meeting, the City Council authorized preparation of the feasibility report for the installation of a trunk watermain from Wescott Road to Diffley Road and the construction of a booster station to service the high pressure zone. This feasibility report has been completed and is being presented to the Council for their consideration of scheduling a public hearing. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To receive the feasibility report for Project 395 (Lexington Avenue - Trunk Watermain/Booster Station) and order the public hearing to be held at 7:00 p.m. on April 3, 1984. • Agenda Information March 6, 1984 City Page Seven Packet Council Meeting GRADING PERMIT APPLICATION/WESTBURY ADDITION C. Grading Permit Application - Westbury Addition (Gabbert Development) -- The staff has received an application to perform the grading operations associated with the development of the Westbury Addition first phase. All application fees, bonds, insurance certificates, and grading plans have been submitted, reviewed and approved by staff and found to be in order for consideration by the Council. The grading of the first phase will be in accordance with the preliminary plat that was approved by the Council on January 17, 1984.

They routinely request the City of Eagan to similarly review these properties to determine if there is any public need or benefit associated with this property prior to its placement on the open market for resale. These properties are described as follows: 1. Parcel #10-02700-012-25, Wilderness Run Fifth Addition (Page 2. Parcel #10-02700-012-51, Ches Mar Second Addition (Page 9 ) 3. Parcel #10-88800-106-00, Zehnder Acres (Page /Q ) City staff has reviewed the above three parcels and found that the City would have no interest in any of these parcels with the exception of Parcel #10-02700-012-51. It would be in the • City's best interest to request that this property be classified as public conservation land and transferred over to the City of Eagan as a part of our future well site/Ravine Park development. As can be seen, this tax forfeited property is a five-foot sliver of land located between the well site and the west right-of- way of Ches Mar Drive. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve the classifica- tion of the tax forfeited parcels as follows: Parcel #10-02700-012-25 (Non -Conservation) Parcel #10-02700-012-51 (Conservation/Public Interest) Parcel #10-88800-106-00 (Non -Conservation) C, J and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute all related documents as may be required.

Resignation of Public Works/Planning Department Secretary -- The Public Works Director has received a letter of resignation from Judy Chaffee -Heald who has been the de- partmental secretary for the Public Works Director and City Planner since July of 1980. The resignation becomes effective on the last day of work, March 9, 1984. Due to the fact that this position is critical to the functions of the two departments, the Public Works Director is re- questing that the resignation be accepted and authorization be given for an immediate replacement in accordance with standard City policies and procedures. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To accept the resig- natin of Judy Chaffee -Heald as Public Works/Planning de- partmental secretary and authorize advertisement for the replacement of this position. • 2. Authorization to Fill Vacancy of Special Assessment Aide Presently, the Public Works Department shares a clerk/ typist position as a special assessment aide with the Finance Department as a utility billing clerk aide. This position is presently filled by Nancy Ohm. The approved 1984 budget increased the 0.5 allocation of this position to a full time clerk/typist position to continue the as- sistance for utility billing while adding clerk/typist assistance to payroll, purchasing and general accounting functions. The Public Works Director, City Administrator and Finance Director have reviewed the situation and deter- mined that this 1984 full time position could best be ful- filled by the transferring of Nancy Ohm. Subsequently, this leaves a 0.5 position vacant for a special assessment aide to the special assessment division of the Public Works Department. Therefore, the Public Works Director is requesting authorization from the City Council to advertise for a permanent part-time (20-30) hours/week to fulfill this special assessment aide posi- tion. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To authorize the advertisement for a permanent part-time special assessment aide in accordance with present City policies and proce- dures.

COLBERT,,DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS v DATE: FEBRUARY 24, 1984 SUBJECT: PROJECT 305, WESCOTT ROAD ASSESSMENTS (TRUNK WATER MAIN) In July of 1983, the original final assessment hearing was held for this project. Due to objections that were received at that time, I he public hearing was continued until December 20, 1983. At that time, the City Council formally approved the final assessment roll as was originally prepared. However, within the required 30 days of that final assessment hearing, the City received a notice of ap- peal pertaining to the amount of the assessments. i Subsequently, on February 7, 1984, the City Council cancelled the final assessments as levied on December 20, 1983 for Project 305 and ordered a new final assessment hearing to be held on March 6, 1984. In reviewing the original final assessment roll that was prepared in comparison to the benefits received from the adjacent properties, it was discovered that the assessments associated with lateral bene- fit from trunk water main were not properly allocated to the abut- ting property. Therefore, the following is a new cost allocation which should be used in preparing a new final assessment roll to be Presented at the final assessment hearing scheduled for March 6, 1984: PROJECT 305R WESCOTT ROAD TRUNK WATER MAIN /(0 PARCEL NUMBERS ASSESSMENT IMPROVEMENT 10-01500-011-76 10-01500-012-76 }0-02200-01(�- 1 N 10-02200-011-04 Trunk Area Water 1) Total Area 39.3 Ac 38.3 Ac 39.83 Ao 39.92 Ac 2) Less Street R -O -W -3.0 Ac -3.0 Ac 2.99 Ac NA credit 1.2 Ac 3) Less Ponding Easement -13.2 Ac -1.2 Ac 3.00 Ac Credit 4) Less 201 future R -O -W -4.6 Ac -6.8 Ac 6.77 Ac 7.74 Ac - credit 30.98 Ac 5) Net Assessable Area 18.5 Ac 27.3 Ac 27.07 Ac $700 6) Rate/Acre $700 $700 $700 $21,686.00 7) Area Assessment Amount $12,950 $19,110 :18,949.00 Lateral Benefit From Trunk Water Main 1) Assessable Footage 2,175' 1,290' 85n' NA 2) Rate/L.F. $10.90 $10.90 $13.05 NA 3) Lateral Assessment Amt_§23,707.50 $14,061.00 $11,092.50 NA $33,171 $30,041.50 (TOTAL ASSESSMENT $36,657.50 $21,686.00 /(0 0 • ReL-e%,IL I )-gi- ?` February 22, 1984 E.

Director of Public Works 9402b Date: .2 - '� 3 J a4 SCOPE: This project provides for the construction of storm sewer with related • driveway and boulevard improvements within and adjacent to Cedarvale 2nd Addi- tion. This report is the result of various meetings with the affected proper- ty owners to review the proposed improvement project presented at the public hearing on January 17, 1984 and to determine the extent of improvements neces- sary to meet the needs of each business and the City of Eagan. Therefore, this report, Project No. 373 -Alternate, presents an improvement project which best addresses the needs of each business and the City. Estimated costs and a preliminary assessment roll are included at the back of this report. CHANGES TO ORIGINAL FEASIBILITY REPORT: It is proposed as part of this alternate report that the private service drive located westerly of Country Club Market remain as a private service drive and be maintained by the adjacent property owners. It is also proposed to maintain the private service drive between Mister Donut and Home Juice Co. • No storm sewer laterals will be constructed under this report to service the parking lots of Country Club Market (Parcel #050-04) or Cedarvale Lanes (Lot 1, Block 1 Cedarvale 2nd Addition). FEASIBILITY AND RECOMMENDATIONS: The project is feasible from an engineering standpoint and is in accordance with the Master Utility and Street Plan for the City of Eagan. The project as outlined herein can best be carried out as one contract. DISCUSSION: A. Storm Sewer - Storm sewer proposed herein includes storm sewer within the existing drainage ditch along the south side of Cedarvale Boulevard as previ- ously recommended. However, it is proposed at this time to extend the storm sewer westerly to the existing culverts at Rahn Road and easterly to the ex- isting culvert beneath the driveway entrance to Home Juice Co. • Page 1. 9402b A5' • Catch basin inlet structures are required for each of the private drives onto Cedarvale Boulevard. Also included is a short extension of storm sewer to the private drive located between Rax Restaurant and Country Club Market. B. Driveway and Boulevard - Driveway and boulevard improvements are separated into two parts. Part I provides for improvements to Rax and Perkins Restau- rant, and Minnesota Federal. These. improvements include removal of the pri- vate service drive and extending each drive to Cedarvale Boulevard as shown on the attached drawing. Grading of the boulevard area and sodding is required due to removal of the existing service drive and construction of storm sewer. It is also proposed to construct an 1-1/2" thick bituminous overlay on the ex- isting service drive located southerly of Minnesota Federal which will remain in service and become their main entrance. • Part II provides for boulevard improvements for Country Club due to storm sewer construction. Also included is construction of concrete curb and gutter and bituminous mixture for patching adjacent to the new catch basin inlet structure located at the northerly end of the private service drive between Rax Restaurant and Country Club Market.

The Comprehensive Guide Plan designates this parcel as R -I (Residen- tial Single District) with a density of 0-3 dwelling units per acre. The applicant is fulfilling this requirement by subdividing a one acre lot into two lots where the square footage would exceed the R-1 zon- ing criteria and the density would be within the 0-3 dwelling units per acre. COMMENTS The preliminary plat meets all of the criteria set forth in Section 11 and 13 of the State Code for lot size requirements in an R-1 Dis- trict. The proposed plat is small and each of the lots within the plat would contain 21,840 square feet. The applicant was not aware of what the exact right-of-way dedication should be for Dodd Road, and even including the dedication, the two lots proposed would far exceed the R-1 zoning standards. In review of this plat, normally there should be a concern in regard to direct access on a proposed collector road. However, in review of this particular plat, the lots directly south in Saddlehorn Addi- tion all take direct access onto Dodd Road. Therefore, restricting this particular plat from taking direct access wouldn't be consistent with what has happened in the past along Dodd Road.

RMH/jach E 3c- • MEMO TO: THE ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION, C/O DALE C. RUNKLE, CITY PLANNER°,•,:.....• FROM: RICHARD M. HEFTI, ASSISTANT CITY ENGINEER DATE: JANUARY 16, 1984 SUBJECT: SUNSET 5TH ADDITION PRELIMINARY PLAT The Engineering Division of the Department of Public Works has the following comments regarding this proposed development to be con- sidered by the Advisory Planning Commission and City Council. DRAINAGE/TOPOGRAPHY This proposed development poses no problems with future drainage or grading due to its location and size. UTILITIES Utilities of sufficient depth, capacity and size exist within Dodd Road to provide individual services to each lot. However, the neces- sary permits for connection and roadway excavation must be•acquired. STREETS ® Existing streets providing potential access to this proposed develop- ment consist of Dodd Road which borders this proposed development along the east side. Dodd Road is a planned City collector street but exists as a residential street in width in the interim. Subse- quently, it is City policy that access to City collector streets be limited to provide traffic capacity and safety required for the col- lector street designation. Subsequently, staff would recommend again- st allowing access along Dodd Road as proposed. Access could better be suited off of an internal east -west street which could border the north boundary of this proposed development. Not only would this be more desirable for this proposed development but would also open up better access to Parcels 021-26 and 022-26. As it stands now, Parcel 021-26 would be extremely difficult to develop and provide access to the easterly portion of it. Therefore, staff would.recommend•the ow- ner of this property to submit a sketch of proposed uses for this de- yelopment so that a logical plan could be followed in developing this corner, southwest of County Road 30 and Dodd Road. However, if this preliminary plat is approved, staff would recommend that only one access be allowed on Dodd Road and be centered over this parcel. Also, it should be a requirement that turnarounds be provid- ed for each lot so that the vehicles do not have to back out to gain access to Dodd Road. • RIGHT-OF-WAY/EASEMENTS If this preliminary plat is approved, then a 40' half right-of-way shall be dedicated for Dodd Road. This is the minimum half 29 ENGINEERING REPORT SUNSET 5TH ADDITION PRELIMINARY PLAT JANUARY 16, 1984 • PAGE TWO right-of-way required for City collector streets. In addition, a 10' utility easement shall be dedicated adjacent to all publicly dedicated right-of-way along with a 5' drainage and util- ity easement being dedicated along all lot lines. ASSESSMENTS All trunk related assessments have been levied over this parcel (012- 26) with the exception of trunk area storm sewer. Subsequently, this area shall -be -responsible for its trunk area storm sewer assessment at the rate in effect at the time of final plat approval. At this time, it would amount to $2,276.00 (42,218 square feet X $0.0539 per square foot). All costs for servicing each lot with sewer and water and driveway construction shall be the sole responsibility of this development. I will be available to discuss any aspect of this report with the Ad- visory -Planning Commission at their meeting on January 24, 1984. Respectfully submitted, Richard M. Hefti, P.E.

Mark Parranto for a Front Setback Variance for Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition -- The City Planner received an application from Mr. Mark Parranto requesting a front setback variance for Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition. For additional information on this item, refer to the City Planner's report; a copy is enclosed on pages through ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON, THIS ITEM: To approve or deny the variance request as submitted for a front setback on Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition. SPECIAL NOTE: The City Planner's report will be enclosed with the Administrative Packet on Monday. Do- • CITY OF EAGAN SUBJECT: VARIANCE APPLICANT: J.E.PARRANTO, MARK PARRANTO LOCATION: LOT 12, BLOCK 1, HILLCREST ADDITION EXISTING ZONING: R-1 (RESIDENTIAL - SINGLE DISTRICT) DATE OF PUBLIC HEARING: MARCH 6, 1984 DATE OF REPORT: MARCH 5, 1984 REPORTED BY: DALE C. RUNKLE, CITY PLANNER APPLICATION SUBMITTED: An application has been submitted requesting a 10 -foot root set ack variance for Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition, Section 33. COMMENTS Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition is one of the two most southerly lots platted in this addition. Originally the street plan pro- posed for this plat was a through street providing access to the property to the south. However, in the planning process it was determined that this through street was not needed and the City directed the applicant to provide a cul de sac for this street on the southerly end of Richard Lane. With the cul de sac now being constructed, Lots 11 and 12 have somewhat different lot configurations than what would have been approved A with a through street. As you can see, Lot 12 has a depth going east -west of approximately 300 feet and should have adequate room to put a home on this particular lot. Access is now obtained through the cul de sac. The front to back depth of the lot is approximately 72 feet and siting the house on this particular lot from this access is difficult in accordance with the setbacks required. Also the topography breaks and drops off on this particular lot also making the home at a lower elevation the further south you would require the house to be p aced. Therefore, the additional 10 feet would make the house not as low from, the street as if it would be required to be put at the regular 30 -foot setback distance. Therefore, with.the irregular configura- tion and access of this lot, the topography warrants the review of the Council for this 10 -foot front setback variance. The applicant has also indicated to City staff that he would like the Council to review a blanket variance situation on all of the lots in Hillcrest Addition. As you review the lots on • the west side of Richard Lane, the topography drops off substantial- ly from east to west. Therefore, each additional foot the developer • CITY OF EAGAN J.E.PARRANTO, MARK PARRANTO - VARIANCE MARCH 6, 1984 PAGE TWO can save in locating a home to the west, the less fill he will have to provide for that lot. Therefore, would the Council consider a blanket variance on this addition because of the topography or would the Council prefer to consider each individual variance when an application is submitted? This should be discussed by the Council so staff can have direction as to how to proceed with this proposed development. If the variance which has been submitted and placed on the March 6, 1984, City Council agenda is approved, it should be subject to the following conditions: 1) All other setback requirements and City ordinance require- ments shall be adhered to.

Ratification of Local 320 Contract, Public Works Maintenance - The City Administrator has received a letter from Minnesota Teamsters Public and Law Enforcement Employees Union Local #320 regarding Public Works Maintenance employees affirming a settlement based on a 4�% increase for 1984 and 5% for 1985. An offer had been made by the City for 4�% in 1984 and 4�% in 1985 with the maximum guideline that the City would increase the offer to 5% for 1985 if the Public Works Maintenance group agreed on a two-year contract. The union has accepted the counter offer regarding all 22 items as presented by the City Administrator in a letter dated January 30, 1984. The only exception being Item 17 where the salary was increased for 1985 consistent with guidelines set forth by the City Council. Therefore, action is in order to ratify a two-year contract with the Public Works Maintenance group under the conditions specified in the attached correspondence found on pages +4q _51 ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve or deny final ratification of the Public Works and Park Maintenance Division contract. 47 rMs 3795 PILOT KNOB ROAD.

We have met on several occasions and hopefully this proposal will represent a settlement that both your collective bargaining unit and the City Council can approve for 1984/1985 contract duration. The following discussion represents the City's offer to each of the 21 demands that were presented in a letter dated November 10,1983, from your office: 1) The City is recommending a two (2) year contract that would be retroactive to January 1, 1984, and continued through December 31, 1985. 2) The changes you have recommended under Article 3.5, "it will be the duty of .the supervisor in each department to establish safety regulations, instruct workers in accident prevention, and provide safety meetings for employees on a regular basis" is acceptable to the City. 3) The changes recommended in Article 12.1 are not. acceptable as new contract language. However, the City has maintained a policy that if maintenance workers are called out prior to 7:00 a.m. on a given workday, they are allowed to work until 3:30 which normally amounts to overtime for the employee. The management wishes to retain flexability regarding this item. 4) The City is not agreeable to the change in Article 12.1 to pay shift differential. Each Public works/Parks Main- tenance employee understood with their acceptance into public employment that night call -outs are required to THE LONE OAK TREE ... THE SYMBOL OF STRENGTH AND GROWTH IN OUR COMMUNITY I CITY OF EAGAN/MR JACK MOGELSON • January 30, 1984 Page 2 maintain a desirable public service. 5) The City is not in agreement with amending Article 12.8. 6) The City does not agree with the change in Article 12.9 adding compensatory time. 7) The City is not in agreement with Article 12.9 regarding the request for double time for weekends and triple time for major holidays when overtime occurs. 8) The City is not agreeable to eliminating "but not necessarily equal" as requested as an amendment for Article 12.10. 9) There is no change desired for Article 13.1 by the City. 10,11 & 12) The City recognizes the need for a policy that allows career movement within the three maintenance divisions, which include Utilities, Streets and Parks and Recreation mainte- nance. It is not in the best interest for the City to allow movement at will within the departments without some type . of employee commitment to train for a different maintenance division. Therefore, the City accepts a policy whereby an employee who can verify that he or she has prepared independently to learn skills of a particular maintenance division, may qualify for a transfer to that division based on 1) meeting all minimum qualifications, 2) obtaining licenses or skills required within a specified time frame, 3) seniority with Public Works/Parks/Maintenance divisions, 4) acceptance of the next lowest pay classification for one (1) year upon transfer to a new division, and 5) a one- year probation will be imposed for any employee who transfers to a new division. It is the City's contention that if an employee wishes to change his or her career ambitions by transferring to a new division, a reduction in pay for one year should not impact their long-term career objectives and at the same time that employee should learn the new maintenance division well enough within the year that they could be considered at the normal rate of pay provided by the City at the end of the one-year probation. 13) The City proposes a change to Article 13.4 to be consistant with the City's personnel policy. (See attached) 14) The City is agreeable to the change recommended in Article 13.5 which deletes "regarding classification". r\ U IE CITY OF EAGAN/MR JACK MOGELSON January 30, 1984 • , Page 3 15) The City is not agreeable to the additional holidays as requested in Article 14.1. 16) The City is not agreeable to the vacation change as outlined in Article 15.2. 17) The City has increased its offer in salaries to a 4.58 increase in 1984 retroactive to January 1 and a 4.58 increase for 1985. 18) The City has recognized a deficiency in the clothing allow- ance and is therefore increasing its clothing allowance from $94.95 to $150.00 per year which would remain in effect during 1984 and 1985. The use of this clothing allowance will be consistent with a compliance policy drafted by management and agreed to by the union steward. 19) The City is not in agreement with the changes in Article 17.3 as recommended. 20) The City is not in agreement with an increase in life insur- ance as outlined'in 17.3. • 21) The City is- not in agreement with the changes recommended in Article 17.4. 22) The City would agree to a written addendum to the contract that allows City employees who also are volunteer firemen in the City of Eagan to respond to fire calls during working hours without loss of pay.

Contract 84-2, Receive Bids/Award Contract (Wescott Trunk Sanitary Sewer) -- At 9:30 a.m. on Friday, March 2, formal bids were received for the above -referenced contract. Enclosed on page 5 3 is a bid tabulation of all bids submitted with a comparison to the feasibility report and engineer's estimate. All easements necessary for the construction of this work have been acquired through a "quick take" condemnation action under the direction of our City Attorney. Therefore, there are no problems associated with awarding the contract at this time. As can be seen, we have requested bids for three alternates associated with this construction as follows: Alternate No. 1: We requested bids for a polyvinyl chloride pipe (PVC) as compared to the standard reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) to determine if any cost savings would be incurred through the use of this special design material for this size of pipe through the anticipated depth zones. Alternate No. 2: Alternate .No. 3: The standard base bid for the contract provides for an aggregate base access road to the lift station from the future Denmark Avenue through City park property. This alternate requests the costs associated with paving this access road with a bituminous surface to provide an all-weather access road with minimal maintenance and erosion. This requests an alternate bid to install the "grass paver" concrete patio block that would allow grass growth but still provide instability for equipment over the access road to the same lift station. This is similar to the material that was installed to the Almquist Lake lift station recently. Public Works Director and Consulting Engineer will be evaluating the bids and any possible alternate equipment bids that were submitted and will be providing a final recommendation to the Council at the meeting on Tuesday, March 6. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To receive the bids for Contract 84-2 (Wescott Trunk Sanitary Sewer) and award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder, and authorize the mayor and • City Clerk to execute all related documents.

These plans have now been completed and are being presented to the Council for their review and subsequent authorization to advertise for bids under Contract 84-4. As was discussed previously, these plans incorporate an alternate bid for the exterior painting of "EAGAN" at three locations on this reservoir so that the Council can consider its inclusion at the time of contract award based on bids received. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve/modify/deny the plans for Contract 84-4 and, if approved, authorize an adver- tisement for bid opening to be held at 10:30 a.m. on Friday, March 23, 1984.

Contract 84-5, Receive Bids/Award Contract (Fire Administration Building - Parking Lot) -- At 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, March 1, official bids were received pertaining to the improvement of the parking lot to the new Fire Administration building (old city hall) as a part of the overall Municipal Center Bond Referendum project. Enclosed on page S6 is the bid tabulation showing the results of this bid opening. This project contained two alternates described as follows: Alternate No. 1: Alternate No. 2: Alternate No. 1 requested bids for the installa- tion of a concrete driveway for the first 30 ft. coming out of the new garage addition. Staff wanted to evaluate the cost benefit of this alternative through actual bid prices due to the heavier pieces of the equipment that will be used in this sloped access drive (fire engines, medical emergency vehicles, etc.). Alternate No. 2 requested a deduct bid if City maintenance crews were to install the aggregate base prior to the surface paving. This was done to try and evaluate any potential cost savings to the overall project that could be accomplished through the use of City forces. The Public Works Director will be evaluating the bids for the contract and the various alternates and will be making a final recommendation to the Council at the meeting on Tuesday, March 6. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: Receive the bids for Contract 84-5 (Fire Administration Building - Parking Lot), award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute all related contract documents. _5S • • E FIRE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING - PROJECT 392 CITY CONTRACT 84-5 PARKING LOT EAGAN, MINNESOTA j7 1984 Opening Time: 10:30-A.M.

Hedges City Administrator TLH/hnd E • MEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR & CITY COUNCILMEMBERS FROM: CITY ADMINISTRATOR HEDGES DATE: MARCH 2, 1984 MINNESOTA JOCKEY CLUB APPLICATION As you are all aware, five (5) applications were received by the Minnesota Horse Racing Commission yesterday, of which the Lone Oak application was one of those submitted. The applicant has given the City seven (7) copies of a portfolio that summarizes the Lone Oak site. Included in your packet is your copy of the portfolio. The City Administrator will retain one copy in his office while the other copy will be at the front counter for review by the public. The City Administrator received the City of Eagan's copy of the application for the Lone Oak site from the Minnesota Racing Commission today. The application is similar to the three -volume proposal that was submitted by Group W Cable when they submitted their application to the Joint Commission. Included in the application are two large volumes that include application and exhibits, and then a third and fourth volume that includes all the bond information, and a fifth volume which is a copy of the environmental impact statement. • Also enclosed is a copy of the portfolio that each member of the City Council's received. There is one complete set of the applications which will be kept in the office of the City Adminis- trator and are certainly open for public inspection at any time. Please mark your calendars for Thursday, March 8, when the environ- mental impact public hearing will be held in the Eagan City Council chambers at 7:00 p.m. Mayor Blomquist will open the meeting and act as a facilitator for questions, answers, etc. City staff, in conjunction with consultants for the applicant, will field the questions as they are raised by the public. The other date of significance is Tuesday, March 13, the date the Minnesota Racing Commission has selected to hold the public hearing in the City of Eagan. Unfortunately it does conflict with the evening activities at the legislative session sponsored by the League of Minnesota Cities, however, the date is fixed and cannot be changed by the Minnesota Racing Commission. At that meeting, it is my understanding that the Minnesota Racing Commission will conduct the public hearing and, again, the City Council's participation will be more as observers. Enclosed for your reference is a copy of the letter that the City Administra- tor received from the Minnesota Racing Commission, a letter from Jim Curry Investment Companies to the Racing Commission members, and a resolution that was passed by our neighboring city, Inver Grove Heights, supporting the Eagan horse racing facility. These documents are enclosed on pages A 3 through. • The City Administrator and Steve Pflaum have had a lengthy discus- sion and it is apparent that the development agreement should W INFORMATIVE MEMO • March 2, 1984 Page 2 be completed before the racing commission holds its all -day review of the applications on March 12. Therefore, the City Administrator will have to work next week in meetings with the attorneys, BRW, and applicant to finalize the development agreement for either adoption by the City Council on March 6 or possibly the special City Council meeting prior to the EIS hearing on March 8. The first meeting is set for Monday at BRW's office. It is very important that the development agreement be exercised before the March 12 date. SPERRY NOISE UPDATE Benchmarks for noise monitoring were established at the pump house and Don Giblin's house for the before and after noise monitoring by MPGA. Both noise monitorings before installation of equipment have been completed --the first on February 23 and the last on February 29. According to Sperry, the equipment will be installed within the next two weeks and hopefully noise monitoring can be performed before the April 3 City Council meeting. Since the City Administrator has received copies of correspondence regarding this matter, it seemed appropriate to keep the City Council updated and, therefore, copies of corres- • pondence are enclosed on pages (�j through for your information.

Elmer Anderson Ladies and Gentlemen of the Minnesota Racing Commission: I write this letter to recommend that you choose Eagan as the Horse Race Track location. I have owned property and done business in Eagan since 1969. At the peak of my real estate activities in Eagan, I owned 2,000 acres. I developed almost 1,000 lots for housing and today my owned land holdings have been reduced, by sales and development, to a few hundred acres. With this kind of activity, I have worked with the city staff, • elected officials and citizens groups such as the Chamber of Commerce and the Council for Urban Mobility. I must confess I am an absolute admirer of everything that makes up Eagan. I have never seen a better run city. (Note: I have done business in Edina when my partner and I built Pentagon Office Park.) Eagan has an outstanding staff and dedicated, talented people on their City Council, Planning Commission, Park Board etc. EagaL has lots of spirit and enthusiasm for the horse racing facility. Just as important, Eagan has an excellent tax base so they have been able to afford to do things right. The industrial park in north Eagan has made it possible, I believe, for Eagan to have one of the lowest tax rates in the seven county metro area for many years. Service from the city has always been excellent. Today Eagan is booming! It is the fastest growing area in the metro area. The Cedar Avenue and 494 bridges are performing their functions beautifully. Eagan is now home for about 29,000 people, I believe, and some 25,000 work in Eagan!. Long before the year 2000, there will be 500000 people living in Eagan and probably as many working there. • • • • I Why? Because it has THE perfect location. Uniquely, it is near both St. Paul and Minneapolis. If a race track can succeed in Minnesota, Eagan is the place where the chance for success is greatest, I believe. I'also know the people behind the Eagan race track.- They are local. They are highly respected' and highly successful businessmen. I have total trust -in them. 'Frankly, I'm really thrilled that local people are behind the Eagan site. This has been a long letter and I appreciate your reading it.

In this capacity, 1 am requesting yourLjagency's assistance in reviewing the concerns of my neighbors and `k with respect to the potential for ground water and air pollution caused by Sperry's operations. Accordingly, I am • writing this letter to formally request, on behalf of the concerned citizens living near to this plant, that as a part of its review in determining the propriety of issuing an operating permit that Sperry's manufacturing procedures and manufacturing facilities be carefully reviewed and that such an operating permit only be granted upon a clear finding that its factory cannot and will not create a health hazard. 1 am sure you are as aware as we are of the havoc reeked upon the environment in the San Francisco Peninsula area (Silicon Valley) by Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel Corporation and in Pheonix by Motorola. In case you may have missed it, I am enclosing a copy of an article which appeared in the 3uly 25, 1983 issue of Time Magazine. This is the same industry that Sperry has brought to our back doors. The reason why 1 believe it is necessary for the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency to become involved is that: 1. Sperry cannot be trusted to police itself; and 2. The Eagan building inspectors charged with the responsibility at the local level have neither the expertise nor the instrumentation to monitor and evaluate Sperry's manufacturing operations as far as measuring possible harmful chemical emissions in the air, in the ground water or through the sewer systems. 69 • Minnesota Pollution Control Agency February 16, 1984 Page Two Fabrication of semiconductor chips Involves the use of a variety of highly toxic and carcinogenic chemicals. The semiconductor processes used by the manufacturers in Silicon Valley resulted in significant escapes of these chemicals into the environment. Sperry is known to be using manufacturing processes originally developed by Fairchild. We are concerned that any such escapes at the Sperry Plant might go unreported and uncorrected. Mere verbal assurances by a Sperry facilities planner that his company's procedures are safe are not enough. After all, the Titanic was unsinkable. Then too, Sperry's reluctance to address its noise pollution problem when an expenditure of only $5,000 - $6,000 is involved is indicative of a mindset that would place a higher priority on company profits than on environmental concerns. It is also evident to us that the City of Eagan does not have on its staff persons with the knowledge and experience in this high-tech area which are required to detect and appropriately deal with the hazards to the environment occasioned by unintentional spills, leaks or other mishaps or the intentional failure to properly install and maintain the air/water filtering and purifying equipment. • The residents in the Timberline area feel that it was extremely poor planning to locate an industrial plant for the production of integrated circuits on a high volume basis only a few hundred feet from a residential neighborhood and that the City officials were remiss in not following the zoning restrictions which were put in place to protect our neighborhood when it granted its building permits to Sperry. For all of the foregoing reasons, we feel it is essential that the Minnesota Pollution Agency step in and review the overall operations of the Sperry Plant so that the Timberline residents and other citizens of Eagan drawing thew water from the nearby wells can be sure that this area remains a safe place to live and to raise children.

Nikolai 1504 Red Cedar Road Eagan, MN 55121 Dear Mr. Nikolai: r ^ 41aA YEoe_ - La Your recent letter clearly stressed the concern of our Timberline neighbors about Sperry's follow through on its commitment to reduce noise levels emanating from our Semi- conductor Headquarters Building. I can assure you that I have personally reviewed both the complaints and the internal engineering effort. Sperry committed in October to install an attenuator on the stack which generated the higher noise levels and to install deflectors on all six of the stacks. This project has progressed through planning, engineering design, compet- itive bidding, long lead material contracting, and contractor contracting. The actual construction will start shortly, • dependent on the weather. We are making a sincere effort to meet the nineteen week schedule and will meet or beat our March 31st commitment. As previously stated, Sperry is investing over $30,000 in specific noise abatement measures. We are doing this because Sperry is concerned about its relationship with its neighbors and the local community. The noise contro- versy, which has developed, is particularly difficult because of the complexity of measuring and of controlling a phenomenon which has many sources. I am convinced that the project, now in its final phases, will resolve the noise issue. I appreciate your patience and I am sure you will be pleased with the result.

The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) staff examined • information about the equipment for the recent plant expansion and the associated air emissions. Emissions of acids and caustics from the Sperry factory in Eagan are abated by air pollution control equipment. Based on the information available to the MPCA, air emissions from the plant do not create a health hazard. At such time as an operating permit is prepared for this plant, the MPCA will consider again whether any air emissions create a health hazard and whether further testing and/or more effective control is needed.

Unfortunately, your letter did not address many of the points I was attempting to raise, namely: 1. Why did Sperry, in September, provide a report to the City Council indicating decibel levels below the MPCA Standards when it must have known that such data was inaccurate? (I have been advised that when going out for bids, it advised prospective bidders that noise levels of 104 dB existed at the roof and that the noise levels were 63-65 dB 300 meters from the building.) 2. Why was it unilaterally decided that it was unnecessary to equip each of the six stacks on the roof with an attenuator? (Sperry first advised the City that each stack would have an attenuator and a diverter.) 3. Why was the 19 -week lead-time estimate not met, even though the scope of the project was reduced when Sperry decided that only one attenuator would need to be procured and installed? (The 19 -week estimate was given on October 16, 1983 and the period should have ended February 24, but on February 7, Mr. Michaud requested and obtained a six week extension from the City when Sperry had only placed an order for the hardware only two working days earlier.) 74- • E Mr. David C. Turcotte Page Two March 1, 1984 I would appreciate knowing how the $30,000 expenditure alluded to in your letter breaks down. We have it from a reliable source that the purchase price of the one attenuator being procured from the Joy Fan Company is $1600 and that the six diverters is a routine sheet metal job and should go for about $500 each. This would total $4600. if the balance of $25,400 represents internal costs to plan, design and contract for the $4600 hardware, something must be very wrong within your Plant Engineering and Procurement Operations or, with the accounting system. Also, if by your representation that the project costed $30,000, you are trying to impress the Timberline residents or the Eagan City officials with the size of the commitment, i would suggest that the amount pales in comparison to the cumulative damages which Sperry has subjected the residents to in terms of decreased property values, the time which has been spent and costs incurred in trying to get Sperry to do what is right in this matter and the emotional strain and irritation on the residents caused by Sperry's continued and protracted violations of the applicable R & D zoning which is supposed to be. controlling. The $30,000 is also small in comparison to Sperry's lost "good will" in the neighborhood. A great mistrust has been generated by the game -playing that has been going on since last summer and this will surely adversely impact the relationship between your company and the neighborhood over the years to come.

THE SYMBOL OF STRENGTH AND GROWTH IN OUR COMMUNITY MEMO TO: THOMAS L HEDGES, CITY ADMINISTRATOR • FROM: THOMAS A COLBERT, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS DATE: MARCH 1, 1984 SUBJECT: PUBLIC WORKS MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT POLICY - DAMAGED BOULEVARD RESTORATION As you may be aware, during the first initial snowplowing opera- tions performed by the Public Works Maintenance Division, there are several locations where boulevard sod was damaged due to the fact that the ground had not yet frozen and the snowplow blade damaged a portion of frontyard areas due to the fact that it is very difficult to define the curb alignment for heavy accumulation first snow falls without previous snow banks to guide the way. Subsequently, the Public Works Maintenance Division receives a considerable number of phone calls notifying us of the damage situation as it occurs. Once the Maintenance Division receives this information, we make a list for repair the following spring. The Public Works Department has the following policy as it pertains to the restoration of these damaged areas: SOD REPLACEMENT: Those areas of lawns/boulevards that were • amaged y t e snowplow that can readily be repaired/restored through new sod installation will be performed by the Public Works crews as soon as sod becomes available from suppliers. Past experience indicates that, dependent upon wet/dry spring conditions, the average date that sod becomes available is approxi- mately May 15. SEEDING: Those areas that are too small to be effectively repaired/ restored with standard -width strips of sod are performed by placing high-quality topsoil and seed. This seed restoration can occur as soon as the last freeze has occurred which his- torically has been approximately May 1. Subsequently, we anticipate beginning this boulevard/lawn restora- tion approximately May 1 and anticipate that it will take approxi- mately one month to restore and repair all damaged areas within the City that occurred from the previous snow removal season. In the past, we have had good success and acceptance with this policy and procedure. If you receive any questions, comments, or complaints pertaining to boulevard damage and required restora- tion, I would appreciate it if you would forward it directly to Public Works Maintenance Division so that it can be incorporated in their list of repairs. Please feel free to share this with other individuals that you • feel may benefit by this information.

He read a statement into the record and indicated that a cassette recording would be made of the hearing, and it was noted that no one appeared on behalf of the owners of the property. The statement covered the procedure, including the right to request additional evidence and testimony to be submitted, the right to file Briefs on behalf of interested property owners or the City, and the opportunity within 30 days of the closing of the hearing, to submit proposed findings of fact, conclusions and order regarding the assessments. Tom Colbert, Public Works Director, reviewed the feasibility report covering Project 0305, started in 1980 and ordered in in 1980, and the water trunk improvements that were installed as a part of the Wescott Road improvements, including storm sewer, some sanitary sewer crossings and trunk water main. He noted that the assess- ments were proposed to cover the 80 acres north of Wescott Road owned by the McCarthy family, approximately 40 acres south of McCarthy Road and owned by McCarthy, and 40 acres south of Wescott Road in the proposed Westbury Addi- tion, which had been assessesd at an earlier time. The assessment hearing was first held in July of 1983 at which time objections were filed. A subsequent hearing was held in December 1983 and the City Council then rescheduled the hearing to March 6, 1984 in order to employ an appraiser to recommend to the City Council what benefit would accrue from the installation of water main to the McCarthy property. The assessment roll was introduced noting that 1980 assessment rates, including both area assessments for water purposes and lateral benefits from trunk water main, were used covering the three parcels involved with total assessments of approximately $90,000.00. Notice of the hearing was published in the legal newspaper and notices were sent to the affected property owners.

Mark Parranto, appraiser hired by the City, presented a detailed written appraisal report and orally reviewed the appraisal at length with the City Council. It was his opinion that the benefit to the property exceeded the amount of the assessment and at 7:50, noting there were no objections nor appearances on behalf of the property owners, Smith moved, Thomas seconded the motion to close the hearing but to leave the assessments open for 30 days in • order to allow interested parties to submit proposed findings, conclusions and order to the Council and further, to submit any other information that was deemed appropriate regarding the assessments. All voted in favor. K Council Minutes March 6, 1984 • CEDARVALE 2RD ADDITION - PROJECT #373 -ALT. Mayor Bea Blomquist then convened the public hearing regarding storm sewer and driveway improvements in Cedarvale 2nd Addition, along Cedarvale Blvd. for Project 0373 -Alternate. Mr. Colbert stated that on January 17, 1984 a public hearing was held on Project 0373 discussing various alternates for the elimination of the service drive to Old Trunk Highway 013 adjacent to Rax, Perkins, Country Club Market and Minnesota Federal Savings & Loan. There was no clear consensus at that meeting by the affected owners and staff was directed to review other potential alternates and meet with the affected property owners, which he stated has now been done. Bob Rosene, the Consulting Engineer detailed the new proposal, including driveway improvements and storm sewer installation. Four properties are involved and proposed to be assessed. Roger Youngquist, Assistant V.P. of Minnesota Federal had questions about the storm sewer installation. Represen- tatives from Rax Restaurant had numerous questions and were told that both left turn in and out from the Rax Restaurant onto Cedarvale would be per- mitted; that Outlots A through'D which consist of the service road, now owned by DCR, will be sold to the adjacent property owners for a nominal price; and, • that the assessments are proposed to cover a ten year period. The Rax repre- sentative indicated that a request will be submitted to the Council to relo- cate its pylon sign. Sheldon Kranz of Country Club Markets had phoned Mr. Colbert and indicated he was unable to be present, but Country Club supported the proposal. The Mayor had concerns that all owners would maintain the green area adjacent to Cedarvale Blvd. and it was suggested that screening be included in the project near the Country Club Market, or that Country Club would do its own installation of screening and landscaping with City approval. Mark Parranto appeared on behalf of the owners of Mister Donut shop and stated that the owners now support the project but would recommend that blacktop overlay on the Home Juice private drive be installed. There were no objections to the project but there were questions about the private service drive and it was suggested that the remaining private drive between the bowling alley and Country Club be improved under a separate project. After considerable discussion, Wachter moved, Thomas seconded the motion to close the hearing, to approve the report and to authorize the preparation of plans and specifications which would include landscaping and screening to be approved by the City staff. All voted in favor. Smith then moved, Egan seconded the motion to direct the City to acquire an option for the service drive adjacent to Cedarvale Blvd. from the Donut shop to the Country Club Market; further, that a feasibility report be prepared covering the improve- ment of that service drive with the intention of assessing the property owners and potentially vacating the service drive at a later time. All voted in • favor. 4 Council Minutes • March 6, 1984 The application of Perry Kieffer for conditional use permit for commer- cial storage in an Agriculturally zoned district on Dodd Road was next con- sidered.

All voted yes. SUNSET STN ADDITION - PREUXINARY PLAT The application of Joseph Hoffman for preliminary plat approval of Sunset 5th Addition containing one acre and located on Dodd Road was next presented to the Council. The applicant called and indicated he would not be able to be present. Councilmembers had concerns about access to the property to the west and it was noted that the parcel on the north has been purchased by a Church denomination and it was further understood that access through that parcel may • be possible. Mr. Hoffman objected to road access through his one acre parcel proposed to be platted under the application. After discussion, Wachter moved, Egan seconded the motion to forward the application to the Advisory Planning Commission for further review regarding road access to Dodd Road. All voted yea. • EU -1 CREST ADDITION - LOT 12, BLOCK 1 - VARIANCE An application from Mark Parranto for front setback variance for Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition was submitted to the Council. Mr. Parranto was present and explained that the reason for the requested variance was because of the steep terrain and because of the attempt to avoid taking additional unnecessary trees. Notices were not mailed to the surrounding property owners but the only property owner within 200 feet was Jerry Thomas. Mr. Thomas indicated he had no objection and waived the right to object and further stated he would abstain from voting. After discussion, Smith moved, Egan seconded the motion to authorize the front. setback variance for Lot 12, Block 1, and to grant a blanket variance for Lots 12 through 20 for terrain and vegetation purposes and if a request is made for Lots 21 through 25, that a special publichearingbe scheduled before the Planning Commission; further, the building inspector and public works departments approve the minimum set- back for Lot 12 through 20.

Egan moved, Blomquist seconded the motion to adopt the policies and priorities without amendments. All voted in favor. SUNSET 4TH ADDITION - PRELILKERARY PLAT The City Council again discussed the application of Tri -Land Company for preliminary plat approval of Sunset 4th Addition, particularly relating to the southerly tier of lots along Hackmore Drive. It was noted that -the Council's Resolution of February 21, 1984 required both an escrowing of funds and that Outlots be provided on the southerly tier of lots. Mr. Colbert recommended that the Council require only one of the two conditions and recommended that a prepayment be required from the applicants. Smith moved, Thomas seconded the motion to amend the conditions provided in the February 21, 1984 motion approving the application, to provide for a prepayment by the applicants for the projected costs for the improvements to be assessed against the north side • of Hackmore Drive, including street and utility improvements. All voted in favor. There was some reluctance on behalf of the Councilmembers, however, to authorize the spread of the cost over all of the lots in the subdivision, and noted it appeared to be more appropriate to spread the costs only over the southerly tier of lots. Mr. Colbert reviewed with the City Council both in written form in the packet, and verbally at the Council meeting, a proposal to revise the schedule of administrative fees in the case of private utility and street improvements within new subdivisions. He indicated that the work load of the staff was in excess of the amount of reimbursement received from the developers in case of installation of private improvements, and noted that during 1984, it appeared that the percentage will increase from about 50% of the subdivision improve- ments to 60% - 65% for privately installed. Several alternates were sug- gested, including a minimum fee of $1,000.00 with a sliding reduced scale or a fixed percentage of the projected costs. Blomquist moved, Thomas seconded the motion to direct the staff to propose a schedule of fees for installation of improvements by developers under private contractors, including review of plans and specs, construction review and management, financial bond calcula- tion review, final inspections, etc. All voted yea. • E Council Minutes • March 6, 1984 SIGNS THROUGHOUT THE CITY Objection had been received by residents of the City to staff and Councilmembers regarding the proliferation of signs throughout the City.

The Advisory Commission reviewed each of the subject park parcels and after a thorough discussion, has recommended to the City Council that grants be submitted in the following priority: 1. Coachman Park 2. Schwanz Lake Park 3. Capricorn Park In addition, the Advisory Commission has recommended to the City Council that the City staff and City Attorney be authorized to begin negotiations for acquisition of approximately 1.4 acres from three private property owners whose property touch upon the south shore of Schwanz Lake. It was noted that acquisition costs could come from part of a combined development/acquisition proposal or from the park site fund as may be necessary. Members also noted an express concern for the requirement of providing matching funds for each grant application. They requested staff to review and restructure said grant applications to reduce the amount of the City's match to a level acceptable to the Council and sustainable within the park site fund. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve modify or reject the Advisory Commission's recommendation for the submission of thl three priorty parks grant applications for Fiscal Year 19851 Attachment KV/kf / MEMO TO: ADVISORY PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION FROM: KEN VRAA, DIRECTOR OF PARKS & RECREATION DATE: FEBRUARY 23, 1984 SUBJECT: FISCAL YEAR 1985 LAWCON/LCMR PARK GRANTS At the February meeting of the Advisory Parks & Recreation Commis- sion, staff made a brief presentation on possible changes for the fiscal year 1985 LAWCON/LCMR Grants program. Although the Metropolitan Council has not adopted its final review criteria, it would be appropriate for the Advisory Parks and Recreation Commission to determine its priorities for grant applications to insure that these applications can be submitted on a timely basis. Therefore, staff has prepared the following information relative to potential park sites for your consideration. 1. Coachman Park - In 1979 the City received an acquisition grant to acquire a .portion of now Coachman Park. This grant was awarded to the City under the entitlement of a community athletic complex for Section 9. The amount of the grant award to the City was for $99,000. Of this amount approximately $33,000 was of state LCMR funds. Because there is a $200,000 maximum award for C LCMR funds to any single project, there remains at least $170,000 of funding which can still be sought for development of the this park area. The working proposal currently being reviewed for a possible park bond referendum, indicates that Coachman Park's development would cost approximately $220,000, thus making it eligible for the funding under the LCMR/LAWCON cost -haring formula. 2. Schwanz Lake Park - The designation of Schwanz Lake Park as a community park may give this park area some priority for grant funding. However, there are three identifiable problems at this time which may affect the awarding of funds to the City for this park. These three problems are as follows: 1) the City does not currently own the property although it has been designated for acquisition under the Lexington South PUD. Assuming that Mr. Curry follows. through with his intentions of deeding this property to the City by October of 1984, this concern will be eliminated; 2) there remains approximately 1.4 acres of additional shoreline aquisition from three private property owners whose lot lines touch upon the south shore of Schwanz Lake. This aquisi- tion was noted in the systems plan study. Should the determination be made that a grant should be submitted for Schwanz Lake Park for development, direction should be given to the City Attorney's office to proceed with negotiations for purchase of this land. Acquisition costs could become a part. of the grant application under a combined development/acquisition proposal; DIRECTOR OF PARKS & RECREATION/ADVISORY COMMISSION r February 23, 1984 \ Page 2 3) Access to Schwanz Lake Park is to be from the proposed future South Wescott Hills Drive. Because the timing of this road construction is uncertain, it may affect the ranking of the grant. This can be somewhat mitigated by the inclusion of a temporary access road on the alignment of the future road bed. Including the optional shelter building for Schwanz Lake, development costs are estimated at $390,000. Under current formulas and at this grant maximum, the City could receive a total of $150,000 assuming sufficiently high rankings. 3. Capricorn Park - Capricorn Park has been designated as a quasi -community park facility under the park system plan. Estimated cost for the development of this facility is $460,000. Like Schwanz Lake, assuming high enough grant ranking, the City could expect to receive as much as $150,000 toward these development costs. Capricorn Park, because of its size, service area, accessibility by major roadways, as well as site suitability, lends itself toward being ranked as a significant project. 4. Rahn Park - Staff has considered the Phase 2 approach Cto the development of the athletic fields at Rahn Park. However, the City has already received, under the previous acquisition and Phase 1 development grant, $170,000. Current guidelines prohibit more than $200,000 maximum for any single project and, therefore, would limit the City to receiving only an additional $30,000 toward the Phase 2 development. 5. Thomas Lake Park/Blackhawk Park - The Director of Parks and Recreation has been approached by Mr. Ed Dunn to determine the interest of the City in acquiring, through purchase, the parkland designated under the existing PUD's for dedication, and in the case of Blackhawk Park, the offer to sell additional land to the south of Black - hawk Lake. Under the proposal to acquire through purchase parkland shown to be dedicated under the PUD agreement, the City would acquire the land with a grant application allowing the City to have earlier control of the property and then reinstating a cash dedication requirement on the adjacent land parcel which would generate future cash dedication fees exceeding the City's share in the cost acquisition procedure. This would be similar to acquisition of designated park property along Blackhawk Lake. Staff has a concern for the rankings of acquisition applications at this time as the ranking criteria is now heavily weighted toward development type projects. Staff has been considering C I DIRECTOR OF PARKS & RECREATION%ADVISORY COMMISSION February 23, 1984 Page 3 a possible development project for Thomas Lake Park but without acquisition of the property or acquisition pending, it is very unlikely the City would receive approval of a grant application. The Advisory Commission should make a determination of which grant applications it would like to have submitted for the fiscal year 185 grant cycle. Members should keep in mind that it may now submit more than one grant application. Members must also keep in mind that matching funds will be required by the City should the grants be awarded to any one or all of the projects submitted. There is insufficient funding within the park site fund to cover these matching costs and could only be made available through a successful parks bond referendum or special assessment levy.

Agenda Information Packet March 6, 1984 City Council Meeting • Page Two PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT D. Public Works Department --Item $1: Private Development Adminis- trative Fee Schedule -- On January 1, 1983, the City Council ap- proved a revision to the bonding requirements associated with de- velopment within the City. The present bonding requirements stipu- late that a financial guarantee must be placed with the City guaranteeing at least 608 of the cost of public improvements (streets & facilities necessary to service the proposed subdivision. This financial guarantee requirement is the same whether these pub- lic improvements are installed under City contract (guarantee for payment of assessments) or installed privately by the developer (guarantee for completion of installation). Prior to this revision, public improvements installed privately be developers were required to place a financial guarantee in the amount of 1258 of the estima- ted cost of improvements while those that were constructed under a public contract did not require any financial guarantee to insure the collection of assessments. As can be seen, this new revision has made installation of public improvements more equitable and at the developer's discretion as to whether it is performed privately or through a City contract. Subsequently, during 1983, the City noticed that approximately 45-558 of the subdivision improvements were performed privately by the developers. During 1984, it appears that this percentage will increase to approximately 60-658 for private installation. The Public Works Director is concerned about the negative impact that private development has on the City's budget situation. Those improvements performed under public contract generate 4.08 in revenue for administrative services rendered by the Engineering, Maintenance and Special Assessment Divisions for plan review/con- tract management, assessment searches/spreads and construction/final inspection, respectively. With the increasing number of develop- ments installing improvements, this additional revenue is no longer available to supplement the general fund budget to finance the per- sonnel within the various divisions of the Public Works Department which is necessary to insure compliance with City standards. How- ever, those subdivisions which improvements installed privately require varying levels of staff review and assistance by the three divisions. However, there is no revenue generated to offset these increasing costs as there are with public contracts installed im- provements. • Therefore, the Public Works Director would like to discuss with the City Council a new policy whereby those subdivisions that have • public improvements installed privately would be charged an adminis- trative fee to cover the costs of plans/spec review, construction /AR • Agenda Information Packet March 6, 1984 City Council Meeting Page Three -R review/management, financial bond calculations/review/reductions, construction/final inspections, etc. Due to the fact that there are no special assessments associated with private development of public improvements, the full 4.08 administrative fee would not be necessary. Therefore, the Public Works Director would like to suggest that a minimum fee of $1,000 be established to be paid as a condition of final plat approval and that a sliding scale starting at 1.58 for the first $100,000 and decreasing by 0.18/$100,000 to $1,000,000. All costs incurred by outside consultants, inspection services, etc., are billed directly to the City and forwarded to the developer for reimbursement. However, we presently have no means of passing on similar costs for the increasing time spent by staff personnel. The Public Works Director would like to discuss this policy in further detail with the Council so that a formal policy and fee schedule can be prepared for adoption at the next meeting. • ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve or deny the con- cept of administrative fee schedule for public improvements instal- led privately, and, if approved, direct the Public Works Department to prepare a formal schedule for review by the Council at a later date. • 3 Agenda Information Packet March 6, 1984 City Council Meeting Page Three -90 There are six (6) items on the agenda referred to as the Consent Agenda requiring one (1) motion by the City Council. If the City Council desires to discuss any of the items in further detail, those items should be removed from the Consent Agenda and place under Additional Items unless the discussion required is brief. PROJECT 396, FEASIBILITY REPORT A. Project 396, Receive Feasibility Report/Order Public Hearing (Westbury Addition - Streets and Utilities) -- On February 7, 1984, the City Council received a petition and subsequently ordered the preparation of the feasibility report for the installa- tion of streets and utilities to service the first phase of the Westbury Addition in the southwest corner of Wescott and Lexington Avenue. Concurrently, the Council also ordered the preparation of detailed plans and specifications due to the waiver and guarantee of costs by the applicant.

They routinely request the City of Eagan to similarly review these properties to determine if there is any public need or benefit associated with this property prior to its placement on the open market for resale. These properties are described as follows: 1. Parcel #10-02700-012-25, Wilderness Run Fifth Addition (Page 2. Parcel #10-02700-012-51, Ches Mar Second Addition (Page 9 ) 3. Parcel #10-88800-106-00, Zehnder Acres (Page /Q ) City staff has reviewed the above three parcels and found that the City would have no interest in any of these parcels with the exception of Parcel #10-02700-012-51. It would be in the • City's best interest to request that this property be classified as public conservation land and transferred over to the City of Eagan as a part of our future well site/Ravine Park development. As can be seen, this tax forfeited property is a five-foot sliver of land located between the well site and the west right-of- way of Ches Mar Drive. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve the classifica- tion of the tax forfeited parcels as follows: Parcel #10-02700-012-25 (Non -Conservation) Parcel #10-02700-012-51 (Conservation/Public Interest) Parcel #10-88800-106-00 (Non -Conservation) C, J and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute all related documents as may be required.

The resignation becomes effective on the last day of work, March 9, 1984. Due to the fact that this position is critical to the functions of the two departments, the Public Works Director is re- questing that the resignation be accepted and authorization be given for an immediate replacement in accordance with standard City policies and procedures. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To accept the resig- natin of Judy Chaffee -Heald as Public Works/Planning de- partmental secretary and authorize advertisement for the replacement of this position. • 2. Authorization to Fill Vacancy of Special Assessment Aide Presently, the Public Works Department shares a clerk/ typist position as a special assessment aide with the Finance Department as a utility billing clerk aide. This position is presently filled by Nancy Ohm. The approved 1984 budget increased the 0.5 allocation of this position to a full time clerk/typist position to continue the as- sistance for utility billing while adding clerk/typist assistance to payroll, purchasing and general accounting functions. The Public Works Director, City Administrator and Finance Director have reviewed the situation and deter- mined that this 1984 full time position could best be ful- filled by the transferring of Nancy Ohm. Subsequently, this leaves a 0.5 position vacant for a special assessment aide to the special assessment division of the Public Works Department. Therefore, the Public Works Director is requesting authorization from the City Council to advertise for a permanent part-time (20-30) hours/week to fulfill this special assessment aide posi- tion. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To authorize the advertisement for a permanent part-time special assessment aide in accordance with present City policies and proce- dures.

COLBERT,,DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS v DATE: FEBRUARY 24, 1984 SUBJECT: PROJECT 305, WESCOTT ROAD ASSESSMENTS (TRUNK WATER MAIN) In July of 1983, the original final assessment hearing was held for this project. Due to objections that were received at that time, I he public hearing was continued until December 20, 1983. At that time, the City Council formally approved the final assessment roll as was originally prepared. However, within the required 30 days of that final assessment hearing, the City received a notice of ap- peal pertaining to the amount of the assessments. i Subsequently, on February 7, 1984, the City Council cancelled the final assessments as levied on December 20, 1983 for Project 305 and ordered a new final assessment hearing to be held on March 6, 1984. In reviewing the original final assessment roll that was prepared in comparison to the benefits received from the adjacent properties, it was discovered that the assessments associated with lateral bene- fit from trunk water main were not properly allocated to the abut- ting property. Therefore, the following is a new cost allocation which should be used in preparing a new final assessment roll to be Presented at the final assessment hearing scheduled for March 6, 1984: PROJECT 305R WESCOTT ROAD TRUNK WATER MAIN /(0 PARCEL NUMBERS ASSESSMENT IMPROVEMENT 10-01500-011-76 10-01500-012-76 }0-02200-01(�- 1 N 10-02200-011-04 Trunk Area Water 1) Total Area 39.3 Ac 38.3 Ac 39.83 Ao 39.92 Ac 2) Less Street R -O -W -3.0 Ac -3.0 Ac 2.99 Ac NA credit 1.2 Ac 3) Less Ponding Easement -13.2 Ac -1.2 Ac 3.00 Ac Credit 4) Less 201 future R -O -W -4.6 Ac -6.8 Ac 6.77 Ac 7.74 Ac - credit 30.98 Ac 5) Net Assessable Area 18.5 Ac 27.3 Ac 27.07 Ac $700 6) Rate/Acre $700 $700 $700 $21,686.00 7) Area Assessment Amount $12,950 $19,110 :18,949.00 Lateral Benefit From Trunk Water Main 1) Assessable Footage 2,175' 1,290' 85n' NA 2) Rate/L.F. $10.90 $10.90 $13.05 NA 3) Lateral Assessment Amt_§23,707.50 $14,061.00 $11,092.50 NA $33,171 $30,041.50 (TOTAL ASSESSMENT $36,657.50 $21,686.00 /(0 0 • ReL-e%,IL I )-gi- ?` February 22, 1984 E.

Director of Public Works 9402b Date: .2 - '� 3 J a4 SCOPE: This project provides for the construction of storm sewer with related • driveway and boulevard improvements within and adjacent to Cedarvale 2nd Addi- tion. This report is the result of various meetings with the affected proper- ty owners to review the proposed improvement project presented at the public hearing on January 17, 1984 and to determine the extent of improvements neces- sary to meet the needs of each business and the City of Eagan. Therefore, this report, Project No. 373 -Alternate, presents an improvement project which best addresses the needs of each business and the City. Estimated costs and a preliminary assessment roll are included at the back of this report. CHANGES TO ORIGINAL FEASIBILITY REPORT: It is proposed as part of this alternate report that the private service drive located westerly of Country Club Market remain as a private service drive and be maintained by the adjacent property owners. It is also proposed to maintain the private service drive between Mister Donut and Home Juice Co. • No storm sewer laterals will be constructed under this report to service the parking lots of Country Club Market (Parcel #050-04) or Cedarvale Lanes (Lot 1, Block 1 Cedarvale 2nd Addition). FEASIBILITY AND RECOMMENDATIONS: The project is feasible from an engineering standpoint and is in accordance with the Master Utility and Street Plan for the City of Eagan. The project as outlined herein can best be carried out as one contract. DISCUSSION: A. Storm Sewer - Storm sewer proposed herein includes storm sewer within the existing drainage ditch along the south side of Cedarvale Boulevard as previ- ously recommended. However, it is proposed at this time to extend the storm sewer westerly to the existing culverts at Rahn Road and easterly to the ex- isting culvert beneath the driveway entrance to Home Juice Co. • Page 1. 9402b A5' • Catch basin inlet structures are required for each of the private drives onto Cedarvale Boulevard. Also included is a short extension of storm sewer to the private drive located between Rax Restaurant and Country Club Market. B. Driveway and Boulevard - Driveway and boulevard improvements are separated into two parts. Part I provides for improvements to Rax and Perkins Restau- rant, and Minnesota Federal. These. improvements include removal of the pri- vate service drive and extending each drive to Cedarvale Boulevard as shown on the attached drawing. Grading of the boulevard area and sodding is required due to removal of the existing service drive and construction of storm sewer. It is also proposed to construct an 1-1/2" thick bituminous overlay on the ex- isting service drive located southerly of Minnesota Federal which will remain in service and become their main entrance. • Part II provides for boulevard improvements for Country Club due to storm sewer construction. Also included is construction of concrete curb and gutter and bituminous mixture for patching adjacent to the new catch basin inlet structure located at the northerly end of the private service drive between Rax Restaurant and Country Club Market.

Mr. Kieffer has a responsible position with the local Shriners and due to their activities with the circus and other related functions, it will not be possible for him to be in attendance at a City Council meeting until April 3, 1984.

Joseph Hoffman for a Preliminary Plat, Sunset 5th Addition, Containing 1 Acre and Platted into Two Single -Family Lots -- A public hearing was held at the January 24 Advisory Planning Commission meeting to consider an application for a preliminary plat submitted by Joseph Hoffman to plat the Sunset 5th Addition containing 1 acre into two single-family lots. The item was continued from the January meeting to the February 28 APC meeting for the purpose of requiring additional information regarding access to the property from the west. The City staff did contact the applicant and work with Mr. Jim Curry who has sold the property immediately north of Sunset 5th Addition for a future church site. It was the staff's understanding that there is a 60 -foot road easement on this particular property and that once the area develops, the road easement will be platted for public access. The Advisory Planning Commission is recommending approval of the preliminary plat to the City Council. For additional information on this item, refer to the City Planner's report; a copy is enclosed on pages 'Sq through 4S- For a copy of the minutes of the Advisory Planning Commission meeting; refer to the Administrative Agenda on Monday.

RUNKLE, CITY PLANNER APPLICATION SUBMITTED: An application has been submitted requesting preliminary plat approval, Sunset 5th Addition, consisting of approx- imately 1 acre and containing two single family lots located in part of the NE; of the NWk of Section 25 lying south of County Road (Diff - ley Road) north of Saddlehorn Addition and directly west of Dodd Road. ZONING AND LAND USE • Presently, the parcel is within the Lexington South Planned Develop- ment and is zoned in accordance with the planned development and is designated R -II (Mixed Residential) with a density of 3-6 dwelling units per acre. The Comprehensive Guide Plan designates this parcel as R -I (Residen- tial Single District) with a density of 0-3 dwelling units per acre. The applicant is fulfilling this requirement by subdividing a one acre lot into two lots where the square footage would exceed the R-1 zon- ing criteria and the density would be within the 0-3 dwelling units per acre. COMMENTS The preliminary plat meets all of the criteria set forth in Section 11 and 13 of the State Code for lot size requirements in an R-1 Dis- trict. The proposed plat is small and each of the lots within the plat would contain 21,840 square feet. The applicant was not aware of what the exact right-of-way dedication should be for Dodd Road, and even including the dedication, the two lots proposed would far exceed the R-1 zoning standards. In review of this plat, normally there should be a concern in regard to direct access on a proposed collector road. However, in review of this particular plat, the lots directly south in Saddlehorn Addi- tion all take direct access onto Dodd Road. Therefore, restricting this particular plat from taking direct access wouldn't be consistent with what has happened in the past along Dodd Road. CITY OF EAGAN PRELIMINARY PLAT - SUNSET 5TH ADDITION JANUARY 24, 1984 PAGE TWO If the plat is approved, it should be subject to the following condi- tions: 1) The preliminary plat shall meet all of the R-1 criteria for lot size and width. 2) Adequate rights-of-way shall be dedicated for Dodd Road as requested by City staff. 3) All other City ordinances shall be adhered to. DCR/jach ENGINEERING RECOMMENDATIONS - SUNSET 5TH ADDITION 4) Water/Sewer connection permits and roadway excavation permits must be acquired. 5) One access, centered over this parcel, shall be granted on Dodd Road and turnarounds shall be provided for each lot. • 6) A minimum 40' half right-of-way shall be dedicated for Dodd • Road. 7) Utility and drainage easements shall be dedicated in accor- dance with recommendations of this report. 8) This development shall be responsible for trunk area storm sewer assessments at the rate in effect at the time of final plat approval. 9)• All costs for servicing each lot with sewer and water and driveway construction shall be the sole responsibility of this development. RMH/jach E 3c- • MEMO TO: THE ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION, C/O DALE C. RUNKLE, CITY PLANNER°,•,:.....• FROM: RICHARD M. HEFTI, ASSISTANT CITY ENGINEER DATE: JANUARY 16, 1984 SUBJECT: SUNSET 5TH ADDITION PRELIMINARY PLAT The Engineering Division of the Department of Public Works has the following comments regarding this proposed development to be con- sidered by the Advisory Planning Commission and City Council. DRAINAGE/TOPOGRAPHY This proposed development poses no problems with future drainage or grading due to its location and size. UTILITIES Utilities of sufficient depth, capacity and size exist within Dodd Road to provide individual services to each lot. However, the neces- sary permits for connection and roadway excavation must be•acquired. STREETS ® Existing streets providing potential access to this proposed develop- ment consist of Dodd Road which borders this proposed development along the east side. Dodd Road is a planned City collector street but exists as a residential street in width in the interim. Subse- quently, it is City policy that access to City collector streets be limited to provide traffic capacity and safety required for the col- lector street designation. Subsequently, staff would recommend again- st allowing access along Dodd Road as proposed. Access could better be suited off of an internal east -west street which could border the north boundary of this proposed development. Not only would this be more desirable for this proposed development but would also open up better access to Parcels 021-26 and 022-26. As it stands now, Parcel 021-26 would be extremely difficult to develop and provide access to the easterly portion of it. Therefore, staff would.recommend•the ow- ner of this property to submit a sketch of proposed uses for this de- yelopment so that a logical plan could be followed in developing this corner, southwest of County Road 30 and Dodd Road. However, if this preliminary plat is approved, staff would recommend that only one access be allowed on Dodd Road and be centered over this parcel. Also, it should be a requirement that turnarounds be provid- ed for each lot so that the vehicles do not have to back out to gain access to Dodd Road. • RIGHT-OF-WAY/EASEMENTS If this preliminary plat is approved, then a 40' half right-of-way shall be dedicated for Dodd Road. This is the minimum half 29 ENGINEERING REPORT SUNSET 5TH ADDITION PRELIMINARY PLAT JANUARY 16, 1984 • PAGE TWO right-of-way required for City collector streets. In addition, a 10' utility easement shall be dedicated adjacent to all publicly dedicated right-of-way along with a 5' drainage and util- ity easement being dedicated along all lot lines. ASSESSMENTS All trunk related assessments have been levied over this parcel (012- 26) with the exception of trunk area storm sewer. Subsequently, this area shall -be -responsible for its trunk area storm sewer assessment at the rate in effect at the time of final plat approval. At this time, it would amount to $2,276.00 (42,218 square feet X $0.0539 per square foot). All costs for servicing each lot with sewer and water and driveway construction shall be the sole responsibility of this development. I will be available to discuss any aspect of this report with the Ad- visory -Planning Commission at their meeting on January 24, 1984. Respectfully submitted, Richard M. Hefti, P.E.

Mark Parranto for a Front Setback Variance for Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition -- The City Planner received an application from Mr. Mark Parranto requesting a front setback variance for Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition. For additional information on this item, refer to the City Planner's report; a copy is enclosed on pages through ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON, THIS ITEM: To approve or deny the variance request as submitted for a front setback on Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition. SPECIAL NOTE: The City Planner's report will be enclosed with the Administrative Packet on Monday. Do- • CITY OF EAGAN SUBJECT: VARIANCE APPLICANT: J.E.PARRANTO, MARK PARRANTO LOCATION: LOT 12, BLOCK 1, HILLCREST ADDITION EXISTING ZONING: R-1 (RESIDENTIAL - SINGLE DISTRICT) DATE OF PUBLIC HEARING: MARCH 6, 1984 DATE OF REPORT: MARCH 5, 1984 REPORTED BY: DALE C. RUNKLE, CITY PLANNER APPLICATION SUBMITTED: An application has been submitted requesting a 10 -foot root set ack variance for Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition, Section 33. COMMENTS Lot 12, Block 1, Hillcrest Addition is one of the two most southerly lots platted in this addition. Originally the street plan pro- posed for this plat was a through street providing access to the property to the south. However, in the planning process it was determined that this through street was not needed and the City directed the applicant to provide a cul de sac for this street on the southerly end of Richard Lane. With the cul de sac now being constructed, Lots 11 and 12 have somewhat different lot configurations than what would have been approved A with a through street. As you can see, Lot 12 has a depth going east -west of approximately 300 feet and should have adequate room to put a home on this particular lot. Access is now obtained through the cul de sac. The front to back depth of the lot is approximately 72 feet and siting the house on this particular lot from this access is difficult in accordance with the setbacks required. Also the topography breaks and drops off on this particular lot also making the home at a lower elevation the further south you would require the house to be p aced. Therefore, the additional 10 feet would make the house not as low from, the street as if it would be required to be put at the regular 30 -foot setback distance. Therefore, with.the irregular configura- tion and access of this lot, the topography warrants the review of the Council for this 10 -foot front setback variance. The applicant has also indicated to City staff that he would like the Council to review a blanket variance situation on all of the lots in Hillcrest Addition. As you review the lots on • the west side of Richard Lane, the topography drops off substantial- ly from east to west. Therefore, each additional foot the developer • CITY OF EAGAN J.E.PARRANTO, MARK PARRANTO - VARIANCE MARCH 6, 1984 PAGE TWO can save in locating a home to the west, the less fill he will have to provide for that lot. Therefore, would the Council consider a blanket variance on this addition because of the topography or would the Council prefer to consider each individual variance when an application is submitted? This should be discussed by the Council so staff can have direction as to how to proceed with this proposed development. If the variance which has been submitted and placed on the March 6, 1984, City Council agenda is approved, it should be subject to the following conditions: 1) All other setback requirements and City ordinance require- ments shall be adhered to.

Ratification of Local 320 Contract, Public Works Maintenance - The City Administrator has received a letter from Minnesota Teamsters Public and Law Enforcement Employees Union Local #320 regarding Public Works Maintenance employees affirming a settlement based on a 4�% increase for 1984 and 5% for 1985. An offer had been made by the City for 4�% in 1984 and 4�% in 1985 with the maximum guideline that the City would increase the offer to 5% for 1985 if the Public Works Maintenance group agreed on a two-year contract. The union has accepted the counter offer regarding all 22 items as presented by the City Administrator in a letter dated January 30, 1984. The only exception being Item 17 where the salary was increased for 1985 consistent with guidelines set forth by the City Council. Therefore, action is in order to ratify a two-year contract with the Public Works Maintenance group under the conditions specified in the attached correspondence found on pages +4q _51 ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To approve or deny final ratification of the Public Works and Park Maintenance Division contract. 47 rMs 3795 PILOT KNOB ROAD.

We have met on several occasions and hopefully this proposal will represent a settlement that both your collective bargaining unit and the City Council can approve for 1984/1985 contract duration. The following discussion represents the City's offer to each of the 21 demands that were presented in a letter dated November 10,1983, from your office: 1) The City is recommending a two (2) year contract that would be retroactive to January 1, 1984, and continued through December 31, 1985. 2) The changes you have recommended under Article 3.5, "it will be the duty of .the supervisor in each department to establish safety regulations, instruct workers in accident prevention, and provide safety meetings for employees on a regular basis" is acceptable to the City. 3) The changes recommended in Article 12.1 are not. acceptable as new contract language. However, the City has maintained a policy that if maintenance workers are called out prior to 7:00 a.m. on a given workday, they are allowed to work until 3:30 which normally amounts to overtime for the employee. The management wishes to retain flexability regarding this item. 4) The City is not agreeable to the change in Article 12.1 to pay shift differential. Each Public works/Parks Main- tenance employee understood with their acceptance into public employment that night call -outs are required to THE LONE OAK TREE ... THE SYMBOL OF STRENGTH AND GROWTH IN OUR COMMUNITY I CITY OF EAGAN/MR JACK MOGELSON • January 30, 1984 Page 2 maintain a desirable public service. 5) The City is not in agreement with amending Article 12.8. 6) The City does not agree with the change in Article 12.9 adding compensatory time. 7) The City is not in agreement with Article 12.9 regarding the request for double time for weekends and triple time for major holidays when overtime occurs. 8) The City is not agreeable to eliminating "but not necessarily equal" as requested as an amendment for Article 12.10. 9) There is no change desired for Article 13.1 by the City. 10,11 & 12) The City recognizes the need for a policy that allows career movement within the three maintenance divisions, which include Utilities, Streets and Parks and Recreation mainte- nance. It is not in the best interest for the City to allow movement at will within the departments without some type . of employee commitment to train for a different maintenance division. Therefore, the City accepts a policy whereby an employee who can verify that he or she has prepared independently to learn skills of a particular maintenance division, may qualify for a transfer to that division based on 1) meeting all minimum qualifications, 2) obtaining licenses or skills required within a specified time frame, 3) seniority with Public Works/Parks/Maintenance divisions, 4) acceptance of the next lowest pay classification for one (1) year upon transfer to a new division, and 5) a one- year probation will be imposed for any employee who transfers to a new division. It is the City's contention that if an employee wishes to change his or her career ambitions by transferring to a new division, a reduction in pay for one year should not impact their long-term career objectives and at the same time that employee should learn the new maintenance division well enough within the year that they could be considered at the normal rate of pay provided by the City at the end of the one-year probation. 13) The City proposes a change to Article 13.4 to be consistant with the City's personnel policy. (See attached) 14) The City is agreeable to the change recommended in Article 13.5 which deletes "regarding classification". r\ U IE CITY OF EAGAN/MR JACK MOGELSON January 30, 1984 • , Page 3 15) The City is not agreeable to the additional holidays as requested in Article 14.1. 16) The City is not agreeable to the vacation change as outlined in Article 15.2. 17) The City has increased its offer in salaries to a 4.58 increase in 1984 retroactive to January 1 and a 4.58 increase for 1985. 18) The City has recognized a deficiency in the clothing allow- ance and is therefore increasing its clothing allowance from $94.95 to $150.00 per year which would remain in effect during 1984 and 1985. The use of this clothing allowance will be consistent with a compliance policy drafted by management and agreed to by the union steward. 19) The City is not in agreement with the changes in Article 17.3 as recommended. 20) The City is not in agreement with an increase in life insur- ance as outlined'in 17.3. • 21) The City is- not in agreement with the changes recommended in Article 17.4. 22) The City would agree to a written addendum to the contract that allows City employees who also are volunteer firemen in the City of Eagan to respond to fire calls during working hours without loss of pay. I would be happy to discuss any of these points in further detail with you at any time. I will be looking forward to a response from you at your earliest convenient date. Sincerely, Thomas L.

Contract 84-2, Receive Bids/Award Contract (Wescott Trunk Sanitary Sewer) -- At 9:30 a.m. on Friday, March 2, formal bids were received for the above -referenced contract. Enclosed on page 5 3 is a bid tabulation of all bids submitted with a comparison to the feasibility report and engineer's estimate. All easements necessary for the construction of this work have been acquired through a "quick take" condemnation action under the direction of our City Attorney. Therefore, there are no problems associated with awarding the contract at this time. As can be seen, we have requested bids for three alternates associated with this construction as follows: Alternate No. 1: We requested bids for a polyvinyl chloride pipe (PVC) as compared to the standard reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) to determine if any cost savings would be incurred through the use of this special design material for this size of pipe through the anticipated depth zones. Alternate No. 2: Alternate .No. 3: The standard base bid for the contract provides for an aggregate base access road to the lift station from the future Denmark Avenue through City park property. This alternate requests the costs associated with paving this access road with a bituminous surface to provide an all-weather access road with minimal maintenance and erosion. This requests an alternate bid to install the "grass paver" concrete patio block that would allow grass growth but still provide instability for equipment over the access road to the same lift station. This is similar to the material that was installed to the Almquist Lake lift station recently. Public Works Director and Consulting Engineer will be evaluating the bids and any possible alternate equipment bids that were submitted and will be providing a final recommendation to the Council at the meeting on Tuesday, March 6. ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED ON THIS ITEM: To receive the bids for Contract 84-2 (Wescott Trunk Sanitary Sewer) and award the contract to the lowest responsible bidder, and authorize the mayor and • City Clerk to execute all related documents.

These plans have now been completed and are being presented to the Council for their review and subsequent authorization to advertise for bids under Contract 84-4. As was discussed previously, these plans incorporate an alternate bid for the exterior painting of "EAGAN" at three locations on this reservoir so that the Council can consider its inclusion at the time of contract award based on bids received.

Contract 84-5, Receive Bids/Award Contract (Fire Administration Building - Parking Lot) -- At 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, March 1, official bids were received pertaining to the improvement of the parking lot to the new Fire Administration building (old city hall) as a part of the overall Municipal Center Bond Referendum project. Enclosed on page S6 is the bid tabulation showing the results of this bid opening. This project contained two alternates described as follows: Alternate No. 1: Alternate No. 2: Alternate No. 1 requested bids for the installa- tion of a concrete driveway for the first 30 ft. coming out of the new garage addition. Staff wanted to evaluate the cost benefit of this alternative through actual bid prices due to the heavier pieces of the equipment that will be used in this sloped access drive (fire engines, medical emergency vehicles, etc.). Alternate No. 2 requested a deduct bid if City maintenance crews were to install the aggregate base prior to the surface paving. This was done to try and evaluate any potential cost savings to the overall project that could be accomplished through the use of City forces. The Public Works Director will be evaluating the bids for the contract and the various alternates and will be making a final recommendation to the Council at the meeting on Tuesday, March 6.

Hedges City Administrator TLH/hnd E • MEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR & CITY COUNCILMEMBERS FROM: CITY ADMINISTRATOR HEDGES DATE: MARCH 2, 1984 MINNESOTA JOCKEY CLUB APPLICATION As you are all aware, five (5) applications were received by the Minnesota Horse Racing Commission yesterday, of which the Lone Oak application was one of those submitted. The applicant has given the City seven (7) copies of a portfolio that summarizes the Lone Oak site. Included in your packet is your copy of the portfolio. The City Administrator will retain one copy in his office while the other copy will be at the front counter for review by the public. The City Administrator received the City of Eagan's copy of the application for the Lone Oak site from the Minnesota Racing Commission today. The application is similar to the three -volume proposal that was submitted by Group W Cable when they submitted their application to the Joint Commission. Included in the application are two large volumes that include application and exhibits, and then a third and fourth volume that includes all the bond information, and a fifth volume which is a copy of the environmental impact statement. • Also enclosed is a copy of the portfolio that each member of the City Council's received. There is one complete set of the applications which will be kept in the office of the City Adminis- trator and are certainly open for public inspection at any time. Please mark your calendars for Thursday, March 8, when the environ- mental impact public hearing will be held in the Eagan City Council chambers at 7:00 p.m. Mayor Blomquist will open the meeting and act as a facilitator for questions, answers, etc. City staff, in conjunction with consultants for the applicant, will field the questions as they are raised by the public. The other date of significance is Tuesday, March 13, the date the Minnesota Racing Commission has selected to hold the public hearing in the City of Eagan. Unfortunately it does conflict with the evening activities at the legislative session sponsored by the League of Minnesota Cities, however, the date is fixed and cannot be changed by the Minnesota Racing Commission. At that meeting, it is my understanding that the Minnesota Racing Commission will conduct the public hearing and, again, the City Council's participation will be more as observers. Enclosed for your reference is a copy of the letter that the City Administra- tor received from the Minnesota Racing Commission, a letter from Jim Curry Investment Companies to the Racing Commission members, and a resolution that was passed by our neighboring city, Inver Grove Heights, supporting the Eagan horse racing facility. These documents are enclosed on pages A 3 through. • The City Administrator and Steve Pflaum have had a lengthy discus- sion and it is apparent that the development agreement should W INFORMATIVE MEMO • March 2, 1984 Page 2 be completed before the racing commission holds its all -day review of the applications on March 12. Therefore, the City Administrator will have to work next week in meetings with the attorneys, BRW, and applicant to finalize the development agreement for either adoption by the City Council on March 6 or possibly the special City Council meeting prior to the EIS hearing on March 8. The first meeting is set for Monday at BRW's office. It is very important that the development agreement be exercised before the March 12 date. SPERRY NOISE UPDATE Benchmarks for noise monitoring were established at the pump house and Don Giblin's house for the before and after noise monitoring by MPGA. Both noise monitorings before installation of equipment have been completed --the first on February 23 and the last on February 29. According to Sperry, the equipment will be installed within the next two weeks and hopefully noise monitoring can be performed before the April 3 City Council meeting. Since the City Administrator has received copies of correspondence regarding this matter, it seemed appropriate to keep the City Council updated and, therefore, copies of corres- • pondence are enclosed on pages (�j through for your information. NAMING OF PARK LANDS Enclosed on pages %(o through -7-7 is a copy of a letter that was sent to theDirector of Pars and Recreation regarding the naming of park lands as reviewed by the City Council.

Elmer Anderson Ladies and Gentlemen of the Minnesota Racing Commission: I write this letter to recommend that you choose Eagan as the Horse Race Track location. I have owned property and done business in Eagan since 1969. At the peak of my real estate activities in Eagan, I owned 2,000 acres. I developed almost 1,000 lots for housing and today my owned land holdings have been reduced, by sales and development, to a few hundred acres. With this kind of activity, I have worked with the city staff, • elected officials and citizens groups such as the Chamber of Commerce and the Council for Urban Mobility. I must confess I am an absolute admirer of everything that makes up Eagan. I have never seen a better run city. (Note: I have done business in Edina when my partner and I built Pentagon Office Park.) Eagan has an outstanding staff and dedicated, talented people on their City Council, Planning Commission, Park Board etc. EagaL has lots of spirit and enthusiasm for the horse racing facility. Just as important, Eagan has an excellent tax base so they have been able to afford to do things right. The industrial park in north Eagan has made it possible, I believe, for Eagan to have one of the lowest tax rates in the seven county metro area for many years. Service from the city has always been excellent. Today Eagan is booming! It is the fastest growing area in the metro area. The Cedar Avenue and 494 bridges are performing their functions beautifully. Eagan is now home for about 29,000 people, I believe, and some 25,000 work in Eagan!. Long before the year 2000, there will be 500000 people living in Eagan and probably as many working there. • • • • I Why? Because it has THE perfect location. Uniquely, it is near both St. Paul and Minneapolis. If a race track can succeed in Minnesota, Eagan is the place where the chance for success is greatest, I believe. I'also know the people behind the Eagan race track.- They are local. They are highly respected' and highly successful businessmen. I have total trust -in them. 'Frankly, I'm really thrilled that local people are behind the Eagan site. This has been a long letter and I appreciate your reading it.

In this capacity, 1 am requesting yourLjagency's assistance in reviewing the concerns of my neighbors and `k with respect to the potential for ground water and air pollution caused by Sperry's operations. Accordingly, I am • writing this letter to formally request, on behalf of the concerned citizens living near to this plant, that as a part of its review in determining the propriety of issuing an operating permit that Sperry's manufacturing procedures and manufacturing facilities be carefully reviewed and that such an operating permit only be granted upon a clear finding that its factory cannot and will not create a health hazard. 1 am sure you are as aware as we are of the havoc reeked upon the environment in the San Francisco Peninsula area (Silicon Valley) by Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel Corporation and in Pheonix by Motorola. In case you may have missed it, I am enclosing a copy of an article which appeared in the 3uly 25, 1983 issue of Time Magazine. This is the same industry that Sperry has brought to our back doors. The reason why 1 believe it is necessary for the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency to become involved is that: 1. Sperry cannot be trusted to police itself; and 2. The Eagan building inspectors charged with the responsibility at the local level have neither the expertise nor the instrumentation to monitor and evaluate Sperry's manufacturing operations as far as measuring possible harmful chemical emissions in the air, in the ground water or through the sewer systems. 69 • Minnesota Pollution Control Agency February 16, 1984 Page Two Fabrication of semiconductor chips Involves the use of a variety of highly toxic and carcinogenic chemicals. The semiconductor processes used by the manufacturers in Silicon Valley resulted in significant escapes of these chemicals into the environment. Sperry is known to be using manufacturing processes originally developed by Fairchild. We are concerned that any such escapes at the Sperry Plant might go unreported and uncorrected. Mere verbal assurances by a Sperry facilities planner that his company's procedures are safe are not enough. After all, the Titanic was unsinkable. Then too, Sperry's reluctance to address its noise pollution problem when an expenditure of only $5,000 - $6,000 is involved is indicative of a mindset that would place a higher priority on company profits than on environmental concerns. It is also evident to us that the City of Eagan does not have on its staff persons with the knowledge and experience in this high-tech area which are required to detect and appropriately deal with the hazards to the environment occasioned by unintentional spills, leaks or other mishaps or the intentional failure to properly install and maintain the air/water filtering and purifying equipment. • The residents in the Timberline area feel that it was extremely poor planning to locate an industrial plant for the production of integrated circuits on a high volume basis only a few hundred feet from a residential neighborhood and that the City officials were remiss in not following the zoning restrictions which were put in place to protect our neighborhood when it granted its building permits to Sperry. For all of the foregoing reasons, we feel it is essential that the Minnesota Pollution Agency step in and review the overall operations of the Sperry Plant so that the Timberline residents and other citizens of Eagan drawing thew water from the nearby wells can be sure that this area remains a safe place to live and to raise children.

Nikolai 1504 Red Cedar Road Eagan, MN 55121 Dear Mr. Nikolai: r ^ 41aA YEoe_ - La Your recent letter clearly stressed the concern of our Timberline neighbors about Sperry's follow through on its commitment to reduce noise levels emanating from our Semi- conductor Headquarters Building. I can assure you that I have personally reviewed both the complaints and the internal engineering effort. Sperry committed in October to install an attenuator on the stack which generated the higher noise levels and to install deflectors on all six of the stacks. This project has progressed through planning, engineering design, compet- itive bidding, long lead material contracting, and contractor contracting. The actual construction will start shortly, • dependent on the weather. We are making a sincere effort to meet the nineteen week schedule and will meet or beat our March 31st commitment. As previously stated, Sperry is investing over $30,000 in specific noise abatement measures. We are doing this because Sperry is concerned about its relationship with its neighbors and the local community. The noise contro- versy, which has developed, is particularly difficult because of the complexity of measuring and of controlling a phenomenon which has many sources. I am convinced that the project, now in its final phases, will resolve the noise issue. I appreciate your patience and I am sure you will be pleased with the result.

Minnesota Pollution Control Agency February 28, 1984 Mr. John Gustin 3061 Woodlark Lane Eagan, Minnesota 55121 Dear Mr. GuStin: This is to acknowledge your letter dated Februlary 16, 1984, concerning the Sperry semiconductor factory in Eagan, and to respond to your concerns regarding air pollution. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) staff examined • information about the equipment for the recent plant expansion and the associated air emissions. Emissions of acids and caustics from the Sperry factory in Eagan are abated by air pollution control equipment. Based on the information available to the MPCA, air emissions from the plant do not create a health hazard. At such time as an operating permit is prepared for this plant, the MPCA will consider again whether any air emissions create a health hazard and whether further testing and/or more effective control is needed.

Turcotte Sperry'Corporation Semico ductor operations 1500 'Tower View Road Eagan, MN 55121 Dear Mr. Turcotte: PATENTS TRADE MARKS COPYRIGHTS Thank you for the courtesy of your reply of February 23, 1984 to my earlier letter to you. Unfortunately, your letter did not address many of the points I was attempting to raise, namely: 1. Why did Sperry, in September, provide a report to the City Council indicating decibel levels below the MPCA Standards when it must have known that such data was inaccurate? (I have been advised that when going out for bids, it advised prospective bidders that noise levels of 104 dB existed at the roof and that the noise levels were 63-65 dB 300 meters from the building.) 2. Why was it unilaterally decided that it was unnecessary to equip each of the six stacks on the roof with an attenuator? (Sperry first advised the City that each stack would have an attenuator and a diverter.) 3. Why was the 19 -week lead-time estimate not met, even though the scope of the project was reduced when Sperry decided that only one attenuator would need to be procured and installed? (The 19 -week estimate was given on October 16, 1983 and the period should have ended February 24, but on February 7, Mr. Michaud requested and obtained a six week extension from the City when Sperry had only placed an order for the hardware only two working days earlier.) 74- • E Mr. David C. Turcotte Page Two March 1, 1984 I would appreciate knowing how the $30,000 expenditure alluded to in your letter breaks down. We have it from a reliable source that the purchase price of the one attenuator being procured from the Joy Fan Company is $1600 and that the six diverters is a routine sheet metal job and should go for about $500 each. This would total $4600. if the balance of $25,400 represents internal costs to plan, design and contract for the $4600 hardware, something must be very wrong within your Plant Engineering and Procurement Operations or, with the accounting system. Also, if by your representation that the project costed $30,000, you are trying to impress the Timberline residents or the Eagan City officials with the size of the commitment, i would suggest that the amount pales in comparison to the cumulative damages which Sperry has subjected the residents to in terms of decreased property values, the time which has been spent and costs incurred in trying to get Sperry to do what is right in this matter and the emotional strain and irritation on the residents caused by Sperry's continued and protracted violations of the applicable R & D zoning which is supposed to be. controlling. The $30,000 is also small in comparison to Sperry's lost "good will" in the neighborhood. A great mistrust has been generated by the game -playing that has been going on since last summer and this will surely adversely impact the relationship between your company and the neighborhood over the years to come.

THE SYMBOL OF STRENGTH AND GROWTH IN OUR COMMUNITY MEMO TO: THOMAS L HEDGES, CITY ADMINISTRATOR • FROM: THOMAS A COLBERT, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS DATE: MARCH 1, 1984 SUBJECT: PUBLIC WORKS MAINTENANCE DEPARTMENT POLICY - DAMAGED BOULEVARD RESTORATION As you may be aware, during the first initial snowplowing opera- tions performed by the Public Works Maintenance Division, there are several locations where boulevard sod was damaged due to the fact that the ground had not yet frozen and the snowplow blade damaged a portion of frontyard areas due to the fact that it is very difficult to define the curb alignment for heavy accumulation first snow falls without previous snow banks to guide the way. Subsequently, the Public Works Maintenance Division receives a considerable number of phone calls notifying us of the damage situation as it occurs. Once the Maintenance Division receives this information, we make a list for repair the following spring. The Public Works Department has the following policy as it pertains to the restoration of these damaged areas: SOD REPLACEMENT: Those areas of lawns/boulevards that were • amaged y t e snowplow that can readily be repaired/restored through new sod installation will be performed by the Public Works crews as soon as sod becomes available from suppliers. Past experience indicates that, dependent upon wet/dry spring conditions, the average date that sod becomes available is approxi- mately May 15. SEEDING: Those areas that are too small to be effectively repaired/ restored with standard -width strips of sod are performed by placing high-quality topsoil and seed. This seed restoration can occur as soon as the last freeze has occurred which his- torically has been approximately May 1. Subsequently, we anticipate beginning this boulevard/lawn restora- tion approximately May 1 and anticipate that it will take approxi- mately one month to restore and repair all damaged areas within the City that occurred from the previous snow removal season. In the past, we have had good success and acceptance with this policy and procedure. If you receive any questions, comments, or complaints pertaining to boulevard damage and required restora- tion, I would appreciate it if you would forward it directly to Public Works Maintenance Division so that it can be incorporated in their list of repairs. Please feel free to share this with other individuals that you • feel may benefit by this information.
