H. PROJECT 938 NICOLS ROAD PIN OAK DRIVE TO CLIFF ROAD
SIDEWALK IIyIPROVEMENTS
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: Receive the Draft Feasibility. Report for Project 938 (Nicols
Road, Pin Oak Drive to Cliff Road — Sidewalk Improvements) and schedule a public hearing to be
held on June 6, 2006.
FACTS:
• On September 6, 2005, City staff received a petition containing 17 signatures representing 11.
properties along Nicols Road, requesting sidewalk improvements, along the east boulevard of
Nicols Road from Pin Oak Drive to Cliff Road.
• After reviewing the petition, staff requested that the petitioners collect signatures from additional
property owners along the east side of Nicols Road who would be impacted by the construction of
a sidewalk. The requested information was received from the petitioner on September 28, 2005.
• On October 18, 2005, the City Council received the petition and authorized the preparation of a
feasibility report by the City Engineer for Project 938 (Nicols Road, Pin Oak Drive to Cliff Road).
• A draft of this Feasibility Report has been prepared and is being presented to the Council for their
consideration of scheduling a public hearing for Tuesday, June 6, 2006.
• Nicols Road, from Pin Oak Drive to Cliff Road, is designated a minor collector roadway in the
City's Comprehensive Guide Plan. According to the City's Special Assessment Policy, the City's
Major Street Fund pays all costs associated with the installation of sidewalk adjacent to minor
collector roadways with no special assessments.
• An informational neighborhood meeting will be held with the adjacent property owners prior to a
public hearing to review and discuss the proposed improvements.
ISSUES:
• The proposed sidewalk was initially anticipated to be constructed on the east side of Nicols Road.
Letters were sent to adjacent property owners on the east side seeking their comments on this
potential sidewalk location. After identifying the impacts of the proposed construction and
discussions with impacted property owners, it was determined that an analysis of the impacts of
constructing the sidewalk on the west side of Nicols Road should be performed. Letters were sent
to adjacent property owners on the west side of Nicols Road as well as those individuals who
signed the original petition seeking their comments on this revised location of the proposed
sidewalk. Feedback was then received from impacted property owners on the west side of Nicols
Road. The resultant recommendation is to construct a segment of the sidewalk on the east side of
Nicols Road (from Pin Oak Drive to Nancy Circle) and a segment of the sidewalk on the west
side of Nicols Road (from Nancy Circle to Cliff Road) to reduce the impacts to adjacent
properties and provide better crossing opportunities for pedestrians and bicyclists using the
proposed sidewalk..
• On December 13, 2004, the City Council approved the Community Transportation Trail System
Policy for staff implementation. The policy states that proposed trail segments should be
evaluated with its criteria to ensure the utmost safety and practicality for the citizens of Eagan
while bearing in mind proper fiscal responsibility. The policy also states that its guidelines should
be used as a general method to rank all future trail segments to be constructed as public
improvements. In reviewing the proposed trail segment, the trailpolicy evaluation indicated a
medium to, high ranking. The requested segment of sidewalk is not included in the City's
Transportation Trail System.

Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer Plan and Water Supply and Distribution Plan by
Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik and Associates in accordance with the Metropolitan Land
Planning Act and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to. execute all related documents.
FACTS:
The Metropolitan Council is responsible for planning of the regional water supply for
the seven -county metropolitan region. It is also responsible for the operation and
maintenance of eight wastewater treatment plants in the Twin Cities, which treats
most of the wastewater from the seven -county metro region.
Under the Metropolitan Land Planning Act, local communities must prepare and
submit to the Metropolitan Council local comprehensive plans that are consistent with
the Council's regional system plans. The new or updated local comp plans will be due
in 2008.
The Metropolitan Land Planning Act requires that "within three years following the
receipt of the metropolitan system statement, every local governmental unit shall have
prepared a comprehensive plan" and "shall have submitted the plan to the
Metropolitan Council for review".
• The City of Eagan has been developing since the late 1950s. To accommodate this
growth, an extensive sanitary sewer and water infrastructure system was constructed
over the years based on various related sanitary sewer and water system plans. The
most recent Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer plan update occurred in 2000, while the
current Water Supply and Distribution Plan was last updated in 1996.
With 99% of our city's sanitary sewer system installed, the total cost of the
preparation of this final amendment to our Sanitary Sewer Plan will be $15,000. The
fee would be charged to the Trunk Sanitary Sewer Utility Fund. The update of the
Water Supply and Distribution Plan will include much more detail and computer
modeling analysis and accordingly will have a higher cost of $43,000. This fee
would be charged to the Trunk Water Utility Fund.

K. PEDESTRIAN COUNTDOWN INDICATIONS
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: Authorize the installation of Pedestrian Countdown
Indicators on the traffic signal at the intersection of Trunk Highway 13 and Silver Bell
Road.
FACTS:
• Some pedestrians do not understand the international pedestrian crossing symbols at
traffic signals and therefore cannot make informed judgments about adequate time
available to cross a signalized intersection. The countdown pedestrian indication
(CPI) provides pedestrians with additiona1 information, specifically a descending
numerical countdown of the flashing hand clearance interval, which indicates to the
pedestrian the remaining time available for their safe crossing and is intended to be
intuitively understood. With this additional information, the pedestrian can make
better decisions about their crossing time and speed.
• The Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) completed a study of CPI's
to determine whether the new pedestrian indication was understood by pedestrians.
The results of the study determined that the additional information provided by CPI's
was intuitively understood and used successfully by pedestrians.
• A more extensive study of CPI's was conducted in San Francisco, CA and found that
CPI's were associated with a decrease in pedestrian injuries and fewer pedestrians
finishing their crossing maneuver on red.
• Both studies found minimal maintenance impacts from the installation of CPI's.
• Mn/DOT Electrical Services Section (ESS) will furnish and install the CPI's, with a
total estimated cost of $2,300. This cost will split evenly between Mn/DOT and the
City of Eagan, with each agency contributing $1,150 for the CPI's. The City's
portion of the cost would be paid from the Traffic Signal Maintenance fund..

L. WETLANDS. EXEMPTION - UTILITY PIPELINE UPGRADE
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: Approve the exemption of wetland activity within
Public Right -of -Way for the purpose of utility pipe replacement and authorize the Water
Resources Coordinator to execute all related documents.
FACTS:
• Xcel Energy has applied for a Certificate of No -Loss or Exemption in accordance
with the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) to allow work on an existing
26" gas pipeline in the public right-of-way along Highway 13.
• The pipeline currently supplies' natural gas to St. Paul at a pressure of 350 psi for
domestic/household purposes. As part of the conversion of the currently coal fired
High Bridge Generating Plant to gas fired fuel as part of the Metro Emissions
Reduction Project, this existing pipeline will also supply the gas for this plant. In
order to adequately provide for the power plant the pressure will be increased to 690
psi.
• The purpose of the construction activity along Highway 13 is to remove and seal
abandoned farm taps and replace segments of the existing pipe, as needed. The utility
work within the area of the wetland delineation will actually involve directionally
drilling under the wetland.
• WCA rules provide that the local government unit (LGU) is responsible for wetland -
related decisions. The rules allow decision authority to be placed with staff according
to procedures established by the LGU.
• On November 8, 2001, the City Council delegated the decision authority for
exemption, wetland type, wetland boundary, and no -loss determinations to the Water
Resources Coordinator while retaining. approval authority for replacement and
wetland banking plans.
• Recent special interests and challenges to wetland -related decisions have resulted in
administrative procedures whereby all authorized staff decisions are formally
reviewed and affirmed by the City Council.
• There will be no net loss of wetland as a result of the construction and only minimal
impacts to wetlands along the pipeline route.
• WCA provides an exemption for public works and utility related activities under MN
Rules 8420.0122 S'ubp 6.B and E. The Xcel Energy application has been reviewed by
the Engineering Division and found to be in order for favorable Council action.

Subject: Application for Certificate of No Loss or Exemption
Xcel Energy is proposing to upgrade 9.5 miles of an existing 26 inch gas pipeline
by increasing the pressure In the line from 350 psig to 690 psig in order to supply
gas to our High Bridge Generating Plant in St. Paul, Minnesota. This pipeline
has been in its current location sin, ce 1952.
The High Bridge Plant is being changed from coal fired to natural gas find as
part of the Metropolitan Emissions Reduction Program (MERP). Consequently,
Xcel Energy has a need to upgrade this gas line to provide additional fuel for this
plant.
The increase in pressure in the existing line necessitates removal of abandoned
faun taps and replacement of some sections of the pipeline. Construction
methods for the pipeline project include trench and fill and directional bore.
Included are maps showing the project area and Plan and Profile sheets showing
project elevations and wetland areas. (Figures 1 to 44) There are no DNR
protected waters located within the project area (Figure 45). National Wetland
inventory maps are included in Figures 46 to 50. Only one Wetland area is
identified on the NWI maps (Figure 49). This area is a MN Department of
Transportation (DOT) recharge pond which will be directional bored under. The
DOT has been contacted regarding this pond and has no issues with Xcel
Energy boring under it.
This project should be exempt as per Exemption Standards in MN Rules
8420.0122 Subp 6 B and E.
An Application for Certification. of No Loss or Exemption is included with this
letter. All BMPs will be implemented and maintained during construction in and
around the pipeline area.

May 2, 2006, Eagan City Council Meeting
N.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
To authorize the submission of a letter supporting the implementation of the First Phase development of
the Cedar Grove West Transit Station.
FACTS:
The City of Eagan has established a vision for the Cedar Grove Redevelopment Area as a transit
oriented and pedestrian oriented development, including plans for a full service transit station to
be a part of the implementation of the development.
A The City has also worked closely with MVTA, Dakota County and other cities to promote and
pursue implementation of the Cedar Avenue BRT project. In particular, the City has cooperated
with the MVTA in a consultant study to refine the concept for short and long term development
of the transit station. The preliminary results of that project were reported to the MVTA Board at
its meeting of April 26, 2006.
➢ The study conclusion is that the most feasible alternative is to develop a transit station at the west
end of the Cedar Grove Redevelopment Area in excess right of way lying between Cedar Avenue
and Nicola Road. In the first phase, the station would consist of 140 surface parking stalls and a.
station/waiting area on Nicols Road. In the second phase, a BRT platform would be .constructed
in the median between. the north and southbound lanes of Cedar Avenue, the parking would be
expanded to over 200 stalls and a pedestrian bridge would be built between the parking area and
the new BRT platform.
Decisions regarding future funding of construction of the phases will be made by the MVTA and
the Cedar Corridor Transit Group. If MnDOT approves the study conclusions and concludes that
the proposed construction can be accomplished while leaving sufficient right of way for fiture
Cedar Avenue needs, it is possible that the property necessary to implement the first phase transit
station could be transferred from MnDOT to the appropriate recipient (MVTA, Dakota County or
Met Council) in the near term and that construction of the first phase transit station could be
programmed within the next year or two.
While the formal process by which those decisions would be sequenced is not yet determined,
staff is requesting Council consideration of authorization of the submission of comments to
MVTA, Dakota County, Met Council and any other appropriate agency encouraging decision
makers in those agencies to allocate funds and program improvements to have the first phase of
the transit station in place at the earliest practical time, both to solidify transit opportunities for
current and new Cedar Grove residents in the near term and to begin investment in improvements
that will facilitate the full BRT station's construction, when it is practical and feasible.

generally to other properties in the same zone or vicinity, and result from lot size or
shape, topography, or other circumstances over which the owners of property have no
control.

property use commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same district under the
provisions of this Code.
c. That special conditions or circumstances. do not result from actions of the applicant.
Planning Report -Granite City Food and Brewery Variance Request
May 2, 2006
Page 2 of 4
d. That granting of the variance will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is
denied by this Ordinance to owners of other lands, structures or buildings in the same
district.
e. The variance requested is the minimum variance which would alleviate the hardship.
f. The variance would not be materially detrimental to the purposes of this Code or to
property in the same zone.
CGDE REQUIREMENTS
City Code Section 11.70, Subd. 8, requires a 20 -foot parking surface setback from all public
rights-of-way.
City Code Section 11.70, Subd. 5, requires at least one (1) parking space for each three (3) seats
based on capacity design.
BACKGROUNDMISTORY
The subject site was originally constructed in 1998 as a Sidney's restaurant and was operated as
such until 2005 when the property underwent an extensive remodel and conversion to a Granite
City Food and Brewery. The remodel was limited mainly to interior improvements with some
exterior material changes. The basic footprint and parking lot configuration did not change.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
The subject site currently contains a
7,700 square foot full service
restaurant/bar with a capacity of 251 and
a parking area of 84 spaces. The existing
parking area is currently setback 20 feet
from the Pilot Knob Road right-of-way.
There is a distance of 60 feet from the
traveled edge of Pilot Knob Road and the
subject property line. A 6 -foot high berm
is located between the curb edge of Pilot
Knob Road and existing parking area.
The property owner also has a cross
parking agreement with adjacent property
owners for additional parking.

Planning Report -Granite City Food and Brewery Variance Request
May 2, 2006
Page 3 of 4
EVALUATION OF REQUEST
Granite City is proposing a parking lot reconfiguration and expansion that would add total of 31
new spaces to the site. The proposed plan would remove the large planting island in the parking
area north of the building and realign the drive aisle in a north -south direction. In order to
accommodate an appropriate drive aisle width, the parking area would need to expand 9 feet into
the required 20 -foot parking setback at this location. Also, 20 additional stalls are proposed at
the west side of the building parallel to Pilot Knob Road. In order to accommodate an
appropriate drive aisle width and parking stall size, the construction of these stalls would require
an encroachment of 14 feet inside the required 20 -foot parking setback. This area will also
encroach into the 10 -foot drainage and utility easement. Although the city typically allows
parking lots located within these easements, the applicant should show proof that no utilities are
located in this area.
The proposed parking lot plan will require removal of some existing landscape material in the
north parking lot and along Pilot Knob Road. The applicant has submitted a revised landscape
plan, that shows the addition of 7 new overstory trees and extensive use of various low growing
shrubs and perennials within the new planting islands. Also, the plan provides adequate
screening of the west 200 feet of parking area along Pilot Knob with the addition of extensive
new plant material in this location, inside the property line.
It appears that the relatively large distance between the subject property line and the traveled curb
edge of Pilot Knob Road, and additional landscaping will minimize the visual impact of the
requested encroachment.
APPLICANT'S ESTIMATE OF HARDSHIP
The applicant would like to. provide additional parking to meet the demand of their new business.
The applicant has stated that the existing parking spaces do not provide enough parking due to
the success of their restaurant, causing patrons to use the ,city street, drive aisles, and fire lanes.
The applicant believes that the additional parking will help alleviate these problems and provide
better access to the site and adjacent properties for emergency vehicles.
The applicant has also stated that the business will remain open during the construction period
and all site work will be coordinated with the City of Eagan and Dakota County, implementing
proper erosion control measures.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION
Granite City Food and Brewery is requesting a maximum 14 -foot encroachment into the required
20 -foot parking lot setback from Pilot Knob Road to expand their parking lot. The applicant has
stated that the amount of existing parking spaces is inadequate to accommodate the demand at
Planning Report -Granite City Food and Brewery Variance Request

the subject site for better access for their patrons and emergency vehicles. The size of the
existing site is limited; however, the underutilized portion of right-of-way in this location is
relatively large, minimizing the visual impact from Pilot Knob Road.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED
To approve (OR direct findings of fact for denial) a Variance of 14 feet from the required 20 -
foot parking setback from Pilot Knob Road for property located at Lot 1, Block 1, Marice
Addition. If approved, the following conditions should apply:
1. If within one year after approval, the variance shall not have been completed or utilized, it
shall become null and void unless a petition for extension has been granted by the
council. Such extension shall be requested in writing at least 30 days before expiration
and shall state facts showing a good faith attempt to complete or utilize the use permitted
in the variance.
2.',, Prior to commencing grading and construction activities, the applicant shall show that no
utilities are being impacted within the easement encroachment area along Pilot Knob
Road. If utilities are impacted, the applicant shall move utilities at their own expense, if
required.
3. The applicant shall replace and improve landscaping on the subject site in accordance
with the submitted landscape plan dated April 11, 2006.
4. The applicant shall be responsible for obtaining any permits necessary from Dakota
County and coordinating all site work with the City and County.

Request for Variance
Granite City Food and Brewery
3330 Pilot Knob Road
St. Louis Park, MN
To whom it may concern,
Granite City Food and Brewery (GCFB) requests a variance for parking setback for the above listed property. There is no request to
modify any zoning classification.
The Comprehensive Guide Plan designation is included in the special area with mixed use.
The Zoning classification is unlimited business.
The existing land use is for a restaurant which is an approved use for the site.
GCFB intends to complete site construction drawings in April 2006 and start minor grading and new parking lot construction as soon as
possible and allowed in May 2006. GCFB will remain open during site work and will coordinate work with City of Eagan and Dakota
County. All site preparation work will be completed with erosion control measures implemented.
The request for variance is based on the need for additional parking to provide ample public parking for a successful restaurant
business. The existing 84 parking spaces do not provide the necessary amount of parking needed for a successful restaurant like GCFB.
There is a cross parking easement with other adjacent properties though this is still exceeded at this time. The revised parking plan will
maximize the amount of parking spaces by adding 31 new parking spaces but requires adjustment of the parking setback along Pilot
Knob Road to be 6 feet and 11 feet in lieu of 20 feet. This will provide 116 parking spaces on the GCFB property.
The request for variance is required because there are site issues created by the limited parking. Patrons are parking on the side roads
and along the driveway entrance, dumpster areas and fire lanes. This is a safety issue for emergency vehicle access and service for the
site and adjacent properties. The revised parking lot and additional parking will help remove these issues.
Existing site conditions drawing is attached per survey completed by MFRA. There is little grade modifications that needs to occur to
accomplish the new parking areas as indicated in the plan drawing. The revised parking lot will require new landscaping as shown in the
attached drawing.
Thank you for your consideration of this variance request. Additional questions can be answered by Steve Kalkman at SJA Architects or
Mark Anderson at MFRA.

Regular City Council Meeting
VI. ORGANIZATIONAL BUSINESS
A. Advisory Commission Appointments
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
Appoint members to the City Council's Advisory Commission, with terms beginning in May
2006
Appoint members to the Gun Club Watershed Management Organization, with terms beginning
in May 2006
FACTS:
• Per the Council's direction, Advisory Commissions appointments are made in April or early May
of each year.
• Advertising for the Commission vacancies takes place year-round, with an emphasis in
recruitment from January — March.
• There were 29 applicants this year. Of those 29 applicants, 25 were able to attend their
scheduled interview with the City Council on April 24 and April 25.
• The City Council will be asked to vote via ballots to fill the vacancies for the various lengths of
Commission terms — 3 years, 2 years, 1 year and 1 year alternate terms.
• Per the Council's Guidelines for Commission Appointment Policy, in the event of a stalemate
after three rounds of voting on a specific Commission appointment, the Mayor shall have the
authority to make the appointment of the specific term that resulted in the stalemate.
• The new Commissioners appointed tonight will be invited to participate in a new commission
member orientation on Tuesday, May 9 at 6:00 p.m. Orientation packets will also be provided to
new Commissioners. The orientation is an opportunity for the Commissioners to learn about the
role of the advisory commissioners, and it is also a chance for the new members to meet with
their commission's staff liaison for more detailed information about the workings of their
specific commission.
• Included on the consent agenda was the resignation of two APC members. Therefore, two
additional vacancies are now available on the APC which will be noted on your ballots.
• There are 4 openings for the Gun Club Lake Watershed Management Organization. It has been
past practice that applicants for the WMO have not been interviewed but appointments are made
at the same time as the advisory commissions. There are 5 applicants requesting appointment to
the WMO.
• The City Council has copies of all the applications, including the WMO, which were included in
the binder that was distributed prior to the applicant's interviews.
• Rather than duplicating all of the applications, the Council is asked to bring their binders to
the May 2 City Council meeting
ATTACHMENTS:
• Enclosed on page is a summary of the number of openings that exist on each advisory
commission.
• Enclosed on page D __ is a REVISED summary of applicants' commission preferences based on
the preferences voiced during the interviews.

Agenda Information Memo
May 2, 2006, Eagan City Council Meeting
A. PROJECT 934, CLIFF ROADBLACKHAWK ROAD/GALAXIE AVENUE
INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS .
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: Receive feasibility report and authorize the
preparation of detailed plans and specifications for a contract that may be let within 2
years after said approval and the acquisition of right-of-way and easements through
quick -take Eminent Domain, if necessary.
FACTS:
• The reconfiguration of the intersection of Cliff Road (County State Aid Highway 32)
and Blackhawk Road/Galaxie Avenue with associated- traffic signal improvements
has been programmed for 2006 in the City's and Dakota County's 5 -Year Capital
Improvement Programs.
• On June 7, 2005, the City Council authorized the preparation of a feasibility report
identifying the scope, cost, financing and schedule of the proposed improvements to
this intersection.
• The intersection currently includes a left -turn lane and a shared through/right-turn
lane for Blackhawk Road and Galaxie Avenue. The traffic signal has permissive left
turns (No arrows) for Blackhawk Road/Galaxie Avenue. The intersection operates at
an overall acceptable level of service during peak hour conditions. However, Galaxie
Avenue experiences heavy delays during the morning peak hour. In addition, both
Blackhawk Road and Galaxie Avenue operate poorly during the evening peak. The
poor operations are due to the high number of left -turns from Blackhawk
Road/Galaxie Avenue onto Cliff Road.
• A review of the crash data for 2005 indicates 12 reported crashes at the intersection.
This intersection crash rate is 0.90 crashes per million vehicle miles and has a
severity rate of 2.75 crashes per million vehicle miles. The MnDOT average crash
and severity rate for similar high volume/high speed intersections in the Metro area is
0.80 and 1.60, respectively.
• This proposed improvement will widen the intersection to provide an additional lane
on Galaxie Ave and. Blackhawk Rd creating separate left turn, straight through and
right turn lanes. Temporary construction easements will be necessary from some
adjacent property owners. Since the proposed intersection reconfiguration benefits the
traveling community as a whole as an operational and safety improvement, no
assessments are proposed. Subsequently, no formal public hearings are required. In
March 2006, advanced notices of this pending capital improvement were sent to all
affected property owners.
• An agreement between the City of Eagan. and the Dakota County Transportation
Department is being prepared providing for the cost, maintenance, and operation of
the proposed improvements. TheCity's financial share of these improvements is
estimated to be about $289,300. ''he County will be sharing 50% of the construction,
`�l
engineering, and inspection costs for the signal modifications and median and
pedestrian ramp improvements. The Estimated Total Construction Cost is $401,600.

B. PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AMENDMENTS — HAR MAR, INC.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
To approve (or direct Findings of Fact for Denial) a Planned Development Amendment to

at 1565 Cliff Road in the SW'/4 of Section 28 subject to the conditions listed in the draft APC
Minutes.
To approve (or direct Findings of Fact for Denial) a Planned Development Amendment to
allow the replacement of the pylon sign for the in-line retail building located at 1565 Cliff Road
in the SW'/4 of Section 28 subject to the conditions listed in the draft APC Minutes.
To approve (or direct Findings of Fact for Denial) a Planned Development Amendment to
allow changes to the appearance & accessibility on the north side of the in-line retail building
located at 1565 Cliff Road in the SW 1/4 of Section 28 subject to the conditions listed in the draft'
APC Minutes.
To approve (or direct Findings of Fact for Denial) a Planned Development Amendment to
allow a change to tenant signage on the north side of the inline retail building located at 1565
Cliff Road in the SW'/4 of Section 28 subject to the conditions listed in the draft APC Minutes.
REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: Majority of members present
FACTS:
➢ The subject 5.8 acre Lot 1, Block 1, Thomas Lake Center, is fully developed with a 43,000
SF in-line retail building. The retail center was constructed in 1987.
➢ The applicant is proposing to replace the out -dated pylon sign and is proposing improvements
to the side north of the building will both add aesthetic value to the site and area. In addition,
the applicant is requesting approval of outdoorstorage for up to ten passenger vehicles or
light duty trucks in parking stalls located on the north side of the building.
➢ The APC discussed the value of the reinvestment the applicant is proposing for the property
and the way in which it can update the center and integrate it better with Lifetime Fitness to
the north. The Commission noted that certain aspects of the application lacked the level of
detail to permit it to clearly define what would be permitted under the PD amendment being
requested and, in the action, asked the developer to address those issues in advance of the
City Council meeting.
➢ The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on April 25, 2006 and the
commission is recommending approval of the modification of the pylon sign and outdoor
storage/parking, subject to conditions. The Commission recommended denial of the fagade
and signing modifications for the reasons noted in the Issues section below and detailed in the
Commission minutes.
ISSUES:
➢ The APC added conditions to specify the outdoor storage and requested that the applicant
provide additional "detail regarding site/building improvements on the north side of the site
before the, City Council meeting. Revised plans were received on Thursday, April 27, 2006.
➢ While the APC recommended approving the PD amendment for the pylon sign, it was with
the condition that the sign would not exceed its current height and area. The applicant
indicated that the height would remain the same, but he has been asked to confirm the extent
to which the proposed sign can conform to the area requirement or whether he is asking for
the new sign to exceed the current sign area.
➢ In recommending denial of the fagade improvements on the north side of the building and the
north side signage modifications, the APC indicated that the intent of the north side upgrades
is positive, if sufficient detail can be provided showing a site plan and building elevation with
material specifications, to permit the City to confirm the exact nature of the improvements
being requested.
➢ The developer has indicated that the pylon sign, outdoor storage and north side fagade
modifications are the priorities and that the north side signage issue can be addressed in the
future. Because of the agency deadline, the applicant will either need to withdraw that part of
the PD amendment application or consent to an extension of the 60 day deadline. Otherwise,
the Council will need to take action to approve or deny that aspect of the application.
➢ Staff has discussed with the developer the need to show in the detailed site plan, how the
outdoor storage/parking would be screened from the north by landscaping or other means.

CASE: 28 -PA -05-03-06

APPLICATION DATE: March 15, 2006
REQUEST: Planned Development Amendments PREPARED BY: Michael J. Ridley, AICP
LOCATION: 1565 Cliff Road
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: RC, Retail Commercial
ZONING: PD, Planned Development
SUMMARY OF REQUEST,
The applicant is requesting approval of Planned Development Amendments to allow overnight
parking (outdoor storage), replacement of the pylon sign, changes to the appearance &
accessibility on the north side of the center and a change to tenant signage on the north side of
the in-line retail building located on Lot 1, Block 1, Thomas Lake Center at 1565 Cliff Road in
the SW '/4 of Section 28.
AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW
Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subdivision 5 states, in part,
1. The provisions of this chapter maybe amended by the majority vote of the council, except
that amendments changing the boundaries of any district or changing the regulations of any
district may only be made by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of all members of the council.
2. The Council shall not rezone any land in any zoning district or make any other proposed
amendment to this chapter without first having referred it to the planning commission for its
consideration and recommendation.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
The in-line, retail center was constructed in 1987. The six lot Thomas Lake Center subdivision also
includes parcels that developed subsequent to the neighborhood center. These other lots presently
host the following land uses: Lifetime Fitness overflow parking, a quick -lube, convenience gas,
automobile service and a Class I restaurant.
Planning Report — Thomas Lake Center PD Amendment
April 25, 2006
Page 2
The subject 5.8 acre Lot 1, Block 1, Thomas Lake Center, is fully developed with a 43,000 SF in-
line retail building.
SURROUNDING USES
The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the
subject property:
EVALUATION OF REQUEST
The proposed upgrades represent further investment by Har -Mar, Inc. in Eagan and the 20 year
old Thomas Lake Center. Each facet of the request is evaluated below:
Outdoor Storage
The issue of outdoor storage arose in relation to an existing daycare operation at the center that
has two vans that are used to tote the daycare kids to various activities. The vans remain on-site
during non -business hours. By ordinance, anything stored outside overnight is considered
outdoor storage and, as such, requires a CUP — or in this case, a PD Amendment.
The applicant has submitted a Site Plan that highlights 22 of the 34 parking stalls on the north
side of the building as overnight parking. The applicant states "At this time, only the daycare has
requested to park one or two vehicles in this area overnight. This is not intended for storage
vehicles, only overnight convenience parking for specifically pre -approved tenants. Approval to
park overnight is given only on a tenant -by -tenant basis and only by Slawik Properties"
This approval scenario is contrary to the typical Advisory Planning Commission (APC) and City
Council review/requirement of specifying not only the location but also the type and number of
items to be stored.
Pylon Sign
The.applicant is proposing to replace the existing, outdated, pylon sign. The proposed 27' tall
replacement pylon sign will have a programmable, double -sided, reader board along with fixed
tenant identification panels. The reader board is proposed to have a single color LED display

old Thomas Lake Center. Each facet of the request is evaluated below:
Outdoor Storage
The issue of outdoor storage arose in relation to an existing daycare operation at the center that
has two vans that are used to tote the daycare kids to various activities. The vans remain on-site
during non -business hours. By ordinance, anything stored outside overnight is considered
outdoor storage and, as such, requires a CUP — or in this case, a PD Amendment.
The applicant has submitted a Site Plan that highlights 22 of the 34 parking stalls on the north
side of the building as overnight parking. The applicant states "At this time, only the daycare has
requested to park one or two vehicles in this area overnight. This is not intended for storage
vehicles, only overnight convenience parking for specifically pre -approved tenants. Approval to
park overnight is given only on a tenant -by -tenant basis and only by Slawik Properties"
This approval scenario is contrary to the typical Advisory Planning Commission (APC) and City
Council review/requirement of specifying not only the location but also the type and number of
items to be stored.
Pylon Sign
The.applicant is proposing to replace the existing, outdated, pylon sign. The proposed 27' tall
replacement pylon sign will have a programmable, double -sided, reader board along with fixed
tenant identification panels. The reader board is proposed to have a single color LED display

that will display time/temperature and a message area that could be programmed to change the
message twice a day.
The Sign Ordinance states "No signs are allowed which contain moving sections or intermittent
or flashing lights, except for intermittent display of time and temperature." However, the
proposed limited message changing can be accommodated via the PD Amendment. City Policy
makers shall determine the appropriateness of this Sign Ordinance deviation.
Appearance & Accessibility Improvements
The applicant is proposing to improve the appearance of the center from Thomas Lake Drive by
adding landscaping and planters to lessen the "one-sided center" appearance. The owner is also
reviewing the possibility of adding accessible storefronts to the north side or an enclosed access
from the north side to the south (front) side of the building.
It appears the proposed improvements will enhance the appearance of the center from Thomas
Lake Drive and, subsequently, Lifetime Fitness.
Modification of Tenant Building Signage
According to the applicant, some tenants have expressed a desire to change the present type of
signage on the north side of the building facing Lifetime Fitness. Presently, the signage on the
building is compliant with the Sign Ordinance requirement for a consistent style and type of
signage. The front or south side tenant signage contains all back -lit, channel letters and tenant
signage on the north side of the building is all non -lit, "cut out" lettering.

Staff has reservations with only a partial or piecemeal change -out of signage on the north side. If
the sign changeover on the north side is not complete and uniform, the end result will appear
inconsistent and haphazard. City Policy makers shall determine the appropriateness of this Sign
Ordinance deviation.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION
The applicant's proposed improvements to the property represent a desired reinvestment in the
property and Eagan. Specifically, replacing the out -dated pylon sign and the proposed
improvements to the site north of the building will add aesthetic value to the site and area.
The lack of definition regarding the outdoor storage is inconsistent with previously approved
outdoor storage requests and the partial change -out of tenant signage on the north side of the
building present an unknown moving forward. The APC and City Council will need to
determine the suitability of these components of the proposed amendments.
The conditions of approval listed below require specificity of the outdoor storage and that any
change to tenant signage on'the north side of the building will be uniform and complete.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED
To recommend approval of a Planned Development Amendment to allow overnight parking
(outdoor storage) on the north side of the in-line retail building located at 1565 Cliff Road in the
SW i/4 of Section 28. If approved the following conditions shall apply:
1. The developer shall execute and record the Planned Development Amendment
Agreement at Dakota County within 60 days of City Council approval.
2, The developer shall provide information specifying the exact number, type and tenant -
owner of all vehicles to be stored outdoors overnight.
To recommend approval of a Planned Development Amendment to allow the replacement of
the pylon sign for the in-line retail building located at 1565.Cliff Road in the SW '/4 of Section
28. If approved the following conditions shall apply:

Agreement at Dakota County within 60 days of City Council approval.
2. The developer shall obtain a Sign Permit prior to removal/replacement of the pylon sign.
3. The LED copy or message shall change no more than two times in any 24 hour period,
this does not pertain to time/temperature.

storefronts to the north for some of the appropriate businesses will lessen the "one sided center"
that currently fronts toward Cliff Road.
This work will be accomplished without affecting the present land use, parking, utilities or city

conditions listed in the staff report.
REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: Majority of members present

the Planned Development, and adding additional square footage is not appropriate.
➢ The proposed garage addition does not add balance to the development or the area.

report dated April 4, 2M. She noted the background and history.
Chair Heyl opened the public hearing.
There being no public comment, Chair Heyl closed the public hearing and turned the discussion
back to the Commission.
Chair Hey[ asked if there is a possibility for another three car garage request. Community
Development Director Jon Hohenstein responded another request for a three car garage would
be unlikely due to the setbacks between the other units and the topography by the end units,
however nothing prevents the developer from asking for future PD amendments.
Paul Danielson, Engineer, stated this is the only lot that would accommodate a three car garage
due to the layout of the property. He discussed aspects of this unit that have made it difficult to
market and stated the tree line will remain the same.
Member Gladhill stated the proposal is comparable to two additional garage stalls, with
dimensions of 19.7'x 21'.
Chair Heyl stated the total garage square footage seems high. She stated the development
was crowded as originally presented and an 800 square foot garage on a 2,000 square foot
townhome is excessive.
Member Dugan stated concern that over 1/3 of the home is going to b"arage space.
Member Hansen stated he agrees that the area is crowded.

Written Narrative for
Lexington Ridge Development
The developer is proposing to amend the planned development to include the
construction of a garage addition to Lot 16, Block 1 of Lexington Ridge. This lot is the
first lot as you enter the development on the south side of the street. To date, all of the 16
unit town homes have been constructed with the sale on 5 units currently completed.
This amendment to the planned development will result in an additional drive access to
the currently constructed private street.- This garage addition will provide symmetry to
the development in that the unit across the street will be matched from the east setback
line. Lot 16 is one of the more difficult lots to market and this will provide an
opportunity to provide an amenity to this unit that will make it intriguing to the buyer and
another unique unit within this urban village setting: `
This amendment will not have a detrimental affect on. the swrounding property or land
uses. This amendment simply provides another mix of housing type in this area. Just
like some buyers like a 3 or 4 bedroom home, other buyers would prefer a 3 -stall to a 2 -
stall garage. There is no impact to public infrastructure and will have no impact to the
surrounding properties outside this s6cluded development
The architecture will match the existing town homes and will incorporate similar building
materials and style. We believe this will simply add diversity to the building construction
and will supplement the unique architectural character in this environment.
The timing of construction is to complete the addition once the necessary approvals from
the City have been granted.
The developer is committed to allowing this to be the only building modification within
this development.

Subject: Lexington Ridge
I had an issue this evening that kept 'me from being on time to the Planning commission meeting. l arrived just in
time to hear the vote. I was deeply distressed over the fact that I think I could have answered questions that may
have shed a different light on the subject. I didn't intend that Paul Danielson (who coincidently helped me with
the original planning of LR but was at the meeting for the Oak Hills presentation) would present to you but he
tried to give you some information. He wasn't expected have all the facts but given he was there, he tried to
help. I don't know what to do at this point and I don't know the protocol on the matter given it was voted.
down. I would like to at least make an effort to explain my reasoning.
1. Although the buyer of this unit would like an additional stall for their garage, the idea of the garage was in
process prior to their purchase and their purchase of the unit is not dependent on the additional garage.
This proposal is NOT because of a potential buyer (although it would certainly be a bonus to them). I am
not asking to have this garage approved for economic reasons.
2. 1 am asking for the ability to build an additional garage for reasons which you mentioned. First, it would
bring continuity to the development. The single stall garage would be built to the setback line. (This would
allow for one additional stall, not two as was assumed.) The line of the garage would not make this
development more crowded but 1 think rather it would be more consistent with the unit across the street;
both sides of the street would start at the setback line.
3. It would give privacy to the street and sidewalk in addition to the backyard of lot 16 (just like all; the
remaining units in the development).
4. The development needs storage of utilities for the association's electric and water meters. The utilities were
planned to be located in the area of the proposed garage. If the garage was approved they could, be hidden
from public, view and safely placed behind the garage.
5. There were comments tonight that the development was already more crowded than it should. My
perspective is that the density of LR that was approved is close to what could have been designed with the
original R-1 zoning. We only have 16 units in 6 acres. We designed LR as a small community in the midst of
parks. In fact we designed the units together in order to donate over 1/3- of the land back to the City as a
Conservation easement.
6,. Not that public agreement should be the reason to approve or deny this request, I think it is worth noting
that 11 of the 16 units are sold and 100% of the home owners approve of this request for all the reasons
stated above.
These are just some of my thoughts on why I asked for approval. If any of you have thoughts on this I would
appreciate your comments.

separate parcels for his existing home and a future development site.
➢ The subject site is located within Noise Zone 4 and the proposed residential use is
considered conditional.
➢ Although development was not proposed at that time, the APC and City Council

LOCATION: 2115 Silver Bell Road
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: LD — Low Density
ZONING: R-1, Single Family
SUMMARY OF REQUEST
PREPARED BY: Michael J. Ridley, AICP
The City is initiating a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment from LD — Low Density to
HD — High Density and a Rezoning of a 1.29 acre site from R-1, Single Family to R-4,
Residential Multiple. This request stems from the APC and Council's consideration of a
subdivision request made by the property owner last spring.
AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW
Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment:
The city's Comprehensive Guide Plan was prepared pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section
473.864. As defined by statute, the Land Use Plan is a guide and may be amended from time to
time as conditions change. The city's Guide Plan is to be implemented by official controls such
as zoning and other fiscal devices. The creation* ofland use districts and zoning is a formulation
of public policy and a legislative act. As such, the classification of land uses must reasonably
relate to promoting the public health, safety, morals and general welfare. When a change to a
city's Comprehensive Guide Plan is requested, it is the city's responsibility to determine if the
change is in the best long-range interests of the city. The standard of review of a city's action in
approving or denying a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment is whether there exists a rational
basis. A rational basis standard has been described to mean having legally sufficient reasons
supportable by the facts which promote the general health, safety and welfare of the city.

Planning Report — Kennealy CGA & RZ
April 25, 2006
Rezoning:
City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subd. 5 states in part,
1. The provisions of this chapter may be amended by the majority -vote of the council,
except that amendments changing the regulations of any district may only be made by an
affirmative vote of two-thirds of all members of the council.
2. The City Council shall not rezone any land or area in any zoning district or make any
other proposed amendment to the zoning ordinance without first having referred it to the
planning commission for its consideration and recommendation.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
The City Council approved a two -lot Preliminary Subdivision of the two acre property in April
2005. At that time, staff opined that adding. additional single family detached homes to the
Wuthering Heights area would be inconsistent with the impact of aircraft noise generated by the
new north/south runway at MSP.
The following quote is an excerpt from the 2005 Kennealy Preliminary Subdivision report:
"Because of its location in the noise zone and its adjacency to existing R-4 property, it maybe
appropriate for the eastern portion of this property to be developed as apartments rather than as
single-family homes. This would provide an extension of the existing multiple residential
development on property to the east, and create new development that is compatible. with existing
and anticipated development in the area and with the airport noise exposure."
Subsequently, on April 19, 2005, the City Council took an action to direct staff to initiate a
rezoning from R-1 to R-4 for the newly created (out)lot after the Final Subdivision was approved
and recorded.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
The subject 1.29 acre outlot is vacant; however, the property that was subdivided contains a
single family home that was constructed in 1958.
SURROUNDING USES
The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the
subject property:
North- Single family residential zoned R-1 and Guided LD, Low Density.
South - Tesseract School; zoned CGD and Guided Special Area.
East - Apartment building; zoned R-4 and Guided HD, High Density.
West - Single family residential zoned R-1 and Guided LD, Low Density.

Planning Report — Kennealy CGA & RZ
April 25, 2006
Page 3
EVALUATION OF REQUEST
Compatibility with Surrounding Area The amendment and rezoning appear compatible with
adjacent uses and results in the most suitable residential category in relation to the airport noise
experienced in the area.
The adjacent property to the east and northeast is developed with apartments and is zoned R-4,
Residential Multiple. Dating back to at least 1980, the zoning designations on this and adjacent
residential properties were inconsistent with their land use designations. The residential
neighborhood was zoned R-1 (Residential Single-family) and R-4 (Residential Multiple), while
the land use designation was Limited Industrial. With the update of the City's Comprehensive
Guide Plan in 2001, at the request of the neighborhood, the City achieved consistency between
the land use and zoning of the residential neighborhood by changing the land use designations to
LD, Low Density Residential and HD, High Density Residential to match the actual use of the
properties.
Site Plan — There is no development proposed with this Amendment and Rezoning; however,
Site Plan review and approval is required prior to development.
Landscaping — To be determined with Site Plan review.
Grading/Storm Drainage, — To be determined with Site Plan review.
Wetlands/Water Quality — To be determined with Site Plan review.
Access/Street Design - The only access to the site is via Silver Bell Road.
Easements/Rights of WU/ Permits — To be determined with Site Plan review.
Tree Preservation — To be determined with Site Plan review.
Parks and Recreation — The ultimate development will be subject to a cash park and trail
dedication based on the rates in effect at that time.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION
The proposed Guide Plan Amendment and Rezoning are in keeping with City Council direction
and will insure that single-entry residential will be developed on the subject site.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED
To recommend approval of a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment from LD to HD for
Outlot A, Kennealy Addition from R-1 to R-4.
To recommend approval of a Rezoning of Outlot A, Kennealy Addition from R-1 to R-4.

RE: Sale of building we own at 3912 and 3914 Cedarvale Drive, Eagan, MN 55122
Dear Mr. Hoenstein:
I met today with Bob Bauer regarding the potential sale of the office building I own in the
Cedarvale area to the city. Mr. Bauer informed me that if I wish to make an offer to sell to the
city I should send you a letter with the appraisal of our property. Accordingly, enclosed herewith
please find a copy of an appraisal we had done in June 2003.
As you can see, this appraisal came in at a value at $235,000.00. We believe it is reasonable to
add 5% compound interest to the value of the building since June of 2003. By my calculations,
the value of this building in June 2006 would be $272,041.88. I hereby offer to sell 3912 and
3914 Cedarvale Drive to the city of Eagan for that price.
As a condition of the sale, I would ask the city to lease the property back to me for the amount of
$1.00 for a period of one (1) year from the date of closing to allow me time to find a place to
relocate. I would continue to pay utilities. The city would cover any typical owner expenses such
as common area expenses.
Also, as a condition to this offer to sell, I would request/select the $20,000.00 lump sum
relocation benefit option. I understand I would receive this payment on the day I vacate the
building as opposed to the day of closing.
If you any questions, comments, or concerns please contact me. .
Very Truly Ygfi6,
P. Nelson

3. CEDAR GROVE REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT — AUTHORIZE STAFF
TO SECURE OPTIONS ON POSSIBLE RELOCATION SITES FOR
CEDARVALE MALL TENANTS
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To authorize staff to secure options for possible
relocation sites for Cedarvale Mall tenants.
FACTS:
• At the time that the City and the developer approved the Cedar Grove
Redevelopment Agreement earlier this year, Schafer Richardson communicated a
preliminary relocation schedule to the Cedarvale Mall tenants anticipating
acquisition of the mall by the City by mid year. As the City and Schafer
Richardson have been finalizing details associated with the acquisition of the
Cedarvale Mall under the Cedar Grove Redevelopment agreement, that timeline
has been delayed, but some mall tenants have identified possible receiver
locations for their relocation.
• The City cannot declare the businesses eligible for relocation or provide them
relocation benefits until a later stage of the mall acquisition. The business owners
have asked. the City to take steps to assist in retaining the sites to permit them to
relocate and retain their eligibility for relocation assistance when the process
reaches that point.
• While the City cannot pay relocation assistance out of sequence, the City's TIF
attorney has confirmed that it would be an eligible expense for the City to secure
options on properties, if they are deemed to be suitable relocation sites that may
be occupied when relocation eligibility occurs. At its meeting on April 18, the
Finance Committee was briefed on the situation and recommended that the staff
be authorized to work with the businesses and prospective property owners to take
options to preserve receiver sites.
• Staff has held preliminary discussions with Silver Bell Center, which is a
prospective receiver for Cedarvale Barbers, Mike's Shoe Repair, Cedarvale
Tailors and potentially one other Cedarvale business, and Kraus Anderson, which
has made an offer of space for Community Drug and Alcohol Services. If
authorized by the City Council, staff would proceed to finalize option or bridging
agreements with those property owners for a period of up to three months to
preserve the sites.

SUBJECT: REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT ACTIVITY UPDATE
The following update reflects activity in the City's redevelopment districts.
General Redevelopment
• Impact of Eminent Domain Legislation on Redevelopment Districts — The Senate -House
Conference Committee continues to meet regarding the eminent domain legislation.
Negotiations are expected this week on key provisions including the transition language related
to existing districts. The House negotiators are supporting Rep. Abrams language that permits
existing districts to use eminent domain to assemble remaining properties. Staff will continue to
monitor to see whether that position prevails versus the Senate language that was more
restrictive. At the Council's direction, staff continues to communicate with members of the
Legislature and our lobbying organizations on the desired outcomes from the conference
discussions.
• Cedar Grove Redevelopment District
• First Phase Development Plans — Staff and the developer continue to meet to coordinate the
submittal and review of the first phase development applications. The developer and staff are
continuing their meetings with the APrC to discuss the overall approach to the parks and
recreation needs of the area.
• Silver Bell Center Remodeling and Redevelopment — The owners of Silver Bell Center, next
to McDonalds, have indicated that they will not be pursuing the partial redevelopment of the site,
but will be proceeding with the refacing and remodeling of the shopping center itself to meet the
CGD standards. A number of Cedar Grove businesses are interested in relocating to Silver Bell.
• Acquisition and Relocation Plans — The purchase of the Eagle Valley Bank property and a
request for authorization to acquire the Lyndon Nelson property is on the EDA Agenda for May
2. The Minsk Market acquisition is expected to come back to the City Council on May 16.
Negotiations continue with the owners Ellingson and Associates and Steve Martin for
acquisition of those properties. Several other property owners are actively seeking new sites for
their businesses.
• Communications Activities — The Cedar Grove Gateway, the monthly newsletter update, is
being distributed to businesses in the area. Website updates also continue.
Northeast Ear—an Redevelopment District
• Grand Oaks Development — The first office building is occupied and stores arebeginning to
occupy the retail strip. Construction is nearing completion on the Eagle Valley Bank.
Construction on the next Grand Oaks office building is expected to begin this spring.
• McGough Office Project — The developer has submitted revised offers to the four remaining
• property owners in the northeast Eagan/McGough area. Roger Reiling has commissioned a
seller's appraisal and has submitted it to McGough. McGough representatives have offered
139
4 I 6.1
mediation as a means of resolving the differences between the offers and the seller's
appraisal. 0
Hwy 55 Parcels — DART Transit, the owner of a substantial number of the properties in the
portion of the District south of Hwy 55 has indicated an intention to prepare a
development/redevelopment plan for that part of the district. DART representatives met with
staff on April 5 to discuss their progress in this regard. Further work remains to be done and
DART will keep the City updated on their discussions with other property owners.
Southeast Eagan Masterplan
• Revestor's development plan for Red Pine Crossings was approved by the City Council on
April 4 and the APC has passed a resolution finding the proposed renewal and renovation
district for the area to be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and zoning of the property.
The City Council has scheduled a public hearing for June 6 for the possible creation of the

ORGANIZATIONAL BUSINESS
A. Advisory Commission Appointments — Since the City learned of the resignation of APC
member Ted Gladhill, enclosed are replacement pages for pages 68 and 69 of your packet. The
revised pages reflect the change in the number of vacancies on the APC. As .a reminder, please
use this modified list of vacancies as you prepare for the appointment process Tuesday evening:
Assistant to the City Administrator Miller and Director of Administrative Services VanOverbeke
will again coordinate the distribution and official count of the ballots. In keeping with the
Council's past practice, the process will begin with voting on all of the 3 -year terms available,
followed by 2 -year terms, 1 -year terms, etc.
Asa reminder, there are five (5) applicants for the WMO and there are four openings. While the
WMO is not an official advisory commission of the City, it is proposed that the same
appointment process be used for the WMO as is being used for the four advisory commissions.
In keeping with past practice, after and while the City Council is voting, if it is the desire of the
Council to move on to the next agenda item, and then periodically update the vote to keep the
meeting proceeding ahead, this is certainly is an acceptable process.

Subject: Ted Gladhill's APC Resignation
Regrettably, I must submit my resignation from Eagan's Advisory Planning Commission effective immediately,
and from the Signage Task Force following this Tuesday's meeting.
Contrary to rumors, I am not resigning because of differences of opinion on the urban blight of electronic reader
boards (read tongue-in-cheek)I Rather it is simply my inability to continue to dedicate the time required to fulfill
the responsibilities of the position.
Some of you are aware that I recently made a major career change — leaving my 20 -year corporate career with
NCR Corporation in pursuit of my own business ventures. I am expanding Gadgetman — a custom home audio
and video company dedicated to helping clients derive more enjoyment from their homes by designing and
installing high quality whole -house sound and video systems and/or home theater systems — from a "spare -time"
vocation of the past few years to a more serious pursuit. I also joined forces with a 35 -year veteran in a
Manufacturer's Rep firm offering home and auto electronics to Custom installers and Distributors in the Midwest.
The demands of expanding my small business (currently an Eagan home-based business) into a viable full-time
career, combined with my wife, Anne's career expansion into full-time Management at her employer, plus the
"normal" demands of a family with 3 and 6 -year-old children have begun to exceed my current capacity. For the
last few months, I have tried to still apportion the time needed to be an effective Commissioner, but I simply can
no longer balance the demands of these multiple roles and feel I must concentrate on my family and my
businesses until the workload becomes a bit more manageable.
I care deeply about the direction the City of Eagan takes and 1 feel honored to have played a role. I have been a
resident of Eagan for 15 years and have no plans to leave in the foreseeable future. Through my participation on
the City's Commissions for the past decade, I have endeavored to provide useful insight and thought-provoking
feedback representative of many of our citizens to enable the Council to make more informed decisions.
The City's staff is the finest I have ever had the pleasure of working with and have always been prepared with any
needed assistance. Our City Council members clearly show their individual passion for the betterment of this
City. My fellow Commission members have proven their dedication to helping this community and have earned
my respect for their professionalism. I am privileged to have worked closely with all of you and I have enjoyed my
tenure on the Commissions.
I hope to again seek Commission appointment when my schedule becomes less demanding. Of course, I also
hope that when that time comes, the City Council and staff will once again extend their welcome and consider me
for appointment.
If you have any questions (or would like to add or upgrade a whole -house audio, video or home theater system),
please contact me. I would be happy to assist in the transition to the new Commission members by attending a
workshop or pre -meeting,

H. PROJECT 938 NICOLS ROAD PIN OAK DRIVE TO CLIFF ROAD
SIDEWALK IIyIPROVEMENTS
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: Receive the Draft Feasibility. Report for Project 938 (Nicols
Road, Pin Oak Drive to Cliff Road — Sidewalk Improvements) and schedule a public hearing to be
held on June 6, 2006.
FACTS:
• On September 6, 2005, City staff received a petition containing 17 signatures representing 11.
properties along Nicols Road, requesting sidewalk improvements, along the east boulevard of
Nicols Road from Pin Oak Drive to Cliff Road.
• After reviewing the petition, staff requested that the petitioners collect signatures from additional
property owners along the east side of Nicols Road who would be impacted by the construction of
a sidewalk. The requested information was received from the petitioner on September 28, 2005.
• On October 18, 2005, the City Council received the petition and authorized the preparation of a
feasibility report by the City Engineer for Project 938 (Nicols Road, Pin Oak Drive to Cliff Road).
• A draft of this Feasibility Report has been prepared and is being presented to the Council for their
consideration of scheduling a public hearing for Tuesday, June 6, 2006.
• Nicols Road, from Pin Oak Drive to Cliff Road, is designated a minor collector roadway in the
City's Comprehensive Guide Plan. According to the City's Special Assessment Policy, the City's
Major Street Fund pays all costs associated with the installation of sidewalk adjacent to minor
collector roadways with no special assessments.
• An informational neighborhood meeting will be held with the adjacent property owners prior to a
public hearing to review and discuss the proposed improvements.
ISSUES:
• The proposed sidewalk was initially anticipated to be constructed on the east side of Nicols Road.
Letters were sent to adjacent property owners on the east side seeking their comments on this
potential sidewalk location. After identifying the impacts of the proposed construction and
discussions with impacted property owners, it was determined that an analysis of the impacts of
constructing the sidewalk on the west side of Nicols Road should be performed. Letters were sent
to adjacent property owners on the west side of Nicols Road as well as those individuals who
signed the original petition seeking their comments on this revised location of the proposed
sidewalk. Feedback was then received from impacted property owners on the west side of Nicols
Road. The resultant recommendation is to construct a segment of the sidewalk on the east side of
Nicols Road (from Pin Oak Drive to Nancy Circle) and a segment of the sidewalk on the west
side of Nicols Road (from Nancy Circle to Cliff Road) to reduce the impacts to adjacent
properties and provide better crossing opportunities for pedestrians and bicyclists using the
proposed sidewalk..
• On December 13, 2004, the City Council approved the Community Transportation Trail System
Policy for staff implementation. The policy states that proposed trail segments should be
evaluated with its criteria to ensure the utmost safety and practicality for the citizens of Eagan
while bearing in mind proper fiscal responsibility. The policy also states that its guidelines should
be used as a general method to rank all future trail segments to be constructed as public
improvements. In reviewing the proposed trail segment, the trailpolicy evaluation indicated a
medium to, high ranking. The requested segment of sidewalk is not included in the City's
Transportation Trail System.

• responsible for regional planning
The Metropolitan Council is
including aviation, highway, and transit systems as well as transit operations. The
Council is the designated Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the Twin
Cities metropolitan area, and is required by the federal government to provide a
continuing, coordinated, comprehensive transportation planning process.
• Federal law and regulation require that, every metropolitan area over 50,000
population must have a continuing, coordinated and comprehensive transportation
planning process in order to receive any federal transportation funds.
• The Metropolitan Land Planning Act requires that "within three years following the
receipt of the metropolitan system statement, every local governmental unit shall have
prepared a comprehensive plan" and "shall have submitted the plan to the

J. COMPREHENSIVE SANITARY SEWER & WATER PLANS

Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer Plan and Water Supply and Distribution Plan by
Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik and Associates in accordance with the Metropolitan Land
Planning Act and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to. execute all related documents.
FACTS:
The Metropolitan Council is responsible for planning of the regional water supply for
the seven -county metropolitan region. It is also responsible for the operation and
maintenance of eight wastewater treatment plants in the Twin Cities, which treats
most of the wastewater from the seven -county metro region.
Under the Metropolitan Land Planning Act, local communities must prepare and
submit to the Metropolitan Council local comprehensive plans that are consistent with
the Council's regional system plans. The new or updated local comp plans will be due
in 2008.
The Metropolitan Land Planning Act requires that "within three years following the
receipt of the metropolitan system statement, every local governmental unit shall have
prepared a comprehensive plan" and "shall have submitted the plan to the
Metropolitan Council for review".
• The City of Eagan has been developing since the late 1950s. To accommodate this
growth, an extensive sanitary sewer and water infrastructure system was constructed
over the years based on various related sanitary sewer and water system plans. The
most recent Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer plan update occurred in 2000, while the
current Water Supply and Distribution Plan was last updated in 1996.
With 99% of our city's sanitary sewer system installed, the total cost of the
preparation of this final amendment to our Sanitary Sewer Plan will be $15,000. The
fee would be charged to the Trunk Sanitary Sewer Utility Fund. The update of the
Water Supply and Distribution Plan will include much more detail and computer
modeling analysis and accordingly will have a higher cost of $43,000. This fee
would be charged to the Trunk Water Utility Fund.
• We anticipate that these will be the last major updates per

Comprehensive Plans based on the degree of development that currently exists.
• The City received the metropolitan system statement September 12, 2005, and has
until September 12, 2008 to update its plan, including sanitary sewer and water
supply & distribution plan elements. Therefore, it would be appropriate for the
Council to authorize preparation of these elements of the comprehensive plan at this
time in order to meet this schedule;

K. PEDESTRIAN COUNTDOWN INDICATIONS
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: Authorize the installation of Pedestrian Countdown
Indicators on the traffic signal at the intersection of Trunk Highway 13 and Silver Bell
Road.
FACTS:
• Some pedestrians do not understand the international pedestrian crossing symbols at
traffic signals and therefore cannot make informed judgments about adequate time
available to cross a signalized intersection. The countdown pedestrian indication
(CPI) provides pedestrians with additiona1 information, specifically a descending
numerical countdown of the flashing hand clearance interval, which indicates to the
pedestrian the remaining time available for their safe crossing and is intended to be
intuitively understood. With this additional information, the pedestrian can make
better decisions about their crossing time and speed.
• The Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) completed a study of CPI's
to determine whether the new pedestrian indication was understood by pedestrians.
The results of the study determined that the additional information provided by CPI's
was intuitively understood and used successfully by pedestrians.
• A more extensive study of CPI's was conducted in San Francisco, CA and found that
CPI's were associated with a decrease in pedestrian injuries and fewer pedestrians
finishing their crossing maneuver on red.
• Both studies found minimal maintenance impacts from the installation of CPI's.
• Mn/DOT Electrical Services Section (ESS) will furnish and install the CPI's, with a
total estimated cost of $2,300. This cost will split evenly between Mn/DOT and the
City of Eagan, with each agency contributing $1,150 for the CPI's. The City's
portion of the cost would be paid from the Traffic Signal Maintenance fund..

L. WETLANDS. EXEMPTION - UTILITY PIPELINE UPGRADE
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: Approve the exemption of wetland activity within
Public Right -of -Way for the purpose of utility pipe replacement and authorize the Water
Resources Coordinator to execute all related documents.
FACTS:
• Xcel Energy has applied for a Certificate of No -Loss or Exemption in accordance
with the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) to allow work on an existing
26" gas pipeline in the public right-of-way along Highway 13.
• The pipeline currently supplies' natural gas to St. Paul at a pressure of 350 psi for
domestic/household purposes. As part of the conversion of the currently coal fired
High Bridge Generating Plant to gas fired fuel as part of the Metro Emissions
Reduction Project, this existing pipeline will also supply the gas for this plant. In
order to adequately provide for the power plant the pressure will be increased to 690
psi.
• The purpose of the construction activity along Highway 13 is to remove and seal
abandoned farm taps and replace segments of the existing pipe, as needed. The utility
work within the area of the wetland delineation will actually involve directionally

Subject: Application for Certificate of No Loss or Exemption
Xcel Energy is proposing to upgrade 9.5 miles of an existing 26 inch gas pipeline
by increasing the pressure In the line from 350 psig to 690 psig in order to supply
gas to our High Bridge Generating Plant in St. Paul, Minnesota. This pipeline
has been in its current location sin, ce 1952.
The High Bridge Plant is being changed from coal fired to natural gas find as
part of the Metropolitan Emissions Reduction Program (MERP). Consequently,
Xcel Energy has a need to upgrade this gas line to provide additional fuel for this
plant.
The increase in pressure in the existing line necessitates removal of abandoned
faun taps and replacement of some sections of the pipeline. Construction
methods for the pipeline project include trench and fill and directional bore.
Included are maps showing the project area and Plan and Profile sheets showing
project elevations and wetland areas. (Figures 1 to 44) There are no DNR
protected waters located within the project area (Figure 45). National Wetland
inventory maps are included in Figures 46 to 50. Only one Wetland area is
identified on the NWI maps (Figure 49). This area is a MN Department of
Transportation (DOT) recharge pond which will be directional bored under. The
DOT has been contacted regarding this pond and has no issues with Xcel
Energy boring under it.
This project should be exempt as per Exemption Standards in MN Rules
8420.0122 Subp 6 B and E.
An Application for Certification. of No Loss or Exemption is included with this
letter. All BMPs will be implemented and maintained during construction in and
around the pipeline area.

Agenda Information Memo
May 2, 2006, Eagan City Council Meeting
N.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
To authorize the submission of a letter supporting the implementation of the First Phase development of
the Cedar Grove West Transit Station.
FACTS:
The City of Eagan has established a vision for the Cedar Grove Redevelopment Area as a transit
oriented and pedestrian oriented development, including plans for a full service transit station to
be a part of the implementation of the development.
A The City has also worked closely with MVTA, Dakota County and other cities to promote and
pursue implementation of the Cedar Avenue BRT project. In particular, the City has cooperated
with the MVTA in a consultant study to refine the concept for short and long term development
of the transit station. The preliminary results of that project were reported to the MVTA Board at
its meeting of April 26, 2006.
➢ The study conclusion is that the most feasible alternative is to develop a transit station at the west
end of the Cedar Grove Redevelopment Area in excess right of way lying between Cedar Avenue
and Nicola Road. In the first phase, the station would consist of 140 surface parking stalls and a.
station/waiting area on Nicols Road. In the second phase, a BRT platform would be .constructed
in the median between. the north and southbound lanes of Cedar Avenue, the parking would be
expanded to over 200 stalls and a pedestrian bridge would be built between the parking area and
the new BRT platform.
Decisions regarding future funding of construction of the phases will be made by the MVTA and
the Cedar Corridor Transit Group. If MnDOT approves the study conclusions and concludes that
the proposed construction can be accomplished while leaving sufficient right of way for fiture
Cedar Avenue needs, it is possible that the property necessary to implement the first phase transit
station could be transferred from MnDOT to the appropriate recipient (MVTA, Dakota County or
Met Council) in the near term and that construction of the first phase transit station could be
programmed within the next year or two.
While the formal process by which those decisions would be sequenced is not yet determined,
staff is requesting Council consideration of authorization of the submission of comments to
MVTA, Dakota County, Met Council and any other appropriate agency encouraging decision
makers in those agencies to allocate funds and program improvements to have the first phase of
the transit station in place at the earliest practical time, both to solidify transit opportunities for
current and new Cedar Grove residents in the near term and to begin investment in improvements
that will facilitate the full BRT station's construction, when it is practical and feasible.

Dear Beverly and Dan:
In follow up to the Minnesota Valley Transit Authority Board action. of April, 26, 2006 approving
the amended Scope of Work for TKDA relative to its planning study of the Cedar Grove West
Transit Station, the Eagan City Council took action at its meeting of May 2, 2006 to support the
implementation of the development of the first phase of the Cedar Grove Transit Station at the
location identified in the TKDA study. The City understands .that substantial work remains to
facilitate the transfer of the property from MNDOT to the appropriate agency, to complete detailed
MUNICIPAL CENTER
engineering and design and to incorporate the project into a construction schedule and the
Council strongly encourages the appropriate bodies and agencies take the steps necessary to
3830 Pilot Knob Road
accomplish those steps as expeditiously as possible.
Eagan, MN 551 22-1 81 0
651.675.5000 phone
With progress that has been made on the west location of the transit station, the City is stepping
back from its earlier support for a transit station in the east part of Cedar Grove and would ask
651675 5012 fax
that Dakota County and the Cedar Avenue BRT Group consider reallocating funds that are
651.454.8535 TDD
earmarked in the budget for construction of an east station to the early implementation of the
west station's first phase.
The City very much appreciates the hard work and cooperation that its partners have applied in
MAINTENANCE FAmLm
this effort and look forward to our continued cooperation in bringing about the short and long-term
3501 Coachman Point
transit improvements in the Cedar Grove area.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST
CASE: 10 -VA -07-04-06
HEARING DATE: May 2, 2006
APPLICATION DATE: April 11, 2006
PREPARED BY: Erik Slettedahl
The applicant is requesting approval of a Variance of 14 feet from the required 20 -foot parking
setback from Pilot Knob Road for property located at Lot 1, Block 1, Marice Addition in the SW
'/a of Section 10 to expand the existing parking area.
AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW

approve with conditions or deny a request for a variance. In considering all requests for a
variance, City Council shall consider the following factors:
a. Exceptional or extraordinary circumstances apply to the property which do not apply
generally to other properties in the same zone or vicinity, and result from lot size or
shape, topography, or other circumstances over which the owners of property have no
control.
b. The literal interpretation of the provisions of this Code would deprive the applicant
property use commonly enjoyed by other properties in the same district under the
provisions of this Code.
c. That special conditions or circumstances. do not result from actions of the applicant.
Planning Report -Granite City Food and Brewery Variance Request
May 2, 2006
Page 2 of 4
d. That granting of the variance will not confer on the applicant any special privilege that is
denied by this Ordinance to owners of other lands, structures or buildings in the same
district.
e. The variance requested is the minimum variance which would alleviate the hardship.
f. The variance would not be materially detrimental to the purposes of this Code or to
property in the same zone.
CGDE REQUIREMENTS
City Code Section 11.70, Subd. 8, requires a 20 -foot parking surface setback from all public
rights-of-way.
City Code Section 11.70, Subd. 5, requires at least one (1) parking space for each three (3) seats
based on capacity design.
BACKGROUNDMISTORY
The subject site was originally constructed in 1998 as a Sidney's restaurant and was operated as
such until 2005 when the property underwent an extensive remodel and conversion to a Granite
City Food and Brewery. The remodel was limited mainly to interior improvements with some
exterior material changes. The basic footprint and parking lot configuration did not change.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
The subject site currently contains a
7,700 square foot full service
restaurant/bar with a capacity of 251 and
a parking area of 84 spaces. The existing
parking area is currently setback 20 feet
from the Pilot Knob Road right-of-way.
There is a distance of 60 feet from the
traveled edge of Pilot Knob Road and the
subject property line. A 6 -foot high berm
is located between the curb edge of Pilot
Knob Road and existing parking area.
The property owner also has a cross
parking agreement with adjacent property
owners for additional parking.

April 2005 -site pre -conversion
Planning Report -Granite City Food and Brewery Variance Request
May 2, 2006
Page 3 of 4
EVALUATION OF REQUEST
Granite City is proposing a parking lot reconfiguration and expansion that would add total of 31
new spaces to the site. The proposed plan would remove the large planting island in the parking
area north of the building and realign the drive aisle in a north -south direction. In order to
accommodate an appropriate drive aisle width, the parking area would need to expand 9 feet into
the required 20 -foot parking setback at this location. Also, 20 additional stalls are proposed at
the west side of the building parallel to Pilot Knob Road. In order to accommodate an
appropriate drive aisle width and parking stall size, the construction of these stalls would require
an encroachment of 14 feet inside the required 20 -foot parking setback. This area will also
encroach into the 10 -foot drainage and utility easement. Although the city typically allows
parking lots located within these easements, the applicant should show proof that no utilities are
located in this area.
The proposed parking lot plan will require removal of some existing landscape material in the
north parking lot and along Pilot Knob Road. The applicant has submitted a revised landscape
plan, that shows the addition of 7 new overstory trees and extensive use of various low growing
shrubs and perennials within the new planting islands. Also, the plan provides adequate
screening of the west 200 feet of parking area along Pilot Knob with the addition of extensive
new plant material in this location, inside the property line.
It appears that the relatively large distance between the subject property line and the traveled curb
edge of Pilot Knob Road, and additional landscaping will minimize the visual impact of the
requested encroachment.
APPLICANT'S ESTIMATE OF HARDSHIP
The applicant would like to. provide additional parking to meet the demand of their new business.
The applicant has stated that the existing parking spaces do not provide enough parking due to
the success of their restaurant, causing patrons to use the ,city street, drive aisles, and fire lanes.
The applicant believes that the additional parking will help alleviate these problems and provide
better access to the site and adjacent properties for emergency vehicles.
The applicant has also stated that the business will remain open during the construction period
and all site work will be coordinated with the City of Eagan and Dakota County, implementing
proper erosion control measures.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION
Granite City Food and Brewery is requesting a maximum 14 -foot encroachment into the required
20 -foot parking lot setback from Pilot Knob Road to expand their parking lot. The applicant has
stated that the amount of existing parking spaces is inadequate to accommodate the demand at
Planning Report -Granite City Food and Brewery Variance Request

the subject site for better access for their patrons and emergency vehicles. The size of the
existing site is limited; however, the underutilized portion of right-of-way in this location is
relatively large, minimizing the visual impact from Pilot Knob Road.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED
To approve (OR direct findings of fact for denial) a Variance of 14 feet from the required 20 -
foot parking setback from Pilot Knob Road for property located at Lot 1, Block 1, Marice
Addition. If approved, the following conditions should apply:
1. If within one year after approval, the variance shall not have been completed or utilized, it
shall become null and void unless a petition for extension has been granted by the
council. Such extension shall be requested in writing at least 30 days before expiration
and shall state facts showing a good faith attempt to complete or utilize the use permitted
in the variance.
2.',, Prior to commencing grading and construction activities, the applicant shall show that no
utilities are being impacted within the easement encroachment area along Pilot Knob
Road. If utilities are impacted, the applicant shall move utilities at their own expense, if
required.
3. The applicant shall replace and improve landscaping on the subject site in accordance
with the submitted landscape plan dated April 11, 2006.
4. The applicant shall be responsible for obtaining any permits necessary from Dakota
County and coordinating all site work with the City and County.

Request for Variance
Granite City Food and Brewery
3330 Pilot Knob Road
St. Louis Park, MN
To whom it may concern,
Granite City Food and Brewery (GCFB) requests a variance for parking setback for the above listed property. There is no request to
modify any zoning classification.
The Comprehensive Guide Plan designation is included in the special area with mixed use.
The Zoning classification is unlimited business.
The existing land use is for a restaurant which is an approved use for the site.
GCFB intends to complete site construction drawings in April 2006 and start minor grading and new parking lot construction as soon as
possible and allowed in May 2006. GCFB will remain open during site work and will coordinate work with City of Eagan and Dakota
County. All site preparation work will be completed with erosion control measures implemented.
The request for variance is based on the need for additional parking to provide ample public parking for a successful restaurant
business. The existing 84 parking spaces do not provide the necessary amount of parking needed for a successful restaurant like GCFB.
There is a cross parking easement with other adjacent properties though this is still exceeded at this time. The revised parking plan will
maximize the amount of parking spaces by adding 31 new parking spaces but requires adjustment of the parking setback along Pilot
Knob Road to be 6 feet and 11 feet in lieu of 20 feet. This will provide 116 parking spaces on the GCFB property.
The request for variance is required because there are site issues created by the limited parking. Patrons are parking on the side roads
and along the driveway entrance, dumpster areas and fire lanes. This is a safety issue for emergency vehicle access and service for the
site and adjacent properties. The revised parking lot and additional parking will help remove these issues.
Existing site conditions drawing is attached per survey completed by MFRA. There is little grade modifications that needs to occur to
accomplish the new parking areas as indicated in the plan drawing. The revised parking lot will require new landscaping as shown in the
attached drawing.
Thank you for your consideration of this variance request. Additional questions can be answered by Steve Kalkman at SJA Architects or
Mark Anderson at MFRA.
Sincerely,

Regular City Council Meeting
VI. ORGANIZATIONAL BUSINESS
A. Advisory Commission Appointments
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
Appoint members to the City Council's Advisory Commission, with terms beginning in May
2006
Appoint members to the Gun Club Watershed Management Organization, with terms beginning
in May 2006
FACTS:
• Per the Council's direction, Advisory Commissions appointments are made in April or early May
of each year.
• Advertising for the Commission vacancies takes place year-round, with an emphasis in
recruitment from January — March.
• There were 29 applicants this year. Of those 29 applicants, 25 were able to attend their
scheduled interview with the City Council on April 24 and April 25.
• The City Council will be asked to vote via ballots to fill the vacancies for the various lengths of
Commission terms — 3 years, 2 years, 1 year and 1 year alternate terms.
• Per the Council's Guidelines for Commission Appointment Policy, in the event of a stalemate
after three rounds of voting on a specific Commission appointment, the Mayor shall have the
authority to make the appointment of the specific term that resulted in the stalemate.
• The new Commissioners appointed tonight will be invited to participate in a new commission
member orientation on Tuesday, May 9 at 6:00 p.m. Orientation packets will also be provided to
new Commissioners. The orientation is an opportunity for the Commissioners to learn about the
role of the advisory commissioners, and it is also a chance for the new members to meet with
their commission's staff liaison for more detailed information about the workings of their
specific commission.
• Included on the consent agenda was the resignation of two APC members. Therefore, two
additional vacancies are now available on the APC which will be noted on your ballots.
• There are 4 openings for the Gun Club Lake Watershed Management Organization. It has been
past practice that applicants for the WMO have not been interviewed but appointments are made
at the same time as the advisory commissions. There are 5 applicants requesting appointment to
the WMO.
• The City Council has copies of all the applications, including the WMO, which were included in
the binder that was distributed prior to the applicant's interviews.
• Rather than duplicating all of the applications, the Council is asked to bring their binders to
the May 2 City Council meeting
ATTACHMENTS:
• Enclosed on page is a summary of the number of openings that exist on each advisory
commission.
• Enclosed on page D __ is a REVISED summary of applicants' commission preferences based on
the preferences voiced during the interviews.

Agenda Information Memo
May 2, 2006, Eagan City Council Meeting
A. PROJECT 934, CLIFF ROADBLACKHAWK ROAD/GALAXIE AVENUE
INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS .
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: Receive feasibility report and authorize the
preparation of detailed plans and specifications for a contract that may be let within 2
years after said approval and the acquisition of right-of-way and easements through
quick -take Eminent Domain, if necessary.
FACTS:
• The reconfiguration of the intersection of Cliff Road (County State Aid Highway 32)
and Blackhawk Road/Galaxie Avenue with associated- traffic signal improvements
has been programmed for 2006 in the City's and Dakota County's 5 -Year Capital
Improvement Programs.
• On June 7, 2005, the City Council authorized the preparation of a feasibility report
identifying the scope, cost, financing and schedule of the proposed improvements to
this intersection.
• The intersection currently includes a left -turn lane and a shared through/right-turn
lane for Blackhawk Road and Galaxie Avenue. The traffic signal has permissive left
turns (No arrows) for Blackhawk Road/Galaxie Avenue. The intersection operates at
an overall acceptable level of service during peak hour conditions. However, Galaxie
Avenue experiences heavy delays during the morning peak hour. In addition, both
Blackhawk Road and Galaxie Avenue operate poorly during the evening peak. The
poor operations are due to the high number of left -turns from Blackhawk
Road/Galaxie Avenue onto Cliff Road.
• A review of the crash data for 2005 indicates 12 reported crashes at the intersection.
This intersection crash rate is 0.90 crashes per million vehicle miles and has a
severity rate of 2.75 crashes per million vehicle miles. The MnDOT average crash
and severity rate for similar high volume/high speed intersections in the Metro area is
0.80 and 1.60, respectively.
• This proposed improvement will widen the intersection to provide an additional lane
on Galaxie Ave and. Blackhawk Rd creating separate left turn, straight through and
right turn lanes. Temporary construction easements will be necessary from some
adjacent property owners. Since the proposed intersection reconfiguration benefits the
traveling community as a whole as an operational and safety improvement, no
assessments are proposed. Subsequently, no formal public hearings are required. In
March 2006, advanced notices of this pending capital improvement were sent to all
affected property owners.
• An agreement between the City of Eagan. and the Dakota County Transportation
Department is being prepared providing for the cost, maintenance, and operation of
the proposed improvements. TheCity's financial share of these improvements is
estimated to be about $289,300. ''he County will be sharing 50% of the construction,
`�l
engineering, and inspection costs for the signal modifications and median and
pedestrian ramp improvements. The Estimated Total Construction Cost is $401,600.

To approve (or direct Findings of Fact for Denial) a Planned Development Amendment to
allow a change to tenant signage on the north side of the inline retail building located at 1565
Cliff Road in the SW'/4 of Section 28 subject to the conditions listed in the draft APC Minutes.
REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: Majority of members present
FACTS:
➢ The subject 5.8 acre Lot 1, Block 1, Thomas Lake Center, is fully developed with a 43,000
SF in-line retail building. The retail center was constructed in 1987.
➢ The applicant is proposing to replace the out -dated pylon sign and is proposing improvements
to the side north of the building will both add aesthetic value to the site and area. In addition,
the applicant is requesting approval of outdoorstorage for up to ten passenger vehicles or
light duty trucks in parking stalls located on the north side of the building.
➢ The APC discussed the value of the reinvestment the applicant is proposing for the property
and the way in which it can update the center and integrate it better with Lifetime Fitness to
the north. The Commission noted that certain aspects of the application lacked the level of
detail to permit it to clearly define what would be permitted under the PD amendment being
requested and, in the action, asked the developer to address those issues in advance of the
City Council meeting.
➢ The Advisory Planning Commission held a public hearing on April 25, 2006 and the
commission is recommending approval of the modification of the pylon sign and outdoor
storage/parking, subject to conditions. The Commission recommended denial of the fagade
and signing modifications for the reasons noted in the Issues section below and detailed in the
Commission minutes.
ISSUES:
➢ The APC added conditions to specify the outdoor storage and requested that the applicant
provide additional "detail regarding site/building improvements on the north side of the site
before the, City Council meeting. Revised plans were received on Thursday, April 27, 2006.
➢ While the APC recommended approving the PD amendment for the pylon sign, it was with
the condition that the sign would not exceed its current height and area. The applicant
indicated that the height would remain the same, but he has been asked to confirm the extent
to which the proposed sign can conform to the area requirement or whether he is asking for
the new sign to exceed the current sign area.
➢ In recommending denial of the fagade improvements on the north side of the building and the
north side signage modifications, the APC indicated that the intent of the north side upgrades
is positive, if sufficient detail can be provided showing a site plan and building elevation with
material specifications, to permit the City to confirm the exact nature of the improvements
being requested.
➢ The developer has indicated that the pylon sign, outdoor storage and north side fagade
modifications are the priorities and that the north side signage issue can be addressed in the
future. Because of the agency deadline, the applicant will either need to withdraw that part of
the PD amendment application or consent to an extension of the 60 day deadline. Otherwise,
the Council will need to take action to approve or deny that aspect of the application.
➢ Staff has discussed with the developer the need to show in the detailed site plan, how the
outdoor storage/parking would be screened from the north by landscaping or other means.

CASE: 28 -PA -05-03-06
HEARING DATE: April 25, 2006
APPLICATION DATE: March 15, 2006
REQUEST: Planned Development Amendments PREPARED BY: Michael J. Ridley, AICP
LOCATION: 1565 Cliff Road
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: RC, Retail Commercial
ZONING: PD, Planned Development
SUMMARY OF REQUEST,
The applicant is requesting approval of Planned Development Amendments to allow overnight
parking (outdoor storage), replacement of the pylon sign, changes to the appearance &
accessibility on the north side of the center and a change to tenant signage on the north side of
the in-line retail building located on Lot 1, Block 1, Thomas Lake Center at 1565 Cliff Road in
the SW '/4 of Section 28.
AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW
Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subdivision 5 states, in part,
1. The provisions of this chapter maybe amended by the majority vote of the council, except
that amendments changing the boundaries of any district or changing the regulations of any
district may only be made by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of all members of the council.
2. The Council shall not rezone any land in any zoning district or make any other proposed
amendment to this chapter without first having referred it to the planning commission for its
consideration and recommendation.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
The in-line, retail center was constructed in 1987. The six lot Thomas Lake Center subdivision also
includes parcels that developed subsequent to the neighborhood center. These other lots presently
host the following land uses: Lifetime Fitness overflow parking, a quick -lube, convenience gas,
automobile service and a Class I restaurant.
Planning Report — Thomas Lake Center PD Amendment
April 25, 2006
Page 2
The subject 5.8 acre Lot 1, Block 1, Thomas Lake Center, is fully developed with a 43,000 SF in-
line retail building.
SURROUNDING USES
The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the
subject property:
EVALUATION OF REQUEST
The proposed upgrades represent further investment by Har -Mar, Inc. in Eagan and the 20 year
old Thomas Lake Center. Each facet of the request is evaluated below:
Outdoor Storage
The issue of outdoor storage arose in relation to an existing daycare operation at the center that
has two vans that are used to tote the daycare kids to various activities. The vans remain on-site
during non -business hours. By ordinance, anything stored outside overnight is considered
outdoor storage and, as such, requires a CUP — or in this case, a PD Amendment.
The applicant has submitted a Site Plan that highlights 22 of the 34 parking stalls on the north
side of the building as overnight parking. The applicant states "At this time, only the daycare has
requested to park one or two vehicles in this area overnight. This is not intended for storage
vehicles, only overnight convenience parking for specifically pre -approved tenants. Approval to
park overnight is given only on a tenant -by -tenant basis and only by Slawik Properties"
This approval scenario is contrary to the typical Advisory Planning Commission (APC) and City
Council review/requirement of specifying not only the location but also the type and number of
items to be stored.
Pylon Sign
The.applicant is proposing to replace the existing, outdated, pylon sign. The proposed 27' tall
replacement pylon sign will have a programmable, double -sided, reader board along with fixed
tenant identification panels. The reader board is proposed to have a single color LED display

that will display time/temperature and a message area that could be programmed to change the
message twice a day.
The Sign Ordinance states "No signs are allowed which contain moving sections or intermittent
or flashing lights, except for intermittent display of time and temperature." However, the
proposed limited message changing can be accommodated via the PD Amendment. City Policy
makers shall determine the appropriateness of this Sign Ordinance deviation.
Appearance & Accessibility Improvements
The applicant is proposing to improve the appearance of the center from Thomas Lake Drive by
adding landscaping and planters to lessen the "one-sided center" appearance. The owner is also
reviewing the possibility of adding accessible storefronts to the north side or an enclosed access
from the north side to the south (front) side of the building.
It appears the proposed improvements will enhance the appearance of the center from Thomas
Lake Drive and, subsequently, Lifetime Fitness.
Modification of Tenant Building Signage
According to the applicant, some tenants have expressed a desire to change the present type of
signage on the north side of the building facing Lifetime Fitness. Presently, the signage on the
building is compliant with the Sign Ordinance requirement for a consistent style and type of
signage. The front or south side tenant signage contains all back -lit, channel letters and tenant
signage on the north side of the building is all non -lit, "cut out" lettering.

Staff has reservations with only a partial or piecemeal change -out of signage on the north side. If
the sign changeover on the north side is not complete and uniform, the end result will appear
inconsistent and haphazard. City Policy makers shall determine the appropriateness of this Sign
Ordinance deviation.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION
The applicant's proposed improvements to the property represent a desired reinvestment in the
property and Eagan. Specifically, replacing the out -dated pylon sign and the proposed
improvements to the site north of the building will add aesthetic value to the site and area.
The lack of definition regarding the outdoor storage is inconsistent with previously approved
outdoor storage requests and the partial change -out of tenant signage on the north side of the
building present an unknown moving forward. The APC and City Council will need to
determine the suitability of these components of the proposed amendments.
The conditions of approval listed below require specificity of the outdoor storage and that any
change to tenant signage on'the north side of the building will be uniform and complete.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED
To recommend approval of a Planned Development Amendment to allow overnight parking
(outdoor storage) on the north side of the in-line retail building located at 1565 Cliff Road in the
SW i/4 of Section 28. If approved the following conditions shall apply:
1. The developer shall execute and record the Planned Development Amendment
Agreement at Dakota County within 60 days of City Council approval.
2, The developer shall provide information specifying the exact number, type and tenant -
owner of all vehicles to be stored outdoors overnight.
To recommend approval of a Planned Development Amendment to allow the replacement of
the pylon sign for the in-line retail building located at 1565.Cliff Road in the SW '/4 of Section
28. If approved the following conditions shall apply:
1. The developer shall execute and record the Planned Development Amendment
Agreement at Dakota County within 60 days of City Council approval.
2. The developer shall obtain a Sign Permit prior to removal/replacement of the pylon sign.
3. The LED copy or message shall change no more than two times in any 24 hour period,
this does not pertain to time/temperature.

In response to your application review comments regarding Slawik Properties Planning
Amendment Application, we have prepared the following:
Site Plan:
Existing parking lot standards were highlighted, responding to one of the line items on
the- application form and play no part in our application, other than to identify the security
lighting locations on the north side of the building in the area of proposed overnight
parking.
Overnight Parking:
We have highlighted the 22 spaces on the north side of the building as, the proposed area
for any pre -approved tenant overnight parking. At this time, only the daycare center has
requested to park 1 or 2 vehicles in this area overnight. This not intended for storage
vehicles, only overnight convenience parking for specifically pre -approved tenants.
In the application, we indicated that this approval to park overnight is given only on a.
tenant -by -tenant basis and only by Slawik Properties.
Architecture Planning Interior Design cfc�
Ifl
Pylon Sign:
We are aware of the signage ordinance regarding display signs and intend that the sign
text will change a maximum of twice per day, with the exception of the time and
temperature.
North Appearance / Accessibility:
Proposed changes to the north side of the building will not encroach on the required 24'
drive aisle.
At this time, no tenants have requested public access to the north side of their spaces.
North Tenant Signage:
We understand the City Code relating to uniformity in signage. As this plan develops,
uniformity in signage will be part of the design and tenant emphasis.

Lexington Ridge located at 1149 Diffley Road in the NE 1/a of Section 27 subject to the
conditions listed in the staff report.
REQUIRED VOTE FOR APPROVAL: Majority of members present
FACTS:

would add two additional stalls, not one as the applicant indicated. Also, the addition would
result in to high of a percentage of accessory structure size relative to the dwelling unit size.
➢ The APC also indicated that this development was marginal to begin with, thus the need for
the Planned Development, and adding additional square footage is not appropriate.
➢ The proposed garage addition does not add balance to the development or the area.

report dated April 4, 2M. She noted the background and history.
Chair Heyl opened the public hearing.
There being no public comment, Chair Heyl closed the public hearing and turned the discussion
back to the Commission.
Chair Hey[ asked if there is a possibility for another three car garage request. Community
Development Director Jon Hohenstein responded another request for a three car garage would
be unlikely due to the setbacks between the other units and the topography by the end units,
however nothing prevents the developer from asking for future PD amendments.
Paul Danielson, Engineer, stated this is the only lot that would accommodate a three car garage
due to the layout of the property. He discussed aspects of this unit that have made it difficult to
market and stated the tree line will remain the same.
Member Gladhill stated the proposal is comparable to two additional garage stalls, with
dimensions of 19.7'x 21'.
Chair Heyl stated the total garage square footage seems high. She stated the development
was crowded as originally presented and an 800 square foot garage on a 2,000 square foot
townhome is excessive.
Member Dugan stated concern that over 1/3 of the home is going to b"arage space.
Member Hansen stated he agrees that the area is crowded.
Member Bendt stated asking for a third garage stall is misleafg bed !&@ it is actually asking
for a third and fourth garage stall.

garage for currently platted Lot 16, Block 1, Lexington Ridge due to the following reasons:
1,. The proposal will result in four garage stalls instead of three total stalls as noted in the
application.
2. The percentage of the footprint that would be taken up by the accessory portion of the
structure is too great for the townhome.
3. The property was marginal in terms of density of development to begin with, thus the
need for the Planned Development, adding additional square footage is not appropriate.

Written Narrative for
Lexington Ridge Development
The developer is proposing to amend the planned development to include the
construction of a garage addition to Lot 16, Block 1 of Lexington Ridge. This lot is the
first lot as you enter the development on the south side of the street. To date, all of the 16
unit town homes have been constructed with the sale on 5 units currently completed.
This amendment to the planned development will result in an additional drive access to
the currently constructed private street.- This garage addition will provide symmetry to
the development in that the unit across the street will be matched from the east setback
line. Lot 16 is one of the more difficult lots to market and this will provide an
opportunity to provide an amenity to this unit that will make it intriguing to the buyer and
another unique unit within this urban village setting: `
This amendment will not have a detrimental affect on. the swrounding property or land
uses. This amendment simply provides another mix of housing type in this area. Just
like some buyers like a 3 or 4 bedroom home, other buyers would prefer a 3 -stall to a 2 -
stall garage. There is no impact to public infrastructure and will have no impact to the
surrounding properties outside this s6cluded development
The architecture will match the existing town homes and will incorporate similar building
materials and style. We believe this will simply add diversity to the building construction
and will supplement the unique architectural character in this environment.
The timing of construction is to complete the addition once the necessary approvals from
the City have been granted.
The developer is committed to allowing this to be the only building modification within
this development.

To: APC
Subject: Lexington Ridge
I had an issue this evening that kept 'me from being on time to the Planning commission meeting. l arrived just in
time to hear the vote. I was deeply distressed over the fact that I think I could have answered questions that may
have shed a different light on the subject. I didn't intend that Paul Danielson (who coincidently helped me with
the original planning of LR but was at the meeting for the Oak Hills presentation) would present to you but he
tried to give you some information. He wasn't expected have all the facts but given he was there, he tried to
help. I don't know what to do at this point and I don't know the protocol on the matter given it was voted.
down. I would like to at least make an effort to explain my reasoning.
1. Although the buyer of this unit would like an additional stall for their garage, the idea of the garage was in
process prior to their purchase and their purchase of the unit is not dependent on the additional garage.
This proposal is NOT because of a potential buyer (although it would certainly be a bonus to them). I am
not asking to have this garage approved for economic reasons.
2. 1 am asking for the ability to build an additional garage for reasons which you mentioned. First, it would
bring continuity to the development. The single stall garage would be built to the setback line. (This would
allow for one additional stall, not two as was assumed.) The line of the garage would not make this
development more crowded but 1 think rather it would be more consistent with the unit across the street;
both sides of the street would start at the setback line.
3. It would give privacy to the street and sidewalk in addition to the backyard of lot 16 (just like all; the
remaining units in the development).
4. The development needs storage of utilities for the association's electric and water meters. The utilities were
planned to be located in the area of the proposed garage. If the garage was approved they could, be hidden
from public, view and safely placed behind the garage.
5. There were comments tonight that the development was already more crowded than it should. My
perspective is that the density of LR that was approved is close to what could have been designed with the
original R-1 zoning. We only have 16 units in 6 acres. We designed LR as a small community in the midst of
parks. In fact we designed the units together in order to donate over 1/3- of the land back to the City as a
Conservation easement.
6,. Not that public agreement should be the reason to approve or deny this request, I think it is worth noting
that 11 of the 16 units are sold and 100% of the home owners approve of this request for all the reasons
stated above.
These are just some of my thoughts on why I asked for approval. If any of you have thoughts on this I would
appreciate your comments.

SUMMARY OF REQUEST
PREPARED BY: Michael J. Ridley, AICP
The City is initiating a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment from LD — Low Density to
HD — High Density and a Rezoning of a 1.29 acre site from R-1, Single Family to R-4,
Residential Multiple. This request stems from the APC and Council's consideration of a
subdivision request made by the property owner last spring.
AUTHORITY FOR REVIEW
Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment:
The city's Comprehensive Guide Plan was prepared pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Section
473.864. As defined by statute, the Land Use Plan is a guide and may be amended from time to
time as conditions change. The city's Guide Plan is to be implemented by official controls such
as zoning and other fiscal devices. The creation* ofland use districts and zoning is a formulation
of public policy and a legislative act. As such, the classification of land uses must reasonably
relate to promoting the public health, safety, morals and general welfare. When a change to a
city's Comprehensive Guide Plan is requested, it is the city's responsibility to determine if the
change is in the best long-range interests of the city. The standard of review of a city's action in
approving or denying a Comprehensive Guide Plan amendment is whether there exists a rational
basis. A rational basis standard has been described to mean having legally sufficient reasons
supportable by the facts which promote the general health, safety and welfare of the city.

Planning Report — Kennealy CGA & RZ
April 25, 2006
Rezoning:
City Code Chapter 11, Section 11.50, Subd. 5 states in part,
1. The provisions of this chapter may be amended by the majority -vote of the council,
except that amendments changing the regulations of any district may only be made by an
affirmative vote of two-thirds of all members of the council.
2. The City Council shall not rezone any land or area in any zoning district or make any
other proposed amendment to the zoning ordinance without first having referred it to the
planning commission for its consideration and recommendation.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
The City Council approved a two -lot Preliminary Subdivision of the two acre property in April
2005. At that time, staff opined that adding. additional single family detached homes to the
Wuthering Heights area would be inconsistent with the impact of aircraft noise generated by the
new north/south runway at MSP.
The following quote is an excerpt from the 2005 Kennealy Preliminary Subdivision report:
"Because of its location in the noise zone and its adjacency to existing R-4 property, it maybe
appropriate for the eastern portion of this property to be developed as apartments rather than as
single-family homes. This would provide an extension of the existing multiple residential
development on property to the east, and create new development that is compatible. with existing
and anticipated development in the area and with the airport noise exposure."
Subsequently, on April 19, 2005, the City Council took an action to direct staff to initiate a
rezoning from R-1 to R-4 for the newly created (out)lot after the Final Subdivision was approved
and recorded.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
The subject 1.29 acre outlot is vacant; however, the property that was subdivided contains a
single family home that was constructed in 1958.
SURROUNDING USES
The following existing uses, zoning, and comprehensive guide plan designations surround the
subject property:
North- Single family residential zoned R-1 and Guided LD, Low Density.
South - Tesseract School; zoned CGD and Guided Special Area.
East - Apartment building; zoned R-4 and Guided HD, High Density.
West - Single family residential zoned R-1 and Guided LD, Low Density.

Planning Report — Kennealy CGA & RZ
April 25, 2006
Page 3
EVALUATION OF REQUEST
Compatibility with Surrounding Area The amendment and rezoning appear compatible with
adjacent uses and results in the most suitable residential category in relation to the airport noise
experienced in the area.
The adjacent property to the east and northeast is developed with apartments and is zoned R-4,
Residential Multiple. Dating back to at least 1980, the zoning designations on this and adjacent
residential properties were inconsistent with their land use designations. The residential
neighborhood was zoned R-1 (Residential Single-family) and R-4 (Residential Multiple), while
the land use designation was Limited Industrial. With the update of the City's Comprehensive
Guide Plan in 2001, at the request of the neighborhood, the City achieved consistency between
the land use and zoning of the residential neighborhood by changing the land use designations to
LD, Low Density Residential and HD, High Density Residential to match the actual use of the
properties.
Site Plan — There is no development proposed with this Amendment and Rezoning; however,
Site Plan review and approval is required prior to development.
Landscaping — To be determined with Site Plan review.
Grading/Storm Drainage, — To be determined with Site Plan review.
Wetlands/Water Quality — To be determined with Site Plan review.
Access/Street Design - The only access to the site is via Silver Bell Road.
Easements/Rights of WU/ Permits — To be determined with Site Plan review.
Tree Preservation — To be determined with Site Plan review.
Parks and Recreation — The ultimate development will be subject to a cash park and trail
dedication based on the rates in effect at that time.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION
The proposed Guide Plan Amendment and Rezoning are in keeping with City Council direction
and will insure that single-entry residential will be developed on the subject site.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED
To recommend approval of a Comprehensive Guide Plan Amendment from LD to HD for
Outlot A, Kennealy Addition from R-1 to R-4.
To recommend approval of a Rezoning of Outlot A, Kennealy Addition from R-1 to R-4.

RE: Sale of building we own at 3912 and 3914 Cedarvale Drive, Eagan, MN 55122
Dear Mr. Hoenstein:
I met today with Bob Bauer regarding the potential sale of the office building I own in the
Cedarvale area to the city. Mr. Bauer informed me that if I wish to make an offer to sell to the
city I should send you a letter with the appraisal of our property. Accordingly, enclosed herewith
please find a copy of an appraisal we had done in June 2003.
As you can see, this appraisal came in at a value at $235,000.00. We believe it is reasonable to
add 5% compound interest to the value of the building since June of 2003. By my calculations,
the value of this building in June 2006 would be $272,041.88. I hereby offer to sell 3912 and
3914 Cedarvale Drive to the city of Eagan for that price.
As a condition of the sale, I would ask the city to lease the property back to me for the amount of
$1.00 for a period of one (1) year from the date of closing to allow me time to find a place to
relocate. I would continue to pay utilities. The city would cover any typical owner expenses such
as common area expenses.
Also, as a condition to this offer to sell, I would request/select the $20,000.00 lump sum
relocation benefit option. I understand I would receive this payment on the day I vacate the
building as opposed to the day of closing.
If you any questions, comments, or concerns please contact me. .
Very Truly Ygfi6,
P. Nelson

Eagan Economic Development Authority Meeting

3. CEDAR GROVE REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT — AUTHORIZE STAFF
TO SECURE OPTIONS ON POSSIBLE RELOCATION SITES FOR
CEDARVALE MALL TENANTS
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED: To authorize staff to secure options for possible
relocation sites for Cedarvale Mall tenants.
FACTS:
• At the time that the City and the developer approved the Cedar Grove
Redevelopment Agreement earlier this year, Schafer Richardson communicated a
preliminary relocation schedule to the Cedarvale Mall tenants anticipating
acquisition of the mall by the City by mid year. As the City and Schafer
Richardson have been finalizing details associated with the acquisition of the
Cedarvale Mall under the Cedar Grove Redevelopment agreement, that timeline
has been delayed, but some mall tenants have identified possible receiver
locations for their relocation.
• The City cannot declare the businesses eligible for relocation or provide them
relocation benefits until a later stage of the mall acquisition. The business owners
have asked. the City to take steps to assist in retaining the sites to permit them to
relocate and retain their eligibility for relocation assistance when the process
reaches that point.
• While the City cannot pay relocation assistance out of sequence, the City's TIF
attorney has confirmed that it would be an eligible expense for the City to secure
options on properties, if they are deemed to be suitable relocation sites that may
be occupied when relocation eligibility occurs. At its meeting on April 18, the
Finance Committee was briefed on the situation and recommended that the staff
be authorized to work with the businesses and prospective property owners to take
options to preserve receiver sites.
• Staff has held preliminary discussions with Silver Bell Center, which is a
prospective receiver for Cedarvale Barbers, Mike's Shoe Repair, Cedarvale
Tailors and potentially one other Cedarvale business, and Kraus Anderson, which
has made an offer of space for Community Drug and Alcohol Services. If
authorized by the City Council, staff would proceed to finalize option or bridging
agreements with those property owners for a period of up to three months to
preserve the sites.

SUBJECT: REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT ACTIVITY UPDATE
The following update reflects activity in the City's redevelopment districts.
General Redevelopment
• Impact of Eminent Domain Legislation on Redevelopment Districts — The Senate -House
Conference Committee continues to meet regarding the eminent domain legislation.
Negotiations are expected this week on key provisions including the transition language related
to existing districts. The House negotiators are supporting Rep. Abrams language that permits
existing districts to use eminent domain to assemble remaining properties. Staff will continue to
monitor to see whether that position prevails versus the Senate language that was more
restrictive. At the Council's direction, staff continues to communicate with members of the
Legislature and our lobbying organizations on the desired outcomes from the conference
discussions.
• Cedar Grove Redevelopment District
• First Phase Development Plans — Staff and the developer continue to meet to coordinate the
submittal and review of the first phase development applications. The developer and staff are
continuing their meetings with the APrC to discuss the overall approach to the parks and
recreation needs of the area.
• Silver Bell Center Remodeling and Redevelopment — The owners of Silver Bell Center, next
to McDonalds, have indicated that they will not be pursuing the partial redevelopment of the site,
but will be proceeding with the refacing and remodeling of the shopping center itself to meet the
CGD standards. A number of Cedar Grove businesses are interested in relocating to Silver Bell.
• Acquisition and Relocation Plans — The purchase of the Eagle Valley Bank property and a
request for authorization to acquire the Lyndon Nelson property is on the EDA Agenda for May
2. The Minsk Market acquisition is expected to come back to the City Council on May 16.
Negotiations continue with the owners Ellingson and Associates and Steve Martin for
acquisition of those properties. Several other property owners are actively seeking new sites for
their businesses.
• Communications Activities — The Cedar Grove Gateway, the monthly newsletter update, is
being distributed to businesses in the area. Website updates also continue.
Northeast Ear—an Redevelopment District
• Grand Oaks Development — The first office building is occupied and stores arebeginning to
occupy the retail strip. Construction is nearing completion on the Eagle Valley Bank.
Construction on the next Grand Oaks office building is expected to begin this spring.
• McGough Office Project — The developer has submitted revised offers to the four remaining
• property owners in the northeast Eagan/McGough area. Roger Reiling has commissioned a

appraisal. 0
Hwy 55 Parcels — DART Transit, the owner of a substantial number of the properties in the
portion of the District south of Hwy 55 has indicated an intention to prepare a
development/redevelopment plan for that part of the district. DART representatives met with
staff on April 5 to discuss their progress in this regard. Further work remains to be done and
DART will keep the City updated on their discussions with other property owners.
Southeast Eagan Masterplan
• Revestor's development plan for Red Pine Crossings was approved by the City Council on
April 4 and the APC has passed a resolution finding the proposed renewal and renovation

ORGANIZATIONAL BUSINESS
A. Advisory Commission Appointments — Since the City learned of the resignation of APC
member Ted Gladhill, enclosed are replacement pages for pages 68 and 69 of your packet. The
revised pages reflect the change in the number of vacancies on the APC. As .a reminder, please
use this modified list of vacancies as you prepare for the appointment process Tuesday evening:
Assistant to the City Administrator Miller and Director of Administrative Services VanOverbeke
will again coordinate the distribution and official count of the ballots. In keeping with the
Council's past practice, the process will begin with voting on all of the 3 -year terms available,
followed by 2 -year terms, 1 -year terms, etc.
Asa reminder, there are five (5) applicants for the WMO and there are four openings. While the
WMO is not an official advisory commission of the City, it is proposed that the same
appointment process be used for the WMO as is being used for the four advisory commissions.
In keeping with past practice, after and while the City Council is voting, if it is the desire of the
Council to move on to the next agenda item, and then periodically update the vote to keep the
meeting proceeding ahead, this is certainly is an acceptable process.

Subject: Ted Gladhill's APC Resignation
Regrettably, I must submit my resignation from Eagan's Advisory Planning Commission effective immediately,
and from the Signage Task Force following this Tuesday's meeting.
Contrary to rumors, I am not resigning because of differences of opinion on the urban blight of electronic reader
boards (read tongue-in-cheek)I Rather it is simply my inability to continue to dedicate the time required to fulfill
the responsibilities of the position.
Some of you are aware that I recently made a major career change — leaving my 20 -year corporate career with
NCR Corporation in pursuit of my own business ventures. I am expanding Gadgetman — a custom home audio
and video company dedicated to helping clients derive more enjoyment from their homes by designing and
installing high quality whole -house sound and video systems and/or home theater systems — from a "spare -time"
vocation of the past few years to a more serious pursuit. I also joined forces with a 35 -year veteran in a
Manufacturer's Rep firm offering home and auto electronics to Custom installers and Distributors in the Midwest.
The demands of expanding my small business (currently an Eagan home-based business) into a viable full-time
career, combined with my wife, Anne's career expansion into full-time Management at her employer, plus the
"normal" demands of a family with 3 and 6 -year-old children have begun to exceed my current capacity. For the
last few months, I have tried to still apportion the time needed to be an effective Commissioner, but I simply can
no longer balance the demands of these multiple roles and feel I must concentrate on my family and my
businesses until the workload becomes a bit more manageable.
I care deeply about the direction the City of Eagan takes and 1 feel honored to have played a role. I have been a
resident of Eagan for 15 years and have no plans to leave in the foreseeable future. Through my participation on
the City's Commissions for the past decade, I have endeavored to provide useful insight and thought-provoking
feedback representative of many of our citizens to enable the Council to make more informed decisions.
The City's staff is the finest I have ever had the pleasure of working with and have always been prepared with any
needed assistance. Our City Council members clearly show their individual passion for the betterment of this
City. My fellow Commission members have proven their dedication to helping this community and have earned
my respect for their professionalism. I am privileged to have worked closely with all of you and I have enjoyed my
tenure on the Commissions.
I hope to again seek Commission appointment when my schedule becomes less demanding. Of course, I also
hope that when that time comes, the City Council and staff will once again extend their welcome and consider me
