garding the A-1 alignment of 35E bridging Blackhawk Lake and the
appeal including the motion for rehearing in the Dakota County
District Court and an appeal that has now been perfected to the
Minnesota Supreme Court by Associated Families from the District
Court Order. Parranto moved that the council adopt the resolution,
a copy of which is attached to these minutes, in effect reaffirming
the Council's support of the A-1 alignment and that the City Council
oppose any appeal and opposition to the grant of a permit and in
the event such an appeal is brought, the Eagan City Council autho-
rizes its legal counsel to file a friend of the court brief in
support of the A-1 alignment of I-35E through the City. Murphy

motion to amend the resolution to strike the portion in the resolu-
tion as follows: . . file a friend of the court brief . . .
and substitute, therefore, . . intervene if legally permissible

delays and why he felt the City ought to become a party to the
appeal at the Supreme Court level. Councilmen Parranto, Smith

enough to warrant a change of position of the Council as to its
involvement directly in the action. Those in favor were: Wachter
and Murphy. Those against: Parranto, Egan and Smith. The amend-
ment failed. City Attorney Hauge reviewed with the Council and

a number of interested persons in the audience the status, as he
understood the motions in the District Court and the appeal to
the Supreme Court. He stated that MnDOT appeared specially before
Judge J. Jerome Kluck requesting a bond in the event the motion
for rehearing is granted but that MnDOT was uncertain as to whether
it would intervene, file a brief or ask for oral arguments at the
Supreme Court. He further stated that the Supreme Court rules
are somewhat uncertain as to whether the City of Eagan or any other
party not formally a party at the District Court level could inter-
vene at the Supreme Court level. This had been confirmed by McClay
Hyde, Eagan Special Counsel on the I-35E matter, and whether it
is still possible to intervene at the District Court level because
a decision had not been made as to the motion for rehearing. There
was discussion concerning whether the City Attorney should prepare
a friend of the court brief and it was suggested it be a summary
brief including the position of Eagan as to the bridge permit and
the A-1 alignment. There was discussion regarding whether there
was confusion as to the October 2, 1979, motion and both Mayor
Murphy and Mr. Wachter indicated that they favored the portion
of that resolution dealing with the Council's position in favor
of the A-1 alignment but opposed the portion of the resolution
regarding the two design alternates. Mr. John Kline appeared as
did representatives of Associated Families. Those in favor of
the motion: Murphy, Wachter, Smith, Egan and Parranto. Against:
None.

rested parties of Mendota Heights and Eagan at Pilot Knob Elementary

he met with representatives of Timberline Association since the

line as well as the North property line on Lone Oak Road. He also
stated that a meeting had been held with the Dakota County Engineer
and the report from Tom Colbert was submitted dated October 11th

providing emergency vehicle access from the present gravel main-
tenance road on the South line along the Univac property. There
was also discussion concerning density and Mr. Prokasky said that
the developer had no change in density but that the developers
and owners would guarantee that the density requirements of the
current City ordinance would be complied with in the development,
both for townhouse and multi-family development. There was exten-
sive discussion concerning access to the City Park and also access
to the Lone Oak Heights plat on the Univac Road. It appeared that
it would be an extension of Four Oaks Road from the West and Mr.
Smith stated that it appeared to be the logical location for that
extension to Pilot Knob Road. It was suggested that Univac be
approached for the acquisition of necessary easements with a con-
nection across from Towerview Road. Wachter moved and Murphy se-
conded the motion to approve the preliminary plat and plan as sub-
mitted subject to the grant of a 30 foot right of way on the South
of the plat; further subject to all APC recommendations and that
all units will be adjusted to provide that the development will
comply with the density requirements of the City. Mr. Prokasky
said that density will be decreased to account for all public ease-
ments and there was also discussion concerning the gas line. Smith
moved to amend the motion to provide for plans for construction
of the road on the South with the further understanding that Lone
Oak Heights Addition will be assessed for improvement benefits
for those road improvements and that the road extend to the Park
to the West; further, that the staff negotiate with Univac for
the additional half right of way with the understanding, however,
that the road be installed on the Lone Oak Heights portion of the
right of way if additional right of way is not acquired. Parranto
seconded the amendment. Those in favor were: Parranto, Smith
Murphy and Egan. Those against: Wachter. Those in favor of the
main motion as amended: Murphy, Parranto, Smith, Egan and Wachter.
Against: None.
