APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF OCTOBER 15, 2001 Dorothy Peterson moved, George Kubik seconded with all members voting in favor to accept the minutes of the October 15, 2001 meeting as presented. VOLUNTEER CITIZEN LAKE MONITORING RECOGNITIONS Water Resources Coordinator Macbeth recognized Rich Kelly and John (Jack) Krech for their five years of service to the Volunteer Citizen Lake Monitoring program. Mr. Krech was recognized for his assistance in monitoring Hay Lake and Mr. Kelly was recognized for his assistance at Blackhawk Lake. Coordinator Macbeth added that the program could not have been as successful as it has been without the valuable assistance of various volunteers. Member Rudolph commented on the good, positive partnership this program has established between residents and the City of Eagan. VISITORS TO BE HEARD REQUEST FOR NATURE CENTER - LAUREN FLORINE Lauren Florine, 4085 Lexington A venue addressed the Commission representing the Save Patrick Eagan Park organization. She explained that the impetus for bringing this issue to the Commission was the study being conducted by the Golf Course Exploratory Committee to potentially incorporate Patrick Eagan Park into a golf course plan. She stated that the park system is critical to residents and this group wants to preserve all of Patrick Eagan Park. It is the group's opinion that a nature park should be a priority in the community and should be explored at some location in the City, preferably Patrick Eagan Park. Florine suggested the use of the Kehne house, currently owned by the city, as a year-round educational facility since the building sits on the edge of Patrick Eagan Park. After reviewing the City's vision statement she pointed to the benefits a nature center could provide the community and asked the Commission's support in evaluating the need for a nature park in the City of Eagan. John Ward, 1634 Murphy Parkway explained he was also a member of the Save Patrick Eagan park group and asked the Commission to take a proactive roll in preserving land. He added that the quality of life drives development in many areas and opined that parks are a critical component. He suggested that Patrick Eagan Park would be the most optimum place for a nature center and that it would bring much to the community. Carolyn Ryan, 4184 Amber Leaf noted that before they moved to Eagan they looked for land adjacent to the Richfield Nature Center but none was available. They were thrilled to have found property adjacent to Patrick Eagan Park. She opined that nature centers reach a wide range of interests and ages and would be a welcomed amenity to residents. Ryan stated she recently visited Woodlake Nature Center and re-discovered what a wonderful place it was. Advisory Parks Commission Minutes of November 19,2001 Meeting Page 2 Member Davis asked those in attendance what, in particular, they would want to see the Commission do next. Lauren Florine asked the Commission to consider exploring sites for a nature center. Given the fact that the Kene house is already city owned, she suggested that this would be a feasible option. She suggested that if a golf course is not feasible on the land that is currently under a moratorium that Lee Anderson's property be considered for inclusion and consideration of a potential nature center. Member Bari suggested referring this issue to the AcquisitionlDevelopment Subcommittee for further discussion. Member Rudolph stated that the Commission would eventually prepare a vision for Patrick Eagan Park but didn't think that a golf course was originally foreseen at this site. He added that the Commission needs to be open minded, listen to information that has been gathered and eventually make a recommendation that is in the best interest of residents. Member Davis opined that it would be helpful for the Commission to learn more about issues being raised. He stated his preference for learning about nature center information simultaneous with golf course information. Davis added that he wants to have a full overview by the time the Golf Course Exploratory Committee information is put together in March. He suggested setting a workshop to hear more details about nature center information that has been compiled to date. Member Kubik stated that he has had more resident contact on the issue of a potential golf course in/near Patrick Eagan Park than any other issue since he has been on the commission. He stated the need to use this gem wisely. Kubik suggested establishing an ad-hoc committee to look at several options for a potential nature center in Eagan. Director Vraa asked what information the Commission would be looking for. Member Davis suggested starting the discussion with all the historical information that has been accumulated to date. Lauren Florine responded that the Save Patrick Eagan Park group has most of the information including a study done by U of M students and would be happy to share it with the Commission. Member Kubik asked who the potential partners would be in this discussion. Member Rudolph suggested starting with a brainstorming session to simply bring ideas to the table. Member Danner suggested that the Save Patrick Eagan Park group bring specific ideas of what they think should be incorporated in a nature center. Lauren Florine expressed the group's appreciation for the Commission's consideration of this issue. She concluded that there are a large number of people who use this park on a casual basis and that a nature center would be a great amenity for the community. An unidentified resident stated that the National Audubon Society is looking to create 1000 nature centers across the country and opined that there may be some partnership opportunities for Eagan. After further discussion, the Advisory Commission ad-hoc committee established a meeting date of December 3, 2001 at 5:30 p.m. The location of the meeting would be determined based on available meeting space. It was noted that Lauren Florine would be the contact for the Save Patrick Eagan Park group. SUPERINTENDENT'S UPDATE AND DEPARTMENT HAPPENINGS Items highlighted by Superintendent of Recreation Asfahl included preschoolers visiting the senior's group and City hall in their Halloween costumes, registrations for winter preschool programs, the successful Halloween Hodgepodge event, registration of winter adult leagues, collaborative effort between Youth Development and the SW YMCA for teen programs, new program development for spring and summer 2002 , planning for 2002 athletic facility use and the upcoming Old Fashioned Holiday at Holz Farm on December 2. Items highlighted by Superintendent of Parks Olson included the grooming of Eagan's cross-country ski trails by Dakota County, continued planning to convert the house in Moonshine Park into a conference/retreat center, and the continued exploration by Dakota County of an off-leash dog area on county owned property. Superintendent Olson also shared photos of new playground installations at Peridot Path Park and Cinnamon Ridge Park, repair work at the Sky Hill Park shelter building and the storm mitigation work that will result in the loss of Woodhaven Park skating rink for the 2001-02 season. CONSENT AGENDA There were no consent agenda items for the Commission to discuss. Advisory Parks Commission Minutes of November 19,2001 Meeting Page 3 DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS SUNSET 13TH ADDITION - MILLERVILLE, INC Director Vraa introduced this item noting that Millerville, Inc. is requesting approval of a Preliminary Subdivision near Trapp Farm Park to create four lots on 2.18 acres located at 785 Golden Meadow Road. The existing house will remain on proposed Lot 4 and Lots 1-3 will be graded with initial site development. Forestry Supervisor Hove noted that the tree inventory submitted had been revised by staff to correctly reflect the City of Eagan Tree Preservation Ordinance definitions. The original inventory showed 96 significant trees on site, however the actual number should have been 70. Hove continued that the development as proposed will result in the removal of seven (7) significant trees (10% of the total). The allowable tree removal for this type of development is 40%, therefore no tree mitigation is necessary. Details of required tree preservation measures were identified. Hove concluded by stating that the developer had done a good job laying the site out to preserve trees. Water Resources Coordinator Macbeth noted that this proposed subdivision is located in the shoreland district of Schwanz Lake. Because this development is small, on-site treatment of stormwater for water quality purposes is not practical and staff recommended a cash dedication in lieu of on-site treatment. Coordinator Macbeth expressed concern for the additional phosphorous that would run into Schwanz Lake and wanted to work with an adjacent landowner to the north of this development to see if there might be a way to mitigate some of the run-off. An idea was to create a stormwater ponding area on an adjacent property, however after several discussions, the homeowner affected has decided not to have a pond placed on their property. Coordinator Macbeth expressed appreciation to the homeowners for discussing the idea but understood why they chose not to have the pond on their property. Macbeth concluded that without the stormwater ponding, two 30-foot stormwater utility easements would be required. One would be placed between Lots 1 and 2 as an outlet and the other between Lots 2 and 3 as an inlet. After brief Commission discussion, Dorothy Peterson moved, N. Mark Filipi seconded with all members voting in favor to make the following recommendations to the City Council relative to the Sunset 13th Addition: 1. The applicant shall submit a revised Tree Preservation Plan indicating the correct placement of tree protection fencing around all trees to be preserved. 2. Tree Protective measures (i.e. orange colored silt fence or 4 foot polyethylene laminate safety netting) shall be installed at the Drip Line or at the perimeter of the Critical Root Zone, whichever is greater, of significant trees/woodlands to be preserved on-site. 3. The applicant shall be required to contact the City Forestry Division and set up a pre-construction site inspection at least five days prior to the issuance of the grading permit to ensure compliance with the approved Tree Preservation Plan and placement of the Tree Protection Fencing. 4. A cash dedication in lieu of on-site water quality ponding shall be required for this development. 5. Two 30-foot stormwater utility easements along lot lines, one easement between Lots 1 and 2 as an outlet and one easement between Lots 2 and 3 as an inlet, shall be required. 6. This proposal will be subject to a cash parks and trails dedication. OLD BUSINESS NON-RESIDENT FEES FOR ATHLETIC FIELD USE Superintendent of Recreation Asfahl introduced this item noting that the APrC had asked the Recreation Subcommittee to consider the issue of non-resident use of Eagan athletic facilities. The subcommittee was challenged to view this topic with an entrepreneurial spirit and bring it back to the Commission at their November meeting. Advisory Parks Commission Minutes of November 19,2001 Meeting Page 4 The Recreation Subcommittee discussed how best to establish an appropriate permit fee for non-residents after reviewing the non-resident use of Eagan facilities along with what other communities are charging. The discussion focused on several considerations; making sure there were no scheduling conflicts with the venue being considered, making sure that required personnel are available, that the fields can sustain the use, and making sure the venue can handle the size and scope of the event being considered. Given those considerations, the subcommittee felt that a reasonable non-resident fee could be double that of a resident fee. It was felt that Eagan residents would appreciate the priority and consideration they were being given for field usage. After having discussed what the financial impact of increasing non-resident fees would be, the subcommittee looked at how the increased revenue could be used. The establishment of a scholarship program fund was determined to be a viable option. The subcommittee discussed allocating a percentage of the non-resident fees towards field maintenance expenses and the balance towards the scholarship fund. Based on non-resident reservations during 2001, the revenue that could be generated from the proposed non-resident fees was identified as $8,235. Approximately 60% would have been allocated to field maintenance and 40% to a scholarship fund if the proposed program were implemented. The subcommittee suggested that the Commission recommend the implementation of expanded non-resident fees for field use and that a percentage of the revenue be used to implement a scholarship fund for recreation programs. Member Kubik asked for more information about how the scholarship program would work. Superintendent Asfahl responded that the same mechanism used to administer the Eagan Foundation/Byerly's Scholarship Fund would be continued. Residents would be asked to make a written request for scholarship assistance, would be responsible for paying a portion of the registration fee and staff would maintain records of scholarship requests and payments. It was emphasized that the integrity and confidentiality of the requestor would be preserved. Member Kubik opined that this would be an excellent proposal to help the community. Member Rudolph noted that the subcommittee felt that this would be a creative way to provide additional opportunities to residents who might not otherwise be able to participate. Member Peterson asked if any portion of the resident fees could be earmarked for the scholarship fund. Superintendent Asfahl responded that the resident fees cover the actual maintenance costs. Member Peterson asked if the scholarship funds could be rolled over from one fiscal year to another. Asfahl responded that more detail would be obtained once the proposal was approved. Member Bari, referencing background information in the packet, asked why some cities don't make their fields available to non-residents at all. Asfahl responded that they don't want to take away from their residents' use. He added that Eagan's fields are highly requested by non-resident groups and if the space is available this might be a good way to benefit both residents and non-residents. Director Vraa cautioned about the total exclusion of non- resident use of fields, particularly if they were built with grant funds. After further brief discussion, John Rudolph moved, David Wright seconded with all members voting in favor to approve the proceeds allocation of non-resident fees for athletic field use (60%/40%) and to approve a recreation scholarship fund as the benefactor of 40% of the fees. CARNELIAN PARK REQUEST FOR VOLLEYBALL Superintendent Asfahl reminded the Commission that this request was brought before them at their October meeting and was referred to the Recreation Subcommittee for further review and recommendation. The subcommittee discussed the request for volleyball standards in Carnelian Park and found it to be reasonable. They cautioned against appearing to accommodate every request but recognized that responding to citizen requests in a reasonable and consistent manner is an important responsibility of the Commission. After discussing the need to monitor the use of volleyball in this park so as not to disrupt other park uses, Dorothy Peterson moved, Terry Davis seconded with all members voting in favor to accept the recommendation to install volleyball standards at Carnelian Park. Advisory Parks Commission Minutes of November 19,2001 Meeting Page 5 NEW BUSINESS 2002 PARKS AND TRAILS DEDICATION FEES Director Vraa introduced this item noting that the Commission annually reviews parks and trails dedication fees for the subsequent year. In the past, the Commission has tied the fees to the value of raw land acquisition. While parks fees are derived from land value, trail fees are tied to the inflating costs of construction materials. Director Vraa pointed to background research provided in the packet showing dedication fees in Eagan from 1995 having fluctuated without noticeable specific trend. He then reviewed several options for the Commission to consider; an increase at the state levy limit inflation rate (3.4%), an increase based on 5% or 10% over the average of a sample of Metro cities, an increase at the average rate of Eagan fees since 1995 for all property types and an increase at the average rate for Eagan fees since 1995 for individual property types. Pointing to the 3.4% increase in park dedication fees, Member Davis asked where this increase would put the City of Eagan in comparison to other communities. Beth Wielde responded that it would place Eagan in the 3rd or 4th place based on the other communities surveyed. Member Peterson asked if the increased material costs for trails was included in the trail fee increase. Director Vraa responded that although there was an increase in oil based products earlier this year that is no longer the case. Cost increase(s) have been considered in proposing fees, he added. Dorothy Peterson moved and Joseph Bari seconded a motion to recommend to the City Council that the 2002 Parks Dedication Option 1 and 2002 Trails Dedication Option 4 be approved as follows: Parks Dedication . Single Family $ 1 550/unit . Duplex $1548/unit . Townhouse/Quad $1406/unit . Apt/Multiple $1415/unit . Commercial $4508/acre . Industrial $3915/acre Trails Dedication Residential Commercial!IndlPublic Facility $183/unit $960/acre Member Davis asked to better understand the net dollar impact for dedication revenue given the various options presented. Director Vraa stated any guess would be pure speculation. He explained that residential fees are collected at the time of final pat and are difficult to predict ahead of time. With commercial/industrial property dollars are not collected until a building permit is pulled. If a commercial plat is approved in 2002, Vraa continued, actual construction might not start for years, making it difficult to predict revenues as well. Member Kubik opined that dedication fees should be at the higher end given the desirability of the community both commercially and residentially. Member Davis agreed stating he would prefer an increase greater than the proposed 3.4% for parks dedication. Member Peterson suggested the 3.4% increase because of the diminished land remaining for development along with the limited inflation on raw land. Director Vraa stated that 3.4% was consistent with the state levy limit inflation rate. He reiterated that the 3.4% increase would keep Eagan in the 3rd or 4th fee position of approximately 16 communities surveyed. Member Davis reiterated that Eagan is an established and desirable community with a sophisticated park system. He opined that a higher parks and trails dedication fee would be appropriate given the quality amenities the community provides. Member Rudolph called the vote. Those voting Aye included Joseph Bari, Margo Danner, N. Mark Filipi, Dorothy Peterson, John Rudolph, Melvin Williams and David Wright. Those voting Nay included Terry Davis and George Kubik. The motion passed. 2002 FEES AND CHARGES Recreation Superintendent Asfahl introduced this item and reminded the Commission that they annually review the fees and charges for the subsequent year and make a recommendation to the City Council for inclusion in the City's overall fee structure. He continued that the fees being proposed capture the direct costs of staffing and maintaining facilities and that the primary change in the fee structure relates to non-resident fees. Advisory Parks Commission Minutes of November 19, 2001 Meeting Page 6 Member Kubik asked if there was a sufficient contingency to cover unexpected costs and repairs. Superintendent Asfahl responded that staff takes that into consideration in making recommendations to the Commission. Member Peterson asked how the $300 damage deposit requirement was working for the schools. Asfahl responded that it was working well. After further brief discussion, Terry Davis moved, John Rudolph seconded with all members voting in favor to recommend to the City Council that the proposed 2002 Fees and Charges presented by staff be approved as presented. WATER RESOURCES UPDATE WATER QUALITY FEE STRUCTURE Director Vraa introduced this item rioting that calculations for water quality fees are based on 22% lot coverage. As the city continues in-fill development the establishment of larger lots has occurred. There has been some discussion that this may be excessive when, for example, a 5 acre lot is split into 2 or 3 large lots, which results in smaller lot coverage. The discussion included a possible cap on fees of lots over Y2 acre, however if the lot is subsequently subdivided, the new lots will be responsible for additional dedication fees. George Kubik moved and John Rudolph seconded a motion to support staffs proposal relative to the change in the water quality fee structure. Member Filipi expressed his concern for supporting/encouraging large lot development because of the concern for affordable housing in Eagan. He opined that if someone wants to acquire a large lot they should be responsible for all the fees involved. Director Vraa explained that there was a concern for treating developments fairly since runoff of large lots is substantially less than smaller lots. Member Bari asked if past developments could ask for a refund. Director Vraa stated that staff will look at what has been developed over the past year but that there have typically not been many large lot developments. Water Resources Coordinator Macbeth added that consideration would be given to how to handle any of the large lot developments since the first of the year. The motion was called. Those voting Aye included John Rudolph, Dorothy Peterson, David Wright, George Kubik, and Melvin Williams. Those voting Nay included N. Mark Filipi, Margo Danner, Joseph Bari and Terry Davis. The motion passed. OTHER BUSINESS AND REPORTS SHADE TREE DISEASE PROGRAM Forestry Supervisor Hove introduced this item noting that the Forestry Division annually updates the Commission on the effectiveness of the Shade Tree Disease Program. Tree Inspector Mike Sowers presented an in- depth presentation describing how Oak Wilt is spread and the various methods of control. He explained that vibratory plowing continues to be an effective way to manage the disease. Macro infusion with Alamo, when used in conjunction with vibratory plowing has shown to be another effective combination for battling Oak Wilt. Sowers also explained that in some circumstances affected trees that are too small to inject can be selectively cut to reduce spore population. Tree Inspector Sowers noted that all oaks that were treated in 2000 did well in 2001. He added that staff went through training to learn how to inject trees with Alamo so that this method could be used more often instead of hiring an independent contractor. This has proven to be a more cost effective method for treating Oak Wilt. Sowers concluded that Eagan's shade tree disease program has been increasingly successful and that there has been a downward trend from 1993. Advisory Parks Commission Minutes of November 19,2001 Meeting Page 7 Member Kubik thanked the Forestry Division for their fine work. He asked if there was a remote sensing device that could be an early warning for Oak Wilt. Sowers responded that he was unaware of that technology at this time. He did suggest that satellite imaging might be more efficient than the aerial photography now used to detect infection centers. Member Kubik suggested the potential of working with the University of Minnesota for partnership opportunities. RECREA TION SUBCOMMITTEE UPDATE Superintendent Asfahl noted that the Commission had already made recommendations for two items discussed by the Recreation Subcommittee; non-resident fees for athletic field use and the request for volleyball at Carnelian Park. The third issue discussed by the subcommittee pertained to the preliminary review of the heat index policy. Asfahl added that more time would be taken to review this issue before bringing it back to the Advisory Commission. ACQUISITIONIDEVELOPMENT SUBCOMMITTEE UPDATE Superintendent Olson explained that the AcquisitionlDevelopment Subcommittee met to discuss several issues. The first was a playground at Central Park. The consensus of the subcommittee was that there is a need for one, or more, playgrounds within the park, however, it is premature to identify a specific site. They felt it would be best to observe the use of the park during 2003 to get a better idea of location. The subcommittee reviewed the option of developing North Park as a large green open space for multiple uses. Parks Planner Lilly shared several options and ideas and soccer participants were present to discuss their needs for the site. Lilly will continue the work effort by providing a cost analysis for the Commission to review at a workshop on December 17. The third item reviewed by the subcommittee included options for a permanent skate park location. The subcommittee suggested asking recreation staff if there might be conflicts with existing programs at any of the 9 identified potential sites. Superintendent Olson then reviewed an analysis of the existing conditions for each of the sites that were ranked using seven separate criteria. Member Kubik asked how large an area would be needed to create a permanent facility. Superintendent Olson responded that it would be a paved area approximately 100' x 100' with a 4' fence around the perimeter and "bike-proof' entrance. The two most identified sites were Rahn Athletic and Lexington Diffley East or West. It was noted that the distance between the proposed skate park pad and existing volleyball court at Rahn Athletic Park was 60' and that the 100' x 100' size would allow for some equipment expansion. Member Filipi asked if any of the sites had a higher percentage of kids that might be able to walk to them. Member Davis opined that it didn't appear to matter where the skate park was located because the users travel to it. Member Wright thought that space should be an important consideration so that little kids aren't "squeezed out" of the space. Superintendent Olson responded that this park in similar to any other new park; it is very busy once it's open but the newness wears off. He stated that the skate park has certainly been more popular than expected. Member Rudolph suggested that staff explore the top two or three parks shown on the matrix and begin work this fall. He felt that staff should have the flexibility to determine which of the top three sites would be most appropriate for this use. After further discussion, John Rudolph moved, Terry Davis seconded with all members voting in favor to have staff review the option of locating a permanent skate park at Rahn Atheltic, Lexington Diffley East or Lexington Diffley West Park. Staff should have the flexibility of selecting the permanent location and identify which site(s) would be best suited for an additional skate park at a later date. Advisory Parks Commission Minutes of November 19,2001 Meeting Page 8 COMMUNITY CENTER UPDATE Director Vraa explained that the building pad is graded and ready. Bids for the Community Center building will be opened on Thursday, December 6 and awarded by the City Council on December 11. The Commission was reminded that the band shell is part of the building package. Vraa added that the City Council has requested research into the development of a commercial sliding hill at Central Park that would include snowmaking equipment, towropes and lighting. Member Bari expressed his concern for the noise that would be generated by an operation of this size. Member Danner asked if there were any cost estimates to date. Director Vraa stated that staff would be working with a consultant to help determine what the construction and operational costs would be. The City Council has identified revenue bonds as the funding source for this potential project, Vraa concluded. GOLF COURSE EXPLORATORY COMMITTEE UPDATE Director Vraa referenced the background information provided in the packet relative to the Golf Course Exploratory Committee. He continued that the Executive Committee met with the City Council and from that meeting it was determined that an RFP would be developed for a consultant to determine the feasibility of placing a golf course on all, some or none of Patrick Eagan Park. The RFPs will be sent to local architects with recent golf course experience. The search for a financial consultant has proven to be more difficult, Vraa continued, but staff will continue to search that out. The City Council has asked that the appraisal, schematic design and schematic feasibility work be completed by mid to late January, 2002. Member Peterson said that the meeting with the City Council was very helpful. She added that for review purposes the Council committed to a golf course 6800 yards or longer. She stated they also would not extend the moratorium that exists on adjacent property and talked about the short time frame for turning this information around. Member Danner added that the City Council is not in favor of condemning the Patrick McCarthy property but might be interested in purchasing it when he is ready. It was also noted that the golf course would need to be self sustaining. Member Rudolph stated that the Commission would need to closely evaluate the use of Patrick Eagan Park. Member Danner asked what input staff has received from the public relative to this issue. Director Vraa stated that people who have responded have typically been opposed to the use of Patrick Eagan Park for a golf course. Member Peterson concluded by stating that it has been quite a challenge to put personal opinions aside while serving on this committee. FERTILIZER STUDY Director Vraa explained that the City Council has asked the Advisory Commission and staff to review the effect of zero phosphorous fertilizer use in the community. Vraa reminded the Commission that they have been instrumental in helping to establish the fertilizer ordinance currently on the books. The Council has asked staff to provide updated information from other communities. ROUNDTABLE Director Vraa noted that the City Council has asked the Advisory Commission to allocate $50,000 in the 2002 CIP for a warming house at Central Park. Member Kubik asked if the e-mail addresses for staff could be included on the back of the Commission Members list. ADJOURNMENT With no further business to conduct John Rudolph moved, George Kubik seconded with all members voting in favor to adjourn the meeting. The meeting was adjourned at 10:05 p.m. --v t"'<' ~-tL, PJLJt;:~/)t'?'" Secretary \ Date //s/~ ~ {
