MINUTES OF A SPECIAL MEETING OF
THE ADVISORY PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION
EAGAN, MINNESOTA
OCTOBER 22, 1987
Those present were Bertz, Thurston, Porter, Sames, Kubik, C ,
Masin, Martin. Also present were the Director of Parks & Recreati-n, a::}z
Vraa, Landscape Architect/Parks Planner, Steve Sullivan and vis tors
concerning the items on the agenda.
CLIFF LAKE GALLERIA TOWERS
Director Vraa gave a brief introductory statement concerning the
proposed Cliff Lake Galleria Towers project, indicating that the Advisory
Commission has already had two meetings reviewing this particular item. He
stated, for members of the audience, that the Advisory Commission's role is to
review the plan for specifics relating to parks, and not to make a
determination on the overall zoning for land use issues.
Mr. Peter Beek invited the Commission to review a rendering -
showing the trail corridor on the site plan. He stated that he would review
the proposed plan, and staff's memo of October 19th; take each item, and
respond to these concerns.
Relative to X61, he reiterated that the traffic impact on Rahn
Park was consistent with the City's plan for having community athletic
facilities on collector streets. Rahn Road is such a collector street, and
therefore Rahn Park should not be severely impacted by any traffic. Mr. Beck
stated that he felt the traffic would be much less than what is now occuring
with several existing community parks.
Item Two; the access road alignment has been reviewed by Tom
Colbert, Public Works Director. He stated that this road access into the park
should not be a problem with the Target access roads.
Mr. Beck said the developer is willing to share in the costs for
adjustments at Rahn Park, if the ballfield backstop fencing needs relocation.
Mr. Martin questioned if there might be fill available for any berming along
the Rahn road on the park side. Mr. Beck responded that grading computations
appear to be balanced, but that a small amount required for the berming should
be made available.
1
In regards to the trailway on Rahn Road, Mr. Beck stated that
there is an existing sidewalk on the west side of Rahn Road which provides
for good transportation. He suggested that there not be a trail on the east
side, so as not to conflict with Target traffic. Mr. Steve O'Gara, of Beaver
Dam Road, stated that there should be a sidewalk on the north side of the
east/west road and that a trailway should be considered on the east side of
Rahn Road to the north of the site. Roger Martin indicated that the City's
Comprehensive Trail Plan does indicate a trail on the east side of Rahn Road,
and the developer would be responsible. Bob Porter said he was in favor of a
trail on the east side, because it is human nature for someone to go to a
corner, cross - then head toward the center. Member Caponi said the
Commission should consider utilizing more of the west side of Rahn for
pedestrians, since safety is of a primary concern. Commission developer and
members of the audience reviewed the trail suggestions that were provided.
Mr. Erkkila, Westwood Planning Engineering, representing the developer,
stated that the City could install a trail within the road right-of-way that
may be already available on Rahn Road, if the City feels it is necessary. .
Beck suggested another alternative, which involved the MinDot property as
extension from Cliff Lake Pond to Cliff Road. It was also noted that an
alternative might be for a trail connection at the intersection of Cliff and
Rahn Road - directly to the interior of the site, provided that the topography
and vegetation could permit such a trail. After extensive discussion, it
appeared there was an agreement that the developer would be willing to provide
for the trailways - the exact determination to be made by staff, after review
of the topography and by contact with MinDot.
Mr. Beck then reviewed paragraph #6, relative to the massing of
trees in the parking lot. He stated that faster growing trees might be
provided in the parking lot with oak clusters around the site, but oaks would
not necessarily be added to the parking lot area. Mr. Caponi questioned the
appearance of the trees in the parking lot, and their protection. Mr.
Erkkila stated that there would be fill with perhaps, a retaining wall -
10X20 or 20X20 in size. He stated that two feet of fill might be provided
given that some sites would have more and some less. Mr. Caponi mentioned
that the trees would look like potted trees, why not leave large massing
instead? Mr. Kubik stated that the idea of clustered trees in a natural
like setting should be preserved. Mr. Sames reiterated that the Commission's
primary concern was for a naturalized planting of shrubs and trees. There was
additional discussion between the Commission and the developer, including the
amount of parking space required. Director Vraa stated that it appeared
the Commission consensus was that they wished to have more green space within
the parking lot, even if it was necessary to reduce the number of parking
stalls to create this additional landscaping island. Members of the
Commission affirmed that this was indeed their direction.
Mr. Beck then reaffirmed that issues #7, 8, and 9 were certainly
agreeable to the developer and that #k10, which provides for a trail connection
to the highline corridor was approved, only the location needed to be
reviewed.
The developer then stated his agreement with conditions #11, 12,
13 and #14. Sandy Masin questioned how much land dedication was responsible
with this development, and why the need for a cash dedication? The Director
responded that the developer had already provided for a partial land
dedication, under the PUD, in that there already was a land shortage as a
result of the dedication of Meadowlands Park, a cash amount would be
necessitated.
2
Mr. Beek stated that another issue with the Advisory Commission
has to do with a section of questions in the EAW concerning the "impairing or
destroying" of the park. He stated that the EAW has been checked "no",
subject to parking lot fencing, berming and landscaping, if necessary at Rahn
Park. After a discussion by the Advisory Commission, the Commission agreed
that this seemed to be an appropriate way to handle the EAW statement. On a
motion by Caponi, seconded by Kubik, it was recommended of the Advisory Parks
& Recreation Commission to forward to the Council the thirteen
statements/conditions by Staff.
Discussion by the motion, led to concern for the length of time
for bonding of the landscaping and ensuring the landscaping plan would be
maintained. The developer indicated his willingness to extend the bonding
deadline, as the project would surely go beyond the two-year time frame. .
Kubik also stated that the motion should contain a section regarding the
sidewalk on the east side, subject to staff review for possible impact on the
trees. Members agreed that an amendment to the motion should also include the
need for coordination with the engineering department for the proposed
extention of Beaver Dam trailway signs. Member Thurston suggested item number
fifteen should include a left-turn only off the access roads onto Rahn to
reduce traffic to the north. This addition was accepted as an amendment to
the motion, and on a call of the motion - all members voted in favor. Sandy
Masin made a motion that she felt the Advisory Commission should go on record
as not being satisfied with a facility of this magnitude, because of it's
impact on the park. Mr. Martin stated he didn't feel this was within the
Commission's role. The motion died for lack of a second to the motion.
HIGH SCHOOL I
Director Vraa introduced the Eagan High School site issue to the
Advisory Commission, introducing Dr. Tom Wilson, Principal on Special
Assignment, and Ted Rozeboom, of Hammel, Green, and Associates, architects on
the project. Mr. Rozeboom reviewed the School District's objective of opening
the facilities in the Fall of 1989, and the need to have a fast track
construction method. Mr. Wilson then reviewed the entire site plan, noting
concerns that the school district has for siting of the building,
preservation of trees, and a need to develop playfield facilities. Chairman
Martin questioned the rectangular ponds, and their value to the site. .
Rozeboom stated that the first problem was an architectural pond next to the
school, and a more natural pond to the north. Mr. Caponi stated students are
influenced by their environment, and that rectangular forms are stressful. He
continued by stating his concern for the humanistic requirements of the site
- and this fast track method may limit the effectiveness of the humanistic
quality for the school. Mr. Rozeboom responded that the phase development
package will allow adequate time for providing for a good school siting. Mr.
Caponi said the field should act as a front yard as a grassy area. There was
additional discussion of the ponding area and it's requirements, and
recognition that the ponds would take on a more natural element. Mr. Porter
questioned if there was adequate parking on the site, noting that Fos,'_ m1s_)unt
High School is very short of adequate parking facilities. Mr. Wilson no,-d
that there would be adequate parking, and should the school expand,
additional parking would be made available - with space that has been
provided. Mr. Wilson noted staff has expressed to the School District
concerns for the siting and location of the football field. He stated the
field would be depressed into the ground and that berming and landscaping
will be provided to help obscure the view. Further, ticket taking, restrooms
and concessions would be internal to the site, reducing the impact to the
3
nearby residents. He also stated that should lighting be provided, this would
be done with a four pole system to reduce the glare element as much as
possible. In response to a question, Dr. Wilson responded that there are five
baseball fields, and two softball. Upon which Mr. Martin questioned, noting
the growth in softball, and soccer, rather than baseball. Mr. Wilson replied
that the district stands ready to revise it's site at such time as those
needs are apparent; but he felt the school district could shift with changing
athletic needs.
In response to questions regarding the site planning, it was noted
that the school district is short of facilities with the original program for
athletic facilities. Dr. Wilson stated that the district hopes to utilize
City facilities at Northview Park, and will be providing facilities for
community use in exhange. Mr. Wilson referrenced the fact that City staff and
the school staff have reviewed draft documents for the construction of tennis
courts at Northview and for the sharing of ballfields. Mr. Vraa indicated
that the Commission would be reviewing these items next.
After additional discussion by the Advisory Commission concerning
the plan, a motion by Porter, seconded by Bertz, will all members voting in
favor, the site plan for the school building was recommended for approval to
the City Council. Mr. Martin indicated that the Commission would be able to
review the details of the site at another meeting.
DRAFT AGREEMENTS - SCHOOL DISTRICT #196
TENNIS CTS AND B IL
Director Vraa reviewed the proposed draft agreements, for tennis
courts at Northview Athletic fields and sharing of ballfields with District
#196, noting that the School Board, as well as City Council would have to
review these items. He stated that while it was not necessary for the
Advisory Commission to approve these documents, that wording or questions
should be raised at this time for additional revision. Chairman Martin
questioned the statement on vandalism, which Dr. Wilson and Director Vraa
responded to. Mr. Caponi questioned the length of the agreement, stating that
the agreement should be changeable if needs warrant, rather than have a
specific timeframe.
In response to a question, Mr. Wilson stated that Director Vraa
had drafted the agreement, and he agreed that the City should construct the
tennis court facilities. He stated that this would save the School District
several thousands of dollars as a result of his contract with H.G.A. After
additional questions and comments, it was the consensus of the Advisory
Commission that the draft agreements were acceptable - recognizing that future
review would be made after the draft is revised.
CC Nl- SURVEY
Director Vraa noted that Mr. Sullivan and he had completed
interviews with perspective firms to complete a survey of the residents of
Eagan for a Community Center. He stated, Decision Resources, Inc. was the
preferred firm based on their recent experience with Inver Grove Heights,
their lower fees and charges, and understanding of the project. All members
stated that they were agreement with Staff's recommendation.
4
BOULDER RIDGE
Steve Sullivan stated that he has reviewed several modifications
required with the Boulder Ridge and Heine Pond development. He stated that
staff is bringing this issue to the Advisory Commission due to their deep
concern for the project as shown earlier. Mr. Sullivan reviewed the changes
that were required by the Department of Natural Resources, as it affected the
normal water elevation and grading limits. Mr. Sullivan then reviewed several
alternatives and their ramifications. Trailways, parking stalls, and grades
were reviewed by the Advisory Commission with specific review of alternative
plans pertaining to the site. Direction was given to the staff to proceed
with these changes and discussions with the developer. Commission adjourned
at 10:10 P.M.

PARKING
During the course of the winter, the single most difficult problem at warming
house sites is coaches and parents of hockey players driving and parking
vehicles as close to the warming house as possible. The resultant costly turf
repairs in the spring are unacceptable. Parking is to occur in the following
locations:
1. Blue Cross/Blue Shield Park - park in the lot.
2. Goat Hill - park in the lot.
3. Quarry Park - park in the lot.
4. Rahn - park in the street/school parking lot.
OUTDOOR ICE PRACTICE TIME
The Parks & Recreation Department and Association ice coordinators will
arrange hours for practice that:
1. Consider the needs of the neighborhoods surrounding rink sites.
2. Meet the needs of the Association.
3. Ensure use of the hours reserved.
4. Skating rinks are also reserved for school events, private parties,
department special events and adult leagues such as broomball. If
additional ice time is required for youth hockey practice, ice
coordinators are to call department staff at least three (3) days in
advance to allow time for proper posting in the warming house.
Coaches are to contact their ice coordinators for ice time within the hours
reserved. Coaches are not to rearrange hours or to request added hours from
the warming house attendant or department staff.
During Christmas vacation difficult situations have been created for warming
house attendants when coaches and teams have arrived to practice during
daytime hours when ice time has not been reserved. Neighborhoods cannot
understand why children are told to leave the ice when they can plainly see
the rink is not posted as "reserved". Attendants will not honor these
requests forraetice. Conscientious attendants are difficult to find; please
do not try to take advantage of them by calling an unscheduled practice.
COACHES RESPONSIBILITIES
Coaches are responsible for the behavior of their players in the warming
house. Undisciplined behavior by hockey players, as well as pleasure skaters,
will not be tolerated.
WARMING HOUSE POLICIES
1. Wind chill - Closing of warming houses will occur at -250 wind chill.
2. Warming houses close at 9:00 P.M.
3. A warming house attendant must be present at all times when a warming
house is used to meet the City's liability requirements.
4. Shovels may be checked out from, and must be returned_to, the attendant.

RE: 1987-88 OUTDOOR SKATING SEASON
The following information regarding rink maintenance, outdoor ice time for
practice and department policies for warming houses is provided to you to
clarify situations that regularly occur during the outdoor skating season.
RINK CLASSIFICATION
All outdoor skating sites in the City of Eagan are classified according to
their historical volume Of use. In addition, the rinks carrying the highest
classification are cleared, broomed and flooded first. Parks suitable for
hockey team practice should have more than one hockey rink and a building
large enough for up to 4 teams at one time.
A RINKS B RINKS C RINKS
Blue Cross/ Carnelian Park Lexington
Blue Shield Park
Goat Hill Park Quarry Park Pilot Knob
Rahn Park Ridgecliff Park Woodhaven Park
Well Site Park
Normal rink maintenance will occur Monday through Saturday. Normal
maintenance means brooming, clearing out "skating snow" and flooding. You
should be aware that at times it is too cold to flood. Skateable ice must
freeze from the bottom up to prevent air pockets.
SNOW MAINTENANCE PRIORITIES
In all snowfall situations, the time of day when the snowfall ends strongly
influences the level of maintenance on that day.
Snow flurries that occur after maintenance has been completed will n -I '-o be
cleared by users.
During a snowfall of as little as 1/4" that creates slippery intersections,
City crews first priority is sanding streets. Some rink surfaces will need to
be cleared by users.
After a 1-2" snowfall, Parks maintenance crews can give ice rinks normal
attention, i.e, sweeping, blowing out snow and flooding. However, crews may
be called upon to plow fire stations, the Municipal Center, the library, etc.
Flooding of rinks may not be possible, but every effort will be made to at
least swee rinks.
After a 3" or more snowfall, considered a snow emergency, Parks maintenance
crews must plow fire stations, the Municipal Center, library and assist with
streets. Skating rinks may not be plowed at all dependent upon the overall
manpower needs for streets maintenance. Efforts will be made to clear the
Class A sites.
The Parks & Recreation De artment will call association ice coordinators if
rinks have not been cleared. Coaches- check with your ice coordinators.

ICE SURFACE MAINTENANCE
A system designed for prescribing specific levels of ice surface maintenance
and operations - at hockey and pleasure rink sites - to achieve desired goals
related to intensity of public use, organized recreation activities, and
safety considerations.
Mode I
High quality skating surfaces managed under a program of intense and varied
ice maintenance activities. Pleasure rinks and ice hockey rinks normally
subjected to consistently high levels of use during the entire skating season.
Weekend use intensive during periods of favorable weather. Cc?rronly
associated with sites offering double hockey rinks, pleasure rink, per, nent
warming shelter, and lighted parking lot. Typically programmed for =d
events including hockey, broomball, skating lessons, and daytime rage.
:Highest maintenance priority given to Mode I sites. Base ice established to a
depth of 4 inches to 6 inches on a priority basis. Snow removal and ice
surface sealing performed six days per week, including Saturdays, during
appropriate temperature regimes. Ice surfaces subjected to routine mechanical
shaving to create a uniformly smooth surface largely free of frost heaves,
cracks, and undulations. Eging of hockey boards performed weekly to maintain
clean edges and square corners. Hockey rinks given first priority for line
striping with full regulation "markings". First sites to receive removal
following storms. Closing date extended consistent with ability to maintain
quality ice surfaces.
Mode II
Maintenance practices geared to achieve good to high quality skating surfaces.
Use levels generally ranging from moderate to intense through a rr,jority of
the skating season. Organized recreation activities typically lexz broad in
scope than Mode I sites; primarily focusing on general pleasure ,r'ng and
pick-up games. Facilities normally include single hockey rink, pleasure
rink, and warming structure, and may include formalized parking. Maintenance
of site given second priority for snow removal and sealing. Base ice
established to 4" to 6" thickness. Snow removal normally conducted six times
per week; sealing five times per week. Ice surfaces shaved on a periodic
basis to obtain a reasonably uniform surface with minimal undulations and
safety hazards. Edging of boards made as required to maintain moderate ice
buildup. Line striping given second priority and includes red, blue, and goal
lines only. Mode II sites normally closed on second weekend in February.
Mode III
Ice surfaces managed through a program of moderate level maintenance
activities. Use levels most often ranging from low to moderate in intensity.
Recreational skating occasionally "busy" during favorable weather. Most often
associated with sites offering single hockey rink and pleasure rink. Warming
structures usually smaller scale and of temporary construction. Mode III
sites not normally programmed for organized recreation programs; most usage
originating from neighborhood park area. Base ice established to a depth of
31' to 511. Snow removal and ice sealing conducted five days per week during
normal maintenance operations. Ice shaving performed periodically to maintain
surface at a level of moderate quality, generally free of prominent frost
heaves and cracks. Edging of boards not normally practiced . No line
striping made on rink surfaces. Snow removal/plowing conducted on a third
priority basis. Rinks typically close first weekend in February.
Mode IV
Ice surface maintained at a moderate quality level. Normally associated with
sites offering single pleasure skating rink only and no warming shelter.
Generally not programmed for recreation events or lessons. Primary usage
originating from neighborhood park service area and comprised mainly of
younger children. Base ice established to a depth of three to five inches.
No base flooding made on pond surfaces. Snow removal and sealing of ice
surfaces made five to three times per week. Ice shaving performed at a
frequency to maintain surface uniformity at a mo'rcately acceptable level.
No edging. Line striping made only for a prograrn:n,:d special event. Mode IV
sites typically close first weekend in February. Note: mode IV sites may
include skating ovals programmed for organized speed skating events. In these
cases ice maintenance is typically performed at a "Mode I" level.
