03/02/1989 - Advisory Parks & Recreation CommissionMEMORANDUM
TO: ADVISORY PARKS & RECREATION COMMISSION
FROM: KEN VRAA, DIRECTOR OF PARKS & RECREATION
DATE: FEBRUARY 27, 1989
RE: MARCH 2ND ADVISORY COMMISSION MEETING
Following the call to order, presentation of a plaque with our thanks to
former Commission members, Bob Porter and Jo Anne Alt, will be in order.
Both former members have been contacted and asked to be present so that
Commission and staff can extend their appreciation for their service to the
Commission.
A second presentation will be a plaque to the Department of Natural
Resources. The plaque is in appreciation and thanks for their previous
CORE grants to the department, which have provided both aeration and
fishing piers for the department.
It would then be in order for the Advisory Commission to: approve the
agenda, the minutes of the regular meeting of February 2nd, and the special
meeting of February 16th, 1989, concerning Autumn Ridge.
There are two items on the consent agenda for the Advisory Commission, and
three development proposals. Staff has prepared a separate memorandum on
the consent agenda items and each of the development proposals. The
Planning Commission information on these items are contained in the later
pages of this packet.
The first item under "Development Proposals" is the Coventry Pass proposal
by Frontier Companies. This item was reviewed by the Advisory Commission
previously for parks dedication. Members will recall that the preferred
park site was then discovered to have been a previous dump site. Braun
Engineering has done some soil testing. Staff has prepared a memorandum
which discusses this testing and the alternatives to the Advisory
Commission.
This preliminary plat will be appearing on the Planning Commission meeting,
Tuesday evening, February 28, 1989. Actions of the Planning Commission
will be brought to the attention of the Advisory Commission members on
Thursday evening. It is necessary for the Commission to take action, due
to the time requirements permitted by ordinance for processing of plats.
The developer has agreed not to proceed to the City Council at this time,
due to the uncertainties associated with the park site and the dump site
issues. However, due to other issues involved with the plat, the developer
agreed to proceed through the Planning Commission and Parks and Recreation
Commission; but will not proceed to the City Council for a preliminary plat
approval until issues with the dump site have been resolved. This meets
the City's requirements,;(for processing plat applications in a timely
1
manner, yet still provides the Parks Recreation Commission of assurances
that dump site issues will be resolved completely and to the satisfaction
of the City before this plat is acceptable for parks dedication.
OLD BUSINESS
There are two items under "Old Business one is the Unisys Trail and the
other is the Remick Addition, which has appeared before the Advisory
Commission at least three other times in the last two years. A separate
memorandum has been provided for both of these issues.
NEW BUSINESS
There are no items under "New Business" for the Advisory Commission.
PARKS DEVELOPMENT
There are no new items under "Parks Development" at this time for the
Commission's attention.
OTHER BUSINESS AND REPORTS
1. Department Happenings are again included in the packet for your
review. Should members have questions concerning any of these issues,
please feel free to bring them to the attention of staff.
2. Recreation Supervisor, Dorothy Peterson, would like to speak just
briefly on parks concessions to obtain direction from the Advisory
Commission regarding concession operations in the parks for this
summer.
3. Item three includes a memorandum concerning the baseball /softball and
soccer facilities available for the summer of 1989 and the status of
the proposed relationship between the Eagan Athletic Association and
the Rosemount Athletic Association. Staff's prospective is that this
issue has done a complete reversal from the direction previously
initiated and is something of a disappointment for staff.
4. The fourth item is the Citation Award that was presented to the
department by the Minnesota Recreation and Park Association. This was
given to the department for its work with the Passport to Health
Walking booklet, done in cooperation with Blue Cross /Blue Shield of
Minnesota.
5. Staff is seeking some direction from the Advisory Commission regarding
the need for and the appropriateness of having satellites in parks.
There has been a request by the Athletic Association for the City to
provide these satellites within parks for athletic events. Again,
direction from the Advisory Commission is sought.
If there are no other items for the Advisory Commission, it would then be
appropriate for adjournment.
As always, if members of the Advisory Commission are unable to attend the
Commission meeting, notification to the department would be appreciated.
Respectfully submitted,

TOWN CENTRE 100 7TH FEDERAL LAND
Parks Planner, Steve Sullivan explained that Federal Land Company has
submitted a request for the preliminary plat of two lots and one outlot on
19.5 acres currently zoned Limited Business. The parcel is located north
of O'Leary Park and Duckwood Estates and fronts Town Centre Drive with the
proposed Waterford Apartments to the east. The Commission has previously
recommended that trails /sidewalks be placed on the north side of Town
Centre Drive from Lexington Road to Denmark Avenue; on the west side of
O'Leary Lane from Yankee Doodle Road to Town Centre Drive; on the south
side of Town Centre Drive from Denmark to the western boundary of Waterford
apartments; on the west side of Waterford Apartments from Town Centre Drive
to O'Leary Park; on the north side of O'Leary Lake from Widgeon Way to the
spur trail on the west side of Waterford Apartments; on the east side of
Yankee Place from Yankee Doodle to Town Centre Drive.
The three issues for the Commission to review include what the
pedestrian transportation needs are; what the visual impact on O'Leary Park
is; and what the developmental impact on water quality of O'Leary Lake is.
Regarding pedestrian transportation needs, Steve Sullivan noted that
the proposal is currently responsible for 5 foot wide sidewalk along the
south side of Town Centre Drive. Staff suggests that the trail area
designated within the Waterford development in combination with a 20 foot
easement along the east property line of the current proposal would provide
greater flexibility for a pedestrian link. Waterford Apartment and Town
Centre 100 -7th Addition would be responsible for compatible grading and
installation of a 5 foot wide sidewalk from Town Centre Drive towards
O'Leary Park The western end of the east /west trail currently ties to
existing 20 foot trail easement tying to Widgeon Way and staff suggests
that this trail tie into the easement approximately 104 feet west of it's
current terminus.
The proposed office building is located approximately 145 feet north
of O'Leary Park and 110 feet of the lake. The finishes of the building as
it faces the park will be brick and glass with a metal roof band. On the
south side of the building is a proposed service drive to a below grade
storage area. Since the storage area in intended for building tenants,
unloading would typically occur internally. Shawn Hunter asked how much
of a rise it would be from the lake. Mr. Sullivan responded that it was
approximately 14 feet from the normal water elevation. Steve also noted
that the one area where one could see the parking lot of the building would
be just east of the building and that planting could mitigate the impact.
George Kubik asked if cut and fill would be required and Steve responded
that some fill would be necessary for the trail link.
ADVISORY PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
MINUTES OF FEBRUARY 2, 1989 MEETING

The third issue of storm water run -off has been addressed by the
City's Engineering Department as well as the Dakota County Water
Conservation District which has recommended that a portion of the parking
lot run -off, which is proposed to outlet directly into O'Leary Lake, be
redirected to holding pond DP -20 north of Town Centre Drive. Pond DP -20
would then outlet into O'Leary Lake. Shawn Hunter asked the distance to
the pond and Wayne Sames responded that it was a couple hundred feet. Mr.
Kubik asked how much of the parking lot would go to DP -20 versus O'Leary
Lake. Steve Sullivan responded that approximately 1/2 of the parking lot
to the north would go to DP -20 while the west portion will continue to go
to O'Leary Lake. Sandy Masin asked if a filter could be built so that run-
off doesn't go directly into O'Leary Lake.
George Kubik stated that the major issues have been discussed
previously and wanted to review some of the discussions the Commission had
a year ago to make sure they are still in agreement. Steve Sullivan
responded to the question of further development by stating that a bank is
planned to the east of Burger King. Noting that there were two entrances
off Town Centre Drive Wayne Sames reminded the Commission that that was one
of the reasons for not extending the trail in that area.
Responding to questions, Steve Sullivan noted that the 20 foot trail
easement is typical but that no easement has been worked out as yet for
Waterford Apartments; some additional land would need to be acquired from
them. When asked if a 5 foot sidewalk was wide enough for use by
bicyclists, Steve noted that this width is consistent with a typical
sidewalk. He also noted that whatever grading problems may occur can be
worked out. The question of the difficulty of the 8 foot east /west trail
was brought up by George Kubik. Mr. Sullivan responded that it will be
difficult but that the developer will place the trail to the end of their
property. It was also noted that there already is an easement on the
southwest end of the trail between lots on Widgeon Way. Wayne Sames
suggested that signs be installed to indicate that an easement exists so
that people can use these areas until the trails are actually constructed.
George Kubik agreed indicating this could provide some good PR for the
parks, in general. George Kubik asked what kinds of plant material would
be provided and what special measures were taken for erosion. Steve
Sullivan responded that coniferous trees would be planted and that plant
materials can be placed on a 3/1 slope.
After further discussion, Dick Carroll moved, Shawn Hunter seconded
with all members voting in favor to accept the following 9 recommendations
for this project:
1. A 20 foot wide trail easement be placed along the easterly
property line.
2. The developer, in conjunction with the easterly property owner,
be responsible for providing a 5 foot wide concrete sidewalk from
Town Centre Drive north /south to the proposed eight foot
east /west bituminous pathway.
ADVISORY PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
MINUTES OF FEBRUARY 2, 1989 MEETING
PAGE 5
3. The eight foot wide east /west trail proposed in the rear yard be
revised to be directly tied to the proposed trail within the
Waterford Apartment proposal. Also, the westerly trail terminus
extend approximately 140 feet to the southwest property corner.
4. The developer extends an eight foot bituminous trail to O'Leary
Park from the proposed eight foot east /west bituminous trail.
This north /south trail link be field staked and approved by the
City's Landscape Architect prior to installation to insure
compatible linkage to O'Leary Park pedestrian system.
5. A five foot wide sidewalk be placed along the south side of the
Town Centre Drive.
6. Additional plant material be placed south of the building and
southeast parking lot corner to provide additional
buffer /transition to O'Leary Park.
7. The storm water plan be revised to re -route parking lot
stormwater to pond DP -20.
8. Secondary filtration pond to be added.
9. Special control be used to provide erosion control.
AUTUMN RIDGE ADDITION
Steve Sullivan described the parcel which lies directly north of
Lakeside Park, east of Dodd Road and south of County Road 30. The site is
within Park Service District 25W which includes both Lakeside and South
Oaks Parks. The issues for the Commission to review included the influence
of the proposed sanitary sewer alignment through Lakeside Park, determining
what the pedestrian transportation needs are and what the park dedication
requirement should be.
The first issue regarding the sanitary sewer alignment through
Lakeside Park was reviewed giving Commission Members some alternatives to
consider. Alternative A shows an alignment between Lots 11 and 12 along
the east property line of Lakeside Park with marginal tree loss occurring
adjacent to the easterly residential lot within the Highline Trail
corridor. If tree loss is to occur, the developer would need to provide a
tree replacement plan approved by the City and the adjacent resident.
Alternative B shows the sanitary sewer alignment between Lots 7 and 8
extending to the existing stub in Atlantic Hills Drive which shows no
impact to parkland but results in additional development costs to the
developer as the need to obtain an easement from an adjacent owner.
Alternative C locates the sanitary sewer connection from the westerly end
of Street B to Dodd Road but this would require an agreement by the land
owner for the extension and to date, nothing has come about from this
discussion.
/0.
ADVISORY PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
MINUTES OF FEBRUARY 2, 1989 MEETING
PAGE 6
Dick Carroll asked what the Engineering staff recommendation was and
Steve responded that they were waiting for the Advisory Parks and
Recreation Commission's recommendation. Sandy Masin asked why there is a
preference for Alternative A to which Mr. Sullivan responded that because
there was an open space to work with, it would make for easier access by
the developer. Shawn Hunter asked what has been done to date regarding
Alternative C. Mr. Sullivan stated that there is a home on this lot and
the homeowner has not shown an interest at this point in pursuing this
alternative with the developer.
The second issue Steve Sullivan reviewed was the pedestrian
transportation need. Directly adjacent to Autumn Ridge is the site for a
proposed elementary school with Street A becoming the primary circulation
link to and from the school site. Considering that approximately 100
residents within this proposal could have walkers using this street daily,
staff suggests the consideration of a 5 foot wide concrete sidewalk be
placed along the south side of Street A. A 30 foot outlot between Lots 1
and 14 could provide a pedestrian link to Lakeside Park. After further
evaluation staff feels that a trail link between Lots 11 and 12 would serve
as a better access to Lakeside Park. Both locations warrant steps to
minimize grading and loss of trees however a trailway between Lots 11 and
12 would provide approximately 8 feet less vertical differential than at
the proposed Outlot C.
The third issue relates to the parkland dedication issue and staff is
recommending a cash dedication.
Sandy Bertz, 550 Atlantic Hills Drive, who is a neighbor of Lakeside
Park addressed some unresolved issues for the Commission to consider and
respond to. She noted that this parcel is planned for 99 homes on 38 acres
and is very much concerned about the impact this development, and future
development will have on Lakeside Park. Currently Lakeside does not have
a ballfield and since all the houses along the park are planned to be built
this year there is concern as to whether Lakeside Park can absorb the
additional development unless there is more work being planned for the
expansion of the park facilities. Another concern was the impact this
development will have on the wetland area that abuts the park.
Additionally there will be another 200 homes in the parks service district
and Ms. Bertz was concerned that both Lakeside and South Oaks parks were
perhaps too small to serve the needs of the population being planned in
this park service district.
George Kubik thanked Mrs. Bertz for her valuable input and opened the
issue for further discussion by the Commission. Shawn Hunter stated that
he felt Alternative C was out due to the third party negotiations that
would need to occur, Alternate B involved obtaining an easement and the
removal of some trees that he would hate to see, thus Alternative A seems
to have the least impact and is the path of least resistance. Wayne Sames
asked how much tree loss would occur using Alternative A and Mr. Sullivan
ADVISORY PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
MINUTES OF FEBRUARY 2,1989 MEETING
PAGE 7
responded that they should be able to complete the work without significant
tree loss. It was also determined that if Alternative A was used, any
damage done to the turf could be replaced with sod so that the park would
continue to be available to the public.
George Kubik noted that if a utility easement is required the
Commission should decide if compensation should be provided. The
Commission consensus was that compensation should be provided and that
staff should negotiate based on the total content of the easements with
engineering also involved in this review process.
Sandy Masin indicated that she would prefer that the developer not go
through the park. As another alternative for consideration, Director Vraa
suggested looking at the proposed elementary school to see if land could be
acquired adjoining the school property and perhaps a joint park project
could be considered. George Kubik inquired as to the timing of this
development for the City Council and was informed that it would be
scheduled on the Council agenda the second meeting in February.
Ken Vraa suggested that staff contact School District #196 to see if
there is any possibility of working out a joint park project with the new
school. George Kubik suggested that with that information, the Commission
members review this issue before the Joint Commission /Council meeting on
February 16th. With a quorum of members able to attend a meeting at 6:00
P.M. on Thursday, February 16, that date was set to review this issue
further.
After further discussion, Wayne Sames moved, Shawn Hunter seconded
with all members voting in favor to recommend the following:
1. To approve Alternative A sanitary sewer alignment with sod
restoration and maintenance of new sod and that steps be taken to
prevent the loss of trees in this installation.
2. The developer be responsible for compensation to the City for a
utility easement based on a negotiated value with both the Parks
and Recreation Department and Engineering Department to be
involved.
3. A 5 foot wide sidewalk be placed along the south side of Street
A
The motion further stated that the issue of cash versus land
dedication will be addressed at a special meeting at 6:30 P.M. on February
16, 1989.

COVENTRY PASS
Coventry Pass was reviewed at the January Commission meeting in an
attempt to locate a park site on the property. With a possible dumping
site being located under the property proposed to be dedicated as parkland,
follow -up testing and research has been planned to find out the extent of
the damage, if any, to the area. At this time there have been no test
results available to enable the Commission to review this issue again.
UNISYS TRAIL
Steve Sullivan updated the Commission on the recent meeting with the
neighbors surrounding the proposed trail link from Quarry Park to Pilot
Knob Park. The proposed trail was staked to enable the neighbors attending
the meeting to visualize the actual placement that was being considered for
this trail. The trail would lie in the 15 foot area along the north and
westerly side of the Unisys property and would require the removal of
approximately 20 trees and several feet of hedges. After the 11 residents
had an opportunity to walk the proposed trail, they all opposed the trail
link because of the loss of vegetation, privacy and interference to their
property.
Mr. Sullivan noted that one of the questions the residents asked is
whether the dollars from TIF that were designated for a trail link could be
used for other improvements such as additional plantings to buffer the
Unisys property from the surrounding residential homes. Steve noted that
staff would be researching this issue and will present the results to the
Commission at the March, 1989 meeting.
George Kubik, having attended the meeting, noted that there was
representation from 3 associations and 2 petitions were presented asking if
the land could be used for another use other than a trail link. Mr. Kubik
also stated that Steve Sullivan did an excellent job in presenting the
situation to the residents.
CORE APPLICATION
John VonDeLinde explained that the Department of Parks and Recreation
received application materials from the DNR in connection with Cooperative
Opportunities for Resource Enhancements program. The City has been
successful with two previous applications under the Core programs in which
the DNR allocated $27,000 in funding for the development of portable
aeration systems for Fish and Schwanz Lakes. The fishing pier applications
were withheld and the DNR suggested they be resubmitted under the 1989
program which it has done. In August of 1988 the Department was informed
that it would be receiving a fishing pier for Fish Lake under the program
but that the proposal for Schwanz Lake was being rejected.

Mr. VonDeLinde asked that the Commission make recommendations as to
whether staff should submit new applications under the fiscal year 1990
program. Staff also requests Commission's recommendations for
prioritization of fishing piers at Schwanz Lake, Thomas Lake and Heine Pond
and for an aeration system at Thomas Lake.
After further discussion George Kubik moved, Dick Carroll seconded
with all members voting in favor to proceed with an application under the
fiscal year 1990 CORE program for fishing piers and aeration systems in the
following priority order:
1. Aeration system at Thomas Lake
2. Fishing pier at Schwanz Lake
3. Fishing pier at Heine Pond
4. Fishing Pier at Thomas Lake
COMMUNITY CENTER UPDATE
Director Vraa brought the Commission up to date on the information
provided to the public to date regarding the proposed community center. He
indicated the newsletters were sent out approximately two weeks ago via the
mail versus being distributed by ADS. The 3rd cable TV show has also been
taped and will be available for viewing the last two weeks before the
referendum. Mr. Vraa also noted that Bryce Hastings was in town on Tuesday
working on a project in Plymouth and stopped to review the elements of the
contract so that work could commence providing the bond referendum was
successful.
HAPPENINGS
Recreation Supervisor, Dorothy Peterson stated that the response to
the new Recreation Supervisor position was exceptional. The review process
narrowed the field to 13 very qualified individuals who participated in the
interview process. Those 13 were reduced to the top 5 who were then
narrowed to a final 3 candidates. After follow -up interviews, staff has
recommended to the City Council that they hire John Oyangi who is currently
a recreation superintendent in St. Peter, Minnesota. He has 8 or 9 years
of experience and has been involved in a variety of things so will add a
fresh new insight into the programs he will be working with. He will
primarily be responsible for the softball program and will help with
special events. His starting date will be February 21, 1989.
George Kubik suggested that a date be scheduled for the Recreation
subcommittee to meet with recreation staff to brainstorm about new
recreation program offerings. After further discussion it was decided to
meet on Tuesday, February 14th at 5:30 P.M.

John VonDeLinde also updated the Commission on the Park Operation
Supervisor which will be filled shortly also. There were 63 applications
received, 18 of which were tested and screened down to 9 interviewees.
Three of those individuals who were interviewed were current staff members.
After the interviews were completed, Rick Pellitier who is currently on
staff, will be recommended to the City Council for hire.
Dorothy Peterson noted that staff was worried a week ago that the
weather would be too warm to continue with the Winter Weekend but now the
concern is that it will be too cold! Everything has been prepared and
there are 22 softball teams ready to play in the snow softball tournament,
however if the wind chill is -35 or colder the tournament and activities
may need to be cancelled. Radio station WLOL is scheduled to broadcast
live from the sliding party on Sunday. Commission members are welcome to
participate in any of the activities planned.
George Kubik noted the change in policy allowing tube sledding only at
Trapp Farm Park. Dorothy Peterson responded that the change has worked
very well and is a much safer, more controlled environment for
participants and staff.
WATER QUALITY
John VonDeLinde updated the Commission on the most recent Water
Quality Task Force meeting regarding water level assessments for lakes and
ponds. The results have been summarized in a chart which has been given to
Bonestroo for their assessment. This will pertain to water quantity, not
water quality. The Task Force has also been working on the framework for
the planning process and suggested a Water Quality Subcommittee meeting
with the new members prior to the joint Council /Commission meeting
scheduled for February 16th. A meeting time of 6:00 P.M. on February 16th
was set for the Water Quality Subcommittee.
George Kubik thanked the past members of the subcommittee as well as
staff for all the work and excellent results to date on this project. He
also stated a high priority was to continue with good communication with
the City Council on this important issue.
With no further business to conduct, Michele Swanson moved, Sandy
Masin seconded with all members voting in favor to adjourn. The meeting
was adjourned at 9:35 P.M.

6:30 P.M.
A special meeting of the Eagan Parks and Recreation Commission
convened at 6:30 P.M. with the following Commission Members present: Wayne
Sames, Dick Carroll, Sandy Masin and Shawn Hunter. Staff present included
Director of Parks and Recreation, Ken Vraa and Landscape Architect /Parks
Planner, Steve Sullivan.
The Advisory Commission reviewed the HUD parcel and the general
agreement was that this property should be used for park use rather than
for residential use.
AUTUMN RIDGE
Director Vraa explained that he had contacted the Director of
Elementary Education for School District 196 who was of the opinion that
the school district had not sacrificed any of their needs in their plans
for the elementary school proposed near Autumn Ridge. Therefore, the
school district did not see the need for additional park space nor the
need for a joint park project with the City of Eagan Parks and Recreation
Department.
After further discussion, Dick Carroll moved, Shawn Hunter seconded
with all members voting in favor to recommend a cash parkland dedication
for the Autumn Ridge development rather than a land dedication.

The Commission has previously reviewed the proposal at the January 5th
Advisory Parks Recreation Commission meeting. The Commission preferred
the parkland acquisition located within the southeast portion of the parcel
adjacent to Pond JP -24. A neighbor at the meeting explained that the
proposed parkland parcel was once a dumping site.
The Commission requested an environmental geotechnical analysis of the
proposed parkland acquisition. Braun Engineering has taken several borings
within the potential parkland acquisition and confirmed a 100 foot by 200
foot buried dump site. The dump is approximately 15 feet deep. Braun
Engineering intends to complete a comprehensive environmental analysis by
the March 2, 1989 Commission meeting. Braun's preliminary evaluation
indicates an organic soil with some glass particles. The boring results
indicate no buried car bodies. (See Figure #1)
ISSUES
The Commission will need to review and make recommendations regarding the
following issues:
ISSUE #1
1. Is the park layout acceptable?
2. What is the required parkland dedication and should credit be
provided?
3. How does the landfill influence the development of the park?
4. What are the pedestrian transportation needs?
IS THE PARK LAYOUT ACCEPTABLE?
The park layout is basically the same as reviewed at the January 5, 1989
Advisory Parks and Recreation Commission meeting. The facility program
includes:
*Softball field
*Open Playfield
*Hard Court
*Playground
*Parking Lot
*Loop Trail
*Picnic Area
*Boardwalk
The proposal places two lots to the northwest of the parkland parcel. The
southeast corner of the southern lot is within 35 feet of the ponds high
water elevation. The 35' dimension creates a bottleneck which bisects the
park layout. Staff suggests that the southerly lot be omitted and the rear
lot line of the northerly lot be realigned to provide additional area
between the terrestrial portion of the park and the residential lots. (See
Figure #2)
2
19
ISSUE #2
WHAT IS THE REQUIRED PARKLAND DEDICATION?
The developer is subject to a 10% land dedication. This equates to 12.24
acres of parkland. The current proposal provides approximately 5.1 acres
of parkland above the pond's high water level and less than a 12% slope.
The 5.1 acres is equivalent to 41.6% of the parkland dedication obligation.
Therefore, the balance would be a cash contribution of $68,985.00.
The Commission may consider giving credit towards the pond and steep slopes
according to the Parks Dedication Policy. The credit portion of the policy
reads as follows:
Land dedicated is to be located outside of drainways, flood
plains or ponding areas after the site has been developed.
Grades exceeding 12% or are unsuitable for parks development can
be considered for partial dedication. Where ponding has been
determined to have a park function, credit can be given at a rate
of 50% of the pond and adjoining land area below the high water
level; a minimum of 70% of land above the high water mark shall
be dedicated before pond credit is granted. Other City park
dedication policies relating to pond dedication must also be
complied with.
The steep slopes within the proposed parkland equals approximately 5.5
acres. The steep slopes are primarily along the northern and southeastern
portion of the park property. The proposed loop trail alignment is through
these areas. The northern steep slopes with the significant oak woods can
provide satellite picnicking opportunities. Parkland credit for steep
slopes is based on a partial acreage credit.
The pond is primarily a visual and interpretive resource. Approximately
50% is shallow open water with the remaining a cattail marsh. Based on the
proposed 5.1 acres of developable parkland the total credit for the pond
can not exceed an additional 1.53 acres.
Staff has provided the Commission with several scenarios based on a 1.53
acre pond credit plus a percentage range for steep slopes.
Total Total
Pond Credit Steep Slope Cr. Acres Credit Cash Credit
1.53 acres 10% .55 acres 2.08 acres $20,200.00

ISSUE #3
HOW DOES THE LANDFILL INFLUENCE THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PARK?
The completion of the geotechnical environment analysis by Braun
Engineering will indicate whether the buried debris will need to be removed
or remain. The developer has agreed to assume all responsibility for
removal and clean -up therefore assuring quality parkland development
conditions. Assuming that site correction is necessary the developer would
typically excavate poor materials and backfill with good soils. Subsurface
correction normally takes place at the time of grading. Therefore it
appears advantageous that the developer perform the grading and associated
subgrade correction. The common excavation quantity for the park is
24,000 cubic yards. This volume is relatively high for a park with 5.1
developable acres. The City's past park projects of similar scale have a
cubic yards of common excavation per acre ratio as follows:
PARK ACRES
Lakeside Park
Walnut Hill Park
Slater Acres Park
South Oaks Park
Pilot Knob Park
Meadowland Park
AVERAGE CUBIC YARDS /ACRE 1,487 /CY /Ac.
The 5.1 acres of developable parkland at the 1,487 average cubic yard /acre
equivalent equals 7,583 cubic yards. This is the typical amount of grading
for a park that has 5.1 developable acres. Therefore, staff suggests that
the City pay for 7,583 cubic yards at a fair unit value of $1.15 per cubic
yard equaling $8,720.45. The developer would pay for all grading exceeding
this volume and all subgrade correction.

FOR COMMISSION ACTION
The Commission may consider the following recommendations:
1. Omit the southerly lot located adjacent to the northwest corner
of the proposed park. The northerly lot's rear lot line be
realigned according to Figure #2.
2. The developer provides parkland dedication and the remaining
obligation in cash.
3. The developer receive a parkland credit at a rate determined by
the Commission.
4. The developer assumes all responsibility in correcting the buried
debris providing a quality park development condition.
5. The developer place topsoil and fine grade the park. The City
pay $8,720.45 towards the common excavation and the developer be
responsible for the balance.
6. The developer grade and install an 8 foot bituminous path along
the trailway corridor.
7. An 8 foot bituminous trail be installed along Dodd Road.

Petition of the
Residents of Country Hollow
Regarding the
Proposed Coventry Pass Development
I. Country Hollow
Country Hollow is a neighborhood of single family homes located immediately
south of the proposed Coventry Pass Development. Home prices in Country
Hollow range from $130,000 to $180,000, and all homes must comply with
specific covenants regarding home sizes and exterior treatments. All our
homes are less than one (1) year old.
Due to the proximity of the Coventry Pass development to our neighborhood,
the residents of Country Hollow have a vital interest in that proposed
development.
Therefore, the residents of Country Hollow submit the following comments
and proposal to the members of the Advisory Planning Commission:
II. Comments Regarding the Proposed Plat for Coventry Pass
The residents of Country Hollow have reviewed the proposed plat for
Coventry Pass, and we are excited about the size and arrangement of the
homesites, as well as the plans for the park area.
III. Comments and Proposal Regarding the Construction of Homes in
Coventry Pass
A representative of Country Hollow has discussed plans for the construction
of homes of Coventry Pass with a representative of Frontier Midwest Homes.
Frontier told our representative that they expect to construct homes in
Coventry Pass similar to the homes they are currently constructing in the
Stafford Place development. These homes are selling for $81,000 to $110,000.
The residents of Country Hollow are concerned that the construction of
homes in this price range on lots immediately adjacent to our neighborhood
will have a serious, negative impact on the value of our homes.

RE: Coventry Pass Refuge Disposal Site
P.E. Job 88135.4
Due to the discovery of a refuge disposal site on the Coventry Pass
parcel, United Mortgage is in the process of determining its impacts on
the entire development and especially on the proposed park in which
the disposal site is located.
Braun Environmental Laboratories, has been hired to investigate the
disposal site limits and area, whether or not it contains hazardous
waste materials, and monitor the ground water for pollutants. As of
this date all of the information gathering and testing is not complete.
Therefore, we are requesting that we be removed from the city council
agenda, and a continuance be granted so all pertinent data can be
collected, analyzed, and a course of action formalized.
If the disposal site is evaluated to be hazardous, the removal and
clean up will take place under strict rules and guide lines of the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. If the disposal site is inert and
non hazardous, Braun Environmental Laboratories have been asked to
determine its ability to support park facilities, such as playground
equipment, back stops, playing fields etc.. Based on their findings
United Mortgage, is prepared to do whatever is necessary to assure the
long term useability of the property, as a park facility.
We are proceeding as rapidly as possible to complete the testing and
provide reports to all concerned.
Thank you for your help in this matter.

MEMORANDUM
TO: ADVISORY PARKS RECREATION COMMISSION
FROM: STEPHEN SULLIVAN, LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT /PARKS PLANNER
DATE: FEBRUARY 15, 1989
RE: OAK CHASE 7TH ADDITION
PROPOSAL
The request is for re- zoning from agriculture to R -1 single family and
preliminary plat of 22 lots on ten acres.
BACKGROUND
The parcel is located; south of Ravine Park, north of Cliff Road, east of
Oak Chase 6th Addition and west of Ches Mar East Fourth Addition. (See
Figure #1)
ISSUE
The Commission will need to review and make recommendations regarding the
following:
1. What are the pedestrian transportation needs?
2. What is the park dedication requirement?
Issue #1
What are the pedestrian transportation needs?
The parcel is within Neighborhood Park Service Area #27. The area is
served by several small neighborhood parks including Oak Chase, Carlson,
Well Site, Goat Hill and Ravine Park. The intent is for several parks of
less acreage to provide the services of a typical 10 to 12 acre
neighborhood park. As a result, the pedestrian transportation network
reflects a combination of trail linkages along boulevards and within the
parks. Ravine Park has a designated trail corridor to Oak Chase Park, a
trailway outlot in Ches Mar East 2nd Addition, and is directly adjacent to
trails on Lexington Avenue. This network of trailways through Ravine Park
will be primarily boardwalks running within an aesthetic wetland basin.
(See Figure #2). The current proposal lying south of Ravine Park provides
the opportunity for a southerly access to the trails network by a trail
easement extending from the northern cul -de -sac. As well, a short trail
connection via an easement from the southern cul -de -sac to Cliff Road would
provide efficient access to Lebanon Hills Park and other primary boulevard
trails. (See Figure 3)
ZJ
The southern edge of the parcel fronts to Cliff Road. The Comprehensive
Trails System Plan identifies a bituminous pathway along the northern
boulevard of Cliff Road. This improvement would occur with the upgrade of
the road.
Issue #2
What is the park dedication requirement?
The proposal will be subject to a cash parkland dedication.
FOR COMMISSION ACTION
The Advisory Parks and Recreation Commission may consider the following
recommendations:
1. The developer grade a trail pad and provide a 20' trailway easement
between Lots 7 8 from the cul -de -sac to Ravine Park.
2. The developer grade a trail pad and provide a 20' trailway easement
between Lots 3 4 from the southern cul -de -sac to Cliff Road.
3. A bituminous trail be placed along Cliff Road.
4. The parcel be subject to a cash parkland dedication.

RE: STERNS ADDITION INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT #196
PROPOSAL
The proposal requests a rezoning from Agricultural to Public Facilities and
a preliminary plat of one lot on 16.46 acres for an elementary school.
BACKGROUND
The parcel is located north of Autumn Ridge Addition and east of Dodd Road.
The property is within Park Service Area 25W, which includes South Oaks and
Lakeside Park. The Commission has reviewed Park Service Area 25W at the
February 16th meeting. The Commission concluded that the area is
adequately served by parkland and recreation facilities.
ISSUES
The Commission will need to review and make recommendations regarding the
following issues:
1. What are the pedestrian transportation needs?
2. What is the parkland dedication requirement?
ISSUE #1
What are the pedestrian transportation needs?
The Commission previously recommended that the Autumn Ridge Development
provide a sidewalk along the south side of Street A and provide an outlot
to the southerly trail spur within the elementary school property. The
school site plan indicates a southerly trail alignment which does not align
with an outlot or easement within the Autumn Ridge proposal. Staff has
discussed the situation with the Autumn Ridge developer. The developer has
agreed to work with the school district to assure continuity in the spur
trail linkage to the sidewalk along Street A. The current proposal
indicates the continuation of the proposed Street A sidewalk to the primary
drive entrance of the school. Pedestrians would then walk along a sidewalk
adjacent to the driveway to the school entrance. The proposal also
indicates the continuation of the Street A sidewalk from the school to Dodd
Road. The alignment is internal to the school site and doesn't follow the
Street A boulevard. The alignment is efficient for the school user, but
not for general pedestrian circulation with destinations to Dodd Road and
beyond. (See Figure #1) Staff has provided two alternatives for the
3/-
Street A to Dodd Road trail link. Alternative #1 places the sidewalk
within the boulevard. This alternative requires the pedestrian to walk an
additional 200' to the school entrance. The trail provide efficient
circulation to Dodd Road. (See Figure #2) Alternative #2 uses the exiting
trail layout but also includes a short spur trail; this provides continuity
in the boulevard trail linkage. The school bound and the Dodd Road
destined pedestrians are both effectively served. (See Figure #2)
The Comprehensive Trail Systems Plan identifies an 8' bituminous trail
along the east side of Dodd Road.
ISSUE #2
What is the parkland dedication requirement?
Elementary schools are not subject to providing parkland dedication.
Future changes in the land use from a public facility would result in an
obligation for parks dedication.
FOR COMMISSION ACTION
The Commission may consider the following recommendations:
1. To approve the existing pedestrian system
OR
To approve pedestrian system alternative #1
OR
To approve pedestrian system alternative #2
2. An eight foot bituminous trail be placed along Dodd Road.
3. The proposal be waived of the parkland dedication. The parks
dedication fee would be implemented when a change in land use occurs.

MEMORANDA
TO: ADVISORY PARKS RECREATION COMMISSION
FROM: STEPHEN SULLIVAN, LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT /PARKS PLANNER
DATE: FEBRUARY 8, 1989
RE: UNISYS TRAIL T.I.F. AGREEMENT
PROPOSAL
The pending Tax Increment Agreement with Unisys provides $32,000 for a
trail link from Quarry to Pilot Knob Park. A trail easement is proposed
along the northerly and westerly 15' of the Unisys property. The agreement
includes the condition that if the trail is not implemented within one -year
the easement is terminated.
BACKGROUND
The Commission has previously reviewed the proposal and has been updated
routinely on the status of the T.I.F. Agreement. The memorandum therefore
does not deal with past history of changing trail locations nor
Unisys /neighborhood relations. Staff's analysis and recommendations are
based on the pending proposal, "should a trail be placed from Quarry to
Pilot Knob Park per the designated alignment
The trail would be 1,800 lineal feet and require over 250' of retaining
wall. Approximately 19 trees and 100 feet of hedges would be lost with
trail implementation. Several hundred feet of trail would be located
within a drainage Swale.
A neighborhood meeting was held at Pilot Knob Park on January 30, 1989.
Chairman Kubik, City staff and eleven residents attended the meeting.
Staff explained the pending trail proposal and conducted a site inspection
along the trail corridor. Staff had provided stakes for both the'15'
easement and the centerline of the trail alignment. Upon the completion of
the field review, we reconvened at the Pilot Knob warming house. The
neighbor's concerns and comments were as follows:
1. No resident at the meeting was in favor of the trail.
2. The proximity of the trail alignment to the adjacent residences
results in a loss of privacy. The trail would be within 30' of
the westerly townhomes; the trail being located on the resident
side of the berm. This location is inconsistent with the berms
intent to provide privacy to the adjacent homes.
3. The trails proximity to the residents property could result in
trespassing and a reduction in security.
360
4. The adjacent residents purchased their properties when no trail
was to be included.
5. The loss of trees would have a negative visual consequence.
6. Trail use would reduce the wildlife quality.
The residents questioned if other improvements could occur with the T.I.F.
funds if the trail was omitted? Also, is it possible to ensure no further
development within the trail easement if the trail was omitted?
ANALYSIS
The T.I.F. Agreement does not allow funding of non designated improvements.
If the trail was not implemented, these funds would be utilized for
designated improvements or directed towards the payment of the outstanding
bond. The funds could not be used strictly for landscaping.
Staff has contacted Unisys and questioned if the trail was omitted, would
they consider placing restrictions for future development within the
easement area. Unisys felt there was no benefit to restricting the use of
this portion of their property. Unisys would be subject to typical set-
back requirements, yet would be able to install landscaping, irrigation,
signage, lighting, etc. Unisys expressed their intentions were to
maintain the property in its current condition.
The introduction of the trail will, obviously, change that which is now
present. There will also be a loss of some vegetation. Some of this loss
can be mitigated with new landscaping plantings. Staff doubts that the
quality of wildlife will be seriously impaired as a result of the trails
installation.
The proposed trail corridor would provide a 3/4 mile length of trail
between the subject parks. The omission of this trail link would result in
pedestrian circulation via 1 -1/2 miles of trails along Yankee Doodle and
Pilot Knob Road. The additional 3/4 mile equates to fifteen minutes
walking and less than five minutes biking. Omission would also eliminate
the circulatory system within this service area.
Pilot Knob and Quarry Park support Park Service Area #9. Both parks have
facilities which include playgrounds, open play fields, hockey rinks and
free skate areas. Pilot Knob Park contains tennis courts. Quarry Park
facility program includes a park shelter building and picnic area. Each
park can function independently of each other servicing different users
within the P.S.A.
SUMMATION
The proposed trail link would provide a convenient pedestrian circulation
between Quarry Pilot Knob Parks. Omission of the trail would result in
additional time for pedestrians using the trails along Yankee Doodle and
Pilot Knob Roads. The facility program of each park, with the exception of
tennis and a picnic area, would support the typical park user needs.
Lastly, the proposed trail easement burdens the adjacent land owners with
loss of privacy, security, mature plant material and wildlife habitat,
although this could be mitigated with additional plant
material /landscaping.
FOR COMMISSION ACTION
The Commission shall consider the following recommendations to the City
Council.
1. To place a trail within the Unisys property from Pilot Knob to Quarry
Park according to the T.I.F. Agreement.
2. To omit the trail from the Comprehensive Trail System and the Unisys
T.I.F. Agreement.

TO: ADVISORY PARKS RECREATION COMMISSION
FROM: STEPHEN SULLIVAN, LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT /PARKS PLANNER
DATE: FEBRUARY 13, 1989
RE: REMICK ADDITION HIGHVIEW PARK
PROPOSAL
The Commission will review and make recommendations regarding the
alternative alignments of utility services for the Remick Addition based on
their impact to Highview Park.
BACKGROUND
The Remick Addition is a single family, one lot subdivision, located north
of Highview Park. (See Figure #1) The Commission has previously reviewed
the proposal making recommendations that the developer provide additional
parkland south and east of the subject parcel. Also, the Commission
requested a 25' building setback from the parks northern property line.
The City of Eagan Engineering Department has completed a draft copy of a
feasibility report for utility service to the Remick Addition parcel. The
report identifies two alternatives for sanitary and water service
alignments:
Alternative #1: West to High Ridge Terrace
Alternative #2: South through Highview Park to Skyline Road
The report also identifies a storm sewer alignment through Highview Park.
WATER SANITARY SERVICE
Alternative #1 (See Figure #2)
Sanitary sewer service is available from an existing 9" line on High Ridge
Terrace. The lateral line within the road would be extended 75' south to a
new manhole. The Remick Addition parcel could extend 315' of sanitary
sewer service to this manhole.
Water service is available from an existing 6" water main on Highridge
Terrace. The water main would be extended 55' and an additional hydrant
would need to be installed. The Remick Addition parcel would run 300' of
water service to the extended main.
ADVISORY PARK RECREATION COMMISSION
FEBRUARY 9, 1989
PAGE TWO
The single lot subdivision would be responsible for all costs including
extensions, hydrant, manhole, street restoration and both services. The
cost for sanitary sewer and water service is approximately $16,990.00.
Alternative #2 (See Figure #3)
Sanitary sewer and water service could extend from the Remick Parcel to
future improvements within Skyline Road. The improvement would include
approximately 210' of water and 200' of sanitary sewer service.
This alternative utilizes Highview Park as a conduit for sanitary and water
service to future improvements within Skyline Road. The alignment for both
utility services is west of the playground within an undeveloped portion of
the park. The developed portion of the park is approximately 120' X 140'
of primarily moderate and steep slopes. (See Figure #4)
The construction of Alternative #2 provides minimal tree loss and with
restoration, no visual impact would result.
The locating of a sanitary and sewer service through the park would
prohibit the placement of a future structure over the alignment. Open play
spaces and ballfields can be located within the utility alignment. The
current use of the undeveloped parcel is primarily conservation with
picnic area development in the future. Staff does not foresee potential
significant grading or the locating of a structure within the proposed
alignment. The steep and moderate slopes inhibit major recreational
facility development.
The Commission may consider recommending the developer pay for a utility
easement for the use of Highview Park, based on a 20' X 170' area at .50
per sq.ft., the developer would be responsible for $1,700.00 easement
costs. Utility easements are negotiable, therefore the Commission may look
at considerations other than cash.
The single lot subdivision would be responsible for all costs. The costs
for sanitary sewer and water service is $6,420.00. This does not include
any costs for obtaining a utility easement.
STORM SEWER
The feasibility report identifies one alignment for a storm sewer lateral
line. The location is along Remick Additions easterly property line,
south through Highview Park to future improvements in Skyline Road. (See
Figure #5).
The proposed alignment is located east of the existing play area, tying to
an existing depression located within the Remick parcel and partially
within Highview Park. The depression has no outlet and is currently used
for disposal of grass clipping, tree trimming and miscellaneous debris.
�G
ADVISORY PARK RECREATION COMMISSION
FEBRUARY 9, 1989
PAGE THREE
The report suggests that the developer construct a section of the storm
sewer to drain the depression. If the existing large lots north of the
park subdivide, the storm sewer line would be extended and paid for by
this future development. The Commission could consider an alternative to
install the entire storm sewer line with the development of the northerly
large lot parcels. This alternative would have construction occurring
within Highview Park only once and not at two separate occasions. The
depression can go without an outlet with the development of the Remick
Parcel, but not with the future development to the north.
The construction of the storm sewer line provides for minimal tree loss and
visual impact to Highview Park. The construction would include restoration
and replacement of a portion of a bituminous trail.
The Commission may consider the developer paying for a utility easement for
the storm sewer.
The cost for the storm sewer is $13,230.00.
SUMMARY
The feasibility recommends Alternative #2 based on an economic saving of

As a consideration to this review, the Commission may want to evaluate and
define their policy for placement for both private and public utility
lines through City parklands. This situation requests a private utility
service for a single parcel through Highview Park. The Commission
previously reviewed a request for a public sanitary sewer lateral through
Lakeside Park. Based on a historic perspective this situation will more
than likely occur again. Do we continue our present approach in which we
take each situation as it comes or should a policy for utility alignments
through parks be established?

RE: Unisys Trail
Dear Mr. Vraa:
We, the Battis and Mulrooney families, respectively
own our homes at 1466 and 1470 Red Cedar Road. As
you know, these properties border Unisys on the north.
The Unisys land abuts our back yards. We write to reg-
ister our opposition to the establishment of a walk-
ing /biking path, proposed as "Unisys Trail."
First of all, we question the fundamental rationale
for the trail. The Pilot Knob and Quarry parks are
essentially already "connected" by way of the existing
walks and trails which adjoin Yankee Doodle and Pilot
Knob roads, and also by the Unisys interior road scheme
which has been being used by walkers /bikers, etc for
years apparently without objection from Unisys. It
would appear that the proposed trail is simply not
needed, particularly when it would require upwards of
an estimated $35,000 for construction and more expense
for ongoing maintenance of the trail itself and a
proposed retaining wall.
Secondly, since your staff and crew recently placed
the supposed property line and highlighted the proposed
centerline of the trail, the following constitute our
very grave concerns and objections:
The anticipated location of the
trail would require the removal of protect-
ive /screening hedges and numerous trees
at the rear of our particular lots.
Many, many mature trees would have
to be removed along the entire expanse
of the trail. These trees act as some
screen to the activities on the Unisys land.
Advisory Parks Commission
p. 2
The primary purpose of the berm
along the property line, which we fought
for from Unisys,- to screen and buffer
activities on that property would be
obviated. With the trail proposed north
of or "outside" the berm, the traffic
of users of the path, with its attendant
litter, animal residue, noise, etc.,
would be fully exposed to our back yards.
The back yards of all of the eight to ten
Red Cedar Road homes which bound the
Unisys northerly property line would
suffer this exposure and consequent
breach of privacy, potential trespass
and property damage.
Although we understand that Unisys
has somewhat forced your proposed locat-
ion of the trail because Unisys has
refused to dedicate an easement over the
existing East /West road or otherwise
within its property south of the berm,
we respectfully suggest that the path's
location as proposed for all of its
consequences as above outlined is
inconsistent with the normal, commendable
concern of your Commission and the City
Council avoid removing trees at all
costs; insist on buffers and screening
between single family residential and
other property users, e.g. multiple
family, commercial, industrial, or public
purpose.
Finally, you should know that we contest what
Unisys has apparently advised you is its northerly
property line as it abuts our lots. Your staff has
"staked" this supposed line by installing "blue
ribbon" stakes in the ground. In fact, by virtue
of the legal doctrine known as "adverse possession,"
that northerly line is at least ten feet to the
south of where those stakes have been located.
Please see our letter to Unisys (Sperry) dated Aug
use 8, 1985 (copy enclosed). Although there were
subsequent conversations and negotiations, Unisys
ultimately chose not to follow through to resolve
the situation. Thus, the proposed location of the
trail behind our houses would trespass or "take"
property to which we make claim.
Advisory Parks Commission
p. 3
For all the reasons set forth herein, we
request that you abandon /reject the project
known as "Unisys Trail at least in the locat-
ion presently proposed.
Thank you for your attention and considerat-
ion. If you have questions, please contact us.

Dear Mr. Tank:
We have conferred about the subject in your letters to
each of us dated July 10 (post- marked July 15), 1985.
Our research concludes that the portion of each property
involving the hedge(s) and north to the original prop-
erty line(s) has been possessed adversely to Sperry's
interests for more than the requisite fifteen (15) years,
per Minnesota law.
Thus, we expect Sperry to do nothing concerning the hed-
ge(s) or otherwise to violate our rights to the subject
property.
We would be happy to work with you to try to resolve any
dispute.

Dear Mr. Mulrooney:
This letter is a follow -up to our telephone conversation
regarding the property line between Sperry's and your
property.
As I stated; Sperry, as part of its ground maintenance program,
is contacting bordering property owners where it is apparent
Sperry's property is being used for that property owners'
benefit and prevents Sperry from establishing a uniform grounds
maintenance program. Therefore, the hedge on Sperry's property,
south of your property, will have to be removed. Sperry has
no objections should you desire to remove any portion of the
hedge for transplanting onto your property. However, Sperry
would like to know if you wish to do so in order for Sperry to
complete that phase of its maintenance program within 30 days.

Attention: Ken Vraa
Director of Parks and Recreation
Subject: Proposed Trail (Quarry Park Pilot Knob Park)
Dear Mr. Vraa:
My name is John Chapuran. I am a Timberline home owner and live at 1460 Red
Cedar Road (1st house west of pump house). My wife, Katherine, and I have
lived here almost 15 years.
First of all, my wife and I are adamantly opposed to this proposed trail. I
attenLed the November 28 meeting and also took the January 30 walking tour of
the proposed trail. If this trail were constructed, as proposed, we (my wife
and I) would lose 7 trees which have provided a barrier and shield between the
Unisys building and our property. I am not talking about 7 young trees, but
mature trees which have been growing at least 20 years. These trees have been
tagged and would be removed. Many other mature trees have been tagged for re-
moval along the trail route as you proceed west along the northern perimeter
of the Unisys property.
The removal of these trees appears injonsistent with the agreement between
Unisys(Sperry) and the Timberline residents regarding the construction of the
semi conductor plant. Unisys agreed to berm and provide suitable landscaping
which has been done. Now, when these trees have or are maturing,they are
tagged to be cut down. Further,the proposed trail is to be constructed on
the north side of that berm i.e. between thRe berm and the homeowner's property.
If the berm is to act as a buffer, it would seem the trail should be on the
south side. I don't understand.
I know affected homeowners are concerned about the close proximity of this trail
to their homes. This trail would obviously infringe upon privacy. Further,
the use of the trail by people walking their dogs would create another problem
i.e. dog droppings. I am quite aware of this problem because of the path from
Red Cedar /Woodlark to Pilot Knob park. You always have to watch your step and
this is very irritating to say the least.
In closing, I want to re- emphasize our strong opposition to this proposed trail.
Cutting down mature trees for the sole purpose of constructing a trail which
most people do not want seems illogical. I would suggest that if money is
available from Unisys for this trail, that the money be used to augment the ex-
isting landscaping between Unisys and the affected homeowners.

DEPARTMENT HAPPENINGS
1. The 1989 Adult Softball Season is shaping up to be an even bigger year
than 1988. Already, the lists of new teams indicate that the Women's
and Co -Rec Leagues will be near capacity. The Softball League
Leadership committee met February 22 to discuss budgets, use of a new
ball, furnishing the concession stand at Northview, rule changes and
the timeline leading up to the start of the new season. Registration
for returning teams begins March 6 and runs through March 17. New or
late returning teams can register March 20 -24, depending upon
openings. Games begin the weeks of May 2 and May 8.
2. Winter programs will be ending in two weeks. Our focus will then turn
to spring and summer programs.
3. An additional section of Tiny Tots has been added for the spring
session for a total of five sections. Denise King has been hired as a
contractual Tiny Tots instructor to each this class. Denise will also
be teaching the Me Two!, Fitness Fun and Games Kids Play classes.
Dawn Peterson, who has taught these classes for the past 2 -1/2 years
is moving and no longer able to teach. We will miss Dawn's creativity
and enthusiasm and wish her well in her new home.
4. The 1989 speedskating season has ended, twenty -four participants
braved the cold winter weather every Tuesday and Thursday evening for
lessons. On week -ends, optional meets were held in the Twin Cities
area. Charlotte Kim Kostron, from St. Paul, did an excellent job of
keeping the children interested in coming back each week. A pizza
party is being planned to wrap up this season and brainstorm for next
year.
5. March 5, subject to weather conditions, has been set as the final day
for the shelters being open for skating and sliding activity. The
1988/89 season has been the longest in the memory of the department.
6. Look for the City Newsletter on approximately March 12. Spring
recreation programs with names such as Kite Flying and Pizza Party,
Win A Rose for Mom, Spring Golf Lessons; Discover Us! will leap from
the pages!
7. Six NYSCA coaches clinics have been scheduled. All three recreation
staff are certified to conduct the clinics and will be providing this
service to the community.
8. Eagan seniors are going out for lunch for one meeting this month and
will go to the Old Log Theatre in April. The deaths of Mary O'Neill
and Violet Friberger in February impact our seniors group.
9. The Eagan Stagedoor Performers are planning a wine and cheese
reception at the Municipal Center on March 30 from 5 7 P.M.
Commission members are invited to come to this event to meet leaders
in the community and Stagedoor Performers folk.
zi-s
S
10. Bids for concession room equipment for the Northview shelter are being
solicited. The goal is to have the concession operational on the
first night of play, May 2.
11. The broomball leagues have completed their seasons. Teams will be
participating in state tournaments this month.
12. Likewise, the men's basketball leagues are approaching competition.
Their state tournaments are also in March.
13. Distribution of the City telephone directory will happen soon. Please
not the back side of the map. Discover Us!
14. Work on the summer /fall volume of the Activities Calendar will begin
this month. A May distribution is targeted.
15. Interviews for the department's new half time clerical position will
be held on March 3. Assistance is needed with computer entries for
registrations and facility reservations, and with the daily typing
load.
16. Recreation staff are giving of their time to MRPA committees. Mel
Bailey and Paula Nowariak are on the Walk Minnesota Committee. The
walk will originate from Sky Hill Park on Saturday, April 29.
Paula is on the playground workshop committee.
Mel, Dorothy and Jon Oyanagi are on the membership committee. (Would
you guess that we control the committee!)
17. Staff has received /reviewed a sketch plan for a residential
development south of Patrick Eagan Park access road, and immediately
adjacent to Lexington Avenue. Access to the development would come
from the current park road. Staff will be reviewing this proposal,
and its implications to the park, if the proposed is formalized and
presented as a preliminary plat.
18. Bids for construction of the well house /park shelter building at
Evergreen Park were approved at the recent Council meeting. The
building will be under construction this spring.
19. Staff will be preparing a letter to go to the residents of the Wescott
Station Park area for the purpose of conducting an initial planning
meeting for the park. A tentative schedule would provide for an
"input" meeting in March /April; with alternative concept plans
developed April /May followed by a 2nd neighborhood meeting. Plan or
plans to be revised with a 3rd and final neighborhood meeting to
review a master plan. Construction plans and documents to be prepared
during the fall /winter of 1989/90, with anticipation a spring (April)
1990 bid opening. Willmus Park, not yet acquired, would follow a
similar review process except that an initial meeting may not be
necessary because a preliminary plan has been developed during the
land acquisition phase.
49-
20. Staff will be meeting with residents west of Blackhawk Park on
Thursday, March 9th. Residents are opposed to the preliminary park
plan that has been developed for the grant application. Residents
appear to prefer a nature park.
There is also concern for water quality in Blackhawk Lake. Staff
expects to hear residents concerns in order to address them in a
master plan.
21. Staff has received the necessary information required to prepare for a
negotiation meeting with Leo Murphy for road access into Blackhawk
Park. A meeting will be set up in March to discuss this roadway /park
acquisition.
22. Forestry staff completed the clean -up of dead trees and stumps along
the shoreline of Mooney Lake during the month of February. This work
was concentrated on the west end of the lake, adjacent to the
Chatterton Ponds Development. This project essentially completes
clean -up work within Berry Patch Park and opens up possibilities for
new landscape plantings following the completion of the bituminous
trail this year.
23. Maintenance of all hockey and pleasure and skating rinks continued
through the month of February. Commission members may recall that in
late January the weather was unseasonably warm and did considerable
damage to the rinks. This was followed by a period of extremely cold
temperatures which allowed maintenance staff to rehabilitate many of
the rinks providing good skating surfaces for the public throughout
the month of February. The favorable weather made possible one of the
longest skating seasons in recent years.
24. The warm -up of late January destroyed most opportunities for cross
country skiing at Patrick Eagan and Blackhawk Parks, however by mid
February snowfalls improved the cross country skiing surfaces and the
City of Lakeville was able to provide grooming services in Eagan's
parks.
25. Maintenance staff continued to work on construction of picnic tables,
soccer goals, batting tunnels and park identification signs during the
month of February. These projects will continue as the season comes
to a close in preparation for installation in the City's parks this
spring.
26. The lake aeration systems continued in operation at Fish and Schwanz
Lakes. As reported in the January Happenings, both of these systems
are working to the satisfaction of the Department of Natural Resources
and should provide a sound basis for future fish management and
stocking programs. In fact, recently the department learned that the
D.N.R. is considering the complete rehabilitation and re- stocking of
Schwanz Lake in the spring of this year.
56
27. Maintenance workers Steve Taylor and Dan Curtin completed the annual
maintenance to the department's two gang mowers and seven
groundsmaster mowing units. This work included the re- sharpening of
reels, rehabilitation of mowing decks and annual preventative
maintenance work. The department is now in the process of acquiring
an additional set of replacement reels to provide for better
efficiency in the weekly grinding and sharpening operation.
28. The department has been busy writing specifications and taking
quotations on a number of capital equipment purchases authorized in
the 1989 budget. Included among these are a 3/4 ton maintenance
truck, gang mower replacement reels, groundsmaster mower, weed
spraying unit for the Cushman Truckster, chain saws, back pack blowers
and 500 gallon tree watering tank for the Forestry Division.
29 In February, maintenance personnel completed re- certification in
cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and participated in a basic
welding refresher course. Jim McGuffee, Steve Taylor, Tom Schuster
and Dan Curtin also completed re- certification in the pesticide
applicator course at the University of Minnesota.
30 Maintenance workers Rich Pelletier and Dan Curtin contributed several
days towards the unloading of 14,000 plastic bins for Eagan's new
waste recycling program. The private refuse haulers will be
responsible for distribution of the bins to the City's residential
areas.
31. Department staff have been assisting the architectural firm of B.R.W.
with a space needs analysis and program statement for future expansion
of the public works building. The City Council has authorized funding
in the 1989 budget for expansion of the front office area. Included
in this study will be an examination of on -site storage needs, vehicle
equipment bays and other maintenance service rooms for a planning
horizon to the Year 2000. A final report on Eagan's public works and
parks maintenance spacial needs is expected sometime in April or May.
32. On February 13, Rich Pelletier assumed his new duties as parks
operation supervisor. Rich was formerly a maintenance worker with the
Parks and Recreation Department. The City is pleased that one of its
own personnel was best choice among 63 applicants for this position.
Advertising for Rich's replacement has already begun with an applicant
deadline of March 3rd.
33. Recruitment for seasonal maintenance employees and park attendants was
begun in February. This year the department anticipates the hiring of
close to 20 maintenance employees and up to 6 park attendants. One of
the major changes precipitating this increase in seasonal help is the
addition of the parks operation supervisor position. This position
will be responsible for overseeing extended maintenance activities on
week -ends and evening hours. An increase in staffing will also be
required with the soon to open Thomas Lake Community Park facility.
6
34. February 5th through February 8th, John VonDeLinde, Park
Superintendent, attended the third year of the Executive Development
Program at Indiana University. The focus of this educational session
was on promoting use of the private sector in parks recreation
development and maintenance. John has brought back several good ideas
related to philanthropic support, foundations and fund raising.
35. At the request of the Advisory Parks Recreation Commission, staff
completed and filed the City's 1989 CORE application to the Department
of Natural Resources. This application is requesting technical and
financial assistance for the placement of fishing piers at Schwanz
Lake, Heine Pond, Thomas Lake and the development of an aeration
system at Thomas Lake. Final rankings on these applications is
expected sometime in August or September.

MEMORANDUM
TO: ADVISORY PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION
FROM: RECREATION SUPERVISOR, DOROTHY PETERSON
DATE: FEBRUARY 28, 1989
RE: YOUTH BASEBALL, SOFTBALL AND SOCCER FACILITIES FOR THE SUMMER OF
1989
BACKGROUND
As the Commission will recall, department staff have been regularly meeting
with a Facilities Steering Committee. Representatives from Eagan Athletic
Association, Rosemount Area Athletic Association and Community
Education,district 196 have joined city staff to discuss the growth in
youth athletic programs and the status of facilities.
During the course of the past year and a half, discussions have ebbed and
flowed from maintaining all current alliances (RAAA standing alone and EAA
programming jointly with the Burnsville Athletic Club) to possible new
alliances (Joint EAA /RAAA programming, common flyers and registration) to
EAA standing alone.
The bottom line is that for 1989, the associations plan no changes for
youth athletic association alliances, marketing of programs or in their
expectations for field space. RAAA will stand alone and EAA is aligned
with BAC.
ISSUES
The Eagan Athletic Association and the Rosemount Area Athletic Association
both market their programs in Eagan elementary schools. The result is that
while EAA's participants approximate 100% Eagan "kids RAAA's
participants, from Eagan comprise 45% of that association's total.
The drought during the summer of 1988 has created severe facilities
problems. New parks, hoped to be available for use in 1989 will not be
ready. Additionally, several parks used in 1988 may be required to be
taken out of service this year in order that they can "recover How far
reaching that will be will only be known when the grass begins to grow in
the spring.
Requests to use city facilities will be issued by both EAA and RAAA. Each
association will cite their numbers of Eagan participants in anticipation
of being assigned an increased number of facilities.
DEPARTMENT PROCEDURE
Travel soccer requests will come first. A Facilities Steering Committee
meeting will be called to receive those field requests. In conjunction
with school district 196, an allocation of facilities will be made. The
City's free standing soccer fields at Northview Athletic, Quarry Park and
the Blue Cross Blue Shield fields are the facilities in question. A small
field at Oak Chase Park could be considered.
Baseball and softball requests will be heard at another Facilities Steering
Committee meeting. Again, in conjunction with school district 196, field
allocations will be made. The age of participants and size of field will
be carefully considered.
The youth athletic associations have been advised to consider Friday and
Saturday games to maximize the use of the fields.
FOR COMMISSION INFORMATION:
It is anticipated that despite all efforts by the department to be
impartial and fair during the allocation process, there will be residents
who will be not pleased with where their child is scheduled to play. The
Commission should be advised that in those instances, a parent is far
removed from and it is not likely that he /she is informed of the ongoing
attempt by the department to search for solutions to this on going dilemma.
In addition, Parks and Recreation does not create the youth athletic
association game schedules!
Staff will continue to keep you appraised of how difficult it is to balance
existing space with the demand for use.

On behalf of the Eagan Advisory Parks and Recreation Commission
we would like to take this opportunity to extend a sincere thank
you for your company's past contributions to the Eagan Youth
Explorer Post.
As I'm sure you know, the Eagan Police Department and Park and
Recreation Department have been working closely, since
establishment of the Explorer Post in 1987, in what we have come
to know as our "Eagan Park Ranger Program Through your
assistance, the City has set up a program whereby these young
adults can patrol Eagan parks and learn in a real life setting
what it is like to deal with the public and confront realistic
law enforcement situations. To assist them, these young people
have been given thorough training sessions, on many aspects
related to "police work." They have been afforded their own
uniforms and a "patrol car" for their activities.
Since the beginning of the program, in June 1987, these young
adults have contributed over 3,000 hours of volunteer time doing
public relations work in Eagan parks. Their efforts have
contributed to a noticeable decrease in the incidence of
vandalism and depreciative behavior in the city's parks. They
have been instrumental in enhancing the public's knowledge about
the park and recreation system and in making our users feel
welcome and safe in their pursuit of leisure activities.

At the January meeting of the Advisory Parks and Recreation
Commission, officials of the Police Department and members of the
Youth Explorer Program were given plaques and lapel pins as a
token of appreciation for their fine efforts. But the Commission
recognizes that this program has been a "team effort," going
beyond just the walls of City Hall. Only through the
contributions of local businesses could this program have become
a reality. Because it has been such a success, we would be
greatly remiss in not extending the sincerest of thank you's for
your company's past participation.
We only hope that Northwest Airlines will continue to be involved
in the months and years ahead in supporting this fine effort for
our growing community.

CITY OF EAGAN
SUBJECT: PRELIMINARY PLAT, SITE PLAN REVIEW
RAHNCLIFF 3RD ADDITION
APPLICANT: RAHNCLIFF CROSSING, INC.
LOCATION: OUTLOTS A, B, C, RAHNCLIFF 2ND ADDITION
EXISTING ZONING: PLANNED DEVELOPMENT
DATE OF PUBLIC HEARING: FEBRUARY 28, 1989
DATE OF REPORT: FEBRUARY 21, 1989
COMPILED BY: DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
APPLICATION SUMMARY: An application has been submitted
requesting a Preliminary Plat for the Rahncliff 3rd Addition
consisting of three lots located near the southwest intersection
of Highway 35E and Cliff Road. The final plat of the Rahncliff
2nd Addition was approved on November 1, 1988. Platting these
three outlots in one addition will eliminate future 4th and 5th
Additions in this Planned Development. This should not pose any
problems as the overall engineering design was completed with the
Rahncliff 2nd Addition.
No specific users have been identified for Outlot A (2.7 acres)
and Outlot B (1.8 acres), however the Planned Development
Agreement specifically requires that all Outlots (A, B, and C) be
reviewed by the Advisory Planning Commission and City Council.
Outlot C (.8 acres) will be developed immediately for a Bakers
Square restaurant. The plan, as submitted, is consistent with
the overall development plan except a pick up drive lane has been
included along the south side of the building. The detailed
landscape plan is very well done and ties in nicely with the
overall plan. The Planned Development Agreement required that
all trash facilities be contained within the building except for
the fast food facility in the 2nd Addition (Burger King). This
plan shows an enclosure attached to the building that would be
consistent with all other restaurants recently approved.
PARKS RECREATION ISSUES:
Staff will be recommending a cash parkland dedication at the
March 2nd Advisory Parks and Recreation Commission meeting.
GRADING /DRAINAGE /EROSION CONTROL: The proposed site has been
previously rough graded and minimal site grading is required for
site development. The drainage is planned to be intercepted
internally and conveyed to the southwest to the existing storm
sewer located in Rahncliff Court. The storm sewer in Rahncliff
Court is of sufficient capacity to convey the site generated
storm water to Pond AP -44. Pond AP -44 is a designated ponding
area in the City Comprehensive Storm Sewer Plan. Pond AP -44
drains northeast to Pond AP -42 located north of Cliff Road.
Adequate erosion control measures are proposed to limit the
sediment leaving the site through the storm sewer system. It is
important that all erosion control measures are properly
installed and maintained throughout the construction period.
UTILITIES: Sanitary sewer of sufficient depth and capacity to
serve this site is readily available in Rahncliff Court. The
development proposes to connect to the existing 6" service
located in the east boulevard of Rahncliff Court. Staff
recommends that a manhole be installed over the existing service
as a means of access, then eliminating the need for the proposed
clean -outs. Horizontal alignment and access are the factors for
the proposed manhole installation.
Water main of sufficient capacity and pressure is readily
available along the east side of the proposed building. The
development proposes to take its water service from this existing
water main. Sufficient fire hydrant protection was provided as
a part of the Rahncliff Plaza Development.
STREETS /ACCESS /CIRCULATION: Improved public street access to
serve the proposed site is readily available from Rahncliff
Court. All entrances into parking areas from public street right
of -way and all major internal parking lot driving aisles are
required to be 30' wide. The proposed internal parking lot
circulation maneuvers are subject to a detail review.
EASEMENT /RIGHT -OF- WAY /PERMITS: Sufficient right -of -way for
Rahncliff Court was provided with the platting of Rahncliff 1st
and 2nd Additions. The development is responsible for dedicating
all appropriate cross easements for traffic circulation and
utility easements for water main and storm sewer.
All regulatory agency permits shall be acquired within the
appropriate time frame as required by the affected agency.
FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS: The proposed parcel has fulfilled the
necessary financial obligations associated with public
infrastructure improvements in accordance with present city
policies.
RAHNCLIFF CROSSING, INC. CONDITIONS:

CITY OF EAGAN
SUBJECT: PRELIMINARY PLAT, SPECIAL PERMIT (EAGAN
CENTER 3RD ADDITION)
APPLICANT: TRI -LAND PARTNERSHIP OF EAGAN
LOCATION: NW 1/4 SECTION 36
EXISTING ZONING: CSC /GB /LB WITHIN LEXINGTON SOUTH P.D.
DATE OF PUBLIC HEARING: FEBRUARY 28, 1989
DATE OF REPORT: FEBRUARY 22, 1989
COMPILED BY: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
APPLICATION SUMMARY: Separate applications have been submitted
requesting a Preliminary Plat of 48.37 commercially -zoned acres
within the Lexington South Planned Development into one lot
containing 19.9 acres for a golf driving range with the remaining
acres being platted into eleven Outlots for future development.
Golf driving ranges are not specifically listed as permitted
Conditional Uses, or as Special Uses; however, if the use is
deemed appropriate by the City Council, the Special Permit will
allow the City to monitor the situation on a regular basis and
that use would only be allowed to this applicant. The use would
not run with the land as is the case with a Conditional Use
Permit.
EXISTING CONDITIONS /SITE PLAN: Currently this site is flat, open
grassland and would be well- suited for the proposed use.
Platting is necessary since no development can occur on Outlots.
The applicant feels that the ultimate commercial development will
not happen in the near future and that this temporary use would
be appropriate for the site. A modular wood building will house
the maintenance equipment and rental shop /cashier. State
Building Code requires that permanent bathroom facilities be
constructed in that building. Similar buildings were used at
Northview Elementary School a couple of years ago. Those
buildings also required Special Use Permits. The parking lot
will need to be curb and guttered to meet City Code requirements
and 24 stalls have been provided for the 20 tee facility. Access
will be directly onto Lexington Avenue at Patrick Road just south
of the Lexington
Center Mall.
PARKS ISSUES: The parkland dedication requirements were
previously fulfilled with the Lexington South Planned
Development.
GRADING /DRAINAGE /EROSION CONTROL: The preliminary plans for the
proposed golf driving range located at the southeast corner of
Lexington Avenue and Diffley Road proposes minimal grading for
the site development. The grading includes a proposed parking
lot located at the northwest corner and berm construction around
the perimeter of the site. The proposed fence will be located
on the proposed bermed areas. The entire site with the exception
of the proposed parking area will surface drain primarily in an
easterly direction. The proposed parking area will surface drain
westerly to the existing catch basins located at the easterly end
of Patrick Road. The storm runoff is then conveyed to the west
to the existing storm sewer trunk line located in the Lexington
Avenue right -of -way.
An incomplete erosion and sediment control plan was submitted as
a part of this preliminary plat application.
STREETS /ACCESS /CIRCULATION: No public streets are proposed for
the construction of the proposed site. Access to the proposed
site will be from Patrick Road, a public right -of -way
approximately 350' in length east from Lexington Avenue. Patrick
Road is presently not maintained by the City.
UTILITIES: Existing sanitary sewer is located at the east end of
Patrick Road. No direct hook up to the existing sanitary sewer
is proposed for this project. Portable toilets are proposed to
be used.
An existing water main is also located at the east end of Patrick
Road. A 2" tap is proposed to serve the proposed sprinkler
system for the area south of the parking lot. A staff
recommendation for the water system is that a curb stop and a
water meter be installed. No water service for human consumption
is proposed for this project.
EASEMENTS /RIGHT -OF- WAY /PERMITS: No easements or right -of -way is
required for this proposed development. All regulatory agency
permits shall be acquired within the appropriate time frame as
required by the affected agency.

CITY OF EAGAN
SUBJECT: COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN AMENDMENT,
REZONING, PRELIMINARY PLAT, VARIANCE
(COVENTRY PASS ADDITION)
APPLICANT: FRONTIER COMPANIES /UNITED MORTGAGE
LOCATION: NE 1/4 SECTION 24
EXISTING ZONING: A (AGRICULTURAL)
DATE OF PUBLIC HEARING: FEBRUARY 1989
DATE OF REPORT: FEBRUARY 21, 1989
REPORTED BY: DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
APPLICATION SUMMARY: Separate applications have been submitted
requesting a Rezoning of 106.9 AG (Agricultural) acres to an R -1
(Single Family) district and 15.9 acres to PF (Public Facilities)
for City parkland and a Preliminary Plat for the Coventry Pass
Addition consisting of 225 lots. This large triangular site of
122.4 acres is located east of Dodd Road abutting Inver Grove
Heights to the east, the R -1 Country Hollow Additions and General
Business zoned Clarkson Place to the south.
COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE GUIDE PLAN
The Eagan Comprehensive Guide Plan is the City's statement of
goals, objectives, and policies for guiding future development
within the City. The Land Use Plan designates the types and
locations of future land use for all property in Eagan. The
boundaries of these future land uses are generally located for
undeveloped or under developed parcels. When a specific
development project is proposed for such parcels, the locations
and boundaries of the land use designations should be refined to
reflect appropriate developments.
The proposed project includes property designated in the Land Use
Plan for D -II (Mixed Residential, 0 -6 units per acre), P (Parks),
and IND (Industrial). The proposed development contains,, 225
single family lots plus a 15 -acre (approx.) park, and would be
consistent with the D -II and P designations. However, the
location for the proposed park is different from the area
designated for P on the Land Use Plan. As such, the proposed
project requires a Comprehensive Plan Amendment within the
project boundaries to: 1) change the area designated P to D-II,
2) change portions of the area designated D -II to P, and 3)
change the area designated IND to D -II.
The amendment changing the land use designation from D -II to P
and P to D -II is basically a relocation of the same uses within
the project area, rather than a change in land use types.
Likewise, given the current location of the D -II area to the
south of the existing IND area, the amendment changing the land
use designation from IND to D -II is essentially a refinement of
the land use designation boundaries.
BACKGROUND: The original plan was reviewed by the Advisory
Planning Commission on December 22, 1988 and continued for a
variety of reasons. One of the most important issues was the
parkland dedication. The Comprehensive Plan, as well as the
Parks System Plan, recognizes the need of a neighborhood park in
that portion of the City. That area was previously illustrated
between Dodd Road and the large pond near the center of the site.
This revised application proposes to shift the park to the
southeast adjacent to Industrial -zoned Inver Grove Heights and
the Clarkson Addition. The City's Parks Department reviewed this
site and a conceptual development plan submitted by the applicant
to determine whether the proposed layout met the City's
neighborhood parks requirement. It did not.
Soon after that December meeting, United Mortgage became involved
in the project and a new design /engineering firm was brought into
the project. The old plan was dropped and a new conceptual plan
was submitted for staff review. Planning and Parks departmental
staff met with the applicant to review the plan and it was agreed
that the Advisory Parks Recreation Commission would review the
concept plan at the January meeting. However, no specific action
regarding the dedication requirements would be allowed. The
Parks Commission generally agreed that the revised parkland
dedication may meet their park service district requirements.
At that meeting, a neighbor brought out the fact that dumping had
occurred on the proposed parkland parcel. This was an issue that
City staff, as well as the applicant, was unaware of. As a
result, the Parks Commission continued this item until an
Environmental Geotechnical Analysis of the proposed parkland
could be obtained. Braun Engineering has taken several borings
within the proposed parkland and confirmed a 100' x 200' buried
dump site approximately 15' deep. This comprehensive review is
not complete, but should be prior to the March 2nd Parks
Commission meeting.
At a meeting held on February 21, the applicant, and City staff,
agreed to place this item on the February 28 APC meeting so the
land use question could be resolved while the environmental
analysis is being completed. Action by the Advisory Parks
Recreation Commission will be taken only when the Environmental
Analysis is completed by Braun Engineering and reviewed by City
staff. If the site can be cleaned up to City and MPCA standards,
the item will then be scheduled for the next available City
Council meeting. The applicant has agreed in writing to this
process.
EXISTING CONDITIONS /SITE PLAN: This site consists primarily of
open grassland, with scattered oaks near the pond and the
farmstead east of the large central pond. The farmstead will
remain initially on two lots. The home will need to hook up to
City utilities immediately since the lot area is below the one
acre minimum R -1 lot size for well and septic systems. The
overall site plan is an improvement over the original plan most
of the double fronted lots have been eliminated and the access
along Dodd Road has been shifted to the north. All lots meet, or
exceed, R -1 requirements, but some of the lots along Dodd Road
will be tough to build on without reducing the setback to 40'.
This would be similar to Whispering Woods Additions along Slater
Road where no direct access is taken. The lots vary in size from
12,000 square feet to 65,100 square feet with the largest
adjacent to parkland. The average size is 15,960 with a net
density (excluding park and R.O.W.) of 2.74 units /acre.
GRADING /DRAINAGE /EROSION CONTROL: The preliminary grading plan
submitted as a part of this application proposed cut and fill
areas ranging from 31' to 10', respectively.
Fill of approximately 10' is proposed to be placed over an
existing 12" PVC sanitary sewer, 6" water main and 12" storm
sewer force main in the southwest corner of the development.
Staff recommends that the existing 6" water main be removed and
replaced with a new line installed at the proper depth. The
other two lines should be tested before and after the fill is
placed to check for damage to the existing pipes.
The preliminary street grades as shown on the grading plan meet
the City's standards. This development is required to match the
existing grades provided in the adjoining Country Hollow
development.
The grading plan shows slopes steeper than a 3:1 slope in four
areas. If the grading plan cannot be revised to show a 3:1
slope, then retaining wall construction is required.
Staff recommends that the grading plan along the north end of
Pond JP -25.3 be revised to show that the pond be excavated to the
normal water level.
The grading of the lots abutting Dodd Road shall be designed to
match the future street grade of the upgraded Dodd Road.
Two sets of retaining walls are shown on the grading plan along
the east property line ranging in height from 2 to 10'. The
design of the retaining walls will be reviewed by City staff.
The development is proposing to convey the site generated storm
water runoff from the north end of the site to Pond JP -56 as per
the City's Comprehensive Storm Sewer Plan. The preliminary
drainage plan proposes to provide an outlet for Pond JP -56 to
Pond JP -23, which also receives storm water runoff from the
central portion of the development. As shown on the drainage
plan, Pond JP -23 is required to have a storm sewer outlet
draining to Pond JP -24.
Pond JP -24, located in the southeastern area of this development,
and Pond JP -25.4 shall have storm sewer outlets draining to Pond
JP -25.3. A majority of Pond JP -25.4 is located on parcel number
010 -79, which is currently undeveloped.
The development will be required to provide emergency overland
outlets from all low areas.
Staff recommends that a storm sewer inlet be added in between
Lots 17 and 16 of Block 7 on Lantern Lane to collect the runoff
water in the backyard swale. The storm sewer inlet shall have
sufficient capacity to handle 7 cfs.
The two existing culverts that cross Dodd Road north of Elrene
Road collect runoff from the northwest side of Dodd Road and
convey it to the southeast side. Staff recommends that storm
sewer lines shall be extended along Dodd Road to collect the
runoff from the two existing culverts and convey the runoff to
one of the ponds in the development.
An incomplete erosion and sediment control plan was submitted
with the plat application.
UTILITIES: Sanitary sewer service of sufficient depth and
capacity is readily available to the southwest corner of the
site. An existing 12" PVC sanitary sewer is shown to be utilized
for connections from two proposed 8" sanitary sewer lines and for
connections from services from 9 lots in the southwest corner of
the site.
An existing 12" PVC sanitary sewer is also available to the site
on Prairie Ridge Road in the Country Hollow development. The 12"
sewer is 85 feet south property line of the site and has
sufficient capacity and depth. In order to connect to the 12"
sewer, the developer will be required to remove 85' of existing
8" sanitary sewer on Prairie Ridge Road that does not have
sufficient capacity.
An 8" sanitary sewer and 6" water main will also be available for
connection on the south property line of the site when the
Country Hollow 2nd Addition development is constructed.
According to the utility plan submitted for review, the
development will be constructing approximately 3000' of 12"
sanitary sewer on the site. The 12" diameter pipe is required in
order to handle the flow of the 42 lots in the Hills of
Stonebridge development that is shown to be directed into the
system draining through this site plus the flow from the
undeveloped area to the east in Inver Grove Heights.
Water main service of sufficient pressure and capacity is readily
available along the south side and west side of the development.
The development is proposing to connect to the existing 12" water
main on Dodd Road and loop through the development and connect to
three existing 6" water main stubs that have been provided by the
Country Hollow 1st and 2nd Addition developments.
The 1988 City Water Distribution System Plan shows an 8" trunk
water main be installed through this development from the
existing 12" water main on Dodd Road to the southeast corner of
this development.
As shown on the utility plan submitted for review, sanitary sewer
and water main stubs shall be provided to parcel number 010 -79 in
the northeast corner and along the south property line of the
parcel.
1
STREETS /ACCESS /CIRCULATION: Street access to this site is
readily available from Dodd Road on the west and three streets on
the south that circulate through the Country Hollow 1st and 2nd
Additions to Diffley Road. This development will improve the
access to the Country Hollow development, which has access off
Diffley Road in only one location.
Temporary cul -de -sacs will be required on the ends of all stub
streets.
Staff recommends that the developer work with the southeasterly
adjacent property owner (parcel numbers 012 -76 and 017 -76) to
determine if street access should be provided to the west half of
the parcels from Country View Drive. Due to the steep slopes on
the parcels, street access will be difficult to be obtained from
the east to T.H. #3.
Staff also recommends that the developer work with the
southwesterly adjacent property owner (parcel number 010 -53) to
determine if street access should be extended to the west on
Street M. The steep slopes along Dodd Road will make access
difficult for this parcel from Dodd Road.
The additional traffic generated from this development will
accelerate the need for Dodd Road to be upgraded within the next
2 -3 years. Dodd Road is currently a rural section roadway is on
the Municipal State Aid Street system.
EASEMENTS /RIGHT -OF- WAYS /PERMITS: The development will be
required to provide the appropriate ponding easements for all the
ponds in this development to the required high water level and
storage volume requirements in accordance with the City
Comprehensive Storm Sewer Plan.
Temporary easements will be required for all of the temporary
cul -de -sacs.
A 50' half right -of -way is required for Dodd Road.
All regulatory agency permits shall be acquired within the
appropriate time frame as required by the affected agency.

RE: Coventry Pass Refuge Disposal Site
P.E. Job 88135.4
Gentlemen:
Civil Engineers Land Planners Land Surveyors Landscape Architects
Due to the discovery of a refuge disposal site on the Coventry Pass
parcel, United Mortgage is in the process of determining its impacts on
the entire development and especially on the proposed park in which
the disposal site is located.
Braun Environmental Laboratories, has been hired to investigate the
disposal site limits and area, whether or not it contains hazardous
waste materials, and monitor the ground water for pollutants. As of
this date all of the information gathering and testing is not complete.
Therefore, we are requesting that we be removed from the city council
agenda, and a continuance be granted so all pertinent data can be
collected, analyzed, and a course of action formalized.
If the disposal site is evaluated to be hazardous, the removal and
clean up will take place under strict rules and guide lines of the
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. If the disposal site is inert and
non hazardous, Braun Environmental Laboratories have been asked to
determine its ability to support park facilities, such as playground
equipment, back stops, playing fields etc.. Based on their findings
United Mortgage, is prepared to do whatever is necessary to assure the
long term useability of the property, as a park facility.
We are proceeding as rapidly as possible to complete the testing and
provide reports to all concerned.
Thank you for your help in this matter.
Sincerely,

SUBJECT: REZONING, PRELIMINARY PLAT, VARIANCE
(OAK CHASE 7TH ADDITION)
APPLICANT: ARGUS DEVELOPMENT
LOCATION: SE 1/4 SECTION 27
EXISTING ZONING: AG (AGRICULTURAL)
DATE OF PUBLIC HEARING: FEBRUARY 28, 1989
DATE OF REPORT: FEBRUARY 21, 1989
COMPILED BY: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
APPLICATION SUMMARY: Separate applications have been submitted
requesting a rezoning of ten agricultural acres to an R -1 (Single
Family) district and a Preliminary Plat for the Oak Chase 7th
Addition consisting of 22 lots located along the north side of
Cliff Road between the Oak Chase and ChesMar Additions. The
Variance is for a 550' length cul -de -sac where Code allows 500'.
This single family proposal is in conformance with the City's
most recent Land Use Plan (D -1, 0 -3 units /acre).
EXISTING CONDITIONS /SITE PLAN: Adjacent land uses are: Ravine
Park to the north, R -2 ChesMar Additions to the east and single
family Oak Chase Additions to the west. Currently, there is a
farmstead near the center of this parcel that will be removed
with this development. The well and septic system will need to
be abandoned to City standards.
The site is open grassland except for a stand of trees along the
west side of the northern cul -de -sac. If the cul -de -sac was
shifted to the east or shortened, some of these trees may be
saved. Otherwise, virtually all of them will be destroyed with
the submitted grading plan.
The lots vary in size from 12,003 sq. ft. to 33,477 sq. ft.
averaging 15,117 sq. ft. The overall grass density is 2.2 units
per acre.
PARK ISSUES: At the March 2nd Advisory Parks Recreation
Commission meeting, staff will be reviewing several trail
alternatives connecting to Ravine Park and they will be
recommending a cash land dedication.
GRADING /DRAINAGE /EROSION CONTROL: The preliminary grading plans
submitted as a part of this application proposed cut and fill
areas ranging from 11' to 14', respectively.
Backyard slopes and slopes along roadways are required to adhere
to the City's maximum allowable 3:1 slope criteria.
The existing house and farm buildings are proposed to be removed.
Also, a majority of the trees on the site are proposed to be
removed. The grading plan shows a 50' strip along the north end
of the site that will not be disturbed and the trees in that area
will remain.
The grading plan as submitted does not reflect the grading work
that has occurred along the west side of the site and in the
adjacent Oak Chase 6th Addition. The grading plan should be
revised along the west side of the site to add fill on the first
two lots north of Oak Chase Way in the backyard area to match the
backyards of the adjoining lots to the west. Also, the grading
plan should show a drainage swale with a minimum slope of 1.5%
along the backyards of the lots that abut the Oak Chase 6th
Addition.
The preliminary street grades as shown on the grading plan meet
the City's standards. This development is responsible for
matching the existing grades provided in the adjacent Ches Mar
East 5th and Oak Chase 6th Additions.
Staff recommends that a storm sewer outlet be provided for a
landlocked low area located on the southeast corner of the site.
The area draining to the low area is approximately 2.4 acres.
Staff also recommends that storm sewer stubs be provided to Cliff
Road along the south end of the development. The storm sewer
stubs will serve as the drainage system for Cliff Road to the
west to the high point near Dunberry Lane. The area draining to
the future storm sewer system on Cliff Road is approximately 16.4
acres and the proposed storm sewer system draining northerly
through this development should be designed to handle the flow
from this area.
The existing 18" storm sewer that drains easterly along the lot
line between Lots 4 and 5 of Block 2 of Oak Chase 6th Addition
currently discharges into the drainage swale in the northwest
corner of the proposed development. Staff recommends that the
proposed storm sewer system to be constructed along the west
property line of the development be extended to connect to the
existing 18" storm sewer. The area draining to the existing 18"
storm sewer is approximately 10.3 acres and the flow from this
area should be conveyed all the way to the proposed pond in the
northwest corner of the site.
The proposed pond currently is a low area that drains to the
north through an existing 18" C.M.P. culvert and then through an
eroded ditch to Pond LP -70. Pond LP -70 is a designated ponding
area in the City Comprehensive Storm Sewer Plan. Staff
recommends that a new storm sewer outlet pipe be constructed from
the proposed pond to the north for approximatley 200' to Pond LP-
70.
An incomplete Erosion and Sediment Control Plan was submitted
with this application.
UTILITIES: Sanitary sewer service of sufficient depth and
capacity to serve the proposed development is readily available
in Oak Chase Way to the west.
The 1988 City Comprehensive Sanitary Sewer Plan shows that this
development should be served by sanitary sewer to the east on Oak
Chase Way. However, a sanitary sewer stub was not provided to
this development from the Ches Mar East 4th Addition. The
sanitary sewer line that has been provided to this development
from the Oak Chase 6th Addition to the west has sufficient
capacity to accept the additional 10 acres of flow from this
development.
Water main service of sufficient pressure and capacity is readily
available to the site from two locations. The existing 6" water
main stub on Oak Chase Way to the east is in the high level
pressure zone.
With the water main layout as shown, a pressure reducing station
is needed near connection to the existing 6" water main on
Oak Chase Way to the east.
STREETS /ACCESS /CIRCULATION: Street access to this site is
provided from the Ches Mar East 4th Addition to the east and Oak
Chase 6th Addition to the west.
Due to intersection spacing guidelines adopted by the Dakota
County Highway Department, the County is requiring the dedication
of restricted access along the entire length of CSAH 32 (Cliff
Road).
The design of the cul -de -sac and the horizontal and vertical
alignment of the proposed streets shall conform to City
standards.
The temporary cul -de -sacs on the existing streets ,shall be
removed by this development when Oak Chase Way is constructed.
EASEMENTS /RIGHT -OF- WAY /PERMITS: The development will be required
to provide the appropriate ponding easement for the proposed pond
in the northwest corner of the development.
The proposed right -of -way widths for the streets and cul -de -sacs
are in accordance with City Code requirements. A 75' half right
of -way as proposed meets County guidelines for Cliff Road.
All regulatory agency permits shall be acquired within the
appropriate time frame as required by the affected agency.
epq
FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS: The proposed development has been
previously assessed for only the benefit received from the
sanitary sewer trunk area charge. The following additional
charges are identified in accordance with present policy:
RATE QTY AMT
$660 /lot 22 lots $14,520
.056 /sf 435,600 sf 23,087
6.88/ff 421 ff 2,896
TOTAL $40,503
All final financial obligations will be calculated in accordance
with the final approved site /grading plans, final plat
dimensions, and the rates in effect at the time of the final plat
approval.

CITY OF EAGAN
SUBJECT: COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN AMENDMENT,
REZONING, PRELIMINARY PLAT (STERNS
ADDITION)
APPLICANT: INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT 196
LOCATION: NORTH 1/2 SECTION 25
EXISTING ZONING: A (AGRICULTURAL)
DATE OF PUBLIC HEARING: FEBRUARY 28, 1989
DATE OF REPORT: FEBRUARY 22, 1989
COMPILED BY: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
APPLICATION SUMMARY: Separate applications have been submitted
requesting a rezoning of 16.46 AG (Agricultural) acres to a PF
(Public Facilities) district and a Preliminary Plat consisting of
one lot for an elementary grade school located along the east
side of Dodd Road just south of Diffley Road.
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The project site is designated in the
Comprehensive Land Use Guide Plan for D -II (Mixed Residential, 0-
6 units /acre). The proposed elementary school would be
consistent with a PF (Public Facility school) land use
designation. As such, the project requires a Comprehensive Plan
amendment to change the land use designation from D -II to PF.
This amendment should not adversely impact the surrounding
Residentially- designated land since Public Facility uses are
generally compatible with Residential uses.
EXISTING CONDITIONS /SITE PLAN: The site is surrounded by
Agricultural and R -1 (Single Family) properties on all sides.
The Autumn Ridge subdivision received Preliminary Plat approval
on February 21, however the access issue involving all adjacent
property owners needs to be finalized before any development can
occur. Also at that meeting the school site plan was shown to
the Council as all parcels were being reviewed on an overall
basis and there was concern expressed that the parking lot /drop
off area for the school was much too small for bus movements.
The school district architect will review that concern at the
February 28 APC meeting and will be able to respond to the
building orientation and the number of parking lot stalls
provided.
PROJECT SCHEDULE: The referendum was approved in October 1988
and the architects began schematic design in December. The
design development began on January 23 after approval by the
school board. The district hopes to complete the contract
document stage and bidding stage by May 22; actual grading would
begin as soon as possible after Preliminary Plat approval.
Occupancy is anticipated on June 1, 1990 with the first students
that fall.
q1.
GRADING /DRAINAGE /EROSION CONTROL: The preliminary grading plan
submitted as a part of this application proposes cuts and fills
that range up to approximately 18 to 20 feet, respectively. The
proposed primary excavation areas lay in the south and west areas
of the site. The majority of the excavation material is proposed
to be fill material for the school building and parking area. No
slope easements are required as all proposed sloping is within
property boundaries. All proposed sloping meets the City's
maximum allowable 3 to 1 slope criteria.
The development proposes to drain approximately 95% of the site,
either by surface drainage or pipe to the northwest corner of the
property to a newly created ponding area. The outlet direction
for this proposed pond located on school property is proposed to
drain northeasterly to Pond JP -26 located within the Country
Hollow Development north of Diffley Road. The alternative to the
northeasterly drainage direction would be outletting the pond to
the south across school property, then crossing the proposed plat
of Autumn Ridge picking up additional drainage then draining into
Pond LP -48. The Ponds LP -48 and JP -26 are designated ponding
,areas identified in the City Comprehensive Storm Sewer Plan.
An incomplete erosion and sediment control plan was submitted
as a part of this application.
UTILITIES: Sanitary sewer of adequate capacity and depth to
serve this development is located at the intersection of Dodd
Road and Golden Meadow Road. Approximately 300 feet of the
proposed sanitary sewer would be located in the east boulevard of
Dodd Road. The approximate depth of this construction would be
30 -35 feet. Construction and slope easements would have to be
obtained from the private property owners for this construction.
The proposed sanitary sewer layout proposes to serve only the
school site. The alternative to this would be to extend the
sewer line along the northwest side of the proposed building to
the centerline of the proposed access road then running west and
southeast from that point serving the abutting properties lying
north and east of the proposed school site. Any sewage directed
to the southwest rather than northeast would mean less sewage
lifted through the lift station located in the Country Hollow
Addition north of Diffley Road. The acreage served with this
sewer extension would be approximately 15 acres.
Water main service of sufficient size and pressure is available
in Dodd Road, westerly of this proposed development. It is
proposed to loop a water main through the proposed development to
the south and tie into the proposed Autumn Ridge development for
future extension and looping.
STREETS /ACCESS /CIRCULATION: Public street access to the proposed
site is presently not available from Dodd Road. The construction
of the proposed street lying north and east of the proposed site
will serve as its major access to Dodd Road. The design and
construction of this proposed street is required to conform to
City standards for horizontal and vertical alignment.
EASEMENTS /RIGHT -OF- WAY /PERMITS: Slope easements will be
from the adjacent properties where the proposed grading
the boundaries of the development. The development is
to provide appropriate public utility, street and
easements as required by the City.
A minimum of 80 feet of public right -of -way will be required for
Dodd Road because of the future widening.
All regulatory agency permits shall be acquired within the
appropriate time frame as required by the affected agencies.
FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS: A search of City records show the parcels
included for development at this time have no pending assessments
of record and the following public infrastructure improvement
charges are proposed in accordance with City policy:
