Adjournment MEMO TO: ADVISORY PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION FROM: KEN VRAA, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION DATE: AUGUST 5, 1986 RE: AUGUST 7 COMMISSION MEETING Preceeding the 7:00 p.m. Commission meeting, there will be an OPTIONAL TOUR of park construction activities. Those wishing to make this option tour should meet at the City Hall by 6:15 p.m. We intend to make a quick tour of Trapp Farm Park and Walnut Hill, returning by 7:00 p.m. for a "busy" agenda. After commencing the meeting, approval of the agenda and the minutes; there are eight (8) development proposals for Commission reviewal. WHISPERING WOODS This is in Park Service Section #31 W to be serviced by the Winkler /Jackson Park Dedication on the corner of Slater Road and James Street. Whispering Woods plat proposes fourteen (14) single family homes on the west side of Slater Road. The department is recommending a cash dedication. MARSTAD ADDITION This is a request for four (4) single family lots on two (2) acres south of Cliff Road, and west of Ridgcliff 1st Addition. This four lot addition would be serviced by Ridgecliff Park. The department is recommending a cash dedication. WILDERNESS PONDS This is in park service section #27, which is serviced by the combined neighborhood parks of Oak Chase, Well Site, and Carlson Lake Park. Ravine and Goat Hill Park are also in the service district. This development proposes forty -one (41) lots on approximately twenty (20) acres south of Wilderness Run Road between the Ches /Mar Addition and the Wilderness Run Addition. At the planning Commission meeting on July 29, a resident spoke in opposition to the plan, indicating that there was past action by the Advisory Parks and Recreation Committee in 1973, for a nine (9) acre park in this area. Staff had researched the minutes of the Eagan Park Committee from 1973 through 1974. The minutes of July 9, 1973 reflect a discussion of Mr. Arnold Carlson and Mr. James Frisbie regarding parks dedication. These minutes indicate that Mr. Carlson would dedicate a six (6) acre piece on Pilot Knob Road, and a nine (9) acre site in the "interior of his development for fulfilling "parks dedication" requirements. Later minutes and actions of the Committee and City Council resulted in the present Oak Chase Park, Evergreen Park, and Carlson Lake Park. A private "Homeowners Association" was also deeded the peninsula which extends into east Thomas Lake, as a private park. (This was recently acquired by the City.) There was no additional reference to, nor has the City taken any positive actions through the Comp Guide Plan, or Parks Systems Plan in indicating any future parkland within this park service district. Staff's recommendation, therefore, is to accept a cash dedication requirement. BLACKHAWK ACRES SECOND ADDITION Application has been submitted requesting preliminary plat for thirty -two (32) townhouse units. Development is within Parks Service Section #16, and is west of Blackhawk Road. The development is divided by Robin Lane, and is in an area steep and with difficult topography. There are three issues for the Advisory Commission to consider pertaining to this proposed development: (1) a cash dedication, (2) the requirement for a Tot -Lot, and (3) the necessity of a trail on Robin Lane. Relative to a Tot -Lot, the Commission has typically looked at the number and type of units being proposed, suitability of topography for development of a tot -lot, distance from the nearest park area, etc. Discussions with this developer indicates that he would prefer to provide for a wood chipped pathway through the development and disbursement of some play equipment on both sides of Robin Lane, rather than a single tot -lot. His reason for this is his concern that children would be attracted to the single area, and have to cross Robin Lane, which has the potential for being a busy street. The Commission may wish to consider an alternative. The Second issue is whether there should be a trailway on Robin Lane, as has been suggested. The Trails Plan does not indicate the trail, and with proposed trail routes on Silver Bell, Blackhawk, Highway 13, and Blue Cross /Blue Shield; A question as to a trail is raised. The Commission should reviewthisbeforemaking arecommendation. LEXINGTON 1ST ADDITION This proposal consists of One hundred sixty -eight (168) apartment units on sixteen (16) acres within the Lexington South PUD. The site is east of Lexington Avenue and south of County Road #30. As part of the Lexington South PUD, there shall be no Parks Land Dedication, or cash dedication requirement with this development. However, the Commission should review the proposed development for the requirement of a tot -lot, and trailway on the east side of Lexington Avenue. WILSON ADDITION Proposes four (4) lots on Blackhawk Road, north of the Blue Cross /Blue Shield and the Blackhawk Road intersection. Commission members may recall that a waiver of plat was previously approved on this site, creating two parcels. This preliminary plat now creates the four lot sub division. Staff is recommending a cash dedication requirement for the newly created lots, and that an easement be provided if sufficient room is not available in the road right -of -way for a future trailway development. TOWN CENTER 70 5 TH ADDITION/TACO BELL The above is being proposed by Federal Land Company in the Town Center 70. Town Center 70 is responsible for construction of certain trailways within it's development. It should be the responsibility of this plat to pay the commercial /industrial parks dedication. TOWN CENTER 70 -6 TH ADDITION /CAR CARE CENTER The above is being proposed at the intersection of Pilot Knob Road and Duekwood Drive. It is Staff's recommendation that this plat be subject to a cash dedication requirement, which is consistent with the City's commercial /industrial policy. OLD BUSINESS There are two items under "Old Business The first of which is: recent action taken by the Dakota County Board of Commissioners on the "County Bicycle Trails Plan Commission member Carolyn Thurston and Director of Parks and Recretion, Ken Vraa were at the County Board Meeting on July 29th, and will report on the County Board actions. Enclosed for your review is an article from the newspaper on this particular subject. Staff would also like to update the Advisory Commission on Project #473, the Storm Sewer Project impacting Mooney Lake and Patrick Eagan Park. City Staff and the Consultant Engineer is to be meeting with residents of the Mooney Lake area on Tuesday, August 5th at their request to discuss this proposed trunk storm sewer. Staff will be reporting on the outcome of this meeting, and other facets of this particular project. NEW BUSINESS First item under "New Business" concerns the Briar Hill addition, and a trailway connection. Enclosed in the packet is a memorandum with attachments from Tom Colbert, Director of Public Works, regarding the status of the trailways. Mr. Colbert will be attending the Commission meeting to discuss this issue. Second item under "New Business" pertains to "user fees" for Trapp Farm Park and other facilities. A separate memorandum has been included for Commission's reviewal. Third item under "New Business" is the updating of the Eagan Bicycle Trailways Plan. The original plan was completed in conjunction with the Parks Systems Plan Study in 1982 1983. Due to the pace of the development this graphic /plan has become outdated. Staff is seeking authorization to use Tim Erkkila and Westwood Planning and Engineering, to update the plan graphic, as well as doing a brief reviewal to ensure that the original objectives and trails program reflects today's needs. Staff has estimated that this work can be completed in approximately 15 to 20 hours of consultant time, plus graphic reproduction. PARKS DEVELOPMENT Staff will update the Commission on various activities associated with the Parks Development Program, including the acquisition process for the athletic sites. Staff will have met with Mr. Curry and Church representatives to "firm up" a price for the land in question. Staff will present this, and report a recommendation be made to the City Council regarding the acquisition price. OTHER BUSINESS AND REPORTS There are three items under "Other Business and Reports which include the discussion of the Commission picnic for September and September equipment demonstration prior to the Commission meeting. A "Parks Maintenance Report" outlining activities of the Parks Maintenance Division over the past month and projects scheduled for August will be distributed. Respectf submitted, Ken KV /bls irector of Parks and Recreation MINUTES OF A REGULAR MEETING OF THE ADVISORY PARKS RECREATION COMMISSION EAGAN, MINNESOTA JULY 10, 1986 SUBJECT TO APPROVAL A regular meeting of the Advisory Parks Recreation Commission was called to order by Chairman Martin at 7:05 P.M. in the Eagan Municipal Center lunchroom. This meeting was preceded by a field trip to Chatterton Pond. Members present were: Martin, Alt, Porter, Caponi, Thurston, Masin and Ketcham. Commission members Bertz and Carroll notified staff they would be unable to attend. Commission member Kubik was also absent. Staff members present were: Parks Recreation Director, Ken Vraa; Landscape Architect /Parks Planner, Stephen Sullivan; Planner, Jim Sturm; and Administrative Assistant, Liz Witt. Public Works Director, Tom Colbert, was present to discuss project #473, Trunk Storm Sewer Improvements, which will impact Evergreen Park, Berry Patch Park and the Eagan Municipal Center. AGENDA Director Vraa added project #473 to the agenda under "New Business Chairman Martin added discussion on the Hampton Heights approval process and necessity to review code regulations regarding trails and landscaping. Commission member Caponi moved, Ketcham seconded, to approve the agenda as amended. The motion carried. MINUTES OF JUNE 5, 1986 Commission member Alt moved, Porter seconded, to approve the minutes as presented. All voted in favor. MINUTES OF JUNE 11, 1986 Chairman Martin clarified his motion regarding the trail in Hampton Heights "which shall extend from Yankee Doodle Road to the north boundary of Hampton Heights on the east side of Coachman Road." On a motion by Masin, seconded by Thurston, the minutes were approved as corrected. The motion carried. DEVELOPMENT PROPOSALS 1. CHATTERTON PONDS ROBERT ENGSTROM PROJECT #473 The Commission had informally reviewed the Chatterton Pond proposal at its regular June meeting. The development calls for 47 units on approximately 20 acres. The Director of Parks Recreation suggested the Commission combine this issue with Tom Colbert's discussion of City project #473. Public Works Director, Tom Colbert, explained how the area will be drained, specifically how Mooney Lake and other ponds in the parks will be affected. He noted that Mooney Lake is about 4' over the high water elevation right now and needs an outlet. He said the trunk storm sewer project #473) through the area will alleviate the drainage problem. Mr. Colbert said he will need sewer easements and that this project represents the last segment of the area which drains into the Minnesota River. Mr. Colbert stated that in response to the Director of Parks Recreation, Engineering has reviewed the possibility of a lift station, alternate routes and overland gravity flow. He noted the sewer pipe will have to be put through two ridges and in between the ridges lies a fairly large area at a lower elevation. He said if the water is not piped through both ridges, it will flow to the depressed area and pond in the property' not owned or controlled by the City. Commission member Caponi wondered if somewhere in the area the water could be allowed to flow above ground. He felt the water could be directed to form a waterfall, a beautiful amenity for the area. He said the high ridges, ponds and vegetation make it one of the last places in Eagan where a waterfall could be added to the scenic beauty. He suggested that any possible erosion from the water be corrected through the use of large boulders, gabions or timbers. Mr. Colbert said that overland flow would be very costly. It would necessitate cutting a swale, putting in a substantial amount of rip -rap and other erosion control devices. Further, that the water would only flow during and immediately after rains. He noted there are homes already constructed on some lots so all work will have to be done on unplatted lots. Chairman Martin liked the idea of a waterfall, but felt it might be too expensive at the location Commission member Caponi originally suggested. He wondered if the water could flow above ground between the small pond (JP #8) and McCarthy Lake. Commission Member Caponi urged the Commission to study the possibility. He said that once the water is piped underground, the opportunity is lost. After further discussion, the Commission members were in agreement with the need and concept plan for the storm sewer project. Commission member Caponi moved, Chairm Martin seconded, the following recommendations: 1. The Parks Engineering Departments water flow overland from the most Lake area. 2. The study should include a review fits in the park system. All voted in favor. 2 Adv. Parks Rec. Comm. July 10, 1986 should study the possibility of having feasible point in the Mooney McCarthy of the small pond (JP #8) as to how it Discussion then focused on a trail around Mooney Lake and through the Chatterton Pond Development. The City owns property on the west side of the lake and a trail would have to be extended through part of Lot 25, Chatterton Pond, in order to access the west side of the lake. There were questions as to the feasibility of having a trail along the north side of the lake because of the steep terrain. The consensus of the Commission was to keep the City's option open regarding future trails around Mooney Lake. They decided the City should build the remaining trail segment on the south side of the lake to connect to one coming from Chatterton Pond. Commission member Thurston moved, Alt seconded, the following recommendations: 3. There be trail dedication and construction from the easterly most cul -de- sac to the southeast corner of the development. (That trail will connect to the City constructed segment along the southwest portion of the lake). "4. The developer will be responsible for benching in a trail 2' above the normal pond elevation and provide a trail easement through proposed Lot 24 to that portion of Berry Patch Park now inaccessible. a. Cash dedication for all lots. b. Trailway on Pilot Knob Road. The motion carried unanimously. Adv. Parks Rec. Comm. July 10, 1986 2. PARK FOREST APARTMENTS DESIGN COLLECTIVE This proposal calls for 420 apartment units in six buildings on 30 acres near Blackhawk Glen. The Planning Commission denied the application and it will be on the July 15 Council agenda. There was a brief discussion about the amenities being proposed for the project if it is approved by Council. Chairman Martin moved, Caponi seconded, the recommendation to receive cash dedication, a trail requirement along Federal Drive, and an open recreational area to be determined by staff. The motion carried. 3. TRAILS OF THOMAS LAKE NEW HORIZON HOMES The project consists of 15 duplexes on Outlot C, Thomas Lake Heights, and will be immediately east of a future parks dedication associated with Tom Willmus. There is no park dedication requirement as the development is part of Blackhawk Park P.U.D. Chairman Martin commented that if the preliminary plat changes from this proposal, the Commission would like to review. No action was necessary. 4. COMPRI HOTEL OPUS COPORATION Planner Sturm said the hotel will be a six story, 190 room structure. There will be a small restaurant inside, mostly for use by guests. He noted there will also be a separate restaurant on the plat. Commission member Alt moved, Porter seconded, the recommendation to accept cash dedication at the commercial /industrial rate and require a trail on Pilot Knob Road, if not already in place. All voted in favor. 5. FAWN RIDGE SECOND REVISED This is an informational item only. The proposal was revised from townhouses to single family units. No action was necessary. 6. JULY PROPOSALS JIM STURM Planner Sturm said there is a variety of items on the July Planning agenda including 20 acres of single family housing off Oak Chase Road, Whispering Woods Development off Slaters Road near Cinnamon Ridge, and a possible apartment development off Lexington near Diffley Road. OLD BUSINESS 1. DAKOTA COUNTY BIKEWAY DAKOTA COUNTY BOARD HEARING JULY 29 Director Vraa announced he has received notice of a July 29th hearing by the County Commission. He asked Commission members for their comments on the 3 proposed trail plan. Chairman Martin suggested the with their comments. Director Vraa was directed Chairman Martin's signature. Vice -chair Thurston attend the hearing on behalf of the Commission. On a motion by Masin, seconded by Caponi, the Commission recommended that the architect design a permanent structure for park shelters with flexibility for individual site needs. The directive will include both warming houses and open shelter buildings. The motion carried. Adv. Parks Rec. Comm. July 10, 1986 Commission send a letter to write the letter for and Director Vraa will NEW BUSINESS 1. PARK SHELTERS PRELIMINARY REPORT Director Vraa identified eight temporary shelters in various parks which are in very poor condition. Six of the structures are warming houses and the other two are open shelters. He noted that the Well Site warming houses need immediate attention. He asked the Commission to decide on a process for reviewing such structures. He cautioned that building replacement is not the only answer and said the use pattern for a particular park will suggest what type facility the park should have. Suggested options for replacement structures include prefab concrete, wood, prefab wood and rental. Chairman Martin said it was not feasible for the Vo -Tech to construct the buildings. He wondered if the City could again construct portable buildings. Director Vraa said that staff had reviewed that option and found it to be costly. Commission member Thurston felt that most of the options presented would not project the image the City would like to project. She felt that the wood frame structure is the most feasible and that the Commission has already done enough review, as a result of the current construction program, to know. Commission member Porter thought the City should utilize rental trailers as a phasing approach until a building is constructed. He noted that the City can't afford to build everything. He said further that if the rental structure starts to look tacky, it can be immediately replaced. Member Ketcham said that rental can eat up a lot of money in five or six years and you have nothing to show for it. Commission member Caponi suggested the architect be commissioned to design a "smaller" shelter without restrooms for the Commission to review. He said changes could be made before building any structures. There can be variations of the building for each location. Director Vraa asked if the Commission was favorable to using rental trailers. Members Porter and Caponi said the trailers could be used while the permanent shelter was being constructed, but all opposed the trailers as long term solutions. 2. PARK PROPOSAL PREVIEW Director Vraa identified eight parcels which might serve as possible park sites: 1. 43 acres near Cliff Dodd Road 2. A parcel near Cliff Beacon Hill Road 3. Near Lemay Lake I -35E 4. Near Pilot Knob Rd. Deerwood 5. Near Yankee Doodle and Surrey Heights Road 4 6. Near Blackhawk Lake 7. Near Johnny Cake and Highline Trail 8. Near Crestridge Lane north of Fish Lake PARKS DEVELOPMENT Adv. Parks Rec. Comm. July 10, 1986 The Commission agreed that a park was needed in the southwest corner by the lake in the 43 -acre parcel 1 (Peterson) near Cliff and Dodd. They also agreed to acquiring park dedication from the Cliff /Beacon Hill site 2 to make a neighborhood park out of Walden Pa'k. Chairman Martin says there should be a south entrance to Blackhawk Park and directed Parks Director Vraa to do some more talking with Ed Dunn. The Commission agreed to place possible purchase of the Waldron property north of Blackhawk Lake on hold, but to ask what the purchase price would be. Dire Vraa was asked to get more information about the Crestridge Lane parcel 1. STATUS REPORT DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES Parks Planner Sullivan said there are four active construction contracts on nine parks. The parking lots are being finished at Ridgecliff and Rahn Parks. The lighting at Goat Hill Park should be completed in a couple of weeks. Work has started on the pavilion and warming house at Trapp Farm Park. Grading has been completed at four parks with paving, sodding and seeding left to be done. Play structures have been ordered for Walnut Hill and O'Leary Parks and one will be ordered for Woodhaven. Yet to come are play structures for Pilot Knob and Cedar Pond. The lighting contract for Trapp Farm Park has not been let. He hopes the trail contract will be let in time to get trails done this year. 2. STATUS REPORT LAND ACQUISITION Director Vraa reported that the City Council requested a report of all parcels viewed as possible athletic sites with reasons why they were not further considered. The Council is very supportive of the acquisition of more athletic sites and wanted more information before they approved the purchase of the Barr property. Director Vraa will present the report at the July 15 Council meeting. Director Vraa reported to the Commission that the church owner of land near the Northview Athletic complex has contacted him and wants to sell that land to the City. A letter is expected soon. City ownership of that site will allow expansion of the Northview Athletic Fields as planned. OTHER BUSINESS REPORTS 1. CITY COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE PLAN Director Vraa said he had worked with Planning Consultant, John Voss, to update the parks section of the plan. The Council and Planning Commission were meeting July 10 to review the revised plan. 2. TRAPP FARM PARK WATER ELEVATION Director Vraa stated that the Council had approved the storm sewer construction project which would allow the water elevation at Trapp Farm to drop. 3. HORSE RIDING REQUEST Director Vraa had been asked if horse riding was an approved activity along the pipeline easement near Beacon Hill. Commission member Thurston thought horse riding was only allowed and designated in Patrick Eagan Park. The Commission will review the regulations when they receive copies of the City Code. ROUND TABLE 1. Chairman Martin wanted to know what the process is for developers who come to the City with their proposals. After a brief explanation, Director Vraa said he will ask City Planner, Dale Runkle, to attend the next meeting to go over the process. An outline of the process and required forms will be included in the Commission packet. Chairman Martin said he did not want to see another Hampton Heights where the preliminary plat was approved and a park recommendation given only to have further plat changes which the Commission did not have an opportunity to review. 2. Chairman Martin wanted to be assured that copies of the City Code would be made available, particularly so the Commission could document the development process. 3. When asked about the status of the Kehne House, Director Vraa said the house is now in good shape. There are new renters and they seem to be reliable and interested in the upkeep of the house. 4. Chairman Martin asked Commission members to think about the annual picnic. He said that prices might have to be raised. The item will be on the August agenda. 5. Commission member Porter asked how often the trails are cleaned. He noted there are a couple of spots along Lexington where debris has resulted from washouts. Parks Director Vraa said the trails would be checked and bad spots cleaned up and erosion control enforced. ADJOURNMENT Commission member Ketcham moved, seconded by Porter, that the meeting be adjourned. Time of adjournment was 10:30 P.M. Dated: Advisory Parks Recreation Secretary r. MEMO TO: PARKS AND RECREATION ADVISORY COMMISSION FROM: JOHN VONDELINDE, SUPERINTENDENT OF PARKS DATE: AUGUST 6, 1986 RE: PARK MAINTENANCE /FORESTRY UPDATE The purpose of this memo is to provide you with a progress report on Parks Maintenance and Forestry activities, during the month of July, and to highlight major work tasks planned for August. JULY ACCOMPLISHMENTS -PARKS DEPARTMENT Seasonal employees: This year's crew of seasonal employees is working out extremely well. There have been many fine compliments from the public regarding the quality of this year's mowing program. In fact, even members of our own full time maintenance staff, have indicated that this year's mowing crew may be the best yet. One reason for the success of this year's seasonal maintenance crew may be in part due to a "Seasonal Employee Workshop which was held the first week in June. This workshop included a: video tape on public relations /service, presentations from our director, park planner and recreation supervisor, and the review of a "Seasonal Employee Handbook" covering such areas as: rules and regulations, job performance, work rules, and public relations. A new program of mid season evaluations was also implemented for this year's seasonal staff. RESTITUTION PROGRAM At the writing of this memo, the Dakota County Restitution Program has completely finished it's summer project of repainting all of our hockey rinks and warming houses, within the City parks system. The rinks were completed about one week ahead of schedule. This will allow our department to utilize the program for the remaining time in tree planting and trail clearing activities. A two -week extension of the program through mid August is also being discussed. Eagan was fortunate in being the sole benefactor of the Restitution Program this summer. All told, about 2,500 hours of "free" maintenance labor was made available through this program. In other areas, individual restitution workers have been utilized in a variety of parks maintenance tasks. For instance, in August, a restitution worker has been scheduled to repaint each of the park entrance signs, within the system. This particular court referred volunteer is a professional sign maker by trade, and offers twenty hours of community service work. TWIN CITIES TREE TRUST The Twin Cities Tree Trust work crew continued to make steady progress on the installation of the tie -wall at Cedar Pond Park. About 50% of the wall is currently in place. It appears that a two -week extension of the program will be necessary to complete the project. The Tree Trust Program has scheduled a second work crew to assist with the completion of the project by mid August. Hopefully, a restitution worker can be found to stain the tie -wall later this fall. ARCHERY WALL The archery range at Walnut Hill Community Park was completed in July. The range offers five shooting lanes, with distances of up to forty yards. Judging from the amount of use already, it appears that the range will have to be ready for full use by mid August. Currently, there are three target bales available for public use. Based on my inspections of other public archery ranges in the Twin Cities area, it appears that the Walnut Hill Range is probably one of the more aesthetic and functional public ranges available. BENCH INSTALLATIONS Seven new park benches were installed in Cinnamon Ridge, County Home Heights, Evergreen, Thomas Lake, and Ridgecliff Parks. This brings the total number of bench installations this year to twenty- three. Our intent is to install about a dozen more this fall. This would bring the total to thirty -five. Fifteen benches will be reserved for installation in the new parks in 1987. RAHN TENNIS LIGHTING Tennis lighting at the Rahn Tennis Courts was revamped with the installation of new light fixtures and protective guards. There were recurring problems with the old light system, of broken lenses from rock throwing and other vandalism. The new fixtures offer a hardened glass lense and protective wire mesh cover, which should help to reduce or eliminate the problems with vandalism. The replacement of tennis lighting at Rahn Park would greatly enhance the usability of the courts for evening use. Prior to our revamping of the system, only four of the sixteen fixtures were actually functioning. ATHLETIC FIELDS Layout and striping of late summer and fall soccer fields was completed in July. The softball season at Northview Park is slated to end on Sunday, August 10, with culmination of the final tournament. PLAY STRUCTURE INSTALLATIONS Installation of the play structure at Evergreen Park was completed in early July. The play structure at Cinnamon Ridge was completed in late July, including a timber perimeter and pea rock base. There were plenty of neighborhood tots supervising the installation! TURF MAINTENANCE The mowing of our parks continued on a normal basis. Efforts have been made to upgrade the mowing crews standards to provide a better job of mowing and trimming in our parks. Generally, I think that the mowing crew has done a very good job. The Boulevard Maintenance Program has also proven to be very successful. John Von Bank of our seasonal staff is responsible for the boulevard program. John is capable of completing the entire twenty -six mile route in a two -week period. TENNIS COURT INSPECTIONS A new program of tennis court inspections /repairs was implemented in early June. Inspections and repairs are now made to our tennis courts on a routine basis. Gary Skogstad, of our full time staff, is responsible for the program. Gary has done a very good job, and I believe this is reflected in the quality of our tennis courts this summer. EQUIPMENT ACQUISITIONS In June our department took delivery on two new vehicles, including a one -half ton pick -up truck and trailer for the boulevard maintenance program, and a three quarter 4X4 truck for general maintenance. Our department also purchased a diesel groundsmaster mower for boulevard maintenance. Acquisition of power tools included a new drill press, band -saw, and power -vac. BASKETBALL COURTS In July new nets were installed on all basketball courts within the system. PICNIC KITS /PROGRAM For many years our department has been furnishing picnic kits to residents within the City. Under the old program our department was responsible for the delivery and pick -up of volleyball standards to these residents on a weekly basis. In July all of the volleyball posts were converted to a collapsible system. Consequently, a resident can now pick -up a volleyball net with the rest of the picnic kit. This will save our maintenance staff about four hours per week of delivery and pick -up. PICNIC TABLES Twelve new picnic tables were constructed in July. Delivery was also taken on sixty new frames for construction in August and September. COMPOST SITE The Parks and Forestry Departments have been taking an active roll in management of the City compost site this summer. The Parks Department has assumed responsibility for turning the compost piles on a weekly basis to ensure maximum decomposition of the materials. The Forestry Department has been responsible for chipping brush at the site. Our experience this summer is that one or two days each week is required each week to manage the brush at the compost site. Unfortunately this is taking some time away from the regular forestry department activities in the parks system. This issue has been addressed with the City Administrative Staff with respect to Staff compliments in 1987. My proposal is that a second seasonal staff person be budgeted in the Forestry Department to provide a more effective chipping program. FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION Once again, this year, our department assumed several responsibilities for setting up for the July 4th Celebration at Rahn Park. This included delivery of tables, bandstand, security fence, signs, and the coordination of portable restrooms. The celebration went off without too much difficulty. AUGUST WORK PLAN PARKS DEPARTMENT The following list represents the priority work program of the Parks Maintenance Division in the month of August. o Play structure inspection form: a new inspection program will be implemented for the park play structures. The objectives of the program are to ensure more regular and thorough repairs to our equipment and to reduce the City's liability with respect to potential injuries. o All of the park signs in the system will be painted by a restitution worker in August. o Security lights: An agreement has been reached with Dakota Electric for the installation of concrete pole security lights in several of the City parks. Dakota Electric is expected to begin their work in August. o Twin Cities Tree Trust: Installation of the tie -wall will be continued at Cedar Pond Park. o Fishing Docks: Portable fishing docks have been ordered for Fish Lake and Trapp Farm Parks. Delivery is expected in early August with early installation of the dock at Fish Lake to follow. o Oak Chase Park: The old shelter building at Oak Chase Park will be burned to the ground by the City Fire Department in late August or early September. o Play Structures: Installation is expected to begin on the new play structures at Walnut Hill and O'Leary Parks. o Infield Preparation: Work will begin in August at Rahn Park, Goat. Hill Park, and Walnut Hill Park. Our hope is to have these fields ready by the end of this fall for early use next spring. o Park Benches: Benches will be installed at the following locations in August: Cedar Pond Park, Trapp Farm Park, Walnut Hill Park, and Lexington Park. o Entrance Sign: Trapp Farm Park: Department Staff expects to begin construction of an entrance sign at Trapp Farm Park in August. 5 JULY ACCOMPLISHMENTS FORESTRY DEPARTMENT PRUNING The pruning of trees and shrubs was completed at most of the parks within the system. CEDAR POND PARS: The planting box around the flag pole at Cedar Pond Park was replanted with shrubbery. The old plant materials had over matured and could no longer be maintained. In conjunction with this project an old electrical outlet box was also relocated within the planting box to make it less visible. FISH LAKE PARK The clearing of box elders on the west side of the parking lot was completed in July. This area will be used in the future as a picnic area and open play area. RAHN PARK Forestry Staff removed the overgrown evergreen shrubs around the Rahn Park shelter building. These shrubs had grown "out of control" and could no longer be maintained. Future plans this fall call for the installation of a new planting bed and shrubbery. TRAPP FARM PARK In preparation of the fall opening of this new park facility, the Forestry Staff committed several days to removal of dead elm trees, and undesirable trees. Final touch -up work will be required prior to the fall opening. WALNUT HILL PARK Forestry and Maintenance Staff completed the clearing of underbrush from the hillside adjacent to the new archery range. The objectives of this project were to (1) to provide a transitional forested area between the archery range and the wooded hillside, and (2) make it easier for archers to find lost arrows. WOODHAVEN PARK Pruning of trails within Woodhaven Park was completed. These trails were heavily overgrown making hiking or equipment use difficult. Forestry Staff also coorinated with the Summer Restitution Program in the planting of approximately twenty new trees around the playstructure and tennis courts. 6 COMPOST PROGRAM Activities in the management of the City compost site continued on a weekly basis. Currently, Forestry Staff is committing one to two days per week in the chipping of brush at the compost site. The program has proven to be more successful than originally anticipated. City residents are hauling in a good deal of brush and branches during the Saturday drop off date. As mentioned previously, Staff is recommending the addition of a second seasonal forestry aide in 1987 to provide better management of the compost site, and to increase the availability of forestry staff for parks forestry and landscape management. Forestry Staff also completed the planting of approximately twelve Evergreen and deciduous trees at the compost site to provide a measure of site screening and beautification. The cost of this item was absorbed by the County's Landfill Abatement Program. Equipment acquisitions: In late July a new nursery digging attachment was purchased for use with the new bobcat. This item should greatly speed our removal of small shrubs and trees from City nurseries, and provide another viable option for digging planting holes for smaller stock. The net result should be a great savings in labor intensive time. AUGUST WORK PLAN FORESTRY DEPARTMENT o Forestry related work in the month of August will concentrate in two major areas: (1) landscape plantings: It is hoped that work can begin on the Phase I Landscape Plan at Trapp Farm Park by mid August. Landscape plantings are also planned for Country Home Park, Lexington Park, and the Park Shelter Building at Rahn Park. (2) Pruning of major internal trails is planned for August. Affected parks include: Blackhawk, Patrick Eagan, and the Highline Trail. Some assistance from the seasonal restitutional program is likely. o Brush chipping within the parks is a routine item, which will continue through the month of August. SUMMARY I trust that the above activity report and work plan has given you a good discription of activities in the parks and forestry departments. If you have any particular comments, questions, or suggestions, I would be happy to hear from you. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance. The next report on park activities will be provided at the October Parks Commission meeting. That report will provide a briefing on accomplishments during the month of September, and an outline of planned activities for October.

The Comprehensive Guide Plan designates this area as R -2 (mixed residential); therefore, an Amendment will be necessary. applicant has submitted an overall site 40 -acre Whispering Woods Additions. The this overall acreage is zoned agricul- the north and east contain sigle family portion of Burnsville forms the western The density of this 3rd Addition will be 2.5 units /acre, well within the permitted 1 -3 units /acre allowed in R -1 districts. The 3rd Addition has been revised so the street to the west lines up with Slater Court. Other than this change, the overall plan should develop as proposed, with minor changes only. VARIANCES: All lots exceed the 12,000 S.F. requirement and the 50' minimum curb width. Due to the following—setback variances, not all lots will meet the 85' width at the setback lines. However, the site is heavily wooded and the variances are necessary to retain hardwood trees and remain consistent with previously approved setbacks along Slater Rd. yard setbacks along Slater Rd. from 50' 30' (Lots 1, Block 1 and Lots 1, 2, 3 Block 2) yard setbacks from 30' to 20' on Lots 1 -8 Block 2. yard setbacks on the interior street from 30' to 20'.. APC July 29, 1986 Whispering Woods 3rd Addition Page 2 GRADING /DRAINAGE: Nearly all drainage runoff generated from this development is being directed to a ponding area along the westerly boundary of this plot which will eventually drain into the Black Dog Watershed District. The balance of the drainage runoff will drain towards Slaters Road. Staff will require that this plat be reviewed by the Black Dog Watershed District, prior to final plat approval. The City will require that the necessary drainage easements be provided for the proposed ponding area up to an elevation required to provide the necessary storm water storage for said ponding area. UTILITIES: Sanitary sewer and watermain of sufficient size, capacity and depth is available in Slaters Road to adequately service all proposed lots. STREETS: Slaters Road borders the east side of this proposed plat to provide street access to this development. RIGHT -OF- WAY /EASEMENTS: The developer shall dedicate all easements required by Code. All other internal drainage and utility easements shall be dedicated as required by City staff upon the review of final detailed plans. The City will require a temporary cul -de -sac easement be dedicated at the westerly end of east west street. The developer shall work with the City staff and name the streets for this plat. ASSESSMENTS: Trunk area sanitary sewer and water have been previously assessed on the land proposed to be developed under this subdivision. Staff found that trunk storm sewer has not been previously assessed. Therefore, this development will be responsible for the trunk area storm sewer assessment at the rate in effect at the time of final platting. Using the 1986 rate, this amounts to $10,130.00, based upon preliminary estimated square footage of 202,600 S.F. X $0.05 $10,130.00. The above assessment can be paid at the time of final platting or spread over 15 years at the assessment rate determined by the latest bond sale. All other costs resulting from the installation of internal public streets and utilities for this development will be the sole responsibility of this development. Representatives of the Engineering Division will be available to discuss these concerns in further detail with the Planning Commission or City Council at the appropriate meetings for formal review and approval. APC July 29, 1986 Whispering Woods 3rd Addition Page 3 CONDITIONS: 1. All internal right -of -way shall be a minimum of 60' in width. 2. All grading, street and utility construction shall be in conformance with current City engineering design standards. 3. All drainage, utility and ponding easements shall be dedicated with the final plat of sufficient size to accommodate all public utilities and ponds. 4. This development shall assume all costs associated with the installation of streets and utilities to service this subdivision. In addition, it shall be responsible for the additional trunk area storm sewer assessments associated with this single family development. 5. Park dedication fees and park issues be resolved prior to final plat approval. 6. All standard plat conditions shall be adhered to. 7. This development shall be responsible for obtaining the necessary permits /approvals from MPCA, MWCC, Minnesota Department of Health and the Black Dog Watershed District. 8.

APPLICATION: An application has been submitted, requesting a preliminary plat consisting of 4 single family lots on two acres, south of Cliff Road and just west of the Ridgecliffe First Addition. If the preliminary plat is approved with conditions acceptable to both the applicant and the City, a rezoning to R -1 will be necessary prior to the final plat submission. The Comprehensive Guide Plan designates this parcel as R -1 (single family) ZONING /SITE PLAN: A similar 2 acre parcel containing one home is to the west. The Ridgecliffe 1st Addition (R -1) borders to the south and east. Cliff Road forms the northern property line. Currently, the existing single family home is serviced from a driveway connecting to Cliff Road. The applicant is requesting a temporary driveway connection from Nokia Way to the east to service these lots (or just one S.F. lot to the south). Code requires public street access at the time of platting This will eventually eliminate any additional single family driveways onto Cliff Road. Lots 1 and 2 of block 1 will both contain 18,560 S.F., with the existing home on lot 2. All building setbacks exceed Code requirements. Lots 1 and 2 of block 2 each contain 13,780 S.F. Lot 1, block 1 has 85' frontage on Cliff Road but only 77' on the proposed road extension right -of -way. This is necessary in order to keep straight property lines and for setback conformance for the existing home. COMMENTS: The applicant does not want the- Nokia Road extension at this time. A temporary driveway connection to a single home site on the southern 1/2 of the site would be the alternative to the 4 lot /public street proposal. The site is heavily wooded and the retaining wall at the temporary end of Nokia Way will need to be removed for either alternative. APC JULY 29, 1986 MARSTAD ADDITION PAGE 2 SPECIAL NOTE The staff has reviewed this proposed development with the applicant several times informing him of City standards and requirements for development, i.e. sewer, water and paved streets, which the applicant does not intend to provide. When the Ridgecliffe Addition was developed, the overall Master Development Plan provided for the continuation of Nokia Way from its present dead -end condition just east of this development to the existing stub near Lenore Lane, as shown on the attached overall site plan. Any proposed development providing anything less than the standard street and utility continuation through the applicant's proposed plat should not be approved due to hardships and expenses that will be incurred to the then existing future property owners, thereby possibly eliminating the opportunity for this future road connection which is essential to proper traffic circulation and the elimination of the existing excessively long dead -end cul -de -sac of Nokia Way. However, if staff's recommendation for denial is not concurred with, the following items of concern and conditions should be given serious consideration. GRADING /DRAINAGE: The existing and proposed future drainage from this development will be directed to the existing low drainage basin west of this development. A storm sewer outlet should be provided from this wetland to provide future storm water elevation control. The public right -of -way for Nokia Way should be graded to its proposed future cross section for standard width street construction, boulevards and minimum 3:1 side slopes. If this development wishes to preserve existing vegetation, it should be required to construct the required retaining walls along the right -of -way line. STREETS: As discussed previously, Nokia Way has always been intended to continue westerly for its ultimate connection with the existing stub near Lenore Lane. The existing driveway access from Cliff Road should be eliminated and reconstructed providing access from Nokia Way. UTILITIES: Similar to the extension of the street, the existing water main at the west end of Nokia is intended to be looped through this subdivision to the existing stub near Lenore Lane. This will provide adequate pressure and supply to service these four newly created lots. Sanitary sewer of sufficient size, depth and capacity is available from the Ridgecliffe Addition at the west end of Nokia via a westerly extension through this proposed subdivision. All utilities should be planned to extend to the west line of this proposed development for future extension to service the adjacent properties. EASEMENTS /RIGHTS -OF -WAY: Sufficient right -of -way should be dedicated for Cliff Road to incorporate the existing bituminous walkway along the south side of Cliff Road. A 60' standard right -of -way shall be dedicated for the extension of Nokia Way APC JULY 29, 1986 MARSTAD ADDITION PAGE 3 through this development. Temporary construction /slope easements shall be acquired from the adjacent properties within the Ridgecliffe Addition if construction cannot be contained within existing public right -of -way. Additional utility easements shall be acquired as necessary to provide for the storm sewer outlet for the drainage basin to the west. ASSESSMENTS: Trunk area sanitary sewer and water have been previously assessed under Project 234. Trunk area storm sewer assessment shall be required with the development of this subdivision at the rates in effect at the time of final plat approval. In addition, all costs associated with the construction and extension of streets and utilities necessary to service this subdivision shall be the sole responsibility of this development. The estimated assessment obligation for trunk area storm sewer is defined as follows: Trunk Area Storm Sewer 64,600 s.f. $0.05 /s.f. $3,230 PERMITS /PLAN APPROVAL: Detailed plans and specifications for the extension of any public street or utility shall be reviewed and approved by staff prior to final plat approval. The required permits from the MPCA, MWCC and Dept of Health for the extension of sanitary sewer and water main shall be obtained prior to releasing the plat for recording. Representatives of the Engineering Division will be available to discuss the needs for this development to conform to City standards and this development's lack of conformance to the long range planning for development of these remaining unplatted parcels. APC JULY 29, 1986 MARSTAD ADDITION PAGE 4 CONDITIONS: 1. Future right -of -way for the extension of Nokia Way shall be graded to its full width to City standards with adequate side slopes or retaining walls. 2. All permits required by regulatory agencies shall be acquired prior to release of plat for recording at the County. 3. The existing driveway from Cliff Road shall be eliminated and reconstructed to provide access from Nokia Way. 4. A storm sewer outlet for the existing drainage basin to the west shall be provided as a requirement of this development approval. 5. If any portion of the required street or utility extensions are not constructed with this development, it shall assume its future assessment obligations at the rates in effect at the time of final plat approval. 6. Sufficient right -of -way shall be dedicated for Cliff Road to incorporate the existing trailway on the south side of Cliff Road. Also, a 60' right -of -way shall be dedicated for the extension of Nokia Way. 7. All required easements necessary for side slope, utility, street and /or storm sewer construction from adjacent property shall be acquired prior to final plat approval. 8. This development shall assume its assessment obligation for trunk area storm sewer assessment at the rates in effect at the time of final plat approval. 9. This development shall comply with all applicable engineering conditions. 10. All lots be serviced from Nokia Way extension 11. All standard platting conditions shall be adhered to 12. A rezoning from A (agricultural) to R -1 (single family) shall be required and approved prior to final plat submission. 13. If all four lots are approved, the existing home (Lot 2, Block 1), shall connect a driveway to the Nokia Way extension and Lot 1, Block 1 shall do the same. The existing entry drive from Cliff Rd shall not be used to Lot 1, Block 1. 14. This plat shall be subject to a cash parks dedication fee. j`ii IA H PK PARK {NNE K 12 -SALEM K C R 13- LICNS1DNE PT MD R M MARQUIS PT ANA PT IS- TRAVERSE R NESTEAD R IS- SDRR[L n SAGE PT 17 NIRTA IT E- 10DEN ►T N NDIITEN fT j arain ra BE Er, Irk o m R .fa e Fl 6� �a °A.7 3 a T .�F a PA!. well F :r a NIMeJ j_ wigait.t• Rao yr+ 1 WI 3. 11111 I N� IIII 431 11171 '�ti 'f..-- 3 X' Y 1 yll /47 1 11 i' /1 -T� N. 1 -470 ti 11 1‘0 t 33.14'33•[ -•s 33 tr n.•--r 33...3.3 11•03•• 33. t X 11. 143:.. p•lat W l-• •f 3!33 1•et3• 33. 333...1 333.• Ism mot •3 f•• •••!knot 8■•••f3 31311 It 33 .4 3 ••31. 114.33 fret. t 3133 Y 371.33 fee.

APPLICATIONS: Two separate applications have been submitted requesting a rezoning from A (agricultural) •to R -1 (single family) and a preliminary plat consisting of 41 lots on 20.7 acres south of Wilderness Run Road in Section 27. ZONING AND LAND USE: The Comprehensive Guide Plan designates this site as R -1 (single family). The 41 lots give the project an overall density of 1.98 units/acre. The average lot size is approximately 19,000 S.F. and the minimum is 12,000 S.F. Two existing homes will have no building setback problems. Variances to allow street frontage of 15 feet for lots 5 and 6 of block 2 will be necessary. Code requires a 50' minimum at the curb line. Due to the large City ponding area, this is the only way the area can be developed. The lots will contain 90,300 S.F. and 29,000 S.F. respectively. All other lots meet the 85' width required at the setback line. This plat is surrounded by single family developments on the north, east and west. Ches Mar 3rd and 4th Additions (R -3) are to the south. Ches Mar Drive will be extended to the north and connect with Wilderness Curve. This connection will form the only north /south through street in the area and will allow residents the option of going to Wilderness Run Road or Cliff Road. The Wilderness Curve cul -de -sac will bend to the east and will be longer than the 500' maximum length permitted by Code. However, this 800' road will service only 23 home COMMENTS: The site has scattered hardwood especially on the hillside falling to the City pond. Front yard variances of 10' (to 20') may be desired for lots on the Wilderness Curve cul -de -sac due to the severe drop to the pond. APC JULY 29, 1986 WILDERNESS PONDS PAGE 2 GRADING /DRAINAGE: Staff has reviewed the preliminary grading plans submitted by this applicant: However staff does have a few recommendations which the applicant should incorporate into his final grading plan. Staff recommends that the applicant provide overland emergency drainage ways at the low points in the roadway. This can be accomplished by grading a slight swale down the property lines in the area of the roadway low points. The city will require that final contours be placed at 2' intervals on the plans along with the proposed erosion control. These items will be reviewed upon receiving updated plans. Also indicate proposed ponding easements on the grading plan. This proposed development lies within two different drainage districts, as indicated on Figure No. 1. Currently pond L.P. 55 is experiencing high water problems because it has no positive gravity outlet. The city has authorized a storm sewer project to resolve this problem under city project No. 448. But this project cannot proceed until this developer establishes final lot lines for the placement of said storm sewer. UTILITIES: Sanitary sewer of sufficient size, capacity and depth is immediately available to serve this development. Internal extensions of the sanitary sewer lateral system will adequately service all proposed lots. Watermain of sufficient size and capacity is located in Ches Mar Drive and Wilderness Run Drive. This development will provide a looped system between the Ches Mar 3rd and Wilderness Run 3rd Additions. STREETS /CIRCULATION: Due to the existing boundaries; there is no other feasible alternative for development of this property without a variance to the city's maximum cul -de -sac length ordinance (500') for Wilderness Curve, which is proposed to be approximately 900 long. Staff strongly recommends that this proposed development provide for a through traffic pattern as indicated on this proposed.plat, between Ches Mar Third Addition and the Wilderness Run 3rd Addition plats. Staff feels that with the curved nature of this street and the 90 degree connection at the intersection of Wilderness Curve and Ches Mar Drive will minimize the use of this street as a through street, except for local homeowners. However, it will provide for better service for fire and emergency vehicles in the area. Fire and emergency vehicles would have to travel approximately 1 1/2 miles further to service this area without said through street. Staff recommends that a 20' portion of Wilderness Run Curve be vacated at the southeast corner of Wilderness Drive and Wilderness Run Curve. This is excess right -of -way that the City will not need. .:ONDITIONS: R. APC JULY 29, 1986 WILDERNESS PONDS PAGE 3 EASEMENTS /RIGHT -OF -WAY: Sufficient drainage and ponding easements should be dedicated for the internal drainage basins adequate to protect the necessary ponding storage volume requirements and interconnecting storm sewer systems. The configuration of these drainage easements will be determined upon submission of final detailed plans for review by the Engineering Division. Wilderness Curve right -of -way is proposed to be 50' in width which does not meet the standard street width requirements of 60'. Staff can support the 50' right -of -way as proposed because of the severe topography on both sides of the said Wilderness Curve. All other internal drainage and utility easements shall be dedicated as required by City ordinance and /or final detail plan submittal and reviewed by City staff. ASSESSMENTS: Trunk area sanitary sewer and trunk area water have been previously assessed. Trunk area storm sewer is proposed to be assessed under project 448. The final assessment amount will be determined based upon final plat area calculations and ponding credits. 1. A variance shall be granted for the length of cul -de -sac street construction for Wilderness Curve. 2. All grading, street and utility construction shall be in conformance with current City engineering design standards. 3. All drainage, utility and ponding easements shall be dedicated with the final plat of sufficient size to accomodate all public utilities and ponding areas. 4. This development shall assume all costs associated with the installation of streets and utilities to service this subdivision. 5. Park dedication fees be resolved prior to final plat. 6. All standard plat conditions shall be adhered to. 7. The excessportion of Wilderness Curve at the southeast quadrant of Wilderness Curve and Wilderness Run Drive shall be vacated in conjunction with final plat approval. This development shall dedicate 60' right -of -ways for public streets, except for Wilderness Curve, east of Ches Mar Drive. APC JULY 29, 1986 WILDERNESS PONDS PAGE 4 9.

The site is zoned R -3 and the Comprehensive Guide Plan also designates this parcel R -3. ZONING LAND USE: The Townview 1st Addition town homes are to the east and south of this site. Single family homes in Blackhawk Acres are to the east and an R -4 district is to the north. The 32 units give the project an overall density of 5.3 units /acre. Code allows 6 -12 units /acre in R -3 districts. All proposed buildings and parking areas meet City setback requirements. The William Brothers Pipeline easement crosses the site in a SW to NE manner. No building is proposed in this area but grading has been indicated and permission will be required to do so. City approval of grading and retaining wall construction in a sanitary sewer easement will also be necessary. SITE PLANNING /LANDSCAPING: This project will be built in two phases. Phase One will consist of 16 units (3 clusters) east of Robin Ln. and will be serviced by three separate entry drives. Entry drives in Phase Two match these and the circulation should work nicely. All units will have Robin Ln. addresses. All units have two bedrooms, optional fireplaces and laundry facilities and double car garages. Two additional parking spaces will be designated in front of the garages for guest parking. No other parking is provided. The exterior will have gabled roofs with horizontal lap siding and a brick base detail. Since this project will have an association, all trash will be picked up once a week and until that day must be kept in the individual's garage. A landscape architect has been retained for this project and has expressed a desire to save as many trees as the grading permits. Special care will be needed for two large oaks on the north and south sides of Building Unit 3 in the 1st phase. Fencing at the drip line of these trees should be noted on the grading plan. An additional detailed planting plan consistent with City standards will be required prior to final plat submission. This plan must be on a grading plan to ensure proper landscaping on 2:1, 3:1 slopes and the retaining wall areas. BLACKHAWK ACRES 2ND ADD PAGE 2 GRADING /DRAINAGE: The grading plan the developer sumbitted is feasible and in accordance with City standards, with the exception of the grading on the south end of the development. Staff recommends the developer extend the retaining walls westerly until he can achieve a 3:1 slope. An alternative to this, although not as desirable, would be for the developer to provide a low maintenance ground cover in the areas that have greater than 3:1 slopes. In no case shall the slopes be greater than 2:1. According to Soils Conservation Service estimates of the type of soil located in this area, the soil does have a moderate tolerance to erosion. However, due to the steep slopes, staff recommends that the developer restore all disturbed areas as quickly as possible to control erosion. In addition, the developer will be responsible for maintaining the proper erosion control measures and removing whatever sediment does erode onto Robin Lane. Because Robin Lane is located within the bottom of the deep ravine which is characteristic of this site, the drainage both north and south of Robin Lane is generally towards Robin Lane. The surface drainage is collected by storm sewer and deposited into Pond AP -27. Pond AP -27 is located just northwest of this development. Figure 1 illustrates the relationship with Pond AP -27 to this development and major drainage district. Pond AP -27 does have a positive gravity outlet all the way to the Minnesota River Valley. As a result, this development will not require the City to modify or extend any trunk storm sewer. The proposed grading does show some encroachment onto the Northern Natural Gas line easement. Staff recommends requiring the developer to obtain a permit from Northern Natural Gas Company to encroach upon their easement with their grading. UTILITIES: Utilities of sufficient size, depth and capacity exist within Robin Lane to service this proposed development. In addition, with Robin Lane upgrading, the City extended sewer and water services both east and west along Robin Lane. Staff recommends revising the developer's utility plan to include adding three hydrant leads and two hydrants. The distance from the existing hydrant east of Robin Lane to the northwest corner of Lot 1, Block 2, is approximately 250'. To provide better fire protection, staff recommends removing this hydrant and constructing a 6" hydrant lead to just south of the south entrance way to Block 3. Staff also recommends extending a 6" hydrant lead north from where the existing hydrant is to the east'corner of the "T" intersection of the north driveway to Block 3 with the driveway to Block 2. Also, staff recommends adding a hydrant and 6" hydrant lead just north of the driveway to Block 4. The water services to Blocks 2, 3 and 4 can be taken from the newly constructed hydrant leads. The proposed sanitary sewer services will require cleanouts spaced no further than 100' apart and at the end of each service line. STREETS /CIRCULATION: Robin Lane is an existing City street built to its ultimate design section. This development proposes to connect to Robin Lane with several private driveways. All private drives meet City Code with respect to maintaining 10% or less grade. BLACKHAWK ACRES 2ND ADD PAGE 3 Staff would recommend that the developer maintain a maximum 4% grade for one car length (20') to provide for a relatively flat landing area for the traffic to wait until they can gain access onto Robin Lane. It appears the developer can accomplish this at all the driveways except for the driveway for Lot 6. In order to maintain a 4% grade or less to Robin Lane from Lot 6, the developer will have to construct his driveway so that it lines up across the common driveway to Block 2 and 3. This will require permission from Northern Natural Gas Company. The building of the driveway over this easement should not cause any excessive fills or grading that would cause a problem for Northern Natural Gas Company. RIGHT -OF- WAY /EASEMENTS: This developer shall dedicate s 60' right of -way for Robin Lane on the final plat. Right -of -way presently exists by way of easement dedicated to the City by the previous owner. This development shall dedicate a 20' utility easement over the hydrant leads. This development shall also be responsible for dedicating the additional standard drainage and utility easements that the Code requires. PERMITS: The only permit this development will be required to obtain is permission from Northern Natural Gas to encroach on their pipeline easement. ASSESSMENTS: All trunk area assessments have been levied over Lots 7 12 of the Blackhawk Acres Addition. BLACKHAWK ACRES 2nd ADD PAGE 4 CONDITIONS: This development shall obtain a permit from Northern Natural Gas Company to encroach within their easement for both grading and a permanent driveway prior to final plat approval for that particular phase. This development shall construct the appropriate hydrant leads as referenced within the engineering report. 3. The private driveway shall have a maximum 4% grade for 20' from the curb line of Robin Lane with the remainder of the driveway grade not to exceed 10 This development shall dedicate a full 60' right -of -way for Robin Lane that is not previously dedicated under the Blackhawk Acres Addition. This development shall dedicate a minimum 20' utility easement over the hydrant leads. This development shall comply with all general engineering conditions which apply. This development shall be responsible for all costs associated with developing this property. 8. Any drainage and utility lot line easements on the Blackhawk Acres Addition not being used in the Blackhawk Acres 2nd Addition shall be vacated prior to final plat approval. 9. All standard plat conditions shall be adhered to. 10. This plat shall be subject to a cash parks dedication fee. 11. A tot lot shall be provided and the plans reviewed /approved by the City's Park Planner. 12. All trash must be kept in the individual garages until the day of pick up by one collector. 2 1.■ r -INSIrr• 1 eta' dams sw• B L A K HA VK 2 3 C 5 Il•I SO( Preliminary Plat of BLACKHAWK ACRES 2ND ADDITION It Li. 0.111,11 ii. &Ma, amoOil., 1.

The site, Lot 1, Block 1 and Outlot A in the first addition is located along Lexington Av on the east side just north of Co. Rd. 30. ZONING LAND USE: This site is surrounded by other land uses all within the Lexington South PD. An R -2 density for 40 acres is to the north, the Northview ,Athletic Fields are to the NE, Northview Elementary to the east'and a designated Episcopal Church site to the south. Across Lexington Av is a Covenant Church site, a City water reservoir and 3.5 acres of uncommitted land. The portion of the site where most building occurs is on a plateau high above the surrounding area. The land falls rapidly to a City ponding area near the NE part of the site and that hillside is heavily wooded. The 168 units give the project an overall density of 10.30 units /acre, well within the 12 units allowed in R -4 districts. An exhibit from the Lexington South PD file shows this area having 5 20 unit buildings. The proposed project has detached garages. Similar apartment projects in Eagan include: Cinnamon Ridge, Ballantree and Rahn Villa. All building and parking setbacks meet City Code except apartment building #7 on the NW portion of the site. The front setback along Lexington Av must be 50' and only 40' is shown. When a covered parking space is included with the rent, only one additional outside space must be provided. Garages for 174 cars and 186 outside spaces have been proposed. The overall lot coverage is well within the 20% allowed in R -4 districts but it appears greater in the apartment area due to the detached garages and unbuildable hillside. The project is proposed in 2 phases. The first phase consisting of 96 units is'4 buildings and 5 additional garage buildings on the southern portion of the site. Phase 2 Outlot. A) will contain 72 units in 3 separate buildings and have 4 20 car garage buildings. APC JULY 29, 1986 LEXINGTON HILLS FIRST ADD PAGE 2 COMMENTS: These two story 23' tall wood frame buildings will contain 108 one bedroom (624 S.F.) units and 60 (936 S.F.) units. The colors of the roofs and the proposed vinyl siding have not been determined. Amenities include optional fireplaces, balconies and a tot lot. The proposed garages have double doors each serving two individual apartment units. In areas between the garages where 35' is shown, there should not be parking in front of the doors. Trash should be kept in the garages until the day of pickup or specific enclosure locations should be noted and suitably screened from public areas. LANDSCAPING: A preliminary landscape plan has been submitted and works well conceptually. However, the detailed plan submitted prior to the final plat submission will need to address the size, spacing and berming more closely. The evergreens are shown at a 25' spacing where the detailed plan will need to show them at a 12 15' maximum spacing. A mixture of overstory, understory, coniferous plant material along with shrub masses will be used to buffer the buildings /garages along Lexington Av. GRADING /DRAINAGE: The existing topography on this site consists of a relatively level plateau paralleling Lexington Avenue and then dropping very rapidly to a low depression located near the northeast corner of this site. The slopes from the plateau to the low basin are around 30 Therefore, this developer proposes on only grading the plateau area and leaving the side slopes and drainage basin in its natural state. Grading proposed by this development is feasible. However, the grades northeasterly of the four garage units located in Phase I are 2.5:1. A 3:1 slope is necessary to provide proper maintenance. Therefore, staff recommends either increasing the slopes to 3:1 or the developer will have to install low maintenance ground cover. Because of the erosion of this soil, the developer will have to pay special attention to maintaining the erosion fence and restoring disturbed areas on this site as quickly as possible. The developer will be responsible for removing any sediment that erodes from this site and ends up into the low area. The proposed grading of this site does not altar any of the existing drainage patterns. These drainage patterns are in a northerly direction with most of the drainage over this site going to the low area referred to as Pond JP -29 on the City's Comprehensive Storm Sewer Plan. Figure 1 illustrates the relationship with this pond, its major drainage district and this proposed development. From this you can see that Pond JP -29 does not have a positive gravity outlet, yet it collects storm water. from Lexington Avenue and adjacent developments and will also collect additional runoff from this site when it is developed. Therefore, staff recommends that as a condition of this development, the Council authorize the project to provide a storm sewer outlet from Pond JP -29 to McCarthy Lake (Pond JP -9). APC JULY 29, 1986 LEXINGTON HILLS FIRST ADD PAGE 3 UTILITIES: Water main of sufficient size, capacity and depth exists west of Lexington Avenue. An 8" lateral was installed across Lexington Avenue prior to the upgrading of Lexington Avenue. However, this 8" stub is connected to the high pressure side of the Lexington Avenue booster station and cannot be looped back to the 20" trunk water main north of the booster station without the installation of a pressure reducing station. However, this looping is not necessary and the 8" deadend water lateral will be able to supply the flows that this development would require. Sanitary sewer is in place at the intersection of Lexington Avenue and Diffley Road. This sewer is of sufficient depth for the City to extend to the north to pick up this proposed development. Because this sanitary sewer line affects more than just this proposed development, the developer is requesting the City install this line and have it assessed to benefitting properties. Because of this, staff recommends that the final plat approval for this development not be granted until the Council authorizes the project for the installation of sanitary sewer to this development. The developer is proposing to install the internal utilities privately. These utilities shall meet all City standards for design and installation. STREETS /CIRCULATION: Lexington Avenue is the only public street providing access to this development. Lexington Avenue is under the jurisdiction of the Dakota County Highway Department and is built to its ultimate design cross section adjacent to this property. The combination of grades on this northerly end and County road access separation requirements dictate that only one access into this site is practical. Because only one access to this site off of Lexington Avenue is practical, the developer proposes on oversizing his entrance road to 32' in width. However, staff recommends against having any garage taking direct access from this major entrance road. The remaining internal private drives meet= City Code. Staff sees one potential problem regarding parking. Because the garage stalls do not equal the number of units per apartment building, some tenants may have to walk as much as 250' to their garage. Staff feels that this is very unlikely to happen and that the tenant will park in the parking lot in front of the apartment building. This could cause some congestion since basically only one outside parking stall is provided with each unit. This development should be responsible for the 8' trailway along Lexington Avenue. This trailway is a requirement because of City standards relating to minor arterial streets having trailways adjacent to them. RIGHT -OF- WAY /EASEMENTS: This development shall dedicate on the final plat a 50' half right -of -way for Lexington Avenue. APC JULY 29, 1986 LEXINGTON HILLS FIRST ADD PAGE 4 This development will be responsible for any easements required over the property to the south of it for the construction of the sanitary sewer necessary to serve this site. Also, this development shall be responsible for dedicating a ponding easement for Pond JP -29 to encompass its high water elevation. Finally, any public utilities not located within public right -of- way will require a minimum 20' easement dedicated over them. PERMITS: This development will be responsible for obtaining the following permits. 1. MPCA sanitary sewer extension permit. 2. MWCC sanitary sewer estension permit. 3. Department of Health water main extension permit. 4. County highway access permit. ASSESSMENTS: In reviewing our assessment records, this parcel, 017 -54, has been assessed for all trunk area related assessments. CONDITIONS: 1. The maximum grade of slopes over this site shall be 3:1, but 2:1 slopes will be permitted with the establishment of low maintenance ground cover. 2. The Council must authorize the storm sewer outlet from JP -29 to Pond JP -9 and also the sanitary sewer extension along Lexington Avenue prior to final plat approval. 3. There shall be no access from garage stalls onto the entrance drive. 4. This development shall dedicate a 50' half right way for Lexington Avenue. 5. This development shall dedicate a ponding easement to the HWL for Pond JP -29. 6. This development shall dedicate a minimum 20' wide utility easement over any utility not located within public right of -way. 7. This development shall be responsible for the easement, if necessary, across the property to the south of it to install the sanitary sewer. 8. This development will be responsible for an 8 trailway along Lexington Avenue. 9. This development will be responsible for complying with any standard engineering conditions which may apply. 10.

WILSON E 1/4 SECTION 14 R -1 (SINGLE FAMILY) JULY 29, 1986 JULY 18, 1986 REPORTED BY: PLANNING ENGINEERING APPLICATION: An application has been submitted by Fred B. Wilson of 3595 Blackhawk Rd. requesting a Preliminary Plat consisting of four lots on 4.6 acres. This site has frontage on the south side of Blackhawk Rd. across from Blue Cross Blue Shield and the new park facility. the existing home and there will 2, 3, and 4 will measure .79 acre, frontage on Blackhawk Rd. of 75', No variances of the R -1 zoning Previously, a Waiver of Plat was approved on this site creating two parcels. This Preliminary Plat, consisting of four single family lots, will be subject to a cash Parks Dedication Fee. GRADING /DRAINAGE: The existing drainage pattern of this proposed four -lot subdivision is to the south and west. There is no major grading proposed other than that required to construct individual houses on the three newly created lots. All surface drainage for the newly created lots can easily conform to the existing drainage patterns. With no major grading anticipated or required with this development, no erosion control measures are necessary. UTILITIES: Sanitary sewer of sufficient size, depth and capacity is available adjacent to the southeast corner of proposed lot 4.. This development proposes to install a sanitary lateral along the rear lot lines with individual sewer services provided for each lot. Water main of sufficient size and capacity is provided along Blackhawk Road through the existing 12" trunk water main. Individual water services will be provided to each of the 3 newly created lots from this trunk water main. APC JULY 29, 1986 WILSON ADDITION PAGE 2 STREETS: Access to this proposed development will be obtained from Blackhawk Road, which is presently improved to a 24' wade bituminous surfaced road with gravel shoulders. Blackhawk Road will be upgraded sometime in the future to the City standard 44' collector status with concrete curb and gutter and a trailway. This upgrading is not necessary as a result of this proposed four -lot subdivision. However, due to the existing elevations, curvature of the road and present /future traffic volumes, there is limited visibility creating safety concerns for individual driveway access onto Blackhawk Road. Therefore, each newly created lot shall be required to construct its driveway with a turnaround to eliminate the need for backing out onto Blackhawk Road. ASSESSMENTS: As a result of the approval of Waiver of Plat #17- W-11-9-85 (Fred B. Wilson) in November of 1985, this subdivision has paid its assessment obligations for trunk area water, lateral benefit from trunk water main along Blackhawk Road and the future obligations for the upgrading of Blackhawk Road for all four lots of this proposed subdivision. Trunk area storm and sanitary sewer assessments have been previously assessed for this entire subdivision. However, at the time of the Waiver of Plat, sanitary sewer service was not required. Consequently, a detailed analysis as to its availability was not performed. With this proposed subdivision connecting to the existing sanitary sewer located in the southeast corner of lot 4, this development will be responsible for its lateral benefit derived for the existing sanitary sewer crossing lot 4. This obligation is identified as follows: Lateral Benefit From Sanitary Sewer 117.66 ft. $14.35/f.f. $1,688.42 This obligation will be required as a condition of final plat approval and can be assigned to lot 4 or spread equally over all 4 lots at the developer's option. PERMITS PLAN APPROVAL: Permits will have to be obtained from the City of Eagan for construction within the Blackhawk Road right -of -way required by the installation of the individual water services. Permits will have to also be obtained from the MPCA and MWCC for the proposed sanitary sewer lateral extension along the south line of this subdivision. Detailed plans and specifications prepared by a registered engineer shall be submitted for review and approval by staff prior to final plat approval. APC JULY 29, 1986 WILSON ADDITION PAGE 3 EASEMENTS /RIGHTS -OF -WAY: A 40' half right -of -way shall be dedicated for Blackhawk Road. In addition, sufficient easements shall be dedicated along the south line of this proposed plat for the installation of the sanitary sewer line. If detailed construction plans indicate the need for permanent or temporary construction easements from the adjacent property to the south, it shall be this development's responsibility to acquire all permanent and temporary utility easements prior to final plat approval. CONDITIONS: 1. A 40' half right -of -way shall be dedicated for Blackhawk Road. 2. Individual driveway turnarounds shall be constructed for each of the three newly created lots. 3. This development shall assume its additional assessment obligations for benefit received from the existing sanitary sewer. 4. All required permits from regulatory agencies shall be acquired prior to release of final plat for recording. 5. All required permanent and temporary construction easements for the sanitary sewer shall be dedicated on the plat or acquired by deed conveyance prior to final plat approval. 6. This development shall be responsible for complying with all applicable standard engineering conditions. 7. All other applicable ordinances shall be adhered to. 8. This plat shall be subject to a cash parks dedication fee. ••••••••••A‘..• or, r OA cP .4 4 ;4 88.0 I [s_av r AvE If 11 i 1 a 7 0;4 y .PPti.EAut4 i •on: TIC AVE FActurr del WATER TREATMENT P1.16UC WORKS GARAGE ACC BLACIEWKWK ."'•;:-/ARK vorroN441 cm .1..

This drive thru restaurant will be located on the western part of Outlot A, Town Centre 70, 3rd Addition. This new lot will contain approxi- mately .6 acres and the remaining area will now become Outlot A, Town Centre 70, 5th Addition. SITE PLAN: The new lot will contain 29,330 S.F. and Outlot A will contain 28,950 S.F. This Outlot will become another fast food facility very similar in size to this Taco Bell. The terms of the sign P.D. for Town Centre 70 will allow 25' maximum height pylon signs on both sites in predetermined locations. TACO BELL FACILITY: This 60 seat restaurant will contain approxi- mately 2,240 S.F. and provide parking for 26 cars. City Code will require 20, 10' stalls. Staff is recommending the removal of the single stall in the northern most portion of the site to provide additional green area on this small site. The trash en- closure was originally here but was moved close to the building to be consistent with other buildings in the development. The parking setback is 18' on the northern property line and should be 20' to meet Code and be the same as the other restaurant facilities. All other setbacks meet Code requirements. A single 30' access will serve this facility. The drive thru facility, providing stacking for 6 cars comfortably, will also have a one way by -pass lane. All signage must be a minimum of 10' within the property line and under 7' except for the 25' pylon sign. The pylon sign will contain 97 S.F. and be subject to the $2.50 /S.F. one time sign fee. LANDSCAPING: A detailed landscape plan will be required prior to the final plat submission. This plan should have plant material compatible with that in the other restaurants and the Rainbow Foods across the street. Berming will be required on the Town Centre Drive side and the plan should be submitted on a grading plan or spot grades should be noted to indicate 2' 3' berm height. APC JULY 29, 1986 TOWN CENTRE 70 FIFTH ADD PAGE 2 GRADING /DRAINAGE: The preliminary grading plan the developer submitted is feasible. It proposes to create this site so that drainage is from north to south, thereby staying away from drainage into MnDOT right -of -way. The internal drainage will be handled with lateral storm sewer constructed within the parking lot and tying into the City's existing storm sewer line located within Town Centre Drive. Because the downstream storm sewer is in place, this development will not require any modifications or extensions to the City's trunk system. UTILITIES: Utilities of sufficient size, capacity and depth exist within Town Centre Drive. Project 429 provided for sewer and water service to this proposed development. STREETS /CIRCULATION: Town Centre Drive will provide public access to this proposed development. Town Centre Drive is a City collector street built to it's ultimate design cross section. Because of the limited width of this parcel, the singular access this developer proposes is the only feasible way to access this development. Staff recommends modifying the proposed access slightly to improve traffic flow into this development. Staff recommends deleting the southerly most parking stall to extend the throat length to maintain a minimum of a 40' length. Also, staff recommends increasing the entrance radii to 20' instead of the 15' as shown. Finally, staff recommends increasing the sidewalk width adjacent the parking stalls north of the building to 7'. This will allow a net width of 5' when taking into account the 2' overhang for the vehicles. RIGHT -OF- WAY /EASEMENTS: Town Centre 70 1st Addition dedicated all necessary right -of -way for this proposed development. This development will be responsible for dedicating a 15' easement adjacent to Town Centre Drive for sidewalk, snow storage, utility, and drainage purposes. This development shall also be responsible for dedicating the standard easements the City Code requires. PERMITS: This development should not require any outside agency permits. The possible exception could be a permit from MnDOT should the grading or the site encroach upon MnDOT right -of -way. ASSESSMENTS: A check of the City's assessment records indicate that all trunk area related assessments are levied or pending. APC JULY 29, 1986 TOWN CENTRE 70 FIFTH ADD PAGE 3 CONDITIONS: 1) All standard plat conditions shall be adhered to. 2) Pylon sign height shall be 25' maximum and the one -time sign fee of $2.50 /S.F. shall be required. 3) The single parking stall on the north shall be removed. 4) The 18' parking setback on the north shall be expanded to 20'. 5) A landscape plan complete with berming and suitably noted shall be submitted prior to final plat submission. A financial guarantee shall be submitted and not released until one year after installation. 6) Delete the southeasterly most parking stalls to provide a minimum driveway throat length and increase the entrance radii to 20'. 7) The developer will comply with all standard engineering conditions which apply. 8) This plat shall be subject to a cash parks dedication fee. ir5.54-7.4 .if f ,a tir oss:V ...,•4 .illItli1;•Ill f 04.

This plat is a part of Outlot C of Town Centre 70 First Addition. Lot 1, 3.63 acres, will contain a "car care" facility consisting of 3 separate buildings and the .97 acre Lot 2 is a proposed sit down restaurant facility. SITE PLAN: Lot ,1 will contain a typical strip center building containing 23,1opt S.F., Seven auto related services have been proposed: auto parts, -.:a muffler Shop, a transmission shop, import ..specialist, glass -shop auto reconditioning and ,a tire store. -A1 of the 'service/repair shops will use the drive-thru building, 'design. At this time, the building circulation does not have' any 4in/out ;designation. The building itself will be made of brick with a metal roof detail and gabled. entries. All sides, including the metal work, will be treated the same. The building and parking "areas meet all City setback requirements. East of the retail area is a 880 S.F. gas station with convenience foods and an attached 544 S.F. car wash. The car wash should have drying capabilities to eliminate excess water/ice in the multi-use parking area. Benshoof Associates has recommended a change to the southern entry from Town Centre Dr. It will close off the .gas pump area and create a more controlled entry/exit 4 7 -T 1 or that portion of the site. The lube/oil facility, south of the,vas-station,. will be 2;024 S.F. and have a designated drive circulation pattern. Stacking for 3 cars has been provided. Code does not permit outside storage in CSC districts, therefore, all auto parts accessories must be unloaded directly into the building. Two 10' x 10' concrete block trash enclosures located on the parking lot perimeter have been .noted. Staff previously recommended that all trash areas be brought up next to the building and have a single scheduled pickup. The submitted plan shows the 'trash enclosed in the restaurant on Lot 2.. Parking for 178 cars has been provided for the 3 use areas and 185 would be required based on a retail use only in the strip center. Since most of that building iS service oriented,:!there::7,? should be ample parking. The area west of the strip center should be designated for employee parking and as an area for vehicles APC JULY 29, 1986 TOWN CENTRE 70 SIXTH ADD CAR C.A.R.E. PAGE 4 CONDITIONS: 1.

The developer, Tollefson Builders, Inc., has been unable to complete. the trailway system in accordance with the originally submitted plan due to inability to acquire the necessary easements. Attached to this memo is a letter from Mr. Tollefson requesting City considereration of deleting this completion requirement of the remaining trailway system. Also attached to this memo is a layout of the Briar Hill Additions showing the location of the original trailway alignment, the existing construction and the remaining incompleted segments. Since this trailway installation was a requirement of the Park Commission's review of the Briar Hill preliminary plat, the requirement for its completion should be reviewed by the Park Commission with a recommendation to be brought to the City Council. Please let me know if you feel notification of the affected property owners would be appropriate for providing input for the Park Commission's consideration when they review this matter. I will be happy to send out notices informing them of scheduled review and /or action. Director of Public Works TAC /jj N.W.

Box 21199 Eagan, MN 55121 Re: Briarhill 4th Addition Trail Easements Dear Mr. Hedges, As you know, there were incorrect legal descriptions for the trailway easements in Briarhill 4th Addition. Bill Dolan, our engineer, has prepared new legals and Paul Hauge has drafted the new trail easements to be signed by the Briarhill homeowners involved. There are a total of 6 individual easements 2 easements for 1 trailway which the homeowners have signed, returned and are enclosed for recording. The other trailway which requires 4 signatures has become a problem; 1 of 4 homeowners has signed the easement and the remaining 3 refuse to sign, reason being, the homeowners are concerned with the safety hazard of having a trailway run through their driveway. We recommend that the one trailway be sufficient for Briarhill 4th Addition, thereby we request to eliminate the second trailway. Also, of the 148 units in Briarhill, approximately only 10% of the homeowners have children which would utilize the trailway. If this action requires council approval, please place us on the agenda and advise us in writing if attendance is necessary. Thank —you for your help in this matter. Tollefson Builders, Inc. Carl R. Tollefson Tollefson Builders, Inc. Enclosures cc: Tom Colbert Paul Hauge CUSTOM DESIGNED HOMES Phone (612) 431 -1100 MEMO TO: ADVISORY PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION FROM: KEN VRAA, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION DATE: JULY 28, 1996 RE: USER FEES TRAPP FARM PARK PAVILLION, AND OTHER SHELTER FACILITIES BACKGROUND In anticipation that the Trapp Farm Park picnic pavillion and park shelter buildings will be operational in 1987, Staff is seeking a recommendation and concurrence on fees that should be charged for reserving these and other future park shelter facilities. This, of course, assumes that the Commission is agreeable that a fee is to be charged. OTHER PARK USER FEES At present, the Department charges for the use of Rahn Park shelter building, and the rental fee is $75.00 for the entire day. The community room at the Fire Administration building is .$50.00 for profit, commercial, or other non community use: $15.00 for community organizations, and "no charge" for youth and other non profit public service groups. A brief review of other community policies regarding facility reservations reveal a wide range of philosophies, and rental charges. For example: Burnsville has set a fee schedule based on the number of people, length of time period, and components used at each particular facility, as well as a differential rate between residents /non- residents. Burnsville charges $15.00 for reservation of a designated picnic area, which provides for 8 to 9 tables, $25.00 for an open picnic shelter, and $40.00 for the larger pavillion type facility. Burnsville also charges for tennis court reservations, ballfields, soccer fields, etc., as part of their reservation system. The City of Apple Valley charges a flat fee of $25.00 for any of it's picnic pavillion facilities. Enclosed structures, which are smaller, fall under a separate policy and fee structure. Lakeville has a unique approach, which charges by the person. Local, non- profit, or civic groups pay only a flat administrative fee of $15.00 for the right to make a reservation. The $1.50 per person charge comes into affect for large groups, or non resident groups. Because Lakeville has several large parks which can accommodate as many as 400 people, they have used this approach of reservations to administer their parks system. A park ranger checks on each group, which has a reserved park area and provides supervisory, as well as some measure of crowd control. Due to a large demand for facilities Lakeville established a minimum number of people to use the larger facilities. Like most communities, they also have a damage deposit associated with the use of many of it's facilities, particularly when it reserves for large, non -local groups. FOR DISCUSSION Parks and Recreation Staff fully expects that after the community becomes fully acquainted with the facilities of Trapp Farm Park, as well as future planned shelters, the pavillion and shelters will be in heavy demand for group reservations. Clearly, a reservation system will be necessary to administer their usage. Staff is also of the opinion that a fee should be charged for the privilege of making a reservation and use of the shelter. From Staff perspective, we are of the opinion that the fee structure should be simple, with as few complications as possible. This will be easier for the public to understand and certainly much easier to administer. Second, the process of the reservation system should also be simple to ensure good communications as well as accountability for cash receipts. Finally, the structure that is established should be representative of the services being provided. STAFF PROPOSAL. Staff is proposing that Park facilities be grouped into four (4) classifications for reservation programs. 1. Large Pavillion: The picnic pavillion at Trapp Farm Park, 2. Enclosed shelter buildings: Trapp Farm Park, Goat Hill, Rahn 3. Open shelters: Buildings and designated picnic areas without rest rooms, 4. Athletic Facility shelters: Northview Rahn Athletic facilities. With the later group, Category #4, the park shelter building is not the main reason for which the park is used. Rather, it is the ballfields that they intend to use, and the shelter building is an emenity to that facility. Staff would propose that the buildings at Northview, Goat Hill, and Rahn Park be reserved with the athletic fields and the rate for the athletic fields be adjusted to include these buildings and /or an additional facility charge be made. A damage deposit would be required: $100.00. Staff is recommending that fields be reserved for a fee of $30.00 per field /per day. Lights (if required) $20.00 per field /per day; Building cleaning $30.00. CATEGORY #1 For the picnic pavillion at Trapp Farm, Staff is recommending a fee of $35.00 per half day. Full day reservations would cost $50.00. Rates would remain consistent for all user groups. A "half -day reservation" is from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and 5:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Reservations, which go beyond either of the time periods would be considered as "full- days" and charged the full -day rate. CATEGORY #2 Enclosed shelter buildings would be available at $30.00 minimum fee; $5.00 for each additional hour, after the first five hours. A damage deposit of $100.00 would be required. CATEGORY #3 Open shelters or designated picnic areas would be reservable at $15.00, and could accommodate 18 to 25 people. The City would provide for between 6 and 8 permanent picnic tables. There would be no time use limit for the reservation of these open shelters /picnic areas. As shelters are added to neighborhood parks, and requests made for reservations, this fee policy would extend to these parks also. ISSUES FOR DISCUSSION The whole issue of fee changes in Parks and Recreation is often a philosophical approach, rather than one totally based on economic costs. It is the Staff's opinion that the charges being suggested reflect a major portion of the costs for the "extra" services, which may go beyond the normal level of City service provided. For example, your softball team can use any field to play a game, but if you wish to reserve Northview for a tournament game(s); department staff will have to do extra work: in field dragging, trash pick -up, etc. Your fee covers these additional expenses. The Commission may wish to modify, expand, or establish a different approach to the structuring of fee's. A second issue is that the fee proposal is for one year. A review after the first year's operation will give the department and Commission a better understanding of the work and time involved in maintaining these facilities. The Commission may wish to include this as part of any motion made in setting fees. The third point of discussion is in relation to the pavillion at Trapp Farm Park. Originally, the pavillion was conceived to have "two halves" usable by two groups at the same time; assuming that the combined total does not exceed the planned capacity. Staff is suggesting that until some experience is gained from the first year's use, the department issue reservations for the entire building only, waiting until 1988 before it reserves either half. It is understood that the facilities can be used without reservations on a first -come, first -serve basis. Reservations simply assure you the privilege of using the facility. (Staff is currently reviewing methods of posting or notifying people that a facility /pavillion has been "reserved USER PROCEDURES Reservations would be taken up to four (4) full months in advance, but not later than fourteen (14) days in advance of the date requested. Reservations may be made in person, or by phone, and confirmed by fee payment. Reservation requests would be maintained on the Logis System, which would print out a receipt at time of payment on a "Reservation Confirmation" form. This form would be sent by mail to the "responsible person" making the reservation. The Confirmation Form would be accompanied by a letter with additional information regarding rules, regulations, and other pertinent information pertaining to the park i.e., no glass beverage containers, park hours, etc. Staff would also post the reservation at a central location at Trapp Farm Park, or devise some kind of posting to notify users that a particular area has been reserved. ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE On Monday of each week, a copy of all reservations for the next fourteen (14) day period would be printed out. This print -out would be sent to the Parks Superintendent, Parks Foreman, Attendant, and Police Department, so that they are aware of the group and responsible person reserving the facility. This will assist in the coordination of maintenance and preparation of the these facilities, and alert the attendant /police department should any problem arise. In Summation, the Department is recommending a reservation fee for Park Facilities of: $35.00 /half day, $50.00 full day /picnic pavillion, $30.00 enclosed shelter buildings, $15.00 for any open shelters: Facilities associated with any athletic field to be reservable with that particular facility at the fee established.
