STONE BRIDGE & BRIDLE RIDGE PROPOSALS Mayor Blomquist asked Tom Hedges to open the discussion concerning the Stone Bridge and Bridle Ridge planned development applications as a part of the over-all Eagan Hills Farm project. Dale Runkle briefly described the revisions that were requested by the City Council since the City Council meeting of March 3, 1987 covering the following items: 1. The development team has provided maps including streets, park land, small lots, executive lots, and other pertinent information. 2. There was concern as to whether 50 foot or 60 foot minimum street widths should be provided and the developers included 50 foot streets in certain locations. 3. The City Council suggested the development team consider a PUD for the remaining phases that were left to develop after the Bridle Ridge and Stone Bridge planned developments are acted upon. 4. The Council was concerned about the lot sizes and specifically directed the developers to return with 12,000 square foot minimum lot sizes and 85 foot minimum frontages. 5. The recommendation was made that certain outlots proposed with the Bridle Ridge Addition planned development be eliminated and the land area then be incorporated as part of adjoining lots. A. STONE BRIDGE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT. Dale Runkle indicated that within 30 days, it is expected the responses shall be received from the appropriate agencies concerning their comments regarding the planned developments. He noted that the Stone Bridge plan will meet the minimum R-1 lot requirements, but a planned development is being requested with setback issues still existing. David Sellergren, attorney, appeared for the applicants and made a presentation concerning the two developments, jointly, indicating that Stone Bridge included 202 lots, including nine R-1 lots in the northeast corner of the plat, and that certain streets will retain the 50 foot right-of-way according to the request. A representative of United Mortgage was present, as was Wayne Tauer of Pioneer Engineering . 6 Council Minutes March 17, 1987 There was concern about the property exception parcel owned by the Johnsons along Dodd Road and where access to the street must pass. Dale Runkle stated that negotiations or condemnation will be required in order to acquire access through the Johnson property. Mr. Sellergren argued that the narrower streets may be more attractive and the Developers Task Force has recommended that if there are less than 1,000 trips per day, that a 50 foot minimum should be permitted. Mr. Colbert stated the traffic volume is an issue but recommended 60 foot access to Wescott Road; cul-de-sacs could be 50 feet but possibly others should also be 60 foot minimum width. Councilman Smith asked where there are 50 foot rights-of-way and parking on one side only, what would the impact be concerning the Eagan winter parking program. Mr. Colbert stated that this may not create a problem. Mr. Tauer stated that the developer could comply with the minimum street width requirements. Councilman Wachter asked whether the park proposal was adequate according to the Park Commission's requirements. Park and Recreation Director Ken Vraa was present and noted the design proposal included active area in park parcel II, and also a possible active area along Wescott Road. About 25 acres is proposed to be dedicated within the two plats in question. Erosion control measures were described and he noted that the developer will be required to regrade the property. Councilman Egan asked whether any lots were compromised by increasing their sizes to minimum lot sizes and Tauer's answer was, "no, and that there were very minor changes only". There was discussion concerning the outlot for Pond GP-7 and Mr. Tauer stated that a temporary pond could be installed at the northeast corner. Mr. Sellergren agreed that the developer will work out the storm sewer issue to the City's satisfaction, prior to final plat approval. Wachter moved, Egan seconded the motion to approve the application for rezoning for Stone Bridge from A (Agricultural) to R-1 Planned Development, noting that there are two deviations in the street widths. All members voted yes. Egan then moved, Ellison seconded the motion to approve the application for preliminary plat, subject to the following conditions: 1. 60 foot minimum street widths will be incorporated as required through negotiations with the staff and it was understood that the cul-de-sacs and one of the inter-connector streets in the south could retain the 50 foot minimum street width. 7 Council Minutes March 17, 1987 2. A 50 foot half right-of-way shall be dedicated for Wescott and Dodd Roads adjacent to this development. An 80 foot right-of- way shall be dedicated for Elrene Road and a 40 foot right-of-way shall be dedicated for the southerly extension of the collector street to the southwest corner. 3.

The Park Committee's recommendations shall be complied with by the developer. All members voted yes. 2. BRIDLE RIDGE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT Mr. Sellergren continued the presentation regarding Bridle Ridge planned development and noted that three lots of the 202 lots are less than 85 foot frontage and 12,000 square foot in size, that 6 lots are less than 12,000 square feet and 20 lots less than 85 foot frontage. Other representatives of the applicant were present, including Rod Hardy and James Hill. Mr. Sellergren explained the slope with the tree concentration along Wescott Road and the constraints involved in the development. He recommended that the trees along the west line be protected by the developer originally, and later that maintenance be taken over by the City. He indicated that several of the proposed outlots are now included as part of abutting lots to avoid the tax forfeiture potential. The entry area from Wescott Road was recommended to be retained to utilize the retaining wall rather than the 3 to 1 slope that was being proposed in order to retain the trees in the location. Councilman Egan asked whether there are any compromises regarding the increases in lot sizes and Mr. Sellergren indicated that the small lots in the south were created because of the deeper park and the steep slopes. Councilman Ellison asked whether the developer could not comply with all minimum requirements if one or two lots are removed. Mr. Colbert recommended that the Bridle Ridge road right-of-way be retained for 60 foot right-of-way and noted that not all sites on the road are executive home sites and could create winter parking problems. Mr. Sellergren stated that there would be parking only on one side of the street. Mr. Hardy also suggested that all parking be prohibited on the street. 9 Council Minutes March 17, 1987 Smith moved, Wachter seconded the motion to approve the application for rezoning of the property for Bridle Ridge PD consisting of approximately 123.3 acres with 202 single family lots from A (Agricultural) to R-1 Planned Development.

Dale Runkle described the application and stated that all lots meet the minimum City requirements. He also described the proposed swap with the ISD #196 property to the west. Mr. Runkle noted that the final information regarding the application, had not been reviewed by the staff prior to the Advisory Planning Commission and therefore the Planning Commission submitted the application to the Council without recommendation at its meeting on February 24, 1987. Wachter recommended that because the Planning Commission had not reviewed the full staff report, that the applications should be returned to the Planning Commission for recommendation. Mark Parranto was present and explained the reasons for the delay from October to the February Planning Commission meeting. There was discussion concerning Lots 22 - 25, Block 1, due to future upgrading of County Road #30 and the very steep terrain with a retaining wall alternate for development purposes.

The MPCA has requested that cities act as co-permittees on the issuance of such permits, in spite of the fact that a potential substantial administrative burden could result from the City serving in such a role. The Councilmembers generally stated they would not favor acting as co-permittee unless the scope and extent of the project are significant, such as the Town Centre 70, Wachovia, and Eagan Heights projects. The staff was directed to contact the MPCA indicating that it would not approve acting as co-permittee on the E Z Air Park permit. GENERAL OBLIGATION BOND ISSUE - REFUNDING Mr. Hedges stated that he and the Director of Finance have been meeting with representatives of Miller & Schroeder Municipals to analyze general obligation and revenue bond debt that is outstanding to determine whether refunding any of the issues would represent a positive savings to the City. A schedule of bond issues that have been reviewed by Miller & Schroeder was attached to the packet. He noted the municipal bond rates are extremely favorable at the present time and would provide a significant reduction in the interest charges for many of the bond issues. However, by refunding, the City can no longer enjoy high interest that could be received on the investment of funds, especially if interest rates should increase and investments should become more lucrative in comparison to interest rates charged on the bond funds. The effect of the refunding would be to lower interest rates at the present time and shorten the retirement period. Further consideration will take place regarding the refunding with a report to the City Council at a later time.
