programs pursuant to a housing plan, which may be financed by the
issuance of revenue bonds of the City; and
WHEREAS, the City has adopted the City of Spring Park 462C
Housing Plan (the "Housing Plan") pursuant to and in conformance
with the provisions of the Housing Act and has held a public
hearing thereon, after at least 30 days' published notice
thereof, and after review and comment by the Metropolitan Council
thereon; and
WHEREAS, the City Council (the "Council") has determined
that it is in the best interests of the City and in furtherance
of the City's goals established in the Housing Plan that the City
amend the Housing Plan, by approving and adopting a multifamily
housing revenue bond program entitled Program for a Multifamily
• Housing Development - Lakeshore Court Apartments Project (the
"Program"); and
WHEREAS, under the Program the City expects to issue its
revenue bonds in an amount of up to $7,000,000 (the "Bonds") to
provide permanent financing for a 94 unit multifamily rental
housing development (the "Project") together with related
issuance costs. The Project is and will be located east of the
Twin Birch Health Care Center, south of Shoreline Drive and west
of King's Road in the City. The Project will be developed and
initially owned and operated by Warren A. Ortenblad as trustee of
the Warren A. Ortenblad Real Estate Trust, or his or its
successors, affiliates or assigns (the "Developer"); and
WHEREAS, the Project will be reserved for rental in part by
persons of low and moderate income, with at least twenty (20%)
percent of the units occupied or held open for occupancy by fam-
ilies or individuals with adjusted gross income not in excess of
fifty (50%) percent of the median family income estimated by the
United States Department of Housing and Urban Development for the
Minneapolis/St. Paul Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area; and
WHEREAS, the remainder of the Project not so reserved will.
be affordable to persons and families with adjusted gross income:
not in excess of those limits set forth in Minnesota Statutes,

necessary to further the policy of economic integration; and
WHEREAS, the Program is in conformance with the provisions
• of the Housing Act; and
WHEREAS, the City has held a public hearing on the Program
on January 17, 1989, after at least 15 days' published notice
thereof and after submission of the Program to the Metropolitan
Council for review and comment; and
WHEREAS, the Council and the staff of the City has reviewed
the Program and believes that the Program will increase the sup-
ply in the City of decent, safe and sanitary residential rental
dwellings and that the Program is in furtherance of the housing
policies of the City; and
WHEREAS, the City has been advised by the Developer that
conventional financing of the costs of the Project is available
only on a limited basis and at such high costs of borrowing that

be liable on the Bonds, and the Bonds shall not be a debt of the
City within the meaning of any state constitutional provision or
statutory limitation, and will not constitute cr give rise to a

ance of its Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds (Lakeshore Court
Apartments Project) in an aggregate principal amount of up to

together with related issuance costs, and thereby declares its
present intent to have the City issue its revenue bonds under the
Housing Act to finance the Project. Notwithstanding the fore-
going, however, the adoption of this resolution shall not be
deemed to establish a legal obligation on the part of the City or
its Council to issue or cause the issuance of such revenue
bonds. The City retains the right in its sole discretion to
- 2 -
withdraw from participation and accordingly not to issue the
Bonds, or to issue the Bonds in an amount less than the amount
referred to in this Section, should the City, at any time prior
to issuance thereof, determine that it is in the best interests
of the City not to issue the Bonds, or to issue the Bonds in an
amount less than the amount referred to in this Section, or
should the parties to the transaction be unable to reach agree-
ment as to the terms and conditions of any of the documents
required for the transaction. The Bonds, if issued, shall not
constitute a charge, lien or encumbrance, legal or equitable,
upon any property of the City, except the revenues specifically
pledged to the payment thereof, and each Bond, when, as and if
issued, shall recite in substance that the Bond, including
interest thereon, is payable solely from the revenues and
property specifically pledged to the payment`: thereof and shall
not constitute a debt of the City within the meaning of any con-
stitutional or statutory limitation.

requirements of the Housing Act. The staff of the City are

directed to take all steps necessary and desirable to proceed to

the Program in accordance with the Housing Act.
Section 5. To the extent any of the requirements of the Con-
tract for Private Development entered into between the City and the
Developer dated on or about May 8, 1987, and amendments thereto, are
in conflict with and more restrictive than the provisions of the
Program approved hereby, the requirements of the Contract for Private
Development shall control.

POLICE COMMISSION
January 9, 1989
7:30 pm - City Hall
PRESENT: Rockvam, Kraemer, Dill & Widmer. Weeks absent
ALSO PRESENT: Fire Marshall Gerald Babb
Police Chief Mel Kilbo
Officer Chuck Schauss
Marina Merchants present: Gus Knott - Town & Country Foods
Mike Malaske - Video Update
Pat McGinnis - Pizza on the Lake
Don McCarville- Regal Cleaners
The Marina Merchants had presented a letter of request to the
City Council to designate some kind of short term parking in
front of their businesses at the shopping center. The lane
across the front of the building is presently designated
"Fire Lane" and prohibits parking. For a short period of time
• there had been a 5 minute parking zone but it had been abused
and was rescinded.
Also during the past few months,the letter stated,that the
police were bordering on harassment by watching customers and
following them out to issue tickets.
The Merchants felt that the police were discouraging customers
by their over -zealousness.
The police chief stated that there had been some "over -zealous"
enforcement but that problem has been addressed.
The Chief and Officer Schauss responded that:
(1) This lane is a "Fire Lane" and violators will be ticketed.
(2) Five minute parking or any short term parking is very
difficult to enforce.
(3) The police do not consider it a violation for parcel or
party pick up as long as someone remains with the vehicle.
Officer Schauss pointed out that the handicap signs were not of
legal height and could not be enforced. He suggested the Marina
Center install proper signs and designations for handicap parking
enforcement. Violations now carry a $100.00 fine.

The Fire Marshall Gerald Babb pointed out that the Fire
Department needs this lane for access in the case of fire,
rescue or other emergency. He suggested, however, that a
possible Senior Loading/unloading area could be provided
along this frontage to accommodate seniors and handicapped.
The Merchants were satisfied that an unloading area could
be designated and that their customers would not be further
intimidated.
In other business the Police Chief reported that 2 more black
cats had been caught.
He reported on ambulance response time and presented the monthly
report.
Ron Kraemer questioned the speeds and lane differences on CSAH 15.
The Chief stated the STATE DOT sets speed limits and will be doing
a speed survey this spring to finally determine what the speed
should be.

CITY OF SPRING PARR
HEriMIN COMM, liTR3E OM
On March 6, 1989 the Spring Park City Council met at its regularly
scheduled meeting to consider the petition and application of RDP Partners
for the creation of a C-4 district in the City of Spring Park; the rezoning
of a certain 1.5 acre site from R-3, High Density Residential District, to
the
a C-4, Office Commercial District;os� development. for ev 1 vale variances
council
Zoning Ordinance for their proposed
conducted a public hearing on the proposal which was preceded by published
and mailed from
cll interesttedcant was present and persons wishing to speak and ow make tthe
testimony froaa a
following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The property is currently zoned R-3.
2. The property is located at 4165 Shoreline Drive, Spring Park,
Minnesota.
3. The property is located between the Hennepin County Water
Control building (zoned P) and the Minnetonka Edgewater Apartments (zoned
R-3).
4. The purpose of a C-4, Office Commercial District, as stated in
the proposed ordinance, is to provide a district which may reasonably
adjoin High Density Residential Districts and provide a transition in land
is use from such residential uses to more intensive uses by providing
limited development of certain types of administrative office buildings.
5. RDP Partners has submitted plans and drawings to the Council
for its proposal to develop the property by constructing an office building
which use would include a "yacht club" and a dock having approximately 30
boat slips.
6. RDP Partners' proposal as presented requires several variances
from the Zoning Ordinance as follows:
a. A variance from the set back requirement for a wooden
deck located between the building and the lake,
b. A variance from the set back requirement for two
balconies,
C. A variance from the height limitation on the building,
and
d. A variance from the off-street parking requirements.
7. In regard to the variance for the deck as proposed in the
plans submitted by RDP Partners, the uses of the deck and the effect of
such uses on neighboring residences, including noise and obstruction of
views from the neighboring apartments, were discussed. RDP Partners
-1-
• explained that the deck would be located well below the ground level of the
apartment building which would shield it from view from many of the
apartments and, in addition, the location of the trees on the property
would shield the deck from view. Councilman Kramer asked RDP Partners to
describe their hardship basis for requesting the variance. In response RDP
Partners stated that grass would not be able to handle the traffic between
the building and the dock and that to have an impervious surface such as
concrete or black top between the building and the dock would create
run-off problems. Mayor Rockvam brought up the possibility of using some
sort of stone or loose rock instead of a deck. RDP Partners then stated
that it is common practice to use plastic under such types of materials
which would thus create an impervious surface. The city planner confirmed
that there would be a problem if an impervious surface was used.
Councilman Weeks discussed the fact that wooden decks would prevent the
possible erosion problems which would be inherent in loose rock surfaced
walkway. Councilman Widmer added that there would be less maintenance
problems with a wooden deck. RDP Partners' proposal also included a gazebo
to be located on the deck. In the following discussion of the purpose, the
size and location of the gazebo, RDP Partners was unable to articulate any
hardship or special conditions which would support a variance for the
creation of a gazebo. The developer stated that a hard roofed gazebo would
match the design of the building and would provide a rain shelter and a
place for sailors to store sail bags. The developer admitted that canvas
awnings could serve the same purpose. Mayor Rockvam stated that such
awnings would be temporary and would be taken down in the off-season
whereas the gazebo would be a permanent structure. Residents of the
Minnesota Edgewater Apartments voiced a concern over the activity and noise
• that a gazebo would encourage. The Council determined that the application
for a variance for the deck and the gazebo be considered separately as RDP
Partners was unable to meet the requirements for a variance on the issue of
a gazebo. A motion to grant a variance for a deck the height not to exceed
three feet from ground level to be located between the office structure and
the dock was passed. A motion to incorporate a hard roofed gazebo as a
part of the deck failed.
B. The next variance that was considered was a variance regarding
two balconies which extended into the set back area; one balcony by eight
feet and one by five feet. The reasons RDP Partners articulated for their
need for variance were that they have moved the building to that particular
narrow side of the lot to accommodate the desires of the Edgewater
Apartment residents regarding the location of the building. In addition,
RDP articulated an aesthetic concern with providing uniform balconies along
this particular side of the building and because of the narrowness of the
lot size on the east end of the building these two balconies would encroach
eight feet and five feet into the set back area. Councilman Kramer stated
that this sounded like an economic hardship more than anything else which
is not sufficient in itself to grant a variance. The city planner then
referred to Zoning Ordinance Section 3, Subd. C(3)(a)(3) which states that
a deck which extends either six feet into a yard or at the entry level of
the building is not considered an encroachment. The city attorney
confirmed the city planner's opinion that this section would apply. The
application of this section to the RDP proposal reduces the size of the
requested variance from eight feet to two feet in one case, and eliminates
• the need for a variance in the other. A motion was made for the granting
-2-
. of a two foot variance for one balcony to extend into the side set back
area. This motion failed.
9. The City Council next considered RDP's request for a variance
on the height limitations on their proposed building. The manner of
measuring the building height was discussed in great detail. It was
determined that the highest point of the roof was the elevator penthouse so
it would not be used to measure the height as it is exempt from the height
limitations under Section 3, Subd. E (2)(f) of the zoning Ordinance. The
developer did not have available the exact height of the building, but
measurements of the scaled drawing showed a height of 44 feet from the mean
of the basement to the mean of the main roof. The aesthetic value of a
hipped roof as proposed by the developer was also discussed. Jeffrey
Robinson, one of the owners of Minnetonka Edgewood Apartments, was
concerned that the proposed building would "dwarf" the surrounding
buildings such as his apartment building next door. Mayor Rockvam
mentioned that the water patrol building on the other side of the proposed
building site has a hipped roof. Mayor Rockvam then discussed in some
detail the past development of Spring Park including the effect on Spring
Park on the construction of apartment buildings in the city, their effect
on city revenue, use of water and other services, and the increase of
population.
The city attorney brought up the fact that the ordinance creating
a C-4 zone makes heights exceeding forty feet the subject of a conditional
use permit rather than a variance. This would be an easier requirement for
the developer to meet as no proof of hardship is required for a conditional
• use permit and a conditional use permit may be granted by simple majority
vote rather than by four -fifths of the Council.
Jeffrey Robinson stated his belief that the taller the "Yacht
Club" building is, the less desirable the apartment units on the east side
of his apartment building would be. In addition, he questioned the size of
the building for the site and its compatibility with the adjacent
residential district. Councilman Kramer again brought up the issue that
the developer needed to prove a hardship in order to get a variance and
that the developer could come back and request an conditional use permit in
the event it was unable to prove a hardship. The mayor confirmed that if
the variance failed the developer could come back and apply for a
conditional use permit. The developer did not set forth any special
conditions or circumstances which required the proposed building to be more
than 40 feet high. The developer emphasized the aesthetic value of a
hipped roof and that the size of the building was affected by economic
considerations. The developer also stated that its plans could be
modified. The City Council then considered a motion for granting a
variance to extend the building height four feet over the height limitation
of the zoning code, which motion failed.
10. The floor was then opened to the public to address any
additional concerns they may have regarding the proposals. Several
residents of the Minnetonka Edgewater Apartments stated the following
concerns:
• -3-
a. The potential access and parking problems,
b. Possible encroachment onto their property by users of the
new development,
c. Lights shining into apartment windows, and
d. Traffic, confusion and noise.
RDP Partners stated that it has entered into an agreement with the owner of
the Minnetonka Edgewater Apartments in which it has agreed to work with the
apartment owners to shield the apartments from car lights. The current
proposal includes construction of a chain link fence to enhance the
existing hedge and the developer has agreed to plant additional shrubs as
needed. One of the apartment residents commented that the fence sounded
good and that the shrubs would help car headlight problems and might muffle
noise also.
11. The City Council next considered the issue of granting a
variance from the Zoning Ordinance's off-street parking requirements for
the project. The city planner discussed his letter dated March 6, 1989 to
the Spring Park City Council in which he had analyzed the off-street
requirements of this C-4 district as a whole and of the developer's yacht
club proposal in particular. It was the conclusion of the city planner
that the City's off street parking requirements were in line with both
national and local standards. He recommended that one parking stall for
every two dock bays be required and stated that this was consistent with
• the requirements of other localities. The city planner mentioned that the
yacht club peak hours for parking purposes would be on the weekend and that
the office building's peak parking hours would be during the week. He
recommended a total of 146 parking stalls for the project, comprised of 130
spaces for the office building and 16 spaces for the yacht club. The mayor
voiced his concern that no parking spaces were specifically required for
the proposed sailing school and swimming lessons which were a part of the
developers proposed use of the property. The city planner stated that the
number of parking spaces required for the office building are on the high
end of what is generally required for such use, he felt that some of the
offices would not require as many parking spaces as were allotted to them,
and these spaces may adequately cover the swimming lesson and sailing
school parking needs. The developer then discussed when the lessons would
occur and how many students were anticipated in such classes. The
developer stated that for many of the sailing classes the students bring
their own boats from across the lake and do not need parking spaces. Mayor
Rockvam brought up the issue that the yacht club intends to have six
sailboats available for use of yacht club members and students. The Mayor
reiterated his feeling that a specific number of parking spaces were
required for the swimming and sailing lessons, and, although he did not
know how may parking spaces should be required, he felt that approximately
150 to 160 total parking spaces would be needed. The developer stated that
some of the sailing lessons would occur during evening hours when the need
for the office parking would be minimal. The discussion then moved to the
possibility of having off -site parking for the project. The developer's
present plans include 118 spaces on site. The developer is in the process
of negotiating with Balboa for the purchase of property approximately 300
-4-
feet from the site which would add up to 80 parking spaces for the
property. The developer also suggested it would be possible to cut down
the size of the building to meet the parking requirements or to possibly
work out a deal for the use of the water patrol parking lot adjacent to the
property. Use of the Balboa site for parking would require a variance from
the off -site parking requirements of the Zoning Ordinance as the off -site
parking would be more than 300 feet from the entrance to the property, even
though it is located approximately 300 feet from the corner of the
property. Jeffrey Robinson stated that it was his belief that the site was
not large enough to accommodate the size of the development the developer
proposed if it was unable to meet the parking requirements. He thought
this was evidence that the developer's use was too intensive a use for the
transition from the residential use of his neighboring property. The City
Council then entertained a motion on the granting of a variance from the
off-street parking requirements for the project, which motion failed.
The developer asked the Council whether it should pursue the
off -site parking. The Mayor stated that the developer would need a
variance in order to get this particular off -site parking proposal approved
and that the developer would need a four -fifth vote to get such a variance.
Of the four council members present at the meeting, one advised the
developer that he would not support any off -site parking because it was his
opinion that the use was too intensive for the lot and the parking problem
was evidence of that. He also cited the problems the City has had with the
Lord Fletcher restaurant because of off -site parking. The developer stated
that it would document the parking requirements it believed it would need
for the swimming and sailing lessons and would come back with a number
• which it would get the Mound community services organization to confirm.
12. The Council then considered the issue of rezoning this
particular site to a C-4 zone. The developer advised the Council of its
continuing discussions with Hennepin County regarding access to this site
and the location of curb cuts, including the allowance of a left turn onto
the property. Jeffrey Robinson stated that the entrance to the office
building as presently proposed was the worst possible location as it
affects his apartment building, eg. traffic and safety problems. Based on
all prior discussions, the City Council entertained a motion to rezone the
site from R-3 to C-4 for the project as currently proposed by the
developer. This motion unanimously failed. The City Council then
entertained a motion to rezone the site from R-3 to C-4 based on the
condition that the developer submit new plans which meet all requirements
of the zoning code and the C-4 zoning district. This motion was
unanimously approved. The public meeting was then closed.

The Administrator read a letter from Mr. Essig, dated March 3, 1989,
directed to the Council. Mr. Essig has leased property from Dakota
Rail, at 4113 Sunset Drive.
His desire is to use the property for office, boat, and trailer storage
and possibly minor marine repair. He was seeking suggestions from
Council because this property is not zoned and is owned by the Railroad.
The Administrator also read a letter from the Building Inspector dated
March 13, 1989, after reviewing the site he felt access for fire
apparatus would be difficult. He recommended this use not be approved.
If approved he recommended the buildings be sprinkled and provided
with one hour fire resistive construction. The Administrator noted
there is no water or sewer hook-up on the property. Council suggested
Mr. Essig be informed of parking requirements, access and also s.�agested

• 5. PETITIONS, REQUESTS & APPLICATIONS
a) Application for Re -zoning - Lord Fletchers Restaurant - 3781 Sunset Drive
Lord Fletcher's Restaurant had made application to re -zone property
at 3781 Sunset Drive, from R-1 to C-1, for the purpose of additional
parking. The Administrator stated this application had been with-
drawn on March 17, 1989. Property owners within 350 feet had been
notified of the public hearing on February 8, 1989. This property
is located across the street from Fletcher's Restaurant. Mr. Alan
Bell was present to represent Fletcher's. Neighbors are opposed to
the re -zoning of this property. George Norling presented a petition
with 67 signatures opposing the change, they were also requesting
the property be restored to its orginal state because Fletcher's had
graded and placed rock there.
The Mayor stated Council would accept comments from the audience
because Council was concerned with any problems that related to
Fletcher's restaurant. The following persons spoke.
Robert Wetherall - 3818 Sunset Drive - He stated he had two concerns.
I. He was opposed to the re -zoning without proper documentation,
because the property had already been made into a parking lot, he
stated it was after the fact.
2. He felt the City Fathers needed to help the residental people
because Fletchers property is a nuisance and detrimental to property
• owners in the area. In conclusion he wondered how far the City
would let Fletcher's expand.

George and Penny Norling - 3800 Dickson Extension had concerns about
what would happen to the property now that the application had been
withdrawn, if they would be notified if the issue were to be brought
up again, about the special use permit that had been granted for Lot
21 for 20 years. Mr. Norling felt too much dirt had been removed from
the property. He asked why the Police Chief was not present and the
City should consider a large assembly ordinance.
Walter Jarl - 3740 Togo Road stated he had not received a notice of the
public hearing.
Arthur Hibbs - 3801 Park Lane - He asked how Fletcher's would be per -
vented from using the property as a parking lot. The Mayor stated
they would be given a citation and it would be a zoning violation.
Catherine and John Hellweg - 3842 Sunset Drive. They stated Police
response was slow, that they find glasses and drinks in their mail
box, boat traffic is heavy, who was paying for the police protection,
and they are concerned with a limit on expansion.
Ron Keagle - 3829 Sunset Drive - He stated about 500 yards of dirt
had been removed from the property. The Mayor said Council is not
involved until a variance is required. The Administrator stated the
property was checked for water run-off. Mr. Keagle felt most of the
• nuisances created by Fletcher's could be dealt with through the Police
Department, but was concerned with the continual growth of Fletchers.
Mr. Bell stated he would work with the neighbors on fencing, trees,
and shrubs for the property at 3781 Sunset Drive and the property
might be used for a garden. He also added there were problems with
parking in regards to people boating and leaving their cars in their
lot.
Council stated Fletchers has been cooperative, the City pays the Police,
but also collects a lot of revenue from Fletchers.
Karen Cuff - 3572 Livingston Avenue said she felt Fletchers is a public
safety hazard because of the large crowds, and there is no maxium
capacity on the facility.
Joanne Widmer - 3882 Sunset Drive related she was concerned with the
pedestrian traffic.
Ted and Nancy Ahrenholtz - 3801 Sunset Drive suggested re-routing
Sunset Drive to make it a one-way, and controling capacity. They
were also concerned with the load limits on the decks.

application of RDP Partners for the rezoning of 4165 Shoreline Drive and
for several variances for their proposed development. These Findings of

• CITY OF SPRING PARR
HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINVESOTA
On March 6, 1989 the Spring Park City Council met at its regularly
scheduled meeting to consider the petition and application of RDP Partners
for the creation of a C-4 district in the City of Spring Park; the rezoning
of a certain 1.5 acre site from R-3, High Density Residential District, to
a C-4, Office Commercial District; and for several variances under the
Zoning Ordinance for their proposed development. The City Council
conducted a public hearing on the proposal which was preceded by published
and mailed notice. The applicant was present and the City Council heard
testimony from all interested persons wishing to speak and now makes the
following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The property is currently zoned R-3.
2. The property is located at 4165 Shoreline Drive, Spring Park,
Minnesota.
3. The property is located between the Hennepin County Water
Control building (zoned P) and the Minnetonka Edgewater Apartments (zoned
R-3).
4. The purpose of a C-4, Office Commercial District, as stated in
the proposed ordinance, is to provide a district which may reasonably
• adjoin High Density Residential Districts and provide a transition in land
use from such residential uses to more intensive uses by providing for the
limited development of certain types of administrative office buildings.
5. RDP Partners has submitted plans and drawings to the Council
for its proposal to develop the property by constructing an office building
which use would include a "yacht club" and a dock having approximately 30
boat slips.
6. RDP Partners' proposal as presented requires several variances
from the Zoning Ordinance as follows:
a. A variance from the set back requirement for a wooden
deck located between the building and the lake,
b. A variance from the set back requirement for two
balconies,
C. A variance from the height limitation on the building,
and
d. A variance from the off-street parking requirements.
7. In regard to the variance for the deck as proposed in the
plans submitted by RDP Partners, the uses of the deck and the effect of
such uses on neighboring residences, including noise and obstruction of
. views from the neighboring apartments, were discussed. RDP Partners

5. DISCUSSION OF LORD FLETCHER'S RESTAURANT OPERATIONS
The Mayor reviewed the problems concerning the large crowds at Lord
Fletcher's. The special meeting had been called because of the complexity
of the problems during the summer months when traffic is the greatest,
this has a profound impact on the people in the area. Jerry Babb the
Fire Marshall, Tom Jacobs the Building Inspector, Mel Kilbo the Police
Chief, and Alan Bell the manager of Fletcher's were also present seeking
a viable solution to resolve the concerns.
a) Parking Plan
Fletcher's has submitted a new parking plan which would provide an
additional 30 parking spaces. Mr. Bell stated there would also be
parking behind the 7-11 Store, and the ice house had been removed
to gain 10 more spaces, the new plan would provide approximately
35 more parking spaces. They also have 60 spaces for boats. Mr.
Bell also stated the out side bars were closed at 12:00 p.m. to
alleviate some of the traffic problems.
b) Off -site Lot/use
The Advance Machine parking lot was discussed at length. Council
• felt most of Fletcher's parking should be contained in one area.
Fletcher's has one shuttle bus from the Advance lot to the restaurant.
Council suggested two. Some of the suggestions were:
CITY OF SPRING PARK
SPECIAL MEETING - March 27, 1989
Page 2
•
Hire a uniformed officer, have the shuttle bus stop on Sunset and
offer the pedestrian traffic a ride. Have all the employees park
in the Advance lot, that would open approximately 60 more spaces.
Mr. Bell stated there are 607 seating spaces on the 2nd floor deck
and the interior, an approximate capacity total of 792. He felt
the problem boils down to the traffic on the street.
c) Load Control
The Building Inspector presented plans with dimensions of the rooms
and the load limits. He and the Fire Marshall were concerned with
possible fire hazards. The Building Inspector stated with his cal-
culations, counting car parking spaces and boat spaces, it would
allow 1047 people, which he stated he could see a big problem, be-
cause the building can't handle that many people. He also stated
load capacity will be posted at the Minnetonka Mist and P.M. Pizza,
and stated Council could set the criteria for the load limits. He
and the Fire Marshall strongly suggested these signs be posted, so
when the building and decks reach capacity people will then be re-
quested to leave. The Building Inspector and the Fire Marshall will
work together on this. The formula used is 15 square feet per person.
Mr. Bell stated they will also tighten identification checking and
spread the word that cars will be towed.
• d) Police Concerns
The Chief had several suggestions, these were: Put up a 8 foot fence
and use a turnstile plan to control access at a central access point,
hire a off -duty officer and have a reserve officer in the area on
peak hours. He felt the off -site parking would help. He also suggested
making Sunset a one-way or blocking the road. He was concerned with
safety at closing time.
e) Other Concerns
The Mayor suggested removing the volley ball courts and using the space
for parking. It was determined the space was too narrow, but could be
used if valet parking were used.
Togo Road, Park Lane and Thor Thompson Park were also discussed, it
was decided to post more signs. Weeks suggested one entrance to the
parking lot be closed. The Mayor suggested talking to Jim McAninch,
he lives on Togo Road and said he may have a plan.
Motion by Weeks second by Widmer to post signs stating "No Parking
after 10:00 p.m. Fridays, Saturdays and Holidays" at Thor Thompson
Park parking lot. Rockvam, Kraemer, Widmer and Weeks voted aye.
Dill voted no. The motion was declared carried. The Chief will
check with the attorney on proper wording.

3. Advance Machine lot be used for employees.

5. PETITIONS, REQUESTS & APPLICATIONS
a) Wm. Schritter - Application for Subdivision of Land
Mr. Schritter and Bill Griffith, to represent Mr. Schritter, were
present. On March 13th Mr. Schritter came before the Council and
asked Council to bypass a public hearing and the Planning Commission
for subdivision of his lot at 4712 West Arm Road. Mr. Schritter was
requested to have a survey and a legal description of the property,
which was presented to Council. The Administrator read the minutes
of March 13th. Council considered returning the application to the
Planning Commission because of the controversial issue when Mr.
Schritter had made application for a conditional use permit, which
was denied. Mr. Schritter was asking to subdivide the property into
two conforming lots with perpetual easements. Mr. Schritter stated
he had no plans for the property at the present time and he drew the
lots on the board to show the easements. The north lot has 12,000
square feet, the south lot has 10,800 square feet. Mr. Schritter
felt he should not have to notify the neighbors because other lots
in the area have been split, and he came to the meeting with the
understanding Council would make a decision and stated each time it
went to the Planning Commission it costs him money. Mr. Griffith
•
CITY OF SPRING PARK
REGULAR MEETING - April 3, 1989

• suggested Council grant Mr. Schritter the subdivision.
Motion by Widmer second by Dill to consider the application tonight
without going to the Planning Commission. In discussion Mr. Griffith
inquired what the basis would be for sending it to the Planning Com-
mission. The Mayor explained because it was so involved last time.
Dill stated we have made the decision in other cases. Upon roll call
Rockvam and Widmer voted no, Kraemer, Dill and Weeks voted aye.
Motion declared carried.
Motion by Dill second by Kraemer to subdivide the lot, but have the
Attorney check the easements. Upon roll call Rockvam, Kraemer, Dill
and Weeks all voted aye. Widmer voted no. Motion declared carried.
b) Approve EAW - Yacht Club - New Plan
In compliance with the EQB mandatory rules an EAW (Environmental
Assessment Worksheet) was prepared and mailed to all 15 agencies on
their distribution list. Also a press release was published on
February 27, 1989. The Environmental Quality Board published notice
on February 20th and the 30 day comment period expired on March 22,
1989. Of the 15 agencies to which copies were sent comments were
received from only three agencies, The MDNR, MN Historical Society
and the Metro Council. The following comments were noted:
• The DNR: "An Environmental Impact Statement is not necessary for
this project".
The Metro Council: "An EIS is not necessary for regional purposes".
Historical Society: Suggested an archaeological survey be done to
determine existance of any unreported historic sites which could be
damaged or destroyed by the proposed work. In response to the
Society's concerns, RDP Partners responded that the site has been
part of previous developments and has been altered and is not in an
"undisturbed condition".
The City Council must now evaluate the EAW and the comments received
to determine the need for further review (EIS) or that no further
review is necessary.
The findings of fact include the 5 listed criteria.
1. Type, extent, and reversibility of environmental effects identified
by the EAW;
The City Council found there were none.
0
•
CITY OF SPRING PARK
REGULAR MEETING - April 3, 1989
Page 3
2. Cumulative potential effects of related or anticipated future
projects;
Council determined there were none.
3. The extent that environmental effects are subject to mitigation
by existing public regulatory authority;
The Council determined the regulations of the DNR, MCWD, and
the LMCD are sufficient to mitigate any problems.
4. The extent that environmental effects can be anticipated and
controlled by other studies or EISs related to the project or
area;
The Council determined that there are sufficient studies related
to the area to control environmental effects.
5. The extent that two or more projects are related and as a result
compound the long term impacts of the projects.
Council determined this is a isolated project not related to any
other.
• Motion by Rockvam second by Widmer to approve the EAW, with no
further review. Upon roll call Rockvam, Kraemer, Widmer, Dill
and Weeks all voted aye. Motion declared carried.
The new building plan was reviewed briefly. The RDP Partners
stated they had dropped the height of the building and reduced
the width, and the building now fits better on the site, they
now have 117 parking spaces. The exterior appearance had been
changed and parking is 50 feet from the lake and they have a
loading zone. Council suggested the City Planner, Alan Brixius,
review the new plan and check the off street parking and make
sure the amenities offered have parking spaces. Council will

Fletcher's parking problems were discussed. These suggestions were
brought up: Valet parking, load limits being set on rooms and the decks,
towing, foot patrol and placing posts on the City parking lot to encourage
one-way traffic. Council questioned placing restrictions on the liquor
license to establish closing the outside bars at a certain time. The
seating capacity and the load limits remain to be established. Dill
stated he was in favor of rezoning the lot at 3781 Sunset Drive to
accommodate more parking and contain the parking to one area.
Dill noticed the door on the water tower was open. This will be reported
to the Utility Superintendent. Council inquired if the flushing had been
done because of the smelly water complaints. The cut brush and junk along
the railroad tracks was discussed. Council suggested it be removed.

Load Limits - Seating Capacity & MCWD - Letter
Hennepin County - Letter
Alan Bell and Bill Naegele were present from Fletcher's Restaurant.
A revised parking plan was presented indicating now existing park-
ing spaces and proposed parking spaces. Mr. Naegele explained the
amenities of the plan would be to concentrate more capacity in the
area of the restaurant reducing pedestrian traffic. He stated this
would allow approximately 98 additional spaces and reduce the amount
of cars parking in the Advance Machine lot, the Advance lot would
not be used Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, it would only be used
when the other lots are filled to capacity, then only with shuttle
bus service, he added this would be a safer situation. Mr. Norling
is

• indicated on the plan where the fence and shrubs would be placed.
Mr. Naegele stated their plans were:
1. To seal off the west end of the parking lot at peak times.
2. Have the main entrance next to the 7-11 store (3701 Sunset)
3. Have valet parking on the north side.
4. Limit access.
5. Seal the lot at 3781 Sunset Drive.
6. Landscaping and fence will be provided on the west side of

7. The shuttle buses will be identified and a pick-up people

8. Employ a Police Officer.
9. Willows will be planted along the wet lands.
10. Lighting will be provided in the parking lots.
11. Chains with stalls and signs will be placed in the lots.
12. The parking lot will be red rock.
13. There will be no Sun Tan Contest.
Mr. Naegele requested a "No Left Turn" sign on Dickson Ave. The
Mayor stated this will be checked with the Police Department. The
Mayor also suggested the possibility of using parking stickers for
residence at Thor Thompson Park because Mrs. Sterne had stated the
lot was always full of Fletcher's customers and no room for the people
when ball games are played. The Mayor stated cars will be ticketed
and towed.
• Mr. Naegele requested an easement from the City along the edge of
Lot 21 for placing trees and fencing.
Mr. Labresh stated Mr. Naegele has gotten together with the neighbors
in a effort to work out the problems concerning the restaurant and it
was determined the neighbors would be happy to see the parking lot
completed, and the plan is now satisfactory with the neighbors.
A letter to Scott Harri, Fletcher's Engineer, dated April 24, 1989,
from Hennepin County Department of Public Works was noted.
Motion by Weeks second by Dill to approve the parking lot as present-
ed with the screening included and setting a time of May 19th for
completion. Upon roll call Rockvam, Kraemer, Widmer, Dill and Weeks
all voted aye. Motion declared carried.
A letter dated April 28, 1989, from Alan Brixius the City Planner,
in which his conclusion read: Based upon our review of this matter,
it may be concluded that the proposed parking improvements are an
appropriate response to the issue at hand and serve to facilitate
key related land use policies consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan. From a land use planning perspective, the ability to consoli-
date and provide sufficient parking, within the context of the immedi-
ate Lord Fletchers area and Commercial Zoning District, will counter
CITY OF SPRING PARK
REGULAR MEETING - May 1, 1989

• the negative impacts being generated by intrusions into the adjacent
residential areas. This becomes an important factor with regard to
improving the land use relationships that presently exist and are
contrary to the City's established land use policies. To further
ensure that impacts upon adjacent residential properties are minimized,
screening measures within the parking area such as fencing and land-
scaping should be provided. Simultaneously, the need to organize and
manage parking stall configurations should also be pursued.
A letter from the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District, dated April 24,
1989, was noted.
A letter from John and Catherine Hellweg, dated April 30, 1989, offer-
ing suggestions was discussed, each of the eight items were considered,
these concerns will be addressed again at the May 15th meeting.
The seating capacity and the occupant load limits, and footages
established by the Fire Marshall and the Building Inspector were
discussed. The Building Inspector will be contacted to verify how
these were established. It was decided to have an agreement drawn
up concerning the issues between Fletcher's and the neighbors.
A recess was called at 9:10 p.m.
At 9:20 p.m. the meeting resumed.
• b) Interview Candidate for LMCD - Doug Babock

lot would be fenced and a gate to control access will be installed,

A large gully is washing out sand and soil near the deck area, this
water runs through a culvert from Northern Avenue and runs under
Sunset Drive, then through an easement (obtained by the City) to
the lake. Previous attempts to alleviate the problem by the City
to control the erosion have failed. The Utility Superintendent
stated rip -rap had been placed there last year and the low lake
level is causing the problem. He felt it needed a 32 foot pipe and
elbows to extend to the edge of the water. Cost would be approxi-
mately $876.00 for material and $40.00 an hour for a bob -cat. Dill
stated he also has the same problem. Mr. Smith stated they were
losing lakeshore and it was a hazard, he also added the City had
agreed to clean the easement and cut the weeds, when the easement
was obtained, this has not been done. Council determined Widmer
and the Utility Superintendent would look at the problem and it will
be discussed at the next meeting.

at a cost of $1000.00 per sign. Council determined Spring Park did
not have sufficient space for such large signs and decided the smaller
ones would be better suited, possibly placed on the light poles, these
would cost $250.00 each. Council also stated other signs that say
"Welcome to Spring Park" could be replaced when they are worn out.
The benches along Shoreline Drive were discussed, Shavlik asked how
this could be stopped because of the advertising on them. Council

4. GENERAL DISCUSSION w/CITY PLANNER

Proposed Ordinance 56.07
• a) Sec. 5 - Residential units above ground floor units in C-1 Dist.
CITY OF SPRING PARK
CITY COUNCIL & PLANNING COMMISSION - June 12, 1989
Page 2
. The Mayor stated Council was very concerned with the Conditional Uses
and Permitted Uses in a C-1 District. Examples were given such as the
Mini Storage which would be approved by the Council, that could safely
and functionally co -exist on premises. The Planner suggested separate
exterior entrances and separately identified parking stalls for employees,
expansion of nonconforming buildings would be prohibited. Council stated
they would like the word "special" removed from Sec. 5 - 1 b. The Planner
will re -write Section 5 to adjust the language concerning care -taker apart-
ments and space above commercial to allow for residential. He stated the
guidelines in the present Ordinance are not well defined.
b) Sec. 6 - Permitted uses in the R-1, R-2, R-3 & C-1 District
Council determined a C-1 should be retained in a C-2 - Shopping Center Dist.
Motion by Kraemer second by Widmer to remove as permitted uses "R-1', "R-2",
"R-3", and retain the "C-1" uses in the Shopping Center District. Upon
roll call Rockvam, Kraemer, Widmer, Weeks, Nyberg and Klohn all voted aye.
Motion declared carried.
c) Sec. 9 - 10 - 11 Manufacturing District
The Planner was asked to explain "Essential Services". He stated they
were light poles, lift stations and utilities. The Planner suggested
permitted uses in the Manufacturing District be defined to give Council
• more control, he also suggested creating a new district, such as a PUD,
this would allow more flexibility and give the City a right to review,
if the situation would be appropriate for the property. The Planner will
also re -write these sections with language directed at parking and create
two districts - a M-1 and a M-2.
d) Sec. 14 P Conditional Uses
Motion by Kraemer second by Weeks to delete in Section 14 92 "Elderly
housing or related health care facilities." Upon roll call Rockvam, Kraemer,
Widmer, Weeks, Klohn and Nyberg all voted aye. Motion declared carried.
5. PROPOSED ORDINANCE 56.08
a) Lot size for two family dwellings
The present Ordinance states 10,000 square feet are required for
a two family dwelling.
Motion by Kraemer second by Klohn to change the lot size. Upon roll call
Rockvam, Kraemer, Widmer, Weeks, Klohn and Nyberg all voted aye. Motion
declared carried.
Motion by Weeks second by Rockvam to require 12,000 square feet for duplexes.
Upon roll call Rockvam, Widmer, Weeks and Klohn voted aye. Kraemer and
• Nyberg voted no. The motion was declared carried.
CITY OF SPRING PARK
CITY COUNCIL & PLANNING COMMISSION - June 12, 1989
Page 3
Change of lot width was discussed. It was determined if set backs were
followed it would not be necessary.
6. AMENDMENT TO PARKING STANDARDS
The Planner offered two amendments:
1. Increase the parking requirement to one parking space per every two
seats in the establishment. This would result in .50 spaces per seat
which is generally consistent with the national standard for quality
restaurants. This standard addresses both customer and employee
demands.
2. The second option would expand the current regulation to address
employee parking demands. This ordinance would require one parking
space per each three seats in the establishment, plus one space per
employee on the maximum shift. This alternative segregates the amount
of parking calculated for customers versus employees.
It was determined related uses, such as recreational activities seem to
cause the parking problem. The Planner will provide criteria on this.
Council and the Commissioners felt the liquor establishments were causing
the problem. The Mayor suggested Fletcher's new parking plan be reviewed
in the Fall of the year.
• Motion by Rockvam second by Kraemer to review Lord Fletcher's parking plan
after the summer season and confine the review to liquor establishments
only. All votes were aye. Motion declared carried.
7. MISCELLANEOUS - Housing & Redevelopment Authority if Necessary
The final documents have not be completed.
8. ADJOURNMENT
Motion by Weeks second by Kraemer to adjourn the meeting at 10:22 p.m. All
votes were aye. Motion declared carried.

CITY OF SPRING PARR
HENNEPIN COUNTY, MINNESOTA
FINDINGS OF FACT
AND
RECOMMENDATION
ATTACHMENT TO THE MINUTES
OF PUBLIC HEARING ON June 14th
The Spring Park Planning Commission met on June 14, 1989 to
consider the amendment of the City's Zoning Ordinance to revise the uses
allowed within the zoning districts and to revise the lot area requirements
for two-family dwellings located within the R-1 district. Public notice
was published in the Laker Newspaper on May 29, 1989 advising the public
that a public hearing on these matters would be held on June 14, 1989 and
that all written and oral comments on these matters would be heard at that
time. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing on said date. No
members of the public attended the public hearing. Written comments dated
March 17, 1989, May 10, 1989, May 17, 1989 and June 14, 1989 from the City
Planner regarding the matters to be considered were provided to all members
of the Planning Commission and were made a part of the record of the public
hearing. The Planning Commission, after hearing testimony from all persons
desiring to be heard on the matter, makes the following:
FINDINGS OF FACT
I. REVISION OF USES PERMITTED WITHIN ZONING DISTRICTS.
1. Spring Park's current zoning ordinance regarding zoning
classifications is progressive; in addition to the permitted uses for each
district, any more restrictive use is also permitted.
2. Section 4, Subd. A(4) states that certain information is
required for all zoning amendment and conditional use permit applications.
The Planning Commission finds that none of this information is required in
this matter as it is not applicable to this proposal for a general
amendment of the zoning ordinance.
• 3. Section 4, Subd. B of the Zoning Ordinance requires the
following showings in order that protection and preservation of the general
welfare and the public health and safety is considered:
a. "Standards set forth in this ordinance will be, at all times,
complied with. The Planning Commission finds that the standards and
procedures set forth in the Zoning Ordinance for the amendment of such
ordinance have been complied with in this case.
b. "The proposed use presents no unreasonable hazard to the
surrounding area and community as a whole." The Planning Commission finds
that the proposed amendment of the Zoning Ordinance to modify the
progressive zoning structure will provide for a more homogenous and
compatible grouping of land uses within the City and, therefore, presents
no unreasonable hazard.
• C. "Specific problems with the proposed location of the use, as
set forth in any Staff Review or Technical Assistance Report, will be
overcome." The Planning Commission finds that the proposed amendment to
the Zoning Ordinance satisfies all specific problems raised by the planning
reports prepared by the City Planner.
d. "The proposed use fully complies with the Comprehensive Plan
of the City of Spring Park." The Planning Commission finds that the
proposed amendment of the Zoning Ordinance fully complies with the
Comprehensive Plan of the City of Spring Park.
e. "The proposed use fully complies with all applicable Federal
law, Minnesota statutes and regulations." The Planning Commission is not
aware of any violation of Federal law, Minnesota statutes or regulations by
the proposed amendment.

era
4. The planning reports dated March 17, 1989, May 10, 1989 and
June 14, 1989, prepared by the City Planner, Northwest Associated
Consultants, Inc., are incorporated herein.
II. REVISION OF LOT AREA REQUIREMENTS FOR Telo—FAMILY DWELLINGS
PERMITTED IN R-1 DISTRICTS.
1. Spring Park's Zoning Ordinance permits both single family and
two-family dwellings units in R-1 districts.
2. The present lot area requirements in the R-1 district are the
same for both single family and two-family dwellings.
3. Section 4, Subd. A(4) states that certain information is
required for all zoning amendment and conditional use permit applications.
The Planning Commission finds that none of this information is required in
this matter as it is not applicable to this proposal.
4. Section 4, Subd. B of the Zoning Ordinance requires the
• following showings in order that the protection and preservation of the
general welfare and the public health and safety is considered:
a. "Standards set forth in this ordinance will be, at all times,
complied with." The Planning Commission finds that the standards and
procedures set forth in the Zoning Ordinance for the amendment of such
ordinance have been complied with in this case.
b. "The proposed use presents no unreasonable hazard to the
surrounding area and community as a whole." The Planning Commission finds
that the proposed amendment of the Zoning Ordinance to increase the lot
area requirements for two-family dwellings in R-1 districts will benefit
the City by providing for a decrease in densities in R-1 districts where
two-family dwellings are constructed. Larger lot area requirements will
accommodate the additional needs for space the development of two-family
-3-
dwellings in R-1 districts require, eg. outdoor storage space and open
space. No unreasonable hazard is presented.
C. "Specific problems with the proposed location of the use, as
set forth in any Staff Review or Technical Assistance Report, will be
overcome." The Planning Commission finds that the proposed amendment
adequately meets the concerns raised in the Planning Report prepared by the
City Planner dated May 17, 1989.
d. "The proposed use fully complies with the Comprehensive Plan
of the City of Spring Park." The Planning Commission finds that the
proposed amendment fully complies with the City's Comprehensive Plan.
e. "The proposed use fully complies with all applicable Federal
law, Minnesota statutes and regulations." The Planning Commission is not
aware of any violation of Federal law, Minnesota statutes or regulations by
the proposed amendment.

REGULAR MEETING - September 18, 1989

The Mayor stated it is unusual for a brand new house to be granted
a variance, but there had been a similar situation at 4652 West Arm
Road due to the configuration of the lot. Council discussed the fact
Mr. Hughes had to stay 50 feet from the lakeshore. It was determined
the proposed building could be moved one foot more to the east to
utilize all of their property. Council questioned the road easement
on the west side of the properties in this area. Mr. Hughes stated
it was a common driveway at this point. When the property had been
split the agreement was the driveway would be on the east side.
Council was concerned about the access for public safety. The Mayor
requested Hoogenakker be reminded of this agreement. Kraemer inquired
if the house could be re -designed to eliminate thevariance. It was
determined the proposed house could be moved over an additional foot
on the east side, reducing the amount of the variance.
Motion by Weeks second by Dill to approve a 2 foot 2 inch variance on
the west side for a deck. Upon roll call Rockvam, Widmer, Dill and
Weeks all voted aye. Kraemer voted no. Motion declared carried with
a 4/5 vote.
c) Planning Commission - Recommendation - Minutes
The Mayor suggested a form be
Attorney that would guide the
item for the Findings of Fact
d) Wm. Schritter
obtained from the City Planner or the
Planning Commission and cite item by
at public hearings.
Mr. Schritter was present at this meeting and the meeting of September
5th to request his proposed project be grandfathered in and he was ask-
ing for some type of relief, Mr. Schritter stated whatever would work
best. Council determined the material should be reviewed. After
consultation it was determined Mr. Schritter's proposal could not be
grandfathered in because there were no vested rights, but Mr. Schritter
could apply for a variance according to the provisions of the Zoning
Ordinance. Mr. Schritter asked the Council if they wanted his project
of 4 new homes or not. Mr. Schritter stated if he had to go back to
the Planning Commission he felt they would have a hostile feeling,
and he would not get a fair shake, and Council was not working for his
benefit. Widmer stated he did not think Mr. Schritter had been mis-
treated. Mr. Schritter questioned if Council had acted legally and
maybe another opinion was necessary. Council felt Mr. Schritter did
not act on his first proposed plans and let his plans expire. Mr.
Schritter stated he felt the opinion from the Attorney had held up his
project. The Mayor replied it was not contingent to the Attorney's
approval, but Mr. Schritter could still build 3 units on the property.
Mr. Schritter was again reminded of his options.

it could in some cases be potentially hazardous 9 y
A letter of recommendation is expected from the Fire Department.
c) Presentation of Alternates 2 & 4 - John Karwacki
The Mayor introduced John Karwacki, the City Engineer from Schoell &
Madson, Inc. Karwacki presented maps of each of the proposals. These
were Alternates #2 and #4. The Engineer had presented to Council five
different options. Options #2 & #4 were picked by Council. Alternate
#2 was to utilize existing pavement and add a 10 foot bituminous strip
on railroad right of way, the drainage will stay the same. Alternate
#4 would be construct a new 25 foot road with a 10 foot strip of rail-
road right of way, and include curbs and storm sewers for drainage.
The Engineer passed out alternative comparison rating tables for Alter-
nate #2 & #4, to show how much it would benefit the property owners, and
the estimated costs per square foot for each property. He felt this
method of assessment would be best. No property would be takenwith these
proposals, but the utility poles would have to be moved, at no extra
cost.
A letter dated July 13, 1989 from Hennepin County was noted stating
Hennepin County would pay for $7,789.05 towards this project.
The Mayor requested persons present to identify themselves prior to
• speaking for the record.
d) Open Discussion
The following persons spoke:
Lynn Rappe - 4308 West Arm Road - He inquired why the Fire Department
did not respond when a propane tank was installed near West Arm Road.
He stated it looks like the Mayor wants the road improvements, and
why should the residents be nice to the railroad, he also stated he
was a tax payer and is already over burdened with taxes, and no other
Council would consider the improvements with so many people against it.
Mike Lunning - 4564 West Arm Road - He stated there had been a drain-
age problem on the last 4 lots, but the residents had solved the problem
themselves, they bought the property because it was on a private road,
and estimated costs never come in on budget. Lunning felt there were
18 parcels, but only 9 would benefit. He also stated the residents
have not asked for anything, and they maintain the road themselves,
and he was against the project.
Kevin Stephenson - 4520 West Arm Road - He inquired if soil samples
had been taken and stated some of the property had been used as a dump,
the road is approximately 101-, feet wide, and a former owner had put

bituminous on part of the road with speed bumps, the speed bumps have
been removed.
Peter Van Beek - 4428 West Arm Road - Mr. Van Beek stated he was also
representing Edna Madsen, at 4434 West Arm Road. They were against
the project and against any money being spent. Van Beek stated he
had the largest amount of property and inquired about how it would be
assessed, he felt another estimate should be required. He said the
roadway between his home and Hoogenakket's was approximately 20 or 25
feet wide. Fire hydrants were also discussed. There are two on West
Arm Road that would be involved. The cost of moving them the Engineer
stated was about $1,000.00 each.
Roy O'Donnell 4512 West Arm Road - He stated he was for the road im-
provements and it would improve the whole area, he also stated it was
one of the biggest changes Mound had made and being a former fireman
the road needed to be wider. He also asked if this was a one time
chance to obtain property from the railroad. He also felt the residents
were getting 2 of the road for nothing.
The Administrator stated most of the easements for the road project
had been obtained by the City. The property owners asked how this
project had evolved because they had not requested it. Ronnkvist ask-
ed when the City bought the road, how much the City paid, and how they
could have a public hearing when the City doesn't own the road.
The Mayor stated the City did not own the property, but is trying to
acquire enough property for a road because of public safety and in-
creased density in the area. Widmer explained the public hearing was
to let the residents decide if they wanted a City road. The residents
stated representatives from the Fire Department were checking the road
the day of the public hearing, and the fire department told some of the
residents they could get their vehicles down the existing road. Mike
Lunning stated the fire department had not checked the road before.
Lunning aslo asked if the railroad was being abandoned.
Laura Geib - 4550 West Arm Road - She stated she would like to hear
all five of the Engineer's proposals. The Engineer explained Alternate
01 would widen the road to 25 feet. Alternate #2 would use part of
their property (10 feet wider, towards the south) and the edge of rail-
road property. Alternate #5 would cut the road thru to West Arm West.
She also stated she wanted the area kept natural because they don't
have to worry about strangers.
Kraemer asked if the residents would be in favor of the road if there
were no costs involved. Most of the attending people said they still
would not want it.

Kevin O'Neil - 4560 West Arm Road - He stated he was happy with the
road the way it is, and now passing cars pull off to the side to let
others pass. He also asked if Council had considered adding fill to
the road.
Marilyn Ronnkvist - 4484 West Arm Road - She stated there was a lot of
vegetation from her property to the Lord Fletcher's Apartments, who
was responsible for it? (That is railroad property).
Kraemer stated he would like to see the recommendation of the Fire
Department before a decision is made.
Sharon Rappe - 4308 West Arm Road - She stated she was not for a road
going thru to the old Advance site. They did not want more traffic.
Pam Welch - 4590 West Arm Road - She stated they could not get to their
property and asked if they could build their own road.
Laura Geib stated she would like the minutes to show in black and
white how many people were for and against the road improvement. She
also asked if their concerns would be what they want.
Council decided to pass the sign in sheet around and have the people
put yes or no on the sheet and which lot was theirs. This sheet will

• at the public hearing. Council was concerned how liable the City
would be in case of accidents. Moving the fire hydrant was also
discussed. Council felt it would be a benefit to obtain the ease-
ments from the railroad needed to widen the road. The Mayor also
suggested moving the power poles ten feet to railroad property.
Motion by Weeks second by Kraemer to pursue obtaining a ten foot
easement on railroad property for West Arm Road Central. All votes
were aye. Motion declared carried.
In discussion it was determined the most effective way to resolve
the problem would be to ask the City Attorney about how liable the
City would be, and eliminate further costs. The Comprehensive Plan
was also discussed. It was suggested perhaps the Council should re-
view the Comprehensive Plan to see if goals are realistic.
b) Commercial Lot Size
A request to split a commerical lot was brought before office staff.
Our current ordinance does not havea minimum size requirement or any
setbacks, but ten feet from a County road or a residential district.
The Administrator requested a lot size be drafted for newly created
commercial lots. The Mayor felt they did have some control, because
lot divisions have to come before the Council, and suggested commerical
• lots not be split unless a plan is presented. The Administrator suggest-
ed Council adopt a policy that a survey and a site plan be presented
for a project.
Motion by Dill second by Widmer to draft a proposal for a policy that
would include a viable project, a survey and plan for a newly created
commercial lot. All votes were aye. Motion declared carried. This
