LAKE MINNETONKA CONSERVATION DISTRICT - JOELLEN HURR, REPRESENTATIVE Hurr referred to the invitation to a boat tour and luncheon sponsored by the LMCD to be held August 7, 1993. She asked that members wishing to attend contact her. Hurr reported the Board will hold their regular meeting on Wednesday, July 28th. Lakeside Marina, Navarre Cove Homeowners' Association, and a dock area variance for property on Ethel Avenue will be discussed. Mayor Callahan clarified that the LMCD is recommending prosecution of the Lakeside Marina for the off -lake storage. 1 i MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 26, 1993 LMCD REPORT - CONT. Hurr noted that the LMCD has not licensed this marina for such storage. Mayor Callahan noted that the LMCD's policy to license off -lake storage is contrary to the policy of the City. Jabbour stated the LMCD's dry stacking ordinance is totally inconsistent. He noted the LMCD encourages the use of marinas for lake access on a daily basis, but feels it is wrong to allow the same owner to store their boat at the marina and put it in the water whenever he wishes. He asked the difference. Hurr noted the storage of boats and the parking become an issue. Mayor Callahan stated he does not believe that the LMCD has the power to deal with the storage of boats on land. • Hurr stated since she lives on that bay, she is glad one • organization is looking to remedy the problems as Orono is not. She stated she wishes Orono would just quit paying their dues to the LMCD because they are sending mixed messages. Jabbour suggested they schedule a work session to determine how they will handle the situation with the LMCD. It was moved by Mayor Callahan, seconded by Jabbour, to instruct Orono's LMCD representative to vote against the prosecution of Jim Dunn of Lakeside Marina for off -lake storage of boats, and request the representative to convey to the LMCD that their Statute is in contradiction with the policy of the City of Orono. Ayes 3, nays 1. Hurr voted nay. Motion carried. Mayor Callahan referred to the correspondence between the City of Shorewood and the LMCD regarding the milfoil program. Hurr stated she understood that the milfoil program was not a part of the budget. PLANNING COMMISSION COMMENTS There were no comments. PUBLIC COMMENTS There were no comments.

Statutes, letter on internal controls, and the management report. Kelley asked if he has done a cost analysis of services either for Orono or similar cities. Malloy stated that has not been done for Orono, but has provided that information for other cities. Kelley felt that may be important if the cities begin to share services. Elgibrunt reviewed the enterprise fund balances beginning on Page 9 of the report. She noted they recommend a review of the water and sewer rate structure to determine if funding is adequate to cover • current and future expenditures, and consideration of a refund of certain general obligation bonds for a cost savings. • Malloy stated overall the City's financial records are accurate the City is in good financial shape. He added he feels the City is well managed and has looked ahead to determine future needs. Hurr asked if a study has ever been recommended regarding the enterprise funds which currently indicate a deficit. Malloy indicated he does not remember such a recommendation, but there was discussion about matching rates. Moorse indicated due to a study conducted in 1990 -1991, the Navarre water rates were increased. Mayor Callahan thanked the auditors and congratulated Tom Kuehn on the fine job. It was moved by Mayor Callahan, seconded by Kelley, to direct staff to study the recommendations of the auditors and report back to the Council at the last meeting in August. Ayes 5, nays 0. 3 MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 26, 1993 POLICE CHIEF REPORT Sullivan presented the Council with statistical data through the end of May, 1993 and reviewed its content. Jabbour expressed frustration of hearing about the dissolution of the canine unit through other channels. Sullivan apologized, but indicated he has reported the issue through the appropriate chain of command. Kelley asked the savings from this. Sullivan stated it is a minimal amount, approximately $500- 1,000, but the saving is not the reason for ceasing the program, but rather the fact that the dog was not performing at an acceptable level. Hurr asked if the initial decision to begin the canine unit was approved by the Council. is Sullivan agreed that it had been approved by Council for a term of three years, ending in March of 1993. The program was recently terminated because of the unacceptable performance level of the dog. Hurr felt the Council should have been involved in the disbanding of the program. Sullivan indicated the matter would have been presented to the Council during the budget process to determine if they wished the program to continue in 1994, but that would mean purchasing a new dog and he would have recommended against it. Jabbour stated the City is run by the Council, and they should not be informed after - the -fact on issues of importance. The Council should be allowed to make conscious, well - planned decisions for its citizens. Jabbour questioned the status of the agreements with the contract cities. Sullivan reported he has presented the agreement to Spring Park, where it was well received, and plans to present it to Minnetonka Beach and Long Lake in the near future.

Mayor Callahan noted that the issue of allowing flag lots does not seem to be in accordance with what the Council thought they were adopting with the new shoreland regulations, and the Council seems to feel the previous ordinance contained a better policy regarding such lots. It was moved by Mayor Callahan, seconded by Goetten, to invoke a moratorium on the creation of flag -type lots for a three month period to allow Council the opportunity to review the ordinance. Jabbour questioned their legal obligation. Staunton opined that a moratorium review and study planning issues applicable situation.

The owner to the north of the tax forfeit property has indicated he is not interested in the property, and they are not certain of the intent of the owner to the west.

U 0 • MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 26, 1993 ( #20) BIKE /HIKE TRAIL UPDATE Moorse explained there are three major issues outstanding: the landscaping, the agreement with Hennepin Parks, and the cost. He noted Hennepin Parks has submitted a landscape plan, which was reviewed by the Park Commission and Council jointly, and sent on to the property owners. Gerhardson noted he met with the Hiles and Brandenbergs to discuss the plan, and explain the possibility of a retaining wall. They expressed opposition to the retaining wall. Jabbour asked if all affected property owners received a copy of the plan. Moorse indicated it was only sent to owners who expressed a concern in the past. Jabbour reiterated that the residents have indicated the City has • done a poor job of communicating and that is why Council directed the staff to present the plan to all owners. Moorse indicated Hennepin Parks has noted the changes to the agreement suggested by Orono can be dealt with through an amendment to the agreement, and Hennepin Parks is generally amenable to Orono's suggestions. He noted the cost is greater than normal for a trail due to the necessity to make room along the right -of -way and the need to install storm sewer and gutters. The City will however realize a savings by jointly constructing the trail as opposed to doing one on their own. Doug Hile presented the Council with a letter of opposition. Mayor Callahan commented that the replacement of the trees may not be until next year during the appropriate planting season, especially if the trail is only constructed to the bridge this year. Hile noted a discrepancy in right -of -way easement location. He felt the majority of trees to be removed were located on his property. Hurr noted that obviously the City must work within its own right - of -way. • Jabbour stated he thought that due to the proximity of the Hile's septic system to the property line, all the landscaping would.need to be located on their property in order to provide a buffer from the trail. D MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 26, 1993 BIKE /HIKE TRAIL - CONT. Hile stated he has submitted a written description of what they want in exchange for the removal of their trees, and added they do not want a retaining wall, but would prefer a berm. Mrs. Hile stated she was told by staff that all their trees along the lot line would have to be removed to facilitate the trail, and would be getting 13 replacement trees. Hile noted he is also concerned about the trail expediting the flow of water to the ponding area in their yard, and felt an engineer should review the drainage issue. Mayor Callahan indicated that all of the Council members agree that they are not forcing the Hiles to give an easement for the trail. Hile stated but it has been threatened that if they do not give the easement for the trail they will end up with a retaining wall and fence. • Mrs. Hile stated they are willing to give the easement for the trail if they are assured they will receive similar value replacement trees. Craig Brandenberg stated he has counted the number of trees involved, measuring from the center of the road, which is approximately 50 trees 30 +' high and at least 2" in diameter. 30 of those trees are definitely within the right -of -way. He noted that Gerhardson has indicated that the trail can not be constructed unless all the trees in this area are removed. He stated he had not seen a plan for landscaping along his property until recently, and that plan is not adequate. Hurr questioned whether the trail can be built totally in the right -of -way in this area. Cook responded that the trail cannot be built without a retaining wall or an easement. Kelley expressed his opposition to the trail as follows: 1. The cost estimate is very expensive; $340,000+ provided by the City. He felt that is greater than the entire sum of money spent by the City on park acquisition. He also felt there was not enough detail on. • local use and need for the trail. 10 • MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 26, 1993 BIKE /HIKE TRAIL - CONT. 2. He felt just because Hennepin Parks is willing to pay half of the cost, does not make it a good deal. He stated he is against the philosophy that they must spend the money or someone else will with respect to Hennepin Parks funding. He stated the City has no idea where they are going with the park system or what they want. 3. He suggested they consider tieing the trail connecting Baker Park and the Luce Line in with the upgrade of County Road 6 and reduce the cost. 4. He asked where they are going to acquire the funding. He suggested the use of MSA funds for storm sewer to provide for a trail is not acceptable. He noted the trail is costing $200,000 per mile for a trail we are not sure we need. • 5. He stated if they destroy the trees and install curb and gutter they are destroying the rural character of Orono. He asked why the destruction of the trees are any different than those along lakeshore property. C7 Hurr noted there was a survey which indicated a need for trails. She questioned what the City provides for the age group 35 to 60, and felt the trail is an excellent opportunity to provide for that category of residents. Jabbour stated he would be happy to do nothing, but personally would like to see the trail constructed. He stated they cannot proceed until staff has obtained the consent of the property owners. Goetten agreed that they need an overall park plan. She indicated the residents do not feel their questions and concerns have been answered. She asked how the Hiles have felt threatened. Hile answered the alternative to providing an easement is less desireable. He stated they are not in favor of the bike trail, but are willing to concede if they are satisfied with the landscape plan. He expressed fear that if they are unhappy, there are many more residents feeling the same way. 11 C7 MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 26, 1993 BIKE /HIKE TRAIL - CONT. Hurr pointed out she sat on the Council during the time prior to the construction of the Luce Line Trail, and there was plenty of opposition, now all feel it is a valuable asset. She indicated she has seen the plan submitted by the Hiles which calls for a $10,000 landscape plan for their property alone. She questioned why Kelley was in favor of cooperative services but not of a joint trail. Kelley responded that he is in favor of reducing government cost for services, but added they just do not have the funding for the trail. He pointed out that Orono did not fund any portion of the Luce Line Trail. Mayor Callahan reviewed the process which has taken place to this point. He pointed out all meetings have been public and held in accordance. He stated the Park Commission and the majority of the Council seems satisfied with the landscape plan. He suggested they table action on this item until a survey can be provided of the area clarifying the ownership of the trees, allowing staff time to • explain to the residents why the landscape plan is acceptable to Council. He suggested they extend the bids, and obtain written approval from Hennepin Parks regarding the cost and work out the mechanical process for amending the agreement. It was moved by Mayor Callahan, seconded by Goetten, to table action on this item subject to the conditions set forth above. Hile asked if the Council is fiscally responsible to proceed with construction of the trail. He stated he is concerned they are spending money without rhyme or reason. Mayor Callahan stated he is also concerned about the dollar amount, but did not feel they are spending without rhyme or reason. And, in fact, the dollar amount has not increased much from the original feasibility report. Brandenberg agreed with Kelley on all points. Vote: Ayes 4, nays 1. Kelley voted nay. Motion carried. Jabbour asked the residents to put themselves in the Council's position of trying to protect the citizens of Orono by providing a buffer from the traffic to use as a trail. C7 12 i • MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 26, 1993 ( #21) REQUEST FOR FUNDING PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT Eva Hoer, PTO member, was present. She explained the background of the project, their goals and accomplishments to date. Hurr asked if they involved the various Park Commissions in the design process. Hoer stated due to her lack of knowledge in this area, she was unaware that the Park Commission could have provided a wealth of information. She noted the playground is designed to challenge different ages and abilities. The playground at Schumann Elementary is completed. Jabbour asked how they could proceed with only half the funding. Hoer explained they worked out a long range payment plan with the contractor. is Mayor Callahan noted that the School District wanted to improve the playground at the time of the referendum and inciuded $50,000 to do so. He asked what moved the PTO to increase that amount to $125,000. Hoer stated the playground can also be considered a neighborhood park. The School District has agreed not to limit the use of the structure, and has agreed to all the maintenance and liability. She pointed out that for a small investment the City will gain a very valuable asset. Goetten asked to table the decision to allow time to review the material. It was moved by Hurr, seconded by Kelley, to authorize funding of $10,000 from the Park Dedication Fund for the playground equipment at the Schumann Elementary School. Ayes 5, nays 0. Hoer stated they would be having a dedication in the fall and hoped the Council members would attend. Mayor Callahan recessed the meeting at 10:30 to 10:35 p.m. ( #22) COUNCIL PARTICIPATION IN CORN DAYS PARADE • No action required. 13 MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 26, 1993 ( #23) COUNTY ROAD 6 UPGRADE No action taken. ( #24) SALE OF SEWER PLANT PROPERTY Moorse reported the 4+ acre parcel was advertised and two bids were received. One bid was received prior to the deadline, and one bid was received 4 minutes after the deadline. The first bidder has expressed objection to acceptance of the second bid. Hurr asked if they are not bound by the published time. Staunton stated legally the City was not bound to follow the bidding process, and had established its own terms. He noted the terms would have to be followed if it were deemed that one party had a substantial advantage due to the extension of those terms. He stated in this case, both parties had the same opportunities. He added there may be some concern that the initial bidder may have bid differently had he known there was another bidder. He reminded • them that they can reject any and all bids, but that the bidding process does not offer them an opportunity to negotiate the price once the bids have been opened. Goetten stated their responsibility is to get the best bid for the City. She felt they should open both bids and reject if necessary. Bob Abdo, representative of the bidder, stated the terms were published. He stated his client had called and was told by staff that if the bid were late, it would be rejected. The day of the bidding the time clock was checked and the bidding process was closed prior to delivery of the second bid. Kelley expressed concern that they expedited the process too quickly not allowing enough time to adjacent property owners to determine if they wished to purchase. Abdo stated his client understood the rules of the game, but would be willing to negotiate after the opening if necessary. Jabbour asked if the appraisal was made public. Moorse stated only the appraised value was public. Jabbour indicated he has lost many bids due to being late. Hurr felt they were bound by the process they established. • 14 MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING HELD JULY 26, 1993 SALE OF SEWER PLANT PROPERTY - CONT. It was moved by Mayor Callahan, seconded by Hurr, to reject the second bid for the property due to the fact that it was received after the deadline. Ayes 5, nays 0. It was moved by Mayor Callahan, seconded by Kelley, to reject the first bid received based on the property was not sufficiently exposed to the public and it is unlikely the City has obtained the best price. Abdo asked that the bid be opened for consideration, or if the Council deemed necessary, open both bids for consideration. Mayor Callahan stated the purpose of rejecting both bids is so the City can obtain additional bids. He stated if he were the first bidder, he would not want the bid opened. Kelley stated he agreed with the bidder's attorney. • Mayor Callahan withdrew his motion, Kelley withdrew his second. It was moved by Mayor Callahan, seconded by Jabbour, to open the bid received for the sewer plant property. Ayes 5, nays 0. Moorse opened the bid and announced the offer is $300,000. Abdo noted his client is also willing to pay the $18,000+ for sewer, and $20,000+ for fill and agrees not to subdivide for 5 years. It was moved by Jabbour, seconded by Goetten, to direct the City Attorney to review the terms of the purchase agreement based on the criteria established by the Council and staff, and report at the next Council meeting. Kelley cautioned that he would not approve any variance if the property were subdivided in the future, and suggested the bidder review with staff the street improvements that will be required.
