( #3) MORATORIUM SHORELAND R GU A Q S
(##3) MORATORIUM SHOREUAND REDU�A tl S
ORDINANCE 96, SECOND SERIES
The Affidavit of Publication was noted.
Callahan explained that the Council has before them an
ordinance establishing a moritorium on land subdivision for
properties within 1,000 feet of certain lakes classified within
Orono, and along certain waterways and creeks. The mortorium
proposal comes from the Lake Use Committee because the City is
required by the DNR to establish new shoreland regulations prior
to the end of 1992, if not before. The regulations will extend
not only to Lake Minnetonka, but to all lakes and, certain
tributaries in Orono. He summarized that because the current
hardcover ordinances do not generally apply to lakes other than
Lake Minnetonka within Orono, these other areas may be greatly
affected. The moritorium is expected to last up to one year.
Meridith Howell, a representative of a land seller within
Orono, asked if the Council intended to provide a variance
procedure within the moritorium ordinance for properties which
clearly would meet the new requirements.
Jabbour noted that is why the moritorium is being imposed as
the Council wishes to forestall any subdivisions to protect
future land owners of the possible need for variances on newly
subdivided properties.
Goetten wanted it to be known that the proposed shoreland
regulations do not substantially change the position of Orono's
current ordinances. She noted that it should be stated in the
newspapers that Orono is not placing more restrictions on
shoreland and that this adoption of the shoreland regulations is
required by the DNR.
Callahan noted that the major impact is not on property
surrounding Lake Minnetonka. He also noted that the property
being annexed by Long Lake is not covered by this moritorium.
Barrett added the ordinance should be changed under Section
5 on Page 2 to read "and that a failure to grant a variance would
cause an undue hardship for the applicant ".
Callahan explained that by signing the agreement with the
DNR to adopt the ordinance by February 1992, the Council may
receive money back from the DNR. He noted that it is the desire
of the Council to get this ordinance adopted as soon as possible.
It was moved by Goetten, seconded by Butler, to adopt
Ordinance ##96, Second Series, setting an interim ordinance
moritorium on land subdivisions for certain properties in Orono,
for a period not to exceed one year. Ayes 4, nays 0.

(##6) JOINT TRAIL — HENNEPIN COUNTY /CITY OF ORONO
Richard Flint, Park Commission Chair, was present to explain
the current bike /hike trail status. He noted the Commission
feels there is a need for a north /south trail system. He also
noted that there is currently two things lacking in the process:
money and expertise. Flint explained that the Commission has
approached Hennepin County and reviewed their conceptual plan to
extend from Baker Park southward. The Park Commission has
contacted Hennepin County Parks to enlist their support.
Currently the Commission is looking at a trail extending from
Baker Park southward along the east side of Old Crystal Bay Road
to the Luce Line Trail. Hennepin County Parks is willing to
contribute $132,000 to the development of that trail. The Park
Commission is agreeable to this plan.
Flint noted that the Park Commission is requesting
conceptual approval for the Park Commission and staff to work
jointly with Hennepin County Parks in developing this bike /hike
trail. He introduced representatives of Hennepin Co.unty Parks:
Jim White, District Representative of Hennepin County Parks; Doug
Bryan, Superintendent of Hennepin County Parks; and two members
of staff Bill Miller and Don King.
Callahan asked if the trail is proposed to run through the
City facility property.
Flint explained that he had been working with the previous
City Administrator on this, but realized that it is not
incorporated within the site plan currently.
Goetten noted that the City Council is having a meeting the
following day and Flint should contact Jack Boarman prior to that
meeting to update him on this trail system. She also wanted to
know if the total cost has been determined.
Flint noted that it depends upon many factors of which land
acquisition and easements come into play. He felt the Park
Dedication Funds should be used for the development of this
trail.

NINT TRAIL — CONT.
Jabbour noted that it was nice to see Hennepin County
involved with the project.
It was moved by Butler, seconded by Goetten, to approve
conceptual authorization to direct the Park Commission and staff
to work jointly with Hennepin County Parks in the development of
a bike /hike trail system through Orono. Ayes 4, nays 0.
Teri Brandenburg, 2775 Silver View Drive, explained that
last year prior to building their home, she had called the City
and was told that nothing was planned in the near or distant
future for the east side of Old Crystal Bay Road North. She also
noted trees that were required to be cut by the City on her
property, after specifically requesting them to be left. She
questioned why Old Crystal Bay Road would be better than any of
the other north /south routes.
Butler noted that Old Crystal Bay Road is the only
intersection with a controlled semiphore.
Flint noted that it also would be very expensive on the
other side because of the location of the telephone poles.
Gerhardson noted that there is 66' of right —of —way for Old
Crystal Bay Road. He also explained that it was he who talked to
Ms. Brandenburg's husband and had told him that at the time
Hennepin County Parks had shown no interest in the trail system
and if acquisition of property were to become necessary, all
involved property owners would be contacted. He also explained
the trees cut were to deter a future drainage problem and the
cutting was stopped at the request of the builder. The trees
were in the right —of —way.
Bob Will, 160 Old Crystal Bay Road North, was puzzled why
the need for the trail at all. He noted-that there is not
pedistr -an traffic along this stretch.
Goetten noted the survey taken of residents indicating an
overwhelming request for a bike trail.
Flint felt that trail systems such as this have become an
asset in other communities and they would try to use the right -
of —way wherever possible and will certainly work with adjacent
property owners.
Brandenburg wanted to' know who will be responsible for
maintenance.
Callahan explained these types of issues will be addressed
if the trail actually is developed. He felt that in general the
Council favored the proposal.
El

Jabbour felt that Orono is really lagging behind in
development of this type of system compared with surrounding
communities.

Mr. Thomas Judd was present for the review.
Gerhardson explained the applicants request a conditional
use permit and variance to allow day use activities with some
overnight camping, and to allow structural repairs to a deck
located within the lakeshore protected zone. Applicants are
also requesting the vacation of the dedicated right —of —way.
Mabusth explained that the portion to be vacated runs
between the two parcels owned by applicant and together the
parcels equal the 5 acre minimum lot requirement. She also noted
that the Planning Commission requested conditions to be
incorporated within the resolution of approval.
Butler asked if the concerns of the adjacent neighbor,
Erickson, have been satisfied.
Mabusth noted that all concerns have been addressed and that
the City has received no further input from either the Ericksons
or their attorney.
Butler felt that the use was in keeping with the zoning for
the property, but she felt that the use should be properly
inspected.
Goetten asked about the deck to be constructed.

( #9) ZONING FILE #1665 THOMAS MCCARTHY,
1424 BALDUR PARK ROAD
VARIANCE — RESOLUTION #3008
Thomas McCarthy and his builder, Michial Mularoni, were
present for this application.
Callahan explained that this matter has returned from the
Planning Commission with a unanimous recommendation for approval.
Mabusth noted that applicant's amended plan proposes a
relocated detached garage. She referred to the lot coverage
ordinance exception which states that no matter what size the lot
is, a property is allowed 1,500 s.f. for the principal residence
and garage. The applicant proposes an amended application with
1,499.9 s.f. of total area combined for residence and proposed
garage. The Planning Commission had recommend that the proposal
be amended by removing 31 s.f. of hardcover in order to satisfy
the guidelines of this ordinance exception.
It was moved by Butler, seconded by Jabbour, to adopt
Resolution #3008, granting requested variances to permit the
replacement of an existing deck within the lakeshore protected
area and the construction of a 24'x22' detached garage within the
street yard for property located at 1424 Baldur Park Road. Ayes,

REQUEST FOR ADMINISTRATIVE APPEAL
Mabusth explained the Mr. Walker currently has an after —the-
fact variance application before the City. He is proposing to
square off a portion of his house by the addition of a second
story and additions to existing deck. She explained the Planning
Commission tabled his application.
Walker noted that the deck portion which encroaches within
0 -75' has been eliminated.
Mabusth explained where the second story addition is
proposed, this would be viewed as an intensification of structure
where excessive amounts of hardcover exist.
Richard Schieffer, attorney for Mr. Walker, noted that the
building permit is being withheld because of a zoning issue, but
felt this should not be done as the structure meets building code
standards.
Jabbour felt that the Council should do whatever can be done
to help the applicant, but wanted to know what assurances does
the City have that the requirements be met.
Goetten wanted to know what liability the City would have if
this were allowed.
Schieffer explained the owners have resided there for 20
years. They hired a builder who did some demo work inside,
applied for the permit, and then continued beyond demolition and
started building the structure. The applicant is requesting an
extension because his mortgage commitment expires October 6th and
the builder estimates at least 6 weeks of work.
Butler suggested that the permit be issued conditioned on
all documentation for the September Planning Commission meeting
be submitted by the deadline date, and if not, a Stop Work Order
be placed on the project.

R9QW98T FOR ADMINISTRATIVE APPEAL — CONT.
Schieffer felt that the building and zoning codes should
operate independently from each other.
Jabbour felt that repeal of the administrative decision
would be negative precedent setting and could be setting the City
up for a big misunderstanding.
Barrett explained what the applicant is requesting is an
appeal of an administrative decision. He noted that if this is
done and the permit granted, the decision could not be reversed
later.
Callahan noted that the mortgage commitment can be redone
and that zoning matters take precedent. He felt that Council
should uphold the action of staff.
Walker noted that in reference to the plastic liner, they
would be willing to remove it.
Callahan explained that Council is very reluctant to grant
permission to obtain the building permit without an approval
recommendation from the Planning Commission.
It was moved by Callahan, seconded by Jabbour, to uphold the
staff decision to deny issuance of a building permit for John
Walker, 1310 Spruce Place, until an approval recommendation from
the Planning Commission is given. Ayes 4, nays 0.
(##12) MCCULLEY ROAD BID AWARD
It was moved by Butler, seconded by Jabbour, to award the
bid for the McCulley Road Storm Sewer Project to, Bituminous
Construction and Contracting for an amount of $30,569.75 and that
the funding will be used from the Municipal State Aid Fund (MSA).
Ayes 4; nays 0.,
(##13) STUBBS BAY FEASIBILITY STUDY
Cook explained several modifications to the Stubbs Bay Sewer
Project, which are: inclusion of Oxford Road and Cygnet Place to
expand to the Stubbs Bay northwest and northeast areas;
development of trunk system consisting of lift stations and
forcemain stations from Tonkawa to Leaf Street; and the additions
of a trunk line near Cygnet Place rather than a gravity which
would- be difficult because of the topography. He informed the
Council that unit costs range from $10,570 to 20,320. This
figure does not include all of the properties in the northwest
area because of possible combinations.
Callahan noted that since the report had not been made
available to residents in the area prior to the meeting, this
matter should be tabled. He felt copies of the report should be
sent to all affected property owners.

STUBBS BAY FEASIBILITY STUDY — CONT.
Gerhardson noted that the schedule can be modified to
reflect the tabling at this time, noting the need to keep moving
on this so as to start the project in the spring of 1992.
Cook requested input from the Committee working on getting
this project through.
It was moved by Callahan, seconded by Jabbour, to table
review of the feasibility study to allow time to send a copy to
all affected property owners in the study. This item will be
brought back to the Council for consideration at the October 14th
meeting. Ayes 4, nays 0.

MAYOR /COUNCIL REPORT
Callahan noted that the City has decided to enter into the
shoreland agreement with the DNR, with the substance of the
agreement that the City will adopt the shoreland management
ordinance before February 5, 1992 and provide the DNR a draft 60
days before that deadline, thereby entitled to received one half
of the cost of drafting the ordinance of up to $5,000.
It was moved by Callahan, seconded by Butler, to enter into
the DNR's shoreland grant agreement as submitted by the DNR.
Ayes 4, nays 0.•
Callahan noted that the time has come to consider the
situation with the neighboring city, Long Lake, with the
following arising:
1. Police Contract — The City of Long Lake has not paid
what we think they owe for the 1991 police contract, because
they had budgeted for an amount less- than the contract
called for, therefore not having enough budgeted to pay us
the full amount. A meeting was held to discuss the then
current contract at which the Long Lake City Council denied
knowledge of what the contract was or even how it came
about, and rather wanted to discuss how the Police
Department should be run.
Negotiations with their city attorney by our attorney have
not been about the, contract, but rather about a
philosophically desireable contract, and whether it should
be better done some other way. The actual dollar difference
is rather small, $3,000 to 5,000, but our attorney fees are
adding up.
X
MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING — ,AUGUST 26, 1991
MAYOR'S REPORT — C p�
MAYOR'S REPORT s C80 ,
He noted that the 1992 contract is under scrutiny.
Negotiations have started some time ago, but since they do
not have any clue as to what they are trying to negotiate or
idea of where they have started from, it is hard. Long Lake
seems to be negotiating from the newspaper: 1) they have
decided they might cancel the contract, 2) they have
empowered their attorney to cancel the contract if they
wanted to do so, 3) they have directed their City attorney
to cancel the contract, and 4) that they themselves have
canceled the contract. Long Lake has suggested that if
Orono stops talking about canceling the contract and be more
polite to them at meetings, all would be well. Also, the
Mayor of Long Lake has stated that they intend to have their
police department, and even if they didn't.plan to, they
could get the service much cheaper.elsewhere.
2. Fire Department Contract — Callahan noted that fire
service has been very good from Long Lake. Currently the
Long Lake Mayor has reduced their fire budget by $13,000.
The City of Orono pays four times as much to the budget as
Long Lake does, so this would reduce our portion, by 4 times
as much for a total reduction of $69,000. The Mayor of Long
Lake has also threatened to use fees for services by the
fire department such as burning down houses, exclusively for
the Long Lake General Fund. Callahan felt that by reducing
the fire budget this much, the citizens of Orono may not
receive good service.
3. Sewer Leaks — Callahan mentioned that the papers have
indicated that Long Lake feels we are flushing our toilets
too much and using up the capacity of Long Lake sewers,
contrary to the agreements we have with Long Lake and
contrary to the agreement with Metropolitan Waste Control.
Callahan noted that the cause of these comments appears to
be from.the fact that they are having leaks.in their pipes,
a °nd• some people think th -is does nat relate to Orono's use..
Through all testing done to remedy this problem, none have
shown this to be Orono's fault. Callahan felt that we are
spending much money and time to make them happy without a
purpose of our own.
Callahan explained that it appears that in both the areas of
police and fire service, some action should be taken. He
directed the City Attorney to supply the City with a report on
the status of the police contract negotiations. He also directed
Barrett to concentrate his efforts on only the terms of the
contract and violations or not violations thereof and not on the
desires of Long Lake's philosophical discussion of the inner
workings of the department.,
Callahan said that serious consideration should be given
to simply terminating the respective police contract and not
negotiating with them any more.
10
MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING — AUGUST 25, 1991
MAYOR'S REPORT — CONT.
Callahan directed the Public Works to cease discussion with
Long Lake concerning how much of our water runs into their pipes.
He suggested that staff thank them for the information and
politely say goodbye. He felt that we shouldn't cease polite
discourse with them.
Callahan felt that the time has come to divorce ourselves
from the situation, perhaps for a 2 -3 year period, by not
entering into any contracts, etc. with them.
Callahan noted that the City of Orono should move rapidly to
build the water tower to relieve them of the burden of our water
situation.
Jabbour felt that it is not appropriate to negotiate on a
new police contract while payments are withheld on the current
one.
Barrett summarized the situation: a bill was submitted, they
had 30 days in which to appeal the bill which has lapsed, Orono
agreed to provide Long Lake with a letter explaining expeditures.
Barrett understood that Long Lake's attorney had said that
because they think there are uncertainties that they want to get
rid of, they are proposing to cancel the contract entirely and
draft a new one.
Jabbour felt that the City Council should do what is best
for Orono. He also explained that in the past he was very
critical of the former Council in regards to negotiations with
Long Lake. He noted that after several attempts to meet with
Long Lake and work through situations nothing has really been
accomplished. He also explained that he has visited several
other police departments to get an idea on how they work. He
felt that they do not understand the fundamentals of running a
business. Jabbour explained that the Orono Counci °1 delegates
decision making to staff, where Long Lake does not. Their
Council feels they must have a hands —on in every area.
Callahan felt that the new administrator should be directed
to review the fire contract with the fire department to find out
what affect the budget cut will have on them and whether it will
affect us and what we can do to remedy it.
Jabbour explained the Long Lake budget cut was 10% of the
overall budget, 80% of the Long Lake portion. Their remaining
contribution was only $3,000.
Butler wanted to know ff any one in Long Lake has considered
the impact to their fire department if Orono reciprecated in kind
if we deducted the same percentage of our responsibility to the
fire department.

MAMW § REPORT — CONT.
Charles Kelley, Planning Commission Chair, questioned what
the contract is based on.
Kuehn noted that is was based on valuation strictly.
Kelley felt that this was unfair and the contract should be
based on population not valuation.
Jabbour noted that it was his understanding that they were
going to use the money collected from fire department burns for
the Long Lake General Fund rather than the fireman's retirement
fund. He felt that the Council should instruct the City
Administrator to look for emergency fire coverage.
Butler noted that Mayor Peterson had spoken to the Mound.
Fire Department and wanted to know if she was. discussing their
provision for retirement and' disability or about expanding
coverage.
Gerhardson noted that she was concerned about the retirement
fund.
Butler noted that in the resume of Mr. Moorse, one of the
things he has done was put together a voluteer fire department
and perhaps he could do it again.
Callahan noted that investigation was done by the former
Administrator as to satellite fire stations. This should be
looked into further. He wanted the current and future contracts
for both police and fire to be placed on the agenda for the
September 9th meeting._
Jabbour asked if staff should be sending out RFPs for
attorneys regarding criminal procedures.
4
Ca- llahan explained that Barrett had mentioned that it may be
better for Orono to have another criminal prosecutor, possibly
someone who does not have downtown rent payments, because
payments of fines and costs that are awarded to the City have
been cut down quite a bit. This should be put on the agenda
under the Attorney's report for the September 9th agenda.
