CITY OF ORONO REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES FOR FEBRUARY 10, 1997 ROLL OPQ The Council met on the above mentioned date with the following members present: Mayor Gabriel Jabbour, Council Members J. Diann Goetten, Charles Kelley, Barbara Peterson, Richard Flint, and Charles Kelley. Representing Staff were City Administrator Ron Muerse, City Attorney Tom Radio, Building and Zoning Administrator teanne Mabusth, Planner/Zoning Administrator Elizabeth Van Zomeren, Public Services Director Greg Gappa, City Engineer Glenn Cook, and Recorder Sherry Frost. Mayor Jabbour called the meeting to order at 7:00 p m. (#1) OATH OF OFFICE - COUNCIL APPOINTEE, RICHARD FLINT City Administrator Moorse administered the Oath of Office of Council Member to Richard Flint. Mayor Jabbour welcomed Flint to the Council. (#2) RESIDENTS OF ORONO LANE AND COUNTY ROAD 15 INTERSECTION RECONSTRUCTION INFORMATION AND COMMENTS - RESOLUTION NO. 3840 Moorse asked Bruce Polaczyk of Hennepin County to present information on the site distance concerns related to the intersection ofOrono Lane and County Road 15. Polaczyk related the existing design of the intersection and the proposed design. He said discussions over the intersection included neighbor concerns, visual impacts, wetlands, safety, and cost. The e.xisting site distance of the intersection according to Polaczv k is 49 meters or 150' allowing for a 2-1/2 second reaction time. The proposed design wouid have a site distance of 108 meters or 355'. The negative side to the proposed design is its impact into the hillside requiring removal of trees and brush. 1 he County is proposing a 150' long retaining wall to reduce the impact of ihe construction line to the side of the hill. It would have an impact on a total of 3300 s.i or i/lOth acre. Polaczyk noted that design requirements had to be met including a clear zone and site distance requirements. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITV' COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 10, 1997 (#2 - Orono Lane and County Road 15 Intersection - Continued) Jabbour asked Polaczyk to explain an alternative ingress-egress the County had considered. Polaczyk said the alternative would have realigned Orono Lane placing it 200' to the east It would have required a cul-de-sac at the end of Orono Lane, rerouted Orono Lane through a wetland area, and clear cut a large area. There is a high probability of substantial additional costs, both for constuiction and necessary right-of- way acquisition. Polaczyk explained that the City and County would share the right-of- way costs at a 50/50 ratio. Construction costs are paid by Hennepin County. Polaczyk indicated the City and residents would benefit from a site distance commensurate with the current proposed design. The alternate design would require substantial tree removal in the wetland area, but there would be less impact to the hillside. The discussion was opened for public comment. Karla Spooner, 1385 Orono Lane, spoke as a representative of the Orono Lane neighborhood. She indicated their concern over the dangerous intersection. Spooner said the neighbors had only heard last month of the design approval of the road improvements. She indicated the neighbors have agreed to take a "wait and see" approach and will monitor any increased traft'ic. Spooner asked for approval of the following requests by the residents. 1) Ability to readdress the road improvement in the future 2) If a neighborhood resident agrees to donate land for a new intersection, he could; a) realize a tax benefit for his donation, b) obtain a reduction in his property tax, and c) be allowed the same hardcover benefits as he is currently allowed. Spooner presented letters from the neighbors voicing their concerns and added her notes as part of the minutes for the record. Jabbour informed Spooner that anyone can ask the Council to reopen an issue. He indicated that conditions cannot be placed to bind a future Council but the record would indicate their request. Goetten said she would welcome hearing public viewpoints and had no concerns with their request. She said she was unaware of the new ’ impacts at the curve until this meeting. Flint indicated he would be willing to readdress the issue at a later date Peterson also had no problem with readdressing the issue. She questioned the hardcover approval request. It was explained that the neighbor would like to be allowed the same amount of hardcover as he currently benefits from with the amount of property he now owns after the land donation is made. This neighbor was not present at the meeting. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 10, 1997 (#2 - Orono Lane and County Road 15 Intersection - Continued) Radio indicated a future Council cannot be bound without a current improvement proposal. Spooner asked if the requests asked by the neighbors were considered reasonable. Jabbour indicated the Council would be required to show findings for these requests to be made. Dana Wells, 1397 Orono Lane, said she had not been aware of any retaining wall. Goetten noted that her own property has been acting as a buffer for the neighborhood. Wells inquired about tree replacement. Polaczyk said the 150’ long wall would be about 2 meters high or 6-7' maximum There are some conifers amongst the trees being removed as well as underbaish. Polaczyk said the County can use a 2:1 ratio for tree replacement and would negotiate tree replacement with the property owners on private property. He noted there would also be some permanent right-of-way acquired. Wells questioned the replacement of the mirror placed along the roadway which is being used by the residents to gain access onto the County road. Polaczyk said the mirror will be replaced if necessary. This mirror was paid for and maintained by the residents Richard Noland, 1395 Orono Lane, asked if there would be an access lane heading east. Polaczyk said the 2.>0' acceleration lane is being considered for approval by the Council. It would have a transition area or tapering at the end of 63 meters or 207*. Polaczy k indicated that the purpose of the modular block retaining wall is to minimize impacts, 1 le said the County w ould agree to a natural construction line if the property owners preferred but more land would be impacted. Flint asked Spooner what time frame the neighborhood group was looking at regarding their reassessment of the improvements. Spooner said it would be after the construction is completed. Craig Moen, 1387 Orono Lane, said he was satisfied with the sensitivity shown by the County for their concerns He noted the residents would return before the Council if problems occur (Council Member Kelley arrived at this time.) Peterson asked if the alternative was more intrusive. Polaczyk said it would be. Radio asked Spooner to include a copy of her statement in the minutes for the record Spooner asked for future notification of any changes to the road or intersection i MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 10,1997 (#2 - Orono Lane and County Road 15 Intersection - Continued) Jabbour noted the large amount of traffic handled by the intersection. Spooner asked if the County road could be deemed a scenic highway. Jabbour indicated that the County road was already considered a scenic highway. Spooner requested a possible reduction in the speed limit. Council informed her they also have made such a request in the past. Moen indicated the need to preserve the beautiRil drive which allows views of the lake. Peterson moved, Flint seconded, to adopt Resolution No. 3840 directing Hennepin County to construct an acceleration lane east from the Orono Lane intersection as part of the County Road 15 improvement project. Vote. Ayes 5, Nays 0. (*#3) CONSENT AGENDA Items #8, 9, 11, and 13 were added to the Consent Agenda. Goetten moved, Kelley seconded, to approve the Consent Agenda as amended. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0.

PARK COMMISSION COMMENTS Sherokee Use informed the Council that the Park Commission, while not recommending a specific access location for Saga Hill, would request that the access not bisect the park when determining the access for the lots to the north and south of the park land. The Park Commission is interested in a trail connection between Wood Rill, the natural and scientific park land recently donated by Bruce Dayton, and Wolsfeld Woods. Use said they would recommend a walking/bike path at the proposed Spring Hill Golf Course. The Park Commission is currently making recommendations for park improvements at Antoine Park to include new play ground equipment. Use noted that the park inventory is near completion MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITV' COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 10,1997 (Park Commission - Continued) Jabbour recognized the Friends of the Park awards recently given out to Jason Christenson and Saga Hill Preservation Society. He would like the Council to give recognition to Bruce Davton for his recent land contribution. PLANNING COMMISSION CvOMMENTS Lili McMillan had no comments. PUBLIC COMMENTS Sherokee Use asked the Council to consider City involvement in the Random Acts of Kindness Week. Moorse will review the matter. Mr. Kaley, 1385 Brown Road South, asked the Council what the plans were for Maxwell Bay Access for next winter. Mayor Jabbour informed Kaley that the property is owned by the DNR. The City has a development agreement with the DNR concerning use of the access. ZONING ADMINISTRATOR’S REPORT i*#S) #2196 GENMAR INDUSTRIES, INC, h 9 SHORELINE DRIVE - VARIANCE/CUP - DENIAL RESOLUTION NO. 3841 Goetten moved. Kelley seconded, to adopt Resolution No. 3841 denying variances and conditional use permit for Gcnmar Industries, Inc. at 1449 Shoreline Drive. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#6) #2199 RICHARD W. BLOOMQUIST, RICK’S SUPER VALU, 3333 SHORELINE DRIVE - COMMERCIAL SITE PLAN REVIEW/VARIANCES - RESOLUTION NO. 3842 Van Zomeren reported the application is a request for improvements to the Rick's Super Valu property. She indicated the 30' utility easement and 100' conservation easement limits the expansion of the property to the north and east only. The improvements would include a pharmacy, expansion of a break room, increased warehouse and retail space, and a truck dock reconfiguration. Setback variances will be required to the 60' south and west side requirements. The applicant requests a 31.6% variance to the 177 required parking stalls with 121 cn-sitc stalls. A hardcover variance of 38.28% is required as the property is located within the 1000' shoreland setback. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONC Cm' COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 10, 1997 (#6 - #2199 Rick's Super Valu - Continued) Van Zomeren indicated the Planning Commission's review recommended the installation of vertical plantings. The pylon sign will be relocated with no ftirther changes. The Planning Conunission had suggested the original plan for a bank drive thru be eliminated The Commission had also discussed changes for the building facade, and the applicant had three different schemes for Council review. Goetten indicated the Council did not wish to become involved in the building's color schemes and design. Bloomquist indicated the Planning Commission's request for aesthetic impiovements Jabbour told Bloomquist that the application was a land use issue, and he was more concerned with use and access. Van Zomeren reported that the 2.85 acre property is located in the B-3 Zoning District which requires 2 acres. She noted Hennepin County had acquired a significant portion of the applicant's property for improvements to County Highways 19 and 15, which changed the parking area and setbacks. A 1991 application approved variance requests for setbacks and off-street parking for an addition to the west side of the building. Van Zomeren indicated the 1600 s f of increased hardcover is not consistent with the hardcover regulations; ;however, the Shoreland Ordinance was adopted after this use was established She also noted there is a problem with the culvert on Kelly Avenue freezing in the winter causing flooding to the street. This problem does not originate with this property. Kelley asked whether the conditions placed on the property in 1991 have been met. Van Zomeren acknowledged that the conditions including sprinklers and screening have been met. Bloomquist responded to the 1600 s.f of increased hardcover. He indicated his concern for public safety. He said he is willing to remove 1600 s.f of greeneiy to move the exit down toward the bank for the new access to the south to allow for increased visibility. He noted the property is able to handle the drainage. Jabbour said he had a problem with approving any variance without demonstrated hardships He is concerned with setting a precedent. He inquired of the applicant when the property would be considered fully developed. Bloomquist said it was his understanding that the property use would be maximized with the completion of the proposed improvements He indicated a possibility of purchasing adjacent property. Goetten said she has found Bloomquist to be a responsible citizen and was greatly affected by the loss of land due to the County's acquisition. Goetten noted with the acknowledgment of hardship, the store is good for the neighborhood. She said she appreciated the new design work but felt the decision should be left to the property owner. ( Jk t 1^ MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 10, 1997 (#6 - #2199 Rick's Super Valu - Continued) Peterson concurred with Goetten. Radio reported that the hardship test is one whereby without variance approval, the owner would not have reasonable use of the property. He indicated the property can be used as it currently stands, and it would be hard to justify the variance He suggested the code be changed. While acknowledging his request cannot be mandated. Kelley asked that language be added to the resolution indicating this improvement would be the last expansion of the property unless additional property was acquired. Kelley noted the economic need for the residential neighborhood to have the business located there. Radio asked that findings and hardship be noted as indicators for future Council, though that information would not bind the Council. Jabbour asked the applicant if he was in favor of the resolution and amendment. Bloomquist indicated his satisfaction. Jabbour moved, Goetten seconded, to approve Resolution No. 3842 with the condition noted that the impros'ements on the property are maximized unless additional property is acquired. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. (#7) SPRING HILL GOLF CLUB - APPROVE WORDING OF EAW DOCUMENT Moorse reported the Council is requested to approve the EAW wording for the Spring Hill Golf Course project. The purpose of the EAW is to review the project for possible environmental impacts If any are found, then a full EIS process would occur. If not, the project would proceed through the normal review process. It is the Council's duty as RGU to determine if the EAW document is complete and accurate in its representation of the project and its impact. The document would then be passed on to other agencies. Mabusth introduced representatives of the golf course. President Andy Hunter, Tim Johnson, Attorney Tom Crosby, and consultant. Marshal Braman. She indicated Spring Hill Golf Club is a non-profit corporation and plans on building the private golf club on the 210 acre parcel. Moorse said Stafi' has reviewed the document finding it to be generally complete but noting possible areas for discussion. Moorse said the Council still has the option to comment on the contents; and as RGU, the Council will make the final decision whether there is any environmental impact. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 10, 1997 (#7 - Spring Hill Golf Club EAVV - Continued) Kelley indicated his lack of expertise in this matter and suggested Staff contact other cities, who have gone through similar reviews, to determine pitfalls of the process. He recommended Staff and other experts determine and inform the Council whether the document is complete. Jabbour stated he had full confidence in Mike Gaffron's ability to detemiine a course of action for the Council to take He asked what Staff had reviewed. Moorse said the EAW includes a set of specific questions. Gaffron performed the background work and reviewed the document with the applicant. Moorse said Staffs recommendation for the purposes at hand is that the document is complete. Moorse said the City would like to ensure the document distributed to other agencies is accurate as it will be the document to which they will respond. Mr. Crosby commented that the approval allows the document to go to publication form. Once that has been accomplished, the legal process allows a time period until March 26 to receive comments regarding the document. Goetten infonncd the Council that she had reviewed the document and had a couple of concerns. She would like to see more information accompanying what is p. isently available regarding the "Big Woods" before it is sent out noting the lack of percentages or numbers Jabbour said this information could be included as part of the City's requirement Goetten said she would like the agencies to know the relationship the "Big Woods" played in the elimination of CoRd 6 as a corridor for the upgrade of Highway 12. Goetten said she also questioned the proposed tunneling and resulting impacts. Braman said the tunnel is a design and safety related issue and would not normally be dealt with in an environmental worksheet. He said such information would be reviewed at the City and County lev els. He did inform Goetten that the existing size of the "Big Woods" is 42 16 acres After construction of the golf club, 18.56 acres would remain for .a loss of 23.6 acres This loss is a 56% decrease. The "Big Woods" is located two-thirds in Medina and one-third in Orono and the loss amount is split proportionately between the two cities Braman said the applicant tried to be sensitive to these issues in the design process He noted alternative uses for the property, i.e, residential development, w'ould have, in his opinion, a higher impact in deforestation and to water quality. Goetten cited an example of an Orono subdivision, Sugarwoods, where the tree mass was kept largely in tact. Braman said 700-1000 trees are proposed for replanting 8 MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO C1T\' COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 10,1997 {HI - Spring Hill Golf Club EAW - Continued) Hunter informed the Council that the development would be "tree protecting". He explained that all trees would be red flagged and examined. Hunter said they would re route around trees where they can and intend to have more trees than presently there when they are completed with new or transplanted trees. Goetten asked Hunter when they planned on red-flagging the trees. Hunter said it would occur in early summer. Goetten said she is concerned with passing on a document without the "Big Woods" information. Braman said comments on the "Big Woods" could be incorporated into the material being distributed. Crosby suggested the percentage calculations be included. Jabbour said he saw the inclusion of the percentage calculations from a different viewpoint. He felt by inclusion it would imply what will be taking place on the property. He noted that the application requires a CUP on which conditions will be placed. Once those conditions have been determined, Jabbour said he then agrees with Goetten in assisting the other agencies by providing the information. Goetten indicated the draft is specific in its verbiage and is of the opinion that more information could be provided. Braman said he would add the information. Flint reinforced the comments made by Goetten. He said he favors greater exploration of the facts up front. He cited an example of the trails in the area which are not adequately discussed to his satisfaction in the EAW. He brought the Council's attention to item 26, page five of the EAW regarding the trail plan. Flint felt item 26C was incorrect He noted a trail planned for the cast side of Tamarack in Medina, the 1990 trail plan by Orono, the Hennepin County plan for a trail following CoRd 6, as well as the recent discussions by Orono’s Park Commission for a trail connection. Braman concurred that the plans for these trails were not included in the material at this time as they are not yet developed Crosby said the lack of notation of the trails does not waive the rights to the trails. The question then was whether the other agencies would know enough information for their use. Braman noted the request to meet the Febmary 24 publication date. The document is able to be published on a tw o week basis. Jabbour told Braman that Staff has informed the applicant that the Council may not be able to meet all the deadline requests of the applicant. Braman explained the process of the EAW. He noted the document is written to aid in informing and educating the agencies. He said the comments gathered by the City as the RGU will be gathered and a response made in return. Braman said the design review process is on a separate track from the EAW. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 10, 1997 (#7 - Spring Hill Golf Club EAW - Continued) Kelley asked if there is a rebuttal time in responding to physical design questions. Braman said historically they have been able to respond immediately. He said it is the Council's responsibility to review and determine if the agencies have received an adequate response. Kelley questioned at what point the process would have to start over again in reinforming the participants. Crosby said if changes were found that required republication, it would be the responsibility of the City as the RGU. Crosby said they are prepared to build the design as shown as they have already responded to neighborhood concerns. Jabbour noted the differing hats being required to be worn by the City as Council and as the RGU. He noted if the Council makes a change, the RGU can then make a change. Radio informed Jabbour that as the RGU, if the project is seen as a different project as a result of a major change, they can then step back and re-review. Goetten said she would like to see further discussions held regarding the concerns after hearing the comments that have been made and suggested a work session be held She did suggest involving the Planning Commission. Jabbour, however, said he would like to keep the discussions for the time being at the Council level. Crosby noted the Planning Commissions' concerns would be difterent than that of an EAW standpoint. Radio brought to the Council's attention the need for the Council as the RGU to start the public comment process for the EAW. On the other hand. Radio indicated the document is from the RGU as being their document. Radio said he had concerns with the conclusions found in the document. He is concerned with language used, not wanting to bind the RGU or misquote or mislead the agencies. Radio recommended the conclusions be eliminated leaving the technical information intact. Goetten commented that the concerns by Radio re-enforce the need for the work session. Jabbour said the Council needs to be satisfied with the document distributed and suggested tabling the matter. Braman noted conclusions are to be drawn as much as possible, rather than issues being left open for discussion. He drew attention to the question noted in the EAW regarding whether all questions have been answered. Kelley cited the issue of the road which he felt may be of question. Crosby informed Kelley that the road work had been completed to the satisfaction of Staff and City Engineer. Braman said while the traffic issues are documented, it was difficult to obtain information other than projections MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL MEETING HELD ON FEBRUARY 10,1997 (#7 - Spring Hill Golf Club EAVV - Continued) Kelley asked if the conclusions were drawn with the Staff Braman said they were with GafTron's comments added. Kelley said if the conclusions could be believed, it would then be left up to the Council to proceed. Goetten said Gaffron also had concerns with the "Big Woods". Flint said he also noted concern regarding the infrastructure of the roadway. Jabbour asked about the neighbors' concerns. Braman said changes were made in response to their concerns. The Work Session, which is an open meeting, was scheduled as a Special Council Meeting for Thursday, February 20, 1997 at 8:00 a m. Goetten moved, Peterson seconded, to table the approval of the EAW Document and continue the item to the Special Meeting Work Session scheduled for February 20, 1997. Vote; Ayes 5, Nays 0. MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT Jabbour reported having attended the Mayors Breakfast Meeting. Jabbour informed the Council of the recent resignation of the LMCD Director. The Council discussed the increasing power of appointed boards such as the Met Council and MCWD. Kelley indicated he met with Senator Gen Olson to discuss various issues of concern to Orono. He requested Mike Gaffron send to Senator Olson information explaining the impact of current State septic conformity regulations on Orono. He also requested that he be copied on the letter. Jabbour said he would like to see the City work more closely with the State legislators. Jabbour suggested the Council follow an operating policy of total disclosure in relation to the activities of the Council Members concerning the many issues facing the City. He noted the importance of sharing information and working in a coordinated way. The Council Members agreed to follow the policy of total disclosure. Goetten indicated the need for snowmobilers to take responsibility for safety. Goetten noted the invitation to the Big Island Veterans Camp regarding a proposed upgrade of the facilities. Jabbour said it would be a fund raiser. He reported having asked a representative of the Veterans Camp to speak with the City regarding the upgrade.

Mabusth Title Building & Zoning Administrator Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: Zoning Item Description: #2204 James Fullerton, HI - 3350/3400 Fox Street - Preliminary Subdivision/ Conceptual Approval of Conditional Use Permit for Guest House - Resolution Zoning District: LR-IA Total area = 26.72 acres (1.94 acres. Type 2 wetland within Lot 3 - not protected by City ordinances) Proposed - 3 new lots Lot 1 = 4.22 acres Lot 2 = 4.67 acres Lot 3 = 7.51 acres (5.57 acres excluding protected area) Lots 4 and 5 are existing lots of record and are included in current plat as existing lot lines are to be realigned with adjacent properties. Lot 4 = 7.16 acres Lot 5 = 3.16 acres. Application: The subdivision proposes a 5 lot plat that includes 3 new residential lots and lot line rearrangements for 2 existing lots of record. A private road with cul-de-sac is proposed. Applicant also seeks approval of a conditional use pennit for Lot 3 that would allow an existing guest/caretaker house to remain. The entire guest house structure is located within the 0-75' setback area. The following ordinances are pertinent for this review: 1. Section 10.25, Subd. 6 - Lot standards for LR-IA Zoning District. 2. Section 10.22, Subds. 1 & 2 - Existing caretaker structure located within 0-75' setback area 3. Section 10.56 - Shoreland Regulations applicable for all 5 lots. 4.Section 11.03 - Definition 66C - Definition of a Class 111 Subdivision. 5.

Fire Chief, 12/16/96 I - MCWD Permit Application J - Orono Wetlands Map K - Anderson Report - Wetland Delineation L - Staff Sketch - Road Upgrade Options M - Preliminarv Plans General Review Comment The Planning Commission reviewed the preliminary subdivision application of the 5 lot plat at their January 21, 1997 meeting. The subdivision involves the creation of 3 new residential lots and the rean angement of lot line boundaries of 2 existing lots of record. All 5 lots shall be served by on-site septics and wells. All lots easily meet the lot standards of the LR-1A zoning district. The existing pri\ate driveway that currently serves 3 residential units will be upgraded to a private road. Refer to Exhibit B, the original plat of the Stielow Addition did not designate an extension outlet to the south for a future connection to the Fullerton property. The current plat road has been designed as a cul-de-sac road at a 1,600’ length. Five lots within the subdivision and Parcel 6 as shown on Exhibit B shall be served by the upgraded roadway. Lot 4 is the only lot within the proposed 5 lot subdivision that could be further subdivided. Lots 1 and 2 have septic limitations and Lot 3 is restricted by a covenant that prohibits all construction within the south lakeshore yard. Refer to Exhibit B, Tract E’s development is restricted by covenant to 3 residential units. The covenant allows access to these p.'opcrties via the Fullerton driveway and future private road. The propo.sed road within the subdivision could serve up to 8 possibly 9 residential units. During both the sketch plan and preliminary subdivision review, the Planning Commission agreed that the existing drive with entrance m'^r.umcnts, stone retaining walls and mature plantings called for special consideration when designing or planning the upgrade of the drive to a private road. Members concurred that safety and the need to facilitate use ofemergency vehicles had to be a prime consideration in planning the upgrade of the roadway. Request for Council Action continued page 3 of 7 February 21, 1997 Zoning File #2204 ________ The Planning Commission unanimously approved the preliminary subdivision application subject to the conditions set forth on Page 5 of this memo. The following provides a more detailed review of the subdivision: Lot Standards Lots 1, 2 and 3 meet the required minimum 2 acres in area and 200' ol lot width measured in a straight line at the shoreline and at the 75' setback. Lots 4 and 5 have also maintained the required 2 acre minimum area and 200' of width with the realignment of Lots 3,4 and 5. The two accessory structures within Lot 2 and detached garage encroaching the lot lines of proposed Lots 3 and 4 will be removed prior to final subdivision approval. If applicant files final subdivision application before structures are razed, subdivider shall be asked to execute a developer's agreement and post a letter of credit to ensure their removal. The house to the immediate north (Lot 2, Klitzke Addition) will have an impact on the final placement of the residence structures on Lots 1 and 2. It may be necessary to grant average lakeshore setback variances for new residences because of the location of septic test sites, future retention pond and topography. Septic Septic testing for primar>- and alternate sites have been submitted for proposed new lots and existing lots. Existing septic systems serving Lots 3 and 4 have been found to be nonconforming not meeting the required 3' separation and are to be replaced as a condition of this subdivision approval. Septic testing has confirmed there is suitable area to support 8 bedroom capacity systems for Lots 3 and 4. The existing caretaker residence with 2 bedrooms shall be served by the primary septic system on Lot 3. The existing residence has 6 bedrooms. Lots L 2 and 5 have been designed for 5 bedroom systems consistent with the requirements of septic code. Based on the location of access drives to serve new residences, Weckman asks that the septic sites on Lots 1,2 and 5 be fenced off prior to any land alterations. Drainage/Wctlands Review Exhibits J, K and M, there are no designated wetlands within the property. The wetland delineation report confirms that a Type 2 wetland of approximately 1.94 acres exists at the shore line Request for Council Action continued page 4 of 7 February 21, 1997 Zoning File niOA of Lot 3. This is the only wetland area found within the propert>’. Applicant will be asked to execute the standard covenant to alert future propc*^y ''wner of the location and need e ^eek approval of first the Minnehaha Creek Watershed D strict tnd Corps of Engineer before presenting a plan to City for altering the Type 2 vvetla^^d. Grading/Draiiiage Applicant's grading plan proposes a retention pond within Lot 1 to maintain and treat runoff from development of I ots 1 and 2. The plan provides for a 20' easement over drainageway that leads to retention pond as requested by engineer (Exhibit G). Note drainage from culvert beneath road flows to the northwest at the north side dToadway and to the southeast to the south side through Lot 5. Drainage does not all flow to the south tli.ough Lot 5 as originally assumed in the sketch plan review. The City will as.% for a detailed grading plan with the development of Lots 2 and 5 to ensure drives will no? impact approved site drainage. 1 he City Engineer shall review the grading plan and size of culvert to be used where drive encroaches drainageways. Private Road Review Exhibit D, Planning Commission Members agreed that the existing drive and amenities should be presen ed as much as possible when applying the code standards for an upgraded private roadway at a 24' width. Exhibit G, the Engineer's report and. Exhibit II, the Long Lake Asst. Fire Chiefs review comments provide alternatives for the required upgrade. As for the entrance monuments, the City E i.,ineer recommends that the monuments be relocated to provide a 24' wide opening. In the Asst. F re Chiefs report, he recommends that the roadway for a distance of 100’ w'es*. of the entrance monuments be upgraded to a 28’ width to allow emergency vehicles to park to one side while another vc ’iicle could freely pass. Both ask that the existing turn at the west end of the retaining wall be upgraded to facilitate the turning of emergency vehicles. The current realignment is now' shown on your preliminary plan and has been approved by the City Engineer. The City Engineer has asked that the roadway in between the retaining walls for 500' be expanded to 22' with curbing. This can be a complished within the 24’ width that exists between retaining walls. Staff also recommends that the cul-de-sac be staked so that staff can determine w hat trees would need to be removed. There may be a need to adjust location c.'cul-de-sac to minimize tree removal. Both the Fire Department and the City Engineer recommend the drive be upgraded to a 24’ minimum width and a combination of curbing and ditching can be worked out in order to preser\ e as many of the existing plantings adjacent to the roadway. The Planning Commission approval specifically asks (Condition H-7, page 6} that staff work with applicant ’s engineer to determine if sections of road could be P ss than 24' in w’idth if the reduction would save mature trees and plantings. Request for Council Action continued page 5 of 7 February 21, 1997 Zoning File #2204 ___ As already noted above, there is no future extension road leading from the north to the Fullerton property. The cul-de-sac will be approved at a 1,600' length with a potential of 8 residential units to be served by the private road. Planning Commission Recommendation The Planning Commission unanimously approved the subdivision application of a 5 lot plat, Fullerton Estates, finding all standards of the LR-1A Zoning District, subdivision regulations for Class III subdivision and septic code have been satisfied.

She noted that Hennepin County said a bridge was not feasible and a tunnel would be a security risk. Doug Schmitt noted the presence of Indian Mounds in the Orono area and questioned the review by the State archaeologist. Mabusth reiterated the findings by the archaeologist of a natural sight with no burial grounds. Gaflron read the letter written by the State archaeologist. Schmitt inquired about a vUt into the land on the north side by this site that had been stopped. Gafiron said he did not know the history of that excavation, but it was quite visible when standing on the north side of the bluff. Schmitt asked if there would be any opportunity for more slips. Gaffron said the LMCD has already provided a special density permit noting a marina must provide a number of amenities. Gaffron indicated the number of slips is in direct correlation to the shoreline footage and amemties provided, and is within the jurisdiction of the LMCD. He did note that the Council may have an opinion as to whether additional slips might ever be developed at this site. Schmitt informed the Commission that he was concerned that another building such as a double wide mobile might be erected on the site. McConnell said they have no intention to add a structure or additional slips. Hawn said she was opposed to cutting into the bluff on the lakeshore. Smith agreed noting the recommendation for denial by the DNR. McMillan and Berg also voiced their opposition to cutting into the bluff Lindquist asked the applicant if a vote or tabling was preferred. The applicant asked for a vote. Lindquist moved, Smith seconded, to deny Application #2196. Vote. Ayes 5, Nays 0. At Applicant's request, it was indicated that Applications #2195 and #2196 would be presented together to the Council, probably at their first meeting in February, 1997. SKETCH PLAN/CONCEPTUAL REVIEWS (#12) #2190 JAMES G. FULLERTON, IH., 3350/3400 FOX STREET - SKETCH OF A nVE LOT SUBDIVISION The applicant, John Winston, was present. minutes of the orono planning commission meeting HELD ON NOVEMBER 18, 1996 (#12 - #2190 James G. Fullerton - Continued) Mabusth reported that the property for sketch plan review includes Lot I, the original uUerton estate Lot 2, the homestead of James Fullerton UI, which will iliclude a lot line rea.rangement. Lot 3. a developed lot once part of the estate, and Lot 4 wS was divided off but seived by Fox Street on the east side. The current proposal is for a five lot subdivision. It was noted that there will not be a back lot serving another property All of e lots meets the area and width requirements. There is a caretaker house^wWch w‘ll be aintainedL Application wiM be made for a condition use permit and wiU meet the area standards but is ocated about 45' from the lake shore. The accessory structure will be th^t^he standards. Mabusth stated louldir/owed Winston informed the Commission that Tract E has an easement to use Fox Street but does not currently use it. He also noted that the tract is not less than 2-1/2 acre lots as required by restnctive covenants. Mabusth asked if the covenant restricts the number of a^M i- is only 10 the size. Mabusth said this would allow anadditional uml to be served by Tract F for a total of possibly seven. Mabusth i^ormed the Commission that the entrance to the area is 25' width and surrounded by retaining walls. She noted that it would be difficult to upgrade the remain a Winston said it was his desire to retain the gate and amenities along the entry Lindquist agreed that it was a beautifiil entrance. Mabusth said the plan calls for an imovative approach to an upgrade, and if the Commission supports it, it would be difficult to Sffi;^^arng ti^st^ut"" Winston reported that the division would result in lots of at least 4 acres in size. He noted wo w' I’® accessed directly from the street and several lots w ould not utilize the entire length of the access. Only three lots would use the full extent of the dnveway to include the Fullerton homestead. Tract E and Lot I almost immediately exist ofF of the priv'ate driv'eway. Lindquist indicated that the private road would be maintained by the property owners. V MINUTES OF THE ORONO PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING HELD ON NOVEMBER 18, 1996 h (#12 - #2190 James G. Fullerton - Continued) McMillan inquired about the no build area. Winston said the no build area is to protect the main views from the Fullerton residence and would be protected by restrictive covenant for 30 years. Winston noted that it did not appear to hinder a potential buyer. The no build area could become a buildable site in the distant future as there is adequate area. Mabi’.':h asked what the no build restriction included. Winston said no above grade building would be allowed, such as a pool house or tennis house, but a swimming pool was feasible. Mabusth informed Winston that building in that area may require an average lakeshore setback variance to include a swimming pool or any additions to the existing house. It was indicated that the caretaker residence is hooked up to septic. It appears that access to the caretaker residence is from a gravel access. Mabusth reported that the application would again appear before the Planning Commission in January, 1997.

Winston: The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is in receipt of your project notification for a proposed five-lot subdivision located in SE'/4, Sections 5, T117N, R23W. Based on our review of the notification form and maps of the area, we have determined that there are no activities proposed that are under DNR protected waters permit jurisdiction and therefore the project dfifis not require a DNR permit. If future alterations of the Lake Minnetonka shoreline are proposed, a DNR permit may be required and this office should be consulted. While the DNR is ^ven an opportunity by the city to conunent on land use proposals (such as a subdivision) within the “Shoreland District,” we do not have direct jurisdiction on approval of subdivisions. As long as the proposed subdivision meets the city ’s zoning code (for minimum lot sizes, building envelopes that meet all setbacks, etc.), as appears to be the case here, we are unlikely to submit written comments to the city. Thank you for your cooperation. If you have any questions, please contact me at 772-7914. Sincerely, Ceil Strauss Area Hydrologist c:James G.

Mabusth, Planning and Zoning Administrator FROM:Stephen Weckman, On-Site Systems Manager DATE:January 10, 1997 SUBJECT: Septic Review for Application #2204, Fullerton Estates - Subdivision The proposed five lot subdivision includes four existing septic systems. All of the existing septic systems are non-compliant (failing) due to the lack of three foot separation between the drainfield and the seasonal water table. Although none are an eminent health hazard currently, each of them must be replaced at this time or be properly abandoned. For this reason each of the new lots has both primary and alternate drainfield sites located on them. The existing septic systems serve 3350 Fox St., 3400 Fox St., the caretaker residence, and the garage facility. All proposed septic systems meet City and State standards. The drainfield sites are designed for five bedroom residences on lots 1, 2, and 5, while lots 3 and 4 have eight bedroom designs to accommodate the large existing main residences and a caretaker residence. The drainfield sites on lots 1,2 , and 5 must all be fenced off prior to any grading or land alteration due to their proximity to the access road. Also, the driveway for each of these lots will pass 20 feet from many of the drainfield sites, so the sites must be accurately fenced to protect them from damage. Based on the above information, staff recomends approval of the application. The applicant should note that the 20 foot setback between the drainfield areas and the driveway must be maintained. i 1/ J Bonestroo Rosene Anderlik& I Associates Engineers & Architects November 12, 1996 Ms. Jeanne A.

W'Hm *r and St Cloud MN • Mequon Wl 40th ^7" 8 •I'Pi !* Dear Jeanne, We have reviewed the proposal to subdivide the Fullerton property at 3350 Fox Street. The property is located west of Leaf Street on the north shore of Maxwell Bay in Section 5. The property access is presently provided by a 1,650 foot long paved private cul-de-sac that serves three existing residences. The subdivision will add four additional lots to the private street. The existing pavement varies in width from 18 to 20 feet. The Subdivision Code requires a 24 foot minimum paved width for private streets serving up to seven units. The pavement section is 8 inches of class 5 100% crushed aggregate and 3 inches of pavement. The maximum cul-de-sac length is 1.000 feet. We offer the following comments in regards to engineering issues. It appears feasible to widen the roadway to 24 feet in most areas west of the first 500 feet by shifting the centerline north or south to avoid trees. The roadway could be either rural (with ditches), or urban (with 4" bituminous curbs), or a combination of the two. The first 500 feet of the street west of Leaf Street has stone retaining walls along both sides, 24 feet apart. In this area it would be best to widen the road to 22 feet with bituminous curbing to avoid the walls. At the intersection with Leaf Street there are two stone monuments w'ith an 18 foot wide iron gate between them. One or both of the monuments should be moved to allow a 24 foot wide roadway. The new cul-de-sac location should be staked in the field to determine if !re<*< will need to be removed fct t!:c- ^onit.noiioii. Drainage and utility easements should be platted 5 feet wide along the lot lines and iO feet wide along the right-of-way. A 20 foot wide drainage easement should be shown across Lots 3 and 1, leading northwesterly from the existing culvert to Stubbs Bay. Please contact me at this office if you have any questions regarding this matter. Yours very truly, BONESTROO. ROSENE, ANDERLIK & ASSOCIATES. INC. Shawn D. Gustafson, P.E. 2335 West Highway 36 ■ St. Paul, MN 55113-3898 ■ 612-636-4600 Long Lake Volunteer Fire Dept. 1964 Park Avenue Long Lake, Minnestota 55356 Office: 612-473-9701 • Fax: 476-9622 December 16,1996 TO; FROM: Jeanne A. Mabusth Building & Zoning Administrator Jim Cox 17 1996 SUBJECT: Fullerton Property Located at 3400 Fox Street The 1814 foot opening between entrance monuments to the Fullerton property is adequate to serve fire emergency vehicles. The straight alignment of the drive commencing at Fox Street intersection and for several feet beyond entrance gates will enhance the use of fire vehicles. The width of the drive is approximately 20-21 feet and is inadequate for the first 100 feet into the property. There is a need to maintain a minimum of 28 feet up to approximately the beginning of the retaining wall along the north and south side of the road. This will allow for the use of emergency vehicles entering or leaving the property via the 1814 foot wide corridor restricted by stone entrance monuments. We would ask that the private road be upgraded to a minimum of a 24 foot width. Special care should be given at the sharp curve at the end of the corridor restricted by the retaining walls so as to allow for an adequate turning radius for emergency vehicles. It may be of help and assistance to the City if I am present at a staff inspection of the roadway in determining specific upgrades of the private drive.

The existing structure is a single family home with one bedroom and one bathroom. The applicants are requesting variances for hardcover, lakeshore setback and average lakeshore setback in order to construct a great room above the existing garage. (See Exhibit F) The proposed design for the new great room would not increase hardcover nor further encroach into the lakeshore setback or average lakeshore setback. The addition above the garage will add 340 sq. ft. of living space. Statement of Hardship The applicants have indicated that they desire more space than the current one bedroom, one bathroom configuration. Possible improvements to the structure are limited by the following considerations: 1. Most (72.11 %) of the subject property is located on the lakeside of the 75' shoreline setback. 2.The rear of the structure is only 7.6' off of the easement for the Dakota rail line which prohibits additions to the rear of the structure. 3.The southwest comer of the house is on the west property line. Additions to the west could not meet side and rear yard requirements. 4.The house to the east is very close to the east property line. Additions to the east could not meet side and rear yard setback requirements. 5.A substantial portion of the lot is blacktopped for Cr>'stal Bay Road and the driveway. 6.The applicant cannot build over the Hillside Place easement on the west of the property. 7.The minimum lot size for the LR-IC district is 1/2 acre (21,780 sq. ft.). The subject property is 6,500 sq. ft. or 29% of the minimum lot size. Issues for Consideration 1. Staff has visited the site and notes that the exterior of the house is in need of repair. #2207, Jonathan & Theresa Hofer 3339 Cr> stal Bay Road-Variances Page 3 ^ Fcbruar>' 10. 1997 - 2.The applicants are not proposing any increase in hardcover, lakeshore setback or average lakeshore setback. 3. 4. 5. The second floor addition above the existing garage will not impact views of the lake for either of the adjacent property owners. The applicant is unable to add any living space to tne east, west, or south side of the structure because of the 75' shoreline setback requirement, side and rear yard requirements, the proximity of the adjacent house to the east and the internal floor plan of the building. The proposal to add living space above the existing garage is the only known option at this time available to the applicants to increase space without increasing hardcover.

My husband’s name is Jonathan Hofer anciVe are waiting for the arrival of our new baby in March. Jon and I have been looking for the perfect house for almost a year. During that time we have looked at more than 125 houses. Finally we found the perfect one located at 3339 Crystal Bay Road. Although it’s currently run-down, we felt that with some tender loving care, this home would be the perfect place for our new family. The improvements that we have planned are designed to improve the appearance and livability of the house while maintaining the same atmosphere and feel of the area. For this house to function even for a small family, we feel that it needs to have at least three bedrooms and one bathroom. Existing, it has one bedroom and one bathroom. We’ve toiled over many options to gain more space. Going up one level, adding on to the back or adding on to the side. Going up would create an eyesore and create a structure too tall. Going out any direction would create more hard cover and encroach on the set backs. Also, the lot contains five very old and very large oak trees. To lose even one of these beautiful trees would be a loss for everyone. After much thought, what we are proposing is to add 340 square feet above the existing attached garage. This space would be the living room. The current living room could then be divided into two small bedrooms. All the rest of the work would be for moving internal walls, new siding, cabinets, carpeting, etc. This entire project requires no additional excavation or block work that would increase the foundation size of this house. Tlie issue of hard cover has been raised. The only addition we would request would be for a small deck on the right (west) side of the house. No more hard cover would be needed for the house. Because of the way surveying was done in 1910, these lots are very small and many homes were built right on the property line. The house to our east is on our property line. The easement given to the city to run a paved street across all the properties has taken away a large portion of what 44°r\'S>.'V V .— % M' ■ * JT • • . w * • 11 Otherwise would have been “soft cover.” Currently, we care for the 25 feel to the west, and also about 40 feel to the south. Both work as part of our lawn but are actually owned by the city and the railroad. Even though not actually owned, both sides are a working part of our land and create drainage. The improvements that we propose are in line with what other neighbors have already done. We would not be blocking any views, and would be no closer to the lake than others. Currently there are other neighbors who have living space above garages and decks. We love the area and are excited to live in Orono. We would like to raise our family here in Orono, but as any other family would, we need more than 900 square feet and one bedroom. We are afraid of being pushed out of a home that we haven ’t even yet moved into. We are currently in temporary housing while we wait for the variance and are terribly anxious to get going. We would greatly appreciate your flexibility and help with these issues. We have put much thought into this house and feel that it would enhance the neighborhood, renovate an old home which is currently run down and would stay inside its current foundation. We thank you all for your consideration. r *• 0 V January 23, 1997 To the City Council of Orono: This letter is to request that the proposed variance be put on the agenda for the city council meeting scheduled for February 24th, 1997. We request this for several reasons. 1) We are currently in temporary housing, 2) are expecting our first child in March, 3) are currently paying for two residences every month. We greatly appreciate your help in this matter and will do everything possible to be well organized and available to you all. Thank you.

The proposed improvements will serve the new Oftrno let* ArtMiu as shown on Figure 1 This report describes the sanitary sewer and water main improvements required to completely serve the ice arena The proposed san.iuiy sewer and water main improvements are «hown on Ingures 2 and 3. The costs of the proposed improvements are presented in the appendices of this report and a cost summary is presented in the Cost Analysis section. II. Summary and Recommendations The construction of sanitary sewer and water main to serve the Orono Re Artuia is feasible fr<tm an engineering standpoint. The project is necessary because utilities do not currently exist to serve the site. The capital cost as well as operation and maimcnance firsts have been considered in determining that the project is cost effective. The cost of the improvements should be as.signed to the benefiting property. Orono Icc Arena. The Orono Ice Arcuia board intends to waive their right to u public hearing. The following iccommendaii«)iiN aic p«evented for consideration by the Orono City Council: 1) That this report be adopted as a guide for installation oj saniiaiy sewer and water main to serve the Orono Ice Arena. 2) That the City order plans and specifications lor the project Sanitan' Sewer and VVr//er M<iin Imfnovcim nis 3 1 ^i.

Sanitary Sewer The proposed sanilaiy sewer for ihe Orono ke Arena is shown on Figure 2. Based on a review of the project site, the route shown on the figure is recommended from a construction standpt'inl. The Oroiio Ice Arena would he served by a grinder pump station located adjacent to Olil Crystal Bay Road. A two-inch PVC forceinuin would be jacked under Old Crystal Bay Road and discharge into an c.xisling forcemain located on the ca.st side of the roadway. The existing gravity sanitary sewer line is located approximately 1,200 feet south <»f the Ice Arena site. An option to extend thi.s line to the north is not feasible due to considerable additional cost. The project will generally he constructed within the right-ol-W'ay. The alignment show'n on I'igure 2 may require stime permanent and construction easements from the ( ^nmo Ice Arena.

Water Main Tlic proposed water niaitt for the Orono Ice Arena is shown on Figure 3. A review of (he project site indicates the route shown on the figure is recommended from u construction standpoint. The existing eight-inch water main is located approximately 6(K) feet south of the Orono Icc Arena site on Old Crystal Bay Road. The existing eight-inch line would be extended 20 feet to the north; and frojii that point t(» .‘>7.3 feet north, 12-inch water main would he installed.

Gappa Title Director of Public Services Administrator Reviewed: 7 Agenda Section: Engineer's Report Item Description: Change Order No. 2 Lift Station No. 28 Renovation This contract is for the renovation of Lift Station No. 28. The installation of a Sensa Phone Express Dialer System in the lift station was included as part of the project. This dialer system will place a call to the pager of the on call public works employee in the event of a lift station malfunction. This will provide for immediate notification cf public works personnel for a quicker response time, thus reducing the potential for property damage. This change order will provide for a Sensa Phone Express Dialer .System for installation in Lift Station No. 6 which is located along Casco Point Road. The amount of this change order is $3,856.47. The Contractor and Boonestro Engineers were provided verbal authorization for this change order by the previous Public Works Director, so the contractor has already purchased the equipment. However, the equipment has not been installed yet. My understanding is that the contractor. Ford Construction of Long Lake, has completed excellent work for the City on .several projects, so it was decided to have him install this additional equipment through the change order process for the existing lift station rehabilitation contract. Lift Station No. 6 is a critical lift station with a limited time for response oefore basement flooding occurs. There have been past incidents of flooded basements from lift station malfunctions. Lift Station No. 6 is one the oldest lift stations in the City and is difficult to repair because of the station design. Rehabilitation of this lift station has been approved for this summer to provide for a more dependable station that will be easier to service and repair. The tributary area to this lift station also experiences infiltration and inflow problems which increase the flow into the system further reducing the amount of time available before property damage occurs in the event of a lift station malfunction. We are concerned that the heavy snow this winter could compound the I & I problem for this lift station in the spring. The immediate installation of a temporary dialer system in the Lift Station No. 6 will provide an added level of protection for this station this spring and summer until after renovation is completed The renovated lift station will include a dialer system installed within the new control system which will provide permanent protection for the this facility. The temporary dialer system can than be moved to either Lift Station No. 7 or 8 and installed to provide permanent protection for one of these stations.

Whitetailed deer have been observed on the Site. Wetland mitigation will increase the area of wetlands and new upland buffers present on the Site prior to construction by nearly 2 acres. These wetlands will provide suitable habitat for a number of wildlife species. A total of 50.88 acres of forest habitat and 25.51 acres of brush/grassland will be converted to golf course on the Site. Minimal impacts are anticipated to wildlife. Additional fragmentation of the forested areas will occur which will create more open areas and forest fringe. No physical barriers (fences) to wildlife are proposed on the interior or exterior perimeter of the property, with the exception of some potential security fencing at the maintenance facility. Animals will continue to travel along wooded and open areas throughout the property. b Are there any state-listed endangered, threatened, or special-concern species; rare plant communities; colonial waterbird nesting colonies: native prairie or other rare habitat; or other sensitive ecological resources on or near the site? X Yes . No If yes, describe the resource and how it would be affected by the project. Indicate if a site survey of the resources was conducted. Describe measures to be taken to minimize or avoid adverse impacts. The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Natural Hehtage Program was contacted and requested to review their records for any threatened, endangered and special concern species on the Site. The DNR, in response, indicated that the EAW address the issue of Big Woods (see appendix B). The proposed project will impact a 43 acre remnant of Big Woods. The portion of the project north of County Road 6 in Orono and Medina includes 43 acres of Big Woods forest. This is a free standing remnant, in that it is not contiguous to any larger Big Woods areas. However, it is in proximity to two larger areas of Big Woods forest. The Wolsfeld Woods Scientific and Natural Area is located 3/8 mile west of the Big Woods remnant, and the Wood Rill Scientific and Natural Area is located 3/4 mile southwest of the Big Woods remnant (please see the map in Appendix Showing the relative locations of the three Big Woods areas). The project would eliminate 49.7% of the Big Woods remnant. Also, the remainder of this remnant will not be a contiguous Big Woods area but rather several small individual areas. By changing the 43.11 acre contiguous Big Woods area to several small areas of Big Woods totaling 21.C9 acres; the project changes the type of woods community, including related plants and wildlife habitat, from a Big Woods remnant community to a forest fringe type of community. The DNR County Biological Suivey of Hennepin County rated the quality of this remnant Big Woods as BC (medium quality) on a scale from A to D. Wolsfeld Woods SNA is rated (AB) High, and Wood- rill SNA is rated (B) Medium High. The big woods on the Site are located primarily in the Medina portion of the Site. The maple-oak-basswood big woods forest is rated as a medium quality remnant (BC on a scale of A-D see appendix B). Wherever feasible, impacts will be minimized. The golf course design avoids big woods impacts to the degree practical. Maps indicating the current and proposed locations of big woods are located in appendix B. Further general discussion of Big Woods is provided in a brochure published by the DNR located in appendix B. An area of big woods is being used as upland buffer for wetland mitigation purposes. This will afford a high degree of protection to that area. 12. Physical impacts on Water Resources Will the project involve the physical or hydrologic alteration (dredging filling, stream diversion, outfall structure, diking, impoundment) of any surface water (lake, pond, wetland, stream, drainage ditch)? JL. Yes _ No If yes, identify the water resource to be affected and describe: the alteration, including the construction process; volumes of dredged or fill material: area affected: length of stream diversion; water surface area affected; timing and extent of fluctuations in water surface elevations; spoils disposal sites; and proposed mitigation measures to minimize impacts. Wetlands occupy over 12 percent of the land area on the Site, totaling 23.60 acres of wetlands. A total of 1.41 acres of wetlands are proposed to be filled. In-kind wetland mitigation will take place on the Site at a 2:1 replacement ratio. Upon project completion approximately 24.6 acres of wetland, including mitigation areas, will be present on the Site. Locations of fill areas are indicated on the map in appendix A. Wetlands to be filled include 1.27 acres of type 2, PEMB, 0.1 acres of Type 3. PEMC and 0.04 acres of a intermittent riverine channel. The project will set aside upland buffer areas which will include native Big Woods. The Big Woods will be over 50% of the above the 1:1 wetland mitigation replacement. All wetland activities will be in compliance with Minnesota 1 996 Wetland Conservation Act and Corps of Engineers section 404 Clean Water Act requirements. A copy of the Wetland Delineation, Classification and Identification report is in appendix C.

Water Use a Will the project involve the installation or abandonment of any wells? X Yes _ No For abandoned wells give the location and Unique well number. For new wells, or other previously unpermitted wells, give the location and purpose of the well and the Unique well number (if known). The current well supplying the conference center was installed in 1984. It is 178 feet in depth is 10 inch diameter and is registered as a commercial well. The unique well number is 161437/27. This well will remain in use to supply future clubhouse needs. In addition, the 10 inch well will be used to supply water to the irrigation pond. When the well was installed the well was tested at a 750 gallon pumping rate per minute for 24 hours. Drawdown after 24 hours of pumping was 10 feet. An additional well will be installed to sen/ice the maintenance facility and rest station. Exact locations of some existing wells are not known at this time. It is anticipated that up to three welts on the Site will require abandonment. Any unused wells located on the Site will be abandoned according to State Department of Health regulations. b. Will the project require an appropriation of ground or surface water (including dewatering)? XYes _No If yes, indicate the source, quantity, duration, purpose of the appropriation, and DNR water appropriation permit number of any existing appropriation. Discuss the impact of the appropriation on ground water levels. Although there is the potential for short term dewatering during construction, no dewatering is anticipated at this time. If dewatering becomes necessary, the appropriate permits will be secured. Irrigation water will be pumped to the surface and discharged to an irrigation pond located along Spring Hill Road. Current estimates for normal pumping volumes are 140 to 160 acre feet per year. First year pumping volumes are estimated at 200 acre feet to assist in establishment of new turf. A new appropriation permit will be required because of changed use of the existing well. c. Will the project require connection to a public water supply? _ Yes JL. No. If yes, identify the supply, the DNR water appropriation permit number of the supply, and the quantity to be used. 14.Water-related Land use Management Districts Does any part of the project site involve a shoreland zoning district, a delineated 100-year plain, or a state or federally designated wild or scenic river land use district? >L ‘ es _ No If yes, identify the district and discuss the compatibility of the project with the land use restrictions of the district. The City of Orono has designated a Shoreland Protection Area around Long Lake. The project will meet the requirements of the City of Orono and DNR shoreland protection area regulations. As part of the shoreland protection plan, a buffer area has been established around Long Lake to avoid shoreland impacts. Stormwater management will be in compliance with regulations applicable to the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and the Cities of Orono and Medina. Review of Federal Emergency Management Agency FIRM maps indicates that no floodplain or floodway areas exist on the golf course Site. 15.Water Surface Use Will the project change the number or type of watercraft on any water body? _ Yes JL No If yes, indicate the current and projected watercraft usage and discuss any potential overcrowding or conflicts with other users or fish and wildlife resources. 16.Soils Approximate depth (in feet) to: Ground water: minimum Oft, average 10+ ft. Bedrock: minimum 150 average Describe the soils on this site, giving SCS classifications, if known. (SCS interpretations and soil boring logs need not be attached.)

Erosion and Sedimentation Give the acreage to be graded or excavated and the cubic yards of soil to be moved; acres approximately 80 : cubic yards 339.750 . Describe any steep slopes or highly erodible soils and identify them on the site map. Describe the erosion and sedimentation measures to be used during and after construction of the project. Steep slopes are present around the Conference Center. Best Management Practices as prescribed by the Metropolitan Council will be utilized to minimize potential erosion during construction. Upon completion of each construction phase, all soil surfaces will be reveaetated. All soils excavated on the Site will remain on the Site. 18. Water Quality - Surface Water Runoff a. Compare the quantity and quality of site runoff before and after the project. Describe methods to be used to manage and/or treat runoff. The project Site contributes drainage to Long Lake. This water eventually makes its way to Lake Minnetonka. The Site is located in the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District. Three minor watershed areas drain through the Site and outlet into Long Lake. The watershed boundaries extend north of the project area and include approximately 208 acres of off-site drainage area. The runoff flows through the Site from the north to the south and outlets into Long Lake through culverts under Spring Hill Road. Considerable efforts have been made by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District to improve the water quality of Long Lake, with over $2.2 million spent in an effort in recent years. During the design of the course, special attention has been, and will continue to be, given to improving runoff quality from the present condition. The nutrient budget analysis indicates significantly reduced levels from the existing condition (see Table 2). The stormwater treatment ponds are intended to be constructed to treat the runoff from the golf course. The runoff through the wetland complexes to Long Lake is routed through wet detention ponds prior to discharge to Long Lake. The irrigation pond in the center drainage will collect runoff for reuse as irrigation, thereby further reducing potential nutrient loading and reducing irrigation needs. Since there is little impervious area and the flow must pass across well vegetated grassy areas, it is anticipated that the golf course will not be a significant loading source. Water quality and quantity control will be provided by three NURP basins designed for both on-site and off-site drainage areas. The NURP basins are located along Spring Hill Road on the upstream end of the existing culverts. Outlet structures are placed at the existing culverts to control the flow rates. The ponds are sized to meet Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and City requirements for NURP basin design. The drainage ivas analyzed using stormwater modeling software based on Soil Conservation Service methodologies. The modeling was set up to route 100-year, 10- year and 1-year design storms through the existing wetlands, mitigation wetlands, NURP basins and road culverts. The proposed construction of the fairways, greens and tees will increase the volume of runoff by 120% to 175% over the existing conditions. By using the detention storage available in the wetlands, mitigation areas and NURP basins, the additional volume is controlled and the proposed runoff rates leaving the Site are reduced to below the existing rates. The existing and proposed runoff rates at the three major culvert crossings on Spring Hill Road are presented in Table 1. TABLE 1 RUNOFF RATES TO LONG LAKE : SPRING HILL RD CULVERT EXISTING CONDITIONS PROPOSED CONDITIONS 100 Yr.10 Yr.1 Yr.100 Yr. 10 Yr.1 Yr. 15" CMP (NURP Basin 1)23cfs 9 cfs 0 cfs 4 cfs 2 cfs 0.2 cfs 36" RCP (NURP Basin 2)23cfs 11 cfs 1 4 cfs ■>6.5 cfs 11.5 cfs 0.4 cfs r 42 ” RCP (NURP Basin 3)57 cfs 28 cfs 3 cfs 29 cfs 6.5 cfs 0.9 cfs The roadway culvert crossings on County Road 6 and Spring Hill Road were also included in the storm water flow rate modeling. Based on the results of the flow rating, these culverts are capable of handling up to 100-year design storms without overtopping the roads. The proposed golf course construction did not increase the flow rates to these culverts. A nutrient budget was performed to evaluate the impact of the pollutant loadings to Long Lake from the construction of the golf course. The procedures used in the analysis are from the MPCA's “Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas, ” Best Management Practices Manual. The pollutant concentrations used in determining the loadings for both undeveloped and developed conditions were those representing open/non-urban land use. Although there will be a change in the land use. A 1995 study by Mr. John Barten, of Suburban Hennepin County Park District, on the quantity and quality of golf course runoff found that the nutrient export from golf courses is very similar to undeveloped land.' A copy of the entire report is located in appendix H. The removal efficiencies of the proposed NURP basins are based on “Walkeris ” long term NURP basin pond performance criteria. The results of nutrient budget analyses indicate an ( 'erall reduction in the pollutant loadings to Long Lake. The nutrient budget data is tabulated bb.ow.

Quantity and Quality of Runoff from Four Golf Courses in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area . September 1995, Suburban Hennepin Regional Park District. 11 A further reduction in the future pollutant loadings can be expected when the ditch system draining the existing wetlands is removed and new weir structures are installed at the wetland outlets. The new weir structures will impound the runoff (up to a two-foot depth) and allow the water to infiltrate into the ground rather than drain eventually into Long Lake. The impounding of the runoff will not only reduce the pollutant loadings, but will also help partially restore the wetlands to their pre-drained condition. It is anticipated that the average water depth in the wetlands will increase by one foot. The removal efficiency of the largest NURP basin (NURP Basin 2) will also be enhanced when the basin becomes part of the irrigation system. Water will be pumped from this basin to irrigate the fairways, tees and greens. Well water will be used to stabilize the water level in the basin. In addition to the treatment of the stormwatei runoff by NURP basins, source control and best management practices will be implemented. These measures are listed below: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Grading of the golf course to minimize disturbance to the natural areas and to maximize the recapture and recycling of the runoff and nutrients. Direct the runoff across natural areas and onto grass swales to the mitigated and existing wetlands. The Golf Club is investigating membership in the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program which will require environmentally sensitive measures used in the management of the golf course. Integrated Pest Management (IPM) practices will be employed for the management of the golf course. IPM procedures recommend application events and rates will be dictated by turf management needs as opposed to conventional seasonal or calendar scheduling. Grassed swales will be used as a Best Management Practice (BMP) to guide runoff to constructed wetlands within the golf course. 19. Water Quality - Wastewaters a. Describe sources, quantities, and composition (except for normal domestic sewage) of all sanitary and industrial wastewaters produced or treated at the site. Normal domestic wastewaters, are the only anticipated wastewaters to be generated at the Site. All discharges from the clubhouse will be to the existing septic system. Wastewater treatment is and will be performed by the existing septic system. Volumes are expected to be approximately 3500 gallons per day. Wastewater from the maintenance facility will be discharged to a septic system which will be constructed concurrently with the maintenance facility. Wastewater from the rest station will be discharged to a septic system which will be constructed concurrently with the rest station. b. Describe any waste treatment methods to be used and give estimates of composition after treatment, or if the project involves on-site sewage systems, discuss the suitability ot the site conditions for such systems. Identify receiving waters (including ground water) and estimate the impact of the discharge on the quality of the receiving waters. (If the discharge may affect a lake, consult "EAW Guidelines" about whether a nutrient budget analysis is needed.) Wastewater from the project will be discharged to the existing septic system. The current system was designed for more than double the proposed use levels. c. If wastes will be discharged into a sewer system or pretreatment system, Identify the system and discuss the ability of the system to accept the volume and composition of the wastes. Identify any improvements which will be necessary. 20. Ground Water - Potential for Contamination a. Approximate depth (in feet) to ground water: 0 minimum: 90 ft. maximum the average depth is approximately 25 to 40 feet.. b. Describe any of the following site hazards to ground water and also identify them on the site map: sinkholes; shallow limestone formations/karst conditions; soils with high infiltration rates; abandoned or unused wells. Describe measures to avoid or minimize environmental problems due to any of these hazards. There are no known hazards to groundwater on the Site. All unused wells known to be present on the Site or discovered during construction will be abandoned in strict accordance with Minnesota Department of Health regulations during the construction of the project. Only one unique well number is known. c. Identify any toxic or hazardous materials to be used or present on the project site and identify measures to be used to prevent them from contaminating ground water. Currently only small amounts of fertilizes and pesticides are used on the Site. In the future the total volume of use of these chemicals will increase because of increased uce of the land. Application of both fertilizers and pesticides will be by licensed, certified applicators following approved management practices for golf courses. 21. Solid Wastes; Hazardous Wastes; Storage Tanks a. Describe the types, amounts, and compositions of solid or hazardous wastes to be generated, including animal manures, sludges and ashes. Identify the method and location of disposal. For projects generating municipal solid waste indicate if there will be a source separation plan; list type(s) and how the project will be modified to allow recycling. During construction several of the existing buildings will be razed. Demolition debris will be properly disposed of at an MPCA approved demolition debris landfill. Long term, the only anticipated wastes to be generated by this project are municipal solid wastes. Municipal solid wastes are collected by private haulers on a contract basis and the majority are ultimately burned and converted to electricity at the Hennepin County Waste to Energy facilities in Minneapolis. Ash and other non-saleable residues are then shipped to contract ash landfills. The City of Orono provides a weekly cuibside recycling program for paper, glass and plastics. No hazardous wastes are generated on the Site and none will be generated during the future use. A spill of petroleum products was reported on the property on November 21. 1990. According to the MPCA project manager, Mr. Hannon, the amount was small because there was no additional information in the MPCA file about the size of the release or if additional work was requested. b. Indicate the number, location, size and use of any above or below ground tanks to be used for storage of petroleum products or other materials (except water). The maintenance facility will have a properly designed and constructed refueling area for golf course equipment. The fuel storage tanks will be above ground, concrete-encased tanks. 22. Traffic Parking spaces added not known at this time Existing spaces (if project involves expansion) 180 Estimated total Average Daily Traffic (ADT) generated all figures include future projections for the development of aolf course land uses. The Soring Hill Golf Course is projected to generate approximately 250 trios oerdav and 50 trios during the o m. peak hour during the aolfina season. Estimated maximum peak hour traffic generated (if known) and its timing: 50 . 4:30 - 5:30 om . For each affected road indicate ADT and the directional distribution of traffic with and without the project. Provide an estimate of the impact on traffic congestion on the affected roads and describe any traffic improvements which will be necessary. The proposed project is expected to have very minor traffic impacts to the surrounding roadway system in terms of the need for capacity upgrades. However, the additional traffic generated by the development may result in the need for repair or structural rehabilitation of existing local roadways, or the need for safety-related improvements such as left turn lanes or left turn bypass lanes. The traffic impacts were assessed by determining the project trip generation, distribution, and assigning project traffic to the surrounding roadway system. Traffic generation projections are based on golf club membership and anticipated staffing levels. It is important to note that traffic will not be generated for approximately 6 months per year because the golf course will be closed. The existing roadway system and each step of the traffic analysis is described and discussed below. Existing Roadway System The existing roadways in the vicinity of the project are described below. Spring Hill Road Spring Hill Road is currently a two lane rural paved street with no turn lanes. It loops from County Road 6 through a small neighborhood with a 30 mph speed limit and returns to County Road 6. Spring Hill Road is part of the City of Orono's street system. Hennepin County Road 6 County Road 6 is a 50 mph two lane roadway with right turn lanes. The western terminus of County Road 6 is located 3.5 miles west at TH 12. It continues east through Plymouth. East Long Lake Road has an interchange with TH12 and combined with Spring Hill Road provides a cutoff between County Road 6 and TH 12. Tamarack Drive Tamarack Drive is currently a two lane rural paved street with no turn lanes. It connects County Road 6 and County Road 24. Hunter Drive Hunter Drive is currently a two lane rural paved street with no turn lanes connects County Road 6 and County Road 24. Trip Generation The trip generation of the proposed project was used in conjunction with trip generation rates from local data provided by the City of Orono from the MN/DOT T.H. 12 Corridor Proposal Report (October 4, 1996). Trip Generation Spring Hill Golf Club Land Use Size. Units Daily Volume PM In Volume PM Out Volume Golf Course 18.0 Holes 250 The development currently pending City of Orono approval involves private golf course land uses. These portions of the developments generate approximately 250 trips per day and 50 trips during the p.m. peak hour. Trip Distribution Trip distribution to and from the Golf Course is shown in appendix D. Traffic Assignment Project traffic was assigned to the surrounding roadways. The estimated average daily trips and p.m. peak hour trips added to the roadway system by the various components of the development are shown in appendix D. Background Traffic Volumes Existing average daily traffic (ADT) volume on the surrounding roadways and the projected background growth expected is not available from the Cities. Higher than average annual growth rates are expected in area traffic volumes as a result of additional development anticipated in the areas surrounding the project. Since no formal applications for development in the areas surrounding the project have been made with the City of Orono at this time, no specific cumulative impacts of other approved projects are included in this analysis. Recommended Roadway Improvements The project traffic warrants no capacity improvements to County Road 6, Spring Hill Road or East Long Lake Road. Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities The creation of new residential subdivisions in the area will increase the demand for sidewalks and bicycle trails along the surrounding arterials such as County Road 6, Spring Hill Road and East Long Lake Road. Conclusion The proposed Spring Hill Golf Club development is not expected to have significant traffic impacts in terms of the need for capacity upgrades. However, the additional traffic generated by the development may result in the need for repair or structural rehabilitation of existing local roadways, or the need for safety related improvements, such as left turn lanes or left turn bypass lanes. Based on the current plans, the current rear driveway will be replaced with a new driveway connection to Spring Hill Road. A new driveway to the maintenance facility will be required on Tamarack. The remaining roadways currently have excess capacity to accommodate the projected volumes of traffic adequately. With the exception of several permanent employees, traffic will not be generated for approximately 6 months per year because the golf course will be closed. 23. Vehicle-related air emissions Provide an estimate of the effect of the project's traffic generation on air quality, including carbon monoxide levels. Discuss the effect of traffic improvements or other mitigation measures on air quality impacts. (If the project involves 500 or more parking spaces, consult "EAW Guidelines" about whether a detailed air quality analysis is needed.) Based on projected traffic levels, minimal impacts to overall air quality in the area are anticipated. According to Environmental Quality Board guidance documents no further air quality analysis is required. 24. Stationary source air emissions Will the project involve any stationary sources of air emissions (such as boilers or exhaust stacks)? _ Yes JL No If yes, describe the sources, quantities, and composition of the emissions: the proposed air pollution control devices; the quantities and composition oi the emissions after treatment: and the effects on air quality. 25. WII the project generate dust, odors, or noise during construction and/or operation? X Yes _ No If yes, describe the sources, characteristics, duration, and quantities or intensity, and any proposed measures to mitigate adverse impacts. Also identify the locations of sensitive receptors in the vicinity and estimate the impacts on these receptors. Noise will be generated by project construction. The construction activity is not expected to generate unusual or excessive volumes of construction noise. Construction activities will be limited to normal daylight hours to minimize noise impacts to adjacent areas. No significant noise impacts from the project are anticipated to neighboring areas. Dust will be controlled by the application of water to minimize the potential for dust to be created. Dust levels will be monitored during construction. No odors are expected as a result of construction of the project. r No major dust, odors or noise are anticipated from the golf course after construction is completed. 26. Are any of the following resources on or in proximity to the site: a. archeological, historical, or architectural resources? _X_ Yes b. prime or unique farmlands? _ Yes JL No c. designated parks, recreation areas, or trails? JL Yes _ No No The Wolsfeld Woods Scientific an Natural Area and the Wood Rill Scientific and Natural Area are both located within one mile of the site. There are no existing trails in proximity to the site. However, Hennepin County and the cities of Orono and Medina each have trail plans which reflect trails along roadways in proximity to the site. The trail plan maps are included in Appendix? d. scenic views and vistas? _ Yes JL No e. other unique resources? J(_ Yes __No A 43 acre Big Woods remnant currently exists on the site. If any items are answered Yes, describe the resource and identify any impacts on the resource due to the project. Describe any measures to be taken to minimize or avoid adverse impacts. Response from the Minnesota State Histone Preservation Office (SHPO) to a data request to identify potential sites of historic or archaeological importance indicated that there may be potential sites of historic or archaeological importance within a 500 foot perimeter of Long Lake. SHPO recommended that a survey of the Project Site be conducted. A Phase I Archaeological Site survey has been completed in accordance with established State and Federal standards and is included in appendix E. Two areas of potential historic or archaeological importance were identified. These areas will be investigated further in the spring in accordance with accepted standards and practices Below is the management summary of the phase 1 Cultural Resources Investigation conducted on the Site. The project area consists of upland land forms intermixed with wetlands. Because of snow cover at the time of the survey, shovel testing was implemented in all areas other than steep slopes (> 15 percent grade) and the wetlands. The survey resulted in the recording of one prehistoric archeological site (514-1), four historic sites (514-2, 514-3, 514-4, 514-5), and an historic farmstead. Shovel testing in jnd around the sites resulted in the determination that all but one of the sites is too heavily disturbed to warrant additional archeological work. One historic site, 514-5, consisting of a stone foundation with a collapsed log structure and intact archeological deposits, is recommended for additional work to determine its National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) eligibility. The architectural survey resulted in a determination that the historic standing structures are not eligible for nomination to the NRHP. Additionally, a known historic archeological site is located within the project area (21HE0183). This site was recorded during a survey of alternative corridors for Trunk Highway 12. Additional work was recommended for 21HE0183 (Mather and Nunnally 1995). 17 27. Will the project create adverse visual impacts? (Examples include: glare from intense lights, lights visible in wilderness areas; and large visible plumes from cooling towers or exhaust stacks.) _Yes X No If yes, explain. No adverse visual impacts are anticipated. 28. Compatibility with plans Is the project subject to an adopted local comprehensive land use plan or any other applicable land use, water, or resource management plan of a local, regional, state, or federal agency? _X_ Yes _ No If yes, identify the applicable plans(s), discuss the compatibility of the project with the provisions of the plan(s), and explain how any conflicts between the project and the plan(s) will be resolved. If no, explain. The Cities of Orono and Medina have approved Comprehensive Land Use Plans. Several different Concept Plans were prepared and reviewed for the project. City staff representatives have reviewed the Spring Hill Golf Club preliminary plans and have found them consistent with the proposed land use designations and zoning of the Site. Ongoing discussions with regulatory agencies will facilitate resolution of any conflicts if they arise. 29. Impact on Infrastructure and Public Services Will new or expanded utilities, roads, other infrastructure, or public services be required to serve the project? _X_ Yes _ No If yes, describe the new or additional infrastructure/services needed. (Any infrastructure that is a "connected action" with respect to the project must be assessed in this EAW; see "EAW Guidelines" for details.) Although no new or expanded ‘'rads will be required as a result of the project, it may be necessary to perform repairs or major structural rehabilitation to Spring Hill Road and/or East Long Lake Road in the near term due to the additional traffic generated by the project. Also, traffic safety improvements, such as left turn lanes or left turn bypass lanes may be required on County Road 6 at the east intersection of Spring Hill Road and/or at the intersection of Tamarack Drive. No other improvements or additional infrastructure will be required off-site as a result of the project. 30. Related Developments; Cumulative Impacts a. Are future stages of this development planned or likely? _ Yes _X. No If yes, brieily describe future stages, their timing, and plans for environmental review. b. Is this project a subsequent stage of an earlier project'? _Yes J^No If yes, briefly describe the past development, its timirig, and any past environmental review. c. Is other development anticipated on adjacent lands or outlots? _X_ Yes _ No If yes, briefly describe the development and its relationship to the present project. The City of Orono anticipates future residential growth throughout the surrounding adjacent area. Specific development components are unknown at this time. d. If a, b, or c were marked Yes, di;iC;.‘S3 any cumulative environmental impacts resulting from this project and the other develc-onisn*. The cumulative environmental effects of th e g\.‘h'course project combined with other nearby developments, will be typical of urbanizatiitv, increased land use, higher traffic volumes, increased water use, etc. 31. Other Potential Environmental Impacts if the project may cause any adverse environmental impacts which were not addressed by items 1 to 28, identify and discuss them here, along with any proposed mitigation. None 32. Summary of Issues (This section need not be completed if the EAW is being done for EIS scoping; instead, address relevant issues in the draft Scoping Decision document which must accompany the EAW.) List any impacts and issues identified above that may require further investigation before the project is commenced. Discuss any alternatives or mitigative measures that have been or may be considered for these impacts and issues, including those that have been or may be ordered as permit conditions. Wetland impacts will be mitigated in accordance with the 1996 Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act and the Federal Clean Water Act. The project has been planned to minimize future environmental impact. Many alternatives have been analyzed to minimize impacts to wetlands, water quality of Long Lake, stormwater runoff, traffic, etc.. Feasible alternatives have been incorporated into the current design. A 43 acre Big Woods remnant will be reduced by approximately 49.7%. Alternative measures to mitigate the project's impact on the Big Woods remnant will be analyzed and considered. However, the cities of Orono and Medina do not have regulations in place or authority to require preservation of the Big Woods remnant. Further analysis will be conducted regarding the need for repair or structural rehabilitation of local roads, and regarding the need for safety improvements at intersections on County Road 6.

Joo DATE: February^^? -V ITEM NO.: /=< ^ Department Approval: Name Ron Moorse Title City Administrator Administrator Reviewed: //4 Agenda Section: City Administrator's Report r •Item Description: Vacation Accrual Language Change - Police Officer Contract At its February 10 meeting, the Council approved a contract settlement with the police officers which included new language to allow an exception to the maximum vacation accrual amount in the case of an approved extended vacation period. At the February 10 meeting the specific language implementing the change had not been developed. This language is now being brought forward for Council approval. The current police officer contract provides that the maximum carryover of accrued vacation from one calendar year to the next is 120 hours. The city personnel policy is similar, except the maximum can be exceeded with City Administrator approval. The police officers have requested language that provides for exceeding the maximum accrual amount if the Department Head approves an extended vacation period that requires more than 120 hours of vacation accrual. These types of situations have occurred in the past and have been approved. The requested change will reflect current practice. The recommended new language is as follows: If an employee receives approval from the employee’s department head for an extended vacation period, and the extended vacation period requires more than 120 hours of vacation accrual; the employee will be allowed to carryover an amount of accrued vacation equal to the extended vacation period, to a maximum of 160 hours. It will be necessary for the employee to provide an approved plan of vacation use, both to determine the necessary amount of accrued vacation carryover, and to ensure the employee’s vacation accrual balance will be reduced to the 120 hour maximum limit by the end of the calendar year. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED: Motion to approve amended contract language that provides for exceeding the vacation accrual maximum if needed for an approved extended vacation period. 4 1 REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION A C>7y DATE: February 2lP<(W7 ITEM NO: 1 Department Approval: Name Dorothy Hallin Title City Clerk Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: Licenses Item Description: List of Licenses for Council Approval RESIDENTIAL KENNEL LICENSE - Colleen & Gabriel Jabbour 985 Tonkawa Road Irwin Jacobs 1700 Shoreline Drive Patricia & Rene' Sternau 440 North Arm Drive MALT LIQUOR (BEER) LICENSE -Don Scherven Navarre Lanes 3435 Shoreline Drive (On and Off Sale) Grand Wenkstern Lakeview Golf of Orono, Inc, 405 North Arm Drive (On Sale) William Wear Orono Self Service 2160 Wayzata Boulevard (Off Sale) John O'Sullivan O'Sullivans 3340 Shoreline Drive and 2420 Shadywood Road (Off Sale) SPECIAL EVENT PERMIT Steven R, Bohl - Pillar Homes Spring Home Preview - Parade of Homes March 8 - 23 COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED Motion to approve/deny above listed licenses KENNEL LICENSE APPLICATION Effective January 1, 19 to December 31, 19 pd, CcUJ^. c-tj 'I’i h-7 Owner:f'olU^n 6 Onlyie Property Address: )Vl ^ m mm n7x hho 0 r_____ 7nl Dt'fjnn Mailing Address (if different): (include city and zip) fworkl 4'7 4 - ^ RESIDENTIAL Kennel License Fee: S25.00 (payment must accompany application) Maximum No. of dogs to be kept at one time: IS___________________ (over 6 months of age) Principal Breed: __________________________________ Purpose for more than 2 does: Oli/6l5^0y^_______________________________ Dogs normally kept: ____^inside ____^kennel structure .^2^ COMMERCIAL Kennel License Fee: S150.00 (payment must accompany application) Name of Business;__________________ Business Activities: (example: boarding, breeding, veterinary care, retail, etc.) Normal Business Hours; After Hours Contact; (name) (phone) Dog runs/exercise areas are:inside outside both The undersigned hereby makes application to the Orono City Council for a Kennel License as specified on this form; the undersigned acknowledges that a kennel license is permissive only and does not grant any authority to violate any provision of any City Ordinance or other law or regulation; the undersigend hereby grants the City permisssion to inspect the premises prior to license approval and at any other reasonable time during the license duration; and the undersigned agrees to abide by the requirements of Municipal Code Chapter 5.36 including any special conditions imposed by the City Council as part of any kennel license approval.

Request for Sewer Service By "The Homestead" Neighborhood on North Brown Road 3. Lake MinneK nka Communications Commission Letter Dated 1/29/97 4. LMC-Friday Fax-Dated 2/14/97 i 1 . TO: FROM: DATE: Mayor and City Council Ron Moorse, City Administrator ^ Februaiy' 21, 1997 SUBJECT: Allocation of Bay Ridge/Hartwood Sewer Project Costs The Council approved the Bay Ridge sewer improvement feasibility report at its February 10 meeting, and set a public hearing for March 10. An important issue related to the project which should be discussed prior to the public hearing is the payment of the "trunk" portion of the project costs. The project includes a gravity lateral line that ser\ es the eight Bay Ridge properties. This cost will be paid by the Bay Ridge properties. The project also includes a lift station and trunk force main that serves the Bay Ridge properties but also will serve the Hartwood area to the south at some time in the future. The Engineer has suggested the costs of the lift station and force main be allocated to both the Bay Ridge and Hartwood properties. The Engineer has also suggested that the costs allocated to the Hartwood properties not be assessed until sewer service is provided to the Hartwood area. This means the city would provide "interim financing" of approximately $78,000 of project costs until the city is repaid by Hartwood at the time they receive sewer service. Tlie cost to the city, assuming a fifteen year bond issue at 5%, interest would be approximately $7,500 per year for 15 years. Options 1. The Council could allocate all project costs to the Bay Ridge properties. This would increase the amount of the assessment to the Bay Ridge properties from $20,000 ps-r unit to $30,000 per unit. 2. Assess the Hartwood properties the trunk costs now. This could be difficult since they are not receiving sewer service now. If the Hartwood properties were to be assessed for the trunk costs it would probably need to be a voluntaiy decision by the Hartwood property owners based on paying a portion of their sewer service costs now' and a portion later. Staff can approach the Hartwood property owners regarding the assessment of trunk costs. In the absence of agreement by the Ha' twood property owners, staff recommends the city absorb the trunk costs on an interim basis to be repaid, with interest, through connection charges to the Hartw'ood properties at the time sewer service is provided. wA‘4 \ ^ « CBMI 9 uv*«cn%» I 1? TO: FROM: DATE: Mayor and City Council Ron Moorse, City Administrator February 21,1997 SUBJECT: Request for Sewer Service By "The Homestead" Neighbo»-hood on North Brown Road The city has received a request for sewer service from the Homestead neighborhood located east of Brown Road directly to the south of the North Long Lake sewer project. A letter from the neighborhood is attached as well as a map showing the location of the neighborhood. This neighborhood includes eight lots with six homes. All six homes have non-conforming septic systems. One of the six has a system ihat is beginning to fail. All of the lots are two-plus acre lots and all have an alternate septic site. Because the systems are located within the shoreland district the property owners have a two year time period in which to replace the septic systems. Reasons for Sewer Request The neighborhood is requesting sewer service for se\ eral reasons. 1. 2. 3. If they build new septic systems, they would not have another alternate site. New septic systems would substantially impact their properties in terms of loss of trees, and one property would need to relocate a w'ell. They would like to ensure that the North Long Lake sewer project trunk line is sized sufficiently to ser\'e them at some point in the future. Issues and Obstacles Staff has indicated to the neighborhood that from a technical engineering standpoint it is possible to serve them with sewer but there are a number of issues and obstacles that need to be addressed as part of the city's decision regarding w-hether to serve the neighborhood. These are as follows: •. The neighborhood is not in the MUSA so that providing sewer would require one of two things: A MUSA amendment bringing their two-acre properties into the MUSA would have to be approved by the Met Council. B.The city may be able to use six of the 50 "floating" sewer units that were included in the recent MUSA amendment. However, properties using tliese floating units are to be adjacent to existing sewer. It is questionable whetlier this neighborhood meets that requirement. The city has not developed a set of criteria for allocating the 50 floating sewer units to specific properties. Possible criteria would be as follows; A. Absence ofan alternate site. B.Located in the shoreland district. 2. 3. 4. 5. C. A failing system versus a non-conforming system. The 50 floating units is not a large amount considering there may be several individual properties adjacent to the city’s 10 hot spots plus other properties adjacent to past sewer projects. If the city ser\'es five of the ten hot spots with sewer in the next five years, the 50 floating units would provide for at most 10 floating units per project. However, that does not include other properties which may be adjacent to older sewer project areas. It may be helpful for staff to develop an inventory of properties that are adjacent to sew er lines in the city that could potentially request sewer service - particularly those without an alternate septic site. The city has ver>' limited sewer capacity to serv^e this neighborhood, as well as the entire Highway 12 area. This is a short temi limitation in that the Highway 12 upgrade project will include a sewer expansion project. However, this leaves the city with very limited sewer capacity until the year 2001 or 2002. The neighborhood was advised that if they are served with sewer it would be through a separate project and the costs of the project would be 100% assessed to the neighborhood. An option discussed with the neighborhood was that the city could decide to serve the neighborhood with sewer, and that the project could be constructed in 1997, but the connection to the system would be delayed until the sewer capacity issue was resolved in 2001 or 2002. The City Engineer has indicated that the trunk line of the North Long Lake project has sufficient capacity to also serve the Homestead neighborhood. Timing of Decision Because the city iio'- we sufficient sewer capacity to serve this neighborhood for a five or six year period, the Couiica ;i>ay want to put the required septic replacement on hold until the Council can address the issues related to allocation of the 50 floating sewer units and make a determination as to whether this neighborhood should be served with sewer.

As I indicated, I am the spokes person for the undersigned. We agreed that as many of the interested oarties as possible will meet in the Orono city offices at 8:00 AM on February.+2nf to discuss the issues as they relate to our common septic problems. // All of us have a common situation. Our septic systems no longer conform to the new state code or are about to fail. With the possible exception of the Stein’s, all of us have only a single location for a new septic field and that location is inadequate from an aesthetic standpoint. In addition, there are no back up sites available on any of the lots. Mary and I are also in a situation where the new field would be too close to our well and that would also require a new well. I have discussed this with Steve, the City of Orono Engineer. While sympathetic to our situation, he cannot bend the regulations. Upon discussing this with him, he did outline a scenario we can follow which may provide relief for all of us. While the official policy of the city is to mandate septic Vs sewer on lots over 2 acres in size, we understand that the Council does have the ability to modify that policy. Having said that, Steve told us that the sewer line which will be servicing the Country Club and North Long Lake neighborhoods will actually be traveling mulh along the east side of Brown Road. This means, the sewer line will actually be put through the western edge of the Schultzc property. This means the trunk sewer line will be put in close proxim.ity to all properties.r»»ir There would appear to be some urgency because the January 22nd issue of the Sun Sailor contained an article infonning us that the sewer system for North Long Lake and Country Club is being put out for bid during April of this year. Our concern is that the trunk sewer line being put in may not support the additional volumes needed to support our homes if our homes are not included in the project plan. This would mandate the building of the aforementioned poor aesthetic situation without backup locations. This would not appear to be in anyone ’s best interest. I 1 Please consider the letter to be a petition to Council requesting an action which would include our properties in the North Long Lake and Country Club master plan.

No. 6 February 14,1997 Levy limits on the horizon? $85 million of city aid was shifted into the school formula to kG6;3 schco: levies down. But from 1990 to 1996. school levies increased by 51.1 percent. Over the same period, city le>/ies increased 29.1 percent Even if the legislature does not pass meaningful reform this session, there will surely be a push for some form of levy con straint on cities and counties by many legislators and other inter ested parties Legislators need to get the message that cHies are not the main driver in increased property taxes They need to understand the real-life impact of levy limits when unique circumstances arise like the disastrous weather of the past few months They need to know that city officials want propehy tax reform, but also need to be able to raise sufficient ravenues to fund city services. League staff has been spreading these mes,?ages at the Capitol and v;ill continue to do so, but the message hits home ail the more strongly when it comes from city officials like you. House Tax committee to look at TIF and intrastate competition Property tax reform discus sion? are tiealing up at the legisla ture. With those discussions comes the inevitable talk of impos ing a property tax freeze or rein stating levy limits. At a recent Minnesota Government Relations Council conference. House Tax Chair Dee Long mentioned that the legislature may need to con sider levy limits as part of lax reform. Many legislators appear to support reform principles consis tent with certain aspects of the League's policy - increasing the state’s share of school funding, simplifying the classification system, compressing the class rates without shifting burden to lower-rate classes Many legisla tors share our concern that there is an over-reliance on the property tax Increasing state funding of schools would grant property tax relief statewide. Yet the legislature seems unv,/i!ling to offer property tax relief without some guarantee that property taxes will remain lower. We have heard many legislators state that they believe any property tax relief will be erased within a few years through increased city and county levies The only way they feel that they can ensure lower property taxes is to impose levy limits or a freeze, or to require voter referenda for increases in city and county levies. Ironically, it has been school levies which have shown the greatest growth In 1990 almost Fvr nwre information on city UghhUhe Huun. conuul any memher of the Leagm of Minnesota Cities Intergosenuncntal RdaUons teairt On I uesday.

The State Auditor’s office v-all present to the committee findings related to its new TIF enforcement responsibilities We expect the report to highlight provisions in the TIF statutes that have been interpreted differently by different groups. The second topic of the hearing will involve a discussion of intrastate competition among cities for development. Several recent news stories have sug gested that Tl.- IS being used to lure businesses from one city to another. These stories have provided additional ammunition to TIF critics.

San Diego is the linchpin of the California enterprise, as the city goes. It IS believed by people on both sides of the issue, so will go the whole plan to create a sprawling network of nature preserves containing scores of Imperiled species like the San Die go fairy shrimp, the California gnat- catcher and the Otay mesa mint. The prospects for passage of the proposal appear favorable, not the least because Mayor Susan Golding, a moderate Republican, is an enthu siastic advocate Areas designated as preserves in other communities would be voted on by local govern ments. but they are widely expected to follow San Diego s Ie.id Some sec ondary aspects of the San Diego plan are still being negotiated by the c<' i- trist group of environmenialisL* ' .*• velopers and government officials who have been striving for six years to pul It together Bui the plan is under assault from opponents on the right, who see 11 as an attack on properly rights, and those on the left, who see it as a sellout to developers Many seten- (isis and environmemalisis question whether the approach would serve any ecosystem well enough to be bull! iniu Federal law The biggest sticking point, say these critics, is the plans central feature that of absolving landown ers of further responsibility for pro tecting endangercHJ species once ihe preserve system w.is in place The Clinton Administrattun has. by ad- minlsiraiive fiat, built this “no sur prises’* policy into scores of other, mostly less sweeping or more rural hablial conservation plans around the country that together have re sulted In more than four million acres of protected hubiiai. The draft legislation now being circulaiiHl by sen.iior John H Ch.ifee of Rhode Island and Senator Dirk Kempihornc of Idaho, w ho head envi ronmental committees, would put a Congressional stamp of approval on the no-surpnses policy But nature is nut static, say critics of the plan Rather. 11 is full of sur prises Sjiccies populations vary un- prediciablv for all sons of natural r ^ A I,' .1 reasons, they say. while habitats shift, and It could turn out that fur ther protection would be needed In a few years The landscape in question is a de ceptively austere-looking collection of hills and canyons richly carpeted by a wide range of plant groupings And It Is a part of the country where 80 to 90 percent of the natural ecosys tem has already succumbed to agri culture or development and there is little margin for error Many of the Southern California plant and animal species exist no where else, and a recent study found A six-year effort to save many species rides on a San Diego City Council vote. that development's Inroads on their habitat had inaiio S.in Diego ('ouniv a super hot spot of eiidangermeni In all, about 200 species of plants and animals in the county are considered imperiled Until now the Endangered Species Act in Southern California, as in many other places, has been applied on a iracl-by-iract. spectes-by-spe- cies basis that costs developers time, money and endless regulatory entan glement. Moreover, this nickel-and- dime approach has failed lo halt the decline of the ecosystem The proposed approach is de signed to remedy all this, and also to prevent many plants and animals from becoming imperiled “It was just crystal near that we had lu cumnilt headlong to make it woik.

Some said they feared that it would result in the loss of open space outside the preserves Others said they worried that panicular species, especially those like the Otay mesa mint and the San Diego fairy shrimp, both of which live in very small areas, would fall through the cracks of a landscape-level plan. Some ques tion whether endangered species could recover or would be frozen in I hen im|H-njed status And some aUamamly opjxjse any compromise with development.

Murphy of Stan ford University, a conservation biolo gist who has been a scientific adviser to (he California project, said that neither the unpredictability of nature nor inadequate data would be fatal to the plan as long as (here was a way IQ make future adjustments. And that is the nub of the debate. Proponents say the plan does not prevent future changes, but rather guarantees that the landowner would not have to pay for them. "No-sur- puses, tn effect, puts the burden of fuiure measures on the government, where it bekmgs." Secretary Babbitt said. Once a San Diego deal has been struck, future chgjiges could be made only upon a finding of "ex traordinary circumstances" by the Government, which would bear the burden of proof as well as of pay ment for any measures undertaken. Some environmentalists argue that this would make change too difficult. On the other side of the IdeologlcgJ divide, conservatives raise property- rights objections. One of them U Bill Horn, a conaervailve Republican who :s chairman of the San Olego County Board of Supervisors. He Mrongly opposes the plan.

Ariz. — The plane dips below the brown cloud and lands m the urban heart of the American Southwest: hope, com merce and chaos stretched to the horizon in the Sonoran Desert. Con suming land at the rate of an acre an hour, metropolitan Phoenix - and its new frontiers like Carefree — is now bigger than Delaware. You drive to Scottsdale, a gangly suburb. It is brimming with p" )s- perity, resorts and lawyers in tank- tops doing business by cellular phone in the shade of saguaro cacti. In 1950, barely 2.000 people lived on the single square mile that was Scottsdale; today it is three times the physical size of San Francisco. BECOMING LOS ANGELES First of two articles. with 165.000 people. After coursing through traffic for nearly an hour, you arrive at the edge of the megalopolis. Here the desert buckles up toward national forest land, in the sweet-smelling exurb of Carefree. Developers are scraping away mesquite and palo- verde. replacing them with signs offering “one-acre lots In a future gated community “ But after years of being re strained only by how fast it could pour concrete. Phoenix may finally be reaching its limit. The air is so bad at times that people who came to the desert seeking good health are warned to stay indoors While some schools have swimming pools, others are short of textbooks and a Federal court has ordered the system to get more state financing. And some thing called "the inner city." built about 30 years ago. is an urban orphan — denounced for its crime, racial conflict and abandonment. It was not supposed to be this way. this early. Phoenix, like other Western cities swollen with Califor nia exiles, has matured under a mantra that it would not become another Los Angeles — an all-pur- Continued on Pufie 14, Column I 30 20 10 ■^0 0 r ^940 50 60 70 -80 *90 The Bureau aeiines uroan as Cities V nacies Dorouqns ana towns ^'in at leasi 2 500 peoD'e or outivmg areas with at 'east 1 000 oeoDie oer square mne The New York Times Continued From Page J pose putdown. Community leaders vowed to build a new kind of American city here in the desert and in places like Seattle, Salt Lake City and Denver, cities close to nature. livable and sustainable. But as the urban West goes through the third maior growth boom in four decades, some of the shiny Western cities are becom ing tneir worst nightmare. Los Angeles symptoms — bad-air alerts, traffic gridlock, loss of open space, huge gulfs between the rich and the poor — are becoming impossi ble to Ignore For all their open space, the 13 states ot the West maka up the most urban region in America. Sixty years ago, little more than half of all Westerners lived in cities. Today. 86 percent reside in urban areas. Utah, at 87 percent, has a higher percentage of city dwellers than New York, at 80 percent, according to a Census Bureau ranking of people who live in places with at least 2,500 people or a density of 1,000 per square mile. The new urban West has 6 of the 15 fastest growing metropolitan areas in the nation. They are the magaiine-cover cities, the trendv. high-tech centers of Seattle and Porland. Ore., flourishing in a climate with eight months of driizle; the nature-defying desert cities of Phoenix and Las Vegas, pArddisc for devolopcrs, and the Roclcy Mountain kingdoms of Denver and Salt Lake City, thriving on their proximity to vertical playgrounds. On average, these metropolitan areas are growing by 50.000 people a year. Their new lobs come from the kind of Industries that are made for a world economy; tourism, telecommunications, trade and computer technology. These cities consider them selves blessed by nature and circumstance. "There's a pride people take once they move here, people pinching themselvM as they say. God. Tm glad Tm here.* ** said Dr. Ray Sluder, director of the Urban and Re gional Planning Program at the University of Colorado in Boulder. “That s sometimes followed by. ‘Now let's close the door.’ ” But as healthy as these ciUes are in jobs and scenery, they, like California, are dis covering that luck, benign climate and opti mism are not enough. Indirectly, some of these cities have pul the full force of their taxpayer-financed Infrastructure behind urban sprawl. Twes paid for roads that quickly brought fourfold Increases in congestion and dirty air. And the very tax structure that attracted new industries and home builders with promises of rock-boitom property-tax rates is now crippling schools and fostering a shortage of parks and community space. •My rule of thumb is that the faster the rate of sprawl, the faster the rate of aban donment." said David Rusk, the former Mavor of Albuquerque. N.M.. who has stud ied urban-patterns in more than 300 cities. "You look at Detroit, which has lost a mil lion or so people. It consumed land at 13 times the rate of population growth.” Some people blame ihe bloated urban areas on a political climate that holds pri- vale property concerns up as a sacred right and IS opposed to taxes intened to finance the uiiimate cost of growth. Under the flag of property rights, developers have been •.hiP »o resist efforts to curb excess, or set "It’s an old Western ethic: don't tell me what to do on my property." said Gov. Roy Romer of Colorado. But others say the pav ing of paradise is happening at an incremen tal enough rate that few people see the big picture. "We are repeating the mistakes of L.A..” said Steven Boand. the former Mayor of Castle Rock, a city of 16.000 people just south of Denver. "But it’s happening slowly, so that the average Joe only secs pan it. like the traffic congestion, and doesn't connect it to everything else.” Onlv Portland, which long ago decided to defy the boom mentality and consciously design a future city, seems situated to enter the new century without having to spend billions of dollars to fix problems brought by excesses at the end of the old century. •These cities all think they're special, because they're set in such special places," said Robert Liberty, the director of 1,000 Friends of Oregon, a group that monitors urban growth issues. "But they are delu sional." The Symptoms Sprawl, Congestion And Polluted Air In Phoenix, where the sound of air- powered nail guns is almost a civic anthem, there is a group called “Not reflecting the general sentiment of people trying to avoid past urban mistakes. But the city of Phoenix, with just over a million people, now surpasses Los Angel^, which has three limes as many people, in sprawl, its city limits covenng 469 square miles. Most days, its air is among the dirtiest in the nation, outside of Southern Callfoi^a. *Tve been driving from one meeting about sprawl to the other for the last 15 years, and the only thing that’s changed is that now it takes a lot longer to get there.” said Rob Melnick, director of the Morrison Institute for Public Policy at Arizona State Universi ty. Las Vegas, the fastest growing city in the United States throughout the 1990 ’s. now ranks among the five metropolitan areM with the worst air. The region will reart the limit of its current water supply within the next 10 years or so. Just a five-hour drive across the desen from Southern Callfomli Las Vegas has become, in some respects, th e ultimate extension of Los Angeles. In keeping with its founding character, the city Is Jazzy and electric, with 9 of the 10 largest hotels in the world. The construction crane is the most com mon city bird. There is a labor short^e. Nw residents come for the climate and for the hyperactive job market in construction rtd gambling. Thousands of stucco-walled, red- roof-tiled homes on artificial lakes are so d for nearly half the price they would fetch in metropolitan Los Angeles. But pulling a city that may soon be bigger than Detroit in an area that receives only four inches of ram a year has forced a reckoning.Unlike Arizona, which requires proof of a 100-year water supply before development can go forward. Las Vegas promises water to virtually all new developments — regard less of the prospect of shortages. The city's initial reaction to its water deficit in the early 1990 ’s. was to put a moratonum on new development But after coming under heavy pressure from home builders and hotels. Las Vegas again opened the gates to unrestricted growth in 1992. Following a path taken by Los Angeles when It tripled in size near the turn of the century. Las Vegas is going after distant water supplies in the fragile desert, and It has threatened to sue if It does not get a change in how water in the West Is allocated. Some new Denver suburbs are projected to run out of water within a decade. But what people living along the Front Range in Colo- rado complain about most is the loss of open space. From Fort Collins in the north to Colorado Springs in the south, a swath of beige-colored, two-story homes and boxy noegastores has been planted along a 110- mlle stnp. with Denver in the middle. "I can't believe that you all want to be come one big city,” Governor Romer said at a growth summit this year, where he warned of Los Angeles-style problems. The last Denver boom, nearly 20 years ago. came from big oil. mining and coal companies, ripping open the Rockies to meet energy needs. This time, it Is non-polIutlng industries, and Denver has become the cable television capital of the world. On the other side of the Rockies, in Salt I yit» City, is a mirror image of greater Denver's problems. Nearly 80 percent of Utah’s two million people live along an 80- mile urban strip abutting the Wasatch Moun tain Front. There Is fuU employmenL with thousands of new jobs In high-tech firms. But it has come at a price. The New York- New Jersey metropolitan area has better air quality than the Salt Lake Valley when meas ured for carbon monoxide, one of the main components of unhealthy air. City officials say that unless Salt Lake acts to limit sprawl and curb auto emissions, the face it will present to the world during the 2002 Winter Olympics could be obscured by a soup of pollutants. Seattle, often rated the most livable city In America, now ranks among the top five Cities for traffic congestion. Residents In a 60-mile-long metropolitan area, hemmed in by Puget Sound on one side and the Cascade Mountains on the other, have Just voted to build a M billion mass transit sys tem and have adopted strict laws to end ***Bu't'many fear that Seattle, as It goes through yet another enormous populaUon surge prompted by Job growth at the Boeing Company and the Microsoft Corporation, will become a city where only the upper middle class can afford to own home The Microsoft millionaires, about 3.000 past or present employees of the software Mmpany who made it big on stock apprecia tion, are a dominant obsession in the area as they build waterfront techno<astles on Lake Washington. ,«««« But with the slate projecting that 300.000 more people will move into the Seattle met ropolitan area m just the next four years - the bii^cst growth spurt since the monumen- lal hiring binge at Boeing during World War II - political leaders say there will be a severe shortage of moderate-priced housing in the area. HoAr It Happened Subsidizing Sprawl With More Sprawl American cities form m a blink, and that is panicularly true in the West California had the first big wave of auto-driven urban cen ters in the West. They promised the best of all worlds: orderly city life just down the road from orange blossoms or walnut groves. It changed almost overnight. In the 1930‘s. California's population was at four million — not far from where Colorado is today r- and Los Angeles County was still one of the country’s leading agricultural producers. By 1994, California's population hit 32 mil lion, and more than 500.000 jobs. net. disap peared from the state in the 1990’s. The ironic highlight, perhaps, was a 1994 report issued by the Bank of America on the dan gers of Califomia-siylc growth. Titled "Beyond Sprawl," the document stunned some people with its blunt conclu sions. “Unchecked sprawl has shifted from an engme of California's growth to a force that now threatens to inhibit growth and degrade the quality of life.” the report said. “We can no longer afford the luxury of sprawl." The report had all the more power, coming from a bank that had financed mucn of the sprawl. But just as California was having second thoughts, the newly robust Western cities were going down a path taken by the Golden State. Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Phoenix and some Denver suburbs went on road-building binges and offered cheap land, low taxes and minimal government interference for devel opers. Water, always a problem in the arid West, was offered with few restncttons. At a cost of more than $4 billion, most of it fi nanced by Federal tax dollars, water from the Colorado River was brought to Phoenix and Tucson, through the Central Arizona Project. Phoenix completed the Supersution Free way. going east: bulldozers followed. It is sometimes called the "Cul de Sac Freeway," because a nearly SO-mile stretch of develop ments has built up on both sides of the road. The huge new developments that are tak ing root here lure buyers with a promise of a secluded desert life style. And indeed, coy otes and javeluias dash across fresh pave- iiient Herons swoop for prey on golf course lakes. But there is less seclusion and less desert with every passing hour. The Arizona Republic has been runnuig a senes on sprawl titled, "An Acre an Hour." In the nearly three years that the senes has been running, 25.000 acres of Sonoran Desen have disappeared to pavement. "Nobody in this town has ever said no to a developer,” said Don Steuier. an air<ondi- tioner repairman and avid hiker who has been fighting the new developments on the northern edge of Phoenix. "We spend tax dollars to encourage sprawl, and then it comes back to us as air pollution." Seattle, using Federal dollars, completed Interstate 90. the most costly seven-mile stretch of road ever built at the time, with a pnce tag of $1 5 billion Finished in 1991. it cleared an eight-lane path through the lorest east of Lake Washington and encouraged development in the Cascade foothills certain tax structures did to create budget crises. Utah passed a law that stipulated that as propeny values rise, the overall tax rate of a given area must fall. It also limited what any local government could charge develop ers for new services like roads and sewers. The result, some officials say. is that each new home in suburban Salt Lake City puts local government further in debt. And there have been plenty of new homes — 200.000 people, enough to create a city bigger than Salt Lake, have moved to the greater metro politan area in tlK last five years. "What happens as we build new subdivi sions IS that there has been a crisis m local government," said Michael Christensen, di rector of the Utah Foundation, a Salt Lake think tank. Colorado’s tax structure indirectly encour ages smaller cities on the edge of expanding urban areas to build malls or other commer cial structures, killing their mam street busi nesses. Unable to raise property taxes be yond a certain ceiling, local governments are forced to get most of their money from as many retail outlets as they can attract "We were losmg all our sales tax dollars to these big regional malls." said Mr. Boand of Castle Rock. "To compensate, we were forced to let a big outlet mall come in here. We were roundly criticized for that but our town was teetering on the verge of bankrupt cy." Castle Rock is in Douglas County, the fastest growing county in America, by per centage, over the last five years. It grew 65 percent, to a population of 100,000. The fact that It could nearly go broke in the midst of an unprecedented boom says something about how the new urban West is developing. The biggest development in Douglas Coun ty is Highlands Ranch, an unincorporated community of more than 10,000 new homes on broad streets in the wind-swept, treeless prairie Just south of Denver. Some of the homes look as if they were just dropped from the sky, on streets named for endangered species like the spotted owl. The school distnet in the area is building nine new schools, but it still cannot keep up. Many children are taught in modular class rooms. Because Colorado's tax structure limits the percentage of money a district can get from property taxes, a booming county like Douglas sees hardly any new money from a huge surge In population. As a result. Douglas County is not only the fastest-growing school district in the state, but It has nearly the lowest per-student spending rauo. said Jill Fox. a spokeswoman for the Douglas County schools. New but malnounshed schools, subsidized sprawl, tax structures that ultimately bank rupt growing communities — these problems were never part of the master plan of the new Western cities. The Coming Crises New Roads Lead To More Trouble Major floods used to be quarter-century events in the Puget Sound region. Now. al most every winter, the river valleys east of Seattle swell with coffee-colored water and overwhelm roads and farms. The fastest-growing suburbs like Issaquah and Redmond used to be sponges that soaked up winter rains. But now the horror of winter storms in Southern California is a Seattle occurrence: water runs down fresh-paved cul-de-sacs and crushes everything below. "The sponge is full." said Tom Koney, a policy analyst with King County, which gov erns the Seattle metropolitan area. In effect, nature is forcing a crisis. In the arid West, the absence of water is forcing the cities to confront the consequences of their new popularity: In Seattle, the presence of water ts doing the same. "It was only when the latest rating came out, showing that our air is the second worst in the country, that the business community here in Phoenix finally freaked oul" said Mr. Melnick. of the Arizona think tank. The new proposals by the Environmental Protection Agency to tighten the standards for unhealthy levels of soot and smog, an nounced this month, have raised alarms throughout the West The cities that fall to comply could face a loss of Federal road money or other sanctions that could stifle their ambitions. Denver, following the lead of Seattle and Portland, is likely to vote on a mass transit proposal next year. Salt Lake City is plan ning a small light rail system. But m the next 5 to 10 years, there will be a severe crunch, city officials throughout the West say. Utah is $3 billion short of the money it needs just to keep up with basic toad repair and improvements in the new suburban areas. Colorado is S8 billion short. SttU. pouring more pavemem ts the option of choice "We're going to build roads, and lots of them.” Gov. Michael 0. LeavltL Re publican of Utah, said after playing host to a statewide growth summit last year. But if past patterns are an indication, every mile of new road brings with it an increase in some of the worst urban ills these cities say they are trying to avoid. California's population grew by 50 percent from 1970 to 1990, but the number of miles traveled by cars and trucks in the state increased 100 percent In the decade from 1980 to 1990, the population around Seattle rose 22 percent while the number of miles driven by cars in the region quadrupled. Similarly, traffic in Denver has increased at twice the rate of local population growth. So. even though the city has made big strides in gettmg nd of Its brown cloud, with cleaner cars bumuig cleaner fuels, the huge uicrease in traffic brought by sprawl threatens to undermine all the gains, city officials say. “What are we doing here?'* Governor Romer said. "Nothing brings this whole issue home more clearly than when you fly over the Front Range and look down and see this . gigantic city taking shape, sprawling more than a hundred miles. Is this what we want?" Trying to cope, edges of the new cities are taking somewhat panicky, small measures. Redmond, where Microsoft is based, is' plan ning to implement a head tax — charging businesses S65 annually for every employee who worKS in the city Gilbert, a Phoenix suburb that is adding 10.000 people a year, just enacted a moratori um on the building of new homes. The city grew by 412 peicent in the 1980's. and it may surpass that in the 1990’s. It charges develop ers up to S1.800 per home for services, but that does not begin to pay for all the other problems that come with building a sudden citv out of nowhere, town officials sav 14 y TffB New YORK TtMBS NATIONAL S(;ND>I K DECCMBER 29 1994 Paradise Paved: Urban Sprawl Puts Growing Strain on Western States “We say we don't want to be like Los Angeles, and yet we are,” said Phyliss Al- berty, the Gilbert town clerk.

DECEMBER 30. 1996 PnnM « CJwac*ONE DOLLAh Drawing the Hard Line on Urban Sprawl By TIMOTHY EGAN PORTLAND. Ore. — One of the great challenges of the West, the writer Wallace Stegner said, was to build a avilixauon to match the setting. But as 6 of the IS fastest-growing cities in the nation come of age in the West, spilling into forests, de serts and mountain valleys, the only urban area that appears to be most consciously trymg to shape itself as a new kind of Amencan city is Portland While other 1990*s boom cities like Phoenix. Denver. Salt Lake and Las Vegas were following a predictable pattern of unchecked growth, taking on the bloat and sprawl of Los Angeles. Portland went the other way. Ignoring lawsuits and pressure from commercial and develop ment interests. Portland — aett^ on a much-fought-over new sute law — simply drew a line around the metropolitan area, beginning in the late 1970's. On one side would be forests, farms and open space; on the other would be the city. The aim was to force jobs, homes and stores into a relatively compact area, served by light rail, buses and cars. Skepucs said it would be impos sible to contam a fast-growing city like Portland within a political boundary, without sending jobs away or killing property values. It seemed even more unlikely that a big city in the West could force people out of their cars, as Port land. with a current populauon of about 450,000 tned to do. tearing up a downtown freeway and putting a limit on parkmg spaces. But instead of lost jobs, a silicon forest of high-tech campuses and fanones grew inside the new ur- OM rtHmm Mr m Mtv V«t Portland’s light rail lystem.

Instead of falling property values, home prices have soared. And uistead of losing popu lauon. Oregon added 500.000 peo ple. mosUy ui Portland and the Willamette Valley to the south, in the last IS years. It did so with the stnetest laws against urban sprawl in the nation. Many of the newer compaiues ui Oregon — among them Hewlett- Packard. Intel and Hyundai — say they moved here because there are forests, fruit orchards and me andering creeks just across the street from the contamed urban areas. The employers said they wanted to locate in an area that could attract educated workers who were as interested m quality of Ufe as a paycheck. “This IS where we are headed worldwide." said Bill Calder. a spokesman for InteL the computer chip manufacturer that has nearly 9,000 employees in Oregon. "Com panies that can locate anywhere they want will go where they can attract good people ui good places." A number of criucs say Oregon IS unique, and that its poliucal cul ture — It is known as New England on the Pacific Rim — and relauve- ly small populauon of 3.2 million allow It to experiment and unker.

Boulder, Colo. The Best Laid Plans Are Undermined Nearly 40 years ago. Boulder. Colo., tried to control its future on its own. setung itself up as an ideal mix of wild and urban — a midsized city pressed agauist the vertical flank of the Rockies. 30 miles from Denver. Starung in 1959, Boulder drew a line in the mountains just above the city, above which no water or sewer services could be extend ed. Then, in 1967. Boulder started to take a portion of the sales tax and buy up open space, mostly ranch land that was being sold to commeraal developers. It has smee pur chased 25.000 acres. In 1976. Boulder went a step further, setting a limit on residential growth, at 2 percent a year. For a ume. it seemed to work From 1976 to 1993. the populauon remained relatively stable but the economy grew at a vigorous rate with the creauon of new jobs. This year. mercial growth — the most contested step It has yet taken. At nlghu It IS clear what Boulder has done Above the city, there are no urban lights massed along the mountains. A sign just blocks from the edge of the city says, "This is a mountam lion's home," and mdeed, there are fresh cougar tracks in the snow. The line has held Boulder at bay. But if Boulder thought it could keep the sprawl of greater Denver from coming its way, it was wrong. A series of oommunlUes sprang up along Hlj^ay 36. between Denver and Boulder. On the praine where the Arapaho and Chey enne people once roamed, there are tens of thnu«Mwt« of new three4)edroom. two^tny, cedar-decked homes massed in develof^ with Indian names, and beautifully landscaped headquarters of high-tech cotn- An occasional ranch or two stands out incongruously. The Rockies are close enough to feel their breath. But on some days, the mountains are obscured by Denver's brown cloud, drlftmg north. At rush hour. Highway 36 is a parking lot all the way back to Denver. in essence, the megalopolis has come m Boulder. It is an island no mon. "The lesson is: we can't do this alone. In Isolation,'' said John Carpenter, the commu nity development director of Westminster, a fast-growmg Denver suburb. Like Boulder, Westnunster had tried to control its fate by limiting development and buying open space. But greater Denver has engulfed tt. "They are things we have no control over, no matter how many laws we pass hi West- mmster." he sakL In both Phoenix and Denver, officials have made a strong effort to purchase open space before it is lost to development Phoenix boasts of havuig the largest munictpal park in the world, the 2SJIOO acres of South Moun tain Park. But as one branch of government the aty. has been trying to buy vacant land for parks and wildlife, another branch, the of Arizona, has been selling it to hous ing developers because it needs to make money for the state. "It's like funding cancer research and giving subsidies to tobacco growers at the same tune." said Scott Phelps, a spokesman for Mayor Skip Rimsza of Phoenix. Colorado has faced the same predicament The state, which first showed its poliUcal mentality when it voted down a chance to host the Olympic Games m 1976. has used a portion of lottery money to buy land. Still. In the last 10 years alone, more than 500.000 acres of open space has been lost to develop ment But this vear. voters passed a constitution al amendment that will allow the state to designate as protected open space some of the land that had been set aside as revenue- generaung property. In short, instead of buy ing open land, they are just not sellmg or developing open land owned by the state. "This was a huge change — a very big deal around here." said Gov. Roy Romer of Colo- rado.Governor Romer favors an Oregon-style 'rnurfh rw*an*a«»mfT^Eni Olan for hlS SIBIC.

This is the fight to fight" Prof. Ray Studer. sitting in a University of Colorado office in Boulder on a day when winds had blown the smog away and me mountains seemed newly polished, believes that me urban West may yet live up to its promise, mough It faces ingrained political opposition. "There is a spirit of Innovation and new ness here, still a sense of the possible." said Professor Studer. who is dmector of me Urban and Regional Planning Program at the University. "Nobody in Colorado is willingly tryuig to screw up me land or dirty me air." he said "This kind of stuff happens because we West erners are noL by nature, a planning cul ture." Salt Lake City A Vision of Place Fades Over Time Westerners have, m fact tned to plan for orderly growth, starting in IS47 in me Salt Lake Valley, where Mormon pioneers set out the region's first planned urban develop ment acting on Brigham Young's directive. "This IS me place,** By careful design, me streets of Salt Lake were to be 88 feet wide, me sidewalks 20 feet wim houses set 20 feet back from me street A large part of me city was set aside as me common area. The problem has been mamtaming a cen tral vision over ume. This is evident ui tiie Salt Lake of today, where me fastest-growmg areas around me city are a hodgepodge of new suburbs and developments creepuig up the sides of me Wasatch Range. **ls this still me nght place?*' said Roben Libeny. of 1000 Friends of Oregon, in a recent speech before cnnc leaders in Utah.

"Or will you become just another place to be abandoned? will me bnsize pioneers stare sadly out m me smog into a murky future where me dream of community has been lost?** Seattle at me turn of me .century had a master plan for boulevards, parks and wa terways In me 1960's. it cleaned up Lake Washington before mere was a Federal man date to do so. But It turned down mass transit opting for more highwavs instead. AS a result traffic grew four times as fast as me population. Last month, people in me Seattle metro area fmallv approved a plan to build a $4 billion rail and bus svstem. costing residents four times what it would have cost in inflauon-adiusted dollars, to do me same mrng 20 years earlier.

"Developers will go wherever mey can make a buck." said Rob Melnick. head of the Momson Institute for Public Policy at An- zona State University. "If you charge mem more to build on the far suburban edge, they'll pay it and just pas^that on the homebuyer." Portland. Ore. The Next Challenge: A Population Tide Oregonians dellgnt at being contranan. The force behind meir plan was Tom McC^ the Republican Governor in me earlv I970’s. who once said lie loved Oregon more man life Itself. Governor McCaU told Oregomans that they faced a choice between "sageb^ subdivisions and coastal condonuniuins." or towns that blended gently into the state's stunning natural environment In 1973, Mr. McCall signed a law that required every one of Oregon's cities and counties to write land-use plans that limited sprawi and protected farms, forests and open space. They were to draw boundaries around the aties or face legal sancuons. Three times, in 1976.1978 and 1982, devel opers and other commercial Interests brought ballot measures before the voters to repeal the act, and three times. Oregomans voted to keep the tough anu-sprawl meas ures. Today, a clear line — with ciucs on one side, and open spi cc on the other — can be seen from the air. The difference is parucu- larly graphic along the Washington-Oregon border.' Just across the Columbia River, in Washington State, much of suburban Gark County spills out in myriad directions over what used to be (arm land. Oregon , which had been losing 30.000 acres of agncultural land a year, is now losing only 2J)00 acres a year. Colorada by contrast, is loaing nearly 50J)00 acres a year. PorUand today has a ughL dense down town area that caters to pedestnans: where once there was a freeway along the nver, there is now the most-used city park, named for Mr. McCall. The citVs lighi-rail system. MAX. has exceeded cxpeciauons for use and populanty. This year, the Metro government of Port land adopted an even stricter plan for its ihree<ouniy metro area. It envisions adding 500.000 people within the e.xisung urban boundanes Officials in the Metro governing bodv. which controls develoomeni of the ihree- countv area that contains 24 individual cities, are constantly fcmindink, T artland residents of a population ude that will engulf them if they don't act saying. "We'll be having 75 nAooffk hv dinner lime than we had In an attempt to control the size of stores sprvigmg up m indusinal areas, ihe pian limits retail outlets to 80.000 square feet And while Portland has long limned pant ing spaces downtown, the new plan resincts the number of parkmg spaces at new stores. Angry retailers say the restncuon will hurt them: Poniand officials counter that it will merely encourage people to take public Iran- . sit, When Seattle followed Portland's lead in lU 1994 urban growth plan, it acniaiiy down-. zoned SO square miles of what used to be an . area designated for new homes into a rural and forest category. This set off howls of outrage But so far. the boundary has sur vived court and political challenges. There is something of a seif-congratuia- toiy — critics call it smug — tone about what Portland has done. "We have been careful stewards of the land and have fought to protect our natural resources against the urban sprawl that has plagued almost every other meiropoiltan area in this country," said Mike Burton, Metro's execuuve officer, m a menage sent to Poniand residents. "We have worked hard to mamtam our enviable quality of life." The real test for Portland will come after another million or so people have moved there. Then the ciucs will face a question of allowing more apartments and town houses into their chenshed single-family neighbor hoods or spilling into the rural areas they have just fought so hard to preseive, •*Ai some point with those aties you get into a quesuon of density: wiU people stUl move there if they can't live in a b^ home with a yard?*' said Phil Burgess, president of the Center for the New West a Denver research orgamzauon. Mr. Burgess said sprawl could stUl be comroUed by relying less on state govern ment and more on market forces, bui takuig into account the true costs of building instant cides on open land. If developers were forced to pay fully for roads, sewers, schools and other necessities, they would be more likely to rebuild within the existing urban area, he sakL "You make them pay the full costs and all of a sudden that S130.000 home in the far suburbs is S230.000." Mr. Burgess said. And Oregon's plan has not been entirely/ successful in containing sprawl In the town of Bend, east of the Cascades, officials mere ly drew a broad urban boundary. While this complied with the letter of the law. it allowed strip development to spill out m two dlrec**^ uons from the city. The other major complaint agamst Oregwr^ is that civic planners, by drasucally result mg urban sprawl, would cause home pncei to shoot up. And indeed, mediin home prices for exisung homes in Was hington and Ore gon, the two states with urban growth re strictions. rose to S153.190 this year — the^ thiid highest am^ng 10 regions of the coun^ iry. -:-2 Mr. Liberty of 1000 Fnends of Oregon said home pnccs rose, in Seattle and Portland, primarily because so many new jobs have been created. More important. Mr. Liberty says Oregon has shown that American cities do not have to follow the predictable pattern from boom to sprawl to abandonment "At least w'e have shown that vou can do someihmg." Mr Liberty said. "There is a tundamenial civic assumption that we can make the city work, and shape it the way we want It to be shaped.
