SPECIAL ASSESSMENT
1929 eagerness Point Road
3960 Sixth Avenue North
The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were
duly noted.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that there were
hazardous building proceedings that involved both of these
properties. The cost to be assessed to 1929 Fagerness Point Road
is $4,800.00. This amount resulted from not only the necessary
legal fees involved, but also the costs for actual removal of the
structure. The $1,500.00 costs for 3960 Sixth Avenue North were
primarily legal fees.
The owners of these properties were not present for this
public hearing.
There were no comments from the public regarding this matter
and the public hearing was closed.
It was moved by Councilmember Callahan, seconded by
Councilmember Nettles to assess the properties at the addresses
mentioned above with special assessments as set forth in
Resolution #2523. Motion, Ayes-4, Nays-0, Motion passed.

PUBLIC COMMENTS
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that Mr. Butch
Loomis had submitted a Petition regarding safety for the 1 1/2
mile section of Highway 12 between the Luce Line and downtown
Long Lake. Mayor Grabek accepted the Petition.
There were no further public comments.
ZONING ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT:
BIG9MAY 12 ZONING AMENDMENT
City Administrator Bernhardson gave a brief introduction of
this matter. When Orono had adopted the Comprehensive Plan
amendment, Mr. Shardlow was hired to develop an ordinance to
implement that plan. The initial proposal was presented to the
Planning Commission in June. The Planning Commission heard the
matter at a special meeting on August 17, 1988, and forwarded it
on to the Council. Mr. Shardlow was going to present a revised
proposal and introduction to the Councilmembers and Mayor Grabek
and hoped to receive some feedback. This matter would be tabled
and action would be taken at either the October 24th or November
14th Council Meeting.
Mr. Shardlow stated that there were three items he would be
addressing. The first was a set of special requirements for
rezoning in the Highway 12 Corridor. These would correspond with
the minimum standards to achieve zoning that are set forth in the
Comprehensive Plan itself. There are some over-riding issues
such as sanitary sewer, the need to correspond to the overall
transporation plan for that area and concerns regarding the
quality of development. The first ordinance provides more
details in accordance with the Plan as follows:
A. Minimum area is the first item addressed in the proposed
ordinance. This sets forth a minimum of 5 acres that would be
required in order to apply for rezoning.
B. Access and circulation plan which requires that no
matter what the size or shape of the area, there must be
information provided that demonstrates that the proposal will tie
into the Corridor and overall traffic objectives.
C. Sanitary sewer availability is a key point and the
applicants would need to demonstrate that they have adequate
capacity availability now or a future plan that is feasible to
the City to serve the subject property.
D. Storm water manaSement addresses the issue of water
quality and requires the applicant to submit detailed site
drainage plans to show that runoff and storm water ponding will
be handled in accordance with the City's standards.
E. Available Zoning Districts that can be applied for are
2
r:INUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
HIGHWAY 12 ZONING AMENDMENT CONTINUED
identified in this section. They are as follows:
HC-Highway Commercial District
PRD-Planned Residential Development
R1A-One Family Residential District
R1B-One Family Residential District
M6-Multiple Family Planned Residential District
Also available within the Corridor will be the new PUD District
which will be a floating district that anyone could apply for
anywhere within the community.
F. Building Design and Construction addresses the building
standards within the Corridor. It requires that all additions to
buildings, outbuildings and accessory structures, retaining
walls, etc., will all be constructed of the same type of high
quality material.
G. Requirement of Development Agreement. This section
states that any application for rezoning will have to be subject
to a development agreement between the City of Orono and the
applicant. The development agreement would address such issues
as sanitary sewer, timing of construction, etc.
The next section Mr. Shardlow outlined was the B-6 Highway
Commercial District. This zoning district was created was
because of the need to tailor a zoning district specifically to
the commercial alternatives adopted by the City for Highway 12.
The Planning Commission reviewed Mr. Shardlow's list of proposed
commercial uses for the Highway 12 Corridor. They indicated that
they would like to limit the permitted uses with the
understanding that if there was an application for a use not
expressly permitted that an application could be submitted under
the Planned Unit Development process (PUD). This would enhance
the City's discretion and review of such proposals.
The permitted uses are as follows:
1. Offices (Business and Professional)
2. Banks and financial institutions
3. Libraries
4. Motels and hotels
5. Class I Restaurants
This section clearly outlines the relationship between the B-6
Highway Commercial District and the PUD District. Subdivision 4
allows for the application of commercial uses that are in keeping
with the Comprehensive Plan, but the City would regulate the
application for those uses through the PUD process.
Councilmember Nettles asked whether the review process for
the PUD would be the same as if an application were submitted for
a use permitted within the district? Mr. Shardlow stated that
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
HIGHWAY 12 ZONING ANENDMENT CONTINUED
there would be an application for a use that was consistent with
the Comprehensive Plan, but a rezoning process would still be
necessary. It would be difficult to deny a use that was allowed
by the Comprehensive Plan. The review process would focus on
aesthetics, the quality of the development, traffic and other
performance standards. If application were made for a use that
was shown as a permitted alternative, it would be a request for a
rezoning for a use that is consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan. Nettles then asked whether the Council could deny such an
application, even though the proposed use was permissable under
the zoning plan for other districts other than the B-6 Zone?
Shardlow replied that if the Council were not comfortable with
allowing certain uses within certain areas, then the
Comprehensive Plan should be changed accordingly. The Planning
Commission had previously indicted that their concern was not use
as much as quality. Shardlow had suggested placing performance
standards within the B-6 District over and above those in the
other zoning districts. In addition, the PUD gives the City the
opportunity to enter into making a design framework manual, and
specific covenants part of the official approval. However, land
use should not be a basis for denial.
City Attorney Barrett stated that should there be any
changes to the ordinance that would now allow any subsequent
zoning to defy the Comprehensive Plan so that it would not
control the zoning under the statutes, that may give the Council
more discretion in the zoning process. However, the list of uses
is very narrow and distinguishing that list from slightly
different uses would not be easy and the idea that there is a
distinction which would require a different level of review would
be difficult. Nettles suggested that since the Highway 12
Corridor is such an important issue, that perhaps some criteria
should be established as to how uses would be diffentiated from
the City of Orono as a whole to the Highway 12 Corr°dor.
The ordinance sets forth the specific performance standards
such as lot area, lot widths, setbacks, etc. Lot area has been a
topic highly discussed. Some of the proposed uses may not
require 2 acres of land. The Planning Commission indicated that
they wanted tc leave the minimum lot area at 2 acres with the
understanding that should there he application for a series of
uses, some of which would sit on smaller lots, they could apply
through the PUD. The PUD would help in providing an overall
consistency for such applications. The PUD would allow for
flexibility in the performance standards as long as the applicant
could show the advantages of such flexibility.
The ordinance also addresses the issue of drainage and
requires that site and drainage plans be submitted with an
application. It places a height limitation of 35' except through
the issuance of a conditional use permit. There would be a
requirement that a minimum of 25% of the lot area and at least 3%
2
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
HIGHKAZ 12 ZONING AMENDMENT CONTINUED
of the land area within a parking area be landscaped. That
section of the ordinance sets forth minimum sizes of landscape
materials at the time of planting. Section I provides direction
with regard to trash and trash handling equipment. Any accessory
structures must be of similar type, quality and appearance as the
principal structure. The ordinance would require that the ground
level view of all mechanical utilities and external loading and
service areas be screened, and that automobile headlights and
other sources be screened whenever it may directed onto adjacent
residential windows.
The final ordinance is the Planned Unit Development (P,
Ordinance. The PUD would be a floating district that would b(:
available for application anywhere throughout Orono. The PU'?
would provide for flexibility in the development standards. The
current process for handling nonconforming applications is
through the granting of a variance, which requires determination
of a hardship. The PUD would encourage innovation of building
designs and would provide some incentives to the developer, who
in turn could offer increased amenities to the community. It
would also allow for negotiations throughout the development
process, and would give the City more stringent or detailed
controls where it may be necessary to do so.
The PUD allows for mixed use development and would allow a
developer to apply for virtually any use. When an application
was received, the zoning district within the current ordinance
that most nearly parallels the use applied for would provide the
basic performance standards. If the application proposed a
variance from those standards, the developer would need to show
why it would be advantageous to the community and the project to
proceed as he requested. The City would then have the oportunity
to weigh the variance of his proposal. There would be a great
deal of flexibility given to the City in terms of required
standards. The PUD would be reviewed and coordinated with the
subdivision regulations.
There are three stages in the PUD process as follows:
1. Sketch Plan Review. Before a great deal of time and
money is spent on behalf of the applicant, there would be an
initial consulation with the City Staff. This meeting would
provide the developer/builder with an idea as to the City's
concerns about development in a particular area. The applicant
would then go before the Planning Commission and Council with a
sketch plan. The Planning Commission and Council would give the
applicant some positive or negative feedback and some direction
as to how development should take place.
2. Concept Approval. It would be at this stage that the
rezoning and planning and development would occur.. Concept
approval corresponds with preliminary plat approval. By the time
5
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
HIGHKA? ] 2 ZONING AMENDKENT CONTINUED
concept :approval is given, the planning and development zoning
would have already been granted. The density would have been
established. once the applicant has achieved concept approval,
they would then obtain their final plat, engineering, architect,
civil Engineering drawings, etc. When the applicant comes back
for final approval of the Planned Unit Development, that would be
the time they would submit their performance bond and detailed
engineering drawings. It would be during this concept stage that
the City's approval or non -approval would be determined.
Mayor Grabek asked how the PUD process varied from the
current process. Zoning Administrator Mabusth explained that the
current process was as specifically detailed in stages. The
current review process does not allow as much flexibility. The
PUD would provide for more staff input, Currently there %re very
limited meetings or exchanges that occur between the a;-- ,)licant
and staff before the matter is heard by the Planning C•:r-raission.
Sharadlow stated that providing concerns, ideas and criticism
will allow the applicant to more efficiently develop a concept
plan. If the applicant prepares a good concept plan, there
should be enough information presented to decide whether to
approve the application at that point.
Mayor Grabek asked if the PUD would replace the PRD? Mr.
Shardlow stated that there was no intent for the PUD to be a
substitute to the PRD. However, the PUD does perform everything
the PRD would, plus some ad3itional functions. Mabusth also
asked for clarification as to whether the Planned Residential
Development would be the same as the PUD, or would the PRD format
be allowed as well? City Administrator Bernhardson stated that
the City would need to decide whether they would repeal the PRD
or not. Grabek asked whether the PRD served the same purpose as
the PUD? Bernhardson replied not necessarily. There is not as
much flexibility or input in a PRD. Shardlow explained that the
PRD allowed for some flexibility in density and prcvides for an
official acceptance or approval of private open space. A PUD
would allow for those functions in addition to others. Mayor
Grabek requested a comparison and suggestions as to whether both
the PRD and PUD would need to exist.
The revision and changing aspect of the PUD process has yet
to be addressed. The Planning Commission is not satisfied with
the current language proposed. There is general acceptance of
the idea that there be room for minor administrative changes
without the need to go back through the entire process. The
current language says that minor changes in the location,
placement and height of structures may be authorized by the
Development Review Committee. The Development Review Committee
will be defined by ordinance as the City Administrator, Zoning
Administrator and/or other persons as depicted by the City
Administrator. Shardlow said if this provision were not
included, the City would be operating in violation of the City's
6
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
HIGHWAY 12 LOANING AlENIDMENT
ordinance. The intent of this provision would be to allow for
changes that would not impact the area or performance standards.
Councilmember Callahan inquired as to whether the PUD would
take the place of the existing zoning districts within the City.
Shardlow clarified that the PUD would be available throughout the
City. Subdivision 2 spells out that any change in use or
rearrangement of lots or building tracts, can only be approved by
a public hearing conducted by the City Council. The purpose of
this is that the final development plans would be recorded and
would become the zoning guideline that would run with the land.
There would be a performance guarantee provided and a performance
bond or letter of credit shall be required of the developer. The
Council may approve the concept plan and attach such conditions
as it deems reasonable. Approval shall require a four -fifths
vote of the entire Council. Callahan stated that in essence this
would be "spot zoning".
Councilmember Nettles asked whether there was minimum
acreage that would be required in order for a PUD to be used.
Councilmember Callahan stated that 5-acre minimum was proposed.
Mayor Grabek asked what would happen to a 5-acre lot. Shardlow
stated that instead of having an application that would subdivide
the parcel one lot at a time, there would be the need to have a
development plan for the entire parcel. Grabek stated that the
current zoning ordinances allow only one structure on a 5-acre
parcel. Shardlow stated that the PUD would allow someone to
apply for a commercial use in x 5-acre residential area. The
Council could approve or not approve the application based upon
its merits. Mayor Grabek asked why that type of flexibility was
advantageous? Shardlow stated that one of the advantages would
be the opportunity to design development in accordance with the
land as opposed to having an arbitrary set of standards to every
piece of property. Mayor Grabek expressed his concern of a
City Council being able to allow commercial development in
residential areas with only a 4/5ths vote. Shardlow stated that
currently that could be done.
Mayor Grabek asked why the 5-acre minimum was necessary?
Shardlow stated that the 5-acres was intended to assure that
there would be enough land to provide for 3n integrated plan. He
added that the PUD would enhance the discretion of the City. It
would allow the City to regulate and discuss aspects of
development which are beyond the basi- requirements of the
typical zoning ordinance. Shardlow st, •d that the City could
draft a design framework manual as a pa;, of the PUD that would
regulate the building materials used within a building
development. Grabek asked to what percentage of available land
in Orono would the PUD apply. Mabusth replied that the
Navarre area and all along Highway 12 would apply. Shardlow
stated that the PUD could be used for redevelopment, not only
initial development of do area.
7
KINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
HIGHWAY 12 ZONING AMENDMENT CONTINUED
Councilmember Goetten asked whether the purpose of the 5-
acre minimum was to specifically prevent development unless 5
acres were available to do so? Shardlow responded that the
purpose of the 5-acre was to achieve a more comprehensive
development of any area as opposed to a bodge-podge of 1-acre
developments. It would defeat the purpose of the PUD if only a
1-acre minimum was required. City Administrator Bernhardson
added that the PUD could apply in any zoning district whether it
be 2-acre, 1/2-acre, etc. It is expected that there would be few
applications within the 2 and 5 acre zones unless the proposal
involved clustering the development as in a PRD applicaticir.. The
5-acre zone has no density significance with regard to the PUD.
The only requirement for the PUD is that there be a minimum 5-
acre assemblage of property. One reason the possibility of a 10-
acre minimum was discussed was because the overall PUD
development would need to have a plan for storm water, sewer,
water, etc. Shardlow interjected that the 5-acre PUD would
require the developer to provide enough information to
demonstrate that those sauce objectives could be accomplished.
Zoning Administrator Mabusth inquired as to whether the PUD would
be a valuable tool for the development of Navarre? Shardlow
answered affirmatively.
Mayor Grabek asked Shardlow for the worst and best scenario
involved in a hypothetical situation involving a PUD application
wherein several 1 or 2 acre residential lot were joined to meet
the 5-acre minimum. Shardlow stated that a bad use of the PUD
would be excessive density on one piece of property where it was
inconsistent with the overall area. Shardlow said that could be
avoided by the Council not approving such a plan. City
Administrator Bernhardson stated that not passing the PUD now
would not disallow a future council body from rezoning an area.
Councilmember Goetten stated that the current ordinances would
not allow such a plan to be approved. Callahan added that
there would be a less likely occurrence of such rezoning of
property if the PUD was not permitted. Shardlow stated that a
good use of the PUD would be in the clustering of a development
on the land where it was best suited. Mayor Grabek asked if such
a plan would constitute a PRD? Shardlow stated that the PUD
could allow some increase in density.
Councilmember Goetten asked if there would still be credits
for wetlands, etc.? Zoning Administrator Mabusth stated that
would apply if the property were sewered. The current PRD
ordinance does not give density credits, only the LR-lC1 district
provides for density credits. The PUL allows for better
development. Goetten stated the PUD would wake it easier to deal
with the wetlands, ponding areas and soil conditions found in
Orono. Mr. Shardlow stated that the PUD proposal came about
because the Planning Commission wanted development controls put
in the B-6 District. Shardlow did not believe that would be
consistent with the limits of the City's authority. The Planning
1.1
MINUTE: OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
HIGHWAY 12 ZONING AMENDMENT
Commission wanted to guarantee quality and consistency. The PUD
would allow that to happen. Mayor Grabek asked why a PRD would
not take care of that? Shardlow stated that a PRD only deals
with the density issue.
Mayor Grabek stated that he understood the need to focus
development in a certain area to benefit not only the lend, but
the surrounding area. However, in his opinion, a PUD would give
the City the ability to control the density. The PRD would allow
the clustering of a development for the purpose of preserving
wetlands or other unique geographical conditions. Councilmember
Callahan stated that the PUD would allow for a gas
station/grocery store on one acre and an apartment complex on
another acre, with a commercial office building. Mayor Grabek
stated that he understood the aspect of density, however, he did
not see where there would be controls or restrictions. Shardlow
stated that the PRD would only apply to residential property. A
PUD would apply to all types of property. The idea of the PUD
was to require an applicant for rezoning along the Highway 12
Corridor to present their design framework Manual so that all
buildings and landscaping would meet certain standards prior to
approval. It would enhance the discretion that the City would
have for prior to approval.
Councilmember Goetten inquired as to whether there would be
any "loopholes" that would enable an undesireable development
within tho Orono Community if the PUD were allowed. Shardlow
stated th«t this ord_ nance would provide the City with a process
that would allow more guarantees and controls before development
begins. M.yor Grabek asked why that could not be done without a
PUD? City Administrator Bernhardson explained that the PRD is
very limited in that it applies mainly to density. Th�-r•e are
PID's, PCD' 3 and other such zoning designations in other C* i ties
that provid detailed controls for development. The PUD cor._nes
the controls of all those zoning districts and eliminate:; the
need to have more than one. The current PRD is rot that
extensive. The PUD also allows for a mixed use development where
residentia' development could be integrated with office buildings
and other corms of commercial development.
Mayor Grabek asked whether the PUD could be designated for
use only within certain areas of Orono, such as Navarre and the
Highway 12 Corridor> Shardlow stated that conceptually he would
see no reason why such limitations could not be established.
Bernhardson suggested that a PUP in the 2 and 5 acre zones not be
allowed to increase the density credit. The other sewered areas
could be considered if allowing an increase in density credit
were desired. The primary purpose of the PUD is not to allow
increased density, but rather to allow better use and control.
Councilmember Nettles inquired as to whether Orono could
legislate the types of uses it would allow or disallow for a PUD.
Councilmember Callahan stated that he favored the idea of
9
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
HIGHWAY 12 ZONING AMENDMENT CONTINUED
flexibility of setting standards for the PUD, but who would set
those standards. Shardlow said that the standards would be set
through the PUD process. The developer would proposes the
Planned Unit Development and specific details would be ironed out
by the review and approval process. Shardlnw continued to
explain that whatever use was applied for, all of the standards
in the zoning district that most closely alines with the use
applied for would be the base standards that would apply. All of
the present zoning standards would still exist, the PUD process
would enhance those standards.
Mayor Grabek stated that he needed more review time to
review all the ramifications of the PUD. He thanked Mr. Shardlow
for his input.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Nettles, to table this matter at least until the October 24, 1988
Meeting. Motion, Ayes=4, Nays=0, Motion passed.

CONDITIONAi OSE PERMIT
RESOLUTION #2509
Mr. Joe Pallansch, a represenative from Washington
Scientific Industries, was present for this matter.
City Administrator Bernhardson briefly outlined this
application as being a request for an on -site storage pond to
accomodate the drainage from the new addition. The storage site
has been approved by the M.C.W.D. There would be the need for
grading the soils along the west side of the property. Some of
this soil was contaminated and has been placed along the side of
the property. Handling of these soils will be covered under a
separate application.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Nettles, to adopt Resolution #2509. Motion, Ayes=4, Nays=0,
Motion passed.

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT - FIRST PHASE
RESOLUTION #2510
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that this
application was for the purpose of dealing with the contaminated
soils that were found on the property. Mayor Grabek asked how
long ago? Bernhardson replied approximately one year ago.
Washington Scientific promptly notified the Minnesota Pollution
Control Agency of the contaminated soils. However, the P.C.A.
did not inform the City of Orono of this problem.
The solution for ridding the area of this contaminated soil
10
MINUTRS OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
ZONING FILE #1340 WASHINGTON SCIENTIFIC INDUSTRIES CONTtNUSD
involves two phases. The first phase would entail the digging of
a 24' deep trench through the contaminated area and underlying it
with tile. It would then be backfilled with appropriate
materials and would then underta%e pumping of that area with
treatment of the waters for contamination. The water would go
into the sanitary sewer.
The second phase would involve treating the contaminated
soil that remains above ground. The process of "airstripping"
would be used which involves treating the soil by thin spreading
it to allow evaporation of the organic solvent.
zoning Administrator Mabusth stated that she had asked the
P.C.A. why they had not apprised the City of Orono of this
matter. Their response was that due to the cooperation and
openess on the part of Washington Scientific, they had not felt
it necessary to follow the forma] permit process. However, they
will keep the City updated from here on out.
Councilmember Goetten stat:3 that she had always felt that
Washington Scientific had been straightforward in dealing with
the City. She wanted assurance that the method of treating the
contaminated soil would not pose any problems. Councilmember
Nettles asked what the chemical was that they discovered in the
soil. Mr. Pallansch stated that it was in the same family as
drycleaning solvent. Nettles asked if it would leave any
residue? Mr. Pallansch responded negatively. Goetten asked
about the size of the area? Mabusth responded that it was
approximately 1/2 to 3/4 of an acre. The trench will be 200'
long 20' wide and 24'deep. Goetten asked whether the City would
oversee the process? Mabusth stated that the City would be
part of the monitoring process. The engineering fir+:.
representing Washington Scientific would be responsible for
keeping the City informed on a regular basis.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Nettles, to adopt Resolution #2510. Motion, Ayes=4, Nays=0,

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
RESOLUTION #2511
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that this item
involved the application for a conditional use permit and
variances for construction of a lift station. The proposed
structure has been revised to have a residential appearance as

City Administrator Bernhardson explained that this
application was for the purpose of dividing off a portion of an
existing lot. The existing lot does currently have two
residential units. One unit will be removed and replaced with
the lift station. There would be an outlot of approximately
3,000 s.f. designated in an area where 21,000 is normally
required. However, the outlot would be for utility purposes
rather than residential purposes.
Mayor Grabek asked if there were any concerned parties.

RESOLUTION #2513
The applicant, Tom Haislet, was present for this matter.
Ms. Lucy Taylor, a member of the School Board, Mr. Bill
Fenholdt, School District Administration, and Mr. Tony Leung,
Attorney for the School District were also present.
City Administrator Bernhardson outlined this matter for the
Councilmembers and Mayor Grabek. Mr. Haislet was representing
the School District in their purchase of property located at the
southeast corner of County Road 6 and Old Crystal Bay Road,
opposite the High School. Because of the School District
requirements pertaining to land acquisitions, they are only
buying the parcel a quarter at a time. This method of
acquisition required a four lot subdivision and because there are
four lots, a road outlot is required and has been designated.
The City of Orono will take underlying road and utility
easements, just as the City would do with any private road. Once
the School District has purchased the property within the 11-year
time period, the City would vacate the easement. This
application is at the premliminary subdivision stage and there
will be an agreement drafted by the City Attorney and Mr. Tony
Leung, the Attorney for the School District.

Zoning Administrator Mabusth reported that the applicant had
reviewed the 8 concerns set forth in her memo that needed to be
included in the agreement. Items 3, 6 and 7 will be futher
defined and worked on by the City Attorney and Mr. Leung with
staff 'a input. With regard to Item #2, Mabusth presented two
possible schemes of development of the eastern parcel. The
problem is the possibility of a developer coming in to the east
who will be expected to address a future road connection to the
proposed road outlot within the current development. The City
will be obligated to inform such a developer of that agreement
with the School Board.
Mr. Leung stated that the reason he had asked Ms. Mabusth to
make that clarification was to verify the fact that the School
District would not be obligated to develop the road. There
cannot be a road running through the School's property for many
reasons, but mainly due to safety.
Mayor Grabek stated that the agreement would protect both
the City and School District.
It was moved by Councilmember Nettles, seconded by
Councilmember Goetten, to adopt Resolution #2513. Councilmember
Callahan inquired about the park and road fees required with all
subdivision applications. Zoning Administrator Mabusth stated
that the Planning Commission had overlooked the fees in their
attempt to resolve all of the aspects of this application.
Mabusth interpreted the Planning Commission's intentions would be
not to charge the School District for those fees. There was no
further discussion. Motion, Ayes=4, Nays=0, Motion passed.

RESOLUTION #241.4
Mr. Clifford Reep, from Minnetonka Portable Dredging was
present on behalf of the applicants.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that the applicants
were seeking a conditional use permit to excavate an existing
wetland to create a wildlife pond. A 1 1 of the dredging or
grading that would be done would be retained on the property.
Even though the wetlands are being enlarged and deepened, there
wi 111 be no increase in the ponding area. Because of the
configuration, it will lessen the storm ponding area by 9%. When
dealing with ponding, it is the outlet that determines the amount
of storage, not the depth of the pond. The ponding area would
still have capacity to handle the 100-year storm.
Mayor Grabek asked whether this would disturb the wetland
area? Bernhardson replied that it would be disturbing the
wetlands, but the applicants have received approval from the

excavated? Zoning Administrator Mabusth responded that the
Gregorys had built one of the two other ponds.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember

as approving the current application to construct 3 new ponds and
relocate a tee box.
There was some confusion on behalf of the applicant with
regard to the after -the -fact approval for the work done in 1985.
Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron explained
that the work 1(-ne back in 1985 had received approval from the
Planning Commission, but had never received formal approval from
the City Council.
Bernhardson resumed his explanation of the current
application. He stated that the proposed locations for the ponds
were not within any wetland area. The reason approval is
required is due to the amount of dirt that is being moved.
Gaff ron added that the main reason the tee box is being relocated
is because of complaints received from an adjacent property
owner.

Bernhardson asked Gaffron to confirm that the problems with this
application were due to Mr. Gumucio's agent. Gaffron affirmed
that observation and added that the problem stemmed from a
misinterpretation of the City's codes.
Councilmember Goetten questioned the hardship that had been
indicated concerning the need for lighting. If indeed that was
the hardship, why then were the lights not being utilized?
Gaffron responded that there were integral lighting fixtures
halfway down each pillar that would be used immediately. The
applicant was asking that opportunity be reserved for the future
to place lights on top of each pillars should it be determined
that more light was necessary. Goetten stated that she was not
against the pillars, but she did not find the hardship to be
worthy.
Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron stated
that the pillars were up and they did not seem to be imposing
upon the surrounding area. The Planning Commission had
recommended approval with a 4 to 1 vote. The one vote against
was due to a believed lack of any true hardship.

REZONING
RESOLUTION i2525
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that this
application involved the rezoning of a 32 acre parcel of land
from the current rural, non-sewered 2 acre lot to a sewered 1
acre lot. Mr. Steve Pf laum and Mr. Robert Kost from BRW, were
present as respresentatives for Mr. Rebers, who was also present.
Mr. Steve Pf laum updated the City Council with respect to
the Rebers application. He informed them that the application
was being presented in two sections, the rezoning and the
subdivision. He reiterated Bernhardson's explanation of the
proposed rezoning. The project hinges upon the approval to
connect with a sewer interceptor. The Planning Commission had a
sketch plan review of both proposals and had recently approved
the rezoning application. There will be a number of conditions
that will be set forth in a developer's agreement. Prior to the
public hearing for the rezoning, Mr. Kost met with Planning
Commission Chairman Kelley and other Planning Commission members
for the purpose of making a list of items to be addressed at the
public hearing concerning the conditional use permit and PRD.
15
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
ZONING FILE #1333 SIDNEY REBERS CONTINUED
Mr. Pflaum explained that the property is approximately 40
acres, only 32 acres will be addressed at this time. The
southerly 7 acres are scheduled for commercial development at a
later time. The 32 acres being reviewed for rezoning are heavily
wooded and have considerable steep slopes. The objective of the
rezoning is to have a sewered subdivision with minimum
destruction of the trees. The PRD concept is to try to preserve
a buffer around the perimeter of the development. The 32 acres
would contain 25 lots and will have single access. The proposal
was for a large cul-de-sac, however, the Planning Commission
preferred that the road be looped for the purposes of emergency
access. There would be no connection to other roads around the
site. The Planning Commission also requested that an outlot be
designated for the ultimate construction of a frontage road to
access the commercial section of the parcel. The proposal was
developed in such a way that it would meet the current zoning
ordinances and the proposed ordiances involved with the Highway
12 Corridor.
Mr. Robert Rost showed the Councilmembers and Mayor Grabek
the topography of tho :,arcel which depicted the unique
characteristics that were f.nsidered when the plan was developed.
The Rebers' parcel is surrounded on the east, west and north side
by rural residential property in the 2-5 acre densities. The
south side of the property is zoned commercial. The lowest point
on the property is 9941. Drainage occurs off of a ridge and some
runs into upper Dickey Lake, the majority of runoff runs through
a swale and ends up at a culvert at the corner of North Brown
Road and Highway 12. The site access will either be at the top
of the hill on North Brown Road or at the bottom.
Mr. Kost briefly addressed the proposed subdivision. The
main objective of the subdivision will be the preservation of as
many trees as possible. There are not many mature maple tree
forests left within the Minneapolis Metropolitan area. The PRD
will allow for the creation of a large open space that will be
deeded to a homeowner's association that will be anywhere from
50' to 100' in width and surrounds the entire site. There will
be heavy restrictions pertaining to tree removal placed on this
section through covenants. The covenants would also prohibit
site grading and building within that protected area. There will
also be preservation measures developed to protect the trees
around each building pad on each lot. Sewering this property
will also alleviate the need to remove trees to install mound
systems. The type of soils on the parcel are not conducive to
septic systems. Calculations were made to compare the amount of
tree removal necessary on a 2-acre lot with septic versus a 1-
acre lot with sewer. With septic systems and 15 2-acre lots,
207,60C s.f. of tree removal would be required. With 25 1-acre,
sewered lots, 175,000 s.f. of tree removal would be necessary.
Mr. Rost showed a sketch plan depicting an image of how the lots
would be developed. Placing the homes on a cul-de-sac will also
16
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL NZETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
ZONING FILE #1333 SIDNEY REBERS CONTINUED
allow for more tree preservation.
Mr. Rost stated that one of the two major points in favor of
the rezoning is the transition that will occur between the
commercial and residential zoning. The 1-acre PRD with the
buffer perimeter will lend itself better to abutting commercial
property than the 2-acre rural residential zoning. The other
point is that this proposal is consistent with the Highway 12
Corridor, which has served as the underlying framework for this
plan.
Councilmember Callahan asked for clarification as to where
the proposed rezoning will occur. Mr. Kost indicated on the
sketch where the dividing line between the commercial zoning and
the proposed 1-acre zoning would occur. Callahan stated that he
was impressed with the proposal asked whether there were any
neighbors present who wished to express their view point. Mr.
Robbin Sentell, 736 Dickey Lake Drive, addressed the Council. He
agreed that the development plan was laid out very well. His
only concern involved a potential connection of the cul-de-sac
with Pine Ridge Lane. Since that was not being proposed, he had
no objections to the proposal. Callahan expressed his opinion of
having the subdivision and rezoning applications heard
simultaneously.
Councilmember Goetten thought that the development was going
to be very attractive and utilized the area quite well. Her
concerns involved traffic, Brown Road and a buffer between this
development and the property owners to the north.
Councilmember Nettles stated that he liked the concept of
transition from Highway 12 to this residential development. He
questioned where the private road would loop should it be
required to do so, or in the alternative, where an emergency
vehicle access would be located? Mr. Kost stated that there
would be two possible locations for the emergency access. One
would be off of Highway 12, the other would be Pine Ridge.
Nettles questioned the need for such an access and asked the City
Attorney about the City's liability requirements. City Attorney
Barrett responded that there has been increased litigation
arising with regard to road designs. The zoning ordinances that
would control this development, discourage cul-de-sacs. However,
a variance woul& a,ot be required if approval of the cul-de-sac
were given. City Administrator Bernhardson added that the issue
of the cul-de-sac is one that will be addressed under the
guidelines of the subdivision.
Councilmember Callahan asked Mr. Pflaum if there was a
significant reason why the rezoning needed approval at this
meeting, as opposed to waiting until the subdivision was
presented for a vote? Mr. Pflaum stated that the subdivision
issues were complicated so if the rezoning portion of the plan
17
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988

could be voted upon and put aside it would help keep the process

Ayes-4, Nays=O, Motion passed.
#1338 DUANE i CONNIE SCRIBILLA
3235 CRYSTAL BAY ROAD
VARIANCES
RESOLUTION #2517
The applicants were present for this matter.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that this
application involved a request to construct a 241x 26' two-story,
two -car garage. This garage would replace a previous garage that
was destroyed in the July 1987 "Super Storm". The main issue
involved with this matter is whether a 33' easement in favor of
the City of Orono exists on the property. Assistant Planning and
Zoning Administrator Gaffron added that the Schibilla's attorney
is working to find out whether the easement is a mistake. The
City Attorney has examined the records for this property and has
determined that the easement could be a mistake. If the
Schibilla's attorney determines that the easement exists, the
Schibi l las would need to go through a Proceeding Subsequent to
remove the easement from title. At that time, the City would
need to determine whether they were interested in maintaining the
easement or if they would prefer to vacate it. The issues
regarding the size of the proposed garage and the hardcover still
need to be addressed. The staf f's recommendations are that any
action to approve this application be conditioned upon deferrir_g
issuance of a building permit until the easement matter is
resolved.
Mr. Schibilla stated that it was highly questio-cable whether
the easement exists. He has seen surveys and legal descriptions
of adjacent property and the easement does not exist on those
properties. Originally, the applicants' property was two
separate parcels. On one description, the easement is indicated,
on the second parcel, there is language that allows for the right
to create in easement. If the City does have an easement, Mr.
Schibilla believed it would only be 33' x 151. The City will
have to decide whether or not they want the easement. He wanted
the Council to decide that issue immediately so he could commence
with the construction of the garage. If there is an easement,
and the City decides it does not want to vacate it, Mr. Schibi 1 la
would not have another location for his garage. All of the
neighboring properties have garages that are located in such a
way that they too would be on the 33' easement.
Mayor Grabek asked about the ramifications allowing Mr.
Schibilla to build if in fact the easement did exist. Gaffron
18
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL iO3BTING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
ZONING FILE #1338 SCHIBILIA CONTINUED
stated that the City Attorney had advised against the City
allowing a structure on a public easement. City Attorney Barrett
added that the City would have to abandon the easement. Grabek
asked about the easement extending on the properties to tre east
of the Schibillas'. Gaffron stated that the existence of the
easement on neighboring properties appeared sporadically. Grabek
asked how that would affect the City. Barrett stated that the
City would need to condemn the prcperty where the easement did
not exist in order to make the easement continuous and
accessible. Mayor Grabek inquired whether it would be in the
City's interest to keep the easement since it is sporadic? Mayor
Grabek asked if the Schibi 1 la's previous garage was located in
the same place? Gaffron answered in the affirmative. Grabek
asked if the proposed garage would be in line with the
neighboring garages? Gaffron replied that it would, and added
that all of the garages are accessed by the gravel road within
the railroad property.
Councilmember Callahan observed that should Crystal Bay
Road be closed and the Railroad not grant an easement to the
property owners, the City may need to retain the 33' public
easement. Councilmember Goetten stated that she had the same
concern. Mr. Schibilla stated that allowing him to build a
garage would not mean that the City was giving up its easement.
City Attorney Barrett said there would be the question of whether
allowing the construction of the garage would mean the City was
abandonning the easement. He suggested that there may be a
document that could be drafted to address that.
Mayor Grabek asked Mr. Schibilla if he intended to build his
garage yet this year? Mr. Schibilla stated that he was ready to
go. Councilmember Goetten reiterated her concern over the lack
of accessibility should Crystal Bay Road be closed.
Councilmember Callahan suggested the possibility of a lease
agreement that would require razing the garage if a determination
were made that the easement did in fact exist. City Attorney
Barrett said that the problem is that allowing the construction
to take place without determining whether the easement exists
would mean the City would have to abandon it rights. Mayor
Grabek inquired as to how the City could enter into a lease if
ownership was not certain. Councilmember Callahan stated that
the lease would be a written indication that if the easement did
exist, the City did not intend to abandon it. The lease would
provide the stipulation that if the easement did exist and the
City decided to put a road through in that area, Mr. Schibilla
would tear down his garage.
City Administrator Bernhardson suggested another
alternative, which would be building the garage just off of the
easement. There is no required setback from the easement.
However, the topography may be a problem and there would be an
increase in hardcover. Mrs. Schibilla added that it would also
19
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBRR 10, 1988
ZONING FILE #1338 SCHIBILLA CONTINUED
requirc removal of trees. Mr. Bill Wolfe, a neighbor of the
Schibillas' further added that the garage world not be in line
with the neighboring garages. The proposed location for the
garage makes the most sense. Mr. John Nelson, the Schibillas'
contractor stated that the pre-existing garage was c!.oser to the
railroad property than the new structure would be.
Mayor Grabek stated that if a lease could be drafted to
address the potential easement situation, he would be in favor of
the application. Councilmember Callahan concurred.
It was moved by Councilmember Callahan, seconded by Mayor
Grabek, to approve the application #1338, and adopt Resolution
#2517, conditioned upon the drafting of an agreement between the
City of Orono and the Schibillas. The agreement shall provide
that if a public easement is found to exist on the Schibilla
property, and if the City of Orono ever decides to construct a
road on that easement, the Schibillas will raze their garage.
Councilmember Goetten asked how this would be handled. City
Attorney Barrett stated that if a Proceeding Subsequent ensued,
the City would need to go into Court and declare its interest.
Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron reminded the
Council and Mayor Grabek that the application involved a two-
story accessory structure. He added that the proposed Resolution
placed conditions on approval that prohibited usinq the other
level for a dwelling and that plumbing could not be installed.
The Planning Commission approved the application, citing
topography as the hardship. There will be hardcover at 39.6% in
the 75' to 2501, which is essentially the same as the previous
garage. Gaffron asked whether the language within the Resolution
needed to be changed to state that there will be an agreement
that could take effect as soon as it is drafted and executed.
Mayor Grabek stated that was correct. Councilmember Goetten
stated that she would like to see no additional hardcover in the
future. Mayor Grabek stated that the City should handle the
drafting of the agreement to assure that it contains the
necessary provisions. Mayor Grabek asked from where the funding
would come: City Administrator Bernhardson stated that the
applicant would have to pay for anything over and above the
initial application fee. Motion, Ayes=4, Nays=O, Motion passed.

neighboring property owner did not pertain to the side yard
setbacks, but rather sight lines. Assistant Planning and Zoning
Administrator Gaffron stated that the neighbor to the east had
asked that house be moved northward approximately 10 to 151. He
felt that he could work with the applicant on this issue as
opposed to requiring specific language within the Resolution.
Councilmember Callahan. asked Mr. Ziesmer a'jout the concerns

Councilmember Goetten inquired about the septic system.
Gaffron stated that Mr. Ziesmer had the required testing done for
the purpose of placing a septic system on the property. However,

CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT:
RECYCLING PROPOSALS
City Administrator Bernhardson reported that the City of
Orono has been participating in the West Hennepin Recycling which
has provided drop-off sites for several communities in this area.
There is a proposal to undertake curb -side pick up. The
question, however, is the costs involved with curb -side pick up.
The City has contacted two firms, Super Cycle of Minneapolis and
Polka Dot Recycling of Buffalo. At this time, Super Cycle would
be the most economical.
One of the two areas that need to be addressed is the
acquisition of containers. Most of the communities that have
curb -side recycling have funded the acquisition of the containers
which are approximately $7.00 each. Public Works Director
Gerhardson stated that the containers are large enough where the
City would only need one. Hennepin County would reimburse Orono
$2.00 for each container. If one container were purchased, the
overall cost would be approximately $13,000.00 per year; two
containers would be $26,000.00.
The other aspect to be reviewed would be the operation
22
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
RECYCLING PROPOSALS CONTINUED
itself. If the City were to contract with Super Cycle, the
initial cost for one year would be $26,000.00. However, Hennepin
County would reimburse 508-80%, which would mean a net operating
expense between $6,000.00 and $13,000.00 to the City of Orono on
an ongoing basis.
This matter was being presented as information for future
consideration. The costs mentioned above have not been included
in the 1989 Budget.
Councilmember Goetten stated that she have received a phone
call from Mary Frank who was very conerned about a community
recycling program. Goetten added that she too had been an
advocate for recycling. She believed that the City needed to
take a leadership role in establishing a recycling program.
Ms. Beth Peterson, 2625 Fox Street, stated that she was very
concerned about recycling and had attended the meeting purely for
the purpose of hearing what the Council intended to do.
City Administrator Bernhardson stated that originally it was
thought that drop-off recycling would be the only feasible
method, because the cost, especially in rural areas of curb -side
could be very expensive. He was surprised to find out how
economical curb -side pick up cold be. The Communities of Mound,
Maple Plain and Minnetonka Beach have undertaken curb -side
recyling. Public WorNn Director Gerhardson stated that they were
also looking into the possibility of having pick-up in the
location where the garbage would be picked up. If Super Cycle
were used, the cost would be the same for such pick-up as opposed
to curb -side pick up. City Administrator Bernhardson stated that
if at a later date, there was a cost differential, it would be
very difficult to go back to just curb -side pick up. Public
Works Director Gerhardson stated that Super Cycle would only pick
up aluminum, glass and newspaper. Bernhardson inquired as to
whether West Hennepin would still be maintaining the drop-off
sites? Gerhardson replied that the City could enter into an
agreement for drop-off sites with whomever was performing the
curb -side pick up.
Ms. Peterson asked whether there had been any effort made to
get commercial properties involved with recycling? Gerhardson
stated that the commercial aspect of recycling was just getting
underway. Bernhardson added that at one time the City could
include the corrugated paper, etc. from various commercial
entities in its overall tonnage. However, the County wants the
commercial recycling segregated from the residential. Gerhardson
Stated that was a reason why the required percentage for
recycling in 1989 dropped from 13% to 10%. However, by 1990, the
County wants an overall 16% residential recycling achievement.
Councilmember Goetten asked whether Orono was recycling 10% of
their overall garbage? Gerhardson stated that it was difficult

RECYCLING PROPOSALS CONTINUED
to determine how Orono was performing, but overall, the
communities are doing very well, with each community avera',;ng
only 1% or 2% short of the expectation.
It was moved by Councilmember Goetten, seconded by
Councilmember Nettles, to table this item until October 24, '188
Council Meeting. Motion, Ayes=4, Nays=O, Motion passed.
BUDGRT ADOPTION/1989 TAR LEVY
City Administrator Bernhardson stated th�.t this item was for
the purpose of adopting the General Fund Budget for 1989 and
establishing a tax levy for 1989. Information was presented to
the Council and Mayor Grabek concerning the costs involved with
legal prosecution costs and citation and fine revenues. Based on
6-month data for 1988, the principal costs are being driven by
the number of citations from 1985 to 1988 that have been
processed for Orono have doubled and so have the fines and
forfeitures. However, our legal costs have more than doubled.
This was due in part to the hourly rates being billed by Popham,
Haik were lower than the hourly rates for which the City was
currently being billed. Had we been billed at the current level
we were being charged, back in 1986, our legal costs would have
been 34% higher. The ratio of nrosecutioa rates to fines in 1986
would have been the same as those projected in 1988. the
principle reasor, both fine revenues and prosecution costs are up
is due to the Police Officers issuing substantially more
citations.
Councilmember Goetten asked for this to be tabled so she
would have further review time.
City Administrator Bernhardson mentioned that the two items
could be separated and voted upon separately. He added that
there were two changes to be made in the proposed 1989 Budget.
One item was the possibility of $100,000.00 being included in the
budget from the General Fund in order to allow for more
flexibility; and the conversion of the recorder position from a
part-time to a full-time position.
Councilmember Goetten inquired whether recycling costs would
need to be addressed for the proposed Budget. Bernhardson stated
that would be a reason to table the budget portion of this item.
Councilmember Callahan inquired as to why the tax levy would not
be affected by the Budget? Bernhardson stated that the
recommendation was to levy the maximum allowed in order to retain
flexibility. If the City chooses not to spend that, it could to
adjusted in future years.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Callahan, to table the 1989 Budget, but adopt the tax levy of
$1,352,690 together with $30,000.00 for the deficit for the
Crystal Bay Sewer. Motion, Ayes=4, Nays=O, Motion passed.

MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
CITY FACILITIES - SITE CRITERIA
Councilmember Callahan surmised that the information with
which he was presented was the criteria that may be applied for
selecting a site. City Au,ainistrator Bernhardson agreed and
added that in taking any proposed site, the criteria with which
the council was asked to weigh, would be used to determine
whether the proposed site would be adequate. Callahan asked how
the process would work once they received the feedback from the
Council. Bernhardson stated that the site planners presented the
City with a list of criteria that were usually considered when
choosing a new building site. The City staff and Planning
Commission evaluated the list and made deletions and additions to
that list. This information was now being presented to the
Council and Mayor Grabek for their consideration, deletions and
additions as to what they would like taken into consideration
when determining a site for a new facility.
Councilmember Callahan asked whether there were actual,
physical sites that were being considered? Bernhardson responded
that the sites being considered were the Crystal Bay area or the
location by the sewer plant. Callahan suggested having the site
planners choose a site they feel is best and then approach the
Council for feedback. Councilmember Goetten stated that it was
her understanding that the site planners were to meet with each
Councilmember individually. Bernhardson stated that the time
element began to be a problem and that presenting the criteria
list was a part of that process. Goetten stated that she agreed
with Callahan, in that she would not know which of the proposed
sites was best unless she weighed the pros and cons of each site.
Bernhardson stated that the site planners were attempting to
gather criteria to weigh the sites.
Councilmember Nettles said that one of the Orono Police
Officers had approached him and suggested that the Police
Department be more centrally located because of the long response
time to get to Shoreline Drive. He did not know if that was
already addressed within the criteria, but if not, he would add
police response time under "Functional Relationship to other
Services and Uses" Goetten observed that perhaps that was why
the present City Hall location and the Old Crystal Bay Road were
favored more than the Highway 12 area. Mayor Grabek interjected
that the police were not always responding to a call from the
Police Station, response time would be from a street location.
Bernhardson stated that issue would be critical if it were going
to apply to the fire station.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Nettles, to adopt the site criteria for the site analysis of City
Facilities and the Council directs staff to explore substituting
the site at the southwest corner of Old Crystal Bay Road and
Highway 12 for the site on Brown Road. Councilmember Callahan
asked whether this proposal included removing this site from
consideration and adding the site on Highway 12? Bernhardson
25
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
CITY FACILITIES -SITE CRITERIA CONTINUED
clarified that it was up to the Council. Mayor Grabek stated
that he wanted to see how all three sites faired. Bernhardson
stated that there were additional costs involved with each site
evaluated. Callahan stated that he seriously objected to the
removal of the Brown Road site from consideration. Goetten and
Nettles concurred. Mayor Grabek amended his motion to exploring
the three possible sites, Councilmember Nettles seconded.
Motion, Ayes=4, Motion passed.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Nettles, to adopt the site criteria for the site analysis of City
Facilities. Motion, Ayes=3, Callahan, Nay. Motion passed.
AMEND COUNCIL SALRIBS
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Nettles, to have the Council and Mayor salaries remain the same.
Councilmember Goetten inquired as to whether these salaries had
been raised in the past? City Administrator Bernhardson replied
that that they had been raised 2 years ago. There was no further
discussion. Motion, Ayes=4, Nays=O, Motion passed.
BIGHKAY 12 TASK FORCE
City Administrator Bernhardson reported that the direction
of the Task Force, subsequent to a meeting in Delano, is now to
request MNDOT to spend engineering time to develop a maximum
highway within the existing right-of-way and to request that
MNDOT determine a layout along the existing alignment. This
would provide people with information as to what each of those
option would entail. It would not indicate support for either of
those options, but would be for information only.
Councilmember Callahan agreed that the more information
available, the better. Councilmember Goetten added that Highway
12 was of great concern to the citizens of Orono.
It was moved by Councilmember Callahan, seconded by Mayor
Grabek, to indicate its supr- I for the request since the request
would not in any way binO 'ity to support of any particular
option, but only to gain )rmation as to options that may be
realistic. In addition requesting MNDOT to do work to
determine the maximum within the current corridor and impact of a
four lane on the current alignment, the City desires as
appropriate that MNDOT begin work to develop alternative
corridors for Highway 12. Motion, Ayes=4, Nays=O, Motion passed.
LOCAL PROPERTY TAX SYSTEM
City Bernhardson explained that there had been a request
from the Association of Metropolitan Municipalities to obtain
financial support from Orono to contribute toward the development
of data and proposals for the 1989 Legislature to try to make the
current property tax system more rational. Most of the larger
communities have committed to contribute approximately $2,000.00,
26
MINUTES OF THE ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OF OCTOBER 10, 1988
LOCAL PROPERTY TAX SYSTEM CONTINUED
the smaller communities, $500.00. Bernhardson recommended that
the City contribute up to $500.00. There was also a proposed
Resolution from the City of Brooklyn Park encouraging the
Legislature to undertake a reform of the property tax and State
aid system. If it was the Counci l's desire to do so, a similar
resolution could be sent from Orcno to the Legislature.
Mayor Grabek stated that making sense of the tax system
would be money well spent. He also would not object to sending a
resolution to the Legislature. Councilmember Goetten concurred,
especially if the efforts proved to be beneficial to Orono.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Nettles, to contribute up to $500.00 for the funding of a
Property Tax Data System development together with the adoption
of Resolution #2535 urging the legislature to take a
comprehensive review of the property tax system in the State of
Minnesota. Ayes=4, Nays=O, Motion passed.
ANIMAL PERMIT ORDINANCE
City Administrator reviewed this item. The question is
whether to delete the ordinance or implement a system to monitor
and regulate the ordinance. The zoning ordinances regulate the
ownership of animals other than dogs or cats, but does not offer
much control.
Mayor Grabek stated that he could go either way.
Councilmember Goetten stated that she did not want to see Orono
get so restrictive that it would discourage people from having
animals other than dogs or cats. She inquired as to whether
there had been past problems in this regard. Bernhardson replied
that there had been few complaints.
It was moved by Councilmember Goetten, seconded by
Councilmember Nettles, to delete the Animal Ordinance No. 9.13,
subd. 7, entitled "Animals and Fowl - Keeping, Transporting,
Treatment, Housing". Motion, Ayes=4, Nays=O, Motion passed.
RULES FOR DEPOSITORY
Mayor Grabek questioned whether the Investment Policy Draft
had been sent to the City Auditors for their review. City
Administrator Bernhardson stated that had not been.
Councilmember Callahan suggested having the Auditor's comments
by the October 24, 1988 Council Meeting. Mayor Grabek stated
that he would like to see a lettr_ from the Auditor indicating
his approval for this proposal.
It was moved by Councilmember Callahan, seconded by Mayor
Grabek, to table this itme until the October 24, 1988 Council

LAKE MINNETONKA CONSERVATION DISTRICT REPORT
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that Mr. Strommen
had summarized the new DNR Shoreline Regulations that are being
proposed and reviewed those regulati.-;ns with himself and Zoning
Administrator Mabusth at a recent meeting. There are certain
areas of concern that are being monitored by the City.
Mr. Gene Strommen, Executive Director of the LMCD, addressed
several issues of major concern for comprehensive preservation of
Lake Minnetonka.
Eurasian Water Milfoil was the first topic he addressed. He
said that it was just discovered in Lake Minnetonka this summer.
Lake Minnetonka is one of the few lakes in Minnesota that has
Eurasian Water Milfoil. Testing was done and it was determined
that 17 of 19 bays had the Milfoil. Since that time, the LMCD,
DNR and Corp of Engineers had tried mapping the Lake for actual
weedbed locations. It was Mr. Strommen's belief that the Milfoil
had been introduced into the Lake at least 2 years ago.
The Milfoil is a problem in that it is very prolific and can
reproduce through weed cuttings. This means that running boats
and swimming in areas where the Milfoil is present would cause a
great deal of new growth to occur. The LMCD is attempting to put
together a brochure that gives information about the weed and
what can be done to combat it. It would be very difficult to
comprehensively remove the weed from the Lake. Therefore it will
be necessary to keep it from spreading any further by avoiding
1
MINUTES OF REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 24,1988
LMCD REPORT CONTINUED
areas where it is growing and/or chemically treating specific
areas. It can exist for 12 to 15 years before it uses up the
nutrients in the ground and dies. In cases where the ground
nutrients are significant, it n►ay not die at all. In order to
keep the weed from being spread to other Minnesota Lakes, a sign
campaign is being used.
The next issue Mr. Strommen addressed was water conservation.
He said that the current level of Lake Minnetonka has not been
seen since the 1930's. There has been no let out of water
through the dam since 1986. The Minnehaha Creek Watershed
District has strict guidelines that must be followed in order to
let water out of the dam. The LMCD published information asking
persons not to use the lake for sprinkling purposes. The LMCD
investigated the possibility of pumping water into the lake, but
found that it would not be feasible to do so. He informed the
Mayor and Counci 1 that only was the lake leve 1 very low, but the
wetlands were very dry as well. It would take significant snow
and/or rain to bring recharge the wetlands.
With respect to the LMCD Comprehensive Plan, Mr. Strommen
stated that it had been in place now for approximately 7 months.
Mr. Dave Arndorfer, a specialist in the area of recreational
studies, has been with the LMCD since April and had been working
with the LMCD to put the plan together. The Metropolitan Council
had asked that the Plan be put together in a two year time
period, as opposed to three as initially proposed. Mr. Strommen
said that there are 12 areas the Comprehensive Plan addresses:
Lake Use, Lake Access, Winter Usage, Shoreline Protection,
Shoreline Aesthetics, Upland Environmental Protection, Fisheries,
Wetlands, water Quality, Intergovernmental Relations,
Institutional Arrangements (future structure of the LMCD), and
Funding Alternatives. Subcomittees are being formed to deal with
each of these areas.
Mr. Strommen reminded the Council and the Public that the
LMCD meets every fourth Wednesday of the month at the Tonka Bay
City Hall. He extended an invitation for any persons interested
to attend. Mayor Grabek thanked Mr. Strommen for taking time to
make a presentation.

AFTER -THE -FACT CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT/VARIANCE
ABSOLUTION #2534
Mr. and Mrs. Nelson were present for this matter.
It was explained by City Administrator Bernhardson that this
application involved a conditional use permit and variance for a
pond that had been constructed within the 0-75' zone of the
Nelson property. The pond has been underlain with plastic, and
the swale and landscaping that was done around the pond are
underlain with fabric. The purpose of the pond is to resolve an
ongoing drainage problem. The Planning Commission had
recommended that the plastic under the pond and the crushed
rock/wood chips with underlying fabric remain. The fabric under
the landscaping in the lakeshore yard should be removed.
Mr. and Mrs. Nelson had no questions concerning this
application and stated that they were in full agreement with the
recommendations and conditions of the Planning Commission.
It was moved by Councilmember Nettles, seconded by
Councilmember Callahan, to adopt Resolution #2534. Motion,

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
RESOLUTION #2526
City Administrator Bernhardson informed the Mayor and
Councilmembers that Mr. Eisinger was seeking a renewal of a
conditional use permit to place 100,000 cubic yards of fill on
his property. This had been reviewed twice by the Planning
Commission. It was their recommendation that three issues be
considered with the approval of this application. The first
involves the amount of time the fill will be allowed to remain in
a disturbed state; the second involves time limitations
pertaining to the actual hauling of the fill; and the third issue
involves working with the Orono Police Department on safety and
traffic precautions.
MINUTES OF REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 24,1988
ZONING FILE #1310-EISINGER CONTINUED
Councilmember Goetten asked if a time limit would be
specified as to how long the project can take to complete.
Zoning Administrator Mabusth replied that a time limit will not
be placed on this project because the availability of the fill
will vary. Goetten asked whether the City Staff would be
monitoring the project from beginning to end. Mabusth assured
her that they would. The City Engineer had set out recommended
times for seeding the fi11 and the City would be contacting Mr.
Eisinger at those times. This would prevent the fill from
staying in a disturbed state for an undetermined amount of time.
Councilmember Goetten asked Mr. Eisinger when he anticipated
beginning the project. Mr. Eisinger said that he could not
determine that at this point.
It was moved by Councilmember Goetten, seconded by
Councilmember Nettles, to adopt Resolution #2526. Motion,
Ayes=5, Nays=O, Motion passed.
#1311 JOHN i SUSAN PURDY
1975 FAGERNESS POINT ROAD
VARIANCES
RESOLUTION #2527
Mr. and Mrs. Purdy were present for this matter.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that the Purdys
were requesting variances to put an addition on their home.
They had been before the Planning Commission and City Council
back in 1985 with an application and more recently were asking
approval for a revision to their 1985 plan. The revision
included a 3-season porch that encroached into the 0-75' zone and
the application was denied. The Purdys have since revised that
plan and were now proposing to add on to the south side of the
house. This addition would encroach no closer to the lakeshore
than the existing house. The hardcover percentages for the 0-75'
and 75-250' zones are in 1?ne with the application that was
approved back in 1985. The only issue that had not been
addressed was a potential garage addition which was included in
the 1985 plan. The Planning Commission has recommended approval
of this application.
Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron
clarified that the hardcover calculations did include the
addition of the garage. However, a side setback variance would
be required if the Purdys decided to add the garage.
Councilmember Goetten asked the Purdys if they had any
immediate plans to build a garage. Mr. Purdy indicated that they
had no such plans within the next year.
It was moved by Councilmember Goetten, seconded by
Councilmember Peterson, to adopt Resolution #2527, approving the

requested variances. Motion, Ayes=5, Nays=O, Motion passed.
#1323 JON PAPAS
3369 CRYSTAL BAY ROAD
AFTER -THE -PACT VARIANCE
Mr. Jon Papas was present for this matter.
City Administrator Bernhardson outlined the details of this
application. Mr. Papas was seeking an average lakeshore setback
variance, as well as variances for hardcover and lake setback.
The Planning Commission recommended denial based on a lack of
hardship. Construction alternatives such as removing the railing
or relocating the deck to the side of the house were discussed.
It was determined, however, that those alternatives were not
possible.
Mr. Papas reiterated the fact that relocating the deck would
not be possible. He said that he had not been aware of the need
for a building permit. Mr. Papas did not understand the hardship
aspect of his request. He said that his house was small and the
deck would give added roue and the opportunity to enjoy the lake.
He added that he would be willing to make any revisions possible
or compromise suggested.
Councilmember Goetten asked Mr. Papas if there was a
previous structure in place of the deck? Mr. Papas replied that
there were pre -formed steps to the front door. Councilmember
Nettles asked what kind of compromise Mr. Papas had in mind. Mr.
Papas said that he would have no problem making the deck smaller
or putting up a handrail.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Goetten, to deny this application, but allow Mr. Papas to
construct steps to enter his house. Motion, Ayes=5, Nays=O,
Motion passed.
#1328 HOWARD JOHNSON
1635/1675 CONCORDIA STREET
SUBDIVISION
City Administrator Bernhardson provided a brief review of
this application. Mr. Johnson was seeking a lot line
rearrangement to conform with the property boundary agreed to
many years ago by both affected property owners. The sale of Mr.
Johnson's property is pending the resolve of this application.
Mr. Johnson had agreed to provide the Trainors with 5' of his
property to resolve this matter. The Planning Commission
recommended that the new lot line be 10' from the Trainor
property so as to conform with the required 10' setback of the
LR-lC Zoning District.
Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron informed
the Council and Mayor Grabek that Mr. Johnson was not present,
5
MINUTES OF REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 24,1988
ZONING FILE i1328-JOBNSON CONTINUED
but Mr. Eiss, the buyer of Mr. Johnson's property was. Mr. Eiss
stated that the encroachment problem had existed for o•-er 30
years and that the 10' requirement was unreasonable. He believed
the original proposal of 5' went a long way toward correcting the
problem. Mrs. Trainor was also present, and indicated that it
made no difference whet' -her 5' or 10' was approved.
Mayor Grabek asked if there would be a problem if they
approved 5' rather than 101. Gaffron replied that the Planning
Commission had recommended 10' because that was the standard for
the Lr-lC Distri�.t. Councilmember Goetten commented that she
understood the concern for conforming to the setback standards,
but felt it was unfair to take 1C' from Mr. Johnson's property
when he was not responsible for the encroachment.
It was noted by i;aifron that Mr. Johnson had attempted to
alleviate this problem years ago, but found that the papers had
never been recorder. Gaff ron stated that Mr. Johnson and Mrs.
Trainor were surprised to find that their legal descriptions did
not raflect a 5' rearrangement of the lot line.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Goetten, to approve the lot line rearrangement at 5' as opposed
to 101. Motion, Ayes=5, Nays=O.
#1330 FULLERTON PROPERTIES, INC.
880 TOWNLINE ROAD
PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION
RESOLUTION 2528
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that the applicant
was seeking approval of a 7-lot subdivision. All of the lots
would meet the required 2-acre contiguous dry buildable land.
However, due to the configuration of the property and the cul-de-
sac, three of the lots do not meet the width requirement at the
setback line. The cul-de-sac will be 1,000 feet in length.
Councilmember Goetten asked why the Minnehaha Creek
Watershed District needed to approve the proposal since an outlot
for the road was designated. Mr. Tom Haislet was present and
commented that the Watershed District needed to service a weir on
the property and needed access to do so through an easment along
the north property line.
It was moved by Councilmember Goetten, seconded by
Councilmember Peterson, to adopt Resolution #2528. Motion,

#1335 WOODHILL COUNTRY CLUB
200 WOODBILL ROAD
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT
RESOLUTION #2529
Mr. John Winston was present as a representative of Woodhill
Country Club.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that this was an
application for a maintenance shed that will require a
conditional use permit and a variance for an accessory structure
in excess of 1,000 s.f. The setbacks and height requirement
necessary for a conditional use permit will be met. The
structure will require a 9,800 s.f. area variance. The Planning
Commission has recommended approval of this application. There
were concerns previously expressed by Mr. Fox and the Peseks.
Mr. Winston showed the Council and Mayor Grabek a drawing
depicting the proposed maintenance shed. He said the on-ly
remaining concern was that of the Peseks. They were concerned
about the shed interfering with their view. Councilmember
Goetten asked where the storage shed would be located in respect
to the Pesek home. Mr. Winston showed those locations to the
Council.
Mr. Fox indicated that noise was a problem more than sight.
He was hopeful that there could be a berm, using the dirt removed
from the site. He did not know if that was a feasible solution
to the problem. Mr. Winston added that the berm had not been
investigated, but a separate conditional use permit would be
required if they were to put in a berm. Mr. Fox went on to say
that the Country Club had been very accomodating in trying to
take his concerns into consideration. However, he wanted his
concern about noise to be on record with the City in the event
any problems arise in the future.
Mayor Grabek inquired as to whether the Resolution could be
amended to include language that would address Mr. Fox's concerns
about noise? Zoning Administrator Mabusth advised that the code
does provide for the reopening of conditional use permits when
affected neighbors petition the City and that the resolution
could be amended to specifically address the noise factor. Mr.
Winston reminded the Mayor and Council that the Country Club
currently has a maintenance shed that is not far from the
proposed location of the new facility. Mr. Thomas Markle, Vice -
President of Woodhill Country Club, explained that the portion of
the maintenance shed from where the most noise would be generated
was placed the farthest from the neighboring properties. The end
of the shed that would be near Woodhill Avenue, would only be
used for dead storage. Mabusth interjected that the shed would
be positioned in the hillside, providing more of a barrier to
adjacent residences to the south and west.
Councilmember Nettles questioned whether it would be more

ZONING FILE #1.335-WOODHILL COUNTRY CLUB CONTINUED
beneficial to have both conditional use permits tied together.
Mabusth said that the Council may require the applicant to apply
for a conditional use permit for the land alteration as a
condition of approval.
Mr. Pesek was present and asked for clarification as to the
location of the shed. Mabusth explained to him where the revised
location of the shed would be and that only a corner of it would
be visible from his house. Mr. Pesek stated that he appreciated
what had been done on the part of Woodhill to address his
concern.
City Administrator Bernhardson suggested that the noise
issue be addressed as a condition in the Resolution.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Nettles, to amend Resolution #2529 to include language pertaining
to the noise impact on neighbor 3 properties. Motion, Ayes=5,
Nays-0, Motion passed.
#1339 DRVID LEE
2695 CASCO POINT ROAD
AFTER -THE -PACT CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT/VARIANCE
Mr. David Lee was present for this matter.
City Administrator Bernhardson provided the Council and
Mayor Grabek with a brief summary of the history of this
application. Mr. Lee constructed a retaining wall within the 0-
75' zone. The Planning Commission had recommended approval of
this application per the plans set forth by Mr. Lee's landscape
architect. His proposal would leave the retaining walls exposed
until vegetation would grow and act as a natural cover. City
staff is recommending that fill at a 2-1/2 to 1 grade slope be
placed and that certain timbers be removed, so that the dirt
would appear more as an embankment with cribbing walls into the
soil.
Zoning Administrator Mabusth added that there would be
exposed timbers that would still be visible from the Lake.
Bernhardson also mentioned the fact that citations were
issued to Mr. Lee.
Mayor Grabek asked Mr. Lee why he continued to work on the
wall after the citation was issued. Mr. Lee explained that he
had called and asked permission to finish the steps after he had
received the stop work order. Mabusth clarified that after the
citation was issued there was no additional work done.
Councilmember Callahan compared this application to another
past application. He asked whether City staff was suggesting
that the second option of the City Engineer be followed. Mabusth
8
MINUTES OF REGULAR ORONO COUNC'CL MEETING OCTOBER 24,1988
ZONING FILE i1339-LEE CONTINUED
said that Staff's position was based upon previous conditions of
approvalmade in the past by the Council.
Mr. Lee said that Mr. Robin was scheduled to arrive shortly.
He explained that he had tried on his own to stabilize the bank
after it had washed away. Callahan commented that he had heard
Mr. Robin's presentation at the Planning Commission meeting. He
suggested that the Council try to be consistent in the policies
they set forth in these cases. He was not certain whether the 8'
steps should be allowed to remain, simply teca+ise they are
already there. Mr. Lee stated that the steps stabilize the
entire bank. Mabusth concurred that the steps, at this point,
were providing stabilization for the bank. Callahan and Goetten
believed that the option for restoration of the bank that was
most in line with the City's policies should be chosen.
Councilmember Goetten expressed the difficulty in dealing
with after -the -fact rea_uests, especially in this type of
application where tearing down the retaining wall would worsen
the condition of the bank. She added that she did not like the
8' steps, but if that was the only way to stabilize the banks,
she would have to accept that. Mabusth stated that planters were
proposed to be placed within the 8' steps.
Mabusth asked Mr.
Lee if he
fully understood
what the City
staff was proposing.
Mr. Lee
answered in the
affirmative.
Mabusth explained that
timbers
would be removed
and the lower
wall would be exposed.
instead
of having the upper two tiers of
retaining wall, there would be an earthen slope and
plantings.
COLnci lmer-. -r Callahan observed that there was a
concentration o L.er-the-fact variances that occured on Casco
Point, Baldur F Road and Fagerness Point Road. He said that
should Mr. Lee's variance request be approved, it would be likely
the Council would see yet another such incident. Mayor Grabek
expressed his desire to see Mr. Lee's bank restored to its
original condition. Mr. Lee interjected that the stone wall that
previously existed was "gross" in appearance. He added that
neighbors who had witnessed his construction of the new retaining
walls were very supportive. City Administrator Bernhardson asked
whether the walls could be extended and covered over, as opposed
to putting in the 4' planters? Mabusth replied that she would
need to get input from the City Engineer in that regard.
Mr. Lee explained that he had designed and built the wall
himself. He was unaware of the fact that a retaining wall
required a building permit. He informed tt;e Council that
eventually the wall would fade to a gray col.,_ and would not be
quite so noticable. He said that due to the support system of
the wall, he could not remove any timbers. Councilmember Nettles
Asked why the 8' steps could not be narrowed to 4'? Mr. Lee
explained that the 8' steps were stabilizers. City Administrator
MINUTES OF REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 24,1988
ZONING FILE #1339-LSE CONTINUED
Bernhardson stated that removal of the steps would not be
necessary. The issue is how the 4' is used, whether planters are
installed or the timbers would be extended and covered over.
Callahan concurred that some of the underlying structure should
remain, but believed that the bank should be restored to its
original state as much as possible.
It was moved by Councilmember Callahan, seconded by
Councilmember Peterson, to approve this application provided that
the City Engineer's "option 2" be followed. Mayor Grabek
reiterated his belief that the bank should be restored to its
original state. He added that there had to be some safeguard
instilled so that persons would stop constructing whatever they
please within the 0-75' zone. Councilmember Goetten suggested
that the City may need to improve its efforts of informing
residents of Orono what is required. Motion, Ayes=4, Mayor
Grabek, Nay, Motion passed.

VARIANCE
RESOLUTION
Mr. Hagberg was
present for -iis matter.
City Administrator Bernhardson explained tha' Mr. Hagberg
was seeking approval to construct a detached storat- garage on
his property. The proposed structure would increase hardcover in
the 75-250' and 250-500' zones to 35.6% and 33.2% respectively.
However, there is a gravel road used for City access to sewer
lines that was included in the hardcover calculations for both
the 0-75' and 75-250' zones. Due to this unusual circumstance,
and the fact that exclusion of this road would decrease hardcover
percentages, the Planning Commission recommended approval of this
application with no hardcover removal.
Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron
10
MINUTES OF RBGULRR OROBO COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 24,1988
ZONING FILE 01346-BAGBERG CONTINUED
explained that since the Planning Commission's review, staff
discovered that an additional sewer line existed along the north
line of the property. Mr. Hagberg believed that he had signed
something back in the early 1970's pertaining to the road.
However, nothing has ev: recorded on Mr. Hagberg's chain of
title. Mr. Hagberg's prc garage would be 5' from the sewer
line, where normally 10' : squ- 4d. Even though the easement
is not of record, the City would still like to maintain 10' on
either side of the sewer line so that repairs to the line could
occur without disturbing Mr. Hagberg's garage.
City Administrator Bernhardson asked Public Works Director
Gerhardson as to the depth of the sewer line. Gerhardson replied
that he had not checked the "as builts" but he recollected the
line to be very shallow. He believed that he could get by with a
total of 15', 5' and 101. Mr. Hagberg presented pictures showing
his lot and indicated where he wanted to place his storage
garage. Mayor Grabek suggested allowing Mr. Hagberg to build his
garage where he originally proposed, with only a 5' setback to
the sewer line.
Councilmember Callahan asked why Mr. Hagberg needed the
extra storage facility. Mr. Hagberg stated that he required the
extra storage space. Mayor Grabek concurred with Callahan's
question and asked what was the hardship for placing another
garage on a 3/4 acre lot? Gaffron stated that the Planning
Commission did not address that point. Mr. Hagberg explained
that he had four lawnmowers that needed to be stored. He had
torn down an old shed that was used for that purpose.
Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron
suggested the possibility of removing hardcover to compensate for
the additional storage garage. He asked Mr. Hagberg if he would
be willing to remove the plastic underlying his landscaping. Mr.
Hagberg answered affirmatively.
Mayor Grabek suggested that the application be referred back
to the Planning Commission for further review. Callahan
concurred.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Nettles, to refer this matter back to the Planning Commission to
answer the question of hardship for such a large facility, and
investigate other alternatives. Motion, Ayes=5, Nays=O, Motion
passed.
MAYOR'S REPORT:
Mayor Grabek had no report for this meeting.

MINUTES OF REGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 24,1988
CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT:
RECYCLING PROPOSALS
City Administrator Bernhardson presented additional
information concerning recycling proposals. Polka-dot would be
the most economical vendor to use for curb -side pick-up, however
formal bids will probably be taken. The total cost of the
project would be approximately $26,000.00. However, Orono would
only pay a portion of that amount based upon the quantity of
recycling that occurs. The present cost per person would be
$8.40/year for pick-up bimonthly. The City could charge the
residents on their quarterly sewer bill or on the annual septic
fee. The City's goal is to begin this program by the first of
the year.
Mayor Grabek noted that should the City not put a recycling
program in place, the County would step in. Bernhardson
confirmed that and added that the County could put in whatever
servirc they wished and could charge whatever they wished.
Councilmember Goetten stated that she was pleased that such
a program was finally be addressed. She said that many citizens
in Orono were looxing for direction from the City and the Council
to initiate recyclinS;.
Councilmember. Callahan expressed his desire to have pick-up
occur where garbage pick-up occurred, as opposed to curb -side.
He said that due to the !.ength of many driveways in Orono, curb-
side pick-up could present a problem for people.
It was moved by Councilmember Callahan, seconded by Mayor
Grabek, to direct staff to get bids for both curbside and refuse
pick -up -location recycling, and explore the necessity of label
removal as suggested by Councilmember Nettles. Motion, Ayes-5,
Nays-0, Motion passed.
BUDGET ADOPTION - 1989
City Administrator Bernhardson asked whether the Council and
Mayor Grabek wanted to adopt the 1989 Budget. He pointed out the
fact that there were only two amendments assuming that the
recycling was done on a user charge basis. Those changes would
be converting the City Recorder's position to full time and
including a certain block of funds for the purpose of increasing
the levy should it be necessary.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Nettles, to adopt the 1989 Budget, as amended. Motion, Ayes=5,
Nays-0, Motion passed.
DANGEROUS WEAPONS -ORDINANCE AMENDMENT
City Administrator Bernhardson stated that this item
involved the recodification of this Ordinance in order to make
more sense of it. Additionally, three new items would be added
12
MINUTES OF itBGULAR ORONO COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 24,1988
DANGEROUS WEAPONS CONTINUED
to the Ordinance. One addition would be to allow B-B guns for
pest control in areas other than the 5-acre commercial,
agricultural or greater. Starting guns and approval authority
would be the other two additions. This was only being presented
to elicit comments and would be brought back for a vote at the
next Council meeting.
Councilmember Goetten asked if the changes would apply to
all zoning areas? Bernhardson answered affirmatively. Mayor
Grabek said he did not object to the proposal. Councilmember
Callahan reported that he had heard negative comments concerning
the passing of the Dangerous Weapons Ordinance.
It was moved by Mayor Grabek, seconded by Councilmember
Peterson, to review this item and have it presented again at the
November 14, 1988 Council Meeting. Motion, Ayes=5, Nays=O,

Meeting. Motion, Ayes=5, Nays=O, Motion passed.
SPRING PARR UTILITY PERSONNEL
SHARING AGREEKENT
City Administrator Bernhardson explained that the City had
been approached by Spring Park to share utility personnel. They
currently have one person in their Public Works Department and
had contracted to have a back-up. They have had a difficult time
obtaining a person with water and sewer qualifications to act as
a back-up. The recommendation is to allow Orono's designated
back-up to serve as Spring Park's back-up every other weekend.
It would generate funds for Orono because the back-up person is
already on call.
It was moved by Councilmember Callahan, seconded by Mayor
Grabek, to approve entering into an agreement with the City of
Spring Park for utility standby services as outlined in the
agreement. Motion, Ayes=5, Nays=O, Motion passed.

Subject: Park Commission Survey
In June of 1988, the Orono Park Commission proposed to conduct a
survey of the residents of Orono to asist the Park Commission in
long range planning.
At that time it was recommended to develop a questionaire to
be mailed to all residents by first class ;nail with a stamped,
self- addressed envelope for return of the questionaire. The
costs to accomplish this was estimated at $2,000 to $2,500.
The Council felt that the survey could be accomplished at a
lesser cost and directed staff to research the matter further.
The attached questionaire would be mailed out first class
but returned by way of Business Reply Mail (BRM).
The costs to accomplish this method is estimated at $1,500
to $1,800.
RECOMMENDATION - To approve proceeding with the survey and to
authorize up to $1,800 of which monies will be used from the

VARIANCES TO MUNICIPAL CODE
SECTION 10.22, SUBDIVISIONS 1 i 2
FILE NO. 1323
WHEREAS, the City of Orono is a municipal corporation organized
and existing under the laws of the State of Minnesota; and
WHEREAS, pursuart to State Statutes 412 et. seq. and 462 et. seq.
the City Council of the City of Orono has adopted Zoning Regulations for
the protection of the public health, safety and general welfare; and
WHEREAS, Jon W. Papas (hereinafter "the applicant") is the owner
of the property located at 3369 Crystal Bay Road within the City of Orono
(hereinafter "the City") and legally described as follows:
Lot 14, Wallaces Addition to the Village of Minnetonka Beach, Hennepin
County, Minnesota (hereinafter "the property"); and
WHEREAS, the applicant has applied to the City for after -the -fact
variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.22, Subdivision 1 and 2 to
grant after -the -fact approval for construction of a deck which constitutes
hardcover in the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone in excess of the 25%
hardcover normally allowed, and which constitutes structure within the 75'
lakeshore setback where no structure is normally allowed, and which
encroaches nearer the lake than the defined average lakeshore setback line
where no encroachment is normally allowed; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed the application; the
recommendations of the staff and Planning Commission; the comments and
written statements submitted by the neighboring property owners; and the
comments and written statements of the applicant.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City
of Orono hereby denies the requested hardcover, setback and average setback
variances for the property described above based upon one or more of the
following findings of fact concerning this property:
1. The property is located in the LR-IC, Single Family Lakeshore
Residential Zoning District.
2. The existing residence structure is located 65' from the shoreline
of Lake Minnetonka.
Page 1 of 3
3. The applicant constructed the existing deck in the spring and
summer of 1988 without the required building permit, in violation of
the City's hardcover, lakeshore setback and average lakeshore setback
ordinances. The deck that was constructed is only 55' from the shore-
line of Lake Minnetonka, where a 75' setback is normally required.
The deck encroaches 11' past the average lakeshore setback line where
no encroachment is normally allowed. The deck increases the hardcover
in the 0-75' lakeshore setback zone to 26.3% where no hardcover is
norms 1 ly a 1 lowed.
4. The applicant has demonstrated no adequate hardships to justify
granting of after -the -fact variances to allow the structure to remain.
5. Granting of the after -the -fact variances would not enhance Orono's
goal of maintaining the quality of water entering Lake Minnetonka.
6. Approval of after -the -fact variances for the deck would be
inconsistent with contemporary variance approvals granted by the City.
7. The Planning Commission reviewed this application at their regular
meeting of October 17, 1988 and voted 5 in favor, 2 against, to
recommend denial of the after -the -fact variances, finding that:
A. No hardship was presented that adequately justifies the
after -the -fact variances.
B. Approval of the structure will not enhance the quality of
water entering Lake Minnetonka.
C. This application, if it had been before -the -fact, would
likely have not been approved since approval would be
inconsistent with past City practice in similar situations.
8. The City Council finds that because the residence has a front door
which previously had a front step for access, which was removed to
accommodate the deck, it is appropriate for the applicant to replace
the front step as necessary to provide safe access to the house. Such
front step structure and its associated hardcover shall not exceed 30
s.f.
9. After -the -fact approval cannot be granted because such approval
would not meet the special conditions of Municipal Code Section 10.08,
Subdivision 3 regarding demonstration of a hardship, as follows:
A. The property in question car, be put to a reasonable use if
used under conditions allowed by the official controls.
Page 2 of 3
B. The plight of landowner is due to circumstances created by
the landowner.
C. The variances if granted will alter the essential character
of the locality, by extending structures closer to the lake than
the neighboring properties.
D. Economic consideration, including the fact that the structure
has already been L•uilt, is not an undue hardship because a
reasonable use for the property exists under the conditions
allowed by the Zoning Chapter.
E. The same conditions applying to the structure in question
apply generally to other land and structures in the district and
are not peculiar to this property.
F. The granting of the variances is not necessary for
preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property right of the
applicant.
G. The granting of the variances would be contrary to the intent
of the Zoning Code.
H. The granting of the variances would serve merely as a
convenience to the applicant but is not necessary to alleviate
demonstrable hardship or difficulty.
10. The property owner shall remove the 101x20' deck structure by
December 15, 1988.
Adopteu by the City Council of the City of Orono this 14th day of
November, 1988.

variance.

Exhibit C - Planning Commission Minutes of 10/17/88
Discussion -
Please review the memo and exhibits of October 10, 1988 including the
September 14, 1988 memo. The applicants are proposing to construct a new
residence on a lot within the Woodhill Ridge subdivision, approved in 1987.
Due to the nature of the lot, the applicants originally requested
variances to allow a 28' front yard setback where a 50' setback would
normally be required, and proposed to encroach with portion of house, decks
and retaining walls, as much as 20' into the 26' required wetlands setback.
After the initial Planning Ccmmission review, the applicants returned to
Planning Commission with a less intensive proposal, requiring only a 13'
front setback variance and including a 4' cantilevered encroachment into
the 26' wetland setback. This proposal received a Planning Commission
recommendation for denial on a vote of 4-3.
Note that the Planning Commission made three motions, as follows:
1. Approve the front yard setback variance, deny the 4' wetland
encroachment (motion failed 3-4).
2. Approve both variances (motion failed 2-5).
3. Deny both variances (motion passed 4-3).
Planning Commission's recommendation for denial was based on finding
no adequate hardships to justify the variances, especially for development
of a lot that was so recently created. It is the Planning Commission's
position that the applicant bought the property knowirg full well the
City's setback requirements, and any need for variance is created by the
property owner, not by the property itself.
In previous memos, which are attached, staff has included exhibits
showing the building envelope which was approved with the subdivision.

Staff Recn�endation -
Although the applicant and his architect have suggested that the best
development plan for the property will require variances, staff concurs
with the Planning Commission's majority opinion, that setback variances are
hard to justify on such a new lot that was created according to all current
standards.
Because of the Planning Commission's 4-3 vote for denial, staff has
not drafted a final resolution. A resolution reflecting Council's action
on this application will be drafted for your next meeting.

Discussion -
The applicants have revised their request by revising deck
configurations and the garage orientation, and have moved the house
slightly further south, so that the only variance needed is for the front
setback at the southeast corner of the house which will be 37' from the
front lot line rather than the required 50' setback. The current proposal
requires no work in the 26' wetland setback area.
Staff Reco�endation -
If Planning Commisson feels that the hardships suggested by the
a, plicant are valid, and if Planning Commission recommends approval of the
revised variance request, staff would suggest the following conditions of
approval:
1. Any additional encroachments o: changes to the footprint and site plan
must be approved by the City.
2. Absolutely no grading work is allowed within 26' of the Drainage and
Conservation and Flowage Easements.
3. Appropriate erosion control measures shall be in place during all
phases of construction of this residence, to insure that no sediments
enter the wetland.
4. Staff would note for
the record that
necessary grading
to accomplish
crossing of the drainage
easement for construction
of the septic
system was approved when
the lot was
subdivided, hence
that would be
the only grading work
anticipated within
the drainage easement area.

The applicant was present for this matter.
Assistant Planninq and Zoning Administrator Gaffron aptrised
the Planning Commission of the applicant's intent to excavate 3
small ponds and create a new tee box within the golf course
property. These proposed projects are all to take place within
an area adjacent to County Road 1:3, at the west side of the golf
course. The ponds would enhance not only the aest tic quality
of the course, but also the challenge of the game itself. They
should also aid in eliminating on-go-ag maintenance problems in
wet areas. The tee box is being relocated because of complaints
from neighboring prope-' '_es. The new location will place the tee
box approximately 1 further away from the neighboring
property. There will be some fill removed and the spoils will be
deposited in a location where there will be no adverse effect on
drainage. The City Engineer and the Minnehaha Creek Watershed
District has reviewed and approved the proposal.
,-, ere were no comments from the public regarding this matter
and the public hearing was closed. -
Mr. Wenkstern explained that he was hoping to eliminate some
water problems by i,nstalll - the ponds and relocating the tee box
should redirect the golf b,.11s away from the road and passing
cars.

whether it would be beneficial to relocate the green to avoid
road traffic. Planning Commission m^.°giber Cohen interjezted that

MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING SBPTB1(8ER 19, 1988
ZONING FILE #1329-MCNELLIS CONTINUE')
The applicants were present for this matter.
Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron
explained that applicants were seeking variances to a front yard
setaback and 26' wetland setback. the lot was originally created
from the Woodhill Ridge subdivision and accesses through Woodhill
Road. Originally the lot was platted with full knowledge of the
existing wetland and drainage easement. There is a 50' front
setback and 30' side setback and a 26' wetland setback. The
applicants may not have been aware of the 26' wetland setback.
Kelley inquired as to when the subdivision was completed.
Gaffron replied 1986/1987. Gaffron showed the Planning
Commission a topographical view of the area and stated that the
property contains a steep slope going down to the wetland area.
The space left for the building envelope is approximately 65' in
depth and 200'-250' in length. The proposed setbacks for the
house would be 37' and 28' where 50' is required. The deck,
retaining wall and a corner of the house would all encroach into
the wetland area. The applicants are also proposing to place
fill east of and at both ends of the retaining wall, which is
within the boundaries of the Drainage and Conservation and
Flowage Easements.
Staffs initial reaction to this was that a linear concept
house would be more appropriate for this particular lot. The
applicants are proposing an "L" shaped house. Gaffron questioned
whether there was a hardship that would justify granting all of
the setback variances.
Planning Commission member Johnson inquired as to the length
and width of the house, from front to back, top to bottom.
Gaffron responded that the proposed length south to north is
about 120' with the east -west dimension at the garage area about
90'.
Mr. McNellis stated that the variances would differ
depending upon the location of the front of the lot. In looking
at adjacent property, what has been determined as the front of
the lot is different from the McNellis property. The proposed
McNellis house would face the private road that accesses the old
Pillsbury house. There is an adjacent lot which was plotted so
that the back of the lot is on the road, which is also where the
utility lines connect to that property. The McNellis lot is an
unusual piece of land; it is 3 1/4 acres, but only 11% is
suitable for building.
Planning Commission member Bellows inquired whether the
Carpenter property accessed off of the same private "Pillsbury
Road". Gaffron explained that property actually accessed off of
Russell, but at one time there was a connection. Chairman Kelley
stated that when the subdivision off of Woodhill was done, the
developers were told to close off that connection.
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION METING SEPTEMBER 19, 1988
ZONING FILE #1329-MCNELLIS CONTI2NUED
Mr. McNellis explained the topography of the lot to the
road; the property slopes and then levels out. This level spot
would be the natural building location. The property then slopes
again to the drainage easement and where it goes back up, there
is another level spot where the septic system for the proposed
house would be located. Mr. McNellis stated that Mr. Dickey was
asked to design a house that would not only accomodate their
living needs, but that would also adhere to the irregular shape
of the lot. He was especially concerned about preserv4ng the
mature trees on the property. The proposed home should bend in
with the lot and should not create much disturbance of the
surrounding area. Because of the private road that comes into the
lot, there is no parking area. As the road comes up the hill at
an elevation of 84, that would be the proposed location of the
driveway. This would allow for very little excavation for a
nearly level driveway and sufficient off-street parking. There is
a strip of land that was sold to Mr. Prudden when the Pillsbury
property was sold. Over part of this strip there is an easement
for driveway access, and that strip, together with the setback,
leaves more than 50' from the road. The proposed plan was
presented to Mr. Prudden, who indicated that he liked the plan.
The layout of the land lends itself perfectly to a walk -out style
home. There is a 10' slope to the back of the proposed house
which will only require "notching in" the house to the hillside.
Planning Commission member Johnson asked Mr. McNellis if all
of the trees on the property were mature maples. Mr. McNellis
replied that there are oak trees as well, but maples are
predominant.
Planning Commission member Bellows asked about the Prudden
easement. Zoning Administrator Mabusth stated that there could
not be a connecting road, although there accesses have been
located around the Prudden property. There is a section of land
that is supposed to serve the lower lot that had to be acquired
through the Prudden parcel. The parcel is land -locked in a
sense. The access is around the northern side of the Prudden
property, but the McNellis property is blocked on their side.
However, Mr. McNellis is referring to another easement. Mr.
McNellis stated that the Prudden easement Bellows was referring
to was to come through his lot. The driveway would come in
through the Prudden property by way of an easement.
Planning Commission member Johnson asked whether another
subdivision would be possible in the future. Gaffron and Mabusth
concurred that would be possible. His concern is that the
subdivision was just before the Planning Commission a year and a
half ago. At that time, the Planning Commission tried to
allow adequate building envelopes and now one of the first houses
built in the subdivision is asking for variances. Mr. McNellis
stated that there is enough room to build vertically which would
be more obtrusive to the neighboring property. Planning
28
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION METING SEPTEMBER 19, 1988
ZONING FILED #1329-MCNELLIS CONTINUED
Commission member Bellows interjected that there could be other
ways to design an adequately -sized house as a one story house.
Planning Commission member Cohen stated that if Mr. McNellis were
to buy the strip of property from Prudden, he would conform to to
that setback. Planning Commission member Hanson stated that is
somewhat compelling that the *oddball chunk of Prudden property"
could rationalize beyond the 50'. Chairman Kelley asked Mr.
McNellis if he now owned the property. Mr. McNellis answered
affirmatively. Kelley explained that there is no hardship. Mr.
McNellis stated that the trees would be a hardship. Bellows
pointed out that the present proposal would kill 19 trees. She
also corrected Cohen and Hanson with regard to the Prudden
easement. It would apply only to the southern end of the
property, not the 28' at the top. Zoning Administrator Mabusth
confirmed Bellow's observation and indicated that a lot line
rearrangement would be necessary for applicant to obtain a
portion of Prudden's property.
Chairman Kelley addressed the issue as to where the front of
the lot was located. Bellows stated that the definition of
"front" as being that frontage which faces, is on or
parallel to the road. Mr. McNellis argued that the road was
actually a driveway. Bellows responded that it was Mr. McNellis'
access and there was no question as to the location of the front
of the lot. Bellows said that she agreed that the site was not
easily buildable, but there were no hardships presented. She
would have a difficult time granting the number of variances
requested.
Planning Commission member Hanson asked about the septic
system. Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron
replied that the septic system would be placed across on the
high ground, west of the drainage easement. Hanson asked if
applicant would need to pump uphill. Gaffron responded in the
affirmative. Cohen asked if that was a feasible project. Hanson
responded that it was feasible, but undesireable.
There were no comments from the public regarding this matter
and the public hearing was closed.
Mr. McNellis expressed his desire to address the 26' rear
setback. He explained that a portion of the lot was shaped like
a deep dish, that would decline and then incline. The proposal
is to have a portion of the deck that would be 20' above the
runoff area. It seemed to him that the 26' setback would apply
to different topography, as there would be no restriction of
water running upstream or downstream. Planning Commission member
Bellows stated that the retaining wall was the problem, not the
deck footing. Mr. Dickey, the applicants' architect explained
that there was a necessity to retain the earth. Bellows
acknowledged that fact, but added that it should be retained
outside of the 26' setback. Mr. Dickey said that the narrow
29
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING SEPTEMBER 19, 1988
ZONING TILE #1329-MCNELLIS CONTINUED
width of the lot was a hardship the Planning Commission
overlooked. 65' was not a lot of space in which to build the
proposed house. Planning Commission member Cohen stated that the
applicant should have been aware of the restrictions prior to
buying the lot_ Mr. McNellis agreed, but said he did not
understand all of the variances. The 26' setback from the 10'
easement came as a surprise to him. Mr. McNellis reiterated the
fact that the house would be virtually invisible. Bellows
explained to Mr. McNellis that the Planning Commission's concern
was how the land works, not who can see the house. It may be
true that the proposed house had very little visual impact,
however, it does present quite a bit of environmental impact.
The applicant requested the Planning Commission table this
matter and allow him the opportunity to do more study of how to
approach the variance problems.
It was moved by Planning Commission member Cohen, seconded
by Planning Commission member Bellows, to table this item.
Motion, Ayes-5, Nays=O, Motion passed.

the requirements was perfectly clear. She did not think that the
applicant/owner should be penalized for the unprofessionalism of
the architect. The architect stated that he thought it
ridiculous to have to come before the Planning Commission for the
type of pillars he was pr-)posing. The guidelines were not
specific as to those items.
"'here were no comments from the public rLgarding this matter
and the public hearing was closed.
It was moved by Planning Commission member Johnson, seconded
by Planning Commission member Hanson, to recommend approval of
#1332, per staff recommendations. Chairman Kelley inquired as to
the hardship in this instance. The architect indicated that
safety was a factor in that the lights on the pillars were
necessary to light an inadequately lit driveway. Motion,
Ayes-4, Kelley -Nay due to a lack of hardship.

Subject: #1329 Thomas McNellis, 355 Woodhill Road -
Variances - Public Hearing
Application - Request for 50' front yard and 26' wetland setback variances
to construct a new residence.
Zoning District - RR-lB
List of Exhibits
Exhibit A - Application
Exhibit B - Plat Map
Exhibit C - Property Owners List
Exhibit D - Letter of Request
Exhibit E - Site Plan Showing Required Setbacks
Exhibit F - Topographic Survey Showing Originally Approved Building
Envelope
Exhibit G - Proposed Site Plan With Staff Notations
Exhibit H - Full Sized Copy of Proposed Site Plan
Exhibit I - Relationship to Private Road and Area Development
Pertinent Facts -
1. This lot was platted recently as Lot 3, Block 1 of Woodhill Ridge. At
the time of subdivision, the building envelope approved was in the
easterly half of the lot, about 65' in depth and just over 200' in
width (see Exhibit F).
2. The property owner and his architect initially requested a front
setback variance to allow construction of a new residence
approximately 20' from the front lot line. They have additionally
revised that request to ask for a variance to the 26' wetland setback
in order to construct the house slightly further west on the property
and apparently decrease the required front yard setback.
Zoning File #1329
September 14, 1988
Page 2 of 3
3. Encroachments proposed into the 26' wetland setback are as follows:
A) Southerly and northerly decks, encroaching 1' and 10'
respectively into the 26' setback.
B) Encroachment of one corner of the house, no more than 5' into
the 26' setback.
C) Proposed retaining wall for approximately a 50' length is
encroaching 8' into the 26' setback, to a northerly point that
encroaches 20' into the 26' setback (see Exhibit G).
D) Fill is proposed east of and at both ends of the retaining
wall.
4. Per Exhibit G, the applicant is requesting a front yard setback of 28'
where a 50' front setback is normally required. No side setback
variance is required.
Discussion -
Please review the letter from applicant's architect. Staff would
concur with the statement that this property has a relatively small
building envelope compared to the total lot area. The lot also would seem
to lend itself to a particularly linear design framework. The proposed
footprint does not strictly stay in keeping with the linear concept that
the normal building envelope would allow.
You may recall from the subdivision review that the wetland on this
property is essentially a bowl shaped area, with a relatively small
watershed draining into it. This wetland was designated and a Conservation
and Flowage Easement granted over it and its outlet area during the
subdivision. The nature of the drainageway south of the wetland would
indicate that this wetland rarely rises to a height that would result in
overflow.
This wetland is relatively high in the watershed, and the proposed
encroachment into the 26' setback, but not into the wetland itself, would
seem to pose no threat to the storage capability of the wetland, nor will
it have a significant effect on water quality. I would also note that the
proposed basement floor elevations is approximately 12' above the outlet
elevation, hence flooding of the house is not a concern.
Zoning File #1329
September 14, 1988
Page 3 of 3
Also in regards to the wetland setback, note that at the north end of
the house there will be a minor amount of filling within the 26' wetland
setback, but no fill is proposed in a location less than 4' above the
wetland outlet elevation.
Regarding the front yard setback, note that the proposed encroaching
house corners are 37' and 28' respectively from the front lot line while
being 73' and 55' respectively from the actual pavement of the private
road. The proposed driveway and apron will cover much of the front yard
area.
Staff Recomendation -
Staff's initial reaction is that a house could certainly be designed
to fit the limited building envelope normally required, however, aesthetic
and functional concerns have led the applicant and his architect to the
proposed design. Staff feels the requested variances will have no
significant impact on the wetland nor on the quality of run-off that
ultimately may enter Lake Minnetonka from this sight. Planning Commission
may wish to review Exhibit I, which shows the layout of the existing
private road which serves this residence and the former Pillsbury residence
to the east. All other lots of the Woodhill Ridge subdivision will access
off Woodhill Avenue.
If Planning Commission feels that the hardships suggested by the
architect are valid, and if Planning Commission recommends approval of the
requested variances, staff would suggest the following conditions of
approval:
1. Any additional encroachments or changes to the footprint and site plan
must be approved by the City.
2. Absolutely no grading work will be allowed within the boundaries of
the Drainage and Conservation and Flowage Easements.
3. Appropriate erosion control measures shall be in place during all
phases of construction of this residence, to insure that no sediments
enter the wetland.
4. Removal of fallen trees and debris within the drainage easement
setback area will be allowed, but no grade changes other than those
proposed on the approved site plan will be allowed.
5. Applicant is advised to contact the M.C.W.D. to determine whether they
will require a permit for th-'s work.

RE: VARIANCE APPLICATIM NO. 1329
THDMS M 4ELLIS RESIDENCE
355 Woodhill Road, Wayzata, MN 55391
Dear Mr. Gaffron:
The Owner of the above referenced property wishes to amend the variance
application as follows (please refer also to enclosed site plan):
The purpose of this variance request is to obtain the best land use
possible by minimizing the impact on the property and surrounding land.
The intent in siting the residence on the property is to blend the house
into the natural landscape by moving a minimal amount of a:oil and thereby
saving as many trees as possible. In so doing, the natural habitat for
wildlife will be preserved.
In order to obtain the best possible land use, a rear variance from the
required 26 foof setback from the drainage easement is requested, in
addition to the 30 foot front setback variance originally requested. The
conditions of this variance will be as follows:
1. Portions of two decks will extend beyond the 26 foot drainage easement
setback. The underside of the deck shall be a mimimum of 15 feet above
the low point of the drainage ditch. A maximum of two columns
supporting these decks shall extend past the setback; the base of the
column at grade shall be a minimum of 6 feet above the low point of the
drainage ditch.
2. A portion of the house will extend beyond the drainage easement
setback. At no point shall the foundation extend more than 5 feet
beyond this setback, and no more than 1% of the floor area shall extend
beyond the setback.

3. Retaining walls will be located within the 26 foot drainage easement
setback. These retaining walls shall be utilized to prevent soil
erosion, save mature trees, and evenly disperse water into the drainage
area.
4. The drainage easement setback area shall be cleared of fallen trees and
debris by the Owner, thereby improving hhe free flow of water which
currently exists.
A severe hardship exists for developing this property with current
setbacks. The drainage easement bisects the property; only 11.6% of the
property remains for development with the required setbacks.
Granting a variance for the drainage easement setback would allow a free
flow of water in the drainage area during the heaviest rainfall. The house
will better blend into its natural site, and many mature trees will be
saved over alternate siting possibilitiPz. The variance will have no
impact on the neighbors. The owner has r. sewed the site plan with Jahn
Prudden, who has indicated that he is pleased with the plan and has no
objection to a 30 foot front yard variance.
We appreciate your consideration in this matter.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Mary S. Hustad, A.I.A.

Dear W. Gaffron:
At your request, we are outlining the hardship and solutions discovered on
the captioned project as follows:
1. Rotating the building for a west orientation will allow us to comply
more positively with the existing topography and drainage of the
building envelope to the wet lands.
2. We have a desire to conserve the more nature trees on the site and we
can accomplish this without using severe grade changes by moving the
residence rather than keeping the structure within the building
envelope.
3. The more westerly orientation of the building in contrast to the
northwesterly layout will produce energy conservation savings.
4. Off street parking is required since there is not space on the entrance
drive for normal street parking. Rotation of the building helps answer
this problem.
5. Granting the variance will allow the west edge of the house to be a
greater distance from the 26' setback, therefore allowing room for
adequate retaining walls within the building envelope, enhancing the
diversion of water to the wet lands.

the property. '.-tth regard to the drainage, an independent
hydrologist wouia need to be hired to provide a plan for drainage
control. Kelley also requested grading plans and site plans so
that the actual runoff can be determined. The issue of the road
would also need to be addressed and Kelley asked that a
representative from the Wayzata Country Club be present the next
time this matter was before the Planning Commission. Mrs. Hauser
indicated that she was concerned about the road and private
driveway taking out all of the vegetation that currently acts as
a buffer for their property. Cohen added that safety would be a
major factor should the road become a public road. Motion,
Ayes=7, Nays=0, Motion passed.

#1329 THOMAS MCNELLIS
355 WOODHILL ROAD
VARIANCES -SECOND REVIEW
The applicant was present for this matter.
A brief review of this application was given by Assistant
Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron. He stated that a
front setback variance was required. The applicant has revised
his proposal by changing the deck and garage, in addition to
moving the location of the house slightly further south. The
applicant now requires only a variance for the front setback
which will be 37' rather than the required 50'. There will no
longer be an encroachment into the wetland setback area, but
applicant requests that the City allow cantilevering of the deck
into the 26' wetland setback.
Chairman Kelley inquired as to the number of houses that
could possibly be built to the north of this property. Gaffron
stated that there is currently one house, with a potential for
one more. Kelley asked the applicant whether the access road was
private or public. Mr. McNellis replied that the road was a
private road that served the old Pillsbury home that is now owned
by John Prudden. Kelley asked about the remainder of the road
that connects with Woodhill. Gaffron stated that Woodhill Road
was actually owned by Woodhill Country Club. Kelley asked
whether the applicant had any agreement with the owners of the
road in case the heavy construction equipment should damage the
road. Mr. McNellis responded that he would be responsible for
repairing the road if it was damaged.
Planning Commission member Bellows asked how many acres Mr.
Prudden owned. Mr. McNellis replied that he had a little over 8
acres. Bellows observed that there could be 4 houses built in
that location.
Kelley asked how far the building envelope was from the

MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION I4EETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING FILE #1329-MCNELLIS CONTINUED
travelled road. Mr. McNellis stated it was 73' to the edge of
the house, but there is a 36' strip of land owned by Mr. Prudden
between his house and the roadway. Mr. Prudden granted an
easement for the purpose of putting in the driveway. Kelley
asked Mr. McNellis whether he had asked to purchase that land
from Mr. Prudden. Mr. McNellis responded in the affirmative and
added that Mr. Prudden was not able to sell the land because he
wished to maintain 8 acres.
Planning Commission member Johnson commented that he was
comfortable with the proposal and looked upon the deck as an
overhang rather than an actual structure. Bellows indicated that
she would not approve the deck because the applicant knew what
the building envelope was at the time they purchased the
property. She added that she might be willing to approve the
front setback. Hanson concurred. Cohen stated that he was
uncomfortable with the entire proposal. He said the area was
peculiar from the very beginning. He too thought that the
applicant was aware of the problems with the buildability of the
lot at the time he purchased the property. Moos concurred with
Cohen's opinion. Planning Commission member Brown indicated that
due to the unique characteristics of the lot, he would have no
problems with the proposal.
It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning
Commission member Hanson, to recommend approval of the front yard
setback, and denial of the 4' encroachment into the wetland.
Motion, Ayes=2, Nays=5. It was moved by Planning Commission
member Johnson, seconded by Planning Commission member Brown, to
recommend approval of the front yard setback and the 4'
encroachment into the wetlands. Motion, Ayes=2, Nrys-5. It was
moved by Planning Commission member Bellows, seconded by Planning
Commission member Moos, to recommend denial of both the front
yard setback and the 4' encroachment into the wetlands. Motion,
Ayes=4, Kelley, Brown and Johnson, Nay, Motion passed.
Mr. McNellis stated that the hardship involved with his
application had not been discussed. Kelley explained that the
application had been thoroughly reviewed and this was the second
time this matter had been presented. He felt the Planning
Commission was fully aware of the hardships. Mr. McNellis asked
for suggestions as to how he could place the house on the
property. He said he would have a problem with surface runoff if
he were to place the house in another location within the
building envelope. Hanson stated that he understood the
constraints involved, but thought it would be possible to build
within those constraints. Cohen reminded Mr. McNellis about his
right to go before the Council and the fact that the Planning
Commission was only an advisory body. Bellows added that the
motion was necessary so that Mr. McNellis could proceed to the
City Council. She also stated that Mr. McNellis had previously
been given the suggestion to redesign the house to fit within the
12
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988

building envelope.
Mr. McNellis reiterated his belief that the Planning
Commission did not understand the environmental hardship involved
with his application. He explained that there was a culvert in
the Prudden Road that brings water onto his property and further
restricts the building envelope. Kelley asked Mr. McNellis
whether or not he was aware of this problem when he bought the
lot? Planning Commission member Johnson recommended that Mr.
McNellis bring the matter to the City Council. He pointed out
the fact that the Planning Commission was split in their
recommendations. Kelley told Mr. McNellis to write down his
hardships and present them to the City Council.

CLASS III PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION
SECOND REVIEW
Mr. Mark Gronberg, of Coffin & Gronberg, was present as a
representative of the applicants.
Assistant Planning & Zoning Administrator Gaffron stated
that this application was previously reviewed at the September
19, 1988 Planning Commission Meeting. Since that time, soil
borings were taken and soil types determined in those areas that
were questionable. The application involves a seven lot
subdivision along the west side of Townline Road. Gaffron said
that he had been on the building sites with the applicants'
engineer and they had determined that there was at least one, if
not more possible building locations within each lot. The Hamel
soils were not as extensive as originally indicated. Staff
recommended approval of this application.
It was moved by Planning Commission member Cohen, seconded
by Planning Commission member Brown, to recommend approval of
this application, subject to staff's recommendations and
conditions. Bellows asked what the current park fees were.
Gaffron explained that the fees were based upon the lot size.

travelled road. Mr. McNellis stated it was 73' to the edge of
the house, but there is a 36' strip of land owned by Mr. Frudden
between his house and the roadway. Mr. Prudden granted an
easement for the purpose of putting in the driveway. Kelley
asked Mr. McNellis whether he had asked to purchase that land
from Mr. Prudden. Mr. McNellis responded in the affirmative and
added that Mr. Prudden was not able to sell the land because he
wished to maintain 8 acres.
Planning Commission member Johnson commented that he was
comfortable with the proposal and looked upon the deck as an
overhang rather than an actual structure. Bellows indicated that
she would not approve the deck because the applicant knew what
the building envelope was at the time they purchased the
property. She added that she might be willing to approve the
front setback. Hanson concurred. Cohen stated that he was
uncomfortable with the entire proposal. He said the area was
peculiar from the very beginning. He too thought that the
applicant was aware of the problems with the buildability of the
lot at the time he purchased the property. Moos concurred with
Cohen's opinion. Planning Commission member Brown indicated that
due to the unique characteristics of the lot, he would have no
problems with the proposal.
It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning
Commission member Hanson, to recommend approval of the front yard
setback, and denial of the 4' encroachment into the wetland.
Motion, Ayes=2, Nays=5. It was moved by Planning Commission
member Johnson, seconded by Planning Commission member Brown, to
recommend approval of the front yard setback and the 4'
encroachment into the wetlands. Motion, Ayes=2, Nays=5. It was
moved by Planning Commission member Bellows, seconded by Planning
Commission member Moos, to recommend denial of both the front
yard setback and the 4' encroachment into the wetlands. Motion,
Ayes=4, Kelley, Brown and Johnson, Nay, Motion passed.
Mr. McNellis stated that the hardship involved with his
application had not been discussed. Kelley explained that the
application had been thoroughly reviewed and this was the second
time this matter had been presented. He felt the Planning
Commission was fully aware of the hardships. Mr. McNellis asked
for suggestions as to how he could place the house on the
property. He said he would have a problem with surface runoff if
he were to place the house in another location within the
building envelope. Hanson stated that he understood the
constraints involved, but thought it would be possible to build
within those constraints. Cohen reminded Mr. McNellis about his
right to go before the Council and the fact that the Planning
Commission was only an advisory body. Bellows added that the
motion was necessary so that Mr. McNellis could proceed to the
City Council. She also stated that Mr. McNellis had previously
been given the suggestion to redesign the house to fit within the

FILE #1339
WHEREAS, David E. F. Lee (hereinafter "the applicant") is the
owner of the property located at 2695 Casco Point Road within the City of
Orono (hereinafter "City") and legally described as follows:
Lot 3, Auditor's Subdivision No. 265, Hennepin County, Minnesota
(hereinafter "property"); and
WHEREAS, the applicant has made after -the -fact application to the
City of Orono to permit retaining walls and certain land alterations within
75' of the lake where Section 10.22, Subdivision 2 would allow no
structures or land alterations and per Section 10.03, Sur-li.vision 19 seeks
approval of a conditional use permit for the retaining walls and land
alterations within the lakeshore of the property.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Orono,
Minnesota:
FINDINGS
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #p1339.
2. The property is located in the LR-lC Single Family Lakeshore
Residential Zoning District requiring a minimum of .5 acres of dry
contiguous land in area.
3. The property consists of approximately .4+ acres in area.
4. The Orono Planning Commission reviewed this application on October
17, 1988 and recommended approval of the proposed after -the -fact
variances and conditional use permit as set forth above, based on the
following findings:
A) The proposed lakeshore improvement will prevent the continued
erosion of the lakeshore bank and provide stabilization of the
lakeshore bank.
B) The Orono inspection staff has confirmed the former retaining
walls and access stairs were in a deteriorated and unsafe
condition.

RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL

5. T'ho? Orono Council conceptually reviewed this application on
Octob4�z 14, 1988 and recommended approval of the after -the -fact
varianves and conditional use permit but asked for specific
alterations of the existing retaining wall and changes in the final
grades within the upper wall sections. This approval was based on the
following findings:
A) The lakeshore restoration plan as amended by the Council is
more consistent with the guidelines established by the City in
the consideration of similar after -the -fact applications.
B) As amended, the wall sections would conti.nue to provide
stability for the bank but wall exposure would be reduced by 60%.
C) The proposal as amended by the Council would retain the sub-
structure of the upper retaining walls that would continue to
provide the needed -tability of the disturbed bank area. Final
grades at 211:1 slope within the upper retaining wall areas will
also allow for vegetation to return.
6. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this pro-
perty are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other property
in this zoning district; that granting the variance would not
adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire hazard
or other danger to neighboring properties; would not merely serve as a
convenience to the applicant, but is necessary to alleviate a demon-
strable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a substantial
property right of the applicant; and would be in keeping with the
spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the
City.
7. The City Council finds that granting a conditional use permit to
allow the retaining wall structure to remain in the lakeshore yard as
amended will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general
welfare of the public, would not adversely affect light, air nor pose
a fire hazard or other danger to neighboring properties, nor will it
depreciate surrounding property values and that the proposed level of
use of the property will be in keeping with the intent and objectives
of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan of the City.

We inspected the David Lee property at 2695 Casco Point Road. The lake shore
has been altered by the construction of several retaining walls.
We do not know what condition the lake shore bank was in prior to construc-
tion. Ve did review the site several years ago with the previous owner and
the lak, .hore bank appeared stable.
The retaining wall construction will stabilize the bank and minimize the po-
tential for future slope failure. The construction, however, is not consist-
ent with City approvals on other applications.
There are three basic options for addressing the problem with many variations
of Each option. The first would be to leave the walls in place and camouflage
them with bushes and shrubs as proposed by Janes Robin. The second would be
to modiy the walls le sections in place to stabilize &he bank. The area_
would then be graded and ground cover established restore the bank. The
third would be to remove the walls entirely and restore e a to its
original condition.
Option one is not consistent with previous city approvals. The proposal is
structurally sound but does not provide the lake shore continuity desired by
the City.
Option two would leave the lover lake shore wall exposed and the upper two
walls would be buried. The wall sections would continue to provide stability
for the bank but wall exposure would be reduced by 60 percent. We have indi-
cated the amount of wall to be removed on the attached drawing.

Re: File No. 139

Option three would not have any wall exposed and the bank should be reinforced
with fabric or buried cribbing for stability. It may be possible to leave
small sections of the upper wall in place for stability. The bank would be
steep and special ground cover mats would be required to hold the new grass or
plantings inplace.
We would recommend that the City follow option two or three. If you have any
questions, please contact this office.

2715/2710 Pence Lane - Variance - Resolution
Application - Height and setback variance to construct entrance gate for
security purposes.
Zoning District - LR-1B
List of Exhibits
Exhibit A - Proposed Resolution
Exhibit B - Notice of Planning Commission Action Dated 10/21/88
Exhibit C - Memo & Exhibits of 10/12/88
Discussion -
Please review the memo and exhibits of October 12, 1988. The
applicants share a private driveway known as Pence Lane, which serves a
total of three residences. 'Ihe proposed gateway structure will be
approximately 150' in from Kelly Avenue, just past the driveway entrance to
the Dailey residence at 2701 Pen-,e Lane.
The variances requested originally include a height variance (if this
is considered as a fence) to allow the structure to be 7�' high instead of
the 3h' height normally allowed. Also, if this is considered as an
accessory structure, it would normally have to be located 30' from the
north lot line and 10' from the side lot lines. If it met those setbacks,
and was considered as an accessory structure, the height variance would not
be needed.
A number of neighboring property owners were present at the Planning
Commission meeting regarding this application. Their concerns ranged from
visual proximity of the structure to their properties, to pedestrian access
for neighborhood children through the 'ferry's property, Lc c �c oc-ncerns
about traffic down Pence Lane having to back into the Dailey driveway when
the gateway barrier is encountered. An additional concern noted by the
City was that a portion of the monument would encroach onto the 10'
drainage and utility easement along the west lot line.
To resolve the noted issues, the applicants agreed to the following:
1. Move the gateway structure further south on the property, meeting
a 20' setback from the north lot line and meeting the required 10'
setback from the side lot line. This would require only the granting
of a variance to allow the 10' encroachment into the required 30'
setback from the north lot line, plus the height variance.

the City of Orono (hereinafter "City") and legally described as follows:
Lot 1, Block 1, Carman Bay Heights, Hennepin County, Minnesota
(hereinafter "the property"); and
WHEREAS, Michael Halley Homes and Dean and Victoria Terry jointly
shall be considered as "the applicants" for purposes of this resolution;
and
WHEREAS, the applicants have applied to the City for a variance
to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.03, Subdivision 9 (D) and Section
10.24, Subdivision 5 (B) to allow an accessory structure gateway system to
be located 20' from the defined rear lot line where a 30' rear lot line
setback is normally required, and a variance to Section 10.03, Subdivision
14 (C) to allow the height of this fence -type structure to exceed the 3k'
maximum fence height normally allowed within the required rear yard area of
a lakeshore lot.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Orono,
Minnesota:
FINDINGS
1. This application was reviewed as Zoning File #1347.
2. The property is located in the LR-1B Single Family Lakeshore
Residential Zoning District.
3. The Orono Planning Conunission reviewed this application on October
17, 1988 and recommended approval of the proposed variances by a vote
of 3 to 2, based upon the following findings:
A) The proposed structure includes entry monuments and wing
walls on either side of the shared driveway serving the
properties at 2710 and 2715 Pence Lane, and will have an
electrically controlled gate suspended between the two monuments.
Page 1 of 4
Zoning File #11347
November 1, 1988
Page 2 of 2
2. The applicants will provide a back-up apron within their
boundaries so that any traffic traveling up Pence Lane and being
stopped by the gateway, will be able to back-up somewhere other than
the Dailey's driveway.
3. The applicants stated for the record that they had no problem with
neighborhood children walking across the property to get to Kelly
Avenue, but were unaware of any formal easement that neighbors thought
(or hoped) might exist over the applicants' property.
The Planning Commision at their October 17th meeting voted 3 to 2 to
recommend approval of the gate structure at the proposed 716" height,
maintaining a 20' front setback from the north lot line, and granting no
side setback variance (monuments must be at least 10' from the side lot
line). Although the minority opinion (Kell•,,, Moos) was not specifically
discussed, Chairman Kelley earlier had noted he felt that the hardships for
variances for these structures are questionable.
Staff Recommendation -
Based on the Planning Commission's recommendation for approval, staff
has drafted a resolution for approval, incorporating the revisions agreed
to by the applicants at the October 17th meeting. Staff would recommend
approval.
B) The applicants bay: a re-• :sed their proposal to move the
proposed gateway and monumentz '_uither away from the neighboring
property lines, so that no setback variance is needed from the
west side lot 'Line, and -r.ly a 10' setback variance is required
from the north lot line. Based on this re'ocation, there is no
conflict with the existing drainage and utility easement along
the west or north lot lines.
C) The dreposed gateway structurt- will allow adequate width for
emergency vehicle access..
D) The applicants will provide a back-up turnaround apron within
the property boundaries, so that unwanted traffic does not have
to back up onto neighboring properties.
E) The hardships that support the variances include the need for
security and limitation of traffic onto this private road serving
only two residences, the height variance being necessary to allow
construction of a structure of a size and scale to be a deterrent
in itself, the setback variance necessary to keep the structure
near enough to the entrance of the property to deter unwanted
traffic from entering the property.
4. The City Council has considered this application including the
findings and recommendations of the Planning Commission, reports by
City staff, comments by the applicants and the effect of the proposed
variance on the health, safety and welfare of the community.
5. The City Council finds that the conditions existing on this
property are peculiar to it and do not apply generally to other
property in this zoning district; that granting the variances would
not adversely affect traffic conditions, light, air nor pose a fire
hazard or other danger to neighboring property; would not merely serve
as a convenience to the applicants, but is necessary to alleviate a
demonstrable hardship or difficulty; is necessary to preserve a
substantial property right of the applicants; and would be in keeping
with the spirit and intent of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan
of the City.
CONCLUSIONS, ORDER AND CONDITIONS
Based upon one or more of the findings noted above, the Orono
City Council hereby grants a variance per Municipal Zoning Code Section
10.03, Subdivision 9 (D) and Section 10.24, Subdivision 5 (B) to permit the
construction of an accessory structure gateway system located 20' from the
rear lot line where a 30' rear yard setback is normally required and grants
a variance to Section 10.03, Subdivision 14 (C) to allow such structure to
exceed the 3Y maximum height normally allowed for such structures within a
required rear yard setback area, subject to the following conditions:
Paye 2 of 4
1. The applicants shall provide a back-up turnaround apron within the
property boundaries so that all unwanted traffic has the capability of
backing up without using neighboring driveways.
2. Maximum height of the entrance monuments shall be 7h', per the
proposed plan. Any changes to that plan will require further Council
review.
3. Any lighting associated with the structure shall be directed
downward so that the source of light is not direct-y visible from
neighboring properties.
4. The existing sign posts extending approximately 7' above grade
shall be removed in conjunction with the construction of the new
gateway.
5. Authorities granted with this resolution run with the property not
with the applicants, but are permissive only and must be exercised by
application for a building permit within one year of the date of
Council approval, or this variance will expire on that date (November
14, 1989).
b. Violation of or non-compliance with any of the terms and
conditions of this resolution shall constitute a violation of the
zoning code, shall automatically terminate any authority granted
herein, and shall be punishable as a misdemeanor.
7. The undersigned applicants have read, understood and hereby agree
to the terms of this resolution and on behalf of themselves, their
heirs, successors and assigns, hereby agree to the recording of this
resolution in the chain of title of the property.

B) Section 10.24, Subdivision 5 (B) - Requires a rear yard setback of
301. (For the Pence Lane property in question, no accessory buildings
other than a garage would be allowed within 30' of the north lot 'line
of the property.)
C) Section 10.03, Subdivision 14 (C) - The maximum height of a fence -

Pertinent Facts -
1. The applicants are requesting to construct an entrance gate for
security purposes and they feel that the 3h' maximum height is not
sufficient to provide the security they require. The entire
structure, including the gate, is approximately 40' in width.
The proposed gateway is about 4' in height with monument roof peak on
each side of about 7h'.

2. The gateway will be located approximately 150' up the private driveway
from Kelly Avenue. This private driveway serves just the two rouses
at 2710 and 2715 Pence Lane.
3. The 16' span between the overhangs on the two structures meets the
minimum lal width required for a fire truck with side mirrors to pass,
hence the gateway is acceptable for the two residences served.
However, if a future subdivision created a third lct, the City would
require the construction of a 24' wide private road and the gateway
likewise would have to be widened.
4. Although none of the plans indicate it, it is anticipated that the
existing wooden planter and sign posts on either side of the driveway
will be removed.
5. The plan submitted does not clarify whether any light fixture is
proposed to be integrated into the monuments.
Discussion -
These entryway gates are apparently becoming quite popular, both
from the standpoint of security that they provide as well as being a
decorative fixture.
Staff would note for the record that if these gate posts were located
more than 30' from the front lot line, they would be considered as an
accessory structure and there would be no need for a variance. Since the
applicants wish to construct the gateway 5' from the side lot line and
about 14' from the defined rear lot line, the variance is necessary.
Staff would further note that based on the survey, the westerly
monument is partially within the 10' drainage and utility easement along
the property border. If this is considered as a fence structure, the City
would not normally have a problem with a fence on a drainage and utility
easement. However, if this is considered an accessory structure, normally
no structures are allowed in drainage and utility easements, and there is
potential for interference with existing or future utilities to the
property. Perhaps one consideration if the structure is allowed as
proposed, would be requiring a hold harmless agreement in favor of the City
and other utility companies which would have occasion to use the easement,
so that they would not be responsible for any damage that they do to the
structure within the 10' easement.
The applicant has suggested that the hardship for this application is
that the maximum allowable height by ordinance of 3�' is not sufficient to
provide the security required by the property owner. It would seem that
the 3h' fence height ordinance was never intended to provide the type of
security that this property owner desires, however, it may •very well be
legitin,ste to erect an imposing barrier to turn away traffic. On the other
hand, one could make the arg•iment that to keep all unwanted or uninvited
persons and traffic off the property, one would need an 8-10' high fence or
wall around the entire property.
Zoning File #1347
October 12, 1988
Page 3 of 3
The alternative to granting -,his variance would be to require that the
structure be located to meet the 10' side setback and 30' rear setback
requirements. To provide the security required, the property owner then
might request that the wing walls be extended at a 3h' height to the
property boundaries. Staff would suggest that the proposed gateway will
not be obtrusive in the neighborhood, and will provide the security
measures required by the property owner without the need for extensive
additional fences or walls.
Staff Recoss~endation -
Staff would recommend approval of the project as proposed, with the
condition that applicant sign a Hold Harmless Agreement in favor of the
City and other potential "utility and drainage easement" users.

Regulation
ISSUE
1. Notificiation to Council of upcoming liquor licnense
renewals.
2. Provide opportunity to discuss possible on -sale conditional
license.
INTRODUCTION - The two liquor licenses within the City are up for
renewal by January 1, 1989. While there have been no problems
over the past year with the off -sale operation, the on -sale
operation has presented problems as outlined in Attachment C.
DISCUSSION - The City has been concerned about violations that
relate to the on -sale business have occurred but had delayed
bringing this matter to the Council because:
A. An expectation that the business was going to be
sold.
B. It may be more appropriate to take action as a
condition of license renewal than as a penalty during
the term of the license.
The incidents that occurred were not charged. The Officer
intervened between the 20 minute "no more consumption" and "30
minutes must be closed" in the first incident. The second
incident was not directly traced to Jimmies and that individual
is no longer employed. Charges were filed against the driver but
not the passenger who worked at Jimmies. It was felt there was
insufficient evidence to charge the owner.
The Council could impose a f i ne on the on-sa le owner fo 1 lowing
the appropriate public hearing for up to $2,000.00 or 60 days.
As an alternative the followinci conditions for the license for
1989 could be imposed given the past concerns:
- "That the applicant is placed on notice that further
potential violations will result in a revocation hearing
without necessarily awaiting adjudication in which these
past issues will be reviewed."
ALTERNATIVES -
1. Table until the December 12, 1988 meeting.
2. Comment on direction regarding the violations.
3. Express an opinion on making no conditions or taking no
action regarding these violations.
RECOMMENDATION - It is recommended that the Council comment on
any conditions that they may feel appropriate for the license and
that they indicate those to the license- holder in advance of the
actual approval of the license.

D.%T7 : November 4, 1988
TO: Mark Bernhardson, City Administrator
FROM: Mel Kilbo, Chief of PolicA
RE: Liquor License -sn je
Prior to issuing a liquor license to Jimmies Lounge, I would like
the Council to please note that Mr. Jimmie Holtz appeared in court
in November, 34187 for a liquor violation which happened it a--ist,
1987. He was found guilty, fined $75, and appeared before L. -uncil
on 12/14/87. He was given a conditional license, putting th. c•.. « r
on notice due to the after hours violation and told the police
department would more closely m.,n-.tor the operation. Please note
in my memo dated 6/15/88, that there was further violation in Jan., 1988
of an after hours violation. Also pease note that in March, 1988,
our office made a DWI arrest. The passenger in this vehicle, a Candy-e
Berg, had just gotten off work from Jimmies Lounge, and it was found
that she also failed the preliminary 'breath tent. We also found in
her possession a glas:5 containing what ter c�-�lieved to be an alcoholic
beverage. At a minimum, it was a violation for her to be car4-yina a
container from the Lounge.
I would request the City review t.hi3 -iatter.
DATE: June 15, 1988
TO: Mark Bernhardson, City Administrator �r T
FROM: Mel Kilbo, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Jimmies, Inc.
On 8/6/87, Jimmies, Inc. was charged under section 4.08 subd. 1
for consuming after pours, subd. 2 for removal of containers
from the premises, subd. 3 for being open after normal closing
hours. On 8/31/87, it was referred for formal complaint. On
10/27/87 he pled not guilty. On 11/24/87 in front of Judge
Adzik, Jimmie Holtz pled guilty and was found guilty, fined
$300.00 with $225 stayed with a st.-y of 365 days, no same or
similar violations. In effect, he paid only a $75 fine.
On 1/24/8r, Officer 1'.:r4 Erickson observed, at 1:25 a.m. , a
number of people stil' in Jimmies. All the lights were turned
on low, the TV's were still on, about 8 to 10 people at the bar
still had drinks. The female bartender stated "I've been try-
ing to close". The c--:icer questioned the validity of her _-
mark in that the lights were still low and the TV's still n.
The people did leave because of the officer's arrival. ''".iis is
a violation of section 4..; k subd. 3, closina hours. Orono stat-
W f-s states that they are to close at 1:00 a.m..
On '24/88, Officer English of our Department made an arrest at
Co. Road 15 and Kings Road in Spring Park of a female. She was
asked where she was coming from at 12:10 a.m. She stated she
had just picked up her friend, Kandis Berg, at Jimmies Bar. The
driver was arrested for DWI. Kandis Berg, the passenger and em-
ployee of Jimmies, was asked to blow into a portable breath test-
ing device to see if she could drive the vehicle. She blew a
fail on the device. In checking the right hand passenger side
of the v..hicle, a clear glass was found beneath the front edge
of the front seat, on the floor, with an odor consistent with
that of an alcoholic beverage. The driver indicated that' the
glass in the vehicle was the one that kandis Berg had been drink-
ing from and she believed that Ms. Berg he-' brought it with her
from Jimmies when she picked her up and that she had had no alco-
hol in the vehicle before. It is believeu that Kandis Berg. the
bartender, removed a container from Jimmies in violation of sec-
tion 4.08 subd. 2, removal of a container from the premises.
I suggest that this matter be brought to the Council's attention
for possible 1 se action against Ji=.,ies .

H. Revocation or Suspension. The Council may, in
Its sole discretion and for any reasonable cause, revoke, or sus-

license upon conviction of any licensee or agent or employee of a
licensee for violating any law relating to the sale or possession
of non -intoxicating malt liquor, wine or liquor upon premises of
the licensee, or if such revocation is mandatory by Statute. If it
shall be made to appear at the hearing thereon that such violation
was not willfil, the Council may order suspension; provided, that
revocation shall be ordered upon the third such violation or
offense. No suspension or revocation shall take effect until the
licensee has been afforded an opportunity for a hearing before the
Council, a committee of the Council, or a hearing examiner, as may
be determined by the Council in action calling the hearing. Such
hearing shall be called by the Council upon written notice to the
licensee served in person or by certified mail not less than
fifteen nor more than thirty days prior to the hearing date,
stating the time, place and purpose thereof. As additional
restrictions or regulations on licensees under this Chapter, and in
addition to grounds for revocation or suspension stated in the City
ORONO CC
M
Code or Statute, the following shall also be grounds for such
action: (1) that the licensee suffered or permitted illegal acts
upon licensed premises unrelated to the sale of non -intoxicating
malt liquor, wine or liquor; (2) that the licensee had knowledge of
such illegal acts upon licensed premises, but failed to report the
same to police; (3) that the licensee failed or refused to

acts upon licensed premises; or, (4) that the activities of the

beneficially for others. It is the duty of each corporate licensee
to notify the City Clerk of any change in legal ownership, or
beneficial interest in such corporation or in such shares. Any
change in the ownership or beneficial interest in the shares
entitled to be voted at a meeting of the shareholders of a
corporate licensee, which results in the change of voting control
of the corporation by the persons owning the shares therein, shall
be deemed equivalent to a transfer of the license issued to the
corporation, and any such license shall be revokad thirty days
after any such change in ownership or beneficial interest of shares
unless the Council has been notified of the change in writing and
has approved it by appropriate action. The Council, or any officer
of the City designated by it, may at any reasonable time examine
the stock transfer records and minute books of any corporate
licensee in order to verify and identify the shareholders, and the
Council or its designated officer may examine the bu-iness records
of any other licensee to the extent necessary to disclose the
interest which persons other than the licensee have in the licensed
business. The Council may revoke any license issued upon its
determination that a change of ownership of shares in a corporate
licensee or any change of ownership of any interest in the business
of any other licensee has actually resulted in the change of
control of the licensed business so as materially to affect the
integrity and character of its management and its operation, but no
such action shall be taken until after a hearing by the Council on
notice to the licensee.
Subd. 5. Duplicate Licenses. Duplicates of all original

reputation, and other attributes, could qualify individually as a
licensee. If such manager or agent ceases to be a resident of the
City or ceases to act in such capacity for the licensee without
appointment of a successor, the license issued pursuant to such
appointment shall be subject to revocation or suspension.

C. DNR Letter Dated
ISSUE - Presentation of information regarding progress on County
RoRo—c-51.
INTRODUCTION - At the Council's September 26, 1988 Council
meeting the issue of safety of County Road 51 was discussed.
Since that time the County has indicated their willingness to
work with the City. Staff met with Dennis Hanson of Hennepin
County Transporation to review alternatives on October 25, 1988.
Subsequent to that September meeting the City has received a
letter from Lake Minnetonka Conservation District expressing
their opinion on the matter together with DNR indicating that
safety of parking is the primary issue (however they still feel
that there need to be a select number of spots around the lake
and it is up to the Cities and other agencies to insure that they
are provided.)
DISCUSSION - .At our meeting with Mr. Dennis Hanson of Hennepin
County on October 25, 1988, the City laid out the following items
for exploration:
- Crosswalks
- Pedestrian safety zone
- Car spacing
- Restriping of the road
- Expanded shoulder
- Curbing
- Flashing pedestrian lights
- Narrow drive lanes
- Speed limit change
- Lengthening No Passing lane
- Access dock
The County is exploring these and will bring back recommended
alternatives and options that they may see as feasible on that
stretch of the road. It was hoped that they will be back to us
by this time for further communication at this meeting, but it is
not anticipated that we will see those until the week of 11/14.
The City, when the alternatives are developed, will send a list
of those alternatives to all the residents along County Road 51
to appear at the discussion of this item.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Accept the information.
2. Make any further comments Council wants to make.
3. Take no action.
RECOMMENDATION - It is recommended that the Council accept the
information presented making any further comments that they may
desire regarding this item and table it to the December 12, 1988
Council meeting.
PROPOSED MOTION - Moved by seconded by _, that the Council
accepts the information and tables discussion on the item until

I am enclosing copies of all pertinent documents that have been
generated to date, regarding the parking issue.
Some of you received some of these papers earlier. However, I
had only randomly selected a few households based on the number
of available copies I had made at the time. That was done on
short notice, when I realized how quickly the City had placed the
matter on the Council Agenda.
Let me explain how I came to act on this matter by m�r.-�elf.
I first called Mr. Bernhardson in late summer to inquire about
whether there was any history of this issue coming before the
Council or the City staff. He was kind enough to put together a
rather bulky packet of materials that had accumulated from pre-
vious governmental activity on the matter.
That was the first that I knew of a petition that was filed by
many of you in 1985.
After reviewing the materials provided me, I was at a loss to
understand why nothing further was done whether through a
failure of City's elected or staff officials, and/or the County's
elected or staff officials. Given the governmental political
sensitivities towards lakeshore issues, I did not presume the
fault was with any particular official, group of officials, or a
specific governmental entity. That is why I have addressed my
letters expressing concern to everyone who is in a position of
potential power.
In any event, Mr. Bernhardson expressed a geniune interest and
willingness to reopen and reconsider the issue, and was partic-
ularly receptive to do so on an accelerated time table, while the
road is being torn apart for sewer construction.
with this background, let me state that my letters to govern-
mental officials are intended to only express my point of view,
which may differ in perspective from your own. I do not purport
to know the right answers or to serve as a group spokesman. My
only intent is to raise some thought provoking suggestions for
anyone interested and willing to listen and hopefully, in a
position to respond and act.
I fell- the urgency of having the issue promptly raised and con-
sidered regardless of whether there is a neighborhood consensus
of the ,-? or preferable solution, or what that consensus might
be.
In that regard, I personally think the best solution should come
from persons with expertise in traffic safety, vis a vie private
citizens, elected officials, or other government employees with
areas of expertise that are elsewhere.
Please be assured that I do not however, feel your input or
assistance is unwelcome or would not be helpful. Time con-
straints made any sort of organizational effort impractical.
My purpose in sending you these materials is primarily to keep
you informed of what is going on since I am in the best position
to do so. Since the City obviously did not endeavor to notify me
of the petition that was filed in 1985, I want to make sure that
everyone who is affected by any action that is taken at least has
the opportunity to know of what is taking place and can make a
conscious choice whether to offer suggestions, input or otherwise
remain non-involved.
If you have any questions or suggestions, for me, it is easiest
to catch me at work or leave me a message at work. Since I will
obviously have something to say for myself in any future public
meetings, I would certainly welcome any thoughts you may have for
me to consider, if you are unable or otherwise not desirous of
personally attending.

Dear Mr. Gerhardson:
The purpose of this letter is to request your approval for direct
access from our lot (Lot 3, Block 1, Summit Station) to Long Lake
Road.
The attached Surveyor's Certificate drawings show how we propose
to cut the access.
We believe that access from the property onto Old Long Lake road
would not cause any additional traffic or safety risk. To the
contrary, the cut as we propose would facilitate the entry to the
street in a forward motion.
Please contact me at my home, 476-0326, or office, 476-2002.

Subject: Curb Cut Request - 490 Old Long Lake Road
Mr. Larry Wiken is currently in the process of constructing
a home at 490 Old Long Lake Road. The above address is in the
Herrick Circle subdivision and is Lot 3, Block 1, Summit Station.
Mr. Wiken is requesting a driveway curb cut on to Long Lake Road.
The current ordinance allows one curb cut per lot.
I have advised Mr. Wiken that the information in our files
indicates that all lots on Herrick Circle will access to/from
Herrick Circle.
Mr. Wiken states that traf f is f low as he has proposed wi 11
improve regarding safety concerns.
It is my opinion that there is room on the property to
construct a turn -around, therefore allowing forward motion
-� entering/existing Herrick Circle/Old Long Lake Road.
RECOMMENDATION - To deny access to/from Old Long Lake Road from
residence at 490 Old Long Lake Road and to direct Mr. Wiken to
construct access to Herrick Circle.

Circle. Ayes , nays

Forwarded recommending denial. This was platted as a PRD and so that
setbacks were taken into account in the commons area between lots,
there is an additional issue if Council desires to approve which is the
owners right to cross the commons area with a driveway.

A RESOLUTION DECLARING
WESTONKA SENIOR CITIZENS FOUNDATION DAY
NOVEMBER 25, 1988
WHEREAS, we need to realize now, more than ever, what a
resource our older Americans are, and that the abilities of older
Americans to invest our country with their knowledge, creativity
and experience cannot be denied; and
WHEREAS, senior centers offer valuable service to the
community in providing our senior citizens the benefits of good
fellowship, encouragement and support, the opportunity to help
themselves and each other, and offering service of access to
community services as needed; and
WHEREAS, the present membership of Westonka Senior
Citizens, Inc. realizes the insecurity of municipal, state and
federal funding for senior centers, and the importance of
providing a self-sustaining source for future generations of
Westonka area senior citizens;
THEREFORE, we hereby proclaim November 25, 1988 as
Westonka Senior Citizens Foundation Day in our community, and
urge the initiation of a united effort on the part of the entire
community to establish a Westonka Senior Citizens Foundation by
which the funds will perpetuate the services to those future
older citizens to promote independence and enhance the quality of
their lives.

Lear Mayor Grabek and City Council Members:
As you know, our Westonka Senior Center has been in existence almost
seven ye_ara. During that time, we have seen the growth of participating
senior c;.tizens and the increasing need for more service. The projection
for the year 2015 is that these numbers of persons over 65 will more than
double. We have been very appreciative of the financial support we have
received from our four sponsoring Cities of Mound, Spring Park, Orono and
Minnetrista. We also realize that the demands on your budgets can only be
strained so far.
Two years ago we met with your City Manager and the other Cities' Managers
and promised to come up with an idea for sustaining funds.
We have done this! We have formed Lhe Westonka Senior Citizens Foundation
with the help of many of our community friends. We are attempting to ac-
cumulate a large fund frum which the interest will be used to perpetuate
the -uality services to the elderly of i 0v Wr:;tonka area.
We will be kicking off our campaign on October 23rd by having the Founda-
tion dedicated at all our local churches on that day. We are asking you
to proclaim that day as Vestonka Senior Citizens Foundation Day.
Enclosed is the copy of the prozlamation.
Thank you again for your support in the past and present and let us hope
that with the funds collected, the future fundine will be secure.
Sincerely,
Doris LeGault

SUBJECT: Ordinance Amendment - Dangerous Weapons and Articles
Attachments: A. Revised Draft Ordinance
B. Ordinance 9.10 and Subsequent Amendments
ISSUE
1. Consideration of a recodified revision of the existing
ordinance plus subsequent am,- '*s to place in more readable
form the City's ordinance re*I langerous weapons.
2. Addition of a section to al_.,.v the use of B-B guns for the
control of pests when they become a demonstrated nuisance in an
area of the City for up to 120 days.
INTRODUCTION - Because of the numerous amen.3ments that have been
made since the codification of this section of the ordinance it
was felt appropriate that the ordinance be revised to make a more
readable version of it.
DISCUSSION - The only substantive changes are:
a.) Permitting the use of B-B gun for pest control.
There are times when pests in residential areas can
cause problems to a person's gardens and use of the B-B
gun under controlled circumstances could be a way of
alleviating the problem when other ways GZ elimination
have been exhausted.
b.) Permit requirement for starting guns.

RE: Step Raise - Officer Charles Schauss
Officer Schauss was employed by the Orono Police Department on
10/26/87. Since that time, he has made an enormous impression
with the City of Spring Park by his personal contact with the
city clerk and employees of the City of Spring Park. He has
handled "routine matters" in a very caring atmosphere and attitude.
He takes pride in his public relation contacts. He has received
several commendations from citizens who commented on his
consideration of their problems.
Therefore, I request Officer Charles Schauss be raised to the
one year rate of $12.129 (1987 contract rate) from the previous
6 month rate of $10.613 hourly (1987 contract rate). This is

TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Mark E. Bernhardson, City Administrate,
DATB: November 1, 1988
SUBJRCT: Administrator's Information
CRYSTAL BAY ROAD - Planning Commission tabled consideration of
the City ppl3cation on this matter until the November 21, 1988
Planning Commission meeting. Staff did meet, out on the site,
with the residents on Friday, October 21, 1988 t, discuss their
desires as a result of the project. The direction that they
would like undertaken involves moving the wall out three feet
from the existing edge of the road, which will in order to have
an appropriate slope lead to several feet of exposed wooden wall -
four to five feet along the bank. This not only adds to the
length of the the wall to be improved, but also for the need for
additional structural strength. Staff is presently reviewing
this package as it will cost substantially more together with
leaving exposed wooden walls, which the prior package would not.
_1 WOODHILL ROAD - NSP has finally moved their wires and the City
Was gotten Northwestern Bell to remove their poles. It is
anticipated the final course can be placed on the road by
November 10th.
COUNTY ROAD 15 - With good weather, construction has continued to
proce— ewe sidewalks along County Road 15 in Orono. With
approximately 60% of the sidewalks now installed. The street
lights have all been installed and will be put in service within
the next two weeks. An initial test of each of those lights
results in having them on for a complete 72 hour period so that
if you notice lights on during the daytime it is part of the
test. Painting of the lights will probably wait until the
spring.
ORONO/MINNETONRA BEACH INTERCEPTOR - The good weather has
continued to allow this project to go on, but it is not
anticipated that the road will be opened the week of November
7th.
1950 SHORELINE DRIVE - The City again is pursuing the hazardous
building proceeding against the property owner for the two cabins
on the back. It is anticipated that the applicant will come back
and request that they be allowed to hookup to the two units at
$5,500 per unit. This would be brought forward to the Council,
however, it would be staff's recommendation that if the two
J cabins were allowed to be hooked up that they be required to pay
the full charge on eazh one which in the ordinance is presently
$9,375.
BIG ISLAND VETERANS CAMP - Just to apprise you of the fact that
per a recent conversation with Al Wisdorf and a member of staff, N
he confirmed that the Camp use closed after Labor Day. Wisdorf
has asked to schedule a meeting with Building and Zoning staff
members to discuss on "early" preparation for the "Tenting"
conditional use permit. Staff has scheduled a meeting for
Wednesday, November 9, 1988 at 10:00 A.M, at the City offices.
Staff will also question Wisdorf as to the need to conduct
additional "clean-up" activities during the winter months.
CROSS WALK PETITION/COUNTY-MTC RESPONSE - The City still is
await ng a response from the MTC as to where they are going to
put the bus shelter. Once that has been decided the City will
work with the County to actually locate the cross -walk, taking
into account the petition that was previously submitted by the
neighbors.
SCULPTURE UNVEILING - LIVINGSTON TOWER PARK - While installed,
the Park Commission at their November 1, 1980 meeting decided to
have the formal unveiling in the spring.

LMCD Board Minutes
October 26, 1988
budget total for Personal Services should read $68,483, not $18,483.
The Consulting Services disbursement continues above budget, the
Arndorfer contract being paid from this account. Revenue and
disbursement summaries for the "Save the Lake Fund" were reviewed.
Reese moved, Boswinkel seconded that the report for the quarter ended
9-30-88 be accepted as presented. The motion carried unanimously.

reported. Kraemer moved, Raecop seconded that the Financial Condition
Report for the month ended 9-30-88 be accepted as presented. The
motion carried unanimously.

tions. The motion carried unanimously.
C. STANDING COMMITTEES
1. Water Structures A Environment
a) Approval of Action Report of 10-8-88. Chair Raecop summarized
the minutes of the action report. Boswinkel moved, Cochran
seconded that the action report be accepted as presented, with
the minutes reflecting Mary Bjorlin, Tooke Bay, as present. The
motion carried unanimously.
b) Nelson Variance Application Request. The variance application
request from Ralph A. Nelson, 60 Brentwood Av., Tonka Bay, was
presented for Board consideration. Based upon the information
presented at the committee's meeting, it had recommended that the
variance be denied as a result of Nelson not demonstrating hard-
ship. James Duvick, co-owner of Lot 39 immediately west of
Nelson's lot, was present to express his willingness and that of
his parter, Charles Holmes, to review the mutual difficulties each
lot owner has experienced in order to arrive at a mutually agree-
able solution. The Executive Director presented a summary from
information gathered at the request of Ralph Nelson and in conver-
sation with both Duvick and Holmes wherein the affected parties
have agreed verbally to meet and attempt to reach a solution under
the LMCD Code $2.01, Subd. 3, Common Use of Adjacent Dock Use Area
LMCD Board Minutes
October 26, 1988
Provisions. Duvick circulated a photo showing the Nelson boat
as extending significantly into their dock -use -area. For the
record it is noted that the Holmes-Duvick property does not contain
a residence while the Nelson property does. Duvick explained that
they do have an interest in applying for a dredging permit which
will assist all parties in their water access. At the invitation
of Rascop, Nelson did state that he preferred that the variance
application not be withdrawn at this time, requesting that it be
delayed until he and his neighbors are able to reach a satisfactory
agreement. Rascop moved, Pillsbury seconded that the Nelson vari-
ance application be held until the next Board meeting. The motion
carried unanimously.
c) Rockvam Deicing Application Request. The committee recommendation
that the Rockvam deicing application be handled as one permit to
include the dock operations at Site 1, 4068-60 Sunset Drive, and
Site 2, 4056 Sunset Drive, and be recommended for approval to the
Board. Boswlnkel moved, Kraemer seconded that the Rockvam deicing
application be accepted as one permit for both sites, and be
approved as recommended. The motion carried unanimously.
d) Deicing Applications for License Renewal. The following deicing
applications have been received as of 10-11-88:
Advance Hachaine Co.
Minnetonka Yacht Club
Anderson, Steve J.
North Shore Drive Marina
Clay Cliffe Homeowners Assn.
Resberg, Paul F.
Crystal Bay Service
Rockvam Boat Yards, Inc.
Curly's Mtka Marina Inc.

Wayzata, City of
Howard's Point Marina
Wayzata Yacht Club
Maxwell Bay Marina, Inc.
Welch, Russell C.
Minnetonka Boat Works (Orono)
Wyer, James I.
Minnetonka Boat Works (Wayz)
In conjunction with these renewal application approvals, it was
noted that the adjoining neighbors would be notified by letter
of their neighbors' intentions to deice. Deicing licenses would
be issued upon passing of inspection of the Code stipulations in
52.09, Subd. 4, items a) through h). Foster moved, Kraemer
seconded that the deicing applications be approved as presented,
licenses subject to inspection and full compliance with the Code
as stipulated. The motion carried nnanlmously.
e) Deicing Annual Application Fee Requirement to Retain ncicing
Statue. The Executive Director reviewed experiences of recent
year, where some deicing applicants have requested to have their
deicing license retained while not conducting a deicing operation
for a given year. The low water has prompted some applicants to
write and say they do not plan to deice this year, but asked that
LMCD Board Minutes
October 26, 1988
their deicing permit be reserved for future years. Two persons
have made this request for 1988-89. Upon recommendation by the
Water Structures Committee, Cochran moved, Rascop seconded that
deicing applicants must make their applications with full fee
payment annually in order to retain their grandfathered deicing
statue. The discussion prompted concern by Directors ranging from
waiving the fee when deicing would not be conducted, to charging
at least a reasonable administrative registration fee. An amend-
ment was offered to charge a $25 administrative fee for this year
only, which would not allow deicing. A prospective applicant,
under these circumstances, could apply later for deicing, paying
the full fees if conditions should so require. The late fee would
not be applicable. This amendment was accepted by Cochran and
Rascop. The motion to allow previous applicants to serve intent
of their not being able to deice by submitting written notification
and the $25 administrative fee was approved as recommended. The
motion carried unanimously.
f) District !boring Area (DMA) Temporary Extensions. The "Dock" Com-
mittee recommendation of authorizing the Executive Director to
permit a DMA temporary extension doubling the DMA distance or to
reach 3' of navigable water whichever is reached first without
creating a navigation hazard was reviewed by the Board. The
Executive Director requested clarification of the distance that
would be referenced in the doubling provision. The distance of
each mooring area is set individually by th- Board based upon the
DMA application and its individual circumstances. tt was also
pointed out that the 3' of navigable water may be inadequate for
certain keel boats. Rascop moved, Boswinkel seconded that the
temporary extension recommendation be referred back to committee.
The motion carried unanimously.
g) Lake Frontage Measurement Code Amendment. This subject was re-
viewed by the "Dock" Committee with a recommendation that staff
develop a Code modification, with legal assistance, taking into
account continuous shoreline, not including islands, using wetland
shorelands. Since the Water Structures Committee, consultant Dave
Arndorfer offered a recommendation to the Lake Use Committee on
30-17-88, recommending that no changes be made in the existing
method of measuring Lake frontages. This was outlined in a letter
provided the Board in advance dated 10-17-88. Arndorfer reasoned
his position:
1) Changes to existing policy end ordinances should be viewed
as interim, in effect, only until the Management Plan is adoped
and implemented. Measurement of Lake frontage will be essen-
tial to three major areas of the master plan: (1) Shoreland
Aesthetics, (2) Lake Access, and (3) Wetlands.
2) We are compiling alternatives for determining boat storage
in the water or on the land that may affect the number of boats
kept in the water at the Lake's shoreline. Four alternative
methods were listed.
LHCD Board Minutes 5 October 26, 1988
3) To the extent allowed by law, we would like to see a link
between the DNR's proposed Shoreland Management Rules and this
LMCD ordinance.
Rascop repeated his objections to the proposed ordinance amendment
as voiced at the earlier committee meeting. He noted that the
proposed amendment would encourage development of am 11 Lake front-
age lots. Lawman moved, Foster seconded to table the Code amend-
ment proposal for further study indefinitely. The motion carried
unanimously.
C. 2. LAKE USE COMMITTEE
a) Approval of Action Report. Pillsbury moved, Foster seconded that
the action report of 10-17-88 be approved as presented. The
motion carried unanimously.
b) Code Amendments
1) 54.02, Subd. 3. Sale of Strong Beer with Hine/Beer Licenses
recommending the addition to the LMCD Code to read "may sell
intoxicating malt liquors at on -sale without an additional
license."
2) 55.28, Subd. 3 recommending to delete language "unless accom-
panied by his parent or legal guardian." -
3) 15.43. Subd. 2. Change reference from 54.122 to 53.01, and
delete language "Authorized to sell intoxicating liquor there."
Cochran moved, Rascop seconded that the three Code amendments be
accepted as recommended, and the attorney instructed to prepare
the appropriate changes. The motion carried unanimously.
c) Liquor License Fixed Investigation Fee Refunds. The Lake Use Com-
mittee recommendation of 10-17-88 recommending refunds where
applicable of the fixed investigation fee for Executive Charters,
and John Lambin were reviewed by Chair Pillsbury. The fee amounts
in the 10-17-88 committee minutes were amended to reflect changes
in assessment of legal fees to each of the two charter applicants
since the committee meeting. A re -review of the fees with the
LMCD attorney resulted in an adjustment in hours for Executive
Charters from 32.1 to 37.35 hours @ $80/hr, or total legal coats
of $2,988.00. Hennepin County Sheriff investigation fees remained
at 3.5 hours @ $23.96/hr for a L. cal of $83.06. Total Executive
Charter investigation fees is $3,071.86, or $71.86 charges in
excess of the investigation fee deposit. John Lambin's fees were
adjusted from 16.05 hours to 16.02 hours @ $80/hr, for a total
of $1,281.60. Hennepin County Sheriff investigation charges of
$297.59 brings the Lambin total to $1,579.19. Upon recommendation
of the Lake Use Committee, and the provisions of Resolution No.
54, establishing liquor license fees for the sale of liquor on
LMCD Board Minutes
October 26, 1988
the Lake, Pillsbury moved, and Rascop seconded that Executive
Charters be billed for the investigation costa in excess of
$3,000.00, totalling $71.86, and that John Lambin be refunded the
balance of the investigation fee totalling $1,420.81. Director
Grathwol requested the record reflect that he has performed pro-
fessional services for John Lambin in the past. The motion
carried, with Grathwol abstaining.
d) County Road 51 Parking Review. Correspondence of 9-27-88 from
David A. Singer, 3520 North Shore Drive, Orono, was review by com-
mittee Chair Pillsbury. The Lake Use Committee concluded its
review with a recommendation that flashing yellow lights with
restricted speeds, suggestion 20 mph during peak Lake use times,
be recommended by the Board to the Orono Police Department and
the Hennepin County Sheriff. Singer was present and addressed
the Board concerning recent communications he has had on the sub-
ject, receiving four different recommendations. Singer noted that
the Hennepin County Transportation Department was reviewing site
lines on County Road 51, and the prospects are possible for the
provision of buffer strips periodically between parking positions.
This would allow 10'-15' openings for pedestrian crossing. Singer
also noted the hazardous situation of debris floating into shore,
glass being broken. He suggested signage at accesses urging people
to avoid using glass containers on the Lake.
Pillsbury moved, poster seconded to approve the Lake Use Committee
recommendations providing flashing yellow warning lights, with
reduced speeds at approximately 20 mph during peak Lake use times,
along the referenced County Road 51 segment north of Crystal Bay,
with recommendation to the Orono Police Department and Hennepin
County Sheriff. The motion carried unanimously.
e) Deposit Refunds. Special events eligible for $100 deposit refunds
upon recommendation of the Lake Use Committee were presented as
follows,
Operation Bass, 9/18, Hendrickson's Access
Shorewood Yacht Club races, 5/28-10/2
Viking Bassmaster of MN, 10/2, North Shore Drive Merino
Doug Dunsheath, parisailing, all summer, Lafayette Bay
Consolidated Races, all summer, Lower Lake
Upper Lake Minnetonka Yacht Club races, all summer, Upper Lake
Pillsbury moved, Bosvinkel seconded that the deposit refunds of
$100 each be approved as recommended. The motion carried
unanimously.
f) Water Patrol Report. Deputy Bill Chandler reviewed his report
to the Lake Use Committee 10-17-88. Chandler added that the Water
Patrol now has eight new snowmobiles for Lake patrol in the 1988-89
winter season. Chandler then presented a draft copy of recommenda-
tions on the winter ordinance publication which was reviewed at
the committee's request by him and the Executive Director. Upon
LMCD Board Minutes
October 26, 1988
a brief review, the Board seeing the draft for the first time,
Rascop moved, Pillsbury seconded that the draft be returned to
the committee for its review and recommendations. The motion
carried unanimously.
g) Winter Ordinance Review Reconsidered. Cochran moved, Boewinkel
seconded to reconsider the previous motion to refer the winter
ordinance draft to the committee in light of the need to prepare
the copy for early December printing. The motion carried
unanimously. Foster made reference to key points in the draft.
The trespass provision should have a safe -guard requiring the
person using another person's property to have written permission
in their possession. Deicing license reference should be
clarified. The "deadman" throttle is incorrect terminology. Under
"Owner Responsibility," spell out that the "minor" is not to drive
unless permitted by an adult. Reference to helmets should identify
the state standard on certified safety helmets. Water skipping
for snowmobiles should be noted as being denied. The decibel limit
should be noted. Motorized vehicles driving from shore to 150'
point distant should maintain speed not exceeding 15 mph until
clear.
Cochran moved, Pillsbury seconded that Deputy Chandler work with
Director Foster in preparing a revised draft for a preliminary
printing draft, subject to LMCD Board approval at its next meeting.
The motion carried unanimously.
h) Resolution 59, Fishing Contest Policy. Item 9, "casting near a
person -occupied dock is to be avoided, and the practice to be
reviewed after the 1988 season," was recommended for Board review
and approval by Committee Chair Pillsbury. While there were no
complaints this past summer according to Deputy Chandler, Rascop
moved, Boswinkel seconded to retain the resolution language through
the 1989 boating season. The motion carried unanimously.
D. SPECIAL COMMITTEES
1. Advisory Comaittee. Boewinkel moved, Cochran seconded that the
committee action report of 10-5-88 be approved as recommended. The
motion carried unanimously.
a) October Progress. Consultant Dave Arndorfer reviewed the Compre-
hensive Plan progress as reported in the 10-5-88 minutes. Subcom-
mittees on Shoreland Protection and Fisheries are bring Set. They
will begin meeting in December. Public meetings in January and
February are being planned. A letter to city mayors was circulated
inviting the appointment of a key city -staff member to serve on
the Shoreland Protection Committee.
b) Metropolitan Council Systew Committee. The first quarterly report
was presented 10-18-88 by Arndorfer, Hurr, and Stroamsen. Rascop,
also in attendance, noted that two commission members, Vin Scully
and Josephine Dunn, offered favorable response to the presentation.
LMCD Board Minutes
October 26, 1988
Eurasian Water Milfoil Task Force Report. Reese reported on a recent
visit to Lake Mendota, Madison, WI, while in the area on business.
This 16,000 acre grouping of five lakes has been dealing with Eurasian
Water Milfoil for some 20 years. It has found harvesting working beet.
One of the five lakes has water conditions favorable to the weed.
Lake Mendota, because of its fast shoreline dropoff, has fewer weeds.
Turbid water in another lake is not conducive to the weed's growth.
Reese pointed out that while Lake Minnetonka's present infestation
is abundant, he is concerned that we don't allow it to become
"colossal." Harvesting appears to be the beat answer in Reese's judg-
ment. It is being done twice a season in the Mendota Chain of Lakes.
Equipment investment is part of the solution, Reese concluded. Le-
Fevere suggested that the LMCD may wish to seek authority from the
legislature to issue bonds for capital acquisitions of harvesting
equipment. Reese will explore methods of raising funds to procure
weed harvesting equipment that conceivably could be in LMCD hands for
use by the summer of 1989.
3. Board Workshop. The Board Workshop held following the Water Structures
Committee meeting 10-18-88 was attended by Hurr, Hoswinkel, Lewman,
Westlund, and Slocum.
a) Legal Service. A consensus was reached to recommend that the Board
seek a request for proposal for LMCD's legal service. LeFevere
requested an opportunity to speak in regards to the recommendation.
LeFevere noted that their firm has represented the LMCD since its
inception in 1969. He personally has handled the civil work for
the past 11 years. His practice is in the area of municipal law
which includes the cities of New Brighton and Brooklyn Center.
He also represents the White Bear Lake Conservation District.
Criminal work has been handled by Skip Lefler the past two years.
Lefler left their office in September. That work is now handled
by Steve Tallen. LeFevere noted that he has had no discussion
with anyone regarding dissatisfaction with his service. He added
he is most willing to discuss changes or concerns the Board might
have regarding their service. There has been no written contract,
the operation being an ongoing service to the LMCD. Reese reported
that he had concerns over the nature of billings and what consti-
tutes a service billing. The Board concluded that clarification
is needed on what the Board's expectations are as to the knowledge
and expertise the legal service should be providing. It was the
Board's unanimous consensus that a dialog be established with the
legal service to promptly determine the mutual expectations.
b) Institutional Readiness Study. As a result of the few members
present at the workshop, no recommendation was made on the institu-
tional readiness study. It was recommended that the subject be
taken up at the next Board Workshop.
E. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S REPORT
1. Priority Keating Exchange Sumwary. The written summary of the Execu-
tive Director's contacts with community, business and government groups
' LMCD Board Minutes 9 October 26, 1988
the past month was circulated among the directors. It was accepted
without comment.
2. Funding for Comprehensive Plan. Since the Legislative Commission on
Minnesota Resources request for a grant in aid funding proposal of
$150,000 in matching funds was turned down September 23, continuing
efforts have been directed towards contacting state lake management
groups as possible partners in a funding plan proposed by Ron Harnack
and Bill Becker, MN URN. This involves a tie-in with a legislative
funding bill the DNR is preparing for the Minnesota Shoreland Rules
implementation. Phone contact and correspondence has been made with
the Arrowhead Regional Development Commission representing the North
Shore Management Board of Lake Superior, Strommen added. In addition,
phone contacts have been made with the White Bear Lake Conservation
District. Broader statewide legislative support for a larger funding
package will benefit more areas with similar needs to the Lake Minne-
tonka Conservation District, Strommen added. Harnack recommended
contacts with legislators begin after the election. Strommen noted
that this funding prospect is a challenge, with any funding approval
only being available July 1, 1989. Arndorfer responded that he would
expect payment of this type to be provided over a two year period at
$75,000 per year. Raecop recommended that the research section of
the University of Minnesota dealing with foundations be contacted for
assistance on foundations supportive of environmental issues. Cargill
was suggested as an organization that could be a likely prospect.
Raecop also noted that the option is still open to negotiate a loan
with the Met Council. Funding for the Comprehensive Plan beyond mid-
year is dependent on additional outside revenue sources according to
the manner in which the budget was established for 1989. Strommen
will keep the Board informed of the funding progress.
UNFINISHED BUSI-ESS
A. MCWD Operating Plan Review. Dave Cochran, former MCWD Board of Managers
member and Chair, circulated the MCWD's Headwaters Contract Structure Man-
agement Policy and Operating Procedures outline for the period 3-1-86 to
3-1-89. Cochran noted that the Policy and Operating Procedures are
specific as to the headwaters control structure at Cray's Bay. He reviewed
the history of its development into the present concrete weir. He urged
Board members to review the stated Management Coals and Operating Proce-
dures. This outline will be reviewed by the MCWD and will be up for public
review amendment and/or adoption next March.
B. Proposed November -December Meeting Schedule. Upon discussion by the Board
the following schedule was agreed upon for November:
7:00 pm, Mon., 16, Advisory Committee, Tonka Bay City Hall
7,30 am, Sat., 19, Water Structures Committee, LMCD HQ.
8:30 am, Mon., 21, Eurasian Water Milfoil Task Force, Freshwater
Foundation
4,30 pm, Mon., 21, Lake Use Committee, LMCD HQ.
7,00 pm, Wed., 30, Board of Directors, Tonka Bay City Hall
LNCD Board Minutes 10 October 26, 1988
The meeting schedule for December was not resolved, suggestion being made
that there may be sufficient business to hold some committee meetings,
including the Board meeting, in December. This will be discussed at the
November Board meeting.
AWOURNM N'r. Pillsbury moved, Lewman seconded that the meeting be adjourned
at 10:19 p.m. The motion carried unanimously.
Submitted by:

TO: Mayor and City Council
PROM: Mark E. Bernhardson, City Administrato a
DATE: November 2, 1988
SUBJECT: Wayzata Comprehensive Plan Amendment - West Lake Street
This memo is written to apprise you that the City of Orono has
received a copy of the Wayzata Comprehensive Plan Amendment
proposal that is presently before the Metropolitan Council.
This is for the area on the west end of their downtown where
County Road 15 crosses the railroad tracks and heads east along
their main street to an area just east of the Depot. A number of
"marginal" buildings are presently there and you may have noticed
that the lumber yard has already been removed. Development
anticipates commercial/office/retail together with some multiple
family housing in that area. (Attachment A shows a conceptual
overview of the area's possible development).
While the plan will generate more square footage and may
eventually mean more traffic that may have an impact on County
Road 15 to the west in Orono, it appears that the land uses do
not have a direct impact on abutting Orono residents as they are
substantially separated from Orono by County Road 15 and the
Burlington Northern tracks.
Other issues are as follows:
A. Transportation - While increasing the amount of
traff c, the -Plan he plan does realign the intersection of
County Road 15 and West Lake Street at the railroad
tracks to make a much safer intersection design than
presently exists. Additionally this end is oriented
more towards auto traffic and will be a four lane
configuration narrowing down to a two lane as County
Road 15 goes west. The area to the east will remain a
two lane configuration.
B. Tax Increment FinancnA - To the extent that there
is tax increment financing undertaken in this area, it
may have an impact on Wayzata school district residents
in Orono. This would be a negative effect during the
term of the district and potentially a positive effect
after that.
C. Sewer Capacity - While this will increase the demand
for sewer, it is an issue that has not been
substantially addressed in the plan and we are presently
awaiting the separate sewer study to determine what, if
any, incremental difference this will have on the
Wayzata pump station and its impact on Orono.
The review period for this requires comments by affected
municipalities to be submitted by late December. For the
Metropolitan Council review the two issues of note would be the
transportation and sewer capacity issues. At the present time
based on the review the City would note its generally positive
reaction to the transportation improvement and comment on the
sewer capacity once there is better information.
Additionally as this is a commercial revitalization plan there
are some elements and ideas in the plan that may serve
to be instructive both in the positive and negative sense as we
look at the Navarre redevelopment area.
Should you desire to review a copy, please feel free to contact
Jeanne Mabusth. It would be appreciated that any comments you
may have be given to staff by November 28, 1988.

CLASS III PHRLIMINAPY SUBDIVISION
PUBLIC HEARING 7:35 - 8:35
The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were
duly noted.
The applicants' representative, Mr. James Krautkrewer, was
present.
Zoning Administrator Mabusth explained that this application
1 solved a 30 Lot subdivision of a 36.7 acre parcel. There are
currently 5 separate owners of this property: Palmers, Valek,
Sollner, Hawkinson, and O. Larry Lee/Yorktown Development.
Mabusth went on to say that Lots 5, 6 and 10 require a lot width
variance. Lot 11 on Tonkaview will require a lot area variance.
Kelley asked what the lot width standard was? Mabusth replied
140' must be met to the rear of the front yard setlack line which
is 35' in from the street. The existing house on Lot 9 should be
shown on the plat in order to confirm that the setbacks are met
from the new division lines. A through road is being proposed
from Tonkaview to west Branch Road. The property will be sewered
but municipal water is not availabl=. The developers will be
responsible for providing municipal services to the property, as
well as the road.
Planning Commission member Johnson asked if the road on the
east side by west Branch was located on half of each lot line.
Mabusth confirmed that and added that the road had already been
platted with previous subdivisions.
Mabusth 'ained that there are certain vacations proposed
with app. tion. The City's standards have changed in that
the my „sks for roadways to be 50 feet in width. The
exi . oad is 60' in width and the City will ask for a
redo. It may be more appropriate to vacate the entire road
and p— rn the new road at the 50' width. The applicant is
proposing to vacate a portion of Highview Lane, as well as a
10' alley that exteids along the north lot lines of lots within
the b•:rquist-Wicklund Addition. ;:hat runs along Tonkaview.
The City has explored the possibility of a future access

ZONING FILE 81388-0. LBRRY LEE CONTINUED
corridor being platted to the Morgart property. There is
currently a connection with Highview Lane, but due to steep
grades and the potential of major tree removal, this would not be
a practical access. Mabusth explained a proposal submitted by
the City Engineer for an access. Mabusth observed that due to
the alignment of the property lines and the major wetlands, this
option may not be acceptable. Chairman Kelley inquired as to
whether a rezoning would be necessary for the two northern lots?
Mabusth responded that the property would not be rezoned.
Mr. Krautkremer began his presentation by providing a bit of
history regarding the proposed subdivision. He said that working
with all of the property owners and developing the area as a
whole, was a much better approach than attempting development a
parcel at a time. Kelley asked about the Hoskin subdivision
application. Mr. Krautkremer stated that he also represented Mr.
Soskin. Kelley suggested that the Hoskin matter be included with
the O. Larry Lee matter when it is next presented. Mr.
Krautkremer explained that his intention was -o do that.
Mr. Krautkremer said that he had seen the house plans
proposed for one of the lots. He described the house as
"fabulous' and added that all homes to be built in the area would
enhance the surroundings and topography. He said that he had
communicated with many of the adjacent property owners and
apprised them of the development proposals. Mabusth interjected
that at this time, the major concern of the neighboring
properties and the City was drainage.
Mabusth apprised the Planning Commission and concerned
neighbors of the the current drainage pattern. Mabusth explained
that the construction of the road would redirect the drainage so
it would flow between the shared lot lines of Lot 6 and 7 and up
to the roadway to a drainage ditch located o' Lot 1 of the Hoskin
property. Kelley asked if the runoff would 'low through nip"ig
or a Swale? Mabusth ans, .red that it would flow throu�.: pipes.
Mr. Krautkremer added t.at the size of the piping would be
determined at a later time. Krautkremer further advised that
there was a retention pond that would be expanded to handle the
runoff. Mr. Valek, one of the property owners, had indicated
that the pond would be an amenity for the properties.
Mr. William Bull, a property owner to the south, expressed
his concerns over the proposed drainage. He explained that the
proposed area was very low and had a tendancy to have 8 to 12
inches of water every Spring. Kelley asked where the water
drained from that area. Mr. Bull said that currently, it did not
drain anywhere. Mr. Bull added that in previous years, from the
middle of his property to the back property line and 50' on the
other side of his property, there is a pond. Mr. Krautkremer
addressed this concern by saying that he would be willing to work
with Mr. Bull.
MINUSES OF THE PLBNNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING FILE #1348-0. LRRRY LEE CONTINUED
Kelley asked where the storm pipe would run. Mabusth
explained that it would run up the roadway to Lot 1 of the Soskin
property. Mr. Krautkremer stated that the water would then run
across a form of riprap, to prevent erosion, and continue along
to the present drainage area. Kelley asked how the drainageway
would be protected downstream? Krautkremer replied that the
water that drains on the west side of street would be absorbed by
the grassed yards on the properties once they are developed, as
now the ground is bare with no ground cover. The size of the
pond and piping would be adequate to handle the 100-year storm.
Mabusth pointed out that both drainage pipes would run into a
drainage swale on the Hennessy property. It would then go into
the Wood's property and would come out near the Schultz property.
The City is proposing to re -direct drainage to the northeast
through a designated wetlands. The developer will be asked to
install a storm sewer along the west side of Wildhurst Trail to
the intersection of the Cronstrom's driveway. From that
location, the drainage will run into the wetlands within the
Cronstrom property and will eventually drain into Forest Lake.
The Minnehaha Creek Watershed District will be reviewing the
drainage proposals to determine the impact upon the surrounding
areas.
Planning Commission member Bellows expressed her concern
about the severe slopes existing over 75 to 80 percent of the
proposed site. She said that the slopes would not only create a
problem for drainage, but also for building houses, driveways,
roads, etc. She added that she had great reservations about the
application because of the extreme sensitivity of the area.
Kelley concurred. Mabusth said that once the hydraulic
information was received the issues of slopes and runoff could be
better reviewed.
Mr. Terry Pate, 1131 Wildhurst Trail, disagreed that sod
and other developing would decrease the amount of runoff. Ms.
Pam wood was concerned about affected persons in the area not
receiving information from the City or the Developers of the
proposal. She stated that the development of the area was being
dora. little by little, as opposed to comprene.,sively. Kelley
suggested that a meeting be held between the Developers and all
of the property owners whose property may be impacted by the
development of this area. Ms. wood agreed. Planning Commission
member Cohen asked how many lots in total were being proposed?
Mabusth stated that there would be 37 lots, including the Soskin
development.
Chairman Kelley commended Mr. Krautkremer on his efforts to
deal with all of the property owners. It could have taken years
to have each separate property owner come forth with their
individual subdivision proposals. He reminded everyone that
there would be no rezoning required and that the properties would
he sewered. He added that this areas was going to be developed
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING PILE i134". LARRY LEE CONTINUED
sooner or later. He agreed that the expressed concerns were
valid and further planning and review was required. Mr. Pate
inquired as to whether he had any input as to the water running
over his property. Planning Commission member Johnson told him
that what was already running through his property could not be
changed.
It was moved by Planning Commission member Cohen, seconded
by Planning Commission member Kelley, to table this matter, with
the recommendation that the applicant spend time consulting with
the neighborhood before the application is presented again to the
Planning Commission. Mabusth suggested that the other concerned
parties who were present at the meeting be allowed to
express their concerns.
Ms. Joan Voit, 4490 Forest Lake Landing, stated that her
number one concern was runoff. The other concern she had was the
possibility of Highview Road being vacated and increased traffic
on Wildhurst Trail. Mr. Jerry Dolezal, 4650 Tonkaview Lane,
asked whether a financial determination had been discussed. Ms.
Karen Heit, 1153 Elmwood Avenue, suggested that all persons
residing on Forest Lake be notified of the Developer/concerned
parties meeting. Mr. Lvle Rahn, 1146 Wildhurst Trail, indicated
that he would like more detailed information pertaining to the
drainage. Ms. Kathy Sawicki, 4510 North Shore Drive, was
concerned about the quality of the runoff and its impact on
Forest Lake. Mr. Steven Valek, 4720 Tonkaview Lane, addressed
the issue of drainage. He said most of the runoff already
exists, and that it will continue to run whether there is any
development in that area or not. He believed that placing sod in
the area would help alleviate some of the drainage. Mr. William
Bull, 4690 Tonkaview Lane, said he would be the corner lot on
Tonkaview and Garden. His concern involved the need to have a
through road all the way to the golf course. Mr. Gary Welsh,
1214"Wildhurst Trail, said that there would be significant
discussions involving this subdivision. He believed that storm
sewers were a larger issue than sewers. He said that he gets mud
and quite a bit of runoff across his lawn already. He observed
that in some cases, comprehensive development would not prove as
beneficial as piecemeal development. He also mentioned the fact
that his wife was denied the request to take information
pertaining to this application out of the City offices prior to
the Planning Commission meeting. Mr. Mike Kelley, 4735 Tonkaview
Lane, questioned what would happen if the determinations made
from the hydrology reports were wrong? He further asked how the
City was going to deal with the existing problems of the lift
station, in any event? He added that he would like to see the
covenants or building criteria that were going to be enforced.
Chairman Kelley asked why this property could not be
developed under the guidelines of a PRD? Zoning Administrato_
Mabusth stated that may be possible and she would further
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING PILE 41348-0. LARRY LEE CONTINUED
investigate that possibility with the developer but that it is
her understanding that the developer wants to develop the
property as a conventional plat.
Mr. Bull enlightened the Planning Commission that there was
an area near his property that was a favorite party area. He
believed that developing the area would put an end to the
loitering and partying.
Kelley thanked the neighbors for attending the meeting and
sharing their concerns. He suggested that a person from the
City, as well as a Planning Commission member, attend the meeting
of the Developers and the concerned parties.
Planning Commission member Brown observed that there was one
lot in the proposed development that was under an acre. Kelley
noted his observation. Motion, Ayes=7, Nays=O, Motion passed.
CITY OF ORONO
CRYSTAL BAY ROAD
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT/VARIANCE
SECOND REVIEW
There were many res+.dents from the Crystal Bay Road
neighborhood present for this matter.
Chairman Kelley began by reading a letter that had been
received from the City of Minnetonka Beach. The letter stated
that Minnetonka Beach was opposed to the closing of Crystal Bay
Road. Kelley added that this matter was not as much a planning
issue as it was merely an application to repair damage to the
road.
Zoning Administrator Mabusth corrected the statement in the
staff memo that guard posts would be installed rather than a
guard rail.
Mr. Duwayne Schibilla expressed his confusion over where
exactly the posts would be placed. City Engineer Cook stated
that he did not know exactly where the posts would be installed,
it would depend upon where the cave-ins occurred. Gerhardson
added that it would be in the areas where blacktop has b,'�
washed away. Cook stated that the original intent was Lo
preserve Crystal Bay Road so it would not fail any more than it
already had. Cook added that there was approximately 60 to 80
posts and they would sit approximately 2' off of the road.
Planking would be installed between the road and the bank, and
then sand would be filled in. There would be anywhere from 3' to
6' left exposed toward the lake until the property owner restore
the bank. The need for posts would only be in severe areas,
where there was a considerable slide that took out the bank up to
the edge of the blacktop.
NINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
CITY OF ORONO/CRYSTAL BAY ROAD CONTINUED
Public Works Director Gerhardson explained that the only
purpose of the posts is to serve as a notifier that the bank is
gone on the other side.
Mr. Lo Frano suggested that it may be best for this matter
to be tied in with the issue of closing the road. He then
questioned whether or not there was any validity to the City of
Minnetonka Beach's claim that insurance rates would increase for
the residents of Crystal Bay Road due to limited fire access?
Kelley explained that he could not and would not address that
issue. The only fact to be considered is that Minnetonka Beach
had indicated that they wanted the Road to remain open.
Ms. Leesa Anderson explained, in her opinion, the way that
Minnetonka Beach arrived at the conclusion that Crystal Bay Road
should be closed. Ms. Lorraine Moss asked for clarification as
to where the Road was proposed to end.
It was moved by Planning Commission member Cohen, seconded
by Planning Commission member Hanson, to recommend approval of
this application. Mr. Tim Schupp asked for clarification of the
proposal. City Engineer Cook explained the proposal again.
Bellows stated that she was confused as to why the residents had
concerns about the City correcting a hazardous situation. She
asked what their specific concerns were. Mr. Lee Erger said his
concern involved the original proposal to place a guardrail along
the edge of the Road. He added that he has had a snow fence in
front of his residence for over a year. There was confusion as to
how much repair work the City intended to do. Mabusth
interjected that the City was just going to repair the roadbed.
The repair and resoration of the bank would need to be done by
the individual homeowner. Bellows asked if someone could show
the residents exactly where the repair would take place? City
Engineer Cook stated that would have to be done in the field.
Kelley suggested that before this matter went before the City
Council that the City Engineer and City staff marked where the
repairs would be done.
Cohen withdrew his Motion, Hanson withdrew his second. It
was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning Commission
member Cohen, to table this matter until the residents and the
City got together and marked the spots where the repair work
would be done. Kellev notified the residents that they would
need to get a conditional use permit for the fill they would need
to restore their banks. Mr. Ritchie Anderson asked if the City
could send out another letter indicating their intention. Ms.
Leesa Anderson pointed out the fact that sewer problems have been
created due to the disrepair of the Road Mr. Schibilla stated
that they just had their sewer line routed out and had been told
that they were out of alignment with the main line. Motion,
Ayes=7, Nays=O, Motion passed.

SECOND REVIEW
The applicant was present for this matter.
Zoning Administrator Mabusth explained that this matter had
been previously review by the Planning Commission. At that time,
direction was given to have the City engineer and staff meet on
Mr. Nelson's property to determine the best course of action to
take. It was determined that allowing the pond with underlining
to remain, but the fabric under the landscaping would need to be
removed. The path of crushed rock with underlying fabric will
also be allowed to remain, as it facilitates drainage and
prevents ruther erosion.
Mr. Nelson stated that he totally agreed with staff's
recommendations.
It was moved by Planning Commission member Cohen, seconded
by Planning Commission member Bellows, to recommend approval of
11309, per staff's recommendations and conditions. Motion,
Ayes-7, Nays=0, Motion passed.

VARIANCE/Rd WMW BACK TO
PLANNING COMMISSION BY COUNCIL
Mrs. Purdy was present for this matter.
Assistant Planning c Zoning Administrator Gaffron explained
that the Purdys had revised their application as recommended by
the Planning Commission. The addition was now being proposed for
the side of the existing house and would not encroach any farther
toward the lake. The Purdys currently have a 160 s.f. deck, which
does not have any plastic beneath it. They have removed plastic
from beneath the rockbeds as a condition of approval of a 1985
application, and have replaced it with permeable fabric. There is
still a garage proposal for the future that the Purdys have put
on hold. There is an existing shed that is 52 s.f. Chairman
Kelley inquired as to whether the Purdys still used the shed.
Mrs. Purdy stated that the shed was not needed and they had
intended to remove it. She added that they have removed more
hardcover than they were asked to do.
Chairman Kelley clarified that hardcover in the 0-75' zone
was the issue. Gaffron responded in the affirmative and added
that the total hardcover would be 22.8% in the 0-75' zone. In
the 75-250' zone, hardcover would be 33%. Gaffron stated that
the areas underlain with fabric were included in the hardcover
calculations. Kelley asked if it would be possible to place the
trampoline on grass, as opposed to rock underlain with fabric.
Mrs. Purdy stated that grass would not grow in that area.
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING PILE 41311-PURDY CONTINUED
Bellows suggested using sand. Cohen added that if grass were
used, that area would not be considered in the hardcover
calculations. Mrs. Purdy replied that they would remove the
fabric if the Planning Commission absolutely required them to do
SO. She added that placing the fabric was costly and was done in
order to comply with the conditions of approval given by the
Council in their 1985 application.
Kelley asked how much hardcover was actually being added.
Gaffron replied there would he an increase of approximately 40
s.f. in the 0-75' zone. Planning Commission member Johnson
stated that the revised proposal was a reasonable alternative and
was a fair compromise.
It was moved by Planning Commission member Johnson, seconded
by Chairman Kelley, to recommend approval of a hardcover
variance, subject to staff recommendations. Motion, Ayes=7,
Nays=O, Motion passed.
i1323 JON W. PAPAS
3369 CRYSTAL BAY ROAD
AFTER -TEE PACT VARIANCES
SECOND REVIEW
The applicant was present for this matter.
Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron
explained that this application involved an after -the -fact
request for a deck. A variance for hardcover in the 0-75' zone
would be required, along with an average lakeshore setback
variance. This matter was previously heard by the Planning
Commission, and was tabled pending submittal of a survey, which
has since been received. The hardcover in the 0-75' zone prior
to the construction of the deck was 20.7%, the deck has increased
that amount to 26.3%.
Mr. Papas informed the Planning Commission that the deck was
three -fourths completed. He did not realize that he needed a
permit to construct the deck and stopped work immediately when a
stop work order was issued. He said that he had received letters
from his neighbors indicating that they had no objections to the
deck.
Chairman Kelley asked Mr. Papas what he considered his
hardships to be? Mr. Papas replied that there was no other place
to put the deck, which he felt would add to i livir. I space on
his property.
Planning Commission member Hanson commen'ed that based upon
a previous approval of an application involving retaining walls
within the lakeshore yard, he felt approval of Mr. Papas's
application would be appropriate.
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING PILE #1323-PAPAS CONTINUED
It was moved by Planning Commission member Hanson, seconded
by Planning Commission member Bellows, to recommend approval of
this application, per staff recommendations. Hanson cited the
hardship as being the fact that there was no other reasonable
location in which to build the deck. Motion, Ayes=2, Nays=5.
Mr. Papas asked what harm a deck would have with regard to
runoff. Kelley replied that the comprehensive plan called for
preservation of Lake Minnetonka. The best way to do that is to
control the quality and quantity of the runoff into the Lake by
leaving the ground uncovered so it can absorb as much water as
possible. Kelley added that the Planning Commission was just a
recommending body for the City Council. The City Council can
overturn any recommendation from the Planning Commission.
Planning Commission member Bellows asked Mr. Papas if there
was any way that the deck could be built off to the side.
Gaffron stated that there was approximately 18' from the east
side lot line to the house. Mr. Papas stated that there really
was no room there. Bellows asked how many feet above grade was
the deck? Gaffron replied approximately 1-1/2'. Bellows
suggested building the deck without a rail, then only the
hardcover variance would be necessary.
It was moved by Planning Commission member Cohen, seconded
by Planning Commission member Brown, to recommend denial of this
application, because of the need to be consistent when dealing
with hardcover in the 0-75' zone. Motion, Ayes=5, Hanson and
Bellows Nay. Motion passed.

CLASS II PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION
CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC HEARING
The !affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were
duly nrced.
The applicant was present for this matter.
Asistant Planning 6 Zoning Administrator Gaffron explained
that this application involved the creation of a 2-acre building
site from a portion of the Wayzata Country Club property.
Chairman Kelley stated that the most important issue with
this application was drainage. He asked Gaffron to show where
drainage occurred. Kelley then asked where the runoff went once
it passed the south lot line. Gaffron stated that some drainage
occured to the west and some to the south. Bellows and Cohen
disagreed, stating they believed the d-=inage flowed east.
Gaffron stated that the drainage running off of the property
could be channeled so it would not have a significant effect on
the Hauser property.
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING PILE i1326-RONALD LAUER CONTINUED
Mr. Leo Hauser explained the current drainage patterns and
conditions. He stated that the landscaping for Mr. Lauer's house
would increase the runoff from melting. This would push drainage
water further into his property and make it very wet and
marshy. He is opposed to this happening.
Mr. Lauer stated that Mr. Hauser would have problems from
his own property because of the slope. Mr. Hauser responded that
he had owned the property for 17 1 ars and did not have any
significant problems to date. He said that any fill brought in
on the Lauer lot, would cause more water to gather on his
property.
Chairman Kelley asked Mr. Lauer what he proposed to do to
prevent a more rapid flow from running off of his property? Mr.
Lauer stated that he had no proposal at this time, but did not
understand why the land could not be contoured so that the water
would flow more to the west, rather than flowing onto the Hauser
property. Kelley informed Mr. Lauer that there could be no
increase in runoff due to the building of the house or any
accessory structures.
Mr. Albert C. Greig, stated that he had lived at 137 Chevy
Chase Drive since June, 1955, and had watched the entire area,
including the gol- course, develop. Mr. Greig explained his
understanding of _he drainage in the area. He stated that the
contours were changed when the golf course was built. He said
tha• the concerns of Mr. Simmons, Mr. Hauser, Mr. Nelson and
himself involve the fact that Mr. Lauer's house will be built at
an elevation so as to overlook the golf course. This would
involve a 24' depth of fill. The addition of the septic mound
would bring the fill within 220' of the rear property line. The
vegetation currently in that area helps deter runoff to a degree.
Once the fill is brought in and the vegetation is removed and the
grade increased, there will be an increase in runoff. Planning
Commission member Johnson inquired as to whether Mr. Greig had a
current runoff problem on his property? Mr. Greig stated that
the drainage currently runs across the rear of his property.
Kelley agreed with Mr. Greig's concerns.
Planning Commission member Cohen asked whether the private
access would become a public road. Assistant Planning and Zoning
Administrator Gaffron replied that the applicant had not
discussed that with the parties that own and maintain that road.
Mr. Lauer stated that he would be buying the road from the
Wayzata Country Club. Planning Commission mem*er asked Mr. Lauer
whether he had a purcha... -greement? Mr. Lauer stated that he
did and it was continger upon the approval of his application.
It was movad by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning
Commission member Bellows, to table this application pending
further review and more detailed assessment of the problems on

the property. With regard to the drainage, an independent
hydrologist would need to be hired to provide a plan for drainage
control. Kelley also requested grading plans and site plans so
that the actual runoff can be determined. The issue of the road
would also need to be addressed and Kelley asked that a
representative from the Wayzata Country Club be present the next
time this matter was before the Planning Commission. MrHauser
indicated that she was concerned about the road anc private
driveway taking out all of the vegetation that currently acts as
a buffer for their property. Cohen added that safety would be a
major factor should the road become a public road. Motion,
Ayes-7, Nays-0, Motion passed.

VARIANCES -SECOND REVIEW
The applicant was present for this matter.
A brief review of this application was given by Assistant
Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron. He stated that a
front setback variance was required. The applicant has revised
his proposal by changing the deck and garage, in addition to
moving the location of the house slightly further south. The
applicant now requires only a variance for the front setback
which will be 37' rather than the required 50'. There will no
longer be an encroachment into the wetland setback area, but
applicant requests that the City allow cantilevering of the deck
into the 26' wetland setback.
Chairman Kelley inquired as to the number of houses that
could possibly be built to the north of this property. Gaffron
stated that there is currently one house, with a pctential for
one more. Kelley asked the applicant whether the access road was
private or public. Mr. McNellis replied that the road was a
private road that served the old Pillsbury home that is now owned
by John Prudden. Kelley asked about the remainder of the road
that connects with Woodhill. Gaffron stated that Woodhill Road
was actually owned by Woodhill Country Club. Kelley asked
whether the applicant had any agreement with the owners of the
road in case the heavy construction equipment shor.ld damage the
road. >:r. McNellis responded that he would be responsible for
repairing the road if it was damaged.
Planning Commission member Bellows asked how many acres Mr.
P-udden owned. Mr. McNellis replied that gad a little or
acres. Bellows observed that there could _ 4 he es bui_
that location.
Kelley asked how far the building envelope was from the

ZONING PILE 41329-MCNNLLIS CONTINUED
travelled road. Mr. McNellis stated it was 73' to the edge of
the ^ouse, but there is a 36' strip of land owned by Mr. Prudden
between his house and the roadway. Mr. Prudden granted an
easement for the purpose of putting in the driveway. Kelley
asked Mr. McNellis whether he had asked to purchase that land
from Mr. Prudden. Mr. McNellis responded in the affirmative and
added that Mr. Prudden was not able to sell the land because he
wished to maintain 8 acres.
Planning Commission member Johnson comma. -d that he was
comfortable with the proposal and looked upan the deck as an
overhang rather than an actual structure. Bell_3vs indicated that
she would not approve the deck because the applicant knew what
the building envelope was at the time they purchased the
property. She added that she might be willing to approve the
front setback. Hanson concurred. Cohen stated that he was
uncomfortable with the entire proposal. He said the area was
peculiar from the very beginning. He too thought that the
applicant was aware of the problems with the buildability of the
lot at the time he purchased the property. Moos concurred with
Cohen's opinion. Planning Commission member Brown indicated that
due to the unique characteristics of the lot, he would have no
problems with the proposal.
It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning
Commission member Hanson, to recommend approval of the front yard
setback, and denial of the 4' encroachment into the wetland.
Motion, Ayes-2, Nays=5. It was moved by Planning Commiss)c.n
member Johnson, seconded by Planning Commission member Brown, to
recommend approval of th4 front yard setback and the 4'
encroachment into the wetlands. Motion, Ayes=2, Nays-5. It was
moved by Planning Commission member Bellows, seconded by Planning
Commission member Moos, to recommend denial of both the front
yard setback and the 4' encroachment into the wetlands. Motion,
Ayes-4, Kelley, Brown and Johnson, Nay, Motion passed.
Mr. McNellis stated that the hardship involved with his
application had not been discussed. Kelley explained that the
application had been thoroughly reviewed and this r ; the second
time this matter had been presented. He felt the Planning
Commission was fully aware of the hardships. Mr. McNellis asked
for suggestions as to how he could place the house on the
property. He said he would hav _ problem with surface runoff if
he were -o place the house i. another location within
building envelope. Hanson stated that he understood ,iis
constraints involved, but thought it would be possible to build
within those constraints. Cohen reminded Mr. McNellis about his
right to go before the Council ar the fact that the Planning
Commission was only an advisory l-:_,dy. Bellows added that the

Mr. McNellis reiterated his belief that the Planning
Commission did not understand the environmental hardship involved
with his application. He explained that there was a culvert in
the Prudden Road that brings water onto his property and further
restricts the building envelope. Kelley asked Mr. McNellis
whether or rot he was aware of this problem when he bought the
lot? Planning Commission member Johnson recommended that Mr.
McNellis bring the matter to the City Council. He pointed out
the fact that the Planning Commission was split in their
recommendations. Kelley told Mr. McNellis to write down his
hardships and present them to the City Council.

ZONING FILE #1334-REBERS CONTINUED
to Mr. Rebers wi.th a few exceptions. Mr. Jarvis also asked for
feedback from the Planning Co_,imission concerning the road. Mr.
Jarvis asked for clear direction as to whether the loop road was
preferred over the cul-de-sac. All seven Planning Commission
member indicated, by an informal vote, that they preferred a loop
road.
Mr. Jarvis proceeded by reporting that Mr. Rebers agreed
with items 1, 2, all easements would be prepared as part of the
preparation of the final plat, 3, 4, 5, and most of 6. Chairman
Kelley interjected that he wished to add another condition in the
subdivider's agreement that would address the preservation of
trees. He began by asking the Planning Commission members for
their feelings on disallowing any accessory structures on the
building pads. This would include second garages, gazebos,
tennis courts, swimming pools. Since the major argument in favor
of the rezoning was tree preservation, then he wanted to see that
the trees were in fact preserved.
Plannining Commission member Bellows believed that
paragraph "c" under item #6 addressed the topic of tree
preservation. Zoning Administrator Mabusth asked why the
proposed covenants did not address accessory structures.
Chairman Kelley apologized for straying from Mr. Jarvis's
explanation of what was acceptable under item #6. Mr. Jarvis
continued by saying that "a" was a problem, "b" was acceptable,
"c" he recommended a .25 FAR (floor/area ratio) maximum, "d"
would be acceptable if the language were modified to say "within
the .25 floating zone within the pad area, as opposed to an
absolute; "e" a 4' wire mesh -type fence is being proposed that
would blend in with the surroundings. Chairman Kelley asked Mr.
Jarvis if he had discussed the issue of the fence with those
neighbors that were concerned. Mr. Jarvis stated that he had
not.
Mr. Jarvis addressed paragraph "a". He stated that the
Planning Commission was confusing the pad area with the lot area.
In looking at the smallest lot, the lot area was 32,000 s.f. The
pad area would be 11,000 s.f. This would allow for setbacks on
each lot of 50' front and back, and 30' on each side. By using
the figures quoted, there would be 21,000 s.f. or just short r!
2/3's of the lot preserved. Within the 11,000 s.f. of pad area,
he is requesting that overall limitation for development be a .25
FAR. The FAR normally applied to the entire lot area. If the
:t would allow for an 8,000 s.f. structure. That would mean a
tootprint of 2,712 s.f. If a garage is added, the ground cover
would be 3,528 s.f. All in all, there would be ground cover of
3.528 s.f. out of a total 32,000 s.f. lot, which is slightly
above 10% ground cover. Kelley asked for a definition of FAR.
Jarvis replied "floor area ration"- Kelley observed that a one
story house could actually have ground cover of 8,000 s.f.
14
14INUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING PILE #1334-REBERS CONTINUED
Jarvis added that the 8,000 s.f. would still be within the 11,000
s.f. building pad. By allowing this .25 FAR, it would give each
home builder flexibility.
Planning Commission member Bellows stated that she would
favor something similar to an FAR that would limit the
buildability of the lot. Jarvis stated that the Rebers proposal
already provides far more stringent setbacks than normally
required. Mr. Jarvis cited other examples of how the FAR would
aid in the preservation of the trees and natural vegetation. He
stated that on a 64,000 s.f. lot, the buildable area would be
reduced to approximately 17,000 s.f., due to the setbacks, and
that would allow for sufficient protection of the trees.
Planning Commission member Brown asked for clarification
regarding the side setbacks and whether the trees would remain
undistrubed in those locations. Jarvis stated that those areas
would be the no -grading, no -building, nonencroachment areas.
Bellows interjected that there would be no disturbance, except
for the driveways. Jarvis confirmed that.
Chairman Kelley observed that by disallowing any disturbance
within the proposed setback areas a homeowner would not be able
to lay sod to the street. Mr. Jarvis disagreed with that
interpretation and added that if the Planning Commission wished
to include that restriction they should specifically address it.
Mr. Jarvis thought that restriction to be excessive. Kelley
indicated that allowing sod to the street would contradict Mr.
Jarvis's statement that there could be no disturbance of trees
within 50' of the street.
Zoning Administrator Mabusth stated that the proposed
covenants address preservation within the woodlands preserve
area. The Planning Commission members read the portion of the
covenants that Mabusth referred to. Bellows observed that they
did not specifically address the size of trees that were to
remain or that could be removed. Planning Commission member
Johnson asked what the normal setbacks for a one -acre lot would
be. Mabusth replied 35' for the front, 10' for the side and 30'
for the rear. Bellows stated that she was not concerned with the
setbacks as much as the true preservation of the woodlands.
Mr. Pf laum clarified that the covenants pertained to the
trail system only and did not attempt address the building lots
themselves. Planning Commission member Bellows stated that she
was looking for more specific limitations with regard to the
building lot. Pflaum reiterated Mr. Jarvis's ideas.
Chairman Kelley asked for feedback from each Planning
Commission member regarding the size of the building pad/building
envelope. Planning Commission member Cohen stated that he
interpreted the term "building envelope" to address the house;
"building pad" would be a more appropriate term for referring to
15
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING FILE 11334-REBERS CONTINUED
the building area. Kelley agreed. Cohen suggested that whatever
percentage the Planning Commission felt was appropriate for the
building pad, include the accessory structures as well. Cohen
added that the building footprint should be predetermined.
Kelley stated that he would have a hard time specifying that.
The building pad was already pre -established because of the
required setbacks for each lot. He did not believe that the home
builder should be limited as to where within that pad he would
place the house. Kelley did want a perentage defined as to how
much of the pad would be buildable. Cohen agreed and added that
the percentage should include everything, the driveway, tennis
courts, the house and garage.
Mr. Jarvis reiterated that the setbacks already allowed for
substantial preservation within the lot. He did not feel that
allowing a percentage of the building pad would be reasonable,
but rather a percentage of the entire lot. Planning Commission
member Bellows suggested that the percentage of buildability
would need to be approximately 50% to 75% of the building pad if
the percentage were based on the pad. Planning Commission member
Cohen asked why such a high percentage would be appropriate.
Bellows explained that the house size that would be allowed using
50% of the pad, would not be very large. She was afraid that
placid such restrictions would encourage smaller, more poorly
designed homes. She stated that Mr. Jarvis's recommendation of
25% of the lot would be more appropriate. She suggested that as
opposed to the FAR however, that the 25% be looked upon in the
same fashicn as hardcover. Bellows said the main question would
be whether to allow 25% of the lot or 75% of the pad. Allowing
for 75% buildability of the pad would be the most restrictive in
terms of tree preservation. Kelley and Cohen concurred that 75%
of the pad would be the most effective way to preserve the
maximum trees. Planning Commission member Johnson disagreed and
stated that 50/50 would be more reasonable and would allow more
flexibility for the builders.
The next item to be addressed was the issue of the driveway.
Mr. Jarvis stated that he c'id not want the driveway to be
included within the 75% buildability of the pad. Kelley asked
about the proposed provisions for vegetation removal within the
designated setback areas. Jarvis said that his intent was that
no trees be chopped down, but if a homeowner wished to remove
shrubbery or install sod in those areas they could do so. Kelley
asked how the 50' front setback should deal with the driveway and
sod. Planning Commission member Cohen suggested setting a
specific footage limitation on the size of the driveway. Kelley
suggested that the 50' front setback be excluded from the
restrictions of tree removal. Cohen stated that he was aware of
areas in Orono where trees over 1" in diameter were marked and so
designated to remain forever. He suggested such a procedure be
used in this case. Cohen asked if the driveway could not be
included within the 75% buildability of the pad.
16
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING FILE #1334-REBERS CONTINUED
Planning Commission member Bellows suggested a "U"
configuration for the building pad that would run all the way to
the street. Mr. Jarvis observed that there could be problems
with such a plan. He suggested that the Planning Commission "let
go" and allow the persons buying the lot the freedom to build on
it as they choose. He added that "trust" was necessary in that
the Planning Commission would have to trust that persons paying
$100,000.00 for wooded lots would not cut down all the trees.
Planning Commission member Cohen stated that there are
$100,000.00 lots with $400,000.00 houses that had absolutely no
trees. There was considerable discussion that followed as to
viable alternatives to this problem. The final resolve was that
80% of the building pad could be hardcover, including the
driveway. Within the 50' front setback, any tree may be removed
for the purpose of installing the driveway.
The next issue addressed was fencing. Mr. Jarvis stated
that they were proposing a 4' wire mesh fence with wood posts for
the northerly boundary. Mr. Platteter presented pictures of the
wooded area abutting his property. The purpose of the pictures
was to show the Planning Commission that the woods were not very
dense. Planning Commission member Hanson asked Mr. Platteter
what kind of fencing he would prefer. Mr. Platteter replied that
it did not matter, as long as it ,could be a "barrier" and could
not be penetrated. Mr. Platteter also expressed his concerns
about the traffic increase, but was most disturbed about the
possibility of persons trespassing on his property to access the
lake. Chairman Kelley asked whether arborvitae staggered with
4'fencing would be acceptable? Mr. Platteter replied that he did
not wish to cause any unnecessary financial obligations for Mr.
Rebers. Planning Commission member Bellows told Mr. Platteter
that it would be impossible to keep children off of his property
entirely. Planning Commission member Cohen stated that he
sympathized with Mr. Platteter's concerns involving his pool and
horses. Chairman Kelley asked Mr. Platteter if he wanted the
fence to run the entire length of his lot line? Mr. Platteter
confirmed that. Kelley asked whether the Platteter pool was
enclosed in any way? Mr. Platteter stated that it was not, it
was open.. Mrs. Platteter reminded the Planning Commission that
they would have a 6 to 1 concentration of houses along that
boundary of their property. That concentration would mean a
complete instrusion of their privacy. Bellows and Hanson both
commented that such a situation was a consequence of having
neighbors. Mrs. Platteter stated that the reason they moved to
Orono was because of the large lot sizes.
Planning Commission member Johnson expressed his fears of
setting a precedent should the subdivision be fenced off from the
Platteter property. He did not believe that 25 lots on 32 acres
constituted high density housing. Kelley concurred, but added
that he would be willing to recommend a fence around a portion of
the Platteter property. Hanson stated that he could accept a 4'
17
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING FILE #1334-REBERS CONTINUED
fence, but basically he concurred with Johnson and Kelley. Moos
suggested using evergreens, or arborvitae, along the 3 lots for a
visual screen. She reiterated Bellows' opinion concerning
keeping trespassers out entirely. Bellows stated that it would
be up to the Platteters to take proper safety measures pertaining
to the pool. She added that she had a stream running through her
property and she could not ask the DNR to protect the stream from
potential trespassers. Bellows questioned whether vegetation
would even grow in that area due to shade. Mr. Jarvis stated
that there would be 100' separating the Platteter property from
the nearest building pad in the proposed subdivision. Johnson
suggested striking item "e" from the staff's recommendations.
The other Planning Commission members concurred.
The next item addressed was woodland preservation/no-grading
areas. Bellows asked Jarvis what the specific covenants were
that pertained to those areas. Jarvis stated that he wanted to
limit any tree removal within the wooded area of the lots, as
well as the outlots. Kelley asked if the preservation standards
would apply to brush. Jarvis stated that the covenants would not
discourage brush removal for the purpose of tidiness. Kelley
suggested limiting tree removal to trees under 2" within the
entire lot, except in the area where driveways would be located.
Hanson indicated that he wanted the homeowner to have the freedom
to do whatever they desire in the front of the lot. After
considerable discussion, the Planning Commission, as a whole,
agreed that trees 2" and above must remain on all sides of the
lot, except in the location where a driveway would be placed.
The brush can be removed. Steve Pflaum questioned whether dead
or diseased trees could be removed? Kelley stated that they
could, but he would not address the issue of who would determine
whether a tree was diseased or not.
It was determined that Item "d" should read "limit grading
activities to a specific level and require City approval if it is
to be exceeded." Mr. Jarvis said if that condition would relate
back to the 80% of the pad area he would not object.
Planning Commission member Cohen wanted to address the issue
of the access. Planning Commission member Hanson concurred.
Cohen did not believe that the current proposal was safe. Mr.
Kost stated that the access was moved to its proposed location
because staff had indicated that was where they wanted it. Mr.
Jarvis interjected that the access was a non -issue, in that they
would place it wherever the City desired. Planning Commission
member Bellows stated that she disagreed with the City Engineer
and preferred the access to be at the crest of the hill. Hanson
concurred. Cohen stated that he too agreed because traffic would
indeed increase considerably.
Chairman Kelley wanted assurance that all Planning
Commission members understood the proposal concerning the
W
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988

southerly portion of the property by the Little Oak Store.
Planning Commission member Brown indicated that the outlot was
created for the purpose of a road. Mr. Jarvis stated "that it
was unfair that Mr. Wear was not contributing" to the necessary
right-of-way. Should Mr. Wear decide to re -develop his property
prior to the road being developed, Mr. Wear should contribute to
the right-of-way.
Mr. Wear was present and stated that the only consideration
given to him throughout the entire development process was the
fact that he was not donating his land for the right-of-way.
Ms. Maggie Roderick, Dickey Lake Drive, stated she was
opposed to the looped road ever connecting to Pine Ridge Lane.
She said that she was also concerned about the sewer access. She
wanted assurance that it was not going to run across any 2-acre
property. Zoning Administrator Mabusth said that at this time,
there were no definite plans regarding the sewer connection. She
said that she had seen some preliminary engineering plans and the
sewer line was proposed at the south lot line of 2-acre lots on
the south side of Pine Ridge Lane. Mr. Steve Pflaum stated that
he had seen the preliminary engineering report. The sewer line,
if it were to be built by Orono, may come from Long Lake.
Another possibility would be to have the line serve the
commercial area only. He mentioned the Long Lake/Orono/Medina 3-
party power agreement interceptor that comes up Willow Drive to
Highway 12. The concept is to "spur" it at that point, take it
100' north so it could service commercial on either side. This
proposal was only included in a feasibility study. Mr. Pflaum
added that the sewer line cannot go into properties not located
within the M.U.S.A. district.
Ms. Roderick stated that she lived on the corner of Willow
and Dickey Lake Drive. Should a sewer line come down Willow
Drive, would she be assessed? Zoning Administrator Mabusth
stated that the only persons assessed for sewer were those who
benefitted from the sewer. Ms. Roderick asked what would happen
should the City decide at some future time that she had to have
sewer? Mabusth stated that would be very unlikely because of the
established M.U.S.A. line. Bellows interjected that the M.U.S.A.
line could change. Mabusth said that the City would have to
amend the Comprehensive Plan and ask for a realignment of the
M.U.S.A. line.
Ms. Roderick commented that she had moved to Orono because
of the 2-acre minimum lot sizes. The Planning Commission has now
allowed 1-acre lot sizes. She did however, commend Mr. Rebers on
his proposal.
Mr. Wear stated that he already had sewer hooked up to his
property. He wondered whether he would be assessed for the sewer
lines for the Rebers project. Kelley stated that he did not know
19
MINUTES OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OCTOBER 17, 1988
ZONING FILE #1334-RBBBRS CONTINUED
the answer to that question and advised Mr. Wear to call the
Mayor. Mr. Wear stated that it was time the City determined that
issue.
There were no further comments from the public regarding
this matter and the public hearing was closed.
It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning
Commission member Bellows, to recommend approval of #1334,
subject to items #1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, as set forth in staff's
recommend_,tions and conditions, and to the additional items as
follows:
1. That the access to the subdivision be moved to the crest
of the hill on Brown Road.
2. The building pad will be defined by the 50' front and
rear setbacks and 3C' side setbacks. 80% of the building pad can
be hardcover. The 80% hardcover figure includes the driveway
which will be outside the building pad. Within the 30' and 50'
setbacks, there will be a limit placed on the removal of trees
with diameter of 2" or greater, with the exception of the
driveway area, where any size tree may be removed.
3. The Planning Commission did not recommend a fence for
the north side of the property because of the precedent that
would be set with other subdivision reviews.
Motion, Ayes=7, Nays=O, Motion passed.

portion of blacktop back to grass. There would be a hardcover
reduction from 30.3% to 25.5% in the 75-250' zone.
Chairman Kelley, upon verification of the 0.6 acre lot size
by Gaffron, stated that he would have a hard time approving such
a large structure on such a small lot. Other Planning Commission
members concurred. Planning Commission member Johnson agreed in
part, but preferred to see the new structure over the existing
garage. Planning Commission member Moos concurred with Johnson.
Mr. Theobald asked if he would still be required to remove
blacktop if he built the addition on top of the existing garage.
Planning Commission member Brown asked if that would allow the
hardcover to remain the same. Mr. Theobald explained that
hardcover would increase. Brown asked how there could be an
increase in hardcover if the addition was built over the existing
structure. Kelley expressed his confusion as to how the
hardcover calculations decreased from 30.3% to 25% by moving the
garage back and making it larger. Brzwn ans::c_e�4 that it was due
to the amount of driveway he was proposing to remove. Brown
asked Mr. Theobald why he could not do the garage as he wanted
and take out enough hardcover so there would be no increase. Mr.
Theobald stated that he could do that if he kept the garage where
it is. He added that he was at 33.5% hardcover before he even
started. Brown preferred to keep the garage below 1,000 s.f. and
either reduce the hardcover or keep it at its current level.
There were no comments from the public regarding this matter
and the public hearing was closed.
It was moved by Chairman Kelley, seconded by Planning
Commission member Johnson, to keep the hardcover at or below its
current level of 30.3% and keep the accessory structure to less
than 1,000 s.f. Mr. Theobald asked if he could maintain the old

Chairman Kelley commented that he would not object to the
hardcover increasing in the 250-500' zone, but he did not agree
with the proposed increase for the 75-250' zone. Kelley asked if
there would be any hardcover Mr. Hagberg could remove to keep the
hardcover the same? Gaffron replied that there was plastic
underlying some rockbeds that Mr. Hagberg could remove. Kelley
asked about the road to the back of Mr. Hagberg's property. Mr.
Hagberg explained that it was a City access for the sewer lines.
Kelley asked what the hardcover in the 75-250' would be if the
road was removed from the calculations. Gaffron replied that the

The Affidavit of Publication and Certificate of Mailing were

Mr. Robert Martinson was present as a representative of
Michael Halley Homes, Inc., and Mr. and Mrs. Dean Terry, the
property owners were also present.
Assistant Planning and Zoning Administrator Gaffron
explained that the applicants were proposing to construct a
gateway system at the entrance of the driveway serving 2710 and
2715 Pence Lane, about 150' in from Kelley Avenue. The existing
wooden planters will be removed.
Planning Commission member Brown asked why this structure
needed variance approval. Kelley replied that the 4' height did
not conform to the 3-1/2' maximum set forth in the ordinance.
Gaffron reminded the Planning Commission that if the structure
were placed 30' back from the property line and at least 10' from
the side property line, a setback variance would not be
necessary. Gaffron pointed out the fact that the proposed
structure would encroach on a 10' drainage and utility easement.
If this application is approved, the City will require a Hold
Harmless Agreement so that the City or any other utility company
can make repairs to their utility lines and not be held
responsible for any damage that might be done to the wall.
Gaffron expressed the concerns of the neighboring property

owner, Dailey. His driveway has been and would continue to be
used for a turnaround for persons attempting to drive to 2710 and
2715 Pence Lane and encountered "Private Road" signs at the
existing entrance. Kelley observed that such a problem would
exist with or without the security gate. Planning Commission
member Moos asked whether there was a "No Trespassing -Private
Property" sign on the corner of Kelley and Pence Lane. The
applicant stated that there was a sign but it was not at that
location. Mr. Martinson said that such a sign could be placed at
that intersection.
Mr. Steve Bakke, 2765 Pheasant Road, stated that the private
road was previously used by his family for pedestrian traffic to
ccess Kelley Avenue. Mr. Bakke wondered whether the gates would
:strict such a use. Mr. Bakke stated that part of the driveway
is built on an easement for his property. He wanted to know the
intent of the builder as to freedom of movement. Mrs. Terry
stated that the cars were their concern, not the children walking
through the property. Mr. Martinson informed Mr. Bakke that a
survey had been done and the driveway does appear to "meander"
over the easement.
Kelley asked what the hardships for the variance were. Mr.
Martinson stated that security was the major hardship. Moos
inquired as to the number of cars that trespass per day. Mr.
Jerome Skifter stated that there is constant traffic, especially
since Michael Halley had begun construction. Mr. Skifter did not
think the gates were an effective method of dealing with the
problem. To the contrary, it would cause more of a problem for
himself and the Daileys. He said that the gates would b-- an
enticement for the public, rather than a limiting factor.
Kelley asked if there would be lights on the top of each
monument. Mr. Martinson said that there is a light adjacent to
the structure. Kelley asked whether the entryway was presently
lit? Mr. Skifter said there are currently lights down the
driveway. Mr. Skifter added that his kitchen window looked out
directly at the proposed monuments. He was also concerned about
the removal of trees. Mr. Martinson said that it was his
intention to retain the trees and natural buffer on the property
line, which he estimated to be 5' to 10' in depth.
Ms. Debbie Rice, Kelley Avenue, commented that the Parade of
Homes caused a dramatic increase in traffic. She reiterated Mr.
Bakke's concern about the children using the private road to get
to Pheasant. Mr. Frank Dailey sympathized with the Terry's
desire for privacy. However, he believed that the entrance gate
should be placed farther down and that a turnaround be provided.
Otherwise, he would have more people using his driveway for a
turnaround.
Mr. Terry said he wanted to eliminate the traffic and

vandalism that had been occurring on hLs property. He agreed that
there had been an increase in traffic since construction of the
Michael Halley home began. He said that they were planning on
putting up a security gate anyway.
Kelley asked whether the gates were mechanical? Mr.
Martinson stated that they would be electronic. Kelley asked how
the fire department would get through in case of fire. Mr.
Martinson replied that the gates would be code and/or key
activated, besides being activated from the house. The access
code would be given to appropriate entities that would require
entrance. Kelley informed Zoning Administrator Mabusth that the
issue of emergency vehicle access should be addressed with all
applications for mechanical/electric gates.
Brown asked for clarification about a proposed turnaround.
Mr. Terry said that right outside the monuments they were
proposing to broaden the area to provide a turnaround. Kelley
asked whether the Terrys would be willing to move the gates back
far enough so that a side yard setback would not be required?
Mr. Martinson said that was feasible. Hanson asked if it would
have any impact on the neighboring properties. Gaffron pointed
out that if the gate was moved further away and the 10' and 30'
setbacks were maintained, a variance would not be required. The
gate/wall would become an accessory structure and as long as it
meets the accessory structure setbacks, it could conceivably be
as high as the house.
Mr. Martinson stated that he would like the Planning
Commission to make a recommendation and asked for direction with
regard to the turnaround. Kelley said it was possible that the
variance application could be entirely withdrawn. Mr. Martinson
said that it would in the best interest of the Terry's and Mr.
Skifter if the gates remained in the location they were now
proposinq. Johnson asked how far from the property line the wall
would be? Mr. Martinson replied it could be approximately 20'
from the front property line and that the 10' side setback
requirement could be met. He added that there should be plenty
of room to back up and turn around. In addition they would put a
sign on the corner of Kelley and Pence.
There were no comments from the public regarding this matter
and the public hearing was closed.
It was moved by Planning Commission member Johnson, seconded
by Planning Commission member Hanson, to recommend approval of
this application for a height variance and front setback
variance, provided that the applicant brings a revised plan
showing the turnaround and safety access issues to the City
Council Meeting. Kelley asked about delivery boxes being put in
the gate. Mr. Martinson said that they had already considered
that in their plan. Motion, Ayes=3, Kelley and Moos Nay, Motion

Members present:

Carol Pitsch, Lisa Johnson, Dr. Harold Pellett, Suzi
Pauli, Dorothy Stannard
Topics discussed:
1. Chic indicated she will be doing something to express
appreciation to the Hennepin County people for their
cooperation through out the construction.
2. Next we took a bus ride starting at the Navarre end so
we could all discuss key issues through -out the
project.
Here are some of the comments that were made.
Corner of 15 & 19
This is considered a hub and the entrance to the
new construction so it should be given special
attention.
Each business on the 4 corners should be contacted
to find out what their plans are and to indicate
to them what our plans are.
Dr Pellett indicated that it would be difficult to
plant trees in planters on the North side because
they probably would not live. Flowers, etc. would
be better.
Possibly we could plant trees on the South side along
the shopping center if their was enough room. (See
trees section later in minutes)
Launch Site in Spring Park can be improved on.
(See trees section later in minutes)
Intersection by the Minnetonka Mist
This is considered Spring Parks hub and special
consideration should be given to this corner.
Stop lights by the Spur gas station is considered
a focal point.
Screening
Certain property needs to be screened or cleaned up.
Here are examples but the list is not all inclusive.
1. Zucarros garbage truck business.
2. Trucks that sell roses.
3. Auto repair facility in Navarre.
4. Auto sales business in Spring Park.

Not present:
James Ventura, Carol Pitsch, Suzi Pauly, John Gehardson
Topics discussed:
1. Chic indicated the size of our committee was as large
as we need it and she would poll all the members to
be sure they can take the time required to be active
participants and we would not increase the size unless
we had someone with skills that we could utilize on
a sub -committee.
2. We discussed the pros and cons of having a designer
with no affiliation to a nursery or one with an
affiliation do the plan. No real conclusion was
reached so we will get bids from both as long
as they are qualified. We will indicate in the bid
proposal that we would consider purchasing materials
from them but there would be no guarantees. It was
decided that we need to form a sub -committee to
issue a request for bids and have them select a
developer for the plan. Gene Shavlik volunteered
to draft an initial draft of a bid proposal and
send it to each member of the sub -committee. It
was agreed that the general membership would
accept who -ever the sub -committee selects but
anyone who wants to be involved can be on the
sub -committee or can voice their opinions.

3. We talked about the importance of keeping all of the
city officials informed about our efforts and
what we were trying to accomplish. It was decided
to form a sub -committee to keep each of the three
town officials informed.
Sub -committee
Jane.11 Hunt - Available to answer questions
concerning funding through grants, etc.
Gene Shavlik - Spring Park
Mushroom business is.
6. The parking lot on the North side of the
Balboa building in Mound.
7. All brick or concrete walls near the road
need Vines, etc. growing on them to soften
them up a bit.
It was noted that the Toro building in Mound was a
good example of what can be done. All of this is
private but maybe it's possible there is grant money
available in this area.
Old Smith Building in Mound
Here is an example of too much hard surface.
Post Office in Mound
Chic indicated they will be doing something
and should be contacted.
Trees planted on North side in Mound
Everyone agreed they were well done.
We should consider a similar type of planting
in all the areas where trees are a possibility
and need a planter box such as in all of the
shopping centers and the launch site in
Spring Park. We should contact all of the
shopping center groups to find out their plans.
Other comments worth noting.
The bench in Mound near the Chamber office is a
good example of a bench we can consider.
The retaining walls could have some sort of vine,
moss rose, or schrub.
A schrub that could be condidered near roads is
a die back type of schrub that is cut back each
year to the ground. Would this survive the salt
problem?
3. Next meeting is Wed. Nov. 2 at 12:00 at the Mist.

REQUEST FOR BIDS
The Westonka Area Chamber of Commerce has formed a committee
comprised of citizens and concerned individuals to complete
and then implement a coordinated plan of beautification for
the newly completed portion of county road 15 which includes
the towns of Navarre, Spring Park, and Mound. It is
expected that each of the town official.-- will endorse the
concept and provide necessary funding, —thin reason, to
complete a formal plan. In order to proeeed, we need a
proposal to present to each city that should include the
following items as a minimum:
Oualifications
1. What experience your company has in developing plans
for cities, counties, roadways, etc. as it relates to
knowledge of laws, ordinances, right of ways, etc.
2. Who specifically would work on our project and what are
their qualifications.
Time requirements
1. We need your bid within 10 days of receipt of this
request.
2. We would like a completed draft of the beautification
plan no later than January 15, 1989.
What is to be included in the plan
The plan should include private as well as public
property. The following are suggestions but are
not intended to be all inclusive.
1. Where should we have planters and what type.
2. Where should plantings be made and what is a
suggested type.
3. Where should there be screening and what type.
4. What special effects can be done in the areas
considered to be "hubs" for each town.
5. What signs can be placed identifying the boundries
of each town.
6. Can anything special be done with the light poles.
7. Where can we place benches and what type.
8. Where can we plant trees.
Purchasing materials
If your firm also sells materials, we would like to
know the pricing structure and whether any of the cost
could be refunded through purchasing the materials.
We cannot guarantee, however, where the materials
will be acquired.
Help to be provided
Because this is a volunteer project, we have a number of
people with varied backgrounds that are willing to help
wherever and whenever needed. We will provide whatever
assistance is needed to keep the costs reasonable. In
developing the plan, we would expect to work together
until we develop a final plan that the committee and town
officials will all endorse. The implementation phase
will be handled as a separate issue.

From: Holly Hansen
Re: Upcoming Meeting/Ordinance Amendment
The quarterly full commission meeting of the LMCCC will take place at the
Excelsior City Council Chambers on Tuesday, November 15th at 5:00 p.m.
It is extremely important that we have a quorum for this meeting in order to
amend our Cable Television Ordinance to reflect Dowden's sale to Triax.
Our Joint Powers Agreement requires a quorum of "not less than d"0 directors
of the Commission representing not less than ten (IO)membersrr in order to
amend our franchise. We did not have a quorum present at our full Commission
meeting in August to vote on the franchise amendment and this is a business
item that absolutely should be taken care of at our November meeting.
If you will be unable to attend the LMCCC meeting and will not be representing
your city, you should contact your alternate and have that person attend
in your place. If you do not know who your alternate is, please contact me
or your city hall.
The other important business item on the Agenda is to elect a person to fill
our vacancy on the Executive Committee, and to elect a Treasurer. These
vacancies were created when our past Treasurer, Jerry Roehl, moved out of
town this fall.
Enclosed for your review prior to the Meeting are the proposal amendments to
the Ordinance, the October minutes, and the Third Quarter Report. Please call
me if you have any questions on these items.
If you are unable to attend the LMCCC meeting on November 15th, please contact
me as soon as possible and no later than 5:00 p.m. on Monday, November 14th.
It is important for me to know prior to the meeting if we will have the
quorum necessary to conduct the business listed on the Agenda.
If you are unable to attend the meeting, or will be late, your phone call is
greatly appreciated. I do hope to see as many of you as possible and again
if you have any questions please feel free to call me at 474-5539 during
business hours.

MOTION 10.18.88.3: Brancel moved, seconded by Olds, to approve
the 3rd Quarter Budget Report as written on Appendix B. Motion
carried unanimously.
B. ADMINISTRATIVE
Administrator Hansen reported that access has been very active
in October. The Open house went very well. Special classes
have also been offered at the studio during October, including
classes on lighting and performing for camera. These events and
classes are part of a special promotion of the studio during
October, Community Television Month.
Hansen also handed out a report on the NATOA conference, she
attended September 23rd - 28th.
Administrator Hansen informed the Commission that she has a 3/4
inch VCR for sale. Hansen feels the VCR would be beneficial to
the Studio as it is a more professional format and would make it
easier to acquire programming on such things as public safety,
fire and police information. The cost is $350.00 plus $125.00
for repairs, for a total investment of $475.00.
MOTION 10.18.88.4: Olds moved, seconded by Hughes -Seamans, to
authorize the purchase of the 3/4 inch VCR for $350.00 and
$125.00 for repairs. Motion carried unanimously.
Hansen informed the Commission that a new person needs to be
elected to fill the vacancy on the Executive Committee in
November. Another important item for the November meeting is
the Admendment of the Ordinance for the Transfer of Ownership,
it is essential to have a quorum in order to conduct this
business.

Administrator Hansen reported to the Commission that she has not
received a copy of the financial statement from January 1-
May 31, 1988 the Monthly Sales Summary report from January 1-
May 31, 1988 and Management Reports from Dowden which she
requested for the Financial Review. She did receive a phone
call from Dowden stating that she should come to their Atlanta
office and pick the materials up. Mary Smith stated that she
has summary reports, they are state wide and the revenues are
not separated. Smith also has the management reports but they
are not broken down by communities. Hansen questioned Smith on
the premium discount, why did it increase at such a high
percentage. Smith stated that this increase was high because of
prior rate card changes that were corporate wide and low
installation costs to the subscribers. Smith will supply Hansen
with some of the materials we need for the Financial Review, but
does not have access to Dowden's Financial Statements for the
requested time period.
C. TRIAX
Mary Smith handed out her monthly report:
Connects: 167, Disconnects: 87 for a net gain of 80.
Total ending subscribers for LMCCC is 4,915.
Construction in Hamel has not begun due to trunk cable and
feeder line being on backorder. The Hamel project will more
than likely be delayed until spring; if this is the case, Hamel
will be first on schedule in spring.
IV. ADJOURNMENT
MOTION 10.18.88.5: Olds moved, seconded by Hughes -Seamans, to
adjourn the October 18, 1988 at 5:40 p.m. Motion carried

Conference Report
NATOA - Miami, FL
September 25 - 28 1988
Submitted by Holly Hansen
The NATOA (National Association of Telecommunications Officers and Advisors) Conference
is primarily targeted at getting information out to regulators of cable companies
(cities). The majority of attendees at NATOA are city representatives, including cable
administrators, and city council and cable commission members.
The major issues discussed at this year's NATOA Conference were National Cable Policy
and what areas the NLC (National League of Cities) should be lobbying Congress for in
taking a second look at sections of the Cable Act of 1984 and the possibility of telcos
(telephone companies) entering the cable market.
This year's NATOA Conference was attended by several representatives from both cable
and telephone companies.in addition to the usual audience of city representatives.
Telephone company entry into the cable business is still at a philosophical stage
for the most part, except in some rural areas where local phone companies have been
granted permission to provide video services. Congress ultimately holds the power in
deciding if telcos will be allowed to enter the video services market.
Points to keep in mind in this "battle" between the telcos and cable companies include:
1. Cable is basically a monopoly and regulators should be concerned with
such issues as cross -ownership, vertical integration, and concentration
of ownership. The public may be well served in the short term by a second
company offering better rates (this also includes cable company over -builds),
but probably only one company would remain in business in this type of
situation.
2. If telcos are allowed entry into the cable market, they should be subject
to the same requirements and restrictions that apply to cable operators.
In the case of telcos would this mean that they would be regulated at a
state or federal level and that cities would lose local regulatory powers?
This question stands unanswered at this point in time.
3. With the advent of HDTV and the compatability of fiber optics to carry
the wider band width required by any of the HDTV systems being considered,
where does this put cable companies and coaxial cable? It could possibly
take the phone companies up to 50 years to completely replace their copper
wire with fiber, and as prices of fiber and copper are expected to cross-
over somewhere between 1991-1994, this should make fiber attractive to cable
companies as well as the phone companies.
Current NLC Cable Policy supports the entry of telcos into cable, but says they must
be subject to the same rules and regulations as cable operators. NLC Policy also is
calling for the federal government to limit cross -ownership of cable systems by other
media interests and to establish limitations on multiple ownership of cable systems
in order to prevent concentration of ownership at both national and regional levels.
Other positions advocated by NATOA members include immunity legislation that would
protect cities from damages resulting in First Amendment lawsuits such as turning
down an applicant seeking a franchise (such as the challenge we saw in St. Paul this
summer, although in that case the city did win). Another suggestion I find intriguing
is that a severe tax be levied against companies that sell a system after owning
it for less than 3 - 5 years. With the rising prices of these sales and subsequent
rate increases passed on to subscribers such as we have experienced in the Lake
Minnetonka Franchise, I think this issue could be particularly interesting to us.
I have handouts from the NATOA Conference available and if you are interested in
obtaining copies of any of the following, please let me know.

INTEREST RATE UPDATE
Tax-exempt interest rates (BBI) have not come down significantly, but have improved greatly compared
to taxable rates. The October 7th BBI was at 7.53% compared with 20-year U.S. Government obligation
yields of 9.18%, or the 861 was 82.0% of U.S. Government Obligations. At the end of May, the
comparison was 7.96% versus 9.35%, or the BBI was 84.8% of U.S. obligations. Tax-exempt bonds are
becoming more efficient.
EFFICIENCY OF TAX-EXEMPT BONDS
Credit Markets, i trade paper, published my essay arguing for increasing the efficiency (lowering
interest rates) of lax -exempt bonds by limiting their use and by clarifying the tax laws. In response a
top researcher cr a large bond underwriting firm argued that tax exemption is not an efficient
"subsidy". Now -ve find in September the same firm described how the reduced volume of municipal
bonds has dramatically increased the effici^ncy of tax exemption.
Recently I spent a week in Tokyo which I last visited in 1945-46 when the City was ashes. Today it is
mile on mile of office buildings, factories and 12.5 million people. Japanese corporations can borrow
money at 6%, while the government sells at 5%. They truly have done an amazing job.

BUILDING BETTER COMMUNITIES
With the drought, you might think rural communities would hesitate to take on school bond issues. In
mid -October several of Ehlers and Associates' clients had substantial school bond issues up for
election. These times require local communities to compete in the local, state and world economies. It
makes sense to undertake building programs In slower times. Prices are lower; quality is better;
interest rates are lower; and local employment and the local economy receive a boost at a critical
time. Repayment occurs later when, hopefully, conditions will have improved.
FISCAL CONSULTING -- SALES VS. SERVICE
A consulting firm cannot afford to support both a large sales force and provide superior service after
being hired. Ehlers and Associates, Inc. does not maintain an expensive sales force, therefore, you may
not see much of us before you interview fiscal consultants. But you see us when it counts - in planning
and helping you present the financing to constituents. Our clients tell us that it is reassuring to work
with the account executive that they interviewed for the project.

OPPORTUNITIES FOR LOW INCOME HOUSING •
Federal support for low income housing has been reduced, b0t the lax Reform Apt of 1986 provided an
innovative and seemingly generous three-year program of tax credits for owners and investors. In 1987
the credit was 4% for acquisition; 9% for rehabilitation and new construction, but only 4% if a project
used other federal subsidies or tax-exempt financing. Credits i-i 1988 and 1989 are based on a monthly
prevailing interest rate formula that calculates present value credits of either 30% or 70% of qualified
devslopment costs over ten years.
Low income families and the community benefit when the owners, whether profit or non-profit, sell tax
credits to limited partners who contribute equity, which reduces the amount of other financing, adds to
the income stream, reduces the rent, and makes local projects feasible.
Twenty percent of a project's units must be occupied by households with incomes under 50% of area
median income, or 40% of the units must be occupied by households with incomes under 60% of area
median income. The gross rent including utilities must not exceed 30% of the maximum income level
for the particular size of household. If you have any questions on how this may work in your
community, please give us a call.

Chief Melvin Kilbo
ORONO POLICE DEPARTMENT
P.O. Box #86
Crystal Bay, MN 55323
Dear Chief Kilbo:
Last week, I requested a second "ride along" with Officer Larry
Tomcheck. I felt the request for additional time was necessary in
order to make an intelligent observation regarding a member of your
Department since the first time I rode with Officer Tomcheck was on
a Sunday morning for approximately 4 hours. During that time,
Officer Tomcheck could only answer my questions and respond to my
comments since no calls needed answering.
Little did I know when I requested the additional time, which I
thought would amount to a couple of hours, that I would spend
7-hours observing Officer Tomcheck and to a lesser degree, Offi-.er
"Chip" English and Community Service Officer Rick Dennisen.
As you may be aware, I observed the night of the Big Island f_re as
well as the accident in which the Medina officer was injured along
with "routine" calls and stops. It was probably a more eventful
evening than I would have liked, although very interesting.
I believe it is West Hennepin's good fortune having Rick become a
member of% their Department. The comments made to me by residents
of the community since Rick began as the Community Service Officer,
have been most favorable and he will certainly be missed in Orono.
Knowing Rick and watching him progress in his role has been a real
---pleasure. 1-wish him well! Maybe some day we can "lure" Rick back
to Orono.
Seeing Officer English for the second time only solidified my first
impression of him as .an excellent officer. His "teamwork" with
Rick and Officer Tomcheck on Friday night should be acknowledged.
It must be a plus for other officers working with Officer English
to know he will be there and respond when requested.
Officer Tomcheck probably had the most difficult night of all. I
wish to thank him for his patience with me in light of the events
of the evening. I'm sure his job would have been much easier
without a "ride -along". I did, however, get to see qualities in
Page $2
October 19, 1988
Officer Tomcheck that made me realize he is a valued member of your
Department. He was serving in a supervisory capacity that evening
and I feel did a most commendable job. His genuine concern for
his fellow officers as well as the general public was most
evident. Officer Tomcheck reminded me that I was a member of the
oral board when he applied for a position with Orono. That I had
forgotten. After spending time with him, I feel we made the right
decision a few years back when he was offered a position with the
Department. I hope Officer Tomcheck will remain with the Orono
Police for years to come.
One final note, Chief; through the tense times and the not so tense
times, your officers are human. They are to be commended for all
they do and still maintain a very needed "sense of humor".
Thank you for the opportunity again,
member of your Department.
Sincerely,
Barbara A. Peterson

MAYOR'S ARTICLE
RECYCLING - At the October 24th Council meeting we directed staff
to start a curbside recycling program in the City of Orono. The
City of Orono together with six other communities have been doing
a drop off recycl itig program under the joint powers known as the
West Hennepin Recycling Commission. This effort to date has been
very successful with the Cities reaching approximately a 7%
recycling rate. The City however, needs to reach a 10% recycling
rate by May of 1989 or the County wi 1 1 cease its funding together
with the County eventually taking over the recycling program by
putting in the program they would want at a price they would set.
Ultimately the goal for the cities are to reach a 16% recycling
goal. As a result an increased rec}cling effort needs to be
undertaken.
Your City bill be working to commence the program by the first
part of 1989. In advance of this the City wi l l be delivering the
appropriate container(s) together with applicable recycling
information. It is anticipated that this wi 11 be twice a month
pickup, placing these containers at your curbside. While the
County will pay for a portion of the program, the City portion
wi 1 1 be financed by a I+arge of about $ 1 1.00/year that will be
put on as part of the ; ity and septic billing system. Those
on the utility system .1 have that charge billed quarterly on
their statements. The residents on the septic billing system
will be billed once annually.
Should you have any questions or ideas regarding this program,
please feel free to contact John Gerhardson at 473-7359.
COUNTY ROAD 15 - With the construction season coming to a close
for 1988 the County has completed the majority of the work on 15.
Unless we have mild weather through November, December and into
January it is anticipated that the only work remaining will be
that of some of the sidewalks and ground restoration which will
wait until next spring. It should additionally be :>>ted that the
Westonka Chamber and Chic Remien have undertaken a
"BeaLLification Drive" in conjunction with the project and
looking to make a great project even better. If you have any
comments regardi-^ this please contact Chic kemien at the
Westonka Chamber 41z-6780.

HIGHWAY 12 - The Ad Hock Task Force, that has been exploring
improvements to Highway 12, has established a meeting with the
Commissioner of the Department of Transporation, Leonard Levine,
for the latter part of November. The purpose of this meeting is
to request Commissioner Levine's support and direction to MnDOT
so that MnDOT Engineers can work to undertake the necessary short
term safety improvement plus work to help determine longer range
improvements to the highway. As you may be aware a petition has
been submitted to both the Orono and Long Lake Councils regarding
safety improvements from downtown Long Lake east to the Luce
Line. Additionally it is our understanding that another petition
is currently being circulated regarding the entire corridor.
Your input on these matters are greatly appreciated.
1989 BUDGET/MINNESOTA PROPERTY TAX SYSTEM - In October the
Council adopted its 1989 Tax Levy which will result in a less
than 1/2 of 1 per cent increase in your property taxes which wi 1 1
continue to provide services at our current level. Off -setting
that good news however, are changes the Legislature has made to
the property tax system in 1987 and 1988 Legislative sessions.
While residents will see little impact because of City taxes,
changes in County and School District funding, which make up 80
to 85% of the typical tax dollar will cause a substantial rise in
the property taxes for 1989.
Prior to the 1988 legislative session people in the Metropolitan
area were paying twice as much in property taxes as someone
having the same income outstate. If the suburbs were segregated
from this comparison the difference would be even greater.
Subsequent changes will increase this disparity, in part because
Aids to Local Governments are based on their past spending
patterns. This is the result of various property tax relief
efforts which benefit outstate residents but only seem to
exacerbate the problem in the Metropolitan area. In 1987 the
Metropolitan area, which has about 50% of the state's population,
paid 64% of the taxes to the State but received only about 46% of
the money back. Based on estimates this disparity is growing 2
percentage points a year.
As a result of these problems the City Council has recently taken
two actions to help rectify the matter. The initial one is a
resolution to our State Legislators outlining our concerns and
the second is the contribution towards an effort to help develop
a realistic data base and proposal that would help suburban tax
I
payers rather than continuing to shift the money Out State.
PERSONNEL NOTES -
Michael Kirnyczuk - It is with regret that one of our many valued
employees, Mike Kirnyczuk, has been required to resign his
position as a Police Officer with the City. Mike sustained a
severe lea injury while on a false alarm call and although
thought it would be an injury that could be recoverable, has not
seen much improvement in the last year and a half. As such, Mike
is taking a new job in the securities investigation area and we
wish him well.
Rick Denneson - Several of you know Rick as our first Community
Service Officer, who was instrumental in undertaking our own
animal control program. Rick has done an excel lent job for us
and will be going on to become a Police Officer with West
Hennepin Public Safety, which serves Maple Plain and
Independence. We wish Rick the best of luck.
Sincerely,
James Grabek
Mayor

A.MERICAN EDUCATION WEEK
November 13-19, 1988
How long has it been since you were in a public
school building? The public schools are something
we pretty much take for granted and that is rather
strange when you consider what an important invest-
ment they are for the children of o,ir community.
America's schools are an investment in our future.
Orono schools are your investment in the future
of this community and for this reason the Orono
Education Association wishes to extend a special
invitation to you to visit the Orono Schools during
American Education Week, November 13-19. 1988.
This is your opportunity to see how ,your investment
is paying off for today and for the future.
As teachers in the Orono School District, we
appreciate the support you have shown for educations
and we welcome the opportunity to share with you
the way in which education has changed and what is
happening in our classrooms. We think that it
is important that you know how well our schools
are keeping up with the challenge of preparing
today's students for a world filled with tough
decisions.
Won't you please plan to visit one or all of the
schools in the district sometime during American
Education Week, November 13-19? We will be looking
forward to your visit.
Education is frequently a topic this election
season. It is a generally safe topic and one
which engenders interest from constituents.
Most people see a direct correlation between
education and opportunity, between education
and the solution to social problems and between
education and a full human life. In fact,
President Lyndon Johnson articulated a typical
-.merlcan viewpoint when he said, "At the desk
where I sit, I have learned one great truth.
The answer for all our national problems - the
answer `or all the problems of the world - comes
down to a single word. The word is education."
To be sure, there is an abiding faith that
education is key to our way of life - and it is.
All around us are examples of the opportunities
made available by education and those lost by a
lack of education. As parents and educators we
recognize that truth and present it ..s a constant
theme to our children and students.
We also turn to the schools in the face of social
problems and issues. Whether the matter is safe
driving, chemical abuse or a host of other social
concerns, there is belief that schools can lead
to solution.
Finally. we also recognize the role of education
in leading to a full human life. Not only
assisting young people to secure career opportu-
nity and responsibly deal with the challenges of
society, but also helping each student to
appreciate the broader dimensions to life is
integral to the role of the school.
What I mean by broader dimensions are such
refinements for the students as wanting to read
good literature, appreciating art and music,
enjoying thoughtlul conversation, developing
loyalties and friendships and having a moral
irection.
It is tempting to focus the education effort only

on career opportunities. Then education becomes
training. It is expedient to focus the attention
f schools only on social ills. Then education
becomes problem. solving.
Both career opportunities and social issues are
worthy of the school's attention. Similarly,
attention to the refinements of human conduct is
equally important. In fact, the really successful
school deals with all of these goals: career
opportunities, social concerns and human refine-
ments.
How empty education would be if it only served one
goal. Too often the rhetoric of the campaign
trail is problem oriented. Helping students
prepare for jobs and combat drug abuse is impor-
tant work for the schools. However, there is so
much more that is part of a first-rate education.
Let's not settle for defining schools too narrowly.
The result can only be narrow graduates.

NATIONAL EDUCATIONAL SUPPORT PERSONNEL DAY
NOVEMBER 16, 1988
There's a strong support team in the public schools
who hel} to make the total program run smoothly.
They work from pre -dawn hours to late at night to
make the schools a better place for our students.
The team members help make the system go. They drive
our busses ... they prepare meals for our hungry
students... they keep the building shiny and clean...
they assist teachers in the classrooms... they
answer hundreds of telephone calls ... they keep
equipment in good working order ... they provide
health care assistance when needed ... and they
provide valuable help to our school staff.
It's a team of skillful, caring people. That's
why Orono Education Association is proud to be a
part of a national day set aside to recognize
those team players who help to make the Orono Schools
great! Wednesday, November 16, is Educational
Support Personnel Day. It is a great time to say
Thanks to e-ch of you from your fellow employees...

TASK FORCE
The Orono School Board has established a School
Day Schedule Task Force to develop recommendations
for its consideration. That Task Force, comprised
of patents, teachers, and administrators, is in
the process of developing a survey for all the
residents of the district relative to the scheduling
of the Orono Schools. That survey will be coming to
your home sometime after the first of November.
We would ask that you respond to it quickly and
return it as directed within the survey. The Task
Force will be base its recommendation to the Board
on information gathered in the survey.
The Task force has studied all the financial and
scheduling ramifications but still feels a strong
desire for community input.
Both positive and negative responses have been
expressed. Most elementary teachers and some
parents report that the earlier schedule for
elementary students promotes a very positive
environment. Advanatages cited include improved
student performance, alertness throughout the day
and more planning time for teachers.
Following is a listing of teacher and parental
concerns brought to the attention of the Task Force
1. Elementary children are too tired to cat
breakfast.
2. Difficulty in getting elementary children up
and going not quality time.
3. I.S./M.S. students home after elementary
students.
4. Daycare.
5. Not notified of the schedule change in
advance. No public hearing.
6. Elementary students getting on the bus in the
dark. Commuter traffic.
7. Does the shortened day create stress in
children or teachers?
8. M.S. students leaving during academic day
for interscholastic sports.
9. I.S./M.S. nonproductive time in the morning
before school.
10. I.S./M.S. scheduling.
11. Short lunch time.
If you are the parent of a primary, elementary,
intermediate or middle school child you should
have received via your child a .listing of the
Task Force members.
An informational public hearing regarding the
school day schedule will be held in the high school
auditorium at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November 29,
1988.
