PARK COMMISSION COMMENTS — PAULINE BOUCHARD,
REPRESENTATIVE
Bouchard mentioned the Park Commission's support of the Mound skate park and noted
that a resolution of support was on the agenda. She stated they had heard of some boards
to surround a hockey rink that might be available cheap, and wondered if there was a
place available to store them in the off - season should they be able to obtain the boards.
Gappa stated the boards were in Fargo, so it would be difficult to get them back to Orono.
Bouchard stated that the Star Tribune had run an editorial regarding Minnetonka Beach
• not allowing the public access to the Dakota Rail Corridor. She suggested that if

Minnetonka Beach had hired a lobbyist, then maybe Orono should as well. The Park
Commission planned to draft a letter to the editor to show that Orono does not support
Minnetonka Beach's position. Sansevere stated he agreed with the letter. Flint stated he
favored hiring a lobbyist to keep them informed of legislation that might affect the Dakota
Rail. Sansevere stated he does not approve of hiring a lobbyist.
Gabriel Jabbour stated that the cities of Orono, Spring Park, Mound, Minnestrista, and St.
Bonifacius, as well as Hennepin, Carver, and McCloud counties all support the trail
unanimously as an uninterrupted corridor. He stated that Representative Tom Workman
gave him his word that he would not introduce legislation against the trail. A bill was
posted on Friday and passed on Tuesday, with Minnetonka Beach the only group that
testified. It was a lobbyist driven bill, and Orono's interests will not be served unless they
have a representative on the floor. He also stated that the DNR, Hennepin County, and
Met Council are on their side, and he suggested sending a letter to Met Council. Mr.
Jabbour stated that Minnetonka Beach's comprehensive plan states in several places that
the corridor should not revert to a transportation corridor, but should become a park
available only to Minnetonka Beach residents.
C�
Flint stated that a lobbyist could cost up to $5,000 to keep the Council advised. He •
suggested making the money available to spend at the Mayor's discretion, but to not use it
unless necessary.
Flint moved, and Nygard seconded, to make up to $5,000 available for a lobbyist, to
be used at the Mayor's discretion.
Vote: Ayes 3, Nays 1 ( Sansevere).
PLANNING COMMISSION COMMENTS —SANDY SMITH,
REPRESENTATIVE
None.
LMCD REPORT —LILI MCMILLAN, REPRESENTATIVE
McMillan spoke about the additional water patrol project over the 2001 boating season.
There were no boating fatalities on Lake Minnetonka, a reduction of personal injury
accidents by more than 50 %, an increase in public contact, but lower citation count. The
number of patrol hours by deputies was increased by 59% to 2,546 hours. She felt _the
program was a big success.

McMillan stated that they were able to transfer out deputies, keeping the cost of the
program down —only $52,000, versus the $100,000 originally budgeted. They plan to use
the overpayment from 2001 to fund the 2002 program. They would also require some
additional funds from the cities. Orono's expense for 2002 would run about $600,
because they are budgeting $60,000 for the 2002 program. She stated Minnetonka did not
contribute last year, because of a disagreement over the payment formula. They will
approach them again for this year, and they would like to have all fourteen cities with
lakeshore involved.
She stated they really appreciate the cities' and communities' support of the program. The
DNR conducted a survey and found that people felt the quality of enforcement was good,
constructive and helpful.

Resolution No. 4757
Weinberger stated that the Nygard's had requested a variance to permit a two story
addition for an entry way and second floor living space. The addition would be 8' from
the east property line encroaching 2' into the 10' required side yard setback. The variance
would allow the addition to match the existing exterior wall on the house. When finished,
the hardcover shall equal the current hardcover. The Nygard's would place the addition
over existing hardcover and remove part of an existing rock garden to not have more than
the existing hardcover on the property. They would also remove all landscaping fabric
and install a proper drainage system.

variances to Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.22, Subdivision 1 and Section 10.56,
Subdivision 16(L)(2) to permit an alteration to existing hardcover over 25% for a

shifted to be flush with the existing house line. They also recommended a proposed
garage be reduced in size. Mr. Finney agreed to that and reduced the size in order to only
require a 10' setback. The final survey work on the revised plans was not yet in. In order
to shift the addition and preserve yard space on the other side of the house, they made the
addition longer and narrower, so that overall, it is the same size as the addition the
Planning Commission reviewed.
In addition to that, there is a proposed ground level deck and enclosed screen porch to be
constructed on the front side of the house. They wish to increase the screen porch so that
it can be accessed directly from the house.
Hardcover would be reduced substantially, but would still be over the 25% allowed
hardcover. Even with the addition shifted to match the current house line, there is a
variance required for the side setback because the addition would sit 8' from the side yard
setback. The final survey work is needed to locate a sewer line to make sure the proposed
garage not be located over the sewer line. If it is not, then a utility easement would be
required over the area of the sewer line. Most of the conditions made by the Planning
Commission have already been met by the applicant's revised plans. Weinberger stated
the staff would be comfortable recommending approval subject to the final survey work
and locating the sewer lines.
• Mr. Finney stated he would do whatever it takes to meet the City's requirements.
Sansevere and Nygard stated they supported staff's recommendation.
Moorse clarified that the screened porch would be fine as long as it stays under the 15%
structural coverage maximum.
Flint moved, and Mayor Peterson seconded, to approve the application subject to the
final survey being completed, the sewer being located, and subject to the final
resolution being drafted.

Resolution No. 4761
John Gleason with Hillcrest Northwest Townhomes was present. He stated he was the
builder, not the developer, with the project.
Flint stated he removed it from the consent agenda because of the neighbor's concern over
tree removal and replacement, and erosion that was depositing material on adjacent lots.
• Mr. Gleason stated that they need to follow an approved building plan, and until the last

building is finished, it will be difficult to control erosion. They are currently controlling
erosion with a silt fence and hay bails. They have also planted trees as planned up to this
point, but will need to complete the project before they can finish the plantings and
landscaping. How soon they can finish the project will depend on the weather. The
approved landscape plan is filed with the City and the City has a line of credit that will be
held until the project is complete.
Weinberger stated that the neighbors may have thought more trees would be going in than
actually will. The final elevations wouldn't be complete until the project is complete and
the backfill is in.
Flint asked if the City Engineer would visit the site. Kellogg stated he would visit on
Friday.
Weinberger stated that if the Council did not adopt the resolution, then it would have to
come back at the March 1 lth meeting. Flint stated he would be willing to approve it based
on the builder's verbal assurance that he would address the neighbors' concerns. Mr.
Gleason stated he was looking for approval so that they could begin construction.
Flint moved, and Sansevere seconded, to adopt Resolution No. 4761 vacating a •
dedicated drainage and utility easement within the plat of Lake Minnetonka Woods.
Vote: Ayes 4, Nays 0.
9. #02 -2749 Thomas P. Egan, 350, 360, 370 Big Island— Vacation
Weinberger suggested the Council might want to discuss the role of the Planning
Commission in relation to vacating land on Big Island. He stated that the applicant had
phoned to say he would not be present because his neighbors were unable to attend, and
he could not speak for them.
Flint stated they should get the Parks Commission's input as a matter of policy on
vacating public lands. He suggested the City may want to preserve part of the right -of-
way as public access to the lake. Nygard stated that the area was comprised of bluffs and
it was not a good access point.
Flint moved, and Nygard seconded, to table item 9.
Vote Ayes 4, Nays 0.
Flint moved, and Nygard seconded, that vacation requests within the City should
first be reviewed by the Parks Commission.

factors, the road right -of -way has been widened to 60'. There are wetlands on the
property. Part of the area will be filled for the fire station. They will be meeting with the
watershed district to approve the stormwater plans. The fire station itself comprises about
50% hardcover for the fire station. They would create a holding pond on lot 2 to mitigate
for the wetland that is being filled on lot 1.
The Planning Commission approved the preliminary plat as presented, subject to MCVVD
approval of the wetland mitigation and stormwater management plan.
Gaffron stated that widening the road to 60' has resulted in the need for a 10' setback
variance to locate the fire station building 40' from the proposed road outlot, rather than
the 50' required. The Planning Commission approved the setback variance, finding that
the variance is supported by the hardships, and will have no impact on the neighborhood
or adjacent properties, with the condition that if the 6th bay is not built, the station must
meet the required 50' setback.
The fire station building incorporated a hose tower that would be used for training
purposes. The tower exceeds the 30' allowed height by almost 5'. The Planning
Commission denied the CUP for tower height because it would have a potential negative •
visual impact on the neighborhood, its use could become a nuisance in the residential
neighborhood, the need for the excess height had not been demonstrated, and the potential
impacts of the tower in the residential neighborhood could not be satisfactorily mitigated.
Gaffron presented other issues for discussion. Staff recommended that park fees be
waived for Lot 1 and deferred for Lot 2 until it is residentially developed. Council would
have to decide whether Stormwater and Drainage Trunk Fees would be due for the plat.
He suggested Council document allowable fire station uses. Staff recommended that
Council consider platting Lot 2 as an outlot since it was uncertain how the lot would
ultimately be used. He stated it would be most appropriate to dedicate the road corridor as
a public road, and then name it. No application fees had been paid. Staff recommended
that as a minimum, all out -of- pocket and consultant costs be charged.
Moorse stated that he had received an email from the fire chief requesting that they
approve the tower. Flint, Sansevere, and Mayor Peterson all stated that they were not
convinced the extra 5' of height was necessary. Sansevere stated he was comfortable with
all of the staff's recommendations. Moorse stated they could approve the tower up to 30'
in height.
Mayor Peterson asked about the ambulance portion of the fire station being the last. add -

added. Sansevere asked why the fire department seemed to be fighting the ambulance
addition. Moorse stated that the only issue now was financial because the ambulance
personnel would not have access to the fire station. They would have a separate entrance
and all their needs met in a separate portion of the building.
Nygard stated he had an issue with granting a variance on new construction. Flint stated
that the variance was not required because of the 6th bay, but because of the wetland. He
also stated that if they were to deny the 6th bay, it should be through a direct approach, and
not by means of denying the variance. Jabbour stated they had tried to push the building
north, but there is a row of large, mature trees on the north edge of the property. Also, a
temporary bridge for the highway construction will cut through the north corner of the
property. With the wetlands to the east of the property, they cannot relocate the building
on the property.

MAYOR/COUNCIL REPORT
Nygard stated that he felt there should be some sort of cubic foot ordinance for lot size to
prevent the construction of large, boxy houses on small lots. He stated it was an issue for
the Planning Commission to discuss.
Mayor Peterson asked about the piles of dirt at 1850 Brown Road. Weinberger stated that
they had graded beyond what they were supposed to, and ordered to have it corrected by
March 5th. They are to remove the dirt and decompact the wetland soils.
Mayor Peterson asked if everyone was aware of the Hollander property and the crows. •
Moorse stated that Hollander had been putting out large containers of cat food and it is
creating a nuisance with the birds. Barrett stated they want to be careful not to make it
illegal to feed birds. He felt the judge who is hearing the Hollander hazardous building
case may be willing to direct him to stop putting out the food.
Sansevere stated he was in favor of naming the road by the fire station after Gabriel
Jabbour. Flint stated they don't name roads after living persons as policy. Mayor
