3877 SHORELINE DRIVE - PRELIMINARY SUBDIVISION - RESOLUTION
#3689
Mabusth reoorted that the boarded structures were burned on March 3. The debris.
however. still remains on the propertv. Oberhauser interiected that the debris should be
removed this week. Mabusth noted that the remaining residence and detached garage,
along with the western access at CoRd 15 or Shoreline Drive and retaining wall on the
west side, are to be removed before final plat approval. Oberhauser stated that he was in
understanding of the requirements. Mabusth said the demolition permit gives Staff the
authority to work with Oberhauser on the removal of debris. It was further noted that
the MPUA requires the toundation to also be removed.
Jabbour commented that the load limits begin on Friday of this week. Gerhardson
responded that the road being used to haul the debris is a county road and is not
restricted. If Dunwoody had been used, there would be a 5 -ton per axle limitation.

Mabusth reported that she was comfortable with moving ahead on the application.
Kelley said he did not believe there was compliance as the debris was not yet removed.
Jabbour noted that the applicant is unable to move ahead with the subdivision until final
plat approval has been made.
Oberhauser said he had no problem with tabling the conceptual approval if necessary. He
did, however, have a question regarding the Engineer's request for a 20' utility easement
for sewer. The existing house is less than 15' from the side lot line, and Oberhauser
would request the easement for the sewer within the 15'. He was concerned with the
limitations on the lot due to it being so narrow. Gerhardson said the sewer line was run
fairly shallow, and it should probably be all right to work within the 15'. Mabusth will
have the Engineer review this request prior to the application coming back before the
Council for final approval. Moorse noted that the easement is to allow work within the
20' and is restricted to no building within that footage. The setback is 10'.
Jabbour commented that the Council was willing to consider a 5' setback as the purpose
was to keep the building envelope out of the 75' lakeshore setback.
Barrett noted that conditions can be added for the preliminary subdivision review.
Barrett commented that the debris removal could be a condition that would be required
• before final approval. Once all conditions are met, then the application will be considered
for variance approvals.
is
Goetten and Kelley were concerned with moving forward on the application without the
completion of the removal of the debris. Mabusth said she was comfortable with
proceeding.
Mabusth said she will amend the resolution to include either a 20' or a 15' easement
dependent on the Engineer's review. Oberhauser said he would like to speak with the
Engineer if a problem was shown with approving the 15' easement.
Goetten moved, Kelley seconded, to approve Resolution 93689 with Engineer's review of
easement requirement. Vote: Ayes 3, Nays 0.

2ND SERIES
Mabusth reported that the code amendment was to allow an ice arena as an accessory use
to a high school. The amendment was changed per Council's direction of the February
26th meeting to reflect a 50' setback from residential property line rather than 100' as
recommended by Staff. Also included was the need to demonstrate financial capability by
demonstrating at least 80% of projected costs are secured.
Mabusth noted that the ice arena application will be before the Planning Commission in
April for conditional use permit review.

Hurr said she was would like to fiuher address the scope of the amendment under the
residential zoning. Hurr is in favor of the 50' setback for this particular site because of
the planned berming but is concerned with a school in a residential zone being allowed
50' from a residential property line and would not approve continuing this setback with
other projects. Kelley was in agreement with Hurr's assessment.
Hurr moved, Goetten seconded, to adopt Ordinance 9145, Second Series, amending
Municipal Zoning Code Section 10.20, Subd. 3 (A) by establishing indoor ice arenas as a
conditional use accessory to a high school in the "schools" conditional use within the R-

CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT •
( #13) ORONO BASEBALL ASSOCIATION REQUEST FOR EXPANDED USE
OF BEDERWOOD BASEBALL FIELD
Tom Hallquist was present, representing the Orono Baseball Association.
Moorse reported that the Orono Baseball and Softball Association has asked to expand
the usage to three nights a week at Bederwood Park. The current agreement with the
association allows two nights per week.
Goetten asked if this additional time was for the boys baseball or for girls softball. She
was informed that the extra night would be used by the boys for baseball as it is a baseball
field. This would open up another night at Holbrook for girls softball.
Kelley voiced his strong support for allowing the additional night of usage at Bederwood.
Jabbour suggested a decision should be made when all members of the Council were
present. Jabbour noted that the Council had entered into'a good faith contract less than
one year ago, which was negotiated by the Mayor, and has worked to come to an
agreement with the neighbors. Jabbour opined that there was a need for a long term plan
and solution.
Tom Hallquist, who is a girls softball coach, said their organization originally asked for 4 •
nights per week, which he said was necessary for scheduling of the 90 teams. Hallquist
suggested that he would have to tell the association that the City of Orono would not
cooperate. Hallquist said the association paid $28,000 for the Bederwood field, has
received $20,000 back, and is owed $8,000, yet is only allowed 2 nights usage. Hallquist
continued that what had happened last year was now history, and the association will
probably come back and ask for even more usage noting that "times have changed ".
Goetten informed Hallquist that she was in on the discussions from the very beginning.
She said she was not necessarily against the additional usage but had thought the usage
issue had been resolved. Goetten noted the usage of 4 fields, which excludes the Orono
School District fields. She suggested the association look at the needs and ask for the
support of the other communities, whose children are in the OBA.
Jabbour suggested other Orono Parks be considered. He said there were other groups
who want to use the parks as well.

( #13 - OBA Request for Expanded Use of Bederwood - Continued)
Kelley said he disagreed. He felt, even with community growth, the City needs to stand
up for the families and their values. He considered the hours of sunlight in a day versus
the actual amount of time used by the OBA and did not see that as being a large portion
of the available park time. Kelley said alot of the parking problems at Bederwood were
because of the Luce Line, which he felt could be resolved. He said he was in favor of the
3 nights as well as Saturdays.
Goetten said that was not the issue she was referring to. She said the City was taking
responsibility and so should the other communities. Goetten noted that baseball fields
were low on the priority list in the recent citizen survey.
Hallquist said he has been speaking with other communities. He said Maple Plain was
providing one more field at Rainbow. He also has meetings with Long Lake and
Independence. Hallquist said there were three fields that had grassed infields and raised
mounds, which is required for baseball.
Jabbour said the needs of children were also found to be the objective with the hockey
association proposal. He said this emphasized the City's backing of the children of the
area. He is concerned with broken promises. Jabbour said Bederwood is located near
the Luce Line and used by many groups during all hours of the day which requires the
• Council to reserve the right for others to use the park too.
Hallquist said the problem is that the citizens will perceive Orono as not backing their
youth. He reminded the Council that the Park Commission had recommended 3 nights
usage.
Jabbour said there is a need for planning for park usage without having one group
dominate a park.
Hallquist said he did not think the request was unreasonable. He noted that Maple Plain
gave their immediate cooperation to the request for a field.
Kelley asked Park Commissioner Use to comment. Ilse said the Park Commission
supports the Orono youth as does the Council noting the provisions made for youth at
Bederwood, Hackberry, and other parks. She said the original request came from the
girls softball association through Hallquist. The Commission was concerned with
excluding other groups. They saw the one additional night usage, which was actually
intended to be used by the boys baseball, as a temporary solution with the hope that
something would be worked out for the future. Personally, Ilse said she felt the decision
put the Council in a tough position as the 3 nights would only be a temporary solution.
She noted the ditticult history behind baseball use at Bederwood and the resulting broken
promises. Ilse said the people in charge should be used as role models, yet deals made
• are not being kept, which is not representative of good role models.

MEETING HELD ON MARCH 11, 1996
(# 13 - OBA Request for Expanded Use of Bederwood - Continued) •
Hallquist said the girls softball would love to use Bederwood but the field is a baseball
field. The recommendation allowed for Bederwood to be used for boys baseball an
additional night and Holbrook for an additional night of girls softball. This, Hallquist
saw, is two communities, Orono and Long Lake, working together. Kelley noted that
Holbrook originally was a baseball field.
Hallquist said, as far as breaking their word or contract, he did not see it as being that
harsh as breaking a legal document or lying. Hallquist was informed by Goetten that it
was a legal document. Hallquist said, "As bad as it may seem, times are changing; groups
are growing, organizations are growing." He added, "to break your word or lie, as you
want to say; yes, we had to lie or break our word to get an extra field, I don't think that's
too bad. ". Hallquist said their opinions and thoughts have changed to meet the growing
needs of the community.
Goetten suggested tabling the issue until the Mayor returned and put the item on the next
Council agenda.
Kelley said he was the Council member in favor of the usage at Bederwood and would
not be in attendance at the next Council meeting.
Jabbour said the theme was not "us against you" or Orono against children. He noted •
personal contributions made by Kelley and himself towards the OBA fields. Jabbour said
it was a matter of balancing conflicting interests.
Hallquist asked if he could rely on three nights at Bederwood and three at Holbrook for
his scheduling and was informed that he would have to wait until the next Council
meeting on March 25 for that decision. He asked what he was to tell those signing up for
ball. Jabbour and Goetten were both in favor of tabling the matter. Hallquist said that
would send a perceived message, noting the Park Commission approved the 3 nights of
ball, and wanted action taken now.
Jabbour moved, Goetten seconded, to table the decision on the baseball usage at
Bederwood for the upcoming season. Vote: Ayes 2, Goetten, Jabbour; Nays 1, Kelley.
Hallquist said this was his third meeting on the issue. Jabbour said he had not seen
Hallquist before the Council meeting. Jabbour said the needs should first be considered.
Hallquist asked to discuss with Council what the needs were. Jabbour said there was a
possibility of discussing the issue at an upcoming work session.

• ( #14) PART -TE%IE POLICE OFFICER APPOINTMENT
Moorse reported on the recommendation for filling the vacancy for a part-time police
officer with Correy Farniok, who has served as a community service officer as well as a
police intern. The part-time position will take effect on March 12, 1996, and Farniok has
been recommended by Acting Police Chief Cheswick.
Goetten asked Moorse if he had spoken with a consultant regarding filling the vacancy.
Moorse said he had reviewed the issue of an internal promotional process with a
consultant.
Kelley moved, Goetten seconded, to appoint Coffey Farniok to the position of Part -Time
Police Officer effective March 12, 1996, at a starting pay rate of $11.54/hr. Vote: Ayes
3, Nays 0.
( #15) POLICE RECORDS SYSTEM REPLACEMENT
Moorse reported that the change being proposed to the police automated system is
similar to that recently done in the finance department. The purpose is to save money
and increase the effectiveness of the records system. The current system would be
replaced with LEADRS, using a local area network. The use of this new system would
result in an on -going savings and assist in payment of the one time cost of $42,000 along
. with operational savings.
Kelley inquired if this system replacement was in the budget. Moorse reported that it was
not but the funds would come from the Improvement and Equipment Outlay Fund and be
paid back over a five year period.
Moorse noted that the South Lake Minnetonka, Chaska, and Minnestrista/St. Bonifacius
Police Departments, as well as another 100 cities within the State and another 150 cities
within the Country, are currently using this system. Mound and Minnetonka Police
Departments use ENFORCE, which requires a mini- computer and would need additional
in -house expertise to operate.
Kelley inquired if the City would need more than one printer. Moorse said they were
purchasing one printer in addition to the 2 currently owned, noting that only one printer
was needed for the network.
Kelley asked about the cost of consulting for the system. Moorse reported that $5,000
was related to the LEADRS software for training with $2,000 for the data. $1,400 will
be spent for on -site training and for area network and support.
Kelley asked who would staff the project. Moorse said Chris Miller would coordinate
the project as he did with the finance system and previously when he worked for the City
• of Roseville.

( #15 - Police Records System Replacement - Continued) •
Kelley asked why two different networks were necessary. Moorse said one reason was
to maintain the confidentiality for the police department data. Moorse said the server
was the high cost item, and the existing server would not work for both systems.
Jabbour asked Moorse to check to see if there is any discount on the cost of software
with the current use of some of the programs already within the City's computer system.
Kelley asked how he can be reassured that this is the best system for the department.
Moorse reported that Chris Miller has worked with several systems at a number of
agencies and has worked with network providers to obtain the best price and best system.
Kelley asked how the budgeted costs compare with the actual costs of the finance
department's system. Moorse said the actual costs have come in at less than what was
budgeted.
Jabbour asked how the software was chosen and if any generic software was considered.
Moorse said Staff obtained several price quotes. When the purchase of the server was
made, Staff looked at the reliability factor.
Goetten noted that although the system replacement was not in the current budget, the
Council did talk about bringing the departments systems together. •
Moorse reported that the $42,000 up front cost would result in a $70,000 savings over
10 years. This reflects the cost to maintain and depreciation. Staff has been conservative
with their estimations as they have considered the need for the computer to be replaced in
a three year time period.
Kelley moved, Goetten seconded, to approve the installation of a local area network in
the police department along with the upgrade of four personal computers, and the
installation of the LEADRS police records system on the network, at a cost of $42,000.
This amount is to be borrowed from the Improvement and Equipment Outlay Fund to be
paid back in installments of $8,350 over a five year period beginning in 1997. Vote:
Ayes 3, Nays 0.
( #16) USE OF RECYCLING COMMISSION BUDGET RESERVES
Moorse reported on the update report by Amelia Kroeger, Coordinator of the West
Hennepin Recycling Commission. A cost reduction in the budget has resulted in a
$15,000 budget reserve, of which $6,000 is Orono's share. There has been a number of
ideas how this money could be used. One option is to reduce shares. Kroeger suggests
setting aside the reserve for when the County's recycling grant expires in 1999.

Moorse reported that Staff recommends the equipment purchase of the remainder of the
one ton dump truck, the body and plow at this time.
Jabbour asked why the truck is bought piece meal. Moorse said, historically, the cab and
chassis is purchased through Hennepin County joint purchasing.
Kelley noted the need to work with local merchants and asked if they were requested to
submit a bid for the bidding process. Local merchants are asked to submit bids.
Kelley moved, Goetten seconded, to award the bid for the dump body and snow plow to
Crysteel Inc., for one dump body in the amount of $3,895, and one 9' snow plow in the
amount of $2,792, to be funded from the Improvement and Equipment Outlay Fund.

( #18) PUBLIC WORKS COMPUTER LINK

public works building and the administration building. The fiber optics were previously

( #21) APPROVAL OF POLICE SECURITY SYSTEM AND GRANT
Moorse reported that this request for approval is for the security monitoring system for
the police department. This is to complete the system originally planned but was stalled
due to budget problems. The conduit was previously installed. What is needed at this
time is the hardware and minor wiring. Moorse said a grant was available, which would
pay for 1/3 of the system, from the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry. This
Safety Abatement Grant would offset the cost by $2341. The remainder of the cost
would be paid for by the police department's seizure and forfeiture fund. $7,000 -8,000
would be used for this system out of the current $25,000 balance.
Kelley asked how the current cost for the system compares to that previously bid. •
Moorse said the costs were comparative but a switcher was added, along with an
additional quad unit to enable a user to choose one of four screens for viewing.
Hurr moved, Kelley seconded, to approve the purchase of a closed circuit television
system from Floyd Security in the amount of $10,748.00 with funding to come from the
