CURLEY FURNITURE SIGN Council acknowledged a memo from Code Enforcement Officer
Berg regazding an application for sign pemut from the Curley
Furniture Company at the former Ethan Allen facility at 1044
Highway 110.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that Curley Furniture wants to use the
entire 120 square feet (each side) of the former Ethan Allen sign but
the Ethan Allen sign is a non-complying sign 20 square feet larger
than is allowed by code and there is no record to show that the city
approved the sign. He stated that approval of the request would set a
dangerous precedent.
Administrative Assistant Batchelder informed Council that the sign
permit is a request to change the sign message on an elcisting sign
and that the structure of the sign was not removed when Ethan Allen
vacated the building. He explained that under the ordinance Curley
would be permitted to use 100 square feet of the sign area but not
the apex axea.
Mayor Mertensotto responded that Ethan Allen had a logo in the
apex of the sign and the current applicant intends to use the apex in
addition to the other sign area. He did not feel Council should
endorse a non-conforming sign use. He stated that Council has
asked other applicants to strictly conform to the ordinance and that
he does not see any good reason to set a precedent by allowing a 120
Page No. 4247
December 20, 1994
square foot sign along T.H. 110. He suggested that Mr. Curley
appear before the Planning Commission for variance consideration.
Mr. Tim Curley, present for the discussion, stated that the building
has existed for 26 yeazs and the sign has also and all he is asking is
to place his logo in the apex of the sign. He stated that he has met
with city staff and the city planner and all agreed that this was within
the limitations of the ordinance.
Mayor Mertensotto responded that 120 square feet of sign azea is
non-conforming and there is no record Ethan Allen r,eceived
approval for the sign size.
Councilmember Huber stated that if Council decide�i to deviate from
the ordinance, a precedent is set and others in the future would
expect the same sign size. He further stated that Mr. Curley should
make application for variance and go through the same planning
process as everyone else does.
Councilmember Huber moved to table action and refer the matter to
the Planning Commission for review and recommendation.
Councilmember Krebsbach seconded the motion.

LTNITED PROPERTIES Council acknowledged a memo from Public Works Director
EASEMENT PURCHASE Danielson regazding acquisition of easements from United
Properties in conjunction with the industrial park storm water
project. Council also acknowledged proposed easement agreements.
Mayor Mertensotto stated he feels that the appraisal is top dollar
value which does not take into account that this is probably not the
most desirable part of the developer's land for density. He further
stated that he has spoken to the city's appraiser, Blake Davis, and
asked if he thought it would be appropriate, (if the city acquires the
easement area at the $1.80 per square foot value at which he
appraised the property) for the easement azea to be deducted from
the total land area for development so that United Properties cannot
calculate the footprint by saying that they own the land and include
it within their land area calculation. He recommended that
acquisition be conditioned that the easement area be subtracted from
the land azea owned by the developer as far as the potential
percentage development.
After discussion, Councilmember Smith moved to purchase drainage
and utility easements from United Properties, as described in the

Public Works Director's memo dated December 15, 1994, for the �
appraised value of $246,000 to be funded by the TIF, subject to
execution and delivery of the easement documents, in recordable
form, by United Properties and further conditioned that the areas
taken for the easements be subtracted from the land azea owned by
the developer for future development percentages.
Councilmember Huber seconded the motion.
Council directed staff to draft a resolution with respect to acquisition
of the easement, the document to be attached to the r.ecorded
easement, and notify United Properties of the condition on
development azea reduction and inform them that unless they
consent to the condition the city cannot proceed with the acquisition
before the end of the yeaz.
Council acknowledged a memo and proposed resolutions with
respect to the 19941evy and 1995 budget.
Mayor Mertensotto opened the meeting for the purpose of a
subsequent hearing on the proposed 19941evy and 1995 budget, and
asked for questions and comments from the audience.
There being no questions or comments, Councilmember Krebsbach
moved that the hearing be closed.
Councilmember Koch seconded the motion.
Councilmember Koch moved adoption of Resolution No. 94-91,
"RESOLUTION APPROVING FINAL 1994 TAX LEVY
COLLECTIBLE IN 1995 AND ADOPTING THE PROPOSED
BUDGET FOR 1995."
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.
Council acknowledged a letter and information on the Metro East
Development Partnership from its Executive Director, Jeffrey
Rageth, along with a memo from Administrator Lawell. Mr. Rageth
was present for the discussion.
Mr. Rageth gave Council and the audience a history of his
organization and informed them on the organiza.tional purpose and
development activities of Metro East. He gave an overview of the
programs and services provided by Metro East and informed
Council on the potential benefits to be gained by the city through
Page No. 4249
December 20, 1994
membership in the organization, particulazly benefits to small
businesses�in the community who would like to expand.
Responding to questions from Mayor Mertensotto, he stated that the
annual membership fee, $500, has not increased during the seven
yeazs the organization has been in existence and in fact has
decreased
Mayor Mertensotto asked if the city would be open to assessment,
above the annual membership, and he complimented Metro East on
the quality of its bulletins.
Mr. Rageth stated that there is no assessment potential, and
explained that about 70% of the cost of the brochures is funded by
private enterprise. He stated that members can dro�: at any time.
Councilmember Smith stated that the facilitation and assistance in
providing contacts to the right person and being able to set up a
dialogue is very helpful, and it is the ancillary benefits that would be
realized by membership in such an organization that would make
membership worthwhile.
Councilmember Krebsbach sta.ted that there are other organizations
which provide similaz service, including the Dakota County
Economic Development Partnerslup, and suggested that Council
look at them as well.
Mayor Mertensotto suggested tha.t the issue be placed on the next
scheduled workshop agenda and directed staff to prepare a list of all
similar organizations which are operating in Dakota. County. .
Mr. Rageth invited Cou.ncil to attend the annual meeting of Metro
East to be held in January.
HEARING - FRIENDLY HILLS Mayor Mertensotto opened the meeting for the purpose of a
ADDITION STREETS continued public hearing on proposed Friendly Hills street and storm
sewer improvements. Council acknowledged a report from Engineer
Mogan in response to public comments at the December 6 public
hearing, along with a letter from Mr. & Mrs. Gail Wirth, 2123 Fox
Place.
Mayor Mertensotto gave a brief history on the project and a recap of
the December 6 hearing. He informed the audience that there has
been some reduction in the storm sewer drainage mains from the
project as originally proposed. He stated that the city cannot afford
to put in stubs at the main, at the $2,700 per lot assessment rate, but
the homeowners, if they choose, could hook up a sump pump and
Page No. 4250
December 20, 1994
dischazge directly into the storm sewer line, where the main is
available. He stated that homeowners can request that a stub be put
at their properties at an estimated cost of $200.
Public Works Director Danielson responded that the item could be
included as a change order to the contract, and the property owners
would be charged whatever the cost is. He stated that property
owners would have to notify the city of their desire for a stub at
some time prior to installation of the main along the properties.
Councilmember Smith stated that since mains will not run along all
of the properties, the city would have to notify those who will be
affected that they can take advantage of the stub opportunity.
�-
Councilmember Krebsbach encouraged residents who have a
problem with their sump pumps to take advantage of the stub if the
main is available to them. She pointed out that this would m��mi�e
the investment in the project.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that on December 6 the feasibility report
included drainage assessments for residential properties along Dodd
Road. He stated that those properties can be included in the
drainage assessment now since they drain to the district, or they can
be included in a future drainage project which will likely occur as
the result of redevelopment along Dodd. He informed the audience
that because there is a potential for future assessment, staff has
recommended that the nine residential properties along Dodd can be
removed from the current project.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that Ms. Renee Schmidt objected on
December 6 to being assessed for the street portion of the project.
He informed Ms. Schmidt that since this is not the assessment
hearing, she should appear at the assessment hearing and submit an
objection to the assessment at the time of the assessment hearing.
Ms. Schmidt stated that the staff report is inaccurate with respect to
her property. She stated that there is curb and gutter in front of her
house which was installed as part of the Bridgeview Shores project.
She sta.ted that she did not ask for the improvement at that time, and
was not assessed for it. She did not feel that she should be assessed
for street improvements as part of the Friendly Hills project.
Mayor Mertensotto responded that the homeowners in Bridgeview
Shores ultimately paid for the improvements in front of Ms.
Schmidt's home. He explained that her property is in the assessment
area and is part of the project and could be assessed for both street

and storm sewer. He stated that Ms. Schmidt's objection will be
placed on record.
Mayor Mertensotto asked for questions and comments from the
audience.
There being no questions or comments, Councilmember Krebsbach
moved that the hearing be closed.
Councilmember Smith seconded the motion.
Mayor Mertensotto commended the Friendly Hills Task Force on its
efforts. He stated that the Friendly Hills development was the first
major development in the city and that it has never�ad a street
assessment or urban streets. He stated that the engineering
recommendation is that Decorah, between Dodd and Apache, since
it has no access onto it, be 28 feet in width and the remainder of
Decorah, since it is MSA, be 33 feet wide. He sta.ted that there will
likely be a requirement by MSA that pazking be restricted to one
side of the street, but Council will not make a choice on which side
of the street will have parking allowed until it is notified of the
parking restriction by the state. He explained that MSA funding and
MSA reserve funding is necessary to make financing for the project
work.
Councilmember Krebsbach stated that she hopes that the Friendly
Hills community and those from Copperfield would work together
to reduce their speeds and that those in Friendly Hills not be hostile
to the neighbors who drive Decorah.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that one potential for controlling traffic is
to install four-way stops at some of the Decorah intersections.
Councilmember Smith stated that she is very much in favor of the
project and commends the task force. She stated that she feels badly
that some of the azeas were not represented on the committee but
expressed appreciation to the community for rallying around the
project and their open minded attitude.
Responding to a question from Councilmember Smith, Treasurer
Shaughnessy explained what MSA reserve is and stated that it is
anticipated that about $30,000 to $35,000 of the current $200,000
reserve will be needed for the Friendly Hills project. He explained
that the reserve fund has been used for lazge maintenance projects,
like the re-milling on Mendota Heights Road.

Mayor Mertensotto asked for Council to support a contribution of
$7,000 from the Storm Water Utility Fund to the project to
compensate for not assessing the Dodd Road residential properties
because they can be assessed under a future project.
Councilmember Huber stated that he is in favor of the project. He
further stated that Friendly Hills is a unique azea in that the lots are
smaller than most of the lots in the city and the proposed $2,700
assessment is equivalent to what would be assessed ($3,400 to
$3,500) for similar improvements to a standard city lot. He
explained that the city is financing a lazger share than it would in
other projects but he does not feel a precedent is being set in
consideration of the lot size differences.
f•
Mayor Mertensotto agreed, stating that the frontage of the lots in the
Curley Addition, for example, aze larger than Friendly Hills, and the
Curley lots will likely be looking at an estimated $3,400 to $3,500
assessment, which is proportionately the same.
Councilmember Krebsbach sta.ted tha.t if the approving resolution is
adopted, she would like it to be amended to include information on
the sump pump hook-option at additional cost.
There being no further discussion, Councilmember Smith moved
adoption of Resolution No. 94-94, "RESOLUTION ACCEPTING
ENGINEER'S REPORT, ORDERING IlVIPROVEMENT AND
PREPARATION OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE
RECONSTRUCTION/REHABILITATION IMPROVEMENTS TO
SERVE FRIENDLY HILLS REARR.ANGEMENT,
HASELBURGER ADDITION, SIlVIEK REARRANGEMENT
AND SURROUNDING AREAS (IMPROVEMENT NO. 92,
PROJECT NO. 6," amended to add 1.) that the $7,000 for the nine
residential properties on Dodd Road will be financed by the Storm
Water Utility Fund and that those properties will be deleted from the
project and subject to future assessments and storm water
improvements; and 2) there shall be a sepazate bid item in the
contract to allow connection to the storm sewer main and individual
home owners where possible will be given the option to hook up at
additional cost.
Councilmember Koch seconded the motion.
Councilmember Krebsbach suggested that staff be directed to keep
the neighborhood informed on the timetable for project
construction.
Page No. 4253
December 20, 1994
Council aclrnowledged that Ms. Renee Schmidt appeared to object
to her potential assessment.
CASE NO. 94-06, DAHM Council acknowledged an application from Mr. Keith Dahm for
modified critical azea site plan approval to allow construction of a
• single family home on Lot 1, Block 2, Valley View Oaks (1942
Glen Hill Road).
Councilmember Krebsbach stated that the lot is across from the lots
on the bluff and after the Critical Area Ordinance is revised, it may
fall within the area that may not be as rigorously scrutinized as the
lots on the bluff.
Councilmember Krebsbach moved to approve the modified site plan
for Lot 1, Block 2, Valley View Oaks, to allow construction of a
single family residence at 1942 Glen Hill Road along with waiver of
the $100 application fee, conditioned that the developer carry out the
tree preservation plan, with respect to removal and replacement of
trees, as submitted with the application.

CASE NO. 94-25, MENDOTA Council acknowledged an application for rezoning and conditional
MEADOWS REZONING AND use permit for planned unit development from Mendota. Homes,
CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT for the proposed Mendota Meadows townhouse development, along
with associated staff reports.
1V.�ayor Mertensotto informed the audience that on November 15
Council denied the conditional use pernut because a da.y care center
had been proposed to be developed on one acre of the ten acre site.
He stated that the current proposal is for 36 townhouses on the ten
acre PUD project. He stated that the plans will need to be modified
with respect to the grade of the driveways from the main road to the
garages.
Public Works Director Danielson responded that most of the lots
will have an 8% grade.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that the plan shows up to a 10% grade and
that should be modified. He asked what the legend on the plan
means and whether city staff had notified Mr. Mathern of the
concern voiced by the Bridgeview Shores residents with respect to
the berm along Mendota Heights Road.
Page No. 4254
December 20, 1994
Mr. Mathem submitted current plans, explained the legend and
briefly reviewed the plans. He stated that the new plan stipulates
that no driveway will be allowed to be graded more than eight
percent. He stated that he will be able to berm along part of
Mendota Heights Road, including walk out Lots 1-3 and possibly
Lot 4, but it will not be possible to put a berm behind Lots 5, 6, 7
and 8, and that the landscaping plan includes trees and plantings
along Mendota Heights Road.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that if the berm cannot be accomplished
as originally proposed, one to three of the walk-outs•may have to go.
Mr. Mathern responded that the street elevation to the east of those
lots will mainta.in a flatter slope to the front of the �nits and a rear
elevation that will allow walk-outs. He stated that he believes he
can build the berm and still drain the back yazds of the walk out lots.
Mayor Mertensotto pointed out that the purpose is to establish a
uniform berm along Mendota. Heights Road. '
Mr. Mathern stated that the berm will be three to four feet tall.
Mayor Mertensotto suggested putting in a lower berm along Lots 5-
7 with landscaping on top of it.
Mr. Mathem stated that he will revise the landscape plan to make the
screening along Mendota. Heights Road more dense.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that Council does not know the exact
location where it would like the easement on Pazcel B and pointed
out that there is additional right-of-way wluch would lend itself to a
future right-turn lane from Dodd onto Mendota Heights Road, which
should be shown as right-of-way on the plat for future use if it is
needed. He sta.ted that he would like to proceed this evening with
concept approval for single story townhouses. He suggested
preliminary plan approval subject to the modifications shown on the
plan dated December 20 and the appropriate screening along
Mendota. Heights Road. He stated that there is no definitive
developers agreement or landscaping plan before Council at this
time but preliminary plat approval would allow Mr. Mathern to
proceed and would allow the city to begin the acquisition of the 1.3
acre Parcel B. He explained that after the city receives easements
over that pazcel for signage and the turning lane area, the property
would be conveyed back to the development subject to a
conservation easement. He stated that the plan meets the density
requirement of the MR-PUD district.
Page No. 4255
December 20, 1994
Councilmember Smith asked if the footprint shown on the
preliminary plan is close to what the final footprint will be.
Mr. Mathern responded that it is, that the units will be 42 feet wide
by 16 feet deep and that decks and patios are defined on the plan as
well. He reviewed the design drawings, stating that it is proposed to
construct 36 townhomes, 34 of which are attached as two units and
two that are totally detached. The footprint allows 2400 square feet
per unit, including about 500 square feet of gazage. He stated that
some of the units will have basements and some will have walk-
outs.
Mayor Mertensotto asked where the meters will bey: He also asked if
Mr. Mathem is requesting approval for ornamental street lights.
Mr. Mathern responded that all of the utilities cannot be located in
the beginning because the plans will need to be customized, but it is
anticipated that they will be placed on the side of the buildings for
the most part. He stated that he is requesting city streets and curbs,
sidewalks and street lights, and the design will be the one that
Council has selected in the past.
Treasurer Shaughnessy stated that NSP will directly bill the
association for the costs.
Councilmember Smith stated that she would like to know the
number and location of street lights before final approval.
Mayor Mertensotto pointed out that a park contribution of $750 per
lot is required to be paid before execution of the final plat. He asked
when Mr. Mathem will pay the $30,000 purchase price of Outlot B
Mr. Mathem stated that he has no objection to paying the park
contribution and Outlot B acquisition price before final plat
execution.
A resident of Bridgeview Shores stated that there was no berm
shown on the grading plans as of yesterday even though Mr.
Mathern clearly understood and represented by Mr. Mathern there
would be a berm along the entire length of the project and that a
Planning Commission meeting Mr. Mathern agreed to eliminate the
walk-outs in order to provide the berm. He also asked for
clarification that there will be no rezoning for the property.

Mayor Mertensotto responded that it is quite clear that Council's
priority is for screening Mendota. Heights Road and if it is necessary
to eliminate the walk-outs to achieve the screening, they will have to
be removed. With respect to rezoning, Mayor Mertensotto stated
that it is a practice of the city that prior to the granting of a
conditional use pernut for planned unit development, Council
rezones the land which goes into the P.U.D. so that zoning is in
place. He explained that Council has always changed the underlying
zoning to conespond to the use before changing the use of a
property and stated that MR-PUD zoning density is not to exceed
four units per acre.
The resident stated that the neighbors have some objection to
changing the underlying zoning. He stated that by changing the
underlying zoning, if and when the townhouses cease to be someone
else could come back and develop the land at a much higher density.
Attomey Hart sta.ted that the city ordinance has recently been
changed to provide that a PUD requires a 4/5 vote of the Council
and it can only be developed by 4/5 vote so there is no advantage to
retaining the underlying R-1 zoning. He further stated that it is
unlawful to retain the underlying zoning and a11ow the development
of a properiy that is inconsistent with the underlying zoning.
Mayor Mertensotto asked Mr. Mathern if the project will be uniform
in design and exterior materials.
Mr. Mathern responded that they will be uniform, with the same
exteriors and exterior color.
Mayor Mertensotto pointed out that there will be a requirement that
the exterior materials which aze proposed to be used must be
included in the development plans for the project.
The Bridgeview Shores resident sta.ted that there has been no
submission of proof of the developer's financial ability to take on the
project.
Mayor Mertensotto responded that if the PUD is approved and the
developer should falter, the underlying land owner will take over
and complete the project or find someone else to do so but the
project will have to be completed in accordance with the approved
plans for the PUD. He stated that he does not believe there will be
any risk involved and pointed out that the park contribution and
acquisition price of Parcel B will be paid before final approval.

Staff was directed to be sure to address all of the concerns raised by
the Planning Cominission.
Councilmember Krebsbach sta.ted that it must be very clear that the
understanding is that Mr. Mathern is saying he cannot berm totally
along Mendota Heights Road but is committing to major screening
including dense evergreens where it cannot b bermed, and also that
lantem style street lights will be used and screening will be done
along the back of the exit.
Councilmember Krebsbach moved to direct staff to prepare a
resolution for design concept approval of a 36 townhouse planned
unit development of Mendota Meadows as presented and to grant
preliminary plat approval for the 10.3 acre pazcel in��the manner
Ayes: 5 presented and with the conditions discussed this evening.

PARK COMMISSION Council acknowledged a memo from Administrator La.well
regarding interviews of Park and Recreation Commission
candidates to fill Vicki Katz' unexpired term. Mayor Mertensotto
stated that another candidate, Les Ackerman, has contacted him to
express interest and directed that Mr. Ackerman be added to the list
of candida.tes to interview.
Administrator Lawell informed Council that one of the candidates,
James Peterson, will be out of town from January through March
and will not be available for interview. He sta.ted that a Council
workshop should be held on the Highway 55 Corridor, labor
negotiation issues, economic development organizations and the St.
Paul Water agreement, and suggested that the interviews be
conducted on the same evening.
It was the consensus that the conunission needs to be diversified and
have a balanced perspective with respect to organized sports, etc..
Administrator Lawell indicated that staff would prepare a summary
for Council on the perspective of the current members.
Council directed Administrator Lawell to prepare a recommenda.tion
on potential workshop dates for Council consideration on January
17.
COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilmember Smith stated that a home is being constructed on
Mendota Heights Road with a driveway on Mendota. Heights Road.
She stated that she understands that it is a difficult lot to develop but
it will be the only house that has direct access to the street.
Page No. 4258
December 20, 1994
Public Works Director Danielson respondecl that staff had discussed
with the developer the possibility of providing �access to the lot
directly from Arbor Court but there is a steep grade and there are
significant oaks which would have to be removed.
Councilmember Smith pointed out that the school forest property
lies along Mendota Heights Road and it is not known how that
property will develop. She stated that in the future when there is
such a major deviation from past policy, the issue should be brought
to Council.
There was discussion over the recent cleaz-cutting of trees on the
Garron site. Public Works Director Danielson informed Council
that there is no strong ordinance language by whicl��staff could have
stopped the tree removal but the Planning Commission is currently
looking into prepazation of a tree preservation ordinance.
Councilmember Huber informed Council on the NDC-4
Commission's action with respect to a settlement with Continental
Cablevision on the non-compliance issue.
Councilmember Smith stated that the joint powers agreement allows
for an action by the member cities on issues dealing with the assets
that belong to the cities and it appears that there has been a
significant and material change.
Administrator Lawell was directed to contact NDC-4 to get a copy
of the full report for distribution to the Council.
Councilmember Krebsbach informed Council that she will be absent
from the next Council meeting.

WATER TOWER Council acknowledged a memo from Public Works Director
Danielson regarding the sta.tus of the water tower reconditioning
project.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that the tank was designed and acquired
about 16 yeazs ago from Pittsburg Des Moines and it was always the
city's understanding that it would have to be repainted in the future
at a cost of $175,000 to $180,000. He stated that this is the only
hydro-pillar tank that has vertical flutes, which were installed to
cover the buckling of the outer skin of the tarik. He informed the
audience that this was a concern when the tank was built and it is his
understanding that Pittsburg Des Moines recommended and paid for
the decorative strips as the result of the city's engineering study. He
stated that the estimated cost for painting and reconditioning the
tank is $600,000 - the flutes increase the cost by about $60,000 for
painting and sandblasting.
Mayor Mertensotto recommended that Council direct the Public
Works Director to send a certified letter, over the Mayor's signature,
summarizing the information on the tank to the President of
Pittsburg Des Moines asking for a response in thirty days. He sta.ted
that the city should not have to live with the problem to the extent
that the reconditioning cost is substantially greater because of the
tank defects. He pointed out that Pittsburg Des Moines may want to

MOSQUITO CONTROL Mr. Dave French, Supervisor for the Dakota. County Division of the
Metropolitan Mosquito Control District, and Pete Whebbe, foreman
for field activities in Mendota Heights, gave a video ta.pe and oral
presentation on the mosquito control program in Dakota. County.
Mr. French responded to Council questions regazding how program
success is measured and what benefit the city receives from the tax
dollazs which go to the program.
Responding to a question from Mayor Mertensotto, Mr. Whebbe
informed Council that the DNR has not allowed Mosquito Control
to treat the Gun Club Lake for the last two years, eyen though it is a
mosquito breeding azea. Mr. French stated that his agency is
currently renegotiating its contract with the DNR and, hopefully,
will be allowed to treat the lake.
Mayor Mertensotto asked Mr. French to inform the DNR that the
City Council posed the question and wants to lmow what will be
done. He asked Mr. French to inform the city in writing what he
finds out about Gun Club Lake treatment.
PRIMENET Council acknowledged a letter from Dale Glowa, Senior Vice
President of United Properties, requesting consideration of a design
� modification for the PrimeNet facility to allow Dryvit material to be
used in the entrance way of the PrimeNet building. Council also
acknowledged an associated memo from the City Administrator.
Mr. Glowa informed Council that approval of the use of Dryvit
material on a 40 by 28 foot area in the entrance azea of the building
will mitigate a design problem. He explained that he cannot use the
curved fabricated metal panels which the plan called for and stated
that United Properties has had excellent success with Dryvit.
Responding to Council questions, he stated that the color of the
Dryvit will match the other colors in the building and that it is a
durable material which requires painting in ten to fifteen years. He
stated that he will use the best paint available for the Dryvit
application.
After discussion, Councilmember Koch moved to approve a design
modification for the PrimeNet building to allow aluminum
composition panels in the front entry area to be replaced with Dryvit
in an area with approximate dimensions of 28 feet by 40 feet.

MENDOTA HOMES Council acknowledged a draft developer's agreement and easement
agreement for the Mendota Homes P.U.D.
Mayor Mertensotto informed Council that the developer, John
Mathem, had contacted him for clarification of the due date for
payment of the pazk contribution and purchase price for Outlot B,
and that he informed Mr. Mathern that the amounts would be due
upon execution of the final plat. He further stated that he had
informed Mr. Mathern that the developer's agreement would receive
only limited discussion this evening and that he would be notified
immediately if any Council members had concerns�ver the
agreement.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that he feels that the easement to be
dedicated to the city over Outlot B should be identified as a
conservation easement rather than scenic easement.
Attorney Hart suggested that the developer's agreement should
include language that provides an enforcement mechanism for the
city and also that the city may want to enter into an agreement with
the homeowners' association with respect to removal of the
underbrush. He stated that Mr. Mathern could sign that document
on behalf of the association since he is in control of the association
right now.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that the association will be required to
brush out the wooded area at least three times a year, and if it is not
done the city could contract for the maintenance and bill the
association.
Attomey Hart responded that as the agreement is written it does not
bind the home owners' association.
Mayor Mertensotto suggested that Attorney Hart conta.ct Mr.
Mathern's legal counsel.
Public Works Director Danielson stated that a public hearing on
proposed vacation of Mendota Heights Road excess right-of-way
had been published for this evening. He asked that Council continue
the hearing to January 17, when Mr. Mathern plans to discuss his
final plat and final PUD plan.

PARKS AND RECREATION COD�lISSION MINiTTES
JANIIARY 10, 1995
The regular meeting of the Mendota Heights Parks and Recreation
Commission was held on Tuesday, January 10, 1995, in the City Hall
Large Conferenc� Room, 1101 Victoria Curve. The meeting was called
to order at 6:35 o'clock P.M. The following members present were
Linnell, Libra, Spicer, Damberg and Norton. Commissioner
Kleinglass was excused. Also present were Administrative Assistant
Revin Batchelder and Parks Project Manager Guy Kullander.
APPROVAL OF MINUTES
x•
Approval of the December 13, 1994 Parks and Recreation
Commission minutes was held over until the February meeting.
VALLEY VIE� 8]3IGHTS
TOT LOT
The Parks and Recreation Commission had discussed a request at
their December meeting from Mr. Dave Ayers, of the Valley View
Heights neighborhood, for further improvements at the tot lot
located in the neighborhood. Chair Spicer welcomed Mr. Ayers
and five members of the neighborhood to the meeting.
Spicer stated the Commission had discussed a request for half
court basketball and other improvements at the December
meeting and had requested staff to research referendum
representations and expenditures at Valley View Heights Park
and to invite Mr. Ayers to appear on tonight's agenda to
discuss these improvements.
Mr. Ayers stated that culvert work, grading and fill was
needed to make the park suita.ble, but that these were initial
start up costs prior to the referendum. Mr. Ayers
acknowledged referendum improvements such as threes, signs,
picnic tables, trash receptacles and benches. Mr. Ayers
stated that he had received an initial memo from Parks Project
Manager Kullander describing the costs that have been incurred
to make improvements at the Valley View Heights tot lot since
the referendum. Mr. Ayers stated he believes many of the
costs on this list were start up costs to get the initial park
in place and should not have been included as referendum
costs. He stated that this original request came to City
Council approximately seven years ago when the neighborhood
requested a new play structure.

Mr. Ayers and the Commission discussed the expenditures listed
in this park since 1989. Mr. Ayers stated he feels when these
costs are added up, it does not come to what was promised for
the park. Mr. Ayers stated that thia park and tot lot is used
on a regular basis, however, the use is restricted to little
children. Mr. Ayers stated he felt to revitalize this park a
half court basketball should be added so that youths and
adults can enjoy the park as well. Mr. Ayers stated that an
asphalt court would be acceptable if this makes it cheaper to
install than concrete.
Kullander stated the fill soil in this location is poor and
that it would be necessary to over excavate to correct soils
in order to grade and provide a proper subsurface for a half
court basketball area.
Mr. Ayers stated a half court basketball would be a nice
amenity in the neighborhood and could be used by both adults
and youths. Mr. Ayers stated this would help bring this park
to the level of a regular park as is provided for other
neighborhoods. Mr. Ayers stated he felt this amenity would
help increase the use of this park. Ayers stated the closest
park to the neighborhood is Roger's Lake Park if your child
has out grown the tot lot. Mr. Ayers stated not many parents
are willing to allow their children to travel to Roger's Lake
Park unsupervised.
Administrative Assistant Batchelder explained that he attached
the Capital Improvements Plan to the Parks Commission agenda
packet in order that they can see the improvements that are
planned for the park system for the next five years.
Batchelder stated there are no proposed improvements for
Valley View Heights tot lot other than sealcoating the
adjacent trail. The Commission discussed whether the Valley
View Heights tot lot is actually in the City's park system or
not. Batchelder stated an agreement had been reached with the
Valley View Heights Homeowner's Association whereby they would
maintain the landscaping in the park and that his has not
occurred. Batchelder stated the Homeowner's Association is
not an active Association and the maintenance of this park on
occasion has been done by park crews when the situation
requires it.
Chair Spicer stated the City has done everything for this park
as proposed in the referendum. Spicer stated the referendum
fund has been depleted or is earmarked for current projects.
Spicer stated any improvements would have to be included in
the Capital Improvement Plan.

A resident of the neighborhood stated it seems like this
neighborhood is not being served by any City park. He stated
children have to leave the neighborhood boundaries and cross
busy streets to get to Roger's Lake or Marie Park. He stated
there is a need to include this in the City's park system. He
felt half court basketball was not an expensive proposition
and that the City should move forward with this request.
Chair Spicer stated the Special Park Fund is not a blank check
and is limited because growth is slowing in Mendota Heights.
Rullander stated that the City purchased the play equipment,
and made improvements to this lot, which was acquired as a tax
forfeited lot with the understanding that the Ho�neowner's
Association maintain the park. Chair Spicer stated there is
a possibility that this park may have never been considered an
"official city park" status. Spicer stated the Parks
Commission should request Council make a determination so that
the Commission could consider these proposed expenditures as
part of the Capital Improvement Plan. Spicer stated the
Capital Improvement Plan needs to be reviewed for 1995 at the
February meeting.
Commissioner Damberg stated that this area was designed for
tot lot use which accommodates ages seven and under. Damberg
stated that if a basketball court is put in this park, the
complexion of the park may change and the little kids that use
the park may be forced out by the older children. Mr. Ayers
stated that, quite honestly, that the neighborhood feels the
park would be better used if the complexion of the park
changed. He stated that there is room for a half court
basketball in this location and that, if this was installed,
families could all use the park at the same time. Ayers
stated that older siblings can play basketball when they are
sent down to watch the little children play on the play
equipment.
Chair Spicer stated he was of the mind to send a
recommendation to the City Council that the Council review the
park status of this tot lot so that the Capital Improvement
Plan can address this request for a basketball court. Spicer
stated if the City Council determines that, yes this is an
official facility of the City's park system, then the Parks
Commission can then begin to include proposed improvements in
the Capital Improvement Plan. If the City Council determines
that this is not part of the City's official parks system then
the Parks Commission can look at the referendum money to see
if any of this money would be rema.ining after existing
commitments in order that the City can better attempt to make
referendum improvements that were promised with this area.

A resident of the neighborhood stated he would like to see the
City take over the maintenance of this park because the
Homeowner's Association is not active. Chair Spicer stated if
City Council determines this area has park status then it
would be the City's obligation to maintain it.
Chair Spicer moved to recommend to the City Council that they
consider this park as an active piece of the City's park
system. If the determination is yes, then the Parks and
Recreation Commission will include this in the Capital
Improvement Plan and begin to maintain�this park on a regular
basis. If the City Council's determination is no, then the
Parks and Recreation Commission will begin to�'� examine
potential leftover referendum funding, or other funding
sources, and reconsider this request for a basketball court at
a future date.
Commissioner Linnell stated that the neighbors who are next
door to this park should be contacted for their input.
Commissioner Linnell seconded the motion.
AYES: 5
NAYS: 0
Commissioner Norton stated that she felt it is appropriate to
put this discussion in context and inform the�neighborhood
that they are not the only neighborhood in Mendota Heights
without direct park access. Commissioner Norton stated there
are many priorities and many needs throughout the City that
have already been determined to have priority on the Capital
Improvement Plan. Norton stated there are a few neighborhoods
that are actually isolated from the City's park system and the
City has found it impossible to provide every neighborhood
with their own neighborhood park.
Chair Spicer stated that Valley View
should know within ninety (90) days
discussions. The Commission directed
neighborhood about this request to City
REFLRENDIIM FIINDING
Heights neighborhood
the outcome of these
staff to contact the
Council.
Commissioner Libra distributed a memorandum handout on South
Kensington Park soccer fields. Commissioner Libra stated he
would like this memorandum to be included on the February
agenda for consideration. Commissioner Libra stated he had
met with Sibley Sting Soccer and Mendota Heights Athletic
Association Soccer to discuss the referendum funds that have
been reserved for potentially moving the power poles at South
Parks and Recreation Commission
January 10, 1995
Page 5
Kensington Park. Libra stated that, while both these groups
hate the power lines, they have not interfered with play
enough to justify their movement. However, he stated both
groups would prefer that other improvements be ma.de with this
money. Libra stated the other improvements these groups are
asking for would total $17,000 and that they would ask that
the rema.ining difference between the $17,000 proposed for
improvements and the $25,000 budgeted for the raising of the
power lines be released into the balance of the referendum
fund. Commissioner Libra stated he feels the improvements
that they are proposing be made to South Kensington Park would
have more "bang for the buck° than spending the money on power
line mov�ment. Commissioner Libra stated that in th� interim
prior to the February Parks and Recreation meeting he would be
happy to coordinate meetings with Sibley Sting, Mendota
Heights Athletic Soccer Association and City staff.
T-BALL AT
4PATER TOqPER
The Commission discussed a memorandum from Parks Project
Manager Kullander outlining improvements to the front yard at
the Public Works Facility to accommodate T-Ball fields.
Rullander had estimated a cost for backstops, bases and field
preparation in this area in order to provide two T-Ball fields
would be approximately $2,500.
Commissioner Libra moved to recommend that City Council
instruct staff to prepare a plan to add two T-Ball fields to
the unused grass area east of the Public Works facility for an
estimated cost of $2,500 to be provided from the Special Park
Fund and to be done as soon as possible this Spring.
Commissioner Damberg seconded the motion.
AYES: 5
NAYS: 0
Parks Project Manager Kullander stated that after one full
season of T-Ball use, if it is determined to be necessary,
City staff could cut the sod out and install rec-rock for
permanent base lines at these fields. Kullander stated that
this proposal includes signage that would be posted stating
that this is for T-Ball only use because of the short
distances between the outfields for baseball play. Kullander
inquired about the size of backstops that would be necessary
for T-Ball play and was directed by the Commission that height
of the backstops is not as necessary as the width of backstops
is for this type of play.

Parks Project Manager Kullander stated he has been talking to
four landscape architect firms about requests for proposals
for the improvements at Ivy Hills Park. He stated he would
like the Parks and Recreation Commission to review these
Requests for Proposals at their February meeting in order to�
narrow it down to two landacape architect firms that would
provide formal quotes or proposals for review and choice by
the Commission and Council.
Rullander stated a full sprinkling ban'would be in effect in
the City f rom April or May through July due to the water tower
painting planned for this summer. He stated that �for this
reason, there is no hurry for landscape improvements at Ivy
Hills Park because we will be unable to water what is
installed until later in the summer.
Adminiatrative Assistant Batchelder provided a copy of the
Networks to the River document for the Commission to review.
He stated this copy had been included in an earlier Friday
News and was part of a project being done by the Urban Design
Center at the University of Minnesota. He stated a discussion
of the historic Fort Snelling Mendota area was included in the
Network's to the River document. The Parks and Recreation
Commission discussed the recreational proposals that were
outlined as concept ideas in this document. The Commission
discussed western Resurrection Cemetery and the potential of
tr'ails around Augusta Lake.
The Commission was provided a copy of a summary of Dolan vs
City of Tigard regarding park dedications by City and
municipalities. Batchelder stated that the Supreme Court had
determined that there needs to be an "essential nexus". This
essential nexus would have to exiat between the government's
purpose in requiring a park dedication and the actual
condition imposed by the government. Batchelder stated that
the City would have to keep this in mind as we begin to
explore the park dedication fees.
The Parks Commission discussed an article provided in the
agenda regarding the five legal obligations required of
softball or baseball field operators and liability questions
involving players and spectators.
COI�SISSIONSR REQUEST
Commissioner Linnell stated he is the co-chair on Independent
School District 197's Middle School Referendum Task Force.
Linnell stated he wished to inquire of the Parks Commission if
they were willing to support some type of resolution in
Parks and Recreation Commission
January 10, 1995
Page 7
support of the school referendum. Linnell stated there is a
need for additional field and gym space for the City
recreation programs, as discussed at last month�s meeting.
Commissioner Linnell stated the Friendly Hills site, if the
referendum is successful, would include fields and gym space
and that obviously ISD 197 would want to cooperate on the use
of those fields with the City of Mendota Heights.
Chair Spicer stated he is not confused about what Commissioner
Linnell is asking the Parks Commission to do, however he is
confused about the Parks and Recreation Commission'a role as
an advisory body to City Council and as a non-political body
for this type of recommendation. Spicer stated he �eels the
best approach would an approach whereas "if the referendum is
successful and passes, the City would be intereated in
discussing field and gym use opportunities with the School
District."
Commissioner Damberg stated she feels the Commission cannot
come right out and support or oppose the referendum by the
School District. Commissioner Norton stated that perhaps the
City Parks Commission could adopt a finding stating the City
ia in support of additional resourcea because of needs for
fields and gym space. Norton stated she feels the resolution
could include a"whereas" stating that the community has
demonstrated a need for field and gym space.
Commissioner Damberg stated she could be in favor of something
stated that the Commission would share in the planning of the
fields if the referendum was successful, however, she feels
the Commission could not support the referendum itself. The
Commission discussed their role in supporting the availability
of more facilities and fields.
Commissioner Norton moved to adopt a finding whereby the
Commission would be interested in discussing cooperation on
fields and recreational facilities at a new middle school, if
the referendum is successful.
Commissioner Linnell seconded the motion.
AYES: 5
NAYSs 0
The Commission instructed City staff to inform City Council of
their intent to support cooperation on fields and gym
facilities but not endorsing the school district's referendum.

NORTH RENSINGTON PARK
Joni Giese, landscape consultant, reoriented the Commission to
the original concept plan that had been approved in August.
Joni described the strong features and constraints of the
North Rensington site. Ms. Giese stated the strong points
include a pond, existing trees including many mature oaks, and
topography that draws people into the park. Giese stated
there are wet areas in this park that can be enha�ced for
natural beauty. �
Ms. Giese stated some of the constraints in the
gas pipeline, the overhead power line and the
inflows and outflows in the park. Giese stated
backyards in this area face the park and that
concern expressed about where the backyards end
begins.
park are the
stdrm sewer
that all the
there was a
and the park
Ms. Giese stated the goals of this plan were to design a
passive park along the backyard concept that would have
natural features, accommodate the water movement through the
park and allow for human use. Ms. Giese outlined the approved
concept plan that included the "Bubble Diagram" with separate
picnic rooms throughout the park that allows for water flow to
the pond area.
Ms. Giese unveiled the final plans and stated the pond had
been reconfigured from the concept plan because the pipeline
location blocked the proposed excavation. Ms. Giese stated
the planting plan was slightly changed to move Amur Maples
from underneath the powerlines so that they do not grow up
into the powerlines.
Ms. Giese stated that when Council approved the concept plan
that they had asked her to include the picnic shelter as an
add alternate and had instructed her to move the picnic
shelter closer to the existing US West building which she has
now done. Ms. Giese described the five picnic areas that each
have three sandstone blocks set into the grass and a picnic
table. She stated the sandstone blocks are proposed to be
used from Acacia Cemetery and are to serve as benches.
Ms. Giese outlined the location of the grill and trash
receptacles. Ms. Giese stated the picnic shelter had been
relocated, had been made smaller and moved closer to the US
West building. Giese stated the design of this building has
incorporated the looks of the houses nearby. Ms. Giese stated
this add alternate picnic shelter had enough room for a six
foot (6') picnic table and two (2) sandstone benches
underneath the roof.
Parks and Recreation Commission
January 10, 1995
Page 9 �
Ms. Giese described the detention pond and the water
circulation patterns for both the inflow and outflow of storm
water. Giese described plantings in this area as being
submergent grasses to short prairie grasses with the short
prairies grasses extending to the knolls to define them.
Gieae stated in order to make the drainage work, we would need
to remove fifty feet (50' ) of pipe at the� inflow location.
Ms. Giese stated this was necessary to allow circulation of
water to maximize the cleansing of the storm water for a
cleaner pond.
Ms. Giese described an additional add alternate which is an
overlook along Mendota Heights Road adjacent� to the b�'ike path.
Ms. Giese described this as a sandstone structure whereby we
would be using sandstone block from Acacia Cemetery to create
an overlook into the pond area. Ms. Giese described this
overlook as being 35' by 17' and the sandstone blocks
incorporated into it would be used as benches. Giese stated
this would be a nice sitting area overlooking the pond from
the north. Ms. Giese stated the overlook would be handicapped
accessible. Ms. Giese described sandstone bench locations
throughout the park and described the tree plantings.
Ms. Giese distributed a handout on the cost estimates showing
the total estimated costs for the park construction at
$34,035. The add alternate for the overlook construction
would be an additional $7,400 and the add alternate for the
picnic shelter would be an additional $10,000. Gie�e stated
that with both add alternates the park design would come to
$51,435.
The Parks Commission discussed the costs estimates and methods
of lowering the price. Parks Project Manager Kullander
suggested that the $1, 000 included for picnic tables might not
be necessary as the City has an inventory and stock of picnic
tables. He stated the trash receptacle and grills ma.y also be
items that can be supplied from the City's inventory.
Mr•. Dan Rostratter, of 2483 Stockbridge, stated he was in
opposition to the picnic shelter and in September he had
submitted a petition to the City Council with over sixty (60)
signatures from nearby residents opposed to the inclusion of
a picnic shelter at North Kensington Park. Mr. Rostratter
stated all the neighbors in this area feel this is a very good
design for the park with the exception of the picnic shelter.
Chair Spicer stated the Parks Commission is on record as not
supporting the picnic shelter. Mr. Rostratter stated there
are three major reasons why he is opposed to the picnic
shelter:
Parks and Recreation Commission
January 10, 1995
Page 10
1. The concept of a constrained capital budget and the
necessity for a picnic shelter in this location. Mr.
Rostratter pointed out there are two picnic shelters
located in the south park.
2. Mr. Rostratter stated the location of the picnic shelter
in this area raises safety and security issues.
3. Mr. Rostratter stated that sixty-nine out of aevex�ty-four
residents that had been contacted about this picnic
shelter oppose it and has signed the petition.
Commissioner Linnell inquired of Mr. Rostratter if the
residents that had signed the petition were aware of the size
and relocation of the picnic shelter to a site that is more
acceptable. Linnell stated to enclose one picnic table and
two benches could barely be considered a picnic shelter.
Chair Spicer stated the Parks Commission had agreed that this
is a great, plan without the picnic shelter. Spicer stated
that the overlook included as an add alternate is a very good
idea and would be a real benefit to the park. Spicer stated
this final plan is acceptable and that a very nice job has
been completed.
Commisaioner Linnell stated the original budgeted figure of
$25,000 was a number pulled out of a hat. Linnell stated this
number was reached at the start of the process and what the
Commission should consider is are we meeting the goala for the
park with this design, at this cost estimate. Linnell stated
he would place a higher priority on the development of this
park than the money that is earmarked for tennis at Hagstrom-
King. Linnell stated that a competitive bidding process may
very well bring the price down.
Commissioner Damberg atated that as far as the parks design
goes, the essential construction could be done first with some
of the amenitiea coming at a later date, including picnic
tables, trash receptacles and grills that the City may be able
to supply as part of their normal budget. Damberg stated that
maybe the neighbors in this area could be convinced to buy
some of the trees to help cut costs.
Commissioner Linnell stated he does not believe the picnic
shelter is as bad of a use as it is ma.de out to be. However,
he stated, he does not want force this issue on the
neighborhood if they do not desire this use in the park.
Parks and Recreation Commission
January 10, 1995
Page il
Chair Spicer moved that the Parks and Recreation Commission
recommend to the City Council that the final plans and
specifications be approved with the funding to come from the
remaining referendum money. Commissioner Spicer stated that
his motion includes that no picnic shelter be included with
these final plans based on the fact there is no need for a
shelter in this location and that there is neighborhood
opposition to it. Spicer stated the approval of this plan
should include the add alternate to fund the .proposed
overlook.
Commissioner Norton seconded the motion.

CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS
MEMO
TO: Mayor, City Council, City Adminis a
FROM: Kathleen M. Swanson�/r'�
City Clerk .
SUBJECT: Annual Board of Review
INFORMATION
January 10, 1995
f�
We have received notice from the Dakota County Assessor of the need to schedule the
1995 Boazd of Review meeting. The Assessor has suggested that the meeting be conducted at
7:00 p.m. on Tuesda.y, Apri14. Mr. Pulju's recommendation is consistent with Council's desire
in past years to conduct the Review Board on the same evening as a regulazly scheduled Council
meeting. �
DISCUSSION
Assistant Assessor Bill Peterson has informed us that residential valuations throughout
the city will increase from 5% to 5.5%. This across-the-boazd increase may result in greater
meeting attendance than has occurred in the past few years. It is anticipated, however, that many
properiy owners will attend the county's open book meetings rather than the Board of Review.
While the turn-out may be larger than in the recent past, half an hour should provide
sufficient time both for the Assessor's presentation and his response to Council and general
questions. There is adequate space available throughout City Hall for the Assessor's staff to meet
individually with the property owners while the Council conducts the regular meeting in its
Chambers.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that Council confirm the Assessor's recommended date and time for the
Board of Review meeting.
ACTION REOUIRED
If Council concurs in the recommendation, it should pass a motion to schedule the 1995
Board of Review meeting for 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, Apri14, 1995.

f�
In the 1995 budget pmcess, $2700,0{} was budgeied for the replacement of
pagers. In the past two years the department has purchased Matorola pagers with five
year wattanties and they ha.ve served the department well. We have been informed by
our local Matomla deal.er that they are offering a$40 discaunt per pager if we arder
prior t�o February 1, 1995. This would bring the cast of the pagers to $384.00 each,
which includes a fi�ve year parts and labor wazranty. The dealer has also informed us
that cost of the pagers will increase by $47.00 per pager in Max�h of 1995.
ACTIUN P�E{}UIR�D:
Authorize staff ta purchase seven (7} Motorala pagers at the price af $384.40
each plus tax. The total purcl�ase price being $2,862.72. The additional $162.'72 will
be absorbed in the current budget.

To: Fire Chief John Maczko
From: Radio Committee
Re: Purchase of new pagers
Chief, the fire dept is currently in the third year of a six year pager replacement
program, the radio committee recommends that we continue this program The
motorola pagers that the fire dept has been upgrading to are state of the art and are
serving the dept well.The current cost of the pagers are $424.00 each, this is also the
price we paided last year. The local Motorola dealer has offered a$40.00 discount per
pager if we order before February 1 st, 1995, bringing the cost to $384.00 each,
including a 5 year warranty.The dealer had also informed that the base price of the
pagers will increase $47.00 per pager in March of 1995. With this information in mind
that the committee recommends that we purchases as many pagers as possible at this
low price.

FROM: Guy Kullander, Parks Project Manager ��
SUBJECT: T-Ball Fields at Public Works Facility
��
BACRGRODND
The Mendota Heights Athletic Association (MHAA) requested the
Parks and Recreation Commission to consider developing the unused
grass area east of the Public Works Facility into two small play
fields for Coach Pitch T-Ball. The area in question is City owned
and is approximately nine tenths (9/10) of an acre in size.
In past years, the NhiAA has rented field space outside the
City limits to accommodate the increasing number of participants in
the T-Ball and softball programs. These two fields, it built,
would help to alleviate pressure and demand on the fields used by
the younger age brackets in our neighborhood parks.
Field Desicrn
For the 1995 ball season two backstops would be installed.
The painted lines on the grass will be maintained by the parks
crews to delineate foul and base lines. Following the first season
of use, the park crews will remove turf as necessary at home plate
and along the base lines and install ag-line materials in these
locations. Signs will be installed on the backstop with rules for
the use of the fields, specifically that only T-Ball using
restricted flight balls will be allowed on these fields. No other
improvements are planned for this location. Estimated cost for all
above improvements should not exceed $3,500.
Commission Review
The Commission reviewed the request from MHAA and the
estimated costs at their January 10, 1995 regular meeting. The
Commission determined that this improvement would be a prudent
addition to the City's mix of play fields and will serve the
younger ball players in the community. The Commission vote was 5-0
to recommend that City Council authorize the above improvements to
be fund by the Special Park Fund.
ACTION RE4IIIRED
If Council desires to accept the recommendation of the Parks
and Recreation Commission to develop two T-Ball fields on the grass
area east of the Public Works Facility, they should direct staff to
proceed with the development of the fields. Total cost not to
exceed $3,500 and funding to come from the Special Park Fund.

Subject:� T-Ba21 Fields at Pub2ic Warks Maintenance Facility
Use of the grass area east of the Public Works Ga=age for
T-Ball fields wouid reguire the installation of two baekstaps�
at a minimun. The grass could be maintained on a regular basi�
as are the other city ball fields. Painted foul lines and staked
bases should be adaquate for this leve2 of play. Estimatea cost
for back staps, bases, �ield preperation would be approximaetly
$2,540. '
Remaval of existing turf and instal3ation of ag-lime for
base paths and batters boxes wauld add another.$1,000 to �he
cost but would require aonsiderably more maintenance time and
expense on the part of the park maintenance crews.
RECOMMENDATI�N
I recommend the commission consider only tha insta3lation
of backstops and use of painted Iines for the first year. If
the fields work out the installation of ag-lime could go ahead
aftes the T-Bali seasan is aver.
ACTION REQUIRED
If the commission so desires they should determine a funding
source recommandation and request council �o instruct staff ta
prepare a plan to add two T�-Ball fi.elds on the unused grass area .
east of the Pubiic Works Facility.

MEMO
January 10, 1995
TO: Mayor, City Council, City A
FROM: Kathleen M. Swanson
City Clerk
SUBJECT: Temporary Liquor License
INFORMATION
On Friday, March 3 and Saturday, Mazch 4, the Convent of the Visitation will hold its
annual Merrie Market Auction at Visitation School. The Merrie Mazket representatives would
like to offer beer and wine on Friday evening and a full bar and wine in conjunction with a
catered tiinner on Saturday evening. The Auction Chair has request that the City authorize a
temporary liquor license for the event.
DISCUSSION
In past yeazs, Council has granted temporary liquor licenses for the Merrie Market event.
Issuance of temporary licenses, for a duration of no more than three days, is authorized by State
Sta.tute. As in past years, Visitation will hire an off-duty Mendota Heights police officer to be
present on both evenings of the event for safety reasons. Visitation will also provide proof of its
insurance coverage.
To my knowledge, no problems have ever occurred in connection with the sale of liquor
at Visitation's Merrie Market event.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend that Council authorize the issuance of a temporary on-sale liquor license,
without license fee, to Visitation Convent for Mazch 3 and March 4, 1995 in connection with the
Merrie Mazket Auction.
ACTION REQUIRED
If Council concurs in the recommendation, it should pass a motion authorizing the
issuance of a temporary on-sale liquor license to Visitation Convent for March 3 and 4, 1995 in
connection with the Merrie Market Auction, along with waiver of any license fee.

SUBJECT: Sign Permits for Dakota Bank - 750 South Plaza•Drive
{
SignArt has submitted aign permits on behalf of Dakota
Bank(formally Dakota County State Bank). The bank is changing its
name and wishes to have their four (4) existing signs to reflect
their new name (see site plan and photos of existing signs).
DISCIISSION
Two of the proposed signs (Sign Nos. 2& 3) are signs that
were reviewed and approved by City Council in 1989 and 1990 through
a variance procedure. The variances allowed two twenty-eight (28)
square foot signs to be located at the west and east entrances of
the bank adjacent to the north lot line (see site plan attached).
The sign (Sign 1) on the north face of the bank building is
4 x 12 which equals 48 square feet. The B-1 Zoning District allows
a maximum of 50 square feet per face. The off site sign (Sign 4)
is 6'6" x 13'9" which contains 89.38 aquare feet. The B-4 Zoning
District where this sign is located allows a maximum 100 square
feet of sign surface.
RECONIl�NDATION
I recommend that Council approve the permits as requested to
change the sign faces on the four existing signs reflecting the new
name Dakota Bank.
ACTION REQIIIRED
If City Council wishes to implement the above recommendation
to approve the requested sign permits, a motion should be passed
authorizing staff to issue the four (4) sign permits to SignArt.

CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS
January 1 , 1995
To: Mayor, City Council and City Admuris
From: Kevin Batchelder, Administrative As�i�
Subject: Park Commission Finding Supporting 7oint Planning of Recreational Facilities
at Proposed Middle School in Mendota Heights.
DISCUSSION ,��
At the request of Commissioner Linnell, the Parks and Recreation Commission
discussed the possibility of adopting a resolution of support for Independent School District
197's proposed referendum for a Middle School at the Friendly Iiills site. Commissioner
Li.nnell is a Co-Chair of a task force that has been working on the Middle School
referendum.
The Parks and Recreation Commission felt that it was not appropriate for their
commission, as an advisory bady to City Couacil, to come out in support or opposition of
the School District's proposed referendum. The Parks and Recreation Commission felt their
role should be restricted to one of reviewing parks and/or recreation issues.
In this vein, the Commission felt it was appropriate that the City share in the planning
of any athletic fields, recreational facilities or gymnasiums that might be built at the Middle
School, should the referendum be successful. The Commission felt that school grounds often
provide opportunities for facilities that can serve the broader community and that there is a
need in Mendota Heights for more fields and gym space.
RECOIVIlVIENDATION
The Parks and Recreation Commission voted 5-0 to establish the following finding:
1. Independent Schaol District 197 is proposing to build a new Middle School at the
Friendly Hills site in the City of Mendota Heights; and
2. School sites often provide many opportunities for athletic fields and recreational
facilities for use by the whole community; and
3. The youth athletic organizations within the community of Mendota Heights have
repeatedly voiced a need for additional athletic fields and recreational facilities; aad
4. The City of Mendota Heights and Independent School District 197 have cooperated
in the past to provide athletic fields and recreational facilities for the use of
community residents; and
5. Past cooperation has proven beneficial for both adult and youth recreational
participants; and '
6. That joint planning of any potential athletic fields and recreational facilities would be
beneficial to district residents; and
7. The Parks and Recreation Commission of the City of Mendota Heights would be
interested in discussing the utilization of facilities by the broader community at the
proposed Friendly Hills Middle School, should the future referendum be successful.

TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Tom Lawell, City Administ
SIIBJECT: 1994 Pay Equity Report
DISCIISSION
In 1984 the State Legislature adopted the Local Government
Pay Equity Act which ma.ndated that all units of local government
review their personnel pay practices to insure that "reasonable
compensation relationships" exist between comparable ma.le and
female dominated work classes.
In accordance with the State law, the City of Mendota
Heights reported the results of its pay equity analysis in
January 1992 and the State Department of Employee Relations
(DOER) subsequently found that the City was in full compliance
with the Pay Fquity Act.
The Pay Equity Act also provides that local governments must
resubmit to DO£R every three years a report which shows continued
compliance with the Act. As such, our 1994 Pay Equity
Implementation Report is due by January 31, 1995. Attached
please find a completed copy of the report which was prepared in
accordance with the instructions provided by DOER.
RECOD�NDATION
Since 1992 there have been no ma.jor changes in the City's
personnel pay practices and therefore, I expect that the City
will again be found to be in full compliance with the Pay Equity
Act. The City is required by State Statue to submit the attached
statistical information and I recommend that the Council approve
the proposed report for submittal.
ACTION REQIIIRED
Council should adopt a motion approving the attached Pay
Equity Implementation Report for submittal to the Minnesota
Department of Employee Relations by January 31, 1995, and
authorize the Mayor to sign the report as necessary.

CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS
MEMO

TO: Mayor, City Council and City Ad '' tr
FROM: James E. Danielson, . . .
Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Public Improvements for Kensington �
DISCUSSION•
The Kensington Planned Unit Development Developer's Agreement was executed between
Centex Homes and the City on September 30, 1991 and provided for Centex Homes to install all
the public improvements for their development. Upon completion of the work, City staff would
perform a final inspection of the work and bring final approval and acceptance before the City
Council for formal acceptance by resolution. This final acceptance begins the one year warranty
period (from defects), but turns over the maintenance and repair duties to the City.
RECOMI��NDATION:
The City of Mendota. Heights and St. Paul Water Utility have performed final inspections
of the public improvements for all of Kensington PUD, and with the exception of one slightly
shallow fire hydrant lead, finds them to be acceptable. The developer has agreed in writing to
lower the hydrant lead during the 1995 construction season. I recommend that the City accept
the Kensington PUD public improvements for maintenance and repair purposes.
ACTION REQUIRED:
If Council desires to implement the recommendation, they should pass a motion adopting
Resolution No. 95- , RESOLUTION APPROVING AND ACCEPTING THE
KENSINGTON PUD PUBLIC IlVIPROVEMENTS.

DISCUSSIUIV:
J'anuary 12, 1994
��
The Bobsts, 676 Callaha.n Place, received preliminary g2at approval from City Council an
September 23, 1993, ta subdivide their large single faxnily lot and create a new flag lot in their
rear yard. The Bobsis have now submitted a final plai for approval {see attached).
The preliminary plat was approved subject to the following conditions:
l. That appropriate easements be incorporated within the plat. This canditian has
been satisfied.
2. That the location of the new house to be cansmucted an the flag lot be consistent
with the lacation shown an the preliminary plat. The Bobsts do not pian to
canstruct a new home on this lat immediately, so staffwill have to insure
compliance of this requirement at the time house plans are submitted.
3. That Mr. �Villiam Knaus, the Bobsts neighbor to the north, and whose lot is
contributing a strip af land to the plat, sign the p1at. This requirement was
established to ensure that the City knew that Mr, Knaus consented to the plat and
that Mr. Knaus' mortgager was willing to grant partial release of his lot.
The Bobsts would prefer to handle this land transaction separate and not have Mr. Knaus
sign the plat. They ask that they be able to acquire Mr. Knaus' Iand by means of a sepa.rate deed.
They would also obtain written confirmation from Mr. Kt�aus' mortgager that they are in
agreement with the proposal.
The Bobst also need to pay a$754 park dedication fee and a$6,877.50 utility connection
charge (see attached} prior to execution of the final plai by the City.
�
RECOMMENDATION:
Subject to the City agreeing to amend condition three and allow the Bobsts to handle the
land transaction with their neighbor to the north by means of a separate deed and subject to
receipt of a park dedication fee and utility connection charge, I recommend that the final plat be
approved as prepared. '
ACTION REQUIRED•
If Council desires to implement the recommendation, they should pass a motion adopting
Resolution No. 95- , RESOLUTION APPROVING FINAL PLAT FOR BOBST
ADDITION, subject to receipt of a copy of a deed and letter from the mortgager of the property
owner to the north and payment of the pazk dedication fee and utility connection charge.

TO: Mayor, City Council and City Admini
FROM: John P. Maczko
Fire Chief
SUBJECT: Chief s Vehicle
DISCUSSION:
January 11, 1994
�
�n t1�e 1995 budget process, $22,0(}0 was approved for the purchase of a new
Chief s vehicle. The Capital Replacement Plan recommended that the vehicle should
be a 4 wheel drive vehicle large enough to transport firefighters to meetings, schaols
and conferences, and have the payload capacity great enough to carry necessary
firefighting equipment. It was my intent to go with a full size Suburban, however, at
an average bid price of $30,000 the budget does not allow the purchase. Researching
many of the sunounding departments, I have found that they have utilized the mid-
sized sport utility vehicle with success. We have received four bids on this type of
vehicle.
Pazk 7eep/Eagle
Polar Chevrolet
(if ordered by 1/20/95)
Iten Chevrolet
Arrow Pontiac/GMC
RECOMMENDATION:
1995 7eep Cherokee (4 Door)
1995 Blazer (4 Door)
1995 Blazer (4 Door)
1995 7immy (4 Door)
$21,276.00
$21,353.00
$22,974.00
$23,650.00
I recommend that the low bid of Park 7eep/Eagle not be accepted due to the fact
that the shift lever is mounted on the floor thus making radio installation more diff'icult.
Since Public Works is familiar with GM products relating to the maintenance of
this vehicle and there is only a$77.00 difference in price, I recommend that the bid be
awarded to Polar Chevrolet for their bid amount of $21,353.00
ACTION REOUIRED•
If Council concurs with the recommendation they should pass a motion
awarding the bid to Polar Chevrolet for a total purchase price of $21,353.00. Since
this vehicle will be used as an emergency response vehicle on the department, it is
exempt from sales tax.

VARIANCF
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Mansfield, of 1300 Wachtler Avenue, were
present to discuss their request for a five foot side yard
setback variance which would allow the construction of a
dining room addition to the north of their home.
Vice Chair Duggan stated that all signatures of consent have
been received. He further explained that this property is
also in the Critical Area Overlay District and that this
application will have to receive Modified Site Plan review
when it appears on the City Council's agenda. He stated that
the Planner hag informed the Commission that there appears to
be no impact to the Critical Area standards because the
addition is between two existing homes.
Vice Chair Duggan reviewed the requirements necessary in
receiving a variance and what constitutes a hardship.
Mr. Ma.nsfield explained that he would like to construct an
addition which would serve the purpose of a dining room. He
stated that the location of the addition is due to the
location of the kitchen. He stated the exterior materials
will match the existing materials of the house. He stated
there are no plans to landscape. He stated his neighbor to
the north had recently installed small trees.
e `
Duggan noted the Planner's concern for proper drainage.
Mansfield stated his neighbor's garage is ten feet (10') from
the edge of the property. He stated there is a three foot
(3' ) drop in grade and that it runs from the east to west. He
stated there is a swale and the he plans to continue
maintaining it. Mansfield further explained there is a tree
right on his property line and that the addition will be six
feet (6' ) from the tree. Mansfield stated that due to the
location of the power pole and tree, the addition will be
constructed to the east.
In response to a question from Commissioner Koll, Mr.
Mansfield stated there will �be no new windows on the northside
at the addition. In response to a question regarding snow
storage, Mr. Mansfield stated his neighbor only plows the snow
to his own garage and that there is still some driveway left
along the side of the garage. He stated that hisX� neighbor
does not store vehicles on the remaining driveway. He stated
there should be no problem with storing extra snow in this
area. Commissioner Roll stated that the neighbor's driveway
was constructed too close to the property line.
Commissioner Friel inquired if Mr. Mansfield considered
alternatives which would eliminate a need for such a
significant variance. Mr. Mansfield responded that there is
no room to the east of the house to construct an addition.
In response to a question from Commissioner Friel, Planner
Uban stated he had general questions regarding the maintenance
of the exiating swale should the addition be constructed.
In response to a question from Commissioner Betlej regarding
landscaping, Mr. Mansfield stated that his neighbor to the
north of his property planted several trees earlier this year
and that there is no more room to install additional trees.
He stated there is existing landscaping in the front yard
that will not be disturbed by this addition. Commissioner
Betlej stated that the front of the addition may look better
with additional landscaping and that it may help with the
drainage.
Commissioner Lorberbaum stated she had visited the site. She
e�plained that she toured the interior and saw where the
kitchen is located and how the addition will help keep the
flow of traffic intact. She stated that by visiting the site,
she understands why the Mansfield's are requesting a variance
for their addition.
Commissioner Tilsen stated the Mansfield's have made their
problem clear, however a hardship needs to be presented. Mr.
Mansfield's stated he has a very large family and that he
needs more room to accommodate all of them. Commissioner
Tilsen stated that the Ordinance is in place to help protect
the construction of buildings so close to lot lines.
�
Vice Chair Duggan stated the scale on the plan is inaccurate.
Mr. Mansfield stated that he has drawn the plan to scale.
Vice Chair Duggan stated that the jog in the fence is not
accurately shown on Mr. Mansfield's pl�an. He further inquired
if there is a shed located on his property. Mr. Mansfield
responded there is no other building his property.
Vice Chair Duggan inquired if Mr. Manafield's neighbor has had
an opportunity to review his plans . Mr. Mansfield stated yes .
Mr. Mansfield further stated that there has never been any
drainage problems. He explained there are two retaining walls
in the backyard and that he has never had any problem with
water ponding due to a heavy rainfall. .
Commissioner Friel stated that the Mansfield's have not
demonstrated a hardship in accordance with the Zoning
Ordinance. Mrs. Mansfield stated that their hardshi'p is that
there is not enough room within their home to accommodate a
large gathering. She stated that it is not realistic for a
house of this size to not have a dining room. Vice Chair
Duggan responded that the ManSfield's bought this house
knowing its limitations. He noted his concerns for precedent
setting in granting this variance request. Commissioner Friel
stated that this problem applies to most people in the
community and by granting this variance makes the ordinance
regulations meaningless. ."
Vice Chair Duggan inquired if the Ma.nsfield's would consider
an alternate plan. Mrs. Mansfield responded that it has been
suggested that the addition be brought out to the rear of the
home. She stated that this is not possible because of the
location of the swimming pool. Vice Chair Duggan stated that
the Mansfield's own a large lot that is very long but not very
wide and that they are trying to do too much width wise.
Commissioner Friel moved to recommend that the City Council
deny the request for a variance.
Commissioner Tilsen seconded the motion.

VARIANC]3 FOR REAR YAI2D 5i3TBACK
�
Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Skjerven, of 691 Cheyenne Lane, were
present to discuss their request to build a 14 by 14 foot
three season porch which would extend into the rear yard
setback with only nineteen feet (19') remaining between the
proposed addition and the rear lot line.
Vice Chair Duggan explained that this home was built after the
adoption of the Wetland Ordinance in 1974. He explained that
r �
no wetlands permits were required of this particular
subdivision or home although it abuts Friendly Ma.rsh Park to
the north. He explained that City staff has determined upon
reviewing the Official Wetland Map, that the wetlands to the
north lie more than one hundred feet (100') from the proposed
addition.
Vice Chair Duggan stated that the Skjerven's have received all
signatures of consent.
Mr. Skjerven stated it has always been their intent to
construct a porch. He explained that currently they are using
their backyard a basic patio and that due to the marsh, there
is a significant problem with bugs. He stated �that he
understands that the City is trying to conserve open space and
that by constructing their porch, as proposed, it will not
infringe on what the City is trying to accomplish. Vice Chair
Duggan stated what if all other homes want to do the same as
the Skjerven's. Vice Chair Duggan further stated that more
accurate plans need to be drawn.
Commissioner Tilsen stated that the Skjerven's lot has some
special considerations and that there will never be anything
built on the ma.rsh.
Commissioner Lorberbaum stated there are a number of three
season porches in this area. She �further inquired about
exterior building materials. Mr. Skjerven responded the
materials will be the same as the house.
Commissioner Betlej inquired about the hardship. Mr. Skjerven
responded that the size of his lot is his hardship.
Commissioner Koll pointed out that the home was built within
three feet (3') of the rear yard setback. Planner Uban
pointed out that without this variance, no addition to the
rear portion of the home would be allowed. Uban pointed out
that a screened gazebo could be constructed without a
variance. He stated that a variance is needed if the addition
is connected to the house. He further stated the size of a
gazebo would be limited to 144 square feet.
Commissioner Koll stated that Mr. Skjerven is unable to use
his backyard due to the mosquitos. In response to a question
from Commissioner Friel, Public Works Director Danielson
stated that the City owns Friendly Hills Marsh.
Commissioner Koll noted her concern for setting precedence in
granting this variance. She inquired if Mr. Skjerven would
consider a smaller addition thus reducing the size of the
variance request. Mr. Skjerven stated that they had decided
to construct a 14 by 14 screened porch but that a 16 by 12
porch addition would be an acceptable compromise.
Commissioner Friel stated that should a free standing
j�
AYES:
NAYS:
1
structure be built, it would have to be at least five feet
(5') from the house. Friel stated that if the Commission
insists on the Skj erven' s complying with the ordinance and not
granting a variance, the result�might be to building a 12 by
12 free standing structure five feet (5') from the house.
A brief discussion ensued regarding whether or not the
addition could be placed elsewhere.
Commissioner Friel stated that the Skjerven's have presented
a practical difficulty and that they have consented to
minimize the variance request by making the addition 16 by 12.
Commissioner Lorberbaum noted that the Planning Commission
needs to be consistent in granting variances. She stated the
Mansfield's request for a variance was denied because they
were unable to present a hardship. She stated the C�mmission
is considering the Skjerven's variance request based on the
fact that they are unable to use their backyard because of
mosquitos. Commissioner Friel stated that a detached
structure could be built which would encroach the setback
requirement and that this variance request does not seem
inappropriate. Chair Duggan responded that the Planning
Commission reviews requests each on their own merit and on a
case-by-case basis.
Commissioner Friel moved
grant an eleven foot (11')
to the applicant reducing
as it extends to the rear
to recommend that the City Council
rear yard setback variance subject
the size of the three season porch
of the yard.
Vice Chair Duggan directed the applicants to submit a revised
and accurate plan.
Vice Chair Duggan seconded the motion.

CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS
MEMO
January 10, 1995
TO: Mayor, City Council, City Admini t
FROM: Kathleen M. Swanson
City Clerk
SUBJECT: Equipment Purchase
INFORMATION
x•
The 1995 Administration equipment budget includes $2,000 for the purchase of a new
computer scanner and text scanning software. The purpose of this memo is to request
authorization to purchase the equipment.
DISCUSSION
. The scanner will be used extensively for prepazation of the Heights Highlites and for
scanning text documents, such as state statutes and old resolutions, minutes, etc., into word
processing programs. The scanner will save us considerable time, and hopefully money as well,
by giving us the ability to scan ordinances in prepazation for ordinance recodification.
The Hewlett-Packazd Scanjet IICX has received the highest reviews of the 24 bit flatbed
color scanners. Its price is very competetive with other scanners on the market, and HP is
currently offering a$150 manufacturer's rebate, which makes it less expensive than compazable
scanners. I have therefore only asked from Hewlett-Packard dealers - Crabtree Companies, CDP,
and MicroAge. The quotes for the Scanjet IICX and an automatic document feeder ranged from
$ 1,474.00 to $1,498.00, plus sales tax. The quote from Cra.btree is $1,488.00 (plus tax).
Although it is not the lowest bid, Crabtree offered free delivery and on-site set-up ($50.00 cost) if
needed. Since we have had excellent service from Crabtree (formerly Dodd Technical) in the
past, and its salesperson is a Mendota. Heights resident, I would prefer to purchase the equipment
from them. After rebate direct from the manufacturer, the actual price for the equipment,
including sales tax, will be $1434.72.
RECOMMENDATION
I recommend the purchase of a Hewlett-Packaxd Scanjett IICX scanner and automatic
docu.ment feeder from Crabtree Companies for its quote of $1,584.72.
ACTION REOUIRED
If Council concurs in the recommendation, it should authorize the issuance of a purchase
order to Crabtree Companiesfor a Scanjet IICX scanner and document feeder for its quote of
$1,488.00 plus tax.

Mn/DOT acquired the right-of-way for Mendota Heights Road as part of their I-494

Meadows, as shown on the attached map, is excess and should be vacated and returned to private

CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS
1VIII�ZO
January 13, 1994
TO: Mayor, City Council and City A
FROM: 7ames E. Daniels , and Kevin Batchelder
Public Works D' Administrative Assistant
SUBJECT: Mendota Meadows .
Rezoning, PUD and Fina1 Plat
Case No. 94-25
��
DISCUSSION:
Mr. John Mathern, Mendota Homes, appeared before the December 20, 1994 City
Council meeting to present his Mendota Meadows Townhome proposai as modified to exclude
the Day Care Facility. At that meeting Council reviewed the plan with Mr. Mathern and
accepted comments and questions from the audience. There was a generai consensus of the
Council that Mr. Mathern's amended proposal, with some minor changes, was acceptable. He
was asked to make those changes aad staff was directed to prepare the appmpriate resolutions
for approval of the proposal. The issues that need to be addressed are as follows:
• Rezoning from R 1 to MR-PUD
• Final Development Plan Approval and a Conditional Use Permit for a Planned
Unit Development
• Final Plat Approval
• Developer's Agreement
• Land Transaction Approval (purchase of Outlot B from R. Putnam and resale to
Mendota Homes)
• Public Improvements
• Vacation of excess Mendota Heights Road right-of-way public heari.ng
Rezonin�
The rezoning from R-1 to MR PUD does need to occur as developments need to be
consistent with their underlying zoning. As reviewed by City Council on I3ecember 20, 1994,
the impervious surface and densiry requirements of the MR PUD guidelines have been met.
Rezoning needs to be approved by a 4/5 majority vote.
Conditional Use Permit for Planned Unit Development
On December 20, 1994, the City Council granted concept approval for the proposed
PUD plan. The PUD Ordinance requires both Preliminary Development Plan Approval and
Final Development Plan Approval. Final Development Plan approval may occur in lieu of
Preliminary Plan Approval, as per Section 22.8 and that is the approach being proposed for
Mendota Meadows.
Final Development Plan approval requires a 4/5 majority vote by City Council.
Approval of a Developer's Agreement must be listed as a condition of Final Development Plan
Approval. This condition has been included in the proposed CUP resolution that has been
attached.
The grading plan has been modified to remove the reference to 10 � maximum
driveway grades and all driveways are now 8� or less. A landscape berm has been added
along Mendota Heights Road behind Units 1-4 in Black 2. Staff has researched the Planning
Commission's site plan concems and they have all been addressed in the final plans, as
revised.
�nal Plat
�-
A final plat has been submitted to implement the Planned Unit Development as
proposed. The plat contains all the appropriate easement and right of-ways including a
tria.ngle added at the intersection of Trunk Highway 149 and Mendota Heights Road for ease in
construction of a possible free right turn lane.
Developer's Agreement/Conservation Easement
Attached are a proposed Developer's Agreement and Conservation Easement that were
reviewed by Council at their 7anuary 3, 1995 meeting. City Attorney Hart has also reviewed
and amended the documents to meet with his approval..
Land Transaction
Council has previously approved of a purchase agreement with Mr. Richard Putnam for
the City to acquire Outlot B. The closing date for that agreement was set to be no later than
7anuary 20, 1995, however a closing date has not yet been established.
Public Improvements
Mr. Mathem has indicated that he intends to petition the City to design and construct
the public improvements for this development. That petition will be put before Council at its
next meeting. City Engineeri.ng will then proceed to design and construct the street and
utilities to serve the site. The design will include lighting, which will be the City's Standard
Ornamental Lighting and will he put before Council for review and approval once a layout has
been determined. All costs for the project will be assessed back against the townhomes.
Street Vacation
Mn/DOT acquired the right-of-way for Mendota Heights Road as part of their I-494
project. Because the lacation of Mendota Heights Road would have left an "add" shaped piece
of property at its intersection with Trunk Highway 149, they acquired a larger area than
needed. Tlus excess right-of-way needs to be vacated and made part of Outlot B for
maintenance purposes. The hearing considering that vacation should be conducted
immediately following these praceedings.
ACTION RF.QUIItED:
Review the proposai with the applicant, make aay final �changes or conditions and then
if Council desires to approve the proposal, pass motions adopting the following:
I f�
1. Resolution No. 95-_, RESOLUTION APPROVING REZONING FROM
R-1 TO MR-PUD A1VD A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A
PLANNED iTNIT DEVELOPMENT FOR MENDOTA MEADOWS
2. Resolution No. 95-_, RESOLiTTION APPROVING THE FINAL PLAT
FOR MENDOTA MEADOWS
3. Accepting and Approving the Developer's Agreement and authorizing the
Mayor to execute the agreement on behalf of the City.
4. Approving the conservation easement.

City of Mendota. Heights
Dakota County, Minnesota
RESOLUTION NO. 95-
RESOLUTION APPROVING REZONING FROM R 1 TO MR-PUD
AND A CONDITIONAL USE PERIVIIT FOR A PLANNED iTNIT
DEVELOPMENT FOR MENDOTA MEADOWS
WHEREAS, Mr. John Mathern, Mendota Homes, has applied for a rezoni.ng from R-1
to MR PUD for the 10. 83 acre site located in the southeast quadrant of Dodd Road- (Trunk
Highway 149) and Mendota. Heights Road; and
WHEREAS, Mr. Mathern has also applied for a Conditional Use Permit for a Planned
Unit Development to allow for construction of a thirty-six (36) unit townhouse project together
with a day care facility; and
+� S, the Mendota Heights Planning Commission conducted the required public
hearings to consider Mr. Mathern's proposal at their August 23, 1994, September 27, 1994
and October 25, 1994 meetings; and
WHEREAS, based upon concerns for the public health, safety and welfare and the
following specific requests:
1. It fails to meet the impervious surface requirements of Section 22 and in fact
exceeds them by 20 percent (22.1B).
2. It fails to meet the density requirements of Section 22 utilizing for that purpose
the calculation process of Section 22.3(3) and applying the MR PUD
requirement of not more than four units per calculated acre.
3. Even assuming that a variance from the impervious surface requirements and/or
the density requirements of Section 22 was permitted, the applicant has
presented no evidence of hardship and in fact has advised the Planning
Commission that his failure to meet those requirements is entirely for the
' economic advantage of additional units which Ordinance clearly indicates is not
a justification for variance.
4. It is the finding of the Planning Commission based on the evidence before it that
the traff'ic generated by a proposed day care center to serve 117 children and the
proxi.mity of its entrance to Trunk Highway 149 is inconsistent with the
maintenance of public safety and health at the intersection of Mendota Heights
Road and Dodd Road, and in fact increases a public safety problem.
5. There is a clear lack of any hard evidence before the Planning Commission to
support the requirement of Section 22 that adequate funding is available to the
applicants to complete the project.
the Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend denial of the request; and
WHEREAS, the City Council at its November 15, 1994 meeting based upon the
Planning Commission's recommendation, voted to deny Mr. Mathern's request, but allow him
to make a new revised application directly to the City Council that would remove the Day

RESOLUTION APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A PLANNED
iJNIT DEVELOPMENT FOR MENDOTA MEADOWS
WH��REAS, Mr. John Mathern, Mendota Homes, has applied for a Conditional Use
Permit for a Planned Unit Development to allow for construction of a thirty-six (36) unit
townhouse project together with a day caze facility; and '
WHEREAS, the Mendota. Heights Planning Commission conducted the required public
hearings to consider Mr. Mathern's proposal at their August 23, 1994, September 2?; 1994 and
October 25, 1994 meetings; and
WHEREAS, based upon concerns for the public health, sa%ty and welfare and the
following specific requests:
1. It fails to meet the impervious surface requirements of Section 22 and in fact
exceeds them by 20 percent (22.1B). �
2. It fails to meet the density requirements of Section 22 utilizi.ng for that purpose
the calculation process of Section 22.3(3) and applying the MR-PUD requirement
of not more than four units per calculated acre.
3. Even assuming that a variance from the impervious surface requirements and/or
the density requirements of Section 22 was permitted, the applicant has presented
no evidence of hardship and in fact has advised the Planning Commission that his
failure to meet those requirements is entirely for the economic advantage of
additional units which Ordinance cleazly indicates is not a justification for
variance.
4. It is the finding of the Planning Commission based on the evidence before it that
the traffic generated by a proposed day caze center to serve 117 children and the
proximity of its entrance to Trunk Highway 149 is inconsistent with the
maintenance of public safety and health at the intersection of Mendota Heights
Road and Dodd Road, and in fact increases a public safety problem.
5. There is a clear lack of any hard evidence before the Planning Commission to
support the requirement of Section 22 that adequate funding is available to the
applicants to complete the project.
� the Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend denial of the request; and
�
� WHEREAS, the City Council at its November 15, 1994 meeting based upon the
Planning Commission's recommendation, voted to deny Mr. Mathem's request, but a11ow him to
make a new revised application directly to the City Council that would remove the Day Care
facility; and
WHEREAS, Mr. Mathem has now submitted a modified plan that eliminates the Day
Caze facility and meets the City's impervious surface requirements and density requirements; and
WI�REAS, this final plan is an effective and unified treatment of the development
possibilities and preserves the unique natural amenities of the azea; and
WHEREAS, this final plan has been designed to harmonize with the sunounding
adjacent area; and
��
WHEREAS, appropriate financing is available to assure completion of the plan.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Mendota.
Heights grant a Conditional Use Pernut for a Planned Unit Development for Mendota. Meadows

DISCIISSION
Variance/CAO
r�
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Ma.nsfield appeared before the Planning
Commission at their December meeting to present a request for a
five foot (5') side yard variance and, because the home is located
within the Critical Area, that review was to also be conducted. At
the meeting, the Planning Commission expressed concerns about the
request because of a nearby tree, the neighbor's driveway that is
constructed on the lot line and drainage. The Planning Commission
did not feel a hardship was demonstrated and voted to recommend
denial.
Since the Planning Commission meeting, I have spoken with Mrs .
Mansfield and ahe reaffirmed their atrong desire to convince the
City to allow their variance. Upon her reviewing the Ordinance
again, she admits that they may have a weak se for a hardship,
however, she feels they do have a case for a ctical difficulty,
which is also allowed. She also indicated t at the size of the
variance could possibly be slightly reduced.

Mr. Rob�t 11ti�elci of I300 Wachtier Avenue desires to buitd a diining roam addition on the north
side of his home. B�ding this addition oa the rear of the hona.e is more diffiicult due to a pool, a deck
� with a spa and me�hanical equipment consu�ning the rear yard.
This properiy is atso in the Criticat Area Over�ay District and t�his applicatian will hav� to receive
M,�dified Site Plau revievcr when it appears oa the City Council's agenda. The P�a�aning Commission
shouid conduct an iufarmal review of the Critical Area standards to assist council in its review.
Because this is an addition between two e�nsting homes, there appears to be no impact to the Critical
Area. standards.
The Site Plan as submitted did not show the adjacent neighbar's praperiy to the north. This property
would be the most affected. Based on the CrIS data. shown on the Area Mag enctosed with the
Plannexs Report, the home to the natth is setback 10 feet and has aa extended drive way right up to
the adjacent praperty line and to the edge of the garage. There is some fencing atong the property ._
Une as well. The drive way in this sifuation notmally requires adherence to City setbacks but may �
havs been ir�talted before drive way setbacks were included in #he Ordinance. FIowever, there shoutd
be some concem with drainage and saow stora.ge on the area between the two homes.
All signatures of cansent have been reviewed and the Planning Com�missian may consider waiving the
public hearing. •

December 29, 1994 Case 94-39 Page 2
Critical Area Overlay District Modified Site Plan Review
In the case of a minor development or change involving a single family dwelling when the site plan
conforms to the standards of the Critical Area Overlay District, the City Council may review that
request and exempt the applicant from applying for atty inappropriate requirements of this Ordinance.
The Ordinance requires significant amount of inforn�ation pertaining to the total site and constcuction,
much ofwluch may not have a significant bearing on the approval. The site itself actually sits at the
base of the large hill that falls from Rnollwood Lane down to Wachfler. The home and its addition
is not viewed from any sensitive area in the Critical Area. Submitted plans did not show any
vegetation to be removed nor atty significant grading or change ia the flow of water. Because of the
extensive steep slopes that do drain down from the east, it would be wise to make.sure that the
drainage between the two homes, especially with the proposed addition, is handled appropriately.
This drainage iavestigatioa would be an appropriate piece of information to be presented to the City
Council for their review. '
Side'Yard Variance
The required side yard setback is ten feet and the request is for a setback of less than six feet and as
dimensioned oa the submitted plans, the side yard setback is proposed to be five aad one half feet.
The plans locate the home and other• site features but does not indicate how the architectural lay out
of the home interior would require the addition in this particular location and configuration.
The City's Pool Ordinance requires the building to be setback ten feet from the edge of the pool.
Based on the submitted site plan, approximately sevea and one half feet of home addition is available
�� on the rear of the home with the required pool setback. The plan also indicates that the home is
setback approximately 18 feet from the side yard. An additiott of eight feet in depth could be added
without requiring a variance. The home dining room addition may have an alternative design by
adding both to the north and east sides of the house approximately seven to eight feet in depth
creating an expanded corner to the home. Because no architectural plans were submitted, the
applicant may want to explain to the Planning Commissioners the need for the addition as they have
presented it.
The Mansfield home is setback 65 feet from Wachtler and the adjacent neighbor to the north is
setback between 95 to 105 feet from Wachtler. The proposed addidon will actually set slightly in
front of the home and garage when viewed from Wachtler. Because the adjacent home to the north
has built an extended driveway up to the properiy line, the addition would leave only about five feet
of open space between the two home developments.
The proposed addition does not have any windows facing the neighbor to the north and there should
not be an issue of restricted privacy. The proposed addition is one story with gabled roofs with an
� eave that is projected to extend between one and two feet into the proposed reduced side yard
setback. The building material is proposed to be siding material to match the existing home. No
landscaping was proposed nor any augmentation to the drainage pattern between the two adjacent
homes. The reducing of the side yard setback five feet for the entire length of the addition should be

in Mendota Heights.
Our dining area �s at one end�of our kitchen, making ent'ertaining
in general difficu�t and a�d�nner for more..ihan six i�mpossi�ble.
As my husband ha"s a 7arge family and m��ne is �mid-sized,x.we are
unable to have dinner fot^ family members at all.
With a 3,800�sq..ft. home�it is not realistic not��o�have a formal
dininq room. By adding this room,�we wi11 be ab1e to entertain,
have som� working�space i�n our kiichen and make our home more useable
and saleab�le if we should -ever dec�tde to do so. �
There is no way to add to the back of our home withowt tearing un
the pool decki'ng and the landscaping�that exists. � .
The obvi ous : p�l a�ce.. far thi s room is off the kitchen to the �north of

From: Kevin Batchelder, Administrative Assis
Subject: Ordinance Revisions for Detached Garages in the R 1 Zoning District
DISCUSSION
��
At the City Council's request, the Planning Commission has been discussing possible
Zoning Ordinance revisions to address some confusion about detached garages and accessory
structures. The City Council had desired that revisions be adopted to establish a mi.nimum
and maximum size for detached garages. Council also felt that 1,000 sq. ft. (as prescribed in
Ordinance Section 4.5(3)) was too large for a detached gazage and suggested a standard of a
three stall garage. Council indicated a preference for the Conditional Use Permit process for
any approvals regarding detached garages. (See attached November 1993 mi.nutes.)
The Planning Commission, at their November and December meetings, discussed
revisions to the Zoning Ordinance and are proposing changes that address the concerns of the
City Council. A public hearing was held to consider these Zoning Ordinance Amendments.
A four-fifths vote of City Council is necessary to adopt changes to the Zoning Ordi.nance.
RECOn�IlVIENDATION
The Planning Commission voted unani.mously to recommend that City Council adopt
the following amendments to the Zoning Ordinance (please note that laneuaee to be added is
double underlined and a strikeout format is used for
ek�ed}..
Section 7.2(10) should be added to those uses listed as Conditional Uses in Section 7.2 of
the R 1 Distriet to read as follows:
7.2(101 Detached. nrivate �araees with a minimum flaor area of four hundred fortv
4401 square feet and a maximum floor area of seven hundred fiftv (7501
sauare feet. Onlv one vrivate gara�e is allowed for each nrincinal residential
structure.
Section 7.3(1) is hereby amended in its entirety so that as amended it shall read as
follows:
7.3(1) One private garage, either attached, det�eke� or part of the principal
stiucture, and parking space.
Section 4.5(3) is hereby amended in its entirety so that as amended it shall read as
follows:

Councilmember Smith stated that she would like
clarification on the distribution of assets.
She stated that the existing agreement
provides that a withdrawing member forfeits
its claim to any assets of the commis`sion, and
she would support the agreement based on the
interpretation that since there is no language
expressly granting rights, only curr�nt
members have rights to the commission assets
and those that withdraw have no right to any.
portion of the assets.
A�torney Sokol stated that there is no
provision in the draft agreement for
withdrawing members to get anything. He
e�lained that the reason for the deletion was
not to create the inference that a withdrawing
member would get anything, but to protect
agai.nst withdrawal before March 7, 2000.
City Attorney Hart stated that under contract

Administrative Assistant Batchelder reviewed
the proposed amendments and responded to
Council questions.
Councilmember Krebsbach stated that when she
was first appointed to the Planning
Commission, she assumed that the city did not
allow detached garages with new home
construction. She suggested that ordinance
language be changed to require that all
garages constructed with new homes must be
attached. •
Councilmember ICoch expressed concern that the
ordinance is getting too restrictiv.e, and
asked if the amendment is really needed.
Councilmember Krebsbach stated that she feels
that detached garages will become more of an
issue as the city experiences more requests
for lot splits.
There was discussion over whether garages of
145 square.feet should be allowed.
Councilmember Smith did not feel that the
amendment would be too restrictive and asked
whether buildings should be allowed between
145 and 1000 square feet by conditional use
permit. '
Administrator Lawell stated that there are two
questions: does Council want to require
conditional use permits, and does it want to
allow structures up to 1000 square feet by
conditional use.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that he feels
conditiona3. use permits are needed where an
existing garage is being closed off and a new
garage is requested.
Councilmember Smith stated that Council must
provide some guidelines for staff in its
review of requests for conditional use
permits.
Administrator Lawell stated that a request
could be as simple as someone who has a one
car garage and wants to expand it into a two
car garage by adding 145 square feet or
, someone who wants to build a 1000 square foot
� garage - everyone would be treated the same

January 12, 1995
To: Mayor, City Council and City A
From: Kevin Batchelder, Admi.nistrative Assis
Subject: Presentation of Final Plans and Specifications for North Kensington Park
DISCUSSION
f
Ms. Joni Giese, landscape consultant, appeared before the Parks and Recreation
Commission at their 7anuary 10, 1995 meeting to present the Final Plans and Spe�ifications
for the development of North Kensington Park. The plans that were presented are based on
the Concept Plan, as approved by the City Council and the Parks and Recreation
Commission in August.
Joni will be present Tuesday evening to provide a formal presentation of the plans
including an illustrative plan, a plantings plan, a grading plan and a cost estimate plan. The
illustrative plan will iaclude the details for the benches, crosswalks, overlaok, shelter aad
culvert outlets. The plan includes the use of the sandstone rocks available from Acacia
Cemetery.
The original budget for North Kensington Park was established as $25,000 for a
"backyard concept" with the potential of an additional $15,000 for a shelter. The cost
estimate, as presented at the Pazks and Recreation Commission, is $34,035 for the park
consiruction, landscaping and design. An additional amount of $7,400 is estimated for the
overlook construction, wluch was included as an add alternate. The picnic shelter is aaother
add-alternate which is estimated to be an additional $10,000. (Please see attached North
Kensington Park - Cvst Esti.mate.)
As discussed at the Parks and Recreation Commission meeting, this estimate can be
pared down somewhat with the elimination of the picnic tables, trash receptacles and grill.
These items are typically provided in each park through the general fund.
Approximately $55,120 is remai.ning in the referendum fund to pay for any
improvements at North Kensington Park. Approximately $429,964 remai.ns in the Special
Park Fund. (Please see attached 7anuary 12, 1994 memorandum from Guy Kullander titled
Status of Remaining Referendum Funds.)
As the City Council will recall, the North Kensington Park Plans are based upon a
year's worth of consideration by the Parks and Recreation Commission, several
neighborhood meetings and the input of an ad-hoc committee consisting of Council member
Jill Smith, Commissioner Stan Linnell, Guy Kullander, Joni Giese and mysel£ The
Concept Plans that were approved in August were very well received by the residents who
have attended the neighborhood meetings and the City Council meetings, with the exception
of the need for and the location of the shelter.
Attached you will find a copy of a 5eptember 10, 1994 petition from residents in the
neighborhaod opposing the shelter. This petition was received at a Council meeting
following approval of the Concept Plans. The Council directed Joni to include the shelter as
an add-alternate option in the Final Plans so that it could be further considered as part of the
approval process foi the Final Plans. The Commission's original recommendation had been
to wait a year after construction of the park to consider the shelter. .
Mr. Dan Rostratter, of 2483 Stackbridge, appea.red at the Parks and Recreation
Commission meeting and indicated that he is vehemently opposed to the inclusion�of a picnic
shelter in North Kensington Park. The Commission did not include the picnic shelter in their
recommendation of approval for North Kensington Park.
RECONIlVIENDATION
The Parks and Recreation Commission voted unanimously (5-0) to recommend that
City Council approve the Final Plans and Specifications for North Kensington Park as
presented, with the addition of the Overlook option, to be funded out of referendum monies
in an amount not to exceed $41,435. The Commission recommended that no picnic shelter
be included in North Kensington Park because of the lack of a need and the presence of
neighborhaad opposition.
ACTION REQUIRED
The Council should acknowledge a presentation from 7oni Giese, landscape
consultant, and discuss the final plans. If the City Council desires to implement the
recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Commission, they should pass a motion to
approve the Final Plans and Specifications for North Kensington Park, including the
proposed Overlook for an amount not to exceed $41,435 from the Parks Referendum fund
and to authorize staff to seek competitive bids for this project.

Dear Friends:
We, the undersigned residents of the Brent�vood and Kensineton neighborhoods are otiicialip petitioning
the City of Mendota Heigltts not to consuuct a picnic shelter/structure in the Nonli I:e►�sington park We
are stronglv opposcd to the picnic structure for the following t��•o reasons: •_
1) Lack of u picnic structurc in thc nestrb�� Iiagstrom-F:ing and Friendh• Iiills parks — both
of these parks have the infrastructure (parking lots) and the amenities (tennis courts. basketball courts,
pla��grounds, ect.) to support/require flie picnic shelteis. The North Kensington park «zll �of have either
the infrastructure or the amenides to supporUrequire the picnic shelt.ers. In these da}�s of limited budgets
and high taxes. «�e belie��e a cos�t/ben�fit anal}5is tivould support consuuction of a picnic shelter in either
the Hagstrom-King or Friendh• Hills parks: before oonstruction of a picnic shelter in the North
I:ensington park Additionall}•, picnic shel�ers are a�ailable in South Kensington park onl}� a short
distance from North Kensington park.
2) North Kcnsingtan Back��ard ThcmdConccpt — in prior mcetings ���ith the Cin• of Mendota
Heights Parks Commission and Cit�� Council. we a�ere informed the North Kensington park would be a
passive p�drk "an �.��tension of the back`rard for 1he adjoining nesideats". Collecti��el}� the r�sidents i�ave
supported this conap� h4n�ever: the residents ha��e sternh� voiad opposition to the oonstruction of a
picnic snucture in the back}ard concxpt for the North Kensington park Additionall}: the picnic structure
raises securin•/safety issues for the residents as a gathering plaa in the e��ening (additional lighting
e.��penses nbuld ha��e to be incurred and tha swciure nould ha��e to be visible from Mendota Heights
Road). One incident has alreadc• taken place in the park n�here an adult male aaempted to lure children to
the avsting phone building in the park bxause this happened during the dar, residents observed the
incident and the.police ���ere called avoiding a potentia! disaster.
Again �ve svongly oppose die construcdon of a picnic suucture in the North Kensington park and
appreciate your listening to the unmediate residents concerns in this matter.
Sincerely;

CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS
January 10, 1994
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Tom Lawell, City Administ
SIIBJECT: Set Council Future Workshop/Meeting Dates
DISCIISSION
In recent weeks we have discussed the need to schedule one
or more City Council workshops to address a number of on-going
issues. These issues include the following: '�
1. Status of Current Labor Negotiations (closed session)
2. Review of Public Works Department Work Schedule
3. Economic Development Organizations Within Dakota County
4. St. Paul Water Service Contract
5. Highway 55/Highway 110 Land Use Study
6. Park Commissioner Interviews
Previously Council has indicated it wishes to interview Park
Commission applicants immediately prior to its February 7, 1995
regular meeting. As such, Council should formally establish its
meeting start time as 6:30 p.m. on February 7, 1995 in order to
allow time to interview four interested applicants.
. The Highway 55/Highway 110 Land Use Study is currently in
its second phase and another joint workshop with the Planning
Commission should be scheduled for sometime in February, 1995.
Similarly, with the recent approval of a new St. Paul Water
Agreement between St. Paul and West St. Paul, we will need to
begin discussions on this topic sometime in February.
The other items on the above list, items 1-3, are proposed
to be discussed at a Council workshop on Tuesday, January 31,
1995 which happens to be a fifth Tuesday of the month. Please
consult your calendars to determine if this date is workable for
you. I estimate we will need about two hours for cover the
identified topics and would suggest a meeting time of 7:30 p.m.
to 9:30 p.m.
ACTION REQIIIRED
Council should formally set the starting time of its.
February 7, 1995 meeting to be 6:30 p.m. in order to conduct Park
Commissioner interviews. In addition, Council should consider
setting a workshop for January 31, 1995 at 7:30 p.m. to discuss
various issues including labor negotiations. Part of this
meeting would then be closed to the public as allowed by Statute.
