with grading there should be an understanding that erosion control is
the city's main concern.
Councilmember Smith stated that she is concerned that there are
sufficient obstacles to prevent a sheet of water coming down to the
properties in Cherry Hills. She asked Mr. Heaver to create a grading
plan to prevent that and further asked if he would be willing to work
with the city if problems occur in the future as well.
Mr. Heaver responded that he will work with engineers and the city
staff before grading occurs and will continue to work with the city.

even sprinkling system, which has been used in past years, will be
implemented.
BALLFIELD BACKSTOPS Council acknowledged a memo from Pazks Project Manager Guy

Mendakota Pazk.
Mr. Kullander gave a brief presenta.tion about the proposed ten foot

Public Works Director Danielson responded that he had received a
letter from the fire mazshal today regarding access for public safety
vehicles, and that parking could be allowed on one side of the street.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that the streets should be made wide
enough so that parking can be allowed on one side and although it
may be necessary to keep Cullen at 25 feet wide, it could be wider
along the freeway.
Engineer Mogan responded that the lots are deep along the freeway,
so the properiy owners can a�hieve off-street parking in their
driveways. He further sta.ted that it may be possible to create a
parking bay. .
,Mayor Mertensotto asked for questions and comments from the
audience.
Mrs. Mary Blanchazd, 1049 William Court, submitted a petition in
opposition to the full restoration project. She stated that those on the
petition hope that Council considers the petition as it did the petition
which initiated the project in 1993.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that Friendly Hills is an example of the
project proposed - it is a similaz project with urban street sections, as
was constructed in tlie London/Downing azea, and people aze very
happy with the projects. He informed the audience that because
fewer than 35% of the properly owners aze not petitioning for the
project, four of the five Council members must vote to order the
project in. He explained that if Council supports this evening's
petition Council would be looking at a simple overlay project which
would be assessed at an estimated $1,500 per lot.
Ms. Blanchard responded that she understands that the Friendly
Hills residents initially fought the full reconstruction and that
Council reduced the cost to the residents.
Mayor Mertensotto stated that the residents must bear in mind that
the Friendly Hills lots aze much smaller, so there aze more�
assessments - this cannot be equated with the larger lots in the
Curley neighborhood, which also has wider streets. He explained
that the project would improve 1.6 miles of street and 107 homes
would be assessed. He stated that Council would like the residents
to think about the full project, sta.ting that there aze many streets in
the city which are 24 to 25 years old and need reconstruction.

underlying problems with the aggregate base that now exists. He
explained that if the base has become bad over time, an overlay
might not last ten years.
Mr. Kaupaun responded that the overlay would cost $1,500 per lot.
He asked if the neighborhood would get more for reconstruction.
Engi.neer Mogan responded that the stceets would have a 20 year life
and the project would be assessed over 19 years versus a 10 year
assessment for simple overlay.
Councilmember Krebsbach asked why the 33 foot street width is
proposed. .
Public Works Director Danielson responded that 33 feet is the
standard for city streets - 30 feet of blacktop with curb and gutter
alongside of it. He stated that wherever curb and gutter is not
installed, streets are constructed 30 feet wide.
Mr. Bemard Carlson, 2091 Theresa, asked the payment term for the
$1,500 overlay assessment and the $3,500 total construction
assessment. He also asked if the assessment rate is based on
household or on lot foota.ge.
Engineer Mogan responded that the overlay, assessed over 10 years
at 7% interest, would.cost about $17.50 per month. The
reconstruction, assessed over 19 years at 7% interest, would cost
about $26.40 per month. He explained that the assessable costs are
proposed to be divided by the number of lots to be assessed rather
than on a frontage basis.
Ms. Barb Thompson, 2121 Theresa, stated that she came to support
the full project. She asked if there is an option for constructing new
. streets without curb and gutter. -
Engineer Mogan responded that staff looked at that option for
Friendly Hills and the cost to reclaim the existi.ng surface and relay
it was about $2,500 per lot. He expected that the cost would be
similaz for the Curley streets.
Mr. Sazn Shepard, 2141 Theresa, asked if $3,500 is a firm figure.
He asked whether the city will contribute more to the project.
Mayor Mertensotto responded that Council made an agreement with
Friendly Hills that once an amount was set Council would stick with

Mr. F.B. Daniel, 2056 Timmy, stated that he doubts there is any
question whether the streets need to be improved. He further stated
that he does not feel the neighborhood would be better off with an
overlay that would last 10 years and then having to do it over. He
felt that with the full project, with its permanence and the
improvement to the neighborhood, there is no question that
prospective buyers would be more interested. He stated that in 10
yeazs, when the overlay would have to be repeated, it will cost more
and would get the residents back to the $3,500 for the permanent
project. He further stated that he seriously questions the practicality
for any of the Curley property owners to want to go for an overlay
and then another overlay in the same period of time that the curb and
gutter will last and,give a better and more attractive project.
Mr. Wes Anderson, 2980 Timmy, stated that he thinks the Curley
Addition is the sloppiest neighborhood in Mendota Heights and curb
and gutter is what is needed. He supported Mr. Daniels' comments.
Mr. Brad Alkan, 2036 Timmy, stated he has had a lot of daznage
from snow plows and curb and gutter is not a bad idea. He stated
that if the project is consfxucted with curb and gutter two feet would
be added on each side and everything would need to be relocated.
Engineer Mogan responded that relocation of mail boxes, etc., is
included in the project cost. .
Ms. Arvilla Beckman, 2125 Timmy, stated that her husband could
not attend the meeting but wanted to be present because they
strongly want the project. She submitted a letter to Council, and
stated that snow does not always get plowed right away and freezes
and creates ruts. She was hopeful that the project goes through there
will be less of an icing problem and they will not have to resod their
lot corner every spring to repair snow plow damage. -
Mayor Mertensotto sta.ted that there are 37 to 38 property owners
who singed the petition but it is apparent by the discussion that
many residents did not fully understand what was proposed. He
stated that Council would not order in the complete project with that
many petition signatures but that he is unsure, because of the
appazent misunderstandings, whether those on the petition would be
opposed to the project. He stated that the question is whether to
proceed based on the petition and deny the project or order in an
overlay or whether Council should continue the matter �o allow the
neighborhood to discuss it.

reconstntction, and stated that Council does not want to divide the
neighborhood and can continue the discussion. He stated that there
are two reasons it is important to have neighborhood support - if
there are fewer than 35% of the properiy owners petitioning the
project, it must be approved by a 4/5 vote of Council. He further
stated that the other important aspect is that Council does not just go

Mr. Beariy reviewed the Plan of Action for Council and audience
and responded to Council questions.
Councilmember Smith asked that the Commission request
demographic information on the difference between Stage III aircraft
and hush-kitted aircraft.
There was discussion over the FAA's role. Mayor Mertensotto
stated that the FAA's chazges to protect safety and to increase
capacity are in conflict from the beginning. He stated that the city's
position should be that the FAA should only be charged with flight
safety.

$10,000. The total anticipated cost for the project to date is
$414,373.80.
Mayor Mertensotto asked how the city stands on participating costs.
Mr. Streeter responded that $260,000 of the items fall under the
participating cost list and tlie city will participate up to $200,000, so
it is well within the list. The landlord will finance about $214,000
of the cost. He stated that this is a variable and will vary some
because it is a unit price bid and final costs will not be known until
the project is done. �
Mr. Roetzel reviewed the storm sewer plans, informing Council that
a leg of storm sewer has been added and a catch basin has been
added in the turning lane.
Mayor Mertensotto asked if the entire median which currently exists
between the traveled portion of McDonald's and the shopping center
will be removed. He pointed out that there are four or five green
ash trees in that area.
Mr. Roetzel responded that the plan is to not impact any of those
trees.
Councilmember Krebsbach asked what portion of the $200,000 is
for storm sewer. . .
Mr. Streeter responded that he has not computed the percentages but
he will do so. Responding to Mayor Mertensotto's question, he
stated that so as not to impact the row of trees that separates
McDonald's from the shopping center, the pipe has been moved into
the roadway curb line and a depressed catch basin has been added.
Responding to a question from Councilmember Smith regarding
Dodd Road drainage and catch basins, Mr. Streeter stated that the
plan has been changed to not a11ow the mass of water to come across
the entrance to the shopping center. He described the system, stating
that the west portion of the pazking lot will be regraded, and the
design of the entire storm sewer system is that there will not be any
flat surface that has less than a 1% grade so that the water is carried
into the storm sewer system.
Mayor Mertensotto asked why all the water from the west is being
brought into a five faot drop. -

Mayor Mertensotto asked who will move the hydrant at Dodd Road,
and at whose expense.
Mr. Streeter responded that St. Paul Water must move the hydrant
and Paster will pay for it. He stated that moving the hydrant is not
on the project cost list. Also responding to a question from Mayor
Mertensotto, he stated that the McDonald's drainage will be much
improved.
Councilmember Smith asked about the truck route. Mr. Roetzel
responded that the route will be constructed of heavy bituminous for
truck traffic and will be striped as a huck route. He stated that if the
trucks do not follow the route signage or some type of a barrier will
need to be installed.
Councilmember Smith asked if the lighter bituminous in the pazking
lot will be strong enough to handle any truck traffic that may occur.
Mr. Roetzel stated that it will not be strong enough to handle a
regular flow of truck traffic, which is why the shopping center
management will have to enforce the huck lane.
Mr. Paster stated that busses have been a problem at the back side of
the center, and that Mr. Streeter has asked the bus company for
assistance in paving that area to a heavier bituminous but the MCTO
refused. He explained that all of the bituminous behind the building
will be heavy duty.
Mr. Roetzel stated that a concrete pad and footings will be
constructed next to the existing back entrance to the building and
landscaping will be added to make it a primary entrance. He stated
that this is the area where the busses will make their pick-ups, and
the shopping center is promoting it as the pick-up point because the
area will have heavy duty pavement.
Mayor Mertensotto expressed concern about ice buildup at the east
side of the building because there is a low azea and there is no
drainage improvement proposed on that side.
Mr. Roetzel responded that there will be an overlay in that area and
the pavement will be built up, but drainage will be the same as exists
now. Mr. Paster stated that the shopping center has not encouraged
traffic into that area because it is a loading and unloading azea for
trucks.

Mayor Mertensotto stated that something should be

would be either evergreens or flowers, and if evergreens are not
added, he could plant annuals around the ornamentals.
Councilmember Smith asked if the plantings will be replaced if they
do not survive. Mr. Anderson responded that replacement is not in
the contract but the plants will be irrigated.
Mr. Streeter stated that the urigation system is in place for four
islands, and when he inspected the existing plantings last week they
were beautiful. He further stated that irrigation will be added for the
new shrub planting azeas near the main entrance.
Administrator Lawell stated that there are two options for planters.
He asked which Council preferred, the lazger planter for year
around plantings or the smaller one.
Councilmember Smith stated that the first priority must be year
around attractiveness but she would like flowers as well as greenery.
Mr. Anderson responded that he can put green plantings with
flowers around them in the larger planters, or in winter pine boughs
can be added to the smaller pots.
Councilmember Krebsbach stated that she thinks flowers are nice,
and asked if there could be flowers with topped evergreens. She
agreed with Councilmember Smith that there should be something
green in the planters so that there is a yeaz azound effect.
Mr. Streeter reminded Council that each time the plantings are
changed in the spring and fall, it is the cost of the property owner.
Mr. Paster stated that the smaller pot is 36" wide and the lazge pot is
72" wide and 36 inches tall, and the lazger pot is generally
associated with an institutional setting. He stated that at least 9
cubic feet of soil is needed to plant a tree, and in order to accomplish
that and have the tree live, the 72 inch pots would be necessary.
It was the consensus of Council that the smaller pots are preferred.
Responding to questions from Mayor Mertensotto regarding the
proposed entrance sign, Mr. Streeter stated that clearance from the
bottom of the sign is called out by code and the sign meets the city's
code except for its height, which received approval by Council in the
past. He stated that the clearance from the ground line to the bottom
of the sign is critical, and the island will be constructed around the
pylon. He informed Council that the sign costs are not part of the

Mayor Mertensotto stated that it is difficult to tell abo�t the
landscaping until it is in. He further stated that while �ouncil can
approve the plan, it may ask for changes at a later time.
Mr. Roetzel reviewed the truck turning radii, and Mr.
reviewed the truck route signage.
Councilmember Smith stated that she is concerned ab�ut the safety
of drivers if they happen to run into one of the concre i posts that
will hold the truck signage.

system is 525,000 to 535,000.
_�._ - Foggia explained that the Global Positioning System will increase safety and
efficiency in air traffic control. He stated that the system represents the
most significant advancement since the introduction of the jet engine.
Foggia reviewed accuracy issues and stated that it will be more accurate
than the "Hot Zone" in that the system will let pilots know that they are
deviating from their designated positions.
Foggia stated that the system may have noise abatement capability in that
the air space may be restructured. Chair Beaty stated that this is why the
Commission is interested in this new technology. Mr. Pierce stated that
with this system, the equipment can calculate a steeper angle in landing.
Chair Beaty stated that Mendota Heights is affected by mostly departures.
Mr. Pierce stated that this system may have the same accuracy in that it
can have segmented departures. Chair Beaty stated that Mendota Heights
would like to see the air corridor shrunk. He stated that if the GPS has the
capability to be more accurate, then the corridor should be shrunk.
Mr. Foggia explained that currently a 15 degree separation is maintained
and that this is the function of the existing technology. He explained that
the air controllers need to see the aircraft and that the current radar system
is a secondary tool in directing aircraft. He stated that the GPS will change
the system. He stated that he cannot guarantee that it will help decrease
air noise.
Chair Beaty stated that he does not want to see the MAC focusing on
relieving air noise created by landings. Mr. Foggia explained that landings
require more accuracy than departures.
Foggia reviewed several Honeywell slides which showed examples of the
G4-GPS system and a GPS Receiver. Mr. Foggia explained that a GPS
Receiver is 8" square by 2" high. He explained that an antennae is attached
to the exterior of the aircraft fuselage. He explained that there will be three
GPS receivers located on the ground. Commissioner Surrisi inquired if there
will be storage capability for flight data. Mr. Pierce stated no and that the
receivers just calculate corrections and transmits the corrections to the
aircraft. Commissioner Surrisi pointed out that with this new technology, it
may be easier to reconstruct accidents.
F��
It was discussed how this system can be used at other, smaller air'
such as the St. Paul Airport and the Midway Airport in Chicago. S
signal at MSP will be able to cover most of the Metro area. It was
that with this new system, the smaller airports will be able to use t�
of certain runways which are now largely unusable due to glide slo�
obstructions. _
Mr. Foggia stated that within the next ten years most aircraft will I
new technology. He stated that some airlines will begin implemen
new technology in September. He stated that this new standard v
implemented when all planes are equipped with the system. He e�
that if old aircraft are not equipped with the new system, then the
system will be used. '
Mr. Foggia presented a video which gave an example of an air pla
GPS, landing at Washington DC International Airport. It was poin�
how the aircraft receives the signa! on apprqach and flies an acc�
defined path to land.
Commissioner Surrisi inquired when the City of Mendota Heights c

He stated that Mr. Hamiel and himself are very much aware of the City of
Mendota Heights concerns regarding air noise.
Administrator Lawell stated that with this system, there could be significant
changes in air space management. Mr. Foggia stated that. they will have to
look at approach control and that they cannot alter without the appropriate
EIS review and NEPA hearings.
Commissioner Surrisi stated that the City should consider conducting
workshops to help the MAC and FAA to understand the City's issues. She
stated that she believes the City may be able to come up with
recommendations. Mr. Foggia stated�that the City should utilize the MASAC
process. He stated that the MAC views the MASAC process as input from
cities. He stated that the larger coalition should use the MASAC process.
He informed the Commission that he is aware of the letter sent by the
Coalition to Mr. Dasburg.
Mr. Foggia stated that the letter had been sent to Mr. Hamiel and then to
the MASAC. He stated that the Close In vs Distant Departure procedure is
an airport issue and that the airlines need to develop departure profiles
based on individual planes. He stated that airports need to then institute the
procedures by runway end. Administrator Lawell stated that the profile
chosen should maximize the noise benefit from Stage 3 aircraft. Mr. Foggia
stated that a FAA Advisory Circular recently published specifies minimum
requirements along with restrictions on where aircraft can be within a five
mile radius. He stated that the FAA has minimum performance
requirements. Commissioner Surrisi stated that if the GPS changes the
system, then there will be better performance from the aircraft.
Mr. Foggia informed the Commission that MSP is on the edge of significant
changes.

Mr. and Mrs. Richard Cruz, of 1338 Cherry Hill Road, were present to
discus their request for a setback variance for driveway and storage of a
recreational vehicle.
Mr. Cruz explained that he moved into his new house in 1993. He stated
that he had wanted to place his motor home in his backyard and to
construct a fence. At this time, he was instructed that he had two front
yards and that he was not able to install a fence without a variance.
Vice Chair Duggan stated that the problem is that the concrete slab extends
into Mr. Cruz's neighbor's yard. Mr. Cruz explained that when his
contractor constructed the house, the slab was installed, inadvertently onto
his neighbor's yard. -
Planner Uban explained that the home is set slightly askew on the lot with
one corner or the other within ten feet (10') of the property line. He
explained that this makes circulation to the rear yard difficult for large
vehicles. Uban explained that the storage of recreational vehicles is

non-conforming condition. It was noted that the slab was installec� at the
time the house was constructed and that it was in violation at tha time.
Commissioner Tilsen suggested that the Cruz's may want to consider
purchasing ten feet of their neighbor's property which would provi e an
area to allow storage of the vehicle and screening. He explained t at this
may appease their neighbors. Tilsen suggested that possibly the neighbors
may have extra square footage and that this may be a possible sol�tion.

VETLANDS PERMIT
Mr. Bob McKinney, representing Mendakota Country Club, located at 2075
Mendakota Drive, was present to discuss a request for a Wetlands Permit
which would allow the construction of a new No. 2 golf hole.
Mr. McKinney explained that the Club has hired golf course architects who,
in conjunction with the members of the Club, have developed a master plan
for the golf course. Mr. McKinney informed the Commission that the
Mendakota Country Club golf course was not originally designed by a golf
course architect. '
Mr. McKinney explained that the Country Club has been pursuing various
projects over the last year or so to upgrade the course. He explained that
they are proposing to build a 19th hole so that other sections of the course
can be worked on and they will still have 18 holes in play. McKinney
explained that the new hole is proposed around a wetland area directly west
of the City's fire station on Dodd Road.
McKinney explained that the proposed No. �2 hole includes a reconfiguration
of the existing wetland and pond as well as removing all existing vegetation,
regrading the site and establishing a golf course like character in the general
area.
Planner Uban stated that Mendakota has submitted very detailed plans but
that the plans did not note specifically the vegetation that exists around the
wetland and that species of trees and other landscaping that are proposed
in the reconfigured pond and wetland have not been specified on the plan.
Uban stated the City should encourage the use of appropriate native
material that will enhance the wetland aspects of the design. -
Mr. McKinney explained that their intentions are to keep this area natural.
He informed the Commission that the buffer zone to the west will include
native grasses and that trees such as river birch, northwood maple and
lindens will be installed.

GENERAL PUMP/U.S. INC -
CUP AND VARIANCE
Mr. Joe Zwak, attorney representing General Pump, focated at 1174
Northland Drive, was :present to discuss their request for a Conditional Use
Permit and Variance which would allow the construction of a freestanding
television satellite dish within sixteen feet (16') of the side yard setback.
Mr. Zwak explained that there is no usable location to locate the satellite
dish that does not require a variance. He explained that the only other
possibility would be to the east of the proposed site. He explained that this
site has a significant slope and that they discounted using this site due to
soil instability. He explained that another area that was examined for the
dish would be on top of the building. He explained that the roof is not
designed to carry the weight of the satellite dish. He further explained that
this would not give an aesthetically pleasing appearance. Zwak explained
that the proposed location is set back further than the parked vehicles in the
parking lot and along the same property line, but not so close to the
sidewalk that it cannot be successfully screened.
Vice Chair Duggan inquired if the tree will be re.moved. Mr. Zwak
responded that it would be relocated. Duggan inquired if a security fence
will be constructed around the dish. Mr. Zwak explained that a fence is
proposed. He explained that it may be a six foot (6') high, chain link fence.
He stated that a board surface fence will interfere with the satellite dish.
Commissioner Friel inquired about the weight of the satellite dish. Mr. Zwak
responded he does not know. He explained that "I" beams need ta be
installed in a roof system in order to support a satellite dish.
In response to a question from Commissioner Betlej, Mr. Zwak explained
that the satellite dish follows a satellite across �the sky southeast to
southwest.
The Commission discussed other possible locations to place the satellite
dish. Mr. Zwak explained that other areas on the site may cause
interference with the dish and that they have considered an area near the
slope and that they were concerned about soil stability. Commissioner
Betiej inquired if other areas of technology can �be used. Mr. Zw�
responded that this is the most advanced state-of-the-art technol

VARIANCE
Mr. Bill Burg, of Edina Realty, v►cas present representing Mr. Howard Quinlan
and Ms. Shannon O'Toole, owners of Lot 16, Block 1, Rolling Woods
Addition, to discuss their request for a driveway setback variance.
Mr. Burg explained that there is approximately eleven feet (11') of frontage
on Wesley Court. He explained that the buyers of the property wish to build
a home that faces Wesley Court with a driveway running through the eleven
feet (11') of right-of-way frontage. He explained the buyers wish to orient
the house on the cul-de-sac which will be consistent with other homes
around the cul-de-sac. He explained that the lot is wooded and is ideally
suited for a walkout home design on the cul-de-sac.
Administrative Assistant Batchelder explained that the Commission was
given a copy of the preliminary plat which was approved by City Council in
December of 1986. He explained that this plan provides information
regarding location of housing pads and grading. Public Works Director
Danielson stated that the preliminary plat approved by City Council shows
eleven feet (11') of frontage on Wesley Court. He stated that the original
plat envisioned a rambler to be constructed on Wesley Lane. Danielson
stated that this an unusual lot and situation and that the City does not
encounter this type of situation often.
In response to a question from Commissioner Tilsen, Public Works Director
Danielson stated that sewer and water are available through Wesley Court
and Wesley Lane. He stated that utilities were envisioned to come through
Wesley Lane.
Commissioner Tilsen stated that Mr. Burg is asking for a zero lot line
setback and that he needs to be convinced of a hardship. Mr. Burg stated
that the consumer prefers to have the home located on Wesley Court and
that they cannot place the house on Wesley Court with driveway access off
of the Court without a variance. He stated that to facilitate the sale of the
property, a variance is needed, so that the sellers can sell their property.
Commissioner Tilsen suggested that the owners of the lot consider
purchasing ten feet from their adjoining property owners.
Commissioner Lorberbaum stated that she understands why the buyers of

SUBJECT: Public Works Department Labor Agreement
DISCl1SS10N
At our July 18th meeting, the City Council was scheduled to consii
approval of a new labor agreement with our Public Works Maintenance W�
At that meeting, Council delayed action on the agreement to allow us a cf
discuss the proposed settlement with our labor attorney Kevin Rupp.
On July 27th, Mr. Rupp, Mayor Mertensotto and I spoke via confer
to further discuss this issue. Mr. Rupp sees no problem in ratifying the p
two year agreement. He was specifically asked if settlement of this conti
would negatively affect our ongoing litigation with the bargaining unit ovE
City's authority to modify their work schedules-- he responded that it will
stated it is common in the field of labor relations to separate issues, agreE
some and agreeing to disagree on others, where the matters are clearly u
Because the proposed two year settlement in no way affects the EmployE
Authority section of the contract, he sees no reason to delay the ratificati
new contract.
For a full description of the proposed settlement terms, please see
attached Council memo �dated July 13th.
ACTION REQUIRED
Should Council concur with the recommendation, a motion to appr�
described 1995-1996 labor contract settlement between the City and Te�

CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS
MEMO
July 13, 1995
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Tom Lawell, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Public Works Department Labor Agreement
INTRODUCTION
Our current two year labor agreement with our eight public works
maintenance workers expired on December 31, 1994. Council will recall that in
October, 1994 we met in a workshop session to discuss acceptable contract
settlement parameters. Negotiations for a new contract began in late 1994, were
temporarily put on hold in early 1995, and were recently revived with the arrival of
a new Teamsters business agent, Joe Morris, who took over the duties from the
recently departed Larry Bastian.
Jim Danielson and I met with Mr. Morris and Parks Leadperson Terry Blum
on Monday of this week, and I am pleased to report that the negotiations have
been successfully concluded. On Tuesday we were informed by Business Agent
Morris that the bargaining unit membership had voted to approve the proposed
contract. Council is now being asked to ratify the proposed settlement.
DISCUSSION
As noted above, our most recent public works department labor contract
ran for a term of two years. We have enjoyed great success with the twa year
,
contract as it minimizes• the amount of time spent annually on labor negotiations.
Recently Council approved a similar two year contract for our police patrol officers
bargaining unit.
Based on input received from the Council during the labor negotiations, the
terms of settlement were to be kept within specific defined parameters. In terms
of wages, it is proposed that hourly rates be increased by three percent in 1995
and by three percent in 1996. These increases are consistent with those
approved for non-union City employees in 1995, and for police patrol officers in
both 1995 and 1996.
In terms of employee health insurance, it is proposed that the City'
contribution towards coverage be increased 516.00 per month, bringing �
monthly contribution to 5340.00 per employee. The need for this increa:
related to the ever escalating health insurance premiums imposed by our
plan provider. The City Council previously approved an identical 1995 irn
all non-union City employees and our police patrol officers. For 1996, it i
proposed that our public works employees receive a health insurance con
equal to whatever amount the City Council provides to other non-union C
employees at that time.
RECOMMENDATION
I believe this proposed settlement package accomplishes all of the
set forth by the City Council for this particular round of contract negotia�
proposed settlement is within our established settlement parameters and
funds are available in the adopted 1995 budget to implement this contra
settlement. The revised contract language has been accepted by the Ba�
Unit, and I strongly recommend that the City Council ratify the outlined 1
settlement.
ACTION REQUIRED
Should Council concur with my recommendation, a motion to apprc
1995-1996 Labor Contract Settlement as� described above between the C
Mendota Heights and Teamsters Local No. 320 should be considered. In
the Mayor, City Administrator and City Clerk should be authorized to exec
formal labor contract document which incorporates the described contrac
revisions.

Although construction of the project may continue into late November, this should not

completion of the street construction this year, depending on weather, various portions of the
street work will have to be finished in spri.ng of 1996.

It is assumed that the developer would complete the grading of the streets so no costs

Assessments would be used to cover the cost of the utilities. Although there are 201ots
in the subdivision only 18 would be assessed resulting in each lot being assessed equally an
estimated amount of $14,350.

The City Council should note that the in ground swimming pool, a�s shown
on the attached site plan, will require more than a five foot (5') excavation and
more than 100 cubic yards of earth to be removed. Because of the amo nt of
excavation necessary to construct the pool, the City Planner, Planning C mmission

also note that review of the associated construction of the retaining wall�and pool
enclosure fence will be done when the swimming pool critical area applioation
returns for full Planning Commission and City Council review. I

The project includes a spa tub, a deck, a porch and an enclosed alkway
which connects the porch to the proposed garage addition (see attached site plan).
Upon review of the site plan submitted, all of the above proposed constr ction will
be in excess of the required forty foot setback from the forty percent (4 %) slope
(bluffline). I have also checked with Mr. Heaver and he has indicated no trees will
be removed.

The Palmer's, of 675 Ivy Falls Court, received a Wetlands Permit t

their side lot property lines and the Planning Commission, as a condition
approval, required that a survey be conducted to accurately locate those
lines. Council granted the Wetlands Permit along with that condition.
�
The Palmer's hired McLagen S�urveying to locate their property line
however it was discovered when they began. the survey, that monument
so poor in the area that the survey woutd be unusually difficult. Because
difficulty, the survey costs will be much more expensive than a normal Ic
(in excess of S 1,000). The Palmer's� decided to move their fence approp
from the Iot lines to insure that the fence does not encroach on their neic
property. They therefore request that they be released from the conditio

Memorandum to: Whomever it may concern
City Government
Mendota Heights, MN
Subject: Fence at 675 Ivy Falls Court
1. When the City Council gave its permission for me to erect a fence around a
portion of i�he back yard of my home at 675 Ivy Falls Court, it indicated that a survey
would be necessary to delineate the properiy line between my home and the one
neighboring house where the fence would follow the joint property line.
2. We tried to do that. , I had city officials come out to show me where the survey
points were. They could find none, even though there had allegedly been a city
conducted survey just months ago when work was done on the creek running behind
my home. I then hired a private survey company to do the survey, but, after searching
for hours, they also could not locate a city survey point. The supervisor said that they
could run a survey from some point at quite a distance, but that it would cost upwards
of a thousand dollars.
3. At that point, I decided to change the location of the fence line. It has been
rnoved away from the joint property line and is now entirely inside my own property.
That is not where I had preferred to place it, but there seemed to be no other option
that passed the test of common sense.
4. I am informing you, after conferring with a knowledgeable city official, in
order to complete the record on this project.

The Monastery of the V"�sitation has requested and received aa early footing and foundation permit
from the (�t.y Cowicil to begin construction of a screened in porch/gazebo on the convent property.
�he screened in gazebo is a donation to the Monastery of the V'isitation as a memorial and the donor
family is. planning a dedication in mid-August. The Sisters have already notified the Planning
Commission of iheir intent to seek a footing and foundation approval prior to this public heating.
The overall V'�sitation campus is approximately 60 acres in size with the proposed strusture placed
approximately in the middle. It would be generally unnoticed by adjacent neighbors or by anyoae
traveling on adjacent public roads. The structure is to be nestled in existing woods and is for the
private use of the Sisters.
Section 7.2(7� allows Accessory Structures by Conditional Use Permit when they exceed the limits
otherwise prescn'bed. For lots of more than four acres, the permitted size is 425 square feet. The
proposed gazebo is 899 square feet. Thus, it requires a Conditional Use Permi� Notices have beea
mailed and a public hearing is necessary. �
Those who may wish to visit the site, please call Sister Helen (454-6474) to arrange a site visit.

Conditional Use Permit for Accessory
Structure in the Industrial Zone and
Conditional Use Pernut for fill E ceeding 400
Cubic Yards
.� C. John Uban
At the May 23, 1995 meeting, the Planning Commission continued the Public Hearing
request for Conditional Use Pernut for accessory structure in order to provide 1V
engineer with MnDOT, time to prepare proper plans. Also, the Conditional Use P�
cover the amount of fill being brought onto the site since it exceeds 400 cubic yards.
For additional background information, please review the May 23, 1995 Planning
reviewed specific aspects of the proposal. This review will focus on the additional in
was submitted and comment on the revised plans and information that was needed to p
this Conditional Use Permit.
The chemical storage building is needed to provide a safe method of mixing and loadi
servicing over 3 87 lane miles of State �Lghway. The facility will serve 23 trucks and ne
capacity to serve highway maintenance crews in storm conditions. The proposed plan
and loading within a building and not in the open which will reduce the brine problem

7une 21, 1995 Case 95-06 Page 2
A revised Grading Plan was submitted with a contour map showing grading that was not included
in the last submittal. The Grading Plan indicates where the placement of the additiona13,000 cubic
yards of fill will take place. Based on the City's topographic information, MnDOT may have already
placed significant fill in this area prior to this application.
Mr. Woodri� the maintenance supervisor, and Mr. Pirkl cannot attend the 7une meeting, but request
a review of the plans as they have been submitted so that they can answer questions and revise plans
for the 7uly meeting with final review at the Council's August 1, 1995 meeting. MnDOT is planning
construction for August of this year. � �
Mr. Woodriff has met with Acacia Cemetery personnel to review the problems of erosion and
construction debris. He has assured Acacia Cemetery that he will not allow the erosion problem to
continue. He has repaired the erosion that took pla�e with the wash out of a temporary construction
road and will be available at any time to correct any problems that Acacia Cemetery has. To my
knowledge, this issue of erosion with Acacia Cemetery has been resolved.
The Planning Commission should discuss the revised information and fill request of MnDOT and
continue the Public Hearing until the July Planning Commission meeting.
Conditional Use Permit
As proposed, the structure is to be 16,000 s.f. in size with a height of 25 ft. The proposed pre-
finished metal panels are to match the existing office�building on the site and will be brown and tan
in color. . _
The Grading Plan that is submitted does not show erosion control measures but we have been told
that silt fencing is presently in place to control erosion of the filling activity that is now underway.
Although it has not been expressed on any plans, we anticipate MnDOT will use their standard
specifications for soil erosion and turf establishment for exposed soil. This should be a condition of
approval.
Site Lighting has been show� on the Grading Plan and specified to be shielded with no-light spilling
offthe property. �
The ponding has been sized to a one hundred year storm and is proposed to have less problems with
salt runoffbecause salt will be stored, mixed, and loaded within the building and under the canopy.
Staff has been told that MriDOT also proposes to enclose this new area, with a 6 foot, black vinyl
clad, chain link fence on the south, west, and north sides of the property.
In reviewing the revised Landscape Plan and Grading Plan, it is evident that certain items will need
to be more carefully looked at and coordinated between the plans and noted on the dimensioned Site
Plan as well. The configuration of the paved area and location of plant material is not consistent
between the Plans. Both Plans indicate that the paved area is being substantially enlarged from the
7une 21, 1995 Case 95-06
previous condition, and is in fact moving closer to Acacia Cemetery. I have enclosed a
Plan from the Dakota County's Aerial Recognizance which clearly shows the
and contours for the site.

None of the Plans show property lines so it becomes difficult to determine how close thE
new facilities are being placed adjacent to the Cemetery. Although there is a property
the railroad and the MnDOT facility, they are both owned by MnDOT. The region�
created by a use and maintenance agreement between the County and MnDOT. D�
wants to review the screening of the trail. ' �
The Land�cape Plan shows location and size for the holding pond as well as a drainag
the Acacia Cemetery property. The Grading Plan shows a smaller configuration for
does not show any drainage swale along the property line. Additionally, the Landsca�
a maintenance access area adjacent to Acacia Cemetery where MnDOT has been infor.
access to the holding pond will come from Sibley Memorial �Tighway to the west. Th
place and will serve only the pond and will not access any other portion of the site.
The Landscape Plan shows some additional plantings specifically along Acacia Cemet
property line. The plant sizes, however, are still undersized according to City Or�
requires a 6 ft. height for evergreens and a 2'/z" caliper for deciduous trees. Becai
viewed from Acacia Cemetery to the north and also from the northeast due to the slo
of the land, we suggest additional evergreen material be placed along the northern edge
corner of the MnDOT site for appropriate screening. Also to the west, adjacent to Sil
H'ighway and the Regional Trail, we suggest additional evergreen material for screeni
sensitive view will be from Acacia Cemetery because it will have views to the loadi
building. The Landscape Plan should also include turf establishment on steep slopes w
this area. These steep slopes cannot be easily maintained. Native plant material is suggE
slopes.
Action
Reopen the Public Hearing and make recommendations to the applicant on the compl
plans with changes or additions as may be required. Continue the Public Hearing
request to the 7uly Planning Commission meeting.
Conditions
Revise Dimension, Landscape, and Grading Plans to show property lines
paving pattern, holding pond, erosion control, and pond access.
2. Based on the amount of fill brought on the property, MnDOT should provide
establishment specifications and details for steep slope areas.
3. Additional screening is needed along Acacia Cemetery and along the west side
Memorial H'ighway and Regional Trail. All plant material to be sized to meet (

Dear 1VIr. Pirkl:
I am writing to formally notify you that the Planning Commission, at their May 23, 1995
meeting, continued the public hearing on your request for a Cond.itional Use Permit for
Accessory Structure application to provide you with time to adequately address the Zoning
Ordinaace requirements for a Conditional Use Permit application. A proper application for a
Conditional Use Permit requires that each item listed in 5ection 5.6(2) be addressed including
all the required requests for information listed under Section 5.6(2)b - Site Development Plan,
5action 5.6(2)c - Dimension Plaa, Section 5.6(2)d - Grading Plan, and Section 5.6(2)e -
Landscape Plaa. (Please see attached.)
Ia particular, the Planning Commission expressed concerns about inadequate, or omitted, plans
for site lighting, screening of Acacia property and the regional trail p`roperty, grading and
storm water drainage, erosion control, landscaping and fill. At the public hearing, you stated
that approximately 3,000 cubic yards of fill would. be brought in for the regrading of the site.
Aay fill in an amount excceding 400 cubic yards requires a Conditional Use Permit and this
will have to be iacluded in your application for an accessory structure.
In order that you may be placed on the Planning Commission's agenda for 7une 27, 1995, it
will be necessary for you to submit additional plans, as required by the Zoning Ordinance,
including site plan, dimension plan, grading plaa and laadscape plan. These plans should be
submitted no later than Monday, June 19, 1995. 5hould you have any questions, or concerns,
please contact me at 452-1850.
Sincerely,
C�- �

FROM: Kevin Batchelder, Administrative Assisi��
SUBJECT: R�vised Tree Preservatian Qrdinance
INTRQDUCTION
City Council conducted a first reading of the Tree Preservation Orc
their meeting on June 20, 1995. The ard'rnance that they considered at �
was the product of efforts by the Planning Cammission to draft a compre
Tree Preservation Ordinance regulating removal o# trees throughout ihe {
During consideration of this ordinance, a petition was received by City Cc
with 19 6 signatures from residents oppased..to a Tree Preservation Ordin�
City Council discussed the draft ardinance with the residents in at
and agreed #hat #he proposed ordinance was too restrictive. Counci! ind
their original intentians were to prevent clear cutting and to preserve lar�
tracts in the City. City Council directed staff to revise the proposed ordi
ihat it only affected large undeveloped properties, prahibited clear cuttin
preserved fihe perimeter of praperties being developed.
DISCUSSIC}N
A revised draft ordinance is attached for your review. The ordinan
been scaled back and no longer requires owners of developed residential
under twa acres to obtain a tree removat permit. The ordinance states tt
cutting is prohibited without a permit in all zoning districts and states tha
maximum amount af woodtands shautd be preserved on the perimeter af
developing properties.
Also proposed is a revision to Section 4.1(4ah of the Subdivision O
No. 301 to make it clear that a tree replacement pian is required during s
review (please see attached language},

Nbdivision
s
Because this draft ordinance has just recently been completed there has not
been much time for public review, especially by large lot owners who remain
affected by the proposed regulations. City staff has notified those individuals who
have indicated their interest in this ordinance.
City Council should once again conduct a first reading of this draft
ordinance. Many of the residents who opposed the previous draft were concerned
about regulations on single family properties. Many property owners, especially
large lot owners, have not had much of an opportunity to react to the latest draft.
Staff has met with Mrs. Kathleen Ridder who owns a very large undeveloped
residential parcel and is in opposition to any tree removal requirements (see
attached letter).
ACTION REQUIRED
Review the proposed Tree Preservation Ordinance and conduct a first
reading. Provide directiQn on the draft ordinance language and future course of
action.
Note: On a related issue, Council will find attached a letter from Mr. Chris Riley in
which he proposes to volunteer his services to tag diseased elm trees for
removal. This item will be brought to Council on August 15, 1995.

ROSERT B. RIDDFR
July 24, 1995
City Council
City of Mendota Heights.�
3101 Victoria Curve
Mendota Heights, N� 55118
As long time residents of the City of Mendota Heights, my
wife, Kathleen Ridder, and myself are quite concerned about
the effect and restrictions that may be imposed upon our
property as a result of the proposed Ordinance relating to
trees in the City of Mendota Fieights. We strongly oppose
this Ordinance and urge you not to pass it.
We live at 1744 Dodd Road, which is a beautiful homesite
consisting of approximately 36 acres on which there are
many trees. When we moved onto that property approximately
50 years ago, it was farmland and there was not-a tree in
sight. We personally planted most of those trees and many
we simply allowed to grow in the wild. We hav�' planted new
trees, cut down and trimmed trees where that was necessary,
and see no reason why our freedom and ability to manage all
growing things on our property should or needs to be
restricted.
Unfortuna�tely, • both Kathleen and m��self will be out of town
and unavailable to attend the City Council meeting on
August 1, which we understand is the meeting to discuss
this Ordinance concerning trees, but we do want the City
Council to understand our strong objection to this type of
interference with our property rights and we have asked our
attorney to attend that meeting and represent these views
to you in our behalf. .
Ve truly yours,

Dear Mr. Mertensotto and Council:
I would like to add my voice in opposition to the proposed tree preservation
ordinance. I am a long-t�rm resident of 1Vlendota. Heights. I was present at
the 6-2-95 meeting, but unfortunately had to leave before the matter was
discussed. I videotaped the rest of the meeting, though, and watched it later.
This issue has stirred my interest in city affairs to an unusual degree, for me.
I believe that the proposed ordinance is unnecessary, counterproductive,
unenforceable, and is a classic example of micromanagement. At the very
least, I would ask that developed residential and commercial property be
exempted. With regard to all undeveloped.property, commercial and
residential, I would prefer that existing controls be modified, as necessary, to
accomplish tree preservation; with a preference for the greatest possible
latitude given to the property owner.
Thank you for your consideration of my opinion in this ma.tter.
Sincerely, �

�`�'lan to require permit
r`for tree removal is axed
,,,.,
BIL! GARDNER sT,a�F wR1TeR
�he gist of the proposed ordinance was
th�,s; Mendota Heights doesn't want peo-
pre. to cut down trees.
.�he law began by listing its lofty in-
terit, which included such things as pre-
vgn ting erosion, adding oxygen to the
aE�mosphere, reducing noise pollution,
controlling drainage, providing a haven
•f�; .birds and thereby reducing insects,
pt4kecting property values and enhancing
th� quality of life. •
�ome citizens of Mendota Heights
looked at this noble effort and then told
��
� �„
the City. Council: Get off our backs. .
If a person wants to cut down a tree in
his own yard, that's lus business, not the
government's. That's what a group of
. citizens told the City Council last week.
And the City Council agreed.
"It was clearly the consensus of the
council, that the ordinance is toe restric-
tive for existing residential and commer-
cial property," said City Administrator
,Tom La�vell.
The council asked city staff to redraw
the tree ordinance so it doesn't apply to
homes and businesses in the city.
"The intent was to preserve existing
large stands of tree predominantly on
� • undeveloped property," Lawell said.
But the proposed ordinance said that a
property owner could not remove a sig-
nificant tree on his land without obtain-
ing a germit from the city.
That upset Sten Ger#ast, who led a�
drive against the oFdinance and �athered
more, than 100 signatures on a petition.
Gerfast and about 20 other residents
showed up at �esday's. City Council
meeting and persuaded the council that
the proposed ordinance interfered with
private property rights. •
"I did this in principle," Gerfast said.
"I didn't do it because I had any specific
trees I.wanted to cut down. I feel strong-
ly the government�should not be•doing
this." •
The proposed ordinance was aLso quite
complex, with talk about signi#icant
trees, landmark trees, tree canopies, crit-
ical raot zones, drip lines.and all sorts of
measurements and percentages.
"It was: too complicated," Lawell said.
'`It was much more involved than what it
needs to be." �
T.he proposed law came about because
the council was upset that five acres of
trees had been clear-cut last year.� They
placed a moratorium on tree cutting in
March while they considered the tree
ordinance. � -
The mtiratorium remains. until . •the
council, deals with the ordinanee; proha=
bly in August, Lawell said. :, �•
"If they do what they,�indicated they
will do, I think most of t,�e. �eople will be
OK with it," Gerfast said. �"There �.is�� a
ground swell among people today �aliout
too., much .government interference, and
this• is a• case in point " '

During Texaco's ownership, the interior of the store was remodeled to a coi�venience

Sunfish Lake Gravity Outlet
Joint Powers Agreement
DISCUSSION:
Council authorized staffto participate with the City of Sunfish Lake in
a joint powers agreement for the construrtion and operation of a gravity outlet
Sunfish Lake to regulate lake levels at the July 6, 1995, Council meeting (see a
memo dated 6/29/95).
Since that time, Tim Danielson and I have met with Mayor Frank Tiffany a�
I�untz, City Attorney. During these meetings we have tried to incorporate the con

The proposed Sunfish Lake outlet control structure would consist of a 1�"
diameter polyethylene gravity storm sewer conduit with an integrai vaive, and tamper
resistant locking mechanism, wluch could be iacrementally opened or closed as
conditions warrant. Lake discharge from that control structure would flow in a series
of ditches to a culvert under Delaware �venue that is connected directly to the tone
Road/Fieldstone Drive storm sewer system discharging to Copperf'ield Pond in
Mendota. Heights (see attached exhibits). The discharge from this lake outlet s cture,
even at high lake levels would be small relative to the downstream capacity of t�e
Mendota Heights storm sewer system. 'These minor flows, when combined with the
flexibility of this system to control or terminate discharge as conditions warrant,� should
ensure that the design capabilities of the Mendota Heights storm sewer system a�e not
adversely affected. I

Sunfish Lake is eager to construct this improvement as soon as possible. In order
to expedite construction of this improvement in the shortest period possible, this joint
powers agreement is being presented before the Sunfish Lake City Council on the same
day it is being presented to Mendota Heights.
John Gorder, City Engineer of Sunfish Lake has requested that this item be
included on this Council meeting agenda for discussion due to the emergency situation
caused by the high water levels of Sunfish Lake. He will be available at the Council
meeting to answer any of your questions regaxding this agreement or the proposed
improvement, subsequent to having presented the item to the City of Sunfish Lake.
RECOMMENDATION•
I request that Council review the attach�d joint powers agreement, and if possible,
contact us prior to the Council meeting with ariy comments on the proposed joint powers
agreement as written, so that they might be incorporated into the agreement prior to the
Council meeting. The joint powers agreement indemnifies Mendota Heights and
outlines a procedure under which the minor lake discharges relative to the downstream
capacity of the Mendota Heights storm sewer system can be controlled, or terminated
as conditions warrant, to insure that the design capabilities of the Mendota Heights
storm sewer system are not adversely affected. For these reasons, I recommend that
Council approve the construction, operation, and a joint powers agreement to cover a
gravity storm sewer outlet from Sunfish Lake.
ACTION REOUIItED:
Council should review the attached joint powers agreement, and be prepared to
review any new or additional correspondence which may be subsequently developed and
distributed at, or before, the upcoming Council meeting for the construction, operation,
and maintenance of a gravity storm sewer outlet from Sunfish Lake. If the Council is
satisfied that all of City's concerns have been adequately addressed, Council should pass a
resolution approving the construction, operation, and maintenance of a gravity storm
sewer outlet from Sunf sh Lake, and the joint powers agreement as proposed. If the
Council has concerns with issues that are not addressed in the construction, operation, and
maintenance of a gravity storm sewer outlet from Sunfish Lake as proposed, or with this
joint powers agreement as written, Council should be prepared to pass a resolution
approving the construction and operation of the proposed improvements, or joint powers
agreement, with conditions, which adequately address those concerns. �

ISSUES ANALYSIS
Water Use Ordinance. The City's Water Use Ordinance was adopted on 11 September 1989 for
the purpose of and with the intent to: .
1. Conserve and protect the,{�atural resources of any lake, stream, wetland, or pond.
2. Regulate alteration of such natural resources so as to protect ecological balance.
3. Control development in a manner that will be in harmony with the ecological systems.
The Ordinance also states �that the discharge of storm water by a man-made device shall be deemed
�n "interim use" under Minnesota Statute 462.3597 and the procedure required for obtaining such
is the same as requu�ed for a SpeciaUConditional Use Pernu� Interim Uses are defined as a temporary
use of property until a particular date, until the occurrence of a particular event, or un� zoning
regulations no longer allow it.
Water Resource Management Plan. Sunfish Lake currently exists as a landlocked lake without a
storm water outle� Ia recogriition o� the high water leveLs at present and potential negative impacts
from such conditions, the City's Water Resource Management Plan specifically recommends the
installafion of a gra.vity outlet. In this regard, the plan states the following:
It is recommended that a gravity outlet.be installed on Sunfish Lake at an elevation
lower than the natural outlet. A lower outlet would establish a normal level for the
lake so that the length of time the lak�e remains at high levels would be reduced. If an -
outlat is not installed, the rate of discharge from the lake into Mendota Heights during
extreme events cannot be easily controlled. An outlet can limit the rate of discharge ...-
from the lake during major storm or snow melt events that may occur during extended
periods of above nornial precipitatioa
Interim Use Permit Review Criteria. The Planning Commission shall recommend that the City
Council deny the request for an interim use pernut unless the Planning Commission finds the
following:
a. That the pmposed use will not create an exoessive burden on parks, schools, streets and
other public facilities and utilities which serve or are proposed to serve the area
3 � � ...� ,
� Any "burden" resulting from the pmpased outlet pipe essentially would rest upoc
Mendota Heights storm water cirainage system� The Sw�fish Lake City Engineer h
that Mendata Heights' storm dra3nage systern holds ampie capacity to handl
resulting fram the proposed outlet and that the,City of Menciota. Heights is general
t to the praposal. To demonstrate that such'storm water can be effectively re
recommended that a repart be grepared estimating water dischazge quantities i
af Mendota Heights' system. Such report should be subject to review and accep�
City of Mendota Heights. If accepted, a letter documenting Mendota Heights'
the internn use pernut requests should be provided as a condition of approval.
b.
The proposed outlet pipe is not ai�ticipated to diminish area praperty values. ?
attached Exhibit B, the propc�sed aatlet pipe is to be located ± i20 feet fror.
residence near the north praperty line. '

That the propased use will be sufficiently separated by distance vr scre�

discharge of water will flow into the ditch along the south side of Charlton Raad a
of Delaware Avenue. To accommadate increased�water flaws, the said ditch wil

This issue shauld be subje�t to fiuth�r comment by the City Engineer. The instal

The con�rol of exc.�ss storm water nmaff relates ta a basic City goal of protecting

e. That the proposed use is consistent with the purposes of the Zoning Code. �
The City Code stipulates that the direct dischazge of storm water by man-made devices, or �'
alteration of natural storm water drainage routes &om any lake requires the issuance of a
water use permit (interun use pernut). The purpose of this pravision is to:
1) � Conserve and protect the natural resources of any lake, stream, wetland, or pond.
2) Regulate alteration of such natural resources so as to protect ecological balance.
3) Control development in a manner that will be in harmony with the ecological systems.
The proposed installation of a storm water - overtlow outlet is consistent with- the
aforementioned purpose statement provided within the Zoning Ordinance.
f. That the prnposed use is not in conflict with the development plan of the City.
The proposed overflow outl�t w�l not impact the development plan of the City as no change
in land use will result.
g. That the prnposed nse wil! not have an adverse impact upon the City's property tax
base.
As aoted previously, ths control of Sunfish Lake's water levei is not anticipated to negatively
inapact area property values (or the City's tax base). In fact, the ability to maintaia a stable
water elevation is considered an asset to the City which could escalate property values.
SunSsh Lake Level Readings. As a means of identifying approptiate piping elevation, the
Departmeat of Natural Resources was asked to calculate the onlinary high water mark of Sw�i'ish
Lake. On 24 May 1994, it was determined that the OHWM for the lake is 937.0 feet above sea leveL
The 100 y�ar flaod level of the lake is considered to be at or near 939.9. Historical readings of lake
levels, outlined below, indicate that the average lake elevation so far this season is 937.7, while the
average during the 1991 season was 935.12. The most recent reading of 937.73 represents the
lughest recorded level since 1947. The City Fonester has reported 200+ trees which are dead or dying
as a result of the high lake levels.
The Department of Natural Resources has recoinmended that the outlet pipe be installed (outside
their jurisdiction) at a depth of 937 feet, plus one inch to make certain that tt�e lake level will not
exceed the �ordinary high water mark.
Monitoring. As part of the outlet pipe installation, some provision should be made to allow periodic
monitoring of Sunfish Lake water levels. To address this issue, the installation of a gauge has been
installed upon the Bancroft property. Such gauge would be monitored weekly by a d�signated
Lakeshore Association member or oCher designated agent. '
Agreemen�. As a conditian af interim use permit approval, an agreement should be e
� the� Cities of Sun�ish L,ake, Mendata Heights and the property owner which fully
operation vf the out�et pipe. Specific items which should be addressed include:
❑
n
Monitoringlmaintenance responsibilities (ie., Sunfish Lake, Mendota Heights,
member, DNR Area Hydrologist).
Water %vels.
Pipe operation in times af flood (i.e., discharge rate).
This issue should be subject to fiuther comment by the City Engineer.
To facilitate regulaz monitozing and maintenance af the out�et; we recomrnend that
Mendota Heights public works officials, City Engineer or other designated agency
engineering �rm} as apgmved by the City Councii be hired by ihe association. Titis will e:

storm water during times of flood. In this regard, it is recornmended that in times of flood, specific
valumes of water release be reg�ated by the DNR Area �iydro%gist.
