Plaza Drive Mendota Heights, Minn, 5511$ Dear Sir: Enclased is an itemiz�d accoun� of damages incurred during the severe rainstorm and flaod which took glace August 34, 1977. E that time water, mud and sewage from the sanitary sewer backed into my basement and deposited as much as five inches of the mi sewage water, Considerable damage occuxred w:ith extensive Ias: of property as itemized $� 7�� . This is the second time tha� the sanitary sewer has backed np into my basement in a�foi year period. In ,�anuary of 197'3 the basement was flooded with six inches of waCer from the sanitary sewer. This was caused by a blackage in the city sanitary sewer line. It is na coincidence that sewage backed up into my basement tw ce in a four year period, and I now have na assurance that th�.s w 11 not recurr. in additian �o the loss of property incurred, tha value of my house has depreciated many thousands of dollars since I could �iat in conscience withhold such infarmation from a prospective buyer. Please give me an early answer as to your Iiability in ths.s ma and even more important, action taken ta prevent a recurrence. Sin rely yours, , , .x-+-�r Leanard Levitan, M.D. �ter �tCtr �t17.

There is a structure on this propert� used as a sheet metal shop. I purchased the property in � e€ 1977. I was about to proceed with remodelina the stru� to �nake it habitable, when the rain storm came causina thE �o back up, thus floodina my property. I shall now� proceed to describe the damaae in detail v:�en the sewer backed up, it caused the water to rush dow driveway into mv �araae, which incidently did not have a crete floor, hut dirt; With no pla�e to ao it simply bur into �ty founc!atfon and pro�eeded to collapse my wall, lea my bas�ment with dirt on top of concrete blocks, aivina m appr�ximately four feet of clearance in my basement fram to ceilina. Luckily, the water had some where to ao, «hi out the oiher side of the buildir�a throuah two wooden doo some blocked up wrindo�vs, also on�this�same side the flood caused a huae ravine next to my house �North side) ��rh�ch �e filled. (Nawever, na structural damaae seems to be pr I had employed a contractor tb remodle the house prior to storm. However, no work had been done. We stfll have to the wall befor� anythina elee �s to be done. His estimat N:hat it vaould tbst is a minimum af 3,000 dol�a�s, for cle �nd a new wa11. If there had been a more adequate system to handle t volume of t��ater �� nyay n�t have been as serioc�s. Due to unfurtc�nate tGr;� af we�ther, I am af�ra�d that this could ana3 �, even i f the r� ; nfal l was . ��a� �., as much, s impl y bec the natural water s�ed has been �-uined. I hope some step be taken to improve this sitc�tation. However, I am now s ►iith a mess,- and I expect s�,�� help in ti�e `ast of repair my property.

Mr. Riley, we understand, has owned the property in question for en or twelve years. The land was zoned R-3 under the Comprehensive Pla . This land use is �recommended because of the relatively isolated nature of the property being bounded by the Cemetery and Lexington Avenue on th west, the commercial district on the south, and alignment of 35E on the east. 2. The applicant proposes to develop the land for multiple purposes s indicated in a sketch plan prepared by the applicant's planning c nsultant a copy of which is attached to this report. The total number of nits would equal 434 on a site area of 25.79 acres. This would create an overall gross density of 17 dwelling units per acre. 3. Though the original zoning ordinance adopted by the City included provisions for such a density district, the ordinance was amended subsequent y to require approximately ten dwelling units per acre for multiple dw lling zones in the City. The applicant is seeking permission to vary f om the density requirement of about 10 units to acre to 17 units per acr . 4. We feel that such a drastic change in density, should not come un'er the provisions for variance. A variance is a procedure wherein an ap licant is allowed to vary from a specific requirement due to hardship co ditions relating to physical conditions on the site, site size, terrain, �ocation of trees, site limitations, etc. We suggest that if the City wis es to consider a density of greater than 10 units per acre, that we be equested to consider appropriate provisions for a new zoning district prov ding for density and other controls that might be slightly higher than tha existing in the current ordinance.(though they may not be as high as that proposed by the applicant). 5. We do feel that there is a case for having more than one multiple in a corrmunity. Many communities have a whole range of densities multiple housing types provided for in their ordinance, providing greater flexibility in application of the various districts to thE parts of the City. Such changes in development policy, of course a principal subject of study and concern in the development of th� Comprehensive Plan contemplated to begin this year. district and for a . various �wi 11 be ; updated t1 �i t� �r"� � --} �;j � � • . , „ " "''v �+ � �r ' ' ,' / i . x . ..,,. � y �;, i `� ---�- (� 1 -�i. ` `� `� '•ut'�s,;yG r � ,,ti� , , '�� - - # � �� •/ .. �.r., _. � -,' � �:-� r- .. . . . . � . �� -.� ... � ; } � � ,.�. , . 4'K E �a�� . � , . 1 .. � ° � uJ _ ' . � � . ; � ' iQUGUSTA - - COUNTRY �� i' ` R E UR C'ION • • .

Bystrom Lot 12, Block 1, Guadalupe Heigt (see sketch) Approval of Side Yard Variance its Mr. Bystrom proposes to add a 19 foot by 12 foot addition to the ear of his garage for the purpose of accorrrnodating inside storage for ga dening equipment, woodworking tools, and general storage. As you will n te from the attached drawing of his proposed addition, his existing arage is 20 feet by 22 feet with a stairway in it. Thus, it is not a f 11- size double garage. . 2. Attached is a copy of the letter from Mr. Bystrom's contiguous pr perty owner, Mr. David W. Johnson. The letter indicates his approval o the location of the new garage, the corner of which would be seven fe t from his side lot line versus the required ten feet. Thus, the actual intrusion into the ten foot required side yard is merely a triang lar portion of the building consisting of only nine square feet. You will note that the corner of the existing garage is 11 feet from the proper y line. The proposed intrusion into the side yard is approximately 55 fee from the front of the lot, and thus will not have significant affect n the appearance from the street. The distance between the proposed ad ition and the contiguous house would appear to be approximately 25 feet indicating that the contiguous home is approximately 14 feet from the side lot line. � 3. It is significant to note that the addition to garages, commonly � suburban residential homes provides additional storage f or materi� which otherwise might be stored outside. Thus, such additions. frE add to the quality of the neighborhood, and benefit contiguous pr� It would appear that the proposal as requested is a reasonable onE the Planning Commission and Council's consideration. � one to ls quently perties. for �,%� , �,�,�� y j'1a :' -'�` _ �/,%� ; � •�".i-.-��'--�� '�,'.�. � ;�.,,'�.,..�' _. , �•l �C � f ,zr. 4•_..�- � ~ y !.�'_� 1 > � t t�a 1 =-.. ` � 1�?

It was too early to assess the cost of repairs to the park 3. 4. der ndly Hi I Is �around e to Marie Dick Dwinnell of Howard Dahlgren and Assocs. appeared before the Commissio to discuss the possibility of applying' for grants from the Federal Land 8� Water Commission Fund Act and the State Legislative Commission Minnesota Resources grants to acquire and develop outdoor recreation facilities. He presented a detailed memo regarding .the eligibility of different types of projects and indicated the deadline for submitting an applica ion was 5 pm on September 16. After a considerable discussion, the Commission agreed to apply for grant monies for the following improvements. a. (mproving trails and construction of necessary bridges b. Trail signs c. Playground equipment for 2 more parks d. Land acquisition and development cost of 2 Babe Ruth parks - e. Sand for improving the swimming beach at Rogers Lake One of the criteria for selection was that an overall plan for the development o system be accomplished prior to application for grants. It was felt that the plar has been done by the Commission and, in particular, the trails plcan completed c years ago might be sufficient. It was felt that even though our chances are slirr with little time to prepare the application, that it would be good to do it to gei back and apply again next year when these funds are available. � the park ni ng that i couple of this year any comments Discussion was had regarding the Mendota Company plat at I-35E and through ighway 110. The property owners have offered to give us 10+ acres of land rather than the c sh and ease- ment which was the prior recommendation of the Commission. No action was t ken as Johnson was not there to comment on whether or not precedent had been set reg rding land contiguous to our present trai I system, which this property is. Part of the trai I plan uti I izes some of this land. Witt was to discuss this with Johnson prior to the next meeti g of the Commission and report back. u Page two 5.

With the cantinued expansion af single family residences within the City, addi iana) parks may be needed and further development of existing parks can be accamplished. The criteria for obtaining grants from the Federal and State gavernments require that a defi itive plan be accomplished prior ta application for these grants. Thus, it was agreed that development fund priorities and future planning for parks be a goal to be accomplished by t Ie Commission in the near future. � There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.

Johnson City Administrator September 30, 1977 SUBJECT: 10� Surcharge on Water Billings Attached is a considerably revised ordinance establishing an� authorizing the collection of a 10� surcharge on water bills. I met with St. Paul Water officials on September 23rd to discuss th matter. They objected to several of the sections in the original ordinance and the attached version now meets with their approval with Sherm's approval. You will note the special provisions appl� to the Mendota Water Company billing procedure. I mentioned that this is a time-consuming process. St. Paul officials tell me that there is approximately a three month lead- ime before they can institute this collection process. They have a n er of inechanical details and programming details that must wend thei way through the process. Direction at this time is necessary in orde to institute this collection process effective January 1. I recommend your favorable consideration of this financing p oce so that the entire matter of water system improvements can procee without any more delay. Ed Kishel has been alerted to advise you on the status and progress o£ the Feasibility Study which was ordere on June 21, 1977. ss 0 CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS DAKOTA COUNTY, MINNESOTA ORDINANCE r10.

Radabaugh City Clerk CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS By Robert G. Lockwood Its Mayor e Mendota uded from for water vices. and effect :: Salaries Except far changes made in the saEa�ies of the mayor and cauncilmembers, no method is pres- cribed for determining salary schedules, but such action is usually taken by ordinance stating the name of the employee{s) or the ciass of positions, the jobs being performed, and the salary rate paid. Changes in the rates of pay can then be made by the passage af a similar ardinance. Whenever the council establishes or changes salaries, it should first determine whether or not its proposed actian is in accard with the budget and whether adequate revenues will be available. (See League memo "Campensatian of Statutory City Officers and Emplayees."� Since justices of the peace are compensated on a fee basis, the counci) cannot pay them a saEary in lieu of ar in addition to such fees.123 The salary af any official may, by appropriate action, be changed at any time during his term of office. Salary Limitation No sa[ary af a person empEoyed by a city, county, town, schaol baard, or ather political subd ivision may exc,�� that of the state Com- missioner of Finance. �Ehat except for initiaE salaries i mediately after incarporation, a change in salary does not become effectiv�,� until after the next egular municipal election. �'here is na referendu provision. Until a change is made, salaries remain at current levels. The salary authorization in t e law is designed to aliow the cauncil to fix its ompensation for all its duties. Thus, if the coun il feels that there shoulci be additional cornpensati n over and above the "base salary" for special mee ings, the amounts set by ordinance'shou{d reflect this. Salary changes should be ma e by ordinance, but a motion adopted with for a{ities substanti- ally equivalent to those for enact ent of ordinances has the le��effect of amendi g a prior salary ordinance. erk7 25 The councit may set at any ti the clerk which it deems necess� It is contemplated, however, th compensate the clerk for all his c ing certified copies, filing and er related to city business.
