CITY OF MENDOTA HEIGHTS
PARKS COMMISSION MINUTES
NOVEMBER 10, 1987
Members present were Commissioners Lachenmayer, LeffertI
Damberg, Stein, Katz. Commissioners Knittig and Owens had
previously informed the Commission that they would not be
present. Meeting was called to order at 7:07 P.M.
Commissioner Leffert moved, seconded by Commissioner
Lachenmayer, to approve the minutes of the October 13
meeting, with the change noting that Commissioner Damberg had
informed the Commission that she would be not be present.
COMMUNITY Professor John Schultz, professor of Parks
RECREATION and Recreation at the University of
NEED Minnesota, said that he had met with
Public Works Director Jim Danielson and
City Administrator Kevin Frazell, and had
read the City's Park and Recreation
Facilities Needs Analysis. Schultz noted
that Mendota Heights has a lot of arterial
roadways near its neighborhood parks,
which can prove as a barrier for small
children. He also said that he thought
the athletic complex chosen and developed
by the City would determine much of the
use of other spaces in the community.
Schultz and the Commission had some
discussion about how to flan for
recreation programming, including hiring a
full or part-time recreation director for
Mendota Heights only, and cooperative
efforts with other communities or the
school district. Schultz suggested that
the community would probably be most
satisfied having its own full-time person
to oversee maintenance and programming of
the athletic complex, and to handle
scheduling.
It was discussed that Professor Schultz
was willing to take on an analysis of the
Mendota Heights recreation needs as a
class project for his graduate students.
It was a7reed that Schultz would provide
City Administrator Frazell with a proposed
outline for the study, which could be
considered by the Commission at its
December meeting, then forwarded to the
City Council before the study begins early
next year.
ATHLETIC COMPLEX City Administrator Frazell informed the
Commission that earlier that same evening,
the City Council had decided not to work
further on the joint athletic complex with
the School District at the Henry Sibley
campus, and instead to focus efforts on
the Riley property in the south end of
Mendota Heights. The Commission expressed
its general displeasure with the Council
decision, and expressed some skepticism
that the voters of Mendota Heights could
be persuaded to pay the extra cost for the
south east area site. Concern was also
raised as to whether the Council was
willing to make the financial commitment
necessary for maintenance of the Riley
site, and for providing staff for
recreation programming.
Commissioner Lachenmayer moved, seconded
by Commissioner Leffert, to request a
joint meeting with the City Council at the
next meeting of the Parks Commission, on
December 10, to discuss issues and
concerns with regard to the athletic
complex, and the promoting of the bond
referendum. Motion passed unanimously.
Developer Dick Putnam was present and
discussed his proposed layout on the Riley
�roVerty for the athletic complex. He
indicated that the athletic complex has
been integrated into the overall
residential development plan for the south
east area, and that the developers would
be willing to make the 30 some acres
necessary for the community park available
to the City for about $750,000, subject to
getting an acceptable development plan
approved. He added that this would be
about $22,000 per acre, drastically less
than the $35,000 per acre which had
previously been discussed.
Putnam presented the two plans labelled P-
1, the cul-de-sac, and P-2, the looped
street alternative. Parks Chair Stein
said he felt one of the major issues
between the two was whether or not the
neighborhood park should be separated from
the athletic complex. City Administrator
Frazell presented a memo from Parks
Planner Barry Warner, showing that the
cost of developing either plan would.be
about $1.25 million.
Chair Stein indicated that he preferred
separating the two parks in the P-2 looped
concept. Commissioner Lachenmayer agreed
that she preferred to see the neighborhood
park separate. Developer Putnam added
that the looped concept probably works
better for the future residential
neighbors of the park.
Commissioner Damberg moved, seconded by
Commissioner Lachenmayer, to recommend to
the City Council the P-2, looped street,
alternative. Motion passed unanimously.
WINTER WARMING The Commission discussed what would be
HOUSES done about operating the winter warming
houses and next summer's recreation
program, since the position of part-time
recreation director had been eliminated
from the 1988 budget. Administrator
Frazell reported that City staff was
receiving applications for warming house
attendants, and would soon be making a
decision about how to manage the warming
houses this year. He indicated that the
management would be under the public works
department, and we would likely be hiring
a college student, or some older type of
person to provide supervisory
responsibilities over the warming houses
during the evening hours.
There was also discussion that the Schultz
study of the recreation needs would not be
completed in time for getting a new
program put together next summer. The
Commission discussed options, including
having Mend -Eagan providing some of the
recreation services next summer, as well
as hiring a parks and recreation graduate
student to supervise the program.
ADJOURN There being no further business to come
before the Commission, the meeting was
adjourned at 9:37 P.M. +

MEMO
December 3, 1987
TO: Park & Recreation Commission
FROM: James E. Danielson
Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Foot Bridge to Somerset School
DISCUSSION:
The City Planning Commission and Council have recently approved a pre-
liminary plat for a ten lot subdivision north of 1st Avenue between Laura
and Clement (see attached drawing). During the public hearing at the Planning
Commission, the existing neighbors complained that they were very near
Somerset school but could not get to the school because of Ivy Creek. Now
with more new neighbors the problem would be expanded. They asked that the
City construct a bridge across the creek to give them access. The Planning
Commission agreed with the neighbors and recommended to the Council that
the bridge be constructed. The Council endorsed the idea and asked that
staff put the bridge in the public improvement project as a deduct alternate.
Final decision to be made depending on costs.
The bridge may be located on School District land so I have contacted
Lois Rockney and she indicated that the School District would allow the
construction. Estimated costs for the bridge and connecting paths is
$151000-30,000.
RECOMMENUA'1'ION
The Planning Commission and Council recommend constructing a foot bridge
connecting the lst Avenue neighborhood to Somerset School. The project
funding to be from the Park Fund.
ACTION E2EQUIRED:
Review the request and make comments to the City Council on the project.

PARK & RECREATION COMMISSION
MINUTES, OCTOBER 1AzL_ 1987
The regular meeting of the Park and Recreation
Commission was held on Tuesday, October 13. Chairman Stein
called the meeting to order at 7*00 P.M. The following
members were present: Stein, Leffert, Owens and Lachenmayer.
Knittig, and Katz had informed the Commission that they would
not be present. Absent was Damberg. Also present was
City Administrator Kevin Frazell.
MINUTE APPROVAL Minutes of the September 8 meeting were
approved as written.
PARK DEVELOPMENT City Administrator Frazell informed the
PLANS, VICTORIA Commission and audience that the City
HIGHLANDS Council and Planning Commission had
endorsed the park dedication as
recommended by the Parks Commission, He
then went over a section of the 1985 Park
and Recreation Facility Needs Study, in
which the consultant recommended that the
park in this area be developed with
playground equipment, open play field,
and multi -use hard court. It was noted
that the consultant recommended that
skating and hockey needs for this
neighborhood be met by Marie Avenue Park,
as these facilities are costly to develop
and maintain.
Brian Kamin, 900 Nina Court, endorsed
the consultant's recommendation, and said
it was the desire of the neighborhood to
have more of a neighborhood -oriented,
less active park. Other members of the
audience agreed.
After some discussion, the Commission
felt that in addition to the facilities
recommended in the consultant's report,
two tennis courts should be installed in
the park, and consideration given to a
bike trail system that would connect to
the City's overall bike trail plan.
Motion by Commissioner Lachenmayer,
seconded by Commissioner Leffert, to
recommend that the Victoria Highlands
park include two tennis courts,
playground equipment, a multi -use
playfield, multi -use hard court surface,
small off-street parking lot, and some
bike trail system.
Motion passed unanimously. It was agreed
that the recommendation would be
forwarded to the City's engineering
department and/or parks consultant to put
together a layout of the park.
CITIZEN REQUEST Mary Jeanne Schneeman, 792 Upper
Colonial Drive, was present regarding dog
waste and leash enforcement in public
parks. She indicated her concern to
the Commission that many citizens were
not observing the leash laws in the park,
and that they were allowing their dogs to
defecate in the parks without cleaning up
afterward. The Commission discussed the
fact that the City currently has no law
requiring owners to clean up dog waste in
public parks. She indicated that her
request was for the City to pass such an
ordinance, and then to put signing in the
parks indicating the requirements for
cleaning up dog waste and for observing
the leash law.
Motion by Commissioner Owens, seconded by
Commissioner Lachenmayer, to recommend to
the City Council adoption.of a dog waste
law, and the posting of all parks for
compliance with dog waste and leashing
regulations.
Motion passed unanimously*.
SZBLEY ATHLETIC City Administrator Frazell gave the
COMPLEX UPDATE Commission a brief update of the latest
discussion between City and School
District representatives, which had taken
place that morning. He indicated that
the discussions had reached a somewhat
frustrating point, in that the two sides
seem to be unable to come to an agreement
on ownership of the property at the
northwest part of the campus. Frazell
reported that the City representatives
had proposed to the School District that
the City simply buy the District's 3.5
acres at fair market value, so that the
City would have total ownership of the
property. He said that the District
officials were supposed to be thinking
about that option, and that the parties
would be meeting again next Tuesday
morning to continue discussions. He said
he felt it was getting to a point where a
decision was going to have to be made one
way or the other.
Chair Jim Stein suggested that perhaps
after the meeting next Tuesday, it was
time to get the full School Board, City
Council and Parks Commission back
together to review the status and make
some decisions about whether or not it
was going to be a workable arrangement.
The Commissioners also agreed that it was
important to begin generating some
positive supVort in the community for the
point athletic complex, to counteract all
of the negativism that had been getting
press coverage.
E{OCKEY RINK The Commission discussed a memo from City
MODIFICATIONS staff indicating cost to install hockey
rink improvements at Wentworth Park, as
proposed by Commissioner Owens. Motion
by Commissioner Owens, seconded by
Commissioner Lachenmayer to recommend to
the City Council installation of the
hockey improvements as proposed in the
bid of Midwest Fence Company in the
amount of $2,000. Motion passed
unanimously. It was agreed that
Commissioner Owens would attend the City
Council meeting on October 20 to answer
questions about the request.
RECREATION PROGRAM City Administrator Frazell reported on
ALTERNATIVES his discussions with the City of West St.
Paul and with School District 197. He
said that West St. Paul City Manager Bill
Craig and Recreation Director Bill
Kleineck were very enthusiastic about the
prospect of a joint recreation department
being co-operated by the two cities. The
Commission briefly discussed the kinds of
programs being offered by West St. Paul.
Frazell reported that District 197
Community Education Director Sally
Warring felt that her department was not
prepared to provide recreation services
at this point, but she was open to
further discussions if the City was
interested in contracting with them.
Commissioner Owens reported on his
discussions with the Mend -Eagan Athletic
Association. He said that the
Association would definitely be
interested in taking over some of the
youth programs currently being operated
by the City, such as T-ball. However,
Owens felt that one reason the West St.
Paul Athletic Association was able to
operate more successfully was that they
could rely heavily on the City of West
St. Paul full-time recreation director.
Owens felt that the City of Mendota
Heights is also getting to the point
where it could use its own full-time
person for scheduling and coordinating
recreation services.
After some discussion, the consensus of
the Commission was that it needs some
"professional" assistance in coming up
with a comprehensive recreation program
and strategy, similar to what was done
with Barton-Aschman for facilities. It
was suggested that the City look into
hiring a student or graduate student in
Park and Recreation at the University of
Minnesota to do such a study as a special
project. City Administrator Frazell said
that the next year or so was going to be
a "transition" in recreation for Mendota
Heights, with the new building and
facilities, etc. He suggested that
perhaps such a student could not only
come up with a recreation program, but
perhaps could be looked to as the person
to operate our recreation programs over
the next year, until more permanent
arrangements could be made. It was
agreed that Frazell would look into this
alternative, and report back to the
Commission at its November meeting.
ADJOURN There being no further business to come
before the Commission, the meeting was
adjourned at 8:28 P.M.

DATE; November 10, 1987
SUBJECT : Revised Tandem Corporation Site Plan Alternatives -
Riley Site Community Athletic Complex
The purpose of this memorandum is to identify anticipated development costs
associated with the revised Tandem Development Corporation site plan
alternatives for the Riley Community Athletic Complex. The comments relate
to concept P-1, the cul-de-sac alternative, and P-2, loop road concept.
Development costs for the two revised concepts are summarized in the
attached Tables 1 and 2. These costs are very similar to those identified
in our previous memorandum dated August 21, 1987, That memorandum reviewed
the pros and cons and construction costs of the initial "cul-de-sac" and
"loop road" concepts.
Minor programmic differences, such as the number of vehicles, exact park
features or facilities to be lighted, alter the costs for each of the
alternatives slightly. For all practical purposes, however, these cost
differences are minor and should not play a major role in determining
whether the cul-de-sac or loop road concept is appropriate. The costs may
be of issue in comparing the Riley site versus the Sibley site.
Due to the virtually comparable cost for both concepts P-1 and P-2, we
recommmend that the City of Mendota Heights concentrate on other criteria in
addition to construction cost in evaluating the alternatives. Items for
consideration should include;
A. Concept P-1 has a long cul-de-sac which results in awkward traffic
flora. This traffic may pose problems if residential access is allowed
onto the cul-de-sac road.
Be
The
cost
for this
cul-de-sac road has been
included as
a
part of the
P-1
cost
estimate
and its expense should be
shared with
the
developer.
O
Barton-Aschman Associates, Inc.
C. The loop road provided as a part of P-2 increases the exposure of park
property to the community. This exposure may be of c=muiity benefit;
however, on -street parking by park users may conflict with the
neighborhood if left unregulated.
D. Concept P-1 integrates both the neighborhood and cammnity functions
within one parcel. The neighborhood facilities are concentrated near
Mendota Heights Road whereas the community facilities are located
deeper into the site. Concept P-2 segregates neighborhood and
community facilities connecting them with a trail link.
E. Both concepts will have similar light pollution impact to the abutting
residential neighborhoods. Measures must be taken to minimize this
intrusion by using earthen berming, plant material screens,
architectural design and lighting luminaire louvers.
F. Both concepts provide adequate neighborhood and unity access for
pedestrian and .bicycle traffic.
Final costs for either concept will vary from these preliminary numbers.
The change, while not significant, will occur due to design program
modifications such as building size, number of lighted fields or trail
length.

The purpose of this memorandum is to identify anticipated develapment costs

length.

From: Kevin Fraz ,ICLt Administrator
Re: Timeline for Processing
Once again, we are faced with the end -of -the -year "crunch" tc
get development plans for the Southeast area processed.
If plans are to be approved before the end of the year,
everything has to come off like clockwork. Therefore, I am
sending this memo that outlines what has to be done, by when,
and by whom!
11/10 - Council decides whether to submit new athletic
complex proposal to District 197 - COUNCIL*
11/13 - Submission materials for Tandem/Centex residential
proposal turned into City offices - PUTNAM, BOYCE
11/16 - School Board holds public hearing on parks proposal
and approves or disapproves? - SCHOOL BOARD**

and sent to Planning Commission - DANIELSON,
DAHLGREN
