LOST LAKE - COUNTRY INN PROJECT REPORT
The City Manager reviewed the background of the proposal. He then explained
the preliminary overview of tax increment financing for the Lost Lake Country
Inn. The cost of the project is estimated at $3,773,826. This does not in-
clude the public improvements of channel dredging, docking area, parking lot
and trail system estimated at a cost of $550,000, bringing the total project
cost to $4,323,826. The developer indicated the ability to privately finance
approximately $3,400,000, which, leaves $923,826. The net proceeds of a
$505,000 bond issue would.be $380,000. Grants could add an additional
$50,000. This still leaves a total project Shortfall of $493,826.
The Staff recommendation is nOt to' designate a deVeloper at this time, but to
encourage Waterford Development Group to revise the project to make it
economically feasible, sell the property on the open market or look at other
options.
Mr. Richard Bienapfl, Waterford Development Group, was present and agreed that
the costs are too great.
MOTION made by Smith, seconded by Jessen not to designate a developer
at this time for the Lost Lake property. The vote was unanimously in
favor. Motion carried.
The CoUncil decided to take the Lost Lake property matter under advisement.

RE: Proposed storm sewer on Drummond Road to correct (serious?)
drainage problem.
First of all, some background; 10 years ago when we had just
signed a purchase agreement to buy lots 4 & 5 and part of 3,
Janet Nelson asked us if we knew that we had just bought
property that would soon cave in and all of-the bank between
our houses would fall into an old cess pool. She suggested
that we get the city to build a retaining wall to correct
this. Because we were concerned, we called our real estate
agent, Hank Trulson, and they determined that there was no
basis to this claim.
So far the property has not caved in. The only trouble we
have experienced was due to the extraordinary rainfall in
the summer of '87; one of the posts in the terracing wall
that I put in tipped over and some dirt did wash down which
was the case with many homes.
The nature of our homes sitting partially on the hill con-
tributes to water runoff which we can live with without the
overkill of putting in this storm sewer and improving a street
that is not used enough to warrant this type of assesment¥~.
I would be willing to contribute to drain tile to be laid
between the Nelson's property and mine and help dig if necessary,
but let's not let hysterics push through a storm sewer to handle
another rainfall (12 inches or better) that will probably never
happen in our lifetimes.
I feel that it would be a good idea to get a factual account of
just how much of a water problem the Nelsons and the corner house
have in a normal year. From past experience, Mrs. Nelson does
tend to exaggerate.
I would really like to attend this meeting, but I will be out of
town until after the holidays. /~
Sincerely, ~_~__ ~¢ ~

PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING REPORT
PROPOSED STORM SEWER AND STREET IMPROVEMENT
Drummond Road
Mound, Minnesota
November, 1987
GENERAL
The State of Winnesota recently sold Lots 11 and 12, Block 11, Devon which
had previously gone tax forfiet. The City has received a building permit
application and survey with a request that the driveway for the proposed house
connect to Drummond Road, which is unimproved. A copy of the survey is
attached to this report. This street was not improved when the 1980 Street
Improvement Rroject was completed in this area because the City had been
petitioned not to do so. Drummond Road was gravel at one time, but the City
has not maintained it since 1980. Most of the properties adjacent to Drummond
Road have changed ownership since 1980 and some of the residents are again
using this unimproved street.
We have reviewed the request for the driveway and discovered there is also
a drainage problem in the area. Most of the runoff from Block ll drains to a
low spot approximately 100 feet east of Amherst Lane then across Drummond Road,
down the hill and across the yards between two homes located on Island View
Drive. The Nelsons, who own Lots 6 and ?, Block 12, have tried to solve the
Problem by installing their own drain pipe from the rear yard to Island View
Drive, but it is inadequate.
STORM SEWER
The only viable solution to the drainage problem would be to install storm
sewer. There is an existing storm sewer line running from'Island View Drive to
the lake, which was abandoned when Amherst Lane was improved. This line could
be reactivated and extended to pick up the low area on Drummond Road. Attached
to this report is a plan which shows the proposed storm sewer extension.
The estimated cost of the proposed storm sewer extension as described
herein is $12,400.00. This cost is based on estimated 1988 construction, plus
25% for engineering, legal, fiscal and administrative cost. A detailed
breakdown of the cost is attached to this report.
The total oo~t of the improvements should be paid by the properties
benefitting from the improvement. It is suggested that the costs be assessed
to Lots ll through 15, Block ll and Lots 4 through 9, Block 12 on a square foot
basis. This calculates to a charge of $0.327/sq. foot. The following table
indicates the proposed assessment for each parcel:

STREET CONSTRUCTION
The other problem that exists is the use of the old gravel roadway
(Drummond Road) that is no longer maintained. We do not recommend the City
maintain this street unless it is upgraded with a paved surface, which would be
very expensive and benefit few residents. We have estimated it would cost
approximately $11..~700to improve Drummond Road to a ~6'. width for the 300 feet_
that'is now traveled. A detailed breakdown of this cost is attached to this
report. For that reason, we are r_ecommending paving on~¥. that portion from~
~A~her~t Road~ast to the. propose~...gatch basin,, the ~os_t of which be ~harged t°
the parcel applying for the building permit, Lots ll and 12, Bl.ock ll, Devon:
~h.~ cost for paving this portion of Drummond Road to a 16' width would be
~pproxima~ely $1,OOq. The remaining length of DrummOnd would need a shallow
swale constructed along the north side to direct runoff towards the new storm
sewer.
CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
We believe this project is necessary to provide access and correct a
drainage problem and can best be completed as described herein.

upon a visual inspectl .on conducted.' on November 30, 1987.
A. Exterior COnditions of Dwe~lin9
In general, the exterior walls of this dwelling are in adequate
conditionbut would require repair and modification. Examples of
necessary repair and modifications are:

December 3, 1987
Ce
Interior Conditions of Upper Level of Dwellin9
In general, the interior condition of the upper level of the
dwelling is in a severe state of.distress due to fire and water
damage. Additionally, numerous substandard construction conditions
were observed. The following conditions were observed:
The window unit air conditioner in the north exterior wall
of the east room has exposed electrical wiring coming
through the window from the exterior of the dwelling. The
electrical junction box is totally exposed within the
e
The electrical junction box serving the window air
conditioning unit at the east exterior wall of the laundry
room is totally exposed within the room.
The northwest bedroom closet light fixture and wiring does
not meet present code.
e
e
The laundry room contains an exposed standpipe and exposed
copper gas line from the attic space down the exterior
wall to the dryer. Another copper gas line is loose
within the south wall of the laundry room and extends
exposed into room.
Ail electrical conduit and copper 'gas and water lines to
the gas fired boiler and water heater run exposed within
the room containing the furnace and water heater.
Se
Electrical service is via a single electric main at the
upper west wall of the double unit dwelling. Separate
services provided from the single main with two (2)
15-Watt fused circuits to one unit and one (1) 15-Watt and
one (1) 20-Watt service to the other unit.
At closet or pantry area adjoining kitchen hot and C°ld
water copper piping runs exposed horizontally through this
a rea.
InteriOr Conditions of Lower Level of Dwellin~
In general, the interior conditions of the lower level of this
dwelling are poor due primarily to water damage with minimal fire
damage. The following conditions were observed:
2,
The lower level exterior masonry foundation walls appear
to be in good condition.
Ail ceiling sheet?ock has sustained water damage and would
require total replacement.
Exterior and interior wall paneling or other finish
materials have sustained considerable water damage and
would require total replacement.
December 3, 1987
The lower level living unit contains a separate gas fired
water heater and hot water heating system. Both the hot
water and ~as fired boiler appear to be quite new with new
electrical and gas service prov, ided.
0
Existing electrical service within the lower level unit is
substandard.
De
Other Observed Conditions
Inspection of this residence provided the following additional
~eneral comments and observations:
The roof has sustained severe fire damage and is in
jeopardy of collapse. The existing roof consists of
asphalt shingles which are in need of replacement. The
condition of this roof would require total reconstruction.
The general condition of all wood construction of floor
systems, bearing walls and non-bearing walls that have not
sustained fire damage are in acceptable condition.
3. No fire protection equipment or facilities exist.
The interior of this dwelling would require total gutting
and lreconstruction including all electrical and plumbing
systems to'meet current code requirements.~
It is our opinion that this dwelling presents a public safety hazard due to
potential collapse of the roof structure and electrical service being
maintained. This dwelling is easily accessible and is an attractive nuisance
for vandals. It is our opinion that this structure should be immediately
razed.
If you have any questions regarding our noted observations or recommendations,
please contact our office.

Block 2, Rearrangement of Block 10, Abraham Lincoln Addition to Lakeside Park,

way; and
WHEREAS, the Mound City Code requires all lots to contain frontage
on'a public right-of-way; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission reviewed the request and recommended
granting the variance due to the fact that the City of Mound previously vacated
Laurel Avenue which provided access to the parcel thereby establishing a hard-
ship under Section 23.506.1 of the Mound Zoning Code.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Mound, Minnesota, does hereby grant the variance'subject to review of the pro-
posed easements by the City Attorney, the applicant shall submit a survey of

1. Case No. 87-678 Variance for access to public street for 52XX Lynwood B]vd.
Lots 5 and Part of 4, Block 2, Rearr. of Block 10, Abraham Lincoln Additlon
to Lakeside Park; PID # 13-117-24 34 O018'
Applicant, Jeff Bakken, and Owner, Earl Bakken, were present.
The City. Planner, Mark Koegler, reviewed his report. The applicant has a
piece of property with 12,871 square feet that does not presently have access
to a public street and applicant is proposing to t~ke access from an estab-
lished easement. The hardship was created when Laurel was vacated in the
past and this property has no direct access and there does not appear to be
any reasonable means for providing access; the staff is recommending approval
with three conditions listed in his report. Item 3 should read" ..... house
shall observe a 35 foot front ...". Koegler commented the reason for the 35
feet was that if Laurel were ever rededicated as a street again, the house
would have appropriate setback..
The commission had various questions inclbding how this property would.be
assessed for any improvements~ etc.
Sohns moved and Jensen seconded the motion to accept staff recommendation
approving With the three conditions and with further condition that any-.
assessment for improvem~nts be added. The vote was unanimously in favor.
This will be on the City Council agenda of December 22, 1987.

Variance' (Access to public street)
APPLICANT: Jeff Bakken
LOCATION: Laurel Avenue, 100 feet north of Lynwood Boulevard
CASE NO: ''87-678
V~S FILE NO: 87-310-A31-ZO
EXISTING ZONING: Two Family Residential (R-3)
flDMPREF~qSIVE PLAN: Multi-Family
BACKGROUND: The applicant is seeking a variance to establish a lot in Block
2, Abraham Lincoln Addition to Lakeside Park. The lot contains 12,871 square
feet but does not abut a public street. The applicant is proposing to take
access to the property fro~ an established easement which connects to Lynwood
Boulevard. This case is virtually identical to one in November of 1986 in
which the City granted the same variance for a lot located approximately 100
feet north of this site.
RECOMMENDATION: The proposed variance meets the condition of hardship
contained in Section 23.506.1 of the Mound Zoning Code because the hardship
was created by past actions of the City. At some point in time, the City
vacated Laurel Avenue which provided direct access to the subject property.
Without Laurel, the property has no direct access and there does not appear to
be any other reasonable means for Providing such access.
~ta~ recommends aDproval oE the variance subject to the following condltlon$:
The applicant shall submit a survey of the lot signed by a
registered land surveyor.
®
Ail utility connections shall be reviewed and approved by the City
Engineer. ~
The proposed house shall observe a foot front setback from the
western line of the Laurel Avenue vacation as per the applicant's
site plan sketch. Side and rear yard setbacks shall conform to the
requirements of the R-3 zone.

Case No. 87-679 Minor subdivision of land - 29XX Westedge Boulevard
Lots 5 and 6, Block 13, The Highlands; PID # 23-117-24 31 0053
Applicant, Ronald $. Gehring, was present.
The City Planner, Mark Koegler, r~viewed that applicant is proposing to re-
subdivide tWO lots to produce two parcels fronting on County Road 44 (West-
edge Boulevard) as per shown on Exhibit 1. Both lots will have conforming
area, width and setbacks and will have a common driveway with access onto
County Road 44, He recommends approval subject to the two conditions and
he noted that the Commission has the Engineer's recommendations.
Applicant, Ronald Gehring, had nothing to add and no one else present wished
to speak on the request.
The Commiss|on discussed ~the request including the common driveway. The
Planner noted that 'the arena where the driveway becomes common is in the
public right-of-way; so we don't have much concern there. However, t'here
is room for two driveways, it is just better to have only one access onto
County Road 44. Gehring commented the County is requiring a turn around
area on these lots. It was also noted that the abuttin§ neighbors were
notified of this request.
Weiland moved and Jensen seconded a motion to accept the staff recommenda-
tion (Planner and Engineer) and approve. The vote was unanimously in favor.
This will be on the City Council agenda of December 22, 1987.

Case #87-679 MFRA file #2113
Dear Jan,
As requested we have reviewed the above proposed subdivision and have the
following comments and reoommendations.
Utilities
The Proposed sewer service for parcel B will require an-easement where
it Crosses Parcel A. This easement must be recorded at the time the
subdivision is filed at Hennepin County.
e
This long sewer service will need clean-outs as required by the
Minnesota Plumbing Code.
Verify location of existing sewer service for Parcel B. Location
shown on the survey does not match the City as-built records.
Easements
We would suggest that 5 foot wide drainage easements be required along
the north and south sides of Parcel B and the south side of Parcel A.
The area to the east of Parcel B is higher and most of the water
drains'towards County Road 44.
Permits
1. An entrance permit from Hennepin County will be required for the
common driveway as shown on the site plan.
If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact me.

PID # 25-117-24 21 Olll (5346 PIPER ROAD) (P & Z
CASE NO. 87-680 A & B)
WHEREAS, the minor subdivision of Lots 40,.41 and N. 1/2 front and rear
of 42, Whipple Shores has been submitted in the manner required for platting of
land under the City of Mound Ordinance Code, Section 330 and under Chapter 462
in the Minnesota State Statute and all proceedings have been duly conducted
thereunder; and
WHEREAS, an application to waive the subdivision requirements contained
in Section 330 of the City Code has been filed with the~City of Mound; and a lot
width variance has been requested for the R-1 Single Family Residential District;
and
WHEREAS, said request for waiver has been reviewed by the Planning Com-
mission and the City Council; and
WHEREAS, it has been determined that there are special circumstances
affecting said property such~that the strict application of the ordinance, would
deprive the applicant of.the reasonable use of his land; an'd that the waiver is
necessary for the preservation'and enjoyment' of the Substantia] property rights;
and that granting the waiver would not be detrimental to the public welfare or
injurious to the other property owners.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the'City Council of the City of
Mound, Minnesota; the request of the applicant for the waiver from the provisions
of Section 330 of the City Code, preliminary subdivision of. the following described
property and lot width variance: Lots 40 and 41; the Northerly half of Lot 42 des-
cribed as follows:
'Beginning at the Northeasterly corner of said Lot 42; thence in a
Northwesterly direction along the Norther]y line of the lot to the
shore of Lake Minnetonka; thence in a Southerly direction along the
shore of Lake Minnetonka to a point which is equally distant from the
Northwesterly and Southwesterly corners of the lot; thence in a
Southeasterly direction to a point in the Easterly line of said lot
distant 15 feet from the Northeasterly and Southeasterly corners of
the lot; thence in a Northwesterly direction along the Easterly line
of said lot to point of beginning. (Since the description does not
define clearly the Southerly line of said property, for purposes of
this survey, said line is assumed to be a straight line drawn Westerly
from the midpoint of the Easterly line of said Lot 42 through an
existing iron marker distant 232.30 feet Westerly by the end of an
existing fence.)
A. It is hereby granted to allow preliminary plat approval and vari-
ance subject to the following conditions:

Case No. 87-.680 A & B Variance and subdivision of land--5346 Piper Road
Lots 40, 41 and N.½ of 42, Whipple Shores; PID 25-117-24 21 0111
Lawrence and lone McLane were present.
The City Planner, Mark Koegler, reviewed his. report of the request to sub-
divide a 34,600 squa~re f~ot parcel into two lots; one with existing resi~
dence will have 21.,700 square feet and the other, 12,900 square feet.' The
exiSti'ng garage has. an approximately 9 X 12 appendage on the north which is
within the required setback and the setbacks on the existing house will be
conforming except for a deck on the southwest corner; owner is willing to
remove these encroachments. The variance being requested is lot width for
Parcel A; frontage measured at the buil.ding setback line is 46 feet rather
than the .required 60 feet resulting in a 14 foot variance. The staff recom-
mends approval of the minor subdivision establishing the two lots as proposed
and granting'of the 14 foot variance subject to four conditions listing in
the staff'~eport. He commented on a phone call he received regarding the
sizable garage proposed for property and it Could be used 0nly for garaging
of'residential vehicles.
The Commission had varioUs questions regarding the. sh~d'by the lake ~(only
restriction on accessory buildings is tha~ they be above flood elevation),
width of the proposed new lot and how the'width was'measured. It was dis-
cussed that lot width is show~ as 59.3 feet or .7 feet short of required 60 ft. for
Parcel'~ also discussed Was poss'ibility of purchasing some of adjacent par-
cels and whether~vari'ance wasn't financial.. The Planner stated lots are
large enough, problem is more geometry of way streets are in there; and he
felt request represents the minimum variance to make the second parcel build-
able.
Jensen moved and Michael seconded a motion to approve staff redommendations
with the 4 conditions as amende~: 1) Non-conforming portions of the garage
and principal structure on Lot A sha.ll be removed before final plat approval;
'2) All utility service connections and easement, shall be reviewed ~nd ~
approved by the City Engineer. Utility easements shall also be reviewed and
approved by the City Attorney. (Other 2 conditions were not changed)
The vote on the motion was Meyer against; all others voted in favor. (5 to l)
Meyer is opposed because he believes an attempt should be made to have
more land purchased; he wants to see lots 60 feet wide in the R-1 Zoning
District; believes that Parcel B is only about 53 feet wide on the road.
This will be on the City Council agenda Of December 22, 1987.

CASE NO: 87,680
V~S FILE NO: 87-310-A33-ZO
CURRENT ZONING: Single Family Residential (R-l)
ODMPR~IVE PLAN: Single Family Residential
BACKG~9OUND: The applicant is proposing to subdivide a 34,600 square foot
parcel into two (2) lots. Lot A, which contains the existing residence, will
have 21,700 square feet of area. Lot B, which will be a new buildable lot,
contains 12,900 square feet. In addition to the existing residence on Lot A,
a detached garage exists on the front of the parcel. 'The existing garage is
conforming except for a 7.8 x 12.1 foot appendage which projects off of the.
northeast side of the structure. The applicant has indicated that the-
appendage will be removed resulting in a conforming detached structure.
Subdivision of the parcel will result in conforming setbacks for the existing
residence except a deck located at the extreme southwest corner. Again, the
applicant is willing to remove the deck thereby removing the encroachment.
Subdivision of the property as proposed would require a lot width variance for
parcel A. The zoning ordinance requires 60 feet of width for lots in the R-1
zone. Parcel A contains 46 feet of-frontage measured at the building setback
line resulting in a 14 foot variance.
Parcel B contains adequate area and frontage to allow construction of a
conforming residential structure. The site drops off approximately 10 feet
from the frontage along Charles Road to the rear of the building setback line.
An existing utility easement bisects the front of the lot.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the minor subdivision
establishing lots A & B as proposed on the Proposed Lot Divisioa for Lawrence
McClane dated 11/23/87, waiver of the public hearing and the granting of a 14
foot lot width variance subject to the following conditions:
Non-conforming portions of the garage and principal structure on Lot
A shall be removed.
Ail utility service connections and easements shall be reviewed by
the City Engineer. Utility easements shall also be reviewed by the
City Attorney.
The applicant shall submit a final plat drawing in conformance with
Section 330:35, 330:50, 330:55, 330:60, 330:65, 330:70, 330:75,

Dear Jan:
As requested, we have reviewed the above proposed subdivision and have the
following comments and recommendations:
Utilities .'.
1. The existing sewer service for the present house crosses diagonally through
Parcel B and will probably need to be relocated. An easement across Parcel
B for this sewer service should be a requirement.
The exact location of the present water service is unknown. This service
should be located and if it crosses any portion of Parcel B, an easement
will be needed.
A new water service from the main in Charles Road will be required for
Parcel B.
Grading'
1. At the time a house is constructed on Parcel B, grading will be required to
direct runoff from the existing house and driveway towards the lake.
Access
1. The existing concrete driveway encroaches on new Parcel B and if it is to
remain in place, an easement should be required.
We would suggest that any requirements imposed as part of the subdivision
be included in the resolution and keep in the City's property file, so that any
prospective buyer would be aware of such requirements. The problem with the
Fc, rmeriy M~,Combs-Knu~sor, 4.ssgcia~es. !nc

existing sewer service should be corrected before the City releases the
resolution or the applicant could post a bond or establish an escrow account to
guarantee that the work is done. Ail necessary easements should also be
included at the time the resolution is recorded at Hennepin County.

Attention Ed Shukle, City Manager and City Council Members
Dear Mr. Shukle and Council Members:
We are requesting that you establish a public commons area lying
to the West of the Lost Lake Subdivision and that you issue dock
sites on said access area. We propose that all docks and commons
will be governed by City dock ordinances.
We are also proposing that nine (9) docks be allowed on the
channel, according to the attached drawing. The Mound Advisory
Park Commission Resolution, dated December 15, 1987, resolved the
inclusion.of the ~ine (9) Lost Lake dock locations as commons
sites on the 1988 Dock Location Map with the designation that
Lots 17 and 18 be included as abutting prOperties.
Jellico, a Minnesota Partnership, has agreed to give the City of
Mound a Utility and Public Walkway Easement (10 foot wide strip
which will consist of a 4 foot wide strip of asphalt with 3 feet
of gravel on either side for walkway and maintenance vehicle
'access to Commons and dock site area. This agreement is
contingent upon the City of Mound designated the area, abutting
the channel and lying West of the Subdivision, as a commons area
in accordance with this request that said Lots 17 and 18 in said
subdivision be considered abutting properties.

RE:

JIM FACKLER, PARKS DIRECTOR
LOST LAKE SUBDIVISION DOCKS
In 1979, the City of Mound started proceedings to acquire a
section of land on Lost Lake. This land had gone tax forfeit and
made up the Lost Lake Subdivision. This property was owned by
Nelson Developers and the City sought it for preservation of
wetlands, parks and right of way.
'A~ the same time, Nelson Developers had begun their proceedings
to reacquire the Property. ' :.
To eliminate a dispute over' who had just :right to this property,
Nelson Developers and the City of Hound agreed to split the
property. Nelson Developers would retain all lands above the
931.5 elevation and the City would have everything below the
931.5 elevation.
With this done, a portion of the City's property, from the 930.00
to the 931.5 elevation, was dry (Lake Minnetonka has a high water
elevation of 920.4). This area that is dry is currently land
locked. The Lost Lake Development blocks access from the east
and*the water level of Lost Lake blocks access from all other
points. "
A proposal was made in 1986 by Eckley-Schneider Construction
Jellico Developers (formerly Nelson Developers) that would have 9
dedicated docks only for the homes in the Lost Lake Subdivision.
This was turned down by the City Council through advisement of
the City Attorney, Curt Pearson (reference letter dated July 2,
1986). In this letter, he states the conditions that should be
met, they are: 1) The docks should not be dedicated to only
residents of Lost Lake Subdivision, rather open to all Hound
residents; 2) The Mound City Dock Ordinance should control the
dock sites; 3) Develop a p!a'n for access, location of docks and
other public usage.
Recently, Eckley-Schneider Construction and Jellico Developers
proposed that the City of Mound establish a Commons area with
regard to the land discussed above.

Re: Lost Lake Subdivision / Docks
Gentlemen:
I have been talking with Mr. Larson concerning a question
which came up relating to dockage in the Lost Lake Subdivision.
I have read the memorandum of May 12, 1986, from Jim Fackler and
Dell Rudolph to Ed Shukle. I am confused by the reference to
'Woodland Point, Dreamwood, and Wyckwood since Mr. Larson informs
me that those'commons are private commons. I call the'Council's
attention to Section 26.9301, Subds. 1 and 2, of the City Code.
The Ordinance included the definition of docks for "publicly owned
shoreland" and in Subd. 2 license is required on "public structures,
road', parks, and commons". It is obvious that the ordinance does
not apply, to.private lakeshore and private commons. Reference
is also.made'to Sec.tion 26.9303, Subd. 1, whic'h again defines
where a license is necessary'
Whatever parallel is being drawn between Dreamwood, Wychwood,
and Woodland Point and Lost Lake would in my opinion be improper.
The lands which abut the Lost Lake Subdivision on the west are
publicly owned lands, and if it is the City's desire to make that
into a public, park or public docks, they certainly can do so if
there are means for the public to obtain access to those lands.
In most cases, this will mean public expenditures for preparing
.. the access and also for providing t~rails or whatever improvements
may be necessary on the publicly owned land.. If we were to obtain
an .easement over certain properties in the Lost Lake Subdivision
so the public had a way to get to this land, the City Park
Commission and Council could decide that docks would be allowed'.
If public dockage is to be allowed, then the priorities will be
those established, in Section 26.9303, Subd. 6. Mr. Larson informs
me that three lots would in effect have first priority since
the docks abut those lots. If six additional docks were to be
provided in the area, they would be governed by priorities 2 and
3, and there would be no preference given to other lots in the
Lost Lake Subdivision unless they happened to be the first to
apply and to be awarded the docks.

I think a plan can be worked out which will permit public
docks on the lands abutting the Lost Lake Subdivision, but there
should not be any indication that the lands in the Lost Lake
Subdivision have priority, but rather that the dock ordinance
itself is controlling. It would therefore be the opinion of this
office that before any dockage is permitted in this area, a total
plan be worked out for access, location of docks, and other public
usage of the property.
I hope this answers the Council's questions, and we will
expand upon this if you desire.

Dear Ed:
Re:
City of Mound v. Hagedorn
You will recall that a resident residing on the Wiota
Commons cut down certain trees and brush between his lot and
the lake. This was done contrary to the direction of the Park
Department, and this office was directed to commence suit
agaimst Mr. Hagedorn.
Jim Larson handled the matter and 'suit was commenced and
is now in the District Court awaiting trial. We had an ini.tial
appraisal which indicated thousands of dollars Of damage, but
after the' lawsuit Was st'art.ed we have had it appraised by Otten
Brothers who estimated the 'damages at $1,799.30. I am enclosing
a copy of Jim Larson's memorandum, and I think that tells the
rest of the story. I believe you and Mr. Larson have discussed
this and have agreed you should recommend to the City Council
that the Mayor and Manager be authorized to settle the matter
upon receipt of $1,000 and to grant a Stipulation of Dismissal
of the lawsuit and a release to Mr. Hagedorn. I want to make
two points. I think that this settlement will strengthen the
City's claim to Wiota Commons even though it does not establish
title. The only way we can in effect establish the City's title
would be to commence a lawsuit and give notice to all the people
in Wiota Commons that the City is claiming the property by
adver'se possession. We do not recommend this course of action
at this time but suggest that the City continue to control this.
Commons, put up markers that it is being maintained and managed
by the public, and in effect give all of the signs of ownership.
We recommend this matter be on the Council agenda for December
22 and that the motion be that the Mayor, Manager, and City
Attorney be directed to settle this lawsuit for $1,000.
Very truly yours,,.~
Cur~s A. Pearson

Enclosure
cc: Mayor and Council
TO: C.A. Pearson
FROM:
J. D. Larson
SUBJECT: Mound v. Hagedorn
DATE:
December 16, 1987
We've received an offer of settlement from Mr. Hagedorn's
attorney of $1,000.
The damage appraisal done by Otten Brothers showed damages
of $1,799.30.
As you know, Hagedorn has taken the position that the City
was not damaged because the City does not own the Wioata Commons.
We must establish title by adverse possession in order to
prevail in this lawsuit, because the Wiota Commons were dedicated
to the private use of the property owners in the Dreamwood
Subdivision. We feel we should prevail because the Commons has
been maintained by the City for years. Len Kopp advises that the
City maintained Wiota Commons for the period he was manager
(since 1960). City ordinances have been on the books requiring
residents to get permits for trimming trees, changing a slope, or
placing a structure or dock on the commons. Staff ~was able to
find a few permits'dating back as far ~as 1960.~
McQuillan on Municipal Corporations, §28.15, notes that a
municipality, like an individual, may acquire title by adverse
possession. The case of B.W. & Leo Harris Co. v. City of
Hastings, 59 NW2d 813 (Minn. 1953) talks about the kind of
actions a city must establish in order to prove title by adverse
possession. Exercising control over the land by requiring
permits for dockage, maintenance and construction is the type of
control which would support a claim of adverse possession under
the Hastings case.
Although I think we have a winable case, we would gain
nothing by going to trial. We already claim title to Wiota
Commons and that would not change as a result of a settlement.,
This case would not establish title in the city. The cost of a
two-day trial on the issues of adverse possgssion and damages
would exceed the amount to be gained (the difference between
$1,000 and $1,799.30). The statute involved in our claim does
permit treble damages, but I do not believe the court would order
treble damages where there is a bona fide dispute over title to
the trees.
In summary, I think the City should accept this negotiated
settlement and I so recommend.

Re: Legal Services
Dear Ed:
I received your letter of December 7 and Curt's of November 11.
Curt seems to be under the impression the Council wants to review
his civil representation while it does the prosecution. That is
not the case.
The reason I brought the matter before the Council on October 31
was because I am ~ware of the high cost of both civil and criminal
representation for Mound, ~urther I am aware that the present market
place fOr. !.egal services is.very cost competitive. There is no -
reason Mound cannot take advantage of this.
The Council unanimously agreed to review the prosecution. To do
that, at the close of the October 31 meeting, the Council un-
animously agreed by consensus to have you begin the advertising and
solicitation process. Enclosed is a list of legal publications
read by the bar.
If you have not begun the advertising please do so at once. If
you have trouble with that call me, in which case I will call a
special me~ting of the Council for Wednesday, December 16 at .

FROM:
MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
ED SHUKLE, CITY MANAGER
RE: LEGAL SERVICES.
At the October 31st goal setting session held at the Lafayette
Club, you indicated that you would like to review our legal
services contract with Wurst, Pearson, L'arson, Underwood and
Mertz.
I did look for a' written contract for civil and'prosecution
services.· The civil contract dates back about 20 years with Curt
Pearson. We did not have a prosecution contract with Curt's
firm, specifically Jim Larson. Jim. became the prosecuting
attorney in the early 1980's.
The prosecution began with. ~he Grathwol FlYm in EXcelsior, who
represented a number of~lake communities. Following their
tenure, Mr. Gary Phlegar (now with Koenig, Robin, Johnson and
Wood, of Wayzata) represented a number of cities including
Mound. Mr. Phlegar represented the City for a short time and
then a situation arose where a member of the City Council became
unhappy with Mr. Phlegar and in effect forced a change. The City
of Mound did not solicit experienced persons and the party who
was appointed had no experience in the court as a prosecutor and
this caused great concern to the Police Department and the
public. The morale of the department sank because the department
had a lack of confidence in the person providing the service.
Subsequent to that situation, there was another change and Desyi
~eterson, who was als~ prosecuting attorney for M~nnetrista and
Orono, represented Mound. The process worked well until
resigned to become the Minnetonka City Attorney. At that time
the Mound City Manager started interviewing several firms. The
council had asked Curt's firm if they would do the work on
temporary basis, which they agreed to do. Shortly thereafter,
they were appointed to do the work permanently.
Attached is a letter'dated November 11, 1987, from Curt Pearson
regarding a recent request of review for legal services. I think
Curt points' out a number of issues.which emphasize the fact we
have a very experienced law firm handling our civil and
prosecution matters. I do not believe that any changes are
necessary.
Legal Services Memo to Mayor and Council
December 7, 1987
Pa~e 2
Even if a change was being considered, I would not recommend an
open bid process to hire new city attorneys. As Curt states in
his November 11th letter, if the City of Mound considers changing
attorneys, he would recommend that we solicit firms who are
experienced in the field. I would definitely agree with his
recommendation. The old adage "you get what you pay for", holds
true with regard to this issue.
I hope this gives you some indication of the current legal
services issue. If you have any questions, please contact me. I
am sure if you wanted to call Curt, and discuss the matter with
him, he would be happy to talk with you about it.

Re: Legal Services
Dear Ed:
This will confirm that over the last couple of weeks we have had
numerous calls and correspondence with your office concerning legal
services. We have supplied you with volumes of materials on the services,
time, what we do, and the other details which involve our day to day
activities for the City of Mound. It is my understanding that you are
satisfied with the legal services being provided by this office and you have
nOt indicated any problems with either the quality of the services or with
the charges which havebeen made. It is my further understanding this is
coming up because of a suggestion raised by a Councilmember that the City in
effect call for competitive bids on this professional service.
I believe I have expressed to you my own sensitivity to this
suggestion. After representing someone for 20 years and believing that
you have a good and strong professional relationship, one naturally becomes
a bit defensive when this type of question is raised. I do not know that the
City is now or has ever in the past taken bids on professional services for
engineering, planning, finances, legal, or any other professional
services.
This letter is not meant to be confrontational or hostile in any
way. This office has very much enjoyed working with you and your staff in
representing the City, and I believe our relationship is one which provides
that each of us can be candid and open with the others. This is importaht if
we are to have confidence in how we handle the matters for the people of
Mound. If there are concernSby you, the City Council as a whole, or even an
individual Councilmember, we would appreciate having that concern
expressed to us so that we could respond directly. In our conversations,
you have not indicated any particular matter to which we can respond.
I would like to stress the following points:
WURST, PEARSON, LARSON~ UNDERWOOD & MERTZ
By law, the City Manager hires and fires, and with the City
Attorney he does this with the approval of the City
Council. This is in the law because the City Attorney is
probably in a more sensitive position than any other staff
person. You have not indicated that there is any problem
with our merit or fitness, and as far as I can detern~ine,
you are not dissatisfied with our services.
If you and the City Council for some reason determine that
you wish to change attorneys, I strongly recommend that
you solicit people who are experienced in the field. The
"deep pockets" of a municipality are such that cheap legal
services may turn out to be extremely expensive to the
taxpayers of the City of Mound or any other City.
We are proud to represent the City of Mound. Our
relationship is long and has never been in jeopardy to the
best of our knowledge. The last year or two has brought a
series of small questions to you and me concerning those
services, and I hope that as your tenure g~ows longer, that
will'not be an issue in the future,~BUT if yOu ever have any
question about, our services or any constructive criticism
(or other type of criticism) please contact me immediately
and I will try to be responsive to your concerns.
We very much appreciate your candidness in discussing this
sensitive issue with Mr. Larson and me, and we hope we have provided you with
a satisfactory response.
Sincerely,
CAP:ih

Recycling Coordinator
Renewal of Recycling Contract
Our contract with Supercycle is up as of the end of December. John Luma
from Supercycle has proposed a bid of $1,430.00 per month for next year.
The way they come up with this figure is based on .40¢ per household, we
have over 3,100 households, this bid also includes servicing 4 apartment
buildings twice a month. The way they service apartment buildings is by
placing 55 gallon drums by the dumpsters. This has been a big success
in St. Louis Park. When the barrels are available all the time it makes it
very convenient for people to recycle, which in turns raises our tonnage
figure and this is what you're aiming for. For the year of 1988 Hennepin
County is requiring us to recycle 342 tons of material. Hennepin County
also reimburses us 60% of any costs incurred in our recycling program.
Hennepin County would reimburse us 70% of our costs if we recycle more
than 10% of our waste stream which would be about 380 tons.
For the year of 1988 $17,880 was budget Hennepin County would reimburse
us $10,728, so the City's share would be about $7,152.

BOARD OF APPEALS
1. Case No. 87-678 Variance for access to public street for 52XX Lynwood Blvd.
Lots 5 and Part of 4, Block 2, Rearr. of Block 10, Abraham Lincoln Addition
to Lakeside Park; PID # 13-~17-24 34 OO18
Applicant, Jeff Bakken, and Owner, Earl Bakken, were present.
The Ci. ty Planner, Ma.rk Koegler, reviewed h~is report. The apPlicant ~as a
piece of property with 12,871 square feet that does not presently have access
to a public street and applicant is proposing to take access from an estab-
lished easement. The hardship was created when Laurel was vacated in the
past and this property has no direct access and there does not appear to be
any reasonable means for providing access; the staff is recommending approval
with three conditions listed in his report. Item 3 should read" ..... house
shall observe a 35 foot front ...". Koegler commented the reason for the 35
feet was that if Laurel were ever rededicated as a street again, the house
would have appropriate setback.
The Commission had various questions including how this property would be
assessed for any improvements, etc.
Sohns moved and Jensen seconded the motion to accept staff recommendation
approving with the three conditions and with further condition that any-
assessment for improv~nents be added. The vote was unanimously in favor.
This will be on the City Council agenda of December 22, 1987.

edge Boulevard) as per shown on Exhibit 1. Both lots will have conforming
area, width and setbacks and will have a common driveway with access onto
County Road 44, He recommends approval subject to the two conditions and

ISSUE DATE: December 4, 1987
In the Matter of the Application
of Northern States Power Company
for Authority to Increase its Rates
for Electric Service in Minnesota
Docket No. E-002/GR-87-670
NOTICE AND ORDER FOR HEARING
PROCEDURAL HISTORY
On November 2, 1987, Northern States Power Company (NSP or the Company) filed
a petition with the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission (the Commission) for
an increase in electric rates pursuant to Minn. Stat. 5 216B.16 (1986). On
December 4, 1987, the Commission issued its Order Accepting Filing and
Suspending Rates in this matter.
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
I. Jurisdiction
The Commission has jurisdiction to proceed with this investigation under Minn.
Stat. S 216B.16 (1986); Subdivision 2 authorizes the Commission to determine'
all questions of the reasonableness of the proposed rates raised before it.
If the Commission cannot resolve all significant issues to its satisfaction,
the statute directs the Commission to refer the matter to the Office of
Administrative Hearings to conduct a public hearing as a contested case
pursuant to Chapter 14. Pursuant to Minn. Stat. Section 216B.16, subd. la, a
contested case hearing may become unnecessary if the petitioner and all
intervening parties agree to a stipulated settlement of the case and the
settlement is supported by substantial evidence. In that event, the
stipulated settlement shall be referred to the Commission who shall accept or
reject the settlement in its entirety. If the Commission rejects the
settlement, a contested case hearing will be held.
The Commission finds that it cannot resolve all questions of reasonableness of
the proposed rates to its satisfaction and that a contested case hearing is
necessary to determine whether the proposed rates are just and reasonable or
would result in excessive and unreasonable earnings for the Company. Pursuant
to the authority in Minn. Stat. ~ 216B.16 (1986), the Commission will order
that a contested case hearing be scheduled in this matter. The hearing shall
be conducted in such a manner that the Commission may issue its initial
decision within ten months of November 2, 1987, or, if a stipulated settlement
is filed with the Commission, within twelve months of November 2, 1987.
Is the Cap{icl structure and the return on equity that the Company
has proposed reasonable?
Further, NSP shall offer a witness durln§ the ev[dentiary hearings who has
detailed knowledge of the test year b{llin§ units and the foreaastin§ method
used to obtain them. This information is needed by the Commission to ~ud~e
the reasonableness of the Company's proposed level of revenues and expenses.
IV. Procedural Outline
The public and evidentiary hearin§s on the Company's petition will be
conducted by an Administrative Law Judge appointed by the Chief Administrative
Law Jud§e of the State of Minnesota and will be held in compliance with the
applicable laws relatinE to the Public Utilities Commission, the contested
case provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (Minn. Stat. Ch. la), the
Rules of the Office of Administrative Hearings, Minnesota Rules, parts
1~00.5100 - 1~00.8a00, and the Rules of Practice of the Public Utilities
Commission, Minnesota Rules, parts 7830.0100 - ?830.4400, to the extent that
they have not been superseded by the Rules of the Office of Administrative
Hearings.
These statutes and rules may be purchased from the Documents Section of the
Depprtment of Administration, 117 University Avenue, St. Paul, Minnesota
55155, 612/297-3000.

other evidence pursuant to Minnesota Rules, part 1~00.7000.
Interested persons or groups may petition to intervene as formal parties in
the case to present expert testimony and submit briefs. The Administrative
Law Judge will hold evidentiary hearings for the presentation of expert
testimony by the Company, the Minnesota Department of Public Service, and
other a§encies, persons, or groups who have formally intervened. Parties are
advised to brin§ to the hearin§ all documents, records and witnesses they need
to support their position. Durin& the evidentiary hearings, all parties may
present evidence and argument re~ardin§ the issues and may cross-examine
witnesses.
Any person intending to intervene as a formal party to these hearings must
submit a Petition for Leave to Intervene to the Administrative Law Jud§e and
serve the petition on all existin~ parties. The petition must state how the
Petitioner's legal rights, duties or privileges may be determined or affected
by the Commission's decision in the matter and shall set forth the ~rounds and
purposes for which intervention is sought, and shall indicate the Petitioner's
statutory ri§hr to intervene, if one exists. All parties have the ri§hr to be
represented by an attorney, by themselves, or by a person of their choice if
not otherwise prohibited as the unauthorized practice of Law.
If persons have ~ood reason for requesting a delay of any hearing, the request
must be made in writin~ to the Administrative Law Jud§e at least five days
prior %0 the hearin§. A copy of the request must be zerued on the Commizsion
and all parties.
Failure by the petitioner to appear at the hearin~ may result in the rate
chan~e being denied. If no interested person appears and contests the
proposed rate increase at the hearin&, the rates may be approved as proposed.
Followin& the contested case hearin&, the Commission may approve all or any
part of the proposed rate increase but may not approve an overall increase
~reater than that proposed by the Company. However, the Commission may adjust
rates for classes of customers to levels greater than those proposed by the
Company and make other rate adjustments.
Parties are advised that if data classified as not public are admitted into
evidence, they may become public data unless a party objects and asks for
relief under Minn. Stat. 5 14.60, subd. 2 (1984).
Any question concernin§ informal disposition of this matter pursuant to
Minnesota Rules, part 1400.5900 or discovery of information pursuant to
