The city Attorney reported that Judge Fitzgerald has ruled that the
city's motion for Summary Judgement was denied. The City also
asked to consolidate the condemnation and the other litigation
which was also denied. This means the City will have to go forward
with two separate lawsuits. The city Attorney also explained that
since the Summary Judgement was denied he and probably Mr.
Underwood will be deposed. There will be another lawyer involved
to try the case.

NZNUTES - COMMITTEE OF THE ~HOLE - l~Y 18, 1993
The meeting was called to order at 7:30 PM. Members present:
Mayor Skip Johnson, Councilmembers Andrea Ahrens, Phyllis Jessen,
Liz Jensen, Ken Smith. Also present: Arlo VandeVegte, West
Hennepin Human Services Planning Board and Bruce Larson, Assistant
Director, West Hennepin Human Services Planning Board; Ed Shukle
City Manager. ,
Arlo VandeVegte and Bruce Larson from the West Hennepin Human
Services Planning Board were present to address the Council on
possible interest in joining the West Hennepin Human Services
Planning Board. Both VandeVegte and Larson indicated that the City
of Mound had been a member in the past and never officially
withdrew from the joint powers agreement. However, the City has
not participated for several years. Both individuals requested
that the City of Mound take another look at the planning board and
consider becoming involved and active in it. The City Council
thanked VandeVegte and Larson for attending and indicated that this
matter would be taken under advisement and reviewed at a future
City Council meeting. The City Council then discussed the matter
and agreed to have it on the next regular meeting agenda.
Goal setting was discussed. Councilmember Jensen indicated that
she identified three items that should be looked at: 1) Mission
Statement, 2) Approach to setting goals and 3) Establishing
goals. The mission statement was briefly reviewed and after some
discussion it was agreed that Skip and Phyllis would review the
mission statement further to try to clean up some of the
punctuation and wording. Jensen suggested that each councilmember
list 5 things that they would like to see accomplished in the City
of Mound to make Mound better. Liz will take these items listed
and put them together for future discussion.
City Manager Ed Shukle presented some information pertaining to a
possible water and sewer general obligation revenue bond issue,
dealing with capital improvement projects in the water and sewer
departments. They include a new meter reading system, repainting
of the Evergreen Road water tank, watermain improvements and gate
valve improvments and upgrading of lift stations. The total
estimated amount is $1,300,000. The proposal is to issue
$1,300,000 sometime this summer with the water meter reading system
to be out for bids within the next several months and the remaining
items to be done in 1994. Part of the proposal deals with rate
increases in both the water and sewer funds. The City Manager and
Finance Director have recommended that 5% increases for each of the
next four years be implemented in order to provide the resources to
pay the principal and interest on the bonds and create a more
stable flow of resources to the utility funds. The City Council
discussed this information and by consensus directed the City
Manager to proceed in preparing the necessary documents to go
forward with the bond issue for the above items including the
proposal to have water and sewer rate increases go into effect by
5% increase for each of the next four years.
/(a3q
A discussion was then held on outstanding general improvement bond
debt. The City Manager presented some information indicating that
of 6 outstanding bond issues that have been paid for through
special assessments, there are two issues that ought to be called
in and the bonds paid off and the cash be placed in Fund #30 which
is the capital improvement fund. The rationale behind this
recommendation is the fact that the bonds are callable (paid off
early) and in one of the issues cases, the interest rates are
higher than what the normal bond market is presently. Thus, this
action would save the City money and create a cash balance that
could be used for capital improvements that the city Council deems
appropriate. The consensus was to go forward and call in the GO
improvement bond of 1979 and the GO improvement bond of 1982. The
City Manager and Finance Director will prepare the necessary
documents and will be bringing this information to an upcoming
regular City Council meeting for action.
Councilmember Ken Smith updated the Council on the Commons Task
Force. He indicated that the video tape was nearly complete and
would be available within the next few months. The video tape will
show the various commons areas from the lake that will be
catalogued and/or indexed so that areas can be identified
immediately for review by the Parks and Open Space Commission, City
Council or any other group that wishes to view the commons areas.
The Teal Pointe Environmental Assessment Worksheet was presented.
city Manager Ed Shukle indicated that the EAW will be reviewed by
the Parks and Open Space Commission and the Planning Commission at
the Planning Commission meeting of May 24, 1993. The City Council
will subsequently look at the EAW formally at its regular meeting
of June 8, 1993. Questions were raised with regard to timing and
when the city Council actually has to approve the EAW. The city
Manager indicated that he would talk to the City Planner and get
back to the Council with a response.
city Manager Ed Shukle and Mayor Skip Johnson updated the Council
on the Bruce Miller Duck Stamp Event scheduled for Thursday, July
1st in Mound.
Other business discussed was the school district survey, LMCD,
rental housing report and mid-block crosswalks.
Upon motion by Smith, seconded by Jensen and carried unanimously,
the meeting was adjourned at 10:20 PM.

REPL~T OF HARRISON SHORES, PID #13-117-24 21 0069
P&Z CASE NUMBER 93-012
WHERE~S, The applicants, Gary and Kathleen Spaulding, have
applied for a 7.5' front yard setback variance to Baywood Shores
Drive and to recognize an existing nonconforming front yard setback
to Baywood Lane resulting in a .99' variance to allow construction
of an addition, and;
WHERE~S, The addition includes an entryway which would result
in a more condusively designed house for the neighborhood as other
houses in the area also have entryways, and;
WHEREAS, When the house was constructed it was poorly placed
on the corner lot, and;
WHEREAS, The subject property is located within the R-1 single
Family Residential Zoning District which according to City Code
requires a lot area of 10,000 square feet, a 30 foot front yard
setback, 10 foot side yard setbacks, and a 15 foot rear yard
setback, and;
WHEREAS, All other setbacks, lot area and lot coverage are
conforming, and;
WHERE~S, The Planning Commission has reviewed the request and
recommended approval with 5 in favor and 3 opposed, with the
following Finding of Facts:
1. Practical difficulty exists due to the fact that the
house was poorly placed on the corner lot when
constructed.
2. The proposed entryway addition will create a more
condusively designed house for the neighborhood.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the city Council of the
city of Mound, Minnesota, as follows:
1. The city does hereby approve a 7.5' front yard setback
variance to Baywood Shores Drive and recognizes an existing
nonconforming front yard setback to Baywood Lane resulting in

DriVe, Lot 4m Block 5m Replat of Harrison Shores, PIP ~13-117-24 21
0069. VARIANCE~
Building official, Jon Sutherland, reviewed the status of this
request. On April 12, 1993 the Planning Commission tabled this
request until further information could be provided. Issues of
hardship, reasonable use, and practical difficulty were discussed.
It was noted the house was improperly set on the corner lot by not
providing enough setback for an entryway. There was the impression
that the entryway would create a more condusively designed house
for the neighborhood and that other houses in the area also have
entryways.
The revised survey shows a setback of 22.5' from the proposed
addition to Baywood Shores Drive, the required setback is 30'. The
existing nonconforming setback to the south property line of 29.01'
also needs to be recognized. All other setbacks and impervious
surface coverage are conforming.
taff recommended that if lack o~ hard, ship or practical difficulty
xists the request should be denled.F'If it is found that practical
ifficulty exists due to the fact ~he house was poorly placeg, on
he corner lot and ,that it is reasonable to allow the furtner
ncroachment of 7.5 into the fron~ yard, and further that the
ddit%on will create a more conduslvely designed house for the
°rhood, a favorable recommendation could be made.
MOTION made by Hanus, seconded by Mueller to recommend
approval of the 7.5' front yard setback variance to the
south front property line (Baywood Shores Drive) to allow
construction of an entryway addition, and to recognize
the existing nonconforming front yard setback of 29.01'
to the west front property line (Baywood Lane), includlng
the following finding of facts:
1. Practical difficulty exists due to the fact that the
house was poorly placed on the corner lot.
2. The proposed entryway addition will create a more
condusively designed house for the neighborhood.
Michael questioned what the difference is from the original request
other than the proposed variance is only a half a foot less.
Jensen also commented that she finds it difficult to believe that
because the house was improperly placed creates a practical
difficulty and that the house needs the additional space as it is
already a fairly large house, it is hard to see the hardship.
MOTION carried 5 to 3. Those in favor were: Meyer,
Hanus, Mueller, Foss and Weiland. Those opposed were=
Johnson, Jensen and Michael.
This case will be reviewed by the City Council on May 25, 1993.

R-1 Single Family Residential
This case was tabled by the Planning Commission at the April 12, 1993
meeting until further information could be provided. The applicants
also stated they would further investigate their plan. The Planning
commission discussed the issues of hardship, reasonable use, and
practical difficulty as they apply to this case. It was noted the house
was improperly set on the corner lot by not providing enough setback for
an entryway. There was the impression through further discussion that
the entryway would create a more condusively designed house for the
neighborhood and that other houses in the area also have entryways.
The revised survey scales 22.5' from the proposed addition to Baywood
Shores Drive, the required setback is 30'. This results in a variance
request of 7.5' and recognition of the existing nonconforming setback of
29.01, to the south front property line. All other setbacks and
impervious surface coverage are conforming.
RECOMMENDATION
If the Planning Commission finds a lack of hardship or practical
difficulty exists in this case, a recommendation of denial should be
made. If it could be found that practical difficulty exists due to the
fact that the house is poorly laid out on the corner lot and that it is
reasonable use to allow the further encroachment of 7.5' into the front
yard, and further that the addition will create a more condusively
designed house for the neighborhood a favorable recommendation could be
made.
This case will be heard by the City Council May 25, 1993.

CASE ~93-012: GARY & KATHr. EEN SPAULDING, 5335 B;%yWOOD SHORES
DRIVE~ LOT 4, BLOCK 5, REPLAT OF HARRISON SHORES, PID 113-117-24 2~
0069. VARIANCE.
Building Official, Jon Sutherland, reviewed the applicant's request
for a front yard setback variance to Baywood Shores Drive of 8 feet
to the required 30 foot in order to construct an addition onto the
home. The addition will allow for an entryway and expansion of the
bedrooms.
Staff noted that an updated survey was received today which shows
the "existing" structures versus the "proposed". This survey does
not show the proposed addition. The survey indicates that the
existing front yard setback from Baywood Lane is 29.06 versus the
required 30 foot setback. The surveyor also calculated existing
impervious surface at 21 percent.
Staff recommended that if the Planning Commission finds a lack of
hardship in this case, a recommendation of denial should be made.
If it could be found that other dwellings in the same area have
equal or less setbacks and hardcover percentages as this site, a
recommendation of approval based on the rights commonly enjoyed by
other properties in the same district could be made. In this case
the applicant would have to compile adequate information in order
for staff and the Planning Commission to come to that conclusion.
The Planning Commission discussed the figure presented for variance
and there was some confusion where the setback was being measured
from. There is an existing cantilever that will be removed. The
existing setback to the foundation wall is 31.12. The furthest
most projected wall line of the proposed addition will measure 8
feet from the existing foundation wall, therefore, it was assumed
that the proposed setback will be 23.12, resulting in a 6.88 foot
variance.
The questions of hardship was posed. Weiland commented that he may
not be in favor of the variance, however, he does not feel the
addition would negatively impact the neighborhood. Does reasonable
use exist? Could the fact that this is a corner lot present some
type of hardship? Setting a precedence for the neighborhood was
discussed. The applicant, Kathleen Spaulding, noted that all the
other houses in the neighborhood have nice entryways, and one
neighbor has a covered porch which she thinks projects into the
setback.
Voss suggested tabling the request to allow the applicant time to
bring back adequate information. Jensen questioned, why invest
more time if nobody is in favor of the request. Meyer again
questioned hardship and noted that there is room on the lot to
expand to the north and east. The applicant commented that due to
the existing floor plan it is not economically feasible to add to
the north and east, and their proposal is the most economical way
to expand. Michael informed the applicant that financial reasons
cannot be considered a hardship.
The Commission discussed the fact that the addition will create a
more condusively designed house for the neighborhood and it is
possible that the house was improperly sited for the lot.
The applicant's suggested that they come back with exact numbers
and further investigate their plan.
MOTION made by Voss, seconded by Clapsaddle to table the
request until further information can be provided.
Motion carried unanimously.

The applicant,s are seeking a variance of 8 feet to the required 30
foot front yard setback in the R-1 zone in order to construct an
entryway and second story expansion onto the home. The request
appears to be slightly over the 30 percent maximum hardcover
allowed by ordinance, but this is difficult to assess as the survey
must be updated in order to accurately depict all the actual
conditions on site.
The proposed addition does enhance the exterior appearance and
functional aspect of the home, however, it is difficult to find
hardship in this case. From a practical standpoint, some other
homes in the area appear to be setback slightly less than 30 feet.

SUBDIVISION.
Building Official, Jon Sutherland, reviewed the applicant's request
for a Minor Subdivision to create two lots, both of which will be
conforming to the minimum lot area requirement of 6,000 square
feet. Parcel A is proposed with 8,451 square feet and Parcel B
with 6,607 square feet. Parcel A has an existing nonconforming
dwelling due to the front yard setback of 11.5' resulting in an
8.5' setback variance which was recognized by Resolutions $91-43
and $92-110.
Staff recommended approval of the request for minor subdivision
subject to the following conditions:
1. Sanitary sewer and water services either be installed before
the subdivision is recorded or some type of guarantee be
provided, such as cash escrow or performance bond.
2. Provide entrance and utility installation permits from
Hennepin County.
3. Final Grading and Erosion Control Plan to be approved by the
City Engineer at time of building permit application.
4. A park dedication fee be paid as required by City Code of $500
per lot being created.
Weiland referred to the applicant's variance application where he
stated, "Road was moved many years ago when Mound was first being
populated, we found out by old residents". Weiland and Mueller
both believed this statement to be untrue.
Mueller questioned the amount of fill that will be brought in to
construct the house on Parcel B and questioned if the Shoreland
Management Ordinance (SMO) has a limit on the amount of fill. He
also noted that the survey does not reflect proposed elevations.
The Building Official commented that the SMO was reviewed and
applied to the application. He suggested that a condition could be
added requiring that all grading and filling must comply with the
SMO. The Building official added that the building permit includes
grading and filling.
Meyer questioned where the future owner of Parcel B will store his
boat and other items, noting that with 10 foot side yard setbacks
on each side and considering the elevations it would be difficult
to store anything at the side of the house, there is not much open
space except in the front yard.
Hanus referred to condition $4 relating to park dedication and
commented that he does not agree with how the ordinance is being
interpreted, and feels only one unit should be charged. Weiland
Hay 10, 1993
recalled that when the ordinance was originally written it was
intended to charge a fee for each new lot only. It was determined
to add this issue as a discussion item at the end of the agenda.
Concern was expressed that the hardcover is maxed out and does not
allow for future expansion, such as for a deck.

comments and recommendations:

a minor
following
The survey does not show any City utilities, i.e., sanitary
sewer or watermain. From the City records, it does not appear
there is either an existing sewer or water service available
for proposed Parcel B. These would need to be installed at
the Owner's expense.
Bartlett Boulevard is a Hennepin County Road, for which an
entrance,permit will be required for the proposed driveway.
A utility installation permit is also needed before any
excavating is done to install the necessary sewer and water
services.

In conclusion, we are recommending the following conditions be made

2. Provide entrance and utility installation permits from

Dock Bite $41319. LAND Ar. TERATiON TO TRIM VEGETATION.
Jim Fackler, Parks Director, reviewed the apPlicant,s request for a
permit to trim trees and also cut sumac to enhance the view of the lake
from their house, and to reconstruct the existing dilapidated stairway
to their dock.
The City,s new Shoreland Management Ordinance allows limited clearing
and trimming of vegetation on steep slopes to provide a view to the
water from the principal dwelling site provided that screening of
structures is not substantially reduced.
The trees can be trimmed in a manner appropriate for removal of branches
to benefit the trees. Health tre
systems must remain intact ~ ~-~-- _ es a~d plants with healthy root
must conduce ...... :~_ _ ~v ~ven~ erosion of the steep slope. Staff
licensed tree
trimmer hired by the applicant. All trimming must be removed from the
...... ' ~u~ evaluation with the applicant or a
site and cost of removal and trimming is the applicant,s responsibility.
Dead and dangerous material can be removed at the direction of staff and
one hazardous branch was recently allowed to be removed.
The existing stairway is in poor condition and the permit is expired.
~scellaneous electrical work is evident on Devon Commons and no permit
on record for this work. A portion of a fence is on Devon Commons,
shared with 4617 Island View Drive, and there is no permit. The owner
states the fence belongs to the neighbor. There is also water supply
piping from the house to wash boats, etc., and again, no permit.
Staff recommends approval of a Land Altergtlon Perml~ for the trimming
of vegetation and approval of a Constructlo2 on Public Lands Permit to
replace the stairway, subject to the following conditions:
1. Only one occasion permitted for trimming and minor clearing of
trees and sumac, as directed by staff.
2. The existing stairway must be replaced to code in the same
location. A plan must be submitted and approved by staff prior to
any construction.
3. All electrical work on public property is required by State law to
be installed by a qualified licensed electrical contractor and
inspected and approved by the State Electrical Inspector. The City
Council must first approve of the proposed installation. A
site plan must be submitted showing in detail the location scaled
of all
electrical services on Devon Commons. All power supply to the
commons from 4625 Island View Drive must be disconnected by a
qualified electrical contractor until such work is approved by the
City Council. The applicant must verify disconnection with City
staff.
4. The fence must be removed.

The water supply piping may remain upon the condition that the
installation be approved by the City Plumbing Inspector. The
applicant must verify with City staff. The applicant shall be
responsible for the plumbing permit and any inspection fees that
result.
If compliance to these conditions has not been achieved within one
(1) year of date of approval of the permit, the applicant's dock
license will not be issued until compliance has been achieved.
The applicant, Mary Faith, addressed the Commission and stated that they
just purchased the house in January. The hillside on the Commons is
full of debris. She stated they would prefer to disconnect the
electrical and water services. She also asked if they can disconnect
the services rather than hire a licensed contractor. The Parks Director
noted that work being done on public property requires a licensed
contractor; staff will verify this with the Building official. She also
stated that they would prefer to repair the stairway versus totally
replace it. Ahrens noted that the applicant did not note on the
application form that they want to replace the stairway. The Parks
Director noted that after a site visit and discussions between the
applicant and Building Official it was the intent of the applicant to
fix the stairway. Ahrens requested the applicant amend their
application form to reflect their request to repair the stairway.
MOTION made by Skoglund, seconded by Byrnes to recommend
approval of the Special Permit as recommended by staff.
Motion carried unanimously.
This request will be heard by the City Council on May 25, 1993.

Vegetation
ADDlicant's Request
The applicant is at this time requesting a permit to trim trees and
also cut sumac to enhance the view of the lake from their house,
and to reconstruct the existing dilapidated stairway to their dock.
Comments and Background
The City's new Shoreland Management Ordinance (excerpts are
attached), allows limited clearing and trimming of vegetation on
steep slopes to provide a view to the water from the principal
dwelling site provided that screening of structures is not
substantially reduced.
The trees can be trimmed in a manner appropriate for removal of
branches to benefit the trees. Healthy trees and plants with
healthy root systems must remain intact to prevent erosion of the
steep slope. Staff must conduct an on-site evaluation with the
applicant or a licensed tree trimmer hired by the applicant. All
trimming must be removed from the site and cost of removal and
trimming is the applicant,s responsibility. Dead and dangerous
material can be removed at the direction of staff.

RESOLUTION TO ~PPROVE ~ CONSTRUCTION ON PUBLIC Li~DS PEI~IT
TO ALLOW THE CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW STAIRWAY
AT DOCK SITE ~02930 ABUTTING THREE POINTS BLVD.
CONSTRUCTION ON PUBLIC LANDS
WHEREAS, Joel and Sandra Laskey who reside at 1749 Sumach
Lane, have applied for a Construction on Public Lands Permit to
allow the construction of a new stairway to provide access to their
dock at dock site #02930 which abuts Three Points Blvd., or for
filing purposes, the address of 4901 Three Points Blvd. which is
located across the street, and;
WHEREAS, City Code Section 320, requires City Council
approval by a four-fifths vote for Construction of any kind on any
public way, park or commons, or the alteration of the natural
contour of any public way, park, or commons, and;
WHEREAS, there currently is no access by stairs to this dock
site and the terrain is such that a stairway is necessary, and;
WHEREAS, this site is subject to some erosion potential,
cutting and trimming of vegetation must be kept to a minimum, and'
WHEREAS, this dock site is within walking distance for the
applicant, and;
WHEREAS, it is difficult to share a dock in this location
because the docks are only three sections long due to the deep
water, and due to the topography, it may be impractical to have one
stairway jointly used with a walkway at the shoreline, and;
WHEREAS, the Park and Open Space Commission reviewed this
request and recommended approval by a 6-1-1 vote.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the city Council of the
city of Mound, Minnesota, as follows:
1. To approve a Construction on Public Lands Permit to allow the
construction of a new stairway at dock site $02930, upon the
following conditions:

CONSTRUCTION ON PUBLIC L~NDS TO CONSTRUCT NEW STAIRWAY.
Jim Fackler, Parks Director, reviewed the applicant's request for permit
approval to construct a new stairway to their dock site which abuts
Three Points Blvd.
There currently is no access by stairs to this dock site and the terrain
is such that a stairway is necessary. The plans submitted by the
applicant are not to scale and are inadequate for permit issuance. It
is possible to construct a code conforming stair at this site and the
applicant will need to work directly with the Building Official and
revise the plans to accurately reflect the conditions and provide a safe
stairway. This site is subject to some erosion potential, cutting and
trimming of vegetation must be kept to a minimum and be supervised by
the Parks Director who will also keep track of the shoreline
maintenance. This area is currently being considered for riprapping.
Staff recommended approval of the Construction on Public Lands Permit
subject to the following conditions:

Park and Open Space Commission Minutes
l,
May 13, 1993
The stairway shall be constructed according to Building Code and
the plans must be approved by the Building Official prior to
beginning any construction.
2. Cutting and Trimming of vegetation shall be kept to a minimum and
be supervised by the Parks Director.
3. The permit shall expire five (5) years from the date of City
Council approval.
4. If compliance to these conditions has not been achieved within one
(1) year of date of approval of the permit, the applicants dock
license will not be issued until compliance has been achieved.
Chair Skoglund read a letter received from Nancy Gardner who resides
across the street from the proposed stairway location, as follows:
"I object to the land use application to construct a new stairway for the following
reasons:
1. It was unclear to me and the Mound official who visited the site on Wednesday,
May I2, ~993, whether this was an existing approved dock site or a new one. The
state marked "Laskey was directly above the Hawley dock, and the permit
application papers 9ave no measurements for the exact location of the proposed
stairs. I feel we need more information to make a good decision.
2. The shoreline slope to the north of the Hawley dock increases very sharply.
Clearing trees and 9round cover would cause erosion and damage the shoreline.
3. The three existing docks have only one boat moored to each dock at this time.
Have the Laskeys explored sharing the existing docks?
4. ~he. existing stairway and pathways down to the docks are eroded and unsafe.
Mernaps one central stairway with a horizontal walkway that connects to each dock
could be built instead.
5. If this is a new dock site, I feel there will be parking problems at Three
Points. My neighbor across the street has multiple slips in front of his house,
and there is congestion in the summer from those slips. The shore is littered
with dead trees, refuse and old tires. There is a Shore-station dumped half-way
up the bank. I realize these are not problems caused by the Laskeys, but they
speak to the lack of adequate maintenance and general problems with the docks and
their upkeep.
I think we need more information, and other options need to be explored so that the
Park Commission can make a wise decision, one that will benefit all parties and also
preserve Lake Minnetonka.,
The Dock Inspector clarified that this is an existing dock site which
has not been utilized in the past because it needed a stairway. It is
difficult to share a dock in this location because the docks are only
three sections long due to the deep water, and due to the topography, it
would be impractical to have one stairway jointly used with a walkway at
tge. shoreline. ~irshbaum commented that he is opposed to Joint
s~alrways. The Doc~ Inspector s~-~ ~ .... ' '
· . ~ . ~=u unu~ currently there is only one
stairway on public land being used by two parties. Casey stated that
the Park and Open Space Commission should talk about a policy on when to
encourage shared stairways, and Byrnes agreed.

Park and Open Space Cosm£ss£on Minutes ~~
13, 1993
The applicant confirmed that the dock has already been installed. The
Commission confirmed with staff that he has one year from date of
approval to install the stairway and questioned if it is hazardous to
allow him to use the dock without having a stairway to traverse the
steep slope.
It was noted that the recommendation for James' request included a
condition for approval which states, "The Maintenance Permit must be
renewed with change in Dock License holder." It was suggested this
condition be included in Laskey's approval to be consistent.
Skoglund addressed the issue of adequate parking, and the applicant
stated that the dock is in walking distance from his home.
MOTION made by Kirshbaum, seconded by Asleson to recommend
approval of the request as recommend by staff with the
inclusion of the following condition: "The Permit must be
renewed with change in Dock License holder." Motion carried
unanlmously.
The Commission noted that the approval for Mary Faith should also
include the same condition.
This request is scheduled to be heard by the City Council on May 25,
1993.

Parks Director, Jim Fackler, reviewed the applicant,s request for a
permit to replace an existing dilapidated stairway approved by previous
City Council Resolution #78-305.
The Building Official has reviewed the plans with the contractor on-site

minimu~ of 36" x 36")·
In 1978 the existing block retaining wall was recognized in the
application for a Maintenance Permit by Lewis R. Pavlo. A portion of
the wall appears to be both on commons and the applicant,s property. A
new survey is pending from the applicant and this should detail further
the conditions actually on the commons and the issues raised on the
status sheet. The survey was not available at the time the report was
prepared.
Staff recommended approval of the request to re-build the existing
dilapidated stairway subject to the following conditions:
1. The stairway shall be constructed to code as approved by the
Building Official.
The permit shall expire five (5) years from the date of City
Council approval.

Commons abutting 4737 Island View Drive, Block 7, Lot 7,
Devon, Dock Site #42351, upon the following conditions:
A. The size of the upper landing shall not exceed 3' wide by
.4' long and shall not be attached to the boathouse. The
~. )smaller landing size is consistent with the Shoreland
~ J- ....... ~ ~inance (city Code Section 350:1200) and
/ ~~'~evtl~pact to' the~ shoreland. The mid-landing
~ within the stairway shall not exceed 4' x 6'. The
smaller size is still large enough to maneuver items to
and from the lake and represents less impact to the
shoreland. An alternative would be to change the
location of the stairway to provide for less impact (note
original location on 1974 survey). If the stairway
location is changed, a new plan would have to be
submitted ·
B. The upper timber stairs may remain subject to the
installation of a handrail and guardrail on all stairs as
approved by the Building official
C. Retaining walls may remain subject to the owner
acknowledging that he constructed these walls without
approval of the city and is responsible for their

deteriorate and are in need of repair, it is the
responsibility of the owner of Lot 7, Block 7, Devon to
replace or repair the wall.
D. The guardrails may remain if they are buffered/screened
with plantings as approved by staff. ~'
Proposed Resolution
Hanus ~// Page 3
E. Hardcover decks/patios do not meet the standards of the
Shot·land Management Ordinance. The patio area should be
restored to a natural condition and planted with natural

walls and buffers the visual impact of the shoreland. A
landscape plan for the patio area must be prepared by the
applicant and approved by the staff.
The flagpole must be removed from the public commons.
Remove the wire fence located on Devon Commons.
All power supply to the co~~ns from 4737 Island View
Drive must be temporarily/disconnected by a qualified
electrical contractor. An application may be filed,
according to City Ordinances, to allow the electrical
work to remain. In the event an application is not
received within one year of the approval date of this
Resolution, all electrical work shall be removed from the
public commons.
The applicant shall be required to agree in writing to
the terms set forth in this resolution, and the Special
Permit. The Special Permit will expire one (1) year from
the date of City Council approval and upon agreement by
the applicant to be bound by the conditions. In one year
staff will evaluate compliance. If compliance has been
achieved, the permit will be extended administratively
for four (4) years.
If compliance has not been achieved within one year of
date of approval of the permit, staff will recommend the
applicant,s dock license not be issued until compliance
with all provisions and conditions set forth in the
Special Permit. If the applicant has not completed all
the necessary work set out in the conditions set forth in
the resolution and the permit, any rights to construct or
maintain these allowed improvements on public land shall
be considered revoked and City staff is authorized and
directed to proceed to remove all the improvements not
authorized and approved by the City Council.
Nothing contained in this approval shall be deemed by the
applicant or by the court to change prior actions or
prior orders of this Council for removal of the boathouse
as set forth in Council resolutions adopted on December
10, 1991 and May 26, 1992. It is the intent of this
Council to respond to the applicant's request to

A copy of this resolution granting a special permit shall
be filed as a memorial in the office of the registrar of
titles of Hennepin County or in the office of the County
Recorder if the property is abstracted property. The

1991 and May 26, 1992. In an attempt to resolve future conflicts and to
coordinate expiration dates, staff will address all issues on the site
at this time.
All conditions on the site should be evaluated in processing this
request according to the Flow Chart, the new Shoreland Management
Ordinance (SMO), City Code Section 320, and the Use Plan for Devon
Commons. Uses inconsistent with applicable regulations should be
discontinued at the earliest opportunity. Each single request is only
a small part of the publicly owned and managed shoreline, and the whole
section of Devon Commons in this area should be considered, including
the general topography of the shoreline, the immediate topography of

regulations to protect and preserve the public's right to use the public
lands.

Patio Area. Currently covered with patio blocks, this is
predominately a hardcover surface and was recognized by Resolution
$78-372. The city's goal at that time per the Flow Chart was
"Renewable up to 3 years contingent on the city's Use Plan." A

staff Recommendation
Staff recommended approval of a Construction on Public Lands Permit for
the stairway subject to the following conditions being incorporated into
a Resolution granting a Special Permit for the City Council's
consideration:
The size of the upper landing shall not exceed 3' wide by 4' long
and shall not be attached to the boathouse. The smaller landing
size is consistent with the SMO and reduces the impact to the
shoreland. The mid-landing within the stairway shall not exceed 4'
x 6'. The smaller size is still large enough to maneuver items to
and from the lake and represents less impact to the shoreland. An
alternative would be to change the location of the stairway to
provide for less impact (note original location on 1974 survey).
If the stairway location is changed, a new plan would have to be
submitted.
The upper timber stairs may remain subject to the installation of
an approved handrail and guardrail on all stairs.

Applicant's Response to Conditions
Dean Hanus expressed the following and concerns on each condition:
ndib~D~iD_~ He can live with it. Attaching the stairway to the
boathouse will minimize the impact and he would not have to install
an additional post, but he can comply with this condition.
Upper timber stairs. He is okay with this condition, even though
he is not sure a handrail is required by code.
Retaininq walls. He commented that it is common knowledgethat he
constructed these walls. The walls need no maintenance, they are
maintenance free, and to remove them would be unreasonable. He
agreed that language could be added stating that if retaining walls
degrade to a hazardous condition that it is the applicant's
responsibility to replace the wall. The Parks Director can discuss
language with the City Attorney.
o
~uardrails. Does not want to remove guardrail for safety reasons.
Patio. He feels #4 above and #5 should be combined. He would
agree to remove the tiles and replace with seed or sod, he would
like the guardrail to remain, and will add plants to buffer the
guardrail. He would like the City to help with the cost of
plantings.
FlagPole,_ The flagpole is not a big deal and has nothing to do
with the landings, but if that is what it takes, he will remove it
off of Devon Commons.
7. Fence. He agrees to remove the fence off of Devon Commons.
~lectrical. He does not feel this issue should be addressed at
this time due to the pending litigation and the electrical service
is a part of the boathouse. The city has agreed to let the courts
decide. Fackler suggested the power be cut until the boathouse
issue is resolved. Hanus does not want to disconnect the lights on
the walkway for safety reasons. The Commission discussed the need
to review their policy for Lights on Public Lands. It was
suggested the language in the condition be amended to include the
power be "temporarily" disconnected.
Terms for Compliance. Hanus commented that the way this condition
is written implies that even if he complies to all the conditions,
the City Council may not approve a permit. He wants the City
obligated to renew the permit, he wants some type of guarantee.
The Commission agreed to automatically give him a permit for four
years if after one year compliance to the conditions has been
achieved.

Public Lands Permit Application for Construction on Public
Lands for a Stairway
ADDlicant' S Request.
The applicant is seeking permit approval to construct a 3' x 12'
upper landing attached to the existing boathouse and a 6' x 6' mid
landing for the stairway. The original stairway was constructed
without a permit and portions have been removed according to City
Council order.
Background and Comments.
Stairways are considered permissible by the Use Plan for Devon
Commons and also by the new Shoreland Management Ordinance (see
attached City Code Section 350'1225 Subd. 3 B 1 - 5 and Subd.
The applicant's request includes anchoring the upper landing to the
boathouse that has been ordered to be removed by the Council. This
request is directly contrary to the City's prior order. Approval
of connection would conflict with City Council,s decision of
December 10, 1991 and May 26, 1992. In an attempt to resolve
future conflicts and to coordinate expiration dates, staff will
address all issues on the site at this time.

Staff Report
Dean Hanus
May 13, 1993
The City is currently in litigation with the applicant regarding
construction and reconstruction work without permits. All
conditions on the site should be evaluated in processing this
request according to the Flow Chart, the new Shoreland Management
Ordinance (SMO), City Code Section 320, and the Use Plan for Devon
Commons. Uses inconsistent with applicable regulations should be
discontinued at the earliest opportunity. Each single request is
only a small part of the publicly owned and managed shoreline, and
the whole section of Devon Commons in this area should be
considered, including the general topography of the shoreline, the
immediate topography of adjacent properties, and the transition of
one property to the next. The cumulative effect each micro project
has on the public shoreland must be in sync with the ultimate plan
that is defined by the collective regulations to protect and
preserve the public's right to use the public lands.
Other issues recoqnized by staff.
Applicant's request (lower stairway).
Upper timber stairway (never permitted, city did not order
removed).
Retaining Walls (never permitted, city did not order removed).
Guardrail on lake side of patio area (never permitted).
Patio Area. Currently covered with patio blocks, this is
predominately a hardcover surface and was recognized by
Resolution #78-372. The City's goal at that time per the Flow
Chart was "Renewable up to 3 years contingent on the City's
Use Plan." A walkway up to a maximum of 6 feet in width may
be allowed to tie the two stairways together.
Flagpole located in the patio area.

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
I am proposing a very limited improvement. Since
removing my deck at the city council's direction, I now
have no way to negotiate the steps leading to the lake.
I am requesting the addition of two landings strictly
for the purpose of being able to make the turns necessary
to get down to lake level. One is at the head of the steps
measuring 3 feet wide (tread width) and extending 12 feet
back. This allows easy attachment to the boathouse wall,
avoiding the need to install support posts as well as any
foundation or support slab for the posts that Jon S.
might require. The 3-foot X 12-foot upper landing is 36
square feet; well below the 48-square foot maximum for
landings that Jon quoted to me.
The second landing (half-way down to lake level) would
allow the 180 degree turn required to reach lake level.
I propose this to be 6 feet X 6 feet square. This landing
also measures only 36 square feet, well below the maximum
allowable for landings. These dimensions were chosen to allow
easier use when carrying boating equipment or recreational
items down to (or back from) the shoreline such as gas cans
for boats, skiis, fishing gear, canoes, paddles, lawn chairs,
etc., etc.
I am currently working with Jon Sutherland on this
project and, upon approval, will begin as soon as possible.
Sincerely
PROPOSED COST OF PROJECT
I don't expect the project to cost anything more
than a few dollars for nails or possibly joist hangars.
I plan on using the very lumber that made up the deck:
2 X 8 joists (green-treated lumber)
2 X 6 floor planking (red cedar)
2 X 2 spindles for safety railing (red cedar)

Bruce A. NcCo~bt 3005 Briqhton Blvd. t Lots 2, 3, 34 & 35, Block
~rden, Dock 8its ~50640. LAND ALTERATION TO TRIN BUSHES.
Parks Director, Jim Fackler, reviewed the applicant's request for
permission to trim existing lilac bushes down to 8 feet in height.
The lilac bushes have been on the commons for some time and they
partially block access up and down the length of the commons. It is the
position of the Parks Director, who has considered this situation for
some time, that they should be removed up to the applicant's property
line eliminating this obstruction and providing clear access at this
point.
It is the opinion of the applicant that the lilacs provide a hedge and
added privacy to their property, and they do not want them removed.
Staff recommended removal of the lilacs up to the full width of the
commons to improve the full width accessibility of this area. Removal,
grading and installation of seed and mulch can be accomplished within
the existing Parks Department Budget.
Note: Future recommendations will include removal of any type of
obstructions to access the commons.
The applicant, Bruce McComb addressed the Commission and vented his
anger towards the Parks Director relating to his recommendation. The
applicant reiterated reasons the bushes should be allowed to remain, as
follows:
Lilacs have been there for 15 to 20 years.
The lilacs do not make the property look private, what makes the
property appear private is the fact it is mowed.
He water and mows the large portion of Common abutting his
property, if bushes are removed, he will no longer mow.
Access is not blocked by the lilacs. Mr. McComb distributed
photographs which shows four people with arms stretched, and there
is room for four more, between the end of the bushes and the water.
There is 36 feet or more between the end of the bushes and the
water.
The Parks Director emphasized the need to set a precedent for removing
obstructions on the commons and questioned the difference between a
fence and bushes, as far as obstructions are concerned.
Kirshbaum reviewed the difference between a plant or hedge and a fence
structure. He believes 36' in 120' is plenty of access. The bushes
i be allowed to remain as long as maintained and not--ir.
OTION made by Kirshbaum, seconded by Byrnes to recommend the
ermit be granted to alloy trimming of the lilacs as/
equeeted.
referred to the flow chart which states "Will the reque~ enhance
and encourage the use of the public lands by the general public as
defined by the Use Plan?" He questioned if this could be interpreted to
mean that the "lilacs could enhance the public lands, but does not
encourage the use."
~MOTION carried 6 to 1. Those in favor were: Andersen,~
' ~ Asleson, Byrnes, Kirshbaum, Skoglund, and Ahrens. Casey J
~bstained. /
Casey noted that his reason for abstention is because he did n0~ have
the opportunity to personally view the site, and it may be his Opinion
that the lilacs should not be trimmed, but allow to remain.
This request is scheduled to be heard by the City Council on May 25,
1993.

Mr. Dayton Williamson
2207 Woodbridge Way
Woodbury, MN 55125
Dear Mr. Williamson:
I am in receipt of your letter dated April 28, 1993 requesting
that you be given an opportunity to appear at a city Council
meeting to request an adjustment in the fourth quarter billing of
your water and sewer usage.
I have reviewed your letter with City Staff and they have
brought me up to date as to what the situation was regarding your
account. Enclosed is a printout prepared by Gino Businaro, Finance
Director which specifies the 1992 and early 1993 billings for your
account. What you are apparently disputing is the fourth quarter
billing which indicated that you used 17,000 gallons between
November 18, 1992 and January 8, 1993, a total of 51 days. A new
meter was installed during this quarter, which I find hard to
believe would be inaccurate. We were also told by the present
owner of the property that the water softener had been leaking
which could contribute to the higher usage of that fourth quarter
billing.
Based upon the information presented to me, I do not see any
rationale to give you an adjustment on the fourth quarter billing.
The policy of the City with regard to utility bills is that the
outstanding billings remain with the property and unless you pay
the $95.40 to the City of Mound, the new owner will be responsible
for that amount.
Mr. Dayton Williamson
May 5, 1993
Page 2
I would suggest that you make payment to the City as soon as
possible. If you wish to appeal my decision to the City Council,
you are welcome to do so. I would ask that you advise me by Friday
morning, May 7, 1993 whether or not you wish to be placed on the
agenda for the upcoming meeting of Tuesday, May 11, 1993. Normally
our meetings begin at 7:30 PM, but due to the fact that the annual
Board of Review begins at 7 PM, the regular meeting will probably
not begin until at least $ PM. If you have any questions please
contact me. ,
~S~ncerely, ~

LMCD Car/Trailer Parking Sites Count
From my meeting with Gene Strommen, LMCD, in reference to car/
trailer parking sites in Mound, he informed me this checklist is
for peak use times only. This would mean weekends and holidays
only.
As you can see from the attached map, the LMCD has noted areas for
possible car/trailer parking. Each of these areas have limitations
from current no parking areas to parking in a lot that needs an
agreement from the owner.
By going through the LMCD,s Exhibit A, Checklist for Evaluating
Lake Minnetonka Public Access Car/Trailer Parking Agreements, you
will see a section numbered 1 - 5 which counts back off-street and
on-street car/trailer parking which addresses if the car/trailer
parking spaces are signed. The City of Mound, through the formula
that LMCD chose, can only qualify 47 car/trailer parking sites at
this time. If an agreement with GTE were made for use of its
parking lot the total number of car/trailer spaces would be 72.
The balance of Exhibit A is an agreement for cooperating with
provisions. Each needs to be discussed and initialled if the City
agrees with the statement.

RENTAL HOUSINO ORDINANCE TASK FORCE RECOMMENDATION
At the City Council meeting of Tuesday, March 9, 1993, a
question was raised by the City Council as to the status of the
Rental Housing Ordinance Task Force recommendation. I explained to
the Council that the task force was reviewing the proposed rental
housing ordinance in detail and to my knowledge, were not close to
making a recommendation on it. At that point, the City Council
directed that the recommendation of the task force be placed on the
May 25, 1993 City Council agenda for discussion. Please relay this
information on to the task force so that they are aware that there
is a deadline date to be completed with their review.

SUBJECT: RENTAL TASK FORCE REVIEW OF PROPOSED RENTAL REGULATIONS
The City Council formed the Rental Task Force after hearing

concerns.
The Task Force now has completed its review, and their proposals
are incorporated into the attached proposed ordinance. If the City
Council is to adopt the proposed rental ordinance, it is the
recommendation of the Task Force that the City Council approve the
amendments as displayed on the attached draft printed 5-18-93.

MINUTES OF A MEETING
of the
RENTAL TASK FORCE
City of Mound
May 17, 1993
Persons in attendance were: Building Official Jon Sutherland,
Planning Commission Representative Geoff Michael, Lewis Anderson,
Sue Anderson, Dorothy Netka, Julie Lilledahl, Jim Bedell, Dean
Hanson, Geoff Michael, and Jody Johnson.
The Minutes of May 10, 1993 were approved.
The Building Official distributed copies of the State of Minnesota
Department of Energy Factsheet that is a synopsis of the State
rules applicable to rental properties. The factsheet was discussed
and compared with the proposed rental ordinance. Each item in
Mound's proposed ordinance is covered by the existing State rules
with one exception, the State rules require more insulation in the
ceiling, R-35, and R-19 is proposed in the rental regulations. It
is the opinion of the Building Official that the more restrictive
State rules would apply.
The unanimous recommendation of the task force is to reference the
State rules and delete all but the first sentence in Section
319:50.
Section 319:75 - Unfit for Human Habitation, Subd. 1, at the end of
the first sentence add: "according to State Statutes 463.15
through 463.251." The balance of the Section, up to and including
319:90, Subd. 5., should be deleted.
This completes the review of the proposed ordinance by the Rental
Task Force. The recommendation is to be presented to the City
Council at the May 25, 1993 meeting by the Building Official. A
representative of the task force is also going to make a
recommendation or comment that is in addition to what the Council
has directed the task force to do.
The Building Official referenced a recent letter to the editor of
"The Laker" and requested that any future letters not include
mention of the task force as it is inappropriate.

MINUTES OF A 1VIEETING OF THE
MOUND ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION
PARK DEDICATION FEE
The Commission continued discussion on this issue and the general
consensus was that on lot splits the fee should only apply to newly
created buildable lots, and lots with houses existing on them
should not be charged.
Sutherland commented that he had discussed this issue with the City
Planner from Prior Lake and they have criteria they use to
determine fees based on the amount of park property existing in the
area where the subdivision is proposed. He also commented that our
ordinance may exceed the maximum 10 percent of the lot value we are
allowed to collect by State law.
MOTION made by Meyer, seconded by Hanus to inform the
City Council that the Planning Commission is in favor of
charging a park dedication fee only. for newly created
buildable lots. Motion carried unanimously.

Please make note and plan to participate in three coming events.

important to us to receive your comments throughout the budget process.
A public hearing on the 1994 proposed MWCC budget is scheduled for the June 15
meeting of the Board of Commissioners. Action on the 1994 proposed budget,
containing any changes as a result of suggestions from the breakfast meetings and
public hearing (6/15/93), is anticipated at the July 20 meeting of the Commission.
In response to customer requests, MWCC has scheduled one of the breakfast meetings
at the Metro Wastewater Treatment Plant in St. Paul, and for those of you who are
interested, MWCC will offer a tour of the Metro Plant following the meeting.

Minnesota Association of Housing Code ....
250 South 4th St. Room 300 Minneapolis, MN 35~1't.~'-IVI''U
May 18, 1993 MAY ~ D 1993
Mr. Jon Sutherland
Building Official
City of Mound
5452 Maywood Road
Mound, Minnesota 55364
Dear Jon:
Thank you for your recent inquiry regarding MAHCO's work in
pursuing a statewide housing code.
MAHCO was founded on the premise of providing uniformity in
inspections through certified housing inspectors using a
common housing maintenance code, to ensure Safe, decent
housing throughout the.State. Based on this premise, MAHCO
set out to develop a certification program for housing
inspectors and to develop a housing maintenance code that
would be adopted on a statewide basis.
MAHCO spent a great deal of time and effort reviewing many
different housing maintenance codes, inclucing ICBO-Uniform
Housing Code; Southern Building Code; BOCA-Property
Maintenance Code; as well as local codes such as Minneapolis
and St. Paul's Housing Maintenance Codes; and found the BOCA
Property Maintenance Code to be a far superior code.
We have since been working with BOCA to develop a
certification program for all Housing Inspectors, and
further have been in contact with State Representative Andy
Dawkins to sponsor legislation for the statewide adoption of
the BOCA Property Maintenance Code.
The Certification program is already under way and a BOCA
Housing Inspector Certification test should be available
within the next 18 to 22 months.
Andy Dawkins has indicated that he would tentatively be
presenting a Bill in September or October of this year for
the statewide adoption of the BOCA code for 1994.
As I had indicated to you previously, MAHCO's President Jim
Mlodyzniec, Past President Jose' Cervantes, and I would be
happy to meet with you and your council if we can be of
assistance.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to
contact me at 537-8421.

MINUTES OF A MEETING OF
MOUND ADVISORY PARK AND OPEN SPACE COMMISSION
MAY 13, 1993
Present were: Commissioners Lyndelle Skoglund, Brian Asleson, Tom
Casey, Shirley Andersen, Marilyn Byrnes, and Steve Kirshbaum; Council
Representative, Andrea Ahrens; Parks Director, Jim Fackler; Dock
Inspector, Tom McCaffrey; and Secretary, Peggy James. Commissioners
Carolyn Schmidt and Mo Mueller were absent. Schmidt was excused.
The following persons per also present: Dean Hanus, Mark Hanus, Lin
Terwilliger, Joel & Sandra Laskey, Mary Faith Bruce McComb, and Peter
Meyer. '
MINUTES
MOTION made by Casey seconded by Byrnes to approve the Park
and Open Space Commission Minutes of April 8, 1993 as written.
Motion carried unanimously.
AGENDA CHANGES
Byrnes requested an item be added to the agenda, but did not disclose
the subject, the chair noted this would be item 4.a. Asleson commented
that he would like to review with the Park Commission his meeting at the
City of Minnetrista regarding the trail system; this was added as item
5.a.
Dean Hanus of 4737 Island View Drive, questioned why he was so far down
on the agenda, when he is sure he was the first one to submit his
application, and he thought the policy was to review the cases in the
order in which they are received.
The Parks Director responded that he is responsible for setting the
agenda, and stated that he placed those requests early on the agenda
which he thought would take less time to review. The Parks Director
announced the dates the applications were received, as follows:
Faith 3-29
Laskey 4-19
James 3-29
Terwilliger 4-20
Hanus 3-23
McComb 5-5
Kirshbaum suggested the applications be reviewed by the date they were
received. Casey and Skoglund both commented that people who are at the
meeting may be relying on the agenda order. Anderson suggested that
James be moved last as the applicant is the Secretary and will be
present through the entire meeting anyway. The consensus was to move
forward with the present agenda with the exception of moving James last,
and in the future the applications will be reviewed in the order in
which they were received.

Charles and Mary Faith, 4625 Island View Drive, Block 1, Lot 10, Devont
Dock Site ~41319. LAND ALTERATION TO TRIM VEGETATION.
Jim Fackler, Parks Director, reviewed the applicant's request for a
permit to trim trees and also cut sumac to enhance the view of the lake
from their house, and to reconstruct the existing dilapidated stairway
to their dock.
The City's new Shoreland Management Ordinance allows limited clearing
and trimming of vegetation on steep slopes to provide a view to the
water from the principal dwelling site provided that screening of
structures is not substantially reduced.
The trees can be trimmed in a manner appropriate for removal of branches
to benefit the trees. Healthy trees and plants with healthy root
systems must remain intact to prevent erosion of the steep slope. Staff
must conduct an on-site evaluation with the applicant or a licensed tree
trimmer hired by the applicant. All trimming must be removed from the
site and cost of removal and trimming is the applicant's responsibility.
Dead and dangerous material can be removed at the direction of staff and
one hazardous branch was recently allowed to be removed.
The existing stairway is in poor condition and the permit is expired.
Miscellaneous electrical work is evident on Devon Commons and no permit
is on record for this work. A portion of a fence is on Devon Commons,
shared with 4617 Island View Drive, and there is no permit. The owner
states the fence belongs to the neighbor. There is also water supply
piping from the house to wash boats, etc., and again, no permit.
Staff recommends approval of a Land Alteration Permit for the trimming
of vegetation and approval of a Construction on Public Lands Permit to
replace the stairway, subject to the following conditions:
Only one occasion permitted for trimming and minor clearing of
trees and sumac, as directed by staff.
The existing stairway must be replaced to code in the same
location. A plan must be submitted and approved by staff prior to
any construction.
Ail electrical work on public property is required by State law to
be installed by a qualified licensed electrical contractor and
inspected and approved by the State Electrical Inspector. The City
Council must first approve of the proposed installation. A scaled
site plan must be submitted showing in detail the location of all
electrical services on Devon Commons. All power supply to the
commons from 4625 Island View Drive must be disconnected by a
qualified electrical contractor until such work is approved by the
City Council. The applicant must verify disconnection with City
staff.
The fence must be removed.

o
The water supply piping may remain upon the condition that the
installation be approved by the City Plumbing Inspector. The
applicant must verify with City staff. The applicant shall be
responsible for the plumbing permit and any inspection fees that
result.
6. If compliance to these conditions has not been achieved within one
(1) year of date of approval of the permit, the applicant,s dock
license will not be issued until compliance has been achieved.
The applicant, Mary Faith, addressed the Commission and stated that they
just purchased the house in January. The hillside on the Commons is
full of debris. She stated they would prefer to disconnect the
electrical and water services. She also asked if they can disconnect
the services rather than hire a licensed contractor. The Parks Director
noted that work being done on public property requires a licensed
contractor; staff will verify this with the Building Official. She also
stated that they would prefer to repair the stairway versus totally
replace it. Ahrens noted that the applicant did not note on the
application form that they want to replace the stairway. The Parks
Director noted that after a site visit and discussions between the
applicant and Building Official it was the intent of the applicant to
fix the stairway. Ahrens requested the applicant amend their
application form to reflect their request to repair the stairway.
NOTION made b~ Skoglund, seconded by Byrnes to recommend
approval of the Special Permit as recommended by staff.
Notion carried unanimously.
This request will be heard by the City Council on May 25, 1993.

CONSTRUCTION ON PUBLIC LANDS TO CONSTRUCT ~EW STAIRWAY.
Jim Fackler, Parks Director, reviewed the applicant's request for permit
approval to construct a new stairway to their dock site which abuts
Three Points Blvd.
There currently is no access by stairs to this dock site and the terrain
is such that a stairway is necessary. The plans submitted by the
applicant are not to scale and are inadequate for permit issuance. It
is possible to construct a code conforming stair at this site and the
applicant will need to work directly with the Building Official and
revise the plans to accurately reflect the conditions and provide a safe
stairway.
This site is subject to some erosion potential, cutting and
trimming of vegetation must be kept to a minimum and be supervised by
the Parks Director who will also keep track of the shoreline
maintenance. This area is currently being considered for riprapping.
Staff recommended approval of the Construction on Public Lands Permit
subject to the following conditions:
3
JI I I I I Ii I ~
Park aad Opea ~pace ~om£ssioa Miaut~s
1993
The stairway shall be constructed according to Building Code and
the plans must be approved by the Building Official prior to
beginning any construction.
Cutting and Trimming of vegetation shall be kept to a minimum and
be supervised by the Parks Director.
The permit shall expire five (5) years from the date of City
Council approval.
If compliance to these conditions has not been achieved within one
(1) year of date of approval of the permit, the applicants dock
license will not be issued until compliance has been achieved.
Chair Skoglund read a letter received from Nancy Gardner who resides
across the street from the proposed stairway location, as follows:
~I object to the land use application to construct a new stairway for the following
reasons:
It was unclear to me and the Mound official who visited the site on Wednesday,
May 12, 1993, whether this was an existin9 approved dock site or a new one. The
state marked "Laskey was directly above the Hawley dock, and the permit
application papers gave no measurements for the exact location of the proposed
stairs. I feel we need more information to make a 9ood decision.
The shoreline slope to the north of the Hawley dock increases very sharply.
Clearing trees and ground cover would cause erosion and damage the shoreline.
The three existin9 docks have only one boat moored to each dock at this time.
Have the Laskeys explored sharing the existing docks?
The existing stairway and pathways down to the docks are eroded and unsafe.
Perhaps one central stairway with a horizontal walkway that connects to each dock
could be built instead.
If this is a new dock site, I feel there will be parking problems at Three
Points. My neighbor across the street has multiple slips in front of his house,
and there is congestion in the summer from those slips. The shore is littered
with dead trees, refuse and old tires. There is a Shore-station dumped half-way
up the bank. I realize these are not problems caused by the Laskeys, but they
speak to the lack of adequate maintenance and general problems with the docks and
their upkeep.
I think we need more information, and other options need to be explored so that the
Park Commission can make a wise decision, one that will benefit all parties and also
preserve Lake Minnetonka."
The Dock Inspector clarified that this is an existing dock site which
has not been utilized in the past because it needed a stairway. It is
difficult to share a dock in this location because the docks are only
three sections long due to the deep water, and due to the topography, it
would be impractical to have one stairway jointly used with a walkway at
the shoreline. Kirshbaum commented that he is opposed to joint
stairways. The Dock Inspector stated that currently there is only one
stairway on public land being used by two parties. Casey stated that
the Park and Open Space Commission should talk about a policy on when to
encourage shared stairways, and Byrnes agreed.
Park and Open Space ~ommiss£on M&nutes Nay 13, 1993
The applicant confirmed that the dock has already been installed. The
Commission confirmed with staff that he has one year from date of
approval to install the stairway and questioned if it is hazardous to
allow him to use the dock without having a stairway to traverse the
steep slope.
It was noted that the recommendation for James' request included a
condition for approval which states, "The Maintenance Permit must be
renewed with change in Dock License holder.,, It was suggested this
condition be included in Laskey's approval to be consistent.
Skoglund addressed the issue of adequate parking, and the applicant
stated that the dock is in walking distance from his home.
MOTION made by Kirshbatun, seconded by Asleson to recommend
approval of the request as recommend by staff with the
inclusion of the following condition: "The Permit must be
renewed with change in Dock License holder.', Motion carried
unanimously.
The Commission noted that the approval for Mary Faith should also
include the same condition.
This request is scheduled to be heard by the City Council on May 25
1993. ,

~EPLACE EXISTING STAIRWAY.
Parks Director, Jim Fackler, reviewed the applicant,s request for a
permit to replace an existing dilapidated stairway approved by previous
City Council Resolution #78-305.
The Building Official has reviewed the plans with the contractor on-site
and determined the proposal is consistent with the Building Code and
well suited for the site (with the exception that the landing must be a
minim~]~ of 36" x 36").
In 1978 the existing block retaining wall was recognized in the
application for a Maintenance Permit by Lewis R. Pavlo. A portion of
the wall appears to be both on commons and the applicant's property. A
new survey is pending from the applicant and this should detail further
the conditions actually on the commons and the issues raised on the
status sheet. The survey was not available at the time the report was
prepared.
Staff recommended approval of the request to re-build the existing
dilapidated stairway subject to the following conditions:
The stairway shall be constructed to code as approved by the
Building Official.
Park and Open Space Commission H~nutes
May 13, 1993
The permit shall expire five (5) years from the date of City
Council approval.
If compliance to these conditions has not been achieved within one
(1) year of date of approval of the permit, the applicants dock
license will not be issued until compliance has been achieved.
Staff confirmed the existing retaining wall is in good condition.
MOTION made by Skoglund, seconded by Byrnes, to recommend
approval of the request as recommended by staff· Motion
carried unanimously.
This request is scheduled to be heard by the City Council on May 25,
1993.
Dean Ranus, 4737 Island View Drive, Block 7, Lot 7, Devon, Dock Site
~42351. CONSTRUCTION ON PUBLIC LANDS TO CONSTRUCT STAIRWAY LANDINGS.
Parks Director, Jim Fackler informed the Commission that the City is
currently in litigation with the applicant regarding construction and
reconstruction work on Devon Commons without permits. This report has
been reviewed by the City Attorney and was adjusted accordingly.
Fackler reviewed the applicant's request for permit approval to
construct a 3' x 12' upper landing attached to the existing boathouse
and a 6' x 6' mid landing for the stairway. The original stairway was
constructed without a permit and portions have been removed according to
City Council order.
Backqround and Comment~
Stairways are considered permissible by the Use Plan for Devon Commons
and also by the new Shoreland Management Ordinance (see attached City
Code Section 350:1225, Subd. 3. B. 1. - 5. and Subd. 4.
The applicant's request includes anchoring the upper landing to the
boathouse that has been ordered to be removed by the Council. This
request is directly contrary to the City's prior order. Approval of
connection would conflict with City Council's decision of December 10,
1991 and May 26, 1992. In an attempt to resolve future conflicts and to
coordinate expiration dates, staff will address all issues on the site
at this time.
Ail conditions on the site should be evaluated in processing this
request according to the Flow Chart, the new Shoreland Management
Ordinance (SMO), City Code Section 320, and the Use Plan for Devon
Commons. Uses inconsistent with applicable regulations should be
discontinued at the earliest opportunity. Each single request is only
a small part of the publicly owned and managed shoreline, and the whole
section of Devon Commons in this area should be considered, including
the general topography of the shoreline, the immediate topography of
6
Park and Open Space Commiss£on Minutes Hay 13, 1993
adjacent properties, and the transition of one property to the next.
The cumulative effect each micro project has on the public shoreland
must be in sync with the ultimate plan that is defined by the collective
regulations to protect and preserve the public's right to use the public
lands.
Other issues Recoqnized by Staff
1. Applicant's request (lower stairway).
2. Upper timber stairway (never permitted, City did not order
removed).
3. Retaining Walls (never permitted, City did not order removed).
4. Guardrail on lake side of patio area (never permitted).
o
Patio Area. Currently covered with patio blocks, this is
predominately a hardcover surface and was recognized by Resolution
#78-372. The City's goal at that time per the Flow Chart was
"Renewable up to 3 years contingent on the City's Use Plan." A
walkway up to a maximum of 6 feet in width may be allowed to tie
the two stairways together.
6. Flagpole located in the patio area.
7. The wire fence on the east side of the property on Devon Commons.
8. Miscellaneous Electrical and Low Voltage Lighting.
staff Recommendation
Staff recommended approval of a Construction on Public Lands Permit for
the stairway subject to the following conditions being incorporated into
a Resolution granting a Special Permit for the City Council's
consideration:
The size of the upper landing shall not exceed 3' wide by 4' long
and shall not be attached to the boathouse. The smaller landing
size is consistent with the SMO and reduces the impact to the
shoreland. The mid-landing within the stairway shall not exceed 4'
x 6'. The smaller size is still large enough to maneuver items to
and from the lake and represents less impact to the shoreland. An
alternative would be to change the location of the stairway to
provide for less impact (note original location on 1974 survey).
If the stairway location is changed, a new plan would have to be
submitted.
The upper timber stairs may remain subject to the installation of
an approved handrail and guardrail on all stairs.
Park and Open Space Comu£ss£on Hinutes

10.
Retaining walls may remain subject to the owner acknowledging that
he constructed these walls and is responsible for their maintenance
and or removal.
Remove guardrails and replace with appropriate plantings to deter
access at the top of all retaining walls.
Hardcover decks/patios are no longer consistent with the SMO. The
patio area should be restored to a natural condition and planted
with natural vegetation that facilitates screening of the retaining
walls and buffers the visual impact of the shoreland. A landscape
plan for the patio area must be prepared by the applicant and
approved by the staff.
The flagpole must be removed or relocated to private property.
Remove the wire fence located on the property line.
Ail electrical work on public property is required by State law to
be installed by a qualified licensed electrical contractor and
inspected and approved by the State Electrical Inspector. The City
Council must first approve of the proposed installation. A scaled
site plan must be submitted showing in detail the location of all
electrical services on Devon Commons. All power supply to the
commons from 4737 Island View Drive must be disconnected by a
qualified electrical contractor until such work is approved by the
City Council. The applicant must verify disconnection with staff.
The applicant shall be required to agree in writing to the terms
set forth in the Special Permit. The Special Permit will expire
one (1) year from the date of City Council approval and agreement
by the applicant to be bound by the conditions. In one years time
staff will evaluate compliance. If compliance has been achieved,
the City Council will have the opportunity to renew the permit for
up to five years, according to the Flow Chart, or may amend the
permit to include other conditions beneficial to the public.
If compliance has not been achieved within one year of date of
approval of the permit, staff recommends the applicant's dock
license not be issued until compliance with all provisions and
conditions set forth in the Special Permit.
The property owner shall have the responsibility of filing and
recording the resolution approving the permit with Hennepin County
as a notice to any purchaser or party of interest that Lot 7, Block
7, Devon is subject to the restrictions and conditions of the
Special Permit, and paying all costs for such recording. Proof of
recording must be filed with the City Clerk within thirty days or
the Special permit shall be cancelled.

Park and Open Space Commiss£on Minutes Hay 13, 1993
Applicant's Response to Condition~
Dean Hanus expressed the following and concerns on each condition:
1. ~andinqs. He can live with it. Attaching the stairway to the
boathouse will minimize the impact and he would not have to install
an additional post, but he can comply with this condition.
2. Upper timber stairs. He is okay with this condition, even though
he is not sure a handrail is required by code.
3. Retaining walls. He commented that it is common knowledge that he
constructed these walls. The walls need no maintenance, they are
maintenance free, and to remove them would be unreasonable. He
agreed that language could be added stating that if retaining walls
degrade to a hazardous condition that it is the applicant's
responsibility to replace the wall. The Parks Director can discuss
language with the City Attorney.
4. guardrails. Does not want to remove guardrail for safety reasons.
5. patio. He feels ~4 above and #5 should be combined. He would
agree to remove the tiles and replace with seed or sod, he would
like the guardrail to remain, and will add plants to buffer the
guardrail. He would like the City to help with the cost of
plantings.
o
Fl_~ole. The flagpole is not a big deal and has nothing to do
with the landings, but if that is what it takes, he will remove it
off of Devon Commons.
Fence. He agrees to remove the fence off of Devon Commons.
Electrical. He does not feel this issue should be addressed at
this time due to the pending litigation and the electrical service
is a part of the boathouse. The City has agreed to let the courts
decide. Fackler suggested the power be cut until the boathouse
issue is resolved. Hanus does not want to disconnect the lights on
the walkway for safety reasons. The Commission discussed the need
to review their policy for Lights on Public Lands. It was
suggested the language in the condition be amended to include the
power be "temporarily,, disconnected.
0
~erms for Compliance. Hanus commented that the way this condition
is written implies that even if he complies to all the conditions,
the City Council may not approve a permit. He wants the City
obligated to renew the permit, he wants some type of guarantee.
The Commission agreed to automatically give him a permit for four
years if after one year compliance to the conditions has been
achieved.

Filing Resolution. Hanus does not agree with this condition as it
presents a negative flag on the property. He is suspicious of the
reason for this condition.
MOTION made by Asleson, seconded by Ahrens to recommend
approval of the request to construct landings on Devon Commons
as recommended by staff with the foil.wing amended conditions:
The size of the upper landing shall not exceed 3' wide by 4'
long and shall not be attached to the boathouse. The smaller
landing size is consistent with the SM, and reduces the impact
to the shoreland. The mid-landlng within the stairway shall
not exceed 4' x 6'. The smaller size is still large enough to
maneuver items to and from the lake and represents less impact
to the shoreland. An alternative would be to change the
location of the stairway to provide for less impact (note
original location on 1974 survey). If the stairway location
is changed, a new plan would have to be submitted.
The upper timber stairs may remain subject to the installation
of an approved handrail and guardrail on all stairs.
Retaining walls may remain subject to the owner acknowledging
that he constructed these walls and is responsible for their
maintenance --~ ........ ·
......... · ... If the retaining walls degrade to
a dilapidated condition, it is then the abutting
owner/applicant's responsibility to replace the wall. (The
City Attorney should clarify language.)
0
guardrails may remain if they are buffered/screened with
plantings as approved by staff.
Hardcover decks/patios are no longer consistent with the SMO.
The patio area should be restored to a natural condition and

Parks Director, Jim Fackler, reviewed the applicant's request for
permission to trim existing lilac bushes down to 8 feet in height.

Park and Open Space eonniss£on Minutes
May 13, 1993
The lilac bushes have been on the commons for some time and they
partially block access up and down the length of the commons. It is the
position of the Parks Director, who has considered this situation for
some time, that they should be removed up to the applicant's property
line eliminating this obstruction and providing clear access at this
point.
It is the opinion of the applicant that the lilacs provide a hedge and
added privacy to their property, and they do not want them removed.
Staff recommended removal of the lilacs up to the full width of the
commons to improve the full width accessibility of this area. Removal,
grading and installation of seed and mulch can be accomplished within
the existing Parks Department Budget.
Note: Future recommendations will include removal of any type of
obstructions to access the commons.
The applicant, Bruce McComb addressed the Commission and vented his
anger towards the Parks Director relating to his recommendation. The
applicant reiterated reasons the bushes should be allowed to remain, as
follows:
Lilacs have been there for 15 to 20 years.
The lilacs do not make the property look private, what makes the
property appear private is the fact it is mowed.
He water and mows the large portion of Common abutting his
property, if bushes are removed, he will no longer mow.
Access is not blocked by the lilacs. Mr. McComb distributed
photographs which shows four people with arms stretched, and there
is room for four more, between the end of the bushes and the water.
There is 36 feet or more between the end of the bushes and the
water.
The Parks Director emphasized the need to set a precedent for removing
obstructions on the commons and questioned the difference between a
fence and bushes, as far as obstructions are concerned.
Kirshbaum reviewed the difference between a plant or hedge and a fence
structure. He believes 36' in 120' is plenty of access. The bushes
should be allowed to remain as long as maintained and not in disrepair.
MOTION made by Kirshbaum, seconded by Byrnes to recommend the
permit be granted to allow trimming of the lilacs as
requested.
Casey referred to the flow chart which states "Will the request enhance
and encourage the use of the public lands by the general public as
defined by the Use Plan?" He questioned if this could be interpreted to
mean that the "lilacs could enhance the public lands, but does not
encourage the use."

Those present were: Chair Bill Meyer, Commissioners Geoff Michael,
Michael Mueller, Bill Voss, Mark Hanus, and Brian Johnson, City
council Representative Liz Jensen, Building Official Jon Sutherland
and Secretary Peggy James. Jerry Clapsaddle was absent and
excused.
The following people were also in attendance: Kathleen Spaulding,
Gary Spaulding, Dick DeGuise, Rosemary DeGuise, Mark Motzko, Ray
and Sue Falls, Richard Sollie, Darlene Sollie, Jeff Ritenour, and
Roxanne Ritenour.
MINUTES
The Planning Commission Minutes of April 26, 1993 were presented
for approval.
Brian Johnson requested that discussion pertaining to the Nuisance
Ordinance be included in the minutes. It was determined that the
Secretary will add this to the minutes and resubmit them for
approval at the next meeting.
Case ~93-012: Gary & Kathleen Spaulding, 5335 Baywood Shores
Drive, Lot 4, Block 5, Replat of Harrison Shores, PID ~13-117-24 21
0069. VARIANCE.
Building Official, Jon Sutherland, reviewed the status of this
request. On April 12, 1993 the Planning Commission tabled this
request until further information could be provided. Issues of
hardship, reasonable use, and practical difficulty were discussed.
It was noted the house was improperly set on the corner lot by not
providing enough setback for an entryway. There was the impression
that the entryway would create a more condusively designed house
for the neighborhood and that other houses in the area also have
entryways.
The revised survey shows a setback of 22.5' from the proposed
addition to Baywood Shores Drive, the required setback is 30'. The
existing nonconforming setback to the south property line of 29.01'
also needs to be recognized. All other setbacks and impervious
surface coverage are conforming.
Staff recommended that if lack of hardship or practical difficulty
exists the request should be denied. If it is found that practical
difficulty exists due to the fact the house was poorly placed on
the corner lot and that it is reasonable to allow the further
encroachment of 7.5' into the front yard, and further that the
addition will create a more condusively designed house for the
neighborhood, a favorable recommendation could be made.
Planning Commission Minutes May 10, 1993
MOTION made by Hanus, seconded by Mueller to recommend
approval of the 7.$' front yard setback variance to the
south front property line (Baywood Shores Drive) to allow
construction of an entryway addition, and to recoqnize
the existing nonconforming front yard setback of 29.01'
to the west front property line (Baywood Lane), including
the following finding of facts:
Practical difficulty exists due to the fact that the
house was poorly placed on the corner lot.
The proposed entryway addition will create a more
condusively designed house for the neighborhood.
Michael questioned what the difference is from the original request
other than the proposed variance is only a half a foot less.
Jensen also commented that she finds it difficult to believe that
because the house was improperly placed creates a practical
difficulty and that the house needs the additional space as it is
already a fairly large house, it is hard to see the hardship.
MOTION carried $ to 3. Those in favor were: Meyer,
Hanus, Mueller, Voss and Weiland. Those opposed were:
Johnson, Jensen and Michael.
This case will be reviewed by the City Council on May 25, 1993.
Case #93-014: Mark Motzko, 4882 Leslie Road, Lots 11, 12, & 13,
Block 21, W¥chwood, PID 24-117-24 41 0178. VARIANCE.
Building Official, Jon Sutherland, reviewed the applicant's request
for a variance to recognize existing nonconforming setbacks in
order to construct a fully conforming entry deck. The resulting
variances are 13' to the north front (Monmouth) and 1' to the east
side. The impervious surface coverage for both existing and
proposed appears conforming to the maximum 30 percent allowed by
City Code. Staff recommended approval of the request as the
proposal is fully conforming to the applicable requirements of the
City Code.
Jensen questioned the Building Official's statement that the
impervious surface "appears" conforming. The Building Official
commented that according to the applicant's calculations the lot
conforms to the lot coverage requirements. He also stated that
there is existing impervious cover where the deck is proposed to be
located so the amount of hardcover does not change.
MOTION made by Hanus, seconded by Michael to recommend
approval of the variance request as recommended by staff.
Motion carried unanimously.
This case will be heard by the City Council on May 11, 1993.

16, Block 9m Mound Bay Park, .PID ~23-117-24 14 0027. MINOR
SUBDIVISION.
Building Official, Jon Sutherland, reviewed the applicant's request
for a Minor Subdivision to create two lots, both of which will be
conforming to the minimum lot area requirement of 6,000 square
feet. Parcel A is proposed with 8,451 square feet and Parcel B
with 6,607 square feet. Parcel A has an existing nonconforming
dwelling due to the front yard setback of 11.5' resulting in an
8.5' setback variance which was recognized by Resolutions #91-43
and $92-110.
Staff recommended approval of the request for minor subdivision
subject to the following conditions:
Sanitary sewer and water services either be installed before
the subdivision is recorded or some type of guarantee be
provided, such as cash escrow or performance bond.
2. Provide entrance and utility installation permits from
Hennepin County.
e
Final Grading and Erosion Control Plan to be approved by the
City Engineer at time of building permit application.
A park dedication fee be paid as required by City Code of $500
per lot being created.
Weiland referred to the applicant's variance application where he
stated, "Road was moved many years ago when Mound was first being
populated, we found out by old residents". Weiland and Mueller
both believed this statement to be untrue.
Mueller questioned the amount of fill that will be brought in to
construct the house on Parcel B and questioned if the Shoreland
Management Ordinance (SMO) has a limit on the amount of fill. He
also noted that the survey does not reflect proposed elevations.
The Building Official commented that the SMO was reviewed and
applied to the application. He suggested that a condition could be
added requiring that all grading and filling must comply with the
SMO. The Building Official added that the building permit includes
grading and filling.
Meyer questioned where the future owner of Parcel B will store his
boat and other items, noting that with 10 foot side yard setbacks
on each side and considering the elevations it would be difficult
to store anything at the side of the house, there is not much open
space except in the front yard.
Hanus referred to condition $4 relating to park dedication and
commented that he does not agree with how the ordinance is being
interpreted, and feels only one unit should be charged. Weiland
Planning Commission Minutes May 10, 1993
recalled that when the ordinance was originally written it was
intended to charge a fee for each new lot only. It was determined
to add this issue as a discussion item at the end of the agenda.
Concern was expressed that the hardcover is maxed out and does not
allow for future expansion, such as for a deck.
MOTION made by Michael, seconded by Voss to recommend
approval of the request for minor subdivision and
variance recognition as recommended by staff, including
the following conditions:
Sanitary sewer and water services either be installed
before the subdivision is recorded or some type of
guarantee be provided, such as cash escrow or performance
bond.
Provide entrance and utility installation permits from
Hennepin County.
e
Final Grading and Erosion Control Plan to be approved by
the City Engineer at time of building permit application.
Cash deposit in the amount of $500.00 be required to
offset any direct outside City expenses.

$500 per lot being created.

Planning Commission Minutes
May 10, 1993
The request includes an addition consisting of a second story entry
and garage. The applicants intend to remove the nonconforming
detached garage and restore this area to green space. The proposed
garage is of minimal size and is better suited to the property in
its proposed location. The topography on this lot and the need to
provide easy access creates a practical difficulty when considering
design provisions for the updating that is needed on the home. It
appears reasonable to allow some flexibility in the application of
the impervious surface provisions of the City Code.
Staff recommends approval of the request for variances to recognize
existing and proposed nonconforming setbacks and a variance of
1,055 square feet or 47 percent to the maximum 30 percent
impervious coverage allowable by City Code with the following
conditions:
The final grading plan be reviewed and approved prior to
building permit issuance by the City Engineer and Building
Official.
Ail retaining walls greater than 4 feet in height shall be
properly engineered.
The nonconforming detached garage be removed prior to building
permit issuance, or some type of guarantee be provided, such
as cash escrow or a bond.
Richard and Rosemary DeGuise of 4932 Glen Elyn Road, neighbors to
the east, commented on the water problems caused by poor drainage
due to the raising of the street when it was improved. They want
to make sure that this drainage problem is corrected, or at least
improved, if the proposed addition is allowed to be constructed.
They also disagreed with the survey submitted by the applicant
stating that the property line between them was improperly located
because the survey used the wrong stake as an origin.
The Building official commented that the City Engineer also
expressed a concern with the elevations and drainage.
Mueller expressed a concern regarding the amount of hardcover and
commented that the front patio is too big and the deck is also very
large, and these are items that affect run-off when there is too
much hardcover.
Mr. Sollie addressed the Commission and stated that the reason for
the hardcover driveway is because they are proposing that the
garage be elevated higher than the street and with the hardcover
driveway will direct the drainage towards the street instead of
down the hill to the houses. He agreed that the patio could be
reduced in size. Mr. Sollie commented that this is their third set
of plans as they have been trying to develop the best plan possible
to help correct the drainage concerns.

It was noted that if the survey line is incorrect, it would change
the side yard setback and the hardcover percentage.

relating to the accuracy of the survey, to try and reduce
the amount of hardcover, and to ~eceive comments from ~he

VARIANCE. ·
Building Official, Jon Sutherland, reviewed the applicant,s request
for a variance to construct a fully conforming deck onto the
existing nonconforming dwelling. The dwelling is situated 5.76'
from the side yard that requires a 10 foot setback. The original
house was approved with the final inspection by the City Building
Inspector in 1972.
The lot area, according to the most recent survey by Paul Schoborg
in 1990, and confirmed by my phone conversation, is 12,400 square
feet +/-. Maximum impervious surface on the site at 30 percent is
limited to 3,720 square feet. The applicant,s calculations show
3,248 square feet, including the proposed deck, which is conforming
to the provisions of the ordinance.
Staff recommended approval of the request as the proposed deck is
conforming to the provisions of the City Code.
MOTION made by Michael, seconded by Weiland to recommend
approval of the variance as requested. Motion carried
unanimously.
This case will be heard by the City Council May 25, 1993.

RENTAL HOUSING ORDINANCE
Minutes of the Rental Task Force meeting of March 1, 1993 were
included in the packet. Geoff Michael informed the commission that
at their last meeting, just prior to tonights Planning Commission
meeting, the Task Force reviewed the revised final draft of the
rental ordinance which will be discussed at the May 25, 1993 City
Council meeting. It was questioned what changes were made and if
the ordinance will come back to the Planning Commission before it
is acted upon. Sutherland commented that the changes include the
removal of a lot of bulk relating to Fire Prevention requirements
which was replaced with the statement "Shall be installed according
to the code in effect at the time the building was constructed".
The City Council will decide how to proceed with the ordinance.
PARK DEDICATION FEE
The Commission continued discussion on this issue and the general
consensus was that on lot splits the fee should only apply to newly
created buildable lots, and lots with houses existing on them
should not be charged.
Sutherland commented that he had discussed this issue with the City
Planner from Prior Lake and they have criteria they use to
determine fees based on the amount of park property existing in the
area where the subdivision is proposed. He also commented that our
ordinance may exceed the maximum 10 percent of the lot value we are
allowed to collect by State law.
MOTION made by Meyer, seconded by Hanus to inform the
City Council that the Planning Commission is in favor of
charging a park dedication fee only for newly created
buildable lots. Motion carried unanimously.

Section 23, Township 117, Range 24
Hennepin County No. 2065
Review and Recommendations
We reviewed the above lot division and make the following comments:
- No additional right of way required by Hennepin County at this time along this
segment of CSAH 125.
- The location of the proposed driveway to Parcel B is acceptable to Hennepin
County. This access will require an approved Hennepin County entrance permit
before beginning any construction. Contact our Permits Section at 930-2548 for
entrance permit forms.
- All proposed construction within County right of way requires an approved utility
permit prior to beginning construction. This includes, but is not limited to
driveway removal, drainage and utility construction, trail development and
landscaping. Contact our Permits Section at 930-2550 for utility permit forms.
- The developer must restore all areas disturbed during construction within County
right of way.
Please direct any response to Les Weigelt.
