that allows for the purchase of the Glass Plus property by the HRA. This

Mayor and Council for inviting him to attend the meeting. He is thrilled to speak

development going on, from the new Public Safety Building and Mound
MarketPlace, to the proposed new hotel and Harbor Renaissance Development.

enrollment numbers, and the financial situation of the District.

The candidates were interviewed in the following order:
Joe Schlechter, Sherrie Jones, Monica Winkler, Mike Mason and Mike
Furnstahl.
Hentz: "How do you feel you would be able to make an impression
as a commissioner?"
Schlechter: Mound's my town and I am interested in being a
participant rather than just reading about it.

very well.

the public on the Boy Scouts, Vice President Lake Minnetonka
Association.

-517-
Domholt: "Do you foresee any absences, or problems with attending the

None of the candidates foresaw any problems. Furnstahl added that

Mo .tyka: "How long have you been a resident of Mound?"
Schlechter:: 2 ~ yrs
Jones: 12 yrs
Winkler: 9 yrs
Mason: 13 yrs
Furnstahl: 4 yrs
Taylor: "Is there anything you would like to make a statement about~ or
elaborate about on any of the questions on the application?"
Schlechter made the suggestion to advertise the parks more, such as
including a pamphlet in the new resident packet.
Jones was asked by Taylor if she felt her experience working for the
City of Victoria would be a benefit or a conflict. Jones stated that she
felt her experience would be reciprocal.
Winkler was not asked this question.
Mason stated that he sees opportunity for integration and tying into
other communities for a flow of people through the trail system.
Mason added that his experience as an environmental engineer would
serve Mound well.
Furnstahl~ when asked by Taylor, stated that he had never served on
a volunteer committee before.
Beise: "What are your thoughts on the proposed trails?"
Schlechter suggested more connectivity, more signage, bike lanes and
marked routes.
Jones stated that the trails are a wonderful idea. The more the better.
Winkler stated that she is a big fan of the trails and more are needed.
Mason stated that he would like to tie in with other communities to
allow for a flow of people through the trails.
Furnstahl stated that he didn't know enough about them to offer an
opinion other than he would like them to be open to more than foot
traffic.
Brown: "How would you go about earmarking future lands for parks?
,What's your favorite comedy movie?"
Schlechter stated that he would jump on new developments to include
the addition of trails and a park. An Abbott and Costello film where
they worked in a department store.
-518-
Jones stated that while there isn't a lot of land left to develop, both the
current active and passive parks could be developed more even if it's
a trail system from neighborhoods. "Something's Gotta Give"
Winkler stated that Haddorf Field should have been preserved. More
should be done to keep the current parks clean. "Christmas Vacation"
Mason was asked what he would do for the beaches as more and
people move into the city. Mason stated he would brainstorm ideas.
"Caddyshack"
Furnstahl was asked if he felt the current parks were clean. He stated
that they appear up to date, and he is amazed at how many there are.
"Blazing Saddles"
Osmek: "Is it wiser to release or retain the little chunks of tax forfeited land
around town?"
Schlechter stated it depends on the use intended by the buyer and
they need to be looked at on a case by case basis.
Jones stated that if they just exist and cannot be used as a park,
it's best to release them.
Winkler stated there are benefits to both. She also stated that she likes
to retain green space as much as possible.
Mason stated that it depends upon the situation.
Furnstahl stated that he is in favor of utilizing the land but that it
depends on the population requirements and the affordability.
Hanus: "Do you know how many parks are in Mound?" He then gave them
the correct # (31) and asked~ "Do you think that's a reasonable
compliment?"
Schlechter: 7-8. Sounds reasonable for the size of the City.
Jones: (Correct # given out from earlier interviewer.)Sounds
reasonable for population.
Winkler: 12 or so. We need more larger parks.
Mason: 15-20. Thinks it's reasonable
Furnstahh 10. Reasonable.
Meyer had no questions for the candidates. The interviews ended at 9:05pm.
Mike Mason was selected to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of Gene
Hostetler. Recommendation will go to the City Council for final approval. Brown
invited all the candidates to continue being involved because they had such passion
about the parks. Brown also indicated that he really liked Schlechter's suggestion
about including a park pamphlet in the new resident packet.
POSAC then elected to move to # 7 in order to hear from citizens in attendance
regarding that issue.
-519-
Discuss:
Snowmobile Access at Highland Park Street End
Applicant: Ronald Bauer
3135 Highland Bird
There was considerable discussion regarding why this issue has been brought
back since POSAC had already made a motion on it. Fackler gave a brief
update on the insurance issue regarding the sliding hill. The applicant
stated that restricting snowmobile traffic through the park will not help his
situation. During discussion it was pointed out that POSAC has no
jurisdiction over a city-owned alleyway and therefore cannot make a decision
on this issue.
Taylor suggested putting a subcommittee together which would include
members of the local snowmobile club to discuss setting up snowmobile trails
in the City of Mound. Beise requested that this be placed on the March
Agenda. Brown stated that he would bring the issue up to the City Council.

And City Council Members
City of Mound
5341 Maywood
Mound, MN 55364
Dear Mayor Meisel and Council Members,
On behalf of the Western Communities Action Network (WeCAN) Board
of Directors, I am asking the City of Mound to support our request for
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds.
WeCAN is the community-based human service organization dedicated to
helping families achieve greater self-sufficiency and stability. We have
been providing a variety of services to low-income residents in twelve
communities in western Hennepin County for over 14 years. WeCAN is
the sole designated provider of emergency human services in your
community. Our mission is to provide a safety net to these families during
a time of crisis. Our programs include emergency housing and utility
assistance, job counseling, family support services, public assistance
intake services and Meals on Wheels.
In 2003, we served over 1,700 households in.our service area. This reflects
a 40% increase in the number of households served in the previous year.
During these tough economic times and a climate of job lay-offs, we have
seen an increase in the number of clients seeking assistance for the first
time. The majority of our clients have household incomes .considered to be
low or very low. A financial crisis can be devastating for most families.
WeCAN was able to provide the guidance and assistance needed to
maintain some family stability.
Enclosed for your review is detailed 2003 demographic information about
the services provided in your community and surrounding area.
WeCAN serves the following communities: Grcenfield, Independence, Loretto, Maple Plain, Minnetonka
Beach, Minnetrista, Mound, Rockford_~ ~ni/acius, Spring Park, Tonka Bay & Western Orono
Way
Agency,
This year WeCAN is requesting $15,000 from the Comolidated CDBG
funds to support our mission of helping families in your community. We
ask for your city's continued support and a resolution or letter f~om the
City to be included in our application by February 27, 2004. If you have
any questions or would like additional information, please feel free to
contact me. Thank you for your cominued support.
Respectfully,
.,,~

~ POSAC Meeting January 9, 2003
A question was raised regarding soliciting donations from businesses. Beise
encouraged them to have the business designate the donation specifically for this
project.
Colleen Fuhrman, 6350 Sugar Mill Ln, asked if there was a possibility that a
gazebo could go up high on Outlot B, and the play structure down low. Faekler
reminded them that they are somewhat limited by the site itself, but he would be
bringing the plans to the next meeting. A question was raised whether or not
electricity could be added to the site. Fackler stated that that was not a problem.
Osmek reminded them that they had a $30,000 cap on this project, but that the
city would probably contribute if they went over by a $1,000.
Taylor invited those present to attend the February meeting to view the overall
plan. Beise asked Fackler to bring in some color schemes also. Beise also
reminded those present that when they are searching the web for equipment, to
bear in mind that it must be ADA compliant for public use. Fackler also
reminded them that this project probably won't be completed until the fall.
Discuss: Hi.land Park Fund Use
MOTION BY Beise to fund Highland Park out of the Park Dedication Fund.
SECONDED BY Osmek with friendly amendment that there be a spending target
of $35,000.00 for play structures. Beise accepted. MOTION CARRIED.
Faekler stated he would bring back a plan for Highland, and would appreciate a
motion by the commission to remove the current play structure at Highland.
MOTION BY Beise recommending staff remove the Highland play structure.
SECONDED BY Motyka. MOTION CARRIED.
Citizen present raised question as to how old the play structure is at Philbrook and
how the city decides which park equipment needs to be replaced when. Fackler
stated Philbrook is at least 15 years old and if they had a replacement list, it would
be the next one to be replaced after Highland. Faclder explained that Highland's
structure is over 20 years old, so it took priority for replacement. Fackler stated he
would like to see a 10-12 year replacement cycle for the equipment and asked the
citizens to call when they notice maintenance is needed.
Discuss: Park Namina
Beise recommended holding off on naming Rottlund Park, but stressed the need
to name Metro Plains, and asked for suggestions in reference to that. Osmek
stated that he would like to see it named after Frank Weiland for his 33 years of
service on the Planning Commission. Osmek stated he wanted to move this along

Subject: Resolution Approving Terms of Internal Loan
At its February 24, 2004 meeting the Mound HRA will be considering retaining consultants to
conduct preliminary fixture appraisal and relocation benefit determinations. This is in addition to
the earlier approval by the HRA to retain consultants to conduct preliminary real estate appraisals.
The HRA will be reimbursed for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with such activities
by Mound Harbor Renaissance. However, because the HRA payments to the consultants may occur
before the reimbursement, there may be situations where the HRA may look to the City to advance
the funds to make such payments pending reimbursement.
In such instances, we recommend that an Intemal Loan resolution be adopted by the City Council.
Having such a resolution in place assures that the developer can reimburse the amounts even if such
reimbursement is later characterized as a project cost and covered by tax increment.
I will be at the 2/24/04 Council Meeting if you have any questions.

2004 Retaining Wall Replacement Project
MFRA # 14707
Dear Mayor and Council Members:
City staff, along with your Financial Advisor, Jim Prosser, and myself have reviewed the City's
retaining wall replacement program and are recommending that additional money be allocated for
another project. The initial project to replace the City's deteriorating wall system was undertaken in
2002 for which improvement bonds were sold in conjunction with the West Edge Street
Improvement Project. Approximately $100,000.00 remains to be spent from that initial project.
In order to do a 429 Improvement Project and finance it through a bond sale, a minimum of 20
percent of the total cost must be assessed. Since none of the retaining wall replacement project will
be assessed, it must be tied to another project, such as the 2004 Street Reconstruction to meet this 20
percent requirement. We are looking at a retaining wall project spread over the next two years that
would cost approximately $600,000.00, of which $500,000.00 would need to be financed by a new
bond sale.
Attached for your consideration is a resolution ordering preparation of a Preliminary Report and
setting a Public Hearing for Tuesday, April 13, 2004.
If you have any questions or need additional information please contact me.
Sincerely,
MFRA

There were two add on's to the agenda.

Motion passed.
PROJECT PRESENTATIONS
All of the projects requesting funds for the next budget cycle will be
presented at the next three meetings. The budget will be voted on in
March.
Denise Eng, from Sojourner Project, talked about the domestic abuse
support group. The program is growing and challenging the space
available. They will evaluate this quarterly. There are 10 to 12 in a
group. A meal, that is some times donated, is provided at 6:00 pm. After
dinner, the children are separated from the mothers and do art projects,
play time, and tell stories. Two ECFE licensed staff conduct the child
portion of the project. The adults have group time where a significant
need is met. Women have made friendships. "It is great to see, and be a
part of, the transition that takes pace in their lives," said Denise.
She thanked the Collaborative for the dollars to help finance the group.
Referrals for the program are from word of mouth, police departments,
and churches. Sustaining it is important. Denise now has office hours in
the community on Thursdays. Call Sandy Olstad or Denise for more
information.
Kathy Jones presented the Excel Coach for 8-9 grade and the Learning
Lab for 10-12 grade students. The Learning Lab is in its first year. It
will take a year to see how this goes. The students catch up on credits
that they have lost. It is a program between the regular mainstream
class and the Alternative Learning Center. The student support person
holds the student accountable. There is not enough room for all the
students that could benefit from this program. It is a challenge to
report on a new program in the middle of the school year.
The Excel Coach is in its 2nd year. The kids that participate are very
successful. The program hand holds the students and focuses more on
family intervention. The connections have been successful.
Laura Lundberg presented the Grief Group at the high school. The group
meets once a week. The program is a partnership between the school and
Methodist Hospital. There are consistently 5 students.
All groups that presented are requesting funds. More presentations will
be done in the next two meetings.
COMMUNITY STATEMENT:
The group reviewed the proposed statement. They agreed that he last
sentence sounded threatening. It was restructured to have bullet
points.

They want to take the statement to the schools, Grandview has a
homeroom time - SAC groups.
Kathy J. suggested a formal kick off, a large group together for first
time feedback. Grand opening of the skate park might be good but too
late. Kim said that the state student survey will be coming out soon. By
next fall schools will have the raw data. It was agreed that it would be
best to have the kick off before school is out for the year.
Good transition times are fourth grade parents and seventh grade
parents are. Blanket the community, going to all small groups in a 2
week period.
Spring conferences are at the end of February and first week in March.
It was decided to hand out a beginning statement with a small survey.
Ask the question - Would you support the statement? Yes or No Why/why
not? What would you change about the statement? How should we promote
this community statement?
We need to add a brief history on how the collaborative reached this
stage and a reason for the feedback. Keep to one page on WHCC
letterhead. Give email address and let community know that they can
email responses back.
Leah will do a draft of the statement and survey and send it to all the
WHCC members. They should make any changes or suggestions in two days.
Motion to adjourn was made by Kathy Jones, seconded by JeanAnn Thayer.
Motion passed.

Lake Minnetonka Water Patrol Update: Since 2001, there has been increased Water Patrol presence on Lake
Minnetonka by adding two full-time Hennepin County Shedffs Office Patrol Deputies for five months from mid May
through mid October. In 2001 and 2002, funding of this program was 50% from Hennepin County and 50% from the
Lake Minnetonka area. In 2003, funding of this program was 100% from Hennepin County. Continuation of this
program is planned for 2004 with Hennepin County funding 100% of the program.
Lake Minnetonka Solar Light Buoy Project: For the second consecutive boat season, solar lights pumhased with
"Save the Lake" Funds were installed on top of existing red and green navigational buoys in 2003. Six areas of Lake
Minnetonka were chosen to participate in this project in 2003, up from three areas in 2002. These six areas
included: 1) two channels east of the Arcola Bridge, 2) the channel on the southeast side of Spray Island on the
Upper Lake, 3) both ends of the Narrows and Arcola Bridge channels, 4) the channel near Cedar Point East on
Wayzata Bay, 5) the channel on northeast Cooks Bay at the Emerald Lake Bridge, and 6) the channel on the west
side of Wawatasso Island on the Upper Lake. Feedback from this project in 2003 was encouraging and continuation
of this project in 2004 is likely, with the possibility of expanding it to other areas of Lake Minnetonka.
Lake Minnetonka Zebra Mussel Project: In 2002 and 2003, the LMCD worked with the Lake Minnetonka
Association (LMA) on a pilot program at selected public accesses to prevent the introduction of zebra mussels into
Lake Uinnetonka. Continuation of this program is planned for 2004, with greater emphasis on peak time inspections
at high volume public accesses. Additionally, there will be preliminary discussion in the near future of a more
comprehensive program on Lake Uinnetonka in 2005 and beyond, including increased inspection hours and
improved educational efforts. We will keep you informed on the status of this program.
2004 Lake Minnetonka Boat Density and User Attitude Surveys' Consistent with the Management Plan for Lake
Minnetonka, Boat Density and User Attitude Surveys are planned for this upcoming summer. RFP's have been sent
out, with proposals due in the LMCD office by 12 NOON on 2/12/04. LMCD staff plans on making a
recommendation at the 2/25/04 Regular LMCD Board Of Directors Meeting on which vendor to award the contract.
2004 Board Officers & Board Appointments: Discussion and elections for 2004 Board Officers took place at the
1/14/04 Regular LMCD Board Meeting. LMCD Board Officers elected for 2004 include: Tom Skramstad- Chair, Katy
Van Hercke- Vice Chair, Paul Knudsen- Treasurer, and Jose Valdesuso- Secretary. LMCD member cities
Deephaven, Minnetonka; Minnetonka Beach, OrOno, ShoreWood, and Victoria were notified this past October'that
their representative on the LMCD Board of Directors would expire at the end of January and that there was a need
to either the current Board member or appoint a new Board member, beginning with the first Regular LMCD Board
Meeting in February. Five of the six LMCD member cities re-appointed their Board member from 2003 for 2004.
Orono has appointed Debbie Halvorson to replace retired Board member Lili UcMillan as its representative on the
LMCD Board of Directors for 2004. This past December, Spdng Park appointed Tom Scanlon to fill out the
remainder of the term for retired Board member Craig Nelson.

Minutes.
The Task Force reviewed the minutes from the 7/11/03 EWM/Exotics Task ForCe meeting, with one change
proposed. Welling stated that in the fifth sentence under the first bullet point, the word "not" should be added in

Force meeting with the change proposed by Welling.
Lake Minnetonka Related Projects_
· Discussion of 2003 EWM Harvesting Program Final Report.
Nybeck made the following comments:
· The 2003 season consisted of slightly over nine weeks starting on June 12th and ending on August
13th. The 41 working days in 2003~was consistent with the 41 working days in 2002. The crew in
2003 °peiated ~ree of tl~e four LMCD harvesters, and suPplemented it'With the LMCD high-speed
transport barge, fi~e days a week f°r eight hours a day.
· The lake levels early in 2003 season were relatively high and someWhat Comparable to 2002.
H°we~er,~ ihe'lake I~vels in 2003 began ~to decreaSe in mid July co~P~redt0the lake Ieee s
increasing:in 2b~2'as the season went on. This had an impact On ~atted milfOii in 2003 and resulted
in' less ieJePh~ne CallS from the :pUblic compared to other seasons With more no~aj lake levels.
· The total amount of acreage harvested in 2003 was 436.60 compared to 711.25 in 2002. The
pdmary d fference for this reduct on was the acres comPUted in ~2003 were:dOne utilizing a GPS and
the :acres computed in.~002 were estimated by the crew supervisorS.: He belieVed ~at utilizing the
GPS !o determine acres harvested is much more accurate and t~at staff intenUstO investigate its
capabiiities for the 2004 season. The total number of. truck Icads in' 2003 was 270.75 compared to
273.75 in 2002
· Harvesting p~odties were based upon impediment.to public b0at navigation on the open water, with
higher Pdodty given to areas of the lake that were matted. A rotating harvesting schedule has been
established by the LMCD with options to be rotated every fourth yearl In 2003, the North Upper Lake
Opti°n wa~ i~P emenied
· Judd Ha~er Served his third year as Project Manager in 2003, With some changes made to the Site
SuPervisOr and AsSiStant Site Supervisor positions. An additional fNe emploYeeS Were hired to
complete the harvesting crew for 2003, adding that a number of them have expressed an interest in
returning to the program in 2004.
· Curfman TruCking and Repair, Inc. was awarded both the mechanic and trucking contracts in 2003.
The efforts made by Curfman :the past three years on the maintenance' of the e~uiPment has resulted
in improved effidency and Production each year. One area to improve prior to the 2004 season will
-558-
EWM/EXOTICS TASK FORCE, 7II103, PAGE 2
be to ensure that the used high-speed transport barge purchased prior to the 2003 season is fully
compatible with all LMCD harvesting equipment,
· There were two significanl changes made to the LMCD harvesting program fleet prior to the 2003
season. First, the LMCD reduced its number of harvesters from five to four by purchasing a new
paddlewheel harvester and the trading in of two of the original harvesters. Second, the LMCD
purchased a used high-speed transport barge this past spring from Aquarius Systems to improve the
efficiency of the program, There were a number of compatibility issues.with the used high-speed
transport barge and the remaining LMCD harvesting fleet, noting that it was difficult to quantify
whether the used high-speed transport barge improved the efficiency of the program in 2003. These
compatibility issues should be resolved for the 2004 season.
· Estimated expenses for the 2003 EWM Harvesting Program should come under budget. Through
mid November, estimated expenses for the 2003 program were approximately $90,000, compared to
the budgeted expenses of $105,000. He pointed out that there are a minimal amount of expenses
that may yet be incurred for the 2003 season.
· He thanked the various agencies for their contribution in the success of the 2003 program. He
entertained questions or comments from the Task Force members.
The Task Force briefly discussed the 2003 program and focused it attention on the used high-speed transport
barge and the compatibility problems it was having with the remaining LMCD harvesting equipment,
Review of 2003 Zebra Mussel Inspection Pro.qram Report
Nybeck asked Osgood to provide the Task Force an update on this project.
Osgood made the following comments:
· The 2003 zebra mussel inspection program was the second consecutive year that the LMA worked
with the LMCD on a pilot program on Lake Minnetonka. This Report summarizes the findings of the
2003 program and outlines critical issues for future inspection programs.
· In 2003, the LMCD and the LMA authorized spending up to $18,000 to reimburse the MN DNR for
providing additional inspectors from the MN DNR Watercraft Inspection Program to conduct the pilot
program on Lake Minnetonka. These additional inspections were conducted at the Grays Bay,
Maxwell Bay, North Arm, and Spring Park public accesses from mid May through early September, for
a total of 1,755 hours. '
· In 2003, the inspection program had problems associated with adequate coverage by inspectors
during peak pedods and holidays, citing the majority of Sundays and July 4th as examples. On these
days, there was either no coverage or inadequate coverage by inspectors, noting that this was a
frustration of the 2003 program.
· The inspectors in 2003 provided a valuable educational message and a credible inspection. The
inspectors were well received by the boaters and they reported no cases of zebra mussels found on
boats.
· In light of the recent discovery of a viable adult zebra mussel population in a Brainerd-area lake, both
the LMCD and LMA think that a more comprehensive inspection program should be considered for
Lake Minnetonka. However, a number of cdtical issues should be discussed by the LMCD and the
LMA pdor to commencing with a more comprehensive program on Lake Minnetonka in 2004 and
beyond. First, "Is there a need for a more comprehensive inspection program on Lake Minnetonka?"
If so, to what extent. Second, "Who will oversee continuation of the inspection program on Lake
Minnetonka, whether it is continuation of the existing pilot program or a more comprehensive
program?" The LMA has recommended to the LMCD that future programs be more comprehensive
and that the LMCD take the lead for this program in 2004 and beyond. Third, "What are the funding
-559-
EWM/EXOTICS TASK FORCE, 7/1103, PAGE 3
sources to continue either the existing pilot program or a more comprehensive inspection Program?"
With a more comprehensive realistically exceeding $ ~00,000 annually, the LMCD amd the LMA need
to discuss whether this is sustainable and realistic on a long-term basis. Fourth, "Who will be
conducting these inspections if the inspection program is continued on Lake Minnetonka, whether it is
continuation of the existing pilot program or a more comprehensive program?" The LMCD and LMA
could continue to use the MN DNR Watercraft Inspection Program to conduct these inspections;
however, there is concern whether this could feasible because of their inability to manage the
inspector's schedules to meet our eXpectations during the peak pedods. An alternative would be for
the LMCD and LMA to hire, train, and schedule our own inspectors to meet our expectations, adding
this would require both the LMCD and LMA to resolve a number of logistical issues prior to
commencing with it.
He entertained questions or comments from the Task Force members.
The Task Force discussed a number of aspects relating to the 2003 program and possible changes for 2004
and beyond. Some of these include:
Is it realistic to spend between $100,000 and $200,000 annually for a more comprehensive inspection
program on Lake Minnetonka?
· There was discussion of how to meet the expectations of the LMOD and LMA for peak period
inspections, yet continue to use the MN DNR Watercraft Inspection Program. The Task Force
recommended that the LMCD and LMA should schedule a meeting with Heidi Wolf in the near future
to check further into this.
· There was discussion on whether the MN DNR would be willing to change its policy inspection hours
dedicated to Lake Minnetonka by focusing more on the boats entering the Lake rather than inspecting
boats when they are. leaving the Lake.
· How would the public view inspectors at selected public accesses if the LMCD and LMA decide to
hire, train, and schedule our own inspectors rather than use inspectors from the MN DNR Watercraft
Inspection Program?
· There was discussion of the State of Minnesota mandate to conduct.20,000 hours annually on infested
waters and how funds from the MN DNR Exotic Species Program might be directed if the mandaied
hours is reduced by the state legislature in the future.
· There was discussion of the. recent zebra infestation on Lake Ossawinnamakee near B~ainerd and
what might be planned in 20041
· -There is a need to better educate the 14 member cities on the threat of a zebra muSSel infestation and
What could be expected if it occurs. One option for the LMCB Board to consider would be to levy
additional funds for this program to the 14 member cities in future LMCD budgets.
The' consensus of the Task Force was for the LMCD and the LMA to better define whether a more
comprehensive program is planned for 2004, to meet with Heidi Wolf on whether the MN BNR Watercraft
Inspection Program could be used for this comprehensive program, and report back to the Task Force at a
future meeting.
A~encv Repo~s~
Welling reported the following:
· 11 new water bodies were discovered to be infested with milfoil in 2003, raising the total to 152 within the
State of Minnesota.
· In 2003, the amount of funds available to lakes for maintenance management grants for individual lakes
was increased. Despite this, there were approximately the same number of lakes in 2003, 32, that
submitted management grant applications in 2002 for maintenance of milfoil. Of the applications
-560-
EWM/EXOTICS TASK FORCE, 7/1103, PAGE 4
submitted, 23 were approved for a total grant amount of approximately $96,000 approved, compared to
approximately $77,000 approved in 2002.
· The MN DNR haS in place a $5,000 contract with the University of Connecticut tO study hybridization and
milfoils. He believed that the work for the study 'is currently being done and he informed the TaSk Force
that he would keep them updated on this project.
· The MN DNR did not re-apply with the LCMR for funding of continued weevil research project conducted
by Dr. Newman in recent years. This decision by the MN DNR was based on their opinion that the use of
weevils as an effective operational control method for milfoil is limited. However, he pointed out that the
research conducted by Newman was credible and the Reports prepared were excellent.
Newman stated that he believed harvesting had not taken place in the research area since 1992 and he
recommended that harvesting continue to not take to see what happens in the next few years.
Vanderbosch stated that the number of phone calls he received in 2003 for milfoil was relatively light, adding that
this was consistent with the feedback from Nybeck and Welling.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
· Thomas and Janet Tallakson, variance application from LrvlCD Code for dock length requirements, side
setback requirements, and an adjusted dock use area on the south end of Carsons Bay.
Maple Hills Association, new multiple dock license and variance applications for nine Boat Storage Units
(BSU's) on 435' of continuous shoreline on the south end of Carsons Bay. The variance application is for
variance from LMCD Code for dock length requirements, side setback requirements, and an adjusted dock
use area.
Foster opened these public hearings at 7:10 p.m., adding that they should be combined because the
proposed applications are tied together. He asked for background from Nybeck.
Nybeck made the following comments:
· Thomas and Janet Tallakson, 4640 Maple Hill Drive, have submitted an application for variance from
LMCD Code dock length requirements at the site at 19420 Cottagewood Road. Mark Ruffino, a
member of the Maple Hills HOA, has submitted a new multiple dock license application and 'application
for variance from LMCD Code dock length requirements and an adjusted dock use area at 19450
Cottagewood Road. Other affected sites in the immediate area include the City of Deephaven and Jay
and Susan Goetz. The applications are hypothetical in nature, rather than factual, because they
involve land transfers that have not been finalized and require the City of Deephaven to review and
approve replats relating to these land transfers.
· At the Tallakson site, the applicants currently own approximately 185' of continuous shoreline at
elevation 929.4' at the south end of Carsons Bay (this includes all of Lot 6 and the westedy 125' of Lot
5). They currently have a dock that is 100' long that is only marginal for a small fishing boat due to
space in the immediate area and Iow water conditions. They have the option to obtain the east 15' of
Lot 7 to the west from the current site from Maple Hills Association in exchange for the transfer of the
east 100' of Lot 5 to the City of Deephaven. If this transfer occurs, it would decrease their 929.4'
shoreline to 100'. The applicants have proposed a dock that would extend 254' into the Lake from the
929.4' shoreline to store two watercraft in three side slips with dimensions of 10'x 24'. The proposed
transfer would require the City of Deephaven to replat both site lines and would possibly require a 28
degree deflection to the west from the proposed westedy side site line. The applicants have identified
cattails and water depths as particular hardships for the proposed variance.
· At the Maple Hills HOA site, the applicant represents nine homes within a homeowners association
that have had shared interest in the shoreline at the south end of Carsons Bay. They currently own
approximately 150' of continuos shoreline at the eastedy 150' of Lot 7. They currently have a dock
that is approximately 120' long and has two "U" shaped, three sided slips to store an undetermined
number of watercraft. They have the option to obtain the remainder of Lot 7, approximately 300' of
lakeshore frontage, subject to approval of the applications they have submitted. With the 15' reduction
in shoreline to.be transferred to the Tallakson site, the amount of shoreline at this site, if the transfer
occurs, would increase to 435', The applicant has proposed nine BSU's at this dock that would extend
243' into the Lake from the 929.4' shoreline, with BSU dimensions of 10'x 24'. Although this transfer
would not require a replat by the City of Deephaven, the applicant has proposed a 60 degree
deflection of the westedy side site line towards the Jay and Susan Goetz site. The applicant has
identified cattails, converging lot lines, and an unusual west side site line as particular hardships for
the proposed variance.
· Although the City of Deephaven has not submitted an application for consideration by the Board, they
currently own two sites in the immediate area that relate to the Maple Hills HOA and Tallakson
-565-
Lake Minnetonka Conservation District
Regular Board Meeting
January 14, 2004
Page 3
applications. First, Deephaven currently owns that part of Lot 7 lying westedy of the 150' of Lot 7
currently owned by Maple Hills HOA. In the proposed transfer, this approximately 300' of shoreline
would be transferred to Maple Hills HOA, subject to a payment in the amount of $29,000 by Maple
Hills HOA to the City of Deephaven. Second, Deephaven currently owns that part of Lot 5 lying
easterly of the 125' of lakeshore frontage owned by Thomas and Janet Tatlakson. In the proposed
transfer, the City of Deephaven would receive the easterly 100' of shoreline currently owned by
Thomas and Janet Tallakson.
Although no application has been submitted by Jay and Susan Goetz for consideration by the Board, it
is necessary to point out details of this site because granting the proposed Maple Hills HOA variance
would result in a significant reduction of their dock use area. This site has in excess of 300' of 929.4'
shoreline and was granted a dock length variance for a dock not to extend more than 135' from the
929.4' shoreline.
Pursuant to Code, staff advertised all three applications in the 12/30/03 edition of the Lakeshore
Weekly News. Because the applications require the Board to consider them on a hypothetical basis,
staff advertised both variance applications for variance from LMCD Code for dock length
requirements, side setback requirements, and adjusted dock use areas.
Code Section 1.02, subd. 51 defines a site as "any shoreline lot, parcel or other piece of property
legally subdivided and recorded in the office of the County Recorder". Neither the Tallakson or Maple
Hills HOA proposed sites meet the definition of "site" as legally defined by Code because the
hypothetical sites are not legally subdivided and recorded in the office of the County Recorder. The
Board historically has not considered applications unless the proposed project met this definition. He
believed that this was a fundamental question for the Board to consider and there are two alternatives
for the Board to consider. First, the Board could conclude that it would only consider applications that
meet the legal definition of the term "site" to avoid setting a precedent. Second, the Board could
decide to review the proposed applications to give the applicants a better idea of whether the Board
was inclined to approve or deny them. This would more clearly communicate to the applicants
whether they should proceed with the finalizing of the proposed land transfers and replattings.
Code Section 2.01, subd. 1 prohibits a person from using any area of the Lake outside an authorized
dock use area for docking and storage of watercraft. At the Tallakson site, the proposed 254' long
dock would exceed the 100' long authorized dock use area allowed by Code. The proposed dock and
boat storage would comply with Code for minimum side setbacks from both the easterly and westedy
side site lines, 20', subject to these site lines being platted by'the City of Deephaven so that they
extend into the Lake as proposed. If not, it appears that the proposal would require a variance from
Code for an adjusted dock use area and from minimum side setback requirements. At the Maple Hills
HOA site, the proposed 243' long dock would exceed the 100' long authorized dock use area allowed
by Code. The proposed setback of 55' from the easterly side site line would COmply with Code for
minimum side setbacks, provided this site line was replatted by the City of Deephaven so that it
extends into the Lake as proposed. The proposal would not comply with Code for minimum side
setbacks from the westerly side site line because the existing side site line diverges in front of the
proposed dock and boat storage.
Code Section 2.02 outlines watercraft storage at these sites based on the shoreline available. The
most restrictive rule is the 1:50' General Rule. One grandfathered exception to the 1:50' General Rule
allows two restricted watercraft on any site as defined by Code Section 1.02 that was in existence on
8/30/78. A second grandfathered exception allows up to four restricted watercraft at a site as defined
by Code Section 1.02, provided a number of conditions are met. These include: 1) There must be
one, and no more than. one, single family residential structure on the site, 2) The dockage dghts at the
site are owned exclusively by the lot owners of the lot parcel or other piece of property on which the
residential structure is located, and 3) All of the restricted watercraft must be owned and registered to

. the person who Five in the one residential structure. At the Tallakson site, they qualify' for either the
1:50' General Rule or the four boat grandfathered exception..At the Maple Hills. HCA site, they only
qualify for the 1:'50' General Rule.
· Code Section 1.07 allows the Board to permit a vadance from Code, with conditions.deemed
necessary, where practical difficulties or particular hardships are caused by the application of the
Code. To ensure this, the Board should apply decision standards in the review of variance
applications. These include: 1) Is the proposed use reasonable, :2) Would it be unreason able to
require conformance to the ordinance, 3) Is the difficulty of conforming to the ordinance due to
circumS~a'nces unique to the property,, 4) Is the. problem one created by the .applicant and 5) Will the
variance;~lfgranted, alter the essential character of the locality. At the Tallakson site, the vadance for
doCk length appears to be reasonable because.the particular hardships of cattails and shallow water
are conSiStent with past variances granted by the Board The Board might want to discuss whether to
approve additional variances for side setback requirements and an adjusted dock use area just in case
the City of DeCpha~/en does not approve the rep at.at this site as p.r;ep..¢sed, by the applicant. The
Board ShOUld also discuss Whether the proposed two slips, with dimensions of 10' x24', are
reasonable for this site. At the Maple Hills HCA site, the variance for dock length appears to be
reasonable because this site has similar physical features that the Tallakson site has.. However, he
expressed concern about the proposed adjusted dock usearea and the impact, it would have on Goetz
site. He suggested that a particular hardship of a converging westerly side site tine existed, however,
he questioned wl~ther a 60 degree deflect on of this side site line extension.was necessary. He
suggested that this degree of deflection could be reduced by moving the proposed dock to the east
and granting a Side'setback vadance from either one or both side site lines. The Board should also
discuss: any remedies, if any, it would like to consider for the Goetz.site because of their reduced dock
use area. AdditionallY; the Board. might want to discuss whether'the .ri :50' Genera Rule is an

In comlSilafi'ce witl~ MN DNR'General Permit 97-6098, the M~,DNR and the Cityof Deephaven were
provided a copy of the applications on 12/19/03, with com..ments due on 1/7/04. The City of
Deephaven has recommended that the Board appr0~e the applications because'the proposed plans
wei'e reviewed bY the. city coLincil at its 7/21/03 meeting and the city council demonstrated their
support for the projects, by approving a land eXchange,with both applicants. To date, staff has not
received' feedbi~ck frbm the MN DNR on the apPlications.
He believed that there were four fundamental questions for the Board to discuss prior to taking action
on the applic~!iOqs. These include.: 1) How does the Board want to consider the a,p, plications when the
sites are hypothetical rather than factual as required by LMCD Code, 2) Is the 1:50 General Rule

proposed at the Maple Hills HOA site adequate to protect the wetlands in the immediate area,
especially since the dock would extend beyond the authorized dock use area for length, 3) if the Board
is inclined to grant the variances at one or both sites, what restrictions should be placed on them
relating to the number of boats, the size of boats, and the length of boats, and 4) How does the Board
want to apply the subjective criteria to the applications,, especially the reference to "LMCD watercraft
density classification criteria", since Carsons Bay is a= critically dense by applying the 1974 Boat
Density Policy Statement.
He entertained question or comments from the Board.
BabCock suggested that the Code provision relating to meandering shoreline might apply to these sites and
could be considered by the Board in review of the applications.
Nybeck stated that the Code provision referred to by Babcock was in the multiple dock license section of the
Code and that it would apply to either applications for new facilities or for an expansion of an existing multiple
dock facility
LeFevere stated that there is a Code provision that allows the Board to consider adjusting the amount of
usable shoreline when the meandering 929.4' shoreline exceeds 125 pement of the Straight4ine
measurement from the two side site lines where they intersect elevation 929.4'.
Seuntjens asked for clarification,on What adjacent deVelopment existed in the immediate area.
Nybeck stated that the development in the area was primarily existing homes, adding that he was unaware of
any future homes to be constructed in the,near future. On the east side of CarSOnS BaY, the shoreline is
o~ed bY DeePhaVen all the Way up to Minnetonka Blvd. and is more commonly knownas BUrton Pa~'k.
Seuntjens stated that it appeared the dock at the Goetz site exceeded the 135' alloWed in,the apprOVed
variance order,
\
Cann ng stated that it appeared that the proposed projects are extending to a relatively :small area of Open
water, He aSked what the likelihood would be for this area of open water to be enlarged, citing dredging as ·
one Poss'ibility
FOSter stated that he believed this would be unlikely based on his past experience With the MN DNR. and the
MCWD because they would prefer to have a seasonal dock extended over vegetation rather than the removal
of vegetat on ~
McMillan asked Foster for clarification on what existed currently in Burton Park and what might be planned in
the future.
Foster· Stated that he believed the City of Deephaven supported the proposed projects because it WoUld add
shoreline to Burton Park and the land transferred to Maple Hills HOA would add revenue to the general
benefit of its residents. It is currently primady a wetland area, with Walking paths, and he was unaware'of any
changes to it in the near future, ~
Nelson stated that one dynamic of wetland areas is that they grow Over time and he questioned whether an
application to amend what was being proposed would be required in the future.

Valdesuso asked for clarification on how far out the docks would need to extend to reach a water depth of
three or four feet,
Nybeck stated that water depth measurements were taken and documented by the appliCant. At the
proposed dock length, .water depths range anywhere between four feet and six and one hatf feet. One aspect
to keep in mind in reviewing the applications isthat the docks generally need the proposed lengths because
the vegetation is generally continuous in front of these sites.
Van Hercke asked the Board how they felt about discussing the applications because they are hypothetical
rather than factUal.
Foster stated that he was comfortable with discussing the applications because the Board has done this in the
past, citing the redevelopment of Cochranes Boatyard asan examPle. In this example, he recalled a'
sign ficant amount of work. was conducted by the Board, inClUding an ordinance amendment, and the site was
not platted by the City of Greenwood. In this case, the Board approved the applications, sUbject to meeting a
number of conditions.
Nybeck stated at the Cochranes Boatyard site, there was a significant amount of work conducted by the
Board, including an ordinance amendment relating to COnversion of use. HoWever, there are distinct
differences because the redevelopment project at Cochranes Boatyard site on St. Albans Bay for the
townhomes already existed and the multiple dock license application that was ultimately approved'Was
submitted after the ordinance amendment was adopted by the Board.
LeFevere stated that one primary difference between the applicants Sites and the Cochranes Boatyards site
was that the Coc,.hranes Boatyard site en St. Alberts Bay wasa plat~ed site and it met th~ definition of"site".
Babcock stated that inthe redevelopment of the Cochranes B°atyard site, either OWnership or contrO~ of the
site.was under the developer.
Van Hercke stated that she raised this point because them are a number df factors that the Board ShOuld take
into consideration with the proposed projects, including wetlands in the immediate area and docking in a
critiCally ~lense bay based on the 1974 policy. She questioned whether the Board would' like'to take the time
to discuss the proposed projects, when it is unclear whether they will actually happen, because the land
transfers and replatings by the City of Deephaven have not OcCurred.
Valdesuso stated that he supported considering the applications because the land transfers and relattings
might not occur unless the applications receive a favorable review and aPproval by the Board.
Babcock stated that he believed Van Hercke raised a valid point and that he was unaware of lhe' Board
considering an application when the applicant did not have either ownership or control of the property, He
believed that the applibations opens up the Board to disci.issing a number of hy~Otheticals un~l~i: the guise of
an applicat On Submitted, He stated that he would pl~efer'that the property trAhsa~ti°ns be comPl~ted'~d
transf~rred,:.with the sites lines established and legally r egigtered, pdOr tothe BOard spending a sighjfi'~ant
amount of time. One option for the Board to consider would be to continue the public hearings until the land
issues have been resolved so that they meet the definition of "site".
Van Hercke questioned whether considering an application that was hypothetical was an efficient use of
Board time.

Foster stated that he would like to get feedback input this evening at the public hearing since there were a
number of interested parties in attendance to comment on the proposed applications.
McMillan stated that there are some creative aspects to the proposed applications, citing the land transfers as
one example. Based on the existing 1974 policy and the fact that Carsons Bay is critically dense based on
applying the indices, she suggested that the Board should discuss this and how to deal with the Creative land
transfer as proposed. She expressed concern about the proposal to extend docks further into the bay than
the current docks and the increase in the number of watercraft to be stored at these sites.
Babcock concurred with the comments of McMIIlan and he suggested that the Board should discuss the
fundamental question raised by Nybeck on "Whether the 1:50' General Rule proposed at the Maple Hills HOA
site is adequate to protect the wetlands in the immediate area, especially since the dock would extend beyond
the authorized dock use are for length". He indicated that it was not uncommon for the Board not to grant full
Code allowances for boat storage if the dock was not contained within the authorized dock use area for
length.
Mr. Tom Tallakson, 4640 Maple Hill Drive, provided a historical background of the area. His parents owned
10 acres of land on the south end of Carsons Bay since the 1940's and they were good steward of the land.
He and his wife currently own the home that they have lived in since 1968, with 185' of lakeshore frontage,
and have utilized the existing dock for the storage of a small fishing boat because of the limitations in the
area, including the wetlands and the height of the bridge. The height of the bridge has increased slightly with
the new reconstruction of it and he and his wife would like to better utilize the Lake. He entertained questions
or comments from the Board.
Foster asked Tallakson if he was aware of much additional clearance existed at the new bridge.
Tallakson stated that he believed the clearance of the bddge was anywhere between five and one half and six
feet, noting that there are still limitations on the size and type of boat that can navigate under it. In 1977, ten
acres were platted into nine lots, with each of them having a one ninth interest in the 150' of lakeshore
frontage at Lot 7. At that time, the future use of Lot 7 was not known and they did not consider LMCD rules
and regulations relating to boat storage. If he had known in 1977 what he knows now, he would have
implemented what has been proposed at this time then. In July of 2003, the City of Deephaven approved the
request for land transfers in the area. They have worked on this project for around the last 18 months with the
LMCD and the City of Deephaven to develop a plan that is practical to the community and environmentally
friendly for all parties involved, and he believed it seems reasonable. He recommended that the Board
approve the variance request at his site and the applications submitted for the Maple Hills HOA site.
Babcock stated that it appears there are two channels that lead into the existing Tallakson dock. He asked
Mr. Tallakson which channel he uses to access the Lake.
Tallakson stated that he uses both channels, noting that they have water depths of approximately four feet.
Other uses of these channels include canoeing, kayaking, and fishing. This was taken into consideration with
the propoSed dock, although it might cause some problems with the eastedy channel.
Nelson asked Tallakson if he had observed a change in the wetlands in the area since he had resided there.

Tallakson stated that there had been some changes to the wetland area in the past 36 years, although they
have not been that dramatic,
Mr. Ed Towey, 4635 Maple Hill DdVe, stated that he would speak on behalf of Maple Hills HCA. He made the
following comments:
· A number of options have been looked into with LMCD and City of Deephaven staff, including the 125
percent shoreline measurement and whether dredging Should be looked into as an altemativ~ to
longer docks.
· He expressed concern about the comment in the staff memo that the applicationS a e hypothet cai,
adding that he believed this was an over technical analysis of the Code. Although the land transfers
have not been totally completed, the City of Deephaven would like this to happen and'he believed that
the replattings would be reviewed and approved bY them. The propOSed variance foi- dOck length at
both sites would be consistent with other docks in the immediate area, and they have attempted to
minimize the number of variances necessary.
· The. proposed adjusted dockuse area variance'would iriVolve a 60 degree deflection of the westerly
side site line to the west because the existing side site line converges in front of the dock. The
abutting property to the west has approximately 300' of 929.4' lakeshore frontage and the proposed
adjusteddock use area would not impact their ability tO expand their dock:in thb future and meet
required side setback requirements from this adjrusted side site line.
· He expressed concern about the staff anal,Y, siS of criti'¢al density-on carsons Bay. The use of the back
part CarsOns. Bay was relativelY li'rnited until recently and he questioned whetherit was inClUded in the
original analysis in the 1974 policy. Because of this'i' TOwey reviewed an ahalysis prepared by the
applicants for this part of Carsons Bay Utilizing the.'indices in the 1974 poliCy, noting that none of them
were either met or exceeded.
· He entertained questions or comments from the Board.
Babcock asked Towey if he had a conversation with the MN DNR regarding dredging in the .immediate area,
Towey stated thmthey,had not cohtaCted the MN DNR regarding dredging because LMCD staff indicated that
the MN DNR or the MCWD would not be likely to approve'it.
Foster stated, that his undei'standing of the Policy Of~the MN DNR and the MCWD waS to allow docks to
extend over wetland areas Cather than dredging into them.
Van Hercke as'ked TOwey if he was suggesting that this site was not on Carsons Bay..
Towey clarified that. he questioned Whether this part of Cars0ns Bay Was ever Part of the statistical base
established in 1974.
Nybeck stated that he.had looked at the 1974 policy and he could not conclude either way whether the back
bay was originally included in the statistical analysis. Because of this,, he forwarded the st.atistica! analysis
that was forwarded to the Lake Minnetonka Boat Density Sub. Cdmmittee, If the Board would like to further
discuss the analysis Prepared by MaPle Hills HCA for the back bay separately, he indicated that he would
need the applicants'to provide further details to Confirm their analysis.
Van Hercke asked Towey how manY boats are.being stored at the existing docks.

· Page 9
Towey stated that two boats are boats being stored at the existing Maple Hills HCA dock and one boat is
being stored at the Tallakson dock.
Mr. Mark Klesk, 19860 Cottagewood Road, stated that the Goetz's were not in attendance and they have
some feeling regarding the applications. He believed that property owners who pay property taxes for
lakbshore frontage Shou'ld have sOme form of access to the Lake. There has been some discussion of
density on Carsons Bay arid there has been discussion by the City of Deephaven about possibly expanding
its dOCking pr~gram to BUr[On Park in the future. He suggested that the app icat ons could set a precedent for
a future application from the City of Deephaven to expand its municipal docking program in this area, although
he did not oppose the applicat ons.
Seuntjens asked Mr. KleSk if he was aware of the Goetzs' feelings on the proposal to adjust the common lot
line 60 degrees that they woUld have with Maple Hills HcA,
Klesk stated that Mr, Goetz was disappointed that he could not attend this meeting and that he did not want to
speak on' his behalf. He SuggeSted that it might make sense to allow the Goetzs to be heard from prior to the
Board taking action on the applications.
Seuntjens asked Nybeck if he was aware of the Goetzs' feelings on this.
Nybeck stated that the Goetzs were not involved in any of the meetings held in the office. He indicated that
he had not heard directly from the Goetzs on this; however, he understood that they have some concerns
abOUt the proposed adjusted dock use area.
Towey stated that the Goetzs were first contacted when the proposed plan was forwarded to the City of
Deephaven. A member of the Map'le Hills HCA, Mark Ruffino, has talked to them a few times and they
communicated to the Deephaven City Council that they have ecological and environmental concerns,
Foster stated that Mr. GOetz had contacted him and h~ expressed his disappointment that he was unable to
attend this meeting. HbSuggeSted that the Public headng could be continued so that the..Goetzs could
provide their comments on the applicat Ons.
Seuntjens askedTowey if Maple Hills HCA had considered an adjusted dock use area variance that would
not require a 60 degree deflection.
Toweystated that' if the Board was inclined to redUce the deflection of the westerly side site line, it might also
approve a side setl~ack varian'be, He in'dicated that he would not be troubled with that.
Seuntjens stated that he believed there are ways to minimize the impact on the Goetz site by relocating the
dock at the Maple Hills HCA site within the propOSed'do~k~use area fOr this site.
Babcock concurred,With Seuntjens, adding another option at the Maple Hills HCA site would be to utilize the
existing docks as part. of'the plan. When docks extend out beyond the authorized dock use area, he believed
that the' regulations.relatihg to length and denSity are at'the discretion of the Board.
Mr. Walter Faster, 4717 Maple Hill Ddve, stated that the City.of Deephaven has reviewed the proposed plan
and would like to see it happen, because it would increase their' tax base. He recommended that the Board
consider approving the hypothetical, with conditions deemed necessary, because it would become factual

with an approval bythe Board. There are ten residences that have been paying taxes on this land and there
is currently an opportunity to utilize this land more effectively. He enCOuraged' the Board to endorse and
approve the applications.
McMillan stated that the City of Orono does not alloW for outtot situations similar to this. Orono has the largest
amount of shoreline on Lake Minnetonka and has had many opportunities to approve outlots for similar
situations. She pointed this Out because there are more reStrictive cities around Lake Minnetonka and that
theOity of Orono has lost out on increasing its tax base by not allowing outlots,
Mr. Mark Ruffino, 4645 Maple Hill Ddve, stated they had had worked very hard on the proposal and that the
first meeting with LMCD staff was on 7/11/02. He respected the opinions of the Goetzs on the proposal and
they were repeatedly invited to attend monthly homeowners association meetings., They also were provided a
survey approximately one year ago to get their input, WhiCh was the recommendation of staff.
MOTION: Babcock moved, Seuntjens seconded to continue the Public headngs to the 2/11/04 Regular LMCD
Board Meeting to get input from the Goetzs on the applications.
VOTE: Motion carried unanimously.
The meeting was recessed at 8:36 p.m. and re-convened at 8:40 p.m.
· Miles Canning;: vadance application from LMCD Code for side setback requirements and an adjusted dock
use area at 21100 Excelsior Blvd. on St. Albans Bay.
Foster opened the pubtid.heating at 8:4OP.m. and asked for background from Nybeck.
Nybeck made the following comments:
· At the 11/12/03 Regular Meeting, the Board received a.[equest ;from .Miles Cann ng tobdng a vadance
apPlication out of'~6'¥ji:es that ~as:vVi'~ia:ri y ~ithdrawn' irj 200~i.' The. BOard approved a motion at
that meeting that stat~ ~the follOWing: 'i'i' to allow the ~060'.'canning variance.application to be brought
out fl'.om the file, 2) to require' Canning to re-submit a ~50 {ee :tot a new refundable deposit, and 3) to
require Canning to submit new address labels for properties within a350' radius from the site as
required bY Cod~.
· in July of 2000, Miles and Pamela Canning submitted an application for variance from Code for Side
setback requirements and an adjusted dock use area,~ with particular hardships of eonverging lot lines
and reduCtiOn Of"~iioreline due to 'landfill of a agoon. Based on the otter submitted with the 2000
application, fie'eXact i%atiori· and nuT§er'of watercraft to be stored at the dock was unclear.
Additionally, staff recommended that add tional survey work was needed for the Board to adequately
review the vadance aPPlicatiOn, espe~[bil~ if it woU!~ requirean adjusted dock use area to vedfy the
impact on the abuttlng tieighbot(s)"i During the pUbliC h~adng, the applicants cladfied that they were
proposing to locate the dock as far as possible to the w~st and that they would store one 2.1.5' long
po~At00'n on the eaSt side of:the d~cg?it:h'a ~bealm of 9~;;.' The BOard 'ultimately approved a motion to
refer the variance' appliCa!ion· back (d~ staff to a I°w Board members .Bert Foster and Sheldon Wart to
mediate a soluti6~ that w~id be agreeable toalI Parties. On 9/25/00, a letter was received from the
applicants stating that they h~d decided to withdraw.the variance application.

Submitted a letter, dated 11/7/(~:~i amending the 2000 variance application. The amendments include:

1) to adjust the easterly side site line so that it parallels the westerly side site line, 2) to relocate the
placement of the 56' long dock so that it abuts the easterly side site line rather than the westerly side
site as proposed in 2000, and 3) to store two boats on the west side of the dock rather than the one
boat proposed on the east side of the dock in 2000.
Pursuant to Code, the public headng was advertised in the 12/30/03 edition of the Lakeshore Weekly
News. Additionally, staff has notified the abutting neighbors that approval of an adjusted dock use
area variance might impact their docking rights and privileges established by Code. The names of
these neighbors are Rick and Debbie O'Gara to the west and Jason and Molly Johnson to the east.
Code Section 2.01, subd. 1 prohibits a person from using any area of the Lake outside an authorized
dock use area for docking and storage of watercraft. Similar to 2000, it was difficult for staff to
determine the exact location of the proposed dock and boat storage because the survey submitted did
not depict the 2003 proposed changes. This has been communicated to the applicants and they were
given a deadline of 1/7/04 to have updated survey work addressing this. Updated survey work has
been submitted; however, some details are still missing on it. From a common sense standpoint, the
proposed docking would not comply with minimum side setback requirements for this site, five feet
from both extended side site lines. This would allow for the placement of a dock and storage of
watercraft within a two foot wide dock use area on a 12' wide lot with parallel site lines. The proposed
dock is contained within the authorized dock use area for length at this site.
Code Section 1.07 allows the Board to permit a vadance from Code, with conditions deemed
necessary, where practical difficulties or particular hardships are caused by the application of Code.
The Board has approved three variances in the past that have some similarities to the Canning
variance application. These include: 1) Thomas and Roma Stocks- side setback variance approved in.
1983 for a 20' wide site on Halsteads Bay, 2) George and Cheryl Fougeron- side setback and adjusted
dock use area variances approved in 2000 for a 25' wide site in a lagoon off of Harrisons Bay, and 3)
Fred and Michelle Pacovsky- dock length and adjusted dock use area variances approved in 2002 for
a 27' wide site in Maxwell Bay. The Board should apply the following decision standards in the review
of the application: 1) Is the proposed use reasonable, 2) Would it be unreasonable to require
conformance to the ordinance, 3) Is the difficulty of conforming to the ordinance due to circumstances
unique to the property, 4) Is the problem one created by the applicant, and 5) Will the variance, if
granted, alter the essential character of the locality.
He made four comments relating to the variance applicatio~ utilizing these decision standards. First,
some aspects of the variance application are not reasonable, including the storage of two watercraft at
the proposed dock. If the Board is inclined to approve some form of a variance, the number of
watercraft should be restricted to one and the Board should further considering restricting the size of
the watercraft and possibly the length of the dock. Second, he questioned whether the particular
hardships of converging lot line and reduced lakeshore frontage are caused by the application of the
Code. More appropriate particular hardships for this site include a substandard platted lot and
extremely small dock use area. Third, the placement of a dock and storage of watercraft within the
authorized dock use area would be nearly impossible. There are two options for the applicants to
consider that would not require a variance from Code. One of these options is combining their
shoreline with the abutting properties and installing one single dock for these properties, keeping in
mind that the storage of five or more watercraft at this dock would require a multiple dock license. The
second option is installing a dock and storing of watercraft outside of their authorized dock use area by
securing mutual consent from either one neighbor or both abutting neighbors. Fourth, it is nearly
impossible for the Board to determine whether approval of the proposed variance application,
especially the adjusted dock use area, would alter the essential character of the locality or cause an
unreasonable burden on the adjacent properties, because of details lacking on the survey. This has
been communicated to the applicants and they have submitted additional survey work, adding that he

believed they would address this dudng the testimony during the public hearing. The adjusted dock
use area that has been proposed would primarily impact the abutting neighbors to the east, Jason and
Molly Johnson. If the Board is inclined to approve an adjusted doCk use area, it should also consider
reducing the dock equally with the abutting neighbors to the west, Rick and Debbie O'Gara.
· In compliance .with MN DNR General Permit 97-6098, the MN DN'R and the City of Greenwood were
provided a.copy of the application on 12/19/03, with comments due on 1/7/04. The: Oity of Greenwood
stated that they had no comment on the application and no feedback haS.been received from the MN
DNR. There are a number of comments from residents from the City of Greenwood in the packet and
handou! fo ders
· He beleved that there were. four fundamental questions for the Board 'to diScuSs prior to taking action
on the application. First, Has the applicant provided sufficient documer~tatiOn on the survey for the
Board to make a decision based on. the facts? Documentation requested bY staff that the applicants
have not provided on the survey include the exact location' and length of t~e dock, th~ location and
size of boats to be stored at the d ack; and the angle of deflection of the,'sit~,lihe proPOSed for the
adjusted easterly side site line. Second, How does the Board feel abbut granting variances from
Code, at narrow sites like this, on a lakewide basis for the storage of watercraft? Third, If the Board is
inclined to grant such variances, what restrictions should be placed on them relating to the number of
boats, the size of boats, the length of the dock, etc.? Fourth, If the approVed variance requires an
adjusted dock use are, how much impact can be reasonably sustained by either of the abutting
neighbor(s) and what types of relief shou d be considered by the Board?
· He entertained questions or comments from the Boar&
Seuntjens asked Nybeck. ifhe was aware of wh an the lagoon area was filled in,
Nybeck stated that he believed it occurred.around :the 1960's; however; he' believed the applicants and
residents in the immediate area might.be able to respond to.,this more accurately.
Se,.un,tjens asked Nybeck if there were docks installed on the'sites to the west of the O'GaraS', adding they
appeared to be relatively narrow, He suggested that he believed it woUld be beneficial to have these lots
documented on the survey work
NybeCk siated there are docks installed, at the properties to the west of the O'Gara's'.
Seuntjer~s stated that there appears to be a.lot on the south'side of the filled in lagoon area that might have
previously had dpar an rights.
Nyb~ck Stated that lot was'currently owned by Morton Lent and that it has an easement agreement for
dockihg purpOseS'at the Johnson site,
Nelson questioned,whether the variance application was within the guidelines.of the BOard action this past
November because the number of boats proposed in 2000, one, has been increased to two boats in the
amended application.
Foster asked for comments from the applicants, pointing out that Miles Canning was a member of the LMCD
Board of Directors and that. he .had stepped down from the Board during this agenda item.
Mr, Miles canning, 21100 Excelsior Blvd., made the following comments:
-575-

Page 13
· He has lived on Lake Minnetonka at this site for approximately 14 years and he has had reasonable
access dudng that time, In fact, this site has had a dock for the storage of one or more watercraft for
decades.
· He stated that he would like to take the lagoon landfill as a particular hardship off the table for
discussion and consideration .by the Board because he questioned whether it was relevant.
· Docking and watercraft storage at this site does not have the ability to meet the standards of LMCD
Code. The house and docking preceded the LMCD. The justification for variance from Code was a
grandfathering situation, and he and his wife were seeking to maintain what they have historically had.
· He stated that he had learned a great deaf relating to his 12' of lakeshOre frontage, including that the
water is owned by the public, that he had a site that met the definition of Code, and that this site had
riparian rights.
· He requested to amend his revised variance application to limit the number of watercraft to be stored
at the dock to his pontoon boat. He stated that he would also like to' discuss 'the placement of the dock
within his 12' wide dock use area and that he was prepared to address the updated survey work that
was recommended by Nybeck and requested by some Board members.
· The granting of the vadance application would in essence memorialize the history of dock placement
and boat storage at this site, This.would be a benefit to the neighb°rhood because it woUld be more
clearly defined. He acknowledged that there has been some discussion at the neighborhood
regarding property values, adding that he had similar concems to ensure his investment. The LMCD
was created to provide, equitable, fair, and reasonable access to Lake and he encouraged the Board
to not include maximizing property values for the abutting property owners in its decision process. He
believed that his existing access to the lake was fair and equitable.
· He provided an overview of the updated survey work that documented the proposed adjusted dock
use area and the impacts on the adjacent properties. It dOcumented 48' long and 56' long dOCk use
areas for this site, adding that he believed that either option would minimize the impact on the abutting
neighbors.
· He entertained questions or comments from the Board.
Babcock asked Canning to clarify where he proposed to locate the dock and store the watercraft on the
updated survey work.
Canning stated that the dock would need to be placed along either of the extended side site lines with the
boat stored on the .other side within the dock use .area, adding that he would be agreeable to either option. In
theamended variance application, he stated that he proposed to place the doCk along the easterly adjusted
side site line extension and ~store the boat on the west side of the dock.
Seuntjens asked Canning if he was aware of the water depth at the end of the 56' long dock.
Canning estimated that water depth at 56'. would be approximately five feet of water depth, adding that he has
proposed a 48' long dock option in the updated survey work and that this would reach the four foot water
depth standard.
Van Hercke asked Canning how far out the dock of the abutting property owners extend into the Lake.
Canning stated that both property owners were in attendance and that it might be more appropriate for them
to comment on that.question.

Babcock stated that the term grandfathering was typically used when the Board makes a facility non-
conforming because of adoption of an ordinance. When the BOard adopts Such an ordinandel the Board can
allow the existing use to continue or the affected sites could be required to comply With the new ordinance
immediately. In the Canning case, the existing dock and storage of a watercraft has been legal by existing
Code because of the provision that allows it to occur through mutual consent of the abutting neighbor(s). He
recognized that mutual consent has changed over the years and he questioned whether the term of
grandfathedng at this site was appropriate.
Foster stated that he believed any justification for a vadancefrom Code at this site would be converging side
site lines rather than grandfathering, He expressed concern about granting a variance as a long-term solution
at a site where docking and watercraft storage was only allowed through mutual consent of the abutting
neighbor(s).
Knudsen asked when the side setback requirements in the Code came into existence.
Nybeck stated that the majority of side setback requirements in the. Code were adopted in 1970,
Seuntjens stated that converging side site lines and overlapping dock use areas at the aPplicants' and
abutting properties should be taken into consideration by the Board.
Babcock stated that the O'Garas have suggested that the Cannings could store a boat at their dock. He
asked Canning to cOmment on this.
Canning stated that was an option for him and his wife to'consider; however, he believed that the variance
application could stand on its.own without requiring.consent from the abutting neighbor(s).
Mr. Jason Johnson, 5600 Maple Heights Road, made the following comments:
· He and his wife have lived at the abutting property to the east for approximately six years and they
have serious concerns about the proposed variance because of the impacts it would have on their
dock ,us~ area if approved. He pointed out that Board. member Valdesuso was the previous property
owner at the applicants' site.
· He and his wife have tried to accommodate the Cannings and other neighbors to reach an acceptable
situation fo!' docking in the neighborhood. Their dock was installed in 2003t0 minimize the impact on
their abu~ng.property to their east to. comply with Code side setback reqL~irements.
· There was testimony presented by Canning :regarding ~preserving pro~tty Values of the abutting
neighbors. However, he pointed'out that he believed the Cannings were proposing to presetVetheir
property values through the variance application.
· He and his wife. have an.easement'since the t990's to their dock to the Morion Lent property:
Because of this property, Mr. Lent has access to the west side of the dock and they use the east side
of the do~k, He expressed concern that the proposed dock plan would essentiallY.limit how they have
installed a dock historically. Because the Oa'nning'~dOck encroached into their docl~ use erea in 2003,
Mr. Lent has filed legal action against them and they believe they do not have adequate' SpaCe: to
utilize their east side of the dock. He pointed out that only two boats could only be stored at this
currently; however, this could possibly be changed in the future if the easement were to be changed or
to go away.
· If the proposed variance were granted, it Would allow for a dock and Watercraft storage that would be
wider than the 929.4' shoreline at the Canning site and it would not alloW him a dock that he can
access. He pointed out that the dock has never be installed as proposed and that it would have even
-577-

Page l5
a greater impact than it has had o!~ his dock use area in past years. Hiscurrent dock installation is
installed 60' out from their 40' of 929.4' shoreline, and the proposal would not allow him to store a boat
on both sides of the dock,
A number of Board members discussed whether the Johnsons actually needed a 60' long dock or if boat
watercraft COUld be Stored on the same side of the dock if a 60' long dock were installed.
Johnson continued his comments:
· He stated that storing boats back to back on the same side of the dock would be problematic, because
it WoOld not be consistent with the easement agreement, the water depths are relatively shallow in the
area, and there would need to be adequate space for maneuvering purposes for the front boat at the
dock.
· He expressed concem that approval ofthe proposed variance would financially benefit the Canning
site by limiting the use of'the dock use area of the abutting neighbors on both sides, He stated that he
did not believe grandfathedng was appropriate as proposed by Canning, adding that their property
was platted, in 1908, and predates.the platting of the Canning property.
· H~ did not believe that the particular hardship of converging side site lines was appropriate because
the Canning site has less than 12' of lakeshore frontage and it would nearly impossible to place a dock
and store a watercraft at it within the side site line extensions, even if they are adjusted so that they
are parallel as extended into the Lake. The variances included in the packet by staff had greater
amounts of shoreline and were able to meet some side setback requirement, which is not the case in
the prOposed variance application,
· He entertained questions or comments from the Board.
Mr. Richard O'Gara, 21120 Excelsior Blvd., made the following comments:
· He stated that he and wife resided at the abutting property to the west from the Cannings'. They
purchased the property this, past March~ This site has 40' of 929.4' lakeshore frontage and 'has
con~erging~::.~.~..~ side site,~: lines, although they do not converge as. much as the cannings' site.
· In 2003, the :Canning dock was. installed pdor to their dock. and it was problematic b~cause it Was
installed along the wester y extended s de site' line and the pontoon boat was Stored on the west side
of the dock. Although this did not comply with Code, this was not disputed forthe 2003 season but it
needs to be solved for the 2004 season.
· He stated tha~ he,had a "H" shaped, dock installed in 2003 tO:Store a 27~ long watercraft and a Personal
watercraft. Based on discussions with staff, it appeared that the dock installed in 2003 was too long,
80', and he communicated that this would be addressed in future seasons. He indicated that he had a
thir.,d. watercraftthat was 35' in length that he stored at a commercial fa~;ility in EXcelsior bbdause of the
limitations of the dock use area at this site.
,, They have offered the Cannings the option to dock their boat at the O'Gara dock; however, the
proposed variance application would resulHn the legal taking of their dock use area because it would
significantly reduce it, espec ally if the adjusted dock use area was shared wis :,both abuttin~
neighbom,. He ndicated.that he would not be OPposed to grahting the cannings va¢ianCe f~0rn Code
for side setback requirements, as long as it maintains the dock use area that he and his wife believed
that they recently purchased, especially since they have a limited amount of shoreline.
· He entertained questions or comments from the Board.
Babcock asked O'Gara how he dealt with the narrow sites on the west side of his Site,
-578-

O'Gara stated that the Richters own the adjacent site immediately to their west. Both sites generally have
similar dock use areas and there has been discussion about installing one dock for both sites for a single
common dock in 2004.
Mr. Craig OIson, 5580 Maple Heights Road, stated that he had the abutting property to the east of the
Johnsons'. He expressed concern that the variance application could possibly reduce the dock use area at
his site,
Mr. Brad Richter, 21150 Excelsior Blvd., stated that he owned the abutting property to the west of the
O'Garas'. He and his wife moved in about one month after the O'Garas' and they felt the pinch of the dock
use concerns in the neighborhood in 2003. This site has 20' of lakeshore frontage, with parallel side site line
extensions, and the dock length installed in 2003 was 72'. He stated that the abutting property to the west
was owned by Dan Reece and that they had a relatively good neighbor relationship.
Mr. Dan Reece, 21170 Excelsior Blvd., stated that he owned the abutting property to the west of Richters'.
He has owned this site for approximately 18 years and that both his and the Richters' docks are placed along
the common side site line for these two sites. He indicated that he hoped the Cannings would be able to get a
dock and boat of some nature if it does not result in an impact on the immediate abutting properties. Their
dock installed in 2003 was 64' in length.
Nelson asked Reece if there had been discussions at the neighborhood about a multi-use dock at the
properties in question.
Reece stated that this had not been discussed with the current residents. However, he shared a dock with a
previous property owner of the Richters',
Canning clarified that he was requesting the Board to grant him access to the Lake from the dock he currently
has. The dock is 40" in width and the length of his pontoon was 21.5', with an eight foot beam. He believed
that it would be reasonable to reduce the length of the proposed dock from 56' to 48', and he encouraged the
Board to grant some form of the relief to the abutting properties, especially the Johnsons'.
Nelson stated that in the testimony received from Mr. Johnson, it appears that the proposed plan would move
the dock. He suggested that it might make more sense to not move the existing dock to what he has
proposed.
Canning stated that he would be agreeable to maintaining the existing dock at its current location and parking
the pontoon on the east side of the dock.
Foster stated that the Board in the past has mediated dock use area variance for sites with similar
circumstances. This would require updated drawings highlighting the side site lines and the dock and boat
storage for all of the sites involved. He suggested that the Board could pursue this option if it was interested.
Mr. Gale Stead~ 21600 Fairview Street, asked if the 60 day rule applied to the Canning variance application.
Babcock stated that the 60 day rule applies to the Canning variance application and that the LiVICD can
request a 60 day extension, without consent of the applicant. The Board must take action on the proposed
application within 120 days, unlesS the applicants agree to an extension of time.

There being no further comments, Foster closed the public hearing at 10:16 p.m. He asked for feedback or
questions from the Board on how to proceed with the variance application.
Skramstad stated, that he was an adVocate of continuing to alloW a proPerty to use the Lake that it has
historically used, He acknowledged that this might require working With the appliCant and the neighbors to
make this happen.
Babcock stated that there was a Code provision that encourages residents at narrow sites to combine docks
and mutually consent to non-compliant side setbacks at the rieighborhood level. Because of these Code
Sections, this results in docking at these SituatiOn s complying with Code Without BOard action.. He suggested
that this Code provision might be discoU.~'age if the Board uses mutual consent arrangements as a de facto
standard for granting a variance from Code. He recommended that vadance from Code needs to be granted
based on a particular hardship rather than the fact that docking and watercraft storage has always been done
a certain way. In the Canning vadance application, the Board should ensure that a particular hardship exists
because of the application of the Code.
Burma concurred with the comments of Babcock. He recognized that there was a particular hardship at both
the Cannings' and O'Garas' sites because of converging side site lines. Variances from Code should be
granted to alleviate hardship; however, there is an alternative in this situation. There appears to be a
significant amount of cooperation in this area and he suggested that this should be done at the neighborhood
level rather than the granting of a'variance.
McMillan stated that.she generally concurred with the commenis of Burma. If the Cannings would like the
Board to legally define a' vadance from Code, she believed that this could be re atively restricted to what could
be placed at the site. The size of the boat stored at the dock at this site is magnified because it has less than
12' of lakeshore frontage.
Nelson stated that although this and other sites in the immediate area are rather narrow because they were
platted many years ago for cabins or smaller homes, the problem is that there is a greater demand for larger
boats, Because of this, he believed the recommendation to place unusual ~'estdctions on the size of the boat
to be stored at the Canning; and. posSibly other sites in the immediate area, might better define what
cOnstitutes reasonable access:' He~ also ~uggested that historical use does not make:Sen~e becaUSe property
owners need.to conductan investigation int,'the rules and regulations for dockihg and Water~i~a~.Prior to
purchasing a property on Lake Minnetorika.
Seuntjens stated that he was generally in favor of reasonable access for sites in the immediate area of the
variance application.. There appear to be a number ofsites, including the 'Carining sitel which are pushing the
envelope.and havecontdbUted to the problems in this area.
Babcock stated that he' believed the Code took into consideration setback requirements for narrow sites like
these, noting the Code has become more restrictive over the years. He believed that an important question
for the Board to discuss was Whether a property owner who Purchased le~s than 12' of lakeshore frontage
well after adoption of side seth'ack ~egulations should-haVe'the abilitY to negatively impact abutting sites that
pdmadly have sufficient shoreline to' Stand on their own. To the best of his knoWledge, the Board has never
granted a variance from Code for sites that have less than 20' of shoreline. There r~ight be some sites on
Lake Minnetonka that are not wide enough to support boat storage from them and there might be a need to
draw a line.

Nelson asked Valdesuso how he worked out the issues at the site when he resided them.
Valdesuso stated that he bought the property in 1984 and that the neighbors got along well at that time. He
stored two boats at that time, including a 24' long boat, and he agreed with the comments of Skramstad that
the property Owner should be able to use the site for the storage of a watercraft, with restrictions deemed
neceSSary bY the Board.
Burma stated that the traditional use of this site has been a privilege rather than a legal right. He expressed
cOncern about the' Board granting a variance from Code to make permanent what has been allowed
historically oniy ~d~use ~here has been consent at the neighborhood level. He reminded the Board that
O'Gara has offered the Cannings to.store their pontoon at the doCk through a shared dock.
Van HerCke stated that, she believed it was the responsibility of a property owner to check into what. they am
entitled tO based om rules and regulations when purchasing a property, She expressed support for
neighborhood cooperation; however, she was concerned about granting a vadanCe from Code at a narrow
site that has primarily been considered legal because of mutual consent,
Foster stated that them am converging side site lines at this site that cteady qualifY as a particular hardship
for a variance from Code. This site'has dparian rights; however, the .extent of these rights is notclear based
on eXisting laws anddocking COuld be done in a variety of ways. In this case, he stated that he was troubled
with the Converging lot lines and overlapping dock use ames 48' and 56' into the Lake. Because of this, a
mom restrictive dock use ama of 20' to 24' might make mom sense and this would not prohibit the applicant
from using the mutual consent allowances in Code, as long at they. do not use aspects of the apprOved
variance. He stated that he Would be troubled with the Board making a decision with ~Nater depth readings at
the applicants~ and nea~Y:~ites ,
Knudsen stated that he agreed with Skramstad and Valdesuso that this site should have the ability to place a
dock and store a watercraft The question he had was what would be reasonable,
Seuntjens questioned' Whether the proPoSed dock and beam width of the pontoon boat could be stored in the

Fbster Stated he believed them are a number of options for the Board to consider when reviewing the
Canning ~vaiianCe'~Pii~i~ti6n.~ m~eSe include grant the variance as proposed and reduce the dock use area of
the Johnsons, deny the variance application, or come up with a compromise somewhere in between. The last

Mr. Don Anderson~ legal ~ou~se. for. t.he Johnson, updated the Boa~ that.Mr, Lent has told his clients that he

The Board discussed'this matter and the consensus of the Board was that the easement granted by the
Johnsons to the Lent property was a self-imposed problem that is out of the scope of the LMCD. The Board

further discussed this and the conSensus was to allow Foster to work with Cannings, Johnsons, and O'Garas
to investigate whether a win-win solution could be worked out and agreed to by all parties. A couple options
discussed for Foster to mediate with the neighborhood were a madne railway system or a slide type structure.
The Board directed Canning to get water depths in the immediate area prior to meeting at the neighborhood
level.
WATER STRUCTURES
C. Howards Point Marina, discussion on whether there is a need to schedule a public hearing relating to
their 2004 renewal without change application for multiple dock license, commercial dock, and launching
ramp.
Foster asked LeFevere for background on this agenda item.
LeFevere stated that Howards Point Madna has submitted its renewal without change application for
2004. They submitted additional launching ramp information with this application and they have stated
that watercraft are being stored on trailers in the parking lot, however, these watercraft do not use the
launching ramp at the facility any differently than those that use the launching ramp on a daily basis. If
the Board concludes that this facility is an off-lake storage facility because the parking of these trailered
boats are used in conjunction with the launching ramp, there are a number of alternatives to consider.
Two of these alternatives include denying the 2004 renewal application or denying approval of the
launching ramp at the facility, with both of these cases requiring the scheduling of a public hearing. A
public hearing would be scheduled to allow the Board to discuss the various actions and to allow Howards
Point Madna to state their case, prior to the Board making a decision on their 2004 renewal application.
Babcock questioned whether denial of the 2004 renewal without change application would have the same
effect as a license revocation, suspension, or the imposition of additional conditions. Although this Board
action might not require a public hearing, he stated that he would not be opposed to scheduling one if this
was the direction the Board proceeded with,
LeFevere stated that the denial of the renewal application would have the same affect as a revocation
and that Howards Point Marina would need to be provided due process, which would include the
scheduling of a public hearing.
Seuntjens stated that he believed that violations relating to unauthorized off-lake storage activities are
occurring based on testimony of the neighborhood, inspections conducted by staff, and the fact that there
is a tractor at the facility to move trailered boats around. He believed that because violations have
occurred in past seasons, the Board needs to discuss how to proceed, and a public hearing should be
scheduled.
Canning questioned whether the Board could approve the renewal application for watemrafl stored in the
water for 2004 and not approve the launching ramp, subject to Howards Point Marina proving that they
are not using the launch ramp for the launching of the trailered boats stored in the parking lot.
Foster stated that he believed Howards Point Marina has claimed that these trailered boats are using the
launch ramp under the same conditions that those watercraft that are launched on a daily basis. He
believed there are some subjective means for madna facilities to store customer boats off-site and launch
them at their request, citing storage sheds within five to 10 miles of Lake Minnetonka as an example.

Babcock stated that he believed the intent of the ordinance relating, to off-lake storage was to prohibit the
parking of the trailered boats in conjunction with their launching ramp. If this is not clearly communicated
in the existing ordinance, it might require the Board to consider an ordinance amendment.
McMillan stated that she believed there are distinct differences between daily launching of boats and the
launching of boats at a facility that are stored in a parking lot on an overnight basis. She suggested that
the City of Shorewood might have some regulations relating to this storage that might be valuable.
Babcock stated that the remote storage facilities might have to be examined by the Board in the future if
launching from the facilities uses existing public access facilities and the goal of 700 quality car/trailer
spaces that meet the standards are attained.
Foster asked if there was consensus on the Board that Howards Point Madna cannot store boats on
trailers and launch them through their launch ramp, which might require the Board to not approve their
launch ramp. This might require further clarification of the existing ordinance for off-lake storage or an
ordinance amendment.
McMillan stated that she believed the launching of trailered boats through the launching ramp at Howards
Point Madna qualifies as off-lake storage based on the existing ordinance. She questioned whether
further regulating their launch ramp was the best means to address this.
Foster stated that the LMCD has the ability to regulate activities at a number of the commercial facilities
because they have launch ramps. The LMCD does not currently regulate this type of launching activities
at the public launch ramps; however, this could possibly be changed in the future.
Babcock stated that restricting public launch access to an agreed upon level is already occurring at
Bryant Lake, which is managed by the Three Rivers Park District, and the State of Wisconsin.
McMillan stated that she would like to better understand what the
immediate area of Howards Point Marina were comfortable with.
Howards Point Madna alternatives to consider as long as they do
City of Shorewood and residents in the
She indicated that she would like to give
not violate LMCD Code.
Babcock stated that he believed the pdmary problem at Howards Point Madna was the boats being stored
on trailers overnight and that is what should be focused on. He added that he believed Howards Point
Marina needs to choose between stodng boats on trailers and launching of boats, not both.
Foster stated that he recalled there was some interest by some Board members regarding the possible
approval of a reduced number of off-lake storage spaces that were proposed by Howards Point Marina.
He recalled that Howards Point Madna was not interested in a reduced number of off-lake storage spaces
when the application that they submitted was being considered by the Board.
Mr. Richard Baker, 5235 Howards Point Road, stated that in December of 1987, a letter was received
from Frank Mixa, LMCD Executive Director, regarding drystacking. Howards Point Madna asked if the
activity occurring at that time qualified as a drystacking facility, adding that Mixa reported that it was not.
Because of this interpretation by Uixa, Howards Point Madna missed out on the grandfathering
opportunity in 1987. For the next 15 yeas, Frank Mixa, Gene Strommen, and subsequent LMCD staff
conducted inspections and no drystacking activity was reported. Then in 2002 or 2003, inspections were
conducted by LMCD staff for the same activity and it was reported as drystacking. He question why this
-583-

Regular Board Meeting
January 14, 2004
Page21
interpretation has changed and that all Howards Point Madna has requested for 2004 is to approve what
has occurred at this facility since 1977, including 45 slips and 13 slides.
Foster stated that he was sympathetic to the interpretation by Mixa that the activity being conducted by
Howards Point Marina was not drystacking. However, based on photographic evidence back to around
the grandfather date of 1987, it appears that there were only a few boats drystacking at that time. He
stated that he would not be opposed to possibly back licensing and grandfathedng back to the 1987 the
level of off-lake storage activities that was happening at that time.
Baker stated that the City of Shorewood has'a map on file of 38 parking spots from 1980, He pointed out
that the City of Shorewood would prefer the storage of Shorewood resident boats in this lot rather than
parking of these boats in the streets.
Skramstad stated that he had seen the same file in the City of Shorewood that has a map of Howards
Point Marina identifying 38 parking spots.
Nybeck addressed comments raised by Mr. Baker. Frank Mixa retired as the Executive Director in t987
and his successor, Gene Strommen, resigned in 1995. Staff cannot confirm what was actually inspected
by Mixa and Strommen because they both have passed away. Subsequent inspections up until the 2002
did not include an evaluation of the trailered boat activity in the east parking lot because all that was
licensed was in the water and staff did not check out the east parking lot. Pdor to the 2002 season, the
Board pointed out that off-lake storage activity might be occurring in the east parking lot and that was the
reason why staff checked it out. The map that was referred to in the City of Shorewood file was a hand
drawn map that stated 38 spaces without reference to off-lake storage.
Skramstad stated that the 1980 drawing was hand drawn and it does clearly cladfy whether these 38
parking spots are for cars or trailered boats.
Nybeck pointed out that during the 2003 multiple dock license inspection he conducted with Board
member Skramstad, approximately 30 off-lake storage spaces were observed. This is significantly less
than the 38 off lake storage spaces that were denied by the Board. The primary reason this agenda item
was Scheduled was that if the Board decides to schedule a public headng, staff should be directed to do
publish for the first available Board meeting because of the 60 day rule.
Foster asked if Howards Point Marina has made an application for off-lake storage.
LeFevere stated that Howards Point Marina does not need to apply for off-lake storage. The launch ramp
at the Howards Point Marina needs have an application submitted annually for renewal and it either
meets or does not meet the definition of off-lake storage. If the storage of boats is being used in
conjunction with the launch ramp, the Board could determined that it meets the definition of off-lake
storage.
Foster asked Skramstad if he had any suggestions on how the Board should proceed with the Howards
Point Marina renewal application.
Skramstad stated that he was hopeful that there was an opportunity to grandfather a reduced number of
spaces, possibly 17 or 18. It is unfortunate that the interpretation was provided by Mixa and that this
-584-
Lake Minnetonka Conservation District
Regular Board Meeting
January 14, 2004
Page 22
activity was not observed during subsequent inspections, The activity at Howards Point Marina appears
to be off-fake storage and he was hopeful that there would a solution to res°tve this.
LeFevere stated that the Board should conclude whether the trailered boats being stored in the east
parking lot qualifies as off-lake storage. If the Board concludes that the trailer boats being stored in the
east parking lot does not qualify as off-lake storage, the Board could approve the 2004 renewal without
change application and remove the condition from their license that makes reference to off-lake storage.
A number of Board members indicated that they believed that the Board made the decision that it
qualifies as off-lake storage when it denied the application submitted by Howards Point Marina.
LeFevere stated that the LMCD could have already initiated criminal or civil proceeding against Howards
Point Marina. The Board has previously decided that it would be beneficial to receive additional
information from Howards Point Marina on how to respond to it in 2004. The information has been
provided by Howards Point Marina and the Board should respond to it.
Baker stated that he believed grandfathering of off-lake storage could not have taken place in 1988
because the Executive Director a.t that time had concluded that the activity occurring at Howards Point
Madna was not drystacking. Because of the change in the interpretation that the activity is now
considered drystacking, he questioned whether Howards Point Marina could be grandfathered because
he did not recall this discussed at the Board level.
LeFevere stated that he recalled that legal counsel for Howards Point Marina discussed grandfathering
extensively.
Van Hercke concurred with the comment of LeFevere and she recalled there was a discussion of a
reduced number of off-lake storage spaces, possibly 15.
LeFevere stated that the application submitted by Howards Point Marina to grandfather and back license
a specific number of off-lake storage spaces was one of four options presented to them. Howards Point
Marina submitted an application utilizing this option and the Board ultimately denied it. Whether Frank
Mixa'Or Gene Strommen interpreted the activity as has been proposed by Howards Point Marina cannot
be substantiated because they have both passed away. The Board cannot recreate what was reviewed
by staff at that time and what information Howards Point Marina provided at that time. The best that could
have occurred at the time the grandfathering occurred was to grandfather what was in Use at that time.
The Board continued to discuss whether to conduct a public hearing for the 2004 Howards Point Madna
renewal application for their multiple dock license and launch ramp. There was no consensus by the
Board on this matter; however, there was some general consensus on the possibility of the applicant
submitting an application for a reduced number of off-lake spaces that existed in 1987 and was consistent.
with evidence available. Howards Point Marina was encouraged by some Board members to get together
with Board member Skramstad and staff to further check into this.

Seuntens stated that the Nominating Committee had meet to discuss recommendations for 2004 LMCD

January 19, 2004
Dear Members and Friends,
There are many new and exciting things happening here at the Gillespie Center. In addition to our new classes
that began in January, there are plans for new additions in February. Check out this newsletter and you may find
something just for you. If not, let us know. We love new ideas and really want to have the programs and activities that
serve our membership. Here are some of the happenings since our last newsletter:
Can you believe that our new sign was delivered and up-an-running in time for holiday greetings and for
advertising the Holiday Gathering on January 3~. We have had so many comments about it. The best one came
from Tom Rockvam, who called after seeing it for the fu--st time and said that it "was the best thing since paved
streets in Mound." Linda Dynan, our Rental Coordinator, can attest that she has received so many calls about
rentals just in the short time that it has been up there. The Gillespie Board will be addressing the chore of setting
guidelines for the use of the sign. You can imagine how many requests we will receive.
Both of our last fundraising efforts proved to be successful. When the final tally came in on the Boutique, we
found that we cleared about $1t,000 which was about the same as last year. We have already set next year's
dates for our 10~' Holiday Boutique.
Our 2~a Annual Holiday Gathering (Prime Rib Dinner) also proved to be very successful. We are so grateful to all
of you who came and particularly to those of you who gathered friends and family to fill a whole table. Our
profits were close to $2,500 and we all had so much fun doing it. Many thanks to the following who worked on
the dinner and did it so graciously and kindly: Jerry and Diana Kohls, Don and Betsy Kohls, Jerry and Sandy
Henke, Leah Weycker, Jeanne Englund, Gene Partyka, Gert Frevert, Gerry Dodds, Sean and Deb Bailey, Carla
and Kyle Bailey, Molly Bailey, Shannon Jensen, Lisa Bendike, Nora and Dave Swanson, Cathy Caho, Cheryl
Fischer, Tom and Kathy Rockvam, Rose Brutm, Ronnie Henke, Matt Wood and Jack Weist. We have a list of
things that we will try to improve on for next year and encourage ideas from any of you who attended.
We have received a generous offer from Wells Fargo staff, Robin Eller, for any of our members who have Wells
Fargo accounts and would like to Iearn to access their account from either their computer or the ones at the
Center. Beginning in February, she will be here at the Center from 10 to 11 am on Thursday mornings and she
will teach you how to bring up your account and what the bank sees. Thanks to Wells Fargo for this "cutting-
edge" offer. There will be a sign up for appointments at the reception desk,
As we look out of the windows at the Center, we can see the new vacant property next door. The house is gone;
the garage will soon come down and with the robins in the spring will come the beginning process of a new
parking lot. The greatest news of the month is that we are only $4,430 from our $150,000 goal to pay for the
property. We know that there will be additional costs with the paving, but we'll deal with that when it comes.
We would like to thank all of our members for their confidence in our Gillespie Center by belonging,
participating, volunteering, donating and obviously keeping us in their prayers. We feel our blessing every day!
HAPPY VALENTINE DA Y FROM YOUR GILLESPIE CENTER

Reasonable Municipal Regulation (ARMR),
this group is pursuing legislation this
session to:
Procurement bill up in House
committee
Next week the House Local Government &
Metropolitan Affairs Committee will hear
HF 1717 (Lanning)/SF 1790 (Dibble), a
procurement reform bill supported by the
League and other local government groups.
1. Further change eminent domain laws to
protect property owners;
2. Allow non-conforming uses to continue
even if damaged;
3. Limit moratoriums to one year; and
4. Ensure that fees are directly related to a
need created by a proposed project.
HF 1717 updates municipal contracting
laws to give local units of government more
flexibility, allow greater use of technology,
and minimize burdensome requirements.
The bill authorizes municipalities to use
reverse auctions to purchase supplies,
materials, and equipment and clarifies that
local governments may accept bids and
quotes electronically. The proposal also
increases the competitive bidding threshold
for small municipalities and gives managers
in plan B cities greater flexibility to make
purchases and negotiate contracts. These
changes will provide additional tools to
help local governments operate more
efficiently and reduce their purchasing
costs.
The bill will be heard in committee on
Tuesday, February l0th at 2:30 p.m. in room
200, State Office Building.
First of four land use bills introduced
A coalition of various business groups
recently formed to challenge municipal land
The first of these four proposals, HF 1901
(Paulsen), was introduced this week. The
bill would allow a court to award attorney
fees to a landowner if the damage award
exceeds either the condemning authority's
original offer or the amount deposited with
the court by 20 percent or more. It would
also require primary necessity before
property may be taken for public purpose.
HF 1901 is schedUled for a hearing in the
House Civil Law Committee on
Wednesday, February 11th at 2:30 p.m. in
room 10, State Office Building.
TEL bill pulled from Senate tax
agenda
Late this week, the tax and expenditure
limits (TEL) bill authored by Senator
Michelle Bachmann was pulled from the
Senate Tax Committee agenda apparently
because a delete-all amendment was not
ready.
As introduced, Senator Bachmann's
proposal would amend the state's

increases of the state and local units of
government to the rate of inflation plus
population or tax base growth. If taxes
increased faster than the formula limit, the
law would require that the excess be
automatically rebated to taxpayers. The
League has raised concerns with legislators
about the potential unintended
consequences of the Bachmann proposal
such as replacing council discretion with an
inflexible formula.

enacting a local sales tax and criteria for
evaluating local proposals.
The report recommends a number of
significant additions to the current approval
process including a proposed change that
would allow residents in surrounding
communities that will pay a large share of
the sales tax to participate in the
referendum. The report suggests that this
broader referendum would help establish
the regional nature of proposed projects.
The expected delete-all amendment may
attempt to limit the scope of the proposal to
the state while exempting local units of
government. However, given the fact that
more than half of the state budget is
distributed to schools and another
significant proportion is shared with cities
and counties to help fund their services,
limits to the state could have a severe and
immediate financial impact every other
level of government in the state.
Alternatively, severe state limits could
result in a flood of unfunded state mandates
to local units of government.
Hearings on local sales tax study
announced
The recently released Department of
Revenue study of local sales taxes will be
heard in the Serrate on Tuesday morning
and in the House on Thursday morning.
The report reviews the history of local sales
taxes in Minnesota and makes a number of
recommendations related to the appropriate
role of local sales taxes, the process of
Legislation reflecting the Department's
recommendations has not been introduced
and therefore, the hearings are largely
informational. We will report on the
hearings in an upcoming Cities Bulletin.
House to take up bonding for local
roads and bridges
The House Transportation Finance
Committee plans to begin discussing
bonding provisions pertaining to local roads
and bridges. On Tuesday, February 10, at
8:15 am in room 200 of the State Office
Building, the committee will hear HF1850
(Swenson), which authorizes $125 million
in local road improvement program bonds,
abolishes authority to use program money
for loans and establishes a rural road safety
program in the local road improvement
fund as well as HF1849 (Ruth), which
authorizes $83.5 million in state
transportation bonds for local bridge
replacement, rehabilitation, and repair.

A weekly legislative update from the League of Minnesota Cities
ARMR bill #1 advances, others up
next week
The eminent domain piece of the ARMR proposal,
HF 1901, (Rep. Ei'ik Paulsen R-Eden Prairie)
passed out of the House Civil Law Committee
late Wednesday afternoon. ARMR is a recently
formed group known as the Alliance for Reasonable
Municipal Regulation and includes among others
the MN Auto Dealers Association, the Outdoor
Advertising Association, the MN Realtors
Association, the MN Retailers Association, the
Builders Association of Minnesota and the Builders
Association of the Twin Cities.
The small bit of good news is that testimony before
the Committee, including testimony by the League
of Cities, raised several concerns and the
Committee action was to move the bill to the
Transportation Committee without a
recommendation. Rep. Kuisle, who chairs the
House Transportation Committee, has
expressed concerns about the implications for land
acquisition costs for road projects under the Paulsen
bill.
For unknown reasons, the referral of HF 1901 to the
Transportation Committee was subsequently
changed on the House floor on Thursday to refer
the bill to the Local Government Committee. If the
bill survives that Committee, we expect it to
eventually end up in the Transportation Committee.
February 13, 2004
Page 1
HF 2021(Rep. Mark Buesgens, R-Jordan) would
eliminate the current provision that allows a city to
extend a building moratorium up to an additional 18
months. The non-conforming use bill, HF 2057
(Rep. Ron Abram..% R-Minnetonka) would repeal
the damage threshold that currently prevents a
property owner from rebuilding a non-conforming
use where more than 50 percent of its market value
is destroyed by fire or other peril. The bill would
also allow the owner of a non-conforming use to
"Improve, replace or restore" a non-conforming use.
Currently, the law only allows repair or
maintenance of a non-conforming property,.
Although these bills will have far-reaching
implications for cities, the bills appear to be in
response to a few isolated events. The League will
be testifying in opposition to each of these bills. If
you have any thoughts on these bills, please contact
Gary Carlson at (651) 281-1255.
Senate votes to lower threshold for
DWI
On a vote of 4g-18, the full Senate passed a bill,
SF 58 (Sen. Foley-DFL, Coon Rapids), to reduce
the blood-alcohol limit for driving from the current
.10 percent to .08 percent. While the bill has yet to
get a hearing in the House, the Senate vote signifies
a major shift in support for the threshold reduction.
As recently as 2001, the Senate defeated the
proposa 1.
The other three pieces of the ARMR
proposal were introduced in the House on Thursday
and will be heard at 2:30 pm next Tuesday
afternoon in the House Local Government
Committee. HF 2103 (Rep. Carla Nelson, R-
Rochester) would regulate planning and zoning fees
and dedications by requiring local units of
government to prepare a statement of need and
reasonableness for fee increases as well as
demonstrate a "direct and essential nexus" between
the fee or dedication and the need created by the
project.
Pressure to pass the .08 law was driven not only by
traffic safety advocates, but also by a federal
mandate. Minnesota stands to lose $100 million in
federal transportation funds if the standard is not
applied by August 1, 2007.
The House companion, HF 97 (Rep. Strachan, R-
Farmington), has not yet been scheduled for a
hearing.

Ms. Kandis Hanson
Mound City Manager
Dear Ms. Hanson,
February 4, 2004
The following is provided to you from a request of Councilman Osmek for me as the
Lion's Club representative to give the results of "hot dog" sales last summer during
Music In The Park events.
The original request was for: profit will be split between Life Guard Account with
Community Ed and the Northwest Tonka Lions Admin. Fund. There were five (5) events
in the park and the Casco Point Night Out. Jubilee Foods provided their cooking cart and
we purchased products sold from them. Jubilee was paid in full after each event. Profits
were turned in to Community Ed and the Club after each event. There was $210.09 profit
total turned over to the Community Education Dept. and $200. to the Lions Club.
The $210.09 would maybe pay for one or two days of lifeguard expense so Community
Ed will decide, the disposition of the money. I will recommend to them that it go towards
a Life Guard Account for 2005 or be applied to the Music In The Park program costs for
2004.
It is undetermined at this time if the Northwest Tonka Lions will sell again this summer
as they did last summer but assumed if they do the Transient Merchant License fee would.
be waived. ,O~--

Address is
March 10
PuNic is invited
Hennepin County Board Chair
Randy Johnson will deliver the
2004 State of the County
Address Wednesday, March 10,
at Hennepin County Medical
Center's Pillsbury' Auditorium
in downtown M~neapolis.
The 2 p.rm address will deal
with the challenges facing the
county in the coming year, as
well a~ Hennepin's recent
accomplishments.
Board approves 2004 budget
The Hennepin County Board has approved a 2004
county budget of $1.64 billion, which results in an
overall expenditure decrease of 3.43 percent from 2003.
The 2004 net property tax levy is $495.6 million, an
increase of 2.1 percent - the smallest increase in the past
decade.
The budget is largely driven by actions taken by the
2003 Minnesota Legislatu.te, which reduced or
eliminated funding for a variety~of county programs and
reduced property tax relief to local governments.
Hennepin took steps last year to address the loss of stare
funding, including a $27-miJlion reduction for 2003 and
an early retirement-reaignation incentive program to
reduce the number of future layoffs (392 staff members
left county employment by September).
The 2003 reductions set the stage for fl.u'ther reductions
this year. County Administration directed departments
to submit 2004 budgets that totaled $73 million less
than then 2003 adjnsted budgets. Administration's 2004
budget proposal induded redncfions across a~
departments. The largest reductions were proposed in
the Health, Human Services and Criminal Justice lines
of business - areas where the state made the most
substantial cuts.
Most of the proposed program reductions were approved
by the County Board although it restored $4.7 million
in human services and $I.9 million in public safety
programs.
Here are some of the ways Hennepin responded to its
budget challenge in the 2004 budget:
· Additional property taxes to support Hennepin
County Medical Center operations.
~ Although there is an overall reduction of about $36
million in human services primarily because of state
cuts, continued county support for human services
with a 2 percent increase in property taxes over 2003.
· The merger of six departments into a single Human
Services Department.
· Additional property tax support for the budgets of the
County Attorney, Public Defender and Sheriff's
Offices.
· Redesign of the Community Corrections Department,
including placing more probation officers in the
neighborhoods.
