Those pr¢s,¢n: were; Ac:in9 Mayor Pinky Charon, 60uncilmcmbcrs Jessen, Paulsen, and Peterson. Mayor Polston arrived at 8:35 P.M. Also present were: City Manager Jori Elam, City Attorney Curt Pearson, City Planner'Mark Koegler, Finance Directoc Sharon Legg, City Clerk Fran Clark. The following members of the HRA were present: Eldo Schmidt, Jim Regan, Joe Berge, Bob McClellan, Helen Eugster and HRA Director for 2020 Commerce Blvd. Ed Richter. Acti~ng Mayor Charon opened the meeting and welcomed the HRA members. The City Manager explained that the City has received a.proposal for tax increment financing and the meeting'tonight is to go over the HRA's' roles and responsibilities in a tax increment financing district. The steps.taken so far are 1) the development of policies and 2) the designation of a priority area. City Planner Mark Koegler explained that tax increment financing is an enabling tool given to cities to clear land and develop a specific area. It is a funding technique that utilizes increases in assessed valuation and property taxes attributed to redevelopment to pay for public redevelop- ment costs. Tax increment financing may be used to provide'public funds for: 1) the redevelopment or'rehabilitation of deteriorated areas of the City; 2) assistance to facilitate the construction of low-moderate income housing; 3) the. promotion of economic development.and the provision of emplOyment.opportunities in the City. The.difference in the assessed valuation and tax revenues generated by the property within-the district after new construction has occurred complared with the assessed valuation and amount of tax revenues generated by the property pdior to the establishment of the tax increment is called the tax increment. This difference in assessed valuation and tax revenues.is determined'annually and is used to repay indebtedness or.current development costs. The City Planner then briefly went Over the proposed Town ~quare project explaining that it is in a very preliminary phase. City Attorney Curt Pearson explained the two empowering Statutes. 1. Mi.nnesota Statutes Chapter 462.411,'Minnesota HOusing and Redevelopment Authority Act - allows up to 25 years to pay off bonds and charges the HRA with administering the project. 2. Minnesota Statutes Chapter 472A.0l, Municipal'Development District Act - allows up to 10 years to pay off bonds and charges the municipal governing body with administering the project. If the project falls under Chapter 462.411 the HRA would have to develop a redevelopment plan and a TIF plan which would show that the plan will work. The HRA's roles would be: July 20, 1983 1. acquiring property; 2. putting development agreement together; 3. preparing a redevelopment contract with the businesses involved. Ther& was discussion on the length of time the Town Square people want to use tax increment. .' There was discussion on setting.up a separate advisory committee to work on 2020 Commerce only. The City Manager assured the HRA that the City Staff would work with them on a tax increment project. The HRA members asked various questions on tax increment financing and the procedures that would be followed. Mayor Polston stated that the Council and the Staff wants the HP~A to work with the City on developing this and that all should base the decision on facts. , The HRA stated-they would like' to think about tax increment and decide if some of the members would rather be on an advisory committee for 2020 Commerce and not become involved with tax increment, in which case some of the HRA members would have to be replaced.' ..

While a number of re-uSes appear both suitable and marketable for this site, on the basis of our preliminary analysis we have concluded that it may be particularly appropriate for higher quality upper-medium density residential redevelopment. We base this initial finding on the site's lake-front loca- tion, its close proximity to shopping and major transporta- tion arterials, and the fact that it is situated within an area of significant growth in the Metropolitan area. If this "predominently residential" concept were to be fur- ther developed, it might also include ancillary uses includ- ing recreational and special commercial that complement the housing component. Having reached conceptual agreement on this approach with the Trolly Boat Center consortium, Kraus-Anderson is now prepared to undertake a more detailed study of this site's potential, including a site analysis and preliminary design, preliminary construction budgets, pro formas and financing plans, and exploration of available financing mechanisms with local lenders. 523 South Eighth Street · Minneapolis, Minnesota 55404 * (612) 332-1241 Trolly Boat Center Page 2 July 19, 1983 Our interest in pursuing this development concept further, however, is predicated~ on the availability of city parti- cipation in the project' and a more definitive survey of the primary market area which we have preliminarily defined as the City of Mound and the surrounding areas made up of Minnetresta, Minnetonka Beach, Orono, and Spring Park. We would, therefore, appreciate the opportunity to explore with you the prospects of a preliminary agreement with the City of Mound wherein our development team, at its own ex- pense, would immediately proceed on the work items described above while the City, simultaneously, 'would: 1. Designate our group as developer of this site. Undertake a tax increment feasibility study for this site. Commission a consultant to undertake and complete the housing market survey described above. We would ask that Kraus-Anderson be a participant in both the consultant selection process and in the drafting of the scope of work to insure that the final product is sufficient to form the basis for a marketing program. Similarly, it would be our intention to share the information we develop with the City as it is generated. Our experience has been that the prospects of a successful development program of the type contemplated here are greatly enhanced when we work from the outset on the basis of a joint venture with the city leadership, and we believe the format suggested above would be a solid first step in establishing such a relationship. Thank you for any consideration this request may merit, and we'll look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, KRAUS-ANDERSON REALTY COMPANY VINCENT M. COUGHLIN Project Manager M.L. Buzz Sycks G.E.

Coughlin Project Manager Kraus-Anderson Realty Company 523 South Eighth Street Minneapolis, MN. 55404 Dear Mr. Coughlin: Thank you for your letter of interest in working with and in the City of Mound. ! think your ideas for residential development are good and seem to be ratified by a recent response we've gotten from a questionaire we put in the local newspaper. You have requested that the City do basically three things to help move your project along. The first would be tO designate your group as the developer of the site. I don't think the Council would have a problem doing this, but the City should receive something from the Street Car Boat Center representatives telling the City that they are in agreement with this and designate you as the official project contact. Since we have an existing option agreement with the Street Car Boat Center, this would designate you as the representative for that agreement also. This is probably self-evident but at least it keeps the records straight as to who is who. Following the official designation, we should have a meeting to spell out in greater detail items two and three. I am planning to be out'of the office next week, but the next Council Meeting is scheduled for August 9th when we could act on. the designation. If you could complete the task outlined above by.August 4th, that should move the plan along. Thank you again for your interest.

L. (Buzz) Sycks, William R. Koenig, Mr. Kaye Westerlund, and Bud Stannard have been working for the past three years to create a viable development proposal for the so-called Trolley Boat Center site, an irregularly-shaped parcel in the southeast quadrant of the intersection of Cypress Lane and CoUnty Road 15 in the City of Mound. More recently, we have involved the construction-development firm of t(raus-Anderson in this effort and have now reached conceptual agreement with them on both the nature of the development and the joint venture of the project. You were advised of these developments in a letter from I<raus-Anderson dated July 19, 1983. In your response to Mr. Coughlin of I<raus-Anderson of July 22, 1983, you indicated that "the City should receive something from the Streetcar Boat Center's representatives telling the City that they are in agreement with this (concept) and designate you as the official project contact." Please be advised that we concur with the approach outlined in Kraus-Anderson's letter of July 19, 1983 and hereby designate Mr. Coughlin as a project contact. In addition however, we would ask that an matters and communications should also be shared with Mr. M. L. (Buzz) Sycks, 5900 Beachwood Road, Mound. It is the intention of our group to work with Kraus-Anderson over the next few months to refine and formalize the joint venture agreement between the parties simultaneous with the pre-development activities outlined in Mr. Coughlin's letter. /???

Since then, as the previous item of tonights agenda points out, a new devel- opment strategy is being proposed that may make this back-up strategy unneces- sary. Because of that I am suggesting that we table the idea of submitting a LAWCON application for this year, but instead perhaps keep the wetlands development plan on file and attempt to implement it through the City's Park Dedication requirements as a part of the Kraus-Anderson development. The timing may be right, the cost reasonable (about $70,000) and public support very high (recent survey results) to move on a wetlands beautification and access strategy. Please realize that the plan covers all of our land, but at this point I am only suggesting the wetlands portion be looked into.

Hortsch 5226 Lynwood Boulevard Mound, MN. Phone: 371-4958 The applicant, Mr. Hortsch, is requesting to add a second story over an'.existlng garage foundation (built 1971) and to do structural foundation repairs to his existing house wall. The storm of July 3rd took the roof off of the garage. Pursuant to the Zoning Code Section 23.403 "A lot of record in a residential district may be used for single-family detached dwelling purposes provided the area thereof meets all setback and minimum'lot area requirements of this Ordinance, provided: (1) it has frontage on an improved public right-of-way. (2) it was under separate ownership from abutting lands upon or prior to the effec- tive date of this Ordinance." Section 23.404(7) states, "Normal maintenance of a building or other structure con- taining or related to a lawful non-conforming use is permitted, including necessary nonstructural repairs and incidental alterations which do not extend or intensify the non-conforming use." Mr. Hortsch does intend to expand the living area and do structural repairs..to the home. Recommend: I feel Mr. Hortsch could look into purchasing the vacant land to the south as it is presently for sale by Tonka Toys. Possibly the flooded Morton Lane may be improved someday when Tonka no long discharges water into this area. Technically, Mr. Hortsch does front on a right-of-way, but it is not improved. Mr. Hortsch could have his request granted to afford him reasonable use of his property. Abutting neighbors have been notified. Suggested date for referral to City Council is August 9th.

I do not feel that it is necessary to repeat the request except to mention the existing detached garage structure has non-conforming setbacks. Pursuant to the Zoning Code Section 23.408(7) In all districts, the principal struc- tures shall be 50'feet or more from the mean high water line (929.5 sea level) when the property is abutting a lake or stream. No structure, except decks and piers shall be placed at an elevation such that the lowest floor, including base' ment floors, is less than three feet above the highest known water level (933.5 sea level). If the property and commons exceed the lakeshore setback, a 15 fbot rear yard is required by Section 23.605.5. The first variance granted allowed for a 0.2 foot setback to the property line and a 17 foot± setback to the lakeshore at the closest point including the deck. Basically, the new deck will be setback 1.4 feet instead of 4 feet as required by Section 23.408(3)c to the'rear property llne and 62 feet~ to the lakeshore. The present structure and formerlY approved addition, without the deck, is 6 feet to the rear property line and approximately 23 feet to the lakeshore at the closest point.

Will granting of the variance be materially detrimental to property in the same zone, or to the enforcement of this ordinance? N6 1776" At the present time our home has 2 bedrooms, 1 small bathroom, A walk-through kitchen, living room and a front hail foyer; there is no dining room or kitchen eatin9 area, Presently we are dining at a counter/bar which is located between the kitchen and living room. We have 2 children, a boy 7 and a girl 5, who are sharing a 10~X 12' bedroom. Because of our growing family, we have a need for additional habitable space. bedroom, bathroom and dinin9 area. He believe the locations of the proposed additions to be the most practical with regard to construction and variance requirements. We have attached a copy of the variance which was granted in 1981 when my wife and I first decided to add on an addition. This variance is still in effect alon9 with a current Buildin9 Permit from the City. The location of the origanal proposed addition has not changed although we are conslderin9 modifyin9 our deck as you can see from reviewin9 the proposed site plans from 1981an,~ the proposed current plan. We have also added a second proposed addition. Our reasons for this change in plans are many although we believe the relo- cation of the deck to the east side of our home to be a more practical appli- cation. It would now be located off our proposed dining area and would be at ground level along the easterly llne with a 2 to 3 step drop along the southerly line. The proposed deck in the 1981Varlance would have been con- structed on the walkout side of the house and would have been h to ? feet above ground level. The proposed easterly deck, includlng the stairs, is 300 Sq. ft., and the southerly portion equals 93 Sq.ft. This change would eliminate the previously proposed deck and it is an approximate trade-off of square footage. Using exterior dimensions, the total sq. ft. of'the existing building is 989 Sq. ft.. The proposed additions would add an additional 549 Sq.ft. bringin9 the total 'Sq. footage to approximately 1538 Sq. ft. I am currently in the process of renewing a Permit from the Hinnetonka Creek Watershed District for a variance for a lake front setback. (See attached letter) We belle,,e this plan will meet our needs for addltional living space, both inside and outside, and w|ll permit us to make the most reasonable use of our property. Your consideration of the request will be appreciated. CASE NO. 83-241 July 6, 1983 To Whom It May .Concern: We have examined the plans for the proposed addition to the property at 4957 Island View Drive, Mound, Minnesota. We do not have any objections to the proposed construction as these improvements will not interfere with our View of Lake Minnetonka and the proposed addition remains.over 20 feet from our common property line.

The new deck will be setback 1.4 feet to the property line and approximately 62 feet ~ to the lakeshore, and WHEREAS, the City Code requires Section 23.408.7 - principal structure shall be 50 feet or more from the Mean High Water Line when the property abuts the lake Section 23.408.3(c) deck attached to the principal building shall not extend within ten (10) feet of the rear lot line, and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission recommended approval of these variances to allow the property owner reasonable use of his land. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MOUND, MINNESOTA: That the City Council does hereby concur with the Planning Commission recommendation to approve the variances as described to allow the con- struction of the deck expansion and the two additions to the structure for 4957 Island View Drive, Lots 4,5 and 6, Block 23, Devon Addition, w)th plans submitted as per Exh[b|t A, Planning Commission Minutes 'July 22, 1983 _ Case No. 8~-243 Nonconforming'~°~ size, 'side yard variance and structure size vaT|ance request for 49]3 Island View Drive Lot 14, Block 14,-Devon '' : Mr. & Mrs. Kevin Hetchler were present. The Building Inspector explained the request is for an attached garage to the existing residence. The present structure is somewhat tipped to the lot line so as it goes northwest i't ge~closer to the lot line; a garage extended would come 45' feet. to side lot line; they did get a 2 foot front yard variance ~for the garage and now need a 2 foot side yard variance. Reese commented on request - the area is so congested; he knows they need to do something, but this request makes him uncomfortable. Mrs. Hetchler explained they already have a variance for an attached 22 X 22' garage; but they want to place the garage extension straight out from the house and change the roof pitch. Do not want to offset the garage. Don.Prince of 4917 Island View Dr,ive stated he had to meet set backs and the house next door was already nonconforming, They object to any construction any closer than 6 feet to lot llne and any ,closer to street would create hazard to anyone backing into the street. Mr. Burns (across street) can't see any pro~lem with looking at 2 garages, and thinks there is no encumbrance on the hill. Reese suggested making garage 20 feet by 22 feet. Mrs. Hetchler stated they were unaware when they bought~property it was non- conforming; they want a 22 X 22 foot garage and want to tie it into existing foundation; they are willing to. s~end the money, but will not Compromise. Byrnes moved and Reese seconded a motion that the Commission not grant the' variance as requested today. The vote was ali in favor except Michael was opposed.. He stated it does seem a little unfair if variance has been granted not to allow another 2 feet. Mrs. Hetchler advised that they will take legal action'. 2.' Legal Desc~ripti.on of Property: 6.

CITY of MOUND MOUND, MINNESOTA 55364 (612) 472-1155 TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Jon Elam, City Manager Jan Bertrand, Building Official August 4, 1983 Outlot A, Mill Pond The City of Mound was given Outlot A as part of the Mill Pond park dedication in lieu of a fee. My feeling is that if we could get permission from the Watershed District to'put in a storm drain to the south to.accommodate drainage, we could level the lot, discon- tinue the pond and sell the property as a building site. I have talked to several neighbors adjacent to the property. They would like to see the lot discontinued as a park. The lot' also fronts on a very busy County Road. It would be difficult for me to see how you would develop this lot as a park area.

In that role he has become a great resource in evaluating the total insurance package and in 'evaluating individual insurance claims, etc. The cost of this service is $4800 per year which I think he earned just with his work on the 1983 City insurance package. Additional work in 1982-83 was helping the City develop several liability policy statements, indepth research in attempting to reduce our workmans compensation rate and individual claim service. Because of his work, I feel The Home Insurance Company has been more responsive and helpful. It's a service everybody needs, few have and I think as a part of putting together the best.administrative consulting team possible (planning, legal, insurance, etc.) that Bill is a valuable resource we need to keep working for Mound. Bill will be at the meeting to go over the 1983-84 proposal in greater detail. JE:fc WILLIAM E, HUSBANDS 5207 W. 28TH STREET ST.

Because we just don't have the Staff to get involved in such a new effort, I suggested that perhaps this would be a logical program for the West Hennepin Human Services Program.

If'you have any questions or require further information on anything in this report, we will be pleased to discuss this w~th you at your convenience. Very truly yours, McCOMBS-KNUTSON ASSOCIATES, INC. JRt:si Enclosure printed on recycled PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING REPORT TENNIS COURTS OUTLOT A, "THE BLUFFS" MounO, Minnesota' July, 1983- I hereby certify that this report was prepared by me or under my direct supervision and that I am a duly Registered Rrofessional. Engineer under, the lawsof the State of Ninnesota. 7/7/83~ ........................................... Reg. No. 7411 William H. McCombs GENERAL A number of residents of The Bluffs have requested by petition that the Clty investigate the possibility of constructing a tennis court on Outlot A, "THE BLUFFS". Th~s property is more commonly known as "The Tot Lot" and is owned by the City of Mound. At the present time it is undeveloped but is main- rained as a play area by mowing. The lot measures 70 feet wide by 125 feet deep and is fairly level in the front, but rises sharply at the rear, which re- sults in a difference of approximately 14 feet in elevation. For this area of the country a north-south orientation for tennis courts is recommended, but cause of the lot configuration, we will be restricted to an east-west direction. DESIGN The recommended fenced in size of a standard court is 60 feet Dy 120 feet, with the actuai pIaying court being 36 feet by 78 feet. Because of the limited space available with this lot, we wouid recommenO reducing the length between six and ten feet. For purposes of this report we wiII De using 60 feet by ii4 feet. Because of the extreme grade difference from front to back on this lot, retaining waIis wiiI be a necessitity. We have investigated the use of two different retaining waiis, poured reinforced concrete and timber. Either of these walls will work satisfactorily, but there is a substantial cost differ- ence between the two which will De shown later in this report. At the north- west.corner, the wall will extend approximately seven feet above the playing surface and at the southeast corner, the playing surface will be approximately four feet above the adjacent ground. The drawings included with this report show a plan view of the court and also three elevations. The court surface would be asphalt, much the same as the two courts in Island Park Park. An as- phalt curb will De required along the south side to direct the runoff to the street. Because the construction of this court would not meet any of the required setbacks for this residential district, we feel the Planning Commission should be involved. It would also be a gooO idea to pass the proposal through the Park Commission. The MounO codes limit a residential fence to six feet in height, whereas the recommended height for the tennis court enclosure is ten feet. Since the homes are very close on Ooth sides, we would recommend at least a ten foot high fence. qo/ 4 With a lot size of 70 feet by 125 feet. and a court enclosure of 60 feet by I14 feet, the setbacks from each side wouid only be 5 feet. We wouid recommend the retaining waII and fence be buiIt on the rear Iot Iine which wouid Ieave approximateiy 9 feet to the front iot Iine and 1R feet to the curb. If a tim- bet waII is constructed on the rear Iot Iine, a iarger temporary construction easement wouid be needed from the property owner to the west. COST The estimated cost for the tennis court, as proposed in this report, is $32,700. This estimate includes contingencies and engineering, legal, fiscal, and administrative costs. A detailed breakdown is included in this report. If poureO reinforced concrete were to be used in lieu of wood timber for the retaining walls, approxzmately $9,500 would be added to the project. 8e- cause of the added expense, we would recommend using the timber walls. ASSESSMENTS Since this proposed tennis court would be more a neighborhood facility and is being r~ques~ed by the residents of The 8luffs, we are proposing to spread the cost as a per lot assessment. Using the estimated cost of $32,700 divided by the 35 lots in The Bluffs, the estimated assessment per lot would be approx- imately $935. This could be spread over a period of ten years. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS From an engineering standpoint, the project is economically and technically feasiole. However, we hesitate in giving a positive recommendation for this project because of the problems created by the small size of the lot available. Our big concern is with the court extending into the normal setback area beyond the front lines of the adjacent homes.

The two people are Mr. David Ziskin and Mr. Don Chemberlin. Both have filed claims for damages with the City although I believe previous experience will show the City isn't liable in such a situation. That's in the insurance company's hands and thus I don't need advice on this, but I do'wonder about installing, at the City's expense (about $325.00), back pressure valves in houses like Ziskins where we can anticipate if the power goes out that a back-up might occur. I realize this might open up a can of worms, but I do think we have a responsibility to act to prevent damage wherever possible and the public relations benefit in this situation would be very positive. I realize this may set a precedence that could be very important, but it's an issue that I would like to discuss and get feedback from you on. JE:fc BILLS ....

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN of a claim for damages on behalf 'of ANDREA JEAN BELCOURT, age seven, by her mother and natUral guardian, JEANETTE ~. BELCOURT, of 5217 Drummond Road, Mound, Minnesota 55364; and for the derivative claim of the 'aforesaid JEANETTE M. BELCOURT for medical services, required by the aforesaid ANDREA JEAN BELCOURT, whic~ the claim of JEANETTE M. BELCOURT'herein described, incurred as a result of the injuries suffered 'by ANDREA JEAN BELCOURT on Friday, July 8, 1983 at approximately 7:30 - 7:45 P.M. of said day. That on the date. and time above-alleged the City of Mound, Minnesota maintained a public dock at the public beach at Mound,'Minne- sota on Lake Minnetonka., whicho. Public dock is located at Mound Bay Park on Hennepin County Road 110, Commerce Boulevard.. Said dock is built of lumber and is approximately shaped as the letter "H". That it is approximately 50 feet wide between the upright stems of the "H". The stems are appr°xim~tely 30 feet long and approximately 4 feet wide, as is the 'connecting.line of the "H"-like dock which is approximately 40 feet in length between the two stems. That the City of Mound maintained the aforesaid dock in a careless, reckless and negligent manner by allowing the boards forming.said dock to become loose, which made the footing on said dock highly dangerous and insecure, especially for children of the approximate age of ANDREA JEAN BELCOURT, the above-injured minor. That the above-described dock was regularly used by many children and served to attract manY children to play thereon and to dive there- from into the water of Lake Minnetonka. That the officers of the City of Mound, including its mayor and cit~ council, were well'aware of the situation, including the hazardous condition of the dock and the fact that it had become a~ attractive nuisance attracting numerous young 6hildren to use the same. That with full knowledge of the aforegoing condition it had been in existence at least the entire summer of 1983 , the Village'of Mound, through its city cOuncil, mayor and other servants, agents and employees thereof, failed to correct the defect above-described. That as a direct result of the dangerous condition described ~erein, the minor ANDREA JEAN BELCOURT, at the time above-alleged, was caused to slip and fall from said dock with great force and violence~against one of.the vertical upright posts, supporting said dock; and thereby.sustained severe injuries to her right leg in the vicinity of the knee, which ~aused~severely torn tendons. That as a 'direct result thereof the aforenamed minor, ANDREA JEAN BELCOURT, reqUired the services of doctors, physicians, nurses'and hospitals in an effort to alleviate and heal the injuries sustained as herein alleged.'' That in addition to the financial obligations resulting from the requirement of the medical .and hOspital treatment, the above-named minor suffered severe pain and will continue to suffer the same for a long and indeterminate time in the future. That she has been disabled and will continue to be disabled fro~ gainful employment in the future. That by reason of the aforegoing, the claimant JEANETTE M. BE~COURT, the mother and natural guardian of the above-named minor, was deprivea of her services and that she also suffered mental grief and pain, re- sulting from the ~s~vere and painful injuries sustained .by her child, ANDREA JEAN BELCOURT, as 'herein alleged. Tha.t by reason of all the aforegoing injuries sustained by ANDREA JEAN BELCOURT, JEANETTE M. 'BELCOURT as mother and natural guardian ~f ANDREA JEAN BELCOURT, is making known her claim for sUch'damages as ANDREA JEAN'BELCOURT is entitled by law, in the sum of $250,000. That the above-named JEANETTE M. BELCOURT, the mother and natUral .guardian, by reason of the medical expenses~incurred, and the emotional and mental grief she sustained as a result of the injuries to her daughter, ANDREA JEAN BELCOURT, demands damages in 'the sum of $75,000.

Basically, the level of coliform organisms in the lake ranged from 480 to 540. The dangerous level was 800 to 1000. The fecal streptococci level was higher than it should be, but a level over 500 is what is considered dangerous and our levels ranged from 140 to 390. The Health Department didn't feel at these levels the Beach needed to be closed, but it people did sit. in the water a long time they could become victims of "Swimmer's Itch". I hope this answers the unanswered questions from the Health Department.

Several swimmers had contracted a pustule type rash similar to chicken pox after swimming at the beach. ~other person working on a dock near the beach also broke out in a rash after standing in the water for a fairly long period of time. Ym~ had made inquiries of the Department of Natural Resources to.find out whether any ~rmits had been issued for using chemical weed killers in the area. This did not seem to be the case. It was determined that this beach area is heavily populated with ducks and geese. This strongly suggests that the rash may have been due to schistosomiasis, known ;,s ~.wtmmers itch. The itch is-.qaused.by a snail larvae burrowing .into the ski~.

It is our recommendation that the beach be posted as a possible hazard from swimmers itch, and swimming classes be moved to a non-problem area.

Information on 80 grant and loan programs became available on a computerized system June 15. These programs are all state-administered, but include both state and federal funds. The system was set up because the Office of Local Government staff, in working with local officials, found that those eligible to apply for financial assistance were sometimes unaware of what was available. The 80 programs are grouped into 15 categories for easy reference. The categories are: arts, business development, communications, community development, employment, health and welfare, historic preservation, information systems, law enforcement, legal services, natural resources, outdoor recreation, public safety and transportation. Information is further categorized by eligible applicants. If, for example, the person seeking information is from a city, the system will list all the grant and loan programs for which cities are eligible to apply. After reviewing the list, the inquirer can ask for information about one or all of the programs listed. Descriptions include each program's purpose, selection criteria and other key factors the applicant should be aware of, the timetable for making application or disbursing funds, amount of funding available for each fiscal year, and the name, address and phone number of someone to contact for detailed information. The system contains programs for which both public and private sector entities may apply. The list of eligible public sector applicants includes units of government, state agencies, American Indian reservations and public corporations. Eligible private sector organizations include nonprofit corporations, businesses and individuals. After July 15, access to the information can be gained by calling Jim Uttley of the Council's Planning AssistanCe program at 291-6381. Staff will provide you with information while you wait or send a printed copy of the program summary to you. Communities with a terminal and modem can obtain information directly by dialing the State Planning Agency's DATALINE public information number. For more information, contact Jim Uttle¥, at 291-6361. ReCently there has been some confusion regarding what local governments are required to do prior to submitting amendments to their comprehensive plans to the Metropolitan Council for review. These requirements are set forth in two state laws. Under the Metropolitan Land Planning Act (Minn. Stat., Ch. 473)0 communities are required to send copies of proposed plan amendments to adjacent jurisdictions. Council review guidelines allow local governments to send amendments only to affected communities, however. Before submitting plan amendments for Council review, amendments must be considered by the community's governing body. Communities have ~vo options. First, the govern- ing body may approve a plan amendment contingent upon favorable Metropolitan Council review. Or second, it may consider an amendment, but withhold final action until the Metropolitan Council completes its review. Local governments a}so must still comply with the applicable planning and zoning enabling statutes (for cities, Minn. Stat., Ch. 462.351, et. seq.). Questions of whether action by t~e planning commission or public hearings are required are answered by reviewing Minn. Stat., Ch. 462.355(2) ("procedure for plan adoption and amendment"), local ordinances and charters, and local custom. Requirements vary from one community to the next. If you have a question about local requirements, contact your city attorney. He or she is best equipped to answer your questions. In responding to a recent request for assistance from Plymouth, the Council's Planning Assistance staff contacted the International Institute of Municipal Clerks (IIMC). A bonus of the contact was acquisition of recent IIMC publications that may be of special interest to clty clerks, managers and administrators. These publications include: Technical Bulletins No. 2 Indexing and Filing of Council Minutes No. 4 IIMC Ordinance Files No. 5 Consent Agendas 'COMPUTER SYMPOSIUM 1983' FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENT TO BE HELD JULY 26-28 JULY PLANNERS' FORUM MTC GUIDELINES FOR TRANSIT-RELATED IMPROVEMENTS TO BE AVAILABLE SOON APPLICATION SCREDULE FOF~ COMMUN I~;Y D EVE LO.

Lake Street Wayzata, MN 55391 Dear Frank, Confirming my telephone inquiry of 7/5, I would like to assist 'in seeing what could be done to re-assess the feasibility of putting together a serious proposal for the commissioning of a weed cutting and removal operation on the lake. I have lived on the lake for seventeen years and use it in some manner nearly every day from April into October. Since the closing of the sewer plants, there has been only a marginal improvement in the decreasing of weed growth. This year is probably the worst in the past five or six, with some bays, and areas of others, being so filled with floating weeds as to preclude any form of recreational use and to depreciate even their former beauty. Several weeks ago, ! attended a meeting at the Fresh Water Biological Institute, entitled "Learning to Live With Your Lake.m The speaker was Dr. Hanson, new Director designate of the Institute. The meeting was packed. People were interested in knowing what could be done to help us live with our lake, while it is dying. I deduced from Dr. Hanson's presentation that not a lot could be done except to get the nutrient out of the lake and prevent more from getting in, whether from ground water or watershed run-off sources. Since there is not "Salk Vaccine' for weeds anywhere in sight, it appears that a short-term fix that treats the symptom (weed growth) and does not seriously alter the environment, as use of chemicals might, should be seriously pursued. As you know, harvesting of aquatic weeds is a known technology, with predictable costs and success chances. By removing the cut material from the lake, some progress in treating the disease would even be experienced. If we continue to do nothing, more and more areas of the lake will be lost to weed growth and the hoped-for expanded recreational use of the lake would be concentrated into fewer and fewer bays, where overcrowding would eventually insure that no one enjoys the lake. Additionally as bays go bad, property values will inevitably drop, causing a long-term erosion of the tax base. Jeuo~.ss~u~o3 .<~.uno3 qqo~l .pnB.

METROPOLITAN COUNCIL Parks--The Metropolitan Council decided to begin working with other agencies in carrying out a number of recommenda- tions developed by the Lake Minnetonka Task Force concern- ing public use of Lake Minnetonka. Those recommendations include: - Improving and expanding the Grays Bay Causeway boat launch site; -- Acquiring publicly owned land on Big Island to be desig- nated by the Council as a regional park; and -- Establishing a public or private ferry boat system to make this island park available to non-boaters. In other parks actions, the Council approved: -- A development grant of $123,000 to St. Paul for Battle Creek Regional Park. That amount will be increased by federal Great River Road funds for a total of $492,000. An acquisition grant to St. Paul for $345,000 to acquire the railroad right-of-way within Lilydale-Harriet Island Regional Park. -- A boundary expansion of 2.25 acres in the southwest corner of Lake George Regional Park in Anoka County. The Council also approved an acquisition grant amendment for the park, adding $315,000 for a new total of about $1.3 million. -- An acquisition grant amendment of $240,000 to acquire two parcels of land for Lebanon Hills Regional Park in Dakota County, for a new total of $3.7 million. Health-The Council recommended a Certificate of Need for Mercy Medical Center in Coon Rapids for remodeling affecting its perinatal services, intensive care unit and radi- ology, chemical dependency and adolescent mental health services. The estimated capital cost is $5 million. The certificate provides that the hospital perform no pediatric cardiac catheterization procedures and, except for emergen- cies, no open heart surgery. Housing--The Council said Burnsviile's housing revenue bond plan is consistent with Council guidelines. The proposal calls for issuing $6 million in tax~xempt revenue bonds to finance development of the Windham H ills apartment complex, 171 rental apartments to be built south of Burnsville Pkwy. and east of Nicollet Ay. between Eagle Ridge Dr. and Port- land Av. Council Reorganization--The Council adopted a new com- mittee structure designed to strengthen policy direction and hnancial oversight the agency provides to metropolitan oper- lng commissions. The Council changed its bylaws by replacing rea standing committees with the following four new ones and two special committees: - Metropolitan and Community Development: Joan Campbell (chair), Mike McLaughlin, Joe Gasper, Gertrude Ulrich, Liz Anderson and Mary Hauser. Program Development and Review: Joe Gasper (chair), Chuck Wiger, Liz A~derson, Joan Campbell, Phil Carruthers and Pat Hasselmo. - Management Committee: Dirk deVries (chair), Jo Nunn, Jer~y.lsaacs,.Mao/Hauser ....... and Pat Scully. - Special Committee on Resource Management: Jo Nunn (chair), Chuck Wiger, Ray Joachim, Marcia Bennett and Carol Fiynn. Special Committee on Economic Development: Mike McLaughlin (chair), Pat. Scully, Carol Wold Sindt, Pat Hasselmo, Gertrude Ulrich and Phil Carruthers. The officers are as follows: first vice-chair, Joan Campbell; second vice-chair, Joe Gasper; secretary, Maurice Dorton; treasurer, Dirk deVries. Council Staff Reorganization--The Council approved a staff reorganization plan that includes the establishment of: a staff administrator's position, filled by Maurice Dorton; a deputy administrator for planning, Roger Israel; and a deputy administrator for management, Donald Carroll. The Council also established 14 departments: Administration, Communi- cations,.Comprehensive Planning, Environmental Planning, Finance, Health, Housing, Human Services, Information Sys- tems, Parks and Open Space, Personnel, Planning Assistance, Research and Transportation Planning. The reorganization is an internal reassignment of existing management personnel and requires no changes in the number of Council employees. Block Grants--The Council said applications for federal Community Development Block Grant funds by Anoka and Hennepin Counties for 1983 are generally consistent with the Council's regional plans and goals. Hennepin County is apply- ing for $3.8 million and Anoka County is seeking $1.9 million. The Council's comments are advisory only.

The areas where the proposed projects are located are within the Cities of Minnetrista, Orono, Maple Plain, Medina and Independence and are more specifically described in paragraph 6 below. 2. Purpose. The public hearing is held pursuant to Minn. Stat. §112.48, subd. 3, and its purpose is to determine whether the projects described in this Notice should be constructed by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District. The managers desire to hear from affected landowners, governmental officials and the general public regarding the proposed improvements. All persons who wish to ask questions or express their views regarding the proposed project are encouraged to attend the hearing. The issues to be decided by the managers are: ~'~ether the proposed improvements, as described in the petition as modified by the preliminary report of the engineer, will be conducive to the public health and promote the general welfare, whether the proposed improvements are in compliance with the Overall Plan of the District and the provisions of Minn. Stat. Chapter 112, and whether the improvements are part of the basic Water Management Plan of the District. 3. Background. The proposed project was initiated by petition of the governing body of the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District in July 1975. A preliminary engineering report on the petition was submitted to the managers in June, 1976. The managers held a public hearing on the petition and 'the preliminary engineering report on November 30, 1976. The managers did not make a decision on the project at that time. On August 17, 1978, the Board formally deferred further action until June.1980. On December 11, 1980, the managers approved a work plan to secure additional information to determine the feasibility of the Upper Watershed Storage and Retention Project within the Painter Creek Subwatershed as a first stage in the overall project. The managers directed the engineer to prepare a -2- preliminary engineering report to investigate the feasibility of the project within the Painter Creek Subwatershed. 4. Preliminary En~ineerin~ Report... The preliminary engineering report of the engineer dated October 1982, revised May 3, 1983, was accepted by the Board of Managers on June 16, 1983. The report has been submitted to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and the Minnesota Water Resources Board for their reports as provided by statute. Their reports will be available prior to the hearing. Copies of the preliminary engineering report have also been supplied to the Cities of Medina, Orono, Minnetrista, Maple Plain and Independence and are available at these City office~ for inspection. Copies of the preliminary engineering report are also available for review and inspection by any person at the office of the district's enginer, E.A. Hickok and Associates, 545 Indian Mound, Wayzata, Minnesota, during business hours prior to the date of the hearing. 5. Advisory Committee. An Advisory' Committee, comprised of representatives of the four municipalities, the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District, the Hennepin County Park Reserve District and citizen members, advised the Board throughout the preparation of the preliminary engineering report. The Advisory Committee report is a part of the preliminary engineering report. 6. Projects Proposed. The proposed improvement within the Painter Creek Subwatershed includes the following components: A. Flow Control Structures Project No. 1 - Lake Katrina Outlet Control Structure. Project No. 1 located in Orono on Painter Creek upstream of U.S. Highway 12 in the Baker Park Reserve and consists of a steel sheet pile weir with a low flow orifice. Project No. 1 will control water levels on and discharge from Lake Katrina. Project No. 3 - South Katrina Outlet Control Structure. Project No. 3 located in Orono on Painter Creek between U.S. Highway 12 and Hennepin County Road No. 6 consists of a notched steel sheet pile weir. Project No. 3 will control water levels on and discharge from°a protected wetland adjacent to the creek north of Hennepin County Road No. 6. Project No. 5 - Painter Creek Outlet Control Structure. Project No. 5 located in Minnetrista on Painter Creek north of Hennepin County Road No. 26 consists of a reinforced earth berm with a low flow outlet. Project No. 5 will control water levels on and discharge from a protected wetland adjacent to the creek between Hennepin County.Road Nos. 6 and 26. Project No. 6 - Pond 937 Outlet Control Structure. Project No. 6 located in Minnetrista on Painter Creek south of Hennepin County Road No. 26 consists of a steel sheet pile weir with a low flow outlet. Project No. 6 will control water levels on and discharge from a protected -4- wetland adjacent to the creek between Hennepin County Road No. 26 and Painter Creek Drive. B. Creek Channel Repair and Improvements Project No. 2 - South Katrina Mar~h Channel Improvements. Project No. 2 located in Orono on Painter Creek between U.S. Highway 12 and Hennepin County Road No. 6 consists of channel maintenance and excavation of an in-channel sedimentation basin. Project No. 2 will improve low flow characteristics of the creek channel and will reduce the amount of sediment carried by the creek to downstream areas. Project No. 4 - Painter Marsh Channel Improvements. Project No. 4 located in Independence and Minnetrista on Painter Creek between Hennepin County Road Nos. 6 and 26 consists of channel maintenance and excavation of an in-channel sedimentation basin. Project No. 4 will improve low flow characteristics of the creek channel and will reduce the amount of sediment carried'by the creek to downstream areas. 7. Easement Acquisition. The flow control structures may affect adjoining lands by raising water levels above historic levels in the ponds under certain conditions. The preliminary engineering report calculates that Project No. 5 will increase water levels on Painter Marsh. The report calculates that Project Nos. 1, 3 and 6 will not increase water levels on their respective ponds. Easements will be acquired for water storage where final calculations show that water levels will exceed ordinary high water levels. All projects will require easements for construction and maintenance. Data presently available has been used to identify the land areas potentially affected and the approximate location of easements needed. These lands are identified in the preliminary engineering report. Final configuration of easements will not be prepared unless the project is ordered. 8. Estimated Cost and Proposed Method of Financing. The estimated cost of the improvement, including engineering and administrative costs, is between 5401,112 and 5444,120 in 1984 dollars. The petitioner proposes that the cost of the project be assessed against all taxable properties within the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District by the levy of a tax not to exceed 1/3 mill annually under Minn. Stat. §112.61, subd. 3. 9. Continuation of Hearing. If necessary, the public hearing may be continued in order to allow all interested persons to be heard which continuation, if any, shall be announced by the managers at each preceding hearing, giving the time and place of the continued public hearing. 10.

The purpose of this letter is to inform the Commission of how the Company has responded to the completed survey to date, and to suggest one additional step the Company would like to take. Surveys containing negative responses to questions and/or negative service comments were carefully analyzed to determine whether customer contact by. our field management personnel was necessary. Contacts by' either telephone, letter or personal visit, as determined by the type of question and response or comment, are currently being made by our local management people. A large majority of responses to the question of whether customers were aware of the availability of credit for outages exceeding 24 hours were negative. The Company suggests that the customer notice previously proposed in response to ordering paragraph 6 of the Commission's December 17, 1982 order be revised to include information on out of service credits. Our suggestion is attached. We propose putting this notice in bill stuffer format and including it in all September billing cycles. Sincerely~ Sherry Baflaszewski J Analyst-Publ i c Affai rs SB:gj Dear Customer: Do you know how important your input is to us in providing your telephone service?

TWIN CITIES LABOR MARKET LABOR MARKET CONDITIONS Vol. 7 No. 7 JULY 1983 Developments from a Month Ago C , The unemployment rate in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan dropped from 7.2 per- cent in April to 6.6 percent in May. This was the second consecutive month in which the unemployment rate has dropped rapidly. As has been the case in previous months, the decrease was due to a drop in the number o¢ unemployed and slow labor force growth. Over the past thirteen years for which monthly labor force data are avail- able, the average April to May change in the labor force has been 1.1 percent and the change in the number of unemployed has been a 5.3 percent decrease. This year the labor force grew by 0.8 percent while the number of unemployed decreased by 7.5 per- cent. Employment growth this year matched the thirteen year average.of 1.4 percent.. The slow labor force growth is probably due to a combination of factors. First, poor abor market conditions have discouraged young people from entering the labor force. :ondly, some of those who have been unemployed for an extended duration have left the labor force. Older unemployed workers may have retired, while younger unemployed workers may have left the area for some other part of the country.

Developments from a Year Ago Despite the promising improvements of the past two months, the unemployment rate for the entire Twin Cities metropolitan area remains higher than a year ago. The number of unemployed is 4.2 percent above a year ago while there are 33,000 fewer employed workers. As the table at the bottom of page one shows, however, the unemployment rate in parts of the Twin Cities area has dropped below year ago levels. Three Month Outlook Over the upcoming three month period, Twin Cities labor market conditions should con- tinue to improve along with the upturn in the national economy. There are indica- tions, both in the nonagricultural wage and salary employment data as.well asljob openings data measured by the Conference Board's Index of Help Wanted Adv6rtising and State Job Service openings received that the demand for labor is picking up. Both the Help-Wanted Index and Job Service Openings showed demand exceeding year ago levels in May. It must be remembered that yeae ago levels of job demand were very low compared to previous years. Over the past thirteen years, the unemployment rate has increased by 0.2 of a percentage point between Hay and August. Last year the unemployment rate rose by 0.6 of a percentage point. The end of the school year is a strong seasonal factor which generally causes the unemployment rate to rise in June. The unemployment rate generally falls slightly in July and August as young job seekers find'work or leave the la,or force.

The monthly decrease from April of 22.9 percent compares very favorably with an average five year de- crease of 14.9 percent. Almost 70 per- cent of the decrease occurred in two in- dustries - construction and durable goods manufacturing, especially in the nonelectrical machinery sector. Also on a positive note is the fact that May is the second month in which claims have decreased from year ago levels. This year's claim level is 6,798 down from May of 1982. However, there are an additional 13,734 persons claiming under extended benefit programs this year, compared to 4,999 in May, 1982. Most of the yearly decrease also occurred in two industries - construction and manufac- turing. Most manufacturing industry sectors recorded declines, but the lar- st occurred in the nonelectrical ma- ery sector. CHARACTERZSTICS OF THE ZNSURED UNEMPLOYED (Regular I~eneftt$ Program) NZ~N~LZS-ST.

Total wage and salary em- ployment rose by 11,600 from April to May, with the construction industry accounting for a substantial por%ion of the increase, 4,500 jobs. This increase had been long- awaited this Spring as the number of building permits issued in the first quarter of 1983 was 75 percent greater than a year ago. However, wet conditions had apparently limited construction activity prior to the May survey period. Other sectors showing greater than normal seasonal increases were trade, up 3,300 jobs, services, up 1,800 jobs, and manufacturing, up 700 jobs. With the exception of the nonelectrical machin- ery industry, most other manufacturing industries registered only modest increases-or decreases in jobs. The length of the average workweek in May rebounded from April, but it remains below the level of May 1982 when it was 39.4 hours. Developments from a Year Ago Despite the turnaround of the past several months, the number of wage and salary jobs in the Twin Cities area is estimated to be 14,600 or 1.4 percent less than this time a year ago. The following table compares percent changes in employment by industry group from May 1982 to May 1983 in the U.S., State, and Twin Cities areaI.

However, while the manufacturing sector accounted for most of the decrease, -6,700 jobs, the major differences between the Twin Cities area and the Nation appear to be in the government sector, construc- tion, finance - insurance - real estate, and services. In the first two cases, job cutbacks were more severe locally, while in the latter two industries, job growth was significantly slower locally. Three-Month Outlook The improving job market trend is expected to continue through the third quarter of 1983. Total nonagricultural wage and salary employment is expected to grow signifi- cantly faster than it has during the comparable period of the past three years, but Only about half as fast as that recorded over the past thirteen years. The most rapid job growth is expected in the construction sector as seasonal and economic improvement combine to increase job demand. The manufacturing sector is expected to continue show gradual improvement during the third quarter. The trade, finance and service sector' should moderate growth, while transportation and government jobs are expected to de- cline in response to seasonal factors.

Source: Current £mploym~nt Stati;tics Pronram (Figures rounded to nearest hundred) THE JOB MARKET A previous table in this month's publication compared trends in industry employment in the past twelve months in the Nation, State, and Twin City metro area. In this sec- tion, we have prepared a table which shows the changes in industry employment in 1982 as'compared to 1981 in the nine counties which make up the metropolitan labor market area. The employment data in the table below is referred to as "covered" employment. This is nonagricultural wage and salary emplojanent in establishments located in the desianated county which is covered by the Minnesota Unemployment Insurance Law. Ap- proximately 97 percent of all nonagricultural wage and salary employment in the State is covered by Unemployment Insurance. The major groups of workers not covered are railroad transportation workers, students at co~leges who are working for the college, real estate and insurance sales persons who work exclusively on a commission basis, and elected government officials. Covered employment differs from labor force employ- ment published on page one in that it is nonagricultural wage and salary employment in establishments located in the county, whereas labor force employment is a count of the residents of a county who are employed. Most are working for wages and s&laries, but some may be ~elf-employed. Also many employed residents of a county commute'to an establishment located in another county. The only county in the metropolitan area to show an increase in covered employment in 1982 over 1981 was Wright. This county has experienced rapid population growth over the past decade. The growth of service industry employment to this expanding popula- tion'was a primary factor in the 1981-82 increase. Chisago county also had a high growth rate in the service sector. For the most part, however, employment in the ser- vice sector was slightly lower in 1982 than 1981. This is a dramatic reversal of the employment t~end which had averaged nearly 7.0 percent per year between 1976 and 1981. Carver county experienced the largest drop in employment between 1981 and 1982 as manufacturing, construction, trade, service, and government units all cut back rela- tively more sharply than the metropolitan average.

After The Paasonens have purchased Lot 28, they would like to also purchase 29. This will still leave the City with Lots 30 and 31 which would be a buildab!e site in itself. fc enc.

The court's Order is on file in' the office of the Registrar ' of Titles. and a new Certificate of Title is'being issued in the name of the City 'as fee c~aer of the entire parcel. Resale of these lots is now possible. I note in your m~no dated Ja~_~ry 17, 1983 that you refer to Lot 28 in addition to the above lots. Please note that Lot 28 was not included in this proceeding. The reason is that this i lot was acquired from the State for an authorized public purpose. It was never purchased outright by the City. Therefore, the City's interest is~limited and should its use for. public purposes cease, the City would be required to reconvey it to the State of Minnesota. Consequently, it~should not be offered for sale. Please let me know if you have any questions. ve y s, ':' Thomas F. Underwood - TFU:csk P.S. I am a~so enclosing the two signed Applications to 'register title. The corporate seal of the City should be affixed to both in the lower left-hand comer of the second page. As soon as they are returned to me I will com~nce the registration proceeding. Dow. Sat of Minnesota, Inc.

Elam City ManaEer City of Mound 53~1 Maywood Road Mound, Ma. 5536~ Dear John Just a note to bring you up to date on our construction schedule for Mound. We started ha~ging strand on power company poles on July 18thwith one crew getting something over 5,000' per day. On July 29th we started two cable crews with their daily production averaging 2,000'/day. More crews will be brought in within the next two weeks as our St. James construction is completed. I am experiencing delays in getting our new office building construction u~derway. The final drawings are to be out for bid by Aug. 10, 1983 so we should findly see activity within two weeks on our build/ng. Some of our plant will be capable of serving customers by Sept. 15th, which I would like to do if we can get a temporary headen~ inst~lled on our property at Wilshire and Maywood. This would be in the form of a 8'x30' mobile con- struction trailer to be set on the western edge of the lot. We would also make use of one office in the trailer for our construction firm to have better contact with our company during the construction phase. Let me emphasize that this is only a temporary office for our crews and headend eguiptment and it should not be on the site for more than 60 days. We certainly appreciate the excellent cooperation we have received from the city of Mound and we are looking forward to doing business here. Sincerely, Stuart V.

With the future of the Anderson Building in qdestion and the Lost. Lake site as well, we could face a major crisis as to what to do with our city equipment since we presently only have available storage for about half of what we have and need on the Island. This study to be paid for from the Building Fund is a major constructive step to study options, visit other cities and try and bring ali the fact and costs together in one report. I recommend approving entering to a contract to conduct this study. JE:fc ,R/ I
