Summer Hours galn this year, ! am recommending that Mound City Hall will be open extended hours Monday through Thursday during the summer to make it easier for residents, business owners and contractors to do business with the City. The summer hours, which would be effective Monday, May 19 through Friday, August 29th, would be as follows: Monday-Thursday 7:30 - 5:00 Friday 7:30 - 11:30 Last year, at the start of summer hours, staff was informed that it was to be a "pilot project," that I had certain expectations that must be met, and that there could be no abuses by frequently taking Fridays off. We created comment cards and staff did their best to get written comments, but unfortunately, customers were reluctant to take the time to fill them out. The comments received were: o Great benefit to the city and to the employees. Very good idea. I would not have got my water turned on if you were no open till 5:00 p.m. This helps us working folk out a lot. Thank you. About time! It is my thought that had our customers been unhappy with the hours, we would have gotten lots of written comments. As is typical, when they are okay or happy with a service we don't generally receive comments or praise. It is my recommendation that we repeat the hours again this year. #14. 2003 Budget and Potential Revenues staff is working up some suggested revenues that warrant council consideration, as a stop gap measure to already slim budget. Keep in mind that it is proposed that the City suffer a $194,000 LGA cut in 2003, and possibly double that in 2004, combined with levy limits. May 6 at 6:30 p.m. is suggested as a meeting date and time. Human Resources Jim Kurtz has cleared his psychological testing. We are still waiting for the results of other back grounding. A start date has been set, which is Apr 11. He will be sworn in a private setting that day.' The following ek he will spend in new chief's training at St Cloud. The public swearing in and reception will be held the evening of Apr 22. Other . See the newest council picture encased in the lobby trophy case. It was the best one of the prOofs--trust me. Staff and Council Members are reminded to turn in the 360 degree evaluation for the City Manager to Bonnie by the end of this week. Please limit comments, written and in the meeting to fOllow, to those directly pertinent to performance. I will likely be choosing the option of an open meeting for the evaluation, but in the conference room setting. Thank you. Spri ere! Hurrah!

The applicant is also requesting the following approvals from the City of Mound: · Variance to allow 20-foot from setback Variance to allow hardcover up to 40 percent Vacation of an existing drainage/utility easement between Lots 5 and 6, Block 4 · Floodplain alternation permit · Waiver of wetland buffer requirement MEETING OVERVIEW Staff provided an overview of the request(s) and indicated that no action was necessary regarding the utility easement as it was approved previously. Additionally, no action from the City regarding the buffer requirement is needed because a minor subdivision does not trigger the buffer standards. -1165- Staff further commented that action on the floodplain alteration permit is not possible at this time due the need for additional information and will likely be done as part of the building permit process. Pursuant to the Cooperative Agreement between the City and the MCWD, notification regarding the floodplain alteration permit will be required. Members of the Planning Commission expressed support for the minor subdivision and 20-foot front setback variances but did not support the hardcover variance as hardship is not demonstrated on the current plan. The Commission, did however, indicate that it was flexible regarding the hardcover issue if special conditions were present and the request was reasonable. Details regarding the Planning Commission's review of the request are included in the March 17, 2003 meeting minute excerpts which have been included as an attachment. RECOMMENDATION Based on its review, the Planning Commission unanimously voted to recommend Council approval of the request as recommended by Staff. A draft resolution has been included as an attachment. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The applicant has indicated that he would like the opportunity to discuss trunk area charges for sewer and water with the City Council. As the City Council may be aware, City Code requires the payment of a water trunk area charge of $1500.00 and sewer trunk area charge of $1500.00 which is paid as part of the building permit. A water connection fee of $240.00 and sewer connection fee of $240.00 per lot is also required. The applicant has applied for and received a Fast Track Permit from the MCWD to riprap the shoreline along the north edge of the lagoon. It is City staff' s understanding that the wetland may be affected by the riprap activities therefore City approval may be required, Members of the City Council are advised that Kelly Boprey of MRFA, the City's wetland consultant, is currently reviewing the application materials.

Bill Stoddard, Minnetonka Realty, thought it was not fair that they would lose lot of record status since he's reducing the number of lots. He felt there were enough controls on the property. Any additional hardcover would have to come before City Council. Michael asked if he knew about any boat length covenant? Stoddard was not familiar ~vith that. Docks would require LMCD permit. He akeady received a permit for riprap at the shoreline. Osmek had spoken to the owner of Lot 4 about a tree he was hoping would survive the changes. Stoddard would be willing to work with the neighbor, that SAC and WAC would be dealt with at the Council level.

MOTION carried -1172- Mound Planning Commission Attn: Sarah Smith Mound City Council Attn: Pat Miesel Dear Sarah and Pat: When we moved into Mound we were concerned about the lack of control of zoning and the way Mound appeared to the general public. Small lots, poorly developed areas, lack of parks, lack of green spaces, a poorly developed downtown, and insufficient planning seemed to be the standard. Yet Mound has always been the "next great area around Lake Minnetonka". Excelsior and Wayzata developed controls and have made great strides over the years. The attached letter tells me that Mound still hasn't turned the comer in controlling its growth and quality. Our neighborhood has been fighting the development of four homes on Three Points for years and, I thought, successfully. Now I see that a new group has bought the property and continues to attempt to "mock the standards" by requesting variances that are ridiculous. Three homes (that is what is now on the table) will bring homes too close to the road (20 feet), bring too many docks in an already crowded lagoon Oust take a look), allow homes to be built on property that the previous owner filled into the lagoon (I thought that was illegal), will be built on property that is below Mound building code standards, and will need to back out onto a very busy Three Points Boulevard (that will be quite dangerous because of the lack of visibility and the lack of space between garage and street - 20 feet). How often must we be required to fight this kind of unnecessary development? I am appalled in that we must over and over again speak out against the same issue when we all think it is resolved and the city will "do the right thing". Can Mound "do the right thing" now once and for all or will it "do the usual thing" and continue to look like a backward community that doesn't care about its appearance? Yourchoice!!!!

The applicant, William Stoddard of Minnetonka Enterprises, has signed an option agreement for the property located at 5331-5361 Three Points Boulevard and is requesting approval of a minor subdivision to reconfigure Lots 5-8 Block 4, Harrisons Shores Replat into three new (3) lots and plans to construct three new single-family homes. Variances. The applicant is requesting a front yard setback reduction of (10) feet as well as flexibility to allow impervious surface coverage up to (40) percent for the subdivision. As set forth in the R-1 District regulations, a front setback of 3 O-feet is required. The City's shoreland ordinance restricts hardcover to no more than (30) percent for all new lots. Vacation. The applicant's narrative also references a request for vacation of an existing drainage/utility easement between Lots 5 and 6. Based on review by City staff, it has been determined that a vacation is not required as the previous approval from 1986 is still valid even though it appears to have never been recorded. Other(s). Other requests include the approval of a floodplain alteration permit and waiver of the wetland buffer requirement. -1174- SUBDIVISION PROCEDURE City Code Chapter 330.20 outlines the classifications of subdivisions in the City of Mound and states that any division of land that is subject to the subdivision regulations shall be considered either a major subdivision or a minor subdivision. As set forth in City Code Chapter 330:20 Subd. 1, the following is considered to be a minor subdivision: Any subdivision of land creating not more than three (3) residential lots which shall conform to the following: 1. Have frontage on an existing public road. Not require the construction of any new public facilities or public improvements. 3. There shall be no adverse effect on remaining or adjoining property. There shall be no conflict with the Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Ordinance or Official Map. CITY REVIEW PROCESS AND TIMELINE The application was received and deemed to be complete on March 11, 2003. Pursuant to Minnesota State Statutes Section 15.99, the City of Mound has sixty (60) days to approve a variance request. Minnesota State Statutes Section 462.358 further provides that subdivisions must be approved within (120) days. NOTIFICATION City policy requires that abutting property owners are notified of minor subdivision and variance requests by mailed notice. Members of the Planning Commission are advised that notice of the land use request(s) was mailed to all property owners located within (350) feet on March 13, 2003. IssuEs ANALYSIS Comprehensive Plan Existing Land Uses. West East North South Residential (10,000 SF lot size) Residential (6000 - 10,000 lot size) High Density Residential Residential (i0,000 SF lot size) 2 -1175- Draft Land Use Plan. The subject property is guided for future low-density residential use (1-6 units / acre.) Zoning. The following table includes the lot area, width and setback requirements for the R-1 Single-Family Residential District. Lot Area Width Depth Front Side Rear Lake Setback Setback Setback Setback R-1 10,000 SF 60 FT 80 FT 30 FT 10 FT 15 FT 50 FT Residential Minimum Floor Area Requirements. City Code Section 350:45, Subd. 1 states that a minimum dwelling size of (840) square feet is required for all new residential construction. Ordinary High Water Elevation. The Ordinary High Water (OHW) elevation for Lake Minnetonka is 929.4 Floodplain. Required Elevation. The Regulatory Flood Protection Elevation (RFPE) for the City of Mound is 933.00. Floodplain regulations require that the lowest floor of all structures including basements and crawl spaces must be constructed at or above the RFPE. Fill / Compensation. City Code Chapter 300.13, Subd 4 (b) states that the placement of fill in the flood fringe shall result in a no-net decrease in 100-year flood storage. In the event the floodplain compensation cannot be accommodated on-site, it must be accomplished on the same waterbody and in an appropriate location approved by the City. Wetland Boundary. The wetland boundary as determined by the Technical Evaluation Panel (TEP) was approved by the City Council at its July 9, 2002 meeting and is referenced on the certificate of survey dated March 11, 2003 which was prepared by Coffin & Gronberg. A wetland buffer is not required by the City Code as the project does not qualify as a major subdivision. Proposed Site Plan. The following table summarizes the lot area, lot width and setback requirements for the subject site as proposed by the applicant: Lot* Width** Depth Front Side Lakeshore Impervious Area Setback Setback(s) Setback Coverage Lotl 13,140 137.4 ft lllft 20ft 10/10 ft 50ft 30% Lot2 12,245 114.2 ft ll5ft 20ft 16/20 ft 50ft 31% Lot 3 11,665 126.4 ft 98 ft 20 ft 10 / 11 ft 50 ft 29% *Note: Note: Effective October 2001 lot area is measured from the 929.4 (OHW) elevation. Previously, it was measured from the 931.0 (100-year floodplain ) elevation. As measured from minimum 30-foot front setback line. -1176- Based on review of the new survey, the minor subdivision meet the requirements of the R-1 District with the exception of the required 30-foot from setback for proposed Lots 1-3 and the 30 percent hardcover restriction for proposed Lot 2. Non-Lot of Record Status. In the event the minor subdivision request is approved, the subject property will lose its "lot of record" status and therefore will be subject to the standard provisions of the R-1 District including side setbacks of 1 O-feet and hardcover not exceeding (30) percent. The applicant is requesting flexibility from the City Code to allow hardcover up to (40) percent for the minor subdivision as Lots 5-8 are original "lots of record." CITY DEPARTMENT REVIEW Copies of the request and all supporting materials were forwarded to involved City departments for review and comment on March 12, 2003. All written comments received to date are summarized below: John Cameron See memorandum dated March 14, 2003 which has been included as an attachment. Matt Simoneau Due to proximity of 931.0 floodplain elevation It is recommended that any proposed structure(s) to exclude basement and/or crawl spaces. Additional detail regarding the breezeway sunroom areas on proposed Lot 1 and 3 is suggested. Building permits required including the submittal of all necessary information. PUBLIC AGENCY REVI]gW Copies of the request and all supporting materials were forwarded to the MCWD, DNR, and LMCD for review on March 13, 2003. DISCUSSION The subject property includes four (4) parcels located on the south side of Three Points Boulevard that are currently vacant. It is bordered by residential uses on the north, west and east sides. It is bordered on the south side by a wetland / lagoon. 2. Lots 5-8, Block 4, Harrison Shores Replat are considered to be lots of record. -1177- The following land use actions were approved previously for the subject property: Resolution 86-82 Lot size and setback variance for Lot 8, Block 4 Resolution 86-97 Vacation of certain utility and drainage easements for Lots 5 and 6, Block 4 Resolution 86-98 Front yard setback variance for Lots 5, 6, and 7 Block 4 to allow (20) foot front setback Resolution 86-99 Final subdivision: Lots 5, 6, and 7, Block 4 Previous applications considered but not approved for the property include a rezoning application in 2002 and a variance(s) application in 2003 to allow a 20-foot front setback for Lots 5-7 and reduced lot size for Lots 5-7. A variance to allow a 20-foot front setback for Lot 4 was approved in 1983. An additional variance was granted in 1992 to allow a decreased lakeshore setback for a deck. No variances are on file for Lot 9. A proposed building pad has been demonstrated on the subject lot(s) based on a 20- foot front yard setback. All other setback requirements of the R~I District are met. The applicant is requesting flexibility regarding application of the 30 percent hardcover restriction and is requesting hardcover up to 40 percent. As submitted, proposed Lot 1 and Lot 3 meet the 30 percent restriction and Lot 2 is over by (164) square feet. Based on the review of the current plan, it appears that there are ways to reduce the hardcover to meet the 30 percent restriction on Lot 2 including, elimination of the walkway(s), construction of the walkways as a boardwalk-type structure, narrowing of the driveway, reduction of the house size, etc. Absent an alternate plan, it is difficult for City staff to establish hardship and therefore favorable support of the variance is not possible. The site plan, as submitted, includes a proposed building footprint. However, it is City staff's understanding that detailed house plans for the proposed new lots have not been developed. In all likelihood, custom homes will be constructed on the subject lots. In the event the (30) percent hardcover restriction could not be met due to a special house and/or site design, a variance could be considered at a later date in conjunction with the building permit. 5 -1178- 10. Strict application of the 30-foot front setback standard increases the impact to the 100-year floodplain and wetland area as the buildings are pushed deeper into the floodplain and further encroach into the designated wetland. The potential for additional fill and grading activities also increases. 11. The placement of any future docks may require permitting from the City of Mound and/or the LMCD. 12. Special permitting may be required for the walkway placement in the wetland. 13. As set forth in City Code 330.120, Subd. 6, park dedication fees are not required. RECOMMENDATION Regarding the application(s) from Bill Stoddard of Minnetonka Enterprises, City staff offers the following recommendations: Approval of the minor subdivision and variance request to allow a 20-foot front setback be approved subject to the following list of conditions: A. Applicant shall be responsible for payment of all costs associated with the land use requests. B. No future approval of any development plans and/or building permits is included as part of this action in the event the variance(s) application is approved. C. Applicant shall be required to submit all required information upon submittal of the building permit applications, when appropriate. D. The lowest floor (including basement and/or crawl space) shall be at or above the RFPE. E. Applicant shall be responsible for procurement of any and/or all permits. F. Conditions from the City Engineer. Denial of the variance to allow hardcover up to (40) percent on the property as proposed Lots 1 and 3 meet the 30 percent restriction as submitted and proposed Lot 2 is over by (164) square feet and could be adjusted to meet the current hardcover standard. 6 -1179- o No action on the vacation request for the drainage/utility easement is necessary as the City's previous approval in 1986 is valid. The City will cooperate with the applicant to ensure that the vacation is put of record. No action on the wetland waiver request as the City's requirements do not trigger the application of a wetland buffer. No action on the floodplain alteration permit request as a separate application process will be required and undertaken concurrently with the building permit application CITY COUNCIL REVIEW It is anticipated that the request will be forwarded to the City Council for review at its March 25, 2003 meeting. 7 -1180- SUBDIVISION PROCEDURE City Code Chapter 330.20 outlines the classifications of subdivisions in the City of Mound and states that any division of land that is subject to the subdivision regulations shall be considered either a major subdivision or a minor subdivision.

It should be noted that we believe by altering our earlier application from the platted four lots to this application for three lots we are working towards my desire to do as the City Council expressed in our meeting of February 25, 2003.

DATE 3 -'//-,~? -1193- MEMORANDUM DATE: March 14, 2003 TO: Sarah Smith, Community Development Director FROM: John Cameron, City Engineer SUBJECT: City of Mound Minnetonka Enterprises Minor Subdivision of Becker Property Case #03-13 MFRA #14277 As requested, we have reviewed the request for a minor subdivision of the Becker property on Three Point's Boulevard and have the following comments and/or recommendation: General The property is comprised of four (4) separate platted lots, which the applicant is requesting be rearranged into three (3) building parcels. The wetland boundary as shown on the survey matches the tine as approved by the Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) Technical Evaluation Panel (TEP) in February 2001. Grading and Drainage The survey submitted with the application shows only tentative house locations and proposed building elevations. A more complete grading and drainage plan will need to be submitted when applications are made for building permits. The plan submitted for the minor subdivision request also shows floodplain impacts and compensating excavation. A separate floodplain alteration permit will be required for this activity. Because the excavation (in the wetland) will not convert the area to another land use, the excavation is not a WCA regulated activity. -1194- Sarah Smith, Community Development Director March 14, 2003 Page 2 o The plan submitted appears to impact the wetland on each of the three lots. The wetland impacts appear to exceed the WCA deminus exemption of 400 square feet; therefore the applicant will need to submit a wetland replacement plan application or modify the plan to meet the exemption. The original plat of"Replat of Harrison Shores" did not include drainage and utility easements along the lot lines, except for a drainage easement on the lot line between Lots 5 and 6, which was vacated in 1986 by Council Resolution in 86-97, a copy of which is attached. New drainage and utility easements should be required along all new lot lines, five (5) feet wide on the side and ten (10) feet in width along the front and rear lot lines. Utilities 1. Separate sanitary sewer services were installed to each of the four platted lots when the mains were installed in Three Point's Boulevard. These services can be used for the new parcels. City records do not indicate that water services were ever extended from the watermain in Three Point's Boulevard to serve the original lots; therefore new water services for the three (3) proposed parcels will need to be installed at the applicant's expense. Miscellaneous Recent revisions to the City Code requires that Sanitary Sewer and Watermain Area Trunk charges in addition to connection fees must be paid on new building sites. The present area trunk charges are $1,500 each for sewer and water; and a connection fee of $240 each for sewer and water per new parcel created by the minor subdivision. The concrete curb on Three Point's Boulevard is a full six-inches high and will need to be removed for installation of concrete driveway aprons when the homes are constructed. The aprons will need to extend through the existing sidewalk, which were not constructed to accommodate vehicles. Recommendations 1. Final grading and drainage plan to be approved by the City Engineer at time of building permit application. 2. A flood plain alternation permit is required for the floodplain impacts. Provide documentation that the proposed plan falls within the deminus exemption of 400 square feet, revise the plan to meet the deminus exemption or apply for and receive approval for wetland replacement. -1195- Sarah Smith, Community Development Director March 14, 2003 Page 3 4. Provide drainage and utility easements along all new lot lines, five (5) feet wide on side lot lines and ten (10) feet in width along front and rear lot lines. 5. The installation of new water services to all three new parcels must either be completed or some type of financial guarantee provided, such as cash escrow, letter of credit, or performance bond. 6. Sanitary Sewer and Watermain Area Trunk charges of $1,500 each shall be paid when building permit applications are made for each of the three (3) new parcels. 7. Removal of concrete curb and sidewalks and installation of new concrete aprons for proposed driveways shall be required at time of home construction. s:\main:\Mou 14277:~Corresponden ce\smith3-13 -1196- Auc. l.USt 2_6, 19BG RESOLUTION NO. 86-97 RESOLUTION VACATING CERTAIN UTILITY AND DRAINAGE EASEMEN'f' OVER, UNDER AND THROUGH LOT 5 AND 6, BLOCK 4, 'REPLAT OF .

NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Mound, Minnesota, as follows: 1. Lot Area Variance Requests for Lots 5 through 7. Failure to grant the requested variances would not create an undue hardship because, all four lots are in common ownership and control, and their recombination into lots which meet the minimum lot area is not only reasopable and practical, but has, in fact been done by Resolution No. __ 2. Front Yard Setback Variance Request for Lots 5 through 8: By Resolution No. __this Council bas granted a 10 foot variance to the required front yard setbacks for the three lots contained in the minor subdivision which was also approved in Resolution No. ~, and has made findings supporting thc grant of the variance. Because of such approval, the failure to grant a I 0 foot yard setback variance for the original four lots does not constitute a hardship or prevent a reasonable use of the property. Moreover, the City Council determines that the granting of thc variance in the case of four lots would result in a massing of activities which pose a potential conflict with vehicle and pedestrian traffic on Three Points Boulevard. 3. The City Council fi~rther finds that all tile circumstances contained in Section 350.530 of the Mound City Code do not exist with respect to the variances requested in the First Application. Specifically, the City Council determines that the circumstances described in Subdivision I A,B, E and F do not exist. 4. In light of thc foregoing, the lot area variances for Lots 5 tbrougll 7 and tile front yard setback variances for Lots 5 through 8, Block 4, Rcplat of Harrison Shores, Helmepin County, are hereby denied. , 5. This variance(s) application is denied for the following legally described property as stated in the Hennepin County Property Information System: Lots 5-8, Block 4, Rcplat of Harrison Shores, Helmepin County, Minnesota.

TO: Mound Council, Planning Commission and Staff FROM: Loren Gordon, AICP DATE: March 21, 2003 SUBJECT: Minor Subdivision APPLICANT: Henry and Gina Lazniarz CASE NUMBERS: 03-07 HKG FILE NUMBER: 03-05 LOCATION: 2954 Oaklawn Lane ZONING: R-1 Single Family Residential COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Low Density Residential The minor subdivision was reviewed by the Planning Commission at their March 3, 2003 meeting. The Commission had very little discussion on the case. Comment from the public was received from the adjacent home owner to the east regarding drainage. His concerns were addressed by the applicant and staff. This minor subdivision is fairly straight forward. The City will require the water lines to be installed to each lot or financial guarantees provided for their installation to protect a future buyer in the event they are not installed by the applicant. Although the property includes some wetland area, wetland buffering would not be triggered with this application. Originally the applicant had requested a variance for the non-conforming front yard setback of the existing residence. Staff comments in the Planning Report discuss the possibility that granting a variance may be a premature action as no improvements to the home are planned. At the Planning Commission meeting, the applicant withdrew the request. The attached resolution approving the minor subdivision request is in order for City Council adoption. 123 North Third Street, Suite 100, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55401 (612) 338-0800 Fax (612) 338-6838 - 1202- RESOLUTION # 03- A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MOUND APPROVING A MINOR SUBDMSION FOR T1TF.

The property is currently zoned R-1 Single-Family Residential District; and WHEREAS, the property is currently developed with a two-story single-family home. Current use includes a 1½ story home with an attached double garage. The house has an existing nonconforming front setback of 23 feet along Idlewood Road. R-1 District front yard minimum is 30 feet. As currently held the property includes 35,122 square feet.

The proposed minor subdivision would cause lots 1, 2, and 3 to lose this status and change to non-lots of record as defined by the Zoning Regulations; and, Wlt'EREAS, the front yard of the existing structure is considered a non-conforming setback which is a pre-existing condition not created as a result of the proposed subdivision. The proposed subdivision does not change the status of the non-conformity and any future improvements to the home would be subject to applicable Zoning Regulations; and, WHEREAS, adjacent to this property is a large DNR identified wetland. The wetland consists of some tamarack swamp which is considered a higher value than many wetland complexes in Mound. The ordinary high water elevation of the wetland is 979.3 feet. Implementation of the surface water management plan does not require special buffering as a result of the subdivision. Typical practices to prevent erosion during construction will be required along with other items as determined necessary; and, WHEREAS, staff has reviewed the application and has recommended approval of the minor subdivision with conditions; and, WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed the application and has recommended approval with conditions. NOW TI-IEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, the City Council of the City of Mound does hereby approve the minor subdivision as requested by the applicants. 1. The Minor Subdivision is approved subject to the following conditions: Require utility and drainage easements at 10 feet in width at the perimeter of the plat and 5 feet in width along all common lot lines as approved by the City Engineer. Bo Require installation of water lines to each lot or an acceptable form of financial security if they are not installed prior to release of the plat. C.

The property is located at the comer of Oaklawn Lane and Idlewood Road and includes Lots 27, 28, 29 and 30, Block 1 of the Highlands. Current use includes a 1 ½ story home with an attached double garage. The house has an existing nonconforming front setback of 23 feet along Idlewood Road. R1 District front yard minimum is 30 feet. As currently held, the property includes 35,122 square feet. The applicant requests a 7-foot front yard variance for Lot 2 (as subdivided), bringing the front setback for that lot to 23 feet instead of 30 feet. All other R1 requirements would be met. The minor subdivision would create two additional buildable lots from the parcel. The existing residence would remain with a reconfigured driveway accessing Idlewood Road. The nonconforming front yard setback is an existing condition and not a result of the proposed subdivision. Recognition of a 23-foot front yard setback could allow a new home to be built at a 23 foot setback if the applicant's request was approved. Staff would suggest the existing condition not be recognized until such time when rebuilding the existing house is considered. Adjacent to this property is a large DNR identified wetland. The wetland consists of some tamarack swamp that is considered a higher value than many wetland complexes in Mound. The City surface water management plan does not require special buffering as a result of the subdivision. Typical practices to prevent erosion during construction will be required along with other items as determined necessary. Staff recommends the Planning Commission recommend Council approve the minor subdivision with the following conditions: 1. Require utility and drainage easements at 10 feet in width at the perimeter of the plat and 5 feet in width along all common lot lines as approved by the City Engineer. 2. Require installation of water lines to each lot or an acceptable form of financial security if they are not installed prior to release of the plat. 3. Park dedication fees be paid prior to release of the plat. - 1206- Planning Commission Minutes Staff recommends denial of the request to recognize the existing nonconforming front yard setback of the existing home. Reasons for denial are as follows: 1. The recognition of the existing setback may grant special privileges to the property for improvements not currently contemplated. 2. Recognizing the existing setback may allow improvements to the property that could be detrimental to surrounding properties. 3. Failure to grant a variance would not change the status of nonconformity and not harm the ability to make such request in the future. Discussion Greg Kenton, 5964 Idlewood Road, indicated that the drainage in the area is a big issue. Because so much water drains into the area it creates an overflow that drains overland through various points of the land under consideration. He also brought up the position of the proposed house on Lot 1 in relation to his house and the neighbor's to the east. Gordon clarified the elevations indicated on the survey. Henry Lazniarz, applicant, withdrew the variance application. Clapsaddle asked what the floor elevation on the house on Lot 1. Lazniarz said it was about 1,003 feet. Clapsaddle asked the same about Lot 3. Lazniarz thought about 989. MOTION by Michael, seconded by Clapsaddle, to recommend approval of the subdivision. MOTION carried unanimously Chair Michael asked if, on Lot 2, a car could back out of the garage without running into the fence. Lazniarz indicated they had discussed that and it looks to be no problem. - 1207- PLANNING REPORT Hoisington Koegler Group Inc.

(max) Variance 7 feet The minor subdivision would create an additional two buildable lots from the parcel. The existing residence would remain with a reconfigured driveway accessing Idlewood Road. A typical house plan submitted for Lot 1 shows a single story design. The site plan indicates a side entry two-stall garage utilizing the existing driveway location at Oaklawn Lane. A wood privacy fence is anticipated along the southern lot line. Submitted house plans for Lot 3 indicate a two story design with an attached two-stall garage. No sidewalks are present along the north side of Idlewood or east side of Oaklawn. The nonconforming front yard setback is an existing condition and not a result of the proposed subdivision. The applicant states the house was built sometime around 1918. Although a structural analysis of the home has not been performed, it is in a declining state and may be in need of remodeling or possible removal. Given the subdivision proposal which will likely result in two new homes, it would be a good opportunity to set the ground work for a conforming front yard if Lot 2 is redeveloped. Recognition of a 23 feet front yard could allow a new home to be built at a 23 feet setback if the applicant's request was approved. Staff`would suggest the existing condition not be recognized. Until such time when improvements can be identified, granting a variance with the subdivision may be premature. Adjacent to this property is a large DNR identified wetland. The wetland consists of some tamarack swamp which is considered a higher value than many wetland complexes in Mound.

Require utility and drainage easements at 10 feet in width at the perimeter of the plat and 5 feet in width along all common lot lines as approved by the City Engineer. 2. Require installation of water lines to each lot or an acceptable form of financial security if they are not installed prior to release of the plat. 3. Park dedication fees be paid prior to release of the plat. Staff recommends the Planning Commission recommend Council deny the request to recognize the existing nonconforming front yard setback of the home addressed at 2954 Oaklawn Lane. Reasons for not recognizing the existing setback are identified as follows: 1. The recognition of the existing setback may grant special privileges to the property for improvements not currently contemplated. 2. Recognizing the existing setback may allow improvements to the property that could be detrimental to surrounding properties. 3. Failure to grant a variance would not change the status of nonconformity and not harm the ability to make such request in the future. 123 North Third Street, Suite 100, Minneapolis, Milmesota 55401 (_~h'~'-.[°~800 Fax(612)338-6838 .of Mound MINOR SUBDIVISION APPLICATION Planning Commission Date: City Council Date: City Planner Public Works City' Engiheer Application Fo~ Escro~ Depei~ DNR Deficient Unit Charges? .

Apphcant'~l{~{ur, ~'/ ' ,~"/ Daf~ (~;ner's Slgnatur~ - Date Minor Subd Appllcatlon Page 1 of 1 Revised 03120/02 -1212- Variance Request The property was platted as "The Highlands" approximately December 15, 1910, and apparently, the existing home on the property was constructed sometime in 1918. When the property was originally platted the streets fronting the property were named Mound Avenue and Highland Avenue. The same streets are now named Oaklawn Lane and Idlewood Road. Our survey indicates that the existing house is situated 23.7 feet to the property line ahd 35 feet to the curb along ldlewood Road. The present city code appears to require a setback of 30 feet from the property line fronting o.n Idlewood Road for "Lots of Record" of the dimensions of the existing property. In this case, the existing home has been a nonconforming property. The proposed Minor Subdivision is not causing a conforming property to become nonconforming and is not causing the existing nonconforming home on the property to become more nonconforming. The location of the existing home does not appear to have caused any problem in the neighborhood. Some neighboring homes, constructed after this home, are also situated at less than 30 feet from their front property line. The City granted the owners of our property a building permit in 1985 for the construction of a deck attached to the front of the home, a portion ofwiaich is located less than 30 feet to the property line fronting on Idlewood Road. -1213- .When weather allows, we will make much needed architectural improvements to the exterior of the existing home and landscape the existing yard.. The existing driveway presently connects to both Oaklawn Lane and Idlewood Road. We will utilize a portion of the existing driveway to Oaklawn Lane for a new home to be constructed on the proposed Lot 1 of the Minor Subdivision mad utilize a portion of the existing driveway to Idlewood Road'for the existing home. The driveways will be resurfaced and a fence matching the fence already constructed on the property along Idlewood Road will be constructed along the property line separating Lots 1 mad 2 of the proposed Minor Subdivisibn. The new improvements and the improvements to the existing home will substantially enhance the property. The proposed Minor Subdivision is a reasonable utilization of the property. We can maintain neighborhood standards without the removal of a significant portion of the existing home constructed many years previous.

Mayor Pat Meisel Attest: Bonnie Ritter, City Clerk - 1241 - 5341 MAYWOOD ROAD MOUND, MN 55364-1687 CITY OF MOUND PH: (952) 472-0600 FAX: (952) 472-0620 WEB: www. cityofmound.com DATE: TO: FROM: SUBJECT: MARCH 6, 2003 MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL BONNIE RITTER, CITY CLERK 2002 DEPARTMENT ANNUAL REPORT PERSONNEL The City Clerk's Department consists of myself and Jodi Rahn, Secretary/Receptionist who has been with the City since October of 1997. Jodi's duties are vast, including the preparation of City Council and HRA packets, processing the incoming and outgoing mail, opening and sorting incoming water bill payments, processing homestead applications, and assisting in the administration of elections. She also is a "go-to" person for other Departments on special projects. HRA & CITY COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS There were 18 regular and 4 special meetings of the HRA in 2002. The Council met 22 times in regular session, 12 times in special session and held 3 budget workshops for a total of 37 meetings in 2002. Since I arrived in 2001, the HRA and Council minutes, along with resolutions, are kept on my hard drive so that they can be accessed readily. When questions arise about minutes before that time it involves manually going through the Council minute books to locate the information. This is not only time consuming, but frustrating. RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES In 2002 the Council adopted 123 resolutions. The resolutions that have to do with land use must be certified and recorded with Hennepin County. There were 17 ordinances passed, published and effective in 2002, with the City Code updated accordingly. I draft these resolutions and ordinances and forward them to the City Attorney for review. The City recognizes significant savings with this practice, rather than having the City Attorney take the time to draft these documents. printed on recycled paper - 1242- LICENSES~ PERMITS AND DEPOT RENTAL The City issued 40 General Licenses and Permits in 2002. This category includes liquor licenses, garbage collectors, tree removal, and public gathering, among others. These generated approximately $8,400 in revenues. Rental of the Depot generated $4,745.00 in 2002. RECORD MANAGEMENT This task continues to lurk before me. The "vault" (the room in the basement packed full of file cabinets and cardboard boxes) is the area screaming for attention. Presently all of the historic records of the City are stored there even though that area does not comply with standards for record storage. The vault is in the lowest level of the building, but is not fireproof, or fire resistant by any means. In fact, the sprinkler system runs through the ceiling of that room, and if activated, would soak all of the historic records of the City of Mound. Damage to the building by tornado would also be devastating. My Emergency Retrieval of Vital Records indicates that the first thing to do if vital records get wet, is to freeze them immediately, and then go to one of the companies that specializes in dealing with restoring these frozen records. This would cost the City tens of thousands of dollars. There was a records scanning device and software approved in the 2003 budget that I am in great hopes of obtaining. This device is not only important for retrieval of information, but storage of information as well. It allows for scanning of all documents in the vault (as well records of other Departments) and subsequent transfer of all information to CD's. One copy of the CD would stay at city hall for information retrieval purposes and the other stored off-site in a safe place. All historic information can then readily be retrieved from the CD's and printed to hard copy if necessary. Some of the historic records have been transferred to microfiche in the past. These records will also be transferred to CD's so that the obsolete microfiche equipment can be disposed of. CEMETERY Revenue from grave site purchases totaled $1200 in 2002. Jim Fackler is in charge of the cemetery maintenance and actual location of grave sites for burials and monument placement. I take care of the cemetery records and updating of the cemetery maps. The following locations were performed in 2002:13 for casket burials and 10 for urn burials; 10 for monument placements; and one locate and repair of a monument that settled below the ground surface. 2 - 1243- ELECTIONS Hoodie-Hoo !! The 2002 elections were performed successfully and according to state statute. Jodi Rahn and I were certified to administer elections by completing the necessary hours of training provided by Hennepin County and the Secretary of State's Office. In the past the City of Mound has only had one person in this position and I felt that it of the utmost importance that more than one person be able to administer and carry out the necessary duties of Election Administrator. I'm confident that if an emergency were to arise, Jodi could successfully carry out this mission. With the unusual circumstances of the general election, Jodi answered the call and is applauded for her performance. We were fortunate in having great election judges, some of which worked for the entire day (and night). DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS The City entered into one preliminary development agreement in 2002. This was with Mound Harbor Renaissance, LLC, for the redevelopment of the Lake Langdon, Auditor's Road and Lost Lake districts. NEWSLETTER There were three issues of the City Contact sent out in 2002. We are still investigating the possibility of obtaining the right software and knowledge so that the newsletter can be published in-house and then sent out for printing. INFORMATION RESOURCE Again, the calls I receive from the general public are too numerous to economically track, and range from questions on development to how to trap a beaver. Just in my short tenure with the City, I'm able to be a source of information for not only the public, but Department Heads, Consultants and staff. If there is a request for information on an event that happened before my time, I've been through enough of the archives to be able to know where to locate it. Without the information storage and retrieval in place, it's very time consuming to find archived information, but not impossible. If information is requested on a topic that occurred since I started with the City, I can put my hands on the documents very readily. 3 - 1244- X~r 87 ~089 18:Z8:47 ~io F~x -> 95Z4?ZOGZO ~ninis~r~or Fag~ 881 0£ 88Z LMC -FridayFax- A weetdy legislative update from the League of Minnesota Cities Senate freezes wi'file Governor limits Aside frorn cuts to LGA and the rnarket value hornestead credit, cities are between a rock and a hard place when it comes to proposals to restrict property taxes. The governor's budget proposal would impose strict levy limits on ALL cities which would prevent cities from replacing aid cuts 2003 and 2004 aid cuts with property taxes while the Senate Tax Comrnittee recently adopted a bill that would freeze property tax levies for ALL cities at the 2003 level for the next two years, which would also prevent any replacement of aid cuts with property taxes. Under the governor's plan, cities that have been covered by levy limits but have not "levied to the limit" would lose any unused levy authority. In the past, levy lirnits have been structured to allow cities to preserve unused levy authority for future needs. This provision in the governor's plan would effectively penalize those cities that were able to keep their levy increases below the very tight levy limits in place for taxes payable in 2003. To make matters even rnore difficult for local finances, the governor's proposal would apparently place new restrictions on levies for new debt while the Senate bill would prevent the issuance of new debt that would require a property tax levy increase in calendar year 2004 or 2005. The governor's proposal would allow cities to exceed the levy limit with voter approval at November 2003 general election. His plan would eliminate levy limits for taxes payable in 2005 and beyond but would impose a reverse referendum provision that would allow voters to challenge the council property tax levy decision. The League has testified against both of these levy restriction proposals on the basis that levy decisions should be made by each city council and not by the state legislature. Unfortunately, there appears to be no obvious "good" compromise between the Senate and the Governor's positions. The governor's tax plan was introduced as I-IF 751 on Thursday by House Tax Chair Ron Abrams and will be March 7, 2003 Page 1 introduced on Monday by Senator Bill Belanger as SF 748. The Senate property tax freeze is included in SF 330. Wage freeze bill heard in Senate Public employee wage and benefit freeze proposals had their first hearing on the Senate side Friday morning in front of the State Government Budget Division, chaired by Senator Jane Ranum (DFL- Minneapolis). The only bill on the agenda, SF 214 (Neuville R-Northfield) was not voted on, as this was only an informational hearing. SF 214 is the wage freeze bill, and does not include language to freeze contributions to health and dental insurance. A proposal by the Coalition of MN Businesses puts forth the views of aligning public sector health benefits with the private sector, as well as temporarily eliminating employer pension contributions for public employees, and imposing a two-year wage freeze. They presented their proposal, which has not been introduced as legislation yet this session. Testifying off behalf of the LMC were Bloofnington Mayor Gene Winstead, and Sherrie Le, HR director for the city of Maplewood. The counties joined the cities in emphasizing the need for local control during this economic downturn.

The legislative process to develop and adopt a state budget usually involves give and take between the governor and legislature, the blouse and the Senate, Democrats and Republicans and hundreds of other interests. Although the governor has a tremendous impact on the process due to the constitutional requirement that he propose a complete biennial state budget, in the end, a compromise is always reached which reflects, to a degree, the concerns and needs of all interested parties. Could this year be different? We have heard rumblings around the capitol that the House and even the Senate might decide to adopt the governor's proposal and go home. Why would legislators roll over and accept the governor's plan lock, stock and barrel? With a $4.2 billion state budget deficit and state tax increases apparently off-the-table, there is just no way to easily pare this arnount from the budget and not make one group or another unhappy. Yesterday morning, one long-time Republican legislator rnentioned ia a private conversation, "This just isn't any fun when yon don't have any resources." Some legislators might want to enact the governor's plan in hopes of having him be the focal point for all of the criticism. There might be another rationale behind this strategy. Some legislators have privately indicated that they are amazed at the lack of public reaction to the governor's plan and that perhaps the legislature should give the public what it wants--lower taxes and less government--with the hope that as the impacts are borne out, individual citizens will then comprehend the government services that benefit them and give clearer signals of their preferences for governrnent services. This year more than ever, the budget process is a zero-surn garne. Modifying the governor's budget proposal without new resources forces every On the other hand, it' legislators do not work to smooth the rough edges of' the governor's plan, they certainly could be criticized for abdicating their responsibility in the legislative process. Few legislators will want to go home facing irate constituents without the defense of an attempt to moderate the governor's plan. Clearly the governor's plan places a heavy burden of budget cuts on cities and the additional burden of extremely tight levy limits on future property taxes. Could it get better? Maybe. Could it get worse? Without a doubt. The aid reductions in the governor's plan and the tight levy limits proposed by the governor and the Senate property tax freeze are very real proposals. Contact your legislator now and let them know how severely the local government levy limits and aid cuts will impact your community. Not only an aid cut but a delay? As mentioned in this week's Cities Bulletin, the tax sections of the governor's budget proposal include a provision that would authorize the Commissioner of Finance to delay the payment of up to 15 percent of any appropriation to a city or a county for up to 60 days after the start of its next fiscal year. For example, up to 15 percent of the July, October or December 2003 LGA or market value homestead credit payments could be delayed until March 1 of 2004. As we mentioned in the Bulletin article, this power would most likely be used in order to help the state to meet its cash flow needs. This morning, we discussed this provision with Finance Commissioner Dan McElroy and although he could not definitively state whether he would need to exercise the delay power, he did state that the state's cash flow situation is "razor thin." Clearly, For more information on city legi'qal/v¢ i~:aue,, conlacl any mernbei' of the League of Minneaola Cities Intergovernmental Relations learn. 65'I .281.1200 or 800.925.1122 - 1247- Har 14 Z803 1B:88:47 Via Fax -> 95247206Z0 adainistrator Page 882 Of 884 -FridayFax- A weekly legislative update from the League of Minnesota Cities any further downturn in the state's economy could increase the chance that aid cuts as well as payment delays could occur. When coupled with the deep aid reductions and levy limits in the governor's budget, such a delay ah'host certainly creates severe cash flow problems for cities. Senate Property Tax Freeze heads to the floor The Senate bill that would impose a two-year hard freeze on city and county property tax levies and tight restrictions on the ability to issue new debt was rnoved to the floor after a brief stop in a Senate Rules Subcomrnittee. During the tax committee debate on the bill, Senator Julianne Ortman (R- Chanhassen) challenged the motion to refer the bill to the Senate floor. She raised concerns about the effect of the bill on school districts, cities and counties and she felt the bill should be considered by the Education Committee as well as the State and Local Government Operations Committee. Her challenge was not upheld and the bill will now officially go to the Senate floor. League staff is working on a variety of other issues of importance to cities. While much attention at the legislature is focused on the '04-'05 budget, conm~ittees are taking action on numerous bills that impact cities. Here is a sampling of the issues in which the League is actively engaged: March 14, 2003 Page 2 which city officials will be able to rely in case of future litigation alleging violation of Chapter 13D. Representative Don Borrell (Dist. 19B-Waverly), who is the author of the companion bill, I-IF 564, has agreed to consider changes incorporated in SF 316 as amended that the League, the MN School Boards Association and Mtn nesota Association of Townships support. Elections: HF 67 (Kahn), which would require that all city council members elected by ward be elected to new terms at the first regular city election after wards are redrawn, is now on General Orders on the House floor. In its current form, the bill now only applies to cities of the first class that do not have staggered terms for such council positions where the change in the population of any redistricted ward is 5 percent or more. The League has expressed concern that cities should continue to exercise authority to determine the terms and schedule of election for city council member ward positions. Current state election law also requires cities to wait to re-establish ward boundaries until after the legislature is redistricted. Some legislators have voiced concern that the bill does not sufficiently address the need to re-establish ward representation immediately after redistricting and may try to amend the bill on the House floor to make its provisions apply broadly to all cities with wards. Open Meeting Law: SF 316 (Marry), which would have required cities to pay the cost of administrative law judge proceedings to resolve complaints, has been substantially rnodifled to simply provide that the-Department or' Administration may issue nonbinding advisory opinions on Housing: I-IF 706 (Severson) will be heard next Tuesday in the House Local Government & Metropolitan Affairs Committee to clarify that language added in the '02 session does not alter existing local authority to regulate subdivision development. (Chapter 315 provides that the city and a builder may negotiate a development agreement that provides for a mix of housing in which some units are affordable to lower income households.)

SF 316 is now before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Representative Borrell is the author of the House companion (I-IF 565), which has not yet been heard in committee. Transportation: SF 825 (Rest, Belanger, Langseth, Marko, McGinn), introduced this past week, would give cities authority to irnpose fees for street maintenance and reconstruction and allow use of trip generation data to establish the program, which could also help meet the costs for upgrades to traffic facilities such as signals and turn lanes. Representative Beard (Dist. 35A-Shakopee) will author the companion bill in the House. Wine in grocery stores: S.F. 914 (Scheid, Kelley, Larson, Dibble, Kierlin)would require cities to issue an off-sale wine license to a supermarket located within the city. Word is a hearing will occur in the Senate before the first deadline of 4/4/03. The issue will go before the members of the Senate Commerce & Utilities cornmittee. The House bill will be introduced soon and through Regulated Industries. Sales of tobacco to minors: HF 561 (Gerlach) sets up an administrative penalty structure at the state level to deal with businesses who sell tobacco products to rninors. Once this bill went into effect, it March 14, 2003 Page 3 would take away a city's authority to impose harsher penalties to violators. The bill also requires sellers of tobacco to use electronic age verification equipment ~o check a buyer's identification. Local Impact Notes: I-IF 624 (Seifert) requires the commissioner of finance to prepare a local government fiscal irnpact note on an agency rule, if a governing body of a city, township, county, school district or sanitary district makes a request by a resolution. The House Governmental Operations & Veterans Affairs Policy committee amended the bill to prohibit rules from taking effect until approved by law if the cost of complying with proposed rules for a person or entity is more than $10,000 per year. Current law allows the chair or ranking minority member ora tax committee to request a local fisqal impact note on a bill or agency rules. Various organizations representing local units of government are supporting this bill as a way to identify the costs of implementation before administrative rules are adopted. On Wednesday, the House Governmental Operations & Veterans Affairs Policy committee passed an amended version of HF 624 and re-referred the bill to the State Government Finance committee. The Senate has not yet introduced a companion bill. · Municipal bid protest attorney fees: SF 414 (Bakk) authorizes the courts to award attorney fees, in addition to the costs of preparing an unsuccessful bid, to unsuccessful bidders in actions challenging the validity of municipal contracts under the uniform municipal contracting law.

Fackler requested input on these new designs from the commissioners and citizens present. Fackler also -1251 - reminded them that the equipment would be ordered in the spring and thatit would not be installed until the fall. A question was raised regarding swings. Fackler explained the space requirements for swings. Kristin Vandenheuvel, 6165 Sugar Mill Lane, then asked whether or not a more stationary swing (such as a tire swing like that at the schools) could be added. Fackler stated that he would check into this further. Taylor asked what the next step was. Fackler stated he needed to narrow the plans more, but more importantly, he needed to stake out the determination of the site plans. Beise asked the presented were more of what they were looking at.

Fackler' stated that the seating and the water feature could be added in 2004 with funds coming out of his repair budget. Landon also asked about the plastic edging mentioned on the designs, stating that he had never seen it anywhere else. Fackler stated that it is at Swenson Park. Beise stated that it i's Very attractive and is also flush with the ground. Landon asked if there would be grass in the area.

The Council also discussed the Park Dedication Fund and was in agreement that it is for park use. The State is in turmoil right now, but the Council prepared for this last year in planning their budget. Brown asked POSAC what they want him to bring back to the Council. Taylor stated that after they meet with the Council, there will be a clearer understanding of what POSAC's goals are. Beise asked that Brown bring POSAC's passion to the Council, regardless of his views on an issue. Brown stated he would do that and asked that when there is a hotly contested item, that a representative from POSAC attend the Council meeting.

I have spoken to city officials regarding your concerns and the conflict reductions that could be achieved by using a separate pedestrian phase. I have also discussed the situation with Jerry Smrcka, Traffic Operations Engineer, whom you spoke with other day. Since this is a "T" intersection with lower traffic volumes, it can function adequately even with an exclusive pedestrian phase. We are therefore willing to reconfigure the signal to have a separate pedestrian phase and monitor how the intersection performs. I anticipate that Operations will make the necessary field changes within the next two weeks. Once again, I appreciate you taking the time to call this matter to our attention and trust that the changes we make will improve the safety for pedestrians. Sincerely, Thomas D. Jo/'hnson, P.E.

BURKE CHIEF JUDGE HENNEPIN COUNTY GOVERNMENT CENTER MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA 55487-042~ (6 I ::' ) 348-4389 FAX (6mE) 348-5374 kevin.burke@co.hennepin.mn.us March 17, 2003 Ms. Kandis Hanson 5341 Maywood Rd Mound MN 55364-1627 Dear Ms. Hanson: The Hennepin COunty justice system faces a very real crisis. I write to you to ask that you join the effort to solve this community's crisis in justice. All of us know that the State of Minnesota, like many other states, has a significant budget problem. Nearly every commentator on state finance describes the situation as the worst since World War II. Article 1, Section 8 of the Minnesota Constitution provides, "Every person is entitled to a remedy in the laws for all injuries or wrongs he may receive to person, property or character, and to obtain justice freely and without purchase,: completely and without denial; promptly and without delay, comfortable to the laws?. The right of access to justice, as guaranteed by the Minnesota Constitution, is as threatened as the state's economy is fragile. ~The justice system cannot expect to be exempt from the changes that will be required out of fiscal necessity. I ask you not just to join in lobbying for adequate :funds for justice, but to helpmake the painful but necessary changes we must make. Governor Pawlenty has proposed a 10% cut to the court's budget, a 15% cut to the public defender budget, and a 10% cut to Legal Aid funding. These are real cuts. There will be less money spent on justice and unless we offer our eollecti, ve creativity, significantly less justice. The Governor had difficult choices to make. For reasons that I will explain, my hope is that the legislature will find a way to "soften the fiscal blow" to'the justice system. However, for that to happen, this communi~'s ~caders must become engaged L. the tegi.~lative process to a degree that they have not done in the past. Our courts are about people - the people who use them, and the people who mn them. Our courts are about poor people who need lawyers and self-represented people who need assistance from Legal Aid and the Self Help Center. 'There are no faceless "programs" for lawmakers and the Governor to cut. The potential reductions will strain an already burdened judicial system. Although this is a state that can Pride itself in having a progressive tradition when it comes to public services such as education and health, we have.not doneas well ~when it comes to' the 'ensuring the constitutional right to acceSs tojustice. Consider these facts:: :--- ,,.- -i · 'The'Legislative Auditor.found that Minnesota judges' caseloads already are 49% higher than judges in comparable states". 'By national standards, Minnesota is not particularly litigious. The fact is Minnesota has fewer judges per capita than other states. - 1260- That is in part why we have the highest caseloads in the country. Our ability to deliver justice in light of these caseloads is due to our adequate and dedicated staff. After this legislative session, presumably we are going to have the same number of overworked judges. The question is whether we will have adequate staff support that will enable the court to serve our community's needs. Public defenders statewide endured a 24% caseload increase between fiscal 2001 and 2002. On average, a Minnesota public defender carries 944 cases per year. American Bar Association standards suggest an annual caseload of 400 cases. A recent Legislative Auditor's report on the court system found that 70% of judges believe there are too few public defenders - many of whom are not well prepared because they have too little time to spend on eases. A 15% cut to the public defenders budget will require this judicial district to radically and unacceptably alter the criminal justice system. The Minneapolis Legal Aid office is down nine lawyers and two paralegals already, and is slated to lose five more staff members in the next year even without proposed budget cuts. Statewide, Legal Aid expects to mm away as many as 10,000 families that they could have helped two years ago. Volunteer lawyering has decreased 27%. We know we cannot provide a lawyer for every poor person who may need one. Moreover, the cost of legal services leads more and more people to elect to represent themselves. Our district has been proactive. We established a Self Help Center to make access to justice more understandable for people without lawyers. Frankly, for a judge it is far more difficult and time consuming to handle a case with an ill-prepared self-represented person. Approximately 25,000 people used the Self Help Center in Hennepin County last year. What happens to the Minnesota constitutional requirement of access to justice if there is no Self Help Center and Legal Aid must make further layoffs? Filings of major cases have increased twice as fast as expenditures on the judiciary during fiscal years 1996-2000. Court business tends to be counter-cyclical with certain aspects of the economy. Historically, court filings go up as economy goes down. If the economic predictions about our economy are tree, then courts, public defenders and Legal Aid may have more business in the next year or so. "A drop of 2 percentage points in unemployment would mean a 9% decline in burglary, 14% in rape and robbery and 30% in assault." (Centre for Economic Policy Research, Winter-Ebmer and Raphael, 2000) "Had unemployment been one percentage point higher in 1992, there would have been nearly 500,000 more crimes in the United States." (Centre for Economic Policy Research, Winter-Ebmer and Raphael, 2000) Even before these proposed budget cuts, the Hennepin County court had been absorbing many costs and postponing new staff positions to meet state and federal mandates and to maintain core operations such as funding employees' health care costs. Our ability to handle the 700,777 cases that were filed last year is due in large part to the excellent staffthat we have. It is inevitable that we will see that staff diminished in coming months. Currently we have a self-imposed hiring freeze. Just to illustrate what this means, seven judges have no court reporter, many have no law clerks and the guardian ad litem program has one person supervising 291 volunteers. In life, timing is important. The timing of this budget crisis could not have come at a worse time. As of July 1, 2003, all funding for Hennepin County District Court will come from the State of 2 - 1261 - Minnesota. Our court has been operating in a transition mode for several months. Our goal has been to ensure a seamless transition while we as a state judiciary move toward greater consistency and effectiveness. A consultant once told me that 80% of business mergers fail to achieve the merger objectives. This state cannot afford this merger to fail to meet its objectives. The state's 10 judicial districts traditionally have operated more like independent Baltic republics than a singular entity. State funding provides us with the opportunity to function as a mae branch of government. One goal of this merger is to ensure greater consistency and effectiveness. The transformation affords us the chance to redesign ourselves, capitalizing on the best practices already in place and reforming those that have not served us well. It is not a goal of this merger to dismantle the Hennepin County District Court to shore up the budget shortfall or years of fiscal neglect of other districts throughout the state. Without united commitment from Hennepin County's leaders, we could fail to meet the goal of ensuring consistency and effectiveness. Because we know that the transition to state funding would present both oppommity as well as risk, our district has embarked on the Baldrige Assessment, a rigorous process designed originally for the private sector to evaluate quality improvement efforts and to improve results. We are the first court in the country to pursue an assessment of this kind. By surveying our own court users and reviewing data fi'om other courts around the country, we have developed seven categories for improvement: leadership, strategic planning, customer knowledge, information and analysis, human resources, process management and results. Understanding that organizations tend to measure the things they care about and care about the things they measure, we have identified a number of areas for continued assessment. More importantly, our bench is committed to the proposition that fairness is one of our key areas of measurement. Fairness is one of the results for which courts should be held accountable. The Hennepin County courts will be judged by court users in the following areas: 1. Is the court perceived as fair to litigants and other constituents? 2. Is the court perceived as accessible by litigants and other constituents? 3. Do litigants perceive they are being listened to? 4. Do litigants understand the orders given by the court? 5. Do litigants perceive that cases are resolved in a timely manner? The public has a right to have answers to these questions. We cannot allow the current fiscal situation to undermine that effort. We intend to report the results regularly and to be held accountable for our performance. Initiatives like this can easily be sidetracked by the mistaken belief that we can't afford it. In my mind, that type of commentary translates into the belief that we can't afford fairness. You may have read the recent story about the altemative of closing a suburban courthouse. It is an option I hope we do not face. Courts in Oregon are open only four days a week as a result of budget cuts. In Marion County, Oregon, all but the most serious criminal cases, including felonies, have been continued until next July due to lack of public defender funding. Hiring freezes for judges and critical court staffare in place in 62 percent of state courts. To generate more revenue, 30 percent of state courts are collecting fines and fees more aggressively and 43 percent have imposed new court fees on litigants. Ninety-eight percent of the nation's cases are heard in state courts. The work of courts has a significant impact on the health of children, families, communities and even the economy. Across the country, too many courts, public defenders and Legal Aid offices are on financial life support. With your help we can avoid the calamity that has occurred elsewhere. 3 - 1262- We recognize that the state faces an incredible deficit. Frankly, I think that increasing revenue through court fees must be considered. Second, we need to establish priorities about where we will cut because we must recognize that there is a real fiscal problem. After the disposition of serious felony crimes, I suggest that juvenile and family courts are the highest priority. Realistically, we need to be open about alternatives to how we handle just about everything else. We are the largest judicial district in the state, with 61 judges, 17 referees and more than 600 employees. To take a step backward in funding or a step toward the drastic budget-cutting tactics of other states will have a negative impact on court users. We will do everything in our power to avoid that result, but we will have a greater chance of success with the combined forces of the bench and community leaders such as yourself. Calls or letters to your legislators supporting court funding would be timely and enormously helpful. Personal meetings are even better. With the significant turnover in both legislative chambers this year, we are working to educate new lawmakers about the important role the courts fulfill for their constituents. The implications of the transition to state funding make it important that all legislators, not just the few on court funding committees, understand the implications of what may happen to justice in the district.

STRATEGIES DURING CHALLENGING ECONOMI6 TIMES Ten Steps to Surviving a Budget Crisis By fim Prosser & Steve Apfelbacher Minnesota cities will soon be facing the impact of an unprecedented state budget deficit and many are suggesting that once again local governments must "learn how to do more with less" and become "lean." The fact is that cities have been practicing doing more with less and have been getting leaner for several years. Most of the relatively "painless" budget cuts have already been made. So this fact, along with the magnitude and likely duration of the state budget and economic crisis, requires a more comprehensive and strategic approach to survival. Below are top 10 best practices of cities that have effectively managed their resources and made the necessary changes in times of budget crisis, while still maintaining public support. 1. Size Up the Problem The bad news is that the direct loss of some portion of state aid is probably just one part of the impact faced by cities. The level of reduc- tions, timing and duration may not be revealed for some time. Stay in touch with the League of Minnesota Cities and your local legislators and others who may be the best source of this information. Understanding the short and long term impacts facing your community is the first step in developing strategies to cope with economic crisis. Factors that should be analyzed include: · Changes in payment dates · Federal, state and county service changes · Changes in the economy at the local, state and national level · Changes or elimination of regional programs and services 2. Communicate the Problem Gaining the public's support for changes in service and service delivery systems is critical to (BUDGET SURVIVAL continued on page 2) - 1268- (BUDGET SURVIVAL continued from page 1) sustaining those changes. The public can support changes only if it under- and accepts that the problem is A concerted effort must be made to forecast the problem that has been identified - both the short-term and the long-term impacts. 23. Establish the Process In order to develop the right solution to your budget crisis, it is important to "right-size" the process. If you are facing a short-term revenue problem you can look at a process that will help identify one-time fixes, such as deferred capital improvements: However, ff the problem is significant and sustained, you will have to look at systematic changes - the way you provide services and the level of services you provide. This requires a much greater public involvement process. It will be up to elected officials to ensure they understand the size of the problem and ensure that staff has accurately assessed the problem, for example not trying to fix a long-term with a short-term solution. role is developing options such as service delivery, options for reducing service levels, and identifying impacts on those service levels. It is the role of the public to provide suggestions and reactions to changes in those service delivery mechanisms as well as the outcomes for which the city is striving. Cities must always remember that well-meaning staff can develop ,what could be the right option, but if the public doesn't understand and support it, it will be difficult to sustain over the long mn. 4. Analyze Fund Balances Many cities are beginning to face that this is the time to use fund balances. It is important for cities to analyze cash flow requirements so they can deter- mine what excess funds are available. The reasons for analyzing fund balances before tapping into them are: a) Sufficient cash flow must be re- served because the receipt of revenues does not generally match the timing of b) Unusual and unanticipated situations arise which require greater expenditure for services, for example, heavier than Ehlers Advisor · Winter 2003 average snowfalls in a given winter. .c) Revenues can decline because economic conditions force the state to change the funding that they had provided or sales tax or property taxes may not meet anticipated levels. d) Reduction in fund balances will draw the attention of bond rating agencies. Establish a clear rationale for the use of fund balances, other steps that will be taken to balance the budget, and a plan to restore fund balances. 5. Review Your Strategic Profile What's your city's primary purpose? Some cities do not have a purpose (mission/vision) statement that identifies their core purpose. As a result, they begin to provide services that are not connected to their core purpose and that in fact would be better provided by others. Each community must ask what those impor- elected officials so that they can choose which outcomes could be eliminated to achieve budget targets. The public - residents and employees - can help identify these outcomes. It is important to remember this may have a demoralizing impact on em- ployees, but it is better to identify these cuts in an open fashion rather than have people face the impacts without providing input. 1t~ rrlOSt cct$'es, type c?f budget char~ges./'ctci,zg cities are so s~gn. gica'nt that th<y will chartge the woO,, that tant activities are and what investments are required that achieve the city's core purpose and establish priorities for those services. It must be recog- nized that a core service in one community may be expendable in a neighboring community. Elected officials must carry the thankless burden of sorting this out. 6. Balance Your Focus on Inputs and Outcomes Sometimes the problem is just too big to rely on one tactic alone - increasing a revenue source or reducing or eliminating a service. That's when it's important to prepare "outcome" budget options. This is accomplished by identifying the percentage of your budget that you must reduce. Staff would then prepare outcome options equal to twice the budget target. The options involve discreet budget outcomes with match- ing costs. For example: plowing streets after five inches of snow instead of two inches, or trimming all the city's boulevard trees in 12 years instead of 10 years. Those outcomes are provided to the - 1269- 7. Explore New Revenue Sources Most communities have some un- tapped internal and external revenue sources. Internal revenue sources may include enterprise funds, such as a liquor store fund or water and sewer fund. These are supposed to be self- supporting but in many cases don't necessarily pay their full share of general governmental services. These funds should be charged management fees for activities such as: the city manager or finance director spending time supervising enterprise activity; insurance for a specific building or for workers compensation or general liability or health insurance for employees; the cost of the finance department doing payroll and account- ing; building rental and maintenance, and building utilities. In addition, user fees, service charges and utility rates should be carefully examined to assure that costs are being recovered. Many communities are exploring establishing franchise fees or utility taxes as options to eliminating core services. 8. Phase-In the Changes To the extent possible, it easier to make cuts in services or increases in revenue if they can be phased in over a period of time. For example, if changes in outcomes result in staff reductions, look for the opportunity to use attrition - changing employee levels gradually rather than laying people off right away. As an alterna- tive to eliminating a recreation pro- gram, consider increasing fees gradu- ally over three years to cover the full cost of the program. 9. Review Service Delivery Options As we have seen in "Reinventing Government," cities are really in the business of buying and selling services. Therefore, it's important to under- stand what the appropriate level of service is -- a service indicator -- and if there are alternative means of obtaining that service for residents at a lower cost. Review sharing services with other governmental units. In most com- munities, this is the single most effective strategy to reducing service delivery costs. Typically, it is the most politically difficult measure as well. Most cities do some service sharing, but cities may find this the right time to aggressively pursue options where they justify certain capital equipment or retaining people with special expertise for a single community. Some cities are providing services because of concerns that the private sector cannot meet the high de- mands of the citizenry. An option for consideration is to identify those "service indicators" and then incorporate, them in contracts with private service providers. 10. Assess Service Transfers Cities need to determine if they are providing a service that others are able to provide. If a city is provid- ing a recreation program, is the county able to do it instead? Is the city providing social service funding or programs that could better be provided by a non-profit founda- tion? No city wants to face the significant economic or budget crisis, but at the same time it does provide a unique opportunity to take a good hard look at the services you provide and how you provide them. And it forces a critical look at the services that benefit your city most in achieving community goals. In most cases, the type of budget changes facing cities are so signifi- cant that they will change the way that people view government. Involve the public in a process that provokes discussion about the core purpose of your city, options to achieve service, and investments required to meet that purpose, in addition to an appreciation of the pain that reductions cause. And that will be key to sustaining support for the actions facing many cities. Ehlers Advisor ,, Winter 2003 May I Deadline to Amend Business Subsidy Criteria Any city that adopted business subsidy criteria prior to May 1, 2000, has until May 1, 2003, to comply with a new state requirement to include a "specific wage floor" for the wages to be paid for the jobs created. The wage floor may be stated as a specific dollar amount or may be stated as a formula that will generate a specific dollar amount. This applies to criteria adopted prior to May 1, 2000. Basically, a business subsidy provides benefits like reduced rate loans, special grants or other forms of special assistance, including tax increment financing, from a city or state agency to a business. In order to obtain a subsidy, businesses must match a set of criteria that has been developed by the city or state agency. All projects have to be consiStent with a city's comprehensive plan and any other set of plans or guidelines for the community. Please contact your bond counsel or financial advisor for more details.

Refinancing municipal bonds, however, is considerably more complex than refinancing a home mortgage. Even the terminology is different; we talk about refunding- rather than refinancing - a bond issue. Another key term is calling bonds, which means to pay off bonds before their scheduled maturity date. This article introduces other key concepts of bond refundings and explains why the conditions available in today's market are making it difficult to refund most existing bond issues. When Can We Call? One key factor when considering a refunding of municipal bonds is the call feature on the existing bonds. The call feature is set prior to the sale of bonds, and determines which bonds can be called and at what times. When a series of bonds are issued that mature over a of time (e.g., 20 years), the call usually designated as being 8 to years after the year of issuance. Bonds maturing on or before the call d~te cannot be called 0.e., paid off prior to their scheduled maturity date). Bonds maturing after the call date can usually be called, but only on or after the call date. So, for example, ff you have bonds that were issued in 1995 and were scheduled to mature in 1996 through 2015, the call date may be February 1, 2005. This means that the bonds maturing through 2005 cannot be called, while the bonds maturing in 2006 through 2015 can be called on or after February 1, 2005. Refunding Basics In its simplest sense, refunding requires that you issue new bonds and use the proceeds of the new bonds to call the old bonds (and usually to pay all of the up-front issuance costs). If the interest rates on the new bonds are lower than the rates on the old bonds by a large enough margin, your future debt service costs will be reduced. By Joel Sutter There are two basic types of bond refundings. The simplest type, a current refunding, cannot be done earlier than 90 days before the call date. In a current refunding, new bonds are issued and the net proceeds of the new bonds are used to pay off the 01d bonds on their call date. This is a relatively simple financial transaction, and works very well if you are near or past the call date on your existing bonds. But a current refunding cannot be done if the calt date on your bonds is more than 90 days in the future. In these cases, it may be possible to do the second basic type of refunding, called an advance refunding. How Advance Refundings Work When advance refunding bonds are issued, the net proceeds of the new issue are placed in an escrow account and invested, usually in U.S. Govern- ment Securities. In the most common type of advance refunding, called a crossover refunding, the escrow account is used to make interest payments on the new bonds until the call date, at which time the remaining funds in the escrow account are used to call the existing bonds. In an ideal (or ',efficient") advance refunding, the interest rate earned on the investments in the escrow account is exactly equal to the average interest rate on the new bonds. (Federal regulations do not allow the interest rate on the investments to exceed the average interest rate on the bonds.) Then, for example, if you are calling $5 milh'on in bonds, you can place $5 million in the escrow account and the investment earnings in the account will be sufficient to make the interest payments on the new bonds until the call date. Negative Arbitrage The problem with advance refundings in today's market is that the interest rates available on govemment securi- ties for the escrow account are even lower, by historical stan- dards, than interest rates on bonds. As a result, the interest rate on investments for the escrow account will be lower than the interest rate on the new bonds. For example, we recently explored an advance refunding for a school district with bonds callable in 2009. We estimated that the average interest rate on the new bonds would be 4.32%, while the average interest rate on the investments would be only 3.18%. This is a condition known as negative arbitrage. It means that, each year until the call date, the interest expense on the new bonds (paid from the escrow account) will be greater than the interest revenue in the escrow account. To make up for this excess interest expense, we would need to issue more bonds to create a larger escrow account. For example, an advance refunding of $5 million in existing bonds might require issuing $5.4 million in refunding bonds. And the effect of issuing that much in additional bonds usually more than offsets the benefit of lower interest rates. So right now, most advance refundings will either save very little or actually increase future debt service expense. What to Do If you have bonds outstanding with a call date s6me time in the future, all hope is not lost. If Interest rates stay even close to where they are now, you may have an opportunity to do a current refunding of the bonds when the call date is near. Furthermore, if short-term interest rates increase, it may be possible to do an advance refunding some time in the future. One of the services that Ehlers performs for our clients is to monitor their existing bond issues as market conditions change, and to determine whether it may be financially viable to refund the issues. If this happens, we will contact you to explain the potential for a refunding. In the meantime, if you have specific questions about your bonds or would like to see our best estimates of the impact of a refunding, please contact us. i=: '1:: ¢':~'::W'l ~ D ~' ii' .i 5 Eiilers & ~°iiatei-ii:cOmmitted t° :i:,:;: Rosevil!e, Mil Office; 3060 Centre Pointe Drive.

He also stated that there were four applicants wishing to be .considered for an available license who had submitted a letter of intent to apply for a license prior to 2/1/03. A random lottery was held by the Board, with Foster drawing the folloWing four Companies in the following order of priority: 1) Sunstar Cruises, Inc. 2) Lady of The Lake, Inc. 3) Wayzata Bay Charters, Inc. 4) Custom Charters '."

Tonka Bay Sales, new multiple dock (minor change) license application to install a new walkway from a tunnel on the land near BSU's 13 and 14. Foster asked for background from staff on the proposed application. Harper made the following comments: - 1277- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 19, 2003 Page 3 · Mr. Gabriel Jabbour, owner of Tonka Bay Sales, has submitted a new multiple dock license application, with minor change, for Board consideration. The application has been submitted for the addition of a walkway that leads to the existing approved dock. This new main walkway is used in conjunction with the newly constructed tunnel under the regional trail for access to the parking lot. · Currently, the site is approved for 24 Boat Storage Units (BSU's), on approximately 475' of continuous shoreline. The proposed change would not result in an increase in the number or size of BSU's at the multiple dock facility. The applicant is considered a legal conforming facility with a special density license and a BSU density of approximately 1:20'. · LMCD Code allows the issuance of a new multiple dock license without a public hearing and without requiring the payment of an additional fee, provided the changes proposed meet a number of criteria. Staff has reviewed the criteria and concluded that that the proposed change meets the criteria outlined in LMCD Code. · The MN DNR and the city of Excelsior were provided copies of the application on 2/10/03 and staff had not received comments from these agencies. · Staff recommended Board approval of the proPosed application from Tonka Bay Sales. Nybeck stated he had received a phone call from Miles UcGrath, Excelsior City Administrator that stated the city supported the application. Valdesuso commended the applicant on his work to improve this property on Excelsior Bay. MOTION: Babcock moved, McMillan seconded to approve the new multiple dock license, with minor change, application for Tonka Bay Sales for the 2003 boating season. VOTE: Motion carded unanimously. B. Wayzata Yacht Club (Site 1, Site 2, and DMA Facility), consideration of renewal, without change, multiple dock license and District Mooring Area (DMA) applications for the 2003 season. Foster asked for background on the proposed appliCation from staff. Harper made the following comments: · Wayzata Yacht Club (VVYC), has submitted 2003 renewal without change multiple dock and district mooring license applicationS. WYC Sites 1 & 2 are considered legal, non-conforming multiple dock facilities with 129 Boat Storage Units (BSU's), on approximately 540' of continuous shoreline at Site 1 and 26 BSU's on 326' of shoreline at Site 2. The applicant has also submitted a renewal without change district moodng license application for 20 BSU's in their district moodng field. · Typically, staff presents renewal without change multiple dock and distdct moodng license applications to the Board for approval under the consent agenda. However, staff believed the Board should be aware of the special circumstances at this facility. · LMCD Code Section 1.06, Subd. 11 states that the issuance of a license or permit by the District does not relieve any person from the responsibility of obtaining required licenses, permits or other permission from any federal, state, municipal, county or other govemmental agency having jurisdiction over the lake. Pdor to board approval of renewal multiple dock and district moodng area licenses, LMCD staff sends municipal zoning certificates to the cities that the facilities are located in. These forms certify that the license applicant has met the zoning ordinance and any other city permit or license requirements of the City. · The City of Wayzata did not sign the municipal zoning certificates for the three VVYC facilities and wrote a letter, dated 12/18/02, explaining their reasons. - 1278- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February '19, 2003 Page 4 o Staff recommends approval of renewal applications for VVYC Site 1, VVYC District Mooring Area and WYC Site 2, subject to conditions set forth at the 2/27/02 Board meeting. LMCD Board approval would not relieve the applicant from the responsibility of meeting all other governmental agency requirements. Ambrose stated that he was very pleased to hear that the VVYC had made application for a conditional use permit for site 2 with the City of Wayzata, adding that he believed it would be presented at the 3/3~03 planning commission meeting. He stated he would be comfortable approving the licenses with the conditions imposed in 2002. Harper explained that these conditions for site 2 would be included on the 2003 license since the application is a renewal without change multiple dock license application. Nybeck stated that some discrepancies were discovered during 2002 inspections in regard to boat storage with the approved site plan. He explained that two boats continued to be stored in BSU's that were to be removed in connection with the installation of the jib crane. The manager of WYC explained that they would like to store the boats in the old location until the issues with the city are resolved and the jib crane is installed. The two boats would then be relocated to the approved BSU's on the island in accordance with the 2/19/02 site plan. Babcock stated he was comfortable allowing boat storage at the old location until such time as the jib crane is installed, as long as they do not also store boats at the new location along the island. MOTION: Babcock moved, Ambrose seconded to approve: 1) 2003 renewal without change multiple dock license for Wayzata Yacht Club Site 1 and Wayzata Yacht Club Distdct Mooring Area License, and 2) 2003 renewal without change multiple dock license for Wayzata Yacht Club Site 2, subject to all conditions set forth per 2/27/02 LMCD Board action. VOTE: Ayes (9), Abstained (1, Foster); motion carried. C. Howards Point Marina, consideration of renewal, without change, multiple dock license application for the 2003 season. Foster asked for background on the proposed application from staff. Nybeck made the following comments: · Howards Point Marina has submitted 2003 renewal without change multiple dock license appiication for Board consideration. Typically, staff presents renewal without change multiple dock license applications to the Board for approval under the consent agenda, however, staff believed the Board should be aware of the special situation at this facility. · Howards Point Marina is currently licensed for 58 Boat Storage Units (BSU's) on 252' of lakeshore frontage on South Upper Lake in the City of Shorewood. With a BSU density of 1:4', they are considered a legal, non-conforming facility for density purposes. They are also considered a legal, . non-conforming facility for dock length and it appears for side setback requirements. In July of the 2002 season, staff conducted the annual inspection of this multiple dock facility with Board Member Tom Skramstad. This inspection revealed three deficiencies to the approved site plan and License requirements. They included: 1) there were three rental pontoons being stored in unauthorized locations and the marina was reminded that all watercraft at the facility, including rental watercraft, needed to be stored in authorized BSU's on the approved site plan, 2) there were dock - 1279- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 19, 2003 Page 5 sections installed on the north side of BSU ~5 that were not included on the approved site plan, and · 3) it appeared that there might be unauthorized storage of watemraft in the applicant's parking lot on the east side. of Howards Point Road. Further details of this inspection were forwarded to Mr. Peltier in a letter, dated 9/27/02. · At the 11/13/02 Regular Board Meeting, the Board was updated on discussions LeFevere and I had with representatives of Howards Point Marina on Code pertaining to ~Off-Lake Storage" Facilities on Lake Minnetonka, Section 2.045. At this Regular Meeting, the Board directed LeFevere to write a letter to Howards Point Marina to further investigate this matter and to communicate to them that their 2003 renewal application for the facility could be impacted by the investigation. The Board also directed staff to notify Howards Point Marina that the other two deficiencies referenced in the 9/27/02 inspection letter need to be cleaned up · LeFevere sent out a letter, dated 1/3/03, consistent with the direction of Board at the 11/13/02 Regular Meeting. In this letter, LeFevere referenced Code Section 2.045 and stated that the facility was not currently.licensed for this type of activity. He stated that Howards Point Marina must do one of the following: 1) demonstrate to the District that the use of the launching ramp and associated storage of watercraft off the lake does not meet the definition of the Code requiring a license for an off-lake storage facility, 2) demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Board of Directors that Howards Point is "grandfathered in", 3) cease off-lake storage, cease use of the launching ramp, or take such steps as arenecessary to assure that watercraft stored at the off-lake facility do not use the launch ramp, or 4) apply for an off-lake storage facility license, which would require a substantial reduction' in the number of watercraft stored at the facility. · Subsequently, staff met with David Albrecht, President of Howards Point Marina, who indicated there has been off-lake storage activity occurring on their property for a number of years and they have been receiving income for this service. They cannot conclude at this time how many boats had been stored in the lot prior to the grandfathering date of 12/28/87. Albrecht had obtained records indicating the income received for this service for years going back to the 1970%. Albrecht stated that he would check into this to further verify the number of watercraft that were being stored as off-lake storage either during or prior to the 1987 season, and then submit an application for consideration to grandfather that number for off-lake storage purposes. · In the meantime, staff would recommend the Board approve the 2003 Howards Point Marina renewal, without Change, multiple dock license application with the following conditions: 1) no off-lake storage allowed in the lot on the east-side of Howards Point Road until approved by the Board of Directors, consistent with Code Section 2.045, and 2) all watercraft storage, including rental boats, and installation of dock structure must be consistent with the approved site plan, 11/2/94. Babcock questioned how the Board would procedurally back license this facility to 1987 since in 1994 the applicant had made some cha~ges to their license and approved site plan and this off- lake ~torage issue should have been included in their application at that time. He stated in 1994, they had agreed to operate their facility in a certain manner and questioned whether that. precluded the Board from back licensing the facility to 1987. MOTION: Knudsen moved, Van Hercke seconded to approve the renewal without change multiple dock license application from Howards Point Marina for the 2003 season, subject to the following conditions: 1) no off-lake storage allowed in the lot on the east-side of Howards Point Road until approved by the LMCD Board of Directors, consistent with LMCD Code Section 2.045, and 2) all watercraft storage, including rental boats, and installation of dock structure must be consistent with the approved 11/2/94 site plan. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. - 1 280- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February t9, 2003 page 6 E, Additional Business. There was no additional business. PUBLIC HEARING · 5th Street Ventures, LLC (Marina Center Site), new multiple dock license aPPliCation to expand a conforming multiple dock'facility from 10 to 13 Boat Storage Units (BSU's) on 1,320' of continuous shoreline. FOster opened the public hearing at 8:22 p,m. and asked for baCkgrOund from staff, Harper made the following comments: · 5th Street Ventures, LLC, submitted a new multiple dock license application on 11/21/02 for Board consideration. In the past, the facility has been licensed as PM Pizza Enterprises, Inc. With 10 BSU's on approximately 1421' of continuous shoreline. The applicant is considered a legal conforming facility with a BSU density of aPproximately 1:142~, · A public hearing was conducted at the 12/18/02 Regular BOard Meeting to consider the proposed new multiple dock ticense application submitted by 5th Street Ventures, LLC for'13 Boat Storage Units (BSU's) on Seton Lake. The Board discussed and considered the proPoSed applications; however, the Board at this meeting took no action. The Board discussed four topics at this meeting. They inCliJded: 1) the proposed dock layout and the 32' size of the BSU's, 2) the loCation of the Wetlands in the area and whether there is enough room to maneuver around the island, 3) water depths in the area and whether it would be adequate for 32~ long boats, and 4) ovemight boat storage versu9 transient slips. The consensus of the Board was for staff to further investigate the proposed pl,a.n~ to verify.whether it would fit in the area, whether it would impact Wetlands in the area, and to identify water d~Pths in the area. LMCD staff met with representatives from 5~ Street Ventures at the Site on 1/13/03 and took several water depth measurements, The applicant submitted a site plan that"further documented the observations made at,a 1tt3/03 omsite meeting. The pending application and updated site plan were placed on the 1/22/03 LMCD Board Meeting agenda, The pending application was discussed atthe 1122/03 LMCD Regular Meeting, With further discussion on water depth measurements and the proximity 'ofthb vegetation on the'revised Site plan.

In general, Julie Ekman and DarYl Elilson frOm ihe MN DNR did not object to - 1281 - Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 19, 2003 page 7 the proposed project, as long as it does not further intrude into the cattails and it does not require dredging or removal of vegetation. Both of them expressed concern about potential expansion of this project in the future. Bill Weeks from the City of Spring Park stated that this site has a long history of transient use and he expressed concern about how traffic would be handled at this site because all of the proposed BSU's would be for overnight storage purposes. · Based on past board discussion, staff believes the Board should focus its discussion on the storage location for the charter boat, the size of BSU's and overhang restrictions. Foster stated he was troubled by the size of the boats and the propOsed, overhang allowance for BSU's 1-12 on the proposed site. plan. He suppoded the proposed site Plan if the overhang allowance was taken away. He was not troubled by the location or the size of BSU 13 involving the maneuvering of the Charier boat in and out of the dock into the channel. He stated through conversations with Phil Johnson, representing 5th St. Ventures, and information from the charter boat owner, the charter boat can back out of BSU 13 by using it's twin screws and turn the boat to stay out of the main channel. Babcock stated he would like BSU 13 to meet the same requirement that side opening BSU's have with side setbacks. He supported a setback requirement to the channel equal to the length of the BSU, which is 50', noting that the proposed site plan does not meet this. He explained if the applicant were to decrease the width of BSU 12 and shorten the length of the main dock, BSU 13 could move further away from the channel and could possibly meet the 50' distance from the channel. Knudsen asked if this charter boat has been parked in this location on the dock in the past. Foster stated this dock has historically been approved as a port of call for the charter boat Fantasia. Over the years, the multiple dock license for this site has been approved for 10 transient. BSU's with no ovemight boat storage. The ovemight parking of the charter boat Fantasia has been an issue for a number of years at this site. Knudsen asked if there had been any complaints issued with the Hennepin County Shedffs Water Patrol or the 'LMCD in regards to the charter boat backing into the channel Nybeck stated that there had not been any complaints that he was aware of. He further explained that he had spoken to Lt. Brian Johnson with the Water Patrol who had indicated that he was not entirely troubled with the charter boat stor~ as it is proposed, However, Johnson has indicated that he would prefer it be'relocated so it would not back directly into the main channel,, Babcock stated he was not opposed to this site stodng a 50-foot long boat; however, BSU 13 as proposed was not an optimal location in relation to navigability in the busy main channel. Van Hercke asked if Babcock would be open to approving the location of BSU 13 as proposed and monitor it for a season. Babcock stated it would be an option to approve a limited term license to be reviewed pdor to the 2004 season. Van Hercke asked if there were limits on the size of boats at multiple dock facilities. Nybeck stated, that the limit of size of boats on Lake Minnetonka was 20' wide by 70' Iong~ - 1282- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District '* Regular Board Meeting February '!§, 2003 page 8 Babcock asked LeFevere for clarification of the subjective criteria for evaluating multiple dock license applications. LeFevere explained that in exercising its discretion in granting or denying licenses, the LMCD Board might consider, among other things, the following that could apply to the 5· Street Ventures application:. · Whether the proposed facility will create a volume of traffic on the Lake in the vicinity of the facility, which will tend to be unsafe or which wi!l cause an undue burden on traffic upon the Lake in the vicinity of the facility. · Whether the proposed facility will be compatible with the adjacent development. · Whether the proposed facility will affect the quality of the water of the Lake and the ecologY of the Lake. · Whether adequate sanitary and parking facilities will be provided in COnnectiOn with the proposed facility. · Whether the facility will obstruct or occupy too great an area of the publiC water in relationship to its utility to the general public. Foster asked if anyone from the public had any comments. Mr. Randy Bickmann, 4652 West Arm Rd., stated he had concerns about the potential prop wash caused by large boats navigating through the narrow channel south of the dock and the disturbance of nearby vegetation. He expressed concerns about the potential of crime on the docks since it is an isolated area. Mr. Mike Hatch, 4638 West Arm Rd., expressed his concerns about large boats navigating through the south channel and disturbing the bottom of the channel. He stated the Board had been dealing with issues like this on Six Mile Creek and should treat this area similarly. He stated if the applicant were to limit the navigation through the south channel, he would be in favor of it because the rental Slips would decrease the boat traffic in the area compared to the past transient use. Foster explained that the previously proposed site plan had angled slips with an expectation of eniry from the narrow channel from the south and the new proposed site plan has perpendicular slips that would accommodate access from the main channel to the west. Ms. Norina Dove, 4652 West Arm Rd., stated she had concerns with damage to the wetlands due to this project and questioned where boaters that have traditionallY used this site for transient dockage will go. Suerth emphasized that there will be less boat traffic in this area as an Overnight rental fa~i!ity rather th~n a transient facility. He stated this conversion would have less Of an impact on the wetlandS;~ Dove also expressed her.'concem about expansion o~ this faCility in the future. There being no further comments, Foster closed the public headng at 8:00 p.m. Seuntjens stated he could support the application if there was a 30' long boat restriction for BSU'S 1-12, adding that he was fine with the proposed size and location of BSU 13. He stated he would like to restrict navigation through the south channel due to shallow water depths. McMillan stated the proposed boat size for BSU 1 was too large due to the shallow water depths and that she would like it reduced. She added that she would like a 30' boat storage restriction on BSU's 2-12. She entertained the idea of a sunset clause for BSU 13 so when the charter boat Fantasia went away, the BSU would be removed. She was concerned about the size of the boat and the proximity tothe main channel. - 1283- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 19, 2003 Page 9 Babcock emphasized that the current approved site plan does not allow a boat to be stored in that location on the dock so there is nothing to sunset. He stated any previous overnight storage that has occurred there has been illegal. He asked the applicant about the .parking available at the facility and what their lighting plan was for the dock. Mr. Phil Johnson, representing 5th Street Ventures, made the following comments: 5th St. Ventures also owns the Uadna Shopping Center and there will be ample parking for users of the dock. · There are existing Iow intensity lights installed in the piers of the main dock that are on a timer and motion detector. He explained that they had been working with an electrician 'who has inStalled'lighting on docks around the lake and knows the standard set by the LMCD. His client would add ample light on the dock to deter cdme, yet the source of the possible new light post would not be visible from the channel and he would work with staff to ensure they would meet LMCD requirements. · He depicted the distance from the end of BSU 13 to the edge of the traveled channel, 45', in a drawing enclosed in the board packet. He believed that there is enough room for the charter boat to turn within the 45' and not be in the channel as depicted on the drawing. Van Hercke asked if the applicant is proposing that the boaters use the south channel. Johnson stated he had looked at photographs back through the 1950's and that there had always been a channel in that location. Water depth measurements have been taken and they indicated greater than 4' water depths down the channel. He questioned how someone could prevent the public from navigating through the public water of the south channel. Foster stated.he would be concemed about putting a restriction on the south channel. Babcock stated that staff had received comments from the MN DNR stating theY did not have an objection to the proposed project as long as it did not further intrude into the wetlands, require dredging or the removal of vegetation. He emphasized to the applicant that the proposed site plan is about as' large as ~this facility could get. He stated he had heard rumors of a phase two at this site that would require dredging or removal of vegetation, adding tha~ he would have problems supporting any further expansion. I~e encouraged the Board to consider what to do with this site in Iow water years, noting that' some of the proposed slips may be unusable. When the Lake level falls below elevation 928.0 feet NGVD LMCD Code alioWs th~ B~rd to :issue multiple docks temporary Iow water Variances in locations ot configarations hot otherWise allowed 'bY Code.

He explained to the PUblic that it is not the.LMCD's purview to specify how dOcks are used so the board cOUld not tell the applicant to'i'nstall transient BSU's for the businesses on land. MOTION: Babcock moved, Seuntjens seconded to aPprove 5th Street Ventures, LLC new multiple dock license application for the 2003 season, subject to the folloWing conditions: 1) Watercraft sizes will be limited to the length of the BSU, further defined by the horizontal measurement from the foremost to the aftermost points of the watercraft, including all equipment and attachment~ in their normal operating positions; 2)'the apPlicant must submit a lighting Plan, to be reviewed by staff, that - 1 284- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 19, 2003 Page 10 includes Iow intensity lights or light sources that are not visible from Seton Channel; 3) this facility does not further intrude into the wetlands requiring dredging or removal of vegetation; 4) the installation of a "No Public Parking" sign on the end of the dock if all the BSU's are rented or signed accordingly if transient BSU's are provided; 5) no use of the south channel except in emergencies; 6) no temporary Iow water variances shall be granted during periods when the Lake level drops below elevation 928.0 feet NGVD; and 7) approval of BSU 13 shall be approved for the 2003 season, subject to review and comments by the Hennepin County Sheriffs Water Patrol prior to the 2004 season. VOTE: Ayes (9), Nayes (1, McMillan); motion carried. McMillan stated that she was opposed to the proposed size of BSU's 1 and 13 as a potential permanent BSU location. Van Hercke requested to change her vote on the motion from an Aye to a Nay. Foster stated if there were no objections, he would allow Van Herck to change her vote to Nay. There were no objections. 3. FINANCIAL A. Audit of vouchers (2/1/03 - 2/15/03). Foster reviewed the audit of vouchers as submitted. MOTION: Babcock moved, Knudsen seconded to approve the audit of vouchers as submitted. VOTE: Motion carded unanimously. B. Additional Business. There was no additional business. 4. ADMINISTRATION A. Staff recommends a motion to accept a resignation letter from Jan Briner, effective 2~6~03 Nybeck stated that. there has been a motion to ~accept letters of resignation in the past by the Board under the consent agenda. He stated because of Jan's long tenure with the District, he believed that it would not be appropriate to have this motion under the consent agenda. He explained that she submitted her resignation letter on 1!23/03, with her last official, day of employment of 2J6/03. This letter was unexpected, adding that she had been employed with the District for.approximately the last 10 years. Babcock stated he be eyed that it. would be appropriate to recognize her employment.with the LMCD at the 2004 "Save the Lake" Recognition Banquet Dinner next February. Because of the timing of her resignation and the fact that the next Recognition Banquet Dinner is approximately one year away, he believed that it would be appropriate for staff to preepare a draft resolution of appreciation for Board review at an uPcoming meeting~ MOTION: Babcock moved, Van Herke seconded to "with personal regret" accept the resignation letter from Jan Briner, effective 2/6/03, from her position of part.time Administrative Clerk for the LMCD. - 1285- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 19, 2003 Page 11 VOTE: Motion carded unanimously. B. Consideration of staff recommendation for compensation adjustment for part-time Administrative Secretary, Karen Anderson. Nybeck stated that he and Harper had recently conducted a six-month performance appraisal for Karen Anderson, pa~t-time Adm nistrative Secretary for the District. An overall grade of above average was communicated to Ms. Anderson for the period of 7/17/02 through 1/24/03. Her anniversary date with the LMCD is 7/17/02. He stated dudng this review period, she was considered a part-time employee who was regularly scheduled 24 hours a.week. With the recent resignation of Jan Briner, Ms. Anderson has agreed to adjust her regular work schedule from 24 to 32 hours per week. Nybeck recommended a 3.8% . adjustment to her houdy rate from $13.25 to $13.75, retroactive to 1/17/03. MOTION,, Ambrose moved, McMillan seconded to approve a compensation adjustment from $13.25 to $13.75per hour, retroactive to 1/17/03 for part-time Administrative Secretary, Karen Anderson. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. C, Staff update on appointment of Board members whose terms expired in January 2003. Nybeck stated a letter was sent out in October to eight LMCD member cities informing them that the term for their appointed Board Member would expire on 1/31/03. Confirmation has been received from seven of the eight cities. New Board.members have been appointed from Excelsior and Greenwood. Orono, Sh0rewOodl Tonka Bay, Wayzata, and'Wood!and have confirmed re-appointment of their Board members. The Cityof Victoria. is still working on appointing a new representative. BabCqck explained that the LMCD. state enabiing legislation calls:for Board Members to be appointed for th'ree~year terms., He e~plained, that because, the app cat on of theLMCD ordinances are unique and takes some time for new Board members to c°me up to ,speed, it would, be difficult and undes table to have ~11 .Board Members te~s end at:the same time. This could possibly result in a completely new inexperienced B°ar'd'i He furtt~'er explained tibet ihe had requested that SOme of the cities app~'int their rep~seniative~ for one 'twOi, or thr~ year terms so. the dlstr ct'Could get back to a staggered three year sched.u.ie · Suentjen~ asked LeFevere if the.

Foster requested LeFevere to research that issue and report back to the Board. - 1286- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February '1§, 2003 Page 12 D. Additional Business. McMillan asked if on-sale intoxicating liquor license renewals were sent to the applicants by certified mail. Nybeck stated they were not. Nybeck clarified that the charter boat company that did not retum its renewal on-sale intoxicating liquor license apPlication on time this year was sent the application to the address that was specified on its 2002 application but one partner did not get it from his other partner prior to the deadline. Babcock stated that he wants responsible people holding liquor licenses on Lake Minnetonka and if they can't submit applications on time, they should not have a license. McMillan stated the loss of a liquor license could have a large impact on a charter boat business. The Board directed staff to send future on-sale intoxicating liquor license renewal applications by certified mail, to verify that the applicants receive the applications. EWMIEXOTICS TASK FORCE A. Consideration of possible request to MCWD for funding of the EWM Harvesting Program. Foster asked for an update on this project. Suerth stated at the 2J14/03 EWM/Exotics Task Force Meeting, there was discussion of a memorandum prepared by Wenck Associates for the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD). This memorandum, which was wdtten by Rebecca Kluckhohn, indicated that mechanical harvesting of Eurasian watermilfoil (EWM) is the most cost effective way of managing the exotic species on Lake Minnetonka and the removal of phosphorous from the lake, noting that it could benefit water quality. She stated that the UCWD'might see this as a very cost-effective way of improving water quality on Lake Minnetonka and could possibly fund the LMCD harvesting program. Dudng the 2003 EWM harvesting season, core samples could be taken from the loads of the trucks that haul away harvested milfoil from Lake Minnetonka. These core samples could be tested for water and phosphorus content and the trucks could be periodically weighed. This analysis of the EWM harvested would be used to more accurately determine how much phosphorus is being removed from Lake Minnetonka by the harvesting program. Foster stated that Kluckhohn indicated that two missions for the MCWD are to improve water quality and improve recreational use of the water bodies within the watershed district, which would inclUde Lake Minnetonka. A concern was raised that currently the LMCD harvesting program's focus is on the recreational use of the lake and if the MCWD were to partially fund the program, the focus could change to removal of phosphorus in unpopulated areas of the lake. The initial indication was that the MCWD would not change the focus of the LMCD. He recommended that the LMCD should request the MCWD to possibly fund the harvesting program for the 2004 or 2005 season. LeFevere stated the LMCD should notify the MCWD that there is an interest in obtaining funding from them for the harvesting program and the MCWD could then determine how the request should be handled. A letter or a petition may be required. The program could be possibly handled through a joint powers agreement. - 1287- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 19, 2003 Page 13 Foster stated that he would like to work with staff and the district attorney to further pursue this idea with the MCWD through a letter or petition. He stated it might be rejected by the MCWD; however, he believed that it is worth a try because there is strong support from the member cities. MOTION: Ambrose moved, Valdesuso seconded to direct Foster to work with LeFevere and Nybeck towards requesting funding from the MCWD for the EWM harvesting program. LeFevere stated that he believed it would be appropriate to make this request of the MCWD through a letter and to request their feedback on the various ways that this Program could be financed and the steps that would have to be taken. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. B. Additional Business. Suerth stated that staff is updating the zebra mussel affidavit requirement for special event applications because some of the special event coordinators were not responsibly handling this permit requirement. FOster stated he had lunch with the President and the Executive Director of the Lake Minnetonka Association (LMA) and they have indicated that they are intending to raise money for the zebra mussel access inspection program. Nybeck stated that Dick Osgood has communicated that the LMA is in agreement with the proposed expanded Zebra mussel pilot inspection program, which they feel is an appropriate goal for 2003. They find the request for the LMA to contribute additional money appropriate and intend t0 raise $5,000 to $10,000 by mid Mamh for the joint project. 6. SAVE THE LAKE B. Additional Business. McMillan stated that she had met with the Legacy FoUndation, which is possibly interested in looking into a lakescaping project on a portion of the Excelsior commons. She also stated that the buoy lights will be discussed at the 3/12/03 meeting with examples of one and two mile lights. 7. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR REPORT Nybeck stated there were a number of informational items in the packet or handout folders. These included a 2/4/03 Lakeshore Weekly News article, a2003 LMCD Board Meeting Schedule, and uPdated public and private Board rosters. Babcock stated that on the schedule the meetings are specified as lhe second and fourth Wednesdays of every month. However, there has only been one meeting in November and DeCember in the past and he recommended that this should be documented on the LMCD Board Meeting Schedule. MOTION: Babcock moved, Knudsen seconded to hold only one Regular Board Meeting in November and December 2003. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. - 1 288- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 1(3, 2003 8. OLD BUSINESS Page 14 Van Hercke stated that a press release was sent out in the spring of 2002 summarizing key LMCD activities. She asked the Board how they felt about sending one out in 2003 and if the Board thought the expense of contracting to have this professionally written was worth the money. Foster stated that he believed the contractor did an outstanding job of writing the press release sent out last spring; however, he would not feel comfortable spending money for the same purpose this spring because of economic concerns faced by the various governmental bodies. Van Hercke believed that she would not have the time to author the press release herself or to coordinate the project. The general consensus of the Board was to utilize the local newspapers for these purposes rather than prepare individual press releases. 9. NEW BUSINESS Suerth stated that he would like a task force formed to discuss ice safety concerns on Lake Minnetonka and public education. He recommended that the LMCD, Sheriff's Water Patrol, MN DNR, and the LMA should be involved in this task force' to discuss what could be done to better educate the public about the dangers of ice. Valdesuso stated that he had previous experience on Lake Minnetonka as a special deputy and he questioned whether you could further educate the public because some people generally do not listen and will endanger themselves. Knudsen expressed concem about liability for the LMCD in declaring unsafe ice conditions because the ice is always unsafe during the winter. Babcock complimented the efforts of the Sheriffs Water Patrol and the MN DNR on educating the public on unsafe ice conditions this winter. The general consensus of the Board was to discuss this subject at a later time. 10. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 10.00 p.m. Albert O.

Youth Activities Sandy Rauschendorfer-temp chair, Jean Ann Thayer, Kathy Jones, Kim Erickson Heiar $75,000 for the skate park!!!!!!! Wow, now the real work begins. Look for the skate park this summer. Special thanks to the skate park task force for all the tireless work. NYPUM, the summer minibike program, is making referrals. If you know of any middle school students that could benefit from the behavior modification program contact Leah. The planning continues for a Grandview middle school youth center, drop in for before and after school. Parent Education Sandy Wing, Sandy Olstad, Bill Erickson, Amy Taggart Westonka.org is up and running! Magnets are ordered to promote the site. This is a great family resource! Korwin Kroenberg will be the parent speaker next October. The parent group along with parent advisory groups in the schools will partner with this event. Community no update Margaret Holste, Cathy Bailey, Ginny Lazno Communications no update Anne Wilbur, Carol Olson Executive no update Craig Anderson, Carol Olson, Margaret Holste, Sandy Wing, Sandy Raushendorfer, Mary Hughes Alliance for Families and Children in Hennepin County A group attended the Primary Project training. We continue to work on a "fit" for our school district. The Alliance arranged a legislative briefing to show the success of our collaborations in Hennepin County. Hopkins school superintendent, Minneapolis school board member and Melanie DeLuka, Community Ed Director and Alliance Co-chair, did a great job talking about how the collaboratives benefit children and families. Funding is tight and we continue to do good things with less money. ** Minutes ** Westonka Healthy Community Collaborative February 26, 2003 12:00 - 1:30 pm Attending: Mary Goode, Mary Hughes, Kathy Jones, Kim Erickson Heiar, Ginny Lozano, Bill Anderson, Bill Erickson, JeanAnn Thayer, Sandy Wing, Todd Truax, Kevin Erickson, Amy Taggart, Leah Weycker, Sandy - 1311 - 3/21/03 Page 3 of 4 Rauschendorfer: chair and guests Angie Revier and Carol Miletti with the American Cancer Society. Minutes and agenda: Bill Erickson made a motion to approve the minutes and agenda with no changes, JeanAnn seconded seconded. Motion passed. Announcements: Mary Goode, parish nurse from Bethel Church, handed out a NAMI - MN flier on an 11 week program on mental illness. It may be held near us. Two really big announcements: 1. We received a check for $75,000 for the skate park from the Marafi Foundation. The foundation is part of Wara Real estate and Chuck Alcon presented the check. A picture was passed around and the task force members were noted, including the kids. We discussed giving recognition to the students that helped design the skate park and logo. MWHS and GMS announcements, youth leadership awards, article in the paper, TV show on the announcements. We should change the sign at the skate park site with a bow and "coming Spring 2003". Put this announcement on the web site, drawings and display at the high school. 2. The web site is up and running. Westonka. org We will, make magnets to promote the site and ask for corrections from the local listings. The site is set up to document how many hits we receive and other data that can be used for outcome reporting. Two huge projects accomplished! We need to celebrate our victories. Work groups or advisory groups were discussed. We will have them on an on-call basis to help with funding requests and their own projects, as opposed to the set monthly meeting some have attended. This will ease the time commitment and still be functional for the WHCC. Kathy Jones often gets asked what the process is for funding requests. They should go through Leah and the requestor must fill out the A and B form we developed. Parent Advocate: We introduced Amy Taggart, our new parent advocate. She will officially start her job on March 3. She will be helping with Primary Project. She is budgeted for 10-15 hours per week. If others have jobs for Amy related to advocating for parents, contact Leah. Leah handed out a flier on Collaboratives and LCTS funds, it will be directed at legislators. American Cancer Society, Angie Revier and Carol Milletti: Currently they are working in communities as CAT's (Community Action Teams). They have an emphasis on colorectal cancer and would like volunteers to assist in information about screening for colorectal cancer. Breast Cancer awareness month is October, but there is already a group working on this. The time commitment is once a month and would like ideas on how to reach the public. Community Center/Resource Center: -1312- 3/21/03 Page 4 of 4 Because of the resource mapping we participated in, a community center was the one thing that every group addressed. The executive group met with Cheryl Fischer to discuss possible development of a community center. Cheryl said that she believes that the majority of her council is in favor of a project like this. There may be a possible development opportunity in the near future. Cheryl wanted to attend this WHCC meeting but was unable, We will continue to have discussions with Cheryl. This project may need to have several different sites and uses to address all the needs addressed. More came up at the meeting. (youth center and preventative health care and maintenance) Leah would like help on how to go forward with the resource mapping. If anyone has ideas about how to address the many issues, contact Leah. This is a huge task. Sandy Wing made a motion to adjourn, Mary Goode seconded. Adjourned. Mary Hughes, recorder - 1313- 3/21/03 RAMSTAD REPORTS INSIDE: Commerce Secretary Evans and Congressman Ramstad tour Brooklyn Park company and meet with employees to discuss the Administration's jobs plan. Ramstad Pushes Jobs Plan Secretary of Commerce Don Evans recently visited our Congressional district at the request of Congressman Ramstad "to listen to the people who make our economy work." During their visit to a BrooklYn Park carton plant, RamStad said, 'q'oo many people have lOst their jobs and are hurting. Congress must act now to jumpstart the straggling economy and create jobs to put people back to work." "We need to pass the President's economic growth plan, which will create 2.1 million new jobs," said Ramstad. 'q'his jobs plan will accelerate income tax rate cuts, increase child tax credits, eliminate the marriage penalty, end the double taxation of dividends and increase expensing for small business investments." "This jobs plan will stimulate investment capital, create jobs and provide real relief to taxpayers," said Ramstad. -1314- ~ Congreggional 'Update ocmnation at war terrorism, the sluggish and health care costs soaring, the new Congress is our against economy ed on homeland security., pocketbook securi _ty and health care securi _ty. These and other major issues facing the 108t~ Congress are summarized below. HOMELAND SECURITY. The President recently signed into law a bill I supported to create a new Department of Homeland Securi _ty. This new department consolidates 22 former agencies dealing with homeland security into one streamlined cabinet-level department to prevent and respond to terrorist attacks. POCKETBOOK SECURITY. I support the President's economic growth_package, which will stimulate economic growth and create 2.1 million new jobs. This $674 billion package is bold, balanced and fair and will accelerate income tax cuts, increase child tax credits, eliminate the marriage penalty_, boost expensing for small business investments and eliminate the double taxation of dividends. HEALTH CARE SECURITY. Without further delay, Congress needs to pass a prescription drag benefit for Medi- care seniors, Medicare reimbursement reform and a Patients Bill of Rights. To lower prescription drag costs, Congress also needs to lift the ban on re-importation of drags from countries like Canada and make generic drags more readily available. Congress should also expand access to health surance by providing refundable tax credits and vouchers to e uninsured. Finally, Medical Savings Accounts should be expanded and medical malpractice reform should be enacted. EDUCATION. Congress should fully fund its promised 40 percent share of special education costs to our local school districts. This federal funding would free up state and local tax revenues for local education needs such as reducing class size, new computers, school constmction or whatever the local education needs might be. During the last session, I voted against H.R. 1, the bill that mandates another layer of federal tests on local school districts, because it is another unfunded federal mandate on Minnesota schools. During one of Jim's school visits, he told Head Start studeiits and tefi~hers, "Head start ~vbrKs because it gives parents a voice in how to best meet children's educational needs." WELFARE REAUTHORIZATION. Congress should reauthorize the 1996 welfare reform law, which has decreased welfare rolls by 54 percent, by requiring able-bodied welfare recipients to make the transition from welfare to work. Better education and job-training incentives are needed, as well as adequate child care resources. TRANSPORTATION. I strongly support legislation to reauthorize highway and other transportation programs to decrease congestion on our roads and highways. ~i~CItEMICAL DEPENDENCYAND MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT PARITY. I am the chief sponsor of l~l[egislation to end discrimination against people with mental illness and chemical dePendency. My legislation would put chemical dependency and mental health treatment on par with treatment for other diseases and prevent insurance companies from electing barriers to treatment. -1315- o o 10.
