(moved to 6D) 6. Public Hearin.qs A. 2004 Street Reconstruction Project Assessment Hearing John Cameron presented a history of the project and reviewed the project costs and assessment figures. John Dean reviewed the legal requirements and procedure on how to handle objections to the assessment. Mayor Meisel opened the public hearing at 8:04 p.m. Gene Adams, 6215 Bay Ridge Road, has an objection letter on file and expressed to the Council concern over the difference in the final figures and the preliminary figures given at the December 9th Council meeting. He also stated that he feels the Council could have done better than a 6% interest rate. He informed the Council that his driveway is not satisfactory. It has gouges and cracks that need to be repaired. Meisel informed him that the City will check on the condition of his driveway. Gary Hart, talking for Nancee Wright of 2700 Westedge Boulevard, also has an objection letter on file. He stated that he called the City and informed whoever he talked to, that they are not living on Beachwood, which was improved, but on Westedge Blvd, and were told that they wouldn't be assessed anything. Then they get a letter on October 1st that says they're being assessed for curb and gutter. They don't park on Beachwood, and don't use that street. John Cameron explained that they are 2 -3204- Mound City Council Minutes - October 26, 2004 on a corner lot and will be assessed a ½ unit charge, plus lineal footage for the curb and gutter. Hart stated that his lineal footage is 90 feet and the assessment roll says 101' Cameron will check on this. Hart stated that if he has to file in district court he will, because being told they are not included in the project was deceitful and if the person at city hall doesn't know for sure, they should say they don't know. He also said he didn't get a notice for the improvement hearing. He was informed that Nancee Wright's name was on the improvement hearing list and included in the affidavit of mailing. Jeff Skelton, 1770 Baywood Shores Drive, stated he was at the improvement hearing and Mayor Meisel told him that they would not be putting an assessment on the dock lots because that street needed to be there for snow plows, emergency vehicles, etc. Meisel stated she can't remember saying that, but the audio tape will be reviewed to determine if that was said. Irene Bazewicz, 2362 Bay Ridge Road, stated she did not receive notice last year that this was going on, and it was later verified that her name and address were on the affidavit of mailing of improvement hearing notice. She doesn't feel Bay Ridge Road needed to be replaced and it gets very little use. Her objection was that she didn't get a chance to say anything about the project and the road was a mess all summer long. She has a written objection on file with the City. Leanne Kelly, 1712 Baywood Shores Drive, also objects to having the dock lot assessed. Meisel informed her that the tape of that hearing would be reviewed to see what was said regarding the assessment of the dock lots. Larry Johnson, 1724 Baywood Shores Drive, also objects to the lake lot assessment. It is non-buildable, has no city water or sewer and feels that the cost should be obsorbed by the whole city. He stated that at the December meeting the Council stated they were going to replace the streets and they objected because they've had so many water breaks. He said the Council stated at that time, that they would research how many water breaks there have been in an area to determine whether to replace the watermain. It was the decision to replace the watermain and now the council is trying to burden the homeowners with resurfacing at the same time, when really there is nothing wrong with the road except for the patches from all the water breaks. He has a problem with the homeowners paying for the dock lots. As homeowners they are stuck helping replace the watermain that had to be replaced anyway. He also stated that the sanitary sewer line was lined, and residents had to shut off their water. When turned back on, sewage blew back into their toilet and made a mess of their bathroom. He questioned that process and John Cameron explained that all the sewers were televised and any that needed repairs were done with a technique where they reline with a plastic liner. Carlton Moore will check on why the backup occurred into his house. Osmek informed him that this was a street project, not a water project. 3 -3205- Mound City Council Minutes - October 26, 2004 The only reason utilities were repaired is if they are in need of repair, the time to do it is before the street is resurfaced so that the new street won't have to be dug up again. Dave Laube, 6000 Aspen Road, asked what his correct assessment figure is and the process and timeframe for paying it, and Cameron answered these questions. Michael Ivers, 5971 Gumwood Road, didn't remember getting an improvement hearing letter and said he was present to contest the assessment. A letter of objection was also presented. He had questions regarding his driveway apron and stated that he is not satisfied with the way the apron was tied into his driveway. Meisel informed him that someone would come and look at it. Henry Sandoval, 6370 Bay Ridge Road, stated that he feels the improvement on Bay Ridge went fine, and he was able to talk to the engineer several times. He voiced concern over a drainage issue with his neighbor and Carlton stated they are well aware of this and are working to rectify it. Gary Wambold, 6343 Bay Ridge Road, stated he feels the initial estimate could have been more accurate instead of having additional charges come up after the soil borings were done. Cameron explained that when the preliminary report was prepared, they just visually assess the streets and get their estimates. To go through the expense of soil borings before the project is ordered would be foolish. Wambold then asked how he is being assessed because he doesn't directly abut an improved street, but shares a common driveway. He was informed that he wasn't charged lineal footage for the street improvement, but was charged one unit for the project. Gloria Heinrich, 5926 Gumwood Road, asked about the assessment deferment process and was informed of such. Bruce Mclntyre, 6143 Beachwood Road, stated that he is happy with his street. They did a nice job and he is real happy with the project. Carol Norberg, 6015 Aspen Road, asked if the road were done and then dug up and redone, will they have to pay for that? Cameron stated they pay for it once. If the contractor has to dig up the street and repair, that's the contractor's responsibility. She asked Cameron about the final assessment figure and how it was arrived at and he informed her of such. Upon no further comment, Mayor Meisel closed the public hearing at 9:05 p.m. The Council then discussed the dock lot assessment issue. Meisel stated that she doesn't remember stating that the dock lots wouldn't be assessed, but does remember 4 -3206- Mound City Council Minutes - October 26, 2004 the dock lots being brought up at the improvement hearing. The audio tape will be checked to see what was actually said regarding this. John Dean stated that even if the audio tape shows that the Mayor stated that these lots wouldn't be assessed, that doesn't preclude them from being on the final assessment roll because all of the property owners were notified of the improvement hearing, and the assessment hearing. MOTION by Brown, seconded by Meyer to adopt the following resolution. All voted in favor. Motion carried. RESOLUTION NO. 04-125: RESOLUTOIN ADOPTING ASSESSMENT FOP. 2004 STREET RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT - LEVY #16151. B.

Anderson, et al, v. City of Mound At 9:35 p.m. Mayor Meisel announced a 10 minutes recess, to be followed by the Council going into Executive Session regarding John M. Anderson, et al, v. City of Mound. The Council reconvened at 10:47 p.m. City Attorney John Dean informed the public that the Council met in closed session to discuss a draft settlement agreement received in the Anderson vs. Mound - Dreamwood Addition case. Part of the reason for the lengthy discussion was that the City Council was unable to accept the terms of the draft settlement and the attorney representing the City was directed to meet further with the other parties to attempt to arrive at an agreement. 8. Action on Status Chanqe for Commons at 2'!28 Centerview Lane Jim Fackler explained that in the 1970's the city conducted a study of the commons areas for a Use Plan. The former owner wasn't using this particular dock site and had no problem with its removal at that time and the site was removed for non-use and the area designated as a wildlife preserve. The owner is now requesting that this area be reclassified back to Type D to allow one dock in front of the property at 2128 Centerview Lane. It was noted that this is a Iow water site and there could be limited boat access during Iow water levels. MOTION by Hanus, seconded by Osmek to approve changing the commons at 2128 Centerview Lane to Type D to allow one dock in front of the property. The following voted in favor: Brown, Hanus, Meisel and Osmek. The following voted against: Meyer. Motion carried. 9. Action on 2004 Rip-Rap Proposal Jim Fackler presented a proposal for rip-rapping for 700 lineal feet of Waterbank at $48,300.00, and 164 lineal feet of Idlewood at $11,316.00. MOTION by Osmek, seconded by Brown to approve rip-rapping 700 lineal foot of Waterbank at $48,300.00. The Idlewood rip-rap will be postponed until 2005. All voted in favor. Motion carried. 10.

Consent Agenda Item No. 5 (F) Proposed Resolution Revision 5341 Maywood Road Mound, MN 55364 (952) 472-3190 PLANNING REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Sarah Smith, Community Development Director DATE: November 3, 2004 SUBJECT: Request for waiver of platting approval APPLICANT: Randy Valek and Mike Mueller, Jr. PLANNING CASE NUMBER: 04-28 LOCATION: Lots 23, 24, 25, 38, Division, Mound, Minnesota ZONING: R-2 Residential COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Residential 39, and 40, Block 3, Lake Side Park; A.L. Crocker's 1st SUMMARY The City Council will review a subdivision request from Randy Valek and Mike Mueller, Jr. for Lots 23, 24, 25, 38, 39, and 40, Block 3, Lake Side Park, A.L. Crocker's 1st Division for "waiver of platting" approval pursuant to City Code Chapter 330:10 to reconfigure the subject property and create the following two (2) parcels: Parcel A Lots 23-25 Parcel B Lots 38-40 BACKGROUND INFORMATION Property Details. A survey of the subject property prepared by DeMars-Gabriel Land Surveyors, Inc. dated August 6, 2002 was submitted with the application and shows the existing and proposed configuration. A waiver of platting application for the subject property to create (3) lots was submitted in 2002 (PC Case No. 02-27) but was withdrawn by the application prior to action by the City Council. The subject property is approximately 24,181 SF (.51 acres) and was a former tax-forfeit parcel that was sold via public auction by Hennepin County and purchased by the applicants. -3269- 4. There are presently no structures on the property. .......... 5. Whitethe current application does not involve any construction activities~-~theapplicant has demonstrated a proposed building pad on the subject lot(s) which meets the requirements of the R-2 District. 6. Xcel Energy maintains a fifty (50) foot permanent easement that runs through portions of the subject property (Document No. 434209.) There is a small wetland located on portions of Lots 23, 39, and 40. A wetland delineation report was prepared for the subject site in 2002 which was reviewed by Kelly Bopray, MFRA Soil Scientist. City staff understands that the wetland is not affected by the current proposal. In the event that alterations are proposed in the future, the applicant and/or any future owner/representative will be responsible for all appropriate permitting pursuant to the 1991 Wetland Conservation Act (WCA.) 8. The proposed new homes for Parcel A and Parcel B will need to be located on the west side of the existing Xcel easement. Property Tax Status. According to Hennepin County property tax records, the subject property is considered to be one parcel. A copy of the current property information from Hennepin County has been included as an attachment. SUBDIVISION REVIEW PROCEDURE City Code Chapter 330:10 states that any parcel of land, either platted or unplatted that has been combined for tax purposes or other reasons, cannot be re-separated or divided without an approved subdivision or a waiver of the platting requirements of the subdivision ordinance. A waiver of the platting requirement may be granted by the City Council after receipt of the background information provided by City staff. The waiver of platting and release of the tax combination may be approved if it is determined to be in compliance with all City codes. The City may impose conditions to the waiver. Applications for waiver of platting do not require review by the Planning Commission. However, if it so desires, the City Council may remand the application to the Planning Commission if it determines that their advice will be helpful in determining if the request meets the City's planning and zoning objectives. ISSUES ANALYSIS Comprehensive Plan. The Future Land Use Map included in the Mound Comprehensive Plan guides the property for future low-density residential use (1-6 units / acre.) -3270- Zoning. The subject property is zoned R-2 Single and Two Family Residential. Single-family homes are a permitted use in the R-2 District. The following table includes the lot area, width and setback requirements for the R-2 District: Lot Area Width Depth I Front Side Setback(s) Rear Setback Setback R-2 6,000 SF 40 FT 80 FT 20 FT 10 FT 15 F'I' (Note: Corner lots have double front setbacks of 20 ~.) Non-Lot of Record Status / Hardcover. In the event the waiver of platting 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-2 zoning district including minimum side yard setbacks ten (10) feet and hardcover not exceeding (30) percent. Adjacent Land Uses - Draft Land Use Plan. The subject property is surrounded on all sides by low-density residential use. CITY DEPARTMENT REVIEW Copies of the request and all supporting materials were forwarded to all City departments for review and comment. All written comments received to date have been summarized below: Fire Chief Pederson No comment. Police Chief Kurtz No comment. Public Works Supt. Skinner Updated surveys to be submitted with building permit(s) need to include existing and proposed water and sewer services for Parcel A and Parcel B. Also, refer to any and/or all comments from City Engineer and Public Works Director City Engineer Cameron Refer to memorandum dated September 5, 2002. -3271- Soil Scientist Bopray (2002) A delineation report for the small wetland on the site-was prepared by SchoelI & Madson on orabout June 13, 2002. A site visit was conducted in June 2002 by City staff following submittal of the report. There are no wetland issues associated with the current waiver of platting application. The applicant may request a "No Net Loss" decision by the City if the wetland will not be impacted. In the event any alteration of the wetland is undertaken as part of a future construction project, the project will need to the follow the rules and procedures of the 1991 Wetland Conservation Act. Parks Supt. Fackler No comment. ADDITIONAL COMMENTS Approval of the proposed waiver of platting does not constitute or guarantee future approval of any building permit(s) or any other necessary approval by any other public agency. In the event the waiver request is approved, the property will no longer qualify for "lot of record" status. RECOMMENDATION City staff recommends that the City Council approve the application from Randy Valek and Mike Mueller, Jr. for a waiver of platting for Lots 23, 24, 25, 38, 39 and 40, Block 3, Lake Side Park A.L.

We have completed our delineation of the wetland basin on Lots 23, 24, 25, 38, 39 and 40 of Block 3, Lakeside Park A.L. Crocker's Ist Division, Mound, Minnesota. During our field investigation of the site, we identified one wetland basin as a PEMA, type 1 wetland based on soils, vegetation and hydrology. The wetland is not a DNR Protected Water. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife National Wetland Inventory map and the City of Mound's wetland inventory identify the wetland on the subject site as a PEMC, type 3 wetland. The wetland on the subject site may qualify for the "de minimis" exemption, based on the classification, size and location of the wetland. This exemption applies to wetlands that are less than 2,000 square feet; are classified as a type 1, 2, or 6 wetland; and are located outside of the shoreland. A replacement plan for the draining or filling of a wetland under the "de minimis' exemption is not required. We trust that the attached analysis we have previded will be useful in your planning efforts and look forward to working with you on future aspects of this project. Please contact us if you have any questions.

L. Crocker's 1st Division Mound, Minnesota Summary Based upon the boundaries indicated on the site map provided to Schoell and Madson, Inc., we have identified one wetland basin. The wetland was field identified on June 12, 2002. Total recorded rainfall at the Minneapolis International Airport for the week preceding the delineation was 2.75 inches. Total recorded rainfall for the month of May was 2.83 inches; 0.41 inches below normal. Review of U.S. Fish and Wildlife National Wetland Inventory maps indicate a PEMC wetland exists on this property. There are no DNR Protected Waters on the property. Project Location and Site Description The subject site, Lots 23, 24, 25, 38, 39 and 40, Block 3, Lake Side Park A. L. Crocker's 1st Division, Mound, Minnesota, is located in a residential area in Mound, east of Commerce Boulevard, between Spruce Road and Tonkawood Drive. The property is approximately 24,000 square feet in size, with one wetland basin located close to the eastern property boundary. The lot is wooded, with a power line clearing creating an open swath down the center. The defined wetland basin is located within this clearing. Characteristics of Wetland Basin The wetland on the property was delineated according to the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manuel. The wetland basin is 620.5 square feet in size. Basin 1 Wetland 1 consists of a Type 1 (seasonally flooded) basin as defined in Wetlands of the United States (USFWS Circular 39; Shaw and Fredine 1971). Basin 1 is classified as a PEMA (Palustrine Emergent Temporarily Flooded) wetland based on the Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (FWS Publication 79/31; Cowardin et al). -1- Schoell & Madson, Inc. -3280- Project 63514-002 Wetland Delineation ........................................................... June2002 A transect was placed at wetland boundaryflag 5 to observe hydrology characteristics, soil types and vegetation within the wetland, wetland boundary and upland areas. Vegetation Observed vegetation along the wetland boundary consisted of garlic mustard (Al#aria petiolata), a facultative plant; reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea), a facultative wetland (+) plant; stinging nettle (Urtica dioica) a facultative (+) plant; and ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea), a facultative upland plant. Vegetation inside the wetland boundary consisted of primarily reed canary grass and jewelweed (Impatiens pallida), a facultative wetland plant. Observed upland vegetation consisted of ground ivy; Canada thistle (Circium arvense) a facultative upland plant; garlic mustard; and reed canary grass. Soils The 1974 USDA Soil Survey of Hennepin County classifies the area of the subject site as fill land. Boundary, wetland and uplands soils were all field identified as a very dark brown (10YR 2/2) loam to a minimum depth of 12 inches below the surface. Hydrology No water was encountered within the wetland, boundary or upland soil pits. The drainage pattern of the basin was used as the primary indicator of its hydrology. The FAC-Neutral test was used as a secondary indicator. -2- Schoell & Madson, Inc. -3281 - Project 63514-002 Wetland Delineation June_2002 Wetland Conservation Act The site lies within the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District boundaries. According to the Wetland Conservation Act of 1996, wetlands on this site come under the jurisdiction of the Board of Water and Soil Resources. The responsibility for administering the provisions of this legislation is up to the local unit of government (LGU). In this case, the City of Mound will oversee as the LGU. The project must be certified by the LGU as having complied with the provisions of the Act. -3- Schoell & Madson, Inc. -3282- FIGURE 1_: Site Location Map · ~- 2:2000 D~Lorme: Street Atlas uSA; © 2000 Mag 16.00 Thu Jun 13 11:58 2002 Scale 1:7,812 (at center) 500 Feet 200 Meters ~ Local Road ~ Major Connector I I Railroad · Small Town Water Harrison -3283- MEMORANDUM DATE: September 5, 2002 TO: Sarah Smith, Community Development Director FROM: John Cameron, CitY Engineer SUBJECT: City of Mound Coddon Waiver of Platting Spruce Road and Tonkawood Drive Case #02-27 1V[FRA #13827 As requested, we have reviewed the Coddon Waiver of Platting request and have the following comments and recommendations: Comments General This parcel is comprised of six (6), 40-foot wide by 100-foot deep platted lots, running between Spruce Road and Tonkawood Drive. A 50-foot wide Xcel Energy easement for the transmission line bisects the parcel. The parcel also contains a wetland that has been delineated and appears on the . survey. The original plat of"Lake Side Park A.L. Crocker's 1st Division, Mound, Minnetonka" did not include any drainage and utility easements along lot lines. Therefore, these easements as shown on the survey will need to be provided along all new parcel lines. 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 Mil need to be submitted when applications are made for building permits. The delineated wetland shown on the survey will need to be protected from any grading activity. 33-3284- Sarah Smith, Community Development Director September 5, 2002 Utilities The City's record plans indicate that sewer services are available for all three new parcels. The water services are a little more complicated. The City records show two water serVices with curb boxes located in the boulevard in front of Lot 24. The westerly one can be used for Parcel C and the easterly curb box will need to be relocated to serve Parcel A. A new water service will need to be installed for Parcel B; however the City watermain is located well behind the curb, which will avoid excavating the street to make the new connection. Miscellaneous The combination of these six (6) lots were assessed only one (1) unit charge when the streets in this area were reconstructed in 1978. It has been City policy to collect deferred unit charges when properties are re-divided and additional building units are created; therefore this property should be charged for two (2) additional units at $1,170.90 per unit, for a total of $2,341.80. Recent revisions to the City Code requires that sanitary sewer and watermain area trunk charges in addition to the connections 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 waiver of platting. The survey shows the proposed driveway for Parcel C located within the Xcel Energy easement. We have checked with Xcel and they do allow "temporary" installations, such as driveways, to be located within their easements. No permanent structures, such as homes, are allowed. Recommendations 1. Provide drainage and utility easements along all new lot lines, five feet wide on side and rear lot lines and ten feet in width along the front lot lines. 2. Final grading and drainage plan to be approved by the City Engineer at time of building permit application. 3. The installation ora new water service for Parcel B and relocation of existing water service for Parcel A, must either be completed or some type of financial guarantee provided, such as cash escrow, letter of credit, or performance bond. 4. Two (2) deficient street unit charges in the amount of $1,170.90 each, for a total of $2,341.80 shall be paid. 5. 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. 6. Written approval from Xcel Energy 'for the driveway located in their easement must be provided. s:\main:\Mou 13827:\Correspondence~smith9 '4 '-3285- Property Information Search by Property ID ResUlt page Page 1 of 2 Search By: Property ID: 1311724320062 Search J Clear Hennepin nty, MN .us ~~ .~Property Information Search Result ' The Hennepin cbunty Property Ta~ W~b database is u daily (Monday - Friday) at approximately 9:1S p.m. Property ID: Address: Municipality: School Dist: Watershed: Sewer Dist: Owner Name: Taxpayer Name & Address: Parcel Data for Taxes Payable 2004 13-117-24-32-0062 85 ADDRESS UNASSTGNED MOUND 277 Construction year: 3 Parcel Size: HENNEPIN FORFEITED LAND RANDALL J VALEK 4464 W ARM RD SPRING PARK MN 55384 Most Current Sales Information Sales prices are reported as listed on the Certificate of Real Estat, not warranted to represent arms-length transactions.

In reviewing the report, I think that you'll find that EOR has incorporated a very innovative and aesthetically appealing design which should mutually satisfy the goals of the City, developer and MCWD for the site. Please let me know if you have questions or concerns about the report. As a matter of procedure, a few things need to happen for us to continue our involvement in the project: o MCWD has requested a $1.5 million levy from the Counties (Hennepin and Carver) over three years for the project beginning in 2005. We need to have a public hearing for the project in the City of Mound prior to November 23rd or we cannot levy the money. I need to finalize a date~ time and location for this meeting before the end of this week in order to publish notice in the local papers. Please provide me guidance on where and when such a meeting should take place. MCWD requests your review and comment on the proposed design. As cited in the report, the proposed design is projected to reduce nutrient loading into Lake Minnetonka by approximately 75% (versus the MCWD regulatory requirement of 50%). Throughout this process, we have tried to work closely with all of the parties involved to ensure that we will create a stormwater treatment system which will also be complementary to the aesthetics and functionality of the site. The submittal of this report signifies an appropriate milestone where each of the parties can reevaluate their involvement and commitment to a joint project. Prior to December, the City, the developer and MCWD should re-affirm their commitment to a coordinated partnership. The MCWD Board will review the project report and issue support via a Board resolution. Following your review of the report, if acceptable, MCWD requests that you issue support in writing for our continued involvement in the project (preferably through Council resolution as well as a statement from the developer or developer's group from an individual serving in an official capacity to speak for the entire group). A cost estimate for the stormwater management has also been included with this e-mail. A cost- share agreement and implementation program will need to be jointly agreed upon prior to bid letting in 2005. The sooner we can complete this task the better. Please let me know if you have any immediate questions or concerns. I look forward to review and responding your comments related to the report or any upcoming events. Sincerely, Michael Wyatt MCWD Planner/Program Manager 18202 Minnetonka Blvd. Deephaven, MN 55391 (952) 471-0590 -3291 - Supplementing Mound Downtown Redevelopment With Innovative Stormwater Management A Report for the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District by Emmons and Olivier Resources, Inc. October, 2004 Introduction The redevelopment of downtown Mound provides a unique opportunity to implement a key recommendation of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District's (MCWD) Hydrologic, Hydraulic and Pollutant Loading Study (HHPLS) (MCWD, 2003). Retrofitting effective stormwater management into downtown Mound was identified in the HHPLS because this portion of the city developed initially without adequate attention to stormwater. This project is also a prototype for many similar retrofit projects identified for similar reasons throughout the Lake Minnetonka watershed. Mound Harbor Renaissance (Figure 1) comprises a substantial part of the overall downtown redevelopment. The reconstruction of County Road 15 and the new Mound marina provide an infrastructure frame within which to paint a vibrant downtown built with state-of-the-art, innovative stormwater management facilities. The purpose of the MCWD participation in the redevelopment is to incorporate stormwater management practices that reach as far as possible and incorporate as many new ideas as needed to improve the quality of runoff reaching Lake Minnetonka via Lost and Langdon Lakes. Exploring the feasibility of incorporating innovative practices and testing the effect will provide valuable information for similar ventures throughout the lake' s watershed. -3292- ,,. ~ . II ,I ,il ,~t ,, III1 i -3293- System Themes and Assumptions There are several themes that EOR used in developing the stormwater management scheme proposed in this report. It must be pointed out, however, that the land uses within the redevelopment area have been previously determined and that EOR worked within those assumptions. Also, many of the stormwater handling features were recommended as part of the initial site design by the developer and were merely incorporated into EOR's recommended approach because they made sense from a runoff management point of view. The following themes summarize the direction that EOR pursued in its conceptualization: · Stormwater is an asset, not a detriment. To adequately protect this resource, no drop of runoff from the redevelopment will reach Lost Lake or Langdon Lake without some level of treatment. A "treatment-train" approach will be used to expose runoff to as many levels of treatment as possible between the point of runoff and the final receiving water. The goal is to see no increase in the amount of runoff, and to improve the quality of runoff as a result of this development compared to pre-development. · The "green village" look means that native vegetation will play a dominant role in filtering runoff. The runoff handling system will incorporate reduction of runoff from commonly occurring events at its source as a first tenet, followed by collection and treatment in a regional detention system for excess flows. All filtration and infiltration practices will have overflow devices to move excess water away from the facility in medium to large events. · Runoff management for the Lost Lake District will focus on collection, filtration and wetland treatment because of the need to avoid infiltrating water into potentially contaminated soils. · Runoff management in the Auditor's Road and Langdon Districts will promote infiltration only in those instances when moving water into building sub-grades is not a problem. If the potential for sub-grade flooding is possible, water will be filtered and moved along in the treatment train. · All building impervious footprints will be disconnected from direct runoff to another impervious surface. This will be accomplished through a system of tree trenches, rain gardens, vegetated swales, and above- and below-grade storage. · Low salt and sand use, and removal of snow to an engineered snow disposal site should be standard snow management techniques for the downtown area. Possible use of select heated pavement and porous asphalt could be used to minimize snow and ice build-up. -3294- District Descriptions Lost Lake District (east) The primary objective for the Lost Lake District is to collect and treat runoff while minimizing infiltration to possibly contaminated soils. This portion of the downtown site has been exposed to many different polluting events in the past. A meeting with several MPCA staff on September 22, 2004 verified the contamination problems associated with two primary sites that have entered the Volunteer Investigation and Cleanup (VIC) program. Those sites are the Maxwell Property on the east side of the District (Area D- 2), which used to include the Metro 500 service station, and the former Lost Lake Dump on the west side of the District (Area D-1). Figure 2 shows the general location of these two parcels within the Lost Lake District. Some evidence of movement of a former petroleum spill from the Super America station outside of the east-side District boundary is also present. Monitoring of groundwater and soil within the District indicates that caution is imperative because of the remaining presence petroleum and volatile organic compounds (VOC). Figure 2. Location of the Maxwell Property and the Former Lost Lake Dump within the Lost Lake District. LOST ~ W~r. ST ~T~fCT Former Lost Lake Dump Maxwell Property -3295- The general stormwater management concept for the Lost Lake District is portrayed in Figure 3, and the vision of how it would appear is in Figure 4. To avoid exacerbating any of the groundwater contamination problems, water would be collected and treated on the surface, and routed through treatment systems to Lost Lake. The collection of water begins with the buildings themselves. All roof downspouts from the 17 units on the south and west side of the District would be routed to a serpentine rock-lined collection channel that also contains a sub-grade sand filter trench (Figure 5). This channel is proposed to flow along and under (at foot-bridge crossings) the trail on the south side of the District. This channel also could contain baseflow from the County Road 15 ponds north of the highway (see later discussion in Auditor's Road District). The connection between the roof leaders and the channel could be overland or via a sub- grade collection and storage system (Figure 5). The channel could discharge to one of two wetland treatment cells located between the trail and Lost Lake (see Figure 3 - above). These cells will provide additional treatment for runoff prior to lake discharge. These cells would be graded to maximize runoff contact with native wetland vegetation for nutrient uptake and particulate filtering. Runoff from the building cluster on the northwest side of the District could be collected in a large storage cistern located between the two lines of buildings or possibly introduced into a shallow Evaporative Control System (ECS) that would collect water and slowly feed it upward from storage chambers into vegetation through capillary action. The water stored in this "rain barrel" cistern or in the ECS could be used by the community for landscape watering. Excess water from either approach would flow into a linear rain garden at the site's entrance, and then into two rain gardens located in the center of the District. These two rain gardens would also collect runoff from the remaining building roof-tops, as well as surrounding parking lots surfaces. The outflow from the two rain gardens and the remaining parking lot surface on the south part of the site could be routed to a lateral swale adjacent to the restored wetland on the southeast end of the site. Here, water would be spread evenly in the swale and allowed to infiltrate. Any overflow during larger events would flow into the restored wetland treatment system, which in turn discharges to the edge of Lost Lake where a vegetated wetland basin accepts flow for further treatment. The currently degraded wetland on the east side of the District could be restored and configured to capture and treat runoff as described above. The wetland could also extend to the north to capture any excess flow that would enter from the northernmost parking area along County Road 15. The wetland could enlarge south of the infiltration swale for further treatment, and eventually discharge under a newly constructed trail crossing heading to the ballfields to the east. Downstream of the new trail crossing would be the additional wetland treatment cell collecting input also from the new wetland cell draining the meandering channel. -3296- ./ -3297- -3298- · ! t / / -3299- The rain gardens would be used for filtering rather than infiltration because of the potential contaminated soil in the area. The rain gardens would be designed with sub- grade filtering media and under-drains (Figure 6) so that excess flow could be captured and routed toward the wetland treatment system on the south edge of the District. Note that the depth of the sub-grade drainage system under the rain garden can be adjusted to avoid contact with contaminated soil or water. Figure 6. Rain Garden Cross-Section with Under-Drain. Adjustable depth There will not be much volume reduction from the treatment scheme proposed for this District because of the need to keep water from infiltrating into contaminated soils. However, there will be some infiltration along the south edge through the infiltration swale and rock-lined filtering channel. There will also be some volume loss through evapotranspiration through the rain gardens and through use of water stored in the cistern or ECS facility. Water quality, on the other hand, should be greatly improved through the treatment-train proposed through the District. Although the city ballfield parking area is not within the Lost Lake District, it makes sense for the city to entertain runoff improvements here as well. This area was not modeled, but could be in the future if the MCWD wants to assess the quantity and quality effects of management approaches within the sub-area. The parking lot associated with the ballfields could be improved through the use of permeable paving blocks or porous paving material. A sand filter under permeable paving blocks would filter runoff as it continues to soak into the ground as it does now. The blocks would lend more structural -3300- integrity and could incorporate an overflow routing system to move excess water to the wetland treatment system associated with the Lost Lake District described above. This are could also provide a snow dump site for disposal of snow during the season when the ball fields are not in use. The sand filter under the paving blocks would filter the snowmelt. Annual post-season maintenance would be crucial to keep sediment from building on top of the paving blocks. Auditor's Road District (central) The primary stormwater management objective for this District will be careful infiltration. Care is needed to avoid causing water problems in underground parking structures that are proposed for buildings within the District. The general stormwater management concept is portrayed in Figure 7, and the vision of how it would appear is in Figure 8. A substantial amount of this District will consist of rooftop and parking surfaces, with the potential for extremely high runoff volume unless water is allowed to soak into the ground. The problem with that, however, is that infiltrating a large volume of water could mean added water needing to be drained away from sub-grade parking structures. To begin reducing the volume reaching the parking surface, all rooftop drains and walking areas associated with the buildings could be routed to tree trenches (Figure 9) located on the sidewalk areas in front of every building. These trenches would collect all rooftop/sidewalk water and transmit excess water via a system of under-drains to a collection system that would route it away from the buildings to the south end of the District. The large parking expanse in the center of this District could be drained via bioretention swales (Figure 10) that could infiltrate a volume equal to small events, but route larger volumes toward the south through a collection, filtering and overflow system. To more effectively fill this role, the two very narrow "infiltration trenches" noted on the design drawing would need to be widened. To accommodate this, the storage pond/rain garden in the center could be decreased and converted to a rain garden that would accept parking lot swale and direct parking lot runoff. Excess water from this rain garden could flow into the north-south oriented drainage swale, and then southward in the collection system. Details for the potential hotel site are not in place at this time, but it is assumed that the site will conform with the rest of the District design concepts and have a similar treatment-train approach to stormwater management. The hotel could be a good demonstration site to incorporate landscape improvements into an overall site water management approach. This location would make a very nice place for a rooftop garden over a parking structure, such as show in Figure 11, or for landscaping drainage into vegetation from a garden overlook to Lost Lake. This area could be a quiet get-away for guests and could include some educational information about how this vegetated overlook is helping the lake. All of this could be part of an environmental ethic statement made by the hotel as part of its role in the "green village". It could be combined with 10 -3301 - messages about water conservation, chemical management, and landscaping to filter runoff. Once runoff is collected from the building and parking areas, it could be routed down to the Auditor's Road area and Lost Lake fringe. The primary drainage storm sewer from the developed part of the District could be discharged to a sub-grade pre-treatment device, similar to the Downstream Defender, a proprietary treatment device that shows promise for removing most of any remaining pollution in the runoff. Outflow from this device could then be discharged into a native vegetation forebay area and then into the restored wetland, which would be the final water quality "polisher" before runoff reaches the lake. 11 -3302- T -3303- -3304- -3305- -3306- Figure 11. Rooftop Garden Over Brit's Pub in Minneapolis (photo from Metropolitan Council). Runoff from Auditor's Road could be soaked into the ground through a system of porous pavement in the parking stalls, bordering the central drive lanes paved with conventional concrete. Runoff that does not infiltrate could be routed to rain garden peninsulas accessed through curb-cuts or depressed pavement. Overflow from any part of Auditor's Road could then be routed to an infiltration swale/bioretention structure located between the walkway and the restored wetland, with final discharge to the "polishing" wetland treatment system behind a vegetated forebay. In between the Lost Lake and Auditor's Road districts is the "restored" wetland area behind the floating docks. Two storm sewer outlets now exist there, with the source of water believed to be from outside of the project area via the two Co. Rd. 15 detention ponds north of the highway and the highway itself to the east. For a preliminary approach, Downstream Defender pre-treatment units can be installed, with each outlet to the restored wetland treatment system between the embankment and the floating docks. This wetland area could be reconfigured to bring the shoreline down to the lake water level through a series of vegetated terraces, each treating outflow to a further degree through filtration and infiltration. The biggest constraint at this location will be the elevation controls necessary for this system to properly function. The western-most pipe is likely the outlet flow from the County Road 15 ponds. If so, low flow could be routed to the rock-lined filtration channel in the Lost Lake District as baseflow, while medium and high flows could be routed through the Downstream Defender and into the restored wetland system. The eastern-most pipe drains the highway and could be similarly diverted depending upon the level of flow. 16 -3307- Mound Visions District (north) The Mound Visions area north of the Auditor's Road District and across the railroad tracks is not part of the Mound Harbor Renaissance development, and was thus not modeled. However, as with the ballfield area adjacent to the Lost Lake District, it makes some sense to incorporate runoff controls along with the Auditor's Road District improvements. Consideration of runoff controls is especially pertinent since this area has been identified by the MPCA as the "True Value District" because of the soil and groundwater contamination resulting from past use of the land. The area is being considered for entry into the state's brownfield reclamation program. Past contaminating uses are suspected to have included bulk petroleum storage, dry cleaning, auto servicing and industrial processing. Remnant contaminants include petroleum, VOCs and a heavy metal (barium). The general stormwater management concept and vision are portrayed in Figure 12. 17 -3308- -3309- The park and ride structure located in this area provides one of the only flat-roofed structures in the entire development area. Using the top surface, or a portion of the surface, as a rooftop garden/overlook park could combine runoff control with public open space. This location would be an ideal spot to overlook the bay and marina. Routing runoff from the tOl5 of the structure into a rooftop garden or hanging gardens at the roof's edges would remove this impervious surface from direct connection to runoff drainage, while at the same time affording the public a place to overlook the lake. Ultimate discharge from this building, with or without the rooftop park, could be routed to the pond southwest of County Road 15, then into the other ponds on the north side and down to Lost Lake, as described previously. Runoff treatment for the other parking areas north of the tracks (ex. True Value lot) are assumed to be similar to those described for the parking portion of the Auditor's Road District. Langdon District (wesO The primary objective for runoff control for this District is similar to Auditor's Road District in the caution needed to keep infiltrating water away from buildings while allowing for a treatment-train to be incorporated into a highly impervious area. The general stormwater management concept is portrayed in Figure 13, and the vision of how it would appear is in Figure 14. As with other buildings on the entire site, all of the runoff from the building rooftops will be routed to a tree trench or collected and routed to a rain garden. The central parking lot could have a vegetated bioretention swale system that could collect building and parking lot water and discharge either to the north or south, depending upon grade. A rain garden could be installed on the north edge of the site to collect and treat runoff from the parking lot swale. This rain garden could then release water to the wetland along the northern border, with ultimate discharge to an infiltration basin on the far western corner of the site and any excess water flowing into Langdon Lake. A rain garden could be installed between the large building in the center of the site and the five units on the western side. This garden could collect runoff from both building rooftops and slowly infiltrate it, with any excess released to Langdon Lake behind a vegetated forebay. An alternative for this spot could be the Evaporative Control System (ECS), which would collect water and slowly feed it back into the vegetative system as a source of irrigation water. Excess water from either system could flow as treated runoff into a vegetated forebay and then into the lake. The function of the proposed pond/grit chamber in the northwest corner is uncertain since it appears to be at the high point. Perhaps the developer intends for this high area to be removed. The implication for any proposed treatment element affected by this will need to be evaluated. 19 -3310- I I I' T -3311 - -3312- In the southeast comer of the District where water flows down the drive-in entry to the lake, something will need to be installed to intercept flow and soak it in or route it elsewhere. Such a control device could be a grated linear trench to route water over to the parking lot swale. The grated trench could also be moved further west and discharge into a vegetated swale that collects water and moved it to Langdon Lake. The Our Lady of the Lake Church parking lot adjacent to the Langdon District does not have any of its runoff treated and could, therefore, benefit from the redevelopment activity. A vegetated swale could be installed between the parking lot and Langdon Lake to intercept flow that currently flows directly to the lake. Outflow from the swale could be spread evenly to dissipate the energy originating from the large impervious surface. Further efforts could include reduction of the connected impervious parking surface. As with the other areas not included in the project area, this location was not modeled. Modeling of Quantity and Quality Modeling information from the MCWD's Hydrologic, Hydraulic and Pollutant Loading Study provides a basis for evaluating future runoff quantity and quality conditions with innovative stormwater techniques in place. This information also allows for some speculation on changes to the condition of Lake Minnetonka (Cook's Bay) as a result of this project. The Mound redevelopment is but one of many similar recommended locations for introduction of runoff control where it currently does not exist. There are many similar locations around the lake where development occurred without runoff controls. The success of the Mound redevelopment will serve as a prototype for similar ventures elsewhere, provided some benefit to the resource is shown. Quantity Maintenance of peak discharge rates to satisfy MCWD rules is easily achievable under the proposed redevelopment scenario incorporating stormwater features. Although final computation of peak discharge will depend upon the final pipe, feature layout, and grading, even conservative model assumptions result in a reduction of at least 1-3 cfs over that of pre-redevelopment conditions despite an overall increase of impervious acreage. Currently, MCWD rules do not require volume control and, as stated previously, only minimal volume control is realistic for this site due to both natural and imposed limitations. Factors limiting the potential for volume control include the presence of tight (clayey) soils, high groundwater, proximity to underground structures (parking facilities), and the presence of contaminated soils. However, in spite of numerous site limitations necessitating the need to restrict groundwater infiltration, a small amount of volume retention can realistically be expected within the recommended treatment trains. Incorporation of storage capacity below the designed outlets of the various recommended stormwater mitigation features serves as a dual purpose reservoir. The selected feature vegetation (with an appropriate root depth) will tap into the reservoir area allowing plant 22 -3313- uptake and promoting evapotranspiration. The underground reservoir will mitigate .the need for watering in dryer times as well as create a small amount of volume retention capacity to limit the amount of site runoff. Storage volume was estimated assuming that the reservoir area will consist mostly of sand with an effective porosity of approximately 15%. Under a very conservative assumption of zero uptake and no reservoir capacity, little site volume control is feasible. In this scenario, potential retention storage will be limited to the proposed cistern or evaporative control systems, rooftop storage and surface storage in the rain garden, wetland treatment swale, and the infiltration basin on the north end of the Langdon District site. Infiltration from other designed features will purposefully be limited to minimize the movement of soil contaminants as well as to protect underground facilities. Realistic assumptions show that, even under conditions of limited infiltration potential, a modest amount of volume control is feasible. Applying semi-conservative assumptions, it was estimated that approximately 1 acre-foot of volume capacity was available on the redevelopment site for stormwater retention with the greatest capacity (estimated 0.8 ac- ft) being available within the Langdon District site. Land use, land cover, impervious data, and soils information obtained for the MCWD HHPLS was used to evaluate existing and proposed site runoff characteristics. The runoff from each site generated for the 2-, 10-, and 100-yr, 24-hr storm events under existing conditions (pre-redevelopment), proposed conditions (without mitigative stormwater features), and proposed conditions with recommended mitigative stormwater features are shown in the following Tables 1 through 3.

Under proposed conditions without the mitigative features, a total runoff volume increase is expected due to new impervious surfaces. Collectively, the application of the proposed mitigative features under three typical design scenarios results in a reduction of runoff volume as compared to the traditional design. Quality The HHPLS water quality modeling approach was used to estimate the amount of total phosphorus (TP) in the runoff that leaves the project site and enters Langdon Lake and Lost Lake. Using the EPA's Simple Method, land cover and percent imperviousness data were used to estimate the volume of runoff leaving the site, and land use data were used to estimate the concentration of TP in that runoff. Since the size of this project area is much smaller than that modeled in the HHPLS, the modeling approach was modified to account for the high imperviousness of the site. The volume of runoff from the HHPLS was based on a long-term average depth of runoff for the area, as estimated from the MN Hydrology Guide (approximately 4.7 inches). However, this depth of runoff is based on a larger scale and therefore is an average representing an area with large amounts of both pervious and impervious surfaces. Since the project area is highly impervious (66% impervious under existing conditions), the runoff was estimated using the following guidelines: Impervious areas: 95% of precipitation becomes runoff Pervious areas: 4.7 inches of runoff The runoff volume estimates for this area are therefore higher than those estimated in the HHPLS. Three scenarios were modeled: Modeling Scenario Input Data 1) Existing conditions Metropolitan Council's 2000 land use data Existing land cover data Proposed land use, existing MCWD rules Proposed land use Estimated TP removal rates 2) 3) Proposed conditions, traditional design Proposed conditions with mitigative features For modeling scenario #3, estimated TP removal rates for each individual recommended stormwater management feature were used to determine the amount of TP exiting the feature and entering the next downstream one. Particulate phosphorus and dissolved phosphorus were tracked separately, since removal rates for each of these phosphorus pools differ depending on the recommended practice. It was assumed that watershed 25 -3316- runoff was 70% particulate and 30% dissolved phosphorus. Removal efficiencies for each proposed wetland treatment site were estimated using PONDNET. Removal efficiencies for the other proposed features were estimated based on knowledge of the removal mechanisms of each feature and past performance data. The existing conditions TP load was 27 lbs/yr, predicted to increase to 37 Ibs/yr under the proposed conditions (Table 7). If all of the recommended mitigative features were installed, the predicted TP load is predicted to decrease to 9.3 lbs/yr. This translates into a 75% TP removal under scenario #3, compared to proposed conditions under a traditional design (#2). Removals of particulate phosphorus are expected to be 84%, while removals of dissolved phosphorus are expected to be less, at approximately 45%. Table 7. Modeled phosphorus loads.

The proposed development is located in the LL-5 (Langdon Lake) and the LST-1 (Lost Lake) subwatersheds. The TP load reduction goal for LL-5 was 10%. LST-1 did not have a load reduction goal specific to the subwatershed. However, recommended actions in that subwatershed include retrofitting new stormwater practices into redeveloping urban areas adjacent to Lake Minnetonka, and achieving a no net increase in phosphorus loading for new development. The model predicts a 38% decrease in TP loads within LL-5 under scenario//3 relative to existing conditions (#1), and a 76% decrease in loads within LST-1 (Table 8). LL-5 drains into Langdon Lake, which then flows through Lost Lake and outlets into Cooks Bay of Lake Minnetonka. LST-1 directly flows to Lost Lake, and then on to Cooks Bay. Cooks Bay itself was not modeled in the HHPLS, and therefore specific TP load reduction goals were not set for its watershed. 26 -3317- Table 8. Modeled phosphorus loads related to HHPLS goals.

The cumulative impact of several redevelopment designs completed in this manner will likely improve in-lake water quality, and it is only through the completion of steps such as this project that these benefits will be realized. Conclusions The redevelopment of downtown Mound provides a unique opportunity to incorporate "innovative runoff management" techniques into an area where they do not currently exist. This portion of Mound originally developed at a time when the connection between polluted runoff and degraded lake water quality was not recognized. The MCWD's Hydrologic, Hydraulic and Pollutant Loading Study concluded that the sub-watershed within which Mound occurs is in need of some attention to improve runoff quality. The complete redevelopment of over 20 acres of highly urbanized land provides an opportunity to economically install runoff treatment systems during site construction, as opposed to retrofitting them into fully constructed urban settings. This approach in Mound should result in a small annual decrease in runoff volume and a phosphorus load reduction of 75% reaching Lake Minnetonka via Lost and Langdon Lakes from this project area. 27 -3318- ~ ~ 0 :~OOooOoO~ o oo o o~g 0000 O0O0 O0 000000 0000000000000 0~0000~000000 ~~~~0~ ooooogoooooogogooooo~o~ 0 0 0 .~ -~ 0 --~ 0 0 0 0 0 00. 0 --~ ~--~ -3319- 0 0 0 0 0 0 -3320- CITY OF MOUND RESOLUTION NO. 04-__ RESOLUTION AMENDING STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES FOR DEFERRAL OF SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS AGAINST OWNER OCCUPIED HOMESTEAD PROPERTIES IN HARDSHIP CASES FOR QUALIFIED HOMEOWNERS WHEREAS, under Minnesota law, cities are authorized to defer the payment of special assessments for any homestead property owned by a person 65 years of age or older or retired by virtue of a permanent and total disability for whom it would be a hardship to make the assessment payments, and WHEREAS, Minnesota Statutes 435.193 requires that any city desiring to defer special assessments in such instances must establish, by ordinance or resolution, standards and guidelines for determining the existence of a hardship and for determining the existence of a disability; WHEREAS, the City of Mound previously adopted Resolution No. 89-77, which states standards that in 1989 were appropriate for determining hardship; and WHEREAS, it is now determined that these standards are outdated and should be reconsidered, NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Mound, to amend the standards and guidelines for deferral of special assessments against owner occupied homestead properties in hardship cases for qualified homeowners, as follows: Eligibility; 1.

November 5, 2004 Submittal of Multiple Dock Application to LMCD for Lost Lake District - MHRD Background The sketch plan from Mound Harbor Renaissance Development (MHRD) for the Lost Lake, Auditors Road and Lake Langdon Districts was reviewed by the City Council last August. As part of the project, (37) townhomes are programmed for the Lost Lake District which also includes construction of a new multiple dock to accommodate (40) slips. The Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD) is the public agency responsible for issuance of multiple-dock licenses on Lake Minnetonka. Pursuant to LMCD Code Section 2.03, a new multiple dock license is required for the project. Staff Comments · The new Lost Lake District docks will be owned by the City of Mound and operated through the City's public dock program. · (37) slips will be made available to the townhome residents and (3) slips are for visitors and guests. The multiple dock license for the new townhomes in the Lost Lake District will be a separate permit from the City's existing licenses for the transient docks on Lost Lake along the Greenway and the City's dock program. According to LMCD rules, 2000 linear feet is needed to accommodate the (40) boat storage units (BSU). Members of the Council are advised that there is adequate shoreline in the Lost Lake District to accommodate the new slips. · A preliminary site plan (Landform Dock Exhibit dated 9/27/2004) for the proposed Lost Lake dock has been included as an attachment but may be subject to change. Recommendation Staff respectfully requests that the City Council approve the resolution (draft) which has been prepared to authorize submittal of an application to the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District for a new multiple dock to be constructed in the Lost Lake District for the townhomes to be constructed as part of the MHRD project to accommodate (40) boat storage units. -3321 - CITY OF MOUND RESOLUTION NO. 04- RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING SUBMITTAL OF NEW MULTIPLE DOCK APPLICATION TO THE LAKE MINNETONKA CONSERVATION DISTRICT (LMCD) FOR DOCKS TO BE CONSTRUCTED IN THE LOST LAKE DISTRICT AS PART OF MOUND HARBOR RENAISSANCE REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT (MHRD) WHEREAS, the City of Mound is located in the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD); and WHEREAS, the LMCD is the agency responsible for issuance of multiple-dock licenses on Lake Minnetonka; and WHEREAS, the City of Mound is proposing to construct a new multiple dock in the Lost Lake District as part of the downtown redevelopment project proposed by MHRD which includes (37) townhomes; and WHEREAS, (37) slips will be made available to the townhome residents and (3) slips are for visitors and guests of the townhome complex; and WHEREAS, the new Lost Lake District docks will be owned by the City of Mound and maintained through the City's public dock program; and WHEREAS, there is adequate shoreline in the Lost Lake District to accommodate the additional (40) boat storage units (BSU).

Background. At its October 26 meeting, the Mound City Council conducted the public hearing on the 2004 Street Reconstruction Project. Following the close of the hearing, the Council adopted the assessment mil for the project. During the hearing, one individual told the Council that at a December 9, 2003 council meeting on the project, the Mayor had informed him that there would be no assessment levied against the dock lots located within the project area. The Mayor did not recall making such a statement. At the close of the October 26 heating, the City Clerk was directed to review the tape recording of the December 9,2003 meeting to determine if the Mayor made such a statement. The Council further directed me to provide a written opinion on whether such a statement, if made, would be the basis for removing the assessments against the dock lots. The City Clerk's review of the recording of the December 9, 2003 meeting has determined that the Mayor did not make any statement regarding whether dock lots would be assessed. However, the recording of that meeting did disclose that the city engineer did make the following statement: "Those lots [referring to dock lots] would not be assessed. Those were not included in this assessment policy, only the residential units." During the preparation of the proposed assessment roll, which was prepared for the assessment hearing, the dock lots were included, and were assessed as one/quarter unit. The city engineer met with the Council on September 28, 2004, and discussed the reasoning for the inclusion of dock lots for assessment. It appears that notice of the assessment hearing was sent to all of the owners of the dock lots as is required by law. It appears from the review of the record by the City Clerk that the Mayor did not make the statement that was attributed to her by the resident. So no further analysis needs to be made concerning the impact, if any, of such a statement on the assessments. JBD-255004vl MU220-2 -3328- Kandis M. Hanson, City Manager October 29, 2004 Page 2 The Clerk's review did disclose that the above referenced statement was made by the city engineer at the December 9, 2003 Council meeting; and itis appropriate that the impact of that statement be considered as well. Analysis. Minnesota Statutes, Section 429.071 provides mechanisms for the reassessment of parcels. One of the grounds for reassessment is a determination by the Council "on advice of the municipal attorney that the assessment...may be invalid for any reason..." The question therefore, is whether the statement made on December 9, 2003 that the dock lots would not be assessed invalidates an assessment against the dock lots. Minnesota Statutes, Section 429.031 sets out the procedure for cities to follow in undertaking to construct public improvements. Under the statute, the city must consider a report fi.om the city engineer, or other person on the project. In addition, a description of the methodology used to calculate individual assessments must be available at the hearing. The section concludes with the following statement: 'no error or omission in the report invalidates the proceeding unless it materially prejudices the interests of an owner". Although the statement was not made at the improvement hearing, and although the statement was arguably not part of the report, I conclude that even if made at the hearing, and included as part of the report, the statement would not have prevented the council fi'om subsequently determining to assess the dock lots. My conclusion is based on the following factors: The primary purpose of the improvement hearing is to consider whether or not to construct the improvement. All of the owners of dock lots were given notice of the improvement hearing and had an oppommity to express their views concerning whether the project should be undertaken. Questions regarding individual assessments and the methodology are the subject of later public hearings at the time the assessment is considered. Once the decision was made to include the dock lots in the proposed assessment roll, all the owners of dock lots were notified of the assessment hearing and had an opportunity, as stated in the notice, to object to the proposed assessment. 0 IBD-255004vl MU220-2 At the assessment hearing, owners of dock lots had a full oppommity to present objections to the proposed assessment; and the Council articulated its rationale for including the dock lots as benefited parcels, with appropriate -3329- Kandis M. Hanson, City Manager October 29, 2004 Page 3 reductions from a full unit assessment based on the limited utility of the dock lots: Owners of dock lots who have complied with the statutory requirements will have the option to appeal the assessment. Conclusion. Based on the foregOing, I conclude that: (i) the Council was within its legal authority to depart fi-om the assessment methodology articulated by the city engineer on December 9, 2003; (ii) the owners of dock lots had full notice of the inclusion of the dock lots in the proposed assessment roll; (iii) the owners were accorded a full hearing on th.proposed assessment of the dock lots at which time they could impose whatever objections they had to the proposed assessment; (iv) subject to having met the procedural requirements contained in the notice and the statute, will have the oppommity to appeal the assessment of the dock lots. ~BD-255004vl MU220-2 -3330- MEMORANDUM To: Kandis Hanson, City Manager From: Jim Kurtz, Police Chief Subject: Operation Clean Sweep The purpose of this memo is to update you on Operation Clean Sweep. This summer Jennifer Williams worked with us as a college intern investigating and enforcing nuisance ordinance violations. Our goal for the summer was to saturate the Island and learn: 1) what types of violations we could enforce, 2) how much time it would take to inspect and re-inspect properties, 3) what enforcement strategies worked, and 4) learn how tolerant citizens were to our en£o~cen~ent effort. Intern Williams inspected the entire Island for nuisance violations including; house address numbers, illegal storage, junk vehicles, and noxious weeds. She issued 283 written warnings. Of the 283 written warning violators, 189, or 67% corrected the problem at the time of the scheduled re-inspection. An additional 64 properties complied at the time of the second inspection and there are currently 30 open investigations. Overall, 89% of the properties that were inspected have corrected their problems. The feedback from the project was mostly positive and the compliance numbers would suggest that the majority of the people supported the effort. We're going to suspend inspections for the season and work on closing the remaining 30 open investigations. Next year, we'll re-implement the program and target another portion of the city. -3331 - CITY OF MOUND BUDGET EXPENDITURES REPORT Oct. 2004 GENERAL FUND 83.33% Oct. 2004 BUDGET EXPENSE YTD PERCENT EXPENSE VARIANCE EXPENDED 72,850 11,967 66,038 6,812 90.65% Promotions City Manager/Clerk Elections Finance Assessing Legal City Hall Building & Srvcs Computer Police Emergency Prepardeness Planning/Inspections Streets 3,750 276 900 13 460 234 070 79 300 135 580 124 270 29 900 1,448,590 7,130 367,880 655,610 Pa~ks ............... 331,930 28,~3-49- ~286;758--~172 Cemetery 9,610 0 603 9,007 Transfers 256,690 31,944 319,440 (62,750) Cable TV 50,000 0 21,069 28,931 Contingencies 607,250 1,435 474,155 133,095 0 3,750 0 100.00% 18,077 219,907 56,993 79.42% 304 4,822 8,638 35.82% 17,308 180,003 54,067 76.90% 109 78,001 1,299 98.36% 14,015 96,410 39,170 71.11% 5,680 108,206 16,064 87.07% 342 12,039 17,861 40.26% 105,198 1,193,895 254,695 82.42% (11) 5,600 1,530 78.54% 23,769 236,940 130,940 64.41% 46,383 547,801 107,809 83.56% 86.39% 6.27% 124.45% 42.14% 78.08% GENERAL FUND TOTAL 4,704,770 304,869 3,855,437 849,333 81.95% Area Fire Service Fund 638,140 51,211 584,156 53,984 91.54% Dock Fund 143,150 3,027 53,956 89,194 37.69% Capital Projects 0 290,173 2,179,659 (2,179,659) TIF 1-2 0 6,337 506,008 (506,008) Water Fund 687,240 48,006 533,833 153,407 77.68% Sewer Fund 1,201,940 100,010 935,973 265,967 77.87% Liquor Fund 559,800 36,464 438,633 121,167 78.36% Recycling Fund 167,680 16,348 127,028 40,652 75.76% Storm Water Utility 96,870 3,796 70,896 25,974 73.19% Exp -02 11/05/2004 Gino -3332- CITY OF MOUND BUDGET REVENUE REPORT Oct. 2004 83.33% GENERAL FUND Oct. 2004 YTD BUDGET REVENUE REVENUE PERCENT VARIANCE ..RECEIVED Taxes Business Licenses Non-Bus iness Licenses/Permits Intergovernmental Charges for Services Court Fines Street Lighting Fee Franchise Fees G.O.

CSAH 110 (Commerce Blvd.) is currently paved and striped with traffic control inplace ............. for~he4Mnter ~ New CSAH 15 will be opened on a limited basis within the next couple of weeks. The replaced portion of CSAH 15 will be closed to traffic at the east end. A portion of new CSAH 15 will be limited to 2 lanes of traffic. This limitation will be necessary to accommodate the construction of the new wall near the lake. In general, wall construction did not go as predicted. Delays due to weather setbacks and utility conflicts hampered progress on the previously constructed walls. In order to maintain traffic through the project, only one wall could be built at a time. We anticipate at this time that wall construction will continue into December. If the wall can be poured yet this year, it would be a great aid in a timely and efficient startup next spring. The new signal system at the intersection of new CSAH 15 and CSAH 110 is also scheduled to be installed within the next couple of weeks. At that time the signal system currently working at the old intersection of CSAH 15 and CSAH 110 will be removed. A stop sign will be placed in the west bound lane on old CSAH 15 with north and south bound traffic on CSAH 110 free to move through the old intersection. The project is not following the original schedule. Originally, the project was scheduled to have all lanes open from the new CSAH 15 and CSAH 110 intersection to the east end of the project. This did not work out due to the wall construction delay. However, the contractor was able to do the portion of the project west of the intersection. This work was not scheduled to be completed until next summer. So the amount of work completed on the project as a whole is approximately where it should be at this time. At this time, work such as sidewalk placement, irrigation system installation, lighting and electrical work continue and will continue until weather forces stoppage. If we have a normal winter and the work on the wall near the lake goes as planned, we should be able to finish the road and get all four lanes of CSAH 15 open to traffic in the spring. Following the completion of the roadway, sidewalk can be completed and final landscaping can start. We anticipate completion of this project about the middle of summer. -3335- ~ CITY OF 5341 MAYWOOD ROAD MOUND, MN 55364-1687 PH: (952) 472-0600 FAX: (952) 472~0620 WEB: www.cityofmound.com October 28, 2004 Mr. David Rienstra Mr. Ted Manley P.O.

In 2003 and 2004, funding of this program was 100% from Hennepin County. Continuation of this program is planned for2005; however, HennePin C'ounty~might noLbe able eJther, partially'of'fullyl:und itdue to the economic challenges that Hennepin County.is facing. TheLMCD and a nUmber of member citieSbelieve that funding .of these two additional Deputie..s should be the responsibility of Hennepin County and Hennepin County is currently making efforts for long-term funding of this project~ The LMCD will keep you informed on the status of this project. 2004 Lake Minnetonka ~Solar LiRht Buoy Prbiect: FOr the third dbnsecuti~/e boating-S~aS0n, 'sbl~r lights~urchased with "Save the Lake" Funds were installed on top of existing red and green navigational buoys in 2004. Six areas of Lake Minnetonka were Chosen topar~icipate in this projectin 2004. Thesesix areas included: 1) two channels east of the Arcola Bridge, 2) the.channel.On the southeast Side of Spray Island onthe Upper Lake, 3) both ends Of the Narrows and Arcola Bridge channels, 4) the channel near Cedar Point,East on Wayzata Bay, 51 the channel on northeast Cooks Bay at the .Emerald'Lake Bridge, and 6)the Channel on the east side of Coffee Cove on Crystal BaY. Feedback from this project in 2004 has been encouraging and continUation of this project in 2005 is likely, with the possibility of expanding it to other areas of Lake Minnetonka. 2004 Lake Minnetonka EWM Harvesting program: The 2004 Lake Minnetonka EWM harvesting season commenced on 6/14/04 and continued through 8/14/04. Consistent with past years, harvesting priorities ~were-based upon impediment to public boat navigation on the open water. In 2004, the total number of harveSter loads was 396.25, which generated 196.00 or 4.46 truck loads per day. This compares to a total number of harvester loads of 270.75 in 2003, which generated 143.50 or 3.50 truck loads per day. A working group meeting was conducted in the LMCD office on 10/2/04 to discuss: the 2004 season and make'recommendationS to improve the program in 2005. One recommendation of the working group is to solicit sealed bids in 2004 for the purchase of a new paddlewheel harvester and the trading in of the two remaining 1989 UM1 harvesters prior to the 2005 season. Feel free to contact the LMCD office if you would like a copy of the 2004 EWM Final Harvesting Report. 2004 Lake Minnetonka Zebra Mussel Program: In 2004, the LMCD contracted with the MN DNR to conduct inspections from May 15th through September 19th on peak days, during peak times, at five selected public accesses..Peak days included Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.

Mr. Randy Boyd, 19960 Minnetonka Blvd., commented on boat density on Lake Minnetonka. He stated that he believed the boat density policy that was adopted clearly had conservation in mind. He believed that this policy had assisted in density issues on both St. Louis and Carsons Bays. Any changes to the 1974 policy should include a hearing to get public input on any changes being considered by the Board. CONSENT AGENDA- Consent agenda items identified with a (*) will be approved in motion unless a Board member requests discussion of any item, in which case the item will be removed from the consent agenda. Nybeck requested that agenda item !B be removed from the consent agenda beca,Jse the minutes from the 10/8/04 EWMtExotics Task Force Meeting were not done. Ambrose moved, Nelson seconded to approve the consent agenda as amended, removing agenda item lB. Motion carried unanimously. Items so approved include: 2A, Hennepin County Sheriff's Office Water Patrol Significant Activity Report, and 3B, September financial summary and balance sheet. 1. EWMIEXOTICS TASK FORCE A. Review of 2004 LMCD/Three Rivers Park District phosphorus removal sampling program. Skramstad asked Nybeck for background on this agenda item. Nybeck stated that the 2004 "Save the Lake" Budget funded a program, coordinated with the Three Rivers Park District, to determine how much phosphorous is being removed from harvested milfoil from the LMCD's program. The fieldwork and analysis for this project has been conducted by Three Rivers Park District and John Barten was in attendance to summarize the results. Baden made the following comments: The project took place because there has been an interest for some years in the amount of phosphoreus removed annually frem the LMCD's harvesting pregram. There have been some estimates in recent years addressing this, with an estimate most recently by the MCWD. In a Report prepared by the MCWD, they estimated that between 2,000 and 20,000 pounds were removed annually by the harvesting pregram. One of the primary objectives of this project was to further refine the estimates of the MCWD. He reviewed the methodology used in this project. This included how the samples were collected, the weighing of the trucks, and the drying methods. This methodology allowed the Three Rivers Park District to conduct a phosphoreus sampling analysis of dry vegetation. Overall, the results were consistent with a few exceptions when the vegetation did not primarily consist of milfoil. -3340- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting October 2.7, 2004 Page 3 · Based on this project, he estimated that each truckload consisted of approximately 2.6 pound of phosphorous. With 196 truckloads removed in 2004, he estimated that 510 pounds of phosphorous were removed by the 2004 harvesting program. · The total pounds of phosphorous removed annually might not seem like a lot, especially with the MCWD estimating the annual phosphorous in-flow into Lake Minnetonka at 20,000 pound. However, the cost per pound per removal, $204, is significantly less than removal rates for most watershed projects. · A big question is how much impact the phosphorous removed from Lake Minnetonka by the harvesting program has on water quality. In the shod-term, he did not believe it has a significant impact on water quality. However, the impact on long-term water quality was unknown and it has not been studied and this might be better addressed through the water quality sampling program four or five years from now. · He compared the 500 pounds of phosphorous removed by the harvesting program with other removal alternatives. It would require 1,500 rain gardens or the construction of a 4.5 acre NURP pond from approximately 700 acres of residential area to achieve a comparable phosphorous reduction. - u~.uv~u L,~,~L u~U p~UJUU[ Wa~ a SUCCESS because it bet[er refined the amount of PhosphOrous remoVed annually from the harvesting equipment. He entedained questions or comments from the Board. Nelson stated that Baden was present at the 10/8/04 EWM/Exotics Task Force meeting to discuss these results. Nelson expressed an interest in working with the MCWD on analyzing where the in- flows of phosphorous into Lake Minnetonka are coming from and then take preventive actions. He stated that the MCWD District Administrator Eric Evenson was present at the 10/8/04 meeting and he questioned Baden whether he had an oppodunity to discuss this fudher with Evenson. Baden stated that he had talked briefly with Loren Hatch of the MCWD regarding this issue, Baden stated that he and a representative from the MPCA have encouraged the MCWD to establish a nutrient control budget for Lake Minnetonka. Van Hercke asked Baden what other conclusions he drew from this project. Baden stated that the .232 percent of phosphorous by dry weight per truckload in this project was consistent with the .220 percent of phosphorous by dry weight per truckload in the literature he reviewed. Additionally, this project confirmed the amount of plant materials that was being removed annually by the harvesting program. Nybeck stated that there was discussion by the Board this past summer on whether to request the MCWD to assist in funding the LMCD's harvesting program. At that time, the Board concluded to hold off on this until the project just summarized by Baden was completed. Exotic species and the involvement of the MCWD was recently discussed at the 10/21/04 MCWD Board of Managers Planning/Workshop Session. Based on this meeting, Nybeck believed that the MCWD was not likely to fund either the harvesting or zebra mussel programs in the near future because it was not clear to him that they have interest in either program. There were some members of the Board of -3341 - Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting October 27, 2004 Page 4 Managers that had a limited interest in the harvesting program and MCWD staff was putting further materials together for review by the Board of Managers in the future. Skramstad stated that he had talked to the President of the MCWD Board of Managers, Lance Fisher, and that it was unlikely that they would take these programs over. He believed that the MCWD might be able to partially assist financially in these programs sometime in the future and allow the LMCD to continue to manage these programs. Valdesuso asked if there was a letter forwarded amongst the LMCD member cities regarding the possibility of the MCWD funding the harvesting program. Nybeck stated that there was a request made in recent months by one of the member cities to the remaining 13 member cities for the MCWD to fund the LMCD's harvesting program. Ambrose stated that Nybeck's recollection was correct and the Wayzata city council took no action on this request. Valdesuso asked how this could be communicated to the 14 member cities because he been asked for an update on this on a couple of occasions. Skramstad recommended that an update should be included in the next quarterly Executive Director Newsletter. He thanked Baden on behalf of the Board of Directors for his leadership on this project. C. Report from the 10/8/04 EWM/Exotics Task Force Meeting. Nelson stated that the discussion at this meeting was quite interesting, including the "Black Lake- Green Lake" concept. Because of this discussion, the MCWD has expressed an interest in assisting in the drafting of a talking paper for Senator Olson to consider drafting legislation, possibly as soon as the upcoming session. He suggested that broad support of the various organizations was necessary, including the LMA, the MLA, and the MCWD. Valdesuso asked for a brief explanation of the "Black Lake-Green Lake" concept. Nelson stated that the general concept is to quarantine lakes or bodies of water that are infested with zebra mussels. Lakes that have zebra mussels would be posted accordingly and boats that enter these waters would have a black sticker on them. For these boats to enter non-infested zebra mussel waters, the owner would need to have these boats inspected in order to get a green sticker. The goal would be to make this program statewide and then expand it regionally, The consensus of the Board was to allow Nelson to work on this program and keep the Board up to date on this program. Nelson stated that the TPT zebra mussel video had been produced and that it would distributed next spring. -3342- ~ * , ~l,,~, ..... Il ki ,& ,I iai ~, Iii II Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting October 27, 2004 D. Update of 10/2/04 EWM Harvesting Program Working Group Meeting. Page 5 Skramstad asked Nybeck for an update on this agenda item. Nybeck stated that an EWM Harvesting Program Working Group meeting was conducted in the LMCD office on 10/2/04 to evaluate the 2004 season and to discuss potential changes for 2005. In addition to himself, Herb Suerth, Judd Harper, and Steve Curfman attended this meeting. Four primary topics were discussed at this meeting. These included: 1) review of the 2004 EWM Harvesting Program Final Season Report, 2) update on the maintenance of the EWM Harvesting equipment by Curfman, 3) discussion of the possible purchase/trade-in of harvesters for the 2005 season, and 4) discussion of other possible capital equipment purchases for the 2005 season (primarily outboard motors for the transport barge and pontoon). There are two recommendations for consideration by the Board. First, the working group recommends that the Board direct staff to advertise for competitive bids, through a Request for Proposal (RFP), for the purchase of a new Aquatic Plant Harvester and the trade-in of the two remaining UMI harvesters. Second, the working nrnlln recommends fh2f fh¢, Rn~rcl rlir,',r,f ~t~ fn ~nlir, itr, nmm,',nto OR th~ '"F ............. sent out through the RFP. He reviewed the proposed timeline and stated that a recommendation would likely be made at the 12/8/04 Regular Board Meeting. He entertained questions or comments from the Board. Seuntjens stated that during the 2002 season, the LMCD owned five harvesters. After the 2002 season, the LMCD purchased a new paddle wheel harvester and traded in two of the original UMI harvesters. Because of this, the LMCD owned four harvesters and generally operated three of them. With the proposed motion, the fleet of harvesters would be reduced from four to three for the 2005 season. With the costs of the program remaining relatively constant, he stated that he would like to have staff to provide an overview of productivity after the 2005 season. MOTION: Knudsen moved, Seuntjens seconded to direct staff to: 1) advertise for competitive bids, through a RFP, for the purchase of a new Aquatic Plant Harvester and the trade-in of the two remaining 1989 UMI harvesters, and 2) to solicit comments on the specifications sent out through the RFP. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. E. Review of MN DNR invoice for 2004 Zebra Mussel Inspection Program. Skramstad asked Nybeck for an update on this agenda item. Nybeck stated that an invoice was recently received for inspections conducted in conjunction with the 2004 zebra mussel program. Although the LMCD contracted for 2,200 hours of inspections, the MN DNR was only able to cover 946.26 hours or slightly over 40 percent of the hours contracted. The primary purpose of this agenda item was to give staff direction on what budget(s) to pay this invoice from. The 2004 project had a budget of $27,500, with $15,000 from the Exotic Species Budget and $12,500 from the "Save the Lake" Budget. With an invoice total of -3343- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting October 27, 2004 Page 6 $11,828.13, Nybeck recommended that the Board pay the invoice with "Save the Lake" funds and earmark the $15,000 of unspent Exotic Species funds for 2005 zebra mussel inspections. The Board agreed with the recommendation made by Nybeck. F. Additional Business. Skramstad stated that the LMCD's website relating to zebra mussels was recently placed under construction. There previously was material in the zebra mussel website and he believed that it was important to get the website up and running as soon as possible because he had encouraged the City of Shorewood and other cities to provide a link to it. He stated that he talked to Nybeck regarding this and he asked for an update, Nybeck stated that staff was in the process of restoring the previous zebra mussel materials on the LMCD website, updating it where necessary. He believed that this was a short-term solution and that the long-term solution would be to update the website with materials from the powerpoint presentation ~,,,~ Society would be the next step to update the website on a long,term basis. The Board discussed this and the consensus was to have a proposal submitted by David Gillette to update the website for review at the 11/8/04 Regular Meeting. LAKE USE & RECREATION B. Discussion of options on how to proceed from the Lake Minnetonka Boat Density Sub-Committee Final Report. Skramstad asked for an update from Nybeck on this agenda item. Nybeck stated that this agenda item was tentatively scheduled based on discussion at the September 8th Board Planing/VVorkshop Session when sub-committee Chair Foster and those in attendance reviewed the Final Report. To prepare for discussion for this meeting, Foster was going to work with Skramstad on possible options on how to proceed. Foster was unable to attend this meeting and he suggested that this agenda item should be rescheduled. Skramstad stated that he had not talked to Foster regarding this. However, he wanted to keep these discussions moving forward. Seuntjens stated that he was not opposed to discussing this agenda item at this meeting. However, he did not believe anything would be resolved at this meeting so he encouraged a time limit on the Board discussion. He stated that he would have preferred that the sub-committee make recommendations on possible changes. Van Hercke stated that there were a number of directions that the discussion could go. She believed that the sub-committee preferred that the Board as a whole get up to speed on the 1974 policy and participate in the discussion on recommended changes. -3344- 'J ~ J~ ' Il l I, Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting October 27, 2004 Page 7 Skramstad stated that he believed that a second sub-committee might be necessary to take the next steps from the Lake Minnetonka Boat Density Sub-Committee. He stated that he would get a hold of Foster to keep this agenda item moving forward, C, Discussion of LMCD's involvement of permitting on Lake Minnetonka for winter special events. Skramstad asked Nybeck for background on this agenda item. Nybeck stated that he requested the Board to direct LeFevere to prepare a Code amendment to delegate non-open water special events, primarily in the winter on the ice, to the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office Water Patrol. LeFevere has prepared a draft Code amendment and resolution for Board consideration. The Board also directed staff to prepare a draft general permit that would achieve the same result. This has not been prepared and he recommended that LeFevere comment on this. terms and conditions that special event applications could be delegated to the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office Water Patrol. Nybeck stated that he was working with Lt. Storms on the posSibility of the Sheriff's Water Patrol and the LMCD streamlining the special event permit process on Lake Minnetonka. In the meantime, he recommended the Board adopt the ordinance amendment and approve the resolution for winter special events because the primary involvement of the LMCD on special events was to review zebra mussel prevention plans for open water special events. MOTION: Valdesuso moved, Ambrose seconded to: 1) approve first reading of the ordinance amendment, waive second and third readings, and adopt it, and 2) approve the resolution as submitted. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. D. Ordinance Amendment, first reading of an ordinance relating to the use of alcohol and controlled substances; amending LMCD Code Sections 3.16 and 3.17, subd. 12. This agenda item was re-scheduled for the 11/10/04 Regular Board Meeting. E. Additional Business. There was no additional business. FINANCIAL A.

There was no additional business. WATER STRUCTURES Mile, Painter's, and Long Lake Creeks. Skramstad asked Nybeck for background on this agenda item. Nybeck stated that staff was looking for Board direction on the jurisdictional line in these tributaries for Code and enforcement and 2005 renewal multiple dock licenses. He recommended the Board focus its attention on Painter's Creek because he believed the jurisdictional line on Six Mile and Long Lake Creeks are relatively clear and because there are three multiple dock facilities and a pending docking complaint on Painter's Creek. Depending on the Boards feedback, the multiple dock facilities and the residential site might not be in the jurisdiction of the LMCD. The Board discussed the possible locations of the jurisdictional line on Painter's Creek. Some of the possibilities included just east of Harrisons Bay, further west of Harrisons Bay where the water body clearly get narrower, and County Road 110. The Board discussed the area in question and whether it had the characteristics of a creek or Harrisons Bay. The Board also discussed the idea of checking with the MCWD whether ditch laws covered the area in question. The consensus of the Board was 1) for the LMCD to take a position that its has jurisdiction on Painter's Creek east of County Road 110 and to write a letter to Senator Gen OIson asking her for clarification, and 2) to contact the affected member cities on whether they would like to send a letter to Senator Olson regarding the cities taking over these areas. B. Additional Business. There was no additional business. ADMINISTRATION A. Appointment of nominating committee for 2005 LMCD Board Officers. Skramstad stated that it was that time of the year for the Board to appoint a nominating committee -3346- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting October 27, 2004 Page 9 for 2005 LMCD Board Officers. Seutjens chaired this committee for 2004 LMCD Board Officers and Skramstad asked Seuntjens if he would either chair or serve on the committee this year. Seuntjens stated that he would be willing to chair the nominating committee for 2005 LMCD Board Officers because he did not believe there was a need for any significant changes. The Board appointed Seuntjens to serve as chair of the nominating committee for 2005 LMCD Board Officers and to allow him to select other committee members at his discretion. B. Review of draft letter to be forwarded to LMCD member cities regarding Board appointments for 2005. Skramstad stated that there was a draft letter for 2005 LMCD Board appointments and a Board attendance sheet for the past year to be forwarded in the next few days to the 14 member cities. Without objection, he stated that he would direct staff to forward the letter to the 14 member cities as drafted. There were no objections. C. Consideration of staff recommendation for compensation adjustment for Administrative Secretary, Emily Herman. Skramstad asked Nybeck for background on this agenda item. Nybeck made the following comments: · A six-month performance appraisal was recently conducted for Emily A. Herman, Administrative Secretary for the LMCD. An overall grade of above average was communicated to Herman for the period of 4/19/04 - 10/8/04. Her anniversary date with the LMCD is 4/19/04. · Herman is currently compensated at a rate of $15.00 per hour. Additionally, she has a six- month probationary period and receives benefits in accordance with the LMCD Personnel Policy. · In October 2003, payscales were proposed for the Executive Director, Administrative Technician, and Administrative Secretary positions. Although the Board took no action on the proposed payscales, it agreed that they were to be used as guidelines rather than policy. The payscale for Herman's position in 2003 was $12.50 to $18.00 per hour. · Nybeck made two recommendations for Board consideration. These included: 1) notify Ms. Herman that her probationary period has ended and that she has become a permanent employee of the LMCD, and 2) approve a $.75 per hour adjustment from hourly rate, retroactive to 10/19/04, from $15.00 to $15.75 per hour. · The next performance appraisal for Herman is planned for April 2005. · He entertained questions or comments from the Board. Seuntjens stated that one concern he had with the recommendation made by Nybeck was that Herman would be with $.25 per hour of the top part of the payscale. This might require the Board to adjust the payscale for this position or increase her responsibilities for this position in the near future. -3347- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting October 27, 2004 Page10 A number of Board members complimented the performance of Herman based on their personal experiences. There was also discussion on whether the Board would like to adjust the hourly rate for this position based on the Stanton Survey information prepared for this position in 2003. The Board decided to make no changes at this time. MOTION: Knudsen moved, Ambrose seconded to: 1) direct Nybeck to notify Ms. Herman that her probationary period has ended and that she has become a permanent employee of the LMCD, 2) to approve a $.75 per hour adjustment from $15.00 to $15.75 retroactive to 10/19/04, and 3) to direct Nybeck to investigate the idea of expanding the duties for Ms. Herman in the upcoming appraisal period. VOTE: Ayes (6), Nayes (1, Seuntjens), motion carded. Review of proposal to relocate the meeting space for Regular LMCD Board of Director Meetings. ,qkr~m_~f~rl ~,::k~cl klyh~nk fnr h~nknrn~nrl nn thi~ ~n~nrl~ it~rn Nybeck made the following comments: · The proposal for the Board is to determine whether to relocate the LMCD Board Meetings to Wayzata City Hall to accommodate the request from the LMCC to tape them for local cable television. · The City of Wayzata has tentatively agreed to allow the LMCD to conduct its Board meeting in the council chambers similar to the School Board Meetings for Wayzata Independent School District 284, During this trial period, there will be no formal contract or agreement and there will be no cost to the LMCD for the use of the council chambers, provided the LMCD returns the room to its original condition after meetings. · After the trial pedod, Wayzata would like to sit down with the LMCD to discuss details relating to the continued of the council chambers for Board meetings. Two discussion points at that time would include: 1) whether was a need for a formal contract or agreement, and 2) whether Wayzata would need to charge a nominal fee for the use of the room and its equipment. · Board member Ambrose attended the meeting with Wayzata officials when this was discussed. If meeting expenses are to be charged to the LMCD for the use of the council chambers, he and Ambrose communicated their desire to have it implemented in 2006 so that it could be included in the LMCD Budget. · The LMCC has agreed to provide and train a producer to cover the Board meetings. The LMCC has agreed to cable cast the Board meeting and air it on local cable channel 20 within 48 after the meeting has been recorded. All of the services will be of no charge to the LMCD. · The primary cost to the LMCD would be the purchase of a laptop computer to take advantage of the technology available in the council chambers. The cost of this purchase, including the purchase of MicroSoft Office and professional services to install it, should not exceed $2,000. Other miscellaneous costs would include new name tags and skirting for the additional tables requires. -3348- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting October 27, 2004 Page 11 · He established a target date of 1/12/05 to relocate Board meetings to Wayzata City Hall. Ambrose stated that he had attended the same meeting that Nybeck had with Al Orsen and Dave Frischmon. He reaffirmed the points that Nybeck made relating to a trial period with no formal agreement; that this arrangement would be of no costs to the LMCD during the trial period; and the need to address the situation after the trial period, including possible nominal costs for the use of the council chambers and its equipment. The Board discussed whether there was a need for the LMCD to purchase a laptop computer during the trial period. The consensus of the Board was that there was not a need to purchase a laptop computer during the trial period because a number of Board members that stated that they would borrow their laptop computer during the trial period. The general consensus of the Board was to continue to investigate the idea of relocating Board Meetings to the City of Wayzata. The Board expressed its gratitude to the City of Tonka Bay and expressed their interest in possibly relocating to the Tonka Bay City Hall if the trial period is not successful. E. Addition~! Business. There was no additional business. 6. SAVE THE LAKE There was no discussion. 7. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR REPORT Nybeck stated that the lake level as of 10/22/04 was 928.46', with the dam closed. Second, there were a number of informational items in the handout folders. This included the most recent quarterly Executive Director Newsletter, a 2004 EWM Harvesting Program Acreage Summary Sheet, and a three boat boat/four boat/empty slip spreadsheet. 8. OLD BUSINESS Increased Intoxicatinq Liquor License Discussions Skramstad stated that there was Board discussion this past summer with the charter boat companies regarding the idea of increasing the number of on-sale intoxicating liquor licenses that can be issued to charter boats on Lake Minnetonka. A letter was submitted by the charier boat association and a minimal amount of responses have been received from the 14 member cities on the letter sent out by the LMCD. He encouraged Board members to solicit comments from their respective cities because this topic is planned for the 11/10/04 Board Meeting. Pending complaint on an approved variance Skramstad stated that he would like to get some feedback from Board members on a letter recently forwarded on possible non-compliance of an approved variance. He and Nybeck provided an overview of the facts in this pending complaint. -3349- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting October 27, 2004 Page12 The Board discussed this matter and the consensus of the Board was that the party against whom the complaint has been filed has made an effort to comply with the approved variance. The Board stated that it woUld not be taking further action on this situation and directed Skramstad to write a letter summarizing the discussion of the Board. Future LMCD Shoreline Inventories Van Hercke stated that she would like staff to notify Board members in future shoreline inventories when the fieidwork is being conducted in their respective city, 9.

A welcome boost for transit, or not enough emphasis on roads? These were among the comments by 20 wit- nesses who testified Sept. 27 at a public hear- ing on the Metropoliran Council's proposed 2030 Transj~rtation Polity Plan. The 135-puge plan, developed in dose coordination with the Minnesota Department of Transportstinn, is the Council's vision for improving the high- way and transit systems in the seven-county The document is quick to acknowledge that existing revenue streams will not be adequate to keep pace with highway or transit needs in the region, which is expected to grow by near- ly 1 million people by 2030. In the plan, the Legislature, business groups and others to secure additional funding. It offers three scenarios for maintaining and improving the highway system, depending on the level of funding available. It also advocates up to $2 billion in additional invesmaents in the transit system to increase tidesship 50 per- cent by 2020, with the goal of doubling rider- ship by 2030. At the public hearing, wimesses such as ~ W'flson of the Assodafion of Mettopolitan Municipalities and Peter McLanghlin, a Hennepin County commissioner representing the metro counties, praised the plan for its emphasis on transit and its call for additional transportation fimding. McLaughlin said he believes the region needs "at least $150 million per year' in addi- tional resources for transit capital and opotat- lng proposes to expand the bus system and develop a network of bus and rail transitways, as envisioned by the Council's plan. But Rep. Phil ICtinkie, R-Shorevlew, a fte- quent transit critic, called it "totally fiscally inesponsible' for the Council to advocate up to $2 billion in additional transit investtnents. Krinkle ~dd the 44--day bus strike earlier this yeas demonstrated that 'the current system psovide~ litrle it' may congestion relie£' Roads also received some attention at the hearing. Both Nancy Schouweiler, a Dakota County commissioner, and Wendy Wulff, a LakeviUe City Council member, said the-doc- ument Lacks specific plans for new roads need- ed to keep pace with the rapid growth occur- ring in their county. 'Funding is dearly the primary obstacle to accomplishing the goals of the draft," Sehouweiler said. The Council hopes to complete action on the transportation pLan by the end of the year. www,metro~uscikorgldirec~ons/tran~ Momentum growing to address congestion Recent polls have confirmed what every &iver knows: congestion is bad and getting worse. A new report estimates the problem is costhig Tx,fin Cities residents Sl billion per year. But the problem can be addressed by putting a strong plan into action to slow the growth of congestion. That's the recommendation of the Itasca Project, a group of 40-phs business leaders and public officials who coalesced last year to create an economic development strategy for the Twla Cities. In a wide-ranging panel discussion, state legislators and advocacy groups ad&essed the Itasca proposal and tran~ortafien Kmdlng at the Minnesota Public Transit Conference in Minneapolis on Oct. 5. While panelists supported the proposal, it did not draw unanimous approval. And that's okay, according to former Cowles Media executive Jay Cowles, representing the hasea Group. WV'eke not going to meet everyone's wishes and desires,' he said. "But we need to listen closely to what we agree on. Our strength is that we are working together." The Itasea Group proposes spending 1600 million anaually on road~ and 8150 million annually on public transit for 15 years -- in addition to current funding. New revenue could be raised through some combination of toll roads, Ucense tab fees, gas tax, metro sales tax and sales tax on gas. The plan also pro- poses e~dendes in the transportation system that could save $100 million annually. Panelists representing the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, League of Minnesota Cities and the Association of Minnesota Counties mostly agreed with the proposal. Carolyn Jones oftbe Chamber said having CEOs and a unified business commu- nity at the table would help solve the funding issue at the LegisLature. -3354- Sen. Scott Dibble, D-Minneapolis, urged legishtive action this session. "The public is way ahead of thc polities on this issue. But we have to proceed in a balanced way and give people (ttausportafion) choices. Our first conversation should be about shared goals.' State Rep. Bill Kuirde, R-Rochester, was less enthusiastic. ~I sit on the tax committee, so I get it bom both sides," he said. 'I hear the business community asking for tax cats to stay competitive. People say, 'don't tax me, tax someone else to get the job done.' So I urge caution (with respect to taxes) when I see these big proposals come along."

We all know how great it is to boat on the lake. We have, or probably l~ will, become concerned that others wi~ -- ~ ~. ' ' . his treasure. We---- ~ wonder - are we loving our lake to death? Dick Osgood It is no secret lakeshore on and near Lake Minnetonka is valuable. As well, it is no secret access to Lake Minnetonka is valuable. So, we are not surprised there are pressures to squeeze in more homes, townhomes and condos as well as commercial and municipal properties on to tighter and environmentally marginal areas. Most of these lakeshore devel- opments include some kind of lake access. · We have recently learned of interest in developing addi- tional municipal docks in Deephaven. · Mound is opening a new phase in its Commons on Lost Lake. Increased boat traffic in the Lost Lake Channel may cause the increased 'calving' of cattail bogs. · A number of condos are in planning phases, including Lakeview Lofts in Spring Park and Halstead Pointe in Halsted's Bay. · We have been writing about the interest in lake access via Six Mile Creek for almost three years now. Who is watch-dogging this growth around our lake? The authority for regulating these developments rests mainly with each of the 14 cities abutting Lake Minnetonka. However, the cities are either unaware or not sensitive to the overdevel- opment around our lake. The Lake Minnetonka Conservation District has the authority to regulate and control lakeshore boat storage, docking and surface use. However, as a practical matter, the LMCD deals with these issues only once a development is in place. The LMA has these developments on our radar. At this point, we need to hear from and be supported by our members. We think it is tUne to take a comprehensive look at these issues. We have taken a stand on an aspect of these concerns (see inset), but now it is time to look more carefully and comprehensively, then act as your lakeshore advocate. And we need to act in a --rimdyqn-anner. Let us know your thoughts and give use your support.

The event will be held on Saturday June 18th, 2005. Maynard's Restaurant has once again agreed to be the host site for the SCUBA diving portion of the underwater clean-up of the lake. In 2005, the LMA will be taking the Lake clean-up to a whole new level and will be working with communities around the lake to encourage people to get involved with the clean-up of shorelines, beaches, islands, parks and boat launch areas. Look for more information to come on this aspect of the clean-up. For the -x/3C,..,.,_,A .... n.g ~.,.,mo.. o,c '-~ event~ we are once again hoping to set a new record as to the number of divers who participate.

FALL 2004 · PAGE 3 -3358- More on Zebra Mussels Based in part on the LMA's leadership, the Minnesota Lakes Association has sent a letter to the Governor and the Commissioner of the D NR. The text of that letter is printed belou~: September 20, 2004 Governor Tim Pawlenty St. Paul, Minnesota 55155 Dear Governor Pawlenty: A zebra mussel threat is now upon the inland lakes of Minnesota--currently they are in Lakes Zumbro and Ossawinnamakee. The Minnesota Lakes Association (MLA), a statewide nonprofit representing over 60,000 lake user interests in Minnesota, including 260 lake associations and 15 county coalitions of lake associations, has advocated that lake associations and local communities must take action to protect their lakes from zebra mussels. But, we also know a coordinated, effective state-wide effort is needed. Despite rhetoric and awareness campaigns, real threats concerning zebra mussels remain. We are frustrated by the slow, inadequate actions of the State to protect Minnesota's lakes from further spread of this destructive exotic invader. The Minnesota Lakes Association believes the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources' (DNR) response to the zebra mussel introduction in Lake Ossawinnamakee has been inadequate, and as a result, all of Minnesota lakes are unnecessarily vulnerable to zebra mussel infestations, which have the potential for devastating water quality and economic impacts by increasing weed growth, interrupting food webs, fouling boats, and clogging the water intake pipes of utilities. ~ Zebra mussels were discovered in Lake Ossawinnamakee in October, 2003. Now a year later, the DNR is implementing a response that falls extremely short of what is needed to keep zebra mussels contained. They are neither performing treatments to attempt to eradicate zebra mussels nbr providing full-time access inspections. The DNR has evaluated various treatments that could help, but has concluded they should not be tried unless it is certain such treatments would substantially rid the lake of zebra mussels. While this conclusion may be correct, the DNR has not properly evaluated the counterbalancing risks and, in effect, have made a policy decision to put all of Minnesota's lakes at risk. The MLA is frustrated that the DNR has decided not to implement aggressive control actions, and we are dumbfounded that they are not providing comprehensive inspections for boats leaving Lake Ossawinnamakee. The MLA recommends that, at a minimum, the DNR should inspect all watercraft leaving Lake Ossawinnamakee and Lake Zumbro as well as connected waterways, to assure zebra mussels do not spread to nearby lakes and eventually other Minnesota lakes. The MLA is committed to advocating for the protection of Minnesota lakes. We believe the magnitude of damage caused by zebra mussels is beyond rational debate. Aggressive, timely and comprehensive action is required to slow the spread of zebra mussels and thereby avoid much cost and damage to our beautiful lakes and Minnesota's economy. The DNR should lead the way in this effort by taking timely and aggressive actions when zebra mussels are found. Sincerely, Kay Cook, President Minnesota Lakes Association Cc: Gene Merriam, Commissioner, Department of Natural Resources FALL 2004 · PAGE 4 -3359- An Example Lake Minnetonka Lakeshore Restoration In our first article, in the Spring 2004 issue, we introduced a lakeshore restora- tion project on Lake Minnetonka that involved three acres of turf grass and some trees. Our goals for the project are to get rid of the non native turf, and replace it with native grasses, sedges, wildflowers, trees and shrubs. We began the project by putting together a restora- tion plan with a site specific plant list, treating the existing grass with herbicide, removing a few trees, and planting native trees and shrubs in specific areas of the project. This was described in detail in the first article. This spring, we planted additional trees, including some eastern red cedar and white pine. Our next step was to spray any re-emerging or newly germinating grasses and weeds with Roundup Pro herbicide. However, the site remained wet through much of the early summer, making access difficult. We were finally able to spray the site in mid July. After allowing two weeks for the herbi- cide treatment, our next step was to pre- pare the seedbed. We used a small tractor and various implements to do most of thesite preparation. A few areas were rototilled, but most of the site was worked up using a three point harrow, simply a tractor drawn rake. This created a firm, smooth seedbed. The grass and sedge seed was broadcast using a Vicon spreader. A second harrowing followed the grass seeding. Then, flower seed was broadcast onto the surface. Some of the species in the seed mix included: Blue joint grass, Wool grass, Joe pye weed, and Blue vervain in the wet areas, and Little bluestem, Side oats grama, Yellow coneflower, and Purple areas. In total, over 35 species of ' seedlings were used. The project is coming along quite well. There is good germination in most areas, and areas that are still bare will most likely germinate sometime in the next growing season. The seedlings are rooted in and growing, but some of them have been grazed or uprooted by geese. We may have to apply a goose repellent spray to the seedlings if the damage con- tinues or becomes more severe. Some weeds, such as Creeping Charlie have already returned to the site. In the next few growing seasons, quite a few weed species will have to be managed to p~a~fie c-loverTn th~-d~-i-fe-as.~h tot~, '-- ' ~ivekh~-'hifi~,e p~ts a chance to get over 35 species were seeded. At the beginning of August, we planted about 8600 native seedlings into the seed- ed area. These consisted of many wild- flower; grass, and sedge species that were not found in the seed mix. Many of these species would be difficult to establish fi:om seed, and they add diversity and a unique character to the project. Some of the seedling species used on the project include Blue flag iris, Bottle gen- tian, and Bottlebrush sedge in the wet areas, and Prairie phlox, Northern bed- straw, and Smooth aster in the dry areas. Also, species such as Blue wood aster and Wild geranium were used in shady established. We will discuss this more in depth in our next article. Overall, the project is looking good and is on its way to becoming a functioning native plant community. It will soon help decrease runoff and erosion, and be a beautiful haven for birds, butterflies, and other wildlife. It will also provide an ever changing display of natural beauty for the homeowners and other lake users.
