A roll call vote was unanimously in favor. Motion carried. The Council then decided to go into Executive Session to discuss several legal matters. When the Council reconvened the Council Meeting the City Attorney explained ~hat they had discussed a possible settlement of the Priscilla Anderson Case. He then gave some of.the background on this law suit which involves the City being sued for inverse condemnation. There have been negotiations on both sides and the recommendation from the City Attorney is t'hat the City purchase the 2.8 acres of land from Anderson & Smith for $1~,000 with a provision in the deed that the land only be used for park or wetlands for the next 45 years. Polston moved and Charon seconded a motion authorzing the City Attorney to complete negotiations to settle the Anderson Case by the purchase of 2.8 acres of Anderson and Smith's land for $12,OO0 with a provision in the deed that the property only be used for park or wetlands for the next 15 years and in return Anders~n and Smith will drop the suit against the City for damages. The $12,000 tp:come fr~m' the 1980 Street Fund. The vote was unanimously in favor. M~tion carried. The other item that was discussed in Executive Session was the Lost Lake Property. The City Attorney explained there are clouds on the title and the title should be registered by the City so this title work can be cleared up. The background on this is that the City authorized the selling of this land to the Mound Trolley Boat Center by quit claim deed and sent a purchase agreement to them about one month ago. They have not returned the signed agreement as of this date. Mr. Julian Hook who represents the Catholic Church asked to be on the agenda tonight along with the developers to submit a revised Purchase Agreement and ask the City to sign papers naming the Church as a party in the property. This would then be taken to District Court and a Declaritory Judgement Action would be taken. The City Attorney advised Mr. Hook that he would not recommend that the City enter into any agreements as described above. 256 December 14~ 1~82 The conversation with Mr. Hook took place on Monday. On Tuesday, at 12.30 P.M. Mr. Hook called.and withdrew himself from the Agenda because the developers could only.come up.with $2,000 not the $10,000 they agreed to at the first Council Meetlng when the sale was negotiated. Thus the City Attorney is recommending that the City commence a registration proceeding so that Mound Trolley Boat Center or anyone interested in the property can obtain.marketable title to it. If the Mound Trolley Boat Center comes forth and signs the original-' Purchase Agreement, the City can Step out of the title proceedings and the developers can go forward from there. Charon moved and Polston seconded the following resolution.

Sewer Liquor Inspection II CITY of MOUND 5341 MAYWOOD ROAD MOUND, MINNESOTA 55364 (612) 472-1155 December 14, 82 To: Jon From: Sharon When working on the water rate , I gave some thought to the amount of time Lois spends opening and closing accounts - usually in the case of rental units. I feel the long-term residents of Mound should not have to pay for this. Therefore, I am in favor of charging a fee ($10.00) to partially cover the cost of changing names and taking final readings. This would be a one time charge when a new customer moves in. If an owner wants to avoid having his renters pay this, he merely has to keep the account in his name. If you and the council feel this is justified, the attached resolution should be approved.

Larson December 21, 1982 Re: Continental Telephone Commission Order On December 17, 1982, the Commission issued its Order in the Continental Telephone rate case. You may recall from our analysis of the Hearing Examiner's proposed Order that the Examiner ruled in our favor on the two issues we pursued: Committed Construction. Derick Dahlen recommended a rate base reduction of $2.4 million. The Examiner commented favorably on our position but did not decide it because his decision on short term construction projects disposed of the issue. The PUC reversed the E~-aminer on the short term construction issue, but then adopted Derick's position on committed construction. At the allow-ed rate of return, ]0.13%, the removal of $2.4 million from rate base reduces aLlov,-ed revenues $534,917. 2. Materials and Supplies and Cash Working Capital. On this issue Ibc Co~r;mission affirmed the Examiner and adop~ed the reeommer, dstions of Derick and OCS witness, Nelson. This removed another $433,614 (materials and supplies) and $1,324,42I (r,e?.tive v¥orkin§ capita]), or a total of over $1.7 million from rate base. At the allowed rate of return, ~j:~,\ 10.13%, the removal of $1.7 million from rate base results in a redtwtion of $378.000 from allowed revenues. . __ Overall ~he Corr, pany was allowed an increase of $4,149,919. You may recall that they filed for $6.7 million, so they were cut back $2.55 mi]Hon. Of that $2.55 million, Mr. Dablen's recommendations aceounled for $913,000. The balance of the red~ciion flowed from the PUC ordered 14.80% return on equity, as compared to the 18.00% return on equity requested by Continental. In summary, your participation in the case resulted in an over $900,000 cut in the proposed increase. Moreover, the Commission decision wi]] affect revenues by that amount annually.

'Approval of Permit Applications The managers. reviewed a memorandum from the engineer dated November 11, 1982, indicating that the following applications comply with the applicable standards of the District and recommending approval on the terms and conditions as set 'forth 'in his written memorandum: Terry A. Juliar - place fill in an existing boat harbor and restore .old shoreline with rip-rap shoreline erosion protection, Jennings Bay, Lake Minnetonka, Minnetrista. 82-06 Richard Olexa - rip-rap shoreline improvement and maintenance of existiag-~aP, north shore of Halsteds Bay,'Lake Minnetonk~ 82-108 Jan Bruinooge - maintenance of existing rip-rap shoreline erosion protection, Upper Lake, Lake Minnetonka, Tonka Bay. 82-109 December 7, 1982 Pa~e 2 George Beck -- 50' Of rip-rap shoreline erosion protection, Crystal Bay, Lake Minnetonka, Orono. 82-114 It was moved by Lehman, seconded by Gudmundson,.that the foregoing applications be approved subject to all terms and conditions as recommended by the engineer. Upon vote the motion carried. City of Minnetonka ' Meadow Lane West street connection, Minnetonka. 82-115 The engineer reviewed the application of the City of Minnetonka for construction of a city street through a designated storm retention pond. The engineer advised the managers that the City proposed to provide compensatorY'~torage dOWnStream of"the'''' '~ site. The engineer advised the board that there would be no change in the planned peak rates of runoff to the creek. The engineer recommended-approval of the proposal as submitted. It was moved by Lehman, seconded by Carroll, that the application be approved as recommended by the engineer. Upon vote the motion carried. Omni-Shelter Incorporated - grading and drainage plan for 'a commercial building, 4000 Shoreline Drive~ Spring Park. 82.-113 The engineer reviewed the application for grading and drainage plan approval for construction of a commercial building.. The engineer advised the managers that the peak rate of runoff from the project is essentially unchanged from existing . conditions, but that the applicant has not adequately addressed water quality issues arising from the redevelopment of the site. The applicant's representative appeared and reviewed the plan for the managers and responded to questions. Discussion followed regarding the extent to which water quality improvement could be · provided given the physical constraints of the site. Following discussion, it was moved by Gudmundson, seconded by Lehman, that the application be approved and the engineer authorized to.issue a permit subject to the engineer's approval of final plans showing sediment catchment provisions and revised plan showing a water quality structure to retain floatable materials. Upon vote 'the motion carried,-manager Carroll vot'ing no. West 44th Street Dred~in~/CP-7 - Status RePort. The engineer reported that a preconstruction meeting had been held with representatives of the City of Edina, the contractor and the bonding company. The engineer advised the managers that a change order was issued by the engineer to delete the rip-rap and filter blanket in the project because the City plans to replace the West 44th Street bridge during the 1984 construction season. The engineer advised the managers that this results in a reduction of the contract price by $7,520.82. The December 7, 1982 Page 3 engineer advised the managers that he had also modified the contract documents to provide that the contractor start construction not later than January 10, 1983, and substantially complete the work not later than March 1, 1983. The engineer also advised the managers that the DNR permit for the project has been extended through March 30, 1983. Members of the public present residing in the West 44th Street area inquired regarding whether or not the project would remove cattail growth in the vicinity.and whether the project would affect the submerged island in this reach of the creek. The engineer advised that the project would not affect either the cattail growth or the submerged, island. Members of the public expressed concern that the island, in its present state, is unsightly and would prefer some remedial action to be undertaken with £~spect to it. Members of the public also expressed concern about excessive cattail growth along the shore area which has increased in recent years. Manager Cochran indicated that he believed the board should look at both the sedimentation and the cattail problem to determine whether feasible remedies may exist. Following discussion, the board directed the engineer to investigate possible alternate solutions and report back to the board. Permit Fees The chairman then called upon the attorney to review the memorandum submitted to the board with respect to the prior action of the Board of Managers in considering possible adoption of a permit fee schedule. The attorney reviewed the prior action taken by the board in 1978 when it decided not to adopt a:permit fee schedule. Manager Carroll inquired of the engineer what additional administrative costs would be incurred. The engineer responded that there would be some additional recordkeeping to segregate time spent on permit reviews on a permit-by-permit basis. James yon Lorenz spoke in favor of adoption of a permit fee. Mr. yon Lorenz stated that a majority of the permit review work is being expended in connection with permits in the upper reaches of the watershed and that downstream residents were therefore paying a disproportionate share of this cost. Manager Lehman expressed concern that most projects now require-multiple permits and that permit fees might act as a deterrent to application. He also expressed a desire to look at the possibility of imposing a fee where permits require a substantial or disproportionate amount of time for engineering review. Mrs. von Lorenz raised a question regarding the language of the statute whether or not the permit fees were mandatory. The attorney indicated that the statute provides that permit inspection fees are discretionary, and that the permit application Jo / December 7, 1982 Page 4 fee portion of the statute did not, in his view, require the managers to adopt an application fee without consideration of the various public policy issues involved in such action. Manager Cochran stated that he believed there was a need to balance'the issues which had been raised by the discussion and also to investigate what action was being implemented by other watershed districts in the metropolitan area. Manager Cochran further stated that because of Laws of Minnesota 1982, Chapter 509, additional planning efforts will be undertaken which will likely result in greater unifor-mity between watershed districts. Manager Lehman observed that the general thrust of Chapter 509 will be to reduce the District's permitting activity. Following discussion, the board authorized and directed the staff to evaluate in greater detail the alternate methods of adopting an inspection fee schedule and to evaluate the extent to which various fee schedules would address the issues identified by the board and the members of the public present. City of Mound - maintenance dredging to remove~ial deposited b3 storm drainr Emerald Laket Lake Minnetonkar~0und~ 82-111 ..

Larry'Bader - grading and drainage plan for 5 single family homes · and outlot, Riveria Lane South at Yellowstone Trail, Shorewood. 82-101 The engineer reviewed the application for grading and drainage plan approvaI and recommended approval subject to and conditioned upon receipt of a drainage easement for the indicated low area on Lot I and for the pond located on Lots 5 and 6 to an elevation of 967 NGVD and subject to the further condition that any future development on Outlot A require a separate permit. Following discussion, it was moved by Lehman, seconded by Gudmundson, that the application be approved as recommended by the engineer. Upon vote the motion carried. December 7, 1982 Page 5 Former Manager Lawrence Ke11~ At this point in the meeting, all appearances by the public having been heard, Manager Cochran welcomed former Manager and President of the Board Lawrence Kelley who was in attendance at the meeting. Mr. Kelley complimented the Board of Managers for its continued efforts and diligence in reviewing permits and in pursuing projects of common benefit to the District. The Board thanked former Manager Kelley for his attendance and his continuing support of the BOard's activities. Hedberg and'Sons - grading and drainage plan for two office warehouse buildings in the Hedberg Industrial.Park, Lot 2, Block 4, east of County Rd 73 north of Minnehaha Creek Creek, Hopkins. 82-112 The engineer reviewed the application for grading and drainage plan approval of this property located within the City of Minnetonka. The engineer advised the managers that the drainage proposal is consistent with the City's storm water management plan and watershed district.criteria. The engineer recommended approval of the application subject to conditions 1 through 3 appearing in his written memorandum. It was moved by Lehman, seconded by Gudmundson, that the application be approved .as recommended'by the engineer. Upon vote the motion carried. Treasurer.'s Report The Treasurer distributed and reviewed the monthly Administrative Fund Report of the District dated November 18, 1982. Following discussion, it was moved by Gudmundson, seconded by Lehman, that the Treasurer's Report dated November 18, 1982, be accepted and filed and that the bills be paid as set forth in 'that report. Upon vote the motion carried. Management Policy/Operating Procedures The engineer advised the managers that the Control .Structure Management Policy and Operating Procedures document was still under consideration by the Department of Natural Resources. The engineer advised the managers that he contemplated DNR action by early in'1983. Manager Gudmundson noted that the chart .attached to the plan needs to be amended in Zone 5 to add the word 'approximately.' The managers directed the engineer to make the modification. The engineer advised the managers that the Control Structure has been winterized. The engineer also advised the managers that on October 14 the engineer attempted to provide discharge through the structure with the permission of the Department of Natural'Resources at a rate which approximated 3ojj Dece3~er ?, 1982 Page 6 12 cfs. The engineer advlse~ the managers that the effort was unsuccessful because of almost total clogging of the fish screens by debris. Photographs taken on October 20 and 27, 1982, were distributed showing the severity of weed accumulation. Water Maintenance and Repair Fund The engineer advised the managers that the City of Medina had completed culvert replacement on Willow Drive and that he had approved the work for payment. The engineer then distributed a memorandum dated December 7, 1982, identifying · potential projects which could be considered for board initiation during 1983. Manager Carroll s[ated that he had spoken recently with former manager Donald Ringham regarding a stretch of the creek around Morgan Avenue and that the engineer had recently inspected that. reach. Manager Carroll stated that he had also been provided with a list of suggested projects by Mr. James yon Lorenz. Manager Gudmundson suggested the possibility of increasing the percentage of funding which the board makes available to municipalities in order to encourage municipalities to undertake needed projects. Manager Carroll stated that he believed that Certain projects have not been done by municipalities because municipalities 'found themselves unable to expend the funds for their portion of the project at the time required for construction. The engineer suggested that it might be possible' to request the municipalities to act formally through their city councils to approve a project which would be supported by Water ' Maintenance and Repair Fund funds. Manager Carroll stated that he believed the lack of action on projects arose from the intense 'demand for municipal funds for a variety of municipal projects. Manager Carroll expressed the view that the board would need to undertake a higher level'of .activity and to commit to expend existing Water Maintenance and Repair Fund monies in order to accomplish the needed projects. Following discussion, the managers directed the engineer to solicit proposals from the municipalities for projects qualifying for Water Maintenance and Repair Fund monies, to further indicate that the Distri6t would, for 1983, pay 80% of the qualifying project costs from the Water Maintenance and Repair Fund and to present the list of proposals and the engineer's recommendations with respect thereto for consideration at the March meeting. The managers also agreed to review the engineer's recommended list of possible projects for consideration during 1983 and to further discuss the listing of suggested projects at another regularly scheduled meeting. December 7, 1982 Page 7 Hydrodata Collection The engineer reported that the efforts to secure volunteer lake level monitoring were proceeding and that he : expected execution of the agreement between the District and the Hennepin County Park Reserve District in the near future. Manager Lehman suggested that an additional lake level monitoring. station be identified at the upper end of the Six Mile Creek subwatershed. The engineer also advised the managers that recently ordered rain gauges have arrived to provide for additional rain gauging stations within the District. upper Watershed Improvement Pro~ect/CP-5 Painter Creek The engineer briefly reviewed and ~iscussed the preliminary draft of the engineer's preliminary report on the Upper Watershed Improvement Project CP-5 Painter Creek. The engineer briefly reviewed the format of the document and discussed the recommended solutions identified in a preliminary way in the draft report. The engineer also reviewed the preliminary basin design and showed p~otographs of construction of similar basins within the Rice Creek Watershed. The engineer reviewed the preliminary cost estimate contained in the draft report. Following this preliminary review, the managers agreed that the preliminary report of the engineer would be further considered at the regular December meeting. Annual Meeting/Minnesota Association of Watershed Districts Managers Lehman an~ Gudmundson reported on their attendance at..th% Annual Meeting of the Minnesota Association of Watershed Districts, Inc. held December 3 and 4, 1982. It was noted that the District's dues for 1982 had not been paid and it was moved by Lehman, seconded by Gudmundson, that the dues be paid for 1982. Upon vote the motion carried. It was also noted by the managers that the. District has not received regular notices of meetings and mailings from the Association and the managers requested the staff to correspond with the Association to assure that regular mailings were received from this point forward. Manager Gudmundson reported that a committee has been formed .of Metro Area watershed districts with regard to Chapter 509. Manager Lehman reported that substantial construction projects have been undertaken during this past year by the various watersheds within the state. Section 208 Committee Chairman Cochran noted that the Metropolitan Council is reconstituting the Section 208 Committee and that he has applied to serve on that committee. JoJJ- December 7, 1982 Page 8 Receipt of Correspondence The managers noted receipt of a letter from Elaine McGaughey, President of the Creekside Chapter, Izaac Walton League of America dated November 10, 1982, to the Minnesota DNR supporting.the basic concepts of the revised Headwaters Control Structure 'Management Policy and Operating Procedure.

Transportation--The Metropolil~n Council approved a S720 million program.for improving the highway and transit · .systems in the Twin Cities Area over the next three years. About S519-R million of the program will be paid by the federal government. Most of the rest will come from state gas tax revenues. The Council's transportation improvement program slates about two-thirds,of the money for highway projects, the rest for tr. ansit pro]eats. There are about 250 project~ in the pro- gram, including.'111 estimated to cost over Sl million each. . The projects involve construction, fecon~-t~'uction, equipment .. purchases and a transit operating Subsidy. The Council approved an allocation plan tc~ us~ b-25.1 million originally designated as funding for Interstate Hwy. 335 in Min- neapolis, which will not be built. Because the project was cancslled,.Congress has appropriated the money for'other projects. The Council's Transportation Advisory Board has divided the projec=s receiving these "sub- stitution' funds in~o two categories. The "metropolitan area" is to rec,,ire S1.2 million. The "immediate impact area" is to receive S12.~ million; ~he area is north of downtown Minneapolis. The Council acc=pearl a $150,000 grant:to conduct the first phase of a light rail transit~(LRT) feasibility study along two metropolitan corridors. , The grant is from the U.S. Urban Mass Transportation Admini~ration, which will evenutally provide SSD0,O00 of the SE25,000 study. The remninlng $125.000 will be contributed by agencies and local municipalities involved in the study. The corridors ~o be rtudled are a 9.5-mile University Ay. route between the Minneapolis and St. Paul downtowns and a 21.2- mile "southwe~ corridor" tha~ links Minneapolis to St. Louis Park, Hopkins, Minnetonka and other western suburbs. Comprehensive Plans--The' Council gid the $om~.-St. Paul comprehensive plan conforms with regional plans for growth and development. .
