MEMO
DATE: October 2, 2000
TO : Planning and Zoning Commission
FROM: Jim March
RE : October 3, 2000 Agenda Items
,...........................................................................
Variances
1. County Bank - The County Bank is requesting a variance fur their proposed sign
to be located at the northwest comer of the intersection of Main Street and 21 st
Avenue. Craig Bode (Branch Manager) and Dave Shannon (Color Sign) are
expected to be in attendance. The variance request is for a larger and taller sign
than ordinance currently allows. There is a new schematic for the sign that is
enclosed with this supplemental memo. The revised schematic shows a two-foot
taller sign than originally proposed along with an instant cash sign below the main
sign. The proposed sign will be approximately 26.58 feet tall and 211 square feet
in size. Ordinance allows a maximum height of 20 feet and 80 square feet in size
for a free standing sign in a commercial area. The variance request is also for a
time and temperature reader board, which is currently not allowed by ordinance.
2. Hasaik Sbed - Mr. and Mrs. Stan Hasaik (6994 CenterviUe Road) are requesting
a variance to enlarge the existing pole barn structure that currently exists on the
property. Two percent of the existing lot is approximately 621 square feet. The
existing shed already greatly exceeds this amount. The existing building is at
least 30x40, if not larger. Mr. Hasaik started to add a lean-to addition to the north
side of the pole barn of approximately 8'x24'. Mr. Hasaik would like to use the
proposed addition for more storage. The building official issued a stop work
order on the project and has also issued an order to remove the interior
improvements that have begun in the pole barn without a building permit.
Committee member John McLean has announced a potential conflict of interest in
regards to this item since he lives across the street. He plans to remove himself
from the table and comment on this item from the audience.
3. Salazar Fence - Mr. and Mrs. Pedro Salazar are requesting a variance to be able
to construct a six (6) foot wooden privacy fence in their rear yard. The property is
a comer lot located at 7336 Old Mill Road. According to Ordinance they have
two front yards. They would like a variance to leave the north side of the fence
, ,
facing Mill Road located where they have already dug the fence post-holes.
These holes are approximately one (1) foot into the road right of way.
Sketch Plan for Ground Development - Mr. Terry Hannah (Ground Development)
plans to appear to present their concept/sketch plan for the former Gor-em Property. This
property is located south of the Center Oaks Development. Staff just received the sketch
plan on Friday afternoon, so we have not had a lot of time to prepare staff comments in
regards to the sketch. We will be prepared to bring up compliance items at the meeting.
From just looking at the provided sketch there appear to be a few areas of concern. Some
ofthe initial concerns would be double frontage lots, access to the two homes that are
already located off of Short Street, rear yards that have usable property on the other side
of wetlands, proposed trail location and dead-end roads not ending in at least temporary
cul-de-sacs. Building Official Paul Palzer plans to attend the meeting tomorrow night as
well as myself We will have other items to mention in regards to the proposed sketch.
See you tomorrow. If you have any questions prior to the meeting, please contact me.

MEMO
DATE: September 1,2000
TO Planning Commission
FROM: Jim March
RE : Attached letter from Roger Shimon, 1751 Peltier Lake Drive
,...........................................................................
I met with the gentleman that wrote the attached letter on Friday morning. He is
concerned about an electric fence that exists on the north side of his property. His
property is adjacent to an approximate 14 acre parcel that is zoned R -I Rural Residential
and is owned by John and Sanna Buckbee.
Mr. Shimon plans to appear at the Planning Commission meeting. He would like to
address amending the zoning ordinance to include a buffer for this type of fencing
between R-I and other residential districts. Mr. Shimon feels that he should not be
forced to construct a fence because his neighbor decides to put up an electric fence.
I spoke to Mr. John Buckbee in. regards to this issue. Mr. Buckbee indicated that he
might have intentions to expand the pasture area for his horses on his own property. The
electric fence would be approximately 8' off of the property line.
The newly adopted Ordinance #4 allows electric and barb wired fencing only on property
zoned R-l Rural Residentia1. There is nc nlcntion of a buffer zone or setba;;ks reqt~ired
for this type offencing.

Jim March
City Administrator
Centerville City Hall
1880 Main Street
Centerville, MN 5503B-9794
Dear Mr. March:
Thank you for taking time to talk with Steve Fiterman, Joel Cooper and myself this past Friday.
We appreciated the opportunity to sit down and discuss the issues concerning the 54 acre parcel
off Centerville Road. As you are aware we have an interest in developing this parcel into single
family home community. We will be submitting to you by Thursday, September 28th a sketch
plan of our lot design. As discussed we believe that a mixture of lot sizes 12;5.00 to 17, 500
would be appropriate due to the buffering and wetland issues this property has.
As means of further introducing ourselves to the City of Centerville I wanted to provide you
some additional background.
GDI is exclusively in the business of developing lots for single family homes. G.D.I. is owned by
Steve Fiterman. Steve got started in the housing industry at a very young age through working
for his dad who founded Miles Homes. In 1977 Steve developed his first piece of land in
Brooklyn Center, which was a parcel owned by his family. Shortly thereafter GoO.1. was formed.
During the ensuing period, Steve has platted over 1,500 single family lots in the Twin City
metropolitan area. The communities that G.D.I. has worked in includes:
Blaine
Brooklyn Center
Coon Rapids
Independence
Inver Grove Heights
Lakeville
Rogers
Rosemount
Stillwater
Watertown
West Lakeland
Currently G.D.I. has plats in four cities which are being developed and marketed. The price of
these lots range from first time home buyer lots to executive large lot estates. As you can tell,
we have experience in all price ranges.
I joined Ground Development in 1999. My background includes 10 years working for a single
family residential home builder as a manager providing customer service and coordinating
materials purchase and delivery. 11 years as project manager for a major financial services
company coordinating store development and construction. Most recently, I had 2 years
..
experience doing site acquisition and zoning, working with over 45 Twin Cities communities.
This background combined with Steve's twenty plus years of experience gives Ground
Development extensive knowledge and experience in all aspects of residential development.
Ground Development, Inc. (GDI) is a member of both the Sensible Land Use Coalition as well as
the Twin Cities Builder's Association - Developer's Council. We actively participate in both
organizations.
In summary, the strengths of Ground Development are i} our extensive experience and
knowledge of the industry, ii} our unique financial strength and iii) our focus and expertise in
marketing.
We look forward to working with you, Paul Palzer and the City Officials in designing and
approving a successful single family home development which we all can be proud. Enclosed are
marketing materials for GDl's other current developments. I would be very pleased to answer
any other questions you might have. I will call you in the next week to confirm the receipt of
our sketch plan and arrange for Planning and Zoning Commission feedback and review.
Sincerely,
1;;Wt~ -

Re: Ordinance #4 update
Dear Chairperson and Commission Members:
An important issue has arised in regards to the newly adopted Ordinance #4. A
resident questioned how small of a garage they could build in Royal Meadows.
Upon reviewing the new ordinance I discovered that garages that are attached to
the dwelling unit have no minimum size and those detached from the dwelling
unit are limited by the "2% of yard" rule.
By definition, an accessory structure is allowed only to be detached as noted on
page 2. On page 19, an accessory building can not be attached so the entire
first sentence of the second paragraph should be deleted. Also the second
sentence requires deletion of "unless attached to and made a part of the main
building" and the five feet requirement should be change to six feet to be
consistent with the building code. Detached accessory structures used as a
garage should be allowed larger lhan 2% uf the yard area in the M and R-4
zones due to the very narrow and small lot sizes in these districts. Most of the
homes in these districts occupy most of the width of the lot.
The "District Regulations" should be changed with the addition of a minimum
garage size. The existing regulations require 440 square feet in the R-2 and
R-2A zones and 600 Square feet in the R-5 zone. I would also recommend a
minimum of 220 Square feet in the R-4 and M zones. The commission may also
want to add a maximum size for an attached garage. Currently the building code
allows up to 3000 square feet as a maximum, which is extremely large in most of
the residential districts in Centerville.
Thank you for your prompt attention and correction on these issues.

Color Sign Service Midwest, Inc. as a basis for discussion on revisions to the sign
portion of Ordinance #4.
At the recent joint meeting on Ordinance #4 with the Planning Commission and
City Council, Mr. Greg Owens (President of County Bank) was in attendance to
discuss their proposed time and temperature sign. The consensus at that time was
that this type of sign would be allowed and granted a variance. Discussion also
occurred that the Commission would be addressing the creation of a new sign
ordinance. Mr. March would like to begin these discussions at the next meeting.

restrictions contained in the ordinance. Mr. Joe Steele, 6926 Sumac Court, was present and
concurred with Mr. Gardner's opposition and stated that his children use the vehicles and it

Way, stated that he owns a motor home that is 32' and did not want to see additional
restrictions.

to 35' versus 28'.
Greg Owens, County Bank, presented members with a proposed sign for County Bank and
stated that the sign would include such items as weather, time, etc. Mr. Owens stated that he

Recreation vehicle length was discussed and consensus was that the desired length should be
increased from twenty-eight (28) feet to thirty five (35) feet. Motor home length was the
primary reason for the modification. Mr. Brainerd stated that he would like to see Elk River's
sign ordinance. Council Member Vickers requested clarification from legal counsel in regards
to "grand fathering" areas of the ordinance, which have received modification from the re-write.
Consensus was that zoning permits should be needed for items such as driveways. fences and

III. PUBLIC HEARING (S)
Northern Forest Products - Tax Abatement
Mayor Wilharber opened the public hearing at 6:01 p.m.
Council read and discussed a letter from Mr. McDowell illustrating a number of
concerns that he had with the original establishment of his tax increment district.
Mr. McDowell's letter further indicates that he desires to expand his business and
.
mentions that he has discussed locating his expansion in Hugo to be near rail
access.
It was noted Mr. McDowell is requesting a five (5) year tax abatement as an
incentive for Northern Forest Products to expand in Centerville. The abatement
would only be granted for five (5) years if there is an actual expansion. Only a
one (I) year abatement would be granted, if no expansion occurred. If the
Council is willing to grant this abatement, a new public hearing will have to be
held. The abatement would only be granted for the increased market valuation,
not for the existing valuation.
Sid Inman and Carolyn Drude addressed the Council. Mr. Inman presented an
impact analysis to show the costs of the requested abatement. Mr. Inman
indicated that tax increment financing requires tear down or build new which does
not apply to existing businesses. He stated three (3) years ago the tax abatement
law was changed and currently is a tool that cities may use to help existing
businesses expand and stay within the their communities.
Council Member Nelson referenced the spreadsheet that was provided to Northern
Forest Products and inquired as to if the letter from them was their response to the
City's proposal and, if so, did that mean they were unhappy with the proposal
from the City. She also asked if Northern Forest Products would be happy with
one (1) year or if they were demanding five (5). Mr. March indicated that the
letter was Northern Forest Products' response to the City and that they would
prefer the five (5) year to the one 0) year abatement.

Forest Products was the City required to notify Ramsey County and the School
District. Mr. March did not believe the City needed to do so, but they certainly
could. Mr. March indicated he does not recommend exceeding a five (5) year tax
abatement.
Carolyn Drude said Northern Forest Products was requesting five (5) years.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked if the City chooses not provide a five
(5) year tax abatement, if the one (I) year abatement would solve the current
problem or is it still possible that it would end up in litigation. Mr. March stated
Northern Forest Products has indicated that they have shopped other communities
who are willing to provide tax abatement or Tax Increment Financing (TlF) and
will expand in another city if not granted their request.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned what would happen to the old
situation if the City agrees to a one (I) year abatement rather than a five (5) year
abatement. Mr. March indicated it would take care of the two (2) old notes and
that Northern Forest Products would not expand in Centerville.
Page 2 of22
Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated it was her desire to make sure the
first problem was taken care of prior to agreeing an extension. Mr. March
indicated if the City agrees to a five (5) year tax abatement it would allow
Northern Forest Products to expand in Centerville. The one (I) year tax
abatement would allow for payment of the two (2) notes.
Mayor Wilharber asked the Council if there were any more questions or
comments.
Mr. March asked what types of criteria the City may impose on a company in
return for granting an abatement. Mr. Inman indicated that under a new contract
the City could require jobs and any other requirements they desired.
Mr. March questioned if it was in the City's best interest not to invest in
equipment that could be moved to another community but invest in a building that
cannot be moved. Mr. Inman said the City can propose anything in the contract
however, the City must get the business to approve a contractual agreement.
Mr. March asked Mr. Inman for a draft ofa document Mr. Inman has used in the
past and Mr. Inman agreed to forward same.
Motion bv Council Member Broussard Vickers to close the public hearinl!.
seconded bv Council Member Nelson. All in favor. Motion carried
unanimouslv.
Mayor Wilharber closed the public hearing at 6:20 p.m.
Council Member Broussard Vickers stated she had concerns regarding the
previous probiems and solving same. She also indicated her wiilingness to offer
the one (I) year abatement with no contingencies and in the future, with
expansion of the existing building extend the amount oftime with contingencies.
Council Member Sweeney indicated he would like to see examples of
contingencies other cities require when granting tax abatements. He stated he
would agree to the one (I) year tax abatement to correct the current problems.
Council Member Nelson asked if the one (I) year abatement was a "done deal".
Mr. March indicated Council has approved the plan; however, the owner has not
signed it. He indicated Northern Forest Products will accept the one (I) year
abatement but will continue to look at other communities.
Council Member Nelson stated she was concerned with setting a precedent for
other businesses to request similar items of the City. Mr. Inman indicated the
City may control the abatement by setting a policy and contingencies that must be
complied with to grant an abatement.
Page 3 of22
Council Member Travis stated he did not like the wording of the letter from
Northern Forest Products and found it almost intimidating if the City chooses not
grant the five (5) year abatement. He questioned the ramifications if the business
chose to leave. Mr. Inman explained that the tax value is based on the fair market
value of the building and property so the taxes would remain the same if the
business were to leave town.
Council Member Travis indicated he would vote in favor of keeping Northern
Forest Products in Centerville providing the first notes were paid in full.
Mayor Wilharber stated the letter is a situation of the business owner "playing
poker" to raise the stakes. He then stated he believes it is apparent that Northern
Forest Products came to town and created a nice, well-kept business. He stated he
is in favor of the five (5) year tax abatement as an incentive to expand in
Centerville.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned if the last paragraph of the letter,
which indicated a need to come to an agreement meant that there was no
agreement. Mr. March said it feels as though the City is being held hostage. He
also stated that most industrial manufacturers ask what the City will offer them to
located within their community.
Mayor Wilharber indicated he has had contact with the business owncr and said
he does have other offers that he is entertaining and stressed the importance of
keeping the business in the community. Mr. March indicated it is easier to keep
businesses in the community rather than having to attract new businesses.
Council Member Broussard Vickers suggested having a public hearing on the five
(5) year abatement.
Motion bv Council Member Broussard Vickers. seconded bv Council
Member Travis to set a Dublic hearinl!: on the five (5) vear tax abatement. All
in favor. Motion carried unanimouslv.
Council Member Sweeney indicated a desire to have any conditions or
contingencies that the City may request be arranged prior to the public hearing.
Council Member Broussard Vickers said she desired establishing a public hearing
date to avoid delay.
Mr. March asked Mr. Inman if publication of the public hearing notice for a five
(5) year tax abatement was appropriate. Mr. Inman concurred. He would accept
the one (I) year deal with a possibility of working toward five (5) year agreement.
He also indicated they would draft a proposed development agreement and
forward it to the City for approval.
Page 4 of22
Ms. Drude stated this type of request is not unique to Centerville and indicated it
happens in most cities.
A consensus was reached to hold a public hearing at the October 11, 2000
Council Meeting in regards to Northern Forest Products request.
IV. APPEARANCES/AWARDS
Eagle Pass Single Townhome Association
Jim Halstrom, (President, Eagle Pass Single Townhome Association) appeared
before the Council to discuss the enforcement of the Developer's Agreement,
street lighting and concerns/issues with any future development of the two (2)
outlots that would be joined with their Association.
Mr. Halstrom indicated the owners of the townhomes have had to endure ongoing
development which they understand, however he explained there are agreements
and ordinances in place that govern the way things should be done in order to
make it more bearable. He then read a list of the following issues:
I. Regular sweeping of streets and sidewalks
2. Ongoing clean-up of construction debris
3. Regular maintenance and weed control
4. :-'llt tencmg at constructIOn sHes
5. Inspection of site grading and sodding practices
t:: r"1"'.......:..."" ".f:',.,+"........... ,-."n',,_ ~~,...+~,..
-
7. Street lighting
8. Eagle Park issues
9. Future outlot development
Mr. Halstrom indicated the streets and sidewalks are dirty and that someone
should be responsible to maintain them and requested that the Council look into
the matter. He indicated the developer has been leaving construction debris all
over the sites that are under construction which blows around the development.
He also indicated there are other cities with daily clean-up requirements and
further requests the City to consider improving Mr. Halstrom indicated the streets
and sidewalks are dirty and that someone should enforcement of such a policy.
Mr. Halstrom indicated the developer has not maintained the outlots and lots that
are not currently developed. Mr. Halstrom stated that excessive weed growth is
unsightly and requested that the Council work with the developer on same.
Mr. Halstrom indicated the developer is not currently using silt fencing and there
is excessive erosion, dirt in the streets and on the sidewalks. He asked the City to
require silt fencing in the future.
Page 5 of 22
Mr. Halstrom indicated the Development Agreement requires that four (4) inches
of comparable top soil be added before the sod is installed. He indicated this has
not been done in the development which has lead to grading problems and weed
control problems. He also indicated their maintenance company has trouble due
to terrible condition of the yards. He requested that the City inspect the sodding
and have the developer replace it.
Mr. Halstrom indicated the storm sewer grates are routinely plugged with
construction debris, dirt and weeds and requested that the City maintain same or
to require the developer to do so.
Mr. Halstrom indicated he and the Association expresses safety issues with the
current lighting of their development. He also stated there are too few street
lights based on the fact that their development has winding streets and the houses
are setback further off the street than other developments. He requested the City
inspect the lighting and add additional streetlights or require the developer to
provide same.
Mr. Halstrom indicated the Association is concerned about the park in the
development because there is a sports stand that is not currently useful. He
indicated that perhaps installing basketball hoops on either end would make a
better use of the stand. He also expressed a desire to provide "screening" of the
portable toilet installed in the park. He suggested shrubs or trees to camouflage
the facility.
Mr. Halstrom also expressed to the Council the Association's disapproval of the
ro................t"'""A ;r....,,^'^..........,0~4- .......r' 4-hr> '"""+1.....+,, u"" "'"V.....l,,:.....,..,~ tl-,,-d- ...,....",..1" ",;11 l~~ ~,.4-~,~,J~;l
and there will be two (2) associations responsible for one road which would be
hard to manage.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked which roads were private roads. Mr.
Halstrom indicated Voyageur Court was in their development and Ojibway was in
the twin home area. He indicated Ojibway, which is a private road, would be
extended into their Association and they would share maintenance costs on same
with the twin home association.
Mr. March referenced another townhome development that has lights on the front
of the units that unit owners leave on all night and he inquired as to whether the
Association had lights on their units and if they leave them on. Mr. Halstrom
indicated lighting is up to the individual unit owner and said they have no exterior
motion detectors.
A member of the audience, also from the Association, indicated lighting on the
houses does not add to the lighting of the streets due to the style of the
development with winding streets and setbacks. Mr. March indicated it did in the
other development because houses were closer to the street than in Eagle Pass.
Page 6 of22
A member of the audience, also from the Association, indicated cars are speeding
through the development. They indicated this was not safe because there are
pedestrians in the street because the sidewalks contain construction debris and
dirt.
Mr. March asked if the developer could be forced to pay for additional
streetlights. Mr. Hoeft stated the City would have to discuss this with the
developer subsequent to finding out if they are in violation of the Development
Agreement.
Mr. March indicated Swift Construction is interested in developing the outlots and
stated they have complied with City requests regarding those outlots.
Mr. March said he received a telephone call from Swift regarding the Townhome
Association and indicated they are looking into stainless steel mailboxes and
asked if the City would be willing to waive the $25.00 per mailbox stand fee if the
developer installs them. He also requested the Association intended to replace all
mailbox stands or just to install this type for ncw units.
Mr. Halstrom said the Association does not like the appearance of the current
mailbox stand and indicated it is not secure. Recently, mail was removed from a
box and placed in the park's portable toilet.
A member of the audience, also from the Association, explained the mailbox
stands are unsightly and difficult to install additional mailbox to the existing

stated that Swift is unwilling want to pay the $25.00 on top of the $21.00 they are
being charged for the mailbox holders.
& ",p",,",pr "f tl1p ~udience, from the Association, said they were told the post
office would pay $20.50 for each undeveloped lot for a secure mailbox unit but
the developer needed to provide the concrete pad.
Mayor Wilharber asked if the mail prank was reported to the police because
tampering with mail is a federal offense.
A member of the audience, from the Association, asked if a building permit was
required for the concrete pads. Mr. March indicated a permit was not required.
Mayor Wilharber questioned the Council if they had any issues or discussion
concerning the matter.
Page 7 of 22
Council Member Nelson questioned a lack of standard performance by the builder
and indicated the City should not continue to let a builder with past performance
problems develop additional lots within the City.
Mr. March questioned if the City has the ability to legally delay permits for a
developer not complying with the requirements set forth prior to allowing
additional building in other areas. Mr. Hoeft indicated any development would be
dependent on a Development Agreement and the City has no authority to delay
permits unless there is a valid contract issue. Council Member Sweeney said the
City could prevent the developing of outlots until the developer complies.
Mr. Hoeft stated he was not involved in the execution of the Development
Agreement with Eagle Pass and said he would like a copy of the agreement. Mr.
Halstrom provided a copy of the agreement to Mr. Hoeft.
Mr. Hoeft stated the City may take previous noncompliance into consideration
when a developer requests approval for future developments. He said the two (2)
issues must be independent but the City can use what they have learned to prevent
future problems in the new development.
Mr. Halstrom requested the City consider other developments along with theirs
when upholding development standards.

performance money coinciding with the new development. The escrow would be
available to reimburse the City or Association for havinl! the iohs done if il0t
completed by the developer. Mr. Hoeft said the agreement can contain any kind
of provision the City would like to see and he advised it would be a good idea due
to lack of performance in the past.
Mr. March asked if the Council would like to go to the development in the
evening to see if there is a lighting problem and then make a proposal to the
developer, decide if the City will pay for street lights or assess the individual
property owners.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked if there was a standard City plan for
street lighting. Mr. Hoeft indicated he believed it to be one street light for every
three hundred (300) feet or four hundred (400) feet.
Council Member Nelson questioned if the City Engineer would inspection the
street light situation and report back to the Council.
Mayor Wilharber noted anytime street lights are added there will be ongoing costs
to maintain and upkeep the lights which is an increase of expenses to the City.
Mr. Halstrom indicated this is a safety issue at this point and money should not be
placed higher than safety.
Page 8 of 22
Mayor Wilharber indicated he drove through the City at night and found that
buildings and homes with lights on the exterior do provide more light on the street
and said having lights on the townhome exteriors may be an idea to solve the
problem. He also indicated the City would be willing to look at the lighting issue
but said he is concerned for continued operating costs.
Mr. March noted with the development of the outlot areas the City would have
leverage to assess the developer for more lights.
A member of the audience, who is a member of the Association, said when they
drive around the curves in the development their headlights go one way and they
are looking the other way into the dark. She said she has almost hit people
because people are walking in the street because the sidewalks are not clear. She
also indicated a desire for a security light at the park and said she believes the
light at the park should be the City's responsibility. Mr. March noted people in
this community are out alot walking and biking and even though there are
sidewalks provided alot of people do walk in the streets.
Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated a desire to have the ongoing clean-
up of construction debris added to the Development Agreement. She said a silt
fencing requirement has been added already and indicated the sodding or soil
replacement should be inspected and if done incorrectly, it should be re-done at
the developer's expense. She also said the issues of Eagle Park need to be
forwarded to the Parks and Recreation Department.
Council Member Broussard Vickers then asked if the developer can force the
Association to take on new members by developing the outlots. Mr. Hoeft
declined to comment as he has not read the Development Agreement.
Mr. Halstrom explained the by-laws of the Association say the developer can add
up to sixty-seven (67) units. He explained the private road will expand and add
eight (8) more units than allowed in the by-laws. The current plan from Swift
Construction shows twenty (20) units and the by-laws state eighteen (18) are
allowed.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked if the developer came to the Council
with a plan for a certain number of houses if the City could deny the request if the
Association provides the Council with something that proves the developer is at
fault. She then indicated if the Association has nothing to prevent the
development it may be a civil issue between the developer and the Association.
City Attorney Hoeft stated he could not comment on the developer's plans
because there is not an approved plan. He then indicated the developer could
create a new association or create some thing with the existing Association if it is
not in violation of the by-laws or Development Agreement. He indicated the plan
Page 9 of 22
would need City approval and the City would be interested in a plan that is fair to
both sides of the issue.
A member of the audience, from the Association, asked if the private streets could
be made into city streets. Mr. Hoeft said this was not likely.
A member of the audience also from the Association asked if the Association
could be notified when Swift Construction appears before Council seeking
approval of their expansion plan for the development. Mr. March said this would
be done.
A member of the audience, from the Association, asked if the City were to deny
Swift Construction's development plan, what would happen to the property. Mr.
Hoeft indicated Swift Construction owns the property and can propose anything
that is allowed by ordinance or sell it to some one else for development. Mr.
March said Gor-em actually owns the lots but Swift Construction was developing
them. He indicated finding a mutually agreeable development was beneficial.
A member of the audience, from the Association, asked if the City would be able
to notify the Association when seal coating or other road maintenance was being
done in the development so they could join in to save money. Mr. March said the
City commonly does that with other developments and would have no problem
with this request.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned if the City Attorney would review
the Development Agreement to see what the City can do to demand compliance.
A member oillie audIence, trom the AssociatIOn, commented on the sodding and
grading at the development and said it affects the City with runoff issues.
Council Member Travis asked why this is all being addressed to Swift
Construction if Gor-em owns the property. Mr. March stated the developer is less
than responsive once the lot is sold and developed. He stated then Swift
("I"...."t.....,...,.;".... :,... :.... ,..t..,,,...r.,, "..,,(':,...,...,.,,~ ,...,."'......~~:....'""'" .f'..."'....... ~".,,,l,,.~....~~.~+-
-" --.'0- .---~-.--.O ---.-. ~._. ---rq.~~...
A member of the audience, from the Association, said her son works in
construction and some homes he was working on recently were red-flagged by the
City because the contractor had not used silt fencing as required. She indicated
all work in the development stopped until the developer had complied with the silt
fencing requirement. She then asked if Centerville could do something similar to
make developers comply.
She then told the Council she recently observed some kids playing on some
trusses that were leaning up against a dumpster, partially blocking the sidewalk,
and said it was a very unsafe situation. She also said the dumpsters are always
overflowing with debris that blows all over the neighborhood. Mayor Wilharber
Page 10 of22
indicated the Public Works Department and the Building Inspector would do a
better job of enforcing ordinances to get the developer to comply. He then told
the residents the City Attorney will check into the issue to see if there is anything
the City may do to enforce and address the issues brought forth.
Bill Bisek from Kellv's Komer
Bill Bisek appeared before the Council and discussed with the Council the 3rd
Annual Kelly's Komer Customer Appreciation Event. He indicated the Rockin'
Hollywoods would be performing outside during the evening of October 14,2000
from 8:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. He indicated there would also be a pig roast.
Mayor Wilharber and the Council told Mr. Bisek there were two (2) or three (3)
complaints of noise last year.
Council Member Broussard Vickers said a citizen recommended the celebration
end earlier this year.
Motion bv Council Member Sweeney. seconded by Council Member
Broussard Vickers to approve the noise permit to allow Kellv's Korner
Customer Appreciation Event to nroceed as nlanned. All in favor. Motion
carried unanimously.
Council Member Travis asked if there would be a problem with ending at 11:00
p.m. Mr. Bisek indicated it was not a problem but it would mean a 7:00 o'clock
start which is a little early since most people have to eat dinner, get the babysitter,
and they would miss a lot of the show.
Mayor Wilharber stated since this event occurs once a year, and if it is advertised
well, the public will be aware that the event is going on and can plan accordingly.
Mr. Bisek indicated they do send out letters to residents within three hundred fifty
(350) feet and invite them over to enjoy the day, al no cost to them, and said the
event was very well attended by the neighbors. He also said if he needs to do
some thing to better inform residents of what is going on, he will certainly do that.
Adult Soort Leagues. Bill Bisek
Mr. Bisek said last Wednesday he went to the Parks and Recreation Committee
meeting and explained he was approached by many residents in the community
for sports entertainment. He indicated there are no organized sports in town
except for little league baseball. He explained in years past there was a business
in town taking care of part of that with an adult softball league and broomball in
the winter.
Page 11 of22
Mr. Bisek stated this is an Economic Development issue because each business
helps another and if there were entertainment for adults in town the participants
and spectators would spend money in Centerville. He then eXplained the leagues
can be self sufficient if managed properly. His plan is to charge fees to the
participants to cover the cost of renting the facility and any maintenance required.
He said he is willing to get the program running at no cost to the City.
Mr. Bisek questioned the Council whether to move ahead and explained some of
his ideas would be working with Centennial School District to rent gyms for
volleyball leagues, broomball or boot hockey, along with softball at LaMotte
Park. He indicated he would work in conjunction with anything else that is
scheduled. Mr. Bisek said he feels it is a shame the kids have to leave Centerville
to play football and soccer because it takes business out of Centerville.
Council Member Broussard Vickers stated from her perspective it is hard to keep
a program running and says she is cautiously optimistic of the ability to draw
people from the community to make it a success. She said Parks and Recreation
Committee should get involved in these programs.
Council Member Sweeney stated he has talked about getting leagues going at
Parks and Recreation Committee meetings and they are in favor of it.
Mr. March stated the hockey rink is usually open and available so if Mr. Bisek is
able to organize a league it would be a better use for the facility.
Mr. Bisek stated it takes time to develop and implement a new program. He feels
'hI" h!)C' rpcnHrrp(' t() null frf'lm 9nrl if he gets nermission from the Cit;, tn gf't thp
word out he feels it would succeed.
Council Member Nelson questioned what Mr. Bisek needs from the City. Mr.
Bisek stated he does not want it to be perceived as a Kelly's function, but as a
City run league. He said he would like to use the sign out in front of City Hall to
advertise the leagues forming. He also said he would like the City to handle the
funds for fees and writing the checks for renting of space and maintenance.
Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated the City needed to check on
insurance to start up a City run sports league.
Council Member Sweeney stated they need to discuss the possibility of adding a
person in the Parks and Recreation Department to administer the programs and
that would affect the budget for Parks and Recreation.
Mayor Wilharber stated he would like to see a "concept plan" from Parks and
Recreation for costs, budget and equipment to operate a program. He stated he
agrees with the concept but would like to see what it would cost the City.
Page 12 of22
Mr. Bisek indicated he would be doing the work of the Parks and Recreation
employee to facilitate the start up. He said he is almost positive that Mr. Prew
who started leagues in Vadnais Heights would be willing to help him get things
going in Centerville. Mr. Bisek indicated it is impossible to say what it would
cost the City until it gets going. He then explained there should be no extra costs
because the facilities are already operating and the league would use them when
they were not in use by other groups thereby utilizing the facility better.
Mr. March recommended he start with Winter volleyball as the school has hard
and fast amounts for what they charge to rent the space and for janitorial and
other costs. He said volleyball should be easy to determine costs and show the
City.
Mr. Bisek indicated he could work with Parks and Recreation to come up with a
time/cost system for maintenance of the ice rink and bring it to the Council.
Council Member Nelson questioned if Mr. Bisek would be working under Parks
and Recreation. Mr. Bisek indicated he was willing to work with Parks and
Recreation.
Council Member Sweeney indicated there was discussion about adding an
additional employee in the Parks and Recreation Department but they are not
currently ready; however, possibly in the future once the program is up and
running.

at the park. Council Member Nelson told him it was cost prohibitive to send a
flier to everyone in the City and agreed to recommend that Council request the
police be diligent in picking up strays.
Mr. Skoog also complained of many homes and yards needing maintenance in the
City. He had a few specific concerns on Peltier Lake Drive and Council Member
Nelson said she would recommend Council take a look to see if these properties
needed to be cited for ordinance violations.

senior citizens in town that need assistance with yard and house maintenance.
Maybe a volunteer group could be utilized to help them.
Mayor Wilharber stated he has already informed the police department to be on
the look out for strays and to pick them up.
Council Member Broussard Vickers stated she is not interested in making the
determination of which houses are in need of repair and she would prefer the City
use the established procedure. She stated the newsletter should contain a note
about the leash law to remind the residents.
Council Member Sweeney said he would like to see the animal ordinance
enforced but indicated people need to be responsible to report them and follow
procedure.
Council Member Broussard Vickers agreed people need to take some of the
responsibility to change the situation.

IX. NEW BUSINESS
Encroachment onto the Wilharber Estate by the Contractor Without Permission.
Tom Wilharber, 6849 CentervilIe Road, addressed the Council and explained on
September I, 2000 he discovered the contractor had encroached onto his mother's
property to install the sewer and water pipes for the Hunter's Crossing
Development and had taken out an area about 75 x 30 feet of field com on the
property. Mr. Wilharber indicated the com belongs to David Vickers, 6756
Centerville Road, as he is renting the property from the Wilharber estate. Mr.
Wilharber indicated the Wilharber Estate is not interested in providing an
easement to the City for their sewer and water lines. He then stated the Wilharber
Estate is requesting the City and the engineer on the project write a letter
admitting to the error and include payment for the loss of the field com to be paid
to W. Wilharber who will reimburse David Vickers.
Mayor Wilharber abstained from comment on the matter.
Council Member Travis asked the City Engineer how the contractor ended up on
the Mayor's property. Mr. Peterson accepted responsibility for the mistake and
said it was a small area on a big job that accidentally slipped through the cracks
and indicated if there was a need for an easement a proper request should have
been made to the property owner. He apologized to the Mayor for not catching
the error previously.
Mr. Peterson indicated Bonestroo and the developer they what is necessary to
restore the area to its original condition. They will put up silt fencing to prevent
erosion and make sure the grade matches. He indicated the property does tip to
the north and what ever water does run off will go through silt fence and drain
away from the property.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned if there will be access for the
combi!"!e !0 enter the fie!d to ha!"f,"est the conl and City Eng!!1cer Peterson
indicated there would be room.
Motion bv Council Member Sweeney, seconded bv Council Member Nelson

and reimburse W. Wilharber in the amount of $10 for the loss of the field

Vickers abstained).
Mound Trail Overweight Permit ReQuest

foundation as this is a perfect time of the year and should not harm the road.
Page 16 of22
Motion bv Council Member Sweenev. seconded bv Broussard Vickers to
apnrove the overweil!ht nermit for construction on Mound Trail with the
stipulation that it be noted this is a one-time permit and that the developer

structure for the 2001 Fete des Lacs Committee.
Council Member Nelson questioned if the City should require committee
members have some connection to the community.
Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned how many people worked as a
group on the Festival last year. Council Member Sweeney state twenty (20)
people or more in the beginning and down to twelve (12) or fewer as it
progressed. He indicated about six (6) members were actively involved at the
time of the festival.
Mr. DeVine stated he feels they need a seven (7) member core committee that can
work on the issues and make decisions and then get volunteers to actually assist
with the festival.
Council Member Sweeney stated he feels that if there is a core group there will be
....~;....,,+,....... +"1,,....... "....~ +1...,......,.., ...:11 1...", (',..,..,....... ,..",..,.....(1;,...+,... :... t1...,.. ......"''''............ TJ~ ...t"t,,~ 'h", f"............1C'
..~H'~.._..., ............. .......~ .......... .. .... ....... ....."...... ........HJ.J......~..., .... UH.... y.v................. ......... ...,....,........ ........ ...........u
that this will not diminish the importance of the volunteers in any way but they
need formality.
Mr. DeVine explained he was attempting to address the issue of hurt feelings of
those not on the committee and indicated there were subcommittees to be on if
someone is not on the formal committee that are just as much a part of the
process.
Council Member Sweeney questioned whether a longer term would be better. Mr.
DeVine said the celebration must be planned from the time it is over until the new
committee is in place and that is why the term was set as proposed. Mr. Hoeft
indicated once the term expires the committee members can stay in the seat until a
new appointee is in place or indefinitely if no new appointee is available.
Council Member Nelson questioned whether a budget was in place for the
committee or not. Mr. DeVine indicated he did not address the budget because
the committee was planning on the $5,000 donation from the City and whatever
they could raise themselves in donations.
Page 17 of22
Council Member Nelson questioned if the committee could receive an accounting
of costs for the festival after the festival and Mr. De Vine indicated the committee
could provide an accounting to Council.
Mr. March indicated at several meetings they had only three (3) or four (4) people
at the meetings and had to decide things in order to proceed and that caused a
problem. He stated he would like to see a provision if key people start not
showing up they can be removed from the committee.
Motion bv Council Member Nelson. seconded by Council Member Travis to
approve the Fete des Lacs Festival Committee bv-Iaws.
Council Member Sweeney indicated he would like a rough draft of the proposed
committee formed and presented to Council. He also indicated he disagrees with
requiring committee members to live or have a business in CenterviIle in order to
participate.
Council Member Broussard Vickers indicated she felt the seven (7) voting people
need to be a member of the community.
Council Member Sweeney would like to approve the forming of a committee and
forming by-laws. Mr. DeVine said he does not want to appoint members of the
I""nT"Y'ln1;ttpp
Council Member Sweeney indicated the by-laws are a good start but said he does
not want to vote to approve them right now.
A consensus was reached by the Council to direct Mr. DeVine to get letters of
;............_",.... t'........-.-.. ...1-.....",.... ,~,,,...+-;......... t-..... 1-...... ......... ..t........ ,..,......................:...+,...,'" ".......-:1 1-.'0";........ +1.." 1,.,..1-+......." "...,..1 l-.~,

The previous motion and second were withdrawn.
Motion bv Council Member Sweenev. seconded bv Council Member Travis
to continue to recol!nize the Fete des Lacs Festival Committee as a seven (7)
member committee and to solicit letters of interest from interested parties for
consideration. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
Mayor Wilharber indicated he feels if people are interested in helping out it
should not be closed to just members of the City.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked why the City needs to pay more to
lease space for parking this coming year. Mr. DeVine said they are going to
expand the festival and need more space. Mr. March said this would increase the
need for parking space.
Page 18 of22
Council Member Broussard Vickers inquired as to subletting land and if there
would be any kind of liability. Mayor Wilharber suggested the City approach the
church for an option to lease more space for parking next year. Mr. March said
the City has a verbal lease with the church and just needed to iron a few things
out.

Council Member Broussard Vickers questioned if the YMCA would be held to
public standards or if they are a private company. Mr. Hoeft said he is uncertain
as to the structure of the business but thinks they are able to make certain
decisions that public entities cannot.
Mayor Wilharber stated the pros and cons of the project need to be considered
very carefully and weighed against the cost of having a shared facility versus
building a community cente" ;:: C'e'"!tervi!le.
Mayor Wilharber indicated he had spoken to the priest at St. Genevieve and was
told the church may be merging with the church in Hugo and they would remodel,
expand and perhaps there would be room for a community center on church
propertY. Mayor Wilharber said the priest would need to go to the church for
approval of the plan and then the archdioceses, but it may be a possibility if they
do a land swap with the City.
Mayor Wilharber indicated he would like to hold a workshop where the Council
would discuss what it would cost to build a community center.
Page 19 of22
Council Member Sweeney indicated the YMCA had talked to the Parks and
Recreation Committee about having outdoor programs in Lamotte Park as part of
their community agenda.

through the City should be established.

Council Member Broussard Vickers noted the Planning and Zoning Commission
did note they were in favor of allowing residents until next summer for the
housing of recreational vehicles. Mr. Hoeft noted the enforcement of the
Ordinance was up to Council and Staff. He indicated the City would want to be
consistent with the enforcement noting that each lot was unique within the
community. Mr. Hoeft stated the Council would need to keep this in mind when
considering same.
Council Member Travis thanked the Planning and Zoning Commission for their
involvement with Ordinance #4. He noted he had several issues with the
Ordinance but felt there were too many good things within the Ordinance to hold
it up.

IX. NEW BUSINESS
Northern Forest Products - Resolution #00-16
Mr. March noted Tax Increment Financing (TIF) was allocated to Northern Forest
Products in 1995. He stated when the notes were set up, Ehlers created the cash
flow analysis showing the repayment schedule for this property.
Mr. March noted the landowner was taxed originally at $330,000 versus the
proposed $550,000 which created a shortfall in the TIF available. He noted there
has been a substantial amount of finger pointing with this issue and the former
City Administrator had been discussed.
5
..,
Mr. March noted checks were cut for the developer and landowner for 90% of the
amounts paid. He indicated he is proposing a compromise for all parties
involved.
Council Member Broussard Vickers asked if the pay back would be a percentage
of the value or a dollar amount. Mr. March indicated the property owners were
under the understanding it would be a dollar amount.
Mr. March explained two (2) payments had been made to Northern Forest
Products. He indicated the City is looking to do a tax abatement for one (I) year
to give Paul McDowell the incentive to expand his current building. Mr. March
stated Mr. McDowell is not in favor of this as it would keep the City running his
business.
Mr. March then stated he would like to see Mr. McDowell expand his building
and approve the tax abatement with no strings attached. He noted the City is
hoping to modifY the two (2) notes and go to a closing with Mr. McDowell in
September to allow the owner increased incentives. Mr. March noted that
Northern Forest Products has created jobs and runs a clean operation within the
City. He noted the City is willing to abate up to $25,000 as a maximum based on
the size of the addition constructed on the property.
Council Member Nelson noted she was in favor of the proposal as it would
benefit the City in the long run. She indicated this was a win win situation for all
those involved.
Motion bv Council Member Nelson. seconded bv Council Member Broussard
Vickers to approve Resolution 00-16 rel!ardinl! the tax abatement for
Northern Forest Products. All in favor. Motion carried unanimouslv.
200 I Draft Budget
Mr. March indicated that by September 15, 2000 the levy amount would need to
be set by the City. He stated the City's gross tax capacity was roughly
$2,000,000, which was $400,000 higher than the previous year. Mr. March
explained this allows the City greater spending power for future years.
Mr. March noted the City could levy 1,200,000 at the current tax capacity rate
without raising taxes. He indicated he felt this was the consensus of the Council
at this time due to the increase in the tax base.
Mayor Wilharber asked if the levy limits were still in place by legislature. Mr.
March indicated the legislature did eliminate the levy limit increase amounts for
next year.
Mr. March reviewed the assumptions for 2001 as it related to the budget. He
indicated the number of building permits is anticipated to decrease in turn
decreasing revenues. Mr. March noted that police costs would increase for 2001
while the aid to smaIl governments would decrease to $45,000.
6
Mr. March noted there would be several workshop meetings for the Council to
discuss how to address these items along with PublicWorks issues.
Mayor Wilharber questioned when the property east of Hunter's Crossing would
reach MUSA. Mr. March noted this parcel would reach the MUSA in 2001 but
indicated he was uncertain if this would be developed within the next year.
Mayor Wilharber noted a workshop meeting was set for Wednesday, August 30,
2000 at 6:00 p.m. to discuss the budget in further detail.
Hugo Sewage Spill
Mr. March explained he has been in contact with the MPCA regarding this issue.
He noted the Met Council was going to use the Hugo spill to show the need for
better communication. Mr. March noted adequate testing was completed and
there was no threat to the enviromnent or the health hazards.
Mayor Wilharber asked if the non-recovered sewage was spread into the ground
or ran into the creek. Mr. March noted the majority of the spill was spread into
the field and the fecal count was reduced when exposed to ultra-violet light. He
indicated that the Met Council was not saying whether any portion of the spill was
emitted into the creek.
City Hall Generator
Mayor Wilharber noted that Mr. March indicated there were funds available for
the generator and indicated this would be a great asset for the community.

XI. COMMITTEE REPORTS
· Mayor Wilharber stated a Police Commission meeting was held and
indicated the budget was discussed. He indicated Circle Pines and
Lexington had not approved their portion of the budget as Centerville had.
Mayor Wilharber noted Circle Pines is going into further discussions on
the budget but Lexington was not willing to budge on the issue. He
inquired if the City of Centerville would be interested in paying an
additional $5,000 to cover expenses. He noted the $5,000 would cover the
increase in the budget as it does not follow the current formula. Mayor
Wilharber indicated he felt the $5,000 was a small portion to cover
additional expenses for the police department to maintain the same level
of coverage. Council Member Sweeney and Council Member Broussard
Vickers concurred provided all officers remain.
7
~
Mr. March stated this was a sman amount but noted he was concerned
about the formula created within the Police Commission. He added that a
letter should be sent to Circle Pines and Lexington to urge them to expect
the same level of service from the police department.

Nelson to advise Mr. March to draft letters to Lexinl!ton and Circle
Pines rel!ardinl! the Police Commission budl!et. All in favor. Motion

Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the Parks and Recreation Conunittee ofthe City
of Centerville held their regularly scheduled meeting on September 6, 2000 at City Hall,
1880 Main Street. Chairperson Doug Porter called the meeting to order at 6:40 p.m.

OATH (S) OF OFFICE
Mr. Tedd Peterson and Mr. Brian Walter both recited the Oath of Office for the Parks and
Recreation Conunittee.
APPEARANCES
Mr. Bill Bisek (Kellys Korner) appeared before the Parks and Recreation Conunittee to
express his interests and concerns over the lack of organized activities for both the youth
and adults in Centerville. Mr. Bisek mentioned that he was planning on appearing at the
City Council meeting on September 13th, to present his proposal to Council. Mr. Bisek is
proposing himself as the cities "recreational activity director". He would run a "scaled
down" adult parks and recreational league thal would offer softball, indoor volleyball,
broomball, boot hockey, soccer, etc. In addition to adult activities, Mr. Bisek is willing
to co-ordinate youth activities. Mr. Bisek stated the activities offered would be self-
sufficient (Le. pay as you play), which would cover any costs such as fees, umpires,
gymnasium rental, etc. Mr. Bisek strongly suggested adding a fourth ball field and a
concession stand at Laurie LaMotte Park. Through the charitable gambling offered at
Kellys Korner, the Centerville Lions Club is receiving and will continue to receive a
large amount of money on a regular basis, to be used for park improvements and
development. Mr. Bisek's concern by proposing a fourth ball field is that it would have
to go where the trail is currently located. The trail would need to be relocated slightly.
Mr. Bisek also commented that if the City purchases additional property from the
1
L
I
I
~
Church, the park would become more user friendly and provide enough space for all of
the desires of the City and its residents.
Ms. Lien mentioned she had a conversation with Mr. Palzer earlier, and Mr. Palzer
wanted to stress to the Parks and Recreation Committee the need for budgeting for a Park
Director in the year 2001 (whether part-time or full-time). Ms. Lien also shared that last
year she had brought this before the Parks and Recreation Committee several times,
stressing the need for activities for teens. Ms. Lien had been in contact with the City of
Lino Lakes several times, and they were more than willing and enthused to include the
City of Centerville in their recreational activities, encouraging Centerville to become
more active. The City of Centerville could offer activities in conjunction with the City of
Lino Lakes, with the registrations and inquiries from Centerville' s residents taken at City
Hall.
Mr. LeBlanc questioned Mr. Bisek ifhe envisioned coordinating the questions, phone
calls, registrations, planning, etc., through Kelly's Korner, or through City Hall. Mr.
Bisek replied that he would like to see the calls and registrations taken at City Hall.
Ms. Lien stressed that staff cannot take this on at its current capacity. The Parks and
Recreation Committee would have to hire a Park Director or Coordinator - whether part-
time or full-time.
The general consensus of the Parks and Recreation Committee was in favor of Mr.
Bisek's request, adding it is great that someone is willing to do this for the City.
Mr. Bisek thanked the Parks and Recreation Committee for their time; adding if anyone
has any questions, to please feel free to call him.
Patricia Scott (LeJournal Editor) appeared before the Parks and Recreation Committee
for two reasons: the first was to discuss ideas, comments, pictures, deadlines and monthly
updates from the Parks and Recreation Committee for the LeJournaL Ms. Scott requested
all monthly updates be turned into her by the Friday following the Parks and Recreation
Committee meeting. The Committee elected Ms. DeVine to be the official spokesperson
(letters to the editor) for the monthly updates to Ms. Scott.
The second reason is to stress that the youth (young teens) are "crying out" for something
to do for their age group. They are currently using the Church parking lot for a place to
ride their skateboards and bikes. Ms. Scott suggested to these teens that they create a
petition and possibly coordinate a fund-raiser to use any proceeds for some type of bike-
park. In addition, she stressed that these teens need to set an example, by being
responsible, respectable and help with the upkeep of any type of bike track that may be
forth coming.

Curb/Gutter (assumed by Mr. Porter)
90% Complete (see below)
Untouched (see below)
Discussion pursued related to the goals listed above as follows:
Turf'
Mr. Porter explained he had contacted Mr. Navin regarding his goal of turf and
curb/gutter. Specifically, the turf at Laurie LaMotte Park is in great condition. The
committee discussed the possibility of aerating the soil. Mr. Peterson commented on the
need to rent a Massy Ferguson to do so. Mr. Peterson will assume the "turf' goal, and
check into renting the proper equipment and report back at the October meeting.
Curb/Gutter (Laurie LaMotte Park):
At this point nothing has been accomplished as far as the curb and gutter at Laurie
LaMotte Park. Mr. Sweeney commented that this has been a topic of conversation at the
3
City Council meetings. The City Council has been considering acquiring additional
property from the Church to expand Laurie LaMotte Park - whether it is for parking or
park space. Mr. Sweeney suggested the Parks and Recreation Committee do nothing at
this time as far as curb/gutter, until more information is provided/determined by the City
Council. Mr. Sweeney also suggested rolling over the $15,000 allocated for curb/gutter
in the year 2000 to the year 2001, and also suggested requesting additional funding for
the parking lot for the year 2001. This project will ultimately cost a lot more than the
$15,000 the Parks and Recreation Committee has allocated.
Ms. DeVine requested the Parks and Recreation Committee consider running 600 amps
of electricity to the ball fields at Laurie LaMotte Park for future use by the ball fields,
concession stand and the Fete des Lacs Celebration. Ms. DeVine also requested the
consideration of an "environmentally friendly" parking lot. Mr. Porter will assume the
goals of curb/gutter and parking lot, and contact Tom Peterson (City Engineer) to discuss
these issues.
Trees:
Mr. Porter explained that he had faxed a grid of different trees and prices to Joe Goetz of
Goetz Landscape and Irrigation. The allocation for trees for the year 2000 is $7,500. Mr.
Goetz suggested the City order trees next year along with his order. The City will obtain
much lower prices ifwe wait to order with next years' shipment. Additionally, if the
Parks and Recreation Committee rolls over the allocated amount of$7,500 from the year

Currently, Mr. Goetz has approximately 20 Autumn Blaze Red Maple trees that he is
willing to plant for the City in October of this year, or he will store them for the City until
next spring. Mr. Porter requested Ms. Lien to include layouts of each park in the October
Parks and Recreation packets to determine the tree placement.
Motion by Mr. Porter, seconded by Ms. DeVine to accept the revised bid structure
preseuted by Mr. Joe Goetz for the calendar year 2000 - 2001; to plant 20 Autumn
Blaze Red Maple trees at a cost of $2,540 for trees, $1,200 for installatiou, totaling
$3,740.; with installation in the month of October and placement to be determined
by the Parks and Recreation Committee and Mr. Goetz. All in favor. Motion
carried unanimously.
Lighting:
Ms. DeVine shared that she had been speaking with a Police Officer who informed her
that the police have concerns related to the lack of lighting at the parks. The officer she
was speaking with informed her that there is a police grant available for the lighting of
parks. Mr. LeBlanc will contact Chief Heckman to learn more about the grant and report
to the committee at the October meeting. Mr. LeBlanc is assuming the responsibility for
the "lighting" goal.
YMCA:
Ms. DeVine will contact Craig Bodie to find out the status of the YMCA and update the
committee at the October meeting.

Trail MaD Pro\lOsal / Discussion
Tabled
Letter of Under stan dine for Future Trails Update
Mr. LeBlanc explained that through his conversations with all parties involved, most
were unable to attend a meeting in the month of August, so the meeting date has changed
to sometime in September. Mr. LeBlanc had submitted a packet of information that he
had sent to all parties involved with the future trails. Included in the packet are ideas
presented by the Design Team approximately two (2) years ago. Discussion pursued
amongst the committee members related to where the future trail will run, if it will
connect to the Sport Complex in Lino Lakes, and where it will go from there. Mr.
LeBlanc confirmed that the trail will connect to the Sport Complex. Ms. DeVine
expressed her concern that the parties that received this packet of information were not
given fa1se expectations as to where Centerville is "proposing" future trails. Specifically,
these ''proposed'' trails have never been approved, or disapproved. Ms. DeVine didn't
want other communities to plan their trails according to ours, if ours hasn't been
approved yet.
Mr. Sweeney explained this is just a "proposed" vision, and the maio concern is to
connect to Hugo. The object is to get from Centerville Road to 20th Avenue, and from
there to Hugo. We also need to know where the other Cities are planoiog on placing their
trails. Mr. Porter mentioned that nothing is set in stone, it is all ''proposed''.

BMX Track
Ms. DeVine, Mr. LeBlanc, Mr. Porter and Mr. Walter toured the Pineview Park BMX
Track in St. Cloud, Minnesota. Mr. Larry Hass (St. Cloud Parks and Recreation
Director) guided the tour and explained that the City of St. Cloud leased the land to the
ABA (American Bicycle Association) for one dollar. With the support oflocal
businesses, the Pineview Park BMX Track was created.
Some ofthe qualities I concerns ofthe park are as follows:
./ No liabilities
./ No cost - run by volunteers
./ Non-profit BMX Association
./ Provides activities for wide age range
./ Excellent family entertainment
./ Requires 2 - 5 acres of land
./ Very loud
./ Currently there are 13 cities in Minnesota with bike tracks
./ ABA Website with hundreds of pages from beginning to end on how
to get started
The general consensus of the Parks and Recreation Committee members was to hold an
informational meeting with the youth and their parents to determine the desires of the
5
residents of Centerville. The committee would like to present options for a skate park
and/or a BMX track within the City. They would also like to see what other types of
activities the residents would like to see offered for the youth. The committee requested
Ms. Lien to contact the elementary and middle schools to see if the Parks and Recreation
Committee could distribute a flyer to the kids at school to give to their parents. Ms. Lien
will also create a sample flyer for the committee to review. The committee will select a
date for the infOrmational meeting at the October Parks and Recreation meeting.
Eagle Park Sanitation Unit I Standards for Satellites
A) Lettersfrom Keith Okan and Council Member Nelson
B) Relocation of Satellite at Eagle Park
Ms. Lien explained a letter that was sent to Council Member Nelson by Mr. Keith Okan
(1841 Center Street) regarding the satellite at Eagle Park. Mr. Oaken requested the
satellite be moved to another location from where it is currently located abutting his
property. Council Member Nelson responded with a letter to Chairperson Porter
requesting a response after the Parks and Recreation Committee could address the
situation. After discussion, the committee made the following motion:
Motion by Mr. Peterson, second by Mr. Porter to move the satellite at Eagle Park
from location number three on the proposed map to the open area within the trees
by location number four. Porter, LeBlanc, Peterson and Walter - aye. DeVine-
abstained. Motion carried.
Mr. Porter will send a response letter to Council Member Nelson.
C) Council's Request for Satellite Standards:
The committee discussed establishing standards for satellites, and came up with the
following standards.
1. Preferably natural barrier
2. Unit to be anchored to ground
3. Handicap accessible
4. Servicing within 10 - 15 feet ofa accessible roadway or path
J. I'i,,~ ;vvi. ~I,;:l~a....k. ;.vl~ipi0'pCrty IL.'1e
Motion by Mr. Walter, seconded by Mr. LeBlanc to recommend to Council the
standards for placing satellites at the parks within the City. All in favor. Motion
carried unanimously.
D) Current On-Site Sanitation Contract
The committee discussed the current On-Site Sanitation contract, and determined that
next year the Parks and Recreation Committee would like to put the satellite rental out to
bid for the lowest quote.
6
Donation of Ball field Lights from Rich DeFoe
Ms. Lien explained that Mayor Wi1harber spoke with Mr. DeFoe regarding the ball field
lights, and Mr. DeFoe is ready to donate the lights to the City. Ms. Lien had included
copies of three (3) quotes received back in April for the relocation of the six (6) poles.
After discussion, the committee elected to solicit new quotes from the three (3) vendors,
due to the length oftime since the quotes were originally received. Mr. Peterson will
contact the vendors for new, updated quotes, and then will poll each member via phone
for their opinions. The following motion was made:
Motion by Mr. LeBlanc, seconded by Ms. DeVine to authorize Mr. Peterson to
contact up to four (4) electrical contractors for bids/quotes on the relocation of the
six (6) ball field lights; then to poll each of the Parks and Recreation members via
phone for approval ofthe best bid. All in favor. Motion carried unanimously.
Sport Complex - Trail Connection
Discussed previously.
Landscape Utxlate
Discussed previously (completed).
NEW BUSINESS
Acorn Creek Park Trail
Ms. Lien explained that during a conversation with Mr. Peterson (City Engineer)
regarding the "proposed trail map", the issue of Acorn Creek Park's trail surrounding the
playground equipment came up. Ms. Lien questioned who is responsible for the
completion of the trail surrounding the playground and the entire Acorn Creek Park
Grant. Mr. Peterson wasn't quite sure of who is responsible, but is willing to check into
it. Mr. Peterson suggested using the same contractor, and paving the trail in conjunction
with the Hunters Crossing trail. Mr. Porter will contact Mr. March, and update the
committee at the October meeting.
Rice Creek Chain of Lakes Park Reserve - Pedestrian Bike Trail
Ms. Lien explained a letter sent to Mr. Jon Vondelinde (Anoka County Parks and
Recreation Director) indicating the Council's actions to deny cost sharing for the
screening of the trail for Lino Lakes residents. Since the letter was sent, Jeff Perry who is
also with Anoka County has contacted Mr. March. Apparently Mr. Perry has verbally
requested some 50 trees from the City, although he hasn't come out to look at them or
submitted a written proposal yet. At this point, the City has not received anything in
writing.
Ritz Machine Works Ouote
Ms. Lien explained a letter received from Ritz Machine Works offering bike racks and
benches. After discussion, the committee elected to file until further notice.
7
2001 Budget
Mr. Sweeney explained that the Council needed budget figures for the Parks and
Recreation Committee for the budget workshop. Mr. March and Mr. Palzer came up with
the figures presented, but the numbers are just preliminary, and can be modified. The
Parks and Recreation Committee doesn't need to do anything at this time.

* Eagle Trucking has vacated the office area of the new public works building. The public
works department will start moving into the offices on Monday. We are continuing to clean
up the junk around the old public works site. Plans are being made to ask City permission
to relocate the Lion's storage shed to the new public works site to try to further the
downtown clean up efforts,
* I spoke to the attorney representing Cy Sheehy this morning. Mr. Sheehy is willing to
donate 15 acres in the industrial park to the City. I indicated to Mr. Sheehy's attorney that
the City Council has indicated a willingness to accept the donation. I also mentioned that
the City would be interested in looking at obtaining a trail easement across the remaining
five acres that Mr. Sheehy would like to keep around his existing building. This twenty acre
parcel is located just south of the developed industrial area (Goetz, Northern Forest
Products etc.) between 20th and 21st Avenue. If we obtained this fifteen acres of land, we
would have the future trail linkage area secured to traverse the land between 20th and 21st
Avenue, This would be consistent with our long term trail plan to connect to the City of
Hugo. This property is mostly wetland with upland around the perimeter. The property
has much potential for recreational uses. This could also be a site for a future watertower.
There has been an interest expressed by a local business owner to purchase a portion of
this property from the City, if we accept the proposed donation, There also exists the
possibility of banking wetland credits on this site as a potential revenue stream.
This exciting development will be discussed at the next Council and October committee
meetings.
* There was a great visioning meeting held on Monday of this week at City Hall. The entire
park and recreation committee was in attendance along with representatives from Anoka
County, Washington County, Lino Lakes, Hugo, St. Paul Water Utility and the Rice Creek
Snowmobile Association. Wayne LeBlanc has drafted a summary of the meeting and is
working to revise the comprehensive trail vision. The proposed Sheehy property donation

works right into these plans. Thank you to Wayne and P+R for your efforts in this area.
. I am currently developing a five year capital improvement plan and capital equipment
plan using the specialized software called Plan-It. I had a meeting this week with the
gentleman that designed this software. It works great. Mr. Leskee developed the software
in 1999 and it is already installed in over 50 cities in our area ranging in size from 1300
population to over 100,000. I will be bringing this tool to the committees and the Council so
that we can customize my draft plan. This tool will make our goal and objectives way of
strategic planning a thing of the past. This software also creates great customized reports.
I believe everyone will be pleased with this software's capabilities.
* Seven new members were voted in to the Lion's Club last evening. We are beginning
planning for a concession/shelter building in LaMotte Park. Lion's Night Golf is scheduled
for October 20th. Contact Bill at Kelly's for more info. Half of the spots are already filled.
The annual Haunted House and City-wide bonfire is scheduled for October 26, 27 and 28.
The bonfire will be on Saturday. Contact Ray Devine for more info. on this item.

much needed improvement and I was pleased that it was finally fixed. However, I found it
humorous that two weeks prior the County had two crews working overtime on a Saturday
with a total of about seven employees to restripe the crosswalks at these intersections and
then two weeks later the crosswalks are milled up and paved over.
* A meeting was held with John Trautz from Reliance Development on Wednesday. Mr.
Trautz has made an offer for an option on all of the commercial property along Main Street
from the County Bank location to 20th Avenue. This property is currently owned by R + R
Leasing. Mr. Trautz believes that at some point in time this location would be ideal for a
grocery store anchored strip mall. Mr. Trautz believed that the asking price for the property
is out of line with surrounding commercial property. Mr. Trautz believes that a grocery
store of about 45,000 square feet would be competitive at the location. Reliance
Development just completed the new Kowalski's store in Woodbury and they are currently
constructing a small strip mall on the outlot across from Target in Vadnais Heights. Mr.
Trautz is going to continue to talk to the property owner and discuss the location with
corporate grocery chains. Reliance has been looking at the property for the last two years.
Mr. Trautz was concerned that the area may not have enough residential density to make
the timing right for a commercial development at this time.
* I received a phone call from Mike Quigley of Gor-em development yesterday. They
would like to know if the City would like a full size tennis court at the sport court location in
Eagle Park. Mr. Quigley was going to plan on trying to attend the next park and recreation
committee meeting. He also mentioned that they were continuing to work on a sketch plan
for the outlots in Eagle Pass. He did not mention any timeline for when we may actually
see this sketch plan.

* I have a meeting this afternoon with representatives of Ground Development. They have
prepared a sketch plan for the property south of the Center Oaks development. They are
supposedly proposing 17,500 square foot minimum lots. A portion of this property comes
into the MUSA in 2001. They would propose developing the property in phases. I am not
aware of the total number of lots proposed at this time. Ground Development plans
to present the sketch plan at the next Planning Commission meeting.
* The Park and Recreation Committee is becoming extremely active. Their agendas are
growing on a monthly basis. A trail meeting with surrounding jurisdictions is scheduled for
next Monday afternoon at 3:00. A future town meeting is also being planned to discuss
skate board and BMX parks. The committee is also establishing concrete plans for
improving all of the community parks. I want to thank this committee for all of their recent
extra efforts.
* Try to enjoy the rainy weekend!

Currently, there is not a scheduled date for a "meet the candidates" event. Although, I believe a debate will
be held at sometime in the near future. JM

* The Centerville Lion's Club had a successful membership drive.
Applications have been received from seven prospective new members.
There are a couple others that I think may also be considering joining the
club. We still have room for additional members.
* Three candidates have filed for the Mayor's position (Tom Wilharber, Tom
Peil and Tim Swedberg) and four candidates have filed for two Council
positions (Linda Broussard Vickers, Mary Capra, Mike Carter and Tom Lee).
. I spoke to the Hugo City Administrator this week about some different
issues. I asked when the planning would actually begin for the proposed
reconstruction of Frenchman Road from 1-35E to Highway 61. He indicated
that the planning would probably begin this winter with construction slated for
2002. I indicated that Centerville would want to be included in the design
process and that we want to ensure that a trail component is included in the
construction plans. I also asked about the possibility of a public library being
included with their plans for a new City Hall. He mentioned they have briefly
discussed this idea, but he is not sure that it will happen. >From the way it
sounds, the public library system is different in Washington County versus
Anoka County. Apparently if Hugo would construct a library building, then the
County would provide the necessary library materials.

* I received a call from Terry Hannah (Ground Development) yesterday. They are
interested in pursuing development of the former Gor-em property south of the Center Oaks
development. They have been looking at this property for a couple of months. They have
(he engineering firm JR Hiii wori<ing on a sketch plan. The engineer that is designing the
sketch plan actually lives in Centerville on a cul-de-sac off of Center Street. He has
assured me that he is interested in seeing a quality built and designed subdivision. They
are expecting that the subdivision would be constructed in two to three phases with a total
of 75-85 lots. They will be proposing 17,500 square foot minimum lot sizes. The developer
estimated home values at $185,000-: ~' ,,, -..... .

* Mayor Wilharber and I attended a meeting in Lino Lakes last evening in regards to the
proposed Chain of Lakes YMCA. There were representatives in attendance from Lino
Lakes, Hugo and Circle Pines. The YMCA is conti,wing with their capital fund raising
campaign. To date their is $4,626,000 committed to the project. The required funding to
begin the project is $6,010,000. Darryl Silverness (YMCA Director) presented some
options for the surrounding communities to financially participate in the project. With
varying levels of financial commitment comes various discolmts to the YMCA. An attractive
feature ihat is in the preliminary plans is a teen center. The Y representatives were also
receptive to the possibility of a skate park in conjunction with their proposed facility. They
currently operate skate parks at some of their other locations. The main item of concern is
transportation to the proposed location to and from the surrounding communities. It was
interesting to learn that their teen centers have annual operational costs of approximately
$60,000 to $70,000 per year. It seems to make sense that this is a potential item that all
communities could support. The Y director will be working on a transportation schedule
that will be made available to communities prior to making any type of financial
commitments. It also was suggested that they hold community meetings in each City to
gather input and present their ideas prior to the City's certifying their finallevys
* I attended a meeting yesterday at Chomonix to discuss snowmobiles and routes in the
9/8/00
Regional Park. The County will be closing off a portion of the trail that used to be
accessible to snowmobiles. This is due to the route being paved witLasphalt. The County
plans to groom cross country ski trails in the park. The County staff has made the Rice
Creek Trail Association aware of this situation. The primary location that will be
inconvenienced is the area around Reshanau Lake. Those living at this location used to be
able to snowmobile from Reshanau Lake through the regional park to Centerville Lake and
then north across Peltier Lake to access the trails leading further to the north. Now those
snowmobilers will have to travel around George Watch Lake to accomplish the same
route. The Anoka County Parks Department plans to announce press releases on this item
relatively soon. They will also be working with the local police departments in regards to
enforcement. The County Highway Department is preparing signage in regards to the
closure. The Park Department staff will be installing barriers, snowfence etc.. to close off
the old route.
* Their is a pre-construction conference scheduled for next week Tuesday in regards to the
replacement of lift station #2 near the intersection of Peltier Lake Drive and Mill Road.
* J have spoke to Tom Peterson in regards to coordinating the trail paving in Acorn Creek
Park at the same time the trail is paved in Hunter's Crossing. Mr. Peterson indicated that
he would make sure that these trails were paved at the same time. It is anticipated that
these trails will be paved this fall.
* Enjoy your weekend! Vikings 1-0, Packers 0-1
