N � METRO LAND SURVEYING i .4 vaa & E GINEERING A 332 E Co. Rd. D, Little Canada, WC 551 t 7 • phone (651) 766.0112 fax (651) 766 -0612 March 25, 1999 City of Centerville 1880 Main Street Centerville, MN 55038 RE: Preliminary Plat of Deer Pass City Staff: In accordance with City of Centerville Ordinance No. 55.03 -1 we have prepared the following statements to describe the proposed Planned Unit Development (PUD) of DEER PASS. 1) The proposed PUD is situated on the East Half of the South Half of the Northeast Quarter of the Southeast Quarter of Section 14, Township 31, Range 22. The site is approximately 10 acres of land is located along C.S.A.H. No. 21 (20` Avenue North) about 1 mile north of Main Street. Site is gently sloping from 20 Avenue to the west where the property intersects DNR protected wetland No. 545W. The development is designed to protect the DNR wetland while providing adequate conditions for a 15 unit single family development. The site falls within the city zoning policies and is in compliance with the comprehensive plan. The target market for this development will be single family residence with a minimum value of $150,000.. Market demand for this type of housing product is very high. 2) The request for PUD is being presented to allow for reduced setbacks and several exceptions to the R -5 lot size and width requirements. This will allow for an orderly layout while taking the unique environmental features (namely DNR wetland 545W) presented by this site into consideration. 3) The land proposed in this PUD is currently owned by: R & R Leasing, Inc., P.O. Box 324, Hugo, MN 55038. There are two Property Identification Numbers for this parcel: 14- 31 -22- 41 -0005 and 14- 31 -22 -41 -0006. A list of property owners within 500 feet of this parcel is attached. 4) This development will consist of one phase. Platting and construction will proceed immediately upon approval of the PUD and we anticipate that grading, utilities and street will be finished within 6 months. 5) Preliminary plat, utility and grading, drainage and erosion control plans have been submitted with this letter and should be referred to for graphic depiction of PUD specifics. 6) See number 5. 7) See number 5. 8) Services will be provided according to the preliminary utility plan (and City of Centerville review). Sanitary sewer and water main connections are available approximately 200 feet south of the proposed PUD. Extension of these services northerly to our site and along Deer Pass Drive should provide an orderly progression for the city's infrastureture improvements. US West telephone service is available adjacent the PUD along 20 Avenue North as is electric service via an overhead line by Connexus Engery. Gas service by Minnegasco is available on the East side of 20 Avenue North. 9) Soil borings have been scheduled and a report will follow from Braun Engineering. 10) The PUD will consist of 15 single family lots on 436,765 sq.ft. (10.03 acres). A) Area devoted to driveways and houses is 54,065 sq.ft. (1.24 acres). B) House types included in the above calculation are all walkout, split entry walkout or lookout lots together with the driveways is 54,065 sq.ft. (1.24 acres) C) Green space covers 350,000 sq.ft. (8.03 acres). This will not be classified as common open space: The open space will be held individually by land owners and be covered with the necessary easements to ensure protection of the existing and proposed wetland area. D) No area is devoted to public open space. E) Street areas: I) 20 Ave. N.: ROW = 33,000 sq.ft. (0.75 acres) Paved area = 13,200 sq.ft.(0.30 acres). 2) Deer Pass Dr: ROW = 43,563 sq.ft.(1.0 acres) Paved area = 19,500 sq.ft. (0.45 acres). F) No additional off street parking is provided as all lots will have garages and driveways. G) No commercial uses are included in this PUD. H) No office or industrial uses are included in this PUD. 11) One Phase construction. 12) Open spaces are held by individuals and DNR Wetland No. 545W falls under the jurisdiction of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. 13) Restrictive covenants will be limited to drainage, utility, ponding and flowage easements over the wetlands as shown on the preliminary plat. 14) Schematic Utilities plan shown on Preliminary Utility Plan. 15) Additional comments: A) Although several exemptions from the R -5 zoning requirements for setback, lot width and area have been requested we are attempting to create a high end subdivision which complies with the goals of R -5 zoning. B) The proposed development is adjacent to CENTER HILLS 2 AND 3 ADDITIONS both are R -2 zoning. Hence DEER PASS would be a logical progression for residential development. C) We feel our cul -de -sac and subdivision design will serve several purposes: a) provide a neighborhood feel and environment in with R -5 zoning, b) provides limited access onto 20 Avenue North (C.S.A.H. 21) with desirable site distances and low traffic flows allowing for safe access onto the county road, c) a confined development which will transition from R -2 to R -5 zoning. D) As a low traffic cul -de -sac we do not feel sidewalks are necessary for safety purposes and do not see a benefit the City of Centerville trail system. There are no city parks directly adjacent to the development no current walkways extend to the development. E) No significant trees exist on the site The area is generally open along 20 Avenue North with scrub and brush towards the west. F) There will not be an association established with this PUD. Any restrictions will be handled through easements. This list or responses is intended to be as thorough as possible. However should you have questions, feel free to call if you have any questions, problems or need clarifications.

PRESENT: Chairwoman Kathy Welk Commission Members Linda Broussard Vickers John Buckbee Mr. LaMotte LaMotte Brian Hanson Mayor Tom Wilharber Councilmember Theresa Brenner Councilmember Mari Nelson ABSENT: None STAFF/ CONSULTANTS: Jim March, City Administrator Ry -Chel Gaustad, City Clerk Paul Palzer, Public Works/Building Inspector Dean Johnson (Resource Strategies) ********************************************** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ** Chair Welk opened the workshop at 6:10 p.m. Ms. Gaustad reported that Mr. Dean Johnson from Resource Strategies was present to discuss Ordinance #4 and establishing zoning regulations and land use issues for the City of Centerville. Mr. Johnson explained the purpose of revising the ordinance is to include amendments and to allow the ordinance to be more readable and `user friendly." Moreover, the contents of the ordinance encompasses; general provisions, zoning districts/use regulations/performance standards, administration and enforcement. Major point: Conditional Use Permits omitted and replaced with "Interim Use" which allows a use within a time frame; however, the Commission must identify "Interim Uses." Ms. Broussard Vickers questioned the possibility to place a moratorium on zoning changes, and building changes, until the ordinance is complete. Mr. Johnson explained that a moratorium does not require a public hearing if the City requests a delay in zoning and building construction until 1 the zoning ordinance is in place. Moreover, conflicting verbiage in the past ordinance on variance - when the Council makes a decision on a variance the only repeal made will be at the court level. However, the ordinance can reflect that Council will hear repeals. Ms. Broussard Vickers questioned if the City should place the philosophy "Small Town Atmosphere" in the body of the ordinance. Mr. Johnson commented the ordinance will outline that theme through factual items. Mr. March questioned the approach the city should consider if a rezone or building change request is submitted. Mr. Johnson suggested the Commission work on the updated draft Ordinance #4. Motion by Mr. Buckbee, seconded by Ms. Broussard Vickers to adjourn the workshop meeting at 7:05 p.m. PUBLIC HEARING (S) A. Variance Request - Hanson (7149 Brian Drive) Mr. Eric Hanson requested the Commission to grant a variance for a three foot easement encroachment in order to build an addition. The Hanson's answered the Commission question that the situation is not unique and it doesn't have special conditions or circumstances that surround the reasoning behind the request. Ms. Broussard Vickers specifically questioned if without the request the Hanson family would be deprived of rights commonly enjoyed by other property owners. Ms. Joni Hanson said "No, that they are not being deprived of rights commonly enjoyed by other property owners." Ms. Broussard Vickers noted that Ordinance #4, Section 65. 03 -1 (Special conditions and circumstances exist which are peculiar to the land, structure or building involved and do not result from the actions of the petitioner.) Ms. Joni Hanson explained that there are no special or peculiar circumstances that surrounds the request. Mr. Buckbee questioned if the Hanson house could expand the addition to the west (rear yard) Mr. Hanson explained that there is a 12 X 24 screened porch that limits the addition possibilities. Motion by Broussard- Vickers, seconded by Mr. LaMotte to close at 7:20 p.m. B. Variance Request - Vesel (7055 - 21st Street) Motion by Broussard Vickers, seconded by Mr. Buckbee to close the Pubic Hearing. Motion carried unanimously. C. Variance Request - Wolf Ms. Welk opened the meeting by explaining that Mr. Wolf addressed the Commission during the 2 last meeting and had requested to construct an accessory building in his side (rear) yard. Mr. Wolf expressed the desire to construct an accessory building as soon as possible. Mr. Craig Kurtis (1902 Center Street) expressed concern that the building will be closer to his structure than Mr. Wolfs house. Mr. Michael Carter (6173 Sumac Court) stated that he has no problem with Mr. Wolf constructing an accessory building (See attached letter). Hearing no further comments the Commission took the following action: Motion by LaMotte, Mr. Broussard Vickers seconded by Mr. Buckbee to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously. D. Rezone Request - Rehbein (Property East of Willow Glen) Ms. Gaustad gave a brief overview of the proposed request to rezone the property east of Willow Glen town home development. Mr. Rehbein explained the property zoned commercial is surrounded by commercial properties and requested the rezone be granted. Mr. Buckbee questioned the road and traffic circulation. Mr. Dale Rukel (Bright Keys) is looking to expand and the property assist the process. Willow Glen's (Sales and Marketing Manager) noted that 55 of 62 existing property owners have signed a petition requesting the City change the zoning status from commercial to residential. Ms. Debra Kopp (2055 Willow Circle) voiced concern about high density and the possibilities of the town homes developing like Willow Glen. Ms. Norma Essix (7333 Old Mill Road) commented that the city needs the Commercial tax base. Mr. Hanson questioned the traffic stress on Main Street. Mr. Rehbein commented Anoka County has restricted access onto Main Street. Motion by Ms. Broussard Vickers seconded by Mr. Hanson to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously. APPEARANCE (S) ACTION ITEMS A. Action on Variance Request - Hanson Chair Welk noted receipt of a letter indicating consent to the variance request which is signed by two property owners. 3 Ms. Broussard Vickers mentioned the Planning and Zoning commission's requirement to grant a variance and the situation is not unique. Therefore, she did not recommend granting the variance. Motion by Broussard Vickers, seconded by Mr. Buckbee to deny the variance request based on the ordinance requirements outlined in Section 65.03 -1. Motion carried unanimously. B. Action on Variance Request - Vesel Ms. Gaustad distributed pictures of the proposed structure. Motion by Ms. Broussard Vickers, seconded by Mr. Buckbee to recommend to the Council to deny the variance request based on the fact that it does not conform to the requirements of the ordinance and violates Ordinance #4, building material as well as the building is within the right - of -way. Motion carried unanimously. C. Action on Variance Request - Wolf Ms. Broussard Vickers explained that there are too many issues to discuss; side yard, rear yard, size of building, etc. In short, Ms. Broussard suggested waiting until the ordinance is in place. Motion by Broussard Vickers, seconded by Mr. Buckbee to table this request until the May meeting - due to new ordinance consideration. Motion carried unanimously. D. Rezone Request - Rehbein (Property East of Willow Glen) Ms. Gaustad distributed a letter that the City received that is in favor of the rezone request. Chair Welk noted receipt of the letter. Ms. Broussard Vickers inquired about the comparisons in tax base between commercial or residential. Mr. Rehbein stated that the residential zoning will benefit the tax base more than commercial. The Commercial tax will not go into effect until after the buildings are constructed and taxed. Ms. Broussard Vickers questioned if the Met Council will have concerns with a rezone change. Mr. March felt that Met Council may have more concerns with providing utilities than the rezone. Ms. Jenny Gilmore (2031 Willow Glen) would rather see residential zoning than commercial. Councilmember Ms. Mari Nelson said that she would rather have the property zoned commercial instead of residential. Chair Welk questioned the traffic circulation and potential traffic congestion concerns. A gentleman from (2005 Willow Glen) will increase his property value and strongly urged the Commission to consider authorizing residential zoning. 4 Mr. Brett Baily (2037 Willow Circle) said he would rather see the rezone approved than leave it commercial. Motion by Mr. Buckbee, seconded by LaMotte to table the rezone contingent upon Mr. Rehbein signing a 45 day waiver and that Staff report the tax difference between commercial and residential. Motion carried unanimously. DISCUSSION ITEMS A. Subdivision Sketch Plan - Mr. Gerald Rehbein The Commission discussed the 15 parcel subdivision sketch for R5 homes. The Commission acknowledged that the cul -de -sac should be placed at the end of the road, 5 variances for lot size and lot width. Mr. Rehbein commented that a sound drainage plan would require the row of trees to be removed. Ms. Broussard Vickers recalled the City granted variances for the Lessard development and may be permissible with the peculiar wetland issues. Mr. Wayne LaBlanc (1677 Peltier Lake) would prefer Mr. Rehbein attempt to meet with the R5 requirements. The Commission discussed in great length PUD (Planned Unit Development) and its requirements. The Commission requested staff seek legal guidance as to whether or not a variance takes precedence over a PUD. Motion by Ms. Broussard Vickers, seconded Mr. Buckbee to direct staff to contact the attorney and receive input in regards to whether a variance or a PUD, and to work with the developer on the best way to address the wetland issues. Motion carried unanimously. B. Consider audio /video taping meeting Ms. Gaustad reported the Council requested the Commission consider audio or video taping meetings for reference purposes. Motion by Broussard Vickers, seconded by Mr. Buckbee to approve that the Commission meetings be audio taped. Motion carried unanimously. C. Land Use Planning Workshop Ms. Broussard Vickers and Mr. Brian Hanson noted interest in attending the workshop. D. Review Proposed Ordinances: 151. Flood Damage Prevention 152. Mobile Home Parks 5 E.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS Meeting Minute Delivery Time Ms. Gaustad updated the Council on their past meeting discussion regarding the distribution of minutes which resulted in a tie vote. The discussion tapered to either having the minutes delivered within four business days of a meeting or have them delivered in the next packet. Councilmember Nelson felt the minutes should be delivered within four days in hopes to have faster and better communication. Councilmember Travis felt the Planning meeting minutes should be available prior to discussing items forwarded by the Commission. Mayor Wilharber felt providing service or addressing other needs maybe more important than receiving the minutes within four business days after a meeting. Mayor Wilharber noted that the City has two staff members and a Council liaison present at the Planning Commission and whom can report or update on the Council on issues. Councilmember Sweeney felt that the City should establish a policy and institute the delivery of minutes over a specific amount time.

Water /Sewer Rate Analysis - Fred Stenborg Mr. Stenborg gave a brief overview of the need to implement a water and sewer rate policy. Moreover, he presented his phase 1 analysis of the City sewer, water and storm sewer funds and their respective current rates. Mr. Stenborg specifically identified the replacement funds. Mr. Stenborg commented that they have prepared specific recommendations for a phase two study to address some concerns and limitations with the current utility rates for Sanitary Sewer, Water and Storm Sewers.

NEW BUSINESS Little League Agreement Mr. March explained the request for an agreement between the Chain of Lakes Little League and the City of Centerville. The Chain of Lakes Little League contributed a large amount of money to develop Laurie LaMotte Memorial Park and they would like to enter into an agreement with the City for scheduled uses of the park. The Little League needs to know the City's response to a proposal requesting priority and city maintenance. After review, Mr. Hoeft suggested that the agreement be changed to read the "Facility Maintenance Amendment" instead of "Facility Maintenance Agreement." This is in hopes to note the change that the City will maintain the park within its means, not to drag the field daily nor to clip the grass on certain days. Motion by Councilmember Brenner, seconded by Councilmember Nelson to approve the Facility Maintenance Agreement with the Chain of Lakes Little League. Motion carried. Mailbox Stands for Parkview Addition Mr. March gave a brief overview of the Parkview Developer, Richard Carlson's request to install mailbox stands and to amend the development agreement to reflect the change. In addition, Mr. Carlson would like the City to reimburse him the $25 fee that the City collects with each building permit to help defray the cost of construction of the stands. Moreover, the developer is willing to pay the additional cost to construct sawn cedar mailbox stands. Motion by Councilmember Travis, seconded Councilmember Sweeney to have the developer of Parkview be reimbursed $25.00 per structure, after the development complete. City Hall / Park Maintenance Mr. March gave a presentation on the current City program regarding the fertilizers and maintaince of the grounds for City Hall and parks.

The Council took no action. Centennial School Facility Task Force Mayor Wilharber commented that the Centennial School Board authorized the initiation of a Facility Task Force to look at short and long -term student housing needs. The committee will be officially appointed by the School Board at its April 12, 1999 meeting. Mayor Wilharber commented that the School requested a name be forwarded to Mr. John McClellan, Superintendent of Schools by Friday, April 2, 1999 if possible. Councilmember Travis volunteered to represent the City in this matter. Board of Review Ms. Gaustad noticed that a Council workshop and the Board of Review are scheduled for April 7th and 8th, and she suggested the two meetings be conducted together on Thursday, April 8, at 6:00 p.m. The Council concurred the meetings should be conducted together.

COMMITTEE REPORTS Tri City Task Force Mr. March noted the next meeting scheduled on March 30, 1999 at 7:00 p.m. Mayor Wilharber requested the Council's approval of the International Association of the Chief of Police formula. Motion by Councilmember Brenner, seconded by Councilmember Travis that the Council approve the International Association of Chief of Police formula for the CPLPD. Motion carried. XII. ADMINISTRATORS REPORT Mr. March requested Mr. Hoeft to explain the Uniform Housing Code (UHC) and how the board of appeals could be set up. Mr. Hoeft explained that the Council my find it beneficial to keep the board of appeals within the City organization, such as Planning and Zoning or the Council. However; the City may want to consider waiting, in order to fully understand the whole process and options that are available. The City of Minnetonka has set up a board of appeals within its government. Whereas, other Cities utilize the Planning Conunission or the Council to be the Board of Appeals. Furthermore, enforcement may be a concern and it may be too difficult for the Building Official to handle it alone. Mr. Hoeft warned the Council of potential discrimination threats if the process is not followed closely. The adoption of the UHC allows for the City to clean up troubled areas. The easiest way is to make the Council the appeal board. Motion by Councilmember Nelson, seconded by Councilmember Brenner to authorize staff to enforce the UHC on a complaint basis. The Building Official will monitor and regulate the code and make the Council the board of appeals. Motion carried. XIII. ADJOURNMENT Motion by Councilmember Sweeney, seconded by Councilmember Brenner to adjourn the March 24, 1999 Council Meeting. Motion carried. Meeting adjourned at 8:00 p.m. Respectfully Submitted, Ry -Chel Gaustad, CMC City Clerk Page 5 of 5 NOT APPROVED WORKSHOP MEETING AGENDA MARCH 23, 1999 6:00 P.M. Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the City Council of the City of Centerville held a workshop on March 23, 1999 at City Hall, 1880 Main Street. PRESENT: Mayor Tom Wilharber Council Members: Theresa Brenner Mari Nelson Richard Travis Terry Sweeney (arrived at 7:00 p.m.) ABSENT: None STAFF: Jim March, City Administrator Paul Palzer, Public Works Director/Building Official CALL TO ORDER Mayor Wilharber called the March 23, 1999 Workshop meeting to order at 6:00 p.m. 1. PUBLIC WORKS BUILDING Mayor Wilharber opened the discussion by questioning future purchases of additional equipment for the city. Mr. Palzer, Public Works Director responded by stating that sometime in the future the city will need a new loader or bobcat. Furthermore, as we add additional staff members, we will need to expand our mowing and park vehicles to maintain our parks at a higher level then we have in the past. Mr. Palzer continued, stating that he would like to see the city purchase a used snowplow truck for the heavier snow falls. Councilmember Nelson addressed the issue of the number of employees and questioned Mr. Palzer what he thought might be needed. Mr. Palzer indicated that it is hard to tell at this point, that it will depend on the service needs of the city. Currently, we have two full time public works employees besides Mr. Palzer. The City also has one full time building inspector. Future staffing needs cannot be determined at this point. Mayor Wilharber explained that the building analysis was currently completed on March 19, 1999. The analysis lists the four different options available and reviews the city's development. Mr. March explained that the analysis included input from Mr. Palzer, Tim Danielson, and Robert Westerlund from the Public Works Department. Although the analysis is complete, a couple of other options have surfaced. One would be to possibly do something on the site behind City Hall. The other would be to possibly develop the property just north of LaMotte Park which is currently owned by St. Genevieve's Parish. There has been an effort started recently to see if the Archdiocese would be interested in parting with the property. This option may be quite lengthy, and if investigated further, the possibility of losing the two existing building options would exist . Mayor Wilharber suggested that the Council review the options that are available and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each. Mr. March stated the cost option is listed on the back page of the analysis, but it was difficult to determine without getting an architect involved. Option #1: ii! t i- _ g - 1 • . : me I - 1. ► .• - Advantages: Central location Already own the land Existing building there that could be renovated Site is adequate size for full development Site could be redeveloped to spur downtown revitalization Disadvantages: Downtown area is being revitalized Currently surrounded by residential area Could be costly to renovate Two buildings less desirable Not consistent with Design Team Vision No municipal water to site Option #2• Eagle Trucking Facility at 7087 20th Avenue South Advantages: Nice location Nice office space Enclosed parking area Utilities available (not sewer) Less disruptive to adjacent neighbors than current location Disadvantages: Loss of tax base Loss of area employer Expenses related to current public works site Option #3 Lake rea ility Building at 6 995 20th Avenue South Advantages: Nice location Adequate office space Adequate shop space Potential for additional tenants Utilities available (water and sewer available) Reasonable price Disadvantages: Loss of tax base Floodplain issue Expenses related to current public works facility New residential area to be developed to west of property 2 Mr. March further explained that in options two and three, the city would still be looking at some expenses in regards to what we would do with the current public works facility and the downtown area. One idea was to save one of the buildings for a heritage museum and possibly demolish the other building. There would be a cost involved in regards to ongoing operation and maintenance. Another issue would be deciding who would be responsible for the utilities. Option #4' Cedar Street Park Advantages: City owns the land We could build exactly what we want Few residential neighbors to worry about Disadvantages: Cost for building and utilities Isolated location More valuable to sell as industrial Mayor Wilharber asked the Council if there was any of the four options that they would like to throw out right now or if they would like to continue to look at all four options. Councilmember Travis stated that he had some concerns about the size and the future use of the building. Councilmember Travis also questioned whether the Cedar Street location could be used as a dual purpose. The City has talked about a possible salt storage with the County, as well as obtaining a second water tower. In order to incorporate these items, Councilmember Travis stated that he was thinking about an office - warehouse type building, basically a slab on grade where you don't have to worry about ADA and there would be bathrooms, and offices for the police. Councilmember Travis continued, stating the he was looking more for a building that would be like a pole -barn with a house at the end of it. Mr. March commented that previously he was involved in a similar project and at that time, building construction was $65 a square foot. Mr. Palzer added that now we are looking at about $100 per square foot for 6000 square feet, and that we need to keep in mind that this facility will be around for the next 80 to 100 years. Mr. March indicated that the City of Circle Pines just built a fire department about that size and that it cost $995,000 and that was without showers. Due to the cost and complexity of this option, it was dropped as a possible location for the new Public Works building. Councilmember Nelson suggested that we would be better off as a City to sell this property then to build on it because we could actually make some money. The Council continued by discussing option #1 and decided that it should be thrown out due to the disadvantages listed and it being an eyesore to the downtown area. After a lengthy discussion between options #2 and #3, the Council decided that the Lake Area Utilities location would be the most favorable option. The reasons for the decision include the following: less cost, growth possibilities, not primarily residential, obtain possession this fall, additional income from rentals currently leasing, more square footage, and additional land available for a possible second water tower. Mr. March indicated that 3 the next steps would include contacting the attorney and pursuing a purchase agreement with Willie Lessard. 2. COMPUTER SYSTEM Councilmember Sweeney gave a brief overview based on a conversation that he had with City Clerk Ry -Chel Gaustad. Councilmember Sweeney stated that there have been some bids that have come in and if the City is looking at purchasing a full network system, we would be looking at over $20,000. A full network system includes a main central computer with satellite computers hooked up to it. Since the City Hall office is small, this idea was dropped. Another bid looked at and suggested that all the computers be upgraded. This bid was submitted by Amacomp Inc., but Councilmember Sweeney felt that because of the limitations involved with upgrading the systems, the City would be better off purchasing new PC's. Mr. Sweeney continued, stating that for about $7,000 - $10,000 the City could get new PC's which would guarantee Y2K compatibility. The City would be looking at purchasing four new systems that would be networked together, pier to pier. The systems should include Windows 98 and the purchase of a network card for the system currently used by Mr. March. This sort of system would enable public works to tap into the network. The purchase would also include a laptop that could be run in the Council Chambers for any meetings or sessions. The laptop could also be used for meetings that are held in different locations. The software issue was also addressed and Councilmember Sweeney clarified that whatever software program the City purchases, some training will need to be scheduled. Councilmember Sweeney stated that he would be willing to set up templates and newsletters etc. for the City. Councilmember Sweeney recommended that the City purchase the Word Perfect Suite and the Corel Drawing Suite. Councihnember Sweeney also suggested that if we ran cable into the City Hall for internet access that we would not need to have additional phone lines, although each computer would need to have a modem. Mr. March stated that since the cost of the purchase would be less then $25,000 it would not have to go out for bids. Councilmember Nelson stated that her experience with Amacomp is that they have gotten her hardware at a lesser cost then CompUSA, Circuit City or Best Buy. Mr. March questioned if we need to create some specifications to get somebody else to bid on something similar to what Amacomp bid on. Councilmember Sweeney questioned the budget available. Mr. March stated that money was available for at least the pier to pier. In conclusion, it was determined that Udo Wegmann of Amacomp would be asked to give the City a quote on the cabling and the hook -up. 3. NEWSLETTER Councilmember Nelson stated that she received an e -mail from Shelly LaBarre of 7261 Mill Road. Ms. LaBarre's e-mail indicated that while viewing the City Council meeting on cable Last week, the sound quality was so poor, it was unviewable. She also mentioned that in the year that she has lived in Centerville, she has never received a newsletter. Ms. LaBarre suggested a monthly newsletter and also suggested placing copies of the monthly newsletter at local businesses. 4 This issue was discussed in great detail. It was decided that a large, quarterly newsletter would continue to be mailed out, supplemented by a smaller monthly newsletter that would be available for residents to "pick up" at the Centerville City Hall as well as at local businesses. Possible Newsletter "pick -up" locations are: Tom Thumb, Corner Express, and Amoco. The "pick up" process would save on postage as well as time spent on folding as required by the postal system. Councilmember Nelson suggested that Ms. Gaustad contact the local businesses to see if they would be willing to help in the distribution of the newsletters. After the new software is in place, the newsletters should be easier to write. A program can be developed in which the newsletter format is set up. At this point, somebody would just need to fill in the blanks. Councilmember Brenner questioned where we get the information for the monthly newsletter. Mr. March stated that it takes a lot of time for just one person to write the newsletter. Mr. March suggested that we invite several people to write articles on current event issues. Councilmember Nelson commented that the newsletters should focus on recent meetings, regular scheduled meetings, and extra meetings/workshops_ Councilmember Sweeney added that maybe they could just pull together the highlights. This would allow residents to know what is going on and to be informed on things that are coming up. Councilmember Brenner stated that in prior years the newsletter included a "Council Corner ", which highlighted the events from current City Council meetings. In addition to the newsletter, it was also mentioned that communication with the residents per the cable channel is not yet functioning. Mr. March stated that the City is waiting for a response from a letter sent to the cable company in regards to training issues. Training was included in the price of the system and up to this point has not been offered. As soon as training becomes available, Staff will be trained in on how to use the software. The cable channel should also include current events information and meeting highlights. Mr March also mentioned that some websites of larger cities also include minutes from all committee meetings on -line. This could be a possibility in the fixture. 4. TRI - CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT FUNDING FORMULA Mayor Wilharber began the discussion stating that for about the last sixteen months we have been working with the City of Circle Pines and the City of Lexington in reference to funding a tri-city police department. Mr. March passed out copies of a funding formula, which weighs the different factors involved. Mr. March explained he favored the ideas of using a formula currently used by the IACP (International Association of Chief of Police). This is a nationally accepted formula. One thing that is going to happen is that Circle Pines is going to allow Lexington to phase in to the formula over a five year basis. By the year 2002 each City will be paying their fair share based on population, number of calls, and other formula factors. Councilmember Nelson questioned how the formula rate 5 compared to what we are currently paying. Mr. March responded that there is less than a $10,000 difference. Mayor Wilharber mentioned the determination of assets is one of the factors. He stated that the value of the assests is a concern and that the next tri-city meeting will be here on March 30, 1999 at 7:00. Mr. March stated that the council will have to have come to a consensus for Tuesday's meeting. This item will be discussed at the regular scheduled City Council meeting on March 24, 1999. 5. OPEN MEETING LAW Tabled until next workshop to be scheduled on April 7, 1999 at 6:00. Although there are no current issues, Councilmember Nelson would like to address the Open Meeting Law for future reference. 6. CONFLICT OF INTEREST Tabled until next workshop to be scheduled on April 7, 1999 at 6:00. Although there are no current issues, Councilmember Nelson would like to address Conflict of Interest for future reference. 7. UNIFORM HOUSING CODE (UHC) The UHC was adopted a few months ago, there are some residents properties that could be used for testing out the UHC. Mr. March stated that staff needs to know the level of enforcement that the Council wants staff to pursue. After a long and detailed discussion the Council agreed to check with other cities that currently use the UHC to establish a "Board of Appeals ". The Council also agreed that a policy should be established for staff to follow, complaints should be investigated and ordinances should be enforced. The UHC will be an agenda item for the regular scheduled meeting on March 24, 1999. Mr. Bill LaLonde of 1687 Westview Street was present and voiced an ongoing complaint about a neighbor that resides on the corner of Centerville Road and Westview Street. This property will be investigated after the UHC Board of Appeals is determined and staff procedures are developed. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: Ordinance #4 Mr. March stated that Dean Johnson would like to meet with the City Council on April 14, 1999 at 5:00 p.m. This workshop would take place before the regular scheduled City Council meeting at 6:00 p.m. The Planning and Zoning Committee will be invited to attend this workshop, since Mr. Johnson is not able to attend the April Planning and 6 Zoning meeting. The purpose for this workshop will be to give input to the re- writing of Ordinance #4. Mr. March added that once this is completed, it will solve a lot of our problems. Grant U do ates Mr. March gave an overview of the two Outdoor Recreation Grants that will be submitted to the DNR next week. A resolution for each grant will be on the consent agenda for the City Council meeting on March 24, 1999. The Acorn Creek estimated project cost is $91,640. We are asking for a grant in the amount of $45,820. We are also proposing a local match to come from park dedication funds. For the Acorn Creek park project, we will have about $10,800 of sweat equity from the residents that have volunteered to install the playground equipment. Councilmember Theresa Brenner recommended that a summary of the grant be included in the newsletter. Councilmember Brenner and Councilmember Sweeney agreed that the cover page of the grant, (photo of the City sign with children from the city surrounding the sign) should be on the cover of our newsletter. Councilmember Sweeney stated that if the picture was printed on an ink jet printer, it would produce a clearer picture. The Council supported the Acorn Creek Park grant application as well as the Laurie LaMotte Park grant application.

Meeting adjourned at 8:30 Respectfully Submitted, Ry -Chel Gaustad CMC / City Clerk RDG /alf 7 NOT APPROVED CITY OF CENTERVILLE PARK AND RECREATION COMMITTEE March 3, 1999 Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, the Park and Recreation Committee of the City of Centerville held their regularly scheduled meeting on March 3, 1999 at City Hall, 1880 Main Street. Chairperson Michael Navin called the meeting to order at 6:35 p.m. Present: Chairperson Michael Navin Don Bahneman Dale Larson Terry Sweeney Absent: Steve Brown Doug Porter Staff: Jill Lien James Bownik ROLL CALL Michael Navin opened up the Public Hearing by requesting James Bownik, City Intern to give a brief summary of the two (2) grants offered by the DNR. The City is applying for two of the same grants one to be used at the Acorn Creek Park and one to be used at the LaMotte Park. Mr. Bownik explained they are a 50% matching grant - each in the amount of $50,000.00. The City would contribute $50,000.00 and with the match of $50,000.00, there would be approximately $100,000.00 for each park. The money could be used for City park improvements such as: playground equipment, picnic shelters, concession stand, soccer fields, benches, trash receptacles, lights, BBQ stands etc., at both parks. Michael Navin mentioned receipt of a packet of information submitted by the Centerville Neighborhood Network Committee which included surveys taken the week of February 20th. The results of the surveys are in the form of graphs and charts indicating what the neighboring residents would like to see in the park, the name of the park, other statistical information and letters of support. Aimee Fairbrother (1844 Revoir Street) stressed her and the neighborhoods concerns about what was mentioned at the last Park and Recreation meeting about the vision of Acorn Creek Park being geared more towards adults. Ms. Fairbrother mentioned how the City is very focused on youth and a possible youth center in the City. She went on further to explain that the Neighborhood Network Conunittee went to 76 homes in the immediate area surrounding Acorn Creek Park. Out of the 76 homes, 63 were available for comment. The survey included the number of children per household which totaled 114. Aimee went on further to explain the neighborhood (63 %) wanted the park to be named Acorn Creek Park. Jeff Gibbons (7203 Clear Ridge) questioned the open space - he felt Acorn Creek Park is a very large park. Loren Abrahamson (1868 Revoir) questioned what the average size park is and what is normal in a park the size of Acorn Creek? Intern James Bownik suggested that the City could choose to have the City Engineer do a survey of the park. Michael Navin felt the Tracey McBride Park is about half the size of the Acorn Creek Park. Mr. Navin stressed the Park and Recreation Committee needs to consider what the City has in mind as far as athletics. Tom Fairbrother (1844 Revoir Street) questioned parking, and if it would be required to have designated parking. James Bownik felt it would be required to have a minimum of handicap parking / off street parking versus no parking. Dale Larson stated the Park and Recreation Committee is trying to gear the City parks to all residents of Centerville. Mr. Larson listed several parks and their amenities, adding it would be nice to have a park for adults and family reunions, etc. Not that the adults using the parks will be hobbling around with canes - we could still have playground equipment for the children. Tom Fairbrother (1844 Revoir Street) stated that the adults have the ability to drive to any park they choose to go to. The children aren't able to drive to other parks like the adults are, and that no matter what goes into the Acorn Creek Park, the children of the area will be there - no matter what. Adding, the other "proposed" park by the lake could be designed more for adults - it would be a perfect spot for adults and reunions, etc.. Jill Lien (1810 Hayfield Road) questioned why the Acorn Creek Park cannot be designed for both adults and children. Adding, if adults use the park for reunions, then their grandchildren will be using the playground equipment. This park is large enough to serve all ages. Why does it have to be one or the other? 2 Monica Travis (7335 Brian Drive) was in agreement with Ms. Lien. Adding, there are 20 acres north of Acorn Creek that are being developed - this will bring more kids. Monica felt this park should be designed for kids and adults to use. Monica questioned if there would be additional traffic and where parking would be. Adding, there is a proposed trail and perhaps parking could be at a different location. She questioned if grant funds could be used to secure a parking lot. Dale Larson thought parking was planned all along at the Acorn Creek Park. There are currently three (3) parking spaces at Acorn Creek Park. Loren Abrahamson (1868 Revoir Street) added that his idea of a neighborhood park is defined as a park for neighborhood use - consisting of some adult fixtures and play equipment for children. Dan Nelson (1828 Revoir Street) questioned if there would be another park north of Acorn Creek Park, and the amenities that will offer. Michael Navin mentioned the City is to keep in mind that with the new developments coming into town, the police department wishes to have access to the parks. Jeff Gibbons (7203 Clear Ridge) questioned if the City will have leverage to get access to the parks in the future. Michael Navin stated that this is the perfect opportunity for citizen involvement in the future. Adding that new developments have to go before City Council. The City Council takes into consideration what is best for the City, i.e.: land for parks or money. At this time, it is premature to assume what the City will get - land or money - when the next development comes to town. Dale Larson felt, in looking through the information submitted by the Neighborhood Network Committee, that what the neighborhood wants would also be suitable for adults. Michael Navin questioned the survey taken by the Neighborhood Network Committee. Specifically, asking which of the items on the survey are mandatory? Is a basketball court something the residents really want to see? Adding, bouncing balls are very loud, and is this something that fits into what the City wants? Lori Dorn (1836 Revoir Street) added that basketball courts may bring more adults into the park area. Tom Fairbrother (1844 Revoir Street) stated the most difficult thing for the Neighborhood Network Committee is not knowing how much money the City has to work with as far as developing parks. 3 Dale Larson questioned if the basketball court would be a full court or half court. Also, Mr. Larson questioned the gazebo versus a pavilion or shelter. Lori Dorn (1836 Revoir Street) stated the Neighborhood Network Committee was trying to follow through with the Design Team flow. Don Bahneman was in agreement that Acorn Creek Park should be an adult park - not just geared for athletics and young children. Aimee Fairbrother (1844 Revoir Street) mentioned the park has three (3) acres of land, and that there should be plenty of room to do everything as long as the Park and Recreation Committee take the Neighborhood Network Committee seriously. James Bownik stated that the next step would be to put an application together and submit it for a DNR grant. James thanked Aimee Fairbrother for her efforts. Adding that the City would have a great chance for both of the grants. The deadline is March 31, 1999. If the City doesn't receive the grants, it can resubmit them again next year. Michael Navin questioned the amount of the grants again. James Bownik reiterated that they are $50,000.00 each with the City matching $50,000.00 for each park. Michael added that the City would need a list of items for the park showing the total cost. Also, Michael questioned if someone from the Neighborhood Network Committee would be willing to meet with the Park and Recreation Committee, Terry Sweeney (council liaison) concured with Mr. Navin regarding the attandance of a Neighborhood Nework liaison meeting with the Park and Recreation Committee. Tom Fairbrother (1844 Revoir Street) questioned who designs the equipment for the parks. Mr. Fairbrother also questioned whether the City would have one person or several design the parks? Michael Navin explained that the Park and Recreation Committee designs the park layout and the playground equipment is brought in by vendors. Dale Larson mentioned that the structures were already designed and brought in, while residents dug the holes and put them in. Aimee Fairbrother (1844 Revoir Street) stated that she has been gathering information from several vendors. Ms. Fairbrother has the name of the vendor used by the City of Lino Lakes. She stated that they are a fantastic company and they do it all. Dale Larson suggested letting the Neighborhood Network Committee design the Acorn Creek Park and submit it to the Park and Recreation Committee. Michael Navin questioned who was notified, and if anybody can be on the Neighborhood Network Committee? 4 Aimee Fairbrother (1844 Revoir Street) stated that all residents within 350 feet were included in the survey and that is how the residents were notified - by word of mouth. Jeff Gibbons (7203 Clear Ridge) felt it was very helpful having the Neighborhood Network Committee. He cautioned the City though - he felt if the City let local residents design the park, that the residents should have experienced guidelines, taking into consideration the ultimate development, future trails and the comprehensive plan. Michael Navin questioned if the comprehensive plan was taken into consideration. Aimee Fairbrother replied: "Yes, the comprehensive plan was looked at." Dale Larson requested that the Neighborhood Network Committee submit a "thumb sketch" of their vision of Acorn Creek. Terry Sweeney agreed with Mr. Larson, adding that the Neighborhood Network Committee should submit a concept plan to Ms. Lien who will then forward it on to the appropriate people of the Park and Recreation Committee and Administrator, Jim March. Michael Navin motioned to close the Public Hearing noting that the Neighborhood Network Committee submit a concept plan. Park and Recreation will need to be advised of its direction - without knowing budget amounts. Terry Sweeney felt that if the grant was for $50,000.00 and the City matches $50,000.00 then the Neighborhood Network Committee and Park and Recreation Committee should use $100,000.00 as a benchmark. Jeff Gibbons (7203 Clear Ridge) commented that there may be additional grants secured at a later date. Adding, once you come up with a plan, you can strategize getting funds from other sources. James Bownik agreed, come up with a plan, submit it, and wait to see what the DNR is willing to fund. Lori Dorn (1836 Revoir Street) questioned what happened to the money the developer gave for Acorn Creek. Michael Navin explained the developer for Acorn Creek gave land, not cash for this development. Adding, we still have $25,000.00 in park dedication fees from the Buechler Development in the Park and Recreation account. Michael Navin suggested Park and Recreation give the Neighborhood Network Committee a deadline of two (2) weeks - March 17, 1999, to submit their concept plan for Acorn Creek Park. Mr. Navin added the City will need to have a professional look at the 5 plan. Also, noting that what the City puts in for a grant will not dictate what goes into the park. Park and Recreation will submit the plans to the City Engineer. Jeff Gibbons (7203 Clear Ridge) recommended writing a narrative explaining why the Neighborhood Network Committee put things where they did and the logic behind the concept. Dale Larson added that Mr. March will be explaining why the City wants things where it does. A narrative will help him "flower it up ". Michael Navin motioned to close the Public Hearing for Acorn Creek Park, further questioning if anyone had anything to say about LaMotte Park. Mr. Navin explained LaMotte Park is approximately 15 acres. The City is pursuing a Trail Linkage. Grant offered by the DNR in the amount of $31,800. Jeff Gibbons (7203 Clear Ridge) commented that he is very interested in the Trail Linkage Grant. Adding, Wayne LeBlanc who is very involved in the sub - committees of the Design Team wants to submit a letter to the DNR supporting the grant. Michael Navin ended the Public Hearing on a positive note .... "Our mission is to be the good stewards of the land." CONSIDERATION OF MINUTES A.

Jeff Gibbons (7203 Clear Ridge) questioned plans that had been submitted years ago by Carol Pelton, and if there was resistance from the Park and Recreation Committee to use those plans. Were any of her plans adopted? Mr. Gibbons also suggested that the City check with the designer responsible for Rice Creek and the Anoka County Park System to see if the City could get a look at any drawings available. Michael Navin explained that none of Carol Pelton's plans had been adopted; however, the City has used a lot of her ideas. NEW BUSINESS Michael Navin mentioned receipt of a Letter from the Chain of Lakes Little League requesting a contract be signed by the City. Michael explained that the Chain of Lakes Little League wants to help develop LaMotte Park, but would like some type of guarantee that they will be able to use the park in return. Adding, we have already approved the Chain of Lakes Little League's use of the field, we are just finalizing it on paper. Terry Sweeney commented that the Chain of Lakes Little League wants a place they can count on using. Lino Lakes doesn't have much for the Little League. The Little League is willing to purchase and donate equipment for the City to use at the park - including lights. The Little League is looking for field use primarily during the week.
