FROM: John K. Anderson, City Admin.
RE : Non-Agenda Informational Items .
DATE: August 30, 1984
1 ] Good newsi The Judge has granted the City of Shakopee
summary judgment in the Bill Chard Eastview case and the
City is now out of this lawsuit unless Mr. Chard appeals
in the next 90 days . The contractor and Engineering Firm
drawn into the lawsuit did not receive summary judgment ,
therefore, some City Officials still may be testifying in
the case .
2 ] City staff met with Hardrives ' staff regarding the 10th
Avenue resurfacing project . All parties agreed that the
City would wait until the Dakota County lawsuit regarding
the same batch of blacktop was heard on September 14th.
The significance of waiting is that the corrections to
10th Avenue will not then occur until 1985 . The City' s
strategy is to wait for the Dakota County hearing because
it will cut down on the City' s Court cost should Dakota
County prevail . If you have questions regarding this
strategy, please bring the issue up at Tuesday' s Council
meeting.
3 ] Staff has two suggestions regarding Council procedures now
that we are on cable T.V. ; ( 1 ) Staff suggests that Council-
members actually read the staff recommendations so the
listening public can catch the motion. Councilmembers can
simply say "I move staff recommendation" and then literally
read the recommendation; ( 2 ) Staff suggests we add one item
to our voting procedures for appointing citizens to Boards
and Commissions , namely, a tabulation of the paper ballots
on the blackboard so that the viewing audience can see how
the votes were cast . Please contact Judy Cox if you have a
problem with either one of these procedures before Tuesday' s
meeting.
4] The City has been contacted by Don Hamilton on behalf of the
VFW and American Legion. Don would like to have the City
begin putting the small American Flags in the light poles
for Holidays rather than these two organizations . Lou VanHout
and I have said that we cannot handle this for this upcoming
Labor Day weekend and that it is an issue that will have to
be discussed because we have no idea of the scope of the work
involved.
5] Attached is a copy of a memo from Jim Karkanen to me regarding
a complaint about the creosote smell from the Shakopee Public
Utility Pole Yard just west of our Public Works Building.

E: Minnesota Valley Electric Cooperative - Zylstra
United Pole Use Agreement
Dear Mr. Abbott_
We represent Minnesota Valley Electric Cooperative at Jordan,
Minnesota. Our client and your company executed a pole use
agreement in August, 1982 which authorized your company to
attach its cable communication facilities to Minnesota Valley
poles in the cities of Chaska and Shakopee upon certain terms
and conditions. A subsequent agreement was signed by the parties
in January, 1984 which was identical to the earlier one, except
for minor language changes and a reduced pole rental rate.
Under these agreements, your company has attached its facilities
to 168 Minnesota Valley poles in the City of Shakopee. Paragraph
5 of these agreements clearly states that your attachments shall
comply with the clearance requirements of the National Electrical
Safety Code and any further installation standards specified by
Minnesota Valley. We have been informed that as many as one-half
of your attachments fail to meet
These non-r_omp1 � the minimum Code clearances.
Ying attachments either fail to meet the minimum
clearances above the ground (14 feet or 18 feet depending upon.
location) , or they fail to meet the minimum clearances between
cable and electric lines (40 inches at the pole and 30 inches
at mid-span) . Many of your attachments wLrh_ tat"L ,� � `►rte
fipecilled ground clearances will have to be raised. Raising the
cable to the required height will in turn create another cion-
complYing situation since your cable will be less than 40 inches
below Minnesota Valley ' s electric lines. Consequently, a taller
pole will have to be installed to correct that problem. Minnesota
Valley estimates that taller poles will be needed in almost 80%
of the cases to assure Code compliance.
Because of this situation, Minnesota Valley changed out several
poles in early 1983, but your company has never raised its cable
lines to correct the non-complying attachment. Just recently,
a truck in Shakopee hit your cable at a point where it was too
close to the ground. Minnesota Valley' s poles were knocked over
which caused a power outage in the area. Someone will be seriously
Mr. J.W. Abbott -2- August 22, 1984
injured or killed the next time.
Your attachments not only violate the National Electrical Safety
Code, they also violate the existing pole use agreements . These
violations have been brought to your attention on several occasions
before.
Ron Jabs of Minnesota Valley addressed this situation in a letter
to your company dated April 21 , 1983. A follow-up letter dated
November 7, 1983 , was written to you personally by Wallace Bruning
of Minnesota Valley. Mr. Jabs wrote to you again on December 6 ,
1983. Tony Gauer of your firm advised Mr. Jabs in a letter dated
January 19, 1984 , that your lines would either be removed or buried
in certain areas. This has never been done. Minnesota Valley
also submitted a statement dated January 31, 1984 , in the amount of
$1, 601. 75 for work performed under these agreements. Despite
several rebillings , this statement remains unpaid.
Your conduct above described constitutes a serious and substantial
breach of your obligations under the agreements. Minnesota Valley
will not subject itself to liability for tolerating any longer
the numerous non-complying cable attachments to its poles . Pursuant
to Paragraph 22 of the agreements, this letter is your 10 day' s
written notice of default in the performance of your obligations.
Minnesota Valley will proceed to terminate the agreements effective
September 7, 1984, unless by that date your company has either
corrected the non-complying attachments or has presented to
Minnesota Valley for approval a schedule for corrective action
to be done immediately thereafter. Upon termination of the agree-
ment, you will remove your facilities from Minnesota Valley' s poles,
or Minnesota Valley will do it for you at your expense in accordance
with Paragraph 22.
Please contact me if you have any further questions.
Yours very trul16az

INTRODUCTION
At the July 18 , 1984 staff meeting, Department Heads
discussed the current "practice" that employees can use
certain types of City equipment . At the July 18th meeting
Department Heads discussed the pros and cons of this present
practice including whether or not there was a problem with
the present practice ,whether or not there was the possi-
bility of abuse or misuse of the equipment or whether or not
there was equity in the current program.
After considerable discussion, several. suggestions were
made which have been included in the proposed policy listed
below.

emergency basis ; and
( 3 ) Use of City equipment without charge by employees
and/or citizens .
( 1. ) Rental of Ci_ty_Equipment . All. equipment listed
in-ifie Master. Fee Resolution is available for
rental with the Department Head involved having

Mr. John K. Anderson
City Administrator
City of Shakopee
129 East First Avenue
Shakopee, Minnesota 55379
Dear John:
Please convey my thoughts about the State Highway Study Commission to
the Shakopee City Council .
First, it appears from meetings the Study Commission has had both at
the Capitol and in five outstate cities that there will likely be
little change in jurisdictional reapportionment of the state' s
current highway system.
Minor turn backs, such as state Trunk Highway 300 in Shakopee as you
indicated in a recent letter, should be processed when there is a
local jurisdictional request to do so.
Our Commission has attempted to gather as much response from affected
local governments at our meetings as possible. There is almost
unanimous support for continuation of the current ownership and
maintenance of the roads and highways in the state.
As you know, the Citizens League announced results of a study about
a year ago of the highways owned by the state and recommended that
the state should turn back almost one-half of the mileage it owns to
smaller jurisdictions. Along with that turn back would go a pro-
grjrtiai:al ao1Qi1at of highway-user funds to help rebuild and maintain
those roads. I found that many local government officials do not
trust the state to fulfill those promises of funding. We are all to
well aware of the financial crises we experienced two years ago when
the state cut back heavily on its commitments to local units of
government without consideration of the budgets of those cities,
counties and townships who depended on those allocations from the
state.
COMMITTEES • Chairman, Local and Urban Government • Rules and
Administration • Finance • Transportation • Veterans and General Legislation
2.
The Minnesota Department of Transportation, as well as the Citizens
League, agreed that no money could be saved by this suggested transfer.
Most people who testified before our Commission state that there is
reasonable satisfaction with the present system, also that there is a
real concern of local governments to take over the responsibility of
owning part of the state' s system. So then the question arises,
"Where are the benefits of the turn back proposal?"
Thank you for your letter. I will have it copied and inserted in each
members file for their consideration.
Sincerel ,

Pat Ploumen David Hart
Roman Schneider CIT`
Meeting was called to order by George Muenchow in absence of Chair Neely who is
away on business.
It was noted that the Shakopee Valley News carried a good article on the Food Shelf.
Jackie Kes reported that Scott Carver Economic Council has scheduled a fundraiser to
begin Sept 4, and run for 10 weeks. Each community would plan and run their own fund-
raising effort. An organization or several persons are needed particularly for the
Commodity Distribution, Holiday, and Self Sufficiency Projects. United Fund is not
an available resource for SCEC. The fundraiser theme is "Give Where You Live".
Dave Hart, Scott County Extension Director, presented enlightening information about
the functions of the Extension agency. Located in Jordan, the office has education
as it's basic function. Services are funded through the County, the State through the
U of M, and the Federal through U.S.D.A. Services include providing advice regarding
agricultural products, test plats, meetings and clinics about requested subject areas.
The office also provides consultation about lawn, landscaping, trees, and tree problems,
as well as nutritional and budgetary information and 4-H leadership. They receive
800-1,000 calls per month requesting information. They have available to Scott County
residents a wealth of literature and fact sheets on a great variety of topics. Dave
also discussed the Extension involvement with the County & State Fairs through the 4-H
program. They are in the process of replacing the 4-H staff person and in the interim
Dave &Kay Louis, Home Economist, have been providing those services. Dave proclaimed
the validity of the Extension office's expertise - which is born out in their advertis-
ing: "We know all the answers." (Note: Coalition members may wnat to check out this
claim! )
The next meeting will be held Thursday, August 30, 6:30-coffee, 7:00 meeting, at the
Citizens State Bank.
Meeting adjourned at 8:00 a.m.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE ENERGY AND TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE
REGULAR SESSION SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA JULY 19, 1984
Chrm. Dunwell called the meeting to order at 7:35 p.m. with members Spiotta,
Weeks and Schwingler present. Absent was member Ziegler. Also present were
Judi Simac, City Planner and Barry Stock, Transit Coordinator.
Schwingler/Spiotta moved to approve the minutes of May 3, 1.984 and June 21,
1984 as kept. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Stock stated that he and the City Admr. had the opportunity to meet with
the advertising staff from Valleyfair, and went over suggestions that had
been made, emphasizing keeping the logo simple. He showed an alternate
logo with a van showing movement, riding on the name of Shakopee Area Tran-
sit. Discussion ensued regarding the name, logo and color selection.
Schwingler/Weeks moved to accept as a logo the design with a van, showing
movement, riding on the words "Shakopee Area Transit" with SAT inside the
van, with the letters in red on a black van. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Stock gave an update on the advertising offer by Naegele Sign Co. for
free advertising space on one of their billboards. He said the company
couldn't find any space in August or September, and couldn't guarantee any
space later.
Mr. Stock checked on the billboard on the property at First and Holmes,
which is $750 per month to rent, which doesn't include the sign painting.
The billboard is rented until Sept. 15, with no guarantee of getting it after
that.
Mr. Stock also checked into a banner that could be hung over an intersection,
which should last 2 months, with printing on one side which would be $419.
That did not include the logo, which should be included. He pointed out that
in order to get the advertising up early, they wouldn't be able to put the
phone number of the carrier, which wouldn't be known until later, but
possibly the City Hall number could be used. They also might get a better
deal if they ordered two banners.
Discussion followed. The City Planner said this Committee could authorize
the expenditure for this advertisement. Mr. Stock was requested to check
on the price for printing on both sides.
Schwingler/Spiotta moved to order a two-sided banner saying "Coming Soon --
Shakopee Area Transit. For more information, call City Hall. Mr. Stock
said he would like to have it up by August 19, 1.984. Motion carried unani-
mously.
Mr. Stock said he will meet with Ray Olson of MnDOT next week regarding the
van pool RFP specifications. He asked if there would be a quorum for an
August 1, 1984 meeting to approve the specs. Dunwell and Spiotta will not
be present. The City Planner will check with member Ziegler. Mr. Stock
said they would like to approve the Dial-A-Ride contract at that time. Mr.
Stock commented that it would be nice to have the same provider for the van
pool and the Dial-A-Ride, but it might be separate providers.

- July 19, 1984
Page 2
Mr. Stock went over the schedule of important dates. He said the press
conference has been moved to August 27, so that both the van pool and Dial-
A-Ride contracts will be awarded.
Mr. Stock said he is concerned about getting enough drivers for the van pool,
and is considering soliciting drivers by letter to the bus riders, asking
them to get in touch with him. He needs to know the drivers' final desti-
nation, and then will work the route back from there. The City Planner
asked about putting information in the utility bills. Mr. Stock will check
on it. Chrm. Dunwell and member Schwingler said they think all the riders
are aware of the coming change. The City Planner said the blinking sign
at the lst National Bank is obligated to carry community service messages,
so the transit system can be advertised on it. Member Weeks volunteered
to put information in the bank statements from Citizens State Bank. There
was a suggestion to get advertising in the Mint.
Mr. Stock said he has a list of parking lots downtown that will accept vans.
Chrm. Dunwell suggested contacting some of the lots or ramps that don't
regularly take vans, which might in this circumstance.
Discussion ensued regarding routes around town for the van pool. Mr. Stock
said it would really speed up the process if the vans only stopped at a few
"Park and Ride" lots, rather than attempting to pick up people at their homes.
Member Schwingler said she doesn't think people expect door-to-door service.
Mr. Stock said he is trying to compile a list of lots around town that could
be used, such as churches, elementary schools and the mall, and he hopes to
have 10 lots.
Discussion followed on serving the occasional rider, perhaps with vans keep-
ing one seat open at all times. The van to the U of M would also have some
different schedules because of classes and breaks.
The City Planner informed the members that the City is adding a new position
which will be half time transit coordinator, and half time cable staff person.
The position will begin in September or October.
The City Planner explained some of the Community Energy Council Grants. She
made a few suggestions for projects, such as a recycling program, auto
emissions, propane expansion and home weatherization. The consensus was
there is interest in it, and it should be looked into further as information
becomes available. She asked for other ideas.
Member Spiotta reported on the school board meeting she attended where trans-
portation for students was a topic. She was impressed that the School Board
mentioned the new transit system as a possibility for transportation. She
didn't know if it was anything the system wanted or was able to get involved
with, but at least another group of people are aware of this committee's work.
Discussion followed with consensus being to not get involved at this time.
Member Weeks said when he attended the Open House for the Front Steps, they
were very interested in the Dial-A-Ride.
Schwingler/Weeks moved to adjourn. Motion carried unanimously. Meeting
adjourned at 8:50 p.m.

INDUSTRY DAY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Gary Eastlund said there is a definite possibility of having Industry
Day, 1984 at the Racetrack, which plans to open June 29, 1984. He would
suggest a day as soon after the opening as possible, with possibly a
tour and drinks and refreshments with the possibility of the guests
attending the race after the presentation. He will check on a date that
would be feasible for the Racetrack, around July 10, and get it on their
calendar as soon as possible to confirm it. A review was made of the
budget from the last Industry Day. Paul Wermerskirchen said there is
no money in the budget because nothing was planned for this year. Gary
Eastlund said the slides for the downtown area have been expanded for
the slide presentation.
REALTORS DAY
Jane DuBois discussed the workshop planned for September 12, 1984 at the
KC Hall. She said the hall rental is $25 and $20 has been allotted for
coffee aad rolls. She emphasized the purpose is to establish a better
working relationship between realtors in the City'ana rale`arca
and County staff. There will be a panel of 5 people to field questions
from the audience and some that will be worked on prior to the meeting, to
get it started. She hoped this would be a productive meeting and not put
anyone on the spot.
John Manahan arrived and took his seat at 5:32 p.m.
Jane Do-is said they are expecting between 50-75 people. They will be meet-
ing again on August 15 with the Community Development Director and City
Planner, to draw up a list of invitees. She discussed further various
areas of concern that will be addressed by staff, such as processes for
securing building permits, platting and re-zoning for expansion, new per-
formance standards, changes in zoning made primarily because of the Race-
track, streamlining special assessment requests, long term sewer and water
plans, zoning along the by-pass, development possibilities in Jackson Town-
ship and what role the City should play in making decisions affecting pri-
vate enterprise systems, such as condos and splits.

Ms. DuBois said she would like this to become an annual meeting, so lines

MINUTES
Manahan/DuBois moved to approve the minutes of July 11, 1984. Motion
carried unanimously.
AD HOC COMMITTEE OF MORATORIUM (PERFORMANCE STANDARDS WORKSHOP)
Gary Eastlund reported that John Shardlow of Howard Dahlgren & Associates
left out of his report a lot of items that were covered in the workshop
and agreed to. He gave further background on several items.
Manahan/DuBois moved that although the ICC was not formally asked to com-
ment on the Shakopee Area Racetrack Planning and Zoning Study, dated
August 13, 1984, by Howard Dahlgren Associates, Inc., the ICC has had an
opportunity to quickly review its contents and would recommend that the
study by amended to include the following recommendations, which were
agreed upon at the time of the workshop; namely:
1. In addition to the Code amendments as outlined by the August 3, 1984
memo franJudi Simac, City Planner, to include the following amendments:
A. Delete Sec. 11.32, Subd. 3 of the August 3, 1984 memo
which says "Remove assembly, storage of tobacco pro-
ducts as a conditional use."
B. Add Sec. 11.32, Subd. 3, animal hospital and veterinary
clinics as a conditional use.
C. Add under Sec. 11.33, Subd. 2, amusement parks as a per-
mitted use.
2. Language to be added, reference the August 7, 1984 memo from Judi
Simac, City Planner, to the Planning Commission, under the Landscape
Requirements, that one tree every 50 feet would be a requirement for all
future and existing buildings, with a two year time period for compliance
for existing buildings. This to be added to page 17 and 18 of August
13, 1984 report.
3. In the same report, page 17, under Setback to Parking, add language
to read: In all Multiple Residential, Business (except within the B-3
District) and Industrial Districts, a minimum 15 foot setback shall be
required to any impervious surface which occurs within the front yard area,
except for property platted prior to the adoption of this Code. The area
within this setback shall be landscaped.
Motion carried unanimously.
FINANCIAL BACKING ENCOURAGEMENT FOR FIRST TIME HOME BUYERS
General consensus is that there isn't enough land available in Shakopee
for big blocks of development with opportunities for builders to buy big
blocks of money at a lower rate for first-time home buyers. The land in
Shakopee is tied up or scattered. Ms. DuBois said builders have not asked
to build on smaller lots because the land is not available, the Code does
not allow it, and it seems to be too much trouble to change it.

Dear Downtown Businesses and Property Owners :
As you are aware, the Downtown Committee has put forth a
Downtown Revitalization proposal which is now under consideration
by the City Council. Notices were previously sent out and public
meetings held on June 26th and July 31st to discuss this plan. At
those meetings, concerns were raised about the proposal and how it
affects those who own businesses and property in the downtown. To
address the issues raised to date, we have prepared the enclosed
"Question and Answer" hand-out to give you in a brief form the
most significant issues in the full report, which is over 100 pages
in length. Please read through the information and call members of
the Downtown Committee if you need further clarification on any
issue.
The City Council plans to take action on the concept plan on
Tuesday, September 11, 1984 . The actions they could take include
approval, approval with modifications or rejection of the concept
plan.
Approval action on the concept plan would not directly order
any element of the project, but would serve as direction to the
Downtown Committee and City staff to work with potential developers,
the Minnesota Department of Transportation, and property owners to
package projects which implement the plan in an orderly and fiscally
sound manner. These projects would then need further Council action
to be able to proceed.
We hope you have kept up with the proposals to improve the
downtown and support the efforts taken to date. You are welcome
to attend the Council meeting on September 11th, which will begin
at 8 : 00 P.M. and be held in the Community Room of the First National
Bank (enter from the parking lot, southeast corner of the building) .
Sincerely,

PROCEEDINGS OF THE ENERGY AND TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE
SPECIAL SESSION SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA AUGUST 1, 1984
Vice-Chair Weeks called the meeting to order at 7_. 35 p.m. with members
Ziegler and Schwingler present. Absent were members Spiotta and Dunwell.
Also present was Barry Stock, Transit Coordinator.
The Transit Coordinator read the background contained in the memo regard-
ing the bid opening for the Dial-A-Ride system, addressing the confusion
caused by none of the bidders specifying what the back-up vehicle would
be. Discussion ensued regarding the acceptability of a van or mini-bus
as a back-up, and the anticipated need for a back-up.
Ziegler/Schwingler moved that a van would be acceptable as a back-up
vehicle for the Dial-A-Ride system.
Vice-Chair Weeks asked if there were any comments from the audience.
Jim Johnson, of Medicine Lake Lines, asked if the Committee had taken into
account possible increase in demand because of the Racetrack. He pointed
out their proposal is using two 25-passenger vehicles, which might be a
more realistic demand. He also suggested alternatives to a performance
bond which would provide more incentive. He declared that if reliable
service is not present in the first six months, the problems will be there
for a long time. He emphasized that their vehicles are in service right
now and they have the capability of getting on line immediately. He said
their main problem is the 18 month contract length. On a re-bid for a
longer period, they could do better. He said the bid reflects this large
capital investment. He suggested an alternative of sharing vehicles with
the program in Plymouth for use during the day. If this alternative was
used, the bid could be more competitive.
Motion carried unanimously.
The Transit Coordinator went over the bid submitted by Transportation
Management, Inc. He said they are a part of the Yellow Cab company, and
plan to acquire two Champion buses for this program. They worked on Project
Mobility. They were mostly interested in Option No. 2, because they have a
24 hour dispatcher at the airport. They would still provide us with a
Shakopee phone number.
The Transit Coordinator said Morley Bus Co. is in White Bear, doing the
exact same type of transit service. They were also working with Metro
Mobility, and provide medical assistance in the 7 county metro area. They
also have contracts with many school districts throughout the state.
The representative from Van Pool Services said they are under contract with
MnDOT and are the sole provider for the Minnesota Rideshare Program, which
began in 1980. Member Ziegler commented on. the detailed proposal submitted
by Van Pool Services.

Schwingler/Ziegler moved to recommend to City Council to award the Dial-
A-Ride contract to Van Pool Services, Inc. Motion carried unanimously.
The Transit Coordinator said when City Council approves the specs for the
Van Pool system, they will be mailed to the same persons who requested
them earlier. He went through various features of the Request for Pro-
posals. He said the submission date for the RFP is August 24, 1984.
Schwingler/Ziegler moved to recommend to City Council to approve the Van
Pool Request for Proposal Specifications. Motion carried unanimously.
The Transit Coordinator addressed several policy decisions lie thought might
have to be made by this Committee regarding the Van Pool. He hopes the
van pools will be autonomous.
Member Schwingler said it is her belief that smoking should not be allowed
on the vans, because: 1)courtesy to those who do not smoke; 2) smoking is
not allowed now on the MTC buses; and 3) it would be more of a burden for
the drivers to have to clean up.
Member Ziegler thought there should be some guidelines for some type of
appeal process for a passenger who is not satisfied by some action taken
by the van pool drivers or passengers.
Brief discussion followed on the issues enumerated in the memo from the
Transit Coordinator, dated July 26, 1984, as follows:
Issue No. l: Member Schwingler said there are 2-4 riders from Jordan who
drive to Shakopee to catch the bus, but she didn't think anyone would be
picked up past the "Y".
Issue No. 2: Member Schwingler was concerned about the extra bookkeeping
involved for the driver, along with hard feelings. Member Weeks wondered
about an ethical obligation to serve those who were served before by MTC
at no additional charge. The Transit Coordinator thought there could be
a perception that out-of-towners were using Shakopee's Opt Out money, such
as if someone from Prior Lake drives over to ride the U of M van.
Issue No. 3: General consensus with recommendation of reserving two
empty seats on each van pool for occasional rider.
Schwingler/Ziegler moved to table discussion of van pool policy questions
until the next meeting. Motion carried unanimously.
Ziegler/Schwingle moved to change the regularly scheduled meeting of August
16, 1984 to August 30, 1984. Motion carried unanimously.
The Transit Coordinator said the members of this Committee might want to be
present at the August 23, 1984 Van Pool organization meeting, for PR.
The Transit Coordinator pointed out changes in the Question and Answer sheet
for Van Pool drivers.
The Transit Coordinator said the Shakopee Area Transit logo is now registered.
Ziegler/Schwingler moved to adjourn. Motion carried unanimously. Meeting
adjourned at 9: 21 p.m.

MEMO TO: Shakopee Industrial Commercial Commission
FROM: Judi Simac, City Planner
RE: Proposed Performance Standards Amendments
DATE: August 28, 1984
Introduction:
At their August 21, 1984 meeting, the City Council requested
the ICC to act as a forum for continued discussion of the proposed
code amendments to increase performance standards .
Background:
The new performance standards which were previously reviewed
by the ICC were recommended to the City Council for adaption by
the Planning Commission. There were some individuals at the
Council meeting who had some concerns with specific items. These
include the following:
1. Commercial recreation as a conditional use in the I-2
district.
2 . Acceptable building materials
3 . Required setback to parking
w--- .rle—s_ir-P -for these items to be further discussed
in a forum that wasn't as formal as the City Council meeting. The
alterntives were Planning Commission or ICC. Therefore the role of
the ICC is to act as a "sounding board" for the concerned parties
and perhaps propose some alternatives . As a result of the discussion,
the ICC may want to submit to City Council the same recommendations
that they had made to the Planning Commission, or revise their recom-
mendation.
Action Requested:
Conduct a discussion forum regarding the 3 specific performance
standards which are of concern and recommend to City Council how
these items should be addressed.
*Note - Staff would like to thank the ICC members for agreeing
to change the monthly meeting date to accommodate the
Council ' s request.

MEMO TO: Shakopee Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA)
FROM: Jeanne Andre , Executive Director
RE: Commercial Rehabilitation Loan Write-down
DATE: August 31 , 1984
Introduction:
The HRA has been discussing policy issues related to its commer-
cial rehabilitation loan write-down program. The issue was
tabled on August 7 , 1984 , to undertake further_ research, which
has now been done .
Background :
The major issue under discussion is whether the HRA should
consider a loan write-down application for Family Chow Mein even
though the work had already been undertaken and the current criteria
of the HRA interest write-down program requires approval prior
to undertaking the work.
Commissioner Lebens inquired whether the criteria in question is
locally established, or whether it is required by state statutes .
I consulted attorney Arlin Waelti of O' Conner Hannan and she
confirmed that the criteria requiring consideration and approval
of applications for loan write-down is a requirement of the
legislation which permits the HRA to offer this program. She
indicated that the loans are supposed to meet the "but for"
criteria, that they would not have occurred but for the write-
down. Once the loan has been closed and the work undertaken,
this is clearly not the case .
Therefore , in compliance with state law, the HRA has no choice
but to deny the request of Family Chow Mein to apply for assis-
tance after the work has been completed.
Requested Action:
Deny the request of Family Chow Mein to apply for an interest
write-down for their rehabilitation loan after the work has
been completed, and direct the staff to inform Mr. and Mrs .
Poon of this action.

RACETRACK PLANNING & ZONING STUDY RECOMMENDATIONS
John Shardlow, Consulting Planner, gave a presentation with slides of the
areas reviewed with regard to the Racetrack. Consensus for a time period
for compliance for existing buildings to the landscape requirements was
3 years to show indications of compliance, and 5 years for compliance.
Mr. Shardlow continued with a slide presentation with regard to re -zoning
requests. He reviwed the B-2 Zoning specifications, natural conditions on
site, infra -structure around the storm sewer and utilities and prepared
alternatives for land use. He advised looking at the whole comp plan,
keeping in mind that any zoning changes have comprehensive effects on the
whole community. It is his belief that there is far more commercial land
in the community than there is demand to support it. His conclusion is
the best use of much of that land would be for planned residential with
underlying R-4, which would have enough intensity to off -set the cost of
developing in the bedrock present. A large planned development would be
best because the grading is very important with this depth of bedrock, so
that one parcel developing does not make it more expensive to develop the
next parcel. The slide presentation continued showing existing land uses
in the surrounding area.

Mr. Shardlow went over the three alternatives for land uses in this area,
involving a combination of commercial B-1 and residential R-4.
Schmitt/Stoltzman moved to recommend to City Council final approval of
the Shakopee Racetrack Area Planning and Zoning Study, dated August 13,
1984. Motion carried with Comm. Koehnen abstaining because of her ab-
sence during much of the discussions and presentations.
Schmitt/Czaja moved to open the 7:30 p.m. public hearing considering
the amendment of the City Code Sections 11.29 through Sections 11.33 and
Chapter 11. Motion carried unanimously.
Chrm. Perusich asked for comments from the audience.
Gary Eastlund, representing the ICC, stated the ICC recommends leaving in
Section 11.32, Subd. 3 regarding tobacco products, as there is no good
reason to remove it. Discussion followed. Consensus was to agree with
ICC recommendation.
Section 11.33, Subd. 2 & 3: Comm. Schmitt said he would not like to see
amusement parks as a permitted use, because then there could be more in
the middle of the industrial zone. He would like to see the controls
of a conditional use. Mr. Eastlund said Valleyfair will be applying for
60 building permits, which means 60 conditional use hearings, which would
be a burden for them.
The City Planner said she would like to receive from Valleyfair an over-
all site plan to help them to locate new buildings. She suggested a review
on a yearly basis of a total site plan with only one conditional use hear-
ing. Consensus was to leave commercial recreation as a conditional use.

Gary Eastlund said the ICC has expressed some concern over some commercial
property already platted where a 15 foot setback would significantly re-
duce the number of square feet available or parking spaces. Therefore,
they have asked for an exception to the 15 foot setback requirement for
those properties already platted. Discussion followed regarding the
relatively few parcels already platted that would be negatively affected,
and the variance procedure that could be applied for.
Chrm. Perusich asked if there were any more comments from the audience.
Bruce Malkerson suggested the addition of the word "required" in the land-
scaping requirements, to allow anyone to plant additional trees, etc.
besides what is minimally required. Consensus was to agree.
Czaja/Schmitt moved to close the public hearing. Motioncarried unanimously.
Schmitt/Stoltzman moved to recommend to City Council to amend the City Code
as follows:
Sec. 11.33, Subd. 2 & 3: Change commercial recreation from a per-
mitted to a conditional use.
Sec. 11.29, Subd. 2 & 3: Change commercial recreation from a per-
mitted to a conditional use.
Sec. 11.29, Subd. 3: Remove mobile home parks as a conditional

PUBLIC HEARING - RE -ZONING REQUEST - CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Schmitt/Czaja moved to open the public hearing regarding the re -zoning request
made by the City of Shakopee to re -zone 70 acres from R-4 (Multi -family
Residential) to I-1 (Light Industrial). Motion carried unanimously.
The City Planner went over the proposal, background, considerations and re-
commended approval of the re -zoning request. She stated the owners of the
parcel are Jerry Scherber and George Siedl.
Mr. Barry Anderson, representing Jerry Scheer, stated he thinks I-1 or B-1
would be a more appropriate zoning than R-4, and they will accede to an I-1
Shakopee Planning Commission
August 9, 1984
Page 4
Zoning, with the expectation that other similarly placed parcels will be
treated similarly, and also that they may seek a change if development
seems to warrant it in the future.
The City Engineer said he would like to find out from the City Attorney
what impact this re -zoning would have on the City's acquisition of a part
of that property for roadway improvements.
Chrm. Perusich asked for comments from the audience, and there were none.
Schmitt/Czaja moved to close the hearing. Motion carried unanimously.
Schmitt/Czaja moved to recommend to City Council that the parcel located
in the SW -14 of S2 of Section 5 be re -zoned from R-4 to I -l. Motion carried
unanimously.
PUBLIC HEARING - RE -ZONING REQUEST BY HARMON HARRISON, JR. & BROOKS SUPERETTE
Czaja/Rockne moved to open the public hearing regarding the re -zoning re-
quest by Harmon Harrison, Jr. (Shakopee Car Wash) and Brooks Superette
from R-4 (Multi -family Residential) to B-1 (Highway Business). Motion
carried unanimously.
The City Planner pointed out on a map the location of the requested re-
zoning and went over the considerations. Staff's recommendation had been
to wait for the re -zoning study of the B-2 area, and now that it is fin-
ished just tonight, staff has no recommendation.
Mr. Harrison said he is requesting the re -zoning because as a legal non-
conforming use, he is limited in his signage and expansion of the business.
Comm. Schmitt suggested changing the B-2 to a one -acre minimum size, with
the same description, which refers to community business and activities
relating thereto. He would also suggest the language regarding shopping
center, and this would be supportive of the businesses already in place in
that area. Brooks might be a non -conforming size, but otherwise the busi-
nesses would be permitted uses.
Chrm. Perusich asked for comments from the audience.
Jerry Scherber asked if this would change B-2 to B-1. Comm. Schmitt res-
ponded that this would just change the minimum size of the B-2, but the
definition would be the same, which he read.
Bruce Malkerson, representing Brooks Superette, said he would like to con-
sider this suggestion further. He thinks the B-1 would be appropriate for
the existing use, if the new B-2 doesn't fit. He added that if the Plan-
ning Commission plans to re -zone other vacant areas along that road B-1,
he couldn't see any justification for not re -zoning an existing use B-1,
or B-2 with the modification if it fits. He would agree this request could
be tabled to see how it fits into the whole comprehensive plan, if that is
to be studied further. He feels the justification for the re -zoning would
be a change in circumstances from those that existed at the time the property
was originally zoned in the comp plan. They would also agree to a look at
the intersection of CR16 and CR17, if necessary.

Comm. Czaja pointed out that a car wash would be a conditional use in a
B-2 and a permitted use in a B-1.
Schmitt/Stoltzman moved to contine this hearing to the last item on the
agenda tonight. Motion carried unanimously.
PUBLIC HEARING - RE -ZONING REQUEST BY CLETE LINK FROM B-2 to B-1
Czaja/Rockne moved to open the public hearing regarding the re -zoning
request by Clete Link of 15 acres from B-2 to B-1. Motion carried unani-
mously.
The City Planner went over the background and considerations of this re-
quest. Staff recommendation was to table the item until the B-2 District land
use study was completed.
Clete Link said he certainly can't see why there is a need for more study
in this area. He gave some history of this land, which was cut down the
middle by the City to put in CR17, after it had been platted. In return
for that agreement to put the street through, the City said it would give
him any zoning he wanted for the two parcels. Now after five years in B-2,
he finds there is no demand for that big of a parcel. He now has people
interested in developing the property as a B-1 zone. He feels the City has
set the precedent for this property, with B-1 zoning from Hwy. 101 to 4th
Street, and B-1 would be appropriate. He wants to accomodate the investor
as it is good for the community, tax base, schools and employment.
Mr. Link wasn't sure of the proposed change of B-2 with a smaller minimum
lot size. Comm. Schmitt read the permitted uses. Comm. Schmitt thought
some sort of commercial would be preferable to multi -family residential
on that road, which will certainly be a collector for the by-pass. Dis-
cussion continued.
Chrm. Perusich asked for comments from the audience, and there were none.
Schmitt/Rockne moved to close the public hearing. Motion carried unanimously.
Comm. Schmitt asked if Mr. Link would be agreeable as a condition of the
re -zoning to maintain minimum one acre parcels on both sides. Mr. Link
said "Sure".
Schmitt/Stoltzman moved a favorable recommendation of the re -zoning of the
Clete Link property on the east and west sides of CR17 between 4th Avenue
and CR16 from B-2 to B-1, subject to the developer's agreement to maintain
a minimum one acre lot size.
The City Planner suggested getting a legal opinion on placing a condition
on a re -zoning. Mr. Link said he understands the traffic problems there,
and will try to minimize the curb cuts.
Motion carried with Comm. Czaja and Koehnen opposed.
Schmitt/Czaja moved for a five minute recess at 10:57 p.m. Motion carried
unanimously.

Schmitt/Rockne moved with the applicant's consent, to further continue
this hearing to September 6, 1984, subject to the discussion of the review
of the B-2 potential. Motion carried unanimously.
DISCUSSION - COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT
Czaja/Stoltzman moved to direct staff to set the public hearing date for
an amendment to the Subdivision Ordinance regarding cul-de-sacs for either
a second meeting in September or later. Motion carried unanimously.
DISCUSSION - SIX YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
Schmitt/Czaja moved to recommend to City Council approval of the Capital
Improvement Plan, with the following additions:
1. CR15 from 5th to Tahpah Park to cope with traffic;
2. CR16 from CR17 to CR83, including the intersection;
3. Sewer extension fro CR17 to CR79
4. Change the designation of #44 to Shenandoah Drive.
Motion carried unanimously.
OTHER BUSINESS
The City Planner informed the Commissioners about a large scale commercial
development being discussed near the Racetrack.
The City Planner said she followed up with the County on the house parked
illegally at CR16 and CR83.
The City Engineer said the developers of Shenandoah have until September 15,
1984 to get in a second access or seek a change in the conditions of the
Conditional Use Permit from the Planning Commission.
Comm. Schmitt complained about the traffic violations occurring at the em-
ployees entrance to Valleyfair, and asked Cncl. Vierling to bring it to City
Council for additional policing.
There was a brief discussion of the Downtown Revitalization Plan. Cncl.
Vierling said there is a question and answer sheet being prepared to answer
many questions and concerns.

OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
ADJ. REG. SESSION SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA AUGUST 21, 1984
Mayor Reinke called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. with Cncl. Wampach,
Lebens, Leroux, Vierling and Colligan present. Also present were John K
Anderson, City Admr.; Judith S. Cox, City Clerk; Judith Simac, City Plan-
ner; H': R. Spurrier, City Engineer; Jeanne Andre, Community Development
Director and Rod Krass, Assistant City Attorney.
Mayor Reinke gave a short welcome address to the cable -cast audience, and
introduced the Council and staff.
Wampach/Vierling moved to recess for an HRA meeting. Motion carried
unanimously.
Colligan/Wampach moved to re -convene the City Council meeting at 7:11 p.m.
Motion carried unanimously.
Liaison reports were given by Councilmembers.
Cncl. Lebens reported on several complaints she received from residents
regarding lack of dog control, water problem at Second and Shumway and
speeding traffic on 10th Avenue.
Mayor Reinke asked if there was anyone present in the audience who wished
to address the Council on any item not on the agenda, and there was no
response.
Colligan/Vierling moved to approve the minutes of August 7, 1984, as kept.
Roll Call: Ayes; Unanimous Noes; None Motion carried.
Leroux/ Colligan moved to approve the minutes of July 31, 1984 as kept.
Cncl. Lebens asked for additional language covering the questions asked by
Mel Lebens of the business owners present at the meeting regarding the taxes
and assessments and downtown redevelopment plan.
Lebens/Leroux moved to amend the minutes of July 31, 1984 to include on
page 3, first paragraph:
Mr. Lebens stated that he figured after subtracting the City
property and residential units, which he doesn't believe can
be assessed because there is no benefit, there are 56 lots
left, which makes $1.99 per square foot. He asked those who
feel they can handle $1.99 per square foot to raise their
hands. He also figured there would be an assessed value in-
crease on your property of about 130% of your present valua-
tion. He asked if anyone was willing to pay 130% of their
present valuation. He said there will also be another as-
sessed valuation increase as a result of the assessments made
for these improvements, called "the valuation thereof". This
will be another 80% increase of your assessed valuation.
Therefore, the rental rate will triple and you still haven't
fixed up the front of your building, which you are expected to
invest $7 to $8 million dollars in.
Motion to amend carried with Cncl. Vierling and Cncl. Lebens abstaining
because of their absence at that meeting.
Main motion as amended carried with Cncl. Vierling and Cncl. Lebens ab-
staining.

Roll Call: Ayes; Unanimous Noes; None Motion carried
Cncl. Lebens said she has been contacted by a group of concerned citizens
relative to the sewer project on 5th Avenue, and she invited them to appear
before the Council tonight to voice their concerns.
Fred Lebens, 604 West 5th, stated he thinks they are being ripped off,
by using the City's contractor for this work. He can get a private con-
tractor to do the work for much less money.
The City Engineer explained that the whole issue evolves around the re-
construction of sanitary sewer in 5th Avenue, which was necessitated by
the construction of the new Women's Correctional Facility. He explained
the option offered to the property owners of using the City's contractors
to replace their services at this time. He said if Orangeburg services
are found, they must be replaced, as they are no longer allowed in the City.
He said the estimate quoted is the maximum that can be computed for the
work. He went over the estimate in more detail. He said the property owners
are objecting to the restoration of curb and gutter.
Fred Lebens asked about the purpose of the construction and contingency
fee. .Mayor Reinke responded regarding how these fees are estimated. He
stressed that if the actual costs are less than the estimate, only the
actual amount is paid. He further explained that if work is done by an
independent contractor, it has to be done according to the City's specifi-
cations, including all the restoration. He explained that if there is an
existing sidewalk, policy is that it is to be replaced.
Mr. Lebens asked about the language stating that everybody has to sign the
waiver. The Ass't City Attorney said the language refers to the fact that
it has to be signed to be legal, and in order to be fileable, it has to be
notarized.
Mayor Reinke asked if anyone else wanted to comment on the project, and
there was no response.
The City Engineer asked if City Council wanted to add a second option whereby
defective services can be replaced by an independent contractor, if done in
a reasonable amount of time. The Ass't City Attorney clarified that there
has to be some method of bonding or a letter of credit to protect the City
before a private contractor could perform work in the street. The City
Engineer replied that he has the necessary forms to protect the City.
Lebens/Leroux moved to give the involved property owners in the 5th Street
sanitary sewer project the option of hiring an independent contractor as
long as the contractor meets all of the City's specifications. Motion
carried unanimously.
Mr. Lebens asked if the City would condemn their lines going into the house.
The City Engineer answered that if they would be condemned, it would be by
the Building Official.
Mayor Reinke added that if the property owners used the City's contractor,
the assessment can be spread over 10 years on the real estate taxes, which
couldn't be done with an independent contractor.
Mr. Weckman asked if Orangeburg is found, will the City condemn from the
property line to the house. The City Engineer responded that he could get
an answer from the Building Official and get back to the gentlemen.

LeRoy Wolf asked about the interest rate to be charged. The City Engineer
explained that is a very complex matter regarding the current interest
rate and limitations the City can add. He suggested getting a report from
the Finance Director, and getting that to Mr. Wolf.
Mr. Wolf asked if there was anyone else in the City being forced to re-
place Orangeburg services. The City Engineer answered there is no other
area at this time and this is being done only because the street will be
open. Mayor Reinke compared this to the reconstruction of Holmes Street,
where defective sewer and water lines were replaced at the same time the
street was being worked on. Cncl. Colligan replied that if another pro-
ject of this type is done, Orangeburg services would be replaced.
Mr. Wolf complained about the short time frame they would have to get bids
to replace their services if Orangeburg is found. The City Engineer ex-
plained that the City's contractor will go through and work the main line
first and then later the services would be replaced, so it would not have
to be done immediately, but it is a short time frame which is why the City
met with these people early to alert them to the possibilities. The City
took bids for its work to get the best price, and there is economy in hav-
ing the same contractor undertake this work also.
Clete Link suggested running new sewer lines from the lateral and let the
people hook up, and then if there is a problem later, they could work from
their property and not disturb the street. Mayor Reinke responded that it
would be unnecessary to replace laterals on the general tax levy.
Mayor Reinke explained the City's policy of assessment deferment for seniors
who qualify.
Mr. Lebens asked why a contractor would not be allowed to tunnel in under
the curbs, as has been done for years without problems. The City Engineer
responded that there has been a lot of problems with curbs sagging after
contractors have tunneled under them, and he could show many examples of it.
Mr. Lebens said there is also some curb that sags without construction under
it, and he would like to take his chances.
A woman in the audience asked about the problem of smelly water. Mayor
Reinke told her to get in contact with the SPDC Manager.
Leroux/Vierling moved to open the public hearing regarding the application
for $600,000 Commercial Development Revenue Note by the Shakopee 84 Part-
nership. Motion carried unanimously.
Jerry Hertel, representing the Shakopee 84 Partnership, said they intend
to build a small shopping center anchored by Tom Thumb, with one other lease
in place. They hope to have it 100% leased by the time of construction.
He said this would be similar to the one they built on CR42 near Burnsville
Center.
The City Planner brought up various land and zoning considerations regard-
ing this site plan. She said the preliminary and final plat of this site
is to be heard by Planning Commission September 6, 1984. Clete Link is the
owner of the land, and he has requested re -zoning, which has not been de-
cided by City Council and at this time the minimum lot size does not con-
form to the current zoning. The plans also call for gas tanks and fuel
service, which is a conditional use both in the B-1 and B-2 and has to go
through the conditional use process.
The City Admr. explained how the law changed by the State putting a cap
on IRB's affects this application. Mr. Hertel stated he is prepared to
give the City the $6,000, one percent application fee immediately, so an
extension of the City's entitlement allocation can be filed with the State.
The City Admr. said if the City denies the application, the fee is refundable.
Leroux/Wampach moved to continue the public hearing to August 28, 1984 at
8:00 p.m. Motion carried unanimously.

John Shardlow, Consulting Planner, gave a slide presentation covering
the Racetrack Area Planning and Zoning Study, and the recommended code
amendments. He stated that the requirement of planting trees every
50 feet of the boulevard was the only requirement that would apply to
existing businesses.
Walt Whitmore, Executive Vice -President of Valleyfair, asked about the
change recommending zoning commercial recreation facilities as condi-
tional uses. He said that would mean they would have to come in and go
through the conditional use process about 60 times a year for various
changes and additions. He questioned the legality of changing an exist-
ing permitted use to a conditional use. He is concerned about the speci-
fic language used.
Mr. Shardlow stated it was his intent to address the use of vacant parcels.
He said there are a number of ways of addressing an existing use, such
as having a site plan on file and approving changes once a year.
David Grant, an attorney for Valleyfair, stated he doesn't think it is
correct or appropriate to change an existing permitted use to a conditional
use. He also asked for clarification regarding the various performance
standards and at what point they would become effective. He asked if
there was some kind of quantifying element that would be used whereby if
a certain percentage or dollar amount was involved in a modification or
replacement the new design standards would apply.
The City Planner responded that staff had made a recommendation to leave
amusement parks as a permitted use, but Planning Commission did not want
to leave the door open for future developments that would not have any
restrictions. She said Planning Commission expressed its desire that
Valleyfair only be subjected to one annual conditional use permit that
would cover the entire site plan. She added that the performance standards
would be interpreted that any new development at Valleyfair, including
expansion of existing facilities, would be subject to the new standards.
Mr. Shardlow suggested that if the Council wanted some control over ex-
pansion of Valleyfair, there could be some type of planned unit develop-
ment that would set forth various areas for future expansion within that
frame. Discussion continued.
Mr'. 0. B. O'Brien, owner of Danny's Construction, said he has some of the
same problems with being adjacent to the Racetrack. Ile thinks a change
from permitted to conditional use would be damaging to his business. The
City Planner stated this change from permitted to conditional use applied
only to commercial recreation, so would not apply to Mr. O'Brien's property.
Mr. O'Brien asked about the performance standards he would have to meet
if he wanted to build another building. He wondered why steel is outlawed
as a building material, as that is his business, which employs 140 people.
He said that over 50% of the buildings in the State and USA are covered
by steel sheeting. The City Planner pointed out the variance procedure
in place for the building standards.
Mr. Sharldow responded that it was the Planning Commission's desire to not
allow pole barns, and they had to set some standards to attempt to be fair.
They invited the input of all people in the commercial/industrial businesses.
Mr. Kevin O'Brien said he works for Danny's Construction. He said steel
is a very good building component, and he can name countless examples in
Shakopee and elsewhere. He said there are other ways of eliminating pole
barns. He said the Association of Metal Builders is writing standards
that have to do with depth, weight, color, etc., that could be used in de-
sign standards. Be said there is time and cost involved in pursuing a
variance, and it would be unfair to them and their clients to require them
to go through a variance procedure for a steel building.
Gary Eastlund, representing the ICC, said they had some concern about some
parcels in the downtown business district that are already platted where a
15 foot setback would be a hardship affecting the square footage and park-
ing spaces. Therefore, they asked that existing platted parcels be exempt
from this setback requirement. He would like to see these items addressed
as clearly.as possible to get rid of variances and additional permits.
Shakopee City Council

Clete Link asked why the City wants to eliminate pole barns, if the property
owner doesn't consider them detrimental. He said there are a lot of people
who can't afford and don't need expensive buildings.
Gary Eastlund volunteered that the ICC will meet anytime to consider these
items further.
Leroux/Wampach moved to table consideration of the code amendments recommended
by the Racetrack Area Planning and Zoning Study and refer it to the ICC,
requesting them to meet prior to the September 6, 1984 Planning Commission
meeting, and to advise City staff as to the time and date of the meeting
so people who are interested in attending can contact City staff for the
information. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Shardlow gave a slide presentation on the study of the B-2 zone. He
said it seemed the definition of B-2 as serving the Shakopee neighborhood
seems to be appropriate. He said the biggest concern was the minimum lot
size of 5 acres. He suggested the change might be to just change the mini-
mum lot size downward, rather than change the B-2 to B-1 or some other
zoning. He pointed out that the single most limiting feature of this area
is the depth of bedrock, which makes it very expensive to develop. He
said the depth of bedrock is so variable that it is wry important that
anything that happens takes the whole area into consideration, so that what
happens in one place doesn't adversely affect development on other property,
especially as it relates to fill and utilities. He also said the traffic
flow and site lines at the intersection of CR17 and CR16 would have to be
incorporated into planning considerations. He stated his feelings that
the City has more commercial zoning that it can support, and he would not
feel it appropriate to allow strip commercial along all the roadways to
the Racetrack. He presented three alternatives for re -zoning the B-2 zone.
The City Planner stated Planning Commission will be considering the alter-
natives for B-2 zoning at the September 6, 1984 meeting.
The City Planner indicated that staff recommends the rezoning of the R-4
property near the Racetrack to I-1, but because of legal concerns regard-
ing the City's acquisition of land for the new north/south collector street
it is recommended this be referred back to Planning Commission for receipt
of a legal opinion.
Colligan/Leroux moved to table consideration of the rezoning. Motion
carried unanimously.
Leroux/Colligan moved to re -consider the tabling of the rezoning. Motion
carried unanimously.
Colligan/Leroux moved to refer to Planning Commission consideration of the
rezoning of the R-4 property adjacent to the Racetrack, pending legal
opinion. Motion carried unaninously.
The City Planner said it is the opinion of the Ass't City Attorney that the
recommendation made by the Planning Commission for the conditional rezoning
of the Clete Link property on the east and west side of CR17 from B-2 to B-1
is illegal. Staff recommends tabling this rezoning request pending resolution
of the B-2 study area.
Jerry Hertel said if the rezoning request is approved, they had hoped to
begin construction next month. He is concerned with the delay involved in
the further study of the B-2 zone.
Clete Link said he doesn't understand the problem. Planning Commission
felt this parcel had to be looked at before the other parcels, to avoid
spot zoning. He said there has already been four months of study, and he
doesn't see the relationship of the other parcels to this request. He said
the property was B-2 for 5 years and he couldn't get it marketed. He feels
that a precedent was set by the City allowing B-1 from Hwy. 101 to 4th.,
with B-1 also south of CR16. He thinks the City should honor a request
from developers to build in Shakopee, to add growth and tax dollars.
Shakopee City Council
August 21, 1984

The Ass't City Attorney explained the legal problem involved with the
recommendation. Mr. Link suggested City Council remove the condition of
the one acre size and just rezone the property to B-1. Mr. Hertel said
he would be willing to keep a minimum of one -acre size on a deed restric-
tion or some other method to avoid the legal problem. The Asst City
Attorney stated that would not work.
Discussion followed concerning a time line, and what can be done to expe-
dite the public hearing required, etc. Mr. Hertel said if the decision
was made close to September 25, 1984, it would still be feasible to begin
construction this year.
Colligan/Vierling moved to refer back to Planning Commission the rezoning
request by Clete Link of property on the east and west side of CR17, and
set a special City Council meeting for September 25, 1984. Motion carried
unanimously.
The City Planner showed the revised plat for South Parkview Add'n, and said
staff recommends approval of it subject to 13 conditions. She gave some
further background and said staff could not find any other cases where the
City paid for part of the construction of the street, as is being requested.
Leroux/Lebens moved to approve the Preliminary Plat of South Parkview Add'n,
subject to the following conditions:
1. Approval of a Title Opinion by th.e City Attorney.
2. A Park Dedication in land dedication should be made to provide
for the retention basin.
3. Execution of a Devel.oper's Aq eeimt nt. for tho construction of
the required improvements:
a. A sidewalk to be constructed along the north side of
•. 13th Avenue in accordance with the Design Criteria and
Standard Specifications adopted by the City of Shakopee.

Bill Englehardt, of Englehardt Associates of Chaska, said he has been doing
the engineering for this plat. He said that originally they had lots along
the south side of 13th Avenue, but Planning Commission had suggested dedi-
cating parkland there. Therefore, they feel there is no developer benefit,
and therefore they request the City pay for the half of the construction
of 13th Avenue.
Mr. Englehardt also said this situation requires a lift station and the
problem of how to spread out the costs of construction and maintenance.
He surveyed several other towns in the area for the number of lift stations,
the costs involved and how the costs are spread.
The City Engineer said the argument that the additional taxpayers offsets
the operational costs of a lift station is excellent. He just wants to
point out that if the City assumes this responsibility a policy will have
to decided on regarding an assessment district. He added that eventually
this area would get gravity service and it would no longer have to be main-
tained. He suggested a district be created whereby day to day maintenance
is not assessed, but major capital repairs are.
Mayor Reinke said the City has never picked up costs of constructing a
street as is being requested. He pointed out that Outlot A is actually
a drainage swale and therefore is helping the plat with its drainage
situation.
Leroux/Lebens moved to amend the motion to strike Condition No. 12 and state
instead that the City is paying for over -sizing costs only for the con-
struction of 13th Avenue as a collector street. Motion to amend carried
unanimously.

RE: Cal Mech Permit Fee
DATE: September. 4, 1984
Introduction:
I have assessed Cal Mechanical a double permit fee for not
securing the plumbing permit on the Racetrack backstretch.
Background:
Two days prior to the plumbers starting work on this project
Carlos Lopez contacted me on securing the required permits. I
informed him at that time due to legal problems at the track
all permits were on hold until the following Tuesday, however,
he could move his equipment onto the site and work until Tuesday
when our problem would hopefully be resolved.
Our problem was resolved on Tuesday and he was instructed to
obtain his permit. He was told five times over the next two
weeks, and on Thursday, August 23rd, I told his plumbers if he
wasn't in by Friday morning, August 24th, I would give them a
Stop Work order until the permits were obtained. On Monday,
August 27th, I issued the Stop Work order. Four hours later,
Carlos secured the permit. I talked to him on the job site
and he said "he wouldn't argue about it, he didn't have time
for nit picking."
If the permit process is nit picking, then maybe we should
abandon it.
Alternatives:
1. Waive the penalty fee.
2. Cut the penalty fee in half.
3. Leave the penalty fee as is.
Recommendation:
Leave the penalty in effect.

Shakopee, Mn 55379
Gentlemen:
On August 27th, Cal-Mech, Inc. was required to pay a double permit
on plumbing work performed by our firm on the Shakopee Race Track.
When we started the project on August 13th, we were told by the Cont-
ractor that permits did not have to be submitted at this time
because there were details which were being resolved by the City
of Shakopee.
Later that week I met with the City Inspector who requested that
I submit a permit. At this time I had only received a letter of
intent which he informed me must have a dollar amount on it in
order to receive a permit. During the week of the 20th, we came
up with a dollar amount and Monday the 27th I paid a double
permit, the penalty being $ 3,003.38.
Due to the complexity in the schedule at the project, many items
do not follow a timely sequence. This was not an intentional
delay on my part and the time frame does not seem excessive to
warrant a penalty of this amount.
I request a refund in the amount of $ 3,003.38.
We would appreciate this request to go to Council as soon as
possible. Thank you for your consideration in these matters.
Very truly yours,
CAL-MECH, INC.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE CABLE COMMUNICATIONS ADVISORY COMMISSION
REGULAR SESSION SHAKOPEE, MINNESOTA AUGUST 27, 1984
Chrm. Anderson called the meeting to order at 7:47 p.m. with Comm. Harrison
and Williams present. Absent were Comm. Abeln and Davis. Also present
were Judith S. Cox, City Clerk and Bob Ziegler, Shakopee Community Access
Corporation Board member.
Harrison/Williams moved to approve the minutes of July 30, 1984. Motion
carried unanimously.
Considerable discussion ensued regarding the equipment substitutions and
changes in location of character generators from the original proposal.
The City Clerk stated she would like ZU to fill out the variance applica-
tion, giving complete explanations of equipment, including model numbers,
and an explanation of exactly how the system will work.
Chrm. Anderson explained the negotiations of the sub -committee with ZU
regarding changes in the character generators for institutional use. ZU
is now trying to trade in the unneccesary equipment purchases from VDS,
to buy the appropriate Compuvid equipment at little or no additional cost.
The character generator will be at the head end, with remote, non -dedicated
phone lines to the four locations. All 4 locations can input, and the
character generator at the head end outputs on Channels 10 and 12. Mr.
Abbott has not yet completed his negotiations with VDS, but wants Council
approval of the concept so there is no delay in the purchasing of the new
equipment.
Harrison/Williams moved to approve the suggested substitutions of VDS sys-
tem for the Compuvid system as stated in Mr. Abbott's letter, dated August
22, 1984, with contingencies as follows:
1. supply of acceptable equipment list;
2. completion and approval of variance application.
Motion carried unanimously.
Bill Lepley, ZU Studio Manager, arrived at 8:20 p.m.
Williams/Harrison moved to direct staff to request from ZU an idea of how
they will train the users of the character generators, and how they will
provide coordination over the users. Motion carried unanimously.
Harrison/Williams moved that when this meeting adjourns, it adjourn to 5:00
p.m. September 4, 1984, for the purpose of approving the variance request
and equipment list from ZU. Motion carried unanimously.
Harrison/Williams moved to table discussion of the Metro -Area Interconnect
Commission until the September 24, 1984 meeting. Motion carried unanimously.
Discussion followed regarding the proposed budget for Cable Communications.
The City Clerk answered questions regarding salary for City staff. She said
50% was just a projection, and it was hard to know how much time would be
needed. She explained the City Admr. had suggested that the budget be looked at
again in mid -year, and if the intern did not need to spend half his time on
Cable related items, the cable budget could be reduced.

The City Clerk added that the $5,100 penalty ZU will be paying will be going
in the Cable fund, and it has not been added to this budget. She said the
$17,500 franchise fee due January 1, 1985 represents the figures projected by
ZU, which are below the projected figures from the proposal.
Bob Ziegler spoke in support of the Shakopee Community Access Corp. (SCAC) 1985
proposed budget. He said they feel the donations expected from local
businesses are realistic, given the number and size of the businesses in
Shakopee. They are,also planning a membership drive in September, where
they hope to greatly increase the number of members in the corp. There are
20 members now.
Comm. Harrison (also a SCAC Board Member) and Bob Ziegler answered questions
regarding various line items of the SCAC budget.
Chrm. Anderson read a letter from SCAC stating their goals and objectives,
stressing increasing membership, purchase of equipment and expanding local
programming on Channel 3.
Comm. Harrison stated he feels the purchase of portable switching equipment
is of the highest priority now, to save on the present equipment, decrease
editing time and increase the capability of being able to cable -cast from
several locations at one time.
Chrm. Anderson commented that he thinks 50% of the franchise fee is a little
strong, although he does admire the SCAC ambitious membership and donation
goals.
Comm. Harrison spoke in support of the SCAC, stating he feels this first
year is extremely important for building a strong access system, and the
support of the City is needed until they are stronger. He would suggest
deferring the deficit for another year. He feels to deny SCAC adequate
funding would be very detrimental, as it is justifiable money. The City
Clerk added that if this Commission wanted to support SCAC to a greater
extent this year, it would not have to be precedent setting as far as es-
tablishing the percentage of the franchise fee for future years.
Bob Ziegler said they are not asking for the biggest part of their budget
from the City, only one-third; and they are planning to go out and get two-
thirds of their budget on their own. He feels they have cut on the budget
as far as they can.
Comm. Harrison said if the SCAC fails, they won't be back asking for that
much more money with no more members.
Harrison/Williams moved for a five minute recess at 9:12 p.m.
Chrm. Anderson called the meeting back to order at 9:26 p.m.
Chrm. Anderson asked for and received approval from the Commissioners for
a letter he is planning to submit to the Shakopee Valley News congratulat-
ing the SCAC for its efforts this far, and soliciting members for SCAC,
to be signed by this Commission.

Chrm. Anderson said he is still concerned with the general public's lack of
knowledge of the City's part in the cable franchise and the existence of
this committee as an avenue for complaints, other than just cancelling cable
if there is a problem.
Discussion followed regarding getting this information out in a positive
manner, rather than just asking for complaints, by listing all of the duties
and responsibilities of this Commission.
Harrison/Williams moved to direct staff to explore possibilities and expen-
ses of running a survey through SPUC or DECA, or other alternatives, in
coordination with the SCAC, which will enable the Commission to find out
the perceptions first. Motion carried unanimously.
The City Clerk explained the correct rules of procedure for allowing the
Chairman to address an issue, as was requested regarding the SCAC budget.
Williams moved to support the 1985 SCAC proposed budget as presented.
Chrm. Anderson stated he would like to speak to this issue, and passed the
gavel to Comm. Harrison.
Comm. Anderson seconded the motion.
Comm. Anderson stated he would like to support the recommended budget of
SCAC, which is asking for 50% of the franchise fee, $8,750. He strongly
feels that in this first fledging year of SCAC, we need to support their
activities. They are willing to go out and make up two-thirds of their
budget, and are looking for only one-third of their budget from the City.
He thinks they have a very ambitious goal and budget, and if they can at-
tain it, it will show by having a strong public access in the City. If
they do not hit their goals, or close to it, they will have a hard time
coming back next year asking for the same amount. Even if the City has to
incur a small additional deficit to support the public access budget, we
should be willing to risk one year.
Motion carried unanimously.
Chrm. Harrison returned the gavel to Chrm. Anderson.
Williams/Harrison moved to accept the ].985 Cable Communications budget as pro-
posed, requesting that the $5,100 penalty from ZU, be used as part of the
budget revenue. Motion carried unanimously.
The City Clerk clarified that in essence, they are asking that the deficit
be absorbed for another year.
Harrison/Williams moved that the previous motions include the total dollar
amount of $8,750 for SCAC and $15,374 for Cable. Motion carried unanimously.
The City Clerk asked for someone from each commission to attend the City
Council meeting September 11, 1984 to speak in support of the proposed bud-
gets and be available to answer questions.

Comm. Harrison reported on the plans SCAC are making with ZU for public
contact for access and the studio.
Commissioners indicated they would like to continue receiving copies of
the minutes of the Metro -Area Interconnection Commission.
The City Clerk informed the Commission that City Council accepted their
recommendations regarding penalty against ZU, and also passed the resolu-
tion making the changes in the organizational set-up of this Commission,
as recommended.
Bill Lepley asked the Commission whose decision is final regarding censorship
when there is a difference of opinion between SCAC and ZU. Staff will research
for discussion at a future meeting.
Harrison/Williams moved to adjourn at 10:05 p.m. Motion carried unanimously.

MEMO TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator
FROM: Barry A. Stock, Admin. Aide/Transit Coordinator
RE: Van Pool Request for Proposal Opening
DATE: August 31, 1984
Introduction:
The vanpool request for proposal submission deadline was
August 24, 1984. One proposal was received in response to our
advertisement and specifications. At the Energy and Transporta-
tion Committee meeting held on August 30, 1984, a motion was
made by the Committee recommending City Council to authorize
entering into a contract agreement with the provider that sub-
mitted a proposal.
Back round_
Staff, MnDOT and the Energy and Transportation Committee
have reviewed the proposal submitted by Van Pool Services Inc.
All were in agreement that the proposal was well written and
that it met the specifications as advertised.
Because Van Pool Services is presently under a contract
with MnDOT to provide third -party vanpooling services to all
cities in the state, they offer to provide all management
services associated with the van pool program at no cost to the
City of Shakopee. Van Pool Services Inc. proposes to provide
the following services for our vanpool program:
1. Identify markets and assist in matching and group
formation.
2. On-site van pool program management.
3. Van pool procurement and delivery.
4. Driver qualifications.
5. Van pool administration - fare collections - reports -
driver liason.
6. Fleet management - maintenance and insurance.
7. Vehicle disposal.
Furthermore, Van Pool Services will assign vehicles to
vanpool groups and not require the City of Shakopee or the vanpool
driver to sign or become obligated to a lease agreement.
The vehicle cost proposal submitted by Van Pool Services Inc.
is as follows:
Fixed Costs - 15 Passenger Van = $445/mo.
12 Passenger Van = $390/mo.
In addition to these fixed costs, monthly operational
costs for gasoline, maintenance, and insurance will be added.
Maintenance and insurance are figured on a fixed cost per mile
basis - for a 0-90 mile round trip - 50 per mile. Gasoline is
added on an actual cost basis.
For example, the average cost of a 15 -passenger, with 14
paying passengers and a 60 mile/day round trip will be approx-
imately $671.80/mo. It is our hope that fares collected will
be sufficient to reimburse Van Pool Services for this entire
amount. In the event a van is not .running at full capacity,
the City will subsidize the vanpool for the costs associated
with the empty seats.
Based on their review of the proposal the Energy and
Transportation Committee felt that Van Pool Services Inc. could
effectively provide the City's van pool program as addressed in
the specifications. The Committee also agreed that it was a
definite plus to have the same provider for both the Dial -A -Ride
and Van Pool program.
Alternatives:
1. Accept the proposal offered by Van Pool Services Inc.
for the van pool program in Shakopee as recommended
by the Energy and Transportation Committee.
2. Reject the proposal submitted by Van Pool Services
Inc. and readvertise.
Recommendation:
Staff recommends alternative #l.
Action -Requested:
Move to accept the proposal submitted by Van Pool Services
Inc. for the van pool program in Shakopee and authorize the
appropriate City Officials to enter into a contract with Van
Pools Services Inc. pending Mn/DOT final approval.

TO: John K. Anderson, City Administrator
FROM: Jeanne Andre, Community Development Director
RE: Acquisition of Railroad Property
DATE: August 29, 1984
Introduction:
The City staff (Engineering and Community Development) have
been reviewing undeveloped property in the vicinity of Market
Street between Fourth and Seventh Avenues to look at development
options. As part of this review it has come to my attention
that there is abandoned rail right-of-way in this area. This
memo is to solicit City Council direction as to the value of
possible City acquisition of this right-of-way.
Back round:
The attached map outlines the railroad land at issue. The
railroad has no interest in improvements to this area, and the
shape of their parcel is not suitable for development, but rather
would be used to help square off other lots and facilitate an
organized approach to developing the area. The Council can either
acquire the land or encourage adjacent land owners to look into
the acquisition on their own. While the railroad land is not
suitable for any likely road alignment that could be utilized by
the City, it could possibly be traded for nearby land when a road
alignment is designated.
To better explore the possible opportunities to utilize this
right of way, it may be helpful to request the City Attorney to
inquire of appropriate railroad officials as to whether they are
willing to sell this land, and what their price would be. This
land was in the portion previously designated as station property
and therefore was not sold off to adjacent property owners as
occurred with land to the east. However the City has successfully
acquired other station property to the west at a fairly reasonable
cost. Staff hopes to bring a memo on general development of this
area to the September 18, 1984, Council meeting, and it would be
useful to know the Council's position on this acquisition prior
to that discussion.
Alternatives:
1. Do nothing
2. Suggest to adjacent property owners that they look
into acquiring this land.
3. Request the City Attorney to inquire as to the avail-
ability and cost of acquisition of this land.
4. Authorize the City Attorney to make an offer or negotiate
the purchase of this land.
J/ 4 -
Requested
Requested Action:
Request the City Attorney to inquire as to the availa-
bility and cost of acquisition of abandoned rail right-of-way
in the vicinity of Fourth and Market Streets from the Milwaukee
Railroad.

SUBJECT: Hazardous Sidewalk Conditions at the Southeast
Corner of Fuller Street at Levee Drive, and the South-
west Corner of Lewis Street at Levee Drive
DATE: August 31, 1984
INTRODUCTION:
Pursuant to Council direction or, August 7, 1-384, 1 have esti-
mated the cost of reconstructing the sidewalk as it intersects
the retaining wall at -the locations noted above.
BACKGROUND:
The sidewalk at these la scat wa-_ cortE3ti-ticted with a streetl
parking lot project in 11368. The design did not provide for
-t smooth transition over the retaining wall leaving a 16" drop
off at Fuller Street and a 7 differential at Lewis Street.
To eliminate the grade difference by modifying the retaining
wall and reconstructing the ad acent s i d e w a I k., i t would cost
$350.00 at each location.
Because of the proximity oaf the work to the intersections,
it would seem prudent to construct curb ramps at the same t ime
the remedial work is done. Administrative policy adopted in
June of this year, does encourage the installation of curb
ramps when sidewalk is replaced i Y-1 a corner radius. It is
important to note , however, that there are no -ramps at the
driveway openings to the parking lots. This means that an
accessible path -if travel will. not exist on the sidewalk which
parallels Fuller or Lewis Streets even if ramps are installeO
at Levee Drive.
The proposed route of the Downtown By -Pass must also be con-
sidered, as it Would cut through the area of these improvements.

MEMO TO: Mayor and Council

RE: Final Payment of Westwood
Traffic Engineering Bills.
DATE: August 31, 1984
INTRODUCTION
The City of Shakopee, in addition to its major contract
with Westwood Planning and Engineering for the downtown study,
entered into two additional traffic Engineering studies with
Westwood. The first was for the Shakopee traffic patterns
study which has been completed and accepted by Planning Commission
and City Council. The second study was the Shakopee geometric
study which was the additional money authorized to secure suffi-
cient Engineering information to make a presentation to the
Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) for the approval
of our mini by-pass proposal.
FINAL INVOICES
The first invoice is for the Shakopee traffic patterns study.
The City authorized the traffic study at a figure of $5,000.00.
In addition to that, as mentioned in Ken Anderson's letter of
August 31, 1984, the City directed Westwood to attend additional
meetings and it was noted that there would be additional costs.
Finally, the City decided to submit the study to a large number
of people on several Boards and Commissions and this required
additional work. Bo Spurrier and I have reviewed the additional
contract expenses being specifically requested by Westwood and
concur that the additions are reasonable and appropriate at
$3,214.80.
The second contract was for the Shakopee geometries study
for the mini by-pass. This work was completed at a cost of
$6,804.73. As noted in Ken Anderson's letter of August 31, 1984,
the initial project estimate was $4,000.00, but again the City
requested additional calculations and presentations both at the
Downtown Committee meeting and for submittal to Mn/DOT. The
$2,804.73 in excess of the $4,000.00 estimate, unlike the extras
on the first contract, were not brought to Council's attention
during the completion of the work. Again, the City Engineer and
I have reviewed the additional hours required to prepare the
specific products the City received and feel that the authoriza-
tion of the additional $2,804.73 is appropriate.

Shakopee, MN 55379
Dear Mr. Spurrier:
Westwood Planning & Engineering Company has completed our work for the
City of Shakopee in developing a traffic management plan and assisting
with programming of street improvements for residential Shakopee. The
total cost of our services for this work amounts to $10,275.67.
Our contract with the City called for 72 hours of professional time plus
40 hours of technician time to produce letter reports, recommendations,
working maps and non -reproducible graphics to assist the city engineer's
in his program development activities. Total time for the project
involved 167.5 hours of professional and 83 hours of technical time.
Additional time was required for a number of reasons:
• The city directed our attendance at planning commission, downtown
committee and city council meetings. It should be noted that there
were a number of staff and public meetins which were shortened or
cancelled once we were there because of staff emergencies or no
quorum.
• The city decided to disseminate our findings to elected and
appointed officials for review. This required a much greater
detail in summarizing our findings as well as developing re-
producible graphics and presentation graphics.
We are therefore requesting our contract be increased by the following
amount:
o Meetings
21.75 hours n $49.00/hr. $1,065.75
o Map framing and mounting services 111.30

MEMO TO: Ma)oroand Council
FROM: John K. Anderson, City Admin.
RE: Nominees From 3rd Commission District
to Scott County Study Commission.
DATE: August 30, 1984
INTRODUCTION
The Shakopee City Council, at its August 28, 1984 meeting,
directed staff to check with some 11 citizens listed on staff's
August 21, 1984 memo to determine their interest in serving on
the Scott County Study Commission.
CITIZENS INTERESTED IN—THE COMMISSION
I have checked with all of the individuals listed in the
August 21st memo. I explained the goal of the County Study
Commission and the estimated amount of time and effort that
would be required to complete the twelve month study. The
following people are still interested in serving on the Study
Commission:
Dr. Robert Mayer, Rod Krass, Jerry Wampach, John Schmitt,
Ray Foslid and Paulette Risland.
ALTERNATIVES
In deciding upon who should be nominated from Shakopee
Council should consider the nominee's general knowledge of
local government, general management experience and the nomi-
nee's ability to make a strong contribution to a large Study
Committee with over 10 participants.
Council should also consider the strategy of recommending
fewer than 4 people to the Scott County Board if Council feels
strongly about insuring that 1 or 2 particular candidates are
then selected by the County to represent Shakopee.
RECOMMENDATION
The Scott County Study Commission process will be twelve
months long and will require that the Shakopee representatives
are willing to contribute at each meeting regarding a number of
topics that may be controversial. For this reason Council and I
recommend nominating only those people Councilmembers feel will
be truly committed to the Study Commission process.

Motion by Commissioner Seconded by Commissioner
C. The County Administrator read Resolution No. 84056, a Resolution
Z°;��r 1JQ.A
Petitioning the Senior County Judge for the Establishment of a Scott County
Study Commission in Accordance with M.S. 375A.13.
Pam McCabe, Assistant County Attorney, stated
that the Commissioners may suggest a slate of names to be ap-
pointed to the Study Commission, but the Judge is not mandated
to appoint from that list. She added that the Statute mandates
the establishment of a commission, but does not provide a time
table. She explained that the Statute requires that include
amount the members of the commission are to be three County
Commissioners, two elected County officials, and at least one
representative from each of the County Commissioner Districts,
who is not a County Commissioner. The number of members of the
Commission is set by the presiding Judge, not to exceed 15
persons.
Considerable discussion ensued regarding how
the suggested list of names could be compiled. There was con-
cern that the townships and cities have equal representation.
Commissioner Boegeman moved, seconded by Com-
missioner Stromwall, to direct the County Administrator to send
a letter to all the townships and cities in the County inform-
ing them of a joint meeting to be held with the County Board
on September 17, 1984 at 8:00 p.m. in the Board Room at the
County Court House, at which time it is requested the townships
and cities bring a list of names and resumes of those people
who would like to serve on the County Government Study Commis-
sion. This may require joint meetings with the townships and
cities, as four representatives will be picked from each Com-
missioner District. Motion carried.

RE: Urban Corp Work -Study Agreement
DATE: August 30, 1984
INTRODUCTION
Attached is an agreement with the Urban Corps for work-
study students..
BACKGROUND
This program is for a ten week period, maximum is $5.75/hour
of which we would be responsible for 30% which would be a cost to
us of $690.00 or we can use the stipend program at $30.00/week.
No one has contacted us regarding employment; however, should
we have someone this year who is interested and had a background
fitting our needs, I would ask for your approval to hire them
outlining the tasks we would have them working on. Entering this
agreement now merely qualifies us to become a part of the program
should we decide at some time to take advantage of it and budgeted
funds be available.
The agreement is the same as the agreements entered into in
--previous years.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Authorize proper City officials to enter into an agreement
for participation in Urban Corps Program between the City of
Minneapolis and the City of Shakopee for the period July 1,
1984 and June 30, 1985.
