MINUTES OF THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS
Shakopee, MN
March 21, 1990
Chairman Miller called the meeting to order at 5: 00 p.m. with the
following members present. Commissioners DuBois, Mars, Brandmire,
Miller, Pennington and Albinson present. Barry A. Stock, Assistant
City Administrator; Greg Voxland, Finance Director; Bud Berens and
Al DuBois were also present.
Albinson/Mars moved to approve the minutes of the February 21, 1990
meeting as kept. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Stock gave a brief economic development update. Mr. Stock
noted that to the best of his knowledge Northstar Auto Auction was
moving ahead with their relocation plans. He noted that Northstar
intended to build on the property just south of Valleyfair within
the Industrial Park.
Mr. Stock stated that he has completed a flyer advertising the
Rehab Grant Program. The flyer was distributed to the property
tenants within the B-3 Zoning District. The flyer was also mailed
directly to each of the property owners. Mr. Miller questioned
whether or not the CDC should be appointing a member of the
committee to serve on the Rehab Grant Program Review Team. Mr.
Stock responded in the affirmative. Mr. Miller suggested this item
be added on to the agenda under Other Business.
Mr. Stock stated that the final plat has been approved for Meadows
4th Addition (42 lots) and Hillwood Estates, a rural subdivision
containing 10 lots.
Mr. Voxland then gave a financial presentation on Tax Increment
Financing and Fiscal Disparities. Mr. Voxland noted that the
information presented was the same information presented to the
Shakopee City Council at their meeting last night. Mr. Voxland
reviewed some statistics for each of the Tax Increment Districts .
He noted the life remaining within each district and the bond final
maturity dates. Mr. Voxland noted that Bond Issues #7 , #8 and #10
were supported by all five TIF Districts. This meant that until
those bonds are paid off or defeased (money set aside in escrow to
pay off those bonds) legally the City Council could not close those
Tax Increment Financing Districts. Bond Issues #11 and #12 were
supported by TIF Districts #1 and #4 and Bond Issues #6 and #9 were
supported by the K-Mart District (No. 1) .
In summary Mr. Voxland noted that the total G.O. Outstanding Debt
is in excess of $12 , 000, 000. 00 . That means, if there is
insufficient tax increment to make the bond payments when due, the
City has agreed to levy taxes against the general tax base to make
those bond payments. Mr. Voxland noted that there was
approximately $5, 500, 000. 00 in special obligation debt. This means
Minutes of the Page - 2
Community Development Commission March 21, 1990
if there is not enough tax increment to make those bond payments,
the bond holders would be out of luck. The City or HRA would not
be obligated to make those payments. Mr. Voxland noted that as of
the end of the year there was approximately $50, 000, 000. 00 in debt
outstanding of which approximately $12 , 000, 000. 00 was G.O. Tax
Increment.
Mr. Voxland then explained the purposes of each of the Bond Issues.
He noted that Bond Issue #1 was for the K-Mart project, which
included the widening of County Rd. 83 , the construction of the
water tower and water services to the K-Mart site. District #2
(Senior High Rise) was for land write down and water system in Levy
Dr. District #3 refunded District #1. District #4 was for the
track land write down. District #5 was for the racetrack off site
improvements (4th Ave. , Shenandoah, 12th Ave. , Valley Park Drive
and County Rd. 83) . Bond Issue #6 refunded Bond Issue #5 . Bond
Issue #7 was the Shakopee Valley Motel Project which was used for
the Mebco Project. Bond Issue #8 was for the Holmes Basin Storm
Drainage and the 2nd Ave. parking lot and some engineering studies
for the 169 Bridge. Bond Issue #9 was for the downtown project.
Bond Issue #10 was for the Upper Valley Storm Drainage and some
more engineering studies for the 169 Bridge. Bond Issue #11 was
for the Southerly Bypass engineering and #12 was for the 169 Bridge
and Upper Valley Drainage-way.
Mr. Albinson noted that Tax Increment dollars were used to
construct off site Racetrack improvements, such as Shenandoah Dr.
and 12th Ave. He also noted that these projects were assessed. He
questioned where the assessment dollars would go when they were
paid off. Mr. Voxland stated that when the assessments for these
projects were paid, the funds would be placed in the City' s Capital
Improvement Fund. This fund could be used by the City Council to
build other roads or facilities. Mr. Albinson questioned what the
City had the Capital Improvement Fund dedicated for. Mr. Voxland
stated that the City does have a portion of the Capital Improvement
Fund dedicated for a new City Hall . He also noted that the fund is
restricted to Capital Projects of general benefit to the public.
Commissioner Albinson questioned how much of the fund was earmarked
for a City Hall . Mr. Voxland stated that the Council had earmarked
approximately $1, 000, 000. 00 of the fund for a City Hall . Mr.
Albinson stated that some of the assessments related to the
Racetrack off site improvements were now being paid off. He
estimated that the annual amount of assessments being paid off was
between $80, 000. 00 and $100, 000. 00. He questioned whether or not
the CDC could approach the City Council to see if those funds could
be earmarked for the City Hall project. Mr. Voxland noted that the
City Council has not earmarked any of the remaining funds for any
special project at this time. The remaining fund balance is un-
designated. He noted that Council could select to use the entire
amount for a City Hall if they wished. Commissioner Miller
Minutes of the Page - 3
Community Development Commission March 21, 1990
questioned the level of funding within the Capital Improvement
Fund. Mr. Voxland stated that there is approximately 2 . 5 million
dollars in the fund at this time. Mr. Miller requested Mr. Voxland
to explain why there were five years remaining in the Racetrack
District life when the Racetrack opened in 1985. Mr. Voxland noted
that the Racetrack District was a ten year district and the City
could select to capture eight years. The City selected to take the
last eight years of increment. Thereby realizing the maximum
amount of tax dollars generated based on the full completed value
of the Racetrack.
Mr. Voxland then shared with the Committee an analysis of the Tax
Increment Income Projections. He noted that the Income Projections
were based on pay ' 89 taxes which were fairly high. He noted that
the net Tax Increment Income collected through year 2005 would be
approximately $50, 000, 000. 00 assuming last years taxes. The Debt
Service to be paid off by the City during that time is
approximately $26, 000, 000. 00. He noted that if everything was to
be run out to the full life of the district, the fund balance would
be approximately $26, 000, 000. 00. Mr. Voxland noted that Council
would of course have the option to close out the districts earlier
if they so desired. Based on the income projections, all the bonds
could be paid off in payable ' 96 and a $1, 500, 000. 00 fund balance
would be left. Chairman Miller summarized the Tax Increment Income
Projections as follows: If the City selects to close the
districts, they could do so at the end of payable 1996 and still
accumulate a $1, 500, 000. 00 TIF trust. However, if the City wishes
to extend the districts to their full life, a TIF trust balance of
approximately $26, 000, 000. 00 would be generated. Mr. Voxland
stated that Mr. Miller was correct in his summation.
Mr. Voxland then stated that one of the issues the Council is
considering at this time is changing the Fiscal Disparities Option
on the Racetrack. He noted that if the Council decides to change
this option, it would not have any effect on the retirement of the
districts. They still could no longer be retired prior to payable
1996. However, by making the Fiscal Disparities Election, the
amount remaining in the TIF trust would be reduced from
$1, 500, 000. 00 to $18 , 000 . 00. Commissioner Miller questioned what
impact the change in Fiscal Disparities election would have on the
local taxpayer. Mr. Voxland stated that the change would equate to
approximately $35. 00 annual tax savings. Commissioner Miller
questioned the impact on a typical residential unit, assuming all
the bond issues are closed in 1996. Mr. Voxland stated that he has
not done a projection on that issue. Commissioner Miller
questioned if Mr Voxland could attempt to determine that amount for
the Committee' s information at their next meeting. Mr. Voxland
responded in the affirmative. Mr. Miller stated that Shakopee
taxpayers at this time are not seeing the full benefit of the Tax
Increment Projects because the taxes generated from those projects
Minutes of the Page - 4
Community Development Commission March 21, 1990
are being captured. He noted that Shakopee residents would see an
immediate tax benefit upon the closure of the remaining Tax
Increment Financing Districts. Mr. Miller also noted that Shakopee
taxpayers have received other benefits from the Tax Increment
Districts such as the debt retirement of projects from Tax
Increment dollars which would otherwise have been assessed to
abutting and affected property owners, projects such as the Upper
Valley Drainage-way, Holmes St. basin, Engineering studies for the
169 Bridge, Southerly Bypass, the Downtown Project, etc.
Discussion then ensued on why taxes might be higher in Shakopee as
compared to other communities in Scott County.
Mr. Stock requested Mr. Voxland to explain to the best of his
recollection why City Council elected to have the Fiscal
Disparities paid for by the property outside of the district. Mr.
Voxland stated that there were two primary reasons: 1. To
maximize the Tax Increment dollars coming in; and 2 . The City of
Shakopee has been traditionally a Fiscal Disparities looser. By
spreading the Fiscal Disparities portion out over all of Scott
County, it attempted to equalize the Fiscal Disparity imbalance
placed on Shakopee as opposed to the other Scott County
Communities. Areas outside of Shakopee are now paying
approximately 22% of the entire Fiscal Disparities portion. In
essence, areas outside of Shakopee are paying for 220 of every
dollar that is spent by the City on the 169 Bridge project and
other City projects.
Mr. Stock stated that the present Tax Increment Financing
Application Fee is $2 , 500 . 00. In light of recent state mandates
requiring the advertising of a map in conjunction with Public
Hearing Notice, the City' s cost of processing Tax Increment
Financing Applications has increased. Mr. Stock stated that staff
is proposing a policy based on actual costs incurred by the City.
Under the proposed policy an initial Application Fee of $5, 000. 00
would be submitted by the developer prior to the Public Hearing on
the proposed development project. If the project were not
approved, the developer would be reimbursed the application fee
less the actual costs incurred by the City. If processing costs
incurred by the City exceed the initial Application Fee amount, the
developer would be responsible for submitting the difference in
cost prior to formal execution of the Developer' s Agreement by the
City. Staff is also recommending that a provision be included in
the policy requiring the completion of the Tax Increment Financing
process within 12 months of the submittal of the initial Tax
Increment Financing Application fee. Commissioner DuBois asked
Commissioner Albinson if he felt that the proposed fee would deter
businesses from locating in Shakopee and utilizing our TIF policy.
Mr. Albinson responded in the negative. He felt that the proposed
policy was very reasonable and competitive with other cities.
o2
Minutes of the Page - 5
Community Development Commission March 21, 1990
Commissioner DuBois questioned whether or not the policy would be
for all Tax Increment Projects, including residential. Mr. Stock
responded in the affirmative.
Albinson/Mars moved to recommend to City Council that the Tax
Increment Financing Application Fee Schedule be approved as
proposed. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Stock shared with the Committee the problem the City of
Shakopee might incur in proceeding with the 5th Avenue street
improvement project. Presently, several lots are configured in
such a fashion that they may not be assessable. Staff is proposing
a new concept which would provide for the HRA' s acquisition of the
property and resale. Mr. Stock noted that this would allow the
City of Shakopee to levy the assessments associated with the street
improvement project to the property in question. Mr. Stock stated
that under a worst case scenario, the City would incur a minimal
loss or perhaps even a profit. Mr. Stock stated that the HRA could
subdivide the property on their own and sell the lots
independently. Commissioner DuBois stated that she felt the City
should simply acquire the large parcel and sell it on the open
market to a developer who can subdivide the property at a later
date. Commissioner Brandmire questioned whether or not the old
railroad right-of-way was being reserved for trail purposes. Mr.
Stock responded in the negative. Commissioner Brandmire then
questioned whether or not the property would revert to the abutting
property owners. Mr. Stock stated that the property is presently
owned by the railroad and is for sale. Several property owners
along the old railroad corridor have acquired the railroad
property.
Chairman Miller stated that one of the CDC ' s long term goals has
been to create senior housing. He questioned whether or not the 3
1/2 acres available on this site would be a suitable site for
senior housing. Mr. Stock questioned whether this was large enough
for a senior project. Commission DuBois stated that there was
other property to the south of the proposed 5th Avenue Project that
would be developed if 5th Avenue is constructed. She stated that
this project may be in jeopardy if the property to the north
cannot be assessed.
DuBois/Mars moved to recommend to the HRA that the 3 . 58 acres
located adjacent to the 5th Avenue Street Improvement Project be
acquired and that the property acquired be squared off and offered
for sale to a developer. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Stock then gave a report from the Downtown Committee on the
projects they are pursuing.
Commissioner Albinson then updated the Commission on the
Minutes of the Page - 6
Community Development Commission March 21, 1990
Transportation Coalition' s response to the state regarding the
Southerly Bypass. It was the consensus of the Committee that a
letter should be sent to Brad Larson from the Community Development
Commission restating the importance of the Southerly Bypass and the
bridges as they relate to the major intersections.
Mr. Miller then gave a status report of the Park Development
Subcommittee. He stated that he would like to change the meeting
of the next CDC Meeting to coincide with a presentation to the
Community Rec. Board. The proposed meeting would be Monday, April
23 , at 5: 30 P.M. The other Commissioners stated that they could
attend this meeting.
Jane DuBois gave a brief update on the status of the City Hall
Siting Subcommittee.
Mr. Stock stated that City officials were preparing a proposal to
Mr. Stans regarding his initial museum proposal .
Commissioner Miller asked if any member of the Commission was
interested in serving on the Rehab Grant Program Design Review
Team. Commissioner Brandmire volunteered to serve on the Review
Team.
Chairman Miller requested staff to send the CDC a reminder of the
Shakopee Showcase.
Albinson/Brandmire moved to adjourn the meeting at 6:45 P.M.
Motion carried unanimously.

Re: DNR Trail Alignment
Dear Ms. Henderson:
I would like to take a moment to remind you of the meeting that has
been set for April 26, 1990 at 1: 30 p.m. The purpose of the
meeting is to meet with both Murphy's Landing and DNR officials to
walk the proposed DNR trail alignment through Murphy's Landing.
I have been meeting with both the DNR officials and representatives
from Murphy' s Landing for the past two months in an attempt to
facilitate discussion so that the trail alignment through Murphy' s
Landing can be completed. I have been pleased with the cooperation
of both parties to date. I am also well aware of the concerns
expressed by both parties. My feeling at this time is that the
trail can be completed through Murphy' s Landing. I also believe
that the DNR can take several measures which will mitigate several
of the concerns that Murphy 's Landing officials have expressed.
It is my hope that following our meeting next week, the DNR
officials will be able to develop a new plan which will designate
the trail alignment through Murphy' s Landing and include mitigation
measures as well as trail enhancements that will not impose a
hardship on the operation of Murphy' s Landing. When the trail plan
has been completed by the DNR I fully expect that they will present
it to Murphy' s Landing Board for final review and consideration.
If after that time, Murphy' s Landing is opposed to the plan and has
valid concerns, I feel that the DNR will again attempt to mitigate
them. If the concerns cannot be substantiated by Murphy' s Landing
or a communication impasse is eminent, I feel that this matter will
have to be taken to the Shakopee City Council for their review and
action.
The Heart Of Progress Valley
AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER
I appreciate Murphy's Landing and the DNR's cooperation in this
matter and I look forward to meeting with you next week in an
attempt to facilitate the completion of the DNR trail through
Shakopee. I feel strongly that the trail can be completed in such
a fashion that will be beneficial to Murphy' s Landing, the DNR and
Shakopee residents.

Members Present : Mark Miller, Mike Pennington, Paulette Rislund,
and Steve Johnson.
Staff Present : Barry Stock and George Muenchow.
Miller requested that the Minutes of March 22 be expanded to

Wednesday, April 11, 1990
Chairperson DuBois called the meeting to order at 7 : 00 P.M. with
the following members present: Bud Berens, Bill Mars, Barry Stock,
Judy Case, Jon Albinson, and Joe Perusich. John Schmitt, Mary
Schmitt and Joe Zak were absent.
Albinson/Perusich moved to approve the minutes of the March 28 ,
1990 meeting as kept. Motion carried unanimously.
Chairperson DuBois stated that at the last meeting several
Committee members volunteered to contact other communities who have
recently constructed City Halls to obtain information regarding the
size and cost. Ms. DuBois stated that she did not have the
opportunity to contact Chaska but would do so prior to the next
meeting. Mr. Albinson stated that he has sent for the information
from the City of Champlin but has yet to receive it. Barry Stock
stated that he had obtained the information from the City of
Savage. Chairperson DuBois stated that she thought that John
Schmitt was going to check on the City Hall that was constructed in
Eagan. Bill Mars stated that he contacted the City of Lakeville
and they have not sent him the information requested. From a
conversation with the City Administrator he did learn that they
recently constructed a 2 . 5 million dollar City Hall within the
downtown area. The goal of the City Hall was to anchor the
downtown area. The building is approximately 27 , 000 sq. ft. and
has approximately 40 employees working there. Mr. Mars stated that
the City did try to pass a bond issue for the project but that it
failed. He thought some type of defeased bonds were used to pay
for the project. Lakeville is projecting a population of 25, 000 by
the year 2000 . Finally, Mr. Mars noted that the facility is
composed of simply City Hall uses. Ms. DuBois requested those
Committee members who had assignments to complete them prior to the
next meeting.
Discussion the ensued on the County Rd. 16 site. Mr. Stock noted
that he did obtain the condemnation award and appraisal report that
was completed for the Upper Valley Drainageway through this area.
He noted that the City of Shakopee paid approximately $33 , 000 . 00
per acre for the property. Mr. Stock noted that he was also aware
of a comparable land sale in the area that was approximately in the
range of $35, 000 . 00 per acre. He did note, however, that the site
that recently sold for $35, 000. 00 did have sewer and water in a
portion of the project. Commissioner Albinson stated that he felt
that the property that was for sale to the east of the drainageway
for $23 , 000. 00 per acre was a more realistic figure for property in
this area. He wondered if the condemnation award was high due to
the fact that the Upper Valley Drainageway cut up the property and
7
Minutes of the City Hall Page -2
Siting Subcommittee April 11, 1990
had an adverse effect on it' s future development.
Discussion ensued on the size of the site. Mr. Albinson suggested
that we propose a site and not a size. Mr. Mars stated that he
felt we should include the size of the site. Ms. Case stated that
she was concerned that if the Committee did not propose an area
large enough for the complex idea, she feared that the Council
would select a five acre site and all that it would be useful for
would be a City Hall . Mr Stock stated that Ms. Case ' s concern
related to one of the earlier positions taken by the Subcommittee
which stated that the Committee could see no reason to move the
City Hall outside of the downtown area unless a larger complex site
were considered.
Mr. Albinson stated that if we assume that acquisition for a block
in the downtown area is $1, 000, 000. 00 and if we assume that we can
acquire the property on County Rd. 16 for $30, 000. 00 per acre, you
could acquire 30 acres of property along County Rd. 16 as compared
to one block in the downtown area for the same price. It was the
consensus of the Committee that the land acquisition scenario as
stated by Mr. Albinson was justified in recommending that at least
a 30 acre site be recommended for acquisition if the City indeed
selects a site outside of the downtown area as their final site
selection choice.
Discussion then ensued on the interim use of the vacant property
associated with the 30 acre complex concept. Mr. Albinson stated
that the Comprehensive Plan does call for a park in this area and
that the vacant property would fill that need. It was the
consensus of the Committee that they did not have the expertise to
design a complex site but that 30-plus acres would provide for
future growth.
Mr. Mars suggested that the Committee attempt to list the pros and
cons of each site. The Committee then offered the following pros
for the Block 50 location:
1. Proximity to the institutional area.
2 . Site would strengthen the institutional area.
3 . Site would be in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan
direction.
4 . At the corner of two major collector streets (Fuller &
4th Ave. ) .
5 . Site would serve as an anchor for the downtown area.
6. Downtown site would enhance the image of the downtown
area.
7 . Site would provide rehabilitation of Block 50 .
8 . Site is ascetically favorable.
9 . Site may entice downtown retail development.
10 . Location would be a positive statement in favor of
7
Minutes of the City Hall Page -3
Siting Subcommittee April 11, 1990
downtown development.
11. Site could be designed in accordance with the downtown
area.
The following were listed as cons in the downtown area:
1. Limited expansion possibilities.
2 . Displacement of residential homes and families.
Discussion ensued on parking in the downtown area. It was the
consensus of the Committee that by acquiring one block, there would
be adequate parking available for a City Hall facility.
The Committee then listed the following pros for a 30-plus acre
site located north of County Rd. 16 and east of Marschall Rd. :
1 . Site would serve as a growth site for future municipal
needs: Community Center, Ice Arena, Police Station, etc.
2 . Good Highway access (4 lane County Rd. 16 - proximity to
stop light intersections. )
3 . Site may stimulate development of adjacent areas.
4 . Good interim uses available for vacant land.
5 . Site is located in the growing portion of the City.
The Committee then listed the following cons to the County Rd. 16
site:
1. Soil conditions.
2 . Negative public perception associated with financing a
complex concept plan.
3 . Site would not be in accordance with the Comprehensive
Plan direction.
Mr. Albinson suggested that if the Committee selects the large
complex site as it' s final choice, it should be sold to City
Council based on a dollar for dollar basis in terms of land that
could be acquired in the downtown area verses the amount of land
that could be acquired in the R-4 zoning district, north of County
Rd. 16 .
Mr. Perusich questioned what was the tax value of the two choices.
Mr. Stock stated that he could obtain this information for the
Committee' s consideration at their next meeting.
Discussion ensued on the process that should be followed in making
a recommendation to City Council . Mr. Stock stated that the City
Hall Siting Committee is a Subcommittee of the Community
Development Commission. Therefore, a recommendation would have to
first be made to the Community Development Commission. The
Community Development Commission would then have the option to
7
Minutes of the City Hall Page -4
Siting Subcommittee April 11, 1990
forward the Subcommittee' s recommendation to City Council , refine
the Subcommittee' s work and proposal or direct the Subcommittee to
do further research. The Community Development Commission is
responsible for making a final recommendation to the City Council .
Discussion ensued on whether or not the Committee should simply
suggest one site to the City Council or two alternatives. It was
the consensus of the Committee that one site should be recommended
to City Council . At that time, Council would have the option to
select the recommended site as the final site for a new City Hall
or the Council could choose to direct the Community Development
Commission to look at other sites or the Council could simply
select another site on their own accord. Finally, the council
could decide to drop the idea at this time. Mr. Perusich stated
that the City Hall Subcommittee and Community Development
Commission are simply advisory in nature. The City Council had the
final authority and say on this matter.
Ms. DuBois questioned whether or not another meeting should be held
to select a final site and formalize a presentation strategy. It
was the consensus of the Committee that an additional meeting was
needed. The Committee unanimously agreed that the next meeting
should be held on Wednesday, April 25th at 7 : 00 P.M. in the City
Council Chambers.
Mars/Albinson moved to adjourn the meeting at 9 : 00 P.M. Motion
carried unanimously.

Scott County has received Notice of Intent to Strike from AFSCME
Council 14, Local 2440. This unit may legally strike beginning
12:01 a.m. on April 30, 1990. While it is our sincere hope that
if a strike does occur, traffic in and around the Scott County
Courthouse will not be affected, nonetheless, we want you to be
informed of this possibility.
Your cooperation and understanding is greatly appreciated.
Please call me if you have any questions or concerns.

Dear Chamber Member: May 1 , 1990
BUILDING INSPECTIONS
The building departments construction season has started. A total of 70
permits have been issued to date. Twenty-four of these were for new homes .
In anticipation of interests rates dropping below 10%, most builders have
been holding off on their projects. However, it appears that this will not
happen soon, and may impact the number of units we normally build in
Shakopee.
FMG has broken ground on their ten million dollar facility. Our working
relationship and contact with this firm has been extremely positive. The
fire suppression system planned for this facility is "state of the art"
technology. To date, no other systems of this type have been installed in
Minnesota. Both the inspection department and fire service people will
surely find the installation of said system interesting and educational .
Jeanette Shaner, the building department secretary is half way through her
professional development program on her way to being what we hope is
reclassification to a permit specialist. Jeanette is taking night classes in
building inspection technology to better serve Shakopee residents using our
service. When her training is completed, she will be able to answer
technical code questions on one to four family dwellings and small commercial
projects. No longer will you need to wait until an inspector returns from
the field for an answer.
CITY CLERK
On April 17 , 1990 City Council approved liquor licenses for Canterbury
Concessions, Inc. who will be operating the food and beverage services at the
race track.
On April 17 , 1990 City Council accepted the resignation of Gene Foudray from
the Planning Commission with regrets. City Council is accepting applications
for openings on the Community Development Commission, Downtown Committee as
well as the Planning Commission. Anyone interested in more information about
a committee or desiring an application is asked to call city hall at 445-
3650.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
Downtown Planters - On Saturday May 19, 1990 the Shakopee Cub Scouts will be
planting the annuals in the flower pots within the downtown area. This has
become an annual Cub Scout Project.
Stans Proposal - On April 10, 1990 the Shakopee City Council directed staff
to inform the Stans Foundation that the City of Shakopee could not pursue a
museum proposal in Shakopee at this time. Council ' s primary concerns in not
proceeding with a project at this time stem from the uncertainty surrounding
the long term operating costs associated with such a facility.
On May 1, 1990 the Shakopee Community Development Commission and the Shakopee
Community Recreation Board will be making a recommendation to City Council
regarding the future organizational structure of the Recreation Department.
This action is being taken as a result of the Shakopee School Board' s
decision to discontinue the joint powers agreement for Community Recreation
effective December 31, 1990. The Community Development Commission and
Shakopee Community Recreation Board are both endorsing the creation of a
separate Park and Recreation Department under the authority of the City
Administrator. Additionally, the two bodies are jointly recommending that a
Park and Recreation Advisory Board be created to advise and make
recommendations to City Council on matters relating to the operation and
development of City parks and recreation programs.
PUBLIC WORKS/ENGINEERING
On April 10, 1990 bids were opened for Phase II of the Upper Valley Drainage
Project, which consists of constructing the remainder of the storm sewer from
4th Avenue to the Mill Pond. The low bidder was Richard Knutson, Inc. The
City Council will consider the bids and award the contract at its May 1, 1990
meeting, contingent on MnDOT' s concurrence of the bids.
The City Council held a public hearing to consider extending Bluff Avenue
from Naumkeg St. to Marschall Road on April 3 , 1990. At the conclusion of
the public hearing, the Council ordered the improvements.
Staff has recently received permission to advertise for bids for two
projects: Lewis St. Reconstruction and Killarney Hills. The bid opening for
these two projects is scheduled for May 8 , 1990.
The Park Division is currently installing new playground apparatus at Tahpah
Park which was donated by the Shakopee Jaycees.
SHAKOPEE COMMUNITY RECREATION (S.C.R. )
The City of Shakopee operates an outdoor municipal swimming pool during the
summer months which is located within Lions Park in the southwest quadrant of
the community. The pool has a sand bottom and beach so the feeling is that
you are at a lake even though it has all of the necessary features of a
complete filtration, chlorination, and re-circulation system. The pool will
open on a daily basis starting June 9 and will continue through August 19,
weather permitting. People have the choice of paying a fee entering the gate
or else purchasing a season pass at the S .C.R. Office, 129 Levee Drive. For
further information call 445-2742 .

I. ROLL CALL
Chairperson Kahleck called the meeting to order at 7 : 30 P.M.
Roll call taken as noted above.
II . APPROVAL OF AGENDA
Chairperson Kahleck asked for any additions to the agenda.
There were none and the agenda was approved as submitted.
III . APPROVAL OF MARCH 8 , 1990 MEETING MINUTES
Chairperson Kahleck noted that in item II APPROVAL OF AGENDA,
it was Joos who made the correction. Minutes passed as
amended.
IV. RECOGNITION BY BOARD OF ADJUSTMENTS AND APPEALS OF INTERESTED
CITIZENS
Chairperson Kahleck welcomed the audience and invited them to
feel free to speak on any issues on which they have concerns.
V. PUBLIC HEARING: RESOLUTION 589 . Request by Bauer Built for
a 52 square foot sign variance.
Stock presented a video view of the site. He explained that
the request was for a 52 ' variance from the 100 ' allowed by
code. Stock felt that there were no special conditions or
circumstances regarding the property and felt this would give
the applicant special privileges. There is no hardship
demonstrated and Staff would recommend denial .
Minutes of the Page - 2
Board of Adjustments and Appeals April 5, 1990
Kraft explained Robert' s Rules of Order and noted that even
though the Variance Resolution calls for approval of the
variance, it states that it would be denied. This is
consistent with the policy that motions should be made in the
affirmative.
Allen asked if the existing sign would stay in place and Stock
answered that it could.
Spurrier asked if the sign face could be changed. Stock
stated that if 50% of the sign was materially altered, it
could not be changed. This sign is painted on the surface of
the building. He added that the goal of the applicant was to
unify the signage on the property.
Chairperson Kahleck closed the public hearing.
Rockne/Christensen moved that the Board approve variance
request 589 denying a request by Bauer Built and Ziegler Inc.
to construct a sign on lot 1, block 1, Ziegler addition to
8000 State Highway 101. Motion passed unanimously.
VI. PUBLIC HEARING: RESOLUTION 590. Request by Carlson Real
Estate for variance on the landscaping requirements on the
property of Shakopee Town Square.
Chairperson Kahleck opened the public hearing.
Stock explained that Carlson Real Estate was requesting a
variance from the landscaping requirements. He went through
the site plan and explained that the applicant will do some
low level landscaping and berming. There is a 60 ' natural gas
easement in front of the property. However, there is room
between the easement and the parking lot to plant the trees.
He said there were some existing trees.
Rockne asked why the City had not added conditions to K-Mart ' s
recent request that included landscaping requirements. Mr.
Stock stated that when K-Mart' s building permit is reviewed
this condition for landscaping will be added.
Stock presented a video view of the site and explained that
there was room for more trees near the entrance and in the
detailed areas on the drawing. He noted that Staff was
recommending denial of the request since no physical hardship
was demonstrated, issuance of the variance would conflict with
the intent of the ordinance, and approval would grant a
special privilege to the applicant.
/ °
Minutes of the Page - 3
Board of Adjustments and Appeals April 5, 1990
Kraft noted that there was no latitude for Staff when the
ordinance states one tree every 50 ' .
Chris McGrath, representing Carlson Companies stated that they
were aware of the landscaping requirements when they
originally designed this project. She had noticed how few
other businesses in Shakopee have one tree every 50 ' . Since
this is the only major shopping mall in Shakopee, they would
like customers to be able to see the mall easily. They have
copied the idea of using sidewalks with grates and trees as in
downtown areas. She noted that there are 41 deciduous trees
in front of the building alone. She felt the gas easement and
the highway right-of-way were hardships. Since this is a very
flat piece of land, it is their desire to create interest.
She felt it would be very difficult to put another row of
trees in front of the project. An alternative would be to
relocate some of the trees, but this would be aesthetically
redundant. They are only asking for a change in the location
of the trees, not in the ordinance. Annual flowers would also
be planted - to create interest.
Spurrier asked why this issue was being addressed now. Why
wasn 't it addressed in the original building permit for the
mall?
Mr. Stock noted that the landscaping provision was adopted in
1985 and the Mall was constructed long before that.
Stock noted that the issue was 9 additional trees - the rest
of the applicant ' s plan is permitted.
Christensen felt that flexibility was needed in the ordinance
if the landscape plan of an applicant makes sense.
Kraft recommended that the request be tabled and the Board
direct Staff to come up with alternatives to amend Section 6
Subdivision 7B by the next meeting.
Rockne/Allen moved that the Board table action on Variance
request 590 until the next meeting. Motion passed 4-1 with
Kahleck opposed.
Kahleck said it was necessary to determine the intent of the
ordinance.
Spurrier/Rockne moved that the Board direct the Staff to
review City Code Section 11. 60 Subdivision 7B to determine if
some flexibility can be added to the existing ordinance.
Motion passed unanimously.
Minutes of the Page - 4
Board of Adjustments and Appeals April 5, 1990
Christensen said that encouragement should be given when
designers try to improve the beauty of Shakopee.
Kraft said that a tree every 50 ' is not necessarily
aesthetically pleasing.
Spurrier stated that he felt that a comprehensive policy is
too ambitious to accomplish next week. Maybe an interim
policy would be necessary.

IV. PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A REQUEST FOR CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT 591 ALLOWING A MINING AND EXTRACTION OPERATION AT
OUTLOT 1, WEINANDT 1ST ADDITION.
Stock explained that the request is to conduct a mining
operation on the property. The applicant is proposing to
remove approximately 4 , 400 cubic yards of dirt in Phase I .
There will be a phase II in 1991, and the applicant proposes
to remove an additional 5, 000 cubic yards of dirt at that
time. The permit will be valid for a three year period and
can be renewed. The nearest residential unit is 600 ft south
of the site. The proposed depth of the watering hole created
by this excavation would be from 7 to 17 feet. The mining
operation shall not be conducted closer than 30 ; to the right-
of-way line of any existing road or highway. No buildings are
proposed for the site. The mining operation shall not be
Minutes of the Page - 2
Shakopee Planning Commission April 5, 1990
allowed to interfere with surface water drainage beyond the
boundaries of the mining operation. There is a culvert under
County Road 17 . (Stock had checked with the DNR and they had
no objections as long as the actual culvert was not interfered
with. )
Christensen asked why mining operations were permitted in a
residential area. She felt this was a natural conflict.
Stock answered that it was permitted by Conditional Use Permit
in this area.
Kraft added that R-i is a large lot residential area. It is
a permitted use there.
Kahleck suggested that Christensen' s concerns be discussed at
the Comprehensive Plan Meeting in a couple of weeks.
Stock reviewed the findings of Staff:
1. Establishment of a Conditional Use Permit for
mining will not be injurious to use, enjoyment or
value of surrounding property.
2 . Such a permit will not impede the development of
the surrounding vacant property.
3 . Adequate utilities, access roads and drainage are
currently being provided.
4 . Adequate measures have/will be taken to provide
sufficient off street parking and loading space.
5. Adequate measures will/have been taken to prevent
or control potential nuisances and disturbances.
6. Proposed mining operation is consistent with
provisions set forth in Shakopee City Code.
7 . Proposed operation is consistent with purposes of
the code and will comply with standards set forth
in Section 11. 05, Sub. 7.
8 . Proposed use is consistent with the Comprehensive
Plan of the City.
9 . Additional traffic generated by the operation will
not cause congestion.
10. No business located nearby to be adversely
affected.

Minutes of the Page - 3
Shakopee Planning Commission April 5, 1990
Stock went on to review the conditions that would be placed on
the operation:
1. Conditional Use Permit and Mining Permit will be
reviewed annually.
2 . Fence or barrier (at least 4 ' high) will be
constructed to bar access.
3 . Road restrictions and maintenance be adhered to.
4 . Minimum setback shall be adhered to as determined
by code.
5. Any building proposed for the site shall require a
building permit and be located within the fenced
area.
6. Hours of operation shall be no longer than 7 A.M.
to 7 P.M.
7 . Dust control program for County Road 17 shall be
approved by City Engineer.
8 . Noise shall not exceed MPCA Standards.
9 . Any permanent stockpiles of material shall have an
erosion control fence.
10. Conditional Use Permit shall be contingent upon
City Council approval.
11. Acquisition of a County Road Access Permit. Mr.
Stock stated that this item could be deleted
because the applicant is proposing to use an
existing field entrance as the primary access.
12 . Permits may be reviewed prior to annual review if
complaints are received.
Allen asked how the impact could be determined on the natural
wetland area across the road.
Stock answered that a hydrologist from the DNR said there
should be no problem, if the conditions proposed are adhered
to.
Harry Weinandt of 1259 Maxine Circle came forward and said the
stock pond was needed, as four cattle had been lost the
previous summer. He is selling the dirt to pay for the cost
Minutes of the Page - 4
Shakopee Planning Commission April 5, 1990
of the excavation, and was told he needed a mining permit.
After a question from Spurrier on what additional areas needed
to be mined, Weinandt answered that he wanted that size pond
as proposed with a depth to the clay bottom.
Spurrier asked how the contour of the banks would be.
Weinandt stated that the slope would be 3-1.
Chairperson Kahleck closed the public hearing.
Spurrier felt that a 6-1 slope should extend at least 20 ' into
the water.
Kraft suggested that the slope be 6-1 for the first 10 ' .
After that, it could be 3-1 with final plan approval by the
City Engineer.
Christensen/Spurrier moved that the Commission approve the
slope of the watering hole to be 6-1 for the first 10 ' . After
that, it could be 3-1 with final plan approval by City
Engineer. This item to be added as Condition #11. Motion
passed 4-1 with Allen opposed.
Christensen/Rockne moved that the Commission approve permit
Resolution 591 as amended. Motion passed 4-1 with Allen
opposed.
V. ANNUAL REVIEW FOR CUP RESOLUTION 376 FOR SCOTT COUNTY
LUMBER/BERT NOTERMANN FOR MINING OPERATION ON COUNTY ROAD 83 .
Stock presented a video view of the area and explained that in
March of 1988, approval of Permit 376 had been granted by the
Commission and the Council had approved the resolution. This
is an annual review of that permit.
Stock listed the following report per Staff inspection of the
property and review of the conditions:
1 . Condition met.
2 . City Council approved the mineral Extraction and
Land Rehabilitation Permit.
3 . Condition met.
4 . Condition met.
5 . Condition met.
6 . Condition met.
7 . Condition met.
8 . No portable buildings presently existing on site.
9 . The City has received one recordable complaint
regarding the hours of operation.

dust.
11. The City has received two recordable noise
complaints.

14 . Condition met.
15 . Condition met.

18 . Condition met.

20. The number of complaints received do not warrant,
in the opinion of staff, a formal public hearing on
the Conditional Use Permit and Mining Operation.
He also presented a listing of the complaints that the
Shakopee Police Dept. had received on the mining operation.
He had determined through contact with the former City Planner
and engineer-coordinator that the complaints that each had
received have been minimal. He did not feel that the number
of complaints received warranted a public hearing on the
permit.
Kraft said that often complaints are anonymous, but when filed
with the police department, there is a print out.
Kahleck asked if people should call the police department so
complaints are recorded? What if 50 complaints are received
over a period of time, but not recorded?
Kraft answered that the complaints needed to be substantiated.
Spurrier said that citizens can remain anonymous when making
complaints on zoning matters and violations.
Tom Zwiers of 9390 267th St. W. came forward to speak on the
complaints. He gave an explanation for each complaint cited.
Allen said the diesel engines can be noisy and loud. He felt
there will continue to be complaints in the area.
Rockne asked if hours of operation could be clarified to
legally state what "operation" actually is limited to. He
felt this would be hard to determine.
Kahleck and Allen felt discussion on the hours of operation
would be valid.
Minutes of the Page - 6
Shakopee Planning Commission April 5, 1990
Christensen/Rockne moved that the Commission accept the
findings of Staff in regard to Conditional Use Permit 376 and
the Mineral Extraction and Land Rehabilitation Permit for the
Scott County Lumber Operation.
*Approval later in minutes.
Spurrier suggested that a public hearing on the matter of
defining what constitutes mining might be a good idea.
Christensen asked what was in the statute. She stated that
the Commission had decided what the hours of operation were to
be at their last meeting. If the applicant had any questions,
he should go to City Staff.
Kraft felt that the matter was a judgement call . It needs to
be determined if the spirit and intent of the ordinance are
complied with. If there are complaints, he said they will be
investigated.
Stock noted that the definition of mining states "extraction
of material" .
Allen felt that there were two issues involved here: 1. The
definition of mining. 2 . What are the hours of operation
limited to?
Bert Notermann of 812 E. County Road 78 came forward and
stated that all other mining operations are open from 7 - 7 .
Christensen stated that the hours of operation were not under
discussion here.
* Rockne asked the chair to call the question. Motion passed
unanimously.
Christensen added that she did not feel the hours of operation
should be discussed unless the item was listed on the agenda.
A legal opinion should be obtained or the Council should deal
with the question.
Allen said that since the Conditional Use needs to be reviewed
annually, it was appropriate that the Commission deal with the
question.
Christensen said she is concerned about mining in a
residential area. More time needs to be spent on the
Comprehensive Plan discussing that issue.
Kraft said that the ordinance says it is permitted as a
conditional use. It has been litigated at length.

VI. OTHER BUSINESS
A. Kahleck referred to the Public Hearing on April 19 and
asked what, if anything, should be discussed this evening
relative to the meeting.
Kraft said that several meetings can be held before any
recommendations are made.
Spurrier asked if there should be a press release to
stimulate interest.
Kraft answered that there will be a public notice in the
newspaper.
Kahleck directed Stock to check K-Mart Building permit
regarding landscaping.
B. Kahleck noted that she had attended a Planning Commission
seminar.
C. Spurrier noted that he liked the approach on considering
fine-tuning the ordinance where landscaping is involved
(for example, at the Mall) . It would be easier to grant
the variance, but better to fine-tune the ordinance.
Kahleck said she agreed, but also saw reasons to
disagree. She felt the Mall issue was more like a PUD.
Rockne felt that many ordinances on the books need fine-
tuning. He would like to allow Staff to use latitude in
making judgements.

MEMO TO: Dennis Kraft, City Administrator
(D91.)-121
FROM: Dave Hutton, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Status Update on Mn/DOT Projects
DATE: April 25, 1990
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND:
Staff would like to provide the City Council with an update on the
two Mn/DOT Projects: the Shakopee Bypass and the
Bridge/Minibypass.
T.H. 101 Shakopee Bypass (Southerly
Mn/DOT will be letting the contract for Phase I construction on
June 22 , 1990. This Phase consists of constructing two bridges at
the far east end of the project where the Bypass merges with
existing T.H. 101 east of C.R. 18 . Staff has received the final
plans for this phase of the project and the bid date has been
authorized by Mn/DOT' s Central Office. Construction should start
4-6 weeks after the bid letting.
The issue of local access to the Bypass via the County Roads has
still not been resolved. As you are aware, there will be no
interchanges or County Road Bridges initially due to the lack of
funding. Staff will attend another quarterly Bypass Coordination
Meeting on April 26, 1990 and will receive a further update on the
staging and funding. Staff can provide Council with a verbal
update on this meeting at the Council meeting.
T.H. 169 Bridge and Downtown Bypass
Staff has received the final plans from Mn/DOT for Phase I
construction of this project. This phase consists of constructing
the earth embankment on the north side of the Minnesota River. The
bid letting is scheduled for June 22 , 1990. Construction should
commence 4-6 weeks after that date.

I . CALL TO ORDER
Chairperson Kahleck called the meeting to order at 7 : 00 P.M.

II . INTRODUCTIONS
Chairperson Kahleck introduced members of the Planning
Commission, City Council Members, City Staff, Comprehensive
Plan Task Force Members and the Planning Consultant to those
in attendance.
III . CITY BOARD AND COMMISSION MEMBERSHIPS
Chairperson Kahleck explained that several committees are
currently in need of members and urged the citizens to take
part by serving on these committees.
IV. OVERVIEW OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING PROCESS
Chairperson Kahleck explained that the Comprehensive Plan Task
Force met and considered the plan. They then created the
document and sent it to the Planning Commission. It will be
refined and sent to the City Council, which will again refine
the plan before it is sent on to the Metropolitan Council .
These meetings are held to obtain input from the citizens to
help in the refinement process. The objective should be to
create the finest document possible. There is no deadline and
Minutes of the Comprehensive Plan Public Meeting Page -2
Shakopee Planning Commission April 19, 1990
the hearing can be continued. Kahleck urged the citizens to
come forth with their input and ideas in either a written or
oral format.
V. COMMUNITY TESTIMONY FORMAT
Chairperson Kahleck gave a brief explanation of the format for
community testimony and noted that persons who wished to speak
would need to sign up on the register at the back of the room.
The name and address of the speaker should be given for the
records, and questions should be addressed to the chairperson.
Comments should be kept positive and productive. Comments
from previous speakers should not be repeated, although
agreement can be expressed.
VI . PUBLIC HEARING
A. PRESENTATION OF THE DRAFT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
Bill Weber with Bennett, Ringrose, Wolsfeld Inc. (BRW) of
Minneapolis explained that eighteen months ago he had
started working with the Comprehensive Plan Task Force.
He said that both useful and critical public input was
needed. The City is like a business - it is in
competition in many area. Shakopee needs to take
advantage of the opportunities before it. It may be
Shakopee ' s turn to accept a wave of residential growth,
so a Comprehensive Plan is needed. He explained that a
Comprehensive Plan is made up of many components:
1. Land use
2 . Street System
3 . Park System
4 . Sewer System
5. Surface water drainage
6. Water System
7 . Image & Urban design
8 . Schools
9 . Municipal facilities
Two base maps of the City were on display and Weber
explained what each depicted. The Metropolitan Council
had done a population forecast and the Comprehensive Plan
Task Force had revised the forecast upwards due to
various considerations. They are forecasting
approximately 150 new households per year. Additional
residential land area will be needed and the area north
of the bypass seems to be the likely place. Weber
explained the various areas of Shakopee and the housing
density in each area. There will be residential growth
to the south and southeast. A major decision will need
to be made in the 1990 's concerning routing of sewer for
those areas.
U
Minutes of the Comprehensive Plan Public Meeting Page -3
Shakopee Planning Commission April 19, 1990
Weber identified the park areas that are in existence and
those that are planned for the future. He said that
commercial growth will be at traffic flow areas - the
interchange area. It will be important to maintain
traffic flow and appearances. Marschall Road and the
downtown area will be major areas of commercial growth.
He indicated residential, agricultural, and open areas on
the plan. Interchanges, main streets, and collector
streets were indicated on the map. Different standards
are set up for each different kind of street. Bicycle
trails are planned for the City.
Weber emphasized that sewer planning will be very
important for the City. During the 90 ' s two major sewer
projects will need to be constructed for the new
residential developments. A major trunk line along the
south side of the bypass and a diversion line into the
trunk line will be needed by the year 2000 . He felt some
areas of Jackson Township should be annexed to the City.
Regarding the watershed plan, the City will develop a
plan that is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. A
new zoning district should be created to protect the
wetlands.
Weber continued to say that the Image/Urban Design phase
of the plan had to do with tree planting along roads and
the City' s review of new commercial and industrial
growth. The plan suggests a possible location for the
City Hall near the Library. He felt that this location
created a viable civic statement. There is an alternate
proposal for locating the City Hall near the Public Works
Building.
Kahleck had questions on the exits on the southerly
bypass.
Weber explained that drivers will be able to get on and
off at Marschall Road. If one is going north on Adams,
you cannot turn west. There will be a full interchange
at Canterbury Drive.
Spurrier asked what watershed control development was in
the City.
Weber answered there were several: Lower Minnesota,
Prior Lake-Spring Lake, Sand Creek, and the proposed
onnew

submitted.
Dave Hutton explained that the 509 Plan was directed by
Minutes of the Comprehensive Plan Public Meeting Page -4
Shakopee Planning Commission April 19, 1990
the Legislature to all cities to make a comprehensive
plan.
Rockne asked what parks were in existence in Jackson and
Louisville Townships at this time for parks.
Weber answered that probably none were in existence.
B. BRIEF RECESS
A five minute recess from 7 : 55 to 8: 00 P.M. took place to
allow interested citizens to sign on the register in
order to speak to the Commission on the Comprehensive
Plan.
C. PUBLIC TESTIMONY
Gary Laurent of 2415 Lakeview Drive came forward and
explained that the southerly bypass construction was
scheduled to start in 1991. It should take two years and
there will be four lanes. Intersections are not included
in this stage. There is a question on how the
intersections will be treated at this time. He asked if
the land near the bypass would be held up for development
because of the sanitary trunk sewer and capacity problem.
Weber answered that he was fairly sure much can be
developed without the diversion. Before the turn of the
century, there will be a need for diversion.
Laurent asked about the street width - especially when
rebuilding existing streets. He would like to see a
policy on this. Public input is needed on the sidewalk
and trail issues.
Weber said streets sometimes are up to 40 - 44 ' in width.
Many think streets should be kept wider and there are
advantages to this, however, they do cost more and
increase traffic speeds. There is also increased run-off
and generated heat. Current plans state 32 - 36 ' in
width. Weber advocates 32 ' for the local streets, and
sidewalks should be included in the plan.
Judy Case said if the streets are narrower, a place will
be needed for biking and walking areas.
Spurrier noted that there is a difference between local,
collector, and arterial streets - the widths for each are
different. Narrower streets are suggested only for low
traffic volume streets.
Minutes of the Comprehensive Plan Public Meeting Page -5
Shakopee Planning Commission April 19, 1990
John Shardlow, consultant to Canterbury Business Park,
came forward and said that he appreciated the opportunity
to participate in the task force. He did note some items
in the draft that should be reviewed. Reference was made
to Scottland Company as owner - 50% of this interest in
Canterbury Business Park has been sold to North American
Life and Casualty. He asked that in the future,
references in the plan be replaced by referring to the
property, Canterbury Business Park. The business park
area to the north of the bypass is the "front door" to
the community. It does have an important image.
Shardlow did not believe that this designation was
necessary or appropriate for the area north of 12th
Avenue East. It could be aesthetically pleasing and at
the same time compatible with office and light industrial
uses. Only light industrial uses may be applicable for
aesthetic reasons, but it is important to preserve as
much flexibility as possible in the business park
district. (Letter attached)
Vicky King came forward and said that she represented the
County Road 18 Citizens Committee. She informed the
Commission that they were not in support of using County
Road 18 as a four lane or minor arterial . Now there are
traffic and speeding problems on 18 - there are 27
driveways and children in the area. There is
considerable platting already for home sites and much
revenue could be generated for the City of Shakopee.
Their study will be presented to the Commission on May 3 .
They support an extension of 21, saving the watershed,
and redesignate 18 as a collector street.
Joe and Muriel Koskovich of 3812 E. 4th Ave. spoke to the
Commission and noted that their property had been
designated as a RTD (Race Track District) . They would
rather not see this change and it limits their property' s
resale options. They believe it should remain I-1 or
light Industrial .
Chairperson Kahleck directed Weber to check into the
matter.
Regina Ward of Box 71, Shakopee came forward and said she
was involved in various organizations and projects in
Shakopee to help people with their concerns, especially
senior housing and nursing care. The City is not doing
anything in this specific area.

Shakopee Planning Commission April 19, 1990
Bob Turek asked that speakers indicate the property of
concern on the map for those unfamiliar with all areas of
the City.
Ione Theis said that she has heard the plans, but felt a
priority is how the City treats and plans for it ' s
citizens (elderly included) . There is a lack of
affordable housing for seniors who need to know they have
choices.
Lil Kopisca said the needs of the elderly are evident -
health care at present is pretty limited. Her church
members travel to sites miles away to visit friends who
were forced to go out of town for care. She suggested
that the $1, 000, 000 gift (offered to the City by Mr.
Stans) would be better used for senior care instead of a
museum.
Spurrier asked how the Comprehensive Plan can encourage
housing and health care.
Weber answered that Shakopee has a population of 12 , 000
people. There are limitations to smaller communities.
To adjust the health care may be impossible. On the
housing issue, the use of tax increment financing and
revenue bonds can be considered. The City will cooperate
with the County Housing Authority, which has more funds
and with the State Housing and Finance Agency. Both
health care and housing are national problems of huge
scope.
Kopisca asked if a new hospital were to be built, could
the old hospital be used for health care?
Elmer Otto of 1057 Eastview Circle said that when he came
here in 1987, he noted two things: 1. Traffic problems
(hopefully solved by this plan) 2 . Railroad runs through
the middle of town.
Jon Albinson of 1224 East Shakopee Avenue gave an
overview on his ideas: In reviewing the amount of
industrial land, although it may look like a lot now, it
is not as much as it seems. He felt Shakopee may be
limiting itself on future industrial land. This land
will be the most marketable over the next 3 - 6 years.
There is not much call for the type of development called
for in a Race Track District. The Commission and
citizens need to think more seriously about the amount of
land available for industrial development.

Barbara Boath of 1746 County Road 18 was concerned that
there was no buffer between their home and the light
industrial area nearby. Now, there are plans to put in
heavy commercial in the future. She did not agree with
this idea.
Vicky King said that one industry was given a Conditional
Use Permit and none of the conditions were met. Where is
the City' s clout? They only send letters.
Kahleck said that most Conditional Use Permits come up
for review on a regular basis - interested citizens need
to write letters to the City on these if there are
complaints.
Kraft said that land use problems are difficult to run
through the court system. Action can be taken, although
it is expensive.
Weber said that setbacks, fencing and landscaping are
addressed in the Comprehensive Plan.
John Schmitt said that the City can withhold the
occupancy permit until the requirements are met. This is
the time the City crossed the threshold to the refinement
stage for the plan. The first book deals mostly with
conditions and he agrees with most ideas,
but has
questions on some others. The population forecast should
consider a risk factor of 20% in either direction.
Regarding the retail area - this needs to be consolidated
and refined. He felt there was metropolitan market
exposure through Gardner Brothers, who were a draw for 90
homes over the past 2 years. There are other additions
as well. Golden Nugget Addition has 60 homes built in
the last 2 years. Schmitt said that when the schools
were built, the utilities were built for a building twice
the existing size. The only thing needed is more mortar
and brick. Regarding the Mall, there has been a lot of
changes there in the past 8 -12 months. First Avenue
area needs work in the Public Image area. The
Cotuny
Road 17 interchange represents the primary
ass
c meinal
entrance to the community as the byp goes
He
supports the office and business zone around the hospital
al
- however, the hospital may leave the area. If so,
jobs go too. Maybe there could be senior housing there.
Schmitt did not think the commercial area around the
Marschall Road interchange area was large enough. There
is a possibility of a shopping mall of 125, 000 sq. ft.
which would take 15 - 20 acres. He asked the citizens to
consider Eden Prairie, Burnsville, and Eagan. Possible
Minutes of the Comprehensive Plan Public Meeting Page -8
Shakopee Planning Commission April 19, 1990
businesses that could come in are: Target, Wallmart,
Fleet Farm, Menards, Cub, hospital complex, Court
Building, Fire Hall, practice range, auto dealers, gas
stations, fast food. He felt these projects would need
100 - 110 acres, nothing would be left for expansion once
single family residences have been established on either
side. Shakopee has only one chance to do the retailing
operation correctly.
Some of Schmitt's concerns included the interchange by
Canterbury Inn, and the entertainment industry: Raceway
Park, Canterbury Downs, Valleyfair. Additional
recreational facilities are being built today such as
water parks, golf courses, etc. Flexibility needs to be
built in the Comprehensive Plan so areas can eventually
be rezoned. Regarding parks and trails, the City could
benefit by taking another look at some areas. A roadway
could be run to the south of the high school and make
that property available to the public. He felt the
community was in deep need of trails. Why not give
developers the opportunity to work an integrated pathway
system - possibly internal? Pathways in the entire
community should be long term objectives. He asked about
sound standards in regard to placing single family homes
next to four lane highways. The federal government will
no longer build sound barriers.
Weber said the roadways will be depressed, so it may
lessen the problem. The FHA would want compliance with
the noise standard.
Schmitt said he supported narrower streets, but felt
adequate off street parking would be necessary.
Weber said narrower streets should keep traffic down, as
well as speed. It should discourage traffic.
Albinson said there were many vehicles on the streets
because often there are only single car garages.
Additional off-street parking is needed.
Spurrier asked what reinforces or facilitates the City in
being competitive in the market.
Weber answered that all phases and areas of the
Comprehensive Plan would make the City more competitive.
There are three markets in housing: 1. Start up, 2 . Move
up, 3 . Upper bracket.

Spurrier was concerned with Beta Seed Company and Weber
said that they can continue to operate in that location
until they decide to move or the area is rezoned. This
plan does not rezone - it just indicates how it should be
done.
Schmitt said he supported the downtown land use policies,
although a financial commitment from the City may be
necessary. He would like to encourage the Planning
Commission to rethink the Plan and make sure all the
ideas still fit.
Spurrier felt that the traffic signs should be uniform
and conform to traffic standards. He did not see this in
the plan.
Weber said that they did not get into that detail .
Ann Beckrich, who has a home on East Third Avenue, said
she would object to a City Hall across the street and
felt it would be better located by the bypass.
Chairperson Kahleck thanked all present for coming to the
meeting and closed the public hearing.
Public hearing closed at 9 : 27 P.M.
Commissioner Rockne accepted the position of temporary
vice-chairman until the full committee is present.
Commissioner Joos noted that this plan is only a general
plan and there is flexibility.
Commissioner Spurrier said that some elements are tied to
land use and there is a need to guide what Shakopee Does.
Kraft said a meeting would be needed to adjust the
Comprehensive Plan.
Rockne suggested an overlay map of proposed land use to
exiting zoning.

Re: Shakopee Comprehensive Plan
Dear Mr. Kraft:
As consultants to the owners of Canterbury Business Park in Shakop?e, we are pleased to see
the Shakopee Comprehensive Plan nearing completion. We were glad to be able to participate in
the Project Advisory Committee meetings leading up to preparation of the various drafts of the
document and to offer our comments and concerns along the way: With the Plan being
presented formally for a public hearing,we wanted to take this opportunity to offer our
comments on this final draft.
First, there are references in the Plan (pp. 4-11, 5-6) to the Scottland Companies, the developers
of Canterbury Business Park. Scottland has sold half of its interest in the Park to North
American Life and Casualty Company (NALAC),which now shares responsibility for development
decisions on Scottland's holdings in Shakopee. NALAC is currently negotiating to acquire 100%
ownership of Canterbury Business Park from Scottland. We ask, therefore, that references in the
Plan to Scottland be replaced by referring instead to the property, Canterbury Business Park.
This will avoid the confusion in future years of referring to a company which is no longer
involved with the property.
Related to this change in ownership is a change in approach. It is noted in the Plan that
Scottland has directed its attention to the racetrack and related uses, and slow growth in the
industrial park may have been the result. This is reflected in the low absorption rate for .
industrial land (p. 17-2). If the projected future demand for industrial land in Shakopee is
based on demand during the last few years, this may be misleading. With NALAC's ownership of
the Park, there will be a focus on expanded development of Canterbury Business Park. Together
with the improvements in transportation expected with the 101 Bypass, there may be an
increased demand for additional industrial land in Shakopee sooner than expected.
The Land Use Plan fur the Year 2010 (Figure 8b, p. 16-5) designates a portion of Canterbury
Business Park as BP, Business Park land use. We have two comments regarding this designation.
First, the owners of Canterbury Business Park are committed to developing quality projects in
the Park, especially along the 101 Bypass"front door" and recognize the need for zoning
Dennis Kraft 4/19/90 Page 2
standards to ensure high quality development. This is evidenced by the existing restrictive
covenants which are currently in place and by the actual development of the Park to date.
But we want to be sure that the permitted uses within this designation recognize and take
advantage of Shakopee's strengths, especially inexpensive land which will attract distribution and
manufacturing uses. While not strictly a market research document, the Comp Plan must clearly
recognize Shakopee's place in the metropolitan market. If the permitted uses in the Business
Park zone are too restrictive, the city may turn away prospective buyers of land-companies
that would become the future employers and employees of Shakopee.
The language in the Plan (p. 16-6) suggests that this land use should be"aesthetically compatible
with office development", but goes on to say only"certain"light industrial activities will be
permitted uses. Since the stated objective is visual aesthetics,we believe the main criteria for
the district should be aesthetics, and should not be overly restrictive concerning the internal use
of the buildings. We want to make sure that, once this land use is translated into a zoning
district, a full range of industrial uses will be allowed,permitting Shakopee to compete in
today's (and tomorrow's) market and to expand the business community in Shakopee.
The second point related to the Business Park land use is its location. We agree that the
frcntage on the 101 Bypass is appropriate for this designation to provide the high quality"front
door" along this corridor. However,we do not believe this designation•L necessary or
appropriate for the area north of 12th Avenue East. With appropriate performance standards in
the zoning ordinance for the Industrial zoning district,similar to those suggested for the Business
Park district, the area north of 12th Avenue East in Canterbury Park couldbe aesthetically
pleasing and compatible with future office and light industrial uses,while continuing to provide
for larger industrial uses.
We note that the area to the east of Canterbury Business Park along the 101 Bypass retains an
Industrial designation. This, too, is the front door to the community- in fact it will be seen
first by visitors from the north and east - and yet industrial is designated for this area. We
believe a smaller BP zone will give the City what it needs in terms of control over development
along'the 101 corridor while still allowing the developers in the Park to respond to market
conditions.
The future of Shakopee's economic development and the future of Canterbury Business Park are
intertwined. We appreciate the open process you have followed in preparing the Comprehensive
Plan, and look forward to working with you to refine the final document in the hope that it can
better reflect the concerns of Canterbury Business Park, one of the key players in Shakopee's
future.
Sincerely,

HRA NON-AGENDA INFO ITEMS
1 . Fifth Avenue Project - In accordance with the HRA' s action,
staff has requested Patchin Appraisals to complete the
property appraisal for the 5th Avenue Project. At the April
3 , 1990 meeting the HRA ordered an appraisal for the property
in question not to exceed $3 , 000. 00. Mr. Patchin expects to
complete the appraisal for the property by May 18, 1990. The
cost for the appraisal will be approximately $2 , 000 . 00 . Based
on Mr. Patchin' s preliminary review of the property, it
appears that the cost for the acquisition of the property will
be considerably less then projected by staff. A complete
staff report will be completed on this item for the HRA' s
review and consideration at their June meeting.
2 . At the April 3 , 1990 HRA meeting, discussion ensued on
utilizing the HRA reserve fund to purchase the railroad depot.
The authority requested staff to obtain cost estimates on the
depot and determine the feasibility of using the HRA reserve
fund or capital improvement fund for this project. The City
is currently in the process of obtaining an appraisal for the
railroad depot. The appraisal was ordered in conjunction with
the proposed 2nd Avenue street improvement project. Until
such time that the appraisal is completed, it would be
premature to conduct a feasibility analysis of acquiring the
depot and the alternative funding sources for said
acquisition. Staff is hopeful that the appraisal will be
completed prior to the June meeting. A complete report on
this subject will be submitted to the HRA when the appraisal
has been completed.
3 . On April 3 , 1990 the Chairperson of the HRA questioned whether
or not staff could provide the HRA with an inventory of
parcels owned by the City for possible sale. At that time,
staff responded in the affirmative. Staff' s response was
premised on the fact that several months ago the City intern
had completed said property inventory. However, we have been
unsuccessful in our attempt to locate the work of our previous
intern. It appears that the file has been misplaced or
misfiled. If we are unsuccessful in our attempt to locate the
file, staff will have to start from scratch on this project.
This is a difficult assignment when one considers the complex
legal descriptions and the large amount of property owned by
the City of Shakopee and the Shakopee HRA. Staff is hopeful
that the project can be completed for the HRA' s consideration
at their June meeting.
OFFICIAL PROCEEDINGS OF THE HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
REGULAR MEETING SHAKOPEE, MN APRIL 3 , 1990
Chairperson Vierling called the meeting to order at 7 : 02 p.m. with
Commissioners Wampach, Clay, Sweeney and Zak present. Also present
were Mayor Laurent; Dennis Kraft, City Administrator; Barry Stock,
Asst. City Administrator; David Hutton, City Engineer; and Julius
A. Coller II, City Attorney.
Sweeney/Clay moved to approve the minutes of March 6, 1990. Motion
carried unanimously.
Barry Stock reviewed the status of the 5th Avenue Project. He said
at the last meeting of the CDC they discussed the project and
pointed out that due to the irregular shaped parcels to the
property north of the proposed 5th avenue project that
approximately $85, 000 of the proposed street improvement project
costs would not be able to be assessed. They are asking that the
HRA consider purchasing the property, approximately 3 . 58 acres,
which would then enable the City to sell it on the open market as
one parcel which would then be assessable. There is $165, 000
remaining in the HRA balance which could be used for the funding of
this project. Comm. Sweeney asked how big the lots would be and
Barry Stock answered approximately 7 lots at 60 x 142 feet.
Discussion ensued on the possibility of the HRA obtaining the small
triangular shape parcel from the railroad. Mr. Stock stated that
he did not that the railroad would sell just a piece of their
property within the block. Comm. Vierling asked how the HRA would
replenish the fund if they purchased this parcel . Mr. Stock stated
that it would be replenished through the HRA mill levy.
Clay/Wampach moved to approve the acquisition concept plan and
authorize the appropriate City officials to order an appraisal , for
the property in question not to exceed $3 , 000 . Motion carried
unanimously.
Commissioner Wampach questioned whether or not HRA funds would be
needed for the depot acquisition. Mr. Stock stated that either the
HRA reserve fund or the Capital Improvement Fund (CIF) could be
used as a funding source. Chairperson Vierling requested staff to
obtain cost estimates on the depot and determine the feasibility of
using the HRA Reserve Fund or CIF for this project.
Chairperson Vierling questioned whether or not staff could provide
the HRA with an inventory of parcels owned by the City for possible
sale. Mr. Stock responded in the affirmative.

Lake. They will be including Deans Lake in their feasibility
report. Residents from the O' Dowd Lake area are interested in
having O 'Dowd Lake included in the study also. Valley Engineering
has indicated that O'Dowd Lake is not in their scope of services
but it could be explored at the City's expense for an estimated
cost of $1, 500 using their hourly rate schedule.
The estimated cost to run over to Prior Lake is around two million
dollars, the cost to run to O 'Dowd Lake is around $500, 000 . Cncl .
Vierling said she would be opposed to putting the burden of the
cost of the feasibility report on the tax payers. Cncl . Zak said
he feels the whole area will benefit from this pumping and he is in
favor of this project. Mayor Laurent asked if there was anyone
from the audience who wished to address this issue.
John Busch, resident of O ' Dowd Lake, said he has spoken to a few
other residents and they would like the Council to consider the
feasibility study and he feels a lot of people could benefit. Cncl .
Zak said he feels there are other issues involved in this issue and

Proceedings of the April 3 , 1990
City Council Page -3-
would like to bring in the watershed district to see if it is
feasible to recharge O ' Dowd Lake with reclaimed water.
Zak/Clay moved to table the Shiely Water Reclamation Project
(O' Dowd Lake) and have the City Engineer get more input from the
Watershed district, O ' Dowd Lake Association and Louisville
Township. Motion carried unanimously.
Discussion ensued on the request to install a street light on Tyler
Street between 12th Avenue and Vierling Drive. There has been a
severe vandalism problem in this area. The streets in this area
are approximately 900 feet between intersections. The City
Engineer has investigated the possibility of installing a street
light on Polk Street as well . The estimated cost for Tyler Street
is $1, 064 and the cost for Polk is $1, 016 . Cncl. Vierling asked if
the subject of spacing lights could be brought up before SPUC ' s
next meeting and brought back to council with a policy.
Vierling/Zak moved to have City Engineer and SPUC Manager meet bi-
monthly starting immediately. Motion carried unanimously.
Cncl . Sweeney had a concern on setting a precedent and was opposed
to the proposed funding. He feels that funds should be diverted
from the capital improvement fund to meet street light needs.
Sweeney/Vierling moved to have City Engineer determine cost of
installing street lights at those locations that he has identified
as needing street lights. Motion carried unanimously.
Sweeney/Wampach moved to have staff prepare the necessary
resolution to take the funds necessary to install these lights out
of capital improvement for the next agenda. Discussion ensued on
the possibility of having the affected property owners pay for the
street light. Consensus was to get a funding method put in place
before coming to a decision on further requests for street
lighting. Motion fails unanimously.
Mayor Laurent called a 10 minute recess at 9 : 10 p.m.
Mayor Laurent reconvened at 9 : 20 p.m.
Dennis Kraft reviewed the request for $50, 000 from the City by the
Minnesota Valley Restoration Project for the purpose of funding
part of the budget of Murphy' s Landing for 1990. The City entered
into an agreement with MVRP last year to commit $50, 000 for the
first year and $50, 000 for the consecutive two years. This is
their second request. Mr. Manahan, President, MVRP, addressed the
Council saying that the City' s commitment was for a program of
systematic inventory along with a museum professional on staff
which they are now in the process of doing. Cncl . Vierling asked
about the status of hiring a program director. Mr. Manahan replied
Proceedings of the April 3 , 1990
City Council Page -4-
that they are in the process of interviewing this week. Cncl.
Vierling also stated she would like to see a copy of the monthly
expenditure report. Cncl . Sweeney said that due to the possible
cuts the City may be faced with making in their budget he would be
in favor of giving Murphy' s Landing a partial portion of the
$50, 000 now instead of committing the whole $50, 000 . Discussion
ensued on the possible cuts the legislature will be making for the
funding of the City. There was a concern as to the City going back
on a commitment that they made to help fund Murphy' s Landing for a
period of three years at $50 , 000 each year.
Vierling/Zak moved to offer Resolution No. 3219 , Authorizing the
Payment of $50, 000 to Minnesota Valley Restoration Project Inc. as
Hereinafter Provided, and moved for its adoption. Motion fails
unanimously.
Vierling/Zak moved to reconsider and amend Resolution No. 3219 ,
authorizing the payment of up to $50, 000 to Minnesota Valley
Restoration Project Inc. after passage of this resolution. Motion
carried unanimously.
Sweeney/Zak moved to amend Resolution No. 3219 further by adding
the following language: to be paid as follows: $12 , 500 now and
$12 , 500 on June 30, 1990 and that subsequent payments be reviewed
at that time. Motion carried with Cncl. Wampach and Clay opposed.
Motion carried unanimously on Resolution No. 3219 as amended.
Clay/Vierling moved to approve the bills in the amount of
$164 , 244 . 85. Motion carried unanimously.
Discussion ensued on whether or not the City should pay GAB the
total $3 , 220 they are asking for doing a re-appraisal of the City ' s
Buildings due to their losing the current data during their recent
move. Consensus was since it was lost while they were moving that
the City should not have to pay the full $3 , 220.
Sweeney/Wampach moved to direct staff to negotiate a lower price
with GAB for doing a re-appraisal of the City' s buildings or find
a new vendor. Motion carried unanimously.
Vierling/Wampach moved to approve the applications and grant an "On
Sale" non intoxicating malt liquor license and a consumption and
display (set-up) license to Charles W. Fuller, 2400 Fourth Avenue
East, upon surrender of the existing licenses in the name of
Damile, Inc. (Motion approved under consent business) .
Vierling/Wampach moved to declare two fire hoses and excess sign
material as surplus and authorize the City Administrator to execute
the sale of these items. (Motion approved under consent business) .

Discussion ensued on whether or not the Council should continue
serving as the Board of Review. Dennis Kraft said a possibility
would be to advertise for preferably people that have some
knowledge in this area. Cncl . Vierling said she does not feel it
is necessary to hire a separate Board of Review since the Council
was automatically elected to the Board.
Clay/Zak moved to establish a Board of Review consisting of five
persons to function without pay and direct City Administrator to
initiate the advertising. Motion carried with Cncl . Sweeney and
Vierling opposed.
Vierling/Wampach moved to have copies of the 5-year capital
equipment list sent out to the councilmembers with a due date on
comments. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Hutton reviewed the plans and specifications for Lewis Street
between 4th and 10 Avenue. He said they would like to advertise
for bids. He said he still feels strongly that the sidewalk should
be ordered for the last block of Lewis Street. Cncl. Vierling said
she contacted about 75% of the residents in that block about the
sidewalk and they were all opposed. Cncl. Wampach said that he
feels it should be looked into further in the City' s comprehensive
plan.
Vierling/Zak moved to offer Resolution No. 3214 , A Resolution
Approving Plans and Specifications and Ordering Advertisement for
Bids for Lewis Street Between 4th Avenue and 10th Avenue and
Sommerville Street between Shakopee Avenue and 10th Avenue, Project
No. 1990-5 and moved for its adoption. Motion carried unanimously.
Clay/Wampach moved to add sidewalk as suggested in the 900 block to
be assessed to the property owners at a rate of 25% . Motion fails
with Cncl. Zak, Vierling, Sweeney and Wampach opposed.
Vierling/Wampach moved to offer Resolution No. 3217 , A Resolution

adoption. (Motion approved under consent business) .

April 16, 1990. Motion carried unanimously.
Vierling/Wampach moved to offer Resolution No. 3202 , A Resolution
Proclaiming April 22 , 1990, as Earth Day 1990, and moved for its
adoption. (Motion approved under consent business) .

Valley Mall 1st Addition (K-Mart Expansion) , Shakopee, Minnesota,
and moved for its adoption. (Motion approved under consent
business) .
Barry Stock reviewed the Stans Proposal made earlier this year to
construct a museum in Shakopee. He reviewed his concept proposal
to Mr. Stans. Consensus was to have Barry send a letter to Mr.
Stans informing him that the City is still investigating other
possibilities to his proposal.
Zak/Vierling moved to table the Stans proposal. Motion carried
unanimously.
Mayor Laurent asked if anyone from Council wishes to serve on the
Association of Metropolitan Municipalities Board of Directors. No
interest was expressed by Council.
Discussion ensued on possible nominations to the Transportation
Officials Advisory Committee. Consensus was to have Mayor Laurent
contact Eldon Reinke to see if he is interested in serving.
Discussion ensued on the curb cut in alley between Scott and Fuller
on 10th Avenue. Dave Hutton said it would cost $100 to $200 to
repair. He said he feels that it is not the City' s responsibility
because several alleys are the same and the City did not create the
problem. Consensus was to do nothing at this point and to place
this on the agenda for further consideration with estimates.
Mayor Laurent adjourned the meeting at 11: 30 p.m.

League of Minnesota Cities which are currently seeking new members.
Any Councilmember interested is to notify him.
Cncl . Wampach asked the council to hear what Herb Dallmann has to
say about the assessment on his alley. Mayor Laurent said this was
a judgment call and a hard decision for the Council to make. The
City Engineer said he had discussed this issue with Mrs. Dallmann.
The two options for assessment were front lot and per lot
assessments. The Council decided to go with a per lot assessment
at the public hearing when the improvement was ordered.
Mr. Herb Dallmann, 320 East 7th, addressed the Council saying he
feels that assessing per lot is very unfair for him since he has
only 60 front feet of property and is being assessed for property
he does not even use.
Proceedings of the April 17, 1990
City Council Page -2-
Charles Luebke, 317 E. 8th Avenue, said he also feels it is very
unfair to assess per lot instead of per foot the way it should be.
He said he does not even drive a car and does not even use the
alley.
Roland Johnson, 726 Spencer Street, said he has an entrance to his
driveway from the alley which he hardly ever used in the 40 years
he lived there and he was in favor of paving the alley and paying
his share.
Discussion ensued on the letter received from Jeffrey Peterson,
Dept. of Corrections, requesting a local governmental agency to
host a secretarial contract for the hiring of a 1/2 time clerk
typist I. They would reimburse the agency 100% for the salary.
They have the money but do not have the position available through
the State. There was a number of concerns brought up by
Councilmembers on liability for the employee under workmen' s comp
and insurance liability.
Sweeney/Clay moved to authorize the City Administrator to enter
into a contract with the Mn Dept. of Corrections. Motion fails
unanimously.
Wampach/Clay moved to concur with City policy and direct staff to

submit the revised proposal concept to Mr. Stans and the Stans
foundation for further consideration. Discussion followed with

he could not see the benefit to the City. Cncl . Wampach said he
feels the City should not be in the museum business. Motion failed
unanimously.
Cncl . Vierling mentioned that maybe in could be suggested to Mr.
Stans to pursue something with Murphy's Landing.
Vierling/Sweeney moved to inform Mr. Stans and the Stans Foundation
that the City of Shakopee cannot proceed with a museum project at

Fire Chief is requesting that that amount come from a $7, 000
budgeted item which was for hazardous material suits which were
donated to the Fire Department. Fire Chief Ries was present and
addressed the council on this issue. He said they are not asking
for any additional money just money to be transferred. Cncl . Clay
said that there have been numerous donations made by companies and
if the City does not also contribute that it may hinder other
companies as doing so in the future. Cncl. Sweeney said he would
like justification as to why this would have to be purchased this
year and would be in favor of tabling his item. Mr. Ries responded
by saying he feels the City' s grass rig is very detrimental in

Dave Hutton reviewed the Shiely Project. He said they are trying
to come up with an approximate cost of pumping water from Shiely to

spend the $1500 to add the O' Dowd Lake area to the feasibility
report. He said he will bring this item back in 2 weeks when they

The deadline date for applications was set for April 20 . Their

appropriate Resolution prepared. Motion carried unanimously.
Dennis Kraft said the City has made a commitment to the Minn. Dept.
of Transportation in the amount of $1, 900, 000 for the 169 bridge
project. The legislature in its 1989 session proposed a cutoff
date of April 8 , 1990 for issuing bonds supported by the older in
place TIF districts, and as a result the city sold bonds late last
year for this project. MnDOT is not in a position to accept the
funds yet and we would like to get the money to them. The City
Engineer said they cannot accept money from communities until they
have a contract for the project. The City is now working on an
agreement with MnDOT so they can accept the money from the City.
Cncl. Wampach asked if the time table was on track. The City
Engineer replied that there has been no big delay.
The City Engineer reviewed the Heritage Place 2nd Addition
Watermain issue. He said the developer was required to make a
sewer and water crossing at Ruby and Vierling Drive as part of the
street improvements for this subdivision. As part of the
Developer' s Agreement for this plat, this watermain crossing was
also included with the Vierling Drive watermain project, and the
City will be collecting assessments on it when the building permits
are issued. The developer installed the watermain initially and
paid for it on his own accord. He is now requesting reimbursement
for his original watermain crossing costs which amount to
$7 , 591. 00 . This will not amount to any net loss to the City of
Shakopee.
Wampach/Vierling moved to direct the appropriate City staff to
reimburse Heritage Development Inc. a total amount of $7 , 591. 50 for
the watermain crossing at Ruby Lane and Vierling Drive. Motion
carried unanimously.

Cncl . Wampach said he has a concern on the number of trees being
taken down on Lewis Street. The City Engineer said the amount of
trees that will be removed are four from the entire project. Two
of which are almost directly on the sidewalk. He said there will
be a neighborhood meeting with the contractor for any questions
that residents may have. Cncl. Clay asked about the possibility of
curving a sidewalk around a tree to enable the City to keep the
trees. The City Engineer said that part of the problem is that
some trees are already encroaching onto the sidewalk with their
roots. The City is trying to keep as many trees as possible. The
City Engineer invited any Councilmember interested to meet with him
at the site.
Mayor Laurent called a recess for the Executive Session at 9 : 30
p.m.
Mayor Laurent reconvened the Council meeting at 11: 03 p.m.

Dear Mr . Stock:
In the dissolution matter of the Joint Powers Agreement I am
unconvinced that the participants in the Community Rec program
and this community are being satisfactorily served by the failure
of the proposed resolution discussed and approved at last night' s
meeting of the CDC and Recreation Board to provide continuity of
program and policy. I voiced this concern at the meeting as did
Mr . Johnson and was told by you that to include such a statement
would tie the hands of a new board in setting policy.
Although it is true that the first order of business of the
new advisory board could be to recommend that the policies be
adopted , it is also true that the City Council could make an
initial statement adopting the current recreation program,
policies and procedures as are now in place in conjunction with
the resolution . This in the long run would save considerable
expense of staff time in reviewing and reconstructing a new set
of recreation policies with an inexperienced board . Acceptance
and adoption of the current system by the Council would allow for
a guarantee to the users and to the staff of continuity and a
smooth transition while still leaving open the opportunity for
the new advisory board to suggest changes to those policies over
a period of months or years. Furthermore , to do so would be a
vote of confidence and appreciation to those volunteers who have
given time over the last thirty-five years in helping to develop
the current recreation policies . They appear to be working very
satisfactorily and successfully.
In the eagerness and concern of the sub-committee in
reorganizing the existing departmental and staffing structure , I
believe this important step has been overlooked and treated much
too indifferently.

TO: MAYOR LAURENT AND SHAKOPEE CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS
FROM: BILL PREISS, SHAKOPEE YOUTH BASEBALL/SOFTBALL ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT
SUBJECT: FUTURE CONCERNS OF RECREATIONAL SERVICES & FACILITIES
Dear Mayor Laurent and City Council Members:
As a resident of the City of Shakopee, a parent, and the Co-Chair of
the Shakopee Youth Sports Coalition, I would like to bring to your attention
a concern that many residents of our community have regarding the future
of recreation programs, facilities and services.
The Shakopee Youth Sports Coalition is a non profit organization made
up of two representatives from four youth athletic associations. They include
the Shakopee Youth Baseball/Softball Association, the Shakopee Basketball
Association, the Shakopee Youth Football Association, and the Shakopee Mat
Cub. The purpose of this organization is to raise funds for its programs
within the Shakopee community.
As a collective group, we served over 1,200 children in our programs
in 1989.
We have over 300 volunteers putting in many hours coaching, running
concessions, officiating and transporting kids to their games.
In the last four years, the member organizations of the Shakopee Youth
sports Coalition have raised and donated to the community over$57,396.00.
See addendum attached.
Our youth athletic associations are concerned about the raising cost
of running these programs and may not, in the future, be able to continue
at the level of its present financial participation. We are concerned about
the possible loss of support services we have received from Shakopee Community
Recreation.
We want to encourage the City fathers to continue its efforts to provide
a quality environment for recreation. This can be accomplished by maintaining
the same level of good service Shakopee Community Recreation now provides.

FROM: DAVE HUTTON, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR/ C %-
SUBJECT: SEWER BACKUP AT JOHN NELSON PROPERTY
DATE: MARCH 30, 1990
I received a phone call today at City Hall at approximately
9:15 a.ri. from John Nelson regarding a sewer back up at his
ap:: rtr;lent building at Shakopee Ave. and C.R. 17 (Northwest
corner) .
John asked if it could be a City sewer problem. I told him
it may or may not be our sewer, but that I doubted it since we
had recently cleaned out this sewer within the last year. He
asked if I could check it out. I told him I would send someone
right up.
I called Harry on the radio. He said he would go right out
and look at it with Joe. They were out there by 9:30.
John Nelson then called me back at Public Works around 9:35
- 9:40. He stated that it was the City's problem and asked what
I was going to do about it. I stated that my crew was up there
right now cleaning out the sewer.
He then demanded that I come up to document all the damage.
I stated that he should document the damage himself and also keep
any receipts of expenditures to turn in to the insurance company.
I then stated that I would get someone up there to look at the
damage, but that it may not be myself since I was fairly busy.
I then called John DeLacey at Engineering and told him to
get the camcorder, pick me up at Public Works and we'd both take
a look at it. John and I were up there by 9:45.
Harry and Joe were trying to jet out the sewer. It was
plugged at the manhole on Shakopee Ave. just east of C.R. 17. We
later found out that a board had gotten jammed in the pipe and
was blocking the flow.
Upon inspection of the basement, all of the water had
already been cleared up. The carpet and floor in the apartments
were damp, though. Nelson indicated that there was 3" of water
on the floors at one time.
Nelson also indicated that he talked to Karkanen at 8:00a.m.
this morning. I asked him if he had reported a sewer claim then.
He said no.
I later asked Jim what they talked about. Jim indicated
that Nelson came down here asking if we had any pumps he could
use and also the names of contractors for rodding out his service
line. According to Jim, Nelson immediately left after this brief
discussion. Jim indicated that Nelson did not indicate he had a
sewer backup.
The actual problem in the line was a 1"x3"x21" board that
got hung up on an offset joint. The offset joint is located at
the first joint on the "T' pipe from the drop. The offset was
about 1"-2". There was also quite a grease buildup.
Harry and I will be contacting Al Reiback to dig up and
correct the offset joint. This will not be able to be repaired
until the asphalt plants open in early May.
This offset joint in this pipe is no worse than many other
clay sewers in Shakopee that need replacing with PVC pipe. These
sewers are normally replaced at the time the streets are
reconstructed and the entire line is replaced. If this board had
not gotten hung up, this sewer would still have functioned
properly.
Due to the sewer back up occurring though, I will be
scheduling the repairs on this one joint as soon as construction
permits.

y A Dear Mr. Nelson:
Following our telephone conversation I followed up with the city
in regards to the sewer backup at the rental property you own at
1307 Shakopee Avenue.
I was informed by the city engineer that city employees found a
2 x 4 in the city line which was causing the blockage. He said
it was most likely from a construction area approximately 4 or 5
blocks from your rental property. He said he would not doubt if
some kids had probably put it in there.
The wood blockage was confirmed in our telephone conversation.
In order to pay for any claim under the city's insurance policy
I must first have liability on their part. Since they were not
responsible for putting the 2 x 4 in their line and had no way
of knowing that it had been put there, I do not feel that they
could be held responsible. You may have a claim against the
contractor who was apparently doing the building but not against
the city. I must respectfully deny your claim in its entirety.
Sincerely,
Thomas M. Felcyn

ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY NO. 50 c ri oz ati°n' �II c „1
Subject: Bodily Injury or Property Damage - Will the City pay the Bill
Dated Adopted: 7/5/88
City Council Info Item 10/4/88
Source of Authority: City Council
The City of Shakopee like all businesses carries insurance
to cover citizens who are injured or who own property which is
damaged when the incident is the fault of the City. The City's
insurance policy requires that the ' insurance company shall
determine if the City is at fault. In order to conclude that the
City is at fault, the insurance company/adjuster must determine
that the City has been negligent.
If you believe that you have been injured or have received
property damage because of the negligence of the City, please
follow these guidelines adopted by the City Council :
1) Contact your own insurance company - homeowners, car,
or health, depending on the situation.
2) If you or your insurance company believe the City is at
fault, contact the City's insurance company, Sue
Sichmeller of Capesius Agency, 129 Holmes Street, 445-
1922 . [If the injury/damage is a result of a
construction project, the contractor's carrier should
be contacted. Call the City Clerk to learn the name of
the carrier. ]
3) If the issue is not resolved by the insurance
company/adjuster to your satisfaction, you are
"encouraged" to recontact Sue at 445-1922 and/or seek
relief from the courts. District Court, or Small
Claims Court (Small Claims Court has a $17 . 00 filing
fee and prohibits use of an attorney. The amount of
the claim must be under $2 , 000. 00) . This is the
procedure the Shakopee City Council wishes to use so
that a disinterested third party can decide who should
pay for the injury or damage.
4) City Council has designated the City Clerk as staff
coordinator for citizens claims. Councilmembers thus
do not individually get involved in claims.
NO CITY EMPLOYEE HAS ANY AUTHORITY TO IMPLY TO YOU THAT THE
CITY MIGHT PAY THE BILL OR THAT THE MATTER WILL GO TO THE
CITY COUNCIL FOR A DECISION.

RE: Subdivision Approval for the Plat
of Canterbury Park 3rd Addition
Dear Dennis:
In December of 1989, we requested a 90-day extension for the
filing of the above-referenced plat. On December 19, 1989
the City Council for the City of Shakopee passed a motion
granting this extension. Scottland Inc. , the owner of the
land which is a part of this plat, is currently operating
under a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy. At the time of the request,
we believed the extension would accommodate the time
necessary to work through the complex issues surrounding
this plat as it relates to the bankruptcy proceedings. To
date, we have been unable to resolve these problems, and
therefore request an additional extension of time in which
to file the plat of Canterbury Park 3rd Addition. After
consulting with Scottland's bankruptcy attorneys, we believe
the items that need to be resolved for us to file the plat
of Canterbury Park 3rd Addition will be addressed within the
next 90 days.
We therefore respectfully request the Council give
consideration to granting an additional 90 days in which to
file the plat of Canterbury Park 3rd Addition. We apologize
for any inconvenience this request may cause the City of
Shakopee. The ability to accomplish "business as usual"
while operating under a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy is more
limiting than we had earlier believed.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

INTRODUCTION:
The City has received a request from Valley Industrial Realty to
extend by 90 days, the 180 day time period for filing of a Final
Plat after approval of the plat by the City Council. The City Code
states that if a plat is not filed within 180 days after approval
by the Council, the Council may rescind it' s approval.
BACKGROUND:
On June 20, 1989, the City Council approved the Final Plat for
Canterbury Park 3rd Addition. City Code Section 12 . 03 , Subd. 4F
states "If the plat is not filed within 180 days after approval by
the Council, the Council may rescind it' s approval and shall notify
the Scott County Recorder/Register of Titles" .
Although the City Code does not list criteria for determining
whether the time period for recording of a plat should be extended,
in the past, the City has made the determination on the basis of
whether changes have occurred, relating to the plat, which may
necessitate the City reviewing the plat again. The City Staff is
not aware of any changes that have occurred in the area of the
proposed plat that would necessitate a new review and approval of
the plat by the City at this time.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. The City Council can pass a motion extending, by an initial
90 days, the 180 day time period for recording of the
Canterbury Park 3rd Addition Final Plat.
2 . The City Council can pass a motion extending, by a different
period of time, the 180 day time period for recording of the
Canterbury Park 3rd Addition Final Plat.
3 . The City Council can pass a motion to not extend the time
period for the developer to file 180 day time period for
filing of the Final Plat for Canterbury Park 3rd Addition and
require the developer to resubmit the plat for re-approval by
the City.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative #1.
ACTION REOUESTED:
Pass a motion granting the developer of Canterbury Park 3rd
Addition an additional 90 days to file the Final Plat with the
County.

MEMO TO: Dennis R. Kraft, City Administrator
FROM: Barry A. Stock, Assistant City Administrator
RE: Proposed Park Department Organizational Structure
DATE: April 24, 1990
INTRODUCTION:
Since February a Subcommittee of the Community Development
Commission has been reviewing alterative organizational structures
for the Recreation Department. This action was taken as a result
of the Shakopee Board of Education' s decision to discontinue the
Joint Powers Agreement for Community Recreation, effective December
31, 1990.
The purpose of the Subcommittee was not to resolve policy,
procedural or budgetary issues as they relate to park development
and recreation programming. The intent of the Subcommittee was to
have policy and procedure considered and discussed by the newly
formed board. On April 12 , 1990 the Subcommittee unanimously
endorsed an organizational structure creating a Park and Recreation
Department and resolution establishing a Park and Recreation
Advisory Board. (See attachment #1) The proposed resolution sets
forth the perimeters and areas of responsibilities of the new Park
and Recreation Advisory Board. Shown in attachment #2 is an
organizational flow chart which illustrates how the proposed Park
and Recreation Department and Park and Recreation Advisory Board
would fit into the City' s existing organizational structure.
BACKGROUND:
Shakopee Community Recreation was created in 1954 , through a joint
effort between the Shakopee Schools and the City of Shakopee. The
Shakopee Community Recreation Board was established as a quasi
independent agency. The Board has the authority to establish
policy and oversee the general operation of this agency. This is
accomplished through a working relationship between the Shakopee
Public Schools and the City of Shakopee. These two bodies provide
both facilities and financial support.
Organizational Structure and Responsibilities
Prior to investigating alternative organizational structures for
the Park and Recreation Advisory Board the Park Development
Subcommittee felt it was important to review the existing
organizational structure and the existing responsibilities of both
the Board and staff. Following this review, the Park Development
Subcommittee decided that each of the following areas of
responsibility should be a function of the new Park Advisory Board
with the understanding that the new Board would be advisory in
nature:
1
/ 3
1. Land Acquisition
2 . Park Dedication Fees
3 . Facility Development
4 . Capital Improvement Programming
5. Grants and Contributions
6. Networking
7. Policy Development
8 . Facility and Activity Scheduling
9 . Recreation Programming
10. Program Fees and Operating Budget
The Subcommittee felt that the following items should be
coordinated between the Public Works Director and Park Director:
1. Maintenance
2 . Landscape Design
3 . Forestry
Alternative Organizational Structures
The Park Development Subcommittee reviewed the following six
alternative organizational structures:
1. Add a Park and Recreation Department to the City' s
current organizational structure with Park Maintenance to
continue under Public Works.
2 . Park and Recreation Administered under Public Works.
3 . Add a combined park and recreation division to the
City's current organizational structure which would
include Park Maintenance.
4 . City withdraw from administering recreation programs.
5. Joint Powers Agreement with neighboring communities.
6. Community Education, Recreational Programming and Park
Maintenance under one joint powers department.
From this list, the Park Development Subcommittee narrowed the
options down to alternatives #1, #2 and #3 .
Representatives from the Park Development Subcommittee then met
with both the Public Works Director and Park Maintenance crew to
gather input regarding their thoughts on the present organizational
structure and any future structure. Both parties independently
agreed that under the current circumstances they preferred to have
the City of Shakopee create a separate Park and Recreation Dept.
with Park Maintenance continuing under the supervision of the
Public Works Director. They did however see a need for the
development of communication methods between the Park Maintenance
crew and the Park and Recreation Director.
The Subcommittee then evaluated each of the three options,
2
/ 3
selecting the first alternative as their preferred organizational
structure.
Enabling Resolution Development
At this point in the process, the Park Development Subcommittee
attempted to obtain enabling resolutions from other communities
that have created Park Advisory Boards. The subcommittee used the
information gathered to develop the proposed resolution. The
resolution specifies the composition of the proposed Park and
Recreation Advisory Board as well as it' s areas of responsibility.
Community Development Committee/Community Recreation Board Joint
Meeting
On April 23 , 1990 the Community Development Commission (CDC) and
Community Recreation Board (CRB) met in a joint meeting for a
presentation on the proposed organizational structure and
resolution. Following the presentation, each body met individually
to discuss and act on the information presented.
The two bodies concurred on their findings and are recommending to
City Council the following action:
1. That the City Code be amended creating a Park and
Recreation Advisory Board in accordance with the terms
and conditions set forth in the Resolution. (Attachment
#1)
2 . That a new Park and Recreation Department be created with
the understanding that:
a. The current responsibilities of recreation
program planning and management be continued
and led by a Director having department head
responsibilities on a par with other heads of
departments within the City' s organizational
structure.
b. Park and Recreation functions be coordinated
and administered by this department in concert
with the other appropriate planning boards,
committees, and personnel within the City
structure.
c. Park Maintenance & Forestry shall remain the
responsibility of Public Works and Park and
Recreation Department input being readily
accepted resulting in a "fair shake" at all
times for parks and recreation functions.
3
3 Q.
SUMMARY:
If Council selects to approve the requested action as noted it
would also be appropriate at this time to direct the appropriate
City officials to advertise for candidates to serve on the Park and
Recreation Advisory Board. It is the intent of the CDC and CRB
that the new Advisory Board be in place as soon as possible in an
effort to provide a smooth transition period. The existing
Recreation Board will be solely responsible for administering
recreation programs in place through December 31, 1990.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Approve the course of action as recommended by the Community
Development Commission and Community Recreation Board.
2 . Amend the recommended course of action and move for its
approval as amended.
3 . Table action pending further information from staff.
4 . Direct the appropriate City officials to advertise for
candidates to serve on the Park and Recreation Advisory Board.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends alternative #1 and #4 .
ACTION REQUESTED:
1. Direct the appropriate City Officials to prepare the necessary
Ordinance Amendment establishing a Park and Recreation
Advisory Board in accordance with the terms and conditions set
forth in the Resolution proposed by the Community Development
Commission and Community Recreation Board.
2 . Direct the appropriate City Officials to prepare the necessary
Ordinance amending the City Code creating a new Park and
Recreation Department with the understanding that:
a. The current responsibilities of recreation program
planning and management be continued and led by a
Director having department head responsibilities on
a par with other heads of departments within the
City' s organizational structure.
b. Park and Recreation functions be coordinated and
administered by this department in concert with the
other appropriate planning boards, committees, and
personnel within the City structure.

MEMO TO: Dennis R. Kraft, City Administrator
FROM: LeRoy Houser, Building Official and Barry Stock,
Assistant City Administrator
RE: Youth Building Panic Hardware
DATE: April 25, 1990
INTRODUCTION:
The Community Youth Building Committee (CYBC) has requested the
City to install panic hardware to accommodate over night sleeping
in the building.
BACKGROUND:
When the building was in the planning stage no one considered the
possibility of using it as over night sleeping facility.
consequently, no panic hardware was installed. It was agreed on at
that time that over compensating for exiting width and the
requirement that all doors would remain unlocked during the time of
use would negate the need for panic hardware.
I agree, that if the building is to be used for sleeping purposes
with the doors locked, we do need panic hardware on the two
required exit doors of this building. If the doors are kept
unlocked during the overnight sleeping function, the installation
of panic hardware is not necessary.
For Councils general information this building is classified as a
2 . 1 Assembly building. This is a general assembly building without
a stage and an occupancy of less then three hundred. Two exits
with a width of 6. 0 lineal feet were required for this building.
Five exits from the main floor was provided with a total exit width
of 18 lineal feet. No panic hardware was required by code. Using
the building for over night sleeping does change the picture.
I do appreciate knowing about the change in occupancy
classification from the conceptual design. It would probably head
off problems for us in a panic situation in the future.
I have obtained two cost quotations on the installation of the
proposed panic hardware. The lowest quote obtained was for
$780. 00 . No funds are currently budgeted for this item. Staff
would recommend that the CYBC be encouraged to raise funds for said
panic hardware and report any progress that they have made in
raising funds for this item to City Council prior to July 1, 1990.
This would coincide with the City' s 1991 budgeting process and in
the event funds could not be raised from outside sources, City
Council would have the option to budget for this item if they so
desired.
l (/`1.--/
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Request the CYBC to attempt to raise funds for the panic
hardware and report any progress made back to City Council by
July 1, 1990.
2 . Allow overnight sleeping on the main floor of the Youth
building providing the appropriate fire lanes are kept open
and doors kept unlocked during the overnight function.
3 . Prohibit sleeping in this building which would negate the need
for panic hardware.
4 . Install panic hardware at a cost not to exceed $780. 00 .
(Funding to be provided from contingency fund. )
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends alternative #1 and #2 .
ACTION REQUESTED:
1 . Move to request the CYBC to attempt to raise funds for the
panic hardware and report any progress made back to City
Council by July 1, 1990.
2 . Move to allow overnight sleeping on the main floor of the
Youth building providing the appropriate fire lanes are kept
open and doors kept unlocked during the overnight function.

MEMO TO: Dennis Kraft, City Administrator
FROM: Dave Hutton, Public Works DirectorlaY4/
SUBJECT: Timber Trails Subdivision
DATE: April 25, 1990
INTRODUCTION:
This memo concerns the street addressing within the Timber Trails
Subdivision.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Shakopee has adopted a street addressing grid system
such that First Avenue is the north-south axis and Holmes Street is
the east-west axis. The street addresses increase as the
properties go west from Holmes Street and also east from Holmes
Street and the addresses increase as you go south from First
Avenue.
Using this grid system, all subdivisions that are adjacent to
County Road 17 should have the following addressing; Any
subdivisions going west of County Road 17 should have the street
addresses decreasing and any subdivisions going east of County Road
17 should have the addresses increasing along the east-west
streets. All subdivisions would have the addressing increasing as
you go south on the north-south streets.
For some reason when Timber Trails was platted and street addresses
assigned, the addresses were not in conformance with this system
but reversed. The street addresses in Timber Trails are increasing
as you go west on the east-west streets. Timber Trails was platted
in 1976.
Now that other subdivisions are starting to develop around Timber
Trails, i.e. Stonebrooke, it is quite apparent that the addressing
within Timber Trails should be changed to conform with the standard
grid system. As other subdivisions are platted and developed
adjacent to the north and to the south of Timber Trails, their
street addresses will conform to the City's grid system. Therefore
with Timber Trails addressing being reversed it could pose a
serious problem for emergency vehicles looking for a particular
address and not being able to locate it due to non-conformance of
the addressing. In addition, the post office and other citizens
would not be able to locate addresses within Timber Trails as
easily as the remainder of Shakopee.
Staff is proposing that the addresses within the Timber Trails
Subdivision be revised to conform with the City Standard Grid
System. This will undoubtedly be met with some opposition from the
residents within this subdivision due to the fact that they have
had the same address for several years now and would need to revise
their addresses on various items such as checkbooks, legal
documents, etc.
Lakeview Drive within Stonebrooke Subdivison is now being
constructed and will match into Timber Trails, City staff must
assign addresses within Stonebrooke. If the addresses within Timber
Trails are not revised, the addresses in Stonebrooke will also have
to be assigned in reverse direction in order to match with existing
properties within Timber Trails compounding the problem.
Therefore, while staff recognizes that this will cause an
inconvenience to the residents within Timber Trails, the
alternative solution would only compound the problem and result in
future development having the wrong addresses.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Direct the appropriate City staff to revise the addresses in
Timber Trails to conform to the City' s grid system.
2 . Direct staff to keep the addresses in Timber Trails as they
are.
3 . Solicit input from the neighborhood prior to making a
decision.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative No. 1, to revise the addresses in
Timber Trails Subdivision to conform to the City' s grid system.
Staff is already receiving requests for addresses within the
Stonebrooke Subdivision and therefore it is imperative that this
situation be corrected as soon as possible. If the City Council
wish to solicit the input from the neighborhood, it is quite
certain that there will be opposition to this change without
changing the need to revise the addresses.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Authorize the appropriate City staff to revise the street addresses
within Timber Trails Subdivision to conform to the City' s grid
system and direct staff to notify all of the residents of this
action.

MEMO TO: DENNIS KRAFT, CITY ADMINISTRATOR
FROM: DAVE HUTTON, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: DIESEL PUMP REPLACEMENT
DATE: APRIL 25, 1990
INTRODUCTION:
The pump for the diesel fuel tank at the Public Works Garage
has quit working and needs immediate replacement.
BACKGROUND:
The diesel fuel pump has quit working and needs replacement.
Diesel fuel is used in all the fire trucks and several of the
large Public Works equipment such as the front end loaders and
grader.
The City Mechanic has rigged up a temporary hand pump in
order to keep the diesel fuel somewhat available, but the hand
pump cannot be used permanently. Prior to rigging up the
temporary hand pump, local gas stations were utilized for filling
up the equipment with diesel fuel.
Staff has obtained two quotes from pump suppliers to replace
this equipment. The low quote was from Westside Equipment for a
total estimated amount of $2485.00. This includes a new 14 gpm
pump, a 10 key system, installation and an additional $100 to
include an internal pulse system in case the City of Shakopee
went to a computer card system in the future rather than the key
system. Staff is currently reviewing the overall Vehicle
Maintenance System for upgrading and as part of this review the
feasibility of implementing a computerized system will be
evaluated.
Since this item is over $2000, it is considered Capital
Equipment. The 1991 Capital Equipment Budget includes money to
replace this pump as well as upgrade all of the underground
storage tanks to meet new EPA standards. The Capital Equipment
Budget needs to be revised to reflect replacing the pump this
year rather than in 1991. According to the Finance Director, a
budget amendment should be done to allow purchase in 1990.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is essential to have our diesel fuel pump working and
available for City equipment. It must be replaced and therefore
staff recommends replacement.
4
Since this item is over $2000, and not in the current
Capital Equipment Budget, City Council must authorize the
expenditure.
The Finance Director also recommends purchase of this pump
and also recommends amending the budget to allow purchase in
1990.
ACTION REQUESTED:
1. Authorize the Public Works Director to replace the diesel
fuel tank pump at an estimated expense of $2485.00 by Westside
Equipment Company.
2. Direct the Finance Director to prepare a budget amendment
Resolution in order to transfer adequate funds into the Capital
Equipment Budget.

SUBJECT: SURPLUS MATERIAL
DATE: APRIL 25, 1990
INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting that City Council declare excess
material at the Public Works Garage as surplus so that it could
be sold or disposed of.
BACKGROUND
Prior to selling off any surplus materials of equipment, the
City Council must first declare those items to be surplus and
authorize the City Administrator to sell them, per City Code.
Staff has made a thorough review of the Public Works Garage
and Yard to determine any surplus material or equipment.
Attached is a list of the items staff has determined are surplus
and no longer needed.
The surplus items have been reviewed by the Finance Director
to determine which items are marketable for sale at the auction
or are scrap.
Staff is now asking City Council authorization to dispose of
these items either by auction, sell for scrap or junked by
declaring these items surplus.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Declare all items on the attached list as surplus.
2. Declare only portions of the list as surplus.
3. Do not declare any items as surplus.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative No. 1, to declare all items on
the attached list as surplus.
Over the years, the Public Works Garage and Yard have
accumulated items that have either been replaced by newer
equipment or simply outlived its service life. In an effort to
clean up the yard and building and to create more usable storage
space, staff would like to get rid of these items. Top line
Supervisors and City Mechanic were also involved in the
inspection and review of all surplus items and concur with the
list.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Move to declare all items as listed on Attachment No. 1 as
surplus and authorize the City Administrator to sell or dispose
of all items.

RE: Appraisal of City Buildings
DATE: April 25, 1990
Introduction
Direction was given at a recent Council meeting to ask the past vendor for
city building appraisal to reduce the price to one half or to seek new quotations.
The results of the process are described below.
Background
As a result of a previous Council meeting, GAB Business Services was
contacted regarding reducing their price to one half of the verbal quote. They
could not afford to do the work at the reduced price.
Requests for quotations were then sent to two local vendors and GAB. The
quoted were based on a city supplied list of buildings that does include more
items than the appraisal of 1980 covered, particularly the Youth Building and the
water slide in addition to some smaller structures. Two quotes were received.
GAB appraisal cost $3,625, mathematical updates $643.25.
Universal Valuation cost $6,500 - $7,000, updates $1,000 - $2,000.
Additionally, there is a program arranged by the League of Cities for an
appraisal of city property. American Appraisal will do a reduced scope report for
$2,145 and $215 for annual updates.
While the Universal and GAB quotes are "apples" , the American quote is an
"orange" . It is a simple one line per building report and does not have the
detail of a standard appraisal report. However, the city is responsible for
accepting the report and placing values on buildings for completing the insurance
application. GAB does a lot of the loss appraisal for the League insurance
program. All three vendors appear to be qualified and experienced.
Alternatives
1. Have GAB do an update on the same buildings as before ($504) .
2. Have GAB do a full appraisal ($3,625) .
3. Have GAB do an update and add just the Youth Building and water slide ($ ?) .
4. Have American do a short appraisal ($2,145) .
5. Have Universal Valuation do an appraisal ($6,500 - $7,000) .
6. Do not have an appraisal or update.
4- 7-
Recommendation
Alternative number 4. The only use of the previous appraisal has been for
insurance values. American is experienced in municipal pooled programs and their
offer is coordinated through the League. Their product is not a full scale report
as would be produced by GAB or Universal, and there is some economies of scale
involved in the league coordinating numerous cities at one time which leads to the
lower cost.
Action
Move to accept the quote of American Appraisal for a appraisal of city
buildings for insurance purposes through the League of Minnesota Cities program
in the amount of $2,145.

MEMO TO: Dennis Kraft, City Administrator
FROM: Dave Hutton, Public Works DirectoE-.7)bir4'
SUBJECT: Bluff Avenue Extension
DATE: April 25, 1990
INTRODUCTION:
Attached is a contract extension agreement with the City's
consultant, Orr-Schelen-Mayeron & Assoc. , Inc. to provide
engineering services for the Bluff Avenue Extension Project. Staff
is also requesting authorization to retain Patchin & Associates,
Inc. to prepare the appraisal report for the right-of-way
acquisition.
BACKGROUND:
On April 3 , 1990 the City Council of Shakopee held a public hearing
to consider street improvements to Bluff Avenue between Marschall
Road and Naumkeag Street. At the conclusion of the public hearing,
the City Council ordered plans and specifications prepared for the
improvements. This project consists of constructing a new street
between Marschall Road and Naumkeag Street including pavement, curb
& gutter and storm sewers.
Staff is requesting Council authorization to utilize the City' s
consultant, Orr-Schelen-Mayeron & Assoc. (OSM) to provide the
engineering services for this project. Due to the construction
season resuming, staff will not have adequate manpower or time to
work on the design of this project until next fall or winter. If
the City Council desires this project to be completed in 1990, it
is essential that our consultant be utilized to complete the
design. Since the project is relatively small (less than two
blocks) there would still be adequate time to design and construct
this project in 1990, although it would be a later bid than usual .
There is also the possibility that this project could be combined
with another larger project prior to bidding in order to obtain the
lowest unit prices possible.
Attached is a contract extension agreement from OSM indicating that
they will provide the required services for this project at their
hourly rates with a maximum estimated total fee of $6, 000. 00, based
on a set Scope of Services attached. These services consist of all
surveying, engineering design and assistance during construction
period.
Staff would also like authorization to hire an Appraiser to prepare
a report for the property acquisition needed to obtain the right-
of-way on this project. Attached is a proposal from Patchin &
Associates, Inc. to complete this appraisal report for a fee of
$1, 500 . 00 .
Patchin & Associates are currently working on the appraisal reports
for the 5th Avenue Project and are very familiar with the City of
Shakopee and recent comparable land sales. In an effort to
expedite the process, staff would like to utilize this firm to
complete the appraisal report. The City is not required to bid out
professional services
All expenses associated with utilizing OSM and Patchin & Associates
will be included in the total project costs and assessed at the
conclusion of the project.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Direct the appropriate City officials to execute the attached
extension agreement with OSM.
2 . Authorize staff to utilize Patchin & Associates to prepare the
appraisal report for property acquisition.
3 . Deny the request.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternatives No. 1 and No. 2 .
Current staff workloads do not permit in-house design to commence
until after the 1990 construction season. If there is any chance
of constructing this project during 1990, the City must utilize OSM
to do the design. As it is, the right-of-way negotiations may
result in the project being postponed until 1991.
Because Patchin and Associates are currently preparing other
appraisal reports for the City of Shakopee, staff feels that they
could complete the appraisal report quicker and at a lower cost
than if another firm were retained. Staff does not feel there is
adequate time to solicit official proposals from several firms, nor
is the City of Shakopee under any legal obligation to do so and it
is doubtful that any other proposals would be lower than the one
submitted by Patchin.
ACTION REQUESTED:
1. Move to authorize the appropriate City officials to execute
the attached contract extension agreement with Orr-Schelen-
Mayeron & Assoc. , Inc. for professional services associated
with designing Bluff Avenue for a total estimated fee of
$6, 000. 00 .
2 . Move to authorize the appropriate City staff to utilize
Patchin & Associates, Inc. to prepare the appraisal report for
the desired right-of-way on this project for a fee of
$1, 500. 00.

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND:
Pursuant to Council direction, staff has advertised for applicants
to serve on the 1990 Board of Review. To date we have received
applications from two residents: Mr. Richard Marks and Mr. Robert
Turek. Mr. Eldon Reinke has indicated that he too is interested in
serving on the Board of Review and is completing an application;
however, it has not yet arrived.
During an earlier Council meeting, City Council moved to establish
a Board of Review consisting of five members. The Board of Review
has been set for May 22 , 1990 . Both Council and Mr. Turek have
indicated that it would be desirable to have an orientation session
prior to the Board of Review. Mr. Bob Schmidt, County Assessor, is
available for an orientation session on May 17th at 7 : 00 P.M.
Due to the shortness of time, Council may wish to consider a number
of alternatives in the establishment of the Board of Review.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Establish a Board of Review consisting of three members rather
than five.
2 . Establish a Board of Review consisting of five members: three
residents and two Council members.
3 . Council continue to convene as the Board of Review.
RECOMMENDATION:
If Council desires to establish a Board of Review consisting of
individuals other then or in addition to Council members, it is
recommended that their nomination and appointment take place on May
1st in order that they can be notified of the appointment and make
themselves available for the orientation session on May 17th and
reserve May 22nd for the Board of Review.
Or Council may decide to rescind their earlier action and not
appoint a separate Board of Review but instead convene themselves
as the Board of Review on May 22nd.

MEMO TO: Dennis Kraft, City Administrator
MEMO: Dave Hutton, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Downtown Bridge and Bypass
DATE: April 25, 1990
INTRODUCTION:
Attached is Supplemental Agreement No. 4 for consultant services
associated with the Downtown Bridge and Bypass Project for City
Council consideration.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Shakopee signed an agreement with Howard Needles Tammen
& Bergendoff (HNTB) on November 13 , 1987 to perform engineering
services associated with the Downtown Bridge and Minibypass
Project. The City retained HNTB at the request of Mn/DOT in order
to expedite the design process, since the existing workloads of
Mn/DOT staff would have prevented them from designing this project
in-house for several years.
Since that agreement was executed there has been 3 Supplemental
Agreements added to the contract covering additional design work
that were not part of the original agreement.
Mn/DOT has now informed staff that they would like HNTB to do
additional work associated with a pedestrian trial on the north
side of the river. In addition, Mn/DOT has revised their final
pavement design based on soil borings and revised asphalt
specifications, resulting in the need to revise plans that have
already been completed. Attached is Supplemental Agreement No. 4
from HNTB covering this additional design work for Council
consideration. The total amount of Supplemental Agreement No. 4 is
$8 , 547 . 00. Mn/DOT has reviewed this Supplemental Agreement and has
informed staff that it is acceptable.
The following table summarizes the total cost of the consultant' s
service to date:
Original Agreement $125, 417 . 00
Supplemental Agreement No. 1 $ 41, 739 . 00
Supplemental Agreement No. 2 $ 37 , 545. 00
Supplemental Agreement No. 3 $ 3 , 441. 00
Supplemental Agreement No. 4 $ 8 , 547 . 00
Total Consultant' s Cost $216, 689 . 00
All expenses associated with the consultant ' s fees are included in
the City of Shakopee' s $1. 9 contribution to this project.
The City Council should keep in mind that this is a Mn/DOT project
and Mn/DOT staff dictates the design requirements for this project.
All Supplemental Agreements with HNTB have been authorized and
approved of by Mn/DOT. Per the terms of the original Memorandum of
Understanding, Mn/DOT could utilize the City' s $1.9 million
contribution in any way they choose and they have elected to
utilize a portion of it for the design. The remainder of the funds
will be utilized either for construction or right-of-way
acquisition.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Approve of Supplemental Agreement No. 4 .
2 . Do not approve of Supplemental Agreement No. 4 .
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative No. 1.
ACTION REQUESTED:
Move to authorize the appropriate City officials to execute
Supplemental Agreement No. 4 with Howard Needles Tammen &
Bergendoff for engineering services associated with the Downtown
Bridge and Bypass in the amount of $8, 547 . 00 .

Amendment to Supplemental Agreement Request
Dear Mr. Hutton:
It has been brought to my attention that the initial list of work items
presented to the City, in the supplemental agreement necessary to perform
the tasks described in my letter of January 9, 1990, was incomplete. Now in
order to provide the proper design and to satisfy the desires of the
U. S. Fish & Wildlife and the Mn/DNR the Consultant, HNTB, must amend the
work items. The amended items would include the wick drains, the pedestrian
path and the development of the access road. Because of these changes, it
is requested that you authorize the Consultant to proceed with the
supplemental agreement.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Sincerely,

MEMO TO: Dennis Kraft, City Administrator
FROM: Dave Hutton, Public Works Director
LPIL
SUBJECT: Meadows 2nd Addition Subdivision
DATE: April 24 , 1990
INTRODUCTION:
Staff is seeking authorization to reimburse the developer of the
Meadows 2nd Addition for street oversizing costs associated with
the construction of Vierling Drive.
BACKGROUND:
Vierling Drive is being constructed as a 50 foot wide collector
street. A normal, residential City street is 36 feet wide. The
City of Shakopee has taken the position when development occurs
adjacent to Vierling Drive and the developer constructs Vierling
Drive, they will be reimbursed for the additional costs associated
with constructing a 50 foot wide street versus a 36 foot wide
residential street.
The developer' s agreement between the City of Shakopee and Gold
Nugget Development, Inc. , the developers for the Meadows 2nd
Addition Subdivision, indicates that the City of Shakopee will
reimburse the developer for the oversizing costs associated with
Vierling Drive. The oversizing costs had been estimated at
$10, 088 . 15.
Staff has now received a request from the developer for the actual
costs associated with oversizing the street. The actual costs for
this oversizing is $9, 192 . 31. The fund for reimbursing the
developer for these oversizing costs would come out of the Capital
Improvement Fund.
Staff is now seeking Council authorization to reimburse the
developer $9 , 192 . 31 in accordance with the developer' s agreement.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Reimburse the developer.
2 . Deny the developer' s request.
3 . Table the item until additional information is provided.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative No. 1, to reimburse the developer for
the street oversizing costs associated with Vierling Drive in the
amount of $9 , 192 . 31. The developer' s agreement requires the City
/ 1-/ (L.
to reimburse the developer for these costs and therefore the City
has a legal obligation to comply with the terms of the agreement.

Dear Mr. Hutton:
We have calculated the street oversizing credit as follows:
The total length of Verling Drive constructed in the Meadows 2nd
Addition was 426 lineal feet.
VERLING DRIVE
(Local Collector Section)
Subgrade Prep. @ $0.36/S.Y. X 2510 S.Y. = $ 903.60
8" CL. 5 Aggregate @ $2.73/S.Y. X 2510 S.Y. = $ 6,852.30
2 1/2 Bit Base Course @ $2.52/S.Y. X 2275 S.Y. = $ 5,733.00
2" Bit Wear Course @ $2.09/S.Y. X 2275 S.Y. = $ 4,754.75
Bit Tack Coat @ $1.25/Gal X 114 Gal = $ 142.50
B 618 Curb & Gutter @ $4.12/L.F. X 830 L.F. = $ 3,419.60
Mill Bit Pavement @ $250 L.S. = $ 250.00
Local Street Section Total $22,055.75
Subgrade Prep. @ $0.36/S.Y. X 1846 S.Y. = $ 664.56
6" CL.5 Aggregate @ $2.08/S.Y. X 1846 S.Y. = $ 3,839.68
1 1/2" Bit Base Course @ $1.53/S.Y. X 1610 S.Y. = $ 2,463.30
1 1/2" Bit Wear Course @ $1.61/S.Y. X 1610 S.Y. = $ 2,592.10

The reimbursement due Gold Nugget Development, Inc., then would be

MEMO TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Dennis R. Kraft, City Administrator
RE: Fiscal Disparities Option for TIF Districts #3 & #4
DATE: April 25, 1990
INTRODUCTION:
At the March 20th City Council meeting a discussion was held on the
option of changing the fiscal disparities contribution for TIF
District #4 (Canterbury Downs) from the City as a whole to the
district itself.
BACKGROUND:
At the March 20th Council meeting action on the proposed change was
tabled pending potential action by the legislature on amending
related legislation. It was thought at that time that the
legislature would be adjourning prior to Easter. However, the
legislature did not meet it' s previously determined deadline by the
April 17th Council meeting so this item was tabled to the May 1st
meeting. As of this date the Legislature has apparently taken
action on tax increment financing and local governmental aid
legislation but we have received no information on this legislation
nor have we been able to determine its impact on the City of
Shakopee.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that this item be removed from the table and then
tabled again.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Remove the item on the Fiscal Disparities Relating to Tax
Increment Financing Districts 3 and 4 from the table.
2 . Table the item.
ACTION REOUESTED:
1) Move to remove the item on the Fiscal Disparities Relating to
Tax Increment Financing Districts 3 and 4 from the table.
2) Move to table this item.

Memo To: Mayor and City Council
From: LeRoy Houser, Building Official
Subject: Plan Check Fees/Revenue Source
Date: 4/19/90
INTRODUCTION
Section 304 (c) of the Uniform Building Code, a State adopted code,
which we were required to adopt sets forth a fee schedule. This
section requires a plan check fee of 65% of the building permit fee
be charged for plan checking services. This is a code requirement.
BACKGROUND
In 1974 the Council chose to ignore this section of the fee
schedule as it applies to single family dwellings. As I remember
the rationale for omitting it from the fee schedule was, it would
penalize local builders and would inhibit growth.
All of the surrounding municipalities, including Scott County,
charge this plan check fee for single family dwellings. It has not
inhibited growth in any of these jurisdictions and provides an
additional revenue source.
Mrs. Shaner and myself have calculated that if we would have
charged a plan check fee for this service, which we presently
provide and do not charge for, for single family homes in 1989 we
would have had approximately an additional $30, 000. 00 attributable
to this department.
With the anticipated short fall in revenues in 1991, I would
strongly advise the Council to amend the present fee schedule to
include a plan check charge for single family and multi-family
dwellings equal to 65% of the building permit fee as required in
section 304 (c) of the Uniform Building Code.
ALTERNATIVES
1. Continue with the status quo and charge the plan check fee for
commercial and industrial projects only.
2 . Amend the 1990 fee schedule to include a plan check fee of 65%
of the permit fee for single family and multi-family
dwellings, in addition to commercial and industrial projects.

MEMO TO: Dennis Kraft, City Administrator
FROM: Dave Hutton, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Upper Valley Drainage Project
Phase II, Project No. 1987-5A
DATE: April 25, 1990
INTRODUCTION:
Attached is Resolution No. 3229, A Resolution accepting bids and
awarding contract for the Upper Valley Drainage Project, Phase II.
BACKGROUND:
On March 6, 1990 the City Council of Shakopee ordered the
advertisement for bids for the Upper Valley Drainage Project, Phase
II. This project consists of completing the storm sewer project
from 4th Avenue to the Minnesota River.
On April 10, 1990 at 10: 00 A.M. bids were received and publicly
opened for this project. A total of twelve bids were received and
are summarized in the attached Resolution. The three low bids are
tabulated below:
Contractor City Total Bid
Richard Knutson, Inc. Savage $576,737.00
Barbarossa & Sons, Inc. Osseo $595,258.00
Brown & Cris, Inc. Lakeville $633,192.00
The Engineering Department has reviewed all bids for completeness
and also the qualifications of Richard Knutson, Inc. , low bidder
and have determined that they are able to perform the work as
described by the plans and specifications. The engineer' s estimate
for this project was $581, 655. 00, not including a $30, 000. 00
manhole structure that was added to the plans once the estimate was
prepared.
Since Mn/DOT is paying approximately 14 . 6% of this project, the
cooperative agreement between the City of Shakopee and Mn/DOT
states that Mn/DOT must concur with the low bidder prior to the
City awarding the contract. Staff has received verbal concurrence
of the award and written confirmation should be received by staff
prior to the May 1, 1990 City Council meeting.
Staff is requesting that the City Council award this contract to
the low bidder by adopting Resolution No. 3229 . Staff is also
requesting that the City Council authorize a contingency amount of
8% to be used in conjunction with processing any Change Orders
associated with this project. This is the same amount that Mn/DOT
has budgeted for a contingency for their portion of the project.
A contingency of 8% would be $46, 138. 96.
3
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Accept the low bid and adopt Resolution No. 3229, which awards
the contract to Richard Knutson, Inc.
2 . Reject the low bid and award the contract to the second low
bidder or another bidder.
3 . Reject all bids and rebid.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Alternative No. 1, to accept the low bid and award
the contract to Richard Knutson, Inc. of Savage, MN for a total
amount of $576, 737 . 00.
Staff is also recommending authorize a contingency amount of 8% to
be used by the project administrator to process Change Orders
associated with this project or for use in adjusting the final
contract amount based on actual installed quantities. Since this
project is a unit price contract, as are all the City contracts,
the unit price prevails not the total contract cost. In other
words the City of Shakopee is required to pay the unit prices for
each bid item based on the final installed quantities. The final
installed quantities will not be the same as the estimated
quantities so the final amount of the contract will not be equal to
the total bid.
In addition, there quite often numerous minor field adjustments for
change orders needed due to the site conditions being different
than what was anticipated in the plans. The contractor will not
be able to delay construction for two weeks until a Council meeting
and staff quite often needs to authorize minor change amounts
immediately. Therefore staff is requesting an 8% contingency
amount for this project. As usual, all Change Orders must be
approved by the project administrator and the City Administrator
with Council being informed all changes, according to the current
Change Order Policy. The contingency amount cannot be exceeded
without prior Council approval .
ACTION REQUESTED:
1. Offer Resolution No. 3229, A Resolution Accepting Bid on the
Upper Valley Drainage Project, Phase II, Project No. 1987-5A
and award the contract to Richard Knutson, Inc. of Savage, MN
for a total amount of $576, 737 . 00 and move its adoption.
2 . Move to allocate a contingency in the amount of 8% for use by
the project administrator for this contract.

MEMO TO: Dennis R. Kraft, City Administrator
FROM: Judith S. Cox, City Clerk
RE: Apportionment of Special Assessments Within Meadows 3rd
Addition
DATE: April 26, 1990
INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND:
Council recently approved the plat of Meadows 3rd Addition.
You may recall that the Meadows 3rd Addition was a replat of those
lots within the 2nd Addition which were adjacent to Vierling Drive.
The need for the replatting was to correct a dedication on the 2nd
Addition which should not have been made on the plat. There are
special assessments against the Meadows 2nd Addition. It is
necessary to transfer those special assessments from the lots
described in the Meadows 2nd Addition to the like lots within the
Meadows 3rd Addition. The lots in the 2nd Addition which have been
replatted into the 3rd Addition will cease to exist.
The property owner has been advised of this transfer of
special assessments (reapportionment of special assessments to the
lots in the 3rd Addition) .
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Move to offer Resolution No. 3232 , A Resolution Apportioning
Assessments Among New Parcels Created As A Result Of Platting Of

Memo To: Mayor & City Council Members
Dennis R. Kraft, City Administrator
From: Marilyn Remer, Personnel Coordinator
Re: Custodian Position
Date: April 30, 1990
Introduction
At the March 20, 1990 meeting, Council authorized advertising
for a full time custodian/maintenance worker.
Background
The City' s custodial services have been provided by three
part-time employees. Two of those employees recently
terminated their employment with the City. Maintaining a
minimal level of housekeeping in the interim has been
exceedingly difficult. The temporary services of Manpower,
several local cleaning services and family members of the
current part-time custodian have been utilized, but due to the
variable hours schedule and number of buildings serviced,
there has been much turn-over. As Council is aware, security
and confidentiality are concerns of many city departments,
therefore a full time on-staff custodian will provide much
needed continuity.
Council authorized a full time custodial position, responsible
for the miscellaneous cleaning and upkeep of all city
buildings, namely; City Hall, Police Dept./Public Works
building, Community Recreation building, the Library and the
congregate dining facilities at the Senior Hi-Rise.
The position was advertised locally. Nine applications were
received. Six candidates were interviewed on April 27, 1990
by LeRoy Houser, Building Official ; Barry Stock, Ass 't. City
Adm. ; and Marilyn Remer, Personnel Coord. The interview
panel recommends that Mr. Charles Fuller be hired to fill the
Custodian position at the rate of $9 . 22/hr. effective May 29,
1990. (Mr. Fuller has a previously planned two-week vacation
starting May 11th)
Mr. Fuller has previously been employed by Carver County in
their custodial/maintenance department. In addition to general
custodial experience, Mr. Fuller has a versatile "handyman"
background including experience and knowledge in plumbing,
electrical & heating, carpentry, floor care, cleaning
procedures, etc. ; necessary to provide the minor maintenance
needed throughout the city buildings. He also holds a First
Class C Boiler License. Satisfactory telephone reference
checks and a police background check have been completed.
The salary range for Custodian is $6. 91-$9 . 22/hr. Staff is
recommending Mr. Fuller be hired at the rate of $9 . 22/hr. due
to his previous experience and level of maintenance expertise.
It should be noted that the current pay rate of the majority
of the candidates exceeded the $9.22/hr. rate. A comparable
worth TSP (Time Spent Profile) will be completed by the
employee after six months of employment to determine the
appropriateness of the classification and pay range.
Recommendation
Staff recommends Mr. Charles Fuller be hired as full time
Custodian at the rate of $9. 22/hr. effective May 29 , 1990.
Action Requested
Move to hire Charles Fuller as full time Custodian at the rate
of $9 .22/hr. effective May 29, 1990.

Re: Minnesota Racetrack, Inc. Sale to Racing Corporation
of Minnesota
Our File No. 1-1373-237
Dear Dennis:
I have reviewed the documents sent me by the Dorsey firm relative to the
transfer of the racetrack from MRI to RCM. All of the transfer was done by
individual documents transferring specifically enumerated items of personal
property or descriptions of real property.
The implication of this "asset transfer" as opposed to "stock transfer"
for the City is that RCM has not assumed any of the obligations or legal
responsibilities of MRI. Consequently, any amounts owed by MRI to the City as
a result of our contractual relationship visa via the "A" bonds remains with MRI
alone. The new corporation and its ownership has not assumed that
responsibility.
While this was hardly a surprise, we needed to know what our position is
in that regards. Please call should you have further; questions.
Very truly
yogis,
