Eden Prairie, MN 55344
Dear .ter. Penzel :
On April 19 , I received a copy of a letter to you from Mayor
Harbeck of Shakopee commenting on your comprehensive plan.
There are some comments made in this letter regarding Metro-
politan Council ' s position on the County State Aid Highway
(CSAH) 18 bridge which are misleading.
Mayor Harbeck states in the letter that Shakopee was directed
by the Council in its System Statement to consider a high level
bridge crossing at CSAH 18 . The only directive given to
Shakopee on the CSAH 18 bridge was as follows :
"In addition to those issues discussed previously under specific
highway segments , Shakopee should recognize in its planning the
C.R. 18 bridge issue . C .R. 18 is a minor arterial south of
I-494 and thus is not part of the metropolitan highway system.
However , the existence (or non-existence) of a river crossing
at this location could influence land use and development in
Shakopee . An Ad Hoc River Crossing Committee has been estab-
lished to study this issue. "
This Major River Crossings Task Force of the Transportation
Advisory Board completed its study in November 1978 . The com-
mittee found that only one bridge , which is 'not susceptible to
flooding, is needed between Burnsville and Shakopee . The com-
mittee recommended that an environmental impact statement be
completed for a suitable future bridge location between Burns-
ville and Shakopee to replace both the CSAH 18 and Savage
bridges . The CSAH 18 location ranked higher than the Savage
location but , considering the environmental concerns at this
location, the committee recommended that both sites be further
studied.

If you have any further questions about the Council ' s position
on the CSAH 18 bridge , feel free to contact Larry Dallam,
Director of Transportation Planning for the Council .

129 E. First Ave.
Shakopee, Minn. 55379
Dear Mr. Harbeck:
Thank you very much for your quick response to our request for
review of our Comprehensive Guide Plan Update. I felt your comments
regarding C. S.A.H. 18 deserved some additional response.
As you are aware, Eden Prairie is on record as being in support of
Unique System D which calls for the construction of Highway 212 ,
improvements to Co. Rd. 41 and upgrading of C.S.A.H. 18. We have
also passed a resolution in favor of the preparation of the Environmental
Impact Statement for a bridge crossing at 18.
However, as you can appreciate, Trunk Highway 5 and U.S. Highway 169 in
our community re terribly overburdened by regional traffic. Our Council
y Highway
iof y
has therefore been actively encouraging the early construction 9
212 to accommodate this regional through traffic.
Our Guide Plan is consistent with the Metropolitan Council ' s designation
of Co. Rd. 18 as a minor arterial , and development in the area reflects
that.
Bloomington has, however, provided adequate right-of-way reservation in
the form of low density residential zoning, for Co. Rd, 18 to be upgraded.
I hope that this will help to clarify the questions that you raised,
Sincer } ;

Mr. Harold Roberts
4808 inoodhill way CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Edina, Minnesota 55424
Dear Mr. Roberts;
I have received copies of letters mailed to you from the City of Shakopee
and the Minnesota Department of Health concerning an abandoned well on your
property in Roberts Gravel Pit, T115 N R22W, Sec. 7, SW4 NWw Scott County.
It appears that nothing has been done to date to seal this abandoned well.
You have been advised that there are state and local laws prohibiting abandoned
wells. References are: Minnesota Statutes MHD 218 (c) and Shakopee Ordinance
Chapter 4, Section 4.25 Subd. 1. Violation of these laws is a misdemeanor.
I am requiring that you contact a licensed water well contractor to seal this
well (in accordance with Minnesota Department of Health regulations) within
ten (10) days of the receipt of this letter. I am requiring that a licensed
water well contractor perform the sealing because improperly sealing the well
would not solve the problem.
Your well is providing a direct channeL fvr surface run-off to enter the
ground water aquifers used for all the wells in the area. This is a threat
to public health:
If I have not received verification, within ten (10) days of the certified
receipt of this letter that reasonable progress has been made to properly
seal this well I will reconauend, to the County Attorney that action be taken.
I realize that this may appear to be requiring rather prompt action on your
part but you have been advised of the situation since at least November of
1978 and no progress is evident.
Your cooperation will be appreciated.

Allen Frechette

Re: County Road 83
Dear Sir:
In response to your letter of April 10 regarding the
improvement of County Road 83 , I would appreciate your
furnishing this office with the following information:
1. A site plan of the proposed development,
2 . projected total daily traffic generated by the
proposed development, both automobile and truck, and
the distribution of this traffic throughout the day,
and
3. other roadways in Scott County which will be impacted.
You might ask K-Mart to furnish this information to you in
a formal report with documentation.
We recognize that this project is desirable and will
cooperate with the City of Shakopee in this undertaking.
I will propose programming the needed improvements for
1982 ; however if these improvements are needed before this
time , it will be necessary for the City to finance them
until the County is able to make reimbursement.
County policy, as was stated March 16 , is that the County
provides for excavation, backfill , base and bituminous
but does not participate in the cost of curb and gutter,
sidewalk, sanitary sewers or water mains . Cost of storm
sewer is shared by the City and County in the amount
recommended by the Minnesota Department of Transportation,
Hydraulics Division. Preliminary and construction
engineering costs are also shared in proportion to the
costs paid by the County and the City. Additional rights
of way, if required, are to be acquired by the City at no
cost to the County.

CITY OF SHAKOPEE Shakopee, NIN 55379
March 23, 1979
Mayor and City Council
City of Shakopee
Shakopee, MN 55379
Gentlemen:
I would like to request that a 4-way stop be installed at the inter-
section of Market Street and Shakopee Avenue, replacing the two "yield"
signs currently on Market Street and the two "dip" signs on Shakopee Avenue .
This is strictly a residential neighborhood. It is two blocks from
Pearson Elementary and, therefore, has many children playing and traveling
to and from school and playgrounds. Some of these children travel Shakopee
Avenue to avoid the heavy traffic of 10th Ave.
I have witnessed many cars traveling in the 50 MPH range on both streets
not to mention those in excess of 30 MPH. The dip, which is at the west edge
of the intersection, is nothing more than a small bump at the speeds of some
of the cars.
I complained to the Police Dept. late last summer but I have seen a
patrol car only on a couple of occasions cruising through the area. I am
amazed that there has not been more accidents at this intersection.
It is my belief that a 4-way stop would slow down the traffic and deter
some to other streets such as county road 17 and 10th Ave. , both of which
are 4 lane streets.
I hope this can be done before this intersection adds to the statistics .
Sincerely,
L
Robert Polk

TO: Douglas S . Reeder , City Administrator
r
FROM: H.R. Spurrier , City Engineer
DATE: April 30, 1979
SUBJECT: Engineer ' s Report
Two matters were referred to my office April 17 , 1979. The
matter of installing a 4-way stop at the intersection of Market
Street and Shakopee Avenue ; and the matter of the alley between
Seventh and Eighth Avenue east of Dakota Street, constructed out
of its apparent right-of-way.
Regarding the first matter which is the use of traffic signs
other than speed limit signs to control speeding. Enforcement of
existing speed limits controls speed. No other action will provide
effective control. I know that there could be no warrant for a
multiway stop (ie. 5 or more accidents of a type susceptible of
correction by a multiway stop or at least 500 vehicles per hour) .
Above all , if stop signs are installed without warrants the local
public begins to disregard the signs and then fails to stop at
signs that are actually warranted and this creates more dangerous
problems . The sign does not control speeding, it relocates
speeding. I must recommend that the request of Mr . Polk and his
I neighbors be denied.
The second matter reviewed by me pertains to the alley between
Seventh and Eighth Avenue. Mr. Koch has requested relocation of
the alley. There are two remedies to this problem. One is to
reconstruct the alley at a cost of approximately $2 ,000. 00 per
lot or a total of $14 ,000. 00 or condemn the right-of-way needed
to maintain the present alley allignment at perhaps a maximum of
2 400. 00 plus an damages . I would be prepared to pursue either
$ P Y g
alternative in greater detail should that be the desire of the
Council.

Dear Mr. Reeder: -
I am returning the data you gave us relative to the proposed Valley
Industrial Center - I project.
It is our understanding this application for $1 ,000,000 is being made
by a partnership comprised of the North American Life and Casualty
Company and John Brooks Hauser. It is our further understanding that
Northland Mortgage Company will serve as underwriter for the project
and will place the mortgage note with one of its institutional investors.
This project appears to meet the major requirement of your policy for
commercial development financing, including:
1 . The security will be a mortgage on the property and
Improvements, and the note will be sold to an institutional
investor.
2. Northland Mortgage Company is an acceptable underwriter.
3. The building value, according to the application , will be
equal to more than 90% of the requested note value.
If satisfactory arrangements have been made for the payment of public
costs, then items 1 - 5 of your criteria would appear to have been met'.
Mr. Douglas Reeder, City Administrator
City of Shakopee, Minnesota

need for financing assistance, or the financial viability of the project.
If you have any further questions about this matter, please feel free
to contact me.

RESOLUTION NO. 1396 (�
RESOLUTION GIVING PRELIMINARY APPROVAL
TO A PROJECT UNDER THE MUNICIPAL
INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT ACT, REFERRING
THE PROPOSAL TO THE COMMISSIONER OF
SECURITIES FOR APPROVAL, AND AUTHORIZING """ '
EXECUTION OF A MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT AND
PREPARATION OF NECESSARY DOCUMENTS
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Shakopee , Minnesota (the City) , as follows:
Section 1. Recitals. N
1 . 01 . The Legislature of the State of Minnesota, in
Minnesota Statutes , Chapter 474 , as amended (the Act) , has
found and declared that the welfare �of the State requires
active promotion, attraction, encouragement and development
of economically sound industry and commerce through governmental
acts to prevent , so far as possible, emergence of blighted lands
and areas of chronic unemployment; has authorized municipalities
to issue revenue bonds to finance, in whole or in part, the costs
of the acquisition, construction, reconstruction, improvement and
betterment of projects , including any properties , real or personal ,
used or useful in connection with a revenue producing enterprise
engaged in any business; and has authorized municipalities to enter
into "revenue agreements" , as defined in the Act, with any person,
firm, or public or private corporation or federal or state
governmental subdivision or agency (the "Contracting Party" )
providing for the payment by the Contracting Party of amounts
sufficient to provide for the prompt payment of principal of
and interest on the revenue bonds.
1 . 02 . Pursuant to the authority of the Act, it has been
proposed that the City issue its revenue bonds in an amount
sufficient to pay all or part of the costs of the acquisition,
construction, improvement and betterment of 'certain real and
personal properties within the City to be used by Valley
Industrial Center One, a Minnesota general partnership (the
Partnership) , as a 62 , 400 square foot office- Warehouse project
(the Project) , and to make the proceeds of the sale of those
revenue bonds available to the Partnership, who will agree to
pay the City amounts sufficient to pay promptly the principal
of and interest on the revenue bonds, and to cause the Project
to be constructed. The Project is presently estimated to cost
$1, 000, 000.
1 . 03. The existence of the Project would add to the tax
base of the City, County and School District in which the City
is located, and would provide increased gpportunities for
employment for residents of the City and surrounding area.
1 . 04 . The City has been advised that conventional commercial
financing to pay the capital cost of the Project is available
only on a limited basis and at such high costs of borrowing that
00e
the economic feasibility of operating the Project would be
significantly reduced, but that with the aid of municipal
financing , and its resulting low borrowing costs , the Project
is economically more feasible .
1 . 05. The City has been advised that revenue bonds of
the City could be issued and sold upon favorable rates and
terms to finance the Project.
1 . 06 . There has been presented to this Council a form of
Memorandum of Agreement relating to the issuance of revenue bonds
of the City to finance costs of the Project.
Section 2 . Approvals and Authorizations.
2 . 01. On the basis of the information given the City to
date , it appears that it would be in the best interest of the
City to issue its industrial development revenue bonds under
the provisions of the Act to finance all or part of the costs
of the Project.
2 . 02 . The Project is hereby given preliminary approval
by the City and the issuance of revenue bonds for such purposes
and in an amount not to exceed $1 , 000, 000 approved, subject to
approval of the Project by the Commissioner of Securities and
of the purchasers of the bonds as to the details of the bond
issue and provisions for their payment.
2 . 03 . The form of Memorandum of Agreement is approved
and the Mayor and City Clerk are authorized to execute the
Memorandum of Agreement, with such changes as the City Attorney
may approve , on behalf of the City.
2 . 04 . In accordance with law, the Mayor is hereby authorized
and directed to submit the proposal for the Project to the
Commissioner of Securities for her approval of the Project.
The Mayor, City Clerk , City Attorney and other officers,
employees and agents of the City are hereby authorized to provide
the Commissioner with any preliminary information she may need for
this purpose, and the City Attorney is authorized to initiate
and assist in the preparation of such documents as may be
appropriate to the Project, if it is approved by the Commissioner .
Section 3 . Special Obligations.
In all events, it is understood, however, that the bonds
of the City shall not constitute a charge , lien or encumbrance,
legal or equitable upon any property of the City except the
Project, if it becomes the property of the City, and each bond,
as, and if issued, is payable solely from the revenues from the

not constitute a debt of the City.

CITY OF SHAKOPEE
TO: Mayors, Managers and Clerks
The League of Minnesota Cities has launcAed a major legislative effort with respect to
state aid to cities. The League proposal was approved by the Board of Directors on
March 28. Board action authorized presentation of the plan to the Legislature and has
produced a flurry of activity designed to implement the policy.
Thus far, League representatives have appeared before both the house and Senate Tax
Cormittees as well as the Joint Legislative Commission on Pensions. Staff and League
officers are i-nEeting with Governor's representatives, legislators, and local officials
in order to explain and gain support for the program.
The League local government aid reform proposal results from considerable work by comm-
ittees of city elected and appointed officials, city technicians , and League officers
and directors. The process began in October, 1978 when League president Burgcraaff
a pointed layor Harvey Lange of Robbinsdale and Arlene Brown, Councilmember from
Mankato as co-chairmen of a nev! committee on Finance. After prel irni nary sessions
listening to resource persons and discussing local government aid to cities, the Finance
Committee decided that it should work as a subcommittee of the League Revenue Sources
Policy Committee which has a similar charge. The Revenue Sources Committee supported
this proposal .
The Finance Committee also decided that it required a considerable amount of technical
k�!ork on the current state aid formula, the many criticisms leveled against it, and
alternatives. The Committee established a technical committee composed of Charles
J'arth, Brooklyn Park; John Fischbach, Robbinsdale; Dick Graves, TARS; Stan Kehl , Minn-
ea olis; Lyle Olson, Bloomington; Roger Peterson, AMM; Arlin Waelti , LhiC; Steve
!°'ellington, St. Paul . This group ielr an exhaustive series of meetings during which
tie state aid to cities possibilities were extensively reviewed. Ultimately, the tech-
nical group produced recommendations which v.-ere submitted to the Finance Committee. The
Finance Committee approved the package arising from the technical committee and forward-
ed the plan on to the Revenue Sources Committee. This group modified the package and
sent it to the League Board. The Gcard reviewed the proposal in detail and approved it.
T'r,is is the first comprehensive exposition of tie issue to all League members and we
encourage you to retain this bulletin for your records: it presents as complete a

picture on the issues as can be made available at this time.
Attached are several technical documents which you will want to review and consider care-
fully as the state aids issue works its way through the Legislature. These include:
1) Article from Minneapolis Star
2) Explanation of the proposed formula
3) Print out
Prospects
League members should understand several aspects of the proposed revision of the state
aid formula and other elements of the comprehensive plan.
This is the first time the League has proposed a state aid formula. That in and of
itself is significant. There is wide agreement among cities that they will support this
package as the best we can do at this time. As the various committees worked on this
issue, a consensus developed that the process, that is, city officials sitting down to-
gether trying to devise the correct solution to state aid rather than having the Governor
or the Legislature do it for us, is of equal if not greater significance than the product.
All who have participated thus far support the concept of an on-going formula and state
aid study to be conducted by city officials through the League.
The question of whether the League' s proposal may prevail this year is admittedly prob-
lematic. The package is delicately balanced and requires support from several legisla-
tive committees in both houses of the Legislature in addition to approval from both the
House and Senate and the Governor.
The League's proposal comes before a House of Representatives which is closely divided,
with a Senate very nervous about the prospective election in the light of the results
of the voting last November. In both Houses the mutual suspicions of the two political
parties are increasing. The proposal by the League falls close to the central divisions
between the two parties and relates to the major debate over taxes in Minnesota and the
income versus property tax relief question.
On the positive side, however, local government aid reform is an idea whose time may
have come. As the League' s committees worked on this concept, it became obvious that
the Governor and the Legislature were anxiously awaiting the result. Preliminary indi-
cations are that there is strong affirmative reaction to the proposal in the limited
discussion which has taken place concerning it in the capitol .
The real question is whether Minnesota city officials will rally behind this proposal
and push it with their Legislators. There is no question that the proposal requires
broad base, bi-partisan support from cities throughout the state if it is to make it
through the mine-field of the legislative process. Even though broadly representative
League committees and the League Board developed and endorsed the state aid reform
package, not all cities in the state support the concept. Indeed, some of the cities
participating in the various committees would derive no monetary benefit from adoption
of the proposed local government aid package, but they supported the proposal as an
improvement and they especially supported the commitment to continued work on the state
aid formula.

Next Steps
The League recommends that you take several steps:
1) Read the materials on the local government aid proposal .
2) Call the League office of your feelings and actions on
this subject.
3) Contact your members of the House and Senate and convey
your support of the cities' proposed local government
aid proposal .

PROPOSED NEW `'LOCAL REVENUE BASE" FORMULA
INTRODUCTION
The existing Local Government Aid formula has been criticized by many for inequitably distributing state
dollars for property tax relief. While Minnesota's municipal state aid system is one of the most enlightened
in the country, it has become more and more evident that changes in the existing state aid formula are nec-
essary in order to ensure more efficient and effective d istribution of state resources.
A number of problems have been identified as most in need of attention:
1. Inequities due to the existing county by county distribution system.
2. The appearance of the "incentive to increase spending".
3. Reduced state aid allocations when a municipality lowers its tax rate.
4. An inadequate relationship between "fiscal capacity" and state aid,so that tax base poor commun-
ities are shortchanged.
5. The reliance on outdated (ie. 1970) population data.
6. The lack of full credit for population increases.
7. Disproportionate annual aid increases for certain cities.
8. Data inadequacies and inaccuracies for smaller cities and towns.
In order to correct these problems the League of Minnesota Cities has developed a proposal for a new aid
formula.
Purpose
The overriding purpose of Minnesota's state aid system is property tax relief. After considerable study the
League of Cities committee concluded that increases in state aids have been consistently used by Minnesota's
cities for property tax relief. In order to keep property taxes from increasing, ongoing expansion of state
aids will be necessary.
In addition to maintaining the primary purpose of property tax relief, the League of Cities proposed new
"Local Revenue Base"formula was developed in order to carry out the following purposes:
1. To eliminate reliance on outdated population estimates.
2. To relate state aid distribution more strongly to a community's "fiscal capacity", as measured by
tax base wealth.
3. To eliminate inequities due to the county by county distribution system.
4. To eliminate any "reward"for cities which increase their tax rate and to eliminate any "penalty" for
communities which cut their spending.
5. To adopt maximum limitations on the amount of increase in state aid any one jurisdiction can re-
ceive annually.
6. To relate state aid allocations to a community's need for local revenue to finance basic municipal
services,as measured by each community's levy limit base.
7. To treat cities and towns under 2500 population separately in order to simplify aid formula calcula-
tions for smaller municipalities and to eliminate problems with data inaccuracies and inadequacies
for smaller jurisdictions.
8. To relate future growth in state aid to changes in population, inflation,and tax base capacity.
9. To provide an incentive for replacement of aging capital facilities.
OVER
10., To resolve "special"fiscal problems, ie. local pensions.
Proposed New "Local Revenue Base" Formula- Municipalities over 2500
The proposed local revenue base formula is based on the difference between a community's "local revenue
base" and the amount of property tax revenue which it can raise by applying a tax rate of 10 mills to its
taxable valuation. A community's "local revenue base" is determined for the initial year by its levy limit
base. Special levies for debt service, pension expense, and other extraordinary municipal costs are not in-
cluded in the base. Other forms of local revenue such as fees, service charges, special assessments, and local
sales tax revenue are also disregarded.
In subsequent years, the local revenue base is increased by 1) inflation, as measured by the annual increase
in the consumer price index, 2) by the percent increase in population, and 3) by special levies for debt ser-
vice for replacement of capital facilities. The inclusion of such special levies is limited to the following types
of projects: streets, storm sewers, curbs,gutters, and bridges - only the most basic types of capital facilities.
This provides for an incentive for capital reinvestment.
Minimum Aid Limitation
All cities are assured of at least a $1/capita increase, if their average equalized mill rate (AEMR) is less than
or equal to 10. If their AEMR is greater than 10 or less than or equal to 20,they are assured of at least a
$3/capita increase in their state aid factor. If their AEMR is greater than 20, their aid factor will increase
by at least $5/ capita. It is important to point out that these $1, $3, and $5 per capita aid figures apply
only to the state aid factor before adjusting for the limitations imposed by the total state aid appropriation.
Adjustments for the size of the total state aid "pot", will result in per capita minimum aid figures slightly
less or more than the $1,$3,and $5 figures. Also it should be noted that the 1, 3,5 are based on an appro-
priation amount of $64/1970 population. If that number changes, so do 1 - 3 - S.
Maximum Aid Limitation
The final state aid distribution cannot end up to be more than 151% more than the previous year's state aid
distribution. This places an absolute limit on annual aid increases.The dollars that would have been distri-
buted to those cities and towns limited to the 15% maximum are reallocated to other communities over
2500
The following is an arithmetic summary of the local revenue base formula for cities and towns over 2500
population.

Local Revenue Base for 1981 = 1980 local revenue base adjusted for inflation (annual CPI), percent popu-
and subsequent years lation increase (decreases not reflected), and special levies for capital
replacement (as noted above). One time only base adjustment for inclu-
sion of refuse collection and/or street maintenance services.
**Taxable value (includes fiscal disparities distribution) is used for the metropolitan area cities and towns.
Assessed value for outstate. These values are adjusted for differences in assessment practices by dividing
by the sales ratio. The arithmetic calculation is .01 x TV/SR.
***AEMR for 1980 aid distribution is the average of 1979, 1978, and 1977 municipal mill rates x the 1978
sales ratio. All dates are increased by one year for 1981 aid distribution and thereafter.
****If the final state aid allocation exceedsthe previous year's allocation by 15%,the amount over the 15%,
maximum is reallocated to other cities over 2500.
Note: Minneapolis to receive no increase in state aid for 1980.
Local Revenue Base Formula - Cities and Towns Under 2500
In order to simplify the local government aid formula for smaller jurisdictions, increased state aid to cities
and towns less than 2500 in population is distributed on a per capita basis.
The method used is identical to the per capita distributions chosen for cities and towns greater than 2500.
If the AEMR is less than or equal to 10,cities receive an increase of $1/capita. Towns receive $0/capita
increase (ie. they are grandfathered at last year's allocation level). This treatment of towns is consistent
with the present aid formula, which has grandfathered all towns with low mill rates at the aid level they
have received since 1974.
If the AEMR, for either a city or town, is greater than 10 and less than or equal to 20, an increase of $3/
capita is provided. If the AEMR is greater than 20, an increase of $5/capita is allocated.
No adjustments in these per capita allocations are made. All reallocations are limited to communities over
2500. As a result smaller jurisdictions will not be penalized for reductions due to the limit of the state ap-
propriation. All adjustments for overallocation will be confined to places over 2500.
As a result, all municipalities smaller than 2500 can determine far in advance what their state aid alloca-
tion will be for the forthcoming year.
:special Case - Minneapolis
In designing the new local revenue base formula the League of Cities committee also recognized that a gen-
eral purpose aid formula cannot meet the needs of all communities.There was consensus that special fiscal
problems needed to be dealt with categorically instead of through the existing state aid system.
Pensions was determined to be the most important fiscal problem in need of this type of categorical relief.
Minneapolis is the only city in the state with a local municipal (as opposed to fire and police) pension pro-
gram, It was determined that simply increasing state aids would not resolve Minneapolis' particular fiscal
problem produced by the existence of their local municipal pension program.
As a result, the League of Cities proposed combining Minneapolis municipal pension system (MERF) with
the existing statewide system (PERA). To accomplish this consolidation,the League proposes extending
the amortization date for PERA unfunded liability payments by 10 years and requesting a state appropria-
tion for retiring Minneapolis' MERF unfunded liabliity of $2 million/year.These payments would be made
directly to PERA after the MERF consolidation occured. The City of Minneapolis would continue to pay
the full "normal cost" for its PERA members who are presently members of the MERF plan. State assis-
tance would only be used to help pay off the unfunded liability.
In return for state assistance with its municipal pension plan, Minneapolis will forego state aid increases for
1980. In other words, the City of Minneapolis will receive the same state aid in 1980 as it will receive in

Special Case - Police and Fire Pension Aid
In addition to the assistance requested for Minneapolis' municipal pensions, the League of Cities also sup-
ports a state appropriation of $5 million/year to reduce the costs for local police and fire pension plans.
Thirty cities across the state still have local police and fire pension plans. This appropriation will be dis-
tributed so that the costs of these plans will be reduced and that funding ratios will improve.
Ongoing State Aid Study
The complexity of the technical analysis necessary to evaluate the state aid program was also recognized
by the League of Cities committee. Extensive computer analysis is the only method available for adequate
study.The League proposes that the state appropriate $100,000 for the '80 - '81 biennium to conduct an
ongoing study of the proposed new local revenue base formula. Such a study should be conducted jointly
by a state agency (State Planning, Revenue Department,or Tax Study Commission) and the League of
Cities. Such a study should be designed to build upon the existing knowledge and computer capability
developed by the League of Cities.

TO: _ Industrial Commercial Commission Members
FROM:Marge Henderson, Chairman
SUBJECT: Luncheon meeting with Chamber Board
DATE: April 12 , 1979
Attached is a position statement on the Comprehensive Plan adopted
by the Shakopee Chamber of Commerce Board at their meeting April 9 , 1979 .
We will be having a joint luncheon meeting with the Chamber of Commerce
Board on Monday , April 16 , 1979 at noon at the Shakopee House in the
downstairs lounge . At that time we will also be reviewing the proposal
for the new Shakopee Brochure . It is imperative that we have good
attendance to make some decisions regarding this matter.
•� Working Paper
Shakopee Chamber of Commerce
Response to the City of Shakopee Proposed Comprehensive Plan
The Shakopee Chamber of Commerce representing the business community of
the City of Shakopee, would like to take the opportunity to respond to the
proposed comprehensive plan that has been prepared by the City Staff and officials
and was presented to a public hearing in February.
The following areas of concern have been discussed by the Chamber's Com-
prehensive Plan Committee:
1. De-Centralization of the Retail Area by the addition of Satellite Business
Areas.
The Committee feels that there is adequate expansion possibilities within
the proposed B-3 (Downtown Business) and B-1 (Highway Business) areas out-
lined in the proposed plan without the addition of a B-2 (Community Business)
area east of Marschall Road and south of Fourth Avenue.
The Committee expressed the concern that the possibility of a new business
area outside of the present downtown area does not provide the incentive
necessary for the positive growth and redevelopment of the present downtown
core and highway strip. By providing for new business areas to develop,
the committee is convinced that the further decentralization of the retail
community will only harm all businesses, no matter where they are located.
The Committee also proposed that should the proposed downtown core area and
highway business strip along First Avenue not be adequate in terms of avail-
able land, the area could expand southward into the proposed R-3 area south
of Second Avenue.
The Committee did feel that commercial development on both sides of Marschall
Road to County Road 16 and the proposed Business area west of Marschall Road
and south of Fourth Avenue should be encouraged in order to provide convenience
types of business for the proposed R-4 area running east from Marschall Road.
The remainder of the B-2 area east of such a strip development on Marschall
Road should be designated I-1 rather than B-2.
The Committee further felt that the proposed B-2 zoning for the By-pass
intersection at County Road 17 should be located rather at the intersection
of the By-pass and County Road 83. It was felt that the County Road 17 inter-
section would encourage traffic and noise in a residential area, whereas the
County Road 83 intersection would be able to service the traffic from the
industrial park as well as the eastern residential developments.
2. Encouragement of Residential Development
The Committee strongly endorsed the proposed new sewer line running south
and west through the Hauers Addition. The resultant new housing would pro-
vide new residents who are essential to the development of new business and
industry in the Shakopee area.
The proposed R-3 area south of Second Avenue and the R-4 area east of Marschall
Road will both provide positive growth patterns to Shakopee with a resultant
benefit to the retail and business community of Shakopee.

3. Rezoning of property presently zoned Industrial 'in the Industrial Park
The Committee expressed concern about the possible negative business
repercussions that might develop by the action of zoning land previously
designated industrial and now proposed agricultural. This action may make
developers looking at Shakopee uncertain about the committment of the City
to its adopted plan and influence their decision to locate in the Shakopee
area.
These recommendations are for presentation to the Shakopee Chamber of
Commerce Board of Directors at their April 9 meeting. A definitive response
to the plan must be adopted at that meeting as that response will be reviewed
with the Industrial Commission on April 16 for possible .joint concerns. A
final response will be presented to the City of Shakopee as the Chamber's
formal presentation before April 25.

MEMO TO : Douglas Reeder , City Administrator
FROM: Henry R. Spurrier , City Engineer
SUBJECT: Water Service to the Minnesota Valley Restoration
DATE: April 27 , 1979
Pursuant to your request I have prepared a preliminary estimate of the
cost of serving the Minnesota Valley Restoration Project with adequate
water service for fire protection.
The problem is perhaps best compared to the "chicken-egg" problem.
What I have proposed is a water system that will provide approximately
2 , 500 gallons per minute of fire flow. Based on ordinary construction
and average exposure that provides fire flow for a building that
has no more than a total 10,000 square feet and is at lease 50 feet
from adjacent structures . If larger facilities are required, then
a more sophisticated water system will be required . I have not estimated
the cost of a more sophisticated system.
The future development is for the proposed Interpretive Center. If
that Center exceeds the parameters I have outlined then another
highway crossing and an additional 700 feet of watermain will be
required .
I have also estimated the cost to the City, assuming that the land
through which the watermain was extended is "Green Acred" .
The project could be constructed in two phases . The first phase would
consist of a watermain extention from Fourth Avenue to the Minnesota
Valley Restoration site and then westerly through the site . , The
second phase would be whatever work was necessary to serve the Inter-
pretive Center . The first phase would cost an estimated $320,900.00
of which the City share would be $98 , 700.00. The second phase would
cost approximately $82 ,400.00, or more , depending on the size of the
Interpretive Center.

Page 2 - 1978 Swimming Pool
As you can see , the experience has not been good frcm a profit and
loss standpoint . I think that the last two years show the extreme!
in weather conditions . 1976 was a very hot summer and season tick-
et sales were very high. Tctal attendence for open swimming was
46, 364 people . As it turned out , the pool did come close to break-
ing even. The City made adjustments in the fees that would have
gotten the pool into the profit column. The changes made in swim-,
ming lessons and concession sales did work as planned. The swim-
ming lessons made a profit of $780. 7C and the concessions made a
profit of $39 . 91 . The bad news is that open swimming lost $3 , 785 . 63 :
The total loss for the pool was $2 , 964. 97 . There was cool weather
at the beginning of the year and seascn tickets were down substan-
tially. Open swimming attendence for 1977 was 29 , 156 people - only
63% of the 1976 attendence. Season tickets were raised $2 .00 in
1977 but I don' t believe this was the major cause of the decline .
My reasoning is based on the fact that season tickets were raised
$4 .00 in 1976 and the City sold 25 more tickets that year. A com-
parison of past ticket sales is shown below.
1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 Est .
Season Tick.-Fam. 526-$22 503-$22 528-$26 431-$28 300-$28
1200-$31
Season Tick.-Indv. 66-$14 64-$14 98-$15 75-$15 50-$15
X30-$16
Guest Ticket 7-$5 14-$5 3-$7 4-$7 7-$7
Lessons 1169 1160 1059 932 960
The significant drop in attendence also hurt the concession stand .
More swimmexs would have bought more candy, but the labqr costs would
have been the same .
The recommended 1978 budget is a break-even operation., This was
achieved by the following changes :
1 . A significant drop in hours of operation
The 1978 schedule calls for open swimming from 1 :00 p .m. to
4 : 30 p .m. and 6 : 30 p.m. to 8 : 30 p.m. There would be no open
swimming on Sunday evenings (6 : 30 p.m. to 8: 30 p.m. ) . In
1977 , the Fool was open until 5 :00 p.n.. and 9:00 p.m. seven
days a week.
2 . An anticipated increase in the number of season tickets.
The estimate of 500 family tickets is based on the average
of the four previous years (497 tickets) . The season ticket
fee will remain the same if purchased prior to June 1st „
After that date , the fee will be $31 for a family ticket:
and $16 for an individual . I am "guessing" that 300 family
tickets would be sold in May and 200 in June . Approximately
105 family tickets were sold in May of last year.
Page 3 - 1978 Swimming Pool
3 . The Minnesota Correctional Institution will be charged
a flat rate of $12 .00 per evening when they swim over
the supper hour . This covers our costs .
Conclusion
The key to the entire budget is the attendence . If season tickets
are as estimated , the pool should do all right . The labor costs
are based on a staffing level and number of hours worked that can
handle a warm summer and high attendence . The breakdown of the
1978 budget gives an estimated loss of $382 for open swimming, a
profit of $116 for lessons and a profit of $337 for concessions.
Expenditures can' t be cut any closer . Revenue may be better depend-
ing on the number of season tickets . If season ticket sales for
families are considerably under 500 on June 15th, the City will have
to seriously consider closing the pool on a second night . The 1978
budget does not include any park department labor costs . Fees will
have to be raised if the City wants to cover those costs .
My recommendation is that the City Council adopt the attached 1978
fee schedule and hours of operation for the Swimming Pool .

SUBJECTSummer Hours for City Hall
DATE: April 26 , 1979
It is recommended that summer hours again be established for City
Hall beginning May 29th. The proposed hours would be 7 : 30 A.M. to
4:00 P.M.
We had no problem last year with these hours and I feel that it is
a good change for the employees and does not interfere with the conduction
of City business .

DATE: April 26 , 1979
In keeping with the past precedent , I request the City Council
to approve payment of the inter-fund payable/receivable contained in
the 1977 Annual Financial Report . These are routine items and approval
is desired to satisfy auditors requirements because the 1977 books have
been closed. If further explaination is desired by the Council , I feel
it more appropriate to do it in person at the May 1 , 1979 meeting.
Action required: Motion to approve transfer of funds to satisfy 1977
inter-fund payable and receivable.

Dear Doug:
Please accept this letter as an understanding between the City and IRC Planners
as to the services provided in assisting Shakopee in the planning for O'Dowds
Lake Park.
Having attended both the joint City Council/Planning Commission/Recreation Board
meeting and a staff meeting Wednesday afternoon with George and Dave, I now
recommend accepting the enclosed work program which outlines the work tasks
delineation and sequence.
If this program is accepted, I furthermore recommend the staff understand the
program, make an assessment of staff capabilities to perform tasks as described
and develop a realistic cost estimate to carry the program out.
From initial staff discussion, I envision IRC Planners as completing Step 2
(developing alternative park development graphics) after the city staff succes-
sfully completes Step 1 (collection of site analysis data at a consistent scale)
based on the following costs:
a. landscape designer (Rankin) analysis and layout time at
$17 per hour at 6 hrs. per concept $306.00
b. planner (Riesenberg) analysis and two staff meetinqs at
$25 per hour at 8 hrs. 200.00
506.00
At direction from your office, any additional work IRC Planners would perform
will be charged at the following rates.
planner (Riesenberg) $25/hr
landscape designer (Rankin) $17/hr
typing $10/hr
Time period for completion of step 2 would be 3-4 weeks upon notification
to proceed.
Please call with any questions. The three plan graphics as discussed over the
phone are enclosed.
Respectfully submitted,

SUBJECT: O ' Dowd Lake Study
DATE : April 26 , 1979
It is requested that the City Council authorize the expenditure of
up to $600 to prepare a study of the alternative park concepts for
O' Dowd Lake . Attached is a proposal from Chuck Riesenberg, which
I believe will give the O 'Dowd Lake Committee a good basis to do

it to be advantageous to all concerned to process this through
the City . The City will issue the Purchase Order and the Jaycees
will reimburse the City . Project cost is $9 ,989 . 50, which is
the lowest of three quotes received and is from a local company.
This is consistent with previous joint ventures . Council

Mr. Walt C. Harbeck APR 2 7 1979
Mayor, City of Shakopee
129 E. First Avenue CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Shakopee, Minnesota 55379
Dear Mr. Harbeck:
J. L. SHIELY COMPANY, P.A. 67-172
Thank you for your inquiry concerning the water appropriation permit
issued to the J.L. Shiely Company for dewatering of its limestone pit
operation in or near Shakopee.
The initial permit issued in 1967 was amended in 1968 authorizing a
pumpage rate of 7000 gpm and a total annual pumpage of 1814.4 million
gallons per year. This is the rate and amount authorized today.
Our records indicate complaints were received regarding this operation
beginning in 1971, however, investigation found that dewatering of the
pit should not affect the water resources of the area. Periodic com-
plaints were received up through the drought year of 1976 when the
number of complaints increased all expressing concern over the effect
the dewatering was having on Deans Lake.
As a result of these complaints, investigation continued. An aquifer
test was conducted in September of 1978 to evaluate ground water con-
ditions near Deans Lake and the impact of the dewatering operations
of the Shiely pit. Analysis of the test again indicated that although
the dewatering operation affected the potentiometric surface of the
Prairie du Chien-Jordan formation, no hydraulic connection between this
formation and the ground water table could be established. Thus, Deans
Lake would not be affected.
Because Shiely Company was exceeding the annual authorized water usage,
a request was made to amend the permit and increase the annual usage
to 2,500 million gallons. Due to the complaints of the water level
of Deans Lake, it did not appear prudent to grant this request without
further investigation even though investigation to date could find no
connection between the dewatering operation and levels in Deans Lake.
On the other hand, severe action to suspend the appropriation permit
could not be justified since an impact on the ground water table could
not be identified.
AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER

tU=g
Mr. Walt C. Harbeck

April 19, 1979
It is anticipated that disposition on the request of Shiely Company to
increase its authorized annual pumpage to 2,500 million gallons per year
will be forthcoming no later than May 11, 1979. Such disposition will
address matters of the Deans Lake levels, monitoring procedures to be
implemented to be assured that affects aren't extending beyond the
P-airie du Chien-Jordan formation, and the specific amount of increase
of water pumpage which will be authorized.
As you can appreciate, this matter is quite complex and not easy to
resolve. The disposition made on this matter will impact all interests
which have been involved in the past several years. Thus, it is extremely
important the decision made is based on the best possible information
and has considered all possible aspects.
To conclude, we appreciate the cooperation the City of Shakopee has given
us the past several years concerning this matter and can understand your
concern. You will be kept advised of further developments regarding this
matter.
Yours truly,
Joseph N. Alexander

REES REPORTER - APRIL 1979
TO: Local Elected Leaders and Administrators
FROM: State Representative Tom Rees - District 36B
365 State Office Building
Saint Paul, Minnesota 55155 (612)296-6926
Spring is close at hand and in the legislature we are on the downward side
of the 1979 Legislative Session.
Here is an update on issues which concern us:
Gasoline
Minnesota's gasoline supplies directly relate to available crude oil supplies.
In the first quarter of 1979, the four refineries which serve our state ran
at capacity. By June, however, the Minnesota Energy Agency (MEA) projects
the loss of 20,000 barrels per day of Canadian crude oil. Projections also
indicate a drop of 30,000 to 60,000 barrels per day of Alaskan oil. The
result: potentially a 16 per cent reduction of the state's gasoline supply.
Our agricultural gasoline requirements will be satisfied, although there
may be some time delays in delivery. The commuters living in the district
will probably feel the greatest pinch in their budgets as the price responds
to the diminished supply. The enclosed bar graph is from the MEA and depicts
our crude oil supply situation.
Metropolitan Council
I have introduced H.F. 952 which would allow challenge by local units of
government to comprehensive plans by the public hearing process.
Emergency Temporary General Assistance
H.F. 1310 has been introduced which would limit emergency temporary general
assistance grants by the county to 30 days during any 12 month period unless
the local agency determines that substantial hardship would result from a
denial of emergency assistance. The Director of Human Services in Scott
County brought to our attention the loophole which would allow continuous
application to the county for assistance without use of other programs. We
hope for early passage.
Wood
The Subcommittee on Alternative Energy, which I chair, will be investigating
all the different studies and efforts that various state agencies are engaged.
First view leads me to believe that at least ten different departments and/or
divisions of state government are studying energy feasibility of wood in one
form or another. We will attempt to make the Minnesota Energy Agency a
clearinghouse for all the efforts within the state to stop duplicative studies.
Major River Crossing
The Bridge Bonding Bill is moving through the legislative process. An amend-
ment to the House and Senate versions allow the discretion of the Commissioner
of the Department of Transportation for providing funds for Environmental
Impact Statements, such as needed for the Bloomington Ferry Bridge replacement
project.
REES REPORTER - Page 2
Prior Lake Improvement
A bill asking for up to $500,000 as matching funds to stabilize the Prior
Lake level will be heard soon in the Appropriations Committee.
Class Size - K-3 Enhancement Philosophy
From those of you, particularly in the education community and other elected
officials, I would appreciate your comments on the Governor's Education pro-
posals.
Taxes
Hopefully within a month the tax and appropriation measures will be taking
shape. You will be reading about some political games being played with
taxes, I would appreciate your cognizance of the politics before the real
substance of the programs are presented and debated.
Stadium
The repeal of the two per cent liquor tax is completed. The legislature,
however, is still not through with the stadium issue. Please keep me in-

TO: Mayors, City Managers and City Clerks
We cordially invite you to join your municipal colleagues from throughout the state at the League's next Annual
Conference, an exciting three day session at the Radisson South.The Conference Steering Committee has cho-
sen the theme "Entering The '80's;Challenge To The Cities" as the theme of the conference. Three special
workshops will be offered on Wednesday. Thursday's general conference will open with a lively legislative de-
bate at the general breakfast, with the annual meeting being held at 2:00,followed by a mock council meeting.
This is Minnesota's version of the popular National League of Cities council training and development session.
It is followed by a reception buffet in the Rad isson Grand Ballroom.
Friday is jam-packed with 12 workshops. A workshop track on Cities and the Challenge of the Media will be
offered to provide practical advice and strategies for the local official in dealing with the Media. Friday also .
features numerous workshops on the nuts and bolts of city government.
Advance conference registrations can be made through this office. ($60 for general delegate registration or $20
for the Small Cities Day,or they can be purchased at the conference ($65 for general delegate registration or
$23 for Small Cities Day).
We encourage you to make advance registrations to assist us in providing you with the best facilities and pro-
grams possible. Registration will be required for all those attending any session of the conference. It is neces-
sary that all city delegates pay the registration fees in order that we might meet the financial burdens necessary
to finance the conference.
The League's enabling act (M.S. 465.58, Subd. 1) permits the use of municipal funds to pay for attendance at
League meetings as well as League dues.
Enclosed you will find a conference registration form, a Housing Reservation Form, and a special Spouse Invi-
tation Form.
Make your plans now to attend the 65th Annual Conference of the League of Minnesota Cities for a learning
experience that will assist you in your job as a municipal official.
