SUBJECT: Study Session — Land Acquisition Northwest Plymouth
Attached for Council review is some of the technical information we'll be presenting at the
Tuesday night Special Study session regarding land acquisition in northwest Plymouth.
Information in the packet relates to what we currently own and operate as our playfield system
and why we see the need for future expansion. Because of our limited time on Tuesday night, we
will need to move very quickly through this data to allow the Council time to ask questions and
give direction to staff on how to proceed. Because we are just in the beginning process of
updating the comprehensive plan, there is some technical data that we won't be able to review
until the land use guiding has been determined. by the City Council.

rsevs clutched rosin bags like
Torry heads. Proud parents ner-
ously looked on.
Yet for many bowlers, some -
ung still was missing.
We're treated like a second -
lass sport," said Greg Seath,
junior at Mankato West, the
003 state champion. "It's not
ven treated like a sport by some
eople, but it should be."
The Bowling Proprietors As-
ciation of Minnesota (BPAM)
as been making that pitch for
to better part of a decadewith-
ut success.
Two springs ago, a proposal to
inction bowling fell four votes
tort of the two-thirds needed
tong the league's 90 -member
presentative assembly. The
Iain concern was finances.
After the state's bowling pro-
rietors pledged to keep provid-
tg free lanes for practices and
Leets, the proposal reappeared
to next year — and failed by
ane votes.
Kenn Rockier, executive di-
ctor of BPAM, said athletic di-
ctors were concerned about
tturday youth bowling leagues
ting afoul of the "independent
ay" rule, which forbids high
hool players from taking part
outside competition during
e season.
In light of that hangup, "I
n't think there would be a
ranee of passing it this [spring];
to want to use yo ur energy in a
sitive way," Rockler said.

i ,,,i,,,c e Breoi:, > ,1,:: a. i ,d
That's ironic in his viev,. On -
til recently, Minnesota has been
a leader in high school bowling,
with BPAM sponsoring club
bowling for the past 24 years and
95 coed teams dotting the state.
Meanwhile, 14 states — many
with nascent club programs
already have made bays' and
girls' bowling a varsity sport.
Another, less -voiced con-
cern might have hurt bowling's
chances.
I hate to say it, but some
people think bowling is all
about smoking and drinking,"
said Josh Hodney, BPAM's as-
sociate director. "That's not
the case. During matches, no
smoking or alcohol is allowed
near the lanes."
Without league sanctioning,
most school districts — an esti-
mated 60 to 70 percent — aren't
willing to give bowling varsity
status.
That's the case at Maple Grove.
Although its club team won the
2004 state title, the school didn't
hold a pep assembly to celebrate
because "you anger more people
by forgetting something," athlet-
ic director Mark Corless said. "We
have a paintball group. Ultimate
Frisbees trying to get going. And
that's just off the top of my head
here."
Which is Rockler's very
Point.
Sanctioning legitimizes the
sport," he said. "There's a differ-
ence between belonging to a
bowling drib and officially rep-
resenting your high school."
Lacwosseo Booming
Dan Forsyth remembers
the day he watched the NCAA
lacrosse championship on TV
and thought: "That looks like
fun." Then a freshman and dis-
enchanted baseball player at
Armstrong, Forsyth decided to
try lacrosse and spent a season
playing for the Hopkins club
team. The next year, he and his
dad, Mike, contacted a coach
and started a club at Armstrong.
Seventy boys showed up on
signup day.
Three years later, Armstrong
has three boys' lacrosse squads
varsity, JV and freshman/
sophomore — plus four volun-
teer coaches, a lacrosse board
and a booster club.
All told, Minnesota has 46
boys' club programs, with six
more starting this spring. Cur-
rently, a Sunday night winter
league is underway.
Girls' lacrosse was sanc-
tioned by the MSHSL three
years ago, but the boys are still
waiting.
It's growing; there are newpro-
grams popping up every year," said
Forsyth, a midfielder being court-
ed by several Division I schools.
Eventually it'll happen."
For Forsyth, sanctioning is
more about fields than legiti-
macy or varsity letters. Because
Armstrong was concerned that

lacrosse would chew up the
grass field in its stadium, For-
syth's squad had to practice in
a community center gym for a
month, then moved to a park
field without fines.
In the fall of 2003, boys' la-
crosse looked to be a shoo-in
for sanctioning. Howard Rogers,
executive director of Minnesota
Lacrosse Association, had spent
the previous year lobbying the
leagues assembly.
But at its November meeting,
seven of my yesses were out
with the flu," he said, and the
proposal fell two votes shy of the
two-thirds majority needed.
At the same meeting, the as-
sembly changed the timing for
the approval process — mean-
ing boys' lacrosse can't compete
as an MSHSL-sponsored sport
until 2006 at the earliest. The
proposal is expected to be ap-
proved for consideration at the
league's mid-Maymeeting.
The main objections among
athletic directors and coaches
who voted against the proposal
came down to finances. They
worried that schools would be
forced to start lacrosse teams
with start-up costs of more
than $11,000 — and that fields
would get ruined.
Rogers countered that
schools are under no obliga-
tion to start lacrosse teams
and that the sport doesn't tear
up fields anymore than soccer
does. As for budget issues: "We
understand the climate; every-
thing is desperate," he said.
But we're willing to dig into
our pockets."
Meanwhile the burgeoning
sport is becoming more diffi-
cult every year to manage by a
statewide association made up
of volunteer coaches.
We should have been var-
sity a couple years ago, when
we had 30 teams," Rogers said.
Now, we're nearly double that,
and we'll be another third great-
er than that by 2006. It's hard to
get your arms around it."
Loss of freedom
In spite of all the good that
league sanctioning would bring,
even hicrosss aAicionadnssee a
diiwbackar two.
The biggest: ?' e', tdniit.cicirtte
coaches also would have limits
placed on offseason coaching
and clinics.
Under the current setup,
you have more leniency and
less rules," said Ian Flam, a
Wayzata coach and the com-
munications officer for the Min-
neso to Boys' Scholastic Lacrosse
Association.
Likewise, some bowlers —
and bowling proprietors — see
a downside to sanctioning. Not
only would league supervision
take away autonomy, it could lead
to the end of coed high school
teams because schools could field
an all -female team if enough girls
go out for the sport.
Personally, I'm fine with it not
being sanctioned just because we
have such a good team with both
boys and girls," said Amber Geh-
rke, a Mankato West junior. "We
have such a variety. I like that."
For sports even further on the
fringe, freedom is exactly what
makes their sport appealing.
While there are 29 boys' and
girls' high school rugby teams
in the metro area, sanctioning
isn't necessarily what we want
to see happen," said Guy Wray,
Wayzata's girls' rugby coach and
communications director for
the Minnesota Amateur Rugby
Foundation.
Because rugby has no tryouts
or cuts, it draws kids who might
feel disenfranchised by the high
school system. What's more, if it
did become sanctioned, "then
we would be required to coach'x'
days a week to comply," Wray said.
As volunteers, we dont necessar-
fly have the time to do that"
Ultimate Frisbee finds itself
in a similar situation. With 20
coed club teams in Minnesota,
We're still in our infancy," said
Eden Prairie co-head coach Mi-
chael Stanefski. "Frankly, we're
still trying to get organized, get
out some of the kinks."
If the sport grows enough to
consider seeking league over-
sight, its self -officiated games
could pose a challenge. Unlike
most other sports, ultimate Fris-
bee players are on their honor
not to cheat.
Once it's all governed," Sta-
netski said, "the more con, ro-
mised that could get."

SUBJECT: Study Session — Land Acquisition Northwest Plymouth
Attached for Council review is some of the technical information we'll be presenting at the
Tuesday night Special Study session regarding land acquisition in northwest Plymouth.
Information in the packet relates to what we currently own and operate as our playfield system
and as we see the need for future expansion. Because of our limited time on Tuesday night, we
will need to move very quickly through this data to allow the Council time to ask questions and
give direction to staff on how to proceed. Because we are just in the beginning process of
updating the comprehensive plan, there is some technical data that we won't be able to review
until the land use guiding has been determined by the City Council.
EB/np
Park Dedication Fee Fact Sheet
By statute, cities "...may require that a reasonable portion of any proposed subdivision be dedicated to the
public or preserved for conservation purposes or for public use as parks, recreation
facilities... playgrounds, trails, wetlands, or open space...". Statute also states that a ..."municipality may
choose to accept an equivalent amount in cash from the applicant for part or all of the portion required to
be dedicated to such public uses or purposes based on the fair market value of the land...".
In order to follow the statute, the City of Plymouth developed a formula for park dedication fees based on
a benchmark of land per capita and market value for the land. Based on the 2000 Comprehensive Plan,
the City determined that existing parkland and open space amounted to .0183 acres per capita. This
amount was adopted as the standard for future park land need, and has since been utilized to determine the
amount of land that should be required for donation, or the required cash fee in lieu of land.
The park dedication fee (currently $4,000 maximum per dwelling unit) paid in each development may
vary. Different housing types have different average household sizes. Single family detached dwellings
are estimated to average 3.1 persons per unit. Duplexes and townhomes are estimated to average 2
persons per unit. Multi -family dwellings are estimated to average 1.9 persons per unit. The total
expected population in each development is multiplied by the per capita share (.0183) to determine how
much land is required. The resulting number - the acres of land required for that development - is then
multiplied by the current land value to determine the maximum cash donation in lieu of land, up to the
maximum amount per unit established by the City (currently $4,000). The following table shows several
examples of the maximum per unit fee for various housing types and land values if the $4,000 maximum
were not in existence:
Maximum Potential Fee

3,477
11,346
6,954

Since land prices are now in the $200,000 to $300,000 range, it is clear that the City can justify a higher
rate than $4,000 based on the need for park land created by residential development. However, there is
the practical consideration of how much the market will consider generally acceptable. The following is a
list of park dedication fees for Plymouth and other cities:

SUBJECT: Potential Park System Projects and Financing
DATE: March 8, 2006
1. ACTION REQUESTED:
Evaluate this report and place the issue of future park system projects and financing on a future
City Council study session agenda for further consideration.
2. BACKGROUND:
The Park and Recreation department has prepared a list of projects that they would like to
accomplish to finish off the park system for the City of Plymouth (see Attachment I). Some of
these items may change, be added to, or be eliminated as part of the Comprehensive Plan
process. However, they currently represent the best menu of potential projects available.
In addition, the Park and Recreation and Administrative Services departments have attempted to
estimate revenues that may be available to pay for these projects (see Attachment II). Once
again, these revenue estimates may change significantly based on decisions made in the
Comprehensive Plan process. These projections can be compared in total to see if the list of
projects is reasonable in total. These projections must also be compared from a timing
perspective to see if the projects can be adequately cashflowed.
The figures developed for this report rely heavily on a great number of assumptions regarding
land costs, land donation vs. fee collection, park dedication fee amounts, inflation, ultimate land
use, community needs and others. In general we feel the report is fairly accurate with the
understanding that the margin of error is potentially in the $1,000,000 plus range.
3. DISCUSSION:
Expenditures
The list of potential projects (Attachment I) includes items already contained in the CIP (bold.) as
well as items which were omitted from the CIP due to timing or cost considerations. The items
contained in the CIP are projected to cost approximately $5,150,000 and it is projected that these
items can be adequately financed with funds on hand, plus projected park dedication fees
received in the next five year period.
The other projects on the list include: development costs for six neighborhood parks (the
assumption is that the land — approximately 40 acres - will be donated); additional cost for
acquisition of the
10th
play -field due to rising land prices; possible acquisition of an additional 20
acres for the 10th play -field; development of 15 miles of trails; acquisition of approximately 23
acres of land for the Northwest Greenway Corridor (it is assumed that about 30 acres of trail
corridor will be donated); development of the Northwest Greenway Corridor; 10th playfield
development; West Med Park building; Parker's Lake pavilion upgrade; Zachary Park program
building; skate park; and tennis dome. In total, this list represents projects with a cumulative
total cost of $38 million.
Revenues
Attachment II, which projects park dedication fee revenues, consists of three separate tables
illustrating three separate scenarios. The first scenario is based on the Metropolitan Council's
estimates on household growth for the City of Plymouth. The Met Council projects that
Plymouth will add 6,000 households between 2005 and 2030 with specific targets in 2010 and
2020. Based on this information, a computation of land donation vs. fee revenues, and a
projection of fee increases, the first scenario estimates revenues of $5.3 million by 2010, $22.5
million by 2020 and $45.6 million by 2030. If this scenario is correct the City would receive
more than enough revenue from the Park Dedication Fund to eventually pay for all the items in
the Potential Parks Projects list.
The second scenario reflects what could potentially happen if the City of Plymouth chooses to
develop at a lower density than desired by the Met Council. This scenario projects a total of
5,000 new households by 2030. Based on this information, the second scenario estimates
revenues of $3.3 million by 2010, $17.8 million by 2020, and $36.8 million by 2030. If this
scenario is correct the City would receive just about enough revenue from the Park Dedication
Fund to pay for all the items in the Potential Park Projects list.
The third scenario reflects what could happen if the City of Plymouth chooses to develop at an
even lower density. This scenario projects a total of 4,000 new households by 2030. Based on
this information, the third scenario estimates revenues of $23 million by 2010, $14 million by
2020, and $26.4 million by 2030. If this scenario is correct, the City would not receive enough
revenue from the Park Dedication Fund to pay for all the items on the Potential Park Projects list.
All of these scenarios are greatly affected by a number of assumptions. One of the primary
assumptions is the park dedication fee. Currently, the fee is $4,000 per unit for residential
property. Several other communities have fees that are considerably higher than $4,000. In
addition, a model based on land costs of $150,000 per acre and 6,000 new units suggests that a
fee of up to $6,400 could be justified, When the model is nm based on land costs of $200,000
per acre and 4,000 new units it suggests that a fee of up to $9,300 could be justified. The
Council may wish to become more aggressive in raising park dedication fees which would
greatly impact the amount of revenues that would be received.
2
Cashflows
For the most part, development costs are assumed to increase at the rate of inflation (3%). Land
costs are quite another matter. Raw land prices in Plymouth have increased dramatically over the
years. The attached table (Attachment III) shows the escalation of land prices since 1969. From
1969 to 2005 land prices have gone up an average of 13% per year. However, there has been a
recent spike in land prices both inside and outside the MUSA area, and in adjacent areas such as
Maple Grove. Land speculation by developers who believe that development will be allowed in
NW Plymouth, as a result of Comprehensive Plan modifications, is well underway. Any actual
change in the Comprehensive Plan may cause land values to shoot even higher. To provide some
perspective, land is currently going for over $300,000 per acre in Maple Grove for property that
is served by sewer and water. Other areas of Plymouth are seeing '/2 acre lots served by streets
and utilities going for nearly $500,000.
Given the rapidly increasing price of land, it is clear that land acquisition should be a priority, if
the City does desire to add a 10th Playfield and create a Northwest Greenway Corridor. On the
bottom of Attachment I there is a breakout entitled "Select Land Acquisition". This breaks out
the cost of land acquisition for the 10th
Playfield (40 acres only) plus the Northwest Greenway.
The cost per acre for the 10th Playfield has been held at $200,000 per acre since negotiations are
currently underway. The cost of land for the Northwest Greenway has been inflated from the
current price of $200,000 per acre by 15% per year and is projected to be acquired in 2007, 2008,
and 2009. In total, it is estimated that it will cost approximately $14,000,000 to acquire the 10th
Playfield and Northwest Greenway. Of this amount, $4,000,000 is already programmed into the
CIP and is funded by monies currently in the Capital Improvement Fund, Community
Improvement Fund, and Park Dedication Fund, as well as park dedication proceeds that will
hopefully be received over the next 5 years. This leaves a shortfall of approximately
10,000,000 if only land, and the other items contained in the CIP, are done in the 2006-2010
timeframe.
A ItPrnativPc
To solve this cashflow issue the City has only a few alternatives. Most available reserves have
already been spoken for which leads to the conclusion that some form of debt must be utilized.
There are two reasonable debt alternatives for the acquisition of the 10th Playfield and Northwest
Greenway: 1) General Obligation debt backed by a tax levy on the taxable market value of the
City (requires referendum), and 2) Annual Appropriation Lease Revenue Bonds backed by future
park dedication fees (does not require a referendum).
The single most important consideration when evaluating these two alternatives is to answer the
question of who should be paying to support the debt service (and ultimately the land purchase).
There are several items to consider including: who will use the facilities, historical precedents,
and the purpose of fees being collected.
When evaluating the 10th Playfield we would argue that this facility is primarily required to serve
the new residents who will be moving into NW Plymouth as it develops. Consequently, it would
seem reasonable that the new residents should pay for that facility with the park dedication fees
that they generate vs. usage of a general tax levy paid for by all residents, including those who
have already paid for playfields located in other areas of the community Park dedication fees are
authorized for the acquisition, development and expansion of park facilities necessary to serve
new development. Therefore, use of these fees to acquire the 10`1' Playfield would seem to be a
good fit.
When evaluating the NW Greenway we would argue that this is primarily open space that
benefits the community as a whole. Consequently, the acquisition of this property should be paid
for by the City as a whole. This has been the City's past practice. The last time the City acquired
open space it was paid for by $2,235,000 of GO bonds issued in 1995.
When making the decision to issue debt, the City must remain cognizant that this will likely not
be the only debt that will be issued by the City :in the not too distant future. It is likely that the
City may have to issue some debt for future street reconstruction projects, a fourth fire station,
and reconstruction/expansion of streets such as Vicksburg Lane, CR 47, and possibly others.
Summary
If the City desires to acquire land for a 10'h
Playfield and NW Greenway in the near future it may
make sense to issue two separate bond issues. 'The first would be an Annual Appropriation Lease
Revenue Bond for the 10`h Playfield. This would enable the City to use future park dedication
fees to pay for the purchase of the property. If a portion of the funds currently earmarked for use
in the purchase of the 10`h playfield were used, the bond issue could be bought down to
approximately $6,000,000. The remainder of the proceeds could be transferred into the Park
Dedication Fund to cashflow debt service and other park dedication funded projects. Two
examples of cashflows are attached (see Attachment IV).
If this option is acceptable it could be done fairly quickly without waiting for a referendum in
November of this year. This could result in more favorable sales terms.
The second bond issue would be a General Obligation bond issue for purchase of the portion of
the NW Greenway not likely to be acquired through land dedication. It has been the City's past
practice to purchase open space with GO issues which results in the spreading of the cost on all
taxable market value in the City. If a GO bond is pursued, it would require that the item be
placed on the ballot as a referendum question at either the November, 2006 or 2007 general
elections. The date for notification of the County for intent to place an item on the ballot is
September 1.5 of each year.
If a GO bond were issued for the approximately $6,000,000 cost of acquiring the NW Greenway
Corridor, it would result in an annual levy of $23.14 for an average valued home of $356,200
see Attachment V). This would be at least partially offset by the maturity of the current open
space bond which matures in 2010. This maturity will free up approximately $10.77 of levy
from the average valued home for other uses (which may not be parks related).
4. BUDGET IMPACT:
Any action taken to increase the authorized costs or change funding sources for acquisition of the
10th
Playfield and NW Greenway will require an amendment to the 2006-2010 CIP.

5. RECOMMENDATION:
The scope and funding of future park system projects is a complex issue with potentiai long-term
ramifications. Due to market conditions, and deadlines for submission of ballot referendum
questions, it is important that staff receive some timely direction on which course(s) of action to
pursue to ensure the future that the City Council desires. Consequently, staff would recommend
that the City Council place the issue of future park projects and financing on a future study
session agenda for more detailed analysis and consideration.
