Page 7 SlarTrlbuna 1: am IP -16 A Range Of Benefits Drive Attractive Communities P opular communities seem to have it all: good schools, short commutes, beautiful homes with reasonable prices, nearby entertainment, recreation and shopping, and the feeling of a traditional neighborhood. These can be found in established neighborhoods and in a new development meticulously planned to have that neighborly feeling. No Place Like Plymouth CNN Money Magazine chose Plymouth last year as the country's best small city in which to live for all those reasons and mote. Even before the story came out„people were migrating to Plymouth, according to Dawn Ohiistad, an agent who�works' with her husband, Jim Ohnstad, at Coldwell Banker Burnet in Wayzata. Despite the publicity, home sellers in Plymouth have continued to price their homes reasonably and Ohnstad has noticed competition among _ buyers. "It has been like that even through the challenging market,” she says. "We've had several buyers in Plymouth over the last year who have had to move quickly to get the house the% want at full price." The city's housing stock, affordability, appearance and location make it attractive. "Plvmouth has a nice blend of houses that are not too old and not too new," Ohnstad says. "Many neighborhoods in Plymouth have character and manure landscaping, even for the under - $350,000." Many students attend N%avzata public schools, another draw. And the median home price is about $289,000. "It's a great combination of things people look for in a smaller town without the cost of an Edina or Wayzata, for example." Ohnstad says. "It's more affordable in Plymouth to have all those things." South Of The River The developer of Cobblestone Lake in Apple Valley has strived to achieve that same feeling in a new community. Planned to accommodate more than ,2,000xmgle-family and multi -family homes on 323 acres, Cobblestone Lake is laid out around a 40 -acre man- made lake, a remnant of the site's history as a gravel quamy. Edina -based Tradition Develop- ment, which is also developing the adjoining Spirit of Bmndtjen Farm community in Lakeville, chose 10 single-family home builders and six multi -family builders to give the com- munity a mixture of traditional styles, according to Rob Wachholz, a partner in Tradition. A lakeside gazebo, public park and trail system, nearby rapid transit, open spaces, play areas and an integrally planned commercial and shopping area add to the attraction. "We have housing options for voting singles buying their first townhome to active empty nesters who are seeking fly Nancy Crotty a main ten ance-fiee litestvle. as well as single-famih, homes in it varict% of price points,- Wachholz sats. The Cobblestone Lake neighborhoods look different than most suburban developments. with sidewalks on both side of the street. boulevard trees, and homes built closer to the street, most with front porches. "Garages are tucked back at least five feet from the face of each porch. The facade of the home is more pronounced and it does work to encourage It card neighboring," Wachholz continues. "Cobblestone Lake and Brandtjen Farm appeal to individuals who seek a more active lifestyle and appreciate the quality and varier of the neighborhoods' appearances, which are guided by architectural standards. Residents also find much more opportunityto be social with neighbors and civically engaged in their community." Ryland Homes has built 19 single- famih homes in Cobblestone Lake, according to Tom Logan, sales counselor "A lot of people call it a fi ort porch community. more of a traditional style, getting away from the nil -de -sacs and the suburban sprawl,' he saes. "N'ou have vow' townhome community on the south shore. single-fainih, on the north shore and it realb nice mix in between. - ,Nana Crnlli is a /ievlance turner who lines in Sl. Phut.

According to Plymouth City Manager Laurie Ahrens,"you enhance the recognized attributes!' In some ways, being recognized as the best place to live doesn't change what the City of Plymouth has been doing ail along: careful planning; collaboration and partnerships; open and responsive government thoughtful and visionary planning for park, trail and open spaces; a focus on public safety, community building and respect for the environment. In many ways, the Plymouth employees' values statement sums it up: "Striving for excellence in leadership and teamwork through: quality, collaboration, integrity, growth and service." Laurie Ahrens says, "Focusing on these values is what made Plymouth a #1 City and will help it continue to improve." Money Maga-ine noted that the Plymouth community has great jobs, schools, recreation and a variety of housing stock in many price ranges. This shows that there are many organizations that make the city a winner: the school districts, the businesses, Three Rivers Park District, community service organizations and Hennepin County are ail important to the qualih' of life there. Neighboring cities and other partners in comnmtuty-building have generously praised and congratulated Plymouth for receiving this honor. Citizens have been outspoken on their opinions on why the city is number one: "The parks, the lakes, the people_.iPs second to none " Jared Justensen, 9 -year resident "My husband and I have been herea long time and we love the way the city his grown and matured." Heidi Fokken, 17 -year resident If you're driving through Plymouth, you ve seen #1 Best Place to Line banners hanging throughout the city Businesses are proudly displaying Best Place to Live window clings distributed by the Mayor and City Council members. Mayor Kelli Slavik is thrilled with the award and the excitement it has generated throughout the community. "Plymouth did not seek this award," she said. "The people in this community have simply focused their efforts on building a place that families and businesses want to call home.

Page 10 PRAC Minutes/February 12, 2009 Page 2 Superintendant of Recreation Diane Evans thanked the Commissioners and Councilmember Stein for helping with the fire at Fire and Ice. Smith & Stein also judged the goofy hat contest. It was a great day with between 4,000-5,000 participants. Two new events were the Recycling Bin Races and Captain Lowell's Train Ride, both very popular. The Little Sweetheart Ball had 170 participants, with moms, dads, and kids dancing and having a great time. The February 20 Jazz Impressions event includes music, wine and chocolates. Our first Healthy Living Fair will be held froml-5 pm on March 15. Applications are coming in for summer employment. We are putting the finishing touches on the summer brochure. We are also working on the budget for 2010-11. Councilmember Stein reminded Staff Evans about the Mayor's Skating Parry at Parkers Lake Park. It was a great opportunity to have hot chocolate and cookies, sit by the fire, and skate with the Mayor. Mayor Slavik will host another skating party on February 20. Director Blank reported that the ice arena open skate is very popular, as are the skate lessons. We needed to hire more instructors. Ice time for many tournaments and leagues has been booked. The Fieldhouse just had a $70,000 month. They achieved an estimated net of $150,000 for 2008. Commissioner Carroll asked about outdoor pond hockey. Blank said that Red Bull hosted an event at Parkers Lake. 4. REPORT ON PAST COUNCIL ACTION a. Approve park rental fees: Blank reported that the Council passed the rental fee changes as approved by PRAC. b. Approve non-resident fee for programs: Evans reported that the Council adopted the new policy. She said there is a new multi -tiered system with three different percentages. For up to $50, the non-resident surcharge is 20%. For $51 to $100, the surcharge is 15%. For $101 and over, it is 10%. She also pointed out that non- residents are very important to our programs. The new policy takes effect in the summer brochure 5. UNFINISHED BUSINESS a. Update — Zachary Park Building: Blank reported that they will start working again next week, and that they are nearly done. They are still under budget. The City still has some landscaping to do. The association is planning a combined grand opening for Little League and for the building. A date has not yet been decided. b. Greenway Land Acquisition: Blank said that he had a closing last week on the purchase of a 1.1 acre property. We also have an agreement on a 6 -acre parcel. Page 11 PRAC Minutes/February 12, 2009 Page 3 We first must create a plat and map the wetlands. Council approval on the agreement is contingent on platting. Another landowner came in yesterday and talked about a 10 -acre property. 6. NEW BUSINESS a. Review Public Art Policy: Karol Greupner reported on the Arts Policy and some art pieces the City has acquired. She said that Franklin Bank had donated a piece by Larry Poons which hangs in the Plymouth Creek Center. Scanticon donated a three-dimensional piece which now hangs in the Ice Center. The Winged Iris sculpture by Foster Willey Jr. is scheduled to be installed in April. Since we are building a public art collection, it is important to put together a Public Arts Policy. Our mission is to promote, protect, and enrich the arts in Plymouth. The policy includes acquisition, selection, funding, contracts, insurance, maintenance, relocation and removal. Chair Smith thought the policy was clear and concise. Commissioner Vanderwall suggested that perhaps one of the PRAC commissioners should be on the art selection committee. Karol thought that was a good idea. Blank agreed, and Evans said that it was the intent to have a PRAC representative on the committee, and it was left out Chair Smith said that having a committee is good, and perhaps community involvement would also be helpful. Eric said budgeting for art acquisition will be 2-3 years out in the CIP. Once a new acquisition is approved by Council, the procedure outlined in the policy would begin. Commissioner D. Anderson asked if an arts policy had been presented before. Blank said it had been presented few years ago. At that time, it was decided that the document was too long and complicated and needed to be simplified. MOTION: Commissioner Carroll moved to approve the Arts Policy with the addition of having a PRAC member on the selection committee. Commissioner Vanderwall seconded Vote: 6 Ayes. Motion carried. b. Approve Annual Report: Evans said that the Annual Report showcases the Commission's work for 2008 and the Work Plan for 2009 for the City Council. She pointed out highlights from the report. Chair Smith was impressed with the photos. Commissioner Carroll was also impressed with the photography. Chair Smith suggested that on pagel2, PFAC should be spelled out. Commissioner Vanderwall asked if the percentages on page 22 could be clarified. MOTION: Commissioner Vanderwall moved to accept the Annual Report with noted corrections. Commissioner G. Anderson seconded. Vote: 6 Ayes. Motion carried. c. Approve 2009 Work Plan Blank pointed out the highlights of the Work Plan. He said the Council has said the Greenway is a top priority. New trails, beach improvements, a park tour, Millennium Garden improvements, review of fees & policies, and park projects follow the CIP. Page 12 PRAC Minutes/February 12, 2009 Page 4 Commissioner Carroll asked about the West Medicine Park building delay. Blank said it was postponed to 2012. Commissioner D. Anderson asked how it is handled if a trail costs more than the budget. Blank explained that we would go to Council with an engineering estimate and ask for their approval. There is some flexibility. MOTION: Commissioner G. Anderson moved to adopt the 2009 Work Plan. Commissioner Carroll seconded. Vote: 6 Ayes. Motion carried. d. Review Mayor's Task Force on Park & Recreation Program Financing (1982) Blank said the city built four playfields in 1980 and two in 1981. Right away, issues of operation became apparent. Mayor Davenport created a commission to determine the rules of use. The associations with predominately Plymouth kids use the playfields for free during the week. For weekend tournaments with other teams coming in, a fee is charged. This has worked for 28 years. The state legislature has put a tax freeze on the cities. There will need to be changes to the structure of the budget in 2010-11. This will affect every department. Cutting services is one way to handle the problem - increasing revenue is another. We will meet with the association presidents to discuss this issue. They will need to determine if they can make do with less service, do their own maintenance, or pay a user fee. Based on input, staff will work on developing a new policy. The Council will look at the strategy when reviewing budgets. Chair Smith asked if another task force is needed. Blank explained that most of that work was done in 1980 and doesn't need to be done again. The answer for the associations might be a combination plan. Commissioner Carroll asked if there would be quality control managed by the City if the association does their own work. Blank said maintenance staff would stay diligent on oversight. Commissioner Nelson asked if the City would provide the tools for the association. Blank said at Parkers Lake, for example, there is a chalk machine, and they would have access to it plus diamond dry. Where there is no building for storage, they will have to bring their own tools. Commissioner Vanderwall asked if there is a breakdown on the park budget for field maintenance. Blank said that right now, there is about $800,000 budgeted to athletic fields. We will need to simplify this to a one -sheet document. Commissioner Vanderwall asked about a projected shortfall. Blank explained that the City is trying to do a budget with no increase in tax for 2010. They are going through a process of ranking the services the city provides. Some programs may need to be eliminated. Chair Smith felt the 1982 report was interesting to read and congratulated Blank on the department's growth through the years 7. COMMISSION PRESENTATION: 8.

A Plymouth Police Officer assisted in the PIT maneuver, which resulted in front end damage to squad #148. The suspect's insurance carrier will reimburse the city for $2,914.63 in damages. The Plymouth Police department had the highest total dollar value of auto claims for 2008, at nearly $62,900. This includes two totaled patrol card due to inattentive drivers. Plymouth received reimbursement from the drivers' personal auto insurance. On a `good' note, during the snowiest and coldest start to winter, the City had only two automobile claims. The fust claim involved a squad rear ended by a sliding vehicle. The other was a public works pickup truck that slid bumped into a parked car in a parking lot. Neither incident resulted in workers compensation claims. Property Claims As of December 31, there is still one large property claim in process. On Saturday, May 31, a large hailstorm swept through Plymouth and heavily damaged the roofs of two lift stations and the water treatment plant. As of July 1, we have received estimated replacement costs at close to $200,000. Mark Jones, Property Management Coordinator, will start the bidding process as soon Page 17 as the snow clears in 2009, to allow for a more thorough bidding process including inspections of the locations by the roofing companies. There were no other significant property claims during the 4`h quarter of 2008. Liability Claims During the 4'h quarter of 2008, the city received fifteen liability claims. As of December 31, 2008, 10 of the 15 were closed. Only four claims had payment for damages by the City. The total amount paid out during the 4 I quarter was $6,696.

The following highlights the overall change in values: ■ The base value of single family homes is down approximately 4.3%. The value of these properties is down 4.8% net of new construction (i.e. additions and remodelings.) For the 2009 assessment, 93.8% of the single family homes will see a decline in their market value notice. ■ The average sale price of a single family home is $368,000, up slightly from last year's reported average of $365,100. It is important to note lender mediated sales are not reflected in the average sale price reported in the sales ratio analysis. ■ Apartments are down 6.4% from the 2008 assessment. ■ Overall, the commercial and industrial markets declined 4.3%. The overall drop is the result of a 6.3% decline in retail, 4.0% decline in office, 4.8% decline in industrial, and a 9.1 % decline in office condominiums. The net impact on the tax capacity will decline due to the declines in all of the property types. Preliminary tax capacity figures and market value reports for each of the cities in Hennepin County will be available the end of March. I will prepare a summary of the changes in market values and tax capacities of Plymouth compared to our peer cities for you at that time.

MN-MESB.ORG The Metropolitan Emergency Services Board is pleased to inform you that your agency has received an allocation from the PSIC grant funds. Your allocation is $19,359.91. This allocation is based on your December 1, 2008 request of ten portable radios for the Public Works Department. The total request was for $26,000.00. The federal government calculates the 20% match using a specific formula. This means that your agency's match amount is slightly higher than you had originally calculated. For instance, for a grant request of $5,600.00, most agencies would.anticipate a $1,000.00 match. Using the federal government's formula as follows, the match is slightly higher: ((Grant amount x 100)/80) - original grant amount In the aforementioned $5,000.00 request, the match is $1,250.00. Therefore, using this formula your agency's 20% match is $4,839.98. Please notify Jill Rohret, Regional Radio Services Coordinator, of your intent to accept the grant funds. Once she receives notice of your intent to accept the funds, she will contact you about executing a sub -grant agreement. Jill may be reached at irohret(a-,mn-mesb.org or (651) 643-8394. Congratulations and we look forward to working with you throughout this grant process. Sincerely, ,54� G - Kathleen A.

CITY OF MI page 28 City of Plymouth MKWA4=1%!'1 Adding Quality to Life U.S. Representative Erik Paulsen 250 Prairie Center Drive, Suite 230 Eden Prairie, MN 55344 SUBJECT: I-494 THIRD LANE EXPANSION, TH 55 TO I-94 STATE PROJECT NO. 2785-33 Dear Representative Paulsen: February 11, 2009 I am writing to advise you that on February 10, 2009, the Plymouth City Council adopted the following goal for 2009: Address Transportation Issues. Advance transportation and transit issues to improve the local economy, promote business growth and development and improve area roadways and highways to reduce commuter congestion. Of particular interest to the City Council is the expansion of I-494 from two lanes to three lanes through Plymouth and Maple Grove. To further express our interest in this important regional project, the City Council also adopted the following 2009 legislative priority: Transportation and Transit Funding. To efficiently transport commuters and promote business growth, the City encourages the legislature to identify long-term funding sources with growth potential to allow the building of high quality, efficient transit and highway systems. As you may know, MnDOT has already completed a number of measures intended to advance the status of this project, however, funding remains virtually the only obstacle to its completion. In light of potential funding opportunities with the pending economic stimulus package, the City is encouraging our local representatives to consider this project a high priority. I hope that the City of Plymouth can count on your support to complete the expansion of I-494 through Plymouth and Maple Grove.

While bids came in higher than anticipated, the County anticipates awarding a bid on March 31, 2009. In reviewing the bids, it appears the cost of concrete and storm sewer work is higher than the estimate and the cost of utility work is less than the estimate. When the City entered into the Agreement for right-of-way acquisition and construction, the City's share of project costs was estimated (see Exhibit A dated 6/6/06) as follows: Construction $2,086,278.47 Engineering $305,530.12 Right of Way $1,355,816.00 Other Items $19,000.00 Total $3,766,624.60 Less Federal Aid ($539,000.00) TOTAL CITY SHARE $3,227,624.60 Using the bid prices of the apparent low bidder, the City's share of project costs (see Exhibit A dated 1/14/09) is as follows: Construction Engineering Right of Way Other Items Total Less Federal Aid TOTAL CITY SHARE $2,380,839.94 $380,086.46 $1,355,816.00 $19,000.00 $4,135,742.40 ($594,947.76) $3,540,794.64 Oo Enmmmg PROlECT3 ZM-2009 i 102ble sUmie bi&r ulls_'__ I109.do Page 30 SUBJECT: COUNTY ROAD 101 CONSTRUCTION Page 2 The City's total share of $3,540,794.64 is $313,170.04, or 9.7% above the estimate used for the Agreement. This amount is within the 15% cost share allowance identified in the Agreement. The 2009-2013 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) identifies the City share of total project costs to be 53,900,000. The Municipal State Aid Fund accounts for $3,100,000, the Water Fund accounts for $700,000, and the Sewer Fund accounts for $100,000. Using the revised Exhibit A, the Municipal State Aid Fund would be responsible for $3,017,375.56, the Water Fund would be responsible for $444,181.46, and the Sewer Fund would be responsible for $79,237.62. attachments Page 31 0 £ngmec PROJECfS'_OW -2_ 5102 k1mos Ua e_bidmults_2_ 17 W.&c Concrete drive aprons EXHIBIT A 4,104.00 4,104.00 Signals DIVISION OF COST SUMMARY 101 & 14th Ave. (50150) HENNEPIN COUNTY PROJECT NO. 9516 59,850.00 ' 59.85000 101 & 6 (HC 100%) CSAH 101 FROM 240' S.

The current corridor has room in the center for the addition of one lane of traffic in each direction and could be added with minimal impacts to the current operations of 1-494. The 2008 Congestion Report shows that there is 1 to 3 hours of congestion in the AM peak period on SB 1494 from 1-94 to TH 55 and 1 to 3 hours of congestion in the PM peak period on NB 1-494 from 1-394 to TH 55. 4 e Project Description: w r, The proposed project provides for the construction of one lane in each jl Z 's direction on 1494 from 1-394 to West K PROJECT ARU Lake Road. The project would ('.,. require the widening of 7 bridges.
