The City Council has expressed support for a one-year trial of an off -leash dog park and will likely make the decision in June after hearing from residents. At a council work session last week, city staff brought up the idea of converting three hockey rinks into pet areas during spring, summer and fall. The hockey rinks are located in Civic Center Park, Lions Park and Liberty Park. The plan was modeled after the city of Crystal, which has four off -leash dog parks in its hockey rinks. Minor changes will be made to the rinks in order to accommodate dogs including: adding signage to display rules, addressing cleanup and owner responsibility, and providing a receptacle for bags and a garbage can. Rules for dog owners could include making sure dogs are licensed and vaccinated, requiring leashes for entering or exiting the dog area, being liable for any damage or injury, and cleaning up after dogs. Dogs that are in heat would be prohibited from the park. A neighborhood meeting will likely be held as part of the Citizen Advisory Committee meeting on June 16. LORA PABST © 2008 Star Tribune.

But Eagan residents will still weigh in on the fate of the land at a November referendum, part of a legal settlement reached this spring after a four-year legal battle waged against the city by the golf course's owner and a developer. Many residents have fought to preserve the 120 -acre site as green space, while landowner Ray Rahn and Wensmann Realty have argued that they should be able to develop it. Under a contingent deal reached in April, the city will let voters decide whether to buy the land or let it be developed. If they approve the purchase, the city will buy the land for $10 million, plus about $250,000 in bond fees and other expenses -- costs that do not include any improvements such as trails. But even before November, the city is reviewing a Wensmann proposal for homes that could be built if the referendum fails. Wensmann's plan calls for up to 480 houses, townhouses, senior housing and apartments or condominiums on about 90 acres of the golf course, with 30 acres set aside as green space. The City Council, which must approve any project plans, is slated to consider the preliminary concept at its June 3 meeting. Sarah Lemagie • 952-882-9016 © 2008 Star Tribune. All rights reserved.

CALL TO ORDER Chairman Ludovissie called the Plymouth Housing and Redevelopment Authority meeting to order at 7:02 P.M. 2. CONSENT AGENDA A. Approve HRA Meeting Minutes from March 30, 2008. B.. Plymouth Towne Square. Accept monthly housing reports. C. Vicksburg Crossing. Accept monthly housing reports. MOTION was made by Commissioner Caryotakis, seconded by Commissioner Hatcher to approve the consent agenda. Vote. 3 Ayes. MOTION approved unanimously. 3. NEW BUSINESS A. Vicksburg Crossing. Marketing update. Grace Management Representative Boedigheimer reported that traffic has been picking up including some repeat showings. The model unit has been very well received and credited with helping to rent units. Grace Management has received numerous inquiries from residents related to renting the guest suite and the model unit for a few nights on behalf of resident guests. To date, 15 of the vacant units have been reserved. Chairman Ludovissie asked what the odds are that the units spoken for will all rent up. Grace Management Representative Boedigheimer stated that the odds were very good that for the 11 units with deposits, nine would lease up by June and two by July. One or two people may still need to sell their home in order to lease up. The summer and spring seasons are typically the most active markets. Commissioner Hatcher asked for clarification on the guest suite and its role in the building. Grace Management Representative Boedigheimer said the suite was created in order to offer an on-site amenity. The Board asked if there was anything that Grace Management needed from the Board at this time. Grace Management Representative Boedigheimer answered that for now, probably not. One strong leasing prospect was generated at the Expo. Commissioner Hatcher suggested that Page 18 Plymouth Housing and Redevelopment Authority March 20, 2008 Page 2 volunteer help from the Board might be a real contribution at future city events. Housing Program Manager Barnes mentioned that some ads in the SS Plus and Plymouth magazine would be placed shortly. He added that there will be a link to the Vicksburg Crossing website as part of the cost of the ad insertion. Chairman Ludovissie suggested that perhaps a feature story of the Vicksburg Crossing resident who does wood carving might be a good human interest story for the Plymouth magazine. B. Vicksburg Crossing. Amend 2008 Operating Budget. Housing Program Manager Barnes explained the rationale for revisiting the budget throughout the year. Grace Management Representative Boedigheimer explained the adjustment/correction made to the revenue side of the financials. She stated that some rental income was counted twice in error but discovered and corrected. The role of a first year budget was discussed as both a guideline and a real challenge. There is $5,000 budgeted monthly for a reserve account for future expenses. Actual health insurance premiums came in under the budgeted number. Housing Program Manager Barnes mentioned that the Board might consider a utility surcharge plan to offset the rising costs of utilities. The surcharge would be assessed as leases renew annually. Commissioner Ludovissie was cautious about increasing any out of pocket expenses to tenants prior to achieving full occupancy. He'stated that high occupancy is the prime goal. Commissioner Hatcher asked about the rationale of assessing a fuel surcharge versus simply raising the rent. Housing Program Manager Barnes called attention to the TIHAP line item in the budget and is researching the length of time those monies will be available for use. He added that there are also funds in the HRA General Fund budget that may be available if needed. There was no action taken on this item at this time. 4. OTHER DISCUSSION ITEMS Chairman Ludovossie stated that the HRA memo was well written and he found it to be very interesting and informative. Chairman Ludovossie stated he would like to see some feedback from the City Council. Commissioner Caryotakis commented that the current strategic plan is clear and well-written, but perhaps needs some "meat" added to it. Funding sources such as TIF and bonds were also discussed. Establishing common goals for the strategic plan which would be shared by the City Council was agreed to be a good approach. 5. ADJOURNMENT Motion made by Chairman Ludovossie to adjourn. The meeting was adjourned at 7:54 P.M.

DATE: May 2008 SUBJECT: Garage and Residential Burglary Awareness and Prevention Burglary Defined: The Uniform Crime Reporting Program defines burglary as the unlawful entry of structure to commit a felony or theft. The use of force to gain entry is not required to classify an offense as burglary. Burglary in this program is categorized into three sub -classifications: forcible entry, unlawful `entry where no force is used, and attempted forcible entry. Break ins to attached garages are also. considered burglaries. Between January and April 2008 68 Burglaries were committed in Plymouth. ■ 75% of these burglaries were residential. ■ 25 % of these burglaries were commercial. + In 51% of the residential burglaries, entry was made through the overhead or service door to the garage. 78 Theft from Vehicle Crimes occurred in Plymouth ■ 28 (36%) were from commercial lots ■ 24 (30%) from residential driveways or parked on the street in front of the house. ■ 15 (20%) from apartment lots ■ 6 (8%) were classified as "other" ■ 5 (6%) from school lots If you have information that may be beneficial in the investigation of Plymouth's residential burglaries, please call Sgt. Joe Gebhardt at 763-509-5136. Page 30 1. Service Door to the Garage: Reinforce the garage service door by adding a single cylinder or double cylinder deadbolt lock. 2. Overhead Garage Door: Keep overhead garage doors closed at all times. Burglars are prolific in preying on open garages when the doors are left open. Lock U p : I n most of Plymouth's residential burglaries, the burglar entered the home without the use of force, through an unlocked or open door or window. Unoccupied homes are most likely to be burglarized Be Alert to the sound of breaking glass, doors being kicked in, dogs barking frantically, or vehicles speeding away. If you have any doubt of whether or not you should call the police, CALL 9-1 -1 . Light UP: A well -lit neighborhood presents a unified front against crime and provides greater risk to criminals. No home should appear dark after dusk. To create a uniform pattern of lighting and the appearance of occupied dwellings, neighbors should use photoelectric lights on the exterior of their homes and light timers within their homes. Join Operation I D : Marked property is more risky to steal, difficult to fence, and has a devalued street price. OPID aids police in tracing the ownership of recovered property and returning it to the rightful owner. It also provides evidence in court.

Page 31 -AAA Metropolitan Council ®e May 22, 2008 Laurie Ahrens City Manager City of Plymouth 3400 Plymouth Blvd Plymouth, MN 55447-1482 Dear Ms Ahrens: As required by Minnesota Statutes 473.24, the Metropolitan Council annually prepares population and household estimates as of April I of the previous year. After local governments have the opportunity to review and comment on the preliminary estimates, the Council certifies final estimates by July 15 for use in allocating local government aid (LGA) and local street aid. The Metropolitan Council estimates that the City of Plymouth had 71,147 people and 27,962 households as of April 1, 2007. Household size averaged 2.49 persons per household. Starting with counts from the 2000 Census, the Council estimates current population and households through changes in the housing stock, vacancy rates and persons per household. Input data sources now include the U.S. Census Bureau's American Community Survey, occupancy information from the U.S. Postal Service, and surveys conducted by Metropolitan Council Research. To update decennial Census data, the Council uses current and newly -available data sources which indicate slight increases in residential vacancy rates and small losses in the number of persons per household since 2000. After local suggestions prompted an in-depth review of current Census data, the Council has adjusted the persons per household in areas with accelerating single-family home construction. Incorporating newly -available data and ongoing methodological improvements, these estimates provide a realistic, real-time representation of population and household growth since 2000 but are not completely comparable to prior years' estimates. Beginning this year, the Council is pleased to provide you a report of the data inputs and intermediate estimates used to develop your local population and household estimates. Those who attended the Council's Population Estimates Workshops in April and May will find this format familiar; others may visit the Council's website or contact Council Research staff for assistance. (See www.metrocouncii.org/metroarea/AboutEstimates.litm, or contact Todd Graham at 651-602-1322.) Council staff welcomes discussion of these preliminary estimates. -Under Minnesota Statutes 473.24, the Metropolitan Council must receive your comments, questions or challenges to these preliminary estimates in writing by June 24, 2008. By law, the Metropolitan Council certifies the estimates of population and the average household size by July 15, including any estimates still under objection. Please send any written comments or questions to Todd Graham, Metropolitan Council Research, or by e-mail to told.ray harn@metc.state.mn.us .

Schuetz Subject: Proposed Development of Elm Creek Golf Course Property Dear Mr. Schuetz, Medina Highlands Homeowners Association (MHHOA) hereby requests an opportunity to meet with representatives of Erickson Retirement Communities to discuss issues related to your proposed development of the Elm Creek Golf Course property. While we appreciate your efforts to host the public meetings on May 22 and 29, we believe those events are not the proper forum to discuss and coordinate specific issues related to MHHOA. MHHOA properties represent approximately 50% of the residential property bordering your proposed development. In view of this, we feel we deserve an opportunity to have a meeting dedicated to MHHOA issues and concerns. We would prefer to work with Erickson for a mutually acceptable transition plan versus continuing to lobby the Cities of Plymouth and Medina with our concerns.

It is very difficult to look at the destruction of a natural habitat (Trees, wildlife, etc.) and not see any progress with some sort of restoration. Hopefully something can be done soon: Sincerely, Veronika Werner From: Steve Juetten [mailto:sjuetten@ci.plymouth.mn.us] Sent: Friday, May 16, 2008 11:14 AM To: veronika.werner@marqueefinancialgroup.com Cc: Shawn Drill; Laurie,Ahrens Subject:. FW: Website Query Veronika Werner, Thank you for your inquiry. The current economy has caused a slowing of development projects throughout the City of Plymouth and the Twin Cities Metropolitan area. Unfortunately, the Bassett Creek Office development is no exception. When Mr. Allen submitted his application, went through the approval process, and started site work, he was marketing and negotiating with potential major tenants that would occupy a majority of the building and allow him to proceed with building construction as soon as grading finished. At this time, Mr. Allen has been unable to find the necessary tenants to move forward with building construction. One other timing constraint is the need for the site to settle prior to building construction starting. With the environmental clean up that has occurred and the amount of good material brought into the site, some time is necessary to allow the ground to settle in order to support the proposed building construction. Mr. Allen continues to market the office space and hopes to have a major tenant soon. In the meantime, he will be completing some additional site work, which includes a number of erosion control measures. I hope this helps to explain the situation. However, feel free to contact me if you have additional questions.

Construction crews arrived last winter, cut down all the trees, dug up the ground, and left!!!! For 2 months, the site has been sitting there, churned up, an eyesore to the neighbors who live on all sides. Did they run out of money ????? In that case — a suggestion to the Council: Before you issue permits, etc. and allow construction to come into a family neighborhood, you should make absolutely sure, that financing is available to complete the job and not leave a neighborhood in chaos.
