Local Forecast Click Here Friday, Jan. 21, 2005 PLYMOUTH SUNaSAILOR Local News Rest, Gaither propose barriers for 1-494, 169 NA (Created 1/20/2005 9:45:40 AM) In an effort to reduce the growing number of major crossover accidents along two major northwestern metro highway corridors, Sen. Ann Rest of New Hope, DFL -45, and Sen. David Gaither of Plymouth, R-43, have proposed direct state appropriations to construct median barriers. Legislation proposed Jan. 10 would set aside $600,000 for a barrier along 1-494 between 1- 394 and Bass Lake Road, as well as $400,000 for Highway 169 between Bass Lake Road and 26th Avenue / Medicine Lake Road. The $1 million in funding for concrete or cable barriers would be taken from existing dedicated trunk highway funds. "We have seen far too many crossover accidents in these two corridors resulting in death and permanent serious injuries," said Rest, Senate Assistant Majority Leader. "For a relatively small highway improvement cost, we can protect the lives of motorists." The 1-494 corridor between 1-394 and 1-94 was the scene of 11 median crossover crashes between 1993 and 2003 (most recent data available), with 10 fatalities and 14 life- threatening injuries over the same period. Highway 169 between 1-394 and 1-94 recorded six median crossover accidents between 1993 and 2003, with six fatalities and 15 severe injuries. A serious five -car crossover accident along Highway 169 late last year is not included in the accident totals. "We are sending a strong message to our legislative colleagues and MnDOT that highway barriers in these high -traffic corridors are an immediate top priority for motoring safety," said Gaither, Senate Assistant Minority Leader. "Waiting years to make these essential improvements would likely cost many lives." The proposed legislation gives MnDOT the option to construct permanent concrete barriers or use a less-expensive cable material, which is considered a temporary solution. Currently, the median barrier improvement for 1-494 is not scheduled until at least 2014.

Close window Last update: January 14, 2005 at 11:34 AM New Wayzata super says budget is toughest fiscal challenge yet Published January 19, 2005 The Wayzata school board has named Robert J. Ostlund as the district's new superintendent. Ostlund was serving as interim superintendent before accepting the permanent position. "I didn't envision staying beyond this year, but it feels like a good fit," he said. Biodata Age: 62 Education: B.A. and B.S. in chemistry and biology from Bemidji State University. Master's degree in Science Education from the University of Virginia. Education Administration certification from the University of Minnesota. Previous Jobs: Taught science for 10 years in Eden Prairie school district before going into administration. Assistant principal at Brainerd High School. Associate principal at Chaska High School for six years, then director of administration services. Superintendent of Shakopee for 9'/z years. "I thought I retired June 2000, but since that time I've done three interim [superintendent positions]" including interim headmaster at St. Thomas Academy. Personal Data: Lives in Shakopee with his wife but is now looking to move to the Wayzata area. Three adult children and one grandchild. Q&A What are the challenges facing the district? "Certainly the challenge that faces Wayzata and every school district is the financial challenge. In my 35 -year career, I've not seen financial challenges of this magnitude. Frankly, in the two years I spent at St. Thomas Academy, I was in a different circle and not connected to the public sector. I did not realize how little help they have gotten until I got here and saw the class sizes and saw the loads on everyone's plate. That is clearly the No. 1 issue. "We did receive some good news recently. For the past fiscal year, the district did end up in a better position financially than projected — with a better fund balance, of $2 million. Which is not a large portion -- it's about 2 to 2.5 percent of budget -- but with that increased reserve, if the Legislature can now address funding and do an inflationary increase, we feel we can hold our own for next year."

Close window Last update: January 14, 2005 at 4:11 PM New library director wants to get to know community Published January 19, 2005 Minnetonka's Amy Ryan, who took over as director of the suburban Hennepin County libraries this month, wants to get to know the people who use the county's 26 libraries. Ryan is holding "Get Acquainted Coffees" at several libraries throughout January and February. The next chance to meet her is Saturday from 10:30 a.m. to noon at the new Eden Prairie library, 556 Prairie Center Dr., or from 4:30 to 6 p.m. Tuesday at the Ridgedale Library, 12601 Ridgedale Dr., Minnetonka. Before moving to her new office at the Ridgedale library, Ryan worked for 28 years at Minneapolis' libraries, helping oversee renovations at 14 branch libraries in the city. Dial -A -Ride fare might rise The city of Plymouth is thinking of raising fares for its Dial -A -Ride service, which provides residents with curb -to -curb transportation for shopping and other services. Under the proposal, fares would increase from 75 cents to $1 for seniors, the handicapped and youth in kindergarten through 12th grade. The base fare would remain $2. The Plymouth Advisory Committee on Transit is holding a public meeting on the proposal Jan. 26 at 7 p.m. at City Hall, 3400 Plymouth Blvd. If the fare increase is approved, it would begin March 12. Picnic shelter reservations Maybe it's still too early in the winter to start thinking about this, but Carver County Parks wants you to know that it is now taking reservations for picnic shelters in 2005. There are seven shelters -- some big enough for parties of more than 150 people — available for rental. A community room at Baylor Regional Park is also available.

N., has become a popular spot since opening a couple of years ago. FOR RENT: The garden hosts weddings and other parties for a fee, but it is open for free to residents from 7 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. spring through fall. Art classes held at the Plymouth Creek Center often visit to do paintings or drawings in the garden. THE DONATIONS: A combination of city money and private donations helped build the park. One of the most popular ways to donate was through the "purchase" of bricks in the garden. The bricks were engraved with an inscription of the donors' choice. THE BRICKS: For a limited time -- until April 15 -- those bricks are for sale again. A donation of $100 allows the donor to choose an inscription on a brick: Popular choices include the name of a loved one or a favorite saying. Donations will help fund further improvements to the garden. TO DONATE: Call 763-509-5200 or go to ww ci_..plvmo_uth mti._us.. Ben Steverman c; Cory°right 2005 Star Tribune.

Karen gave an update on the Medicine Lake Committee. There have been attendance problems. It was decided to keep track for the EQC for all the different committees that report to the EQC that the groups will have a sign in sheet, who is present and who is absent on an on-going basis. Hence, the AVM also now has a sign in sheet policy. Curly Leaf Control A homeowner who declined to- participate in the treatment called the city to report that she now has no weeds we did not treat her property. Bill reports another property that did not participate that does have weeds either. Mixing of chemical in the water can drift. These properties did not have the chemical directly applied in front of their shoreline footage. The chemical applied to adjacent properties will mix throughout the water and some drift will happen. Steve: The Curly Leaf Pondweed treatment of Medicine Lake is pretty remarkable. Herbicide treatment affected 99.% of the crop. In June, we know from other non treated lakes that the crops were thriving. In Medicine, the only thing that is happening is that regrowth from old turions at 1 stem / meter sq. This is to be expected and is why we need a 3 year plan. For the next two years of the plan Steve will be collecting samples by square meter to see if stem density and biomass have decreased over time. In year 4 and 5 there may need to be spot treatment, based on any regrowth. There is a strong correlation between nitrogen and milfoil. We could do a sample to see what the sediments contain. Mark asks how long for natives to reestablish. Curly leaf may not come back if water chemistry changes, because it automatically inhibits it. If water chemistry is friendly to CLP, it could have a large regrowth. Steve says that if we can avoid the big algae blooms that this helps. Lake chemistry Ph is a massive variable for curly leaf. When we lower phosphorus, we lower algae, which in turn lowers Ph. Sediment testing cost is about $2000, Ph testing is more doable. Steve will get the rest of the biomass done and the report will be ready. Karen asked for a statement about the outcome from Steve.or report to present to EQC because the CLP treatment is part of the Medicine Lake Plan. Terrie offered the article written for the AMLAC Newsletter. Terrie will email curly leaf article to Bill for the Medicine Laker, and to Shane for the EQC... Margie will do a separate Medicine Lake Connection publication about CLP. Brian is monitoring for P (phosphorus) and other nutrients. At the end of June and the beginning of July you can see the spike of phosphorus on the graph. Part of reason for no algae bloom is that spring was cooler we didn't get the algae, but we still have relatively 0:\Engineering\WTRQLTY\AVMG\2004WVM Draft Minutes July 2004.doc Page 1 of 3 high P concentration. We want to increase the native populations of aquatic vegetation. The lake is loaded with P so we will not have clear water until we can increase the vegetation. The die off of CLP after treatment added to the in -lake load. Keep in mind that we are trying to increase the window of better water quality. Long term we need to look at what it going to happen by decreasing the pulse of nutrient loading with CLP die off, so this is expected to increase the window of clear water. Brian says the park is monitoring 11 sites to see where external loading is happening. They will monitor through the end of September. We also have to remember, that rains affect it, water temperature affects it and other variables. Medicine Lake is a eutrophic lake. Look at the graphs. Brian asks about plant survey for re-establishment of native plants. The Army Corp volunteered to do that. If they aren't going to we need to do it. Terrie says in the AVM Plan we have the option of planting native plants if they do not return on their own in the amounts that we would like. Shane and Karen talked about the green tour. All positive! Re-establishing native plants, result is a cleaner wetland. Prairie restoration is helping one homeowner, and much enthusiasm of neighbors is being generated! Don asked about control area for the CLP treatment. What he means is an area that is not treated such as a control in a scientific study, not control of the invasive population of CLP as we have been referring to it in our AVM plan. Steve says that the Army Corp of Engineers has done the tests to look at control. This is a complex system, Don says we need to collect as much data as possible, the committee agreed with Don that we need to collect as much information as possible, but stressed that this treatment was not a scientific study, it was a treatment to control the plant based on former studies. Having an area not treated could have jeopardized the entire plan, because an untreated area is likely to re -infect the lake. Scott asked about the measurements we look at to evaluate the CLP treatment. /Sechi disk readings, etc. All of this data should make a statement about improvements over time Don reported a large fish kill after the East Beach treatment with copper sulfate a month ago. The fish he observed dead were crappies and blue gills. Neil said that natural fish kills happen at that -time too. Fish Barrier Prior Lake has one that is quite ingenious. It was just installed in 2004. The engineer works for Wenck Engineering. This design eliminates the need for height and we don't have much height:so this may be a good alternative. Other designs that have been looked at wouldn't work because of flooding. Scott asks where the fish are coming from and what is the need? Bill called Darryl Ellingson of the DNR. Carp always swim upstream. 0:\Engineering\WTRQLlY\AVMG\2004WVM Draft Minutes July 2004.doc Page 2 of 3 They could be coming from Sweeny Lake, Wirth Lake etc. Bill and Mark saw huge carp this spring up to 30#. Mark says we could put this structure on the top of the dam. The one from Prior Lake is self cleaning. Bill says the one on Gray's Bay in Minnetonka is a pain because it always needs to be cleaned. The design of it collects debris. The Prior Lake design allows the debris to pass through in the downstream flow coming from the lake, but does not allow the carp to get through from the downstream side. Cost wise, Mark says on top of the dam is only about 10 feet wide, so if we installed it there it could be quite affordable. Shane says should we study the lake. We would be looking at netting of the fish etc. DNR information is fairly recent. Evaluation using conventional gear like gill nets, it is hard to get an accurate number for the carp population. Shane will ask city attorney about the issue. We will need to contact the homeowners that are next to the dam, Shane will contact BCWMO, Jim Herbert from Barr engineering, Bill will talk to John O'Toole, contact Darryl from DNR and Shane will contact the Ed Mathieson from Wenck. Liz says not all algae are bad. Some are native, and part of the eco system. Neil says for milfoil, the DNR has plans that we can use for control efforts. Terrie said the AVM does have plans for harvesting if it becomes nuisance. Our policy on the AVM is to use chemical treatment only as a last resort. It has been observed that the last few years milfoil has not been the problem it was in earlier years of infestation. This may be because of changing chemistry of the lake. Don brought up about ongoing wake damage to shoreline. He says the boat use on the lake is accelerating the bank erosion. He suggests we look at this issue. Scott says there are differences in the size of wakes from boats that have nothing to do with horsepower and size. A big boat may have a smaller wake than a small fishing boat. Lake use and the affects of different activities can be a topic for discussion at future meetings. Erosion is a serious issue to be considered. For next meeting agenda, we will finish the CLP report of this year's data. Also, Shane will call John Barten about the plant survey. Will it be us or the Army Corp conducting the survey? Meeting dates CLP data will still be collected in Sept. so probably October to get the report together Tentative September- meeting in case something comes up Sept 16th, 8:30 a.m. October 21s8:30 a.m. Minutes respectfully submitted by Terrie Christian 0:\Engineering\WTRQL'MAVMG\2004WVM Draft Minutes July 2004.doc Page 3 of 3 MINUTES OF THE PARK AND RECREATION ADVISORY COMMISSION MEETING January 13, 2005 Page 1 PRESENT: Chair Fiemann, Commissioners Davis, Griwac, Krahulec, Pederson, Rezabek, Singer, staff Blank, Evans, Pederson; Councilmember Slavik ABSENT: Aamoth, Rodriguez CALL TO ORDER Chair Fiemann called the meeting to order at 7:05 p.m. in the Council Chambers. 2. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Davis made a motion to approve the minutes of the December meeting. Rezabek seconded. Motion carried, all ayes. 3. VISITOR PRESENTATIONS a. Athletic Associations. None were present. Staff. Evans shared some information with the commission regarding the training clinics and training materials we provide all of our youth coaches. These materials were handed out because of a discussion held at the December meeting regarding good sportsmanship. Evans said that Frank White, from the Richfield Parks and Recreation Department, may come to a future PRAC meeting to make a presentation about the topic of good sportsmanship. Typically we offer NYSCA training for all of our fall soccer coaches and many of our other sports programs. We have anywhere from 200-230 volunteer coaches in fall soccer. In August we offer two coaching clinics for these coaches to attend. They are not required to do this, but just about every one of our soccer teams has a coach that has taken part in this training. Across the nation agencies are dealing with how to handle sportsmanship issues, Evans said. Blank added that our staff members Lauer and Anderson are certified trainers in this program. He also stated that Frank White is very interested in coming out to speak to PRAC. His presentation will take at least an hour. He's checking his calendar to see if he can attend in either March or April. Evans handed out the sign up sheet for the bonfire at Fire and Ice on Saturday, February 5. We have power parachutes coming this year as a new entertainment group. As part of our 25th Anniversary celebration, we're trying to bring back a medallion hunt, but it will be in the form of ping pong balls being dropped from the power parachutes. The kids will then have to run out and find them on the lake. We'll test it before we do it at the actual event. At the next meeting, we will present the 2004 annual report. Evans is excited about it. We've had over an 8% increase in program participation since 2003. We are a week away from having all of our summer programs figured out. Plymouth on Parade and the Autumn Art Fair will be combined this year. We have two new staff people that started at the beginning of the year. Angela Jedinak from Roseville took over the job of rental coordinator at the Plymouth Creek Center, and we have an intern, Jennifer Rejsak, who will help all of the programmers. Singer asked about an article she saw in the NRPA magazine. ?T PRAC Minutes/7anuary 2005 Page 2 She noticed a program called You Can, a healthy living program for older adults. She was interested in whether or not we might consider offering this program. Evans will look into it and talk to Sara about it. Singer works with the seniors at the Plymouth Creek Center and as a younger senior, Singer says she is interested in this program. Davis had a question about the parade and since this year isn't an election year, how will we replace all the politicians? Evans said some of them may still be in the parade, and although it likely won't be as many, it shouldn't have much of an effect on the number of units in the parade. We have a target goal of how long the parade should last, Blank said, and last year's actually lasted longer than usual. Each year we seem to pick up new units. Blank said the ice center is booked to the hilt. The third rink is doing very well. Providence is extremely happy. Nine of the next 10 weekends we have youth tournaments booked. Last weekend, the building was filled with all female groups for about a four to five hour period. We need to add some lights to the outside entrance area. There have been complaints that it's too dark. Davis asked about the floor in the new section and its concrete surface. Blank said that a couple of members on the Council have asked about tiling the new section, but no funds have been budgeted for that at this time. Fiemann asked what else needs to go in there to finish it? Blank said 12 television monitors and landscaping in the spring. 4. REPORT ON PAST COUNCIL ACTION a. 2005 park capital improvement projects. Last Tuesday the Council had their first meeting of the year. Our park capital improvement projects were approved. Fiemann asked about the repair and replacement of outfield fences. Are the ones at Lacompte South funded by the City or the associations? Blank said it could go either way. Fiemann will go to the baseball association to see about getting some funds to take care of that. 5. UNFINISHED BUSINESS a. Review goals for 2005. Blank reported that by City ordinance we must develop an annual report and submit it to the Council in February. Part of that report needs to contain a work plan. Some items staff has come up with include: ■ Land acquisition for the Northwest Greenway and the 10th playfield. Blank said that we have reached a bargain with the Begin family for five acres on the north end of Pomerleau Lake. ■ The monitoring and operation of the third sheet of ice. ■ The public art policy. We've been working on this for over three years. Other communities are also struggling with this. What is acceptable public art? Blank feels it is better to have a plan in place before someone offers to donate something to the City. ■ Capital improvement program for 2006-2010. ■ Park tour sometime, maybe in June. ■ Updating park ordinances. ■ Using the park system to promote the history of our community, with reader boards, etc. We'll work with the Historical Society on this. zq PRAC Minutes/January 2005 Page 3 ■ Communication with the youth, particularly teens. We don't have a quick fix for this. Pre -approval is needed before bringing information to the high school for distribution to the student body. Pederson asked about finishing up things at the ice center. Should this be part of the work plan? Blank said we'll be wrapping up this project in the next few weeks. After that he could go to the City Council and ask them if they want to add anything else. Fiemann asked if there are any contingency dollars left over? Blank said no. Tile would be a great addition to the new expansion area. It will be up to the Council to decide if they want to spend the $30,000 to do that. Singer wants the Commission to consider looking for a spot on the east side of Plymouth for a skate park. Blank said the city is currently redoing the water treatment plant at Zachary. We did a site plan for a skate park at that location. It would cost about $100,000. There is a nice piece of property there that includes a storm water pond and space for a skate park. 6. NEW BUSINESS a. Discuss policy on facility usage. At the last Commission meeting, during Dan Lauer's presentation on sports programs, Davis was surprised to learn that his son's soccer organization doesn't pay a fee to use our fields. This brought up the issue of the Mayor's Task Force on Park and Recreation Program Financing. Blank stated that three weeks before he was hired back in 1980, the city passed a referendum to build six new playfields. Four were built in the summer of 1980 and the other two in the summer of 1981. The basic funding philosophy was that the City had an obligation to perform basic levels of service on these playfields without passing any costs on to the consumer for these services. In 1991 a Council member felt strongly that a fee should be imposed on athletic associations for each non-resident member, and so a $5 was implemented. Eighteen months later, the Council rescinded that fee due to enormous pressure and complaints. It would have cost at least $100 per child to offset the costs of operating the park system, Blank said. We assign fields based on the number of Plymouth residents participating in the association. We constantly readjust to meet the needs. We were probably the first recreation department that was based on "pay to play." There was a standard level of measure as to how much money would be allocated for recreation. In the last three years the recreation fund has done very well due to tremendous growth. Singer asked if there is a trend with communities starting to charge fees. Blank said there are some communities that are making cuts to keep their current level of service. Blank said there are other options — less service, assessing a fee, or doing some of the maintenance yourself. Do we need to do that at this time Fiemann asked? Blank said not this year, but maybe next year. When the legislature is finished in May, we will know what the ripple effect will be in 2006 and 2007. All adults pay fees Blank said. They don't pay 100% of the costs, but they are the only ones that pay fees. Fiemann asked Blank to continue to monitor this and report back to the commission regarding what the legislature does. The DNR collects fees from cross country skiers, Blank said in response to Rezabek's comment that Three Rivers charges fees to cross country skiers who use the trails in the county parks. 36 PRAC Minutes/January 2005 Page 4 Blank discussed the rules and regulations on open meeting laws, etc. No more than four commissioners can get together to discuss an issue. More than that would be a violation. Even a phone call would violate the open meeting law if it involved five or more members in a conference call situation. Davis asked about getting together for a dedication or grand opening. City Manager Ahrens said she considers those types of things Council events, and as such, PRAC members could attend without violating the open meeting law. Singer asked about the disclosure law and conflict of interest. She assumed that if a situation arose at a meeting, you would simply state your conflict of interest and recuse yourself. 7.

SUBJECT: Fireworks Display/Pyrotechnics from January 1, 2005 Pursuant to your request, my office completed a thorough review of the fireworks display complaint that occurred on January 1, 2005. In short, a Plymouth resident legally obtained a permit for a fireworks display, which was held on Medicine Lake. The display was conducted by Northern Lighter Pyrotechnics from North Branch, MN as part of their annual club shoot. As required by State law, the issuing authority must ensure that a number of conditions are met and listed on the application e.g. type of fireworks/pyrotechnics, number of fireworks, length of display, certificate of insurance, and fallout zone, etc. Only the local fire chief, county sheriff, or their designee can sign off on the permit application. On December 8, 2004, the applicant completed the application and Fire Inspector Stan Scofield subsequently approved it on December 20, 2004. In speaking with Chief Rick Kline, the proper City of Plymouth protocol was indeed followed on this issue. While the fire department is required to be on -scene to manage any emergencies that should result from the fireworks display, it is the fire inspector's designated responsibility to review and approve the application. While there was direct communication between the fire chief and the fire inspector, the fire inspector works under the auspices of Community Development. In reviewing this matter with Community Development Director Anne Hurlburt, she confirmed that the City did act in accordance to State law. The laws surrounding this issue are located in the State Fire Code. Within the law, there is a provision for local units of government to pass their own ordinance that could include additional conditions. Director Hurlburt indicated that this was the first time that anyone could recall where a private party applied for, and received, a permit outside of our City's annual celebrations. As a result of the display, the police department received two separate complaints about the fireworks' noise and their concussions. One of these complainants believed that his house had sustained damage due to the concussions. In this matter, both complainants were quite upset that the police department could not stop the display. Under State law, the police department does not have jurisdiction on the lake — the sheriff's office does. The complainants were advised that a permit was obtained and that their concerns would be documented. One of the complainants made an Internal Affairs inquiry about the manner in which one of the officers handled the situation. A full review of this matter was completed and the officer was exonerated. In fact, the officer was commended by his Field Training Officer for handling this situation is such a professional manner. While the Internal Affairs files are private data, I have attached the initial reports that document the fireworks complaints. While the City acted in accordance with State law on this matter, a neighborhood notification process for future events is one option that could be considered, along with others, if the City adopted a local ordinance more strict than the State Fire Code. As of now, the City clearly publicizes the fireworks displays that are held at Music in Plymouth and at Fire and Ice. However, there are no provisions for any notification for private events. Any administrative costs associated with the notification process could be added to the application process. This issue has also made us aware of the various City departments that need to share this information when such a permit is granted. Please advise if the Council would like staff to complete any additional work on developing a local ordinance on this matter.
