Mike Goldstein FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PHONE: 763-509-5129 Plymouth Police Department advises parents: Secure children safely in vehicle; Proper child passenger restraint a focus during enforcement period Plymouth police officers will focus on preventing child fatalities and injuries related to motor vehicle crashes during a Minnesota Department of Public Safety (DPS) Safe & Sober enhanced enforcement period from Feb. 11 through Feb. 17. According to the DPS Office of Traffic Safety (OTS), nearly 70 percent of child fatalities and severe injuries in Minnesota crashes could be prevented if children were properly secured in motor vehicles. Plymouth officers will enforce the Minnesota Child Restraint Law. Under the law, drivers can be cited for improper child restraint use. "Sometimes, parents need assistance—especially when it comes to securing children correctly in a vehicle," says Lt. Mike Goldstein "We're going to educate our community and help drivers understand how to keep their kids safe in a vehicle." According to the OTS, 65 percent of child safety seats in Minnesota are used incorrectly, and 27 percent of child safety seats are so grossly misused they provide for no safety function at all. The misuse or non-use of child restraints contributed to 63 fatalities or injuries of children 4 years of age and younger in 2000. Other reports also highlight Minnesota's child restraint problems. According to the Boost America! 50 State Study, 92 percent of Minnesota parents or caregivers have heard or read about booster seats, but only 30 percent of parents or caregivers actually use them with their 4 to 8 year olds. For more information on child restraints or to identify the location and dates of upcoming local car seat check up events, visit www.buckleupkids.state.mn.us or www.nhtsa.dot.gov. You may also call 1-800-818-9296 for information. This spring the Plymouth Fire Department also will be offering a car seat check up.program for Plymouth residents. Look for more information at www.ci.plymouth.mn.us or call the Plymouth Fire Department at 763-509-5198. The Safe & Sober campaign is funded by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and administered by the DPS Office of Traffic Safety. The program was designed to reduce traffic crashes and serious injuries. -30- News Release For Immediate Release January 23, 2002 I— la"111 DCITV OF PLYMOUTR Contact: Karol Greupner, 763-509-5223 Plymouth Fire and Ice Cancelled Due to Unseasonably Warm Weather For the second time in its 13 -year history, the Plymouth Fire and Ice Festival is being cancelled. The annual outdoor event, which had been scheduled for Feb. 2, has fallen victim to this winter's unseasonably warm temperatures and lack of snow. The community event typically takes place on Parkers Lake at Co. Rd. 6 and Niagara Lane in Plymouth. The festival features ice skating, dog sled rides, ice sculpting demonstrations, fireworks, ice fishing contests and more. "The weather is just not cooperating with us this year. We need snow, ice and a frozen lake to hold the festival. This year we just don't have the right conditions," said Recreation Supervisor Karol Greupner. The only other time the festival was cancelled was in 1996 when wind chills were 40 degrees below zero, according to Greupner. "This year we're at the other end of the spectrum compared to 1996," Greupner said. The City of Plymouth sponsors the Plymouth Fire and Ice Festival with support from area civic organizations and businesses. -30- PLYMOUTH A Beautiful Place To Live 3400 PLYMOUTH BOULEVARD.. - PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA 55447-1482 - TELEPHONE (763) 509-5000 ®� www.ci.plymouth.mn.us January 23, 2002 CITY OF PUMOUTR f', I c. SUBJECT: COUNTY ROAD 101 LANDSCAPING ELEMENT PLAN REVIEW CITY PROJECT NO. 9005 Dear Plymouth Resident: Prior to final approval of the County Road 101 construction plan by the Plymouth City Council, several open houses were held to receive public comment on the road construction plan including the landscaping element. A revised landscaping plan has been prepared which incorporates the comments received during the preliminary plan review open houses. An open house will be held on Thursday, February 7, from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m., Plymouth Room A, at the Plymouth Creek Center, 14800 — 34`h Avenue North to receive comments on the revised landscaping plan from property owners, adjacent to the County Road 101 project corridor. The corridor extends from 301h Avenue North to State Highway 55. If you are unable to attend the open house, a plan is on file in the Plymouth Engineering Department for review by the public prior to the open house. If you wish to receive additional information concerning the proposed landscape plan, please contact Daniel Campbell, Sr. Engineering Technician, at 763-509-5522 or e-mail dcampbel@ci.plymouth.mn.us.

The Commissioner's recommenda- tions were developed through dis- cussions with an advisory commit- tee (which included representa- tives from AMM) and research on programs throughout the country, The recommendations will be transmitted to the legislature and a bill incorporating the recommen- dations will be introduced this ses- sion. The Commissioner's recommen- dations include: • Adoption of a Mixed Housing Development Bill. • Expanding the tools and chang- ing the methods by which cities pay for road projects, including collector streets.

In cases where a pro- posed development is consistent with the city's zoning ordinance the burden would be on the city to prove health or safety concerns. 9 Requiring a cost impact state- ment when (1) a city imposes regu- lations on a housing development that are in excess of the state's building code, (2) a city amends its zoning ordinance; or (3) a city requires a developer to reduce a project's density even though the development complies with the city's zoning ordinance. • Establishing a technical advi- sory group of the Construction Codes Advisory Council to de- velop model ordinances that re- duce the costs of compact, mixed use, new development and in -fill re- development. The Mixed Housing Development bill would provide that if a devel- oper proposes a mixed housing development, then the city must, in good faith, offer "reasonable regu- latory accommodations" to facili- tate the economic feasibility of the development. "Reasonable regu- latory accommodations" would in- clude increased density, smaller set -backs, smaller street widths and smaller lots. A "mixed hous- ing development" would be de- fined as a development that in- cludes at least one of the following (1) both for -sale and rental hous- ing, with at least 211 percent of the units rental; (2) rental housing where at least 20% Oi the units are affordable to households earning 50 percent of the median income or at least 40% of the units are af- fordable to households earning 60% of the median income; (3) for - sale housing where at least 20% of the units have a selling price below the area's median selling price. The legislation would exempt cit- ies in counties with a population of 30,000 or less and cities that have adopted an inclusionary housing ordinance. The legislation would also provide a high priority for MHFA funding for developments located in a city having an inclusionary housing ordinance or built underthe provisions of the act. AMM is in the process of review- ing the recommendations and would appreciate input from mem- ber cities. The complete MHFA recommendations are posted on the AMM web site at www.amml45.org.

NRI Update: The Metropolitan Council and its partners continue to work on a natural resources inventory for the seven -county metropolitan area. Maps illustrating "regionally significant" natural re- sources are scheduled to be completed March 6. Met Council Announces 2030 Population Forecasts of an Additional 930,000 Residents The Metropolitan Council has released new popula- tion forecasts that project 930,000 new residents for the seven -county metropolitan area between 2000 and 2030. The previous forecast, which only went out to the year 2020, had projected 500,000 new people in the region. The new forecast also projects that the region will be home to 460,000 new house- holds and 550,000 new employees by the year 2030. The projections would result in a regional population of 3.6 million in 2030, as compared to the current population of 2.6 million, and approximately 1.5 mil- lion households in 2030, as compared to 1 million today. While births still represent a majority of the growth, migration is becoming an increasingly im- portant source of new residents. The new forecast projects 75,000 more households by 2020 than cities currently have planned for in their comp plans. The Council is expected to see sub -regional break- downs of this forecast at their Jan. 30 meeting. DATE: January 24, 2002 TO: The City Councilmembers FROM: & Daniel L. Faulkner, P.E., Director of Public Works SUBJECT: MEETING REQUESTED BY TOM BELTING, DEVELOPER OF PIKE LAKE WOODS ADDITIONS (BASS LAKE ROAD AND DEERWOOD LANE) This is to inform you that you may be contacted by Tom Belting, the developer of the Pike Lake Woods residential subdivision north of Bass Lake Road at Deerwood Lane and Forestview Lane, for the purpose of meeting to discuss "issues" that he has with the City. Over the past few months, staff has met with and provided information to Mr. Belting regarding the financial guarantees involved with his development, right-of-way and easement concerns, legal descriptions, developer agreements, pond maintenance agreements, etc. On December 18, 2001, Mr. Belting provided an envelope full of various information relating to his concerns and issues which I believe he intended for all the Councilmembers to read. This information is available in my office if any Councilmembers are interested in reviewing it. Staff has, to the best of our abilities, provided Mr. Belting with any and all information that he has requested and we are available to meet with him individually or in a group meeting with any Councilmembers. cc: Dwight D.
