The proposal would allow the existing home at 5405 Lane Vagabond to be connected to public sanitary sever service, in conjunction with installation of the Elm Creek Interceptor. The sewer connection is requested because the alignment of the interceptor will require removal of the on- site mound system for sanitary sewer disposal (private septic system) at 5405 Vagabond Lane. Unique circumstances make it infeasible to replace the mound system on the property. A map indicating the location of the subject site is provided below. This letter is being mailed to all landowners within 750 feet of the site in order to provide notice and information about the application — in advance of the official notice that will be sent out prior to the Planning Commission's public hearing on the matter. The City will send out another letter notifying you of the Planning Commission public hearing date, not less than ten days prior to the hearing date. The purpose of the public hearing is to allow neighboring property owners to appear in front of the Planning Commission to ask questions and make comments relating to the application. You may also submit comments in writing. All written comments will become part of the public record. If you have any questions or comments concerning this application or the review procedures, please call Shawn Drill, Sr. Planner, at 509-5456. In addition, you may review information relating to this application at City Hall during regular office hours. Office hours at City Hall are 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Mondays and Wednesdays through Fridays, and 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Tuesdays, except holidays. Plymouth City Hall is located at 3400 Plymouth Boulevard. Sincerely, Barbara G.

This is the second of two open houses the City is hosting for this study, which may eventually result in changes to the City's Comprehensive Plan as it affects this part of the community. Although your property is outside the study area, our records indicate that your property is within 750 feet of an area where change may occur. On August 8, 2000, the City of Plymouth adopted an updated Comprehensive Plan. During the course of updating the plan, the City identified several areas that have a potential for change in land use. Your property is within 750 feet of what the City formerly designated as "Study Area A" and "Study Area B" and has now combined into the County Road 73 Corridor Area. A presentation and open house are scheduled between 6:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, July 24, 2002, at Plymouth Creek Center, 14800 34`h Avenue North. We will begin with a formal presentation of the alternatives at approximately 6:45 p.m. Representatives from City staff, the City's consultants and Hennepin County staff will all speak. Following the formal presentation, staff and consultants will be available for group and individual questions. Your comments and questions regarding the study area are welcome.

Adjourn Ross Thorfinnson, Jr. — Policy and Legislative Consultant I-494 Corridor Commission — Written Report for July 17, 2002 Monthly Report for June 18 — July 16, 2002 To date, the second year of the contract, an average of over 15 hours per week have been spent on I-494 Corridor Commission policy and legislative activities, constituent and community outreach and communication with member cities. The hours consist of meetings, phone calls and preparation time. Policy and Legislative Activities The policy and legislative activity during this period included work with the MN Transportation Coalition, the MN Transportation Alliance and the development of the new advocacy group MOVE. Minnesota Transportation Coalition The next meeting of the MN Transportation Coalition's next meeting is scheduled for Monday, July 22, 2002. The Coalition is beginning its work for the 2003 legislative session. Several committees were established, and I have volunteered to serve on the committee on membership recruitment and another committee that will develop the coalition's policy and platform for the 2003 legislative session. MN Transportation Alliance I continue to attend meetings of this group. 1-494 Corridor Commission Lobbying and Political Efforts — Advocacy Group Nearly 2,500 brochures and a letter soliciting membership for MOVE have been mailed The mailing went to over 2,000 businesses in Eden Prairie, and the largest businesses and property owners in Bloomington and Minnetonka. The balance of the mailing went to businesses and individuals on a list that was built over the last several months, primarily names and businesses in Bloomington, but also included other contacts that have been made. The advocacy group now has several members, and has either collected or received pledges to date of over $8,500. Work continues on the membership drive with prospect breakfast meetings and additional mailings. In addition, I am in the process of planning candidate preview breakfasts to use as a membership drive draw. i- I C � � I-494 Corridor Commission Vanpool, Carpool and Bus Several options are available to save money and meet the transportation needs of your employees Tax Benefits Transit & Vanpools MN State tax credit (30% reduc- tion) • Federal tax deduction up to $100 I Ridematching and Bus Service /Vanpool: • On-site Ridematching • Cluster Analysis per emp ogee • Reduction of payroll taxes VanGOI Commuter:CheckE Available savings: • Pre-tax treatment of vanpool & transit expenses up to $100 BuS S#ervice • Bus Routes #680-696 ContactjJTe'Dave Van Hattum today for per- sonalized information and assistance email: t.net: , www.494corridor.org Z- t c.. LI - June 17, 2002 Dear Business and Community Leader: As you might have heard or read in local newspapers recently after the close of the 2002 Minnesota State Legislative Session, our state elected officials have once again been unable to pass legislation that provides a suitable amount of long-term funding to solve Minnesota's transportation system crisis. The current backlog of transportation needs is estimated at $10 billion statewide and growing and NO TRANSPOR TA TION BILL WAS PASSED THIS YEAR! Despite the best efforts of the Minnesota Transportation Coalition and other business and transportation- ficant amount of transportation investment for our oriented groups, we are again looking for a signi region's aging roadway and transportation systems. At the top of this list are two of the region's most significant pieces of infrastructure- the expansion and reconstruction of Interstates 494 and 35W, which remain unfunded in the region's Year r 2020 plan due to staggering price tags which increase each year of further funding delay. It is time for the residents, business leaders and suburban communities around I-494 and I -35W to take action. Your participation in a new, non-profit organization called MOVE will "speed up" transportation funding in these corridors to ensure the long-term economic survival of our communities and the region. Your membership in MOVE will provide for quality legislative representation in St. Paul and in Washington, D.C., and will put our elected officials "on notice" that our transportation projects must be their first priority. Your commitment to MOVE will ensure that upcoming local elections across the region will bring forth candidates on both sides of the aisle committed to providing adequate transportation system funding for the future. A brochure that provides more specific details on MOVE membership and how you can make a difference is enclosed for your convenience. Please take a few minutes to read the brochure and to fill out and send in your MOVE membership application today. Nothing will be accomplished, without a unified voice and an intensive lobbying effort at home in Minnesota and in Washington, D.C. We can N�ait no longer — THE TIME TO ACT IS NOW! Should you like more information about MOVE membership benefits or upcoming programs, please feel free to contact Ross Thorfinnson, Jr. at 612-819-1743 or email at: rthorfQaol.com.

Ron Abrams, Patty Carlson, John Kragness, Tom O'Keefe, Dave Van Hattum, Motions Approved: ➢ Consent agenda items (April minutes, monthly financial report, consultant written report) approved. ➢ I-494 Corridor Commission to invite candidates for local offices to attend future 494 Board meetings to discuss transportation issues and positions. ➢ Update Website and continue to pay hosting fee. ➢ Select only oneQit�attorney to provide counsel for the I-494 Corridor Commission in regards to the LJR Consulting Contract. Business Items Tom O'Keefe (Mn/DOT): Change of Schedule on I-494 Construction Projects. Mr. O'Keefe reported that, due to funding shortfalls, the start date for nearly every upcoming Mn/DOT construction project in the metropolitan area will be delayed approximately 3-4 years. While I-494 remains "one of Mn/DOT's top priorities", various of its construction projects will not commence until 2011-2012 or beyond. The addition of a third lane in each direction between Hwys 212 and 100 will, however, stay on its existing schedule. Mn/DOT is still seeking input on the list of deferred projects. Each member city, and individuals, are urged to send letters stressing the importance of keeping I-494 construction on schedule. Contact Mr. O'Keefe in you would like him to make a similar presentation to your City Council. Rep. Ron Abrams - Chair, House Tax Comm, Future of Transportation Funding. Rep. Abrams reported that the future of transportation funding in the House faces several critical challenges: 1) over half of legislators signing a "No Tax Increase" pledge, 2) the existing gas tax distribution formula that shortchanges the metro area (where traffic problems are a huge issue), and 3) the previous lowering of license tab fees. Rep. Abrams believes that new funding proposals will rely on increasing the gas tax to generate more money for roads, directing the MVET to transit funding, and increasing license tab fees in some fashion. Rep. Abrams rejects indexing the gas tax ("only one state tax is indexed") and a referendum on creation of a metro sales tax directed to transportation ("the metro area already pays more than it's share for transportation"). He also stated bonding is an acceptable method of future transportation funding. The I-494 C.C. can address the transportation funding impasse by lobbying new legislators to be elected in Edina, Eden Prairie and Minnetonka, a new Hennepin County Commissioner to be elected, and new leadership at Mn/DOT to be appointed by the next Governor. I-494 Website Updating (Van Hattum and Senness): The Board voted to continue paying for hosting of the Website. Van Hattum reported he will work on website updating and that a new and improved Website will be prepared by the time of the July Board meeting and that it will be updated as necessary thereafter. A mechanism will also be employed to track the number of hits on the site. Miscellaneous: ➢ I-494 origin/destination Study Update (Carlson) Market Line Research has been hired by the Met Council to do the proposed study and they will complete the study by the end of the summer. The Board requested that the research area extend from the airport through Plymouth. ➢ Organizational Financial Review and Expense Tracking System: rescheduled for the July Board meeting. ➢ Padilla, Speer, Bearsley PR Project (Hovland). Met Council will provide 520,000 in matching funds for the research component of the study. Padilla, Speer, Beardsley will outline their proposal for the research and grass-roots campaign at the July Board meeting. ➢ TDM Outreach Plan (Van Hattum). Mr. Van Hattum shared drafts of 1) a monthly reporting format, 2) the TDM budget for June -December, and 3) a strategic plan for outreach to employers, property managers and commuters. Copies of each of these documents will be e-mailed to Board members for comment and approval. Van Hattum will also e-mail a draft letter to employers to be sent from Mayor's in each member city. ➢ LJR Consulting. (Public meeting — not Executive Session). All members acknowledged receipt by their cities of a letter from Lisa Raduenz notifying members she had retained an attorney. The Commission approved hiring a single law firm for representation. Notice of potential claim was also provided to the League of MN Cities, insurance carrier for the Commission. ➢ Discussion of Amendment No. 2 to the Joint & Cooperative Agreement was held over to the July meeting. ➢ Van Hattum reported on his attendance at the I-494 Busway Advisory Task Force on 6/18/02. This group will be studying I-494 busway options and opportunities. Public input will continue through June. By the end of August, 2002, a new proposed service and facility plan will be set forth with Met Council approval scheduled for November, 2002 and service implementation in early 2003. ➢ A potential new start time (7:30 a.m.) for Board meetings will be discussed at the July Board meeting. ➢ Next Meeting.

Following completion, approximately 100% of the site will be converted to impervious area, of which 45% will comprise additional new impervious area. A complete project review application was received May 17, 2002. Runoff from the 0.5 acres of parking and rooftop areas currently has no stormwater treatment or rate control before being discharged directly into adjacent Shingle Creek. Proposed runoff from the site will be routed to two proposed Stormceptor Model STC -900 structures before being routed to the creek. The Stormceptors will provide 66% TSS removal for stormwater leaving the site. The Commission's Engineer required that the site have at least have 60% TSS removal for stormwater leaving the site, since the outlet discharges directly into the Creek.

Blank, Director, Parks and Recreation SUBJECT: Music in Plymouth/Amphitheater I just wanted to send the two of you a quick note to thank you and the rest of the maintenance crew for all your hard work in getting the amphitheater in tip-top shape for the Music in Plymouth 30' anniversary celebration. It was pretty touch and go there for a while, what with all the rain that fell, but once it finally stopped, you scrambled to get things done on time. I know that a lot of the work is last minute on the day of the event, and you always manage to do a great job. And, then, of course, there's the clean up the next day, which is also taken care of in an efficient and timely manner. This year's event was attended by 20,000 people, and from all indications, it appears that everyone had a wonderful time. Thanks again for the part you all played in helping to make that happen.
