SURVEY OF BASKETBALL HOOPS ON PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAYS - John Tufte, Sewer and Water Meter Reader, will be conducting the survey of basketball hoops on public right-of-ways. Since John covers one-third of the City each month, the complete project will require three months. The --City Council should determine whether this time length is acceptable in light of the original direction that a report be provided no later than November 21 of this year. 3. WATER RESTRICTION SPRINKLING VIOLATIONS - Attached is a memorandum and list from Daryl Sulander showing a status report of the water ban penalties for 1988. There were a total of thirty-eight $100 penalties assessed involving twenty-eight individual parties. It appears that approximately one-third of those parties were commercial/industrial concerns, while two-thirds were residential properties. I expect that some individuals will elect not to pay the penalty and instead, have the amount assessed against the property. We will make every effort to schedule these special assessment hearings as soon as possible so that the information does not become dated. (I-3) 4. MINUTES: a.

In past years, city crews have plowed 2-3/4 miles of sidewalks and trails to provide access to Pilgrim Lane Elementary School, Plymouth Middle School, Armstrong Senior High and Wayzata Senior High. A number of additional on street trails were plowed along with street snow and ice control efforts. This year crews will experimentally plow an additional 19 miles, or about half of all City sidewalks and trails. GUIDELINES FOR DETERMINING TRAILS FOR PLOWING The following guidelines determined the categories of trails and sidewalks to be included in this year's experimental plowing program: 1. Trail/walk provides year-round access to school from new or developed area and is within 1/2 to 3/4 mile school designated non school bus service area. 2. Trail/walk provides access to high use parks that have skating and year-round running trails. 3. Trail/walk is striped on the side of a roadway, carrying a high volume of pedestrian traffic in the winter. MILES OF TRAILS TO BE PLOWED BY CATEGORY Trails Serving Schools - 9.5 miles.

TRAILS PLYMOUTH ON PARADE COUNCIL INITIATES EXPANDED TRAIL/SIDEWALK PLOWING PROGRAM ON ONE YEAR EXPERIMENTAL BASIS Students walking to school, joggers and park users should have an easier time getting around during the winter of 1988-89. The Citv Cniint-11 hnc adopted an experimental, -one year program of expanded trail/sidewalk plowing. Under the program almost 22 miles of City trails/walks will be plowed. The program will increase the number of miles of trails/walks plowed from 2.75 in 1987-88 to 21.75 miles this winter. The Council emphasizes that the expanded plowing is on -a one-year trial basis. It will be evaluated this spring in light of its benefits and the estimated costs versus actual costs. The trail/walk plowing program is expected to cost $60,000 in 1988-89. GUIDELINES FOR DETERMINING HIGH PRIORITY TRAILS Plymouth has 38 miles of trails. Because of the considerable labor and equipment expenses which would be required to plow all trails, the City Council designated certain trails and sidewalks high priority based upon the following guidelines: Schools: Maintaining existing trail/walk plowing to provide access to schools and provide better access to schools from newly developed areas. City officials followed school bussing policy to determine which walks and trails would be added to the plowing schedule. Junior high and elementary school students living within 1/2 mile of their school and those senior high students within 3/4 miles of their school walk to school. A total of 9-1/2 miles of trails and walks will be plowed to provide access to Plymouth schools from residential areas. Affected schools are: Oakwood, Greenwood, Pilgrim Lane and Zachary Lane Elementary Schools; Plymouth Middle School and Wayzata East Junior High School; Wayzata Senior High and Armstrong Senior. School access that have been plowed in past years: 1. Vicksburg sidewalk from Co. Rd. -6 to Wayzata Senior High 2. 36th Ave. from Armstrong Senior High to Co. Rd. 18 3.

MEMBERS PRESENT: MEMBERS ABSENT: STAFF PRESENT: Chairman Quass, Commissioners Anderson, Bigelow, Naftzger, Porzio and Stulber4 Commissioners Patterson Associate Planner Al Cottingham and Building Official Joe Ryan MOTION was made by Commissioner Bigelow, seconded by Commissioner Naftzger to approve the August, 9, 1988 Minutes as amended. VOTE. 5 Ayes. MOTION carried. Commissioner Stulberg abstained. NEW BUSINESS: Chairman Quass introduced the Board members and reviewed the Variance criteria as contained in the Zoning Ordinance. MOTION TO APPROVE VOTE - MOTION CARRIED The request submitted by Mark and Carolyn Hamlin was MARK & CAROLYN HAMLIN introduced for a Variance from the front yard setback of the property located at 18420 31st Avenue North, per the September 8, 1988 Staff Report. Mark Hamlin reviewed his request pointing out that there was 13 feet of right-of-way between the road and his property line where other lots in the area only have 10 feet. He noted that it seemed as though a portion of his lot had been lost due to the wider right-of-way. He indicated if the proposed addition were moved to the rear of the home it would have an impact on the windows in both his dining area and the basement. Chairman Quass inquired as to why the addition could not be shifted to the rear to have the same sight line as the main area of the house. Board of Zoning Adjustments and Appeals September 20, 1988 Page 2 Mr. Hamlin stated that this would have an effect on the two windows that were identified earlier and it would also impact the rear yard of his home which is already very small. Commissioner Bigelow inquired as to the lot coverage of the home with the addition. Planner Cottingham noted that it was less than 20 %. Commissioner Bigelow inquired what was the front yard of —' this property since his home was addressed off 31st Avenue North and faced Urbandale Lane. Planner Cottingham pointed out that both Urbandale Lane and 31st Avenue North are classified as front yards in the Zoning Ordinance. Chairman Quass noted that he had a difficult time in seeing how this request met the Variance criteria. It appeared to be the petitioner's desire to locate the addition in this manner. Mr. Hamlin noted the home is very small and he needs to expand it for his family needs. He is trying to have the addition compatible with the rest of this home and be compatible with the rest of the neighborhood. . Chairman Quass stated that the Board needed to find a uniqueness for this proposal and be sure there would not be a precedent being set. Mr. Hamlin noted that most other homes in the area have other options in which to add on to their home and ensure the nice appearance. He is concerned with the aesthetics of his home not only for himself, but for the rest of the neighborhood. Chairman Quass reiterated that the Hamlins had other options in which to add on to their home, even though that may not be their desire. Commissioner Porzio inquired whether Urbandale Lane was the only access into this subdivision. Mr. Hamlin responded affirmatively, noting that there may be other access points in the future.. Chairman Quass inquired i f there is only one window in the dining area. Mr. Hamlin responded affirmatively. 7—" -'A G, Board of Zoning Adjustments and Appeals September 20, 1988 Page 3 Mr. Ron McKitterick, 3115 Urbandale Lane, stated his home is on the opposite side of Urbandale Lane from this home and he is concerned with the aesthetics of this home and its impact on his home. He felt the request by the Hamlins was reasonable. Chairman Quass noted this request and this parcel were not unique to the City in his views. Mr. Hamlin stated it is unique as to the shape of the lot and how the house was placed on this lot. Commissioner Naftzger inquired whether the addition were flush with the home and no Variances were sought, the petitioner could construct a 16 foot x 16 foot room. He felt that this was a good size room for a family room Mr. Hamlin stated that they would like to have the room larger than that in order to meet their family needs. The Board discussed the distance between the edge of the curb and the property lines and the fact that there was 13 feet of right-of-way between the edge of the street and this property line versus 10 feet in other cases. Mr. Hamlin noted the encroachment would not be noticeable due to the curve in the road and the fact that this right- of-way is wider than many other right-of-ways. He also pointed out that this appeared to be an unusual way in placing the home on the lot and not having the home parallel to Urbandale Lane. Chairman Quass pointed out that the Board needs to look at this request and its impact on the entire City and not just this neighborhood. Mr. Hamlin noted this addition would benefit the City in many ways as well as benefiting himself. MOTION by Commissioner Stulberg to approve the request for a MOTION TO APPROVE Variance from the minimum front yard setback for the property located at 18420 31st Avenue North for the following reasons: 1. This is a corner lot and the placement of the home is unusual. 2. The shape of the lot and the fact that the lot line on Urbandale Lane is a curvilinear line makes this very unique. . MOTION died for lack of a second. MOTION DIES Board of Zoning Adjustments and Appeals September 20, 1988 Page 4 The Board discussed other options for the addition along with hardships involved, the shape of the lot, and the size of the room addition. Commissioner Stulberg felt that this lot was a gateway into this subdivision and should be aesthetically pleasing for the neighborhood. Coimnissioner Anderson inquired as to the Building Code requirements as far as covering the basement windows. Building Official Ryan stated that they would need to relocate the window or possibly borrow light from another room in order to meet the Code requirements. Commissioner Anderson inquired if the overhang could extend into a front yard. Building Official Ryan responded affirmatively as long as it did not exceed a distance of 4.5 feet. MOTION by Commissioner Anderson, seconded by Commissioner MOTION TO DENY Porzio, to de-iiv the request for a Variance from the minimum front yard setback for property located at 18420 31st Avenue North for the reasons stated in the draft Resolution. Vote. 6 Ayes—MOTION Carried. VOTE - MOTION CARRIED Chairman Quass reviewed the right to appeal procedures for the Hamlins. The request submitted by Jim Sandberg was introduced for a JIM SANDBERG Variance from the side yard setback for property located at 18130 8th Avenue North, per the September 8, 1988 Staff Report. Mr. Sandberg reviewed the history of this parcel and the situation involved. Commissioner Stulberg inquired who had platted this property. Planner Cottingham responded Orono Construction approximately three years ago. Chairman Quass inquired if there were any implications as to the City granting a Variance when this land was platted. Mr. Sandberg stated that he was told it was acceptable to add on to the front of his home. Chairman Quass asked for the distance between this home and the home to the east. Mr. Sandberg responded approximately 30 feet. Board of Zoning Adjustments and Appeals 'September 20, 1988 Page 5 Mr. Sandberg pointed out that the topography of this lot and the drainage over the rear of the home create a problem in placing a detached structure to the rear of the home. There is also very little room between the existing home and the side property line in which to place a driveway. Chairman Quass said he felt that he could support the request based on the fact that there are currently no detached garages in this neighborhood, the shape of the lot is unusual and the topography does not allow for an alternative location for a structure. Commissioner Naftzger inquired wily the garage could not be moved to the west, approximately 4 feet in order to eliminate the Variance. Mr. Sandberg noted that it would be difficult to tie the roof lines together and that this would be poor for the snow load conditions. He also pointed out that this would eliminate the main entrance into the home.

Commissioner Marofsky asked that with the platting of this parcel, could this parcel be sold, and would it be interconnected with adjacent property. Coordinator Dillerud stated at some point this would be the case, but at this point they will have to make provisions for a temporary access and use the present access road. Commissioner Marofsky inquired if they should add to the resolution that this be a joint driveway access. Coordinator Dillerud stated there is no other way into the property other than the joint access road. The access was studied by the City Engineer and it has been decided that the access road can handle it. Coordinator Dillerud stated MOTION TO APPROVE VOTE - MOTION CARRIED RNWNL/RYAN MPUD FINAL PLAT/PLAN GROVES OFFICE PARK AND ADDITION (88049) Planning Commission Minutes September 28, 1988 Page 236 that the site will function alone.

There was no one present to speak on this item. Chairman Pauba closed the Public Hearing.

Mr. Turpin stated that he is checking. Chairman Pauba inquired if there were any comments on the Staff Report. Mr. Turpin indicated that he had no comments. Terry Schlink, Northfield, Minnesota, identified himself and stated the building had three parts. The meeting roan, which is in the center, is the tallest part and has skylights. The top of the skylight measures 40 feet. Discussion ensued regarding the ordinance restriction of 35 feet in a residential district. Coordinator Dillerud stated that the height was given approval by the site reports on hand, however he will check on it. Chairman Pauba stated they would require a variance on the site plans, however there would probably be no problem with a variance. - Chairman Pauba opened the Public Hearing. Chairman Pauba introduced Mr. and Mrs. S. Friedman, 4155 Upland Lane, Plymouth, Minnesota. Mr. and Mrs. Friedman indicated that they had no questions. Chairman Pauba closed the Public Hearing.

Chairman Pauba introduced Dennis Batty, 3319 Mumford Road, Brooklyn Center, architect for Vision of Glory Church. Mr. Batty pointed out that there is presently 8-10 existing parking spaces along 26th Avenue North. Mr. Batty indicated that they are requesting parking in this area and leaving a large area undeveloped because of future expansion plans. Discussion ensued as to future expansion plans and parking. Mr. Batty pointed out that they have enough parking for this phase. Commissioi,,.c Zylla inquired if they need the setback for this phase. Mr. Batty stated that if they did not get the setback for either Highway 55 or 26th Avenue North, the whole concept would not work, as it would not provide enough parking. However, with the Higway 55 variance, it would still work. Commissioner Marofsky inquired, hypothetically, as to the square footage of Phase II. Mr. Batty indicated there was 13,000 square feet. Commssioner Marofsky stated that at 13,000 square feet, it would not exceed 20% lot coverage and they would need a variance when and if Phase II was built. Mr. Batty indicated the plan could be adjusted to 20%. Chairman Pauba opened the Public Hearing. Chairman Pauba introduced Bill Fredregill, 1437 Larch Lane, Plymouth, Minnesota. Mr. Fredregill indicated he had no comments Chairman Pauba introduced Mery Bjerke, 15925 4th Avenue North, Plymouth, Minnesota. Mr. Bjerke indicated he had no comments.

Commissioner Zylla inquired if they are required to bring the parking setbacks into conformance. Coordinator Dillerud stated that in past experience there is no ordinance that requires them to do so. Commissioner Zylla stated he was not supportive of a variance along 26th Avenue North and was not very supportive of a variance along Highway 55. Commissioner Zylla inquired whether they could leave parking along 55 as is, without a variance. Coordinator Dillerud stated that it probably would be a non -conforming use. Commissioner Marofsky inquired if the church has gone over the parking issue with a professional parking engineer with respect to the parking layout. Mr Batty indicated they had not. Chairman Pauba stated that he does not agree with any parking variance, but if there is an ideal situation, the Highway 55 variance would come pretty close as far as impact. Commissioner Wire stated he agrees with impact but at this point there is alternative areas on site in order to construct the parking they need. As to future construction, that is a separate item. Discussion ensued as to proposed future parking in the plans now. MOTION by Commissioner Zylla, seconded by Commissioner MOTION TO APPROVE Marofsky to approve the Site Plan with no variances but that the existing parking along Highway 55 be left as is and that the existing parking along 26th Avenue North be brought into conformance.

UNITED PROPERTIES The reading of the September 20, 1988 Staff Report was DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION waived. MPUD FINAL PLAN/PLAT, TOWNE CENTRE AT PARKERS Commissioner Marofsky inquired as to the proposed uses and LAKE ( 88065 ) if they had a list. Coordinator Dillerud stated they did. Chairman Pauba introduced Ron Krank, 300 1st Avenue North, Plymouth, Minnesota, the architect representing United Properties. Mr. Krank provided an overview of their request with the following points: (1) Signage; and (2) Landscape. mr. Krank indicated that they are requesting a v3r,ance for signage to allow 8.3% wall coverage for wall signs. Mr. Krank provided a brief description of sign quality, colors, etc. Commissioner Zylla indicated his concerns over the length of the list of uses. Discussion ensued as to why the list of uses could not be resolved before being brought to the Planning Commission. Commissioner Marofsky indicated that they could classify all uses as Conditional Use Permit and have than come in for each use, or alternatively, classify as B-2 and anything else would need a Conditional Use Permit. Discussion ensued as to B-2 use. Tom Bisanz of United Properties identified himself and made a statement as to use and traffic/parking. Mr. Bisanz recommended Attachment A to the staff recommendation be adopted as to uses allowable. Commissioner Marofsky stated that United Properties is a responsible developer. However, Comnissioner Marofsky indicated his concern about the possibility of the project changing hands at some point and therefore would like to be specific as to uses. Cosmiissioner Zylla indicated that besides 3 items on the Attachment A list that are B-3 or B-2 with a Conditional Use Permit, everthing else is B-2, either permitted or =- -XA CD Planning Commission Minutes September 28, 1988 Page 241 conditional. Commissioner Zylla also indicated that the three items he indicated could be B-2 with a Conditional Use Permit. Coordinator Dillerud indicated that Attachment B to the Staff recommended approval action involves all B-2 uses. Discussion ensued if there would be a problem with all B-2 permitted uses and conditional uses with a Conditional Use Permit. Commissioner Marofsky indicated that for a Class II restaurant they should have to cane in for a Conditional Use Permit. Mr. Bisanz stated he had no problem with that. Coordinator Dillerud stated that this neighborhood shopping center is not intended to be competitive with every shopping center in the City and therefore it should have not have all the uses as other shopping centers. There is no neighbc-=-n_,,,d cx-miierical guiding or B-2 zoning at this site. The shopping center is responsive to a special provision of the PUD ordinance. Commissioner Wire indicated that the question is that when they started this- they did not consider what the shopping center be would be limited to, and that now was the time to address this issue. B-2 is reasonable and conforms with other shopping centers in the City. Mr. Bisanz agreed with the B-2 classification but asked for consideration in two ares: (1) Daycare or nursery, and (2) Class II restaurants. Chairman Pauba opened the public hearing. No one is present to speak. Chairman Pauba closed the public hearing. Commissioner Zylla inquired as to the variance for signage. Mr. Krank reviewed the sign requirements requested. Commissioner Marof sky inquired as to signage percentage and if the developers- would use two ends of the building. Mr. Bisanz indicated that they would not use the two ends of the building. Commissioner Marof sky inquired as to the price signs for the gas station. Mr. Bisanz indicated that the price signs would be placed on posts near the pump islands. Coordinator Dillerud indicated that the price signs for the gas station have been included in the signage percentage in the past. -7— --xA)c� Planning Commission Minutes September 28, 1988 Page 242 Discussion ensued as to how United Properties was calculating percentage per tenant, and not percentage of the entire wall area. Mr. Bisanz stated that their drawing indicated per tenant, and if that was the case, they may not be over the 5% ordinance limit for signage if they included the entire wall area where signs are permitted. Mr. Bisanz requested a sign variance to allow 8.3% of wall area for sign face per tenant. MOTION by Commissioner Marofsky, seconded by Commissioner MOTION TO APPROVE Wire to approve the Final Plat/Plan with the 14 conditions as proposed, with the following changes: (1) On #6, signage is approved as proposed by Petitioner, 8.27%, without any wall signage at the ends of the shopping center; (2) On #13, allowable uses shall be those listed as permitted in a B-2 district including a convenience grocery with gasoline dispensing not to exceed 5,000 square feet, and all other uses which are shown .a - rondit1onal. uses in a B-2 district may be allowed, but shall require a Conditional Use Permit.

Chairman Pauba introduced Bob Burger, President, Plymouth Development Council. Mr. Burger provided an overview on the changes suggested regarding lot changes to exclude unenclosed and unroofed decks and roof overhangs from the calculation of maximum ground coverage. Commissioner Stulberg indicated he had no problem with excluding decks but was concerned ab,-,;tt : ,-.e size of decks to be allowed. Commissioner Marofsky indicated the need to limit the size of decks. Discussion ensued regarding deck sizes and ground coverage. Commissioner Stulberg stated that there should be a way to limit deck size in proportion to the square footage of the lot. Chairman Pauba opened the public hearing. No one is present to speak. Chain Pauba closed the public hearing. Commissioner Marofsky indicated that the only decks which are excluded are the decks enclosed by a roof. Commissioner Marofsky proposes the following change to read, "Unenclosed decking, in excess of the ordinance's maximum ground coverage for structures, shall be permitted for single family lots subject to the following conditions: (1) It shall be constructed over porous ground surfaces; (2) It shall be designed to permit drainage through the decking; (3) It shall be uncovered except for normal roof line projections or open decking above; and (4) The total deck will not cover more than 20% of the ground area of the lot. Discussion ensued regarding the percentage amount. Engineer Harrison indicated that (1) the percentage is high; (2) there will be some benefit if the ground under the deck is porous; and (3) it will have a detrimental effect on storm water drainage. __5_ .

Of these, six were accepted, four were rejected, and three were deferred for study. The Suggestions were: 1. That the City install devices for heating and maintaining constant temperature of fuel in police vehicles to improve starting efficiency in cold weather. This suggestion was rejected since this unit will not work on squads. It creates hesitation on rapid acceleration and would not fit under the hood. 2. That the City install voice mailbox recording to insure employees of getting complete, correct messages. This suggestion was deferred until further results are available on the telecommunications study. 3. That a standardized memo format be used City-wide from -the UNISYS• "Phrase" file, rather than changing paper in sheet feeder bin each time when doing a memo. Award: $50.00 4. That the City contract with Corcoran Pet Center rather than Funk's for holding of impounded/stray animals. This idea saved money for the City and for residents. Award: $500.00 5.

The Hennepin County Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) was created primarily to a i st m ;;: iC.i pal i ti es in Hennepin County, at their request, with their prograns ;or job creation and tax base expansion, radevelopment, and capital improve::,ent Projects. The Commissioners alto felt it could'be useful'.a-s- the development of transpurtatlon syste;ns,'such,-as.'1•i-gh rai•1• transit, takes place in the County. The municipalities .i•ri 'Hennepin County=vary greatly in population and. geograph ical -- size, needs, and other factors. I know they'tiav�`done'an 'outstanding job of developing healthy communities which offer a good quality of life, because I observe the results of local officials` effr,rts every day as I go around the Cour:;y.

The Hennepin County HRA, by design of the County Hoard, can only act at the request and with the cnr.sent of a municipality or other local government. Further, we have no desire to do what local housing authoril.ies and municipalities are already set ;gip to do. We believe, however, •that the needs and problems of comm;rnities often transcend!local boundaries and can sometimes be addressed more effectively through intergovernmental partnerships.

A few weeks ago my son was involved in an auto accident in which he struck a parked car. The officer who arrived on the scene, forgive my inability to spell his name, "BADGE #8", is unquestionably the finest officer I have ever met. This officer conducted himself in a pro- fessional and courteous manner. He communicated with my son, myself and the owner of the vehicle my son hit in an exemplary manner. He was informative, helpful, thorough, efficient and friendly. I am proud that my city of Plymouth has officers of this caliber. Please keep up the good work. Sincerely, William F.

Yeager 17405 - 6th Avenue North Plymouth, MN 55447 SUBJECT: YOUR SEPTEMBER 7, 1988 LETTER Dear Mr. Yeager: I had hoped that you would take the opportunity to speak with City Assessor Scott Hovet so that the two of you could review one another's records with respect to the valuation of your home and other homes in your neighborhood. This continues to be the most straight -forward means of resolving this issue. A second alternative is for you tc, attend the Board of Review meeting which is held annually, normally in May or June, to contest the valuation of your homestead. The Board of Review is your opportunity to submit evidence with respect to the home's valuation. The Assessing Department must then put together a report comparing your homestead to other comparables in the City. The City Council, sitting as the Board of Review,. makes a final determination of whether or not they believe the valuation placed on your home is appropriate. Your appeal to the local Board of Review entitles you to appeal to the County and ultimately the tax courts if you do not receive satisfaction. If your discussions with Assessor Hovet do not resolve this issue, I encourage you to attend next year's Board of Review. To respond to your specific concerns, I have attached a memorandum from Sue Mauderer, Appraiser. She addresses your concerns in greater detail. If, after reading Ms. Mauderer's memo you still have questions, please call her or the City Assessor Scott Hovet to make arrangements to further discuss this matter.

I apologize for not responding to your letter sooner. My letter must not have made my position clear. The entire essence of my complaint, relating to taxes, revolves around the assessed value of my property as it compares.to the market or real value of my property. For instance: #3 "The house you are living in has appreciated since 1982." Not so. The values you show are assessed values. The fact I was asserting is that while the assessed value rose each year since 1982, the real or market value of the home went from $276,000 in 1980 to $270,000 in 1987. I paid $6,000 less than the house was built for in 1981. There was no appreciation. ' #1 "The average valuations in your neighborhood are between $200,000 and $250,000. Yours is about $256,000. There is a direct relationship between the valuation of your home and the amount of property taxes you pay. it This is exactly my point. I explained that homes that were selling for an equal or greater amount were being assessed at a lower value than my home. Therefore, homes selling for more than mine are paying less taxes. Mayor, I do intend to speak with Scott Hovet. I have the records of valuation for my home as well as the records of all the other homes in my neighborhood. All I can ask for is an impartial judgment and parity in assessing the value of my home. Again, I very much appreciate your response and consideration. 4de , Yeager 17405 6th Avenue North Plymouth, MN 55447 cc: S. Hovet DATE: M MEMO CITY OF PLYMOUTH 3400 PLYIDUrH BOULEVARD, PLYM11H, MINNESOTA 55447 September 26, 1988 Frank Boyles, Assistant City Manager FROM: Sue Mauderer, Appraiser SUBJECT: RANDE YEAGER, 17405 6TH AVENUE NORTH, PIN#32-118-22-32-0021 Previous owner paid $276,676 - 8-21-81. (1981 Parade Home) They built $20,000 addition - 9-10-81. New owner (Yeager) paid $270,000 - 8-14-87. 1982 - $220,000 .795 (EMV vs. S.P.) 1983 - 228,300 +4% 1984 - 233,500 +2% 1985 - 234,900 1986 - 234,900 1987 - 251,400 +7% 1988 - 255,800 +2% .947 (EMV vs. S.P.) It appears previous owners ,over paid" as is scu etimes the case with Parade Hares. As time goes on, the market does not support the original "up front" money paid for ultra decorating and landscaping included in Parade Hares. That is why the assessor reviews "market trends" plus the individual sale price of a hare. Too many inequities would exist if the assessor assumed all sale prices were typical market prices and simply valued homes at their sale price. Part of the assessor's job is to discover those sales which are not typical. The assessor responds to market trends after they have occurred. For that reason, estimated market values and increases always are a "catch up" to recent market sales activity. El dr. Yeager's home has received the same increases over. the years as other tomes in Burl Oaks . The general trend of sale prices in Burl Oaks has been applied equitably to Mr. Yeager's home as well as to the rest of the .eighborhood. Had the assessor estimated the original market value at the sale price amount back in 1982, the current 1988 value would, no doubt, be 7vervalued. But such was not the case. After increasing the market value nearly every year since the home was originally built in 1982, the current 1988 value of $255,800 is not an over valuation compared to Mr. Yeager's recent sale price of $270,000. The ratio between market value and sale price Ls .947 and is typical of Mr. Yeager's neighbors as well as other residential ?roperty in the City. In fact, many areas in Plymouth inflated at a faster 'rate than Burl Oaks this past year, and their market --values took larger increases. Df sixteen immediately neighboring properties, sale prices from 1980 to 1988 range from $135,000 to $270,000 (Mr. Yeager's) with an average of $183,600. 1988 estimated market values range from $149,600 to $255,800 (Mr. Yeager's), with an average of $178,700. The ratios comparing the assessors 1988 estimated market values to the sale prices range from .817 to 1.124 (Mr. Yeager's is .947) with an average of .998. Four homes have a lower ratio that !4r. Yeager's, and all the rest are higher. Of the twenty-nine hones in Burl Oaks valued or sold over $200,000, the sale prices •_ange from $195,000 to $307,500, with an average of $239,000. (N=. Seager's is $270,000). Only three homes sold for as much or more than Mr. Yeager's. 1988 market values range from $181,000 to $272,900 (Mr. Yeager's is $255,800), with an average of $228,400. Only six are valued as much or more than Mr. Yeager's. --from - .776 to 1.169 hones have a higher Ratios comparing 1988 market values to sale prices range (Mr. Yeager's-is .947) with and average -of .959. Fifteen ratio than Mr. Yeager's. In Minnesota assessors are legally mandated to value properties at 100% of market value. Acceptable standards are within 10%, high or low. Once the initial individual appraisal of a home is cotTleted the value is updated within a mass appraisal system. By all measurable standards, Mr. -Yeager's market value falls well within the norm compared to his own sale price, the sale prices of other homes in his neighborhood, the estimated market value of comparable properties, and the level of assessment in Burl Oaks (estimated market value vs. sale price). This is not to say the system is perfect or that inequities do not exist. The goal of the assessor is to keep the inequities at a minimum and make whatever corrections are necessary as they are discovered. To that end, the legislature requires the assessor to reappraise properties once every four years, as will be done in Mr. Yeager's neighborhood for the 1989 assessment. 2 September 30, 1988 P i 1 R.

Lincoln St. Kent, Ohio 44240 SUBJECT: CITY OF PLYMOUTH RECYCLING PROGRAM Dear Mr. Myers: Enclosed is a short brochure explaining the City of Plymouth's Recycling Program including a history, participation rate graphs and a zerox copy of the brochure, which was passed out to each resident. If after reviewing the brochure, you have any further specific questions, please do not hesitate to call the City of Plymouth's Recycling Coordinator, Dick Pouliot at Area Code 612-559-2800 or address correspondence to him c/o City of Plymouth, 3400 Plymouth Boulevard, Plymouth, Mn. 55447. Thank you. Sincere , qV rgil Schneider Mayor, City of Plymouth VS:sm 3400 PLYMOUTH BOULEVARD. PLYMOUTH. MINNESOTA 55447. TELEPHONE (612) 559-2800 distributed one to each single-family through four-plex home in the Cita•, along wish a brochure of instructions on how to package the Recyclable materials. Each homeowner was instructed to put cans in one grocery bag„ bottles in another and newspapers in the third. The grocer-; bags are placed in the blue box and then taken to the curb by 8:00 every Thursday morning„ which is Recycling day. In addition, at this time:, a cash drawing way implemented, the objectives of which are to provide an incentive, to publicize- the Recycling program and to place Recycling in general in a lighter vein. such as'a contest or a game in order to take some of the perceived drudger% out of Recycling and entice more residents to at least try it to find out how easy it really is. The cash drawing provides for $100 to be given away each week throughout the year. A computer listing of all the residential properties in the City was placed into a book with pages and lines numbered. A page and line -number are selected at the last Council meeting of each month for each week in the following month. As Recycling day approaches, that page .and line number identify a residential property who's street address is then checked at 8:00 in the morning of that Recycling day. If the Recyclables are at the curb by 8:00 in the morning and properly packaged, that resident wins $100. This $100 is usually presented at the following Council meeting which is cablecast and covered by the local newspapers. In the event no Recyclables are at the curb or they are improperly packaged, the 100 is added to the following week's drawing. The new program proved to be much more popular to the residents than the prior programs and 67 tons were collected in the first week of February, or 264 tons for the month of. February. In June•a total of 309 tons were collected. Participation rates increased from approximately 2,000 to 2,20U under the old t,,:ice-a-month and once -a -month programs to over 7,500 participating under the new program. The actual number of hous.eholds participating are counted on pickup day and as many as 7,719 homes participated in one week which equates to approximately 62 percent of the 12,500 single-family through four-plex residences in the City. This 62 percent participation on a weekly basis is estimated to equate to approximately an 85 percent participation rate on any given month in that several residents do not participate every week in the month. The new program for weekly collections is at a contract price of $5,500 per month for the first 150 tons and $30 per ton for each ton over 150 tons per month. The City of Plymouth, in 1986, picked up approximately 2 percent of -the waste stream and received 50 percent matching funds from Hennepin County. In 1987, the City achieved 10.7 percent of the waste stream diverted which equated to 70 percent of the net cost paid by Hennepin County. In 1988 the City estimates approximately 20 percent of the waste stream will be diverted, which will equate to 80 percent of the cost being assumed by Hennepin County.

Typing speed of 75 words per minute, tested in 8/87. 8. Shorthand word per minute speed of 40 words per minute. In comparing your application form I see that: 1. Under employment history you indicate that for just over two years (since 7/86), you have worked as a secretary at Gene Shavlik, CPA. Your duties include typing, word processing, type financial statements, make appointments, billing, accounts receivable, payable, assist accounts and property tax returns. 2. Your only other experience is as Manager of Physical Security, Wackenhut Corporation for some 16 years. Your application states that you recruited, hired, trained and scheduled employees, typed proposals, payroll and equal opportunity officer. In this position we were looking for individuals with strong typing skills, heavy dictation, computer entry and in the case of the Police Department, past police agency or legal experience if possible. Your only directly applicable experience is the two years of secretarial experience. For the Senior Clerk/Typist positions we were not interested in candidates with expertise in recruitment, hiring, training and scheduling employees with some experience in typing proposals, payroll and equal opportunity, which you achieved through your 16 years with the Wackenhut Corporation. ere Frank* Assistant City Manager FB:kec cc: Virgil Schneider, Mayor City Councilmembers e � l l IU t,a> laud LallE' N 0 1 LII Plymouth, MN 55447 September 23, 1988 Mr. Frank Boyles Assistant City Manager City of Plymouth 3400 Plymouth Boulevard Plymouth, MN 55447 Dear Mr. Boyles: Reference your letter of September 13, 1988. There were'TWO positions listed in the paper. Your letter only mentions one. A copy of the ad that was placed in .the Star and Tribune is enclosed. After reviewing the qualifications listed in this ad and the application I submitted to Plymouth, I feel I had the qualifications required for BOTH positions. Your letter stated that Plymouth was looking for someone with previous law enforcement experience, however, the ad did not. You are correct that my credentials suggest I've had supervisory experience. My credentials also suggest that I have the experience requested in the ad. In both letters you only mention one positior�—) In the ad it states, " 2 FT persons to provide office support...." What happened to the other job? Again I request a written explanation of Plymouth's hiring practices. Did both applicants hired for the above position take a skills test? The Civil Rights Act, Title VII of the Act states that an employer cannot, because of age, fail to hire an individual. I feel that Plymouth's application discriminates because it asks the year of -high school graduation. Perhaps this is a matter that should be brought up before the Plymouth City Council and the Equal Opportunity Commission. Sincerely, F nchon M.

CLERK.. -TYPIST POLICE DEPARTMENT POSITION Dear Ms. White: In your September 8 letter you asked about the City's procedure for reviewing applications. At present, we do not have a centralized ,human resources department, and instead rely upon individual departments to accomplish much of the recruitment and selection work. While there is general supervision from the Administrative Department, the individual department more or less makes the final hiring decision. In the case of the Senior Clerk Typist Police Department position, we were looking for -individuals who were willing to work a regular Sunday through Thursday, shift from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. each day. We placed premium on word processing skills, computer entry and_ filing system recording -- responsibilities, especially with previous law enforcement experience. Our finalist applications had substantial computeK entry and word processing experience. I have had the chance to review your application. You have had 16 years of experience as a "office manager." Your primary responsibilities appear to be in the area of recruitment, hiring, training and scheduling employees, with some responsibility in the area of typing proposals, payroll, etc. Your most recent two years of secretarial experience has some typing and word processing experience. We are unable to interview all persons who apply for City positions. This necessitates a determination of candidate credentials through the information they provide on the application form. As I read your application, your credentials suggest a more supervisory bent rather than high word processing/computer keyboard production. Nonetheless, to assess your skills, we would be glad to have you take some skills tests dealing with typing, spelling and filing. 3400 PLYMOUTH BOULEVARD, PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA 55447, TELEPHONE (612) 559-2800 a Franchon M.

TELEPHONE (612) 559-2800 ------------------ MAYOR SCHNEIDER ASSAILS PROPERTY TAX LAM PLYMOUTH HOMEOWNER TAXES UP 9.8 PERCENT PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA, October 10, 1988 -- Mayor Virgil Schneider today criticized the 1988 Minnesota Property Tax Law that will raise Plymouth homeowners' property tax by 9.8 percent. The Mayor's figures were based on estimates computed by the Minnesota House Research staff. Plymouth is a member of the Municipal Legislative Commission (MLC) that is challenging the constitutionality of the 1988 Minnesota Property Tax Law. Schneider gave these examples of property tax increases on three homes in Plymouth: Market Value Percentage Tax Increase 72,000 16.2% $107,000 7.1% $143,000 8.8% Total Plymouth property tax increases for all classifications, including multi -housing, commercial, and industrial, will be 11.7 percent under the 1988 law, for a total of $6.3 million. V "The Legislature has' again returned to the suburbs to pick the pockets of our taxpayers," said Schneider. Projections of the 1988 Property Tax Law show that the statewide total increase will be $176.2 million, with $170.7 million being shouldered by Plymouth and the rest of the metro area. The suburbs account for an increase of $140.9 million. "While the Legislature mandates tax increases for Plymouth taxpayers, they use our tax dollars to further reduce property taxes for most outstate homeowners. The average 1988 property tax bill for outstate homeowners is around $350. That's right, $350 a year! Most Plymouth homeowners pay six times that amount," said Schneider. The lawsuit filed by the MLC, a coalition of 15 suburban communities including Plymouth, is based on the uniformity tax clause. The lawsuit was filed August 4, 1988 in Ramsey County District Court. If the law is found unconstitutional, local governments may urge the governor to call a special session to correct the law. -30- I COUNT,: 27 ' P MUNICROPERTY TAX S iMULAT I ON � 11PALITY: 470 PLYMOUTH ' HOUSE RESEARCH DEI ' BASELINE: ESTIMATED PAYABLE 1988:CURRENT LAW 88/07/11 16,43,.
