FOR YOUR INFORMATION.....
1. DRAFT 1992-1996 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM -- During the
past month, Fred Moore, Dale Hahn and I have met with
representatives of.Ehlers '& Associates for the purpose of
projecting the fiscal impact of our proposed capital
improvement program. This year we have expanded the
analysis to include cash flow projections for tax
increment supported projects. Some projects contemplated
in our various tax increment financing plans are not
anticipated to be commenced prior to 1997, nonetheless,
we wanted to examine our capacity to undertake them if
and when they become viable.
This report is being circulated to you at this time in
order that you may begin to become acquainted with it. I
will place this item on an upcoming City Council agenda
for discussion and action. (I-1)
2. YMCA DETACHED WORKER PROGRAM -- At the last budget study
session, Councilmember Vasiliou expressed concern about
the purpose and funding of the YMCA Detached Worker
Program. Attached is a memorandum from Youth Service
Officer Nia Wronski, regarding her perspective on the
program. The City Council has provided funding to the
YMCA Detached Worker Program since 1987. The funding
amount started at $1,000 and was approved at $2,300 for
1992. (I-2)

3. CITY-WIDE CLASSIFICATION STUDY -- During the 1992 budget
study sessions, the Council expressed concern about the
funding formula for the city-wide classification update.
The City Council previously received a memorandum on this
topic. Attached is the final fee assessed against
Plymouth for this study. While $5,000 was originally
budgeted, the final fee is $3,550. The lower fee is
based upon a larger number of cities participating than
originally anticipated and the fact that only full-time,
rather than both full-time and part-time employees were
counted for fee assessment purposes. This method of
calculation tended to favor the larger cities who have a
greater number of part time employees who must be
considered as part of this study. (I-3)
4. NORTHWEST BOULEVARD/SCHMIDT LAKE ROAD -- Attached is a
memo from Fred Moore on the DNR permit received for the
Northwest Boulevard/ Schmidt Lake Road project. Fred's
memo also describes the final preparation of the plans
and specifications for the first phase of the
improvement. (I-4)
5. CUSTOMER SERVICE• LINE -- Attached is"'correspondence on
calls received on the Customer Service Line. (I-5)

PLYMOUTH DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL
MAY 8, 1991
PRESENT: Bob Burger, Burger Development Group -Chair; Marlin Grant, Mary
Anderson Construction Co.; Greg Frank, McCombs, Frank, Roos; Bill
Pritchard, Orin Thompson Homes; Gary Laurent, Laurent Builders,
Inc.; Craig Freeman, Freemans Inc.; Craig Scherber, Craig Scherber
and Assoc.; Charlie Pfeffer, Gonyea Company.
City of Plymouth: Mayor Kim Bergman; City Manager James Willis,
Community Development Director Blair Tremere; Building Official
Joe Ryan; and Public Works Director Fred Moore.
I. STATUS OF REPORT
A. Wetlands Regulations - Fred Moore explained that the report of the
Task Force had been approved by the City Council and essentially
the Council was now waiting to see what transpired at the -state
legislature which is considering a bill dealing with wetland
regulation. Bob Burger and Greg Frank commented that there were
aspects of the proposed bill that were.v.ery questionable in their
application in urban areas.
B. Financial Task Force Recommendation - Jim Willis noted that copies
of the report had been handed out and he provided an overview
which had also been shared with the City Council. The Mayor
indicated that the Council had indicated an intent to have a
financial advisory committee that could help the Council on an
ongoing basis. The details of that committee have yet to be
finalized.
C. Springstead Study - Jim Willis provided an overview of the
Springstead Study relative to the impacts of future growth. He
noted particularly the parts of the report dealing with City
Capital needs for operations and upkeep operating costs and their
impacts. He noted also that the growth impacts relative to the
Wayzata School District had also been reviewed. He said that the
initial conclusion of the report was that taxes generated by new
development would cover costs of that development.
Bill Pritchard indicated that there was some pending legislation
that called for a study about the establishment of transportation
impact fees; he indicated that if that comes about there could be
a profound impact upon new development.
Fred Moore indicated that some municipalities have used storm
water utility assessments to help absorb some of the cost impacts
of new development.
II. DEVELOPMENT CLIMATE IN PLYMOUTH - Blair Tremere explained that Bob
Burger had asked that t is item be placed on the agenda. He said
that since last winter when the Council initiated the Springstead
Study, -there had been a number of inquiries as to whether the.City
was placing a moratorium on development. One business publication
CIM
WDA
even had the headline "City of Plymouth Puts the Brakes on Home
Builders." He stated that the City Council had not established a
moratorium but rather wanted to determine whether there was a
likelihood of a negative impact upon existing taxpayers as a
result of new development. They wanted that information before
ordering the sewer project that would make more land developable
in the west part of the City.
Bob Burger commented that he and several other builders were
concerned also about the political climate in the City. He stated
that recent events suggested that the City Council was not focused
particularly with respect to important long-term planning and
development related needs. He asked the Mayor what was being done
to improve the situation which seemed to be quite unstable.
Mayor Bergman commented that the majority of the City Council had
made certain decisions and that from his perspective the concerns
of the Development Council would be addressed with an election in
the fall. He stated that the majority of the Councilmembers
however had adopted an ordinance which would bypass that election
for another year.
Marlin Grant asked about the status of the Metropolitan Urban
Service Area (MUSA). Blair Tremere responded that the issue
involving the MUSA had been resolved with the Metropolitan
Council. The City still has an area in the northwest part of the
City that is outside of the MUSA but the area about to be opened
for development has always been inside the MUSA as far as the City
is concerned.
III. STATUS OF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENTS - Blair Tremere advised that
information had been submitted to the Metropolitan Council staff
in response to their concerns that the City was not adequately
linking the transportation planning with the Land Use Guide Plan
provisions. He stated that hopefully the information would meet
their needs so that the Land Use Guide Plan amendments approved by
the City Council in December, 1989 could finally be approved. He
stated that the Metropolitan Council is definitely concerned about
the impacts of development upon the Metropolitan System which for
Plymouth amounts to the arterial highways.
Charlie -Pfeffer related some of the experiences Minnetonka had
been having including the adoption some time ago of the I-394
corridor ordinance.
IV. OTHER BUSINESS - Marlin Grant asked Fred Moore about the status of the
street cleaning policy particularly with respect to the erosion
control enforcement.. Fred Moore explained what was intended both
for the spring and summer period. He expects that additional
personnel will be available to inspect sites and enforce the
policy.
Joe Ryan commented that his recent meeting with builders resulted
in a number of ideas for mitigating problems. He stated that the
builders are becoming more aware of all aspects of the erosion
--
control problem and inspection personnel have been striving to
educate them also. He said that a suggestion had been made for a
task force that could look at possible ways to improve the
communication between the builders and the City.
The Mayor indicated that soil erosion was a serious problem and
that he felt that the policy should be reviewed to perhaps extend
responsibility to homeowners who can eliminate or adversely revise
the various control measures that the developers and builders have
been required to install.
Bob Burger stated that overall earlier concerns`by the Development
Council had been addressed particularly with respect to the timing
of calls before the imposition of fines.

Director Blair Tremere;Community Development Coordinator Chuck
Dillerud; Assistant Building Official Don Munson; City Engineer
Dan Faulkner; Public Works Director Fred Moore; and Fire Inspector
Stan Scofield.
I. STATUS REPORT:
A. Springstead Study - Blair Tremere indicated that the City Council
had directed that the Springstead Study completed last spring
should be updated in ligiif of the tax laws passed by the
legislature. He stated that completion of the update is expected
within 30 days.
B. Erosion Control Polic Task Force - Dan Faulkner stated that the
Erosion Control Policy is being reviewed with an ad hoc committee
that stemmed from the meeting with builders earlier this year. He
stated that members of the committee include developers, builders
and City staff. The intent is to get broad input before
formulating any changes that would then go to the City Council.
He stated that the group hopes to also get homeowner input. He
stated there has been discussion about getting builders and
suppliers and subcontractors more involved in addition to the
initial developer.
There have been a number of questions and suggestions as to how to
involve the homeowners that also violate the Erosion Control
Policy. Also there is consideration of better enforcement which
might involve the issuance of "stop work orders" rather than only
denying inspections which is what the current policy calls for.
He stated that consideration is being given to adopting specific
performance standards that can be used in the enforcement of the
program since often a different person is involved each year.
Blair Tremere indicated that he has discussed with the City
Manager the possibility of having a sticker that could be left in..
the house at the -final inspection informing the homeowner of the
importance of the grading and erosion control for the property..
C. 1992 - 1996 Capital Improvement Program - Fred Moore explained
that the 1991 - 1995 Capital Improvement Program had been adopted
on August 5, 1991 by the City Council. He stated that petition
for improvements should be submitted to the City by October 1,
(the normal deadline is May 1, so that they can be included in the
process for reviewing the updated CIP.

D. Northwest Boulevard, Medina Road, Schmidt Lake Road - Fred Moore
provided an update as to the status of the various projects. He
indicated that another project involving Bass Lake Road should be
underway next spring; he sated that this is a County project and
a contract should be awarded this fall. He said the Bass Lake
Road upgrading would be a two-year project.
E. Community Library - Blair Tremere indicated that a quick -take
order from Judge Burke had not been issued but was expected soon;
this will facilitate the condemnation of the property as directed
by the City Council. Site planning has not begun although the
County had prepared some preliminary plans for_the corner of
Vicksburg Lane and Highway 55.
F. County Waste Transfer Station - Blair Tremere explained that the
City Council had deferred final action on this item until next
January; this basically was in response to the County staff
request for more time so that the entire waste stream processing
could be reviewed. He stated that recent information indicates
that the County may trim the size of the proposed facility in that
there may not be a need for another transfer station at least at
this location. No revised plans have.been received from Hennepin
County.
II./III. DEVELOPMENT CLIMATE IN PLYMOUTH/CITY COUNCIL RELATIONS - Bob Burger
inquired about the current rate of development and activity in the
City. Blair Tremere and Chuck Dillerud responded and indicated
the amount of applications and building permits that were being
issued. Activity especially in the residential area is still
quite high although it is not as high as the late 1980's. Bob
Burger inquired about the election and the specific issue. The
Mayor explained the results of the state law which dealt with
cities seeking to change the election year. He stated that a
referendum will be held first to determine if the ordinance passed
last year should stay in force or whether it should be repealed.
If the voters repeal the ordinance then there will be an election
this fall. If the voters support the ordinance then there will
not be an election until the fall of 1992.
Bob Burger stated that there remains a perception that Plymouth
has a very unstable political environment and builders take that
into account when they are determining where they should invest
their money and time. He stated that the City staff has done a
good job working with developers and builders and that it is clear
there can be negative pressures put on the City staff as a result
of the political instability at the City Council level. The Mayor
concurred but stressed that as far as he was concerned the Council
was very supportive of the staff particularly with respect to
development matters.
IV. POSSIBLE ZONING ORDINANCE.AMENDMENT
A. Exterior Lighting - Blair Tremere explained that the City Council
had directed that staff and the City Attorney develop standards
for -exterior lighting that would be applicable both to the private
CIM 3AN 3 `92
1A.Lk
and public sectors. He stated that research has been completed
and a draft has been prepared by the staff; it will now be
reviewed by the City Attorney before submittal to the City
Council. He said the standards would give the City basis for
pursuing complaints as a nuisance when lighting presents a
problem.
B. Screening of Trash Containers - Blair Tremere explained that the
City was enforcing the current ordinance standard which required
outside trash disposal containers to be screened from view within
approved enclosures. Recently, containers designated for source
separation were appearing on sites and were not screened. This
resulted in enforcement actions and feedback from property owners
who were not prepared to provide additional screening. The City
Council had been approached by one of the trash haulers, on behalf
of their clients, and the Council had indicated that a task force
should be established to review the current ordinance standards
and the prevailing requirements -of source separation and
recycling.
Paul Anderson stated that commercial buildings in particular
should be reviewed in that there were benefits to the community
and neighborhoods for having enclosures. Terry Forbord suggested
that standards could be developed that would apply to existing
buildings and sites as well as new developments; perhaps some
parking credit could be given to retrofitting sites with
appropriate enclosures. Time should be provided so that owners
could conform with the standards.
Bob Burger stated that containers used for source separation
should be displayed outside as evidence that a particular business
is supportive of the recycling.
Blair Tremere suggested that the Development Council keep in touch
with this item because the City Council at this point is seeking
interested local business representatives as well as trash haulers
to review the standards. The standards are aimed. -not so much at
developers as they are to property owners and haulers. Clearly
there are those who are on the Development Council who would
qualify as local businessmen and more information will be coming
out regarding the membership of that committee.
C. Planned Unit Development Standards - Blair Tremere and Chuck
Dillerud commented that the Planning Commission had been reviewing
the PUD standards for some time and was not interested in
"tinkering" with the standards but rather looking a comprehensive
review and possible updating. Input was being solicited from City
staff and eventually it would be solicited from other interested
parties including the Development Council.
Blair Tremere suggested that the Development Council may wish to
have its own committee review the PUD standards and develop
recommendations that could be eventually provided to the Planning
Commission. Marlin Grant agreed and Terry Forbord suggested that
he would appreciate the opportunity to meet with City staff and
discuss the direction of the Planning Commission.
CM JAN �'yG
s
Chuck Dillerud stated that he would let Terry Forbord know when
the Planning Commission is going to schedule further meetings
regarding the PUD standards.
V. OTHER BUSINESS - Blair Tremere introduced Stan Scofield and explained
that the fire inspection personnel have identified some aspects of
the City Code that should be amended if provisions of the Uniform
Fire Code have merit in the opinion of the Plymouth City Council.
These were generally discussed some months ago with certain
members of the Development Council but a specific recommendation
was not produced for the City Council. A key issue is the one
regarding access in single family developments which are now
exempt under the Plymouth City Code.
Stan Scofield presented his August 2, 1991 memorandum and
commented that he would like to work with committee of the
Development Council to explain the terms of the proposed changes
so that a recommendation could be developed and sent to the City
Council. Bob Burger and Marlin Grant indicated that they would
meet with staff and would identify other interested members
particularly those involved in the residential development
business.

The League will schedule meetings for city officials from.each of
Minnesota's eight congressional districts with members of congress

The League will also schedule meetings with both U.S. Senators from
Minnesota to discuss key federal issues. All city officials

critical housing, transportation, environmental and other needs.
Membership on NLC Policy & Steering Committees

REORDERING NATIONAL PRIORMES"` •�
& REDEFMG NAnONAL SECURrIY'
®oday we enter a time of rebuilding
our cities and to%ns and rebuilding
our nation to meet different challenges and
different times. Our cities must be the founda-
tion for an economic restructuring of America.
In our cities and towns, we are the center
of an economic revolution. The destiny we
construct will determine the nation's strength
to face new challenges from abroad.
The risks the current generation grew up
with have changed beyond recognition; the
hopes and opportunities we have as leaders in
the fields of health, education, infrastructure,
and the environment will be more critical to
America's security than any foreign challenge.
We have the opportunity to succeed; we bear
a greater chance of failure than perhaps any
generation this century.
The world as we knew it only one year ago
has changed beyond recognition. The foreign
military threats which shaped the last half cen-
tury are fundamentally altered. The threats to
our future will be shaped more by how we
address issues at home than abroad.
Our people, our communities, and our chil-
dren five in a world where American strength
and might will be tested by our ability to
remake ourselves and rededicate ourselves to
the future.
In 1992, US. national security interests must
be redefined. That redefutition must include
the development of national policies to
increase our economic strength and domestic
stability. It will be time to have a domestic pol-
icy.
oloicy. It %ill be time to come home, America.
In city after city, our citizens confront new
fears - fear of losing a job, fear of not having
access to health care for a sick child or sick
parent, fear of violent crime, fear of an educa-
tion system which no longer will prepare our
children.
While other nations are investing - in a part-
nership with their local governments - in edu-
cation, job training, access to health care, and
infrastructure, our federal government remains
locked in obsolete federal spending and bud-
get priorities that provide neither the vision,
no the flexibility to make our country com-
petitive in the global economy.
But tomorrow a mother or father in your
neighborhood might lose a job - a livelihood
when he or she is laid off as the business relo-
cates to a city in Mexico, in China, in
Germany, or in Poland. The company will say
the foreign city has better transportation facili-
ties, or a better educated work force, or less
crime, or better job and skills training. Tbose,
after all, are the new measures of strength and
world domination.
But what does it mean to a city officiaL� Lost
wages. Lost property taxes. Lost hope. More
911 calls.
Last year, our federal government reached
out to help country after country around the
world to meet emergencies, disasters, and
trade needs. At home, the federal government
reached in with mandates and preemptions.
1992 is an election year. It will be a time to
come to the nation's capital and send a mes-
sage - we can no longer afford the old way;
we have to reshape and rebuild a new way
starting from the city up.
The old ways of Washington passing man-
dates and leaving it to you to raise the local
taxes and fees must stop. The unrelenting fed-
eral disinvestment in domestic national security
must stop. The ingenuity, the excitement, the
training and skills, the unmatched investment
in technology, materials, and human beings
that have trade the U.S. military unmatched in
history must be redirected into rebuilding our
communities.
But that will only happen if the leaders of
America's communities make it happen.
It is hard enough to deal with all the prob-
lems of local constituents, to balance local
budgets, and to meet local needs. Washington
seems ever so far away.
But what Washington does affects the bot-
tom line of your budget. it very directly affects
the taxes you have to support. There is no
local taxpayer immune from the actions of the
President, Congress, and the Supreme Court.
So next year the voters - your voters - will
have an opportunity that comes only once
every four years: to send a message.
And you are a messenger. They elected you
to represent them - to bring that message
directly to die nation's capital.
So come. let those who you helped elect
and sent to Washington know what the con-
certs of the citizens you represent are. Let
them know what the priorities in 1992 for your
city and town are. Let them tell you - specifi-
cally - how they intend to respond, so that you
can report back directly to your taxpayers.
The Congressional Cities Conference in
Washington, D.C. from March 7-10 is about
leadership, accountability, and responsibility
for reshaping the future.
It is about making a difference.
It is about joining with your colleagues
from cities and towns across the nation to
send a united message to Washington about
redefining national security.
It is about standing up for and reporting
back to your community about the priorities of
the federal government and how those pnon-
ties will translate in your community.
Unless you conte, your Constituents will not
be represented, and we will not be one voice.
THE BUDGET, TAXES,
& THE DEFICIT
1992 promises to be a taxing year. The White
House and Congress will debate whose taxes
to cut. Tihey will debate the 1990 budget
agreement. They will debate whether to cut
defense spending in the wake of the breakup
of the Soviet military threat. And the federal
deficit will be far greater than for any year in
American history.
In 1992 the president and Congress will
debate the cap on all domestic discretionary
spending. That cap, which pits all city and
town programs against each other in a shark
tank, provides no flexibility to increase invest-
ment in America. They will debate whether to
change the budget agreement to allow savings
from reduced defense spending to be invested
in domestic economic security or not.
U they reject any changes and increased
investment, they will have to decide how to
allocate resources within the shark tank And
you will have to deal with the consequences
for your community and taxpayers.
The president will set the pace. He %ill pro-
pose his budget to Congress in late January.
That budget will show the nation what the
president's priorities are for the nation's cities
and towns - exactly what resources he will
propose to pay for federal mandates, to help
fight drugs and crime, to meet community and
economic development priorities. to provide
access to health care.
7be Congressional Cities Conference will
come at a perfect time in the federal budget
process. It will come just as Congress is decid-
ing how to respond and whether to set its
own priorities.
What Congress decides will affect every citi-
zen and taxpayer in your city or town. It will
affect water and sewer fees. local taxes, and
local services. It will affect your city's ability to
issue bonds.
This conference will be your very best
chance to have an impact on this crucial, pri-
ority setting Pte• It will offer your burst
chance to tell your Congressman or your
Senator what is happening in your community
and how the president's proposed budget
could help or hurt. And it will allow you to go
home armed with key Wormation critical to
adopting your own municipal budget
The conference will bring together some of
the key leaders from the administration, House
and Senate to tell you what they intend to
happen, what it might mean to your Communi-
ty, and how you might help. And they will
come to hear back from you. What do you
thirdC
In preparation for one of the most important
issues of the 1992 Presidential election cam-
paign and action in Congress on access to
affordable health care reform, the Conference
will feature a special legislative workshop of
key federal and Congressional leaders to cis--
cuss health care reform and what such reform
would mean to cities and towns.
With millions of city and town residents
denied access to health care, the issue is of ris-
ing concern to city leaders. But cities and
towns are concemed from the other side too -
what do these potential reforms mean to cities
as employers? Will new legislation mean more
mandates? How will the feds pay for these
changes? What will they mean?
HOUSING &
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
The nation's housing and community develop-
ment laws expire next September. As Congress
considers whether and how to reauthorize the
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
and HOME state and local housing block grant
programs, there will be significant challenges.
A report issued through the U.S. Depart-
ment of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD) charges that cities and towns are large-
ly responsible for the housing crisis in
America: claiming that local zoning and land
use regulations have added more than 30 per-
cent to the cost of housing in communities.
Efforts will be made in the administration and
Congress to preempt or superegulate local
brtd use planning and zoning authority.
Others will criticize the CDBG program, claim-
ing it gives local elected officials too much
Flexibility. And the administration and others
will seek major changes in the HOME pro-
gram, including imposing stiff matching
requirements.
The conference will host a workshop at
which leaders in the House, Senate and HUD
will tell you what they plan for the future of
these programs and what these changes might
mean to you and your community.
THE ENVIRONMENT,
MANDATES & CITIES
Next year Congress will focus on clean water
and solid waste disposal - two issues of enor-
mous consequences to cities and towns. Will
Congress rewrite the stormwater requirements
to make them understandable and affordable?
Will the administration and Congress get out of
the business of providing funding for munici-
pal wastewater treatment, but stay in the busi-
ness of federal mandates and enforcemeru?
Will Congress help cities and towns deal with
the growing crisis of municipal solid waste dis-
posal - or simply impose more unworkable,
unfunded federal mandates?
The conference will provide information to
you from the key environmental players in the
administration and Congress to give you an
idea what the federal government will do, how
it will do it, and to whom it will do it Be
there. Make sure you understand what they
intend to do and what it would mean to you.
And make an they understand what you
think about their plans.
PUBLIC ACCESS
TO LOCAL DATABASE
Federal and state proposals bringing the
Freedom of Information Act into the computer
age may threaten cities' Control over local
databases. Issues such as privacy, equity of
access, and fees for information services
should be considered by all cities, but espe-
cially those who are attempting to offer the
convenience and power of computer access
directly to the public.
How can locals protect themselves from
state and federal preemptive action? How can
cities protect personal privacy? What steps can
be taken to ensure freedom of information and
equity access? Your participation and input is
needed as the federal government begins to
take up these issues.

tough times. It will be necessary to do more with less and work smarter rather
than harder, with a focus on quality, innovation and excellence. NLC's Leadership
Training Institute is committed to'helping elected officials prepare for that future now!
Four one -day and four one-half day LEADERSHIP TRAINING seminars will be
offered by the Institute. Led by professional trainers with solid expertise in their field,

lence in local government. The seminar will be

Upward spiraling costs, citizen demand for mainte-
nance of service levels, public resistance to

services will be the focus of this seminar. Revalu-
ating service needs, setting and sticking to priori-
ties, externalizing costs, reorganizing to reduce
costs, and measuring and managing toward more
employee productivity are among the topics to
be addressed. The seminar will be conducted
by an experienced and recognized consultant to
local government.

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
1992-1996
Prepared by:

CITY OF PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA
1992-1996 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The effective and efficient management of municipal finances is a complex and challenging
Issue for' all appointed and elected officials. City government has an obligation to provide for
the health, safety and welfare of its citizens in a cost effective manner. To accomplish this
objective, the need to plan over time for anticipated and necessary capital expenditures
becomes increasingly critical. As public resources become more scarce and citizens express
concerns about tax burdens, it Is necessary for the City to establish priorities compatible with
City goals. In the face of such realities, the City of Plymouth has developed the 1992-96
Capital Improvement Program. This Capital Improvement Program is one of the means used
to implement the total City financial philosphy which include the operating budget, planning
tools such as the Tischler Report, possible debt issues and other financial resources that may
be available.
The objectives established for the 1992-96 Capital Improvement Program are summarized as
follows:
1. To determine and represent the improvement needs of the City of Plymouth in the
following areas:
a. Streets
b. Sanitary Sewer
c. Water
d. Drainage
e. Parks
f. Public Buildings
2. To identify and evaluate the funding source which will be allocated to the payment of
the planned capital improvements.
3. To provide a framework and tool for the preparation of annual updates or revisions
that may be necessary so changes in the current or projected status of planned
expenditures or funding sources can be evaluated.
4. To provide the. means to evaluate future operating costs of planned improvements
as well as regularly monitor and evaluate the status of individual funds which
contribute to financing the Capital Improvement Program.
5. To represent the various capital improvement needs and funding sources of the City
of Plymouth in a single concise document for use by elected officials, appointed staff
and commissions, and the citizens of Plymouth.
For each year of the Capital Improvement Program a brief project description and
corresponding estimated cost have been provided. Revenue sources are identified by
expenditure to indicate the proposed method of financing. Cashflow evaluations have been
completed for the Plymouth tax increment districts, the Infrastructure and PIR Funds, and the
Park Dedication Funds to ensure that sufficient funds are available to finance the anticipated
expenditures. The Summary of Project Costs and Funding Summary exhibit indicates that
sufficient funds will be available to finance the 1992-96 Capital Improvement Program.

CITY OF PLYMOUTH
3400 PLYMOUTH BOULEVARD, PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA 55447
DATE: December'23, 1991
TO: Lt. Dennis Paulson - Acting Chief of Police
FROM: Nia Wronski - Youth Service Officer
SUBJECT: YMCA DETACHED WORKER PROGRAM
The Detached Workers goal is delinquency prevention. Their
outreach program works with youth ages 12-18. They provide one-
to-one counseling and recreational activities for youth who are
at risk due to problems they are experiencing with school,
family, peers or law enforcement.
Currently the Northwest YMCA employs four detached workers. None
are assigned to work specifically in Plymouth, but they do spend
time at Armstrong High School, where they will reach out to youth
at risk and also conduct support groups for students. I have
also referred families -to the Northwest YMCA Detached Worker
Program when parents come to me seeking support services and
delinquency prevention type of activities for their kids. -
I feel that it is a very valuable program which the City should
continue to support. Further information about the program can
be obtained by contacting Mike Melstad with the Northwest YMCA at
535-4800.

TO: James G. Willis, ,pity Manager
FROM: Fred G. Moore;tDirector of Public Works
SUBJECT: NORTHWEST BOULEVARD/SCHMIDT LAKE ROAD
DNR PERMIT
CITY PROJECT NO. 011
Attached is a copy of the cover letter and the permit received from DNR
for encroachment into public wetlands - for the Northwest
Boulevard/ Schmidt Lake Road project. After reviewing the permit I do
not believe it contains anything new that we have not previously
discussed with DNR or have been made aware of in their draft decision.
Since this project will be constructed in at least three phases, the DNR
permit does not expire until November 30, 1996.
After we received the decision from DNR on the alignment, Dan Faulkner
and I met with the consulting engineer, Strgar-Roscoe-Fausch, Inc., to
discuss the preparation of the final plans and specifications for the
first phase of the project.' The first phase of the project will
construct Northwest Boulevard from 45th Avenue northerly to Schmidt Lake
Road; also Schmidt' Lake Road will be constructed from Northwest
Boulevard easterly to Pineview Lane. This project'has previously been
authorized by the City Council. At our meeting we established a
schedule which will have the plans completed for the first phase of the
project by April 15, 1992. The necessary right of way to construct the
improvements will be identified by January 31, 1992.
Please let me know if there are any questions on the DNR permit or the
final preparation of the plans and specifications for the first phase of
the improvement.

FILE NO.
RE: PERMIT #91-6185, NORTHWEST BOULEVARD AND SCHMIDT'LAKE ROAD,
WETLANDS 27-590W, 27-591W AND 27-593W (CURTIS LAKE), CITY OF
PLYMOUTH, HENNEPIN COUNTY
Dear Mr. Moore:
Our review of your permit application and supporting materials
indicates that the criteria of Minnesota Rules, part 6115.0190,
subpart 3, item'F are met (relating to the lack of other feasible
and practical alternatives with less environmental impacts and that
the public need rules out the no -build alternative). Therefore, a
waiver of the filling prohibition for a public roadway is granted
and the permit for your project is enclosed.
Permit #91-6185 authorizes placement of.fill for a public roadway
in wetlands 27-59OW and 27-591W and construction of a bridge over
wetland 27-590W. The mitigation which was agreed upon during the
permit review process involves: the creation of approximately 3.1
acres of wetland in upland area adjacent to wetland 27-591W;
creation/ improvement of wetland and upland habitat on an abandoned
segment of West Medicine Lake Road adjacent to wetland 27-593W
(Curtis Lake); and legal preservation of a portion of the wooded
upland area east of 27-59OW and south of 27-589W.
Because the proposal is still in preliminary design stage, the DNR
permit does not specify details of the work authorized. Special
provisions 19 to 21 of this permit require submittal of detailed
construction and mitigation plans, in appropriate phases, for DNR
approval. Special provision #22 requires appropriate as -built
surveys and photographs of the completed mitigation and that
portion of the road construction which affects DNR wetlands. The
expiration date of the permit is November 30, 1996.

NORTHWEST BOULEVARD/SCHMIDT LAKE ROAD
CITY OF PLYMOUTH
HENNEPIN COUNTY
The City of Plymouth's plans for Northwest Boulevard/Schmidt Lake
Road (received with permit application on April 4, 1991) are
modified as follows:
DESIGN FEATURES
1. The bridge over the Soo Line railroad and wetland 27-59OW must
be at least doubled in -length in order to minimize filling in
the core portion of the wetland/upland complex; provide an
adequate corridor for wildlife movement and; protect the
continuity of the existing wetland/upland ecosystem.
2. The remainder of the route would remain in the same location.
3. The stormwater treatment ponds would remain the same as
proposed in the city's original permit application.
4. Roadway width would be reduced to the maximum extent to
minimize wetland encroachment. To accomplish this, the design
and placement of the proposed trail sections and side slopes
would be evaluated.
MITIGATION FEATURES
1. The mitigation plan proposed -by the city in the original
permit application would be left unchanged. -
2. The portion of existing West Medicine Lake Road immediately
adjacent to Curtis Lake (27-593W) would be included in a
mitigation plan designed by a qualified biologist considering
the efficacy of additional upland vegetation, an improved
hydraulic connection, slope modifications, etc. The emphasis
is to improve the overall ecosystem diversity.
3. A portion of the wooded area to the east of wetland 27-59OW
and south of wetland 27-589W would be preserved by appropriate
legal methods (fee ownership, conservation easement, deed
restriction, etc.) to provide continuity of the ecosystem.

DESCRIPTION AND PURPOSE
A flotation silt curtain is a silt barrier for use within a
lake or pond. The flotation silt curtain consists of a
filter fabric curtain weighted at the bottom and
attached to a flotation device at the top. This
structure is used to isolate an active construction area
within a lake or pond to prevent silt -laden water
from migrating out of the construction zone.
EFFECTIVENESS
Flotation silt curtains are effective for limiting the
migration of suspended sediment within a lake or
pond. This practice will not reduce the amount of
disturbance from work performed in water, but it
will minimize the area that is affected.
PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS
In some cases, it may not be practical or possible to
avoid construction within a lake. A flotation silt
curtain can be used to isolate the water quality
effects from this type of work. The silt curtain
should be located so that the amount of water
included in the construction zone is minimized.
DESIGN RECOmAVNDATIONS
1 The cuitain should be constructed of a nylon
fabric with a minimum tensile strength of
300 pounds per inch of fabric.
2. The top of the curtain should have a flotation
carrier consisting of a floating plastic tube
(6 -inch minimum diameter) filled with
marine quality polyethylene foam. The
flotation carrier should also have a 5/16"
diameter coated steel cable in it to carry
loads imposed upon the curtain.
3 The bottom edge should be weighted by
cable or chain with a minimum weight of 1.1
pounds per foot. One 24 -pound anchor
should also be used per 100 feet of curtain.
4. Where the curtain is made up of sections, the
sections should be joined so that silt cannot
permeate through the connection.

The silt curtain should be maintained until the
construction area is stabilized and turbidity is
reduced to acceptable levels.

SUBJECT: CORRECTIONS IN LAKE CAMELOT ESTATES ADDITION
CITY PROJECT NO. 105
Dear Kim:
You had requested an accounting of the City expenditures to correct deficiencies
in Lake Camelot Estates this past year. You were requesting this information in
order that you could report to your homeowner's association.
When the developer did not perform the remaining work in Lake Camelot Estates
Addition, the City drew on the letter of credit in the amount of $79,673. We
established an escrow account to perform the work which had previously been
outlined to the developer. During this past construction season all of the
remaining work was completed.
The following is a summary of expenditures which will be changed to the escrow
account for work performed by other than City employees:
Asphalt for street repair (Commercial Asphalt Co.)
Consulting Engineering
(Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik and Assoc., Inc.)
Concrete Curb Raising (Concrete Raising, Inc.)
Grading, Sodding, Seeding, Drainage West Area
(Hildahl Const.)

These expenditures do not include any charges for time spent by City employees on
the project. Also, as you are aware, the Street Division did the necessary
street repair work and these costs do not include any City equipment rental
charges. City employees involved on this project were in the Engineering
Division and Street Division.
We will not have a complete accounting of City employee time and cost until after
the end of the year. The employee time is not automatically charged to a project
such as this since it is budgeted within each division. Once we have recapped
all of the City employee time and usage of City equipment in completing the
repair work, I believe it will exceed the remaining $11,274 in the escrow account
from the letter of credit. There will be no funds to return to the developer.
If there are any questions, please contact me.
Sincerely,
Fred G. Moore, P.E.

SUBJECT: RECYCLING/TRASH CONTAINER SCREENING
Dear John:
I3 =ka C.�.
The report of your committee was presented to the City Council at its meeting
of December 16, 1991. The City Council reviewed the committee findings and
took official action accepting the report and directing execution of the
recommendations found in the report.
The City Council also recognized the efforts of the committee members and
directed preparation of a letter to you committee members thanking you for
your efforts on behalf of the City of Plymouth.
This letter then is partly in response to the City Council's action and also
to express to you my personal gratitude for your efforts and input regarding
what became a very complex issue. I expect to prepare Zoning Ordinance
amendment drafts responsive to your recommendations for presentation to the
Planning Commission as a Public Hearing sometime in February. I will advise
you of that hearing date.
It has been customary in Plymouth to continue informing members of strategic
committees appointed by the City Council of events related to their
recommendations following completion of the committee activity. It is my
intention to continue with this tradition and keep you advised of future
activities regarding changes in the City Codes and Ordinances regarding the
screening of trash and recycling containers. While you are not required to
you are certainly most welcome to attend any future Public Hearings of the
Planning Commission concerning this subject. I am certain the Planning
Commission would val.ue your comments on the subject.
Sincerely,

Homeowners Association and
communicate some observations
affected Kingswood residents.
First, the McCrossan employees'were extremely courteous in their
contact with the residents and the officers of the Association. They
kept us advised of the scheduled work and were very professional in
their work. The SEH consultants were on the job daily. The project
was handled with a minumum disruption, though the dust could have
been reduced by more frequent sprinkling.
Secondly, some very disturbing things turned up as the project
progressed. As you are aware, this is a PUD, developed by the Centurion
Company. Approved by the City of Plymouth and I must presume subject
to regular inspections during.the installation of the storm sewers
and the construction of the homes.
The 3rd Avenue segment of the project was only to be a milling
and overlay of the existing road, but it ended up being excavated -
in order to correct a major flaw in the installation of the original
storm sewer. Because of insufficiant stone under the line it had
settled and cracked. The pipes were litterly laying on the clay
subsoil.
At the intersection of Holly Lane and Inland Lane Cul de Sac
the storm sewer lines had been laid backwards and many segments were
missing the seal rings, allowing the pipes to become filled with silt.
Some years ago our association considered initiating a law suit
against Centurion because of faulty roof shingle quality and slipshod,
work. Centurion stonewalled us at every turn, and we finally abandoned,
the idea after expending a considerable sum on legal fees.
The shingle installation did not meet the City building code,
the shingles were substandard. Our concern is that the City is now
issuing building permits, which also entail the installation of streets
and sewers, so we wonder whether our inspection system is geared to
handle this greatly increased workload. Is the City able to monitor
the builders adherence to rules -and regulations, that have been es-
tablished to protect future homeowners?

SUBJECT: 1991 STREET RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT
CITY PROJECT NO. 102
Dear Mr. Peterson:
Thank you for your observations on the 1991 Street Reconstruction Program. We
have received many good comments about C.S.. McCrossan employees and the
courteous approach that they took on this project.
As you are aware through the discussions that we had at different phases of
the project, we were trying to correct problems that have occurred over the
years or which may not have been constructed to our current standards. We do
feel that the City now has a much better inspection system for new
construction, whether it be buildings or our infrastructure system. The City
has also implemented a financial guarantee system to ensure projects are
completed in total compliance with the City's standards.
Once again, thank you for your comments concerning this project and the City's
management.
