ITEM 7-A PUBLIC HEARING AND PRELIMINARY APPROVAL OF
INDUSTRIAL BONDS FOR TURCK, INC.
Community Development Director Hurlburt stated that in 1986, TURCK, Inc., a
manufacturer of proximity sensors and components that are used in automotive
manufacturing processes, constructed its current facility in Plymouth at 3000
Campus Drive with $2.5 million in industrial revenue bonds issued by the City. In
1988, $2.4 million of these bonds were refunded by the City. In 1994, TURCK's
operations had expanded into leased facilities for 50 employees in Golden Valley.
She stated that in anticipation of additional expansion, TURCK has signed a letter
of intent with Hoyt Development for approximately 10 acres in the Plymouth
Technology Park, northwest of the intersection of I-494 and Schmidt Lake Road,
to construct a 60,000 to 70,000 square foot manufacturing facility as phase one of
an anticipated 100,000 square foot building. This facility would be used to
consolidate and expand the manufacturing operations currently located in the
existing Plymouth and Golden Valley facilities. Over a three year period, it is
anticipated that an additional 100 employees would be hired for the proposed
facility plus 50 additional employees for TURCK's administrative offices and a
new research and development operation at its 3000 Campus Drive facility.
Regular Council Meeting

Community Development Director Hurlburt stated that TURCK has made
application to the City for the issuance 'of up to $5.5 million in tax increment
industrial revenue bonds to finance construction of the new facility. As with other
revenue bond issuances of the City, there would be no financial impact or liability
for the City. The bonds would include a letter of credit guaranteeing repayment as
a credit enhancement. In addition to the application fee of $1,000 and bond fees
paid to the city, all costs of the bond issue are paid by the applicant. At the closing
of the bonds, the City would receive 1/8 of a percent administrative fee, up to
6,875, to cover City administrative costs. A maximum of $6,875 would be paid
annually thereafter for the life of the bonds to the City's HRA to support
affordable housing. She stated that because of the current interest in the
interrelation between employment growth and affordable housing, staff feels it is
appropriate to dedicate such a fee to be used by the HRA in support of affordable
housing. Such housing is necessary to provide a conveniently located labor force
for Plymouth businesses. She stated that representatives of TURCK and the City's
bond counsel are present to answer questions.
Councilmember Granath asked the bond counsel to address the status of this
preliminary approval.
Tracy Kochendorfer, Best and Flanagan, stated that this preliminary approval is
necessary in order to make application to the Department of Trade. The resolution
states that the approval is not binding or final, and the City is not bound in any
way. She stated that the state allocation has not been granted, so it could be quit
sometime before the project proceeds.
Mayor Tierney opened a public hearing on the issuance of industrial revenue bonds
for TURCK, Inc.
William Christiansen, representing TURCK, Inc., was present to answer questions.
No one else appeared, and the hearing was closed at 7:15 p.m.
MOTION was made by Councilmember Black, seconded by Councilmember
Granath, to adopt RESOLUTION 96-100 GIVING PRELIMINARY
APPROVAL TO A PROJECT ON BEHALF OF TURCK, INC., AND ITS
FINANCING UNDER THE MINNESOTA MUNICIPAL INDUSTRIAL
DEVELOPMENT ACT; AUTHORIZING SUBMISSION OF A PROPOSAL
TO THE MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF TRADE AND ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT FOR APPROVAL; AND AUTHORIZING THE
PREPARATION OF NECESSARY DOCUMENTS. Motion carried, seven
ayes.

PTEM 8-A (6-J) MPUD FINAL PLAN IN PLYMOUTH PONDS BUSINESS
PARK (95134)
Community Development Director Hurlburt presented the staff report on the
proposed final plan for two industrial buildings at Plymouth Ponds Business Park.
She stated that in May of 1995, the City Council approved the MPUD preliminary
plan to allow four buildings on this 31.9 acre industrial development site. In June
of 1995, the City Council approved the MPUD final plan for the first building
consisting of 76,800 square feet. The applicant is now requesting final plan
approval to allow construction of two additional buildings. She stated that the two
buildings are consistent with all requirements in the preliminary plan.
She stated that on January 24, 1996, the Planning Commission voted 4-0 to
recommend approval of the MPUD final plan. The concerns raised at the public
hearing included whether the right-inhight-out access would be constructed to
accommodate truck traffic and why the trail and bus stops were not installed in
1995 as proposed. She stated that the applicant responded that the right-in/right-
out access from County Road 24 would be constructed to accommodate truck
traffic to all the buildings in this development. Regarding the trail and bus stop,
staff responded that the initial resolution included a condition stipulating that the
applicant submit plans and specifications for a trail and bus stop by June 30, 1995,
for City approval. The applicant met this requirement. The trail and bus stop is
included under a City contract that was scheduled to be completed last fall. Due
to the early winter, the contractor was not able to complete the project. Staff
indicated that the trail will be completed in 1996.
Gregory Katchmark, 3475 Holly Lane North, presented written comments relating
to the request. He stated that his primary concern with the site is the safety of
citizens and how the development will impact the adjacent neighborhood. He
stated that staff assured him in a letter last summer that the trail would be installed
before the certificate of occupancy was issued for the initial building. However,
this was not done. He also expressed concerns relating to installation of the bus
stop.
Community Development Director Hurlburt stated that the resolution adopted by
the City Council approving the preliminary plan required the developer to
complete plans and specifications for the trail. This trail segment was then
combined with other trail construction approved in the May referendum. In July,
1995, staff felt confident that the trail would be done before the building was
occupied.
Mr. Katchmark also requested that the Council consider installation of a stop sign
on Holly Lane at Medina Road. The Council discussed whether to authorize stop
sign installation immediately, or to place the item on the next agenda for
Regular Council Meeting

consideration. Councilmember Anderson stated that the safety of residents in the
area is impacted, and the Council should act immediately.
MOTION was made by Councilmember Anderson, seconded by Councilmember
Wold, to adopt RESOLUTION 96-101 INSTALLATION OF STOP SIGNS
AT HOLLY LANE IN THE PLYMOUTH PONDS BUSINESS PARK.
Motion carried, seven ayes.
Public Works Director Moore further explained the status of the trail construction.
He explained that the developer was only required to construct the trail portion
from Jewel Lane to Holly Lane, and the City Council awarded the contract for the
remainder of the trail work in October. He said that the contractor completed
work on five of the seven segments; however, work was not completed on Medina
Road. He noted that street lights and power poles had to be moved in order to do
the trail work.
Councilmember Preus asked when the school bus stop would be completed.
Director Hurlburt stated that the bus stop would be constructed as a wider pad
area abutting the trail and would be completed at the time of trail construction.
Brad Moen, 625 Navajo Road, represented the developer. He explained the delay
in trail construction, and noted that the primary problem was that the utility
company did not get the street lights and power poles moved until early winter.
He stated that phone lines and sprinkler heads have also been moved and the
ground is prepared for trail installation. He requested that street signage be
installed.
MOTION was made by Councilmember Anderson, seconded by Councilmember
Black, to adopt RESOLUTION 96-102 APPROVING MPUD FINAL PLAN
FOR PLYMOUTH PONDS DEVELOPMENT L.L.C. (MOEN LEUER
CONSTRUCTION) FOR TWO LOTS LOCATED AT THE NORTHWEST

ITEM 8-C (6-W) AWARD CONTRACT FOR MEDICINE LAKE OUTLET
STRUCTURE, PROJECT 940
Councilmember Lymangood stated that the construction of the Medicine Lake
outlet structure will require temporary closure of the bridge. He suggested that
this be communicated to the contractor, South Shore Drive residents, and the City
of Medicine Lake. Public Works Director Moore stated that advance signage at
the bridge closure will be required in the contract documents, and a letter will be
sent to the City of Medicine Lake. Public Safety Director Gerdes said that Public
Safety personnel will work with the Engineering staff so that emergency vehicles
will know the proper entry route to the area at all times.
MOTION was made by Councilmember Lymangood, seconded by Councilmember
Granath, to adopt RESOLUTION 96-103 AWARDING BID, MEDICINE
