FOR YOUR INFORMATION.....
1. MUNICIPAL LEGISLATIVE COMMISSION -- The Board of Directors of the
Municipal Legislative Commission (MLC) met Thursday afternoon in
Bloomington. At that meeting the Board took action to retain
Messerli and Kramer for its lobbying representation through the 1987
legislative session. This action was taken unanimously by the Board
members present. At the same meeting, the Board approved the 1987
budget which will reduce the cost to each municipality. In 1985,
member cities paid 35¢ per capita with a maximum of $14,000. In
1986 this sum was reduced to 30� per capita with a $12,000 maximum.
For 1987 the Board has adopted a budget providing for 20¢ per
capital with a maximum of $10,000. The total estimated budget for
1987 is $132,000.
2. SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES REQUEST FOR IN-HOME COUNSELING/CASE
MANAGEMENT SERVICES FOR ELDERLY -- I received a letter from Mr.
Benjamin F. Withhart, Executive Director, Senior Community Services,
requesting that the Council consider $940 to assist in funding their
counseling/case management services for elderly Plymouth residents.
Councilmembers have received a similar letter from Mr. Withhart
which is provided to you in this packet under separate cover.
3. DEVELOPMENT SIGN -- A development announcement sign has been
installed for the request of Paul Suomala for a preliminary plat at
14332 - 21st Avenue. The Planning Commission will be considering
this application at its August 13 meeting. Mr. Suomala's appli-
cation proposes to divide the parcel to create three lots for single
family detached residential units. The property is already zoned
R -1A (low density single family residential) District. Therefore,
there is not a rezoning request associated with this proposed plat.
One lot is being created for the retention of the residence on this
property (14332- 21st Avenue No.). While the house and this
property is addressed off of 21st Avenue North, the northern
boundary of this property abuts 6th Avenue North which is where the
proposed two additional lots would be accessed.
4. MINUTES -- The following minutes are attached:
a. Planning Commission, duly 23, 1986 (I -4a)

-MINUTES
MOTION by Commissioner Pauba, seconded by Commissioner
Plufka to approve the duly 1, 1986 Minutes as submitted.
VOTE. 5 Ayes. MOTION carried.
PUBLIC HEARINGS
Chairman Steigerwald introduced the application by Robert
Middlemist and requested an overview of the duly 11, 1986
Planning Staff Report by Coordinator McConn.
Robert Middlemist, 4140 Ximines Lane, stated he picked up a
copy of the staff report and agrees with most of the items.
He explained the property configuration was taken into
consideration when designing the plat layout. He stated
that Condition No. 3 of the draft recommendations asks for a
30 -ft. trail outlot between Lots 3 and 4; he has no problem
with this, but can't understand the location of the trail,
or the need for the trail. It was his opinion there may be
problems with people walking through private property to use
the park, and with a paved area they will take advantage of
the easy access. Cars may also tend to use Arrowood Lane
for parking and cause problems. He disagrees with the re-
quirement to pave the trail, but leaves this to the Commis-
sion's discretion. Removing the Tepley's driveway causes
big problems. The Tepley's home was built in 1960; removing
the drive and turning it will change the address; it will be
an expensive undertaking for the Tepley's who are also
concerned about the loss of their access. He noted there
are eight existing drives onto Zachary Lane; this drive has
no visibility problems and is not close to any other access.

Planning Commission Minutes
July 23, 1986
The recommendation in Conditional No. 12, to plat Lot 6 as
an outlot, does not make good sense. Mr. and Mrs. Tepley do
not want Lot 6 split now, they want sewer and water services
provided for the ability to divide this property in the
future, when they decide to move from their home. This
parcel will conform to Ordinance requirements; it his
opinion they should not have the burden of going through the
platting process to divide Lot 6, a Lot Division should be
sufficient. He does not understand what would need to be
filed in response to Condition No. 13, unless they are
forced to plat this land in the future. He commented on the
Variances requested for Lots 4 and 5.
Chairman Steigerwald inquired about the problem of platting
Lot 6 as an outlot. Mr. Middlemist stated it is costly and
time consuming to submit the application and attend all the
meetings; he wants to simplify the process for the Tepleys.
Commissioner Plufka inquired what the simpler procedure
would be, Lot Division, or platting? Coordinator McConn
explained that the platting procedure for the outlot could
go directly to the City Council for final action; she
explained the lot division by metes and bounds description
and the applicable fees. Commissioner Plufka stated there
is an implication that platting is a more difficult
process. Coordinator McConn stated the platting process
could be more expensive because of the required engineerin;,
and survey information.
Chairman Steigerwald opened the Public Hearing.
Steve Becker, 4710 Balsam Lane, stated he appreciates having
the opportunity to speak to the Commission. He represents a
large number of residents in Deerwood Meadows and Deerwood
Estates who oppose this project without a public access to
Zachary Lane. Their concern is the increase of traffic on
48th Avenue North to Zachary Lane. There seems to be an
assumption that the planning for traffic circulation around
Deerwood Estates would balance the traffic patterns, how-
ever, the traffic is going east to Zachary Lane. The resi-
dents met and created a petition with 93 signatures. He
read the petition which addresses the safety factor; and,
that the proposal is inadequate because of the traffic
circulation. The residents urge the Commission to deny
approval for this development and respond to their concerns.
Dave Berg, 4650 Arrowood Lane, stated he had comments to
make on the trail but is also concerned about a street
outlet.

Planning Commission Minutes
July 23, 1986
When he bought his property, the City did not anticipate
another road to Zachary Lane; he doesn't want two busy
streets at the front and back of his property. He is con-
cerned about the access to the park in that every child in
the neighborhood should have safe and nearby access. The
residents should be able to pass through this development to
get to the park.
Engineer Goldberg explained that 48th Avenue North is a
minor collector not unlike 38th and 39th Avenues North, east
of Zachary Lane. The Thoroughfare Guide Plan contemplates
continuous streets from one major collector to another. He
agrees that short-cuts should be discouraged, but there must
still be connection points. The Guide Plan does not contem-
plate another access to Zachary Lane and the City does not
feel it is warranted.
Steve Becker stated he came home at 5:30 P.M., observed the
traffic, and counted one car every 3 seconds from 5:30 to
approximately 5:45 P.M. There are still a number of vacant
lots and if Evergreen Lane is extended in the future, more
people will drive through, worsening the situation. He
noted the residents of the Schmidt Lake area use 48th Avenue
North.
Chairman Steigerwald reiterated that 48th Avenue North is .:
minor collector and intended to carry the east/west traf-
fic. Mr. Becker reiterated, they want the access to Zachary
Lane as stated.
Michael Dean, 4675 Balsam Lane, noted there were very few
homes in Deerwood Estates when he moved in. Another road
to Zachary Lane would affect his home, however, he does sup-
port this because of the concerns discussed by the resi-
dents. He stated the increased traffic congestion is a very
dangerous situation. It is unfortunate we are only talking
about it now; this should have been taken care of much
earlier. It is bad planning not to have the road from this
development to Zachary Lane.
Mary Meyers, 11515 47th Avenue North, stated she is the Vice
President for the Larch Lane Homeowner's Association. There
is a 150 resident membership. They have reviewed the report
and the plat and do not want approval granted without a road
to Zachary Lane. She stated it is a safety concern, and
there are quite a few roads from the Deerwood Estates plat.

Planning Commission Minutes
July 23, 1986
Diane Love, 4590 Balsam Lane, stated she was approached to
sign the petition but disagrees that a road is needed to
Zachary Lane from this development. Her home is on the
corner of Cottonwood and Balsam Lanes; she is concerned
about the traffic that will come up Cottonwood. Vacant
lots, model homes, and construction traffic makes Cottonwood
Lane useless right now. People are driving through the
neighborhoods to look at the lots and homes. Once build -out
occurs, the traffic volume will quiet down. There were
instances of motorist confusion and near misses at inter-
sections because of the lack of signage. A stop sign was
recently installed which will help solve these problems.
She is in favor of the trail to the park. If it is not
installed, people will develop their own pathways. The
paved trail is necessary and an important part of the
proposed plan.
Chairman Steigerwald and Coordinator McConn discussed the
trail west of Balsam Lane.
Roger Olson, 4532 Boone, representing Mr. and Mrs. Tepley.
He stated the Tepleys have lived on the property for 26
years. Two years ago they spent a substantial sum to
install the concrete drive. They feel inconvenienced and
see no reason why they should have to change their address
and the driveway route. They have made improvements to the
front of their home and do not wish this to become their
backyard. They request reconsideration of the recommenda-
tion to re-route their driveway.
Sohn Parker, 4595 Balsam Lane, stated he agrees with the
trail location in this development. There is a trail that
runs through his backyard, which is fine with him as he
bought his home to be near the park and trail. He does not
agree with an access onto Zachary Lane. He agrees with
Mrs. Love's comments and added that people have not been
driving in a courteous manner, and they exceed the speed
limits in the area. Providing another access to Zachary
Lane will not solve the problem; if the access is approved,
do the then affected homeowners come back with another
petition?
Chairman Steigerwald inquired about the location of the
trail; Coordinator McConn provided an overview of the
Comprehensive Trail Plan.
Dan Thoreson, 4720 Balsam Lane North, stated he lives next
door to the Beckers and is familiar with the problems.
Everyone realizes that another access will create more
Page 145
Planning Commission Minutes
July 23, 1986
traffic for those residents, but there is a need to have an
even distribution of traffic for the community -at -large. He
is not sure whether two exits represents an adequate mode of
evacuation for this part of the community should there be a
disaster. He stated there are codes requiring exits so that
citizens may be evacuated quickly.
Mr. Thoreson stated school buses pick up children on 47th
and 48th Avenues at Balsam Lane and this area is subject to
high traffic volumes. It is his opinion another access is
needed along with traffic signals at Zachary Lane & 48th
Avenue North. He is concerned for the safety of his
children.
Robert Middlemist, stated he had not polled the neighbor-
hood but will agree to provide the outlot to the park.
There could be problems with park visitors using Arrowood
Lane for overflow parking, and attention should also be
given to the future residents.
Commissioner Plufka inquired if Mr. Parker experienced
problems with parking at the trail on his property; Mr.
Parker stated this happens only occasionally.
The Thoroughfare Guide Plan was discussed. Coordinator
McConn stated that as plats are proposed, the developer's
roadway designs are reviewed by the City to make sure they
meet the Ordinance standards. Chairman Steigerwald added
that all residential area development is reviewed to comply
with the Thoroughfare Guide Plan and if there is a need for
minor collector streets, the developer is required to make
these part of his development plans. This was done during
the development of the Deerwood area.
Chairman Steigerwald explained that the City Council will
review all the stated concerns and that these are made part
of the public record. He requested that those in attendance
appoint one representative to speak for each side of the
issue at the City Council meeting.
Mr. Steve Becker inquired if a traffic analysis could be
done. Chairman Steigerwald stated the City is aware of the
problem. City Engineer Goldberg stated a traffic count
could be accomplished.
Further discussion ensued about the stop signs installed,
Mr. Becker stated the signs were installed because the
neighborhood women petitioned the City. The City was not
aware, and only acted once they heard from the neighborhood
women. He stated he wants a traffic study done and that he
is sure it will show the increased traffic and problem
areas.
Page 146
Planning Commission Minutes
July 23, 1986
Dan Thoreson inquired if earlier plats would have shown
these roadways. Chairman Steigerwald explained the
Thoroughfare Guide Plan which shows the overall roadway
design for the area; interior roads are designed as plats
are proposed.
Mr. Becker stated that a roadway to the north was Just
recently approved by the City. Commissioner Plufka explain-
ed that the Thoroughfare Guide Plan shows the networking of
streets to be provided as development occurs. Mr. Becker
asked if the residents were made aware of these connec-
tions? Engineer Goldberg stated the Deerwood developments
were platted in the late 1970's and nothing further has been
approved since 1981. Coordinator McConn explained that the
proposed plat is the last of the undeveloped lots in this
developing area.
Mr. Don Thoreson stated this would be the last opportunity
to request An access onto Zachary Lane and should be con-
sidered by the Commission and Council.
Chairman Steigerwald closed the Public Hearing.
Chairman Steigerwald inquired if a condition could be added
to not change the Tepley's driveway access as long as this
remains their residence; and, then as development occurs,
the drive could be changed. Coordinator McConn answered
affirmatively. Chairman Steigerwald confirmed this could he
done by modifying Condition No. 13, noting that the driveway
shall be maintained until development occurs on Lot 6, at
which time the drive shall be re -directed to Arrowood Lane.
Roger Olson concurred.
Coordinator McConn noted the modification to both Condition
Nos. 11 and 13.
MOTION by Commissioner Plufka, seconded by Commissioner MOTION TO APPROVE
Magnus to recommend approval for Rezoning, Preliminary Plat,
and Variances for "Tepley Addition", subject to the con-
ditions of approval as listed in the July 11, 1986 staff
report with the following modifications: Condition No. 11
shall read: Access shall be limited to internal public
roads and restricted from Zachary Lane; except that driveway
access from the outlot (Lot 6) shall be maintained until
further platting occurs. Condition No. 13 shall read:
Appropriate documents, as approved by the City Attorney,
shall be recorded on the outlot (Lot 6), indicating that in
conjunction with this plat, conceptual documents have been
placed on file with the City which also require that with
further platting of the outlot, the driveway shall be re-
moved and re -directed to Arrowood Lane.
Page 147
Planning Commission Minutes
July 23, 1986
Commissioner Plufka stated he agrees the problems discussed
must be dealt with, but it is not appropriate to have an
additional road to Zachary Lane. To resolve the traffic
problems that may be inherent with further development, it
is appropriate to look at alternatives and study the circu-
lation as County Road 9 is completed. He stated that this
small development cannot carry the burden to solve the traf-
fic problems for the whole area. Commissioner Wire agreed,
and stated there is a need to know what will come about with
the completion of new County Road 9; it is his opinion this
will provide better synchronization of traffic volumes and
circulation.
Roll Call Vote. 6 Ayes. MOTION carried.
Further discussion ensued about the construction traffic on
Cottonwood Lane. Engineer Goldberg suggested that if there
is excessive speed and careless driving noted by residents,
they should report the license numbers to the Department of
Public Safety.
Commissioner Plufka stated that it is recommended the City
Council check the traffic counts and determine if a traffic
analysis is warranted; especially considering the further
development and construction of County Road 9. He suggested
the City also keep in touch with the neighborhood groups.
Coordinator McConn stated the points raised are good, but it
is important to keep in mind that development has not been
completed in this area; and, County Road 9 is to be con-
structed in the near future so that doing a traffic analysis
now may not give all the answers for future traffic
patterns.
Chairman Steigerwald introduced the request by Glory of
Christ Lutheran Church and directed the Commission's atten-
tion to a memorandum from the Director of Public Works re-
garding the water reservoir site on this property.
Coordinator McConn provided an overview of the duly 11, 1986
Planning Staff Report and explained the information in the
memorandum from the Public Works Director. The same inform-
ation has been provided to Reverend Strohschein, three
options were identified; a recommendation that the project
not be approved; negotiations commence to buy an alternate
site; or, negotiations commence to buy an alternate 5 acres
on this site. She stated it was Reverend Stroschein's opin-
ion the Church could negotiate the purchase of 5 acres of
this site, but he will need to confer with the Church's
national office. Coordinator McConn explained that a recom-
mendation could be made to add a condition that prior to
City Council consideration an agreement be entered into be-
tween the Church and the City, to pursue negotiations which
would allow the application to move forward.

Reverend Jon Strohschein stated he has no problem with the
conditions. He spoke to the national office on Monday, and
they were to contact Public Works Director Fred Moore. He
noted that acquisition of land on the southern half of this
property would be acceptable.
Chairman Steigerwald opened the Public Hearing.
Mr. George May, Hastings, MN, stated he represents the
"Party -mart Liquor Store", who is a neighbor to the north of
the church site. He is concerned with the Ordinance regard-
ing approval for liquor licensing, which provides that a
license cannot be granted inside of 300 ft. from a school or
church. He is requesting assurance that the ability to
renew the liquor license be "grandfathered" to their
property and successive owners. They will be within 300
ft. of the church once it is constructed. In the event
"Party -mart" should sell, they want a condition that would
permit the purchaser to renew the license, as a successor.
If this is not applied to this property, the business will
have no value.
Chairman Steigerwald stated he understands the concern, how-
ever, the Planning Commission does not review or consider

Chairman Steigerwald introduced the request by Ryan Con-
struction Company and requested an overview of the duly 14,
1986 Planning Staff Report by Coordinator McConn.
Coordinator McConn explained that Ordinance deficiencies
were under review at the time the Planning Staff Report was
published; however, revised plans were submitted showing
compliance in all areas except for two items which need
final verification: The plans submitted on duly 18, 1986
need to be signed by a Minnesota registered architect or
engineer; and, there is an an inconsistency regarding the
enclosed parking area and the lower level floor plan. Staff
recommends approval of the Site Plan subject to the
conditions with the addition of Condition No. 14, that prior
to consideration of the Site Plan by City Council, the
complete plans shall be presented to City staff for
confirmation of Ordinance compliance; no variances have been
requested by the petitioner.
Steve Kingery stated they will take steps to get the proper
signatures. He explained that these plans have circulated
very rapidly and time was not taken to get them.
Pat Ryan, Ryan Construction Company, stated they are very
excited about this project and that ITT will be locating
their corporate offices here. He stated they (ITT) need the
office space a year from now which has made for a very tight
schedule. He commended City staff who have done everything
possible to expedite the application review process.
Chairman Steigerwald stated the Commission appreciates the
work done by the developer and staff; the project has been
well presented.

Chairman Steigerwald introduced the request by Commercial
Development Corporation and requested an overview of the
July 14, 1986 Planning Staff Report by Coordinator McConn.
Coordinator McConn explained the recommendations for each
building: A 10 ft. setback can be provided for Building One
so there is no need to change the recommended Condition No.
10 as stated; the building height for all three buildings is
within the established height regulation. The
recommendations listed for Building Two remain as stated.
Regarding the freestanding signage for Building Three, they
are proposing only one sign which conforms and complies to
the Ordinance standards. She explained that a need to
locate future wells on this property had been discovered,
and is addressed in the memorandum dated duly 18, 1986.
Staff has met with the petitioner and they have provided a
revised parking layout at Fernbrook and 21st Avenue North
which complies with the Ordinance provisions. There is no
encroachment of parking stalls into this easement and
compliance is attained without variances. There remains one
variance for all three buildings, a parking setback of 43
ft. versus 50 ft. Ordinance standard to 21st Avenue North;
this is similar to the three site plans approved in 1980. A
condition can be added to recommend that prior to forwarding
the application to City Council, revised plans be submitted
for staff confirmation of the well site easement and
compliance with the Ordinance for the parking design. Da --e
Nordale, representing Commercial Development Corporation,
stated he had no questions or comments.
Commissioner Pauba inquired what would be physically seen at
the well site. Engineer Goldberg and Coordinator McConn
discussed the state laws regarding encroachment into well
site easements. Engineer Goldberg stated it would be a
small submersible pump unit; he believed it would be above
grade, similar to one located west of this property. Staff
will verify the housing required for the pump.
Commissioner Wire inquired how well location decisions are
made. Engineer Goldberg stated the well sites have been on
the City's plans since 1978 and a certain number of wells
are needed. He explained the spacing and locations.
Commissioner Wire inquired if the pumps could be moved or
relocated to be compatible with this development?
Coordinator McConn and Engineer Goldberg stated this is what
is being achieved, however, they want the Commission and
petitioner to be aware of the necessity to observe that 50
ft. in all directions of the well are kept open and clear.

Dear Plymouth Businessperson:
Here's an opportunity for your firm's name to appear before more than 16,000
businesses and residents of the City of Plymouth. That's right, in
September, the City will be distributing a community information booklet by
mail to over 11,000 residential households and 5,000 businesses. The
booklet will be a first class information piece, with a four color front
cover and over 40 pages of information about the city. The booklet will
measure 6" x 911, and will be saddle -stitched. It's overall appearance will
be very similar to the Plymouth on Parade newsletter with which you may be
familiar. A total of 20,000 copies will be printed. Those which are not
mailed will be retained at the City Center for distribution to new community
residents and businesses.
For a modest price you can take advantage of this excellent year long
advertising opportunity, while concurrently helping your community to defray
the costs of this brochure. Advertisements will be accepted for full-page,
half -page and quarter -page increments. Full page ads will cost $495, half -
page $275, and quarter -page $150. You provide the art work and layout and
we will do the rest. Attached is a layout sheet for your convenience. All
ads are single color and will likely be grouped in increments of four page
advertising sections.
By taking advantage of this opportunity now, you will be eligible to a
special advertising rate in subsequent years as we annually reissue the
updated version of the community information booklet. For us to meet our
September distribution deadline, I need your response now. So contact me at
559-2800 immediately to reserve your space and provide your art work no
later than Friday, August 15. I will be glad to arrange an appointment with
you to further discuss your advertisement in the Plymouth community
information booklet.
Yours very truly,
Frank Boyles

Mr. Goldberg and Mr. Johnson from the City engineering department have
seen this situation. I visited the site last night and the questions
which remain are as follows:
1. Does the development contract with the developer of this land have
bonding left? If so, how much and for what purpose?
2. what does the developer plan on doing about the erosion of the trail
gravel onto the adjoining homes?
3. What is the developer's obligation regarding the park and the trail?
4. Who is responsible for cutting the weeds in the park?
5. Is the developer responsible for repairing the street breakup?
Please copy this memo and staff's response to councilmembers, the two
affected residents listed above, and myself.
Further, please put a note in the A file to notify me prior to any
further reduction in the bonding on this development.

Robert Ebest

Wooddale Addition (84011)
In response to Mayor Schneider's memo to Jim Willis dated July 23, 1986 the
following questions are answered:
1. Does the development contract with the developer of this land have
bonding left? If so, how much and for what purpose?
Answer:
Yes; see attached resolutions
2. What does the developer plan on doing about the erosion of the trail
on to the adjoining property?
Answer:
We are going to recommend that the developer pave the trail from the
street to at least the top of the hill to prevent further erosion on
to the adjoining properties.
3. What is the developer's obligation regarding the park and the trail?
Answer:
The developer is responsible for grading, seeding, etc. on the park
land, and assure that the drainage is in conformance with the grading
plan. It is my understanding that the developer is going to be doing
some reshaping for the third time in order to get the water to drain
easterly over to the existing catch basin.
Memo: James G. Willis
Page Two
4. Who is responsible for cutting the weeds in the park?
Answer:
The developer or the Homeowner's Association, if one has been formed.
We are also going to recommend that the developer reseed the area
since it appears that most of the vegetation that is growing is
weeds. If the developer does not cut the weeds, the citizens can
contact the forester and have the weeds cut.
5. Is the developer responsible for repairing the street breakup?
Answer:
Yes, we have bond for this and the repairs will have to be made prior
to the time the final surface is constructed.

Dear Steve:
Again we have had complaints of the unhappy residents at 15625 49th Avenue (Dean
and Kathy Bacso) and 15615 49th Avenue (Robert Ebest). The complaints are the
same as last time:
Dirt and gravel washing onto their property from the adjacent park and
trail.
It is my understanding that you are going to do some regrading of the park on the
North end in order to direct the water to the existing storm sewer on the East
side of the park. In my letter of May 19, 1986 I suggested that this be done in
order to help alleviate the problem. Also, I suggested that some sodding be
constructed around the existing storm sewer in order to keep the mud and debris
from plugging up the "beehive" casting. This has not been done to date and in
inspecting the "beehive" casting, it was pretty well sealed off with debris. In
addition the gravelled trailway is still eroding onto the adjacent property.
With the weeds being so tall on the park land, it would be helpful if they were
cut prior to the time the citizen's complained to the weed inspector. It also
appears that the park area will have to be reseeded because most of the
vegetation is weeds and not grass.
I would appreciate if this work could be done as soon as possible since the
residents have contacted the Mayor and Council and seem to be upset with the
situation.
If you have any questions regarding the matter, please contact the undersigned.
Yours very truly,

The Public Safety Department observed and received a complaint about the sale of used
cars from this property. We were asked whether a zoning violation existed and we
confirmed that it did. We also advised the Public Safety Department that, in addition
to the Zoning Ordinance violation, there is a violation of City Code which relates to
the State statutes requiring licensing of all persons selling used cars (as a
business).
I sent the property owner a letter on duly 23, 1986 requesting that the owner take the
necessary steps to have this operation cease on or before August 1, 1986. We will be
re -inspecting the site at that time.

Dear Ms. Zamb:
I understand that you contacted Assistant City Manager Frank Boyles regarding the sale
of automobiles from the Holiday Plus parking lot. This is to let you know that we have
contacted the owner of the property, informing the owner that that activity is in
violation of the Plymouth City ordinances.
We have had cooperation from the ownership and management of Holiday Plus with regard
to similar situations and I expect that we will have their cooperation in solving this
problem as well.
You should be aware that State law and City ordinances do contemplate the occasional
and isolated sale of an automobile by the owner from his residence. This of course is
not the same as the display and sale of cars from a commercial parking lot, but we do
get calls periodically from residents who wonder if the sale of any cars is allowed
other than by formal dealerships.
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention.

I have been advised that a citizen has complained that used automobiles are being
displayed and sold from the parking lot of the Holiday Plus store at County Road 9 and
Nathan Lane. This is a violation of the City's Zoning Ordinance.
You should be aware that the activity is not licensed by the State of Minnesota and
that it is a violation of the City Code and State law to sell new or used automobiles
in this manner without a license.
I do not know who is actually selling the cars, but, as property owner, you are
responsible for activities on the land and therefore, I request that you take the
necessary steps to have this cease. I appreciate that with a large parking lot, this
activity may be found periodically and not be known even to the management or to the
owner. I would recommend that your store security personnel periodically check the
lot. If this activity is discovered, you should take steps to either notify the
personnel involved or to contact the Public Safety Department.
Please look into this matter and let me know if you have any questions. The party
expressing the concern was informed that this matter should be resolved by August 1,
1986.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Dear Bob:
Last Monday evening the City Council heard a presentation by Pete Meyer and
Kevin Nilan of MDA Consulting Group, Inc., regarding development attitudes
in Plymouth. MDA Consulting Group had been retained by the City Council to
again survey numerous developers and others involved in development activity
in our community. The purpose of this study, as you know, is to solicit
candid and confidential comments from those doing business with the
community regarding their perceptions of the community's attitude towards
development.
I am enclosing for your information a copy of the report which was submitted
to the City Council. I would also be pleased to make copies available to
any member of the Development Council who would be interested in receiving
one.
MDA Consulting Group was first retained by the City Council in 1983 to
survey developers regarding their perception on developing in our commun-
ity. That initial study was followed up in 1984. At that time, MDA
Consulting Group noted that substantial progress had been made on the part
of the City and staff in addressing some of the concf-rns identified by
developers. The 1986 follow up notes that, while modest progress has been
made, overall expectations on the part of the developers has also
increased. MDA Consulting Group concludes that the development climate in
Plymouth is essentially good. They did note, however, that one area in
which the City could strive to make improvements would be to find a means by
which the overall review process might be expedited. The City Council has
expressed interest in this and asked the staff to provide them with data on
means by which improvement might be made. I believe this is an area in
which the Development Council may wish to become involved, and we will
accordingly share information with you as it is developed and refined.
If you desire to have this report as an item of information for a presen-
tation at a Development Council meeting, please let me know and I will try
to have a representative of MDA present to explain the report to the members
of the Development Council.
Best regards,
me G. Willis

RE: Fernbrook and County Road 6 Intersection
Dear Mr. Moore:
JUlr
�= C__1
We were disappointed when we learned of your decision to install a three-way
stoplight at the intersection of Fernbrook Road and County Road 6. As we live in
the Parker's Lake neighborhood which is just south of this intersection, this
proposed signal will cause us inconvenience both entering and exiting our
neighborhood at Niagara Lane and County Road 6, and also create a dangerous
condition.
As you are aware, Niagara Lane is one of only two eggresses from our neighborhood.
Since Niagara is most accessible to Minneapolis and Interstate I-694, it becomes
the major access for commuting to work. Commuter rush hour is when the problem
becomes most critical.
We recommend the Niagara Lane be closed to County Road 6 and Fernbrook be extended
south across County Road 6 to align with the existing Fernbrook Lane in the
Parker's Lake neighborhood. This will greatly facilitate the access for the
residents in this neighborhood and create a safer condition along County Road 6.
If the intersection is installed as proposed, we only foresee a dangerous safety
hazard to us and our neighbors. Accessing onto a traffic signal backup lane will
be impossible. Likewise, exiting County 6 with a left turn will result in
tailgating collisions by traffic accelerating from the signal and not expecting a
left turn immediately.
We realize it may be too late to prevent the three-way intersection, however, we
hope you review this situation for reconsideration before too many residents
experience property damage and possibly physical injury. A dangerous interchange
is no more acceptable than a leaky pipeline, although it may get less media
coverage.

The Honorable Gerry Sikorski ` CITY OF
U.S. Representative PLYMOUTH -
414 Cannon House Office Bldg.
Washington, D.C. 20515
Dear Representative Sikorski:
Lyle Robinson has passed your July 9, 1986 letter on to me. In that letter
you request input on four separate approaches to the current liability
insurance crisis facing the nation.
Of the four options listed in your letter, I believe number one, the
California approach, "cut off the deep pockets", to be the most effective.
In the first place, history has demonstrated that juries are hard-pressed to
turn down damages to an individual who will be forever disabled by one
foolish act on his or her part. Given that scenario, a jury is even more
likely to award a disproportionally large award against a nameless, faceless
city where it is more difficult to determine who pays the bill, then assess
the same award against a private firm or individual. I do not advocate
complete city protection from liability exposure arising out of acts or
omissions by municipal employees. To be sure, local government should be
responsible for its actions, but within reasonable financial limits.
We would also support the passage of legislation which would promote the
creation of risk retention groups. In Minnesota, the League of Minnesota
Cities is currently acting as a risk retention group for many outstate and
some metropolitan area cities. The experience to date seems to be
positive. Beyond that, I think you will find that municipalities are fed up
with the eratic market fluctuations of insurance companies where in one year
the insurance carriers fight for the premium dollar of municipalities who
have taken aggressive loss control efforts, and the next year arbitrarily
decide to remove themselves from the municipal market. This means that the
City of Plymouth will be aggressively exploring means to self -insure
itself. In our mind, this approach is far more responsible to the residents
and businesspersons of Plymouth since the onus of our loss control efforts
and its effectiveness will be squarely upon our shoulders. I should mention
that Plymouth was one of the first Minnesota municipalities to self -insure
for its own health insurance and worker's compensation insurance coverage
and our experience has yielded substantial savings to our residents. We
intend to take the same action with respect to general liability and perhaps
even automobile insurance in future years.
The recommendations to establish arbitration panels or a commission to
further study the question do not appear to me to be a prudent course to
follow. I believe that the problem has been well identified and the estab-
lishment of arbitration panels will simply create another body requiring
added tax funding to sustain itself. The existing court system is
sufficient for handling product liability, medical malpractice and tort
actions.

These recommendations aside, other action necessary involves public infor-
mation so that the public is aware of the costs which they are and will
continue to bear as a result of the insurance environment as consumers,
taxpayers (income and property), and businesspersons. Thank you for the
opportunity to submit input on this important topic. If you have any
questions, please call.

In the last few months, the liability insurance crisis has exploded.
What was once.a small dispute limited to a few doctors, lawyers and
insurance companies has now become a problem affecting virtually every
organization in the country. The cost of liability insurance has
skyrocketed out of most people's reach and it is becoming increasingly
difficult for municipalities to obtain coverage.
A number of responses are emerging. In all, over 75 bills have
been introduced in Congress. In the House of Representatives, the
Subcommittee on Commerce, Transportation and Tourism, on which I sit,
has held extensive hearings on the scope and cause of the crisis. We've
paid close attention to legislation that would deal directly with
insurance availability. This month, the Subcommittee will hold hearings
on legislation to facilitate the formation of "risk retention" groups --
which make it easier for businesses, professional groups, and cities to
band together and insure themselves. The Subcommittee has also heard
testimony on legislation to require extensive disclosure of insurance
industry practices, so we could better judge the cause of the current
crisis.
Nobody has been hit harder by the liability crisis than American
municipalities, especially those in small communities. Small cities and
towns have limited budgets, so they cannot self -insure. And they have
little, if any, ability to develop significant new revenue sources.
Providing the public with the services to which it has grown accustomed
has become more and more difficult.
The crisis has hit hard and fast. It's important that we develop
solutions soon. But it's especially important that municipal officials,
who best know what would and wouldn't work in their jurisdictions,
participate in the development of solutions. That's why I want to
describe for you some of the proposals that are now being discussed, and
invite you to contact me with your impressions. Would any of these

approaches help? What problems would arise? How could these proposals
be modified? What other avenues are available?
1)' The California Approach: Cut off "Deep Pockets"
In June, voters in California approved a referendum that
will reduce drastically the liability of California cities. Passed by a
nearly 2 to 1 margin, this initiative will limit a defendant's liability
for "pain and suffering" to the percentage of fault established for that
defendant. Say, for example, that a drunk driver runs a stop sign
partly obscured by a tree branch and severely injures a pedestrian. If
a jury finds that the drunk driver was 95% responsible and the city 5%
responsible because it neglected to trim the tree branch, the city's
liability for "pain and suffering" damages would be limited to 5% of the
total amount awarded.
2) Risk Retention Groups
Three separate bills have been introduced in the House of
Representatives to make it easier for state and local governments,
business and professional groups, hospitals, schools, churches and other
institutions to purchase liability insurance on a group basis. All
three would amend the Product Liability Risk Retention Act of 1981 to
exempt these so-called "risk -retention groups" from state laws which
prohibit or regulate them.
3) Establish Arbitration Panels
Another bill, H.R. 4920, would establish arbitration panels in U.S.
district courts to handle product liability cases, medical malpractice,
tort actions against governmental bodies and other civil actions
involving personal injuries.
4) Establish a Commission
Rep. Barney Frank (MA) has introduced legislation which would
establish a National Commission on the Liability Crisis to investigate
the cause of the problem and recommend reforms. The findings would be
submitted to the President and to Congress. Rep. David Dreir (CA) has
introduced a similar bill establishing a commission to study the
financial condition of the insurance industry and the effect of state
tort laws on the liability insurance crisis.
As you can see, none of these approaches offers a complete solution
and any of them could have unintended side effects. The solutions to
this crisis will probably come from the municipal officials most
directly involved. If you have suggestions, please let me know about
them. New approaches are needed, and there will never be a better
opportunity for local officials to make a difference. We need your
input.

LETTER FROM EIDEN CONSTRUCTION, INC.
On July 21, 1986 I received a letter from Mr. Bob Christen of Eiden Construction
expressing his appreciation for the services provided by Mike Kulczyk for one of
their homes being built.
It is my understanding that a sub -contractor working for Eiden Construction failed to
contact our office to schedule a footing inspection. Mr. Christen became aware of the
situation after the Ready Mix trucks had been ordered and on their way. Mr. Christen
contacted our Division explaining his problem, and asked for an inspection
immediately.
Although Mike was at lunch, he offered to do the inspection. Mr. Christien's letter
is not clear, but I believe his intentions were sincere.
