Director Blank began the discussion on this itembyindicating that the plat proposed by Lundgren Bros. for the Reiser property has not yet been presented to the Planning Commission. The purpose of PRAC's review is to address the issue of whether or not there should be public land included in this plat. Mike Pflaum, representing Lundgren Bros., then addressed the Commission and the audience by stating the reasons Lundgren Bros. wants the same piece of property for a 'home site that the City wants for park._ He indicated that the site is a very large, Lakeshore site, with many trees.; It's private and scenic, and thus, is very valuable to Lundgren Bros. He further stated that the neighborhoods adjacent to this property are already well endowed wit.;': parks and that the City's Comprehensive Plan does not propose a park on this property. He further indicated that Imperial Hills park, which is nine acresin size, is only one-half mile away, and their residents will have trail access to the lake. Also, Green Oaks Park is adjacent to this peat-. Holy Name Lake on 'County Road 24 has a public canoe access and parking, and is no farther away from the majority of Greentree West residents than is Mooney Lake. He argued further that this park would be pretty isolated and would get little use since it is on the western boundary of the City and is accessible only by pedestrians. He also indicated his displeasure with the 38% increase in park dedication fees, and that it was increased only to fund the purchases which have been scheduled in accordance with the Comprehensive Plan. He stated if Lundgren Bros. is allowed to keep this lot for a homesite, they will construct at their expense a large wooden observation deck for the residents to use. Following Mr. Pflaum's presentation, Chair Edwards opened the meeting for public comment. Sal Testa, 2305 Walnut Grove "Lane, spoke in support of making the southeast corner of the development a public park,. He has seen marry residents walk to the lake to fish using this particular area as the access. Dave Volker, 2830 Brockton Lane, has known Mr. Reiser for a number of years, and Mr. Reiser informally granted access to the lake via his property for anyone who wanted to use it. Mr. Volker claims that the overlook proposed by Lundgren Bros. is too far away from the lake to be enjoyed by the residents. He estimates that the distance is 468' feet and one would neee, a telescope to see the lake. Donn Wassink, 2345 Walnut Grove Lane, supporta the recommendation to make a portion of the Lundgren Bros. plat public land. Paul Wirtz, 2325 Walnut. Grove Lane,, supports the idea of a public park area but wants to make sure it's not going to be similar to the park at Parkers Lake. April 1989 FRAC'Minutes Page 1 Peggy Cost, 1875 Troy Lane, is concerned that ,the City may not understand what "kind" of lake Mooney Lake is She stated that it is very muddy on, the bottom and has lots of snapping turtles that wander into people's hfiekyards. It isnot a swimming lake. Stye also said that she didn't want to see big 'boats razing around on it and Wondered if there was some way to regulate that. Director Blank stated that there is & five horsepower, motor limitation on this lake, Mrs. Cost was surprised to hear this, and stated that last summer there were jet skis being used on the lake. She asked if some sort of notice could he put in Plymouth on Parade to remind, homeowners that there is a horsepower limitation in effect., Director Blank suggested that the homeowner association should co tact all residents on the lake regarding the horsepower limitation as a first step in enforcing this policy, Doris Bullard, 2025 Xanthus L**ne, stated that When they purchased their home, ,she felt like thfey had moved to paradiae. She described the area as a bird and wildlife sanctuary, which is very beautiful and quiet. She supports keeping some of the Reiser property as a public park rather than letting Lundgren Bros. develop it as a home site. Doug Miller, 18730 27th Avc lue, also supports public park and thinks - it would be nice to tie it into the trail system proposed for the east side of the Lundgren plat, Following the residents' comments, Chair Edwards asked the v mmiso overs for their thoughts on thfs issue.. Commissioner Hanson said that she supporte.d.some type. of public access for those people who wouldnot otherwise have access.. She felt that the 10% park dedict.ion required of Lundgren should ail be in the form of land rather than cash Commissioner Freels supported the idea of bringing, the trail down to the water's edge and creating some type of public area where people could sit down on benches, sightsee and fish, Commissioner Anderson feels that building a home on the southeast corner of the Lundgren plat would, destroy any natural 'habitat that exists there, and he feviv. it is important to preserve as much of this area as possible, Commissioners Edwards;, LaTour and Rosen also agree that the public has rights to lake use, and that if Lundgren Bros. wer,1 to build a home on the southeast corner of the Reiser property, those rights would be severely limited. A motion was made by Cotranissioner Hanson and seconded by Consa issioner Freels to encourage the City Council to require that the lox park dedication from Lundgren Bros. be in the form of land in order to provide public access to Mooney Lake for the purpose of canoeing and k fishing. etc. 4z, A motion to amend the motion was mads by Commissioner Beach to include that. the City should retain as much natural area as pogsible. April 1989 PRAC Minutes Page 16 Commissioner Fr,els then withdrew his second of the motion made by Commissioner Hanson and amended the main motion to preserve as much of the southeast corner of the Lundgren plat as possible as authorized by park dedication. Commissioner Anderson seconded Commissioner Freels' amendment. After further discussion, all amendments and the main motion Were withdrawn A NOTION WAS MADE BY COMMISSIONER HANSON AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER ROSEN TO ACQUIRE A NATURAL PRESERVE AREA IN THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE REISER PROPERTY ON [GOONEY LAKE,, WHICH WILL GIVE THE PUBLIC LAKE; RIGHTS WITH THE SAME REGULATIGNS AS THE HOMEOWNERS ON THE LAKE. THE MOTION CARRIED WITH ALL AYES A MOTION WAS MADE BY COMMISSIONER FREELS AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER BEACH THAT THE PRESERVATION OF THIS PARK LAND SHOULD BE MADE WITH AS MINIMAL DIT STURISANCE AS POSSIBLE TO THE LAKE. THE MOTION CARRIED WITH ALL AYES b. C2=rehenaiy2 Plan Update There are only two park issues being considered in updating the comprehensive plan, therefore, Director Blank said that the Planning Commission would be the only group holding public meetings on this issue. He will continue, to meet With Blair Tremere to provide input on those two issues which includes keeping the area of County Road 9 and,Vicksburg Lane guided as public, semi-public; and changing the guiding of Mud Lake from residential to public, semi-public.. Planning Commissioner Zylla spoke briefly about the numerous meetings the Planning Commission has held over the: past thrae months regarding updating the comprehensive plan. tie. indicated that there has been a lot of "down" guiding. from LA3 to LA2 and LAI. He said that they are changing some, residential guiding to industrial and vice versa. He stated they spent a lot of time on; the area west, of Vicksburg. He bali ves that the last meeting they will have prior to the public. hearings will be Tuesday, April 18; c. West lfedicine juke Drive Trail Update, This item has been turned over to the Engineering Department.

A contract, has not been signed; yet With the architec^ ,--O %. ie City Manager is in the process of negotiating with them, Iut Rir-,cer of Barker, Rinker and April: 1989 PRAC Minutes Page 17 Seacat (working with the firm of BWBR), was in; Plymouth last week and met with a group of senior citizens regarding what they'd,like to have included in the community center..

Two hundred thirty-two were returned for a. 62% return. Of those, 31.% participated in recreation programs ' in 1988, and 90% of the participants were satisfied with their experiences. Ninety percent also said they would recommend our programs to others. One item Bary found somewhat disturbing is that 24% thought registering for our programs was a minor or serious probl-tm, but only 37% said they would like to register by phone and charge the classes to their major credit card. Not too surprising was the fact that about 32% of the adults responding said their best time to attend classes was between 6 and 8 P.M. On t'he other hand, it was somewhat surprising to learn that about, 34Xof the adults, want programming on weekends during the summer. T'o 'irtost requested indoor facilities are: Wayzata Nigh " School, Armstrong High School and Parkers hake Pavilion. Outdoor facilities included Zachary Playfield, Plymouth Creek Playfield and Plymouth Middle School. Adults requested more programming in the ureas of fitness and one time special events.

Kilmer Park Playground, Director Blank indicated he. has a budget of for the improvements at Kilmer Park. Of that, $8,000 will be: 20,000 needed for pea gravel, leaving $12,000 for the new equipment. Half of those responding to the questionnaire requested leaving the basketball hoop at eight feet. PRAC recommended raising it to 10 feet, however, because they feel more, injuries could take place by leaving it at eight feet. Director Blank stated that he is proposing to talk to several different playground designers to see what each might offer ti for $12,000, and choosing the one who offers the most for that price.

Mr. Wicklund has been in touch with the; Consumer Products Safety Bureau, and they indicated that they have received two studies with different opinions on the use of pea gravel. The only recommendation they are making at this time is against, the use of concrete, asphalt or packed soil.. Sometime in 1990, the CPSB will do their own research on the use of pea. gravel, and Director Blank indicated he will wait until the results of that report are available before making any decisions on this issue. 9.

Blank, Director of Parks and Recreation F) SUBJECT: SWAN LAKE NEIGHBORHOOD PARK Background Information Craig Sherber has submitted a plat entitled Swan Lake West. Within this plat area is property that shows on our comprehensive park plan as a neighborhood park site. After a number of meetings with Mr. Sherber and his architect, Tom Louka and Associates, I have not been able to reach an agreement with the developer, which in my opinion, adequately addresses the neighborhood park needs at this location. Mr. Sherber wishes to proceed with his plat moving forward for City Council review. Because of this impasse, this item is being brought before PRAC for your review and comment, before it, goes to the City Council. Mr. Sherber and I have reached an impasse on this matter, because we view the problem, from two different perspectives. I believe that the plan should, first and foremost, lay out a well designed and adequately sized park. if that park size should exceed the 10% that is required by our ordinance for dedication, then the City must be in a position to reimburse the developer for the extra land cost. Mr. Sherber would, like to keep the park dedication to the 10% allowed in the ordinance. Issues The one primary issue before the Commission is the matter of park layout and size. The comprehensive park map clearly shows a large neighborhood park totally surrounding Swan Lake. Our neighborhood park standards state that a neighborhood, park shall be between five and 21 acres in size. Adjacent land use shouldbe. residential or school, but with no more than two sides being residential. This park standard also goes on to say that the park should be totally exposed with views into the park from all directions. When I review this plat, I. do not believe that the proposed park adequately meets the standards as called for -in the comprehensive plan. On the attached graphic, I have shown in, green the existing park land that was dedicated from the Swan Lake Addition. This area consists of 3.18 acres of land and 1.54 acres of pond. The area in yellow as proposed in the new Swan Lake West Addition consists of 3.43 acres of ground. The area in orange consists of .78 acres. My concern. is that currently we have existing residential homes north and east of this park. As proposed by the Swan Lake development, the end result is virtually a neighborhood park totally surrounded by homes. I'm especially concerned that lots 1-10 surrounding the lake would create a very undesirable situation between single family homes and a park use. Most likely these will be very Large, very expensive single family homes, which will end up with a public walking trail going through their back yards.. I think this will make both the park users and the 'home owners uneasy. Additionally, because of a lack of public access, the park will feel like a private park owned by a home owners association. On, the second graphic colored in yellow the developer has proposed that the City build the necessary cul-de-sac on the dead end of Quinwood Lane, inside the proposed park area. Road right-of-way should not be part of park. dedication land. Recommendation I believe the City Council should deny this plat and send it back to the developer for further redesign, with specific instructions to; 1) allow for more public Land to front on a street, and 2) work toward eliminating the overcrowding of residential homes and the trail area going around the lake. If the Council does not wish to send back for redesign, I recommend that lots 1, 9 and 10, surrounding the lake, be incorporated into park property, and that the trail corridor around the west side of the lake be a minimum of 100 feet in width above the high water mark; and the developer be required to build the Quinwood Lane cul-de-sac on property not dedicated for park. The Commission's options are approve plan as submitted approve plan with amendments deny plan; ask for redesign. I believe that if we do not adequately address the issue of size and shape of the park land, we will have a very difficult t i developing a master ;plan for the park that will be a high quality proc I strongly encourage the commissioners to visit, and walk this site prior to the Comission meeting. I would be happy to make myself, available to visit the site with you if you so desire, EB/np Attachment Lom 7216 Boone Avenue N., Brooklyn Park, Minnesota 55428 (612) 535-6937 4 May 1 1989 M s,£,j.f r rz LOPt;t>> Mr. Charles Dillerud Community Development Coordinator CITY OF PLYMOUTH 3400 Plymouth Boulevard Plymouth, MN 55447 Mr. Dillerud:' The purpose of this letter is to address those issues raised by your correspondence dated April 24 1989. 1. As of the DRC meeting on Tuesday, April 18, 1989, only the Land Use Guide Plan Amendment and Rezoning had been accepted for -pro- cessing. The,PreliminaryPlat had not as yet been accepted, pend- ing receipt from you of an extension to the 120 -day statutory re- view period. On April 19, 1989, the necessary reviews had been completed regard- ing the extension memorandum that you had submitted, and the 'Pre- liminary Plat was accepted for processing., No comments were made' by staff at the April 18 meeting 0,th respect to the Prel imi"nary Plat, but some comments.have come forth subsequently, which are included in this letter. As you are aware, Mr. Scherber provided you with a 120 day waiver on April 17 1989. You have verbally indicated to me and sub- sequently indicated in your correspondence of April '24, 1989 that the Preliminary Plat proposal is, being processed by the City, 2. The Director of Park and Recreation has indicated that the proposed Swan Lake West plat does, not adequately address the concerns. of the current Park Pian. Specifically, the Director has indicated his concerns with respect to the cul-de-sac on Quinwood Lane ex- tending into the park from the north; the width of the proposed trail entrance into the park from 44th Avenue cul-de-sac; length of the frontage on a public road for this, park in total; and the narrow band of trail that would result around the lake, thereby bringing large single-family homes into close proximity to a pub - Tic use. The Director has indicated a willingness to meet with you and your designer, or bring the matter to the Park and Recreation Advisory Commission at their May 11 meeting. a Community Planning • Site Design + Economic Development • Market Research Charles Dilleruci' Page 2 May 1, 1989 Most of these matters have been previously addressed by us in Memorandums dated April 5 and 20, 1989, However, it appears necessary to revisit these issues to provide additional points of clarification. A. A cul-de-sac has been designated for construction at- tfie southerly of Qtend uinwood Lane note Plan sheetherl 9/11). It is specifically noted on the plan that it is to be "constructed by others"- because it serves the future City Park and not the Swan Lake West Development. The cul-de-sac has not been designated on the Prelim inary Plat because the land i.s'going to be conveyed to the City for public purposes as part.of the park- land dedication requirement, B. The width of the trail corridor from the 44th Avenue cul-de-sac is 30 -feet. It is anticipated that an 8 foot trail will be constructedwithin this corridor. C. The Swan Lake West proposal provides for 210 feet of park frontage on a public street., The proposed front age may not meet the desired 50% ratio, but it is cer- tainly much greater than the 99 feet provided the single family development.to the east and 50' by the townhDuse development to the north. Lt is unreasonable to impose this policy on the Swan Lake gest development i.n view of the fact that it was not previously required.of other developments surround- ing the park. C. Acquisition of Outlet A by the City will provide a trail corridor with high. ground that ranges i.n width. 651• to 90`'. It is obvious. that there Is, suffic*kent space to build an 8' trail within the framework.,of this corridor. 3. Please provide calculations with respect to the density of the proposed development after public roads and required 'park land have been subtracted.

Willis, City Manage SUBJECT ACQUISITION OF SUPERINTENDENT'S HOME AT THE HENNEPIN ADULT CORRECTIONS FACILITY I. SUMMARY The Hennepin County Board has indicated its willingness to sell to the City the superintendent's residence, at the Adult Corrections Facility, comprising 1.73 acres, for S130,000. - I recommend the Council accept this offer and authorize the City Attorney and City Manager to constomate the purchase on behalf of the City by adoption of the attached resolution. 2. BACKGROUND: As previously reported to the Council. (see attached memo), the Property Management Division. of the County informed us of their intent to sell to former superintendent's residence. The County had the property appraised in October 1986 and updated the appraisal in May 1988. Based upon the County's appraisal the fair market value for the property Including the residence was $170,000. Following the February 6 Council meeting I had an independent appraisal done for the land only. That appraisal indicated a -value of $84,000. The County Board has indicated its willingness to sell the property to the City for $100,000.As noted in my previous memo to the Council on this subject, I believe the value in acquiring the property lies in the land and not in the former residence. The residence will promptly be scheduled for demolition as soon as we have acquired it. We are currently seeking proposals for the demolition, including capping of any wells. 3oe Ryan has previously inspected the building and concluded that the cost to make the building suitable for public use would be prohibitive. 3.

Willis, CityManager _i SUBJECT ACQUISITION OF HENNEPIN COUNTY WORKHOUSE SUPERINTENDENT'S HOME 1. SUMMARY: Hennepin. County is preparing to sell the former superintendent's home on the Workhouse site. The sales price, which has been established following a private appraisal, 13.$170,000. 1 recommend that the Council authorize the purchase of the property in order that it may be incorporated into the Parkers Lake Park. 2. BACKGROUND: The Property Management. Division >of' Hennepin County has Informed. us of their intent to sell the former superintendent's residence at the Workhouse. The 1.73 acre property is located on the north side of County Road 6, immediately adjacent to the Parkers Lake North Addition of Mr. Laukka•and the City's future Parkers Lake Community Playfield complex. The County had the property appralsed in October 1986 and updated that appraisal in May 1988. Based upon the latter appraisal, the County has set the fair market value of the property of S170,000. A copy of the appraisal is attached. I' asked the City Assessor to review the appraisal and give me his views with respect to the reasonablen-ss of Its conclusion. He believes the appraisal conclusion does represent a fair market value of the,property. I asked Joe Ryan, our Building Official, to tour the home to determine whether or not it would be adequate for any public purpose. He has concluded that substantial work would be required to make the building suitable for public assembly and that, in his view, such costs would be prohibitive. His memo is attached. Fred Moore, Eric Blank, Mary Patterson, and I have also toured the residence and collectively agree that the structure would not meet any City need. The value to the community,, Iii my opinion, lies in the land and not in the structure. The property has a good elevation and a lovely view overlooking Parkers Lake. It would be a beautiful compliment to the future development of our park system since it abuts land which we currently own. Civro its elevation, landscaping, and location relative to the Parkers Lake Park parking, lot, I believe it would be an ideal: ACQUISITION OF'HENMEPTN COUNTY WORKHOUSE SUPERINTENDENT'S NOME February ;2, 1989 for Council Meeting of February F Page 2 site for picnicing and general passive recreation without expensive improvements. Acquisition of the site would, note create substantial additional maintenance burden. It would not, in my view, be: useful for active recreational, activities without substantial grading which would destroy -its natural; beauty. Councilmembers may wish to visit the, site.. If you are interested in touring the residence I can make those arrangements. 3. RECOMMENDATION: I recoavmend that the City authorize the staff to negotiate with Hennepin County to acquire the property for 5170,000, the funds coming from the Community Parks Account of the Park Dedication Fund. 3w:kec x MEMO CITY OF PLYMOUTH 3400 PLYMOUTH BOULEVARD, PLYMOUTH, MINNESOTA 55447 DATE: January 18, 1989 TO: James G.
