The Street Reclaim Improvement includes approximately 2.3 miles of local streets consisting of 55th Street North, from Demontreville Trail North to 57th Street North; 57th Street North, from Julep Way North to Keats Avenue North; Jamaca Avenue North, from 55th Street North to Jamaca Boulevard North; and Jamaca Boulevard North, from 55th Street North to Jamaca Avenue North. The attached notice was published in the official newspaper and individual notifications were sent to each address that will be wholly or partially assessed for the improvements. A feasibility report was adopted by the City Council on December 6, 2016 in order to ready these improvements for 2017 construction. The feasibility report is needed to tneet state statutory requirements if any portion of the project is to be assessed. The report identifies the necessary improvements, the estimated project costs, the assessment methodology and preliminary assessment amounts to be levied against benefitting properties. ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: The City Council is respectfully requested to open the Public Improvement Hearing for the 2017 Street Improvements; and following the Hearing, consider adopting a Resolution Ordering the Improvement and the Preparation of Plans and Specifications; and awarding a Professional Engineering Design and Construction Support Services Contract, PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: The total estimated project cost is $1,400,000. The improvements would be partially assessed against the benefitting properties consistent with the City's Special Assessment Policy. Street and drainage improvements are assessed at a rate of 30% of the total project costs for residential properties using a unit method, and at a rate of 100% of the total project costs for non-residential properties based upon the actual front footage abutting the improvement. Residential properties are considered to provide an equal demand on street use and are therefore assessed on a per unit basis. The remaining 70% of the project costs are paid through the City general fund. Residential properties along 55th Street North, 57th Street North, Jamaca Avenue North and Jamaca Boulevard North with direct access to the street are included as benefitting properties. Each property is assessed one unit unless the property has the ability to be subdivided using the current underlying land use and zoning regulations. The city planniiig department reviews larger parcels to determine if a parcel can be subdivided and the number of lots that could be obtained. The preliminary assessment rolls detailing each property's proposed assessment amount are included in the Appendix of the report and are attached to this agenda report. Assessments for street and drainage improvements will be levied over a 15-year period. Assessments will be charged an interest rate of l% over the bond rate for the project. To complete the engineering design, the city engineer prepared and sent out a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Engineering Support Services that include topographic survey, the preparation of plans and specifications; plan printing, distribution and bidding services; construction administration support to the city engineer, and construction staking. FOCUS Engineering will provide council communication, project management, and construction administration and observation services for the project. FOCUS will also oversee the project design standards and documents to be incorporated with the project plans and specifications. The RFP was sent to three firms from the city's Engineering Consultant Pool, including Bolton and Menk, TKDA and SEH. Proposals were received on January 6, 2016 and ranked as follows: • Project Team Qualifications with a focus on a Project Manager capable of leading and delivering a cost effective street reclaiin design. • Demonstrated understanding and experience with the project and understanding of the critical success factors. • Understanding the scope of work and roles and responsibilities of the Consultant. • Collaboration of skills and responsiveness demonstrated during the RFP submittal process and: • Engineering Fees, indicating a detailed breakdown that is consistent with the Consultant's written proposal and the needs for delivery of a successful project. The attached exhibit provides the Proposal Fee Suinmary as received by the responding consultants. The Proposal Fees ranged from $71,000 to $88,820. SEH declined to submit. Engineering, Fees are subtotaled for each project phase including project management, plans and specifications, bidding, and construction support services including construction staking. The city engineer is recommending a contract be awarded to TKDA. They have assigned a qualified team appropriate for the level of work required for this project and have previous work experience on similar projects. TKDA also identified a thorough understanding of the work to be performed and they are aware of key issues related to the project. FISCAL IMPACT: $59,000 for engineering fees necessary for the preparation of plans and specifications and bidding services for the proposed improvements. The 2017 Street Improvements is an estimated $1,400,000 infrastructure project that will be partially assessed against the benefitting properties consistent with the City's Special Assessment Policy. The project is funded through the issuance of general obligation bonds and special assessments. Ordering the Improvements and authorizing the preparation of plans and specifications commits the City to incur the engineering costs necessary to complete detailed design and receive contractor bids to ready the project for construction in 2017. The council will be asked to award a contract for construction in May 2017, at which time the City would be asked to commit to the remaining project costs. OPTIONS: 1.

The purpose of the EAW is to disclose infonnation about potential environmental impacts of the project and to deten-nine whether more involved Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is required. A draft of the EAW was prepared by the Kjolhaug Environmental and accepted by the City for advertisement with the Environmental Quality Board (EQB) on October 24, 2016. The advertisement triggered a 30 day comment period which ended on November 23, 2016. The City received 11 written comments: four from state agencies, four from regional and local agencies, one from a community group, and two from Lake Elmo residents. The City had 30 days in which to respond to the comments received and to determine whether a more involved Environmental Impact Statement. Under EQB rules, the City may postpone its decision to gather critical missing information for up to 30 days or a longer period if agreed to by the developer; and the decision must be documented in written record of decision. The City exercised this option with the developer's approval in order to gather information and properly address comments provided by the Minnesota Department of Health and Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. City Staff'has reviewed the submitted comments and has prepared the attached Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision for the Royal Golf Club Residential Development EAW. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council make a negative declaration for the need for an EIS with the following motion: "Move to adopt Resolution 2017-007 finding no need for an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Royal Gold Club Residential Development" City Council Meeting 01/17/2017 Regular Agenda Item 4'10 ATTACHMENTS: Resolution 2017-007 • Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision for the Royal Golf Club Residential Development EAW • EAW - Public and Agency comments.

The project includes 292 single-family residential lots that will be served by municipal utilities. The project will involve installation of public and private infrastructure, grading, storniwater ponding, and open space preservation. The residential development is part of the overall Royal Golf Club area, which covers 477 acres and was previously known as Tartan Park. Tartan Park was a 27-hole golf course, clubhouse, and sports complex with wetlands and open space. The existing 27-hole golf course will be rehabilitated as an IS -hole golf course. The rest of the golf course, sports complex, and some of the open space will be converted to residential use. The residential project has a net density of about 1.5 units per acre and will preserve about 90.8 acres as private open space. The residential area includes 198 acres of useable land and 24 acres of regulated wetlands and public waters. Shoreland overlay districts of five public waters cover about 48 percent of the project area (107 acres). At least 50 percent of this shoreland area will be open space protected by easement. Metropolitan Council indicated the proposed project brings City's overall density down from 3.25 units/acre to 3.05 units/acre, which is still consistent with Metropolitan Council's policy of 3.0 units/acre. The overall project area includes 198.3 acres of useable land (excluding regulated wetland) and the project design preserves 90.8 acres (46 percent of the net acreage) as private open space. The shorelands on the site include at least 50 percent open space outside °riots, which will he covered by easements. An Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) was prepared pursuant to Minnesota Rules Part 4410.4300, subpart 19 (C) (Residential Development). The EAW and the respective comments have been reviewed in accordance with Minnesota Rules Part 4410.1700 to determine if the project has potential for significant environmental effects. This document includes the City of Lake Elmo (the "City")'s responses to comments that it received from persons and agencies on the official Environmental Quality Board ("EQB") distribution list, the City's findings of fact supporting its decision that an Environmental Impact Statement is not necessary for this project, and its record of decision. EAW Notification, Distribution, and Comment Period In accordance with Minnesota Rules Part 4410.1500, the EAW was completed and distributed to persons and agencies on the official EQB distribution list. The notification was published in the EQB Monitor on October 24, 2016, initiating the 30-day public comment period. A press release and public notice was subtnitted to Oakdale -Lake Elmo Review on October 24, 2016 and was published on November 2, 2016. The comment period ended on November 23, 2016. COMMENTS RECEIVED The City received 11 written comments: four from state agencies, four from regional and local agencies, one from a community group, and two from City residents (Table 1). Copies of the written comments are included in Appendix A of this document. None of the written comments that were submitted recommended preparation of an EIS.

The MNDNR ID # for the unnamed public watercourse is M-050-009-001. Response Comment noted for the record. The reference to 82-177W in the EAW is hereby corrected to read 82- 417W. VBWD Comment The site is within an existing, somewhat connected, natural greenway corridor, as shown on Figure 20 of VBWD's March 2013 Results of Minnesota Routine Assessment Method (MNRAM) or Evaluating Wetland Function. Response Comment noted for the record. The project design includes a northwest -southeast oriented greenway that includes golf course and open space which will be a focus of the City's development review, and a second greenway that is along the western boundary of the site. 7.0. Cover Types MDNR and MA Comments Has a tree preservation and replacement plan been prepared for this proposed development that meets City ordinance? The EAW includes no record of a Tree Preservation Plan or tree inventory. Tree impacts warrant further investigation. The developer should hire a forester. Response The Tree Preservation Plan is required as part of the preliminary plat/PUD application, which will be sent to the City in the coming weeks or months. The City will review the Tree Preservation Plan as part of the preliminary plat/PUD approval process. The project proponent is reviewing tree preservation measures with the assistance of a team that includes ecologists, a forester/arborist, and a registered landscape architect. WCD Comment Use native vegetation in open spaces and buffers, enhance greenways. Response Open space planning will be considered and advanced in association with the preliminary plat/PUD. Native vegetation plantings will be considered for low maintenance open spaces that are not forested. 8.0. Permits and Approvals Met C Comment The proposed project brings City's overall density down from 3.25 units/acre to 3.05 units/acre, which is still consistent with Metropolitan Council's policy of 3.0 units/acre. The City will need to update the wastewater and MUSA sections of its Comprehensive Plan, and Metropolitan Council will need to Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet approve it. Sanitary sewer plans need to be submitted to Metropolitan Council at the time of submission to MPCA. Response Comment noted for the record. A Comprehensive Plan Amendment that is currently being reviewed by the City would update the wastewater and MUSA sections of the Comprehensive Plan, as well as provide a new land use designation for the development area. MPCA Comment The list of permits and approvals in the EAW does not include MPCA 401 Water Quality Certification. Response The project does not require any of the following permits: • Section 401 Water Quality Certification from the MPCA; • individual Section 404 Permit from the U.S. Anny Corps of Engineers (USACE); • Letter of Permission from the USACE; • Regional General Permit from the USACE; • Section 10 Permit from the U.S. Coast Guard; or • Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Pennit. W.Co. Comment The County agrees that an access permit will be required at CSAH 10/l0th Street and CSAH 17/Lake Elmo Avenue. The County reserves the right to require additional improvements, as needed, as a condition of these permits. Response Comment noted for the record. HHA Comment The Coinprehensive Plan Amendment has not been submitted to Metropolitan Council. Response Comment noted for the record. The permit list included in the Findings of Fact section of this document notes that the Comprehensive Plan Amendment is to be submitted to Metropolitan Council. 9.0. Land Use (General) W.Co. Comment Intensifying land uses within the Municipal Urban Service Areas (MUSA) is appropriate to complement the existing golf course and clubhouse use. The result will be increased traffic at 1-94 interchanges. Upgrades in interchange infrastructure typically include a city cost share. The development implements the land use and transportation goals of the Washington County Comprehensive Plan 2030. Response Comment noted for the record. Per the trip generation and distribution information provided in the Traffic Impact Study, 121 a.m. peak hour trips and 191 p.m. peak hour trips are directed toward the south 4 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet and west, which, conceivably, could make use of interchanges on 1-94. These increased trips represent a very small increase to the regional transportation network. HHA Comment It is common fbr RGUs to delay action on Comprehensive Plan Amendments pending EAW process completion. Response As set forth under Minnesota Rules Part 4410.3100, the City acknowledges that final government permit or approval decisions concerning the project may not be made until after the environmental review process is complete. A comprehensive plan amendment is not considered a final project approval and therefore may run concurrently with the environmental review process. 9.1. Land Use (Shorelands) MDNR Comment The proposed Royal Golf Club Residential PUD development is too dense for the natural resources on the site. In making this evaluation, MDNR considered overall project suitability by looking at how the design impacts the existing natural environment on the site. MDNR looks for consistency with density allowances, setbacks, height, and more subjective performance standards dealing with protection of vegetation and sensitive slopes. A development is not suitable if it is consuming areas of high quality vegetation and areas with slopes greater than 12 percent (which MDNR considers steep slopes). Ultimately, however, it is up to the City to evaluate project suitability. Response The project design meets the minimum allowable base densities under Minnesota shoreland rules and PUD shoreland evaluation methods. The initial project concept plan included 360 lots. The current plan included 68 fewer lots, indicating a 19 percent reduction in overall project density. The project design places roadways on ridges and higher elevations to avoid impacting some of the sensitive resources and minimizes environmental effects to the extent practicable with the current design. Addition design modifications will be considered with the preliminary plat review to further reduce environmental impacts. The City will work with the project proponent to further reduce woodland impacts where practicable. Mitigation practices may include minimizing development impact on the woodlands and buckthorn removal. MDNR Comment Rewrite the statement on page 3 so that it does not imply that the City has determined that this project meets shoreland overlay district requirements. Response Comment noted for the record, The City and the project proponent acknowledge that the City has not completed its review of the development as it relates to shoreland overlay district requirements. The project proponent has submitted information intended to show how the project design meets the minimum requirements for shoreland density and open space. However, further review of the shoreland requirements will be conducted by the City as part of a future preliminary plat application review. 5 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet MDNR Comment The EAW states that the City's ordinance requires only two conditions to be met to allow for PUDs. PUDs, by their very nature, are a negotiation between the local government and the proposer. The City, through the PUD process, can require additional conditions in exchange for the increased density that is allowed under a PUD. Response Comment noted for the record. The City will be reviewing the PUD and working with the project proponent to potentially further mitigate environmental effects and potentially provide other public improvements in exchange for deviations from City ordinances and standards. MDNR Comment Please update the shoreland PUD suitable area, open space, and density calculations to match those numbers provided in analyses completed after the submittal of the EAW. Response An updated Shoreland PUD Evaluation prepared by the project proponent has been submitted to the City and the MDNR. A recent revision of this updated Shoreland PUD Evaluation is included in Appendix B of this document. Further review of shoreland requirements will be conducted by the City as part of a future preliminary plat application review. MDNR Comment Please show the location of steep slopes on Figure 7, to help the reader determine the location of proposed lots, structures, and roads in relation to steep topographic areas. Response Figure 7 from the EAW has been revised to show shorelands and steep slopes. The result is shown in Figure 1. Slopes of at least 12 percent were identified from County soil survey mapping-, as suggested under Minnesota Rules Part 6120.2500, subpart 15b. As indicated in the EAW, slopes shown on soils mapping to be at least 12 percent cover about 20 percent of the project area. AMB Comment Only that land within shorelands is zoned in a way that requires connection to municipal sewer; the remainder of the land could use septic systems. Response The City's Shoreland Ordinance requires that the PUD be connected to municipal sewer. The Royal Golf Development PUD includes the golf course and all of the residential development, and therefore, all of it is required by the City's Shoreland Ordinance to be connected to municipal sewer. Furthermore, designing the project so that part of it is sewered and part of it unsewered is not practicable because it would conflict with local and regional policies that call for efficient use of public infrastructure such as municipal sewer and water services. 6 Response to Cormnents, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet 9.2. Land Use (Floodplains) VBWD Comment The VBWD recent modeling results and statistical analysis found the 1percent-annual-chance (100-year) flood level of Downs Lake to be 893.8. The VBWD will regulate to this flood level instead of the FEMA base flood elevation of 893.0. Structures will need to have their minimum floor elevations at least two feet higher than the adjacent water bodies' VBWD-adopted 100-year flood level, as required in VBWD Rule 5, Standard 2. Response Comment noted for the record. The project proponent will need to adjust the flood storage replacement and building elevations to meet VBWD requirements. As stated in the EAW, homes and streets will be elevated on fill above the floodplain to comply with the City's Flood Plain Ordinance and VBWD Rules. MDNR and AMB Comment The statement that the project minimizes effects on floodplains is misleading. The project includes 15.6 acre-feet of fill in the flood fringe to accommodate 15 residential lots and streets. There will be significant changes to the existing floodplain. What layout design modifications could be made to avoid the need for floodplain fill? How will floodplain storage outside of the PUD boundary be managed? We want to make sure proper authorities are committed to supervising this activity as streets and 15 homes could be flooded if not completed correctly. Response As stated in the EAW, new homes and infrastructure will be elevated above base flood elevations and protected from foreseeable flood impacts. Elevations of homes and streets will comply with the City's Flood Plain Management Ordinance, Valley Branch Watershed District Rules, and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) requirements. Flood storage replacement, including the flood storage on the golf course, will be provided within the PUD boundary, as the golf course is part of the PUD. The City's Flood Plain Management Ordinance allows fill within the flood fringe when flood storage replacement is provided. As stated in MDNR Floodplain Information Sheet No. 2 (2014): "FEMA and state regulations permit communities to allow the flood fringe to be obstructed and developed if standards (i.e., elevating and floodproofing structures) are met." The proposed project will be subject to approval by the City and Valley Branch Watershed District, and will require a Letter of Map Revision based on Fill (LOMR-F) from FEMA for properties constructed on fill and elevated above the floodplain elevation. 9.3. Land Use (Compatibility) MDNR Comment Describe the ways the PUD's design plan is compatible with surrounding land uses in more detail, as it relates to preservation of forest buffers and how they provide compatibility with surrounding land uses. Response Preservation of forested buffers contributes to the project's coinpatibility with surrounding land uses by helping to maintain the wooded character of existing roads and the relatively rural character of this part 7 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet of Lake Elmo, while allowing residential development consistent with regional plans and policies. Buffers along the western project boundary will provide for a potential greenway and wildlife corridor. The project design includes forested buffers intended to visually separate the proposed project from adjoining land uses, These buffers will provide for noise attenuation as well as visual screening. Proposed forested buffers are over 100 feet in several locations. The maximum width of buffers along the western property boundary is over 500 feet. 10.0. Geology, Soils, Landforms MDH Comment Consideration should be given to potential karst development and the possibility of sinkholes beneath stonnwater ponds and infiltration areas in the northeast part of the site, and whether any mitigation measures are needed. Response The stonnwater ponds proposed in the northeastern part of the site will be lined with two feet of low permeability clay. Infiltration areas will be positioned to intercept overflow from the stonnwater ponds. The lining of stonnwater retention ponds will minimize infiltration of water that could potentially reach carbonate bedrock. Based on preliminary plans and existing water well stratigraphy information for nearby off -site wells, the final elevation of the infiltration areas will allow for 28 to 74 feet of overburden between the base of the infiltration areas and bedrock. Maintaining this separation between infiltration areas and bedrock is expected to minimize the potential for sinkhole development. WCD Comment The WCD recommended compliance with NPDES pennit requirements, phasing grading to limit the scale and duration of exposed soils, preserving soils for infiltration, and deep -ripping compacted soils to promote infiltration. Response Comment noted for the record. The project will need to comply with NPDES pennit requirements. Phased grading, and preservation or decompaction of soils for infiltration will be considered and implemented where feasible and practicable. 11.0. Water Resources (Water Quality) MPCA Comment Specific in -water best management practices such as silt curtain, construction during low flow or winter conditions, cofferdam, or check -darns, etc. should be included in the EAW. Response The project is not expected to require specific in -water BMPs because it will not require work in open waters that discharge downstream. Other BMPs will prevent or reduce sediment discharge and turbidity during and after construction. Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet 11.1. Water Resources (Wetlands) MPCA Comment Please note that isolated wetlands remain under MPCA jurisdiction as waters of the state and mitigation may be required. Response The project team consulted with MPCA staff to discuss isolated wetlands, incidental wetlands, wetland impacts, and the regulation of waters of the state. Overall, the proposed project will directly affect five wetlands. Wetland 21 is proposed to be filled and replaced in compliance with the Minnesota Wetland Conservation Act ("WCA"). Four other wetlands (Wetlands 3, 4, 6 and 16) will be partially filled, excavated, and used as part of the project stormwater management system. All four of these wetlands were created incidentally during golf course construction and currently function to catch golf course runoff. These four wetlands are isolated and therefore they are not regulated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. After reviewing the history of Wetlands 3, 4, 6 and 16, MPCA staff determined that these basins are constructed features that are isolated and have limited environmental value. The MPCA has determined that mitigation will not be required to modify these basins and use them as part of the project stonnwater management system. The MPCA also recognized that the project will not require a Section 404 Letter of Permission, Regional General Permit, or Individual Pennit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, nor will the project require Section 401 Water Quality Certification from the MPCA. 11.2. Water Resources (Stormwater) W.Co. Comment The County will require drainage calculations and written conclusions that the project will not increase stonnwater volume or runoff rate to any County right-of-way. Response Comment noted for the record. WCD Comment VBWD infiltration guidelines reconunend retaining a 1.l-inch rainfall event onsite. WCD encourages use of bioretention, distribution of stonnwater systems in small drainage areas, and referring to the MPCA stonnwater manual for more information. Response The comments are noted for the record. As stated in the EAW, the project will need to comply with VBWD and City requirements. Implementation of bioretention and distributed stonnwater management systems will be considered where feasible and practicable, and where designed and approved for stormwater treatment and long-term maintenance purposes. AIVIB Comment 9 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal GoliClub Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet The commenter asked for supervision and mitigation oversight for stonnwater systems. Response The City, VBWD, and the MPCA have oversight responsibility for stonnwater management practices. MPCA regulations will require submission of a Stonnwater Pollution Prevention Plan to address erosion control and discharge of ninoff to surface waters. Stonnwater systems will be contained within drainage and utility easements that allow access by City staff for inspection and maintenance purposes. 11.3. Water Resources (Wastewater) AMB Comment Wastewater from the clubhouse and other commercial aspects was not included and no estimates were given as to the amounts. Response City water use and wastewater generation associated with the go1f course, clubhouse, and related facilities was discussed under Item 19 (Cumulative Potential Effects) of the EAW. The 18-hole golf course with a clubhouse, dining rooin, and bar and grill is expected to generate a maximum of 1,370 gallons of wastewater per day. The golf course and proposed residential development, combined, do not have potential for significant environmental effects on the regional wastewater management system. 12.0. Contamination / Hazardous Materials (Perfluorochemicals) MPCA and MDH Comments Lake Elmo, Horseshoe Lake, several small drainage ponds, and ditches within the golf course area and further downstream have been shown to be contaminated with perfluorochemicals (PFCs) at levels above EPA health advisory levels. The EPA recently lowered health advisory levels for PFCs. It should be noted that MDH now uses the new EPA health advisory levels of 70 ng/L for PFOS and PFOA when evaluating health risks. The development overlies a PFC groundwater plume that has impacted groundwater quality in the primary drinking water aquifers. Recent MDH sampling has detected PFCs at concentrations above the new EPA Lifetime Health Advisory levels of 70 parts per trillion for PFOS and PFOA in the surface water in Lake Elmo, the unnamed creek that discharges from Lake Elmo onto the project property, Horseshoe Lake, and the series of ditches and stonnwater ponds further downstream. It is not possible to accurately predict whether a well will remain clear of PFC contamination in the future. The section of the EAW on PFCs should be revised to reflect that PFCs above levels of health concern are present in the groundwater in this part of Lake Elmo. MDI1 recommends work with MDH, MPCA, and DNR to evaluate water quality in the existing wells and surface waters on the project property and determine appropriate use of these to mitigate for these potential impacts. Response The City recognizes that Perfluorochemicals (PFCs) are a family of manmade cheinicals that have been used for decades as an ingredient in products that resist heat, oil, stains, grease and water. PFCs were disposed of at the 3M Oakdale Disposal Site in Oakdale and the former Washington County Landfill in Lake Elmo between early 1950 and 1974. PFCs found in groundwater and surface waters on and near the 10 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet site include Perflurooctane-sulfonic acid (PFOS), Perfluroocatanoic acid (PFOA), and Perfluorobutryate (PFBA). The City understands that the MDH sampled surface water to assess PFC concentrations in the creek in the northwest part of the site and in Horseshoe Lake during September 2016. Some samples included PFC concentrations above EPA Health Advisory Limits (HAL), which are commonly referred to as "drinking water standards" (Table 2). The HALs include a margin of safety and identify the concentrations of PFOA and PFOS in drinking water at which adverse health effects are not anticipated to occur over a lifetime. Table 2.

They identify the concentration of PFOA and PFOS in drinking water at which adverse health effects are not anticioated to occur over a lifetime. The HALs fOr PFOA and PFOS are based on estimated exposure from drinking water ingestion, not from skin contact or breathing, These HALs 011 ly apply to exposure scenarios involving drinking water and cannot be used in identifying risk levels for ingestion of food sources, including: tish, meat produced from livestock that consumes contaminated water, or crops irrigated with contaminated water. 3Conclusions compare PFC concentrations in surface water samples to PFC Health Advisory Level (HALs; i.e., drinking water standards). EPA advisories indicate HALs for PFOA and PFOS are based on the estimated exposure from drinking water ingestion, not from skin contact or breathing. These HALs only apply to exposure scenarios involving drinking water and cannot be used in identifying risk levels for ingestion of food sources such as fish, meat produced from livestock that consumes contaminated water, or crops irrigated with contaminated water. The surface waters that contain PFC concentrations above drinking water standards will be used primarily as visual and natural amenities and will not be used for drinking water. These surface waters do not have PFC concentrations above levels considered safe for non -consumptive uses. The presence of PFCs in the groundwater of Lake Elmo and other nearby suburbs is a pre-existing condition and the project does not have potential for significant environmental effects in relation to PFC-contaminated groundwater and surface water. The recently revised EPA HALs have been noted and are specific to drinking water. Lake Elmo, Horseshoe Lake and the small drainage ponds and ditches within and downstream of the golf course are not intended to be used as drinking water. The MDH has stated that exposure to PFCs through 11 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet swimming and bathing is not a concern (MDH PFCs and Health, May 20, 2016). PFCs are poorly absorbed through skin and incidental ingestion of surface water while swimming will not result in a significant exposure. The MDH determined through a September 2014 study that the health benefits provided by growing and eating produce greatly outweigh any potential risk from low levels of PFBA or other PFCs in produce. Based on this infonnation and the proposal to obtain drinking water for the project through connection to the City of Lake Elmo municipal water supply, substantial adverse environmental effects are not an ticipated. PFCs above EPA HALs have been identified in the primary drinking water aquifers in the east metro area, including the area surrounding the EAW property. To date, sampling of three onsite water wells completed in the Prairie du Chien aquifer has not identified concentrations of contaminants above drinking water standards. However, PFC concentrations in Horseshoe Lake and the watercourse leading onto the site have been found to exceed EPA HALs and will not be used for drinking water. A summary of data collected from the onsite water wells and surface waters, compared to MDH and EPA drinking water standards, is provided in Appendix C. MDH provided data from surface water samples collected from Horseshoe Lake and a creek discharging from Lake Eltno. The PFOS concentrations in all four samples exceed the surface water criteria for fish consumption and combined fish consumption and drinking water. Surface water is not intended to be used for drinking and access to Horseshoe Lake for fishing purposes will be limited. There are no current or proposed public access points on the Royal Golf Club property, none of the proposed residential lots extend to the lake, and the golf course provides a buffer between proposed residential lots and the lake. These factors will help limit the potential use of Horseshoe Lake for recreational fishing. The MINI website states that bathing, swimming and using this water for irrigation of crops is not a health concern. The City and the project proponent recognize that the EPA Health Advisory Level for PFOS and PFOA apply to concentrations of these two chemicals combined in drinking water rather than irrigation or stonnwater. As discussed in the EAW, the residential development will connect to the City water supply and will not be served by private wells. Proposed residential lots will not extend to the shore of Horseshoe Lake and the golf course will provide a buffer between proposed residential uses and the lakeshore, reducing the potential for the lake to be accessed for fishing. In addition, a conservation easement and natural vegetation buffer proposed along the shore of Horseshoe Lake will limit the potential for direct contact with lake water. The project proponent invites the MDH to visit the golf course clubhouse and sample the drinking water. If necessary, appropriate precautions will be implemented to remove PFCs from golf course drinking water or provide an alternative drinking water supply until the City water connection is completed. MPCA and MDH Comments MPCA It appears that the golf course will continue to use groundwater for potable, irrigation, fire protection, and maintenance use. It is important to note that the location of this development lies within known areas of aquifer contamination. Care should be exercised when using groundwater in this region for potable and irrigation purposes. Care should be exercised when using surface water from these areas for irrigation purposes so as to minimize the potential for human and environmental exposure to these contaminants. 12 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet MDH Use of surface water or groundwater at the project site should be carefully managed to avoid human exposure and prevent further spreading of the contamination. MDI-1 further recommends landscaping options be implemented to create significant buffers in order to restrict public access to Horseshoe Lake. Response The fonner 27-hole golf course required 20 million gallons of water for irrigation in 2015, of which 1.5 million (or 7.5 percent) was obtained from groundwater. The new golf course owners have worked with the University of Minnesota Extension Office to identify suitable drought -resistant grasses that require one-third less water for irrigation and have installed a state-of-the-art irrigation and weather system to measure moisture and forecast precipitation, which will further reduce the amount of water required for irrigation. These management practices, together with the re -designed and smaller golf course, have resulted in future irrigation water projection needs that. will be 35 percent to 66 percent less than in 2015. Using these projections, and assuming precipitation rates are similar to 2015, it may not be necessary to use any groundwater for irrigation. Thus, the use of groundwater for irrigation is expected to have a miniinal impact on groundwater flow direction or PFC plume migration. Furthermore, the concentration of PFCs identified in groundwater are significantly less than those observed in surface water discharging from Lake Elmo onto the site and do not exceed current drinking water standards. Water that exceeds drinking water criteria for PFC discharges from Lake Elmo and enters the site through a drainageway and surface water ponds. Water is occasionally diverted from this drainageway to an onsite pond that has been used in the past and will continue to be used for golf course irrigation purposes. While this process has and will continue to result in the application of PFC-contaminated water onto irrigated portions of the golf course, the volume of water used will be substantially reduced relative to existing conditions as previously indicated. Furthennore, the irrigation water is not intended for use as a drinking water source; there will be no public access to spigots to allow for such use; the actual irrigated portion of the course is limited and confined to the areas of arid surrounding greens, fairways and tee boxes, which results in a small area, relative to the entire property, that would be impacted; and, irrigation will take place at night when the golf course is closed, which prevents exposure through dermal contact. Best management practices, including drought resistant plants and an upgraded irrigation system, will result in a significant reduction in the amount of water required for irrigation and there will be little to no potential for runoff of excess irrigation water. In the event that runoff does occur, it will flow to the same surface water chain from which it was obtained at concentrations that would be the same or similar to the source water. Lastly, the application of this contaminated water on the golf course will have a positive effect for the watershed, as it will result in reduced volume of PFC-impacted water ultimately discharging to the St, Croix River. 12.1. Contamination / Hazardous Materials (Contaminated Soils) 13 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet MPCA Comment The EAW does not discuss the handling of soil contaminated with materials other than agricultural chemicals. The MPCA recommends entering the site into the MPCA Brownfield Program to provide regulatory oversight for non-agricultural contamination. Response A Phase I Environmental Site Assessment completed for the project did not identify Recognized Environmental Conditions in the proposed development area, with the exception of agricultural chemical use. In addition, a Phase II Investigation of the property did not identify the presence of non-agricultural chemicals at concentrations above regulatory screening limits. Because the application of agricultural chemicals in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations does not constitute a release, assurance letters for such agricultural chemicals are not available through the MPCA's Brownfield Program. The EAW property was enrolled in the Minnesota Department of Agriculture's Voluntary Investigation and Cleanup program and remediation of contaminated areas was completed in accordance with an approved Response Action Plan and Construction Contingency Plan. According to the Construction Contingency Plan, the Minnesota Duty Officer will be notified inunediately if other environmental issues are identified during construction. Follow-up coordination with the MPCA has indicated it is not appropriate to enroll the site in the MPCA's voluntary Brownfield Program. MPCA staff have indicated that they would not issue a No Association Determination for PFC contamination to the project proponent. Although an Offsite Source Determination could be obtained, such a determination would provide little benefit because a responsible party has been identified and source areas are known to be located offsite. MDH and MA Comment MDH assumes MPCA ‘vill be consulted in the design and construction of the Regulated Soil Management Area to ensure it provides long-term encapsulation of these soils to prevent exposures. What is the potential impact to local residential groundwater of managing excavated hazardous soils onsite? What is the impervious banier and bow has it minimized impacts of these hazards? Response Because the Regulated Soil Management Area was constructed to contain agricultural chemicals that were used on the golf course, its design was reviewed and approved by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture with guidance from MPCA. The design included a sloped surface covered with a low- penneability soil to promote drainage away from and reduce infiltration and leaching through the contaminated soil. A deed restriction will be placed on the Regulated Soil Management Area as part of the approval process for the area. The deed restriction will specify an inspection schedule and maintenance/repair requirements that will be approved by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture. The Regulated Soil Management Area has been designed to minimize risks to groundwater and the public. 12.2. Contamination / Hazardous Materials (Disposal Area) MPCA and MDII Comment The Investigation History refers to a "Possible on -site disposal area that was later confirmed to be located on the adjoining property to the southeast..." Please clarify if the disposal area has been reported to the MPCA or State Duty Officer. Please provide the location of the disposal area. The location is not shown 14 Response to Comments. Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet on any figures and no information is provided regarding this disposal area and its proximity to the project property. Response The disposal area is located offsite, about 900 feet east of the project boundary. The lat/long coordinates of the disposal pile are approximately 44.964611, -92.863041. The included a small pile of roof shingles, approximately 15 aerosol cans and seine plastic drainage tubing that presented no apparent contamination concerns except for potential asbestos in the roofing materials. The disposal area was not reported to the MPCA or the State Duty Officer because it did not constitute an emergency, serious accident, hazardous material incident, or petroleum spill, and it was not under the control of the project proponent. The owner of the property that includes the disposal area will be notified of the concern related to the potential for asbestos in the roofing materials. 12.3. Contamination / Hazardous Materials (Pipelines) MPCA Comment Contact the Office of Pipeline Safety to determine appropriate setbacks from the natural gas pipeline that crosses the site. Response As stated in the EAW, the project proponent has proposed a 150-foot-wide easement to encompass this pipeline route. The project proponent contacted the Office of Pipeline Safety, and, at their suggestion, the project team will contact the pipeline operator to confirm that the easement width is acceptable arid to determine appropriate setbacks. 13.0. Fish, Wildlife, Ecological Resources WCD Comment Buckthorn removal will minimize the spread of this restricted noxious weed and visual barriers could be replanted to native trees and shrubs. Response The project proponent has not yet determined the extent of buckthorn removal to be implemented. Open space and greenway planning will be considered and advanced in association with the Preliminary Plat/PUD. Native vegetation plantings will be considered in where appropriate and practicable. AMB Comment What agency will oversee Blanding's turtle mitigation measures and follow through to ensure implementation? Response To minimize potential adverse effects on turtles and their mobility, the project will avoid most wetlands, implement stringent sediment and erosion controls, consider the use of sunnountable curbs on roadways, and consider use of erosion control materials constructed of organic fibers rather than plastic. Mitigation practices will be implemented to the extent that it can reasonably and practicably integrated into 15 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and -Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet construction plans and specifications. Construction will be overseen by the City, VBWD, and other local and state agencies. 14.0. Historic Properties SHPO Comment The developer hired a cultural resources consultant to conduct a Phase I Archaeological Survey prior to development. SHPO looks forward to receiving and reviewing the results of the survey. Response The Phase 1 Archaeological Survey was complete and submitted to SHPO. The survey found two small archaeological sites that were not considered potentially eligible for the national register. No further archaeological work was recommended. Effects on intact archaeological resources are not anticipated. 15.0. Visual MA Comment The proposal needs to address light pollution and its impact on the regional ecosystem and wildlife. Response Post -development intensity of artificial lighting will be typical of suburban residential development and less than typical commercial developments. Consequently, detailed assessment of light pollution is not necessary and does not pose the potential for significant environmental effects. The EAW Guidelines (Minnesota EQB 2013) suggest that EAWs address "non -routine impacts that may be due to the emission of light or a 'visual nuisance' caused by the project during construction or operation." Examples of such non -routine impacts include "intense light causing a glare problem" and "lights on tall communication towers intruding on the visual integrity of a scenic vista." The proposed project does not include these types of intense lighting. 17.0. Noise AMB Comment What provision is being made so the surrounding landowners are allowed their rightful peace and quiet'? I would like to suggest all noise generating equipment may only be operated from 8 AM to 5 PM and only Monday to Friday. Response As stated in the EAW, noise levels are expected to be at or near existing levels after construction is complete. Noise levels during construction will vary considerably. Noise generated by construction equipment and residential building construction will be limited primarily to daylight hours when noise levels are typically high compared to night. Construction noise will be regulated according to the City's Noise Ordinance. Additional noise mitigation measures will be considered if construction noise becomes problematical. 18.0. Transportation Met C Comment 16 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet Traffic forecasts by Transportation Analysis Zone (TAZ) are not discussed in the EAW. Metropolitan Council has draft TAZ forecasts for 2040 available for local government review. The proposed development fits within the community total forecast and no change is needed. Response Comment noted for the record. W.Co. Comment It should be noted that the County's 5 Year CIP includes no programmed improvements for the CSAH 10/Lake Elmo Avenue intersection. Response Comment noted for the record. W.Co. Comment There should be further conversations with the County on the current status of the identified Regional Trail Corridor (Washington County Comprehensive Plan 2030) along CSAII 17/Lake Elmo Avenue. Response Comment noted for the record. W.Co. Comment The future clubhouse/banquet facility and the commercial public use golf course traffic was not included in the traffic analysis. Please clarify how you will incorporate this expected increase in use into the traffic study. Response Golf course traffic was discussed under Item 19 (Cumulative Potential Effects) and addressed in Appendix G (Traffic Impact Study) of the EAW. The Traffic Impact Study noted that the existing golf course was not in operation at the time of the turning movement counts. As a result, the site traffic forecasting included the residential units and the golf course. The traffic forecast was based on the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 9th Edition (2012) single-family detached housing and golf course land uses. The Trip Generation Manual describes the golf course land use as including "9-, 18-, 27-, and 36-hole municipal courses. Some sites may also have driving ranges and clubhouses with a pro shop, restaurant, lounge, and banquet facilities." Thus, the trip generation numbers provided in the Traffic Impact Study account for the future clubhouse/banquet facility as well as the golf course. Table 3 below shows the total trip generation used in the traffic study, which accounts for both land uses. A similar table is also provided in the appendix of the Traffic Impact Study.

Traffic data collected locally by Spack Consultants suggests the development may generate slightly lower volumes than used in the study. HI -IA Comment Baseline traffic volumes may be underestimated due to golf course and school closure at the time. Response The collected 2016 volumes were compared against previous counts in the area taken in May of 2013 for the Manning Avenue Corridor Management and Safety Improvement Project and MnDOT's Official AADT Counts. This comparison showed similar traffic volumes between the counts, suggesting that construction in the area and the lack of school traffic had a minimal effect on the overall volume of traffic on the study roadways. The Manning Avenue/Manning Trail intersection was included in both studies reviewed in estimating baseline traffic volumes. The 2013 Manning Avenue Study listed a total traffic volume of 1,287 vehicles during the p.m. peak hour. The traffic volumes collected in 2016 resulted in a total traffic volume of 1,300 vehicles during the p.m. peak hour. In addition, the MnDOT traffic counts from 20 15 show an average daily traffic volume of 11,300 vehicles per day, compared to the daily volume of approximately 13,800 vehicles per day from 2016 volumes. The Traffic Impact Study noted the existing golf course was not in operation at the time of the study's traffic counts. Therefore, traffic for the proposed golf course was estimated as part of the overall traffic associated with the proposed development and studied accordingly. Because the existing golf course was closed during data collection, trip generation was calculated in the Traffic Impact Study to forecast the traffic that will be generated by the proposed golf course. This trip generation, which is based on ITE rates previously discussed, includes the ancillary facilities typically included with golf courses, such as clubhouses and banquet facilities. These trips were added to the residential development trip generation, resulting with a comprehensive total of new trips caused by both the proposed golf course and the residential development. Table 3, above, shows the trip generation of both the residential and golf course land uses, as well as the total used in the study. The results of the study forecast satisfactory operations into the future. A slight increase in the initial traffic volumes would not significantly affect the predicted results of acceptable operations. The City will continue to review the traffic study during the PUD/preliminary plat process and may require improvements as necessary. 18 Response to Comments, _Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet AMB Comment I disagree with the Traffic Impact Study conclusion that the proposed project will have minimal effects on adjacent public roads and that nearby intersections will continue to operate at an overall Level of Service (LOS) A. A proper study needs to be completed. Response The Traffic Impact Study followed standard procedures for this type of analysis, using common processes and analyses techniques. A more detailed response would require comments on specific parts of the traffic study that raise concerns or seem incorrect in ways that would cause conclusions to be incorrect. Specific traffic study comments identified above are addressed in detail. The golf course and related facilities were included in the Traffic Impact Study, as previously discussed and shown under the response to Washington County (W.Co.), Table 3, and the response to Homestead Homeowners Assn. (HHA)'s comment, above. The Traffic Impact Study assumed full development of the proposed site and predicted traffic volumes to the year 2030, accounting for additional growth in the area. Partial development was not studied. The Traffic Impact Study discussed the project site's internal roadways and access to the existing public roads. As proposed, the housing on the east side of the golf course has one access to Manning Trail North. A second access could be provided to 20' Street N, and may be required with the preliminary plat. The preference for this second access is based on the City's policy regarding cul-de-sac roads. The second access does not affect the results of the Traffic Impact Study. The internal roadways proposed for the residential component do not all connect, resulting in separate areas with separate access points to external roadways. A resident would not be able to drive between all residential components and/or the golf course without travelling on the existing public roads. For example, a resident on the east side of the golf course would have direct access to Manning Trail North, and would need to use this road to reach any other area, regardless of destination. This affects the traffic volume on the internal roads and the locations where drivers will access the existing public roads. The Traffic Impact Study addressed travel patterns for the study roadways and intersections based on this proposed internal roadway layout and external roadway access points. 19.0. Cumulative Potential Effects AMB Comment The commercial aspect of the development, the golf course, clubhouse, storage area, sport complex, and driving range were not part of the study. These commercial aspects of the development will add to the traffic, congestion, water runoff, and have a strong environmental impact on the area. Response The commercial aspect of the development is accessory to the public use of the golf course and facilities. The traffic and water use of the golf course, clubhouse, and related facilities were assessed under Item 19 (Cumulative Potential Effects) of the EAW. Golf course traffic was also addressed in Appendix G of the EAW (i.e., the Traffic Impact Study). See the response to Washington County, above, for more information on traffic. The golf course will be rehabilitated and reduced from 27 to 18 holes. The relatively small amount of impervious surface area and the abundant open space within the golf course indicates that golf course rehabilitation is unlikely to adversely affect runoff quantity and quality. The 19 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision -- The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet sports complex will be converted to residential use and effects of this conversion were addressed throughout the EAW. Intensification of the clubhouse or related facilities will trigger a conditional use permit, and such golf course amenities would be evaluated by the City again during the conditional use pennit review process. 20.0. Other Environmental Effects HHA Comment An EIS might be required if the golf course is developed to become residential use. Response The golf course is not proposed to be re -guided or re -zoned, and there is no basis to expect that it will be converted to residential use. Any proposed future residential use of the golf course would require a comprehensive land use plan amendment and rezoning. FINDINGS OF FACT Project Description Proposed Project The Royal Golf Club Residential Development is proposed on 222 acres of privately -owned land. The project includes 292 single-family residential lots that will be served by municipal utilities. The project will involve installation of public and private infrastructure, grading, stonnwater ponding, and open space preservation. The residential development is part of the overall Royal Golf Club area, which covers 477 acres and was previously known as Tartan Park. Tartan Park was a 27-hole golf course, clubhouse, and sports complex with wetlands and open space. The existing 27-hole golf course will be rehabilitated as an 18-hole golf course. The rest of the golf course, sports complex, and some of the open space will be converted to residential use. The proposed residential project has a net density of about 1.5 units per acre and will preserve about 90.8 acres as private open space. Additional open space may be identified for preservation during the preliminary plat/PUD review process. Shoreland overlay districts of five public waters cover about 48 percent of the project area (107 acres), and will minimally meet the shoreland requirement of 50 percent open space protected by an easement. The City is working with the project proponent to review alternative designs in the interest of balancing multiple interests. These interests include project needs, environmental compliance, land use consistency, public services, and safety. While these factors may influence the project as it proceeds toward final design, environmental effects are expected to be lessened during routine design changes that occur as part of the project review and approval process. Site Description and Existing Conditions The Residential Development area includes 198 acres of useable land and 24 acres of regulated wetlands and public waters. The usable area includes 109 acres of golf course and sports complex, 77 acres of woodland, 10 acres of roads and parking, and two acres of ponds. About 20 percent of the area has slopes of 12 percent or greater. 20 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision - The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet Decision Regarding the Potential for Significant Environmental Effects Minnesota Rules Part 4410.1700, subpart 7 lists four criteria that shall be considered in deciding whether a project has the potential for significant environmental effects. Those criteria and the City's findings are presented below. A. Type, Extent, and Reversibility of Environmental Effects Minnesota Rules Part 4410.1700, subpart 7 (A) indicates the first factor that the City must consider is the "type, extent, and reversibility of environmental effects." The City's findings are set forth below. 1. Cover Types. The project will convert about two acres of ponds, 41 acres of woodland, and 109 acres of golf course and sports complex to residential homes, lawns, open spaces, streets, and stonnwater systems. The project includes 90.8 acres of private open space. The project will preserve about 36 acres of woodland and 24 acres of protected wetlands. Wildlife corridors exist along the west side of the site and cross the site from northwest to southeast. 2. Shorelands. The project meets the minimum requirements for allowable base densities under Minnesota shoreland rules and PUD shoreland evaluation methods, and includes a minimum of 50 percent open space protected by easement. Due to drainage divides, only about 58 acres of the 107 acres of shoreland on the site drain directly to shoreland waters. The open spaces, buffers, and drainage divides will help minimize effects of shoreland development on nearby N,va t ers. 3. Floodplains. The project is designed to compensate for effects on floodplains and is not expected to diminish the capacity of the project area to accommodate flooding. The project is expected to involve about 10 to 20 acre-feet of fill in the flood fringes of Downs Lake and Lake Rose. The project will include flood storage replacement and homes and infrastructure will be elevated above flood elevations as required by the City and the VBWD. The project will require a Letter of Map Revision based on Fill (LOMR-F) for properties constructed on fill and elevated above the floodplain. 4, Land Use. The proposed project is compatible with the proposed land use, zoning, and surrounding land uses. The project will require a Comprehensive Plan Amendment to guide the residential development area with a net density of 1.5-2.49 units/acre. The residential area will be rezoned from PF — Public and Quasi -Public Open Space to Golf Course Community/Planned Unit Development, which is a newly proposed zoning district. 5. Geology and Soils. Residential development grading operations are expected to affect about 135 to 145 acres and involve movement of about 750,000 to 1,000,000 cubic yards of soil to construct streets, residential building pads, and stonnwater ponds. Sinkholes are known to occur in the greater project area and the project area underlain by carbonate bedrock. Final elevations of infiltration areas will be about 25 to 75 feet above bedrock. Maintaining this separation between infiltration areas and bedrock is expected to minimize the potential for sinkhole development. 6. Water Quality. Ultimately, compliance with City, VBWD, NPDES, and MPCA requirements will minimize and mitigate potential adverse effects on receiving waters. Project development will change the land use from golf course, woodland, and sports complex to single-family residential use and open space. This land use change is expected to have mixed effects on runoff water volume and quality. Stonnwater rate and volume controls that comply with City and 21 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet VBWD requirements will limit increases in runoff volume and associated pollutant transport. Erosion control plans will be reviewed and accepted by the City and the VBWD prior to project construction. Potential adverse effects from construction -related sediment and erosion on water quality will be minimized by implementation of sediment control BMPs. 7. Wetlands and Surface Waters. The project will directly affect five wetlands. Wetland 21 covers less than 0.1 acre and is proposed to be filled and replaced in compliance with the WCA. Four other wetlands (Wetlands 3, 4, 6 and 16) will be partially filled, excavated, and used as part of the project stormwater system. These four wetlands were created incidentally during golf course construction, currently catch golf course runoff, and are isolated and incidental. Although they are waters of the state, MPCA staff have determined that they are constructed features, have limited environmental value, and that mitigation will not be required. 8. Wastewater. The project is expected to produce normal domestic wastewater. This wastewater is expected to be typical of residential developments. The project will not include industrial wastewater production or onsite wastewater treatment. The residential project is expected to generate about 80,000 gallons of wastewater per day. The 18-hole golf course, clubhouse, dining room, and bar and grill are predicted to generate a maximum of 1,370 gallons of wastewater per day. The City and Metropolitan Council have planned for increased capacity to convey and treat sanitary wastewater. The proposed project will require three additional sanitary sewer lift stations to support the development. One of these lift stations, along with its force main pipe, will be considered temporary infrastructure. 9. Hazardous Materials. The MDH sampled surface water to assess PFC concentrations in the creek and in Horseshoe Lake during September 2016. Some samples included PFC concentrations above EPA Health Advisory Limits (HAL), which are commonly referred to as "drinking water standards." The HALs only apply to exposure scenarios involving drinking water and cannot be used in identifying risk levels for ingestion of food sources such as fish, meat produced from livestock that consumes contaminated water, or crops irrigated with contaminated water. The surface waters that contain PFC concentrations above drinking water standards will not be used for drinking water. Surface water is not intended to be used for drinking and access to Horseshoe Lake for fishing purposes will be limited. The MDH website states that bathing, swimming and using this water for irrigation of crops is not a health concern. If necessary, appropriate precautions will be implemented to remove PFCs from golf course drinking water or provide an alternative drinking water supply until the municipal water connection is completed„ A Phase II investigation determined that soil from 26 golf course greens, two tee boxes, one fairway, and one soil storage area required remediation. Remediation has been underway and contaminated soil is managed on a Regulated Soil Management Area (RSMA) located on the golf course. The RSMA has been designed to minimize risks to groundwater and the public. The design was reviewed and approved by the Minnesota Department of Agriculture with guidance from MPCA. 10. Ecological Resources. The project will convert golf course, sports complex, woodland, and ponds to residential land uses, including roads, homes, lawns, stormwater ponding, and open space. Habitat conversion is expected affect the number and type of wildlife species in the area, but changes in wildlife abundance are not expected to be regionally significant. Measures to minimize adverse effects on wildlife include the preservation of about 36 acres of woodland and 77 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet 24 acres of wetlands/waters, creation of stonnwater ponds and infiltration areas, and protection of open spaces. 11. Historic Resources. The Phase 1 Archaeological Survey was complete and submitted to SHPO. The survey found two small archaeological sites that were not considered potentially eligible for the national register. No further archaeological work was recommended. Effects on intact archaeological resources are not anticipated. P. Visual Resources, Project development is expected to result in routine effects on visual resources. There are no scenic views or vistas located on or adjacent to the project area. The project does include intense lights that may cause glare or lights on tall towers. Post - development artificial lighting will be typical of suburban residential development and less than typically included in commercial developments. 13. Noise. Noise levels are expected to be at or near existing levels after construction is complete. Noise levels during construction will vary considerably. Noise generated by construction equipment and residential building construction will be limited primarily to daylight hours when noise levels are typically high compared to night and regulated through the City's Noise Ordinance. 14. Transportation. The traffic that will be generated by the proposed project does not raise capacity or safety concerns. Traffic generated by the project will have little effect on the regional transportation system. Intersections surrounding the site will continue to operate at acceptable levels of service with the addition of traffic generated by the proposed project. B. Cumulative Potential Effects Minnesota Rules Part 4410.1700, subpart 7 (B) indicates the second factor the City must consider is the "whether the cumulative potential effect is significant; whether the contribution from the project is significant when viewed in connection with other contributions to the cumulative potential effect; the degree to which the project complies with approved mitigation ineasures specifically designed to address the cumulative potential effect; and the efforts of the proposer to minimize the contributions from the project." The City's findings are set forth below. Projects typically combine to produce cumulative effects on City resources like water and wastewater treatment. The City has planned for growth and increased capacity to address these cumulative effects. The proposed project will implement approved mitigation measures and be consistent with land use policies for areas served by City sewer and water. Effects of the project on natural resources are not likely to combine with effects of other projects in a manner that will results in significant environmental effects. Stonnwater regulations administered by multiple agencies and erosion and water quality BMPs are expected to minimize cumulative effects of post -development runoff on downstream waters. The policies and regulations set forth by the City, the VBWD, and other government agencies provide the impetus for other mitigation measures discussed throughout this EAW. These mitigation measures will help ensure that cumulative environmental effects are minimized, C. Extent to Which the Environmental Effects are Subject to Mitigation 23 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet Minnesota Rules Part 4410.1700, subpart 7 (C) indicates the third factor the City rnust consider is the "extent to which the environmental effects are subject to mitigation by ongoing public regulatory authority." The City's findings are set forth below. Environmental effects on cover types, shorelands, floodplains, water quality, and traffic are subject to additional approvals and/or mitigation through requirements of local, state, and federal regulations, ordinances, management plans, and permitting processes. The following permits and approvals are required for the project addressed under the EAW and these permitting and approval processes will provide additional opportunity to require mitigation. Potential environmental effects associated with this project will be mitigated in accordance with applicable rules and regulations. The City therefore finds that potential environmental effects of the project are less than significant and "subject to mitigation by ongoing public regulatory authority." Table 4.

Army Corps of Wetland Delineation Concurrence / Engineers Jurisdictional Determination Status Approved D. Extent to Which Environmental Effects can be Anticipated and Controlled Minnesota Rules Part 4410.1700, subpart 7 (D) indicates the final factor the City must consider is the "extent to which environmental effects can be anticipated and controlled as a result of other environmental studies undertaken by public agencies or the project proposer, including other EISs." The City's findings are set forth below. 1. The proposed project design, plans, EAW, related studies, and mitigation measures apply knowledge, approaches, standards, and best management practices gained from previous experience and projects that have, in general, successfully mitigated potential offsite environmental effects. 2. The EAW, in conjunction with this document, contains or references the known studies that provide information or guidance regarding environmental effects that can be anticipated and controlled. 3. Larger projects, studied under Alternative Urban Areawide Reviews (AUARs) as a substitute for an EIS, have included studies and mitigation measures comparable to those included in this EAW. 4. There are no elements of the proposed project that pose the potential for significant environmental effects that cannot be addressed by the project design, assessment, permitting and development processes and by ensuring conformance with regional and local plans. 5. The environmental effects of this development can be anticipated and controlled by the City's PUD/preliminary plat application and regulatory processes 6. Considering the results of environmental review and permitting processes for similar projects, the City finds that the environmental effects of the project can be adequately anticipated and controlled. Based on the EAW, comments received from agencies arid individuals, the responses to comments, and the criteria above, the City finds that The Royal Golf Club Residential Development does not have the potential for significant environmental effects and does not require the preparation of an EIS. RECORD OF DECISION Based on the information contained in the EAW, the written comments received and the responses to those comments, and the findings of fact, the City of Lake Elmo, the RGU for this environmental review, has reached the following conclusions: 1. The EAW and this Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision document, and related documentation for the project were prepared in compliance with the procedures set forth by Minnesota Rules Parts 4410.1000 to 4410.1700 and the Minnesota Environmental Quality Board. 25 Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision — The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet 2. The EAW and this Response to Cominents, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision document and related documentation for the project have satisfactorily addressed all of the issues for Nvhich existing information could have been reasonably obtained. 3. The project proposed does not meet any of the mandatory EIS thresholds contained in Minnesota Rules Part 4410.4400. 4. The project does not have the potential for significant environmental effects based upon the above findings of fact and the evaluation of the criteria per Minnesota Rules Part 4410.1700, subpart 7 as set forth above. 5. Pursuant to Minnesota Rules 4410.1700, subpart 5, a copy of this Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision is being provided, within five days to all persons on the Minnesota Environmental Quality Board distribution list, the persons commenting on the EAW, and to persons who requested a copy. This Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision will also be made available on the City of Lake Elmo's web site. The City makes a Negative Declaration and does not require the development of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for this project. City Council Resolution 2017- declaring a negative declaration of need for an EIS is attached as part of this document. 26 Figure 1 Shorelands, Floodplains, and Steep Slopes [to be attached] Appendix A en Comments Sub fitted to the City of Lake Elmo [to be attached] Appendix B Updated Shoreland PUD Evaluation [to be attached] Appendix C Comparison of Detected PFC Levels to Health Advisory Limits [to be attached] November I).2Olh Stephen Wcomun,Planning Director City ofLake Elmo 380OLaverne Avenue North Lukc2|mo, 84N 55042 : City ofLake Elmo Royal Golf Club Residential Development Environmental Assessment Worksbmg(EAW) Metropolitan Council Review No.2|6]0') Metropolitan Council District No. 12 Dear Mr. Wensman: The Metropolitan Council received the EAW for the Royal GolfClub Residential Development projectin the City o[Lake Elmo onOctober 21,20]0,The proposed project islocated 2222gross acres located bctvxccn 10" Street North and 20"' Street North, and bounded by Manning Trail on the East and by Lake Elmo Avenue on the west.

Regarding matters for which the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has regulatory responsibility and other interests, the K4P[Astaff has the following comments for your consideration. Permits and Approval Required (Item 8} The table inthis section of the EAW does not include the MPCA 401 Water Quality Certification.

It appears that the golf course will continue to use groundwater for potable, irrigation, fire protection, and maintenance use, It is important to note that the location of this development lies within known areas of aquifer contamination. The development overlies a perfluorochemical groundwater plume that has impacted groundwater quality in each of the primary drinking water aquifers present. Recent groundwater monitoring inthe area ofHorseshoe Lake has indicated the presence of perfluorochemicals at levels in excess of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) health advisory levels, Less than 1 mile to the north and east of the development lies the Trichloroethene (TCE) groundwater plume associated with the Baytown Township Groundwater Plume Site. The TCE plume has impacted groundwater quality in each of the primary drinking water aquifers present. Mr. StephenVVenonan Page November 23.ZO16 Care should beexercised when using groundwater inthis region for potable and irrigation purposes. The EPA recently issued significantly lower health advisory levels for several perfluorinated substances. Because the specific configuration of the groundwater plumes in the area are not well understood and likely vary over time, itisnot possible tuaccurately predict whether a well that has been clear of contamination in the past will remain clear of contamination inthe future. Lake Elmo, Horseshoe Lake, several small drainage ponds, and ditches within the golf course area and further downstream have been shown to be contaminated with perfluorochernicals at levels in excess of EPA health advisory levels. Care should be exercised when using surface water from these areas for irrigation purposes so as to minimize the potential for human and environmental exposure to these contaminants. Contamination/Hazardous Mate 6aIs/Wastes (Item 12) This section refers to a natural gas pipeline that runs across part of the site. The Project proposer should contact the Office of Pipeline Safety to determine the appropriate setbacks for this structure. The Investigation History refers to a "Possible on -site disposal area that was later confirmed to be located onthe adjoining property tothe southeast—" This disposal area isnot identified onany maps. Please clarify if the disposal area has been reported to the MPCAor State Duty Officer. Please provide the location nfthe disposal area, The section regarding "PFCs and Area Groundwater Contamination" does not capture the potential risks posed by groundwater contaminated by the PFC sources. The plume of groundwater contaminated with perfluorochernicals appears to extend beneath the site and further toward the east, The golf course well sampling results referred to do not comply with routine compliance sample results reporting protocols. There is no indication regarding any quality control aspects of the results. |fthis data is intended to be used for this report, please provide an adequate presentation of the data, A summary table deep within an appendix is not an appropriate presentation of such data. Assuming that this is an oversight, the results do indicate that there are a number ofperf|uorochemica|s present inthe samples. However, the regulatory limits referred to are no longer current. The EPA issued revised drinking water criteria in 20I6. The EAW does not discuss how soil contaminated with materials other than agricultural chemicals will be handled. The MPCA recommends that the site be entered into the MPCA Brownfield Program (formerly called the Voluntary Investigation and Cleanup Program) in order to provide regulatory oversight with regard to non-agricultural related contamination issues. Accidental spills or releases from on'siteequipment, buried rubble, municipal solid waste, buried demolition waste, etc. are situations regulated by the MPCA. The Brownfield Program provides technical assistance and issuance of various liability assurance letters to promote the investigation, cleanup, and redevelopment ofproperty that is contaminated with petroleum and/or hazardous substances.

General Comments To date, MNDNR has provided formal comments on the concept PUD to the City of Lake Elmo and informal comments to the developer on the PUD density analysis. These comments have been based on the assumption that the PUD will have City water and sewer. MNDNR will formally review the preliminary PUD and plat when these are submitted to the City, to determine if they meet the PUD provisions in State shoreland rules. MNDNR review of shoreland PUDs looks for consistency with the density allowances, setbacks, and height as well as a variety of more subjective performance standards dealing with protection of vegetation and sensitive slopes. While we look for compliance with the numerical standards, we recognize that good environmental design cannot be reduced to compliance with a set of numbers. The shoreland PUD standards were part of the 1989 State shoreland rules and were an early fonn of conservation design regulations. A lot has been learned about conservation design since 1989 and many communities in Minnesota have adopted different shoreland PUD standards to limit density, ensure better natural resource/open space protection, and provide for greater alignment with the community's vision. MNDNR has concerns on the design of the Royal Golf Club Residential PUD because the proposed development is too dense for the natural resources on the site. In making this evaluation, MNDNR is considering overall project suitability by looking at how the design impacts the existing natural environment on the site. From our perspective, a development is not suitable if it is consuming, areas of high quality vegetation and areas with slopes greater than 12 percent (which MNDNR considers steep slopes). Ultimately, however, it is up to the City of Lake Elmo to evaluate project suitability, natural resource protections, and transportation concerns associated with this proposal. Specific Comments • Page 3 - Rewrite the statement on page 3 so that it does not imply that the City has determined that this project meets shoreland overlay district requirements. At this stage of the PUD process, it is premature to state that the proposed project design complies with shoreland overlay district requirements.

MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES CENTRAL REGION 1200 WARNER ROAD SAINT PAUL. MN 55106 651-259-5800 MNDNR fully evaluated whether the development plans are in conformance with City ordinances and State shoreland rules. Page 3 states that this project minimizes effects on floodplains. However, page 10, states that there will be about 15.6 acre-feet of fill in the flood fringe to accommodate 15 residential lots and streets. The statement on page 3 is misleading since there will be significant changes to the existing floodplain configuration. What layout design modifications could be made to avoid the need for floodplain fill and rerouting of flood waters into storage ponds? How will floodplain storage outside of the PUD boundary be managed (i.e., who will own and maintain these storage ponds)? Page 3 — Please correct the MNDNR PWI # for the unnamed public water wetland from 82-1I7W to 82-417W. The MNDNR ID # for the unnamed public watercourse is M-050-009-001. Page 8 states that the City's ordinance requires only two conditions to be met to allow for PUDs (the City's PUD ordinance and the State shoreland PUD rules). PUDs, by their very nature, are a negotiation between the local government and the proposer. The City, through the PUD process, can require additional conditions in exchange for the increased density that is allowed under a PUD. Through the PUD process and negotiations with the developer, the City can also exert influence on how a property is developed and what the design of that development looks like. For example, the City can require greater tree preservation, slope/erosion protection, interconnectivity, conservation easements, or other environmental or public benefits. Page 9 and Appendix A - Please update the shoreland PUD suitable area, open space, and density calculations (Tables 5 and 6 and Appendix A) to match those numbers provided in analyses completed after the submittal of the EAW, include with this analysis a map showing areas suitable for development and those areas not suitable for development and their acreages. Also include with this analysis a map showing areas of open space and those areas not included in open space and their acreages. Page 11 states that the proposed project is compatible with surrounding land uses. Describe in more detail in what ways the PUD's design plan is compatible with surrounding land uses. Please provide more detail on the preservation of forest buffers and how they provide compatibility with surrounding land uses. Has this proposal considered ways to preserve existing forest areas to allow for plant and wildlife preservation? Figure 7 — Please show the location of steep slopes on Figure 7, to help the reader detennine the location of proposed lots, structures, and roads in relation to steep topographic areas.

Minnesota Department of Health PROTECTING, MAINTAINING AND IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF ALL MINNESOTANS November 23"I, 2016 Stephen Wensman Planning Director City of Lake Elmo 3800 Laverne Avenue North Lake Elmo, MN 55042 Dear Mr. Wensman, Thank you for providing the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) with the opportunity to comment on the Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) for the Royal Golf Club Residential. Development project. The mission of MDF1 is to protect, maintain, and improve the health of all Minnesotans. The careful planning and development of projects such as this one supports this mission and is an important step in ensuring health in all policies. MDH does have several comments regarding groundwater, water quality, and soil contamination at and near the site: Section 10 — "Geology" Although no sinkholes have been identified on the project property, the Minnesota Geological Survey (MGS) karst inventory does map one sinkhole less than one mile northeast of the project property, just north of the intersection of Manning Avenue and 271h St. N. (UTM coordinates 510846/4981836). 'Depth to carbonate bedrock is an important factor in the potential for karst development, with that potential increasing significantly where depths are less than 50 feet (Alexander, et al. , 2003, "Sinkholes, Sinkhole Probability, and Springs and Seeps'', Goodhue County Atlas, County Atlas Series, Atlas C-12, Part B, Plate 10). Well logs near the east property boundary of the project area indicate depth to bedrock is approximately 47-59 ft. (unique well numbers: 442166, 447252, 431201, and 503306). Two infiltration areas and two stonnwater ponds are planned near the northeast corner of the project property (as shown on Figure 7). Consideration should be given to potential karst development beneath these infiltration areas and whether any mitigation measures are needed, particularly given the proximity of these areas to planned home construction. Section 11 — "Water Resources" The groundwater discussion should include more information regarding the perfluorochemical (PFC) contamination in the groundwater in this area. Groundwater has been impacted by PFCs from the former Washington County Landfill and 3M-Oakdale Disposal Site. Due to groundwater flow, surface water -groundwater interactions, and stormwater management activities, the groundwater east of Lake Elmo has been impacted by PFCs emerging from these disposal areas. Recent MDH sampling has detected PFCs at concentrations above the new Environmental An equal opportunity employer Stephen Wensman The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Page 2 November 23rd, 201.6 Protection Agency (EPA) Lifetime Health Advisory levels of 70 parts per trillion for PFOS and PFOA in the surface water in Lake Elmo, the unnamed creek that discharges from Lake Elmo onto the project property, Horseshoe Lake, and the series of ditches and stormwater ponds further downstream. Surface water ponds on the property that are part of the Project 1007 drainage system are almost certain to be similarly impacted. The full extent and distribution of PFCs in this portion of Lake .Elmo are still being determined. Use of surface water or groundwater at the project site should be carefully managed to avoid human exposure and prevent further spreading of the contamination. MDH further recommends landscaping options be implemented to create significant buffers in order to restrict public access to Horseshoe Lake. Preliminary data suggests PFC contamination is primarily in the Prairie du Chien aquifer (OPDC), but excessive use of Jordan aquifer (C.1DN) wells may cause downward migration of the contamination, potentially placing downgraclient CJDN wells at risk. MDH recommends the project proposer work with MDH, MPCA, and DNR to evaluate water quality in the existing wells and surface waters on the project property and determine appropriate use of these to mitigate for these potential impacts. Section 12 — "Contamination/Hazardous Materials/Wastes" The sub -section titled "Investigation History" indicates a "disposal area" is located on an adjoining property to the southeast. The location is not shown on any figures and no information is provided regarding this disposal area and its proximity to the project property. The sub -section titled "Response Action Plan" indicates that contaminated soils excavated at the site are to be managed in a "Regulated Soil Management Area" beneath a 2 ft. cover. The figure shown in the Phase II Investigation Report (Appendix D) indicates the area proposed for this management area has a significant slope and may be prone to erosion. MDH assumes MPCA will be consulted in the design and construction of this facility to ensure it provides long-term encapsulation of these soils to prevent exposures. The sub -section titled "PFCs and Area Groundwater Contamination" (page 27) should be revised to reflect that PFCs above levels of health concern are present in the groundwater in this part of Lake Elmo. Although the concentrations detected in the CJDN wells on the property do not exceed levels of health concern, as noted above continued extraction of water from the CJDN may result in increased PFCs in this aquifer over time. Appendix D — Table 3 Although the table correctly identifies the cutTent MDH Health Risk Limits for PFOS, PFOA, PFBA, and PFBS, it should be noted that MDH now uses the new EPA health advisory levels of 70 ng/L for PFOS and PFOA when evaluating health risks. Health starts where we live, learn, work, and play. To create and maintain healthy Minnesota communities, we have to think in terms of health in all policies.

Enhancing the gneenway,00hdorthat connects Lake Elmo tonatural areas tothe east isencouraged. Section 1D—Geology, Soils and Topography / Land Forms Sect\oob. Soils and Topography • Compliance with NPDES` watershed, and local requirements will minimize adverse impacts of soil erosion and sedimentation. The VVCU can provide support to the City to ensure compliance as needed. The VV[D recommends phasing the earthwork and grading tnthe greatest extent possible to limit the scale and duration ofexposed soils during construction. * Preserve HSG R soils to the extent possible. Protecting zones of optimum infiltration from compaction ispreferred w Minimize soil compaction and provide soil restoration in landscaped areas to enhance infiltration ~ Deep -rip the soils with a toothed bucket in low o/ compacted areas to promote infiltration after major construction iscomplete Section 11—Water Resources Section iv. Surface Waters � The EAVV indicates the site will meet City and V8VVD infiltration guidelines, which recommend retaining the 1.1" min event on -site. VVCD encourages the use of bimretendon to meet the ondte volume retention standards. 8inretendon promotes both infiltration and evapotranspiration which more effectively mimics terrestrial hydrology than pure infiltration systems. These systems are designed to be distributed throughout the site and treat small contributing drainage areas' breaking up larger catchments into smaller, more manageable parts. Minimizing the drainage area provides multiple benefits to stonnwate/ treatment, including the potential for reduced infrastructure conveyance costs. x",,,,*",.. To ensure the long-term effectiveness of volume control, the following design specifications are presented for consideration: * Do not rely on long-term infiltration from unlined stormwater ponds or wet detention basins * Install bioretent|on/inNtrat)on practices off-line * Include f|ow'sp|hterand high -flow bypass * Provide pre-treatment (especially for sediment toprolong the life nfapractice) ° Keep the max water depth to acceptable levels based on soil types and actual infiltration rates ° Refer to the Minnesota Stnrmwoter Manual, I013 (on MN PCA webdte) for additional design and implementation considerations The VV[0 is also serving on the VVCATEP and will provide comments on the wetland permitinQthrough that process.

The proposed project is located within the Valley Branch Watershed District (VBWD). I offer the following comments on behalf of the VBWD. The numbers correspond to the numbers in the EAW. 9. Land Use Descriptions a.ii Plans (Page 6): While the site does not lie within a Minnesota Department of Natural Resources planned conservation corridor, the site is within an existing, somewhat connected, natural greenway corridor, as shown on Figure 20 of VBWD's March 2013 Results of Minnesota Routine Assessment Method (MNRAM) for Evaluating Wetland Function (attached). a.iii Zoning, Floodplains (Pages 9-11): The VBWD recently completed more detailed modeling of the Downs Lake watershed that used current climate and topographic data. The modeling results and statistical analysis found the 1%-annual-chance (100-year) flood level of Downs Lake to be Elevation 893.8. The VBWD will regulate to this flood level instead of the FEMA base flood elevation of 893.0. VBWD Rule 5, Standard 3, limits fill in lakes, ponds, and storage sites so that the cumulative effect of all possible filling will not raise the 100-year flood level more than 0.1 foot. Flood - storage replacement is allowed to conform to this VBWD rule, but wetlands should not be filled or drained to provide the flood -storage replacement. Structures will need to have their minimum floor elevations at least 2 feet higher than the adjacent water bodies' VBWD-adopted 100-year flood level, as required in VBWD Rule 5, Standard 2. Easements covering all portions of the property that lie below the 100-year flood elevation of lakes, wetlands, ponds, lowlands, and streams will need to be dedicated to the VBWD, as required in VBWD Rule 5, Standard 3.

Reducing the size or changing the shape of cul-de- sacs can reduce the amount of impervious surface in subdivisions. Cul-de-sacs should be designed using the minimum radius that accomodates turning of emergency, service, and maintenance vehicles. Changing the radius from 40 feet to 30 feet can reduce the impervious coverage by about 50% (Schueler 1995). Using turnaround options such as a T-shape can also greatly reduce unpervious surface. A landscaped island in the center of the cul-de-sac removes impervious surface where driving does not occur. This island can also be designed as a depression to accept stormwater runoff from the surrounding pavement. A flat apron curb will stabilize roadway pavement and allow for runoffto flow from pavement into the cul-de- sac's open center.

VVebelieve this isinaccurate since the City Council has not voted to amend its current Comprehensive Plan to allow any kind ofresidential development nnthis property. Z) The Traffic Impact Analysis was based ondata collected inJuly, I8l6 VVeare concerned that this data may significantly under -represent the normal "base|ine"traffic volume for the following reasons: ° A significant portion of Lake Elmo Avenue N was closed during this time due to construction onLake Elmo Ave and inthe Old Village area. ° Local schools were not insession due tothe Summer break. ° The Tartan Park golf course was not operational during this time. The developer has indicated that they expect 30,000 — 45,000 rounds of golf annually which will generate additional traffic volume that may not have been fully reflected in the analysis. 3) We've heard recently that the City Council might opt toschedule avote onaproposed Comprehensive Plan amendment for this land at the upcoming December 6'h Council meeting. We feel that a vote on December 6 1h would not allow enough time for a thorough review and consideration ofthe public comments related tothis EAVV. Our understanding isthat |tis common practice byRGU's tonot take any legislative action ootheir comprehensive plan amendments for the area under consideration prior to the completion and public review of an EAVVorEIS and official action onthe pending EAVVorEIS. 4) We would like to raise the question of whether an EIS might be required or simply be prudent for this development. Asyou undoubtedly know, MNRule 44lO.44OOSubp.I4defines aset of residential housing unit thresholds which trigger the need for a mandatory EIS based on "the total number of units that the proposer may ultimately develop on all contiguous land owned by the proposer orfor which the proposer has anoption topuohase." Unless the developer b number of housing units which could eventually be built on this entire 477-acre parcel may very well eventually exceed the thresholds defined /nthis rule. Our understanding is that development with the potential for "400 unattached units or 600 attached units — if the project is not consistent with the adopted comprehensive plan" would require a mandatory EIS. Although our neighborhood continues to be amenable to this proposed development in concept, we remain disappointed with the proposed 292-unit housing density and we have concerns about the potential for several hundred additional homes should the golf course someday become financially unsustainab|e. Given the unique location and exceptional attributes of this property, coupled with the widely held local desire to preserve and protect the rural character of Lake Elmo, we feel that '{)pen Space" housing densities similar to those in our neighborhood would be far preferable and more appropriate for this development. Thank you for your continued leadership in managing this important process on behalf of our City.

My first concern is that the commercial aspect of the development, the golf course, club house, storage area, sport complex, and driving range were not part of the study. These commercial aspects of the development will add to the traffic, congestion, water runoff, and have a strong environmental impact onthe area. Onpage 3itstates "Traffic generated bythe project will have little tonoimpact onthe regional transportation system. Intersections surrounding the site will continue to operate at acceptable levels of service with the traffic generated by the proposed project." This is followed up later on page 35 by a traffic study that was completed in July, 2016, when the golf course, driving range, club house, sport complex, and storage building were closed and the streets tothe east and west, Lake Elmo Avenue and Manning Avenue, were under construction and school was not in session. I disagree with the Traffic Impact Study conclusion that the proposed project will have minimal effects on adjacent public roads and that nearby intersections will continue to operate at an overall Level of Service (LOS) A. A proper study needs tobecompleted. The study continues unpage 35 tosay "These residential development isexpected togenerate atotal uf 2,780 average daily trips, including 1,390 vehicles entering the site and 1,390 vehicles exiting the site. It continues with "The complete development analyzed included an 18-hole golf course with 293 single family home land parcels. Based onthis layout, the resulting new traffic associated with the proposed development is expected to be 1,717 vehicles entering and 1,717 vehicles exiting the development per day (total daily trip generation of 3,434 vehicles)." There is a difference in traffic if the commercial aspects are included inthe study and they should beas they will bepart mfthe traffic. Also in the traffic discussion it appears they are unsure what roads the traffic will use and which traffic to count. it would also be good to determine if the entire area will be developed at this time as this will impactthetraUlcouunt.^Theneisanothe/potcnda|acceoontoK8an^ingTmi|Nforthepnoposed residential component. This future access will depend upon development of the adjacent property and isnot included inthis traffic analysis. It should be noted that the proposed site driveways do not provide access to the entire development as each access only services a portion of the overall site. This results in traffic that does not mix within the site, and depending on where the driver's origin and destination, will determine which access 1ouse. Page 8 states "The City's ordinance also requires that shoreland PUDs be connected to public water and sewer systems, and that least 50% of the shoreland area be maintained as open space." This is true, however only that land within 1000 feet of a shoreland is zoned this way and needs to be connected to public sewer, the remainder ofthe land could use septic systems. 1nfact, depending onthe placement ofthe lots nnhome would need touse public sewer. Page lOstates "The project isproposing tnplace about 14.Oacre-feet offill inthe flood fringe ofDowns Lake to elevate an area for construction of15 residential lots and adjoining streets, Construction of municipal street around the east side of Lake Rose will require about 1.6 acre-feet of fill in the flood fringe of Lake Rose," We want to make sure proper authorities are committed to supervising this activity as streets and 15 homes could be flooded if not completed correctly. This area has been flooded in the past. It is unfortunate the developer is not listening to the land and building outside of a floodplain. Page 11 states "The proposed project is compatible with the proposed land use, zoning, and surrounding land uses. The project isdesigned topreserve considerable forested buffers adjacent to surrounding roadways. These vegetated buffers will enhance the compatibility of the project with nearby land uses and help preserve the forested character of the ansa."|tistrue this may becompatible with land use, but certainly not with density of the surrounding homes, The current surrounding lots are about one acre and go up to almost 50 acres per household, the proposed lots start at 0.4 acre and go up to .75 acre per household. The conversion offorest toimpervious surface will significantly change the character ufthe area and decrease the natural habitat of the existing wildlife corridor. Also onpage 32it states: "buckthorn may be left in the undeotory along exterior roadways to provide visual screening." | don't believe an invasive species is considered a "forested buffer" and will not enhance the project. Page 13 describes the "Grading operations for residential development construction are expected to affect 137.5 acres and involve movement of about 750,000 to 1 million cubic yards of soil to construct streets, residential building pads, and stormwmterponds. Grading isexpected toavoid disturbance on 844acres within the project area" |tisunfortunate somuch land has tobedisturbed, however it means thenexviUbecnnddenab|enoixe.Page34directsourattentiontm^Noisegenemtedhy construction equipment and residential building construction will be limited primarily to daylight hours when noise levels are commonly higher than atnighC" Ifthis is true, what provision isbeing made so the surrounding landowners are allowed their rightful peace and quiet? |wou|d like tosuggest all noise generating equipment may only be operated from 8 AM to 5 PM and only Monday to Friday. Page 16 states "The project is expected to produce norma I domestic wastewater. This wastewater b expected tubetypical ofresidential developments. The project will not include industrial wastewater production or onsite wastewater treatment." It is unfortunate the club house and other commercial aspects are not included as there will bewastewater from them, Noestimates were given astothe amounts. Page l8states "The net increase inimpervious surface is estimated at38.6acres. The creation of stormwater features and the preservation of wetland buffers and other open spaces is expected to mitigatepctenda|adveoeefhectshomtheincneaseinimpeminussurfaoe.^Again|askfo/scrutinyof any permits and close supervision and of the mitigation as they are increasing the impervious area, Also, can webeassured there will besupervision cf these projects over time tomake sure they are inproper working order? Will unlimited access be given to the proper authorities to all stormwater management facilities? This area has had major flooding in the past and with the addition of so much impervious surface itwill need timely reviews. Page 30tells us"The project area includes potential 8|anding'sturt|u's(Emydoideab|andin@ji),habitat consisting ofwetlands and sandy soils. The best B|andinR'sturtle habitat includes wetland complexes larger than 10 acres that are surrounded by open sandy uplands." The concern continues on Page 32 with "The project may have effects on8|anding's turtles that may occur inthe area. Tominimize potential adverse effects nnturtles and their mobility, the project will avoid most wetlands, implement stringent sediment and erosion controls, consider the use of surmountable curbs on roadways, and consider erosion control materials constructed of organic fibers rather than plastic." I don't believe these developers wish to eliminate a state -listed threatened species, and therefore should abide by the necessarymeasurestoaourotheirsun/ivai|tbonethinQto^try"andanothertoactuaUydothem. They also need to avoid disturbance in type 2 and 3 wetlands, no dewatering of wetlands in the winter, and use wildlife friendly erosion control methods. Also, roads should bekept tominimum standards on widths and lanes (this reduces road kills by slowing traffic and reducing the distance turtles need to cross). Who will be overseeing these measures and what agency will follow through to make sure they are done? On Page 32 | was happy to see, "To the extent practicable, tree clearing will occur between October and April, when migratory songbirds and bats are not nesting or reproducing." This is extremely important as oak wilt is prevalent in the area and we don't wish to have trees cut at the wrong time of the year. Please check with ana/bo/ist\omake sure hixsafe before cutting. However, "buckthorn may beleft in theunderstorya|on0exter|o/voadwaystop/ovidevisua|ureening"isnotacceptab|e.Buckthornisan invasive species and difficult to remove, but to intentionally leave it when there are alternatives available isunacceptable \nMinnesota. Acertified landscape architect should oversee this aspect ofthe project. Page 33 states, "Although the proposed project may affect some views from nearby homes, the project proponent has included design elements in the project to minimize visual effects on nearby homeowners." There are residents on all four sides of the development and all wish to have as little sight ofthe development aspossible. Buckthorn bnot anacceptable buffer. "The project will not involve installation of intense lights that would cause glare, nor will it include industries thatwnu|demitvaporp|umes."Thedeve|uperneedstofo||ovvthe|i0ht\ngcudeso/Lake Page 34states, "The project bnot expected tngenerate dust orodors atlevels considered unusual for suburban development construction practices." The surrounding area does not have dense development, the area bnot your "usual suburban deve|opment" "Dust,odors, and noise levels are expected to be slightly higher during project construction than project operations". Hours ofoperation are important especially if they will begoing onfor 3'7years. The health and emotional wellbeing ofthe surrounding homeowners should be considered and is important. I again suggest all noise generating equipment may only beoperated from 8AMto5PKland only Monday toFriday. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the EAW.

Golf Course Development, LLC, this memo transmits a revised Shoreland PUD Evaluation and map showing shoreland development and open space areas currently proposed. The Applicant understands that open space planning will be revised and further reviewed during the preliminary plat/PUD application review. We anticipate that final protected open space maps will be prepared by land surveyors and may vary slightly from the open space shown herein. This evaluation shows that the project complies with allowable base densities in every shoreland. The project also complies with the requirement for a minimum of 50% protected open space. This shoreland evaluation excludes DNR public waters from total shoreland areas. Regulated wetlands, incidental wetlands, and bluffs are excluded from net suitable areas. Tables 1 and 2 show the overall shoreland density evaluation and open space percentage, respectively. Tables 3 and 4 show the tiered shoreland density evaluation and open space for the Lake Elmo and DNR public watercourse shorelands. Tables 5 and 6 show similar data for the Downs Lake shoreland. Shoreland data for Lake Rose and Horseshoe Lake are shown in Tables 7 and 8, and 9 and 10, respectively.

The proposed project is located 222.2 gross acres located between 10'h Street North and 20'" Street North, and bounded by Manning Trail on the East and by Lake Elmo Avenue on the west. The proposed development includes 292 single-family- detached homes connected to municipal water and sanitary sewer on approximately 198,3 net acres, with approximately 90.8 acres reserved as private open space. The proposed project is located on the site formerly owned by 3M and previously a part of Tartan Park golf course. The staff review finds that the EA W is complete and accurate with respect to regional concerns and does not raise major issues of consistency with Council policies. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not necessary for regional purposes. We offer the followir c is for your consideration. Item 8 —Permits and Approvals Required (LisaBeth Barajas. 651-602-1895) As of the date of this review letter, the City's overall planned density (including all previous amendments) is 3.25 units per acre. The proposed development brings the City's overall density down to 3.05 units per acre, which remains consistent with the Council's density policy of 3 units per acre for Emerging Suburban Edge communities. As noted in the EAW, a comprehensive plan amendment will be needed should the City decide to move forward with the proposed development. The proposed amendment should make any necessary changes to land use to support the ultimate development concept, as well as provide updates to the wastewater and MUSA sections of the comprehensive plan to show this area as within the service area as well as projected flows from the development. As City and Council staff have discussed, a comprehensive plan amendment will need to he submitted to the Council for review and authorization to before moving forward with this development. In accordance with Minnesota Statute Section 473.513, at the time the project proposer makes application to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) for a permit to construct each segment of sanitary sewer for the proposed project, a copy of the plans, design data, and a location map of thc project will also need to be submitted to the Metropolitan Council. The Council's Environmental Service Municipal Services staff will need to review, comment, and Saint Pau .2WW0904 80 • . M ETROPOL I TAN c o U N C L recommend issuance of the construction permit by the MPCA before connection can be made to the City's wastewater disposal system. Forecasts (]odd Graham, 651-602-1322) Forecasts by Transportation Analysis Zone (TAZ) are not discussed in the EAW, but this information would be helpful as part of the City's comprehensive plan should they move forward with this development. The Metropolitan Council has prepared a draft set of TAZ forecasts for 2040. which is available for local government review, The Royal Golf Club site is within TAZ #2403. The zone is currently forecasted to gain +36 households during the period from 2010-2040. Council staff recommend adding +250 households, +700 population to the TAZ #2403 forecast. Balancing adjustments can be made to the TAZs elsewhere in the community. The City can update the TAZ forecast through correspondence with Metropolitan Council staff. Council staff opinion is that the proposed development fits within the community total forecast prepared by the Council' no change is needed to the community total forecast. This concludes the Council's review of the EAW. The Council will not take formal action on the EAW. If you have any questions or need further information, please contact me at 651-602-1895.

The Project consists of the preparation of 222 acres of land for residential development. Regarding matters for which the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) has regulatory responsibility and other interests, the MPCA staff has the following comments for your consideration. Permits and Approval Required (item 0\ The table in this section of the EAW does not include the MPCA 401 Water Quality Certification. Water Resources (Item 11\ ° Specific in -water best management practices such as silt curtain, construction during low flow or winter conditions, cofferdam, orcheck'doms, etc. should he included in the EAVV. Please note that isolated wetlands remain under MPCA jurisdiction as waters of the state and mitigation may be required. Wetland evaluation is on a case -by -case basis. It appears that the golf course will continue to use groundwater for potable, irrigation,fire protection, and maintenance use. It is important to note that the location of this development lies within known areas of aquifer contamination. The development overlies a perfluorochemical groundwater plume that has impacted groundwater quality in each of the primary drinking water aquifers present. Recent groundwater monitoring inthe area ofHorseshoe Lake has indicated the presence ofperf|uoruchemicab at levels in excess of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) health advisory |eve|s. Less than I mile to the north and east of the development lies the Trichlorciethene (TCE) groundwater plume associated with the Baytown Township Groundwater Plume Site. The TCE plume has impacted groundwater quality in each of the primary drinking water aquifers present. Mr, StephenVVenoman Page November ZlIOl6 Care should beexercised when using groundwater inthis region for potable and irrigation purposes. The EPA recently issued significantly lower health advisory levels for several perfluorinated substances. Because the specific configuration of the groundwater plumes in the area are not well understood and likely vary over time, it is not possible to accurately predict whether a well that has been clear of contamination in the past will remain clear of contamination inthe future. Lake Elmo, Horseshoe Lake, several small drainage ponds, and ditches within the golf course area and further downstream have been shown to be contaminated with perfluorochemicals at levels in excess of EPA health advisory levels. Care should be exercised when using surface water from these areas for irrigation purposes so as to minimize the potential for human and environmental exposure tothese contaminants. Contamination/Hazardous Mate haIs/Wastes (item 12) This section refers to a natural gas pipeline that runs across part of the site, The Project proposer should contact the Office of Pipeline Safety to determine the appropriate setbacks.for this structure.

The EPA issued revised drinking water criteria in 2016. The EAVVdoes not discuss how soil contaminated with materials other than agricultural chemicals will be handled. The MPCA recommends that the site be entered into the IVIPCA Brownfield Program (formerly called the Voluntary Investigation and Cleanup Program) in order to provide regulatory oversight with regard to non-agricultural related contamination issues. Accidental spills or releases from on'siteequipment buried rubble, municipal solid waste, buried demolition waste, etc, are situations regulated by the IVIPCA. The Brownfield Program provides technical assistance and issuance of various liability assurance letters to promote the investigation, cleanup, and redevelopment ofproperty that is contaminated with petroleum and/or hazardous substances.

Thank you for providing the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) with the opportunity to comment on the Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) for the Royal Golf Club Residential Development project. The mission of MDH is to protect, maintain, and improve the health of all Minnesotans. The careful planning and development of projects such as this one supports this mission and is an important step in ensuring health in all policies. MDH does have several comments regarding groundwater, water quality, and soil contamination at and near the site: Section 10 — "Geolog.v" Although no sinkholes have been identified on the project property, the Minnesota Geological Survey (MGS) karst inventory does map one sinkhole less than one mile northeast oldie project property, just north of the intersection of Manning Avenue and 27th St. N. (UTM coordinates 510846/4981836). Depth to carbonate bedrock is an important factor in the potential for karsi development, with that potential increasing significantly where depths are less than 50 feet (Alexander, et al. , 2003, "Sinkholes, Sinkhole Probability, and Springs and Seeps", Goodhue County Atlas, County Atlas Series, Atlas C-12, Part B, Plate 10). Well logs near the east property boundary of the project area indicate depth to bedrock is approximately 47-59 ft. (unique well numbers: 442166, 447252, 431201, and 503306). Two infiltration areas and two stonnwater ponds are planned near the northeast corner ofthe project property (as shown on Figure 7). Consideration should be given to potential karst development beneath these infiltration areas and whether any mitigation measures are needed, particularly given the proximity of these areas to planned home construction. Section 11 — "Water Resources" The groundwater discussion should include more information regarding the perfluorocheinical (PFC) contamination in the groundwater in this area. Groundwater has been impacted by PFCs from the former Washington County Landfill and 3M-Oakdale Disposal Site, Due to groundwater flow, surface water -groundwater interactions, and stormwater management activities, the groundwater east of Lake Elmo has been impacted by PFCs emerging from these disposal areas. Recent MDH sampling has detected PFCs at concentrations above the new Environmental An equal opportunity employer Stephen Wensman The Royal Golf Club Residential Development Page 2 November 23ra, 2016 Protection Agency (EPA) Lifetime Health Advisory levels of 70 parts per trillion for PFOS and PFOA in the surface water in Lake Elmo, the unnamed creek that discharges from Lake Elmo onto the project property, Horseshoe Lake, and the series of ditches and stormwater ponds further downstream. Surface water ponds on the property that are part of the Project 1007 drainage system are almost certain to be similarly impacted. The full extent and distribution of PFCs in this portion of Lake Elmo are still being determined. Use of surface water or groundwater at the project site should be carefully managed to avoid human exposure and prevent further spreading of the contamination. MDH further recommends landscaping options be implemented to create significant buffers in order to restrict public access to Horseshoe Lake. Preliminary data suggests PFC contamination is primarily in the Prairie du Chien aquifer (OPDC), but excessive use of Jordan aquifer (CJDN) wells may cause downward migration of the contamination, potentially placing downgradient CJDN wells at risk. MDFI recommends the project proposer work with MDH, MPCA, and DNR to evaluate water quality in the existing wells and surface waters on the project property and determine appropriate use of these to mitigate for these potential impacts. Section 12 —"Contamination/Hazardous Materials/Wastes" The sub -section titled -Investigation History" indicates a "disposal area" is located on an adjoining property to the southeast. The location is not shown on any figures and no information is provided regarding this disposal area and its proximity to the project property. The sub -section titled "Response Action Plan" indicates that contaminated soils excavated at the site are to be managed in a "Regulated Soil Management Area" beneath a 2 ft. cover. The figure shown in the Phase 11 Investigation Report (Appendix D) indicates the area proposed for this management area has a significant slope and may be prone to erosion. MDH assumes MPCA will he consulted in the design and construction of this facility to ensure it provides long-term encapsulation of these soils to prevent exposures. The sub -section titled "PFCs and Area Groundwater Contamination" (page 27) should be revised to reflect that PFCs above levels of health concern are present in the groundwater in this part of Lake Elmo. Although the concentrations detected in the CJDN wells on the property do not exceed levels of health concern, as noted above continued extraction of water from the CJDN may result in increased PFCs in this aquifer over time. Appendix D — Table 3 Although the table coffectiv identifies the current MDH Health Risk Limits for PFOS, PFOA, PFBA, and PFBS, it should be noted that MDH now uses the new EPA health advisory levels of 70 ng/L for PFOS and PFOA when evaluating health risks, Health starts where we live, learn, work, and play. To create and maintain healthy Minnesota conummities, we have to think in terms of health in all policies.

Lake Elmo, MN 55042 RE: The Royal Golf Club Residential Development EAW Dear Stephen Wenstnan, Transmitted electronically The Minnesota Departinent of Natural Resources (MNDNR) has reviewed the Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) for the Royal Golf Club Residential Development EAW. General Comments To date, MNDNR has provided formal comments on the concept PUD to the City of Lake Elmo and informal comments to the developer on the PUD density analysis. These comments have been based on the assumption that the PUD will have City water and sewer. MNDNR will fortnally review the preliminary PUD and plat when these are submitted to the City, to determine if they meet the PUD provisions in State shoreland rules. MNDNR review of shoreland PUDs looks for consistency with the density allowances, setbacks, and height as well as a variety of more subjective perfonnance standards dealing with protection of vegetation and sensitive slopes. While we look for compliance with the numerical standards, we recognize that good environmental design cannot be reduced to compliance with a set of numbers. The shoreland PUD standards were part of the 1989 State shoreland rules and were an early form of conservation design regulations. A lot has been learned about conservation design since 1989 and many communities in Minnesota have adopted different shoreland PUD standards to limit density, ensure better natural resource/open space protection, and provide for greater alignment with the community's vision. MNDNR has concerns on the design of the Royal Golf Club Residential PUD because the proposed development is too dense for the natural resources on the site. In making this evaluation, MNDNR is considering overall project suitability by looking at how the design impacts the existing natural environment on the site. From our perspective, a development is not suitable if it is consuming areas of high quality vegetation and areas with slopes greater than 12 percent (which MNDNR considers steep slopes). Ultimately, however, it is up to the City of Lake Elmo to evaluate project suitability, natural resource protections, and transportation concerns associated with this proposal. Specific Comments • Page 3 - Rewrite the statement on page 3 so that it does not imply that the City has detennined that this project meets shoreland overlay district requirements. At this stage of the PUD process, it is premature to state that the proposed project design complies with shoreland overlay district requirements. The City of Lake Elmo has not approved this development yet nor has the City mndnr.gov 44 PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER CONTAINING A MINIMUM OF 10°/© POST -CONSUMER WASTE. It4 AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER. MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES CENTRAL REGION 1200 WARNER ROAD SAINT PAUL, MN 55106 651-259-5800 MNDNR fully evaluated whether the development plans are in conformance with City ordinances and State shoreland rules. Page 3 states that this project minimizes effects on floodplains. However, page 10, states that there will be about 15.6 acre-feet of fill in the flood fringe to accommodate 15 residential lots and streets. The statement on page 3 is misleading since there will be significant changes to the existing floodplain configuration. What layout design modifications could be made to avoid the need for floodplain fill and rerouting of flood waters into storage ponds'? How will floodplain storage outside of the PUD boundary be managed (i.e., who will own and maintain these storage ponds)? Page 3 — Please con-ect the MNDNR PWI # for the unnamed public water wetland from 82-117W to 82-417W. The MNDNR ID # for the unnamed public watercourse is M-050-009-001. Page 8 slates that the City's ordinance requires only two conditions to be met to allow for PUDs (the City's PUD ordinance and the State shoreland PUD rules). PUDs, by their very nature, are a negotiation between the local government and the proposer. The City, through the PUD process, can require additional conditions in exchange for the increased density that is allowed under a PUD. Through the PUD process and negotiations with the developer, the City can also exert influence on how a property is developed and what the design of that development looks like. For example, the City can require greater tree preservation, slope/erosion protection, interconnectivity, conservation easements, or other environmental or public benefits. Page 9 and Appendix A - Please update the shoreland PUD suitable area, open space, and density calculations (Tables 5 and 6 and Appendix A) to match those numbers provided in analyses completed after the submittal of the EAW.

November 11, 2016 Mr. Stephen Wensman Planning Director City of Lake Elrno 3800 Laverne Avenue North Lake Elmo, MN 55042 Re: The Royal Golf Club Residential Development (EAW) Dear Mr. Wensman: Thank you for submitting a copy of the Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) for the proposed The Royal Golf Club Residential Development. The proposed project is located within the Valley Branch Watershed District (VBWD). I offer the following comments on behalf of the VBWD. The numbers correspond to the numbers in the EAW. 9. Land Use Descriptions a.ii Plans (Page 6): While the site does not lie within a Minnesota Department of Natural Resources planned conservation corridor, the site is within an existing, somewhat connected, natural greenway corridor, as shown on Figure 20 of VBWD's March 2013 Results of Minnesota Routine Assessment Method (MNRAM) for Evaluating Wetland Function (attached). a.iii Zoning, Floodplains (Pages 9-11): The VBWD recently completed more detailed modeling of the Downs Lake watershed that used current climate and topographic data. The modeling results and statistical analysis found the 1%-annual-chance (100-year) flood level of Downs Lake to bc Elevation 893.8. The VBWD will regulate to this flood level instead of the FEMA base flood elevation of 893.0. VBWD Rule 5, Standard 3, limits fill in lakes, ponds, and storage sites so that the cumulative effect of all possible filling will not raise the 100-year flood level more than 0.1 foot. Flood - storage replacement is allowed to conform to this VBWD rule, but wetlands should not be filled or drained to provide the flood -storage replacement. Structures will need to have their minimum floor elevations at least 2 feet higher than the adjacent water bodies' VBWD-adopted 100-year flood level, as required in VBWD Rule 5, Standard 2. Easements covering all portions of the property that lie below the 100-year flood elevation of lakes, wetlands, ponds, lowlands, and streams will need to be dedicated to the VBWD, as required in VBWD Rule 5, Standard 3.

BOX 838 • LAKE ELMO, MINNESOTA 55042-0538 www vbvid org Mr. Stephen Wensman November 11, 2016 Page 2 Based on Figure 7 of the EAW, it's unclear if the proposed fill below the Down's Lake 100- year flood level is being mitigated accurately and if the proposed homes will have minimum floor elevations that are in compliance to VBWD rules. Compatibility 9.b and 9.c. As noted in the EAW, the site is currently zoned for public and quasi -public open space, rather than residential use. Much of the adjacent land is either open parkland or used for residential housing with lots of at least 1 acre. The proposal is to create lots 0.4 to 0.75 acres. The EAW states that the project is designed to preserve considerable forested buffers adjacent to roadways. This will help hide the more densely developed lots from the existing, adjacent land, but the conversion of forest to impervious surface will significantly change the character of the area and decrease the natural habitat of the existing wildlife corridor. Additional mitigation measures should be identified, evaluated, and implemented, including but not limited to increasing the width of the corridor between Lake Elmo and the golf courses and configuring the lots to preserve trees and other natural features. 11. Water Resources Description a.i Surface Water (pages 13-15) This section of the EAW does not mention the VBWD's Project 1007 system that runs through the site. Project 1007 directs outflows from the northern two-thirds of the VBWD south and east to a storm sewer pipe along Interstate 94, which ultimately discharges to the impaired Wild and Scenic St. Croix River. Approximately 20 square miles drains through this site. Maintaining this conveyance through the site is critical. Project 1007 is mentioned in the Stormwater section of the EAW on page 18. Effects b.3.ii Stormwater (pages 17-20) Without seeing details, no determination can be made on the adequacy of the size and location of stormwater management facilities (ponds and infiltration areas) shown on Figure 7. Based on the concepts shown on the figure, additional infiltration areas will be needed to treat runoff from all impervious surfaces. For example, no stormwater management facility is shown near Rose Lake, and it's unlikely that the entire site will be graded or equipped with storm sewer pipes to convey the runoff to the proposed tiny infiltration area shown near the Lake Elmo outlet channel. However, as noted in the EAW, a VBWD permit will be required and the project will be reviewed for conforniance to the VBWD rules and regulations when a pennit application is submitted. The VBWD will need to have unlimited access to all stonnwater management facilities. The facilities depicted at the northeast corner of the site are shown on the golf course rather than in the residential subdivision. This could be problematic. The project shows several cul-de-sacs. The VBWD encourages the developer to work with the City of Lake Elmo to limit the amount of impervious surface for streets and cul- de-sacs. Please see the attached factsheets. Reducing the amount of impervious surface will reduce the construction cost to the developer, reduce the maintenance cost to the City, and reduce the size of stormwater management facilities to construct and maintain. b.3.iv.a Wetlands (page 21) As noted in the EAW, a VBWD permit will be required and the project will be reviewed for conformance to the VBWD rules and regulations when a permit application is submitted. Mr, Stephen Weissman November 11, 2010 Page 3 Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the EAW. As the EAW indicates, a VBWD permit will be required for the project. VBWD will review the project plans for conformance to the VBWD rules and regulations when a permit application is submitted, The items identified in this letter are meant to identify potential issues and assist the project designers in protecting the water resources of the area.

Many residential streets are wider than necessary. They should be designed with the minimum pavement width that will support the area's traffic volume; on -street parking needs; and emergency, maintenance, and service vehicles. For example, consider creating one parking lane rather than two for suburban residential streets. In new subdivisions, reduce impervious surface by reducing the total length of residential streets.

Benefits • Reducing impervious surface results in less stormwater runoff and less infrastructure to accommodate it. • Less pavement means lower costs for development and maintenance. • Narrower streets discourage fast driving speeds and create a more pedestrian -friendly environment.

Reducing the size or changing the shape of cul-de- sacs can reduce the amount of impervious surface in subdivisions. Cul-de-sacs should be designed using the minimum radius that accomodates turning of emergency, service, and maintenance vehicles. Changing the radius from 40 feet to 30 feet can reduce the impervious coverage by about 50% (Schueler 1995). Using turnaround options such as a T-shape can also greatly reduce impervious surface. A landscaped island in the center of the cul-de-sac removes impervious surface where driving does not occur. This island can also be designed as a depression to accept stormwater runoff from the surrounding pavement. A flat apron curb will stabilize roadway pavement and allow for runoff to flow from pavement into the cul-de- sac's open center.

Reducing stormwater runoff protects downstream water bodies. Less paved surface also means lower development and mainte- nance costs. • Reducing pavement lessens the urban heat island effect, the increase in air temperature that can occur when highly developed areas are exposed to the sun. • Planted cul-de-sac islands are more attractive than wide expanses of pavement. Design Guidelines • Design cul-de-sacs with a radius of 39 feet or less. • Include an unpaved, depressed island with a minimum radius of 20 feet.

Section 17. Noise Washington County's policy is to assist local governments in promoting compatibility between land use and highways. Residential uses located adjacent to highways often result in complaints about traffic noise. Traffic noise from adjacent highways could exceed noise standards established by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and the U,S. Department of Transportation. Minnesota Rule 7030.0030 states that municipalities are responsible for taking all reasonable measures to prevent land use activities listed in the MPCA`s Noise Area Classification (NAC) where the establishment of the land use would result in violations of established noise standards. Minnesota Statute 116.07, Subpart 2a exempts County Roads and County State Aid Highways from noise thresholds. 11GGOMyemnRoad North, Stillwater, Minnesota 550U2'3573 Phone: 851'430-4300 ^ Fax: 6514304350 ^ TTY; 651430'6346 wxmw.co.waohington.mnuo Equal Employment Opportunity / Affirmative Action Page November 23,28)d Washington County Comments on EAW for Royal Golf Club Residential Development Stephen Wensman, Planning Director County policy regarding development adjacent to existing highways prohibits the expenditure ofhighway funds for noise mitigation measures insuch areas, The developer should assess the noise situation and take any action outside mfCounty right mfvvaydeennedneoessarytm minimize the impact ofany highway noise.

K4yfirst concern bthat the commercial aspect ofthe development, the golf course, club house, storage area, sport complex, and driving range were not part of the study. These commercial aspects of the development will add to the traffic, congestion, water runoff, and have a strong environmental impact onthe area. On page ] it states "Traffic generated by the project will have little to no impact on the regional transportation system. Intersections surrounding the site will continue tooperate at acceptable levels of service with the traff ic generated by the proposed project." This is followed up later on page 35 by a traffic study that was completed in July, 2016, when the golf course, driving range, club house, sport complex, and storage building were closed and the streets to the east and west, Lake Elmo Avenue and Manning Avenue, were under construction and school was not in session. I disagree with the Traffic Impact Study conclusion that the proposed project will have minimal effects on adjacent public roads and that nearby intersections will continue to operate at an overall Level of Service (LOS) A. Apvoper study needs tobecompleted. The study continues on page 35 to say "These residential development is expected to generate a total of 2,78Oaverage daily trips, including l,39Ovehicles entering the site and 1,39Uvehicles exiting the site. |t continues with "The complete development analyzed included an 18-hole golf course with 293 single family home land parcels. Based on this layout, the resulting new traffic associated with the proposed development is expected to be 1,717 vehicles entering and 1,717 vehicles exiting the development per day (total daily trip generation of3,434vehides)."There isadifference intraffic if the commercial aspects are included in the study and they should be as they will be part of the traffic. Also in the traffic discussion it appears they are unsure what roads the traffic will use and which traffic tucount. |t would also begood todetermine if the entire area will bedeveloped atthis time as this will impacLthetrafficcount^Thereisanotherpotenda|accessontoMann)ngTmi|Nfurthepnopoued residential component. This future access will depend upon development of the adjacent property and isnot included inthis traffic analysis. It should be noted that the proposed site driveways do not provide access to the entire development as each access only services a portion of the overall site. This results in traffic that does not mix within the site, and depending onwhere the driver's origin and destination, wU| determine which access touse. Page 8 states "The City's ordinance also requires that shoreland PUDs be connected to public water and smmerqotems,andthat|east50%uftheshordandareahomaintainodasopenspace.^Thisiskue, however only that land within 1000 feet of a shoreland is zoned this way and needs to be connected to public sewer, the remainder ofthe land could use septic systems. |nfact, depending onthe placement ofthe lots nohome would need touse public sewer. Page 10 states "The project is proposing to place about 14.0 acre-feet of fill in the flood fringe of Downs Lake to elevate an area for construction of 15 residential lots and adjoining streets. Construction of municipal street around the east side of Lake Rose will require about 1.6 acre-feet of fill inthe flood fringe of Lake Rose." We want to make sure proper authorities are committed to supervising this activity asstreets and l5homes could beflooded ifnot completed correctly. This area has been flooded inthe past. It is unfortunate the developer is not listening to the land and building outside of a floodplain. Page 11 states "The proposed project is compatible with the proposed land use, zoning, and surrounding land uses. The project isdesigned topreserve considerable forested buffers adjacent to surrounding roadways. These vegetated buffers will enhance the compatibility of the project with nearby land uses and help preserve the forested character of the area." It is true this may be compatible with land use, but certainly not with density of the surrounding homes. The current surrounding lots are about one acre and gouptoalmost 5Oacres per household, the proposed lots start atO.4acre and goupto.75 acre per household. The conversion ufforest to impervious surface will significantly change the character of the area and decrease the natural habitat of the existing wildlife corridor. Also on page 32 'it states: "buckthorn may beleft inthe understoryalong exterior roadways toprovide visual sc/eening."| don't believe an invasive species is considered a "forested buffer" and will not enhance the project. Page 13 describes the "Grading operations for residential development construction are expected to affect 137.5 acres and involve movement of about 750,000 to 1 million cubic yards of soil to construct streets, residential building pads, and stormwaterponds.

I would like to suggest all noise generating equipment may only be operated from 8 AM to 5 PM and only Monday to Friday. Page 16 states "The project is expected to produce normal domestic wastewater. This wastewater is expected to be typical of residential developments. The project will not include industrial wastewater production or ondte wastewater treatment." It is unfortunate the dub house and other commercial aspects are not included asthere will bewastewater from them. Noestimates were given astothe amounts. Page 18states "The net increase i^impervious surface is estimated at38.6acres. The creation of stormwater features and the preservation of wetland buffers and other open spaces is expected to mitigate potential adverse effects from the increase in impervious surface." Again I ask for scrutiny of any permits and close supervision and of the mitigation as they are increasing the impervious area. Also, can we be assured there will be supervision of these projects over time to make sure they are in proper working order? Will unlimited access be given to the proper authorities to all stormwater management facilities? This area has had major flooding in the past and with the addition of so much impervious surface itwill need timely reviews. Page 3Otells us"The project area includes potential 8bndim's1urt|e's(Emydoideab|andingii),habitat consisting ofwetlands and sandy soils. The best B|anding'sturtle habitat includes wetland complexes larger than 10 acres that are surrounded by open sandy uplands," The concern continues on Page 32 with "The project may have effects on Blanding's turtles that may occur in the area.

It is one thing to "try" and another to actually do them, They also need to avoid disturbance in type 2 and 3 wetlands, no clewatering of wetlands in the winter, and use wildlife friendly erosion control methods. Also, roads should bekept tominimum standards on widths and lanes (this reduces road kills byslowing traffic and reducing the distance turtles need to cross). Who will be overseeing these measures and what agency will follow through to make sure they are done? On Page 32 | was happy tosee, "To the extent practicable, tree clearing will occur between October and April, when migratory songbirds and bats are not nesting or reproducing." This is extremely important as oak wilt is prevalent in the area and we don't wish to have trees cut at the wrong time of the year, Please check with anarboristtomake sure itbsafe before cutting. However, "buckthorn may beleft in the understory along exterior roadways to provide visual screening" is not acceptable, Buckthorn is an invasive species and difficult to remove, but to intentionally leave it when there are alternatives available is unacceptable in Minnesota. A certified landscape architect should oversee this aspect of the project. Page33 states, "Although the proposed project may affect some views from nearby homes, the project proponent has included design elements in the project to minimize visual effects on nearby homeowners." There are residents on all four sides of the development and all wish to have as little sight ofthe development aspossible. Buckthorn isnot anacceptable buffer. "The project will not involve installation of intense lights that would cause glare, nor will it include industries that would emit vapor p|umes.^The developer needs tofollow the lighting codes ofLake Page ]4states, "The project bnot expected tngenerate dust orodors atlevels considered unusual for suburbandeve|opmentconotructionpractices."Thesurruundinganeadoesncthavedense development, the area isnot your "usual suburban deve|opment" "Dust,odors, and noise levels are expected to be slightly higher during project construction than project operations".

VVebelieve this iuinaccurate since the City Council has not voted to amend its current Comprehensive Plan to allow any kind ofresidential development onthis property. 2) The Traffic impact Analysis was based nndata collected inJuly, JUI6 VVeare concerned that this data may significantly under -represent the normal "baseline" traffic volume for the following reasons: ^ Asignificant portion ofLake Elmo Avenue Nwas closed during this time due toconstruction onLake Elmo Ave and inthe Old Village area. • Local schools were not /nsession due tothe Summer break. ° The Tartan Park golf course was not operational during this time, The developer has indicated that they expect 3D,0OO-4S,OUDrounds ofgolf annually which will generate additional traffic volume that may not have been fully reflected in the analysis. 3) We've heard recently that the City Council might opt to schedule a vote on a proposed Comprehensive Plan amendment for this land atthe upcoming December 6`"Council meeting. We feel that a vote on December 6 1h would not allow enough time for a thorough review and consideration ofthe public comments related twthis EAVV. Our understanding iothat |tis common practice by RGU's to not take any legislative action on their comprehensive plan amendments for the area under consideration prior to the completion and public review of an EAVVorEIS and official action onthe pending EAVVorEIS. 4) We would like to raise the question of whether an EIS might be required or simply be prudent for this development. As you undoubtedly know, MN Rule 4410.4400 Subp.14 defines a set of ,onidentialhoudngunitthresho|dswhichtriBgertheneedforamandaUzryE|Sbasedon"the total number of units that the proposer may ultimately develop on all contiguous land owned by the proposer orfor which the proposer has anoption topurchase." Unless the developer b willing toput the golf course acreage into aconservation easement inperpetuity, the total number of housing units which could eventually be built on this entire 477-acre parcel may very well eventually exceed the thresholds defined inthis rule. Our understanding is that development with the potential for "400 unattached units or 600 attached units ... if the project is not consistent with the adopted comprehensive plan" would require a mandatory EIS. Although our neighborhood continues to be amenable to this proposed development in concept, we remain disappointed with the proposed 292-unit housing density and we have concerns about the potential for several hundred additional homes should the golf course someday become financially unsustainable. Given the unique location and exceptional attributes of this property, coupled with the widely held local desire to preserve and protect the rural character of Lake Elmo, we feel that 'Open Space" housing densities similar to those in our neighborhood would be far preferable and more appropriate for this development. Thank you for your continued leadership in managing this important process on behalf of our City.

Lake Elmo, MN55O4Z RE: The Royal Golf Club Residential Development EAW Dear Steven, The Washington Conservation District (WCD) has received and reviewed the above -mentioned EAW. The WCD review focuses on wetlands, erosion and sediment control, natural area management, and stormw/atermana8ement. Based onthis review the VV[Doffers the following comments: Section 7—Cover Types Use of native vegetation and habitat restoration is encouraged in the open space areas, including native vegetated buffers around stormwater treatment systems. Enhancing the 8neenmmycoohdnrthat connects Lake Elmo \onatural areas tnthe east |sencouraged. Section 10—Geology, Soils and Topography / Land Forms Sectioob. Soils and Topography w Compliance with NPDES, watershed' and local requirements will minimize adverse impacts of soil erosion and sedimentation. The VV[D can provide support to the City to ensure compliance as needed. The VV[D recommends phasing the earthwork and grading tothe greatest extent possible to limit the scale and duration ofexposed soils during construction. • Preserve HSG 8 soils to the extent possible. Protecting zones of optimum infiltration from compaction ispreferred w Minimize soil compaction and provide soil restoration in landscaped areas tnenhance infiltration • Deep -rip the soils with a toothed bucket in low or compacted areas to promote infiltration after major construction is complete Section 11 — Water Resources Section iv. Surface Waters * The EAVV indicates the site will meet City and VBVVD infiltration guidelines, which recommend retaining the 1.1" rain event on -site. VV[D encourages the use ofbionetentionto meet the onsite volume retention standards. 8iongention promotes both infiltration and evapotranspiration which more effectively mimics terrestrial hydrology than pure infiltration systems. These systems are designed to be distributed throughout the site and treat small contributing drainage areas, breaking up larger catchments into smaller, more manageable parts. Minimizing the drainage area provides multiple benefits to stomnwatpr treatment, including the potential for reduced infrastructure conveyance costs. p,r,n*",,: /"o.* smzxug, o^» x~`my"u' ^ o°,g' ),Vcrr /vh" n»m1111".9", Jim L°/x To ensure the long-term effectiveness of volume control, the following design specifications are presented for consideration: ° Do not rely on long-term infiltration from unlined stormwater ponds or wet detention basins * Install bionstention4nf i|t ration practices off-line w Include Mow' p|hterandhiXh'Oowbypao * Provide pre-treatment (especially for sediment toprolong the life ofapractice) ° Keep the max water depth to acceptable levels based on soil types and actual infiltration rates ^ Refer tothe Minnesota 3tormwater Manual, 2013 (on MN PCAwebdte) for additional design and implementation considerations The WCD is also serving on the WCA TEP and will provide comments on the wetland permiting through that process.

The Planning Commission held a public hearing on a proposal for a VT - Village Transitional Overlay which would include the former 3M Tartan Park properties on October 24, 2016. The Planning tabled the item to the November 14, 2016 meeting in order for Staff to draft a "Golf Course Community- land use designation rather than the VT proposal. At the November l4th meeting, the Planning Commission discussed the proposed Golf Course Community land use designation, but ultimately recommended approval of an amended VT for only the former 3M Tartan Park property and Terry Emerson's properties. On December oth, the City Council discussed both Village Transitional Overlay District options and the Golf Course Community option and provided guidance to follow the Golf Course Community option, but no action was taken. Because the original public notice was for Village Transitional Overlay District, Staff was required to re -notice the newspaper for the comprehensive plan amendment and to send out public notices to properties within 350 feet of the affected properties for a new public hearing at the Planning Commission. The Commission held a public hearing on 1/9/17 which resulted in a 3-3 vote, with no recommendation to the City Council. ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: The issue before Council is whether to approve the comprehensive land use plan amendment to guide the former 3M Tartan Park properties to GollCourse Community and to amend the comprehensive waste water management plan to expand the MUSA over the former 3m Tartan Park properties. PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: The comprehensive plan amendment consists of 5 changes to the comprehensive land use plan and 4 changes to the comprehensive wastewater management plan as outlined in the Plannin,,, 574' f Report —City Council Regular hen! #11 Meeting Dole: 1/17/2017 Commission report dated 1/9/17. Since the 1/9/17 Planning Commission report was drafted, Staff has determined that the roughly 28-acre Terry Emerson parcel does not fit with the (GCC) Golf Course Community Comprehensive Plan amendment proposal. The Royal Golf Course residential development proposal consists of 292 residential units on 223.62-net acres with a proposed net density of 1.58 dwelling units per acre. This will result in an average MUSA density of 3.07 dwelling units per acre. The Metropolitan Council requires the City maintain an average MUSA density of 3 dwelling units per acre in order maintain a cost-effective efficient regional wastewater system. After further study of Ten-y Emerson's development plans, Staff has determined that his proposal will have a net density of 0.46 dwelling units per acre which does not meet the proposed GCC density of 1.5-2.49 dwelling units per acre. Furthermore, if the Emerson project was included as part of the Royal Golf Plat, the plat would have a net density of 1.43 dwelling units per acre, less than the proposed minimum and Terry Emerson is not willing or able to work with the Royal Golf developer's to plat their properties together. The Emerson project, if added to the MUSA, would lower the average MUSA density to 3.03 dwelling units per acre, putting more pressure on other future developments in the MUSA to develop at the higher ends of the density range of the corresponding zoning districts. Therefore, Staff is recommending the comprehensive plan amendment to GCC and the expansion of the MUSA to only the former 3M Tartan Park properties and not Terry Emerson's property. 30 Review Extension. FIC Golf Course Development, LLC has granted the City a 30-day extension to review the comprehensive plan amendment which expires on 02/09/2017 Planning Commission/Public Hearing. The Planning Commission held the public hearing for the GCC comprehensive plan amendment and at the hearing the following residents spoke in opposition to the project: Terry Emerson, Philip Simonet, Shelli Wilk, Ann Bucheck, Michael Zwiefel, Tim Mandel, Sheila Smith and Stacey Stoffregen. Mr. Simonet spoke on behalf of the Homestead HOA and referenced the attached letter from Dan Rice, President of the Homestead HOA. Shelly Wilk referenced the 160 signature petition in opposition to the project. The City received one letter in favor of the project from Mike Tate (attached). The Planning Commission suggested several edits to the GCC draft mostly consistent with suggestions from the 12/12/2016 Planning Commission meeting (minutes attached) and generally concurred with Staff that the Emerson property did not fit with the GCC. The Commission remains concerned about protection of the golf course from redevelopment in the long run, The Commission split their vote, 3-3, and did not make a recommendation to the City Council. FISCAL IMPACT: The comprehensive plan amendment would allow the Royal Golf residential development to proceed which would provide the City with SAC and WAC fees for up to 292 residential lots, $1,752,000, roughly $500,000 in park dedication or a combination of land and park dedication fees, building pen -nit fees for 292 residential lots, +/- $15,000 per home based on a $500,000 home valuation ($4,380,000). These revenues do not include the increase in property taxes for the golf course and residential homes. The future costs to the city include maintenance of streets, Stryf Report —Cio, Council Meeting Date: 1/1 7/201 7 trails, sanitary sewer mains, watennains, lift stations and other public infrastructure, maintenance of storm water ponding areas (after warranty period), monthly lease payments for street lights, and other public financial responsibilities typically associated with a new development. OPTIONS: Regular Item #11 The City Council has the following options: 1) To adopt Resolution 2017-008 approving the comprehensive land use plan amendment reguiding the former 3M Tartan Park properties from Public/Park to Golf Course Community and to amend the comprehensive wastewater management plan to expand the MUSA; or 2) To deny the comprehensive land use plan amendments with findings for denial to be adopted at the February 7, 2017 City Council meeting. RECOMMENDATION,: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Resolution 2017-008 with the following motion: "Move to adopt Resolution 2017-008 approving the comprehensive plan amendments to guide the former 311 Tartan Park properties to Golf Course Community and to amend the comprehensive waste rvater management plan to expand the MUSA over t/zeformer 3m Tartan Park properties" ATTACHMENTS: • Resolution 2017-008 approving the comprehensive plan amendment to GCC. • Planning Commission Report • Proposed Comprehensive Plan Amendment (with PC edits) • Planning Commission Minutes (draft) dated 1/9117 • Planning Commission Minutes dated 12/12/2016 • Dan Rice letter • Mike Tate letter CITY OF LAKE ELMO WASHINGTON COUNTY STATE OF MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO. 2017-008 A RESOLUTION APPROVING A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT TO CREATE A "GOLF COURSE COMMUNITY" LAND USE DESIGNATION AND TO CHANGE THE LAND USE DESIGNATION FROM PF- PUBLIC AND QUASI -PUBLIC OPEN SPACE TO GOLF COURSE COMMUNITY FOR THE LAND TO BE DEVELOPED AS THE ROYAL GOLF CLUB AND TO AUTHORIZE STAFF TO SUBMIT A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT FOR SAME TO THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL ALONG WITH A REQUEST 7'O THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL TO EXPAND THE lt/IUSA WHEREAS, the City of Lake Elmo (the "City") has established a Comprehensive Plan that provides a compilation of background data, policy statements, standards, and maps, which help to guide the future physical, social, and economic development of the City; and WHEREAS, HC Golf Course Development, LLC (the "Applicant") has submitted an application to the City to amend the Comprehensive Plan, a copy of which is on file in the City Planning Department; and WHEREAS, the request to amend the Comprehensive Plan was submitted by the Applicant along with a Planned Unit Development concept plan for a proposed single family residential golf course development located on the former Tartan Park property to be called "The Royal Golf Club at Lake Elmo;" and WHEREAS, the amendment to the Comprehensive Plan will also require the Metropolitan Council to expand the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (the "MUSA"), which is also be requested; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on January 9, 2017 to consider the Applicant's requests; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission failed to adopt a motion of recommendation to the City Council on the Applicant's requests; and WHEREAS, the City Council reviewed the Planning Commission and public comments regarding the Applicant's requests at its meeting on January 17, 2017; and WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed the Comprehensive Plan amendment and believes that it is consistent with the spirit and intent of the Comprehensive Plan and beneficial by providing a housing option riot currently available in the community.

Planning At their meeting on October 24, 2016, the Planning Commission held a public hearing Commission to discuss the comprehensive plan amendment, then tabled the item to the November Direction: 14, 2016 meeting in order for Staff to draft a "Golf Course Community" land use designation to guide the former Tartan Park area for the Commission's consideration. At the November 1411' meeting, the Planning Commission discussed the proposed Golf Course Community land use designation, but ultimately recommended approval of an amended Village Transitional District that extended over the former Tartan Park property and Terry Emerson's property. Since the Commission's recommendation, the City Council discussed both Village Transitional Overlay District options and the Golf Course Community option and provided guidance to follow the Golf Course Community option, but no action was taken. Because the public notice was for Village Transitional Overlay District, Staff was required to re -notice the newspaper for the comprehensive plan amendment and to send out public notices to properties within 350 feet of the affected properties. The Golf Course Community option is again under Page 2 consideration for the Planning Commission along with updated comprehensive wastewater plan. Review Proposed The attached comprehensive plan amendment consists of 5 changes to the Changes: comprehensive land use plan and 4 changes to the comprehensive wastewater management plan: Comprehensive Land Use Plan Changes: 1) On page 111-9, a new land use category is created called "Golf Course Community" that identifies the former Tartan Park as a local and regional amenity the City wishes to maintain with any development proposal for the property. The new category suggests a future new zoning district. 2) On page III-11, Table 3-B has been updated to reflect proposed density of 1.5- 2.49 and planned land use acreages. 3) Map 3-3, the planned land use map has been updated. 4) On page III-14, "Preservation of Community Amenities" was added which further describes the need and intent of the "Golf Course Community" land use designation. 5) Map 3-4 was updated to reflect the changes to the comprehensive wastewater management plan MUSA changes to accommodate the Royal Golf development. Wastewater Management Plan Changes: 1) On page VI -- 1, reference was made to the Golf Course Community on the former Tartan Park property 2) On page VI — 2, Table 6A Community Forecast for Areas Served by Regional Sewer Service (REC Units) was updated to reflect the addition of the Royal Golf development. 3) On page VI — 3, Table 6B was updated to reflect the increased sewer flows by the addition of the Royal Golf Course development. 4) Maps 6-1 and 6-3 were updated to reflect changes in the MUSA to accommodate the Royal Golf development Considerations: The Planning Commission should review the draft Comprehensive Land Use Plan amendment and the Comprehensive Wasterwater Management Plan amendment as they pertain to the proposed Royal Golf development. The Planning Commission should confirm whether the amendments should include Terry Emerson's property located '12;',:iVirt (wit .1Lrf Conclusion Attachments Page 3 contiguous and southeast of the Royal Golf Course development properties. Please note that the proposed Royal Golf Course development southern road connection to 10'1' Street passes through the Einerson property, but that the Emerson property will likely develop independently of the Royal Golf Course development and subsequent to it. The inclusion of the Emerson property in the comprehensive plan guidance has implications for the future golf course community zoning, The Planning Corrunission is asked to review the proposed updates to the Comprehensive Plan, and provide guidance on changes or additions for Council to consider. The recommended motion is: "Move to recommend approval of the comprehensive plan amendment to create a new land use designation called "Golf Course Community" with updated maps and figures" Comprehensive Land Use Plan and Wastewater Management Plan Amendments. �—��^�y��U�� &�� ~��nnv��n^~UUv~n^_vVvv~ K—K��oo ��nxnv~onK�vnn�—oo� " Option#2 follows the directive of the Planning Commission following their initial review of Option #1. While the Commission was not opposed to Option #1, they expressed concern about whether or not the Village Transition concept would actually control the expansion of municipal services, so they also wished to explore the creation of a new land use category specifically drafted for this very unique and unexpected circumstance (the closing and redevelopment ofTartan Park). The new land use district would beaccompanied byanew zoning district (not yet drafted) togovern development pf the 4UO+acres inand around the former Tartan Park. The zoning would provide incentives such as increased density and access to municipal sewer in return for maintaining and improving upon the golf course amenity. Relation tothe Proposed Royal Golf Project: This option would involve creation of a tailored zoning district to accommodate the proposed redevelopment Vf the Tartan Park Golf Course. |Ocreating such a district, staff would establish controls (as Council may deem necessary) to govern future requests to change the golf course into different land uses. Updating the[ik/s future land use map torequire aODmp[eheOsiYe plan amendment for any such change would add another level of protection. Relation to other lands inthe Corridor: This option would not provide an option to extend sewer beyond the boundaries of the Village Transition Area. Lake Elmo Comprehensive Plan Chapter III — Land Use Plan This section of the Land Use chapter establishes the City's official land use categories and the official Future Land Use Map. The map assigns planned land use types to all parcels within the community to guide current and future planning and development through the year 2030, and is the official land use designation map for the City. The assigned land use designations are intended to shape the character, type and density of future development according to sound planning principles. Any new development, redevelopment, change in land use or change in zoning is required to be consistent with the official land use guidance for each parcel. The official land use plan categories are as follows: RURAL AREA DEVELOPMENT —This category represents the large areas of rural residential development within the City. Common uses found in these areas include working farms, alternative agricultural uses as defined by City Code, and rural single family detached residences. Development in these areas requires 10+ acres, or a conditional use permit to authorize a cluster development meeting the City's Open Space Preservation regulations. Densities are allowed up to 0.45 dwelling units per buildable acre when planned as part of an Open Space Preservation development. No new areas of rural area development are being established by the official land use plan. [Corresponding Zoning District(s): A, RR, OP] RESIDENTIAL ESTATE — This category defines areas developed specifically for large lot single family detached housing typically on 2+ acres of land. No new areas of residential estate are being established by the official land use plan. [Corresponding Zoning District(s): RE] RURAL SINGLE FAMILY — This category defines a large portion of the City that was historically platted for conventional subdivision prior to 2005, but has been and will continue to be serviced by private on -site well and septic systems. Limited locations within this classification are allowed to have two-family dwellings based on zoning. [Corresponding Zoning District(s): R-1, R-21 URBAN LOW DENSITY —The Urban Low Density land use category is intended primarily for single-family detached housing serviced by public sewer and water. This category allows net residential densities from two and one-half (2.5) to four (4) units per acre. Significant new areas of urban low density are guided both within the Old Village and along 1-94. [Corresponding Zoning District: LDR] URBAN MEDIUM DENSITY —The Urban Medium Density land use category allows net residential densities from four and one-half (4.5) to seven (7) units per acre; with greater densities only allowed if deemed appropriate and approved through the PUD process and that meet incentives for density bonus as allowed under the PUD ordinance . This category allows for a variety of housing types including single-family detached, duplexes, townhomes, and small two- and three-story apartment buildings and/or senior living centers. Significant new areas of urban medium density are guided both within the Old Village and along 1-94. [Corresponding Zoning District(s): R-3, MDR) 111-8 Lake Elmo Comprehensive Plan Chapter Ill — Land Use Plan URBAN HIGH DENSITY — The Urban High Density land use category is intended for higher density, compact urban residential development. This category allows for a net residential density range of seven and one-half (7.5) to fifteen (15) units per acre; however zoning may allow a greater net density if approved through the PUD process. The appropriate building height will vary by development and depend upon the characteristics of the development and its surroundings. In addition to residential development, a small proportion of supportive retail and service is also appropriate in this land use category. Retail, service and office beyond those supporting the residential development would only be permitted as part of a mixed -use planned unit development. Significant new areas of urban high density are guided both within the Old Village and along1-94. [Corresponding Zoning District(s): HDRJ GOLF COURSE COMMUNITY In recognition that a Golf Course on the land known as Tartan Park is a jocal and regional amenity the City wishes to maintain, this specialized land use category has been crafted to maximize the likelihood that a golf course can be maintained on the property should a development proposal for the land come forward, [Corresponding Zoning Districtlsl: GCC1 LIMITED BUSINESS — This category defines areas within the City that are allowed to host commercial land uses at a more restricted level than would typically be allowed within a commercially guided area and in areas that are not planned for public sanitary sewer services. No new areas of limited business are being established by the official land use plan. [Corresponding Zoning District(s): LB, LC] COMMERCIAL —This category is intended to accommodate a wide range and scale of commercial uses (such as retail, service, entertainment, and office) throughout the City's planned urban centers. Commercial uses can range from small neighborhood convenience nodes, to community retail areas along major roadways, to large shopping centers, to auto -related commercial uses along freeways. Residential uses are also appropriate as part of a mixed -use commercial development where allowed, with unit densities being determined by either the identified range within the comprehensive plan or to a level deemed appropriate by a planned unit development process. Significant new areas of commercial land use are guided both within the Old Village and along 1-94. [Corresponding Zoning District(s): C, CC, GB] BUSINESS PARK — The Business Park land use category is intended to encourage the creation of significant employment centers that accommodate a diverse mix of office and light industrial uses and jobs. Specific desired attributes of this land use include a diversity of jobs, high development densities and jobs per acre, high quality site and building architectural design, and increased tax revenues for the community. Office, office showroom/warehousing, research and development services, light and high- tech electronic manufacturing and assembly, and medical laboratories are typical uses appropriate for this land use category. Some retail and service uses may be allowed as supporting uses for the primary office and light industrial uses of the employment center. In addition to the Eagle Point Business Park, much of the land between Manning Ave and Keats Ave adjacent to 1-94 is guided for this land use classification.

The scale and types of uses allowable on public/park lands are controlled by the city's conditional use permit process. No new areas of public/park space are currently designated by the new land use plan, but it is recognized that such areas will be created during the development process, and the land use map will need to be updated accordingly. [Corresponding Zoning District(s): P, OSPJ ROAD R.O.W,s — This category encompasses all areas dedicated specifically for use as road right-of-way. it should be noted that not all roads in Lake Elmo are on platted right-of-way, but are rather accommodated by easements over other land use categories. Accordingly, there is more land dedicated to use by roads than is depicted on the existing/planned land use table. New development will be required to dedicate right-of-way to accommodate the proposed road network. OPEN WATER — This category includes all land area in Lake Elmo covered by open water lakes and ponds as identified in the DNR Public Waters Inventory. No new areas of open water are by the official land use plan. The distribution of planned land uses on the official Future Land Use Map is shown on Map 3-3 and is summarized in Table 3-B: "4h:ea Within the Old Village and in areas south of 10Street, specific areas are targeted for potential mixed - use development; however, this designation means different things in both districts. Nlixeti Uses within the Old Village The mixed use designation on property within the Old Village indicates development must adhere to the specific zoning requirements established for mixed use development within the City Code. This type of development will typically see residential, commercial, office, and/or similar uses combined in complimentary ways within the same building. misafd Uses ;;, lull' 1)1 I 0Sti'ett The mixed use designation on property south of 10' Street is intended to spur development by providing maximum flexibility on future land uses, thereby allowing a development proposal to cater to existing market conditions, In the areas designated as possible mixed -use on the Future Land Use Map (Map 3-3), the City's planning process has identified that either the base land use or the adjacent land use designation would be appropriate for the site. These mixed -use areas may be zoned in accordance with the base land use category, or the adjacent land use category provided that: Any such zoning will only be allowed if it is contiguous to property in an adjacent land use category; and The Urban Low Density Residential land use category will not allowed as an alternative land use within mixed -use areas. 111 —10 Lake Elmo Comprehensive Pion Chapter III - Land Use Plan Alternatively, a combination of the uses allowed within the base land use category and future land uses adjacent to a mixed use area may be allowed through a planned unit development process. 1)L‘Lisity Land USA' IiII RESIOENTI.11, Rural Area II a Development Residential 0.1 Estate.; Rural Single 1).66 Family Urban lam 1_5 Density Urban Medillf11 4.5 Density Urban High 7.5 Density Village Urban 1.5 Lose Density Village Urban Medium 2.5 Density iiiI(Course 1,5 COMMERCIAL: Business Park I 7.5 Commercial 4.5 Limited Busink's.i iliag.y Mired 5.0 Use P 018 I.

Standards for building materials, building articulation, design variety and other requirements should be upheld to ensure the quality of the built environment is distinctly Lake Elmo. One of the main benefits of the official land use plan is that the long range planning objective to retain a permanent rural identity is achieved. Under the memorandum of understanding with the Metropolitan Council, a vast majority of the City will be allowed to maintain its rural character and existing land uses. Furthermore, concentrating urbanization adjacent to 1-94 and within the Old Village will result in clear boundaries between the urban and rural portions of the community. Beyond that, the City's desire to protect its sensitive park lands is also achieved. Both Lake Elmo Regional Park and Sunfish Lake Park will continue to be surrounded by agricultural lands and will not be impacted by encroaching urbanization. 1Preservaion of Community Ameniticsi Lake Elmo Regional Park, Sunfish Lake Park, and other (public lands covered by conservation easements will be centerpieces of the City in the decades ahead, and are accordingly guided for oublic/park land uses by this comprehensive plan. One community amenity that does not share the same certainty of continuance is the Tartan Park Golf Course formerly owned by 3M. As a SO -year fixture both for Lake Elmo and the eastern metro, the Tartan Park Golf Course has become a destination within the community that is worth saving if at all possible, To that end the City has guided nearly 430 acres of land in and around the Present golf course as "Golf Course Community.," This special land use guidance is intended to provide incentives —such as increased residential density and access to municipal sewer — to future landowners who are willing to maintain and improve upon the golf course amenity rather than develop the land as a standard OP rural development. A new "Golf Course Community" zoning district will establish the develooment standards for this land use classification. The curved lines separating future land uses on Map 3-3 midway between 1-94 and 10th Street indicate one possible alignment of a future east/west collector roadway envisioned to serve the new development in this area of the City. Future development proposals and their associated engineering studies will ultimately determine the exact alignment of this collector roadway. The final boundary between the proposed different land uses shall ultimately be set by the final location of the east/west collector roadway, whether or not this roadway deviates from the approximate location shown. ---- Commented iSGA31: vue oreIiainp the City adopt 'presertratiun of cornmumly rnen,ties" ao new goal wheel) wP further support th,.?

This plan meets the intent of that agreement and has been drafted to comply with the housing, population, and employment projections asincorporated into the Land Use Plan. The Southeast 1/4 of Section 33 is within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (MUSA) Boundary at this time. By agreement with the City of Oakdale this area discharges to a City of Oakdale sanitary sewer main in Hudson Boulevard. From there it enters the WONE interceptor. Under the agreement with the City mfOakdale, Lake Elmo islimited tothe amount itcan discharge. ��ui�mrf�e��mrP|an The M[ES plans to extend a new sewer connection for the City nfLake Elmo to serve the east 1/2 of Section 33 and all of Section 34. The connection will be near the City's existing lift station, and that lift station will continue tobeactive and maintained bythe City. Additionally, the MCES will extend the Cottage Grove Ravine interceptor to serve the remainder of the City south oflOthStreet, the future golf course communitvsurround\np the former Tartan Park, and the Village Planning Area. The City will install a |U\ station-forcemain system to covey wastewater to the K4[ES interceptor from the Village Planning Area. This lift station'hmrcemain system will be designed to serve the planned 900 new housing units and approximately 20Oexisting housing units. The City plans tobuild this system in 2013, Sanitary sewer service will also be initiated to serve portions of the City south of 10th Street beginning in 2013 by extending gravity sewer in two locations, In the southeast side of Lake Elmo, gravity sewer will be connected to the MCES Cottage Grove Ravine Meter Station in Lake Elmo, and extended north to support development )nthe immediate area ofthe sewer main. |nthe southwest side ofLake Elmo, a gravity sewer and lift station-forcemain system will be constructed to support development in the remaining east >fofSection 33 and in Section 34. The existing units in the Cimarron manufactured home park will be served by regional sewer between ZO20and I030. This flow isincluded inthe forecasts. Cimarron will need toinstall alift station inorder to be served by regional sewer. The existing homes and businesses inthe Village Planning Area of Lake Elmo are assumed to be served by regional sewer between 2013 and 2030. That flow has also been included inthe forecasts.

The map assigns planned land use types to all parcels within the community to guide current and future planning and development through the year 2O3O,and is the official land use designation map for the City, The assigned land use designations are intended tushape the character, type and density offuture development according tosound planning principles. Any new development, redevelopment, change in land use or change in zoning is required to be consistent with the official land use guidance for each parcel. The official land use plan categories are asfollows: RURAL AREA DEVELOPMENT —This category represents the large areas of rural residentia I development within the City. Common uses found in these areas include working farms, alternative agricultural uses asdefined byCity Code, and rural single family detached residences. Development inthese areas requires 10+ acres, or a conditional use permit to authorize a cluster development meeting the City's Open Space Preservation regulations, Densities are allowed upto0.4Sdwelling units per buildable acre when planned aspart cfanOpen Space Preservation development. Nonew areas ofrural area development are being established bythe official land use plan. [Corresponding Zoning District(s): A, RF,OP] RESIDENTIAL ESTATE — This category defines areas developed specifically for large lot single family detached housing typically on2+acres ofland. Nonew areas ofresidential estate are being established by the official land use plan. [Corresponding Zoning Disthct(s): RE] RURAL SINGLE FAMILY — This category defines a large portion of the City that was historically platted for conventional subdivision prior to 2005, but has been and will continue to be serviced by private on -site well and septic systems. Limited locations within this classification are allowed tohave two-family dwellings based on zoning. [Corresponding Zoning District(s): R'l, R'2] URBAN LOW DENSITY — The Urban Low Density land use category is intended primarily for single-family detached housing serviced bypublic sewer and water. This category allows net residential densities from two and one'half(2.S) to four (4) units per acre. Significant new areas of urban low density are guided both within the Old Village and along 1-94. [Corresponding Zoning District: LDR] URBAN MEDIUM DENSITY — The Urban Medium Density land use category allows net residential densities from four and one-half (4.5) to seven (7) units per acre; with greater densities only allowed if deemed appropriate and approved through the PUD process and that meet incentives for density bonus asallowed under the PUDordinance . This category allows for mvariety ufhousing types including dng|e-fami|ydetached'dup|exes,townhomes,andsmaUtxo'andthroe'storyapartmentboUdings and/or senior living centers.

[Corresponding Zoning Dbthct(s): R-3' MDR] U| —8 Lake Elmo Comprehensive Plan Chapter 1/1 — Land Use Plan URBAN HIGH DENSITY —The Urban High Density land use category is intended for higher density, compact urban residential development. This category allows for anet residential density range of seven and one-half (7.5) to fifteen (15) units per acre; however zoning may allow a greater net density if approved through the PUDprocess. The appropriate building height will vary bydevelopment and depend upon the characteristics o/the development and its surroundings. |naddition toresidential development, a small proportion of supportive retail and service is also appropriate in this land use category. Retail, service and office beyond those supporting the residential development would only be permitted as part of mixed -use planned unit development, Significant new areas of urban high density are guided both within the Old Village and along 1'94. [Corresponding Zoning Dbtrict(s): HDR] GOLF COURSE COMMUNITY — In recognition that a Golf Course on the land known as Tartan Park is a local and regional amenitv the Citv wishes to maintain, this specialized land use categoory has been crafted to maximize the likelihood that a golf course can be maintained on the nronertv should a development proposal for the land come forward, Land within the Golf Course [ommunitvDistrict set aside for golf course use shall be re -guided to the Public/Park land use category in coniunction with pnvfuture development, [Corresponding Zoning DicLhc((s):G[[\ LIMITED BUSINESS —This category defines areas within the City that are allowed to host commercial land uses at a more restricted level than would typically be allowed within a commercially guided area and inareas that are not planned for public sanitary sewer services. Nonew areas oflimited business are being established by the official land use plan. [Corresponding Zoning 0strict(s): LB, U] COMMERCIAL —This category is intended to accommodate a wide range and scale of commercial uses (such as retail, service, entertainment, and office) throughout the City's planned urban centers. Commercial uses can range from small neighborhood convenience nodes, to community retail areas along major roadways, to large shopping centers, tuauto're|ated commercial uses along freeways. Residential uses are also appropriate as part of mixed -use commercial development where allowed, with unit densities being determined by either the identified range within the comprehensive plan or to alevel deemed appropriate byaplanned unit development process. Significant new areas of commercial land use are guided both within the Old Village and along 1-94, [Corresponding Zoning BUSINESS PARK —The Business Park land use category is intended to encourage the creation of significant employment centers that accommodate a diverse mix of office and light industrial uses and jobs. Specific desired attributes of this land use include a diversity of jobs, high development densities and jobs per acre, high quality site and building architectural design, and increased tax revenues for the communhy. Office, office showroom/wa rehousing, research and development services, light and high- tech electronic manufacturing and assembly, and medical laboratories are typical uses appropriate for this land use category. Some retail and service uses may beallowed assupporting uses for the primary office and light industrial uses ofthe employment center. |oaddition tothe Eagle Point Business Park, much ofthe land between Manning Ave and Keats Ave adjacent to|-94is guided for this land use classification. [Corresponding Zoning DioLhct(s): BP] U|—D Lake Elmo Comprehensive Plan Chapter /0—Land Use Plan PUBU[/PANK—Thiscategory defines lands that include publicly owned facilities, places ufworship, public parks, and privately owned recreational facilities. The scale and types ofuses allowable on public/park lands are controlled by the city's conditional use permit process. Nonew areas of public/park space are currently designated by the new land use plan, but it is recognized that such areas will be created during the development process, and the land use map will need to be updated accordingly.

OPEN WATER — This category includes all land area in Lake Elmo covered by open water lakes and ponds as identified inthe DNKPublic Waters Inventory. Nonew areas ofopen water are bythe official land use plan, The distribution of planned land uses on the official Future Land Use Map is shown on Map 3-3 and is summarized inTable 3-B: Within the Old Village and inareas south ofloth Street, specific areas are targeted for potential mixed - use deve)opment;however, this designation means different things inboth districts. Mixed Uses within the Old ViUa�c The mixed use designation onproperty within the Old Village indicates development must adhere to the specific zoning requirements established for mixed use development within the City Code.

Standards for building materials, building articulation, design variety and other requirements should be upheld to ensure the quality of the built environment is distinctly Lake Elmo. One of the main benefits of the official land use plan is that the long range planning objective to retain a permanent rural identity isachieved. Under the memorandum ofunderstanding with the Metropolitan Council, avast majority of the City will beallowed tomaintain its rural character and existing land uses. Furthermore, concentrating urbanization adjacent to 1-94 and within the Old Village will result in clear boundaries between the urban and rural portions ofthe community. Beyond that, the [it\/sdesire to protect its sensitive park lands is also achieved. Both Lake Elmo Regional Park and Sunfish Lake Park will continue to be surrounded by agricultural lands and will not be impacted by encroaching urbanizatjon.

This plan meets the intent of that agreement and has been drafted to comply with the housing, population, and employment projections asincorporated into the Land Use Plan. I��y��m��x��i�u��*v�r The Southeast 1/4 of Section 33 is within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area (K4UlA) Boundary atthis time. By agreement with the City of Oakdale this area discharges to a City of Oakdale sanitary sewer main in Hudson Boulevard. From there it enters the WONE interceptor. Under the agreement with the City ofOakdale, Lake Elmo islimited tothe amount itcan discharge. The MCES plans to extend a new sewer connection for the City of Lake Elmo to serve the east 1/2 of Section 33 and all of Section 34. The connection will be near the City's existing lift station, and that lift station will continue tobeactive and maintained bythe City. Additionally, the MCES will extend the Cottage Grove Ravine interceptor to serve the remainder of the City south of10thStreet, the future golf course cnmmunitvsurrounding the former Tartan Park, and the Village Planning Area. The City will install alift sta{ion4fooemainsystem \ocovey wastewater tuthe K8CBinterceptor from the Village Planning Area, This lift station-forcemain system will be designed to serve the planned 900 new housing units and approximately 2O0existing housing units. The City plans tobuild this system in 2013. Sanitary sewer service will also be initiated to serve portions of the City south of 10th Street beginning in 2013 by extending gravity sewer in two locations. In the southeast side of Lake Elmo, gravity sewer will be connected tothe K4[ES[ottage Grove Ravine Meter Station in Lake Elmo, and extended north to support development inthe immediate area ufthe sewer main, |nthe southwest side cfLake Elmo, a gravity sewer and lift station-fooemain system will be constructed to support development in the remaining east X of Section 33 and in Section 34. The existing units in the Cimarron manufactured home park will be served by regional sewer between ZO2Oand 203U. This flow is included in the forecasts. Cimarron will need to install a lift station in order tobeserved byregional sewer. The existing homes and businesses inthe Village Planning Area ofLake Elmo are assumed to be served by regional sewer between 2013 and 2030. That flow has also been included inthe forecasts, V|—l Lake Elmo Comprehensive Plan [hapterN—WastewoterFacilities The City has identified an area along Olson Lake Trail in the Tri-Lakes area that will be served with public sanitary sewer via an extension from the City of Oakdale.

There would be 5 changes to the comprehensive land use plan. 1) a new land use category called "Golf Course Community" 2) updated density of 1.5-2,49 3) updated planned land use map 4) "Preservation of Community Amenities" will be added which describes the need for "Golf Course Community" land use 5) updated map to reflect the changes to the MUSA. The City has broad discretion when reguiding property. The Golf Course Community specifically ties the residential development to the golf course and can not be redeveloped if the golf course is eliminated. The Royal Golf development will be a PUD and if an amendment was requested to eliminate the golf course, it would be inconsistent with the Comprehensive Plan and would be denied. There are 4 changes to the Comprehensive wastewater management plan 1) reference made to the Golf Course Community on former Tartan Park property 2) Community Forecast for areas served by regional sewer service (REC Units) was updated to reflect the addition of Royal Golf development 3) Table 6B updated to reflect the increased sewer flows by the addition of Royal Golf Course Development 4) Maps were updated to reflect changes in the MUSA to accommodate the Royal Golf development. Staff is recommending not guiding the Emerson property to Golf Course Community at this time because 1) net density is .46 if platted alone, Tess than 1.5 min 2) if platted with Roayl Golf, net density would be 1.43, brings the average d.u.a. to lower than 1.5 3) not ready to plat at this time 4) Brings MUSA average from 3.7 with RG to 3.3 d.u.a. A letter was received from the Homestead Homeowners Assoc which asked for less density and greater buffers. An email was received from Mike Tate giving support for the Golf Course Community. Dodson stated that he is still concerned about the road access to 10th Street. Wensman stated that he is under the impression that there is an agreement with Mr. Emerson for the road access. Williams stated that on page III-13, the changes in blue do not incorporate the changes that the Planning Commission recommended at their meeting on December 12, 2016. He is wondering if this property was developed as an OP development, could the Golf Course be included as the open space. Wensman stated that would be a possibility, but there would be no urban services. The Shoreland ordinance requires urban services, so there is a conflict in the codes. Lake Elmo Planning Commission Minutes; 1-9-17 Clark Schroeder, Royal Golf, stated that the road going through the Emerson property is an absolute according to the City Engineer for Cul-cle-Sac length and for the gravity system going through there. The city will own a lift station on the Emerson property with aneasement through that property. Public Hearing opened at 8:06 prn Terry Emerson, 2204 Legion Lane Circle N, he is not interested in being with the Golf Course Community, but he would like to see the MUSA line include his property because he believes the sewer should be along the lake and that is what the Shoreland Ordinance calls for. Hedoesn't see any ordinance that his property would fit under, Emerson stated that this is a 28 acre piece of property and he is looking to put in about 13 lots with sewer and water, Philip Simonet, 11lIS14mStreet, hefeels the density isway too high and is inconsistent with the mission statement of Lake E|nnn. He would like to see some restrictive covenants for the golf course not being redeveloped, Ile feels that the setbacksshould bemuch more substantial. SheUi Wilk, m � 11253 14 Street, she is pleased that the City is looking at Golf Course Community instead ofthe Village Transition, However, she has apetionsigned byover I6Oresidents asking for Rural Area Development onthis property. This ismore inline with what isinthe current Comprehensive Plan. She would like tosee lower densities to protect the natural resources in this area which is more in line with the O0R recommendations, Ann Bucheck,Z]O1Legion Ave, she feels that this comprehensive plan istailored toone property and might even beconsidered spot zoning, She doesn't believe that Tartan Park isaCity Amenity, but was aprivate amenity. She also feels that there should bea conservation easement Vnthe open space. The city decided that the sewer would bc kept south of10mStreet and inthe Village Area. What has changed? Why are vvegiving upthe low density that was supposed tobeNorth of1[y»Street. She feels that this property could easily bedeveloped inanOPdevelopment, The 5hore|andOrdinance does not require that adevelopment besevvened. Michael Zwjefel, 2055 Manning, the developer purchased this property as a golf course. There was no guarantee that anything else would be allowed there when the property vxaspurchased. Ifthe City bgoing toaccommodate residential, heisstill confused on why anything other than what is around the rest of the area would be allowed. Stacey Stoffregen, 2390 Legion Lane, she is concerned about the safety of 201h Street for biking and pedestrians. |tisalready congested and will get increasingly sowith additional housing. Lake Elmo Planning Commission Minutes; 1-9-17 4 Tim Mandel, 2479 Lisbon Ave, hefeels that when comprehensive Plan changes are made, |taffects alot ofpeople. Hefeels that itisanimportant document that should not change frequently, This Golf Course will bedoing alot ofthings such as the fitness center tomake money, These are all things that people have toget to, which will create a lot of traffic. Public Hearing closed at8:3Oprn Williams is concerned that there is no significant guarantee that the golf course will remain. Heisconcerned that double the houses could beput in, The DNRand P[A consider community septic as legitimate public sewer. He is interested in having this OP density served with a community septic with the golf course being in a conservation easement. VVensman stated that the DNR states that municipal sewer is required J available. Our ordinance currently requires it. That ordinance isunder discussion later onthis agenda, Lundquist stated that she feels itshould besevvenedbecause ofthe Shore|and. Her concern istoensure the open space. She isalso concerned about the setback. She feels itshould bemuch greater. She isconcerned about 2O*Street. |tisalready unsafe and with more traffic, it will be even worse. Dodson isconcerned about preserving the gulf course for open space. His concern with using the open space ordinance isthat |tcan not have municipal sewer, Heisnot afan ofcommunity septic. Heisalso concerned that ifthe Emerson property isnot included inthe MUSAtonight, hewill have adifficult time getting itput inatafuture date. Wensman stated that if we went down to a minimum density of .46, this would bring us below the 3.00 required by the Met Council and this Comprehensive Plan would not be Williams stated that we do not need more sewered development to meet Met Council guidelines. Until 2O11,itwas not public and was not anasset ofthe City and vvnneed tn stop referring to it as something that needs to be preserved. K4/S/VV: Williams/Dodson, move to postpone consideration of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment until we receive an analysis of the West metro golf course case from the City Attorney, Motion was withdrawn. Larson wants people torecognize that this isogood development, There are some negatives, that have room for discussion, but this is a very unique and historic golf course. Administrator Handt stated that she did receive a memo from the City Attorney today. Lake Elmo Planning Commission Minutes; 1-9-17 The court concluded that the deciding factor was whether the denial ofthe Comprehensive Plan Amendment leaves the property owner with any reasonable use. If there is a less dense development that is economically viable, the court could make a different decision. Williams isstill concerned that once this properiydevelops with the golf course, at some future date when the golf course is no longer viable, a developer will come forward to redevelop the golf course and the City will have no alternative but to allow housing there as a park or open space at that time is not a reasonable use. The only way toprotect against that istoput itinaconservation easement. Lundquist asked how much of the land is required to remain open with the Shoreland Ordinance. VVensrnanstated that aminimum nf5OY6ofthe Shore|andarea needs to remain open. Most ofthe golf course isnot inShore|nnd. Kreimer asked about developments on golf courses in other communities. He is wondering if when people buy these homes if they are just risking that it will always remain agolf course. Williams stated that the significant thing here inthat the City is extending sewer and having more density. Sheila Smith, 2121 Legion Lane, residents that surround the golf course are already in this situation, They bought their homes believing that Tartan Park would always be there and they are finding out that |sriot the case. She bconcerned about the density with orwithout the future ofthe golf course. Ifthe golf course fails, itwill beeven more dense. Clark Schroeder, Royal Golf Course, ifyou have aprivate golf course, everyone inthe development would own part of the golf course and it would be run by the HOA and there are requirements for all ofthe homeowners. They donot feel that isaviable business model. They feel that for the golf course tobesuccessful, itwould need tobe debt free and they need the density they are proposing for that to happen. Williams would like something put inwhere ittalks about the preservation ofthe golf course that itstate some kind ofaperiod oftime. They had previously talked about a25 year guarantee. VVensnoanstated that itseems unenforceable. Williams stated that they could put it in and the City Council could take it out after talking to the city attorney. Dodson stated that hewould strike that whole sentence. M/S/P: Williams /Dodson, move to recommend adding to page 111-3 one expansive open space that does not share the same certainty of continuance, Vote: 6-0, motion carried M/S/P: Williams /Lundquist, move to make the following changes: change the words "destination within the community" to an "expansive open space" that is worth saving if atall possible. Atthe end ofthe paragraph, delete "amenity rather than develop the land as a standard 0P rural development", Vote; 6-0, motion carried unanimously. Lake Elmo Planning Commission Minutes; 1-9-17 6 Kreimer asked if these additional 292 units can be used to reduce the number of required units south nf1O'^orinthe Village Area. VVensrnonstated that anything that is already in the MU5A has to remain at o nnininnunn of3. We need to stay pretty much at what we already have to meet the 3 tiers of the Comprehensive plan such as affordability /nthe Comprehensive Plan. Williams stated that there is a practical limit to what vvecan lower the density to. He doesn't think that they can goany lower ifthey want tohave sewer there. Dodson stated that alternate uses for that pnopery could beanopen space development or rural residential or residential estates. Dodson is leaning towards residential estates vs. golf course community because there is too much uncertainty around the golf course. Williams asked Dodson for clarification if he would rather have this property rezoned residential estates rather than having a golf course. Dodson stated that he vvou|d. Williams stated that we don't need a golf course in Lake Elmo as there are many golf courses within driving distance. Williams likes the idea of residential estates. Lundquist stated that this property was sold by one private property to another. Her concern is that the City needs to be accountable for protecting the Community and upholding our standards, but also recognizing the rights ofthe property owner. She isuncomfortable with the conversation of rezoning it to residential estates. Williams stated that at the Comprehensive Plan level, they would be talking about zoning it as rural development which would include AG, RRand RE. The City has the most discretion atthe Comprehensive Plan level aslong asitisareasonable use ofthe land. Handt stated that she would encourage them to either approve this or deny this tonight. The whole reason that this is back is that what is talked about needs to be advertised. They do not have to go into the details of if they do not do the golf course community, what would they like ittobeatthis time. They can either approve this Comprehensive Plan Amendment, orstart developing findings for denial. Kreimer asked if the City Council asked them to start developing standards for the Golf Course Community. Handt stated that they did. There was interest from the Council in the Golf Course Community and the Council asked that the Public Hearing be held to talk about it. Williams stated that hewas told byatleast one member ofthe City Council to be sure and tell the City Council what the Planning Commission wants, not what they think the City Council wants, VVensnnanstated that ifthe Planning Commission wants tngowith a different land use designation, they would have todeny this application. The [iywould then have to advertise and hold apublic hearing for adifferent land use designation, Dodson stated that he takes into consideration private property rights of one property and weighs itagainst the property rights ofthe surrounding neighbors. Those 2are sometimes inconflict with one another. Lake Dlnnn Planning Commission Minutes; 1'9-17 7 M/S/. VVU|ianns/Dodson,move torecommend denial ofthe comprehensive plan amendment proposal tocreate anew land use designation called "Golf Course Community" with the following findings 1) we do not need any more sewered units 2) the current Comprehensive Plan reflects the overwhelming desire of Lake Elmo residents to limit residential growth and sevvered growth 3) one of Lake Brno's core values is to preserve rural character 4) sewered development north of loth street does not preserve the rural character S\there is a significant but unknown level ofrisk that the golf course would be redeveloped into more housing in the future 6) there are a significant amount of Lake Elmo residents that live in the area that object to the project based ondensity that would come with the sewer, Vote: 3'3,motion did not pass, with Lundquist, Larson and Kreimer voting against. Kneinoerisnot infavor ofdenying the proposal, Hefeels this development has alot to offer and that the developer has done a lot to make this a very nice development. He is concerned about what else this could be if this is denied. Larson agrees that itwould be unfortunate ifthey let this development go. He doesn't think anything this good will come forward in the future. Williams asked Kreimer for clarification of what he thinks the good aspects of the development are. Kreinnerstated that hethinks the types ufhouses vsthe types of houses insome ofthe other developments wehave are much more quality. He feels they are high value homes that will make a beautiful neighborhood which would be a great asset tothe City. Larson thinks the connectivity and the ab|i|itytohave access to all the landscapes of the golf course and environmental features that will be connected by trail system. K4/S/: Kreimer/Lundqui5t, move to recommend approval of the comprehensive plan amendment proposal tocreate anew land use designation called "Golf Course [onnrnun|tv",vviththeanncndrnentsasdbcussedinthe2prcviousmnotions,vviththe following findings 1) golf course community would protect a regional amenity that the City wishes to maintain 2) the sewered development would protect the Shoreland from pollution ]\ the densities would support anefficient level for municipal sewer 4)the golf course is another form of open space 5) there are a significant of residents around the property that object to the density and subsequent traffic increase, Vote: 3-3, motion did not pass, with Griffin, Williams and Dodson voting against. Dodson is concerned with the thought process of relying on the fact that this developer isaquality developer, Things can change and that doesn't always maintain throughout the development. K4/S/F: VVU|ia»`s/Dodson,move torecommend tothe City Council that this land be guided for rural development with a preference for residential estates zoning, Vote/2-4, Lake Elmo Planning Commission Minutes; 1-9-17 8 Rick Packer, Royal Golf, stated that they have initiated the process torcgu|dethis property. The Planning Commission has chosen not togive arecommendation tothe City Council. Hedoesn't understand why the City has aburning desire toguide this property rural development.

The preliminary plat was approved under the MDR land use category, but the rezoning was not done with the preliminary plat. Dodson asked ifthere was aproposed development. VVensrnanstated that there isan approved preliminary plat and the property owners are looking for a developer to proceed with the project. There are conditions that would need tobemet before the project can final plat, but it is important that the other half of 51' street be built.

Dodson asked about construction traffic. VVensnnanstated that itwould access off nf Keats. Dunn asked about the wetland buffers and why they are solenient. VVensrnonstated that this development was allowed to move forward with some of those wetland buffers in the lot, which should not be. Once it is part of the lot, there is not a lot of control as to what the owner does and the buffer is not always maintained. Moving forward, the City will ensure that the wetland buffers are outside of private lots. Lake Elmo Planning Commission Minutes; 12-12-16 Griffin asked ifthere iscurrently agrading permit. VVensnnanstated that they are waiting for anas-built grading plan. They will begrading with their development agreement. Williams asked if the phasing should be added to the subdivision ordinance.

Dunn asked what the threshold would befor atraffic light onKeats Ave. VVensrnan stated that this plat had County review and they did not feel it warranted a traffic light at this time. Williams would like to see some language of the wetland buffer protection mentioned in the HOAagreement and possibly monument signs inthe lot. This should be added to condition number 4. Williams would like language added to condition number 6 to state that the requested modifications are from the Planning Director in the letter dated November 30, 2016. Williams would like condition number 7 to state written permission from Xcel Energy.

Business Item — Golf Course Community Discussion Williams stated that at the last City Council, they voted to have staff look at an updated Comprehensive Plan amendment toallow agolf course community. Williams looked at itand thinks that there should besome changes inthe wording. There islanguage about the Village Transition area. |fthe golf course community option moves forward, there isnot Village Transition area sothat language should beeliminated. VVensnnan suggested referring tothe former Tartan Park area. Williams would like toreplace the reference of "destination" with "an expanse of open space". He would like to replace "rather than develop the land as a standard OP rural develop" with "for at least 25 Years" because a golf course development could be done as an OP if the golf course was put into open space. Hewants to protect the City and residents that purchase a home around the golf course for atleast 2Syears, That would b2until ZO4Owhich iSwhen the next Comprehensive Plan would be. VVensrnanstated that there would beapublic Lake Elmo Planning Comn-tission Minutes; 12-12-16 4 hearing for this item and they will beable tnweigh inagain inearly January. Williams thinks these recommendations should bepassed along tothe City Council. Dunn wants people to come to this development with confidence that what they think they are getting iswhat they will get. She thinks there should besome assurance that the golf course will stay. She doesn't see why anyone would object tVhaving that guarantee. M/S/P: Williams/Dunn, move to forward the suggested changes regarding Golf Course community tothe City Council, Vote: Jc0,motion carried unanimously, Rick Packer, Royal Golf Club, they first brought an application forward for Village Transition atthe otaff'ssuggestion. They came tothe Planning Commission and the Commission thought there should bespecial zoning. The staff went back and prepared the Golf Course Community recommendation, Atthe public hearing, itwas decided that itreally didn't get them anywhere with the Golf Course Community, sothe recommendation that moved forward to the City Council was the Village Transition, At the City Council, it came back around and the City Council went back to the Golf Course Community. Last week they were told that this would have tobenanoticedfor Public Hearing again onJanuary 9y» 2017. Hofeels that itisnot appropriate that they talk about this tonight, but should be talked about atthe public hearing on January 911, 2017. Dunn does not feel it is inappropriate to talk about things in advance of the public hearing just toget ideas out there. Williams -stated that they are not taking any vote tonight onthe entire proposed amendment. They are only looking atpossible changes tobring forward tothe City Council inpreparation for the public hearing. Williams feels they are an informal recommendation for the City Council to look at and accept or reject, Dodson stated that it is in their discretion to recommend to the City Council as they see fit. Healso stated that the Planning Commission meetings are open tothe Business Item — Village Parkway Discussion There are anumber ofpending projects that will becoming forward that will involve the Village Parkway and there are afew issues with it. VVensnnanhas been reviewing the design of the Village Parkway and he has some questions and has identified some potential issues. There are 3 potential projects coming forward, the Village Pork Preserve, GnnyeaWest and the ZignagoInsurance Building. VVensnnanwent through where the Village Parkway isand that there are 3 different designs. There isazero setback assuming that there isanurban sidewalk such as/nthe Village. There is a problem with the Village Parkway design such in Easton Village where the trees are planted between the sidewalk and the boulevard. The trees need tobn Lake Elmo Planning Commission Minutes; 12-12-16 planted outside of the sidewalk area to prevent tree damage and such from snowplowing. A summary of the design is that it is designed to Municipal State Aid Road Standards, the design profile determines parking, access control (no residential driveways allowed), and final design has no center medians, irrigation required and theming. The irrigation for 511 street isquite expensive and the thcnningwas thrown out for Smstreet. Another question bwhere and when should l4foot sidewalks berequired, Arbor Glen does not have azero lot line. Uovvewant consistency? The setback isbetween zero and 3Ofeet. |twould not look good ifitfluctuated nnasite bysite basis. Dunn asked why on 3911 Street the -sidewalk on one side is a concrete and the sidewalk onthe other side basphalt. She isnot happy with the result. She bnot happy with the VMXzoning and feels that itreally needs tobelooked at. She calculates that there could be 5000 people in a very small area. VVensnnanwants tobeahead ofthe setback issue for when the Z' egopnjectoznnes forward. /fthey are rezoned toVK4>(they will probably ask for that zero lot line. Williams thinks that with the new City Council coming anboard, the Planning Commission should get their feedback before they do a lot of work on this. Dodson is struggling because he sees the VMX as not being an office building, but more of shops. VVensrnanstated that office building isanallowed use inVK4X. Uses change once a building is up. Dodson stated that the zero lot line to him is more ofa retail use. Wensman stated that it is a question of how far out of the core Village they want VMX togoand how big they want the Village tobe. Fields stated that there needs to be a critical amount of housing within walking distance tostimulate pedestrian oriented retail. VVensnnanstated that there needs tobea strong vision to reassure businesses that you are working towards that vision. Williams suggests to bring this back to the first Planning Commission meeting to look at the Zignago building as the first opportunity to look at the VMX and the vision for the Village, and maybe limit the discussion tV39mStreet. Fields stated that he believes that the vision for the Village was a strong desire to have pedestrian oriented retail. Hethinks that the pedestrian oriented retail inLake Elmo would not be able to compete with the car oriented retail in the metro area, because Lake Elmo is a fairly low density City. It would be difficult to be competitive. Dodson thinks the theming needs to be looked at and that there should be consistency throughout the City.

Lake Elmo has long prided itself on being a community which values open space, low -density development, slow, intentional growth and preservation of our natural resources. These are the defining attributes which first attracted many ofus tothis City from other neighboring communities. Many attributes of the current Lake Elmo Comprehensive Plan were defined to intentionally reflect these shared community values, chief among these the decision to concentrate most of our higher density future housing growth inthe corridor immediately adjacent to|'94. We understand that the decision made by 3M to sell this property has created an unexpected and challenging dilemma for the City. What vvedon't understand iswhy Lake Elmo appears tobegiving substantially greater weight in prioritizing the developer's interests ahead of the values, desires and interests oflocal residents. Our issue is not with the general idea of creating a new "Golf Course Community" zoning designation for this property. But wedohave anumber ofconcerns with the current proposal which has been presented for your consideration, Specifically: 1\ The density of permitted residential development is excessive and completely incongruous with the character of the adjacent neighborhoods. The Minnesota DNR has stated this identical conclusion. Our homeowners feel strongly that the City should not allow an urban residential density of 1.5 to 2.49 units per acre on property which many residents consider to be one of the "Jewels" of Lake Elmo. In fact, doing so seems tocontradict the City ufLake E|rno's Mission Statement which "is to provide quality public services in afisca||y responsible manner while preserv/ngthe City's open space chorucber" |nour opinion, the maximum allowed density should bereduced hy3O-4OY6, 2> The purported rationale for allowing high -density sem/eredresidential development here isto preserve what was the Tartan Park golf course which is characterized as "an important local and regional amenity that the City wishes tornaintain" Yet, the proposal you are being asked to approve fails to achieve that very objective because there are no binding protective easements topoeventfutureresidential development mnthe golf course land. Instead, you are being advised that "staff will establish controls... to govern future requests to change the golf course into different land uses." This isaninsufficient and extremely weak mechanism which offers the City and its residents almost nothing of value. In our opinion, the City should insist upon substantially stronger protective assurances to prevent future residential development onthe land now being designated for golf. 3\ The nninirnuno required 100'footsetback requirement completely fails to reflect a reasonable balance of interests between the existing, adjacent Lake Elmo residents and this developer. Our neighborhood association has had several direct, professional discussions with the developer and his team; they appear willing to make some accommodations related to setbacks, shielding and plat location. But these are not legally binding commitments and the 100-foot setback defined in your proposal would substantially impair property values and diminished enjoyment ofthehornesinourneighhorhoodifthedeve|nperrescindsthese accommodations. VVeremind the Planning Commission that the design ofthe proposed 18- hole golf course and housing units could easily have been done in a manner which resulted in little or no detrimental impact to the property owners in our neighborhood. |norder tostrike a better balance between the interests of all parties, we would ask the Planning Commission to consider a minimum 500 foot setback requirement between the Homestead and Tartan Park property lines. Finally, we are concerned that amending the Comprehensive Plan in a reactive manner which so clearly favors the interests of one developer creates a dangerous and potentially expensive legal precedent for the City. How will the City respond the next time a large property owner threatens, as this developer has, to "sell to the highest bidder" if their demands for a more economically favorable zoning designation are not met? The residents ofLake Elmo are hardly clamoring tVhave Z8U+new honneshui|there. We strongly urge the Planning Commission toamend the proposed Golf Course Community zoning designation to address the concerns stated above before advancing this proposal for City Council consideration.

In the City's recent review of the proposed plan, the addition of turn lanes along 20' Street N was suggested due to the size of the proposed development. As noted at a meeting with the City, in lieu of specific analyses, they have previously required turn lanes when a new road will provide access to 25 or more residential homes. The purpose of this memorandum is to examine the traffic along the IO" Street N corridor and determine if left or right turn treatments are warranted and justified. Conclusions Based upon the information and analysis presented in this memorandum, the proposed Tartan Park Redevelopment is expected to generate a total of 3,434 vehicle trips per day to and from the residential and golf course components. Based on the trip distribution from the Traffic Impact Study, approximately 41 percent of the development traffic, or 1,402 vehicles, will access the site along 2 0,h Street N throughout a typical vveekday. Further sub -dividing this volume amongst the access driveways, a single access intersection on 20'�' Street N isexpected to have a maximum of84Svehicles per day. The expected operations for each site intersections on 2OmStreet N are very good, with no concerns regarding delays or queuing, None of the criteria for the nine warrants for turn lane treatments, as developed by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), are met at these study intersections either, It should be noted that the intersection of Z[y» Street N/20" Street Court N is at the edge of satisfying the criteria for aright turn lane using the projected 2O2Odaily volumes. Using the analysis presented in this report, turn lanes are not recommended at the intersections ofZ[Y^ Street N with 2U'^Street Court N, with the proposed Western Access, or with the Golf Course Access (Eastern Access) based on: * No operational concerns at the intersections with all movements and the overall intersection operating at a Level of Service (LOB & • No queuing concerns at the intersections with all single approach lanes to each intersection experiencing a95~^percentile queue length ofunder one vehicle. • Warrants one through nine are not satisfied. The characteristics and volumes along the 20m Street N corridor are all such that safe and satisfactory operations without turn lanes is expected and the addition of turn lanes would add unnecessary and unused additional capacity. Therightturn|anevo|umewarnantwasfu|fiUedbvthe2OmSt/eetN/Mannin8Trai|Ninteoecdon,vvhen analyzing the intersection with Z(Y" Street N as the mainline. However, considering the very good operations and lack of vehicle queuing, we recommend strengthening and expanding the shoulder to create a partial right turn lane on the eastbound approach as opposed to a standard right turn lane and taper. Right -of -Way should also be set aside for a standard right turn lane in the future if additional development and future traffic growth occurs within the area. Spack Consulting Existing and Future Conditions The redevelopment site is encompassed by County State -Aid Highway 17 (CSAH 17), also known as Lake Elmo Avenue North, [ountyStatc`4id Highway 10 ([S4H lO)' Minnesota State -Aid Street lO7 (K8SAS 207), also known as 20*St/eet North, Minnesota State -Aid Street I15 (MSAS llS), also known as Manning Trail North, and County State -Aid Highway 1S([SAHlS)'also known as Manning Avenue North.

Turning movement countswere collected at the study intersections on the two separate days in July 2016 and averaged to create accurate 24-hour turning movement counts. The Average Daily Traffic (ADT) on ZO'^Street N based on these counts is approximately 6OOvehicles per day, The full turning movement counts, provided in I5'rninute increments, are in the appendix of the Traffic Impact Study for this development. Based on the concept plan, which can also be found in the appendix of the Traffic Impact Study, the development is proposed to provide 293 single-family housing units and an lO'ho|e golf course, Athp generation analysis was performed based on the methods and rates published in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (I7E)Trip Generation Manual, 9mEdition. Using |TELand Use codes 2IOand 43O' Single Family Homes, and Golf Course, the proposed site will generate: 0 1,7I7vehicles entering and 1'7l7exiting the development per day (total nf3434thps). * 84vehicles entering and l7Jvehicles exiting during the AK4peak hour. 0 2IZvehicles entering and l34vehicles exiting during the PMpeak hour.

The highest turning volumes are expected at the redeveloped Golf Course Access (Eastern Access), which exists for the same purpose today and is not provided with turn lanes. Spack Consulting 3 of 6 20th Street N Turn Lane Evaluation The daily projected 2020 turning movement counts along the 20th Street N corridor were also determined and can be seen in Figure 2 below. Figure 2: 2020 Daily Turning Movement Counts Using these daily turning movement projections for the year 2020, the following future ADTs are expected on 20th Street: • 1,500 vehicles per day between Lake Elmo Avenue N/20th Street N and 20th Street N/20th Street Court N. • 1,300 vehicles per day between 20th Street N/20th Street Court N and 20th Street N/Proposed Western Access. • 1,400 vehicles per day between 20th Street N/Proposed Western Access and 20th Street N/Golf Course Access (Eastern Access). • 1,700 vehicles per day between 20th Street N/Golf Course Access (Eastern Access) and 20th Street N/Manning Trail N. • 1,200 vehicles per day north of 20th Street N on Manning Trail N. • 900 vehicles per day south of 20th Street N on Manning Trail N. For the new access roads, the projected daily volumes are: • 337 vehicles per day for the access opposite 20t" Street Court N. • 230 vehicles per day for the proposed Western Access. • 845 vehicles per day for the Golf Course access (eastern access).

As with the LOS results, this suggest very good operations with little to no delays or waiting for approaching vehicles. Based on these operational results, turn lanes are not necessary at these intersections. Turn Treatment Warrant Evaluation For additional consideration of whether turn lanes are needed for this corridor, the MnDOT Access Management Manual was consulted. This document provides guidance for exclusive turn lanes and bypass lanes at public street connections in accordance with the KVnDOT800d Design Manual. The purpose of this document is to assist with access management for highways, which have different characteristics than 2OmStreet N.However, ifthe criteria for turn lanes isnot satisfied for ahighway, then itcan bcassumed turn lanes would not bewarranted for alocal road. Nine warrants are presented that account for site conditions and expected traffic to evaluate the need for turn lanes. Each warrant is examined separately below and the MnDOTguide's text is attached to this memorandum for reference, VVarrantl—PassinOLone/[UmbingLane 20'»Street N does not have a passing or climbing lane at any of the project intersections that would necessitate additional turning treatment. Warrant 2—Limited Sight Distance/Terrain The sight distance was evaluated on -site at each existing and proposed access. All turning movements appear to have sufficient sight distance, with no noticeable obstructions orsight issues. Warrant ]—Railroad Crossings The proposed site intersections do not have railroad crossing inthe vicinity that would require turn lanes. spvck[onuu/ting 5 of 6 20'�Street N Turn Lane Evaluation Warrant 4—Signalized Intersections The proposed site intersections will be controlled by stop signs on the side streets, not a traffic signal. Therefore, turn lane treatments are not necessary due tnthe type of intersection control. Warrant 5—Heavy-Vehicle Traffic Theexistingcountsindicatethetrucktraffica|ongZU*StreetNisbe|owI5vehidesperhourhoraU hours of the day. Additional truck traffic related to the proposed development is expected to be low and related to moving trucks' garbage trucks, and delivery trucks for the golf course. The relatively low truck traffic associated with these land uses does not warrant turn lanes. Warrant 6—School Entrances The proposed connection is not a school entrance that would necessitate turn lanes. Warrant 7—Crash History No correctable crashes have occurred at any of the project intersections along IOmStreet N within the last five years that would necessitate turn lane treatments. Warrant 8—Corridor Crash Experience No correctable crashes have occurred along 20'^ Street N corridor within the last five years, according to recorded crash data provided by MnDOT, The corridor does not have a crash experience that would necessitate system -wide treatment with turn lanes, Warrant 9—Vehicular Volume The table below provides the relevant volume criteria from Figure 3.40 of the K8nDOTAuide that, if satisfied' would warrant left turn treatment: I,500to2'999 Cross Street or Turn Lane Requirement Driveway ADT Left -turn lane warranted The relevant criteria from Figure 3.41 of the MnDOT guide is provided in the following table that J satisfied, would warrant right turn treatment: Highway AADT Cross Street or TnrnVmnaRj* "iraman+ Right -turn lane warranted Spock Consulting 6of6 20"^Street NTurn Lane Evaluation The roadway volume and cross street volume for each study intersection are presented in Table 2: Table 2 — Turn Lane Warrant 9 Evaluation Intersection � m 20 �reetN�O Street Court N m � ZO Street N/P/nposedWestern Access 201h Street N/Go|fCourse Access (Eastern Access) 20mStreet N/ManningTrail N (20`»Street Mainline) Manning Trail N/2O`^Street N (Manning Trail Mainline) Criteria Le Turn Lane Rig t Turn Lane Street Access Street Access 1,380 337 1'500 337 1,400 230 1,300 230 1,700 845 / 1,400 845 I,700 1,200 1,700 908 900 1'700 1,200 1'700 1,500— >1,5O0 > 1'500 >1OU 2,999 As shown, the criteria to satisfy this volume warrant is met by only one of the study intersections, 20w Street N/K4anning Trail N' when analyzing the intersection with 2U'^Street N as the mainline.

Dear Council Members, Royal Golf is offering us an unexpected opportunity to showcase The Tartan Park area with a development that will serve the whole community. The project's many amenities will be open to all city residents, including a world -class golf course. Geographically, Lake Elmo is located in a transition zone between the Eastern Forests and the Prairies to our west. Lake Elmo is a patch quilt of farms, pastures, houses and woods. In this diversity is its strength. As such, the unique nature of The Royal Golf Development is a good fit for Lake Elmo. To accomplish this, it is time for City Professionals and Policy Makers to address new developments such as this from a comprehensive perspective, striving to make decisions that best serve the whole city; that honor the past, serve the present and best prepare our community for the future. The potential economic benefits of the Royal Golf Development are incredible. Where a clinic, or a business headquarters can leave, the last golf course designed by a golf legend can never be moved. This opportunity offers us a partnership between the city's long history and the rich traditions of the world-wide Golf Community. By paying homage to one pays homage to both our city and golf's rich heritage. We need to support them by allowing them the tools to create a self-supporting golf development. If allowed to create a solid economic base for the golf course and development, we will serve each other for the long term. These benefits include: - Lake Elmo's stature as a community, • a high quality development that attracts top builders, • a much needed commercial investment in our city, • infrastructure that will best protect the area's water and wetlands, and - a system of recreation amenities (including trails) that protect and showcase the area's beautiful natural features. • All of these outdoor amenities will be public, open to all Lake Elmo resident& It is time for the Professionals and Policy Makers to make decisions thaU!t1ast, servethe present and best sustain the future_otour community.lt is time to focus on goals, not details. Please support the Royal Golf project. Respectfully.

January 17.2U17 KrisdnoHandt City Administrator Lake Bmo, MN RE�Classification and Compensation Final Report DearKnndna. David Drown Associates is pleased to provide the City of Lake Elmo with the completed Classification and Compensation Study. This Study provides an overview of the City's current compensation and classification system and our final report, including the methodology used to develop a new evaluation system, market comparability, compensation plan, and options for implementing anew compensation program. The Study represents athorough and comprehensive review of the Cit/sclassification and compensation system, The recommendations offered in this Study will increase the market competitiveness of the City's compensation program for its employees within the region marketplace and provide increased internal equity among positions. Implementation of these recommendations will help in recruiting new employees and retaining current employees needed to meet the needs of the City'nservice demands. I would like to thank the City of Lake Elmo staff who completed the Position Analysis Questionnaires and the staff for providing information and feedback throughout the process, David Drown Associates appreciates the privilege of serving the City of Lake Elmo and hope that you will contact us in the future for any further needs. Respectfully submitted, TooskaMo|vin Management Consultant ��pag� Tm'u*D CTUO The City of Lake Elmo, Minnesota, retained David Drown Associates to conduct a Classification and Compensation Study of the City's positions in the winter of 2016. The Study represents a comprehensive review of the components that affect an organization's compensation program — job descriptions, current compensation structure, the City's pay philosophy, regional market competitiveness of City salaries, the internal equity of salaries paid to comparatively valued City positions and ongoing maintenance and administration ufthe compensation system. In today'o madko¢doce, employees are the greatest asset. Awe|+dmnkJned compensation system aligns with an organization's goals and is in tune with current standards, An effective compensation system will help organizations attract and retain talented emp|oyaou. Au|asaiMoadon and compensation system provides the framework for determining how employees will be paid. The external market comparison is important because it ensures that the compensation plan inadequate toattract new employees and retain existing employees. If compensation levels fall below those in the regional marketplace: ~ the organization will experience adifficulty inhiring people * increased employee turnover as employees seeks jobs with other organizations that will pay the market rates for their skills and abilities. Turnover is to be expected, but excessive turnover has a serious impact on an organization's overall effectiveness. Advertising is a measurable component of turnover. Organizations will experience some turnover, but when it because excessive the organization faces serious challenges. Other non -measurable components of turnover include, current employees covering the void left by departing employees, training new employees and slower progress on meeting organizational goals. The City ofLake Elmo has experienced much turnover and has some difficulty in recruiting qualified employees, kisthe intent of this study to help retain employees and recruit highly trained and desirable employees. It is also the intent of this study toaddress compliance with pay equity, which has been an issue in the recent past, 2'Page ET ODOU OGY Our approach to compensation and classification studies is to focus on finding the bestsolution for our clients, This is accomplished by listening to clients to understand goals and objectives and building a compensation and classification process from those conversations, The following Study documents the comprehensive review and evaluation of the City's existing Classification and Compensation System, Aoomprehennive survey was developed and mmgo and benefit information was collected from comparable regional employers- The result of the job evaluation and the salary market data were used to create a salary structure with pay ranges. Our methodology included: 1. Our consultant met with the City Administrator and City Clerk Uzestablish aworking relationship and gain on understanding of the needs and expectations of the City. This also provided an opportunity to discuss the City's goals in reviewing the pay philosophy, review current policies and practices relating to the City's existing pay practices, and obtain data onthe programs and materials currently used. 2� The City Administrator communicated the purpose of this study and asked employees to complete the Position Analysis Questionnaire (PAQ) with reminders given at staff meetings. All managers and supervisors were provided with information on the purpose of the study along with the process. 3. Information was gathered from the City on current compensation structure, current bargaining unit contracts and existing job descriptions covering the positions included inthe study. 4. A comprehensive market analysis was conducted with selected cities within the region. 5. Information was gathered on minimum, maximum and actual wage information for all positions included in this study. 0, All employees received updated job descriptions and were encouraged to participate in the process by submitting any changes to their job descriptions and completing a PAQ. We received completed PAQs for all positions, except the Office Administrative Assistant position, which was vacant during this process. Within the last two weeks a person was hired into this position. Managers and supervisors reviewed and completed the PAQs to ensure completeness and accuracy. 7. Employees were sent new job descriptions and asked to address any concerns or disagreements with the City Administrator. The deadline for all appeals isThursday, January 19, 8. Using salary and benefit data supplied to the League of Minnesota Cities and additional information provided by cities, we were able to benchmark with comparable government organizations and provide trend lines with market average pay rates, market minimum pay rates and market maximum pay rates. 0, Guidelines for implementation and ongoing administration of the new compensation program were developed. These guidelines provide for annual adjustments to the salary schedule ensuring that the City's pay scale stays current with changing economic and market conditions. The guidelines also provide for annual salary adjustments based unemployee performance that meets orexceeds job expectations. 10. VVeare presenting our findings tothe City Council along with budget impacts. Based onthe discussion and direction provided by the City Council, we will continue to work with staff on the implementation of the Classification and Compensation study results. We will work with staff to complete pay equity reports for 2017, 11. Ongoing administration that the City should address is creating a pay philosophy that should be included in the employee handbook, In addition, Council should agree and create a policy on what to do with employees when they reach the max of their pay range, Generally, these employees will continue to receive a cost of living increase, but will not receive other increases unless there is a change in the job. COMMUNICATION WITH STAFF '�F��e FU10GSA I& -ECNO E 11 ATIO S Conducting a comprehensive study involves the analysis of substantial quantities of data collected from comparable employers and the City. We have evaluated the City's existing compensation program based on our analysis of the study data and the survey results, Using this information, we have developed recommendations for modification to the City of Lake Elmo compensation system. 1. Evaluation of the Current Compensation Program We conducted discussions with City personnel to review current compensation data which indicated that job positions are outdated or non-existent, hiring wages are not consistent and some employees have asked for their positions to be evaluated. Other findings indicate owage problem demonstrated by: " Concerns about the turnover rate and recruitment issues ° Difficulty hiring new personnel * Positions with comparable responsibilities requiring comparable education and experience are paid differendy, which is a problem for pay equity compliance Currently the City of Lake Elmo does not have a Pay Philosophy, A philosophy guides the design of a compensation system and answers key questions regarding pay strategy. It generally takes a comprehensive, long-term focus and explains the compensation program's goals and how the program supports the City's long -rage strategic goals. Without a pay philosophy, compensation decisions tend to be viewed from a short-term tactical standpoint apart from the organizadon'a overall goals. /\ pay philosophy should be developed that establishes acompensation program based on individual employee performance as a key feature of the pay philosophy. As part of this Study, it is recommended that the City consider these concepts inthe adoption ofeformal pay philosophy that will include: ° Providing fair and equitable rates ofpay Voemployees ^ Defining the City's market area and desired position compared to market; establishing a market position that is fiscally responsible with public resources. m Maintaining a compensation system that establishes an equitable "market rate" for each position and states the minimum wage and maximum rates that the City will pay individuals within aposition ° Maintaining a pay system that allows employees to progress through the pay range if their performance consistently meets expectations; ensuring that pay rates for existing employees are based on individual performance that meets or exceeds expectations and reflects changing economic conditions ° Developing pay administration policies and procedures that ensure their consistent application between departments a Ensuring that the compensation program is understandable to employees, managers, the City Council and the public 2. Peer Market Review The project team defined a peer market to include in this study. We looked at demographics, population, tax capacity, �iPage market rate and general fund. David Drown Associates used the peer market to analyze job titles, pay and wage ranges. 3.Defining and Evaluating Classification The project team determined that management would review the current job descriptions and make any recommendations. We reviewed current jobs to determine if work performed was essentially the same and if so the positions could be consolidated into one job o|ausifimadon, such an Administrative Assistant. Consolidating job ddeu. if practical, can be beneficial to the organization by helping to promote internal equity. With the completion of the job descriptions, we utilized our Job Evaluation Too[ (JET). The factors considered in determining the relative value mfclassifications are: ° Education and Experience ° Nature and impact ofDecision Process ° Nature and impact ofProblem Solving m Nature and impact ofRelationships ° Mental and Physical Effort • Elements ofWork Environment Job evaluation results are found onAppendix i 4.Develop Salary Schedule The process of developing a salary schedule draws substantially from the market data. We used the League of Minnesota Cities to provide most of the data. We also contacted surrounding city officials to provide information about the structure of their pay plans, the minimum, maximum and actual salary rates of positions, years to maximum, number of steps and information onadditional compensation ifrelevant. Our market analysis includes: Albertville Ham Lake Hugo Little Canada K8ah\omedi K8inno{rinUa Mound Mounds View Orono Rogers VadnainHeightu Victoria VVaoonia We were able to collect data from all communities, except the City of Minnetrista. They did not complete the League of MN Cities salary survey and we reached out to their City Administrator and HR staff three times 10receive the necessary data. The salary survey included 18 job positions. In addition to the current 18 position, we created a job description and did a market comparison for aPublic Works Lead, Four positions were not used inanalyzing salary data anthere was either inadequate information or inconsistent information provided. The jobs that were not included were Library Director, Library Assistant, 0fOcoAooist/P|anning and Fine Department Administrative Staff. In order to gain a competitive market analysis for the two library jobs, we searched the League of MN Cities salary data for cities of similar size with libraries and used Chisholm, International Falls, Cloquet, Kasson, Morris, Redwood Falls, Stewartville, Virginia and Windom. These two positions are unique as they report to the Library Board and receive any increases from them; however, they are paid by the City of Lake Elmo and must be reported in pay equity reports. A review ofthe Library Director found a market average of $28.69 and a market minimum of $21.12 and a market maximum of527.84.Areview ofthe Library Assistant found amarket average of $18.O3with amarket minimum u($10.01 and market maximum of $21 21 It should be noted that non -metro data can be lower by a significant amount. In order to gain a competitive market analysis for the Office Assistant/Planning, we looked at jobs of similar duties and found a more comparable job title of Permit Technician, In these communities this position generally reports to the Building Ufhuia|, Community Development Director or Planning Director. A review of this position found e market average salary of$24.8Qwith amarket minimum of $1A.24and omarket maximum of$24.0U.VVowould recommend atitle change to Permit Technician, as that is more descriptive of the duties performed, The PT Fire Administration position is unique. In most cases, this work is absorbed by the Administration Department, so we would recommend this job be treated like the Office Assistant with a few more qualifications. The need to respond to emergencies impacts some ofthe evaluation factors for this position. Areview ofthe salary ranges indicates that the salary ranges for most the City ofLake Elmo positions are above minimum salary ranges of comparable organizations. Only three job positions were below minimum: Finance Director, Planning Director and Fire Chief. The cost tomove these positions Unthe minimum is$18.158. In looking at the part-time positions, the Library Assistants are under the market. The cost to move them to the minimum market rate io$8.5UO. In looking at the market average for all positions, 52% of the jobs were above market average. The total costtomove all employees to market average is $96,683. In looking at the market average, it is important to review the median salary, which is the rate paid in the middle. This allows the consideration for tenure and experience. To give an example, the lowest percentiles may reflect salaries of those who are entry-level and the highest percentiles may reflect those who have many years nfexperience. Many ofthe current employees have been with the City less than four years, |nthe market, salary maximums are often viewed us the market rate for afully experienced employee with several years of service, Service time needed to reach maximum varies, but usually by 10 years almost all are at the maximum, /\small number ofmerit pay systems require elonger service time. Asummary nfthe market survey results can befound inAppendix i Ofthe 24employees incomparison 8uthe market data: ° 5employees are below the minimum market range for their position ° 5employees are over their max market range for their position 5.Create Compensation Plan A review of the compensation programs of the survey participants show a wide variety in step system, open range and other. David Drown Associates created both for the Project Team to review. Actep system includes annual steps for each position grade. The consultant assigned each poai\on to the appropriate salary grade in the salary schedule. The grade assignments can befound inAppendix Ill. Based on our proposed salary ranges, the City would currently have 8 employees that are not at their minimum step rate.

Implementation Employees can be placed onto the recommended wage schedule in several ways. To estimate implementation costs, we used current employee salaries supplied by the City for all departments. With the various options that are provided, they all include bringing the three positions (Fire Chief. Finance Director, and Planning Director) to the minimum oftheir salary range. Option 14UO%ofthe Market In Option 1 individuals whose current wage is below the minimum of the proposed range would be placed on the minimum range ofthe proposed range for their position, [fthe City'n21 full-time employees, 8employees are currently compensated below the minimum wage of the proposed wage scale for their position, The annual cost to bring these employees to the minimum of their proposed scale is an estimated $31,678. The actual cost to bring all employees to the market minimum would be $18.158.but this does not take into account the evaluation ofthe jobs and internal pay equity. Total Estimated Cost: $31.678 Option 2-S5%ofMarket Option 2creates awage schedule that is based on a 95% relationships to the market rather than the market average. In this scenario, those employees below the minimum of their proposed range would be placed on the first step of the proposed range for their position. Of the City's 24 employees 8 would be moved to their first step at an estimated cost of $31,678. Employees whose current wage falls within the proposed range would be placed within the proposed schedule onthe step closest 10their current range. Noemployee would receive adecrease inpay. This ensures all employees would at minimum receive a 2.2% increase. The average percent increase for all employees would be 4.4%. The total cost to move all employees to the next step or steps would cost an estimated $21,424. The total cost of this option would be about $53,102. This move would be the best option as it provides an above average annual increase and puts all employees into their next step. Total Estimated Cost: $53,1O2 Option 3'Move Employees toMarket Average Option 3 would allow all employees to be at or above market average. The cost of this would be $96,683, and would not include an increase for all employees, so an additional COLA would have to be included. Total Estimated Cost: more than $9G.G83 B. Current Title Changes and New Positions |tiorecommended tochange the title ofOffice AdminAssistant toDeputy City Clerk. This provides abetter job description ofthe job, allows another minute taker and issimilar Vzmany communities. In addition, it is recommended to add the PW Lead, as this allows growth within Public Works, promotes supervision of employees and provides more assistance 0othe Public Works Director. Finally, it is recommended to change the job title of Office Admin Assistant/Planning to Permit Technician, as this truly aligns with the function ofthe job. ��pnge B.Ongoing Administration After initial implementation is achieved, the City will need to develop administrative procedures that provide for annual salary adjustments based on market and economic conditions and adjustments that recognize individual performance. Employees will move through the wage schedule based on years of service and performance factors. An employee hired at the minimum wage na\o who maintains satisfactory performance will move from the minimum to the maximum in 8 yearn. |n2O18and subsequent years, itwill benecessary for the City toadjust the salary schedule based unthe cost ofliving and other factors such as recruitment and retention issues. The City can establish a guideline for determining annual base adjustments, The City could contact comparable jurisdictions to find out what percentage adjustment they are making to their pay scales as a second level of verification of the pay range adjustment. This would ensure that the City maintains marketability among comparable regional cities.
